Void. Chaos. A swirling mass of energy and stuff that can't be described. It was so much but only for a brief second. Jaune had gazed into what he could only call a swirling abyss of energy and raw stuff… it was unlike anything he had seen before and it drained him. He didn't know how long he had been staring into that eternal void, yet it wasn't empty, it was brimming with energy. He couldn't make any sense of it.

Then suddenly something moved to gaze at him. He didn't understand what it was, he didn't want to, he couldn't even understand how he knew something gazed at him. It was just a feeling deep inside his soul, something else was there in that violent churning abyss of stuff. He couldn't help but almost feel lost before a sudden feeling of solid matter all around him, he gasped and shot up panting and covered in sweat. Gripping the sheets that covered him, the blond boy looked around and saw he was back at Beacon's infirmary… but how?

Thinking over everything from yesterday he gripped his head in pain groaning as he couldn't remember much after throwing a jar of sap at Cardin, before he heard a voice he dreaded say, "Please quit groaning and moaning. You are making it hard to sleep."

Looking over, Jaune saw Cardin looking over at him, the same angry look he almost always had but now he seemed to be a bit subdued if the bandages over his chest and shoulders said anything, "S-sorry."

"Just get some rest, Nurse Vess will be back soon." He continued to glare at the blond before flexing his still irritated hand before the door opened. As it did it revealed the black-haired necromancer who looked over the two before smiling saying "Good, you're awake. You gave us quite the scare there, Jaune."

Cardin simply huffed while Liliana walked over and began to look into Jaune's eyes as he asked, "What happened?"

"You two were attacked by an Ursa. Pyrrha, along with Weiss and Ruby, killed it after it single-handedly took you both out. At least that's what we have been able to understand. Now that you are awake, the headmaster will wish to speak with you both about what happened. But first, I'm sure you're both hungry, so I'll go get you some food." With a kind smile, Liliana walked out of the infirmary leaving the two boys alone.

Cardin turned back over and lifted the sheets over his shoulders as Jaune took a slow steadying breath as he looked at the clock and saw it was almost noon of the next day most likely. As he laid his head down, Jaune couldn't bring himself to close his eyes in fear of seeing that abyss again, so he simply laid there staring up at the ceiling. After a moment, Liliana returned with a tray and a red-headed guest following with another as she smiled brightly as Liliana walked over to Cardin saying, "Seems you have a visitor, Jaune."

He couldn't help but smile as Pyrrha set the food down next to him before wrapping him in a tight hug saying, "Don't scare me like that again!"

He cringed lightly before smiling and nodding saying, "Alright alright, I promise. An Arc never goes back on his word."

Smiling at the promise, she then glared over at Cardin who was turned away and eating as she took a breath. She refocused her attention on Jaune and said, "How do you feel?"

"Heh. Like I could eat a horse." His stomach then confirmed it as it let out a low grumble as Pyrrha nodded and handed him his tray as she sent out a text. Once he was finished the door slammed open revealing a smiling Nora who launched herself across the room shouting, "GOOD MORNING, FEARLESS LEADER!"

Before she could reach her target and possibly injure him further, she was slammed into the ground a foot away from the bed as Liliana held out her wand with a purple gravity crystal glowing at the tip saying, "Please don't tackle people in the infirmary, Miss Valkyrie."

"Yesh, ma'am." Said a muffled Nora as Liliana smiled and released the berserker as the rest of Jaune's team and Team RWBY appeared at the door with Ren saying sorry for Nora as the ginger hugged Jaune. Team RWBY all gave him their own congrats on waking, Ruby hugging his side as well with a smile, Weiss with a dismissive backhanded comment, Blake simply nodded, and Yang wrapped him in a headlock saying, "Welcome back, Vomit Boy."

He groaned before he began to chat back. After a moment, Liliana began to shoo everyone out of her office saying "Alright you two, the headmaster wants to see you both. So please get dressed and head to his tower. Don't kill each other on the way there, please."

Even if she was by far the nicest staff member her cold look promised swift retribution to anyone that tried to deny her requests. So, the two boys began to change. Cardin moved a bit slow, to keep his hand from being in pain. Eventually they both made their way to the large tower in silence. Cardin didn't acknowledge Jaune and Jaune simply trying to seem small. Once at the top of the tower, the two were greeted by Ozpin and Jace waiting for them as Ozpin smiled saying "Good to see you both in good health now. Come in, take a seat."

The old wizard gestured to the seats in front of his desk and the two team leaders followed his instructions as he continued saying "So, you have both been in the infirmary for a full day recovering. How do you both feel?"

The two boys looked a bit confused while Jace was intently focused on Jaune, probing his mind without making his presence known to investigate what Jaune has experienced. And seeing the hazy memories of the Blind Eternities and the presence. That was unsettling as the mind mage, barely registered what was being said as he began to do what he despised doing. He slowly and subtly erased the memories of the Blind Eternities from Jaune's mind and replaced it with a simple blank unconscious state that would be normal. As he withdrew from the mind of Jaune, Jace caught the tail end of the conversation as Ozpin said, "Hmm, so this incident was the fault of Mr. Winchester and yourself Mr. Arc. Is that correct?"

Both boys nodded as Cardin did so with an angry expression, opposed to being caught rather than apologetic like Jaune. The elderly man then nodded and said "Very well, you have both detention. Jaune Arc for one week, Cardin Winchester for two months."

"What?! How is that fair!?" Cardin shot up before wincing at his hand as Ozpin leveled an even glare. "Because Mr. Arc was the victim of your blackmail and bullying. We are well aware of every facet that occurs within these walls, Mr. Winchester. Think over that before you attempt such nonsense again. And Mr. Arc, you are an honest soul, but you should both know that Beacon is not easily tricked. I hope you both use the time in detention to reflect over your decisions and finally, Mr. Winchester, tell your team they have the same punishment, and if they request a reason tell them Professor Goodwitch will supply one on the first day of detention."

Both boys nodded as Cardin sat back down as Ozpin then said, "Good. You are both dismissed. I'm sure there is plenty you would like to speak to your teams about."

As he said that, both team leaders nodded before getting up and heading to the elevator as they left the two men alone. Ozpin then looked over to Jace and asked, "What did Jaune see?"

"He saw the place between places, he witnessed the Blind Eternities. But he did not fall through them luckily. I erased the memories. But I can confirm what Ajani told us, he is a planeswalker, his spark is ignited. So, what do we do now?" Jace looked over at the elder planeswalker who turned to gaze out the window saying, "We will watch over him and if he walks, we will help him return and teach him what he needs to know. But only if he does, until such a time as that we treat him as he was before."

Jace nodded in agreement saying, "I'll pass it along to the others."

Ozpin gave him a smile before sipping from his mug as Jace's eyes glowed and flared up bright blue as he sent psychic messages to each planeswalker explaining the situation.

-With Jaune-

He had watched Cardin walk off as soon as the elevator had opened on the ground floor. His team was waiting for the larger boy as Jaune saw his own team waiting as Pyrrha rushed up saying, "So what happened?"

"Well, I have detention for a week… and I'm sorry you guys, I am sorry for worrying you as much as I did. And here, I want to tell you guys the truth but in our room." They all looked at him worried but kept it hidden under relief that it was not anything terrible as they saw Team CRDL all fuming and almost crying.

Back in their dorm room, Jaune sat down on his bed as his friends sat on Pyrrha's bed as the redhead spoke first saying "So Jaune where do you want to begin?"

Jaune took a long slow breath before saying "I'm sorry you guys. I am sorry for being such a terrible leader this past month and a half. And I want to tell you guys why. Pyrrha already knows… I cheated my way into Beacon."

As he said that, he didn't look up and continued saying, "I found some fake transcripts and got myself here with no training at all. I understand if that upsets you all… You each earned your place here, so if you want to request a new team, I will understand."

As he kept his head down, he heard shuffling and shut his eyes as if ready for an impact before two soft yet strong arms wrapped around him. He opened his eyes and he saw turquoise ones looking back. A moment later, the smiling Nora head butted him hard causing Jaune to real back groaning as she said, "You big dummy, as if we could be on any team besides yours. You are our leader!"

She smiled at him as she was still kneeling in front of his bed as Ren rolled his eyes saying "It's very true Jaune. Sure, you snuck in and it's a little annoying you thought you could slide in without any training. But that doesn't mean we can't fix that. You can't get rid of Nora and I so easily."

Pyrrha walked over and wrapped her in a hug saying "They're both right, Jaune. You are still here without any training and you have made it this far! That speaks volumes of your potential, so we won't give up on you if you won't give up on us."

With each statement Jaune couldn't help but smile as he rubbed his nose before saying "Thank you guys. So much. Seriously"

Nora then jumped up saying, "Okay, let's celebrate the official return of the best team in Beacon!"

Jaune couldn't help but laugh as Ren was quickly dragged away to the kitchen. Pyrrha stood next to Jaune and started, "Um… Pyrrha. I know I rejected your offer before, but I could use some help with training… do you think you could help me?"

She smiled at him before saying, "Of course Jaune. Come on let's go and make sure Nora doesn't take all the syrup again."

Jaune quickly followed his partner out to the communal kitchens with a smile. The small party of pancakes and syrup was soon joined by Team RWBY with the enjoyment of all. Over the course of the next couple weeks, Jaune had owned up and told Team RWBY the truth as well, receiving some annoyance and a cold shoulder from Weiss for a week, Blake simply kept acting as she did quiet and reserved but gave him some respecting looks, Yang was a little miffed but promised to take it out and test him the next time they spared in class, while Ruby simply told him with a smile, "You are still you, Jaune, and that's what matters."

Throughout the couple of weeks Jaune received training and tutoring from Pyrrha, Ren, and surprisingly Blake from time to time. Throughout it all, he showed remarkable increase in ability. It was during one of the combat classes near the end of the second week since the Cardin incident when Ms. Goodwitch called Jaune and Yang down to the arena. Many whispers such as, "this will be boring," "Yang is the obvious winner," and "ten Lien on Arc lasting for thirty seconds or less," began to fill the stadium. Jaune heard some of them and began to sink before Pyrrha smiled and put a hand on his shoulder and told him, "You'll do fine."

Taking a breath, he nodded with a smile as he got up to meet Yang's eyes that gave him a challenge which he simply nodded with a smile before he moved to the locker rooms. Once back on the arena, Glynda held up her crop to quiet everyone as Jaune stood with his sword aimed over his shield in a defensive stance while Yang readied herself raising her arms as Glynda shouted, "Both combatants ready?!"

Both students simply nodded and then she called out "begin!"

And with that, Yang launched forward at Jaune but he didn't flinch. He stood his ground and lifted his shield to protect himself from Yang's right hook. Tilting his shield minorly, he deflected the massive force behind his fellow blonde's fist, causing her wild charge to throw herself to the side. Jaune then took advantage of it and he turned his body and slammed his sword into her side. Making a solid hit on Yang, Jaune then jumped back and returned to his ready stance. As Yang felt the blade bite into her Aura covered side, she grit her teeth before glaring at the boy as she got up and held up her fists before moving back in to begin a hail of furious blows that Jaune was able to block or deflect better than he ever could of earlier that month.

Glynda was surprised by the improvement Jaune showed compared to a month ago when he last faced Cardin, his defense was a bit more solid and he was more confident. Still not up to par with many other students but quickly getting there. To say many students were surprised would be an understatement, as some just watched shocked while others were mad the weakest student was actually showing he could stand up. Team JNPR and Team RWBY were all impressed with his growth even if several of them were responsible for it.

As the fight continued, Yang was getting more and more pissed. Sure she was landing many blows and taking out bits of Jaune's Aura, but it was only bits, how was she not tearing through his Aura?! She understood he had a lot, but this was insane.

Jaune, on the other hand, continued to try and hold his defense and try to counter when he could only to take a step back as Yang took those open moments better with her greater speed. In the heat of the fight, Jaune could feel a strange surge of power. His eyes began to glow a certain gold for a second as one particular strike hit Yang hard, taking a good bit of Aura. She retaliated harder as she got past his shield with a hard left hook and punched Jaune in the jaw, sending his Aura into the red while she was just above the yellow.

Both students were panting as the buzzer went off as Glynda called out, "Yang Xiao Long is the winner. Well done adapting to your opponent's defense, Miss Xiao Long. But you let your anger blind you to several easily avoidable counters."

As the teacher spoke, Yang took a breather nodding as she walked over and offered her hand to Jaune who accepted it before the teacher focused in on Jaune saying "Mr. Arc, you still have a lot of ground to cover, but your improvement is impressive, well done. But I would suggest you try to capitalize on opportunities presented to you, I noted several openings you could have taken advantage of."

Jaune couldn't help but beam at the small compliment before Yang slammed her palm into his back, knocking him off balance to her amusement. As that happens, Glynda began to project, "Now as you all know, the Vytal Festival is beginning very soon. So students from the other academies will be arriving soon. Be ready to welcome them, and do not slouch on your training. With that class is dismissed."

With that announcement, every student gained an excited look as Jaune smiled seeing his team excited as he went to change. He returned to his friends as they were headed towards the dining hall to eat as Weiss said, "What do you all say to going out to Vale and scouting any new students who arrive early?"

"Do you mean spying on them?" Yang smirked at the white-haired heiress who scoffed, "I mean nothing of the sort, should we be able to gauge their abilities early, I would not say no."

Rolling his eyes, Jaune smiled as he saw his own team thinking it over as Ruby smiled saying, "I say we do it! An outing to Vale for team building!"

Jaune chuckled at Ruby's enthusiasm as they arrived at the cafeteria. They sat down and enjoyed their meal. As they all ate, Jaune could feel eyes on him and noticed Professor Beleran looking directly at him before looking towards his food and Scroll. Shaking off the feeling, Jaune continued to eat and chat with his friends as Jace sent a text to the other planeswalkers. He said : he seems to not remember anything. However I don't know if he realizes it or not but he manifested a small white spell this afternoon, the remnants of the spell can be felt. Jace looked over at Jaune out of the corner of his eyes, wondering if he realizes what he did.

After dinner, everyone went to their dorms to relax for the rest of the night before Pyrrha and Jaune snuck out to their rooftop. Each night, Jaune would go up to meet a different person, Ren for Aura training, Blake for simple studying which she preferred to take him to the library instead of staying outside, and Pyrrha helped him in combat. So tonight, they both met each other there in full combat gear as Pyrrha spoke first saying, "Jaune I am so proud of you and how you did during your spar with Yang."

Her smile was beaming as he sighed and smiled easily in return saying, "Thanks, even if I lost."

"That doesn't matter. Do you have any idea how quickly you've grown in ability?! You did so much better than you could have at the beginning of the semester and we only started this training a few weeks ago. It's truly amazing." She smiled before it turned to a smirk saying, "Alright Jaune, get into position. I agree with Professor Goodwitch's assessment. We should work on your attacks."

He chuckled before getting into his stance as Pyrrha began drilling him on a few swings and began to have him repeat the formation. Stab, cross slash, reverse, repeat. This process of basic strikes continued for a while before Pyrrha then had him stop saying, "Alright Jaune. You know, how about we have a small spar?"

Jaune looked at her sweating a little bit from the continuous repetitions saying "Hah, you sure?"

She simply nodded and said, "Don't worry this isn't supposed to be anything hard, just an easy spar to cool off."

He couldn't help but roll his eyes before getting back into position saying, "Alright, whenever you're ready." Pyrrha smiled as she got into position before saying, "Here I come."

As she said that, she dashed forward swinging Milo in its short sword form towards Jaune. She did it in a very telegraphed way so he could defend easily, which he thankfully did. This continued with Jaune easily defending and delivering counters while Pyrrha kept herself held back just enough to give him a workout without harming him. Eventually she did begin to push herself and sped up incrementally so Jaune could keep up.

During one of their exchanges, neither of them were paying attention to their footing as Jaune decided to try something and charged full tilt with his shield in front of him. Pyrrha couldn't help but internally smirk at this as she met the shield charge to the side deflecting Jaune's charge, directly off the roof. Jaune didn't realize how bad the situation was until he didn't feel any roof under his foot as he fell. Pyrrha's eyes widened in horror as she saw Jaune begin to fall.

Even with a large amount of Aura, they had both been trading blows but even then, a head on collision with the ground from several stories up would kill anyone. Pyrrha rushed to the side and reached to grab at Jaune. Unfortunately, at the speed he was moving beforehand the inertia of his charge threw Jaune off the roof at an accelerated rate causing Pyrrha to just miss his leg as he called out in fear.

The world moved in slow motion for both of them, one moment they were having a friendly spar, Pyrrha was enjoying time with the boy she could easily call her true love and Jaune was having fun with his partner and friend. The next moment Jaune saw he was plummeting towards what would surely be his death. His heart hammered as he heard Pyrrha shriek in absolute horror, loud enough to wake anyone in Beacon, "JAAAAUNE!"

The blond boy felt the air rushing past him as he tried to correct himself in the air but saw the ground approaching far too fast so he gathered every bit of Aura he could in that moment. But doing so... he also began to draw on something else, it felt powerful and full of life, full of possibilities. He took hold of it and prayed to anyone that would listen to not die. As he made that prayer, his Aura collided with the ground throwing up a large dust cloud as a flash erupted from his body at the exact same moment as his Aura gave out but before he made contact with the ground and his world went white.

To Pyrrha, her world just shattered as she stared down at the dust cloud. Then the doors burst open as none other than Cardin Winchester walked out onto the area as his dorm was beneath the small clear roof area as he said, "The hell are you screaming about, Nikos? Hey where is Arc?"

He knew the blond continued to come to this roof for training before he saw Pyrrha get up and dash forward saying, "Hey!"

Pyrrha completely ignored the larger boy as she moved forward at breakneck speeds towards the bottom and in a panic. She searched for her Scroll only to realize that she had left it in the dorm room. With tears streaming down her cheeks, she moved as quickly as she could to the dorm room where she then slammed her fist against the door shouting, "REN! NORA!"

As the loud slams were heard Ren opened the door saying "Pyrrha, what's… what's wrong?"

He quickly focused himself on how distraught his teammate looked as she began to babble saying, "Jaune… Roof… Ground… Spar… Help…"

Ren slowly held her shoulders saying, "Pyrrha, calm down. What happened?"

As he said that, Team RWBY's dorm door opened to reveal an irritated Weiss, who shouted, "Will you all please be quiet!"

The angry heiress then saw Pyrrha who looked back with tears running down her face and in panic before she calmed down saying, "Pyrrha? Are you okay?"

Pyrrha then cried out before saying, "Jaune… He fell."

That sentence made Ren's blood run cold as he then said, "Go. I'll find Nurse Vess. Nora, go with Pyrrha."

Weiss stood there shocked as Pyrrha nodded and took off before Nora followed her with a determined look. Ren met the white-haired girl's eyes which she nodded saying, "Guys, wake up Jaune is in trouble."

Almost half an hour later, Pyrrha, Nora, and the recently arrived Ruby and Weiss were looking around frantically. At least Ruby and Pyrrha were frantic, for the fallen blond. Ren then arrived with Blake and Liliana in tow who had a worried expression. Yang also came with Professor Goodwitch who took command in an instant saying, "What happened?!"

Liliana looked around where they were and saw the collision site. White dirt and grass displaced as she joined Nora and Weiss while listening as Pyrrha was still crying, "Jaune… He fell. We were training and he fell. Please, we can't find his body!"

Liliana looked up at the roof as Glynda looked towards her before saying, "Miss Nikos, please calm down. What do you mean 'he fell'?"

Through sobs, Pyrrha finally collapsed to her knees as she said "Jaune," she sobbed. "And I were training on the roof. We do that often; it was going okay and then…" She then broke down again as she curled in on herself as Glynda could assume what happened before she looked towards the other students saying "Alright, everyone if his body is not here. He may have survived, search in pairs Liliana, stay with Miss Nikos. Partner pairings, we have a missing student. Go."

"Yes, ma'am." Was the response from them as each partner pairing went off as Liliana went to Pyrrha saying, "Pyrrha, tell me exactly what you saw."

Glynda went about looking over the area as Pyrrha continued, "H-he… I watched Jaune fall. He was thrown off with too much force from his charge. We were sparing and I didn't think he would fall. I should have paid more attention. Where is he…"

Liliana slowly wrapped her arm around the distraught girl as she then asked, "Did you see him… land?"

Her voice was trying to be kind, but it was clear this was not a situation that could be made any better as Pyrrha shook her head saying "N-no… I just saw the cloud of dust and a flash. I ran when I saw it…"

She began to cry again as Glynda looked around and grit her teeth thinking about how to tackle this situation and sent out an SOS to the staff with the message. "We have a missing and possibly injured student. Jaune Arc fell from the roof of the first years' dormitory. Body has not been found. All available staff, please come to my location."

She then turned on her location as she knew that many would respond quickly before turning to Pyrrha and Liliana saying "Miss Nikos, I know this is hard to do but I have to ask you, your team and Team RWBY to return to your dorms. I promise that all of Beacon's staff will put in effort to find Mr. Arc."

She looked down at the girl who stopped crying but was just looking around numbly as Glynda gave Liliana a look before the nurse nodded as she helped the red head up and guided her into the dormitory. Glynda then called in for the other teams to return, which unsurprisingly was met by opposition from a worried Ruby, a freaking out Nora, a stoic but worried Ren, and the rest of Team RWBY. They eventually agreed as they saw Nissa, Ajani, and Port coming to the area, letting the teachers begin a search as they spread out Nissa and Ajani both received a message from Liliana that said, "It's a first spark."


I kind of feel mean for doing that to Pyrrha, not terribly but I do. So now that this weirdness has happened, we will find out where Jaune ends up when we have, I'm going to say, a total of twenty votes on the location for Jaune's first Spark, I love writing this but I will put a pause to it for this. I will also say twenty votes in total. I have involved some people I know in person about this but there are still several extra votes needed before we continue.
