Authors note: The new chapter of Fate/Grand Order came out this morning and so is a new chapter of FateRWBY! I also recently summoned Nero and Waver in FGO so I'm pretty excited to use them. Either ways I'm really excited to see what you guys think about this chapter regarding Jaune so PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE review! Thank you!

P.S. Ok there were some issues in publishing this chapter. I honestly have no clue what happened. Let's try again.

Chapter four: plans and decisions

"Ozpin, this is difficult to believe." Ironwood said as he sat across from Ozpin. "Are you sure this is the case?" Ironwood folded his hands and rested his chin on them. Trying to think about the implications if this were to go public.

Ozpin adjusted his glasses. He was finding his patience running thin with his old friend. Ever since Ironwood had arrived at Beacon he'd done nothing but second guess his decisions, even going as far as to file reports with the Vale council that put his position at Beacon at risk. "For the time being we have little choice. Everything that's transpired lately is impossible to explain otherwise"

Ironwood sighed. "Very well. I'll discretely look through my troops and students and try to determine if any of the. Are potential masters. Meanwhile there was actually something I needed to talk to you about." Ironwood opened up a file on his scroll and handed it to Ozpin.

Ozpin read the file and handed it back to him. "I doubt this is a coincidence." Ozpin said. "We'll need to move rectify this immediately."

"I can have troops ready within the hour." Ironwood said.

Ozpin raised his hand. "Actually, I have another idea. I'll have Glynda forward you the details later. In the meantime I'll have to ask you to leave. It seems my students have something they want to tell me."

Ozpin sat at his desk as Weiss and Artoria explained the plan archer came up with. When they were done he sat there for minute deliberating. He understood the reasoning behind it. It would be the fastest way to gather information on the enemy, it could let them find out who the enemy was or gain Intel on how many servants they had. Ozpin sighed. "I can't approve this plan." He finally said.

"Why not?" Weiss said surprised.

Ozpin got up from his desk and walked to her. "Because you're still only students." He said firmly. "You and your teams have done impressive feats, even if they weren't technically official, but you're still only students, first years at that." Weiss was used to getting her way, it was part of the reason he hadn't made her the team leader, the best way to deal with it was to be stern. "Make no mistake Mrs. Schnee, this isn't a simple recon or Grimm clearing mission, this is a war. People will die, and I won't allow my students to be put in harms way unnecessarily."

Weiss opened her mouth to object but hesitated. "Yes sir. I understand." She said instead.

Ozpin put his hand on her shoulder. "Don't worry Weiss. Once we have more Intel we can formulate a less risky plan. In the mean time you are more than welcome to stand guard at night. If they happen to attack then you must be ready to defend the school, but don't purposely try to invite them here." He said as he walked them to the door. Before they opened the door he stoped and turned to Artoria. "Mrs. Pendragon it's come to my attention that I didn't ask this earlier but will you and the other Servants require accommodations while here?"

Artoria stood next to Weiss wearing a full suit similar to that of a chauffeur. Her bun had been replaced instead with a simple pony tail. "Thank you but no. We Heroic Spirits don't require food or rest, nor do we get hot or cold. If we need to be out of the way can revert to our spirit forms." She told him. "However, I think it would help if you had me, Jean, and Astolfo become transfer students. It's possible we can learn something from mingling with the student body."

Ozpin nodded. "Very well. I'll speak with my associates and have that taken care of. Tomorrow you will begin attending classes as late transfers. Have a good day."

With that Artoria reverted to spiritual form and they left. "Well that didn't go as I'd expected." Weiss though, communicating with Artoria telepathically.

"I must say I actually agree with him." Artoria replied.

"What? But you supported the plan." Weiss said surprised.

"It was a strategically sound plan, but your head master is right. The risk level is too high for the pay off. It's all information that can be gathered in other, albeit slower, ways. As a leader he has to put the safety of those under him above all else." Artoria said to Weiss's dismay. "In the meantime we should do as he said, Archer and Kojiro will be best suited to stand guard tonight tonight as they both possess independent action. They can do their work while their masters sleep."

They left the Faculty office area and entered the Dormitories. "Why can't you do it?" Weiss asked.

"The Archer and Assassin classes possess the ability to travel an indefinite distance away from their masters, however most servants run into problems if they go to far as it disrupts the flow of energy between master and servant. Individual servants outside those classes may possess it to some degree but not always to the same extent. For example I could go just about anywhere in the school no problem where as other Saber class Servants may not be able to go more than a few yards away." Artoria explained to Weiss as they approached their dorm.

Before they went in Weiss asked one more question. "You were a Queen in life, right?" She asked.

"No." Artoria said. "At that time in my country women weren't allowed to assume the throne. And as I had two older half sisters there husbands had greater claim to the throne than I ever would. My fathers advisor, Merlin, had my adoptive father raise me as a man so that one day I could claim my fathers throne. I was a king in every way, even if the law wouldn't allow it"

"That's awful." Weiss replied.

"Not really, at the time my only concern was for my people. If pretending to be a man was what it took to serve them then so be it."

Artoria sounded so sure of what she said but Weiss thought there was more to it than that. Regardless she dropped the subject and entered the room to tell everyone the new plan.

"You seem oddly calm about this. I mean, I know you've done it before but still." Ren said, referring to the dance, as Nora handed Jaune a dress to try on.

"I grew up with seven older sisters. This happened a lot more than you'd think." Jaune said as Pyrrha tightened the strings on the corset Ruby handed them pushing all the air out of his lungs. "Jeez this is tighter than I thought."

"Beauty is pain!" Nora exclaimed as she pulled the dress over his head.

"You said the same thing about cooking Nora. I don't think you know what's supposed to be pain and not." Ren replied.

"Uagh." Fran grunted as she played with a notebook, flipping through the pages of it over and over again.

"That's not true Fran. There are plenty of ways to have fun without getting hurt." Ren said as Fran dropped the note book and started playing with the bed sheets.

"You can understand her?" Astolfo asked. "That's amazing!"

"It's easy. All you have to do is listen to her." Ren replied.

Pyrrha zipped the dress up and turned him around. "I didn't notice when you wore a dress to the dance but you have no body hair at all. You'd never have to shave."

"Yeah my sisters were always jealous of me for that. It's also part of the reason they'd have me wear their clothes well into high school. I never minded it much but eventually my dad started getting mad about it." He replied. "Also are we gonna spend the whole day doing this?" He asked.

"Probably." Pyrrha said giggling a bit. "This actually a lot of fun, and you pull it all off so well. What do you think Jean?"

Jean stood off to the side and held a skirt up to jeans waist. "I think my master is absolutely adorable." She said.

"Honestly I don't know why you'd wear men's clothes." Astolfo said. "You'd look so much cuter if you did something with your hair." Suddenly Astolfo jumped up and approached him. His face was only centimeters away from Jaunes and he looked like he was studying every angle of Jaune's head. "Hmm. Nora!" He yelled. "We should get him hair extensions!"

Nora's eyes grew wide as she grabbed Astolfo's arm. "There's a store at the mall that sells them. We'll be back in about thirty!" She yelled as she rushed out the room.

"I'd better go with them to keep them out of trouble." Ren said as he grabbed his guns. "Fran, spirit form please." He asked.

"Guah!" Fran cried, rolling around and getting wrapped in the blankets.

"We've been over this." He said as he got her out of them. "We can't have people seeing you yet."

"Ughh." Fran moaned as her corporeal form vanished into thin air.

"I'll see you guys when we get back." He said running out the door to catch up to the other two.

Pyrrha handed him the dress he wore at the dance a few weeks earlier as someone knocked at the door. "Come in." Jean said.

The door opened and Weiss stepped in. "Just came in to tell you Ozpin didn't approve the plan. Archer and Kojiro are going to stand guard tonight and alert us if anything happens but we can't do the other part. Also thought you might like these." She walked over and handed Pyrrha a pair of white, open toed high heels. "If they fit you can keep them, I bought them online and they were a tad too big for me."

"Why not?" Jeanne asked.

Weiss sat on the bed as Jaune put the shoes on. "He said it's too dangerous to do anything like that yet. He wants us to be ready if they come to us but not to go after them." Weiss looked over to Jaune. He had the shoes on and they fit, even if they were a bit tight. They made him several inches taller and really accentuated his legs. "You know if his hair was longer it'd really pull the whole thing together." She said.

Jaune was actually enjoying himself. Even if Nora more or less forced him into it it was fun, and everyone else seemed to be having a good time. Still he couldn't help but be nervous that so many people were seeing.

"Already working on it." Pyrrha said as she applied some eye shadow to him.

Pyrrha continued doing his makeup while Weiss looked up clothes for him, occasionally showing some to Pyrrha and Jean for their approval. When Jaune asked why he didn't get a say Weiss replied "You can't be trusted to make these decisions yet." As if this would be happening on a regular basis. Jean worked on his hair, straightening and tidying it up.

A few minutes passed and Ren, Nora, and Astolfo showed up with a few shopping bags.

"We decided to get a few styles!" Nora said as she pulled one out and nearly sprinted to Jaune. The extension was fairly basic in style but a perfect color match for his hair. She spun him around and clipped it in.

When she moved out of the way Weiss gasped. "Let me get the others." She said in a low and hurried voice as she got up and walked briskly across the hall. A moment later the rest of Team RWBY was over, minus their servants.

Yang put her hand over her mouth. "Damn, he's gorgeous."

"Knew the corset would help." Ruby said. She pulled out her scroll and took a picture. "The heels look great on him."

"You're welcome. Weiss said triumphantly. "Also just ordered all that stuff for you. Considered it one of the perks of having a rich friend." She said

"Did you do the make up your self or did someone else?" Blake said as she got a closer look at his face.

"Uhh, Pyrrha did it." He replied, rubbing the back of his head.

"I'd be happy to show you how to do it yourself." She offered.

Jaune hesitated but finally replied. "Maybe."

Ren looked around and coughed. "It's almost time for dinner. We should get going. Pyrrha you can help Jaune." And with that he ushered everyone out.

"I'll… wait outside." Jean said before disappearing.

Jaune sat on the bed and his head slumped. Pyrrha sat next to him and put her hand on his back. "How are you feeling?" She asked him.

"Not sure." He replied.

"You want me to show you how to do your make up, but your afraid. Why?" She asked

"You know how I told you how my sisters did stuff like this to me growing up?" He asked.

"You wanted it as much as they did." She said, finishing his thought. "But you were afraid of what others would think, and then your dad told you to stop, so you did."

"You say that like it's happened to you." Jaune said looking at Pyrrha.

She got up and walked to the window, looking out it longingly. "I've been in the public eye for years now. As a child everyone saw that I was prodigy in combat." She said as she sat on the window sill. "As I got older I aced all my combat classes and won tournament after tournament. No one could beat me. And eventually people decided I shouldn't be beaten. People have a way of… deciding how the world should be, and if you deviate from that it's simply incorrect." She said.

She walked over to him and pulled him off the bed placing her hands on his shoulders. "Yangs right. He is gorgeous ." She thought. "But I want you to know, what ever you decide, it won't change how I… how I think about you." She said as she walked over to the boy and girls school uniforms and picked them up. "Which ever one you choose, just make sure it's you choosing, not other people."

"You idiot!" Adam yelled as his fist flew into Diarmuid's face, forcing him to take a step back. If he wanted he could kill Adam with ease, but this was his master. And honor forbid him from doing so. "I gave you two orders and you somehow managed to mess that up?" Adam said.

"Master, an enemy servant had been summoned. I didn't think I could win so I retreated. The master was greatly injured though, I doubt she'll be much trouble next time." Diarmuid said.

"I'm not sending you next time." Adam said. "I'll send someone who'll actually do their job. In the meantime." Adam raised his right hand so the back of it faced Lancer and pulled off his glove. "By the power of this command seal, hurt." Suddenly Diarmuid fell to the ground as blood dripped out of his mouth. His back arched as he screamed in agony. "I'll let you know when you're done." And with that Adam left the room.

"Sir, would you like me to send Berserker after Blake?" Adams lieutenant asked as he waited by the door.

"Don't bother. That thing is impossible to control. We'll save him when we need to cause destruction. In the mean time, have Saber go to Beacon. He probably won't mess this up." Adam both hated and loved the idea of using humans. Hated it because they disgusted him, loved it because he could put them in their place. He was in control.

As Adam thought about this he heard screaming coming from down the hall. "OHHHHHHHHH!" The voice yelled. Adam and the lieutenant rushed to see caster standing over his crystal ball. "My beautiful holy virgin! Resurrected once more, saved from the grip of fire and brought once more to us!" Caster yelled as he threw his head up and flailed his arms.

"What the hell are you blabbing on about?" Adam yelled.

Caster turned to them, his bulbous eyes looking in two different directions. "Oh master of my master! Truly a miracle has blessed us! The Maiden of Orleans has been summoned!" Caster pointed to the crystal ball which showed a young girl with a long, blonde braid wearing the Beacon Academy school uniform. "I beg you, allow her and her master to be spared. The master need live only long enough for me to find out how to rid her of the bonds the lord has cruelty placed upon her!"

Adam almost told him to go to hell but didn't. "Sure." He said. "We'll do that." Caster smiled and went back to gawking at his crystal ball as Adam and the lieutenant left.

"We won't actually do that will we?" The lieutenant asked.

"For now yes. We need Caster to control Berserker and for his demons. So keep him happy. And out of my way. That guy is creepy." The lieutenant nodded and went off to tell Saber his mission leaving Adam with one thought. "Why can't all these servants be like Archer?"
