Jaune returned to his dorm after talking with Fiona. She was very interesting, to say the least, and very funny to, her jokes were much better than Yang's... don't tell anyone he thought that.

Anyway, Jaune had a pretty good time with Fiona, she had this amazing feeling just being around her, not to mention Jaune had found it pretty cute when her ears flapped, they always did when Jaune complimented her. Jaune found he could relate to her a lot, apparently, Fiona had 6 brothers, her being the middle child, Jaune had also told her about Saphron and his other 6 sisters. Both had a pretty good laugh at that.

Jaune entered his dorm only to find RWBY along with Oscar, Ren, and Nora. everyone giving him different looks. Yang was smugly smiling at him, Ruby was to but not the way Yang was, Weiss, smiling as well, though, hers was much softer, Blake was also smiling just like Yang. Nora looked like she was about to give Jaune a back crushing hug and Ren was holding her back but was also smiling at him as well, while oscar was just looking at him with a dorky smile.

"um... hey, what's up guys?" Jaune asked

"Well, is there something you wanna tell is fearless leader~?" Nora asked

"yeah Vomit-boy, anything you wanna tell us~?" Yang asked as well

"Um... did I do something, wrong guys? cause I know I was supposed to be back earlier for training but I just lost track of time and-"

"they're talking about your little date Jaune," Blake said still smiling

"Date? what Date?" Jaune asked

"you know, the date you had with that girl at the fast food place," Ruby said with stary eyes "why did you say that you were seeing someone?"

"Wait? you mean Fiona?" Jaune asked "wait! how did you guys know I was with Fiona?" Jaune asked

"Well, we were walking around, looking for a new place to eat and I and Ren saw you entering the store with... Fiona right? but we decided to leave you two be" Nora replied

"wait, Fiona? as in Fiona Thyme?" Blake asked

"Yeah, why?" Jaune asked

"You were on a date with Robyn's lieutenant!? HAHAHA" Yang laughed

"first of all Yang, it wasn't a date, and second of all, Fiona and I are just friends," Jaune told her

Nora winked, "sure, whatever you say Jaune-Jaune!"

Jaune looked to Ren, "Ren, come on, help me out here!" Jaune asked

"I must say Jaune that you two looked like a lovely couple!"

"TRAITOR!" Jaune cried "Oscar help me out, dude!"

"Sorry Jaune... I'm not really good with dating advice" Oscar said with a dorky smile

"NO! Not you too!" Jaune cried

But Jaune began to think about what he did with Fiona, was it a date?

Fiona returned to the base. She had actually had a lot of fun today with Jaune, and he was an actually good guy, nice, sweet, awkward, and overall very caring. Fiona had felt happy within Jaune's presence, he had this aura around him that made you wanna follow him. Not to mention he was cute when Fiona wanted to tease him, he would blush, but then again, he also probably blushed when she flapped her ears, which to her were embarrassing, she didn't know why, but when Jaune complimented her, her face felt hot and her ears would flap. She sighed and hope she would see him tomorrow, well, it was his job to see that those kids were safe, and maybe she might just join him. She walked into the main part of The Happy Huntresses base, only to find May, Joanna, and Robyn looking at her, all with smiles.

"Oi, why are ya all lookin' at me like that?" Fiona asked

"Oh, is there something you wanna tell us, Fiona? Robyn asked with a smile

"What are you getting at Robyn?" Fiona asked, her eyes narrowing

"I mean, don't you wanna tell us about your little date with that handsome blonde huntsman~?" May said with a cheeky smile

Fiona blushed hard, "How!? When!? I-I-I!?"

"Ask May, she's the one who saw you" Joanna replied

Fiona looked to her partner, "How'd ya find me!?" Fiona asked

"Well I was out looking for you and then I saw you through that fast food restaurant so I used my semblance and went inside to watch you," May said "Oh, and you two are rather cute together"

Fiona breathed in, calming herself, but her blush was still very visible, "It wasn't even a date! Jaune and I are just friends!" Fiona cried

"Surrreee!" May said "I saw the look in your eyes! you like him!"

"We just met today May, there's no way I can fall for someone that fast!" Fiona told her friend

Easy Fi, were just messing with you" Robyn told her "Besides, are you sure it wasn't a date?"

Fiona was about to reply, but then she stopped herself to think, He asked her out to eat somewhere, ok, they talked about each other, ok there's that, finally, they exchanged scroll numbers and said that they hoped to see each other again.

"by the gods, it was a date!" Fiona cried with a mad blush!

"is the plan ready for tomorrow?" Chuckled a voice

"yes, if all goes according to plan, that little rally will be the breaking point between Mantle and Atlas" Replied a very posh voice

"Ohohoho!" laughed the first voice, "this is gonna be so much fun!"

"Indeed it will be," said the second voice, with a smile

Arthur Watts and Tyrian Callows walked out of the shadows and right into the light, the two separatings, with Tyrian going to commit more murders and Watts left to do what he does best. Things were just looking up...


Sorry if this chapter seemed short, but I still wanted to lay some ground work before I decided to get in to both the romance, action, and drama of the story, but I hoped you enjoyed
