AN: I'll be updating everyday or every other day, if possible. The only reasons I won't is either, because I can't, writer's block, or the next chapter is long. This chapter is mainly filler, just letting you know Jaune's training before we get into the main meat of the story. I would like to thank, LaughingLefou for the semblance that Jaune has in this fic. I'd like to say I didn't copy his idea, but I basically did. Anyways, I hope you enjoy. I do not own RWBY.

Audible speech: "Hello"

Thought/whisper: "Hello"

Shouting or sounds: "HELLO"

Chapter 4: Training with the Phantoms

(Jaune Arc POV)

"Beep, Beep, Beep" an alarm clock sounded as the time showed 5:00. I slowly come out of my peaceful sleep and situp on my bed. I slowly pull off the warm covers and standup stretching my arms. I quickly grab a towel and shut the damned alarm clock off. I quickly undress from my normal attire of a black shirt and pajamas. The Phantoms fashion sense has been rubbing off on me. I get into the shower and feel the warm water rush over me. "Today's going to be a good day." I thought hoping it would come true.

(10 minutes later)

I leave my bathroom with my toothbrush in my mouth and fully dressed in full workout gear, blue shorts and a sleaveless shirt. I quickly cook an egg and pour some milk into my cup. Once the egg is done. I quickly eat and get ready to jog all the way to the Phantoms' warehouse.

This is my every morning sense moving to Vale. Ghost gave me this apartment so I could train with him and the others everyday. "Hurrah for me." I think as I exit the door of my apartment and start jogging towards the docks.

I got into the routine surprisingly fast, after the first few days of absolute hell that they put me through. Their training routine has been... harsh to say the least. A 10k jog to their place, then one hundred pushups, situps, and squats just for a warm up, everyday. If they even think I am skimping them out on any of it. I'm forced to do it all over again.

After the warmup, I am placed under Shades for about two to three hours learning about tech, such as the CCT, the A.S. scroll, and A.I. or robots like Atlas' newest combat drone, the Knights-200, and their newest addition to their heavy mech divison, the Paladin-290, which are only in the testing phases. I learned how to hack and control each and every electrical dives they could get their hands on. He also taught me how to defend my self with his bo staff. He would attack me and I would fight for my life. Yeah, self-preservation more like it

Next, I get to practice with Ice for an hour and a half, or as I like to call it "dogde or cry". She switched between two training styles, either CQC (close quaters combat) or she would shot at me with her 50 cal. Berret sniper rifle and I had to either dogde her rounds or get hit and cry for about two minutes. She never used live rounds, "Thank Oum" or else I wouldn't have either a body or life to hate. She tought me every fighting style that she has in her database. From basic wrestling to advanced Krav Maga. I got pretty good, but never anywhere close to her skill level.

Then, Ghost would teach me how to wield my sword. He told me the shield would only slow me down and that my family's sword isn't advanced enough to pass as a viable weapon, so he let me borrow some from him. The weapon or should I say weapons I used are two short swords about two feet long. He taught me sword fighting skills from Fencing to Kenjutsu, but just like Ice. I never got anywhere close to landing a hit on him. He only used his cane while fighting me. I'd hate to face him with a real sword.

The last of my personal lessions, I find myself down by the shooting range with Heavy. He taught me how to use fire arms ranging from 9mm pistols to 20mm anti-tank rifles. He also taught me how to use the pistols in CQC with enemies with ranging sizes, from practice drones to Ursa Majors. Real Ursa Majors may I add. The weapons I use the most are dual 44. semi-auto pistols with bullets ranging from hollow points to dust rounds. We would shot at each other with non-lethal rubber rounds, they don't kill but they hurt like a bitch.

Lastly, Ghost unlocked my aura about a week ago. He taught me how channel my aura allowing me to augment my body with more strength, speed, and aglity than the average huntsmen-in-training. He also helped me discover my semblance. He calls it "Kinetic Absorption". I can absorb a hit from any strike and store the energy and use it in my next attack. This applies to falls and other things of the sort. I am not protected from being impalied if I fall or protected from the elements, like fire, ice, and electric dust. I won't tell you how we learned such things. *shivers*

Now on my last day of training, I finally get to become a full-flegded Phantom. Hopfullly, Beacon won't be as hard, but knowing my luck. Yeah, I really hate my life right now.

AN: This is just a filler chapter to allow you guys to know the types of training Jaune went through during his three months with the Phantoms. I promise the story will pickup once we get into the actual show. Note that the story line may change, but the major conflicts will take place. The emerald forest, the docks, the train fights, etc. will still take place, but with my OCs helping out the main cast of RWBY and my version of Jaune. Chapter 5 will come out tomorrow. Thanks for reading.
