Jaune and co have arrived back in Vale, back in the south of Vale to be more precise. Mercuy and Sienna along with the all of the White Fang had followed Jaune as well.
Weiss, Neo, Jaune, Neptune, Arslan, Mercury, Sienna, Nora, Penny, Whitley, Maria, Ren, Flynt, Neon and Ilia are eating at a table. Weiss looks at the meat on her fork with a bit of disgust. she looks to Jaune, Mercury, and Sienna as they eat vigorously. Penny looks around at them and sees Mercury stareing intently at her. Penny raises and eyebrow but smiles. Mercury smiles bakc. Jaune notices their interactions.
a waiter saw how Weiss looking at her food and smiled "Sorry about the food, It's taste better then it looks"
"That's all right. There are more important things" Weiss said
they all finished eating, Weiss then looked to Jaune
"so, what's your plan?" She asked him
Before answering, Jaune took a drink of his water and looked to Weiss.
"There are still houses that are loyal to House Arc, I know for a fact that House Church will support us if we ask them, House Caboos will defintely help, they've always been good friens with the Arc's, House Washington, House Tucker, and House Grif are the ones we need to worry about" Jaune told her
"what about asking Yang?" Mercury asked
"It won't work" Arslan told him "Yang's Airships can't fly over here or they'll be shot down, and they can't go around it'll take to long"
"so we're on our own" Flynt sighed
Jaune nodded and looked to Ren, Neon, and Neo
"Ren, I want you to head to house Locust and see if they will help us, Weiss and Whitley will head to House Washington, Neo will head to House Caboose and me and Flynt will head to House Church" Jaune said
they all agreed, Mercury and Sienna then turned to Jaune,
"what do you want us to do?" Sienna asked
"For now we'll stick togethor" Jaune told her "alright lets go everyone"
Everyone left the table and did what Jaune asked them to do.
Weiss and Whitley chased after Lord Washington
"please lord Washington we need to talk about this more! Couldn't we make a deal?" Weiss asked
"No Deals! Theres nothing else to say!" Lord Washington told them
then Weiss pulled on his hand and he turned around "I would remind you that House Washington is pledged to House Arc. Sworn to answer when called upon!" Weiss yelled
Lord Washington pulled his hand away quickly and looked at the two
"Yes, my family served House Arc for centuries. We wept when we heard of Jonathan's death" Lord Washington said
He then pointed at a portrait of his brother "When my brother was lord of this castle, he answered Katelyn's call and hailed Her Queen of the Ark's" Washington moved closer to Weiss "and where was Queen Katelyn when the Vale army attacked this castle!? When they threw my wife and children in prison and brutalized and killed our subjects!? She was waiting for her Half-Brother to bring his men! And now your asking me to follow him!?!?" Lord Washington cried
He looked at them with fire in his eyes "he's going to get himself and those who follow him killed..." Lord Washington told them, he sits down and he looked at Weiss and Whitley again but this time with sadness in his eyes
"I served House Arc once...but House Arc is dead" he told them solemnly, and asked them to leave, and the two did...
Jaune and Flynt were at Lady Carolina Churches castle.
"Tell me, Why should I Help you, a Bastard, take back Arktown from Tyrian Callows?" Carolina asked
"I saw the meassgae you sent Queen Cinder My Lady, you said House Church knows no king but the King of the Arks, whose name is Arc, if thats true, My Father told me that I may not have his name, but I have his blood, which males me an Arc" Jaune told her "your Aunt was one of the most Bravest woman I have ever met"
Carolina still looked skeptical
Flynt looked to lady church "Your Aunt, made Jaune commander of the rangers as soon as he arrived" Flynt told her "She chose Jaune to be her successor because she knew that he had the courage to do what was right, even if it meant giving his life. Because Gwen Church and Jaune ARC both understood that the real war isn't between countries....It's between humanity and the dead. And make no mistake, my lady, that they are coming" Flynt told her
Lady Church looked to Jaune
"Is this true?" She asked Jaune
Jaune nodded his head "Your Aunt fought them at Misty Falls. I fought them at Hardhome. We both lost" Jaune told her
she looked to him and looked at Flynt
"I will help your cause, House Church will stand behind House Arc. As we always have" she said with a smile
Jaune smiled back "thank you my lady" Jaune told her and they left.
