''Huh what the hell Is that thi-, Oh right Grimm, you really need to stop drinking Jaune…'' Jaune says to himself rubbing his eyes looking at the colossal sized dragon Grimm looking down at him as if he was an insect in its gaze, most would simply accept death but Jaune only put his flask away before scratching his small beard with a bored look in his face. ''I don't own you money do I?'' Jaune drunkenly asks the Grimm making it blink at him before huffing a fiery breath at him, this would have killed most even trained huntsmen but much to the Grimm's surprise Jaune simply yawned. ''It was getting chilly out…'' Jaune mutters looking around what was left of Atlas after the second Grimm war, ruins and dust.
''So, got some Ale?'' Jaune asks looking back at the Grimm with a charming grin making it squint it's several eyes at him. ''No? fine let's just get this over with…'' Jaune mutters scratching the back of his head before looking at the Dragon only to find it several miles away quivering in fear. ''Okay?'' Jaune mutters taking out his flask and taking a sip from it once more and signing. ''Ah, I see why Qrow liked this so much.'' Jaune says walking along once more pushing his bag farther up his back once more.
Some of you may ask, why would such a powerful Grimm run at the sight of Jaune? Simple, he was the strongest being on remnant, most of his fights ended instantly with him winning in a single punch, he'd like to use weapons but most of them just break after a single attack so he scraped that Idea ages ago, and for the ruins of Atlas? Simple Jaune was the only living thing on the planet that wasn't a Grimm and spent his time traveling and drinking his regrets and sadness away, he may have super strength but not a heart made from steel. Either way Jaune was alone on a dead world and simply wished to die but couldn't, everything he challenged even Salem had ended the same a single punch had ended it, what would be the most fearsome Grimm to ever exist were simply bugs that needed crushed to him.
Now back to the story. ''Maybe I should visit outside the four kingdoms?'' Jaune asks himself sitting down on a cliff overlook what seemed to be an endless ocean. ''I've already been to all the kingdoms, the bottom of the ocean, the moon…'' Yes, Jaune had jumped to the moon once by accident and ended up getting bitched slapped back to remnant by some super Grimm that had taken the moon as its home, Jaune had jumped back up to fight it and swung once…and blew up the rest of the moon… yeah…
''Wonder if there's anymore liquor in Qrow's bar?'' Jaune mutters standing up and looking back at the cities ruined wall, it was a half day walk back so he might as well, Qrow's liquor was the best, well as good as could get in an apocalypse.
Jaune silently walked towards the walls of Atlas only to pause as a small stone hits his back making him turn to see a child standing in some sort of portal holding a carton drink looking at Jaune with his head tilted to the side. ''Was that you that threw the stone just now?'' Jaune asks pointing at the kid only for him to shake his head making Jaune smirk. ''Really now?'' Jaune asks causing the kid to scramble away out of sight prompting Jaune to follow after him and walk into the portal. ''C'mere you little br-'' Jaune didn't get the chance to finish suddenly finding himself getting hit by a car. ''Mind where you're going!'' Jaune shouts peeling the ruined car off of his standing form much to the people watching shock.
''Where'd that kid go?'' Jaune says looking around still drunk and not noticing something very important, people were alive. ''Kid where the hell did you go?!'' Jaune shouts walking across the road causing oncoming traffic to swerve out of the way and honk their horns at him. ''STOP RIGHT THERE!'' A female voice shouts making Jaune stop and turn his head to see a girl wearing a padded biker outfit leaning on her bike huffing having run out a breath. ''Need somethin' kid?'' Jaune asks before taking a swig from his flask. ''Under the name of the hero organization I'm placing you in custody!'' The girl shouts pointing her finger at him making him huff out a laugh. ''Really? Are..ss..t…me?'' Jaune says his voice getting slower as he notices his surroundings, people, buildings, life. ''Am I hung over?'' Jaune asks himself looking around at the buildings. ''Are you listening?!'' The girl shouts at him making him turn to her once more. ''Hm? Yeah.'' Jaune asks flatly still a bit shocked at where he found himself.
''I said I have to take you i-'' That was as far as the girl got as Jaune started to laugh making her Gulp and back away slightly. ''W-wait wait…'' Jaune says calming down. ''You arrest me? That's a joke right?'' Jaune asks looking the girl up and down. ''God damn…I'll let you put me away anytime…'' Jaune mutters much to the girls' embarrassment. ''Don't scope me out you perv!'' She shouts throwing a bag at him that he catches and examines. ''So you like a volunteer for the cops?'' Jaune asks making on looker's gasp. 'He doesn't know the Mumen rider?' Jaune repeatedly hears making him look around. ''SCRAM!'' Jaune shouts making the crowd disperse.
''Now then mind tellin' me where I am lady?'' Jaune asks looking around his hood still shrouding most of his face besides his mouth, even then Mumen rider could it his face was brutally scarred just by seeing the bottom of it. ''City Z.'' Mumen rider says making Jaune sigh. ''Right sure I know where that is…thanks anyways lady.'' Jaune mutters under his breath pushing past the girl as she stood in silence.
…
…
…
SMACK
''AGH!'' Mumen rider shouts feeling her ass being smacked making her jump in shock. ''Nice ass by the way!'' Jaune shouts walking away leaving a shocked Mumen rider behind.
''So this place is called City Z then?'' Jaune asks himself walking along and scratching his chin as he looked at the scenery. ''Bit on the poor side but it's better than Atlas…'' Jaune mutters as he walks only to stop realising something. ''Streets a bit empty?'' Jaune asked himself looking around only the sound of a distant Buzz being heard. ''Wait what?'' Jaune asks looking ahead to see a swarm of mosquitos heading towards him. ''Wot…'' Jaune says once more and blinking as they envelope him.
''Buzz off!'' Jaune shouts unintentionally making a pun that would make Yang be proud as he threw his hands around swatting the damned vampires, 'What the hell he ever do to them?' Jaune mutters only to pause seeing a flying girl who looked like some sort of Faunus. ''Well helllllo.'' Jaune draws out looking at her with an impressed grin. Besides the weird legs she was a 8/10 on the hotness scale. ''Who're you!'' A voice shouts making Jaune turn his head to see a robot?
'Sup my dude.'' Jaune says in his 'bro' voice with a wave of his hand to the robot who only blinks. ''You must leave now! You're in danger!'' The robot guy says before turning back to the girl in the sky as a large swarm of mosquito's swarmed her and she started to…moan? ''God that's just a turn off…'' Jaune mutters looking at the girl seemingly touching herself as the large appendage that Jaune wanted to call a tail grew in size.
''Nope…'' Jaune says looking back at the robot. ''So what's your name?'' Jaune asks ignoring the Mosquito girl making her blink in surprise. ''Genos.'' The now named robot guy says making Jaune nod. ''Jaune.'' Jaune says back making Genos raise a brow. ''My name is Jaune.'' Jaune once more says before looking up at the girl. ''So…how am I going to deal with you?'' Jaune mutters looking at the girl as she winks at him making him shiver.
''Alright…I'll just crush it…'' Jaune mutters only to stop as Genos fires fire blasts from his hands before advancing. For the next four minutes Jaune watched as the even fight suddenly became a beat down as The girl suddenly got the upper hand was diving in the strike the killing blow with her newly obtained stinger on her head. ''Best do somethin'.'' Jaune mutters him and huff and moves in a flash closing the gap and slapping the girl across the face.
And sending her rocketing into the sky as the clouds parted. ''Holy fuck…I held back to much…'' Jaune says watching as the girl shot threw the sky. ''Looks like my jobs done here.'' Jaune says walking away only to stop as Genos shouts getting his attention. ''W-wait! Please train me!'' He shouts making Jaune half turn towards him. ''How about no…'' Jaune says about to turn once more only to stop and sigh finding himself in a familiar situation. ''Alright, alright.'' Jaune mutters walking to the downed Cyborg and picking him up.
''Got a place to stay?'' Jaune asks after a few minutes of walking. ''Indeed, I have my mentor Dr kuseno!'' Genos says making Jaune raise a brow. ''Then why do y-'' Jaune asks only for Genos to speak over him. ''kuseno is well in his hundreds…'' Genos speaks with a sad tone making Jaune frown slightly, he was surprised that a man could live so long but to see your family and friends pass before you did was a pain he hoped only he felt. ''Mind pointing me in the right direction?'' Jaune asks making the mangled Cyborg nod.
After dropping off the Cyborg to some sort of lab Jaune had once again found himself wondering the streets of City Z looking around at the buildings and enjoying the fresh air. When suddenly he bumped into someone, quite literally actually making them fall onto the ground. ''Oh sorry didn't look where I was going.'' Jaune says offering a hand only to stop seeing it was that Mumen rider girl once again. ''Oh hey it's you.'' Jaune says only to get slapped in the face by Mumen rider. ''Thanks…'' Jaune mutters rubbing his cheek, it didn't' actually hurt but he rubbed it anyways habit after all.
''It's you!'' Mumen rider shouts making Jaune huff. ''Hit the guy then speak, never knew someone could be so bold.'' Jaune says with a smirk on his face as Mumen riders face reddens in anger and embarrassment. ''Still gonna arrest me copper?'' Jaune asks making Mumen rider sign. ''No, but I should for sexual harassment.'' Mumen rider mutters leaning on her bike. ''And why are you wearing that hood anyways? And that coat it's hot out.'' Mumen comments making Jaune chuckle. ''It's a fashion statement. ''Jaune says casually making Mumen rider raise a brow behind her goggles. ''So how about you hook me up with a place to stay?'' Jaune asks leaning forwards his large 6'4 form towering over Mumen riders 5'6
''Don't get so close!'' Mumen rider says making Jaune back off raising his hands. ''Alright, alright.'' Jaune says before scratching his chin and looking around once more. ''So you're new here?'' Mumen rider asks making Jaune nod. ''You could say that yeah.'' Jaune says looking back at Mumen rider. ''So gonna be a hero and hook me up with a place or let wittle ol' me freeze in the cold of the night?'' Jaune asks putting on cutesy voice at the end he used to talk to Zwei making Mumen rider blush and stifle a giggle. ''Fine I'll help you out until you get a place to stay…'' Mumen rider says giving up on arguing with hm. ''Well then the names Jaune.'' Jaune says putting out his gloved hand that Mumen rider takes and shakes. ''Mumen rider.'' Mumen replies making Jaune smirk. ''Going by the hero name huh?'' Jaune asks making her blush again. ''Shut it before I change my mind!'' Mumen says loudly.
''Alright jeez keep your voice down your causing a scene.'' Jaune says patting Mumen's helmet as she looks around at the group of people looking their way. ''R-right let's just go…'' Mumen says as she begins to walk towards her place causing Jaune to follow after her. ''So how come this place is called city Z?'' Jaune asks stretching his arms. ''The Cites are named from A to Z A being the richest and Z being the poorest.'' Mumen says a frown forming on her face. ''I'm assuming Z is where most bad things happen?'' Jaune asks making Mumen nod sadly. ''Sadly not a lot of Hero's stay around these parts and those that do usually just stay around to gloat about their power.'' Mumen says her head dropping.
''No worries, these people have you and that robot guy.'' Jaune says patting her back cheering her up slightly. ''Yeah I guess…and what robot guy?'' Mumen asks looking up at him making him shrug. ''Never mind.'' Jaune says looking up at the sky and placing his hands into his duster coats pockets. ''So…hero's...?'' Jaune asks still looking at the sky. ''W-well heroes are people who have passed the entry exam to the hero foundation with a C or higher, your grade determines your place amount the hero's from C-A and if your good enough you can be promoted to S rank.'' Mumen explains making Jaune nod. ''Where do I sign up?'' Jaune asks shocking Mumen slightly. ''O-oh umm…City A!'' Mumen says thinking for a moment of where the exam was held.
'Sort of like the hunter class…' Jaune says internally thinking of their ranking system from D to S, he was the only huntsman ever to achieve the rank X as his power grew he started outclassing everyone else and suddenly became a living weapon and the embodiment of strength. ''Umm where here!'' Mumen says snapping her fingers in front of Jaune's face making him blink and shake his head. ''Sorry lost in old thoughts.'' Jaune says with a smile as he looks down at Mumen. ''After you M'lady.'' Jaune says with a small bow making her blush slightly and walk in causing him to chuckle.
''Mind if I use the shower?'' Jaune asks getting a hum in response from Mumen making him walk around the house a few times to finally find the bathroom with the shower installed and quickly removed his duster and pulled down his hood showing his scarred face red eyes and partly white hair, most of his hair had turned white leaving small amounts of blond on his head. Jaune quickly removed his tank top and cargo pants along with his black military boots and his underwear and jumping into the shower allowing the hot water to flow over his dirty skin, it'd been what? Ten years since he had a shower? He'd enjoy it while it lasted.
Okay maybe he stayed in to long? No of cour- ''WHAT'S TAKING SO LONG JAUNE?!'' Mumen shouts in banging on the door. ''I'm enjoying my shower!'' Jaune shouts back out as he exits the shower. ''Well hurry u…p…'' Mumen shouts opening the door only to get an eyeful of a naked Jaune arc making her blush and steam to come out of her head. ''Like what you see?'' Jaune says flexing making Mumen slam the door shut. ''PUT SOMETHING ON!'' She shouts stomping away making Jaune laugh aloud. Yeah he was gonna enjoy it here…
