The Knight of the Grimm (Awaiting Rewrite)

The Aftermath Of the Fall

11 months ago:

Ruby woke up to see Yang and Blake sat next to her bed. She then shook Yang's arm and the Blonde haired girl woke up in a startle, She regained herself and looked to see Ruby was wide awake.

"RUBY!" Yang yelled

Yang hugged her sister and woke up Blake at the same time, Blake saw Ruby awake and joined in the hug, and Tai, having heard his daughter scream ran in to see his daughter awake as well and he joined in as well

"Guys! I can't breath!" Ruby cried

they all moved back quickly and looked to Ruby. Ruby looked back to them,

"what happened?" Ruby asked

Yang looked down in sadness, "well, you did something to that Dragon Grimm, whatever you did stopped it..." Yang said

Ruby then remembered everything that happened on the tower

"what about Pyrrha!? is she ok!?" Ruby asked

Blake and Yang looked down in sadness, "she's gone, Ruby..."  Yang told her sister

Ruby looked down in sadness, "what about Ozpin? Saffron? what happened to them?" Ruby asked

"No one can find a trace of him, so he's most likely dead, and Saffron headed to Vacuo to speak with their headmaster about something, Glynda as well as Vale itself are putting beacon back together, so far, no Grimm have attacked the school despite that Dragon is a signal for all Grimm a hundred miles" Tai told Ruby

"I actually was the cause of that..." Blake said

Ruby turned to her as did Yang and Tai, "what do you mean Blake?" Ruby asked

"After the Fall, I asked Jaune's mom to swear in Ms. Goodwitch as well as asked them to help rebuild Beacon as well as defend it from any other pack of Grimm," Blake said

Tai looked confused, "wait, a pack of Grimm is helping Glynda build Beacon? why? is that your semblance?" Tai asked

"No" Blake replied "I'm part of their pack, thanks to Jaune"

"and who's this Jaune guy?" Tai asked

"Jaune Grimm, The kid that could turn into Grimm. Dad I had told you about him after the breach" Yang said,

"wait, are you talking about Saffron's brother?" Tai asked

"Yeah, how did you know that?" Ruby asked

"Saffron was one of my students while you girls were growing up, She was also accepted into Beacon at a Young age, way Younger then Ruby even," Tai said,

"how old?" Blake asked

"I say around 11? it wasn't surprising considering who her family was," Tai said

"what do you mean? Why was it not surprising?" Yang asked

Tai looked at them with confusion, "wait, Jaune and Saffron didn't tell you about who they were?" Tai asked

all three shook their head no

"Well, the Arcs are a well-known family, in fact, their one of the many families that came from the first men, and maybe even before that..." Tai said

Blake remembered that this was Humanity's second time being on Remnant, Maybe some humans survived the Dark Brothers attack...

"Anyway, they are known also for their unlimited Aura reserves, that's what made them so great and powerful, Their Aura was said to be so huge that realizing all of it could destroy a mountain, but then they all died some years ago..." Tai finished "I knew Saffron's mother, Elisa was a wonderful woman, She was actually raised by Ozpin herself"

Blake then wondered, was it possible that the Arc Family still had magic? If Ozpin and Salem still had it could others have it as well? 'but why did they also have such powerful Aura that caused a legend like that?' Blake thought

A couple of days passed, Yang was training with her dad, as Blake was off getting Ren and Nora for Ruby. Blake was the only one that Ruby had told about her secret mission, Leaving Tai and Yang in the dark for one reason for each of them. Tai wouldn't want his daughter to fight again, but Ruby needed to, so she could avenge both Jaune and Pyrrha. Yang was already planning on leaving wanting to look for her mother, Raven, and Ruby didn't want to add any more anxiety for her sister.

Present-day:

Ruby and Blake were looking for places where they could get information about the Grimm cult, hoping to get a lead. They two entered a restaurant/bar and they walked to the bar, hoping the bartender would have some information.

The Bartender looked up to them as they sat down, "what can I get for you?" He asked

"just a beer please" Blake said

The bartender nodded and looked to Ruby, "and you miss?" he asked

"no thanks, I'll have some fries and a shake though" Ruby responded

the man nodded and place Ruby's order and then gave Bake her beer. Blake took a sip of it and then looked to the Bartender

"have you heard anything about that Grimm cult?" Blake asked

The bartender looked to her, "Yeah, had someone one yesterday come here and told me that the Grimm-Walker killed the cult leader's Brother yesderday across the Enclosed sea" The man replied

Blake pearked at the name, "Grimm-Walker?" She asked "who's that?"

He looked to them as if they were stupid, "you not from Mistral? cause everyone knows who the Grimm-Walker is"

"We're from Vale and just arrived about two weeks ago" Ruy said "so who is this Grimm-Walker"

"Rumor has it that the Grimm walker came here before the Fall, Making a name for himself by killing off any gangs that hurt the innocent, even bringing Mistrals Underground Crime world to it's knees and thats not the half of it! Some people say they've seen him turn into Grimm"

At that very moment, the two's heart dropped. Someone that could turn into Grimm... just like Jaune...

Blake handed the bartender money before walking out, Ruby did the same and chased after Blake

"Blake!" Ruby yelled "what are you doing!?" Ruby said

"I'm heading over to the other side of the bridge!" Blake said as she continued to walk faster

"Blake Stop!" Ruby cried

Blake just kept on walking and Ruby tried to catch up with her

"Blake!" Ruby cried again

But the faunas girl just kept walking, Ruby was falling behind and knew what this was about, of course she knew, she to also thought the same, But she knew the truth.

"HE'S DEAD BLAKE!" Ruby cried out

Blake stopped in her tracks.

"JAUNE IS DEAD! H-HE'S NEVER COMING BACK!" Ruby cried out, it pained the Reaper to say that, as she to had somehow hoped the Blonde was still alive. But he was dead, and he was never coming back.

Blake turned to her with tears in her eyes, "I still can't... I still can't believe he's gone..." Blake cried

Ruby looked to her teammate and she began to cry

"I know Blake... it's still hard to wrap my head around... but Jaune is dead... and I hate it so much, I hate that he won't be around, I hate that he's gone because of Cinder... I hate myself for not being a better friend..." Ruby said

The two girls still felt sadness in their hearts. Sadness that the Blonde knight was never coming back.

"Ruby... even if it's not Jaune, we should still check it out... He may be someone that we could use" Blake said

Ruby whipped her tears away and nodded, "yeah, I'll ask the bartender if he remembers which town and we'll head there" Ruby said

Blake nodded as her team leader ran back into the bar. Blake still sat there with tears falling, she just wanted to tell the Blonde how much he meant to her and how much she had changed thanks to him, but she would never get that chance...
