Yep, this is gonna be a long one.

Last time on The RPG Hunter

The group had finally confronted Merlot but he ran into another room, the group followed into a trap. Aaron was alone to face against Merlot while the others were trapped watching, Merlot was thought to be defeated but he wasn't. He transformed into a more demonic form, he was about to kill Aaron but with a prayer from Ruby. He had prevailed against Merlot, afterwards Aaron gained a new weapon. Azure Star, after getting everyone's weapons back. They left what was now a castle in ruin, they arrived back at the bullhead with Summer being saved. What will happen this chapter? Find out now!


*Play Opening One*

Aaron was looking out a window on the bullhead, nearby Summer was talking to Ruby about... her and Aaron's relationship. Actually, it was asking questions.

"So how many dates does Aaron take you on per month?" Summer asked

"A healthy amount." Ruby said

"And has Aaron mistreated you before?" Summer asked

"WHAT NO?!" Ruby said

"Just making sure." Summer said

Aaron sighed, this was going to be a long ride.

About an hour later

Aaron was walking with Summer up to Ozpin's office, Ruby and Yang were nearby. They entered his office, Ozpin looked up from his paperwork.

"Ah Aaron, and... Summer?" Ozpin asked

"Yep, nice to see you again Ozzy. How Glynd's?" Summer asked

"Um great, she's visiting our son." Ozpin said

Aaron's eyes widened at that moment, he looked at Ozpin for a moment.

"Your married?!" Aaron asked

"And you have a son?" Ruby asked in the background

"That also." Aaron then said

Ozpin coughed awkwardly and organised some papers, he then placed them on the edge of the desk.

"Yes, i'm married to Glynda, we keep it low key so people don't know." Ozpin said

"Huh, wonder if i'm every gonna meet your son?" Aaron asked

"After Salem is killed you might, we've been keeping him a secret from the world for quite some time now." Ozpin said

Aaron then realized they were getting off topic.

"Okay back on topic, i'm here to tell you the mission statement." Aaron said

"Right, please explained what happened." Ozpin said

Aaron then recounted the moments that happened while they were in the castle, all the way from entering to killing Merlot and getting Azure Star. Ozpin afterwards stood up and a pressed a button on the wall. The Ozpin's desk then started to go under a hidden area, the room was now a little bigger. Ozpin stood across from Aaron, he had his arms behind his back.

"Yang, Ruby i need you to leave the room. Aaron and Summer will be back out, you'll be visiting Tai afterwards to talk about the recent discovery." Ozpin said

Ruby and Yang looked at each other, they looked at Ozpin. Aaron then cleared his throat.

"It's okay, we'll be back. I promise." Summer said

Ruby and Yang slowly nodded, they then left the room. Aaron and Summer looked back at Ozpin, he nodded.

"Back to business, i need to see if you can still use your powers." Ozpin said

Aaron shrugged, he then pointed a finger at the ground.

"Thunder!" Aaron yelled

That's when thunder struck the ground, Ozpin smiled a little.

"I see your Gamer powers are still active." Ozpin said

"I've actually got some new powers." Aaron said

"Really? Like what?" Ozpin asked

Aaron then thought about Summer and Ozpin, he then said this.

"Hope." Aaron said

That's when Ozpin and Summer had a warm glow over them, Summer looked at her hands as did Ozpin.

"What's this feeling, i feel like i can take on the world." Summer said

"Hope, it's an ability and power that i have. It allows me to recharge SP or Spirit Points, i works in both the Dream and Real World.

Ozpin then looked at Aaron confused.

"Dream World?" Ozpin asked

"It's what the name is Oz, it's the world of dream's. Where reality doesn't follow, dream's exist. Things called Nightmare's and Demon's exist in that world." Aaron explained

"Nightmare's?" Ozpin asked

"Creatures that are brought about by stress and fear, they feed on it and kill the victim in the Dream World. It's doesn't kill the person in reality but it makes them more stressed than before, allowing the Nightmare to later manifest into reality." Aaron explained

"And these Demon's?" Ozpin asked

"Exactly what the name entails, but it's rather summoned by a person and if the person is killed in the Dream World, it kills them in the Real World." Aaron explained

"Interesting, anything else?" Ozpin asked

"There are people who can fight back against it but instead of having a unique weapon like mine, they just have the weapon they normally use." Aaron explained

"You know a lot about this stuff." Summer questioned

"I didn't really know about this stuff until after that fight with the Succubus back in the castle." Aaron said

"You did mention that to little detail." Ozpin said with a raised eyebrow

"Eheh, yeah." Aaron said rubbing the back of his head

Ozpin and Summer looked at him with a blank look on their faces, Aaron frowned a little.

"WELL sorry if i didn't want to talk about that dream too much, it brought up some old memories." Aaron said

Ozpin then sighed, he then smiled a little.

"That's understandable, is that all to report on those new powers?" Ozpin asked

"Yep, i've already explained on how Azure Star works." Aaron said

Ozpin then nodded, he walked over and pressed the button again. The desk came back up and he sat in it's chair, he then nodded after he sat down.

"Well it's good to hear you dealt with the problem and found Summer, you may go now." Ozpin said

Aaron nodded, him and Summer than left the room. After walking out of Beacon, they saw Aaron's Team, Team RWBY, and Team JNPR (For some odd reason) where at the bullhead.

"Sup, so why's JNPR here?" Aaron asked

"We couldn't let you go back with Ruby's mom alone with your team and Ruby's!" Nora said

"Yeah, we kinda of wanted to meet her." Jaune said with some confidence

Aaron then looked at Jaune with a proud look.

"Looks like those combat lessons are making you a bit confident." Aaron said

Jaune nodded, Aaron then gave a thumbs up.

"I respect that." Aaron said

"Even though you've kicked my ass a whole bunch." Jaune said blankly

"Jaune, you know going easy on you never works." Aaron said

"What about that one time you made me carry a small boulder on my back with weights on my legs and arms?!" Jaune asked

"That was to make you better in speed and jumping, plus i worked didn't it?" Aaron said

Jaune then sighed exasperated.

"Right, it did." Jaune said

Aaron then rolled his eyes, everyone got onto the bullhead. Summer was talking to Pyrrha about her fighting style, she even gave her a few pointers as she is a veteran in being a Huntress. Aaron looked out the window during the whole thing, later they landed in Patch. The group walked to a wood cabin, Aaron stepped forward and knocked on the door.

"I'll be right there, give me a sec." Taiyan said

He opened the door, he then gained a surprised look on his face with wide eyes.

"Summer, your alive?!" Taiyang asked

Summer nodded, she then looked at Aaron.

"Yep, thanks to this little goober here." Summer said

She then messed up his hair, Aaron's wolf ear twitched after that.

"Please don't do that again." Aaron said getting his hair fixed up

Summer rolled her eyes playfully as they all walked into the house, they sat down at a nearby table.

"So Summer, where were you all this time?" Taiyang asked

"Oh you know, trapped in a castle with my weapon taken and my Semblance being locked behind some powerful boss like monsters with no way of escaping until two team that you know came along and saved me. The usual thing." Summer said playfully

Taiyang then looked at Summer with narrowed eyes.

"Okay i can see that was kind of a stupid question but please don't do me like that." Taiyang said with a slight grumble afterwards

"Tai you know i'm just playing around." Summer said

Taiyang pouted a little, Summer than gave him a little kiss on the cheek. Taiyang stopped grumbling and looked at Summer smiling.

"Glad to see you never changed." Taiyang said

Aaron then coughed, him and Summer realized that people were still around.

"Right, not the time to be romantic. Now's the time to celebrate, so i guess i should start cooking." Taiyang said

Aaron than got up from his seat which stopped Taiyang in his tracks.

"No need Tai, i've got this but i won't be holding back in my cooking." Aaron said

Taiyang then looked at Aaron with wide eyes, he then put his arm around Aaron's shoulder and led him away from the group. He then looked at Aaron with a serious look.

"You sure about this? I mean you've cooked before but those times you held back and they were pretty good. When you came back you were cooking a meal right after, your have said it yourself that your a God at cooking thanks to all of your travels." Taiyang whispered

"Of course i will, plus i've got to hold it to my word." Aaron said

Taiyang looked at Aaron for a couple moments, he then nodded.

"Okay, you'll cook." Taiyang said

Aaron and Taiyang then walked back to the group, Weiss looked at him and Taiyang confused.

"What were you guys talking about?" Weiss asked

"Nothing to be worried about Ice Queen." Aaron said

Weiss pouted a little, Arian then put a hand on her shoulder. Weiss looked at Arian with a smile and a small blush on her face, Aaron mentally raised an eyebrow but stowed those thoughts away for now. He then got an apron and bandanna from his pocket, he put on the apron that said 'Don't mess with the cook', he then put on the bandanna which was a dark green. Suddenly Aaron was zooming around the kitchen, cutting fruits and vegetables. Pounding meat and cooking it, in less than an hour. He made a meal fit for a king, he took off the bandanna and apron. He sat down at the table with everyone looking shocked, he smiled as he said this.

"Dig in!"

Everyone sat looking at the food at first, it was too good looking to eat with Aaron eating his at a normal pace. That's when Ruby sighed, she picked up a fork with a knife and cut a piece of the meat. She put in her mouth, that's when she stopped chewing it. Everyone looked at Ruby, she then ate the slab of meat along with the veggies (Which shocked everyone except Aaron in the room). That's when everyone began to eat the food like it was going to be gone, afterwards everyone was satisfied with fully belly's.

"That was great, it feels like i'll never need to eat for a month." Weiss said

"Man that steamed fish was great, what's your secret Aaron?" Blake asked

Everyone looked at Aaron expecting an answer, Aaron then shrugged.

"I just used a combination of spices and garnishes along with using my Semblance to speed up the process, it's easy when you can steam a fish in half a second or cook meat using a simple Fire." Aaron explained

Everyone blinked their eyes a couple of times, they then muttered their agreements. They then talked for bit, everyone was pretty happy.

"Wish i was there."

Raven was on a nearby tree branch as she looked inside the house, she frowned a little.

'Where did you go all those years ago Summer?' Raven asked

The next day

Aaron woke up in his room, it's been a bit since he had his own room. He made some guest rooms that were bigger than they looked a long while ago, he got up and got dressed. He made breakfast, holding back this time. Everyone was still impressed with the meal but the pancakes were made by Ren, even Aaron can't beat Ren in pancake making. Afterwards, Summer looked at Aaron while everyone was chatting.

"You wanna spar?" Summer asked

Aaron then shrugged.

"Why not?" Aaron said

[Play Golden Sun Battle theme]

Later everyone was outside, Summer had Halo Cannon in it's scythe form while Aaron was holding Vita's Pax. The fight then began, Aaron and Summer were slashing at each other. Aaron blocking each of her hits with her sword, that's when Summer jumped backward.

"Are you holding back?" Summer asked

"Yes, i am kind of holding back." Aaron said awkwardly

"Oh come on, don't hold back. I may be old but i'm still good at fighting." Summer said

Aaron then looked at her for a moment, blinking a couple of times.

"You want me to use my full power?" Aaron asked

"Near it at least." Summer asked

"I think i'll go with my full power, after all. I think you can handle it, your a Silver Eye Warrior." Aaron said

That's when Aaron summoned a second weapon, it was Azure Star. Tempus Fortitude then appeared on his arm, that's when a tiny yellow bird flew in.

"Alright Bui, let's do this!" Aaron said

That's when the yellow bird chirped, Summer looked at Aaron with a smirk.

"That's more like it!" Summer said

Aaron and Summer began to attack each other again, Summer went for an overhead strike but it was blocked by both swords.

"Nice try." Aaron said

Aaron then sent her backwards, he then started to spin around.

"Whirlwind!" Aaron yelled

Aaron started to become a living tornado, he slashed at Summer with her blocking each strike multiple times. The attack stopped and Aaron then slashed with both weapons at once, it hit Summer's weapon with it creating small sparks trying to send it back.

"Give up? I haven't even had to incorporate Bui yet." Aaron said

"Nope, hit me with your best shot!" Summer said

"Well okay, you asked for it." Aaron said

Aaron then jumped backward glowing a green aura, Bui flew into the air. Aaron then smirked at he stayed in the air.

"Alright, Special Move! Elemental Bird Shot!" Aaron said

That's when a giant slot machine appeared over Aaron with Bui spinning around like a yellow ball, the first reel had a air symbol on it, the second had fire, and the third had thunder. Bui had air coming of it along with being on fire and electricity sparking off it, Aaron then pulled back his foot.

"Take this!" Aaron yelled

That's when he kicked Bui at Summer, he was moving at fast speeds. It hit Summer directly, turning into a giant bird and kicking her backwards. When Aaron's attack finished, he landed with Bui flying to him in it's smaller form.

[End music]

It landed on Aaron's finger, Aaron scratched his head a little with it giving a happy coo.

"You did great buddy." Aaron said

Bui then chirped, he then flew back to Beacon. Summer was on the ground, Aaron teleported over and helped her up. Summer looked at Aaron impressed.

"That was a pretty strong attack, put my Aura almost to zero." Summer said

"Let me help with that." Aaron said

Aaron put his hand out, it then started to glow. Summer than gained a small glow on her, Aaron kept his hand pointed at her.

"Aura." Aaron said

Afterwards, Summer's Aura was recharged. She looked at her old kind of beaten up scroll to see her Aura was back to full, she looked at Aaron shocked.

"Wow! That's when amazing 'Semblance' you've got there." Summer said

"Yep, it's pretty cool alright." Aaron said

"Yes yes, it's amazing." A new yet familiar voice said

Aaron then looked over to see Raven was nearby, he sighed.

"Hi Raven, it's been three years already?" Aaron said

"Yep, three years since you've cause my Bandit Camp to go their own ways." Raved responded

Raven and Summer stood across each other, they suddenly hugged out of nowhere.

"RAVEN!" Summer said

Raven rolled her eyes, she smiled a little.

"Hello Summer." Raven said

"Did you miss me?" Summer asked

"Nope." Raven said popping the p at the end

Aaron stood their with white circles instead of eyes, Aaron then snapped out of it and looked at the scene shocked. Raven looked at Aaron with a blank look.

"What?" Raven asked

"I thought you didn't care about people?!" Aaron asked shocked

"That was two years ago, in that time i've had my thought since i wasn't running a Bandit Camp anymore. I realized that emotion are a valuable thing, without them, you're nothing but a monster." Raven said

"So you've changed your alignment?" Aaron asked

"You saved Summer, i think that warrent's it enough." Raven said

"Good, you may want to run." Aaron said

Raven looked at Aaron confused at that moment.

"Why?" Raven asked

"Because, your daughter is quite pissed off at you for leaving all those years ago." Aaron said

Raven then looked at Aaron with straight lips and wide eyes, her eyes slightly moved to see an angry Yang behind her. She then looked at Aaron.

"Oh." Raven said

That's when Raven began to run.

"GET BACK HER MOTHER!" Yang yelled

That's when Yang ran after Raven, everyone looked at the direction they left in with three giant dots over their heads. They then went back inside, they chilled for a bit until a knock on the door made them stop what they were doing. Aaron teleported over to the door and opened it, it was Qrow.

"Hey, so i'm just here to talk to Tai about the Vytal Festival and on how we should watch it in person with Raven if we can find her." Qrow said

"Oh, well come on in." Aaron said

Qrow walked in to see Summer was on the couch with Ruby, he looked at the couch with a blank look.

"Has grief and me being drunk made me hallucinate." Qrow asked

"No i see Summer also." Taiyang said

"Oh." Qrow said

Qrow then gained a shocked look on his face as Summer looked at him.

"Wait Summer has been alive this whole time?" Qrow asked

"I'm right here in the same room as you Qrow." Summer said

Qrow then rubbed the back of his head with an awkward smile which made Aaron look onward with wide eyes.

"Heh right." Qrow said

"Oh my Monty Oum i've never seen Qrow smile like that before." Aaron said

Aaron than grabbed Haruko (Somehow) and pulled her over, she pulled her close.

"Haruko are you seeing this?" Aaron asked

"What? Qrow smiling like an awkward tee- okay now that i say that out loud that seems kind of strange." Haruko said

Summer and Qrow were talking as Aaron and Haruko along with Amber were looking onward with blank looks, Arian then looked at them with a slight eyebrow.

"Is it really that strange to see him smile like he's an awkward teen?" Arian said

"Yes, yes it is." Haruko, Amber, and Aaron said all at the same time

Arian looked on also, Weiss was standing nearby also. That's when Weiss sighed, she tapped Arian's shoulder. Arian looked at Weiss confused.

"Yes Weiss?" Arian asked

"Listen Arian, i want to ask you something." Weiss said

"Oh, what is it Weiss?" Arian asked curious

"Wi-will you go."

"Go where?" Arian asked

"Will you, will you. Go out on a date with me?" Weiss asked

Aaron looked over, he stepped back in shock with a shocked 'eh'. Arian blushed a little, he then rubbed the back of his head.

"Um, okay. Why not?" Arian said

Arian and Weiss looked at each other for a moment, they looked at Aaron.

"Why are you looking at me?" Aaron asked

"Can you make us food for our date?" Weiss asked

Aaron than thought it over, Weiss looked at Aaron with a soft look.

"I'll even-"

"No need to pay Weiss, i don't mind." Aaron said

Weiss looked at Aaron silent for a couple moments, she then smiled and nodded. Her and Arian walked away, he wiped a stray tear from his eye.

"Looks like another of my ships has sailed." Aaron said proud

Haruko then looked at Aaron with a blank look.

"Really? Your getting emotional over something like a relationship." Haruko said

"Hey, i know your hanging out with Velvet. So don't fuck with me on that." Aaron said with Haruko blushing at Velvet being mentioned

She then looked downward, her ears going down a little. Aaron rolled his eyes as his ears went down.

"Can anything else happen?" Aaron asked

Ask and it shall happen, a bruised Yang and Raven walked in. Aaron looked at the both of them confused.

"What happened to you two?" Aaron asked

"We fought each other." Yang asked

"She's got an arm like Tai, and she's just like me in combat." Raven said

That when the two of them passed out, Aaron rolled his eyes and healed their bruises along with getting their Aura's back to 100%.

"Me and my big mouth." Aaron said

Later after a good dinner, everyone went to bed. The next day was going to be spent training for the Tournament, than they'll be starting to fight for Beacon. The day of Cinder's death draw near.

*Play Ending Two*

Next time on The RPG Hunter

"Alright we're the fourth round!" Aaron said

Aaron's team lined up against Team CAMP, Aaron smirked at Max.

"Ready to lose?" Aaron asked

"Depends, are you?" Max replied

The counter went down to zero, the fight was going to begin.


Alright, the Vytal Festival is gonna happen. I'll be covering about three episodes right before the 'Fall episode happens' then that chapter will be 100% all about Aaron stopping all the events that lead to a bunch of bad things happening being prevented. He won't be getting out 100% unscathed thought, i'll leave that thought for you guys.
