AN: Team CRDL according to the polls out of three votes two were for them to get better, only one for worse. So I think that they'll get better after a small period of being worse. Also this is a filler chapter that doesn't impact the story except introducing two OCs that will make another appearance in the tournament, so you can skip it if you want. I figured that I'd at least have the decency to warn you. Thanks again to nightblade546 for Biluo, and SupportTheTeam for Amber.

I stood at the air docks with the ensemble of first year guys that I'd managed to gather today. We had Jaune, Ren, a dude named Amber Pleasant a hawk Faunus, a guy named Biluo Hong a wolf Faunus, and myself. Amber, and Biluo are two Faunus from team AMBR a strictly Faunus team who Cardin and his team would throw rocks at as they walked around campus. They seemed cool, Amber is a little reserved while his partner Biluo is one of the most laid back people I've met. I recruited them to drive Jaune and Ren. I don't feel safe having passengers on the Behemoth until my arm heals, and Biluo has a kickass sports car that seats four. Convincing them to party with us wasn't hard, Biluo was on board from the start under the condition that we give him money for gas. Amber decided to come as an opportunity to help with his shyness. I guess Ren came to make sure his leader didn't get too crazy.

"Ok I know a club that sells booze too minors if they are hunter in training, so everyone have your student IDs ready?" They all nodded. "Okay then. Follow me when we leave the garage. We should get there in about 45 minutes." I say and we board the Bullhead.

Our time of arrival at the club was 10:30PM which is early by clubbing standards. It was the club I met Yang at the day my parents kicked me out. We strolled in to the club and headed to the bar after deciding that Ren was their designated driver I could figure something out later that nigh. He didn't mind the arrangement.

"Hello Bartender, five shots of whatever you recommend for celebration." I told the man behind the counter.

"Wait five, Ren is the DD, shouldn't he like not drink?" Biluo asked me somewhat puzzled.

"One shot shouldn't hurt anything." I say from experience as the bartender slid me the shots after confirming our Beacon student status.

We took the shots and decided to wait until we seen what this did before drinking more. We hit the dance floor after about two minutes.

"Don't be shy Jaune we came here to get drunk and dance with strangers that we'll probably never see again." I said with a slap to Jaune's back as I found someone to dance with.

She didn't look bad by any standards I'd give her a 7 out of 10. Eventually after he took about five more shots of liquid encouragement Jaune joined the party on the dance floor. I have to say he was killing it, dancing alone maybe, but killing it none the less. He and Ren were both like human dance machines. Amber was sitting at a table with a set of twins who were pouring him drinks, I think they work here. After about twenty minutes we all joined Amber at his table.

"Man I don't know about you guys, but I'm ready for more shots." Biluo said

"Fuck it why not?" I say as I have one of the waitress twins who do actually work here for six shots of whiskey. Ren just got a soda, Jaune got two more shots of rum, Amber suddenly got a huge smile on his face and got more tequila which is what the twins were serving him, and Biluo got some vodka.

'This might not end so well.' I thought reviewing what everyone ordered.

After those shots Amber got up and said "I'll be right back guys, this party needs chicks desperately." Leaving the rest of us dumbfounded at his sudden change in demeanor.

The once shy dude returned five minutes later with a veritable army of women of all ages behind him.

"Ladies these are my friends I was telling you all about." Our jaws dropped at the sheer number of females he'd returned with, even Ren who thought he'd never be surprised again after putting up with Nora for more than a decade.

"Remember kids this is why you don't give tequila to a shy dude, he becomes a man that would make Casanova jealous." The fourth wall means nothing once my blood alcohol level reaches a certain point.

"Hector who the fuck are you talking to?" Biluo asked me with the most confused look ever.

"The readers."

"Who?"

"Just a drunken habit that you should ignore."

"Okay I guess."

We suddenly found ourselves overwhelmed. We ended up telling them to leave about seven minutes later after they started buying Ren shots and making him drink them. After another round of shots I blacked out.

The next morning

Jaune's POV

I awoke in Biluo's car with a pounding headache. "What happened?" I ask Ren who was the only one awake.

"We seem to have all blacked out. I haven't heard from Hector yet and it's noon. According to his team neither have they."

"Are you telling me that we lost Hector?" I look around the car and make sure nobody else is missing, thankfully they aren't.

"In short, yes."

"So how did team RWBY take it?"

"Yang's on her way to kill us." Ren said as calmly as ever.

"Wait what?!"I yell causing my headache to flare up and waking the rest of the car up.

"Stop screaming." Biluo said as he rolled into a sitting position.

A pained groan is all we got from Amber as he sat up.

"Dudes I don't think you understand. We lost Hector, and Yang's gonna kill us all." I say panicked.

"Calm down. Ren switch me." Biluo said getting out of the car and switching seats with Ren.

We drove to a gas station and picked up some sports drinks and sandwiches.

"Has anyone tried just calling him?" Biluo asked after our hangovers disappeared.

"I did about ten minutes before you all woke up." Ren said.

"I'll call again." I say digging out my scroll and dialing Hector's number, only to hear it ringing in the car.

"Well that explains why he didn't pick up earlier. We should head back to the club, maybe he went there after not finding his scroll."

"Good idea." Amber said as we all loaded back up.

We arrived at the club and didn't see his chopper. After a quick look around that yielded no results we got back in the car.

"Maybe someone in his contacts knows where he's at?" Biluo said tempting me to look through his scroll.

I pulled out his scroll and thankfully it didn't have a password. I looked through his contacts and found only five numbers other than team RWBY's. One labeled Sis 1, another labeled Sis 2, one labeled Ozpin the Great and Powerful, one labeled Grandpa, and another labeled Cowardly Bastard. I decided to call one of his sisters.

"Hello? Hector what was wrong last night?" The girl on the other end asked thinking that I was her brother.

"Sorry about this, but I'm not Hector. I was kind of wondering if you could help us find him. I'm Jaune Arc by the way." I said pleading for any lead I could get.

"I'm Ceara. All I know is that he came here last night and punched our dad for seemingly no reason said something about a hill and then left." She said in a worried voice.

"Yeah I think he was drunk." An almost identical voice in the background yelled.

"He was drunk, we were with him and now we can't find him. Do you know what hill he could be talking about?" I ask.

"Unless he was talking about Memorial Hill where our brother Alistair is buried then no." She said.

"Thanks for your help. I'll keep you posted if anything comes up." I say as I hang up.

"She sounded cute." Biluo said I guess he heard her because of his wolf ears.

"If Hector said that he'd castrate you. His sisters are eleven."

"They sound awfully grown up for eleven." He said in surprise.

"Yeah you're right. But anyway you heard her Memorial Hill and punch it we need to find him before Yang finds us." I say reminding everyone of the impending danger currently searching for us.

We made our way to memorial hill it's now 3:00PM, we were running out of leads. Nobody was there, we almost lost hope until my scroll rang in my pocket.

"Hello." I say as I answer the call.

"Hey Jaune. Have you seen my scroll anywhere?" Hector of all people asked me from the other end.

"Hector!? Where the hell have you been!?" I yell in exasperation causing Biluo to swerve a bit in surprise.

"Damn man not so fucking loud. I made it to beacon and Goodwitch found me passed out on the sidewalk and had me taken to the infirmary. They just released me. Now have you seen my scroll or not?" He asked in obvious pain.

"Yeah it's in my pocket. But why wait until now to call?"

"I got seriously fucked up last night. I just woke up a half an hour ago. I called you as soon as they released me. They had to make sure I wasn't in some huge fight or anything."

"That makes sense. You need to call Yang before she finds us and kills us for losing you."

"Dude she's laughing her ass off because you fell for that. My team knew that I was in the infirmary, dude they don't send you to the infirmary without notifying your team. She pranked you, and she somehow got my sisters in on it."

"You mean to tell me she sent us on a wild goose chase for her own amusement."

"Yep. You Guys were nothing more than passengers on her elaborate ruse cruse. It was a good one if I do say so myself."

"I hate her sometimes."

"It happens. Anyway you guys should get back to Beacon soon." Hector said as we both hung up.

"ARE YOU KIDDING ME!?" I yelled as we turned to the road that will take us to the air docks.

AN: Sorry for the short chapter after such a long break. I had midterms to contend with, if it had been highschool it wouldn't have been a problem but collage is different. Next chapter will be out soon. As always I like reviews, tell me your opinion on who Hector should date either in a review or PM, and have a nice day.
