Sacrificial Arc

It was a dark night and Vale was being attack by White Fang, Cinder Fall and her associates. The town was burning and she was planning to kill the 'Fall Maiden'. Jaune and Pyrrha looked to see what was going on and knew what had to be done. "I have to go and stop her." Said Pyrrha.

"Wait!" Said Jaune, she stopped. "Before you go, I just want one thing from you."

"What?" He grabbed her and kissed her passionately. Then he reached up to her neck and pinched it knocking her out. Then put her somewhere safe. "I'm sorry Pyr, before you comes me." With that he took off.


Meanwhile, Vale was turning to cinders and Cinder and her group were enjoying it. "Look At It!" She said, "Once Salem has returned all of Remnant Shall Be Ours!" Just then someone stepped in front of them. He was covered from head to toe in fireproof armor, he was prepared to fight and if he had to, die. (picture MCU Captain America's uniform but with a complete cowl, Jaune's colors and markings) "Arc? Is that you?" She said.

"I know you need to kill the 'Fall Maiden' but, to get to her." He placed his shield on his arm, "you'll have to kill me!"

"Emerald! Mercury! Neo! Kill Him!" She said, so the three went right at him and they fought. Jaune threw the shield at Emerald hitting her with such force it slammed her into a wall and almost cut her in half at the chest. He grabbed Mercury by the arm judo tossed him over his shoulder rolled over him dislocating his arm, flipping him over and breaking his shoulder blade. After letting him go, curb stomping him to the pavement.

Then he looked at Neo, "don't do this Neo." He said, "you're better than this." The 'candy girl' just looked at him, dropped her weapon and walked away. Cinder was pissed, how dare she leave? After all she'd done for her! She was about to attack her when all of the sudden Jaune's shield smacked her across the head. "This is between us Cinder!"

"By all means boyo," she said and started to flame up. "Let's Heat Things UP!" So the fight was on and they were going at it. He was blocking her flames with his shield as he rushed her and knocked her back. Then she took off and he went after her, fighting grimm and White Fang members along the way. As he was trying to get to her, he grabbed one of the members.

"WHERE IS SHE?" He screamed at him.

"The Tower!" He said, "said she was going to awaken Salem and turn everything to ash!" Jaune let the boy go and took off for the tower.


Meanwhile Cinder had set everything up she wanted the whole world to see her victory before it went up in flames. "Now there is no one tae stop me, Remnant Shall Be Ash!" She screamed, but like all bad guys, Cinder had celebrated too early. A shield smacked her across the head again and flew back to its owner.

"You forgot one little thing Cinder." He said, "I'm still breathing!" With that they fought with Remnant on the line.


Meanwhile, everyone was seeing this fight going on, Ironwood was trying to send his men out to help Jaune, Ozpin was sending other hunters, team RWB(Y) and team (J)N(P)R were rushing to the tower to try and help him as well. "WE NEED TO FIND PYRRHA!" Screamed Ruby.

"I'LL LOOK FOR HER!" Yelled Weiss. "YOU GUYS GO TO JAUNE!" So they continued on but before they even made it to the tower, they heard someone scream.

"NO!" It was Cinder, she fell from the top of the tower.

"THAT'S CINDER!" Said Blake, just then all the scrolls activated and they heard a voice struggling to breathe.

[To anyone listening, my name is Jaune Alexander Arc. I wanted to say a few things, goodbyes if you will. Before I die; to my family I love you all with all of my heart and I'm sorry.

Ruby, I want to thank you for helping me. Making me see that life does have hope all we have to do is reach out and grab it.

Weiss, I'm sorry for being a huge pain to you. I just wanted you to know that you are loved for just by being you. Not the heiress to the Schnee Dust fortune.

Blake, my family had always fought for fauni rights and they want to help you. Go to them and they will.

Yang, I have talk to Ironwood and backed your claims. Your have been cleared, or at least will be. Make sure everyone will be happy, of course I can count on you.

Nora, thanks for reminding me what it feels like to laugh again and to be happy. Make sure you keep that smile on your face. My death doesn't deserve your tears.

Ren, help Nora through this because I know she's crying over this. You will always be my brother, to the end and further.

Pyrrha, my love, I'm sorry but like I said 'me before you'. If you had died, I couldn't live with myself that's how much I love you. But, I'm a coward, I couldn't say the words until now. I have alway known you loved me but I've always thought you could do better than me. Now you don't me to hold you back anymore.

People of Remnant; remember my sacrifice don't let it be in vain.] With that, Jaune Arc; the hero of Remnant died with the tower blowing up.

"JAUNE!"


(Ten Minutes earlier)

Jaune and Cinder were fighting up a storm. "Why?" He asked as they clashed. "Why awaken Salem?"

"Why?" She said, "I'm a terrorist! I want tae rule all of Remnant!"

"You think she's going to let you?" He said, "That's a laugh! You know as well as I Salem doesn't share power."

"Then I'll be a goddess!" With that they were fighting both got in lethal blows on each other. Cinder had hit Jaune in the chest burning a hole in his heart and he was bleeding out. "I Win Hero!" She said, just then one of Salem's hands had touched Jaune's shield and it was thrown right at her. It hit her and knocked her off the tower, she screamed and turned to ash.

Then the Fire Goddess came fully out and looked at the Arc male. "Why?" He asked, she looked at him as if telling him her reasons. "I see, doesn't matter anyway now. I'm dying, I'll go with you after I say my goodbyes." She nodded, so he said his piece and made peace with his inner demons and nodded to Salem.

She took him in her arms and the entire tower blew up. With that, all of the Grimm died along with him, he saved the planet with his sacrifice.


Later, team SSSN had found Pyrrha and took her to the medic ward of the school what was left of it. After she awoke, she was told what happened and Jaune's final words were played to her and Yang. Their tears flowed they felt that they had failed not only Remnant but, the one person that meant the world to them, Jaune. "He shouldn't had to sacrifice himself to save us!" Cried Yang

"He saved Remnant," said Weiss with tears in her eyes. "It was not in vain."

"It Should've Been Me!" Cried Pyrrha.

"He loved you too much 'Boss Lady'," cried Nora as Ren hugged.

"Now what do we do?" Cried Ruby.

"Live," said Blake. "It's what he'd want." They agreed and that is what they were going to do.
