Stay Home Troubles

.

.

A 16-year-old Jack Rose just took three-hour nap, ever since Ruby and Weiss left to Atlas for their honeymoon, Jack was gruelingly coming down the flight of stairs and making his trek towards the kitchen. Once in the kitchen, Jack took out a bowl, grabbed his favorite cereal brand and pour the cereal into his bowl, then proceeded to the fridge to grab milk and then pour the white liquid into the bowl. He sat down and began eating his cereal, but his peaceful breakfast was interrupted by a loud slam at the kitchen island. He looked up to see the source of the disruption and was mortified. Danielle, Elizabeth's crush, and Jack's long-time enemy. She must've come over while he was taking a nap.

"Hello Jackson," she said sweetly.

Jack cringed at the use of his full name with the sweet tone, "Dani, what the hell are you doing here?"

"Aww, is that any way to speak to your guest?" pouted Danielle.

"No . . . but for you I make an exception," replied Jack

Danielle put her hand over chest and gasped out loud, "Why would you treat me like that?" she asked.

Jack simply stated, "You're a snobby bitch that doesn't respect anyone that comes from lower income . . . and you especially discriminate against faunus, which is not cool in my book,"

Danielle scowled and before she could form a counter argument, Elizabeth stepped into the kitchen and literally stepped into the conversation, "Hey Dani, why don't you go the living room, I brought out my new weapon design I'm going to be using in Beacon this fall,"

Danielle scowl grew at Jack, but it turned to a smile when she turned to Elizabeth, "Sure, I'll see you there," she left the kitchen area and the Rose siblings were left alone.

As soon as Danielle was out of the kitchen, Elizabeth turned to Jack with anger written all over her face, which intensified after Jack said, "What's your problem, got your panties in a twist,"

"Can't you be nice to her for crying out loud, at least civil," growled Elizabeth.

Jack was contemplating the question to which he responded, "No," and he ate another spoonful of cereal.

Elizabeth fumed, "Fine, just stay in your room,"

"What are you, my mother?" exclaimed Jack to Elizabeth.

She smirked and left the kitchen area, and joined Danielle, Jack just scowled. Once he was finished with breakfast, he cleaned the dishes he used, when he left the kitchen area and saw both Elizabeth and Danielle sitting on the couch, talking, more precisely, Danielle talking and Elizabeth listening.

Truth be told, Jack has big issues with Danielle, as stated before she considers people who are low-income beneath her and faunus, which was ironic because his mothers' like Danielle and they both are in full support of faunus rights and they have many friends within the faunus community, including Blake Wukong nee Belladonna leader of the White Fang (reform). Plus, Danielle is very narcissistic, very; which appalled him. He's worry about his sister, he's worry that she would never see Danielle for who she truly is, he's worry that Danielle will use Elizabeth affection to her benefit and it will hurt Elizabeth.

Jack was snapped out of his thoughts after Elizabeth laughed at a joke Danielle said. Jack frowned, he must end this friendship, he must show Elizabeth what kind person Danielle is. He hurried back upstairs and grabbed his scroll, he found the number he was looking for and dialed said number.

"Yo," answered Ben.

"Hey dude, listen, you got plans for today?" asked Jack.

"Nope, why?" Ben said.

Jack smirked, "Do you want to come over, Danielle is here and I would like take her down a few pegs,"

Jack could hear Ben's smirk over the phone, "I'm on my way,"


A few minutes later, he received a call from her mother to see if they were okay and all. An hour after her call, Ben came over, thankfully, Danielle and Elizabeth left to go to Neo Vale and so they spent their time waiting for the girls to come back by playing video games in the living room.

When they returned, both Elizabeth and Danielle held mortified looks on their faces at the presence of Ben and Jack smirked at their expression.

"Danielle! I didn't know you'll be here," Ben said.

Danielle scowled, "Benjamin,"

"Jack . . . can I talk with you," said Elizabeth.

"Sure," Jack smirked.

They left to go to the hallway, and Elizabeth furiously turned to Jack and asked, "What is he doing here?"

"Whoa, calm down sis, I invited him seeing that you could have a friend over," explained Jack to a very angry Elizabeth.

"But why does it have to be him, of all your friends, why did it have to be him," Elizabeth said frantically.

Jack crossed his arms, "He's my best friend, and you don't get tell me about who I invite . . . what about all your friends, why did it have to be her?"

Elizabeth had a questioning expression on her face, "What's your problem with Danielle? She's my best friend,"

Jack scoffed, "Best friend? Her? Elizabeth, her only best friend is herself. Why can't you see how self-absorbed she's with herself? She's also very classicist and against faunus rights,"

"She's not! She might have been, but not anymore," said Elizabeth.

Again, he scoffed at her statement, "Well, we'll see,"

He left to return to their guest, Elizabeth huffed before following him back to the living room.


"So, Ben, after you graduate in two years, are you able to go to Beacon? Are you able to afford it?" asked Danielle sweetly and smirking towards Ben, to which he just clenched his fist and smiled in return.

"I am. My family makes enough money for me to go to Beacon," Ben responded.

Danielle merely shrugged and was about to take sip of her drink when she whispered, "But not enough like mine or Liz's family,"

Before Ben could counter her insult, Jack beat him to the punch, "Do you get a sense of satisfaction by putting people down simply because of their economic background,"

"No . . . I'm just stating the fact. That we are superior," stated Danielle proudly.

Jack and Ben just scowled and Elizabeth spoke up after finding her voice, "How can you say that we all are the same,"

Danielle responded by saying, "With money you can achieve a lot, you can influence and invest in many things,"

"But you ignore everyone else, you can use the money to help people reach their potential and nurture them, invest on someone with a low-income background that has something new and bold that can change the world," countered Jack.

Danielle got up and started walking around, "You give them a lot and then they become dependent on our handouts, also a lot of people tend to over exaggerate their skills and we lose those investments to con men,"

"That happens as well when you invest in other people, rich or not. Don't just think the poor will con you, rich people will con you as well," replied Jack.

Danielle had a scowl on her face when she didn't have retort, but with that, Jack pressed his attack and said, "Answer me something else,"

Jack looked at Elizabeth to see if she's listening and he continued, "Do you also get satisfaction when you put faunus people down as well,"

Elizabeth eye's darted towards Danielle, with hope in her eyes that she answers with a good response. Danielle was also conflicted, she hated the faunus, but she wanted to be in good relationship with Elizabeth.

"Damnit, she never had a problem with my views on the faunus before, eh, makes her so naïve," Danielle thought to herself.

"Yes, they're such filthy animals. Your parents are making a big mistake, supporting them, one day, they'll return that generosity by killing all of us. The only solution is make them bend to our will . . . kill them all," responded Danielle with a stern look on her face.

Both Ben and Jack hold looks of disgust and anger, but Elizabeth had a look of betrayal and sadness.

"You're sick," Ben simply said.

Danielle shrugged and said, "We are superior to them, we should show our strength, not help them,"

Elizabeth got up and a dark look was etched on her face, she pointed to the door, "Get out. Get out now,"

Danielle faintly smirk, "You're a child Elizabeth, so naïve and full of hope,"

"You were never really my friend where you? You just wanted access to my parents, because they had much more influence than you and your family," said Elizabeth.

Danielle chuckled before answering, "You were so easy to do my bidding,"

Elizabeth was shocked and croaked out, "What?"

Danielle laugh out loud, "You did want I always told you to do with no question, you loved me so much that you do anything for me,"

Elizabeth's skin turned deathly pale, "You knew, that I had a crush on you,"

Danielle only smirked, "Yes, and as soon as I did, it was easy to control you,"

After Danielle said that, Elizabeth screamed in rage and started to assault Danielle, and Danielle was caught off guard, she was able to block some of Elizabeth's punches, but Elizabeth was able to unbalance Danielle in which she fell to the floor. But before she was able to attack Danielle even further, both Jack and Ben got Elizabeth off Danielle.

Jack turned to Danielle and said, "You better leave,"

Danielle, with a shocked look on her face, nodded and scrambled out of Rose's residence.

Elizabeth started to cool off and got out of the hold Ben and Jack had her in, tears where streaming down her eyes and in a choked out voice said, "I'm going to bed,"

Jack's eyebrows rose, it was only six in the evening, but didn't say anything after seeing how sad and angry she looked.

"Alright, you want to bring you dinner?" he asked. To which Elizabeth didn't respond and was climbing the stairs towards her room.


The next day, Elizabeth stayed in her room for the entire day, Jack was worried about her sister, he checked on her throughout the day, even Max and Alex tried to cheer her up, but nothing worked, she was emotionally dead. The following day, it was the same in the morning, and the Rose siblings, except for Elizabeth, were cleaning the house, getting ready for their mother's return from their anniversary. By noon, Elizabeth hasn't left her room, and this time Jack decided to do something about it.

Jack went upstairs, straight to Elizabeth's room and knocked on her door, when she didn't answer, he went in anyway, he saw her sister lying down reading a book and headphones in her ear. She stood up, her face turned red in rage and she furiously took her headphones out of her ears.

"What the hell! Haven't you heard of knocking you ass," she said.

Jack crossed his arms and replied, "I did, but you didn't listen,"

She scowled, "You still shouldn't barge in here like that,"

"Well I had to talk to you,"

"About what," said Elizabeth now standing up.

"About what happen with Danielle,"

She scowled again at her brother and turned away from him, "I don't want to talk about it,'

Jack shook his head and responded, "We have to, you need to get out of this slump,"

Elizabeth didn't respond to Jack so he continued, "Hey, I've been rejected before and trust me it hurts. But we have to move on, besides you're better off not dating that bitch, let alone being her friend,"

With a faint voice, she said, "Why did you have to do that,"

Jack just stared at her in confusion, she then turned to face him again, "I would've done anything for her, I was happy, she made me happy. Why did you have to invite Ben over and cause this damn mess?!"

"Okay, she in deep denial, I got to snap her out of it," Jack said to himself.

He sighed and responded, "She used you for crying out loud! You said that you would've done anything for, then you'll basically to her every bidding. You'll basically be her bitch,"

Elizabeth growled, "I'm no one's 'bitch',"

Jack chuckled and responded, "You were crying how you would've done anything for her, ergo a bitch,"

After he said the last part, Jack was thrown out of Elizabeth's room and landed hard on the wall and he then fell to the floor. He groaned and looked up to she Elizabeth's hand stretch out with a glyph formed in her hand, he looked behind him and saw cracks and a big dent on the wall.

"That was quick, it takes a while to get her this angry," Jack said internally.

He got up and groaned, he knew what he was about to say was going to drive her into full rage, but he needs to show her how bad Danielle was and . . . he wanted to piss her off.

"She hates faunus, you know that right, she even admitted killing them all for one option. But of course, being her bitch, you don't mind that either don't you," he smirked, and she grew angrier and was about to unleash another force push, but this time Jack was ready. He used his speed semblance and got out of the way in time and went down stairs. He saw the twins and he ordered them to hide in Ruby's workshop.

Elizabeth came down and was glaring at Jack, he again said, "She never cared about you Liz, can't you see that! I did this so I can show you what kind of person she is, I'm sorry it caused you pain, but I'm not sorry as well, she was never good for you and never was, accept it!"

Elizabeth howled in rage and she brought her two hands together and a glyph formed, Jack just stood there, his arms crossed over his face waiting for the blast. It was a bigger blast than he anticipated and he was thrown across the living room and landed on the dining table, splitting it in two. He groaned in pain and rolled over he looked up to see Elizabeth, she was panting heavily and when her breathing started to even out, she put her arms down, then soon, she started crying and kneeled to the floor.

Jack sighed and groaned, he got up and made his way through until he reached where Elizabeth was sobbing. He kneeled down and said, "I'm sorry Liz, I truly am. Danielle . . . she wasn't the one okay. I get it, the first crush is hard to deal with, but you'll make it through, and you'll find someone better, someone that does deserve you,"

Elizabeth's sobbed lessen and spoke, "I'm . . . I'm sorry for the attacks I sent you. . . . And you were right, I was just so blind to see her for who she truly is,"

Jack sighed and put his arm around Elizabeth's shoulders and brought her close to comfort her, "It's fine, I know how it feels to be rejected by your crush . . . god knows how many of my crushes turned me down,"

Elizabeth leans in her brother and chuckled at Jack's statement. "No girl wants us," she said.

"There's a girl for me and a girl for you, I'll be next to you every step of the way until then," Jack responded. Elizabeth smiled and closed her eyes.

After a couple of minutes later, they heard the front door lock click and both Jack and Elizabeth opened their eyes and horror, they stood up once they heard Weiss exclaimed, "WHAT THE HELL HAPPEN!?"

They were fucked.
