Jaune wanted nothing more than to become a hero – and in a way he got his wish. One man's criminal is another's hero and the faunus of Remnant need a champion. Who better to take the mantle of leader of the White Fang? Not a faunus? Not a terrorist? No aura, training or leadership skills to speak of? Minor details. All hail supreme leader Jaune Arc. Long live the resistance!

Follow the story of RWBY from a different perspective in this AU story where characters' roles are swapped. What all will seem different? Stay tuned to find out

Ilia Amitola; a girl who’d lived a life full of anger and tragedy, barely managing to keep herself from succumbing to the same hate so many other faunus had. Meanwhile, Carmella Lindt had only ever wanted to help people and defend what was important to her, but lacked the means to do so. Two faunus on a collision course, a pair of souls, each one meant to complete the other.

What is known about aura? What are the limits of one's semblance? What truly lies within the depths of a simple soul? Let it shine through. Prologue is finished, onward to Beacon.

A story that in no way involves the characters of RWBY being thrust into another dimension and viewing many different stories from across the multiverse. Even if that was the setup, it wouldn't center on Jaune Arc, right? That's not what this is all about- this is a classy fanfiction profile. ...Right?

Yang is still recovering from the loss of her arm a month after the Fall of Beacon. PTSD has set in, and Yang will have to learn to cope as she journeys forth to find someone dear to her heart. Trigger Warning. Mentions of death and violence. (Bumbleby)

City streets and tourniquets; puppet strings and marionettes. The remnants of Humanity pay an iron debt, democracy erodes, and this bedtime story ends with misery ever after. Or at least, that's how it was supposed to go until she met a dork in not-so-shining armor.

Just a simple musical one shot. I'm sure you seen the type of story before. The idea popped into my head after reading a few similar stories and I heard the song and instantly thought of this idea so here it is. Cover image by Daniel Robert Dinu

Volume 8 AU. Emerald gets there a second too late. Far below, Ruby wakes up with a jolt.

"So little huntress… had a good dream?" After the incident at the docks, Ruby Rose felt things could only look up for her team, but after a class trip to the emerald forest, a fated meeting caused things to drastically change. To new threats, hellish training, and mysterious allies. It will take her will and strength to keep pushing onward, and who is this hunter in violet?

Roman had diploma in one hand and a long time girlfriend in the other. A loving family at his back as well. Not to mention a semblance that made being a psychiatrist easy. Sure there was school debt, but he has a plan to do so much more than survive. What could go wrong?

Ruby was happy, even if her friends hated him. When her ex-team finds out she's pregnant, they use an experimental serum to force Ruby to change. Ruby instead finds herself in her 15-year-old body. She learned from the best and Ruby Rose will lie, cheat, and steal to repeat her happy ending.

Jaune's life has been turned upside-down and worry of what will happen next. Lemon. Dark. Foursome-Marriage.

It's RWBY, but those with semblances turn into cars instead.

The Butterfly Effect is such an interesting thing. All it takes is the slightest difference in order for a story to go down a different route than expected. If you like the idea of such a story, where a minor change has the potential to alter the course of history, then you've come to the right place.

Loss is never easy, especially when it causes you to drift apart from those you love. Be mindful of your words, as you never know what kind of an impact they will truly have until it is too late. Ruby learns this the hard way, and now her twin is lost, trapped in a mindset that she had created. Now, she may be too far gone. (Art is by Hiwonoafu on DeviantArt)

(ship may come later in the story]

Jaune was raised to always do the right thing, even if it left him battered and broken. Now expelled from Beacon and hunted by Winchester thugs, he wonders how right that advice was in a world that rewarded only selfishness and greed. At least until a mysterious stranger offers him a way out – all Jaune has to do is hurt the people who hurt him. It should be an easy Payday, right?

Yang and Jaune both are people who have suffered pain and loss, can two friends help each other to heal the scars of the past? Maybe along the way also find something between them that will lead them to rethinking their relationship as simply friends to something more?
