A/N Okay so no new chapter of Greyscale yet but I felt like I needed to get this idea down. I had it while I was driving to work the other day and I found out after I got to my college class that it was canceled so I had several hours to screw around till my next class so I decided to plan out and write this. I had originally meant for it to be a oneshot but I decided to post a chapter now and make it a two shot where the second chapter is much much longer than the first. Please let me know what you think with a review they really help me get into the writing mood. If you want to see more from me follow me as an author or if you just want to know when the next chapter of this comes out, follow the story. As always, I hope you enjoy.
"Jaune, please just do this for me." Jaune's dad said as he followed him around the kitchen. "As the ambassador to Mystral I have to be there for when their ambassador comes to the capital, and ambassador Nikos brought his daughter. As the only one in the department with a child old enough they asked me if I would have you escort her around while they are here and show her
the city."
"I'm sorry dad, I have a lot on my plate right now. Plus i've been looking forward to spending this weekend with Sun." Jaune said as he poured himself a glass of juice.
"Please Jaune!" Jaune's father pleaded. "If you do this i'll….i'll promise to pay for those helicopter pilot training classes you wanted."
"Really!...I mean, yeah I guess that would be fair." Jaune said with a grin.
"Thank you so much! We leave in an hour so go get ready, and please for the sake of my sanity wear something nice." Jaune's father said as he sat down at the dining room table with the morning paper.
On the dot an hour later the car carrying Jaune and his father left from the front of the apartment they use when they have to be in the capital. It was a short but pleasant time which was mostly spent in silence except for the ruffling of papers while Jaune's father went through some recent reports that he printed out before they left.
Once they arrived at the capitol building, they went through several layers of security including bag checks, body scans, and a check in booth. The inside of the building was busy as usual. With people running around with files and reports and interns with bags of breakfast and coffee. It was a hectic but organized mess.
"Now Jaune, here's a key to my car which is down in the garage, floor three, section J, spot forty-three. Use it to do as you wish. Here is some cash for the day for the both of you. Call me immediately if you have any problems." Jaune's father said as he handed him some keys and a small wad of cash.
"Peiter (peeter) my friend!" Yelled a particularly tall man from the other side of the hall. He approached Peiter and gave him a strong handshake. "And this must be your son! Jaune if my memory serves you. I've heard some good things about you my boy!"
"Ah, Gabriel!" Peiter said returning the greeting. "Yes, Jaune here will be showing your daughter around town this weekend. Speaking of which, where is Pyrrha?"
"She was just here a second ago….oh! There she is!" Gabriel said while pointing to a girl with her back turned to the group. She had the same unmistakable color of hair as her father in a high ponytail that ran midway down her back.
"Oh! I'm sorry father. I was just helping that man over there with his papers." Pyrrha said as she approached the group of men...and Jaune.
"It is quite alright dear, helping people as always. You know Peiter the Valean ambassador, and this is his son Jaune. He will be taking you around the city and accompanying you this weekend." Gabriel said as he introduced the two.
"It's a pleasure to meet you Jaune. Thank you for showing me around I hope I won't be a burden." Pyrrha said with a small curtsy and a bow of her head.
"Yeah, it's nice to meet you too." Jaune said with wide eyes. He had never seen someone so beautiful. Sure there was a bunch of pretty girls at his school and his group of friends had several attractive girls in it but they were lacking compared to this girl.
Her fiery red hair sharply contrasted with her emerald green eyes that held a hard look of dignity and power but was accompanied and contrasted by a softness that gave her a friendly and calm look. The way she carried herself was much different from the gait that the girls he hung out with had. She walked with a sense of purpose and carried herself tall. There was no slouch to her form, just a confident stride that never wavered.
"Jaune…..Jaune….Jaune my boy!" Peiter yelled at his son who seemed to start day dreaming.
"Huh? What?" Jaune asked as he finally snapped out of it.
"I said our meeting is about to start and so we are leaving. Take good care of Pyrrah." Peiter said as he turned and started to walk away.
"Yes, we must be off." Gabriel started. "Please take good care of her Jaune, and Pyrrha, don't cause him too much trouble." He then followed the large statured man deeper into the building.
"Okay, sooo is there anyplace you want to see first?" Jaune asked as he began to walk toward the elevator to the parking garage.
"I've heard that the capital has a fantastic mall. Would you mind going there?" Pyrrha asked kind of sheepishly.
"Whatever you want Pyrrha. The cars this way." Jaune said with a smile as he hit the down button for the elevator.
