Ok I've been reading the Beacon civil war by Coeur Al' Aran again and it got me thinking about if I had been there messing with the multiverse the whole time so this is a one-shot story and I will continue with more one-shots in time
I will gladly remove this chapter if the person who originally wrote the Beacon civil war or any who participated in helping it become the amazing story it is asks me too
Alright then, real quick I'm gonna to say that teams RWBY and JNPR are aware of my semblance but not to the extent I do
all they know is I can summon anything that I can think of with the cost of using it being my aura that comes back after I dismiss it at a lower value that what it originally was

What if?- Ruby's prisoner exchange and the battle at The Great Wall of Jaunehalla
"Talking"
"Thinking/reading"
"Shouting"
"Radio"
Location: Remnant, Vale, Beacon academy, gardens
Date: Wednesday, 8th, September, 2021
Time: 1400 VST
I'll admit, Jaune actually getting food out of a prisoner exchange is a good idea. we need aura to defend and fight against the girls and food right now is the only true equalizer, even more so for me whose aura was used to first fortify the defenses by using my semblance on each wall of "The Great wall of Jaunehalla" further bolstering its structural integrity and defenses
if things go south for the prisoner exchange I'm also the muscle as Jaune had another brilliant idea concerning my semblance
Each side was allowed one guard 50 paces away from the meeting point of the exchange, I was selected for my semblance which can counter almost anything the girls could throw at me… unless they all charge for me to take me out before running after the rest of the men including the fabled "king of the north" who I know from the start was just taking pot shots in the dark but hitting perfect bullseyes
nevertheless
Jaune and I walked up to our predetermined spots and stopped with Ruby walking behind him on his left and Crescent rose in his right hand
As we stopped and waited for the other side of the negotiations to show up I heard Ruby and Jaune conversing
"Chin up Jaune! Do you really think my sister would mess this up by trying to double cross you? And why is Otto standing so far away?" Ruby asked innocently
At that Jaune looked over at me and just said "He's at 50 paces in what he'll be fighting in if your sister does double cross us." Jaune answered shooting me a subtle nod as he did
I grinned when he did and as Yang the chosen girl negotiator and her guard Nora started walking out into the light I held out my arms and flashed momentarily with it receding again to show me wearing a pilot's suit from Titanfall 2, causing Yang and Nora to quickly stop in their tracks at my sudden change in appearance
over the schools PA system everyone could hear a female voice say
"Standby for Titanfall"
A few seconds later the glass ceiling broke, I mentally winced at the damage Goodwitch will no doubt make me pay for afterwards but I could care less at the moment as a ball of steel impacted just behind me and unfurled itself into a titan, it's pilot hatch opening allowing me to use the suits built in thrusters to rocket back right into the pilot's seat, the hatch closing a second later and the titan announcing in a synthetic imitation of my voice
"Legion class heavy titan Ulysses, online"
Yang, Nora, and Ruby just stared quietly in shock at my titan before I interrupted with
"Are we gonna do this exchange or not?" With my voice amplified over the whole area everyone heard me as I brought Ulysses' custom 30mm gau/18 minigun (loaded with a shitton of rubber bullets) to a parade rest, my left hand free to grab the other forward grip on the weapon should the need arise
That snapped them out of their stupor and Yang walked up to Jaune with Nora going to the opposite side of me and staying at a regular humans 50 paces away
Jaune started off by motioning Ruby to stand in front of him, Yang turned and brought the food cart over bringing it to the middle before backing away as previously discussed
Jaune and Ruby then walked to the middle, Jaune tossed Yang Crescent Rose and grabbed the cart slowly bringing it towards our side while Ruby walked over to Yang, using the camera on the titan I could see Nora tense with Yang grabbing Ruby as soon as she could reach her and running to the other side of the gardens which I guess is the signal because no sooner did Nora try and rush directly to Jaune with her warhammer
But I wasn't going to just let her
The titan easily crossed the 50 paces set for it just as Nora was about to engage with Jaune, I intercepted her by literally body checking her with a titan and tossing her over to her side…
Right where a literal wave of woman forces had just appeared
I promptly raised my minigun and started a "tactical retreat" (read firing blindly into the horde and running) swinging Jaune over my shoulder with the food cart and booking it when I got close enough to him
As we ran over the first wall I dismissed the titan and spawned a stealth boy while no one was looking and disappeared to watch the resulting carnage on the wall seeing no real reason to interfere as the rest of the men took up arms I... spawned for a lack of a better term for them
Every defender on the wall was equipped with a training spec MA5B assault rifle only able to shoot specialized rubber bullets with small amounts of dust in each projectile to produce an effect when the rubber bullet connects with aura of a hostile huntsman/huntress
I talked with Ozpin about implementing these into the curriculum of the academy to allow a less lethal option when in training or against a rogue hunter and he agreed seeing as I was the manufacturer of the bullets essentially for now until they got a production que online he wanted to test them in the war game and I obliged
I actually went more overboard than what was needed in all honesty
The night before the exchange I spawned a metric shitton of Halo marine combat BDU's as well as the needed ammo to equip every arc-hive worker with spare 5 magazines with (absolutely needed) shouts of
"You get a MA5B!
And you get a MA5B!
EVERYBODY GETS AN MA5B!"
The defenders of the walls were affectionately called arc-hive workers based on the honeycomb look my reinforcements on the walls made with the needed ladders and platforms to insure a steady supply of ammo and rations and in case the wall is overrun an efficient emergency escape allowing all the workers to man the next wall with a force even bigger than at the first wall
"Sun is a goddamn genius!" I cheered mentally in my mind as the women's forces started the treacherous climb up the wall
With the ladders that allowed the rest of the group up in the first place retracted and me still cloaked on the battlefield the girls were forced to use the pre-planned handholds I left on the outside face of each wall so that they could not use any weapon needing all their limbs even just to climb it
Thank God Pyrrha's not here though or else she could just bring the walls down by force as I couldn't make it out of plastic without sacrificing the walls durability, coupled with the fact these walls were a rush job not allowing me to make it thicker anyways I would be perfectly happy if it held out for a few seconds against Pyrrha
But I think the real test will be Nora as she came back into the fight with a grin that made me shiver as she gazed over my cloaked form, thankfully not noticing me before rushing the wall and hitting it with her warhammer using so much force every worker on the wall lost their balance for a second with the wall's frame vibrating from the hit
As she readied for a second hit and not wanting to test my work anymore I quickly gained her attention by flashing something into existence behind my back and decloaking to show I was wearing Danse's BoS II t-60 power armor
At my appearance her grin deepend and she came swinging at me with a warcry worthy of her Norse heritage
When the hammer connected though I simply phased out of existence leaving Nora's face with an annoyed and confused expression
That quickly turned to surprise as I showed up behind her after flashing back into existence like a promethean knight and bringing my hand from behind my back to reveal
A simple hardcover book with a picture on the front of Ren and Nora sleeping against each other under a tree
As she blushed a deep red muttering "not together-together." I simply held out the book to her
"This is a book containing a collection of moments between you and a certain Lie Ren. It's definitely rated M though." I said her eyes growing as wide as saucers at the information and a little blood dripping from her nose, her warhammer still held but with a soft enough grip that I thought Nora might actually drop her warhammer but I continued
"If you want this, all you have to do is stop trying to bust down my damn wall and return to the cafeteria." I bargained really not wanting to see my creation ground to dust just as I finished it
At my offer she excitedly holstered her hammer to the amazement of everyone with a cry of "All forces, withdraw!" promptly snatching the book out of my hands before dashing as fast as Ruby (if that's even possible) back to the cafeteria leaving the rest of the female forces confused for a second before they to disengaged to the cheers of the defenders
From that day on I was known as "The Lords Negotiator" in Jaunehalla, and once the news came back in the form of Nora almost breaking in the cafeteria doors "The Northern Wizard" to the woman forces by "casting" a spell that made me vanish and later convincing Nora Valkyrie to abandon her leg breaking crusade
I would also like to add that I think the book was stolen by Blake based on the messages I got from her earlier begging me to make her a book like that… multiple times... within an hour...
I was later questioned by the other generals of Jaunehalla while in the war room and simply replied
"Really I'm hoping that'll give Nora the kick in the pants needed to actually get you two together." I explained looking at Ren, and ignoring the various calls of "you sly dog!" by the others I continued
"It was nothing true though, I just thought up a whole bunch of different scenarios in my head and like a cheetah on cocaine copied them into a book. Hoping the thought of such pictures would make her take the bait, Which she did. It's nothing more than a fantasy book." I explained letting Ren breathe easy when Jaune spoke up
"Still can't believe you thought of that." He said shaking his head at the absurdity of it
At that I couldn't keep the laughter in my belly anymore and started clutching my sides from the pain, adding in between chuckles while everyone around the war table laughed as well
"Well I -heh heh heh- just remembered all the interactions I've seen -heh heh heh- between Ren and Nora when someone asks if they're together." I said much to Ren's chargin and the others continued amusement
"But with that all done, can we continue to plan for the battle to end it all?" I asked getting everyone back on topic and hopefully getting us closer to the end of this damn civil war…
So how'd y'all like it? Lemme know
Just to reassure y'all I already got chpt 3 for the main story down pat, just working out a few issues in my writing. This is my way of giving you guys something in-between each chapter to explore the many branches of the multiverse
Ok, Otto signing off!
