Well here it is. The next chapter. And I'm sure some of you will notice that this chapter seems familiar. Well for those of you wondering, yes, this is the Hercules chapter from Humenwrecker's Reacting to alternate Arcs, and written by JC of the Corn. We got permission a long while back during the early days of this story, and even to do some edits, like adding some songs or swapping characters. It has been so long they… probably don't remember giving permission since it's been more than a year at least… sorry for the wait…

I hope all of you enjoy the first part of this universe, as me and Amp decided to do this one in parts so it doesn't take forever for a chapter to come out… hopefully.

Wolf let out an annoyed groan as he looked like a complete mess. "I am never hosting a christmas party with you people again!" he shouted.

Cinder, Pyrrha and Ruby all had embarrassed looks. As they should, because the reason Wolf looked the way he did was because he tried to get between the three of them fighting over the last chocolate chip cookie. So it was obvious how that went down.

"Sorry…" the three mumbled.

"You better be!" Wolf shouted in a very unhappy tone.

"I told you not to." Es shrugged.

"WELL EXCUSE ME FOR WANTING TO ENJOY THE HOLIDAYS!" Wolf shouted as he threw his Santa hat on the floor, only for another letter to show up. "AH, WHAT IS IT THIS TIME!" He really needed to have a mail system or something.

Wolf

I am sending the four "Relics" to the theater. The spirits within are no longer bound to Gol's rules while there so USE them. They are good kids. Also keep in mind that they are, technically, my wife's nieces and nephew. Gol isn't just a shit God but a shit dad, go figure. Anyway please take care of Ambrosius, Jinn, Nimue, and Pythia. Also Cinder, be nice to your cousins. Ozpin hid them away to protect them for a LONG time, so they may be...awkward. Even more so than Ruby.

Sincerely

Adrian Midnight-Phoenix

"Uh… what?" Wolf asked, only for the four spirits to end up showing up. Three blue ladies, and a big blue man. All of which… were naked save for golden chains on their bodies.

The man, Ambrosius, gave a stretch. "Mmm! It feels so good to stretch for once. Honestly, my talents are wasted sleeping all the time in that staff!"

"Well, it's certainly good to see you again I suppose, Ambrosius…" Pythia, the spirit of truth, chuckled, honestly finding her brothers… unique personality a little grating. She had long hair, with the bangs tied behind into a braided ponytail. (Think lenore from castlevania.)

"Well hello to you too, sister. Still sitting around seeing possible outcomes?" Ambrosius asked.

"Yes, and what about you, still feel like your talents are misused whenever you are summoned?" Pythia teased.

"Oh don't even get me started! Just once I'd like to be summoned by someone with a little more creativity. I mean honestly. A floating city? How pedestrian. That metal oaf has no imagination!" Ambrosius groaned.

Winter, Weiss and Willow all turned to him, with wide eyes. Was he talking about Atlas?

Jinn however, noticed Ozpin. "Well well, long time no see, old man." she said with a smirk.

"Aw… I liked you better with a beard…" Nimue, the spirit of destruction, pouted. She had shoulder length hair, though the bangs were much longer. (Think fem Merlin from fate.)

Ozpin was surprised by that, but cleared his throat. "Yes, well, back then I went by Merlin."

Salem then decided to cut in. "Wait, wait, wait! Ozma had a beard?"

"Yeah! It was long and poofy." Nimue nodded with a big smile.

"Can we please not remember that…" Ozpin begged.

"OZMA HAD A BEARD?!" Salem asked through hysterical laughter.

"Yeah. Want to see it?" Nimue asked.

"NO!" Ozpin shouted.

"YES!" Salem countered.

Nimue smirked as she turned to her "beloved" brother. "Ambrosius, mind doing a favor for your loving sister?"

Ambrosius smirked. "Oh, gladly." he chuckled as he created a portrait of Ozma when he was Merlin. He had a big bushy beard. He looked like a standard kind of wizard like Gandalf or Dumbledore.

Salem just started laughing her pale ass off. "H-he looks so ridiculous!" she laughed, wrapping her arms around her stomach. Glynda also couldn't help but laugh as well. It was honestly the funniest thing she had ever seen.

Ozpin then gave a huff in annoyance, while Nimue patted his shoulder. "It's okay, Oz. I honestly liked the beard. It tied the wise wizard look together."

Ozpin then sighed. "Thanks, I suppose…"

Jinn then smirked. "Oh yes, sister. That's why you liked the beard so much." she teased.

Nimue's face began to turn a darker shade of blue. "J-Jinn! You promised you would never speak of that again!"

Salem then stopped laughing as the conversation went on, as now she had a very unhappy feeling. "Excuse me… what exactly are you talking about?"

Pythia also began to smirk at her sister. "Oh yes, Nimue. What exactly are you referring to?"

"You'll need to say it, dear." Jinn chuckled.

Nimue then began to cover her face to hide her embarrassment.

Ambrosias then realized something. "Are the two of you referring to when she used to have a crush on the old man?"

Everyone went wide eyed at this revelation, while Jinn and Pythia began to snicker a bit.

Salem however, was far from amused. "Excuse me…" she said with a deadly tone.

That was until Nimue spoke out. "I DON'T HAVE A CRUSH ON PAPA MERLIN!" she shouted.

Now this, this definitely took everyone by surprise, as Ozpin began to clear his throat a bit at the awkward situation. Salem's murderous expression, changed instantly to one of excitement. Because if this girl saw Ozma as her father, that automatically made her the mother.

Jinn and Pythia were laughing their big blue asses off now. As this was just too funny. While Nimue was now really embarrassed. "I-I mean… I might have had a crush on him once, b-but he is more like a father to me now…" she pouted.

Pythia smirked. "Oh yes. I also can't help but remember how you later had feelings for that Arthur fellow who used to carry you around~" she teased.

Juniper's eyes went wide at this. "EXCUSE ME?!" she asked, learning that this big blue girl had a crush on her ancestor.

"Please stop!" Nimue begged.

"Children, what have I told you about teasing your sister?" Ozpin said sternly.

Pythia and Jinn huffed. "Sorry…" they grumbled.

"Thank you papa!" Nimue said with a smile.

"Of course dear." Ozpin nodded.

Salem then scooted over to Nimue. "So… you see Ozma as your father?"

"Y-yea…" Nimue said with a blush.

Salem had a big smile as she looked up at the girl. "Then welcome to the family!"

This made Nimue smile, as she strank down smaller, and hugged Salem close. "Thank you mama!" This made Salem really happy as she hugged back.

As all this insanity was happening, Adrian and Juliet looked to each other's mothers. A tiny little thought went through their baby heads, as they began crawling to them. If they were siblings, and they both had different mothers…

Juliet went over to Saphron and Terra, while Adrian went up to Ilia.

Saphron and Terra smiled at Juliet. "Can we help you with something, sweetie?" Saphron asked.

Ilia just looked at Adrian confused. Not really. Sure what to say to the human baby.

The babies however just smiled up at them, and said only one thing at the same time. "Mama Iwia/Sappy an Tewwa!"

This caused the three girls to blush hard, and even begin to gush as they picked them up.

Saphron and Terra just smiled as they both hugged Juliet. "Oh you are so cute!" Terra laughed.

Ilia however, was making a lot of confused lizard noises as she picked up and looked at the small infant. She didn't know what was going on and her brain was scrambling to find a coherent thought. Even so, she couldn't help but hold Adrian close.

Wolf gave a sigh. "Alright, now that that's out of the way, we can get to the next universe I want to show. Going back to an ancient age of gods and heroes." This got everyone interested in what they were going to see.

The scene opened up to a marble hall, which held many statues of gods and heroes.

"Wow… look at all of them…" Ruby said, awestruck by what they all saw.

"It looks like ancient western Mistrilian architecture." Pyrrha said in amazement.

"Long ago in the faraway lands of Ancient Greece, there was a golden age of powerful gods and extraordinary heroes." Spoke a narrator.

"How many gods and heroes were there for it to be considered a golden age?" Weiss asked in confusion.

Jinn smirked, as while she was here, she was given knowledge over many universes, not just her own. "Why I'm glad you ask-"

"Enough gods to create a whole pantheon, and then some, and enough heroes to create several books worth of stories chronicling their achievements. Some even became kings or queens, and even gods themselves." Wolf interrupted. "They are stories of gods rising to power, and mortal men overcoming impossible odds, or even the children of both man and gods becoming legends."

Everyone was amazed by what Wolf just said. Well… almost everyone.

"Wha- hey! Answering questions is my thing!" Jinn shouted in annoyance.

Wolf then just shrugged. "Sorry to burst your big blue bubble, Jinnie. But any chance to talk about ancient Greece's myths, I'm going to take it. I'm a Greek myth nut." Wolf chuckled.

"Oh you're a nut, alright." Es said as she rolled her eyes.

Jinn huffed and crossed her arms. "I was sent here to do a job. Not have it be stolen by some mangy dog."

"And the greatest and strongest of all these heroes, was the mighty Arcules." Just then an urn, with the depiction of a man battling a lion was shown.

Everyone's eyes went wide at both the name, and the mural, as they immediately recognized the figure.

"Wait… that's Jaune?" Velvet said in shock.

"Greatest and strongest of all the heroes?" Emerald asked with a raised brow.

"I won't lie, that is honestly a strong claim, given it was called a golden age of heroes." Winter admitted.

"That probably just speaks of how incredible the young man is in this universe." Kali chuckled.

"But what is the measure of a true hero? Now, that is what our story is truly ab-"

Everyone was now curious, as they turned to Jinn. "So… what exactly is the measure of a true hero?" Summer asked. Ruby definitely wanted to know, because she wanted to be a hero badly.

Jinn however shook her head. "Sorry, but I can't answer that. You will just have to watch and see."

Everyone was disappointed by that, but then looked to Wolf, hoping he would be much more willing to- "Don't even think about it." Wolf replied… well… guess not…

"Will you listen to him?" Said a voice, interrupting the narrator. Showing that a group of women were on the urn. The one on the far left, Ciel, took a mask from the one next to her, Robyn, before holding it in front of her face. "He's making this story sound like some Greek tragedy."

Winter gasped as her eyes went wide however, as she was surprised by what she saw. "C-Ciel?" though she was also surprised to see Robyn, as she was well known in Atlas.

When she said this, Ciel on the screen looked at Winter, and gave a wink.

This made everyone else go as wide eyed as Winter did. They thought it had to be just a coincidence. There was no way the characters on the screen could actually see them… right?

"Lighten up dude!" The one on the far right, Becky, said to the narrator with a smile.

"Mommy!" Chance said happily as he saw his mother. Roman meanwhile, just smiled seeing his sister from another universe… in another universe.

When Becky saw them, she just smiled and gave a small wave.

All this did was confuse them even more.

"We'll take it from here, darling." The one in the middle, Glynda spoke.

"You go girls." The narrator said, letting them take over.

Everyone was just more and more confused about these girls. "So… who are they?" Ruby asked, before…

The girls smiled as they began to shake their hips to the beat of music, before Glynda spoke up. "We are the muses! Goddesses of the arts, and proclaimers of heroes!" She said as she flexed her arms and the others certsie.

"Oh…" was Ruby's response.

Becky then grabbed a flare decoration from the urn, and fanned herself with it while standing next to her sister, Maria. "Heroes like Arcules."

Maria smirked seeing her younger self. And as a goddess no less. Well, she always said she had god-like beauty when she was younger.

Ciel smirked. "Honey, you mean Hunkules!" She said as she said as she slid down and rested on the artwork of Arcules's shoulder. "Woo-hoo, I'd love to make some sweet music with him!"

Everyone went wide eyed. None more so than Winter, who was starting to go insane. "What happened to my Stoic Queen?!" she shouted, blushing when she realized she said that outloud. Everyone was looking at her with raised brows.

Ruby however decided to change the subject. "So… does that mean they are the ones who will tell them about this version of Jaune?"

Muse Glynda smiled at her. "That is why we hijacked the viewing, so as to tell the tale properly."

"Ok… but that doesn't explain how you are able to do it." Weiss added.

"Well it's quite simple really. As goddesses of the arts, we are able to affect all forms of art. And since you are watching us through a movie screen, we are able to see you, like a neighbor looking out their window." Muse Glynda explained.

"That… makes sense I suppose?" Weiss said, thinking she got that. Maybe?

"What exactly are they the muses of?" Salem asked.

Muse Glynda turned to Wolf and Jinn. "I'm sure they could tell you all of our domains."

Wolf was about to speak, only for Jinn to slap her hand over his mouth. "Well I'd be glad to answer. Glynda there is the muse of Epic Tales, with which she shows the exploits of heroes and gods."

Glynda was surprised she would be a muse of such things. Though it was fitting, as she taught Huntsmen, which were the heroes of remnant from a certain point of view.

"Robyn is the muse of History, as she is responsible for making sure the past is never forgotten. Maria is the muse of Tragedy, giving tales of sorrow and loss."

This made Maria reminded of her eyes. That, as well as learning of Henry's death, was definitely what she would consider tragedy and loss.

"Then there is Becky, the muse of dance, always bringing cheer and merriment."

Roman smiled a bit, as from what he heard, that definitely sounded like the kind of person his sister was… when she wasn't angry.

"And then finally, there is Ciel, the muse of comedy, always sure to make people laugh." Jinn finished. Her eyes went wide as she removed her hand from Wolf. His tongue was out as he had a smirk, as Jinn's hand had spit on it. "EW! You are disgusting!"

"Try that again, and you will lose that hand." Wolf warned. Causing her to glare at him.

Meanwhile, Winter was definitely surprised by what she was told. Ciel was always so stoic and serious. She was never the comedic type.

Just then, Ciel decided to tease Winter a bit. "You know, Winty, I would have loved to take you and Arcules to my bed chambers for some very sweet music~"

Winter now had the biggest blush on her face. This was definitely not her Ciel.

Glynda had an annoyed look as she turned to Ciel. "Our story actually begins long before Arcules. Many eons ago." She then grabbed some of the decal of the urn and turned it into stairs, with which the girls began walking down. Before starting a song number.

Nimue let out a chuckle at how they were using the urn decorations like that. "I really hope this will be good."

Salem then hugged her close. "So do I. I want to have fun with my daughter." This made Nimue smile even more.

"Waaaaaahaaaaah!

Back when the world was new! The planet earth was down on its luck!"

Ciel then jumped down and tried to catch up before she joined the others as they moved to another urn.

Everyone chuckled at this. While Winter and Penny were having a hard time getting over this. Penny being the most vocal. "It is… bizarre, even if this is a different version of her, it is unsettling seeing big sister Ciel late…" Everyone was surprised to hear her say that, as they didn't expect Penny to see Ciel like a sister.

Another urn was shown, with a mural of giant Grimm, like nothing anyone has ever seen before.

"And everywhere gigantic brutes called Grimm ran amuck!"

Everyone's eyes went wife at this. "W-what are those things…" Velvet asked nervously.

"I've fought hundreds of grimm… and I've never seen anything like those things…" Maria said, as she didnt think even in her prime she could beat those things.

Jinn then answered. "The Grimm of this world are vastly different then our own. So it's no surprise." Everyone was very thankful that Grimm like that wasn't in their world.

"Well of course not. I based my Grimm on animals. Not volcanoes and tornadoes." Es said with a huff.

The mural began to animate, showing the Grimm leaving a trail of destruction all over the world. Causing parts of the urn to break off and fall in front of Ciel. Just pulled up the bottom of her dress.

"It was a nasty place!"

She then walked over the pieces.

"It was a mess wherever you stepped!"

The mural showed the Grimm causing even more destruction. Some of them being living natural disasters, as Glynda continued singing

Seeing this made everyone even more grateful they never had to face something like that.

"Where chaos reigned

And earthquakes and volcanoes never slept!"

Ciel then spun over to her sister's. "Woo! Sing it, girlfriend!" And then they all pointed up to the sky, showing a man coming out of the clouds.

Salem's eyes went wide, as she recognized the figure. "Ozma?" she muttered to herself.

"And then along came Oz!

He hurled his thunderbolts!

He zapped!"

As they said this, it showed Ozpin, though in his original Ozma form, and with a beard, throwing a powerful bolt of lightning and sealing the Grimm into the earth.

Pythia snickered. "Look, Nimue. He has a beard." she teased.

Nimue blushed hard. "Please stop it!"

Pythia was now laughing. "You make it too easy!"

"Locked those suckers in a vault!

They're trapped!

And on his own stopped chaos in its traaaaack!

And that's the gospel truth!

The guy was just too type A to just relaaaaaax!"

It then showed the girls in an urn, recording all the events of Ozma's rise.

Everyone smiled hearing this. Ozpin especially, as it was nice to see at least one version of himself had brought peace to the world like he had been trying to for centuries.

"And that's the world's first dish.

Oz tamed the globe while still in his youth."

Another urn, showed Oz standing triumphantly, thunderbolt in hand.

"Now honey it may seem impossible, that's the gospel truuuuuuth!"

The girls all then posed and danced in front of the dish, showing off a large mountain that reached the clouds.

Now everyone was just surprised to hear he did it while he was young. And Ozpin let out a sigh, as now he just felt like he was humiliating himself at this fact.

"On mount Olympus life was neat, and smooth as sweet vermouth

Ooooh

Though honey it may seem impossible, that's the gospel truuuuuth!"

The screen turned to the sight of a palace in the clouds. Surrounded by gates made of Gold as a chariot pulled by a team of Pegasi flew by, and you could hear sounds of joy and merriment everywhere as there appeared to be a party in full swing. Soon you could see the camera zoom into a courtyard. Where numerous people were smiling and retelling tales of battles won and lost long ago.

Everyone was in awe at what they were seeing. It was like nothing they had ever seen before. "Wow… what is that place…" Summer said in amazement.

Wolf smirked at them. "Welcome to Mount Olympus, home of the gods." he said in a grand tone.

Everyone was even further astounded. The fact that this of all places was the home of gods made it even more impressive. Es just huffed as that place looked way better than her old godly home at the lake of darkness. But she also smirked as it also made her brother's old lake look like shit in comparison.

But the attention was placed on a couple and their baby.

"My baby boy, my little Arcules." Queen Salem said as she looked down at the bundle of joy in her arms.

While she was the epitome of darkness, with hair as white as snow, skin as pale as alabaster, and eyes as black and red as the creatures of Grimm. Her face showed kindness and gentleness towards the child in her arms.

A blond baby with bright blue eyes and the cutest smile ever with a medallion around his neck.

Salem went wide eyed, before gushing at seeing herself have a baby again. And she was a goddess to boot. This was officially her favorite universe. Ozpin couldn't help but feel nostalgic seeing this. It really took him back.

Juniper was gushing hard seeing her baby boy as a baby again, while all the other girls in the theater couldn't help but think baby Jaune was so cute.

Just then, it was Weiss who realized something. "Hold on, so… Salem is Jaune's mother in this universe?"

Everyone else finally realized that as well. Wolf decided to answer. "Yeah, that happens sometimes. Like I said, relations can differ between universes." they decided that was as good an answer as anything.

"Oh behave yourself!" She said as Baby Arcules took a piece of the gems in her hair out and played with it.

All the girls coo at how cute baby Arcules was. Meanwhile, Salem was lost in lala land picturing having another baby now. As she thought this, Ozpin for some strange reason began to feel… nervous. Like he was suddenly in danger.

Not many would expect a former evil goddess to be on Mt. Olympus, but lets just say that the king of the gods, Ozma Zeus, had been a very brave soul. And somehow managed to change the former queen of evil to the light side. Honestly it was crazy. Now her daughter ran the underworld while she lived on Olympus with him.

Everyone laughed at the fact that all it took for this Salem to give up being evil was to just get married. Oz gave a huff. "Didn't work when I did that… even gave her three daughters, and still nothing…" He mumbled.

Pythia chuckled at this, before turning to Oz. "You know, if you talked more, she would have changed."

"And how long would that have taken exactly? Given how stubborn she could be at times." Ozpin asked. Salem took offense to this. She was not stubborn… well… maybe a little… shut up.

Pythia then was silent for a minute. "...some time after your daughter's have kids?" She said nervously.

Ozpin just deadpanned at her, to which she just had a bit of sweat running down her blue body.

Salem meanwhile had an embarrassed blush. Okay… maybe she was stubborn… well… Glynda, Cinder and the Arc's had to get it from somewhere.

Funny how things turned out..

"Awww, look at my son! He's so cute!" Ozma said as he wagged his finger around the baby.

Nicholas had a big smile. "My son was always a cute baby." He said as he pulled out a picture of himself and baby Jaune in matching outfits. "See? My boy was always good looking. A chip off the old block." He chuckled.

Juniper rolled her eyes with a smirk on her face. "Whatever you say dear."

Only for his son to pick him up by his index and lift him over his friend.

"Oh! We got a strong baby over here!" He laughed as his son was going to be a monster of a god when he grew up.

Everyone went wide at this, absolutely flabbergasted to see a baby lift up a full grown man like that. The babies however, were giggling, thinking it was funny seeing that.

"H-how can a baby even manage that?!" Eve asked in shock.

"I think it might have something to do with him being a god, Eve." Jackie explained, as that was the best she could come up with

"Ding ding ding! Give the girl a prize!" Wolf chuckled.

"So what, you saying you can do that?" Mercury asked with a raised brow.

Wolf just deadpanned at the boy, before walking over to him, grabbing him by the arm, and began tossing him up like a rag doll repeatedly.

"H-hey! S-stop it! I'm getting sick!" Mercury shouted. The babies, as well as Emerald, just laughed at this.

"Excuse me! Pardon me! Coming through! Oops! Sorry Ares Xiao Long!" Ruby the messenger god passed by the Blond goddess of war who was polishing her golden gauntlets.

"Watch it, Rubes!" Ares took pride in her weapons and would not appreciate them getting dirty with anything other than the blood of her enemies.

Ruby and Yang were now confused, as Ruby turned to Wolf and Jinn. "What's up with the other versions of us?"

Jinn then went to answer. "Well Ruby, in that universe, you are the goddess of trade, wealth, luck, fertility, animal husbandry, sleep, language, thieves, and travel. You are one of the cleverest and most mischievous of the Olympian gods. As well as the patron of shepherds, invented the lyre, and was, above all, the herald and messenger of Mt. Olympus. You were even akin to a Grim Reaper, leading souls to the afterlife of the Greeks, the underworld." She explained.

Ruby was surprised by this. To think she was a message god, which made sense as she was really fast. But all those other things? It made her head spin. Though she thought the Grim Reaper was pretty cool, given her cloak and scythe, if not a little morbid.

Jinn then turned to Yang. "As for you-"

But then Wolf butt in. "Yang is the goddess of war or, more properly, the spirit of battle. She represents the distasteful aspects of brutal warfare and slaughter." He explained.

"W-what?! So I'm basically the bloody thug of the gods?!" Yang shouted in shock.

"Sounds about right." Weiss said with a smirk.

Yang's eyes turned red. "Watch it, ice queen!"

My point exactly." Weiss said with a smirk, making Yang pout.

"For you, Queen Salem!" Ruby held out a bouquet of flowers.

"Oh Ruby! You shouldn't have!" Salem had to admit, if she was still in the underworld, she would have hated a gift like this.

But needless to say, she appreciated all the small gestures now on Mt. Olympus.

"Well you know, I wanted to say hi to my new baby cousin!" Ruby sped over and patted little Arcules' head.

Ruby smiled proudly with a smug look. "Looks like I'm now older than Jaune!" but then she realized that he is her BABY cousin in that universe, and with that realization, she also realized that means she probably isn't who he will marry in that reality, which made her start to pout and cross her arms. When is she going to see a universe when she and him are together?

"Awwww, here, want a toy!" She held out a little toy scythe.

And as soon as he grabbed it he bopped her over the head with it, causing her to faceplant into the cloud floor.

"Oof!" She said as she pulled herself up from the floor.

"Wow…he's REALLY STRONG, he did that with a foam weapon…" Ruby was nursing a bump on her head now.

Everyone laughed at Jaune and what he did with a foam scythe. All except for Ruby, who didn't find getting knocked into the floor funny.

However, Juliet, seeing the foam scythe, started reaching for it, wanting her own. Saphron saw this, before turning to Ambrosius. "Do you think you can make some toys for the kids based on this viewing?"

Ambrosius let out a sigh. "Toys? For children? That doesn't really give any challenge to my talents." he complained, while secretly being glad he can make something peaceful. He waved his hands through the air, and made all three babies plush scythes like Jaune got. They smiled and giggled as they all began to play together.

Everyone cooed at how adorably the three babies just popped each other with the foam scythes. And since they were not as strong as Jaune on screen, it didn't really do anything.

Suddenly little Arcules reached for the lightning bolts on his fathers belt.

"Uh dear, I don't think he should be playing with those." Salem was worried for her son.

"Oh don't worry, he's a god, He'll be just fi-" Suddenly he saw his newborn stick it in his mouth and electrocute himself.

Salem tackled Oz out of his seat, and started choking him with the grip of a vice. Ozpin tried kicking and pulling to get her off him as Salem started shouting. "YOU LET MY SON EAT LIGHTNING?!"

June joined her in shouting. "WHAT KIND OF IDIOT ARE YOU?!"

Nimue and Nick had to start pulling them off him and calm them down before they killed Oz. "It's another world, Mama." Nimue told Salem as she held her close.

Nick began snuggling June to calm her down. "Jaune is a god, and will be fine."

Both women just huffed a bit, but started to calm down. Ozpin was trying to catch his breath, and rubbed his now bruised neck when he sat down.

The baby was frozen for a second before he spit out the bolt and it went flying towards Nora, The Norse Goddess of Lightning.

"I'm a god too!" Nora said excitedly.

Jinn chuckled before explaining. "Yes. Your counterpart is the goddess of thunder, fertility and hallowing. In most universes however, your counterpart is male, named Thor."

As she said this, Ambrosias decided to give some visual aid in the form of a painting depicting Thor in full armor. Everyone was shocked at how much he looked like Nora's dad, while Glynda was surprised how similar his name was to her old friend's nickname. Nora meanwhile just had the biggest smile ever.

And also Zeus's rival because she hated the fact that he was King of the gods in Greece while she was not the Queen of the Gods in her own country. Don't get her wrong, they were still friends, but she was determined to beat the old man one day.

And solidify her position as the strongest of all the gods.

Nora jumped up and stood on her seat, before shouting. "I WILL BE QUEEN OF THE GODS!" Ren let out a sigh, but smiled at his girlfriend nonetheless, as the babies giggled at how silly she was.

"Dang it! Don't tell me I have to compete with your son now!" Nora whined as she barely managed to deflect that thing!

"Nora? What are you doing here? Shouldn't you be in Asgard?" It was unusual for a Norse god or goddess to appear on Mt Olympus.

Nora had a confused look. "How unusual is it?"

Jinn gave a small shrug. "Well… usually gods couldn't go to other pantheons unless they were invited. Otherwise, it could cause war between the pantheons." This shocked everyone, and wondered how a war between gods would work, if gods can't die. (well maybe the Greek gods can't, but the norse…)

"I came by to say hello to your son, only to see him spit lightning!"

"What can I say Nora! He's a chip off the old block!"

"Hmmph, well anyways…." Nora came over to the baby.

"Hello little wolf!" She said as she wagged her finger in front of him.

Despite the fact she may have been a rival to the Greek God of Lightning, she still thought babies were cute.

Nora stood up from her seat. "Of course I think babies are cute!" she declared, pointing to her "niece and nephew" and "cousin". "Just look at these adorable little guys."

Ren smiled and chuckled. Nora really was a sucker for babies. He couldn't count how many times in their journeys together they stopped just because she saw a baby she wanted to play with.

"Here, this is for you. Maybe one day you can help me beat your father" She snuck a warhammer into his crib.

Ren sighed as he turned to his girlfriend. "Nora..." he said with a deadpan expression.

Nora looked to Ren with a VERY unhappy look. "I would NEVER put a weapon where a baby could get hurt!" she huffed, while looking angry at her Godly Version.

"Nora! You Nords and your warhammers, so uncivilized and barbaric! How could you give my son a warhammer?!" Zeus yelled as he pulled the warhammer out of the crib.

"Clearly he prefers a sword and shield!" He handed his son a Xiphos and Shield.

Only for his wife to smack both him and Nora over the head.

Salem, Juniper and Nimue looked at Oz with deadpan expressions on their faces. Ozpin noticed this, and sighed. "That is a different version of me, and not my idea." He told them, before turning to Nimue. "Why are you glaring at me?"

"I love seeing how happy babies can be!" she responded. Many were seriously confused how this could be the personality of the spirit of destruction.

"Didn't you have something ELSE planned for our son?" Salem glared as she would not approve of her baby having access to weapons at his age.

Salem nodded before turning to Ambrosius. "I had better not see you make ACTUAL weapons for the babies." she said with a glare.

Ambrosius gulped. "O-of course not, I would never do anything like that…" he said nervously, making her smile at him.

"Good boy." She replied.

"Oh by the way!" Zeus remembered he had a gift for his son.

"Let's see, a little bit of this, that, and wait, that's not right…" Zeus was trying to make this perfect.

"Ah! There we go!" He started to form the clouds to where it was starting to form an odd shape.

Everyone was just confused, as they didn't really know what to think. Some thought it kinda looked like a horse if you squint, but then there was the fact it had a few too many angles and appendages.

"Annndddd, wait for it." He held the mass of clouds in front of his son.

"Waaaiiit for it…" He said as Jaune touched it.

Only to reveal what appeared to be a newborn horse with white fur and a blue mane and wings.

Everyone was caught off guard seeing this, not expecting a horse with wings. Juliet meanwhile, just started squealing as soon as she saw this, and started waving her arms around while holding her scythe. "Horsie, horsie, horsie!" she squealed.

Ambrosius then had an idea, as he waved his arms and made a padded rocking horse for each baby with their parents hair color. Adrian's has a blond mane and chocolate body, Juliet's has a Chocolate Mane and Blond Body, and Chance has a red maned blond bodied rocking horse.

All the babies smiled as they crawled over to the rocking horses, and began riding them, giggling as they did. This made everyone gush at how adorable it was.

"There we go, your very own pegasus!" Arcules must have been smart for his age, because his eyes lit up as soon as he saw his new pet.

Right before he headbutted it out of joy.

Everyone either deadpanned, or laughed at this. Either they thought that ruined the mood, or added to it.

Surprisingly this just endeared the young pegasus to the young god even more as they started cuddling.

All the girls cooed even more, while Saphron was using her foot to rock Juliet's horse nice and gently as the little girl giggled, enjoying her wooden horse.

Nora meanwhile, turned to Ren. "Renny, we should try that!" she said excitedly.

Ren deadpanned at her. "Nora, no."

"Aw! Come on!"

"No."

"Ugh, too sweet!" Ares looked away as she didn't want people to know she secretly was cooing on the inside at how cute it was.

"AWWWWW!" Nora didn't even try to hide it.

"It's too cute!" Yang gushed. Nora nodded as she pulled out a camera, and took pictures of baby Jaune snuggling with Pegasus. It was too cute not to after all.

"Ugh, Good Grief!" A voice said from the shadows.

"I mean, can't I come up to visit one time and not have to deal with the overabundance of cute stuff?" Cinder, The second Goddess of Death said as she walked out of the shadows.

Her hair was ablaze with the red fires of Hades, she was dressed in a dark robe similar to her mothers but with a far more revealing bust, whereas Salem had her dress showing off more of her legs.

Chance began to giggle and clap his hands, before looking up at Glynda. "Sissy pwetty Mama Gyn!"

Glynda smiled with a light chuckle. "She certainly is." she agreed.

Cici just smiled and blushed that her baby brother thinks she is pretty.

"My daughter! I thought you said you wouldn't make it!" Salem gave her daughter a hug.

"Well you know, I have quite a bit of work since YOU decided to play house wife." Cinder mumbled as she had never approved of her mother leaving the underworld. Especially with the amount of responsibility that now rested on her shoulders.

Salem and Cinder were at first happy about their relationship, before seeing that it's not a very good relationship. That… was honestly disappointing for both of them.

Salem sighed, before turning to Cici. "Well… I'm glad that we are closer than our godly counterparts." she said with a small smile, making Cici smile a bit as well.

"Yeah. I'm glad too, granny." Cici replied happily.

"Okay so where is the brat?" She walked over to the cradle.

"Huh doesn't look like much." She said as she pointed at the baby.

Which was a mistake. Because as soon as that finger was in reach, the baby's natural instincts were to grab hold and not let go. Combined with the strength of his father, Cinder was in pain.

Everyone winced seeing this, as they knew exactly what that led to. And it was not pretty. They were pretty sure they could see her fingers snapping in places.

"OW! OW! OW! OW! OW! GET HIM OFF!" Cinder was waving her little half brother around as he continued to laugh and giggle at his sister's misfortune.

"Oh, he just wants to be close to you, lighten up!" Salem was glad her son was so glad to see his sister.

Salem sighed sadly. "It looks like that Cinder and her brother won't be very close…"

Chance, seeing that the baby on screen is related to his Sissy, started to pout. Glynda noticed this. "What's wrong?" she asked her nephew.

"Sissy my Sissy!" he huffed.

Cici cooed at this, and came over to hug him. She looked up to Glynda with a pouty face. "Can I hold him?"

Glynda smiled at her. "Of course you can.

Cici smiled as she cuddled Chance. "My baby brother." she giggled as she hugged him and rubs her cheek against his, making him giggle

"HE'S CRUSHING MY FINGER!" She said as she managed to get free and Jaune went back to his crib.

"It's so unfair, he gets super strength, and I get stuck down in Hades…." She mumbled as she hated how things turned out.

"Come on Cinder! Join us! There's plenty of food to go around!" Zeus offered his stepdaughter.

"Yeah, sorry, but I gotta get back to work, you know, because SOMEBODY left this important job to me?" Cinder gave a glance towards Salem.

Salem sighed at this. "It looks like my counterpart could have handled passing everything over to her Cinder better…" After not hearing anything from Cici on the matter, she looks over only to see Cici playing peekaboo with Chance.

Chance just giggled from it, as he had a lot of fun. Neo made sure to take a picture of this adorable scene, and put it in a scrap booklet she planned on filling with adorable pictures of her cousin.

The truth was that the two while still family were not on the best of terms at the moment. With Salem turning more noble and gaining more happiness. Cinder was left to pick up the work where her mother left off. So she had become rather bitter despite her mother's attempt to invite her to everything. It also didn't help that Cinder was still in her moody teen angst phase of Godhood. So the underworld despite being a stressful work environment was also a paradise for a moody teen.

Es just nodded. "It really is paradise for a death god during the moody phase as a teen." she replied, making everyone go wide eyed at this.

Wolf sighed. "She IS the Goddess of Death in your world." he reminded.

"You could stay a bit longer, your little brother seems happy to see you!" Salem held up the smiling baby to Cinder's face.

"Gah gah!" Only for the baby to stick his fingers in her nose and pull.

"AAAHHHH!"

"HA HA HA HA!" All the other gods and goddesses were laughing at the misfortune of the young princess.

Everyone winced at this, as they could tell that, that Cinder won't be happy at being laughed at. Roman however, was laughing a bit, before Jackie smacked him on the back of the head, before she gave him a look that made him behave. Neo smirked at him, and waved her arm like she was cracking a whip. This just made Roman have an annoyed look.

"I'm leaving!" She then left in a pillar of fire.

"I'm sorry dear, I wish she would grow out of this." Zeus said as he patted his wife's back.

"Oh don't worry about her, when I was her age I laid whole cities to waste and slaughtered millions. The thing about being a goddess of death is that the teenage years of your godhood are always…..moody…"

Es let out a sigh. "She isn't wrong. I may have… created a few plagues, droughts, and famines during my worst days back as a teenager…" she said in embarrassment.

"Oh, that reminds me." Wolf chuckled as he pulled out a picture. "Look what I found." The picture was of Es in her god form during her teenage years. She was wearing a black crop top with a skull and crossbones on it, black spiked leather bracelets, pierced ears, and she was flipping off whoever was taking the picture.

Everyone went wide eyed at this, while Es let out a blood curdling shriek as she had an embarrassed blush. "H-HOW DID YOU GET THAT?!" she screamed as she tried to get the picture away from Wolf.

"I have my ways." Wolf chuckled.

The truth was that Salem and Ozma used to be mortal enemies, the two were constantly at war. It wasn't until one final battle where they had accidentally been stripped of their clothing and locked in a wrestling match that….something else happened that led to the current situation they were in now.

Everyone went wide eyed at this. Who would have thought that the way to bring about world peace was for the two of them to… well… fuck.

That thought soon ended, when Nimue gave her exact thoughts. "Ew ew ew ew ew!" She repeated over and over again. "I did not need an image of Mama and Papa having sex in my head!" She screamed.

This made everyone, most of all Salem and Ozpin, blush, and her sisters to laugh at her reaction.

"You know, maybe we should give our son a few siblings of his own." Zeus said to his wife as Salem only grinned.

"Well, Summer did give me some rather…unique tips." She flirted with her husband.

Summer leaned over to Salem. "I actually have a book if you need tips." She informed.

Salem thought about it for a second. "I'll keep that in mind."

Qrow then patted Ozpin's shoulder. "You have my condolences."

"What is that supposed to mean?" Ozpin asked Qrow. Qrow said nothing and just kept patting Oz's shoulder.

"Later, right now it's our son's day."

BACK IN THE UNDERWORLD

Glynda and her sisters were then seen sitting in an urn. "If there was one God you didn't want to get steamed up, it was Cinder." Glynda explained. "Because she had an evil plan."

Yang snickered at the steamed up comment.

Weiss deadpanned. "You're kidding, right? You're focused on a pun, when they told us she has a plan?"

"Well can you blame me? She has hair made of fire and it said she gets steamed up." Yang chuckled.

"Oh trust me, honey. This girl is no laughing matter." Ciel told Yang, as she began to sing.

"She ran the uuuunderwooooorld!"

"Oh come on, the underworld isn't that bad." Es scoffed. Everyone then looked at her with raised brows. She noticed their looks, and shrinked in her seat. "I mean… I tried to make it as peaceful as possible…" she said nervously.

"About as peaceful as a funeral." Wolf replied.

"It was… a little depressing at times…" Summer added.

Es groaned as she crossed her arms.

Cinder was then seen on the ferry across the river styx. But then some souls tried to reach up to her, only for her to blast them with a fireball, and then blew on her finger as smoke came off it.

Chance giggled and clapped seeing this. "Sissy go BOOM!" he said cutely. This made Cici smile and gush at how cute he was.

"Hmm… we really need to get him some fireworks when we get home." Neo spoke. Roman and Glynda sighed, but couldn't help but agree.

"But thought the dead were dull and uncouth.

"WHAT?!" Es screached. "How could she possibly find dead people dull?! They tell the best stories!"

Everyone was confused by this, only for Jinn to speak up. "She really loves to listen to what the dead have to say. She especially loves listening to dead warriors tell their adventures and battles. And also enjoys listening to poets, artists and scholars." everyone was surprised by this.

She was as mean as she was ruthless, and that's the gospel truth!

She had a plaaaaaan to shake things up.

And thaaaaats the gospel truuuuuuth!"

Cici wasn't even paying attention to what was happening as she was too busy tickling Chance's tummy, making the little baby giggle.

Everyone looked at her, before looking at Cindy. They kept looking back and forth, before deciding that Cinder is definitely a Cindy.

"Gaghhhh!" Cinder screamed as she stopped to feed Cerberus on her way back home.

The giant three headed dog while vicious and hungry was actually more like a puppy, which was odd when you consider the fact he was supposed to guard the gates of Hades. She was trying to make it more vicious but all attempts had been unsuccessful so far.

Adrian and Juliet went starry eyed seeing Cerberus. "Big puppy, BIG PUPPY!" They cheered.

This made Wolf smirk as he had an idea and whistled. In came Cupcake wearing a harness with Zwie and Togo acting as her other heads.

The two babies squealed as they went over and hugged the dogs, who barked happily. Ruby, Weiss, Yang, Glynda, Weiss, and many others gushed at the cute scene before them.

At least it still kept the façade up when it wasn't her or any other gods, so he still scared the mortals.

"MERCURY!" She called out to one of her servants.

"COMING!" She heard a voice yell out as she heard banging noises and a large shadow start to come around the corner.

Mercury smirked, thinking this version of him must be a badass beast.

Only to reveal a tiny imp with a human head and a tail.

Everyone burst out laughing, while Merc was just sitting there with an eye twitching. Saying he was pissed was a massive understatement.

Emerald smirked at him, and couldn't help but snicker at his misfortune.

"EMERALD!" She called out to her other servant.

'Oh! Right away Mistress!" Another voice called out, as a sexy silhouette of a shadow appeared.

Cici had a massive blush spread across her face seeing this. That very fact made Emerald smile, seeing what a possibly sexy version of herself could do to Cinder.

Only to reveal another imp with a human head and green horns.

Emerald had a shocked and embarrassed look, and it only grew when Mercury began to burst out laughing. He thought it was only fair they both had to be a pair of little freaks.

Chance meanwhile, had a confused look. He looked at the Emerald on screen, and then the one in the theater, going back and forth. He eventually looked to Cici. "Sissy, dat wea'y Emmy?" He asked her.

Cici just gave a small giggle. "Yes. That is."

Emerald was now blushing red as a tomato. But she also smiled at Chance using the same nickname Cici did for her.

"Where are the sisters of fate?"

"Oh they've been here for the past hour." Mercury said with pride.

"WHAAATTT?!" Cinder burst into flames in anger as she yelled at him. "THEY'VE BEEN HERE AND YOU DIDN'T TELL ME! UGGGHHH!" She threw Mercury into the River Styx.

Everyone began laughing at Mercury's misfortune again. While he was just slack jawed at how he was basically that Cinder's punching bag. Emerald was once again smirking at him.

"Emerald, go save your dumb ass brother." Cinder said as she calmed down and the flames started to recede back into her body.

Emerald's eyes went wide at this, hearing that she and Mercury of all people were siblings.

Mercury just looked at her in thought. "I'm older, so that makes me the big brother." he told her.

"Excuse me?! Why is that what's on your mind?!" Emerald shouted, only for her to get annoyed when Merc shrugged.

"Er, Yes Mistress!" Emerald dived in to save her dumbass brother.

It was a well known fact that he pissed Cinder off at least five times a day.

"Must be a slow day then." Cindy remarked. This made Emerald laugh, as she couldn't help but agree.

Cinder slicked her raven hair back as she walked up to three women, well more like two old hags who were arguing over who to share the one eye with.

All three babies let out small eeps seeing them, before trying to hide as best they could, thinking they were scary. The parent's, along with Cici, couldn't help but coo at this, before doing their best to comfort the babies.

"Ah! Harriet! Vernal! Neo! So good to see you all again!" She greeted, with false enthusiasm.

"Harriet, are you starting to grow some hair back?" Cinder asked, looking at the patchy mess that was Harriet's head.

"Looks good!"

It did not look good.

Winter suddenly burst out laughing. Everyone was extremely confused, save for Penny. "Sister, what exactly is it that you find so funny?" Weiss asked.

Winter just gave a chuckle. "That there is Harriet. A… co worker of mine who thinks very highly of herself, and has an ego the size of Atlas itself. She can honestly be a bit of a pain, given how she tends to look down on others she sees as beneath her, and can be a bit of a brown noser."

Qrow wanted to say how that sounded like how Winter used to be, but kept his mouth shut. Then a different thought came to mind. "I'm guessing ol' Jimmy enjoys having her around then?"

Winter then sighed. "Oh he does."

"Ah! Vernal! Changed skin products? You don't have nearly as many wrinkles." In truth, she hated having to butter up the first two sisters of fate.

Raven went wide eyed. "WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO MY ADOPTED DAUGHTER?!" She screeched.

Yang couldn't help but get annoyed. But she also laughed as she couldn't help but find her "sister" misfortune in looks hilarious

"And Neo….." Cinder turned to the last sister of fate.

The only normal looking one. While the first two were old, gangly, and looked like something you would scrape off the side of the road after it had been run over five times, Neo was the youngest of the sisters of fate, and actually had both of her eyes, but the problem was that she couldn't speak as a result and had to communicate with sign language.

But considering how much it pissed her sisters off, she loved it.

Roman gave a small chuckle. "Well, aren't you a little troll."

"Guess some things are just a constant." Neo said with a smirk.

"Look, you know why we're here Cinder." Harriet gasped out as she sounded like a chain smoker.

"You wanted us to read your future, and we will." Vernal sounded like she was hacking up a lung.

"Ah yes, so tell me, what about my plans, do they work?" Cinder smiled as this was the one way for her to know what the future holds.

"Welp, can't wait to see how she fucks that up." Wolf stated.

"What do you mean? She is going to know the future. How could she mess that up?" Mercury asked.

"Simple. She is going to see some kind of obstacle in her plan. She makes a plan to get rid of it, only to put it smack dab in her path. Classic evil dumbass move." Wolf replied. "That universe's Nora's dad would be a prime contender."

Nora was surprised her dad in that universe did something like that.

Pythia sighed. "Sadly, it's more common than you think."

In reality, she was planning on taking over Olympus for herself, enslaving the rest of the gods, and ruling over Earth as its new master, creating things in her own image. The problem was that she needed to know if she would succeed, if there was one false move, one wrong decision, she could risk mayhem being unleashed upon her. Especially since she was just one goddess. One goddess against the entire pantheon of gods and demigods on Olympus? It would not go well.

Cici began to give an evil chuckle. "Ooh, a version of me that knows what we deserve." She said with a smirk. Everyone just rolled their eyes at her.

"Well, we'll be honest, it would work…."

"YEEESSS!" Cinder was overjoyed.

"YES!" Cindy cheered alongside her counterpart.

"Except for one problem." Vernal hacked out as she showed Cinder the vision.

"Excuse me?" Cindy asked, taken out of her celebration.

"The stars will align, freeing the Grimm from their earthly prison, they will rampage across the planet, causing mayhem and destruction, the chaos will force the gods to fight back, while they focus on fighting them, you will destroy them from the inside, one by one they will fall by your hand." Visions played out in Cinder's head.

"And you will rule over all of creation, the heavens and the earth, the skies and the dirt, but there is one thing that could change, a determined victory there will be, if only the fault you choose to see." Harriet continued off where her sister started.

"If Arcules should fight….you will….fail." An image of Zeus's son riding into battle on a pegasus was the final thing Cinder saw.

Everyone went wide eyed at the declaration that only with Jaune's aid can the gods win. It was hard to believe that just one man, even if he was a god, especially since it was a battle involving gods, could turn the tide.

Cindy meanwhile, was not taking it very well as her eye was twitching. "w-what…"

"WHHHHHAAAAAAATTTTTT?!" She screamed out in rage again as the flames shot out of her body. "You mean to tell me, out of all the years of planning, all the years of being careful not to show my true intentions, AND I GET STOPPED BY THAT DAMN BRAT!" Cinder was raging as Emerald walked in with Mercury.

"YOU HAVE TO BE SHITTING ME!" Cindy roared.

"Mistress, I got hi-" Suddenly she was distracted as she saw Cinder grab Mercury by the throat and start beating him into a wall.

"OW! OW! OW! OW! OW! OW!" He said in between breaths as he was getting his face smashed into the wall.

Chance and the other babies were giggling as they saw this. They thought it was funny seeing the imp version of Mercury getting beat up like a cartoon character.

Merc meanwhile, wass visibly fighting to not shout.

Emerald smirked at him. "You doing good there?"

"I'm. Fine." he said through gritted teeth,

"…..I am so glad I'm the favorite minion." Emerald winced as she saw the beating her brother was getting.

"Okay, I'm cool! I'm fine! I am fine…" Cinder said as the flames around here began to die down and return to their usual state.

Everyone was surprised by Cinders hair flames being a physical tell for her temper.

"Kinda reminds me of your semblance, Yang." Ruby pointed out.

"What do you mean?" Yang asked her in confusion.

"No she is kinda right. Whenever you get mad your hair lights on fire." Weiss pointed out.

"O-oh… right." Yang said with a blush.

"Well bye now, it's time for our spa day! I'm having a wrinkle treatment done!" Vernal croaked out as she rubbed her face.

"Not like it will help…" Cinder mumbled under her breath.

"Those hags need a spa week. Hell, possibly a spa century. A day is not going to fix all that ugly." Cindy remarked.

"Watch it! That's my adopted daughter!" Raven growled in anger. Yang just grumbled a bit and crossed her arms.

"Huh, could you speak up? My hearing is bad."

"Nothing."

She walked out of the room and ordered her minions along with her. Emerald who was hopping to it, and Mercury who was limping slowly behind them.

"Okay, so basically I need to kill a god…." Cinder mumbled as her minions followed her.

Es then took out a notepad hearing this. Everyone just looked at her in confusion. Eventually she noticed the stares at her. "Oh, don't mind me. I'm just.. Writing down some ideas from my brother." Everyone just shrugged and nodded at this, as they felt that was fair enough.

Salem and June meanwhile, were glaring at the Cinder on screen. They did not want any harm to come to their baby.

"But Mistress, you can't kill a-" Mercury was cut off as he took a fireball to the face.

"I KNOW!" She yelled as she got angry again and burst into flames.

"Fucking bitch…" Mercury mumbled under his breath.

"What was that?" Cindy growled.

"Oh bite me, you overgrown reflection!" Mercury retorted. Making Cindy even angrier.

"But you must have a way to do It right! After all! You're as brilliant as you are beautiful!" Emerald quickly calmed her down the only way she knew how.

Being a kiss ass.

Mercury snickered at this. "True to form, eh Em?"

"I-I am not a kiss ass!" Emerald shouted.

"Oh please. You could probably find a picture of yourself under the word kiss ass in the dictionary."

Emerald huffed at this. But then, Cici smiled as she leaned towards Emerald while covering chances eyes, and kissing her on the cheek. Emerald had a massive blush on her face as Cici giggled. "You don't have to be a suck up to be liked, Emmy."

"O-okay…" replied a very flustered Emerald.

"Of course I know how!" She opened up a door to a room that looked like something straight out of a mad genius lab.

"Luckily Andromeda's potion making came in handy." She said as she picked up a pink vial with a skull on it.

"This potion can strip any god of immortality, without this Arcules will be vulnerable, and then, you can finish the job." She passed the vial to Emerald.

Salem and June were now pissed. The fact that this Cinder was actually considering killing a baby made them want to throttle her.

Es however was scribbling in her notes, to make sure she keeps that in mind for her brother.

"But Mistress, if you have a potion that can turn gods mortal why not do it to all the gods and then taking over olympus will be e-" Mercury again took a fireball to the face Mercury was again smacked in the face.

Cindy just scoffed. "Killing the brat is the only way to make sure he won't win."

Mercury let out a snort. "Are you sure about that? Using the potion would have allowed you to not need to wait, since all the gods would be mortal. So you could just kill them." He explained.

Cindy stared at him, before getting up and walking over to a wall in her reflexion, and started to face plant going "stupid" over and over again. Everyone just chuckled at her realizing this, and how Mercury had the better idea.

"SHUT UP AND DO AS I SAY!" She roared as both her minions scurried off.

LATER ON OLYMPUS

Salem was currently sleeping with her husband, her body encased in a black revealing nightgown as she cuddled next to the large god of the storms. They had fallen asleep after an intense hour of lovemaking. Needless to say, the tips from Summer really helped.

Salem was blushing while thinking of ideas, while Oz was incredibly flustered.

Summer leaned to Salem. "I'll be sure to give you plenty of tips."

"Thank you." Salem smiled.

Nimue blushed hard. "Oh my God, why?!" She squealed, not wanting to see this.

Pythia and Jinn chuckled. "You sure, sis? I'm sure you used to at one point." Pythia teased.

"Shut up!" Nimue shouted.

CRASH KRACK

They both woke up to the noise.

"Uh, what's going on?" Ozma woke up and was feeling groggy.

Salem giggled slightly at this, before turning to Ozpin. "You were always like that whenever the girls woke up at night."

Ozpin gave a small sigh. "I never enjoy waking up. Why do you think I drink so much coffee?"

"Because you are an addict?" Salem responded, making him roll his eyes.

June meanwhile just smiled. "Nick was the same whenever he woke up."

Summer and Raven smiled with her, and nodded in agreement. They could relate as Tai and Qrow took care of the girls at night. So they woke up a lot at night.

Es just sighed happily. "My husband always took care of the girls. So my sleep was never interrupted."

The girls were all surprised at this, never knowing their dads all took over caring for them when they woke up at night as babies.

"I don't know, sounds like it was coming from-" Salem's eyes widened when she realized where the sound came from.

"SAVE THE BABY!" Salem shouted at the top of her lunges.

"DON'T JUST SIT THERE!" June joined in.

Cici had an awkward look, hoping she wasn't going to get in trouble for what her counterpart was doing. Of course if they were going to blame someone in the theater, it would be Cindy, given the glares she was receiving. Which made Cici feel a bit better.

"ARCULES!" She yelled as she ran out of bed.

Her husband soon realized why she sounded so worried and immediately woke up and was as sharp as a sword and ran off after her.

They opened the door to their son's nursery only to find that their worst fears had been confirmed. The room was a mess, pottery was smashed to pieces, Pegasus was laying on the ground with a pot on his head trying to shake it off, multiple toys were thrown on the ground and broken, and the worst part of all, was that their baby was gone.

"Damn, they must have had a hard time with the kid if that place was trashed." Mercury noted.

"Well he does have super strength." Ruby noted.

"Or maybe those little imps just trashed his room because they are dicks." Wolf noted.

Mercury and Emerald looked at each other. They would never trash a baby's room intentionally. Sure Mercury was an assassin. But he knew where to draw the line. And Emerald was mostly just a thief to survive.

Arcules had been kidnapped.

Salem and June both glared daggers at Cindy, Mercury, and Emerald. "Jaune had better be safe." June demanded

"Or they will never find your bodies when we are done." Salem finished.

Mercury and Emerald gulped nervously at this, as they were both not keen on being victim to those two. Cindy on the other hand just rolled her eyes at the threat.

"NO!" Salem yelled as she searched the room hoping that he had just been rowdy in the middle of the night. "WHERE IS HE?! WHERE IS MY SON?!" Her eyes glowed blood red as she looked towards her husband.

"Well, that certainly hasn't changed." Ozpin sighed. Salem was definitely a helicopter mom way back when. She even threatened to burn down the house of a kid that picked on their youngest daughter. With the kid and their parents still inside. Took a lot for Ozpin to talk her out of it. Mostly buying her new dresses.

"I will NOT apologize!" Salem proclaimed.

And his rage was starting to reveal itself as she could hear thunder roaring.

"WHERE IS HE?!" Zeus roared out and screamed so loud that lightning was cracking all around him.

Salem's cries of anguish caused volcanoes to erupt. People were terrified as they knew that the gods must have been furious if this was happening. What could have possibly happened to upset them this much.

Everyone went wide eyed at how their anger and grief could affect the world like that.

Es sighed. "That kind of effect is very common among stronger gods who let loose with their emotions." shen explained. It was a very discomforting thing for everyone to think about.

They all then turned to Wolf. When he noticed, he just shrugged. "Eh, I guess I could."

"SHIT SHIT SHIT!" Emerald and Mercury were in bat form flying away from the scene.

All the mothers, Glynda, Cici, and Neo turned to glare at Mercury and Emerald for cussing Infront of the babies.

Emerald began to shrink in her seat, while Merc was basically used to this at this point.

"WE ARE DEAD IF THEY CATCH US!" Mercury yelled as he was regretting his decision.

"Well let's land already!" Suddenly they hit a tree as they dropped Arcules.

And that was the last straw watching them just drop the baby on the ground. Salem and June jumped into the air and lunged to stangle Emerald and Mercury. Or at least… they were about to, before Nick and Nimue grabbed them to keep them from doing so.

"LET ME GO NICK! THEY NEED TO LEARN A LESSON!" June demanded.

"Sweetie, calm down, it's not them!" Nick insisted.

"Yeah, mama! You need to calm down!" Nimue told Salem, who was snarling like an animal as she swung her arms in a claw-like fashion at Emerald and Mercury.

"Uh oh…" Emerald looked down at the baby who started to cry and scream as he was rolling on the ground.

"Crap! Crap! Crap!" She yelled as they went down.

"Hurry! Give him the vial before his screams alert Zeus to what happened!" She panicked as Mercury got the vial out.

Cici then turned to Mercury. "I hope you wouldn't do something like that in our world?"

Mercury had an annoyed look at her. "Hey, I know where to draw the line. I'm not like some people. *cough* Dad *cough*."

"...fine…" Cici sighed.

"I still don't think this is morally ri-"

"GIVE IT TO HIM!" Emerald yelled as her brother shoved it into the baby's mouth.

Arcules, thinking it must have been snacktime, began to drink it. It tasted sweet! Was it some special kind of milk?

All the babies saw baby Jaune get a bottle, and turned to the adults they were sitting on the laps of. "Dirsty!" they all said, diffusing the tension everyone was feeling.

"I got this one." Ambrosias said as he created bottles of juice for the babies, who all happily began to drink it. All the mothers thought they were just so adorable, and gushed at it.

"Well, at least he stopped crying." Emerald said as the baby drank greedily.

"Look! He's not glowing!"

Sure enough, the aura that had surrounded the boy was starting to fade, his immortality was starting to go away. And with that, he was now vulnerable to attack.

Everyone watched in awe of how the effect from God to mortal looks on Arcules. Es began to take plenty of notes of this as she watched.

"Okay, now we just have to kill him and be done with it!" Emerald got a knife ready.

"Are you sure? I still don't feel good about this, besides we have to make sure he drinks every single last drop."

Ruby then had a thought cross her mind. "So… what would happen if he doesn't drink it all?"

Wolf and Jinn then both spoke up. "Watch and see." they said at the same time. Ruby just pouted at this answer.

"WHO IS OUT THERE?!" A voice yelled as it startled the two and they dropped the bottle and hid behind a tree thinking it was the god of the storms.

Nick noticed how familiar that voice seemed to be. He raised a brow at this, thinking he had a feeling who that voice was.

The bottle was flung into the air and shattered into a million pieces, a small bit of the potion spilling on the ground.

Everyone was relieved to see he didn't drink the last drop. "So… he didn't drink all of it. But what does that mean?" Yang asked in confusion.

"I guess we'll just have to watch." Weiss replied.

"Finally someone gets it!" Wolf shouted in annoyance.

Only for a strange couple to turn around the corner. A blonde man wearing a black and gray robe carrying a torch. And a younger woman wearing a black and white robe with blond hair and blue eyes. As they got closer, they saw what was causing the commotion.

Qrow laughed seeing this. "Damn Nick, you look old." Nick just gave him an annoyed look.

Just then, Jinn spoke up. "To be clear, he is a farmer in a world without Aura, so his body has taken more of a beating than in our own world." Nick gave Qrow a smirk at this.

"Nicholas? Is that what I think it is?" She asked as the light from the torch revealed the truth.

"A baby?!" She gasped and immediately picked him up.

June was in lala land cooing over the baby. It has been so long since she got to hold Jaune as a baby. She missed it so much.

"What kind of irresponsible cretin would leave a child out here in the cold?!" She started to wrap the baby in a blanket.

"Good idea. He must be freezing on that mountain." June nodded at her counterpart.

"Yes, we wouldn't want the poor thing to catch a cold." Salem agreed

The kid itself saw a new person and immediately started playing with her face and her glasses. Which earned him giggles as she started to coo and comfort the baby. She couldn't believe someone would just leave him like this out here!

"There's no footprints leading away from here…" Nicholas said to his wife as it seemed odd that there was no evidence he had been dropped here by his parents.

Everyone was stunned that Nick was looking for footprints. Though it made sense that he would try to find any trace of who Jaune belonged to. June just pouted however, hoping her counterpart would keep him.

"Oh, he's so cute!" His wife couldn't help but admire the baby.

"Now Juniper, we have to find his parents."

"But Nicholas! For all we know his parents could be the ones who left him here!"

"NEVER!" Salem shouted.

"I know that, Aunt Salem. You would never NEVER abandon your children." June replied.

Salem looked stunned at her new nickname, before she started smiling at her "niece".

"June…." He was worried she was getting too attached already.

"Come on! We talked about having a child for years!"

"Yes, but not one we might be stealing."

"I call it saving!"

"EXACTLY!" June shouted.

Saphron just then realized what was said a second ago. "Hold on, why didn't they have any kids?"

Before Wolf could answer, Jinn butt in and spoke up. "This version of June and Nick are not as fertile as their counterparts. That can happen in some universes. Sometimes a person can be an only child in one universe due to parents having a hard time having a baby. In others, they have a whole bunch of kids from it being easy for them."

Everyone wasn't expecting that kind of answer, though it certainly explained it.

"Hmmm…Arcules…. interesting name…" He read the medallion around his neck.

Meanwhile Emerald and Mercury knew they had to finish this, they couldn't let the couple take the baby home or else they would be in for a world of hurt. Thinking they knew what to do, they transformed into highly venomous snakes, well, Mercury did so reluctantly, he wasn't very keen on killing a baby. Especially since this baby was strong enough to break their necks.

Merc started mumbling. "I'm not my father… I'd never stoop so low I'd kill a kid…" everyone who heard that went wide eyed, seeing that he REALLY hated the idea of hurting kids.

Their shadows crept closer and closer towards the couple.

Sure, they would have to kill them too.

Emerald and Mercury shrank down when everyone started glaring at them. They felt really nervous in that situation. Like they were going to be in for a world of pain if something happened to baby Hercules.

After all, if the gods saw a couple screaming about a baby that was killed it might alert the gods to what they had done.

Closer and closer they crept. And then they sprang forth fangs bared ready to kill.

"Oh my!" Juniper said as the snakes appeared.

They lunged forward for the couple.

Nick then glared at the two misfit minions with a look of absolute rage. "If anything happens to my wife, you will regret it!" he shouted.

Mercury and Emerald nodded nervously at this, as they both felt like they might piss themselves in fear.

"Gah gah!" The baby got a smile on his face as he grabbed the two snakes.

"GAH!" Emerald yelled out in pain as Arcules had a vice grip.

"OH IT HURTS!" Mercury felt like he was going to die in the first few seconds.

"Da da!" The baby started to smash the two's faces into the ground.

Everyone started laughing at Arcules basically beating up Emerald and Mercury. Who were now hiding their faces in their hands. They were glad they didn't kill the kid. But they were embarrassed that they were getting their asses kicked by a literal infant. Sure he had super strength. But that didn't make them feel any better about it.

"OH GOD NOT AGAIN!" Mercury squeaked out as he was being pile drived into the dirt.

Emerald however had never been as abused as her brother, so this was something completely new to her, and suddenly she understood why her brother hated being the hated sibling in Cinder's minion group. And all she could think was 'OH DEAR ZEUS THE PAIN!'

Chance started pouting at this. "Bab Gopher! No huwt my Emmy!" he shouted.

Emmy was surprised by this, but when it wore off, she began to coo at him and tickle him. "Aw, thank you, Chance!" she smiled as she pulled him into a hug, which he gladly returned.

Everyone else meanwhile started laughing, though some were confused by something.

"Who is Gopher?" Glynda asked.

Jinn decided to answer. "Gopher is Chance's way of saying Godfather." she explained. This made them realize he was yelling at baby Jaune, which had led to more laughter.

Yang began to chuckle. "I am so not letting him live this down."

"Chance never stops calling him that." Pythia added with a smirk.

Glynda sighed with a chuckle. "I hope that isn't the case. Would be awkward trying to explain."

Arcules was smiling the whole time, thinking this was a new toy for him to smash. Seeing that the two snakes were flexible, he started to tie them into knots.

"OH GOD! MY SPLEEN!"

"MY LUNGS!"

Emerald and Mercury both cringed in empathetic pain for their counterparts. It was not fun seeing themselves turned into pretzels like that.

Both the minions cried out as they could not believe they were being beaten by an infant of all things! They could handle the abuse from Cinder, but this was something new. IT WAS A MERE CHILD! Arcules smiled and laughed at his handiwork as he managed to turn them into a pretzel. But he smelled something funny about the snakes and it made his nose feel funny. So he started to swing them over his head. Around and around and then-

"AAAAAHHHHHH!" He launched them through the air as they flew miles away.

Half the audience was on the floor laughing now, with June smirking smugly. "That's my son." she said proudly.

Salem then cleared her throat. "Excuse me?"

"You know what I mean." June said as she rolled her eyes. Before they both smiled at each other and laughed.

Only for the couple to look at the baby they had found, stunned at what he did.

"Nicholas….."

"Yes honey?"

"We're keeping him!"

"No argument there…."

"Only an idiot would argue about that." Nick said plainly.

"Hehe, yeah. Who would say no to a super strong baby." Qrow chuckled.

"Besides, who wouldn't want that cutie?" Summer asked with a giggle. She then leaned over to Ruby. "My grandbabies will be so cute." she whispered, making Ruby blush, but smile.

The baby only giggled as his new parents took him home. Unaware that his parents back on the mountain were now grieving for him.

June and Salem couldn't help but coo at how adorable baby Jaune was.

Nimue giggled. "Cousin Jaune is such a cute baby." she said happily. June and Salem smiled at how she already saw Jaune as family.

Glynda and her sisters, with sad expressions, were once again seen as she spoke. "It was tragic. Oz led all the gods on a frantic search."

"I could have found him fast!" Ruby said confidently.

"He was found sweetie. But by the time they found the baby, it was too late." Becky said, looking down, close to weeping.

"I'm sorry Zeus…." Ruby said as she had found their son.

"What? What's wrong?"

"Whoever took your son, we found him, but…" Salem cut her off.

"But what?!" Salem asked through gritted teeth. Everyone was nervous at how angry she was getting.

"But what?! I want my son back!" She yelled as Ruby shrunk a bit at those red eyes.

"They made him mortal…." Suddenly Salem's eyes went wide with horror.

"What does that matter?! He is still my son!" Salem shouted in anger.

"No…." She fell to her knees as Zeus tried his best to comfort his wife.

"Who did it?"

"We don't know, but I can tell you he's safe, a farmer and his wife found them."

Salem smiled at her niece. "I'm glad that he was found by a responsible person...and Nicholas."

"Hey!" Nick proclaimed in offense to that.

"You're the one that neglected to give him "the talk" in case you forgot." Salem reminded him.

EVERYONE started to laugh at Nick's pout at Salem saying he is not responsible. He crossed his arms in annoyance.

Juniper chuckled as she patted his back.

"B-But….he can't come back to us…." Salem knew what it was like.

Mortals could not survive on Mt. Olympus, it was the home of the gods, and mere mortals could not handle it. And now that their son was mortal, they couldn't bring him back. The only way possible would be for him to become a god through his deeds. But that was at least 18 years away!

Everyone was stunned that Mortals can't live in Olympus. It was crazy to think about how a mortal couldn't be able to live amongst gods. They now understood why that version of Salem was upset. Though that didn't make Salem in the theater feel any better.

"I want my son back…" Salem hated the rules.

"I'm sorry sweetie…" Zeus was raging on the inside, but he had to be there for his wife.

"Ruby…." Salem was breaking on the inside, but she knew what she could do.

"I want to make sure this couple is provided for, make sure they're never short on money, I won't have the people raising my son go broke or hungry." She could still help her son indirectly.

Salem had a determined look in her eyes. "Now that I know my family is alive, I will help them in any way I can, be it teaching magic, babysitting, or even paying for college." she told Nick and June. The two of them smiled hearing her say this. She then looked at Ren and Nora. "Since June adopted you, I will help pay for the wedding.

This made Ren blush, while Nora started to smile. "Thanks, Magic Granny." she said happily, making Salem smile happily.

"All the gods are way ahead of you." Ruby sped off as Salem mourned.

"We would totally help however we could." Yang announced.

"Yeah, no matter the world." Ruby agreed.

"Anything for fearless leader!" Nora said with a smile.

This made Salem and June smile as they pulled all three of them into a hug. "Thank you." They told them, which made the three girls smile and hug back.

"I will find whoever did this…." Her eyes glowed red as the black marks around her eyes grew stronger. "And I can't watch them burn…."

"I would do the same." Salem said with a fierce look. But then she looked over at Cici, about to say she doesn't blame her for what Cinder on screen did, only to stop and smile as she watched Cici and Chance playing with hand puppets. She decided not to ruin the moment.

The muses then began to sing once more, with Maria taking the lead this time.

"Young Arc was mortal now.

Oooooo.

But since he did not drink the last drop, he still retained his god like strength."

It then showed a urn, depicting baby Arcules choking out the two imps in their snake form.

Salem turned to Ambrosias. "Could I get a copy of the urn?"

Ambrosias sighed and pulled out a piece of paper. "I'm just going to make a list of items from this world that you can look through for what you want when it's over." he explained to her.

Salem smiled at him. "Thank you." This caused him to blush and rub his neck.

Wolf just relaxed in his seat while this happened, and had a smug grin. Jinn deadpanned at him. "You are enjoying not being the one they go to for stuff."

"Oh wow, did you need your all knowing knowledge for that?" Wolf asked sarcastically.

"No, I just know a lazy bum when I see one." Jinn replied in annoyance.

"So thank his lucky staaaaaar!"

It then showed Ozma Zeus holding his wife Salem, as they stood over their son's crib.

"But Oz and Salem weeeeept.

Hoooohooohoooo.

Because their son could never come home.

They'd have to watch their precious baby grow up from afaaaaaar!"

It then transitioned to their picture on a pillar, and looking down on the farm, where Arcules was raised by the mortal couple.

June had a sad look on her face. She felt bad that Aunt Salem couldn't raise her own son, but she was also glad that she can at least enjoy motherhood in a world where she can't have children. So she felt a little conflicted. She didn't really know whether to mostly be happy or guilty if she was being honest.

Then the muses walked in front of an urn, depicting Cinder rejoicing, thinking she got rid of her only obstacle.

"Though Cinder's horrid plaaaaaan was hatched before Arc cut his first toooooth."

Cindy began to cackle to herself. "It's so nice to see another version of myself planning to get what I deserve."

Mercury cleared his throat to gain her attention. "In case you hadn't noticed, your little plan is fucked up already. The baby you wanted dead is still alive and still really strong."

"Shut up! I'm sure my other self will take care of it!" Cindy spat.

There was then a mural of little Arcules lifting up their house to find a toy, with his adopted mother still in it, and his father in shock.

Everyone was stunned seeing this. It was scary seeing a baby lift a house. Nora however jumped up to her feat with a grin. "Fearless leader can break all the legs now!"

Ren sighed. "Nora, calmed down."

Nora pouted. "Okay…" she said in disappointment as she sat back down.

"The boy grew stronger every day, and that's the gospel truuuuuuuth!

The gospel truuuuuuuth!"

Everyone was shocked hearing he was still getting stronger. "That's insane. He is already stupid strong. How can he get even stronger?" Yang asked.

"Well I mean, doesn't everyone get stronger than they were as a baby?" Wolf asked.

Everyone was silent for a moment, before Oz broke the silence. "Fair enough." he said before sipping his coffee.

SIXTEEN YEARS LATER

"I wonder what he will look like after all that time?" Velvet said as she began to imagine.

"With how strong he is, he is probably super ripped!" Yang said as she flexed her arms.

"Yeah!" Nora cheered as she flexed with her.

"Makes sense I guess." Mercury shrugged.

Salem and June meanwhile were just disappointed that they didn't get to see him grow up.

"WATCH OUT!" A young scrawny blond boy pulling a giant hay wagon about ten stories high was yelling at people to get out of the way.

Everyone went wide eyed. Both at Jaune's appearance, and the load he was pulling on the cart.

"Hold on! How does he look like a toothpick when he is that strong?!" Coco asked in shock.

"He is even scrawnier than when he first came to beacon…" Weiss said in surprise.

"Boo!" Yang jeered.

"No buff Jaune? What a ripoff!" Nora pouted.

"Well… it does make sense. You only gain muscle by straining your muscles. And I guess since everything is as light as a feather to this Jaune, he never worked his muscles in his life. Causing him to… look like that." Pyrrha speculated.

"Huh… that actually makes sense I suppose…" Weiss replied. Though she was a little disappointed. She and the other girls who liked Jaune wanted to see what he would look like with the muscles that matched his strength.

"But he looks less like he never worked out a day in his life, and more like he is malnourished." Glynda noted. The boy was skin and bones. His arms looked like twigs.

"Perhaps his strength comes with a fast metabolism as well?" Ozpin suggested.

"OH DEAR ZEUS!" Someone dived out of the way as the abnormally strong teenager was running like an arrow shot from Apollo's bow.

"JAUNE! YOU CAN SLOW DOWN!" Nicholas yelled at his son as their mule was sitting on the wagon with him.

"Please slow down… please please slow down…" Nick begged, really not wanting to see his counterpart in a crash.

"Sorry Dad! Can't risk being late!" Jaune knew that if they arrived late to the market, then some other farmer might get more business than them.

"I understand that but-" Suddenly they were at the gates. "WE'RE THERE! STOP!" Nick yelled out as Jaune realized he was distracted.

Everyone went wide eyed, seeing that they were going to crash. Nick began to go pale, as he couldn't look away from what he was sure was going to be an absolute train- er… cart wreck.

"Uh oh!" He yelled as he planted his feet into the ground.

Causing him to go deeper and deeper into the dirt as his father and the mule held on for dear life. Annnd, they were stopped, and somewhat safe as Nick thanked the gods that he hadn't been killed. He loved his son, but he gave him heart attacks sometimes.

Everyone was shocked and relieved that he managed to stop, while Nick let out a breath he didn't even realize he was holding as he held his chest.

The four spirits of the relics however, were holding up score carts. Jinn, Nimue, and Pythia gave a resounding 10., only for Ambrosias to hold up a 1. Before Nimue smacked the back of his head, and, with a grumble, he added a 0 next to it.

"Thanks son, but….again learn to slow down. I'm just glad you were with me when Penelope twisted her ankle."

Penelope the mule just huffed as her leg was in a cast.

Eve pouted seeing this. "Aw… that poor mule…"

Jackie looked at her with a smile. "You always did care about animals, didn't you?" she chuckled.

Blake, Sienna and Ilia were all still taken aback by just how drastically different Eve was from Adam. It was… jarring… how much of a gentle hearted girl she was.

"Heh, sorry dad." He crawled out of the hole and grabbed the whole load of hay like it was nothing.

Everyone's eyes nearly popped out of their skulls from how wide they were. It was just one surprise after another with this universe's version of Jaune.

Jinn then smirked. "You know, all that hay weighs over fourteen thousand pounds." This just made them even more shocked. And he was holding it with one hand.

"Imagine how much he could lift if he had actual muscles." Yang said in amazement.

"No need to unload yet, I need to go haggle with Lionheart, old bastard's trying to gyp me out of our hard earned money."

Salem had a murderous look on her face. "How dare that cowardly pawn think he can cheat my family!" She spat.

June meanwhile was trying really, really, hard not to get angry. And judging by how much her eye was twitching, it was not going well.

Ozpin just sighed. He was really disappointed to hear this, and hoped their Lionheart would never do such a thing.

Sienna however, along with the other faunus, were all disgusted by his actions. "It is faunus like him that give all of us a bad name." She spat.

"Okay!" He threw the hay back on the wagon.

"OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Only for Penelope the mule to be launched into the air.

Everyone went wide eyed at this, while Nora jumped out of her seat. "THE ASS IS AIRBORNE, REPEAT, THE ASS IS AIRBORNE!" She shouted at the top of her lungs. Getting chuckles and sighs alike. Chief among the sighs was Ren at his girlfriend's actions.

Eve meanwhile was frozen with shock. Her eyes going completely blank.

"Oops! Sorry Penelope."

"Now Jaune Arcules, I need you to-" Nicholas only used his full name when he was serious.

"I know, I know…" Jaue had heard it all before as he held his arms up.

Everyone was confused and curious what Nick was going to say, as well as why Jaune was holding his hand out.

And Penelope fell into his arms with a terrified look on her face.

"Stay by the cart."

Everyone went wide eyed at how he caught her without even looking. It definitely told them that this was a regular enough occurrence for him.

The infants however just clapped and giggled thinking it was funny.

Eve meanwhile, nearly passed out from relief as she was glad the mule was okay.

He leaned up against the way with Penelope who glared at him, not that she hated the boy, but he nearly killed her a few seconds ago.

Everyone laughed or chuckled at how the mule was glaring at him. It was honestly deserved.

"Man, I really wish-" Suddenly he heard grunting.

"Oh god! Oh no!" He saw someone struggling in the pottery shop

"Damn. That's a big pot." Roman said in amazement.

"What could be the point of making one that big?" Weiss asked in confusion.

"Here let me help!" He said as he stopped the man from falling.

"Oh thank you kindly!" The man said as Jaune looked around.

"No problem Mr. Port!" He greeted him with a smile as the man blanched in fear.

Everyone was surprised to see Port was the one who owned the shop. And were equally surprised at him being scared to see Jaune.

"Arcules! Oh, well, uh! Thank you, but uh, I need to clean up! So please get out!" He shooed the boy out of his stall before he slammed the door behind him.

"Well that is… bizarre…" Glynda said in a weirded out tone. It was strange for her to see Port act like that. Except with mice of course.

"Yes. I haven't seen Peter that scared since your little prank all those years ago." Ozpin chuckled. Making Glynda blush.

"but are you su-"

SLAM

Juniper, Salem, and surprisingly, Nimue, were all glaring at the screen. They were very, very unhappy with Port.

Ozpin and Glynda however were just laughing, as they couldn't see Port doing this at all. They were recording this to make fun of him later.

Salem then noticed Nimue. "Why are you upset, dear?"

"I don't like anyone being rude to Jaune…" Nimue huffed. Jaune reminded her a lot of Arthur. And so she did not like people disrespecting him.

"….Oh man…" Jaune kicked the ground in defeat. This happened every time he came into town.

Suddenly a discus was thrown his way.

Nora then brightened up and had an excited look. "FRISBEE!" she seemed like a puppy with how excited she was. Everyone just laughed at her antics.

"Hey man, that's ours!" A group of teens ran his way before they stopped in fear of him.

Jaune smiled as maybe he found something to do, maybe they would be his friends! He didn't have any friends, after all, no one wanted to be friends with….with..

Someone like him…

June, Nick, Saphron, and surprisingly, Terra, all started to growl at Jaune's thoughts.

Terra grabbed her wife's hand. "That's not true. It was thanks to being Jaune's friend that I got to meet Saphron." She said firmly, making Saphron smile with a hint of a blush on her face at her wife's words..

"And Rouge only met Wins-LENA thanks to being his tutor and friend." Juniper reminded everyone. She slipped up a little, still not used to the transition Lena had made.

"Hey, you need an extra guy?" He smiled but he already saw the fear in their eyes.

"Uh, Arcules." He noticed he recognized one of them, a farmer named Fox.

Coco and Velvet were completely shocked at this. They could not believe that this version of Fox was afraid of Jaune, given that their version of him was Jaune's friend.

"We already have five! And we don't want to break an even number!" He said as Jaune thought about it.

Everyone just deadpanned. "Wow… really?" Yang asked, flabbergasted.

"I'm pretty sure even the pancake girl wouldn't fall for tha-'' before Mercury could finish, he felt a hammer then slam into his metal kneecap. Smashing it to pieces as he went pale.

Nora then came and picked up the hammer. "Next time it will be your third leg." She threatened as she walked back to her seat.

"Hey wait a second five isn-" He was cut off as they snatched the discus out of his hand.

"Ha! Geek!" They taunted him as they ran off.

"Should change his name to Jerkcules!"

Now the cfvy duo were glaring at the asshole version of Fox. "Our Fox would NEVER be that rude, or be such an ass." Coco growled.

"Yeah. If Fox didn't want to hang out with someone, he would give a good reason… or just want to sleep." Velvet agreed.

Jaune looked down at the ground again. Wondering why everyone had to treat him like the plague. While he tried to be friendly towards everyone. They usually ended up being afraid of him or giving him some excuse as to why they couldn't.

Everyone felt really sad for Jaune. They felt awful seeing him like this.

"You sure this isn't our version of Blondie given how depressed and friendless he is?" Mercury asked as his leg had finally finished repairing. Wolf may or may not have made it intentionally take a bit.

While everyone else wouldn't have been as blunt as Mercury, they couldn't help but see the similarities this Jaune had with theirs. And it made them feel worse, and made the beacon students remember Jaune's feelings about their friendships.

"I just wish I had one friend…" He thought to himself as he heard something flying overhead.

Teams Rwby, Npr, Cv, Terra, Eve, Jackie and Nimue all felt sad hearing that. "We are your friends." Ruby spoke, saying what they were all thinking.

"Heads up!" He heard the boys yell as he saw the discus flying.

This was his chance! He could prove himself and maybe they would let him in on the fun.

Everyone felt really unhappy at how this version of Jaune felt like he needed to prove himself in order to make friends. Made many of them think of their Jaune, and how they needed to be better friends with him.

"I got it!" He smiled as he jumped for it.

He sailed through the air and caught it, only to feel his back hit something hard and solid.

Nora went wide eyed, knowing exactly what was about to happen. She has had enough accidents to know when something bad is going to happen.

"OOF!" He closed his eyes as he fell on his back.

Not knowing what he hit, he opened his eyes as soon as his breath returned and the pain had mostly faded.

"Oh crap…" He said as he noticed what he did.

He had ran into one of the stone pillars, and it was starting to collapse towards the other. This was not good! If this place collapsed Jaune knew his dad would be PISSED! So he did the only thing he could do, he yanked the pillar out of the ground and away from the pillar it was tumbling towards.

Nick sighed. "I might get a little mad, but I would be more concerned for your own safety…"

Juniper smiled as she rested her head on her husband's shoulder.

"I got it!" He said as he swung it around.

Only to hit the other pillar on the other side.

June, Salem, and Nimue all broke out into hysterical laughter, as it was both funny and yet not at the same time. Yes they were concerned for Jaune, but it felt like a skit of a cartoon at this point.

"….CRAP!" He yelled as he threw the pillar away so he could try and stop the domino like effect on the pillars.

Again, this turned out to be the wrong thing to do as he hit the pillars on the other side.

The theater then rang out with the sound of slapping as everyone's face palmed at this.

"Why is friend Jaune like a cartoon character with how clumsy he is?" Penny asked.

"I don't kno-" before Ruby finished, a thought crossed her mind. "You watch cartoons?"

"Oh yes. I have seen some with my father. My favorite is the one with the coyote failing to catch the fast beard in zainy fashions." Penny said with a smile.

"Huh…" Ruby wasn't expecting that.

"…I just can't win today!" He yelled as he chased after the collapsing pillars.

The market was crumbling pillar by pillar as Jaune was trying to figure out a way to stop it.

"JAUNE ARCULES!" His father yelled as Jaune ran past him.

"Sorry Dad! BE RIGHT BACK!" Penelope was staying right by the cart where it was safe.

Nick just sighed. "It would probably be better if he stopped… but I'm proud that he is at least TRYING to fix things…"

"Oh no no no no no no no!" Mr. Port saw the pillars collapsing towards him and his store.

"AAHHHH!" He let out a girlish scream as he saw the two pillars coming towards him.

Both Glynda and Ozpin began laughing. "I haven't heard Peter reach that high of a note since your mouse prank." Ozpin chuckled as he turned to Glynda.

"Hehe, neither have I. I actually miss it now that I think about it." Glynda said through her laughter.

Only for nothing to happen, he opened his eyes and saw that the pillars had collided against each other, stopping the destruction.

"Phew." He breathed a sigh of relief, his pottery was safe.

"OH CRAP! LOOK OUT!" Jaune yelled as he slipped on some oils and was sliding towards Port.

"NOOOOO!"

CRRRRRRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSHHHHHH

Chance began to giggle and bounce in place. "Gain Gopher, gain!" he said excitedly, loving the loud smashing sounds.

Glynda sighed. Not really liking the idea of Chance thinking things breaking is funny. She can imagine a couple headaches in the future.

Now all of Port's pots were broken, and the entire marketplace was in shambles. Jaune knew he was in trouble. He looked down at the object in his hand that had caused this whole fiasco, all of this was his fault, and it was all because of a stupid discus. Thrown by a group of boys who showed no interest in him.

Gods above he was an idiot…

"Nice move, JERKcules." The boy from before said as he snatched his discus back.

Coco and Velvet glared at alternative Fox. "He is nothing like our Fox one bit." Velvet said in an unhappy tone.

"Not one bit." Coco said as she crossed her arms in anger.

"THIS…" Port said as his head was inside a pot.

"IS." It came loose.

"THE" He was almost free.

"LAST STRAW!" He was finally free from his pot.

"Nicholas!" Port yelled in rage.

"Now Peter…" Nick was trying to salvage the situation as best as he could.

"THAT BOY IS A MENACE!" A finger pointed towards Jaune.

"HE'S TOO DANGEROUS TO BE AROUND NORMAL PEOPLE!" A Faunus man yelled in rage as Jaune winced at their tones.

Everyone glared at the faunus, who suspiciously looked a lot like Lionheart.

"Hey! My son is a good boy, he just…" Nicholas wasn't sure how to word it.

"He…can't control his strength."

Nick sighed. "He can't control his strength since no one tought him how." he growled, disappointed in his other self.

Jinn cleared her throat to gain his attention. "Need i remind you that this version of you is a farmer, not a warrior? It's not that he never wanted to. He just doesn't know HOW to teach him."

Nick sighed again. He just wished something could have been done.

"I don't care! I don't care if it was an accident, You keep that... that…." Port was struggling to find a word.

"FREAK AWAY FROM HERE!"

Juliet was huffing and screaming at the screen. "Daddy no Fweak, You Fweak!" she shouted angrily, causing everyone to stop and look at her, before Saphron and Terra picked up the angry little girl and cuddled her. "We are keeping our new daughter." Saphron simply stated.

Ilia blushed and started changing colors, only for her to be stunned when Adrian touched one of her freckles. "Mama Iwia pretty." he giggled, making the color changes intensify as she made her confused lizard noises.

Nick and Ozpin were more focused on Juliet's little tantrum. They then looked to their respective wives and sighed, and simultaneously spoke at the same time. "Takes after her…" only for them to turn to each other in surprise, only for them to change to sympathetic looks that scream "I know your pain".

That word really hit home for Jaune as he saw everyone agree with what Port said. All of them were snarling at him and calling him a freak…

Freak…

Monster….

Idiot….

Abomination…

It just started a chain reaction.

And he just put his head down in shame as he closed his eyes as he walked over to the cart and began to slowly walk away.

Eve began to shake in her seat as tears began to fall down her face. Yang and Blake were the first to notice and comfort her. "What's wrong?" Yang asked her.

"I-it's just that… sometimes I feel like I'm a freak since I'm just some clone that came out wrong…" she whimpered. The two frowned and hugged her to comfort her.

"You aren't a freak, Eve." Blake assured her, making her smile a little.

"Yeah. It was just bovine intervention that you ended up the girl you are." Yang said with a smirk. Making Blake groan, feeling like the moment was ruined, only for Eve to giggle.

TIME SKIP

Jaune was standing by the cliff watching the sunset with his dad. In truth Nicholas was mad at him at first, but he couldn't stay mad for long. After all he knew how much his son struggled with his strength and how much he wanted friends of his own. But it was hard when you were strong enough to level mountains and lift pillars as if they were pieces of straw.

Everyone felt bad for this version of Jaune. It wasn't fair how all those people treated him over an accident.

Nora however was jumping up and down in her seat though, seeing Jaune's feat of strength with a twinkle in her eye. June couldn't help but smile at her, thinking about how Nora already seemed like a perfect fit to the family.

"Jaune…they were angry they didn't mean…" He tried to comfort his son.

"But dad! They're right! I am a freak!"

Juliet began to shriek loudly. "DADDY NO FWEAK! DEY FWEAK!" she shouted, throwing a little dantrum.

Everyone chuckled at her getting upset for her daddy. Saphron and Terra giggled as they decided to distract her by blowing a few raspberries on her cheeks, making the little chameleon girl start to giggle loudly.

"I try to fit in! I try so hard…" He looked over the cliffs..

"But I can't….." No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't fit in with anyone.

June felt pissed off at that very moment. It hurt to see that things weren't too different from this universe for her baby. It honestly broke her heart.

Salem meanwhile was trying to think of a way to make everyone who dared make Jaune cry suffer. She was a very vengeful woman. Especially when it came to family.

"Sometimes….I feel like I don't belong here…" He got closer to the cliff, worrying his father.

"It sounds crazy, but it feels like I'm supposed to be somewhere else…" He looked up towards the sky.

"Ugh, I know it's crazy and doesn't make any sense." Jaune kicked a rock off the cliff.

"Well yeah. You don't belong there." Mercury spoke. Making everyone look at him. "What? It's true isn't it?"

Everyone still looked at him. Sure he had a point. But still.

"Arcules…." Nicholas wasn't sure what to say.

"I know…" He walked away as his dad thought about what to say.

How was he going to tell Jaune about the truth? He scratched his head as he knew this was going to be difficult.

Nick sighed. "I wouldn't even know where to begin…"

"How do you think I felt?" Tai asked. "Same with Qrow. He and I both have always felt like we had to tell Ruby about who her real father is, but couldn't bring ourselves to do so…"

Ruby looked down. She never really thought about how hard it must have been for them. Summer had a sad look as she looked at Qrow.

Jaune picked up a rock as he held it in his hand, and surprisingly, he started to sing.

"I have often dreamed of a far off place

Where a great warm welcome would be waiting for me."

Jaune skipped the rock over the cliffs. And it went about a mile out due to him using about 2% of his strength. He smiled as he looked up to the sky and let the sun shine on him. The one time he actually did feel at peace.

Team Rwby, Npr and Cv looked at each other. "We should throw a party for Jaune when we get home." Pyrrha suggested.

"Yeah! Fearless leader would love that!" Nora said excitedly.

"I'm pretty surprised by how far he tossed that stone." Yang noted.

"And to think, that was only two percent of his strength." Wolf chuckled, surprising everyone.

"Where the crowds would cheer, when they see my face

And a voice keeps saying this is where I'm meant to be"

The scene changed to him climbing up a tree with a smile on his face. This was one of his favorite things to do when he was sad, he would climb up a tree and watch the stars and hope to see the gods in their chariots racing across the sky. He still hadn't seen it yet. But he was hoping for it.

Everyone had sad smiles at how all Jaune wanted was to be excepted.

Just then, Saphron gave a small chuckle. "Hehe, Jaune used to always watch the sky on either the roof or on a tree branch."

"EXCUSE ME?!" Juniper shouted. "He could have gotten hurt if he fell! How could you not tell me?!"

"M-mom, it's alright. He was careful." Saphron said nervously.

"It most certainly is not alright! You are in big trouble for keeping this from me, young lady!" Juniper had a very pissed off look that made Saphron gulp. She was screwed.

Juliet giggled. "Uh oh, mama Saphy in twouble."

Saphron pouted at Juliet.

"So… what is this about a chariot?" Winter asked.

Before Jinn could speak, Wolf butts in. "Well you see, the sun and the moon are different in that world. There, they are driven by horse drawn chariots, with a god of the sun or the moon driving it."

Everyone was surprised that that is how the sun and moon worked in that world.

"I will find my way, I can go the distance.

I'll be there someday, if I can be strong.

I know every mile, will be worth my while.

I would go most anywhere to feel like I belllooonnnggg"

Many of the people in the theater theater really bad for Jaune. Many of the girls that liked him wished they could pull him into a hug to help.

He looked up into the skies as his voice trailed off and he decided it was time to go home. He walked back home and saw his mother and father waiting for him. Both with a look of worry on their face. That's odd, he often went out at night to look at the stars. Why did they both look so concerned?

Juniper and Nicholas both had confused looks on the faces, wondering what it was that had their counterparts looking like that.

"Arcules….There's something we need to tell you."

June sighed hearing this. "They are going to tell him…" realization spread across everyone's faces at that moment. They were wondering how Jaune would react.

The scene changed to their shadows being shown by the fireplace.

"Wait…you mean you found me? But…if that's true, then…where did I come from?" He had so many questions.

Juniper and Nicholas looked down sadly, not knowing just how Arcules would react to this information. Most kids didn't take finding out they were adopted later in life very well.

"We found this around your neck…" Juniper said as she pulled a necklace off.

"It's the symbol of the gods…." Jaune's eyes widened as he stood up in excitement.

"THAT'S IT! They have to have the answer! I'll go to the temple of Zeus and-" He was cut off as he saw his parents' looks of sadness.

Everyone was shocked at how excited Jaune seemed at how the gods would have the answer, while June and Nick were sad like their counterparts, thinking he was already forgetting about how they raised him. It honestly kind of hurt.

"Mom…Dad…you're the best parents anyone could ask for." He smiled as he put his hands on their shoulders.

The two parents smiled sadly at the screen, happy that he still loves them for all they had done.

"But I need to know the truth…" He turned to his mother.

"Mom, you were there for me when I needed you most, when I was sad, you would always find a way to cheer me up, when I was hurt, you always made the pain go away, and no matter what I never doubted that you loved me…" He gave his mother Junipdr a nice big hug, granted he did have to tone down his strength, but she hugged him back all the same with some tears going down her face.

Salem pat June's lap and gave her a smile. "It looks like you are a loving mother in any universe."

June smiled at her. "Thank you."

"Dad, you taught me almost everything I know about the world, and to always do your best, and to be kind towards everyone in hope of making the world a better place. I'll never forget that." He gave his father a firm handshake and a hug as Nicholas was not going to cry. But that still didn't mean he wasn't worried for his son.

Nick smiled at his son's words to him, only to notice the looks Salem and June were giving him. "What?"

"Are you forgetting about the fact you NEVER trained him?" Salem asked.

"Or the fact you trained Verte, IN FRONT of him?" June continued.

"Are you ever going to let me live that down?! I said I was sorry!" Nick groaned.

"Nope." both women said.

"I AM ON MY WAY!

I CAN GO THE DISTANCE!"

Jaune was shown crossing over rivers and mountains, uprooting a tree to make a bridge across a gap. He was determined to get to the temple of Zeus, and nothing was going to stand in his way.

Everyone looked dumbfounded as he made a bridge by knocking down a tree, while the babies giggled at how funny it was. They kept forgetting that he was extremely strong, just because of how scrawny he was.

I DON'T CARE HOW FAR! SOMEHOW I'LL BE STRONG!

I KNOW EVERY MILE WILL BE WORTH MY WHILE, I WOULD GO MOST ANYWHERE

TO FIND WHERE I BELOOONNGG!

He had finally found the temple of Zeus. He walked into the mostly dim area. Unfortunately not many people had the time to make this trip. So the area itself was mostly devoid of human life. But there it was, the statue of Zeus sitting there on his throne. And right next to it was a much smaller statue that was only a few feet taller than Jaune. It was of his wife, the Goddess of death, Salem. But Zeus's statue was without a doubt the main attraction as it nearly was the size of the whole temple.

Salem let out a sigh. Nimue turned to her. "What's wrong?"

Salem turned to her. "I just know that is going to make Ozma have a big head…"

"Well I mean…" Wolf interjected, "it is actually kinda normal in ancient Greece for gods to get massive statues in THEIR temples. I'm pretty sure your statue is that big in YOUR temple."

Salem let out another sigh. "Still…"

"Almighty Zeus….hear me and my prayer, I need answers, where did I come from? How do I get back there?" Jaune asked as he looked up to the statue hoping for some divine intervention.

"So uh… how exactly are the gods going to answer him?" Yang asked.

"I am not sure, as the only references I have on the subjects of gods would be Mr Wolf and Mrs Esmerelda." Penny spoke.

"So that can only mean it's going to be ridiculous, wacky, or completely ridiculous." Maria chuckled.

Wolf chuckled. "Guilty." he said doing the Rock and roll hand sign. While Es pouted at the comment.

Weiss just sighed. "Well they could just show up in a dramatic fashion and answer. I mean it's not like the statue is going to come to-"

He was thinking maybe a voice would come to his mind. But what he got was much….MUCH more surprising.

A bolt of lightning hit the statue as the torches in the temple lit up. And that was when the weirdest thing happened. He saw some dust start to fall as if the statue itself was moving. And then….

The statue opened its eyes….

And it smiled at him.

"...life…" Weiss finished as she was frozen stiff.

Everyone else went wide eyed at how the statue was alive.

"You were saying, Ice Queen?" Coco asked.

"S-shut up!" Weiss shouted with a blush.

"My boy! My little Arcules!" And then it tried to grab him.

Salem then smacked Ozpin over the head, making him spill the coffee he was drinking.

"Gah! What was that for?!" Ozpin shouted in shock.

"You idiot! You are going to scare the poor boy!" Salem shouted.

"Are you blaming me for the actions of another universes version of me?!"

Jaune did what any rational human being would do in this situation.

He screamed and tried to run away. Only to run into one of the numerous torches.

This time, it was June that smacked Oz upside the head. "If you EVER scare my son like that, I will make you suffer in ways that make my time in the war look like a tea party." she growled.

Ozpin sighed in frustration. Juniper and Salem were far too alike for his liking.

"Woah hold on there son!" The statue had him.

"AH! NO! NO!" Jaune was struggling to escape.

"Easy there! After all these years is that anyway to greet your father?!" Suddenly the human in the statue's grip stopped moving.

And a small head popped out with a stupid confused look on his face.

Juliet giggled at her daddy's silly face. This made Ilia, Saphron, and Terra all smile at the little girl, thinking she was just so adorable.

Chance was also laughing, before looking at Cici. "Gophew ook funny Sissy." he said in his little baby babble, making her laugh with him.

"Hehe, yes he does, Chance." she giggled.

"Er…F….FATHER?!" Jaune did not believe it.

"Didn't think you had a famous dad did you?" The statue laughed as it held Jaune in its palm.

"Uh…wha…HUH?!"

"Yeah I know, quite a shock, but you're old enough to know."

"So…you're my father…but…that means…I'mma….I'M A-" Jaune was shocked and couldn't say the last word.

Nora then jumped out of her seat. "YOU'RE A GOD FEARLESS LEADER!" she said in excitement, making everyone surprised by her little outburst.

"A god."

"A god…..I'M A GOD?!" Jaune couldn't believe it.

"Wait…but….if I'm a god, why am I down here…did….didn't you want me?" Jaune didn't know if he could take it if his own parents didn't even want him.

Salem then had a fierce look of rage. "If anyone were to hurt my family, I'd show them just what an army of grimm is capable of." she spat.

Everyone looked at her nervously. "We should remember not to make her angry…" Roman whispered to Neo, who nodded slowly.

"Of course we did….your mother and I loved you very much, but someone stole you from us and turned you mortal, and mortals can't survive on Mt. Olympus….I'm sorry…" Zeus said in sadness as another voice was heard.

Oz sighed. He couldn't help but think about how he would do anything to have his family back. Salem saw the look he had, and was saddened.

"WHERE IS HE?! LET ME SEE HIM!" Jaune heard another voice say as he felt something grab him from behind and hug him.

"OH MY BEAUTIFUL BABY BOY! ALL GROWN UP!" Salem squealed as she wasn't letting go of Jaune.

Salem blushed, while everyone else laughed at how her counterpart was acting. Salem found it really embarrassing. Nimue however, was smiling and snuggling up with Salem even more, making Salem smile and hug her adopted daughter close to her.

"OOOHH!" Jaune suddenly knew how Glynda felt when he hugged too hard.

June then gave a pout. "None of my babies hug me like that anymore…"

Saphron groaned. "Mom, stop being so over dramatic. We hug you like that all the time, but then you act like it's been years when it hasn't even been a day." she complained, making June huff more.

"M….M…Mother?" He said as she smiled even more.

"Yes! Oh how I long to hear you say that!" She turned him around and hugged him even more.

Jaune was still shocked by this, his father was Zeus, and his mother was Salem. And she was hugging him. And despite the fact she was the goddess of death….he felt safe and warm and loved…it was just like his adoptive mother's hugs. So he hugged back.

Salem and June both smiled happily, as they were so glad that this version of Jaune saw them both as his mothers. It warmed their hearts to know this.

"But…if I can't go to Mt. Olympus…..I won't be able to see you in person?" That was kind of a bummer.

"Honey! Tell him! Tell him!" Salem bounced up and down in excitement.

Glynda then started laughing. "It is bizarre seeing you as a dark goddess, yet acting like Miss Valkyrie, or even Miss Rose!" She said through her laughter.

Salem blushed at her comment, unable to help how embarrassing her words were. Ruby was hiding in her hood so no one could see her face, which was equally red.

Nora on the other hand thought the idea of her being like the grimm queen was hilarious.

"Easy there my love! There is one way." Zeus said as Jaune looked just as excited as his mother.

"Really?! What is it? What is it?!" He was bouncing up on his heels just like his mother.

It was kind of adorable.

Nora started laughing. "Hehe, Jaune-Jaune is just like, magic granny!"

Nimue giggled at that nickname Nora had given Salem, while Jinn and Pythia just full on laughed with the ginger girl.

"Well at least we know Salem is in a good mood." Jinn chuckled. Ambrosias just sighed at their antics.

"If you can prove yourself to be a true hero on earth, your godhood will be restored and you'll be able to come live with us!" Ozma said as Arcules knew what he needed to do.

Ruby tilted her head in confusion. "So… is the reason you didn't tell us what makes a real hero because Jaune is going to show us?" she asked Wolf and Jinn.

Wolf just shrugged. "Pretty much."

"Wouldn't want to spoil it after all." Jinn smirked.

"GREAT! I CAN DO TH- WOOOAAAHHH!" He accidentally stepped off of his father's hand.

"NOPE!" Salem grabbed hold of him as he fell.

"Be careful sweetie! You don't want to break anything! Are you hurt? Did you lose anything? Are you alright?" People would be shocked to see the Goddess of death checking over Jaune like a mother hen.

Ozpin then chuckled.

"What's so funny?" Salem huffed.

"Just remembering how you used to act that way with the girls back in the day." Ozpin explained. Salem just crossed her arms and huffed again.

And yet he was loving every second of it because it reminded him that his biological parents did want him, that he wasn't discarded like some of the jerks in town had told him when Nicholas and Juniper weren't looking.

Salem's expression then changed to that of rage. "What deadmen dared to even think of saying that?" she growled.

Juniper was equally pissed of look as she gave off a murderous aura, making everyone nervous.

They had to say it behind their backs because Juniper… could be a very violent woman when her son was threatened.

This made Saphron chuckle. "She was like that with all of us when we were kids."

Juniper smirked. "No one hurts my babies, and gets away with it."

Saphron rolled her eyes with a smile. "As much of a mama bear as ever."

As it turned out, Salem had given her a very personal blessing, and it basically gave her temporary superhuman strength whenever someone insulted her son. Needless to say, Salem couldn't punish mortals unless they were dead, but she could grant power to mortals for temporary satisfaction.

Es just had a smug look. "And thats why you don't fuck with a death goddess' kids. We don't know mercy."

Wolf just rolled his eyes. "Uh huh. Right…"

"Hold your horses my boy! Actually…" Zeus and Salem got excited as they remembered the gift they gave Jaune a long time ago.

He let out a whistle as a shooting star shot down into the temple. Revealing Jaunes first and currently only friend.

Everyone who cared about Jaune had very unhappy looks at being reminded how Jaune's only friend in that world was a winged horse.

Juliet however just giggled seeing him. "Horsey! Horsey horsey!" she called out.

Saphron and Terra chuckled as Terra set her back on the rocking horse, which she immediately enjoyed.

"Do you remember Pegasus?" Jaune looked at the winged horse with the blue mane.

He searched his memory for anything. But he couldn't find anything. That was until the pegasus headbutted him and licked his cheek. And then…it was like it triggered a memory.

Laughter filled the theater at how all it took was a headbutt for Jaune to remember Pegasus.

Nora turned to Ren. "Renny, we should do that in case one of us loses our memory of each other!"

Ren just shook his head. "I doubt I could ever forget about you." This made Nora blush as she snuggled against him.

"PEGASUS!" He gave the horse a hug as it wrapped its wings around him.

"So…what do I do?" Jaune asked, as he and Pegasus gave his father the exact same look that said 'Wait, what am I doing?'

Pyrrha let out a snicker. "It's strange to see a horse act so human."

Yang waved her comment off though. "You should see, Zwei. He always seems to understand what we are saying." as she said that, said dog tilted his head at her.

"First, find Qrow, the trainer of heroes and huntsmen alike….I warn you he can be a bit….eccentric."

Everyone was shocked to find out that Jaune was going to be trained by Qrow in how to be a hero.

Ruby however jumped up and hugged him. "DUNKLE QROW IS GONNA TRAIN JAUNE!" she cheered excitedly.

Qrow chuckled at how excited she was. "Guess I must be pretty good if I get a godly sponsorship." This made Raven roll her eyes at her brother.

"GOT IT! I'm on my way!" He got up on Pegasus and got ready to take off.

"Wait!" Salem came back with a new set of robes.

"I had these made for you!" She gave him a new robe of blue and gold.

Jinn smirked as she leaned to Salem. "You know, your counterpart made those herself." Salem blushed hard hearing this, seeing she went to such lengths for her son. It made her think of her daughters and how much she would have done for them.

Coco gave the clothes a look. She shrugged a little. "Not bad. Definitely fits the local fashion." she saids with an approving nod.

"Wow really? Wait, how did you know my size?"

"My dear boy, I have been watching over you my entire life! Of course I know everything about you! And we have so much catching up to do!" She hadn't been this excited since he was born.

Ozpin couldn't help but smile seeing Salem so happy. He hadn't seen her smile like that in a long long time.

Everyone was shocked however, that Salem, the queen of the grimm, and in that world, the goddess of death and destruction, could be that happy.

The Arc family all came to the conclusion that during the next break, they would have a little family time with Salem, as it was clear that she definitely needed it.

"Oh just wait til we tell everyone! Your sister was so saddened when she heard you went missing!" Salem couldn't wait to tell Cinder!

Cici then held Chance close while she pouted. "If my little brother went missing, I would burn the world down till I found him!" She held the baby tighter as if he would disappear, making Chance giggled as he hugged back.

Salem and Glynda couldn't help but smile at how protective she was, while Neo begrudgingly accepted that at least she knows her cousin is safe with Cici. Though she would much rather be the one snuggling him.

And with that, Jaune was off. Off to find Qrow! Off to find his destiny! Off to show his parents he could be a hero! And he finally had a friend! Granted it was a horse with wings, but it was still a friend.

"I WILL BEAT THE ODDS, I CAN GO THE DISTANCE,

I WILL FACE THE WORLD, FEARLESS, PROUD AND STRONG!"

The babies all giggled seeing Jaune sing happily. Sure they didn't understand what he was singing about, but they saw he was happy.

The girls who liked Jaune meanwhile had big smiles on their faces as they saw Jaune sing with such enthusiasm, seeing him finally feel like he has a chance to feel like he belongs.

He rode pegasus through the clouds, a smile on his face as he sang, the two excited to achieve their goal as they flew into the sunset.

"I WILL PLEASE THE GODS, I CAN GO THE DISTANCE, TILL I FIND MY HEROES WELCOME

RIGHT

WHERE

I

BELOOOOOOOOONG!"

And as they faded from view, the screen went black.

June smiled as the viewing ended. "That was definitely a good way to end it."

"I couldn't agree more." Winter nodded.

"Well I'm glad. Now, you go relax while I get things set up for all of you to see Cinder's party." Wolf explained.

Cici was now excited as she couldn't wait for everyone to see her party like they saw Amber's.

Everyone nodded to Wolf as he tried to get everything set up, once he did, he got the screen ready.

OMAKE:

A Black Phoenix holding a Green Shield is seen on the screen with the caption "Phoenix Warehouse Productions security tape."

Static is seen on the screen, before it opens to showing a tea party with all the girls wearing dresses. Whitley was also wearing a dress, due to the Arc sisters getting a hold of him, much to his growing embarrassment. Though Vernal also seemed to find it funny, which made him blush more.

All the mothers in the theater cooed seeing how adorable the kids all were. They were just so cute in the dresses that they couldn't help it.

Weiss and Winter meanwhile, went wide eyed seeing Whitley in a dress, and a part of them had wished they had done that with him as children. However, they had a feeling Jacques would have let something like that slide.

Cici meanwhile had a big smile on her face. "It wasn't just a princess party. It was a magic princess party. And big sis Rouge made all the dresses!"

June smiled hearing that her little girl made all those beautiful dresses.

Rouge was wearing a dress in various shades of red that made it look like her dress was on fire everytime she moves.

June squealed in joy as she began to take pictures of her adorable little girl looked like a fire sprite in that dress.

Nick was also smiling as he missed when all his babies were that small. Especially when they wanted to ride on his shoulders.

Bleu was wearing a blue dress that floofs out at the bottom and looks like it has moving clouds on it.

Nick chuckled a bit seeing this. "Definitely fits. That girl always seemed to have her head in the clouds more often then not."

June joined in the laughter. "That's just because she always had so many ideas."

Violet was wearing the classic white and gold princess dress.

Cici huffed and pouted. "Violet refused to dress up like a magic princess. She wanted to be a Boeing regular princess…"

This made June and Nick laugh more, while Saphron began to grumble. "Spoiled little bitch…" she mumbled to herself, always sick of Violet's attitude.

Verte and Amber were both wearing dark green and brown dresses that look like leaves and bark/soul respectively.

Es, Salem and June all cooed at how adorable the kids were as they began began take pictures of the two girls in green and brown.

Qrow meanwhile chuckled a bit as he saw Amber. "Kid looks like she is having fun." He said with a smile. He wasn't used to seeing Amber smile. At least not really smiling. Whenever he would check on her, she would always try to smile for his sake.

Blanche and Noire were wearing matching black and white dresses that when they stand together form a yin yang symbol on the front and back.

Cici then spoke up. "Big side Rouge actually made it so the design would rotate when they put it together, saying it's because they are two halves of a whole."

This made June chuckle. "Well, she wasn't wrong. Back when they were younger, they were practically joined at the hip."

Whitley was in a sky blue dress with white highlights.

Willow cooed seeing this. "He looks so cute as a little girl." She chuckled.

Winter and Weiss smirked. "Doesn't she look lovely, Weiss?" Winter asked with a chuckle.

"Indeed she does, Winter." Weiss replied with a massive grin. They were definitely going to make up for the lost opportunity growing up.

Vernal was in a black and red dress that looked like embers glowing when she moved.

Cici giggled as she saw the smile on Raven's face. "Vernal was also a fire princess. She looked so pretty in her dress, even if she didn't like it."

Raven smiled even more at her adopted daughter, while Yang was trying, and failing to act indifferent. But she just couldn't help but think her adoptive sister looked cute. It was really hard to keep a straight face and not gush.

And Cinder was in a red and brown dress that looks like Fall Leaves and even looks like there are gold leaves when she moves.

Cici had a big smile on her face. " I was a fall princess, and big sis Rouge made it so the dresses could grow along with us, so we can still wear them when back to normal."

Chance giggled as he looked up at Cici. "Sissy a pwetty pwincess!"

This made Cici smile as she hugged him tightly. "Aw, thank you, Chance!" she said happily. Glynda smiled at this, while Neo had a jealous look, wishing she was the one snuggling her cousin.

Coco meanwhile was insanely jealous, wishing she could get her hands on a dress like that. Though of course one in her style as she wasn't exactly much of the princess type.

They were all enjoying the party before Sally came in with a smile. "Alright children, are you ready for our special guest?" she asked cheerfully.

Everyone had confused looks on their faces as they turned to Cici. "So… who was the special guest?" Emerald asked.

"Must be someone from a princess universe." Roman shrugged.

"Oh, maybe it was my kitten from that one universe where she married a prince version of that young boy?" Kali said excitedly, making Blake blush.

Tai smirked as he turned to Raven. She blushed hard as she turned away from Tai, but she could feel his eyes on her.

"Who is it, grandma Sally?" Cici asked with an excited look.

Sally's smile grew bigger. "Come out, you two!" she called out.

Just then, Tai, dressed like prince Charming came in carrying a blushing Raven in his arms, who was dressed in a red and black version of Bell's dress from beauty and the beast.

Cici and Amber smiled as they ran over to them. "Auntie Raven is a princess!" They cheered.

To say everyone was shocked was an understatement. Their eyes nearly popped out of their heads seeing this. They could not believe Raven of all people was dressed like a princess.

Yang looked to the screen, then to Raven in the theater, then back at the screen, then to Raven, repeatedly over and over, before she got dizzy and realized it was the same person.

Tai chuckled as he looked at Raven. "Guess you can't hide your little hobby anymore."

Raven smacked his chest. "You are pushing your luck." she growled.

"But you still love me anyway." Tai smirked, making Raven blush even harder.

Vernal just had a shocked look on her face seeing her mother figure dressed like that and the way Tai was carrying her.

Yang was just as bewildered as her adoptive sister, and wasn't sure if she was seeing things or not.

Qrow meanwhile was snickering seeing his sister like that, as he pulled out his scroll and began recording. "Best day of my life." he chuckled.

Raven was glaring daggers at him, but luckily, she didn't have to do anything as Summer smacked him upside the head. "No teasing Raven." Summer said sternly, making Qrow grumble as if he was a five year old.

Tai just chuckled as he held Raven closer. "She certainly is a princess. MY princess." He then kissed her forehead.

"TAI!" Raven screeched in embarrassment.

"Well you are." Tai smirked as he kissed her more and more, making her blush worse.

Tai smiled as he kissed Raven lovingly. "You're my bandit princess." he said as he looked her in the eyes.

Raven's entire face turned red as steam came off her head, and her cowlick wiggled the same as Yang's did in the last viewing.

Everyone was shocked seeing Raven of all people being so flustered by Tai's flirting. It was… bizarre.

"EW!" all the kids groaned.

"That's icky!" Cici blanched.

"Really icky!" Amber agreed.

Cici groaned. "I really didn't need to see that when I was that age…"

Tai smirked. "Oh come on, it's normal for a married couple to do that."

Juniper chuckled. "I remember how all the kids would act like that when we would kiss."

Nick laughed with her. "Yeah, they would always get so dramatic. Violet would act like she went blind."

Tai chuckled at this. "Well what else is a prince supposed to do with a beautiful princess?" He asked teasingly as he kissed Raven cheek one more time.

Raven, who was now red as a tomato, got out of Tai's arms. "T-Tai, could we maybe focus on the kids?" She asked, wanting to make the extra blood flow to her cheeks stop.

"No you blonde idiot, keep embarrassing her!" Cindy shouted, taking pleasure in Raven's torment.

Raven glared at her, but not because she was enjoying her embarrassment, but because she insulted Tai.

"Oh fine…" Tai sighed as Raven went over to the table with the twins.

Raven then cleared her throat, trying to play off her blush. "S-so girls… how about I read you all princess stories while you have your tea party?" She offered with a smile.

Yang jumped out of her seat. "WHAT THE HELL?! Where the hell was my storytime?! Why are you telling other kids a story, when you never gave me one?!"

"I didn't think you would want one after all this time, Yang. Aren't you a little old for that?" Raven said in confusion.

"How would you know?! You were never there!" Yang shouted, showing just how upset and how much issues she had deep down.

Raven looked down sadly, before going over to her daughter, and hugging her. "I… I'm sorry. Yang, for being such an idiot…"

Yang teared up as she hugged back, before the two sat back down, though Raven didn't let go of Yang, wanting to make up for all those years she was gone.

The two young girls' eyes shined with excitement as they began to drag Aunty Raven to the table, making Raven chuckle at how excited they were. When they got to the table, Raven pulled out a fairytale book, and happily began reading from it.

Cici turned to Raven. "Didn't daddy let you keep the book?"

Raven blushed. "U-um… yes…" she admitted.

Qrow gave a good look to the book on screen. "Huh… that kinda looks like the one you had when we were a kid… before pops burned it…"

This made everyone look at Raven with a surprised expression. "Excuse me?" Yang asked in surprise.

Raven was now as red as a cherry. "Well… it was after a raid in a village when I was a little girl… I found a fairy tale book and well… I kept it… I instantly fell in love with all the stories of a handsome prince sweeping a beautiful princess off her feet and… wished a prince would do that for me…" she admitted.

This took everyone aback, and made them pissed at Qrow and Raven's father for burning that book. Tai meanwhile chuckled, as it all kinda made sense now.

As the tea party went on, Amp and Gale showed up, dressed as butlers, with Gale looking pissed off.

Everyone began laughing seeing the way they were dressed, though Glynda was kind of confused why her brother from another universe was looking so angry.

"Girls," said Amp. "We have another surprise for you." He said, doing his best butler impression.

Tai snickered. "Nice look there, Amp."

Amp raised a brow. "You as well, sir." He said, his voice dripping with sarcasm.

Es gave Tai a serious look. "He wears that suit on special occasions. Like the girl's birthday, or our anniversary."

Tai smirked. "Still funny."

Es tried to keep a straight face, but soon snickered, "Yeah, it is. Why do you think I like it when he wears it?"

Cici and Amber looked up to him. "What's the surprise, daddy?" Cici asked.

Amp smirked as he brought in a carriage pulled by a white horse. "A carriage ride." He told them.

Juliet squealed and started reaching for the screen. "Horsie, horsie!" she said excitedly, making everyone coo at how cute she was.

The girl's eyes lit up in excitement. "Horsie!" They both cheered happily and squealed as they dragged Raven with them. She had a massive blush on her face, though she also seemed to be excited as well as all the kids joined.

Everyone turned to Raven, who was now covering her blushing face. "Look… I enjoyed being treated like a princess…"

Tai smiled and snuggled her and Yang. "Well you both are my princesses."

"Tai!"

Dad!"

Both mother and daughter were blushing messes, all because of their husband and father being all corny.

Gale meanwhile just grumbled to himself. "This is so fucking humiliating… I didn't spend years learning psychiatry just to be a butler at a little girl's birthday party…"

Salem had a murderous look the second he said that. "What did he just say…" she growled. Everyone nervously looked at her, while Cici just giggled seeing this.

He however started to sweat when he realized a pissed off Sally was right behind him, and delivered a sharp blow to his head, knocking him right out.

Everyone was completely shocked, while Salem merely smirked and nodded, completely agreeing with how her counterpart handled that.

Cici giggled more. "Granny didn't like it when anyone would swear around us." she explained. All the mothers in the theater nodded, as they understood that very well.

The children, as well as Raven all enjoyed the carriage ride across the warehouse. Raven was practically gushing at this point from how much fun she was having.

Raven had a big smile on her face. "It was so much fun." she said happily.

Cici then pulled out a few photos. "I had taken a lot of pictures of the warehouse. Like daddy's garden, his zoo, and all the fairies living there."

"Wait, back up… fairies?" Velvet asked in surprise.

"You mean like Neo?" Mercury asked with a smirk, only to receive a boot to the head. "OW!"

Neo chuckled after throwing said boot.

"Should have seen that coming, pegleg." Roman replied as he high fived his adoptive daughter. Jackie just sighed at the two of them.

Of course it all had to end, so eventually the time came to get off the carriage. Raven however just had a big smile as she got off.

Tai smiled as he saw this and went over to her. "Had fun?" Raven just nodded in reply. "Hehe, good." Tai said as he pulled her close. Making her blush.

Cici giggled as she turned to Raven. "I'm glad you had fun, aunty Raven." she said with a warm smile. Raven blushed hard at being called aunty again. "Would you help me throw Princess parties for any of the girls like little Juliet?"

Raven instantly let out a squeal that was so loud, it made all the faunus cover their ears in pain, before Raven realized what she did and cleared her throat. "I-I would be happy too…"

"Smooth, sis." Qrow smirked, making Raven glared at him.

Sally however went over to the children after she finished knocking some sense into Gale. "Now then kids, who wants to help me bake some cupcakes before we watch a princess movie?" She asked sweetly, as if she didn't just beat someone within an inch of his life.

Jackie let out a gasp. Roman turned to her with a raised brow. "What's with you?" he asked.

Jackie took a minute before finally speaking. "W-well… even though Sally taught me how to cook, she NEVER gave me any of her recipes…"

"Huh… guess she was showing favoritism." Roman teased, making Jackie pout.

The children all cheered happily as they followed Sally into the kitchen. As they did, the screen turned black, and the video ended.

Chance saw how happy his sissy was, before tugging on her shirt. "Sissy, we bake wif Nana?" he asked in his cute baby voice.

Salem smiled. "I would love to bake with any of my grandchildren who want to." she replied.

This resulted in Nora jumping out of her seat. "Well what are we waiting for?!" She then grabbed Salem and Cici, who was still holding Chance. Cici giggled at how excited Nora was, as she thought it was sweet and cute.

Glynda turned to Wolf. "Are there any kitchens we can use here?"

"Down the hall to the left, you make a right after that, then go south of the bathroom." Wolf explained.

After that, Nora, Saphron and Terra, June, Cinder, and Glynda as well as the babies all go hijack one of Wolf's kitchens to bake with Salem. Having a lovely family bonding time together, while making a bit of a mess.
