A/N: Hey everyone. I noticed some of you may be confused on chapters missing. I'm not sure what happened myself. All I did was remove the announcement chapter.
Anyways! On with the fic!
Chapter 12: Servant
Hanging out on the roof of Beacon was a great idea. Things were relatively peaceful. Blake and Pyrrha were friends once more, Yang was having a lazy day, Nora was currently sleeping off all the sugar she burnt off, and Ren was napping beside her. Ruby and Jaune could say this was a good day while reading a few doujins close to the edge of the roof.
"WE'RE THOUGH!" They cursed Murphy and his stupid law.
The whole group listened behind the entrance of the roof to hear a blue haired teen on his knees while following a certain heiress as she tapped her foot furiously on the concrete floor.
"Please!" Neptune begged. "It was nothing but harmless flirting."
"And that's the problem!" Weiss yelled. "You always flirt with any girl! It doesn't even matter to you that I'm in the same area."
"What a doofus." Sun said while shaking his head. Everyone else agreed with him. Ruby and Jaune were currently ignoring them and just continued reading.
"Shouldn't you help her?" The blonde knight said, never taking his eyes off the book he was reading.
"Meh." The little reaper shrugged. "It was bound to happen sometime. Like with Blake and Sun. They rushed into things without properly getting to know one another in time. Besides; it's not my job as a leader to be a love counselor."
Giving a shrug, the two continued to enjoy their good time.
"I'm liking this knight character." Ruby said, turning a page. "He's almost like you, but with a bit more backbone."
"I think he needs to loosen up a bit." He gave his opinion. "His background is great, but having that serious face all the time kind of makes him a bit boring."
"To each their own, I guess." As she was about to give her opinion on the golden bowman, Weiss shouting even more but with a few sobs interrupted her. "Aww man! Now she's crying. …I gotta take this."
"You do that." As Ruby got up, she noticed her friend was sitting on her cape. Not wanting to disturb him, she gave it a forceful tug to slide it out. She was successful, but she also managed to pull Jaune off balance to where he slipped off the roof.
"AAAAAAAAH!" THUD!
The fight on the other side was halted as the bickering couple raced in to see all their friends minus one blonde knight looking down the edge of the roof.
"What happened?" The bluenette asked in shock. Weiss walked forward to see what they were all looking at. Hearing her gasp in shock, Neptune followed to see Jaune laying on the ground floor spread-eagled and unconscious. "How?!"
Ignoring him, they all ran out the door to get down to the bottom floor. Ruby was the first to reach Jaune's fallen form using her semblance. Looking him over, she was happy to see he was still breathing. A faint glow that was disappearing showed that his aura had shielded him from anything too serious. But the impact must have caused some serious pain.
"He's still alive!" she breathed out. "His aura protected him, but I think he's in shock."
"We'll need to bring him to the infirmary." Sun said concerned. As he tried to lift Jaune out of the ground, he heard a crunching sound that made everyone flinch. "OK! SOME OF HIS BONES ARE BROKEN!"
"Allow me." Using her semblance, Pyrrha was able to pick him up gently and had help leading him to the infirmary. They were getting a few stares, but once they saw it was team RWBY and JNPR, everyone just went back to doing their business. Just another day in Beacon.
"You think he'll be alright?" Ruby asked in concern. Everyone knew she blamed herself, but knew telling her it wasn't her fault wouldn't put her at ease.
"He'll be fine sis." Yang said while putting an arm around her. "Maybe you can keep him company while he recovers."
"That's a great idea Yang." Pyrrha supported. "I'm sure Jaune would be happy to know you stayed by his side while he healed."
"But what can I do while he heals?" Ruby asked still sad.
"Maybe you could read to him those comics you two were talking about." Blake suggested. Since Ruby was feeling horrible, the two rivals/friends silently put their differences aside to let the little reaper have some peace of mind. They'd let Ruby have her time with Jaune until he wakes up.
As the days went by, Ruby continued to read to Jaune. It was a bit of a challenge since she had to describe what the characters were doing. It was also embarrassing on her part to make the sound effects while the nurses listened in. Getting positive reinforcement from them helped her continue reading to him.
During his time healing, Pyrrha had brought it upon herself to polish Jaune's armor. She had used a different polisher by mistake, so his once white armor had now become gray. While washing Jaune's hoodie, Nora had took it upon herself to add a whole gallon of bleach and mixed the colors. His hoodie was now a shade of blue while his pants were now a bit whiter.
After two days, Jaune had finally awoken to see Ruby resting her head on his lap and giving a few cute snores. Smiling at the scene, he gently rubbed her head and poked her cheek to wake her.
Wrinkling her nose at the poke, Ruby awoke to see Jaune staring at her with an empty look in his eyes. Rubbing the sleep out of her eyes and giving a yawn Ruby was now fully awake.
"JAUNE!" Realizing that Jaune was now awake, Ruby's eyes widened and started to panic in excitement. "You're awake! You're alive! Gotta call the others. Oh man! This is great!"
After a few minutes, their whole team except Weiss burst through the infirmary doors to see the healed knight themselves. Weiss was currently outside having another argument with Neptune. He had been continuously trying to win her back.
"Hey Jaune." Nore greeted nervously while holding his now blue and white clothing. "I …tried to wash your clothes, but the washing machine magically turned them a new color. …Ta-dah!"
"I-I also brought your armor." Pyrrha said just as nervous. "I'm sorry if the color is different. I didn't know the alloy your armor had was different from what was prescribed on the polish."
Not saying anything, Jaune simply changed his clothing while the others turned to give him privacy. If the others paid close attention, they would have noticed Blake and Pyrrha secretly taking a picture with their scrolls on silent. The only sounds that could be heard were the shuffling of clothes.
"I told you that it's over Neptune!" Weiss said, breaking the silence. "I can't take any more of you and you're attitude."
"Please! Just give me a chance." He begged. "I can show you that I can change. Just tell me what you want."
"Sorry about the noise Jaune." Ruby whispered uncomfortably. "They're still going at it."
He made no response to that, as he finished putting his armor on. His eyes were still half-lidded and empty.
"I JUST WANT TO BE IN A RELATIONSHIP I CAN SAVOR!" Weiss cried in the halls. Jaune's eyes widened, before he looked at the door. "SAVOR! YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS, RIGHT?"
"Jaune?" Pyrrha said uncertain as she saw her crush walk to the door. She felt something was off about him. The way he moved was different. Opening the door, Jaune and the others were introduced to a sight of Weiss with a few tears and Neptune holding her hands with a pleading look.
Hearing the door creak, the fighting couple saw the now blue-clad knight staring at them. The light from the room gave him a noble and royal look as he stared them down.
"Hey Jaune. Sorry about the noise. How are- guhaaa!" Neptune never got to finish his greeting as Jaune palm thrust him away from Weiss and into a wall. Everyone was surprised at what had happened. The normally laid-back and goofy knight had struck one of their friends.
"Jaune?" Ruby called out. She was ignored as said knight was looking at Weiss with a calculating gaze.
"The Servant Sabre has arrived." Jaune said in a different tone. It was similar to Adviser Arc, but had a noble feel to it. "I hath come in response to thy summon."
No one could believe what they were seeing. Turning to Ruby, all they got was a sheepish grin and a nervous chuckle.
"I ask thee." Jaune continued in a noble tone. "Art thou my master?"
Weiss couldn't answer him. It could have been the insanity of what was going on or the stress of Neptune hounding her for another chance. But part of her felt it was because she was awestruck by the thought of seeing Jaune in a handsome light.
Blake and Pyrrha on the other hand were seething with fury. They thought Jaune had finally gotten over the white ice b***h, and now here he was again trying to get on her good side. To make things worse, they could clearly see the blush growing on the ice queen's face.
"Ruby?" Ren whispered. "What did you do?"
"What makes you think this is my fault?" She asked indignantly. The others gave her a flat look. "Nothing! All I did was read to Jaune while he slept. That's all."
Turning to get the books on the nightstand, Blake and Pyrrha scanned over the whole volumes. Looking at Ruby then to Jaune, they were now angry for another reason.
'That could have been me!' They thought in envy.
"What are you talking about Arc?" Weiss said, composing herself. "You are no servant of mine! And I am sure I did not summon you."
"Thou hast called out my name a few seconds ago." He countered.
"When?" She asked infuriated. Thinking back, she remembered the words that left her lips prior to him arriving. 'Savor? …Sabre. …He misheard me! The dolt.'
"I did not say your name." She growled. "I said savor. S-A-V-O-R."
"Then can I have him?" Ruby, Pyrrha, and Blake shouted. Turning to the youngest girl who was giving a small grin, the two raised a brow. "…I wanna be the crafter that can make awesome weapons with a servant that's too OP for me."
Turning back to Jaune and Weiss, Yang was enjoying the show seeing Weiss getting flustered by Jaune of all people.
"I don't want you to be my servant!" Weiss shouted. "There's got to be a way for me to get out of this. How do I send you to be someone else's servant?"
"Normally master, thy death would be the most quickest way." Hearing this, Weiss turned to see Pyrrha and Blake contemplating whether to go through with the idea.
"Any other ways?" Pyrrha looked like she was ready to use the pillow while Blake was holding a vase.
"Thou may surrender thyself in defeat." The knight said in thought. "But that could not be. My master is a proud and noble woman who would never turn away from a battle."
"Y-you really think I'm all those things?" She said with a faint pink on her cheeks.
"Only those who are worthy could summon a Saber Class." Jaune said with determination. "Thou art worthy to be my master."
"DUDE!" Neptune said, gaining consciousness. "Not cool. First you knock me out, and then you flirt with my girlfriend."
"We're not together anymore Vasillas!" Weiss grumbled stomping her foot. "It's over!"
"Just give me one more chance. Please?" Neptune said on all fours. "I admit I've been insensitive to your feelings. I want to prove I can be better."
Looking to her ex-boyfriend on the floor, then to Jaune, the gears in Weiss's head were turning. "…Fine."
"Baby please. Don't be like that! We could- did you say yes?" Neptune said in surprise. Everyone was shocked as well. They really thought this was the end of the iceberg.
"Yes." She confirmed. Before he could jump in joy, she added one more thing. "BUT! The whole time we are together, Jau- Sabre, will be with us to show you what it truly means to be a proper boyfriend."
"But he's never dated anyone before!" he argued. "How's he supposed to show me how to be a proper boyfriend? No offence bro."
"Thy words doth mean anything to me so long as they doeth no harm to my master." Jaune said with eyes shut.
"What?" Neptune couldn't understand Jaune's ye old way of speech.
"You see." Weiss said with a smirk. "Proper boyfriend."
"But he didn't stick up for himself!" he argued. "And I'd understand him more if he could talk properly."
"…I guess we'll have to fix that." Weiss agreed to the dismay of Blake. "Sabre. From now on you will speak like the rest of us."
"Is that thy command master?" Getting a silent plea from Blake not to change him, Weiss gave a small apology before confirming. "Very well. I shall speak in a way you find fitting master."
"It would also be fitting if you didn't call me master." Weiss said, remembering how she used to order he servants back home. "I prefer if you called me by my name. Weiss."
"As you wish… Weiss." Jaune said, testing the name in his mouth. Suddenly, to the shock of all of them, he dropped to one knee. "…It would seem my energy is low mas-Weiss."
"What do you want me to do about it?" She asked in a small panic.
Remembering a part of the book that described how servants got their energy restored fully, Blake and Pyrrha were about to volunteer themselves as tribute. Sadly, Ruby had beaten them to it.
"You just need to feed him." She said in a casual tone. "That's how the characters in the doujin do it."
"That sounds simple." Weiss said with a calculating smile while looking at her maybe soon to be ex. "And this will also be a good opportunity for Neptune to take us out."
"I have to treat the both of you?" he asked. "Why can't he treat himself?"
"Since he is my servant, he is an extension of me." Weiss said with a smarmy grin. "To ignore him is the same as to ignore me."
"I am happy you think of me as such Weiss." Sabre said with a small smile.
"Fine." He grumbled. The others secretly chose to follow to see how things would play out.
A Simple Wok
"You chose this place to treat us?" Weiss grumbled. The others were hidden behind a pole and shook their heads at Neptune's choice. "I have no problem with the food, but this doesn't really serve as a great place for a date."
"I would have taken you to a fancier restaurant," Neptune started. "but then that would mean I took Jaune out on a date too."
Looking at the now blue-clad knight, the couple saw him eating noodles at a quick pace while keeping a refined air. He was currently on his third bowl.
"The noodles are soft and firm at the same time. The stickiness is right to the point the sauce coats it evenly while still sliding through the lips with ease. This is much more than a simple wok." Jaune marveled at his meal. Looking up to the old man, he gave him a thumbs up. "Good job good sir."
"W-well. It's nice to be shown some appreciation. It's really nothing special. It's just how I normally cook this." The old man said with a smile while puffing his chest out in pride. "Since you like it that much, why don't I give you the next bowl at half price?"
Neptune was cheering for his wallet's sake.
"I couldn't possibly do that to you kind sir. We will pay the normal price like any normal customer." Now he was crying for his wallet's demise.
While Neptune was crying, a few girls had entered the establishment while giggling at the sight of him. Looking up, Neptune thought it would help his feelings of despair to address them.
"Ladies." He said while giving a charming grin and a finger point. Weiss stepped on his foot before walking out with Jaune following. "Weiss, wait!"
"Erhm!" Looking back, the bluenette saw the owner looking at him while holding his hand out with a check. "Pay up."
Seeing the price, Neptune handed his whole wallet over before chasing after the two.
With Jaune and Weiss
"The nerve of that guy!" Weiss growled out loud. "He say's he's going to change, and then he flirts with other women while I'm right next to him."
"Would you like me to terminate him Weiss?" the blonde knight said with a neutral gaze.
"No talking from you!" she shouted with a few tears in her eyes. "…Sorry. I'm just feeling hurt. I didn't mean to take it out on you."
"As your servant, it is my duty to see that you are always okay Weiss." Weiss looked behind the knight to see that the others hadn't followed them.
"J-. …Sabre? I want you to be honest with me." Weiss said in a small voice. "Am I …not enough?"
"I do not follow what you are asking Weiss." He replied honestly.
"…Am I not enough for someone? I know I'm not that …well endowed as most girls, but …I like to think that I'm okay with just myself." She said looking at her feet. "Is it not enough that I'm me?"
"I believe you are much more." Jaune said while lifting her head. The two did not notice Neptune or the others getting close to them. "As my master, there is nothing I see in you that is a flaw. I have not known you for long now, but a part of me says that you are beyond enough. Not perfection, but something more real that others would stand by you."
Weiss was staring with wide eyes at him. For a moment, she forgot she was staring at Jaune Arc and was looking at Sabre: her servant. The others who were following had heard the last two sentences that he said. While the girls were staring in wonder and awe at the sight of Weiss being a complete pink; Neptune was looking down in guilt.
"Weiss." Neptune called out. "I'm sorry. I really am. I do like you. I really do. If you could put up with me for just a bit more, I know I can correct myself. Please?"
Looking over to Sabre, then looking back to Neptune; Weiss stayed silent for a minute to think of an answer. "…This is the final chance you'll ever get."
"Yes!" The intellectual said while pumping a fist. Before he could get close to her, Sabre had placed a hand on his chest to stop him form getting closer. "Huh?"
"I'll be giving you another chance," Weiss said with hands on her hips. "But I didn't say we could go back to how things were. For now, I'm going to have you punished while learning something."
"What?" he said flabbergasted. She watched as Weiss stepped closer to Sabre and wrapped her arms around his free hand. "What're you-?"
"Sabre and I will go on a date." She explained. Pyrrha and Blake were silently seething, but wanted to see the playboy punished. "You will be following us to see how he acts. Maybe you'll learn something from watching him."
"This is almost sounding like you're cheating on me with me watching the whole thing." Neptune cried.
"I guess you'll know how I feel whenever you blatantly flirt with other women in front of me." She snarked back. The others were now on her side. They would not interfere with the date, but would still follow them.
"Weiss. I don't particularly know what a date is." Jaune cut in. "But it sounds like I need funding that I don't have."
Weiss grumbled at that. "Just for today …I'll be the one to pay for things."
"Looks like he's not making a good start." Neptune teased. "Should I copy that too?"
"Just shut up and observe." Weiss growled. Yang had her scroll out and was recording the whole thing. Thinking of a place to start, Weiss remembered a place that gave great discounts to dates and couples.
A few minutes later
"Hey!" Shouted a certain female manager. "If it isn't the rookie."
Weiss and Jaune were currently at the restaurant he worked in as a butler. Neptune was behind them the whole time while the others had already gone inside in excitement.
"Looks like the probably you told me became a solid yes." Teased the manager while looking Jaune and Weiss over. "Your date is looking cute today too. So, who is she? How'd you meet?"
"She is my master." Jaune said with a smile. Weiss had to hide her face from the many people that were looking at her strangely. She was about to stop him from answering, but was too slow to stop him. "And I answered to her call in her time of need."
"…Alright!" She said with a forced smile. "I knew you'd get someone in a weird fashion, but I didn't think it was this weird. You Hunters and your weird romances. Anyway, go grab a seat and we'll have your menus in a minute."
Following a waiter who guided them to a table, Weiss had to hide a blush at the many stares people were sending her. Neptune was two tables over watching the whole thing with a smirk.
"Did you have to tell her how we met, Sabre?" She whispered in embarrassment. "It was really embarrassing!"
"I don't see anything embarrassing about the truth Weiss." Jaune said confused. "You are my master and I am your protector. I answered to your call and would put you over myself."
"Still!" Weiss cried silently. After a few seconds a waiter had come over with their menus. Looking them over, Weiss had opted to share a plate of sandwiches with some frozen bananas as a dessert. Their orders were said to arrive in fifteen minutes. During that time, Weiss decided to ask Sabre about himself.
"I want to know something." She said in a forced casual tone. "What makes you think I am worthy of being your master?"
"…I don't know." Jaune said looking her in the eye. "But for some reason, I hear something in my mind telling me how great you are."
"R-really?" she said uncertain. 'Is this how Jaune really thinks of me?'
"Yes." He continues. "I get memories of you battling evil and coming out triumphant each time. Other memories show you alone and sad when you believe no one is looking. Then there are more showing you striving hard to be an epitome of perfection. And the voice that sounds like my own starts shouting to be near you. Saying that you need help."
'So that's why he's always trying to be a friend.' She thought while looking down. Hearing him calling to her, Weiss looked back up. "Yes?"
"I would also like to ask you a question." Getting an approval, he continued. "…Why do I have these memories? And why do some bring a small pain to my heart each time I see you walking away?"
"…" Weiss could not answer it. 'Think Weiss! You've tried reading those doujins as much as Ruby. Try to think your way out of this!'
"I can't answer that for you Sabre." She said with forced control. "But maybe you can yourself. …Who do you think you are? You are not just Sabre. Who are you?"
"…" Jaune was looking down in deep thought. After a few minutes, he looked up to her. "I am …Jaune Arc. Pri-."
"Here are your orders!" Said a cheery waitress holding their food.
"Thank you." The two said at the same time. As the waitress zipped off, Weiss turned back to Jaune for him to continue but saw him ready to eat. Forgetting about it, she decided to join him.
"So what other memories do you have?" Weiss prompted, putting down a sandwich.
"Some are a bit hazy." He said, enjoying the time they were having. "For some reason, I seem to have a memory of being slapped by someone who looks like an older version of you. I wonder if that is what you'd look like after a few years."
"DO YOU REALLY THINK SO?" Weiss said in excitement, standing to lean over to him. She does admire her sister, and getting a compliment that she would look almost like her in looks and figure would be great. Remembering where she was, she sat back down and cleared her throat. "Sorry. But do you really think that image you have is how I will look. Maybe after a few years?"
"…Maybe." He said unsure. "I would think by the time you reach eighteen or twenty."
Weiss was having confetti and Vale's national anthem playing in her mind as a tiny version of her was cheering. 'Yes! I'll no longer be the washboard! Suck it Xiao Long!'
"I thank you for the vote of confidence." She said after coughing into her hand. Turning toward the bluenette watching them, she gave a half-hearted wave before turning back to her date. "I really hope I do turn out like how you say."
Sharing stories of her own, Weiss was happy for once to know that someone was actually listening. Whenever she was told Neptune a story, he would just nod or look away. When she asked him an opinion, she would just get a nod or a 'yes.'
But with Sabre, he asked how it came to be or what was the whole context of the story. Turning to Neptune once more, she saw he was having a thin frown on his face while looking at the two of them. The frown soon turned into a winning smirk.
"Hey there handsome." Came a voice from Weiss's left. Looking over, she saw a busty brunette leaning in close and flirting with Sabre. "What's a handsome devil like you eating with a stick like her?"
"Erhm!" Weiss cleared loudly. Looking away from the blonde, the bombshell stared at her with an uncaring look.
"Do you mind? We are currently on a date." Weiss growled out.
"I'm sure this strong man here doesn't mind at all. Do you?" She responded while trailing a finger over Sabre's jaw line.
'MEN! They're all the same.' Weiss was close to walking out in anger.
"I actually do mind." Jaune said in a bored tone. "You're ruining Weiss's time, and I don't like it."
"Fine!" she snapped while standing up straight. "You're not all that much to look at anyway."
As the bimbo left, Sabre turned to look back at his date who was currently looking at him weirdly. "What?"
"Nothing." She said unsure. "It's just that …she was a lot prettier than me. Wasn't she?"
"Nope." Jaune said in a bored tone. "Truthfully, she looked boring to me."
"W-what?" Weiss said in surprise. A few more tables over; Pyrrha, Blake, and Yang were both overjoyed with his actions but concerned with the comment. Did that mean he was interested in flat girls? "But she was curvy. And mature looking!"
"Her makeup was horrible, she smelled of too much perfume, and the way she talked sounded like she had an ulterior motive." He listed off his reason.
'Wow' was all she could say. Turning back to Neptune, she had a winning smirk seeing him look slack-jawed as she turned back to her date.
"So Sabre!" Weiss said in excitement while clapping her hands together. "After this, why not go to an amusement park?"
A few minutes later
Streets of Vale
Ruby and the others were following via rooftop after the restaurant. Blake and Pyrrha were seething the whole time while the sisters enjoyed their regular meal.
"You get the feeling that Neptune is close to snapping?" Ruby asked while zooming her scope on the bluenette.
"I'm not sure what that will accomplish." Yang said unconcerned. She was still recording Weiss's date. "Before we left I had a talk with the doctors on his condition. He's still Jaune at the moment. But any inhibitions he had is gone now."
"So you're saying he'll beat Neptune down without holding back?" Ruby summed up. "Good thing we didn't give him his sword."
Zooming in on Jaune , Ruby saw he had his sword. "HOW?"
Blake and Pyrrha never met her gaze.
Back to Jaune and Weiss, they were currently a few blocks away from the amusement park when Neptune finally snapped. After seeing Weiss look back at him countless times with a smarmy grin and latching even closer to Jaune, he had enough.
"OK!" He shouted, marching in between them. "I get it! I was being a jerk to you. You guys can stop now."
"I don't know." Weiss said in a teasing voice. "After being on a date where I'm the center of attention, I think I should just stick with my current date and forget giving you that chance."
"Oh come on!" Neptune said in disbelief. The girls that were spying knew that she was kidding. At least, that was what Blake and Pyrrha were hoping. "What do I have to do? Fight him for your hand?"
"FIGHT! FIGHT! FIGHT! KISS! KISS! KISS!" Yang shouted a rooftop away.
"Are you sure you wish to challenge me?" Sabre said, drawing his blade out. Neptune would have accepted the duel, but forgot to bring his weapon. Looking Sabre in the eye, he could tell there was no holding back.
"Now I know what you're thinking." Neptune said nervously. "Should I slice him? And the answer may surprise you."
"…I'm hearing a yes." Taking a step closer, Neptune was prepared to fight dirty but was relieved when Weiss stopped the blonde knight. "Yes?"
"You don't need to fight him." She said in a quiet tone. Turning back to Neptune, her eyes were narrowed. "I'll talk with you later. We'll be meeting near the statue at Beacon at 8. Don't be late. …Now let's go Sabre. I'd like to try some of the games before heading to the Ferris Wheel last."
"…Okay." Walking off, he glanced back to see the two heading into the amusement park.
Rooftop
"Well that was a thing." The blonde brawler commented. "I really thought things would come to blows."
"Yeah. But poor Neptune." Ruby said with pity.
"He deserved it." Blake said in a huff. Pyrrha agreed with her while still spying on the two using her scope.
"I think the two of them deserve each other." She gritted out. Ruby and Yang looked at her confused, but Blake understood who she was talking about.
In the Carnival
An hour and a half later
The two were currently in the Ferris Wheel enjoying the scenery of Vale as the sun was setting. Weiss had won a stuffed shark during their time playing a few games. As it turned out, Sabre couldn't see the point in some of the games and was always caught surprised by the games itself to her amusement. She still couldn't believe she was on a date with Jaune Arc. Technically he thought he was someone else, but it was still him in some sense.
"This was a great day Sabre." She commented while moving to sit closer to him.
"I enjoyed this day too." He said, looking to her.
Closing her eyes, she leaned in closer to kiss him, but was stopped by a hand on her shoulder. The word he said next shocked her. "No."
"W-what? Why?" She was hurt. They were having a good time. Was he leading her on the whole time?
"You're still unsure of yourself Weiss." He answered.
"I'm not unsure." She said in huff. "I do want this! Me doing it shows I want it!"
"No it doesn't." He said calmly.
"Yes it does!" She shouted. "I'm your master. Don't make me turn it into an order."
"You wouldn't do it." He said sure of himself. "You are not the kind of person to force it."
"…Why?" She said, tearing up. "Am I really not that enough that you of all people wouldn't want to kiss me?"
"You still have feelings for him." Sabre said in a hurt tone. Hearing it, Weiss could see Sabre was looking down to his hands while clutching his legs tightly. "Even after you yourself said how much pain he gives you, you still hold him dearly."
"I-I don't." She lied to herself. "What could make you think I still have feelings for him!"
"Throughout our whole date, you have always looked back to him while I watched." He said letting a few tears slip. "Even when he had challenged me you were quick to save him from my blade. …It truly shows that you still care for him. And I can understand how painful it is for you whenever he does those things."
Weiss couldn't believe it. Through her acts, she herself had done the same thing Neptune had been doing to her. Seeing Sabre in pain, Weiss hesitantly brought him into a hug. "I'm so sorry. …I am not worthy to be your master."
Letting go, she swallowed her pride for what she was about to say next. "Servant Sabre! I command you to return to the others and find a new master. I …surrender myself in defeat. I am no longer worthy of being your master."
Standing up, Sabre looked down at his former master before jumping off the Ferris Wheel and sliding down one of it's rails to the shock of a few citizens.
"Now what?" She said uncertain to no one. "I guess I'll see Neptune."
Back at the rooftop
Thanks to Blake's hearing and Pyrrha bringing a bionic ear, they were able to hear the conversation while spying through their scopes.
"Like I said," Pyrrha said bitterly. "They deserve each other."
The others looked at the white haired girl in contempt.
A few days later
Weiss and Neptune had a serious talk about their relationship and were able to patch things up after finding some common ground. Neptune promised not to blatantly flirt with any woman he sees without considering her feelings, and Weiss would try to be less demanding.
Jaune had gotten his memory back. Whatever events happened while he was Sabre was unknown to him. Keeping the clothes in his closet, he was able to find an exact replica of his hoodie online and found a polish that would turn his armor white again. He wondered why RBY and NPR were looking at Weiss and Neptune in distaste for a while, but after a while where he had a talk with them, things were semi-normal once more. From time to time, he would feel some form of pain whenever he was alone with Weiss, but he ignored it. It's not like a part of him was still in love with her right?

"I don't want you to be my servant!" Weiss shouted. "There's got to be a way for me to get out of this. How do I send you to be someone else's servant?"
"Normally master, thy death would be the most quickest way." Hearing this, Weiss turned to see Pyrrha and Blake contemplating whether to go through with the idea.
"Any other ways?" Pyrrha looked like she was ready to use the pillow while Blake was holding a vase.
"Thou may surrender thyself in defeat." The knight said in thought. "But that could not be. My master is a proud and noble woman who –"
"I SURRENDER!"
Blake was quick to snatch Jaune away and be his master. He would recover his memories in a few days, but before that happened, she made sure to 'replenish his mana' vigorously each time after training.
"And that's how your father got me pregnant!" Blake tole her children while wearing pigtails and a red sweater.

Pyrrha had sucke-punched Blake before grabbing Jaune and jumping out of the window. Team JNPR's dorm was heavily barricaded with the other two members sitting outside. The moans and creaks of beds lasted for hours. By the time Glynda had taken all the barricades down, it was sure that the Amazon was pregnant.
"And that's how we got expelled. On the good news, my parents were elated they had you three." Pyrrha told her triplets with her hair down and wearing a brown turtleneck sweater.

True Name
"I can't answer that for you Sabre." She said with forced control. "But maybe you can yourself. …Who do you think you are? You are not just Sabre. Who are you?"
"…" Jaune was looking down in deep thought. After a few minutes, he looked up to her. "I am …Jaune Arc. Pri-."
"Here are your orders!" Said a cheery waitress holding their food.
"Thank you." The two said at the same time. As the waitress zipped off, Weiss turned back to Jaune to see he was still staring at her. "You were saying?"
"I am Jaune Arc." He repeated. Weiss knew that already. "Prince of Arcadia and next heir to the throne. Beloved brother to seven wonderful sisters."
Blake was currently bashing her head against her table. She was one of the few who recognized him as the runaway prince. She even added it in her modified Ninjas of Love book. Looking at Weiss, she saw she was looking at their table.
"DIBS!" She shouted while clinging onto Jaune's arm.
"And that's how I became queen of Arcadia." Weiss said while looking at her two children.

A/N: A review I read talked about a Saber Jaune, so I thought I'd bring it out early. Maoyuu will be on the 15th chapter, so no worries.
