Chapter 7: How to Live on Earth for Remnan Dummies
Teams RWBY and JNPR were enjoying their breakfast that Kelly's parents dished up before leaving for work. Jacob and the others decided that if the group Remnans are going to stay for a while they are going to half to tell them how living on Earth works.
"So, if you guys are going to stay on our planet, there are some things you need to know about it. so if you have any questions feel free to ask," Jacob said.
"Okay, so what are the huntsmen academies here like?" Ruby asked.
"We don't have huntsmen academies here," Ricky answered.
That got everyone to stop eating and stare at the Earthlings.
"Then how do you defend yourselves against the Grimm?" Pyrrha asked.
"We don't, because the Grimm doesn't exist on Earth," Allen said.
They were sitting there in shock after hearing this information, then Ren, Weiss, and Blake started to take notes.
"No Grimm? Then your world is at peace then?" Ruby asked with a hopeful smile.
Jacob, Allen, Kelly, and Ricky looked at each other then started to laughed like madmen.
"Nope," Jacob said.
"Not even close," Allen followed.
"Uh-uh," Kelly said.
"Some people may say we are at a time of peace, but that's a load of horse shit if you ask me," Ricky said.
"Earth has suffered a lot wars, including two world wars, or in your case two great wars, and today, we have terrorist groups killing people left and right all over the world," Allen explained.
"Earth went through two great wars?" Jaune asked wide eyed.
"Can't those who are qualified to fight with aura protect all the innocent lives out there?" Pyrrha asked?
"Sorry to disappoint you but Aura doesn't exist here as well," Jacob responded.
RWBY and JNPR stared at Jacob as if he grew a second head.
"No aura?!" Yang shouted.
"Yes and this makes Earth's conflicts more incredibly deadly and costly," Jacob stated.
"How does the faunus get along with the humans here?" Blake asked.
"Sorry Blake, but Faunus don't exist on Earth either," Kelly answered.
Blakes eyes widened. Hearing that faunus don't exist on earth made her feel like she was the last of her species on this world.
"So I guess you don't half to deal with racism or discrimination?" Blake asked with a lowered head.
"Racism does actually exist here on Earth. People discriminate against others over minor things like the color of one's skin. And although today racism of any kind is pretty much banned, it still exists out there today. Like one time when I was little, there was this white kid and his dad and then they just started jeering at me and my dad saying that our kind should be dead and all that and also called us a couple of-" Ricky mouth was quickly covered by Allen.
"Please Ricky. We do not want to hear that last part," he said.
"What was he gonna-" Ruby was interrupted by Jacob.
"Don't ask."
"But-"
"Ever."
The Remnans couldn't believe that racism exists here too, and over skin color of all things.
Blake couldn't help but pity and understand how Ricky must have felt.
"No faunus, no huntsmen academies, no aura, no Grimm, next thing you might tell me is that dust doesn't exist here either while you're at it," Weiss said.
"Uhhhh... you're not off on that actually," Jacob said.
"Wait, are you serious?!" Weiss yelled.
She cannot believe that even dust doesn't exist in this world either.
"Then how is everything powered here?!" she asked still in a state of shock.
"We originally relied on willpower alone, then later throughout history to today, we relied on other sources like gasoline, oil, sunlight, wind, the splitting of the atom, nuclear energy, and other stuff like that. We even used these fuels to travel into space and to our world's moon," Allen explained.
Weiss froze into place when hearing they traveled outside their own planet's atmosphere and to the moon. Yang started poking her and received no reaction.
"I think you just broke Weiss, but wow seriously?" Yang asked as she herself couldn't believe it.
"Yep," Ricky said bluntly.
"Now there are some rules you need to follow, so you need to listen up," Jacob said.
"First off, do not show off your aura or your semblance, never bring your weapons out in public."
"What? Why?" Ruby whined.
"Yeah, why," Nora asked.
"Sure you can carry some certain firearms as long as you have a license, but your weapons are abnormal to Earth's weaponry," Allen explained.
"Uhg," Ruby and Nora groaned.
"You are free to look up information on our computers, but please don't download anything," Kelly said.
"And if you have any questions, feel free to ask," Allen said.
"Are there anymore future events that we should know about?" Ruby asked.
"Oh, yeah. Thanks for the heads up," Kelly said as she ran up the stairs to her room.
"Where is she going?" Ren asked.
"I believe to get more information that's RWBY related," Allen said.
Kelly ran back downstairs with a laptop, some comic books and a book. She set the stuff on the table so everyone can see. The comic books were labeled 'RWBY' on them and the book's cover had an image of team CFVY on it with the book's title that read 'RWBY: After the Fall.'
"What is all this?" Nora asked.
"All of this is important information to read," Kelly said as she opened up her laptop.
"And as for this, the second episode of volume seven has just been released today and first was last week. And we'll watch the first and second episode with you." She then put Volume 7 on her screen and they all started to watch the first episode of Volume 7.
After watching episodes one and two of Volume 7, RWBY, JNPR, and Jacob and his friends all discussed the events on Volume 7 so far so that Professor Ozpin will know what Salem's next move is after the events of Haven Academy.
"Okay, lets go over what's happening," Allen said.
"We see the entire Atlesian military flying above cities Atlas and Mantle," Kelly said.
"Penny is rebuilt and given new upgrades. Yay!" Ruby cheered at the last part.
"A new character by the name Robyn Hill, is running into being in the Atlesian counsel," Jacob added.
"And let face it, Jacob, Kelly, Allen, and I all know that she's based on earth's legend, Robin Hood. I mean the name says it all basically," Ricky said.
"Ruby decides not to tell General Ironwood everything because his trust seems questionable right now," Jaune said.
"The General told Winter, Penny and those Ace Ops about Salem, the maidens, and the relics," Weiss added.
"Not to mention Watts and Tyrian are in Mantle," Blake also added.
"So we all know after Beacon and Haven, Atlas Academy is Salem's next target, then Shade Academy in Vacuo," Ren said.
"Where teams CVFY and SSSN are at," Nora added.
"And Salem herself will lead the attack with an army of Winged Beringels via Wizard of Oz," Allen said.
"That's a lot to take in," Pyrrah said.
"But still a lot useful now that we all know," Yang said.
"I guess once we get back we should be careful on what we should say," Ruby said.
"Yeah, Ruby's right. Because Ironwood can overreact and make hasty decisions," Allen said.
"So what now?" Yang asked.
"We wait for the other episodes to air and see what comes next. Until then find something to do I guess," Kelly said.
"Anyway what time is it?" Jacob asked.
"9:30," Allen answered.
"9:30?! Shit I gotta go! I'll see you guys later" Jacob said as he ran out the front door.
"What's up with him?" Nora asked.
"He's heading to church. He'll be back this afternoon," Ricky answered.
"So, what now?" Pyrrha asked.
