AN: So this is the last of the real world chapters, I hope you guys really enjoyed this mini-series in Watching Jaune Again. I felt relieved I wasn't doing reactions all that much. I just like to make ones where there is no concept of reviewing what was placed on the paper. We're nearly cracking 1000 follows, never expected my story to do so well because I try not to do what others do. I also got to 500 reviews, and I hope this number was more but I'll take what I can get.
I'll be taking a break from updating, this is due to my work making me very busy. I promise I'll get back as soon as possible. I'll also have to be looking at other requests and how can I integrate it into the framework of the reaction chapters found in the last chapter.
1. What is the best author you've read from in FanFiction?
Shady-kun: None other than Parascious, used to hate him until I decided to give his other stories a try. In Time and Holyman are classics with Fate:Kill, Hero and Sword, Vasto of White, Stay Cooking and Magus Among Ninjas. He is the best in terms of evoking emotion through action, and to do so without a lot of words shows his ability. He always updates within 4 to 5 days and the stories I mention are all in progress and he cycles through them. He also understands the most complex anime of all time… the Fate series and seamlessly is able to crossover with other anime that amazes me.
Guikoi-chan: Oh my, this is a tough question. You ask that but my brain just freezes and goes "wat" and I have no real ability to think further on that question. But if I had to answer I would say Mallobaude. Especially his Monster Girl fic, where Jaune goes to Salem's special hidden Academy and has to hide that he's human amongst Grimm hybrids. Many of which are RWBY characters. Ruby is a Grimm/human hybrid, so is Weiss and Yang and Blake (god is she creepy, but I like her). The romance is very… organic. It makes sense in the character's interactions that Jaune would become the love interest of Ruby, Weiss and Blake. I haven't read the more recent chapters, only up to chapter 30 or so, so I'll have to get back into it. Plus Mallobaude has a ton of other one-shots and other stories focused around romance that I find to be very sweet and interesting and I love. Check him out if you have the time.
Exiled-san: I agree with Guikoi. Mallobaude and Imyoshi for me. Whenever I read one of their stories, I just feel relaxed and happy. It makes my day better when they update or upload a new story.
Gentleman-sama: Oh boy. I guess if I have to answer, I have a few. FoxOnPie, who's the author of "Neither a Bird nor a Plane, it's Deku!" - a My Hero Academia/Superman DC crossover story which is absolutely phenomenal, my personal favorite story for quite some time now. I'm also a fan of The Infamous Man, who's currently writing "Amazing Fantasy" - an MHA/Spider-Man (Spider-Verse) crossover which is also really good with all the promise that FoxOnPie's story has and then some (TIM's also the author of "Just An Unorthodox Thief", a Lupin III/Fate/stay night crossover and "A Different Kind of Truth", a Steel Ball Run/Persona 4 crossover). Otherwise I love Darth Marrs' Star Wars stories (although his Harry Potter aren't bad either), joe6991, The Dark Scribbler and even though he's nine years inactive now, Ruskbyte wrote some of the best Harry Potter fanfic I've ever read. If I had to choose just one, I'd probably say FoxOnPie.2.
2. What is the worst trope in Fanfics
Shady-kun: For me personally… it is the Gamer because honestly it gets really old, really quick. Plus for me it is a pain to read when I know that even small actions will cause someone to become overpowered really quick. I also hate the manhwa it was based on because it got boring after chapter 30 when I realized there's no more stakes that the MC is gonna be troubled by. But the Gamer made me love Solo Leveling all that more because it was an antithesis to the former. Another trope is probably the cuck/NTR because it's simply a fantasy that others want to do upon other human beings. To me that is disgusting for a dude that doesn't currently have a relationship with a significant other, other than my two hands. The last is simply the angst filled fics that made me remember my emo days that I realize now are just a phase in life where hormones dominated my actions.
Guikoi-chan: I don't believe there's a "worst" trope in fanfiction, as anything can be made to be good. Even Shady's hated cuck/NTR (I hate it too) trope. I mean, if it's used to generate conflict that is masterfully written and compelling then it can be done well. So I can't say there's any real objective worst trope in fanfiction. But I can answer that question on a more subjective lens. I would have to say… Hmmm… Mary Sue. Yeah, I'll go with that. I despise the Mary Sue/Gary Stu trope. Though this applies to all media and not just fanfics. And it CAN be done well, such as One Punch Man or Fate/Grand Order. For example with F/GO: Ritsuka can be said to have many Mary Sue traits, but I wouldn't say he's 100% one, just close. After all, he's undergoing fucking PTSD during the Lostbelts from what I've heard, gained from the Singularities and the… events, that lead into the Lostbelts. (Author's Note: Lostbelts make you into Kiritsugu Emiya.)
Exiled-san: For me, I'd say that it's when everyone betrays the MC and the MC turns all emo. Don't get me wrong, sometimes it can be very well written, but most of the time; it's just the MC turning all badass and suddenly the author makes up an excuse for the MC's friends. They suddenly feel so apologetic of their actions and the MC either forgives them and adds them to his harem or tells them to screw off and continues to be an edge lord about it.
Gentleman-sama: Harems. You have to have one hell of a story for me to get over there being more than two love interests. Mostly because it just generally devolves into porn and is usually a side dish to Gary Stu/Mary Sue fics, where the MC can never experience this thing we like to know as conflict because the asshole's too powerful and there's never any sense of drama. Which I hate. But not as much as harems. There are a few out there that I've liked, but they're so few and far between that it hardly matters.
3. What do you think of reaction fics making their characters go back into their real world?
Shady-kun: It's a challenge and a break of pace and also a breath of fresh air. I don't see many use this to an advantage. It adds stakes to the scenarios that the characters react to and develop their mindsets and perceptions from. It's effects then can be placed into the real world of Remnant for an actual effect of the reactions.
Guikoi-chan: I am fine with it for the most part. Of course, it counts on how it is done. But that can be said of anything so at that point it's just splitting hairs. I would say so long as it doesn't last 25 chapters or something absurd to the point the fic changes direction from a react fic, then I'm fine with it. Actually, going from a react fic into a… well, "proper" (for the lack of a better term) fic might be interesting, if done well.
Exiled-san: I don't know. I've never seen it done until now. If done right, then it would be interesting to see.
Gentleman-sama: It depends on how it's done. What Shady's doing, I like - the characters using what they've seen to better themselves. But anything else? I can't see myself getting behind it. The only reason they should return is to train, not carry on any plot. If a reaction story ever makes a full return and expects me to keep reading the story though . . . probably not going to happen. React fics should be just that: reactions and when it's over, the cast is released back into the wild so to speak.
Although I will admit that generally speaking, I prefer react fics to stay within the "multiverse" realm just because it helps things flow a bit better IMPO.
4. Which has the best fanfic community
Shady-kun: From what I've seen, probably the Fate/stay night community and the RWBY community. Because they're not so toxic and at the same time very reasonable and capable of dialogue unlike Naruto which makes authors have to follow a set of guidelines in making their stories in order to become successful.
Guikoi-chan: I'd agree with Shady on this. The Nasuverse (Fate and other stories by Nasu all take place within the same general 'universe' with differing timelines, so it's called the "Nasuverse" for short) community and the RWBY community are pretty decent. I'd also say the JoJo community if you can get around our nagging, "welcome to spoiler town-ness" and absolute shitlord memery. Every fandom has its horrible disgusting tumor-like filth in some parts, but I would say if you can avoid those parts, these fandoms are really good.
Exiled-san: I also agree with my friends above. People from the fandoms above are surprisingly chill and if they like your stuff, then they're really supportive. Just don't get involved in shitting on their ships and you won't have a bad time. Fate and RWBY are my favorite series followed by My Hero Academia.
Gentleman-sama: Favorite fandom? Either JoJo, Star Wars or Worm (web serial written by Wildbow). Considerably less drama than a lot of other fandoms and while they do have their flaws, it's always fun discussing the series in question. My Hero Academia's up there too (as is Kingdom Hearts and the Soulsborne fandom) and despite the fandom being long-dead at this point, Buffy the Vampire Slayer will always have a special place in my heart since it was Buffy fanfic that got me into fanfic in the first place, twelve to thirteen years ago.
I'm gonna be showing one part of a tournament arc, so I hope you all enjoy!
The roars and cheers of the common populace of Remnant celebrated for the day of the Vytal Festival. The large parade made by Atlas gave them a sense of security from the seemingly eternal threat of the Grimm. But they didn't come here for merrymaking and peace talks, they came here for a release in the form of competition of those who were skilled and stronger than them.
The floating stadium was now ready to see some action after the beautiful speech from Beacon's headmaster. A rather thin man with an air of wisdom surrounding him carried a mug of coffee in his hands. The one next to him was very proud of his amazing moustache and proudly showed off his gut. They were there to announce the first match of the Vytal Tournament.
Peter Port proudly announced to the adoring crowd of citizens for who he thought were cheering for him. Now he would have loved to go on and on about his tales however a little roadblock in the form of a riding crop had prevented him from doing so. "Ladies and gentlemen! Welcome to the Vytal Festival."
He soaked in the approval of the crowd like a gladiator determining if they were entertained. He stroked his mustache with renewed pride in his speaking ability. "I would love to tell you all about my wondrous self however it is time for our new generation to show off their hard work to us all. I hope you are ready for our first match, now watch the big screen for the terrain that these young warriors will take combat in."
The big screen revealed a series of images in different areas of a circle. The images lighted up in random times to give the audience some suspense as to what kind of stage they'll see the fight occur in. A snowflake, a tree, a blade of grass, a flame, a rock and a lake all lit up before ending at the blade of grass. The amazed expressions in the audience showed how excited they were.
The stage suddenly shifted from a normal looking area for sparring and combat, a flatland if you will. It had suddenly sprouted into a grassland with little hills within random areas of the entire stage. If one were to understand how such a scenario had occurred, the best way to explain it… is don't question it. If it worked in the series of **mon then it worked here.
Peter Port continued his introduction. "Now pay close attention to the screen again for the teams that will open this beautiful festival off."
The crowd looked back to the giant screen as an assortment of team names popped up with some intense background music accompanying it. After a while it glowed to reveal the name of Team NDGO along with the members' faces to the crowd. A show of pyrotechnics occured as the team left the entrance and arrived on the right side of the stage. They waved the crowd with in turn support was returned to them.
"Feast your eyes on Team NDGO, fan favorites in Vacuo, they were the ones who won the Freshman Tournament in Shade Academy and are looking to impose their will onto the Vytal stage. Now for their opponents!"
Once again the screen lit up with different names, in a different timeline, it would have been a team from Vacuo as well in order to give an underdog story. However things have changed with the Creator appearing, along with new motives from third parties to see if their plans can continue even with interference from the huntsmen-in-training.
Therefore it was only reasonable for the malware to select a team that had two of its members being targets in the grand scheme of Remnant. It stopped at JNPR as the crowd erupted in raucous joy upon finding out that the tickets they spent so much money on was going to be well-earned. Seeing the undefeated champion at the start was sure to bring their enjoyment up although Team NDGO looked like they swallowed a lemon as they cursed their luck.
Every person in the tournament knew that besides Team RWBY who were always in the news for their adventures against the White Fang and Roman Torchwick, the one team to avoid was Team JNPR. The obvious reason was Pyrrha Nikos but now her partner was technically a monster due to his absurd amount of aura. Add a stealthy ninja and a girl who caused so much property damage with a penchant for breaking legs, their hopes of making it to the finals had dropped considerably.
Team JNPR arrived and of course everyone in the crowd cheered for Pyrrha who had decided to abandon her trusty sword and shield. The other students in the audience were perplexed by the decision of dual wielding two katanas, the one on the right hand was longer than the one on the left.
Jaune was not wielding Crocea Mors on his back. His knightly armor was replaced with normal clothes that one would wear if they were just going around Vale. The big change to everyone was that he was using a really long katana that was strapped to his back. Lie Ren had not changed but when eyes locked onto his partner, Team NDGO just wanted to quit right there and then to throw in the towel at the seventh round if one were to say.
Carrying with one hand was a hammer that should not be humanly possible to even lift. Larger and wider than any person can get, the only truth that Nora's right arm muscles were bulging and straining showed that she was truly holding the weapon fairly easily since she looked quite excited and happy to show off her new baby.
Inspired by Mjolnir, Magnhild Ver 2.0 had the same size as her divine version in its subdued form. However it was still very big for any normal huntress to carry unless they were Nora Valkyrie. The peppy leg breaking nut was thanking Ruby for her genius smithing by placing thrusters in the back of the hammer since she wouldn't use it to smash into people. But don't worry folks, the grenade launcher was still there.
The crowd just wanted to see these two teams fight, it was a guarantee to them that this new generation would breed new hunters to protect them. Bartholomew Oobleck took over the mic from his compatriot. "On this historic day to the Vytal Festival, put your hands together for the first match in the tournament. Team NDGO vs Team JNPR!"
The ruckus of the crowd seemingly surprised both teams except for Pyrrha who was used to this response back in Mistral. Flashbacks to those times reined in her head for they brought some bad memories of the Invincible Champion, all of those were dissuaded when she felt a warm and soft hand hold the back of hers.
She looked to see her team leader and partner who was more confident than before smile at her with a knowing look. "Come on Pyrrha, let's have some fun."
She gave a relieved sigh. "Alright, Jaune. It's time for you to lead us into battle."
"Yup… so let's start things off with a boom."
"START!"
Not one member from each team moved in order to not fall into the other's trap. Nervousness racked up in Team NDGO since they didn't know what Team JNPR had to offer. Their anxieties increased when the leader talked to the girl with the behemoth of a hammer as she jumped for joy.
Nebula felt it in her bones, Team JNPR would be making the first move. "It's coming girls!"
At that moment, the first sign of action was from Nora charging towards them. Dew wanted to use her dust in order to make the Valkyrie change course or think twice about just rushing to the front door so to speak. Octavia wanted to combine her teammate's wind dust with fire dust however it could possibly burn any part of the stage thus making it into a detriment to fight in.
Nebula and Gwen wanted to simply dodge and then eliminate through ring out thus turning it into a three versus four fight. However, Nora did the unthinkable as she raised the hammer with two arms whilst the gigantic weapon was coated with lightning. Without warning, she swung downwards after reaching the halfway point of the stage.
The results were jaw dropping to both the audience and Team NDGO as the force was only multiplied through Maghild's new thrusters turning on. The impact caused a large portion of the grasslands to come flying out of the arena. All that was left was maybe twenty five percent of the area for the all female team to operate. In front of them was a large crater or a chasm that wasn't that deep.
The problem was if they traversed it by jumping across, they'd be susceptible to being attacked from a defenseless position. If they tried to jump down and then climb back up to where Team JNPR was, they'd lose the high ground if a fight were to occur. They couldn't come up with a sound strategy and her teammates still had their brains ajar from that ridiculously powerful move when a weird sound filled the silence.
'BOOP!'
It was through instinct that Octavia and Dew weren't blown away, the former had made the secret service jealous by diving the latter away from where they once stood. An explosion rang out as debris flew everywhere. Nebula cursed the Brothers for their situation, a broken hammer with a grenade launcher. She didn't know of their chances with Nora since she was able to lift and smash her new hammer just like her old one.
Several boops rang out with Team NDGO evading the blasts the best they can, it didn't save their hair and skin from the dirt though. Gwen was nearly thrown out of the stage by two consecutive blasts that happened right in front of her. She was saved by Dew who used her wind dust in order to propel her teammate away from certain elimination.
"Thanks." A more irritated tone came out of the mouth of the black haired acrobat, it wasn't aimed at her teammate but it was at their enemy instead. Dew was also angry that she couldn't waste too much of her wind dust. She was in a bit of a conundrum, if she used her wind dust to create a cyclone in order to stop or redirect the grenades away.
A great plan however it came with its downside in the form of a great blocker of eyesight for them. A lot of dust will be kicked up and although Octavia could use it to go around the stage, it didn't help them if Team JNPR decided to use it as a way to launch an ambush. She wanted to use her wind dust to fight Nora however she didn't know if her wind could be affected by the large hammer.
Nebula sighed as her options to fight now dwindled amidst the assault of grenades thrown at them. "We have to fight them and get away from the grenades..."
"Say no more, Nebula, we're with you all the way." Dew commented which brought a smile to her leader as the four girls rushed forward through the explosions and debris towards the chasm. They then jumped in and used their respective aura to cushion the impact and then quickly tried to get out of what Magnhild Ver 2.0 created.
The explosions stopped and this caused the girls to realize that they fell for a trap. Hindsight is twenty twenty however they were in this scenario now. They looked up to see Team JNPR looking down on them with amused smiles. Jaune Arc broke the silence. "Sorry girls, it's over now. We have the high ground."
Nebula growled in response to this confident answer. Octavia immediately used the remaining dust around the air to glide out of the chasm, this sudden action caused the team from Beacon to stiffen in surprise for a couple of seconds. This window of time was enough to charge Jaune away from his team's formation as he started going on the offensive using his katana to block and parry her strikes.
"Jaune!" Pyrrha shouted as Octavia felt the former's semblance work to pull her backward however the champion had to stop. This was because she was jumped by Nebula and had to dodge away. The other two members of both teams also got into their own respective fights, Team JNPR's plan had not survived first contact.
"It's alright Pyrrha, remember our back up!" He turned to the side to avoid a slash from his red haired opponent. Meanwhile, Pyrrha had easily maneuvered around Nebula's crossbow-sword since she cut some dust bolts easily along with blocking her sword swings and cuts. She then used her newfound style to bait Nebula with the longer katana and thrusted her shorter one to the violette's stomach.
Nora simply used her large hammer to block any projectiles thrown like a shield. It also provided cover as it was implanted on the stage. Ren covered them both with suppressive fire from his dual submachine guns.
After waiting for a while for Ren to reload, Dew had used her wind dust to create a cyclone headed towards the duo. Nora simply smiled in glee as she now used one arm as she lifted her hammer that was encased in the ground before.
As the cyclone came closer, all four members from Team JNPR all looked at each other and made a small nod. Nora then used all the force she could muster whilst her back she leaned backwards and swung upwards. One could say the force generated from the workout-addicted huntress-in-training was able to dissipate the gale that was supposed to blow both Ren and Nora away.
Both Gwen and Dew had their jaws slacked due to the impossibility of such an event to happen. It was one thing to blow away grassland, it was another to remove quite easily dust powered wind attacks. Due to their minds resetting, they didn't quite notice their leader barrel into them leaving the three girls in a heap.
"Ne-" Jaune had used this opportunity to land a solid kick to the abdomen making the more experienced huntress-in-training double over in a loss of breath. The blonde leader then looked at his squad and smiled. "Let's show these guys our teamwork!"
Nora started to circle around with the hammer in both of her hands as it joined in her circular movement. The force generated to the outside looker was a top spinning on its spindle, heavy winds were being blown from this action. The three girls tried to stand up in order to make a move, however Ren had pelted them with Storm Flower. Although their aura protected them from the damage, the force still managed to make them stay in their downed position.
"Damn you!" Gwen rang out in frustration as Nora released her hold that sent the hammer careening to where Jaune and Octavia were fighting. The blonde was able to duck and allow the hammer to bounce off of Octavia which nearly sent her flying away to the stage but the girl was able to dig her feet into the ground and stop before going outside the ring.
Her head was dizzy from both the earlier knee and from the large hammer hitting her that she did not notice two events. One, was that the thrusters of Magnhild Ver 2.0 were firing on all cylinders to go back to Nora at a faster speed. The audience was entranced for it looked like the girl had just thrown the humongous hammer and it was going back to her.
Second, Jaune immediately charged towards her, when he got in range he had swung downwards with such ferocity. Octavia's instincts rung through her body as she blocked the heavy blow and knew she was running out of aura. But she saw her chance upon a defenseless Jaune Arc who left himself wide open after he had swung downwards. 'CHANCE!'
Nora rushed forward to the three members of Team NDGO, Ren's barrage had stopped meaning they could all stand up however they were stuck in place from where they stood. With all of them being so close together and unable to move, they locked their eyes on Pyrrha who was using her semblance to hold them together.
They could not stop it.
Nora outstretched her right hand and caught the rebounding Maghild Ver 2.0 and introduced Pancake onto the world. She lessened the force in order for the three girls to not die and for her team to not get angry at her. The move slammed onto the three members of Team NDGO as all of them were knocked out on impact.
Octavia lunged with her kris but then noticed the confident smile of Jaune Arc. That was the last thing she saw before she was sent flying from an upward strike from the blonde. Tsubame Gaeshi had flown and was also noticed around the world. This included a shocked family of blondes who stood shocked at what their son and brother had just done.
Octavia was sent flying out of the ring and landed with her aura gone. Fearing the worst the teen had closed her eyes, but she was saved thanks to a familiar semblance from Beacon's deputy. Amidst the awe and shock of the crowd, one boisterous voice announced the decision of the first fight of the Vytal Festival. Peter Port had proudly acclaimed to rub their school's superiority over other huntsmen schools. "Thus proving why Beacon has the best talent! The winners are TEAM JNPR!"
Clamorous cheering erupted throughout the arena, Team NDGO were safely escorted towards the clinic near the facility. Team JNPR on the other hand drank in the appreciation for their fight which was only made even sweeter due to how much training they had to go through. Immediately, betters made them as the heavy favorite which made everyone else who'd have to fight them as a heavy underdog.
Other teams were suddenly very afraid of being picked to fight them in the coming rounds, the Vytal Festival now looked unfair to even compete in. Even those in Beacon, especially Team RWBY, were praying that they wouldn't face them so early in the tournament in order to not get stomped.
Cinder's team had their eyes narrowed in trepidation, once Jaune clearly showed a less trouble-free version of Tsubame Gaeshi along with Nora's uncomplicated hammer moves. Even her minions' hearts wanted to burst out of their chests. Cinder on the other hand felt more motivation to get Jaune Arc to serve her. 'I'm sorry my mistress however I feel this will benefit us.'
In their own private booth along with some of the councilors of Vale who were flexing on the other representatives of other nations. To the chagrin of those from Mistral and Vacuo, they could feel their egos suffer a death rattle, they were sure that their teams would reach the quarterfinals since almost everyone was supposed to be equal. 'What is Beacon feeding its students with?'
James Ironwood felt that there was going to be more trouble for Atlas to win the Festival. That contest was as if a veteran huntsmen team fought a newly formed one after Initiation. 'Their teamwork was impressive with all of them knowing of each other's strengths and weaknesses. From the start, they wanted this to happen where they would surprise their opponent and then use it to their advantage by interfering with each other's battles when the opposing team had not expected it.'
For the long time commander of the Atlesian forces, a battle may not even have the fortune of it being a one on one contest of wills to which Team NDGO wanted to have. 'Others may call it dirty or smart, either way that team has a big future ahead of them.'
He looked at Glynda and gave a small smile upon seeing her proud expression, even if she was most of the time authoritarian towards her students, she still cared about their progress. Ozpin took a long sip of his coffee mug and gave a small smile of appreciation, it always warmed his heart seeing the next generation succeed his expectations. 'I wonder where this will lead up to.'
It was the end of the first day of the Vytal Festival while Team JNPR was still riding the high of coming up victorious in an otherwise dominant fashion. The team had to go to great lengths to land in Nora's favorite pancake stop while avoiding the paparazzi thanks to the expertise of Pyrrha.
They were glad to see their friends from Team RWBY make it out quite easily along with others, even Pyrrha and Jaune were discussing about their future opponents. But everything changed as their whole reality started to turn into darkness. They couldn't even make a sound before they swallowed in the murky state.
When light returned to their vision, they were somehow now in the Creator's realm. Jaune was surprised at arriving in this place while still very much conscious. 'I thought we were supposed to sleep in order to reach where the Creator wants to watch other versions of me. Also what was with that dark stuff we saw that swallowed us all.'
Moments later, Team RWBY, Ozpin, Glynda, Qrow, Raven, Tai, James, Winter, Coco, Velvet, Cinder, Mercury, Emerald, Juniper started arriving randomly seating down on the seats provided. A new face appeared that shocked most of the people in the audience and they were-
"General Ironwood… what is this place? Oh, salutations friend Ruby might I ask the same question as to the nature of my presence here."
"Penny..."
The friendly girl, most definitely not a shock value robot, was now inside the Creator's realm. The Creator suddenly appeared in front of her, she had jumped a bit in surprise but then aimed her weapons at the deity. "I do not know how you got passed my sensors but surrender and-"
Her numerous weapons which were created from top of the line Atlas technology simply vanished in front of her face. The android was confused since this was not in the realm of possibility in the scenarios she was tested in. She wanted to attack but her friend appeared in front of her and started rambling about "abilities", "Creator", "watching" and "not attacking".
She giggled in her thoughts, her friend would sometimes speak so fast that her processors could not pick it up. But she could tell she should have not become so trigger happy upon seeing a person that could be a potential friend. It seemed that Ruby had met this person before and she didn't want to hurt anyone that Ruby told her not to.
"I am sorry, I had jumped to conclusions when my weapons disappeared without a trace." The Creator chuckled in response, her blunt nature was due to her nurture from scientists in a laboratory. He couldn't fault her for that, not like she couldn't really hurt him.
"It's alright Penny, merely a misunderstanding. I swear that I would not like any violence to happen in my premises. Anyone who tries to violate this rule will most definitely be punished."
Everyone except for the android had felt a cold chill travel up their spine, the way the Creator had uttered that certain word made them feel the weight of his power and authority over this domain. Ozpin was quite surprised to see Juniper turn into meek and frightened woman. Normally, she would be uncaring about the presence of any other deity besides the God of Darkness. 'What happened… Did the Creator talk to her?'
Penny nodded because she could understand these terms and before she could ask any more questions as to the nature of this realm or the reason why she was in the realm in the first place. She was whisked away by Ruby back to where her team was.
When Ruby returned to Team RWBY, she looked everywhere with her father and her sister for Summer Rose. However, she wasn't found anywhere which caused her mood to plummet. Her mom had promised that it wouldn't be the last time she would see her.
The Creator gained their attention by coughing once. "Alright everyone. I am very happy to see you all once again. I hope that little vacation back into your world was worth it because we are going very deep into-"
"Fufu, you are truly forgetting someone from your usual cast of people. How forgetful of you, Mr. Creator." Everyone turned towards the source of the voice and were confused by this new arrival who wore her kimono and looked otherworldly in her beauty. Next to her was Summer Rose who was tackled to the ground by Yang and Ruby who hugged her tightly as she reciprocated the gesture of endearment.
Summer sat up as her daughters held her tight, she then noticed Tai standing as he waited for them to come back up. She gave him a warm smile and a chaste kiss to the lips, he gave her a hug as well. For the other good guys, this warm gesture of family would make them swoon in happiness. For the bad guys, it was just too cringy to see again.
For the Creator, his sole attention was on the new arrival. If he had hair, he would be pulling it out in utter frustration. 'What is she doing here? This is my realm and she has no business doing anything in it!'
The boys focused on the new arrival as she gave a small smile, it didn't give them any warmth or cold. It just simply wanted them to hug her for they felt pity… for her existence. She walked slowly to Jaune and then looked at him. "So you are his entertainment, huh?"
Jaune was a bit confused by her question. He gave a guess as to who this lady was talking about. "Um, yeah."
The root of the entire universe ruffled the blonde's hair a bit and gave a warm smile. "Do your best. Big sister's watching you now."
Jaune didn't quite get the opportunity to ask what she was talking about before she disappeared to be at the very back of everyone. Everyone in the room locked eyes on her as she simply said. "Oh don't mind me, just enjoy what he's going to show you."
The Creator grumbled angrily to what the Void had just announced. "A fucking menace, I tell you. Anyways don't bother her, instead I will show you two trailers for the next scenarios."
"Everyone has a part of themselves they don't want to show anyone else." Jaune Arc with his disheveled blonde hair had both of his hands together as he gave a warm smile. His black suit and red tie with a lapel pin showed to everyone how handsome and successful he was.
"Not to friends, not to lovers, not even to family." Jaune continued his monologue as he looked towards his 'daughter', Ruby. She was wearing a simple green dark green dress with a white ribbon, with black shoes and white folded-down socks. Her shoulder-length, light red hair styled in pigtails, curls inwards with a fringe that reaches just above her eyes. She usually wears two horn-like hair ornaments with light yellow accents on the sides of her head.
"With fake smiles and bluffs, they hide their true thoughts, their true self. This is how the world..." The 'wife' of the family, Blake Belladonna, her long hair kept in a hairband as she dons her red off-the-shoulder sweater with black leggings and brown ankle boots.
"...Glosses things over for a fragile peace." Jaune had simply thrown a gun away into the pile of his various equipment strewn all across the floor on his side. This included masks, dossiers, poisons, binoculars, grappling hooks, various unknown gadgets.
"A tangle of secrets. A family of strangers..." Blake was also smiling as all around her were dead bodies with many having been killed by a single ice-pick with a longer pick and a hole at the end of the hilt. While others had their necks snapped or killed with poison.
Ruby simply looked at the two and proudly said. "This is my family, SPY X FAMILY"
"That looks a lot like that movie called Mr. and Ms. Vale" Yang commented which other Valeans also agreed on
"Hmm… maybe. But this one is definitely better. Here's the other trailer, enjoy!"
A large tree was in place with its many branches symbolizing the different ways a person's life can go. A telephone ring stops all the noise around. "You don't have to be on guard that much."
A train station shows two men sitting on chairs as they look to be having a conversation. Ozpin was in his aloof self whilst Jaune was wondering what the hell went wrong with his life to come up to this point. "You're in a good mood today. Did something good happen?"
Jaune was surprised when someone had a hold of his school uniform even if it was a pinch on the back. "You walk fast, Jaune Arc."
He looked behind to see a smiling Blake Belladonna, but things changed in that same train station. He looked indecisive as his horrified screams rang out. Laying on the platform with no limbs and bleeding out was Salem.
She looked scared. "You're kidding right… you aren't going to save me?"
It ends with Jaune atop an abandoned building, once a single ray of the sun hit him, he simply combusted and jumped while screaming in agony.
"Looks fun right."
