Settling In
A/N: I got nothing much to say this time. Except thank you all so much for reading my stories and Thank you all for liking them so much!
And, finally, My Hero Academia has officially ended. Well the manga has ended, and I got to say it was a bittersweet ending.

Deku loses One For All for good, and essentially becomes a quirkless hero, kind of like Ironman.
But with that out of the way, lets get this started!
As Tai, his daughters, guest, and new occupant, enter the big log cabin, immediately everyone felt that it was really homely. It was cozy, and very spacious.
A dining room in a corner, with a nice wooden table able to fit a family of 4 or 5, and a small path way to a nice spacious living room, with a coffee table, and family sized couch, revealing a wide screen for everyone, and a gaming console for everyone to use. Something Jaune feels he would be using during his down time.
The stairs leads to a second floor, but was not going to go up them without Tai's permission.
"Welcome to the Xia long/ Rose household! It is roomy, and very comfy if I do say so myself." Tai said, being smug in the end. Pyrrha and Jaune chuckled slightly, while, Yang and Ruby, sighed slightly, they felt that their dad was embarrassing, but chuckled in the end no less. They too believe that their home was very roomy, and comfy, there is something so…..comforting about log cabins, especially in the winter time.
"Now as you can see over there is the kitchen, if you want to make your own breakfast, lunch, dinner, etc. do so by all means. Just make sure you tell me what ingredients you will be using, don't want you using, the food I was going to make and eat." Tai said to Jaune. Jaune just nodded, and agreed with him. He will be upset if someone ate his food without them telling them.
They all entered the living room, and showed it around.
"This is the living room, we have a pretty nice tv so watch tv, or play any games you would like to play, just don't mess with anyone's saves, you will know pain." Tai introduced the living room, and getting a little serious, and slightly scary in the end. Jaune ended up nodding while giving as slight strained smile. He then felt a slight chill from beside him. It was coming from, both Ruby, and Yang, their looks both promised pain, if he didn't do what he was told.
"Y-you got it no problem." Jaune promised, feeling afraid slightly. Pyrrha looked on with some amusement. She was slightly worried for Jaune, but knew that this was a loving family, and wouldn't hurt Jaune too much.
"Over there is where you can eat at, if you so wish." Tai then pointed at the table near the kitchen and living room area. Jaune again just nodded his head with a smile, basic, but a strong table. Tai then motioned him to follow. They were now going upstairs, as they walked the flight stairs upward, Jaune could see some pictures of Ruby, Yang, and Tai growing up, and he could see one with an older version of Ruby, holding Ruby as a baby.
Ruby's mom was gorgeous, and she looks just like her mother, but just smaller. Both he, and everyone who knew Ruby, would grow to look like her mother. And he sees that Ruby inherited her eyes from her mother too. Some of the most unique, and gorgeous eyes he has ever seen.
They reached the top of the stairs, with Four doors, 3 on the left, and one on the right.
"The first door on the left is my room, knock on it if you need me if I am in there, don't enter it unless I say so." Tai told Jaune, with him nodding. Tai nodded, glad that Jaune understood him. And now in Tai's most important rules, in his own opinion.
"The other two are-" Tai was cut off.
"This one is my room, you can check it out if you want, I got nothing to hide from you~." Yang said with a slightly flirty look and talk to Jaune. This caused Ruby and Pyrrha to blush. And Jaune's whole face to turn red.
"YANG!" Ruby yelled out, now her face, the same color of her cloak. Yang just laughed at their expressions.
"What is it Ruby, jealous that he will find something better in my room than yours?" Yang teased her sister but looked back at Jaune with a flirty and sensual look.
"I hope you don't try to take any of my bras or underwear in there, you just need to ask!" Yang teased, and flirted to Jaune. That just caused Jaune, Ruby, and Pyrrha to go atomic, and caused Jaune to fall backward. Yang was busy laughing her butt off, but Yang stopped feeling her ear being pulled by her father.
"Ow ow ow ow! Dad stop!" Yang yelled out to her dad in pain. But Tai had a deadpanned, and disappointed look.
"Yang Xia Long, you caused the poor boy to pass out, and if he even tries that he is dead anyway. Now apologize when he wakes up." Tai said to his daughter sternly, and he yanked a little harder in the end.
"OWWW, ok I am so sorry Jaune!" Yang, yelled out to Jaune, who woke up, not too long ago.
"It's all good Yang, and I won't help myself to that, I will never do anything like that to you, or anyone else, I respect all of you too much for that." Jaune said to her. That caused Tai to smile, glad that Jaune was mature, and respectful towards him, and especially his daughters.
That caused the girls to blush, and gush silently to themselves glad that Jaune was a gentleman. Yang cleared her throat, and dropped the teasing smile, and went into a genuine smile.
"OK, but in all seriousness, you can check out my room if you want to, I do have some fighting books, and journals if you want to know how to throw a punch more, and with some comics and games if you want to." Yang said. Jaune thanked her, and felt excited to test out the games when he has time to do so.
Ruby used her semblance to go to her door. Almost jumping for joy slightly.
"And this is my room!" Ruby introduced excitedly and happily. This caused all of them to give off a small laugh. She was adorable, and couldn't resist that.
"Just like Yang, I got video games, and comics if you want to use them too. Oh, and I got weapon manuals, how to books, and tools in here if you want to use them for your new baby. But, please put the tools back when your done, I don't want to lose them." Ruby told him. Jaune thanked Ruby too. That was good, he can check out any books about his weapon, on how to fix, upgrade, or do whatever for his gun now. And he will not betray Ruby's trust, and do what's right for her.
"And the door right there on the right is your room. It is normally the guest room, and I open it up to Qrow, my brother in law essentially, and the girls here uncle, or drunkle." Tai, joked in the end, causing the girls, and Jaune to giggle a little.
"But, he likes to use coach more often than not. Just make sure you don't destroy it too much, if you want to add stuff to your room, you buy it yourself of course." Tai said to him, putting in ground rules for that.
"I understand, I got to figure out on what kind of job I can do." Jaune said to Tai, already thinking of what he can do. Tai smiled at that and decided to throw him a bone.
"I can help with that, you can also help me as an assistant over at Signal if I need ya, you will be payed for it of course, and you can learn how to do huntsmen things there too, it's a win-win." Tai said to Jaune, giving him an offer.
That caused Jaune to perk up, and smile in joy, he can learn something great, he can learn what it means to be a huntsman, but he knew that he can't go to an academy, but maybe he can find a way to be a hero later on in life. And, this would be his first step.
This also surprised both, Ruby, and Yang, for Jaune to go to their old school, it was surprising, but, they were glad, Jaune would be able to learn something, Pyrrha was also surprised, but at the same time elated, her first real friend, can learn something from a prep school, from time to time. She can still send him some pointers from time to time whenever she can get a chance.
She already made a video for him to get the basics, swings, foot placement, and shield placement. She is very confident that Jaune could get it easily.
Both Ruby and Yang did the same for him. But with Ruby teaching him how to take apart his gun, and to put it back together. And With Yang teaching him, the basic punches, and refine the basic punches for them to be the best. Truly he was so blessed to have so many great people willing to teach him, and be friends with him.
Tai then clapped his hands, to wrap up the tour.
"Well then, with that out of the way, Jaune get accustomed to your room, and all of you can talk to each other, you girls don't go back to Beacon until Sunday, so let's have a celebration dinner, lets do a pizza night!" Tai said to them, being very excited to eat some good pizza.
Ruby, and Tai were so happy, because they know the best kind of Pizza in all of Patch. Yang said, meat lovers, Jaune agreed with her, Ruby also wanted green peppers on hers. Pyrrha was so excited to, her first Pizza party with friends! She said that she would pay for some other stuff, because she wanted a seafood style, Tai was going to stop her, but she insisted. He agreed on it, and said he will go pick them up when they are ready.
But then he turned to Jaune, and gave him, a real stern look a dad could only give.
"No doing anything with my daughters while I am gone, or asleep, if I find out you did anything with my girls, you dead, and you will be kicked out." Tai said sternly to him.
That caused Jaune flinch, and become scared, but Ruby, and Yang, felt offended and angry at their father for doing that.
"Dad, don't threaten Jaune like that, he will never do anything to us!" Ruby defended Jaune, jumping on his back hugging him. This caused Jaune to blush and look bashfully. Yang went to his side and hooked her arm with his, pressing herself into him.
"Dad, we are in Beacon now, practically adults, in the legally speaking. We can take care of ourselves, and he will not do anything to us." Yang said to her father firmly. She was right, they can take care of themselves, and Yang was old enough to make her own decisions. And Ruby may be an adult in legal sense, but she was still 15, and not knowledgeable in other things like that.
Sure she may know about the birds and the bees, but she does not know the darker parts of it.
But, as a father he needs to have faith in his daughters to make the right decisions. But to his dismay, his oldest gain a mischievous look, and smile.
"You wouldn't have to worry about him trying anything." Yang said pressing her body more into Jaune putting his arm in between her boobs.
"You and him would need to worry about me making the first move~" Yang said almost sensually towards Jaune. This caused her friends faces to go red, and for Yang to turn red in anger.
"YANG/ YANG XIO LONG!" They all yelled at her, which Yang, let go of Jaune and just laugh at them. But, Tai went over grabbed her ear and twist it. He calmly told them, to settle in, while he goes get the pizzas, Pyrrha gave him some lien cards, and dragged Yang with him, at least to the car, while pulling on her ear. He eventually let go, and told them to behave themselves.
Yang was rubbing her now red ear.
"That hurt so much, I wouldn't just throw myself at someone, like that." Yang said. But then looked down. She remembered how she would egg someone, with her body, or a kiss, just to get what she wanted, and use that to get an advantage on anything. Granted she was still a virgin, she would never do that, she wants to save that for the right person, and she never did anything too sexual to anyone, it was always PG-13, the most extreme she did, was petting, grinding, and fondling.
That thought made her feel so bad of her actions. How much of a jerk, and tease she was. She did the same thing with Jaune just now, but for the most part, she did mean her making the first move, because after a while she can possibly see the two becoming more than friends someday, they just have to see.
'Now I feel like a bitch, and a slut. I know Jaune, Ruby, and the rest of the teams don't see me like that, but…..I felt like that. I need to apologize to him.' Yang thought to herself.
Yang went back into the house, to go find them. She heard some laughter and talking coming from Ruby's room. She walked by Jaune's new room, and see that he already put what little he had in there already. Clothes, games he had, comics, Crocea Mors, but not "Bellator Thorn." She walked to Ruby's room, and seen them all sitting around and Ruby being adorable about gushing over his weapon, and caused them all to giggle. Yang made her way in with everyone smiling at her. But faltered when seeing her upset.
"Jaune can I talk to you real quick, please?" Yang asked Jaune. They were all confused, but Jaune agreed anyway. They walked out the room, and Yang motioned over to his new room. As they entered Yang closed the door behind them, and was still looking upset. But not with anyone else, but herself.
"Soo, what is this about Yang?" Jaune asked Yang. Said girl looked at him slightly timidly.
"Jaune, I want to apologize to you." Yang said looking down, her hair slightly covering her face. That confused Jaune to no end.
"Why do you need to do that for Yang?" Jaune asked her, it was weird. Yang gave a deep inhale, and exhale, here she goes.
"Jaune….I want to says sorry to you because, I kept flirting with you." Yang confessed to him. That caused Jaune to tilt his head, and Yang continued.
"The reason I am apologizing is because it is something I am still working on, to fix myself. You always know that I flirt, and tease others, and doing that, I caused harm for others, and leading them on, without a care in the world." Yang said. She then looked him in the eyes, almost looking like on the verge of tearing up.
"And, I know that you have gone through a lot, especially from women. You told us about the bullying from other girls, leading you on, giving you bad signals. And when dad scolded me essentially, I was reminded of the bad things I did. And I couldn't do that to you, I was going too far, especially when it was overly sexualized, you have gone through a lot of bad things, and I don't want to add that onto you." Yang said, with some tears trickling down slightly.
"So Jaune Arc, I am so sorry for what I was doing so please, don't hate me, and please give me time to be better than this." Yang said bowing her head, with tears now coming down. She stood there silently, feeling like Jaune was really angry with her, she just hopes and prays that Jaune can forgive her, and they can continue to grow as better friends.
With nothing happening she was shaking in fear slightly, he didn't forgive him, he didn't like her anymore, and for some reason, that thought hurt her more than anything!
But to her surprise, she felt his hands on her shoulders, and she looked up. Seeing Jaune with a kind smile and look on his face, and kind eyes looking back at her. And to her surprise, he hugged her. Why is he so loving towards her, he should hate her right?!
"Thank you , for apologizing to me." Jaune said to her, now holding her a little bit tighter, and soothingly rubbing his hand around Yang's back.
"But, you didn't have to apologize to me, I know you flirt, and tease with the people you care about, but, you know when to be serious, and you truly do love the people around you. Flirting, I can tell is kind of a defense for yourself, I remember you telling me briefly that your afraid of people leaving you, so I believe that is what that is." Jaune said to her. That caused her eyes to widen. Her flirting and teasing is a defense mechanism for herself?!
"I'm kind of like that, I try to make people laugh sometimes, so people can at least be positive to me, so you don't have to apologize for that, but if you feel that you need to do something different for yourself, I am all in support for you, but don't try to change yourself too much, we won't leave you, I won't leave you, I will let you know if things go too far ok? You, Ruby, Pyrrha, all of you are important to me, so don't worry, I am right here." Jaune said to her.
That just caused Yang to cry harder, and hold him tightly, this boy, no, this young man, has seen her for her, like he does with Pyrrha, he doesn't hold it against her, it was such a relief, and she is so happy to have him in her life. It doesn't help that his speech to her made her heart flutter a little, and she truly does love holding him.
Outside the room, both Pyrrha and Ruby was listening in. They both smiled at each other glad that Yang, is maturing better, and not being a jerk, throwing her looks around just to get what she wants. And they knew one thing now. Ruby leaned over and whispered to Pyrrha
"We may have to open a new slot for Yang, it's obvious now that she truly likes him like we both do huh?" Ruby said to Pyrrha. Pyrrha then giggled silently she was right they have someone new, and they had to talk to Yang about this later on.
As things calmed down, Yang looked at Jaune with red, and puffy from crying, but was getting her bearings back, and gave a genuine good smile, nothing flirty, but a genuine happy good smile.
"You know Jaune, I don't hold onto people like that now adays, true I did something like that in the past, but not that tightly. I was genuine in caring for you, and dad needs to know that I can make better decisions, and be careful. I hold you in a high regard, and your my friend, and I do like holding and hugging you, I can see why both Pyrrha, and Ruby like to do it a lot. You make me feel safe, and comfortable, and don't worry, I am working on that to not do that to get what I want.
I do flirt and tease you like that because I genuinely like you Jaune Arc, and I hope we can grow to have a better relationship in the future."
Yang said to him blushing slightly but smiling. Jaune blushed and smiled too. This goddess of a woman was so happy to know him, and be his friend, he truly was blessed. Three amazing women in his life, that was not his family was truly amazing.
"Then let's continue to grow to be better than ever, all of us." Jaune said to her giving him a dorky smile. One she giggled at, he was adorable to her. She never thought that this guy who threw up on her shoes would become friends with her, and start to grow to be something more it was amazing.
As they left the room, Pyrrha and Ruby, stood there, and gave them both a big hug, knowing that their relationships with each other, will only continue to grow, and both Pyrrha and Ruby both agreed to wait until they get back to Beacon to talk to Yang about everything.
They went back to Ruby's room, and started talking more about his new weapon. She showed him how to take apart the bare minimum onto cleaning it, and how to take it fully apart deep clean it or, to add new internal, and external parts if needed. She and Yang showed him how to shoot it by dry firing, and Yang showed him how to brace himself better with a shotgun, she at least wanted to help in some way. Pyrrha showed him the barrel change feature again, she wanted to at least show him how to fire more accurately. In her opinion, both Ruby, and herself, were evenly matched when it comes to accuracy.
They both had a friendly competition in shooting, she really enjoyed it, and seen how accurate her fellow leader's shooting truly is.
And she will say, Ruby is just slightly better than her, it was truly amazing, and she found a new friend and rival to improve herself with!
Tai came back with the pizzas, and other snacks for it, while they all sat around and watched movies, and showed video games to each other. They all played a fighting game, with Tai coming on top. He said along the lines of "hey experience, in both real life and in fiction, can really help ya." He bragged slightly, and let the four play by themselves, they all had a good time, and soon enough it was night time, and both teammates let their teams know that they are safe, and sound, and about to go to bed.
As they all went to bed, Jaune couldn't help but think that, things will be tough going forward, but he can take it on head on. He has so many great people in his life, and he will grow stronger, for himself, and for them, this he swears again as an Arc, and we all know how Arcs are with keeping their words. Tomorrow he will start training with Bellator Thorn, it will be tough but it will be worth it.
Jaune closed his eyes and let sleep take him, he has a big day tomorrow.
A/N: So another chapter in the books, and I am so sorry for taking a while, and the words not fitting together interesting enough, and things repeating itself, to be honest I was running out of ideas on how to write this story, but hopefully moving forward I can continue to be better, and make things interesting.
I am still working on Danmachi x RWBY, with he Jack Bird, let's see how that will go, chasing that giant rooster around, and when I tell you that when a bird does not want to get captured, they will not stop moving. So until next time take everyone, and May God Continue To Bless You All!
