As everyone turned to the new portal Azura began to speak before anyone could ask.
"Sorry about this but it seems my master would like some of you to….experience some realities.." Azura said a bit hesitant as some in the crowd looked at her.
"What kinda realites?" Emerald spoke up
"Just some random realities….for the men…..as for you ladies my master thought it would be nicer if you experienced some other forms of realities with Jaune….mainly steamy realities." Azura said with a frustrated sigh.
"Dude how come Jaune gets all the action?" Sun spoke
"W-why would your m-master want to show us that?!" Squeaked Weiss
Sigh "Young Schnee I wish I knew but as of right now 3 of you will be leaving for now" Azura said choosing to ignore sun as 3 portals opened underneath Winter, Cardin and Cinder before anyone could say otherwise. "Well then I'm sorry but idk what my master will be showing them but I do want to let you know that 3 other members will be joining us." Azura said, forcing a smile.
"I pray Winter is fine after this" Ironwood sighed, pinching the bridge in his nose.
"Who knows maybe this will get her to loosen up since she always seems to have a stick u-" Qrow started before being cut off by Ozpin
"AHEM! Miss Azura you were saying 3 other guests will be joining us?" Ozpin said before Weiss and the General attacked Qrow for his comment.
"Yes yes without further ado please welcome Mr. and Mrs. Arc along with Mr. Xiao-Long." Azura said as three beings came through the portal. The first an older looking woman with wavy long blonde hair came through in what everyone could tell was a lacy nightgown. Her face barely had a wrinkle in it for someone her age. The second was a rather larger gentleman with scraggly brownish hair and a rough beard. He wore some shorts and was without a shirt. They could all see the scars he bore after what they assumed years of battle. The last was another blonde man but he was a bit shorter than the previous and he wore cargo shorts along with a white v-neck shirt.
"Dad!" shouted Ruby and Yang as they ran to greet Tai
"Huh? Girls what is going on? Where are we?" Tai said as he hugged Ruby and fist bumped Yang.
"Well we're in this weird place so we can watch different realities based around Jaune so we can get to know him better an-" Ruby began.
"Wait wait wait who the hell is Jaune?" Tai spoke up cutting Ruby off
"That would be OUR son Tai." Spoke the woman with some ice in her tone making Tai freeze.
"Honey please try to calm down or you'll scare the kids." spoke the gentleman in a deep calming voice.
As Tai slowly turned around he saw the woman staring at him with her arms crossed under her ample chest. He quickly looked down as to not get distracted before speaking.
"U-um hey there Juniper sorry about that I apologize for speaking ill of your son." Tai said bowing a little and surprising both his daughters.
"Hmph you would do well to refrain from speaking ill of others. Especially their children." Juniper spoke coldly and Tai before turning and speaking to Ruby "Anyways what were you saying darling. I'm sorry for the interruption." She said, smiling warmly at her.
"Um so we can get to know J-jaune better and understand him more too." Ruby squeaked as she looked at Jaune's mother.
"Oh how nice!" Juniper beamed clapping her hands together and looking at her husband "Do you hear that Nicholas we'll be able to see our son and try to UNDERSTAND WHY WE HAVEN'T EVEN GOTTEN A SINGLE LETTER FROM HIM IN MONTHS"
"Haha Juniper sweetie please calm down. I'm sure he had a reason for not contacting us but before that." He started before he cleared his throat and bobbed his head to the right. As Juniper looked she saw that there were many eyes not only on her but on her husband too.
"Um… can you gents please stop staring at me." She began a small blush starting to come upon her cheeks before it vanished "And can you women stop eye raping my husband." She said with venom in her tone making most women who were staring at the Arc patriarch look away with blushes.
"H-holy shit that's what Jaune could look like when he's older" Weiss thought looking away
"I can't believe that's Jaune's mom! She's so hot!" Thought Sun and Neptune
"Damn now that is another real man" Thought Emerald thinking some dirty thoughts
"Not bad but I prefer the other version. More leaner and less hairier." thought Neo as she scratched her imaginary beard. "Still I wouldn't mind having a one night stand with him. She smirked
"Jaune could also look like that! I-I need to confess before anyone else takes him away from me." Pyrrha thought hiding her furious blush in her hands
"I am sorry about that, please excuse them as it was my fault for bringing you here without any warning." Azura said as she snapped her fingers and but clothes on the Arc parents.
"Thank you very much." Juniper said
"Anyways thank you very much Miss Azura. If we could carry on with the showings." Glynda spoke, adjusting her glasses while smacking Ozpin and Qrow to snap them out of their daze.
"Glyndy is that you? My how long has it been since we last saw you?" Nicholas spoke as he and Juniper walked towards the adults. "Ozpin, Qrow I see you two still haven't kicked that addiction of yours." He chuckled asJuniper hugged Glynda, Qrow rubbed the back of his head while Ozpin shook Nicholas hand before he turned to Ironwood. "James."
"That is General Ironwood, Mr. Arc I achieved the rank so I would appreciate it if you showed me the respect." Ironwood said
"Yes you achieved the rank James but respect is something you earn not something you are given with a rank." Juniper said with her hands on hips. "And we do not respect a fool who not only abandons comrades in favor of a mission but that so blatantly always believes what he is doing is just even if it affects innocent people."
"How dare you!" Ironwood began before a clap stopped him
"Alright enough of the hostility. You can settle your matters when you get back home but as of right now there will be no fighting alright." Azura said, looking at both parties before they nodded. "Good now if you can look towards the water screen the next reality is about to start." She ended as everyone let out a breath they didn't realize they were holding as they looked at the screen as it began showing Jaune with Ruby in a science classroom.
"Okay so it says here that we have to add a bit of gravity dust powder to the light dust in order to stabilize it and not make it go out of control." Jaune said to Ruby who looked on in worry as she had many vials of dust powder on the counter near.
"Nhhhn I can't do it." Ruby said moving back from the light dust "aaaah I knew we should've paid attention to the demonstration." She said, dropping her head to her hands "We're gonna fail Jaune I already know it."
"Why am I not surprised you two dolts are struggling" Weiss said rubbing her temples
"I-I'm sure we had a valid reason." Ruby tried defending herself
"Ruby sssshhhhh" He said as he looked around and saw everyone very focused on their own light dust. "Okay okay I have a plan." He began as he took out his scroll again looking around to see if anyone was looking. "Luckily Professor Peach is not here right now so I'm gonna text Velvet. I think she said light dust crystals help with her semblan-" Jaune was beginning before he accidentally knocked all the powder into the Light dust
"Oh for fucks sake." Mercury began facepalming
"He really needs to pay attention to his surroundings more." Neptune said as both Team RWBY and NPR nodded along with surprisingly both Arc parents.
"Uh J-jaune? That isn't supposed to happen right." Ruby said slowly backing away as their other classmates did the same. On the screen it showed the light dust begin to crack and shake violently
"Oh crap run" someone shouted as everyone began leaving the room
"W-wait my cloak" Ruby yelled having taken it off not wanting Dust to stain it.
As Jaune was running to the door he stopped and looked back to see his best friend's cloak near the combusting dust crystal.
"Oh no this is bad. It's highly dangerous!" Yelled Velvet
"No fearless leader, don't go back!" Shouted Nora shaking Ren back and forth.
N-N0ooo-raa" Ren spoke as he was shook
"This is truly bad." Tai said
Jaune ran towards the cloak even as everyone had left and closed the door. He quickly grabbed the cloak but as he began to run the dust crystal exploded. Outside in the hall everyone was far away as Professor Peach had returned and told everyone to stay away. As they waited Ruby ran up to the Professor.
"Professor Peach! You have to go in there Jaune is still there!" Ruby said with terror in her voice as the Professor looked at her in horror
"Oh gods" she said as she charged towards the door before an explosion was heard and a brilliant white light blinded her.
"M-my baby…" Juniper looked on in horror before she could do anything Azura spoke.
"Please do not worry Ma'am just keep watching."
As the light died down they could not see anything in the room as a dark plume was obscuring their vision.
"JAUNE!" Ruby dashed towards the door only for the Professor to stop her.
"Miss Rose you can not go in there, it's still highly dangerous." She said grabbing Ruby. "We need to wait for Miss Goodwitch to clear out the dust infused smoke." She said as many other students started to come into the hallway.
"Ruby what happened? Are you okay?!" Yang rushed over followed by her team and Jaune's
"R-ruby where's Jaune?" Pyrrha asked worriedly as Ruby looked down before pointing to the door.
"He went back to get my cloak" Ruby began to tear up before a loud voice spoke.
"EVERYONE GET BACK TO YOUR DORMS THIS INSTANT. AS OF NOW THIS HALLWAY IS OFF LIMITS." Came the voice of Headmistress Glynda as people started to walk away. "That means all of you too." She spoke to the seven.
"We aren't leaving" said Ren "Our friend and leader is in there." He said as Glynda immediately looked to Professor Peach who nodded.
"Please let us stay." Ruby said looking terribly sad as Miss Goodwitch sighed.
As she was about to say something they heard a soft knocking sound stopping her words from coming out. As they all looked around they heard the soft knocking come again.
"Uh Miss Goodwitch I think it's coming from the classroom." Blake said able to pinpoint the knocking due to her sensitive ears.
"Jaune!" Shouted Pyrrha, Nora and Ruby
"Don't go any closer, I have to remove the dust plume first." Miss Goodwitch spoke as she rushed to the doors window and used her semblance to push the smoke outside.
Once the room was clear she tried to look inside but saw no one except a small crater.
"D-does that mean Jaune is…" Velvet began
As Miss Goodwitch opened the door she heard a loud thud. As she looked down she saw a little boy wrapped in red rubbing his forehead where she immediately realized the door smacked him in.
"Ouch what was that for?" The young boy spoke up. Looking at the headmistress and growling at her. She noticed the boy was covered in red and had longer wilder blonde hair and saw that he was missing 3 teeth when he growled at her.
"Is that….Jaune?" Ruby asked looking at the screen
"Aaawwww he's so cute" Nora said
'I just wanna hold him' cooed Weiss looking at the little kid
"He really is adorable." Pyrrha said staring at little Jaune
"Why is he missing teeth though?" Mercury chimed in
"Oh dear oum." Juniper said sadly as both her and Nicholas head dropped to their hands
"Um are you two alright. I mean I get that you'll probably be showing up in this reality to get your son but why the sad tone." Qrow asked the parents
"Just watch the screen Qrow." Nicholas told him as they all looked back.
"M-mr. Arc? Is that you?" A shocked Goodwitch asked
"Mr. Arc?" The young boy tilted his head to the side confused. "My name isn't Mr. Arc its Jaune Arc" he stated proudly puffing out his small chest.
"Miss Goodwitch is everything alright?" Asked Pyrrha a few feet away
"Uh c-could all of you ladies and Mr. Ren come here." She stuttered, surprising her students as they had never heard their teacher stutter.
Ruby, the first to get there thanks to her semblance, was looking around the room until she noticed the young Jaune and froze. As she owlishly blinked and stared at Jaune while he stared up at her.
"You have some pretty eyes lady" Jaune said smiling up at her
"Oh uh t-thanks" Ruby replied blushing a little. 'Why am I blushing, he's a little kid.'
"Um Miss Goodwitch? W-who's that?" Blake asked as everyone was staring wide eyed at the young boy.
Sigh "That is Mr. Arc." Miss Goodwitch spoke
"Hey it's Jaune Arc!" He spoke, stomping his little foot on the ground.
"Aaawwww look at him!" Nora shouted rushing over to the kid startling him. "Our little fearless leader is a cute wittle boy" she said, hugging him close.
"You know even though I haven't known you for long. I honestly am not surprised or even shocked that Nora is the first one to go along with whatever is happening." Sun stated getting a nod from multiple people.
"Hey let me go!" Shota Jaune said as he tried to get away from Nora.
"Uh Nora maybe you should let him go before he freaks out." Weiss surprisingly said
"Shhh you. You just want to hold him too." Nora responded, getting a small blush from the heiress.
"Hahaha she got you there Weiss cream." Yang laughed, elbowing her teammate.
"Q-quiet you."
"It's okay Weiss I understand." Ruby said patting her now blushing teammates back.
"Nnnngghhh" shota Jaune squirmed as he tried to get away from Nora's hug but couldn't. "LET." "This isn't good." Spoke Juniper. "ME." "Please just release him." Chimed in Nicholas "GO!" Jaune shouted as flames burst out engulfing him and making Nora let go from the sudden heat.
"MR. ARC'' yelled Goodwitch
"JAUNE!" Shouted Pyrrha and Yang as they hurried over to the burning child
"JAUNE!" Shouted almost all of Jaune's friends.
"Holy crap he's burning up" Mercury said with a hint of excitement in his voice.
"It was nice knowing the little champ." Neo waved
As they approached the flames seemed to slowly die down before disappearing and leaving Jaune seemingly okay.
"You're ruw-" Jaune squeaked as he but his hands to his mouth and whimpered
"Are you okay Jaune?" Ruby asked as she kneeled down to the kids height.
"I biw my towge" he tried to say sticking out his tongue
"Nora please be more careful" Ren spoke as Nora gave a cat-like smile and stared at Jaune like he was a mouse.
"Professor Peach? What is going on? Why is Arc a little kid?" Weiss asked the teacher.
"Quite honestly Miss Schnee I do not know. This is the first I've ever heard of anyone being transformed into a child. Perhaps it was due to all the light dust that was in here along with the powdered….. no no no it couldn't be…...hmmm Miss Goodwitch I will try and find a solution to this in the meantime make sure he doesn't leave." Professor Peach said as she began to mutter to herself completely ignoring the headmistress and students.
"Mr-" Miss Goodwitch began at the young boy before seeing his cute little frown. "Sorry. Jaune do you remember who we are?"
"Mmmm." Shota Jaune thought before pointing his finger at Ruby. "Pwetty ewes." Then to Nora "Ruwe huggr'' then towards the Professor herself "ahd wady who cawt remeber names." He said much clearly thanks to aura fixing healing his tongue much to Miss Goodwitch's pleasure as some snickered while the others turned away.
Sigh "I know I'm not in that reality but I can still feel a migraine coming" Glynda said massaging her temples.
"You know at times like these a good stiff one always helps. Qrow said smiling
"Qrow! Not in front of the kids." Tai shouted
"I meant alcohol genius. Not all of us are pervs like you." Qrow remarked
"Actually WE will be taking that" came the voice of Nicholas as he snatched the alcohol and drinking a good amount before his wife finished it
"Oi what's the big idea now what am I supposed to drink." Qrow complained
"Qrow….please shut up. We need this more than you." Juniper said looking back at the screen
"Jaune you don't remember me?" Pyrrha spoke up
"Oh how come you only mentioned yourself hmmm? Why can't you say US Pyr?" Yang said in a teasing voice as the girl in question blushed
"I-I meant US! You don't remember us?" She corrected herself blushing while Jaune looked at everyone.
It finally dawned on the young boy that he really did not know anyone there. He slowly began to back away from them and panic began to show.
"W-where's my sisters or my mom and dad" he said with panic in his voice. "Did you do anything to them!" He tried to shout and make himself look intimidating looking around again."Where's Joan? She was with me! Where is my sister!" He shouted this time more angrily as flames and electricity began to appear on him.
Everyone watching the screen except for Jaune's parents and Coco was surprised as they had never seen Jaune angry before or even show signs of being able to make flames or electricity.
"Heyyy heyy relax Jaune. Your mom and dad along with your sisters are okay. Just relax a little and big sis Yang can show you that they're okay." Yang said smiling at Jaune trying to calm him down. As she slowly approached him he began to calm down as he saw that she meant no harm.
"Where am I?" Shota Jaune asked coming closer to Yang as she picked him up and brought him close to her chest.
"Aww you're so cute Jaune." She giggled as she pressed her cheek against his before stopping and looking back to her friends. "Ahem sorry about that anyways you're in Beacon Academy Jaune. The school for Hunter and Huntresses." She spoke as Jaune's eyes began to shine with excitement.
"Whoa! No way you're all huntsman!?" He asked in excitement.
"That's not entirely correct Jaune." This time Pyrrha spoke up walking towards them. "We are actually still in training and are trying to be huntsmen." She finished slowly trying to reach out for him only to have Yang hold him tighter.
"Huh looks like blondie isn't going to let go of your partner Nikos." Emerald smiled as Pyrrha looked on to Yang
"I'm sorry. I'm sorry but hey it's just my older sister genes coming in….please don't hurt me?" Yang said, sweating a little at Pyrrha's cold stare.
"That's still pretty cool! My sister wants to be a huntsman like my parents when she grows up." He said before his stomach grumbled. "Do you have any food? I'm hungry."
"Miss Goodwitch should we try and get in contact with Arc's family." Weiss asked, looking at the headmistress who was massaging her temple with one hand and going through her phone with the other.
"I'm already on it, Miss Schnee. If you could please keep an eye on your team along with Jaune I would appreciate it." Miss Goodwitch sighed as she began to dial a number.
As Weiss went to the end of the classroom with the group she noticed they were all trying to get Jaune's attention with whatever food they could find on them except for Ren and Blake who both stood behind the group. As they stayed there Miss Goodwitch was calling Juniper Arc.
"Glyndy?" Came Juniper's voice "My this is a rather unexpected surprise. How are you dear? I believe the last time we spoke was over 11 years ago."
"Uh I-I apologize Miss Arc for not calling anymore but I have something to discuss to you about your son Jaune." Miss Goodwitch said
"Jaune? Is he okay? He isn't hurt or anything is he?" Juniper asked with worry
"N-no no he's…..well he's become a child Ma'am." She finished wincing at herself for stuttering and pointing the camera at the young Arc in Yang's arms.
"JAUNE ARTHUR ARC! WHAT'S HAPPENED TO YOU!" She shouted making everyone in that reality and those watching jump a bit.
"Mommy!" Shouted Jaune as he wiggled his way from Yang's hold. He again surprised everyone as a small thunderbolt flashed before he was standing in front of Miss Goowitch.
"What is going on? I thought the young man had a fire semblance?" Ironwood asked confused
"Yes well I apologize as it isn't my place to tell any of you about his semblance and I believe Jaune's parents swore to never speak of it either." Azura said nodding to the Arc parents
"Does he have like two different semblances?" Ruby asked
"Just watch the screen kiddo. If they won't tell us then we shouldn't pry anymore." Said Coco who had a serious look
"Oh okay?"
As Miss Goodwitch gave her scroll to Jaune he happily took it before saying thank you. "Mommy where are you? I took my nap with Joan but when I woke up I was in this place called beacon." Jaune said
"Oh dear Oum um…" Juniper said as she got a closer look at her son. "Me and your sisters are fine baby but…... Jaune Jaune by chance do you know how old you are and what are you wearing?"
"Hmm I don't know but I didn't have my clothes so I put this on and I'm 5 mommy you should know this hehe." Shota Jaune said proudly, giving her a toothy grin with what teeth he had. "Mommy I'm hungry! Do you know these people?"
"Oh gods"
"Oh gods" Juniper paled. "Aa-alright Jaune sweetie. Don't do anything alright. Mommy knows these people, they are good friends of yours."
"THEY ARE!" Shota Jaune beamed
"Y-yes sweetie. Please give the scroll back to Glyndy okay she will be taking care of you for a few days."
"Excuse me? No wait Miss Ar-"
"Okay here you go Glyndy" Shota Jaune said happily as Miss Goodwitch could not help but want to hug the small adorable child
"Thank you Jaune." Miss Goodwitch smiled as she ruffled his hair before he ran off to the still dazed girls.
"Hey my mom says you are my friends. Does this mean we can play a game?" Shota Jaune said almost pouncing on the spot
"Of course we can Jauney" Nora the first to recover. "What do you wanna play?"
"Glynda. Listen to me very carefully." Juniper said, seriously surprising her. "You need to be very careful right now. All of Beacon is in great danger. Whatever happens do not lose sight of Jaune and give him some food. I will give you permission to use your semblance on him." she said as Glynda stared wide eyed at the matriarch.
"Wait why would you let her use her semblance on your child." Neptune asked
As everyone looked at the parents they all noticed their poker faces but what caught everyone's attention was that their eyes seemed devoid of life.
"Mr. Arc what does your wife mean by my students and Beacon being in danger?" Ozpin asked a bit curious
"Just…..watch Ozpin" Nicholas sighed
"Mrs. Arc I don't think that will be necessary. He is ju-" Glynda began
"No Glynda listen to me. Please keep him close and never and I mean NEVER pla-"
"TAG your it" Was all that was heard before a flash of lighting was heard before
*BOOM*
"NO GRAB HIM FAST!" Juniper yelled
"Oh no…" Juniper said as everyone stared wide eyed at the screen
"What on Remnant just happened?!" Glynda asked as she stared at the door with a hole in it before she looked at the teen students who were just as shocked as she was.
"H-he wanted to p-play tag…" Was all Ruby said
"Glynda call the girls over to you so they can hear me now." Juniper said panicked
"Students come here now." Miss Goodwitch shouted as the students ran to her.
"Wait shouldn't we go after Jaune?" Blake asked as she rubbed her cat ears
"You girls will go after him but after I tell you more about him…." Juniper sighed "Okay ladies and young man?" She asked looking at Ren who nodded "Right. Listen carefully everyone. You all have my permission to use whatever means necessary to catch my son. Please be very careful and do NOT let him see you if you are sneaking up on him."
"Um Isn't this a little to extrem-" Weiss began before being cut off
"No, this is not an extreme measure young lady. Right now at his age my little boy is…...more like a feral animal than a person….." She finished head down in her hands
"Why the hell would you say that about your own child." Velvet surprisingly said angrily glaring at the parents
"Yeah that's an awful thing to say." Nora said as Neo gave them a *tsk tsk* motion
"You should never speak of a child like that." Pyrrha said equally angry
"Young lady we raised our boy so please do not give us this shit." Nicholas said, pinching his nose. "What I said is not a lie and if you want to ask little Coco how he was at that age I am sure she can confirm it." He said as they looked at Coco who was shaking with fear in her eyes.
"I-its the t-ttruth Bun-Bun…..some of those times I want to ff-forget." Coco said, hugging her legs.
"Coco are you okay?" Velvet asked
"Why would you say that about Jaune!" Pyrrha said angrily
"Miss Nikos, you and your friends will be learning why I said that soon. I'm surpris-"
*BOOM* *BOOM*
Explosions were heard as the ground shook a little.
"Are we under attack?! Is it the white fang?!" Weiss asked
"No Miss Schnee….. That….. was my son….Jaune…if you want to find him…and capture him…... Just follow the….path of destruction he leaves…I would help but...you're to far away and we are taking care of our daughters.." Was all that was heard from Juniper as she could not look at everyones shocked expressions before they began moving towards the windows to see smoke rising in the distant.
As the screen began to fade everyone was silent. Shocked and even a little afraid they could do nothing but look at the parents. As all eyes were on the Arc parents they could only stare at the screen. Eyes devoid of life.
"Yeah…...that's our child…" Juniper said breaking the silence.
"Well then." Azura clapped her hands laughing nervously. "How about a quick break to give some of us time to process this."

AU Notes: Hey everyone sorry again for the sudden disappearance but I have good news. I finally have a better job and now a new computer. I will be having more time to work on my stories and I hope you will be able to enjoy them. This chapter was not my greatest but Shota Jaune will be Chaos Jaune and next chapter it will be a break from Shota to show Faunus Jaune with Ilia. Afterwards the Chaos will begin with Shota Jaune again. I have been thinking of writing a crime/humor story focused on Faunus Jaune, Ilia, Neo and Roman but don't know yet. As always leave a review as they are always appreciated and help me in learning what to improve on.
