Extra: Fun Under the Remnant Sun!


It was the day before the Vytal Festival and everyone was excited for the festivities to begin. This year, Vale was going to host the tournament. Preparations were already done and all that's left was for the day to finally arrive. The students both native and exchange have worked hard and trained their butts off to prepare for the tournament. All of them believed they were going to take that No. 1 spot. However, like all tournaments, it's not going to be easy. But that's for tomorrow. Today was supposedly the last day of last minute training and for a particular group of teams, it was going to be a day of relaxation.

"Ughhhhhhhhh… sooooooo hooooooooot…"

Well it was supposed to be.

It turns out today was the hottest day of the year and teams JOKR, RWBY, JNPR, MYYR, Koa, and Miko were in the Rider Base trying to cool off. Unfortunately, the AC broke and Aaron's been working for the past hour or so trying to fix it.

"Saying that only makes it worse, you know." Orpheus pointed out with a bag of half-melted ice cubes pressed against his face.

"But it iiiiiiiiiiiiis…" Koa whined, fanning herself with a hand.

"Ironic that reptiles aren't supposed to sweat." Orion stated.

"Shaddap…!"

"Make me…"

"Quiet! I'm trying to fix this stupid air conditioner!" Aaron shouted from the other side.

"Weiss… can't you and Yukina use your Semblance to spray Ice Dust all over us?" Ruby complained.

"Dolt, it's a waste of Dust and it's more likely to give you a freezer burn." Weiss said, using a paper fan.

"But Aunt Weiss~~! It's better than suffering in this heat!" Melody complained, panting with her tongue out like an actual wolf.

"Yeah Weiss! Come on~~!"

"I said no,"

"Yuki, please~?" Melody begged.

"Sorry, I don't want to waste my Dust either." Yukina said apologetically. The two groaned in tandem, whilst Yang was laying on her bed trying to brush down the tangled mess that is her mane.

"Ow! Stupid brush…"

"You're not the only one." Yin groaned, trying to do the same. "Yeowch!"

"Guess without any moisture, your hair dried out." Blake pointed out.

"But I'm using that shampoo Aaron got from Earth." Yang said. "Best shampoo and conditioner my butt…" She huffed.

"It is!" Aaron called out.

"Well it's not helping!"

"At least those two are somehow able to endure the heat." Nora pointed to Kurogasa and Ren who had their eyes closed and in a meditative pose, sitting Indian style.

"We're tricking our bodies with our minds into thinking it's cold." Kurogasa said.

Ruby sneakily appeared behind Kurogasa and whispered repeatedly, "Sunshine. Sunshine. Sunshine. Sunshine. Weiss in a bikini. Weiss in a bikini."

Kurogasa's eyes, despite being closed, were twitching as he tried to keep his concentration.

"Uh, girls?" Jaune got out.

Koa quickly joined in. "Naked ladies. Naked ladies. Naked ladies. Naked ladies." She whispered. The young samurai gritted his teeth, trying to keep his anger in check.

"Ruby, Koa, I don't think you should do that." Pyrrha cringed nervously.

"Yukina in a wedding dress. Yukina in a wedding dress." Both girls whispered. "Yukina with a baby. Yukina with a baby."

*POP!*

"II KAGEN NI SHIROOOOOOOOOOOO!" Kurogasa yelled, comically knocking Ruby and Koa away, causing the two to fly up a bit before they landed on their backs.

"Ah, there it is." Orpheus remarked.

"Totally worth it." Koa wheezed with a thumbs-up.

Nora looked at Ren who was still meditating and snickered as she wanted to try to break his concentration.

"Aunt Nora, don't even think about it." Rei deadpanned.

"Won't know until I-" Before Nora knew it, Ren suddenly bopped her on the nose with one finger, making her pause.

"Nora… sit." Ren told his childhood friend. The hammer girl wanted to say something, but with another mild glare from her friend, she pouted and sat back down, with arms crossed.

"Papa, is the AC fixed yet? We're dying out here," Miko whined.

"Just about-"

*ZZZZRRRRT*

"Fuuuuuuuu-grrrrrrrrrk…" Aaron groaned in pain from having his body being electrocuted. He coughed out a puff of black smoke. "Ow…"

"You okay babe?" Yang asked.

"Peachy…" Aaron wheezed before shaking himself off. "That's it! Teams, we're going out to the beach for our last day before the Vytal Festival!"

"The beach!?" The girls all looked at Aaron with sparkly eyes.

"The beach!" Aaron nodded. "So get pack-"

*ZIP!*

All the guys and Rei blinked when the girls immediately zipped back to their dorms to get ready for the beach. At least it'll be fun for their last day.


Later that day…

"WOOHOO! BEACH TIME!" Yin cheered as he was in his tiger-striped swimming trunks before darting towards the water.

"Yin, you're supposed to stretch first!" Kurogasa called out, being in his black swimming trunks with white dragons depicted dancing among some clouds. But he merely sighed when Yin already dove in head first. "Why do I even bother?"

"Ah, leave him be. He's got his mom's energy after all." Aaron remarked, wearing red swimming trunks with a black wolf on the legs.

"Yeah, besides, you're not in Japan. That's not a thing here in Remnant." Orion added, as he wore yellow swimming trunks with a blue bear paw.

"Yeah, so let's try not to worry about that stress." Orpheus says, sporting purple trunks that have a grey falcon on them.

"I guess…"

"Hmm… I wonder what's keeping the girls?" Aaron pondered.

"You know women. They tend to take a while when it comes to clothing." Orpheus pointed out. "I should know. My cousin, despite her humbleness, can't decide what outfit to wear when she's going out."

"Is she really that indecisive?"

"Like I said, women with clothing." Orpheus remarked.

"Well knowing them…" Jaune said, wearing a white swimming trunks with his symbol on it.

"They should be here soon." Ren said, as he wore a forest green and pink swimming trunks. "Right about…"

"Oh boys~"

"Now."

The young men all turned towards the source of the voice and immediately sucked in their breaths at the sight in front of them. In front of them were all the girls of their teams, wearing what they think to be the hottest bikinis they ever wore. For starters all of their swimsuits were two-piece bikinis and were highlighted by the emblems that were printed somewhere on said bikinis, but the fact that they were so curvy in all the right places had the boys gobsmacked at how sexy they looked.

"Mamma mia…" Orpheus gaped.

"I guess you were right, Yang." Koa remarked.

"Like what you see?" Yang winked.

"Uh…" Kurogasa gulped hard.

"O-Otou-sama, stop staring so hard. It's embarrassing." Yukina blushed, feeling conscious as she covered her chest with her arms.

"Suman!" Kurogasa apologized, looking away. "It's just…" He trailed off, before looking at Weiss. "!"

*SPURRRRRRRRRRRRRT!*

Kurogasa covered his nose when blood slowly trickled through his hands.

"Kuro, are you okay?!" Weiss panicked as she rushed to his side.

"I'm fine… I'm totally fine. This is perfectly normal for us Japanese…" Kurogasa muttered.

"How is this normal?!" Weiss cried out.

"Welp, there's the blood fountain." Aaron said with a smirk before he went back to admiring the girls. "Anyways, you girls look really good in those."

"R-Really? You think so?" Ruby asked sheepishly, though looking embarrassed as she blushed.

"Never lied about that." Aaron shrugged before gesturing to the other young men. "And your swimsuits are definitely having an effect on them."

"Um uh…" Jaune gulped as he was staring hard at Pyrrha or rather…

"J-Jaune, my eyes are up here." Pyrrha stuttered.

"Ah uh s-sorry!" Jaune stuttered blushing as he looked away. Rei walked in as well, wearing a waterproof shirt and shorts over a one piece swimsuit.

"Nice suit, Rei!" Melody gave her best friend a thumbs up.

"You think so, Pup?" Rei asked, turning around to show off more of their outfit and a few well toned muscles.

"Yeah! What do you think Mik-" she began, before blushing crimson at Miko.

The catgirl was wearing a rather skimpy purple-black two-piece bikini with the top showcasing a decent amount of cleavage and the bottoms showcasing a bit of her butt cheeks.

"What? What is it?" Miko asked, looking at the Wolf Faunus. Melody could only stare at her for what seemed like forever until she threw her head back and-

*SPURRRRRRRRRRRRRRT!*

"Ah, looks like Mel was affected too." Aaron remarked, giving the wolf girl a little smirk as Melody tried to cover her nose to conceal the nosebleed she got.

"I-I'm so sorry, Miko! I didn't mean to-"

"N-No, it's fine." Miko said with a blush of her own. "Really, don't worry about it."

Rei snickered as Mel tried to clean up the blood on her. She gave them an elbow as they kept snickering.

"Well now that that's out of the way, let's enjoy the beach!"

"YEAH!"

And so everyone began enjoying the beautiful Sunny beach! Ruby and Orion were taking a stroll along the shoreline, picking up seashells for their aptly named 'Ultimate Huntress Rider Sand Castle'.

"Ooh what about this one?" Ruby asked, bending down to reach towards one of the shells.

"Ruby, wait!" Orion tried to stop her, but it was too late…

"Eh?" Ruby turned, holding the shell which revealed a very unhappy hermit crab. She finally noticed the crab and reflexively dropped it. "Eep!"

*SNAP!*

"YEOW!" Ruby began hopping around in pain, holding her foot as the hermit crab was pinching her toe. "IT'S GOT ME! GET IT OFF, GET IT OFF, GET IT OFF, GET IT OFF!" She cried out. She then swung her leg back and forth, trying to fling the crab, but it held on like a vice grip.

"Stop flailing!" Orion cried out.

"But it huuuuurts! Owowowowowowowow!"

"If you keep doing that, you're gonna-"

*DING DONG!*

Orion was cut off when Ruby's kicking and flailing about scored a hit on a tender spot on his body. One that had him bent over and dry heaving.

"Ahhhhhh~" Orion wheezed.

"Oh my gosh, Orion, I'm so sorry!" Ruby panicked, as she managed to fling the crab off her foot and into the sea, before hobbling over to him and kneeling next to her boyfriend. "Are you okay?!"

"I… am in… so much… pain…" Orion said in between gasps of air. "Why? Why do men suffer this kind of punishment?"

"I'm so sorry! I really am!" Ruby panicked. "What do I do? What should I do!?"

"Ruby… calm down. I just… need ice." Orion told his girlfriend.

"R-Right, I'll go get it!" Ruby stuttered before running off… but then stumbled forward and face planted into the sand. "Ow…" She muffled out.

Meanwhile at another part of the beach, Kurogasa and Weiss were walking along the coastline, the gentle waves crashing into the sand and splashing against their feet as they were walking together hand-in-hand. Even the sea breeze cooling them down made the walk more enjoyable.

"Are you sure you're okay?" Weiss asked.

"Y-Yeah, I'm fine. Really." Kurogasa smiled sheepishly. "The whole nosebleed thing just… looked worse than it really was."

"Well at least you look like you're better now." Weiss remarked.

"Yeah, and you still look as beautiful as ever."

"Oh you charmer," Weiss gave Kuro a little nudge, which made the man smirk.

"Oh no! I'm gonna fall!" Kurogasa playfully said as he pretended to have tripped, holding onto Weiss. The heiress released a small yelp before cutely pouting at her boyfriend.

"You meanie…"

"Sorry, but at least I know you still care." Kurogasa winked, before straightening up again and the two continued walking, taking in the scenery. "This reminds me of the days I went on vacation with my parents to the beach during Golden Week."

"Oh? How so?" Weiss inquired.

"Well, in Japan, Golden Week is a special time of the year where there are so many holidays clustered in that whole week. So families and friends take the whole week off work to spend time together. Whether at the beach or a ski resort, or even at a hot spring."

"It sounds fun." The heiress remarked.

"Yeah, it was. Those were the days…" Kurogasa trailed off, looking out to sea.

"Kuro?"

"Sorry… even after that two-week vacation to visit my family after so long, I still miss them." Kurogasa smiled sadly.

"…I believe that they miss you too." Weiss said, giving him a hug.

"You really think so, huh?"

"Of course, they're your parents. And you're their son. It's only natural. And besides, your love for each other and the memories you and they have, they're always close in your heart, no matter how far apart you are."

"Weiss…" Kurogasa muttered, before returning the hug with a smile. "I'm so lucky to have you in my life. Oyaji and Kaa-san would love you for a daughter-in-law."

Weiss smiled before the two continued their walk.

"COWABUNGA!" Yang cheered, as she was surfing the waves on a surfboard with flaming decals on it. The waves were rolling in as she was pipeline surfing, being able to glide across the water with ease.

"Since when can Yang do that?" Aaron couldn't help but wonder.

"Not sure…" Blake shrugged, reading a book. "You mind putting some sunscreen on my back?"

"Huh? Oh yeah, sur-" Aaron paused mid sentence when he realized that Blake was laying on her front on top of a beach towel, the large umbrella stuck in the sand next to her, to provide shade. But what made him pause was Blake having the top half of her bikini unclasped, revealing her bare back, while keeping her breasts covered.

"Uh…" Aaron was stuttering to find his words, blushing.

"Don't be shy… come on I won't bite~."

"Um…"

"Papa, can you put some on my back too?" Miko asked, as Aaron looked to see… that she was in the same position as her mother. Not to mention that her curves were very tantalizing-

'NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!' Aaron yelled in his thoughts, shaking his head violently. 'I mustn't think about my daughter like that! I am a man of honor, not a pervert!'

"I'll help!" Melody said, her face red as she had tissues in her nostrils.

"Melody, I don't think you should-" Blake got out.

"It's fine! I can totally focus on Miko! You and Uncle Aaron can have your fun too!" Melody exclaimed as her blush grew and was panting heavily. Her pupils were swirly as if she had gone crazy.

Aaron sweatdropped. "Maybe… I should do it instead."

"NO!" Melody snapped, much to his surprise. "Mine!"

"Mel-"

"Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr…!" She growled. "My kitty!"

"Mel-"

"MINE!"

Miko and Blake sighed with a sweat drop, watching the two argue.

Rei was humming a familiar tune as they were making a sand sculpture of Kamen Rider OOO. "You count the medals one, two, and three…" they sang under their breath, unaware of the crowd they were gathering. "Life goes on, anything goes, coming up OOO…"

A few guys and gals were staring at Rei, in complete awe at them.

"Whew! Finished!" Rei said inspecting the sculpture, wiping their brow. They turn to tell their dad, only to be met by the crowd. "Uh…"

Orpheus watched this unfold, as Koa was sleeping under a pile of sand with her head sticking out. "Guess fame runs in the family…" Orpheus mused, chuckling to himself.

"Jaune!" Pyrrha called out as she bounced the volleyball high up in the air.

"I got it!" Jaune said, jumping up and then spiking it towards Nora and Ren's side.

"Ren!" Nora says, getting ready to jump. He nodded as he bounced the ball into the air, to which Nora would leap high into the air. She reared her arm back and delivered a powerful spike to the ball. The only problem was that she spiked it a little too hard, as the ball flew past the two and smacked Koa in the face as she was just waking up.

"Uhhhh… oops?" Nora said sheepishly.

"Nora!" Orpheus exclaimed. "What have you done!?"

"Uhhhhh… I… spiked the ball?" She answered with a nervous laugh.

"On my girlfriend's face!?"

"You're on your own…" Ren said, walking away, and over to the nearby beach shack to grab some shaved ice. A dark aura surrounded Koa's head, as the ball rolled off her now red face.

"So… you wanna play rough do ya?!" Koa said as she popped out of the sand.

"Uh…" Nora gulped.

"We better get out of here." Jaune suggested.

"Yeah, good idea." Pyrrha agreed as the two of them left.

"Guys, you can't just leave me!" Nora cried out in dismay.

"Sorry, Nora. We promise to say good things and leave you a plate of pancakes at your grave." Jaune told the thunderous girl.

Koa slowly got up, cracking her knuckles and neck with a big smirk on her head. "Better start running, Valkyrie!" Koa said, the menacing aura surrounding her.

"Wait hold on! I'm sorry, it was an accident! Really! I didn't mean it!" Nora panicked, waving her hands frantically.

"Too late. Revenge is a dish best served… cold."

Seeing that the Greeed couldn't be reasoned with, Nora had one final option left… and that was to run like hell for her life!

"I'M COMING FOR YOU!" Koa exclaimed, chasing after Nora leaving a huge trail of sand.

Phrasing…

"NO FOURTH WALL BREAKS!"

Damn…

Yin and Yukina were at a hotdog stand, getting a meal for the entire family.

"So that's two number nines, a number nine large, a number six with extra dip… am I missing anything, babe?" Yin asked his girlfriend.

"There were also four numbers sevens, four number tens, two number eights, a number five, a number three… and a diet soda."

The cashier sweatdropped as they wrote it down. "Alright… gimme a minute… that'll be 246 Lien and 60 cents!"

Yin's jaw dropped to the floor at the price, to which Yukina rolled her eyes and closed his mouth. Yukina then presented her black card to the cashier to which he took and swiped it on the card reader, accepting the payment.

"Thank you for your purchase. We will have your order ready soon."

"Must be nice to be so loaded." Yin commented.

"To be fair, this is grandfather's card." Yukina said.

"Wait what? When did you- oh yeah, we're from the future…"

Meanwhile in Atlas…

"Who's spending my Lien on… hot dogs!?" Jacques exclaimed in shock, looking at a notification on his Scroll.

Back at the beach, Teams RWBY, JOKR, JNPR, MYYR, Miko, and Koa all met up in one spot to have lunch. Yukina and Yin had brought everyone's food while Ren brought all the shaved ice. And Nora had a lot of bruises swelling on her face, after Koa unleashed her wrath.

"We got the food and- what happened to you Aunt Nora?" Yin asked after seeing Nora's face. Koa gave her a hard look, making her flinch.

"Um… I fell?" Nora said, rubbing the back of her head.

"Well, maybe you should be more careful then." Koa said with a smirk, causing Orpheus to facepalm.

"Uh… anyway let's eat!"

The group began chowing down, enjoying the food, but as they were eating, a few people were eyeing some of the girls and Rei.

"Dude, you see what I'm seeing?"

"Like gnarly, bro, that chick has some sick abs!"

"Ugh… don't they realize we're already taken?" Weiss rolled her eyes in annoyance.

"I think those two have more muscles than brains…" Rei said, shrugging it off. Orpheus was trying not to get mad at the guys ogling the girls, especially Koa.

"Grr…" Orpheus was gritting his teeth.

"Come on man, just ignore them, it's not worth it." Orion said, trying to calm down his teammate.

"They're trying to hit on Koa…" Orpheus growled.

"Well at least they aren't trying to hit on Ruby…" Orion said only to see that they were hitting on the group of girls including his. "They're hitting on Ruby…"

"Wanna teach these trash bags a lesson?"

"I got this…" Kurogasa growled, cracking his knuckles before standing up and walking over to the two guys hitting on them. He clamped on both of their shoulders, causing them to turn around and Kurogasa's expression was horrid as his head was raised, eyes looking down on them, while bearing his teeth, showing his superiority to these two wannabes. "Yo… you two wanna die? Huuuuuuh~?"

The two dudes instantly turned pale as if they've seen a ghost. "Meep!" Was all that came out of their mouths.

"Get out of my sight, you pathetic cretins…"

The dudes ran as far away as they could from Kurogasa.

"Well that takes care of them." The young samurai said, satisfied before looking back at the girls who stared at him. "What?"

"Jealous, much?" Yang teased with a smirk.

"Urusai…" Kurogasa muttered with a red tint to his cheeks.

"It's okay. We understand… Mr. Jealous." Yang chuckled while the other girls giggled.

"Oi! Everyone! Over here!" Everyone turned to see Aaron waving them over. "I've finished it!"

"You finished… what exactly?"

"Making a boat, water skis, and a wakeboard!" The man presents the items in question, making the group sweat drop.

"How much free time do you have, man?"

"There's always free time!" Aaron declared. "Also, I get bored reeeeaaaaal quick. So who wants to surf on the wakeboard first? Kuro? Okay then, thanks!"

"Wait what?! I didn't agree to this!" Kurogasa cried out. "Besides, I can't even swim! That's how I-"

"Get on the wakeboard and I'll have Weiss teach ya how to swim."

"Wait what?" Kurogasa looked at Weiss confused. "When was this?"

"Right now." Aaron said, shoving the wakeboard into Kurogasa's arms then grabbed him by his shoulders. "Deep breaths." And threw him towards the water.

"Uwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!"

*SPLASH!*

Moments later Kurogasa burst out of the water, flailing and gasping for air as he panicked. "Dammit Aaron! I told you I can't swim!"

"Otou-sama!" Yukina cried out as she jumped into the water.

"Huh, did he lose the wakeboard already?" Aaron rubbed his chin. "No worries, I got a spare." He produced said wakeboard from hammerspace. Meanwhile, Yukina swam over to her father before managing to keep him steady.

"Ahhhh… tasukatta…" Kurogasa sighed in relief.

"Otou-sama, daijobu?" Yukina asked.

"Ahh…" Kurogasa nodded. "Arigatou, Yukina… you saved my life."

"You would've been fine! No one dies in a Beach episode!" Aaron shouted.

"I ALMOST DID, YA PRICK!"

"Okay, rude…" Aaron deadpanned. "Welp, anyone else wanna volunteer?" he asked, turning to the others, but they all took a step back. "Eh?"

"Yeah, we're not going near you." Jaune said bluntly.

"Get in the water."

"All in favor of a beach mutiny say aye!" Ruby called out.

"Aye!" The rest said.

"A mutiny, eh? Okay…" Aaron reached behind his back… and pulled out a giant robot claw. "Guess I'll use this. You might wanna run. This is my field test with this baby."

That's when everyone else brought out their weapons.

"Wanna say that again, Wolfie?" Koa asked.

"Yeah," Aaron pressed a button on the claw… and it turned into a giant robot with him as the pilot. "Field test. Oh, and…" The armor of the robot opened up to reveal several missiles aimed at the group. "I got more firepower."

"Oh c'mon, seriously?!" Orion complained.

"He has way too much free time on his hands…" Ren deadpanned.

After a few minutes of 'persuasive' debating, the group was now on the boat with Orion using the wakeboard.

"I keep forgetting how Uncle Aaron is scary when motivated." Rei muttered.

"I can see that he's like that in the future…" Ruby added with a sweat drop.

"Anyway let's get to wakeboarding!"

Turning the key on the ignition, the boat came to life with its engine roaring before revving it and the boat took off with Orion hanging onto the handle, wakeboarding… at least until Orion realized Aaron was going too fast and held onto the handle for dear life, leaving the wakeboard itself behind.

"AARON, SLOW DOOOOOOOOWN!" Orion wailed.

"WHAT?! I CAN'T HEAR YOU!" Aaron responded.

"I SAID, SLOW DOOOOOOOOOOOOWN!"

"WHAT?!"

"DAMMIT I'M GONNA KILL YOU! UWHAAAAAAAAAA!"

*SPLASH!*

"Oh, he fell in the water." Aaron said matter-of-factly as he stopped the boat.

"Gee, I wonder why…" Jaune rolled his eyes.

"You wanna join him?"

"I uh-"

"Yes? Good, thanks for volunteering."

"Wait what?! No! I had no say in this!" Jaune protested.

"Too late." Aaron said, casually picking up Jaune then throwing him overboard.

"UWHAAAAAAAAAAA!"

*SPLASH!*

"NOW!" Ruby suddenly shouted as everyone now jumped on Aaron and hoisted him up into the air.

"Hey, what are you doing?! Let me go! Let go I say!" Aaron cried out, as he flailed about, but to no avail.

"Everybody ready?!" Ruby asked.

"Yeah!"

"HEAVE! HO!" Ruby said, before all of them threw him into the water.

"WHOAAAA!"

*SPLASH!*

"Kuro, let's grab the twins and get out of here!" Ruby said.

"Way ahead of ya." Kurogasa said as he took control of the boat and started the engine before swerving around so that the others could grab the Arc Twins. After that, they sailed back to shore leaving Aaron stranded once he surfaced for air.

"SO LONG SUCKER!" Koa and Nora shouted, sticking their tongues out at him.

"HEY! GET BACK HERE!" Aaron shouted, before doing a freestyle swim after the boat.

"You think he's gonna be mad after this?" Rei asked Melody, watching Aaron in the distance.

"Oh, definitely."

"He had it coming. That's what he gets for throwing me into the water when he knows I can't swim." Kurogasa huffed as he kept driving. Weiss gave him a reassuring pat on the shoulder and a kiss on his cheek, to which he pouted with a blush.

The boat proceeds to drive into the sunset, as Aaron keeps on swimming after them, shouting angrily at them.

Later on, everyone was back at the beach with Aaron mad as hell that they all left him stranded, but at the same time, he was tired after all that swimming. All of them were gathered at a campfire they had set up at the beach while eating their dinners.

"You guys are the worst…" Aaron grumbled, as he was chowing down on a kebab.

"Awe you still love us, you big baby." Yang teased with a chuckle, which made him grumble even more.

"My vengeance will be swift. It will be painful. And it will be when you least expect it."

"Sure, whatever you say, Batman…" Orion rolled his eyes.

"Still, this was a fun day. Definitely what we needed before the Vytal Festival." Ruby beamed.

"Indeed. Once the Festival starts, we'll be busy fighting other teams from all four Kingdoms." Ren stated.

"In which case, Team JOKR will be the victor." Aaron remarked.

"Not while we're around." Nora grinned competitively, punching her fist against an empty palm. "Cause Team JNPR's gonna go home with the gold!"

"Not a chance! This is Team RWBY's year to shine! Am I right, ladies?" Yang asked her teammates.

"Yeah! We're gonna win this one!" Ruby cheered.

"It's going to be a fierce competition, but I'm confident we'll emerge victorious." Weiss nodded.

"Yep," Blake said while looking at her book…and eating a stick of smoked tuna.

"Don't forget us!" Yin chimed in. "We're gonna show ya that we outgrew you all by a mile."

"But…you guys aren't actually students." Jaune pointed out as he looked at the future kids.

"I'm pretty sure Ozpin made us students when we first showed up." Rei said.

"But you'd still have to choose only four people." Orpheus stated.

"I don't mind staying back." Miko said.

"Are you sure?" Blake asked her daughter.

"I am, mama. I'm not really competitive." Miko answered.

"Then make sure you cheer for me from the stands!" Melody grinned.

"Okay, I'll be sure to cheer for everyone." The catgirl pumped her arms in a rather adorable manner. Melody looked ready to pounce her girlfriend, but Yukina kept her grounded.

"Sit down, Melody." Yukina said.

"But-"

"Sit."

The wolf girl immediately obeyed the order, sitting down on her bumper with her wolf ears flat against her head while a whine left her throat.

"Good girl." Yukina smiled.

"Grrrrrrrrrr…" Melody growled.

"Wow, your girl can whip just about anyone." Yang said to Weiss.

"She takes it after her mom, after all." Orion commented.

"And just what's that supposed to mean?" Weiss huffed.

"Easy Weiss Cream, no need to melt." Yang joked.

"Yang, no. Just…no." Kurogasa shook his head in disappointment.

"How is it that every time we get together, you always make bad jokes?" Aaron asked his blonde bombshell of a girlfriend.

"I don't know!" Yang exclaimed comically.

"Hopefully, we can do this again sometime." Pyrrha said.

"Yeah, hopefully…" Aaron trailed off, as he stared at the fire, remembering the events of Vol. 3 that will eventually come to pass. The Fall Beacon, Yang losing her arm, Adam stabbing Blake, Pyrrha killed at the hands of Cinder…

"Aaron, is something wrong?" Blake asked.

"Huh?" The crimson-eyed teen looked at his other girlfriend and shook his head. "Oh, no. It's nothing. Just thinking about stuff."

"You can think about stuff for later, Papa." Miko smiled, hugging his arm, while leaning on her head on his shoulder. "Right now, just think about spending the rest of the day with us. We're all family, aren't we?"

Aaron smiled and placed a hand on his future daughter's head. "Yeah…we're family." He said while his thoughts drifted. 'And I'll do all I can to protect my family.'
