Tonight was the Night. The Beacon Academy Dance before the Vytal Festival, and Everyone was Invited. The Guys were all dressed up in suits that can only be described by the ZZ Top song; Sharp Dressed Man. And the Ladies were all dolled up to impress them. We See Yang, Weiss, and Ruby walking to the entrance, with Ruby having her arms wrapped around Asta's. Asta was wearing a plain-white tunic with a V-shaped collar underneath a dark blue jacket whose sleeves extend only up to his elbows. He sports a pair of matching shorts which has a stitch marks on the left side. His pants also extends just below his knees. His shoes are made out of two different cloths, the parts covering his ankles, the soles the same color as his jacket and pants. The parts covering his toes are white, a vertical stitch mark going from the bridge to his toes. He was also wearing a Black Tie, which he was struggling with, "Man... I hate these things," He said, "I Look ridiculous."
"You Look Fine," Ruby replied, "And besides... It's Only for tonight, so try to have fun and smile." Asta couldn't help but smile back at his date, which Ruby replied with her own smile, before Yang wrapped her arms around her little sister, almost making Ruby lose her balance.
"Ooohh, You Look Beautiful!" She said, earning a groan from her sister.
"Can we have a serious talk about how you fights in these, Weiss?" Ruby said to her teammate.
"It takes some practice," Weiss replied, "But you'll get used to it." The four walked up to the entrance, where they see Neptune waiting for them... Well... Weiss, especially, "Shall we?" She asked her date, Offering her arm, as Neptune wrapped his arm around hers.
"We shall." He replied, as they walked in, with Yang, Ruby and Asta following behind them. Sun is seen walking around and wearing a new black jacket (now closed up) with a white tie hung around his neck, which he proceeds to fight with."Stupid... Dumb... Neck Trap!" He said in frustration.
"I knew you's look better with a tie." Sun stops his struggling and stares at Blake, who was wearing a short, purple, asymmetrical, halter neck dress that is split up the right side and has a black collar. Translucent black mesh covers her shoulders, decolletage and back, and decorative black swirls cover the left side of the dress and continue up the left strap. The outfit is completed with black pumps, and she wears a teal bow in her hair, holding it in the style of a pony-tail. Blake steps forward and takes Sun by the arm.
"Sooo... Does this mean we're going... together?" The Monkey Faunus asked, which gave Blake, in return, a smile.
"Yes it does." She replied, as the two entered the dance.
Inside the ballroom, the amazing decorations done by Team RRWBY and Team JOKR got attention by all the students. The Crimson Bands of Cyttorak streamers are hung through glass chandeliers, pink and blue balloons are everywhere, and students in dark suits and bright dresses are stepping with each other to the music between the white-clothed tables. Sonic, Tails, Knuckles and Ryūko were up on stage playing the music. Sonic on the mic, Knuckles on the Bass, Ryūko on the electric Guitar, and Tails on the drums. Blake is spun around by Yang before they curtsey to one another, and Sun comes up and takes his date's hands as Yang gestures for him to do so. She goes to hang with Ruby, Asta and Weiss in the back of the room, watching Blake laugh and enjoy herself before smiling at her team. "I told you Blonde-Berry would make her come." She said.
"Mission Accomplished." Weiss replied.
"Soooo... What do we do now?" Ruby asked, as Asta took her by the hands.
"We Have Fun!" Asta replied, as the two headed onto the floor, with Weiss and Neptune following suit. Yang Looked on at her teammate and her sister, and couldn't help but smile at the fun they're having. At that moment, Yang's scroll vibrated. She took it out, and opened it to see a text from Ryan.
'Running a little late, had to find something to wear. Go on without me!" The text read. Yang put her scroll away, as she looked on at the people comming in. First it was Jotaro with Litchi Faye-Ling. Then Yu Narukami with Yukiko Amagi, Detective Shirogane with Sage, Ragna and Noel, and finally, Team JNPR entered. Jaune and Ren were both wearing a black suit with dark red bow tie and light-gray vest. Pyrrha was wearing a turtleneck sleeveless red dress with her back exposed. And Nora was wearing a pink strapless dress with a white skirt. Notably, the seam joining the two sections tapers to a point, which gives the top part of her dress a resemblance to a pink heart-shape. Yang couldn't help but wonder where her date was, as Professor Ozpin and Team FNTS approached her.
"Not enjoying yourself, Miss Xiao Long?" He asked.
"No, I am," Yang replied, "Just... Waiting for Ryan."
"He's running Fashionably Late," Nicole told her, "He'll be here."
"By the way," Taryn said, "I Love what you and the others did to the decorations."
"Thanks." Yang replied.
"It's not every day that friends are able to come together like this." Ozpin said, "Time has a way of testing our bonds, but it's nights like these that can help keep them stronger than ever. Nights like these are ones we'll never forget."
"He's Right, Yang," Siobhan said, "Back when Ryan was in High School, He asked out a friend, but got heartbroken the next day."
"Ouch," Yang said, "What happened then?"
"He still went to his High School Homecoming," Siobhan replied, "And his date was there before him. So... They danced... And Ryan never forgot that night."
"I'm pretty sure he won't forget this one." Yang replied. And It was at that moment that the doors flew open.
"AAAAAALRIGHTY THEN!" The music stopped, as everyone looked over to see Ryan, Now wearing a white-lined white suit with long white pants and white shoes. His accessories included a red necktie, his Sir Francis Drake Ring, a pair of 500,000,000 dollar custom made designer shades, and a Hanafura earing in the style of Tanjiro's Kimono. He had the back of his hair swept back, and the front in the style of a pompador, "NOW THIS!" He continued, as he walked in, "Is how we throw a party... And how we do it Right!"
"Ugh!" Siobhan groaned, rolling her eyes.
"Something Wrong, Siobhan?" Weiss asked.
"That's My brother for you..." Siobhan continued, "Crashing the party, so he can start it up again."
"I HEARD THAT!" Ryan shouted, taking off his shades, and walked into the crowd, "Hey Sonic! Play us something!"
"You Got it, Ry!" Sonic replied through the microphone, "Here's a song from our world that I think you guys might Enjoy."
(Cues: Kryptonite. By 3 Doors Down. (448 hz version)
Ryūko started playing the intro solo to the song on her guitar, as Tails followed in after she repeated the song's intro solo a second time.
"Well, I took a walk around the world, to ease my troubled mind" Sonic began, "I left my body lying somewhere in the sands of time. But I watched the world, float to the dark side of the moon. I feel there's nothing I can do... yeah!"
"Is this another one of your Aerosmith songs, Ry-Guy?" Yang asked.
"Nope," Ryan replied, "Kryptonite by 3 doors down... It's actually one of my favorite songs... But enough about that," Ryan extended his hand to Yang, "May I have this dance?" He asked, as Yang gently gave Ryan her hand as a response, as the two hitted the floor.
"I watched the world float to the dark side of the moon," Sonic continued, as many of the students started tapping their toes to the beat, "After all I knew, it had to be something to do with you I really don't mind what happens now and then As long as you'll be my friend at the end!" Sonic grabbed the mic, and started moving with it, "If I go crazy, then will you still call me Superman? If I'm alive and well, will you be there, and holding my hand? I'll keep you by my side, with my superhuman, might, Kryptonite!" Ryan took to the center floor, as he did a series of tricks and flips, and the worm, catching the eyes of many, as he finished it off with a headspin, and landing on his feet.
"You called me strong, you called me weak, But still your secrets, I will keep," Sonic continued, "You took for granted, all the times, I never let you down. You stumbled in, and bumped your head, If not for me, then you'd be dead. I picked you up, and put you, back on solid ground, Again! If I go crazy, then will you still call me Superman? If I'm alive and well, will you be there, and holding my hand? I'll keep you by my side, with my superhuman, might, Kryptonite!" Ryūko took to center stage, as she started playing the solo to the song, earning a series of claps from the audiance in attendance.
"If I go crazy, then will you still call me Superman?" Sonic continued,"If I'm alive and well, will you be there, holding my hand? I'll keep you by my side with my superhuman might Kryptonite... YEAH!" Ryūko jumped into the air, and landed on her knees, doing a Rockstar powerslide, and wailed away on her guitar like a champ,"If I go crazy, then will you still call me Superman?" Sonic continued, "If I'm alive and well, will you be there, and holding my hand? I'll keep you by my side, with my superhuman, might, Kryptonite!" Tails banged away at the drums, doing a solo, as Ryūko played the solo from before, ending the song.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa!" Sonic finished off singing, "Whoa, whoa, whoa! Whoa, whoa, whoa!" As the song ended, the crowd erupted in cheers, claps, and whistles, "Thank you," Sonic replied, "This was something from our world, and, Uh... We thought, what the heck, and you guys liked it..." Sonic looked around the crowd, and stared at Ryan, "But, Uh... We would be rude if we said that we would have one of our friends come up, and sing us a song, so, Ryan, Why don't you get your ass up here!?"
"OH-NO, I don't sing for free," Ryan replied waving his hands, as many members of the crowd wanted him to sing.
"Aw, Come on Ryan," Makoto said, "Just one, For Us?"
"YEAH, Please Ryan-Kun!?" Chie asked.
"Yeah, Come on Ryan!" Josuke said, as many members of the crowd started clapping, and chanting his name. After a moment, Ryan got his answer.
"Well... If you insist?" He replied, as he started walking on stage, and picked up a key-tar. He slinged it around himself, and walked up to the mic, "Here's a song, By a Gay guy..." He said, as he chuckled a little, "Just kidding, He's not Gay... I got the joke from a TV Show that's gone downhill.
(Cues: Never Gonna Give You Up. By: Rick Astley.)
Ryan Started playing a riff on the Key-tar, as Tails joined in with a few beats. The lights started to flash in a pattern, as the dance floor got down to the beat.
"We're no strangers to Love!" Ryan began singing, and Damn' did he have the voice of an angel, "You know the Rules, and So Do I! A Full commitment's what I'm, Thinking of. You wouldn't get this from, Any, Other, Guy! I, Just wanna tell you how I'm feeling! Gotta make you, Understand! Never Gonna Give, You, Up! Never Gonna Let, you, down! Never gonna run round, and, desert you! Never gonna make, You, Cry! Never gonna Say, Goodbye! Never gonna tell a lie, and Hurt you!"
"WOW!" Yang said from the crowd, "He really does have the voice of an angel!"
"He's been singing since he was nine," Nicole replied, "And he hasn't stopped till this day."
"It's kinda annoying!" Siobhan said, earning a nudge from Blake.
"Let him have his moment." She said, as Sun approached her.
"May I?" He asked, extending out his hand.
"You May." Blake replied, taking Suns hand, as the two danced.
"We've known each other, For so Long," Ryan continued to sing, as he grabbed the Microphone, and started dancing with it, Just Like Steven Tyler from Aerosmith, "Your heart's been aching, but, you're too shy, to say it! Inside we both know what's been, going on? We know the game, and we're, gonna Play It!" Ryan leaned over to his right as low as he could, "And, If you ask me how I'm Feeling? Don't tell me you're too, Blind to see?"
"Man, he's good!" Jaune said.
"I've never seen anyone dance like that before?" Pyrrha replied.
"You can thank Aerosmith for that." Jin told them, "Ever since he started listening to them, he can't get them out of his head, or Steven's dance moves."
"Still... It's impressive." Pyrrha replied.
"Well, do you wanna stand there and look," Jaune said, extending his hand to Pyrrha, "Or do you wanna dance?" Pyrrha replied by offering her own hand to Jaune.
"I would love to dance," She replied, as Jaune pulls her to him and sweeps her away, "Oh!" Nora looks on at the two as she smiles.
"Ren!" She said, flailing excitedly, "This... Is... Happening!"
"Wait... What 'is happening'?" Ren asked, as Nora grabs Ren and drags him out onto the dance floor with Pyrrha and Jaune. JNPR performs a short but elaborately choreographed dance, culminating with Jaune spinning Pyrrha.
"Never Gonna Give, You, Up! Never Gonna Let, you, down! Never gonna run round, and, desert you!" Ryan continued to sing, as most students pulled out their scrolls, and started either taking photos, or recording him,"Never gonna make, You, Cry! Never gonna Say, Goodbye! Never gonna tell a lie, and Hurt you! Never Gonna Give, You, Up! Never Gonna Let, you, down! Never gonna run round, and, desert you! Never gonna make, You, Cry! Never gonna Say, Goodbye! Never gonna tell a lie, and Hurt you!" As he continued to sing, one of the students pulled out his scroll and dialed a number.
"CASEY!" He shouted into his scroll, "CASEY, IT'S ALI!"
"Who?" Casey said from the other end.
"YOUR COUSIN, ALI LEE WILLIAMS!" Ali Replied, "YOU KNOW THAT RETRO TECHNO SOUNDING MUSIC THAT YOU'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR!?"
"Yeah, What About it?" Casey said from the other end.
"WELL LISTEN TO THIS!" Ali replied, as he held his scroll out, so Casey can hear.
"Never gonna give, Never gonna Give!" Ryan continued, as he sood next to Ryūko, who leaned into the microphone.
"Give You Up!" She sang, as Ryan moved the microphone stand back and forwth between his hands.
"Never Gonna Give, Never Gonna Give!" He sang, moving the mic back to Ryūko.
"Give You Up!" She sang, as Ryan walked back to the center stage.
"We've known each other, For so Long," Ryan continued to sing, "Your heart's been aching, but, you're too shy, to say it! Inside we both know what's been, going on? We know the game, and we're, gonna Play It!" Ryan got on his knees, as the front of the crowd, mostly the women, reched their hands out for him, as Ryan gave them high fives, all around, "I, Just wanna tell you how I'm feeling! Gotta make you, Understand! Never Gonna Give, You, Up! Never Gonna Let, you, down! Never gonna run round, and, desert you! Never gonna make, You, Cry! Never gonna Say, Goodbye! Never gonna tell a lie, and Hurt you! Never Gonna Give, You, Up! Never Gonna Let, you, down! Never gonna run round, and, desert you! Never gonna make, You, Cry! Never gonna Say, Goodbye! Never gonna tell a lie, and Hurt you! Never Gonna Give, You, Up! Never Gonna Let, you, down! Never gonna run round, and, desert you! Never gonna make, You, Cry! Never gonna Say, Goodbye! Never gonna tell a lie, and Hurt you!" As the song ended, an eruption of cheers and applause can be heard from the crowd, showing their appreciation to The King Grimm Reaper, and his amazing singing and Dancing.
"Thank You!" Ryan said, as he walked off the stage, like Elvis leaving his many concerts. Before he got back to the dance floor, Yang Pulled him to the side, "Yeah, Yang?" He asked.
"Come On!" She replied, as the Two left the building.
"WHA- Where are we going, Dance is that way!" Ryan replied in confusion.
"There's something that I want to show you!" Yang replied, as they moved farther and farther away from the Dance Hall.
(Back Inside)
"I had no Idea you were a Dancer, Jaune!" Pyrrha said to her Leader.
"Hehe, Yeah," Jaune replied nervously, scratching the back of his head, "Well, these things tend to happen when you grow up with seven sisters.
"Alright!" Sonic said into the mic, "Now... I think we reached a point into this dance as to where we move a little slow... Ugh, Just saying it just makes me wanna puke, because... Heh, Back in NE, I'm the fastest thing Alive... So, Uh, we're gonna do one more song, and we'll have Mr. Ryan Connell come back up here and sing for us!" As the spotlight turned on, it started moving around to find Ryan, but he was nowhere to be found, "Uh..." Sonic said, "Oookay... If this is a Joke, Ryan... It isn't funny?" The spotlight continued to search for Ryan, but failed.
"Where did he go?" Nicole asked, as many students started to murmur among themselves.
"He'd never miss an opportunity like this?" Bullet said.
"Where is he?" Asta said.
"I'll take his Place," A familiar voice said, as the spotlight was set on a young man with a well-built physique, his physical complexion somewhat reminiscent to that of a gorilla (or perhaps even a caveman). He sports a 5 o'clock beard, was wearing Nashville Jeans, all being held up by a Ashby Dagur balt, Strapped Up black shoes, and a white lab coat.
"X-PO?" Sonic asked, as The Robot, now in a new Hologram form, walked up to the stage.
"I'll take his place," X-PO Replied, "Besides... I think this is a song that everybody will Love... Alright, everyone find their date, and get ready."
(Cues: Earth Angel (Will you be Mine?). By: Marvin Berry and The Starlighters)
The enlightening mood got things settled in the dance hall, as everyone partnered up with their dates, as some slow dancing music began to play.
"Earth Angel, Earth Angel." X-PO began to sing, as everyone either started Slow dancing, or waltzing, "Will You Be Mine? My Darling Dear, Love You, all the time. I'm just a fool... A fool in love, with you." X-PO looked on at a paticular pair, knowing that this was the moment. "Earth Angel, Earth Angel. The one I adore," He continued to sing, "Love you forever, and Ever more. I'm Just a fool... A Fool in love, with you."
"Man... I don't know who that guy is?" Jaune said, "But he's good."
"That's X-PO," Ragna replied, "He's a Robot."
"That's just one of his Holographic Skins that he's wearing," Noel added, "But the one thing that never changes is his Lab Coat... He never gets rid of it."
"Really?" Pyrrha asks, earning a nod from the two, as she and Jaune continued to slow dance, but not before Jaune slightly dips her, and calmly pulls her back up.
"I fell for you, and I knew, The vision of your love, loveliness..." X-PO continued to sing, "I hope, and I pray, That someday... I'll be the vision, of your hap-happiness? Earth Angel, Earth Angel. Please, be mine? My darling dear, love you all the time. I'm Just a fool... A fool in love, With you."
"Hey, Pyrrha..." Jaune said.
"Yes?" She replied.
"There's... Something that I need to get off my chest?" Jaune replied, looking into her eyes.
"What is it?" Pyrrha replied.
"Well... When the fall of Beacon comes..." Jaune began, "And... If we don't make it-"
"Jaune." Pyrrha inturrupted, "Please... I'll survive... I have to..."
"Yeah, But..." Jaune continued, "If we don't make it... There's something that I have to tell you." Pyrrha began to show a little red on her face when he said that.
"I fell for you, and I knew," X-PO Continued to sing, looking on at Jaune and Pyrrha, "The vision of your love, loveliness..."
"What?" She asked.
"Well... Since we first formed," Jaune began, "I... Felt like we had something special going on... and... I never got the chance to say this but... I... Think I'm in Love with you?" Pyrrha's eyes went wide when she heard what Jaune had to say, as she blushed, and leaned into him.
"Oh, Jaune," She replied softly, as she looked back at him, "I love you, too."
"I hope, and I pray, That someday..." X-PO continued to sing, "I'll be the vision. The Vision of your happiness, WHOA, WHOA-WHOA! Earth Angel, Earth Angel. Please, be mine?"
Both Jaune and Pyrrha blushed and smile at each other.
"My darling dear, love you all the time. I'm Just a fool..." X-PO finished off, as he looked at Jaune and Pyrrha, as they leaned into each other, and finally kiss. "A fool in love... With you." As the song ended, everyone in the crowd stopped dancing, as the gave a round of applause for X-PO, Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, and Ryūko, who smiled and waved at their appreciation. "Thank You!" They replied, as they took a bow. Ruby showed more appreciation, by giving them a whistle, and a couple of laughs of joy. She then lookes over at what Ren, Nora, and Weiss were looking at, as she let out a small peep to see Jaune and Pyrrha still kissing, with Pyrrha holding her leg up. But They weren't the only ones, Blake and Sun were kissing, too. Jaune and Pyrrah letted themselves out of their long kiss, and looked at the four.
"Uhh... Did we miss anything?" Jaune asked, as he and Pyrrha looked over to see Blake and Sun, still in their kiss. After a while, the two faunus' letted themselves out of their kiss.
"What?" Blake asked, fixing her hair.
A/N: Wow... That was... amazing... that ending... I'm sorry this took so long. My Chromebook is very old, and shuts off at the worst of times, but, I managed to get this done. And, yes, I know the two kisses don't come until volume 3, for Jaune and Pyrrha, and volume 6, for Blake and Sun, but like I said, This is My story, and I am only doing this for fun, so please don't criticise about it negatively. It's really good, I swear. Anyway. I'll be back tomorrow with some more, as for right now... I need a nap.
