So. This Is my very first story. And yes, I did this on an IPad. Please, if you see any mess-ups, or any incorrect phrase (Or something. I want this to be a 'Legendary' story.), tell me.
Critisism is appreciated. But hate comments, I'd laugh at them.

Of course Jaune arc was hurt. He Had just been shot down for what felt like the millionth time by Weiss Schnee. Of course, his pointless attempts of flirting was merely said as a joke. Yet every time she shot him down, it hurt bad. Very bad.
He knew all the words she said was laced with genuine annoyance, or hate. He knew he should have stopped the day after the first attempt. And best of all, he knew the feeling of rejection. I'm always rejected The teen thought. And Jaune was correct.
Weiss Schnee rejected him the very first day at beacon. The first words she had said about him were "Tall, Blonde, and Scraggly".
Ruby Rose rejected the idea of him being weak, even though Ruby knew deep down he was.
Yang Xiao-Long had rejected him Before he even set foot on beacon. The Buxom Blonde being thrown up on wasn't exactly the best first impression. The rejection continued, and grew, after she noticed Ruby defending the Arc, and how differently she would act whenever the boy was around.
Blake hadn't really known or talked to Jaune that much. But she rejected him after he wouldn't stand up for himself and Velvet after he was being bullied by Cardin. Although, those feelings would tone down after he had saved Cardin's life.
Lie Ren simply rejected him being leader. He didn't show any of the signs, and when he did, he made sure to cover it up, but Jaune caught on. He would see the subtle glares the boy would send him when he thought he wasn't looking.
Nora... Was Nora. Nothing else said, as she would've thrown any insults at him when she thought of them.
And last but not least, Pyrrha. Jaune always counted on Pyrrha. But of course she Rejected him, but Jaune didn't see why. Like everyone else. Every now and then, people would show their distaste when being around him. Some people just stayed away.
But right now, Jaune was contemplating life. Would he do it? That was a painful question. The thought of suicide was just that - a thought. But, after all this sadness and rejection he had built up during Beacon, and from before, he was on the verge of complete insanity.
He was reading comics after the rejection. And he heard many things that had pushed him into suicidal actions.
And with his Suicidal mind, he thought many thoughts.
Is today the day?
Will I regret it?
Would they be happy?
And the hardest question -
Would they even care?
Today was the 'so called' day. And of course, today just Had to replay in his mind.
Earlier that day
Jaune was, of course, sitting in the library. Reading his X-Ray and Vav comics took his mind off of the harsh scolding Weiss had given him about 'Not being intrested'. But it was pretty hard, as Weiss was sitting in the isle next to him. He heard her voices through the bookshelves, and Ruby and Yang's, too. But 2 new voices came in.
"Well, hello there, Snow Angel." A male voice. One that also spoke out Jaune's very own nickname he made for Weiss. "You look stunning. Make sure you don't freeze me." The voice quickly added. If Weiss hadn't rejected him before, she would have most definitely rejected him now. With the addition of the joke, and Jaune's nickname, she HAD to have rejected him, like she rejected Jaune. Right?
But Jaune didn't hear it. The Ice cold tone of voice. He didn't hear the rejection. All he heard was a stammering voice. Her voice.
The one he had been flirting with the past 3 months (Albeit it was mostly jokes. But he never received a response like that.) had stammered to a complete new comer. Jaune pretty much broke afterwards.
And he was near shattered.
But sadly, the final blow was near.
"Wow, Weiss-cream! Never thought you could Melt like that! And, didn't Jaune use that nickname?" It was clearly Yang he heard. The puns, the Oum-awful puns. "Why even bring up the fool's name?" Jaune froze up. "I'm pretty sure Jaune doesn't have the mental capacity to even be here. Why would I fall to a goofy buffoon like him? Weiss' word's were laced with that tone of annoyance he heard when she rejected him.
"Weiss, stop being mean," Ruby's voice cut in. "Jaunes trying hard, at least! Why are you giving him such a bad ti-"
"Ruby, Jaune gives all of us a bad time, and you know it!" Weiss cut her off. All while Jaune was listening to the girls, he really didn't feel happy. They were pretty much insulting him. But Jaune thought, That's normal. He quickly cut off his train of thought, listening back into the bookshelf.
"He drags us all down! If we spent as much time training as we did helping Jaune, we'd all be fully fledged hunters and huntresses! Face it Ruby, Jaune is nothing more than a hindrance that needs buzz off!" Jaune had enough. He dropped his comic book, and ran out of the library, some books tipping over and falling as he ran past.
Buzz off? I'll buzz of right now!
Jaune ran out of the school, and behind a tree. But he didn't notice the 5 pairs of eyes that watched him run.
Back in the Library
Weiss watched as some boy ran out of the building. Scoffing she just shook her head. "And you see that? That is a prime example of idiocy." The white haired girl sighed. "Look, Ruby, I know that you kn-"
A resounding SMACK was heard throughout the room. Weiss put a hand up to her cheek, feeling it as the pain subsided.
Ruby smacked her.
"Ruby!" Yang grabbed ahold of her sister, and pulled her back. The other 2 boys, Sun and Neptune, just stared in silence, getting ready to leave.
"Y-You... Snobby bitch!" Yang and Weiss flinched. That was the first time Weiss had heard Ruby speak like that, and Yang never remembered Ruby saying things like that.
"That prime example of idiocy was Jaune! He," Ruby stopped for a breath, "He listened all along!" Ruby was struggling in her sister's grasp. "Do you want to know why I treat Jaune like I do?! It's because of the both of you, and everyone else!" She spat out the words like venom. "He was treated so terribly, but all of you did nothing! When Jaune was being bullied, you all didn't do nothing! When he showed signs, You-, You-" She couldn't finish her sentence, instead falling out of her sisters grasp and crying.
"Jaune should have stopped Cardin from bullyi-"
"CARDIN WASN'T THE ONLY ONE BULLYING HIM!" Ruby shouted, her eyes glowing white. "WEISS, YOU HAD JUST CALLED HIM A BUFFOON! YOU JUST SAID HE DOESN'T EVEN DESERVE TO BE HERE!" The 2 girls flinched again, Sun and Neptune already gone. Ruby was sobbing hard now, and her eyes were dimming.
"You all hurt him more than Cardin, and all those other bullies. When he needed us," Ruby paused and looked up. Her eyes and face were red. "We weren't there. We weren't there when he needed us the most." Ruby wiped her face.
"And now, I don't think he want's us now." Ruby stood up, and started walking towards the dorms. Yang and Weiss didn't do anything, they were too shocked to do anything. But they could think.
And right now, they were regretting their actions.
With Jaune
Jaune sobbed and wailed into the sleeves of his sweater. He was sitting behind a tree outside of Beacon, and was letting out his all of his anguish and despair. Why am I treated so badly? Jaune thought. Am I really that bad?
Jaune really needed some help. He took out his scroll, and looked at the contacts. After spotting a select name, he called.
"Pyrrha?"
"Hello! You have called Pyrrha Nikos' personnel scroll! Please leave your answer after the beep!" Jaune's head fell down. A 'Beep' sound came out of his Scroll, but he didn't say anything. Hanging up the call, he put the scroll down.
Jaune wiped his face, and coughed. Great. What happened to always being there when he needed her the most? Jaune remembered her going to Ozpin's office for something. Probably complaining to the headmaster about how bad of a leader I was. Jaune stood up, and picked up his scroll.
Sighing, he walked towards the dorms, and put on some earbuds to listen to. He knew that it would come to this.
"Today's the day" Jaune said to nobody.
Today's the day.
Jaune neared the entrance to the dorms. He stretched before going inside. Walking down the hall, he stared at the JNPR dorm room, then back at RWBY's dorm. The Arc took out his scroll, and opened the door to RWBY.
Looking around, Jaune spotted Gambol Shroud and picked it up. He thought he heard some sort of sound, but he shrugged off the feeling.
Sighing again, for what felt like the thousandth time, he stepped out into the hallway, closing the door behind him. He glanced to the left, then to the right. Nobody. Heh, that's good. Jaune went inside JNPR's room.
The teen took his sword, and stuck it into the ceiling as deep as it could go. Or as deep as I could push it. Pyrrha or Ruby could've probably pushed it deeper. Making sure it was secure, he wrapped Gamble Shroud's ribbon around the hilt.
Stepping onto his bed, he couldn't help but think to himself.
Hah. I could've just used Crocea Mors to cut my wrists... I'm really dumb. Jaune straightened out. Nevermind. It would've made a mess they would need to clean. This is probably better. He made wrapped the ribbon around his neck. Tugging on it, just one more time to see if it wouldn't fall, he smiled.
Today's the day.
He was scared. He was about to die, who wouldn't be scared?
Today's the day Jaune reassured himself.
He leaped off of the bed.
[|]
So. How was it? Good? Bad?
I was hoping the 'Sword in the Ceiling' mechanic worked. I thought it was creative.
