I would like to apologize to everyone. I have been extremely busy with work and then there were times when I didn't feel well.
But I did the only thing that makes me want to write. Which is rereading the reviews. And then there was someone who kicked my ass in Elden Ring… and he messaged me to go back to writing… I lost one million runes… that was a hard awakening.
So here's the new chapter and I plan to update the other story. Which is the prequel to this one, The Grand Tour.
Reviews
suntan140: They will have a moment but not in this ACT. It's going to happen in the third one. But I still don't know if I should reveal Jaune being the guy who left her in this ACT.
Guest: Actually... Kane will try something with Timmy in the 26 chapters.
It's going to get worse for him. I have an idea for him and the rest of his personality. And I don't know if I should add Nora and Ren to the mix. But Timmy has a part in this.
And yes, he will see Jinx in Blake in ACT 4. I have this scene in my mind for them.
Yea, Pyrrha is back, but she's still with Mercury.
I was just going to update the prequel story. But there's something I wanted to show in the chapter I lost. So I wrote it again and thank god I updated it.
Guest: Don't count your chickens too soon.
Enigma42: He is based on Dracula but he's more demon.
And Jaune doesn't need to drink blood or eat flesh. I'll be explaining it later in this ACT.
I picked Kane by accident... never thought of the first murderer.
Thanks for reviewing
Guest: I heard it and I might add it to the prequel story. Where Violet is in Atlas. Nice song honestly.
guest:?
Gu3st: I might have a spot for this song. But it's in ACT 3. Where Jaune is baking cookies for something. And let's just say he's not alone.
And thank you for the song. I can't wait to put this song in this story. With Hell or High Water.
Guest: I'm not spoiling
Cloaker: That's a tuff one... there's no scene for it yet. But maybe when I get farther into the story I could find a spot for it.
Kinda gives me ScarFace vibes.
Guest: XD

Jaune wakes up, seeing the ceiling of the bar. Sitting up to see he's in the back room. Standing up, he feels dizzy. So he goes over to the employee bathroom.
He barely makes it to the sink before he falls. His body heating up from something. Turning on the faucet and splashing water on his face.
"W-what" he stops, hearing something coming. Looking around before turning back to the mirror.
"Gimme, gimme, gimme some time to think. I'm in the bathroom, looking at me. Face in the mirror is all I need (ooh)" his mouth starts singing. With his eyes went wide from the shock of his mouth moving on its own.
"Wait until the reaper takes my life. Never gonna get me out alive. I will live a thousand million lives (ooh)" he covers his mouth. But a mouth appears on the back of his hand and keeps singing.
"My patience is waning, Is this entertaining? Our patience is waning, Is this entertaining?" Hands pop out the mirror and grab him by his wrist and pull him in.
"(I-I-I got this feeling, yeah, you know. Where I'm losing all control. Cause there's magic in my bones)" he lands on the other side. With broken shards digging into his hands.
"(I-I-I got this feeling in my soul. Go ahead and throw your stones. Cause there's magic in my bones)" standing up to see a familiar bathroom.
"No" he sobers up from the realization.
"Playing with a stick of dynamite. There was never gray in black and white. There was never wrong 'til there was right (ooh, oh)" the mouth keeps singing to him.
He runs out of the bathroom and sees a dead body, missing a head.
"Feeling like a boulder hurtling. Seeing all the vultures circling. Burning in the flames I'm working in. Turning in a bed that's darkening" now he's being dragged through the hall by his infected hand. Getting closer to the main room, feeling the heat rise.
"My patience is waning, Is this entertaining? Our patience is waning, Is this entertaining?" moving fast enough for him to break through the doors. And flipping over the railing and landing on the floor.
Sitting up to see many corpses surrounding him. With the whole room on fire. Recognizing all the people that died because of him.
"(I-I-I got this feeling, yeah, you know. Where I'm losing all control. Cause there's magic in my bones (in my bones) I-I-I got this feeling in my soul. Go ahead and throw your stones. Cause there's magic in my bones)" They start dancing around him. With two people coming up to him.
Alex and Richerd, his friends that didn't survive. They force him down and hold his infected hand out. And here comes a big fella with a battle axe. Whose eyes seem familiar.
"('Cause there's magic in my bones)" he cuts off his hand. Causing the hand to move around and start shifting into Fear.
"Look in the mirror of my mind. Turning the pages of my life. Walking the path so many paced a million times. Drown out the voices in the air" Jaune looks at a full-grown Fear, singing to him mockingly.
"Leaving the ones that never cared. Picking the pieces up and building to the sky" Fear goes over to him and picks him up by his hair.
"My patience is waning, Is this entertaining? My patience is waning, Is this entertaining?" now face to face with the very thing he's scared of turning.
"(I-I-I got this feeling, yeah, you know. Where I'm losing all control. Cause there's magic in my bones (magic in my bones) I-I-I got this feeling in my soul (soul) Go ahead and throw your stones. Cause there's magic in)" Fear throws him to one of the bandits. Who pushes him to another corpse. Causing them to push him around in a circle while singing.
"(There goes my mind (I-I-I) Don't mind. There goes my mind (there it goes, there it goes) There goes my mind (I-I-I) Don't mind (there it goes) There goes my mind. Cause there's magic in my bones" finally ending up with Fear, whose smiling sinisterly.
Pulling him closer to whisper into his ear "We're going to have so much fun with you Jaune~"
Feeling something on his stomach. Jaune looks down to see a black dagger. Piercing him, and seeing his blood spilling.
"Wha-" he looks up to see Fear's face turning pale. But what catches his attention is a purple dragon behind him. With purple flames dancing around his body. And a skull and twisted horns.
Before the dragon could get closer to them. Jaune pushes Fear away. And just as he pulled the dagger away.
--
Jaune wakes up in his room at the mansion. Recognizing the ceiling fan and smell. So he sits up and stops when he feels pain in his stomach.
He gets off his bed and goes to his bathroom and removes the fake skin. And that's when he saw it. A new scar on his stomach, just where he got stabbed in his dream.
Looking back up to the mirror to see a rusty door taking its place. "Wha-" he's then pushed forward. To pass right through and fall on the dirty hay.
"Sorry Jaune, but the dream isn't over~" Fear says. Showing his pure white skin, with his eyes looking more like Grimm. "Not till we see the first day I fully came to be," he says. He points behind him, with that sinister smile he loves wearing.
Jaune turns to see himself in the corner with Violet. It's been a week without food for them. Both starving, weakly waiting for torture.
"Violet?" Jaune calls out to her. Hoping she's still there.
"Yes?", "Why do you want to be a celebrity? Again," he asks. Wanting to distract his hunger by asking her questions again.
She looks at him, showing her scared face. The scars were freshly made by the one who threw her in here. "I... I..." she couldn't remember.
Jaune tries to look away, knowing what's to come. "Oh no you don't" Fear grabs him by his hair and places his knee on his back. Forcing him to watch the scene that changed him.
The door opens to reveal Kane and two of his goons. But what catches their attention is a plate. With a rotten steak and what seems to be a smashed potato. "Hi pets, I brought you a meal," he says.
The smell reaches them. Jaune slowly stands up. Using every ounce of strength to go over. Notwithstanding the pain of hunger.
Violet follows his example, but her legs shake by how fragile she is.
Both of them reach him. But seeing how Kane pulls away the food from them. "No no no, I only have enough for one person," he says.
The goons chuckle behind him. Jaune's confused by this, or it might be the lack of food that's making this hard to understand.
Jaune looks upon the moment that ruined him, emotionally and mentally.
Before he could speak out, Violet launches towards him. Tackling him to the ground and process to struggle him. As best as she could with a little bit of strength.
Jaune forces his head to look away from this. But Fear doesn't let him. Causing tears to slide down his face. So he does the only thing he could. Closing his eyes, trying so hard not to witness this.
But Fear pulls on his hair "Look, it's our first kill" he says with so much joy.
Hearing the struggle and eventually her gagging. Which is the breaking point and strength to pull his hair away from Fear.
Turning around and pushing him away before running to the door. Using all his strength to bust right through it.
--
*THUMP!* Jaune falls off his bed. Opening up his eyes and looking around. This time he can feel the cold breeze from his open window.
Standing up and noticing the fake skin is back on him. He turns to see the clock, which tells him it's three in the morning. He goes straight to his bathroom to check his stomach, but there are no new scars present.
Letting out a sigh of relief, he takes a seat on his toilet. Thinking about that fucked up dream. And the image of that dragon.
His hand starts to twitch a little bit before he stands up and tries to calm down. He tries so hard to get his hand to stop twitching.
He left his bathroom and went to his secret closet, opened it, saw his guitar, took it, and then took the little book. After placing everything back in its original position, he returned to his room.
He was about to leave his room, when he remembered what Johnny had told him. Briefly turning to look at his bed.
Going over and pulling out a box from his mail, he opened it to see the mask.
--
Sienna woke up, seeing the very person that had caused her to faint. He was sitting in his chair, staring at her like a predator. His glowing red eyes pierced through her soul.
She's too afraid to move. Like a child afraid of the boogeyman in her closet. But she flinches when he sniffs. "I can smell your fear, Sienna," he tells her.
Her body trembled at the way he sounded like a monster. She never blinked once, always staring.
But seeing her reaction makes him feel terrible. So he closes his eyes and takes a deep and long breath. Before reopening his eyes, showing his normal blue eyes. "Sorry," he spoke in a soft voice.
She moves in closer to the couch, not bothering to fight her instincts anymore.
Her reaction causes him to feel even worse. He moves his hands behind his back "All your belongings are packed and a ticket back to Menagerie, first class, is waiting for you" he tells her.
She slowly got off the couch, thinking of her next action carefully. But she stopped when he spoke again. "Go on child, I'm not going to harm you... not even after all you've done to the Belladonnas. Or the lives that were taken from your group," he told her.
Looking at Oro and then walking away. But keeping her guard up just in case. But she stops in front of the entrance to the elevator. Finally remembering something that he hadn't told her. "What was your father?" she asks.
Oro looks at her with a sad expression. "He was a reptilian Faunus... that sold his soul for power," he tells her.
She turned her head to look at him. "Power for revenge, to kill the people who were responsible for his mother's death."
Upon hearing this, she takes her leave.
Leaving Oro to be alone with his thoughts.
--
Later in the morning
Timmy wakes up in Jade's room, and Lizzie is there too. She slept on the bed with Jade, while Timmy took the big comfy couch.
Stretching his little arms and releasing a yawn in the process, he then rubbed his eyes for a second before throwing the blanket off and getting up from the couch to put on his socks and shoes.
Sticking his head out of the room, he looks both ways down the hallway to make sure it was clear before walking out. Trying to remember where Jaune's room was, he went right.
Worried about Jaune, since he passed out on stage. Everyone told him that the alcohol did it. Even so, he's worried and wants to see if he's okay.
Turning the corner, he bumps into the very person he was going over to see. When he looks up and sees Jaune's eyes looking right at him.
"Jaune!" He slammed into him and wrapped his little arms around him as tightly as he could.
"Hey Timmy, how are you?" he asked tiredly. He had just finished a song in the small studio his grandfather made for him and Max.
He wanted Jaune to be able to stay longer and spend more time with his baby sisters.
"Are you okay?" Timmy asks while letting go. But still keeps his eyes on him.
Having bags under his eyes and yawning before answering him, "Yeah, I'm fine, just tired is all," he tells him.
Timmy can see how restless he looks. "Didn't you sleep?" he asks.
Jaune pats his head "Don't worry about it. Let's go to the kitchen and get some snacks. Before I have to take Jade to school"
He offers his hand to Timmy, which he accepts. Walking through the hallway, eventually making it to the kitchen, where some cooks ask them what they want for breakfast. But Jaune tells them they can take a break.
Now alone in the large kitchen, Jaune begins cooking some eggs and bacon. With Timmy sitting on the counter, enjoying a slice of blueberry pie.
Timmy keeps staring at Jaune's eyes, noticing the bags under them. "Did you have a nightmare?"
Jaune stops and looks at him while trying to fake a smile. "No, just got an idea for a song is all," he continues.
At that moment, Jade comes in with Lizzie. Lizzie is wearing a white dress with blue flowers on it. And Jade is wearing her school uniform.
Seeing Jaune already up, Jade runs at him and does what Timmy did, slamming into him and hugging him tightly. "Are you okay?" she asks.
He didn't get the chance to answer; his parents show up.
Jasmine pulls away from her husband and goes to her son. She grabs him by the cheeks and looks into his eyes.
Seeing how she's reacting, knowing how much it must have hurt her to see her son like that last night, he says, "I'm sorry for drinking."
She asks him, "Are you okay?", not thinking about his drinking, but more about the fact that he had lost consciousness after using up his aura like that.
He moves his hand to hers "I'm fine, just a little bit tired from last night." Pulling her hand away from his cheek "But right now I need to take Jade to school."
"It's alright, she's missing today too" his father says.
Jaune would have imposed but he felt weak for some reason. Leaning on the countertop "Alright-" he stops when he feels the sharp pain in his stomach. Right, where Fear stabbed him.
Unconsciously flinching at the pain. Getting everyone's attention at his action. Grunting a bit before hearing the bacon burning.
He straightens himself and goes to turn it off. Letting out a sigh "There goes breakfast"
He keeps his eyes trained on the burned bacon. Frustration being build up, his hands balling up. Blood pressure skyrocketing just by the sight.
Just as he was about to slam his fist on the burned bacon. Not caring how much it would burn.
Something pokes his right cheek. Turning to see Timmy offering some pie. With a big smile "Have some" he said cutely.
Instantly, all that negative emotions washed away. Chuckling before taking a bite.
Jasmine and Jade stare at them. Loving this very touching moment.
Jonathan smiles at this, thinking maybe his wife has the right idea.
The moment didn't last long when the cooks came in. With them cleaning the kitchen before starting the breakfast for them.
While that's happening, Jaune goes to his room and puts on his suit. Cause he has to go to work after breakfast.
Wearing a black suit with a blue tie. He goes over and grabs the wig and glasses. Looking at them, trying to decide if he wants to put them on. Or when he gets to work.
Just as he was about to make up his mind. He felt dizzy, the whole room spinning. His body shining golden and slowly turning dark.
--
Since Jaune had gone to get changed, everyone gathered in the dining room. Seeing all of this delicious food presented before them, they couldn't help but feel excited for dinner.
The children are sitting next to each other. While Team RWBY and CFVY are sitting next to each other.
Jaune's and Blake's parents are beside each other. With Glynda beside Kali, who are anxious to finish and go see Violet.
"Here you go" Velvet says. Finishing cutting Timmy's pancakes.
"Thank you" he says before diving in.
Lizzie looks at them and then at her pancakes.
Coco sees her doing that "Here" she says before standing up. And going over to her and cutting it into pieces.
Lizzie looks up to her "Thank you" she says with the biggest smile.
"So he's fine now?" Ghira asks Jonathan. Him and the rest were worried of Jaune.
Jonathan nods "He's fine" he tells them. "Just tired" he says.
"He had us worried last night" Kali says. Before remembering how he fell face first.
"Mr.Arc should reframe from doing that again" Glynda says.
They remain quiet for a bit, before Janice and her loving family finally show up. With Saphron and Terra coming along with them.
Everyone turns to see them. But one Jasmine locks eyes on her first grandchild. "Cerise!" she screams out her name.
The baby looks at all the colorful people and leans farther into her father's chest. Shy from so many eyes on her.
While that's happening, Glynda looks at Janice and her family. Everything was fine till her eyes land on Saphron's wife.
Terra was looking at all the new people as well. But when her eyes made contact with Glynda's. They go wide from remembering her.
"YOU!!" both of them scream out. With Glynda shooting up from her seat and pointing accusingly. And Terra taking a step forward.
Both never blinking or looking away from each other. Their glare creating a imaginary lighting strike.
Everyone confused by this sudden action. But the one to ruin the tension is Ruby "You know each other?"
"SHE PUSHED ME!/SHE TRIPPED!" Glynda and Terra shout.
The only ones to understand what they mean are Ozpin and Saphron. One being the person to pay her bail and promising that his employee would never do that again. And the other already hearing the story from her lovely wife.
Glynda lets out a growl "You ruined my chance to meet Violet!". Her glare intensifies "And I was humiliated because of it" Remembering what happened to her that night.
"I did him a favor" Terra says before crossing her arms. And letting a small smile grace her lips "He didn't have to waste his time with a granny"
"Oh no" Ozpin said, looking at Glynda transforming into the demon that Beacon learned to fear.
All the students shiver from the sudden chill going up their spine. Flashbacks of seeing the demon terrorizing the students.
Ruby and Velvet duck under the table. While Yang and Yatsu hide behind their chairs. And Blake with Fox just tense up and are ready to jump out through the window.
Coco is shaking in her seat. Weiss is frozen in fear for her life.
"Who could save us!" Ozpin cries out
"Hey everyone" that smooth voice stops the awaking of the demon.
They all turn to see Violet standing there. But what causes the girls and the two women to start drooling. Is the fact that Violet took off the shirt, vest and tie. Leaving only the dress pants, shoes and blazer on. Revealing his muscles to them.
The only one whose not admiring or confused by what he's wearing, is Velvet. She's more confused and shocked to see the missing scars. Trying desperately to remember if she was that drunk.
Yeah she saw his chest on television. But she thought maybe it was covered up by something. Or special effects were used. But seeing it in person, and remembering that night. It just didn't add up.
Timmy looks at him "Violet!" he screams out.
"Hey Timmy, how's your stay here?" he asks. Before giving him a sad puppy look "You've been hanging out more with Jaune then me" he says.
"What in the world are you wearing?" Janice says. Not liking how her baby brother is dressed like a complete fuck boy.
Violet looks at her and shrugs "Its called style, Janice"
"True!" Coco yells out.
Saphron takes a step forward "Go put on a shirt" she's trying to back up her sister on this. Having had her share of assholes like this. The biggest reason why she gave up on men.
Violet looks into their eyes and snorts at them. Getting a very negative reaction out of them. "How about you mind your business" tilting his head a bit. "Or better yet, why don't you worry about your brother. The guy is losing some screws. Been having these nasty dreams lately" he says mockingly.
Even Jasmine was not liking the way he was dressed. Or the way he's treating his sisters.
And Team RWBY felt concerned about what they heard. They know about Jaune's night terrors. And his sessions with a therapist.
Violet loves the rage building up in their eyes. Making him feel incredible, like a nice dose of heroin. "So handle your own before you-" *SLAP* not even noticing Janice having had enough of the disrespect.
She went and slapped him. Hoping this could knock some sense into him.
Everyone held their breaths when her hand connected to his cheek.
The Belladonnas are the ones being more surprised by this. They never thought of Violet being like this.
Glynda would have stood up for Violet. But something didn't make sense.
Violet looks straight into her eyes and remains quiet. Eventually shaking his head in disapproval "And that's why Johnny left this place" his voice sounding different.
Turning to see his parents and then moving to Jade. "We're tired of people telling us what we should be or what we should look like" looking back at his older sisters. "Thankfully after this week... we'll be free again" he walks by her. Not before pumping his shoulder into her's.
Ignoring the looks from everyone in the room. He's going to enjoy his time out here.
Timmy hops off his chair and runs after him. "WAIT!" he screams out.
Causing Violet to stop "You haven't had breakfast!" he yells at him. Once he sees Violet looking at him "Mother Mira says that breakfast is the most important meal of the day" he tells him.
Violet can see how much this means to him. But looking at Janice, whose staring right at him. His body shines dark gold "Sorry Timmy, but I kinda lost my appetite" then focusing his eyes back at him. "But I'll catch you later" he says before leaving.
Abandoning Timmy, who stands there for a while. His ears going limp and looking down to the ground.
Chris looks at his wife and can see how much this is hurting her. Being the cause of this.
Everyone looking at Timmy for a bit before hearing a chair being pushed back. "The hell he is going to leave mini bun-bun like this" Coco says. Speed walking past everyone and Timmy.
--
Violet goes into the garage and goes over to one of his grandfather's car. Before opening the door "HEY!" Coco yells.
Looking up to see Coco stomping towards him "Where do you think you're going?"
"To work" Violet response back.
"The hell you are" she says before walking around the car. Standing in front of him "You're going to go back there and apologize to-"
"I ain't apologizing to them" he interrupts her.
She looks into his eyes "I'm not talking about Jaune's family" moving in closer. "I'm talking about Timmy" she begins to glare. "You broke his heart by rejecting his offer to have breakfast with us"
Violet looks a little bit ashamed of his actions. But ignores her and opens the door to the car. "I'm sorry for that... but I can't go back" he hops in.
Coco grabs the door and holds it "I don't care!" she yells at him. "You're going to-" Violet doesn't care anymore. Starting the car and driving off. Causing her to be pulled and fall to the ground.
Driving away, thinking of all that just happened. Feeling like shit by the way he treated Timmy.
But not wanting to waste his freedom. He just keeps driving away.
--
Eventually Timmy was carried back to his chair. But he hasn't touched his food. The sadness killed his appetite as well.
Velvet doesn't know what to do. Seeing him like this truly made her forget seeing Violet revealing his body like that.
Coco returned with a very angry expression. Not wanting to say something awful about Violet in front of Timmy.
Kali looks at Timmy and moves her sights on her husband. Who meets her eyes, and sees her nodding towards Timmy. Basically telling him to talk to him. Hopefully getting him out of that funk.
So he looks back at the child "Timmy?"
He slowly looks at Ghira "Yes?" he says sadly.
Everyone looks at Ghira, waiting for him to say something. But he couldn't think of anything. "I've never had this trouble when trying to cheer up my kitten" he thought.
Ruby looks at her sister "What should we do?" she asks her. Knowing that Yang could cheer him up.
But all she got was a shrug in response. Kinda busy with remembering how Violet just walked out of here like that.
"Honey" Jasmine calls for him to look at her. Once he gives her his attention "Don't worry, he's always had that attitude" she says.
Kali looks at her "It sounds like you've known him long?"
Jasmine's eyes go wide. Forgetting of Kali and Ghira don't know about Jaune being Violet.
"We're back!" Jamie yells, walking beside her twin.
They stop when they notice the vibe in the room.
Alfred walks around them "Master Jonathan, your father has sent for us. We are to be in the Rising Hotel in two hours"
And that's when Jonathan remembers the thing he was supposed to do before the show. "Thank you Alfred, call my workers and tell them to start moving them" he says.
"Whats going on?" Blake asks them.
Jasmine being happy about dodging the question, answers. "We're going to the Castle. So everyone, get dressed and let's meet up outside in thirty minutes"
Alfred bows before taking his leave. But before that, he moves towards Timmy, who just ignores everything. "Master Timothy?" his voice being loud and soft at the same time.
"Chin up" he says before turning around. "Master Jaune wouldn't want you to be this sad. Especially for today's plans" he walks away.
Timmy finally looks at him "So go up to Miss.Jade's room and put on your tuxedo". Velvet looks at how Timmy's ears slowly start to stand up. "You're about to meet a royal king" he said before turning his head.
Timmy keeps staring at Alfred.
"Plus, Jaune told me to get some ingredients for a cake" that seems to be the push he needs.
Timmy's ears shoot up instantly "REALLY!" his eyes wide from the surge of energy he got.
His actions causes everyone to let out a chuckle or giggle.
"Speaking about Vomite Boy, where is he?" Yang asks. Finally getting over what she witnessed.
"Yes, where is he?" Weiss says, wanting to speak to him in private. Ever since yesterday, she wanted to. But there was never a good time. But after seeing him last night... and hearing how passionate he is... she starts to blush.
Jasmine's eye twitches from hearing a Schnee asking for her son.
"He left" Jade says, trying to cover her brother.
Lizzie furiously nods, wanting to help her friend.
Kali's ears lower a bit from the bad news. She wanted to ask him about that song he sang.
"He's always busy" Jonathan says with a sober tone. Which did not go on notice by Ghira. He stands up "We should probably get ready. So let's go and freshen up before going over to the hotel"
Before anyone else could stand up. Professor Port comes in, with a skip in his step "Morning" he says with a jolly tone. He passes them and leaves to his room.
Everyone just stares at his retreating figure. Before Jonathan breaks the silence "He got lucky... damn" he said in shock.
--
Ren slowly opens his eyes, trying to cover them from the bright rays of light. With any luck, his aura will help him recover from the hangover. Moving to sit up, he notices the paper note that was on his chest. Grabbing it and seeing Nora's handwriting.
Telling him that she's down in the mess hall with Pyrrha. And that she will be waiting for him to eat breakfast.
Ren places the note on the nightstand and gets up. Feeling a little bit sick "What happened last night?" He asks himself. Not remembering drinking anything with alcohol.
He looks for his pants, spotting them near the bathroom door. He goes over, picking them up. To have a note fall out of his pocket.
Feeling weirded out by the way the folded note looks like. Grabbing it and opening, revealing a sealed condom. His eyes go wide from the revelation of it. But what catches his eye is what's on the note.
Steps to conquer that muffin
1. Whisper dirty things into her ear
2. Touch her a little bit around the cheeks or her thighs
3. Suggest your place for an after party
4. Wear grey sweatpants and no shirt, while going commando
The list went on, causing Ren to recognize his handwriting. And that's when he starts getting little bits of memories of last night.
Falling on the bed and dropping the note and the condom. The memories of last night fully came.
Wanting to freak out from knowing what he wanted to try with his girlfriend. But he uses his semblance to keep a calm mind. Taking a deep breath before standing up and going to the restroom. He hits his pinky toe on the door's frame, causing him to curse.
While Ren's having a rough morning. His teammates are enjoying each other's company. With Neon, Flynt, and Pyrrha's mother. Who can't stop from saying how amazing the mess hall looks?
The whole place was packed with many guests for Amethyst and Max's secret wedding. And some fans of Violet's.
"But I don't understand how he got drunk. My Renny doesn't drink... except those nasty drinks he makes" Nora tells them. Before making a disgusted expression from remembering how horrible those green ooze taste.
"Sounds to me that Ren is ready for the next step in your relationship," Neon says. With a smug smile and raising and lowering her eyebrows, suggestively.
Nora turns red from the thoughts of it. And knowing how much Ren flirted last night.
Her train of thought stops when she hears the big doors open. With Oro walking in, and going towards the private room. But stops when he starts to sniff the air.
His action gets everyone's attention, from the way he's sniffing like an animal. Stopping for a second before turning towards Nora's table.
The serious stares he had changed when he spots her. Waving one of his employees to go ahead, that'll he be there soon. And now he's making his way to her. Everyone keeps their eyes on the richest man in Remnant.
"Miss.Valkyrie," he says before stopping next to her. "I thought I recognize that smell," he says.
Which seems to make him out as some kinda pervert. Making some of the girls and women disturbed.
"How was your stay at the hotel?" he asks.
"It was amazing," she tells him.
He looks around the table and sees Pyrrha. "Ah you must be my grandson's partner" he extends his hand towards her. "Oro D'Arc, at your service," he says with a warm smile.
She accepts the hand shake "Pyrrha Nikos, it's a pleasure" she says.
After shaking her hand, he turns to see her mother. That warm smile changes to a seductive smile "And you must be her twin sister"
She blushes before offering her hand "oh my~" he grabs it and turns it. Before planting a kiss on it.
The moment is interrupted by Oro's scroll ringing. "Excuse me" he pulls out his scroll and picks up. "Hello" he starts with a normal expression. And eventually shifts to a disappointed one.
Ending the call and putting away his scroll. "I'm sorry, but I need to discuss a important matter with Ironsood" he tells them, before excusing himself.
"Headmaster Ironwood?" Flynt says
--
Johnny is looking at a image of him and Jinx. Both sitting on a blanket, on top of a hill. In the middle of the night.
He stops looking at the picture. When someone takes a seat next to him. Glancing towards the hands that are resting on the bar. Noticing the black fingernails and white hands.
Finally looking at the person's face. To be met with Fear. With his skin and hair completely white. But what stands out the most is those scales on his cheeks. And piercing red eyes.
"Hi Johnny~" he says
Johnny just stares and chuckles "And to think, you couldn't get uglier"
"Ow" Fear says before reaching for the binder. Opening it and seeing all the faces.
But it doesn't take long for Johnny to take it away from him. By sliding it away from his reach "Hands off" he threatens.
Fear mockingly pouts "Why?, scared that I might ruin it~" his expression changes. He tries again but this time Johnny slams his fist on his hand.
The impact is strong enough to cause his hand to break. Which did nothing to change that smug smile on Fear. Using his other arm, he places the elbow on the bar and rests his chin on his palm.
"But you can't ruin something that's already ruined" he says. Right before his hand starts to split it's self in half.
Johnny looks at it. Seeing black ooze spilling, splashing out. No red blood, just black ooze. So he pulls his fist off and keeps looking at it.
"Ain't that right boys?!" his hand finally split apart. With each part standing up on its fingers. Transforming into a small figure of Johnny and Violet. But their eyes are shining red.
"Yesyesyesyes!" Both scream out. Their eyes trained on Johnny.
Johnny glares at them "What do you want?" he asks. Getting tired of him and theses little freaks.
"Nothing much" he pulls up his stump. Seeing the same ooze coming out. Transforming into a new hand for him "Just wanted to talk to my favorite twin"
"We are not twins"
Fear's hand is complete "Come now, we both are fueled by negative emotions" he starts wiggling his fingers. "And the most important part" he looks at the small figures.
Who go over and open the binder. Stopping at a photo of their family "We ruin the ones we love"
Having had enough of this disrespect. Johnny was about to beat the living shit out of him.
"That includes" the tiny figures change the page. To show a photo of him and Jinx, laying on the roof. "The one you truly loved" he says before getting closer.
"You think you can just be like them" Fear tilts his head. "*chuckle* But you can't" he points at him accusingly. "You're not... they are weak" he points at the binder.
Which the little figures change the page again. Showing his team and team RWBY "Nothing but a herd of sheep". He then points at him and then himself. "We are the wolfs. The ones to devour the weak and make them our play things" his teeth grow even sharper.
"I'm noth-"
"Yes you are!" Fear bares his fangs at him. "You're just confused..." he stops and that vicious expression changes to his regular sinister smile. "A wolf in sheep clothing" he says before music starts playing.
Johnny is confused by this. Only he could do this in here. But his attention moves to the two figures. When he hears one of them.
"(Hahaha, this is about you)" tiny Johnny says to him, while pointing at him.
"Beware, beware, be skeptical. Of their smiles, their smiles of plated gold. Deceit so natural. But a wolf in sheep's clothing is more than a warning" Fear wraps his arm around Johnny. And gestures towards the tiny versions.
"Baa baa, black sheep, have you any soul?" He asks Tiny Johnny.
"No sir, by the way, what the hell are morals?" Then he asks Violet.
"Johnny be nimble, Johnny be quick. Violet's a little whore, and his alibis are dirty tricks" Johnny brushes his arm off.
Fear backs away, with that sinister smile. And drops his hand on top of the binder.
"So could you. Tell me how you're sleeping easy. How you're only thinking of yourself" he opens the binder. And the photos flip quickly.
"Show me how you justify. Telling all your lies like second nature. Listen, mark my words, one day (one day) You will pay, you will pay. Karma's gonna come collect your debt" The small versions move over to the binder. Stopping beside it, and catching one page. Stopping at a photo of him and his little group of friends at Vacuo.
"Aware, aware, you stalk your prey. With criminal mentality. You sink your teeth into the people you depend on. Infecting everyone, you're quite the problem" as he sang that part. The image starts changing to two of them as corpses. And two of them crying and him disappearing. Leaving depress Drake alone.
"Fee-fi-fo-fum, you better run and hide. I smell the blood of a petty little coward" Fear flips the page of Johnny running away from them. Covered in the fresh scars and blood from the Star Massacre.
"Johnny be lethal, Johnny be slick. Jaune will leave you lonely, dying in a filthy ditch. So could you. Tell me how you're sleeping easy. How you're only thinking of yourself. Show me how you justify. Telling all your lies like second nature. Listen, mark my words, one day (one day) You will pay, you will pay. Karma's gonna come collect your debt" Fear then changes the pages, till he lands in Beacon.
"Maybe you'll change. Abandon all your wicked ways. Make amends and start anew again" showing the photos of Wendy, Stacy and their mother. And then his teammates with Team RWBY.
"Maybe you'll see. All the wrongs you did to me. And start all over, start all over again" he gets near his ear. But pushes him to the ground.
Johnny lets himself hit the floor. And looks up at Fear. Who hovers over him, with his teeth sharpening.
"Who am I kidding? Now, let's not get overzealous here" two horns rip out of his forehead.
"You've always been a huge piece of shit. If I could kill you, I would" his eyes shine brighter.
"But it's frowned upon in this mind state. Having said that, burn in hell, yeah" the bar disappears and now the area is set on fire.
"Oh, oh, oh" placing his foot on Johnny's chest.
"So tell me how you're sleeping easy. How you're only thinking of yourself. Show me how you justify. Telling all your lies like second nature. Listen, mark my words, one day (one day)" Johnny remains unfazed by all this.
"You will pay, you will pay. Karma's gonna come collect your debt. Karma's gonna come collect your debt. Karma's gonna come collect your debt" Fear makes a dark dagger appear in his hand. Driving it down to stab Johnny's face.
Who nearly dodges, and kicks him off. Causing Fear to fall off and into the flames
Johnny gets up quickly and looks at the flames. Seeing Fear rising from it. Covered in flames, that start to turn black.
But Johnny didn't care "You come into my place" his body shines red. "And think you could just-" he stops when he feels a slight creek on the wooden floor behind him.
Spinning quickly, to get a surprise. A Beowulf jumps at him.
Quickly he jumps out of the way. And rolls away, but manages to stop himself from falling off. But giving himself a good distance from them. Refocusing his attention at his unwelcome guests.
But that doesn't last long, when Fear is standing face to face with him. "I don't think Johnny" he says before slashing at him.
Johnny dodges his attacks as best as he can. Only getting his shirt and jacket damaged. "I do!" He yells before stabbing him on the shoulder.
Johnny doesn't let it effect him. Grabbing Fear's arm, the one that's holding the blade. He punches him repeatedly, seeing black blood spill from his nose.
Fear catches his next punch and glares into Johnny's own. Both using all their strength on holding each other.
But it doesn't last long, when the Grimm joins in. Going after Johnny, helping its master.
Johnny letting go and using his weight and strength to pull back. Causing Fear to be the one tackled by the Grimm.
Being free from him, Johnny was about to continue. But stops when he feels something or someone, grab him.
And forces him to his knees, and holds his head.
Fear throws the Grimm off and stands up. "It's hopeless Johnny" he says while glaring at him. "You know that our time is nearly up" walking towards him.
Johnny tries to break free but he's weak. Feeling his strength slowly dying.
"And I don't know about you. But I would rather it be me who gets to keep the control" crunching down. "Why let you two fuck ups get the chance" he quickly stands up. "Or those two fakes!" his eyes shine red.
"But don't worry, I'll still keep you around" he moves his hand up. And black ooze starts to bubble out of his palm. Eventually revealing a black crystal ball.
Showing Violet dancing with a Weiss. And then it shows an unconscious Miles inside a cage. Hanging over a pool of that black ooze. "So only one more to go" his eyes move above to see the thing that's holding him.
And that's the last thing he saw. As he felt something jamming to the back of his neck, losing consciousness.

Oro enters the room, to see Pietro and the Ace operatives. Noticing the lack of Ironwood's presence. Causing him to frown.
"I take it that James still hasn't forgiven me for the arm" he says naturally.
"No he hasn't" Pietro is the one to answer.
He goes to take a seat on his chair. "Well then, we should get this over with" Oro says. Grabbing a binder and opening it. To see what Atlas is asking for.
Leaning back on his chair and having a disinterested expression. Looking up to meet Pietro's eyes "This is boring" he says.
This makes Pietro chuckle "My apologizes, I'll remember to add pictures and make it more... basic for you" he says with a small smile.
Oro raises a eyebrow "It's fine... I wouldn't want you to Run ragged" he says. Seeing the Ace operatives expressions. Really makes Oro laugh.
He raises his hand up "Sorry for the insensitive joke... but I'm no Standup comedian"
The whole room is filled with tension. But it doesn't last long, when Pietro lets out a full blown laugh. With Oro joining him.
Oro being the first to recover "It's nice to see you again Pietro" wiping away a tear. "Maybe we could catch up after the party?" He asks.
"I would love that" he says.
Pulling out a checkbook and writing down the amount they are asking for. Once done he rips off the check and puts it inside the binder. "So" he looks at the Ace operatives.
"Oh yes, they are my bodyguards for the time being"
Oro's eyes land on Elm and leans on the table "Aren't you the racist who my Grandson beat in a arm-"
"I'M NOT A RACIST!" she slams her hands on the table.
Her team facepalm at her reaction.
Oro gets off the table and shrugs "Fine... but you did lose to my Grandson" he said. Seeing the way Elm's right eye twitches.
Clover stands up and puts his arm on her shoulder "That's enough, you'll have your rematch with him later".
She calms down and takes her seat and remains quiet.
Oro just lets out a chuckle "Don't worry your head Miss.Ederne" seeing they're confusion. "You never stood a chance against my grandson" he says with so much pride. And ignoring the fact he knows their last names. "The boy is the only person who has ever defeated me in arm wrestling" he said.
To the Ace operatives, it meant nothing, but to Pietro. It spoke values of Jaune's strength.
"Are you serious?" Pietro asks. Having seen Oro's raw strength from his time as a young man.
This seems to trigger Elm "Alright!" She rolls up her right sleeve. "You and me old man" her temper getting the best of her.
His grin stretches to a full blown smile. "Fine, but don't let this deteriorate your pride" he says before removing his blazer.
--
"No!" Jinx is taking out his clothes from his suitcase. Red emotional eyes, filled with desperation and sadness. "You are not leaving, and that's final!" she screams at Johnny.
"I have to" he says. Picking up his thrown clothes and taking them to the suitcase. Which is on a medical bed.
She reaches for them again, but Johnny stops her. By gently grabbing her wrists and pulling them away.
Once he sees her eyes, and how much it's killing him. To see the pain he's inflicting on her. By leaving her behind.
Throwing herself on him, clenching on his shirt. Sobbing on him, letting it all out.
"Mr.Arc, the cab is here for you" someone tells him, behind the door.
Hearing that, causes her to hold him even harder. Not wanting him to leave here.
But Johnny keeps gently pushing her away. "I hav-" he doesn't know how she managed to pull him down for the last kiss.
Feeling all her hope and strength behind it. Wanting this to convince him to stay with her.
Eventually she pulls away to see if that did the trick. But all hopes dies when she feels him pulling away.
Now he's the one fighting to keep his tears from spilling. "I'm sorry" he shakily says.
Closing his eyes and moving away from her.
He's stopped by someone catching his hand. Opening his eyes "Your neck Johnny" someone whispers.
As that confuses him, he now can feel something on the back of his neck, pulsing. So reaching for it, he feels a slimy thing.
Pulling it off his skin, hearing it cry out. Moving it forward to see a Grimm worm. "Wha-" and that's when he realizes.
Crushing the pest, and letting the black ooze spill from his clenched fist. Rage taking over, feeling the pure power cursing through his body.

Violet is parking his grandfather's car at the set. Coming out of the car and going to get changed.
Thankfully the recording didn't take long, since he's working with Aries. She took everything seriously, never wasting time. Just like him... except right this moment.
"I want you!" his makeup artist screams out while sitting on his lap. Her blouse missing three buttons, showing her red bar. And her grinding on him, feeling the beast in his pants.
Violet took off his glasses and had lipstick kisses on his neck, cheeks, and his lips stained. "Are you sure?" he pulls her closer, and she never stops grinding. "Last girl who went against this fella. Ended up in a wheelchair for the whole day~"
Hearing her breathing going rugged and slowing down her action. Dimming her eyes "Show me" she says before closing them completely. And going to capture his lips.
But their little fun stops when someone is knocking on his door. Causing both of them to let out a disappointed sigh. "Who is it?!" Violet shouts.
They separate, with her trying to hide the hikes. And Violet wiped away the lipstick kisses. And placing his left leg on top of his right lap. Covering the wet spots from all that grinding.
"It's me, Max," he says before opening the door. He takes a second to see the girl's blouse, nearly ripped open.
His smile disappears and is replaced with a dull expression. "I came to bring you, your costume for today"
Violet rolls his eyes and slaps the girl's ass, getting a squeal from her. "You're dismissed," he says before standing up. Not caring for the stain on his lap. Which didn't go unnoticed by Max.
She turns to speak but stops when Violet ignores her. Going over to fix himself a drink.
Seeing the hurt look on the girl's face, pisses Max off. Waiting for her to fully leave.
Max closes the door and locks it. "What the fuck is going on with you?" turning to see Violet drinking.
"Nothing just bored out of my mind here. Thought the girl could help with that" he says before taking another sip.
Not liking what he's hearing, he throws the costume at him. Violet doesn't react, letting it fall to the ground. Causing Max to snap "What the fuck is wrong with you Jaune?"
Out of all the things Max was expecting from Jaune. He didn't expect the glass in his hand to fly toward his head. So ducking quickly, managing to escape the hit. But hearing the glass shattering behind him.
His eyes focus on Violet's, seeing the rage in them. Targeting it all towards him "I AM VIOLET!" he screams out.
Rolling up his sleeves "Not Jaune, Miles, or that piece of shit JOHNNY!" his eyes shine that dark gold light. Taking a step forward "So how about you st-"
--
"-op" Violet stops and notices he's in the memory room. Looking around to see the place empty. No Weiss or Miles anywhere.
"Little fucker" Johnny says, before the sound of him crushing something.
Violet turns around to see black goo dripping from his hand "What?"
Johnny looks at the remains of the Grimm worm falling to the floor. "That's one down," he says before looking around.
Violet touches the back of his neck and feels the hole left by the worm. And that is when he remembered Weiss. The moment he kissed her.
His thoughts stop when Johnny grabs him by his shoulders and shakes him. "Where is Miles?!" his voice having a small hint of fear.
"I don't know, he was right-"
He didn't have the chance to finish. As they were trying to figure out where Miles is at. The black ooze started to spread under them. Causing them to fall into the black hole.
--
Jaune's nose starts to bleed black ooze. Falling on one knee and looking around for a split second. "Ho-how did I get here?"
Max looks at the black ooze "Jaune?"
After Jaune calmed down, he explained that he was in his room. And that's the last thing he remembered.
The black blood stopped coming out. And he feels so much better now. Trying to understand what's going on. The nightmares are becoming more frequent. And the last one, having people he didn't recognize. Or that huge purple dragon.
"What should we do?" Max asks him.
Jaune pulls off the wig and glasses "Nothing... we continue normally-"
"Are you crazy?!... black ooze came out of your nose" he says while turning to see the shattered glass and alcohol. And then he looks at Jaune "And that's not including the split personality issue"
Jaune stops from getting off his chair.
Max fixes his tie "I had a hinge... but I didn't want to believe it" he says sadly. Not wanting that theory to be real. But after coming here and hearing from Amethyst how he's been acting. They remain silent for sometime.
But Jaune stands up and picks up the costume Max brought. And opening it to see a jesters costume. Pulling out a envelope that's attached to the bag. Seeing the lyrics from one of his songs. He wrote for his grandma.
Feeling his heart clinching from the emotions he's bottling up. "I said it before... but we don't have to do this. We can cancel the video and-"
"I'm fine" Jaune places the costume on the desk and starts undoing his button up shirt. "I got to see this through" his thoughts move to Timmy. And how much he's been a ray of happiness for him.
"Fine" Max goes towards the door but stops from opening it. "I'll be waiting outside" he leaves.
Jaune looks at the wig and glasses. Taking a deep breath, he continues.
--
Timmy gets out of the limousine and sees the hotel's entrance. Looking both sides, he sees many buses parked. "Timmy honey be careful" Jasmine says.
Lizzie gets off as well and goes to stand next to Timmy. Both wearing fancy clothes. With Timmy wearing a white button up shirt with a baby blue tie and vest. While wearing a brown dress pants and black dress shoes.
Lizzie is wearing a baby blue dress and has her diamond tiara. And to add, Pete is wearing a baby blue blazer.
Eventually everyone goes inside to be met with many children and nuns. And that's not including the teens.
"Father invited a lo-"
"Jonathan"
They all turn to see Willow Schnee, standing there. With her son beside her. And Winter being pushed by Silver.
"Mother?" Weiss says.
Willow doesn't acknowledge her own daughter. She just keeps staring at the first love of her life. Standing there, with his wife.
Who glares daggers at her "What. Is. She. Doing. Here?" Jasmine said.
