Son of a Conqueror
AN/ yep I wrote something.
Chapter 2 it begins
Iskandar sat on his chariot with a board expression as he stared over the remains of the village around him. He yawned as he looked down the road before that led to the village entrance where the gates sat in ruin. 'Why hasn't anyone returned yet?' Iskandar thought as he stood up falling onto the ground as he turned to look over the buildings around him. He has been waiting in this village for the last 3 days after his arrival into this strange world. He took a deep breath as he crossed his arms over his chest as he turned to look at a set of graves he had made as he saw the young boy he had saved when he first arrived.
"Jaune you mustn't cry, you should be strong. Your father would have wanted you to be strong."
Iskandar said as he knelt next to the boy as he sniffled staring at the grave with the name Jeremiah Arc carved into the wooden plank used as a head stone. Jaune just rubbed his nose as he sniffled and stood up wiping his eyes as he looked up to Iskandar.
"D-do you know w-where my m-mom and sisters are?"
Jaune asked as Iskandar just shook his head as he clapped his hand on Jaune's back. Jaune was small so Iskandar's hand coved his entire back.
"I am sorry my boy, but I do not know where they are." Iskandar said as he looked around and cupped his chin in thought. "I had hoped people would return to this village so I could claim this village as my first conquest but it seems no one wants to come back."
Iskandar said as Jaune just raised a brow at him in confusion.
"What do you mean your first conquest?"
Jaune asked as Iskandar smiled at him as he clapped him on the head.
"Remember I told you I am the King of Conquerors so it is only natural that I want to conqueror this land!"
Iskandar exclaimed as Jaune just stared at him in both awe and confusion.
"You mean you're a real king?"
Jaune asked as Iskandar smiled brightly at him.
"Of course I am, I have never lied and I never begin to lie!"
Iskandar shouted as Jaune smiled at him.
"So you will help me find my family?"
Jaune asked hopefully as Iskandar's smile faltered some before looking down at him.
"I don't know if we can find them but yes I will help you." Iskandar said as Jaune went up and hugged his leg as Iskandar smiled. Iskandar let out a relieved sigh as he turned and looked over the remains of the village. "But I won't do everything for you so I want to ask will you be willing to let me train you to fight?"
Iskandar asked as Jaune stared up to him before looking down to his father's grave sadly before taking deep breath and looking up to Iskandar determinedly.
"Yes, I want to learn how to fight."
Jaune said as Iskandar smiled at him picking Jaune up setting him on his shoulder.
"If so you will need some teachers and I have just the men for the job!"
Iskandar exclaimed as Jaune looked at him confused.
"What do you mean? I haven't seen anyone with you sense we met."
Jaune said as Iskandar just smiled as he crosses his arms of his chest as a large gust of wind seemed to emanate from him as he stood with Jaune on his shoulder as he tried to hold on so he didn't fall over.
"The King is the one who collects the envy of all his heroes and stands as their guide; therefore, he is not alone- for his will equals that of all his followers combined!" Iskandar shouted as he threw his arms wide as a blinding light engulfed Jaune and him before him. Jaune's eyes opened again when the winds died. He was met with the sight of a desert in duns all around a sun blazing ahead as he stared in amazement. "This world is the embodiment of my dreams and the dreams of my men who served me!" Iskandar shouted as Jaune turned around looking behind him as he heard what he thought was a stampeded only to see an army before him. "This is my Noble Phantasm, Ionian Hetairoi!"
Iskandar exclaimed at the top of his lungs and men all came towards him and Jaune.
"T-thi…"
Jaune couldn't talk as he was left speechless as he impersonated a fish staring at the sight before him.
"These men Jaune shall train you to become a great warrior." Iskandar said as Jaune looked down to him as he gave him a thumb up. "Shall we begin your training now?"
Iskandar asked as Jaune nodded vigorously at him.

Jaune walked down the hall towards the locker room smiling as he looked at all the sights before him. 'No wonder father told me to make this my first Conquest.' Jaune thought as he looked over the castle made into a school. Jaune turned as he looked to his right as he saw people walking past him into the locker room. Jaune just smiled as he followed them. He pulled out his scroll as he entered the room looking at the number of his locker. As he walked through the hall he saw Yang and Ruby chatting while an orange haired girl and boy dressed in green walked past them.
"Hey Yang, Ruby how are you guys?"
Jaune asked as he walked up to the girls as they turned to him smiling.
"Hey Jaune we're good, what about you?"
Ruby asked as she looked up to Jaune as Yang grabbed her by her head pulling her back.
"We're good Jaune, so you know we will have teams right, so what would you say about being my partner?"
Yang said as she smiled at Jaune who just smiled at her as Ruby glared at her older sister before turning back to Jaune.
"No, Jaune, don't be her partner, she's just asking you so she could leave me behind!"
Ruby exclaimed as Jaune just chuckled while Yang pulled her into a headlock.
"Easy now sis your jealousy is showing."
Yang teased as she gave ruffled Ruby's hair. Jaune laughed at the scene as Yang let Ruby go.
"Easy now both of you, while I am thankful you offered to be my teammates." Jaune said as Yang and Ruby smiled at him although Yang pushed Ruby back by her face causing her to growl angrily at her sister. "But you two make a better pair, but if the situation arises I would gladly be on your team."
Jaune said clapping Ruby on the head as he waved at Yang walking past them down to his locker. As he did though he saw the Spartan he had seen the day before who was talking with the girl who had been yelling at Ruby when he first saw her. The red Spartan looked uncomfortable as the girl in white talked to her before turning away a dark smile on her lips. Jaune just raised a brow at her in confusion as he walked up behind the two. 'What is going on here she looks like she is planning world domination?' Jaune thought as he laughed at the idea of anyone other than his Father taking over the whole world.
"Good day."
Jaune greeted as the Spartan turned to him smiling at him brightly while the girl in white spun around and raised a brow at him questionably.
"Good day, and who are you?"
The girl in white said sharply as Jaune just narrowed his eyes at her as he crossed his arms over his chest.
"It's rude to ask someone for their name before giving your own."
Jaune said as the girl in white's eyes widened slightly before coughing into her hand as she looked back to Jaune patting down her skirt.
"You're right that was rude of me, my name is Weiss Schnee."
Weiss said as Jaune smiled at her.
"It is nice to meet you Weiss, I am Jaune Arc, care to introduce your companion?"
Jaune asked as Weiss raised a brow before waving a hand towards the Spartan next to her.
"This is Pyrrha Nikos four-time Mistral tournament Champion." Weiss said as Jaune watched the Pyrrha's smile fall some at the champion title before it came back. "I am sure you know who she and I are and we were just…"
Weiss began only for Jaune to speak up stopping her.
"I have no clue to who either of you are, I never heard your names before in my life."
Jaune said with a small smile as he looked between Weiss' shocked face and Pyrrha's happier expression.
"Are you serious?"
Weiss asked as Jaune nodded.
"Yes I have never heard your names before, are you important somewhere?"
Jaune asked as Weiss just stared flabbergasted at him while Pyrrha just seemed to brighten.
"How do you not know who we are?"
Weiss asked in shock as Pyrrha just seemed to look at her disappointedly while Jaune just raised a brow at her.
"I spent almost all my time training, I never had time to look into anything outside of our own kingdom."
Jaune said as Weiss just raised a brow at her while Pyrrha looked to him questionably.
"What kingdom do you hail from?"
Pyrrha asked before Weiss could as she seemed genuinely interested in knowing.
"I hail from New Macedonia."
Jaune said while Weiss and Pyrrha stared at him in surprise as they shared a look before turning back to him.
"Really, New Macedonia has only been a kingdom for 8 years now, it is in Sanus, right?"
Pyrrha asked not knowing much about it as Jaune just smiled at them as he nodded.
"Well my Father just needed to find a proper footing to build the kingdom but he was surprised at how easy it was to actually build a kingdom."
Jaune said fondly while Weiss and Pyrrha stared wide eyed and shocked at him.
"Wait your father, are you telling us you are the son of King Alexander of Macedonia?!"
Weiss asked in shock as Jaune just smiled at her.
"Indeed I am." Jaune said nodding at them as Weiss just stared at him in shock while Pyrrha looked more impressed. The girls looked like they wanted to ask more questions but they couldn't as a voice came over the loudspeaker announcing where the first years should go towards the cliffs. Jaune just smiled at that as he looked down to the girl. "Well, looks like we'll have to continue this conversation another time."
Jaune said waving to the girls as he turned away as he walked out of the locker rooms.

A large line of people stood in all sorts of clothing and sets of armor before a large cliff overlooking a forest. The people all stared to the side where a man dressed in green with grey hair stood next to a blonde woman. The man and woman seemed to be talking about the initiation test for all the students. They explained the initiation quickly and then let all the students get sent flying off into the forest one by one. As they did Ruby stood next to the man and woman listening to them as she looked at her right where she saw an empty launch plate. 'I don't see Jaune, where is he?' Ruby thought as she looked to Yang who stood next to her as she could tell she was thinking the same thing. Ruby turned back to the man in green as she raised her hand.
"Um Ozpin, I believe we're missing someone, do you think we could wait for him?"
Ruby asked as Ozpin just shook his head at him.
"No, if this missing student doesn't show up he is going to miss the test…"
Ozpin said pausing as he heard hoofs clopping coming from his left as he and Ruby turned to be met with the sight of a giant horse with a Jaune on its back. The horse was giant with a sleek figure but muscles that showed all its power as the horse charged.
"Charge Bucephalus!"
Jaune shouted at the top of his lungs as Ruby and Ozpin stared in shock as Jaune and the horse charged towards the cliff at high speeds not even slowing down. The next thing Ozpin and Ruby knew Jaune had ridden the horse off the cliff. As Jaune and the horse jumped off the cliff shouting at the top of his lungs as he did. Ruby heard Yang get sent flying into the forest as Jaune and the horse just went over the cliff. Only the horse didn't fall it seemed to run through the air on lightning for a bit before falling out of the sky as Jaune and the horse fell towards the forest.
"Jaune, horsey nooo!"
Ruby shouted as she then heard her own launch plate sent her flying off into the forest after her sister. Ozpin just stood staring off the cliff his eyes slightly wide at what had just happened.
"Ozpin did I just see a blonde boy ride a giant horse off a cliff and fly for 20 feet?"
The blonde woman asked as Ozpin nodded.
"Yes, Glynda, yes you did."
Ozpin said flatly as he lifted a coffee mug up and took a sip. 'Well Jaune Arc, you are certainly an entertaining fellow.' Ozpin thought as he looked over the forest to wait to see what would happen next within the forest. Glynda just stood staring shocked as she let her scroll slip out of her hands.

Pyrrha crashed through several tree's before coming to a stop as she rolled along a giant branch as she shot to her feet pulling her rifle to her shoulder aiming out over the forest in hopes to find someone to partner with. As Pyrrha did though she saw something that shocked her as she saw Jaune riding a horse through the sky. She stared for a few seconds in confusion as she tried to figure out what was going on before shaking her head as she looked back through the scope to only to find Jaune and the horse gone. 'What did I just see?' Pyrrha thought in shock as she tried to figure out what had just happened.

Jaune and Bucephalus landed within the forest with a loud thump as they hit the ground. Jaune looked around smiling brightly as he pat Bucephalus as he jumped off its back landing with a light thump.
"Thank you Bucephalus, I won't need you for the rest of this test, I shall call upon you again when I need you."
Jaune said patting the horse's neck as it huffed and vanished into nothingness with a flash of purple. Jaune just smiled as he turned around looking over the forest and the tall grass around him. 'Time to begin my initiation.' Jaune thought as he began to walk through the forest wondering when he would meet someone who knows what they are supposed to be doing for the initiation. Jaune turned and began to walk through the forest in a random direction in hopes of meeting someone. Jaune didn't get three feet before hearing hissing as he turned to see a giant white snake.
"A King Taijitu, this will be fun."
Jaune said with a smile as he drew his sword and prepared to battle the King Taijitu. Jaune quickly charged the beast as it shot forward lunging at him as he jumped over it slashing along its back as he did. The snake hissed in pain as Jaune fell onto its back reversing his grip on his sword stabbing it into the snakes back as he slid down it. The snake let out a scream as Jaune's sword dug into its back cutting down it with ease. Jaune quickly kicked off the King Taijitu as he hit the ground tucking in his shoulder rolling as he did coming back up to his feet with ease. Jaune quickly brought his sword up before him bracing the flat of it against his forearm as he blocked a head from the beast as he held his ground the snake's body seeming to fold in on itself as the ground under Jaune exploded beneath him with chunks of earth being sent up with a cloud of dust.
Jaune smiled as the snake let out a hiss of pain before he kicked its head back as he shifted his grip on his sword again as he shot forward slashing across the snake's underbelly. The snake let out a deep screech as its head flew back crashing into the ground. Jaune smiled as he spun on his heels shifting his body to lean back as he slashed across the black head of the King Taijitu as it flew past him as it tried to get a sneak attack on him. Jaune bent his knees as he jumped back from the second head as it screeched turning towards him as it hissed at him. Jaune just smiled at it as its white head slithered through the tall grass behind him. He just shifted his body aiming his sword behind him keeping his left hand up ready for either of the heads to attack. He smiled as he watched the black snake head come flying at him as he jumped to the side quickly punching the head away as it screeched. Jaune quickly spun to his right as he saw the white snake head coming at him as he cut along its neck.
The snakes screeched as the white head crashed into the ground flipping around as the black head quickly came towards him on his right. Jaune just smiled as he slammed the bladed pommel into the black snake's head as it came into range. Jaune used the sword to pull himself onto the snake's head as he grabbed hold of one of the bone plates on the head with his left hand. He pulled up his sword reversing his grip plunging the blade into the snake's head as the snake screeched in pain. He pulled the blade down the beast's head as it let out one last screech before dying. Jaune smiled as he pulled his sword out of the beast's head as he turned in time to see the white head pulling itself off the ground as it screeched at him. He just laughed at the beast as he took his sword into a two-handed grip as it shot towards him as he ducked under its head as he slashed up decapitating it with one clean slash. Jaune just smiled at the dead King Taijitu as its body began to fade away around him.
Jaune smiled before he felt a presence behind him as he heard a strange sound came from behind him.
"Qrrraaww! Qrrraaww!"
He quickly spun around aiming his sword up only to be met with the sight of an orange haired hanging upside down behind him. He lowered his sword as he looked at the girl who smiled widely at him as she waved. The girl was dressed in a white sleeveless shirt with a black vest on and long white sleeves with pink fingerless gloves and a pink skirt.
"Hello there."
Jaune greeted as the girl smiled at him.
"Hello, you aren't Ren."
The girl said as she cocked her head to the side as Jaune just smiled at her.
"What is a Ren?"
Jaune asked as the girl just giggle.
"Ren isn't a thing; Ren is my childhood friend!" The girl cheered as she reached out poking him in the nose. "You silly little man. Boop."
The girl said as she poked him on the nose as he smiled at her poking her in the nose himself.
"Apologies, well them my name is Jaune, who might you be?"
Jaune asked as the girl smiled widely at him.
"I am Nora and now we are partners!"
The girl cheered as Jaune just smiled at her as he reached up pulling her out of the tree.
"If you say so, now can you explain what the initiation test is?"
Jaune asked as Nora just chuckled at him.
"Well Sir Jaune, we must first charge into a temple and retrieve a relic from within and battle to victory!"
Nora cheered as Jaune smiled at her.
"Then let us charge into battle and conquer this temple!"
Jaune shouted drawing his sword as he slashed it into the sky as lightning cracked out of nowhere as and a giant horse appeared before him. Jaune jumped onto the horse with ease as he reached down to Nora smiling brightly.
"Shall we?"
Jaune asked as Nora just stared her eyes sparkling as she stared at the horse.
"That was so awesome!"
Nora shouted as she took Jaune's hand as he pulled her up onto the horse.
"Let us go then Bucephalus!"
Jaune shouted as he pulled the rains as they charged forward through the forest as Nora directed him.
