this is the begining of a fun little anothology that will be my first actual auting into writting on this site. wish me luck. If you didnt already guess it this all gonna be about breakups. So if youre the type of person that belives in your ship's happily ever after then turn back now. if you have a ship you hate and wanna see it torn down well stick around i might get to it eventually.
arkos, disaster.
The air was thick. Pyrrha and jaune sat across from each other, the small wooden table, a chasm between them. The two coffee cups left untoched. The noice of all other patrons drew a stark contrast to their pregnant silence. The smell of dark roasted and steam wafted through the room.
Jaune grimmaced. "I'm sorry Pyrrha it's just..."
" I get it, you just need space." She voiced in a hopeful tone tearing her eyes from her coffee at last. "We've fought before, its-"
"Pyrrha" he cut her off, he knew he couldnt mince words it would only make it worse. "This is very much the end."
Pyrrha was left unmoving, the built up water finnaly broke the dam of her lashes; Seening this, Jaune's core turned to rot.
" You will always be my best friend Pyrrha." This was perhaps the spark to Pyrrha's tinder as the her voice came out on an explosive boom.
"Ruby is your bestfriend! since day one. Is that it? youre just gonna cast me aside for her?!"
the small buzz of the venue was all but gone now but this time Pyrrha didnt seem to mind all eyes on her.
Jaune reeled back at the accussation his face contorts into a frown. "This isnt about Ruby. its about us."
"why? after everything I've done? how you be so heartless?"
the ball had been cast down that white hill; only escalation laid in its path and jaune could no longer stop it. his voice quivered betraying his poise.
" Pyrrha please, we had a good run, five years! but somethings aren't forever." he said.
Pyrrha stood up her aura flared. before jaune could react he was picked up by the mail of his coat and flung out the shop window and into the busy streets of vale. He rolled through the street bringing traffic to a halt and came to a stop on a mailbox on the opposite side of the street.
he layed there for a minute, his face seemed refleactive rather than in any pain. His weapon was still in the booth at the caffé but it did not seem to concern Jaune.
Pyrrha soon caught with him. Jaune stood up and closed his eyes. Pyrrha flung his weapon at him. Jaune caught Crocea mors mk.2 in his hands. the white
and gold of its steel shined in the midday sun. it was his mostly priced posetion upgraded by pyrrha with ruby's help years ago for his birthday.
pyrrha was fast and mercyless, Jaune made no atempt to defend himself. Pyrrha fast slashes connection him one after another. jaune just kept eye contact. this seemed to work Pyrrha stop if for a brief moment.
"after everything I've done for you!" Pyrrha swong clumbsily only for Jaune to catch it with his hand to her blade. " I believed in you! I was there for you when you were nothing..." she felt petty and small. " I'm the reason you are even a huntsman at all! ".She tried to bash her shield to his forehead only but jaune immobilized her by bringing her into a hug.
" I know and I am so, so grateful Pyrrha, but were does it end?" he asked. " Is my life forefit? do I owe yoy all my years, is it fair for me be miserable for the rest of my life because you helped me in hunstman academy?"
Pyrrha didnt respond, she fell on trembling knees and simply sobbed. deep down she he was right. that despite all they went through together she wasnt entitled to him, his love or his life.
"I'm sorry, he said this isnt how I planned I would tell you." he said dejectedly.
"No plan survives first contact with the enemy..." she said in a bitter tone still buried in his embrace.
"I want you to know I dont regret a single moment with Pyrrha."
"That's not true Jaune, i bet you've wanted this for a while."
" I'm sorry" he said again.
" don't be" she said still not meeting his eyes. " I cant believe i have been so suffocating."
"you didnt do anything wrong"
" If that were the case we wouldnt be here Jaune."
"I still want you to be a part of my life."
" I'll try..." she said.
they sat embracing on that street, Vale's most publicized Break up.
Well that's the end of chapter one. I am moderately satisfied with this chapter which actually pretty unusual since I'm always super hard on myself. I've been a part of this fandom for a while but I have never uploaded any of my writting because it doesnt meet my standards.
so here is were I upload sort of my though process and explenation for how the story pans out. The prompt was only an arkos brealup so it could have gone a million different ways. I feel as though a good chunk of Pyrrha character is tied her crush to Jaune to the point were she feels incomplete or OOC if you write her without him so i felt the story would always be Jaune trying to breakup with her. I had alot more which i cut out because i could find a place for it. They were originally gonna tear their way through downtown vale and end up at a bridge were Pyrrha use the metal cable against jaune but i felt as though Jaune wouldnt and shouldnt fight back on this instance.
Tune in next time for Bumbleby.This is the writer signing out.
