Hello again! Now, you're probably wondering why I dropped off the map. And the explanation is that I had an absolute meat-grinder of a school project(Vietnam flashbacks of writing an absurd amount of notecards)
Anyway, I am back and in fact alive. So yadda yadda I don't own shit yadda yadda
(LINE BREAK)
POV: Jack
"What if something happens? What if she doesn't like it? What if she hated me after?" My date is in a minute and I am, anxious to say the least. "Calm down mate, I may not know these people but it's pretty clear that she isn't like that." Blisk assures me, which helps, but I'm still nervous. We are currently in my room with me pacing around and Blisk sitting on the foot of my bed, Ruby left a few minutes ago so Yang won't be suspicious of us.
Beep beep beep
And there goes the signal for me to meet Ruby. "Well, 'ero, off you go." Blisk tells me with a smile, I walk out and down the stairs and see Blake and Weiss playing chess while Yang is playing a game called rayrim or something like that. "I'm going to Vale, be back in an hour or so." I tell them, getting a nod from Blake and Weiss and a thumbs up from Yang.
(LINE BREAK)
I meet Ruby at the bullhead dock. "So what are we doing?" She asks, to which I grin. "Well, I have tickets to that Atlantic edge movie. Then maybe we could get something to eat." I suggest, she smiles, clearly thinking it's a good idea.
(LINE BREAK)
"The movie was awesome! Both the monsters and the mechs were great!" Ruby exclaims, causing me to grin. If she were any cuter then I would drop dead. We walk around for about five minutes and find a nice looking restaurant that accepts Faunus. We go in and wait in the queue. When it's our turn, however,
"I'm sorry, but we do not serve animals here." The man tells us, angering me and confusing Ruby. "But, there is a sign outside that says that you serve Faunus." Ruby mentions, making the man adopt an annoyed face. "That is correct, we do in fact serve Faunus." The man turns around and we all see the kind looking woman that is clearly the manager. "That's it Rick, your fired. You have turned away too many customers just because they are Faunus." The woman announces, causing the man to become angry. "But these things don't deserve anything! I am only doing my duty to humanity." I decide to speak up. "Watch it, buddy, this thing is a soldier that survived in hostile territory for an extended amount of time alone." I threaten, the alone part technically isn't true, but BT isn't the best travel partner. He pales, then storms out. The manager turns to us, an apologetic look on her face. "I am so sorry you had to see that. In order to make up for it, your meal is on the house." She apologizes, causing Ruby and I to grin.
(LINE BREAK)
I sigh contently, we were on the bullhead to Beacon and sitting next to each other. "Hey Jack, would it be ok if I put my emblem on BT?" She asks sounding unsure of herself. "Sure, I don't see a problem with it." I tell her, causing her to smile. We then arrive at Beacon and walk back to our hanger. I immediately get into my pilot gear, mainly because I have a feeling I will need it and get back to painting BT his original forest green. I finish when I hear something with both sets of ears. Something that makes my heart stop dead.
"JAAACK!"
I immediately run out the door, hoping to escape Yang's fury. If there is a god, he has a sense of humor as I find myself in the contest area with Yang hot on my tail. Seeing as there is no hidden escape, I throw a Firestar at the door I just exited in hopes to stop Yang from entering. But, much to my dismay, she runs straight through the thermite. I use my invisibility and run behind her and hit her with the two-three-two combo, only to piss her off further. She turns and slugs me, launching me and I hit the wall, causing my aura to shatter. Yang then uses her shotgun-gauntlets to send a slug towards me.
Thankfully, BT decides to smash through the Wall, and gets in the way and activates the vortex shield. "I'm sorry ms. Xiao-Long, but protocol three prevents me from letting you harm my pilot any further." He states as the rest of team RWBY, Blisk, and his titan KS-4851 enter through the hole BT made. "Yang please calm down! Jack isn't a bad person!" Ruby pleas, Yang is no longer on fire, but still looks pissed. BT stops any retort, however, by saying something I thought I would never hear. "Friendly militia transmission detected." We all look at him in shock. "Patch it through!" I shout as embark, as soon as the hatch closes, I hear the voice of a woman I thought I would never hear again. "This is Christian Gravis of the IMS Olympian, is anyone there?" I smirk behind my helmet, I know exactly who this is. "This is pilot Jack Cooper, good to see your still alive sis."
"SIS?!"
Shit forgot to turn the external speakers off, oh well. "Wait, Jacky! When did you become a pilot? Oh, I don't care, I'm just glad you're alive! Now, do you have any clue where in the frontier we are? I currently have the ship over a planet with a broken moon" I hear my sister shout through the coms, she always has been an enthusiastic type. "Well, the popular theory right now is a separate reality, as I got here via throwing myself into a weird time-space ball. As for planet, this world is called remnant."
I can hear her facepalm in the transmission. "What have you gotten yourself into this time bro?" She sarcastically mutters, causing me to chuckle. "Oh Cris, you know me, I'm just a magnet for trouble. But you will love it here, minus the soulless, hate-fueled monsters. So if you could get here, that would great." I use a bad airliner pilot voice at the end, causing her to chuckle. "Will do cap'n, Christian Gravis out." With that, the connection cut. I disembark to see everyone with faces all asking the same question, so I answer. "After what happened to my home planet, the militia knew I needed a family, so Christian's parents stepped up and offered to adopt me. Accepting that offer was the best decision in my life. Both the parents and Chis treated me like family unconditionally, they are the reason I'm still sane." I explain everyone nodded in understanding, except for Blake. Wait, why is your last name 'cooper'? Shouldn't it be Gravis?" She asks, to which I nod. "Yeah, but I decided to keep my last name. It's completely legal, just nobody uses it." She nods, I wave them to follow me. "We should probably tell Professor Ozpin that a spacecraft is about to land on the planet." I semi-joke, to which everyone laughs.
