Mercenary Arc

prologue

(PAST)

Jaune Arc, kept moving, he was running from the Grimm, it had been a few weeks since Cardin had let out his secret, everyone in Beacon had become hateful, even his team, Ruby had tried to avoid him under all costs, Weiss had scorned him and been even more of a bitch than usual, Blake had been quite indifferent, Yang had threatened to kill him if he came anywhere close to Ruby, Ren had been more neutral with Nora, Pyrrha hadn't spoken to him, heck the team didn't even let him in there room, he had to sleep in one of the toilet stalls, in training battles, people had tried to kill him, luckily Ms. Goodwitch had been there to save him, Ozpin told them that he kept Jaune because he saw that he could be a very powerful huntsman.

Jaune decided he had enough, so he waited to confront Cardin, he smiled at the memory of Cardin asking 'what are you looking at?' as he smashed his face into the mirror in the bathroom and began to run, he was done with Beacon, he didn't belong there so he had took his sword and shield and ran, he had run for a month now, he didn't take his scroll they could just track him with that, anyhow he had stumbled on a town that was being attacked by Grimm.

though he didn't want to be a huntsman anymore he still stepped in to help the people, the bullheads had gotten them out but left him behind, Jaune had ditched his shield and sword for a rifle, he'd rather face them with something he could use, he had held out well enough but now he was on the run, he had run out of ammo.

But just as he thought that 'this was it' he saw something a small structure, it looked to be some dome, he quickly pulled the door open and forced it shut, he lit up a glow stick he kept in his pocket, but the only thing in the room was a metal protrusion that stuck out of the ground, Jaune guided by curiosity touched it and the whole room lit up, it soon dimmed again, but then many bright lights began to illuminate the room and then they became holograms of planets, a planet then shone in front of him he assumed it was Remnant looking at it, he sighed in awe, this was enough to make him cry just looking at it, he wanted to stay here forever, he wanted to die here, it was just a very nice comfort from the last month.

''it's beautiful in hear'' Jaune sighed looking longingly at all the planets that were in the room, many of them looked stunning, while some of them looked very ugly, Jaune looked all around

Jaune turned as he heard something the Grimm were breaking through ''Dammit'' said Jaune turning towards the portal and shrugged and said ''might as well'' before jumping into the portal.

(PRESENT)

Locus shot up from where he was resting sweating. after calming down he looked to his side, grabbed his helmet and looked at the front of it.

Locus: "Jaune Arc, haven't heard that name in a long time, I almost forgot that name."

Get up he left the ruins of a building he was resting in. Looking at the landscape in front of him brought more memories back to him. memories he did not want to remember.

(PAST)

Jaune looked around, at least he was still alive, but where was he, he looked around but what he saw confirmed he wasn't on Remnant, the environment didn't look anything like Remnant, he stood up the he heard someone shout.

''HANDS UP!''

Jaune quickly threw his hands up and dropped the rifle he was holding ''HOLD YOUR FIRE, HOLD YOUR FIRE!'' he cried.

''what is it?'' asked one of them likely the CO

''it's a civilian sir'' said one of the soldiers.

''y-yeah I'm not a soldier'' said Jaune dropping his gun.

''what are you doing out hear civilian this is a war zone, illegal to enter'' said another soldier.
