(Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto or RWBY)

Naruto, once again, finally accepted his defeat to the one enemy he has never won against.

Sunlight.

With a moan and a grunt, Naruto woke up and tossed his blanket off him then did his morning stretches. Afterwards, he noticed someone off to the corner of the room had a fate far worse than him. An eighteen-year old male with magenta eyes and a streak of hair with same color and the rest of it being black, was being woken up by a hyperactive orange-haired girl with a pale face and turquoise eyes. How he managed to act so nonchalant about it was beyond Naruto.

Naruto laughed at their antics as he walked to the locker room along with Jaune, whom he had woken up on his way there. After changing in that locker room, they went to another one, the one in which their weapons were stored. Jaune told Naruto that he didn't have to come due to him not needing to place his weapons in a locker with his ability to summon them, but Naruto insisted that he come with Jaune saying he had nothing better to do. They walked in to see Ruby talking to Yang with an angry look on her face.

"My dearest sister Yang, are you implying that you don't want to be on the same team as me!"

"Sorry to interrupt, but if I may ask, what is going on here?" asked Naruto as Jaune walked away to find his locker.

"Yang doesn't want to be on the same team as me!" yelled Ruby.

"Judging by what I've heard about Ozpin's leadership abilities, he will most likely be coordinating our team placements or let fate do it, both ways, we will probably get the teammates of our choice." This made Ruby slightly depressed, but what he didn't expect was for Yang to be saddened as well.

"Hey Yang why does that make you sad, I thought you wouldn't mind." Yang looked up.

"But I was hoping to be put on the same team as you" she pouted then blushed furiously after realizing what she said. This made Naruto stare at her for a but before giving a blinding smile, to which made Yang's heart flutter .

"I hope we're put on the same team as well Yang, it would make any team I'm on, the best I could've hoped for." stated Naruto.

"But what if I was put on your team?" said Ruby while blushing which didn't go unnoticed by Yang.

"Even better" said Naruto while never once breaking his smile, which also made Ruby wonder what this odd feeling was in her chest.

"I'm gonna go do my morning routine before the initiation starts, see you guys" he said while walking away. Yang turned to her sister.

"There's something different about him than the other boys I've seen here"

"Yeah, he smiles a lot but only the ones like he did now are real, like he's trying to be happy but doesn't really know how" said Ruby with a frown on her face.

"You notice it too, well whatever is wrong, he'll tell us when he's ready" said Yang while she turned to walk away.

"Hey sis, have you ever felt something weird when you're talking to him, have you ever felt, well I don't know something strange in your chest." she said to which Yang turned around to look at her surprised, she then smiled.

"Yes, and I promise to you, I won't lose" she said then walked away, leaving behind her confused sister.

(A few minutes earlier with Jaune)

"Damn it, I forgot my locker number" he said to himself as he walked away from Naruto and the others. As he walked around trying to remember his locker, he saw Weiss trying to convince a very beautiful red-head to form a team with her, and was trying comically to which he snickered slightly.

"Something funny to you scraggly" said Weiss with an irate glare.

"You are, snowflake" he countered which elicited a giggle from the red-head.

"How dare you!" she shrieked indignantly. Jaune chose to ignore Weiss' outbursts in favor of greeting the girl next to her.

"Hello, my name is Jaune Arc, pleased to meet you" he said while holding out his hand to her.

"My name is Pyrrha Nikos, nice to meet you too" said Pyrrha, whose name Jaune recognized.

"I've heard of you before, it'll be cool going to Beacon with you, well I've gotta go find my locker, see ya" he said before walking off.

'He's probably the first person who hasn't fawned over me after learning who I was' she thought in surprise.

"All first years report to Beacon Cliff " stated the speaker.

"Let's get this over with" sighed Pyrrha while tuning out Weiss.

(30 minutes: Beacon Cliff)

Everybody was lined up on the launch pads, awaiting the orders of Ozpin and Glynda. There were a few of those near Naruto whom he could sense an aura of arrogance from, one in particular was a teen who had a chest plate with the symbol of something akin to a faclon on it. Ozpin and Gynda finally came and gave them instructions and details.

"Today you will be receiving partners" said Glynda.

"The partners you receive today will be your partners for the next four years so choose wisely, that being said, the first person you make eye contact with after landing will be your partner" finished Ozpin.

"What!" shrieked Ruby.

"Your goal is to get to the northern part of the forest and grab a relic from the temple, any Questons?" he asked, and no one raised their hand. "Good." And with that, the pads started launching off one by one, until it finally got to Naruto who winked at Glynda before launching off towards leaving behind the slightly annoyed yet slightly blushing witch. While in the air he tried to focus on the his velocity and the height of the trees. He finally saw the tree he could make contact with upcoming on his right, created his scythe, and thrust the blade into the tree while thrusting his weight at a downward angle causing him to spiral downwards along the tree until he hit the ground and rolled off while dispersing his weapon.

"Nailed it" he said to no one in particular as he walked away from the tree to the northern part of the forest. After a few minutes of walking, Naruto felt Jaune's aura capacity skyrocket, it was like Lee after releasing a few chakra gates! After a few seconds, his aura died down a bit. ' I'll ask him later but I've got to keep moving.' After a few minutes, Naruto stopped to sense the signatures of the others. He found that all of them were paired already with Pyrrha paired with Jaune, Yang with Blake, and Ruby with Weiss, all of them were headed for the northern area. There was something that both confused and worried him, Ruby's and Weiss' signatures weren't on the ground, they were in the sky, on a Nevermore to be exact.

He hurried to the temple to see Ruby falling towards the ground. To get to her faster, he released one of the five gravity restraints that he has placed on him using the Rinnegan, but a downside to this is that you have to activate the dojutsu to increase or decrease the levels of gravity. However, Naruto was too enveloped in saving Ruby to remember this fact and dashed off high speeds to catch her, which he succeded in. Ruby looked to see who her savior was and although she was happy to see Naruto, she was shocked to see his right eye was entirely purple with multiple rings coming from the center.

"Naruto, what the hell happened with your right eye?!" she asked to which Naruto finally realized his Rinnegan was activated and immediately closed his eye while putting a hand over it as it was being deactivated.

"Listen Ruby, what you saw, you cannot tell anybody else. It's one of my biggest secrets and it relates to my past. Do you understand? Can I trust you with that information?"

"Of course you can Naruto, what friend would I be if you couldn't trust me" she replied while giving a soft smile.

"Thank you" he said while giving a smile of his own as they walked back to the others. When they got back to the others, they heard the sound of breaking trees. They turned to the noise, and saw something that made them all sweat drop. The orange-haired girl whose name was Nora, was riding on the back of an Ursa while yelling, "Yeehaw!"

"Nora… please don't ever do that again" said the male with Magenta eyes, whose name was Lie Ren. When Ren turned back to Nora she was no longer there, she had already left and picked up a golden chess piece from one of the pillars. Afterwards, she sang while the chess piece seemed to teleport to different places on her as she danced.

"Did that girl just ride an Ursa?" questioned Blake.

"I-" Yang was about to speak until they heard the sound of more breaking trees and turned to see Jaune and Pyrrha running from a Deathstalker towards them. Ruby ran from Naruto's side to join Yang and was going to embrace her.

"Ruby!"

"Yang!"

"Nora!" yelled Nora as she appeared between the two.

"Did she just run all the way here with a Deathstalker following her" said Blake at which point Yang snapped.

"THAT'S IT, I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE, CAN WE JUST WAIT TWO SECONDS BEFORE SOMETHING CRAZY HAPPENS!"

"Yang, please calm down, now's not the time to get upset." he said while placing a hand on her shoulder which visibly calmed her down, much to Ruby's shock. Ruby looked to see something that surprised her greatly.

"Uh sis" she said which made Yang slump her shoulders in defeat as everyone looked up to see Weiss still holding onto the Nevermore's claw.

"She's gonna fall."

"She'll be fine."

"She's falling."

Naruto was going to help when they saw something odd happened. A visible white glow surrounded Weiss as she neared the ground, which slowed her descent. They all looked around to see the source of it, and another white light caught there eye. They looked over to see the light emanating from Jaune's hand as he and Pyrrha ran. The Deathstalker finally caught up to them enough to smack them away with one of its pincers. Despite getting hit by a Deathstalker, the second Jaune hit the ground hit the ground in front of the others, he leaped to his feet and started jumping around in joy.

"Yes, I can finally use it, thank you so much Pyrrha!" he said as he pulled her into a hug and twirled her around whilst yelling "thank you" over and over again until he realized what he was doing and put her down and replaced the thank you with sorry, while blushing furiously.

"And what is it that you can do now thanks to Pyrrha, Jaune?" asked Naruto.

"I can finally use my semblance, because Pyrrha unlocked my aura, I've always known what it was, but I never had enough aura to maintain it because I only had access to a small part of it" he said while gesturing to Pyrrha, who was still blushing due to Jaune's antics.

"What is you're semblance exactly?" asked Pyrrha who managed to regain slight control of her blush.

"My semblance is gravity" he stated proudly, which made Naruto's eyes widen before he gave a slight chuckle.

"What's so funny Naruto?" asked Jaune.

"It's nothing Jaune, don't worry about it." he said which didn't convince Jaune but he let it go to face the problem at hand. That being said, they turn around to see Ruby running towards the Deathstalker who smacked her away once in range. After that, Ruby ran from the Deathstalker towards the group only to be pinned to the ground by a Nevermore's feather.

"Ruby, NO!" shouted Yang as the Deathstalker got ready to pierce it using its golden stinger. Ruby closed her eyes awaiting her fate, but she never felt it come and opened her eyes to see Weiss in front of her along with a frozen stinger.

"You are childish, dimwitted, hyperactive, and don't even get me started on your fighting style… but I suppose I can be a little… difficult at times too, but if we're going to do this, then we're going to have to do this together. If you quit trying to show off, I'll be… nicer." said Weiss.

"I wasn't trying to show off, I was trying to show you I can do this" said Ruby.

"You're fine." after saying that she walked away and Naruto and Yang were at her side in a second.

"I'm so happy you're okay" said Yang while giving Ruby a bear hug.

"Me too" said Naruto while giving Ruby a more gentle hug which earned a blush from her and a jealous glare from Yang, they then walked back to the others to come up with a plan.

"Guys, the Nevermore is circling back" said Jaune with urgency in his voice.

"Our objective was to grab a relic and make it back, that's it" said Weiss.

"So we live to fight another day, sounds like a reasonable plan" said Jaune.

"Be warned though, the grimm will most likely follow us there" said Naruto making everyone nod in understanding.

They all grabbed relics leaving none left on the pillars, then headed to the base of the cliff. After leaving the trees, they walked upon some sort of stone ruins, as soon as they neared the cliff, the Nevermore flew over their heads and landed on a pillar while the Deathstalker burst through the trees behind them. Nora distracted the Nevermore using her Magnild's grenade launcher form to allow the others a chance to get to the stone bridge. The Deathstalker quickly moved up behind Nora until Ren distracted it by slashing it across its pface, surprising it, while Weiss grabbed Nora and jumped away by using a glyph. They quickly sprinted over to the bridge while Pyrrha gave them cover. After most of them got to the further side of the bridge, the Nevermore crashed into the bridge, separating Pyrrha, Blake, and Ren from the others.

'Shit, if I don't get over there they could die… great, this will probably bring up a few questions' thought Naruto as he unhenged on of his tails increasing his power. Jaune noticed his allies on the other bridge and sprinted towards the edge of his side while forming an anti-gravitational field around allowing him to jump extremely high. Once he was around 30 ft above the head of the Deathstalker, he increased the gravity around him to multiple times of Earth's gravity and slammed his blade directly into its head which allowed it to piece its shell, but not quite kill it. It thrashed about in pain, knocking Jaune off of it. Naruto noticed the opening that Jaune made and jumped even higher than he did on pure strength alone. He was just over the head of the Deathstalker when he thrust his weight downwards into a dropkick which was strong enough to shatter the bridge under it. The force was enough to launch the others over him and onto land while Naruto pulled out Crocea Mors and jumped off of its head landing just in front of the others.

"Here you go Jaune" said Naruto while passing him his sword.

"Hey Naruto."

"Yeah Jaune."

"Can I ask you a question?"

"You technically just did but you can ask another."

"HOW THE HELL DO YOU HAVE TWO TAILS!" he said which turned everyone's attention to him. (only those that were on his side of the bridge)

" *sigh* It's a very long story that we can't really talk about right now. Hell, Ozpin probably saw this and is going to make me explain, you can hear it from me later. Alright"

"Fine" after he said that, they heard the sound of a scream/roar mixed with the repetitive sound of sniper rifle rounds being fired and turned to see Ruby running along the mountain using Weiss' glyphs, while dragging the Nevermore with her. After she reached the the top, its head got stuck on a protruding rock which allowed her to fire one more shot, severing its head. There was only one thought coming from everybody at that time.

'Holy shit'

(Later on)

" Russel Thrush, Cardin Winchester, Dove Bronzewing, Sky Lark. The four you retrieved the black bishop pieces, and from this day forward you will be team Cardinal (CRDL), led by Cardin Winchester. Jaune Arc, Lie Ren, Pyrrha Nikos, Nora Valkyrie . The four of you retrieved the white rook pieces, from this day forward, you will be team Juniper (JNPR), led by Jaune Arc." he said getting a bewildered look from Jaune who got a congratulatory punch in the arm from Pyrrha, nearly making him fall by being caught off guard.

"Ruby Rose, Blake Belladonna, Weiss Schnee, Naruto Uzumaki-Namikaze, and Yang Xiao Long, the five of you retrieved the white knight pieces, from this day forward you will work together as team Ruby, (RWUBY)(AN: Forgive me if the name sounds stupid or is not to your liking, but the name is technically correct in terms of pronunciation.) and you shall be led by Ruby Rose."

"I'm so proud of you" said Yang while giving her sister a hug.

"It looks like things are shaping up to be an… interesting year, oh and Naruto could you please see me and Glynda in my office, I believe we have… things to discuss" said Ozpin as he and Naruto walked off.

AN: And that's it for Chapter 3, I hoped you enjoyed it, and once this chapter is posted I will be closing the poll so the results at the top are finalized. Don't worry though, I made sure that I typed in the results just before I post it so they're accurate.

Side Note: With all due respect, the poll is where you post your preferred pairings, not the reviews, so please stop.
