What if Animus saw the kind of devastation that the Grimm were causing to the world of Remnant and decided to intervene? And what better way to do so than by giving his power to five young warriors with attitudes?

Pairing: Jaune x Harem
Guardians of Remnant! - United we Roar!
Initiation day at Remnant was just a day away, and many of the young hopefuls on the Bullhead were ready to handle anything that life threw at them! Well, almost everyone…
"Whoever invented the concept of flying machines should be drug out into the street and turned inside out!" an airsick boy with messy blonde hair mentally raged.
This young man is Jaune Arc, the only con of the Arc family. And the only comfort he got out of nearly constantly having to vomit was the soft growling and glowing black light coming from his pocket. Jaune sighed as he reached into his pocket and took out his most prized possession.
It was a small sphere made out of black crystal. And inside this crystal was a small stone figurine of a lion. An animal that has long since been put on Remnant's endangered species list. With the Grimm constantly seeking new breeding and hunting grounds, it's become difficult for the wildlife around Remnant to survive and thrive.
"Well, at least I still have you, lion. You're always there for me." Jaune quietly said to the crystal.
A soft purr was heard from the crystal as Jaune placed it back in his pocket. His motion sickness always seems to go away whenever he talks to his special crystal. But little did he know was that there are others on this ship who are like him.
Jaune suddenly felt someone rubbing his back in a soothing manner that made what remained of his motion sickness go away. And somehow, Jaune could tell that the hand belonged to a girl.
"Ugh, I don't know who you are, but thanks for that."
Jaune turned around and saw that the person rubbing his back was indeed a girl. She had icy blue eyes with a diagonal scar going across her left eye, long white hair that was pulled into an offset ponytail, and skin that looked as fair as the purest snowfall. (Gosh, I'm a poet and I didn't know it.) She also had this necklace around her neck, but the charm was tucked into a black shirt she was wearing with her dress.
"You're welcome. I personally prefer not to fly in a cramped bullhead like this, but I suppose I just have to make do with what I've got." said the girl. "My name is Weiss Schnee, by the way."
"Nice to meet you, Weiss. I'm Jaune Arc. Short, sweet, rolls off the tongue. Ladies love it. ...I think. I dunno. Maybe? Uh, at least that's what my mom said."
"Well, she might wanna give you some better pickup lines. Although I swear I've heard something similar in a book before." Weiss stated.
"Oh, trust me, I only use those lines for laughs. I don't plan on trying to use them to get a girlfriend." Jaune assured.
Weiss nodded in understanding. Although she couldn't stop the sound of a Condor screeching from being heard by the two of them. Jaune gasped when he heard it, as he's only ever seen Condors in books and has always wanted to see one in real life.
"Did my ears deceive me, or was that a Condor just now?" Jaune asked excitedly.
"Wait, you can hear it too?" Weiss asked.
"Huh? What do you…?"
Weiss just smiled as she pulled out the charm of her necklace and revealed it to Jaune. His eyes widened as he discovered that it was another spherical crystal that was about the same size as his own. But this one was light blue and has a small stone carving of a Condor in it. He quickly took out his own and to his surprise the lion roared as its crystal began glowing while the same thing happened to Weiss' Condor crystal.
That's when three more hands, all female, joined the circle as well. And each one held a different animal crystal. One belonged to a redhead girl with green eyes who was wearing bronze and gold armor that made her look kind of like a spartan. Her animal crystal was purple and held a stone carving of a Saw Shark in it.
Next was a buxom blond girl with a pair of lilac eyes and an ahoge on her head. She wore a pretty revealing outfit that was a pretty small shirt with a leather jacket over it, and a pair of really short shorts. She also wore combat boots and golden bracelets. Her animal crystal was a golden yellow with a small carving of a Leopard in it.
The final girl was a brown haired girl with a pair of brown rabbit ears on her head showing that she's a Faunus: an individual with parts of an animal. She had brown hair, her ears have brown fur and even her eyes are brown. She's carrying a camera and seems to be a bit timid. Quite understandable, considering how much racial discrimination Faunus have had to put up with over the centuries. Her animal crystal is brown with a stone carving of a Buffalo inside of it.
"Would ya look at that, the king of the jungle shows himself at last." said the blonde girl with a teasing grin. "The name's Yang Xiao Long, and you'd better not forget it! You're gonna be quizzed!"
"I'm Pyrrha Nikos, but you probably already know that." said the redhead with a slight downcast look.
"Who?" Jaune asked.
"Seriously? How can you not know Pyrrha Nikos, the Champion of Mistral?" Weiss asked, surprised by this fact.
"Well, I don't really watch TV all that often. I hardly get any time as it is since I have seven sisters who love to hog the TV." Jaune said sheepishly.
While Weiss was surprised to hear that Jaune has seven sisters, she decided not to focus on that and just try to get his memory going.
"Well maybe you'll recognize her for this. She's the very same girl who's on every box of Pumpkin Pete's Marshmallow Flakes." stated Weiss.
Now that got Jaune's memory going.
"Oh yeah! I remember now! You know, I don't understand why such a beautiful and talented girl like yourself would waste her time advertising a cereal that doesn't even taste good." Jaune said.
Pyrrha just smiled, knowing that it was true. But she did blush a little bit at Jaune's complements.
"I admit it wasn't my proudest moment." Pyrrha said.
"And what's your name?" Jaune asked the bunny girl.
"I… I'm Velvet. Velvet Scarlatina."
She was surprised when Yang put her arm around the girl's shoulders in a friendly gesture, making the girl tense up.
"Hey, no need to be shy around us. We're not gonna rip your ears off, if that's what you're thinking." Yang said.
Velvet just looked down and shuffled her feet nervously. This made Yang recoil in shock as she suddenly realized something very important.
"Oh my god, someone actually TRIED to rip your ears off?!" Yang asked in shock.
"Y… Yes… they did… a lot, actually…" stuttered Velvet.
"Well you don't have to worry about that while we're around! We're not like those other racists out there." Weiss declared.
Velvet gave a small smile at this declaration. It would take time to fully trust these strangers, but she did feel as though they at least won't go back on their word. So she just nodded and sat down with the others.
"So how'd you girls get your crystals?" Jaune asked.
Weiss removed her Condor crystal from her necklace and smiled as the fond memory of how she got it came to mind.
"When I was a little girl, I loved the flying feathered creatures of the world. None more so than the majestic Condor. One day, my mother took me to a nature shoot that she was doing for a magazine publication. We were climbing through the trees when I stumbled upon an abandoned Condor nest. Being the curious little girl that I was, I decided to see what I could find. I climbed into the nest and to my surprise there was the crystal that I treasure so! I brought it back to my mother and she made it into a necklace for me. I've worn it around my neck ever since." Weiss explained.
Jaune honestly couldn't say anything. He was given the black Lion crystal by his grandpa when he was a little boy. He'd always taken good care of it and never let anyone so much as touch it.
"Weird. I found my crystal in the same way, only mine was given to me by a Leopard cub." Yang said.
"I found mine in the water near a Saw Shark meeting ground." Pyrrha added.
"Mine was found in a prairie near a stampeding herd of Buffalo." Velvet said.
"It's kinda strange how there's five of these crystals. Do you think they mean something?" Weiss inquired.
Oh how right you are, Weiss. But I'm afraid that's a story for another time.
