Rain. Rain was falling down on cloudy skies.
A field. A field was seen covered with blood and corpses.
Three People. Three People were seen at the middle of the field.
One was on the ground, Pleading for life.
The other two were standing. Contemplating the last decision.
Until one of the two, Pointed his cane at the one on the ground.
And shot him
"AHHHHH!" Jaune shouted as he sat up his bed, covered in sweat.
Jaune was a rather masculine man. Well, as masculine as a 22 year old could be. Wearing pajamas that were stripped blue and white. with blonde hair and blue eyes. One could say he was handsome. He was in his Vale apartment with a few furniture. A Television, a Dining Table and a few other necessities when it came to furniture.
As Jaune stood up he decided to take a shower. Proceeding to take off his clothes, he took a look at the clock in the process.
'Huh, still early in the night. I should not have slept in the afternoon. Jaune you idiot.' Jaune thought as he stepped into the bathroom and turned the shower on.
'Maybe i'll take a stroll through town'
- That Night -
Jaune was walking through town. Wearing nothing but blue jeans and a grey hoodie. He was enjoying his time. Until he heard someone fighting.
Curiosity got the better of him as he turned to look. As he looked, he saw a girl. The girl was a fairly skinned young girl with silver eyes and black, neck-length hair that gradated to dark red at the tips cut in an asymmetrical style. She wore a long sleeved thick black blouse with a high collar and red trim on the sleeves, a black waist cincher with red lacing up the front, and a black skirt with red trim. She also wore a pair of thick black stockings and black combat boots with red laces, and red trim around the top and red soles.
Her outfit also had a red hooded cloak fastened to her shoulder by cross-shaped pins. Her emblem appeared as a large silver brooch and was pinned to a wide black belt slung around her hips on an angle, which also had bullets and a pouch attached.
The girl was fighting a figure that had slanted, dark-green eyes and bright, long, orange hair, with long bangs that covered his right eye. Black eyeliner that traced his visible left eye. He wore a red-lined white suit with long black pants and black shoes. His also had a small gray scarf, black gloves with buckled sleeves, and a black bowler hat with a small feather tucked into its red band. With what looked like a cane as a weapon.
Jaune immediately recognized the figure.
'Roman.' Jaune thought as he gritted his teeth. Now that Jaune knew who was good and who was bad. He was thinking of helping.
As Roman was about to fire away on Red, 'Shit!' Jaune catapulted to the girl now dubbed as "Red" using his semblance.
Now let me explain. Jaune's semblance is to control wind. Meaning he could do just about anything he could do with wind.
That meant Jaune made a very strong gust of wind in order to get there in time. As he hooked the side of Roman's face, he slowed himself down and stood up.
'Fucking perfect!' Jaune thought as he took a look at Roman and then looked at Red who's eyes were shut. Then, slowly they opened, surprised that the incoming bullet never came. instead of a bullet, she saw a very handsome guy looking at her. She blushed.
"Hey Red, you okay?" Jaune asked at the seemingly red faced teenager.
"Wah- huh- eh- ye- Yes!" Red exclaimed before calming down. "I mean, i'm okay. And my name is not Red! It's Ruby! Ruby Rose."
"Sure thing Red." Jaune said as he saw Roman standing up. Jaune put his hood on his face. "I'd Introduce myself but seeing as our mister suit and mascara is standing up, i guess we should fight."
Ruby nodded as she also saw the orange haired man stand up.
Upon standing up, Roman held his cheek with his hand. 'Ouch, that hurt. Still i did not expect that. The last time i had a hit that hard was... no... that's impossible, he's dead.'
"Well little Red, I have to go now. We might continue this next time." Roman said as he fully stood up. "Although i have to ask. Who hit me?"
Ruby pointed to the hooded man beside him and Jaune nodded. as an airship seemed to appear by Roman.
"Look i don't know who you are, but i will make you regret it." Roman laid his threat to the grey hooded one - Jaune. As sirens seem to now be heard.
"Until next time!" Roman laughed as he went up the bullhead.
As Roman got up to the bullhead he cast a look back and saw a sight he thought he would never see.
Jaune Arc.
'What!? No way! I killed him!' Roman panicked at the one he could never defeat by himself.
Jaune and Ruby both turned to their backs and saw a woman.
The woman appeared to be a middle-aged woman that had very light-blonde hair tied back in a bun with a curl that hanged down the right side of her face. Her eyes were bright green and she wore thin ovular glasses. She had dangling teal earrings that matched the hanging pendant on her collar.
She wore a white long-sleeved, pleated top that had a wide keyhole neckline and gauntlet cuffs that flared in pleats at the wrist. Her lower body was covered by a black high-waisted pencil skirt with bronze buttons and black-brown stockings.
She wore black boots with bronze heels, and a cape that was purple inside and black on the outside. The cut of the cape was stylized to end in flames and arrows, with a row of diamond-shaped bronze beads on the back. Above this line of beads appears an emblem of a tiara that is her personal symbol.
Jaune immediately recognized this woman as Glynda Goodwitch.
The woman flicked her riding crop and along flew various things at the bullhead which seemed to have stopped because of a line of fire, dust and glass. And the bullhead went out of sight.
Upon seeing both of the people who fought Roman Torchwick, her eyes widened at recognition when she saw the person with the grey hoodie.
'Jaune'
'Glynda'
The two stared at each other for a while. Until she cut off and spoke.
"You two, come with me, there is someone who wants to speak with you." Glynda said as she walked off leaving no room for argument. All the while casting long glance at Jaune.
'You came back!'
A room. A dark room with only a desk with a single lamp in the middle of the room.
To be frank it looked like an interrogation room.
To be even more frank, it was an interrogation room.
Ruby Rose was at white desk, seated by a chair. As the door opened she saw the same blonde woman from before, only now accompanied by a white haired man she immediately recognized as Ozpin, the headmaster of Beacon, A Prestigious Huntsman and Huntress Academy, training huntsmen and huntresses to fight creatures of evil known as Grimm.
Ozpin looked like a middle-aged man with tousled silver hair and thin brown eyes. He had a light complexion and sharp facial features and black eyebrows.
He wore shaded glass spectacles and a small, purple, cross-shaped pin on the cowl around his neck. His outfit mainly consisted of an unzipped black suit over a buttoned vest and green shirt. He also wore black trouser shoes and long, dark-green pants.
As Ozpin went near Ruby, he pulled out a plate of cookies and plated them right in front of Ruby, who started eating said cookies.
"Ruby Rose." Ozpin said as he gained her attention.
"Yes?" Ruby weakly said as she shakily looked at Ozpin.
"You have, silver eyes." Ozpin said as he looked interested in her silver eyes.
"Uh yes? I mean, i was born with them." Ruby said
"I see." Ozpin replied "Where are you studying?"
"Signal Academy!" Ruby proudly said.
"Signal taught you how to use a dangerous weapon such as a scythe?" Ozpin asked.
"Well one teacher in particular." Ruby said as she ate a plate of cookies.
"Hmm i see. I only know one teacher who uses a scythe. A dusty old Qrow."Ozpin though.
"Thash mah unlhe!" Ruby said with a mouthful of cookies. Due to a harsh look from Glynda. She swallowed and answered. "That's my uncle! Uncle Qrow!. I was complete garbage before he took me under his wing. Now i'm like Hiyah!"Ruby said while she was making kung-fu noises.
"Now Miss Rose. Do you know who i am?"Ozpin asked.
"You're Ozpin! The Headmaster of Beacon Academy. My sister is about to go there! I just have two more years and i can also go there!" Ruby cheerfully exclaimed.
"I see. Why do you want to go to Beacon and become a Huntress?"
"To kill Grimm"
As blunt as Ruby could be. Ozpin and Glynda were shocked. The two exchanged looks and nodded.
"Well Miss Rose, How would you like to come to Beacon this year?" Ozpin said gaining a shocked look from Ruby.
"Really!? Wait-, really?" Ruby exclaimed
"Of course! Well, if you do not feel that you are ready then-"
"NO! I mean, no. I would love to come to Beacon this year!" Ruby exclaimed. Undoubtedly excited.
"Well then Miss Rose. See you in Beacon." Ozpin said as Glynda opened the door for Ruby to exit.
"Uhm Mr. Ozpin?" Ruby asked Ozpin.
"Yes Miss Rose?"
"Please take it easy on Mr. Grey Hoodie. If he hadn't came i would have been dead."
As Ruby left the building. Ozpin and Glynda shared a look. And went to the next room. Where another interrogation room was. And in it was one Jaune Arc. Sitting on a chair with his hands cuffed behind him.
"Oh, hi guys! haha long time no see. I guess." Jaune laughed as he was suddenly speared to the chest. Table be damned, as Glynda launched herself at Jaune with tears.
"You idiot! Where were you!" Glynda cried.
"We looked for you! I looked for you!"
"I know."
"I thought you were dead."
"I know."
"We could never find your body."
"I know."
"You were gone for 5 years."
"I know."
"THEN WHY DID YOU DISAPPEAR!" Glynda exclaimed as she cried on Jaune's shoulder.
As Glynda kept on crying on Jaune's shoulder. Jaune and Ozpin could only wait for her to calm down.
Glynda Goodwitch was what one could say was the reincarnation of professionalism, tied with a certain ice queen. She was strict, but also caring to a fault. Some people relate her to a strict boss with a lot of responsibility and independence. But those who knew her personally, would relate her with a pirate captain.
She'll take care of you to a certain extent, but if you mess with her you're walking the plank.
But the Glynda Goodwitch that had speared Jaune across the table was a different story. This was Glynda Goodwitch withher mask off. Even if she was strict, even if she was a professional, it still didn't erase the fact that she was still a woman at heart. A woman who's heart was freed from its masking of emotions.
Jaune only held her closer as he let Glynda unleash all her tears on his hoodie, it was the only way he saw that could help Glynda.
He dreaded to imagine what she had gone through when he disappeared.
As Glynda finally calmed down, she got off of Jaune's lap and stood up.
"Jaune, you have no idea how good it is to see you. I apologize for everything." Ozpin said.
"Ozpin you have no need to apologize."
"No, Jaune my boy. I have every need to apologize. I should have seen the enemies upon us." Ospin said as he went to bow his head.
"I thought i told you. You don't need to. Sure i almost died but here i am aren't i?" Jaune said as Ozpin stood up. "Also these cuff are worthless. These cops ain't arresting shit in these."
As Jaune was stretching his arms Jaune stood up to stretch and then sat back again.
"So how are you guys doing?" Jaune asked.
"We are fine Jaune. I am still the current Headmaster of Beacon while Glynda is now my... assistant of sorts." Ozpin said as he scratched his head at the last part.
Glynda coughed. "Deputy Headmistress."
Ozpin stood straight. "Right, Exactly" Ozpin said as Jaune sweatdropped.
"Also speaking of Beacon..." Ozpin said as he went closer to Jaune.
"How would you like to expand your knowledge with the next generation of Huntsmen and Huntresses?"
-Somewhere-
Roman Torchwick was somewhere. It looked like a comfy room with television, a couch, a dining table and a large fridge.
At the dining table was a woman. A woman with half brown and half pink hair with a brown eye on the right and a pink eye on the left. All the while eating Neopolitan ice cream.
"Hey Neo" Roman said as he just flopped down the couch like a dead body.
Neo saw that Roman was too tired. So she swallowed some kind of liquid and almost vomited. And she spoke.
"Hey Roman. You looked tired."
"Yeah, No shit sherlock." Roman said as he stood up and faced Neo. "Look Neo, i have something to tell you and i don't know how to bring it up so i am just going to say it."
"What? Are you going to say you love me? Aww, Sorry Roman but i don't think of you that way." Neo tried to joke. But as she saw her father figure look at her seriously, she knew this was not the time.
"What is it?"
"Jaune Arc is alive" Roman said as he dropped the bomb.
Neo dropped her ice cream spoon in shock. Her old boyfriend was alive. The same one she thought they had killed.
Neo, recovering from her shock spoke. "How was he, was he well?"
"Hah. He was good enough to punch me in the face. exactly like 5 years ago" Roman said as he took a cigar and lit it.
"This shit just never gets easier does it."
