Chapter 31: Government At Our Door
RWBY and JNPR's existence has just been discovered and to make it worse, Keaton was looking for them alongside the government.
"So Jacob, you care to tell me why you are harboring a group of fictional characters?" Keaton asked.
"Keaton, seriously what is going on here?" Judy asked.
"Can you guys give us a minute?" Keaton asked.
"Fine, but you better tell us what's going on after this," Judy said as she and Leon walked off with Ashley.
"So I guess we don't have much of a choice, but cooperate at this point," Jacob said.
"Pretty much," Keaton said.
"Alright fine," Jacob sighed.
"Jacob, what are you doing?" Yang asked.
"Look they obviously know of your existence so let's just see what they want," Jacob said.
"What we want to know is how you guys got here and why," Keaton said.
"What's gonna happen to us?" Ruby asked.
"That's for the government to decide. And no, we are not going to dissect you or anything like that if that's what you are thinking," Keaton said.
"What about my friends and I?" Jacob asked.
"You guys are going too," his brother answered.
"And our families?" Jacob asked.
"They'll have to be briefed on this, but they're coming as well," Keaton said.
"Should I call my friends and let them know?" Jacob asked.
"I would do so, that way they don't do anything rash," Keaton answered.
Jacob quickly reached into his pocket and grabbed his phone then speed dialed Kelly's phone. Jacob waited for Kelly to answer until he got an answer.
"Hello?" Kelly called.
"Kelly, it's Jacob. Listen, my brother and some government agents are at my house and they know about RWBY and JNPR," Jacob said into his phone.
"What?!" Kelly yelled through the phone, making Jacob flinch.
"Look they don't seem to be wanting to take us by force, They mostly want to know how they got here and why, so don't do anything stupid and I'll let Britney know," Jacob said.
"Alright I'll tell them," Kelly said.
"Alright. Bye," Jacob said, then hung up his phone. Jacob then speed dialed Britney's phone, waiting for Britney to answer until she called.
"Hello?" Britney called through the phone.
"Britney, it's Jacob," he answered on his phone.
"Jacob, what's going on?" Britney asked.
"Britney, listen up. The government is on to us. They know about RWBY and JNPR," Jacob said.
"What?! Are you kidding me?!" Britney shouted, making Jacob flinch once again.
"Listen, they have no intention of harming them and they want to help. So let Rebecca and the others know, alright?" Jacob asked.
"Okay," Britney answered.
"Good, just don't do anything haisty, okay? Bye," Jacob said, then hung up.
Jacob looks over to Keaton wondering what will happen next.
"So what now?" he asked.
"We should tell Uncle Leon and Aunt Judy," Keaton said.
"Right. Uncle Leon. Aunt Judy. Can you guys come in here for a minute?" Jacob called out.
Just then, Leon and Judy came into the living room with Ashley in Judy's arms.
"So what is going on here?" Judy asked.
"Um... how do we say this?" Jacob said to himself.
"The government has reason to believe that Jacob and his friends have encountered and harbored a group of interdimensional extraterrestrials," Keaton said.
"Huh?" both Leon and Judy asked.
"In other words, aliens that are from a TV show," Keaton said.
"Actually, it's a web show," Jacob corrected.
"Whatever," Keaton said.
"Wait, what?" Leon asked confusingly.
"Is this supposed to be a joke?" Judy asked.
"Ruby, show them," Jacob said.
Ruby nodded then used her semblance to speed around the living room, living behind a trail of rose petals. Leon and Judy stood in shock while Ashley laughed and clapped her hands. Keaton, although he saw how Ruby's semblance works, was surprised that it happened right in front of him.
"What... was... that?" Judy hesitatingly said, trying her best not to scream.
"Let me explain," Jacob said.
McFoley Residence
Back at Kelly's house, Kelly's parents just got home and Kelly and her friends were all discussing what to do when the government gets her house.
"So it's going to be a matter of time until the men in black show up," Ricky said.
"What are we gonna do?" Jaune asked.
"Guys relax. Jacob said they are not gonna attack us, they just want to know how you guys got here and why. So let's not do anything stupid," Kelly said.
Everyone then heard a knock at the front door and Mrs. McFoley went to answer the door. She opened the door revealing to be Sergeant Cassandra Rogers.
"Are you the legal guardian of Kelly McFoley?" Cassandra asked.
"Yes. Can I help you?" Mrs. McFoley asked.
"They're here," Allen said.
"I'll go talk to them," Kelly said, walking down the stairs.
Mrs. McFoley and Cassandra both notice Kelly coming up to them.
"Are you Kelly McFoley?" Cassandra asked.
"Yeah," Kelly answered.
"Can the rest of you friends come down?" Cassandra asked.
"Guys, come on down!" Kelly called to the others.
As soon as she called, Allen and Ricky came down the stairs, now standing next to Kelly.
"I also mean the other ones too," Cassandra said.
Weiss, Blake, and JNPR all then came down the stairs.
"Good. Now we all have a lot to talk about," The sergeant said.
Connor Residence
Britney and her friends all discuss what to do when the government arrives.
"I'm so worried about Ruby and the others," Rebecca said.
"Calm down, Rebecca. I'm sure there is nothing to worry about," Britney said.
"Yeah, Jacob did say that his brother was with them," Robert said.
Then they all heard a knock at the door and Helen went over to answer it. She opened the door and saw two people. The first was Sergeant Alex Barker and the other was a muscular man that was too familiar to Helen and Britney. He was wearing brown shoes, dark blue pants with a police badge on his waist, and a black t-shirt. He was bald and had a goatee and mustache.
"Will, who is that with you?" Helen asked the man known as Will.
"This guy said that he needs to talk with our daughter and her friends," Will said looking over at them.
"I've got a few questions to ask you," Alex said to the group.
Prescott Residence
"So let me get this straight, Jacob and his friends discovered a group of people that are from a fictional web show and there's a secret war going on there, and the government believes that it will eventually find its way here, on this planet?" Leon asked.
"Yep," Jacob, Keaton, Ruby, and Yang all said in unison.
"So what are you told to do?" Judy asks Keaton.
"If you all agree to come with us, then the government can try to figure this out and send them back because the information they now possess can change everything. They also told me that is up to you to decide," Keaton said.
"So Jacob what do you say?" Keaton asked.
Jacob then started to think about whether he should go along with it or not.
Autor's note: I coming up with weapons for all the high schoolers. I already came up with Jacob's weapon and its name. But I want to hear your suggestions on what their weaponry and the names should be. It is a few chapters away until I make the official.
