Sorry for my bad English.
Why authors make OCs to change the original story? Perhaps because they don't like how the story is going and put the OC to change it? I mean, I actually thought about that with Oscar because let's be honest, a voice in your head just say to you cross half world you would do it?
Ryan was not the first option I had to put in some character's place. One of the first ideas I ever had about this was instead of Oscar, make Ozpin appear inside of someone who had some goal in his life, and refused to went to Mistral and let everything he worked so hard to have behind, all because a voice in his head told him that he needed to go.
I can picture an image every time I think about this. Made me think, if someone want to replace a character with an OC, it can make an interesting story, but this not will happen just because the author did not like the way the story is going.
But hey! This is my opinion. You don't need to take serious if don't want to.
Enough said. To the fic!
Headmaster Office
Ozpin from time to time could have problematic talks with the parents of his students. Sometimes the student's parents refused to take some action regarding their children's actions. Some of them could side with their children even knowing what they did was wrong. Ozpin always did his best to keep his nerves calm and not use any not necessary word.
But even like that, Wolf Forest could always hit his nerves by being, in the better words, a total douche.
The man has black hair tied in a ponytail, beard with a cut closer to his lips and blue eyes. He was wearing a white shirt and overall, but the suspenders were tied in his hips instead of hanging on his shoulders.
At the moment, he was talking to the retired huntsmen with the holo-screen of his desk.
-And that is the story. –Ozpin said, finishing the tale about his son in the Danger Zone and about the challenge.
-You decide to interrupt my work here on my ranch so you could tell this? –Wolf asked with a hint of annoyance.
-I just wanted to let you know what your son will face from now on while in my school Mr. Forest.
Wolf blinked for a few times before spoke again.
-You decide to interrupt my work here on my ranch so you could tell this?
-You do not seem very concerned about what your son will have to face.
-It is because I know that wherever he will go, trouble will follow him. –Wolf said rubbing some dirt off his ear. –So why waste my time on something I know will happen?
Ozpin sighed. It is not for nothing that Wolf is famous for being infamous.
-There something else that I wish to know Mr. Forest.
-I will not teach you how to get in the panties of your assistant.
-It is not that. –Ozpin said in an annoyed tone. –Your son at least one time unlocked someone's aura?
-No, he's not.
-So why did he not decide to unlock his partner's aura while in the Danger Zone?
-How should I know?
-Are you telling me that you, his father, do not know if there is something wrong with your own son?
- You mean beyond what already is wrong with him?
Ozpin knew that Wolf was lying for the fact that despite his sarcastic question, the man went to a bored expression to an empty ace.
- Okay. There one more thing I'm curious, we discover that your son has a device to limit the use of his own aura for having three times more aura than a normal person should have.
-So what?
-What happened when his aura was unlocked?
Wolf remained silent for a while. Ozpin couldn't tell what the man was thinking, not with that empty expression.
-I don't know. –Wolf answered. –I was not with him when his aura was unlocked.
-Who unlocked his aura?
-I don't know.
-You… don't know? –It is hard to surprise Ozpin, but he was shocked to hear that.
It is common for the parents unlock their children's aura, or for an instructor to do it for them, but it is the first time he ever heard about a man who not only wasn't present but don't know either who unlocked the aura of his own son.
Ryan really has a complicated relationship with his father.
-Mr. Forest, there really is nothing else that you wish to tell me?
-Yes. –Wolf said leaning closer. –If you keep prying into something that is none of your business, I will send you to the broken moon with a punch straight on your shin.
And with that, Wolf grabbed a black revolver and shot straight at the direction of the screen, ending the call.
Ozpin knew that something is wrong with Ryan for the simple fact he did not unlock Jaune's aura, which is something anyone with aura can do.
Infirmary
- For it is in passing that we achieve immortality. Through this, we become a paragon of virtue and glory to rise above all. Infinite in distance and unbound by death, I release your soul, and by my shoulder, protect thee. –Pyrrha's words echoed a little in the room, as a white glow start to emanate from Jaune's body.
After that, some of his wounds from the battle against the Behemoth's organs almost healed completely. He soon felt like could take anything that Remnant would throw at him. Until the nurse shoved him back into his bed.
-Ouch! –Jaune whined. –Ms. Fuyu!
-We do not know if you are completely healed, so until I make sure you are okay, you will be sitting on this bed.
-Yes, ma'am. –Jaune said making Pyrrha and the rest of the CNVL and team RWBY chuckle a little.
After he was excused from the headmaster officer, Jaune was sent to the infirmary to check up his wounds. Not soon after Yukino start to check his wounds, Pyrrha and Ruby, along with their teams wanted to check Jaune, making Ryan feel a bit bad for having nobody who wanted make sure he was fine.
Of course, after seeing his wounds, they asked about why his aura was not healing his wounds and was there that he reveal his aura was not unlocked yet, making everyone stare at him with surprise to be able to survive battles against Grimms without aura to back him up. At that moment, Pyrrha offered to unlock his aura which he accepted.
He would not let Ryan fight alone again.
At the moment, Jaune was telling to everyone in the room what he went through with Ryan on the Danger Zone. And by everyone, I mean only Ruby, Pyrrha, and Nora. Weiss did not find any reason to stay more than necessary in the company of Jaune and left the infirmary first than anyone.
Followed by Chocolat, Blake, and Yang who told to Jaune and Ryan try nothing funny and left. Ren was the last one to left, telling to Nora if Jaune looks too tired to keep with his history, it is to her let him rest.
-Ooohhhh! You both were eaten alive by a giant dragon Grimm and face monsters inside of a monster?! –Nora shouts while jumping in one of the beds. – That must have been awesome!
-Not so awesome from our point of view. –Ryan commented.
-Jaune. –Pyrrha called the blonde. –Can we talk about this Challenge?
-Sure. Something you want to know? –Jaune asked the redhead.
-I'm just want to know if you and Ryan plan to go through this Challenge just to be accepted here in Beacon.
The duo went silent for a moment, with Ryan looking at the floor and Jaune to the wall.
-Ozpin gave us some time to think before giving an answer. –Jaune began to talk. –I don't want to all the work me and Ryan have to go to waste, but I'm a little worried.
-About what?
-The truth is that I-
-Bee! –Ryan shouted, interrupting Jaune and tackling him out of the bed.
-Jaune, are you alright? –Pyrrha asked worriedly.
-That was a good tackle huh, Ryan? –Nora asked watching they both on the floor.
-Ladies, if you both excuse me and my friend. –Without wait for an answer, Ryan dragged Jaune to the bathroom of the infirmary. Leaving Nora, Ruby and Pyrrha a bit confused.
-I never see someone act like that because of a bee. –Nora commented.
Inside the bathroom, Ryan put Jaune back at his feet and had his hand pressing against his mouth.
-Ryan, what was that about? –Jaune asked.
-I knew what you were planning to say, and I think is better if no one knows about your situation here in Beacon.
-Why not?
-I don't think that some of our classmates will like the idea of someone who forged his transcription attend the same school as they were accepted after hours of hard work.
Jaune opened his mouth to say something, but decide to went silent. He still is a fraud, no matter if the headmaster gives an opportunity for him. Pyrrha must have worked hard to be accepted, and from what he learned from Weiss, she already won some kind of tournament.
Ruby was younger than him, so she must be really good to Ozpin allow her to enroll in Beacon earlier than the others. Not only that, she is the leader of her team. He could never think of himself as a leader.
-So I have to keep secret about my transcription?
-Just for now. If the time comes for you to reveal about what you did, I think you need to wait until this time comes.
-Alright, I will keep secret about this for now but now that we are alone, can I ask something?
-Sure. What is?
-Pyrrha actually asked me why did you not unlocked my aura back in the forest. After hearing everything she told me about aura, I curious too about why did you not do this.
-Jaune, I would love to tell you that, but I'm forbidden by the military of Atlas to tell anything about my situation.
-I just thought that since we are going to be partners, It would be better if-wait a minute, forbid by the military of Atlas?! –Jaune asked in shock. –And what do you mean by your situation? It is related to that thing about you have three times more aura than a normal person?
-No. Someone once told me that is just rare in some people. What happens to me is that something happens ten years ago, something that messed with my aura.
-But you don't seem messed at all.
-At first, but I'm actually not normal. That because I did not unlock your aura in the forest.
-Because your aura is already messed, so you don't know what would happen if you try to unlock the aura of someone else.
-Pretty much.
-And why did Atlas forbid you to say about this?
-I already spoke too much Jaune. Like your transcription, if the time comes, I will tell you, but for now, I will keep for myself. The question is, can I trust you to keep secret about my situation.
-Of course, you can.
With those affirmations, they shared a brofist, unknown that three pair ears were listening to their conversation. When they left the bathroom, found Pyrrha and Ruby sitting in one of the beds, and the peculiar vision of Nora, laying in the same bed, with her back against them, and a hand in her hip.
They both shrugged and told to the girls they would walk to the dorm it was assigned for them for the night, and on the next day they would talk to Ozpin and left the infirmary. Once they were off, Nora and Pyrrha relaxed.
-We are lucky that they are kinda dense. –Nora said, Ruby and Pyrrha nodded.
Another question that appears is what the girls will do with what they both just discover.
End of the chapter.
Someone PM me and told me about an program that correct grammar mistakes and that I should try it. With nothing to loose, I decide to give a try. It is already set in my computer, so for now I will wait for the results. I will wait to see throught the reviews if the grammar of my fics got better and if got better, I will keep using.
Side note, I actually forgot that Ruby was with the duo in the infirmary, something I fixed already. The worst is that I just realized this before I went to sleep.
Someone else also PM me asking to me about the pairings and asked if I was going to ship Ryan with some character in this fic. This is not something I put too much thought for now. When I make an OC, I don't plan to ship him with an original character at first, I check every angle of the posibilities of their interactions before try ship them, maybe except with those who appeared in Vytal Festival.
Who read my OC story, know that I actually already shiping Ryan with an character, but since I'm doing this in a different way, I will be open for the possibility.
That's all folks. Until next time.
