Singleplayer Chapter 1: And his game started, a rwby fanfic

(A/N: I realise I didn't make it clear but the narrator who tells you the Story ain't me. It was instead meant to be a character I acted out, mainly because I've never seen that before. Thought I put that down but apparently not, so I'm gonna change that and will upload a chapter later (Because it's mostly already written). If I wanna talk I'll use this type of writing but mostly I'll just be responding to reviews directly as 'I eat ass thrice a month' suggested. Finnally as you might of guessed I'll be revising the chapters slightly to make them fit better with the change and correct various issues. Why when I'm only two chapters in? Because I feel the first chapters are incredibly important. I personally wouldn't read a story of all I knew was a mediocre start. The update has more info.

Now that's outta the way I'll hand you over to the "narrator".)

??? POV

Oh hello there, glad to see you could make it. What do you mean I didn't give you an invite?

You know what doesn't matter now. I did something interesting, wanna see?

A RWBY fanfiction: Jaune Singleplayer

Chapter 1: And his game began

Jaune opened his eyes to see something strange. Now this had happened a lot recently ,the last of his sisters to leave home ,Rei, had always seemed to be in his face as he woke up. That or she hung something above his head, bloody squirrels. There was one time when ,somehow, she managed to hoist an entire large donkey up there. She was a little weird sometimes.

But, as I just mentioned she left home, yesterday in fact. Thankfully, she took the squirrels with her.

Most of Jaune's sisters had been at her going away party in fact, everyone except Bre who was off adventuring Oum knows where. You know I'm starting to see a pattern in these names.

Anyway, that meant that the weird blue rectangle above Jaune's head shouldn't have been from Rie, so how was it there?

'Maybe she left one last prank?' Jaune thought to himself 'But wouldn't I have seen it when I got into bed?' He paused for a moment thinking 'Wait how did I get into my bed last night?'.

For a moment Jaune just lay there mulling it over before shrugging and attempting to get up out of his bed. Only to see the blue, blank rectangle move with him ,always in the centre of his vision.

"Wait... what" Jaune said out loud before the rectangle yelled something back.

"VOICE RECOGNISED" it blurted out in a robotic voice, shaking as it did. This startled Jaune making him fall off his bed. CRASH.

"Oww" Jaune groaned as the voice continued "JAUNE ARC IDENTIFIED, INTIALISING STARTUP" and with that the blue rectangle zapped away leaving Jaune there bewildered and on his floor.

Just as Jaune started to clamber up onto his bed a voice sounded in his head.

"Hey there Jaune, welcome to the game, buddy" the voice sounded odd, a mix of human and something very distinct but Jaune just couldn't place it. Well he might of been able to if he wasn't freaking out.

"The... what!?" was Jaune's only response.

"Basically kid, your life is a video game, an RPG kinda deal" the voice explained

"Wait, is that my semblance!?" Jaune almost shouted at the top of his lungs.

"Jesus Jaune, little quieter man ,please" the voice grumbled back "And yeah, it is, so now I'm stuck being a tutorial bot" the voice complained. "So let's get this over with so I can go back to my proper job, kay kid."

"Um... sure" Jaune replied a bit nervous about there being a voice in his head. He wasn't Rie, he wasn't meant to have those.

"Okay, kid" the voice said as Jaune heard a clicking sound (You know one, like someone clicking a mouse). Almost immediately another blue window popped up this time with some writing on it.

You have been given 500 EXP

You have reached level 1

"There you go kiddo an entire level free of charge, most stuff will be displayed like this, even your menu" the voice announced "Oh yeah, kid say 'menu'"

"Menu" Jaune almost immediately said, starting to believe this might be real.

Just then the first window disappeared only to be replaced with a much larger one.

-MENU-

Profile

Skills

Map

Inventory

Options

Quests

"Right kiddo you've played video games before?" the voice said as Jaune nodded

"Cool then you know what all this does" the voice almost sounded relieved "Which means we can skip most of it" the voice cheered.

"However there are some things I have to show you, so go ahead and tap quests" the voice sighed again but Jaune was to excited to notice it.

All he could think about were the possibilities. What he could do now with this power he possessed. He felt genuinely hopeful for his future for the first time since he got rejected from Signal.

Jaune practically slammed his hand into the quests option. When he did a new window popped up, this time not replacing the old one. Just hovering in front of it.

It was a quest list with only one active quest on it.

"Hey weird voice" Jaune asked "What are points?"

"Kid if anyone's weird it's you, having a soul which spews out this semblance before your aura is even unlocked" the voice replied "And those points? Well why not do what the quest says check your profile"

So Jaune did, eager to find out more. He clicked the little X in the top right corner of the quest window and smashed the profile option immediately.

"Wow kid, you're really..." the voice started before saying "Equal, well apart from that luck man you're gonna get screwed over" the voice said, laughing slightly. "And apparently you took 5 damage just falling off your bed"

Honestly, Jaune was a bit disappointed and only sighed before saying "Well at least I know what points are".

"Hey kid, don't be like that, at least you got 5 points to spend" the voice said as he sorta consoled Jaune.

"Wait, what do you me-" The blond boy started only to be interrupted by a loud DING and a brand new window reading:

Finish the tutorial (100% complete)

-Rewards Awarded-

"See told you kid, 5 points all ya own" the voice said before letting out a small chuckle "Well see ya" it said before Jaune could put in a single word of thanks.

He heard a zapping noise before the quest completion window was replaced by a red window, which read:

TUTORIAL COMPLETE

WOULD YOU LIKE TO START THE MAIN GAME AND RETURN TO YOUR REALITY

--Y/N--

"Voice, what does it mean my reality?" The Arc boy asked confused.

"And I was just about to get back to my job" the voice muttered "You really think your parents wouldn't notice you're shouting earlier, kid?" the voice replied.

"Oh" said Jaune

"Kid, if you didn't realise that you may want to invest some points in INT or WIS"the 'tutorial bot' said before adding "Actually don't do that since you can get them naturally now, so it would be a waste" it paused before finishing with "Anyway, see ya later kiddo".

With that and a strange dinging sound the voice went silent (for good this time) and Jaune just lay there. This could be the start of something big and Jaune knew it, and yet he hesitated. He was excited and hopeful but also worried.

Jaune knew what type of power this ability could hold and he was scared he might screw up. Do something real bad.

Then again he didn't really have a choice.

So the boy tapped the yes button with his finger. The world blasted away and for the second time that day, Jaune Arc woke up.

And immediately slammed his head into a brick hanging above him. "Dammit Rie" Jaune groaned.

By experiencing great pain your VIT has risen by 1

'Well at least that's good' he sighed before collapsing back down into his bed. 'I'm gonna miss her being here'

-END-

So you like it? Like how I got his hopes up? I even gave the boy a free level!

Well you know what they say, when a game gives you a load of potions for free...

Wait you don't know that quote? Not you, him.

Well anyway here's his profile, for your convenience of course.
