as she flutters her eyes open and vision was quickly clearing up she looks around and see that their in a tent and tries to move but then notices that their roped down to a chair and that their not alone as they look at a different area of the room seeing other people were on the same situation as her and then she activated their semblence as they are able to see their surroundings as a blue aura and looks around and sees that she's
in a bandit camp with other women like her in a tent
"shit" she mumbles to her self and tries to escape but then sees someone walking towards her and stops using her semblence and shuts off her aura and pretends to be unconcious as the stranger gets in the room as for a few seconds they was quiet
"stop pretending being unconcious or i'll wake you up the hard way" said the voice that sounded feminen but younger and a few seconds of silence later "okay then the hard way"
as then instantly she was slapped and it stung but her aura flickerd
"ow! what the hell is wrong with you!" yelled Magenta
"well a brat like you wasn't waking up so this is the hard way"
"wouldn't you drop a bucket of water to wake them up !?"
"this isn't some action movie or some action novel" said the girl in annoyance
"well excuse me I thought that... wait a minute you guys read?"as she said in sarcasm but then was surprised by bandits reading sure theres nothing wrong with that but still you wouldn't think that some bandits would also pillage libraries too for books would you ?
"what you think that we only pillage villages just for the sake of it" said the girl
with the only answer was Magenta raising a brow and giving her a look saying ' are you serious' and the girl just sees this
"ok fair"
"so whats your name?" asked magenta
"why you wanna know brat"
"cause I need to call you something"
"tch non of ya buisness brat"
"ok then i'll call you by how you are then hmmm" she said deeply thinking what to callher then a few seconds she got it
"ok I got it I'll call you bitch now that fits you so well cause of your bitchy personality that all must oh so love" she said in a smile with sarcasm is heard as the girl has a tick mark
"you must have all the boys running after you with swords and weapons on hand for you don't you "
then a metaphorical arrow hit her ego, heart and pride three times as she then put a sword right next to her neck as she still smiles
"what you smiling at brat " bitch said in annoyance
"well i asked for a name so it's kinda your fault cause you didn't give me one oh and the name's Magenta not brat, bitch" Said Magenta as the blade was next to her neck
"tch the names Vernal brat" the now properly introduced Vernal introduced herself
" well it's nice to meet you Vernal bitch"she said and Vernals eye twitches
"you little-" but was cut off when an alarm bell was heard through out the camp
"Tch you got lucky this time little shit"said an angry Venral
"see you never Vernal bitch!" Magenta yelled out at Vernal and as soon as he got a good distance away she let out a breath of relife and was beginning to try to undue the ropes
'I'm so grateful dad taut us how to get out of any bindings Oumbless you old man'
as the bandits are infront of the gate and look to see a man with a hood over his features and if you look carefully you can see the red hood is connected to the black jacket and if you look at the hood a noticeable white skull design can be seen on the hood and a red scarf, and what looks like a sword on his back in the sheath and then the man grabs on to the handle of the sword and the sheath with it it extended into a bigger sword and he instanly threw the sword and it landed on the look out and as all bandits were laughing instantly the man warped on to the look out and all were shocked and the man quickly cut down all of the bandits on the tower
-Scene trasition -
infront of the gates of the brawen bandit tribe Raven sees that all of the bandits in her tribe are dead on the floor bodies laying in their own blood some decapitated others their guts on the floor while some had faces frozen like their screaming in pain and the sight was horrifying
all around the death and carnage it seems to be like there is no end in sight and then see a man in the middle of the camp with a sword painted in blood with a kid next to him as they as they both stand still and
Marcus just looking around mildly impress
"*whistles* pretty impresive you were able to kill all these guys all on your own you must be strong" said Marcus while Raven is looking at the man feeling complex emotions as in anger, astonishment and...relief ? and many more emotions that she can't register but still she was the leader of the tribe and she has a resposibility to avenge them
"so you killed my tribes men then hmm"she said to the stranger as she goes to a fighting stance the man turned around and it was Gideon looking at the two confused and then relised on how bad it looked for him
"wait I didn't-" but was cut off by Marcus as he went to cut the mans head off with the a sword and Gideon reacted swiftly and blocked with his shield and pushed Mercury away for the boys safety and Raven followed the same action of Marcus
(if your wondering where Marcus got the sword, what happend to the other bandits)
( Gideon is purple, Raven is yellow, Marcus is green also I don't own this)
as they continue to fight with Gideon having the upper hand but also getting and as soon as Mar cus was kicked away am]nd fell to the floor and saw Mercury in the side in shock and amazement at the fighting prowess of the man that saved him but Marcus can't help but get angry at the mistake evertything in his life would've been better if that little shit didn't exist everything would be much better and just blames the kid everything that happend to him things would hagone smoothly if it wasn't for that little shit and in rage he threw the sword towards Mercury and he saw it getting closer to him and closed his eyes and prepared himself for the pain
but it it never came and so opens his eyes to see the the man shielding him as his Aura was flickering by the hit which surprised him
"why?"
Gideon turned around to the boy somewhat confused "What?"
"why did you defende me while you could've taken out the guy by now if you let it hit" said Mercury
"is their suppose to be a reason to help another person?" Gideon asked the
"well yeah their should be a reason for it"
"hmm ok then let this be your reason it's because i wanted to" he said as if it answered it all but to mercury it didn't
"ugh shut up you make me want to kill myself already oh and also don't take your eyes of the enemy" said Marcus then having a cocky smirk
*snap*
with a snap of his fingers the sword imbeded on the shield exploded and the force of the explosion in close proximity to both Mercury and Gideon made them fly with Gideons shield somewhat still together but was falling apart and his aura was flashing dangerously and since Mercury has no aura but was defended he was lucky enlungs ough to just have bruses and end up unconscience
'Damn it I let my guard down' and discretly looks towards the uncounsience Mercury
'the boy did say that the man has multiple semblences but what are does other semblences is the question and how many does the man have is the question' as gideon is a good distance away seeing his options on what he can do
-scene Tansition -
As Jaune is Running through the woods heavily breathing his lungs feeling like their on fire as he follows the footprints on the ground and fews seconds later he gets to the gate of the bandit tribe and as he saw the slaughter at the front of the gate the decapitated men and women some burnt into nothing but a black corpse left and worse atrosoties that shouldn't be seen by any man and seeing such a horrendous sight he couldn't help it in and fall to his knees and vomited out everything he had gasping for air as he screams but stood up looking foward down the path litterd with bodies of the dead bandits in gruesome ways they were killed
but he remembers why he was here
-Flashback-
as both Saphron and Jaune run to where the noise came from they went to a three story house and yelling can be heard inside and without even thinking twice Jaune sprinted inside to help anyone
and as he enters inside the house multiple people hurt, some unconcious others bleeding but wrapped with bandeges and children crying as Saphron then looks around in shock as she sees what happend in the place that was once thought safe was now in ruins and starting to fall apart as then Jaune goes to the ones that are severly injured does that look like their on deaths door any second but with a snap of his finger from Jaune they were fully healthy as he does this for the others that were nearly dead or truly injured he asked for dust as he kept replenishing his magic and trying to heal as many people that he could until he felt exhausted as he got out of the building everyone looked at him in awe but then the whole building was starting to fall
"MY WIFE IS STILL IN THERE!" Yelled a man in worry and again as if it was intinct Jaune ran back in to the falling building
"Jaune!" someone yelled out to him in worry but it didn't reach him
he looked around for any signs of the woman but saw no one but then
"Help somebody!" yelled a women for help as she was in the second floor as Jaune Ran towards the voice on the 2nd floor as he went up to stairs and ran up as he did he quickly looked around and saw a women under a beam post as she tried push it off of her but it started to get more lose and as Jaune tried going to her the roof fell to the ground and took down the floor with it and caused a fire to start in the bottom floor and thinking quickly he equiped his sword he has with him and just about threw it to the other side but just as it hit the floor he felt a hand on his shoulder and looked back and was in shock to see that it was his older sister
"SAPHRON!?" he yelled in surprise and she was about to speak but was cut off when both warped to the other side and the floor where they were standing gave out and fell to the bottom floor as the fire grew brighter but Jaune quickly shook his head and quickly went to the woman who slowly being squished as he tries to take the heavy beam off but isn't able to
"Saph come and help me over here!" as his voice got her out of a sort of stupor she nodded and went to help him move the heavy object but yet didn't budge and the building was falling piece by piece and the lady looked at the two children despretly trying to save her she let a tear fall down and said to them
"thank you both for trying to save me but it's ok to let tell my husband that-" she was cut off by the boy
"why don't you tell him yourself when we get out of here" as the boy said and kept strugling as if on reasponse to challenge what he said the building was starting to catch on fire
"please run get out of here there's no point of saving a dead woman" pleaded the women now more worried for the childrens safety the her own life
"no were not leaving you here" reasponded Saphron also trying to get off the heavy object but still not budging and the woman moved by the childrens efforts she starts to tear up but then the building again creaking and snapping is heard and a big piece of wooden beam was falling towards Jaune but he didn't notice but
"JAUNE!"
Saphron did and in attempt to protect her brother she pushed him out of the way but she took his place
thump
As Jaune sees inhorror as his sister fall to the ground unconcious bleeding from her forehead
"SAPHRON!" he screams in worry as everything starts to fall around Jaune
"go get out of here save yourselves forget about me" the woman tried and telling him to get the girl and leave her behind but Jaune was hesitanting as he looks between Saphron in his thoughts almost going through many senarios as his young mind goes into overdrive
-outside the building-
As many of the people were worried as they saw their small hero and the young girl that ran after him went in to save someone trapped in the building and when the building caught on fire they became increasingly more worried while the children were hugging on to their parents/guardians looking on in fear and some look away as other people start to pray for their safety but
then the building was collapsing and all gasped in horror at what was happening with the man looked on in horror for has happend as he falls to his knees as the building fully collapsed something was destroyed with it as he started to cry with others also joining him as they lost three people but
"*cough cough cough*"
then they heard couhing coming from behind them as they turn around them shocked because Jaune was right there keeling over coughing but he wasn't alone as on his sides were both the the woman and the girl unconcious and then the boy stood up although weakly with the help of the sword behind him as a crutch he snaps his fingers again but holds it in pain as they were concern they went them and checked for wounds as the were ok for the most part but still injured but Jaune was all out of juice but still asked
"does anyone still have anymore dust?" he weakly asked and the man quickly asked loud reapeating Jaune's words as everyone quickly try to see if they have anymore dust on them but...no they don't but as they were feeling hopeless a small hand reaches out and shows four small dusts the size of AA batteries
"is..is this enough" said a timid small voice as everyone looked at with curiosity
"where did you get the dust?" the man gentally asked the small girl in curiosty
"umm from my dolly and scroll" she said in which eveyone in unison took out their scrolls looking at them and quickly took out the small dust within them while some were hesitant at first then there were kids that also wante to do something so does that were powered by dust they took them out and put it in a pile infront of Jaune as Jaune looks in shock and was feeling moved and as weak and tired he felt he began to stand up straight and began absorbing the small pile of dust and as he did it felt different somehow it's as if he could feel the emotion with does crystals every negative emotion and positive but now it feels as if it was carrying something else something more...warm and he was able to figure out what the feeling was
"hope" he mutterd to himself and looking to the two people unconcious "is it enough to heal them"as someone from the crowd but Jaune heard him and instead of telling him
*snap*
*snap*
he decided to show him as green lights was absorbed by the two and as all injuries were gone with the man desperatly holding on to his wife which has a tail on her as he listens to her chest hearing her heart beat as he begins to cry in relief and Jaune smiles at the sight but then remembered his sisters were suppose to be here as he frenticlly looks around to find them but they weren't there and one of the people saw this and went to the boy
"is everything alright?" asked the man
"no i'm looking for my sisters but what happened here?" Jaune said and asked
"well bandits did appear here as they said they were looking for someone and when they a family they threatend them with killing someone in the room and took some women and children hostage and they left somewhere headed north" said the man and Jaune left but if Jaune saw the couple he helped he would have seen that when the man moved the womans belly was stiking out
-flashback end-
as he runs past the corpses he then sees two people fighting
(I don't own snow white with red hair and Marcus is black hair and Gideon is white hair i forgot their names)
(also from here on out i'm going to shorten the fighting scenes and speed through them I want to finish this part already and want to start with the actual good stuff hope you understand cause this chapter is long as it is and want to get this over with)
as he was about to go and help his father a woman stands in his way and she raises her sword towards him
"sorry can't let you pass"
and Jaune summons the sword ready to fight not detered and without warning he ran towards the woman and jumped and swong his sword down as he said thought of the move as [Braver] and the swing was so powerful that it got the woman to her knee and without losing his momentum he was able to unarm her with her katana which shocked her greatly and in tandum sweep her leg catching her of guard and falling on her back and all of this happend in less than a minute as she wasnow at the other end of her sword
"well this is emberrasing" said Vernal
as the two turned to see Venral with Magenta as a hostage putting a sword on her neck
"get away from boss right now and she won't get hurt"
"boss?"
"Vernal" said Raven in a warning tone to shut up but she didn't understand
"yeah shes the boss of this tribe fuckface"
"oumdamn idiot" said Raven as then they all felt a chill going down their spines as they see Jaune
his lifeless looking eyes almost empty it was a look that a kid shouldn't make
"it was you" he said in a chilling calm voice as the sword was cenemeters from her neck as her aura starts flickering as she looks in to his eyes as she sees that this is the day she dies and it didn't matter what happens next because she knew she'll be killed by a kid no less
"why?" he asked her as she looks at him not saying anything at first
"why did you do this?" he asked again with his anger slightly showing and she just thought screw it
"because the weak die and the strong survive"
"bull.shit"
"huh?"
"bullshit if you think that way then you would have been dead long before now you wouldn't be here alive, we wouldn't be here alive the grimm would have won way before we were born and all life would have been extinct didn't you have people or someone by your side to guard your back or whenever you fall someone was there to pick you right back up when you felt despair their has to have been someone to give you hope did you ever love someone so much that you would put yourself into harms way so that the person, the people you love so much that you don't want them to suffer is all of that weakness and if so what is strength because to me you can be weakest person in remnant and still become strong just because your weak doesn't mean you aren' strong, the strong should protect the weak so they can become strong to be able to face things that they fear cause only cowards run and hide and lie to them selves that things when they are the weak ones"Jaune said in passionet tone
and some of these words were resinating within Raven as a memory of her brother, then a memory of a woman in a white hood then a man with shaggy blonde hair and light blue eyes and lastly a little girl with long hair and lilac eyes and a look of curiosity
"tch and what of it why would that matter to you" she snarked at the boy
"I don't know but it would show me that a better you is still there but if it doesn't matter to you anymore then this is it for you " he said as he pulls back the katana ready to strike
"hey fuck face what-" Vernal was cut of when she was hit in the face by Magenta by the back of her head in which she let her go in pain
then Jaune thrusts the katana towards her as everything slowed down as Raven then sees her sword slowly going towards her as her she starts to think
'is this how it ends like a dog being put down like some dangerous animal when, when did it...' as memories of her dark upbringing and when looking back she really does care for the life she lived and those small little moments of light when she and her brother qrow took care of eachotherto whenshe first became a member of team STRQ to when then when she kissed Tai in a sunset to when she figured she was pregnant with Yang and lastly when she was hold Baby Yang while smiling 'ah I see in the end... i was always weak wasn't I...I'm sorry' as then she closed her eyes prepared for the punishment then heard
Shing
with the sound of earth being destroyed so she opened her eyes as she sees her sword right imbedded into the ground right next to face mask as it chipped off abit of it as the boy standing a good distance away as she sits up
and she looks back at the boy in confusion
"why?" she asked him
"*sigh* cause im tired of killing it's all just stupid why do all of this"
"you would have avenged those we killed" said Raven
"would they want us to lose our selves for vengence to be somebody that we don't know anymore it's all so stupid cause you will only lose more than you already lost" Jaune in annoyance as he then starts to walk past her then went into a sprint but was to late as in horror saw his father sitting down on a Wall lifelessly as he could hear his heartbeat in his ears
as he slowly walks up to his father as he pushes him lightly but he didn't reasponed and again he lightly shakes him yet still nothing as he starts to breath heavily, struggling to breath as he looks at his fathers face like he's sleeping peacefully hoping to oum that this is a horrible nightmare as then deciede to hold on to his fathers lifeless body as he hugs it tightly he knew that this was reality and as Magenta showed up and gasped in horror as her dad sat lifelessly but seeing Jaune hugging him was breaking her heart as tears threatend to cry
"Jau-" as she was about to call to him he screamed in pain a scream that would quickly brake anyone into tears for the boy and a scream that would haunt Magenta for the rest of her life as she stood there not knowing what to do but cry as their father dying but then they hear footsteps as Jaune looks to see Mercury as he looks at him as he also is crying but then shocked them with what he did
he hugged Jaune as the boy kept crying as the soul screaming in pain felt wrong even for him as Mercury he looks at Gideon in keeping his promise that he said he'll keep
-Timeskip few weeks later -
a funeral was set for all the por soul that died during this incident by some miracle only 15 had died in the attack as Jaune looks down at the grave of his father with his eyes looking as they are losing the same shine they once had someone walked up to him but he didn't bother to turn around as a girl walks up
"um excuse me your that boy right that saved my mom right" she said but Jaune didn't answer but the girl didn't mind
"I would like to say thank you for saving me and my family and i'm sorry for your loss"she said and by that one action more followed as a big group of people were thanking him those of older people to the kids calling him a 'hero'
a small light to his eyes returned but not fully but he felt like he doesn't deserve to be called a hero because he couldn't save the person that mattered most
but then a female fanus walked up to him
"i'm sorry if this seems like a bad time but I would like to thank you for saving me and-" before she could finish her sentence a small yawn was heard as he sees a small bundle in her arm as it looks like the baby just woke up from it's nap looking around
"oh it seems he woke up" as she tries to rock the baby to sleep she sees Jaune looking at the baby
"the night you saved it wasn't only me that you save little cub"as Jaune is looking at the baby she had an idea
"would you like to carry him?" she asked Jaune which surprised him but hestently nods as she carefully lets Jaune carry the baby Jaune with his one free hand was trying boop the baby at the nose but instead the babies small hand grabbed his finger and started laughing
and for some reason
he started to cry as he gentally hugged the baby
as the boy was crying and sniffing and then returned the baby to the woman and in since his dad died
Jaune was able to smile like the sun was rising
"thank you"
