Codename White Knight

Chapter 1

The Arc Falls


"Pyrrha, don't do this, Please!" Jaune pleads as Pyrrha types in coordinates into the weapons locker she just shoved him in. "Goodbye Jaune" she says with tears in her green eyes. The locker takes off, "No, PYRRHA!" Jaune screams as it does.

"I will not let this happen, she needs me!" Jaune cries as he starts hitting, kicking, head butting the door, anything to get it open. Something within Jaune Arc snaps. With a scream "I. WILL NOT. LET THIS HAPPEN!" His semblance shows itself, his fist glows white as he punches the door just above the lockers coordinate keypad, blowing a whole through the metal. His punch scrambles the set-in coordinates, causing it to violently launch back towards Beacon tower.


"Do you believe in destiny?" Pyrrha asks her assailant, Cinder Fall as she kneels in defeat, unable to fight anymore. Cinder materializes her bow, and aims it right at Pyrrha's heart as she replies "Yes". However her killing blow is interrupted by a weapons locker streaking through the sky, landing with the force of a meteor. Cinder is forced to leap out of the way as the locker flips, then skids to a stop just before it could reach the edge of the tower and fall off.

The door of the locker is kicked off it's hinges. Jaune rises from the ruined container, eyes wild with anger as he sees Cinder. His blue eyes glow white in fury as he screams "GET YOUR FILTHY CLAWS AWAY FROM HER!" As his semblance flares uncontrollably in his Anger making his blue eyes flare pure white flames and his body pulse white light like sound waves.

"Jaune, what are you doing here?!" Pyrrha exclaims, clearly upset. "Saving your life, get outta here Pyrrha, you can't fight anymore" he says to Pyrrha in a loud, booming deep authoritative tone, something she never heard from him before. She nods.

Pyrrha jumps off the tower, using her polarity to ensure a soft landing.


Meanwhile on the tower, Cinder smirks. "What the hell is so funny witch?" Jaune says in his new tone. "It's so interesting, you of all people, the weakest student in all of Beacon… having the power of a Maiden Knight flowing through your being" Cinder states.

She smiles "I am the Fall Maiden. The Maiden Knight's role is too protect the maidens at all costs. Join me Jaune Arc, be my right hand, and I can guarantee you a life a life without want" she says in a sugary, sweet tone. The pale, long black-haired Amber eyed beauty dressed in a red and yellow embroidered quipao-like dress starts walking towards him arms outstretched, heels clicking on the floor.

"Not a chance in hell, that power isn't even yours! You stole it from that girl you murdered and Pyrrha" Jaune states matter of factly. Jaune points his sword in the Black-haired, Amber-eyed new maidens' direction. "For attacking Vale and unleashing the Grimm on us, murdering that girl, and nearly killing my new girlfriend, I WILL TEAR YOUR SKIN OFF YOUR BONES! HRRAGHH!" Jaune bellows as he charges at her.

"So be it" Cinder replies with a frown as she unleashes the full power of the fall maiden at him. Pure Flames envelope his form. When the flames fade, there isn't even a scratch on Jaune. He smiles defiantly and says "Is that all you have Bitch?" with a snarl.

She grins and clutches her sides in ecstasy "Oh this is too good, the raw unrefined power rolling off you is intoxicating! To bad I have to snuff it out". "Bring it on Cunt, you'll be a bloody stain soon enough" he says seething.

"Then my White knight, come at me, and embrace your death" she cooes in her typical seductive tone. Jaune screams a battle cry, and Charges again. They both erupt in light as they battle, lighting up the top of the tower as Cinders' burning orange battles Jaune's pulsing white.

Meanwhile, on the ground…

Pyrrha pants, exhausted. But she looks up and sees the lightshow Jaune and Cinders' battle is creating. "You idiot, why did you have to play the hero?" She asks as she starts to cry. Ruby and Weiss run up to her. "Pyrrha, you alright?!" Ruby asks disturbed at her condition. "Yeah" is her reply. "Uh, what's that?" Weiss asks, looking up at the sky towards the tower.

"It's Jaune, his semblance finally emerged and used it to save me from Cinder" Pyrrha replies. "That dunce just awoke his semblance, and he's fighting her right now?!" Weiss cries in a combination of shock and anger. Pyrrha tears up again and nods "Jaune has no idea what he's doing, he's running on pure rage right now… Ruby, Weiss, save him before she kills him!" the Warriors redhead pleads.

"No problem, what are friends for?" Ruby says with a smile. "Uh, how are we going to get up there? Elevators and stairs have to be broken…" She says looking up towards the top. "I have an Idea" Weiss says, raising Myrtenaster towards a tower wall and lines up several glyphs leading right up to Ozpin's office, now the roof of the tower as the ceiling was torn off, and where Cinder and Jaune are now battling.

"Run Ruby Run!" Weiss yells. Ruby nods, "Right", and proceeds to run up the wall at inhuman speed.


On top of the tower.

"So angry, does that pathetic girl really mean that much to you?" Cinder asks as she flies around him throwing explosive fireballs and gusts of strong wind at him."Why do think I'm fighting? Now stay still so I can kill you!" Jaune says in response, rolling out of the way of the wind and blocking her fire with his semblance-enhanced shield.

Jaune runs out of patience "Screw this" he grumbles as he runs towards her, leaps off a clock gear, and breaks through her defences. He smashes his shield into her face, breaking her nose and leaving a large gash on her forehead which starts bleeding immediately as she lands flat on her back.

Jaune thrusts downward, hoping to stab her in the chest while she's down. She rolls out of the way, but he's on her immediately, attacking her with an upward slash. She grabs his wrist, stopping his swipe. He tries to shield bash her again, but she slams her left palm against his shield, stopping that attack as well.

They struggle with each other. Cinder trying to twist his limbs to drop Crocea Mors, and Jaune trying to overpower her. They're respective auras trying to overpower the other in accordance with their owners' actions. "This has been fun Mr. Arc, but I'm done playing" she says with an evil smile as her Amber eyes flare orange, and storm clouds gather overhead. Suddenly, both are struck by a bolt of Lightning. Only Jaune screams. He falls to his knees in agony.

"Such a shame" Cinder says, floating up and now preparing a large gust of wind. "You could've been so much more, but you let petty feelings cloud your judgement and now you will die. Was it worth it Arc?" Ruby makes it to the top of the tower at that moment. Jaune is on his knees he's charred, his clothes smoking, and his body still crackling with electricity. He coughs "Pyrrha's safe, that's what matters" he says in a very weak tone.

"Jaune?" Ruby asks stunned. "Ruby-" Jaune tries to say as he turns his head and smiles but is launched off the roof to his death right off the roof by Cinder. Ruby holds out her hand, screaming in horror as she watches it unfold.

"JAUNE!" Ruby Rose screams to the sky in rage, tears flowing as her silver eyes unleash a bright silver light that envelops her, Cinder, the Grimm Dragon flying overhead and blinds everything else for a split second.


As Jaune somersaults through the air he thinks "Nice view" Just before he slams into the Ground. He bounces off some rumble mangling his legs, arms and breaking his spine. His skull cracks, neck breaks and caves in his right cheek. Finally Jaune comes to a abrupt halt when he's impaled through his chest on a jagged piece of exposed rebar. He finally loses consciousness as he hears Pyrrha screaming his name…

End of Chapter 1.


In case your wondering what Jaune's semblance was, it's like Sue Storm's force field casting. For now it happens involuntarily. It can also enhance the force of his attacks. Hand to hand anyway. And yes, his semblance affects his speech. I call it Shielding.

Hope you guys enjoyed. More chapters incoming. Same for my other stories. Love you guys, you rock.
