"Mink this is ridiculous!" Jaune yelled as the daemon nodded sagely. Her bright pink eyes shining in the anti-light of the chamber they used for their meetings as she grinned in her oddly passionate but uncaring fashion.
"Hey, I never said it would be fair, just you know."
The daemon clarified as the mortal glared as Jaune ground his teeth.

"I know that but this is ridiculous! I have three! Not one! Not two! But three! Crisis that I can not do anything to counter effectively! I just learned that my consent is nonexistent-
"Unless you do get a code."
"Unless I get a code which I lost!"
"Oh yeah. Remember that? You put up one helluva fight! If I do say so myself. And I do."

"Mink!"
"Why are you yelling at me!? What makes you think I can help you?"

"You are the one who put me in this damn mess! So you are the one most able to fix it for me? Arent' you!?" Jaune asked as the demon smiled in her unnervingly off-kilter manner at him as she gave him a light giggle.

"Correction! You put you into this mess! Don't blame me! You signed the contract-
"You tricked me!" Jaune shouted as the demon looked like she had been struck.
"Did not! You signed this of your own free will and with full! Full knowledge of what you were getting into! So don't get blaming me that shit's gone wrong! And you are looking at a possible Game over before you finished the first quest!"

"Mink! This is too much! How can I get out of this!?" Jaune asked as the thing smiled at him. Stretching her face out to inhuman proportions and smiling in a way that made Jaune's hairs stand on edge.
"Well! You need to fix that your self! Remeber that the Gamer is unfair! But is never! Ever! Impossible! Sure things look bad! But there is still a way out of this! If you can see it for yourself that is.' Mink said as Jaune began to panic. His chest shook and heaved as he felt an incredible tightness well up inside of him. It was like a metal wrench was on his chest as he felt his blood boil and his pulse quicken as all hope seemed to leave him as-
"Don't panic. Think about this. It's like it said, things are bad but this is not a game over. Use your head. You can do this, just think." Jaune's inner voice said as he took a deep breath and calmed his breathing. As he steadied his chaotic rough haggard breathing. As his inner voice spoke to him, as he took a deep breath silencing all transgressing and unneeded thoughts in his head as he sat down Indian style putting his hands together and started to think-
"Huh? Whatca doing meat bag? You meditating or something?" Mink asked as her human began to sit down on the floor that was not a floor, resting his ass that was an ass. Hehe. On the shining glowing white ground as he began to squint his face in concentration as-
"Oh? Determination? Is that Incredulity that I am tasting? Why so mad meat-
"Quiet.' Jaune said simply not opening his eyes or giving Mink any, emotional reaction besides a minor fleeting bit of irritation as he meditated on the floor that was not a floor. "Um excuse me-
"Quiet," Jaune said again not opening his eyes as he resited on the floor as Mink began to growl.

"You did not just tell me to-
"Yes, I did. I told you to be quiet so be quiet." Jaune replied curtly not giving Mink a bit! Of emotions besides-
"Pity!? Are you really pitying me?! Listen-
"What part of quiet are you not hearing?"
Jaune asked as Mink's chocolate skin was suddenly bumped up by a thick red vein and-
"I got it!" Jaune said suddenly as he clapped his hands together as Mink growled.
"You got what Meatbag? It better be a better attitude or else you-
"Mink. I am me right?"
Jaune asked the daemon with an honestly curious look as the demon froze as her previously angry glare left for a confused one as she stopped.
"What do you mean I am me?"
"I mean, besides the obvious difference between me and him, is the Jaune here for all intents and purposes me?" Jaune asked as the demon lost her anger and nodded briefly.
"For all intents and purposes yes. He's you."
"Minus the child abuse?"
"Minus that and ther running away part yeah. Why?"

"Because if so I have a plan," Jaune said as a grin came over his face, as he showed Mink his pearly white teeth flashing his canines to her as-
New Main quest added!
Jaune's screen flashed up as Mink gagged.
"What?! What are you doing-
New main quest added! Quest name, Gather the witnesses! 0% complete

Popped up as Mink blinked twice at it before she begna to smile.
"So... It looks like you are finally playing smart and not hard?" Mink asked as a slow nod came over her face as Jaune grinned.
"Sure am, I got to admit! You almost had me, Mink! I was there! Right about to break! But, after taking a second to calmly and rationally think about it. While my situation might seem! Like it's hopeless in reality I've never been in a better position in the entire gamer!"

Jaune said pumping his fits as Mink began to smile wickedly.

"Really? Do go on Jaune? I'm curious to see what took you from the brink to the top! Tell me! What's your big plan?" Mink asked as Jaune slid his fingers across the screen as Jaune pulled up his mission screens as a manic grin came over his face as his fingers began to fly across the screen. "Mink tell me, can I prioritize a mission? Like can I make multiple but have only! One be the main focus of the entire tree?"
Jaune asked his finger flew across the input keyboard as Mink's girn only doubled as she tasted, Control. Power and best! Of all Hope. Form the boy as she licked her lips.
"Well not usually, all missions are given equal importance so normally you can't prioritize them but! I might be able to make an exception if you give me a good enough reason that is!" Mink said letting her long serpentine tongue flickered out as Jaune smiled.
"Good. Because here's the plan." Jaune said as he began to finally put in his first missions as Minks eyes began to raise in equal parts shock and surprise, as she read the first mission from the boy.

Mission one. Act extremely more submissive towards Pyrra. Go along with almost, whatever! She suggests so long as you do not believe your life or dignity is in danger.

"Act more submissive? Meat bag you feeling ok?" Mink asked with a slight, edge of concern as she began to wonder if the Gamer had been affecting Jaune negatively and if his mind was starting to get. Not that she cared but-
"Nope! I want him to act more submissive to her! He needs! To let Pyrrha take the reins and not! Question her in the relationship."

"Jaune?! Are you feeling ok? Have you hit your head on something?"
Mink asked a nervous tone in her voice as Jaune's manic smile only grew in proportions.
"Nope! Not at all! I'm perfectly sane!" Jaune said as Mink frowned.
"Jaune. She's abusive! She doesn't like your voice, she barely! And I do mean barely! Tolerates your opinions! She takes your dreams, your entire reason! For existance with a grain of salt at best! And she got pissed off when you said you would need to act with consent!" "That's why I need to act more submissive to her!" Jaune said as Mink blinked owlishly at Jaune now fully, understanding that Jaune had lost his mind and-
"Wait. Hold up. How the hell is this going to work. I'm confused, enlighten me! If you will, my decaying friend." Mink said as Jaune bowed? To her as she began to grin.
"Simple. It's like this, I'm going to have me act more submissive to Pyrrha to deal with her."

"I don't want to be that! Interdimensional daemon but when you try appeasement it almost never works and-
"Oh, I'm not trying to appease her! I'm going to trap her!" Jaune said as Mink tasted power and control combined in a wonderful! Confluence of smugness as she licked her lips and shivered.
"Go on...
"Simple! Watch."
Jaune said as he put two more missions on the screen. Mission two. Get much, close to Velvet and Coco, while making bridges with Ruby, Weiss, and Yang. Mission three. Become much closer to Blake, and get both! Sets of girl to become much closer to you.
"Don't you see!?"
"No. I actually don't, how is this going to trap Pyrrha?"
"Simple Mink. Pyrrha wants to be in a BDSM relationship. The other me does not want to be in it. Pyrrha is behaving abusively and unhealthy. And any! And I do mean any relationship especially! One's like the type she's pinning after are based on trust and respect! Something she is not! Willing or able to do well, so I must act submissively towards her!"

"Becuase... I'm assuming you have a reason for doing this damn suicide mission besides ah fuck it?"

"Easy, you see Pyrrha is abusive."
"I can see."
"Blake and Coco and the reso of the girls as far as I can tell are not abusive."
"I see go on."
"And! Coco said specifically! That she would protect me from other women! She said she would sort them out if they tried too much and I'm assuming Blake and the other girls will also act the same way!"
"So you are acting submissive towards Pyrrha because?"
"So she fails," Jaune said as a downright evil look came to his face as for a moment Mink believed she was in the presence of another of her own kind and not a mere mortal. As Jaune's grin only grew and grew as Mink gulped.
"Really...
"Yes! The plans simple, Pyrrha has no boundaries. And she wants to push mine! Blake and Coco won't do that! So! When I act more submissively towards Pyrrha, she's just going to push!"
"Ok...
"Then! When she pushes! And pushes! And since I can't! Say no she will eventually push too far!"
"And that's a good thing?"
"It's perfect! She'll push me too far and in the end, she will hopefully hurt him!"
"You want to be hurt!? Are you sure you are not a masochist?"

Mink asked now convinced Jaune had lost his last marbles not that he mad many of them to begin with as the boy began to nod rapidly to her. "Listen! Eventually, she pushes too far. She hurt's me. I tell Blake and or Coco. They! Sort her out, maybe even fight her. In the end, they either win! And I'm free or! They lose and Pyrrha wins. Either way she! Looks like the jerk, and other me will have a perfect reason to leave her!"

The mortal said smiling ear to ear as the demon nodded her head to him.
"So you want to give her the opportunity to fail. Let her abuse you so when she does! Eventually push you too far and hurts you, the other you will go seek help from your female friends. That will expose her for being the abusive person she is and will kick her out of a relationship with you?"
"Yes! Even better it will cement me with Coco, Velvet, and Blake or any other girl! This plan is foolproof! It either ends in Pyrrha going too far, ousting herself losing it all! Of her social status and making me the victim and-
"I get it. The ole give them enough rope-
"And they'll hang themselves with it," Jaune said with a truly demonic grin as Mink glared at him.
"So you are going to use the girls against the others?"
"Exactly. I thought that not being able to act with consent was terrible but now? It's my strongest asset, I have the other me act submissive and if! A girl goes too far Coco, Blake or Velvet will sort them out, and if I'm lucky! The rest of the girls will help as well! Removing a potential dangerous harem member and keeping me safe in the process."
"Pretty clever! I like it! Now, what else is there? After all of that, I'm thirsty for more!"
Mink said almost salivating as Jaune went back to his screen.

"What I'm doing next! Is where things get fun! You see Pyrrha is what I like to call an unpredictable variable. She will either sort herself out and become a loving and consensual harem member. Or! She oversteps herself and gets banned. Either way, she is an X factor that either needs to be controlled or expunged." Jaune said ina bone chilly manner that made Mink shiver.
"Dear god you taste good," Mink said drolling as Jaune sighed.

"It's just like Coco said. Most of these girls are good people. They don't want to hurt me but they are inexperienced and will make mistakes. I shouldn't be mad at them for that right? So I figured I can give them a chance and if it works out? He will have a loving harem." Jaune said taking a deep breath as he yawned.
"Going on. I need to fight smart. The Gamer is trying to work against me but! The very nature of itself allows me to see it's weakness!"
"And that would be?"
"The Gamer like you said is never impossible! No matter what it throws at me there is always an out! As long as I can stay calm, be rational and think! About it, I can win." Jaune said as he typed in his last mission.
Mission four. Survive.
Jaune typed in as Mink clapped her hands slowly.
"Good job meat bag! I'm glad you are thinking straight!"
"Me too. But I must ask you a question Mink?"
"Oh? And that is, you know I am honor bound to answer truthfully right?"
"Yes. I need to know do you care if I win the Gamer?"
"Do I care?"
"Do you want me to win?"
"I have no horse in that race! If you win? I win! If you lose? I win! Either way, I win."
"Good. So you do not mind if I win?"
"Well I would like to see you lose, I don't mind if you win no."
"So you are not trying to make me lose?"
"I won't make it easy for you."
"But you won't make it impossible?"
"For one no, that doesn't make sense, why would I do that? A game is no fun if you know the ending, on the other hand, I can't. I can only infect a minor changer on the Gamer, as a direct change and I can only do that once."
"A minor change?"
"I can inflict a minor change to any! Other players stats, not yours. But I can only do that once." Mink said as Jaune nodded.

"Ok. But I want to talk to you, Mink...

"Oh? And what does my questing mortal wish to know?"

"Do you hate me?"

"Jaune. I don't hate you. I have nothing against you personally."

"Then are you willing to make a deal?"

"Oh!? Another deal let me get out a contract-

"No not like that I want an agreement between the two of us," Jaune said as the demon put away the half summoned paper dismissing it in a burst of purple fire as she blinked owlishly.

"Go on... What agreement do you wish to work out?"

"Mink. You want emotions right? The stronger the better?"

'Yes. I eat them. So do a lot of your audience. Why?"

"I want to make an agreement unofficially! With you. I'll bring you nourishment I'll make the other me go emotional but! I want some help.'
"Help? Define help for me, so I know what I'm dealing with here."

"Simple. I'll make sure, he dose things that will feed you and make the Gamer more interesting for you in return you give me a bit of... wiggle room."

"Wiggle room?"

"I know that you can't stop me from winning and you don't mind if I win so how about this. You say I have fans? If you can give me some boons form my fans and if you do this I can feed you. Our relationship does not need to be hostile Mink. We can work together in a way that so that we both benefit. Doesn't that make sense?"

Jaune asked as Mink nodded her head as she rocked her chocolate skinned face up to shining her shiny purple eyes glaring at him like piercing daggers before she nodded.

"So you want us to be copasetic with one another eh?"

"Yes. I'm not benefiting from you screwing me but! You don't lose for me winning. Help me win and I'll bring you food."

"Hmmm... Bold. Risky. Innovative... I like it!"

"You do!?"

"Sure do. But be warned! I'll toss you a bone or to but! I'm going to have some fun with you in the process. You are nearing the end of the first quest and the gamer is going to start playing hardball with you so be warned!"
"Good. Becuase this is only the beginning. The Gamer want's to play hardball? Well, let's play hardball...


When Jaune woke up the next day it was with a sharp! Energy, as his rich cerulean blue eyes shot up as his body pulsed with a manic energy. As he extricated himself from Pyrrha death grip as he fled out of his bed as his mind went out into overdrive. "How could I overlook this!? It's so simple!" Jaune thought as he went into the bathroom. As he walked to the bathroom he took brief notice of his slightly changed room. Nora and Ren slept calmly in thier own beds. Nora slept as calm and as peacefully as her waking self-dressed in her pink sloth pajamas. Ren in his three times oversized green pajama pants and shirt with his triple ringed green nightcap tightly wrapped around his head.

As Jaune slunk past them he looked to his sleeping partner dress in her beautiful pink nightgown that made his heart thump! As her beautiful goddess like form slumbered. Over her on his bed hung his new assault rifle and pistol. The nongauss variants named Barry and El Diablo. The last one was Ruby already pissed that Jauen got his guns without her had demanded Jaune name his pistol with her advice. As now Barry and El Diablo hung over his bed where a small brown shelf was now nailed in the wall. This shelf carried all of his special ammo that Zach had given him. All his armor piercing, anti-personnel, incendiary, shock and freezing rounds sat lazily over his bed, and his explosives the illegal ones at least laid under it in his bag. As he slinked into the bathroom as he looked into the mirror hands shaking and-

"So we doing it?"
His reflection asked as Jaune nodded.
"Sure are."
"Great. Who are we picking?"
"Who do you think? We have two options." Jaune said as he began to brush his teeth as his reflection sighed as it nodded.
"Sure, sure. Lets jsut pic smart ok?"
"You know it," Jaune said as he slid off his clothes stepping into the shower as his plan began.


Jaune was not what you might call a stealthy individual. Not that he was just bumbling around like some kind of ogre he was far to lithe for that but whenever Jaune was trying to hide something it was clearly evident to all who were around him. As all of his friends watched the short boy squinting over his morning food, a steaming plate of bacon and toast that Ren had spent the last few minutes trying to swipe a slice only to gain a quick whap! Of a hand form, Jaune followed by a firm glare form Nora that made him shrink away into his own corner of the table and-
"Blake." Jaune finally said breaking the silence as the cat girl shot up.
"Yes!?" The cat faunus said blushing slightly her cat ears flickering under her bow as she nearly spit up her orange juice her mind racing a hundred words per second wondering why the hell her crush and potential mate? Called her name and-
"Blake I need you."
Shock.
Fear. Panic. Confusion.
All emanated from the table as all the girl's mouths dropped as Blake looked ready to teleport away and-
"You need me?! For what-
"I need you to do me a favor. This is important." Jaune said in his most serious tone as Blake's blush left her face as she gained a severe look in her face the former blush disappearing in a moment as she stood up firmly and nodded.
"What do you need?" Blake asked as-
"Jaune, whatever favor you would ask of Blake. I am quite confident that I can do equally as well if not better.' Pyrrha said with a sharp tone as she enunciated the words Blake and better as the Spartan warrior glared at the faunus girl who returns her baleful glare with a withering one of her own as Blake clammy walked over to Jaune. Her amber eyes never leaving Pyrrha as she practically growled at her. The faunus walking with the preternatural grace her kind was known for as she walked straight past Pyrrha to Jaune as she turned to face her crush as her face brightened to the tenth degree. Puttin on a far to warm smile to irk Pyrrha and-
"Blake I need your assistance."
Jaune said standing up and dropping to one knee as-
PANIC.
Pure panic came from every girl beside Nora as it looked like Jaune was proposing!? To Blake and-
"Jaune?! W-
"Balke Belladonna. I Jaune Vesperax have a favor to ask you."
"Favor? What kind of favor-
"My mom liked to beat me as a child," Jaune said as Blakes' mouth clenched up faster than a cat avoiding the rain as her face became stony as Jaune went on...


"Well on the one hand. We just told our entire backstory. On the other hand! I don't know how you plan on keeping your friends and I'll use that word loosely from taking a personal journey to kill your mother dearest."

"Our. She's our mother, don't forget that. For everything she's done she is and will always be our mom." Jaune thought in his head as his reflection sighed. To be fair it was not a straightforward story to tell as for the second? Time ever he felt Hate. Coming from Ruby as she actually broke her milk glass from gripping it too hard.

"At least she has aura. That glass could be a nasty cut otherwise." His reflection said as Jaune saw the seething gazes from his friends? That was the word for them. Or well for Ruby who looked almost ready to cry, as she barely kept her fave together thinking "Be strong Ruby! Do it for Jaune! Remember! Girls don't cry!" As Jaune looked to Yang who had actually crumpled her cafeteria tray as her eyes bled fire, to Weiss who had the most even look in her crystal eyes that while it betrayed no emotion was colder than the ice peak of Atlas, as Pyrrha was gripping his shoulder so hard he was afraid it would break and-
"Jaune. Why did you tell me this?" Blake asked with a pained look on her face as-
"Blake. I lost my families respect. I lost my name. I lost everything-
"You didn't!"
Ruby shouted as Jaune grimaced ignoring her as he went on.
"I want to get my honor back. You asked me what I wanted to do with my life? And this is it. I need your help to do that though. Will you help-
"Yes. Whatever you need just ask."

"I want my honor back. I'll never be an Arc again but I want to gain their respect that's why I need you to be my observer."
"Your observer?"
"Blake. You know me. You know me better than anyone else in Beacon."
Joy. Shock. Anger.
"Looks like the redheads aren't too happy to hear that."
"I need you to vow this here and now. You will look on me knowing me better than all others, and witness me take the Vesperax code." Jaune said giving Blake a second to adjust as he felt her look down on him with an increasing level of worry as Jaune gulped.
"I want my honor back. I want to get it back. To that end, I pledge to be the best hunter I can ever be. I will never shrink from my duty, I will never back down from a fight. From this day to my last day at Beacon I promise to dedicate my entire tot he saving of lives."
"My entire existence will be devoted to the saving of others. I will do everything in my power to save the lives of those around me and will not take one step backward in that goal. I will never back down, I will never run away. As long as there is one life to be saved I will save it."
"But what about your life?" Blake asked in a clam even voice that had a hint of metal in it as-
"It's forfeit. My life is irrelevant in this quest, I am here to save others if I did I die." Jaune said with grim finality as-

"Jaune! You can't-
"Fine. I accept that."
"Blake!? What are you-
"Will you also carry on the punishment should you, as the observer at the end of the four years find that I am wanting will you carry out the punishment for failing as it has always been?"

"What is the punishment?"
"The hell are you talking about!? Read my mind! What's the punishment? If it's reasonable blink twice!" Blake thought as Jaune blinked twice.
"Fine. I'll carry out the punishment as it is done."
"Take your sword and put it to my throat," Jaune said as Blake froze for a moment before nodding as she took out Gambol Shroud and placed it's black blade to his jugular. "I will carry out the punishment."
"Good. If I am found wanting you will end my life, taking my head from my shoulders and placing it on my family's front door."
"I will take your head and put it on your family front door!?"
Blake asked as her mouth dropped as Jaune nodded rising to his feet faster then he coudl narrowly avoiding Pyrrha' grasping hand as he went to Ren.
"Ren."
"Yes!"
"You are my best male friend. I need to know will you act as my other observer?"
"Yes!"
"Will you-
"Will I kill you if you faile to save others?"
Ren asked as Jaune froze as he felt the twin daggers of Ren's Stormflower pressing into his jugular as Ren but his blades to Jaune's neck as a manic girn came to his face,
"Oh yeah. I'll gut you right here and now if you want!" Ren chirped smiling ear to ear as Jaune felt a lump in his throat as Ren pressed his blades to his neck.
"Ren! What are you-
"Good. The task is done! I have said this in front of witnesses! And now it is binding I thank you all for your service." Jaune said bowing to the table as-
"If you think that that's going to be the end of this then you are not the smartest kid on the block." His reflection said as Jaune gulped...


"Jaune!" A loud voice said as Jaune slunk through the Beacon hallway as after his little announcement in the cafeteria the boy had begun to sneak away from his friends. As his free class came and he avoided meeting Velvet int he Beacon library and-
"Jaune!"
"That's Yang." His reflection said in his shield as Jane gulped "I know that."
"Jaune!"
"She's calling us."
"I don't want to talk to her."
"JAUNE!"
"I don't think we have a choice."
"I can outrun her."
"She's shooting herself here with her gauntlets."

"Oh Oum dammit." Jaune cursed as Yang landed with a crash in front of him shattering the beacon floor in a mighty shower of sparks and flames as Jaune sighed.
"Still think we can outrun her?" His reflection said as the sun dragon of Beacon slammed in front of him with the force of a freight train as Yang laned like flaming meteor and-
"Jaune! We need to talk. Now." Yang said as flame fell from her eyes as she smoldered...


"So... what did you drag me to a secluded closet in the far back of Beacon for Yang?" Jaune asked gulping loudly as Yang closed the closet door with a loud slam! As-
"Well, we are either going to be murdered, raped or both. My money's on the rape, but the night's still young."
"Why are you such a pessimist!? She's not going to rape us!"
"Twenty lien says we don't leave this room with our pants on."

"Why-
"I'm sorry! I'm so! So! Sorry!" Yang said suddenly prostrating herself in the closet as Jaune froze and-

"To be honest I'd expect it would be us on our hand and knees not her. But this does present some unique opportunities.' His reflection said as Jaune sensed-
Guilt? Comming from her-
"Yang? What are you-
"I'm sorry! I'm sorry for everything! In the weight room that was my fault and I'm sorry!" Yang said as she began to delve into an apology as Jaune sighed.
'Forty minutes? She has some damn good lungs on her you know?" His reflection asked as Jaune nodded as Yang apologized profusely for the weight room and her branding of him-
"She did not apologize for the mark." His reaction added on smugly as Jaune sighed.

"Yang you don't need to apologize-

"Yes, I do! I... I didn't mean to hurt you.
Guilt. Frustration. Anger.
"I... I've had this problem my entire life and it fucking suck! I've dealt with this shit my entire life! And I don't want it to follow me here!"
"Problem? What problem?"
"Me! It's my own strength... I'm too strong...
"You are too strong? What does that mean?"
"It means what I said... Back home in Patch I really! Really! Wanted a boyfriend... but I never really got one...
"You? You are beautiful. How did you not get at least a few takers? Even if they had others?"
"It's my muscles! And my personality... I... I get carried away a lot and I end up scaring away most guys! If you can believe that... Yang admitted weakly as her lilac eyes hung low and-
"I can."

"Quiet you."
"Really? You don't look that scary to me-
"That's why this sucks! You are the first! Guy to look at me and not freak out thinking I'm some muscle-bound hulk! You actually got close enough with me to... to let me touch you and I hurt you... I Really! Didn't mean to do that and-
"Yang. It's ok."
"No, it's not! If my mom learned I hurt a guy!? I really would not sit down again and-
"Yang. You made a mistake. We all make mistakes, it's ok." Jaune said with a faint smile as-
Relief.
"Look. I know I'm a bit rough on the edges. I know I talk big and make jokes but I'm not! A bad person. I won't abuse you... ever... I want to get to know you better! If you want to get to know me... If you'd give me the chance... please?"
"Wow... she looks... weak?"
"She's opening up to us. We can't let her hang."
"That's an option. Hey! How about we test her!"
"Test?"
"Tell her about our dream! She' can't react worse than Pyrrha and maybe she'll be like Ruby?"
"Let's give it a shot."
"Yang."
"Yeah...
"Wow, she even sounds weak."
"Can I ask you a question?"
Curiosity.
"About?"
"I... I want to be a hunter. It's my dream."
Confusion.
"Ok...
"Do you have a problem with me being a hunter?"

Intrest.
"Have a problem? What you mean have a problem? Why would I have a problem with you being a hunter?"
"I'm a guy-
"Jaune. My dad's a hunter. Why would I have a problem with you being a hunter?"
"So she's like Ruby. Good! Right?"
"Really?"
"Of course not! Hell I mean my dads a hunter and he taught me everything I know! He taught me how to fight! How to move and roll! Hot to punch! How to bob and weave like a pro!"
"Your dad taught you how to fight?"
"Duh. You don't see me waving around a big ass sword now do you? I mean if my mom taught me how to fight you don't think that I would be rolling around punching things to death do you?"
"That' makes sense."
"Your damn right it does! You should have seen the look on her face when I chose to have my dad training me instead of her! It was priceless! I think Summer was so shocked that I chose my dad and not my mom that she kind of forced Ruby to learn the scythe well after Qrow died that is...

Yang's mouth went still as her tone died out as-
Loss. Fear. Guilt.
"Qrow? Did she say Qrow? That's the second time we've heard about this. How many Qrows are there out there?"
"It's a common name?"
"The hell it is! We have only met one Qrow our entire life and he was a scythe user to? Do you think that's-
"No way. Qrow doesn't have a family remember?"
"Qrow also has amnesia remember?"
"Yeah but he doesn't look anything like Ruby or Yang so he's not their uncle."
"Whatever you say... I'm just saying! It's looking a bit fishy to me."

It said in Jaune's discarded shield as he turned to Yang.

"You said Qrow? You know a Qrow to?" Jaune asked fishing for information in the unlikely event that thier two Qrows where the same person and-
"Yeah I know or I knew Qrow actually... He was my mom's twin."
" You see, there. Proof, she said he was her mom's twin. Qrow never had a family."
"What part of amnesia are you having trouble understanding?"
"So what was he like?"
"He was the best! You should have met him! He was the coolest, kindest most awesome uncle ever! Sorry, I'm sounding like Ruby there. He was amazing though. He was the best babysitter, uncle and he was like a second father to us."

"So not bitter, drunk and cynical?" Jaune asked as-

Incredulity.

"What?! No way! Qrow was like the best! Other dad, you could have!"
"Qrow as a good parent?"
"Ok. You got me, he is definitely not the same person. I can't even imagine Qrow being allowed within a square mile fo a school let alone a child."
"He got into Beacon. That's a school full of kids."
"Yeah but tow things. One. This school's basic enrollment age is nineteen so they are not exactly children anymore. Two. This is also a school where literally every last person form student of staff is armed to the teeth. Hell! Even the librarian was packing a damn anti-material rifle! You remember that shit?!"
"Hard to forget-
"But to answer your question no. I don't have a problem with you being a hunter. If you want to do that it's your decision and I'll support you." Yang said as Jaune coudl almost taste her sincerity as he smiled.
"What about our kids?" Jaune asked as-
Anxiety.

"Kids?! You want to have kids with me!?'

"Sure. From what I know of you, you look like you'd be a great mother."

Fear. Pride. Hope. Glee.

A flurry of positive emotion along with a warm gooey felling from form the girl as Yang begna to blush brighter than Ruby's cloak as Jaune gagged hearing his own words and-

"Smooth. She looks like she's going to pop!"
"Will you be quiet!? I need to-
"Ho? You want to get back in my pants that badly blondie? If that's the case why didn't you just say something?" Yang asked stalking forward with a hungry look in her lilac eyes as Jaune gulped.
Hunger.
"Yang! I-
"Shh! If you just wanted to Yang you only needed to ask. You do want to have sex right? If you don't want to just say so and it's cool ok? Like seriously. Just say no. I'll back off." Yang asked pausing backing off Jaune hands up in the air in a don't shoot! Motion and-
"Kids! If we have kids what if they want to be hunters-
"So what? I mean hunting's dangerous but we'll train them well enough so they won't be in trouble.' Yang said easily shrugging her shoulders as if there was no issue what so ever.
"We?"

"Ugh yeah, we. I'm guessing if one of our rugrats wants to be a hunter we are both going to train them right?"
"Yes! I mean how would we raise them while being a hunter? life on the mission won't leave a lot of time to raise the kids you know?" Jaune asked as Yang scratched her yead before snapping her finger in an Aha! Moment.

"Well how about this when we have kids we can take turns raising them!"
"Take turns?"
"Yeah! Hunting pays well so all we have to do is take raising them in shifts!"
"Shifts?"
"Yeah! We'll raise them in six-month shifts! Six months in six months off! I'll even take the first six months so I can bond with the little tyke! Or tykes, that way we can trade responsibility evenly. How does that sound-
Yang's voice left her mouth as Jaune lept up to her arms sealing her lipa in a kist as her eyes flung open in surprise before a sly grin came over her lips as she gripped ass in her hand kneed him before slamming him into a wall as he wrapped this legs around her waist as she hefted him up against the wall as a grin split her face...


"Well. I got to say. I never thought Yang could do anything gentle." Jaune thought as he laid next to the sleeping form of Yang. The buxom brawler was laying still on top of her. Her massive muscled arms wrapped firmly around his neck as Jaune was shocked. Yang was well Yang was gentle...
She was actually the most gentle person he had ever had sex with, even Neo! Was that caring that tender that gentle with him when they had sex. She took her time literally constantly asking his permission before she did anything to him and slowly, gently made love to him on the wall of the closet and-
"You know I'm starting to think that closet sex is starting to become a fetish of ours and I don't quite know how to feel about that."
His reflection said in his shield as it had a disgustingly smug look on its face as it rested on Yang downright voluptuous ass that took up the entirety of it.

"I do."
"Yang that was...-
"Amazing. Phenomenal. Best sex you ever had?"
Yang said cockily raising her lilac eyes locked onto his rick cerulean ones as she panted a sift kiss on his lips that made his heart flutter.
"All of the above. And more."

"Your damn right it was!"
"Hah! Told you I'm the best! You thought I was just all muscles and no finesse? Hah! I'm a lot of things Goldilocks and if by the way you where screaming my name before mean anything I'm guessing you want round two?" Yang asked flexing her muscles making Jaune yelp! As his, he was still currents trapped inside of Yang's inhumanly muscled snatch as she moaned sharply.
"You like that? You know if you pick me as a girl we can do this every. Single day. Morning. Noon. Night. On a bed, on the ground, in the shower, on my bike."

"You have a motorcycle?"

"Sure do! And if I can make you purr like her? Well, I'm going to fuck you up a wall!"

Yang growled into his ear making him shudder as a cold hand gripped his spine, making his body freeze around her grip despite her heat.

"And whatever quickes we can get in between," Yang said whispering Into Jaune's ear making him shudder.
'I... I'd like that...
"I bet you will. Now let's gets dressed lover. We've been gone too long I think Pyrrha's going to be pissed you know?" Yang asked as Jaune smiled warmly at her as the two kissed as he felt a bond that was once weak grow as it tripled in size as Jaune felt a fire burn in his heart.


"Well I gotta say you are might not be pretty tall but you are in no way pretty small!"
"Well, I guess I could say you are hot to trot!"
Jaune and Yang said walking into the cafeteria walking hand in hand laughing and giggling happily to one another as-
"Jaune!?"
Pyrrha asked as Jaune and Yang came in hand in hand laughing and giggling as-
Jealousy. Treason? Treason?
Who the hell feels-
One glace answered that question as Jaune saw Ruby glaring hot death at her sister her hand crumpled up her milk carton as whit liquid fell over her face and-

"Look! She gave herself a pearl necklace! Without us doing it to her this time!" His reflection said as Jaune rolled his eyes and-
"Well, you two seem to be getting along well," Blake said in an oddly sharp tone as she averted her eyes form Jauen with a short but loud harumph!
"Not that I care what you do. Stupid." Blake thought as she huffed her head as Jaune grinned.
"What she meant was. It's not like I like you or anything! BAKA!" His reflection said in his shield as Jaune forced down a laugh.
"What can I say? me and Jaune had some quality time, and after some talking, we hit it off with a Yang!"
"She's right! After a few minutes with Yang, I found out that she was just like a banana!" Jaune said as the table raised their eyebrows to him as-
"She's very... appealing!"
"Dear god he's a punner." Blake thought as Yang laughed raucously.
"Good one! I could use that!" Yang said happily as the brawler smiled as she looked to Jaune with a victorious grin as Yang gripped his hand as Yang Xiao-Long had finally got herself a man...


Or so Yang thought! As she slammed her fist down angrily into the cafeteria chair. It had been over two days since her bonding moment with Jaune, and the boy had all but vanished! Both he and her partner suddenly disappeared without a trace, together. Vanishing for hours at a time coming back at all hours of the night?! Both exhausted often covered with soot to tired to even talk! Drenched in sweat thier clothes ripped to hell and back and looking half dead in the process! And they both refused to say that the hell they were doing and it was driving Yang crazy! "What the hell are you two doing!? Where the hell are you? I hope you're safe. Please be safe... If not for yourselves... For me... Yang thought as she looked at the empty cafeteria seats as she wondered where the hell her boyfriend and partner were as she prayed that wherever they were they were safe...


BANG!
"Get down!"
"I know!" Jaune shouted as he pulled the throttle on the motorcycle Bumblebee. Swerving the bike to avoid a sold round that was the size of Ruby that shot past them. As the two tore down the Vale inter pass as the bike roared down the freeway, it's speed was no surprise as it was Yang's bike after all that Blake had appropriated as the two shot down the Vale highway at eighty miles an hour chasing down a massive Atlas paladin as the city exploded around them munitions rained down from the robot as the two swiveled in and out of traffic, dodging bullets and all other manner of munitions fire as Jaune sighed as he remembered how this night all started.


"Welcome, sister! Have you come to join?" A tall woman in a white Grimm mask asked the latest entree in the line of faunus as Blake nodded to her.
"Yes. I have, I have also come with a new member." Blake said bowing to the deer faunus as she allowed Jaune to come forward.
" A human? And a man at that? For what reason have your brought this outsider to our cause sister?" The fang woman asked not convinced of her sister's gift to the cause as Blake nodded.
"Simple," Blake said as she nodded to Jaune as he returned the nod as his aura flared up filling the air blue as the woman nodded her head.
"I see very well then. Welcome, brother. Wear this masks recruits and follow the rest of the new blood inside. Take your time, but do remember that we are on a schedule. We have a special speaker tonight, and we must be present." The woman said as Jaune and Blake nodded as Jaune tossed a lasso onto Blake's head as she led him forward.
"Remember the plan."
Blake thought as the two walked into a crowed barren warehouse full of faunus as Jaune nodded his head.

"I do."
"Follow my lead; we need to figure out who this special speaker is so we can identify and eliminate them."
"Eliminate them? Are we going to murder him or her?"
"Her most likely and most likely yes. These are arms dealers Jaune, criminals that don't deserve to or pose too great a threat to let live." Blake thought into his head as he sighed.

"You know I would like to end the night without killing anyone you know? Just a thought."
"Well, that's most likely not an option. Do you know if Ren is close?"
"No. Last time I checked, he was on the roof? I think he said he's providing us with surveillance?"
"He's supposed to be watching our escape route!"
"I'm sure he's doing that. In some way." Jaune said as Blake sighed as the two walked to the front of the auditorium of faunus terrorist hopeful as the massive murmuring crowd of quasi-terrorist, disgruntled civilians really came to face the stage?
A massive stage with a red curtain and all was set up in the warehouse of all things as-
"Ladies and gentlemen!" A familiar voice said as Jaune and Blake's mouth dropped.
"You have got to be kidding me."
Jaune said as Roman came onto the stage swinging his cane and bowing extravagantly. As Blake looked ready to burst.
"Why am I not surprised?" Blake hissed as the man walked onto the center stage.
"Why hello ladies! How's the freedom fighting going tonight? Good? Bad? Somewhere else? I know my life is going-
Roman stopped in his tracks as his usual perfect poker face broke into a thousand pieces as his sharp green eyes were trained on to two familiar faces as blue and gold stared back into sharp green and-
"What in the-
"Why is a human giving us orders!?"
A voice shouted from the crowd as-
"Who let a man lead?!"
Another irritated voice said as-
"Ladies! Ladies! Calm down! I know I don't look like much and I do! Have an unmatched pair of chromosomes, but that doesn't mean I'm not on your side!" Roman said waving his arms flamboyantly to the crowd as his aura flash red, and the crowd gasped.
"Satisfied? Good! Now as I was saying the names Roman Torchiwck and I am your new best friend! You see I'm a lot like you! I don't like the government!"
"Yeah!"
"Down with Atlas!"
Voices from the crowd said as Roman nodded sagely as she walked back and forth on the stage twirling his cane in a lazy arc as he did so. Making sure to maintain and keep eye contact with any woman who took off her mask and even with those who kept them on. As the attractive young human-made more than a few faces blush as he grinned widely.
"Now! I know what you are thinking! What can this human do? Sure he may not like the government, but that doesn't mean anything if he can't deliver results! So I give you the discerning future freedom fighter.. results!" Roman said as the sound of heavy metal thumps! Filled the air as several massive war suits stomped into the room. Making Jaune and Blake gag as well over four Atlas paladins stomped into the room as-
"Jaune! Those are paladins!" Blake thought to him as Jaune nodded his head.
"I can tell. Why are you so-
"Now! As you can see I am more than just a pretty face! But I am still attractive. Ladies, what are you lovely women doing later on? I know I'm free." Roman said winking in the crowd as Neo popped out of a Paladin at the anterior bowing of the group. Landing n an elegant ever for Neo fashion next to her partner to the group as Roman smiled at his partner.
"Now as my lovely assistant, Neo has so wonderfully demonstrated these top of the line stolen Atlas war machines are-
Roman's speech was interrupted as Neo's multi-colored eyes locked onto Jaune as the woman gained a genuinely devious grin that sent shivers up Jaune and Romans spine as both of them began to sweat nervously.
"Neo. Honey. You look a bit wane-
Roman's speech was interrupted as Neo vanished in a shower of glass as she popped! In front of Jaune her tri-colored eyes shining with delight as she gripped Jaune by his collar yanking him up as he yelped.
"Neo!? What are you-
Jaune screamed as he was popped! Out of reality as his being was broken down compressed and forced into a space between spaces as it was folded into an infinitely small dimension and torn out of space and tossed out back into existence as Neo appeared on the stage as she tossed Jaune onto the center stage with a loud whap! Jaune gasped as Neo tossed him on the stage slamming him on his back before stomping her foot on his chest, making him wheeze in pain as her high heel crushed his ribcage as she angled her sword to his neck.
Tearing off his Fang mask exposing his human face as she held out his Beacon Id-
"Neo!? What are you doing!?"
Roman asked his face draining of all color as Neo exposed Jaune as a hunter and-
"He's a hunter!"
"A spy!"
"Roman look out!"
A trio of voices cried out as Roman paused staring slack-jawed at his assistant as an angry red vein popped out on his face as he looked ready to kill someone and-
"Surrender terrorist! You are no match!" A sharp voice yelled as Blake teleported onto the stage drop kicking Roman in the back sending him spiraling forward in a pile of limbs and several choice curse words as the faunus girl appeared over Jaune. Gambol shroud raised and-
"Hunters!"
"Kill them!"
"Don't let them get away!" The voices yelled as Roman began to curse at Neo as Blake gripped Jaune by the collar yanking him up off the ground-
'We are going. Now!" Blake said as she gripped Jaune by the shoulders and-
"Stop hunter scum! You can't escape the might of the white fang!" Roman said in far to theatric voice as Jaune tossed a lasso to him and-
"Damn! Damn! Dman! Neo, when you are going to improvise you, got to tell me about it! I don't care how good the plan is if I don't know it's coming how the fuck can I plan for it!? I hope you can improvise kid because its time for a show!" Roman said as he pointed his cane at them only for Blake to yank Jaune out of reality tossing them both on the roof as Jaune and he gasped.
"Blake are we-
"We need to chase him!"
"What?!"
"Neo texted me; she's putting on a show!"
"A show!? What the hell is that supposed to mean?!"
"It means Neo's setting us up to look! Like hunters!"
"We are hunters Blake!"
"That's the point! She want's to spin a tale that we are double agents infiltrating Beacon for the Fang."
"What?! When did she text you this!?"
"Right after she yanked you on the stage now come on! Roman's going to give us one helluva show." Blake said as she and Jaune ran across the Vale roofs as Vale as they sprinted to Bumblebee as a massive explosion left the warehouse as a Paladin stormed out with a man on top of it.
"You'll never take me, alive hunters!" Roman said int he most non-Roman manner of speaking as the robot crashed off into Vale as Jaune felt a lump form in his throat as he had a distinct feeling that this was going to be a long night.


"Left!" Blake shouted as she pressed her soft breast into Jaune's back not that he could feel much of them as the boy was too preoccupied driving the damn motorcycle, and keeping the two of them alive in one piece not smearing into a messy red past on the ground courtesy of a Gatling cannon round as the powerful VRM! Of the engine filled his ears as a low blue hum! Filled his legs as a glowing blue wave of energy engulfed him and Blakes' waist as some kind of inbuilt inertia dampeners activated in the seat of the bike.

As it sensed their high speeds and sought to protect it's riders as the harsh night air slammed into his face as he swerved in and out of traffic, ignoring the loud beeping of car horns and the sharp flashing of brake lights as another loud FWISHH! Came over them as a rolling ball of plasma shot over their heads landing with a dull wet hiss!

Behind them as a massive chunk of the Vale freeway dissolved into a boiling frothing mess as Jaune cursed barely avoiding being immolated or not barely as Roman was not really trying to hit and kill Jaune as Blake had roughly and quickly give Jaune the branching details of Neo's impromptu plan as Jaune rolled his head as the woman of his dreams or one of them anyway as Blake was currently wrapped around his back. Her large breasts now wedged firmly onto his neck as loud bangs! Filled the air as she fired Gambol shroud into the back of the Paladin cause the bullets to bounced off harmlessly as Jaune would kill!
For a damn motorcycle helmet or a pair of goggles! As even now one! Stray bullet would have ended his and Blake's life as he knew that without aura a stay rock would have blinded him long ago and-
"He's going off the road!"
Blake shouted as Roman lept off the freeway jumping down barreling through a blocker and causing a massive hole in the overpasses as-
"Hold on!"
Jaune said acting on instinct more than rational thought as he floored the motorcycle to the now gaping hole in the freeway as-
Panic.
"Jaune!? What are you doing!"
Blake cried out as Jaune drove them over the overpass as they drove off the freeway into a five-story drop onto the docks as the bike went mid-air as Jaune and Blakes grip on the motorcycle faltered and failed, as both teens let go of the bike as they began to float mid-air as the teens screamed.


"My leg...
"Jaune!? Are you ok!? Are you-
"Hey! You guys! That's not! Very! Fair!" Ren said appearing behind them the boy being on the opposite of the building when the chase began. Had been teleporting behind them all through the night as he came to the red face painting and-

Bang!
A bullet nearly took Ren's head off as he dived behind the smoking cover of the now nearly totaled Bumblebee as the boy pulled out Stormflower as all the teens looked above the smoking bike as Roman stood on top of the Paladin as he laughed wildly. "Hah! Take that you huntsmen fools! You will never take me alive! For I am the one! The only! The Roman Torchwick! Master thief of Vale!" Roman said laughing far too loud and-
"Roman! You shot at me! What the hell!?" Ren pouted stamping a foot on the ground and puffing out his cheeks as Jaune pulled him down.
"Ren, calm down! Roman's just-
Jaune paused as a bright pair of lights poured on him as a low whirring sound filled the air. As Jaune looked behind him as a flying dinner plate? Was looking at him as something flat, shiny with twin lights on it hovered to him and-
"The hell is that?"
Jaune asked pointing to the whirring hovering object nad-
"That's a news drone! It's a reporter robot! Jaune we are on the news! We are on tv! Hi Nora!" Ren said saving at the hovering robot as it's under mounted camera whirred in on him getting a close up as-
BANG! Another bullet zipped past them as if it was Roman's way to say hey! Remember we have a show to do! As Jaune and Blake shared a look as Blake pulled Ren to the side showing him her scroll as he gasped! With a loud "Aha!" As the news drown whirred over to them to try to see what they were reading before-
"Team attack!" Jaune said as he lept over the bike Crocea Mors swinging widely as Blake and Ren followed him out as the man in white smiled.
"Finally! Now we fight!" Roman said as the Paladin powered up as the fight began.


It was a fight for the ages! A battle of the weak versus the strong! A massive battle between good and evil! As the youth of tomorrow fought the crime of today! As the battle began as it was entirely faked.
As Jaune ran forward, Roman fired twin boiling balls of plasma at Jaune. Making him roll and dodge out of the hissing balls of blue energy.
As he ducked and weaved as loud Gattling cannon rounds pinged!
Off his shield, as even one round was more than enough to bring Jaune to his knees. As the sledgemagger force of the weapons impacted his shield each round threatening to tear his arm off as Roman played with him.
As Jaune led from the front Ren and Blake came from the sides. Both of them attempting to flank the robot, taking it from the sides using their semblances to sprint up to the machine.

As Roman was forced to turn to face them as Jaune finally broke past the deadly quote unquote onslaught of projectiles and plasma. As he ran beneath the shin of the robot slashing out at them with loud clangs! Of sparks, as Jaune slashed his ancestral sword into the shins of the robot.
Making showers of sparks fill the air, as his blade cut deep into the robot. As the robot began to stutter as Ren and Blake both came in form behind, acting like dancing blades.

Slicing into the robot as Blake tied up its legs with her ribbon before both Jaune and Ren attacked it from behind tripping it making the machine collapse onto the ground in a shower of dirt. As the titan slammed into the earth. As the robot fell, Roman was already out of it and smoking a cigar with a nefarious even for him look on his mouth as he rubbed his chin.
"Not bad kiddos! But not good enough! Get em girls!" Roman shouted as twin bullheads roared overheads as their Gatling cannons began to spool up as Jaune made a split second decision.
"Blake! Cover Ren!"
Jaune shouted tossing his shield at Blake. Making the amber eyes faunus girl's beautiful golden orbs go wide as Jaune gave her his shield. As Jaune saw the first low wisps of missile fire come from the aircraft as the first angry heads of the craft's missiles fired from them as the angry red rockets fired from them and slammed into the ground with a deafening whump crack as Jaune felt a massive fist slam into him punching him right in the gut, as he felt is feet life off the ground as his world went white.


For two second Jauen was gone, he was not on Remnant, not in Vale he was not even in the same universe. As he was ripped off the ground from the sheer concussive force of the missiles. As the boy was ripped out and tossed back into the world. As he was yanked back inot reality and screamed.
Jaune's mouth opened in what had to be a piercing cry as he felt a million tiny daggers in his skin as he swore he tasted electricity. Lighting dust munitions? Jaune thought as a loud shrill ringing filled his ears making his brain scream as it was split by a massive migraine as he struggled to see past the cloud of smoke as-
"URAH!"
Jaune coughed throwing up a wave of blood, as he vomited to the ground as he groaned. He had internal damage. His organs were bleeding that meant the needed a doctor soon and-
VRMMM!
The camera drone came over him, showing off a battered, broken boy on his hands and knees. Throwing up blood onto the cold ground of Vale. His body covered in white soot, as he looked almost like he was covered in snow as he threw up bright red blood painting the ground crimson. As he barely kept his consciousness as the drone zoomed in on him and-
Bang!
"AH!"
Jaune cried out as a bullet slammed inot his shoulder. As a fang soldier fired on him. Her bullet penetrating his armor as he crashed back into the ground his world spinning wildly as the woman a dear faunus? With tan, brown skin walked up to him rifle raised as she placed a solid boot on his chest making him cry out in pain as his ears finally stopped thier terrible ringing as the sound of harsh gunfire filled the air as sharp cracks! And bangs!
Of weapons, fire entered his ear along with the sound and smells of burning smoke and flesh filled his senses and-
"Time to die little huntsman." The woman said pressing her boot into Jane's chest making him cry out in pain. As searing agony entered his chest as she raised her rifle at him as blood shot out of his mouth and-
BANG!
The woman's head vanished in a cloud of red. As her body was lifted up in a wave of blood as her head and most of her neck literally disappeared in a moment as the woman was ripped off the ground and her body was tossed aside like a piece of paper. As Jaune gasped as the pain was removed from his chest as his body shot up gagging for air as he coughed up even more blood as his lungs flared with agony as a shadow fell over him.
As his head snapped up far too quick making his vision swim as a man? Stood in front of him, the man was huge, a giant for a man. Clad in a light grey uniform that Jauce cold tell was of Atlesian design. He had light stone cloud grey eyes that rumbled with the power of a thunderstorm but held a trace of youthful mirth and goodwill as Jaune felt his spirits instantly lifted as the man smiled.
It was an oddly warm smile filled with joy and hope as the man's stony concrete face that looked like it was crafted from iron look at him as he blew the barrel of a giant smoking revolver and-
"That was one helluva move you did there son! Sacrificing your shield to save your friends like that? That was a noble thing noble but stupid! That was risky and stupid! What were you thinking son!?" The man bellowed in a voice that was so loud that it cut clean through the chaos of the world around him, making Jaune hear him like he was shouting through a loudspeaker as he gulped.

" I was saving my friends!"
"You were being foolish!"
"I needed to act!"
"You put yourself at a unnecessary risk!"
"I needed to act!"
"You needed to think first!"
"I was the leader! I had to make a call-
"Exactly! You are the leader! You can't expect your men to go on and live without you can you!? Without the head, the body falls! You can't-
"Look out!" Jaune said diving past the man smashing the pommel of his sword into the abdomen of an attacking Fang grunt making her gasp!
In pain as he slammed into her before BANG!
The man blew her head off in a shower of gore as Jaune grimaced as his face was cover in blood and-
" I never forget the name of a man who saved my life. What' your name son?"
"Jaune Vesperax! Who are you?'
"My name is James. You can call me Ironwood though. Now follow me, son, we have a battle to win!" The man said as the dust from the missile strike finally cleared as Jaune saw the battlefield in clear definition.
Roman was being evacuated on a third bullhead as he shouted bloody murder into his scroll as the other two bullheads let out a squad of fang Grunts-

PANIC.
"Jaune!?"
Blake yelled teleporting at him and-
Fear. Worry. Anger.
"What the hell were you thinking?! You got hurt-
"He was thinking about saving your life little lady. His quick thinking saved both you and your friend over there." James or Ironwood said pointing to a limping Ren who's right leg was bent at a wholly unhealthy angel as both of his eyes were a dark purple color as he grimaced.
"Ren!? Are you-
"I"m great! I just can't fell my leg, and I think I can taste my own blood!" Ren chirped as he spat up a thin line of red and-
"Jaune you are hurt, you need-
"We need to attack! Jaune! You are the leader what would you suggest we do?" The man asked as Jaune saw the woman forming a firing line on him as-
"Fire! James, Blake Renshoot them! I'll charge the front!" Jaune yelled a Blake balked Incredulity-
"Are you insane-
Pride.
"HA! Straight down the middle! I like it! You heard the man! Let's give these terrorist sons' of bitches a run for their money huh? Men! with me!" The man said as he began sprinting toward the enemy as Jaune took a second to arm the man running headlong into a wave of gunfire his heavy pistol sounding as loud thunder cracks filled the air as women's head vanished in clouds of pink and white, or their chest where caved in as aura popped!
"Follow him!" Jaune yelled as he began sprinting ignoring the burning pain in his side as he ran to the gunfire.


The journey to the fang fighters was less than one hundred, but it might as well have been a mile. As Jaune ran into gunfire without his shield.
"Goddammit! Of all the time to not have a shield!"
"Hey don't blame me, you tossed it over to the horny kitten and the green sociopath."
His sworn said dismissively as his reflection shrugged and-
BANG!
"GE!"
Jaune hissed as a bullet tore past his neck ripping part of it open as he closed the distance. Jaune hit the Fang right when Blake did. Slamming into them like a force of nature swearing and cursing out loud as he and Blake crashed into the fang as the man James grunted in pain as a bright flash followed by a bang! Filled the ait as the man staggered as he began to grunt.
The man grunted as a grenade went off at his feet tearing open his chest in a wave of shrapnel as bright red lines of blood spilled from his silver uniform as he ignored the pain and severe bleeding as he still fought. Firing his massive gun in one hand. Caving in the heads of faunus in the other with powerful punches.
As they two joined the melee, it was a brutal bloody affair, as Jaune and Blake hacked and slashed into the fang. Without a shield, Jaune was reduced to pure offense as he battled his way into the Fang as he and Blake hacked and slashed cutting limbs from bodies, making a women scream in pain as body parts flew in the air as time slowed and dilated expontentially as it flowed and ground into one congealed blur of blood, pain gunfire and-
"Enough! We did it!" The man said bellowing loudly as the last woman died and her massive fist as his gun let out one last thunder crack of a BANG! As a dying woman's chest head vanished as the enemy bull heads flew away as the man smiled as blood pouter out form his chest in worrying amount.
"Sir! Your chest-
"Don't worry about me son. I've had worse-
"You don't have aura!?" Blake shouted as the man let out a bellowing laugh that was rich and heaty and lifted Jaunes spirits.
"Of course I have an aura little lady!"
"Then why don't you use it!"
"Why would I ever use my aura!?"
"Old man you need-

SHOCK.
"Old!? I'm only twenty-nine! Don't tell anyone though. I don't like to let that secret slip out!" James said winking in a childlike manner before grunting in pain as more blood came out of his face as Jaune grimaced.
"What isn't your aura healing you?"
"Because I suppress it son."
"You what!?" Blake said as Jame grinned at her.
"You heard me I suppress my aura in combat-
"Why!? Why would you ever do that!?"
"Becuase the vast majority of my men do not fight with aura so neither shall I."

"That doesn't make sense!"
"I will not order to do something that I would not do. If my men fight without aura then so will I." The man said as Blake abled before another roar filled the air as a bullhead with the Atlas color flew over them as the man smiled.
"Good! The calvary is here no how about we get you three treated? You look like hell."


"So tell me about yourself Jaune! What's the only living male Arc doing all the way in Beacon?"

"Sir I'm no longer an Arc, I'm a Vesperax. Ow!" Jaune hissed as the medics finished dressing his wounds, taking out the bullets in him. Stitching him up and pumping him full of morphine. As the bullhead roared itno the night as the smell of harsh antisceptic filled his nose, as he looked to the titan of a man across from him.
The man now known as General Ironwood asked as two medics worked on his body and-
"Sir! That was incredibly risky, and I can not condone what your actions!"

A sharp all to Weiss like voice said as a beautiful woman in an Atlas uniform with a deep blue wedding ring on her finger strode forward and-
"Winter! Calm down! I had it all under control!" The man said in an easy fashion as-

Anger.
"All under control!? Sir, you nearly died!"
"All med did Winter! If I did in battle, I die in battle!"
"Sir, you are two important to loos in a minor skirmish in Vale sir!" The older Weiss copy said as the man sighed.
"Winter, I know you are worried, but I am fine! I mean look I'm still breathing!" The man said flexing his massive chest as Jaune still looked in awe at his half metal arm as the older woman sighed.
"If you say so, sir...
"I do! Now go get young Jaune a cup of water! I think he was about to tell us a story!" The man said grinning ear to ear in what could only e described as a childlike grin as Jaune felt his heart melt. As the man calmed him with a smile.

"Well, sir I came to Beacon to be a hunter-
" A hunter!? Outstanding! I always thought there should be more males in the academies! I'm glad to see that Vale is following Atlas's example of progress!"
"Progress sir?"
"Oh! You don't know! I have finally through careful vetting brought up the male population of the Atlas academy where I administer up to twenty percent of full-time hunters in training!"
"Full-time sir?"
"AH! There are a large amount of male and! Female suddens who can not have their aura unlocked who train to be part-time hunters. Not going on full missions unless in desperate times of need in support roles but enough about me! How is life in Beacon? Has there been any problems?" The man asked raising a knowing eyebrow as Jaune gulped.
"Not really sir...
"Nor really? You have three marks on your neck son. How did you get those? I'm guessing the girls who gave them to you did not do it with your consent?" "I...
"Save it, son, I know how it is. Most women do not care about men, especially one who wants to better themselves in the world."
"Your water Jaune," Winter said giving Jaune his cup of water as the beautiful woman made him smiled.
"Thank you, Winter."
"Anything for my brother in law."
Winter said with a smirk as Jaune felt his cheeks light up and-
"Oh! You are Weiss's potential fiancee! Good on you! Weiss is a good girl, I know her personally! She takes after her father which is a blessing that we are all thankful for." The man said as Winter nodded slowly.
"Yes, she takes most of her personality from our father, and luckily not our mother. Willow is less than kind on the best of days...
"You can say that again. She almost tore down over two! Centuries of goodwill between the faunus and Atlas all over Lien! "
"She was a bit... economically centered." Winter agreed as Ironwood nodded.

"I'll say, now Jaune have you had any significant problems with women at the academy? Are any of them getting too handsy with you?"
"No sir I-
"Jaune. It looks like there was a police report filed under your name about a rape!? Jaune you were sexually assaulted!?" Winter shouted reading her scroll as Jaune gagged.

"How did you know!?"
"What?! Why was there not an investigation on this!"
"I didn't press charges! I-
"Jaune. There is nothing wrong about being assaulted, you don't need to feel ashamed about this. If you want you can just talk you know?" James said as-
"Sir I-
"Sir. This is interesting. From what my contact in Vale says not only was the police report conveniently lost, it looks like it is not even officially logged in the V.P.D.'s files."
"Say that again Winter?"
"Sir. It looks like someone tried to sweep this under the rug."

"To do that you need to be powerful..."
"And there is only one person who could do that...
Winter said with an evil grin that sent a chill down his spine as James smirked.
"Jaune I must say thank you."
"For what sir?"
"Jaune you just gave me a bargaining chip and stuck a blow for men everywhere!" The man said grinning ear to ear as Jaune felt a pit form in his stomach.
"Sir? I don't understand."
"You don't need to, now! Let me tell you about Atlas Academy and why you should transfer!"


"Mister Arc!"
Glynda said as the Atlas bullhead touched down in Beacon as-
PANIC.
Washed over him as he saw the remainder of ther teams and-
"Opal! So glad I could see you!"
James said walking up to the Beacon headmistress with a wide smile as Opal froze as a sneer came over her face.
"James. Why are you so happy?"

Opal asked as she saw an uncharacteristic smile on the usually stoic man's face as she grimaced.
"Becuase me and you need to talk. And oh Jaune! About your potential transfer to Atlas-
"Transfer?!"
Opal and Pyrrha said at once as Jaune gulped as Opal sneered at the man.
"James. Jaune is mine, not yours. He will stay in Beacon-
"He will go where he chooses. He's a free man."
"No. He is not. He is currently a ward of Beacon and is under my care for the next four years-
"I can offer a custodial transfer. If I have his approval that is I'm sure the council would listen to me." The man said as Opal looked ready to attack the man and-
"James! You're ok! I'm so glad-
"Glynda. I do not recall asking for your assistance or your pity. So please, turn it down a notch and save it for somebody who cares what you have to say." The man said coldly shutting the dean down as Glynda froze as a frown came over her face as her head dropped in a defeated motion as Opal shook her head.
"Enough. Everyone go back to your dorms. Me and James have things to discuss..." The woman said as the teams collected their injured members as they all went thier separate ways.


"So Opal all I want is one favor."
"You mean you are demanding that I accept not only four! Students from your academy, that I listen to one about military tactics?" Opal blanched as James nodded his head.
"Yes."
"And if I don't?"
"Well, I might just deliver a special message to the Vale daily about how a powerful headmistress with a shady past covered up a sexual assault case on a certain male student."
Opal's eyes burned with green hellfire as she glared at James.
"James. It is not wise to threaten me."
"Is it? I'm not threatening you. After all, you would never cover up a sexual assault case now would you?" The man asked in a faux-innocent tone as Opal sneered.

"James. Bring in your student. NOW." The headmistress said as green hellfire came from her eyes as James nodded.

"She should be here right about-
Ding! The elevator ringed as Winter smiled.
"She's here."
Winter said in a calm tone as the door to the elevator opened as a pair of glowing amber eyes under a head of flowing rave hair, as a woman draped in a form-fitting Atlas uniform that was wrapped perfectly around her hourglass figure as she slowly walked into the room.
"Headmistress. Miss Goodwitch. A pleasure to meet you." The woman said bowing curtly as Opal raised an eyebrow to her.
"And you are?"
"AH! Let me introduce the number one student in Atlas! Opal, Glynda let me introduce you to my best student! Cinder Fall!"

James said as the beautiful woman whose body reeked of sin stepped up to smile at Opla with glowing amber eyes.

"Headmistress Opal, I have heard so much about you. My name is Ciner Fall and it's a pleasure."


"What is wrong with you!? All of you!?"
Anger. Rage. Frustration.
Yang shouted to Blake as she glared at her partner her eyes bring red as Blake sighed.
"We were going out to hunt the White Fang-
"The white fang!? Is that what you have been doing all this time!? Hunting god damned terrorist!?"

"Yes! We needed to do this!"
"We!? WE!? Who is we!? You!? Did you need to do this!? Did you need to drag Jaune and Ren into this!? Blake, they are hurt! Did you ever think about that before you went off fucking galavanting!?" Yang seethed to her partner as she avoided eye contact-
"Look at me, Blake! My friends are hurt! My partner is hurt! You need to give me a god damn answer here!"

"Someone needed to stop the Fang-
"And that someone is not YOU! It is not any of you! Blake! Ren! Jaune! I am disappointed in all of you!" Weiss shouted standing up glaring at her friends as Ren kept his head firmly to the floor fully avoiding Nora's withering glare at all cost as Pyrrha held Jaune fast in her lap, keeping a death grip on his shoulders as Jaune gulped-
"Weiss it's not Blake's-
"Don't you defend her Vesperax! This is all her fault and-
"My fault?! How is this all my fault!?"
"Really!? You are asking me that!? Blake! You are the eldest! Yoru are the girl! You are the one that is supposed to be responsible! Jaune and Ren are not only younger they are boys! You need to show some damn responsibility for once!"
"Boys!? So what if they are boys!? What does that have to do with it!?"
"It has everything to do with it!"
"They can make thier own decisions! I don't control either of them! And-
"Jaune likes you! He might be in love with you! He can't think straight because of you! Ren is Jaune's best friend he'll follow him anywhere! If you don't realize how the people around you will act you need to be better!" Weiss shouted making Blake go still as he frowned.
"I...
"You messed up and now my friends and teammate are hurt. You all need to take a break." Weiss said with a huff as.
Pain. Worry. Frustration.
Bled form her as-
"It's not Blakes fault Weiss-
"You! Don't think I'm done with you! I don't care if you are a boy! Your actions where foolish! Impulsive! Driven by emotion rather than logic and not even Ruby would do that!" Weiss shouted glaring daggers at Jaune as he gulped.
"W-
"Don't you Weiss me! You better have a damn! Good reason for doing this and putting not only you but Blake and Ren at risk or so help me!" Weiss practically growled as frost formed around her face as Jauenegulped as-
"Don't panic. Think. She's close to her sister and her sister is close to the general. It's safe to assume knowing what we know that Weiss probably thinks highly of the general opinion on matters. Use that." His inner voice said as Jaune nodded to himself as he fixed Weiss with a steely glare as-
"Well? I'm waiting!"

"I bet he can't even give me an answer! AH! How foolish is he!? How foolish are any of them!? They could have gotten themselves killed! And-
"The general thinks I made the right call," Jaune said as Weiss froze. Her mouth fell open and hung as she gawked at him as she looked like somebody had pointed at her with a magic remote and hit the pause button. As Weiss froze like a picture frame.
"He... He did?" Weiss asked as a rare tone of awe in her voice before her self-control reasserted itself as she shook her head.
"Regardless! It does not matter what he said, and I'm sure you took it out of context anyway! And-
"No. He said Arc. You did great out there. You made the optimal tactical decision and put the lives of your friends above yourselves. He said I acted in a right and full position to my place as a leader. And he was proud to see a young man like me. Do you not agree with Ironwood." Jaune said purposefully using the man's last name as Weiss gulped.
"N-NO! Ironwood is a great man! Abd if he says...
"He says that I made the right call. And I did nothing that he would not do. And he doesn't even have aura!" Jaune said as Weiss's mouth opened and flopped open as-
Incredulity bleed from her mind as the girl stuttered. "I-
"It was a tough call. I needed to act and I made the worst out of a bad situation. Was I entirely in the right? I wasn't, could I have made better choices? Absolutely. Did I? No, I made a mistake and I made the best out of it. I didn't mean to make you or anyone else worry and I'm sorry." Jaune said as Weiss's anger left her as she began to balk.
"Well them! I- I guess it's ok and-
"What?! No, it's not! You almost died! All three of you almost died!" Yang growled as Jaune went to face her.
"Yang it was a tough call-
"It was a call that didn't' need to be made! Jaune you had no! Business being there with Blake and Ren!"
"I-
"You went to fight damn terrorist by yourselves put your own lives in danger and-
"I had to do it, we had to do it."
"How!? No why, did you have to do it?"
"Becuase it's our job. We are hunters in training, we fight crime when we see it. IF we didn't stop the fang what kind of hunters would we be?" Jaune asked hoping to get Yang to see reason and-
"Don't give me that! I get it! You re a hunter! You want to show men can be hunters, and that's fine! I told you I don't give a damn about you being a hunter! What I do, give a damn about is if you are stupid about it!"
"Stupid?"
"Yes! You went out ther alone! Jaune! You are part of a team! You left half of them behind! You let Blake leave her entire team behind! How can you call that a good idea?"
"I-
"You made a mistake! Just because you made it work does not take away the fact that it was a bad idea, you put all of your lives in needles danger without a thought! To what we would think about and-
"That's not true."
Jaune said walking up to Yang, a thin smile on his face as he saw the ending.
"Not true? What do you-
"It's not that I didn't think about you Yang. It's because I did think about you that I went alone." Jaune said as the blonde brawler cocked her head.
"What do you mean?" Yang asked as Jaune sense Curiosity form her as he grinned walking up taking her hand in his. Making her blush brightly as he linked their fingers.
"You are my friend Yang. What I was doing was dangerous enough. It was stupid foolish and incredibly risky. I should not have been doing it even with Ren and Blake."
"Then why didn't-
"I care about you Yang."
MOOSH.
"Moosh? Did she just... moosh?" Jaune's reflection asked in his sword as Yang hear beat out of her chest.
"Yang. I care about you, all of you. But you specifically. I could never put you in harm's way without it being absolutely necessary. I didn't mean to make you worry. Honestly. And for that I', sorry. I didn't mean to make you worry."
"Well, I was worried-
"Goddess dammit! Why are you so cute?! Don't make me blush! I want to make you blush!" Yang though as her cheeks became rosy red as Jaune smiled.
"But. I did mean that I care for you, and the decision to keep you safe is one I will never regret. Ever. And I won't apologize for keeping my friends safe." Jaune said as Yang broke as Jaune felt a warm feeling enter his chest as he finished his speech. Passing it with flying colors as Yang blushed and backed off.
"Well if you say that... I guess you are ok! For now... Just don't make me worry again ok?" Yang asked as Jaune smiled.
"Don't worry I won't-
"Don't think you are walking out of this just like that Jaune," Pyrrha said as Jaune gulped. His part was not convinced that Jaune was out of the danger zone as Jaune moved to soothe her. "Pyrrha I-
"Jaune. I am your partner. Not only that I am your friend." Pyrrha said as her emerald eyes bore into Jaune as he gulped as he felt her will push onto his as he held. A chime sounded in his head as Jaune felt himself pass some type of test as Pyrrha grimaced as her blunt force attack failed as she sighed.
"Jaune. You have been avoiding me for two days and now this? Now you go out nearly get yourself and! Ren and Blake killed-
"He saved our lives."
Blake said as Pyrrha shot the faunus such a withering glare that she hissed in fear sliding behind Yang as Pyrrha glowered at her.
"You always do this! You consistently put the lives of others in front of yourself!"
"Pyrrha I-
"You don't care about your own life Jaune! I gave you my word, that I would keep you safe, how the hell! Am I supposed to keep you safe if you keep trying to get yourself killed?!

" "I don't try to get myself killed!"
"YES, YOU DO! Not only do you make it impossible to guard you, but you are also now actively trying to get yourself killed!"
"What!? Why are you saying that?"
"Why!? Because of your quest! You are literally trying to save as many lives as possible and you don't give a damn what happens to your self!"

"That's-
"Jaune. I know that you have your own code but! I can't let you throw your life away!"
"I'm not throwing it away! I'm saving people!"
"You are going to get yourself killed!"
"And!? So what if I die?! As long as I die saving others who cares!?"
"I do! I care if you die! Did you ever stop to think about how your own dam selfishness affects other people!?"
"Pot kettle-
"Pyrrha. I'm in Beacon to save lives. I accepted the fact that I was goign to die long before I came here-
"Jaune death is serious! How do you know-
"How do I know? Pyrrha if there is one thing that you do not know is what it feels like to fail.' Jaune said in a low tone ask he gripped his hands into tight fists.

"I've been on the road for years Pyrrha. I've seen people I know die. I've seen them get shot, stabbed and torn apart. I've watched as people my friends!

"I was forced to watch as people were torn apart by Grimm, eaten screaming! In front of me while I was too weak to do anything to stop them!"
"I've watched people that I care about despair into clouds of blood from shrapnel, and watched as what little family I've ever know was ripped away time and time again. My entire life! Id death Pyrrha, I've known nothing but it for almost ten years! When have you seem someone die Pyrrha!?"
"When have you ever watched your brothers, or sisters was eaten by an Ursa? Or been trapped under a collapsed building with a piece of shrapnel longer than your damn arm in your legs. Crying at the top of your lungs as he you bled out as your friends were executed in fon of your face by corrupt constables? When did-
"I haven't. I've never had to deal with any of that. I have lived a life of incredible privilege and was given almost everything I have ever asked."
"Then you-
"That is why I can't let you do this! You lived Jaune! Your family sacrificed themselves for you, and if you just throw your life away at every damn opportunity then you are doing them a disgrace. You are spitting in the face of everyone whoever! Died for you and you are a coward-
Whap!
Jaune didn't slap Pyrrha, he decked her. He jumped un and slammed his right fist into her face with as much power as he coudl muster snapping! Her neck to the right as his fist slammed into her face, making his skin split. As Pyrrha spat out a thin line of blood from her jaw. Fatah!
"Never. Call me a coward-
"Then don't act like one."
"WH-
Pyrrha caught his fist in her hand. Stopping his punch with contemptuous ease and bending his arm backward. Making Jaune cry out in pains as several loud sharp cracks! Filled the air as she bent his bone back as her emerald eyes glared death into him.
"Jaune. You are my friend. You are my partner. You are the man that is going to give me children. You do not get to die. I want you to be happy. I want you to be well. But I put you safety far above anything else-
"I want to help-
"I need you safe Jaune, and I do not need your consent to keep you safe. Do not make take drastic measures to keep you alive."

"I don't need you watching over my ass, partner!" Jaune growled as Pyrrha begna to walk Jaune back, making him cry in pain as she kept bending his arm backward as he glared into her eyes as she used her height against him trying and failing to intimidate him with her own height. As her, near seven-foot stature was unable to make Jaune flinch as she tisked! Loudly.
"Jaune. You are going to live and be safe. whether you like it or not, even if I have to handcuff you to my side to keep y you safe."
"You can try."
"Don't test me Vesperax!" Pyrrha said as Jaune felt Anger fall form her mind as-
"ENOUGH! No fighting!"
Ruby said finally interrupting the two pushing the part as-
'Her eyes! They glow!"
His reflection said as Jaune blinked owlishly as he saw Ruby's glowing silver eyes as she gripped his neck and-
Jaune felt his legs go weak as he felt that similar feeling of vines slithering into his limbs as Ruby rooted him to the floor."
"Ru-
"Jaune. You are my friend and I will say what I said on the rooftop. You do not get to die. I will keep you alive no matter what. If you want to commit suicide you picked the wrong best friend! So suck it up!"
"Ruby-
"I don't' care about your quest! I don't care about your shitty family that beat you! I care about you. You are my friend, and I won't let you die, not today, not tomorrow and not ever. So as long as I'm breathing you don't get to die, you get that?"
"Ru-
"Do you get that!?"
"Yes!"
"Good. Now let's go to bed. All of us." Ruby said as the teens finally cooled down as everyone sighed as Jaune was lead by Pyrrha and Ren practically leaped! Out of Nor's grip as he teleported all the way back to thier dorm as the teens went to bed.


"SO! You are goign to tell me one helluva story or I am going to break your head in!" Roman said stirring in his rolling swiveling chair as Jaune gulped at his boss.
"I-
"EHHH! Wrong answer!"
WHAP!
Jaune cried out as Roman lept over the table punching Jaune square in the top of his head knocking him flat on the floor of the back room of Juniors as Jaune hit the floor with an unhealthy whap!

"OW! The hell was that for!?"
"Oh, I don't know? How about for being fucking retarded! How does that sound?!" Roman growled as Jaune rolled his eyes standing back up as Roman paced ther room.
"I can't believe it! I just can't believe it! I try! And I try! But this!? You come to my rally! Without! Telling me! You are lucky that Neo's plan worked out-
WHAM!
The door to the room slammed open as Jaune gulped as Adam Tauras walked inside as Jaune felt a trickle of fear as the mn looked down to him before a wide smile broke his face. "Arc! Or should I say Vesperax you are a genius!" Adam said walking up to Jaune and wrapping him in a tight hug, making Jaune gag as Roman rubbed his head.
"Adam!? What did I do!?"
"What did you do!? You made the best entrance ever! I knew you where a strong man but now you area clever one too! My I could have made a better plan myself!"
"Beter plan? Plan for what?!"
"Modest as well as strong? You are a true credit tot he Fang!" Adam said laughing raucously as Jaune felt Joy. Pride. And Respect. Flood form him as-
"Adam... what did I do?"
"You are still being modest? jaune! Have some credit! your plan to infiltrate Beacon is as amazing as it is brilliant!" The man said as Jaune's jaw dropped as Roman sighed.
"See? I told you it worked." The man said as Jaune gulped.
"Infiltrate?"
"Yes infiltrate! I was a bit worried when my rescuer was a hunter in training but now? Now I know you are dedicated to our cause! The way you burst into our meeting exposing yourself as a hunter? Then fighting and giving chase to Roman on live television? Brilliant!"
"Oh, he's crazy." His reflection said n his power as a cold sweat gripped Jaune body as he looked to the laughing master terrorist. "Adam what are you-
"You! You tricked the whole city to believe you are a hero who fought the Fang!"
"I killed some of your men!"
"They died for the cause. They will be missed but you! You have the trust of Ironwood himself! Jaune you are going to be our secret weapon in Beacon and I am glad to call you my brother!" Adam said gripping Jaune in a tight hug as Rong gave a long sigh tossing his hand up in the air as the day got away from him as a lump formed in Jauances chest as Jaune knew this was going to be a long day...


'Coming right up!"
Ren said running back into the freshly remodeled and rebuilt Kitchen of Juniors carrying a tray of silver platters as Mil waited for him.
"Hey babe, hows the crowd?"
Milita asked taking a long drag of her cigarette as Ren sighed.
"There are dozens of them! The grand reopening is goign great!"
Ren said putting down his tray of silver platters and kissing Mil on the lips as she rubbed his hair lovingly.
"So tell me, what's the order?"
"I need to make a pulled pork sandwich, and some shredded beef for table one through five."
"Go into the back room. The meat grinders just behind the kitchen." Melanie said her glittering storm cloud eyes heavy with sleep as she got out of her bed and made her way down to the club floor.
"Thank's Mel! You're the best!"
"I know it. Tell Jaune to come and visit me before he leaves ok?"
"Got it!"
"Thanks, Ren, you're a doll.' Mil said yawning as Ren began to run away before a hand gripped him as mil pulled him back to her.
"Oh, Ren! One more thing!"
"Ye-
MMMM Ren moaned as she forced him into a passionate liplock as she forced her boyfriend to make out with her, as the two kissed for thirty seconds before finally releasing him with a wet plop!
"Thanks. Now get over there, people need to eat, and they paid top Lien so get!"
Mil said pushing the blushing Ren away from her before giving him a light whap! On his ass with her left hand making him yelp in pleasure and surprise as he doubled his space to the meat grinder.
"Damn he's got a good ass.'
Mil said practically growling as Melanie nodded

"I like my piece of ass better."
"When was the last time you got a piece of that cock anyways? You missed Jaune the last few times he came by."
"I know! It's been over a week! I'm so damn wet all the time! I just want some damn dick!"
Melanie whined as Milita chuckled as she laughed.
"Don't worry Jaune's talking to Roman and Adam-
"Adam!? Why is he here!?"
"Because he is technically Roman's boss."
"I thought Cinder was-
"She's his boss only if Adam is not in sight range. When Adam is in range he is in charge." Mil stated as her twin sighed leaning against the wall and groaning.
"That's the truth, why are you smoking?"
"Cause I feel like it."
"No. I meant why a cigarette?"
"You want me to start chomping cigars? Want me to pull a Roman on us?"

"Did I say that? I just meant you usually smoke outside, and you know that shit kills right?"
"So do bullets but you don't see me walking around with an unloaded gun now do you?"
"That analogy is flawed of several critical levels."
"Enlighten me, sister."
"For one, bullets don't cause lung cancer."
"Led poisoning does."
"Really?"
"Yes."
"Why do I even bother? Where the hell is Ren? The Meat Grinder isn't that hard to miss."
"Hell if I know, he should be back he is usually much faster than this and-
"Mil!"
Ren said popping! Back into reality in front of the twins making Mil jump and Mel almost choke on her cigarette.
"Ren!? Don't scare me like that! I mean dammit it! I almost shot you! And look at Mel! She's chocking on something that's not a dick!"
Milita said as Mel shot her a death glare from her storm cloud eyes as she choked on her cigarette as Mel laughed.
"Ren? Where the hell is the meat?" She asked as ren frowned as he showed her the empty meat platter.
"I can't find the meatgrinder!"
Ren said as both girls blinked owlishly as Mel finally! Coughed up her damn cigarette. "You what?"
"I can's find the meatgrinder! It's not there!"
Ren said as both girls shared a long questioning look.
"You can't find the meatgrinder?"
"What do you mean it's not there?"
Mel and Mila sked in order as Ren shook his head.
"I can't find it! It's not in the room!"
"Ren. It's a meatgrinder. It's the size of a small car, you can't miss it." Mil said calmly not knowing ho the hell Ren could miss the damn thing and-
"I know what one looks like Mil! But it's not there! The room was really! Dusty and ther was a big square spot in the dust but it's not there!"
"Did we move it?" Melanie asked scratching her head as Militia shook hers.

"No way. We got a new on a while back. But besides that, we haven't used the one in there for... years? I mean we were still new when we got here and that thing was gathering dust then. But we would know if someone moved it. We would have heard it. It's not easy to move the damn thing."
"I know, so how the hell can you miss it, Ren? It's bigger than you."

"I didn't miss! It's not there!"
"Ren. Let's go see if it's not there and if it is! You are going to spend the rest of the day with your head under my skirt." Mil said as Ren blushed as she led her boyfriend by the ass as Mel followed them inot the meat grinder room.


"It's... not here?"
"I told you!"
Ren said as Mil and Mel blinked owlishly as they walked into the room. The entire chamber was around five hundred feet wide and half long filled with small piles of soot but-
"Did we get robbed?!"
Melanie asked pulling ou sher pistol and scroll as Mil shook her head.
"No way, look at the ground. There is a fine line of dust everywhere. This took years to build up. Ren's footsteps are the only disturbance.' Mil said noticing that if someone did! Drag the thing out there would have been not only a shit ton of noise there would have been a long line of displaced dust but now?
There was only one line of foot sept leading inot the room, and a giant, square missing piece in the center. Where the meatgrinder should have been. As the thing was-
"The hell? How is this possible?"
Melanie asked as she walked forward.
"How did you take out a damn meatgrinder without opening the door and not disturbing the dust?"
"Did they teleport it out?" Ren asked as Mil flicked his head making him flinch.
Fit!
"No way, maybe...
Mil said as a thousand possibles came and went as she thought of everything from doors being pulled out to a bullhead team of thieves cutting open the roof and rappelling down to steal it but all those answers made no sense.
"Maybe... maybe it did just teleport away?" Mil asked as she shook her head as the three teens looked down to the empty room as the meatgrinder was gone...


"I just wanted one day without my life being complicated. Just one! Is that too much to ask!?" Roman asked out loud as Jaune gulped.
"He thinks I'm a double agent?"
"Why wouldn't he!? After that stunt Neo pulled? You attacked." Roman said in air quotes rolling his piercing emerald eyes as he sighed heavily.
" A fang gathering, then you fought off! The dastardly Roman Torchwick, and are now the hero of Vale! And a perfect double agent."
"So he thinks I'm an infiltrator?"
"You are an infiltrator now. Adam will have someone in touch with you soon to talk about mission goals whatever the hell that means."
"Mission goals? Roman! I'm trying to be a hunter-
"And I'm trying to keep my head on my shoulders! And so should you! You just got yourself in the good graces of one of in not the! The strongest individual in Remnant and while Adma likes men he does not! Tolerate failure. So you better be ready to do whatever the hell he asks of you. Got it?"
'Fuck me."
Jaune said falling back in his cushy chair as Roman nodded.
"I know the feeling, not that I've had sex in...
"Neo! What year is it?"
Roman asked as his assistant signed to him.
"Over three years! Anyway-
"Three years? Really? You look like someone who gets out...
"Jaune. Don't trust women. You can't have any faith in them. Period. They don't' care about, you re they are selfish control bastards who would put ou in a collar and have you as a damn slave all day." "What about Neo?"
"Neo is a Woman. Not women, she is an exception."
"But what about my partner? You told me to give her a try."
"And? Did she change? Did she treat you well?" Roman asked raising Jaune an eyebrow as he gulped.
"She... said she would listen to my consent...
"And?"
"Well... I Felt her regret that."
"You felt?"
"Oh she thoguht regret and I felt it," Jaune said as Roman blinked owlishly t him.
"She thought about it? How the fuck do you know what she was thinking? What can you do read minds?"
"Yeah, that's my semblance."
If Roman's jaw dropped any faster it would have fallen off.
"You... you can read minds?"
"Yup."
"Read mine. NOW!"
Roman snarled as Panic, Elation. Filled the air as Jaune tossed a lasso on him.
"No fucking way you can read my mind! You're bullshit!"
"No fucking way you can read my mind! You're' bullshit!"
"Imfucking possible."
"Imfcuking possible."
"My little sister's name is Rosewick. I love her more than life itself. I was her light as a kid and I would die for her."
"Your little sister's name is Rosewick-
Roman leaped over the table yanking Jaune up by his collar as he snarled in his ear.
"How long!"
"How long what?!"
"How long have you been able to read minds!?"
"Since I got my semblance unlocked!"
"Have you ever read my mind before this!? Don't you fucking lie to me!" Roma said shoving the but of his cane under Jaune's throat as he gulped.
"Not really!'
"The fuck does not really mean!?" "It means I didn't mean to!"
"What!? You can't control it!?"
"NO! Up until now, I was limited to hearing only when I was physically touching someone! Now I can read pope mids form affair if I lasso them!
"Lasso!? The fuck are you a cowboy!?"
"No! I don't know everything! I haven't done anything wrong I swear!" Jaune said as Roman pushed him down as the thief sighed as Jaune gagged violently as-
"Jaune. Listen and listen good. I'm in hot water. I need to show my boss results."
"Your boss? Adam?"
"No! My boss is much more heated than Adam She is demand results and she is even in Beacon."
"She's in Beacon?"
"Talking to Opal as we speak more than likely. Now you are going to prove to me in four days! FOUR! Not one! Not Two! Not Three! But four days, with a full five! Page report on all of your teammate's strengths, weaknesses and any vulnerabilities for the VYTAL tournament."
"Is this about our plan?"
"No shit! I need to make you see how fucking serious this is! Jaune do you like your friends?"
"Yes."
"Do you love anyone?"
Roman asked as Jaunes head swiveled instinctively to Neo who had an ecstatic expression on her multi-colored eyes as she licked her lisp before Jaune turned back to a sighing Roman.
"I meant do you love anyone at Beacon?"
flashes of gold, brown, lilac and silver came into his mind as Jaune gulped.
"Yes."
SHOCK.
Neo's jaw nearly fell to the floor, as she looked ready to fight him as Roman sighed. "Ok. Jaune. If you do not! Win Vytal there is a good chance everyone you know will die. Painfully."
"I won't let that happen!"
"You won't have a choice! This is do or die Jaune! We are in the big leagues here kid! We are either going to win or fail! Now go to Beacon give me everything! You can on your teammates, then I'll give the info to Zach and Hino and your training can begin. Neo! Make sure he can still fuck when he gets back if he can't even walk how the hell is he going to interrogate them?"
Roman asked as Neos' mouth was still almost on the floor as he turned to Jaune.
"Jaune. Listen to me, you must do this. You have to win Vytal. In tow days you are going to MountGleen-
"How did you know about that?"
"I have my sources in Beacon. You are not the only one who has issues with Opal. ANyways. You need! To keep your fucking head low until then ok? Don't cause any major problems and stay the fuck down! Do I make myself clear?"
"Yes."
"Good. Now Neo take him home without! Fucking him. I need him to be thinking clearly k?" Roman asked as he puffed a cigar both Jaune and Neo stared at him with slack-jawed looks as he growled.
"Well!? What are you waiting for!? Get moving!" The thief yelled a Neo yelped! Not used to legitimate anger form her partner as she gripped Jaune making him scream as he popped! Out of reality leaving Roman alone and tired as he sighed.
"Why me?" Roman asked as he moaned loudly.


"Bye?" Jaune said as Neo nowed quickly leaving Jaune alone in the Beacon hallways. As she shattered out of reality a panicked look on her beautiful face as Jaune sighed. Gripping the necklace Blake gave him, smiling as the orange crystal seemed to act like a second sun as images of gold filled his eyes filled his eyes and heart and-
"You have new messages."
"Do you live to kill my moments?"
Jaune asked his reflection as he checked his scroll seeing forty? New messages from his friends.
Ten from Pyrrha, six form Yang, Twelve?! From Blake, five form Coco and the rest for Coco and Weiss as-
"Why are they messaging me?"
"Becuase you skipped class to talk to a master thief. Duh." His reflection said as Jaune sighed as he did skip class today and-
Ding!
New message! His scroll rang as-
"Cardina? What does she want?" He asked as-
"She. Right."
His sword said as he opened the message.
"Arc! Come to see me, I need you...
"Is she coming on to me?" Jaune asked as his sword sighed.
"Why am I an idiot?"
"Hey! Don't call me an idiot!"
"Then don't act like one." It said as Jaune sighed as he begna to walk forward.


"Ren, why did you follow me?"
"I felt like it!"
Ren said as Jaune sighed struggling to walk as Ren found him as he knocked o the Cardinal door.
WHAP! WHAP! Jaune knocked on the door as-
"THere you are! I need to talk to-
"What the hell is he doing here?!" Carina asked her brown eyes full of worry as Ren waved.
"Hello!"
"Ren found me, I can't take him home."
Jaune said as Cardina looked on with incredulity.
"I see... why is he hanging around your neck like a scarf?"
"I don't know."
"Can you take him off?"
"I don't think so...
"Fine. Bring him in, I guess I can tell him to."
"Yay! I'm part of the crew!" Ren said as Jaune walked into team Cardinal's room as Ren thankfully jumped off his shoulders. As Jaune sighed not that Ren was heavy but he was still almost fully grown human and-
"So what did you want to talk to me about?" Jaune asked as the girl took a deep breath as she gulped.
"You... you are a man...
Cardina said evenly as Jaune nodded his head.
"Yes, why?"
"You want to be a hunter?"
"I do."
'How!? How can you be so... so bold! You just walk in her like I'm going to be a male hunter and you don't care about what people think! How do you do that?!"
"I just do...
"I wish I could be like you...
"Cardina? What are you talking about? Why did you call me here-
"Becuase I'm tired! I'm tired of hiding who I am!"
"Who you are? Who are you?"
"Let me show you," Caridina said as she reached to her blonde hair and took it off...


"So you're cross-dressing?" Ren asked as Cardina or well Cardin. Took off his wig showing a thin bit of brown hair as Jaune raised his eyebrows.
"You are a guy...
"Yes! I'm a guy trying to be a hunter ok"!
Carid said blushing brightly as Jaune nodded his head slowly.
"But you are cross-dressing?"
"Yes...
"Why?"
"So I can be a hunter! You think my family would just let me come here!? I had to sneak out one night barely pass my entrance exams in this damn wig and now I'ma leader?! Of a team of girls who do not! Think men should be hunters and I'm losing my shit!" Cardin admitted as he began to panic.
Panic. Fear. Hope. Bleed form the boy as-
"I just want to be a hunter! All I ever do is to save people! But now?! Now I'm stuck on a team who don't' even think a guy should be let out of the house! Let alone go to a hunter academy! They are mean, rude racist! You think I wanted to bully Velvet!? I love the faunus! My best friend's a faunus and she's great! I can't do this anymore Jaune! I need-
"You need to calm down. Listen. You can be a hunter, Cardin. You don't need to worry about what others think of you. If you tell your team you are a hunter I'm sure they will listen to you."
'No they won't! You need to understand! They are terrible!"
"I'm sure they cant' be that bad!"
"They are! They actually are! I... I can't do this Jaune the hiding, the cross-dressing the-
"You need to calm down. I know this is hard, but trust me Carid. I'm your friend-
"Since when have we and him been friends? I thought you didn't like him?" "I know what it's like to have your family look down on your dreams. Don't let anyone tell you to not be a hunter Cardin. I know you can be a good one. Even a great one!" "You really mean that?"
"I do."
"Thanks... Jaune... Noone has ever really done that besides Sandy. She's my best friend.. you are the first person to say that to me...
"Don't worry about it, if you ever want to talk just come to me ok? I'll be sure to help you out."
"Thanks, I-
"Question!"
Ren said popping up from the sideline as both boys turned to the once quiet magenta eyes boy as they cocked their heads at him.
"And that is?"

"Are you wearing a thong?" Ren asked as both boy's coughed.
"Ren!? You can't ask him that!" "Why not? He said he was cross-dressing. I just want to know if he foes all the way!" Ren pouted as Jaune blushed nad-
"So-so what if I am! What's it to you!?"
Cardin stuttered out blushing as Jaune, Ren and his reflection all turned to him as their eyes became as wide as saucers.
"What color are they?"
"Ren!"
"B-Black! So what!?"
"Oh my god, he's wearing women's underwear."
"Oh! Black? What about your bra?"
"Black! Wh-shy do you care!?"
"Becuase I use to cross-dress!"
Ren said as Jaune's head snapped so hard he thought it might break.
"Ren?!"
"I used to be dressed up in girl clothes al the time in Nora's house! My aunt Flaura use to dress me up in panties and bras all day! she said she always wanted a niece and from was pretty feminine you know!" Ren said happily as Jaune had to purge his mind of many images of Ren in lingerie as-
'It's not comfortable around your balls you know?"
"Right! I hate wearing thongs!"
"So why the hell is he wearing them? Just wear panties." His reflection said in a tired voice as Jaune balked as Ren and Cardin engaged in an animated discussion about the pros and cons of cross-dressing as Jaune felt the need to slowly, calmly leave the room and- "Hey, Jaune! Have you ever tried cross-dressing? I'd think you would look great!" Ren said happily as Jaune suddenly felt like he needed to run. Fast. Now.
"Get out of here. NOW!" His reflection said as Ren and Cardin both fixed Jaune a devious look as he gulped.
"Ne- not really...
"Not really?"
"I mean! My elder sister used to dress me up in her underwear as a kid and take pictures of me. But that was it!" Jaune said as images of Carol taking pictures of him in her own lingerie that was three sizes too big. As she flashed him in many, many photos that she hun in her room for her... personal use...
"That's... interesting... but! You want to try it?" Ren asked as Jaune swore! He sensed EVIL coming from him as-
"N-no! I'm good! I mean I don't want to bother Cardin-
"Oh, it's not a bother! I have too many underwears as is you know?"
"I don't and-
"Ah come on Jaune! You said Cardin was your friend right? And I'm sure if you dress up as a woman to it would help him speak much more easily!"
Ren said with a devilish grin as Jaune began to back peddle back to the door.
"That's not necessary Ren I-
"RUN!"
"I gotta go!"
"Get him!"
Ren said as both he and Cardin jumped Jaune as he held his ground.
"Get back! BACK I SAY!" Jaune yelled as the boys piled on him...


"When I find him! I swear to the goddess! Skipping class? Really!?" Pyrrha thought stomping to her dorm room. She was not pleased, she and Jaune had just! Come to an understanding she and her sister team followed by Coco and Velvet for some reason. Just her to jump his bones. Pyrrha thoguht as she walked to her door. Where Jaune's scroll said he was. Ready to tear him a new one about responsibility as a team leader as she flung open the door.
"Jaune! I swear to-
Time broke.
"Pyrrha!"
"Jaune?!"
"Close the door!"
Jaune said as Pyrrha froze. Ther in front of her was Jaune.. her partner, crush, and future husband taking off a brilliant red skirt, wearing a tight! Pair of red panties that show of his impressive bugle barley contained in the tight red garments alone with a red bra and-
"Goldilocks-
"What the HELL!?" Yang asked as she walked in the room seeing Jaune as-
FISHT!
Yang gawked as a wall of blood hit her in the face, as Pyrrha fell back with a long of blood spurting from her nose coving Yang's face red and-
"Pyrrha!? What is wrong-
Weiss walked into the room she saw Jauen on the floor half undress in lacy red lingerie as her h nose erupted in a long thin line of blood as she instantly fell back and was knocked unconscious.
"Weiss!? Oh no! Pyrrha Weiss is-
Ruby said running up to he room as she looked at Jaune as she froze.
As her silver eyes went wide as saucers as she looked Jaune up and down as her legs buckled, as a hand shot up to cover her nose as red lines splattered out of her fingers.
"EEP! I'll come back later I'm so sorry!"
Ruby said pulling the drooling Weiss out of the room as Blake walked in and-
"Don't fucking move." Blake seethed as she pulled out her notebook and begna wiring so fast that Jaune smelled smoke!?
As along thin rel line fell for her nose as he sensed LUST!
In the air as-
CLICK!
"Velvet!?"
The rabbit faunus was suddenly in the room a large goofy smile plastered on her lips as she began taking rapid photos of Jaune.
CLICK! CLICK! CLICK!
"Velvet! Stop!"
Jaune said blushing brightly cursing Ren and Cardin to the depth of hell and back as-
"Sweet fucking Oum," Coco said walking in the room taking off her designer shades as-
"Jaune!? Where's Ren?" Nora asked trying an failing to avert her eyes. As she bleeds from the nose as-
"Nora! I'm right here!" Ren said walking out of the JNPR bathroom as Ren came out dressed in nothing but a pair of lacy black panties and a bra as-
"Bathroom. Now."
Nora sais picking up her boyfriend in one arm dragging him to the bathroom where the sound of a shower turning on followed by heavy loud thuds!
Filled the air as the walls began to shake and-
"I'm going- I'm going-
"Of fuck it! I'm going to go masturbate!"
Yang growled walking out of the room one hand all the way down her shorts-
"Not in our room!"
"Eat me Ice Queen! That or pipe down!"
Yang growled as Pyrrha stayed on her knees in a puddle giggling about Shota's? As'
"I- 'm just going to fuck you ok?" Coco asked walking up to Jaune as he blushed brightly as the girl picked him up easily as she carried him out of the room, one hand down her pants, the other massaging his crotch as she prepared for some stress relief...


"Why me?" Jaune said as he sat in the lovely lap of Coco as she rubbed his head slowly in the Beacon exterior as she let out a low hum.
"It's not that bad, is it?"
"They think I want to crossdress!"
Jaune whined as Coco giggled. "Hey it's not so bad now, is it? I mean I find it hot! The fact that you like tight fitting uniforms? I know Velvet has been putting your photos to good use. And I have more than a few ideas of what I'm going to do to you it those clothes." Coco said growling into his ear as Jaune gulped.
"But I don't want to crossdress!"
"Why not? You look good in it. You pull it off better than most girls to be fair." Coco said as Jaune felt Honesty bleed off of her as he sighed.
"But I don't want to crossdress!"
"Says the boy found in women's clothes wearing a dress with a closet full of lingerie." Coco deadpanned as Jaune blanched.
"I told you! That those clothes-
"Were not yours and Ren forced you to wear them? Come on Jaune. Do you really think that Ren could force you into those outfits by himself? I mean maybe if he had help but still! Where did he get the clothes? Ren doesn't go clothes shopping, and you are the one wearing them."
"He had lingerie on to!"

"Yeah. He had Nora's bra and panties not anyone else's so he had an excuse and you?" Coco said running a hand over Jaune's chest biting his ear making his gaps as she gripped his swelling crotch.
"You are going to make a lot of girls happy by wearing that you know?"
Coco asked as Jaune blessed brighter than Ruby's cloak as he looked down not believe that he had let Coco convince him to wear the special skirt she had made for him on rush order as the boy did look better in girls clothes as-

"Coco! I'm a guy! I don't want to wear a skirt!"
"It's just for me! No one else has to see you wear this!"
"We are in public!"
"So?"
"Coco!"
"Oh come on you look good in it, and besides! You get around a lot as is so what's the problem with giving some girls a show?"
Coco said in ahusy vocie as Jauen snarled.
"Hey! I'm not a slut Coco! Don't' call me that!"
Panic.
"Whoa! I never ever! Said you where! And I would never say that, and you know that." Coco said as her steely brown eye broke Jaune's glare as she sighed.
"I know... It' jsut I don't want rumors to start, I have my Mount Gleen mission coming up in two days and-
"Hey. No one is going to call you a slut. Not as long as I'm here ok?"
Coco said firmly as Jaune sighed hating wearing a skirt and dress but sighing as Coco was right. It was a one-time thing ad-
"If you think that this is a onetime thing then you are dumber then I thought. I mean for fuck's sake! We are wearing a skirt and a dress!? It's frilly! What the fuck is wrong with you!? Just tell Coco NO! God dammit!" Jaune's reflection said as Coco took off her shades and he caught it briefly as he gulped.
"So you don't think I'm a slut?"
"Not at all you are too cute to be a slut!" Coco sad making Jaune blush as she actually ran a finger in his hair and-
"Although! While I would not call you a slut that does not mean you don't get a little loose!"
Coco said as Jaune froze.
"Coco? what are you saying?"
"I'm saying that you are not a slut but! You are a Sweet, little unforgettable thing." Coco said grinning wolfishly as Jaune whined. "Coco!" Jaune said as the fashionista laughed as the boy pouted.


"Good night Jaune! Sleep tight!" Pyrrha said practically drooling on Jaunes ear as she gripped her boyfriend tight as Jaune moaned internally.

"I told you that this was not a one-time thing. Now, look at you! You're wearing you damn partners nightgown! I can't believe it, we are crossdressing. You even put on panties!"
"Shut up!"
"Oh, I will once you take off the damn women's underwear! I mean come on! You are making both of us look bad! And considering how we usually look like hot shit! That is quite the accomplishment! So that's saying something!"
"I couldn't say no! She said it was for our relationship and I just did it!"

"How does that make sense!? Just tell her NO!"

"I tried but I couldn't!"

Jaune thought as his shield sighed as Pyrrha gripped him tight from behind snuggled close to him whatever animosity formed between them was all but gone as Jaune sighed as Nora held Ren like a stuffed sloth into her chest as the two couple went to bead as Jaune closed his eyes...


"Hey! Wake up!"
"Mink?"
Jaune asked surprised opening his eyes as he was once again in the room that was not a room, as he sat on the glowing white floor that was not a floor as Mink was waiting standing above Jaune with a wry grin as Jaune looked at her incredulously.
"Mink? It's not Friday? Why am I here?" Jaune asked standing up as Mink smile. "We got business to discuss! I've been looking over you aide of being copasetic? And le'ts just say I think we need to talk! Also! You got fan mail!"

The demon said as Jaune groggily got up as he yawned.

"Mink? I'm summoned for fan mail?"

"That amongst other things look. I've given it some thought and I agree. We can both profit from the gamer and since I don't hate you. I'm going to take the first step and give you an incentive."

Mink said as she snapped her fingers and-

Inventory updated! New items acquired! Item type demonic!

Item one. Gunslingers belt buckle. Effects. Plus ten percent damage with ranged attacks. Plus ten critical chance. Puls twenty chance to hit.

Item two. Beserkers necklace. Effects. Plus fifteen percent damage. Puls ten to Dex. Perception. Minus five accuracy.

"Mink? These are?"
"This is a taste! I'm giving you items to help you in the gamer but! I expect you to pay me back in emotions-

"I will! I will! Thanks you so much! Mink we are going to be great partners!" Jaune thought as his plan came together. He was going to use Mink! Make the damn demon work for him! Not dancing to her damn tune anymore as he grinned.

"Mink I would like to see my stats please."

"You got it!" Mink said as she snapped her fingers as his stats popped up.

"Eighty? Form what?"

'You took down a fucking paladin. That's a lot of skill points so pick a category to put them in already!"

Mink said as Jaune rubbed his head thinking once before snapping his fingers.

"Put them all into luck," Jaune said as his luck changed to eighty-five and-

Conditions satisfied! New trait acquired! Trait acquired Critical banker!

"I don't fucking believe it... Yout did it! You crazy son of a bitch! You really did it!

Mink said as Jaune balked as the demon looked impressed.

"What did I do?"

"Jaune! You might have just won the gamer!"

Mink said as Jaune fought the urge to panic.
"Explain."

"Jaune. Critical baker is a rare trait! That needs luck and intelligence to be pulled off! Most people never put skill points into luck but you did! With this skill? No spoilers but before now your odds of winning where low! Like single digits low but now? I'd say you have a twenty percent chance of winning the gamer!"

"How!? What does it do?"

"Well let me explain luck to you. Luck is the general chance that shit will work out in your favor if all else failed. It also! Raises you odds for a weapon to critically hit an opponent by point five percent per luck point. Most enemies have weaknesses that if you attack you will deal double damage. AKA a critical hit. With most organic its usually the head, where the brain is but! Every weapon has a slight chance to deal double damage per attack on its own! You up this factor by luck!"

"Critical baker allows you to store critical hits!"

"Go on."

"Well by default it gives you minus ten percent critical chance but! For every attack not hit! That you make you gain plus one damage to your next critical attack! Not only that! You can store your critical hits! As you can have a mission that says do not critical hit an enemy until blank occasion. And unless you just headshot a guy you will not crit anyone and can store damage for one telling strike!"

Jaune almost fainted. This was it! He could fell the tide turning as he gulped.

"Anything else?"

"Yes. As the last part of my gift to you, I'm giving you a free trait as a friend."

Train acquired! Commando. Plus twenty percent damage with all double-handed ranged weaponry.

"Mink! THis is amazing! Thank you-

"Don't! Thank me! This is not free. I'm going to take my pound of flesh from you by the end of this meeting so don't you worry about me!"

"Fine! But one last thing. Can I raise my stress to a hundred?"
"Why in the hell would you want to do that!?"

"Simple. You said that if I raise my stress to a hundred something happens right?"
"If that happens you must pass a Stress test. If you pass it you get a Virtue. If you fail an affliction."
" I want you to raise my stress to a hundred tomorrow."
"Not saying no but why?"

" I'm feeling lucky," Jaune said as Mink grinned at him.

"Cocky? I like it! Ok! You want to live dangerously? You got it! I just added a Blood blossom to your inventory! It will raise your stress to a hundred by the end of tomorrow! I hope your luck pays off!"

"Oh, it will. I know it will. I'm going to win this thing Mink and nothing will stand in my way!"
"Except for the thong right? I mean that can't feel comfortable on your balls."

Mink asked as Jaune felt like he was sucker punched.
"Mink!"
"What? it's great! You are cross-dressing! I'm fucking crying! I'm in tears over here!" The thing said laughing so hard tears fell from her face as Jaune pouted.

"It's not funny!"

"Yes, it is!"

"No, it's not!"

"It's great!"

"There is nothing funny about this!"

"No Jaune. You know that there is nothing funny about? When a mortal tries to use me."

Mink said as Jaune felt a bone-chilling cool fall over his spine as Mink glared at him.

"Mink? What are-

"Oh please Jaune! Don't act like I don't know. You are trying to use me for your own goals and wait! Before you get all mad don't worry! I like it! And I respect you for it. No hard feelings about this either way but! I can't just let a mortal use me without having a little fun with them you know?"
"Mink listen I-

"Calm down meat sack! I'm not angry with you! Not at all. I just am going to use my ability my only! One and give Weiss a new fetish ok?"

"Are you going to give someone a rape fetish!?"
"What? Oh god's no! I'm not a monster! And besides Pyrrha already has a rape fetish, not Weiss so to give her one too would feel a bit redundant if you ask me."
"Pyrrha has a rape fetish?"

"Yup."

"Go figure...

"Any who! I'm going to give her one! Fetish and that's it! Our deal still stands and otherwise, we are still on good terms!"

"Fine. Can I see her fetish?"

"Of course! You have a bond with Weiss so why not? Take a look at her stats."

Time stope. Reality bent and shattered into a thousand pieces as Jaune's mouth fell open as he turned to the demon as in the room that was not a room. On the floor that was not a floor in a place where time and space ceased to exist a breeze blew between the two as Jaune glared at Mink. As every last ounce of his body want to give her the most brutal verbal thrashing he could but in certain times only his actions spoke as he said three words.

"I hate you," Jaune said bluntly glaring at Mink with all of his willpower focusing his hat into his cerulean eyes as the thing smiled at him.
"Fuck with me Arc!"


An: Another day another chapter! In this one, we got to see Jaune and Blake infiltrate the fang with Ren. Chase Roman up and down Vale. Jaune goes on a death quest, decks! Pyrrha something that I think a lot of people might like and! We get to see him and Mink get along. Also! Ironwood is in Beacon with Cinder!? As his student so that' some shit waiting to happen! Jaune met Cardin and well... you saw how that went. Jaune finally! Has some new item's and Mink is... Well, she's a demon!

And as far as demonic interference this is low on the totem pole and she is probably just trolling but hey! You didn't expect her to help for free, did you? Anyways this chapters done. We got cover art. Jaune Torchiwck is next and oh boy! That chapter is going otto be ROUGH.

Anywho thank you for reading and have a good day.

Ps. If you read Bastion the fic that this is linked to you will get the reference! Throw in this one! As this story just starts to mess with the other one. And if you don't read Bastion check it out! If you don't like the idea of Summer and you like meatgrinders! You will love the last chapter!

Pss. On a side not. I've said this before and I'll say this again. I started writing this story to get better at writing sex scenes. Ir's a big writing exercise on violence and sex and I think I'm getting better! I really do! But! My friend gave me an idea! She told me to go on Tumblr and open an ask blog. Just open a blog and write about smutty RWBY stories online so I did! I thought hey I can do this! So I dece to say I will write rough RWBY sex stories with no real limit besides no death and no cheating and I told the internet to do it's worst!

Rule one of life. NEVER. EVER. Tell people online to do their worst... I thought I was well versed in smut but DEAR GOD. I said I would write everything but FUCK! Some people have some freak kinks! I mean I've learned three things writing pure smut online.

One. Futanari is a much more popular genre than I ever expected. People like chicks with dicks. Guy's girls and whenever people identify as these days. I mean I've written so much I looked at a fan art of Ruby and accidentally said where is her cock? Out loud when I was thankfully alone.

Two. People have ships in RWBY and they are HIGHLY opinionated about them. They will fight about it, it will be messy.

Three, a lot of people have rape fetishes, not judging! But I need to not say I'll write anything online it's bad for my health. Anyways rant over. Next chapter is the last before the Breach! Monty Going to give it to you! Stay tuned! And now? Omake.


Omake. The darkest Remnant part fifteen. The journey home.

Defeat. Loss did not come well to Oscar. Not now not ever. As the noble walked into his private quarters in the town bar. The foray into the farmstead was a disaster! The husks just kept rising from the grave! It was madness! No matter how many they killed they just kept getting back up! In the end, they were forced to flee for their lives which they almost lost! And now? Now Oscar had to wait. Jaune and Ren where getting treated by Velvet who was being healed by Watts and Ciel.

After this latest skirmish, he was going to have to take a new untested team of Yang, Pyrrha, Ciel and maybe Ruby? Into the Warrens. There were rumors of some massive unnerving eldritch monstrosity made of living pulsating flesh that needed to be put to the torch.
"Ahh, the flesh. A particularly nasty bit of work on that one I remember when I first began summoning. You know that pigs made the best conduits for beings from other realms?" Ozpin asked the specter sipping its mug as Oscar frowned.

"Not now! I just want-
"Oh! I'm sorry! I didn't mean to pry!" A shy voice said as Oscar turned to see Ruby standing at the door with a tray of cookies in hand.
"Ruby? What are you doing here?'
"I brought you some cookies! You look tired and I thought you could use a snack after your last mission."

Ruby said as the beautiful woman put the tray of treat down on his study closing the door to the dim bar noises as she did.

"My thanks."

"Oh, it's nothing! I jsut wanted to say sorry. I was rude to you when we first met calling you an NPC and saying you needed to be brought back to town! Sorry... Forgive me?"

"Sure. Why not?"
The noble said sighing heavily he was tired, too to talk let alone to be mad at Ruby for any real period of time as he just wanted to sleep and-

FWAT!'

Something heavy crashed into the window with enough force to nearly break the glass, as Ruby had her crossbow up in a moment as a large black shadow appeared outside the window as a mosquito? The size of a cat! Floated lazily outside as-

"Oh no. The Baroness is here...

Ozpin said in a terrified tone as the gohst trembled as Oscar went to question him before a deafening whine of insect wings came as he saw a massive shadow encroach on the town as a chill ran down his spine as he felt his blood began to prick and tingle as if it was on fire as he knew that as bad as the situation was now his life had just gotten much, much worse...
