I don't own RWBY. RWBY is an American anime-style web series and media franchise created by Monty Oum for Rooster Teeth.Chapter 1
In the infirmary of Beacon Academy,
There was a tall young man with fair skin and dark-blue eyes. His hair is short and blond, messily layered on his head with the right side of his hair nearing his right eye and the left side swept back. He was naked on his upper part of the body so these parts were visible. He is quite toned, having strong muscles in his arms, shoulders and upper chest.
His eyes had a bruise and he had some concussion on his head. His ribs had cracks and his legs hurt bad, like really bad. He was currently unconscious.
Even then his stature gave the hint of a weak boy. This boy was Jaune Arc, the sole heir of the Arc family. The Arcs are a family who had many heroes from themselves who rise against odds in times of peril and gained a victory for their sides. They have been granted the position of heroes by their followers and the people around them. Almost every Arc had been a hero and perished in the battle defending his people.
Their glorious past had a matter of great pride for every member of the Arc family. Jaune was similar in this respect, and he took things even further in this generation. He decided to become a hero like his ancestors were, as his father's story often showed off this matter. He revealed this to his parents, but they weren't so supportive of their only son being put in peril for what they called a foolish dream. But, he didn't want to give up. He wanted to be a hero, and he came to the conclusion that only after being a huntsman can he become a hero.
Being a huntsman mean graduating from one of the four prestigious academies in the four kingdoms. After intense thoughts, he decided on Beacon Academy to be his goal.
But, he hadn't received any training from his parents since he was young, but it wasn't enough for young Jaune to give up his dream. He decided to do something which was less than legal. He took the pocket money he saved for years and procured himself a well made almost original transcript about his performance in the past combat school.
After that, he sneaked into his family armory and picked up the family heirloom, the weapon of his great-great-grandfather, who used it in the Great War, called Crocea Mors. Crocea Mors is composed of a simple arming sword whose sheath unfolds into a heater shield for protection. Mors is composed of a simple arming sword whose sheath unfolds into a heater shield for protection.
He entered the Beacon Academy and managed to enter and qualify the entrance test to attend the Beacon Academy. He was very happy about entering the Academy. He had managed to get two good friends in the form of Ruby Rose and Pyrrha Nikos. He thought he may stay here, learn to fight and become a huntsman and later a hero like his ancestors in the future, but faith had another plan for him.
Beacon had a tradition of arranging the members in the trans of fours with a leader among them, to lead the group. The headmaster of the beacon, Professor Ozpin made him, the weakest huntsman of the Academy, the leader of the team JNPR, comprising of Jaune Arc, Pyrrha Nikos, Nora Valkyrie, and Lie Ren.
His life was going fine until we take the Combat training class into account. And this leads to his current situation.
In the infirmary, there was Jaune himself, Pyrrha his partner, Nora, and Ren. Along with them was Ruby Rose, his first friend in Beacon and her team RWBY, ie, Wiess Schnee, Blake Belladonna and Yang Xiao Long. They accompanied Ruby in her visit.
Jaune was slowly opening his eyes and he comes to his senses. His fingers moved while he turned around to see his friends around.
" Jaune, thank God, you are awake we were starting to get worried," Pyrrha said while holding her hands together and with a sweet smile. She wore her red hair in a waist-length ponytail, curled slightly into a loose ringlet. She also wore light-green eyeshadow around the far upper corners of her green eyes.
" Fearless leader, I knew you cannot stay down for a long time. I know just what can get you up and running in no time." Nora said loudly enough for even people at the corridor to hear him. She was a young woman with fair skin, short orange hair and turquoise eyes.
" What treatment are you talking about?" Jaune asked although he already had a feeling that it might be related to pancakes.
" Pancakes with strawberry and chocolate syrup to the rescue. It will also make the foul taste of medicines and hospital food in his mouth fade away and only sweet and tasty food would remain behind." She said with a very serious expression.
" Nora, we cannot feed him anything until Doctor give us the permission." The only member of the team who could control her came forward.
" I am happy to see you are awake and well on your way to recovery. " Ren said without much expression and feeling, though it didn't mean he didn't care. This is just the way he was. Ren was a young man with long black hair tied into a ponytail that ends midway down his back. There is a magenta streak on the left side of his hair. His eyes match the streak in his hair.
Jaune felt guilty at making his partner feel like that. He was looking around to see his other friends with the various expression of worry on them, and he rubbed his head in embarrassment at making them feel that way and said, " I am sorry for making you worry. Next time I will pay attention."
" How are you feeling, Jaune?" His fellow socially awkward friend, Ruby Rose asked him after she rushed to his side leaving petal of rose in the wake. She was a fair-skinned young girl with silver eyes and black, neck-length, choppy hair that graduates to dark red at the tips.
" I think I am feeling alright. I will be leaving this place soon enough." Jaune said to his friend.
" Really?" Ruby and Nora said equally delighted at his quick discharge.
" Are you sure Vomit boy? " Yang joined to inquire her sister's first friend. Yang was fair-skinned young woman with lilac eyes and bright golden hair worn loose that fades to pale gold at the tips with a cowlick sticking out at the top.
" Of course not." An ice-cold voice came from the behind the group. It was a pale-skinned young woman with pale blue eyes and long white hair pulled back into an off-center bun tail on the right side and pinned with an icicle-shaped tiara. A crooked scar runs vertically down her left eye and face.she was Weiss Schnee.
By her side was the final member of team RWBY, Blake. She is a fair-skinned young woman with long, wavy black hair, amber eyes.
" look at the dunce, he is still injured. His wounds aren't completely healed. He will have to stay here, for the night at the very least." Weiss said to the hopeful group who wanted his early discharge.
" No. Fearless leader cannot remain here. We must take him away. Or, he will suffer from that yukky patient food. " Nora shouted out horrified.
" Calm down, Nora. Those things aren't that bad. " Jaune tried to console his happy go, overenthusiastic team member.
" No, she is right. We have to rescue Jaune from this hell. Team RWBY and JNPR are going to help their friend from this. " Ruby enthusiastically declared it.
" Ruby, you are exaggerating things. Don't act like a kid." Weiss scolded her leader harshly while leveling a cold glare at her team leader.
" Cool yourself, we- ice- ess" she tried to pun and laugh at it on her own. Though others just massaged their head at her puns.
"You lot don't know what good humor really is. So Blake are you in the rescue mission?" Yang asked her silent hidden Faunus partner, Blake.
" I don't think this mission has even a slight chance of success. I have heard some rumors about the infirmary." She said while looking over the book she was earlier.
" Rumours?What rumors?"Weiss asked.
" It was two years ago, a new doctor joined the faculty of Beacon Academy. Since he took office he had managed to treat huntsmen and huntresses regardless of the degree of injury. He had a complete 100 percent success rate.
But, he is strict in the yhe discipline of the patients. No patient is allowed to escape or even leave a single step out of the infirmary. Or else..." She stopped here ominously.
" Oh? Stop being so dramatic and just say what you want to say already. " Yang yelled at her partner for stopping the story midway.
And someone beat her in completing her incomplete story," He catches them to break them and make sure they stay in their place until they are completely healed. "
An unknown voice made every huntsmen and Huntress in training vigilant and was ready for an attack.
They looked at the door to the infirmary and there stood a tall, muscular man with spiky black hair and brown eyes. He has thin facial hair around his mouth and on his cheeks. He had round spectacles rested on his nose.
He was the new doctor of the Beacon who joined the staff two years ago. As a doctor, he wears a white lab coat over his casual clothes.
" Doctor Alex," Jaune shouted out in dismay.
"He is the doctor." The others who didn't know his identity shouted.
" Yes. I am the head of the infirmary of Beacon Academy, Dr. Alexander Wild. Nice to meet all of you. You can call me Dr. Alex in short. " He introduced himself to the eight future huntsmen and huntresses.
" Good morning, Doc. I am Nora Valkyrie" the bubbly teen introduced herself first and then made it her job to introduced others
She first pointed at Ren," he is Lie Ren. He makes the best pancakes but he likes that yucky healthy food and vegetables. " She made a disgusted face at their mention.
She then turned towards the red-haired beautiful girl," She is the 'invincible girl' Pyrrha Nikos. She is really powerful. She had this weapon which can be a spear, rifle and a shield. "
Then at the team RWBY turn came," The one with ribbon is Blake, the blonde one is Yang, the stuck up lady is Weiss and the other one is also another awesome girl. She had a scythe which can turn into a sniper gun, she is Ruby Rose."
Weiss doesn't like this introduction of hers and glared at Nora while properly introducing herself in a way expected of an heiress like herself.
" Professor Alexander, I am Weiss Schnee, the member of team RWBY."
" Schnee, hmm. " He mumbled making Weiss frown thinking he would act differently knowing her identity as an heiress but his words make her shocked." You are that stuck up Jacques's daughter, aren't you?"
She was numbed. Many people considered her father that yet they don't dare to say it in front of her father or her in case, it reached her father's ears. He was pretty vindictive and won't like his insults and may harm the offender.
" Weiss, is your father a stuck up like you?" Yang asked her teammate.
Alex snorted on hearing her say that and retorted, "Stuck up. You think your friend here is stuck up then when you meet Jacques you would think he had a 100-meter long stick up his ass.
He is callous, arrogant, vindictive and overbearing. He has this thing about the reputation of his name. You lot better off never meeting that bastard ever." He ranted off about Jacques.
" You don't seem to like him much," Blake asked with a hint of appreciation in her eyes.
" Like. I disdain him. I was at the same party once. The way he showed off how great a man he was, made me puke. And I did it right on his clothes.
Hahahaha. You should have seen his face. It was so funny. That made up for all the things I endured at that high-end party. " Alex regaled his tale.
" Most don't reveal bad things about the father in front of their children." Pyrrha tried to comfort Weiss when he made fun of her father.
" Sorry, Weiss. I kind of forgot you were here. I am a frank guy. I say what I think without much thoughts, I don't care what others feel about my thoughts. That's the way I am." Alex told them while opening his arms showing how he never cared.
Yang liked it about their school Doctor and asked," So what trouble did you get yourself into?" She thought he may have great stories about his past and wanted to know more fun stuff.
Alex looked around to see all the students looking at him with not so hidden curiosity and he began to talk," You a know James Ironwood, the General of Atlas. "
" Yes. What about him ?" Weiss asked as she was getting even more interested in things like this.
" Well, it was that time when I and an old dusty crow decided that Jimmy was way too stubborn, so we made a plan. What we did was ..."
Before he could continue, someone interrupted them," What are you all doing here? You should be at your dust classes, not wasting your time here?"
There at the door appears to be a middle-aged woman that has very light-blonde hair tied back in a bun with a curl hanging down the right side of her face. Her eyes are bright green and she wears thin ovular glasses. She has dangling teal earrings that match the hanging pendant on her collar.
She wears a white long-sleeved, pleated top that has a wide keyhole neckline and gauntlet cuffs that flare in pleats at the wrist. Her lower body is covered by a black high-waisted pencil skirt with bronze buttons and black-brown stockings.
She wears black boots with bronze heels and a cape that is purple inside and black on the outside. The cut of the cape is stylized to end in flames and arrows, with a row of diamond-shaped bronze beads on the back. Above this line of beads appears anemblemof a tiara that is her personal symbol.
She had a riding crop on her hands. She was the combat teacher, along being the most fearsome teacher of Beacon whom no one dares to offend, she was Glynda Goodwitch.
" Professor Goodwitch." Ruby shrieked out in fright.
She swept her eyes through every student who skipped the class to visit Jaune. Everyone lowered their head to not meet her eyes. Nora even hid behind Ren in fright to avoid her fearsome gaze.
" And you? What are you doing? You should have made these students go and attend the class, Alex?" She directed the anger towards her fellow colleague, Alexander.
But Alexander didn't seem to care and was fingering his ears and cleaning it. Seeing his attics, she shouted," You are still as annoying as ever. "
He just blew off the wax from his ears away and replied," what you are calling annoying, is what most regard as cool. "
" Y..oooouuuu..." Glynda seethed unable to say anything at him, she turned her attention to the kids who watched their wordplay and shouted," What are you lot still doing here? Run along to your classes."
The students weren't as brave as their doctor and ran towards their Dust class to escape the range of the angry deputy headmistress.
Her attention turned towards the only patient, Jaune Arc who was sniggering at the things happening in the infirmary. " And you, Mr. Arc you should be sleeping now instead of laughing at something."
Jaune scrambled, pulled his blanket up and started to snore to show he had fallen asleep. " Snnzzz...nnnzz"
Neither Alex nor Glynda felt he had fallen asleep, but it was enough for Glynda to recover some of her cool and left the infirmary. But not before glaring at Alex. Leaving Alex and Jaune alone in the infirmary.
The clicking sounds of her heel faded away from the surrounding as she left the infirmary. When it can't be heard, Jaune pulled down the blanket and asked still scared of Glynda," Did she leave ?"
" Yes. She has left the infirmary area. You are safe now." Alex answered while he sat down on his chair and looked through the book with the diagram of the brain in the cover.
Jaune and Alex have known each other for quite some time as jaune encountered him in Vale for the first time and later visited the information regularly due to his injuries.
Alex asked not looking above the book," So Jaune what are you going to do?"
Jaune asked confused at the question," What do you mean Professor?"
" Jaune, I have got a Ph.D. in human Psychology too. I have seen how you are dissatisfied with your current state. So what are you going to do?" Alex once again asked.
" I don't know. I try to train but it doesn't seem to be working. For the past three weeks, No matter what I do I am thrashed around by Cardin. I don't know what to do.
I sometimes feel I don't deserve to be in my team. I don't deserve to be in Beacon. " Jaune trailed on.
" Oh, why is that?" This attracted his attention and he put down the book to focus solely on his current patient, Jaune.
" Pyrrha is the strongest in the year. She can defeat Grimm as easily as walking. Nora is very strong. While Ren he is fast and can defeat his opponent effectively with the least effort. They all are much stronger than me, yet Headmaster Ozpin made me the team leader. I think I don't deserve it. I think Ozpin has made a mistake.
Even Weiss the girl I like says that I am too weak. I don't deserve to be in Beacon, on my face." Jaune opened his heart to Alex.
He turned towards Alex to know his views and suggestions. Alex met his eyes and expressed what he really felt, " Ozpin had made a lot of wrong decision or irresponsible decisions in the past. "
This made Jaune lower his head thinking the doctor too felt he was wasting his time here.
But Alex hadn't completed his sentence," But his decision of making you a leader wasn't one of those.
Pyrrha is a good fighter, there is no fault in this sentence, but she isn't completely perfect. She isn't strong in her heart, Jaune. She lets others be ordered around. No order is a very strong word. She is led around by the opinion of others. Such a person can't be a good leader.
As for Nora, her actions in Beacon for the last few days is enough to show why she can't be one.
And lastly, Ren. He is a good candidate, but Nora is his weakness. He cannot deny her anything. I could see it in his eyes. So jaune is he a worthy replacement of yours. " Alex fired the question back at Jaune.
Meanwhile, Jaune was just laying on his bed quietly and absorbed everything that Alex had said.
"But I am still too weak? I don't deserve to be a student here. " Jaune said weakly.
" so train harder. You are still a student jaune. You came to this academy to learn to be huntsmen so learn it. You still have four years left. It is plenty of times for one to grow strong. You deserve to be in Beacon.
As for why, any student who can survive the trial, lead a group of completely unfamiliar people to defeat a powerful Grimm such as a death stalker deserves to be a student in beacon regardless of what anyone says.
And you, jaune, have something which can make you powerful if not one of the most powerful huntsmen alive." Alex tried to encourage him
" what is it, Doctor?" He asked excitedly.
" Your aura, Jaune. You have a great amount of aura for someone your age. If you can learn to control it and use it properly, you could defeat Cardin. " he explained.
" but how? I tried Pyrrha and Ren's method of control. I even tried meditating but it doesn't seem to work. So what should I do?" He shouted out in frustration.
Alex threw a ball of thread to Maine who scrambled around to catch it.
Alex then pulled a thread of about one meter and made his aura run through it. With his aura, the thread becomes as straight as a stick and when he swung it on the wall, a cut imprint appeared on it.
" when you can learn to flow your aura through the thread and can do as I did then I will help you in your training personally. But you have to show me that you are capable of.
I don't expect you to do exactly as I did. What you need to do is make the thread straight by passing your aura through a thread of ten centimeters length. Can you do it?" Alex asked.
Jaune was amazed at what the doctor did with a piece of thread and was excited. He thanked the doctor for the chance and rushed towards his dorm with the ball of thread to practice.
Alex smiled at his enthusiasm and didn't stop him. He had transferred some of his aura into jaune and heated his wounds, this is the power that Alexander was capable of.
Looking at the departing figure of Jaune, Alex said to himself, " Ozpin put his hope in the silver eyes, while I put it in the determination of humans which lead us forward through any difficulty. I hope you can achieve what we wastes couldn't. " he said "wastes" with great hatred.

This is my first RWBY story. If you have any criticism, it is highly appreciated. As for the pairing, it is up to the readers.Do vote.I like Jaune X Yang and Jaune X Pyrrha ones.This Doctor Alex is an OC character who will train Jaune to be powerful. As for how powerful, he can fight on equal grounds with Pyrrha for sometime by the time of the festival.
