Okay guys, I'm finally back after a long break, and well, to be honest, this chapter may suck. But I NEEDED TO DO IT.
Yes its in trailer form. The reason I did it is because I got really excited for this movie coming out.
Tolkien
I'm a huge fan of J.R.R. Tolkien, love the Lord of the rings, the hobbit, the silmarillion, The legend of Sigurd and Gudrun, I try to read as much about him as possible.
Now sadly, I couldn't do this chapter justice, mostly because its hard to do it in trailer format, but I needed to get it done because 1. I was so excited for the movie and 2. I hope others are as excited as I am. Because seriously, seems like I'm the only person in my group of friends who wants to go see it.
Anyways, update on myself, Army life has gotten hectic lately, and barely had time to write, but I had to get this out there. Also got my student loan debt under 10,000, so another small victory. By the time 2020 comes around I could actually be mostly debt free. And that will be a glorious day indeed.
Gym life is good, although I injured my knees pretty badly during a night movement. (FUCK NODS)
Overall, just living life as best as I can.
Had to sell my old motorcycle though, that sucks.
"What do you think we'll see next?" Ruby asked as she wanted to see a more heroic Jaune.
"I'm worried we'll see another villian." Weiss said.
"I'm more worried about seeing him Die…." Pyrrha didn't want to see that again.
"Look guys, lets try to be positive." Ren said as the screen started up again.
The scene changed to a horse and carriage outside of a victorian era restaurant.
"My whole life, I have been fascinated with language." Jaune said as he sat across the table from Weiss Schnee.
"In fact I've made my own." He said as he was trying to not act like a nerd.
"You invented an ENTIRE langauge?" Weiss couldn't believe it.
"Huh weird, this feels like a movie trailer with the music going." Yang said.
"I think it is, like it's the start to something bigger." Ruby felt like she knew what was going on.
"Wait, are we on a date?" Weiss asked blushing a bit.
"How about that, anything is possible." Yang said in disbelief.
"Yes, I wrote stories." Jaune said being completely honest.
"Legends."
Suddenly the scene changed to a black robed rider with a curved sword.
"Okay this is definitely a movie trailer!" Yang said as there was no way that cutaway would have happened.
"Yeah, but, I don't get it, what is Jaune supposed to be?" Ruby asked.
"Well, right now seems like he could be an author." Weiss was taking an interest in this Jaune.
She didn't know if it was because she couldn't imagine herself with Jaune, or if she was interested in the stories.
"….Tell me a story, in any language you want." Weiss was interested now.
Jaune got a bit nervous as he thought it over, about what kind of stories he made since he was a child.
BASED ON THE LIFE OF JAUNE ARC
"Ooooh, so this is a trailer about Vomit boy entirely, so he must be someone important." Yang said as everyone couldn't believe it.
This trailer was for a biopic about Jaune's life? He must have been someone important to warrant a movie being made about him.
"I still say he must be an author." Weiss said as she wanted to see more.
"Well, its about journeys."
The scene changed from Jaune at the table to a scene from his childhood.
"Arc!" A few boys called out as Jaune was hiding by a wall with a homemade banner.
Only for him to get into a play sword fight with a stick and a homemade shield.
"Awww, reminds me of the times we used to play as a kid!" Ruby reminded Yang of their childhood.
Granted Ruby sucked at using play weapons back then, but Yang would always let her win so she could feel the satisfaction of victory.
"I never played like that as a kid…" Weiss said as she felt a bit out of place.
"I was….preoccupied as a kid." Blake said to herself.
"…." Nora and Ren were silent.
Pyrrha meanwhile was watching in interest, she had been silent for the most part because Jaune was obviously going to be with Weiss in this trailer.
But….to see him look and act so differently was always interesting.
And then for the next scene to feature a battelfield of fire and mud.
"The journeys we take to prove ourselves…" He said as gunshots went off in the background.
Death and mud was all around them as multiple men charged forward with bayonets on the ends of their rifles.
"Wait? What just happened?" Blake asked as that was sudden.
"It was so happy…and then…" Ruby didn't like the new scene she saw.
"That looks like it was from the last great war…" Weiss looked upon the carnage of the battlefield.
"But why would Jaune be fighting in it? That happened years before even our parents were born." Pyrrha asked as she didn't know just how different this universe was to their own.
"Its about adventures." Jaune's voice said.
The screen showed Jaune playing with his friends and fooling around with a candle shroud which created shapes on the wall.
"We should form a club….a brotherhood!" Young Jaune said.
"And change the world!" His friend Sun said as they walked with each other back from school.
"Through the power of art!" Neptune said.
"Art changing the world?" Nora wasa positive person, but that didn't seem feasable.
"How could art change the world?" Blake asked skeptical after everything she had seen.
"Because Art can unite people…" Weiss said as everyone looked at her.
"Obviously it can't be used to stop battles or win wars, but after those fights end, a single piece of art, whether it be a song or a book can unite people all across the globe for their love of it, and their love can lead to understanding, and maybe, just maybe those people will unite in order to preserve the thing they all love." (1)
"Yeah! Like music, poetry!" Some of them listed off.
"And what about Arc?"
Jaune smiled at them.
"I want to write something!" The scene showed Jaune writing numerous stories in his little journal as a child.
"Called it!" Weiss said as Yang crossed her arms.
"What could Jaune write?" She didn't know if he had any imagination.
"If I had to guess, probably superhero novels." Nora said remembering his love of comic books.
"I say poetry." Ren said.
"I think fantasy." Pyrrha said as she put her two cents in.
"Maybe romance?" Weiss suggested considering her place in this universe.
"Its about magic beyond anything anyone has ever felt before."
"What it means to love…and be loved…"
The screen showed various scenes of Jaune holding hands with Weiss, climbing a tree with her, and eventually breaking into a costume closet backstage at an event and kissing her while in costume.
"AAAWWW!" Ruby gushed as she saw how cute they were.
"T-That…." Weiss was blushing as she wasn't expecting that.
Pyrrha clenched her fist a bit, but she remained calm. After all, she had gotten used to it at this point. But, she couldn't help but feel jealous, after all Weiss was Jaune's first crush, and it was hard to see the two of them together.
Even if it was just another universe.
Ren and Nora meanwhile thought it was cute.
He smiled as the scene channged.
"WAR! VALE IS AT WAR!"
EXPERIENCE THE JOURNEY
"And that's when It all goes wrong." Weiss grumbled as she knew this wouldn't go well.
"So another great war?"
"Most likely…." The group of friends couldn't believe it.
The teachers had been silent for most of the viewing. But this scene got to Ironwood most of all.
He was a soldier through and through. But even he would admit one thing. He hated war, but he knew he had to know how to win one. That being said. The Great war killed millions, and he wish no one would ever have to go through that in their lifetime.
To learn that not only one of Ozpin's students, but most likely his own would be drafted to fight, it didn't put his mind at ease.
THAT SHAPED THE IMAGINATION
Jaune passed by numerous recruiting posters. Before eventually he breathed out a long sigh.
Weiss cried as she walked away as Jaune had a stone cold look on his face.
The next scene was him getting decked out in Officer's clothes for his comission into the Queen's army.
"And like many men, he joined to fight…" Ironwood knew his history.
Back in the day, if war was ever to break out, everyone was meant to be drafted, it didn't matter who you were, if you didn't serve, you were a coward and a traitor to your country. It wasn't like today where it was mostly volunteers. For the most part in the great war, it was regular people put into extraordinary measures.
Men and women who only wanted to live their lives in peace.
But peace is something the world would never achieve.
"ARC!"
Jaune's friend cried out as he was in a foxhole.
"REN!"
Jaune cried out as he was in a different foxhole.
OF THE LEGENDARY AUTHOR
Ironwood had a sudden flashback to when he was a young man in the Atlesian army and they first encountered a white fang cell.
They had been on a rountine training mission, but the white fang had chosen that time to attack, needless to say, Ironwood and his men were defenseless, considering most of their ammunition were sim rounds, the fighting grew bloody and ended with most of his friends being slaughtered before he killed the last white fang grunt.
He clenched his fist as the memory of that day still haunted him.
An explosion ripped through as he saw a demonic red face wreathed in flame.
"What the hell was that?!" Yang wasn't sure if she was the only one seeing that.
"It…looked like a Grimm." Goodwitch said even though she couldn't explain it.
"A grimm wreathed in flame?"
"The way you follow the rhythm of languages Mr. Arc….I have to tell you, I've never seen anything like it."
Professor Ozpin said to him at Beacon University as it was truly impressive what he had created.
Scenes flashed back to what appeared to be a Grimm dragon on the battelfield, but it quickly faded away as if it was never there.
"Seems like no matter what Ozpin is still a teacher…" Ironwood said as that distracted him.
Everyone was wondering just what was going through Jaune's mind when this was going on.
Were the visions of the creatures just a result of head trauma? Or was the horror of what he was seeing causing him to imagine the creatures because of the sheer brutality and evil he was witnessing?
The scenes started to play out, showing scenes of Jaune being held crying in the arms of one of his friends.
Everyone looked sympathetic towards Jaune. Knowing what he saw must have haunted him.
Ironwood especially was giving his sympathies. This version of the boy was different, in fact he couldn't call him a boy after knowing what he went through.
Jaune being held by his lover Weiss in the hospital bed.
Weiss held her hands together as she couldn't believe just how close they were in this trailer.
Jaune playing with his friends Ren, Neptune, Sun, Ruby, and Pyrrha.
Ruby was surprised, this was the first time she had seen herself in this trailer. The only woman so far had been Weiss, the rest had all been men.
Pyrrha smiled a little bit at seeing that they were still friends at least.
"This is more than a friendship, its an alliance….an invinicble alliance!" Sun said as the screen went black.
"…..A fellowship…." Jaune finished.
"….Why did it put so much emphasis on him saying that?" Ruby asked wondering what the significance was.
"Wait a second…."Ozpin suddenly remembered something.
The scene cut to Jaune back on the battlefield as he saw a giant mosnter, with black fur and red eyes and white bone like mask in the flames of war.
ARC
"So….Jaune wrote a famous book in this universe."
"But I wonder what it could be?" Ruby asked as she wanted to read it.
"Sadly I don't think we'll ever know."
Suddenly something materialized besides them.
"What is this?" Ruby asked as he held it up.
The Lord of The Relics
