A/N:
Turbosa22c-Damn, when you put it like that I can see why Blake isn't well liked by Nishi. I mean she did technically abandon her home, her last name and went on to live on the main land.
Now I didn't know she hated Yang too, but I guess it makes sense. Though the question is why Yang didn't want Blake to come to Menagerie? Some other reason? Or her abandonment issues?
.
.
And saying that reminds me of why I don't like this version of Knightshade. Since Jaune is basically taking away Blake's wife like he did her mother.
Also to be fair, Jaune can be the MC and still have only one relationship, with only one kid.
Something tells me this didn't start off as a Harem story, but then you changed your mind half way through...Or it was always meant to be one and I'm just crazy.
You know, part of me would've hoped that instead of Blake it was Yang, this Arc was supposed to be about. Maybe it's because I'm a DragonSlayer fan (It's in my top three ships, behind Arkos and Lancaster). Also I can't help but feel a Dragonslayer kid would be way more powerful than Noire.
Weiss I can understand, but I do hope there is an Arc with just the too of them, no romance involved but as a way for them to work out their problems with each other.
Part of me feels that Jaune still kind of resents Weiss for how she treated him in Beacon and well...there is already multiple good reasons why Weiss dislikes Jaune.
I'm not saying they have to be best friends but, just a way for them to air out their grievances. Similarly I hope Yang gets an Arc like that too. Where her and Jaune can work through their problems and maybe help each other.
If you asked Yang... she really wouldn't have an answer. Anything she would say would pretty much be an excuse.
"I was busy being a Huntress."
"I was busy raising my daughter."
"I didn't know Menagerie was being attacked."
No matter what, she can't win. Blake can't win, either. What excuse does she have for not saving Menagerie when Jaune, who isn't a Faunus, did?
You mean Yang's wife, dude.
Oh, no. This was NEVER supposed to be a harem story. When I started the KOG universe, I wanted Jaune to be an ideal dad for Argent. Not an idiot, an actually competent parent, successful in his field of work, respected, and a good relationship with his wife.
Instead, it just kept evolving into a mess... like real fucking life. Hell, most of the current story shouldn't exist! Verde was never meant to be Jaune's daughter! She was just supposed to be an unimportant, random girl that Blake and Yang adopted! Instead, her character evolved into a future hero!
Sparrow wasn't supposed to exist either, and yet he became one of my favorite Arc Kids! Ruby was literally supposed to be the only woman Jaune ever had a child with, but look at KOG now! Oi.
Uh, this arc takes place in Menagerie. Would make absolutely no sense for Yang to be there instead of Blake. Hell, Nishi would HATE Blake for life if she missed what's gonna happen on Menagerie. Fun fact: not even Blake was supposed to be part of the Menagerie Arc. It just naturally happened.
Believe it or not... I WASN'T a Knightshade shipper. My favorite was always Lancaster from the very first time I saw Jaune introduce himself to Ruby. Then Arkos grew on me until... ya know. After that, it was just Lancaster for me when it came to Jaune. However, Deviant Art got me into Knightshade. Then some fan fics, then MORE fan art... then me. The moment I created Noire, it was over. Knightshade became #2 for me, even knowing it would never happen.
Also, a Dragonslayer kid would absolutely be stronger than Noire. If he was canon, he'd be the physically weakest out of all the Arc Kids. After all, the kid's not a Huntsman, nor does he want to be. He wants to be the next leader of Menagerie, following in his grandpa's footsteps and beyond. The fact that Jaune and Blake are proud of his dream is just icing on the cake.
Oh, absolutely no romance. No WhiteKnights here. Considering Jaune dated Winter and slept with Willow, it would be an awkward arc with Weiss.
Believe it or not, Jaune doesn't care about their Beacon days. . . He cares that she got to marry Ruby. He's still in love with Ruby, and everyone knows it.
V2 Boa Jade and Vinsmoke Julie-Jade: we should've said that Nat was an adopted/second daughter daughter to Howl and Inai instead Ghira and Kali and she does know all the Beast God styles, but it will be revealed and told later on.
. . . Wolf and MAYBE Shark, I can believe. Eagle is also probably but very iffy. However, Snake God Style? Do you have any idea how flexible you need to be to be able to use so much as Constrictor? The FIRST technique! Ya can only copy so much with will-power girls. Think of it as the equivalent of a Kekkei Genkai. Not even Sharingan can copy everything.
Q-I just found this and after some speed reading I just wanted to know is chapter 101 canon to this or no? Cause you said that if may be canon but I wanted to be sure. If it is then does that mean Blake is not really loyal to Yang? Cause while she was saying no her actions clearly said yes. Oh and just a side thing, did he bang Kali also? I wasn't sure, sorry if that last one is a dumb question with a obvious answer but it would be pretty nuts if he ended up giving Blake a little sister by accident.
Oh, no. Special Chapters are usually non-canon. They only times they're not is if I REALLY like an aspect of it and make it canon in the future. For example... Blake being pregnant could become canon because I REALLY like Noire. Kid has a lot of potential as a character and I already fell in love with the kitten. Also, yeah, he did Kali, but he didn't get her pregnant (thank the God of Animals). Though, Jaune did technically save Ghira from having the soul sucked out of him by his wife. HAH!
"A blindfold, huh," Verde asked as she wore the garment.
"Yes. It's part of the training."
"Hmm?"
"What," Nala asked with a raised eyebrow.
"And you're sure it's not just a kink of yours," Verde asked as she leaned in toward the cute lioness.
Nala blushed brightly. "D-DON'T MAKE FUN OF ME," she roared as she tried to punch Verde.
"Whoa-there," Verde laughed when she perfectly dodged Nala's punch.
"Huh?"
"Hm? Something wrong?"
"You... dodged my attack."
"And?"
"Are you wearing your blindfold properly?"
Verde giggled. "Kid, my mom is Yang Xiao Long herself. Do you really think she'd raise me WITHOUT teaching me the Xiao Long Style? She's put me through training like this before."
"Really?"
"My mom's biggest weakness was being sucker-punched back in the day, or so she says. She thought of this to help hone my hearing."
Nala's eyes narrowed. "Just your hearing?"
"Just my hearing."
"That's a shame."
"Hm?"
"If you want to properly master the Tiger God Style, ALL of your senses need to be in pique condition. Let's see how your other senses are."
"Sure, but how do you plan on... are you... jumping?"
"Give it a moment. I'm a Lion Faunus, after all. I'm not as good as Master Nishi, not even close, meaning I'm LIGHTYEARS away from Lord Byakko, so it takes me a bit of time to do it."
"To do wha-" Verde then realized something. Nala's hops were getting quieter and quieter until they vanished completely. "Did you really just hop away from me?"
"Not exactly," Nala said in Verde's ear.
"WHOA," Verde went after jumping away.
"I guess I should have mentioned you're supposed to hit me if you can," Nala said from behind Verde.
Verde then tried a swing kick in Nala's direction.
"Over here."
Elbow.
"Try again."
Verde jumped and tried to axe kick where Nala's voice came from, only to hit the ground.
"Ow," Verde went after Nala smacked the back of her head.
"Stop following my voice. You should realize by now that your ears can't help you in this situation."
"Alright, then." Verde tried to sniff the air.
"Ah, following your nose. Smart move... in any other area."
"Huh?" Verde sniffed the air again. "Oh, come on."
"You realized it, did you? There's a reason I brought you here. Lady Nishi said it would help calm my nerves after a tough training session, and she was right. Cultivating flowers is pretty therapeutic. I just wish I knew beforehand that she had me plant these to handicap my sense of smell. I was really proud of my tracking skills. Lady Nishi says that I'll be able to distinguish different smells further down the line, but for now, it's too advanced so I can smell everything, especially sweet-smelling flowers that basically mask our scent."
"Great. Just great."
"You know, there are two more senses you can rely on."
"Huh?"
"I'm sure Lord Arc figured it out already. Argent? . . . Probably."
"Are you saying I'm not as good as my cousin?"
"I said nothing," Nala said in a singsong tone.
Verde growled before she began to think. 'Two other senses?' She licked her dry lips, her eyes widening beneath her blindfold. 'Taste. Figured that out, but I doubt my tongue can help me in this situation. What was the other... I'm blindfolded, I can't hear her, my nose is basically in the perfume aisle of that clothing store, and I can't exactly taste her. . . That leaves touch. . . I have just the thing.'
Verde then clasped her hands together and began to take deep breaths. In and out. In and out. In. . . Out.
Then, Verde's hand shot out and grabbed something. Something warm and soft and small. She giggled as she took off her blindfold to see a surprised (and blushing) Nala. "Thanks, Grandpa Tai," she said with a smile.
Meanwhile, as he was watering his sunflowers, Tai shot up. "Why do I feel incredibly proud of my beautiful granddaughter right now?"
"Uh, good job," Nala went, still blushing.
"Thanks."
"Now... could you please let go of my boob?"
"Hm?" Verde looked to see that what she thought was Nala's warm, soft, small hand was actually her right boob.
". . . Huh. Pretty decent size for your age."
". . . Please, let go."
"Sure." Verde released Nala, the cute lioness staring at Verde with a deep blush and an angrily embarrassed expression. "What?"
SMACK
". . . So THAT'S what it's like," Verde groaned.
Blake was sitting in the living room, tapping her fingers on the table, staring at her steaming tea.
Her mother was also in the room, sipping her tea while Nimueh was reading the local newspaper. "Mm, stingrays are in season, huh? I didn't even know they were edible."
"Oh, most certainly," Kali said with a smile. Most people would rather see them in an aquarium, but the island's overpopulation made us desperate enough to try it. It turns out they're delicious. I even got to cook one."
"No kidding. Think we can catch one?"
"Well, you're quite the fisherman, Nimueh, so I don't see why not. I could teach you how to properly prepare it."
"I'd like that," Nimueh said as she went back to reading her newspaper. "Ah, the news about the mission to take out the Mo'o is in some really big font. Shows how important it is, eh?"
"Well, it does concern the future of our island," Kali said before taking another sip and glancing at her daughter. Kali then sighed. "Blake, sweetheart, the tea is better when it's still just a bit steamy.
"Hm? Oh, right." Blake grabbed her cup, took a whiff of it to let the aroma calm her down, and then took a quiet sip of the tea. She let out a content sigh afterward. "Delicious."
"Thanks," Nimueh said as she turned the page. "Oh, come on. Moana isn't even built yet and they're already making tourist plans for it?"
"You made the tea, Nimueh," Blake asked.
"It was my turn to do it. It's yours next."
"A-Ah. Right. Oh, and it makes sense to plan ahead, doesn't it? When it's built, Moana is bound to be a fisherman's paradise. The oasis has fish swimming in it already, after all."
"Mm. Well, it won't do much good until Jaune Conquers the Alpha Devil Dragon of the island. He won't be able to do that until that Mo'o is taken care of."
"Yeah. The Mo'o." Blake sighed.
"Blake," Kali went. "It's not good to keep it in."
Blake looked at her mom before looking at her tea. "Maybe... I should have tried to talk with Master Byakko."
"You're not seriously worried about those three learning the Tiger God Style, are you," Nimueh asked as she looked up from her newspaper.
"Well... it's just... Nimueh, be honest with me."
"Hm?"
"Are we... are we being overly reliant on your husband?"
"Possibly."
Blake's ears dropped. "No hesitation."
"But it's not exactly your fault. If you hadn't noticed, he has a bad habit of carrying the burden on his own. Sometimes I feel like the only reason he relies on me is that I'm the most powerful weapon in the world. Had I been anyone else, he'd probably think of any excuse to leave me behind and take on whatever threat is after him alone."
Kali giggled. "That sounds like Jaune alright."
"A stubborn hero, through and through," Blake sighed. She then took another sip of her tea before staring into her cup. "Of course, it doesn't help that I'm barely doing anything. There Jaune is, training with five of our greatest martial artists, unleashing oases, and giving the Faunus a chance to colonize our own island; while I'm here drinking tea with my mother and friend."
"Well, if it makes you feel any better, I've been spending most of my time in Menagerie being taught how to cook by your mom," Nimueh said as she placed the newspaper down. "I've pretty much been on vacation."
Blake looked up. "Are you planning on participating in the mission to exterminate the Mo'o?"
"Mhm."
"Well, that makes one of us. I didn't even try to volunteer for that mission," Blake said with a sigh, disappointed in herself.
"Don't beat yourself up over that. As you've probably noticed, Jaune doesn't have the best track record against giant opponents. The Mo'o might not be our biggest opponent yet, but it's still pretty big. It doesn't help that we're going to have to hold back."
"Huh," Blake went.
"It's true," Kali began. "It hasn't been made public, since it was a private meeting among the participants of the mission and Ghira, but it's agreed that Jaune can't go all out when facing the Mo'o. If he used Nimueh's full power, he'd probably turn the beast into dust."
Blake's eyes widened in realization. "We're planning on harvesting the Mo'o?"
"Of course," Nimueh went. "Given the fact that this thing is so big that it uses a desert as a swimming pool, the meat on that thing should last years, if it's edible, of course. And even if the meat was a bust, it still had massive tusks, giant claws, rows of teeth, and an entire massive skeleton. That thing is a treasure trove, and the team hunting it are the pirates after it."
"Howl suggested that we use the Mo'o's skeleton as the basis for the new village," Kali giggled.
"That sounds pretty badass, actually," Nimueh said.
"He's already making plans on how to build Puuwai O Ka Moku," Blake asked with a raised eyebrow.
"Puuwhatnow," Nimueh asked.
"It's the name of the village we'd build at the center of the island," Kali explained.
"Oh. What does its name mean?"
"Heart of the Island," Blake answered.
"Ooh."
"Well, we'll have to wait until Jaune finishes his training in the Tiger God Style before we can make any plans for Puuwai," Kali said.
"Do you think I should have gone with them," Blake asked.
"I'm not sure. Not even your father could learn Tiger God Style. He used what little he did learn from Byakko to make the Panther God Style, but as we all know, it can't really compare to Tiger God."
"I heard that," Ghira called from his office.
"Doesn't make it any less true, sweetheart," Kali called back. "Anyway, Blake, just relax. Jaune will have everything under control. He'll be the first true Beast God, take out the Mo'o, release the last two oases, and Menagerie will be visited by Lady Rain herself and we'll be a proper kingdom in no time."
Blake sighed. "It's amazing how simple it sounds when said out loud. I just wished we could help a bit more."
"I'm sure you'll find a way to help him," Nimueh said as she put down her paper and picked up her tea. She then gave Blake a look. "As long as you don't plan on 'thanking' my husband THAT way."
Blake blushed. "I-I'm married!"
"That didn't stop her," Nimueh said as she and Blake looked at Kali.
Kali just giggled before giving Nimueh bedroom eyes. "You certainly didn't complain when we shared a bed."
"MOM," Blake screamed in embarrassment.
Nimueh just gulped down her tea with a deep blush on her face before hiding behind her newspaper again.
Kali giggled as she rested her head on her hand while looking at Nimueh. "You're very cute, you know." Nimueh jolted behind her paper.
"MOM! . . . So..." Blake went after sipping more tea. "When do you think they'll be back?"
"Three..." Kali and Blake looked at Nimueh. "Two. And one."
The door opened.
"Man, you're good," Blake said.
"Mental link," Nimueh said in a singsong tone as she walked over to greet her husband, son, and niece. "Welcome home, you three. Wow, you all look like you got mauled by tigers," Nimueh giggled.
Jaune, Argent, and Verde all stumbled in, walking like zombies, marks and bruises all over them, some tears on their clothes, and a bit of dirt and rubble here and there.
"What? No witty remark, babe," Nimueh asked Jaune. He just kept stumbling toward her, eyes shadowed by his hair. "Uh, Jaune? Mind telling me what's-KYA!"
Blake and Kali looked into the hall to see Jaune on top of Nimueh, pinning her to the ground... his face buried into her breasts.
Nimueh had a neutral look, despite her deep blush. "All this time, I thought I married an idiot. Now I see I married a PERVERTED idiot. You absolutely did this on purpose."
"I swear, I didn't," Jaune's muffled voice went, his head comfortably between his wife's breasts.
"Mentally link, honey." There was a pause. "HURK," Nimueh went after Jaune squeezed her into a hug. "Fine, fine, I get it. But only because you trained like crazy today."
"Love you."
"Love you, too."
"Real lovey-dovey, aren't you," Blake asked before sipping more of her tea. She then jolted in surprise, her cat ears perking up before she sighed. "And who gave you permission to do that, young cub," Blake asked as she looked to see her nephew using her for a lap pillow. Unfortunately, Argent was already snoozing away.
Blake sighed. "Yeah, he's definitely exhausted. Not even asking for dinner. Fine. This kid is lucky I love him," Blake said before taking another sip.
"Verde," Kali went as she patted her lap.
Verde sighed. "I'm way too tired to retort that. Besides, seeing how comfortable my uncle and cousin are, there's no way I'm going to be the only one left out," Verde said before she gently placed her head on her grandmother's lap. "By the God of Animals, this actually feels amazing."
Kali giggled. "Anything for my beautiful granddaughter."
"So, did you learn Tiger God Style," Blake asked her daughter.
"Only up to the Fourth Claw. It's all Nala herself knew, so we're going to join Arie in training with Lady Nishi."
"The Fourth Claw," Blake mused. "Oh! Tiger King's Strike, right?"
"Mhm. Put all of your strength in your dominant arm, channel your Aura into it, and strike with the meanest punch this side of Remnant. I turned a tree into splinters using that move."
"That's amazing," Kali went. "That means you only need to learn the Fifth Claw."
"Tiger Slays Dragon," Verde yawned.
"That's my girl," Blake went proudly. "So, what about the superhero? Did he learn the Fifth Claw," Blake asked Nimueh, who was combing her hand through Jaune's hair.
"Hm? Oh, yeah. He mastered all Five Claws."
"NO FREAKING WAY," Verde went as she shot from her grandma's lap. "Ah. Instant regret," she said before flopping back on Kali's lap. "Uh. The room's spinning."
"Don't be so surprised, Ver," Nimueh went. "Your uncle was always brilliant. You have to remember that this is the same man who kept up with warriors like your moms with next to no training, only to become the best of the best. Plus, being the Grimm King gives him other perks."
"Translation, my uncle has cheat codes, the biggest cheat of them all being used as his pillow," Verde groaned.
"Okay, accurate, but still kinda pisses me off."
"Love you, Aunt Nim."
Nimueh sighed. "Love you, too, Ver. So, can anyone get dinner on the table? I'm kinda stuck here."
"Yeah, no luck over here," Blake said with a raised hand while stroking the sleeping Argent's hair, the boy snuggling closer to his aunt. Blake looked down and smiled at the boy.
"I can get up if you need me to, Gra-" Verde began as she started to sit up.
"Don't even think about it," Kali said as she gently brought her granddaughter's head back onto her lap. Didn't really need to put any force into it. Verde was that exhausted from training. "You realize it's not just the six of us in this house, don't you?"
"Oooh. Office?"
"Where else? Ghira," Kali called.
"On my way," he called back.
Moments later.
"Uh, what am I looking at," Ghira asked as he saw his granddaughter resting on his wife's lap, his "grandson" on his daughter's lap, and his guest on his wife's breasts.
"As you can see, we're a bit preoccupied. Don't worry. Nimueh and I already prepared the food. You just need a microwave," Kali explained.
"I... I see." Ghira cleared his throat. "Well, then, I had better get everyone's dinner prepared." He then walked toward the kitchen. "Oh, and before I forget, Jaune, did you learn all of Tiger God?"
Nimueh looked down before looking back at Ghira. "He said all he needs to learn now is Byakko's Gale."
"The Secret Technique! Very well done, my boy. Unfortunately, that will have to wait. Tomorrow is the day."
Jaune then released his wife and pushed himself up, looking serious. "The Extermination Mission: Mo'o Massacre; Mission Ranking: A."
