So welcome to the first fanfic I've ever actually put to words, I actually had a lot of fun as this one was developing in my head. So the summery should have given away the twist of the story if you can call it that but I haven't decided on the final paring for our lovable blonde but I will say that guys aren't in the pool of picks, but I will hear out and listen to anybodies ideas :3
RWBY an its characters don't belong to me, all credit goes to Monty(RIP) and Roaster Teeth
Pyrrha smiled smiled from her place at the door way leading back inside from the roof, "Your definitely starting to make more leaps and bounds with our training lately Jaune," she stopped to giggle slightly at the sprawled out panting form of Jaune Arc on the roof top. "though we still need to work on improving your stamina." She said smiling brightly at him earning a small groan from said boy.
"Ha ha Pyrrha...very funny..." Jaune replied waiving his sword in the air at her before it fell back to the ground with a light clang.
"You sure you don't need help getting back to the room Jaune?" she asked with a light concern for her blonde leader.
"Yeah Pyr, I'll be down in a few... Just gotta catch my breath... And maybe stare at the stars for a bit..." he stated with a goofy smile. Hearing an affirmative "Ok" from his partner and the soft closing of the door Jaune gave out a light sigh and sat up. His breathing having calmed he gave a light smile to the door where his partner had left. "It hurts every time she does that..." he stated with a light chuckle and sheathing Crocea Mors laying it on his shoulder as he stared up to the starry night sky. He gently held his hand up to the stars and sighed. "How much longer can I do this to them...?" he asked softly as his hand gave a soft white glow before gently shifting and forming a much more feminine and small hand. As he contemplated his hand a soft clicking of the door could be heard as it began to open. Letting his hand return to normal he looked to the door.
"Jaune?" A soft British accent came from the slowly cracking door that brought a smile to the young Arc's face. "Are you out here?" Velvet Scarlatina asked softly as she poked her head through the door out to the rooftop.
Said boy leaned back and smirked over to the faunus girl. "Over here Bunbun." He said as he stood up delighting in the eye roll and small smile he received from the approaching Velvet at her given nickname.
"How are you feeling tonight?" She asked softly, while not her same timid voice she had around most others there was still and air of shyness that Jaune had always found cute for as long as he had known the girl.
"I'm fine, come on." He said as he took her hand. "Let's head to our usual spot and where we can talk freely. Last thing we need is Cardin listening in on us." He said chuckling and gaining a nod from Velvet. Slowly he led the way off the roof after sending a quick message to his team that he was taking a walk a round the school to clear his head a bit. After a short time the two reached a small balcony that overlooked the back of the school. It was rarely used at this time of night and would allow them the privacy that they needed.
When they reached the balcony Velvet stopped pulling her hand away from Jaune and looking up to him softly. "Janne... Please can you drop the disguise...?" She asked with a slightly timid look on her face.
With a soft sigh and a chuckle Jaune smiled to the bunny Faunus and nodded. "Okay Bunbun, but only cause your so damn cute when your shy like that." he stated with a smirk at the slight playful glare he received from Velvet for his comment. Taking off the glove on his left hand showed a small mark on the back of his hand, the same symbol on Crocea Mors in a silvered color rather then the usual gold. Bring his aura to that mark caused it go glow with a golden light before spreading out around his entire body.
Velvet watched with a smile as Jaune's hair grew out past his shoulders and he slowly started to lose his height dropping from his usual 6'1" down to a still slightly tall 5'9". Holding up his arms they shrank in size losing what muscle mass they had and slimming to a much more feminine shape. The light encompassed his face as it was shaped into a soft beautiful female version of his own male face. He, now more she, gave off a slight groan as the rest of her body finished it's changes. Her waist slimmed down considerable and chest pushed out with a soft pair of breasts that seemed to be just at about a large B cup, her bum and legs slowly reshaped themselves into a much more feminine shape as her cloths restricted to fit her female form.
With the change done Janne gave of a sigh of relief and smiled before starting to stretch. "Man that's always so weird when I do the full change back to my real body... I'm always so stiff." She complained before smirking at a smiling Velvet. "Care to help me loosen up Bunbun~" she asked in a sultry tone earning a blush and slight glare from said girl that walked over to the slightly taller girl poking her in the forehead.
"Not on your life Janne." She said with affirm only to give a small "eep" as Janne slipped around behind her wrapping her arms around her waist and pulling her in closer to her body while resting her head on the bunny girl's shoulder.
"Aw come on Vel~" Janne gave of a sultry whine while kissing Velvet's neck softly. "I promise I'll be gentle~" she whispered up in the ear closest to her and delighted in the shiver that it escalated from Velvet before sighing as said girl wiggled out of her grip. Giving off a soft giggle and moving to lean on the balcony railing she smiled softly. "I really have lost you to someone else, huh Bunbun?" she asked with a small smirk.
Velvet's eyes widened as a deep blush heated up her face and she looked away with what Janne could only describe as a dreamy look. "Y...yeah..." she said playing with her ears a bit. "She's strong, beautiful, always looking out for me... She's kind of like you only less of the flirting." she said giggling at the pout she got from Janne from that last comment.
After a minute Janne lost the pout and gave Velvet a genuine smile. "Well if she's that great I want to meet her for real." She said smiling brightly earning a shocked looked from the Faunus girl. "I'm serious Bunbun, we've known each other for almost as long as we've been alive and you've always been one of my best friends, I'd prefer more then that..." she trailed off smirking as she shruged to the sky and taking a playful slap on the shoulder from Velvet, "Then I want to meet her for real and get to know Coco. She is the one that stole you from me right?" She asked the bunny girl who nodded with a shy blush on her face. "So think you can bring her up here tomorrow night? I'll forgo training with Pyrrha saying I'm tired from studying or something and then we can meet up around 12ish." she smiled to Velvet and poked her head. "Sound like a plan?"
"Y...Yeah... I'd really like that Janne..." she said smiling up to her best friend with a slight tear in her eye. Part of her always assumed that she wouldn't except Coco at all, due to obvious reasons. Looking back up to Janne she saw something else though. Her eyes were showing a weight that she had seen before. "Janne, are you okay...?" she asked softly.
Janne gave a soft sigh and shook her head. "It's this whole thing Vel... It's starting to get to me, the lies, the faking... Having to face the people that trust and love you so much only to know your keeping something huge from them. Outside of you the only ones that know my secret is the staff and I don't know how much longer I can do this to them..." she said softly letting herself slide down onto her butt with a sigh. "It's getting to heavy I guess..."
Velvet frowned softly at her friend and sat down next to her to comfort her. She gently laid her head on Janne's shoulder and thought on what the girl meant. The night she came back from her long mission and Janne told her about what happened at the dance and what Pyrrha had confessed to her on this same balcony... It had been one of the few times she had seen Janne cry in such a long time. The pain in the eyes of her best friend at the words Pyrrha had used, such kind words caring and truthful, it stabbed into Janne like a burning knife that she was lying to one that trusted her so much.
She knew Janne knew all to well what being put on a pedestal can be like.
Here she was a girl that at the age of ll made a name for herself so quickly, starting with taking a small pack of Beowolves by herself and then only going up from there. Janne Arc was a goddess among the people of Remnant for her accomplishments over the last 6 years. But she wasn't, yes her semblance that had been dubbed "Phoenix" by those around her could heal almost any injury with in almost know time, she could take blows that would kill a normal hunter in seconds an keep going. But a scar was always left behind, a reminder that she could have died that day. Janne was human and some refused to see her as that. They praised her, many young hunters and huntresses wanted to be her and idolized what she could and had done. The stress could be unbearable to her at times and she only ever had Velvet to confide in. Until she had gone to Beacon a year ago.
Velvet had felt terrible for what she felt was abandoning her closest friend, her sister, to go to a school so far away. Her team and of course some letters home helped to quell that feeling but she received the shock of her life just this year alone when a certain blonde knight approached her after the first year Cardin Winchester had let her go that one day in the cafeteria. She first thought he was coming to do the same until he made one action and said something she hadn't heard in so long. 'There there... It's okay Bunbun... I'm here...' she knew who he really was in a that very instant. Her best friend was back, her sister had come back to her, in a different shape and goofier then usual sure, but it was still Janne. That day she had done something she hadn't since her first days at beacon, before she knew her team would be there for her and not act as the others do. She cried. She cried at what she thought was the treatment she had received that day but looking back... They were tears of happiness knowing that one of her most precious people was back with her once more.
They sat on the balcony for what felt like hours to them content with the person they were with. Until Velvet finally spoke up. "Will you tell them the truth?" She asked softly looking over to Janne.
"Yeah, I have too... I can't keep it a secret anymore so I'm going to tell them after I meet Coco tomorrow night and then I won't put it back. No more hiding that I'm the Golden Paladin." Janne replied with a giggle. "The press is going to have a field day when this happens you know?" She said laughing slightly.
Velvet rolled her eyes and poked the taller girl in the side, "They have a field day when you go to the store to buy tampons..." she said laughing with Janne before contemplating. "I wonder why I still haven't seen that story of the interview you had a few weeks ago when we were in town doing just that?" she looked up to Janne who shrugged
"Well the headline, "The Golden Paladin Buys Tampons" probably won't earn many views on the news feeds." She said with a giggle and smiled over to Velvet. "Come on, we should head to bed. You have a girlfriend to scare after all before tomorrow night." She said smirking as she stood and stretched before helping Velvet to her feet, after a parting hug they went their separate ways back to the dorms.
Velvet smiled and she snuck her way into her dorm room and quickly got into her sleeping gown. With a last smile looking around the room to see her male teammates sprawled on their beds asleep and then to the bed she now shared with Coco to see her leader and girlfriend sleeping soundly. After a second she curled into bed snuggling up to Coco with a contented sigh starting to fall into sleep.
"Hey Velvet..." a tired voice came from her current teddy bear. "How was your walk...?" Coco asked still half asleep.
"It was nice Coco..." She said yawning softly. "I have someone special to me that I want you to meet now that we're...together." She said kissing her leaders neck. "Tomorrow night so be ready." She said giggling at the nod she got in response and snuggling into her more before falling asleep.
