Doctor Ooblecks class
Jacob and his team are in Doctor Ooblecks class trying to keep up with the professor who has to be hyped up on some kind of drug. "How in the hell is he going so fast its like he teleports?" Dax asks exasperated. "I don't know but we might as well try to pay attention." Ethan says whipping his head back and forth trying to keep up with the professor.
"This is prior to the Faunus Rights Revolution, more popularly known as theFaunus War! Humankind was quite, quite adamant about centralizing Faunus population in Menagerie. Now! While this must feel like ancient history to many of you, it is imperative to remember that these are relatively recent events! Why, the repercussions of the uprising can still be seen to this day! Now! Have any of you been subjugated or discriminated because of your Faunus heritage?" The professor asks causing a few students including Jacob and Ethan to raise their hands.
"Dreadful, simply dreadful! Remember, students, it is precisely this kind of ignorance that breeds violence! I mean, just look at what happened to White Fang! Now, which one of you young scallions can tell me what many theorize to be the turning point in the third year of the War?" Ethan raises her hand. "The Battle at Fort Castle." He answers.
"Precisely! And, who can tell me the advantage the Faunus had over General Lagune's forces?" The professor ask when Cardin throws a paper ball at Jaune causing him to wake up. "Mr. Arc! Finally contributing to class! This is excellent, what is the answer?" Oobleck asks him. Jaune stutters a few times before answering "binoculars" causing Pyrrah and Jacob's team to facepalm.
"Very funny, Mr. Arc! Cardin! Perhaps you would care to share your thoughts on the subject!" He asks Cardin. "Well, I know it's a lot easier to train an animal than a soldier." Cardin says. "Say that again Cardin and I'll make sure that next time it will be Alisson's bladed heel going inter your dick." Jacob tells him. Seeing things are going to soon escalate unless someone interrupts Ethan stands up. "The answer is night vision, Many Faunus are known to have nearly-perfect sight in the dark, General Lagune was inexperienced, and made the mistake of trying to ambush the Faunus in their sleep. His massive army was outmatched, and the general was captured." Ethan answers
Cardin started to get up from his seat when Oobleck interrupted. "Mr Winchester sit down in your chair, You and Mr. Arc will be staying after class for additional readings." They both groan while Oobleck continues talking.
After class ends everyone walks out while Jacob and Pyrrah stay behind to wait for Jaune. After a few minutes Oobleck speed out of the room before Jaune and Cardin walks out when Cardin pushes him to the ground cause Jaune to groan. "I have an idea follow me." Pyrrah tells Jaune pulling him along while Jacob follows behind in silence. They soon reach the roof of the building causing Jaune to look over the edge. "Pyrrah, i know i'm going through a hard time right now but im not that depressed." Pyrrah looks at him confused before she realizes what he means."N-n-no! That's not why I brought you up here, Jaune, I know you're having a difficult time in class and that you're still not the strongest of fighters, so I want to help you!"
"We can train up here after class where nobody can bother us." Pyrrah tells him. "You think i need help?" Jaune asks dejectedly. "No, that's not what I meant." she says. "But you just said it." he tells her. "Jaune, everybody needs a little push from time to time. It doesn't make you any different from the rest of us. You made it to Beacon! That speaks volumes of what you're capable of!"
"Your wrong i don't belong here." Jacob perks up at that. "That's a terrible thing to say, of course you belong here." Pyrrah tells him. "No, I don't, I wasn't really accepted into Beacon." he says while Pyrrah looked at him shocked. "What do you mean?" she asks confused. "I mean I didn't go to combat school, I didn't pass any tests. I didn't earn my spot at this Academy, I lied! I got my hands on some fake transcripts, and I lied!" he tells her.
"But why?" Pyrrah asks. "Cause this is always what I've wanted to be, my father, my grandfather, and his father before him were all warriors! They were all heroes! I wanted to be one, too. I was just never good enough." he tells her "I'm tired of being the lovable idiot, stuck in the tree while his friends fight for their lives! Don't you understand? If I can't do this on my own, then what good am I?" he says. "Just, leave me alone." he tells her causing her to look down saddened. "If that is what you think is best." she says walking away until Jacob walks up putting his hand on her chest causing her to stop. "Stay here." He tells her before walking up to Jaune. "What do you want." Jaune asks. Jacob walked up to him before driving his right hand into his gut causing him to collapse tot ground groaning in pain. "Jaune!" Pyrrah yells before Jacob motions for her to stay still. "What the hell man?" Jaune yells at him. "Get up." He tells him. Jaune doesn't respond still on the ground groaning. "Get the fuck up you fucking bastard." Jacob yells at him. Jaune starts to get up before Jacob plants his knee into his gut causing Jaune to collapse to his knees. "Now you listen to me, you will not be able to do shit by yourself. So i'm going to have you do something." Jacob tells him causing Jaune to look up at him. I'm giving you two weeks to train then me and you are going to fight. If you can bring my aura down halfway i'll keep your secret but if I beat you then im straight to Ozpin and i'm going to tell him about this. So if you want to even land a hit on me your going to need help." he says before walking to his dorm.
When he gets to his dorm he walks in and collapses to his bed. "You alright?" Dax asks him while polishing his dust infused brass knuckles. "Yeah im fine." Jacob says his voice muffled by his pillow. Allison sits on his bed and starts to scratch his ears. "Do you need anything Jacob." she asks. "No i'm fine but can you keep doing that, it feels pretty good." He says causing her to chuck and she keeps scratching.
Two weeks later after Forever Fall
Jacob is in the arena with his team waiting for Jaune to arrive. "He sure is taking his time." Jacob says impatiently. Jaune walks into the arena alongside RWBY and JNPR. "You ready?" Jacob asks as RWBY and NPR walks to the stands. "Ready as I'll ever be." Jaune says taking out his sword and shield. "Good Luck." Jacob says extending the blades on his glaive. Dax walks up to the side of the arena. "Ready guys?" he asks causing them both to nod. "Ok then fight." he says starting the fight causing Jaune to charge at Jacob.
Jacob goes to sidestep but is caught off guard when Jaune saw it coming and slashes to the side of him taking a decent chunk of his aura. Jaune goes in with more slashes while Jacob blocks most of them but still chipping away at his aura. Jacob jumps back and throws some shurikens infused with fire dust causing Jaune to lose at least half of his aura. Jaune starts to run at him. Jacob goes to jump over him but when he jumps Jaune grabs him by the leg and slams him down to the ground. He was about to try to attack again when the buzzer sounds, "Thats is the match." Dax says. Jacob and Jaune looks at their aura meters and they see Jacob's aura at 45% and Jaunes at 20%. Jaune won. "Good job man." Jacob says trying to walk but passes out. 'He has great potential' was the last thing he thought before succumbing to blackness.
