Don't run away

Jaune and his team followed team RWBY in hopes of any shenanigans. They... were not let down.
Weiss was laying on the ground next to a short, orange haired girl. Is that... Atlas uniform?
"No! He got away! " Weiss exclaimed
"Uhhhh Weiss... " Jaune pointed out toward the girl who was laying next to Weiss
"Salutations! " the girl said as Weiss got up
"Uhm, hello..." Ruby said awkwardly
"Are you ok? " Yang asked with a slightly worried look on her face.
"I am wonderful! Thank you for asking" the girl answered, this got Yang questioning the girl's mental health.
Yang asked again "Do you... want to get up? "
"Yes" the girl answered and she flipped onto a standing position. Eryone in Team JNPR and RWBY excluding Jaune, who found it funny, took a step back. Pffft you guys should see your faces Jaune looked at the girls' faces that had 'shocked' written all over them.
"My name's Penny! Its a pleasure to meet you"
"Hi Penny I'm Ruby" Ruby introduced herself. As did Weiss, then Blake
Jaune thought Are they doing this on purpose???
"Are you sure you didn't hit your head? " Yang asked as Blake elbowed her arm
"I'm Yang"
JNPR had to introduce themselves too so...
"Nora Valkyrie, nice to meetcha. This is Renny" Nora said smiling and full of energy as Ren sighed over the nickname
"I'm Pyrrha Nikos" Pyrrha said
"Miss Nikos? Pleasure to meet you! " Penny said with a smiling face
"And I'm Jaune Arc. Short, sweet, rolls off the toungue, ladies love it. " Jaune said jokingly
This was enough to garner a sigh from Weiss and Blake, a snicker from Yang, Ruby and Nora and looks of sympathy from Ren. Pyrrha didn't seem phased Thank God
Though Pyrrha actually did like the introduction ans wanted to ask do they?
"It's a pleasure to meet you! " Penny said once again
"You already said that... " Weiss added
"So I did! " Penny said
They started walking away slowly "Bye friend" Ruby exclaimed
ooooh why do I somehow feel she's gonna regret that Jaune thought as they were walking away. As his words stated, Ruby somehow did, but not really.
Penny somehow got in front of them "What did you just call me? "
"Oh-I... Didn't think you'd hear..." Yang said
"Not you... You" Penny said as she approached Ruby "Am I really your friend?"
Watching the sight of Ruby failing at social cues was funny for Jaune, and seeing her entire team just go 'Ruby no' was even more hilarious I can totally tease her with this later
"Sure! why not" Ruby said as the rest of RWBY fell onto the ground.
"Pffft" Jaune snickered, seeing such a strong team like RWBY acting their age feels somewhat... refreshing.
"Yay! We can paint our nails, go shopping and talk about cute boys! " Penny said as she held Ruby's hands and looked at Ren.
"Nononono he's mine" Nora shouted, "I mean who else would cook her pancakes if Ren left? "
Still holding on to Ruby she then looked at Jaune. "Dang, I'm the second choice? Oh life is so cruel"
JNPR and RWBY laughed at this but Weiss had to break the happy atmosphere "Let's go! We have to go get that faunus rapscallion"
"Do you really have to call him a rapscallion? " Jaune asked, he knew the guy. Sun Wukong was rowdy but he was cool.
"Well, the police were chasing him! He's probably a degenerate... Like the faunus in the white fang! " Weiss said. This grinded Jaune's gears, however he knew of the White Fang and knew that Weiss probably suffered losses from them. Jaune didn't want to stroke the flames.
"Stop calling them degenerates! They're just misguided" Blake said
"They kill people and steal dust! " Weiss answered
"Then, very misguided" Blake hissed
This is gonna be a shouting match huh?
Jaune thought as the two bickered back and forth.
-oOoOoOo-
Oh God they haven't stopped This was too much. Disagreements happened in teams, God knows how many times Nora wanted to do something and the team had to argue with her.
But this was too much, this would break up their team. Jaune heard a scream and a loud shut of the door. If they can't deal with this, then I don't think they can last for the next years.
Jaune thought as he started walking toward the door "Guys, I... I'm gonna go check something out, I'll be back in a sec"
"Ok Jaune, keep safe" Pyrrha said as Jaune then left rushing, this wasn't his problem but he at least wanted to help.
Jaune then ran toward the entrance of Beacon, where the statue was. I hope I'm not too late Jaune thought as he saw Blake. She was crying looking at the statue of his grandfather and his wife, a faunus.
Blake then removed her bow to reveal two fluffy black cat ears. Jaune wasn't surprised, it was kinda obvious.
He then saw Sun walking up to Blake, he said something and Blake looked at him with hopeful eyes and she went with him.
I hope they aren't up to anything not good Jaune thought as he went back to his room. The night might be stressful for Rwby, so he went ahead to check on them...
To see an angry Weiss and a silent Ruby and Yang. "What the hell happened Ruby?"
Jaune wasn't mad, just... He hated seeing friends fight.
"Oh it was just a misunder-"
"She was in the White Fang! " Weiss cut off Ruby with an angry shout.
"Was, Weiss. She's out of it now" Yang said with grinding teeth, she didn't like that Weiss was bad mouthing her partner
"Yes! But that doesn't change the fact that she was in a group of terrorists! " Weiss said as Yang stood up and activated Ember Celica
"Heyheyheyhey, no fighting! " Ruby shouted along with Jaune. Ruby holding onto Yang and Jaune holding onto Weiss.
Pyrrha, Nora and Ren came over to see what it was all about.
"Jaune, what's going on here? " Pyrrha asked
"They were about to kill each other" Jaune answered her as he was still holding onto Weiss.
Weiss shouted "Arc! Let go! "
"Not if you guys don't apologize to each other" Jaune said as she lowered her weapons.
Jaune asked his team to let them talk, and that he'll contact them if things get bad.
"So... Blake is ex-White Fang? " Jaune asked
And RWY all nodded
"You guys should look for her tomorrow and reconcile" Jaune sighed and told the team
Weiss was about to open her mouth and Jaune looked at her sternly "You, think about what just happened"
This got Weiss to, for the first time ever, back off. Jaune then went out of the room and headed over to his team's.
"Jaune, how did it go? " Pyrrha asked
"We're going out tomorrow, we have to look for Blake" Jaune answered
Nora was curious "Why do we have to fearless leader? "
"Well, we can't have our friend dragging herself into danger right? " Jaune told his team and they were fine with it.
They prepared for tomorrow, they needed energy to find Blake.
Author note: Sorry for the late upload, school is a killer. This chapter is also kinda short cuz I kinda wanted to use it as a build-up for next chapter which should be the Docks fight. Have a good day!
