After the last chapter became full of angst, I figured it would be good to give you all a light-hearted chapter. And what's better than Christmas and Chibis?
Side note, I will be using Chibis from the show RWBY Chibi as well as a different kind of Chibi made by Hosen-Hosen-Hocen cause his Chibis are really cute.
Christmas and New Year special: Winter Holidays (RWBY Chibi)
"REALLY?!" Nora asked, her loud voice echoing in the room. Her friends winced slightly with Blake's ears twitching as she rubbed them.
"Yes, though I should say that this card is a world where he was before getting warped. We can see where he has been but not where he is right now." Watcher said, showing the glowing card to the seven.
"Well, come on! Let's watch it! Let's watch it!" Nora said, bouncing in one place along with Ruby. The others looked at him expectantly, waiting for him to put the card.
"Alright, alright. Wait a damn second will ya." He replied as he threw the card at the screen, the seven rushing down to their seats and grabbing food. Watcher shook his head and sat down on the air waiting for the screen to start.
A few seconds ticked by, the lights were still on.
Six seconds passed, the screen did not show anything.
Finally, after the ten second mark, the seven sat confused.
"Uh, why is it not showing anything?" Yang asked after ten seconds of awkward silence.
"We've been waiting for…fifteen seconds already. Why are the lights still on?" Weiss followed with her own question, looking at the lights.
"Hey, you stupid screen! Why aren't you showing anything?!" Nora shouted as she went to the screen and kicked it. Nothing happened, so she kept hitting it, waiting for it to work like a TV.
"Nora, I don't think that's gonna work." Ren said, but Nora ignored him and kept hitting the screen.
"Nora, please stop. It's not helping. Ruby tell her to-" Weiss said as she turned to her partner but saw an empty seat instead, "Uhh, Ruby?" She asked, looking around, confused as to where she could have gone.
"Hey! I want to see my friend! Show him!" WBY all had sweat drops on the backs of their heads and deadpan eyes as they saw their leader. The young scythe wielder had stood up, used her Semblance to get to the screen and started hitting it with Crescent Rose or just kicking it. Nora then pulled out Manghild and prepared to strike at the screen.
"Have at thee, damnable screen! No one denies Nora the Lightning Valkyrie!" She then swung her hammer as hard as she could, but did not feel any impact, instead losing her balance and falling to the ground. She looked confused as she looked back and saw Watcher holding her hammer with two fingers.
"Please stop doing that. It's not gonna help here." He said, while holding Crescent Rose in his other hand with Ruby holding on to it. She dangled off the handle while he effortlessly held it up by the blade with his index finger and thumb.
"How are you doing this?" Weiss asked, seeing him effortlessly and quickly stop the two heavy weapon wielders.
"Did you forget what R said that she and I can destroy worlds?" He asked as the heiress had a slight look of embarrassment.
"Hey, let go!" Ruby said as she held onto her weapon. Watcher did so, causing Ruby to nearly fall but she refolded her weapon while he gave Nora's hammer back to her.
"Thank you. Now back to screen bashing!" Nora shouted as she went to charge at it but Watcher stopped her by grabbing her by the back of her shirt. The hammer maiden simply ran in place with her hammer held high, he sighed and lifted her up before placing her back on her seat.
"Look, I will see what's happening to the screen. Give me some time." He said as he floated up and began to tinker with the screen, gears, screws and bolts thrown out of it as the seven ducked to dodge some of the bigger ones. After several seconds, Watcher's head shot up.
"Aha! I got it!" He turned to them before he took out a toolbox, "A toolbox like this is stupid." He said as he threw it away, hitting Yang on the head.
"Hey! What gives?!" She shouted as she nursed the place where the box fell on her.
"That's for being a boring character." He then threw a wrench away which hit Blake on the head.
"What was that for?!" She shouted, feeling her forehead ache.
"That's for ruining all the characters around you who love you." He said, drawing looks of confusion from them.
"Character? What the hell are you talking about?" Yang asked, her head still hurting.
"Forget about it." He replied before gesturing to the screen, "Seems like the screen glitched again and I think I know why." He said as he floated down.
"Why?" Ruby asked, wanting to know why it didn't work.
"Well, look around you." They did and saw something that surprised them. The whole room was decorated, with paper snowflakes, lights with tree patterns and what looked like pom poms on the walls. There was even an old music player that played a cheerful song.
"What's with the decorations?" Pyrrha asked, wondering how it could have been decorated without their notice.
"Well, do you remember how I told you that there is a holiday coming in the multiverse?" He asked as Ruby's eyes lit up.
"You mean Christmas?" She asked, as Nora got excited as well.
"Yep, and it seems like the room is getting decorated for this occasion. So rejoice, you are celebrating Christmas and New Year." He said, snapping his fingers. Suddenly, a red hat with a white cotton ball on its tip appeared on his head. The room became a lot more lighted with the decorations and even the seats now had red covers with snowflake and snowman decorations. There was also a giant fir-tree a few meters away from the screen decorated with all sorts of things, from small glass balls to small reindeers, to lights and even a golden star at the top. There was also a fireplace for…some reason and socks above it with their names.
The seven felt something on their heads, their hands went to them and took them off, revealing the same hats as the one that Watcher wore. Their bodies shimmered before their outfits changed as well. Now their outfits had the color scheme of white and red with Pyrrha and Yang wearing a bit more to not make them look skimpy.
"What are these outfits?" Weiss asked, looking over herself. The color looked goofy but it made her feel happy for some reason.
"During Christmas, there is a tale of a man known as Santa Claus. He is an immortal who comes to people's homes through their chimney at night and puts presents underneath the tree and in the socks." At his words, Nora and Ruby started bouncing in one place.
"Can we meet him? Can we meet him?" they asked, the prospect of presents exciting them. Disappointment replaced it though when Watcher shook his head.
"No, I already broke rules when I allowed you to stay here. I'm not breaking any more rules, not even Santa is allowed here." A look of disappointment in their faces, "But this doesn't mean we can't pretend Santa." They looked at him with confusion and he snapped his fingers. Suddenly, Watcher's form burst into a puff of smoke, which dispersed to reveal him wearing a red coat with a black belt at the waist, red pants with white fur just below the knees and black boots on his feet. A fake beard on his face, making him look older and wiser while a seat appeared behind him.
"What the?" They asked before Watcher sat down on the chair.
"As most worlds haven't really seen Santa, many decide to put on costumes to look like him to cheer up children. They sit on his lap and he asks them what present they want for Christmas. So who wants to sit on Santa's lap and ask for presents?" He asked, patting his lap. WBY and PR looked uncertain but the other two rushed at him like children.
"Me first! Me first!" Nora said as she tried to sit down before Ruby knocked her aside using her Semblance.
"Santa!" The silver-eyed girl shouted as Watcher chuckled before clearing his throat.
"Ho Ho Ho. What do you want for Christmas Ruby Rose?" He asked in an older, wiser voice as Ruby put a hand on her chin.
"What do I want? Oh, there is so much that I want! Oh, I want an upgrade for Crescent Rose, make it sharper, and…and…and an upgrade for the sniper part! Oh maybe make it so that I can turn it into anything I want! Oh there is so much more!" She said excitedly while Watcher-Santa chuckled.
"Have you been a good girl Ruby?" Immediately, Watcher realized how his words sounded as did the seven because an awkward silence followed. One that persisted for several seconds, with crickets making noise as well.
"Wow…I mean wow. That's really awkward." Blake said with blank eyes. Ruby, in her place, looked at him with confusion.
"Eh?" She asked as Watcher cleared his throat.
"Sorry, this is the thing that Santa does. If you are on the Nice list aka didn't do anything bad and helped people, you get a present. But, if you did bad things throughout the whole year and your life, you will be put on the Naughty List where you won't receive any presents and will instead receive a lump of coal." At their looks, he had one of discomfort, "Maybe I should have said that before doing this." He muttered before clearing his throat again.
"Little Rose, have you been a nice girl this year?" He asked with a jovial voice and though it was still a bit awkward, Ruby nodded.
"I did Santa! I beat up bad guys, saved people and I'm trying to save my best friend!" She said, raising her arms up in excitement.
"Ho ho ho. Do not worry little Rose, I'm sure you will save him and you will receive your present. Now let the other kids have a turn." Ruby pouted but nodded. She stood up and hugged him before Nora sat right at his lap.
"Me next Santa!" Nora exclaimed, sitting on his lap.
"Ho ho ho, okay little Valkyrie. What do you want for Christmas?" Nora responded by pulling out a giant list.
"Tons of things! I want a sloth then I want a cool upgrade for my hammer and OH! An outfit redesign!" She said as she kept listing off things. Watcher sweat dropped as he saw it while the others had deadpan eyes as they saw that.
"Oh little Valkyrie. I have the best present for you right now!" Watcher said, causing Nora's eyes to sparkle.
"REALLY?!" he nodded, "Can you give it to me? Please!" She said, trying to pull out a puppy look. Watcher simply reached into his bag and pulled out…Ren.
"Wait, what? How did I?" He asked as he saw himself wrapped in a red ribbon ending with a big bow on his head. Nora gasped at her present and squealed before taking him into her arms.
"This is the best present EVER! Thank you Santa!" She said as she swung Ren over her shoulder with the man not trying to wriggle knowing how futile it was. Still, he had a smile on his face as Nora sat him down and sat down on his lap before hugging him. He sighed and hugged her back.
The others smiled as they saw the cute scene.
"Aww, that's sweet." Weiss said seeing the two act like lovers.
"I agree. Well, if no one else wants to sit then I guess I can show you another two worlds." Watcher said as he removed the beard and brought out two cards.
"Didn't you say that the screen glitched?" Blake asked with a raised eyebrow.
"It didn't glitch, the holidays don't allow me to show anything that isn't Christmas themed but luckily these two worlds are so let's start." Watcher explained as he threw the first card into the screen. The lights dimmed as they all sat down.
The screen showed a white background, before cheery music began to kick in and words fell out of the sky along with Ruby's symbol. The giant words spelled 'RWBY Chibi'. Suddenly, tiny versions of team RWBY appeared behind the words, their heads bigger than their bodies and their bodies themselves being kinda stubby.
"RWBY Chibi!" Four voices said as the Chibi version of the team either stood on top of the words or right next to them. WBY all had smiles and calm looks while Ruby waved at the audience with a cheery smile and closed eyes.
Ruby squealed as she saw the Chibi versions, especially one of herself.
"They are SO adorable. Oh, I want to squeeze them till they pop!" She said, her hands shaking like she wanted to squeeze something.
"Heh, can't argue with that. They are really cute." Yang said, noticing her Chibi version looking calm while also looking really cute.
"Aww, I wish I could hug them." Nora whined while still sitting on Ren's lap.
The scene changed to show a living room/kitchen where decorations had been set up. In the living room, Penny and Velvet sat around either looking at their presents or trying to figure out what they were. Weiss sat on a couch with a book in her hands while Ren stood in the kitchen next to the oven preparing cookies.
"Every chibi in Beacon liked the holiday season." Ozpin's voice said as Ruby came into the room. A giant snowball covering her head as she tried to remove it, while mumbling something all while the others laughed as they saw her predicament. Only Penny looked concerned.
The seven either chuckled or smiled as they saw that with Ruby pouting.
"Not funny guys." She said with crossed arms while Yang snickered, remembering how Ruby once turned into a snowball when she tried to use her Semblance as a sleigh.
"This is really adorable though." Pyrrha said, resisting the urge to fawn over the cute looks.
"Yes…very adorable…" Weiss replied, seeing herself be so tiny yet so cute at the same time.
"This chibi loathed it for who knows what reason." Suddenly, Roman appeared outside the window with an angry look as the camera focused on him.
"Oh come on. Does he have to ruin everything?" Yang asked, seeing the chibi criminal.
"Just keep watching Yang. You might be surprised." Watcher said, still in his Santa outfit.
"Ugh, curses!" Roman shouted as he threw his hat on the ground, "It's my least favorite time of the year! Nondescript Winter Holiday!" Next to him, a woman stood dressed in clothing that basically screamed her style. Her hair is half brown and half pink with several white strands on the pink side. Her eye color is a weird mix, with right eye being pink and her left eye being brown. Even the outfit reflected her, a white cropped wide broad tailed jacket with a pink interior and color, a brown corset underneath exposing her hips, brown pants with a dark belt and white heeled boots on her feet. An assortment of beads around her neck as an accessory and black gloves on her hands.
She bent down and picked up his hat, dusting it off before putting it on his head. A snowman in between them, made to look like her, especially with brown and pink eyes.
Yang clenched her fists at the sight of the woman, the memories of fighting her still in her mind.
"Who's that?" Nora asked, having never seen the woman before.
"Neopolitan. Roman Torchwick's partner in crime." Watcher replied.
"Really? I mean she looks anything but a criminal. Look at her!" Nora said, gesturing to the ice cream themed woman.
"Wait, Neopolitan? As in ice cream?" Yang asked to which Watcher nodded. The blonde sat quite for a second…before she began to chuckle slightly.
"She is a literal walking ice cream pun." The brawler said.
"A time of year when everyone is nice and loving and everyone 'cares' about one another," Roman started with a sarcastic tone and doing quotes with his hand, "But no one cares about me!" He stomped the ground and crossed his arms at the last part. Neo stood in place listening to his rant before she pulled out a sign out of…somewhere.
'I think you're alright!' The sign said as Neo smiled at her partner.
"Where did she get that sign?" Weiss asked, not seeing where she would hide it.
"And why isn't she speaking?" Blake asked, raising an eyebrow.
"She is mute…in most of the worlds. In some, she just likes to troll people." Watcher answered.
"I find Roman whining about like a kid really funny. I mean, a criminal acts like a child! Imagine that!" Yang said as she laughed at Chibi Torchwick.
"Nagh!" he groaned loudly, scaring Neo to throwing her sign away, "I wish I could cancel this stupid holiday for good. But stealing all the presents and decorations won't do. No." Neo rolled her eyes at his words while one of snowman's eyes began to fall. She put it back in its place.
"The holiday isn't about the material possessions. They are about the spirit of the season and nothing can stop that." He looked and sounded defeated at the last point, "Until NOW! HAHAHA!" He suddenly shouted as he jumped up.
"Oh please, what can he possibly have that will break the holiday season?" Weiss asked, not seeing how he could do it.
"BEHOLD!" He shouted as he and Neo looked at an invention in front of them…which was basically a vacuum cleaner made to look evil, "The Spirit Sucker!" And had a stupid name apparently.
"The only thing that sucks is its name." Yang said hearing the stupid name.
"And its design." Blake added, seeing the goofy design.
Neo seemed to think that as well as she pulled out a sign.
'What sucks is the name.' She had a deadpan look as she pulled that out, not impressed with the name.
"Even she agrees with me." Yang said, popping a popcorn into her mouth.
"With this device, I'm gonna suck the holiday spirit out of each and every little miserable brat in Beacon!" Neo had an evil grin on her face at that, "Then, Nondescript Winter Holiday will be ruined forever!" The snowman behind them began to melt as Neo clapped at his plan while Roman laughed maniacally.
"Come on Neo. Tis the season for sorrow!"
"This has to be THE dumbest and most ridiculous evil plan I have ever heard." Weiss said with deadpan eyes.
"Well, this is the entire point of this world. Everything is happy, shiny but also…REALLY dumb. You should see the time Weiss used her grandma's tricycle to win a race against Ruby and Yang." Watcher said, causing Yang and Nora to laugh. Weiss had an indignant look as she heard that.
"I bet that tricycle had a stupid name as well!" Ruby said, trying to hold in her laughter.
"It does. 'Stardust'." The seven paused for a second…before Yang, Nora and Ruby burst out laughing. Pyrrha giggled slightly while Blake and Ren had small smiles on their faces.
"Stardust?! Seriously?!" Yang asked while looking at Weiss, "Next thing you are gonna tell me you actually had that tricycle!" Weiss looked down with a blush, causing them to stop laughing.
"Seriously?" Blake asked before Weiss glared at her.
"Hey, I didn't have any other gift from grandma so, screw you!" She said as she huffed and sat down with crossed arms. Her teammates looked at each other before they sat down.
"Sorry for that Weiss." Yang said as Weiss looked away.
"You are lucky that I can forgive my teammates." She said before she refocused on the screen.
"And so, armed with a ray gun, his cane and hat…" the scene changed to show Sun trying to put the star on the Holiday tree. A ray gun sneaked up behind him before sucking away a glittering energy from him. He turned gray, his face turned to one of sorrow as he fell off the tree.
"The chibi vowed sorrow…" The scene changed to Weiss making a snow angel with a happy face outside before Roman came up and sucked away her Holiday spirit.
Yang snickered as she saw that.
"Hehe, 'snow angel'." She said, imitating Jaune's voice. Weiss gave her a deadpan look, completely unimpressed.
"Really?" She asked, to which Yang just shrugged.
"…And delivered just that." Yang and Blake stood next to a large present, looking flattered. The box opened as the Spirit Sucker sucked away their Holiday Spirit, leaving both girls tired, unenthusiastic and sad.
Ruby stood in the kitchen with a cookie in hand ready to eat it…before Roman came in and sucked away not only her spirit but also the chocolate chips on the cookie.
"Aww, what's the point?" She asked with big teary eyes. Though, she seemed sadder at the loss of the chips than her spirit.
"Aww, poor me." Ruby said, looking at the kicked puppy look on her Chibi's face.
"Somehow, I have a feeling you pity her for losing the chocolate more than her spirit." Nora said.
"Of course! Cookies without chocolate chips are not true cookies!" Ruby declared, while her team rolled their eyes at their leader's behavior.
'And this is my leader/sister.' they thought, with Weiss wondering how she is supposed to introduce her to her sister.
Roman laughed evilly as he stood next to a giant bag.
"We did it Neo! Nondescript Winter Holiday is ruined!" He said, sounding as if he earned a million Lien.
"You are a monster!" Nora shouted at him with the others confused as to why she would do that.
"All that's left now is to dispose of this giant bag of Holiday Spirit." He said as he pulled at it while Neo pushed it, unable to move it.
"Need any help?" Roman's eyes snapped open as he heard Ruby's voice behind him. He turned around seeing RWBY looking at him.
"Huh? But-you-how?! What are you kids doing? You are supposed to feel miserable and sad, now willing to help!" He said, being slightly dramatic as Neo watched from behind the bag.
"Well, you sapped our Nondescript Winter Holiday spirit…"
"Which is the dumbest thing that I have ever heard in my life." Weiss muttered with crossed arms.
"But, that doesn't mean we don't still love each other and want to help people," Yang said with a smile.
"Yeah, we're not mean." Weiss said, arms crossed.
"Not all of us at least." Blake said with a smile, prompting Weiss to frown at her.
"So do you need help with whatever it is you're doing?" Ruby asked again.
"Aww, look at them acting so cute and friendly! I just want to reach out and squeeze them!" Ruby said, seeing their interactions while the rest chuckled.
"I do agree with chibi Yang here. You lost your spirit but doesn't mean you can't help people." Pyrrha said, earning a chuckle from Watcher.
"Oh boy."
"Wha-?" Roman stood shocked at their answer, "I-I-I don't need help! I don't need any of you! He seemed to have a mental breakdown as he reached towards the bag and grabbed it.
"Leave me alone!"
"But in that moment, the mean Chibi stopped, the holiday sack had apparently popped." Apparently, Roman pulled at it too much and the sack had a little tear. Glowing white spirit energy came out like wisps towards Roman who had swirly eyes and held his head.
"And suddenly Torchwick heard himself say:" Roman's expression changed to one of happiness as his body glowed with the positive spirit of the holiday, "I think my heart grew three sizes today."
"That's…one of the most heartwarming, yet cringeworthy and weird things I have ever heard in my life." Weiss said with a blank look.
"I want to feel good for him, but he said it so funnily I can't help but laugh." Yang said, giggling at his face.
"How does a heart grow three sizes?" Pyrrha asked with a raised eyebrow.
"It just does Pyrrha. It just does." Watcher said, waiting for the moment.
"What am I doing? What have I done?" he looked genuinely shocked at his actions, "Take back all your spirit and let's have some fun." He aimed his weapon at the sack and shot it, causing it to explode. The stolen spirit came out and fell like snow to the ground. The team looked up to see the beautiful sigh with Ruby standing next to Roman.
"Oh, Torchwick, we're so sorry if you felt left out earlier. All you have to do is say so." She said, cheerfully.
"Well, Red, I might still try to kill you and all your friends from time to time, but I'm sorry for being such a gr-" He suddenly stopped as his pupils shrank, "Such a-" His hand went to his chest as a heartbeat is heard. He fell to the ground clutching his chest and his cane.
"Ow."
"You okay?" Ruby asked, confused.
"I can't feel my left arm." Was all he said before he fell. Neo came up beside him holding a sign with an 'Uh-oh' on it. Seconds later, an ambulance came up and took Torchwick.
"You know, I guess having your heart suddenly grow three sizes isn't very good for your body." Ruby said, nonchalantly.
"I expected that the moment he said it." Blake said, not at all surprised.
"Yeah, stories like these say it as a metaphor but something like that can be really dangerous." Watcher said, shaking his head.
'How the hell did the Grinch survive having his heart grow that fast? He should be dead within several weeks if that were to happen.' He thought with a sigh.
"Hey gang," Jaune said as they looked over to see JNPR standing wearing sweaters.
"You guys are all ready to look for a perfect holiday tree?" Nora asked, wearing a blue sweater.
"What?" Ruby asked, not knowing what they were talking about.
"Wait, which parody are we doing?" Jaune asked, seeing the absence of sweaters on RWBY.
"Not whichever one you're doing." Weiss said. After that RWBY with Jaune realizing what she meant.
"Ah, good grief." His palm met his face as Zwei barked right beside him.
"Even Zwei looks super cute. I wish we could see more of this world." Ruby said as the lights came back on. The screen ejected a card which expanded to show RWBY and JNPR standing next to each other with the words Chibi right on top of them.
"Don't get up yet. I think there is still a world to show." Watcher said and true to his words, the lights dimmed again with the screen glowing.
A single room with shelves, tables, chairs and a bed. Lights decorated the room, with pictures of Santa and trees. The room seemed no different than the standard dorm room seen in Beacon, but it had one little difference. Or rather, differences.
Behind a small rock on a table, a small house stood, fit for toys. Suddenly, the door opened and a tiny hand reached out. The other hand reached out as well before the upper body revealed itself fully. A tiny Jaune Arc crawled out of the house with all his strength, looking no different, with the exception of bunny ears on his head and better armor.
Squeals sounded out, nearly deafening Ren as he tried to cover his poor ears.
"OH MY GOSH! OH MY GOSH! OH MY GOSH! HE IS SO ADORABLE!" Ruby shouted, looking at the tiny version of Jaune trying to escape a house.
"Look at him Pyrrha! Look at him!" Nora said, excitedly shaking Pyrrha. The red haired champion had a dumb smile on her face as she looked at the Jaune on screen, hands clenching and unclenching.
"Cute." She whispered, wanting to hug tiny Jaune for all that he was worth.
"Bunny faunus? Really?" Yang asked, giggling and cooing at the adorable chibi Jaune.
"I can hold myself, I can hold myself." Weiss said to herself, while Blake chuckled.
'This is cuter than the last world.' She thought as Watcher smiled at the sight of a different Chibi Jaune.
The blonde bunny-eared young Chibi tried his best to crawl out of the house. But as soon as he managed to get a meter away from the front door, he got pulled inside. In the house, he sighed as he lay at the bottom of a pile. The pile actually being his family.
At the top lay his oldest sister, a woman with blonde hair a shade lighter than his and lighter blue eyes. She had a red shirt on with a white top tank underneath and orange pants. She lay content at the top hugging her siblings.
Next to her lay his second oldest sister. Her blonde hair is a shade darker though but the same shade of blue eyes as his. A beige vest over orange top and light brown trousers on her legs and orange boots on her feet. She also seemed to have a wedding ring on her hand.
At the right of the pile, his tomboyish sister lay with drool coming out of her mouth. Her hair is a shade lighter than his with the same blue eyes. A green sleeveless hoodie on her upper body and a pair of brown pants on her lower part with brown boots. A small band-aid on her cheek as she lay with a firm grip on her siblings
The twin sisters of the family lay on either sides of him. Both wearing the same long sleeved blue shirts, black jackets and black pants with black boots. Their hairs put in a ponytail as they cuddled up to him.
His most feminine sister lay next to the twins, her hair several shades darker than his and more unkempt. She wore a light purple blazer and dark pink skirt. With a content smile, she wrapped her arm around her sister and lay content.
Finally, his smartest sister lay on the left next to Saphron, glasses on her face and a headband on her head. She wore a blue shirt under a white blazer and blue skirt with knee high blue boots.
The sisters lay atop their brother, their bunny ears twitching as they stirred in their sleep.
"AWW! SO CUTE!" Nora said, seeing the sibling pile.
"So that's how his sisters look." Yang said, seeing the different outfits and faces.
"I don't know if I should be jealous that he has such a good relationship with his siblings or glad that I don't have to deal with that many." Weiss said, seeing how close the siblings were.
"I don't think I can live with seven Yangs at once." Ruby said, shivering at the thought of that many sisters.
"So two of them are twins huh? Well, I guess that his mother had a bit of an easier time if what we are seeing is true." Yang said, still amazed that a woman could endure that much.
Jaune rolled his eyes as he tried to get out of the pile, hands clawing at the ground in an effort to get out. No matter how he tried though, his sisters wouldn't let go or get up .He wanted to go out dammit! It was Christmas! No way was he missing that!
He pondered on what to do, leaning on his hand and tapping the ground. He could try using his sword to escape, but his sisters didn't let him move. He could try crawling out again but that wouldn't work too. He needed help. Any kind of help.
A pat on his cheek snapped him out of his thoughts and he turned to see his nephew Adrian poking and patting his cheek and giggling at him.
Now there was cooing as the females looked at the baby.
"Oh, who's a good little boy!" Weiss couldn't hold it in and with wide eyes cooed at the baby as did Yang.
"Adrian Cotta-Arc. Jaune's nephew, though I should note that in some instances he is also his son." Watcher said, bringing an awkward silence into the room. It persisted for several seconds with grasshoppers cricketing.
"Uh, when you say 'son' you mean Jaune…well…" Yang struggled to bring out words, as did the others.
"Fucked his sister?" He asked bluntly, causing them to cringe in disgust.
"Well, yes and no. In many worlds, his sister Saphron is married to a woman and because they wanted a child, they decided to use two methods. Artificial Insemination or In vitro Fertilization."
"What are those?" Ruby asked, confused at the hard sounding words.
"Artificial Insemination is when doctors use sperm from an unknown donor or close man and deliver it directly to the cervix or womb of a woman. In vitro Fertilization is a medical procedure where the egg is fertilized with a sperm outside the body. Usually in a tube. In many worlds, Jaune volunteered to help them using either of the two, so his nephew is also his son in these cases. Although in some worlds, his sister just lets him fuck her wife and sometimes joins in as we-"
"That's enough!" Weiss shouted, her face a mix of green and red.
"Yeah, I don't wanna hear that as well on top of the shit we already see on the screen." Yang said, the others nodding as well.
"Believe it or not, 'Arcest' or Arc sibling incest is something that happens in many worlds." Watcher said, having lost any sense of morality on the subject after seeing many such worlds.
Jaune looked at his nephew, brow raised in thought as Adrian clapped his hands. His eyes went to his sister Saphron before a lightbulb appeared over his head. Literally. There was a lit lightbulb over his head. He looked at it in confusion before throwing it away.
He grabbed his nephew and whispered something in his ear as his nephew giggled. Jaune then put on a pair of earbuds and put them on his ears as his nephew went to get a toy trumpet. Jaune gave a thumbs-up as his nephew took a deep breath and brought the trumpet to his mouth while his uncle started clawing out.
A loud, annoying sound came out of the trumpet as Jaune continued to crawl out with earbuds in both pairs of ears. His sisters though, woke up startled from the annoying sound with his twin sisters letting him go and the rest jumping away from the pile. The result is Jaune ended up launched out of the house, his body tumbling away comically and kicking up dust on his way. Finally, he skidded to a halt with his face planted on the desk.
"Clever. Use the ears as a weak point while their guard is down." Blake said, chuckling as he saw Jaune skid to a halt.
"That's gotta hurt though." Ren said, seeing Jaune get launched out.
Jaune stood up, rubbing his head from the impact. His hands went to his ears, rubbing them to make sure they weren't hurt. He then dusted himself and looked around, a smile on his face as he bounced on one spot. Finally, he could go outside! And he knew who exactly to go to first.
The scene changed to show a pair of headphones blaring music loudly, a tiny person at the center, bobbing her head to the music while she sat in one place.
"Oh my gosh! Look at me!" Ruby said, seeing the chibi version of herself, sitting content and cute.
"Man, she is really small." Nora said seeing the girl.
"Are those your headphones?" Yang asked, seeing them.
The Chibi sat in her new outfit, specifically made to endure cold weather. Her eyes closed, she enjoyed the beat of the song, cat ears twitching and tail swishing around and weapon discarded. She was so focused on the music, she didn't hear or see a person stalking up to her. Jaune approached her from behind, his hand on her shoulder. Unfortunately, that startled her and she grabbed his hand before throwing him to the ground in a fit of panic. He groaned in pain, feeling his back hit the hardwood.
Ruby looked down to see herself holding Jaune's hand and him lying on the ground. She let go of his hand and yelped, before apologizing. The blonde forgave her and stood up asking her to hang out. He pointed above her, showing the decorations and her eyes widened. She grabbed his hand and used her Semblance to get to the others.
"Well, I wonder what they are planning." Weiss said, curious as to what the two Chibi could be up to.
"Seems like a date to me." Blake said.
Wrapped up in Ruby's petals the two sped around, eventually appearing before NPR and WBY who either lay around or seemed to be busy. The six looked up as Ruby and Jaune appeared in petals. The red caped leader began to bounce up and down, apparently trying to tell them something. Her team looked interested as Jaune continued her words, showing the decorations and spreading his arms as if telling them to do the same. The two teams looked excited especially as Weiss went to the window and saw the decorations outside.
The two teams then went different ways, each member beginning to get ready for the holiday event. Both teams came out wearing Christmas apparel, ready to make the big day great. The two leaders went to get more people while the rest began to get everything ready for dinner.
"Does everyone have cat ears on their heads?" Blake asked.
"Yes, with the exception of few that is." Watcher explained as he readied a few presents for them.
Jaune and Ruby first found Glynda and Winter hanging out in one place. The two leaders went to the adults, inviting them to an upcoming dinner. Glynda and Winter agreed to come later as the two left to search for more people.
They came across Raven Branwen drinking with her brother as well as Sienna Khan and Cinder. They listened to the two leaders' suggestion for a dinner, Sienna dismissing it while Cinder outright rejected. Qrow on the hand, agreed with his sister doing so albeit reluctantly.
After a few more minutes they then found Neopolitan next to a giant bowl of ice cream and Velvet and Coco inside a giant coffee mug. They all agreed to go to the dinner as the two leaders left to get everything ready.
"Even an enemy like Cinder huh? Well, I guess I can't blame those two." Pyrrha said, seeing how non-threatening this world was.
The hour came close to eleven o'clock. The two teams worked tirelessly to get the tables and snacks ready, while decorating the place heavily. They put balloons, paper snowflakes, snowmen and even ice sculptures to make everything livelier.
Soon enough, the guest began to come in with some reluctance and some surprising but that did not deter the holiday spirit especially with dinner coming. Jaune looked at the watch to see if he timed it right and sure enough, he did. The Chibis looked up and saw a giant hand put a giant plate with a turkey on it next to their table. After about an hour or eating, drinking and having fun, Jaune suddenly felt a hand on his shoulder. He looked behind and gulped as he saw his sisters looking at him with smiles hiding their anger.
"Heh, busted." Yang chuckled, seeing the sisters.
Jaune tried to run but his sisters caught him and piled on him again. Everyone else simply laughed as the evening dinner went exactly as planned. Jaune grumbled in his position under the pile before Ruby and Pyrrha came up and kissed his cheeks causing him to blush. His nephew then hugged his head, making him smile as the camera panned out to show the party in full swing.
The lights lit up again as the screen spat the card out. Watcher caught it showing a picture of neko chibi RWBY and JNPR.
"That was really wholesome." Yang said, the others agreeing with her.
"Yeah, it's definitely a breath of fresh air after all these dark worlds." Ruby said as she stood up, stretching.
"Well, I'm glad that you liked it. Now look behind you." Watcher said as he teleported the presents. The seven turned around and saw wrapped presents with their names on the tags. Ruby squealed and ran to hers, already tearing it open and sending ribbons and paper everywhere.
"Happy Holidays! I decided to give you all presents for your first Christmas." He said as Ruby pulled out a new version of her outfit as well as attachments of some kind.
"That's a modified version of your outfit, now with a more durable material to make sure it doesn't tear off or burn. The attachments are for your weapon's rifle part as well as sharpeners for the scythe's blades. Trust me, you will like them." Watcher said as Ruby admired the outfit. The chest area seemed to be bigger which caused her to have a smile. She grabbed the attachments and watched in awe as they seemingly attached themselves onto Crescent Rose, the blades sharpened to a ridiculous degree.
Nora rushed at her own present and tore it open to reveal a black jacket with a heart on the back as well as a blade next to it.
"The jacket has lightning woven into it if you ever need it and the blade is for your hammer. Now you can both smash with one side and cut with the other." Nora put the jacket on, feeling the lightning surge through her. The blade attached itself to her hammer, seamlessly merging and turning the hammer into an axe-hammer hybrid. She tried turning it into a grenade launcher and the axe turned into a bayonet below the barrel.
"Awesome!" Nora shouted as she turned it into the melee weapon again and raised it above her, "I rename you Storm Breaker! For you shall help me break legs with the ferocity of the Storm!" Lightning ran up her body and bounced off her weapon making her look cool.
"My turn!" Yang said as she opened hers, revealing a pair of gloves and yellow boots, "Cool!" She put the gloves on and watched in awe as they seemed to merge with Ember Celica. She put the boots on and watched as they extended up to her knees.
"An upgrade for Ember Celica, now the bracers are attached to gloves and can turn into gloves that protect your forearms. The knuckle parts have metal pieces to increase damage and the boots can turn into greaves to help you against opponents specializing in kicks as well as protect your ankles." Watcher explained, seeing Yang whistle at the upgrades. She weaponized her gloves and watched as the gloves turned into gauntlets, protecting her hands. She punched and stared in wonder as two shells flew out instead of one.
"Double barrel? Cool!" She said as Weiss opened her own present. Within lay a white dress and an attachment to Mirtenaster.
"Great design." Weiss said, inspecting the dress before putting the attachment to Mirtenaster. The attachment strengthened the blade.
"The dress has several armored parts on it to help you if you run out of aura and the attachment makes the blade sharper and stronger." She nodded in thanks as Blake pulled out a redesigned version of her outfit. It looked a lot like ninja clothing, the faunus raised an eyebrow before taking a chain out of her box.
"Thought you might need ninja clothing in the future, the chain is for Gambol Shroud, you can use it instead of the bow when it is in a kusarigama mode." The chains attached themselves onto her weapon as Blake pulled the weapon out and put it in a kusarigama mode before swinging it around. The chain rattled as the black haired girl pulled it, the weapon firing before Blake returned it.
"Thanks, I guess." Blake told him and he nodded. Ren opened his and found some armor for his outfit, specifically for the feet and hands and an upgrade for Storm Flowers. He put the armor on, feeling the slight weight change while the upgrade gave Storm Flowers grappling hooks.
"Some armor for the martial artist and hooks in order to get closer to your enemies." The magenta-eyed boy nodded in thanks as he put his weapon away.
Finally, Pyrrha opened hers and found a new outfit for herself, the armor now extended to her arms instead of just her upper body. A pair of jeans with armor on the thigh parts and an upgrade for Milo.
"Thought you might need a new outfit cause yours basically screams 'look up my skirt and chest'." She blushed at that as she put the outfit down and the upgrade attached itself to her spear, "Blade attachment really. Allows the blade to be sharper and in rifle mode, gives you a bayonet." True to his words, the red blade covered the spear's own blade and turned into bayonet in the rifle form.
"Thank you. We appreciate your presents." Pyrrha said with the rest nodding.
"Eh, it's nothing. Just thought I could help you to prepare for the future." Watcher said before he grinned, "Hey Ren, Nora, look up." The two looked confused before they looked up and saw an ornament hanging over their heads.
"What's that?" Nora asked, looking at it.
"Mistletoe, there is a tradition that whoever stands under it must kiss the other person standing under it." He said, a grin beneath his mask. The two partners saw that they stood under it together, causing them to blush.
"Oh, um, well…" Nora stammered as she looked down while Ren had a small blush on his cheeks. The man looked at the host who urged him to kiss Nora, he gulped and grabbed his partner's chin, forcing her to look up before he kissed her. The hammer maiden's eyes widened slightly before she melted into the kiss while the others looked happy for their friends.
"Told ya they would kiss. Pay up Weiss." Yang said as the heiress grumbled and handed 20 Lien to the blonde. She pocketed it as the pair stopped kissing and looked at each other.
"So…I guess we're together-together now?" Nora asked as Ren looked at her with a black look before bringing his finger to her nose.
"Boop." She smiled and hugged him while Watcher chuckled.
"Well, come on. There is a whole buffet of food for the holidays in the kitchen." He said as he gestured to them to follow. The seven followed him before a portal appeared and a present hit Watcher on his face. He picked it up and saw a letter on the side.
"Happy Holidays, dork. Signed, R." Watcher read before he opened the present, pulling out a photo. He smiled as he saw it and looked up.
"Happy Holidays to you too, R." he said as he and the others went to the kitchen.
R sat on the couch of her room, playing with her weapon and watching TV. A portal appeared and a small present came out of it. She picked it up and opened it to reveal a red scarf.
"Here is your present R. Happy Holidays." She read the letter attached to it and scoffed, recognizing Watcher's handwriting. She put the scarf on and looked back at the screen.
"Welcome to Dates with Destiny! A dating show where our man guy, Yuki Azure will have dates with many females within and outside Remnant!" Rick Sanchez on the TV said as R chuckled.
"I wonder if I should apply myself as a candidate. Could be fun, I hope the guy can be a good challenge with his Semblance." R said as she drank from a bottle of whiskey, while seeing Jaune dating a girl called Lapis and could sense Pyrrha's jealousy.
"Glad that he is not chasing Weiss though." She said as she turned up the volume and continued to watch, her room decorated with Christmas themed decorations.
She then turned to the audience reading this fanfic.
"Happy Holidays to you all! May you all be good people! Now get the fuck out of my room!" She threw a bottle at the camera, breaking it and it fell to the ground.
TO BE CONTINUED…
A/N: Well, here is your Holiday Special chapter. Tis the season to be jolly so why not show Chibis? I admit, I just wanted to lighten things up with this chapter to not make everything so angsty after the last chapter. Yes, I gave the teams presents, minor things to help them out really.
Quick question: Who liked how Whitley was portrayed in the last two Volumes? Honestly, RT subverted my expectations with him. I expected him to be an irredeemable brat but he ended up being a lonely child who simply wanted love from his family. He has everything…and yet he has nothing at the same time. Wealth and Reputation? One mistake can ruin it all. Father? Kind of a manipulative bastard. Mother? Drunk neglect. Sisters? Both left him. I can't help but draw comparisons with Jaune. They are both younger brothers and have families who have a lot of history but one is happy while the other is miserable. I wish they had more interactions with each other, it might have helped Whitley.
Anyway, thank you for reading this chapter and I will see you all later. Also, Happy Holidays everyone! May the next year be better than the last (naïve I know, but I'm tired of being a pessimist).
