Halfway Right

I own neither Naruto, RWBY, or LINKIN PARK, I'm just a fan showing his appreciation to the things that help him get by through everyday life.

In the after math events since the fight between Qrow and Naruto, both adults were sentenced to court, on 2 separate charges.

Qrow was on trial for abusive behavior towards his nieces, domestic abuse, using a weapon in a fight, and attempted rape and murder.

Naruto was on trial for home invasion, starting a fight, assault and battery, and for causing mental trauma and attempted murder.

This has been going on for a month now, and during that time, Naruto found out Ruby made a full recovery and didn't suffer from any concussion or internal bleeding to the head.

Today was actually the last day of Naruto's court date, and was currently on recess before awaiting for the jury's final judgment and his sentence from the judge.

In truth, Naruto could care less, since Qrow was sentence to 25 years in prison, followed by 2 years of therapy in the nut house, and if Naruto could guess, Qrow would be broken man by the time they release him.

Sure Hinata had manage to convince her father to be his lawyer, at no charge, and given how Naruto was doing this in a form of frontier justice, which won the respect of everyone, he knew the law, and how the judge would still have to punish him.

"Mind if I sit here" came Hinata as she stood over Naruto, "Sure" smiled the blonde as Hinata took a seat next to him.

"I talked to my dad, and from his stand point it seems that you probably get off with at most community service" smiled Hinata, "You got to remember, this isn't the first time I went to court on accounts of assault" reminded Naruto.

"To be honest I'm not worried of my sentence, Ruby and Yang are safe, and Qrow's in prison, so as long as there's right in the world, I'll face my sentence head on" Naruto said with a smile of confidence.

Hinata was simply stunned as to how fast Naruto became his former self, even at the face of punishment as high as his, he seemed ever so optimistic, and therefore, gave Hinata a reason to smile.

"Naruto, it's time" said Hiashi as he was all primed and presentable as he was standing by Naruto, and his daughter.

"Good luck" Hinata said as she embraced the blonde in a hug, before pulling back and let Naruto accept and face the consequences.

In a matter of minutes, everyone began to sit down in their places as those who had been anticipating for this day to arrive could only hold their breath.

"Has the jury reached its verdict" called the judge, "We have your honor" said a lone man holding a paper with what the majority had voted on.

"We find the accused Naruto Uzumaki, guilty" said the lone man as Naruto and Hiashi were wide eye in confused as everyone else clamored amongst themselves.

"Very well. Any last words before we conduct the sentence" called the judge, "Yes your honor" Naruto said as he began to stand from his feet.

"Look I know what I did was wrong, and I'm sorry for what I did, but the truth is your honor I'm don't care" stated Naruto as he got everyone to stare at him.

"I know that I have a record that makes me come off as that guy who would scream at himself when there's no one else to fight, and in this life and in this system, I learned to accept that I don't lose, and I don't win" began Naruto.

"So it doesn't matter that I lost today, but if it was wrong that I took actions in my own hands, then I'm at least halfway right as to how to get something done that was in need of justice and the awareness for an innocent young woman" Naruto said.

"Thank you for hearing me your honor" Naruto said as he took a seat down as everyone murmured amongst themselves again before the judge banged his gavel to get everyone's attention.

"Yes well, if that's all that has to be said, I'm glad to hear" said the judge, "Naruto Uzumaki, arise".

Naruto had oblige and began to do so what the judge had said, "I hereby sentence you to 3 months in county jail, and a fine of $350. Dismissed" called the judge.

Naruto had slumped in his chair and stared at the table blankly, before Hiashi put a hand on the boys shoulder, "Look at it like this, you pay off with whatever money you have saved up, and in 3 months your friend will be just graduating from school" said Hiashi as he knew this would get Naruto's attention.

"What's even more, you'll be with your friend Gaara, and I know you both have a lot to catch up on" Hiashi said as he gathered his things and began to stand up.

"And who knows maybe there's still a bright future left for you after all" Hiashi said with a smile before he walked away as Naruto stood there and awaited to be booked.

As Hiashi made his exit, Naruto caught a glance and the expression on Hinata's face, and she looked very disbelief, and all he could do is once again turn his back on her when she deserved an explanation to know.

But this time Hinata made her way through and took the initiative, "Naruto!" she called out, as it gave the blonde to turn around and acknowledge her for the last time.

"Hey this is me we're talking about, and if I can come back from being a menace, then I sure as hell can come back from jail" Naruto said with his signature cheeky smile.

"Believe it!" shouted Naruto as he got to use the one phrase he hasn't said in over ages, before finally being escorted away as Hinata let out a tearful smile since both knew this was the last time they will ever see each other ever again.

Wow, I bet you guys weren't expecting that, but don't worry all will be concluded by the next chapter.

I know it was a pretty short chapter, but if trying to make perfection, don't do anything that would stray too far off from it.

As always suicide is never the answer, if you, a friend, or relative feel or show tendencies of suicide, please seek immediate help, and remember, you are not alone.

Other than that we're down to one last final chapter, and I hope you guys are excited as me to see how this story concludes.

With love and hope from your Humble Narrator.
