Ok... so Chapter 01. I really don't know how far I'm going to go into this but I plan on getting caught up to the events of Season 4-5 at least. Also for the Poll results... as of now. It's.
Pyrrha/ No-one tied for first...
Blake for second
And Ruby, Neo, Cinder, Velvet, and Yang tied for third. They all have at least one vote so far.
Also I did some reading on Fanfiction and found some stories with the same kind of plot as a Hero's New Arc. They started before I did and honestly, they are pretty good.
They are:
Legend of Zelda: Remnants of Tri/ by UnitedOspery1991
A Sword Wields no Strength/ by hunter81095
And finally... Legend of Jaune/ by CDSoundtrack
So check them out if you have the time.
Anyways... I DO NOT own RWBY or Zelda, they belong to Rooster Teeth and Nintendo respectively.
Today was the day... his day he would head off to Beacon. Looking at himself in the mirror, he smiled in acceptance as he wore a pair of black boots, with his blue jeans and Pumpkin Pete hoodie with the Arc symbol embroidered green on the back. He kept his blond hair shaggy as he wore a small necklace. It was an old hand-me-down passed down by the Men and Women of Arc.
Jaune smiled as he looked at it, a small green gem stone... from his memories of the Heroes of Link... a single green Ruppee. And speaking of hand me downs...
Jaune looked on his bed, seeing his great-grandfather's sword. Crocea Mors... repaired from the nicks and scratches as he picked up the sword and sheathe and placed it on his back. Wearing his hood, he smiled as he headed down stairs to meet his family. This would be the last time he saw them for a while...
"Morning guys" he greeted when he made his way to the kitchen, one filled with several girls... and one other man. Yes... Jaune Arc grew up with seven sisters... and two parents to keep them in line.
His father, Jaques Arc... otherwise known as Jack Arc smiled silently, his attention on his son with a smirk while his mother, Isabelle Arc... gave a warm smile... before walking over to him for a spine snapping embrace. He could compare it to a Goron... and his sisters were no better as his youngest, Roslyn Arc ran at him with a large smile.
"Morning, bro" she greeted as she hugged his chest... Jaune merely smiled, patting her on the head as the others greeted him.
"Morning... fresh meat" his sister, Rogue Arc said as she held her arms crossed with a smirk of her own. Causing Jaune to falter slightly. With the way she said it, it was more like he was being drafted in Atlas or something...
As the rest of the family greeted the swordsman he couldn't help but smile at them... He was going to miss them... well, he wasn't going to miss Rogue's teasing... but still he was going to miss them. Jack smiled as he got up and gave his son a hug of his own.
"So... our son is going to Beacon... I guess I should be proud of how you're growing... soon you will be going out with girls... and having kids of your own" he said with a small smile as Isabelle glanced at them.
"No kids... not until he's twenty five" she said finally as Jaune sighed and Jack smirked.
"Fine... but that doesn't mean you can't find a nice girl there..." he said as Jaune blushed.
"I know dad..." Jaune said silently while embarrassed as his dad went on.
"When I first met your mother, I used my charm and confidence to walk over to her and ask her out" he said as his wife looked at him emotionlessly.
He saw her and then became entranced by her for whatever reason before he flirted with her like some kind of macho man wannabe...
"Though through trials and many errors... I managed to serenade your mother with my wonderful nocturne on my instrument or romance..."
"You played it on an accordion... and got the wrong rooms twice" she added as he smirked.
"I wanted the entire world to hear it... and it's not my fault I couldn't recognize the dorm rooms" he defended as she sighed with a smile. She still remembered that... it was both the most humiliating and strangely enough... could be considered their first date... if you consider her trying to strangle the man to death as a date.
"Jaune... if you meet a girl... don't try to openly flirt with her..." his mother warned as he nodded. Growing up with seven sisters... as well as seeing how well it went for his father, despite the fact he still succeeded through slightly different means... was a decent reason enough.
Still, he decided to just find a girl that likes him for him... he could recall his other four lives having their wives... it ended with either a strong-willed farm girl... or a strong-willed princess, since Sky's Zelda was the original Zelda. He never really got that whole reincarnation thing.
That made him wonder if there was a Zelda, or worse... a reincarnation of Gannon around? Shaking his head, he decided not to think about that and focus on his own problems ahead.
"Also... I want you to be safe, no roughhousing or getting into trouble" she warned as Jaune nodded like a little kid. She was the Huntress in the family, his father was a swordsman and was once a wandering bard with his aura unlocked.
Still... an accordion... it reminded him of that Rito named Kass.
"Well, we need to get you to the Bullhead stop in another four hours... eat your breakfast, get packed and say goodbye to your sisters" she said as Jaune sat down. The four hours wouldn't last because the entire trip took an hour on itself.
"So, did you remember your spare clothes" his oldest sister, Violet Arc asked as Jaune nodded.
"And your backup weapons" his fourth oldest sister, Noir asked as Jaune... once again, nodded in conformation.
"And you will be careful?" his second oldest asked. Jaune smiled and nodded.
"I promise I'll be careful, Ceil" he said as the older sister hugged him. Once she was done, he was pulled into another one by Rogue.
"Kick some Grimm as-er butt for us" she said, catching herself infront of the others as Jaune smiled.
"Don't worry... I'll kick some Grimm As-er butt for you" he teased as he was punched in the shoulder by the older Arc.
"Smart aleck" she muttered as Jaune laughed slightly.
"Don't forget to eat healthy food... not just your usual..." his second youngest... Celadon said as Jaune frowned.
"...alright, I won't eat as much of it as I do" he compromised as she nodded with a smile.
"Be a good boy, Jaune" Roslyn said as Jaune blinked befuddled... was he her older brother or her dog? regardless he nodded.
"I will, but you have to be a good girl" he said as she nodded with a smirk of her own.
"And Jaune..." Maron said with a small smile before she whispered something in his ear. "Please don't get anyone pregnant" she said very bluntly as Jaune stepped back and gawked.
"W-what the heck... what do you think I am, a Playboy or something?"
"What's a play boy" Roslyn asked her brother before he passed the buck.
"Ask Maron" he said.
"Ask mom" she replied as Jaune froze on the spot.
"Ok... hey mom-"
"I will give you a present if you forget you heard that word from me and Maron" he bribed as the youngest Arc blinked and smiled.
"Ok... but I want a good one" she said as Jaune nodded and glared at the chuckling Maron and Rogue, who high-fived her.
Before he could say anything however, he was pulled into a deep embrace by Ceil... followed by the others that soon joined in. When Jack and Isabelle appeared, they smiled at the tender moment before they heard one last thing.
"Seriously though... not sex or drinking. Jaune" Maron said as Jaune looked at her in disbelief.
"Why do you think I'll get involved with that"
"I heard stories Jaune. No drinking of sex" she ordered as Jaune looked over to see his parents with a small smile on their father and a quirked brow from their mother.
Seeing this, Maron just turned away while she whistled while Jaune turned away and looked down at his feet.
"Busted..." Rogue said before she was silenced by the same glance before the matriarch of the Arcs sighed. They were growing up too fast.
"Hey mom... what's a play boy?" Celadon asked as everyone looked at her in shock and fear. Jack stared in disbelief while Isabelle froze.
"...Celadon sweetie... where did you hear that word?" she asked as Jaune and Maron looked horrified, some of them preparing the graves...
"Now be careful out there... and no causing trouble" his mother called out as his father smiled. Jaune meanwhile, looked back as he boarded the airship that would take him to Beacon. It reminded him of the Divine Beasts back in Wild's days. He couldn't help but wonder what the world would be like if the world had access to Sheikah tech like he did.
That would cause some serious problems if they ever unearthed that... or the goddesses the shrines that might still be around. He never knew what happened to them but from what Wilds told him, they were all deactivated and slowly went back into "hibernation" as he called it.
Looking down at his own hands, he wondered what it would be like to do something with his own scroll... maybe if he unlocked a shrine himself...
"Hey!" a girl's voice called out as Jaune turned his head and was met with the turquoise eyes of a girl with orange hair. leaning back, he fell out of his seat as she smiled widely. "Are these seats taken?"
"Nora... you can't just take over someone's seat like that..." a young man scolded her as she pouted before smiling.
"Ok Ren" she said as Jaune got up and looked at the duo. The girl... Nora, smiled with her arms crossed as the young man, Ren, was a raven haired child with a streak of magenta matching his eyes smiled softly.
"Sorry about her, Nora can be a little... hyper sometimes" he explained as Jaune nodded.
"Yeah... I have a sister the same way..." he said as he held out his hand. "Jaune Arc" he introduced as Ren took it.
"Lie Ren" he greeted as Nora grabbed him in a hug.
"And I'm Nora... but you already knew that. So... what weapon do you have, do you have any siblings? What's your semblance, do you like Pancakes? and most importantly... do you like pancakes?"
Jaune blinked as she got up in his face as Jaune tried to think.
"Sword and shield... seven sisters... Pocket Space... and yeah... I do" he said as Nora nodded.
"Good" she said as she crossed her arms. "We're going to be great friends" she said as Jaune looked at Ren, who sighed.
"So... what about you guys?" he asked as Nora had an excited grin, pulling out her weapon... a large hammer that reminded him about the Megaton Hammer or the Steel Iron Hammer.
"This is my hammer, Magnhild" she declared as Ren and Jaune stared at her before the blond nodded slowly.
"Cool..." he said as Nora went on about her and Ren being friends but not being "Together-Together..." soon Jaune started to look a little nervous, cursing as his greatest challenge yet...
...Motion Sickness...
Why would he have to have motion sickness... his past lives never had it, so why was he stuck with it... oh great... now he felt sick.
"You ok, Jaune" Ren asked as her nodded, trying to keep the vomit from coming up before Nora spoke next...
"Yeah... you look like you're gonna puke..." she said as Jaune tried to stay strong. He was in control he was going to be ok... he was.. he was...
"...I'll-I'll be right back" he said as he ran towards the nearest garbage can he could find...
"He's going to barf" Nora said as Ren sighed.
"Nora..." he muttered with his forehead on his palm.
"He is going. To. Puke" she said again before standing up. "He shoots..."Nora trailed off as Ren flinched at the sound of the arc throwing up. "He scores" she cheered as Ren shook his head. This was going to be one heck of an experience...
"Gross... you got vomit on your shoes" a younger girl's voice cried out as an older one spoke up.
"What?! Ew-Ew-Ew-Ew-Ew" she cried out as she walked towards her friend.
"No wait, Yang... get away from me... GET AWAY FROM ME!" she screamed as Nora laughed as Ren sighed.
A heck of an experience indeed...
Ozpin... I just got the papers for the newest batch of students... are you sure it was wise to let that girl join two years earlier?. a woman with green eyes, blond hair and glasses asked. Her partner, a white haired man named Ozpin nodded as he looked at the airships approaching his school
"I am sure she will do great things, Glynda... but that isn't the only one I have an eye on at the moment..." he admitted as Glynda looked over to see another applicant on the table.
"Jaune Arc... why would you be interested in him of all people... he seemed to be a decent fighter, seems like any other student to me?" she said as Ozpin nodded.
"Yes... but if my memory served... after Team IVRE fell and left only Mrs. Arc swore to leave afterwards... never to become or let her children face Salem ever again..."
"...And yet her only son joins us" Glynda said as she caught on to what he was getting at. "Do you think he..."
"She knew that she couldn't force her ways on her children... and if he is truly Jaques's son... then he will want to become a swordsman and a hero like his ancestors..." Ozpin said as he looked at the picture. "We know that for whatever reason, Salem tried to eliminate them... but failed to do so... Jaques... was the last known survivor and we still don't have a reason as to why she tried to kill them?"
He asked him many times... and did research, he found nothing... to be honest the Arc family name was rather new, before it would change every four generations... and this was for well over a millennium. they were a family of swordsmen... bards that knew of stories, myths... fairy tales...
Legends...
It was at that moment he recalled an old legend of his own, one that was nearly forgotten by the passages of time now... one he learned back before he was cursed... before he was destined to fight Salem...
He promised to keep that secret with him, one that he would never reveal unless the world be turned upside down... another Great War... at worst.
He would have to see how the young boy would do... and if Salem was truly threatened by them as much as to try and eliminate their entire bloodline...
'A silver Eyed Warrior and the descendant of the Farosh Clan...' he thought as he picked up his cane and left the room with his deputy headmistress by his side...
And Cut. So this was the first official Chapter of a Hero's New Arc. Any thoughts, suggestions, criticism or other are all welcomed.
Now I also planed on developing Jaune's sisters off of Zelda characters while I based off Jaune's parents by Joan of Arc's parent's names.
Also... since Jaune is Link's incarnate, I was wondering what title to given him. I was already given a suggestion of the Hero of Life by: Kronus18, so some ideas would be helpful
So far I have:
Hero of Remnants
Hero of Life/ suggested by Kronus18
Hero of Ruin
and Hero of the New Era
Finally, I wanted to know... should I include something similar to a "World of Remnant" Omake after certain chapters or no, It would more or less be about ancient legends about Hyrule before it became Remnant.
That's all for now...
