"-After a long and audacious legal battle, Jaune Arc has been declared Not Guilty on account of the finalization of Beacon Academy's rules and regulations. There have been many of debates surrounding the case both in and out of court on what exactly makes a Student eligible when attending a Huntsman Academy."

—

"-Without a doubt in my mind, sure he completed initiation but he still cheated his way in, it's obvious that he's not able to keep up with the other students from what I've seen in that trial. There were better applicants who could've took his spot-"

"Our top story today is concerning one Beacon Academy Student, Jaune Arc." A Valian News Reporter had said, a picture of the student transitioning into the screen. "Following his trial where he had been declared Not Guilty, Beacon Academy Headmaster, Ozpin had allowed himself to be interview about Jaune's status. Both as a student and as a future Huntsman despite Mr. Arc's false transcripts."

—

"-Mistralian Champion, Pyrrha Nikos had refused to comment on the status of her Beacon team Juniper (JNPR), neither would their so called sister team Team Ruby (RWBY), as it has been confirmed that Jaune Arc had been noticeably absent from-"

—

"-Vale a body had been found in the early morning last Friday night. With tragedy comes a truth not many expected as Dio Brando who was found dead that fateful morning. Who acted as Jaune Arc's Lawyer, was in actuality his brother as confirmed by the Arc Family."

—

"-out of respect for the family no comment had been made or accepted concerning the Arc family situation as they are still in mourning for the lost of their family members-"

"When was this picture taken anyway?" A guest speaker asked the T.V. Show Host as they looked at a picture of Jaune Arc walking down the street.

"Believe it or not this was taken just a day ago."

"You're kidding." The Guest had said with some incredulity.

"I wish I was."

"But his brother's funeral was yesterday, so you're telling me he was missing his own brother's, the very same brother that save him from legal troubles mind you, funeral?" The Guest had ask causing the Show Host to shake his head.

"Believe me when I say I was just as surprised as anyone else would be. I can't imagine missing it and walking in town so casually, I mean of course everyone is going to notice. The Arc Family has been one of the long standing families in Remnant's history, almost as important as The Schnee's."

"Terrible, absolutely terrible." Was all the Guest would say as the program went into commercials soon after.

It was a chance encounter, an unarmored and unarmed Jaune Arc had found himself at a bar after a week of terrible circumstances that followed one after another. As the music blared across the building he stared at his glass cup filled with a red liquid.

He thought about his friends and teammates who now knew who he really was. Jaune Arc, the soon to be adult was a liar. A failed student who forged his transcripts to get accepted into Beacon Academy.

Secondly, the girl that he liked was named Weiss Schnee, and she had absolutely hated the fact that he cheated his way into the Academy. Then it seemed like his own teammates had started to grow distant from him. Sometimes he would believe that he was unwanted when around them.
