Gamerlover41592: Thanks.
Greeer123: The horror indeed.
Tonytaker: Thanks.
AnimeWatcher1014: Could do.

The Crowend Reaper: That he is, that he is.
Duskrider: CreepyPasta has nothing compared to that.
Kaio SSGSSWHITE: When I get the game, yes.

SGArkosfan. I really did. Can't wait for the end of your Dark Knight story and the beginning of you Guardians of the Galaxy.
BlueJack22: As long as that..."thing" is there, I won't show it.
Shadow-Proclamation8: That is a great idea.
Obsidian Nova Arc: I doubt it ever does.
"Man, that guy was fast." Nora commented, referring to the viewing from before that showed Sonic.
"I wish there was a chance I could meet him so we could compare speeds" Ruby said.
"I wonder if there are more creatures like him." Blake asked with interest.
"Probably." Yang said. "View did say that he did have friends in other universes"
"I'm curious to see what they're like" Velvet said.
"That'll be for another time I'm afraid." View's voice spoke up from his spot from above as they looked up to see the spectre. "For now, we must continue." View said.
"Neat." Coco grinned. "Can't wait for what you got in store"
"Actually, I was hoping we would see the rest of another world we saw." Weiss spoke up as her friends watched in interest.
"Oh." View said. "Well, I guess I can do that." View said as he used telekinesis to bring a chest of orbs that he had intending to come back on. "Which world is it you would like to see?"
"I was rather hoping to see the rest of the world where Ar...Jaune was the king of Halloween." Weiss answered.
"King of what now?" Tai asked, confused by the title.
"I'll explain it to you in a bit." Qrow whispered.
"I guess I could do that." View shrugged as he went to the chest and try to find the world.
"So, why do you want to see the rest of that world again?" Yang asked.
"I just wanted to see what happens next considering it ended on a cliffhanger." Weiss said.
"Did you just wanna see Jaune do more singing?" Coco teasingly asked, causing Weiss to blush and Pyrrha, Velvet and Yang to slightly glare at her.
"P-please!" Weiss slightly scoffed. "I was interested in the story and the music, no matter who sings it."
"The music?" Ruby asked.
"Well I for one enjoy musicals" Weiss said.
"That's a given" Blake said dryly, causing Weiss to slightly glare at her.
"And I thought it'd be good to see more of it.
"I don't mind" Velvet said. She, like the other girls who has crushes on the blonde, wanted to hear his voice sing more.
"Nor do I" Pyrrha said in agreement.
"Yeah, me too I guess." Yang said.
"Found it!" View called out. "Now let's see the rest of this world" View said as he threw the orb into the screen and everyone paid attention to see what was going to happen next in this world.
The screen opened back up to where the last viewing ended, with Jaune entering the forest after singing about his woes. Penny was also there as she watched on in sympathy for the skeleton king.
Currently, Penny was back in Halloween Town and inside of the laboratory she resided in. She was placing a few items and herbs inside of a pot that read "Deadly Nightshade" on the front of it.
"Oh, so I am in this version of reality?" Penny asked with great interest.
"Yeah." Yang said. "You were there were Jaune sang a song about him being tired of being king of Halloween"
"Really?" Penny said and turned back to the screen. "I wonder how my counterpart would fair out."
She closed the lid and hid it away as the sound of a wheelchair was heard coming down the steps.
"Penny!" Merlots voice called out as he reached the ground floor while holding a lantern to see properly "You've come back."
Penny's eyes widen when she saw the mad doctor on screen. "He is my creator in this world?"
"Yes, Penny." Blake said. "He is."
"Well, that is very different." Penny commented.
"How so?" Ruby asked.
"Back in our world, I was created by my father: Dr. Pietro Polendina" Penny said with a proud smile.
"A good man." Ironwood said. "And a respected scientist."
"I had to." Penny said.
"For this?" Merlot asked as he held up her detached arm who waved at her.
"That's...a little creepy" Ruby said.
"Do not worry friend Ruby..." Penny said before she leaned in and whispered to her friend. "I cannot detached my limbs like that."
"...Thanks." Ruby said in a slightly uneasy tone.
"Yes." Penny answered.
"Shall we then?" Merlot asked. Penny then walked up the staircase, with Merlot following her.
Upstairs was where Merlots lab was located, filled with all sorts of experimentations in the place with vials, machinery and all sorts.
Currently, Merlot was reattaching Penny's arm back onto her. But she was strapped in place so she wouldn't escape. "That's twice this month you've slipped deadly nightshade into my tea and run off..." The mad doctor chastised.
"Three times!" Penny corrected with a hint of sass in her voice.
"Wow, I didn't think penny had the skill to sass like that" Yang smirked.
"It takes a great skill to master" Coco said as she relaxed herself.
"I hardly call it that." Glynda muttered, having at times being sassed by the girl only to reprimand her.
"You're mine you know!" Merlot snapped at the girl. "I made you with my own hands."
"You can make other creations." Penny pointed out. "I'm restless, I can't help it."
"It's a phase my dear, it'll pass." Merlot said in a softer voice as he threaded the needle and bit into it as well. "We need to be patient that's all."
"But, I don't want to be patient." Penny said sadly as Merlot continued working on her arm.
"Man...Poor Penny" Yang said with sympathy.
"It must not be easy having a father like that." Velvet said.
Winter and Weiss were both looking down, knowing how this Penny felt of having a cruel father.
Back within the dark forests where Jaune was currently having his walk alone, still feeling down about nothing ever changing. All the while Zwei was barking at his master.
"Bark! Bark!" Zwei chipped away.
"No Zwei, not now." Jaune said in a dejected tone. "I'm not in the mood."
"Aw Jaune, let Zwei help" Ruby said. "He always fixes things!" Ruby smiled.
"That he does." Weiss smiled in agreement.
"Is that what he did to my books? Fix them?" Blake said with a glare and an edge to her voice.
Zwei continued to bark, floating around the skeleton king and appeared in front of him.
"All right." Jaune sighed as he dug into his own body and pulled out one of his own ribs. "Here ya go boy." Jaune said as he threw the bone behind him and Zwei went after it.
"That's...one way to play with a dog." Ozpin said.
"That is very unsanitary" Glynda slightly gagged.
He looked around and managed to find the bone inside of a hollow tree, using his bright, red nose to find it. He bit down onto it and continued to follow after Jaune who continued his walk.
Back in Halloween town, morning was beginning to break as the band players that talked with Jaune before were currently sleeping right where he lived.
"So that where Jaune lives." Pyrrha asked.
"It looks like it" Terra commented.
"Doesn't look like a pleasant place to live in." Kali said.
"I think the saying goes through the whole place." Ilia said.
They were soon woken up by the sounds of a loud car that was being driven by Mayor Leonardo Lionheart, who had a big, smiley face on.
"Man, that face is really creepy." Sun said.
"Isn't he your headmaster" Blake asked.
"Sure is. Nice guy. Though he is a little nervous from time to time." Sun said.
The mayor got out of his car. "Morning gents" Leo greeted the band players, tipping his hat to them as he turned towards the gates to Jaune's house and walked past them and moved up the steps while humming a little tune.
Mayor Leonardo walked all the way up the steps while the band players watched. He rang the doorbell by pulling on the spider attached to the door, causing a screech to be heard as a doorbell.
"He must not know that Jaune left the town." Ghira said.
"He did sneak away during the commotion" Winter said.
The Mayor waited patiently while his humming grew a bit louder and gave a brief wave to the ghouls behind him. He kept waiting but rang the doorbell again for a response from the skeleton. "Jaune, you home?" Leo asked in a jovial tone.
Suddenly, his fast turned around into an expression of worry. He knocked on the door a few times and then switched back to happy face.
"Jaune? I've got the plans for next Halloween." Leo said as he held out a scroll that had pictures of scary things on it. "I need to go over them with you so we can get started." Leo said and accidently dropped some plans on the ground.
He switched back to his worried face. "Jaune, please, I'm only an elected an official here, I can't make decisions by myself." Leonardo pleaded but no answer was heard.
"HA!" Qrow laughed.
"What's so funny, Uncle Qrow?" Ruby asked.
"Oh, just the only honest thing I'll ever hear from a politician" Qrow chuckled.
He then pulled out a megaphone and aimed it at the very top of the house. "Jaune! Answer me!" Leonardo shouted until he started to lose his footing and proceeded to fall down the steps and roll his way down to the gates.
The band players moved up towards the mayor. "He's not home." The accordion player said to the mayor.
"Where is he?" Leo asked in pain as he looked up back at the house.
"He hasn't been home all night." The sax player said.
Mayor Leo groaned in response at this, both at Jaune not at home and at his own pain.
"Man, Leo is still as panicky as ever." Qrow committed.
"That he is." Ironwood said in agreement.
Back to forests, the sun had fully risen up. It also had a shape of a smiling jack 'o lantern on it. Jaune was continuing his walk through the forest, grasping his head in thought but was also tired.
"Where are we?" Jaune asked while also yawning. He continued on, shielding his eyes from the sun as he went towards a strange group of trees in front of him.
"Wait, are those...?" Ruby was about to ask.
"They look like the trees we saw from the beginning." Pyrrha said.
"Jaune must've found his way down there" Ren said.
"Ooh! I can't wait to see what they're like!" Nora said with excitement in her voice.
Jaune looked around and saw that he was at a place he had never been before. "It's someplace new." Jaune said in an amazed tone.
Zwei however had a look of worry on his face as he hovered near his master, barking at him.
Jaune continued to see what these trees were by walking right in the middle of them and was shocked to see what they were. "What is this?" Jaune asked as he looked at each tree, each one baring an individual thing that made it unique.
One door had an image of a heart on it along with some bright, pink boxes laying in front of it, another was a four leaf clover on the door with mushrooms growing from the bottom.
Jaune continued to look to see another tree with an egg on it that had different designs on it as well as eggs laying at the foot of it. Another treat had an image of a turkey on it and a hat with a buckle was laying by the foot of it.
"Man, I don't know what some of these doors even mean." Ruby said.
"Me too" Yang said in agreement.
"I guess they're like Holidays represented in each door" Tai suggested.
"Who would celebrate a holiday with a turkey?" Ilia scoffed.
"I'm just more confused about the one with the clover" Coco said.
Jaune looked around in interest in these strange trees but the one door that caught Jaune Skellingtons eye, the one he was most entranced by was the door with a decorative tree on it, along with a few boxes under it.
"Well I know that one" Ruby said. "It's Christmas."
"Yes. But why, out of all of those doors, would Jaune be interested in that one" Weiss asked.
"Maybe because out of all of them, that one is the more visual appealing" Velvet suggested.
"Not a bad idea, Vel" Coco complimented.
Jaune was entranced by this tree as he walked closer to it, wanting to know more about it. He looked down at the doorknob and placed his boney hand on the handle and carefully turned the knob.
Jaune opened the door to see nothing but blackness from the other side. He took a closer look around in the door, looking down as if there were an endless pit.
"Man, I would not want to fall down there." Yang said.
Jaune moved away from the door and turned to Zwei. He shrugged to his pet as a gust of wind suddenly blowed past the skeleton king and pulled Jaune in with an immense force as he was forced into the other side of the door, closing itself on entry.
"Jaune!" Saphron called out.
"What happened!?" Ruby asked in a worry toned.
"Just wait and see." View said.
"Woof!" Zwei barked in response at this strange occurred as he wondered where his master went.
Somehow, Jaune was currently stuck in a swirling vortex of flurry snow as he fell down the hole.
"Woah, that is trippy!" Yang said while also worrying for Jaune's safety.
"I just hope Jaune will be okay." Pyrrha said. "Who knows where he'll end up."
"I wouldn't worry about it" View said.
"Why's that?" Winter asked.
"You'll see." View said.
"You gotta be so cryptic" Qrow groaned.
"Whoooa!" Jaune cried out as he continued to fall around the mysterious portal and soon a bright light enveloped around Jaune as he suddenly found himself spinning on top of a snowy cliff.
He was in a daze after that fall and slowly opens his eyes but they quickly widen and his mouth was agape once he saw the wondrous sight before him. A bright and colourful snowy town that was very different from his own.
"Woah!" Most of the students said while the adults were in slight awe of the town itself.
"It's so bright!" Ruby said.
"It is" Blake said in agreement.
Adrian giggled at the sight of colourful town while his mother's smiled in response at their son while also be in awe of this town before them.
Jaune kept looking until his hand was pushed down onto the snow, something that Jaune hadn't even seen before. He took a handful and took a bite out of it out of curiosity.
"It's a good thing it wasn't yellow" Nora committed, making her friends cringe in response.
"Nora, please don't put that thought in our heads" Ren said.
"What?" Nora said, throwing her hands up. "I'm not saying do it."
He stopped eating and saw a train passing by, carrying a strange amount of unknown items. Jaune looked around and saw a massive tree being planted on a patch of ice where a couple of unknown people were skating on it.
"It is a very beautiful place." Winter said as she was very impressed by it.
"Indeed it is." Ironwood said in agreement.
"A whole town, or world, centred on a single holiday" Ozpin said. "How interesting"
"That's one word for it." Qrow remarked.
Jaune was too enticed by the sights that he leaned forward a bit too much and fell down the snowy cliff, making his way into the town as he landed inside a large amount of snow.
"At least its snow" Saphron said. "And not something too hard."
Jaune's head suddenly popped up from the snow and began to sing "What's this? What's this? There's colour everywhere!" Jaune sang as he stood up and grabbed a snowflake in the air.
"Really? Another song?" Qrow remarked.
"Silence, drunk!" Winter reprimanded, causing the reaper to shrug and just listen.
"What's this? There's white things in the air" Jaune examined the flake until it was shattered by the carrot nose of a snowman and was immediately amazed by it.
"What's this? I can't believe my eyes I must be dreaming Wake up, Jaune, this isn't fair!" Jaune sang until he noticed someone coming "What's this?" Jaune sang as he hid behind the snowman and grabbed its hat and carrot.
"Man, he is just so amazed by this world" Coco said.
"Well he has been the king of his own holiday for so long, seeing something completely different must've excited him" Blake said.
A trio of elves were singing a carol as Jaune watched while disguised as a snowman. "What's this? What's this? There's something very wrong what's this? There's people singing songs"
"How could they not see the tall skeleton?" Weiss asked incredulously.
"Maybe they were too busy with their carol" Ruby suggested.
"That doesn't make sense." Weiss said.
"What's this?" Jaune sang as a mechanical snow bear while being ridden by elf's passed him by and began to follow them. "The streets are lined with little creatures laughing, everybody seems so happy have I possibly gone daffy? What is this?"
"What's this?" Jaune asked as he leapt out of the snowman and into the air as the elf's turned to see the remains of the snowman, none the wiser about Jaune.
"Very impressive leap." Ozpin complimented.
Jaune was currently crouching on a lamppost as he watched a bunch of elf's around a snow fort throwing snowballs. "There's children throwing snowballs Instead of throwing heads they're busy building toys and absolutely no one's dead" Jaune sang as he got off the lamppost.
"There's frost on every window oh, I can't believe my eyes" Jaune said as he pulled down a wire that held Christmas lights on it.
"And in my bones I feel the warmth that's coming from inside" The skeleton king sang softly as he leaned against a small house.
"He seems so...happy to be here." Ruby said as she had a small smile.
"Was he not before?" Penny asked.
"He was a bit tired of doing the same thing over and over in his holiday" Pyrrha answered.
He then perked up and looked inside the house. Oh, look what's this? They're hanging mistletoe," Jaune sang as he saw a couple kissing under it. "They kiss? Why that looks so unique, inspired!" Jaune sang dramatically as he moved around the house.
"Ah, a lovely tradition" Glynda said.
"It is." Pyrrha said in agreement, never had it done before though, but if she had the chance, she would spend it with her leader, though so did Velvet and now Yang.
"I usually get a lot of takers under that" Qrow grinned.
"Really?" Yang said with a raised brow.
"You just don't wanna know where he put it" Tai shivered over the time he remembered where Qrow got too drunk.
"What was...?" Ruby was about to ask until Yang stopped her.
"Trust me, Rubes. You don't want to know." Yang said as she inwardly was screaming over the implication.
"They're gathering around to hear a story, Roasting chestnuts on a fire what's this?" Jaune sang as he saw an elder elf reading to the young elves.
Jaune then looked at another amazing sight as elves were currently decorating a tree. "What's this? In here they've got a little tree, how queer and who would ever think and why?" Jaune asked as the elf's plugged it in and the tree brightened up.
"I could do it in seconds" Ruby boasted.
"That is until dad stopped you and said that you would have to take your time" Yang reminded, causing Ruby to huff.
"It seems...nice." Weiss thought to herself sadly. Her father would never spend time with her, her brother proclaiming he was too mature for that and her mother would usually be off somewhere else. At least she had Winter and Klein for her.
"They're covering it with tiny little things, they've got electric lights on strings," Jaune sang as he climbed on top of the houses. "And there's a smile on everyone. So, now, correct me if I'm wrong,"
Jaune then slide down the next house. "This looks like fun, this looks like fun Oh, could it be I got my wish? What's this?" Jaune asked again as he looked below and it was a bedroom where elf's were currently sleeping.
"Man, this is just like when Jaune was a kid" Saphron smiled, remembering the time where she and Jaune where kids and they got excited, as did they're other sisters.
"Oh my, what now? The children are asleep." Jaune sang as he went inside the room and inspected what was under their bed. "But look, there's nothing underneath, no ghouls,"
Jaune then carefully went to another elf bed. "No witches here to scream and scare them Oh ensnare them, only little cozy things secure inside their dreamland...ah." Jaune sighed peacefully, as not to wake them.
"What's this?" Jaune suddenly shot up and left as the elf near him suddenly woke up in a confused panic.
"I don't blame him" Qrow said. "Was a little creepy there."
"At least he wasn't trying to scare them "Kali said.
"Still doesn't make it better" Qrow said.
Jaune was standing near windows where inside, elves were at work on something while Jaune was sneaking around so he wouldn't be seen.
"The monsters are all missing and the nightmares can't be found. And in their place there seems to be good feeling all around." Jaune sang as he moved past the windows and went to the edge of the building.
"He is very agile" Ilia said.
"Well, when you're boney like that, I guess you can move very skilfully" Blake said.
"It's still creepy" Weiss said." but I'm enjoying this song nonetheless"
"Me too" Velvet said in agreement.
"Instead of screams, I swear I can hear music in the air." Jaune sang as he used an umbrella to zip line his way down to a bakery. "The smell of cakes and pies are absolutely everywhere..." Jaune musically said as he dropped down.
"Mmm..." Ruby grumbled. She wanted to eat all of that, as did Nora. But they their respective partners wouldn't let them.
Jaune then jumped onto a carousel. "The sights, the sounds! They're everywhere and all around!" Jaune sang as he spun his body in motion of the carousel. "I've never felt so good before..." Jaune sang as he made a massive leap off the carousel and landed on top of a choo choo train.
"Man, Jauney is a very skilled jumper" Nora said.
"I wonder how he pulls it off." Ren asked.
"This empty place inside of me is filling up I simply cannot get enough! I want it, oh, I want it Oh, I want it for my own..." Jaune sang very quickly as he leaped off the train and onto a board.
"I've got to know, I've got to know what is this place that I have found." Jaune emotionally demanded as he got off the board.
"WHAT IS THIS!?" Jaune finished as he ran right into a pole face first and fell to the ground below, making a body shaped imprint in the snow.
"Ooh!" Saphron cringed at the sight of her brother face plating into a pole.
"Should really watch where he's going" Sun said.
"I think he was too entranced by the song he was singing" Ren said.
"I thought it was genuinely pleasant" Weiss complimented.
"As did I" Penny said with a smile.
Jaune leaned up to see the sign in front of him as his vision was clearing up. "Christmas town ... hmm" Jaune said to himself as he scratched his chin. He was already think of new thoughts.
A factory alarm blared, causing Jaune to turn to see where it came from. A factory as doors began to open and a silhouette of a large man was standing in the light.
"Wait...is that?" Blake asked as her eyes widen.
"No, it couldn't be." yang said as she was shocked by the shadow.
"Ho Ho Ho Ho ho ho ho ho!" A booming, boisterous voice boomed as Jaune watched on in great interest.
Everyone, but View, was in awe and shock at the sight of the icon before them.
"No way..." Sun said.
"I was right!" Ruby cheered. "Take that! Yang and Weiss!" Ruby pointed at her teammates.
"I knew it..." Nora whispered intensely.
"Nora?" Pyrrha asked.
"I freaking knew it..." Nora whispered. "Renny told me he wasn't real and that my traps were for nothing." Nora said as he grew a big grin. "But I was RIGHT ALL ALONG!" Nora cried out in triumph as Ren groaned.
"No way..." Qrow said.
"It is the theme the town is based around..." Taiyang said, equally shocked.
"I just thought it was just some themed town!" Qrow cried out.
"And the elf's?" Ironwood asked.
"Just some short guys with weird cloths and oddly shaped ears" Qrow said.
"Charming" Winter rolled her eyes.
"Hmm..." Jaune hummed, a new idea for want he wanted to do different entered his mind.
"I wonder what that look means" Glynda pondered.
"Nothing good." Saphron said, knowing her brother fully well.
The screen then cut to Halloween Town where the townspeople were discussing about Jaune and where he went off.
"This has never happened before." The Clown said.
"It's suspicious." Said a Witch
"It's peculiar." A second Witch added.
"It's scary." A group of vampires said while holding umbrellas.
"Man, has Jaune never took a vacation before in this world" Yang asked.
"It looks like he doesn't." Blake said.
"Most people of his stature rarely do" Ghira said.
Leo then moved past two monsters with his panicked face. "Stand aside. Coming through." Leo said as a werewolf growled at him.
Mayor Leonardo climbed the ladder of his car but tripped once he got on top of it. He got back up and used the megaphone feature on his car. "We've got find Jaune!" Leo said in a panic filled tone. "There's only 365 days left till next Halloween."
"Surely they've got a lot of time on their hands" Weiss said.
"364!" The werewolf corrected.
"Is there anywhere we've forgotten to check?" Leo asked.
"I looked in every mausoleum." The Clown said.
"We opened the sarcophagi." The two witches said at the same time.
"I tromped through the pumpkin patch." The Hyde monster said as he walked into the group with a pumpkin stuck on his foot.
"I peeked behind the Cyclops's eye." One of the vampires said while pulling out his own eye, which was quickly stopped when the witch slapped him.
"EW!" Ruby cringed.
"Disgusting" Winter nearly gagged.
"Why did he do that?" Terra asked as she only just shielded her son's eyes.
"I did!" The vampire exclaimed "But he wasn't there."
"Just leave your eye back there, dude!" Yang said as she looked away.
"It's time to sound the alarms!" Leonardo yelled out as mummified boy started to turn around a lever which caused cat like siren to blare throughout the town.
"Man, that is a powerful screech" Sun said as he poked her ear.
"Well, that's certainly a cat ca-" Tai was about to pun until Glynda glared at him.
"We can barely handle your daughter's puns." Glynda said. "If you start, I swear, they'll be nothing left of you."
Tai then stopped to save his skins from the wrath of Goodwitch.
It was so loud that it could be heard over at Dr Merlots tower, were Penny was currently watching over her window.
She turned away from the window and carefully sneaked by the cabinet where she kept the nightshade and took it out.
Penny then walked over to her boiling cauldron and poured in the nightshade into it, causing smoke in the shape of a skull to form out of it as Penny pinched her nose.
"Am I about to poison Dr Merlot?" Penny asked with worry in her voice.
"I don't think so." Weiss said. "If you did, I imagine you would have done it a while ago."
"Best guess, it's probably something to knock him out" Coco said.
Once the smoke cleared, she then grabbed one of the items by the rack near the cauldron and examined it.
"Frog's breath will overpower any odour." Penny said as she took off the lid and an actual frog was in the tin.
"Ew!" Weiss remarked.
"I think that's way too literal" Ren commented.
She pinched her nose and positioned the frog by the cauldron as it burped into the cauldron.
"Ha, gross" Nora said.
"That it is" Pyrrha said in agreement.
Penny stopped pinching her nose but that was a mistake as she started to cough by the sheer smell of it. "Bitter!" Penny exclaimed as she nearly fell and grabbed onto the nearest table.
"Worm's wart. Where's that worm's wart?" Penny asked as she searched through the cabinet for the specific item. She managed to find the item in the end, and just in time.
"Penny! That soup ready yet?" Merlots voice called from the upper level of the tower.
"Oh no" Ruby said with worry that her friend might get caught by the mad doctor.
"She'll be fine Rubes" Yang assured.
Penny then poured the last ingredient into the cauldron. She smiled once she saw the results. "Coming!" Penny cried out.
Merlot was currently dealing with one of his many experiments while he waited for Penny. His head case suddenly popped open as Merlot picked at his brain.
"Oh my!" Glynda gasped.
"Oh man!" Sun shouted as he tore his eye away from the sight. "That is not something I ever want to see!"
"Lunch!" Penny called out as she walked up the stairs.
"I just lost mine." Yang groaned, still cringing at the sight of the exposed brain, as did the others.
"Same here." Coco said in agreement.
She then placed the soup bowl on the table as Merlot put his case back on. "Ah, what's that?" Merlot asked as he took a whiff of the soup. "Worm's wart, mmm," Merlot exclaimed as he took a spoon and was about to eat it until he took another whiff. "And...Frog's breath." The mad doctor said in a suspicious tone.
"What's wrong? I-I thought you liked frog's breath?" Penny asked, a little nervous that he was onto her.
"Nothing's more suspicious than frog's breath." Merlot snapped and passed the bowl over to her. "Until you taste it I won't swallow a spoonful." Merlot stated and held out a spoon for her.
"Well...that's not good" Yang commented.
"Now she's going to be outed" Pyrrha said with worry.
"I would not worry." Penny said.
"Why's that" Ruby asked.
"I'm not hungry." Penny said as she suddenly knocked the spoon away. "Oops!" Penny exclaimed.
"You want me to starve." Merlot said in an offended tone.
"I can't see why" Qrow said in a sarcastic tone.
Penny went to pick up the spoon, only to push it under the table while she got her own spoon she had hidden on her. "An old man like me who hardly has strength as it is. Me! To whom you owe your very life."
"Ah, smart" Ruby said.
"Indeed." Winter said in agreement with the red reaper.
"Oh don't be silly." Penny said as she picked up the bowl and used her spoon, but it had holes in it that caused the soup to pour back into the bowl, Merlot was none the wiser.
"Very clever" Ironwood complimented.
"Thank you General Ironwood, sir." Penny saluted with respect.
She then proceeds to pretend eating the soup, fooling Merlot. "Mmmm, see. Scrumptious." Penny said as she handed the bowl.
Merlot was convinced, at the moment, and then proceeded to guzzle down the soup in one go, much to Penny's delight.
"Ugh, such a savage" Winter committed.
"Maybe because he's not sound of mind" Blake said.
"Plus, he exposed his brain out and might not be as sharp as he thinks" Nora added.
Back in the town square, hours had passed as the Mayor was resting on top of his car, still waiting for Jaune to come back.
"Did anyone think to dredge the lake?" Leo groaned in despair.
"Ah, this morning!" A vampire yawned out his answer.
"I'm surprised the vampires are able to go outside." Weiss said.
"Yeah, shouldn't they burn up or something" Yang asked.
"I think they're protected by the umbrellas" Nora said.
"And that works?" Coco said.
"Apparently" Ren said.
Suddenly, the sound of a dogs barking could be heard in the distance, everyone hearing it.
"Hear that?" A witch asked.
"What?" The smaller witch asked.
"Shh!"" The other witch hushed as she used her hat as a listening tool.
The barking continued as Mayor Leo's face then suddenly switched to its happy face, knowing full well what that was.
"Zero!" One of the vampire claimed as they saw the ghost dog floating past the gate. And behind the ghost dog was Jaune driving a vehicle with cargo on the back, coming towards the town
"Where'd he get the car?" Yang asked.
"No idea." Qrow said.
"It looks like he's picked some stuff up on the way" Ilia said, commenting on the luggage on the car.
"He must have been inspired by Christmas town" Kali said.
"Jaune's back!" One of the kids exclaimed excitedly as he Jaune drove into town as all of the residents cheered for their king's return.
"Where have you been?" Leonardo asked as Jaune parked his car.
"Call a town meeting and I'll tell everyone all about it!" Jaune said in an excited tone.
"When?" Leo asked as his face shifted to one of worry.
"Immediately!" Jaune exclaimed.
"I guess he's going to share his findings with the rest of the town" Ozpin said as he sipped his mug.
"I wonder how they'll react." Glynda said.
Hours later, the bell was currently being rung, loud enough to reach the entire town. Leo was currently driving his van, giving out the message.
"Town meeting, town meeting, town meeting tonight, town meeting tonight!" The Mayors voice rung out as the screen panned to Merlots tower.
Inside, Penny was placing a blanket over the sleeping Merlot after he finished the soup. She gave him a little pat and began to leave to see what the meeting was about.
"At least she's kind enough to give him a blanket" Ruby said.
"Maybe too kind" Winter said as she was not fond of the mad doctor's treatment of Penny.
It was night time and every monster and ghoul was heading inside of where the meeting was being held. Inside of the building, it looked like every monster ghoul and all sort of creature was there to see what Jaune had in store for them.
Penny was walking by, trying to find a seat as the Clown suddenly sped past her to the front row.
"Watch it, chuckles" Nora said.
"Easy, pinky" Coco said.
"I just don't trust that clown!" Nora said.
As she found some place to sit, Jaune Skellington had entered the room and stood by the podium.
"Listen everyone!" Jaune called out, gaining all of his people's attention as they sat down and listened. "I want to tell you about..." Jaune was about to say as the lights dimmed down. "Christmas town."
Mayor Leo activated a light as the bats on it flew off of it.
Jaune began to speak about the town he visited. Or rather...sing it.
"Oh, god no..." Qrow groaned as he pinched his nose.
"Ah, get over it." Yang said. "I want to hear it."
"There are objects so peculiar they were not to be believed all around, things to tantalize my brain," Jaune sang as the town people were very interested in this tale. "It's a world unlike anything I've ever seen and as hard as I try I can't seem to describe like a most improbable dream"
Jaune then move away from the podium and to the curtains. "But you must believe when I tell you this It's as real as my skull and it does exist!" Jaune said as he was night next to a piece rope hanging up.
"Here, let me show you..." Jaune presented as he pulled down the rope and it opens the curtains, revealing a handmade Christmas tree, along with a few presents there.
"It's...a good attempt" Saphron said at the poorly made tree and decorations.
"The audience were amazed by this sight before them. Never had they seen something so bright and colourful in their lives.
"Ooh!" Penny said in awe.
"Man, they really are impressed by this" Coco said.
"Maybe because they haven't seen something like this in their lives before." Velvet said.
Jaune then picked up the present and presented (Ha!) to the audience. "This is a thing called a present the whole thing starts with a box..."
"A box?" A confused monster said.
"Is it steel?" A devil asked.
"Are there locks?" A werewolf asked.
"Is it filled with a pox?" A Harlequin like monster asked.
"A pox? How delightful, a pox" The Devil monster said with glee.
"They are really going for the whole creepy angle" Ruby said.
"They are monsters, Ruby" Blake said. "Naturally they would find ways to think of creepy ideas to go along with it"
"I guess your right" Ruby said.
"If you please," Jaune said at the sudden interruption and continued. "Just a box with bright-coloured paper and the whole thing's topped with a bow!"
"A bow?" The two Witches said as they sped by Jaune on their broomsticks. "But why? How ugly what's in it? What's in it?" The two witches said at the same time, circling around the skeleton.
"That's the point of the thing, not to know" Jaune sang as a mechanical hand grabbed the box off Jaune.
"And you have to wait for like forever!" Nora groaned as Ren rolled his eyes.
"It's a bat!" The Clown deduced.
"Will it bend?" The Creatures under the Stairs asked as he went for the box.
"It's a rat!" The Clown exclaimed, denying the box to his fellow monster.
"Will it break?" The Creature asked.
"Perhaps it's the head that I found in the lake" The undersea monster said as he popped out of nowhere as Jaune grabbed the present back.
"Wow, all of them are just so wrong" Qrow said.
"To be fair, they had never seen items like this before and are right to assume something" Ozpin said.
"Listen now, you don't understand that's not the point of Christmas land" Jaune said as he put the gift down and went to the next item. "Now, pay attention," Jaune advised as he grabbed a sock. "We pick up an oversized sock And hang it like this on the wall." Jaune presented.
"Oh, yes! Does it still have a foot?" The Mr Hyde monster asked.
"Let me see, let me look" Another Hyde monster demanded as he popped out of the larger Hyde's hat.
"Is it rotted and covered with gook?" A smaller Hyde monster asked as he came out of the other small Hyde's hat.
"Um, let me explain" Jaune chuckled a little. "There's no foot inside, but there's candy or sometimes it's filled with small toys" Jaune said as he grabbed said toys out of the sock.
"Small toys!?" Two monster kids exclaimed in surprise.
"Do they bite?" A winged demon kid asked.
"Do they snap?" The mummy kid said.
"Or explode in a sack?" the Winged kid added.
"Or perhaps they just spring out and scare girls and boys" The third kid suggested.
"Those kids are thinking of some very violent thoughts" Ghira said.
"I just assume most kids do" Qrow said.
"You think very little of them Qrow" Ozpin said.
"They're usually either little shits or something worse." Qrow remarked.
"What a splendid idea! This Christmas sounds fun!" Mayor Leo exclaimed up in the rafters. "I fully endorse it let's try it at once!" Leo said as he nearly fell to the ground, regaining his footing.
"Everyone, please now, not so fast! There's something here that you don't quite grasp" Jaune stated as everyone was whispering among themselves as what that could mean.
"Well, I may as well give them what they want" Jaune said to himself, ready to unveil the best part.
"Is he gonna get to the big guy?" Nora asked.
"It looks like it, Nora" Sun said.
"I wonder how Jaune will describe him." Velvet pondered.
"And the best, I must confess, I have saved for the last for the ruler of this Christmas land" Jaune sang as he moved away from the stage and got near the interested audience. "Is a fearsome king with a deep mighty voice Least that's what I've come to understand" Jaune said as he poked a gooey monster on the nose.
"That's...not how I remember him" Ruby said.
"And I've also heard it told that he's something to behold like a lobster, huge and rrrred!" Jaune exclaimed as he pulled out a monsters tongue of emphasis.
"When he sets out to slay with his rain gear on Carting bulging sacks with his big great arms!" Jaune exclaimed by standing up and throwing his arms up.
"That is, so I've heard it said" Jaune said as Penny watched on with a concerned look on her face as Jaune moved back to the stage.
"I don't think Jaune got the right impression of Santa" Pyrrha said.
"You're telling me" Coco said.
"He does sound a lot cooler" Nora said.
"And on a dark, cold night under full moonlight He flies into a fog like a vulture in the sky!" Jaune exclaimed as he leapt onto the stage as everyone was so amazed.
"And they call him...Sandy...Claws!" Jaune said as everything went dark with a red tinge and Jaune had a massive, menacing grin on his face as everyone applauded for his performance and explanation over this new holiday.
"Well, at least they're excited..." Jaune sang as the curtains closed behind him. "But they don't understand that special kind of feeling in Christmas land." Jaune sang as he grabbed a snow globe, shook it and placed it on the table as the snow bloomed inside it.
"Oh, well..." Jaune finished, still watching the very interesting globe and wanting to do more from this Christmas.
The screen turned off.
"Well...that was something" Yang said as she was a little creeped out by the face Jaune made by the end of the song.
"At least he still enjoys the feeling of the holiday, unlike the others" Pyrrha said.
"Indeed" Glynda said in agreement.
"Well, I enjoyed the songs that were in this" Weiss said.
"As did I" Velvet said in agreement.
"So, you all liked it then" View asked.
"For the most part." Qrow said.
"Well, that's good to hear. I'll get the next world started then." View said and left.
"I'm just wondering what's going happen next with Jaune-Jaune now that he's shown the town about Christmas." Nora pondered.
"I'm just hoping nothing too bad happens" Ren said.
"Knowing the way we do things and the way these worlds have been going out, it probably will" Yang said as the other nodded in agreement.
Thanks for reading this chapter of Worlds of Arc.
Throughout all of December, I will try to put it Christmas chapters and I will try very hard to get Nightmare before Christmas done before the end of the month. It may be a bit impossible for me, but I will try.
Next chapter won't be based around the next part. Instead, it'll be another DBZA chapter and beware...because Turles is coming to town. Thanks and see you around!
