Accidental Villain 6

Pyrrha watched as Jaune stopped walking and fully tensed up, she could tell from the way his shoulders lifted up and then watched as he sighed; she hoped it wasn't in despair from hearing her voice, but just at the thought of all the misdeeds he has done.

And then he turned around and Pyrrha didn't even hold in her shocked gasp nor did she stop her hands from flying up to her mouth in disbelief at the sight of him; he was hunched over, his arms had a few cuts on them which was probably from all the shattered glass around the place, his lab coat had a few new tears in it, and he was holding his ribs as though in great pain. Then there was his face; it was still handsome, but now it was tired and pained, he had blood running from his nose and the beginnings of a black eye forming, but he still managed a shaky smile at her, eyes only briefly meeting hers before staring past her at the floor. She really didn't understand why he wouldn't meet her eyes for more than a second; he had beautiful eyes after all.

"Oh uh, h-hi Pyrrha, you do something different with your hair? It looks really nice." She watches as he stammers out, eyes running down her hair and then resuming the look on the floor with a wince as he grips harder at his side.

Pyrrha feels a large amount of concern rush through her all directed at the blond man in-front of her and then she looks around and sees the four people he has restrained, not an easy feat given who they were and the powers that they have, but he had still managed it even though it looks like it has cost him a great deal of pain.

'Yes I have washed it; you look like you haven't in about a week, what has happened to you Jaune?' Pyrrha thought as she gave the young man another look over, shaking her head of these thoughts she realised she had a job to do and then she could get him the help he needed.

"Hello again, and your handsome, seductive wiles will not work on me this time." Pyrrha doubted that anybody would be seduced by a man looking as beaten up as Jaune did; currently all she wanted to do was just brush his hair and tell him it was going to be alright.

Jaune sighed "I don't suppose we can talk this over? You know, uh preferably in a room with less people that want to hurt me?" he pleaded as he took a small step backwards and then leant on the bar to help keep himself up; he must be running on fumes right now. He probably has nothing left to give and realises the only way out is for him to talk and distract.

Cardin then chose that moment to interrupt as he yelled out at Jaune from where he was dangling "I WILL KILL YOU ARC! DO YOU HEAR ME? I WILLL TEAR YOU IN HALF!"

"CARDIN! We are heroes in training! We cannot threaten people like that, no matter who they are." Pyrrha cries out as she is appalled at the rage behind his words, he has never been the kindest, always aggressively flirting with her, saying how she needs a real man to look after her and now this? He had gone too far; nobody talked about Jau – about people like that! People, not just Jaune!

"You stay out of this hot stuff, once I've shown you what a real man is like then we can talk." He growled in what he probably thought was a sexy voice, maidens above it made her skin crawl and she felt sick in the back of her throat and pit of her stomach.

"Come on Cardin, at least show her a little respect, she is trying to be polite with me and you; which by the way thank you Pyrrha, I appreciate it."

Pyrrha blushes a little bit at the praise given to her and the way Jaune is saying them, with such honesty. The chivalrous nature of his words was a very nice change of pace from Cardin and his rude and brash nature.

"T-thank you, but you are still under arrest Jaune!" Pyrrha won't let herself be distracted by the kind and gentle tone of voice he was using.

Jaune slumps a little in his leaning position against the bar and sighs "I'm getting to old for this stuff." He mutters under his breath as he closes his eyes for a second, he probably shouldn't take his eyes off of Pyrrha as she was certainly dangerous enough to take him down right away, but at the moment he was just too tired.

"Jaune you are 23 years old, born February 23rd and while that does make you older than me as I was born on the 27th of September, it does not make you old in any sense."

Jaune opens his eyes and looks at her in confusion, before looking back down at the floor so as not to stare at her too much and weird her out, as he has probably said before; people never like it when he stares at them to long, Weiss certainly made her feelings known about it, as did Sarah, Melody and Satya.

"Uh thanks? Why do you know so much about me?"

"Knowing your birthday and age is so much about you?"

"It's more than anyone has bothered to learn before." A flash of pain went through Pyrrha, he looked so hopeful and yet at the same time so hurt, she just wished he would meet her eyes just once again.

"It is for my mission! Yes my mission, I need to know everything I can about you; knowing is half the battle after all." Certainly not because she wanted to learn about him for herself

While she was sitting in her room Pyrrha was going through the files she had on her laptop, these were the files that the government had sent over about Jaune Arc after she had requested the forms, her request was very quickly approved as the person she spoke to was apparently a fan of her when she competed in a tournament.

Currently she had a picture up that was taken probably while Jaune was still at Beacon University and was probably selected for the pamphlet; he was dressed in his lab coat, although it looked a lot cleaner back then. He had these cute ridiculous goggles on and they somehow managed to make his blue eyes even more beautiful and blue, he was holding a tube filled with a chemical liquid with a wide smile on his face. He looked so happy there in that moment with such a carefree smile on his handso-

NO BAD PYRRHA! That line of thinking is exactly what gets you so flustered when you are around him and makes you lose focus! This is just a picture of him.

A picture of him with a smile she had not seen on his features before, he actually looked happy here.

"WHAT'CHA DOING P-MONEY?" Yang yelled kicking open the door, Pyrrha very quickly zoomed out so that he was not the main focus of the picture and the 2 girls that she recognised as beauty students and fellow models wearing lab coats were, if she had to guess she would say that Jaune had set up everything for their photo shoot and he had just started doing his own experiment in the far background.

Yang then launched herself across the room when she saw Pyrrha frantically scrambling with her laptop and landed next to her on Pyrrha's bed and began leaning on her shoulder. "Oooooooohhhhh is this him? Well he certainly wears a suit very well doesn't he? And he is tall, dark and handsome as well."

"Ah! Yang! Well I was – that's not actually hi-"

Nora then chooses that moment to blast into the room and appear on her other side and snatch the laptop onto her lap, Pyrrha is left grasping at thin air. "No no no no no, come on Yang it is clearly the muscular guy right here, the one in the shorts and t-shirt holding the basketball. And Pyrrha you really need to lock the door if you are going to be looking at these types of photos, if you know what I mean."

Pyrrha grabbed the laptop back from Nora and placed it safely on her own lap. "Do you 2 not watch the news? He had blond hair."

"Well the only person with blond hair on this thing is that chick, and you are way out of her league Pyrrha." Nora points out.

"HEH I could pull Pyrrha if I wanted to pull Pyrrha!" Yang says angrily.

"Yang you can't even muster up the courage to pull Blake."

"Pot; kettle."

"… Well played Xaio-Long, well played."

Pyrrha chose that lull in the conversation to maybe try and escape her room and leave them behind so she could continue in peace, but Nora and Yang gripped her hard and forced her back down onto the bed and she gulped in silent fear, on the battle field she was strong, but this was a different arena entirely and she was completely outmatched and outnumbered.

"I notice you didn't respond to me Pyrrha; were you going to be doing naughty things to these photos?"

"NORA NO! it is not like that, I need to be better prepared for him for next time; so I am-"

"Stalking him?"

"-Learning what I can about him."

"So where is he, because he isn't here." Pyrrha then dragged her mouse back over the the section where he was and then zoomed in 3 times and the picture cleared up enough to allow him to be visible on the screen, Pyrrha felt the corners of her mouth try to tug upwards in a smile as she looked at him so happy.

"Oh, is that it?" and then her small smile turned into a frown at Yang's comment.

"Meh Ren is better looking."

"Seriously Pyrrha? Out of all the guys you could go for, and probably most of the girls as well, you choose the scrawny, geeky looking, not photogenic in the slightest, loner. Seriously? Are you looking at the same photo that we are?"

"I haven't chosen him-"

"Good because you can do so much better P-cereal, I mean I heard that Neptune is single, he's actually good looking and cool."

"Those aren't the main th-"

"Or we could set you up with Sage; he is really strong with his shockwaves and stuff, plus; muscles."

"I mean ultimately it is up to you Pyrrha." This came from Nora who looked over Jaune with indifference still.

"Oh yeah I get the whole each-to-their-own stuff, but come on and try telling me that this plain looking geek would be a better partner than a cool and up and coming hero like Neptune, I mean 2 Mistral sweethearts, your fans would love that." Yang made a compelling point; as if she was selling the relationship to a buyer.

Pyrrha shook her head, she had met both of them and she would much rather not be set up with Neptune, he was terribly arrogant and thought more about his own coolness than anybody else, meanwhile Sage was gay, so that wouldn't work out. She had seen him and Scarlet together around the back of Beacon University's hero hall.

"Yang please stop, okay I am here to learn what motivates him and what drives him, if I can figure that out how to catch him."

"Oooh let's look at his family." Nora cut in as she scrolled down, turns out his family history was near his birthday, which Pyrrha took note of as he was older than her.

"Very well; he was born and raised in Ansel, moved to Vale to attend Beacon University on a science scholarship and has since lived in Vale since he first attended the University. It also says here that his mum and dad are both heroes along with his – oh my."

"Wow that is a lot of sisters." Nora said to the side of her.

"Yeah and not a set of twins either." Yang responded as the 2 of them looked over the top of Pyrrha's head as her eyes were glued to the screen, the red rising in her cheeks slowly.

"So Pyrrha what were you saying about this seduction semblance?"

"Maybe this 'eyes of love' thing is hereditary huh?"

"And they all have the same mother as well, so maybe it's not just the eyes; it might be more of a-" Yang then choses that moment to lean in very close to Pyrrha's ear as Nora is struggling to contain her giggles. "-Physical thing."

"You did say that you wanted to learn everything about him Pyrrha; does that include an up close inspection of the goods?"

Pyrrha was currently as red as her hair and could not take her eyes off of the family picture of the Arc household, her somewhat distant mind subconsciously asking while Jaune was pushed off to the side and not looking properly at the camera.

A very red faced Pyrrha now stands in-front of Jaune, she hasn't moved or said anything for the last minute or so and Jaune was starting to get a little worried about her, stupid he realised as he had seen her lift a large metal beam off her body in an encounter that he had with her earlier in the week, he really hadn't meant to cut through the beam so suddenly or quickly, but it turns out that when combined with her semblance, metal was the wrong thing to use against her. It didn't matter about what type of metal it was, she could manipulate it with varying degrees of control.

However in the minute that Pyrrha had been getting really red in the face Jaune had formulated a truly mad plan, it might have been one of his worse ones and was surely going to end with him being even more bashed and bruised. On the other hand though, if he managed to pull it off he would be a genius and would have managed to escape from 5 different heroes all at the same time, which was something he could look back on and feel proud at knowing that nobody could say anything bad about him being a non-powered for a while.

Jaune had noticed that blondie and the Mohawk guy were starting to regain consciousness, meanwhile the blue haired dude was still out cold and stuck to the wall and Cardin was waving about as he twisted around in the air, shouting obscenities at Jaune.

Unfortunately the crazy mental plan did involve Cardin so he had to drop him from the anti-grav grenade and he landed with a solid thump on the floor, smashing through a drinks table on the way down. The other 2 guys also managed to get too their feet at the same time as Cardin did and they all started to surround Jaune and Pyrrha.

Luckily Pyrrha came to her senses and noticed that the 3 had surrounded her and Jaune and was eyeing each of them in turn with caution, the blonde guy then started splitting and creating his clones to block off exits and also surround them even more, while the Mohawk guy scraped his knifes together and Cardin smashed his good hand into the ground cracking the floor.

"I've got a bad feeling about this." Jaune muttered as he realised he had made a really stupid plan at that moment.

The Mohawk guy strikes first by throwing his knife quickly at Jaune hoping to grab him first, but Jaune watches as his knife is covered in a black glow and then sent flying out of the window just as he teleports after it out of the window all with a loud and girly scream coming from his lips, not that Jaune blames him after all.

A metal serving tray then flies along and wraps around Jaune's legs, binding them together making it so he cannot walk or run away, it also manages to knock him over and he groans as he hits the ground, a second tray then flies and wraps around his arms, still leaving his hands free which is good enough for him.

Jaune then watches as Pyrrha turns her hand still out stretched and pushes it towards Cardin who keeps running and punches a metal table in half and then she moves into a fighting stance. Jaune then watches as Pyrrha amazingly dances around Cardin with his wild swings and then kicks out at the back of his knees and along the underside of his arms and the sides of his ribs, she is striking at as many soft areas as she could to try and cause damage, whereas Cardin isn't able to actually touch her with any strike, and even when he get close to a metal object comes and smacks into him giving her the second to avoid the hit, or it blocks the hit altogether.

He then watches with amazement as she manages to throw Cardin over her shoulder with an awesome display of martial arts skill, Jaune is truly amazed. That's when he watches as the blonde guy forces all the clones back into him and runs at Pyrrha and then flying kicks her in the side of the head which she barely manages to avoid. The 2 of them then face off against each other in an intense staring match.

"You are outnumbered." He then splits into another clone. "We are 2, and You are no match for us."

Pyrrha rolls her shoulders. "You are mistaken."

Jaune is then witness to an amazing display of martial arts skill from the blond guy, he already knew that he could throw a punch, Jaune had felt that and his kicks were really something as well and watching the 2 of him go at it against Pyrrha it was clear that he was gaining the upper hand, it was just happening slowly, neither of them had landed a clean hit on each other and they were just trading blows. Pyrrha expertly fending off the clone and original, and the blond guy demonstrating how well he worked, 'wait he wasn't working in a team if it was just him was he?' Jaune thought to himself.

Slipping out his first ever invention, Jaune adjusted the dial on the side and a small green blade very quickly cut through the tray around his legs and then very carefully and awkwardly he managed to cut through the tray around his arms, he was about to make a run for it when he heard Cardin let out a yell of anger and watched as he jumped at Pyrrha and the blond guy and began swinging and stomping the ground as hard as he could, using his size and strength greatly to his advantage.

The blond was forced to retreat and make some distance and Pyrrha was doing some amazing agile moves to avoid the strikes, she even did a flawless backflip over a seat and then a cartwheel out the way of a section on the floor was thrown at her.

Jaune looked between them and then the door, it was right there and he could very easily leave the building and not look back.

He looked back and saw Pyrrha just about raise her arms in time and a metal table top took most of the blow but Cardin still broke through it and the force sent her skidding back and hitting one of the pillars in THE CLUB.

Jaune reach into his lab coat pocket and pulled out a device that he once saw in a great cartoon after the main hero had jumped through a car that was thrown at him and then used this awesome gadget, also the guy had no powers like Jaune so of course he wanted to make this thing.

'I hope this looks as cool as I think it will'

Activating his hard light shield, Jaune runs toward Cardin, ignoring the pains that shoot through his body. He watches as Pyrrha manages to kick him in the stomach and that makes him bend over a little bit and then Jaune jumps and slaps his hand down on to Cardin's shoulder as he vaults over him, aiming to land in-front of Pyrrha with his shield ready to defend the 2 of them.

The landing part doesn't go as smoothly.

Just as Jaune is thinking to himself that he pulled all of that off completely flawlessly, Cardin swings his arm with his broken hand and his elbow manages to smash into the shield and since Jaune doesn't have a solid footing his is sent flying back through the air smacking into the bar and over the top of it sprawling into a heap on the floor.

"JAUNE!" Pyrrha cries out in shock as she saw him get knocked away so powerfully, not knowing that his shield absorbed most of the blow from Cardin and also when he hit the bar, unfortunately not when he hit the floor on the other side though, however he wasn't going to miss this for anything as he wanted to see how well his invention performed in the field, so he forced himself to stand up behind the bar.

"H-hey Cardin, there is a table on the top floor that need cleaning; you mind?"

"What are you prattling on ab-" Just then he hears the beeping on his shoulder and looks down at it as it suddenly ignites.

"AAAAAHHHHHHH!" Cardin screams as the blast sends him flying through the air and through the ceiling.

Jaune winces slightly; 'note to self; first test successful, but need to lower power output so as not to send less durable people going through walls.'

Pyrrha stared at him in amazement as he leaned against the bar, while Jaune was clearly no match ion a physical sense he had once again proven that fighting was so much more as he had instead used his head and his advantage of technology against Cardin. She was about to make her way over to him to see if he was alright.

'And to catch him finally remember?'

And that

Pyrrha was stopped short however when a horde of Dove's, not the birds but the blond instead all surrounded her, fortunately for her, the more he created the more he had to stretch out his mind, as such they were slower and less powerful as when it was just him on his own. Unfortunately there were quite a lot of them so it would take her time to work through them all to finally get to Jaune.

As she parried a strike and jabbed across the jaw of one Done, she saw Jaune hold out his arm and point it towards her, and she could guess what was coming as she then forced the metal on her shoes to dig into the ground as she then crouched as well, the Doves around her were then sent flying away and her hair whipped around her as a massive concussive blast sent the clones flying across THE CLUB and into the original, taking him out of the fight. She was lucky that Ren had found out he had a bit of a glass jaw way back in Beacon.

She watched as Jaune then sprinted out the back exit and in to the alleyway that was behind THE CLUB, no doubt he was trying to make a quick get away, but Pyrrha simply wouldn't let him get away that quickly as she unclipped her shoes from the floor and charged out the door after him. She spotted him standing there straight as anything with his back to her and as she ran up to grab him she told herself to be careful of his injuries and simple went to grab his shoulder…

…only for her hand to pass through his body; It was another hologram.

Sighing out loud, she moved around to face the front of the image of Jaune and was rewarded with his eyes locking onto hers, she much would have preferred the real Jaune's eyes.

"How are you so quick with all of these?" she asked; anymore information she could learn would be good for future encounters, and because honestly she was really impressed with him.

"Uh well, bullies for the running I guess, and then study and practice; years of it – plus I know how it all works; I did make all of them after all."

"I will admit you outsmarted me yet again; you used team CRDL against me to fight for you and distract all of us from each other."

"Yeah all of that wasn't really intentional; I didn't think they would be there and didn't realise they were going to be so aggressive towards you."

"Towards me? You looked like they had been using you as a punching bag by the time I arrived."

"I'm used to it, I don't want anybody else to have to get used to it for me. Although it is very clear that you are really capable of handling yourself; you were so awesome! The way you threw Cardin, fought off the blond guy and the sent that Mohawk dude through the window, you really have a great deal of control of your Polarity."

"T-thank you Jaune." 'Focus Pyrrha we have heard these compliments a thousand times before' "But this doesn't change the fact that you destroyed most of a night club, fought 5 heroes in training and were resisting arrest throughout the whole thing, not to mention what has been happening since I started trying to capture you."

"I mean nobody got hurt; other than me it seems, and Cardin… but in hindsight is that really so bad? Also you are the only one that tried to arrest me, so I was technically only resisting arrest for the last bit. So I'm not that much of a criminal right?"

"No you are no simple criminal."

"T-thank you, you know that means a lot coming from you, I mean I got so worked up and really started to wonder if I was doing the right thing sometimes, and what side of the line I am on, but you… you are incredible, you have truly made my d – wait what do you mean 'simple'?"

Pyrrha took a breath, those words came from him so easily; but she had to see through his deception, she could not be distracted right now with how he spoke to her.

"Your actions and how easily you have managed to evade capture and how you have dealt with now 2 different teams of sidekicks as well as evading my capture constantly means that the news will have something to say about this."

"Well I guess there is no such thing as bad news or good news, just news; isn't that what they used to say?"

"They will label you a Villain."

"Oh… yep that's bad news."

"So I hope you are happy, your capture will now not just attract my attention, lots of sidekicks will want to capture you now, hoping to gain points with the public and their mentors, it is a sure fire way to pass the hero exam and become recognised by everyone."

Jaune chose this moment to think back onto what advice he can remember what he once heard his dad say to one of his sisters; 'you just need confidence.' He didn't hear the rest of it, but from that moment forward he tried to be more confident, whatever he could to make his dad notice him, turns out he needed a lot more confidence so he tried doing everything with extreme confidence.

Right now he was thinking of something really cool to say before he shut off the hologram and got in the last word with Pyrrha.

"Beautiful, but I doubt they will be as probably as you."

Silence followed.

Pyrrha processed what was said.

More silence followed.

"I'm sorry I don't understand."

Jaune face-palmed and the hologram unfortunately copied his movements and Pyrrha allowed a little giggle at how embarrassed he looked.

"I meant to say that the other way around. Never mind, bye Pyrrha." And then the hologram shut off and Pyrrha was left standing alone in the alleyway as the police finally arrived with the loud sirens, her face a little bit red at the beautiful comment, even if he had been so awkward about it.

Remnant 28 (D class variant, no timeline alteration and removal of subject 2018743: AKA Mercury Black)

Jaune lay back on his bed as he stared at the team JNPR dorm room ceiling, the third year was going pretty well for the team, they had a few missions under their belt and they even had a pretty intense survival training session in the forest with an instructor from Vacuo who took a vow of silence, lucky that Jaune and Nora both knew sign language; Jaune learned it for one of his older sisters and Nora so she could talk to the young woman that ran the orphanage in Vale, why she felt the need to dye her hair all those different colours Jaune did not know.

His train of thought was then interrupted by Nora jumping on her bed trying to get an answer out of Ren who was cleaning his guns. "Come on Renny; any super power in the whole of the world what would you have?"

"I see no reason to choose one, my semblance may not be powerful like yours, or Pyrrha's or Jaune's, yet I would not trade it for anything."

"Yeah but come onnnnnnnnnnnnnn; any power in the world!"

Pyrrha giggled behind her hand and Jaune turned his head to look at his partner as she was sat on her bed, she was currently going through some fan mail from some of her younger fans, something she insisted on doing personally and she was in the middle or replying to some as well. Once more Jaune had to look away, she was too beautiful and if he stared for too long she was going to feel creeped out by him, and he couldn't think about his best friend like that… not after everything she had done for him.

"Why don't you tell him what power you would have Nora?" Orm above her voice had grown even more angelic over the years; why was he ever interested in Weiss when Pyrrha was right there!? But he couldn't, why would she ever want the most average person ever?

"Oh yeah, see me; its tough because I really would love an explosive power; like the sweat on my palms could make explosives and the more I sweat the bigger the blasts-"

Very specific.

"-but aren't electric powers just the coolest! Being able to blast out bolts of lightning and shock people, like my own personal stun gun!"

"Mmm." Ren nodded in agreement as he cocked the weapon and looked down the small sight at Jaune's shield that was leaning against the wall.

"What would you have Pyrrha? Perhaps a love super power? One that makes men fall at your feet?" Nora said with an eyebrow wiggle as Pyrrha turned red and looked nervously at Jaune and then around the room.

'She doesn't need a super power for that.' Jaune thought as he sat up to properly join the team discussion.

"N-Nora!... I've always liked fire –or, or ice, one of those would be useful, or perhaps both."

"Like a half-an-half, fire on the left and ice on the right?"

"Yes that could work out, what about you Jaune?"

Jaune rubbed his chin and felt a few small hairs, almost time to shave again, he didn't think he suited the little goatee he grew last time before he went out and bought a new set of razors.

'Almost time to hide the razors again.' Pyrrha thought.

"If I had to choose, anything that would make me a stronger shield for you guys."

"Turning metal? Giving Pyrrha full control of your body?"

'Yes please' Thought Jaune

'yesyesyesyesyesyesyesyesyesyes' Thought Pyrrha

"Maybe more like my skin becomes as tough as I can make it." Nora nodded in understanding.

"Well come on Ren what you thinking then? Got a power you've wanted to have?"

Ren was quiet for a moment as he thought deeply, thinking back through the years to when he and his father had spotted that family of deer's on their foraging trip for the village, the 2 had sat there for a while just enjoying the view and the family sipping from the pond.

He smiled a Ren smile that the others all saw clearly, nobody else could see it though. "I've always wanted to speak to animals." He said quietly as the others all smiled back at him.

"That sounds-"

"Grand." Jaune and Nora said together as they joined Pyrrha in saying one of her favourite phrases, Ren didn't need to use his semblance to see the pink petals around the group.

Whats this?

An Alternate Universe?

My apologies; I thought Brian had those all under control, do not worry I will supervise over him to make sure they do not blend together.

No Neptunes were harmed in the making of this story, also I know absolutely nothing about Sage other than he was pretty easy to defeat in Amity Arena and that Scarlet was voiced by Gavin Free, that's it.

Hope people are enjoying this, when I wrote this it was the 5th of Jan and it tried to snow where I was for five minutes, didn't go so well so I spent most of the day looking at weather patterns to see if I would get snow anytime soon, no luck for me.

edit: its the 1st of July now, I've had this waiting for a while now.

even more of an edit: it is now the 17th of July and I am blown away for the support of this story; shout out to MM Browsing, always leave a detailed review and I love it, I haven't actually read any BNHA Manga, I'm just a filthy casual who loves the show and plays the mobile game. This is not to take away from anyone else reviewing as I appreciate it massively and it brings joy to my heart.

And to my audiences in any other language in English, I am sorry if any spelling mistakes I have made do not translate well in to your native language.
