Ruby Rose seriously thinks that today is the worst of the best day of her life.
She was accepted by Beacon Academy two years early! It's like, a very great dream coming true! She's going to be a Huntress two years early, going to school with the same year as her big sister Yang, meeting new friends and finally learn on how to be the best Huntress!
At least, until everything exploded on her face. Literally.
She sigh sadly in depression as she sniffs, trying her best to hold back her tear—
"Miss Rose? What are you doing on the ground?"
Ruby quickly stood up from her fallen position and quickly saluting the familiar owner of the strict voice. "N-Nothing mam! J-J-Just, ah… you know… w-watching the cloud…?" She whimpers at the last sentence.
Glynda Goodwitch stares at the young girl with suspicious look before sighing and shaking her head, "… Right. You better run along now, Miss Rose. The orientation is going to begin soon and I suggest you to attend it."
She held her urge to give a salute, "Y-Yes mam!" But then she paused, "… Um, I-If I may ask, what are you doing all the way back here, Miss Goodwitch?" The said professor raises an eyebrow, "N-Not that you have to answer or anything—"
"Well," Surprisingly, she did answer. Though with a sigh, "I'm here to pick up a… Package, you can say. He's not really an energetic person, you see, and I doubt he's going to wake up anytime soon."
"Huh?" Ruby could only blink cutely.
Glynda ignored the student-to-be and quickly walk toward the landed bullhead, the only one remaining that, for some reason, didn't take off like its brethren. Ruby watch as the blond walked inside the plane and then—
Silence.
She would've leave for the orientation if not for the loud voice that came in the next second.
"YOU BETTER WAKE UP AND GET GOING OR I SWEAR I WILL DRAG YOU TO THE ORIENTATION MYSELF!"
Ruby watch in fascination and horror as loud sounds of banging and whipping (Not like that) could be heard from the bullhead. It didn't take long, though, as the sound stop and a very annoyed Glynda Goodwitch walked out of the plane with a floating p—
Is that a person?!
As Glynda walk closer the young student-to-be could identified that the floating thing, is, indeed, a person. He has a messy blond hair and seems to be wearing a black hoodie and a pair of casual blue jeans. The only thing stand out for him is his sword in his belt.
"Come ooon…" Ruby heard the boy moans out, "Let me sleep some little more Glynda…"
The red riding hood gasp as Glynda eye twitches in annoyance, "It's Miss Goodwitch for you."
"Politeness is suffocating."
"Your life is suffocating enough." The witch sighs, "Honestly, if your mother hadn't called me I would've left you in that plane." Then she noticed the stunned young girl, "You're still here Miss Rose?"
Now that snapped the young rose from her shocked state, "E-Eh?! W-Well I—"
"Stop." Glynda stopped the student-to-be, "Let's just go to the orientation together since I'm heading there myself." Then she looks at the floating youngman next to her, "Oh and this is Jaune Arc, he'll be participating in the orientation as well. So I hope you get along."
"Huh? I mean, yeah! Sure!" Finally! A chance to make a friend! "Hey there Jaune! My name's Ruby Rose! It's nice to meet you!" She smiles at the floating blond who has his head hung in mid-air.
The blond managed to raise his head to meet the silver eyes of Ruby, "Yo." Was the simple replied before slumping down again.
Glynda look at her ward, "That's the best reply you can produced?"
"Replying to introduction is troublesome."
"Your habit is troublesome for other, Jaune." Glynda sighs, "Well, come along Miss Rose. We don't want to be late for the orientation."
"O-Oh! Right!" And so they begin their journey, with the red riding hood staring at her 'first friend' with slight interest.

"It's like a biiiig slumber party!"
Ruby could only roll her eyes at her big sister—the one that had left her—and her antics, "I don't think dad would approve of all the boys though."
After arriving at the auditorium, she was ambushed by her traitorous sister and somehow managed to lost track of her new and only friend in Beacon. You think finding a floating person would be easy, but guess again.
Yang only replies with mischievous smiles, "I know I do." She growls at all the well build males that try to show off their muscles to attract the many females around them. It's a pretty good eye show for her, though it's not enough to interest her to ask them out.
Ruby would've reply in disgust if not the door to the great hall was blown open by a familiar professor with a very familiar floating individual behind her, though this time he appeared to be wearing a cocoon-like sleeping bag that covered most of his body.
"THIS is the place where students are supposed to sleep!" Glynda snapped at the floating individuals, ignoring the many wide eyes of the student-to-be. "And NOT on the hallway!"
"Oh. " Was Jaune simple answered, "Thanks for the-" He yawn, "-lift then, Glynda—"
"IT'S MISS GOODWITCH!"
The professor practically telekinesis threw the blond to the wall on the other side of the room, resulting in a loud 'crack', an 'ouch' from the victim of professor abused, and a surprised black haired girl that seems to be reading a book near the wall he was thrown at.
Glynda took a deep breath after that, "Just… Just stay here until morning." Then her eyes met with Ruby Rose who let out an 'eep', "Miss Rose, please make sure that Mr. Arc there wakes up in the morning, take a shower and eat breakfast. Use any mean necessary to do so. I even permit the use of weapon and any available ordinance."
"I'll be killed you know." Was the comment of the poor fool on the other side of the room.
As expected, Glynda ignored him. "I'm counting on you Miss Rose." With that she left the room without another words.
Silence.
"What…" Yang finally finds her voice, "What just happened?"
"JAUNE!"
Yang watch as her little sister sprint across the room toward the blond in the sleeping bag. Wait, Ruby knew him?!
With Jaune, he just look toward his 'new' friend and nods toward her. "Hey Ruby." He greeted with a very tired voice.
"Are you okay?!" Ruby crouch next to her new (and only) friend, "You're not hurt are you?!" She can't have her only friend to have amnesia! I-It won't do! They haven't done any of the 100 activities friend would do yet! And they haven't painted each other nails and talk about cute weapons yet!
"I'm fine." He yawns, "I'm used to being thrown around by Glynda since she love to show off her semblance." He look at her sleepily, "Being thrown into a stone wall is nothing new." He said nonchalantly.
She would've said something else if not for the other person to take her attention. "O-Oh! H-Hey, uhm, there! We meet again!" She (awkwardly) greeted the familiar Faunus.
The black hair girl with her sexy kimono raises an eyebrow at the (also) familiar girl, "Aren't you… the girl that exploded?"
"Uh, yeah!" She smiles awkwardly, come on Ruby! You can do it! "M-My name's Ruby… B-But you can call me crater…" She noticed that the black hair girl didn't even spare her anymore attention, "… face."
"Sure thing Crater Face."
"NOT YOU JAUNE!"
"Ruby!"
Ruby looks toward the noise to find her big sister jogging toward her which inspired her a great idea! "Hey Yang! Look here!" She motion toward the cocoon form of one Jaune Arc who is looking at her with a pure bored look, "This is my new friend Caterpie-I mean, Jaune Arc! Jaune, this is my sister Yang!"
"That's a bad reference." Jaune commented on the side.
Yang stops next to her sister and take a good look at the person who was thrown across the hallway by the professor. "Hey! Name's Yang Xiaou-Long! Nice to meet you!"
Jaune look up toward the sexy form of one Yang Xiaou-Long before letting out a respond. "Yo."
Silence.
"Wow," Yang chuckles, "That was the most anti-climactic and laziest respond I ever heard today."
"I know right?" Ruby joined in, "He said that to me too."
The Arc sighs as the sisters begin to chat about how lame his respond was like he's some kind of metapod or something. The blond decided to turn his body toward the wall, "Well…" He yawn again, "Xiaou-Long as you two are having fun." He commented half-heartedly.
Silence.
Silence again.
Wow the author love to use the words silence.
"HAH!" Yang kicks the Arc in the back 'accidentally' which made him hit the wall again. "Nice one!"
The Arc could only turn around and look at the sexy blond with an annoyed expression. Did she just kick him for no reason? Did she actually just did that without remorse?
"Oh no…" Ruby actually wailed in despair, "Another one…"
"Hey come on!" Yang, still oblivious of the annoyed look Jaune gave her grin at him, "Do another one!"
Jaune was about to ask if she's going to kick him again if he made another pun but a very annoyed voice interrupted them.
"I'm sorry, but I'm trying to read here so can you guys please go away?" The black hair girl in the kimono finally snapped. "Or at the very least be very quiet?"
"Woah there." Yang grin, "Chill out, we'll be quite, promise." She uses a zipper motion on her mouth, which earn an eye twitch from the girl.
"Will you people be quite?!" Once again, a loud voice butted in. "People are trying to sleep here and-YOU TWO AGAIN?!"
Yang who noticed the newcomer frowns in annoyance, "Oh it's you again, Ice Queen."
"It's Heiress to you!" The white hair newcomer retorted.
"Don't care. Both of them have sticks up in their butt."
"What did you say?!"
Ruby, being the kind girl she is, try to diffuse the situation, "G-Guys people are trying to sleep…"
"Oh now you're on my side?!"
"Ruby?! How could you?!"
"W-Wait I—"
The black hair girl could only sigh in deep annoyance and prays she stay sane and don't begin a killing spree. She also noticed that the 'Jaune guy' next to her seem to follow her plan of ignoring peace and just go to sleep. He's snoring lightly with his body facing the wall.
Sighing again, the girl could only grab the set of candles and blow it off with the hope that it will blow all of her worries away as well.
"-your problem with my sister?!"
"Your sister is a hazard to my health!"
"FOR OUM SAKE SHUT UP!"
XXX
Jaune is in heaven right now.
He's sleeping on the fluffiest bed he had ever slept on. He could feel the cool and comfortable wind blowing through him, the serene sound of nature, the feeling of the warm sun above him… It's heaven.
"…-une?"
Hmm… He thinks he heard something, is it just his imagination?
"… une? Jaune? JAUNE!"
And then his peaceful slumber is broken.
With a groan Jaune turn his head to look at the person who had committed sacrilege against him—which, to his not surprised, is Ruby, standing above him still in her PJ's with a large red scythe behind her.
Wait.
"What's with the weapon?" The lazy Arc asked.
"Oh, this?" Ruby smile sheepishly. "I-It's nothing… I mean, I'm not going to wake you up with it or anything…" She look around everywhere except in the direction of his eyes.
Oh wow, that's so convincing. "… Right. What do you want? I'm still sleepy here."
"What?" Ruby blink several times before whatever her business with him hit her back in the head, "Oh right! Well, Miss Goodwitch wants me to wake you up and its morning so… Yeah."
Oh right. The sadist professor did order that to his new friend. Now, as a person he can do whatever he want with his life, and that mean he can ignore his new friend good effort of getting the good side of her soon-to-be professor and get back to sleep, or be a nice guy and actually wake up.
Unfortunately for Rub, he's too lazy to even weight about the choices in this time of the morning.
"Wake me up in about twenty minutes or so." The blond went back to his sanctuary in the form of sleeping bag.
"E-Eh?! Isn't supposed to be five minutes?!"
"Five minute is to soon…"
"Hold up there buster." Yang, the ever sexy good sister quickly butted in. She walks toward Jaune and actually picks up his sleeping bag with him in it. "Stop making my sister life so troublesome would you? I mean, all you have to do is wake up and take a shower or something."
"Waking up is a drag…"
Yang shot the lazy guy an amused smirk, "Is that so? Then how about I throw you to the girls bathroom so you can fend for yourself?"
Girls bathroom? Hmm… Now that's a pickle threat if he ever heard one. Like, he doesn't want to think about it and go back to sleep to let Yang do whatever it is she's going to do with him, but as a male he knew deep down the severity of females wrath.
Or more specifically female hunter wrath.
So he only has two options: Get back to sleep, with the potential of Yang actually goes along with her threat and the high probability of Ruby bothering him again, or just wake up, take a quick shower and sleep during breakfast.
"… Just put me down and I'll—" He yawn, "Take a shower or something…"
Yang shrugs, "Good enough for me." She let go of the male as his body drop down to the floor in a loud thud. Both the sisters winced. "Oh, sorry about that…"
"A-Are you okay?" Ruby asked her new and only current friend in Beacon that in any way is not part of Yang clique. And who said Ruby Rose is a social awkward that only talk to her weapon? Pfft!
"I'll be fine." In an awesomely non-lazy attempt the blond actually position himself like a worm, "I'll see you girls in the cafeteria… or something." He yawn once again before actually crawling like a worm toward the public shower.
…
…
…
"Well," Yang actually look very amused at the sight, "That actually happened. I wonder why he didn't walk? I mean, it's less troublesome than crawling like that."
Ruby sweatdrop at her friend antic, "Um… Maybe because he's too lazy to open the sleeping bag zipper?" She laughs awkwardly at her own answer.
…
…
That could actually be it, both sisters agreed mentally.

After Jaune take a quick, zombie-like shower, dress himself at a snail pace in a simple blue jean and black hoodie and drag himself with all his willpower and the thought of taking some quick nap during breakfast to actually move, the young Arc once again met with an unfortunate luck to his simple plan in the locker room.
"Oh, it's you. The boy that Miss Goodwitch threw at a wall."
Jaune eye twitch slightly at the sight of the loud, cute heiress girl from last night and an unfamiliar red head not far in front of him. Maybe if he ignores her they'll let him go?
"Don't ignore me!"
That's a nope alright. "… What do you want?"
The heiress, or Weiss Schnee she is known, snort. "From you? Nothing at all."
"Ok." Taking the cue the blond quickly tries to power walk his way from this event , fuel by his want to take a quick nap.
"Wha—?! Did you just ignore me!?"
Then the hell do you want? Fortunately Jaune isn't pissed off enough to actually blur it out. Glynda is an exception, of course, since her anger amused him. "… So what do you want?"
Weiss would've retort in her usualy haugty manner if the red head did not intervene. "Now now Weiss, he doesn't seem to want to converse so let's just get our stuff and go eats breakfast?" She smiles, though Jaune noticed it's a bit forced.
"Hmph, fine. Conversing with you would've waste my time anyway." With that one last snarky remark she turn heel and went past the blond to… somewhere.
The red head bow her head slightly, "I'm sorry about her. She doesn't seem to have that much of a good mood after last night." Then she remembers something, "Ah, my name is Pyrrha Nikos and I hope we can be good school mate." She offers him a hand and a fake smile.
Pyrrha Nikos? He think one of his sister back home mention a name like that somewhere, but he didn't actually care so… "Jaune Arc, nice to meet you and thanks for the help." He shook her hand and then quickly leaves the red head, with the lasting he saw is a surprised, relief face. He wonders why?
Ah who cares? He got a nap to go after.
XXX
After an uneventful non-nap breakfast with Ruby (That kept waking him) and her busty sister (Who keep cracking puns for some reason. How punny.), he somehow ended up flying through the air for some reason. How the hell did he ended up here?
He remember being drag by Ruby and Yang to some cliff or something, and then the headmaster start some speech or something and he fell asleep since it's not really that interesting (Or even inspirational). But not that he can judge fully since he fell asleep 5 seconds into the words.
Now… What the hell is he supposed to do?
Jaune twist his body so he can actually see in front of him. There are a lot of trees, and there's this big one that seem to be coming closer to his face—
Huh. Well, shit.
*thud*
"Ouch."
So this is what being a tree hugger is like. How interesting.
Meanwhile back at Beacon…
"Glynda, are you sure your nephew will be fine?" Ozpin asks his adjutant next to him, "His lazy tendency is a bit… Worrying."
Glynda only snort in amusement, "The only danger he'll face is the length it'll take him to reach the relic and hike back here. No Grimm in this forest is strong enough to kill him, and even with his chronic laziness Jaune won't just stand there and be killed like that." She looks at the screen of her scroll, though her face is solemn. "He promised his father and sister he won't die until the Judgment of Arcadia."
That statement seems to even make Ozpin look serious. "So… He really made up his mind?"
"Yes." Glynda answered, "When his sisters died he took up their entire Armiger Armaments and his father Crocea Mors. He now has six in his arsenal."
"Auntie… If anything happened to me, please take care of my brother for me. Nurture him like your own. Teach him how to be strong, and how to be a hero he always wanted. I… It's the least I can do for the burden he will face. Please accept this selfish request from me."
She remembers her smile. That sad and grievant smile filled with pain and anxiety for her family. It is the expression of a person that understood the destiny that awaits her family, the painful truth that she can't do anything about.
"I see. So that means the Judgment is imminent?"
"Yes, and even if he doesn't look like it he intend to find the rest. It is what he promised to herafter all."
Ozpin look up to the sky while sipping his coffee. "So… it all comes to this. Judgment of Arcadia… Our final salvation."
XXX
You know, being a tree hugger is actually a pretty find idea. You know, getting tangled with tree vines and sleeping while in the air is a fine idea for him.
"… Are you okay up there?"
Jaune twitch at the voice. He moves his body around so that the vein can move his position enough he can see who's actually calling him this time.
It's a black hair, magenta eyes in green he never seen before. Oh, and he also has a weird streak of magenta hair on the left side of his face, how unique. "Yo." Jaune greeted while waving his hand, "I'm just hanging around. Nothing much." And taking a nap.
"… Is that supposed to be a pun?"
"Depend. Is it punny enough?"
"…"
"Wow. Tough crowd."
The pretty boy sighs, "Look, do you need help getting down?"
Did he? Not really. But he's too lazy to draw his sword so… "Yes I do."
The male nodded his head and took out a gun, aim at the vein above him and fire. The loud sound spread across the forest, while Jaune body face off against gravity, and lost face first into the dirt in a loud thud.
"Ouch."
"You okay?"
"I'll live." Jaune push himself into a standing position before yawning. "Name's Jaune Arc. Nice to meet you." He offers his hand in a lazy fashion, which the guy took.
"Lie Ren. Likewise, partner."
"Partner?"
"You don't know? The principal explain it before he launched us off."
"… I… Fell asleep?"
Lie Ren eye twitch. How the hell did he even fell asleep there? "Well," He sighs. Oh dear Oum this is going to be a looooong day. "Let me explain…"
XXX
Ruby, like Lie Ren, is having her own situated 'longest day' ever. First of all they were thrown from a cliff and must be partnered with the first person they have eye contact with—In other words it's a random encounter to have your 4 years long partner. And Ruby Rose don't do random partner! She-She can't have that! Not with her low level social skill (That is not socially awkward level. Nope). But of course luck would have her of all people partnered with the crabby girl with a… A stick up her butt! Yeah!
And after a long and arduous journey together (and Weiss still doesn't want to call them partners yet!) through the forest and atop of a Nevermore, they somehow arrived at the site of the so called relics and the place where her sister and her new, book reading partners wait.
And then the Nevermore came back.
But wait! This is the chance she can show that crabby Weiss that she's one of the best partner she can have!
"I got this!" Declared Ruby as she semblance away toward the giant flying Grimm with the intention of killing it fast.
"Ruby wait!"
Though the young Reaper is skilled in combat she is, suffice to say not strong and/or experienced enough yet to handle an ancient level Nevermore by herself. She was taken off guard when the Nevermore launch its feathers toward her at the faster speed she had ever seen Grimm could launch, taking her off guard as one of them actually stab her hood. "Ah!" The young Rose tries to retreat but the feather prevent her to.
"RUBY!' Yang dash toward her sister but stop midway when a barrage of feathers stab themselves in front of her. "NO!"
Ruby can only watch as another barrage flew toward her as memory of her life flashes before her eyes. Her dad, Yang, Uncle Qrow… and then…
Mom…
She closed her eyes waiting for her demise.
Yet it never came.
When she slowly open her eyes she was met with the sight of a Knight—dutifully stood in harm way never moving an inch holding what appeared to be a massive, oval shaped shield. Slowly her knight savior turns toward her in a slow but (according to her) very cool way only to reveal a very familiar face.
That of boredom.
"You okay?" Jaune Arc asked which Ruby could only nods as her respond. "Good. We should run before it makes another barrage." He walks toward the feather that stabbed her hood and pulls it out like it weights nothing at all.
And where did that large oval shaped shield came from? When they reach the landing path he only carried around his sword.
"LOOK OUT BELOOOW!"
Both Ruby and Jaune look above them to see a flying human heading toward them carrying what appeared to be giant hammer. Huh. You don't see that every day.
She fell directly between the two of them in a loud explosion of dust. Soon after a familiar red head burst through the forest and literally jump in their direction, go into a roll and come into a stop. "H-Hi there." She said awkwardly while waving her hand. "I… Listen I brought us some company so we might want to escape while he—" A large stomping noise stop her. "Nevermind he's here."
A large scorpion Grimm suddenly bulldozes its way through the forest. Its massive body marking it as the same level as the Nevermore which, for the record, is flying around toward them.
Shit.
"Jaune! I got the relics!" Ren informed while waving around a white rook. "We can go now!"
"Renny?!" The human catapult suddenly sit up, her eyes shine. "RENNY!" She shot toward Ren and tackle him to the ground.
"Ugh! … Hello Nora… I got you your relic too…"
"I missed you!"
"Oh great, everyone's here! Now we can all die together!" Yang said sarcastically getting into combat form as the giant scorpion and bird are coming toward them.
Jaune sighs tiredly. This is really getting out of hand; all he wanted is just to get some sleep. Is it a too much goal to make? Must he lower the standard of his laziness?
"Everyone get ready!" Weiss commanded as they all—except Jaune—prepare themselves for the upcoming attack. "If we can just knock them out long enough we can escape with the relic!"
Hmm… Doesn't that mean they still need to run like their life depends on it back to Beacon? That's… That is unacceptable.
Everyone went stiff and wide eyes when Jaune Arc, yes that lazy bastard, suddenly start to walk forward in a calm and collected manners befitting of a cocky bastard Huntsman that usually knew his life is not in danger whatsoever. Both Yang and Ruby are testimony on such things via observing their uncle.
"Wha-!? Jaune what are you doing?!"
"Oi Arc!"
"What the hell are you doing you idiot?!"
Jaune ignored their word and continue his march. He really, REALLY doesn't want to do this, but the fact that he doesn't want to run like his life depends on it is much more work than what he's about to do blur his unwanted desire. With another sigh he steel himself as he calls forth what is within.
His (new and old) companions paused when suddenly the shield Jaune held glow and disappear in a flash of light. Jaune extend both of his hands to the side and another lights appear—the lights slowly took shaped into what appeared to be a pair of falchions on both of his hands. Even from a distance they all could see the well-made craftsmanship of the swords—one of them being white in color and the other made of pure black.
A single question quickly pop on all their heads: Where the hell did he get that from?
Jaune pull his hands back and throw the pair of swords into the air. They spins cutting through the air toward the Nevermore. From the distance of the throw it's obvious that even if the swords hit the Grimm it wouldn't even pierce the thick feathers.
At least that's what everyone honed instinct thought until Jaune suddenly disappear in a flash of white and reappear in the position of the sword. The blond grab the swords, dematerialize them and then a new weapon is upon his hand. It's massive in size; heavy metal head and the long shaft clearly mark the weapon as a heavy war mace with the same size as Nora's warhammer. The blond raise the weapon above his head and strike down at the Grimm, with a loud crunching sound the large bird fell to the ground. Hard.
Completing his objective Jaune twist his body 360 in mid-air before throwing the large mace toward the down Nevermore. The loud screeching sound and cloud of dust when the weapon hit marks its heavy impact, and Jaune once again disappear and teleported toward the down Nevermore, dematerialize his weapon and now a black, greatsword appear on his hand which he use to chop the head of the large bird in one swift motion.
Not finish, the Arc throws his sword into the air once again and teleported mid-air, at a perfect vantage point of the large Deathstalker stalking toward him. He changes his weapon back to the pair of falchions and threw them toward the Deathstalker. The swords bounce off the thick skin of the creature torso, but that's what Jaune wanted. He teleported to the swords, dematerialize them and now in his hand is a large, crimson battle axe with the same size as the mace. He stand on the creature body and with one, swift 360 spin he cut the thick Deathstalker stinger in two. The creature roars in pain as it trash around.
Jaune dematerialize the axe and this time unsheathe the blade on his waist. He raise it up above his head and brought it down edge first at the sword pierce the thick skin of the Deathstalker, but not by much. The blond raise his hand and materialize the large mace and strike down on the pommel of his sword using it like a hammer would to a nail. The creature scream in agony as the blade pierced through its skin to where its head is at, it trash around again for several time until with Jaune holding to his sword for dear life until the creature slowly calm down and drop to the ground, its body twitching for a bit before stopping.
The Arc scion sighs in relief as he pull out his sword, slash away all the Grimm blood and unsheathe it. He hope off the carcass and walk toward his companions, who are all looking at him agape.
… "What?"
It was Ruby who first reacted.
"HOW DID YOU DO THAT?!" She gushed forward and invades Jaune privacy. "IT WAS SO COOL! OH! OH! IS IT A SEMBLANCE?! HOW MANY WEAPONS DO YOU HAVE?!"
Jaune just sighs and pat the girl on the head. "Yeah. Semblance. Six for now."
"Huh." Yang finally snaps out of the shellshocked. "No wonder he gets in here. The guy's powerful." Blake nodded her head, Ren remain indifferent but clearly surprised and impressed, Pyrrha look very impressed and Nora… Well, she joins Ruby bothering Jaune about his, as she put it, superawesomeepiccoolskill!. While Wess remains catatonic.
It didn't last long though. Few minutes later Jaune Arc fell to the ground, once again with a quite words of 'ouch', taking them all by surprised. "… Sorry. Once I used them I can't move."
That's all he needed to say.
It was Yang this time who first responded by sighing. "… That's so uncool bro. Come on then Lazy Bum," She walks toward Jaune, picks him up and carries him like a potato sack on her shoulder. "Up you go."
"Thanks."
"You owe me lunch."
"I—" He yawn, "Take it back… Zzz…"
Everyone could only sweatdrop at Jaune sleeping form. How the hell can he even sleep in a position like that is anyone guest.
But one thing is clear though: Beacon's day is going to be awesome as hell.
END
The Plot:
Jaune Arc came from a lineage of Heroes since time memorial, and these heroes possess several almighty weapons, twelve of them, that are called the 'Armigers Armaments' that can only be used by a worthy Arc descendant. These weapons, imbued with the thoughts, hearts and even a piece of soul from the previous wielder gave the Arc family power. For example, they can store these 'weapons' within their soul, and even teleport to the place where that weapon is at. Jaune is a special case where as he's chosen as the 'One who bring light', the final hero that will end the world darkness.
However, to do that Jaune need to collect all twelve of Armigers and perform the ceremony called 'Judgment of Arcadia'. Where Jaune must go to the long lost land of Arcadia, where the first Arc was born and end the darkness of the world forevermore. The Arc Manor only has six Armigers out of twelve, which are wield by five of Jaune sisters and his father. But disaster struck and his sisters and father fell to the darkness trying to protect him, which is why Jaune held [Six Armigers] and are trying to find the rest. He also go to Beacon to protect the remaining Arc family, two of his sisters and his mother.
The ending is that Jaune had somehow managed to collect all of his Armigers (After the fall of Beacon) and headed to Arcadia, now known as the Land of Grimm. The rituals involve him summoning the dead spirits of his bloodline greatest heroes and first wielder of the Armigers, and to let them become one with each other to be the light that shine upon the land. He succeeded, and managed to kill Salem and even wiped out the majority of Grimm, however he dies in the process. It is come to no surprise that heroes will sacrifice their lives to protect the people. It is what made them 'heroes'.
The Change:
Although powerful, Jaune body can't cope with carrying six Armigers at once, and that's why he tends to sleep and rest more. It'll be better in time, but currently he's too weak to even use his bloodline final skill. And he's also a lazy bastard, so yeah.
The team placement didn't really change, except for the fact that Jaune is partnered with Lie Ren, and Nora with Pyrrha. Just making soft changer here and there nothing to serious.
Pairing? I don't know. Not Arkos that's for sure, too many of those out there.
