Upon the ground level of the jungle, the rest of Sora's group had been scattered due to his...impromptu commandeering of control. Donald and Goofy were surrounded by bamboo, using a large flattened rock as makeshift furniture to sit down upon. "Gawrsh. Where are we?" Goofy asked, feeling a little less optimistic than he normally did. "I sure hope everyone else is okay. Especially Sora."

Donald however didn't seem to care as he sat up with intense annoyance. The way the supposed Keyblade user recklessly tried taking the ship controls from him, landing them in this mess in the first place, one could understand him being so livid. "Ah who needs him? We can find the King without him." he said, reaching for his staff. It was time for them to continue the search on their own. Sora had already proven unreliable in Donald's eyes. Instead of holding the shaft of his weapon, he felt something... soft and hairy. "Huh?"

Looking toward his right hand, he saw...a small gorilla's face. Both of them stared for a moment before screaming at each other. Something shifted through the thickets, drawing the attention of all three parties. The gorilla took that opportunity to run, dropping something in the process. Something Donald and Goofy recognized.

That recognition was interrupted by the sight of another figure emerging from the thicket. A late middle aged man with slicked back black hair, wearing in a yellow shirt with a red ascot, brown safari pants, and holding a double barrel shot gun. He stopped, eying them with curiosity and suspicion.

In another part of the jungle, Jaune was being treated to an...unfortunately very familiar predicament. Hanging from a tree by his hoodie. "...Why is it always me?" he bemoaned as he dangled in an undignified manner. He wasn't even worried about the height. The shame was much more damaging than the inevitable fall. This was exactly what he ranted to Pyrrha about NOT wanting to be again. So...instead of waiting around to be saved, Jaune took a breath and decided to draw his sword, cut the branch, and take the fall. However, as he plummeted...he just ended up landing on another tree branch. It was less painful of a landing, but still embarrassing. "Oh, come on!" he groaned.

"Jaune? Do you...need some help?" The familiar melodic voice of Pyrrha reached his ears as he lay upon that thicker branch. Sighing, Jaune decided to shelf his ego and entrust himself to his partner. So he rolled off the branch and plummeted again. A moment later, Pyrrha raised her arms, and with a bit of help from her Semblance, managed to at least slow Jaune's fall to the point where she could catch him and not crumple to the ground.

"Thanks Pyrrha..." Jaune muttered, still quite embarrassed. This situation was supposed to be reversed. Then again...the last time he tried reverse the positions by catching Weiss, they ended up plummeting anyway...but at least he softened her landing. Hopping out of Pyrrha's arms, the two of them looked at their new surroundings, keeping an eye out for anything dangerous, or any sign of their companions. "I hope the others had better landings than us." Jaune said.

"I'm sure they're alright, Jaune. For now, let's just stay together until we find them." Pyrrha suggested, clasping him on the shoulder encouragingly. A gesture that Jaune returned with a smile and nod. Wherever they were, Ruby and Weiss would definitely be fine.

"That little porcupine headed imbecile!"...At least physically. Ruby and Weiss landed on a jumbled pile of leaves on a very rigid set of dirt. Picking themselves up in the wake of Weiss's livid shout, they brushed the dirt off their clothes as best as they could. "We could have been severely injured! Or worse!" Weiss groaned when removing a twig from her hair and flicking it aside. "Honestly, sometimes he's as reckless as you are. Why is it I'm constantly working alongside people who don't think before they act?"

"Hey," Ruby spoke up sternly, not even bothered by Weiss's unsubtle dig at her. "Sora's just concerned for his friends. Like I've been for you and the others. If the situation was different and we hadn't found you yet, I would have suggested we come here, too."

Ruby's words seemed to fall on deaf ears, which wasn't anything new with an annoyed Weiss. "And you likely would have gotten us stranded in the middle of nowhere after we plummeted several feet in the air," Weiss scoffed, finally finishing her dusting and twig clearing. "Alright. We should head this way."

Staying put with an unimpressed expression, Ruby crossed her arms and watched Weiss leave...only to come right back a few seconds later. "No. We should go this way." As Weiss said that, Ruby looked at a non-existent wrist-watch, knowing it wouldn't be long before... "Okay. I think it's best we just stay put until the others find us." The Schnee daughter huffed with hands to her hips

"Oh for crying out loud," Ruby muttered under her breath with a roll of her eyes. She was gone in a blur and ran up a tall tree, landing on a thick high branch. She used her left hand as a brim while her right held onto another branch to steady herself. Nothing but trees in the horizon, until by chance, she saw a clearing with what looked like tents set up within it. A smile crossed her face as she rushed down back to a surprised Weiss. "I saw a camp, going this way. If there's a camp there then that means there's people. Maybe even someone who's seen our friends."

"And they probably have something to relieve me of being out in this wilderness. Well done, Ruby." Weiss said, walking off to the indicated area. Ruby had to suppress a sigh at Weiss's slightly condescending 'well done'. It was hard to guess whether she was being serious when she said that to her sometimes. As she followed after her partner, Ruby couldn't help looking up at the sky, thinking to herself,

'Sora...I hope you're okay.'

As they made their way through the dense foliage, the two huntresses kept a close eye out for anything out of the ordinary. So far, there was nothing unusual, which was surprising. Even in Wonderland, they both had run-ins with the heartless shortly after they had arrived there. But this jungle was...surprisingly peaceful. And sure enough, like Ruby said, there was a camp. A rather ramshackle one that Weiss noticed could easily be trashed...but that was neither here nor there.

"Hello?!" Ruby called out, only for Weiss to shush her an instant later.

"Keep it down, Ruby! We don't know who built this camp. We don't even know anything about this world. For all we know, they could be dangerous. We have to stay cautious here." she whispered.

"Why hello there."

"Eek!" Weiss nearly jumped out of her skin at the sound of the voice behind her. Ruby however was not as she had seen the person it belonged to. A young, fair-skinned woman with back-length, light brown hair, wearing a rather plain beige shirt and auburn skirt. Despite her attire being just as ramshackle as the camp, she had a very scholarly air about her.

"Oh! Pardon me for startling you, dear. I didn't expect to see other people in this jungle. Let alone ones who speak english." The woman spoke with a very distinct accent. It somewhat reminded Ruby of Velvet's accent, but was also noticeably different. The woman's dark bluish green eyes fixed upon the curiously dressed girls, who looked back at her.

"Hi there!" Ruby greeted with a much more chipper disposition than her startled partner. "My name's Ruby Rose. My startled partner here is W-"

"Ehm, I'm Weiss Schnee. And it's a pleasure to meet you as well, miss." Weiss quickly interjected to salvage her dignity, with Ruby rolling her eyes in respone.

Their new acquaintance chuckled at the two of them as she replied, "Well it's a pleasure to meet both of you young ladies. My name is Jane. Jane Porter." she greeted warmly. "You must be dreadfully tired. Please, come inside. You're just in time for tea." she said as she guided the two girls into the wider tent among the many different nick-knacks and objects around the camp.

This Jungle was proving to be quite the source of strange encounters.

Not too far away, Jaune and Pyrrha were wandering around, thankfully this time with less branches hitting Jaune in the face. They were currently heading down a trail with a stream, following it in hopes that it might lead some where. Pyrhha, paying more attention to Jaune than her own footing, almost tripped and fell into the stream. Thankfully she maintained her balance when instinctively grabbing onto the nearest thing to her. Ironically being...Jaune's own outstretch hand. "Careful there, Pyrrha. Wouldn't want you bruishing your face." he said with a casual smile.

A faint blush crossed Pyrrha's face when she glanced at her hand then at Jaune. Seeing his partner was steady, Jaune released her hand and continued down the path. Pyrrha stayed behind, feeling her heart skip a beat, a grin spread across her face, and her hand resting upon her her. Seeing the distance he covered, she snapped out of her reverie and followed after him. Pushing aside a batch of bushes, Jaune gasped in delighted surprise as he saw... "Yes! Here it is! I wasn't sure when I saw it while hanging from the tree, but I was right! A camp!" he exclaimed cheerfully. Looking around, neither of them saw anybody yet. "I hope whoever is here can help us out." Pyrrha said hopefully

As they were about to enter the camp itself, they jumped in shock when suddenly Tarzan plopped in front of them from the trees above. The shock turned to surprise as they saw who landed right behind him. "Sora!"

Sure enough, there was the brown spiky haired boy himself, just as pleasantly surprised as the two of them. "Jaune! Pyrrha! You guys are alright!"

The announcement of those two names drew a gasp of surprise from the third party following after Sora and Tarzan. "Jaune? Pyrrha?" Blake couldn't contain her surprise as she immediately leapt down alongside Tarzan and Sora, furthering the JNPR partners' shock and awe. "Blake!?" "Is that really you, Blake?!" Jaune and Pyrrha respectively exclaimed in disbelief.

Blake's surprised expression mixed with confusion as she looked toward Sora. "Wait. Why didn't you mention you knew my friends?" The moment she asked him that, Sora realized that he completely neglected to many ANY of his friends, including Ruby and the others of her world. "Oh...sorry. I uhh...didn't know if you were one of Ruby and Weiss's friends or-" The mention of her teammates immediately caught Blake's attention as she quickly stepped over to Sora, kneeling a bit more to his level as she exclaimed in ever rising surprise, "You know my teammates?!" A surprised Sora blinked at her before nodding just as rapidly as his eyes blinked. "Y-Yeah. We all came here together." Blake couldn't believe it. Just seeing Jaune and Pyrrha and hearing the names of her teammates in a present tense manner left her with such a wonderful feeling of relief. Her friends were okay.

Drawn by the commotion outside, Ruby and Weiss, the latter of whom was holding a tea cup, pinkie-up of course, emerged from the main tent. Their eyes immediately widened when they saw their faunus friend alive and seemingly unharmed. "Blake? What are you doing here?" Weiss asked, her tone filled with surprise, but also an edge of relief. Ruby however was much more- "BLAAAKE! You're okay!"...exuberant as she dashed up to her newly found teammate and glomped her without hesitation. Stumbling with surprise, Blake blinked and smiled awkwardly as she pat Ruby on the head. ""Hey, Ruby. I'm glad you're alright, too."

Jaune and Pyrrha smiled at the sight, though deep down they still worried for their remaining members. Ren and Nora could be anywhere...but knowing them, they'd be just fine. After all, Ruby had found them, Weiss, and now Blake. The others couldn't be far behind.

Blake soon lowered Ruby, getting back to the main concern on her mind. "Have you managed to find anyone else?" she asked Ruby who...merely looked down in a downcast manner and sighed. "No...You're the latest in the group we've managed to find." she said at first in a sullen tone. One that didn't last long as she smiled a moment later. "But I'm glad we found you. Guess this was a fortunate misfortune."

"Or dumb luck. Emphasis on dumb." Weiss muttered when glancing to Sora and sipping her drink. "Hmm. You know I'm usually more for coffee but this isn't bad tea."

Tarzan stepped forward, causing Jaune, Pyrrha, Ruby, and Weiss to step back in surprise. Smiling to the new four, he gestured to himself in the same manner he did to Sora and said, "Tarzan." Jaune and Ruby stared in absolute wonder and confusion at the strange man. "Oh right! This is Tarzan." Sora said, gesturing to the wild man who gestured to himself and repeated his name. The Remnant members who didn't know him looked at one another before introducing themselves. "Uhh, hey Tarzan. I'm...Jaune." Followed by Pyrrha politely saying, "I'm Pyrrha." then Ruby introducing herself jovially. "My name's Ruby." and lastly Weiss who sighed and said, "Weiss Schnee."

With the introductions finished, Tarzan gave a smile and a gesture to follow him in the direction of the tent. Everyone looked at Blake who said, "Follow us, everyone. I'd like you to meet the other person who helped me when I woke up in this world." Ruby and Weiss looked at each other, realizing this must have meant Jane new this Tarzan fellow. Though still mildly confused, Jaune managed to shrug it off, in no small part due to Pyrrha's help. So with a literal shrug between the two boys, everyone followed Tarzan into the tent, their spirits at a renewed height with the return of Blake.
