Singing your problems away Chapter 14: HA I Still Live!, a rwby fanfic

I can't tell you guys how sorry I am for this late update once again. It's funny cause when I last updated this story I wanted to go to the movies. But what I didn't know at the time was that someone I know gave me Covid and I felt like crap. So I just laid on my bed and watched Fairy Tail all week. And cause of my asthma, it took the coughing a good amount of time for it to go. And then I played some Batman Arkham games to kill time. And then I wrote some more but it felt kinda rushed so I cut out somethings from this chapter. So I have the other chapter nearly half done...not including the prequel part. So I'm not going to give you a specific day cause I'm not jinxing myself. So just know that I haven't given up on this story cause I already have everything planned out for it.

And I want to thank those who reviewed and I wish you the best

0akarigan0: Gracias y no te preocupes por no poder dejar una reseña. Solo saber lo que piensas de este capítulo es suficiente. Y sí, quería que Nora hablara sobre el dolor de Jaune y los regañara. Sí, Ozpin finalmente tuvo una forma de derrotar a la bestia de la baliza ahora. Ya que Jaune no estaba en Beacon y no podía ayudarlo. Y lo de Fiona fue divertido de escribir, pero estaba planeando que Jaune estuviera con ella por primera vez. pero ella habría sido una stripper encubierta con todo su equipo. Lo que habría llevado a Jaune a emborracharse en Vale y cantar "Strip No More de Lukas Graham". Pero cambié de opinión por alguna razón. De todos modos, gracias por ser pacientes y espero que les guste este capítulo.

Onyx Gabriel: I know right, I wanted to do that scene but I was kinda thinking of doing it to Cinder. Later down the road in the story but something told me "Hey!, why not use that song and dance to calm the beast". And I asked my friends and they agreed with it so there it is

MatureLeech360: Thanks a lot for your patients and review. And yea it's fun looking for songs that actually fit in the story but a lot of the time it's hard finding some for a specific moment. And it sucks when I get recommendations for some songs that I love but they don't fit in his character or moment. And sometimes they are better for later chapters

adislt: Yea I kinda agree with you on that one. I kinda didn't feel the inspiration I felt writing the other ones. But I hope you like this one.

Benyx: Yes, I had planned this identity crisis since the beginning. And I got that idea from watching split. Which I'll be explaining a little bit in this chapter about Jaune, Johnny, Violet and two others

JauneArcwitch: Don't worry about the comments it's cool but I'm sorry to say but I couldn't find it tho. And thanks for reviews

Guest: I already have planned who he will end up with but I won't lie. He's going to sleep around with some of the people he knows.

PF115: This song is amazing and I think I found the perfect place for it in the story but it'll take some time to get there so bear with me

Jaune walks Jade into a small building with a sign that reads Music School. They walk through a hallway till they make it to a big room with many kids checking their instruments. "I'll be right back" Jade goes to her locker and gets her instrument. While she was doing that, many of the children kept staring at Jaune. He notices a group of girls whispering to each other. And one of the girls gave him and his sister a dirty look. Jade came back with something that made Jaune smile. "Look at my violin!, Grandpa got it for me on my seventh birthday" Jaune couldn't help but recognize the design. It looks just like his guitar in every way. But of course smaller "And it looks just like yours". She extended it to him to grab. Once he had it in his hand, he couldn't help but remember Jinx.

Flash Back

Johnny is sitting next to her, with her pale skin on display. With her small breasts free to roam. That captivating long straight black hair. And those lips that brought him so much joy. Painted with her infamous silver lipstick. Her dark grey eyes meeting his with that playful smile. "You know, if you keep staring at my eyes more then my breasts. I might think your gay" he just rolls his eyes. "I wouldn't think I'm gay since we fucked last night. And I'm more attracted to that ass" he said with a smug expression. He reaches for the table and grabs a crack pipe. But Jinx just slaps his hand away "I said after the lessons, Scars". She looks him up an down, seeing his upper body shirtless. Showing her his scars made by his kidnappers and himself. "Fine" he grabs a violin that is sitting next to him. He starts playing but he misses up at the end. "Why do I need to play this again?", "Because I say so, now play it again" Johnny puts it back to its original spot. "Nah I'm good" that frustrated her to some degree. But she got an idea that would make him do as she says.

"Fine" she got up from the sofa and walks away. But she knew what she was doing, walking slowly away. Swaying her hips while wearing small shorts that shows half of her ass. Johnny stares at it and couldn't help but blush. And seeing her metallic right leg with some scarring. Eventually she disappears when she went inside her room. He looks at her door and then the violin. He grabs it and gets ready to try again "Fucking Jinx an her ass-", "Is exactly what you'll get if you play it right this time!" She shouts behind her door. He looks at the door "Re-really?!", "Maybe as we're speaking, I'm reaching for a big bottle of lube!~". He didn't know how it happened but he somehow jumps on the couch and starts playing like his life depends on it. He didn't miss up once "That ass is mine tonight!" he finishes and looks at the door. "Come on open up!" and then he heard the clicking of the door. Which swings open and shows Jinx biting her lower lip and showing him the bottle. "That's my boy~" Johnny drops the violin onto the couch and jumps off it. He marches towards his reward. On the way he rips off his jeans and is only left with his boxers. He stops right in front of her. He looks down into her eyes "I came for my price~" he leans down. She wraps her arms around his neck "Then take it~" she pulls him for a kiss.

"JAUNE!" Jade shouts to get his attention. He shakes his head to get rid of those memories. "Sorry for that, I was just remembering how I learned to play" Jade tilts her head. "You know how to play the violin?!" Jaune couldn't help but pop his chest out and have this prideful expression. "Yea, I learned from a friend down in Vacuo", "Do you think you could teach me?" he looks at her. She puts both hands together and gives him her puppy dog eyes. "Fine, I'll teach you while I'm still here okay" he pats her head. She seems sad about the news of him not sticking around. He caught that and couldn't help but feel the same. He looks at the instrument and more memories of Jinx came to mind. "Hey Jade, do you want to hear a song I've written for the person who taught me to play" she looks up and nods. He gets ready and checks the strings. And then he starts to sing.

"I remember, I remember those days" he starts playing with his eyes closed and a small smile. Jade couldn't help but admire his skills. "Laughing out loud, staying up too late. Staring out the window whilst I see your face. I remember, I remember those days (I remember those days)" memories of Jaune and Jinx laying on their backs on the roof of the hotel. Seeing the stars and talking about their thoughts about music. "We had a little bit of time but it's never enough. Remember driving all night, we'd been talking 'bout love" him driving a car with her in the passenger seat. With Juliet sitting in the back with her scroll out. And Jinx grabbing his hand. "Now that you're gone the show is done. We had a little bit of time but it's never enough (no it's never enough)" some of Jade's classmates came over to see him play. "I remember, I remember those days. I remember, I remember those days. I remember, I remember those days. I remember those days" he moves around the classroom with such grace.

The kids are amazed by his movements and never missing a note. "I remember, I remember those eyes. You saw my heart with that lowly disguise" her seeing through his disguise as Violet and that cheerful attitude. "In your arms there's nothing to hide. I remember, I remember those eyes (I remember those eyes)" the first time they saw each other's scars. And accepting who they really are. "I remember, I remember those days. I remember, I remember those days. I remember, I remember those days. I remember those days" he finally opens his eyes to see everyone's eyes on him. So he puts on a show for them. His smile disappears and is replaced by a serious professional expression. While everyone is enjoying the performance, the girls from early had a disgusted expressions towards him. But he didn't notice it, because he is seeing his little sister's big smile. "I remember, I remember those days. I remember, I remember those days. I remember, I remember those days. I remember those days" he starts to slow down and looks at Jade. "I remember, I remember those days. Laughing out loud, staying up too late. (I remember those days)" once done he takes a bow.

The children start to cheer for his performance. He looks at them but his attention goes to someone who he feared to see again. Elisabeth, his first crush and the last person who saw him with his wings. Her blue eyes and that curly brown hair that reaches to her back. And that classy dress that didn't seem tight. Maybe that's one of the reason he fell for her. She respects herself and doesn't dress like many girls he knows. "ELISABETH!" Jade shouts and runs towards her. "Did you see how my brother played!" seeing her hugging her like that. And asking if she witnessed his performance. He couldn't help but feel nervous. "Yes, and it was lovely" hearing her voice made his heart skip a beat. Once their eyes made contact, he couldn't stop himself but blush. "And he was using your violin" Jade nods aggressively. "Yes!, he was amazing at it too. He played it like a pro" she eventually lets go and grabs her hand. And leads her towards him. All the students couldn't help but stare at how awkward they look. "H-hi Elisabeth" Jaune stutters while avoiding her eyes. "Jaune, can I speak with you outside?" he only nods. And starts walking away with her but Jade tried to follow them. But Elisabeth told her to stay and to get her notes.

Once outside in the hallway, Elisabeth didn't waste time. "I thought you left" he couldn't help but feel sad by that. "Yes but I-", "Please Jaune don't say it, please. I feel bad enough as it is. I respect you for coming back to see your family". She turns to the door where her students are at. "And I know that Jade deeply misses you" Jaune looks at the door too. "So does Joan and the rest of your sisters. But you being here...is going to ruin their lives. Everyone finally gave up on the hate towards them from protecting you". She looks at him for a brief moment "And I know about Jade trying to match us up...I've told her that it's not going to happen". "Yea I know, you didn't want to back then" his voice cracks. "I told you why I couldn't go with you to your trip with Violet" she told him. "Yea...Violet's" he couldn't handle the feelings in his chest so without saying a word. He starts leaving but not before hearing something that broke him. "You should leave as soon as you can Jaune...for their sake". He remains there for a bit, hearing her steps. Going back to her classroom.

He finally finds the strength to leave, when he heard the door close. When he makes it back to Max, who sees the state he's in. "What's wrong?", "Nothing just start the car *sniff*" he keeps looking at the window. "Jaune come on jus-", "Just start the car please...I can't be here". He turns the ignition on and starts to drive away "Where to?, we have two hours to kill before your meeting". "Airport" that answer confuses Max "What?". "I can't be here...I shouldn't have come back here", "No, I'm not taking you to the airport. For you to just run away Jaune, forget it". "Pull over" Max just kept driving "PULL OVER!". But he didn't stop "I'm not doing that, so get comfortable". Jaune opens the door and jumps out "JAUNE!" Max hits the brakes. He rolls on the road, thankfully no one was there. He starts to get up and Max got out of his car and went to him. "Are you okay?" he tried to check him but Jaune pushes him away. That action made Max angry. Seeing Jaune trying to limp away. "Are you seriously going to walk away from all this?" he waited for him to turn around and answer him. But Jaune just kept on walking "Are you really going to leave your family again!".

Still nothing "What about Jade?!" that seem to do the trick. "Are you going to put her through hell again?!" Max sees a chance for him to move forward. "I never told you this but Amethyst tracked me down at Atlas. After you disappeared from the face of Ramnant. She came into my house with Jade and the twins" he stands right behind him. "And when I saw them with red eyes from all the crying. Because their stupid brother just dropped everything. His career, family and me, just to get high with a bunch of celebrities. Every day and night, just getting high for the hell of it". He stops and couldn't say the next thing. Remembering the pain he went through after the call. But he needs to say it for both their sakes. "And getting a call from Juliet...to tell me that your in a comatose state" Max couldn't stop but remember how he was attached to machines. "And to think if I would have just canceled or even gone with you to Vacuo...none of that would have happened" he grabs Jaune and pulls him in for a hug.

"And to see you on that hospital bed with machines attached...it broke me man. And I couldn't muster any strength to tell your family" Max try's to tighten his hug. "So please don't make me tell them that you left them...please" Jaune grabs his arm. He waited for him to pull it away. "You should probably let go...if someone sees us like this...they might say your only marring my sister to get close to me~" but Max didn't. "Not if your still leaving", "I won't...I promise" Max slowly releases him. Jaune turns to him, still sad from what Elisabeth said to him. And everything Max reminded him. "Alright then, we should get something to eat before your appointment. And maybe you could tell me what happened back there" he agrees.

After one explanation later

Max parks and turns off the car and turns to Jaune who keeps looking at the dashboard. He remained like that for some time before he felt Max's hand on his shoulder. "If you want, I could go in with you" Jaune just shakes his head. "I'll be fine, just go pick up Jade from her class and go back home. I'll call you when I'm done" he opens the door and walks out before Max could say anything else. Max just kept looking at Jaune making his way to the building. Once he saw him going in, he starts the car and drove off. He grabs a ear piece from one of the cup holders. He puts it on and speed dials Amethyst. "Did you get him there in time?" She asked right away. "Yes, he told me to pick up Jade from music class", "Alright then, but Can you pick up two more people on your way here?". "Sure, where are they?", "They'll be at the airport in thirty minutes. You'll recognize them when you see them". "Okay I'll be there...I love you...Mrs. Jones?" he said in a playful manner. He heard her chuckle "I love you too Mr. D'Arc".

Jaune walks to the front desk and waits patiently for someone to show up. As he was waiting there, he couldn't help himself but remember the first time he was here.

He was sitting at one of the waiting chairs next to his father. Who had a natural expression while waiting for the doctor to call them in. "This is stupid" he said while leaning back with his hands stuffed inside his pockets. "This is for your own good" he told him without even looking at him. He just rolls his eyes at the response. "So your just going to force me to go to as many therapists. Till you get the results you want". He notices how Jonathan shifts in his seat and just kept looking at the door. "Why don't you just forget about me and go to the farm. And I'll wait out here for the therapist". Still nothing, "Or you could just send me to that boot camp and just hope-", "Be quiet". "Or what?, your going to yell at me and tell me that I'm always in the wrong. And force me to talk to strangers about my mental health till they realize I'm a lost cause". He saw that he was pushing the right buttons. Just to push him over the edge. "I told you to be-", "For fuck sakes!, just tell me your disappointed by me being born. And we can leave this dump and I don't have to see you for the whole day". Just as he saw him stand up, the door opens and Dr. Smith comes out. He has brown hair that is comb to his right side. And is wearing a blue sweater vest with brown cargo pants and brown shoes. But the most notable thing is the shades he's wearing "Mr. D'Arc" Jonathan grabs Jaune by his arm and pulls him up.

He snaps out of the memory when he hears a voice behind the desk. He looks and sees the secretary. After he told her that he has a appointment. She lead him to Dr. Smith's room. "Here's the door, the doctor is expecting you Mr. D'Arc" she told him. She left him alone, he couldn't help but feel nervous. But he eventually got the courage to open the door to see Dr. Smith sitting at his chair. "Welcome Mr. D'Arc, how has your retirement been treating you?" Jaune walked in and went straight for the chair. He stood in front of it and waited for Dr. Smith to give him permission to sit down. "It was good, till I returned" Smith gave him permission to sit down. "I know, I was surprised to see you dancing at a bar" Jaune flinches by that remark. "Cause last time we spoke. You said you were done singing for good" Jaune notices him looking for something on his scroll. "And imagine my surprise to see not only Violet. But Johnny coming back too" he shows a video of him last night. Jaune moves uncomfortable on his chair. "And if that wasn't it" he swipes the video and shows Jaune Saturday night. "F.A also made a comeback of his very own. And by how your singing and how open you are about your mental health. I only have one question Jaune". He puts away his scroll and looks Jaune dead in the eyes.

"Have you been using narcotics, again?" Jaune started to feel ashamed. "Yes" Smith starts to write something in his notes. "How long have you been using?", "Since Friday" Jaune felt more depressed now. "How many times have you been using since then?", "Twice, once in Friday and then on Saturday". "Have you been seeing things again" he looks up to see Jaune. He starts to nod "Yes, it's them again. They've been popping out when I'm emotional. But they have been acting up before the drugs". Smith keeps writing in his notes till he asked him a question that made him a little bit more depress. "Have you been in contact with Jinx or anybody from Vauco?", "Not since rehab, no" he starts scratching the armrests. "So whose the one you most see?", "The young me...but for some reason. He has these fresh scars" Smith wrote something else on his notes. After finishing with his notes, he placed them down on his lap. "Alright then, why don't you tell me everything"

Max made it to Jade and saw her outside with Elisabeth standing next to her. The first thing he notices is Jade's ruffled clothes and messy hair. He got out of the car quickly "What happened?" He kneels down to check on her. "She got in a fight with one of her classmates" Elisabeth told him. He kept looking for any kind of bruising but he found none. He then trained his eyes on Jade's "What happened". "Sonia said that Jaune shouldn't have come back from the shit-", "Language" she was interrupted by her teacher. Jade was getting angry by just nearly repeating what Sonia said. "It's fine-" Max told her while reaching for her hand. But Jade just moves away "No it's not fine!...it's not fair that they treat my brother like that!". She starts crying from the rage she was feeling. "He's not a murder!" Max grabs her gently and she try's to pull away. "I know Jade, your brother is a great man" that seems to calm her down. "I know he wouldn't do anything like that" he turns to Elisabeth whose been silent through this.

"How about you go to the car. And I'll talk to Elisabeth here about what happened" Jade wanted to stay and defend herself. But Max gave her a gentle smile which put her at ease. She gave a weak nod and walks to the car and enters the passenger seat. Max turns back to Elisabeth "You stayed quiet through that". "It's not my place to sa-", "Jaune told me what happened between you two this afternoon". That silenced her instantly "You need to put that aside. Cause what you and the rest of the town people are doing to him...is hurting his family. Especially Jade, she wants her brother back" he turns around to the car. "You all are the reason why he abandoned them. To protect them from all your hate" he walks away. Leaving Elisabeth alone with her thoughts. Once Max got in the car he looks at Jade who kept staring at Elisabeth who goes back inside the school. Max starts the car and drives away with Jade looking sad. He turns to see her and couldn't bear to see her like this. "Why don't we stop for some ice cream?" Jade just kept quiet. Max parks to the side of the road and turns off the car.

"Want to talk about it?" He looks at her and waits for her to say something. "Why can't they see he's not like that?" the tears started to come back. Max wanted to tell her to ignore them but he knew it wouldn't help. So he got an idea to distract her from what happened today. "Did you know that your brother has a photo of you inside his wallet?" she looks at him. "And before he goes on stage. He would look at it and have this big smile that brightens up everyone's hearts. When he walks up on that stage". He chuckles and remembers fondly of the times he would catch him doing that in his dressing room. "And right before he goes to sleep. He would call your mother and ask about you" she starts to wipe the tears away. "Or when he has free time. He would cook his famous strawberry heart jam cookies. And would tell me how you and him make them every Saturday night" she starts to smile. "And how much he loves his onesie that his baby sister got him for Christmas. He would walk around the apartment with it and sit on the couch and watch your videos with this joyous smile" he tries to mimic Jaune's smile. But he looks silly which made Jade giggle.

"So chin up, and remember" he waited for her to finish giggling. "Your brother loves you so much. That he doesn't care what other people think of him. Cause all he needs is you and your family" he starts the car and drives back to the road. "Now, about that ice cream?" he couldn't help but feel this joy when he saw Jade smiling. "Can you tell me more about my brother's time in his tour", "Sure" Max told her everything that her brother did for people at his concerts.

"That's a lot to take in Mr. Arc" Jaune just told Smith everything that happened to him since the last time they saw each other. Jaune lays back on the chair and nods while looking up to the fan on the ceiling. "Have you thought of telling your family about these...problems you've been having?". Jaune sighs and remembers how Jade acted last night when she confessed about knowing what happened. "No" he looks at him "I can't bring myself to hurt them. To show them that I'm still broken...I just can't do that to them...they deserve to be happy". Smith gives him a small nod "And is that why you never contacted them when you left the music business. To give them a life without you in it?". "Yes and no, I wanted to follow my dream to make Remnant a better place...and to live up to my legacy". Jaune couldn't stop himself but think of how big of a failure he is. "Even if I'm not worthy to do so" he leans forward to look down to the floor. "I've tried to be like my ancestors...but I'm not that skillful with the sword". "Didn't you say that your grandfather has been training you?" Smith has heard that Oro D'Arc. Is a skillful individual, he's the reason why no bandits dare come around here anymore.

"Yes but he's been teaching me hand to hand combat...and how to control my strength. That's it, he hasn't shown me how to use a weapon. Just how to knock someone's block off...and how not to". "Sorry what?", "I'm talking about my Faunus strength" Smith still kept looking at Jaune with a confuse expression. "You know, Faunus traits that make you abnormal" Smith just got more confuse. "Sorry but I don't understand. I thought you were born with wings", "Yes, which makes me a Faunus. So I was born with traits like abnormal strength, healing and the ability to see in the darkness". Smith wanted to say something else but he got a text message on his scroll. He ignores it and was about to ask Jaune about this deeply. But his scroll then starts to ring. He was about to turn it off. But once he saw the name on the caller ID. "Sorry Mr. Arc, but I need to take this" he got up and went outside. Jaune waits for ten minutes till Smith came back. "That was your grandfather asking if you made it here in time" Jaune was confused by this information. And he put it all together "She told them" he couldn't help but grip the armrests.

"Now Mr. Arc, we only have two hours before I have to go and pick up my son from his friend's house" he walks towards his desk. And stands in front of him. He grabs his shades "Are you ready" Jaune gives a nod of approval. Once he removes his shades, his eyes start to shine white. "Relax Mr. Arc and let go" Jaune starts to close his eyes and he falls back on the chair. Once that was done, Smith puts back his shades. "You can come in now", "Thanks Doc, I couldn't hold back anymore" a figure appears. Standing there was none other then Kane dressed in a brown overcoat. With a v-neck shirt that is red and his brown pants with black boots. "I wanted to see my little pet all grown up~" he goes over to Jaune who is unconscious. "It's been so long" he licks his lips and couldn't help but take a whiff of his hair. "Mr. Diablos please don't do anything to drastic. He might not hear or feel anything right now but he might wake up at any moment" Kane glares at him. Which made Smith to hold his breathe "Are you telling me what and what I can't do to my PET!".

"No sir" he whimpers, but Kane didn't stop from going to him and pulling out his favorite dagger. "You know what Doc?, I might just leave cause of your bad hospitality. And go back home and play with your kids and wife some more", "NO please don't hurt them...I beg you". Kane puts his dagger away and couldn't help but laugh at his pathetic begging. "Fine but I want you to give him this" he hands him a bottle with pills inside. "What are these?", "Those are something special that was given to me by my lord" he looks at Jaune. "And what does it do?", "It'll make things more interesting and more easier for me" his smile stretches. He moves Jaune's arm and drops it on his lap. He then sits on the armrest "So tell me, what's going on inside his head?". Smith pulls out a file "He's inside his subconscious as we speak right now. Which he altered into a mansion like his own home". He goes over to him and hands him the file. "At the age of fourteen we talked about his personality changing rapidly" Kane opens it and sees some names on it. "Who are these?", "Those are the names he gave them, his personalities" he looks over his shoulder. "That one is little Jaune, he is somewhat the past him in a way. He's known as the more rational one of the rest".

He then looks at the other one "And that's Johnny, he's basically the angry, stubborn one. But Jaune told me he's more prideful then anything" Kane recognizes the next one. "And that's Violet, he's exactly what he wanted to be in a way. Loved by many and bringing love, cheers and hope into people's lives. But the thing that makes him different from the rest is his lustful nature. When compared to Johnny, cause Little Jaune is still a child in a sense". "What's the Shadowy figure?" Kane looks at him. "To be honest with you I don't know. He appeared when...you kidnapped him. I think he subconsciously made him to keep him sane. Like a imaginary friend in a way", "That explains why I heard him talk to himself" he looks at the last one. "Fear?" Smith didn't want to talk about that one. But he couldn't hide it from him anyway "That's Jaune's...most dangerous one. He told me that he had to lock him up in one of the farthest room in his mind. And Johnny comes second on that dangerous list. After Jaune's time in Vacuo, he had to place Johnny in a prison just like Fear. He found out that somehow they both feed each other. They are powered by negative emotions. But Johnny is more rational then Fear". "Why does he call him Fear of all things?" Smith leaves back to his chair. "Cause he's the thing he fears of becoming" he takes a seat. Kane gets up from the armrest and throws the file back to him. "So what exactly are they?", "To some people it would be a personality disorder. But the thing about these individuals, they don't take over instantly. They slowly influence him and eventually take over".

Kane laughs at that statement and looks at Jaune one last time. "If that's true then I hope I get to meet Fear or Johnny soon" he turns to Smith. "Oh and Doc" he starts digging through his pocket. He pulls out a cheap scroll and leaves it on the table. "Here's your reward, you only get five minutes to talk to your family. And after your times up, the scroll will be useless" he walks out. Smith looks at the scroll and grabs it and holds it to his chest.

Max could be seen with Jade inside the airport with a sign that Jade wrote colorfully. It read "D'Arcs" and Max is holding it while looking at the doors and seeing many people walking out. "Who are we picking up?" She asked as she takes a spoon of strawberry ice cream. "I have no idea but your sister said I would recognize them" he told her. And then he spotted six people coming out from behind the rest. The first ones he notices is Timmy and Lizzie holding hands while looking around the airport. Mira was behind them with Winter Schnee next to her. And on the other side is Ren and Nora also holding hands. Nora kept looking around too before her eyes landed on Max who waves at them. "Ren look, it's Violet's agent!" she points at Max who starts to walk towards them. "So your the people I came to pick up" he looks at everyone and gives them a smile till he landed on Winter. His smile disappears "We meet again" both of them said in their heads. Memories of the moment they became enemies. They kept sending each other glares till Jade started to talk to Timmy and Lizzie. "Hi, my name is Jade D'Arc" she gave them a polite wave.

Timmy felt nervous and gave a small wave "H-hello". Lizzie held Pete tighter and started to feel this yucky feeling towards Jade. She unconsciously got closer to Timmy who started to blush. "LOOK RENNY!" Nora's outburst got everyone to look at her. "It's Jaune-Jaune's baby sister" Jade looks up at Nora and looks her over. "Who are you?" She asked her while moving onto Ren. "We're your brother's teammates" Ren answered her while letting go of Nora's hand. And kneeling down to her level "I'm Lie Ren, but my friends call me Ren". Nora leans on Ren and looks at Jade with a big smile. "And I'm Nora Valkyrie, Ren's partner and girlfriend!" Ren couldn't help but smile at her introduction. "Really, your Jaune's teammates?", "And friends!" Nora strikes a pose which made Jade smile even wider. She grabs her hand "You have to tell me everything about my brother during his stay at Beacon". Max couldn't help but smile when he saw Jade asking. He looks at his watch and sees that he has to go back for Jaune. "We have to leave now" he looks at Ren and Nora "You two are coming with us". He reaches for one of Nora's bags, but he starts to cough uncontrollably. He covers his mouth with his hand.

The coughing got worse which got many on goers to look at them. Once done he looks at his hand and sees blood stains. He pulls out a handkerchief and wipes it away. And trying to hide it from the rest. "Sorry about that", "Are you feeling okay?" Timmy was the one to ask. "Yes I'm fine" he straightens himself "Are you sure about that Master Jones?". "Alfred!" Jade was the one to shout. "Look Renny a real life butler!" She points at Alfred who couldn't help but chuckle a little. "And by your hyper behavior and the calm gentleman beside you. Your Master Jaune's friends". "How do you know that?!" Alfred just kept chuckling by Nora's behavior. "Master Jaune has spoken of you two very fondly" hearing that brought joy to their hearts. He then turns to Timmy and Lizzie "And you most be Timothy". "Y-yes" he always felt shy in front of new people. "Master Jaune has also spoken of you and your girlfriend" Timmy looks at Lizzie who is covering her face with Pete. Timmy follows suit too with his ears. This brought a chuckle to Max and Alfred. Nora couldn't help but squeal by how adorable they look. Winter felt the same way as Nora.

Alfred turns to Winter "And Miss. Schnee, thank you for accompanying them". He bows and Winter returns the formalities "Think none of it". Max's scroll rings, he picks up and it's Amethyst telling him that Jaune well be there for a while. "Is it Jaune?" Jade asks "No it's your sister, she says that we can start heading home". "But what about Jaune?" you could hear the sadness present in her voice. Max couldn't help but feel bad for her. And he honestly didn't know what to do but thankfully Alfred was there. "Jade" he kneels down and looks into Jade's eyes. "Jaune told me to give you this when I saw you" he grabs her hand and gives her a Pete the Rabbit key chain. It was losing its color and had some scratches. And one of the ears was gone. She looks at it and couldn't help but tear up from joy. She held it with both hands "He brought it back". Max looks at it and recognizes it "how did it get here" he turns to Alfred who couldn't stop and smile. "Well then, I will take our guests to the hotel. And you Master Jones will take Nora, Ren and Jade back to the beach mansion" they went their ways after that.

He opens his eyes to see his ceiling with the fan on. He sat up and looks around to see his old room. "It's been a long time hasn't it, Jaune?" He turns to see the shadowy figure right beside him. "Not long enough" he said while getting off the bed and making his way to the door. "I wouldn't go out there Jaune" he stops himself from opening the door. "He's loose again, and this time" Jaune glances at him. "It might just kill you", "I don't care" Jaune told him before opening the door. And walking out to be in a hallway. He looks both sides and makes his way to find one of them. As he was walking through the hall, he hears something walking behind him. But he recognizes the sound of wet feet on the wooden floor. "Hey Jaune" a child's voice said in a trembling way. He turns to see his younger self with freshly cuts that are slowly spilling blood. "Are you here cause of him again?" Jaune kneels down and looks at his eyes. So dull of life, love and happiness. "Maybe", "Then you can go back, Johnny and Violet helped to put him back" little Jaune told him. The Shadowy figure came out of Jaune's room "Or did you come here for something else?".

"Yes, I came to talk to you all" Jaune told them. He walks pass Little Jaune who then starts following him. They walked by so many photos that hang on the wall. Each one is of his family and him. But his face is cut or scratched out. "Are you mad at us?" Jaune just ignores his question. Which made his younger counterpart stop completely. "Do you really hate me that much?", "No...but it's hard to see you like that". He takes a left turn to see someone that made Little Jaune stop "Wait your not going to see him?!". He didn't even move to follow Jaune into the darkest part of the mansion. He walks in a hallway that has the walls with cuts everywhere and dried blood stains on the walls and floor. He stops in front of a iron door that has two iron bars in a small window. He gets close till a hand appears, stretching towards him. But Jaune just backs up and sees the hand. The hand has many large, small cuts, and the arm is no exception. "Come now Jaune, all I want is to feel your face~" the hand went back into the darkness.

Taking its place between the bars, is a sinister face. Riddled with scars and long blonde hair, but the most notable thing is his red eyes. "I missed you~" he pouts, but Jaune just keeps glaring. Instantly the pouting was gone and a twisted smile took its place. "Someone's angry" he said in a playful tone. "I thought Johnny was the silent angry one" he then puts his hand under his chin. In a thinking pose "But come to think of it, me and him are actually you aren't we?", "I'm nothing like you". And just like his appearance, he releases a sinister laugh. "Really now, how about when you tased Cardin's balls. Or when you nearly split that guys head wide open with that broken pipe" he leans farther out. "We could have done it you know. Split it with one FUCKING SWING!!!" all that rage disappears instantly. "*sigh* but Johnny had to come and ruin our little fun didn't he" Jaune couldn't help but let his anger slip up. "Just like when he nearly stopped us from showing Joan our fun games we had ba-" Jaune shoves his hands inside the window as best as he could.

And grips his neck as hard as he can "You don't get to say her name!". "Jaune!" he felt something wrapping around his waist. "Let him go, your better then him" he didn't care. "Don't listen to him, just go with the flow", "Shut it Fear, he's hurting you!". "LET HIM!" Jaune is blind by rage. But he hears something that put his anger frenzy into a holt. He starts hearing cracks on the door. And with that realization, Jaune let's go and backs away. With little Jaune letting him go too. Fear rubs his throat and couldn't help but chuckle. "So close" the door gain many cracks. "You almost let him out" Jaune looks down and sees little Jaune healed up and with new clothes. Fear focuses on him "Did you have to heal, I really liked the scars I made with you~". Jaune moves forward to cover him in a protective manner. "Don't give him hope Jaune. Cause once I'm out, I'll kill you. You little brat!". "We should go" he pulls Jaune's hoodie to leave.

"Don't ignore me brat!, once I get out of here. I'll gut you, that's a Arc's promise!". "Co-come o-on" little Jaune pulls harder, but Jaune wouldn't move. "And once I'm done killing you and the rest of these fuckers. I'm going to show everyone our fun little games". He backs away "and there's not going to be any interruptions. From you or that fucking idiot". "Let's go!" Little Jaune gave up on pulling and leaves. Jaune looks at the door one last time and decides to leave. After walking out of that hallway he goes to a door that is golden. And Little Jaune and the shadowy figure are next to him. "Can't we just call him?", "Sadly no, we have to go in and get him" Jaune told them. He opens it and is met by a faceless security guards. "I'm here to see Violet" he tells them and they open a second golden door. They walk inside to reveal a fancy club that is packed by many people he recognizes from his life. They go to the bar where Jaune helps little Jaune up to a stool. They turn to the stage where Jaunes dressed in white suits are getting ready to perform.

Music starts and many of the people turn to see them lined up. "Everybody, Rock your body, Everybody, Rock your body right" Jaunes move to the sides to reveal Violet standing there "Violet's back alright" he walks forward with the rest of the Jaunes following behind him. "Oh my God I'm back again. Brothers, sisters, everybody sing" he starts to dance with the other fake Jaunes. "I'm gonna bring the flavor show you how. I've gotta question for ya. Better answer now" he sang and then notices the shadowy figure , little Jaune sitting at the bar. But what got his attention was the real Jaune is with them. "Am I original? (yeah)" he looks at Jaune and couldn't help but give him this smug smile. "Am I the only one? (yeah)" he winks at him and then he looks at the table with team RWBY. "Am I sexual? (yeah)" he thrusts his hips towards the crowd. Some of the females start to shout his name. "Am I everything you need? You better rock you body now. Everybody, Rock your body, Everybody, Rock your body right. Violet's back alright, alright" he jumps on the table that is in front of him. He starts to hop table to table towards them.

He stops on a table and looks around at the crowd once more. "Now throw your hands up in the air. And wave 'em around like you just don't care. If you wanna party let me hear you yell" he places his hand to his ear and leans towards them. "'Cause I've got it goin' on again. Am I original? (yeah), Am I the only one? (yeah). Am I sexual? (yeah)" he rips his shirt open that made everyone to lose it. "Am I everything you need? You better rock you body now" Jaune was getting annoyed by this display so he starts to drink. While the Shadow starts to cover little Jaune's eyes. "Everybody, Rock your body, Everybody, Rock your body right. Violet's back alright, alright" the fake Jaunes kept performing while Violet starts to move towards the bar. But he was stopped by fans and some very questionable girls Jaune knows. Wearing very revealing clothing. "Everybody, Rock your body, Everybody, Rock your body right, Violet's back alright" eventually Violet finishes with them and walks towards them. But not before slapping Blake's ass which gained him a moan from her. "Everybody, Rock your body, Everybody,Rock your body right" he was standing next to them and raises his hands up and fireworks goes off on stage "Violet's back alright".

He kept his hands up, waiting for his guests to applaud but nothing happens. "Are you done?" Jaune was the one to ask him. "Are you serious right now, I gave you a performance of a life time...and all I get is "Are you done?"" he drops his hands and just rolls his eyes. And crosses his arms "What do you want?". "I came to get you and go over to the basement-", "You mean the prison for Johnny" Little Jaune said. Violet didn't like the idea but he knew that Jaune wouldn't take no for a answer.

Everyone kept on looking at the beach mansion with amazement. "Jaune-Jaune lives here!" Nora asked Max who was driving while Nora and Jade are in the back. With Ren sitting in the passenger seat. "Yes and no, this is Oro's beach mansion. And Jaune's house is a ranch outside the city". Once they got to the gates and Max spoke through the speaker. They started to go into the garage. They saw some of Oro's cars that he owns. Once he parked and helped Nora and Ren with their bags. They made it inside where some servants helps them to take their things to a guest room. Nora couldn't stop and look at all the furniture. "Those look expensive" Ren nods at that claim. "Yes they are" they turn to the stairs to see Oro walking towards them with a heartwarming smile. "You two must be my grandson's teammates" he reaches the bottom. "Oro D'Arc, at your service" he bows. "Your Jaune-Jaune's Grandpa!", "Nora" Ren told her. Hopefully for her to simmer down. But Oro couldn't help but laugh "I like this one, she has energy!". He looks at Jade who starts to shift uncomfortable.

Oro then gets serious "Jade, your teacher called". Nora and Ren turn to her. "Mr-" Max was silence by Oro raising his hand. "I don't want to hear from you. I want to hear from her what really happened". Jade looks into his eyes "Sonia and her friends started to say things about Jaun-". "I've heard enough" he stops her and goes to pick her up. "But-", "It's alright Jade, I understand now...and I want you to know that I'm proud of you for sticking up for your brother" Nora couldn't help but feel happy. To see Oro holding Jade and comforting her. "Now then, we have dinner waiting for us. And Silver made your favorite desert, Strawberry cheese cake" that seem to ignite her smile. He looks at his guests "Come now, Silver placed two more plates. And I want to hear all about my grandson's first day in Beacon" they all went to the dining room. All the Arc family, Beacon students and Professor Port are there. All seated at their seats, Nora kept looking at everyone.

"Miss. Valkyrie and Mr. Ren, why may I ask are you two doing here?" Peter asks his students. "I invited them of course" Oro told him. Two maids pulled out two chairs that are for them right Next to Coco. After they introduced themselves to the rest of the family. They started eating and talking. Many of the questions was about Jaune's stay at Beacon. "So my grandson is team leader" Oro is happy to hear that. "You bet, he's our fearless leader!" she happily shouts with her fork held high. "Speaking of which, where is Jaune?. We need to talk to him" Ren asks them. "I don't know" Jonathan said as he looks at his wife who shakes her head. "He's with Dr. Smith right now" Amethyst told them. Max turns to her "I thought we weren't going to tell them that". "Why didn't he tell us?" Joan was the one to ask. "Is everything alright?" Peter asked Oro who just kept eating. "Everything is fine-", "No it's not fine!" Jamie shouts at him. "You could have told us" Jane looks at Amethyst. "I wanted to, but grandpa wanted me to stay quiet about it", "Amethyst calm down" Max grabs her hand.

She looks into his eyes and she felt trapped by all this secrecy. She couldn't handle it, lying about Jaune's mental health and Max's own health. And seeing everyone in the room with their eyes on her. She hates all this attention, so she just shot right up and ran out the dining room. Max chases after her. Leaving everyone staring at their disappearing figures. Jonathan wants to go check on her. But Jasmine holds him by his hand. "Don't" he takes his seat and looks at his youngest daughters, not including Jade. Glaring at Oro who finishes his meal and holds out his plate. For one of the maids to take it to the kitchen to get clean. "Father?" Oro sighs and leans back on his chair. "Yes son?", "What have you been keeping from us?" Oro turns to his guests. "If you would please give us the room. I need to tell my family about a personal matter" Peter nods. "No way, if it involves our fearless leader then we're staying" Nora said. Oro looks at her and then at her partner who didn't budge. "Fine you two may stay" he looks at team CFVY who didn't move. Seeing Velvet's challenging gaze telling him she will not leave. And Coco and the rest backing her up. "I think Velvet has a right to know too" Jasmine said.

Oro just gives up "Fine, but this doesn't leave this room". But he did look at Jade who wanted to stay. "Chris could you take The little ones please" that didn't set well with her. But once she saw her father and mother giving her the look. She caves in and follows Chris out. Once he was sure they were far enough to continue this conversation. "I don't know if you know who Danny Dex is?" he waits for someone to respond. "Is he the criminal who was captured on Saturday?" Yatsu was the one to say. "Yes he is", "Why does this have to d-" Jonathan stops when he finally made the connections. Oro notices his expression and shakes his "It's not that". "What was not reported by his capture is the state he was found...he was beaten to a inch of his life. He was nearly unrecognizable if not for his tattoos. All they found was a shattered knife and a busted pipe...and a broken scroll...that belongs to Jaune". With that said, everyone who doesn't know of Jaune's past. Were confused, they know that Jaune's not the best in combat class. But his family knew what happened after witnessing his past aggressions.

Oro looks at Peter who actually knows what he's leading them to believe. After being thrown around by his student whose had the worst combat scores in Beacon history. "Are you saying that Mr. Arc was responsible for Danny's capture" all he gets is a nod. "Jaune-Jaune wouldn't do that. He wouldn't go that far!" Nora defends her leader. "I take it that Jaune hasn't told you his past here" Jonathan asks. "No" Ren was the one to answer him. Terra looks at her wife who was gripping her arm. Remembering when Jaune nearly killed that kidnapper who tried to take her for ransom. And her trying to talk down the sheriff from arresting Jaune on the spot. "What's wrong?" Terra puts her hand on her's. "Then I think Jaune should be the one to tell you about it. But once I got a call from Amethyst about this matter. I told her to keep quiet about it and that I would bribe the VPD to keep this a secret. So I spoke to her and told her to make a appointment for Jaune with Dr. Smith for the whole week".

"It's wrong what you did. Family is supposed to help one another. Not keep secrets from each other" Joan was the one to say. Oro looks at his granddaughter's eyes "And what would you have done then. Because I'm sorry to say this but your weak and there's nothing you could have done to protect him" for just a second. Peter and Jonathan saw Oro's pupils turn into slits. "We could have talked to him but as always. You try to keep us in the dark!" She yells at him. "Because I'm trying to protect him!" he puts his hands on the table. "Protect him from what?, all your doing is covering for him!" she does the same as him. Jonathan sees his father's nails grow and sharpen. "And don't think I don't know that you knew where he was those days he disappeared!" he starts to grow his fangs. "But oh no, let Jaune have all the freedom he wants and spend his fucking sweet time in Vacuo while we're worried for him!" that was the last straw. Oro stands up and that's when everyone notices he grew a little bit more. He looks down at Joan who didn't realize the changes, cause of her own rage. "You have no right to talk to me you spoil brat!" Coco didn't care.

She was about to defend Joan but she felt Velvet grab her. She turns to see Velvet frighten by Oro. She looks at Fox and sees the same thing. "You don't get to say anything after not saying anything about you catching him cutting himself!" the news of that made Jaune's friends even more concerned. Joan couldn't handle what she heard. She got up and left with tears. Coco looks at her and then glares at Oro who looks around. "SILVER GET THE LIMOUSINE READY!". Jasmine didn't like what was going on but Jonathan held her down. She looks at him and saw fear in his eyes. "I will be staying at the hotel's penthouse. Don't contact me for the rest of the day" and that's when he leaves. Coco was about to get up and go check on Joan. "Nobody moves!" Jonathan said with a shaky voice. "The hell with that" Coco didn't care. "Miss Adel seat down right now!" Peter shouts at his student. This seem to do the job. In all her time at Beacon, she and her team have never seen Professor Port yell at a student before.

Jaune and the rest of them came to a door that leads to the basement. Where Johnny is locked up. The door was filled with stickers that read. Do not open or don't let him out. Jaune reaches for the door but it starts to shake like someone is pounding on it, on the other side. He recoils back and Violet just rolls his eyes. He pushes right through them and grabs the doorknob "Let's get this over with". He opens it and goes first. Jaune turns to the rest and gets shrugs from them. Jaune starts to go in and noticed the stairs that lead down to the basement. The farther he went, music could be heard. When they reached the bottom they saw people cheering to the band that was on stage. The first thing to notice is that everyone there is a person that Jaune has met in Vacuo. And the band on stage was just Johnny and the rest are Jaunes with different clothing. Violet found a dirty wooden table at the back. Which he took a seat there, waiting for the rest to join him. Johnny notices them and stops playing his guitar. "If it isn't the big man himself" he said to himself.

He leans forward to the mic "This is a special song for the Fuckers in the back!". Everyone turns to them, but they went back to Johnny when he starts to play. "Keep you in the dark. You know they all, pretend. Keep you in the dark and so it all, began" he starts to nod with the drummer's beat. He goes back to the mic "Send in your skeletons. Sing as their bones go marching in, again. They need you buried deep. The secrets that you keep are ever ready, are you ready?" He lets go of his guitar, which kept playing by itself. He pulls off the mic and steps off the stage. Everyone makes room for him to pass through. He starts walking through them while singing. "I'm finished making sense. Done pleading ignorance, that old, defense. Spinning infinity boy the wheel is spinning me. It's never-ending, never-ending, Same old story" he makes it to their table. "What if I say I'm not like the others? What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays You're the pretender" he slams his free hand on the table. Which made little Jaune to flinch while the rest didn't. "What if I say I will never surrender? What if I say I'm not like the others? What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays? You're the pretender" he starts to walk around them. "What if I say that I never surrender?" He kicks Violet's chair which didn't go unnoticed by everyone at the table. "In time, or so I'm told, I'm just another soul for sale, oh well" this time he kicks the shadowy figures chair.

"The page is out of print. We are not permanent. We're temporary, temporary, Same old story" then little Jaune's chair too which made him to crawl up into a ball. "What if I say I'm not like the others? What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays You're the pretender. What if I say I will never surrender? What if I say I'm not like the others What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays? You're the pretender. What if I say I will never surrender?" He stands behind Jaune and leans down to whisper in his ear. "I'm the voice inside your head you refuse to hear" Jaune's hands start to shake. "I'm the face that you have to face mirrorin' your stare. I'm what's left; I'm what's right; I'm the enemy. I'm the hand that'll take you down and bring you to your knees" he wipes out a gun that made Jaune hold his breath. "So, who are you?" He points at little Jaune "Yeah, who are you?" Then at Violet "Yeah, who are you?" The shadowy figure "Yeah, who are you?" And finally he puts the barrel to the side of Jaune's head. He kept the gun there for a while "Keep you in the dark. You know they all pretend" he looks over at the rest of them. "What if I say I'm not like the others?" Then the gun disappears.

Johnny then slowly walks around the table again "What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays? You're the pretender. What if I say I will never surrender? What if I say I'm not like the others? What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays? You're the pretender, What if I say that I'll never surrender? What if I say I'm not like the others?" One of the Jaunes on the stage started to sing with the one circling around them "(Keep you in the dark) What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays? (You know they all) You're the pretender (Pretend) What if I say I will never surrender? What if I say I'm not like the others? (Keep you in the dark) What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays? (You know they all) You're the pretender (Pretend) What if I say I will never surrender?". A chair was pulled towards Johnny by a girl who Jaune recognizes "Jinx" he whispers to himself. "So, who are you?" he looks at Little Jaune "Yeah, who are you?". He then looks at the shadowy figure "Yeah, who are you?" then at Violet. He then took his seat and kept on looking at Jaune. With the girl putting her hands on Johnny's shoulders.

Everyone applauds for him and that's when Johnny snaps his fingers and everyone disappears instantly. Only them six alone at the table. "So what brings you four in my prison?" he notices Jaune's eyes never left Jinx. that used to meet his every morning at Vacuo. Her mischievous smile that told you everything you were getting into. "What's wrong Jaune...are you regretting-", "Shut up" Johnny didn't like to be interrupted. "C-can we just talk without fighting...please" little Jaune was pleading. "Yes please, I want to leave this dump", "Oh I'm sorry your highness. Didn't know you have somewhere better to be". Johnny told him while flipping him off which made Violet to stand up. "That's it I'm going back to my room" he starts walking away. "Good!, cause this meeting is for only real Jaunes. Not a fake with long pussy hair that's stuck in its period!" those words made him stop. "You want to say that again" Violet turns back. "You fucking heard me, bitch", "Guys stop!" Little Jaune hates it when they fight.

But Johnny stands up which made Jinx disappear and Violet starts to go back. But Jaune grabs him by his wrist before he could reach him "That's enough, I want to get this over with". Johnny takes his seat "Fine, but just cause I want the freak and ginger gone". The Shadow figure remains still but Violet pulls his wrist away from Jaune. "I'm done here, I'm going back to my room" this time Jaune didn't argue. He let him go, cause he wants to get this over with. Once he heard the door close behind Violet's back. Johnny looks at the shadow "Don't you have somewhere to be?". But he didn't answer him "Alright then" Johnny snaps his fingers again. And the Shadowy Figure disappears. "What did you do?" Little Jaune asks "I just kicked him out. I can do anything here but leave". He looks at Jaune "Only when I'm needed". He leans back and Jinx appears again and starts to massage his shoulders. "Like a fucking weapon that gets put away", "Maybe if you weren't the reason for all-". He points at him "Don't you dare put the blame on me!. I wasn't the one who wanted to kill-", "Enough!" Little Jaune shouts for them to stop.

Johnny turns to him and makes him disappear like the shadowy figure. "I will not be interrupted!" he glares at Jaune. "Me and Fear being locked up is fine by me but I will not be disrespected in my prison". Jaune looks around at the empty chairs "It took me time to bring them here". Johnny gets comfortable again and pulls out a cigarette from his pocket. And Jinx pulls out a lighter. She lights it, Johnny starts to smoke without a care in the world. "And you wasted your time and mine with this visit" he blows smoke towards him. But he didn't get the reaction he was looking for when Jaune just ignores it. "Fine why don't you tell me what you want to say" Johnny puts out the cigarette. Jaune leans on the table and his glare somehow intensifies even more. "I want you and Fear to stay in your fucking rooms and I wanted to tell the rest too. But of course you ruin everything-" he gets interrupted by Johnny slamming his fist on the table. "You know what Jaune, go fuck yourself. Your the one who lets us affect you emotionally" he crosses his arms. "Little Jaune is your scared little self while me. I'm your strength and pride but you rather have me locked up in this shit hole" he could feel his anger rising. "And locking me up here is the reason nobody at Beacon takes you serious. You spineless piece of shit. You let that fucker Cardin beat you and worse of all".

He Johnny starts to shake from the rage. Jinx eventually let's go and disappears for the last time. "You let him take advantage of Velvet for so long while you bitch and moan about your stupid love life!". He saw his hands turning into fists "If it was love you wanted, we could have stayed with Jinx in that hell that we belonged to!". His knuckles turn white "But no you had to go to become a fucking Huntsman. Well guess what Jaune, without me you just became a soft little bitch that rather ignore all that fighting skills that we trained with our grandfather". He starts to shake "But no, Mr. I want to keep the family legacy alive. Wants to use a freaking sword which we don't have any idea how to use. And the only person who can teach us is banging a asshole she only-", "That's enough!" Jaune finally had enough. He stands up "I don't need to take your crap!" he turns around and walks towards the door. He could feel Jaune's anger leaving.

"Fine then go, run like a bitch with his tail between his legs. No wonder Pyrrha gave up on your dumb ass" Jaune stops and turns back to him. "Did I touch a nerve...coward" he could feel his anger rising again. "Your pathetic honestly, always running away from your problems. Never taking responsibility for your actions" he saw Jaune's hands balling into fists. "Like when you got Jay and his buddies killed by your weakness. All you did was hide behind dear old Gramp's castle" his fists were shaking. "And the way you ranted at that white fang members at Patch about killing and hurting people. And about how the family of their victims are left broken" Johnny puts both hands on the table. "Tell me Jaune, have you spoken or seen Jay's father or brother?" he leans with this sinister smile. "Elisabeth is right, your no good to Jad-" Jaune had enough and grabs the table and throws it to the side. Johnny stands up and that sinister smile never vanished.

Mira could be seen holding Lizzie's hand while walking to the hallway inside the rising sun hotel. "I am amazed of how big this place is" she told Lizzie who nods. They kept walking till they made it to their room. Which felt more like a apartment in their opinion. Inside was Timmy playing his ukulele and wearing a baby blue onesie with a bunny (just like Jaune ;). Mira was confused to see him wearing that "Timmy, where did you get that?". He stops playing and turns to her "A lady came with a box and said that it was for us". He hops off the couch and goes beside it and carries out a box. He puts it down and pulls out a pink onesie with a brown bunny. "This one is for Lizzie" and he reaches for another one. And pulls out a bigger one that is white and has the golden deer. "And this one is for you" she walks to it and Lizzie pulls her hand from hers. She grabs her onesie and runs to the bathroom to change. Mira grabs hers and could feel how soft the fabric is. "It feels good doesn't it?, mother Mira" Timmy said with a smile. She couldn't help but chuckle by how adorable he looks.

"Yes it does" Lizzie came back wearing her new pajamas. She stood next to Timmy with Pete still in her hand. "Well then, I should go put this on" she walks to the bathroom. Just as she went inside did Winter return. Timmy went through the box again and pulled out another white onesie with the Schnee logo. And presents it with the biggest smile.

Jaune and Johnny could be seen laying on the floor surrounded by broken chairs, tables and shattered glass. They both are bruises with cuts. Johnny sits up and looks at Jaune trying to catch his breath. "Your pathetic" he starts standing up and limping towards him "Your quick to blame me or Fear about your anger" he stops next to him. "You lock me up just like him. Cause you hate seeing the real you" he reaches for him. Once he has a hold of his hoodie he pulls him up. "Well guess what Jaune, without me. You would have died that day with them" their eyes glare at each other. "But I pulled through for you and Leo. I was your stubbornness that kept you from dying that day". Jaune starts to feel something that made him flicker. Johnny notices this and drops him to the floor "It seems that our little discussion is ending here. But just remember Jaune, stop blaming me for your fuck ups. And take responsibility for your actions. And you might want to tell everyone what really happened that day. Starting with the person who lost more then anyone else that day".

Jaune woke up and looks around to find Smith reading a book. He started to get up which alerted Smith of his presence. "I see your back, how was it?", "I saw them and it went poorly" Jaune stood up. "How much do I owe you?", "Nothing, your sister already paid for your week's sessions" Jaune gave a weak nod. "Which I'm prescribing you these meds that you'll take at night before you go to sleep" he hands him the bottle. He takes them and stuffs them inside his hoodie. "Do you wish for me to call your sister to come and pick you up?" Jaune thought of it. But he shakes his head "No, I have something I need to do before I head home". "Understood, have a nice night Mr. D'Arc", "Thank you" he walks out of the office and makes his way to the street. He pulls up his hood and kept replying his time with Johnny. And hearing everything he told him about not taking responsibility for his actions. "I should do something" he looks to his left and then right. And he come to a decision that might get him hurt.

So he starts walking farther in the city till he makes it to a familiar bar he feared to walk into but he had to. He slowly reaches for the doorknob and eventually got the courage to go inside. Once he opens the door and walks in and sees few people there. He walks to the bar and takes a seat and waits for the bartender. Eventually he comes over and leans on the bar "What will you be having?". "A bottle of whiskey please" the bartender recognizes that voice. "Johnny?" he then reaches for the rim of the hood and raises it enough to throw back and reveals Jaune's face. "So you are back" a hatful tone could be heard from him. Jaune looks at the person and sees someone who he tried to avoid since that fateful day. Jay's father, Barrett Miller. A behemoth of a man and a retired huntsman. He reaches for Jaune and pulls him over the bar by his hoodie. "YOU HAVE THE GUTS TO SHOW YOUR FACE HERE!" he slams Jaune on the bar and leans closer to his face. "Murderer" his voice held so much venom. "I'm sorry" Jaune said in a whimper. "I didn't want Ja-" a giant fist slams into his face to silence him. "YOU DON'T GET TO SAY HIS NAME!" he kept hit him. Jaune never once even tried to put up a fight. Eventually Barrett stops and sees his handy work. he drags him across the bar. Pushing many drinks from customers to the floor and shattering glass.

Once he got to the edge of the bar, he threw Jaune to the wall. The impact on the wall had left spiderwebs of cracks. He fell onto the floor on his side, making the side of his head hit the wooden floor. He slowly rolled over and tried to sit up but he was met with a foot to the face. Making him hit the floor with his head again. "GET UP!" he tries again but he was met with the same result. "Barrett stop, your killing him!" he turns to see one of his regulars getting up from his seat at a table. "I'm doing what's right!" He looks at Jaune again and sees his busted lip and busted nose that was leaking blood. "This piece of shit killed my youngest son!" he puts pressure on it. But Jaune didn't even flinch. He kept thinking about that day with Jay and his friends dying. "He dragged my son and some of his friends out in the woods to DIE!" he stomps his foot on Jaune's chest. "He didn't pay for what he did!" he stomps him again. "AND I NEVER GOT TO BURY HIS BODY!" he does it again. Just as he was about to stomp on him again. The customer ran to him and tried to pull him away "STOP!" but he didn't budge "Call the police!". Barrett pushes the customer away.

But before he could go back to beating Jaune farther. The door opens up to reveal two officers with their weapons out. "Everyone freeze!" Jaune turns and sees Hans, Jay's older brother.

Song by Fivefold

Violet is in his dressing room getting ready for tonight's performance. He's wearing a white suit with a crimson button up shirt with dress shoes to match. With a black tie, leather gloves and his new glasses that are thinner than his original ones. Knocking came from his door "Hey Violet it's me Max, can I come in", "Sure '' Max came in dressed in a blue suit. Violet looks at him and notices an envelope he recognizes. "Is that-", "The VIP tickets you send to your sisters...I'm sorry Jaune '' he could see how much this meant for him. "No it's fine, they might be busy" he told him. Max felt uncomfortable till he heard the door being knocked "We're on in fifteen minutes!", "Thanks!" Max shouts back. He turns to see Jaune pull out his wallet and then a photo. The photo is of him and Jade, in the kitchen. Cooking up their infamous cookies. They had chief hats and the most notable thing is those bright smiles. His sour demeanor changed to a smile that nearly resembled the one in the photo. "We should go and see how many people are out there," Max said. All Violet did was nod and place the photo back inside his wallet and give it to Max, for safekeeping.

They made it to their destination, where Violet saw someone who got his attention. Weiss Schnee, singing her soul out to the crowd. He hasn't had the chance to speak to her yet. But for some reason he was looking forward to it. Seeing how graceful she carries herself. "Hey handsome" he turns his head to see the beauty of a woman. Purple hair that's curly and her eyes to match her hair color. Her skin is a rich brown, and she had this beauty mark under her right cheek. She seems around 5'5 in height and her breasts size is C cups. He couldn't see her lower part for the puffy dress. "Now, now Violet, my eyes are up here~" he had a small blush. "Sorry for that, I just couldn't help myself" he manages to smile. Which made her blush "I just couldn't stop admiring such a beauty as yours". He gave her his signature smile that seem to do the trick. "Miss. West, we need to leave if we wish to see your friend's departure" one of her bodyguards told her. She looks at them "Fine" she looks back at Violet. "I'll see you tomorrow for the next show...Red" she winks and walks away.

He sees her leaving when he hears Weiss finishing her performance. She takes a bow and gracefully walks towards him. He just keeps clapping till she was close enough. He stops and extends his hand for a hand shake. "Wow that performance was amazing" but she looks at his hand. He stays like that for a while but she never even raises her's. He eventually pulls his hand back and stuffs it inside his pocket. "So I'm Vi-", "I know who you are" she rudely interrupts him. But being the dense blonde he is, he didn't catch that irritated tone. He didn't get a chance to say something else when Max came over. "Violet your up!" he starts to push him towards the stage. "Okay, okay I'm going" he starts to put on the earpiece which Max gave him after he finally toke a step on stage. He walks at first but when the crowd goes crazy. He couldn't help but start dancing towards the center. Many women started to yell for him to marry them. He didn't respond but he did give them a wink and a kiss he blew towards them. Weiss crosses her arms and rolls her eyes at him "Womanizer" she thought. "Are you ready?!" He asks which everyone shouts yes. "Alright then!" he looks at Max and gives him a nod. Music starts and Violet starts to get in the zone. But not before turning to see Weiss standing next to Max.

He winks at her, but she just rolls her eyes again. "It's not the end of the world. In fact, it's not even the end of the summer. But thank God the TV is on 'Cause there's no way we could know. Anything that's goin' down. Or how we're supposed to be feeling about it. I can't tell you how much I wish we could shut up and smile, yeah" he couldn't help but dance near the edge. Some fans try to touch him, but he kept dodging them. "Sail around the world and tell them all to keep singing it. La la la la la la, All we needs a harmony and we'll convince the world to sing. La la la la la la" Weiss felt annoyed by his performance. So childish, and the song was nothing but idiotic as well. "Throw your arms around someone (throw your arms around someone) Maybe spread a little love. I know it sounds a little dumb (or maybe I'm a little drunk) But all we need is some ice cream and a hug" Violet smiles even bigger when he hears them singing with him.

"Take a good look around. Does life really suck, Are we just complaining. I hope that this mic is on (testing 1, 2) 'Cause I'm on a roll here. I hope this is making some sense. I hope that you'll throw up your hands and sing it. And tell all the haters that they should just shut up and smile, yeah" Max looks over to her and could feel this piss mist coming from her. "Sail around the world and tell them all to keep singing it. La la la la la la, All we needs a harmony and we'll convince the world to sing. La la la la la la" he sees the fans throwing their arms over each other's shoulders and move side by side. "Throw your arms around someone (throw your arms around someone) Maybe spread a little love. I know it sounds a little dumb (or maybe I'm a little drunk) But all we need is some ice cream" Weiss finally had enough of this and decides to leave. "All we need is love and beer. And old school metal and holiday cheer. To be happy (All you need is someone near). Like Ben and Jerry (To hold you close and pretend that they care)" Max looks at her walking away and once she was gone. He turns back to see Violet enjoying himself. "Can we all just, get along now? We found something that we all have in common now. We can hold hands, do keg stands. Water skiing sounds great to me now"

"Sail around the world and tell them all to keep singing it. La la la la la la, All we needs a harmony and we'll convince the world to sing. La la la la la la" he stops moving around and spreads his arms wide open. And only moves his head to the beat. "Throw your arms around someone (throw your arms around someone) Maybe spread a little love. I know it sounds a little dumb (or maybe we?Re a little drunk). But all we need is some ice cream and a hug. All we need is some ice cream and a hug. All we need is some ice cream and a hug. All we need is some ice cream and a hug" he looks at where Weiss was but she is long gone. He felt bad not having a conversation with her. He snaps out of his funk when he notices Max signaling him to continue. He looks at his fans and starts to fake a smile. He sang a couple of his songs that are known. After that he says his good byes and wishes them the best.

After all of that was over, Violet went around back stage to find her. But she wasn't anywhere to be found. So he walks back to his dressing room to put on his black suit. Once done he and Max went to the after party which is being held at someone's mansion. He never paid attention to the location of it. "Violet are you listening?", "Sorry I was just thinking about Weiss". Max rolls his eyes "Why am I not surprised. You think of the one girl who ignored you. But you haven't even tried to find the girl who took your V-card". Violet just rolls his eyes and looks outside through the window. He finally sees a mansion that he recognizes the logo on the gate. They are at the Schnee mansion. Once out of the limousine, he is ambush by the paparazzi. Flashes of lights blind him from all the photos. "That's enough, security!" Violet finally could see. And he spots a butler with red eyes looking at the paparazzi being drag out. "I do apologize sir" his eyes change to pink. "What the heck, did his eyes change. No its fine thank you for your assistance Mr?" he extends his hand.

He notices his surprise expression which was briefly. "Klein, Klein Sieben at your service sir?" they change to yellow and he happily shakes his hand. He saw it again "Just Violet well do thank you" Klein happily announced his arrival. Violet went into the crowd of celebrities, rich folks and high ranking military guests. He was asked by many for selfies and autographs. Till he makes it to a group of older gentlemen who were discussing with each other. "Did you hear?, a D'Arc is here" one of them told the others. "Yes and I heard that he came over with his son whose to be arranged to marry Winter Schnee" Violet stood there frozen. To hear that some of his relatives are here. "Speaking of the devils, look" one of them points at the people he didn't want to see. Standing there was his uncle Maroon who has long brown hair that is slick back. And his mustache with a goatee that is well maintained. And standing next to him is his oldest cousin Bruno who has a short textured hair and a goatee. "Wait a minute, if they're here then where's" he then felt someone slap his ass. "Enya", "Sorry handsome but I just needed to know if those buns are more then for show" he doesn't move.

The slap was loud enough for everyone to turn to see them. Her with her hand still on his ass and him keeping a blink expression. He makes eye contact with his other relatives who heard the slap. Maroon starts to make his way to them "Don't come any closer asshole". "Enya please behave yourself and Mr. ?", "Violet" he said dryly. "Maroon D'Arc, from the Arc clan" he said with a prideful manner. But Violet didn't even react to it. Which he notices and took offense "Have you not heard of the Arc clan?". Once he sees his cousins move next to their father. He sees Enya whose wearing a expensive green dress. Her black hair, blue eyes and beautiful face might fool anyone. But he knew how rotten that bitch is inside. Both of his cousins are twins and beat him by two years. "I have actually, I'm good friends with the Arc family back in Ansel" this seem to make Maroon even more upset. "So I take it you've met my younger brother", "Yes and I got to say. I'm amazed how he doesn't throw his name around like you" he couldn't help but love seeing him and his son getting more angry. "And how he didn't touch one lien from his father and made his own path" he saw Bruno move. But Maroon stops him and looks around to see everyone looking at them.

He sees Jacques Schnee amongst those eyes and his wife. He turns back to him "And who do you think you are to talk to-", "He told you he's Violet". Max could be seen walking towards them "And I wanted to tell him this in secret after the party". Once he was beside him "His first album has sold eighty million copies in three weeks". A waiter walks by them and Max grabs two glasses of champagne. He hands one to Violet, who was also shocked by the news. He unconsciously grabs it "What?", "You are the number one-". He didn't let him finish that sentence. He chugs the champagne and gives the glass to Max again. "I think I need some air" he pushes through the crowd. When he walks out to a hallway he didn't know where he was going but thankfully he pumps into Klein. "Violet?" his eyes are still yellow "Sorry I was looking for some fresh air", "Then let me take you to one of my favorite places" . He leads him up to a balcony "Here we go sir, if you need anything else just come find me". Violet just keeps looking at the stars. Time went on till he heard someone approaching him. He didn't need to look to know who it is. "Did Klein tell you where I'll be?", "Yes...but I also had a hunch".

Max joins him and sees the stars "This kinda remains me of the first time we met". He said which brought a smile to Violet. "Who would have thought how far we've come" he looks at Violet. "So I got to ask, what's wrong Jaune?" Violet turns around and leans on the railing. "Do you really want to know?", "Yes". "Don't get me wrong, I'm happy that we made it...but I kinda wish...the songs that were sold were from me", "What do you mean?, those songs are from you" Violet shakes his head. "Those songs are written by me but they're not me. They're not the real me" Max understood now. He moves around too and leans next to him. They stay quiet for a bit, looking at the door. "You know something Jaune. I really liked that song you sang the first time we met", "You mean the first time you were spying on me". They both laugh at the memory, which distracted them from hearing someone sneaking out from the window down below. Max digs through his pocket and pulls out his scroll. "You know, the guys came out with this new app. That is a small pocket size piano". He puts it on and hands it to him "It would be good to hear the song this time with some music".

Violet grabs it and tests it out and likes how it sounded. "Fine, but I want to go somewhere tonight and celebrate our success", "Deal". He starts to play a little bit to find the right melody for the song. He eventually found it "I wish I could tell you the things I never got the chance to" Max looks up to the stars. "I wish I was with you now to see your smile again. I wish we had more time but time goes by so fast. A moment comes and then the moment passes by. In the blink of an eye and if I had one wish" Violet notices Klein coming towards them with some appetizers. "I wouldn't ask for money, I wouldn't ask for fame" he doesn't stop singing and focuses on the scroll. "I wouldn't ask for the power to make this world change" Max looks at Klein and reaches for a snack. "If I could have one thing that one thing that I would choose. Is one more ordinary day with you, with you" Violet closes his eyes and remembers his time with his grandmother. "I wish I could see you and be there where my arms could reach you. I wish I can let you know how much you touch my life".

"Maybe a little time is all the time we get. The words we long to say are words that go unsaid" the person under them was none other then Willow Schnee. Listening to his song and turning to see a photo of her father. With her mother and another couple standing by them. "You can't go back again but if I had one wish. I wouldn't ask for money, I wouldn't ask for fame. I wouldn't ask for the the power to make this world change" Klein looks at them which Max nods for him to join stay with them. "If I could have one thing that one thing that I would choose. Is one more ordinary day with you" Violet finally opens his eyes and looks up. "I wish we had more time, time goes by so fast. The moment comes and the moment passes by. In the blink of an eye and if I had one wish" Willow couldn't help but cry silently. "I wouldn't ask for money, I wouldn't ask for fame. I wouldn't ask for the the power to make this world change, no. If I could have one thing that one thing that I would choose. Is one more ordinary day, just one more ordinary day with you, with you" when he finishes, Max and Klein start to clap. He takes a bow and couldn't help but be happy.

After that he starts to eat and grabs a glass he looks up to the stars again. "So Violet, who May I ask, have you written that song for?" Klein asks. "For my grandmother...she would sneak me out of my room. When my parents were asleep and we'll go to the balcony and look up at the stars" Klein couldn't help but notice his expression seem more sad in the mention of that. "And it's the last time I saw her too...we were looking upon the stars and she sang to me...one last time" a tear escapes his eyes. Klein pulls out a handkerchief and offers it to him. He accepts and wipes the tears away. "Thank you" after that they eventually went back inside. He looks around to see everyone staring at him. He then felt someone tapping his shoulder. He turns to see a group of women who ask him for some autographs. After he manages to get away from them. He had some agents giving him their cards and to think over the offer they gave him. But he declined and told them he was happy with Max Jones as his agent.

"Excuse me" he looks at the person and sees Weiss standing there. "Hey beautiful, I missed you after my performance" he said with a smile. "I just wanted to congratulate you for your success" he just kept seeing her expression. That smile was being forced and he looks behind her and sees her father staring at them. "I was hoping to ask if-", "Do you want to go somewhere more private?" he asked her. She tenses and by just looking at her. He knew if they weren't here then she would have slapped him or told him off by such suggestions. He was expecting for her to say no and walk away. "Sure, we can go to the music room" she said. He lines beside her and gestures her to take his arm "Then lead the way". She hesitated but she gave in and started to lead him. Once they entered the room, Violet pulled his arm away and looks at the instruments. His eyes landed on a white expensive piano. "Wow this looks, good" he didn't need to see her face to know she was shocked to hear that. "I'll let you know this piano cost-", "Yea I know it's expensive but it looks like it's never been used. Just here to show off how rich you guys are". He takes a seat and pats the empty spot for her.

She couldn't stop herself and roll her eyes and sit next to him. He looks around the room and then up to the ceiling. "Is it smart to have the ceiling as a mirror " he kept looking. Weiss looks up too and knows something he doesn't. But he stops looking up and starts to test the keys "You know, I wanted to talk to you". He looks at her but he doesn't stop. She looks down to see his hands playing the piano "But I have a feeling that you don't want to speak with me". "What gave you that idea" she sarcastically says. "Do you want to know why I wanted to talk to you" he waits for her to answer. But she remains silent "Cause I wanted to see if you're alright". She glances at him "What do you mean?". "I heard your music...and I know you feel trapped by this burden" he stops playing. "So why don't we just talk to get to know each other" he turns to her and puts his elbow on the piano and leans on it. He could see her getting annoyed by his disrespect on their property. But he didn't move "Come on tell me a little bit of yourself". She remains quiet "Fine I'll break the ice. I'm not happy with the music I have sold". He looks around the room "To me music isn't about sales or getting rich". He gets up and moves towards a guitar that is in display. "It's a way for us to let our feelings out. To let people see the real us. To show them that we're not better then them. That we are just like them and...that we also feel pain and heartache. That we bleed just like them". He grabs the guitar and adjusts it "Maybe that's why I'm kinda jealous of your music".

Weiss never took her eyes off him and couldn't believe what she was hearing. Him being jealous of her music, he's the top performer in Remnant. He goes to a mirror and looks at her through it. He starts to play and what he doesn't know at the moment is that he's being watched by the party goers. Jacques built this part with a one way mirror that is the ceiling. Some of the more powerful guests are standing around the railings and looking down on them. "This world is a winding road you never know what is to come... yeaheaheah" he has this small smile and keeps looking at her. "Fading into memory with its good times and remember whens... yeaheaheah. Staring into this mirror the face that I see, so much has changed since then" he remembers his short hair and piercings...his life as Johnny. "But if you'd, take the time to dig a little deeper, take a look in my eyes" Weiss didn't know why but she could swear his eyes shined just a for a second. "You'd see life, you'd see dreams, a fire deep in me. It's what I am... everything I'll ever be... woah. I will not be afraid of what is to come and I will rise and I will rise above it all" his voice got more deeper.

The hidden audience started to lean on the railing even more. "Better days in a better time when the world didn't seem so cold... yeaheaheah. And though I don't understand, I'll stand strong I'm never giving in can't break me down. Cause if you'd, take the time to dig a little deeper, take a look in my eyes" he finally spins around that caught them by surprise. "You'd see life, you'd see dreams, a fire deep in me. It's what I am... everything I'll ever be... woah. I will not be afraid of what is to come and I will rise and I will rise above it all" he walks towards her. "Hold me up, hold me close, through this stormy weather. Don't give up, don't lose hope, I need this more than ever, I need you more than ever" he sits next to her and gets closer to her. "You'd see life, you'd see dreams, a fire deep in me. It's what I am... everything I'll ever be... woah. I will not be afraid of what is to come and I will rise and I will rise above it all" he backs away and looks up to see his reflection. "Oh I will not be afraid, I need you more than ever" he slowly looks down towards her again and looks into her eyes. "This road is a winding road you never know what is to come... yeaheaheah" he leans forward with his eyes slowly dimming. Something inside her made her to do the same.

But he moves away from the kiss and moves towards her ear. "Now I told you a little bit of myself, your turn~" he couldn't help himself but smirk. He backs away to see her turn red and looking mad about being lead on like that. She kept opening and closing her mouth none stop. Trying to make some words but all that's coming out is gibberish. His scroll starts to ring and he looks at the message from Max. Telling him that they should head back to the hotel's bar and celebrate. And to remind him that he has tomorrow to perform as well. "As much as I love to hear your melt down" he puts it away and gets up. "I have to leave so I'll see you tomorrow at the concert again. And this time I hope you stick around for my performance" he leans down. "But let me leave you with something to remember me by for the night" he kisses her on the cheek. "Sweet dreams Angel" he puts the guitar on the piano and walks away. leaving one stunned Weiss and many people in the same state like her. Stunned from witnessing his secret performance and teasing Weiss Schnee of all people.

Violet gets in the limousine and sits next to Max. They travel back in silence till Jaune gets a idea for a song. "Hey is the recording room set up?" Max looks at him. "Yes why?", "I just got an idea for a song" he raises his hands up in a revealing motion. "Take Your Time" he says proudly.
