As usual I own nothing, here's another chapter enjoy

Yang was anxiously waiting for the ship to finally arrive in Patch, it wasn't due to the fact she had been on a ship for three days. Nor was it the fact she'd finally be home after four long years, it was the fact that she would be coming home alone. Obviously Yang had friends she made in the military but in War it's very easy to lose the people you care about. Yang lost someone that no one could replace and it was her job to protect her and she failed, she lost Ruby. Two years after Yang was drafted it came time for Ruby to voluntarily join the fight for freedom. She got through boot camp easy enough, the weren't really picky at the time with how Vale and the allied powers were doing against the war with Atlas and Mistral.

When Yang heard Ruby was going to be fighting alongside with her it took everything in her not to grab a gun and fight all the way to Oz's tent. Yang still remembers the last letter she received from her father before Ruby died. More specifically a few words from the letter, "I'm counting on you to take care of your little sister and keep her safe." Ruby never stood a chance In that war, and now she will never come home. She will always be on that battlefield crying and afraid, where Yang left her. Yang shook her head trying to free herself of these memories, she needed to be strong when she faces her father. Not that she was going to go visit him anytime soon for that matter, when Yang didn't want to do something she went above and beyond to procrastinate. "Ladies and gentlemen this is Captain Neptune speaking. We've arrived at the island of patch, as soon as you step off this ship you will be relieved of Duty and officially discharged from the military. The kingdom of vale thanks you for your service."

Yang didn't want a thanks she wanted her sister back and four years of her life they robbed her of. The hatch opened and the drawbridge extended to the docks, thousands of people could be seen with excited cheering or crying and all sorts of emotions. Yang wasn't really interested in joining the party of the year though, she was more interested in finding a bar not for reasons most might think. Making her way through crowded streets and sidewalks reminded her a lot of Vacuo in many ways. While Yang liked seeing her hometown living it up for the first time, she preferred the party every night and laid-back atmosphere of Vacuo. As Yang rounded the corner her vision narrowed on a familiar set of solid blue eyes that could only belonged to one Jaune Arc.

"Hey Yang its been a while haven't seen you since before Atlas fell, what took you so long." Having obviously been spotted Yang decided to Converse with him knowing full well she might end up drunk by eight in the afternoon. "Storm came in right after your ship left, got delayed a few hours." Yang responded with as the two continued to walk down the street. Neither of them really wanted to talk about the war, everyone lost something from it. For yang it was Ruby but for Jaune it was his sisters, unfortunately because Yang and John shared this in common they became pretty close. Yang still remembers the few times she was fortunate enough to be in the same trench posts with him. The nights she could cry freely without worry or judgement and ridicule for not being the tough soldiers they were expected to be. Nights he would hold her with one arm as they were prone while steadying his rifle with the other, and other nights she would do the same for him.

"So what do you think, you in?" Yang was so caught up in the memory that she didn't quite catch the question. "What sorry i didn't hear what you said" Yang said trying to sound like she had been paying attention. "I was asking if you wanted to get a place together" Yang actually liked the idea of getting a place with Jaune, but she needed to check in on a few things first. "Sounds like plan" Yang said while motioning Jaune towards their apparent destination, the Crow Bar. Yang always liked the name of her uncle's bar as well as the man himself "Really Yang, we passed like four bars on the way Here." Jaune said with justifiable irritation. "Yeah its my uncle's bar and probably where I'll be crashing until we find a place, and before you ask I'm not sure my uncle will let u stay the night." As much as Yang would like for him to have a place to stay so he wouldn't have to spend money on a hotel, the choice wasn't hers to make. "It's cool if thing's go that way, I can stay with Ren" Jaune said letting Yang pass through the door first. Yang always remembered her uncle's bar being the best in town, but given it being the party of the century it was no surprise to her what she saw.

The first thing that caught Yang's attention was the incredibly strong yet inviting aroma of alcohol. Flaring her nostrils breathing rich tainted air in, she caught sight of an epic version of beer pong being played out in the center of the room. No doubt put together by Crow himself, as evidence of his ingenious knowledge of anything alcohol related. "There's my little fire cracker, everyone! a round of shots on the house for my niece!" shouted an older man from across the bar. To this everyone cheered and hollered, As much fun as drinking and getting wasted right now sounded to Yang she just wasn't in the mood.

Sensing this Jaune drank both shots that were handed to them to which Yang mouthed an inaudible thank you over the crowd. As the two made there way to the bar, Crow decided to meet them halfway crushing yang in a caring hug. "I'm so happy you made it back in one piece kid" Crow whispered into Yang's ear. Yang's uncle wasn't known to show a whole lot of emotion, so it came as a surprise to her to see him all teary-eyed. "Sorry not all of us could make it" Yang said burying her head into his chest not wanting him to see her cry. "Hey you have nothing to be sorry for, you didn't take her from us to go fight, the war did that. Besides wherever she is i'm sure she's happy you made it back too, and so undoubtedly proud as I am of you for what you had to go through." Having had enough of this pity party Yang broke away only to remember Jaune was still standing there, looking vary uncomfortable during her and Crows tender family moment.

"Oh sorry, uncle Crow this is Jaune a friend of mine from the war" Yang said while Jaune offered his hand. Crow looked the man up and down before reaching into his coat, and instead of accepting Jaunes handshake. He slapped his own personal flask in the boys hand while staring into his eyes challenging him. Crow had a habit of testing any man Yang or Ruby brought home regardless of there intentions. Almost everyone in the bar knew Crow had an iron stomach, and the only thing that can get him buzzed or drunk was whatever he had in his flask. Rumor has it that he has a friend in Vacuo that specially brews and ships it just for him. Little did Crow know that Jaune could match shot for shot with soldiers back in Vacuo and that means something there. Everyone's eyes were now fixated on the two of them waiting to see if this young man could handle whatever poison the flask contained.

Jaune undid the cap and slowly raised it to his lips, hands trembling as he did so. Most expected him to spit it out some thought he would choke and a few bet he would take a small sip. No to the entire bar surprise Jaune leaned his head back and chugged the hole thing down like a champion, slamming it down on the nearest table. Looking back up to jaw dropped Crow, he wiped his mouth grinning "you got anything stronger."

so yeah here's another chapter not sure if I'll have Jaune make a move on Yang or not, I know Blake and Weiss haven't made an appearance yet I'm getting there so yeah please leave a review tell me where i fucked up or if it's bad or good it all helps
