Welp, time to rewrite some shitty story. Oh! For those wondering, most of, if not the rest of this story will be in the third person. I just felt like doing first person for the introduction. To those questioning, yes the Rosewick Pairing ain't just for show. It will be happening...just not anytime soon. Think after chapter ten. Anyways, have a good day/night-Poison
Chapter One
Pov:?
Filing these papers has always been annoying. Being the secretary of the big guy sounded nice and all, but really since nobody visited him directly, it was just filing papers 24/7. My fun ended when my life ended, but not when my consciousness ended. People think that when you die, one thing happens. That is incorrect, whatever happens to you is up to what you believe in. You could be stuck in hell, or you could be stuck in purgatory. I have seen it all throughout my however years of service to the big man/woman/whatever the fuck. The least common is rebirth. Most people just cannot accept that you could be reincarnated after you die. A subset of that is reincarnated in a fictional world. Even to me that just sounds crazy, which is weird because I have seen it happen. Hell, it's happened at least 200 times, but it's still crazy that people actually believe that.
Imagine my surprise when I see a new schmuck who got reincarnated into the world of RWBY. Dumbass, can't even choose a good fictional world. I look at his file a little longer, his reincarnation is scheduled in a few minutes. Hrmmm….
Pov:?
Well shit. I guess I'm done for is what I would say if I was not in excruciating pain. Turns out the pain of being run over by a truck carries over. I call bullshit, bad enough I die. I guess I have to wait for whatever.
I see a light out of the corner of my eye. I turn and see… Jim Belushi? "Jim Belushi? Is that you? Did you travel here to hide from the fact that you-" I started
"Were in Hoodwinked?" Jim finished. He seems to think for a moment, then he starts to chuckle "My form is whatever, or whoever, you think the grim reaper is. Your grim reaper is Jim Belushi?" Forget chuckling, the guy is laughing now.
"Hey! I can't have the weirdest one...can I?" I asked, unsure now.
"No, don't worry, some fatass had Jessica Rabbit as his grim reaper. Got that fuckwad in and out of here as fast as I could. On another note, Jeb Bush is our record holder with 27 people seeing him as the grim reaper. That is beside the point...anyway!" Jim said clapping his hands together "You are now dead."
I just blankly stare at him for a while. I may have joked about it before, but I never really recognized it. I was dead.
"Now don't you worry friend, because I have a deal for ya!" He said "It says in your file that you are to be reincarnated into the world of RWBY. I think that's a little underwhelming but hey, that's just me. Being reincarnated means you go to a copy of the world up until you get there. After you get there, your choices might change some things. For example, if you slept on a bench one night, Yang might meet Cinder Fall when she's 16 without knowing who she is." Jim said.
"How old am I going to be when I get there?" I asked him
"That depends entirely on you. If you want to be thirty-seven one-hundred years before canon, you can. If you want to be seventy-eight two years after canon, you can. It's up to you." Jim replied.
"...How old would I have to be to get into Beacon without bullshit?"
"Seventeen" Jim replied.
"...I would like eight years of lee-way to just learn about my new home. I also need to research the shit that would be normal for everyone else. If I started eight years before Ruby fought Roman, and get into Beacon soon after that, I would be...nine. I would like to be nine years old when I get to Remnant."
Jim nods "I can do that." He then materializes some folder out of thin air "Now, you have to decide what you want to look like." He materializes a pen too "Now, do you have any idea what you want to look like?"
I thought for a little bit. I decided I might as well make myself look nothing like I look now. I have always like the Majors design, I really loved that coat.
"Can you make me look like the Major from Hellsing? If not, I really want the coat." I told him. He nodded and scribbled some stuff down. "I'm not a Nazi, he just has a cool design."
"I never said you were a Nazi. How tall would you like to be at seventeen?" Jim asked.
"Like... Five-ten."
"Your weight will depend entirely on you, so I can't do anything about it… How strong would you like to be?"
"Make it depend on how hard I work. If I'm going to be a farmer, I don't need to be able to fight Cinder. If I am very involved in the main story, I'm going to study and train hard. I should be able to get stronger." I reply.
"Sounds fair...you sure you don't want to be OP?" Jim said as he raised his brow.
"Eh, I mean, this is my new life. If I want to be an average person, don't need to be OP. I'm sure that if I do meet, like, Hazel this will be a pain in the ass later, but it's not later, it's now." I said.
"Okay. We have a few minutes before you have to go. What exactly do you want to do?" Jim asks me.
"...What I want to do is go with whatever is thrown at me. If I meet Cinder, I'll go with her. If I meet Ozpin, I'll go to Beacon. It really depends on whoever I meet. If I don't meet anybody, I might just open a restaurant or something like that." I said back.
"So...no big plans?"
"Not really." I said.
"Well, your time is almost up. You will get basic information about Remnant, but nothing too deep. You will also know about characters until volume four, but only basic information. Your memories of canon itself will go up to volume four, but it will take time for them to come back completely. Also, your memories of your past life will be erased" Jim said to me.
A white glow began to envelop the area around us. I had a couple of seconds to think about this.
"Wait!" I yell at Jim "Will I remember this conversation?"
"...You might remember half."
"Then why the fuck tell me?" I yelled back.
He chuckles "It ain't for you." He turns around and waves as he walks away.
The white glow begins to envelop me completely. I feel a sharp pain in my skull as my memories of my past life are wiped away from me. My last thought was that this was fucking so not worth it.

I wake up with a splitting headache. I can't remember anything...wait…
Pain goes through my head once again as I remember a conversation with some guy named Jim. I'm in a new world where people have superpowers and fight monsters. A few dozen people and their personalities flow into my brain. I also know that I was reincarnated from...somewhere….Fuck! This hurts...So much. I just lay still for a few moments, regaining my wits.
I take a breath out my nose. I figure there's no time like the present and attempt to get up. I get about a foot off the ground before I headbutt something and head straight back to the earth.
My eyes snap open, and staring right back at me, are two eyes that are different colors. One brown, the other pink.
"Oh...Shit…."
Well, I hope you liked this mostly rewritten first chapter. I kept the beginning exactly the same because I thought they were good enough.
Here is what Blaine knows right now
-knows some characters in the RWBY storyline
-Knows basic knowledge about how Remnant works.
-Knows his name
-About half his conversation with Jim
-Possibly some music
-Random shit that Jim put in to fuck with him (AKA, he knows what a communist is)
Give me suggestions on what you want clarified on or suggestions on what you want to be changed in the reviews, and I'll add it is not a professional work, this is some kid fucking around on the internet. Anyways, have a good day/night -Poison.
