Omake
Making a shed seemed like cake for someone like the Rusted Knight. Ruby just saw him cut planks of wood with relative ease then arranged them before carrying some of them towards her destroyed shed. Though now thanks to him, it was newly constructed and even larger than before.
Ruby just stared at him while he worked.
"Hey, uhh….ummm Sorry Mr. Rusted Knight, I uhh What do I call you ?"
He chuckled.
"Just call me Knight. Rider if absolutely necessary. But it would be better if you could call me Felipe."
"Fel-ipe ?"
"Yeah. It's better that way. You know the True Name of Servants are both a blessing and a curse. Besides my rusted armour which is a dead giveway, the classes of servants are not to be known by enemy masters. This grail war is a fight to the death. In which either the master or servants die. Civilians especially those who incidentally find their way are dealt in one of two ways. I know that you know what it means."
Ruby just huffed.
"It's stupid though. Calling dead heroes just to fight them to the death. All for just a stupid wish, I mean."
Ruby just sighed.
'I don't know what to do.' She thought.
Meanwhile The Rusted Knight had finished the shed and it looked good as new.
As he wiped the non-existent sweat from his eyebrow he turned and looked at his shadow.
He then began stretching his fingers as he curiously watched them. Feeling the sensation of his rather young limbs and the fact that his joints were more younger than usual.
"Hey. Umm Felipe."
"Yes, Ruby ?"
"How old are you exactly ?"
"I'm currently brought at the same age I fell in. So I'm 19."
"Oh."
…..
Jaune found himself wandering around the forest as he tried to get a good read of where he was.
Luckily it was still daytime and he wasn't lost yet. At least that's what he hoped.
As he roamed around with a slight bit of doubt, he found the bushes behind him shaking as noise began to grow from it.
Jaune took a step back as he looked around for anything that he could use as a weapon.
As the noise grew louder, he instinctively took a stance that he remembered from self defense class.
At that moment, a redheaded girl in Amazonian attire came towards him holding a shield and mecha-shift spear.
"Jaune !" she called out.
"Who ?" he asked.
"Oh, it's me. Pyrrha Nikos, your partner." She just smiled awkwardly before shifting her weapons to the sides as she began covering.
"Ok."
Jaune just processed this information as soon as he heard the word 'partner'.
'Partner for what though ?'
"Ummm. Pyrrha, do you know where we have to go to get out of here ?"
She turned around to look at him before glancing to the sides.
"I'm sorry, Jaune. I was following you. Do you want me to lead ?" she asked quietly.
'I have no idea what is going on right here. Is she one of the kidnappers or is she a victim like me ?' Jaune thought to himself.
"By the way, Jaune what happened to your sword and shield. Oh no, did you lose them ?" she asked, slightly worried.
'How does she know about Crocea Mors ?' Jaune quickly turned around before he began to answer.
Right at that moment, shouts and screams of people came from the bushes ahead of them.
Without warning, Jaune ran towards them followed by Pyrrha.
They found a bunch of people fighting animals covered in black fur and wearing weird white masks.
As Pyrrha ran off to fight the closest one to them, Jaune was left wondering what was happening and why these people were abusing animals. Wasn't it similar to racism against Faunus. And he just saw a couple of Faunus attacking animals too which ended turning into black smoke.
Wait a minute, didn't that sound like Grimm ?
Didn't the blonde bombshell say there was no Grimm ?
Was some idiot manufacturing Grimm like a mad scientist ?
Were they on an island ?
Wondering what to do next, he found a sword nearby, likely thrown off by some Grimm-like animals while attacking some guy.
Well at least he had a weapon now.
All he needed to do was try to survive.
" And Team JNPR lead by Jaune Arc, Congratulations young man." Professor Ozpin, the hero who died by trying to stop the fire that caused the Collapse of New Vale, was right there in front of him, alive.
Too gobsmacked, he didn't even notice the playful punch by his partner, Pyrra Nikes or something.
It hurt a lot, but he couldn't believe anything really.
What weird reality was he in that he was now in a team of huntsmen fighting against the so called and very much non-extinct Grimm.
Oh and turns out his best friend Ruby Rose was there too, except younger and her sister happened to be the same one that threw him onto the forest.
He needed to sleep.
He just hoped Beacon Academy wouldn't fall after a semester.
