The Paladin and their Succubus Frenemy - 5 Pt.1

Early in the morning, as Ruby was sleeping soundly in her new bed, she was rudely awakened by the large pounding of one of her teammates. If she had to guess on who, it'd be the...short redhead one...what's her name again?

Dwarf Nora: Ruby? RUBY! It's Nora, time to get up~! We're needed by Priestess Glynda!

Ruby: W-Whuh? Why?

Dwarf Nora: IT'S IMPORTANT NOW GET UP BEFORE I BUST DOWN THIS DOOR!

Ruby: Right, right! I'm getting dressed now!

Ruby sighed to herself about the immediate wakeup call from her teammate but sucked it up. If she'd want her stay among their ranks to be permanent, then she'd have to act the part and be ready for anything they go through. Even if that means saying goodbye to her precious beauty sleep, although she doesn't need it to gain Jaune's affection anyhow~.

Ruby took some time to stretch out her wings and claws, as she then retracts them back as if they weren't shown at all. Within due time, she got dressed in her standard outfit, putting on some basic armor on top of it, and put on some arm braces in quick haste and exited her bedroom. As she ran through the hallway towards the living room, she saw her team already waiting for her.

Jaune was in his usual Paladin armor, a iron like chest piece with arm and leg bracing strapped tightly on him. He held his shield in one hand and sword sheathed but ready for combat. Ruby had to admit it made him look more hotter when he was in this than his regular hoodie with a knitted bunny pattern on it. Although, both made him more adorable~.

Pyrrha was decked out and had a serious look on her face, wearing an iron type of gladiator wear with some stitched in cloth around some lining. She held onto her spear tightly in one hand and her shield in the other.

Ren was getting done wrapping his hands in wrap while Ruby saw one set of light green daggers besides him. He was also dressed in cloth clothing with flower petals stitched onto the center. Ruby had to admit, the petals were a nice touch.

Non-biased opinion of course...

As for Nora, she was rocking a lamellar helm with some armor matching it. However, she also wore a secondary layer of quilted cloth that was underneath the lamellar. Once she was done dressing up, she grasped a large hammer in both of her hands, before yelling out some war cry? Ruby couldn't tell as she covered her ears from how loud she screamed.

Paladin Jaune: Great, you're here. You're ready to go?

Reaper Ruby: Yep! Just quick question, what's happening? I only got that it's important and we're meeting a Priestess.

Champion Pyrrha: We can't say for sure, but if we're called in together, it certainly isn't bandits this time.

Reaper Ruby: So, demons?

Monk Ren: That is what we're pointing towards at the moment. But let's go to the Priestess first. we can't waste any more time.

Paladin Jaune: Right, c'mon guys! If it is demons, we'll think of a plan on the way.

With the confusion out of the way, the team all rushed out of their dorm and headed straight towards the main area of the Cathedral. Ruby looked around and saw many members of the place, the art on the walls, and of course the stained glass depicting the four heroes. Again, she'd had to admit they we're doing well here. She had to remind herself to 'reward' Jaune on asking her to join their team.

Before she knew it however, they approached a pair of doors guarded by some knights. The knights opened the door, letting the members in one by one. Before Ruby could enter, one of the knights stopped her, raising his sword as she raised her hands up on instinct.

R. Knight: I haven't seen you 'round here. State your rank her!

Reaper Ruby: I'm with them, I swear! I-I'm a new member, ask the leader!

The Knight turned his head towards Jaune who nodded his head back at them. The Knight looked at Ruby intensely as if he was peering into her soul but sheathed his sword and let her pass into the room.

R. Knight: Apologies.

Reaper Ruby: It's okay, I would be paranoid too.

After that brief hiccup, the group arrived into a large room, with many tables and chairs arranged in corners. In the far back was a lone woman, reading a note on her desk as she looked distressed. As she looked up, she saw the team and Ruby approach her. She sighed, taking her attention away from the note and stood up, walking towards them. The five stopped in line, with Ruby stumbling of course that led to a snicker from Nora, and the Priestess stood across from them.

Priestess Glynda: I'm glad you all could make it in short notice, not to mention on your day off as I apologize for. But we've got a note sent to by a scout of a nearby settlement.

Monk Ren: What's the state of the scout?

Priestess Glynda: He is being treated now, but he was severely harmed. It's a miracle he had the strength to endure it, nay, even walk such a distance for our help.

Paladin Jaune: Poor guy...

Priestess Glynda: Indeed. I'll cut to the main problem since you all possibly already figured it out on the way here. It is demons, a bulk of them. From what the note said, their warriors and those lending a hand managed to slay a decent chunk of them, but there is still at least 20 more roaming the settlement. They've seeked shelter in a cabin and barricaded it. They don't know how long they can last, and they have some of their fighters severely injured with limited supplies.

The team all stood still as statues as Ruby heard it all intently, trying to remain as professional as possible.

Priestess Glynda: You all know what must happen now, save those poor souls and make sure each of those vile demons is sent with a mark from your weapons.

As the Priestess finished her orders, her gaze peered onto Ruby, who jolted. She walked over to her and stared at her for a reasonable amount of time, making the demoness in disguise scared before she spoke again.

Priestess Glynda: I'm sorry, I don't believe we've met yet. Are you a volunteer adventurer here to help or...?

Paladin Jaune: Actually, she's our brand-new member!

Priestess Glynda: Really?

Reaper Ruby: Uh, yes! I am here to help out with whatever I can. Although, I may not be as efficient as the others, I can still fight!

The Priestess showed a slight smirk towards Ruby but backed away from her, clapping her hands together.

Priestess Glynda: Well, that's just wonderful to hear we still have some people not in it for money nor fame to help save others. I welcome you to our ranks. What is your name?

Reaper Ruby: Ruby, Ruby Rose ma'am.

Priestess Glynda: Well, I hope you survive your first mission. It'd be a shame to lose such a bright spirit in these times...

Reaper Ruby: Trust me, I intend to.

Priestess Glynda: Good. Don't break that promise. Now, all of you better make haste towards the settlement! It is north-east of here. No telling how long it has been since the attack but save and salvage whatever you possibly can. And make sure those vile menaces are put in their place.

With her last bit of orders being said, the team nodded in unison before making their way out of her quarters, leaving the Priestess to ponder to herself.

Priestess Glynda: Hmm, Rose. That name...It's been a while since I've heard it. I guess that wench did birth an offspring like she said she would. Let's hope she doesn't stray the path her mother did, or else.

(I bet y'all mfs don't remember when I created rouge for the rose reaper and dork knight series did ya? Well guess what-)

Dork Knights Rose Remorse!

I'll finish this angst war with a critical blow to you, @epic-arc this is and always will be the glitch cycle!

Jaune sat alone, his appearance much older as he appeared in his 60's as he sat in a chair on his cabins porch, looking at a field of Roses and sunflowers.

A young man walked up to him, his hair black, eyes azure blue, wearing a red t-shirt and black jacket as well as white jeans. He sat beside Jaune as the now old huntsmen smiled.

Rouge: the garden looks good.. I'm surprised you planted the roses so close.

Jaune: well.. your aunt and mother were always close..

Rouge: yeah.. how is Aunt Blake doing?

Jaune: we talked.. she's on the end of her rope.. I worry for her

Rouge: you worry for everyone old man.. so.. are we gonna talk about mom?

Jaune: Rouge.. I know it's been awhile-

Rouge: dad! It's been months.. you need someone to talk to. And I know you haven't talked to Aunt Blake or Mrs. Schnee.. you can't bottle up your grief!

Jaune: I'm not! I just.. your mother was.. she was my everything.. she made every day feel like I could live.. she inspired me after Beacons' fall.

Rouge: that doesn't mean just because she's gone you should shut everyone out.. when have you last talked to great uncle Qrow? When have you talked to Mr. Pine?!

Jaune:.. I don't want to discuss this anymore.

Rouge: she was your wife, but she was my mother.. I know how much it hurts.. or at least I can try! We both know mom would kick out asses for mopping!

Jaune: I said-

Rouge: how long until you realize you can't just shut people out dad?! How long until you realize you're shutting me out?!

The air went still as jaune sat there. He would look at his son as for a moment he could see both himself and his wife in his son's eyes.

Jaune:.. it just... It hurts.. it hurts because she doesn't get to be here, because she had to go on that mission, that one mission to destroy the relics! It.. it isn't fair, she was 55!

Rouge: and I was 16 dad. 16. It wasn't fair I lost my mother and it wasn't fair you lost your wife.. but im not about to let her death ruin my family.. your 61 dad, she died 4 years ago... You need to move on.

Jaune:.. I miss her.. so much.

Rouge sighed as he placed a hand on his father's shoulder.

Rouge: i miss her too dad.. I miss her too.

Ruby: As a personification of the inevitable end of all things, I'm sorry to save I don't have a functioning womb, or functioning anything.

Mama Arc: Then how are we talking, if you don't (Points to her tongue)?

Ruby: Oh, I use magic to replace the things that I need to walk, talk, and other living things.

Papa Arc: (Leans close) How's the kissing?

Jaune: Like magic~.

Papa Arc: Yeah, I get it's magic, but what does it feel like?

Mama Arc: Could you also replace a womb with magic?

Ruby: Actually, um... (Looks around, Whispers) Don't tell Jaune but I'm looking into life-creation spells. I think that I could give him a baby using it, but I'm still researching. I don't want Jaune to think I'm weird.

Mama Arc: (Whispers) Your secret is safe with me.

Jaune: You're beautiful! You're passionate, and intelligent, and you always see the best in others! Please, be my wife.

Ruby: Jaune, I... I like you, too... But we can't be together, because this isn't the real me. So, I ask you; if you can love this...

CAN YOU LOVE ME, EVEN LIKE THIS?

Jaune: (Grabs her bony hands) Yes! I'd still marry you!

Ruby: Oh!

---------------------------------------------------

Jaune: Mom! Dad! I'm home, and even better, I'm to be married to the most beautiful woman in the world~!

Ruby: Jaune, stooooop~! You're embarrassing me~!

Papa Arc: ...She's a ske-

Mama Arc: Ah, ah, ah! I judge the wives, you judge the husbands. That was our deal.

For a show that's supposedly about female empowerment, it's odd how every major female character is heavily influenced by men

Women whose fighting styles are based on men: Ruby (Qrow), Yang (Tai), Cinder (Rhodes)

Women whose ideologies are based on men: Weiss (opposition to Jacques), Blake (same as Ghira)

Women whose stories are almost completely intertwined with men: Nora (personal arc was figuring out who she was without Ren), Pyrrha (almost every scene with her prior to V3 was with Jaune), Emerald (almost every scene prior to v8 was shared with Mercury), Salem (motivated by Ozma's death, cursed by idiot brothers)

If the writing cast reflected the character cast, we probably wouldn't have this problem

The Paladin & their Succubus frenemy - 6

(TW!!: Domestic Violence): Read at your own risk.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

As the group and the two guards were walking ahead, with the crowd of injured servants behind them, Jaune decided to ask the two who they actually were.

Paladin Jaune: Hey? Neptune, was that your name?

Neptune: Uh yeah, what's up?

Paladin Jaune: So, what were you and Sun before...all this?

Neptune: Oh, I'm glad you asked! Partly because, most people ask Sun besides me, but. I'll tell you.

'Where to start? Well, me and Sun met 5 years ago. I was training in becoming a warrior of some kind, and Sun was already a pretty popular fighter. Although, a bit smug, he could back up his skills to anyone who'd try to call him out.'

'Seems like you guys are some capable fighters to me, when was the first time like?'

How'd we met exactly? He was in a brawl at a bar at our old hometown. One guy tried to sneak up on him and so, I tackled the guy. Took quite the hit in return but Sun repaid the generosity by knocking the guy out. Soon after, him and me were high tailing out of there, laughing our asses of, well Sun was...I was trying to catch my breath.

'Heh heh, we all have our adventures my friend. Either good or bad.'

'But after that, we've decided to be traveling partners until we, actually became partners.'

'Oh, I see. Well, I'm glad you both are together. It seems to me you both are a well-adjusted team. And you fighting those demons, even with inures, was impressive enough.'

As Neptune was speaking to Jaune about how him and Sun met, the rest of the group were ear hustling in, with Sun smiling softly as Neptune talked his heart out about the two of them.

Champion Pyrrha: You really found a great man.

Sun: Don't I know it? He's scrawny sure, but he can sure as hell fight and take hits like no one I teamed with.

Dwarf Nora: Hidden strength type? That kind of reminds of a special man of me own.

Monk Ren: I wonder who it could be.

Dwarf Nora: Oh, surely not you~.

Reaper Ruby: Hm.

Champion Pyrrha: Something on your mind, Ruby?

Reaper Ruby: No, just wondering about something...

Sun: What is it?

Reaper Ruby: How did you both find out...uhm...

Sun: We were the one for each other?

Ruby nods her head slowly.

Sun: Hm, we just...spent a lot of time together. I got to know him and he got to know me. And we just sort of, clicked. Hell, once we were done with this mission, our pay would've sent us on a nice vacation until it was back to our daily lives of exploration. But, with some of the people we've lost...I don't know how true our actual pay may be.

Sun moped abit, now thinking about their current problem before he felt a hand plant itself on his shoulder. He looked towards his right side to see Ruby patting it.

Reaper Ruby: It's not your fault. Like Jaune said, you both tried your best. Plus, we maaay need to have a talk with who wanted these servants in the first place, since they might be in trouble.

Sun: Oh, they won't be. Trust me.

Reaper Ruby: Why do you say that? Of course they'll be in trouble, they risked people's lives!

The rest just looked at her with confusion or at each other, sensing she didn't know the situation entirely.

Dwarf Nora: Does she not know who we're meeting?

Reaper Ruby: Who?

Nora loudly whispered to Ruby.

'It's the Schnees!'

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Meanwhile, as the group was still making their way out of the forest to civilization, there was a commotion going on in a manor at their village.

???: Didn't I say, to be dressed accordingly to what I said?!

A white-haired man shouted at a younger woman, slapping her across her face as his hand left a slight mark on it. The young woman was stunned but looked back at him, silently nodding her head as tears began to slowly form and fall from her eyes.

???: Now, go and get dressed, less I have to punish you once more.

???: Y-Yes father.

The young woman hastily went into her room, hearing the man turn his attention to someone else, possibly her mother...

???: Oh, give me a break! Can't either of you worthless broads dress properly?!

???: W-What did you just call- AH!

The young woman flinched as she heard the screams, followed by muffled crying as the man shouted at her mother some more.

???: Don't even dare speak to me in that tone. Do you know how fast I could have you all jailed? Exiled?! EXECUTED FOR ALL I CARE?!

The young woman just crumbled as she wept, yearning for the day the man she calls her 'father' dies.

???: Someday Weiss...someday.

The rose reaper and her shining dork knight: FUTURE!

(doesn't exactly have to be counted as part of the main fic collection I just wanted to add a post where I get to introduce some potential children for my second favorite jaune ship. I will always be a white knight shipper at heart)

We begin at a very familiar grave site. As we see the gravestone of one "summer rose" as we see a black haired figure with azure eyes. He wore a deep red jacket that had the emblem of a burning Rose surrounded by the emblem of a crescent moon.

???: Hey grams.. decided to let you know how Mom's doing after last check in.

The figure sat down in front of the grave as he placed a familiar sword .

???: So far mom's been good. Now that her and my old man retired they got to spend a lot more time. To the point of where now I have a baby sister on the way... Life's been great, even gramps decided to visit. Same with Aunt Yang and Blake. Though sometimes mom and Gramps do wish you were here to celebrate with us. But overall it's been golden.

Suddenly we hear the stomping of footsteps as the figure soon stood revealing himself to be a rather young man. He turned to see a large black wolf with bones covering it as It growled at him. The boy just chuckled as he grabbed the sword as it's sheath had what appeared to be an exhaust attached to the end. Before we see grab the handle as he tossed a red crystal into a compartment in the sheath as his revved up the blade as fire shot out of the exhaust.

Rouge: Here doggy. Come let papa rouge put you six feet under.

The dog tarted towards him as the boy knelt down before slicing through air as a blast fire shot from the exhaust as we a flaming bunny fallowing the blade as we see a sea of flames consume the beast. As we are left with the last thing we see before the boy surrounded by flaming roses.

Suddenly our vision changes to ruby standing on the porch holding some binoculars as she watched the inferno.

Ruby: hehe that's my son. Scorch the doggy!

Jaune: ruby come on dinners almost ready!

Ruby: one second vomit man, I'm getting to be a proud momma!

Jaune just sighed as he chuckled softly. This was the lives they finally got to live. Quiet, peaceful, and sometimes full of scorched grimm carcasses.

(obviously this is very short because I have been kind of running empty due to burnout. But on the way I hope you all got to enjoy this somewhat Lancaster fanfic. Don't truth this is more just an excuse to write their kid.)
