Chapter 1:Kitchen Gun.
A bright light flashes inside a theater room, the light dims down and reveals a group of teenagers and adults of various colors. These people are: Ruby Rose, Yang Xiao Long, Blake Belladonna, Weiss Schnee, Lie Ren, Nora Valkyrie, Pyrrha Nikos, Glynda Goodwitch, Ozpin, Qrow Branwen, Winter Schnee, Taiyang Xiao Long, Kali Belladonna, Ghira Belladonna, Saphron Cotta-Arc, Terra Cotta-Arc, Adrian Cotta-Arc, Jonathan Arc IV and Angela Arc.
"Mom?! Dad?!" Blake asked in shock for both being transported to an unknown place and for seeing her parents in who knows how long.
"Kitten!" Kali exclaimed as she pulled her daughter into a tight hug. Ghira soon joined in on the hug.
While that was happening Weiss approached her sister.
"It is good to see you again Winter." Weiss said with a smile on her face.
"Likewise sister." Winter said with her own smile.
"Dad! Uncle Qrow" Ruby and Yang exclaimed as they embraced their father and uncle into a group hug.
"What up firecracker, short stack." Qrow said as he ruffled Ruby's hair.
"How are my girls doing?" Tai said with his own smile.
"Saph?" Angela Arc said as she and her husband approached their daughter and her wife and son.
"Mom? Dad?" Saphron said surprise. Though Adrian had a different reaction.
"Gwanma! Gwanpa!" The infant called out as he reached out to his grandparents. Whom they held and hugged him. Making him laugh as a response.
While everyone was embracing each other Glynda cleared her throat, gaining the attention of everyone present.
"While I like for everyone to be caught up with family. There is the matter of where we are and how we all got here." Glynda reminded.
"Speaking of which, where...are...we?" Qrow said as he looked around.
The others noticed his silence and turned to see what he was seeing and were in shock. Around them were screens that showed one individual that they knew. Jaune Arc. Or rather, what seems to be, multiple versions of the blonde.
"What is this?" Blake asked as she looked around. Her team and friends did the same, taking a closer look at the screens.
They saw one Jaune in blue ninja gear training with another ninja in blue, a woman. Standing across from them was another blue ninja, a bearded man with a scar running down the right side of his face.
One showed Jaune holding a blonde baby with whisker marks on his face. The blonde made faces which caused the infant to laugh. This in turn made the female coo at the adorable sight.
Another one showed the blonde knight being decked out in red and gold armor fighting strange creatures. Next to him was a man in red, white, and blue with a star shield, a woman with red hair and black uniform, a man with a bow and arrow, another man with a red cape and hammer, which Nora approves of, and a giant green behemoth.
Another showed Jaune in black uniform with a red bat on the chest sitting in a cave with an elderly man beside him. Both of them are looking at a monitor.
Another in orange and dark gray armor standing next to a man in similar armor but with green instead.
Another in a biker outfit leaning against a motorcycle, which Yang found hot.
And another wearing a dark school uniform that made him look like a delinquent. Next to him was a redhead with a green school uniform, an old man, a gypsy, a man with white hair styled strangely, and a dog. All of them doing some bizarre poses.
Another showed Jaune in Beacon but as a teacher not as a student. Which Glynda odd given that Jaune was still the same age as the others.
There were even some that showed Jaune going on dates with some of them. Causing most to blush, some to frown in disapproval, some to be filled with hope, and some in dread.
While they were busy looking at the screen, Ozpin was currently focusing on two screens in particular. One was shown a monstrous Grimm-like knight emerging violently from one of the Grimm-pools. That one filled the immortal with worry. Though on the other screen is what mostly caught his attention. It showed a version of Jaune Arc wearing run down armor, with his friends weapons attached to it. Coreca Mors in his hands as he charged at a surprisingly wounded and furious Salem.
The headmaster lifted an eyebrow at this.
"Welcome." The sound of a voice broke their trains of thought to see a robed figure descending towards them.
"Who are you?" Demanded Glynda as she narrowed her eyes at the figure. She and the others prepared themselves for a fight, sans Saphron and Terra who stepped back and brought Adrian in a protective hold. They reach for their weapons only to be surprised and shocked that they were missing.
"Fear not, I am Arcanus. A scribe of the multiverse." The now named Arcanus introduced himself.
"Multiverse?" Pyrrha asked with a puzzled expression.
Arcanus then pointed to the screens that the group saw earlier. "These screens are what you call windows into alternate realities. Realities that center around one person in particular. Jaune Arc."
Everyone's eyes widened at that fact.
"You're serious." Yang said in shock. The fact there are alternate realities that center around her fellow blonde was shocking. The others were also shocked at this news.
The scribe turned to the blonde brawler and nodded. "Indeed."
"Why are we watching worlds related to that dunce?" Weiss asked, perplexed. The word she used to describe the Knight earned frowns from his family.
Arcanus reached towards his hood and brought it down. Revealing a dome like helmet, with blue and purple swirls waving around in the visor.
Then, without warning, Arcanus zoomed in front of the scheme heiress. The swirls turned blood red with the visor glowing brightly. As if he was glaring at her.
The white themed member of team RWBY stiffen at the stare. This went down for a few seconds before the swirls on Arcanus's face went back to normal.
"I do not tolerate disrespect. But since you just got here, I'll let it slide." The scribe backed off before going toward an orb that suddenly appeared. Grasping it, he inserted it into a projector that also appeared suddenly.
"I brought you here so you can view these many worlds." The scribe then turned to the audience. "Also to train your Jaune Arc. I'm sure you noticed him not being here with you."
In his words, everyone went wide-eyed at that fact. His friends and family looked around for the blonde Knight. Now, apparently noticing that he was not here with them.
"Hey, he's right, Jaune's not here!" Pyrrha exclaimed.
"Fearless Leader!" Nora added in.
Teams RWBY and JNPR, minus the J, looked around for their missing friend.
"Now, now let's calm down." The scribe caught their attention. "As I said, Jaune is currently in one of my training rooms. Now let's sit down and enjoy the show."
The audience looked at each other before turning to the scribe and nodding. Reluctantly they sat down. The screen then began to light up.
~
In the kitchens of Beacon Academy, stood team RWBY as they were cleaning every nook and cranny. See Ruby had the idea of making dust infused cookies, which led too little to no success. Considering that the kitchen was now covered in cookie dough.
~
"That does sound like something you would do." Weiss remarked.
"Hey I'm not that bad!" Complained Ruby.
"Do I need to remind you about the parent's day incident?" Asked Tai, getting Yang and Qrow to shudder and Ruby to laugh sheepishly.
"Do we want to know what happened?" Blake asked.
"Nope!" Ruby and Yang yelled together. One in embarrassment and the other in fright.
"Believe me, you don't want to know." Qrow cryptically told the feline faunus. Taking a quick swig from his flask.
~
Eventually Goodwitch found out about it and made Ruby and her team clean the entire kitchen for the next two months after classes.
~
This bit of information caused all of team RWBY to groan in displeasure. Goodwitch's punishments are always the worst and left with little time to do anything fun. Or get caught up in studies for Weiss's case.
Goodwitch herself shook her head at this whole thing. 'Of course those four would cause so much trouble and I have to be the one to deal with it.' The combat teacher thought to herself.
~
Which understandably did not sit well with any of them. They are currently in the kitchen right now wearing hair nets, aprons, and rubber gloves.
~
Yang ended up groaning at this scene since she really didn't like anything that damaged or messed up her hair.
~
"Ugh! Why do we have to clean the kitchen? Ruby's the one who destroyed it." Complained Weiss. Cleaning the ovens
"Because Goodwitch wanted us to, and I quote, 'learn to bear the consequences of our leader's actions'." Said Blake completely livid, while trying to clean the tiles and walls.
"Tell me about it." Yang muttered as she was washing the dishes.
"You know I'm right here, right? I also told you guys that I'm sorry." Ruby said as she scrubbed the dirt and stains off the sinks and counters.
~
"Yeah!" Ruby exclaimed with a pout and looked at her own team with a hurt look. "You guys should have my back!"
"That isn't the problem Ruby. The problem is that you don't think before you do." Weiss lectured.
~
"That isn't the problem Ruby. The problem is that you don't think before you do." Weiss stated. Ruby 'hmph' in response.
~
Hearing her own words repeated on the screen caused her to blush in embarrassment. It also made everyone chuckle a bit.
~
"Alright no more fighting ladies let's just get this done." Yang said. Her team nodded and continued their work with little success. A few minutes later Ruby let out a frustrated sigh.
"Ugh. I wish there was a faster and easier way to clean this kitchen." The red reaper complained.
"Same." Yang said as stopped washing the dishes.
"Yeah." Blake said as she stopped cleaning the walls and tiles.
"I agree." Weiss said as she too stopped cleaning.
~
"Word of advice kids, 'be careful what you wish for.'" Qrow said as he took a swig out of his flask.
"That… is the smartest thing you ever said." Winter mocked. Taking a swing at the drunk.
"Bite me Ice Queen." Qrow snarled.
Winter simply replied with a smug smirk, causing the dusty old crow to scowl at her.
~
On cue a familiar blonde as he stepped into the kitchen with a smile on his face. The four huntresses noticed the blonde.
"Oh, hey Jaune, what are you doing here?" Asked Ruby.
"Hi I'm Jaune Arc. Say goodbye to daily stains and dirty surfaces with the new Kitchen Gun!" Jaune said as he took out a Glock. This surprised and confused everyone.
~
"Kitchen what?" Yang asked in confusion.
"Why does he have a gun?" Blake asked. She was just as confused as the blonde brawler.
"Please tell me that this isn't going to where I think it is going." Glynda muttered as she punched her nose.
~
"Kitchen what?" Yang asked but Jaune just ignored her and pointed to the sink.
"This sink is filthy but with just 3 shots with 'Kitchen Gun'." Jaune said as he turned to the sink and started firing.
*BANG* *BANG* *BANG*
"Bang! Bang! Bang!" Jaune yelled. Team RWBY simply jumped back in shock as Jaune fired into the sink. After the blonde was done, they turned to see the sink completely clean. Minus the three bullet holes. "What the hell, Arc?!" Yelled Weiss, again Jaune ignored them.
~
"Is he insane?!" Weiss yelled as she and everyone was shocked by Jaune's actions.
"Well… that's one way to get things clean." Qrow said.
This earned him a few deadpanned stares from those who knew him.
~
"And it sparkles like new. Look how it cleans this greasy hob!" Jaune said with a smile ever present on his face. He then turned to the stove top. Team RWBY went wide eyed and quickly tried to stop Jaune but…
*BANG* *BANG* *BANG*
"Bang! Bang! Bang!" Yelled Jaune as he shot the Kitchen Gun again. The stove was now clean but it was destroyed with bullet holes in it.
~
"Again?! Really?!" Weiss yelled in disbelief.
"Jaune really likes that thing." Pyrrha pointed out, noting the slight glee on Jaune's face. Ren and Nora nodded with the champion, sweat dropping slightly.
~
"Goodbye dirt!" Jaune yelled
"Grubby tiles." Jaune said as he pointed the gun at the tiles with Blake just happened to stand in the way of. The cat Faunus quickly dodged before the blonde could fire.
*BANG* *BANG* *BANG*
~
"I am going to kill that boy!" Roared Ghira. His eyes burning in fury. All he wanted to do was tear this boy apart for attempting to hurt his baby girl.
"Ghira!" Kali yelled. She disapproves of her husband's words, mostly because she hopes that this boy and her Blakey can give her grand kitties.
"Dad!" Blake yelled. Her face flushing red in embarrassment.
~
"Bang! Bang! Bang!" Jaune yelled as he fired into the tile, he then brought the gun close to his face. The tiles themselves were clean of dirt and grime but had obvious holes in them.
"I LOVE YOU KITCHEN GUN!" Jaune screamed as he kissed the gun. "Oh, you do that too?" Ruby asked while her teammates gave her a 'really?' look. They then turned to Jaune.
~
"Really not the best time for that Rosebud." Tai remarked.
Ruby simply scratched her chin while laughing nervously.
~
"Rusty taps." Jaune said. He then pointed the gun at another sink that had a rusted tap. At this point team RWBY huddled together in fright, despite being trained huntresses.
*BANG* *BANG* *BANG*
"Bang! Bang! Bang!" Jaune yelled as he fired into the sink. The tap was now clean of rust but very much destroyed.
"Hahahahaha!" Laughed Jaune maniacally which was very unnerving.
"You can even use it on the washing up!" Jaune exclaimed as he pointed the gun at the dishes. This caused Yang to go wide-eyed. "Vomit boy don't you dare." She growled. But...
*BANG* *BANG* *BANG*
"Bang! Bang! Bang!" Jaune yelled as he shot the gun into the stack of dirty dishes. Cleaning and breaking them at the same time.
"There! All clean again." Jaune as he gestured to the kitchen was both clean and destroyed at the same time. He then put away the Kitchen Gun.
"New Kitchen Gun, now with laser sights and night vision for after dark cleaning!" Jaune said as he brought out another Kitchen Gun; this one having a laser sight and a scope. He then put it on one of the counters.
~
"We definitely need to get one of those." Nora said.
"Nora, no." Ren replied.
"But Renny, think of how easy it will be to clean things!!" Nora exclaimed.
"Nora, no." Ren said much more sternly.
"Okay but you owe me some pancakes." Nora said.
"Fine." Ren sighed.
~
Team RWBY looked on in horror, they were at a loss for words. They all had different reactions to the whole thing, but they all had one common emotion; anger.
"What the heck Jaune?!" Ruby yelled.
"What is wrong with you Arc?!" Weiss screeched.
"Why would you do that?!" Blake angrily asked as the blonde nearly shot at her earlier.
"What the hell is wrong with you, Vomit Boy!" Yang yelled her eyes turned red and hair glowing brightly. Her knuckles turning white, ready to pummel the blonde knight into a bloody pulp. Her team were in the same mindset as her as they cracked the knuckles.
However, Jaune put up one finger making them stop.
"Remember last week when you broke the gift my sisters had sent me?" Jaune asked with a smile. This made team RWBY remember the events of that day.
"Oh. Yeah." Ruby said, her head hanging in shame. Her teammates winced at that memory, the look on Jaune's face then did not sit well with any of them. All four then slowly realized what this was and looked at Jaune.
~
This revelation caused the Arcs to laugh quietly at this. Their family tends to take grudges very personally, since an attack on one of them is an attack on all of them.
Though this got his friends a bit worried if this Jaune did this to get payback then how far would he go? Weiss suddenly shuddered in fear as she wondered what her Jaune would do to her in retaliation for her rejections.
'No, Arc isn't capable of doing such a thing. Is he?' She thought to herself.
~
"Yeah, consider this payback." Jaune said as he bolted towards the second exit of the kitchen. Shortly after he left; Glynda Goodwitch came into the kitchen. She saw the kitchen clean of stain but was completely destroyed. "Care to explain what happened here." She asked sternly. The four girls fidgeting and sweating nervously, not knowing what to say. Glynda frowned at them, waiting for an explanation.
~
"Great." Glynda muttered as she punched the bridge of her nose.
~
She then looked at the counter and noticed the modified Kitchen Gun on the counter. She grabbed it and brought it in for a closer inspection.
"When did we get the Kitchen Gun?" She asked, ignoring the gobsmacked looks on her students' faces.
~
Everyone laughed so hard at this, while Glynda meanwhile just let out a sigh.
'Why on Remnant is my counterpart treating this as a normal occurrence? Well, knowing the students they depict in these viewings, I can understand now.' Glynda thought to herself. 'Still I wonder what makes Mr. Arc so important to the multiverse.'
The screen soon turned dark as an orb flew out of the projector. Not a second after another orb flew in and inserted itself inside the projector. The screen then began to turn back on.
The End.
Hope you enjoyed the reboot of my reaction story. Main reason I did this was because I got stuck with the whole Jaune side plot and calamity part. Figured I'd just make a story just for fun. For those who cared about that little plot point. I'm planning to make that it's own story sometime in the future.
