Pyrrha woke up first this time, and opened her eyes slowly to notice she was hugging her fiancée, Jaune Arc. She smiled and gently bit her lips before resting her head on his chest, listening to his heartbeat and breathing. She looked the messy room around after that one pillow fight, and suppressed a giggle to see everyone sleeping around. Tia was on her nest, just the tail on sight, while Ren and Nora were sprawled together in her bed, though not in the romantic and sweet way the champion was. Nora was pressing her feet on the poor boy's face, but he seemed to not mind. Yang and Blake were on her bed, the catgirl snuggled on the busty brawler, her head on the blonde girl's soft pillows. Ruby and Weiss were adorably cuddling on Ren's bed, and Pyrrha just found them to be the second most adorable thing on the room, after Tia.
The Spartan sighed happily, and remembered that everything in her life was now as she wanted to be. By week's end she would 'marry' Jaune and…
MARRY! IT MEANS WE WILL HAVE S-S-S-S-S-S… IT IS TOO SOON!
She started to panic as she remembered what it meant to 'marry' Jaune during the Festival, and that meant a level of intimacy that she was eager to have with him, but also scared her as that would be something she never did before. She feared what could happens, and feared that after finally having such nice progress with him, that rushing things would put everything she worked so hard for in danger.
But there was Tia, and Pyrrha would do everything to protect her daughter. But she also didn't want it to be done just because of the dragonet, but because she was deeply in love with the knight. She knew he confessed to her out of his true feelings, but she didn't want to do anything that could put any doubt on their feelings. She was panicking hard when soft lips touched hers, calming her down completely.
"Thinking about the Festival?" Jaune whispered, and she nodded. "If you don't want to, we can talk with Ozpin or my family and find another way. I love you, so I'll do whatever I can to be sure you're happy."
"I love you too." She answered simply, and they kissed again, more passionately, but as silently as possible. She felt his arms around her, and felt desire for the lovable boy that pushed her from the cage fame created around her and showed her true happiness. Her fears were dispelled just like that. "I love you so much."
"Then, we just need to do things on our own pace and GAHH!" Jaune was cut off by Tia, the small girl flew from her next and was hugging tight on her parents.
"Sweet, what happened?" Pyrrha asked as she noticed she was afraid.
"I had a bad dream… Everyone was running from me, even you two…" She said with teary eyes. The two teens answered by hugging her back, caressing her head.
"We would never be afraid of you, honey. You're our precious daughter." Jaune said first, and Tia stared at them. Pyrrha nodded in agreement, and Tia smiled and purred as they caressed her head.
"Pancakes!" Nora yelled as she kicked Ren hard, dropping him out of bed while everyone woke up.
Blake jumped of Yang as soon as she noticed where her head was, startling the brawler and make her fall of bed too. Ruby and Weiss jumped off bed at the same time, both girls blushing madly. Jaune, Pyrrha and Tia stared at the scene as they sat down, and started laughing out loud of the scene.
…
"Ozpin! Are you here to free me? I have being here for so long… I even finished my fourth doctorate thesis!" Oobleck said as he pointed to the scribbles in the walls. Ozpin was impressed he did all this. "It has being years since I saw the Sun…"
"Bart, you're here just for a few days. And you can leave anytime as long as you promise to leave Tia Arc Nikos alone. Look, if you promise, I'll talk with her parents to allow you to do some more indirect research." Ozpin said as he sipped from his mug. Oobleck breathed in defeat.
"I failed Science…"
"I'm pretty sure Science will forgive you if you just observe from afar. I'm sure there is much to learn just with being able to let her live her life, instead of intruding on it." Ozpin affirmed and Oobleck finally gave in.
"Very well, I promise to not interfere on the subject's life."
"Good and you will apologize to her and her family, as well as Glynda. She had a lot of work trying to keep you out of jail."
"You're right. Well, I can consider I learned a valuable lesson this time." Oobleck said as he stroke his long beard.
"And what it is?" Ozpin asked, curious to see what the good doctor learned out of it.
"Dragon fire hurts." Oobleck answered and the headmaster suppressed a laugh. It was a lesson many people learned that month.
"Let's take you out of here. You will keep the beard?"
"What beard?"
…
"So, lady killer, about all the marriage thing…" Yang started as she and the rest was having breakfast. Suffice to say half the table blushed furiously.
"We will do a ceremony, something simple, since this will be more of a promise for the future than the real thing. And no, we won't discuss the after match, so drop it." Jaune said as he ate a slice of bacon.
"Oh, come on, you two need to tell us all the dirty details! You two are the first to marry! I was actually betting Rubes and Weiss-cream would be the first." Yang said, making Weiss let indignant sounds and Ruby blush madly.
"But Weiss, we still need to date first!" Ruby stated, making the heiress slap Yang's shoulder.
"Hey!"
"Why you keep giving your sister weird ideas!" Weiss protested. "There's a proper order for those things!"
"First, vomit boy and P-Money here showed that isn't true. I mean, they had a daughter first. Second… You didn't deny Ruby and you might date in the future." Yang said with a big smirk, making Weiss let out small screams of indignation.
"I don't get it why so many rituals. If you like someone else, why not just marry outright?" Tia asked as she drunk her milk.
"Sharing your life is a huge commitment, Tia. People don't want to make a mistake and get hurt." Blake was the one to explain.
"Sounds like too much trouble." Tia answered as she used her tail to grab a sausage. "Why don't you…"
"Heya. So, I heard you two are now a thing." Emerald said as she approached the table. "I bet Tia is very happy."
"Hi, Emerald. I hope so, right, Tia?" Pyrrha asked her daughter, which was blushing madly as she stared at the old girl. The rest of the table suppressed chuckles and giggles over her reaction.
"Tia? That's really you?" Emerald asked as she surprised herself on the dragonet sudden growth. And she also was blushing a little.
"How many other dragon girls are walking around?" Weiss couldn't resist but tease the transfer student.
"Oh, maybe there are others! Ren, I want our own! Maybe a dragon boy! We are so going to the forest to search other eggs!" Ren shut Nora by putting a pancake on her mouth.
"Do I… look pretty?" Tia shyly asked to the mint haired girl.
"Y-yes. Very." Emerald answered and fidgeted a little, and blushed hard when Tia gave the sweetest smile possible. The thief tried to convince herself it was nothing, but the girl certainly was making her heart skip.
"T-thank you… I was wondering if… you would like to spend the day with me?" Yang was trying so hard to not tease them. Blake was helping by keeping a hand over the brawler's mouth.
"Oh… yes, sure… if your parents are OK with it." Emerald said, trying to understand why she promptly accepted it.
"Well, I'm not against it. Come with me, Emerald." Pyrrha said as she got up and took the red eyed girl to the bathroom.
"What mommy will do?" Tia asked, concerned over her crush.
"She'll just talk with her. Girl talk." Jaune said with a smile.
"Oh, I bet I know what exactly they will talk. 'If you hurt my daughter I'll show why I'm four times champion!' and such." Yang answered with a smirk, and Tia tilted her head.
"Why Emerald would hurt me. She's nice!" Tia defended, and everyone cooed her a little, making the dragonet blush. They started talking at the same time, and didn't notice when Cinder approached and coughed to get their attention.
"Oh, hi. You're Emerald's friend?" Ruby asked as she noticed the older girl.
"Yes, indeed I am."
"Oh, she's having a talk with Pyrrha, you know, concerned mother stuff." Yang said and started chuckling looking at the shocked stare Cinder gave her.
"What?"
"It's because of this little cutie here!" Nora said as she somehow grabbed Tia by putting her hands under her arms and showed the dragonet to Cinder.
Tia stared at the older girl and blinked a few times.
Cinder stared back with a serious face.
Tia blushed a little.
Cinder glomped her and started rubbing her cheeks together, speaking in a childish voice.
"Oh my gosh! Sho cute! Look at your cute horns and tail!"
"Daddy, am I that cute?" Tia asked as Cinder still was hugging and rubbing her cheeks.
"Yes. Yes, you are." Jaune answered simple.
"I need to dress you up! Goth dress, frilly dress, maid dress aaah!" Cinder squealed happily as she petted Tia. The table started laughing openly but the woman apparently didn't care.
"Cinder?" Emerald asked as she returned with Pyrrha and saw her boss acting like a fangirl over Tia.
"Emerald! Please tell me we can spend the day with such beautiful little thing!" Emerald was shocked to say the least. Her boss, the queen, was acting like a teenage girl. Pyrrha just rolled her eyes and sat by Jaune's side.
"Well, Pyrrha and I had… a talk. So if Tia so wishes, we can spend the day together." Emerald cautiously said, and the dragonet get off Cinder's grasp and hugged emerald happily, making the older girl blush.
"Very well, here Tia. Some spending, money for you." Pyrrha said as she lent some lien to the girl. "And Emerald, I hope we had an understanding."
"Y-yes. I'll take care of her." The mint haired girl promised and Pyrrha gave a mysterious smile.
"Good, you're to be back before nightfall. Have fun sweet, and call us for anything." Pyrrha stated and Cinder made a victory pose.
"Aww, I want to go out too…" Ruby lamented.
"We still have detention because of the Cardin thing. I just hope Prof. Port is not going to be there…" Blake stated hopefully.
…
"Oh, so the little Tia won't be here today…" Port stated disappointed he would not share his marvelous stories (according to him and her) with his 'granddaughter'.
"Sadly, Peter." Glynda Said with a big smile, happy that Port had no real reason to stay in detention with them.
"Oh well, Ozpin told me to give a small lecture to you all about violence. That reminds me of that one time…"
Glynda started planning the death of the headmaster, as well as everyone else in the room.
…
"Medical examination?" Doc Verd asked to Jaune and Pyrrha as the two teens sat in the room with her, clearly nervous.
"Well… You know Jaune and I are a couple, right?" The champion asked, and the Doc nodded with a mysterious smirk. "So, we decided to be sure we are both… healthy, just in case."
"Just in case of surprising sexy times?" Doc said and Jaune started choking on his own saliva, receiving pats from his girlfriend. "Well, I can do that. I can also provide you two with some needed things, unless you two plan to give Tia a little sibling sooner than later.
"Later!" Both said at the same time, and the Doc chuckled a little.
"I'm so happy for you two. What your parents said about it." A long silence took place. "You two didn't tell them yet?"
"My family probably already know… And are planning accordingly." Jaune said ominously.
"My mom! I forgot about her! She is probably furious!" Pyrrha said in panic, while Jaune hugged her to calm her down.
"How she reacted when you told you adopted Tia?" Doc questioned, and there was another long silence. "Oh, that will be fun."
…
"Oh. My. Gosh. You're too adorable!" Cinder celebrated as Tia walked around in a frilly dress with a parasol, while she and Emerald took pictures. "Now, which one?"
"Can I try the summer dress, Cinder-onee-sama?" Tia asked happily, and Cinder squealed as she gave the dress to the dragonet.
"Onee-sama?" Emerald questioned as she helped Tia to change.
"Let me have this, Emerald." Cinder affirmed simple.
"So, hmm, this is part of the plan or?" The thief questioned her boss.
"What plan?" Cinder asked as she checked her scroll. Emerald decided it was better to not remember her boss of her evil plans. Besides, Tia looked adorable in a frilly dress.
…
"Mom, please, calm down." Pyrrha said as her mother Thea was on the scroll, while Jaune sat by her side with his mother on his own scroll.
"Pyrrha, I'm not mad at you because you and Jaune are dating. He's a good boy, and at least he has a good head on his shoulders and is from a good family. I'm worried about you adopting a girl when you're barely an adult!" Thea questioned, and Pyrrha sighed in understanding.
"Mrs. Nikos, I know this sound crazy, but we are in love with Tia, and we want to raise her. I know we are inexperienced, but that is why we hope to rely in our families." Jaune said, and Thea sighed.
"Young man, I raised a daughter, and I know all the difficulties of the job. Ask your mother how difficult it is, even with help."
"She's right, Jauney. I raised seven girls and you. And I had help." Sarah Arc stated, but had a more supportive smile. "And you are in a unique situation."
"I know, mom. That's why we are counting on our friends and family. Tia is a nice girl, and she loves us. I don't want to get separated from her." Jaune stated, and Thea nodded a little.
"Look, you two just started dating, and I don't care what this stupid book of laws says…" Thea stated as she showed the big book on her hands. "If you want to raise the girl, I'll help with what I can. If you need, I can even move there to babysit her, but I don't want motherhood to get in the way of your dreams, Pyrrha. I'm sure you have your own, Jaune."
"I promise you I will ask for help when needed, mom. Jaune will be by my side." Pyrrha said as both held hands. Thea smiled a little.
"Do you plan to marry my daughter? And I mean a true marriage, not whatever this book says." Pyrrha's mother asked, and Jaune hugged Pyrrha.
"Yes, Mrs. Nikos. I want to marry her after we graduate."
"I see. Look, I would go there if I could, but dealing with the press is driving me insane. So after the festival I'll go to Beacon to meet my… granddaughter." Thea said, still trying to get on her head she just turned into a grandmother.
"So will us, Jauney. Your sisters can't stop talking about meeting their niece. And then we can talk more about your engagement." Sarah spoke, and after a few more comments and goodbyes they finished talking.
"That went well." Jaune was the first to speak after the calls ended, and Pyrrha relaxed on his arms.
"Mom took it better that I expected." Pyrrha said with a smile.
"Yeah. I mean, it's not like you turned into a dragon or we got ourselves in a harem." Jaune said and she slapped his shoulder.
"Oh, you would like that, won't you?" She questioned, and he answered with a deep kiss.
"I have you. Besides, can you imagine me having a harem? I mean, what kind of events would get me one? Wearing glasses and not shaving?"
"That would be a good luck for you. Besides, I do think a few girls have a thing for you." Pyrrha said pinching his arm. "Which you won't try to discover who!"
"Like Yang?" Doc said with her own smirk.
…
"Bless you, Ms. Xiao long." Port said as Yang sneezed and he resumed his wild tale of his younger days.
"Someone talking about you?" Blake whispered.
"Maybe? Pyrrha is so lucky to not be here." Yang commented off handedly.
"Oh, envy of her? If you got Jaune first, it would be you out of here."
"Pffft, yeah, like me and vomit boy could work."
…
"And done. Results will be out in two days." Doc said as she finished her examinations. "You two are healthy young teenagers, my preliminary exams say. Here are some pills for you, Pyr, and some condoms for you Jauney."
"Thanks, Doc. Hope we can keep this talk private." Jaune said as he hid the condoms in his pocket.
"Oh, about that…"
"Hi, Jauney boy." Cardin said as he opened his curtains with a big smirk. Jaune groaned and Pyrrha panicked.
"Cardin… First, I'm sorry about your legs…"
"Its fine, your daughter already apologized in the name of everyone. And I was kind of a jerk to her. So let's forget about it."
"That is really mature of you. Thanks." Pyrrha said a little relieved.
"So… You two are going to bam-bam in the ham eh?" Cardin smirked, making both of them yell internally.
…
"You two look perfect! Now, make the pose!" Cinder said as both Emerald and Tia were wearing maid outfits.
"Cinder, do we have too?" Emerald asked while blushing a little.
"Yes." Cinder ordered and the thief made a heart with Tia's hand. Cinder squealed and took pictures.
"You l-look pretty…" Tia said, and Emerald blushed more.
"Now hug!" Cinder ordered.
…
"So Cardin is out of the infirmary?" Nora asked as they met Jaune and Pyrrha by the end of the day.
"Yes, he got out today. So you all are off detention." Pyrrha affirmed and everyone, including Glynda celebrated.
"So, he's not mad about all the leg breaking thing?" Ruby asked.
"Well, he isn't holding any of us on that, but…" Pyrrha started.
"Oh my gosh! You two ARE planning the do!" Yang said as she checked her scroll and saw the new hot rumor.
"He heard us talking about a completely private matter and its clear he wanted to have a little revenge." Jaune finished while pinching his nose.
"A matter we ARE NOT talking about!" Weiss said as she turned Yang's scroll off. "RIGHT, YANG!"
"Oh, I don't know. Look how pretty they look in red." Yang teased the two blushing teens.
"Please, can we not talk about our private life? We don't go around talking about all the rumors of what happens in your dorm." Pyrrha begged, and team RWBY stared at them.
"Wait, what do they say about us?" Weiss demanded to know.
"Oh, just that you all have kinky orgies, with all the yelling and all." Nora shouted, making team RWBY blush this time.
"That's it, it's official, I hate school." Blake said as she sighed.
"It's not that bad…" Ruby said awkwardly.
"Do not read the White Rose thread them." Nora suggested. It was them that Tia appeared wearing a gothic dress.
"Hey there." She said with Cinder behind her, and Emerald trying to hide behind them as she was still in the maid outfit. "Cinder-onee-sama took me to take many pictures in cute dresses!"
"Onee-sama?" They all asked.
"Why I didn't think of that…" Blake and Weiss murmured together.
"It's just a nickname. Your daughter was utterly adorable. I'll send the pictures to her scroll later." Cinder said proudly.
"OK? As long as you had fun..." Jaune said as he petted his daughter.
"She can keep the dress. So, now that she was delivered safely, we better return to our room." Cinder walked away. Tia hugged Emerald and smiled shyly.
"I had lots of fun, Emerald."
"Me too, Tia. Me too." Emerald confessed and hugged back, gaining many 'awwws' from the crowd. Emerald rolled her eyes and left while waving at Tia. Yang didn't waste her time in teasing the dragonet.
"Awww, look who got a girlfriend!"
"G-g-g-g-g-girlfriend?!" Tia stuttered with a might blush. "She isn't my g-g-g-g-g…"
"Who was saying it was us that complicated things?" Yang kept the teasing while hugging Tia. "Come on, little one, just say you like her. I think she likes you too."
"She does?" Tia asked hopefully.
"Not if she wants to keep her limbs." Pyrrha murmured, but Jaune hugged his girlfriend.
"Pyrrha, we agreed to only bring bodily harm if she makes our daughter sad. Otherwise we will just have to scare her a little more." Jaune prompted.
"Wait, how this even works? I mean, Tia is just a few weeks old, how we know she is even legal?" Blake asked the most practical question.
"Hmm… that is a good question. Let me consult the Great Book of Laws of Remnant." Jaune said as he took the conveniently placed book in the corridor. "Dragon's legal age… dragon's legal age… dragon's legal age. Ah, here it is. 'The legal age for a dragon is when they fucking say so because I won't tell them otherwise.' I never knew you could use the f-word in legal documents…"
"Whoever wrote this book have a wicked sense of humor… And never had a dragon daughter." Pyrrha scoffed as she angrily stared at the law.
"What 'legal age' means?" Tia questioned.
"We will tell you… when we think you're old enough." Pyrrha stated while Tia pouted.
"So, what fucking means?"
…
…
…
"I'm so killing whoever wrote that law." Jaune affirmed.
…
A.N.: So, Volume 3 started, and first episode biggest revelation is that Ren and Nora are orphans, what explain why they have being together for so long despite their different personalities. It changes a lot of what people thought of them when you think they were raised together and helping each other as family.
Otherwise nothing in the first episode changes how we see the characters and added nothing to the overall canon. It's clear the new teams are there just to fill slots in the tournament, so don't expect them to get any story. I wonder how Jaune will perform in battle now, since he has being training. I don't expect him to become a badass out of the bat, but I'll be disappointed if he also keeps being a punch bag for the other opponents. Also, they need to show more of his tactical mind on the show.
All in all it was a good start, but too early to say anything deeper.
