A/N

I suppose I should state that I will be using OC's for this story. For what stories I've seen of Naruto entering this world, he's always with team RWBY. Not gonna lie, I like the idea of doing that, but it's also something that I hate. I have mixed feelings about that and while the idea of using three other OC's is generally kind of frowned upon because they're author created characters, in this case, I kind of want to do it. So without further delay, here is the first chapter for what I hope will be a fic you guys want me to continue.

Chapter 4

It was hard to accept the truth. Jasper knew the truth before anyone else did. It was a sad thing, really, knowing what he knew. How could any of them have been so blind? It was degrading. It was sickening. It was… rather funny when he stopped to think about it.

Jaune was fighting Cardin for what felt like the hundredth time. And like all the other times, Jaune was going to lose. He had only ever won one match and that was against Lark. Lark had some talent, but he tried too hard to be acrobatic and thus was defeated by the simple minded fighting force that was Jaune. After that he continuously lost each match, either by aura depletion or his opponent deciding to forfeit the match because it wasn't worth it in the long run; which, when truly thought about in a more practical sense, wasn't really even a victory for Jaune.

But even with each match he lost against Cardin, Jaune, and those around him, believed that he could do it. He could stand back up and beat Cardin or prove to him that he was a great leader and fighter. But each time, no matter how Jaune attacked, no matter how hard he fought, he always lost. Jasper clung to the belief that just because Jaune lost this match, it didn't mean he'd lost the next one. He was an optimistic, believing that if something were to happen the same way a hundred times, it didn't mean the same thing would happen one hundred and one times. He simply believed that even if something was destined to fall, it may yet rise because it wanted to.

The standing for strongest fighter was easily something everyone was striving for, but only a few had the spot. Pyrrha was at the top of the leaderboards for their grade, followed closely by Sasuke, and then by Weiss. The top three were the only ones that mattered. Yang and Nora were practically rivals after their first match. It was called before both fighters got out of control and ever since, it became a thing of rivalry and hilarity when the two fought. It was like watching two dogs fight over a piece of meat, but in this case it was just to roided out girls with super strength and the inability to be knocked down fighting each other. Same could even said for Ren and Blake, as the two had completely different styles but still somehow always managed to win each match against the other day in and day out. Blake would win one. Then Ren would win one.

Then there were matches where it was designed to test the limits of someone. Sasuke had fought Ruby, Yang and Blake all at the same time. He lost. Pyrrha fought Jasper, Emert and Persia. She lost. Weiss fought against Cardin, Lark and Russel. She won.

Jasper didn't care about his standing enough to want to fight anymore. Once he beat everyone once, he was done with it. It was his thing. Why fight someone that you already beat? Well, his reasoning was that if you fought that person the next day, they wouldn't have improved physically enough to beat him. He believed in his own words and would always stand by them, but it was still the principle of what he believed in.

It made him a hypocrite to be sure, but that was how his cookie crumbled.

And this was also how Jaune's cookie crumbled because no matter how strong he thought he was, no matter how fast he thought he was, he was always going to fail when fighting anyone, even someone as assholish as Cardin.

Sasuke closed his eye and shut his Sharingan off. He saw enough. He'd already seen it enough times to know how each moved played out. He could beat Jaune with his eyes closed. He was predictable and as insulting as it was, Sasuke was constantly reminded of his fights at the academy with Naruto and Kiba. No matter how strong they became, their attacks were always the same. They came charging in, head first right into danger without thinking. It was their tactics. They had no tact for combat. They never thought to look sideways at something. Sure, Naruto proved that he was fully capable of being unique in his fighting style. If one thing didn't work, he tried another thing. If that didn't work, he came at you from a different angle. But his acts were always the same. He couldn't fake anyone out.

Sasuke pulled out his Scroll and looked at the line that was Naruto's heart monitor. It pulsed normally. He closed his eyes and willed away the fear of the other night. Naruto's heart rate spiked. Sasuke grew worried and rushed down to him. Ozpin was informed and met him there. Naruto succumbed to a seizer. It took them three hours to get him under control. They tried sedatives but they had minor affects. Blood work was done on him and it was revealed that his blood actually fought back against the chemicals they put in his body. Anything they put in him was washed away instantly. It made Sasuke wonder why he wasn't on his feet yet or even awake. Ozpin feared that time was running short. If it was, Sasuke wasn't prepared for it.

The lights came and Sasuke put his Scroll away.

"That's enough." Cardin stopped mid swing; though the look on his face made it clear he wanted to crush his head. He could only obey the orders of his teacher, though, and backed off. He wasn't going to openly defy anyone in front of a teacher. Glynda stepped forward and gestured to a display that hovered above both combatants. One had a picture of Jaune with a red flashing line and the other was Cardin with a full green line. "Students," she began, tapping on her Scroll, "Mr. Arc's aura has dropped into the red. In a tournament style duel this would indicate that Jaune is no longer fit for battle and that the official may call the match."

Glynda collapsed her Scroll and thought for a brief moment on Jaune's performance. He had a spirit. She'd give him that much. But he never progressed at all. She could easily understand that everyone would get smarter, faster, stronger, as time went on and that the standings would obviously stay for some time in a certain way. Weiss was originally in fourth place with Jasper in third. When Emert had to fight her, he lost and thus the standing changed. But Jaune couldn't advance from the very bottom. Even Lark was show improvements. Perhaps his transcripts were wrong?

"Mr. Arc," she said, coming from her split second thoughts, "it's been weeks now. Please try to refer to your Scroll during combat. Gauging your aura will help you decide when it is appropriate to attack or when it is better to move to a more defensive strategy." Jaune sighed as he took her words to heart and looked at his Scroll. It was flashing red. He sighed inwardly and could feel the disappointed looks from his friends and team. "We wouldn't want you to be gobbled up by a Beowolf, now would we?"

With a snort of annoyance, Cardin dragged his weapon to his shoulder, muttering, "Speak for yourself," as he ventured off the platform and down to the lockers. He didn't even need to shower his fight had been so lame.

Glynda took a calming breath. That kind of talk was liable to get him in trouble. She knew about his activities and had gone to Ozpin to see if something could be done about it. Ozpin had declined all actions against Cardin under the belief that if no one was willing to come out, then it wasn't worth looking in to. Obviously, Ozpin knew and was waiting until someone was near crippled or someone came to him. Glynda was fearful that Cardin would go too far and cripple someone.

"Remember everyone," she put a happy face, "the Vytal Festival is only a few months away. It won't be long now before students from the other Kingdoms start arriving in Vale. So keep practicing. Those that choose to compete in the tournament will be representing all of Vale."

Sasuke looked between Pyrrha and Jaune and sighed. She was looking at him with worry in her eyes. Jaune looked disappointed and buried himself in his Scroll.

Emert put an arm around Sasuke's neck and laughed. "That was an impressive fight you had against Blake!" he said loudly. Persia glared at him. Weeks of spending time with his team and Sasuke had them all pegged down rather well. Emert was loud, a little crazy, but his heart was always in the right place. Persia was cold, detached, and hated most men. She barely tolerated Emert. And Jasper was a lazy slacker that somehow got good grades. Persia was the only one on their team to go above and beyond the lesson plans by turning in extra homework and spending time with the teachers.

"You never saying anything nice about my fights," Jasper moaned. Emert shot him a look that made him laugh. "What?"

"The last fight you had was against Lark," Persia said sharply. He made a silent gesture as if to say, "So," to her. She glared. "That was two weeks ago! You haven't fought anyone since then!"

"And you're point? Do you want me to start fighting again? I'll kick everyone's ass." He heard a grunt and looked behind him. Nora was smiling. Pyrrha was looking at the ground, suddenly deep in thought. "I beat you in the first week, Nora."

"Your weapon is hardly fair," Yang hissed as she strolled up to him. It was time for lunch. Like most of their time at the academy, lunch was at different times depending on your schedule. There were second, third, and even a few fourth year students that ate with them. It was really a mix. They were lucky that all first year students got to eat with their teams, but word had it that it wouldn't last. There were a lot of second year students that hardly saw their team unless it was for combat training or if their schedule's lined up right.

"And your monster strength isn't?" he fired back, a playful smile on his face. Yang grinned mischievously as he wrapped an arm around his neck and dragged him down. His face was pressed against her bust. He wasn't complaining. "I'm just saying," he fought hard to escape her headlock, "that between everyone in our grade, you have the most insane strength of us all."

"Well what can I say?" She flexed her arms. "I trained hard to get these guns!" Jasper and Emert shared a laugh. Persia rolled her eyes and moved away from them, walking quickly to get in line. Sasuke sighed. "I'm proud of these things."

"I thought you were proud of your hair?" Ruby inquired as they all got in line to get food.

"Well that I am proud about. It's my most defining feature."

"Sure it is." Emert looked down a little. Yang laughed and emphasized her breasts but pushing them up with her arms. Ruby patted her own chest and wanted to cry. "Don't worry, Ruby. You're the not the president of the Itty Bitty Titty Comity." Jasper hauled with laughter. Sasuke chewed on his lip to keep from laughing. "That one goes to Persia."

"She's gonna kill you~!" Yang sang in a joyful voice between her bits of laughter.

"Are you implying that Ruby has bigger breasts than Persia?" Pyrrha asked, snapping from her train of thoughts. Emert and Jasper shared a knowing look and Emert nodded slowly. Arms crossed and a scowl on her face, Pyrrha took a deep breath before she said, "That would imply that you've been peeking on us in the shower."

"Nope," Emert said in a comically high voice. Sasuke kept fighting the desire to laugh. "See, here's the thing," he pointed at Ruby and then to the front of the line where Persia was getting her food, "Ruby wears a corset. We all know this and think she is adorable for doing so. The pristine fountain of innocence. That said," he pointed at her chest and finished with, "she has no lady lumps unless she is using tape to press them down. Let us not forget that she has openly had conversations about them with you, Nora, Yang, and even Blake. She has, on several occasions, asked when they were going to grow in. Persia, I've see her naked."

"So you're an eavesdropper?" Nora accused with an evil glint in her eyes.

"Have you seen his ears?" Jasper asked, grabbing said ears and making them wag back and forth. Evert slapped his hands away. Jasper laughed momentarily before apologizing. "This guy can hear Nora snoring and talking about pancakes in her sleep. And I've actually yelled and only Sasuke and Emert heard it while outside while I was inside. That's saying something!"

"So you can hear anything we say or do?" Jaune asked.

"Pretty much," Emert confirmed. Jaune had a look of pure delight on his face; like a kid getting the present he wanted for his birthday. "Real pain in the ass is my nose. It's super sensitive. I don't know how my mom manages to work in a full kitchen. I go in there and die almost instantly. Dad is the same. We're not allowed anywhere near it. If we want water, we gotta send one of my sisters."

"So you're like Mogar from X-Ray and Vav?" Jaune clarified with a question. Emert nodded, a knowing smile forming on his face. The two read comics. Jaune was reading the newest one in a library. Emert saw it and the two became good friends. They even caught Pyrrha reading it, though she claimed to not have much of an interest in it. "So what do you think they have for lunch today?"

"Cookies!" Ruby cheered.

Yang rolled her eyes. "I'm not really hungry." Weiss nodded. Blake was already at a table with a book. They could see her watching them with one eye on them and the other on the book. Sasuke passed them and Yang said, "Anything good up there?" as he walked by with a bowel of ramen.

"They got soup," he said sharply. Yang and Weiss shrugged, both deciding to not be bothered with food for the time being. Sasuke sat in front of Blake. She gave him a silent stare. He returned it. She blinked. He shrugged. She rolled her eyes. He snorted and started eating. Blake shook her head and returned to her book. That was their typical greeting. Sasuke wasn't a fool. He knew about her ears. How no one else did, he didn't know or care.

Weiss pulled out a nail file and started cleaning up her nails. She chipped one in her match. Yang put her head on the table and waited for the others. It wasn't a few minutes later that they all showed up. They were having a debate on whether or not eating cookies and strawberries all day was healthy. Ruby was clearly losing the argument she got herself into with Pyrrha. As they sat down, Nora became hyper and started telling a story. Sasuke paid little attention and continued to eat his soup. He caught pieces of it.

"There we were in the middle of the night." She made it sound like a story to tell around a campfire in the woods in the middle of the nowhere, in a place where you were probably going to die if it was a horror movie.

"It was day," Ren corrected, sighing in frustration.

"We were surrounded by Ursa."

"They were Beowolfs."

"Dozens of them!" She stood up, pounding her fists on the table. The whole thing shook and Sasuke watched some of the soup up into the air and then back down.

"Two of them!"

"But they were no match! And in the end, Ren and I took them down and made a boat load of lien selling Ursa skin rugs." She sat back down, a big smile plastered on her face.

Ren held up his cup of tea shaking his head. "She's been having this reoccurring dream for over a month now." Ren explained, sighing once more as he sat his cup down.

Sasuke blinked and thought of his own reoccurring dream. It wasn't pretty and it didn't have a happy ending. Everyone died and he was powerless to stop them. He seriously needed to get out more or trust his friends to be stronger than what he thought they were. He wasn't banking on them actually being stronger. Naruto could kick all their asses.

"Jaune," Pyrrha turned towards her teammate/leader and took a deep breath. "Is everything okay?"

Jaune kept playing with his food. He was lost in thought but as soon as he heard his name he snapped from it and responded with a quick, "Oh yeah! Why?"

"It's just that you seem a little… not okay." Ruby tried to think of a better way to put it but came up with nothing. She toyed with her hands as if it would keep her from being able to come off as being timid about it.

"Guys," Jaune started when he noticed they were all looking at him. Blake sat her book down and Weiss stopped filing her nails for this. Sasuke was actually paying attention to this. Persia stopped glaring at Emert to actually look at him with a bit of worry in her eyes. "I'm fine. Seriously!" He put on a smile and gave a thumbs up. "Look!" He faked a smile and whimpered pitifully.

Emert's ears twisted to the sound of laughter. Those that didn't have their backs to the scene glared sharply at the four people doing it. Emert and those that had their backs to it had to turn around and see it. Sasuke turned around and his Sharingan blazed to life. A desire to kill Cardin and his team overtook him, but he calmed himself and took a deep breathe.

"Jaune," Pyrrha started, one eye on the bullying scene and the other on the back of her lead, "Cardin has been picking on you since the first week of school."

"Who?" He faked surprise. "Cardin Winchester?" He laughed and gasped at the same time while looking around. "He just likes to mess around. You know? Practical jokes."

"He's a bully," Ruby clarified for him, unhappy to be forced to watch the scene play out. A bunny Faunus was having her ears pulled.

"Oh please. Name one time he's bulled me?" Jaune put emphasis on the word "bully" with air quotes.

"He knocks your books out of your hands," Ruby pointed out.

"He activated your shield in a doorframe, leaving you stuck for hours." Ren added.

"He shoved you in you rocket propelled locker and sent you for a ride." Emert also added.

Jaune sputtered and laughed. "I… I didn't land far from the school!"

Pyrrha released an exasperated sigh of frustration. She liked Jaune, but damn was he stubborn. "Jaune," she began patiently, "you know if you ever need help you can just ask."

Nora sprang to her feet, smiling evilly as she flexed her muscles. "Oh! We'll break his legs!"

Emert and Jasper nodded in agreement. Emert already dealt with Cardin when he tried to make a grab at his ears to mock him. He punched him so hard that he was knocked out for about eight hours. And when he made a snide comment to Persia he was suddenly very quiet for the rest of the day. It wasn't really a mystery as to why he was quiet, but it was food for thought for those that got on her bad side. Never mind what anyone else would do. Ruby would probably beat him to death with her weapon. Weiss would stab him or freeze him. Yang and Nora would, as Nora just put it, break his legs. Blake… well no one wanted to test those waters.

"Guys," Jaune got up with a smile, "really! It's fine. Besides, it's not like he's only a jerk to me. He's a jerk to everyone." Jaune left his team when a small cry of pain came from behind him. He didn't bother turning to face it. He wanted to escape before Cardin turned his sights on him.

All eyes were turned to the sound. Jasper got up sharply but paused when he noticed Sasuke standing behind Cardin. "This is gonna be bad," Emert said fearfully.

That got their attention.

Sasuke's hand snapped out so fast that Cardin barely had time to register the blow and the subtle grab that both crushed his wrist and released Velvet from his hands. Velvet stumbled back and was caught before she could trip. Sasuke held her hand, her lunch tray flying up in the air. Cardin cried as Sasuke tightened his grip on his arm. Bones could be heard cracking. Cardin hit his knees with tears in his eyes. The whole cafeteria went silent. Sasuke took a calming breath and looked at the other three with his Sharingan activated. They tensed. "Stay put," he ordered with a low voice. He hauled Cardin to his feet and threw him into the table. He grabbed a kunai and twirled it around in his hand. "Do you know how many pressure points are in the human body?" Sasuke asked his question very calmly. He sounded like he was talking about the weather. He released his hold on Cardin.

Sasuke waited for a reply.

"Sasuke," Velvet began.

Sasuke glanced her way and his hand sprang to her face. She shuddered as he stroked the side of her cheek. There was pain and anger in his eyes. He turned back to Cardin, awaiting his answer.

"How should I know?" Cardin finally hissed out. He held his arm and rolled over. Sasuke grabbed his shoulder and put his back on the table. Sasuke kept twirling his weapon. The air grew cold. "You're not going to stab me. You're gutless."

Sasuke stopped spinning his weapon around and held it in a reverse grip. He examined the blade before setting it on the table. He smiled and nodded. "You're right. I'm not going to stab you." Victory flashed in Cardin's eyes. Sasuke grabbed his arm and pulled it up. He placed his thumb in the center of his palm and applied pressure. Cardin's head hit the table as he threw it back and screamed. The table cracked and voice echoed in the large room. "That," Sasuke said patiently, "is a pressure point. There are three hundred seventy two pressure points in the human body. Each one can be affected by anything from a simple touch to a minute amount of pressure. This," he applied just a tiny bit more pressure to get his point across, "is a minute amount of pressure."

Doze jumped over the table, his sword in hand. Sasuke snatched up his kunai and blocked the strike. He kept the pressure on Cardin as Dove began swinging furious to get his leader loose. Sasuke flipped his weapon over into a reverse grip and took the back end of the weapon to Dove's palm. The force behind it was enough to send his sword skipping along the ground. Sasuke twirled the weapon forward and thrust it forward. His aim was spot on. Doze whimpered and froze. Sasuke, if he had thrust it any further, would have removed Doze's eye. The point was close enough that Doze was almost certain just breathing would get it punctured.

Pulling his weapon back, Sasuke glared at him before applying more pressure to Cardin's palm. He screamed and suddenly Sasuke turned and started walking. He dragged the man behind himself and when he was close to a wall, threw him head first into it. No one wanted to breathe as Sasuke picked him up by his head and drove his face into the wall again and again until the man was whimpering for release. Sasuke hauled him back to his feet and dragged him before Velvet. He grabbed the other hand applied pressure in the center of his palm. He screamed so loud that Velvet heard ringing in her ears.

"Apologize." Sasuke ordered. Cardin screamed for release. Sasuke grabbed a fist full of his hair and pulled his head back into his rising knee. Cardin went silent for a moment before the pain kicked in again from the pressure point. "Apologize." Cardin whimpered and glared at Velvet. She looked frightened and looked around as if expecting someone else to come out of the shadows and attack Sasuke. Cardin kept whimpering. Sasuke grabbed his hair again and smashed his knee into the back of his head. "If you don't apologize right now, I will throw you in front of her team. I imagine they'd do worse. So do it now or I throw you at them."

Cardin's response was a half howl of pain and something nowhere near close to an apology. Velvet looked fearful. Sasuke closed his one eye and dragged him to his feet. Velvet chased after him. Half of the lunchroom did as well. Sasuke dragged the man behind him until he was standing front of Fox. The man was just leaving his sparring classes and looked ready to a shower. "Fox," Sasuke threw Cardin at his feet. "Has Velvet said anything about a bully to you?" Scarlet hid behind Sasuke. Fox sighed and shook his head. Turning his head just enough to look at her, Sasuke poked her forehead. "Come to us about these things." He stepped on Cardin's outstretched leg. He contemplated breaking it. Fox cracked his knuckles. "You got him from here?" Fox gave a nod and hauled Cardin to his feet. He dragged him back into the sparring room. Yatsuhashi and Coco were exiting when they saw him. They exchanged words and the two looked down at the whimpering first year. They vanished back into the classroom.

Those that followed looked fearfully towards the former Uchiha. Sasuke had a scowl on his face. He touched Velvet's ears and shook his head. "If he ever touches you again," he began. She grabbed his hand and held it tightly. "Velvet, let me know if he does anything like this again. I don't like seeing you cry." She nodded silently. The door open and Cardin came running out covered in bruises. Yatsuhashi jogged over to Velvet. Coco walked over Cardin, a smug look on her face. Fox faked a punch and smiled as the first year flinched and continued to whimper. "Sorry I roughed him up before I got him to you."

"That's fine," Coco said with a laugh. She turned her gaze on Velvet, removing her glasses as she did. "If he ever does something like this again to you, tell us. We're your teammates. I know we don't have lunch together, but seriously, let us know. I'm not having one of my most powerful fighters be bullied by some idiot with an ego." Velvet laughed nervously at being put on the spot. Coco slapped Sasuke's shoulder. "Thanks for looking after her. She's such a sweet person. She doesn't mean anyone harm. He doesn't deserve her sympathy."

Sasuke gave a nod of agreement before he marched back to his team with his hands in his pockets. "Don't be a stranger!" Yatsuhashi called out to him. Sasuke waved and slunk past his friends.

Emert laughed and scratched at his nose. "And that," he said softly so only Blake and Persia could hear him, "is why he's awesome." Blake rolled her eyes. She was impressed, but one good action against a bully didn't make him a great person.

Ozpin put his hands on his temples as he fought the urge to sigh while going over the reports he was just given. Between the White Fang, an enemy that Qrow was worried about, Sasuke and Naruto's arrival, managing a school and a business that was Huntsman and Huntress bounty board, he was growing worried with new pieces of information that just came in. Grimm were becoming bolder and attacking at the wall. While this was normal, the level of the attacks was growing with each passing day. Ozpin feared for mass panic from the citizens if there was ever a breach in the wall.

The rise of the Grimm activity was probably related to the movements of the White Fang. With each random act of violence they did, a little more the Grimm would appear. They had sent hundreds of Huntsmen to the walls to defend in when a wave came out of nowhere and began hammering away at their defenses. Ozpin didn't doubt that their walls would hold them for the stronger, older, and even bigger Grimm were to make a play at the wall. If that happened there would be mass panic in the streets. It was already astounding the White Fang couldn't utilize the Grimm for their own ends.

Ozpin's Scroll buzzed. Gently he opened it up and skimmed over a report that was coming in. He narrowed his eyes and waited for the call. A few seconds later the call came in. "Hello."

"What's wrong with him?"

"Calm down, Sasuke. I'm sure he's fine."

"He's having another seizer!"

"Mr. Sasuke if you would please sit down!"

That was Oobleck.

"Sasuke, I'll be heading down there to see about him personally. You should stay in class and wait for it to be over before coming down there. Everything will be fine." There was a long pause on the other end of the line. "I'll call you if something comes up. You have my word."

"Fine…"

Ozpin took a deep breath as the line went dead. He grabbed his cane and walked out. He prepped a bullhead for flight. His Scroll went off again and he took a moment to read the message that was scrolling across it. Another Grimm attack was coming in. They were about to reach the wall. He pulled the notice down and looked at the first message about Naruto going into a seizer before he scrolled it down and read the Grimm invasion message. He clicked his tongue against his teeth before stowing the item away. He could think more on that later.
