Jaune was doing his workout at the Beacon gym when he felt two familiar figure enters as he turned to see his former father Nicholas and Cassandra arc the ones who abandoned him over his fake transcript. Jaune glared at them

"What are you two doing here." Jaune said.

"It's been a while son...how you been." Nicholas said with sadness seeing his own flesh and blood glaring at him.

"Don't call me son." Jaune snarled at the man whose face was starting to lose it's youthful beauty due to age.

"I'm sorry about that son...but this is for the best..." He said trying to reason with the boy. "We were able to get in contact with your former team, they told us that you were back ..."

"I don't need a damn meeting from her! And how did you even get into Beacon?" Jaune said looking at Nicholas like he was a complete stranger.

"How is the academy so hard to get into if you know people that can do favors?" Cassandra said "We just came to see you"

"You left me! You abandoned me! How am I supposed to trust anything you say?" Jaune spat out in anger as both flinched

"We are truly sorry son." Cassandra said with teary eyes. "But we knew what we were getting you into. The world isn't a safe place for you anymore ...the Grimm will come looking for you now ...and I won't be there for you when you're fighting them." She added sadly. "Please...we just wanted you to survive."

Jaune couldn't take anymore and he punched Nicholas on his face. The elder Arc's eyes widened in shock as he was thrown off balance. Jaune didn't hesitate punching him again this time knocking the old man down on the ground.

"That's for all the pain and suffering you caused me." Jaune growled

Cassandra tried to pull Jaune away but he held her by her arm. "Son please.."

"YOU NEVER SUPPORT ME!!!!" he yelled at the top of his voice hitting Nicholas over and over again before turning towards Cassandra. "And how about you! I'm done putting up with your shit as well..."

"Son please..." Nicholas was cut off when Jaune continue to rant

"Don't you remember how we treated you like crap? What did you think would happen to us once we left you at the academy alone? Do you have any idea how hard is it to know that your parents abandoned you over a piece of paper? Just so you know, you're lucky I left you alive and didn't kill you like you deserved!" Jaune spat out in anger.

"I had no idea...that you had potential." Cassandra said

"Of course not! How could you possibly understand what I've been through? You abandoned me! Abandoned me like an asshole because you wanted me to get hurt!" Jaune growled as he hit Cassandra again. "You want me to forgive you? Forget it you trust Cardin a racism bastardg I'll continue to treat you like a total stranger!"

"I-I'm sorry..."

"No, you're not! You didn't even apologize when I beat the shit out of you." Jaune snarled

"Please don't be mad...please let's start fresh and..." Cassandra begged.

"Do you know what it's like to lose the you parent trust. Beside I know what you were trying to do. I know you wanted me to continue our blood line by using me as a child maker. You never gave me a chance to prove myself. It's no wonder that I'm a failure in your eyes because you don't even want to see that I have potential!" Jaune screamed out.

Cassandra started to tear up and turned around to walk away.

"I can't believe you're still like this." Nicholas said looking down at his son in shame. "It really is too late now..."

"It is indeed," He muttered as he walked towards the exit without saying another word.

***

Jaune went into his room and threw himself on the bed sobbing. He was still feeling the pain of being abandoned and it hurt him a lot more than he could explain. Jaune screamed in frustration as he kept punching the wan as his hand were getting bloody. Jaune couldn't stop himself from feeling sad, angry, upset, hurt and disappointed at everything. He felt that he was the only one that cared about what happened to him while his parents were trying to be in his life . He didn't care that they were worried for their family, that they wanted the best for him and that they wanted him to go back home with them but Jaune didn't care because he knew that they just wanted to continue the bloodline.

He remembered how they left him alone at the academy when he got there and how they never even asked after he made it into Beacon. He knew he was right that he should've been treated differently by them because his blood would be the pure Arc in Remnant. He would probably be the most powerful if he had some real training rather than learning by himself but Jaune refused to accept his true fate.

Jaune screamed in anger and sadness and punched the wall as his hand was becoming numb from the repeated blows that is someone softly grabbed them and begin healing them as he saw Gwen, Winter, Jade, Anna, and Monica staring at him in horror.

"...What are you doing here!" He said out as his hands stopped bleeding and the pain faded away.

"Jaune...it's okay, we know that your father and mother were wrong for abandoning you and treating you like shit." Gwen said

"No they weren't! They didn't deserve any of my love and respect." Jaune snapped.

"But Jaune..." Anna said trying to calm him down

"How could they just abandon me and leave me alone? It wasn't right to treat me like a dog. I don't know what they thought about me but they sure didn't think of me as an important member of their family." He said bitterly

"And now you're punishing yourself over this?" Monica asked

"Yes!" Jaune said

"It's okay Jaune, we've all been in your shoes before. Just look at us and we all came from fucked up families and we are all fine with it and we can still do something great with our lives. I'm sure that your parents aren't so bad." Winter said trying to comfort him.

"I-I'm sorry... I'm being selfish..." Jaune muttered looking down.

"Its okay...your mad. We understand." Gwen said smoothly

"Thank you...for understanding..."

"But you have to get your anger under control Jaune. Remember what happened during the fight with the Huntsmen, the fight you got into because of your emotions." Monica added.

"Yeah...I know." He sighed.

"You're welcome ...and we're not done yet..." Winter said as she walked closer and put her arms around his shoulders. "We're going to make things better for you."

Jaune smiled and hugged back as he nuzzled into her

"So how about we get out of here and head back to the dorms." Jade said.

"Why? It's getting late and we need to sleep for tomorrow." Monica said as she pulled the door open to leave the room.

"Because it's not late for you guys." Gwen said with a smile. "And we want you to be able to talk properly without having to worry about other people overhearing it. So what do you say?"

Jaune gave a hesitant nod as they left the room leaving him behind.

***

Jaune felt a lot calmer after his girlfriends calmed him down and talked to him. Jaune was letting Jade and Monica snuggle up to him as Gwen was working on her paper as Winter was fixing her rapier and Anna was doing something with her hair.

"You really love that hair of yours don't you?" He heard Monica giggling.

"What? Why would you think that?" Anna asked as she finished up and started to comb her hair.

"Don't play dumb! You like your hair a lot, don't you?"

"No!" She quickly replied and then realized how loud she's been speaking so she lowered her voice. "Of course I don't!"

"You don't have to be ashamed Anna!" Gwen said as she finished her paper.

"I'm not!" Anna said defensively. "Just stop teasing me!"

"Hey I'm just trying to see if we can tease you about something you actually care about." Gwen said with a wink.

Anna huffed out in anger before putting the brush away and went towards her bed.

"You know we're only joking around, right?" Jade said.

"I know but it doesn't change how I feel about it," Anna sighed. "You should just cut your hair short or something..."

"No!" Anna said with a frown as she lay on her bed. "This is the last thing I'd do! It's my pride...and besides..."

"Well?" Monica asked.

"I'll admit that you're probably better off without this haircut, but I'm keeping it!" Winter said

"Stop teasing her." Jaune said annoyed.

"We will continue to tease you until you get fed up with us and give up." Monica chuckled. "But it's alright to have a little bit of fun. After all that's what you guys are doing now too right?"

"What do you mean?"

"Don't you remember how much fun it was with us and Jade and how happy she looked when we teased her about that one thing?"

Jaune smiled at the memory. He remembered the moment they made it a competition between himself and Jade over who can tease the other more and how happy she was when he beat her with how many times she was being teased and mocked.

"Yes it was a lot of fun!" She laughed.

"But don't worry about your hair, you should know by now that I won't give up until I see your face light up in joy after hearing the first compliment about your hair from someone." Winter said.

"I guess you're right..."

"Good girl." Monica said as she walked towards Anna and wrapped her arms around her shoulders. "Don't be scared to let your true feelings out because we all care about you, okay."

Anna gave a small smile as she laid down on her bed.

*****

Jaune got up early before breakfast as he tried to get up but Winter and Gwen more cuddling with him as Winter refused to let go along with Gwen.

"Wake up...I need to move." Jaune said.

"Why? You're not going to eat breakfast here?" Winter asked as she kissed his neck

"No. I need to train in order for me to get better. Also it might take too much time to prepare our own breakfast since we only have limited items dorms.," He said while looking around and seeing that no one else was getting up.

Gwen refused to move. "It's alright Jaune. We love being together like this! "

"Okay fine." Jaune said kissing Gwen on the lips and making her smile before he continued moving towards the kitchen.

They both were still lying on the bed when he walked into the room with the food.

"I-it's fine! I'll just get it myself!" Gwen said standing up.

"No please don't leave me alone." Winter said. "You're already so busy, let us help you."

"Oh no don't do that! I'd rather do this myself," He sighed as he started to open the microwave and took the tray with breakfast from inside it.

He then sat on one side of the table with Winter, Gwen, Anna, Jade, Monica and Winter sitting in chairs on the other side with him. He gave Gwen, Anna, and Monica two plates before they all began eating.

"So I heard that Hazel is dead." Winter said as Jaune nodded

"Yep killed him two days ago." Jaune said smirking

"That knocks out one more of Salem group." Gwen said finishing up what was on her plate "Beside that he didn't look like much anyway so not really missed if no longer a threat?" She asked

"He wasn't I had used black flames to easily kill him." Jaune said

"I always wonder how black flames work." Jade said curiously staring at it "It's just fire that the hardest element can use..." she mumbled while taking another bite from his bread "How do you know? What does it mean for me...and us now?"

"Because Black flame can easily dry up lakes and river. It also has an effect on living beings since they have water in their bodies too but mostly because its very easy to create large amounts without expending any mana or effort." Monica said looking at the others who were nodding silently

"So anything else interesting." Anna asked

"We got into a fight with a bunch of people who are apparently the strongest huntsman in this city. One of them is called Rufus." Jaune answered as Gwen groaned in displeasure "Oh yeah and we fought a lot of people before I was able to get some rest. We went around the forest killing some grimm."

Gwen nodded slowly before asking a question

"Are there still grims left in the woods?"

Jaune shrugged and replied

"Yes and no. There are more than when I came here. That's probably why you couldn't find anything in the forest."

"What do you mean?" Jade asked looking at the others for answers

"Apparently the last time I was here, there weren't many grimm in the area and only about five were near the entrance to the forest."

"How come?" Gwen asked with interest

"They must've been scared off by my presence in the past." Jaune said

Winter nodded thoughtfully

"Yeah, I guess that would be one explanation but you were just a kid then." She said

"So less grimm in Vale now." Jade said "That good thing was impressive..."

"I can see why the council wants to use you...you're good at fighting against other Grimms." Winter said finishing her food

"But that's all they want right?" Gwen asked while eating from her plate. The others nodded with looks of surprise on their faces. Gwen took a moment to think back before answering

"If so, I'll be happy if it's what I'm best at." Jaune said smirking until he notice a portal opening as someone annoying came out

"Not you again." Jaune said as Raven appeared

"I have come for...."Raven could not finished as she was knocked out by Anna who hit her with frying pan with annoyed look

"Their she is knocked out." Anna said looking at the unconscious girl with a satisfied smile.

***

Jaune was entering back to his dorm as he yelped as Coral tackled him with Amber and Destiny in hot pursuit colliding with him

"We missed you." All 3 said smiling happily

"Hey girls." Jaune said laughing

"It seems we need to talk." Destiny said looking at Jade

"Well let us go in first." Amber suggested. "After all you're going to have to deal with a lot of questions soon anyway."

Destiny agreed as the door opened for them as they all entered the room as Jaune sat down on his bed as Coral snuggle up to him as he wrapped an arm around her, and Destiny was shocked by how close she'd gotten to him over the past few weeks since their relationship had begun. She still couldn't believe that it happened so fast but at least now there wasn't any more secrets between them. Destiny and Amber pouted

"We want cuddle to." Destiny said quietly.

Amber looked back towards the bedroom where Coral was laying next to Jaune who just smiled warmly before looking at both of them with a smile.

"I guess we could do this right?" He asked softly as everyone nodded happily and Destiny leaned against him while Amber laid her head upon his shoulder, which made Destiny happy knowing that no matter what happens in life; she would always be able to come home here whenever things got rough again.

"Now this is nice." Amber purred as she nuzzled Jaune shoulder affectionately as he ran one hand through her hair gently.

"So...I heard that the vytal festival is coming up are we participating in the battle tournament." Coral asked Jaune curiously as he shrugged slightly.

"It's not like I'm competing or anything..." He replied lightly before smiling at them. "But yeah we'll probably compete together with our team if nothing else."

Coral smiling brightly at him once more. "Then maybe we should practice our moves? It can only help me get better!"

Jaune laughed softly before kissing the top of her head lovingly.

"You know that isn't necessary though right?" He told her gently.

Coral giggled cutely before leaning forward and pressing her lips to his cheek. "No it doesn't hurt my feelings when you say such sweet words to me."

"Sweet we are participating the tournament. We are going to crush it." Amber said excitedly causing everyone to laugh along with her.

Jaune then kissed all 3 girls' lips in turn making them blush heavily before they broke apart from each other, leaving him staring into their eyes as he did so.

"How did I get so lucky." Coral said blushing deeply as she turned away quickly.

The others chuckled at her reaction until Jaune spoke up.

"If your wondering about the same thing as me then yes. I am the one who lucky to have another 3 amazing girlfriends."

They were quiet for a moment as they stared at Jaune who seemed rather amused by it himself.

"I don't think anyone has ever called us beautiful before." Amber muttered shyly after a long pause.

Jaune grinned widely before moving closer to Destiny who shifted nervously under his gaze.

"Beautiful huh?" He asked teasingly.

She didn't reply instead she moved even closer to him, wrapping her arms around his neck and pulling herself tighter against his chest as he felt something stir inside him, making him shiver pleasantly.

All 4 were cuddling until Jaune then suddenly felt danger sense flare within him as he quickly stood from his bed and walked over to the window, staring out into the night sky outside as Amber, Coral, and Destiny followed behind him closely.

"What is it Jaune?" Coral asked worriedly as he turned away from the view outside and looked back at her.

He shook his head slowly as he felt some energy watching him

"There's something wrong...there something out there in." He whispered harshly making Jade frown deeply.

"Where did you feel this?" Destiny demanded to know as he took a deep breath trying to calm himself down enough to tell them.

"The feeling."Jaune said...as his eyes widen

"Nora..Ren...What are they doing" Jaune said angrily as he grabbed his weapons as he looked at the girls "Stay here."

"Why!?" Coral exclaimed loudly as he started to run off.

"Don't worry! Just stay here you guys I will be back safe!" Jaune shouted 

as his teammates/girlfriends watched him leave with wide eyes before turning to look at each other as they waited for him to return.

***

Jaune rushed across the forest as he summoned his sword as he felt evil energy flowing through the fiorest. The feeling grew stronger every second as he came closer to a clearing where he saw Nora and Ren smirking at him

"What did you do." Jaune said angrily as he readied his weapon.

"Oh please if you won't come back with us simply. Then we will take force." Nora taunted him as she waved her staff menacingly.

Ren simply stood beside her nodding approvingly at her actions.

"You're coming with us" Nora continued as she stepped forwards to attack him.

Jaune dodged to the left avoiding the strike as he swung his blade upwards catching her leg scratching it as it bleeds

"Ouch." She cried out as he pulled her down to the ground.

"That wasn't very smart attacking me while I was distracted." He growled lowly as he pinned her to the dirt floor beneath him.

"Please...you really need to stop underestimating me." She pleaded as he glared at her.

"Because I know exactly what you two are planning." Jaune said darkly as he brought his foot down hard on her stomach.

"Gahhh!!" She screamed out as she coughed blood onto the ground below her.

"Now what did you do?." He added coldly looking at Ren who smirked at him as Nora was healing faster making Jaune eyes widen at the regeneration powers as he looked at Ren again

"Oh just bringing our teammate back." Ren said as Jaune dodge a spear aiming for his leg as his eyes widen seeing someone who should be dead it was Pyrrha Nikos but different as she look at him smirks as she was dressed in armor with deep green eyes

"I told you I will return to claim you as mine." Pyrrha said in a lovesick tone as Jaune points his weapon at her

"I killed you once I will kill you again." Jaune said as Pyrrha activated her powers as Nora and Ren change

"So you sold your souls for power." Jaune spat bitterly as he pointed his sword at her

Pyrrha smirking before activating her shield as her body glowed red as she formed it into a barrier.

"Come on...come at me...let's see what kind of power you have now." Pyrrha challenged as Jaune frowned as he glanced at Ren and Nora.

"Are you sure about this?" Ren asked seriously as he held his hands up as Nora smirked as Jaune summon his armor

"Let's show him the true might of our team." Pyrrha said as she charged at Jaune who blocked her strikes easily as he looked at her face as she grinned evilly.

"Your body is mine." She promised as he narrowed his eyes at her.

"And my heart isn't yours." Jaune replied coldly as he pushed her backwards as they struggled to gain control of the fight Ren and Nora changed forms, becoming monsters as they attacked him.

"Hahahaha!" Nora laughed mockingly as she slashed at Jaune who jumped back dodging her attacks as she kept getting frustrated with Jaune dodging 

"Stay still so I can break your leg." Nora said as Jaune scoffed and replied

"You've lost your touch little girl." He said as he struck her legs sending her crashing to the ground as Ren lunged towards him slashing at his side

"This is not going well" Nora moaned as she crawled over to her fallen friend as she helped Pyrrha stand up.

Jaune sighed deeply as he watched them struggle to keep up with him, as he sent a roundhouse kick towards Nora knocking her flying.

"Ahhhhhh!!!" Nora screamed as she crashed into the trees

Jaune focused his attention on Pyrrha as she unleashed a wave of flames towards him, forcing him to jump out of its way.

"Faster than expected." Pyrrha gasped as she summoned her shield blocking the fire from touching her skin.

Jaune gritted his teeth as he felt rage boiling up inside him.

"You think you can get away with this." Jaune said as he punched her in the gut making her stumble back gasping for air.

"All I ever want is your love." Pyrrha groaned as she fell to the ground as Ren charge at him as Jaune dodge and kicked him into a tree, breaking it as Jaune clashed with Pyrrha spear with his sword as both of them stumbled back from the impact

Jaune sent black flame at Ren as he dodged the attack, striking in Jaune thigh burning him badly.

"Dammit!" He cursed angrily as he felt pain rush through his body.

He used his speed to spin around as he lashed out with his swords slicing off several tendrils as he hit the ground hard, rolling out of the way as Ren sliced his torso open.

"Damnit!" Jaune yelled out as blood poured out of his wounds as he forced himself to move faster

"I thought you said you would never lose again." Ren mocked him as he stabbed at him.

Jaune barely managed to block the strike before spinning around and kicking Ren off balance as he landed hard on the ground.

"Fuck you!" Jaune said as he waited for Ren to charge as he sent black flames hitting him in the chest, burning him severely.

Ren howled in agony as he tried to heal his burns, failing miserably as he fell to his knees coughing up blood.

"Is that all you got?" Pyrrha taunted him as he snarled angrily

"Enough talk time for games." Jaune said coldly as he launched a barrage of strikes aimed for her neck as she raised her shield, using her magic to defend herself.

"Not bad...but still far from being able to defeat me." Pyrrha said as she parried his blows effortlessly.

Jaune grit his teeth as he kept up the assault as he slammed his sword into her shield, cracking it as she retaliated by slamming her own sword into his abdomen as Nora hit him in the head

"Natasha." Jaune said as his Phoenix appeared in her human form glaring at Nora who looked surprised

"Kill her." Jaune said coldly shocking Nora 

"Yes Master!" Natasha said as she leapt forwards, tackling Nora to the ground as she rained punches upon her head as she screamed out in agony.

"Nora." Pyrrha said only to be sent flying by Jaune as he tackled her to the ground.

"Stop!" Ren said but Jaune threw black flames again killing him as Nora eyes widen as tears where forming so hard seeing Ren corpse being burned

"NOOOOOO!!!!" Nora said but was tackled by Natasha as Jaune glared at Pyrrha

"Die already!" He said as he sent black flames towards Pyrrha.

She shielded herself from the flames as she countered by summoning her shield, deflecting them harmlessly.

Jaune growled as he ran at Pyrrha.

She quickly summoned a wall of ice which stopped him dead in his tracks, freezing him solid.

"Told you..." Pyrrha smirked as she smashed her fist into his frozen face.

"OWWWW FUCK THAT HURTS!" Jaune screamed as he fell to the ground coughing up blood.

"Finally...your weakness is revealed." Pyrrha teased him as she stood tall above him, smiling evily as she cracked her knuckles.

"You'll pay for what you did to me." Jaune growled angrily as he stood up, throwing his arm forward and unleashing an onslaught of strikes aimed at her, landing blow after blow.

"Ha-ha! You are not getting away with this!" Pyrrha laughed evilly as she blocked his strikes with ease.

Her smile vanished however when he threw his entire weight at her causing her to fall back as he roared in anger, grabbing hold of her hair and yanking it hard.

"No!" Pyrrha gasped in pain as he squeezed harder.

Jaune glared daggers at her as she fought against the pain to pull free from him.

"You bitch...you fucking betrayed me!" He bellowed furiously as she broke out into tears, sobbing hysterically.

"I'm sorry...please forgive me." Pyrrha begged as she reached out weakly.

Jaune ignored her reaching hand and instead grabbed her throat roughly, squeezing so tightly that blood began pouring from her nose.

"I hate you...why didn't you just die like I wanted you too?!" He screamed at her as he choked her.

"AHHH FUUUCCCKKK-" Pyrrha gasped as she passed out from lack of oxygen.

Jaune let go of her as he stared at his bloody fingers in disgust, rubbing them clean with snow as he turned his gaze back to Pyrrha as he formed black flames in his palm, pointing it at her.

"Burn in hell you whore!" He said as he released the flames at her.

The flames engulfed Pyrrha completely until nothing remained except ash floating in the air.

"It ends here." Jaune whispered softly as he closed his eyes before opening them to see Natasha dragging a dead Nora

"You did a good job." Jaune said gently stroking her head

"Thank you master." Natasha said happily as he nodded slowly "But don't get cocky. Remember they can overpower us if we got cocky"

"Of course Master." Natasha said quietly before vanishing.

Jaune walked over to Nora's remains before kneeling next to her lifeless body, staring down at her beautiful features before it starting to disappear . Jaune pulled out a picture and place 3 certain emblem on the floor where Nora was

"I may have hate you guys but I hope you find peace with your family and loved ones. Rest well." Jaune muttered as he begin standing up and walking away without another word as Natasha entered his body as he turned around and shed a tear for his former friend as a certain emblem before the betrayal and the remains of the three

After betrayal

Jaune was walking back as he ran into Gwen, Jade, Anna, and Monica who looked alarmed seeing blood on their boyfriends clothes.

"What happened." Jade asked worriedly as she rushed over to him.

"Pyrrha returned. Nora and Ren dead. Pyrrha body burned. This time I made sure they stay dead." Jaune said as he looked around as everyone else gasped in shock.

"Why didn't you ask for help!?" Monica exclaimed .

"I had to finish this myself." Jaune answered honestly.

Gwen approached him carefully and placed a hand on his shoulder.

"Don't blame yourself Jaune...we're here for you no matter what happens." She said reassuringly as he hugged her tight.

"Thanks Gwen..." Jaune murmured as he pulled away from her.

Jade moved closer to him placing a hand on his cheek as he blushed slightly.

"We will always be here for you okay?" Jade said sweetly as he smiled shyly.

Anna stepped forwards wrapping her arms around him hugging him tightly.

"Never forget that you are loved by all of us." Anna said as he nodded slowly.

Monica also wrapped her arms around him and kissed his forehead lightly.

"Always remember that we love you more than anything in the world." Monica said as he smiled warmly at her.
