(I don't know what went wrong with this chapter. On my account, it says that it is posted but it won't show up in the archives.)
I'm back! Thanks for sticking with me. My computer is still messed up and now I am actually editing and proof reading for grammar and spelling errors (spellcheck is one thing I took for granted) and it takes a lot longer to write these out, but I'm still going.
Also, I will extend the story after Pyrrha and Jaune get together (there was a lot of support). I may also do a couple one-shots for Weiss and Ruby, Blake and Sun or the others. Although, I have very few ideas as to what I should do for them as a couple, so if you guys have any let me know. However, the 'epilogue' type chapters may be slower because I'd like to try my hand at an OC team story.
And that's all I have to say, so read and enjoy. Or not. I'm not your boss... yet.
The red hed shook the glazed look out of her eyes, but was breathing heavily. "Y-yes Jaune?"
"Oh, that's a relief. I thought you were losing consciousness. Are you hurt?"
Pyrrha felt Jaune's arms around her and smiled up at him. "No. I'm really great."
"Really?" Jaune asked. "You just smacked your face into the ground."
"I suppose my nose does hurt a bit," Pyrrha looked away with a smile. "Would you kiss it better?"
Jaune rolled his eyes a set the Spartan back on the ground. "Yeah, you're alright."
Pyrrha frowned at the absence of contact. Jaune stood back up and offered his hand. He did notice that his partner was a little,ore eager than usual to take it, but ignored that fact. "So you wanted to go train?" Pyrrha asked, still holding Jaune's hand.
The knight tried to pull his hand away, but couldn't match Pyrrha's strength. "Uh... yeah. It can wait until you get something to eat, though."
"I'm not that hungry. Let's go," Pyrrha tugged the blonde boy towards the stair case that lead to their usual rooftop.
"I know the way, Pyrrha. You don't need to lead me," Jaune grunted as he tried to free his hand.
"Fine," Pyrrha had an edge in her voice as she let go.
I shouldn't be doing this. I should get away from Jaune right now... but he does want to train and I do want to help him, Pyrrha's dust altered mind reasoned against her common sense. They arrived on the roof when Jaune realized that he wasn't prepared. "Wait, I forgot my weapon back in the room."
However, as he went to go back down, Pyrrha grabbed his shoulder and spun him back around. "That's alright. We can work on hand to hand tonight," Pyrrha suggested.
"Sure, I guess..." Jaune was starting to feel like something was off.
Both of the students got into fighting positions. OK, study your opponent, wait for them to make a move. Sudden actions lose matches, Jaune remembered what Pyrrha had taught him. He focused on Pyrrha, waiting for the subtle body movement that would let him know she was about to strike.
Before he could even register what had happened, Jaune found himself laying flat on his back with Pyrrha straddling him and pinning his arms above his head. "Wait, what!? What happened to taking your time and planning out your attack? What was I suppose to learn from that?" Jaune complained.
However, Pyrrha didn't answer him. She stared down at the trapped boy and bit her lower lip. "Uh, Pyrrha? Are you going to let me? Pyrrha?" Jaune was growing concerned.
Pyrrha lowered her head and had her lips meet Jaune's. Jaune blushed a dark shade of red and struggled to get his teammate off. Pyrrha tried to deepen the kiss, causing Jaune to a sharp twist of his body, Jaune threw Pyrrha of his body. He scrambled to his feet and glared at the red head. "What the hell Pyrrha! That was taking it way too far!" he shouted.
"Relax, it'll be good for the both of us," Pyrrha slowly rose to a stand and approached Jaune.
"Pyrrha, I know you mean well and I tolerated all of what you've done so far, but you just can't force yourself on me." I'm startring to see why Sun kicked me out that day. Jaune backed to the edge of the roof.
Pyrrha's eyes were glazed over again and it seemed as if she didn't even hear Jaune's arguement. She lunged at the blonde boy, who ducked underneath her arms and ran to the door. Pyrrha had to take a moment to stop herself from falling off the roof and steady herself. In that time, Jaune stumbled down the stairs and into the hall.
"I... should really... invest in a skateboard or something," Jaune panted as he ran down the hall.
"Jaune?"
Jaune slowed to look for the person who called his name. Behind him, he could see Cardin walking up to him. "What do you need Cardin? I'm kind've in a hurry," Jaune leaned against the wall for support.
"You know I can still hear you guys from my room when you're up there, right?" Cardin smirked.
Jaune blushed and coughed. "Oh, uh, you heard that, huh?"
Cardin chuckled and threw his arm around Jaune's shoulders. "Yep, and you know what. I'm gonna help you."
"You... are?" Jaune looked skeptically at the taller boy.
"Of course. Were still friends and I owe ya one for what happened in the Forever Falls."
"Um, OK. How are you going to help?"
"I know a great hiding spot you hide in. I'll even get Russel and Sky to keep her busy," Cardin smiled.
"Wow, thanks Cardin," Jaune was happy that his former bully was willing to help.
"No prob." Cardin sent a message to his team and led Jaune through the school.
They arrived at a storage closet. "Here?" Jaune asked.
"Yep. This is the main supply closet for the janitors. Go on in."
Cardin opened the door and Jaune stepped in. Then Cardin's scroll went off. When he answered it, they could hear Russel's panicked voice. "Hey Cardin, she got through us. I think she broke Sky's wrist. Seriously, she is a lot more aggressive than usual. She's on her way."
Cardin slammed the door behind Jaune. "You heard him. Now don't make too much noise." Cardin called from the other side.
"Wait, am I suppose to just stay here?" Jaune asked as he tried to open the door, but the handle wouldn't budge. "Uh, Cardin?"
"Oh yeah, the door only opens from the outside. Don't worry, I'll let you out when it's safe." Cardin's friendly voice was starting to scare Jaune.
"But I-"
"Shh. Here she comes," Cardin warned him. "Oh hey Pyrrha."
"Where is he Cardin?" Pyrrha sounded absent minded.
"Who?" Cardin asked innocently.
"Jaune," Jaune shuddered as he heard her purr his name .
"Oh, Jaune-y boy. He's in here." Cardin opened the closet door.
"But you said-" Jaune's eyes widened in fear in confusion.
"As far as I'm concerned, I am helping you... and messing with you at the same time," Cardin cheerily replied.
Pyrrha walked into the room and Cardin closed the door behind her. "Have fun," the mace wielder laughed.
Jaune backed into one of the shelves. "P-Pyrrha, what's going on? What brought this on?"
Pyrrha stopped and thought for a moment. "I... don't remember, but all I care about now is finally removing those annoyingly obscuring clothes."
Jaune started to notice that her mannerisms were different. "You're not acting like yourself... well you do flirt a lot and have made several moves... but you've never been this aggressive!"
"Shh. Enough talk," Pyrrha whispered as she began to slip Jaune's hoody off.
The knight took the opportunity to duck around the Spartan and run to the door, desperately trying to open it. "You're so cute when you're nervous. I guess that means your cute all the time," Pyrrha giggled as she approached.
With grunt of frustration, Jaune gave up on the handle and summoned his aura. With a flash of white, he punched the door, breaking it down and sending wooden splinters everywhere. He started to run into the hall, but was stopped when he heard a terrifying shout. "Mr. Arc! What is the meaning of this!?"
The blonde turned to find professor Goodwitch glaring angrily at him. "I-I-I," Jaunes stuttered.
"Got you!" Pyrrha sang as she leapt from the closet and tackled Jaune to the ground.
"Ms. Nikos! What in Remnant is going on here!?" Goodwitch's hands were on her hips and her eyes could send a pack of Beowolves running.
"I'd love to answer you," Jaune replied while defending himself from Pyrrha's series of kisses, "but I'm a little pressed at the moment."
"Ms. Nikos, this is inappropriate behavior! Get off of Mr. Arc this instance!" Professor Goodwitch ordered.
Pyrrha continued smother Jaune with quick pecks and letting her hands move around his body, completely ignoring the professor. "Ms. Nikos, this is your last warning!"
"I don't think she's in her right mind at the moment," Jaune grumbled as he struggled with the strong girl.
Professor Goodwitch frowned and reached for her crop. With a quick wrap to a nerve on the back of Pyrrha's neck, the Spartan fell unconscious and collapsed onto Jaune. "This is certainly unusual. Mr. Arc, would you please carry Ms. Nikos' body to the infirmary so that we can examine her."
After getting out from under his teammate's body, Jaune nodded and picked up Pyrrha. They walked to the infirmary where Jaune placed the Spartan on the bed. The nurse informed him that a full examination will take some time and that he should come back in a couple hours. Jaune gave one last look at his sleeping teammate before heading back to his room. When he arrived at the dorm, he found Professors Ozpin and Oobleck talking to the other members of team JNPR. "Ah, Mr. Arc, I'm glad you're here. We need to talk to you," Oobleck ran up to Jaune as he entered the room.
"Am I in trouble?" Jaune asked as he looked between the two professors.
"No," Ozpin reassured him, "but we are talking to all the students. We found an illegal mind-altering form of dust in one of the hallways and any information that any of you have would be helpful."
"Mind-altering dust? How does it alter your mind?" Jaune asked.
"Well, it makes any recipient the inhales it... sexually aggressive. A large does could cause someone to lose their common sense and assault others," Ozpin explained. "The police arrested a man selling viles earlier today who claimed it was love dust."
Jaune's eyes widened with realization. "That's why she was acting so weird!"
"I assume you are referring to Ms. Nikos?" Professor Ozpin asked.
Jaune blushed and looked to the ground. "Uh, yeah. I, um, think she might be under its influence..."
"Oh really? And why would you think that, Jaune?"
Jaune spun around to find Yang's grinning face. "I, uh, buh, you know."
"Please, tell me more," Yang leaned in so that Jaune could see the mischievous glint in her eye.
"That's enough Ms. Xiao Long. Jaune, where is Ms. Nikos now?" Professor Ozpin interrupted.
"In the infirmary. Professor Goodwitch knocked her out and she's being examined right now," Jaune replied.
"Alright, thank you. I'll go there now. Let's go, Bartholomew," Ozpin nodded to Oobleck.
When the two professors left, Yang forced her way into the room. "So where were we Vomit Boy?"
"I'm not saying anything and I still know about your dream journal!" Jaune puffed out his chest.
Yang quircked her eyebrow. "Oh, you do? Well Cardin swung by team RWBY's room earlier and after he convinced us to not physically harm him, he told us an interesting tale. Also, from what I can tell, he's been going around and informing everyone else. Now wouldn't be awful if someone started spreading rumors about what happened in that closet? Are we clear Vomit boy? Ruby's my sister and Weiss is her girlfriend, so I can forgive them. And Blake's my partner, so I don't want to start a war with her, but if you mention anything about that book to anyone, you will unleash a storm that no one on this planet could handle. Do we understand each other?"
"Yes Ma'am," Jaune gulped.
"Good," yang exclaimed happily. "See ya later then."
Jaune sighed as he fell onto his bed. A couple of hours later, Pyrrha opened the door and entered the room with her head down. "Pyrrha!" Nora bounced over and hugged her friend.
"Is everything alright?" Ren asked with concern.
Jaune avoided eye contact and remained on his bed. "Yes," Pyrrha responded. "I wasn't aware that the dust I was buying was illegal, so they let me off with a warning, but I do feel awful for what happened. Jaune, I am so sorry and so embarrassed. I wasn't myself."
"Why did you buy it?" Jaune asked without looking at her.
"What?"
"Why did you buy it?" Jaune repeated as he turned to Pyrrha with a blank face.
"Wait, I wasn't going to use it on you!" Pyrrha exclaimed. "Well, I did buy it for that, but then I decided I didn't want to use it and I was going to thow it out, but then I dropped it and it infected me. I'm really sorry. Can you forgive me?"
Jaune sighed. "Of course I forgive you, but no more weird dust, okay?"
"Understood," Pyrrha answered, relieved.
Team JNPR went back to their regular activities, but Jaune's mind was elsewhere. Pyrrha's antics were becoming exhausting and he was worried that things may get out of hand. Something needs to be done, the leader of team JNPR decided.
Bonus: The next chapter is called "Finally!"
