Victory can prove bitter, especially when you're the only one alive to see it. With the world in chaos and everyone he ever loved dead, Jaune Arc makes a deal with the devil for one last chance to go back and change it all. But devils don't play by the same rules as humans, and Salem never did say how far back he'd go. Or how much deeper the war between her and Ozpin really went.

He didn't know the first thing about running a school, nor fixing a political disaster spanning all of Remnant. Hell, he didn't even know how to deal with the world-ending conspiracy in the background, let alone a former-headmaster-possessed child. Yet here he was, leading Beacon Academy into a new age of glory. Or ruin. Definitely a fair chance of the latter…

My name is Jaune Arc and I'm cursed. At least once a week, I am turned into a monster, a beast so horrifying tha- "Guys, Jaune turned into a little puppy again!" "Arf!" Yeah... what she said. (Coverart by KegiSpringfield)

Living day to day as a messenger in the slums, Ruby thought her life was set out for her. But when a mysterious meeting with an Arcanist draws her into a conspiracy that threatens all she loves, that changes. Wielding the power of a Wildmage and hunted by enemies and Arcanists alike, Ruby must find answers in the one place her kind cannot venture; the Arcane Collegium.

Jaune had always dreamed of being a Hero, of being someone. But dreams were just that; for in the world of Remnant the Class you are born with determines your fate. Jaune was born a Blacksmith, and thus that was his destiny. But when a strange opportunity allows him to change that, can a simple Blacksmith become something more within the Beacon Academy for Heroes?

Jaune was only worried about two things in life; graduating from high school and dodging his hated bully. He didn't care about the supernatural, nor believe in it. But a chance encounter with a mysterious girl in red will open his eyes to a world that lives beside our own, a dangerous and deadly secret. But beware, child, for eyes once opened to the truth may never again be closed.

It's one thing to enter the world of heroes and villains, it's another thing entirely to find your way back out again. That's a bitter truth to swallow when you want no part of the life to begin with. A hasty decision from a young man with his back against the wall sends him down a path of which there is no return. OC main character.

When Jaune's forged transcripts were rebuffed, his only option was to return home in disgrace or forge a new life in Vale. Opening a diner was an impetuous decision, being good at it a stroke of luck. Becoming the favourite haunt for students, teachers and criminals alike…? That was neither, but it sure did keep things interesting. Wasn't the civilian life supposed to be easier?

What do you get when you cross several interdimensional god like beings, raw boredom, a world of Naruto that went wrong, several years worth of off screen training, common sense, insanity, humor, sarcasm, the Log, explosions, plot, and overall chaos? Apparently a lot of headache medicine for Tsunade. May the Games Begin. Sequel to Yet Again With A Little Extra Help.

It was their last, desperate gambit. Their last hope. They pinned everything on a prayer that he could save them...and now...he's not even sure if he can make it count anymore.

"With swords that aren't yours, with skills that aren't yours, for dreams that aren't yours. Your entire existence is a lie!" - "Then I'll show you that even fake dreams can become reality." A different choice, a different path, a different FATE. Shirou/Multi

After Kiritsugu's death, the Mystic Eyes of Game Perception awoke within Shirou. With it he'll take the world, and several older ladies, by storm

Uzumaki Naruto grew up with lofty goals, guts, and determination. Instincts of a born fighter made him grow; duty to his home drove him. As the battle lines begin to blur, he must find a way to reconcile all he's ever known with the man he hopes to become. Large AU.

The first Fate/Stay Night-Campione! crossover. A Heavens Feel Shirou finds that himself and Illya have been pulled into another world by a corrupted Grail. There his actions lead to him becoming the Eighth god killing Devil King. Now he has to deal with becoming someone who rules where he walks, even if he doesn't want to. That and trying to find a way back home.

"You can't always win. Sometimes circumstances are outside your control, sometimes you suffer losses. If we don't bend, we break. A shinobi endures. Do you understand?" His life the prize in a game with stakes too high and odds too long, Naruto learns that survival is its own form of victory. Sequel to Patriot's Dawn. AU.

Every family has its odd member, the one that doesn't fit. Jaune was just that, the black sheep. He had always wanted to be the hero, to be a Huntsman. But when your name is Jaune Salem Arc - Prince of the Grimm - and your mother is understandably against the idea, what is a young man to do? Why, run away to attend Beacon in pursuit of a dream, of course. What could go wrong?

She didn't want much out of a relationship. Just someone willing to submit to her. Someone willing to love her. Someone...innocent. (Rated M for Smuttiness and general Naughtiness) ((Cover art by Exvnir))

One day, a young student of Signal Academy receives a package from home, containing the journal of a long dead relative. But what is Jaune Arc going to do with said journal, and how will it change not only his world, but that of those around him?

Whoever said life isn't a game was entirely wrong. Everything is a game; it's just a matter of understanding the rules. While Jaune Arc might not have been the strongest player, he could certainly learn the rules quickly. Good thing too; with a mysterious foe on the horizon and Remnant in danger, Jaune might be Remnant's last hope of survival...

Pariah at birth. Dead-last in his class by seven. Shinobi-dropout by nine. Mercenary by ten. S-rank in the Bingo Book by twelve. Ex-terrorist by thirteen. International criminal by fourteen. They say the road of life is full of twists and turns...

She was a harbinger of darkness, a killer, a monster...and she was happily married to a man who had no idea.

Jaune Arc had always wanted to be a huntsman like his father. He wanted to be a hero. But as they saying goes, you can't always get what you want. Sometimes life doesn't work out the way you planned it. Sometimes you don't realize that it was all for the best, and that there's more than one way to be a hero. Cover art by TabletKnight.

Emiya Kiritsugu was happy living the rest of his short days. He had put his past behind him... until he began to dream of futures that had yet to be. Let it be known that the Magus Killer was not dangerous simply because he was dying and had no plans to fight.

It was said one met their Destiny on the road less traveled. For Jaune Arc this road led away from Beacon Academy and toward a path of mystery, adventure, friendship, and secrets itching to be unearthed. What legends lied over the next horizon? Only by taking that first step forward would he learn and find out. And maybe, just maybe, end up becoming the hero of his story.

Jaune Arc, Field Agent of the VSS - Vale's Secret Service, or at least that's what he's been told. All he knows is that they found out about his faked transcripts, and now he works in the interests of the Kingdom. With terrorists on the horizon, not to mention a shady organisation and an even shadier group operating under Ozpin, what's a bumbling teen turned secret agent to do?

Yang wasn't used to leadership, but she wasn't going to accept Ozpin's suggestion of mandatory rest either. Not when it meant losing her spot on Team RWBY. If she had to lead a rookie squad of police officers against the White Fang to prove she could still fight, then so be it. Too bad no one told her the VSPR was made up of Vale's worst criminals, many of which she knew by name.

'Twas in a moment of sudden irregularity, that I found my own self thrust into a life not of my choice, by an accident almost entirely of my own volition (Truck-kun was not involved in my death). Now, how to live with this new mask, when I'm used to not wearing any? OC-Insert as Sasuke.

The Grimm closed in, as the ember in his soul shivered and then surged forth, burning irrepressibly as he faced death once more. "It's going to be a long night" The 9-year-old murmured, his tone quivering in a manner that might have been mistaken for terror… if not for the nigh maniacal grin stretched across his face "Well, just another dance at death's border, I guess" Gamer!Jaune

So, one day I'm throwing up on my way to Beacon. The next day, I'm being flung from a cliff and wind up becoming a team leader. Now I'm finding out that my games have become real! Gamer Jaune

Pyrrhanykos is not exactly the most terrifying dragon. Lucky for her, Jaune Arc is not exactly the deadliest dragonslayer. So when they meet, it isn't exactly an epic battle for the ages. Instead it's the start of an adventurous journey full of danger, self-discovery and maybe, just maybe some romance. An Arkos Dragon AU.

Jaune was a hunter, hunting animals from a young age. Not Grimm, and never people. Not like the so-called 'real' Hunters he wanted nothing to do with. But when an absent sister asks him to help rescue a missing student, Jaune Arc and Lie Ren will both have to put aside their differences and learn what it means to be true Huntsmen if they're to survive the Grimmlands.

After a freak accident during the Breach, Blake finds herself facing the impossible: her semblance has been altered into something calling itself The Gamer. With levels, quests and bosses to master, she has little recourse but to enlist the aid of the school's resident gaming expert, Jaune Arc. Will Blake be able to take on fearsome odds and the mantle of The Gamer Girl?

Naruto and Sasuke's first fight at the Valley of the End turns out differently, and suddenly the future isn't what it used to be. AU

Jaune had no interest in Ozpin's latest training initiative, especially when it pit boys against girls across Beacon. Cowardice or not, he intended to hide and wait the whole thing out. Leading the male alliance wasn't part of the plan, nor was becoming mankind's final hope. He was a coward, an idiot and a weakling. It was just a shame no one would believe him when he said so!

A shield? Okay admittedly I don't know how to use a shield. But a sword? That I know how to use. Jaune P.O.V.

When I sold my soul to the Devil, I thought I was prepared for anything. I wasn't. I didn't expect him to be a her. Or dressed up as a magical girl carrying a pink wand tipped with a cheerful yellow star. Her being a prankster however didn't come as much of a surprise. You know, the Bible would have been a whole lot more interesting if they included stuff like this. Complete AU

His grandfather was a legendary Huntsman. His sisters were rising stars, the huntresses of tomorrow. He failed the Signal entrance exams. He couldn't wield a sword to save his life. But he had potential. Enough for Remnant's Secret Service to notice.

The Arcs are a proud line of warriors. Jaune, however, inherited none of that talent. When his father takes him to a job fair to find a more suitable apprenticeship, no one picks him. No one, that is, save for a black robed figure who rides in on a pale horse. Turns out the legends got quite a lot wrong, and at least one god still calls Remnant home. [minor Discworld crossover]

The Shinigami was satisfied by the bloodbath called the Fourth Shinobi World War. He reaped the souls of over 80,000 ninjas and countless civilians... Then why does he send one of them back in time? (Time-travel done RIGHT; read the first chapter to be convinced. Full summary inside. Features Fūinjutsu!Naruto. Will be EPIC in length. NO HAREM.) "Err... why do you smell like fish?"

One operated in the shadows, and the other thrived in the light. One kept her thoughts and emotions closely guarded, and the other wore them on his sleeve. One had more than a few secrets to her name, and the other... was willing to keep them for her. Now why did that only piss her off?

Ichigo really should have known better than to trust one of Urahara's contraptions. Now, he finds himself trapped in a world full of knock-off Hollows, a broken moon, and a bunch of fantastical technology that would have Geta-Boushi's head spinning. But the worst of it is, Ichigo has somehow gotten himself hired as a janitor at a combat school that trains a bunch of crazy kids.

Was it really such a good idea to forge his way into Beacon Academy with no prior training? Jaune Arc hadn't thought too much on it at first, but a strange encounter with a stranger girl quickly made it apparent that he wasn't as ready as he thought he would be. But apparently his looks were good for something, because that same girl thought he was cute enough to propose a deal...

Breaking a golden rule, he decided to tell them what his semblance was about. Not like they ever believed him anyways, and they were about to die. As he wakes up for the three thousandth time, Jaune Arc is drained of will. Nothing worked, and he always failed. He once again tries to manage it all by himself. Except this time he won't have to. This time, RWBY went back with him.

This year was going to be different. He was going to make some friends, find one (and only one!) girlfriend, become a hunter and make his parents proud! It would be easy, right? All he had worry about was Grimm, a group of psychopathic criminal masterminds, international politics and most sinister of all...his own Semblance? Avoiding a harem has never been this hard...

Kakashi is dropped into the middle of nowhere. The moon is broken into pieces, and he knows he's not in his home world anymore. Now he has to live out the remainder of his life in this strange, but peaceful world.

Shirou sacrificed himself to take Gilgamesh with him, dropping both of them into the Holy Grail. So he should be dead, right? Then why does he have so many questions? Questions such as why is he still alive? Why is the moon shattered? What is a faunus?

Despite coming from a family of heroes, Jaune Arc wasn't quite there yet. He dreamed of attending Beacon Academy and becoming a master Huntsman. But for now, he was just Jaune. And one of his sisters wanted him to go ice-skating with her. Jaune wasn't the best at it, but what could possibly go wrong? Well, when it involved him that was just about everything.

Jaune survives a childhood tragedy and life in the wilderness with the most unlikely allies. The summoned manifestations of slain Grimm defend him through his travels until he meets a band of refugees and a criminal willing to help smuggle them into the safety of Vale - and Jaune into Beacon Academy where he finally finds purpose for the sword at his hip.

Over five years ago, a plane crashed and a boy was lost. Five years later he was found again, scarred and bloodied with a bow in hand. What happens now as the boy rejoins a world that thought him dead, filled with secrets and a promise to a dead man? Only time will tell.

It began after I got rejected by Signal again, though at the time I had no idea what was happening. Titles and levels suddenly appeared above people's heads and then weird things began to happen, as if I was in a game. And then, I realize I was in a game. But...if my life is a game, I'm going to win it. My name's Jaune Arc and I'm the Gamer. RWBY/The Gamer.

Naruto, desperately needing advice on how to handle his newly aquired girlfriend, turns to the worst possible source for male vs female relationship advice in the Narutoverse. ... Or does he?
