"We should have a comedy…" Orb said to no one, flipping through a book.
"A comedy?" Ruby and Tai said hopefully. One for the lightheartedness, the other for puns.
"Yes… now I just have to find one. Ehh, Trailers while I'm looking!" Orb announced, a clapping sound emitting from him.
"Did… Did you just clap?" Ghira asked.
"Yes."
"You have no hands!"
"So?"
Ghira sputtered at this, before leaning over to his wife. "I'm not comfortable." he muttered, freaked out by a handless clapping.
"It will be fine dear. Ignore the orb and just watch."
The scene opened up to a city skyline.
"You know, I had a pretty nice life." Jaune said in a voice over. "Nice full time office job. Apartment in the city." The camera cut to a new york coffee shop that was slightly busy.
"And then I met her." the Camera zoomed in on Yang Xiao Long, working as a barista.
"Yang! It's you again!" Ruby said, pointing out her sister.
"Yes, yes it is. Why am I here again?" Yang asked no one.
The scene cut to Jaune opening a door, a dorky looking sweater and scarf attached to his lanky frame. He got in line to hopefully get coffee. He shuffled through the line, flipping through his scroll. When it was his turn, he looked up. "I'll take aaa…." Jaune lost his words once he looked at the blonde. "You going to order there, loverboy?" Yang snipped with a smile.
Raven just giggled. "I'm glad that I got to watch this." she murmured to her husband.
"Oh?"
'It helps fill me in on what I missed." she said. "I look forward to getting to know my daughter."
Yang and Qrows head whipped to the Brawnren. "Who are you and what have you done with my sister?" Qrow asked. Raven just shrugged. "I had an epiphany."
The camera zoomed in through Jaunes blue eyes, flashing scenes of skydiving with the other blonde, going on what looked like a coffee date, surfacing from a dock gasping for air in classy clothes, dancing at a bar, braving an ocean storm. The two of them collapsing onto the sands of a beach, laughing and clearly drunk. The camera zoomed out of Jaunes eye as he shook himself out of his blip.
"I'll take a Caramel Americano." The cup was returned with a number and an unknown pun on it.
The scene ended with a blazing yellow text, the bottom cracking into cobalt blue: A Thousand Days Under a Blazing Sun.
"A Rom-com?" Glynda asked with a yawn.
"It would seem so." James said with a bored yawn. Secretly he was giddy inside. He loved rom-coms and they were a guilty pleasure of his. Ozpin gave his friend a knowing look.
Kali squealed, grabbing Ghira's arm. "We must see that!"
Drums started in the theater once more, gaining everyone's attention.
The scene opened up to cultists bowing down before a large statue before changing to a white car driving down the streets of eastern Minstral. "If adventure has a name, it must be Indiana Arc." Peter Ports' voice said as several scenes flashed. The Cult room to a very pretty Weiss in a sequin dress to a shirtless Jaune Arc running on a bridge. Indiana Jones' theme song played as it showed Jaune swing though a mine, getting on a runaway plane, and him and Oscar Pine in a room, spikes slowly descending upon them. "THIS IS SERIOUS!" he yelled. An evil looking Watts in a skull hat glared down at the camera. "From Ozpin and Peter Port, Indiana Arc and the Temple of Doom." A car chase flashed on the screen followed by a shoot out, before a cut to the temple of doom. The title card showed on the screen as a plane took off into the sunset.
Yang and Nora bounced in their seats. "Ohhh! It's Indy Jaune again!" Nora said, happy to see this version.
"The archeologist?" Tai managed to guess.
"Yup! He's really smart and cool!" Nora said excitedly, bouncing in her seat.
"Someone's a fan." Neptune chuckled.
The screen came to life once more. Soft Eastern Minstrel lute and Sitar played in the background as a man in Japanese style armor and a white cloth draped over his shoulders walked on a dirt road. A Katana rested on his hip.
"Oh, Ghira look! He's a Samurai!" Kali gasped, appreciating that her culture was being appreciated.
"A what now?" Ruby asked, unfamiliar with the term.
"An ancient fighter during and pre great war. They fell out of style with the creation of firearms." Pyrrha explained to the shorter redhead. Ruby just nodded.
The scene pans and shifts to the white warrior standing before Kali and Ghira, dressed as Japanese nobles. "Rise, Warrior, and show us your face." Kali states regally. Ren stands to the side, also a Samurai.
"Renny! You're a Samurai- thingy!" Nora pointed out before Ren once again used his semblance on the girl, muting her energy.
Jaune removed his helmet and shawl, revealing a sculpted and blonde beard and long shoulder length hair.
"We are taking away Jaunes Razors." Pyrrha said definitely.
"Agreed." Yang said, drooling over the facial haired arc.
A scene cut to Ren's accusatory voice echoing over the scene of Jaune looking over soldiers training. "You would leave the defence of our people to a foreigner? A faker, mocker of our ways?".
The scene cut again to Jaune walking in a farming village, catching Blakes eyes. A quick smile and advertising of the eyes left them both with a bit of a blush. Another scene to Jaune, shirtless, training. Kali leaned over to her Daughter, whispering in her ear "either you give me grandchildren or I'm making you a new sibling." the horrified look on Blakes face.
"MOTHER!" Blake yelled. Kali just looked on lustfully. "What? You can't blame me, just look at everyone else." Blake looked around at the various women in the theater, and noticed they were all staring at the blonde's body. "Mama Likey." was the dazed mutter of Yang. The men just looked in envy at the actor worthy body.
The scene cut again to Jaune and Blake in Yukatas gazing at each other lovingly. They moved in closer as fireworks went off in the background.
Pyrrha was getting increasingly ticked off. Why is it never me? Why are all of them romances? WHY?
The scene changed once again to Jaune and Ren fighting side by side. "Never thought I would die next to a foreigner." Ren said as another enemy fell
"How about a friend?" Jaune asked as they both snickered at the response. The scene ended as the title card, the words "最後を照らす, Light the Last." etched into a Katana blade.
"What does that say?" Wiess asked her teammate. Blake responded "It says Saigo o terasu, or Light the Last. It's eastern minstral."
"What does that mean?" Ruby asked, confused. "Last the light? It makes no sense."
Ghira started to snicker. So did Sienna Khan. "what?" Ruby asked.
"I suppose that you would not know of the story. Last the light is a story about a foreigner that could wield the sun." Ghira explained. "He just apparently showed up one day in a town, caught the attention of a noble house, and fought a war. Then he disappeared with the noble's daughter."
Ruby considered it for a moment. "What do you mean by "Could Wield the Sun?"
Ghira and Sienna just shrugged.
"Ah! I found something!" Orb cried out, holding up a disk. It vanished into air as the screen flickered to life once more
Jaune woke up, most certainly hung over. "Owwww…. What happened?" he said, looking around the bedroom he rested in. on his left, a silver haired girl covered in vine like veins . On his right, Blake Belladonna slept. They were both most certainly naked, although that did not connect any synapse in the hangover Arcs brain. He leaned over and kissed them both on the head as he shrugged on a black and gold robe looking thing, along with a pair of blue pants. He entered an office looking room, looking around. "Where in the fuck am I?" he asked as he collasped into a large chair, looking at the decorative white fang mask that served as a paperweight.
"Ok, what is going on? I understand he was drunk, but…" Qrow asked, confused. Blake was just horrified that she was in bed with not only Jaune, but some other girl as well. "Two at once? Not bad for a noodle." Mercury said, ignoring the fact that Jaune in the scene could not be considered a noodle. Lean? Yes, but not a noodle.
"Uhh, boss?" a faunus said, peeking through the door.
"Yes?" Jaune looked up, clearly hungover. "Come in, please."
"Right, uhh… boss… can I call you that? So, Boss, we got some people that want to see you and-"
"Right, right. Uhh, before you bring them in, give me a recap. Why am I boss again?" Jaune asked, fumbling for a Jar of something to drink to relieve his headache.
"Because you're the strongest, boss." at this, Jaune gave a laugh. The name Perry floated into his mind.
"Perry, There is no way that is true. So please, tell me exactly what happened."
Perry shifted upwards, shocked that someone remembered his name. "You remember me Boss! That's great, I can't believe someone remembered my name, I-" Jaune rummaged through the cabinet, pulling out a particularly strong bottle of alcohol. Taking a sniff, he blinked in disgust, turning his head away from it. Back it went. "Perry. What happened, remember?"
"So the dunce can remember his subordinate's name, but not how he gained said subordinate?" Weiss asked, enforcing her dolt opinion of the Arc.
"You would not be able to remember jack shit if you drank as much as he did." Orb said with a bit of sharp tone. Wiess just humphed at the retort
"Well, you kind of stumbled in on our latest operating zone, ranting about how terrible our PR was and whoever was incharge of it should be shot." Jaune eyes widened as the camera zoomed in through them, showing a bar.
"Flashback time." Emerald said as Cinder watched, intrigued how this Arc boy managed to be the head of the white fang in Vale.
The scene showed the inside of a rather rustic looking bar, where Sun, Jaune, Yang, Ren and Nora sat around the bar, laughing and drinking.
"Hey, I recognize that place!" Qrow said, punching Tai in the shoulder. "I took you there when you and Summer got… Married…" Qrows enthusiasm died with the last bit, looking at his sister with worry.
"It's… fine. It's not like I had any claim to Tai at the time." Raven said, waiving it off.
"Dude, seriously, take a drink. Ren's designated group controller, not you." Sun laughed as he gulped his beer. Jaune rolled his eyes as he sipped a Cola. "Bartender, something strong for my friend here!" Yang laughed. Ren just sighed, patting him on the shoulder.
"I'm not leaving until I get piss drunk, am I?" Jaune asked.
"NOPE!" Nora smiled, booping her leader on the nose. Jaune just sighed
"This Nora girl, I've noticed that she's…. Energetic?" Winter leaned over to her sister, trying to make conversation.
"Yes. Very. She is an embodiment of Chaos. You get use to it." Weiss sighed, thinking back on the shenanigans that Nora brought upon them.
"Ah. I see. A universal trait, perhaps?"
"Perhaps. That would make sense that everyone is kind of the same throughout the multiverse."
A relatively large glass of whiskey was placed in front of him. Jaune looked at his friends and sighed before downing it in one go. They cheered. The scene became tinted and kind of woozy
"Oh boy, the kids a light weight." Qrow sighed, prepping for the worst.
"Yes and no." Orb responded to him. "He can drink a lot, he just gets tispy easy. Getting him past that is difficult."
In the tinted screen, it showed Jaune sitting at a table, stacks of mugs next to him as he brought a burly man down under the table. Another cut showed him Dancing a jig with Nora and Yang, laughing and smiling. A third scene was him talking? Flirting? To a group of women who were most certainly giving him a pretty eye.
"Well, at least he seems to be a pretty fun drunk." Sun said, already plotting to get him in a similar position. Nora just giggled at Jaune dancing drunk
The scene became untinted when he and Ren were carrying their drinking buddies back. As Jaune carried Sun and Yang like they were nothing, sipping and singing from a bottle of some booze. "Be shure the' get beck toh thear homeses, all'ight?" he slurs to both Ren and the bullhead pilot. "What about you, Jaune?" Ren asked, concerned that he was not joining them.
"I'mma Take over the world!" Jaune practically sang as he took a swig from the bottle, walking off.
"Ya know, the' world wood be betta if, hic, all theses Faunus issue's wernta thing. Wha did Sun call em? A cult, Yeah. I gotta fix thet" Jaune mumbled as he stumbled around, eventually stumbling across the white fang committing another robbery.
"Oh no. the dolt is going to get himself killed, confronting the white fage like that." Weiss grumbled.
"I have to say that I agree. We have not seen anything that would indicate that he can take on the white fang, much less while drunk."
Sienna Khan grumbled. "We are not a cult. Or terrorists. We're freedom fighters."
"Keep telling yourself that." Kali smiled forcefully.
"Guys, relly? Anotha one? We gotta talk." Jaune sighed, looking into his now empty bottle.
"Gah, A human! Kill him!" Perry said, pointing at him with his gun. The rest of the fang opened fire at the leader. He just yawned as his Aura took the blows. Once the firing ended, Jaune just stood there, his current clothes kind of ruined. "Wha… Who are you?" Perry asked in astoundment. Jaune took on a face of confusion for a moment, trying to remember what his name was. It slipped through the cracks of his drunkenness.
"Ehhhh, started with J. let's go with that. Call me Jay!" A much more sober, but still drunk Jaune smiled.
"Oh Monty he is drunk." Tai grumbled, remembering what Qrow was like really drunk. Raven agreed with her husband.
"Is no one going to comment on the fact that he just face tanked, like, amillion bullets?" Sun pointed out. He was met with silence.
"Uhh…. Jay? You should be dead, Jay." A silver haired spider faunus said, not sure what she was seeing. Jaune just shrugged as he walked towards Perry, putting a hand on his shoulder. "Ehh, I hear that too many times a day." he smiled charismatically. "Why don't you take me to your hideout, eh?"
"Uhh.. what?"
"Uhh… what?" Blake asked, astounded at his cockyness.
Yang looked at Sun and they shared a look. "We are getting Jaune drunk." Yang said. Sun nodded in agreement
"Absolutely not. You will not be purposefully getting any of my students drunk. Even if it means that Arc loses all sense of self preservation."
"Look. you guys are kind of fucked, ya know. You all went from a peaceful equality organization that actually worked to a terrorist cult in less than a year. I means, come on. How in the world does someone do that? Besides the white fang, of course."
"We are not a cult!" Sienna Khan, enraged
"We are not a cult! Or terrorists!" Perry protested, and was about to speak again before Jaune put his finger in front of the faunus lips.
"You guys have a uniform, repeatedly attack businesses, act on loose ideals and morals, and act violently. Four checks for terrorism. Now, you guys have a uniform, are led by a violent psychopath, have no idea what you're even really chasing, act irrationally, and there's more I'm sure. Now, we've gots more than four checks for occultism."
"Led by a Violent Psychopath?! Taurus is dead when i get my hands on him." Sienna growled, wringing the bottle of soda she held in her hand. Ghira patted the tiger faunus on her shoulder, knowing what it was like to have evil or asshole subordinates
"I'm sorry, what?" Perry asked as Jaune just sighed, tightening his grip on the faunus shoulder. "Actually, why do you guys work For Torchwick? I mean, he's not even a Faun-Faunus." Jaune stumbled over the world in his drunkenness. The Faunus looked at eachother, now questioning why they followed the human.
"Uhhh…." Perry said, not sure how to respond. The scene cut to Jaune talking and laughing with various members of the white fang, including the spider faunus he woke up with. She was taking to Jaune very, very well, and most certainly flirting with him.
They came to the White Fang warehouse that they were hiding in. Jaune walked in ahead of his newly acquired friends, pushing the double doors open.
"He's going in, without a plan, guns blazing?" Neptune asked in confusion
"Yes and no. Jaune does not have a gun." Orb responded with dry humor. It took a moment for Tai and Yang to get the joke, but once they did they gave it a chuckle
"A Human! What are you doing here in White Fang territory?!" a fang grunt yelled as he and others aimed at him.
"Woah, woah. I'm just here to talk. Who's in charge here?" Jaune asked, putting his hands up lazily. As though the firearms pointed at him did not matter. He glimmered a fading white as he asked the question.
"What was that?" Goodwitch asked, recognizing it as a form of aura, but not what.
"Excess Aura." Orb responded, much to everyone's confusion,
"Huh? How do you have excess aura?" Emerald asked, unsure of how that could be. Aura was your soul, right? How could you have more soul than you can contain?
"Due to Jaunes frankly ridiculous amount of aura, his body does not have the natural capacity to hold it all at standby, so it locks it up to prevent Jaune from turning himself into a living energy bomb. While drunk, his body no longer does that, so it vents the excess aura." Orb explained, much to everyone's shock.
"You mean that this kid has got so much aura that his body literally cannot handle it? So it represses it?" Qrow asked, astounded.
"Yup. if it makes you feel better, once he took a whole salvo of X-15's to the face and just kept on keeping on." Ironwood and Winter's jaws dropped, and Penny was still trying to process how much aura it would take to absorb all that.
"Uhh… what is an X-15?" Ruby asked, because it sounded like a weapon.
"An experimental type of missile right now. One of the strongest ever made that can be justifiably used." Orb responded, pulling up a hologram for the reaper. "A salvo is about 12 of those by the way."
The white fang looked at eachother, then back at the blonde knight. "Uhh, you want to meet Adam?" one of them asked.
"Is he the person in charge here?" Jaune responded, walking forwards just a bit.
"Uhhh… yeah, but he's not here right now. I can get the second if you want…" the grunt started as a large brutish looking man came into the scene, a chainsaw strapped to his back.
RWBY gulped. "We fought him once on the train. He is pretty strong, and that chainsaw is no joke." Yang said, fearing for the dorky knight.
"Who are you?" Banesaw asked, pointing the saw at the Arc.
"Ehh, that really doen't matter. No one of consequence. So, you're in charge, right? Great." Jaune smiled, but his face became hard and menacing. "WHO EVER IN THE FUCKING HELL IS IN CHARGE OF PR SHOULD BE SHOT!" He snapped, slamming his fist into a table. Which split in half upon the impact. "I MEAN, YOU GUYS WENT FROM A TOLERATED AND LOVED PEACE ORGANIZATION INTO A TERRORIST CULT IN LESS THAN A YEAR, JESUS CHRIST!"
"Who is Jesus Christ?" Qrow asked,
"A man who was believed to be the son of god in a universe. I'm surprised that drunk Jaune knows who he is." Orb explained to the dusty old crow.
"I mean, really," Jaune said, his voice softening into his normal tone. "Where did you guys go wrong?" he shook his head like a disappointed father.
"That it." Banesaw growled as he revved up his saw. Jaune sighed as though this happened a hundred times a day. The saw met contact with the knights arm. And did nothing.
The theater was prepared to see him lose an arm. They were not prepared for him to take the blade without so much of a flinch. Several jaws hit the floor.
"What is he made of?" Roman asked in stunned amazement.
"All American Beef." Orb deadpanned for a moment, before breaking into a chuckle. That got him a couple looks.
"Wha-wha- How did you-?" Bane stuttered, bringing his saw blade away from the unharmed hunter.
"Magic. So… about that new management?" Jaune said with a wave of his hand. The other Faunus just opened up on him. The scene was filled with dust from the bullets, and that went on for a couple minutes. The dust cleared to reveal what had happened to the poor drunk Jaune
"No way he could survive that, regardless of how much aura they have." Cinder stated firmly, as though her world dictated what would happen. Orb, not that anyone could see, smiled evilly. If only she knew.
Jaune stood there, shield expanded and hanging at his side. "Are you done?" he asked, not even caring about the sheer amount of bullets he just face tanked. The silence he was met with was telling. "Alrighty then, my turn."
Jaune threw his shield at some of the grunts on the second floor before charging in. A fang grunt's face met the flat of Caroca Mors, and another met Jaunes free fist. As the grunts threw themselves at the knight, with either guns or blades, they were brought low. Not killed, just rendered unable to fight. A particular faunus found a pommel to his kneecap before it was kicked inwards.
"WHOOOOHOOO! Go fearless leader! Break their legs!" Nora cheered at Jaune kicking ass.
"Nora please…" Her monk friend sighed.
The camera shifted to follow the shield that Jaune threw, which bounced around like a pinball Captain America style. It bounced to shoot from behind Jaune, whacking a goon in the face. Spinning upwards, Jaune caught his shield on the down arc.
"That thing does not obey the laws of physics at all." Ruby said as Penny agreed. "It does seem to avoid both the laws of gravity and contact."
"Sooo… is that it? Because I can do this all day." The Arc said as he put away his sword, downing a conveniently placed beer bottle. His aura vented once more. He swayed a little, before turning to the regrouping white fang. "Alrighty then. If you all don't mind, I'm taking over operations." jaune smiled as the camera zoomed out from his eye, bringing him back into the modern day. "Well…. Shit."
"And then there was the heist." Perry said.
"I'm sorry, what? What heist did they pull off?" Winter asked, worried about breaking the law.
Orb just smiled and ate his popcorn.
"Hey, Mr. Orb?"
"Yes Penny?"
"How do you consume edibles like popcorn without a mouth? Or any apparent digestive system?"
Orb just shrugged in response. "I have no idea. I don't actually need to eat, but it feels good that I do eat."
"Ahhh. understandable."
"The heist?"
"Yeah. the heist. Probably the biggest in history. I still can't believe how well it went." Perry said as he shifted a little. Jaune focused, as though he was trying to remember something. The realization and horror dawned on his face as the camera went through his eye again. It showed Jaune, Trifa, Banesaw and Perry looking at a map of Vale. "so, you're telling me that this other faction is led by Torchwick and Taurus because they are the best, right?"
"Yes, Boss." Perry said, shifting nervously. Jaune gave him a level look. "My name ain't boss, Perry. Please, Call me by my name."
"Jay." Humphed Banesaw. "What are we doing?"
"We, my good friend, are going to one up Torchwick. And stop the breach you guys were planning. But mostly one upping Torchwick." Jaune laughed with mirth. "And because Torchwick stole a paladin-"
"We stole that paladin." Trifa grumbled, annoyed that their hard work was stolen by the human.
"Even though, Torchwick got credit for it, my darling Trifa." The spider faunus blushed at the flirt. "So, we need to outdo him. And I'm thinking we also take something from Atlas."
"Oh, like?" Trifa asked
"Their ship."
"You want to steal an airship?" Perry asked, astounded.
"No. I want to steal the big one." The blank and astounded looks that were given to him were ignored
A scene cut to Jaune and his white fang underneath the approaching Atlasian flagship. A small bar fight that would get out of hand would delay the good general for just enough for this go off well enough.
"No." Roman said definitely in disbelief at what was going to happen. Neo shook her head, not wanting to even think of what is going to happen.
"Is he really going to steal the Flagship?" Winter asked, not wanted to believe it was possible.
"Boss, you sure about this?" Perry asked the blonde next to him, both dressed in camo.
"Nope. Prep Grapple hooks!" Jaune ordered his troops. They shuffled their gear and prepped their launchers.
"Connect!" The grapple hooks were fired into the sky, catching onto the ship.
"Detonate EMP Package!" Jaune yelled as those that had fired the hooks flipped a switch, causing for the visible lights to go out on the battleship. "Ascend! Alpha, Bravo, let's go!" Jaune said, grabbing onto Trifa as she zipped up. A cut moved the docking squad as they hopped onto the roof. "Hey, Bud, you got the breaching equipment?" Jaune asked a dog faunus next to him. An affirmative nod hinted at yes. "Remember," Jaune said as he prepped the plasma cutter, "we got only about 10 minutes to breach, take over and dispose of the crew non lethally. Due to both my technical huntsman statis and the convoluted laws behind Ironwood bringing "unnecessary force" into Vale, we should legally be ok."
"Wait, really? He can just get away with this?" Ironwood asked in both shock and anger.
"Well, the Huntsman bit is arguable, but according to Valeian Law, "Any forign nation or power that enters the nation peacefully with an armed force must not exceed reasonable extent of said reason, lest they fall under Vale prosecution." Law B-47-H, Forign affairs. Beyond this, in law B-52 of Forign Affairs states "Any citizen of Vale that sees an active threat to the national security of Vale has full legal authority to engage with whatever force they deem necessary." although i doubt that anyone ever considered using these laws against you, due to your arrival being sanctioned by the Council." Ozpin said to his friend.
"Yes. the safety of the Tournament is important after all." Winter said for her superior smugly.
"Yes, but you were not in charge of the tournament security then. You were there to see the tournament, not to defend it. And almost a dozen battleships, including the Flagship, seems a bit overboard for personal protection." Goodwitch countered, glaring at the general.
The team dropped down into the minor panic of the crew. "We've been EMP'd! Someone get back up online!"
"We can't! Someone's disabled them as well! We're under attack! Intruders on the shi-" KLUNK. Jaune hit the soldier with his sheath knocking him out. "Alpha, Bravo, Move now! Eight minutes!" Jaune said, motioning forward.
"There's no way that a dozen people can overtake a full battleship in eight minutes." Winter scoffed.
"You thought it was impossible for Jaune to breach into a battle ship with less than a days worth of planning and preparation." Ren defended his leader. "Jaune has a knack for doing the impossible, so how would this be any different?"
Winter sputtered just a little, trying to poke a hole in his argument. She found none. So she opted to glare at him. Nora returned the glare at the specialist with equal measure.
Several scenes of the white fang played in sequence, from them marching to them taking out officers and crew members, often with tazers. The scene went to Jaune walking to the bridge like a badass, donning a specialist's white overcoat as he punched a specialist in the face, knocking him out. As he fell, he doffed the dude's coat and threw it over his shoulders.
"WHY THAT LITTLE SON OF A- Deep breath." Winter started, keeping her anger in check. The sheer disrespect that this Jaune showed was… hitting home rather hard.
"Heh, I like this kids style. Absolute madman." Qrow laughed, taking another swig.
Tai sighed, taking the flask away. "Don't give Yang any more encouragement." he sighed. Qrow pouted at him.
The sequence came to an end with Jaune sitting in the captain's office, Trifa sitting across from him. "You know, that went way easier than it should have." She said, smiling.
"I know, you think they would guard something like this better, right?" Jaune smiled as he poured the two of them a glass of wine. "Gotta say, they have got some damn good alcohol on board."
"Agreed, Captain." Trifa laughed as the door closed. The scene changed to the bridge. "Driver, whoever is steering, take us to Vale." Bud said.
"Uhh, issue."
"Yes?"
"I have no idea how to drive this thing."
"Dog damn it." Bud sighed. "Someone get the captain. I'm sure he knows how to drive this thing."
The scene cut to Bud walking through the hall to the recently closed door. Bud knocked, prompting for some shuffling. A very much shirtless Jaune opened it. He still wore the Specialist coat, but was shirtless underneath. A very, very flustered Trifa leaned on the desk, several buttons popped on her shirt.
Pyrrha turned both bright red at shirtless Jaune and rather pissed at the spider Faunus stealing her man. Even though Jaune was not yet her man.
Most of the women just had favorable reactions to shirtless Jaune. The extra training that Pyrrha was giving him was benefiting him in more ways than one. This created a rather lean and muscular huntsman out of the noodly blonde.
"Well, he's not a noodle any more, is he?" Yang smiled, elbowing her sister.
"Uhhh, Bud. Cans I help you?" Jaune said, slightly slurred.
"Uhhh…. I'll find someone else who can drive." the door closed.
"Well, that was annoying." Trifa grumpled, taking in another glass of wine. "Want to pick up where we left off?"
Jaune just smiled as he walked over to Trifa, pinning her on the desk.
Yang covered Ruby's eyes in anticpation for an erotic scene, Ruby just protested, trying to squirm her way out of her sisters grasp.
The scene cut to the battleship approaching Vale from the viewpoint of an air tower. "Uhh, Vale Airtower? This is the Battleship Yamato. Requesting permission to land at an open airspace." a voice came over the intercom.
"Battleship Yamato? Do you have FPC's or IDC's?" The unnamed Tower Man said to the battleship. The scene cut to Bud sweating, looking around. Turning to his superior, Jaune just shrugged. "Stall i guess. And someone find out what the damn a FPC or IDC is!"
Frantic searching went on in the battleship as Bud tried to stall. That all was brought to a halt with a large explosion rocked the center of Vale.
"That's our mark. Go, Go, Go! Ignore any intercepting fighters." Jaune commanded, looking at his crew. "All combative members, gear up and prep for breach." the scene shifted to Arc's Fang moving out, kitting themselves with military-like diligence. The battleship moved onwards towards the explosion, seeing the open breach.
"Prep for fire! Remember, no huntsman casualties, and lord forbid civilian casualties." Jaune commanded, leaning forward in his chair.
"Well, at least he makes a good commander." Goodwitch tried to look on the better side of her drunk student's antics.
"And he makes a damn good thief. He stole a battleship!" Roman laughed. Secretly though, he worried about what would happen if someone was indeed better than him. He was chosen by Cinder because he was the best, not because he was particularly loyal to her. Giving her a side eye, he typed something to Neo. let her prepare for a severance package. Just in case.
"Boss man, we're above the landing zone. Should we drop sir?" A White Fang member told Jaune.
"I join the men at the zone." jaune said, standing up. He kissed Trifa on the cheek, turning her bright, bright, bright red. "Trifa's in charge while i'm gone. Best of luck gentlemen and ladies." He said as he left, downing a swig from a wine bottle. "We will need it. Time to implement that landing strategy Ozpin taught."
"Landing strategy?" Sun asked, confused.
"Yeah. for initiation we were launched from a cliff into a grimm infested forest." Blake sighed, remembering what had happened.
"With your partner or team, right?" Neptune asked, trying to clarify.
"Hah! No. first person we made eye contact with was our partner. Teams were determined by trial by chess." Pyrrha supplemented, secretly glad. It helped ensure that she got her Jaune as a partner.
"Woah. man, your initiation was screwed up." Sun signed to the agreement of the beacon students.
The scene changed to Jaune in what looked like a locker room. "Alright, Drop Teams Alpha, Bravo, Ceta! Now is our time. Prove those bastards that they're wrong! That you are good people. Or just kill grimm. Whatever floats your boat." Jaune said as he walked over to the now open drop bay doors. A soldier tossed him a rifle from offscreen "Drop whenever you're ready. If you have aura, you'll be fine. Pack a chute anyway. See you boys on the other side." Jaune jumped out, much to the shock of everyone, on screen and not. Two faunus looked at each other in surprise
"Did he just jump without a parachute?"
"Yyyyyup."
"Damn".
"What is he doing? That's even worse than initiation." Wiess sighed, worried for the blonde dolt. "He's going to get himself killed."
"Ehh, he's survived worse." Ren shrugged, as though Jaune falling from hundreds of feet was a regular occurrence. Pyrrha turned to him in shock and horror. "What? What do you think we do during Guy's night?"
That got a look from all the students but Sun and Neptune. They were, after all, part of guys night
Jaune fell on a rather large Creep as the battleship opened fire. While bullets might not do much against paladins and heavily armored grimm, Battleship plasma fire sure as hell does. As Jaune waded through the grimm like water, his White Fang followed behind him. The back of his specialist jacket had the two crescents painted on in a blood red liquid. While most would assume it was blood, it in reality was wine.
As Arc's white fang pierced through, a familiar group of huntresess fought the grimm.
"There are too many of them!" Weiss yelled, freezing off a section of grimm.
"Oh, you don't say! Damn motherfucker! You want some too?" Yang yelled as she blew through the grimm horde.
"Easy yang." Blake warned her partner as Ruby rushed around, giving orders to her team. She did not see the Ursa come up behind her. "RUBY!" She turned, seeing the paw reach back to strike her down. A white shield blocked the downward strike.
"Hey Rubes. What's up?" Jaune smiled
"YEAHH! GO FEARLESS LEADER!" Nora yelled at his deus ex machina. Ren pulled her back down into the seat.
"Nora, please. Let the others enjoy the movie."
"Jaune! What is going on?! Why is there a battleship! The White Fang- Why are you wearing a coat?" Ruby asked all at once.
"Firstly, the Grimm breach in the city. Second and thirdly, Half the white fang and the battleship is under my command. Fourthly, I like the coat." Jaune said before finishing the wine bottle strapped to his belt, burying his sword in a creep next to him. RWBY just looked at the somewhat drunk blonde and proceeded to break the bottle over the Ursa's head, and then lodged the broken glass into its neck. "Whoo, this is fun!" Jaune swayed as he proceeded to sway though the grimm again, flanked by some white fang grunts.
"Is… is Jaune drunk?" Wiess asked, trying to comprehend just exactly what happened.
"He smells like uncle Qrow." Yang grumbled. "But with better alcohol."
In the aftermath, Arc's white fang was praised for working so well with the Atlas military, and for saving the day. And Jaune somehow bagged both Blake and Trifa in the afterparty.
The modern day Jaune was hitting his head on the desk. "Uhh, boss, you alright?"
"No. I am not. I think i'm going to take a nap."
"But the people outside-"
"They can wait a day. I'm sleeping my hangover off." Perry left the room in a hurry. Jaune rested his head on the desk. There was a thump sound as the door opened. Cinder and her two ever faithful lackeys at her side.
"You are a hard man to find, Mr. Arc. And you have ruined months, no, a year of planning. However, given your particular skill set-" Jaune got up, walking up to the pyromancer. He looked at a silver fillgiried pump shotgun. "Tell me, do you know who this belongs to?" Jaune asked, interrupting cinders recruitment speech.
"Uhh...no?"
"Neither do I," Jaune said, grabbing the firearm and swinging it at her head. The handle bashed into her head. "Die now, please" Cinder, too stunned to bring up her aura, took a whole two pumps of lead into the gut. "THE NEXT PERSON TO INTERRUPT MY DAMN NAP I WILL SHANK!" Jaune yelled as he closed the door in Emeralds and Cinders face.
"Ok, Jaune does not handle hangovers well. Like, at all." Yang noted
Cinder was shocked that she had died. "NOT Possible. I have the powers of a maiden. I am the most powerful person here. Absolutely not possible."
"That was… kind of amusing? I guess?" Mercury said, not really sure of what to think.
"No one ever said I was good at comedy." Orb said with a sigh. "Anyway, the next one is an initiation story."
"Initiation story?" Pyrrha asked, concerned.
"Yes, Ms. Nikos. Initiation is what I call an 'Origin point', or a point of where a vast amount of separate universes occur. I will probably show a lot of these."
