There was a choir at the entrance to the arena and a man and woman walked out. The man was in a white bodysuit and black armor, complete with a laurel crown. (Think Fate series Arthur Pendragon but in Avenger armor) The woman was dressed in a black gown and white armor (think Saber in her black gown but in Lily's armor). Both had headsets on and they looked at each other, lovingly. They were about 10 feet away from each other. Just then, the choir started to sing, their voices were beautiful. The voices echoed through the arena.
Man: You are beautiful on the inside. You are innocence personified. And I will drag you down and sell you out. Run away.
He sang that to her with a pained look in his eyes because he knows that he would. The woman looked at him with tears in her eyes.
Woman: I am cold like December snow. I have carved out this soul made of stone. And I will drag you down and sell you out.
Then they started to sing together.
Both: Embraced by the darkness, I'm losing the light. Encircled by demons, I fight.
Just then there was a guitar slide and then a metal band started to play.
(Judas by Fozzy if you hadn't figured it out by now)
What have I become, now that I've betrayed
Everyone I've ever loved, I pushed them all away
And I have been a slave to the Judas in my mind
Is there something left for me to save
In the wreckage of my life, my life
I'm becom-, I'm becom-, I'm becoming
I'm becom-, I'm becom-, I'm becoming
Judas in, Judas in my mind
I'm becom-, I'm becom-, I'm becoming
I'm becom-, I'm becom-, I'm becoming
Judas in, Judas in my mind
Judas in my mind
They were really enjoying themselves, the crowd behind them was dancing. Just then someone started to come out and they started to cheer. The first one was a white fox Faunus, she was dressed in a white battle dress, sandal boots and had nine tails coming from the base of her spine. She had blue eyes and was very beautiful. (Think K/DA Ahri)
Next came, a young woman, in black armor over a white dress. She was holding a sheathed sword and a dagger on the small of her back. (Fiora dressed like Alter Saber in white armor)
Then came a young woman with blonde hair wrapped in a bun on the back of her head, dressed in armor over a white and blue bodysuit, a tiara and cape with her royal seal on it. She was also carrying a broad sword.
Lastly was their leader, he had short blonde hair, dressed as the male singer, but his armor was white with gold trim, he was also in a black bodysuit. He also had on a gold and platinum cornet instead of a laurel crown. He was carrying his sword on his hip and the banner of his family in his hands. That was when the crowd got louder with their cheers, because the heir and duke had arrived.
"Their opponents; from la cité impériale d'arcadie. Ahri Foxfire, Fiora d'Angelique, Noir Arc, and the 'Duke of Orleans' Jaune Arc: 'le Cercle Intérieur'." Said the announcer. They walked on to the battlefield and got ready to fight.
Meanwhile, team RWBY had heard just whom Jaune was and was in shock. There was only one person with that title; the 'Prince of Arcadia' and with Jaune's new looks. He might be the Prince of Arcadia. The other teams were Jaune's former teammates; PNR, and Cardin's team CRDL. All 11 hunters and huntresses were in shock at Jaune's look.
The fight had started and they were really going at it. Everyone was all over the place, the hunters couldn't keep tabs on the Royal Cajuns. Then Jaune had met up with the liar, Cardin Winchester. He smirked at Jaune, "no matter what you look like or what you call yourself. You will always be trash!" He said and gave off loud, mocking laughter.
Jaune's eyebrow twitched, then he took his banner and swung it right at Cardin's face. Breaking his jaw. Then he used it against Cardin's mace disarming him. Jaune then started to beat him with the banner and, stomping and kicking the mace user, breaking ribs and cracking his skull. "VIVE LA ARCADIA!" Jaune said as he planted his banner right between Cardin's eyes knocking him out and realizing that they won.
"Winners; 'le Cercle Intérieur'!" Said the announcer, the Cajun Collation started to cheer. The other members hugged their prince and he was given a microphone to send out a message and give a speech to the crowd.
"Merci mes amis et mes proches. Je suis fier de m'appeler votre prince des Cajuns et héritier d'Arcadie. Vous me rendez fier d'être votre prince et plein d'espoir pour l'avenir. Cette victoire est pour vous, LONG LIVE ARCADIA!" Just then the Arcadians started to sing.
"Que suis-je devenu, maintenant que j'ai trahi
Tout le monde que j'ai jamais aimé, je les ai tous repoussés
Et j'ai été l'esclave des Judas dans mon esprit
Est-ce qu'il me reste quelque chose à sauver
Dans les décombres de ma vie, ma vie!" The team was singing with them, "JUDAS DANS MON ESPRIT!" The other teams looked on, in shock. Then Jaune started to address everyone and it was translated for the Cajuns.
"My fellow hunters and huntress, as you can see I am the Prince of Arcadia and it does exist! In case you don't know my name, it's Jaune Etienne Arc. Now, if you were to look up; 'Prince of Arcadia' you should see my smiling face." He said and they did. There were gasps everywhere.
"Looks like some people are about to start eating crow." Said Ahri, the rest of the team started to nod. Then they started to leave the arena.
Once they left the arena teams RWBY and NPR started to chase after them. "Jaune, Wait!" Said Ruby, Jaune's team stopped. "We're sorry, we're so so sorry."
"I'll accept your apology Ruby but what about the rest of you?" Said Jaune, "Ren you and Nora washed your hands of me remember? Isn't that what you said?" He glared at Nora who backed up with tears in her eyes, "I don't see you as my team leader, I couldn't have a weakling as a team leader." Then he turned to Ren, "and you'd just follow her lead huh Ren?" Ren lowered his head, Pyrrha gulped and quaked. "I'll accept Pyrrha's apology because you didn't do anything to hurt me. You helped me." She hugged him tightly.
"Hey what about the rest of us?" Said Yang.
"You were the stupid ones that believed the lie! Hell, anyone knows a Williow Schnee?" Wiess gasped, "I take it you do Wiess?"
"That is my mother," she said.
"Oh, your mother? Did you know your mother is my godmother?" Everyone gasped.
"It still does not matter!" She said, "you are still nothing!" Jaune got heated.
"To paraphrase one of my favorite lines; JE SUIS LE DUC D'ORLÉANS VOUS ÊTES LES PERLES DE MARDI GRAS, MIEL!" His team just gasped and covered their mouths. "Come on guys, I'm starved." They left the rest of teams RWBY and PNR by themselves.
End for now
Note: This came up from reading a story called 'RULER' by Reaction Writer.
JE SUIS LE DUC D'ORLÉANS VOUS ÊTES LES PERLES DE MARDI GRAS, MIEL = I AM THE DUKE OF ORLEANS YOU ARE THE PEARLS OF MARDI GRAS, HONEY it's an insult in Arcadia. Meaning you'll never amount to anything.
