Chapter 1: I Bet You Look Good on the Dancefloor
Junior.
The owner of the most well-known club in Vale, that is named after himself. He is also one of the best informers around. His sources are unknown, but all you need to know is that he will most likely have the answers.
And one blond boy is his right-hand man. His name was Jaune Arc. He runs the bar in the club and does a pretty damn good job at it.
He wore a high-quality black tux and shades that hid his blue-eyes. His blond hair draped over his forehead and was messy.
The nights were usually busy with everyone either at the bar or on the dancefloor. But tonight, most people were dancing their hearts out. Fortunately for Jaune, he has his favorite customer keeping him company.
"Want a refill?" Jaune asked the green-haired girl sitting at the bar.
"If it's on you," The girl smirked as she winked her red-eyes at Jaune.
"Emerald, you know I can't do that," Jaune sighed.
"Oh c'mon Jaune," Emerald smiled as she leaned on the bar counter toward Jaune, "I think you need to loosen up. Want me to help with that~"
"Sorry," Jaune shook his head, "I am on my shift right now."
Emerald groaned as she just held out her glass for Jaune to refill.
"Want me to put it on your tab?" Jaune smirked as he refilled her drink.
"Just give me another glass of whatever I just had," Emerald grumbled as she took her glass and sipped it.
"Stop grumbling, mint-head!" A familiar voice called out.
"Don't be like that Mel," Another voice responded, "She probably had a busy day."
Both Jaune and Emerald's attention were then turned to the twin duo, Melanie and Miltia Malachite. The other henchmen for Junior.
Melanie wore a white outfit while Miltia wore the same one but was red instead. Melanie was much more outgoing while Miltia was much shyer and was a less commanding presence.
"Hey, you two," Jaune smiled.
"Hey Jaune," Both girls greeted.
"Ice cream isn't here today?" Miltia asked confused.
"She's working tonight," Emerald responded.
"Where's hot-stuff?"
"She's also working."
"How about, legs?"
Emerald opened her mouth as if she was going to say something but closed it. "I actually have no idea where she is," Emerald admitted.
"Oh welp, that sucks," Melanie stated but her mouth suddenly turned into a mischievous grin, "At least there's more Jaune for us~"
Miltia blushed at her sister's comment, while Emerald rolled her eyes at her friend's forward comments.
Jaune sighed once again. "Sorry you two but-"
"Hey, Jaune!" An older bearded man boisterously said as he appeared from behind Jaune, patting the blond boy's back.
Junior instantly realized his mistake once Jaune turned his head to stare down Junior. The twins started to get nervous.
If there is one thing you should never do to Jaune Arc. That is touching his suit with filthy hands. That just pisses him off.
Despite Jaune wearing sunglasses, Junior could feel the murder coming from his eyes.
"You washed your hands right?" Jaune growled.
"O-O-Of course!" Junior responded quickly.
Jaune planted his hands on the bar top and it looked like he was going to break it in half. That was until a hand landed on his. He looked up to see Emerald giving him a smug look that communicated, I thought you were on your shift?
Jaune took a deep breath and breathed out, "Good."
Junior sighed in relief. As he walked over to the other side of the bar where the Malachite twins were, who also both looked relieved that Jaune didn't explode. Emerald just kept her grin as she took a sip of her drink.
"Can I get a drink Jaune," Junior requested.
"The usual?"
"Actually, I think I will take some vodka," Junior answered, "It feels like one of those calm nights."
"You got it." Jaune then prepared a glass of vodka and slid it across the bar counter toward his boss.
Emerald then tapped on Jaune's hand once again getting his attention. "Do you still want me to loosen you up after your shift?" Emerald said in a sultry manner.
Jaune smiled and leaned into Emerald's ear. "If you can keep up with me," Jaune smirked.
"Is that a challenge?" Emerald smirked back.
"Don't forget about us two," Melanie winked as she pulled Miltia in with her arm.
"Mel!" The red-dressed teen pouted as she tried to escape her sister's grip.
Junior couldn't help but laugh at the girls' attachment to Jaune. 'That boy has a lot of fish to choose from," Junior humored himself.
Suddenly, the doors to the club swing open revealing a young girl with long beautiful hair that went down to her shoulders. The girl wore a biker jacket on top of a yellow tank top. Everyone in the club stopped to look at the newcomer in the bar.
But no one else was paying as close attention to her as Jaune. Something about her just told him she means trouble. He didn't quite want to beat the crap out of her just yet but he won't hesitate if she does so.
She gained a smirk as she approached the bar and looked at Jaune.
"Hey cutie," She greeted, "How about getting me a strawberry sunrise with one of those cute umbrella things."
Jaune nodded and got to work. He quickly served the glass to the mysterious girl.
"Aren't you a little young to be in a club?" Junior asked.
"Aren't you a little too old be named Junior?" The girl smirked.
This caused Jaune to chuckle. 'I remember when I asked him that,' Jaune said internally. He then thought back to that moment when he said that same response which caused Junior to smack the blond boy's head.
Let's just say that Junior spent that night in the hospital.
Junior smirked. "So what do you want, Sweetheart?"
"I want some answers," The girl answered, "And call me sir instead of sweetheart."
The blond girl then did something incredibly unpredictable. She grabbed the older man by the genitalia and squeezed. Junior let out a pitiful yell from the pain in his nether regions. This made everyone watching collectively cringe, while Jaune was trying to keep his laughter in.
"Tell me all you know about this woman and where I could find her," The girl then put up her scroll revealing a mature woman that had the blonde's features but the only difference was that the woman had red-eyes and black hair.
"I've never seen her before!" Junior gasped.
"What was that?" Yang asked forcefully.
"I have never seen her! Sir!" Junior said breathlessly, "Jaune! Help me!"
Jaune couldn't hold it in anymore, he started laughing his ass off. He might get fired but this was too good not to laugh at.
Maybe he could let Junior suffer just for a little bit mo- Actually skip that thought, Junior was starting to turn purple from his pain.
"Hey blonde!" Jaune yelled, "Despite the good show you put on for us, you need to let go before you make his blue balls a deeper shade!"
No one in the club laughed except for the girl, and Emerald.
"You need to persuade me first," The girl smirked.
"How about all your drinks are on the house?" Jaune smiled.
"Now, we're talking!" The girl shouted as she finally let go of Junior.
Junior started gasping for air as he glared at Jaune.
"What?" Jaune shrugged, "I did what you asked."
Junior just mumbled, "You're lucky I'm not firing you."
"Oh, c'mon Junior don't be like that we were only kidding around!" The girl said in a playful manner, "Do you want a kiss to make the boo-boo feel better?"
Jaune chuckled but was soon laughing again when Junior actually leaned in for a kiss.
The blond girl, like any other girl, would do in her position, sucker-punched the poor fool.
The bearded man was punched with such great force that he was thrown over the bar counter knocking over drinks and landed on the blond bartender.
When Jaune got back on his two feet he felt particular wetness on his body. He looked down to see an alcohol stain that was caused by the blond girl punching Junior over.
The stain completely ruined his suit that he loved so much and dearly.
And now it needs to be dry cleaned.
And in other words, Jaune was pissed.
"I think you have overstayed your welcome," Jaune growled as he put away his sunglasses.
Everyone in the club froze. And one common thought grazed through everyone's heads, "We should leave before this club gets leveled."
Jaune hopped over the bar counter and kicked the girl in the chest causing the wind to be knocked out of her. She was very surprised by how quick the blond boy was.
The girl quickly found her balance and got out yellow gauntlets that formed around her hands. She quickly jumped up and drove her fists down to where Jaune stood.
Her fist met the blond boy's face and he was slammed down onto the floor creating a small crater.
'That wasn't so hard,' The girl thought to herself triumphantly.
But that thought quickly slipped her mind as Jaune quickly got back on his feet and grabbed her arm. He then threw her over his shoulder into multiple tables and glasses of alcohol.
The girl was shocked by the quick reaction that followed her attack. She was also surprised by how much magnitude the move had. It was super powerful!
'What the hell was that?' The blond girl inquired to herself as she slowly rose from the shards of glass and wood from the table.
Jaune saw the girl hesitating to attack again. He decided that it was appropriate that he gave her a warning for what would happen if she were to continue this fight.
"Listen, blonde," Jaune said catching the attention of the girl, "You're not going to win, so I suggest you leave, Now."
Everyone in the room felt shivers down their spines as Jaune enunciated that last word. The girl was actually having second thoughts.
'Damn. He's scary!' The girl observed, 'But, I'm not done. I need answers!'
The girl cocked her gauntlets causing Jaune to sigh.
"And there goes your last chance," Jaune shook his head.
The girl then aimed her gauntlets at Jaune and fired. Luckily, Jaune had his aura protecting him from the shots. However, the bullets distracted him from the girl, who was running at him with her fist pulled back.
Despite her attempts, Jaune still saw the attack coming but stood his ground and waited. Soon the blonde got closer and closer until she was in a perfect position. A perfect position to get headbutted by someone. Jaune leaned back his head then jolted forward hitting his head with hers.
This caused the gauntlet wielding girl to be launched back hitting a wall and a couple of tables on the way. She slowly got up and saw strings of hair trailing from where she was now to her last position from the bartender.
'Did Jaune headbutt that girl so hard that some of her hair fell out?' Emerald asked herself as she watched the fight.
The girls lilac-eyes widen then squinted in anger as ber pupils turned into a deep red shade. Suddenly, a flaming aura surrounded her as she launched herself once more at Jaune.
The girl threw her fist toward Jaune's face who blocked it. This caused Jaune to smile.
'What the hell is he smiling at?' The girl asked herself.
Jaune then brought his fist back and quickly punched her chest throwing her forward toward the wall and shattering through it. His fists moved so quickly that if the girl's eyes couldn't register it. If she were to put her arms, they would have been severely damaged even with her aura at full.
Jaune quickly saw what he did and realized he might have overdone it. He walked over to the hole he had punched the girl through.
'Maybe I should start getting names of people before I beat them up,' Jaune thought to himself.
As he approached to where the girl was he saw she was laying there with small tears in her eyes. She saw Jaune approaching her and quickly tried to stand up and hide her tears. But she ended up tripping and landing knee first into the concrete of the streets.
'Crap, I definitely went too far,' Jaune scolded himself.
Jaune sighed as he put on his shades.
"You okay?" Jaune asked with a mixture of concern for the girl and disappointment towards his actions. He stuck out his hand and asked, "Need a hand?"
"Go away. I'm fine," The girl spat. She gained a hard look and glared at the blond boy.
No one in the club was really surprised that Jaune just punched a girl through a wall leading her outside. Everyone knew not to mess with him. This was quite mundane for everyone.
He hated that.
He hated that it was normal for him to just flip out. He hated that he was feared. He especially hates it when people try to act tough when they are in a very bad situation.
But there is a difference between being tough and acting tough. She just so happens to be acting tough.
And that annoyed Jaune. Luckily, not enough to make him lose his temper but it, in reality, it was just a small pet-peeve.
"Sorry about back there," Jaune apologized, "I kinda went a bit too far."
"Yeah, you think?" The girl said with an attitude.
"Um," Jaune looked back at the club and saw many tables broken glass all over the floor. And one huge hole in the wall. "Yeah, no...I definitely went overboard. So, do you want a hand or not?"
The girl took his hand and raised herself back up. She then started chuckling.
"What's so funny?" Jaune asked confused.
"I guess you could say we have one less wall between us!" The girl laughed out.
...
...
...
Jaune started chuckling.
...
...
...
Jaune then started laughing his ass off. "That joke was so dumb it was funny!" Jaune smiled.
At first, the girl was stunned that he was even laughing at all but soon both of them started happily expressing themselves.
When the laughter finally died down, the girl spoke. "My name's Yang by the way."
The blond boy took his shades off showing off his blue-eyes. "The name's Jaune Arc."
"Well, it's nice to meet you, cutie~," Yang said in a seductive manner.
"I could say the same, beautiful," The bartender flirted back.
"A-hem!"
Yang and Jaune then turned to Emerald standing there with her arms crossed.
"Jaune, I think we should go home now," Emerald suggested pointing at all the damage both of them caused.
Jaune scratched the back of his head. "Yeah. That's probably a good ide-"
Jaune was interrupted by sirens and a dozen men wearing police uniforms surrounding Jaune.
'Oh shit,' Jaune cursed, 'Not again! I might need to ask Roman for a bailout again! Neo is definitely gonna be pissed!'
"Put your hands up in the air! Jaune Arc!" A policeman commanded, "You too blonde!"
Yang looked shocked. "Me! What did I do?" Yang asked confused and outraged her eyes turning red.
Everyone looked at her with looks of disbelief. Jaune then pointed to the damage in the bar and how it was barely standing.
"Oh." And with that Yang put her hands up with a grumble.
Jaune only sighed as he did so. He then turned his head toward Emerald. "Tell Neo and the girls I'll be home a little late," Jaune requested quietly.
Emerald looked at him with a certain hesitance in her red-eyes. She then nodded as she suddenly disappeared in plain sight.
Jaune smirked as Yang and everyone else's jaws drop.
"Where did she go?" Yang asked confused.
Jaune shrugged. "Hey aren't we supposed to go to jail or something?"
/~/
Yang couldn't believe it! She was actually going to jail. Hopefully, Tai won't punish her too badly.
She exhaled and looked out the window of the police cruiser. The tall lights along the roads illuminated the streets and all of those who roam it.
She then looked down toward her handcuffs and observed how the chains rattled whenever her hands would move.
"So, your first time?"
Yang looked over to the blond boy in the car with her. Jaune was wearing his shades as he leaned on his hand.
"Yeah," Yang answered, "You?"
"I wish it was," Jaune stated, "I've been in jail so many times now, I lost count."
Yang raised her eyebrows in shock. "What did you do?" Yang asked.
Jaune smiled at her. "I think you know what I did," Jaune said, "I mean you experienced a usual reason for my arrests."
Yang started to chuckle. "Yeah, that makes sense," Yang smiled back, "Sorry about your suit."
Jaune stared down at the brown stain across his clothes. He then shook his head. "No, it's fine," Jaune assured, "It was my fault for acting so irrationally."
When Yang first came into that bar, it seemed that the blond bartender only good qualities were his looks and strength. But the more she's with him, she could honestly say that he was actually really nice.
She just has to stay on his good side.
"Wow! Such big words!" Yang grinned, "You really know how to make a lady feel special."
"Oh, I know," Jaune smirked, "Just ask my girlfriends."
...
...
...
"Yang, Why are you staring at me like that?"
"Wow."
"What?"
"You're a player."
"What!"
"Don't deny it you scary, sexy blond bastard!"
'Woah. Where did that come from?' Jaune asked himself.
'Woah! Where did that come from?' Yang asked herself the same thought as Jaune's, 'I mean he is pretty cute. And pretty scary. I'm not sure about the bastard part though.'
"I don't know whether I should be flattered or angry right now!" Jaune replied.
"I don't know either!" Yang replied back.
"Hey! You two! Stop bickering at each other!" The policeman in the passenger seat shouted, "You two need to get some couple therapy, sheesh."
Yang started to blush. "We're no-"
"Don't tell us to shut up," Jaune growled causing the man to gulp.
And to be honest, it scared Yang too.
Jaune then realized his mistake in threatening a man of the law and scaring a pretty young lady.
Pretty? Jaune looked over at Yang who noticed Jaune's eyes looking at her and winked at him. The lights from the outside shone through her hair. Her lilac-eyes reflected the streets. He also noticed her curvy figure and well-built stature.
'Yeah, pretty is a pretty good way to describe her,' Jaune smiled.
The blond girl's cheeks started to light up in red as she stared at Jaune with wide eyes.
"Crap," Jaune cursed, "I said that out loud, didn't I?"
/~/
Many things were going through Jaune's head right now as he sat at an empty table across from a mirror, that was obviously a one-way mirror.
But one thought prevailed from the others, How the hell is he going to explain all of this to his "Roommates".
As he tried to find ways to weasel his way out of that situation, the door swung open revealing a tall, lean man with white hair. He had a green scarf and glasses. His outfit mainly consisted of black. No, it was all black.
Soon another person followed him, it was a mature blond woman. She had green-eyes and glasses.
The man then took a seat while the woman stood beside him. Jaune was quite confused.
"So," The man said, "You're an Arc?"
Jaune raised an eyebrow. "Yeah?" Jaune answered.
"Was that an answer?" The man paused as he got a coffee mug out of nowhere and drank it. "Or a question."
Jaune scoffed. 'He's one of those,' Jaune humored himself.
"It's an answer," Jaune clarified.
"Ah, I see," The man hummed, "When was the last time you talked to a relative?"
Jaune gained a look of annoyance. "I talked to my sister yesterday," Jaune responded, "Just because I ran away it doesn't mean we are on bad terms."
The man nodded. "I'm assuming you don't know who I am."
"Am I supposed to know an old man like you?" Jaune asked.
"I suggest you watch your tone," The woman warned.
"Glynda, please," The man said attempting to defuse the situation.
Glynda was shocked by her acquaintance's response. But reluctantly stood back.
"Well, I don't expect everyone to know me," The man sighed, "Let me introduce myself, I am Ozpin. I am the headmaster of Beacon."
"Ok."
"Huh, I expected a more surprised reaction," Ozpin said.
"Do you want me to give you surprised then?" Jaune smirked.
Glynda started to subtly growl at the blond boy's response.
"No, it seems I have lost my touch," Ozpin chuckled.
"Alright. What do you want?" Jaune asked.
"I want you to join my school, Beacon," Ozpin answered.
Jaune gained a confused look. "Why?"
Ozpin then pulled out a tablet and switched it on displaying security cam footage of Jaune fighting a bunch of goons with brute strength.
"I think it is apparent," Ozpin pushes up his glasses, "That you have undeniably amazing power. You just need to refine it a tad."
Jaune raises an eyebrow. "So you want me to join your school because you see some potential in me?" Jaune asked.
"Of course," Ozpin nodded, "Despite your temper, I believe you would make a fine huntsman. So in other words, you should join my school."
"I'm not sure," Jaune sighed, "I need to think about my finances right no-"
"All your expenses will be paid, that includes a place to stay, food, and clothes," Ozpin said, "Your apartment will also be taken care of. Although, you still have to at least participate in the Initiation."
Jaune was stunned. Does this old guy really want me to join his school that bad?
He then remembered his family and how they always wanted the best for them. He remembered his conversation with his sister.
And how she would always pester him about how she believed that Jaune could truly become something more.
Jaune smiled at the memory and so without a second more, he accepted the offer.
Ozpin smiled as he got up. "Well, it seems we shall be seeing more of each other Mr. Arc," Ozpin then opened the door of the room to leave but stopped, "Also, all your charges of physical assault have been paid for. You will be released in the morning. Glynda will come and retrieve you first thing in the morning."
The blond woman looked absolutely shocked and pissed. She soon followed Ozpin and stormed out of the room.
And soon it was just Jaune. He was alone.
"I still have a phone call right?" Jaune asked himself out loud.
/~/
Emerald was patiently waiting for any news from Jaune. She was currently sitting on the couch of their apartment.
The apartment had two bedrooms, a bathroom with a shower and bathtub, a kitchen, and a great view of Vale.
A thousand thoughts shot through her head. How was Jaune going to get out this time? Why did he have to lose it tonight? He was doing so well! It was his longest streak of not flipping out! 3 days wasted!
...
...
...
'Now that I think about it,' Emerald thought, 'Maybe three days of no violence isn't so long for Jaune. But still! He was doing so good!'
"Hey Em, what are you doing?"
Emerald turned around and saw a grey-haired girl wearing a jacket and shorts. Her name was Marcy Black. She wore a black jacket and grey sweatpants.
"Waiting," Emerald stated.
"Waiting for what?" Marcy asked. But before Emerald could answer her Marcy opened her mouth again. "You're acting like Jaune went to jail again for kicking some serious ass."
...
...
...
"That was uncanny," Emerald responded.
"Wait a minute! I was right!? I missed Jaune kicking ass?!" Marcy exclaimed, "I can't believe it!"
Emerald sighed. "Where were you?" Emerald asked genuinely curious about her friend's absence from tonight's events.
Marcy's cheeks lit up as memories of reading her "graphic novel" filled her head. The "graphic novel" was called Knights of Affection and it was smut. In Emerald's words, "Sexual frustration all in one bargain." The worst part was that she wasn't wrong. Marcy would imagine herself as the female protagonist and Jaune as the dreamy knight that satisfied her.
"Marcy?" Emerald asked, "Are you ok?"
Luckily for Marcy, the front door of the apartment suddenly swung open. The two teens turned to see a dual-color haired girl in the doorway looking exhausted. She wore a white outfit and held her umbrella.
"God, Neo," Marcy said as she got a smirk, "You look like crap."
Neo jumped up and landed face-first into the couch that Emerald was sitting at. She then pulled out her hand and flipped off Marcy.
"Bad night?" Emerald asked.
Neo looked up revealing her heterochromia eyes and nodded.
"What happened, sweet tooth?" Marcy asked.
Neo then took out her scroll and typed out the following; "I went to the dentist and I have a cavity"
"That's it?" Emerald asked in disbelief, "I thought you had to work."
Neo then held out her scroll again.
"Going to the dentist is work," Marcy readout, "It's almost a chore and I hate it."
Emerald and Marcy soon started laughing at the small girl's comments.
Neo didn't appreciate it and started to pout. She stopped when she realized something.
She held out her scroll. "Where's Jaune?"
Emerald sighed. "He's in jail."
Neo's eyes widened and soon her face turned to one of annoyance.
"I can't believe it! I have to bail him out again!" Neo typed in irritation.
"You sure you don't want to nail him~" Marcy teased causing Emerald and Neo's cheeks to get heated.
The front door slammed open. The trio looked toward it and saw their boss, Cinder Fall. She wore her signature red dress and had her raven hair down to her shoulders.
It suddenly got really tense in the room. That was until Cinder sighed and pushed Neo off the couch causing the colorful girl to make a surprised yelp. Cinder then laid back on the couch.
"Rough day too?" Marcy asked.
"Don't get me started," Cinder said exhausted.
"Ok, if you don't want to talk about it then it's fi-"
"It all started with the dust heists," Cinder said causing the other girls to sigh internally. She then told them about how she and Roman attempted to rob a dust store. It would've gone well if it weren't for a particular red-hooded girl. That made her incredibly irritated.
"Wow, that sucks," Marcy commented.
Cinder sighed. "I just want to see Jaune right now," Cinder paused. "Where's Ja-"
"He's in jail," Marcy interrupted.
"WHAT! He's in jail again!" Cinder shouted as a deadly aura surrounded her, "Those damn pigs! Who the hell do they think they are? They're lucky Jaune is so nice and forgiving. And so strong. And so handsome~"
Cinder's rant was cut short by Emerald's scroll ringing. Everyone then got quiet as Emerald answered it and put into speaker mode.
"Hello?" Emerald greeted.
"Hey Em," a pleasantly-familiar voice greeted back, "Kept you waiting huh?"
"Damn right!" Marcy exclaimed, "You should've told us that you were going to kick some ass."
"Sorry, Marcy," Jaune chuckled, "Is Neo there?"
Neo then took the scroll and tapped on the microphone.
"I'll take that as a yes," Jaune's smile was heard.
"You forgetting about me?" Cinder spoke next.
"I would never forget you," Jaune responded.
"Don't try to weasel you're way out of this," Cinder said, "When Roman gets you out, we are having a talk."
"Oh," Jaune paused, "About that..."
The girls tensed up.
"I was given a proposition," Jaune explained, "And it involves me going to Beacon instead of staying here, so I took it."
"What!" The girls exclaimed collectively.
"Oh, why would you look at that! I ran out of time for my phone call! Bye!"
Emerald was having none of it. "I swear to Oum, if you hang up I will-"
Then an audible click was heard. Then silence.
"Well, it's decided," Cinder said catching the girls attention.
"We're going to Beacon."
A/N: Yeah I am made another story. Oof. Don't worry I'll work on JA:FMH but I don't want to do one thing and be bored. So this is the solution to that problem! Hopefully, you'll enjoy it! Please leave criticism for me to digest that would be very appreciated.
