And here we go! New chapter! Also, a reminder I wrote a new story. Come check it out
"WHERE ARE THEY?" roared Jaune as he took to the skies, trying to sense Ruby. He didn't care that the people of Atlas could see him in the air, some even taking photos.
He had to find her, but he couldn't! He needed to find Ruby! Winter had already called Ironwood to tell him about the situation so the soldiers wouldn't think Jaune was the enemy and shoot him out of the sky.
"Land on a building and focus," ordered Lung Wang, "Link up with more of us, at the same time if you can."
Jaune obeyed, landing on a building before fully expanding his senses. He had arrived at the restaurant and asked where Whitley and Ruby went. The manager said that they had been indeed here, but they took a cab and left, to which Jaune growled in disappointment, before leaving. Winter and WBY arrived at the restaurant a few minutes later and asked the same thing.
"No, no, no!" growled Jaune as he scanned through people's Aura, going through random buildings at a time. He was running out of time!
"Wait, scan that building again," said Andusk.
Jaune did so and found the empty to be devoid of Aura. Which was interesting because he saw people coming and going in the building. He noted bouncers outside.
"Link up with me and tap the building," suggested Fafnir, "We can see if you can use the vibrations to sense people inside."
Jaune did so, ignoring the bouncers yelling at him to land. He was surprised to see it not go all the way through some rooms.
"As I thought," murmured Fafnir, "This building not only blocks Aura, but they have state of the art silencing equipment and vibration mufflers."
"Add to the fact that this seems to be some sort of hotel," added Aryz.
One of the bouncers got nervous and fired a TASER, meant to send 10,000 volts into a person's body. Jaune dodged it before glaring at the bouncer, slowly descending into the ground while spilling killing intent at the bouncer. Said bouncer relieved himself in both ways before fainting. The other bouncer looked nervous as he took out a stun baton.
Jaune ignored them and walked forward into the entrance. The bouncer was about to stop him when he felt something hit him. He shook his head to see Jaune had used his wings had smacked him aside. The bouncer decided wisdom was better than valor and ran away.
Jaune walked up to the front desk, but instead of ringing the little bell in the front for service, he punched the desk, smashing it into pieces. That certainly got the manager's attention.
"You boy! What ar-" The manager didn't get to finish his sentence as Jaune grabbed him by the collar and forced him close to him, face to face.
"Did a white haired boy with blue eyes named Whitley Schnee and a red haired girl with silver eyes named Ruby Rose come in here?" demanded Jaune.
"No," replied the manager plainly.
"He's lying," said Fafnir, "His pulse just quickened, and his muscles just twitched."
Jaune grabbed the manager by the neck and squeezed before saying "I'm going to ask nicely again. Did. They. Come. Here?"
"Freeze!"
Two security guards came out, pointing their guns at Jaune. Without looking, Jaune grabbed his shield, shifting to hand cannon mode and shot the two guard's guns out of their hands. The manager started to sweat at this display of control.
"I'm sorry," said the manager, "But we do not reveal our customer's names. Part of our confidentiality with them. After all, we do receive many famous guests here who have a tendency to enjoy the company of others, and they don't want to let the paparazzi know."
"You're not answering my question," growled Jaune.
Just in time, Blake, Weiss, Yang, and Winter popped into the building. They had noticed Jaune tap the building before descending down and quickly ran to catch up. Ironwood was coordinating with the police force for a search.
"Jaune! Why are you holding this man up?" asked Weiss.
"He's withholding valuable information, and I intend to get it out," replied Jaune.
"Jaune, you can't do that. He's a citizen of Atlas, and you're not part of the Atlas military. It's illegal to interrogate someone from Atlas," said Winter, causing the manager to smile, "Instead, allow me to perform the interrogation. I'm part of the Atlesian Special Forces, and I get a few special privileges along with being a Schnee."
The manager frowned again and almost spat at Jaune when Winter grabbed him from Jaune's hand and punched him in the stomach. She threw him into the ground, where she summoned 3 Beowolves and had them growling at the manager. Each one placed their rather razor sharp paws on a vital organ.
"Now, you're going to tell me. Is Whitley Schnee, my little brother, here? I am her older sister, so I should be allowed to know."
Before the manager could say anything, there was a brilliant flash of light that they all couldn't possibly ignore. It came from the upper levels and overloaded the Aura inhibitors in the walls for a second before they started to work again. But it was enough for Jaune to sense Ruby and her distress.
"She's upstairs!" shouted Jaune as he ran out of the building, as going up the stairs or the elevators would take too long. Jaune already felt where it had come from, flying up to the 15th floor, floating outside one of the walls. He grabbed his sword, infusing it with Light Aura, extending the blade length before slicing right through the walls. The walls gave way, revealing a semi naked Ruby with her head to the side while Whitley was shaking his head from the light show. His manhood was still erect as he approached towards Ruby, intent on still claiming her.
"Well, that was an unpleasant surprise," said Whitley, not noticing the walls had fallen, "But still, I will claim your purity!"
Whitley wasn't able to do anything else as Jaune flew into the room and grabbed Whitley's head with his left hand. He slammed Whitley into the wall, his blade pointed at his throat.
"Give me a reason why I shouldn't kill you right now, you little bastard!" roared Jaune.
Whitley wasn't able to respond as he had fainted from Jaune's killing intent. Disgusted, Jaune tossed Whitley to the side before hurrying to Ruby.
"Ruby! You're safe now! Please, wake up! It's me, Jaune!"
When Jaune lifted her up, her head lolled to the side, as if completely unresponsive.
"Ruby? Please, wake up!" cried Jaune, but Ruby didn't respond. Her eyes were open, but they looked empty.
With that, Jaune cried, howling into the night sky as security quickly made its way up to the room, along with WBY and Winter.
"And in later news, the Atlas military forcefully disbanded a hotel that was apparently catering to 'questionable' services. Once such victim was a young Huntress-in-training Ruby Rose, who was apparently with one of these customers was Whi-"
The television set was powered off right after that. Jacques Schnee was sitting in his study room behind his desk. He had a cup of coffee next to him that he had not touched. Sitting on one of the couches was team RWBY, with Ruby still unconscious. Medics had confirmed that she was still alive and unharmed, but they weren't sure why she was in a coma. One of the more horrifying bits of news was that when they did an x-ray of her whole body earlier, they found a Grimm parasite swimming in her brain. It was inactive right now, but the fact it was in there was cause for concern. Right now, both Yang and Jaune were not letting Ruby out of their sight. She was placed in a sitting position, her head leaning onto Yang's shoulders. On the other side of the couch were Winter, Jaune, and Ironwood. Klein was standing behind Jacques, massaging his shoulders to relieve some tension. Klein was acting as an adviser, something that he rarely did, and only did so when Jacques felt like he needed another opinion on a big decision. Whitley was standing in front of the desk, as if on trial, although his smug face made it seem like he wasn't worried.
The silence seemed to stretch when Jacques suddenly stood up. He walked over to Whitley, putting his left hand on his shoulder. Whitley looked down on the hand for a second before looking up at his father, thinking that Jacques would tell him that he would take care of it, that it would be okay.
He received a right straight from Jacques. Right in the nose.
Whitley stumbled backward into the bookshelf before sliding down on his butt. Books fell on him, but he was in shock. So were the other two Schnees.
Jacques Schnee, actually punching someone? Sure, he may slap. Winter got one for telling her father she was joining the military without telling him earlier. Weiss was spanked when she was younger. Any heavier punishment was dealt by Klein, with slaps on the hand by a ruler, etc. But a punch was something he never did before.
"You... FOOL!" roared Jacques, "Do you have any idea what your stunt cost us?"
"I-" started Whitley, but Jacques cut him off.
"And don't think I'm just talking about Lien here! Our reputation! Our dignity! Our… our…" Jacques sighed angrily, holding his head with his hand, unable to come up with words to finish expressing his rage. He sat back down onto his chair, trying to finish what he was going to say. Klein gently put his hand on Jacques's shoulder. Jacques looked up to him, both of them staring at each other's eyes before Jacques nodded. Klein stepped up, his eyes light-brown.
"Due to the exposure of Whitley's action," began Klein, glaring at Whitley for a bit, his eyes turning red, "The stocks for the SDC has dropped a lot."
His eyes turned back to light-brown before continuing, "Not only that, but the council of Atlas has ordered the SDC to halt all productions due to investigations. Ironwood has his men investigating everything Whitley has done, been to, or even touched. Not to mention once he got his hands on the manager, he confessed that you were the one who put the briefcase in that room. The one carrying that Grimm parasite!"
Jacques took over, "James is a trusted friend and ally to this family. But his investigations must be revealed to the public due to demands. Winter has been suspended from the military without pay, and may even face dishonorable discharge. Not only that, but because of this, there is a chance that the SDC, Nicholas's creation, our family's legacy, might be forced to dissolved!"
"In short," added Klein, his eyes turning purple, "The company and your family's wealth might go bye-bye!"
Winter and Weiss gasped, while Whitley stared.
Finally, he gave a reaction, but not a very good one.
"Fuck those peons," cursed Whitley, "We are Schnees. They should be praising us, bowing to our whims. Ruby should've been honored that I chose her. She-"
Whitley didn't get to continue as he felt overwhelming killing intent from WBY. Jaune was the most evident, but he was being restrained by both Ironwood and Winter for the moment, though both of them were tempted to let him go.
"Dammit," sighed Jacques, "I lost that bet."
He handed Klein a white Lien card before explaining further, "I thought that you would at least show some sort of remorse for your actions. Even some sort of penance for causing your sister to potentially lose the position that she earned. Klein has told me repeatedly that you were too spoiled, but I kept ignoring in favor that you might be the Heir I wanted, or at least be the man I hoped you would be. I have let myself be blinded too much. No longer. Whitley Schnee, you will relinquish any claims you have to the Schnee Dust Company. Even if Weiss relinquishes her heiress position, it will fall to either Winter or her child." Whitley looked at him, eyes wide in shock, but Jacques continued, "Furthermore, I am sending you to boot camp. James will take you in, where you will learn the discipline that you are in very much in need of. He will be the one to teach you what it means to be a soldier, and will provide regular reports on your behavior. Be thankful he is the one doing it, and not some other general. He is someone I can trust. And lastly, I will cut off all your allowance. Any Lien you need must be earned."
Whitley finally found his voice, "But... that's barbaric! I will not participate in such a barbarism such as fighting. That's for commoners!"
Anything else was suddenly put on hold as there was a knock on the door. Klein walked forward and opened the door, talking with the maid outside before frowning.
"It seems we have visitors," said Klein.
"If its the paparazzi, send them away," sighed Jacques.
"It's not," replied Klein, "It's much worse."
"Who could be much worse?" asked Jacques wearily.
"The absolutely livid parents of Miss Rose, as well as Adviser Ozpin," answered Klein, causing everyone to freeze.
"As if the situation couldn't get any uglier." said Ironwood, knowing all of their personalitys. If they got the full story and went out of control, then he feared the manor would no longer be standing, along with several more property damage.
"I'll FUCKING KILL HIM!"
Qrow was trying to get his hands on a terrified Whitley, who had been put into a jail cell hastily constructed in the middle of the dining room, where they had moved to continue the meeting. The reason Whitley was in the cell was for his own safety.
"LET ME HAVE HIM!"
Qrow wasn't the only one trying to get him. Taiyang was on the other side, trying to get his hands on the brat. Raven would've actually joined if it wasn't for the fact that she was busy inspecting Ruby's condition, along with Ozpin. And for once, Ozpin wasn't even trying to stop Qrow and Taiyang from trying to brutally murder a boy.
"Can you help her?" asked Weiss worriedly.
"It'll be hard," answered Ozpin, "Luckily, the power of the silver eyes activated before the parasite could go in too deep, but I'm afraid a little too late."
"I'm more concerned on how he managed to get his hands on that," commented Raven.
"What's wrong with Ruby?" asked Blake.
"That version of the Grimm parasite changes a person's brain function. If Ruby had not activated her hidden powers and Jaune's intervention, then I'm afraid that Ruby would have become... Whitley's sex slave. She would not be able to live without him, whether he abused her or not."
CLANG
Everyone looked up to see Yang joining in the attempt to maul Whitley, with flaming hair and red eyes.
"YOU! BASTARD! I! WILL! KILL! YOU!" She roared in a voice that reached demonic levels, each paused yell was with a punch that smashed against the cell's bars.
"Is there any way to cure her?" asked Winter, "Money is no problem."
"Indeed," added Ironwood, "I can have our top surgeons help remove it."
"What about micro Dust bombardment?" offered Jacques, "Expensive, but I can pay for it. We could destroy the parasite inside.
"That may be difficult," said Ozpin, taking a look at the X-rays, "The Grimm parasite has partially embedded itself into Ruby's brain. Any attempt to remove it may kill her in the process. Dust bombardment is also risky as it is in the brain. It would destroy her brain cells near it, and could cause problems in the present and future.. She is in the coma right now because she froze it, but the fact it's in her brain now is a problem. The only cure may very well be for Whitley to finish what he started to wake her up, although it would mean she would become his slave, though to a much lesser degree."
SLASH
They once again looked up to see Raven had finally snapped and joined in on trying to kill Whitley this time. All four sides had a relative of Ruby, trying to kill Whitley. Whether it was the father, the uncle/second father, the aunt, or the cousin/sister, they all had one common goal: kill the brat.
"Qrow! Raven! Tai-Yang! Miss Xiao Long! Please, calm down, now!" demanded Ironwood.
"Don't stop us, Jimmy! This brat deserves what's coming!" roared Qrow, "He almost raped my daughter, almost took her virginity, and now Ozpin tells us that the only way is for her to become his slave? I'LL KILL HIM! I JUST GOT MY DAUGHTER BACK INTO MY LIFE!"
Ironwood could only look away in pain at Qrow's rant, and he really couldn't blame Qrow's action.
"Sis!" shouted Qrow, putting out his fist.
"Got it!" replied Raven as she put her fist to meet his, and together, they both closed their eyes and activated their semblance.
Their luck combined, both working for a way to get Whitley. Whitley had all the luck against him now.
Yang was continuing to punch when one of the bars broke off. There was a crack behind it, and Yang had hit it just right. The other two bars beside it cracked a bit. Taiyang rushed to that spot, taking Yang's place, and with a roar, pried it open wider. He leaped back just as Qrow and Raven slashed horizontally into the open area. The result was that several bars all fell down, giving them room for a person to enter in one at a time. Qrow entered into the cage, dragging a babbling Whitley out of it. Ironwood tried to intervene, but Taiyang stopped him. Winter herself was halted by Yang.
Whitley nearly fainted on the spot when Qrow lifted him up by his collar, also pissing his pants as he was slapped awake.
"Can't have you going to sleep on us," muttered Qrow, "Raven?"
Raven nodded and jabbed a point at Whitley's body, forcing him to wake up so Qrow could continue to inspire fear into him
"Listen you little brat," started Qrow, looking right into Whitley's eyes, "You messed with the wrong person. Now, I'm going to kill you, but not right away. I'll slowly shave off your life force, little by little. I'll make your life here a living hell until you do go to hell."
"You won't do it," coughed Whitley, "You're a Hunter. And the fact is that Ruby needs me to live. So let me go if you want her to continue living. I'll be sure to.. treat her well."
Qrow twitched and punched him in the stomach. Raven grabbed his head and plunged his head into the floor.
Jaune did nothing, he just stood and watched with satisfaction.
"There are other ways to control a man," said Raven seductively. Yet this tone of voice chilled Whitley.
"We only need you to do it every once in awhile. The other times, we'll just lock you up, making sure you get the basics just to barely survive. Not to mention, we can also... make sure your time with her will never be enjoyable."
"Enough."
Jacques stood up, standing proud and walking towards Raven and Qrow. He stared at them for a bit, and they stared back. Then, they were all shocked when Jacques got onto his knees and bowed, his forehead touching the ground. The prideful Jacques Schee was actually bowing.
"Please. Leave my son's punishment to me. I will make sure that he learns his lesson heavily. But in the end, he is still of my flesh and blood as well as one of my last links to my dead wife."
Qrow glared at Jacques before sighing, letting go of the weapon on his back. Raven twitched and let go, but not before breaking Whitley's wrist.
Whitley screamed silently before slowly getting up, still wanting to get the last laugh, "So, shall I take Ruby to my room? Will we be having our wedding night?"
Whitley was promptly punched into the wall, this time by a pissed off Jaune. It was very surprising to see Whitley not dead yet, but he was still alive, for now, and had been rendered unconscious.
"I'll take him to his room," sighed Klein as he dragged Whitley by the foot. He was careful enough to make sure hit Whitley's head against the door as he walked out... as well as every stair as he took the future cadaver to his room.
"Qrow. Raven. Taiyang. I have something I need to ask of you," said Jaune seriously before getting on his knees. "I was talking with my dragons earlier. We may have a solution for Ruby, but it involves me marking her. So I ask. With your blessing, may I propose to Ruby?"
"Whoa, a little early that, isn't it?" stammered Taiyang.
"Explain," asked Ozpin.
"When I Mate Mark someone that I love, I flood the body I mark with my Aura and the chosen dragon's power. And because of that, there is a very high chance that I can destroy the Grimm parasite with the dragon's power without harming her."
"Well, then get on with it!" urged Qrow.
"It's not that simple," replied Jaune, "Once I do so, we have 72 to hours to... consummate our 'marriage', so to speak, or it fades."
"Can't you just let it fade and then mark her again at a later time?" asked Raven, intrigued.
"No," replied Jaune, "If I mark her and we do not do the deed, then it fades, and Ruby will never be able to receive the mark ever again. She would never officially be my mate, and I refuse to let that happen because of that little asshole!"
Qrow fell down on his chair, unable to decide. Klein appeared next to him with a bottle of expensive whiskey, to which Qrow grabbed the whole bottle and chugged it. Jacques frowned and wanted to scold Qrow, but with her daughter in a coma because of his son, he didn't have the heart to do so.
"...Is there no other way?" asked Qrow weakly.
"Unless you have a better one, then go ahead," replied Jaune sadly. "Trust me, I don't want it to be like this, but I don't know what else to do."
Nobody was able to bring up any suggestions. After all, it was either let the snot nose brat Shitley get his way or Ruby having herself deflowered early by someone she actually loved.
"Fine," grunted Qrow, "I didn't want Ruby to get married so fast, but if it's the only way to save her, then... just do it."
"You can still walk her down the aisle," snickered Yang, "Just because Ruby has the Mate mark doesn't mean she can't get the wedding she wants. We don't have to put it in the papers saying they're married."
"Speaking of which, Yang, are you also marked?" asked Raven, causing Taiyang to perk up.
"No," sighed Yang, shaking her head in the process "I didn't feel like I'm ready for such a big step yet."
"Well, I suppose that's something," muttered Taiyang. At least his daughter wasn't married yet.
"Should we leave then?" asked Jacques.
"Preferably," replied Jaune, "I have to bite into her chest, and I'm sure Qrow doesn't want anyone seeing her daughter being undressed."
Ironwood coughed awkwardly while Qrow glared at every male not part of Ruby's family. Jacques stood up and left with Winter, Klein, Ozpin, and Ironwood.
'Holy shit this is so messed up. Why did it have to be like this?' Jaune asked himself. 'If only I had gotten there in time…'
"Don't blame yourself, young one. This isn't your fault. Keep your thoughts in the here and now. Ruby needs you."
"Alright, here goes," breathed Jaune as he fully linked with Andusk.
"Don't worry," murmured Andusk, "I'm sure it'll work."
"And although Ruby is young, she did just pass her 16th birthday," added Aryz, "I'm sure she won't reject you."
'That's what I'm afraid of most,' replied Jaune, as he moved Ruby's upper clothing aside, exposing her bare chest to him and her family. Leaning down he was hesitant at first, but with a deep breath and a bit of assuring confidence from the dragons, he bit Ruby's left breast, right above her heart.
Ruby's body twitched as the dragon essence and Jaune's Aura were infused into her body. As the Aura traveled to her head, the Grimm parasite twitched. Then, it shrieked as the Aura began to destroy it without harming Ruby. It struggled, hoping to burrow deeper, but the dragon essence prevented it from doing so. With one final struggle, the Grimm parasite dissolved, leaving no damage to Ruby's brain.
Ruby slowly woke up to see her family, friends, and boyfriend all standing around with worried expression.
"What happened?" asked Ruby in confusion. She blushed as she saw her left breast expose in her dress when she remembered what happened. Whitley, slowly molesting her. The Grimm parasite. Then, Whitley closing in on her maidenhead.
"No... NO!" cried Ruby, starting to struggle out of Jaune's arms.
"It's okay!" shouted Jaune, hugging her, but she struggled to get out.
Qrow closed in, asking Jaune to move. Jaune complied, and Qrow hugged his daughter.
"It's okay," whispered Qrow, "It's all right, my little Rosebud."
Ruby stopped struggling before her eyes cleared up.
"Dad?" whispered Ruby, her voice cracking.
"I'm here," replied Qrow softly, kissing her forehead, "It's alright. Daddy's here to protect you."
"Dad!" cried Ruby as she burrowed her head into Qrow's chest, "I was so scared!"
"I know, Rosebud. I know."
Qrow hugged his daughter, trying to get her to calm down. Taiyang and Yang reached out and hugged her, too, making her feel safer. Raven merely put her hand on Ruby's shoulder to show support. Weiss and Blake quickly joined in, hugging their friend and leader as Jaune rejoined, all of them surrounded Ruby in a circle of love and care.
It took an hour for Ruby to finally calm down, and once she did they explained the situation to her.
"So, I don't have the Grimm parasite in my brain anymore?" asked Ruby as she shivered. She hated that feeling of that worm going through her ear into her brain, "How'd you guys get it out? Surgery? Dust bombardment?"
"No. Any of those options were too risky and could cause death or further problems," answered Weiss, "One 'safe' option was for Whitley to finish what he started. Obviously, nobody wanted that."
"Instead, he may have forced Jaune to play his hand," finished Blake, pulling her own shirt down a bit to reveal her Mate Mark.
Ruby's eyes widened as she looked down and saw a white dragon's head on her chest.
"Ruby," said Jaune softly, causing Ruby to flinch. They all noticed this and cursed Whitley for awakening the phobia of men again.
"There was no other way. With the Mate Mark, I flooded your body with Aura and Andusk's essence. Like Pyrrha, I healed you and destroyed the Grimm parasite. However, now it is your choice whether you want to consummate it or not."
"You got our blessings," muttered Qrow, "So no worries there. You saved my daughter's life, so right now there's no other boy on the planet I'd approve for now."
Ruby looked at Jaune before she started to shake again a bit.
"I... don't know," whispered Ruby, "I'm scared."
"It's okay, I don't blame you. I'd be scared to." Jaune told her soothingly.
"You have 72 hours to think about it," Raven told her calmly, "Take this time to think."
"No matter what you decide, I'll always respect your decision," said Jaune before standing up and leaving, not only did he want to give Ruby some time to think, but he also REALLY, need to let off some steam from this whole situation. Perhaps the Grimm near Atlas's borders may do the trick.
Jacques was in his study, drinking a Bloody Mary. The SDC was in trouble, and it was all because of Whitley. It was ironic how the beginning of a great company was going to be ended not be a person marrying into the Schnee name, but rather a blood of Schnee. He opened his computer and went through his mail. He had hired the best lawyers to help mitigate the damage, and they were sending him reports. It wasn't looking well for them.. Soon, he heard someone knocking on the door.
"Come in," called out Jacques.
Ironwood stepped into the room with Winter, Klein, and Ozpin. All of them had a frown on their face.
"We just found out Whitley has a lot more skeletons in his closet than we thought," announced Ironwood.
"Of course," sighed Jacques, "Just tell me everything. Better to rip through this quick."
"Whitley, in addition to owning illegal items, has been found guilty of conspiring with the enemy that caused the whole incident at the Vytal Festival and the attack on Beacon, as well as the creator of creating the virus that hijacked the CCT in Vale," stated Ironwood.
"WHAT!?" shouted Jacques, standing up, forcing his chair to fall backward.
"His computer shows evidence of creating that program. He kept it inside a hidden file within the databanks that my technicians almost missed while going through it," continued Ironwood, "He had a triple password lock and everything. One wrong guess, and the whole file gets deleted."
"Luckily, I am familiar with Whitley's life that I could guess it," spat out Klein. Jacques noticed that he had taken the usual way of addressing one of his family out, but decided not to call him out on that.
"What we found... was disturbing," continued Winter, "Whitley knew of the attacks, and yet did nothing but encourage it. We found his journal files and he wrote on them how he would become the Heir, and how he wished his dear sisters would get out of his destined path. We think he agreed to help out on the chance that Weiss might be killed or suffer a condition where she would no longer be a viable Heiress. Not only that, he has several photos of female Huntress-in-training with the label 'Reward'. Ruby Rose was on that list."
"What concerns me the most," finished Ozpin, "Is the program. As smart as Whitley is, I don't think he could create one that falsifies itself to access the system as a Headmaster or Headmistress of an Academy. Which means that he managed to grab a copy of a Headmaster's codes."
Everyone froze at that. How did Whitley get something so valuable? If not him, then Salem? Was somebody leaking information?
"We'll have to change the access codes and try to find a better firewall," summarized Ironwood as he turned around and slowly made his way out.
"Agreed," stated Ozpin, "More than ever, we need to be prepared."
"James," Jacques called out before Ironwood reached the door, the Tinman turned and looked right at Jacques, "When my son wakes up and recovers, you will take him with you. I want you to put him through the harshest training imaginable. Make him go through what experienced soldiers have to do. Don't let him have any room for comfort. Discipline him. Destroy that behavior he has now so he can rebuild himself. Make weekly reports and make sure you yourself inspect him once a month to see if he shows signs of getting better."
"And if it doesn't work?" asked Ironwood his brow raised, wondering what Whitley's father would choose.
Jacques closed his eyes, resolving himself for the next words he would say, "If it fails, then send him to a correctional facility. Some prison time may help. Sentence him there to however many years he deserves."
"Understood," nodded Ironwood before leaving with Winter escorting him.
Jacques leaned back on the chair Klein had already picked it up and placed back behind him, "Where did I go wrong with Whitley?"
"I have told you, sir, you spoiled him a little too much. But there were also other factors that could play into it," replied Klein.
"If I may," added Ozpin, "I believe Whitley feels jealous towards Winter and Weiss. The glyphs are a hereditary Semblance passed down in the Schnee family. The fact Whitley was unable to do so caused him to feel isolated from his sisters and hatred that he did not get it."
Jacques sighed at this. He had spoiled Whitley too much, but he couldn't help it. When he saw Winter and Weiss both knew how to use glyphs, he had already known that they would take a path similar to his father-in-law. When he saw Whitley was without one, he had hoped to mold him into a savvy businessman in hope of being able to expand the company. He gave him everything he needed to know, and then some more. He didn't think it would backfire like this.
MORE DRAMA! MORE WAITING! MUHAHAHA READ AND REVIEW.
A few side notes, when I first wrote this story, I had Mama Schnee written as already dead. So no, she won't make an appearance. I may be a little slower in releasing the next chapter due to... things... cough Destiny 2 cough.
Also had a random idea spout in my head. What if I made My Hero Academia fanfic where I made Deku, aka Izuku Midoriya, was a Dragon contractor? No harem though, I'm just going to have him with one dragon. Bahamut! He'll use Aura for attacks and be able to create dragon scales, etc. Pairing undecided. If someone wants to use the idea, though, go for it. Just tell me so I can read it. Dunno if or when I'll have time to write it.
Review Corner! Been awhile since I did this, gonna answer some guest reviews.
Hope: Someone wants to do a reaction reading, go for it. I'm not going to do it because it would take too much of my own time. If anyone does want to do one, just pm me so I can send you some of the chapters so you don't have to write out the story, just copy and paste.
Madman479R: SSJ Jaune? Haven't really considered it for a one shot.
Guest: Adding Ddraig and Albion into the story might be hard. I'd have to find some way to incorporate the legends in.
Welp, hope you guys have enjoyed this chapter, look forward to the next one!
