Hey guys, I'm back with another chapter. I realize this isn't the best story and I accept that. Reading the comments y'all leave really helps give me ideas for chapters and is actually a boost to my confidence haha. Anyways y'all didn't come to listen to me talk, lets get the chapter started ladies and gentleman.
Jaune stood staring at the door to his dorm room and contemplating whether or not it was too late to run and hide. He looked back at his sisters and they both gave him reassuring smiles, Julius just smiled and nodded his head, Ruby his best friend was shaking a bit but gave him a determined nod, Coco smiled with her arms crossed giving off an air of confidence.
Yang hugged the blond Knight to the surprise of everyone else, squeezing him softly and whispered so only he could hear. "Don't worry Jaune, they are your family and sure they may be pissed but they'll get over it. If they don't then you've still got me, Rubes, Blake, Weiss and the rest of your team."
Jaune smiled and wrapped his arms around his fellow blonds waist pulling her deeper into the embrace. Yang smiled and buried her face into his chest noticing for the first time just how much the Knight had grown. The clearing of a thought snapped them out of their own thoughts and reminded them that they weren't alone.
Both blonds blushed and jumped away from each other earning chuckles from the group and a jealous pout from a certain brunette. Jaune looked at his smiling daughter that had her arms outstretched to him asking to be held, which he quickly obliged taking her from Coco much to the leaders disappointment. The little red head gave his cheek a pat before snuggling further into his chest relishing the warmth he gave off. Jaune smiled and started releasing a small amount of his aura earning a quiet purr from her.
Jaune smiled and kissed Akemi softly on her forehead before handing her to Julius and squaring his shoulders looking towards the door with a determined stare. Yang saw this and smiled at how far he'd come from the first time they met months ago. Where was vomit boy who ran away from confrontation, she couldn't help but wonder if maybe this was always inside Jaune and he just needed the right force to release it. Bleu smiled softly under her face mask seeing the confidence her little brother used to exclude before the incident that changed him. Alex looked at her twin like Ruby did a weapon that she thought was amazing. She was finally seeing her brother again after all these years and couldn't hold in her excitement.
Jaune opened the door and was greeted by the sight of the rest of his family turning to him in unison. Jaune was about to speak when he was tackled by four blurs that took the shape of his little sisters. The older Arcs laughed at the scene while Jaune simply smiled and hugged the four girls at once while they nuzzled him and tried to fuse to their elder brother. After a minute of hugging Jaune gently pushed them off him so he could stand. "Girls I missed you all but I have some friends to introduce to everyone." The four gave pouts before they returned to their parents side allowing the group to enter the room.
Jaune suddenly found himself in a strong embrace being smothered by his mothers chest. "Oh my baby boy! I missed you so much, have you been eating well? Making friends? Why don't you call home?!" Jaune gently pushed his mother away so he could regain his breathe before he hugged her tightly resting his head on his mother's shoulder and inhaling the scent of her perfume.
Jaune teared up at the familiar scent that he hadn't realized he'd been missing so much. "I've been eating well, I've made lots of great friends, and I'm sorry I haven't called. I was afraid you were still mad at me for leaving." Jaune's mother simply hugged him tighter. "We were upset Jaune, but you're still our family, we always worry about you cub."
They heard a deep rumble and both turned to the individual that had all the non Arcs attention. Standing at an impressive height of six and a half feet wearing a long sleeved white shirt with the Arc symbol displayed over his heart proudly with black pants and combat boots stood Vlad Arc. He looked like an older more muscular copy of Jaune except for a pair of lion ears at the top of his head. He looked his son over with a frown as Jaune stepped away from his mother and tilted his head up slightly to look his father in the eyes.
Vlad locked eyes with his son looking him over and noticing the tears and stains in his clothes. "I see Alex greeted you in her usual manner." Jaune nodded and stiffened under his father's gaze which didn't go unnoticed by the rest of the rooms occupants. Jaune saw his father move and shut his eyes ready for the pain of his father's fist but instead felt himself be pulled into a warm embrace. "It's good to see you are alright cub, you terrified us when you ran away. Don't ever do something like that again son." Jaune nodded as he hugged his father back but stiffened when he felt his father squeeze him tighter to the point that he couldn't move. "I'm happy to see you're doing well, but I can't let this go unpunished, you made your mother and sisters cry Jaune"
"Dear you're going to break him if you squeeze any harder" Jaune's mother said as she placed a hand on Vlad's arm and gripped it softly. Vlad let out a huff and dropped Jaune who began wheezing trying to fill his lungs with as much oxygen as possible. "We'll be having a spar tomorrow Jaune" Jaune gulped and gave a nod before he stood up and faced his friends who were watching with raised eyebrows. He coughed into his fist and motioned to the rest of his family.
"Let me introduce everyone. This is my mother Joan Arc" The woman smiled and gave a small wave. She stood at an impressive 5' 11 inches with sky blue eyes and shoulder length violet hair that framed her face that had very little make up on. She was wearing a white sleeveless sundress that let the group see a tattoo of two crossed arrows on her arm. She looked remarkably young and fit for a woman that had eight children. "It's a pleasure to meet you all." She said with a motherly smile.
"This is my Father Vlad Arc he's a bit scary at times but don't worry my mom has him on a short leash." Jayne was floored by a hard slap to the back of his head, courtesy of his father who crossed his arms and smiled at them with a nod. "It's a pleasure to meet you, as my idiot son said I am Vlad Arc." Jaune picked himself up off the ground and rubbed his head, grumbling under his breathe and gestured to a woman that had been standing towards the back of the room.
"This is my eldest sister Rouge she's really nice, but doesn't do well talking with new people so sorry if she comes off a bit quiet at times." Rouge stood taller than their mother at 6ft tall and looked almost exactly like Joan except for her hair reached her waist, and the pair of lion ears at the top of her head. She wore a red t-shirt with a black jacket over it with a matching pair of tight black jeans that led into a pair of boots. She gave the Beacon girls a once over and crossed her arms keeping her eyes on the sleeping Akemi with a raised eyebrow.
Jaune motioned to the blue haired woman that stood next to Julius, with her arms crossed. "That's bleu as you already know she's the second eldest of us and got her hair color from our grandmother. She's usually really quiet and is a bit on the antisocial side but don't worry she just acts tough she's actually a big softy especially to her partner Ja-."
Jaune was cut off by the sound of a gun cocking. He turned to bleu to see her with an eye smile and one of her weapons in her hands. Jaune smiled nervously and continued on to his sister Alex while Bleu holstered her weapon again.
"This is my twin sister Alexandria as you saw outside she's a total tomboy and is the least ladylike woman in our family. In fact everyone she confessed to back in Arcadia rejected her because she was too-." Alex cut him off by planting her fist in his gut and launching him across the room with a follow up kick. "Shut up!" Alex shouted with a blush on her cheeks.
Jaune got back up and tackled Alex to the ground before getting her in a headlock, which made her start to thrash around in an effort to get loose. Both of them were rolling around on the ground to the amusement of everyone until a shadow passed over them and they froze when they looked up and locked eyes with their mother and Rouge. Both women cracked their knuckles which made both of them jump up and hug each other with nervous smiles heeding the wordless threat.
Jaune cleared his throat and motioned to a pair of Violet haired teenagers that were peeking out from behind Rouge. They both walked up to him when he motioned for them to come closer and one of them took shelter behind the other peeking out from behind her nervously. Jaune motioned to the girl hiding behind her sister with a smile.
"This shy girl is our little sister Velvet she's really shy but is honestly a very sweet and kind hearted girl. Careful if you bring up medicine around her though because she'll talk like no tomorrow if you do." He said with a chuckle as he patted the top of her head right between the lion ears she displayed proudly on her head. This earned a purr and a smile as she leaned further into her brother. When she realized what had happened she blushed and quickly hid behind her sister again.
Velvet stood at 4ft 10inches tall with a pair of jeans and a pull over hoodie that was white with blue trim similar to the way Jaune dressed. Her violet hair covered her left eye revealing only her right cobalt iris. The girl she hid behind however glared at the three girls with a fire that dared them to laugh at her twin and her shy nature. She stood an inch taller than her sister and had a Lions tail that wrapped around Velvet protectively. She wore a blue hoodie with white trim and had her violet hair cut short similar in style to Jaune. Jaune placed a hand on her head and smiled when she visibly relaxed and leaned into his touch. "This is our other sister and as you can see Velvet's twin Sapphire. She put up a tough front but is honestly a really sweet girl when you get to know her. She's very protective of Velvet and our baby sisters." Sapphire continued to glare at the Beacon girls as Jaune picked up the pair of red heads that stood near their mother.
One of them hid her face by burying it into Jaune's neck. The other waved enthusiastically and all but shouted her introduction. Her red hair was tied in a ponytail and was wearing a white sundress. "Hi! My name is Mia and I'm seven years old, this is my twin sister Leonie she's really shy but is really fun to play with I promise! It's nice to meet you, Leonie thinks so too she's just really shy. Don't make fun of her for it though because then Sapphire and I will have to kick your butts!" She shouted with a wide smile as the older Arcs let out chuckles at the familiar threat.
The beacon girls had to hold themselves back from rushing over and hugging the two seven year olds with all their strength. Jaune set the girls down and Leonie quickly ran over and hid behind her older sister Sapphire with Velvet, while Mia stood confidently next to said violet haired 13 year old. Sapphire kept her glare but it came off more cute to Yang and Coco than threatening, while Ruby hid behind Yang being in the same boat as Leonie of being shy.
Ok I'm gonna go ahead and leave it here guys sorry it took so long but work has been picking up like crazy lately. Please leave a review on what I can improve and your thoughts on the Arc Family.
