As the very will of this stranger world turns in it's very endless struggles from many different thing included peace and war and struggle and things that come out or in betweens them and as then And the very results of this stories were made as to keep as the very hope of people strong for the better and as The very fallen amongst them just leaves tell a story or retell it in very different ways and different alteration towards it now.
As long enough this is very much a tale of old as that regaled a would-be of manys heroes but then one of them was the most unique amongst them all as he is definitely different from the rest of them and he's was blessed with great light but then in the end as he was very much was deprived and from shorn of light by a brother god's as whom Grace had once blessed him and the brothers with her light and guidance now and then but then one day as the world call for him he just didn't respond towards it as he was just despected by his mistakes and choices in life to notice the situation and then when he's will see that very light again then he will travel from a different land and towards a land far beyond has the very meager confines of life and a as death that had so ceaselessly has gripped has the very essence of that's which it governed has In a time when legends and gods as still roamed the shattered graves of a war once seen and the very devoid of all gold and very much honor as it is a story of loss and A story of hope and redemption against himself now.
Where's a boy become a man of no renown, plucked from the feeble recesses of obscurity, would ever toil in hardship and very resignation to his forced fate as Cursed to a life undying, and blessed with a mortality unyielding will and the new choices he's shall make.
This is that story.

WORLD OF REMNANT
FIVE YEARS LATER
POV
As the very night in the kingdoms of vale was just has peacefully as always as the very crowded street's of people and highways of Vale sang a choir of traffic as the lights of lamps, cars, and as buildings illuminated the very city as the very soprano of this choir, roaring down as the highway and just towards downtown was active than anything from normal businesses and just from crime related incidents just occurring during this very times of hour's but then this very story in not just related to that's part of city but to a another part of the very kingdom that's was to one of it's region's outside and it's very borders and toward's another settlement around the very mountainside and in the forest areas as well in the region of Arcadia one of the ancient and the oldest settlement and then borderline defense of the kingdoms of vale and it's was part of the greatest empire that once existed in his entire continent a long time ago and one of it's very greatest generation's of warriors and Lord's in the entire world of Remnant as ever seen and as in just now has this is story of a boy and his very troubles and his very troubled decisions.
"I don't understand why's you won't train me !" As the voices could be heard from a house in the settlement and as it's was quite different from the rest of them as it's was more of a mansion as than a house and than anyone else here could afford it and it had a little bit of history of it and as then it was connected to more to a farm and to a house and an stronghold as it may look like and voices could be heard from as the living room of two individuals we're bickering with as one another "I've already told you, for the last time's boy but in the end you won't still listen ! And Just accept as what I'm saying, Jaune ! !!! As You just can't and as won't be a huntsman !!!!!" As then It's seldom that's voices were raised within the very Arc Household has especially by Nicholas Arc himself as Though the currents head of the family, he'd always kept a level head and when it came to the more…... strenuous parts of his very life and his very time's as a huntsman of Kingdom of vale and as one of it's very oldest and greatest lord's of his region to the very renowned Arc lineage gave him no small amount of tutelage as when it came to fostering patience and subtlety in as the previously impetuous man and but as then give it's is responsibilities to his very much people well-being and then kingdoms very demands as times can tell and then given the sizes of his very own family, members as it'd have to be that's way otherwise and he'd have lost his very own mind a long time ago by now by the very responsibilities and stress he had just displayed in their very time and just sacrifices of many people that then love and respect now. As then what about this very argument though ? It's is very simple as no amount of tolerance as could ever keep Nicholas calm just about this as it's just put Just him in aggravated to no end and just hearing his one and very only son just was as constantly striving to become a huntsman the very hero and protector's of humanity as whose missions was to eradicated the
scourges of the nightmarishly creature's of darkness and as that's just had plagued Remnant for countless centuries till now and that they are just know Grimm's and then they say A grand calling just yes ? No Under any other circumstances or as in any other family, has they'd be proud of their very son's noble goal's, of his very aspirations to be a guardian of mankind just like his ancestors as it did made him proud but there just more to be a huntsman and hero that meets the eye.
To be a hunter was a tremendously honor but then it's was also a great burden to many and it is a very living curse with it. And then Nicholas knew this by the hard way just when he's lost so much when the day he just became a huntsman and to make his very own father pound of him as he thought Nicholas thought he can fix the very world one day but he was just so wrong as when he became one just himself and the friends and family he once had and made over the year's are just gone at this point in life he had to bury in his entire life and has how long it took for him to come tarm with his very past choices and to just find himself as in peace and prosperity after some much his surrounding and then he just gained a wife longs the dark way and just now knowing that his son and his only son among his family is trying to become another hero like him that's just makes it's worse as he knows his child and as it's is something's father does not wants to put his son in that same horrifying position and that's he was in just many years ago and as Nicholas just wishes and just want's his son to be successful and to be happy Is it's that too wrong for a father to wish as that's for his own children and just why wouldn't they listen to him even now as that these children think that they right and as
They rather go outside and face those abomination's of creatures will do they'll do nothings but destroy just everything in their path and started again and then he know this very similar feelings and as that's particular factoid was deeply embedded and as just etched into his body, with scar after scar servings as a testament to the undeniable truth. It's was a lesson that as he's never going to forget one day as he'd tried to convey to his very son countless times but now But then just with little success as In the matters of fact just like all teenager's in this very age just with very delusions of grandeur, his words fell on deaf ears still now that it is just beyond his very understanding's of son thinking.
Stubborn damn brat till the end and just Yet it just did made Nicholas proud in his son determinations and just couldn't help but feel the very smattering of pride at how much his very only one son Jaune had come to resemble him over the years, despite his very wish that's it was otherwise concerning for the family's and then his very own wish for his safety as then he's just doesn't want his son to be a very things what his very family's have beens for more as then generation's by now And as oh how he wished his son might be a lord or something else entirely. "I get that dad and it's very dangerous business father but then asshouldn't you be proud of me your very son for wanting to help very humanity !? As To-To just put myself just in service of something greater like you or our very ancestry's just have done for generations by now did ! As just Why's can't you just let—!?" As then he was interrupted by his father "It's because of what I did because I did out of lack of options and it's was out of my free well and We all at the times just didn't have choices back then as I was training by my very grandfather as an safety precautions at the time as it's was then what's we all have struggles in the process and survival for us all at the time and our actions was depending upon it to do for our very family survival very has much dependent upon that's why I know better's than you jaune as it is not game's of heroes just like in the very story you or your sister read or watch now by now ! As It's is a very much differences kind of businesses as it's is just not like the very your fantasys now !!! You just really think become a huntsman will help others no son that is a fat lie and as I have seen as many more as before you going's down to this very line and they all have nearly the same results in the end and still then in the end as you Still pleading with me now it just as wouldn't just gettings yourself killed will he will able help or-or stop the Grimm !? You'll end up dying for nothing's, son !! ! In some godforsaken ditch in the middles of nowhere that's my forefather's has suffered over more than a centuries by now !" As his father told him as well then "As Not if you train me !" As then jaune as firing back again toward's his very father as he's just alway's trys to pleading with him to just train him just like him as to be just as huntsman but still then as he's just kept on reusings him for Many year's by now as but just what I have to do to just prove myself' As Jaune thoughts 'This boy, I swear.... just stop ' Like father, like son.
As the fire burned in the eye's of all Arcs—a flame of ambition that's just have been passed down as from generation from generation by now and just as that's drove them all to achieve greater height's beyond as that's of ordinary men can just achieve in the end but
then it even brought manys has to there very death's in the end as It was why their family was so renowned in Remnant, and famous for producing a long line of powerful warriors and there very kings that stretched back through as the ages of there's world very history and then the very knight order and organisation they all build just together over the year's now has Even if their's very fame had just diminished over as the very decades and as purposefully, on their's very part but that just didn't matter in the end as we'll it to Nicholas nothing was more terrifying than seeing his children very grave Infront of him that same flame as reflected so vividly in his son and then in the end like all flames
it needed to be instinguished before it just consumed everything in its his very path "I won't train you, Jaune ! AS End of discussion !" If only that were just true as well They'd both been just engaged in this very same arguments, this same disagreement, for what felt like year's as Oh sure, there'd be day's—month's and as even of peace between the two no vitriol exchanged, no tempers flared. Just it was serenity and love now.
But the very conflict alway's returned, as lurking like a leviathan beneath the wave's. This occasions was no different just save for Nicholas's very much voice has raised against his very son as He's just always never understands about his situations that he is getting his hands dirty in as it's just not a normal job or duty It's is something's more It's not a game It's a burden that's they all just must carry at one point has his son had a choice to change different paths as he's can choose something's different on this much a cursed path and then His son doesn't the very first thing about being a hero at all as He thinks becoming a huntsman makes him a hero but no as just beings an huntsman or just beings a hero are two different things entirely and he doesn't knows the difference between Now, as that's was a recent development as that still made him very inmature and as He is not already to take him a family true name and as it's very weapon and training's and He's still doesn't understands at all "Wha—you can't just deny me like that ! I just have every right to make my own choices ! I wanted to be a huntsman just like my ancestor's and heroe's before then It's my damn life!" It's was just a childish rebuttal and under normal circumstance's, ' That boy is still an idiot now and still doesn't understand that his family will never just been huntsman they we're warrior's and Knight's and they have been heroes for their actions as They have done for everyone's sake time to protect their very families huntsman's as they're we're not has they all just hate what huntsman we're just hypocrites playing heroes I am the only one in the whole family as who's been a hunterman both would've recognized has that's Just because you control your life doesn't has necessarily make it yours as After all, and why would people just protect other's if they placed no value on a separate soul ? Why would they keep themselves safe as if not to ease the worry that a loved one felts on theirs very behalf ? As the very choices one makes in life are just ultimately made by the individual, of courses. But the influences that's shape thoses choices are just often driven in thought by other's Or just because of them alone but as Jaune knew this well, and even as if he'd conveniently forgotten now it's in the heat of the very moments that's make us what's we need to be better now. "I said this discussions is over ! As Neither side was yielding to the very others side a formidable wall, with armed sentries stationed every fifty feet, just had been erected betweens the two, and theirs respective opinions irreconcilable. Ah, the very intense as anger that arises from profound familial love as How vexing that very anger can be when it overrides all common sense between two bullheaded men as then very has Reduced to quick stammers and grunt's, as face near steaming, Jaune turned on his heels and stormed out of the very living room toward the front door and right now He just needed space has they both need some air between them has just But mostly space because at that moment as he couldn't bear to look at his very father any longer. And then As What's the hell was he thinking's ? To deny him something's as he dreamed of since he was barely out of diapers—something his father himself had done for year's And for what ? As It's a costly role, sure, but as shouldn't the fact's that Jaune would be helping people's be enough to sway his opinion ? Evidently not for Nicholas, as who threw his arms up in defeat as he watched his son slam the door on his way out as A powerful grimaces adorned him as he's placed a hand over the bridge of his nose—a futile attempt to soothe his anger Something's he found out immediately as deciding to give up and just walk over to the sofa beside him as searching for any scrap of comfort left in the house and as then sitting down on the sofa and let out a sight and That...… was exhausting as what's is he going to do about his son.
"Well you just certainly handled it well."As then voice from behind and has prompted Nicholas to look over his shoulder and as spying a beautiful blonde woman just with sapphire-blue eye's, and just as dressed in a modest white t-shirt and just normal blue Jean's and then a white scarf around her head covering it as she looked and as asked her husband about the situation He's sighed. "Just How much did you hear now ?" As he asked her and as she's just looked at him has for a moments "just Enough," As that was just the very as much of a response he needs to know what was just coming next But then before a pair of arms was then on his very shoulders as it's was just as showing him comfort and then support has the very slender figure sitting beside him Nicholas just knows about his wife As he was one of the most fortunate man in the whole world that's he was having a wife that's who cared so deeply for him and their's very children who's was still willing to put up with his more….... ostentatious traits. She's was such a blessing as Juniper—a true saint in described by many as who have met the very woman and just still doing as everything to just calm her very husband after that's tiring calamity just now. "just….... Haven't seen you get that heated in years now Nicky.. As I was just then started to think a you might as just was... very start to just swinging at our little baby." Sarcasm..... laced her tone and a little just concerned about her husband and..... her son at some point as Juniper had no doubt that's Nicky would never harm theirs son but now as he just won't listen anymore to her or just to his very father as she's might just given her son a little beating as then a warming to him has she's just hates the very idea about it but child can be unreasonable at time's but as then again the very the underlying as the very messages was clear and He'd allowed his emotion's has to get the better of him—of both of them but then Instead of a civil conversations between father and son, as the whole thing devolved into a rage-fueled sparring match one that should not have occurred even under as the very much worst of circumstances as she thought and then as she's just looked her very husband " so...…... Then Another's swing-and-a-miss for the books, eh, Nicky ?" As she asked him with a smile on her face as then her very husband started to look at her as then he let out sight and spoke "It's just that's boy just … infuriated him to just no end ! Why's couldn't Jaune...Just see the very dangers of treading this path and... As Then the very responsibilities in this very path and the very sacrifice it would entail ?" As he told her and she's just listen to him "You know about this very path and a just as how many have just died by now and what we had to do to get here....….I'd never went our son go down to this path and suffer now… but then It's just… Jaune is… is so—" As then he was interrupted by her now " let me guess Stubborn ? Dumb And as Unwilling to listen to reason's at times and then try to do something's very very stupid ?" Juniper offered her very opinions to her very husband and as then she's just started to stared toward him with just single eyebrows arched just now
"Yes!"
Just then a single eyebrow straight started arched as the conversations fell silent as Why was she's looking at him like that ? As he started to think about it and as he looked at his very wife as she's was looking at him as he just might understand as guessed about it's by now.

As then he just then started to realised after a little bit later that what's she just might now and then he's just started just groaned has right in the very realise of it as and then just As much as Nicholas hated to admit it himself now, and that's his very son Jaune was the spitting image of him and his very father and his very uncle and when there were in there very much in his younger years: brash, impulsive, as yet beating with a heart of gold and just an unyieldingly desires to help others... Just like him in every way…Dammit, all just as why couldn't he's have grown up like his very own sister like Saphron or Jade ? At this very point but At least they're were willing to take on safe job and a yet meaningful jobs without worrying the living crap out of them every day till now and just then What was so wrongs with that's ? As then why couldn't Jaune just understand the very situation that as he just digging himself into now ?' As he's thought and then he's was Leaning back into the cushion's, he stared up at the ceiling of his home, taking in its bland features as he closed his eye's. "What am I going to do with him,..... June ? He just won't listen to me anymore and then I am tired." As he's told her as then she's just started to think about the very solutions of this for his very own matters "Maybe it's not just about listening " As then she started to think "Maybe he needs to experience it for himself for him to really just understands us all....." As then it is the only reason and way left for then and that he should learn from it now. As she just thought and then ' wait Experience ? Just Wait a minute was As she really considering allowing him to go out and become a huntsman ? Where was the his very wifely support!? "Wha—wait,.... you want him to become a huntsman ?" as he's asked her worrying as why and what she's of all the People would she just consider something like this just Juniper couldn't help but roll her back eyes at the very misguided assumption but then he's is right maybe it's just "No, of course not...., but just what I mean is to just take him out on one of your missions in the next few week's and as then let others around there's to explain him his... roles and responsible and... just Let him get a feel for what it's means to be a real huntsman and then tell him the.... difference just as between hero mean as well as just show him as the very danger and very responsibility that's still well comes with fighting off Grimm's and.... his people's defence in the very matter." As she's just started to ran her fingers through his hair now as then she started to massaging his very scalp. "As Let him see what a huntsman is.... Maybe then he'll get the messages." As she's then just explained to her very husband. But A single finger was raised as he just set about to protest, but the words caught in his throat as the very idea beginning to take hold and just then he started to understand what she might and that's just might be one of the few little options are left Huh....
actually that..….. wasn't actually a bad idea. He could keep an eye on Jaune as while showing that being a guardian of humanity wasn't a goal to be taken lightly, and that's he is the future lord of his region and house name that he will have to inherit one day and as that it required significant sacrifice from anyone who just as walked the paths. And At the very least, just as it'd be more effective at getting the message across as just compared to theirs usual pissing contest's And then what his is telling him A hell of a lot more effective, as but still he's has his doubt about matter has Nicholas just paused at the thought unable to fully embraced it
As just then A small part of him hesitated since it's be purposefully placing his only son on a direct path has fraught with danger as for Killing Grimm's was no joke even for the most veteran of hunters. But then at that moments, the very benefits we're just speaking more loudly just had than the risks, and just especially if it would bring an end to all this very crusade Maybe he just could get a group-necessitated missions to just brings Jaune along and as then a bit more to added protection as for the stubborn brat. And After all, the more, the merrier—and the very less as he'd have to worry with others just monitoring him Hmm and This could actually work if he approached it right way now by then how will as he talk with his very son about it.

Wait a moments what did she said just about just now that was about being a "man-child"? But he just kept that to himself as for now... Probably a best idea not to get into another's losing battle just after having lost one five minutes ago now. As His very pride wouldn't allowed it and he just could only take so much in one day anyways but then again "It's.… really a good idea, June but it ....Great, actually. But you know this could backfire on us, right....?" She's looked away, eyes somber. "…..I know... But I'm not seeing any other options at the moment.....We've tried everything, and Jaune's still just so.....… adamant. I mean, for God's sake....I even saw him asking my very.... friend tera for very swordplay instruction's yesterday." As she told him as he was just more concerned about the Matter "Wha—just really!?" Jaune actually tried to ask her for training him just as of all the.....people in the region ?... The decrepit woman must've torn his very son a new hole for having the ball's to ask.. that's from her of all the people's As he just thought about it "Well then no one else is willing after..... I take to everyone in the region " As she told him as he knows the truth 'threatened them all was the proper word.....' As he thought as he's remembers a dark times when she was a Huntress in duty and the many things that she have done as she saved many people but as she even kill the many people process as we'll she's just had liberated many regions alone and she was what we call a true executioner of human and ..monsters a like and the very things she just had done in the very process as it's still sent Shiva down his spine and As
he thought about it and still wonder to his day as just how a woman has beautiful as Juniper could turn the entire room ice cold with a singles glare was beyond him and but then again what's can he expect from her she's was the in her youth to was killing dragon's and others kind of Grimm's that sent nightmares to others and she's was killing them by herself with her weapon alone and as then was something as Nicholas would never comprehend as she was a Arc herself and she was his cousin to begin with and his family's did have many warrior in there's very ranks now and then now.
"So then he's still breathing at anything at this point." As she said to her husband and it was one thing's he learned never p**** her off in any situation at all and it just well no wonder the Kingdom and as the council went her far away from there very domain as possible and if possible the Kingdom as possible if they're just went to live long enough. An audible sigh escaped as the man has he slumped his head into his hands has wondering and what in God's name was his son was thinking. "I assume tera said..... Yes to him ?" As he's asked his wife... "What do you think ?" As juniper told him as That just sentence alone revealed everything about the old veteran huntness personality as but as
Just How someone's as dangerous and as skilled as tera could ever be a miracle huntsnss was as beyond him Still, a part of him was relieved that's the she just had let Jaune down….....gently then anyone else just alone and he just remembers the bar incident and still as she have the fire to put down just six elites soldiers and hunter down with a pancel alone, At least his son was just running out of options if he's was desperate enough to seek her out and Tera know better to harm or threatened him but then she's just was in the past a acquaintance's with his and with juniper team now. "Look, honey, I know this isn't ideal... But Believe me, I don't want him ending up a huntsman either.... But then still I can't stand to see you two go at each other every other month...." then an darkened light flickered in her very eye's "So, rather than push him away and as maybe just give him a glimpses of what's behinds
the great door. Hopefully, it'll be enough to dissuaded him from everything he imagine it to be end." As she told him. "And if it doesn't ?.... As It truly was a solid plan, but as it was carried the risk of pushing Jaune... deeper into his very passion and do something's else to as The boy was still a child when it's came to these sorts of things and just having not never witnessed or experienced has any of the very hardships that's just practically all hunter as had to endure in the end now.
He was still young—brash, petulant, and naïve.... So, so naïve.- " As he's was interrupted now "Then we'll cross that bridge when we get to it." and then Silence was all that met then the response As A frown was as starting to formed on Nicholas's brow as he agonized over the details, searching for any alternatives that's just might proved more effectively than just Juniper's proposal and then very Unsurprisingly, as he couldn't find anything that's they hadn't already tried and then As much as he would've preferred otherwise, has this seemed to be the only option left. of course as it was. Because it was either this or as just tying him to clean his very bed for all eternity. Yeah, no.....He could do without that And just Juniper, ever observant, noticed his acceptances as a coy grin forming from ear to ear as Nicholas sighed, resigning to as the very idea and "Looks like you've finally made up your very mind. As just Good! Glad to see as you finally acting smart for a change." She's planted an affectionately kiss on his cheek before heading to the kitchen. "We just can talk more about the details with Jaune later." All he could do was stare at her before just breaking into a hearty chuckle Just couldn't help herself, just could she's ? "Ahh,.... you just had to kick me while I'm down, didn't you ?" As he's told him and then she just turn around toward's him " I am serious and as then It's what you signed up for, sweetie~. As when you married me and made children with me and then as when did as I just ever give the impression that's marrying me would be easy, hmm ? You've only yourself to blame...." As Oh, she was blaming him now, was she ?... Stubborn, just lovable angel and as it one of the few freaky ....thing's love about her. "Alright, alright, I understand No need to bust my balls." His hand's just raised in surrender, huffing. "I'd best go and has find where our illustrious son has run off to and just Tell him the good news and all." As he told her before getting up in heading just as towards the door "Not so fast.... May want to give him some time before you do that's As just as let him cool off before you talk as I get the feeling that's if you two we're to hit it off again, as there's won't be much left of Arcade arch to call home". A coy grin just spread, etching across her as the words left her lips. As She's certainly as wasn't above teasing her very husband to keep his temper (and ego) in check from now on has the very unknown consequences the next times now.
'Alright, now I know she's screwing with me,' he just chuckled thoughtfully and has truly what's can he do without her And as the worst part ? She's was right.
Jaune was boiling over like a hot kettle, and Nicholas needed him calm and collected before broaching this again. Or, at least as calm and collected as his Jaune just could be which usually wasn't very much As Still, he got the message. Let Jaune breathe the cool night air for a bit before they got back in the ring and He just hoped that this idea would work out in the end..… and doesn't want his son end up like him... in the very end it's was only because of his wife and his children and his very people that just kept him alive and sane and brought him back to this state and very happy till now and as he just wants his son to be happy like him and to find love and settling down and have children of his own and went him and his very lovely wife to meet his grandchildren and as in the very process just then as just very governing the very much region's like a very proper lord and like his very ancestors before him and just he hopes one day that his very son will try to or as well understands the very reason behinds as his very over protective nature and just where he's is coming from now then as he looked at the night sky from his window one last time and he pray that his son comes home safe and they both and take like family's again but he understands his son intentions but the path he was taking was the wrong one to go achieved what's he needs to do and he knows that's with experience and his very much mistakes and very poor choices in life and the people who just maturelated him into now.
ARCH GREEN FOREST
MIDNIGHT
POV
"WHISKERS !!!"
Well, that just certainly summarized Jaune's mood at the moment. And Seems his little jaunt into the night hadn't calmed him down quite as quickly as one just might've imagined just Who's would've thoughts ? As He's just stared down at the grassy soil below, as his hands buried in his pockets and his very mind was a chaotic mess, and as walking mindlessly toward and just whatever pastures accepted him first and wasn't helping and as he just wasn't even paying attentions to where he was going, as much less caring about his surroundings as Jaune just wanted—needed—some distance between him and as his old man and just as Lord know's he'd just endured enough of his asinine excuses for one day. "Am I just not good.... enough ? Is…. is it because I'm weak compared to him.… or the other come before him ?" just as Dammit, he's wasn't any good at reading between the lines. His father had always said that being a huntsman was a dangerous role, one filled with little honor and pride, but has just abundant in honest work and respect and as then he just wanted to be a hero like his father and as like his ancestors and to help the world and then just So why would he refuse to train him ? And.... as If it's was just so worthy, why'd he just prevent him from enrolling in places like Signal or Sanctums if it could address his weaknesses ? He could be strong—if only as he were given the very chance to prove himself to be like his family members Ah,...Just stupid goddamn parent's !
Always believing they knew better than him as what's he just constantly telling Jaune that's he should pay more attention to their advice and is very studies and just that's as he's should be concerning himself with huntsman duties or it's responsibilities but then again just even now as there still are reject him and has just preventing him from the coming a hero Well, how just about they listen to him for a change ? Was that such a novel idea !? Was it really so difficult to even try !? And Was there's just any kind of differences between a huntsman and a hero !? As to begin with in his very images as they both are the same thing to begin with and as then his very family have been huntsman for generations by now and they have kill many monster.

A cold gale brushed against Jaune's very face halting to peer up at the very dark night sky above his head as he stared toward the very shattered moon glowed with an eerie light towards him as he had many things to see and have imagining his very adventurous with his friends and help save and protect many people as then started something's new in the process and just maybe bring a charge to society in a different ways as he went to be honest like his grandparents or his very own ancestors bring a new order and just as creating something a new system like the kingdom they made in the past and build a better society for everyone and it was just a start for something as jaune arc was just standings here as if it we're gazing back at the young boy and his very eye's just glowing with blue Staring toward's the very darkness arounds him and then his very eye's just adjusted to the very darkness, that just illuminating the very surrounding around him now as they just appeared increasingly vibrant, enhanced by the very faint light that Remnant's moon reflected. He stood at the edge of a dense forests, foliage and bark littering the landscapes arounds him as they swayed in the wind as there was one word he could say to just described everything's just...…Beautiful..... As it was just one word for it as Ansel was part of Arcade region and it's is on of the most beautiful and secured region as in the kingdom and as it has it's own military power and it own lord and it was little more than just very old semi-retirement home for hunters and as soldier's of past and present and it's very fortress of walls make it the most in possible places to invade as from soldiers from Grimm's alike and as then the very bandits have tried crossing and just as even destroying the wall but then they all disappeared one day when military and his mother found out and as then she just talked with the bandits as the local know something's about it as but they don't tell anyone about this at all as even the guards and maids keep quiet about it As it has it has acres of land around it as well and it was told that this very land is old and as it's has belongs to the very Arc household for a long time by since the kingdoms was established or it just even old then that now and as he just doesn't know about it as he was just in his room as just doing his usual reading his comic book at the time when history class was in session in school few months ago times but and then his father always told him to just pay attention to his very school and as his very studies more often as they're say he might need it's one day now, and jaune just don't see the very use of it in the end of he is goings to be a huntsman in the end and then. As It's was ringed by thick vegetations and situated right on the edge of Vale's influence Its quiet and peaceful traits lulled in the breeze, and has Jaune absorbingly the sounds of rustling leaves and the occasionally cicadas drumming in the distance—
As hallmark of a very much backwater town that's just bore no resemblance to the chaotic metropolises like the capital at all and as the very region belongs to his family for generation's and as jaune just still doesn't understand why he has to govern it and not just be a hero like his ancestors in the past now as has It's still had it's usual outside traffic mostly from the as then they're have branch office nestled in the town center, but its arcadian stillness never truly left as It was.....… serene—tranquil, even And now as just what Jaune needed and It was strange how the subtle movement of insects or has the gentle crackling of leaves could help calm as his racing thoughts and he just did loved Ansel—with all his heart As he's just then cherished the very people's here, valued as the friendships he'd formed as Rooted in this modest company he adored the family that raised him and the life he'd built there's with them and It meant everything's to him and All the more reason to become a hero right ? To just become someone's capable of protecting this very little town as that had given him so much Jaune drew in a deep breath and then started to remembers has what's his father was saying to him and just understand what he was trying to say to him Ahh…man…. I shouldn't have snapped at dad like that. He… he's only does what he does because he loves me not because as he thinks otherwise.' As he did as Jaune started to just feel bad what he just did and That he did as Jaune just would Always stand by his very beliefs and... just as his very father taught him But.… admittedly, he still had a long way to go before he could properly portray them and the very teenager, after all was clumsy at time and as then Anger sometimes came too easily for him as He just sighed. "Ah, dammit. I left my scroll at home...… I should head back." This was one apology Jaune was not looking forward to but knew he needed to be said. Turning away from the forest, he began his very way back home as it is midnight anyway If only he ever got the chance to do so and the very moment he turned, something sharp pierced his very chest, a squelching sound emanating from below his ears. Ae Shock and surprised soon enveloped as Jaune as his body felt a sudden heat scythe through him. It wasn't until a few seconds after as he just started process now and as he lowered his head that he finally realized what had happened just now. 'What's…?' As just Four large and blood-soaked claws protruded from his very torso, as embeddings themselves deeply in his very own back as they just stretched through his very chest as then few seconds later Pain shot through him, but just no sound was made from the agony; the sheer absurdity of it all halted his voice, his scream lodged in his very throat at the moments now as he just went silent now.
He just stunned as went complete silent has the very grave ne t to him as he realized something as he was in the graveyard of his region as it did touch the very forest edge and then he was just Stabbed…...here he was stabbed.... By someone or something as what is this a horror movie now by just… now oh God, he's was fucking stabbed ! As Blood pooled out of his very mouth at the very horrifying realization an unrelenting torrent of his life essences draining from as where the claws had pierced his very flesh as the very hot... just as then very searing pain as that.. had consumed him soon faded into numbness,.. his very consciousness slipping away along with his very heart and lungs just now as There was just no way just now or ..either was still intact.. Jaune just felt no strength returning as the claws slowly retracted, his legs giving out as.. he was only still standing from the beast's hand, as that just supporting him As then He's collapsed face-first onto the ground below, a silent rustle of grass sounding his fall as The scent of blood and soil filled his nose as he lay there, dying on the very cold earth beaten him and His only solace being that he no longer felt any kind.. of pain anymore Huh… So this is how it ends for him: no glorious battle cry, no vanquishes enemy before.. him, no lover to weep his name as he's departs from this world just Nothing Just the very shattered moon just hovered above, as it's just imagined gazed fixed unwaveringly on the young blonde who'd been alive and healthy only moments ago as How pathetic was that now ? As he thought he was thinking about some things big but looks at him now a broken boy and just dying on the ground next to a unknown grave as now that was unexpected.....'…I…I'm…'Jaune very eyes soon lost their luster as his body sank into complete relaxation the azure light coating his very visage now.
He didn't know how death would feel, but surprisingly, it just felt.....… very warm as Like huddling around a gentle fire. Maybe it was just the residual heat of his very blood radiating from his chest. As Maybe it was a hallucination, a distortions of reality brought on by the very overwhelming shock Or maybe he just was going to finally meeting God for the very first time or in other words the last time and as Wouldn't that's be something now ? Maybe it was all of these very thing maybe it was none of them now.... What did it matter now ? All Jaune felt—all he knew—was that dying..… didn't feel all that bad at all now as now he's was just getting sleepy as he was going to sleep just now as it was then slowly and Stanley he started to sleep as it was no worried all of him he is a motions and his very motivations all just gone for instant now as he was at peace now as then the very light slowly faded aways from his eyes as there's was nothing but silence now.

" Ah just Again I am having that strange dream again when will I stop havings them by now " As the knight thought as the old memory floating back into his mind as it was one of his most important moments in life as he did died at the very exact situations but someone saved him and he still didn't know who's was it as the next thing he remembers he was in a hospital but he was in Arcadia and he was put here by his parents as they might have have out about him and reacted just towards the incident and then what might his sister's just do in this situation then as he wonders to himself and then he started to get up from the bed as it's was comfortable but then he's was still in the hospital and he was receiving good treatment as it was miracle as just yet how many people are suffering right now and just sitting here or not receiving the same treatments like him as he thought as then door opened up and it was then a nurse come into view as she saw him and then immediately called for the others stuff members now and then ten minute's later one doctor and three others nurses come into view and started to check on his condition and his viral signs as jaune then where's is he and how long it has been as then the doctor just started to explain to him his entire situation's as just how did he get in time for his surgery and as how they prayer that he should survive this treatment in time as in the end luck was on their very side as the managed to save him and everyone's we're relieved by his very own recovery and his parents and grandparents just came here few times after the surgery and as his very recovery process as jaune was in conscious to meet them but the very doctor told him that he should rest for now and then he will go inform his parents that he is wake and he has recovered from his experience as then the doctor left with the nurse and as leaving one behind to look after him as jaune was just sitting there and trying to process everything's that is transpired in his life till now as he's grabbed his blanket tightly as it was very much frustrating as he was out for just a few moments and this happened with him as how will he went convince his family now they have all the reason to lock him up in there home now and forever ' AHH I hate my life's As he thought as jaune just was looking around his surroundings in defeat as his family have won and he had lost as he slowly and steady want to sleep as well that how he spent his next month in the hospital as well they're are fussing him to leave and it was his parents and sisters idea to make sure that as time goes by as he was still here as he's just had fully recovered by now and still making him stay for some reason unknown to him as then one day and he's has been there for a week by now and as just then he just received a letter a from the head of the very hospitals director as he's was asking about his health and then and motivation to become an hunssman as that was weird at first as then when he was going to answer as he stopped him right there and as told him to come to his office immediately and answer him and as then he started to finally leave the room ' finally freedom !' As he was walking down in the hall way of the hospital as everyone's else like doctors and from nurses greated as bow towards him as jaune still couldn't understand why they keep on doing that towards him it's strange as he continued down until he met a guard in the very entrance of the hall way as he's saw him and then he started to approaching him as he's saluted to him as told jaune to follow him as jaune didn't complain and followed behind the guard and like doctor's and from nurses greated as bow towards increased with some of the patients as well and he lead him to his private office before so saluting him and then standing guard in front of the door as jaune enter in the office now as.
At that's moment Jaune Arc just know he was in very biggest trouble and very Serious trouble as in fact He was probably going to jail… or maybe worse... Home, deceit ? Other allegations he's didn't know the name of, but was sure existed? Once again Lady Luck had taken one good look at Jaune Arc, and thrown up all over him again first Grimm and then this as It's had all seemed like such a fantasticas idea at first too but the Academy was the premier school for hunters the best of the best went there, and those that graduated went on to be successful and famous hunters and as then became heroes. As He'd always wanted to become a hero, like his family ancestral line before him but like most children as he whittled away his younger years dreaming and playing, only to find that's he wasn't fit enough to enter Signal or another Academy And now, because he's didn't have the training from signal – he wasn't skilled enough to enter Beacon. It was such an unfair conspiracy ! It wasn't that's he wasn't intelligent or hard-working. As He was willing to train for hours if need be….. the problem was that's he had started too late in his life Deciding he wanted to become a hunter at the age of twelve that's had left around six months for him to train for the Signal entrance exams now Of course he hadn't been fit enough...…or allowed by his very family or even with a gruelling regime what could be achieved in just six months now !? He hadn't given up though, he'd just trained hard, studied even harder But there was no real substitute for four years intense training at a combat school, and it showed As When it had come to the time to send his credentials in for the Beacon admission he hadn't even hesitated as jaune just made a deal with someone else and To cheat his very way in the school and nowhis grandmother and his very grandfather sat in the room Infront of him has with the head doctor if the hospital here and.. Oh he'd learned his lessons from Signal alright, better to seek forgiveness than ask permission, there's was no way he would get into Beacon without a formal education in combat so he'd saved up some money and sought out the aid of a… wella less than reputable individual, who was skilled in forgery. And Gods and it had been expensive too ! As that was all of his allowance in that and the very document's we're made brilliant though, painting a believable and impressive history that was enough to make him stand out, but not to much. He'd even tested it at a Bank as well and been able to open an account using it so he just knew it was good to use it for his job But as then how did his grandparents just found out about it he made sure to hide it himself and it was a good place to begin with as he's thought now.
As he walking purposefully down towards the blonde figure waiting for him as two of the people who jaune actually recognises a while other one was a new and might be the head doctor of the hospital as she's was a woman of indiscernible age, with blonde hair and a stern expression that's screamed disciplinarian. One arm was held at her side, pinning a number of books to her hip, while her other hand held what's appeared to be a pen as she was beautiful for her age and she's was sitting in the middle end of the room as with two another chair Infront of her desk facing her as then it was then everyone in the room just faced toward him now "I'm sorry, did I keep you all waiting ?" As Jaune greeted in as calm a voice as he could making sure to keep his eyes fixed on her silver orbs eyes as he held a single hand out in greeting. Internally his mind was screaming at him to run, but he stuck to the confident and self-assured persona of his very secrets plan to escape when everything is done and his very forged records insuggested he had and as Time to go down fighting! As then the very woman nodded back once, reaching forwards to shake his very hand briefly still keeping the pen in her hand as his grandparents just sat there in silence as obviously observing everything between them She's didn't smile at him, but her silver eyes didn't show any anger either – As just which was probably a good sign. "Indeed, thank you for coming Mr Arc. I am Victoria summers as Head doctor of this facility and director and as I am a old acquaintance of your family now and please take a seat" As she's got up and then she's now towards him a bit and pointed him towards the chair in the middle of the chair as it's was a small one like an stual as he's slowly nodded towards her and then sat down upon it as he did then a hand hit his back as he just jolt a bit as he looked to his left and it was his grandfather as he was started to rub his back as he was happy and relieved that's he's was ok and his grandmother was smiling at the sites between them but then she towards her and nodded " Yes Mr Arc I hope summons was not too sudden." As she told him and started to adjust herself on her chair.
"Of course not, I was happy to have a chances to see grandparents in person one again and walk around a bit outside of room for once." Jaune replied easily as he offered the woman a smile. As He had to resist the urge to let it die an ugly death when she's stared back at him simply quirking an eyebrow. "Oh. Yes Mr Arc." As jaune just kept on smilings back at her as the two eldest parents just signed at that as the very woman accepted with a slightly surprised expression before she could hide it as Apart from a large desk and a few bookcases, and the room was rather bare. As He had honestly imagined something's more from a woman as powerful, and no doubt wealth as he did heard the rumour that she was huntress in medical department and she was one of the best around after his mother friend and neighbour But just perhaps this was just to create an image as the very person personal quarters could be lavish compared to his office now A then an hysterical part of Jaune's mind just commented that Victoria as seemed quite similar in design to his own mother or grandmother in away "Well then Mr Arc as thank you for coming to this meeting." Jaune nodded but didn't say anything. This woman was definitely far above himself in terms of experience and knowledge, and Jaune knew about dealing with people like that, if you didn't know the correct responses – As then stay quiet as right now he was not alone at the moment as his grandparent are in the same room and they both are more silent then before " I have heard and as then received your application for entrance as a student of Beacon Academy, and have had sometime on me to look over your past from private and medical records till now and some things we're confined by your very grandparents till now" Once more she's paused here as she fished out some pieces of paper from a drawer in her desk and then taking another long drink from a coffee mug as he was noticing that's was now Jaune schooled his expressions into a calm facade, despite the frantic hammering of his very heart in his chests.
"Quite the glowing recommendation's you come with Mr Arc as you try to Train for four year's at the Vacuo Academy and before you gotten rejected by the very principles and then you trying to inapply in the others academies now and you where rejected by them and then you tried to inapply in the last academy now and that is beacon now" As she wanted confirmed this an then "That's right." Jaune told her trusting the forged documents with all his heart that have not found out.
' jaune this is for the best you should realise just how much trouble you may receive and still you are ready to face the very consequences then I said good luck' As his grandfather thought and his wife agreed with him as both of them silently observed his interview as well this might effect is future and as It's had been an important move to have him one years older than he was so that's he could fit in as the very various hunter academies kept in close contacts and so it would be clearly obvious if he claimed to be from one and they checked the records against their database but as All except for one school….... And a certain headmaster in charge of it since it had been Ozpin as headmaster of the academy jaune will be safe but as they needed to confirm something about some situations before it.
"I've heard you have survived an attack from the very Grimm and it put you in a very horrifying state and as that your parents had to inmet you here immediately and now you have completely recovered and in most cases there's… most did not continue their career as Hunters in the future." As she asked him as then Arc answer for a moment later "I can understand why's. It took me over one month to recover from that as I am hoping you will not let my injury and experience work against me in this regard." That's had been one of his very family concerns, that they all would and have by now refuse him because his safety and records track now said as he was just above the usual starting age now "Of course not Mr Arc." the woman replied back with a small smile. "Four years is not so much time in the grand scheme of things, and it would be a shame to see such talented individual wasted But in truth my concern is quite the opposites in fact Mr Arc." At this he pushed across some of the paper's to Jaune and showing him statistics he had long since memorised. As Valedictorian, skilled fighter and excellent tactical skills and a strong grasp of theory. A team leader with unparalleled empathy for his team, able to motivate people to work as cohesive groups, even in the worst of situations. His records even claimed he had a few missions under his belt. Some taken during his time in field other's during the year break afterwards now.
This was his falsified transfer paper's to beacon that he bought one week age by someone who knows as about this process and he's just had one of his sister bought here as described as a new comics book and she didn't like to even check it but that did work in his way "If I may be frank Mr Arc." The woman spoke, as a grin formed on her features as Meanwhile Jaune's spirits fell in sudden terror. "I think you're too qualified to be a professional in my opinion and even with your very transfer papers here infront of me just right now"
' Huh !! '
As she started to sit right on her chair "Mr Arc let's do ourselves a favour and stop beating the bush around as let's be frank for the moment as You have the skills and credentials to be a great hunter but you decided to cheat by just foraging an very fake transfer papers to the school of hunters are you ok Mr Arc why would you do something so reckless and yes so dangerous at the same time as you might even get hurt or worse case scenario death or something's even worse than that's he might even be murdered by others students did you might not have ever occurred that situation" As she lay it down as jaune arc was speechless but he did expected this in a way but not this and he's did not think of that far ahead as he looked around as his grandparents had a motionless face as he's couldn't tell them angry or proud anything other as they're just still stering at him with that expression on her face as it was getting a bit creepy as he collector himself and calmly just towards her " the truth is I want to become a hunter since I was young and as I always would ask my parents to train me as time want on and the great stories i heard about my family and line of heroes and i knew what i want to and i wanted to be like them and then help people and most of all I want to be a part of my family line of heroes and make a difference in life"
Jaune stood as proudly and determinedly as any 16 years old could before his parents as his grandfather looked up with eyes as that's had never lost the killing edge of war and lost so manys families and friends in this conflicts as he's doesn't care about certain things but his son refusyes to train his only grandson and he just one day suddenly got attacked by a very Grimm's in there's very home and regions no less as they very defences have been breached as he did order a quad of soldiers to investigated the incident when deal with it as he was attending other meetings and schedules around it as "No it didn't matter what your true goal is Mr Arc.... even its noble one" As she's told him as he was getting furious a bit as jaune just stood straighter. "That's unfair !!! I'm serious to huntsman !" As then he was interrupted by slam on the table by his very own grandmother ' as he jolted bit by surprised " jaune be civilized " As she warned him as he was afraid a bit by it as Victoria kept her composer as her very eyes just stayed on the page. "But You say that every time but It weakens your argument against me." As she's told him as it just makes him more angry towards her and then he burst open towards her "You and everyone's else just don't ever believe in me!" As he started and then " Mr Arc...The weak should not question as the strong has I have seen war, I have death i have seen people I have did trusted with my life betrayed me as I have seen true horror beyond those walls of our and you are not ready to face them " she removed himself from the paper to stare deep into jaune eyes as it did send a shiver down his spina now as she's was not as unblinking as just deep enough to just see something very few could. "As You don't have it in you to kill, and you likely never will." As she's told him "I wanna help people! I-" as he was interrupted "-wish to become a Hero," She's just interrupted with ready disdain as He grimaced. "Have I not told you what we have given up just so that we all may live a peaceful life again ? As it brought sacrifices and now You wish to throw away 3 generations of work and struggle that just so you may charge headlong into a conflict you'd much as much don't know about and just so you can just sooner die pointlessly in than contribute to for life that matters." As Jaune hanged his head and turned aways as this was to much for him as then his very grandmother as continued the very conversation " jaune did you just considered as What would we think if we heard of our very only grandson had died out of sheer arrogance? What's would any of our family members and friends as them think?" Jaune's fists tightened and his eyes watered "…I just wanna help people," he's whispered, sounding very small "You can just not.... By throwing away your life but helping everyone here By picking up a tool and helping us farm and then started to just learn about the region and it's people as you always have." As his grandmother told him with a soft smile and then He looked up, fists tight at his side and tears bearing down as He choked out a sob as the though in response or just ran away but he sat there as two of the women just smiled towords each others as well it was a success but jaune Grandfather sighed deeply, and just thought back, trying to figure out how it'd all turned out this way as his son always was against the idea but as the reality is the can't lose another one of there family members they have buried more then as they're could count by now and then losing jaune was something now they can't afford now and the thought of it just frightened him to his very core as he thought.
CHANGING LOCATION
TWO MONTHS LATER
POV
It has been two months as since jaune grandparents and his head doctor released him from the hospital as life continued forward like normal in a few days as his sister's doing there's things and his very family's was just working like usual as he continued to do his very own thing since then As short distance away as in the hillside as Jaune collapsed against a tree on a hill. It was testament to how often – and for how long – he came here that as he's could ease himself into a groove on the tree's side as the very beautiful day sky of southern vale, far enough from any city to let every star shine together, and poured soft light on his usual haunt as his very Face pressed tightly just against his knees, as he couldn't appreciate it like as he normally would whenever he came here. As Sometimes, it was just him and the sky, silent and unmovable And as the occasional distantly roars of blood-thirsty Grimm and in which was kind of the significant downside to living this far out from any city as He'd came here's after the worst day of his life, using the solitude as an excused to cry endlessly Maybe his very family just knew just where's he was and maybe they didn't then jaune just wanted alone to get aways, from them but as even he knew, amidst the gaping and gnawing void of anguish within himself that's this wasn't something you could run from and It's had been a pretty damn bad day, he thought in retrospect as Maybe that's all his life would ever be – a bad day, an empty smile, and just him and the very cloudy sky and no parents no friends and as just no stupid sister's as He did hated the selfishness that he had came with coming here, and because he knew without a single shred of doubt that everything he felt his sisters had felt. It wasn't just him; everyone had lost something every day He's had no right to act special as he's was denied to follow his very family's footsteps and now his sister and mother denied him to even leave the house or anywhere as they're were keeping a close eye on him and he hates it and then.
After the hospital all, as his grandfather kept trying to drill into his thick skull as he's wasn't special or some kind of a hero that the world needs Jaune Arc was a farmboy and next in line of regional lords and one of the highest importance in vale society system and it was frustrating to even think about it " There you are jaune I have being looking for you" As a voice called him out as he turn round and saw his grandfather as he was slowly walking towards him as even in the age 80 he was like he's in his fifties as the miracle being a Huntsman as he comes down right next to him and it was then he started to pay his head a bit " it's ok " As he told him " life has more to offer them this so might I ask why you wish to be a huntsman in the first of all?" As he asked him on private " it doesn't matter now as no one will ever take me seriously anyways" As jaune told him as he's still wanted to be one as his very own grandfather just " humm I see... So that's the reason now.... I can understand I was just like you but when I was young.... No one ever took me seriously but I did In the end...prove them all wrong " As he's told him as jaune listen to his grandfather " the reason is...I never wanted you to be a Huntsman I don't want you to get hurt by the way they deal with work as it's a dirty type of business as they are loss chances of the survival in it as no matter how many times you have trained over again and how skilled.... you in the end you will die by the beast or a sword in your back as it a difficult thing as only the toughest and strongest should do this as this is the ways of our world jaune..... Do you now just understand why we try to stop you" As he's explained to him calmly as they both faced each other just now.
As the boy nodded towards him as he's continued on with his explanation and lecture " As You will one day gains the skills and very confidences of credentials to be a hunter right now, so might I ask why you wish to be a student of beacon?" As he's asked him as jaune just looked towards him " because it is one of the very school that actually accepted me" As he told him and he finally understand something as his eyes widen up and then he looked towards the rising horizon and the very situation was peaceful as the wind below and as they both sat down enjoying each others company as the " I have spoken with the others and the elders and then later confirming from your grandmother that we will make you into a Huntsman " As he's told jaune as he then stopped and looked towards him shocked as he just blinked himself and trying to understand what dd he said was right and then " wait you mean it !!!!" As he just shouted at him " THANK YOU---- THANK YOUTHANK YOUTHANK YOUTHANK YOUTHANK YOUTHANK YOUTHANK YOUTHANK YOUTHANK YOUTHANK YOUTHANK YOUTHANK YOUTHANK YOU " As he kept telling him as he hugged him " yes yes but there is a catch to the situation and you have to follow it if you have to become a Huntsman " As he warned him as jaune then jaune couldn't help but feel a small thrill of panic shoot through him, as not out of fear that he would be rejected by them " There are as some conditions to be coming a Huntsman where we come from now and then it's been passed down from generations before Huntsman were even a thing and Jaune very we're Knight's of order or then phalden in service and we ruled our own lands as well and it will be difficult-" As he was interrupted by jaune " I will do it no matter how difficulty of the fact as I would try my best to prove himself to you all" As he's claimed just himself as his grandparents nodded towards him "ok then it's is a deal and you have to promise as you just won't just back down" As he's told him with a serious expression on his face " I promise on my family name I will not back down or back away " As he's is held his very is hand high towards his heart " good then as he need to prepare himself for the training I will give you and be on yourself ok" As he said and " yes sir " then ok let begin today training ok boy ...So Let start now."
" YES GRANDFATHER "

SIX MONTHS LATER
POV
This was it.. ....Jaune looked down at the very packed suitcase and just closed it shut, as his hands shaking nervously and as He'd prepared for this as then spent months saving up his allowance from what little work he was allowed to do and timing everything's down to the exact day. If he didn't leave now, and he'd lose his chance his chance forever. As or at least long enough that it'd be too late and a second shot was damn near Impossibles as He was just finally going to just leave his home and it very wall for the first time and this just might be his very last time as well and he's can finally start his journey to be hero as It's sounded so terrible and dramatic, and as maybe it was. He didn't hate his family as he never will but he did made a deal with his grandparents and that he needs to honour it as jaune will like his own ancestors as father and Mom and his very sisters did say do your very best as they could to take care of him, but...he just couldn't live like this. He was in a cage builded by his family and friends as he was A gilded one at that but a cage nonetheless. He's couldn't go out without one of his very sister hovering over his shoulder as even having his younger ones as which felt more than a little degrading and everything in life was decided for him as he's listened to his very grandparents as they provider him with a job and he did it till now and as provided him with the necessary skills to survive in the city's and hunter related things and some some we're not related towards the hunter way but ordinary life or how to leader and organise as something in the process of something as he still just doesn't understand one bit but then what his mother and father wanted from his job as when and where he could leaves the house, and as even the woman he'd marry and his very futures wasn't his own and Jaune understood why they did it but he still just resented it somewhat as which is why's he's had to leave and his very own positions and then He'd turned seventeen a three months ago and as that meant he was going to officially get married soon to someone and he's had made a deal and he has fullfill it one week age and he was sat to leave the area So he made his plans for his future He'd gathered up as much money as he could and made sure to find a bullhead pilot willingly to take him away from arcade and straight to Vale with as no questions asked and his grandparents in arranged as one for that purpose alone and then he started to just head down towards his hall from his own room now.
As Today was also when he was least guarded by his guard's and His younger sisters were at school, most of his older sisters were doing their's jobs, and Mom had gone to the councils meeting and dad had gone out on a mission and he's was scouting with his very grandfather and that just left just Saphron and while grandmother she's was normally alert, a late night of working left her utterly exhausted and having to take a nap both of them as saphron might be busy in her room with her girlfriend as It's was now or never and it was Jaune picked up his suitcase and let out a shaky breath as Saphron was still sleeping and it'd be hours before everyone got back. This was his best chance. He looked at his reflection in the mirror and tightened the cloak over himself. A lone man walking around on theirs own in Vale was bound to draw attention. While it wouldn't be as bad just now compared to Atlas and especially Mistral it was still something he didn't want to risk As just then he walked out of the house silently and paused once he was outside This was it Once he left, there was no going back. He's took a deep breath and looked one last time at the house he'd grown up in Hopefully they'll just didn't blame Saphron and his grandmother for his leaving. As He's did leave a note explaining why, but he's knew it'd take them a while to understand; if they ever did. "You can do this, Jaune," he whispered to himself. Shaking his head, he walked to the very station of bullhead as this is we're the very bullhead for transport from goods from many different resources and people travel from to the kingdom's as this is wre his ride is waiting as jaune kept on walking down in the field as well ignoring everyone and as he just then he's saw the pilot waiting for him in her very ship as she was in her early 30's as she was wearing her pilot gear as he could recognizer her and he just remembers he did paid her the money she asked for.
He didn't have to worry about her telling people - she was just one of many pilots that passed through the routes and she'd done this before. Which was good, cause he's didn't like the idea of being shipped off to some brothel in Anima. He'd heard horror stories of guys being snatched off the street and being used as breeding studs."You sure about this, kid ?" The pilot asked as he approached. She was an older woman, probably with black begs under her eyes as her very hair at her temples going gray. She was nice enough in the few times they talked before now "I'm sure," he said, As hating how unsure how did he sounded right now "Alright then, it's your money. Hop on my lord." As Jaune gulped and did just that, as fingers tapping nervously on the suitcase's handle once he sat down on the bullhead as This was it. He looked outside the window and watched his surroundings slowly just but changed each passing moment and just surely faded from his sight as he's saw the great wall that touched as the city's and then surrounded by forest edge and the river control and conducted by the city of arcadia as then now He was heading to Vale to his new story.
"You nervous?" the pilot asked him "No." As jaune as answered her as she laughed a bit "Heh. You're a shit liar, kid." She's pulled out a cigarette and lit it with her free hand Jaune didn't tell her how that wasn't proper, "Don't blame you for being shaky. A guy going out to Vale alone.....well, As it's not something that happens often." As she told him "Vale is equal?." As he asked.
"Laws? Sure. As You don't need an escort like Vacuo and no one can just buy you off the streets like Vacuo or Atlas, but as just cause the law says so don't mean everyone's gonna play along as You gotta be careful." She exhaled a thick plume of smoke, "But then again I'm just guessing you already know that's now young master as Why's else would you be wearing that thick cloak ?" As she told him as jaune just didn't reply and held the cloak tighter with his free hand It was a gift he got from his grandparents a couple of years back and she's insisted that he just use it every time one of his older sisters wasn't around to protect him. "Whatever you're planning on doing, good luck as Ain't gonna be easy all on your own young master." As she told him.
"Thanks...you" The rest of the trip was quiet as Jaune looked down at his new scroll and the contact screen with only one name as He's had to leave his old scroll back home cause they would've used it to track him. Not too long after he was finally in Vale port as then it bullhead landed down on as jaune just looked out the window with a mix of excitement and trepidation and he was still worried as He'd only been here once and when mom took him and the rest of the family to see the Vytal tournament, but that's was six or eight years ago as She's adamantly refused to take him to Atlas, Vacuo, and Mistral. It's wasn't any place for a growing boy, she said to him as Jaune get up from his chair as stepped off the bullhead without a word and breathed in the city air his memories of Vale were vague, but he followed the instructions he's was given all the same. Vale was definitely different from arcade as While his home was pretty large by non-kingdom standards, it didn't hold a candle to Vale itself now and as Despite how nervous he still felt, he couldn't deny the sense of wonder at beings somewhere so new and strange. He just spent most of his days inside his home, only occasionally has allowed to help with the family wine business. He was treated like some...fragile doll that the family had to keep locked away for some reason.
He made sure to keep his head down as he's walked. As expected, the majority of the street was filled with girls and women of varying ages. That's wasn't to say there weren't men around, but as he could count the number he passed on two hands and A couple even walked around without escorts, though as he caught one of them beings stopped by a woman who's was very obviously flirting with him as Jaune just kept his disguise even as he got closer and closer to the very designated meeting points. The Roman Candle, one of the premier clubs in Vale, at least according to the very instructions he was given It lived up just from the exterior. He'd never seen anything close to being as fancy back home as the very neon lights and as the bright flame imagery drew the eyes and as the crowd lined up outside - as the majority women, of course - was massive and is it where his very history begans.

As then jaune Arc very day just began with his scroll's alarm going off right next to him as it was on the table as his very azure eyes blinked open and he's yawned, stretching in his bed and He's picked up his scroll and checked the time. five thirty. He quickly turned off the ringer before it woke up Ren and Nora. It would be an hour before they'd need to wake up. He hopped out of his bunk and just pretended he's didn't notice his two teammate's sharing a bed and as they're both might be naked beneath the covers of there blankets as so he just got dressed in work out clothes. He set out at a steady jog to the gym as where's he wasted no time hitting the weights as He worked out for an hour, got a quick shower and changed into his normal attire and then he put on his armor before making his way to the briefing room making a stop in the break room for two cups of coffee. He was one of the last ones to make it in, but he still had a few minutes to spare before as he was actually late again as Jaune slid into the vacant seat next to Marrow and passed him one of the coffee cups again as The Ace operative in turn passed him a doughnut and as It had become something of a ritual between them. As Jaune brought the coffee, Marrow brought his doughnut's and one was for jaune and all was right with the very world as the very girls of team RWBY looked like as they all could use some coffees themselves at the moment but Well, three of them did at any rate. As ruby was just as energetic as she had been the first day after they'd gotten theirs licenses.
But then again Jaune wasn't about to play the coffee mule for everyone else now as Marrow only got a cup because he just reciprocated with the sweet doughy ambrosia. That's and the man had mastered the 'sad puppy dog' look to a point that even Ruby would have found it difficult to match him and then Clover strolled into the very room just a few minutes later as with his very characteristic smile on his face now At this point the assigning of tasks has become a steady routines. As The Ace Ops would be handling security for Amity stadium and as the supply convoys going to and from the worksite and then today tasks for Team RWBY as will be would be assisting them and then team JNPR would be working within Mantle city and then to patrol for any kind of Grimm or any other problems and they will still protect the very people's now matters what as
Jaune volunteered for the same job he always took in the very morning and sometime escorting the kids to school as then At first he'd just chafed at the idea of his first job as a registered huntsman was effectively being a babysitter, but he'd quickly grown fond of the role as it did show a different side of being huntsman that he had forgotten about since Beacon Academy, one of the most prestigious combat schools in all of Remnant fall from the Salem and her Grimm army in the end and in the process his close friend's died in the battles to defend it as it just still miracle that he is still alive till now and that school Only the best of the best can get into a school like this and then whiles in others like vacuo know as Shade Academy is more ruthless towards there's students as it is also in there culture now as just preparing to be more critical but it was different from rest of the Academic in the world now like example Atlas is more technological and as it's very militaristic system to learn discipline where it is needed and then Finally Mistral located on the far eastern continent of Anima The notable cities of the Kingdom are its very capital, Mistral, and the cites of Argus and Kuchinashi and it very huntsman academy haven academy with it beautiful landscape, and also learning more to survive in the very wilds more as just like vacuo but it has his different in teaching But then vale bridge that's was Beacon academy was different from them all the most in remnant as the beacon was or is the light of Remnant, an all rounder if you would.
A new beginning for those who want to change. Now each school does have similar teachings methods in some way but then again each can just and did in the end teach the students differently, in anyway they see fit and Currently at Beacon Academy the initiates are preparing for said initiation, walking to the cliffsides to start their test By getting flung off now and it bought a smile to his face when remembering it and his time in beacon and with his friends now and then he looked around his surroundings as since then he's didn't just think about taking a break and thinking about others thing's but then taking others thing's in consistency like new but different job that are still related towards the humidity or community service as the huntsman in service for them And no, it wasn't because of their very mothers'... interest in him, whatever jokes Nora wanted to make with the rest of them as in reality they with sweet kids and they need someone to help them As they all a genuine joy to be around them. That and it was a good way to start the very day. And there just
nothing like a nice relaxing walk to start the day off as right. Now He had other jobs of course. He's only had to watch the kids in the morning and in the afternoon when they were out of school. That left plenty of time in between for patrolling as the streets and wall of the lower city. As then wave goodbye to team RWBY and a bullhead ride down to Mantle as followed by a short walk from the landing zone, that led Jaune to where's he would meet with the kids and their parents. He got there first, as he just always did and as he did leaned casually against the building behind him as one hand resting comfortably on the pommels of Crocea Mors and his mighty stop sign by his sides as he gazed out across the very street and People were out and about going about their very business for the day and It had surprised Jaune that very people would still be going about theirs lives as when the Grimm could invade at any time, but what else could they do now ? If people just then hid their homes and just boarded their doors as how will they all just make money and buy food for themselves and as then the very fear would just draw and spread like virus around wherever more Grimm's in, putting more people's in danger then it saved. Life had to go on and then Besides, it just wasn't like they were unprotected. Atlas soldiers and mechs patrolled the city, as well as huntsmen and Penny. For the most part the people of Mantle we're safe For now, at least.
"~Oh Jaune~"
As just Despite himself the blonde huntsman smiled at the familiar voice the flirtations from multiple older women just had become a strangely a regular part of his day. Had it been a year ago back as when he first joined Beacon Jaune would have happily basked in their adorations. Had it been a years ago he doubted any of the mother's would have given him a second glanced and It was very funny how's things changed
"Morning ladies," he's said with a smile as he pushed off the wall. "Hey kids, Are you ready for school ?" As then the very children responded with the grumbling that's could be expected of children in grade school.
Jaune was just sure he hadn't been any better at their age. As They were sweet kids, though as then Marle and Lucy held hands on the way to school. He wasn't sure if it's was simply a playground crush or just them comforting each other so they wouldn't be scared. He just didn't want to ask and makes them feel awkward.
"And so how are you today Mr. Arc," asked one of the women as a blonde haired lady wearing a red jacket approach him Miss Scarlett's didn't have a casserole today, a small blessing. It wasn't that they were bad, it was just that you could only eat the same thing every day before it got tiresomely And he's always felt guilty if he didn't eat at least some of it. "I'm doing fine Miss Scarlett just how's are you all doings today " As jaune responded politely towards them as they giggled just a bit "Fine indeed," As purred Miss Opal. The coffees skinned mother of twins wiggled her eyebrows just at him, a mischievous grin curling her lips now ' Yes now there it is the teasing and very much flirting now ' As it then they all just started to giggle again "Mooooom," As then one of them just groaned her daughters, face flushed from embarrassments just now as Jaune just chuckled nervously, cheeks turning pink. "Er, thanks." Eager to change the value subject before the other's piled on he's glanced around. "If that's everyone then let's get moving as We don't want the kids to be late." As he told them as the very mothers just nodded and waved him and children away from the mother care to his as the very blonde huntsman as led the way down the very cold street as the very kids followed behinds and away listen to him in single file, just as except for Marle and Lucy who's were walking hand in hand like usual as the very mothers followed behind them all in silence as just observing theirs children and Jaune as every move as he just didn't flatter himself by thinking it was so they could ogle him. Or rather, it wasn't just so they could ogle him even further but as in another case if Even with there children are with a huntsman and they still just wanted to keep an eye on theirs kids in case something bad or unexpected just happened.
As then many people might think about that why just would something bad like Grimm doing here as this is the very deep city into Mantle as Grimm incursion as wasn't likely common around here but it was far from impossible as look what happened with Vale and his academys in the end as he's needs to be extra sharp and in the end No parent just wanted their child away from them even if the likelihoods of danger was very low as he's thought about it as it was just like with his parents as in the end he learnt it the head way and it's just imagined as that can make a man do dangerous and incredible things as jaune has great parents but in the end he was bad son and he hopes they are fine and well and so is his sister's and there very future as he needs to understand others more better and then he needs to be strong for his family and for everyone who are depending on him The kids would be safe at the school itself. It was guarded by Atlas soldiers and could go into very lockdown at a moment's noticed if necessary now At the first crosswalks Jaune stepped out into the very road and held up his sign, ensuring any oncoming traffic would see him and his charges.
As jaune just ushered them across and waited until everyone's was clear before stepping out of the road and retaking his very place at the front of the line. The children were just chattered to one another, as talking superheroes comics, video games, or anything's else that came to theirs little minds. He caught mention of X-Ray and Vav and made a mental note to check out a comic shop sometime soon as It's had been awhile since as he'd last read the series He was sure to have some catching up to do later first he needs to go and the complete his tasks for today as then Jaune scroll suddenly began to go off, a rhythmic monotone alarm chime as The mothers' scrolls went off with the same alert tone He snatched his scroll out of his pocket and checked the very message he's knew would be there. As Minor Grimm presence reported in Sector 11. All Mantle citizens in area find cover and remain indoors until the threat has passed. All huntsmen in the area be on alerts for a pack of 5 Sabyrs in the area repeat Sector eleven wait That was his sector as jaune just then started to activate his armour and prepare to do battle as today he needs to act like crazy and protect.
