Prologue :
In the beginning of time there was nothing but Void and Darkness, That when God said ''Let there be light.''and thus there it was the Light and God saw that the light was good and so separated the light from the dark. You see the Darkness was piss and thus ,and madness was born.
Due to The Darkness resentment to God, It became the enemy of Heaven. But the Darkness found away to get back at God, thought his greatest creations itself, Humans, you see it goes inside a person soul allowing the host have godlike powers over night, making him a God.
The Darkness tore its way through history leaving nothing but death,chaos,and pain. Each Host's gains more power then the previous host over the thousands of years their offsprings were born.
The Darkness is an ageless power dating back beyond human history. The Darkness is one of the two primal forces of the Universe and is the equal and opposite of the Angelus. The Darkness and the Angelus have been at war since the Creation, before which the Darkness was the original void of primordial chaos. To avert mutual destruction, the Darkness and the Angelus forged a truce through consummation and became the parents of the Witchblade as a result.
Since then, the Darkness has always taken a male human host. Usually passed from father to son, leaving the previous host, and taking his life, as the child is conceived. The Darkness' powers remain dormant within the host until they awaken on the host's 21st birthday.
The host of the Darkness is the avatar and Earthly agent of the Incan moon goddess Kilya, from whom he is imbued with the magics of the dark moon. The host can create and control anything he desires with the Darkness, including sentient beings, though anything he creates will crumble to dust in the light. The Darkness is quite deadly, allowing the host to call forth Darkling minions and fanged tentacles to eviscerate his opponents. The Darkness can also be used to maul and feed on people. The host is himself very resilient, able to survive gunshots and envelope himself within a magical body armor that protects him from harm and gives him superhuman physical attributes.
The last host was a man Name Jackie Estacado a former hitman for the Franchetti Family mob. He is a very violent and sexual man who, though he lives life on the wrong side of the law and can kill without remorse, has a strict set of morals, and a fierce loyalty to those that earn it. Yet the only thing keeping him from being purely evil is his true love Jenny Romano a childhood friend of Jackie's until Frankie kidnapped killed her and sent a videotape to Jackie in revenge. Jackie could not take this and called out Franchetti's mob, leading them to an abandoned warehouse covered in gasoline. When the crew arrived to kill Estacado, Jackie and the Darklings threw down their lighters and blew the place and all its occupants to bits, killing Frankie.
This led to Jackie taking control of the Franchetti family. With control of the Franchetti family, Jackie vastly expanded his mafia, taking on the White Fang, and fought Grimm, They are described as "creatures of destruction" and lack a soul, hence, they are unable to use Aura. They are also drawn to feelings of negativity; such as envy, sadness, loneliness, and hatred, often congregating towards the source of these emotions. At one point, ancient cultures believed that Grimm were animals possessed by evil spirits, or were the spirits of once tortured they were not made by the Darkness but something else who knows?
Anyway Jackie needed to move on from Jenny and meet a woman who had long blond hair and pure blue eyes and her name is Jessica Arc from the Famous Arc family direct descendant of a long line of warriors and heroes, once they had dated for 2 years he had marry her and eventually told her about his past, Jenny and The Darkness and what he had done with its power.
And to his surprise she didn't care at all she told him that there was someone she loved once and he was murder and did exactly what Jackie did to Jenny killer by killing her old lover killer and their love each other more knowing that they both share the same past with their past lover's and Their love grew even more when Jackie had found out that Jessica was pregnant and when the time came for when the baby was born, it was a boy and they name him Jaune Estacado who had his mother eyes and his father dark raven hair.
You see Jaune was a happy boy when he grew up with his mother and father and when he was told that he was a descendant of a long line of warriors and heroes and wanted to be a hero like his mother was and ask his father to train him so he can be a hero to protect the one he loves and care for. That made Jackie very happy because his past descendants were nothing but monster's using the power of the Darkness to do whatever they wanted. Jackie did it too but he also use its power to protect Jessica and His son from harm, And his son would be the first ever Estacado to be a Savior to man kind and not a monster like his ancestors were and train him how to shoot every type of gun there was when he was 10 and how to fight hand to hand combat, but one day during doing night fall they were both attack by a pack of Beowulfs 20 of them. Jackie felt something happening to his son and the day that he hope that would never come, his son use the power of The Darkness by making two demonic serpents heads hovering around him and killing about 5 Beowulfs while Jackie kill the rest of the pack and look over to his son that past out and wonder how his son was able to use the Darkness at a young age.
So once he got back home carrying a passed out Jaune, He told Jessica what happen and she was shock that he was able to use the Darkness at a young age remember that Jackie and his ancestors unlock the Darkness at the age of 21 and that the host would die when the Darkness move to the child but since Jackie was the most powerful Darkness host he had change the rules since he had complete control over the Darkness and wanted him to train Jaune how to use its power and not corrupt him like her husband was when he started out and once when their son turn 13 he had most control over his dark powers like making Darklings,Black Holes, Shadow Travel, and make other demonic being's and weapon's out of darkness and even made some Grimm/Darkness look alike to kill the regular Grimm.
But once Jaune and his father had come back from training they both saw that their home was ruin and that his mother was on the ground laying there in a pool of her own blood and was slowing dying. Jackie saw that The Angelus the enemy of the Darkness had killed his wife and went on a rampage using the full power of the darkness and kill the all of the Angelus that were there while his son had try to heal his mother but that had died and call Vinnie a friend of Jackie's to get a airship ready and took his son and him to see his brother-in-law. Jon Arc that was married and have's seven daughters.
Once he got there Jackie had explain everything to Jon about what happen to him and that the Angelus had kill his sister and needed him to take Jaune in treat him like he was his own while he hunted down the person who send the Angelus there that kill his wife.
Jon said yes and took Jaune in but he wanted to go with but Jackie needed someone to watch over Jaune and make to be there incase Jackie didn't return. When Jon wanted to make those who kill his sister pay he agreed to his brother-in-law wishes.
Before Jackie left he told Jaune that when he turn 17 he will go to Beacon Academy and meet a man name Ozpin who know about the Darkness and who will train him to have more control over it, Jackie also told him that he needed to change his last name to Arc and turn his hair blonde to make him look like a real Arc and if he need anything he would call his Uncle Vinnie and his friends that work for Jackie if he need help to get anything and to treat Jon,His wife, and His seven daughters like they were his real parents & siblings and protect them like he did when he meet a Bunny Faunus girl name Velvet when she was being bully by some kids because of her ears when he was 5.( AN : Oh yeah she and some other characters are going to play a huge role on Jaune past.)
And too never use The Darkness until he went to Beacon so that way the Angelus wouldn't find him and kill him along with his Uncle, Aunt,and Cousin's. So when Jaune was told all these things to him he promise his father that he would never use the power of the Darkness until he meet this Ozpin person so he wouldn't have to relive from what happen to his mother and that when he turn 18 Jackie would return to be sure that he would be safe because he didn't want to lose his only family left and left saying his final goodbyes.
So for the past 4 years Jaune live a great life with his uncle, aunt,and seven cousin's and when he had time he would visited his Uncle Vinnie and the gang in Vale and eat at his fancy restaurant that his father help with. He also got accept to Beacon to on that day he was the most happiest person on Remnant. He knew that he would have a chance to become the hero that he wanted to be to defend the weak, protect the people he care about and most of all to make his mother and father proud that he out there making a differences saving people like he wanted too when he was a kid.
So now when Jaune left to Beacon he was given the Arc Family sword Crocea Mors since he been with his uncle and needed to change his last name to Arc he been training on how to use swords he had some trouble because of how he was train to use guns and Hand-to-Hand combat, But he figure he would learn how to use a sword when he went to Beacon in the morning or have someone train him *Hint Hint*.
So when the morning came he left to go on the airship to Beacon and said his goodbyes to he Uncle and his family, thanking him for taken him in and treated him like his own son and thanks them for being there for him since his mother died and his father left him so he can live a normal life. And all of his cousin's cry and hug him to death but they let him go to reach the airship and that when his adventure began with meeting Ruby along with her team and his own team. He also saw Velvet there too but he didn't want to confront her, not now anyways because of why he left after his mother death and he change of appearance but he also acted like the kind hearted boy he was when growing up even after losing his mother but he didn't use the Darkness like he promise to his father in school but once a month he would go into the Emerald Forest with Ozpin and train so he can have better control over the Darkness and he would never use it in front of his friends because he didn't wanted them to see him like a monster that could kill them and wanted to keep them safe from the Angelus and other supernatural beings he father told he about.
So when his 18 birthday was coming up his friends wanted to do something special for him and that when he had an idea, Since he's Uncle Vinnie run a restaurant in Vale he called him to save a couple of table for him and his friends to celebrate his 18th birthday that was on Friday and got the reservations so he and his friends can have a good time and dinner on his birthday.
But Fate had a different plan for our young Darkness host.
Author Note : Well there you have it ! I hope this story dose as good as my other story dose and I wanted to do Something no one have ever thought of before. Making Jaune the Darkness host because I got this idea since I've read ''This Shadow of Mine'' & ''Hunter in The Darkness'' since They both have a young Darkness host in their story but I wanted to do something more special like what if Jackie married an Arc and he had Jaune and he was able use the Darkness too at a young age. Well this is LividSuperior2 signing off later .
