ok this took a while and I got to say this chapter could have been done better but hey I did the best that I could, now onto the story


Chapter 7 spiders, I fucking hate spiders

"it had to be spiders!" I yelled aiming devils advocate at the disturbing looking grimm I pulled the trigger and watched as the bullet literally hit the grimms head and it looked like it just knocked back.

"what the fuck?" I questioned as I landed on the ground with a small thud

"uh Hamish a little help here!" I heard ruby call out as my eyes widen as I quickly remembered ruby, shit

"hang tight ruby!" I yelled quickly reloading another mag into devils advocate, I ran around to the right as I held devils advocate up pulling the trigger once more he watched as the grimm's head was knocked back once more causing it to focus all of its attention on him

"come on come on come on come on think think think" I muttered to myself as I tried to figure out what I should do now

Well other than the obvious-

"Fuck I hate spiders"

3rd pov

While Hamish distracted the large spider human grimm yang and everybody else quickly ran into aid the small huntress

"ruby are you alright!?" yang exclaimed as she quickly ran up and pried the feather that was keeping her cloak tied down

"im fine b-but Hamish" ruby said as she pointed at him as he continued distracting the grimm

"what about him you saw how he took care of the deathstalker, come on we need to go" weiss said as she quickly pulled ruby up

"no no no thats not it, Hamish is in trouble!" ruby said as weiss stopped

"excuse me?" she asked as everyone stared at the red reaper in confusion

"i don't get it either, whats the big problem?" jaune wondered too as he wasn't so sure until he stopped and remembered something

"oh ooooooh oooooooooooh thats not good" jaune said as his eyes widen in shock as he remembered something he and Hamish talk about some time last night

Flashback to last nights dinner

"hey jaune quick question what your biggest fear?" Hamish asked randomly as jaune looked from his meal and stared at his newly made friend in confusion

"i uh where did this come from?" jaune asked awkwardly as Hamish paused from eating his large chicken burger

"because I got bored now answer the question" Hamish said with a shrug

"fine fine I guess disappointing my family would be my biggest fear" jaune said as Hamish nodded

"wow heavy mines spiders" Hamish said nonchalantly as jaune just stared at him in confusion

"wait what, Really? spiders?" jaune asked as he thought Hamish was pulling his leg

"oh no I'm dead serious, fuck spiders elgh" Hamish said with a shiver as jaune couldn't help but file that piece of info into the back of his mind of one of the things that made Hamish not scary

"well hopefully we wont meet any spider grimm tomorrow" jaune said with a smile as Hamish nodded

"yeah sure lets hope" Hamish said as he quickly dropped the subject and went back to devouring his chicken burger with eagerness of a starving animal

Huh guess the stereotype was right

Foxes do love chicken

That or Hamish just loves chicken

(its true I do in fact love chicken)

End flashback

"what? Whats the problem!?" weiss exclaimed loudly as jaune looked at Hamish with slight fear while ruby stared at him with sadness

"Hamish has an arachnophobia" yang finally stated in front of everyone as their eyes widen

"oooooh thats not good, not good at all" blake stated as she looked back at Hamish as she focused on his movements, more sporadic and constantly moving and hes literally going nowhere near it, oh yeah he was afraid very afraid.

"we need to do something!" ruby said as she was about shoot up but was stopped as yang held her

"no you don't, you cant just run into something like ruby" yang stated as ruby tried to pry herself out of yangs hold

"but we have to do something!" ruby yelled when she suddenly found a hand on her shoulder

"ruby we know but we cant run in there without a plan" jaune said as ruby looked up to him as he tried to give her a confident smile

"hes right red person!" nora exclaimed with a grin as she popped up to the other side of ruby as she had a large grin on her face

"their right but what kind of plan do we have to take on that thing and the nevermore?" blake asked as ever the realist as everyone looked up at the circling

"well this might be a long shot" jaune said getting everyone's attention

"but it might work" jaune said as he had a smile on his face

Back to 1st pov

Shit shit shit why the hell did it have to be a spider I hate spiders

Jumping backwards I instantly dodge an instantly fatality cause by acid spit, fucking acid spit, this thing had acid spit!

Damn it and I cant lose it with out leaving everyone open to this things well things!

Loading another magazine into devils advocate I quickly placed my claymore back into standby mode and placed it back onto the back of my belt, no point in having that out as I am going no where near that things face.

Now holding devil's advocate with both hands I aimed at one of the arms and pulling the trigger I watched as a large chunk of black flesh turned into smoke and ash as it screeched in pain and opened its mouth as its green acid shot out

"shit!" I yelped in shock launching myself into a dodge roll as I managed to get out the way of that shit

Damn it staring up at the spider grimm I couldn't help but shiver in slight fear I mean it looks like a fucked up spider for gods sake!

"should have fucked with canon, really shouldnt have fucked with it" I stated as at this point in time I actually regret fucking with it

And I really mean fucked it, royally hard if I will add

"HAMISH!" hearing my name I looked up in time to watch as a flying yang flew right into the grimm head knocking its head to the side causing it to move its body to the side

"Hamish!" hearing my name again I watched as ruby up to me and tackle hugged me

"oh I'm so glad your ok" ruby said as I could help but breath a sigh of relief and hugged her back

"me neither little red me neither" I said but stopped as I watched as the giant grimm shook its head and turned it back towards me

"here we go again" I muttered but suddenly out of nowhere I heard another screech but this time it was up as a nevermore came flying over as blake and weiss were riding on top of it

"what the hell?" I question as I had the most confused expression on my face

"nora now!" I heard jaune yell as my eyes looked over to the other end as there stood nora as she held her grenade launcher in hand and she had her signature grin launched a small barrage of explosives that hit the spider grimms back causing it to lurch forwards and growl in pain as it quickly turned itself around

"pyrrha, ren disorient it!" I heard jaune order as I watched as a bronze shield flew up and slammed into the grimms head causing it to shake its head while small green like pellets hit the side of its head as it was now confused?

Why the hell would it be confused I'm confused, what the fuck is going on!?

"Hamish come on we need to go!" ruby said as she quickly dragged me up onto my feet as we quickly ran off to the side

"Hamish jaunes got a plan and all we need you to do is kill the nevermore when he says so" ruby said as I blinked

"wait what, what do you mean-" suddenly everyone become slightly more clearer and clearer

JNPR distracts

RWBY sets up

I go in for the kill

Even it only kills one of them the other is just going to be grounded long enough for us get the fuck out of dodge

"jaune you fucking genius!" I yelled as ruby grinned happily

"i told weiss you'd understand!" ruby said as I grinned

"oh this deserves a good show" I exclaimed as I pulled out my claymore watching as the blade shot outwards I grinned as I twisted the handle and pulled as it revealed a slot.

"your seriously going to use her!" ruby exclaimed in excitement as I grinned

"oh I am!" I yelled as I placed the top of devils advocate in the slot

*CLICK CLACK*

Hearing the click I shivered in excitement as I watched as the claymore started to transform, the blade split in half as a long barrel shot out and stopped just an inch outwards from the tips of the blades as they quickly pulled themselves back forming a long boxed triangle. From there the bottom of the hilt extended and suddenly folded itself into stock as the last piece came from the guard as an LED holographic reddot sight popped up.

"goodbye devil's advocate, hello angels fury" I said with a grin as I gripped the pistol gripped trigger and quietly grabbed the underside of the now badass looking sniper rifle

"alright ruby tell jaune I'm ready I'm packing and even this doesnt work hes earned my respect" I said as ruby nodded and quickly shot off ready to finish this plan, this brilliant and insane plan

"now this is my kinda plan" I said with a grin as I aimed at one of the spider grimms legs

"my kinda plan indeed" was all I said as I pulled the trigger

*KABOOM CRACK*

Gritting my teeth in slight pain I instantly remembered 3 things

First This baby's got recoil that can kill a mother fucker

Second Qrow's scared of ruby even looking at it and its Qrow fucking Qrow

Third And finally I remembered why the council banned devils advocate from ever combining with my claymore

"i am so going to jail for this" I said with gritted teeth but grin as I saw the leg that I aimed for was nothing but ash and smoke

"ok fuck jail, make that prison" I said with a small wince as I cracked my neck but grinned in joy

3rd pov couple moments before Hamish pulls the trigger of angels fury

"ren its coming to you, nora, yang whack its arms when it comes swinging, pyrrha get ready to disorient it!" jaune ordered as he stood off to the side holding his shield and sword at the just in case well thats what hes been telling himself to instill confidence which was thankfully working slightly

"jaune!" ruby shouted as she rocketed over to the blonde knight as she took a couple pot shots at the grimm's head making it screech in annoyance

"ruby is Hamish ready!?" jaune yelled as he quickly jumped out of the way of an acid like blast that was aimed for him

"yeah hes ready just waiting on you for your signal and boy is he ready!" ruby exclaimed with an excited grin

"why does that scare me more than assure me?" jaune wondered as he pushed himself back onto his feet he kept his eye on the grimm spider

*KABOOM CRACK!*

With the sound jaunes eyes widen in shock as one of the spiders middle legs exploded

Literally exploded

"what the hell?" jaune asked as everyone who was on the ground stared in shock as one of its large armoured legs just exploded well except for yang and ruby of course

"oh he didn't" yang exclaimed in shock as memories of that certain weapon made her go stiff, but then quickly relaxed as she remembered that this was a good thing

"yes, yes he did!" ruby exclaimed as she watched as the large grimm stumbled for a second and then stopped

"uuuuuh what is it doing?" ruby questioned as she held her scythe up ready to fire at the grimm as it lurched forwards

Suddenly the grimms head flew back giving off a large deafening screech that made everyone one psychically freeze

Well everyone except jaune of course, for some unexplained reason

As jaune stood there watching in shock he watched as the giant spider grimm's top half slam it self down on the ground while its hands latched onto the ground and growled in pain as jaune watched as its back leg that was blown off slowly tried to grow itself back.

Knowing that this was the time for action jauen knew he and everyone else needed to do something now

"shit nora nail it!" shaking out his fear jaune quickly called out an order to nora, but she didn't move, which confused jaune as he looked over to her and saw she was dead forzen still

"nora, nora!" jaune yelled trying to get the young explosive personality out of her fear frozen but looked it looked like she was permently stuck there

So turning his head to the second power house jaune was about to order yang to jump in but stopped as he saw yang was in the same position as nora in fact Looking around now, it slowly dawned on jaune that out of everyone here he was literally the only one who was moving

Which confused him until her head a a horrid gurgle of huff that sounded awfully like laughing

"oh no" jaune said quickly turning his head back to the grimm and with wide saw the grimms head head was turned towards him

The grimm stared directly, acid drooling out of its mouth while it continued to its horrid gurgle like laugh as it took immediate enjoyment in jaunes instant fear

Jaune slowly took a step back while gulping in fear as he nearly stumbled with said step but stopped himself

he was about to run away, jaune arc was the teenager who took a big risk in forging his transcripts just so he can join an academy he had no real right to being in was about to run away like he did with his home.

And jaune would have continued to run away from everything as he would for the rest of his life, a coward through and through it would a appear

But for some reason he couldn't find himself running, his feet were planted in place

Why wouldnt his body move?

Why didn't he just turn and run?

Jaune kept asking himself the same question over and over in his head as he continued to wonder more and more

but suddenly all the wondering stopped dead in its tracks as he suddenly asked himself

if he did ran then what would happen to everyone else?

'They'd die most likely' a side of jaunes head stated as he couldn't help but cringe at the thought

'not like we can do anything about it though' the same side of his head said making jaune grit his teeth seeing this as a very hopeless agenda

'and yet your the one who came up with the plan' jaune couldn't deny it but he didn't expect the grimm to literally petrify the shit out everyone with just a loud screech

'still your moving and everyone's not, so what are you going to do then?' jaune didn't know if he should be answering or but he felt his entire body answer for him

'just cause the body move doesnt mean it doesnt need the mind to be there' jaune couldn't help but agree as he watched as he silently charged with shield in front while his other hand dragged his sword alongside

'so whats really stopping you from really helping your body?' jaune didn't know how to answer but for some reason he had to go with the fact that he was scared, he very very scared

'everyone is scared, but whats the difference between those who are scared and do nothing and those who are scared and do something?' jaune didn't know but he had a feeling it had to do with when their body moves without even thinking

Cause as far as he could guess he was doing just that

'correct, thats what separates the alpha's from the omegas' jaune's eyes slowly widen in confusion but quickly narrowed as he watched in shock as his body jumped up and climbed itself onto the spider grimms arm, sprinting up it as if he was springing up an extremely steep jaune watched and felt as said incline get bigger and bigger.

'so alpha what you gonna do?' jaune didn't know but for some reason doing something was better than doing nothing

"RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGHHHHHH" jaune roared as he felt himself leap off of the grimms arm as he pulled his sword upwards the grimm's eyes glared red as jaune brought his sword forward stabbing it forwards right into the middle of the spider grimm's left upper eye.

*ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRR!*

The grimm howled in pain as it seemed to break everyone out of their petrified state

Hamish blinked in shock and quickly shook his head as he quickly aimed angel's fury back at the spider grimm and froze for a second as he watched as jaune dangled there with his sword in the middle of the spider grimm's eye

"ok thats different" Hamish mutter and froze as he heard the nevermore's screech as he quickly aimed up to the sky and smirked watching as his target came flying in low as small black glifs appeared over its top half of the body

"weiss really knows how to make a moving target" Hamish muttered as he watched as while weiss was grounding the grimm blake was essentially steering it and with the look on her face it was getting really difficult to do so.

"nora, yang are you awake? cause I'm going to need some help around about now!" jaune screamed in fear as he held onto dear life while the spider grimm tried to shake him off

"jaune let go!" ruby shouted as he did so quickly as she pulled crescent rose upwards aiming for the left bottom eye pulling the trigger and watched as said eye exploded with black blood and ash causing the grimm to howl once more in pain

"RAAAAAGH!" yang shouted as she and nora launched themselves towards the grim as they slammed both weapons in each opposing sides of the grimms face as they sent the grimm recoiling backwards as cracks appeared on either side of its mask

Jaune grumbled as he landed on his ass but quickly turned and ran away just as yang and nora attacked

"pyrrha ren continuous fire on the grimms head yang nora stay back nevermore in coming!" ruby ordered as she pyrrha and ren quickly held up their weapons and fired at the grimms head while yang and nora quickly moved back just in time to watch as blake and weiss came flying in on a nevermore.

"weiss if we die we blame jaune!" blake yelled to weiss as she tightened her hold on her ribbon that was tied around the nevermore's neck while who hanged on behind her as her rapier was stabbed into the nevermore back

"agreed!" weiss yelled as she increased the weight of her glifs causing the grimm to go lower and lower

"alright I got the target get ready to jump!" blake yelled as she aimed right at the now groundish spider grimm that was slowly trying to push its top half back up

"come on come on come on" Hamish repeated constantly as he continued to aim at the nevermore as it came crashing down

"alright now!" blake exclaimed as she untied her ribbon and jumped off while weiss quickly followed after as she quickly pried her rapier out of the nevermore's back

"HAMISH NOW!" jaune yelled as he pointed at the nevermore

"gotcha bitch!" Hamish yelled with a grin aiming his rifle in the middle of the nevermore's body and pulled the trigger

*KABOOM CRACK*

Suddenly the mid section of the nevermore exploded while the nevermore's top half screeched in pain as it slammed directly into the middle of the spider grimm's body everyone in front watch in mild disgust as the beak of the nevermore impaled itself right through the middle of the spider grimm's chest(kinda like from alien)

As they all watched they all expected the spider grimm to stand back and attack but it didn't after a couple minutes of silence it was finally stopped when Hamish casually yelled "why the fuck are you just standing around!?"

"we don't know if its dead yet!" ruby yelled back as silence was all she had until Hamish yelled back "did you poke it!?"

"did I wha? why would I poke it!?" ruby yelled back

"just to see if its dead!" Hamish yelled as ruby looked at everyone else as they shrugged unsure what to say next

"oh you know fuck it I'll check!" Hamish yelled

"wait hows he going to check if hes all the way over-"

*KABOOM CRACK!*

Jaune stopped his sentence as the spider grimm's head exploded which everyone recoiled in shock and then jaune yelped as his sword stabbed itself right in front of his feet

"ruby I think its dead!" Hamish yelled as ruby looked back at everyone as they couldn't help but laugh

"well this was sure something" yang said with a smile as everyone couldn't help but agree, accept blake who just stared at her partner as she like her cousin and jaune were insane, absolutely insane

And just thinking about she was just as insane for going through with said plan

But she didn't want to think about that

Not now, since said plan actually worked

some how

LINEBREAK

Later in beacon's huge ass hall

1st pov

"Jaune arc, pyrrha nikos, nora valkyre and lie ren together the four of you have collected the white rook pieces and in so from today onwards you will all be known as team JNPR, lead by juane arc, congratulations young man" hearing ozpin's voice out jaune's leadership made me smile as I stared as jaune looked stunned at him being leader

"well you don't see that everyday" I said with a smile that was quickly wiped away while turned my head and stared at the latching monkey

"ruby get off me" I said as she gave me a large grin in reply

"no can do, you'll just run away" yang said as she tapped my shoulder as I couldn't help but sigh

"im not going to run away yang for gods sake" I said as she just smirked at me

"now finally ruby rose, weiss schnee, blake belladonna and yang xiao long" ozpin called as I watched as ruby jumped off me and quickly walked on stage with everyone else

"you four have collected the white knight pieces and today you will be known as team RWBY, lead by ruby rose" ozpin said as ruby's eyes widened in surprise as she was quickly hugged by yang

Good for them

Sigh too bad I don't have a team or anything

Looking down with a small frown I couldn't help but feel like I did everything for nothing once again(thats another story for another time)

"sigh guess this is what I really get for fucking with canon" I muttered to myself as I was about to turn around and move

"and finally we usually don't have these circumstances but today we seemed to have an interesting odd number of initiates and as me and my colleagues have reviewed many of the initiations footage and we think it would be best if we allowed this person into our school, so please Hamish Branwen please stand on stage" ozpin said as my eyes widen

Wait hold on what?

Suddenly feeling myself pushed I looked over my shouder and saw a grinning yang and ruby as they both had their thumbs up

Hmph thanks for the push

Slowly moving onto the stage nervously I quietly wondered what the fuck was ozpin doing?

"as of today Hamish you will be joining team RWBY as the special role of being their support partner, as it entails that you are team RWBY's support you will be helping them through what would be counted as thick and thin as that is what all teams are expected to go through in my academy, understood?" ozpin asked as I nodded my head slowly, understanding what he meant

"then I officially welcome you to beacon" ozpin said with a smile as I just stared at him blankly as applause washed all through the hall

"why?" I asked unsure as to what the hell was ozpin doing

"because young man I too do believe that everyone deserves a second chance" ozpin said as he gave me a large smile as I continuted to stare at him in confusion

What the hell is he talking about? Second chances-ooooooooh

My eyes widen as ozpin nodded his head

"how do you know?" I asked

"a dusty old crow told me" ozpin said as I sighed of course he did, why wouldnt he?

"old man" I said in annoyance as ozpin gave a small chuckle

"yes indeed now I believe you have a chance to celebrate" ozpin said as I looked over to my shoulder as I saw a cheering from ruby, yang, nora and jaune as everyone else just clapped politely, even weiss as well.

"sigh guess this will be an interesting year indeed" was all I said as I walked over and grinned at my cousins

So what if I fucked with canon,

It doesnt mean I'm not going to stop fucking with it

Nope not at all

Hell maybe theres hope for me after all?

Chapter 7 end


alright done and done

now time to explain that jaune being well the alpha thing, well how do I explain that?

well for one ive just been thinking jaune is well hes jaune a basic blank canvas that just needs something on it so in this case despite it being really annoying to try and figure it out what I could do with I decided well jaune needed more character, he needed something that defined him as more of a future leader so now hes well the metaphorical alpha.

why?

well for the sake of because its better than him doing fuck all nothing during this entire thing

now that's out of the way I don't think theres anything more that I should say

well other than the obvious happy new years!

now then what else is there?

oh well I guess theres the joining team rwby cliché, well I gotta say sorry about that that was literally all I could think of at the time so sorry for not being more imaginative about joining beacon like so.

so before you leave don't forget to leave a
