Here it is the final upload for DAM the fourth part for Xiao-Long.
Concept: Summer adopts Jaune.
Appearance: None
Ruby was a dork, this was known, she wasn't a social butterfly nor particularly good at interacting with others like her sister Yang. This was the reason she'd question if they were related, thankfully her brother was very much proof that they were. After all Jaune was as anti-social as her. Jaune… her brother, her big, dumb brother who made her cheeks flush.
As far back as she could remember it had always been the three of them Yang the self-appointed leader, Jaune her faithful second in command and her the squirt of their trio. Jaune always made her feel special through it all, making sure she was never alone. He was her big brother who always tried to do what was best for her, supporting her when she was down, trying to help her make friends when he was no better.
She could always count on Jaune to do his best for her and Yang, which was why her cheeks always pinked around him. Because she Ruby Rose had a secret, she liked her big brother Jaune, not a little like, or how a sister liked her brother… But like-Like, no Like like like… Liked Squared? Debates for another time. Point was Ruby Rose liked her brother and not in the family friendly sort of way. Which made what she was seeing super irritating.
"So you'll do anything to make it up to us?" Currently Jaune was between two very annoying not at all unique girls dressed in dumb white and red. She watched as the two nasty stupid hussies leaned into her brother touching him, making him blush, obviously they were bad guys and Yang did nothing wrong!
"Uh, y-yeah, look I know my sister did a real number on your pillar there and the men so I know it won't be cheap but I can at least heal those guys." The white clad one Melanie rose a brow then.
"Oh, and you think that'll be enough? That glass pillar there was worth more lien then a house blondie, still think you can cover it?" She saw her brother visibly wince his face stiffening.
"I… 'sigh' no, I don't." Melanie nodded smugly before looking back to the dozens of beaten men.
"Well… Since Hei's a big old softy, we could probably get utters off with a warning given that you can really fix up our guys. After all with her wrecking our place some newblood will certainly come to try their luck at beating Juniors gang while we're weak. Jaune didn't hesitate to nod.
"Y-yeah! Of course." Melanie smiled before going in for the proverbial kill.
"And of course you'll be giving us info on the new first years at Beacon." Jaune blinked.
"What?" The white clad twin folded her arms.
"You think we didn't know you were a Beacon student, or gonna be. Please… Hei's an info broker for Vale, you seriously think he wouldn't look up the students attending?" Jaune nodded slowly before Miltia spoke up.
"Also from here on out your gonna be a regular got it?" Ruby bristled at the smile the twin shot Jaune as Melanie nodded in agreement with her sister's terms.
"Oh yeah definitely, got all that blonde stuff, though don't worry too much we'll certainly make it worth you while." Both girls closed around him and seeing it even if unconsciously Ruby reached for Crescent Rose as her brother stiffened up like he always did around girls.
"I-I'm sorry I can't!" All three girls froze as Jaune looked down red-faced, Melanie's eyes narrowed on him then.
"Hey, I think I misheard you, cause it sounded like you rejected my 'very' generous offer, that couldn't be right?" Jaune slowly nodded.
"I-I did, sorry, I can't give the student roster for the first years though." Miltia now showed some genuine anger.
"Oh, so your one of those goody-two-shoes that draws the line at doing 'naughty' things, didn't feel that way when your bimbo of a sister wrecked our home." Jaune shook his head.
"I don't mean that and also…don't call Yang 'that' again." The two stiffened when calmer… smouldering azure looked over them as streaks of radiant white begun to manifest. Ruby smiled happy to see his big brother switch flipped for Yang, especially against these to hussies.
"Look, I wouldn't mind telling you if I knew or could get info on it, if it would square Yang away for you guys I would." The two blinked while Ruby went slacked jawed at her brother's confession.
"Then do it, it would be easy for a Beacon stude-"
"I'm not going to Beacon this year." All three girls went silent while Jaune rubbed the back of his head.
"So yeah, can't really get you that info this year, but I can in like two years from now." The twins blinked before Miltia seeming not entirely convinced barked.
"The fuck you trying to pull!? Like we'd believe that!" She could take blondie rejecting their offer, hell he was tough if he could convince blondie to stop and they could certainly use the manpower there even if only temporarily. Melanie and her had planned for that and would hire him on till Beacon took him, maybe have some fun with the blonde. But if there was one thing they 'despised' it was lying.
"You think we're stupid enough to believe you didn't get into Beacon!" Jaune sighed having Yang flashbacks but with far less fire and instead two pairs of angry emerald eyes instead of one hellishly red pair of orbs on him.
"No I got in, but I rejected it… look up Signal academies staff and you'll see I'm registered as a assistant teacher next year." The two paused while Ruby herself did little better.
"So you see I can't really do anything Beacon related, I could tell you who's heading there next year and the year after though. Given you're not gonna hire a hitman or anything for them otherwise I'll have to call in my dad and uncle, former members of team STRQ." Both girls swallowed indicating that they did in fact know that particular teams name, then again who in Vale wouldn't let alone an info broker. Finally, however Melanie composed herself and nodded.
"Fine, I can accept that, but you owe us a favor instead, your sister left us vulnerable going all hulk like this. We're gonna need some extra hands when it comes to defending ourselves. You cover our cute asses while we're exposed and we can cut a deal, maybe even wire you in like how some of the smarter hunters do with Junior." Jaune nodded a faint pink to his cheeks at the white bouncer's wording.
"Y-yeah, I can do that." Melanie nodded before a faint smile begun to show on her lip and he strutted in close to Jaune Miltia right behind her.
"Oh, glad to see you don't mind our asses blondie, that's good…" Miltia grinned a hint more savage in her smirk.
"After all we know a lot of positions that'll give you a nice view of them …" Ruby shook as she saw Jaune splutter for words like a caught fish for water, this always happened, Jaune may be socially awkward like her but he's hot! Girls like him and the ones who love to tease and bully only like him more after he shows his horrible social skills.
"I-I um, I mean I ca-" Melanie placed her index over his lips silencing him.
"Shh, now big guy don't worry me and sis will teach you 'lots' of fun things… 'sigh' but unfortunately we got work to do tonight and your sister didn't exactly leave us with a shortage of it… so that'll have to wait, like till next week or so, how about Saturday?" Jaune tried to respond but his mouth was far too dry leaving him to only nod and Melanie to smile. A smirking Miltia cut in doing something unforgivable! Arms wrapped around Jaune as the hussies rose to her tip toes planting a wet one on him before pulling back. Jaune struggled to speak only making the girl smile wider.
"Oh yeah it'll be the best Saturday of your life, well till then have fun babysitting." Shooting Ruby a condescending look before turning away with a strut in her step Miltia made her way off Melanie behind her as Jaune struggled to think.
"Wha! Hey Ruby!" Without a word she grabbed him and made way for the door hissing at anyone who even came close to them. After all Jaune promised her a date and by Oum she'd have it and make him forget all about those dumb hussies.
Ruby stepped through the streets of Vale going absolutely crazy on a burger, triple stack with everything on it as Jaune did so slower and with just one. Hey give her a break her semblance made her metabolism go crazy.
"Geez sis, might wanna go easy on those, don't wanna get a tummy ache after all." Ruby turned to him her best pout armed and ready.
"I won't get a tummy ache, I'm 15 not 4!" Jaune winced at the tone she shot him while still cute he could certainly detect the slight venom in it.
"Hey now, I was just pulling your leg Rubes." Ruby pouted, settling on ignoring him making Jaune sigh.
"Come on, I'm sorry, I know you're not a kid." A memory flashed of Jaune walking in on Ruby changing and his cheeks heated before he turned away.
"Look, you gotta talk to me here, after all we both know I'm no good with dust so I need a experts opinion." Ruby face visibly loosened at the compliment as they closed in on their target, Ruby's favorite little dust store 'from Dust til' Dawn'. While he didn't know what he did he knew he'd have to make it up to her.
Her favorite little burger joint, this dust shop and a quick peek at a weapons shop and he was sure she'd be right as rain. Thankfully the place stuck to its name staying open throughout the night, sure they wouldn't be able to get a ride back home with the ports being closed this late but he had the lien for a hotel. It was odd how flustered Ruby got when he mentioned that though?
After deciding on several vials the two went to do their things, Jaune grabbing up and looking through their comic selection while Ruby herself started listening to her favorite tunes. All and all the night was going really good, Ruby had visibly calmed and upped in spirits and he figured nothing could go wrong…
'ring, ring'
Through the door several large men looking oddly familiar to the ones Yang had thrashed entered but they were not the targets of his attention but instead the man at their center. A very familiar and well known face for all the wrong reasons, Roman Torchwick, thief extraordinaire and most wanted man in Remnant.
Said master thief smiled gesturing his man to look around and search and 'restrain' any civilians, they spotted Jaune and a flash of recognition came to them. Maybe it was because they were still bitter from the whole Yang beating them up thing that they went for a more forceful approach with him but it was their mistake. He'd play along, as long as they didn't do anything to serious after all he already hit the alarm on his scroll so any nearby hunter would rush to the spot.
"Alright kid, put your hands where I can see 'em." Jaune froze and turned spotting a goon near Ruby currently blasting her favorite song so loud even he could hear it. The man visibly angered at that.
"Hey, I said hands in the air! You got a death wish or something!?" He reached out yanking Ruby towards him, Ruby stared for all of a second about to ask something before said goon was tackled by his flying friend and both crashed into a wall. The uninjured guy beside them turned in the direction of the throw finding a radiant light flashing, blinding him. By the time his eyes were able to see again all he saw was a fist seconds before it crashed into his face shattering his aura and breaking his nose and glasses.
Jaune didn't get angry as often as his sister, however one should never confuse this for Jaune never losing it. Mess with his sisters and you'd quickly regret it, turning away from the stunned Ruby he locked eyes with Roman making the man sigh.
"Oh just my luck, I finally find a Dust shop open this late and I run into a do goode-" Jaune didn't wait for the man to monologue drawing Crocea Mors and unleashing a mighty Arc of aura at the criminal. Roman quickly shifted away his men being struck by the blow and sent flying through the door. Each writhed on the ground gripping at their chest that bled their auras being the only thing that kept them breathing before light bloomed around them and the severe wound lessened to a non-lethal state. Roman turned finding Jaune, his arms stretched out glowing white,.
"Well, ain't that my luck, you got some actual fight in you." Jaune ignored him rushing towards the man who quickly jumped back directing his men Jaune's way as he gained distance. Jaune rushed in towards the man his blade in one hand while his fist shone in the other, he decked the first of the grunts with his fist sending the man flying into and through a wall.
Roman clicked his tongue as the man unloaded on the boy only for their rounds to seemingly bounce off of his manifested barriers.
"Seriously you guys are worth every penny." He turned to Jaune who glared his way fist glowing white and Crocea Mors not paling in comparison.
"Well kid, I think we can all say it's been an eventful evening, and as much as I'd love to stick around." Raising Melodic Cudgel he aimed at Jaune the crosshair flipping out as he took aim.
"...I'm afraid this is where we part ways." Without warning he fired at Jaune making the knight assume a guard tanking the blast but when he focused back on the thief, he found him nowhere to be found. The goons rushed at Jaune again but a ring like thunder roared as each man was shot by Crescent Rose. Ruby quickly rushed out in a storm of roses tearing through the men sending them flying. Honestly sometimes he wondered how his little sis could be so threatening.
"Jaune are you alright!" Jaune looked to the groaning men he'd healed earlier, it was funny really, tonight both his sisters kicked their asses, yet he couldn't fault Ruby nearly as much as Yang.
"Look over there!" Turning to where Ruby gestured Jaune saw Roman climbing up the ladder Jaune looked to Ruby who nodded back feeling him empower her with his semblance as she triggered hers capturing him in a storm of petals before launching in the criminal's direction.
Turning Roman was enveloped in a tornado of white and red petals soon the white petals vanished manifesting into Jaune's form as he fell down on him with a mean left hook shooting the man out only to be hit by round after round from above as Ruby unloaded Crescent Rose. Roman struggle to stand looking between the two a scowl showing on his face.
"Dammit, how are two brats this tough." Jaune acted first shooting forward gripping Mors tightly while Ruby took aim, more than ready to assist. However, the second Jaune thrusted into the man he shattered like glass and Jaune felt a devastating pressure as a high heel came crashing down unto the top of his head.
"Jaune!" As he made his way up still dazed a foot stomped down on his head the heel cracking against aura. Slowly he worked his gaze up fortunate the assaulting was not stronger and when he saw his attacker he flinched as a young girl smiled at him sadistically. Pink, brown and white locks of long hair framed her youthful face as coral and oak eyes regarded him almost playfully. Without warning she leaped back beside the renowned criminal.
"Ah, allow me to introduce you to my lovely little assistant here Neo." Said girl smiled giving a mock curtsy, it'd be cute if not for the cruel little smile plastered on her face. Jaune assumed a proper stance as he made his way to Neo.
"Ruby take Torchwick. I'll distract her." Neo tilted her head at Jaune raising a brow as the boy advanced.
"What? You thought I was gonna send my sister against you, please I can recognize the bigger fish when I see it, or feel it axe kick the back of my skull." Neo smiled the look a tad more sincere, did people really underestimate her for her height that much? However his spine froze when she smiled at him with a cruel sadistic look before shattering.
Pain burst from his left shoulder as she delivered a second axe kick to the limb, before he could act she maneuvered leaping off him out of his blade's reach. He smiled then as he let loose an Arc of aura into the girl shattering her and no sooner did he feel a jab as Neo stomped her heel into the back of his ankle earning a howl from him.
With a roar he swung his fist trying for a lucky shot but failing utterly as Neo swerved to the side before kicking up her flexible leg slamming into Jaune's chin upper cutting him. Neo winced as he felt a few teeth chip as he tasted iron. She smiled when Jaune looked back to her. Her attention then shot to Roman as he maneuvered out of Red's way barely holding his own, deciding to help she readied to make way to him but was cut off when Jaune swung again making her move out of the arc of aura's way only to find Jaune roaring his fist pulled back.
He almost had her, but only almost as she shifted her weight avoiding the blow before gripping him by the bicep and shifting her weight legs wrapping around his arm as she locked him in a full body armlock. She went for the kill aiming to break his arm but froze when the limb burst into light and a barrier manifested, usually this wouldn't be a problem, joints tended to be the weak point but it was tougher then usual. No sooner did the Arc throw himself arm first into the ground making her let him go. Before he could recover, she leaped forward drawing Hush and going for the kill. The Dolon blade shrieked as Jaune shone like a beacon her blade not even managing to scratch his aura.
She let go of Hush the vibrations from striking stinging her hand, upon doing so she found Jaune turning her way sending out another aura infused palm but was surprised when she found not a fist but a clawed hand threatening to grab her. Quickly shifting out of the way she barely avoided the grab. When she landed she looked to Jaune finding him standing there slightly crouched, his hands out and guarded, as his blade was sheathed.
She narrowed her eyes finding the teens form annoyingly good, not enough to earn him a win against her, but in combination with those powerful barriers it would take a long minute to beat him and right now that was time Roman couldn't afford facing the runt. She pouted very much not liking that she fell into his strategy, if she turned to help Roman she'd be exposing her back and blondie's aura arcs were nothing to sneeze at.
She leaped forward deciding to wing it only for Jaune to wait till the last moment his eyes trained on her as he reached out slapping her thrusted blade away from his face before shooting a fist her way landing a blow to her face. Her struck double shattered then as she manifested behind him an axe kick ready but was shocked when pain shot through her foot as her heel met an iron like auric barrier. No sooner did he turn around eyes trained on her as he sent a mean left hook her way.
She moved to dodge it actual shock on her features as she stumbled on her pained foot, blondie didn't waste the opportunity leaping her way fist ready and balled as he struck again. Quickly she ducked and was surprised when a knee shot out connecting with her face. She sneered his way and to his surprise he smiled back.
"You're not getting past me, not till the police arrive. I might not be able to beat you, but I can keep you from supporting him." Neo glared while she saw Roman struggle but fortunately it seemed like luck had their back today as a familiar bullhead rose up. She smiled while Jaune looked in shock turning to Roman she saw the signal and turned back to blondie.
Jaune assumed a stance readying for her to attack before he clicked his tongue and faced the bullhead bulldozing past Neo, shattering her as he made his way to Ruby. Said girl was currently unloading on the bullhead where Roman and Neo stood aboard. Jaune rushed to his sister as Roman showed a ore of fire dust before tossing it Ruby's way his weapon trained on it.
"No!" He reached out to help her hoping to boost her aura in time but the explosion was to fast.
"RUBY!" He nearly lost it in that moment as fear turned to anger and then to unadulterated hate, however as the smoke cleared he saw her. Ruby unharmed as a woman stood before her a glyph manifested as she held her riding crop up. The woman was very familiar, she was the one who interviewed him and Yang after all, Glynda Goodwitch, Vale's number one Huntress and teacher at Beacon.
The woman did hesitate to act quickly turning towards Roman and letting loose a terrible force upon him and his bullhead making it shake. Roman, not a fan took aim and fired on the deputy headmistress only for her aura to flare and shield her to her surprise. Her aura reader lost it as her aura bypassed 100%. Turning around she found Jaune his open palm stretched out towards her glowing a blinding white.
She recognized him, Qrow was the type of idiot to brag about his nephew when he was drunk after all.
Turning she rose her crop applying her semblance and was shocked by the multiplied force of it. Whereas the bullhead shifted before now it creaked and dented from resisting her telekinetic pull. With a hard pull of the wrist the wing tore making the master thief panic.
"Neo!" Jaune turned finding the mini-assaulter rushing his way he pulled back his fist ready to land a blow of his own but when he connected she shattered appearing beside Roman waving his way with a cocky smile before both shattered away. Slowly the Bullhead begun to turn their way before barreling forward as a figure shot out from its window in a ball of fire.
Glynda rose her crop as she felt Jaune reinforce her aura and semblance managing to pull the ship out of its devastating decent and slowly place it to the ground. Jaune watched the odd fireball in the distance almost swearing he could see a human figure in it. Ruby however wasn't looking to the figure or roman and his hitgirl.
"You're a Huntress!" Jaune turned finding his sister right as rain next to the deputy headmistress and judging by Ruby's face she wasn't even upset over losing Roman.
"Can I have your autograph?!" Glynda on the other hand seemed quite upset by the glare she was giving him and her…
"I hope you two realize that your actions tonight will not be taken lightly. Do you even understand how much danger you two put yourselves in!" Jaune looked down trying desperately to avoid the witch of Beacon's smoldering glare, as long as he didn't talk ba-
"But they started it!" He groaned.
Dammit Ruby!
The glare she shot her made his spine freeze.
He knew he was gonna regret this.
"Hey if we didn't do anything they would've robbed that store, besides now they have one bullhead less." When those emerald orbs turned on him he wanted to cry.
Why can't I just be a bad big brother…
"Is that so… I will admit, your actions were admirable if not foolish. If it were up to me, you'd be sent home... With a pat on the back..." Ruby smiled and seeing that Jaune wanted to slap his face.
"...And a slap on the wrist." Glynda sent the crop hard against the desk making Ruby flinch back in terror and himself stiffen, However her smoldering look dampened then.
"But... there is someone here who would like to meet the two of you." From the entrance to the room a 'very' familiar figure stepped forward, the Headmaster of Beacon himself Ozpin. The enigmatic man regarded the two a faint smile present as he looked to Jaune.
"Mister Arc, a pleasant surprise to see you here." Jaune chuckled rubbing the back of his head.
"Yeah… Can't say I thought I'd run into you so soon, y'know after I… Well…"
"Resigned your invitation to attend my academy… Pardon me, suspend it until miss Rose attends." Jaune froze while Ruby went wide-eyed before looking to Jaune seeming to forget the two hunters before them.
"You what!" Jaune winced as Ruby turned on him her face torn between shock, disbelief and utter anger.
"Is that why you said that to those hussies about not going to Beacon yet! No wait, that's what's got Yang in such a fit isn't it?!" He looked away practically confirming her question.
"Is what Ozpin said true! Are you really not going this year cause of me!?"
"It's not like you did anything Rubes, it's just…"
Please don't leave me behind… I don't wanna be alone. Please…Please.
"'sigh' I promised I'd never leave you behind remember… And I have no intentions of going back on my word now." He smiled her way, the act making her heart race but also the guilt making it ache just as strongly. Tears begun to form at her eye's corners.
"I-I'm sorr-" Before she could finish he placed a hand over her head ruffling her red tipped locks.
"Hey now, this is my choice, so none of that." Ruby looked down still sad but knowing Jaune wouldn't hear anything she'd have to say against it.
"Well now that that's been cleared up perhaps you could warrant us some of your time you two." Jaune and Ruby turned to see Ozpin smiling their way and Glynda shooting the two a reprimanding look.
"Ah, r-right, sorry…" Ozpin smiled before shaking his head.
"Think nothing of it, now that that's settled I'd like to ask miss Rose some questions."
"Um… sure." Quickly Ozpin pulled up a video of Ruby during her bout with Roman, his sister working Crescent Rose like an extension of herself.
"Where did you learn to do this?"
"Um, well, Signal, Signal Academy." The Headmaster smiled.
"They taught you to use one of the most dangerous weapons ever designed?" Jaune smiled.
"No, just one, happened to have taught me how to swing Crocea Mors here too." Ozpin smiled.
"I see, Qrow then?" Both nodded smiles on their faces.
"Yeah, he's my uncle! I was complete garbage before he took me under his wing. And now, I'm all like— Hooowaaah! Witchaaaa!" Jaune smiled.
"Yeah as long as you got your weapon. Without it you're about as menacing as Zwei while he's getting a belly rub."
"Hey!" Ozpin chuckled at the back and forth from the two while Glynda herself sighed.
"Well then miss Rose, while I do know your brother's reason for wishing to pursue a life of adventure I must admit I'm quite curious to hear your reason would you tell me what an adorable girl such as yourself would be doing at a school designed to train warriors?" Ruby nodded as her face adopted a far more serious tone as she spoke.
"Well... I want to be a Huntress."
"You want to slay Grimm?" Without missing a beat Ruby begun her mouth at mach ten.
"Yeah! I only have two more years of training left at Signal! And then I'm going to apply to Beacon! Apparently 'only' my sister is starting this year…." Jaune winced at her glare.
"She's trying to become a Huntress, and I'm trying to become a Huntress cause I wanna help people. My parents always taught us to help others, so I thought, Hey, I might as well make a career out of it!" Jaune nodded agreeing to the sentiment.
"I mean the police are alright, but Huntsmen and Huntresses are just so much more romantic and exciting and cool and really, gosh, you know!" Ozpin smiled.
"Romantic you say, I wonder in what capacity that is to you." He looked over to the ever oblivious Jaune and while he hadn't noticed Ruby certainly had. Ozpin looked to Jaune, in truth having the boy reject his invitation this year was quite the blow, his semblance alone might be the saving chance Amber needed. However now the reason for his rejection was quite clear.
Not only that but alongside it a answer, one that would hopefully give both Jaune as a student and a possible solution for the fallen Fall Maiden and that answer came in the form of an adorable Silver eyed girl.
"Mister Arc, miss Rose, I have a… proposal for the two of you."
Yang barreled into Ruby wrapping her squirt of a sister into a bone crushing hug. She was so excited her little sister managed to actually get into Beacon TWO whole years early.
"Please stop…" Gasping out the words Ruby looked half dead, then again…
"Ugh… Kill me…" Looking over to Jaune she couldn't help but feel Ruby was far better off. Said knight and older brother was hunched over himself hands clamped over his mouth as he struggled against his Achilles… Motion sickness. Yang the ever compassionate twin she was took mercy upon his soul walking over to him and sitting beside Jaune. Admittedly she was still a bit peeved about him declining to attend Beacon for Rubes.
She rubbed circles into her brother's back repeating the actions he did when she'd gone on a particularly hard bender. Jaune groaned and as cruel as it was she'd admit to pulling a bit of satisfaction out of the sight softening her anger towards Jaune's obvious bias for Rubes..
"Heh, glad I won out in the genetic lottery, would've sucked if I was the one with motion sickness." Jaune groaned shooting her his best but under the current circumstances very unthreatening glare.
"I swear to Oum Yang if I blow chunks it'll be all over you…" Yang smile stiffened, once more reminded exactly how scary her brother's word could be. Ruby herself scooted back wanting to avoid the potential splash zone while shooting her sister a sympathetic look. Many things she might love about her big brother but his 'condition' wasn't one of them. Quick to avoid the danger looming over her boots Yang focused on anything else hoping to pull Jaune's attention away from his peril as well. Meaning doting on their little sister of course.
"Well like I was saying I'm so proud of you." Jaune taking the bait smiled to Ruby despite his bodies condition.
"Same." Ruby looked away.
"I didn't really do anything though, most of it was Jaune, besides Roman got away." Jaune rolled his eyes.
"You fought off Roman Torchwick sis, the guy alludes and fights off fully licensed Huntsmen regularly, your fifth-teen, that's amazing." Jaune nodded.
"Yeah…ugh, if he was even half the fighter his lil accomplice was that would be incredible for a Beacon student like me and Yang let alone a second year at Signal like you Rubes." Yang smiled.
"Exactly. Just you wait I bet everyone at Beacon is gonna think you're the bee's knees right bro." Jaune forced a smile.
"Definitely." Ruby however found no solace in their encouragements though and whined.
"I don't want to be the 'bee's knees', okay? I don't want to be any kind of knees! I just want to be a normal girl with normal knees." Yang smiled leaning in whispering in her ear.
"With a crush on her brother, yep totally normal." Ruby's face burned like her namesake.
"Yang!" Jaune watching the two smiled before it slowly turned to that of slight concern.
"Rubes… what's really wrong, I thought you'd be excited to attend with me and sis."
"Of course I'm excited... I just... 'sigh' I got moved ahead two years. I don't want people to think I'm special or anything." Both blondes shared a look nodding before gesturing Ruby between them on the seats Jaune focusing all his energy to hold down his stomach to big brother for his little sister's problem. Both put an arm around her bringing the nervous little rose into a hug.
"But you are special sis, just like mom."
"Yeah, you might be trash at CQC but your total huntress material when you have Crescent Rose there, with a good heart to boot." Ruby's cheeks blushed but slowly she nodded accepting the two's hugs. Their moment however was interrupted by the on ship television as it broadcasted the news. Showing off and informing the public on one very familiar ginger asking for any and all information on Roman.
Before they could really let it sink in however the holo-projector came on showing off Glynda Goodwitch, the sight of the deputy Headmistress making Ruby and Jaune's backs stiffen while Yang looked to the hologram curiously.
"Who's that? Seems kinda familiar."
"Hello, and welcome to Beacon. My name is Glynda Goodwitch." Yang's eyes flashed in realization.
"Oh yeah she was the totally scary lady during the interviews for our entrance in Beacon."
"You are among a privileged few who have received the honor of being selected to attend this prestigious academy! Our world is experiencing an incredible time of peace, and as future Huntsmen and Huntresses, it is your duty to uphold it. You have demonstrated the courage needed for such a task, and now it is our turn to provide you with the knowledge and the training to protect our world." Yang and Jaune smiled at the sentiments, Ruby however was too busy looking out the window to pay attention to the scary lady.
"Oh, wow! Look, you can see Signal from up here!" She was right below the entire city was in view, seeing it Ruby looked a bit more at peace while Jaune chuckled standing up willing himself beside her.
"See Rubes home isn't too far away." Yang however smiled getting both her awkward siblings in a hug forcing them to look Beacon's way.
"Come on you two, none of that, Beacons our home now and it looks awesome." Little did she know that the sudden shift she made Jaune experience was the straw that broke the motion sick induced camel's back.
"AGH!"
"AH! Jaune are you oka- Yang You have puke on your shoes!"
"Gross, gross, gross, gross!"
"Agh!"
"Oh Oum he's not stopping! Get away from me!"

Anyways This is all I got right now. Plan to upload again on New Years but no promises.

Betrayal: Nuts and Dolts 2.O = Jaune X Ruby X Penny
Ruby goes to see Jauen instead of Weiss and Blake with her wife Penny, The gyroid soon finds out Ruby's secret crush but its sensational as she sees nothing wrong with updating their Relationship with Boyfriend Jaune!
Betrayal: A Knight's Sundae Suprise = Jaune X Neo Politan X Yang Xiao-Long
Going to see her fellow Blonde Yang meets an old enemy in a very unusual situation with the resident Knight.
Betrayal: Part Knight Jaune X Neon Katt X Melanie & Militia Malachite
After making sure her boyfriend knew just how stupid he was Neon forces her dork night for a few weeks in vale and decides to enjoy the nightlife. And as it happens two only intend to enjoy her Knight all night. (Where Neon and Jaune never broke up)
A Knight's White Rose AUs
Betrayal: A Arcwitch Hunt Jaune X Glynda
Jaune was already in for the worst night of his life having to see them again. What was a possible rejection from Beacons Goodwitch by comparison? The answer he expected and what he received though were very different.
A Maroon Knight AUs
Betrayal: A Hushed Knight = Jaune X Neo Politan X Harriet Bree
Neo had been close to Jaune, he was the only one who understood her even if he didn't approve of what she did. He was her only light after Roman as faint and flickering as he was. Now he was hurt and she was angry, but more importantly, she saw a chance too good to pass up even if her parole officer wouldn't get6 off her back.
Betrayal: Bitten Junipers = Jaune X Lie Ren X Nora Valkyrie
Nora and Ren were more then-teammate they were family and what family isn't there for their brother in all but blood when he's hurting.
Burning Rose AUs (Yeah I know I haven't uploaded a single chapter for this one yet but humor me.)
Betrayal: A Renegade Knight = Jaune X Neo Politan X Vernal
Everyone deserves a second chance (except Cinder fuck her. If Cinder can come back from the dead so can Vernal!) Jaune saw another woman killed by the false maiden but he'd not be idle this time around.
that's it for my ideas for now. Also big news, if you read my React fic The Multiple Lives of Jaune Arc then I'm sure you're familiar with the Fanfic Jaune got eleven waifus pregnant by wlfmanjack. Well, I just got permission to write my own version of it. I dub it 'An Unlucky Arc?' The woman I picked are...
