Okay here we go. The Star wars chapter.

"I just hope whatever is next, I can drink." Qrow said as the author appeared again.

"Sorry, can't give you alcohol, but how about a nice package of adult diapers for your crybaby ass?" He said as Qrow was getting mad.

"WHAT DID I DO TO PISS YOU OFF?!" He said as the author smirked.

"Do you really want to know?" He said as Qrow nodded his head.

"I WANT TO KNOW!" He was getting irritated.

"Simple, because it was funny." He said as Qrow's eye twitched.

"You mean to tell me, you were screwing with me...just to get your rocks off?" He said with a pissed off tone.

"Oh Qrow, the tone you're using, my dick can only get so HARD." He said as Qrow wanted to kill this kid.

"I swear to god, if I ever find you, I will cut your balls off." He said as the author laughed and disappeared.

"You know, you really shouldn't antagonize him..." Goodwitch said as Qrow looked at her.

"Or else what?" He said as he was suddenly slapped in the face with a giant rubber phallus.

"Thats why..." She said as she was not expecting that.

"Come on! The next episode is starting!" RWBY and NPR said as they weren't paying attention to the adults.

Yang was getting off of the bullhead, she was at the base of a volcano where there used to be a white fang base. She received a transmission saying that Jaune would be here. Sure enough, she saw him coming out of the tower to come and see her.

"JAUNE!" She said as they ran up and kissed each other.

"WOAH!" Yang said as she blushed.

"I...guess it's Yang's turn." Pyrrha said as she understood there were going to be different pairings in this fic.

"I never really saw them as being a thing." Nora said.

"Jaune...Thank god you're alright." She said as she embraced him.

"What are you doing out here?" He asked wondering why she was here.

"I was so worried about you...Ren, he told me terrible things." She said as Jaune looked confused.

"What things?" He narrowed his eyes.

"He told me...that you turned over to Salem." She said as Jaune looked down.

"That you...killed our classmates." She said as Jaune sighed.

"What the?! Jaune would never kill any of us!" Nora said as everyone came to his defense.

"Yeah! Why would Vomit boy want to kill any of us?" Yang asked as it didn't make sense.

"And why would he change sides for this Salem person?" Ruby said as there was a lot they weren't seeing.

"I have a feeling it will all be explained." Ozpin said.

"Ren is trying to turn you against me." He stated simply.

"He cares about us." She replied.

"Us?" He asked.

"He knows...about the kids..." She said as Jaune looked away.

"He wants to help us! Jaune..all I want is your love..." She said.

"Love won't save you Yang! Only my new found power can!" He said with conviction.

"What are they talking about? Why do I need to be saved?" Yang asked not sure of what was going on.

"And what is this new found power Jaune has acquired?" Ruby asked.

"Wait a minute...Yang is pregnant." Blake said as she noticed the baby bump.

"Wait...what?!" She said as the all took a look.

"Oh my gosh she is..." Nora said.

"At what cost?! You're a good person! Don't do this!" She said as Jaune was a little angry.

"I won't lose you the way I lost Pyrrha, the way I lost my family.." He said in a sad tone.

"What happened to Pyrrha?" Nora asked.

"What happened to his family?" Pyrrha asked wondering what could have happened.

"They must be dead, but how?" Ruby asked.

"I am becoming more powerful than any huntsman has ever been, and I am doing it all for you, to protect you." Jaune said as Yang was a little worried.

"Just come with me! Help me raise our child! Away from all of this!" She said worried about their future.

"Don't you see? We don't have to run away anymore! I have brought peace to Remnant! I'm more powerful than Salem! I can overthrow her!" Jaune yelled.

"Wait...did...did he just imply he's working for Salem?" Ruby said as Ozpins blood ran cold.

"No...no he wouldn't." Yang said as she could never see him turning evil.

"Yeah! Jaune wouldn't do that!" NPR was in agreement.

Jaune couldn't turn evil...could he?

The image of the joker from chapter 1 came back to haunt them.

"And together we ran rule this planet! Make things how we want them to be!" He said as Yang backed away.

"I...I don't believe what I'm hearing! Ren was right! You have changed!" She said as she was shocked she was hearing this.

"I don't want to hear another word about Ren." Jaune was getting angry.

"I don't know who you are..." She said.

"Jaune...You're going down a path I can't follow!" She yelled as Jaune saw something in her bullhead.

"Because of Ren?" He said with a lost look on his face.

"Because of what you've done! Stop now! Come back! I love you!" She yelled with tears in her eyes.

"LIAR!" He screamed in anger.

"What? What happened?" Yang asked not knowing why he suddenly got so angry.

"Jaune...did he really kill those huntsman?" Nora asked in fear.

"No, something else must have happened!" Ruby said not wanting to accept the truth.

"But...what if he did?" Qrow asked the question no one wanted to hear.

Yang turned around and her blood ran cold. Ren was on the bullhead. He must have been hiding in the cargo bay. She now knew Jaune thought she was betraying him. Ren walked slowly down the steps of the bullhead as Jaune grew angrier.

"YOU'RE WITH HIM! YOU BROUGHT HIM HERE TO KILL ME!" He yelled in anger.

"No! Jaune I didn-" She was cut off as she saw him hold out his hand.

Jaune had discovered his Semblance was telekinesis, and right now, he was using it to choke the life out of Yang.

"LET HER GO JAUNE!" Ren yelled in a rare moment of anger.

Jaune just continued to exert his power over his face. His anger blinding him to what he was doing. His eyes flashing red.

"LET HER GO!" He yelled as Jaune finally let up.

And Yang collapsed to the ground.

"Oh my god." Yang said covering her mouth.

"He..He killled Yang." Ruby said.

"He killed his own wife." Blake said a bit disgusted.

"He killed his own child." Qrow said feeling his blood boil.

"YOU TURNED HER AGAINST ME!" Jaune yelled his eyes once again flashing red. The power of the Grimm Queen flowing through him.

"You have done that yourself." Ren said as he got off the bullhead.

"You will not take her from me!" Jaune said pulling his hood down.

"Your anger and lust for power have already done that!" Ren said wondering if his friend was still in there.

"You have allowed this Dark lady to twist your mind, until now...you have become the very thing you swore to destroy." He said feeling pity for him.

"I see..." Ozpin said as everyone turned to him.

"What do you mean?" Yang asked still distraught.

"The Grimm can have a certain effect on humans, early experiments were conducted to see if the blood of a grimm could enhance a huntsman's abilities, in reality, it doubled their strength, and gave them tremendous power in terms of Aura.." He said as Goodwitch continued.

"But there were side effects, hated, rage, insanity..." She listed off.

"Mr. Arc must have gotten a taste of that power, and it has twisted his mind." He said as they all looked at each other.

"Are you saying, its not entirely his fault?" Ruby asked.

"I'm not sure." He said as Qrow looked at the screen.

"I saw someone on Grimm Blood once...never again did I want to see someone like that again." He said as she had seen his sister use it once, it was horrifying.

"Do not lecture me Ren! I have seen through Ozpin's lies! I don't fear the Grimm as you do! I have brought peace to Remnant! And to our new Empire!" He yelled as Ren checked Yang's vitals.

She still had a pulse, she was still alive. He breathed a sigh of relief.

"Your new empire?" He asked wondering what insanity this was.

"Don't make me kill you." Jaune said his face shifting into a face of anger as he had his back turned to Ren.

"Jaune! My allegiance is to Ozpin, to the kingdoms! To Democracy!" He said as Jaune sighed.

"If you're not with me...then you're my enemy!" He said as Ren took a face of shock.

"Only a Grimm deals in absolutes. I will do what I must." He said as he unsheathed his weapons.

Jaune's reply was an evil chuckle a he prepared Crocea Mors.

"You will try." He said as flipped over to where Ren was and the battle began.

"Of all the things that could have happened." Nora said as she didn't want to see those two fight.

"At least Yang is still alive." Ruby said with relief.

"But Jaune and Ren are going to fight." Pyrrha said as she didnt' want to see that.

Jaune attacked with his blade, with Ren getting a few shots here and there with stormflower. But for the most part he was on the defensive. The only problem with his pistols is that he couldn't fire them as accurately as he could at a longer range. He had to rely entirely on his skills as a martial artist. Luckily he always kept those skills highly refined.

Jaune however had had numerous amounts of combat training. When Pyrrha was still alive she taught him Pankration and Sambo. Some of the most brutal martial arts there were, if that wasn't enough Ren had also taught him various forms of martial arts from his own country. Add in that Jaune had a perfect defense in his shield. It was not going to be easy to fight him.

The volcano they were in served as a horrible stage to fight on due to the fact at any moment they could fall into the lava. Jaune slashed multiple times as Ren was parrying the blows with the blades on stormflower.

"Damn, Jaune is much more skilled than he is now." Pyrrha said as she knew he couldn't fight like that yet.

"He's matching Ren, whatever kind of training he had really paid off." Nora said as she knew Ren was not to be taken lightly.

"Eh, the kids are alright." Qrow said as he had seen better fights.

Ren attempted to flip over Jaune, but Jaune immediately jumped up and bashed him into the ground with his shield. He went for a killing blow to Ren's neck, but Ren rolled out of the way in time and managed to dodge what would have been a fatal blow. Jumping back up to his feet, he landed a kick to Jaune's face. But it did little to call off his friend.

Jaune just got angrier and angrier. He went back on the offensive again and forced Ren into the control room of the white fang base. The tighter quarters gave Ren the advantage as he had the smaller weapons which were much more easy to manever in close quarters combat. But Jaune was no pushover. He deactivated his shield and gripped his sword two handed as he used the extra leverage to land punishing blows to Ren.

However, Ren matched and parried every single one. Jaune may have been stronger, but Ren was still fast enough to parry and counter. But once again, Jaune was no slouch on speed, he could see them coming, and he chose to dodge rather than try to move his weapon out of the way. He knew that his weapon required more leverage and was not as fast as Ren's. So he had to find ways to compensate for his lack of speed at the time.

Ren went for a blow, but Jaune knocked the pistol out of his hand and grabbed Ren by the throat.

"Ughh..." Ren was choking as Jaune was pushing his sword closer to closer to Ren's neck.

He was determined to finish him off now.

"GET OUT OF THERE!" Nora panicked for Ren.

"Nora, I'm right here, don't worry about me." Ren said trying to calm her down.

"But its still you!" She said as she was worried. She couldn't help but feel worried.

"I just don't want them to fight..." Pyrrha said as she didn't like seeing her team mates fight.

Even when it was clear one of them had gone down a dark path.

Qrow, Ozpin and Glynda had seen this happen before, someone going down a dark path that they couldn't follow. For Qrow it was his sister, for Ozpin, he had seen countless students go down the wrong path, and for Glynda, well before James cooled off, he went down a dark path. It was not a pretty sight.

Ren responded by kicking Jaune in the back, which distracted him enough to get his hand off of Ren's threat. Allowing Ren to knock his sword out of his hand and rechieve his second pistol, which he was about to use to stab Jaune in the chest. But Jaune would not allow him to win that easily. Using his semblance. He reached out for his sword, and it came right to his hand. Allowing him to fend off what would have been a deadly blow.

He used both of his feet to kick Ren in the chest, as he did a jump flip to get back on his feet.

Jaune and Ren went back to the dance of blades as Ren forced Jaune onto one of the control panels. He brought one of his weapons down, only for Jaune to roll out of the way, and for Ren to hit the control panel. An alarm went off as Ren pulled out and attacked Jaune again.

"What was that alarm?" Ren asked as he did not have a good feeling.

"I don't know, but it couldn't have been good." Yang said as she continued to watch Ren and Jaune fight.

Ren fled out of the control room, he needed more space, and he didn't want to risk damaging anything in the base that could potentially lead to their destruction. Who knows what that control panel was for.

Jaune and Ren were now fighting on a bridge overlooking the volcanic crater. Blades were flying as the two tried to outmatch the other. But it would appear they were evenly matched.

"uuuuuhhhh." Ren and Jaune both grunted as Jane and Ren locked Blades.

Jaune overcame Ren and managed to push onto the offensive again. And kicked Ren off the platform into the Lava below.

"NNNOOOOO!" Nora yelled as Ren held her tight.

"I'm sure I'm fine Nora." He said as he was unsure.

"Let's hope so." Ruby said.

The others were not so sure.

Jaune looked over the edge, only to see that Ren was standing on a piece of hovering metal in the river of lava. He grimaced as he jumped down to join him on that platform. And the battle began again.

This time, neither of them could afford to give the other one any ground. If they did, they would surely fall into the lava below. The two clashed again and again, neither one budhing an inch. Finally, Ren saw an oppurtunity, and when Jaune was a little too slow on the draw, he landed a palm strike to his chest that launched him backwards. Ren felt victorious but also frightened that he would have to kill his friend. But as it turned out, Jaune landed on another platform.

"I have failed you Jaune...we have failed you." Ren said as he felt guilty that they couldn't stop him in time.

"I should have known the Huntsman were planning on taking over!" He yelled in anger.

"JAUNE! Salem is evil! Why can't you see that?!" He yelled in anger at his friend.

"From my point of view, the Huntsman are evil." He said as he glared at Ren.

"Well, then you are lost!" He said as the battle began again.

"Why would Jaune think the Huntsman were planning to take over the world?" Weiss asked as Ozpin spoke up.

"When you have any group that is powerful and has abilities no normal human can stand against, it only takes someone from a different point of view to convince you to switch sides, that appears to be what happened to Mr. Arc. Twisted by a different ideological was of thinking." He said as everyone accepted that answer.

"But it seemed like he was also doing it to help Yang, remember what he said? He said he wouldn't lose Yang like he lost Pyrrha." Ruby said as everyone remembered that.

"Yeah, what was that about?" Qrow asked as he was now curious.

Why did Jaune switch sides?

They were moving so fast, any normal human would have seen blurs. It was good both had been trained by General Ironwood in order to fight off the Grimm. Although Jaune had fallen into darkness, and Ren was really starting to wish he hadn't been trained by the same man. Since both were having a difficult time trying to gain the upper hand.

"This is the end for you, old friend." Jaune said with a glare as he forced Ren off the platform.

Thinking quick, Ren saw a hunk of volcanic rock, he used his aura to propel him towards the rock. Luckily he landed on his kees, but he immediately stood back up as he saw Jaune was still on the platform below.

"It's over Jaune! I have the high ground!" He said hoping that would persuade his old friend to stop.

"You underestimate my power!" Jaune said with a glare.

Ren gave him a look, begging him to stop.

"Don't try it." He was BEGGING Jaune to not jump.

"Please Jaune, don't do it!" Yang yelled as she was surprised she was getting all emotional.

"JUST STOP FIGHTING!" Ruby was mad now.

"You don't need to fight each other!" Nora hated seeing her friend and her boyfriend fight.

"Just stop the senseless violence!" Qrow was getting sick of this.

Jaune lept into the air, doing a flip, hoping to land behind Ren and continue the battle. But Ren had a trick up his sleeve. Ren had been working on modifying his weapons. But he had never had a chance to test it out until now.

Faster than Jaune could see. He put both of his weapons together. The two pistol blades formed together to form one giant single edged blade. And a long handle. Ren's two swords had changed into a Katana. And gripping his new weapon. He swung his weapon into an Arc.

His blade cut through Jaune's leg, and his left arm.

"AAGGGHHH!" Jaune screamed as he rolled down to the bottom of the volcanic rock he was on. Just barely staying out of the lava.

"No." Nora said as she couldn't believe what had happened.

"Oh oum." Even Qrow was having a hard time watching.

"Why? Why did this happen?" Weiss asked as she couldn't believe what she was seeing.

"What will happen now?" Blake asked as she had been pretty quiet.

Ren sheathed his weapon as he looked down at Jaune. His old friend was looking back up at him. But his blue eyes that used to hold so much warmth were no longer there. Instead, they were now pure red, with black sclera. His friend truly had fallen to the Grimm.

"WHY? WHY DID YOU DO THIS?!" Ren yelled at his friend, as he saw Jaune was still trying to crawl up to him.

"We made a promise to destroy Salem! Not join her!" He yelled as Jaune continued to struggle.

"Bring balance to the world! Not leave it in darkness!" He screamed in pain as he looked on the ground next to him.

Crocea Mors had fallen from Jaune's grasp, the shield was in its sheath form and laying right next to the sword, one of Jaunes's hands was still gripped tightly to the blade.

"I HATE YOU!" Jaune yelled as they saw his eyes glow a brighter red.

"You were my brother Jaune...I loved you..." Ren said in pain as Jaune's face took on a softer appearance.

Only for the lava to catch on his jeans and set him ablaze.

"AAAGGGGGHHHHH!" He screamed in pain as the fire started to spread.

"Oh my Oum, no!" Ruby said as she turned away and hid her face in Yang's chest.

"This is sick." Yang said as she had to hold back the urge to vomit.

Weiss had never felt so sick in her entire life, the boy who had annoyed her for so long, was now being burned alive. His screams being etched in her mind. Blake looked away, not wanting to see the horror. Qrow at this point really wished he had a drink, only to see a flask materialize next to him, with a note saying 'I think you'll need this.' signed by the author. For once he thanked the author and took a few swigs of whiskey.

Glynda may have seemed coldhearted and authoritative on the outside, but she cared for her students, and seeing one die in such a horrible manner was scarring. Even for her. Who had seen many of her friends die in the field.

Ozpin had broken his coffee cup by gripping it so tight. His hatred for Salem growing even bigger.

Nora was crying in Ren's arms. Pyrrha was trying to look away from the burning image of the man she loved. Ren was trying not to cry at seeing his brother die.

Ren grabbed Crocea Mors and left. Knowing that Jaune would die from his wounds. He picked up Yang, and brought her to the ship. Determined to get her to a hospital.

The room changed to a hospital room.

"I'm sorry, but theres not much we can do..." A nurse said as Ren looked confused.

"What do you mean?" He asked.

"We don't know whats wrong, she seems to have lost the will to live." The nurse said as she looked at the doctors.

"But we are hopeful we can save the child. It's a girl." She said as she went back inside.

Ren couldn't believe this, first Jaune, and now Yang was going to die? And leave her child behind.

"No! I won't leave my child all alone! Don't let me do that!" Yang never wanted to expose a child to that.

Especially after her own mother had abandoned her.

Ren ran into the room, he saw Yang's daughter, she bore a striking resemblance to Jaune, he looked away as he held Yang's hand.

"Ren..." She said as Ren leaned closer.

"Please...there is still good in him...there is...still..." She said as she stopped breathing.

"No...Not again." He said as he lost two friends tonight.

"Poor Ren..." Nora said as Ren let a few tears fall.

"She still believed Jaune could be good.." Yang said as she looked at her other self.

"Could he?" Ruby asked.

"I...I don't know." Ozpin said.

Meanwhile back at the base.

Jaune was burnt to a crisp. The arm he did have left was burnt to a crisp. Bone was sticking out of his knuckles, as the flesh had been burned away. But he was determined not to die.

"There he is! He's still alive." Salem said as she arrived.

"Get him onto a medical bullhead immediately!" She said as her white fang grunts obliged.

"So thats Salem." Ruby said as she glared at the witch.

"Now we know who to hunt for." Yang said as she wanted to take this bitch down.

"Together." Blake said as she was not going to run away from this.

"We will break her." Nora said as she was truly angry this time.

TIME SKIP

The scene changed to Jaune being placed in a suit, he had prosthetic limbs attached to replace his missing limbs, and his remaining arm was put through a healing/regenerative state, they were still trying to save the little he had left of his arm. Unfortunately the inhalation of all the smoke and ash had done irreparable damage to his lungs. Causing him to need a respirator to breath.

The final touch was sealing his scarred face in a black helmet that bore resemblance to a samurai helmet, and a black skull.

They heard a slight whine as the helmet attached itself to the armor.

HOOOOOOPPPPAAAAHHHH

That breathing sound send shivers down their spines. For some reason, it sounded familiar. But they didn't know where they had heard it before. But whatever it was, it was unsettling.

"Lord Arc...can you hear me?" Salem said as Jaune was now in a standing positon.

He continued to breath as he moved his head a bit.

"Yes Mistress." His voice was now deeper and more intimidating

"Where is Yang?" He asked as Salem took a step back in fear.

He still cared for her. That could be dangerous.

"Is she safe? She she alright?" He asked in a worried tone.

"He...He doesn't remember does he?" Yang asked remembering how it was Jaune who had hurt Yang.

"His anger must have clouded his judgement." Ruby suggested.

"Combined with the blood of the Grimm, he most likely didn't realize what he was doing." Goodwitch said as Qrow was glad he had a drink for this.

"It seems in your anger, you killed her." Salem said hiding her grin.

"I...I couldn't have...SHE WAS ALIVE! I FELT IT!" He said as his semblance reached out.

White fang recruits were being strangled to death, some of the nurses were passing out in fright, and the machines that had given him life were now being crushed underneath his power.

He broke free of his restraints, taking a few steps forward. Looking down at his new limbs, horrified as to what he had become.

"Wha-WHAT IS THIS?!" He yelled as he looked at himself in a mirror.

Only to see a black mask staring back at him.

"NOOOOOOOOOOOO!" He yelled in pain.

He not only lost his love, he had lost his daughter, and he had lost himself.

Everyone was crying. Salem lied to Jaune. He didn't kill her, she died in Childbirth. In a way, they could still feel sorry for him. He wasn't evil on purpose. He was just trying to do the right thing. And that made it even worse.

"Why? Why did this happen to Jaune of all people?" Yang said as she was horrified.

This in a way was worse than the Arc wedding. At least then, they knew someone else was responsible for their deaths.

But this Jaune was going to live the rest of his life believing he killed his family.

Thats a horrible thought.
