Painting the Forever Forest Red!
"Man, I thought that history homework would never end." Wolverine sighed as he closed his notebook.
"It wasn't that hard; it was only a 12-page question of two eras." Weiss stated.
"It was still torture to my brain, I've been to Vacuo before, but I never knew anything like that." Wolverine said.
"Perhaps you should've done a little more studied to be prepared." Weiss pointed out.
"I'm always prepared… to kill some Grimm." Wolverine showed off his claws.
"That's certainly one way to 'claw' your way out of a situation." Yang punned, the team groans except Wolverine who laughs a little.
"Well, I'm getting bored now, so I'll be off to the training room." Wolverine said.
"Just don't forget we have a field trip tomorrow." Weiss reminded.
"Oh, and could you check if I left one of my workout shoes there?" Ruby asked.
"Got it." Wolverine said before leaving the room.
(Training Room)
Wolverine is dodging bullets that are fired by machine guns that are appearing up from the ground like a game of whack-a-mole, only it's the moles doing the attacking with guns, while he slices some bullets with his claws and sliced few of the machine guns into pieces. He picks up the pieces and throws them at the last two machine guns making them force to focus on the incoming sliced pieces which gave Wolverine the distraction he needs to charge at them and ran pass them with his arms across each other, three seconds later the three machine guns fell.
"Very well done, you certainly kept yourself in shape before coming here." A woman said walking to Wolverine revealing herself to be Glynda.
"I learned to survive for past decades after I finally escape from that hellhole, there were Hunters in that lab one of them was Qrow." Wolverine mentioned.
"Yes, he and Team STRQ explained the situation at the lab and the… inhuman things they did to you as a little child. After you escaped, they and the Headmaster search for you, but could never find any trace." Glynda explained.
"Yeah, I didn't even think they were trying to help me, I was a little kid who was both scared and confused. All I could was surviving on my own." Wolverine said.
"But you're not alone, not anymore, you have your team and friends who will be there you. You were given a chance to come here to be better and show everyone what you're capable of." Glynda said with a warm smile.
"Yeah, Fury believe that too even though he knew I killed before and gave me the speech about our world being messed up including the broken moon." Wolverine recalled his first meet with Qrow and Nick.
"Yes, besides Ozpin, Nick has always know what to say even when things get rough. Just know if you need anything or if you're in any trouble, you have people here who can help you." Glynda placed a hand on Wolverine's shoulder with a smile.
"Thanks, you actually a really nice teacher when you're not being all strict like in class." Wolverine complimented, making the blonde teacher blush.
"I'm strict to my students because I believe they can do better, but cause trouble they'll have to suffer in my detention." Glynda bragged.
"Yeah, like how you punished Cardin and his team for picking on an upper classman." Wolverine chuckled.
"You were lucky I was there at the time, now I believe it's time you head back to your dorm. We leave for the Forever Forest." Glynda said.
"Got it, see you in the morning sexy-witch." Wolverine walked away.
"To you as well." Glynda said before she realized what Wolverine just called her and her face started blushing.
"Did… did he really called me sexy?" Glynda asked herself.
(Hallway to Team RWWBY's room)
Wolverine is walking toward his team room when he saw Ruby and Jaune talking.
"Because it's not just about you anymore. You've got a team now, Jaune. We both do! And if we fail, then we'll just be bringing them down with us." Ruby said as she gets up and place her hand on her hips.
"We have to put our teammates first, and ourselves second. Your team deserves a great leader, Jaune. And I think that can be you." Ruby believed.
"Well said, Ruby. Well said." Wolverine complimented his leader with the speech surprising the two.
"How long have you been standing there?" Jaune asked.
"When Ruby gave her speech, so what's been eating you up, Jaune?" Wolverine asked.
"Uh, let just say I have a secret and I told Pyrrha about it only to push her away and Cardin is using it to blackmail me into doing his biding. And I just got a text from him saying that he wants some wraps for some reason." Jaune informed.
"Sounds like he wants revenge, probably on Pyrrha for correcting him during Oobleck's history class." Wolverine guessed.
"Should we inform Professor Goodwtch?" Ruby asked.
"No, I think I know a way to make sure they don't mess with you again, but I'm gonna need the full detail of the situation." Wolverine said.
"Well, I think I can trust you can Ruby to keep this s secret at least." Jaune said before he brings them into a huddle to tell them about what happened.
(Tomorrow, Forever Forest)
Within the area of the endless red color of the Forever Forest, Glynda is escorting team RWWBY, JNPR, and CRDL through the woods while Jaune is carrying a big box with a few jars on top, but he can still see the admiring scenery of the forest as everyone else finds it amazing.
"Yes, students, the forest of Forever Fall is indeed beautiful. But we are not here to sight-see. Professor Peach has asked all of you to collect samples from the trees deep inside this forest, and I'm here to make sure none of you die while doing so." Glynda said before holding up an empty jar.
"Each of you is to gather one jar's worth of red sap. However, this forest is full of the creatures of Grimm, so be sure to stay by your teammates. We will rendezvous back here at 4 o'clock. Have fun!" Glynda explained and the students shatter to collect the saps.
"Come on, buddy, let's go." Cardin bragged Jaune away from the others.
Jaune quickly look at Wolverine and doing a thumb up, giving him the signal that he will be alone with Cardin's team, Wolverine glance at Ruby telling her in silent that he'll be going and she gave the okay nodded before the savage boy sneak off without being notice.
He follows Jaune and team CRDL to the top of a hill.
"Alright boys, old Jaune here managed to round up an entire box of Rapier Wasps, and now, we're gonna put him to work." Cardin smirked holing the box of wasps. Wolverine has his scroll on recording to get the whole thing.
"Now, according to one of the essays you wrote for me last week, these nasty things loooove sweets. I'm thinking it's time we teach her a thing or two." Cardin stared angry at Pyrrha who is finishing collecting her sap.
"And you're gonna do it." Cardin handed Jaune the jar.
"He won't be doing anything for you anymore, bub." Wolverine said finally revealing himself to the others.
"Oh good, I was getting worried there for a second." Jaune sighed in relief.
"What?" Cardin confused.
"Jaune filled me in about you have a leash on Jaune because of him faking his way into the academy, well, let me tell you that telling Headmaster Ozpin would be pointless." Wolverine said.
"What makes you say that?" Cardin demanded.
"Think about it for a moment, Ozpin is known to be a bright man with good judgement, did you really think he wouldn't notice that fake transcript Jaune?" Wolverine answered with a question.
It took Cardin and his team a few seconds or more to think about what Wolverine said, then the school bully leader came to one realization.
"He already knew about Jauney boy's fake transcript from the very beginning and still let him in!" Cardin said shock.
"(Whoa, for real? Even I didn't know that!)" Jaune thought gasped.
"That's what I believe, he sees potential in Jaune like everyone else who were accepted into the school and he must've saw that one you too, so if you don't to get more detention then you better start behaving like a good boy." Wolverine said.
"Oh, and I also got your plan recorded and emailed it to Ruby, she's probably showing it to Professor Goodwitch by now." Wolverine mentioned just to tick Cardin off.
"Oh yeah…" Cardin grunted looking around and saw the jar in Jaune's hand swipe it into his.
"Let see you like getting stung by a box of wraps!" Cardin threatened and threw the jar of sap at Wolverine.
However, the plan backfire as Wolverine easily caught the jar in his hand and threw it back at Cardin shattering the glass jar and staining his armor in the sap.
"I think you might want to rethink your life choices." Wolverine stated.
Cardin felt angry and took out his mace to whack Wolverine so hard, he would feel a major headache for weeks except that's unlikely since Wolverine has an indestructible metal skeleton, though Wolverine didn't bother to let it hit him as he moves aside letting the mace hit the ground.
"Give it up, dude, you can't even touch me." Wolverine said.
"I don't care, I'm still gonna beat you into a bloody mess and" Cardin's sentence was cut off when suddenly a big Ursa bear jumped behind him and roars.
"There's some behind me, isn't there?" Cardin asked.
Cardin slowly turns around with a face of fear while his team and Jaune have also become scared at the sight of the Ursa, Wolverine on the other hand is bracing himself for a fight with his claws out and wonder if there are any more of them here.
Cardin tries to shake the feat our of his head and ready to swing his mace to the head, but he got pushed away by a tackle from another Ursa. The second Ursa's nose starts sniffing something sweet in the air and spotted the sap stain Cardin's chest armor, apparently Ursa love sweets as much as the Rapier Wasps does, who knew. And now the Ursa has set its sight on the sweet scent and Cardin as well.
"Hey guys, little help…?" Cardin begged, but he found them shaking in fear for a few seconds and then ran for their life while screaming like little girls and to be honest, Cardin wanted to run away like a little girl too.
The Ursa is about to swing its claw down at Cardin as he brace himself for death, but a bonk noise was made and he open his eyes shock to see Jaune blocking the attack with his shield and stab his sword in the Ursa's making it roar in pain. Jaune quickly move out of the way as the Ursa is now focusing its attention on him, which Jaune is actually scared of but he has to fight the Ursa so that it doesn't go after those guys and find the others.
Meanwhile, Wolverine is dealing with the first Ursa as it thrust both paws at him only to be stabbed in the paws by his claws which is painful for the monster black bear though didn't back down as it tries to push itself forward to push Wolverine back, but he remain strong on his ground and struggles against in a contest of strength against the bigger black bear. Wolverine seems to be pushing back the Ursa a bit and even made it step back a foot, he then looks to see Jaune struggling against the second Ursa as he only does defense with his shield though manages to attack it twice with his sword though still having a bit of trouble.
Wolverine decided to end this fast by slashed down through the Ursa's arms causing black mist to come out like blood except its smoke and the Ursa roaring in pain that its arms are too damage to be used anymore, then Wolverine jump strong stabbing his claws of the right hand then slash the head off in an instant. Wolverine drops on one knee for a dramatic pose while the now dead Ursa drop to the ground and its body poof into black smoke.
"Alright, that's done, now to see if Jaune needs any help." Wolverine said as he went to step into the fight, but then he stops himself upon seeing Jaune doing a little better than before.
(Music-The Day: My Hero Academia OST)
The last Ursa threw his claws at Jaune for the kill, but the young Arc knight use his shield to slide pass it and performed an uppercut swing to cut off the Ursa's arm left which made it roar in pain and swing its arm at Jaune sending him flying a few feet away. Jaune get himself back up to see the one-armed Ursa charging in anger to kill the human boy, he decided to do the same and move to the left where he cut off the missing limb as he created a weak spot to attack. Jaune starts slashing at the slide and quickly back when the Ursa turns to bite him with its teeth.
"I'm gonna need to end this, now." Jaune muttered to himself as he checked his aura gauge as it's almost at the red zone.
The Grimm bear roars angry that it wanted to end this human boy's right now and starts running on all three for one final charge, Jaune gritted his teeth and tighten his grip on his sword before charging at the Ursa as he ready his sword for the final attack. However, in the heated moment Jaune left his shield down unable to protect himself from the incoming claw.
"Damn it, Jaune!" Wolverine snarled seeing how careless Jaune is right now.
But before he could do anything, he notices a faint black outline aura appears around Jaune's shield and lifts it up to block the Grimm attack which brought Jaune down one knee and he jumps strong with a slash that cut off the head.
(Music End)
"Whoa, that glow, it almost looks like…" Wolverine looked to see Ruby, Weiss, and Pyrrha who seem to have arrive a little early and must've watched the fight. He also notices the same black glow on Pyrrha's hand meaning she must've use her magnet semblance to help Jaune.
"Those two are definitely a couple." Wolverine chuckled.
Jaune walks up to Cardin who was shocked to see the wimpy boy he's been picking one since one or two at Beacon and help him up his feet.
"Holy crap, Jaune!" Cardin gasped.
"Don't ever mess with my team - my friends - ever again. Got it?" Jaune threatened with a dead serious stare. This actually scares Cardin making a silent promise not to mess with Jaune and his friends again as the Arc Knight turns around walking away.
"Remember what I said about Ozpin seeing potential in everyone, including you." Wolverine said as he walks pass Cardin.
"Better yourself to show him that he didn't made any mistake of letting you in." Wolverine lectured and follow Jaune to the girls, leaving the school bully a lot to think about om himself and his actions.
KO a new chapter is done and hope you all enjoy it!
Well, it looks like both Jaune and Wolverine left a heavy impact on Cardin in both big words and dealing with the unexpected two Ursas. I hope you like seeing Jaune fighting that Ursa a little better than in the show and I kept the part about Pyrrha helping him in secret, and it looks like Wolverine's claim on Jaune and Pyrrha being a couple may come true sooner than they thought.
