Hope you like this ch since it was started literally a few days after I did the last ch. I didn't think this would be so long since it's not actually the entirety of what this was based on but here ya go. I will be doing my others stories after this one is posted so have a good time and let me know how I did since it will help me get batter.

Also the length of each ch will vary depending on what it was. Could be long or short.

The dice finished rolling on the ground as the groans and moans of pain coming from the new people had stopped. Each of them slowly getting up from the floor or just stayed not wanting to move.

"Ah, I haven't had a headache like this since I was still a hunter in training. We had gone for drinks a bit before graduating and let me say that hangover was the worst," Port said as he began rambling on about his youth when he was still in training. He laughed before stopping and holding his head.

"Ugh, will you stop talking?"Oobleck growled as he stayed on the ground holding his head as he laid on his side. He was much more slugging than his usual self which would be speeding around examining everything. He was irritable and suffering from a painful headache due to his withdrawal of caffeine. He had only felt this once while being on a mission and having run out of coffee which never happened. After that, the people that saw him knew he was like a bomb with a two-centimeter fuse that would blow when lit.

"It's the professors?" Ruby asked as they were seeing them all along with Ozpin and Glynda. Then they all saw other people.

"Roman Torchwick? I thought he was locked up?" Blae questioned seeing the criminal on the ground along with a small woman with multi-color hair.

"I feel like an Ursa is on my chest," Mercury groaned out as he laid on the floor with Emerald laying on his chest having landed on top of him on her back.

"It's me," She said as he groaned out again.

"That's even worse than an Ursa," He said pissing Emerald off as Cinder sat up.

"Enough you two," She was annoyed of them acting like children after suddenly waking up in a freefall and landing in some room. It didn't help at all with her head hurting like a thousand drums slowly bating in her skull.

"Aw, is mom having a hard time with the kids?" Roman remarked as Neo sat next to him dizzy while her eyes were shifting color constantly. Emerald sat up off of Mercury as she glared at the orange haired criminal.

"Watch it or else that little ice cream midget isn't even going to be able to save you," She threatened as Neo shook her head and reached for her umbrella finding that it was gone. She looked around as the others soon found that theirs were gone also as a sudden ear piercing sound filled the room making them cover their ears yelling. The noise continued for a minute before stopping and leaving them in silence with a ringing in their ears.

After the ringing stopped they all began looking around to see where they were as both Goodwitch and Ozpin had seen the two teams along.

"What is the meaning if all this?" She questioned standing up along with all the professors as the others that arrived stayed a bit away and keeping to themselves.

"Yes, I would like to be informed of what is happening," Ozpin said as he stood with his hands behind his back not having his cane or mug to hold.

"I believe that we can...try and explain what is happening," Weiss informed them as they began thinking about how they were going to explain this.

(Later)

"I see, so you are saying that we were brought here into this room by a mysterious man in a mask?" Ozpin asked making sure that he had heard them right. Both teams nodded as they all sat down in their seats looked back at their teachers while the others had stayed silent while also listening in on what was going on.

"And you are also saying that this masked man also stripped us of our weapons and is keeping them on his person?" Port said as he raised a brow finding that interesting as the man sounded like a worthy hunt or battle.

"And now we have to sit here in this room and watch the life that Mr. Arc has lived or will live in other worlds or our own?" Miss Goodwitch asked as she crossed her arms looking around the room seeing the theater look as there was an upper floor with tables for some reason.

"That's about it," Yang said as she pointed over at the dice that lay on the ground, "He said that if we're going to see the next world after the one we just saw then we have to role them, I already did so I guess when we are ready we will see whatever the world is that Jaune is in." Yang put her arm down as they all let the information process as the teachers took their seats. The criminals also took their own seats wondering why they were even here since they never even heard of Jaune Arc.

The lights dimmed as they were all now seated and the projector slowly began starting up again.

As the screen light up they could see a large kingdom that looked to have been built long ago. At the center of the kingdom, there was a large tower that flashed with a blue color as the sound of metal banging could be heard. The light was illuminating the sky as the screen was shifted inside the tower as a man wearing blacksmithing clothing, that consisted of leather and a metal belt that wrapped around his waist with marking all over it while his arms were sleeveless, worked over an anvil as the hammer in his right hand smashed down against the red glowing metal of a blade that was held by metal clamps in his left hand.

He forged the blade until it was complete with an intricate design running down the center of the blade. The blade was sharp to the touch as he lifted it up to the hilt and inspected his own craftsmanship. His blue eyes scanning the blade for any signs of imperfection. He then placed the blade down against the anvil as he picked up a chisel and placed it against the blade and started carving words into the blade that were in a completely different language as they seemed to glow as he worked on them.

"So I take it that this is the guy, Jaune?" Roman asked as he pulled a cigar out of its case and placed it in his mouth. He then cut the tip off before he lit it taking a drag from it while Neo sat next to him looking at the blade thinking of how much it could cut rather than her own blade.

"If you mean my student, then yes, but it seems that he is not a warrior in this world but instead a very skilled blacksmith, while almost being older than he is now," Ozpin said as he sat with his hands down in his lap. He wanted his mug of coffee but he had no clue where he could get it, the same for Oobleck who wanted his caffeine while suffering his withdrawal

"How can you tell old Juane is some skilled blacksmith?" Yang questioned as she looked at the metal of the blade seeing no scratches or dents from when it was being made.

"Well if you had the eye for such a thing like your sister then you would be able to tell." He said as he looked over pointing at the red hooded huntress who was looking at the blade like she did when looking at cookies.

"I've never seen the craftsmanship of that level when making old weapons, the skilled smithing, careful engraving!" She yelled as she was slightly drooling.

Cinder was watching the man work on the weapon as she knew that there was more to it than just an appearance. From the in scripture that he was putting on the blade there was a power behind it, the power she did not know but she would keep in mind to watch and see what it is and see if it could be recreated or put to use by Salem.

Mercury put his hands behind his head as he had a bored expression on his face. He put his leg on his knee not really impressed.

"What's the big deal? So he can make a bunch of old weapons, couldn't do much against guns or explosives," He remarked as most ignored him while Ruby shot a glare wishing she had her baby so she could show him what a blade can do.

"I wouldn't doubt what a blade can do Mercury, whatever it is he is doing that blade has more hidden within with that power," Cinder said as she watched the letters glow with a blue color as he completed it.

As he finished the inscription he placed the tools back in their places and lifted it as he heard someone enter. Looked to see a soldier wearing armor that had more patterns in it as it symbolized the kingdom. The soldier then got on his knee before Jaune as he places blade down on the anvil.

"Forgive me for my intrusion my lord, but there has been a request for your presence," The soldier said as the man moved closer to him looking down. He held his hand out towards him

"Rise, soldier," He ordered and the man stood standing up at attention as he kept his hands at his side.

"Who is it that has requested my presence?" He asked as the soldier reached into his pocket and pulled out a parchment that was sealed shut with a wax stamp. He took the parchment from the soldier and broke the seal opening it as the words were unreadable to those watching. His eyes read every word as until he finished and placed the parchment down on a wooden table.

"Alright, inform them that I shall arrive shortly and that they are to enter the main hall."

"Yes, my lord. I understand," The soldier marched out leaving him as he reached around and removed his leather apron and placed it on a rack. He then began walking out as the screen faded again before showing the man sitting upon a throne that had a design that made the metal seem like vines as they arched over him while dressed in armor that protected him while a metal crown that also resembled vines sat upon his head going all around his head. The blade that he had forged sat at his side next to his leg.

"Wait he's a lord!?" Weiss yelled in shock as her jaw hung open watching as their own friend or the version of him that was much older, was the ruler of an entire kingdom. His appearance was not of what the had seen from the blond goof that wore a black hoodie and jeans with his dorky smile. The man on the screen showed power and authority over his kingdom and its rule.

"Uh oh, looks like Pyrrha is starting to have some competition~," Yang said as she teased Weiss who was staring at the screen before her words kicked in and she blushed red glaring daggers at the blonde.

"Take that back this instant, Xiao Long!" She yelled with red still shading her cheeks while Yang just laughed at her reaction.

"I never thought that I would see such an appearance from Mr. Arc," Ozpin said as each one of the teachers agreed with him as they knew his abilities in combat and academics. He was average in his studies, but combat was below average when putting up against another student.

"Hey with the way he looks on that throne he looks like that chick Cinder listens to," Mercury said to Emerald before being jabbed in the side making him shut up for almost giving out that info.

He looked over at a woman and a younger girl that was dressed very similar while they smiled at him. He smiled back as he saw the girl look towards the large door with a worried expression making him turn his head and look to see the sender of the parchment that requested his audience. The wore white robes as the hood was drawn over their head while an object wrapped in white cloth was held in their hand. The person in robes slowly walked towards him as the guards all stood along the sides watching them for anything that could happen.

As they got closer he held up his hand making them stop.

"What is your business here?" He asked as the person slowly reached up and pulled the hood back to reveal white hair and pale skin like his own before looking up at him with fiery orange eyes that glowed before stopping.

"I have come with a gift for the lord of this kingdom," She said unwrapping the object and removing it from the cloth. She then held it up towards him as he leaned in looking at the silver hammer that was expertly crafted with engraving running down the handle and head.

As he looked at it his eyes glowed blue from the amazement of such a gift.

"It is so fine a gift…" He reached out and picked it up from her hands as he stood up from his throne. His eyes inspected the tool and read what was written on the handle.

"What is it that you seek?" He questioned as the woman looked up at him smiling.

"She doesn't seem very trustworthy," Blake said as she watched the look in the woman's eyes glowing the deep orange eyes that resembled fire.

"I don't like the look in her eyes, they are like fires that cause nothing but pain and destruction," Nora said making all her friends look at her with wide eyes and raised brows while confusion covered their faces.

Ozpin had his hand on his chin as he focused on that woman's face. She looked familiar from somewhere, it was as if she had seen her and knew exactly who she was, but he couldn't figure out who she was. The eyes were even making him frustrated as he had seen that look before and knew that it would only bring destruction to the man before them on screen.

"So even in another world she still is the same as she is now…" Cinder whispered as she saw the woman on screen that she knew, but only the eyes were different. She wondered what this version had planned.

The scene was shifted again to later as they both could be seen walking out onto a large open balcony as they turned facing each other. He had his hand up holding his chin thinking before his blue eyes looked into her's as he slowly reached his hand out and she did the same. They grabbed their arms in an agreement while the scene shifted again to much later as he was no longer wearing his armor, but was once again wearing his blacksmith clothes as the leather was covered in old burns and cuts.

He was standing over a mold as he held a large metal clamp that held a large stone cup that was filled with molten metal he poured into the center of a mold very slowly as the woman stood next to him watching. He was slow and careful as he watched the molten metal travel through the mold from the center. The metal moved through the lines as if making a star until it finally touched the edges where there were seven circles that flashed blinding the screen.

Once the flash was gone they could see seven rings with gems in them as he began to use his hammer and chisel to break the mold around them carefully so that they were not damaged. Once he was complete he used the metal tong to carefully pick up each ring and place them down on the anvil for the woman to see. She picked up one of the rings and looked it over inspecting every marking that covered the sides that resembled a person in armor with their language carved into the metal along with the gem that rested at the top glowing slightly.

She held it in her hand as she closed it and looked up at the man as he stood there waiting.

"Only you could accomplish such art, Jaune Arc." She said as the screen faded to Jaune as he was creating more rings for the woman who was nowhere to be seen.

As he was working he suddenly saw flashes of a ring that was made of tungsten like all the others that he had created, but this one was different. He suddenly stopped as his eyes began glowing brightly and he could see the inside of a mountain as a path lead out towards the center where a person in armor stood holding the same hammer that he used to forge the rings, and in the person's hand he saw the ring that was in his visions glowing a bright color as if it was fire with the language written all around it.

As he shook his head he looked out of the window to see the same light shining brightly in the distance.

"He has been tricked," Oobleck said as he sat perfectly fine with a mug of his special brew. He took another sip as the two teams looked back at him.

"What do you mean professor?" Ruby questioned as she had a bad feeling about what she had seen.

"It is exactly as he said Miss Rose, whoever that woman was had deceived this version of Mr. Arc into creating her those rings for her. What purpose that those rings serve - I cannot tell you - but it seems that he has just learned about the truth of what she was doing," He took a sip from his mug as he finally felt a bit better having something in his hand.

"It seems that he may be expecting a fight very soon, but the question is can he win this fight?" Port was serious in his question as he knew that the thing in that world was serious, this was no movie they were watching. They were watching the life of a man. This was real and whatever happened will decide the fate of that entire kingdom and the innocent lives followed by whatever else after that.

"I do agree with you my old friend, it reminds me of Mt. Glen all over again. But much worse," Oobleck sipped his mug as his eyes watched the screen waiting for what was to happen.

"I hope that he is alright…" Pyrrha said as both teams were beginning to get worried.

"Now this is getting interesting," Roman said as he propped his leg up on the back of the seat in front of him. He looked over at Neo to see her eating a bowl of ice cream.

"How'd you get that?" He questioned her as it seemed like she suddenly found that.

"Cinder is this the same thing that she is planning?" Emerald asked her boss being as silent as possible. Cinder, on the other hand, was wondering what this version was planning.

It changed once again as they could see that Jaune had taken his family back to the main hall as he was dressed in his armor with a bow and quiver on his back. The sword that he had created also sat on his back as his soldiers all stood guard with shields against the main door that was being bashed against.

"Oh no," Ruby said as the others thought the same thing.

"It seems that their battle had begun, and they are loosing," Port said as he had seen these situations before, himself being in them himself.

Jaune had cuts and bruises on his face showing the signs of battle as the gates were suddenly blown open and his soldiers were sent flying as smoke filled the place and strange creatures wearing armor made of metal or bone began storming into the hall. Jaune quickly reached back grabbing his bow and two arrows as he aimed them ahead and pulled back before releasing them, the arrows flew through the air at high speed.

The first arrow stuck one of the disgusting creatures through its skull and made it fall back as the black blood spewed out. The second arrow then stuck another through its mouth making it fall as its head was spun around landing on the floor as more of them kept coming. As they fell more just kept coming leaving him no time to keep using his bow.

He put the bow back and began running as he drew the blade and quickly ran to face them all. He ran for the first one, that wore bone armor and held a spear, and slashed his blade down slicing through the bone armor and spewing the things back blood across the ground before quickly spinning around and cutting the next one almost in half using the momentum to keep his swings going strong. The creature was sent flying as he did not stop. He quickly raised his blade and slashed down cutting through the shoulder and chest of the next one killing it instantly as the metal was cut like paper.

"Come on Jaune you can do it!" Nora yelled out at the screen as they saw him fight the creatures. Each one of them from both teams and his teachers were all watching as he took on an army that was attacking his kingdom and winning.

"The man will go down fighting," Ozpin stated watching as they kept flooding in. He had seen so many who had fought to their last breath in order to protect those who couldn't protect themselves. He frowned slightly as he began remembering the ones that he had found after their battles, or what was left of them.

"Look out!" Pyrrha yelled seeing one of the creatures swinging an ax for his head.

He looked ahead to see the ax and quickly ducked under the blade as he swung at the next one slicing open its belly spilling more of their black guts. He then turned his blade as he spun around and faced the one with the ax and thrust his blade up piercing its throat as he looked into its eyes as he forced it in deeper making the thing drop its weapon and fall back before he ripped it out. He spun around and stabbed another through its abdomen quickly pulling it out and pushing the dead creature away as he swung down again slicing through another one of them as he gripped the hilt with both hands and swung again taking its head clean off its shoulders.

He spun past the body and stabbed another as he let go and grabbed it again pulling it out so that he held the blade facing the ground. As he pulled the blade out from the body letting it drop he spun around once more dodging the blades and spears coming his way as he cut one clean in half separating its legs from the body while spinning the blade in his hand and jumping into the air at the last creature and forcing the blade down into the metal chest piece making sparks fly as he broke through and forced it to the ground as he held the blade through its heart. Once it stopped moving he stood up and pulled the sword out, it was coated with the black blood that was dripping off the metal.

"Did he do it? Is it over?" Nora asked seeing that they were all dead.

"No, he did not," Port stated pointing at the entrance.

"It seems that she has returned for something," Goodwitch said while they all kept a close watch on the screen.

Ozpin finally realized who that woman was and his hand was gripping his arms rest hard as it slightly shook. No matter where she is Salem causes nothing but destruction and death, however, she tricked him Ozpin felt sorrow that he was pulled into her lies and was too late to realize what had happened. He just remained silent in his seat watching as the scene played out.

"I guess this version takes matters into her own hands…" Cinder watched as this version of Salem stormed the kingdom bringing it to its knees with her own army of creatures that were completely different than Grimm. They could actually thing and fight on their own, she should inform her of such a thing when she returns.

As he looked around for more Jaune was pushed back by a strong force as he kneeled stopping himself from sliding across the ground as he saw a blinding light from the entrance. From the blinding light smoke came through as a large body of armor was walking in past all the dead soldiers and warriors as the mace was covered in their blood.

As he saw this his hand gripped his sword harder and he stood up from the ground.

"Deceiver!" He yelled with rage filling his voice as he ran towards the large armored beast and jumped ready to cut its head from its shoulders, but as he swung Salem had done the same thing and was faster and the large mace smashed into his side sending him flying. He tumbled to the ground until he stopped and was not moving until he twitched and began slowly pushing himself up coughing as he grunted holding his side feeling the warmth of his own blood.

He looked up to see the Urik-hai taking away his wife and daughter as they looked back at him scared. He held his hand out to them but was stopped as three more came over and grabbed his arms holding him on his knees as he watched them be taken away.

"Release my wife and child, Uruk-hai!" He struggled against them so that he could save them, but his struggling did nothing as he was forced to look up at the armored being before him.

"Take him to Mordor," Salem said as her voice was distorted and deeper as he was knocked out by one of the Uruk-hai and the screen was made black.

"What that can't be all that's going to happen to him!?" Pyrrha yelled panicked as she felt a flush of emotions from what she had seen. She had to watch as Jaune fought for his family only to be defeated by the woman who tricked him into doing horrible things.

What she had made him do none of them were sure but from the reactions that they had and her attack on Jaune's kingdom.

"Whoa calm down P-money, look the screen is still on so it ain't over yet," Yang said trying to calm the spartan as they were just as tense wanting to know what was going to happen to him. Hopefully, nothing bad but they just had to keep watching.

"Yes Miss Nikos," Goodwitch said getting her attention as she fixed her glasses. "We will see what is going to happen, all we have to do is be patient."

"I feel pity for the guy," Emerald said to herself as she never really had a family so to watch as one was ripped apart like that it kind of made her feel strange. She had killed before, but she had never done something like that, ripping a family apart since most people she killed was whoever crossed Cinder and the only ones that did that were dumbass morons.

"Guy got played, should have been smarter," Roman said as he blew his smoke up into the air and received a glare from all of Jaune's friends as Ren held back Nora who wanted to beat him with her bare hands and make him take it back.

"All we can do is sit here and watch what happens, even if we don't like it," Weiss said as the teams agreed and Nora was sad as this made old memories resurface.

It shifted months later as Jaune had been tortured beyond all manner that would break any man. Once he was broken he was taken to Salem and forced onto his knees like before within the mountain as the Uruk-hai held him down, his hair was pulled back making him look up. As he was held Salem stood at the anvil that was shaped differently with a circle of writing in the center. She walked towards him as the armor began to fade away and she was walking towards him in her white robes, her right hand wore the ring she had created. It's light shining bright like the fires below them as she reached out and touched his face making him look at the ring before slowly pulling it away as she began speaking in some language.

"Ash nazg durbatulûk, ash nazg gimbatul, ash nazg thrakatulûk," Jaune was shaking his head trying to fight what she was doing to him as her words made their way deep into his mind confusing him and twisting his thoughts. He kept trying to fight it until he let his head hang and he repeated the last line she said.

"...agh burzum-ishi krimpatul." His eyes were glowing blue under her control, once he was the Uruk-hai released him and he stood up looking at Salem as she handed him the hammer that she had offered him as a gift when they first met. He took the hammer from her hand and followed her towards the anvil where she removed the ring and placed it down on the center where Jaune began to work on it using the hammer and a silver chisel.

"What has she done to him?" Blake said as some of them were in shock from his condition. He was beaten to the point of death several times for months until finally he was taken to her like a piece of meat ready to be cooked.

"Miss Belladonna the only thing that I can tell you is that she had dominated his mind so that he will bend to her will,"Oobleck said as he pushed his glasses up.

"W-what do you mean she dominated his mind?" Ruby asked afraid of what he might answer as her hands were picking at the ends of her skirt from the sign of nervousness.

"It means that she took his mind little red and made him her little toy," Roman interjected cutting in. He held the cigar in his mouth as he continued on.

"She had him tortured so that his mind would be weak for when she did her little trick on him, much easier than if he had the will to fight against her, you see what she did is no different than what we 'criminal scum' do when we want somebody to talk and tell us what we want." He said as he had seen Neo and many others do it all the time depending on what they wanted.

As he finished he sat back taking another drag from his cigar finishing it up and placing it in the ashtray that was next to him, how it got there who knew.

Oobleck remained seated as he released a breath.

"Yes, Miss Rose. As he put it she broke his will to fight in order to make him do what she wanted much easier."

"It is a sick and twisted thing to do," Weiss said while many of them agreed with her as Cinder's group found the whole event interesting.

The days passed as Jaune worked on the ring while Salem helped him. He tapped the chisel with the hammer creating more engravings all around it while the color flashed both blue and orange from their power being placed into the ring. Jaune's power was being used to perfect the ring adding to the power that Salem had placed inside the ring.

His eyes continued glowing blue under her control as he finished the last mark and stepped back. Salem picked up the ring with the metal tongs and inspected it smiling as the power inside the ring had been perfected.

As she inspected it Jaune had kept his eyes on it also as it began changing from its orange glow to a deep blue making her wide-eyed as the glow left Jaune's eyes and he raised his hand suddenly slipping the ring onto his own finger and disappeared. As he was gone Salem was filled with rage as she changed into her armor growing taller and bigger, her mace slammed down on the anvil sending sparks everywhere while searching for him.

"Arc!" She yelled in rage as he appeared behind her crouched, she saw him and pulled her mace back to smash his side but he was gone instantly. She continued looking around as Jaune appeared behind a pillar near the entrance as he looked down at the ring on his finger. He looked back at Salem as she searched for him yelling in rage before he began running away escaping from her.

He exited the mountain and kept running as he made it to the cliff. He did not stop running and jumped off falling down the mountain towards the remains of what was once a kingdom.

As he fell he turned around and kept his feet to the ground before landing on the ground hard. He landed perfectly fine before instantly sprinting at high speeds and running past all of them as his eyes glowed brightly.

"He was able to break her control!" Nora yelled happily as she saw her friend and leader escape from that horrible woman.

"I can't believe it," Oobleck said as he was happy for the man as he was able to regain his freedom and escape, but he was in shock as the mind was a powerful thing that was difficult to be broken, but when it was it was almost impossible to fix.

"Atta boy go run!" Port yelled not at all finding him a coward for running. He was outmatched and in bad condition while possessing the one thing that may help him.

"Go Jaune go!" Ruby and Yang cheered as they were all feeling a sudden rush of happiness while he escaped from that woman.

Ozpin himself was releasing a breath that he didn't realize he was holding in. Jaune was able to escape from Salem which was a difficult task, but he knew that she would want what he stole from her which still made him worried.

"Well, he has the skill, I'll give him that," Roman said giving him credit for playing along acting like her puppet only to steal the ring right from in front of her. That look reminded him of every person that he has stolen from with that look of shock then rage.

Jaune had run for days hiding from the search parties that Salem sent after him as the Uruk-hai tore the land apart searching for him. He sat in an old destroyed tower as he hid from the latest search party sent after him. He hid behind a destroyed wall waiting for them to leave.

Once they were gone he began pacing as he thought of what to do now that his body had been healed.

"Salem's army is without numbers, my kingdom lay in ruins and my family in chains…" He stopped and looked at the ring on his finger as it began glowing brighter.

"And yet...in The One, I have a weapon that could reforge my fates, and illuminate the path through this darkness." He looked out at the mountain as the fires spewed from the top. He walked towards the edge and jumped off landing right where the search party could see him. The first to see him was an Uruk-hai wearing body armor and carrying a shield and spear.

"There he is!"

"After him!"

They all charged towards him as he held up his hand and looked at the ring once more before he put it down and drew the blade that he had reclaimed along with his bow from an Uruk-hai that dared try and make it into their own weapon. He stayed standing there not moving an inch as the first one wielding dual axes swung for his head.

"Oh no!" Ruby yelled covering her eyes in fear of what will happen.

"Relax Miss Rose I believe he knows what he is doing," Ozpin said smirking behind his mug watching the eyes of Jaune.

Jaune disappeared as the Uruk swung at the air before looking around confused.

"Where did the filthy tark go!?" He yelled before instantly jerking as they all looked to see Jaune standing with his blade through his neck as the ring glowed brightly as he ripped it out and decapitated him. Once he did he was instantly gone again.

"Keep your eyes," The one yelling was instantly silenced as Jaune slashed down at his legs and then decapitated him making them all panic. They all tried to run but they were all killed in the blink of an eye with limbs severed and arrows in their skulls as the black blood covered the earth.

A single Uruk was left as he looked around scared taking steps back before suddenly stopping and began gurgling his own blood. He looked to his left to see the blond man standing the opposite direction that he was facing as the blade went through the left side of his neck as his hand gripped the handle of the blade.

Jaune took a few steps forwards making the Uruk-hai take them back until he ripped the blade from his neck and slashed once more sending his head into the air. Jaune left the body to fall as he flicked his blade making all the black blood come off before placing it back in the hilt on his back and the markings of the blade stopped glowing.

"OMG!" Nora yelled in amazement from what Jaune had just done. She grabbed Ren by his shoulder and began shaking him.

"REN DID YOU SEE WHAT REN JUST DID!?" She yelled making him stop her as he was completely dizzy and felt sick.

"Yes, Nora I did."

"It seems that Mr. Arc is now a much more skilled fighter with that ring," Port said admiring how he swiftly took down every last one of them.

Jaune looked down at another search party as he began heading towards them.

'I have a power greater than death. I will forge these Uruk-hai into an army of my own. As the first Dark Lord tortured and corrupted the humans, I will redeem them in flame. They will be MINE!' He thought as he hid within a bush as they began to split up and search around for him.

"Wait how is he going to make them his?" Yang questioned.

"I think we are about to see, look," Blake said pointing up at the screen.

Jaune held up his hand as the ring glowed and an Uruk with a shield looked over in his direction. It looked around before walking over to inspect what it was, but once the Uruk stepped near the bush Jaune stood up and grabbed the side of his face making the ring glow brightly as the sound of his flesh burning could be heard.

He stayed like this before Jaune pulled his hand away and his eyes were glowing blue while there was a glowing handprint on his face that faded away until it was gone.

He stopped shaking his head and looked around before seeing Jaune, he just began turning around and walking away.

"What did he do?" Weiss said in amazement as to what had just happened.

"He did exactly what the woman had done to him. He has taken their minds and made them his, so now they will walk around ignoring him until he needs them." Oobleck said while Cinder was watching the power that he wielded in his hand. Being able to take over anything and make it his own would be a very large advantage for their plans in Beacon and the tournament.

Juane continued taking each one until he had enough that would draw out the captain. Once he was prepared he held up his hand as the light glowed bright and all the Uruk that he commanded began to fight against the others that he did not control. The place had become a bloodbath with each other killing each other.

While the fighting continued until he heard a loud voice.

"WHAT IS GOING ON HERE!?" A large Uruk-hai wearing large armor that covered more of his body along with red paint appeared followed by two others.

"WHY ARE YOU ALL FIGHTING!?" He questioned as suddenly he hears the sound of a blade slicing flesh and he looked back to see Jaune killing the Uruk that followed him. he ripped the blade from the neck of one bodyguard before he quickly tossed a dagger and hitting right into his skull making him fall back.

"MAN-SWINE!" He as yelled Jaune just looked at him still holding his blade.

"What do you think to accomplish here? You are a dirty thief! True power belongs to the dark lord!"

"The Dark Lord will fall by my hand." He said as he disappeared and appeared slashing down on the captain's shoulder. But instead of slicing through him the captain stopped it with his hand and pushed it back as he swiped with his spear only to miss as Jaune rolled back and disappeared again.

"It seems that her captain is much stronger than the regular ones he has been slaying." Oobleck pointed out as he had seen Juane take out many of them with an attack like that.

"I must be that she has made ones of higher ranks stronger than the grunts," Ozpin said speaking with Oobleck.

As he looked around he was suddenly being attacked by arrows that came from nowhere as Jaune fired them at different positions. They continued flying before he had them in all vital points on his body and he fell to his knees as the blond appeared before him. He looked up at Jaune weak as his blood dripped to the ground below him.

"The...dark lord….shall have your head on...a pike while your family...is flayed alive…" He growled out before Jaune raised his blade and smashed it against the shield that the captain raised trying to save himself before Jaune sliced through it and slammed it down on his skull killing him before finally decapitating him.

Once the captain was dead he raised his hand up and smashed it down into the ground as a ring of blue fire ran across the land and any Uruk that was left was placed under his control.

"Spectacular work!" Port said clapping his hands impressed by his skill and fighting prowess reminding him of himself when he is fighting Grimm.

"Do you think Jaune can take back his family and kingdom?" Ruby asked Goodwitch who was surprised that she would ask her since she seemed to be scared of her, especially during her lecture that she would give them due to their antics and problem causing.

"Well...I can't be for certain, but from what I have seen I believe that Mr. Arc could be able to take back his family." She said honestly as Ruby smiled and looked up at the screen as Jaune was rallying his Uruk.

Jaune looked over his new soldiers of Uruk-hai that would serve him with undying loyalty. This was the beginning of his growth, but he will need more troops which means he must capture captains and Warchiefs if he is to fight against Salem and her army.

He held his hands high as he spoke out to them all.

"You will build a tower in MY name! Erect a monolith for your Bright Lord in defiance to the shadow!" His voice boomed throughout the land as all the Uruk heard his order as the began building his tower.

"He has begun his rise against her," Ozpin said as he waited to see how this would turn out as Salem was never one to lose or take defiance kindly

"Come on Jaune take her down!" His friends cheered on watching.

"Cinder you know that this will end badly for him right?" Emerald asked as she knew Cinder knew more about that woman who orders her around.

"Yes it will not, she is now one who takes kindly towards defiance and theft of her property," Cinder said as she witnessed what one had received after defying her. The horrible scene still plaguing her mind and any that saw it.

Weeks passed as the tower was constructed by the Uruk that stood high into the sky. Once it had been completed Jaune had taken to the top where an anvil of his own design stood on the center. He raised his hammer high and slammed it down against the metal as his power flooded the tower and purifying the land all around him as he began hearing a voice.

"Silver hand!" Salem's voice growled in his head as he stood atop his tower. He walked towards the edge looking out into the distance at the fiery volcano where she resides.

"You dare stay in Mordor. You think to challenge me here, but you will fail. Your spirit will never see the Halls of Mandos." She said as he held his hand up making the ring glow brightly.

"Without the One Ring, You are nothing! I will tear down Barad-dur and rebuild Eregion in the ruins. Release my family and I may let you serve me...Bringer of Gifts." He spat out the name that Salem used to trick him before he found out who she really was.

"You cannot resist my power, Silver hand. I can feel your rage. Your hate. Your pride. Your flames feed nothing, but evil." She told him.

"You know nothing of true power, Salem! The Light will always prevail! All who resist will be burned by it!" He said as he cut off her voice and jumped from his tower to continue his growth.

"Haha, that's it show her no fear, my lad!" Port shouted out as he was standing up against the woman instead of getting down on his knees like most men.

"Yea Jaune go and break their legs!" Nora yelled while she had a bag of popcorn.

"Hey, where did you get that?" Ruby yelled seeing the popcorn.

"I was hungry and the robot arm brought it."

"What arm?" She asked while Nora pointed after shoveling more popcorn into her mouth. Ruby looked and saw an arm with a platter that had strawberries on it.

"Cool!"

"Quiet look!" Weiss said pointing at the screen.

The screen showed them glimpses of Jaune as he captured more Uruk-hai to fight for him as they all served him. He had broken each one of them making them weak before they were branded by his power and built more of his towers to insult and challenge the Dark Lord.

He had even slaughtered many of Salem's Warchiefs and captains that he found weak and unworthy of being in his army as an insult to her.

But finally, during his latest attack, Salem had had enough and called to him.

"ENOUGH! I will end you myself. Nothing will prepare you for what comes next." She said as he ripped the blade out of her latest champion that was sent to kill him. He held it up as the engravings were glowing while blue flames covered it. He looked up at the mountain that he had escaped from years ago.

"Come face me Salem! Let us end this once and for all! YOU WILL BE DESTROYED!" He yelled as his army all cheered out behind him following as he marched towards the mountain.

"Look at the size of that army," Weiss said in aw as she saw the many different types of creatures that followed him. Large hulking monsters that were covered in spikes as there were many riding beasts called 'Caragors'. Then in the skies he had,

"Dragons!" Nora yelled watching as the flying beasts flew around spewing fire and roaring.

"Ren, I want one!" She yelled.

"They don't exist here, Nora." He said which made the pink bomber sad whining before munching on her popcorn.

"He may just be able to do it," Ozpin said impressed by the army that he has forged for himself.

Jaune's army stood waiting to attack as Salem's army was just as prepared. He stood directly at the front along with his strongest Warchiefs that served him as he called out an challenging her.

"Face me, Salem!"

As he waited an eye made of flames appeared as the woman walked out wearing the dark armor standing in her real form.

"You will give me what is mine, Silver Hand!" She ordered as he slammed his foot down on the ground.

"You have no claim deceiver! I AM THE TRUE LORD OF THE RING!" He yelled out as he made his army roar out and charge into battle. He uses the ring to cut his way through the enemy as he made his way towards Salem as she continued speaking to him.

"Return to me what is mine betrayer. I taught you everything, without me you are nothing! The ring will never serve you. Every moment you resist, your family will suffer," She said as he slammed his hand against the ground and took more of her army as the flames washed over them.

"Silence, deceiver! I forged the rings, I perfected The One! You will bow before me!" He yelled as he charged towards her and jumped into the air before he seemed to jump once more as a gust of wind pushed him higher into the air and he landed on the ground before standing up and facing Salem. They stood looking at one another as the Uruk-hai fought around them.

"You have abandoned all reason human. You cannot hope to stand against me, there is no victory here for you, only death." She said as her mace was covered in the orange flames while Juane held up the blade that he had forged all those years ago and the blue flames washed over it as the engravings he created for his family were glowing brightly.

"You know who I am Salem, do you not even dare not even say my name?" He asked her as he turned the blade and tilted his head mocking her.

"You put too much of yourself into the ring, you are right to fear me." He threatens as he began walking in a circle as Salem did the same.

"What are they doing?" Ruby asked confused.

"They are sizing each other up, this will be the final battle that will decide the fate of whoever wins and who loses," Ozpin said watching intently as his eyes narrowed watching.

"He will win he is stronger than her! Nora shouted as even the criminals were watching this battle that will decide the fate of this world.

"You are vain, fall on your knees before me. And I shall make the death of your wife and child quick and painless. They may return to the western shore as we stay here together." She told him while the fires of his blade began to grow hotter.

"You are the master of lies, you think I am a fool enough to believe that they still live!? After what you did to Eregion!? You will be banished to oblivion, while their spirits walk the Wastern Shore!" He yelled as he disappeared and instantly appeared at Salem's side as his blade was plunged deep into her side making her growl as the black blood poured out. She raised her mace and swung down he jumped backflipping out of the way before drawing his bow and firing it hitting directly between the slits of her mask striking her face.

He took the chance to rush and slam his blade against her armor cutting enough to hit skin and pull away cutting more as he spilled her blood. He was then struck by the mace and sent flying before he fixed himself and stood up as she pulled the arrow out and crushed it in her hand.

"Your family will die, you will know nothing but hatred and despair, you will know darkness!" She said as they continued fighting while Jaune landed hit after hit cutting through her armor. She then began blocking his attacks with her mace sending sparks flying while the war went on around them.

As the fight went on he used the ring to disappear as he began cutting weak spots such as her sides and ankles making her fall to her knee. As he attacked her making her kneel as he shouted his rage.

"I will know victory, I will know glory, I will know revenge!" He finished as she stayed on one knee and he stood before her raising his blade pulling back.

"And you will know subjugation by my hand!" He stabbed the blade deep into her chest piercing her heart as he pushed it deeper until the hilt stopped his blade.

"Yes, Jaune did it!" Ruby cheered as she saw the final blow until a hand was on her shoulder.

"No Ruby, it's not," Blake said while she pointed up at the screen with a worried expression.

"Arrogant fool," Salem spoke out as she grabbed his neck and made him pull the blade from her chest. She began slowly standing up lifting him up while chocking him.

"Do you really think you can defeat me so easily?" She tossed him down to the ground, he rolled on the ground before getting back on his feet looking up at her.

"What's yours, has always been mine!" She yelled as the flames grew brighter and he looked out to his army as the blue light left them and his control over them was broken.

"The Dark Lord has purged us of these twisted lies!" One of his Warchief yelled pointing their weapon at him.

"Destroy the human!" He ordered as they charged at him and Salem disappeared to let her minions tear him apart.

"What!?" The teams shouted as the teachers all sat there with neutral expressions.

"W-what happened!?" Pyrrha yelled as they watched Jaune having to fight against two armies that were ordered to kill him.

"There are no rules in fighting or war, Port said as he glared watching the man currently being overpowered by the armies as he kept killing them all.

"Couldn't have said it any better," Roman said as he grabbed a glass of whiskey and took a sip.

"You will never leave this land, I will bind your soul to Mordor. You will find no release, no peace, no victory. You will never see your family again." Salem said within his mind as he held up his bow and disappeared until he then appeared on the head of a drake and taking it back as his own.

He began flying around using the drake to burn down the Uruk-hai dwindling their numbers as many of the beasts were still under his command.

He made them all turn on the Uruk-hai and make it a slaughter while he flew up towards the mountain where he could see Salem standing at the peak watching him.

He used his bow to shoot and balls of fire that were sent his way in an attempt to stop him while kept pushing forward. The creatures of this land killing everything in their path as he went to finish off The Dark Lord.

"We will flay your corps for all of Mordor to see, your skin will fly in the wind as a flag to your failure." She said as Jaune jumped off the drake and landing on the ground as he stood weak, just as Salem was the same.

"There will be no limit to my power! All will tremble before the White hand of Mordor!" He began sprinting at her with his blade held tightly in his hands. He jumped up to attack her just as he did back when she attacked his kingdom. But this time he disappeared and reappeared behind her as he slammed his hand into her back and forced his power through her body stunning her and making her fly over the edge as her mace fell from her hand. Jaune quickly placing his blade on his back as he ran and jumped after her as she fell through the air. He caught her making each other spin before he pulled out his silver hammer and stabbed the sharp edge into her neck and facing her towards him as they fell.

Once she faced him he began slamming the hammer down on her helmet making his power glow with each strike as he dents the dark metal and making her try to stop him before he just slammed her hand stabbing it with the sharp end making it bleed. He just kept swinging as they fell through the air quickly reaching the ground before he stood up and kicked her down hard and pulled back his arm making the blue flames of his power wash over the silver hammer.

He then tossed it down watching as it spins through the air before slamming into her chest creating a large explosion of blue flames and smoke and launching her down into the ground slamming hard. As she laid there Jaune landed down on the ground as his eyes glowed with anger and rage before drawing his blade making the marking glow from blue to orange flames. She had begun crawling away looking pathetic as she coughed up black blood through the broken helmet. He walked and stood over her as he looked at the evil before him broken and defeated.

"You will die!" He yelled as he raised his blade to finish her, but then she turned around and held up her hand. The ring flew from Jaune's finger and onto her's as the blue light was gone replaced by her orange flames.

Jaune fell to his knees as his body was weak from exhaustion without the ring.

"Oh no," Ruby said with fear of what will happen to Jaune.

"Jaune don't give up!" Nora shouted.

"It is too late for him," oobleck said as he looked away from the screen.

Jaune looked up at Salem as the grip on his blade was weak and it fell to the ground no longer burning with the flames or glowing. She stood up with her mace as the flamed created another one that she quickly smashing against him and knocking him out.

"It isn't over," Ozpin said as he placed his mug down not drinking from what they were about to see.

"W-wait you don't mean…"

"Yes Miss Schnee she is going to kill him, and not quickly," Goodwitch explained as Roman pitched in.

"She is going to make his heath slow and painful," he said smoking his cigar as he put his hands up seeing the glares as he didn't care.

The scene faded once more to the sounds of chains as Juane was chained to a wall struggling hard as he looked ahead to see his wife dead at Salem's feet while her blood dripped off the mace. He kept struggling against the chains as Salem began slowly walking towards his daughter who was scared of each step the woman took towards her.

"Oh Gods," Emerald said holding their hand over her mouth shocked at what she was witnessing. Even the students were shocked as the teachers looked away in disgust from what was on screen.

"No this can't be happening…" Ruby said from under her own hood wishing she could hear the little girls whimpers.

Salem raised her mace up over her shoulder and swung down against the girl as she screamed out in fear.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!" Jaune yelled in a pain as he had been completely broken having no reason to live anymore. He hung his head as he stayed looking at the ground waiting now as Salem walked away from the dead girl and towards him as her armor faded away and she wore the white robes and held the silver hammer that he had used.

He looked into her eyes broken and defeated as she lifted the hammer and smashed it down against his skull cracking the bone knocking his head back down. She did not stop as she began to repeatedly smash the silver hammer against his skull splattering his blood all over the ground as he twitched until she stopped and his head hung bleeding and broken.

Nora and Ruby held their hands over their mouths as they felt sick from what they were watching as their friend was beaten to death right before their eyes.

"Sick," Goodwitch said a she looked away gripping her skirt in anger.

Jaune slowly turned his head to look at his dead wife and child as the hammer was turned around to the sharp end. He watched as Sauron raised it above her head and stuck him one last time taking his life.

As the screen was made black a bright light shined as a voice could be heard speaking to Celebrimbore.

"Your soul has been cursed, until the One Ring is unmade you will be forever trapped within Mordor," The voice said as it changed hundreds of years later as they witnessed a sacrifice of a family. As the man was having his throat slit and choked on his own blood a light appeared as Jaune was kneeled before him looking at his face unable to be seen.

"Finally, all will fear me and rejoice. For the Bright Lord has returned." He said as a wraith still wearing the armor that he wore in the battle against Salem. His soul having wandered the lands trapped for hundreds of years. The screen finally stopped shutting off as the lights came back on.

"What happened to Jaune?" Pyrrha asked as Oobleck coughed getting their attention.

"He has become a Wraith which is a ghost or ghostlike image of someone, especially one seen shortly before or after their death. He is trapped to wander around just like the woman had said," He informed them remembering them from old stories he found when looking for artifacts.

"So he is a ghost who can't move on till he destroys the ring?" Ruby asked as she tried forgetting what she saw.

"Yes, but he had become corrupted from the ring," Ozpin said continuing.

"He wants to rule the people just like that woman did due to the ring corrupting him from the years that he used it. We could even see it during the battle when his rage was consuming him." He finished as they all sat there letting it process.

As they were Cinder was processing what she had seen that version of Salem do. It was close to what she had done to the man but the body was then fed to the Grimm. It made her never question her word for any reason.

As they all sat there the dice were set on a table ready to be tossed fro the next throw.
