We begin season 2 with the most awesome food fight, but now we see how JNPR fairs with Jaune's tactical mind.


Chapter 15: Seige of Fort JNPR

Beacon Cafeteria

"So, Jaune, please explain to me again, why and where did you make a flag of this 'British Empire' you serve?" asked Pyrrha.

Jaune, who had said flag in a nice fold, replied casually "To answer why, I just felt like we'll be needing it soon. As to where, I found this company in the internet that makes custom flags."

"I doubt that you'd find it on the internet that quickly." mused Ren.

"You'd be right."

"Oh. Blake?" asked Ren.

"Blake." replied Jaune.

Then, JPR looked at Nora who was throwing various food at Yang.

"Aren't you gonna stop him Ren?" asked Pyrrha.

The stoic ninja shook his head "I won't even try to stop it. If I did, it wouldn't matter."

Jaune shrugged and continued eating.

Everything was going pleasantly for JNPR until Nora...

"I GOT IT!"

"What..."

Then Jaune saw Yang trying to wave Nora off as she threw it

The pie flew into the air...

...and right into the face of a standing Weiss.

"Ren..." sighed the Arc.

"Yes Jaune?"

"I hope we still have those grapes."

"Yes sir."

Then, the pie started to slide off Weiss and revealed her now furious face.

"When I imagined that I'd see a Queen, I never knew it would be an Ice Queen..." Jaune muttered as Weiss started to march over to their table.

"Now Weiss... maybe it just a-" The rifleman began but before he could finish, the Heiress grabbed another pie and slammed it right in his blazer.

"This act of war will not be tolerated." Jaune said as he gave her the stinkeye.

"As second in command of team RWBY, I accept your challenge." Weiss replied as she walked towards her team.

Jaune looked at Ren who tossed him a grape.

At RWBY's table, Weiss sat down with her team as Ruby handed her a napkin.

"So what happened?" asked Yang.

"The kingdom of JNPR have declared war on us and will engage us in a battle that will determine who will be the nest team in the first years." the Heiress declared.

"What kind of battle?" asked Ruby.

"A food fight... if that's what you guys call it."

Ruby's face lit up as she started planning "Well, let's start gathering pies and use the table as cov- URK!"

She was unfortunately cut off by a grape.

The remainder of RWBY looked at who could've launched a grape that fast and then saw the culprit.

Jaune Arc. Colonel of the South Essex and now leader of JNPR. Currently giving orders to his team.

Ruby began to stir up again and groaned "Uh... what happened..."

"CHOSEN MEN!"

Then all of a sudden, tables began to fly as students started to run away from what was causing the commotion.

It was the rest of team JNPR rearranging the tables into a fort that began to look indestructible.

"What's the plan Ruby?" asked Yang.

"Stand by." her sister ordered.

Then, the last of the tables finally joined Fort JNPR as Nora and Ren began to hoist the flag of the British Empire in front of the fort.

"SHOW THE COLOURS!" shouted leader of JNPR.

Then, the flag flew high and mighty as it began to look like a fort to be reckoned with.

Inside the fort, Jaune and Pyrrha began to organize defences by placing rows of tables in order to make makeshift catapults.

Large watermelons filled their defences as Jaune began to stand in front of the fort.

"COME GET SOME YA BUGGERS!" he challenged the astonished RWBY.

Their leader was the first to snap out of it and picked up a milk carton.

"JUSTICE WILL BE SWIFT! JUSTICE WILL BE QUICK!" then she pointed at Fort JNPR "IT WILL BE... DELICIOUS!" she finished as her own team gave a warcry.

Jaune ran into his fort and began issuing more orders "Seargent Major Nikos! Tell the Chosen Men to hold fire!"

Pyrrha nodded as she held her hand to signal Nora and Ren to hold.

Yang and Blake began to charge forward with Yang using turkeys in place of her gauntlets while Blake was her support with two baguettes.

"Are all ranks ready?"

"Yes they are Jaune!"

"FIRST RANK, FIRE!" he commanded.

Upon command, Nora launched the first trio of watermelons.

Yang easily took care of them as she punched each one into pieces.

"SECOND RANK, FIRE!"

Ren then launched the next trio.

Yang was about to punch them as well, but lost focus when Jaune launched a grape at her head.

The impact affected her greatly as she stumbled right into Jaune's plan.

All three watermelons hit her and knocked her out of the fight temporarily.

Blake charged ahead and started dodging the incoming artillery.

However she was now being charged by Ren with his own baguette and the two began to engage each other in close quarters combat.

As the two started to duke it out, Jaune used a bottle as a makeshift spy glass as he spotted Ruby and Weiss charging to assist Blake.

"THIRD AND FOURTH RANK! FIRE!"

Pyrrha and Nora nodded and simultaneously launched their third and fourth ranks before reloading all of their makeshift artillery.

"Pyrrha! Nora! Hold the fort!" Jaune said as he sped off with his grapes.

After picking a target, Jaune placed a grape into his straw and blew into it.

The grape popped out of the other end and charged towards Blake.

Plonk

And the grape hit her square on the head as well.

"Ren! Fall back! I'll give you some cover!" Jaune yelled as he loaded another grape into his straw.

He releases yet another grape, however, Ruby grabs a tray and deflects it right back at him.

He fortunately dodges this and shouts "ALL RANKS! FIRE!"

Then from inside Fort JNPR, several more watermelons launch into the sky and rain hell on the other two members of RWBY.

Weiss got hit the most and was knocked down.

Ruby, who managed to dodged the bulk of the melon strikes, looked at her recovering team and rallied them once more.

Jaune did the same and led a charge against their sister team.

Then, the two opposing forces met.

Yang went against Nora.

Blake went against Ren.

Ruby took on Pyrrha.

And Jaune took on Weiss.

The two who were oriented in the art of fencing, began to duel as such.

Weiss had her grace and smooth movements.

Jaune brought his fierce strenght and critical thinking.

Although their swords were merely bread, Jaune was relatively surprised on how sturdy they are.

Nonetheless, he soldiered on and continued to duel the Heiress.

Wherever she would strike, he would parry or dodge.

Then, the former leader of the South Essex striked back.

The tide turned in Jaune's favour as he slowly began to back Weiss down to the point that she nearly lost her footing.

"First lesson of battle," he taunted "keep yer feet."

Then he made a "cut" on her left cheek just like he did to Captain Wickham.

She was about to retort when she heard something smash.

Both of them looked at the source and saw Nora with an improvised melon hammer, and a giant holr above the ceiling.

"One down Weiss, ready to join Yang?"

"I-"

"Whoops. Too slow" he immedietly cut off before slamming another pie on her head.

This caused the Heiress to get knocked out, mostly due to getting tired of pie on her head.

"We've damaged them enough! Chosen Man Nora! Cover the retreat!" ordered the rifleman.

"Yessireee!" complied the Sloth Queen.

Then, Jaune raised his "sword" (I meant the baguette you FILTH!) and signalled Ren and Pyrrha to disengage Ruby and Blake.

The two did so, with Nora covering them by tossing the various cans of Soda she had at her disposal.

This managed to hold back the two standing members of RWBY as Ruby noticed the unconscious Weiss.

"WEISS!" The reaper yelled.

She ran to her side and clutched her. Leaving Blake to face the stie JNPR, who at this point, secured themselves in their fort once more.

Then, as she charged on, a single volley of watermelons launched from the fort and took her by surprise as they smashed right on her head.

Down, went the resident cat of RWBY.

Then silence.

Jaune once again takes a look at the battlefield with his makeshift spyglass and sees that Ruby was "mourning" Weiss' supposed downfall.

Pyrrha approached him from behind with a questioning look.

"They seemed to have taken our thrashing badly" joked Jaune.

"It seems so Colonel Arc." smiled his partner.

The leader of JNPR smiled before he shouted towards the sulking Ruby "Ruby Rose! You have fought well and hard, but in the end, you have been outmatched and outnumbered. Forfeit and we shall put an end to this conflict."

The Little Reaper didn't respond.

Jaune's Chosen Men held their fire.

The Arc, while waiting for Ruby to answer, showed Pyrrha various cans of soda that were scattered among the sides.

"If Ruby doesn't surrender, she's going to use her semblance to outrun all of our artillery," He stated "if she does, Pyrrha I want you to use those cans to disorient her while I try to do the same with the grapes. Once she loses focus, the Chosen Men will release a full volley."

Pyrrha nodded in agreement while Ren and Nora prepared to fire a full volley.

Then, Jaune saw it.

Ruby stood up, a look of determination in her eyes.

"There it is. Seargent Major Nikos, on my command."

"Ready." came her reply.

"Chosen Men?"

"Ready as we can ever be Colonel!" cheered Nora.

Then, with no other considerations, Ruby dashed towards Fort JNPR.

"Steady lads..."

The Reaper began to pick up speed.

"Steady..."

She was about to activate her semblance.

"NOW!"

Then, Pyrrha, with her semblance, started slam several soda cans into Ruby's direction.

Each can mimmicked an explosive.

Unfortunately, Jaune's grape rifle was also firing upon her, and it didn't help that he was aiming for her head.

Eventually, she did begin to lose focus and slowed down, and Jaune immediatly took advantage of this opening.

"FIRE!"

Ren and Nora didn't need to be told twice as the two began to fire the last of their makeshift artillery upon the last standing member of RWBY.

Ruby looked up, and the last thing she saw before her vision went red.

Finally, victory was theirs.

"Did we hit her?!" asked a very excited Nora.

Jaune smiled and gave her a thumbs up.

That was Ren's que to protect himself as Nora leaped in joy and began to hug him.

Pyrrha smiled at her partner who was rather happier than normal.

"Well, I guess we take the top spot of best first team year ever eh?"

"We probably did. Thanks to you of course." replief the Champion.

As team RWB_ was still recovering, the doors slammed open and revealed one angry Glynda Goodwitch.

"Ah shit..." Jaune cursed to himself.

"Out of the fort! Don't forget the colours!" ordered the rifleman as his team began to run outside of their makeshift fort, bringing Jaune's stainless flag, and watched as the Witch of Beacon began to use her semblance to repair anything that was destroyed, whilst rearranging the chairs and tables.

Ren fortunately was fast enough to grab the Jaune's Ensign.

They soon started to fall in front of Miss Goodwitch as she remained focus on her task of repairations whilst burning a hole right into JNPR and RWBY's souls.

Then, the final table slammed itself back into place.

Jaune was more than ready to recieve his executio as Miss Goodwitch walked fowards them, with the resident Rifleman holding the British Colours with pride.

"Children... please do not play with your food." she said in an oddly calm manner.

It did not help in the slightest.

The silence was short lived as Yang finally came crashing down the ground, leaving yet another hole in the cieling.

No one except Glynda laughed. Yes, even Weiss laughed.

Ruby, after laughing for quite awhile, looked at the flag Jaune was holding.

"Oooohh... nice flag Jaune."

"Thanks, too bad you didn't have your own." teased the Arc.

"Well, we didn't exactly think that we were playing capture the flag."

"Touchè."

The group of friends continued to laugh as if Miss Goodwitch wasn't there.

Speaking of her, she was about to tug their ears and have them all sent to detention when Ozpin stopped her.

"Let it go." he reassured her.

She sighed "They're supposed to be the protectors of the world."

"That, they shall become soon, but they are still children. So, let them play the part..."

"...it's a part that they cannot play forever." He stated solemnly.
