Oh hey there.

I was going to open this story with an quote from a review where it was suggested that I should do RWBYS: Heroes over and then pointing out 'Ironic'... But I couldn't find it.

Anyways, Welcome to the reboot of RWBYS: Heroes. Reason why I dropped the original is because it had become such a convoluted mess that I really had no idea where to go with it, so after a long consideration, I decided to just reboot the entire thing.

Events are going to take a different course through this story, and I'm fixing some grammar issues. The original is going to stay online for a while, but I'm not sure when I'm going to delete it and this story will be just RWBY: Heroes.

Anyways, hope your going to enjoy the reboot and as always I only own my OC's.


A motorcycle drove down the street of the City of Vale under the star sprinkled night, it's driver's face was being obscured by a blue full-face helmet.

On his lower body were black jeans, on his upper body, he wore a blue polo-shirt under a white jacked, its tail coats flaring out from behind him as if the wind blew at him from the front.

A man was thrown out of store window, shattering the glass as the man in a blacksuit fell on the road as a young girl appeared in a blur of speed.

Slamming the breaks, the motorcycle came to a stop just in time.

He saw that the girl had black hair with a red tint to it, along with silver-eyes. She was dressed in a black blouse, a black corset with red lacing, and a skirt with red trimmings, complete with a red cloak.

"Are you alright?" he said to the girl.

"Oh, I'm fine." she said casually, taking out her weapon, a red and black scythe, "Just stopping a robbery."

As she said that, a group of identical clothed men walked out, followed by a orange haired man in white and a bowler hat.

"Get her!" the man with the bowler hat ordered.

"Of course." the young man said, more annoyed than anything as he stepped off his bike.

The henchmen run at the young man and the girl, who waits for the right moment and with one swift kick, the girl send the approaching criminal in the face, sending him crashing into a wall.

"Stay back! I..." the girl in red began, looking over at the young man. But to her surprise, he was standing surrounded by defeated henchman, "What!?"

"You were worth every cent.", the man in white said annoyed at the defeated henchmen, "Truly, you were."

He dropped his cigar and crushing it with his cane as approaching police sirens are heard in the distance. "Well, my motorcycling friend and little red, I think we can all say it's been an eventful evening, and as much as I'd love to stick around...", he raises his cane and opens the bottom to reveal a rifle with a cross grid, "I'm afraid this is where we part ways." he unleashes a red blast at the the girl but it was intercepted by the young man, who seemed to have taken the full blast.

The man in white is quickly climbing up a ladder on a nearby building.

"Need a hand?" someone said, offering to help him up.

"Took you long..." the man in white said as he was helped up the building, but soon realized that it was the young man with the motorcycle helmet, "When did you!?..." taking a few steps back just as the girl appeared behind him.

The duo stood ready to fight him but a airship rises up and opens the hatch to allow the man in white inside. He turned around and held up a red gem, "End of the line, my speedy friends.", he throws the gem at their feet and fires with his cane, resulting in a large explosion.

He burst into laughter as he enters the airship, before he noticed that the young man had gathered the explosion into a orb in his hands before sending it back at the airship, which barely managed to dodge the assault of energy.

Removing the helmet, the young man had a handsome face, along with a head of spiky black hair and amber colored eyes which faintly glowed.

"Holy truck!" the girl exclaimed in surprise, "He's hot!"

The young man ignored her statement, the young man raised his hand, seemingly holding the ship in an invisible grip.

The airship was held in the air, unable to be moved as the young man's amber eyes started to glow red before sending a stream of red energy at the airship, causing heavy damage. A woman wearing red reaches hatch and her arms and chest light up like fire, aiming a burst of energy at the young man.

He managed to catch it with his free hand, sending it straight into the ground platters behind him, but breaking his concentration, forcing him to release the airship, the hatch close and the craft quickly fly away.

"Damn it..." he thought.

"You were amazing!" the girl said excited, looking all over him, "Are you a Huntsmen? Does your Semblance allow you to defeat all those mooks with one punch, man!? Can I have your autograph!?"

"I'm more of a seeker really." the young man said dryly, "No, no and I don't do autograph's." turning around but was stopped by the sudden appearance by a newcomer.

One was a middle-aged woman with very light-blonde hair tied back in a bun with a curl hanging down the right side of her face. Her eyes are bright green and she wear a thin ovular glasses. She was dressed in a white long-sleeved suit that exposes part of her chest, and puffy sleeves that tighten near the wrist before spreading back out near her hands. Her lower body has a black business skirt with buttons running in a vertical line up the front of it and lighter black-brown stockings.

"I hope that you realize that your actions tonight will not be taken lightly." the woman told them, "You put yourself and others in great danger."

"They started it!" Ruby said defensively as the young man ignored her as he intended to keep walking.

"Where do you think your going?" the woman said.

"Somewhere that's not here." he said but he came face-to-face with another newcomer.

This one was a middle-aged man with tousled gray hair and thin brown eyes. He has a light complexion, and sharp facial features. He wears shaded glass spectacles and a dark-green scarf with a small, purple, cross-shaped emblem on it. His outfit mainly consists of an unzipped black suit over a buttoned vest, with a green undershirt. He also wears black trouser shoes and long, dark-green pants.

"Greetings. My name is Ozpin, and this lady is Glyda Goodwitch.", the man now named Ozpin introduced himself and the woman, "And you? What do you call your self?"

"I'm Ruby Rose." Ruby said.

"Skywalker." the young man introduced himself, "Jason Skywalker."

Both Glynda and Ozpin exchanged a surprised look as Ruby told him, "Jason Skywalker? That's an unusual name."

"Your not the first to tell me that." he muttered with a small smile.

"What is an young man such as yourself doing around here?", Ozpin continued to asked, intrigued by this young man for some reason.

"Just traveling around." Jason said, picking up his helmet, "Going where my motorcycle takes me." and he turned to walk away.

"Wait!" Ozpin quickly, "Bravery like your deserves a reward. I have an offer for you, Mr. Skywalker."

"Sorry, Mr. Ozpin. I'm not in it for fortune or fame." Jason said waving it off as he jumped off the roof.

Mounting his motorcycle as he put on his helmet before driving off.


A few days later, Ruby had board a large airship heading to Beacon Academy. As she looked out the window, she is tackled by her older sister Yang, crushing the air out of her.

"Oh, I can't believe my baby sister is going to Beacon with me!" Yang said, "This is the best day ever!"

"Please stop." Ruby begged.

The older blonde released her sister, "But I'm so proud of you!" she said, "What you did was incredible! Everyone at Beacon is going to think you're the bee's knees."

"I don't want to be the 'bee's knees', okay?" Ruby said, "I don't want to be any kind of knees! I just want to be a normal girl with normal knees."

"What's with you?" Yang said, crossing her arms and tilting her head slightly, "Aren't you excited?"

"Of course I'm excited... I just... I got moved ahead two years." Ruby explained, "I don't want people to think I'm special or anything."

Yang gave her sister a one-armed hug, "But you are special." she said.

The two sisters turned their attention to a TV screen showing VNN, Vale News Network, playing nearby talking about another robbery and showing the same thief leader's mug shot.

"The robbery was led by nefarious criminal Roman Torchwick, the older of the Torchwick brother's, who continues to evade authorities. If you have any information on his whereabouts, please contact the Vale Police Department. Back to you, Lisa."

The mugshot changes to a new anchorwoman, with a photo of animal-eared demonstrators holding signs saying 'We are not Animals' followed by an image of the logo of a growling red wolf's head with three scratch marks.

"Thank you, Cyril. In other news, this Saturday's Faunus Civil Rights protest turned dark when members of the White Fang disrupted the ceremony. The once peaceful organization has now disrupted..."

The news feed is cut off as a hologram of Glynda replaces it.

"Hello, and welcome to Beacon!", the hologram said, "You are among a privileged few who have received the honor of being selected to attend this prestigious academy! Our world is experiencing an incredible time of peace, and as future Huntsmen and Huntresses, it is your duty to uphold it. You have demonstrated the courage needed for such a task, and now it is our turn to provide you with the knowledge and the training to protect our world." and with that said, the hologram disappears.

Ruby turns around, looking out of the window, admiring the scenery from below until she hears a passenger groaning and hunched over nearby, running to the back of the ship.

A few minutes later, the airship docks at the entrance of the school, and as soon as one lands, the boy who vomited emerges and goes over to the nearest trash can, hunching over it as he loses his lunch.

"Oh my gosh, sis! That kid's got a collapsible staff! And she's got a fire sword!" Ruby said excited, she tries getting closer, but Yang pulls her sister by the hood.

"Easy there, little sister." Yang said, "They're just weapons!"

"'Just weapons'? They're an extension of ourselves!" Ruby said offended,

"They're a part of us! Oh, they're so cool!"

"Well, why can't you swoon over your own weapon?" Yang pointed out, "Aren't you happy with it?"

As her sister talked, Ruby transformed her weapon into its scythe form, "Of course I'm happy with Crescent Rose! I just really like seeing new ones. It's like meeting new people, but better..."

"Ruby, come on." Yang said, playfully pushing her sister's hood down over her face, "Why don't you go try and make some friends of your own?"

"But..." she said taking off her hood, "Why would I need friends if I have you?"

"Well... Actually, my friends are here." Yang said as she was surrounded by a group of other students, "Gotta go catch up. 'Kay, see ya, bye!" and they all dash down the road.

Spinning and dizzy-eyed from Yang's sudden leaving, Ruby shouted, "Wait, where are you going!? Are we supposed to go to our dorms? Where are our dorms? Do we have dorms?" she stopped for a moment, still reeling, "I don't know what I'm doing..."

Ruby was about fall backwards against a luggage cart, knocking over a luggage cart but her hand was quickly grabbed by someone, stopping her from knocking everything.

"Don't worry." a gentle voice said, "I got you."

For a moment, Ruby thought it was Jason from a few nights ago who had caught her, but it was only because the young man in front of her had a very similar face.

Instead of black hair and amber eyes, this young man has blue eyes and medium-length blue hair, mostly parted to the left. He was dressed in a cyan dress shirt under a grey waist-coat and beige pants.

"Holy truck!" Ruby thought, "He's hot!"

"What are you doing!?" a female voice shouted as Ruby was pulled up to her feet.

Turning to the speaker was a young girl, dressed in a pale blue bolero jacket over a similarly colored thigh-length dress with a piece of black lace making up the neckline of the dress. The inside of the bolero is red and the sleeves turn blue as they get closer to her wrists.

"Sorry." Ruby apologized.

"Sorry!? Do you have any idea of the damage you could have caused?", the girl in white said angrily as she picked up one of her cases and opening it to reveal its twinkling-sounding contents, "This is Dust! Mined and purified from the Schnee quarry!"

The girl in white continued, holding out a vial of red Dust and shutting the case, "Dust! Earth, fire, Air, water! Are you even listening to me? Is any of this sinking in? What have you got to say for yourself!?"

"Hey, she said she was sorry, princess!" the blunette said, speaking up in defense of Ruby.

"It's heiress, actually." another voice added.

The three look over to see a girl with light complexion, with long, wavy black hair, and her eyes are orange. She wears a black ribbon tied in the form of a bow, while dressed in a black low-heeled boots and stockings that start off black at her hips, but gradually fade to purple as they near her shoes. On the outside of her stockings. She wears black ribbons on both of her arms, with a black detached sleeve and a silver band on her left

"Weiss Schnee, heiress to the Schnee Dust Company. One of the largest producers of energy propellant in the world." the girl said approaches with the bottle.

"Finally!" the girl now named Weiss said smugly, "Some recognition!"

"The same company infamous for its controversial labor forces and questionable business partners." the black haired girl added making Weiss get angry again.

"Wha... How dare you... The nerve of... Ugh!", Weiss gets up in Blake's face and takes the bottle from her, walking off in a huff as her helpers gather the luggage and follow.

"I promise I'll make this up to you!" Ruby said to the storming Weiss, still sorry, "I guess I'm not the only one having a rough first day... So, what's..." she turns around and sees the black haired girl walking off as well before turning to the male blunette.

"So, hey... Thanks for sticking up for me." Ruby said, sticking out her hand, "I am Ruby Rose by the way."

"Toshiyuki Sutakira." he said, shaking her hand, "But call me Toshi. That's what everyone does."

As they let go, they are approached by a tall teenage boy with dark-blue eyes that are emphasized by his messy blonde hair. He wears a white chest plate and shoulder armor. Under the armor, he wears a black hoodie with reddish-orange sleeves and an emblem hidden underneath the chest plate. He also wears blue pants with a white patch on the left knee.

"Hey... I'm Jaune.", he introduced himself, Toshi and Ruby introduced themselves to him.

"Aren't you the guy that threw up on the ship?" Toshi asked, earning a embarrassed nod from Jaune.


Toshi, Ruby and Jaune were now walking through Beacon inside the walls are filled with scenic trees, arching architecture, and a winding road alongside a river.

"All I'm saying is that motion sickness is a much more common problem than people let on!" Jaune exclaimed to the two.

"Look, I'm sorry!" Ruby said, rubbing the back of her head, "Vomit Boy was the first thing that came to mind."

"Oh, yeah? What if I called you Little Red?" Jaune said before pointing at Toshi, "Or him Pretty Boy?"

"I'm not pretty." Toshi mumbled with a raised eyebrow, "Am I?"

Ruby tried to change the subject, "So... I got this thing!" she said, pulling out Crescent Rose and stabs it into the ground.

"Whoa! Is that a scythe?" Jaune said impressed.

"No, it's obviously a broom." Toshi snarked as Ruby explained that Crescent Rose was also a customizable high-impact sniper rifle.

"Oh. That's cool! I got... this sword!" Jaune said, he unsheathes a blade, "And I've got a shield, too!", he gets his scabbard, raises his arm and expands the metal into his shield.

"So, what do they do?" Ruby asked touching the shield.

Jaune fumbles with the shield as it retracts off his arm, expands, and retracts again before putting it back in place and finally shrinking it down for good, placing it on his belt. "The shield gets smaller, so when I get tired of carrying it, I can just... put it away..."

"Wouldn't it weigh the same?" Toshi pointed out.

"Yeah... it does." Jaune remarks, before looking up to him, "So what's your weapon Toshi?"

"I use an family heirloom. My mother wielded it during many of the war's she took part in." Toshi told them, before turning to Jaune, "Be proud of your weapon Jaune, not many people can appreciation a classic's these days."

"Right, the classics...", he muttered, rubbing the back of his head.

"Wise words, Toshi, wise words." Ruby said with an approving nod, "Hey, where are we going?"

"I don't know." Toshi said, "I have been following Jaune."

"What? I have been following Ruby the whole time." Jaune added.

"But..." Ruby said, looking around, "I have been following Toshi the entire time!"

"You think there might be a directory? Maybe a food court? Some kind of recognizable landmark?" Jaune continued as the three looked around, "Is, uh... Is that a 'no'?"


After much difficulty the trio managed to find Beacon Academy's auditorium, filled to the brim with people. As they took in the room, their attention was drawn to a girl calling Ruby over.

"Ruby! Over here!" Yang yelled waving at her, "I saved you a spot!"

"Oh! I got to go!" Ruby said turning to Toshi, "Maybe see you after the ceremony?"

"Sure thing." Toshi said with a nod.

"Then it's a date!..." she said, a blush on her cheeks when she realized what she had said, "I-I mean not a date as in date, date. What I mean is..." but before she further embarrassed herself, she quickly walked away.

"Hey, what about me?" Jaune called after Ruby but she either didn't hear him or just ignored the blonde.

"Better luck next time." Toshi said, patting him on the back as he walked away.

"W-Wait for me!" Jaune said, walking after the blunette.

Once the younger sister her older sister, the blonde crossed her arms. "How's your first day going, little sister?" Yang said with a wink to Ruby, "Who was that tall, dark and blue guy?"

"I-It is nothing like that!" Ruby denied quickly.

"Ah, little Ruby has a crush already!" Yang said, throwing an arm around her, "So how did you two meet?"

"I almost tripped over some crabby girl's luggage, and he caught me." Ruby explained, "And I just wanted her to stop yelling at me, then he stood up to her."

Before she was interrupted as their attention is drawn to the stage, where Professor Ozpin is readying the microphone, with Glynda beside him.

"I'll... keep this brief." the headmaster began his speech, "You have traveled here today in search of knowledge, to hone your craft and acquire new skills, and when you have finished, you plan to dedicate your life to the protection of the people."

"But I look among you, and all I see is wasted energy, in need of purpose, direction. You assume knowledge will free you of this, but your time at this school will prove that knowledge can only carry you so far. It is up to you to take the first step."

As Ozpin leaves, Glynda steps up to talk, "You will gather in the ballroom tonight; tomorrow, your initiation begins. Be ready. You are dismissed."


Later that night, the students are splayed out in sleeping bags. Yang comes crashing down next to Ruby as she wrote in her journal.

"It's like a big slumber party!" Yang said.

"I don't think dad would approve of all the boys, though." Ruby added, not looking up.

"I know I do!" Yang purrs, watching several muscular, shirtless guys and Jaune, dressed in feetie pajamas, waving to her, which makes her groan, before she turns to her side getting a mischievous smile, "Hey look, it's your blueberry stud muffin."

Ruby looked up from her journal to see Toshi wearing a cyan t-shirt, and a pair of black boxers, a rolled up sleeping bag under his arm.

"Over here!" Yang shouted, waving at him.

"What are you doing?" Ruby whispered.

"Calling a hot stud over." she whispered back.

"Hey Ruby and..." Toshi said with a wave.

"Yang Xaio Long! Ruby's older sister!" she introduced herself with a smile, throwing an arm around him, "Thanks for looking after my little sister!"

"Personal space." Toshi told the blonde, before looking at Ruby, "We meet again."

"Yes we are!" Ruby said with a slight smile.

"Yeah, it is." he said, throwing Yang's arm off him, "What are you writing about?"

"Oh, just a letter to the gang back at Signal. I promised to tell them all about Beacon and how things are going." Ruby explained a little embarrassed.

"It's good to stay in contact with your friends, even if your apart." Toshi said with a nod, "It can be weird at first, being in a new place with no friends."

"Well, you have me!" Ruby said cheerfully, "And I have you! So that's one friend!"

"And you have me! Plus two friends!" Yang added cheerfully, "That's a two hundred percent increase!"

Toshi gave a soft smile, before noticing a candle being lighted nearby, and the black haired girl from earlier that day is leaning against a wall, reading her book.

"You know her?" Yang asked before Ruby explained what happened that morning, "Well, now's your chance!" she grabs Ruby's arm and lifts her up.

Getting up, Toshi followed the two sisters over to the girl.

The black haired girls looks over her book to see Ruby unsuccessfully struggling against Yang's grip as she leads her sister over to her spot before letting go.

"Hellooooo!" Yang said, "I believe you two may know each other?"

"Who are you?", the black haired girl asked, much to the embarrassed of Ruby, who introduced herself, "Okay.", and with that the black haired girl turned back to her book.

"So... I'm Toshiyuki Sutakira, but call me Toshi." he began, "What's your name?"

The black haired girl sighing as she's distracted yet again, "Blake.", she answered.

"Well, Blake, I'm Yang!" Yang said, "Ruby's older sister! I like your hair." but Blake only seemed irritated.

"Girls, she isn't interested in talking to us." Toshi said understandingly, turning to Ruby and Yang, "Let's leave her to her book."

"Thank you." Blake said, not looking up.

"By the way, what is it about?", he added, surprising the girl, "The book? What's it about?"

"Well..." Blake started, before she began to explain with a slight smile, "I-it's about a man with two souls, each fighting for control over his body."

"Sound's interesting." Toshi said with a honest smile, "Maybe I can borrow it sometime?"

"I love books.", Ruby said, getting in on what Toshi was trying to do, "Yang used to read to me every night before bed. Stories of heroes and monsters... They're one of the reasons I want to be a Huntress!"

Blake laughed a little, "And why is that?" she asked, "Hoping you'll live happily ever after?"

Ruby nodded "Well, I'm hoping we all will. As a girl, I wanted to be just like the Legendary Knights..." Ruby reminisced with a smile about her childhood dream, "Someone who fought for what was right, and protected people who couldn't protect themselves!"

"That's... very ambitious for a child." Blake said, her smile turns into a frown, "Unfortunately, the real world isn't the same as a fairy tale."

"No, it's not." Toshi agreeing with her, shaking his head slowly before looking serious, "That's why it's up to some of us try to make the Worlds a better place than it was when we find it. I know that's what I try to do. I won't always be successful. But that's life."

"Well, Toshi, Ruby, Yang, it's a pleasure to have..." Blake said laughing slightly, before being interrupted by Weiss who comes storming to them in her own pajamas.

"What in the world is going on over here!?" Weiss demanded to know, "Don't you realize some of us are trying to sleep?"

"Oh, it's you." Toshi said unimpressed.

"Guys, she's right! People are trying to sleep!" Ruby said.

"So now your on my side!?" Weiss said irritated.

"I was always on your side!" Ruby argued.

"Yeah, what's your problem with my sister?" Yang said, coming to her little sister's defense, "She's only trying to be nice!"

"She's a hazard to my health!" Weiss argued back.

"Oh, god." Toshi thought with wide eyes, "Did McGrath and Rarity had a secret love child?"


The next day, as Toshi was getting his stuff out of locker number 626 as he is passed by a young man followed by a red haired girl skipping after him when he saw Ruby all giddy.

"So, you seem chipper this morning." Toshi said to her as he walked up to her, leaning against the locker next to her.

"Yep! No more awkward small talk or 'getting-to-know-you' stuff." Ruby responded as she strokes Crescent Rose as she sighs happily, "Today, I get to let my sweetheart do the talking."

"Well, remember, Ruby, you're not the only one going through initiation." Yang said with a raised finger, "If you wanna grow up, you're gonna have to meet new people and learn to work together."

"You sound like dad! first of all: What does meeting new people have to do with fighting?" she said, puffing out her chest proudly, "And secondly: I don't need people to help me grow up! I drink milk!"

"Bonds with people can give you strength." Toshi said, earning a surprised look from Ruby, "That's what my older brother use to say.", as an announcement plays on the intercom system.

"Would all first-year students please report to Beacon Cliff for initiation? Again, all first-year students report to Beacon Cliff immediately." the voice of Glynda came out of the intercom.

Toshi pushes himself off the locker, "Well it's show time." he said, making his way outside with Ruby and Yang following him.


On Beacon Cliff, overlooking a forest down below. Several students are standing on silver tiles in front of a mug-holding Ozpin and Glynda with her tablet.

"For years, you have trained to become warriors." he addressed the students, "And today, your abilities will be evaluated in the Emerald Forest."

"Now, I'm sure many of you have heard rumors about the assignment of 'teams'. Well, allow us to put an end to your confusion.", Glynda told them as she stepped forward, "Each of you will be given teammates... today."

"These teammates will be with you for the rest of your time here at Beacon. So it is in your best interest to be paired with someone with whom you can work well." Ozpin added, before continuing, "That being said, the first person you make eye contact with after landing will be your partner for the next four years. After you've partnered up, make your way to the northern end of the forest. You will meet opposition along the way. Do not hesitate to destroy everything in your path... or you will die."

Jaune laughs nervously, turning to his left to see Toshi giving him an encouraging nod, his arms crossed in front of his chest.

"You will be monitored and graded through the duration of your initiation, but our instructors will not intervene. You will find an abandoned temple at the end of the path containing several relics. Each pair must choose one and return to the top of the cliff. You will guard that item, as well as your standing, and grade you appropriately. Are there any questions?"

Jaune raising his hand but is ignored.

"Good! Now, take your positions." Everyone strikes a pose on their tile. Yang raises her fists, Ruby readies her body, Toshi lowers his fist puffing out his chest and Jaune is still raising his hand.

"Uh, sir? I've got, um... a question." Jaune said as he misses the tile under Weiss rising up into a springboard, rocketing into the air and over the forest, as the platforms activate down the line.

At her turn, Yang winks at her younger sister and her new friend, puts on a pair of aviators, and flies off shouting "Woohoooooooo!" a second before Ruby, and finally Toshi joins her.


There ya go, first chapter of the reboot, hope you enjoyed.

Yes I know neither the names of Jason Skywalker or Toshiyuki Sutakira follow the color name rule, but it's intended that they don't follow it. If your familiar with my other works in what I call the 'Arcmoani Network' you know why, or else you'll see.

Many thanks to everyone who read it, you beauties.

If you enjoy my work, don't forget to leave a review and I hope to see you all next time.

Bye for now.
