Passing Through Initiation with a Smile
Jaune and Rushuna are seen sleeping under the sheet and cuddling their bodies together as they were having a peaceful sleep all night without any problems, well, besides some of the new students looking at them with either jealous or angry looks wishing they could do something like that when they found their love someday.
Rushuna is the first to wake up as she sees the blue sky through the windows and took out her scroll to check the time, it's early in the morning that would mean they have plenty of time to get themselves breakfast and grab their equipment before the time for the initiation is called out.
"Jaune, is time to get up." Rushuna said, shaking the sleeping Arc boy a bit.
"No, Pumpkin Pete, I don't want to eat more of your cereal. Is not very good for your health." Jaune groaned in his sleep, Rushuna chuckles.
"Come on, don't want to late for get in to Beacon." Rushuna said, now going for Plan B: tickling Jaune.
Jaune let out a loud laugh for a few seconds until his eyes shot open being fully awake.
"AHAHAHA! Ruhsuna, s-s-stop I'm up, I'm u-up!" Jaune laughed before Rushune stops and he pants.
"Good morning, my knight and shiny armor." Rushuna smiled, leaning closer and kissing him on the forehead.
"Hehe, morning to you too, Rushuna." Jaune greeted as he kisses her on the cheek.
"Are your mornings always like this?" Pyrrha asked, also waking up from her sleep.
"Sometimes, though I wake up her with just mentioning the word "hot-spring" and gets her up every time." Jaune answered, laughs a little.
"Hey, I can't help it if I like hot-springs; they're warm and makes all the tension in your body melt away while relaxing both your mind and body." Rushuna explained, recalling all the times she had bath in the hot-springs back in her old world and here on Remnant.
"Wow, you must really like to get clean, do you?"
"Well, it is just that you need to keep your clean and healthy but I for one just enjoy like you on a vacation." Rushuna excited.
"I don't think I've ever met anyone who loves hot-springs that much." Pyrrha whispered to Jaune's ear.
"You'll get use to it." Jaune said.
"By the way, who are you, I'm Rushuna Tendo." Rushuno introduced herself to the new girl that just appeared between her and Jaune who gasps of just realizing it.
She's a young woman with fair skin, short orange hair and turquoise eyes. Her clothing is a mix and match of some sort, with different colors and themes. She wears a collared black vest that ends at her waist. Her signature emblem, a hammer with a lightning bolt, can be found on the back. Under the vest are two layers of clothing, colored red and light-blue respectively. She also wears a white sleeveless top that forms a tiny heart shape cut out over her chest, with a white detached sleeve on each arm. She wears matching fingerless gloves on each hand. She sports a short pink skirt that starts at the waist and ends mid-thigh. Her shoes are a mix of pink and white with pink laces, displaying her emblem on their soles. She also wears armor that begins in the middle of the shoulder and neck and ends by the waist. Breasts sizes: E-cup.
"Hey there, I'm Nora Valkyrie and I'm going to the most awesome-fierce Huntress the world has ever seen!" Nora introduced herself striking a pose and the background turns to her emblem.
"Well, huh, nice to meet you. I'm Jaune Arc." Jaune greeted, thinking this girl is too excited.
"My name is Pyrrha Nikos, it's a pleasure to meet you." Pyrrha bowed a little at Nora.
"Nora, you're behaving yourself?" A boy asked walking to Nora and the trio.
The boy is a male teenager with long black hair tied into a ponytail that ends midway down his back. There is a magenta streak on the left side of his hair. His eyes match the streak in his hair. He wears a dark green, diagonally-buttoned, long-sleeved tailcoat that is red on the inside, with black and gold trimming and pink cuffs. The trimming goes down the right side of his torso and forms a black collar. This color scheme seems to be influenced to some degree by the lotus flower, which is his emblem. He wears a black, long-sleeved shirt beneath the suit and light-tan pants with black shoes.
"Hey, Ren! Guys, this is my best friend, Lie Ren though his name is backwards probably a family thing and we've been together since we were kids, but not like together-together. We have been though some tough times getting here, but it was all worth that we spend the whole night in Beacon!" Nora squealed in excitement.
"Hello." Ren simply greeted.
"So, I take it you two are ready for the Initiation?" Jaune asked, getting up.
"Well, duh, of course we are!" Nora answered.
(Breakfast)
"We've been training together since we were kids, it was hard at first, but we pulled through like unlocking our auras and discovering our semblances. It was a crazy Thursday for me." Nora said with a mouth full of pancake.
"Interesting." Rushuna said.
"Crazy Thursday?" Jaune confused.
"She got struck by lightning, didn't die." Ren explained, confusing Jaune more.
(Bathroom)
"I just hope we be on the same team." Nora hoped as she brushes her hair and the others brushing their teeth.
"That would be nice." Pyrrha commented.
"Oohhhh! We should come up with some sort of plan, to make sure we end up on the same team together! What if we bribe the headmaster?" Nora asked.
"I don't think that would work." Jaune pointed out that it's a bad idea.
"You're right, he has the school." Nora admitted.
(Locker Room)
"I know! We'll have some sort of signal! Like a distress signal! (gasps) A secret signal so we can find each other in the forest! Can you imitate a sloth?" Nora asked.
"Nora?" Ren replied.
"Yes, Ren?"
"I don't think sloths make a lot of noise." Ren said as he sheaths his weapons inside his sleeves. Nora took a moment to think about this.
"That's why it's perfect! No one will suspect we're working together!" Nora excited.
"I don't think really understands what he means." Jaune pointed out.
"Come on, Nora." Ren said, closing the locker and walks away.
"But not like, together-together, it was nice meeting you guys!" Nora said waving goodbye to the three.
"Goodbye, I hope we end up on the same team!" Rushuna called out.
"Well, those two sure were… something." Jaune said.
"I think it's wonderful, they showed to have quite the strong bond and teamwork." Pyrrha stated as she got her gear ready.
"Like me and Jaune!" Rushuna hugged his arm in hers and between her breasts which makes him blush.
"(Aw, they are a great couple together. I wish Jaune would be my boyfriend-wait, what?)" Pyrrha thought stopped herself at the last part, wondering why would she be thinking about that to a guy she just met yesterday.
"I wonder how the teams will be formed, hopefully I'll end up with either you two." Jaune said, not wanting to deal with people he doesn't know.
"We'll just to hope for the best and besides there's also Ruby, Yang, Blake, and Weiss." Rushuna listed.
"I'm… actually nervous about Weiss, especially with being a rich girl." Jaune said nervous.
"Did someone said my name?" Weiss asked walking to the group.
Weiss is a pale skinned young girl with pale blue eyes and long white hair pulled back into an off-center bun tail on the right side and pinned with an icicle-shaped tiara. A crooked scar runs vertically down her left eye and face. She wears a thigh-length strapless dress with a faint color gradation from white to pale blue at the hem. A small piece of black lace sits in the front of her neckline and the hem of the dress is scalloped and stitched to resemble snowflakes, with layers of white tulle under the skirt. Over this she wears a bell-sleeved bolero with the same color gradation as her dress from shoulder to wrist, lined in red and with a ruffled collar. On the back of the bolero is the Schnee Crest. She also wears a small apple pendant on a silver chain and thin, rectangular silver earrings. Her boots are white, wedged heeled and higher at the back than the front. They have a small silver decoration across the top of the foot and are lined in red. A thin white sash is tied around her waist with a pouch attached to the back. Breasts sizes: B-cup.
"Hello Weiss, we were just talking about being in a team with you." Rushuna greeted.
"Really, no offense but you two aren't exactly what I called, tastefully, you have flavors just not the one I like." Weiss stated.
"I don't see how food is team forming." Rushuna confused, being naïve.
"Look Weiss, I know we got off on the wrong foot last night." Jaune said, hoping to break the ice.
"You touched my chest, you perv!" Weiss angered backing away a foot.
"It was an accident, I just trying to stop you and Yang from yelling." Jaune defended.
"Well, you better this initiation will put you through Hell before passing otherwise I will." Weiss declared.
"I think Jaune will surprise you of how he handles himself." Pyrrha said.
"Yes, I trained with him and he's quite skilled and a tactic." Rushuna added.
"Aw, stop, you're embarrassing me." Jaune giggled as his cheeks blushes a bit.
"Hmm, I hope you don't get yourself into trouble." Weiss said.
"Don't worry, what's the worse that could happen?" Jaune asked, not knowing he jinxed himself.
(Later, Initiation)
"Ow, what happened?" Jaune asked groaning, slowly opening his eyes seeing the trees… upside-down?
He soon realizes that he is hanging upside-down on a branch and seem to be remembering something else before his crash to the tree. He starts to remember what happened before; he was launched into Emerald Forest as start of the initiation, met with Pyrrha making her his partner then Rushuna, they walk together to find the temple and found a cave, they went in found something glowing as Jaune thought it was the relic but it turns out to be a Deathstalker and got flung far away and crashed into the tree he's currently on. He saw Ruby on the tree too looking a little dizzy.
"Ruby, are you okay?" Jaune asked, getting down and checking on her.
"Huh, oh Jaune, yeah, I'm okay." Ruby answered.
"Come on, I'll help you down." Jaune offered, Ruby took his hand and yelp finding herself in Jaune's arms and he jumps off the branch.
Ruby mind started focusing only on Jaune as her cheeks became red and her heart skipping a beat or two.
"(Wow, he looks so cool!)" Ruby thought.
Jaune stab his sword to the tree to slow down their descant to the ground and made a safe landing.
"Hey there, Lover Boy, showing my sister a good time?" A familiar voice asked.
Jaune and Ruby look to see Yang and Blake both in their combat outfits seeing the two as Yang smirks, he and Ruby see what Yang is thinking and quickly separate as he down her down. Ren and Nora are here two next to the old stone structure, probably the temple.
"It's not like that, he was just helping me get down from the tree." Ruby explained.
"Hu-uh, sure I just thought you two were having a good time." Yang teased.
"Hey, I already have a girlfriend!" Jaune reminded.
"JAUNE?!"
Jaune turns around to the source of the screaming and see both Rushuna and Pyrrha running for their life from the Deathstalker behind them.
"Hey, look Ren, it's the two girls that we met along with Jaune." Nora pointed at them.
"Yes, and I see one girl hanging on a Nevermore." Ren said looking up seeing Weiss hanging on a Nevermore's talon.
"Ruby, did you really tried riding a Nevermore?" Jaune asked.
"It was a good idea at the time, beside I said jump." Ruby explained, starting to see it wasn't a good idea.
"She's falling." Ren said.
Weiss has begun fallen to the ground screaming a little, Rushuna saw this and quickly sprint ahead to the spot where Weiss would land and held out her arms and catches Weiss not letting her head the ground.
Weiss open her eyes to see being saved by Rushuna.
"Are you okay?" Rushuna asked with a smile.
"Y-yes, thank you." Weiss thanked, getting on her feet and brushing her skirt with her hands.
"Well, the gangs all here, now we can die together." Yang said sarcastically.
"Not if we take them out first, those Grimm have spotted us as their next meal and they won't let us go unless we deal with them now." Jaune pointed out.
"He's right, let's quickly grab the relics and work together to deal with them." Ruby concurred.
"Yeah, I'm down for some action!" Nora excited with her hammer.
(Music-Hohoemi no Senshi: Grenadier)
Everyone also agrees, Jaune and Ruby quickly grab their own relic and ran off with everyone luring the Grimm away. Rushuna stop for a moment seeing something shiny on the floor of the temple and quickly pick it up before catching up with the others.
Ruby, Weiss, Blake, and Yang will fight the Nevermore while Jaune, Rushuna, Pyrrha, Nora, and Ren will deal with the Deathstalker.
The three girls attack the scorpion Grimm with long rang while Jaune and Ren goes for close combat slashing it with their blades though nothing seem to be working. Nora tries firing missiles at the beast engulfing it in pink explosions, but that proves ineffective.
"Its armor is too strong." Ren pointed out the obvious.
"And its belly is too close to the ground to slide under, we need to break the armor hard then hit that spot harder." Jaune said.
"I think I have an idea." Rushuna pulled out a brass knuckle-like weapon with five bullets.
"Your Bullet Knuckles?" Jaune confused, then looks back at the Deathstalker, more specifically the stinger understand what Rushuna is planning.
"That's right Jaune, I think it's time we give that Grimm a taste of its own stinger." Rushuna planned.
"Alright, Pyrrha how sharp is the edge on your shield?" Jaune asked.
"Very sharp, on it!" Pyrrha understand the plan as well.
"Good. Nora, Ren, we'll keep it distracted." Jaune said, they nodded and run to the Deathstalker getting their attention only on them as Pyrrha reel back her shield and wait for the right moment.
Jaune and the two friends are holding it off though he fears that it may move around too much for Pyrrha, so he closes his eyes and his right arm with the sword begun glowing of white aura then shot his eyes open charging at the Deathstalker and slashes at the four legs on one side and the claw as it screeches in pain.
"Whoa! How'd you do that?" Nora asked.
"Semblance." Jaune said, exhausted from using his semblance.
Pyrrha smiles mentally thanking Jaune for that and threw her shield with all her might at the stinger cutting it off from the tail, that moment is when Rushuna jumps and runs on the tail to the top as she places the round bullet container to the end part.
"Zero Range Target Shot: Tornado Impact:" Rushuna punched the Bullet Knuckles at the container and forced the stinger to break through the armored scorpion impaling it.
(Music End)
"We. Are. Awesome!" Nora shouted in joy.
"That was truly a grand victory." Pyrrha complimented.
"Good job, everyone!" Rushuna cheered.
"That's great, but I'm still worried that you don't have a team or partner." Jaune reminded.
"Don't worry, Jaune, I have a feeling it'll work out." Rushuna winked, confusing Jaune and the others.
(Later)
Everyone made it back to the school and have been place in a team with team names like RWBY and JNPR, all that's left is Rushuna as she walks up the stage.
"Headmaster Ozpin, I believe I have found something that would let me stay here." Rushuna handed Ozpin a crimson queen chess piece she pulled from her breasts pocket.
"Indeed, you have, this is a special relic that has not been used in decades until last year and today." Ozpin explained. Rushuna was surprised that someone else found that relic last year.
"This relic means that you are allowed to go solo and may team up with other teams or become a permanent fifth member of a team. The student last year chose to be solo, so what will you choose Rushuna Tendo?" Ozpin asked.
"I choose to be with team JNPR!" Rushuna answered without hesitation.
Everyone cheered that everyone has been put together and that a team got themselves a fifth member which apparently hasn't been done in years until now as Rushuna runs to her new team. Jaune felt happy for Rushuna that she gets to stay and lifts her up spins around once and they shared a kiss for a moment causing the crowd to 'aw' for the couple and some of the girls blushed like Pyrrha and Ruby.
"This is going to be an interesting year." Ozpin smiled.
Jaune and Rushuna smiles at the crowd after they finished kissing.
KO a new chapter is done and hope you all enjoy it!
It was a tough battle Jaune, Rushuna, and everyone went through dealing with the two Grimm while trying to pass the initiation, but they made it through in the end with teamwork like the plan Rushuna thought of to finish the Deathstalker off that's different than in the anime. This is only the start for the blonde duo as they'll face the first school-year together with their new friends as some may fall for Jaune, like Pyrrha and Ruby.
Hope you like that Jaune used his semblance early than in the cannon, thanks to the training with Rushuna as you'll soon find out what Rushuna's semblance is.
