bandit king

In the desert of Vacuo, there is a small city that is infamous for housing nothing but criminals, ranging from bandits, thieves and even killers. Because of the majority of the city's residents being criminals, the city goes by the suitable name, Capital of Thieves. There is no police authority within the city as they have been thrown out years ago. Now, the Capital of Thieves is under the control of Mayor Cognac who runs the city with his endless riches and army of thugs.

"No police authority whatsoever? It must be complete anarchy" said Ironwood, disliking the thought of an entire city being run by criminals. Why would anyone want to live in a city that's under the control of criminals?

Roman smirks at the idea. "Sounds like my type of city." Neo's smirk shows that she's in agreement with him, knowing that if such a city does exist, Roman would find himself on the very top pretty fast.

Recently, the city has gotten even more populated as hundreds of bandits and thieves enter the Kingdom with the sole purpose of stealing Mayor Cognac's biggest treasure, the Double Mermaids. There are even rumors that the Bandit King himself is going to show up for the chance to steal the Double Mermaids.

Raven's head perks up when she hears that someone is known as the Bandit King. Being known as the Bandit Queen herself, she would honestly like to meet the person who can fill the big shoes of her counterpart.

"You think that Jaune is this Bandit King?" asked a grinning Nora.

Blake shakes her head. "Doubtful. This universe is suppose to show an unhinged version of Jaune. I don't think Jaune could be a Bandit King if he's unhinged, if only by a little bit.

"You don't know that" replied Nora, puffing her cheeks out in annoyance. Fearless leader can be anything he wants when he puts his mind to it! If he wants to be Bandit King, he can be Bandit King!

And far out in the distance of the Kingdom is Jaune Arc, smiling and basking in the heat of Vacuo. His blue trenchcoat flutters against the cooling wind as a crow latches itself to his shoulder.

Qrow blinks when he sees the crow on Jaune's shoulder, easily recognizing it. How can he not recognize it when he can turn into that very same bird whenever he wants. A quick glance shows him that Ozpin, Glynda, Ironwood and even Raven are thinking the exact same thing. "I honestly wouldn't be surprised if a few of these universes showed everyone something that Ozpin would prefer to be kept secret."

"Didn't think it was possible, but Vomit boy can work a trenchcoat" complimented Yang, admitting that Jaune looks pretty good in one. She just might get one for his birtday, just to see what he looks like in one.

Once he enters the city, Jaune and his crow look around, finding themselves in the marketplace.

"City of thieves, huh? Nothing but scoundrels and low lives" said the crow, surprising a few nearby passerbys when they hear the animal speak.

"Uncle Qrow is a talking bird!" laughed Ruby while pointing at the screen. Yang copies her younger sister and starts laughing as well, recognizing the bird's voice as the same as their uncle's

A tick mark starts to grow in the corner of Qrow's skull, finding his nieces laughing a little bit insulting to his pride. "I bet they wouldn't be laughing if they knew that I can actually turn into a bird."

Ozpin sighs in relief. At first, he was worried that the people around him would learn of secrets he would like to keep hidden, but it seems like nobody is taking any actual heed, believing that it's only based in the universe they're watching. "That's a lot off my mind."
