So here we go again. I am trying to get as many chapters written, before school starts up again, and because I already have plans for the sequel. Anyways, one problem I am having with this story is trying to make my character as close to me as possible, after all this is technically a self insert, but I have altered a lot of details such as the name, and my drinking, I don't ACTUALLY drink as much as my SI/OC, otherwise I would be dead by now.

That and I don't want to make him a Mary Sue, which is why I am trying to incorporate my own flaws into Jeremiah.

Basically I have to make it so I'm still believable as a human being, while also making the character entertaining, but not a white knight, make him interesting, but not boring people with details.

Anyways, here we go.

"Woooooowww." Ruby said as they gazed upon the city.

"Welcome to Rome." Grandmama said as they all looked upon the ancient city.

Remnant had its fair share of ancient ruins, but most of them were overrun by Grimm, so they were very hard to explore and see for yourself, but here was a world that was not overcome with Grimm, and they could see for themselves the beauty of the ancient world. And it was a sight to behold, so many structures that had been around since the time of the roman empire, all of it was preserved in order to make sure that the history of the romans would never be forgotten. How could people with nothing but hand tools build all of this? They must have been ambitious, especially when they looked upon the magnificent structures that lay before them.

"It's beautiful..." Winter said as she had never seen anything like it.

"The world is full of many magnificent sites." Jeremiah said as he had seen some fantastic things.

He remembered the time he traveled to Alaska, his favorite state. While he loved Texas, the absolute beauty of Alaska's wilderness trumped a lot of the sites in Texas. And now here he was in Rome, and he had to admit, the ancient city was a site to behold. You could read all about it, and look up pictures on the internet, and think you know all about it, but nothing could compare to seeing it in person. It was definitely something you wanted to see at least once in your lifetime.

"Where to first?" Nora asked as she had to admit, she was stunned as well.

"Well, first we have lunch, I know a fantastic restaurant close by, then I suppose we could tour the many museums and landmarks in the city, and of course, I have signed us all up for various activities, especially for you six." She said pointing to Winter, Jeremiah, Pyrrha, Jaune, Ren, and Nora.

"What do you mean?" Nora asked.

"Why dancing classes of course!" She said as Jeremiah froze up.

"Oh crap..." He said as Winter heard that.

"Why oh crap?" She asked wondering why he seemed worried.

"I...can't dance." He said as she raised an eyebrow.

"I would assume that is what classes are for." She said as he shook his head.

"Okay, I really am not the dancing type." He said as he only danced when he drank.

And frankly, no amount of alcohol could make up for the fact that there was a reason his friends referred to him as 'White as hell.'

"Oh relax Jerry, its nothing like breakdancing, its simple ballroom dancing." He said as it was now Nora's turn to be worried.

Jaune and Pyrrha were relaxed since they had already danced together before. Jaune had tried giving Jeremiah dancing lessons, but even then, he still needed a lot of work, and Jaune had not taught him ballroom dancing, just enough that he wouldn't look like an idiot at bars. And even then, he still wasn't that graceful.

"Come now, let us go and eat." Grandmama said as Nora looked over.

"I'm surprised, she actually goes to restaurants?" Nora always thought she was the 'Cook your own meals all day everyday type.'

"Only when back home in Italy, in her words 'The motherland knows how to do it right.'" Jeremiah said quoting his Grandmother.

MEANWHILE BACK HOME

"What the hell is wrong with these people?!" Roman said as he managed to escape from his chair. All while resisting the urge to laugh at Neo.

Apparently the lady who lived here was trying to spoil Neo because she was so cute. So Neo was now in a chair, with a bib attached to her with different types of food in front of her, while the lady was shoveling food into Neo's mouth. Neo wanted to get out and help Roman escape. Unforturnately, the crazy lady had homemade Neapolitan Ice cream, one of Neo's favorite foods, so of course she couldn't resist that. Needless to say, the fact that she hadn't moved from her seat, and the fact that she now looked like a little kid with ice cream smeared on her face, did not tie into the whole 'Evil villian' job at the moment.

"Okay, Neo, I'll try and find out where we-" Torchwick was cut off as he saw the crazy old guy from before.

"SURPRISE MOTHERFUCKER!" He said as he pulled a lever.

"Wait, where did that lever come FRROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMM!" Torchwich yelled as he fell through a hole in the floor.

"What the?! These people booby trapped their house?! What kind of nut house did we...oh my god, is that pie?" Neo thought as the old lady came by with a fresh baked pie.

"AH IT BURNS!" Roman yelled out as the crazy old guy face palmed.

"Damn it, he fell into the vat of moonshine...oh well, that shit will keep him tranquilized for a week." Pa proceeded to run down to the basement to beat the piss out of the orange hair girly man.

"Seriously, I should really be help-" Neo's thoughts were cut off by a piece of freshly baked apple pie being put in front of her.

"Now now, eat up, or you'll never grow big and strong!" Momma said in a child like voice.

"I swear to god, if you weren't feeding me, I would stab you." Neo glared as she took a bite out of the apple pie.

"But this is good food, BUT I AM NOT A CHILD!" Neo honestly hated being as short as she was.

She still couldn't ride Roller coasters without Roman being there to supervise her and be her Parent on those rides. It pissed her off to no end. And don't even get her started on the one time that bus driver wondered why she wasn't getting on the bus to go to elementary school. Seriously? She may be short, but she still looked older than twelve!

"Here comes the Choo Choo Train!" Momma said as she had a fork with a bit of pie.

"YOU DEVIL WOMAN! I will end you!...Eventually!" Neo took another bite.

As much as she hated being treated like a child, this food was really delicious.

"I'M GOING TO BEAT YOU HARDER THAN MORNING WOOD!" She heard the sounds of a ass whooping coming from the basement.

Apparently Roman was still trying to escape, but the crazy old guy would not let him. She shook her head, this was not going well for any of them.

"Oh? Do you mean you're done eating?" Momma took her shaking her head as a sign that she was full.

"No! Bring that pie back!" Neo made motions with her arms to bring the pie back.

"Awww, you're so adorable." Momma said as she pinched Neo's cheeks.

"I'm a former Huntress, I have a powerful Aura, I have a powerful Semblance, I am a deadly killer, I am wanted in different kingdoms, and this lady has the gall to call me adorable?!" Neo had never been so insulted in her life.

How could this possibly get any worse?

"Oh! I sewed a dress that would look just beautiful on you!" Momma said as she held out a puffy dress.

"...It just got worse." Roman must never hear of this.

So that was how life went, Neo was being fed like a baby with a bib in a high chair. And Roman was currently getting his ass kicked by a crazy old guy with a penchant for shotguns. Seriously? How could an international criminal be getting his ass kicked by a regular civilian? What kind of man was he?

"General! I just got another Korean!" The man from the basement yelled.

"Oh no...Dale is having flashbacks again. I don't see why he thinks the orange haired girly man is a korean though. He seems to dress like a Brit." Momma said as she shook her head.

One thing was for sure, Roman was fucked.

Back in Rome

"Whats with you?" Winter asked as Jeremiah was staring off into the distance.

"Nothing, I just feel like we're missing something funny." He had a nagging feeling in the back of his head that something was happening back home.

Eh, what could it be? What could be so amazing that he got a tingly feeling in the back of his neck? He shook his head, it was probably nothing, besides he would find out in a week's time. He went back to eating some kind of italian beef sandwich, he didn't know what was in it, but it was good.

"Ohmygosh! These are some of the best cookies ever!" Ruby said as she had already finished her meal and was munching on her dessert.

As it turns out, they were freshly baked, and the cookie dough just had a delightful crumble to it, while the chocolate chips in them just melted right in your mouth, and that wasn't even including all the other ingredients that Ruby couldn't point out, all she knew was that this was a delicious cookie. And she was happy that Grandmama had brought them all along.

"This sea bass and shrimp is pretty good too." Blake said as she was enjoying her stew.

"Why is that guy dressed like that?" Nora asked as she saw a man dressed up in armor.

"Oh, they must be doing a gladiator reenaction, considering he's dressed like a Centurion." Grandmama said as he walked off.

"You mean, we could-" Nora was cut off by Jeremiah.

"Nora, remember the time you beat up all the LARP kids?" He said as she looked up and smiled.

"Yeah but what does that have to do with this?" She asked.

"I know that look, you want to be a part of the reenactment, so the answer is No, besides, wouldn't you rather go with Ren to one of the local bakeries?" He asked as he leaned in to whisper into Nora's ear.

"They have a cake there that will kick the hell out of any pancakes you have EVER had." He said as Nora got a huge smile.

"Oooooooh, Ren can we go?!" Nora stood up as Ren finished his meal.

"I suppose we cou-" He was soon dragged off by Nora.

"YAAAAYYYY!" She said as she was determined to find this place.

"..." The table was silent.

"Shouldn't you have told them where the bakery was?" Winter asked.

"Nah, I'm sure they will have a fun time sampling all the different bakeries." Jeremiah said as he was certain nothing would go wrong.

"Are you sure about that?" Weiss asked as she doubted his perception.

"Think about it, before we flew here, we saw Nora sit still for HOURS enjoying Grandmama's food, she is going to multiple bakeries where she will have to sit still and try EVERYTHING that comes out of there." Okay, Weiss had to admit, that did make sense.

"But there is no way she can afford all of the food she is going to eat!" Weiss was trying to make a point here.

"Oh don't worry my sweet ice child!" Grandmama said as Weiss grumbled at the nickname.

"I gave her 1000 euros to spend!" Jeremiah did a spit take.

"A thousand euros?!" He knew his Grandmother was rich, but come on, that was quite a bit of pocket change.

"What? I can't spoiled my adopted granddaughter?" Suddenly Jeremiah knew what was going on.

"Oh yeah, I forget, if my Grandma likes you enough, you become an adopted Granddaughter." He says as Winter looked at him.

"You mean to tell me this has happened before?" She found that hard to believe.

"Too many times to count, but its a wonderful thing." Suddenly Winter felt a hand on her shoulder.

"Now go on you two! Enjoy your time in Rome! I will take the others on a tour!" Grandmama said as she was leaving with the two teams.

"Wait! By ourselves?!" Jeremiah called out.

"Of course!" Grandmama said as they disappeared around the corner.

Winter looked down slightly at Jeremiah since she had a few inches of height on him. He scratched the back of his head as he looked around.

"So uh? Want to go to the Colosseum?" He was praying she didn't say the dreaded words.

"Why not go to the dance lessons your Grandmother signed us up for?" She figured that was an oppurtunity they should take.

"Son...of...a...bitch." That was starting to become his catchphrase.
