Three days after a confrontation with his bullies, Jaune has been distant to everyone which made some feel bad, others felt guilty, while some saw it as an act of cowardice

Jaune is seen in his room showering as he had recently woke up "Goodmorning citizens of Vale, today we have an interesting story for you all, the Vale Police Department has confirmed that the leader of the White Fang's Vale branch Adam Taurus is now confirmed to be M.I.A, and his current whereabouts are unknown, he remains at large and if spotted contact the VPD or your local huntsmen immediately, this is Lisa Lavender of VNN signing out!" Lisa Lavender reported as Jaune overheard everything from his scroll while he was in the shower

Jaune exited the shower as he readied himself for the day, but first he has to go at Ozpin's office since he has an important message to go there before breakfast

Jaune is seen riding the elevator going up to Ozpin's office, where Jaune is wondering what reason was he called up for this early in the morning

The doors open to reveal Ozpin sitting on his desk and in front of him was a girl with orange eyes, brown hair that formed a long pony tail, her clothing resemble those of Mistralian monks and she wore a half mask with two lenses on her right

"Ah Jaune, there you are" Ozpin said as the girl looked at Jaune

"Hello Headmaster" Jaune said as sat down on the empty chair on Ozpin's desk, as the girl looked at him curiously

"So what complaints have I received this time?" Jaune as nonchalantly

Ozpin chuckled "No we have no complaints but I've got some news for you Jaune" Ozpin said holding out some papers as Jaune looked at him "You're getting a new partner"

Jaune raised an eyebrow as he looks at the girl now knowing why she's here, the girl sheepishly waved her hand at him

"Hi" she said sounding shy

"Hello" Jaune replied

"I'm Jun Wuju" the girl said

"I'm Jaune, let's get along now shall we.... partner?" Jaune said with a smile as he holds out his hand

Jun grabs Jaune's hand and shook it "Sure thing partner, I'm just glad there's someone in this academy that isn't prideful, after all my father taught me that too much pride would set one's decent and also I could care less about you using fake transcripts, I mean.... I never even been to a combat school, just home schooled" Jun said as this made Jaune smile that there is someone other than Joraal, Ozpin, and Tai who don't care about mere papers

Meanwhile Ozpin looked down in sadness, he knew Master Yi and has meditated with him before whenever Ozpin would visit Mistral, sadly hearing his passing made Ozpin wish he was there to save his friend but now he can repay that dept by protecting his daughter, the only one who survived
