The Hardhome Faunas are being escorted through Fort Petra. Jon and Ilia stood next to each other with Sienna and Mercury next to them

"It was a failure..." Jaune sighed

"It wasn't Jaune, you have to Believe that" Ilia told him

Jaune looked at her, his eyes still jad that sense of dread after Hardhome

"I went to save them, I failed! Most of them became hybrids! I failed" Jaune told them

"You didn't fail him" Sienna began pointing at a father with a baby in his arms "or him, or her. Every one of them is alive because of you, and no one else"

"I don't think that fact's lost on them" Jaune said looking to Blake and Fennec.

Fennec then walked down to Jaune and stood next to him. Fennec glared to Mercury and Sienna bit then looked to Jaune

"You have a good heart Jaune Black" Fennec began and Jaune looked to him "It'll get us all killed"




Jaune was in his room taking a nap. He had a dream about hearing His stepmother Elizabeth praying. Praying to make him die. To go away forever. the flashes of the attack on Beacon had hit Jaune and that's when he saw all his loved ones die.

that's when everything went white. he looked around and just saw white.

"Jaune" said a voice all too familiar

Jaune turned to see the first woman he had ever loved. Vernal. She stood there, still as beutiful as he remembered. He ran to her and hugged her. she felt as real as he remembered he broke the hug and looked into her eyes. Those crystal blue eyes.

"is this real?" Jaune asked with sadness in his voice

Vernal grabbed the side's of his face and and made him look at her.

"it's real Jaune, I promise" Vernal replied

Jaune began to cry and he fell to his knees. still crying. Vernal slowly kneeled to him and hugged him.

"I'm Sorry! I'm so sorry! I couldn't save you and I made you think I was going to leave you! while you were dying!" Jaune cried

Vernal held him tighter. "Jaune, I know you were never going to leave me, I know how much you loved me. Don't worry Jaune. we'll be togethor soon..." Vernal said

Jaune was confused, but he didn't care. he didn't care what it meant. all he cared about was seeing vernal again.




Jaune woke up, he looked around but there was no Vernal. Jaune went to his desk and sat down and saw some papers on his desk. It was dark and everyone had went to bed, so he could work without interuptions. Jaune goes through the various Paperwork for new Mounted gun and dust supplie on his desk. Without warning Blake burst into the office.

"Jaune! Theres a Faunas here that said they may know where your uncle is!" Blake cried

Jaune stood up "Are you sure!?" Jaune cried

"Says he was the first Ranger! He knows where to find him!" Blake cried

Jaune rushed out of his room down to the ground. There waiting are Fennec, Corsac and Sarge

"said he saw your uncle at Hardhome about a week ago" Sarge told Jaune

"He could be lying" Jaune told him

"Could be. There are ways to find out" Fennec told Jaine

"Where is he?" Jaune asked

"Over there, by the tree" Fennec told him.

Jaune walked to the tree past the three of them. But when he arrived he only saw a sign that had the words 'TRAITOR' on it

Jaune turned to the four them with a questioned look and then he felt a sharp pain in his stomach.

Fennec had stabbed him.

"For the Fang" Fennec told Jaune

Fennec then removed his dagger and moved away from Jaune. Corsac then walked up to Jaune and stabs him.

"For the Fang" Corsac told Jaune

Jaune stumbled away from them and staggered to his office. Then Sarge stabbed him

"For the Fang" Sarge said

Jaune slowly went to went up the stairs only to be met with Blake

"Blake..." Jaune said

Blake stabbed Jaune in the heart. She had tears in her eyes and when she saw the fear and hurt in Jaunes eyes. She knew she had made a mistake.

"For the Fang" Blake told him and she pushed him down the stairs.

Jaune coughed up blood and crawled away from them. But Fennec turned Jaune over and stabbed him again. Jaune looked up to the stary bright sky. 

"Vernal... I'm coming home..." Jaune said softly.

And those were the last words Jaune Black would Ever speak...
