The force from Jaune's attack caused the fog to shoot off in every direction, as his fist made contact, Ruby's body turned to ice, leaving Jaune's arm encased in it, Jaune then laughed as he shouted, "Tunnel Vision!"

Nora shouted "Incoming!" as her pink smoke grenades exploded all around the area, Jaune then felt Ren's Semblance run through him and watched as his team received the same benefit of his calming mind technique.

Thanks to Ren's ability, their presence was firmly hidden from Team Ruby's senses, even their perception skill wasn't good enough to help them.

"Whirlwind!" Ruby shouted as Weiss created a Glyph with some wind dust, a timer appeared around Ruby as the rest of her team moved to gather up in a back to back circle.

Ruby began running around them as fast as she could, her speed multiplied by several times caused her to create a small tornado.

The pink smoke cleared up as it gathered around Ruby, mixed with her rose petals falling behind her, created a beautiful scene that was reminiscent of cherry blossoming viewing.

Jaune grinned as he rose his sword hand, "Magnetic Aura Wave!"

A black glow surrounded Jaune's sword, and over that layer, Jaune created a huge sword made of Aura, with Pyrrha protecting his weapon, Jaune could use a technique that was only possible with Grimm's Bane.

"Dust Storm Annihilation!" Ruby shouted as Team RWBY suddenly shot off a bunch of random Dust rounds and watched at the force from the mini-tornado was amplified turning into and elemental hurricane.

Ruby suddenly shot off towards Jaune, behind her was Cresent Rose pulling apart tornado and dragging it through slipstream made by Ruby's Super-Speed Semblance.

Jaune laughed lowered his sword with great speed, Pyrrha used her Ferokinsis to enhance the strength of Jaune's attack causing to swing even faster, fast enough to launch the Aura shot from his blade and create a large wave of energy that split the collided with Ruby's attack.

A large explosion of energy rippled through the air and shook the room, Ruby's attack failed and she was sent flying across the room.

Yang jumped up and grabbed her sister, who's eyes were spinning around circles.

"Yang, avenge me!" Ruby cried out as she acted like she was mortally wounded, Jaune's attack had shattered her Aura but didn't leave a single scratch on Ruby body.

Because Ruby's Aura was in the red, so she was already out of the match, but Ruby played the fallen Demon Lord part until the end, Yang gripped her hands and wailed out, "Noo!"

Yang's Aura flared up and her hair began to glow, she turned to Jaune and charged towards him, "Vengence for my sister!" Yang shouted.

Jaune then shouted, "Nora, Ren, Pyrrha! Take care of Weiss and Blake, I hold..."

Jaune was cut off by Yang's punch, not having the time to continue his order, Jaune jumped off the ground and took the full brunt of Yang's attack, Yang was surprised to see that he had dispersed all her strength and landed on the ground only a couple of feet away.


The rest of Team Juniper continued to follow Jaune's orders and began to take down the rest of Team RWBY.

Pyrrha handles Weiss, who had summoned two large Armored Knights to her side, Nora laughed joyously as she slammed her hammer against the knights and launched grenades at the other one's face.

Pyrrha had already pinned Wiess to the ground and disarmed her before placing her rifle against the back of her skull, "Do you yield!"

Wiess sighed and placed her hands up, "I surrender."

Blake was doing her best to fight against Ren, the two exchanged countless blows and each of them came close to shattering each other's Aura's however, once Pyrrha and Nora joined in, she had no choice but to surrender.

Yang was having the time of her life, finally, she had someone to throw fists at, Jaune did his best to doge everyone of her punches, it didn't take Yang long before her frustration started to get to her.

"Hold still and let me punch you!" Yang shouted as Jaune ducked under her fist.

"And end up as a splat on the wall like some avant-garde art, no thanks! My name is Jaune Clancy Ark, not Jaune Wall Art." Jaune said as he saw the moment he was waiting for, Yang had lost focus of her Semblance and went out of her rage because she laughed at his bad pun, Jaune took this time to trip Yang's feet and place her in an arm lock while placing himself behind her in a single swift movement.

"No damage, no power boost, you should watch out for grapplers and people who focus on immobilization techniques in the future," Jaune said as he pointed his sword to the back of Yang's neck.

Yang sighed, "Vomit Knight beat me!"

The crowd watching them suddenly burst into cheers, "That match was amazing!"

"Holy crap, do we have to compete against that!?" Another Beacon Student said as he fell into his seat.

Glynda walked up and said, "Very good, both of your teams have shown excellent progress, more so than any other team in the school, please continue to train hard, and not let this go to your heads."

Team JNPR and Team RWBY shouted, "Yes Ma'am!"

Ruby then smiled as she shouted, "I'm fighting on Jaune's team next time!"

Yang grinned, and like the sister that she was, she couldn't resist teasing her about Jaune, "I see how it is, you like Jaune better than your own team!"

Ruby blushed and shouted, "Not, uh! I just want...to team up with...Jaune because y...y...y you guys already had your turns fighting on his team!" Ruby then turned into a blur as she ran out of the stadium.

Jaune laughed as he saw her embarrassed expression, for a split second he forgot that they weren't married yet, in his moment of weakness, Jaune gave her the same expression that he used to when they were together.

Yang couldn't help but notice this, her smile reached her ears as she thought, "Well, well, it isn't one-sided! This is gonna be so much fun!"

Jaune looked over his team and nodded his head, he had helped them train up a bit, and already the progress was showing, he looked over to where Ruby had run away and thought, "I guess future knowledge could be used like this. It's a lot easier to train in the ways they trained themselves."

Later that night, everyone was having a good time when Jaune decided to look over his skills.

He was interested that all the skills were pretty self-explanatory, only three skills had a white glow around them, profession, perform, and craft, drive, and knowledge.

After poking on Craft, Jaune saw a sub-screen pop up that had a list of things he knew how to craft.

There was Food, Clothing, Metallurgy, Blueprints, Art, Mechanics Weapons, Shield, and Armor.

Jaune then noticed the same white outline on some of his craft listings, poking the food icon, Jaune saw all of the recipes he had memorized written down in a listing of its own, the same thing happened when he clicked on the rest of the skills, each of them showing a list of what he knew how to make, or which subjects he had knowledge of.

As he experimented with his System, Weiss suddenly shouted, "Yes!" and made a victorious fist-pumping gesture.

She was reading over something on her scroll, apparently, she had managed to sell off 100 pounds of Moon Dust through her Sister's contacts.

Weiss had made quite an impact on delivering a decent amount of her Moon Dust to her company, she made sure to let her sister handle the business so that she could make some money off of it and use them on her skills.

And like Weiss predicted she made around 600 Million Lien off of two auctions, she spent most of the money on balancing out her skills, she had most of them at level 6 and a few at 7.

Ruby had also made a small fortune and became a millionaire overnight, then immediately poured all of her money into her skills, mostly in craft, she spent a million on her craft skill, bringing it up to level 6.

Another good chunk of the remaining funds was spent bringing the remaining skills up to level 4, while a few hundred thousand Lien was saved in case she needed to purchase any parts for her future weapon; and cookies of course.

Jaune made sure to spend time with everyone in the team, he even managed to join, Blake's and Ruby's book swapping club.

He finished his daily studies and joined the two as they talked about what they liked, and their thoughts on the book.

Although Jaune had already read most of these books from his time being married to Ruby, he didn't mind reading them again, he even acted like a know it all when it came to the plot and made a bet with Blake that if the next book matched up with his predictions, that she would tell everyone a secret.

Ruby laughed and said, "I don't know, Jaune could have just read the books ahead of time and lied about it, I think he's bluffing!"

"Fine, but if I win, you have to share that comic you've been working on," Blake said with a grin.

Ruby looked to Jaune, who's shoulders jumped as she said, "You're working on a comic!? Can I see it?!"

Jaune shook his head and said, "Nope! I don't know what you are talking about, but I will take that bet!"

Ruby saw that Jaune avoided her question and puffed her cheeks up, "Don't change the subject, I wanna see it!"

Jaune turned around and said, "It's in my inventory, and it's not done!" He was writing down his previous life's experiences and showing in comic form, he figured he should use a guide to let them in on the hidden war, and even use it to ease them the truth someday.

The characters were based on them and the real events that took place, during their time together, he added everything he could that Ruby informed him on during the time they were separated, and everything team JNR experience away from Team RWBY, Jaune made sure not to lie, or leave out any of his embarrassing moments.

Ruby tried to use her puppy dog pout, and like always Jaune caved in, "I promise that when It's done, I will let you be the first one to read it."

Ruby smiled and said, "Promise!"

Jaune nodded his head in defeat, "Promise."

Blake gave a chuckle as she went back to reading her book, she couldn't believe how close she was becoming with everyone, Jaune seemed to be helping it along as well, when they had a fight, he would play mediator with Ruby, and he always seemed to know just what to say, she was even beginning to think he knew them longer than they did.

"Something funny?" Ruby asked.

"I was just thinking of how Jaune seems to know so much, he even helped us improve our combat skills, when he teaches it almost like he's thinking in a way that's perfect for us individually; almost like we came up with the training ourselves," Blake answered.

"I know, I thought the same thing, there have been times when I was thinking about naming a team-technique something, and Jaune would read my mind and come up with it before I could say it," Ruby responded.

"It's almost like he's seen the future?" Blake said as she tilted her head.

The two huntresses looked at one another before shaking their heads and saying, "Nah!" at the same time.

They went to bed that night without any problems, Jaune really missed this, sleeping without worrying about someone or some Grimm tying kill you, the best thing though was the view, Jaune only needed to look to his side and see his future wife sleeping in peace.
