Manipulation Ch1

Jaune Arc was enjoying the cool night air in Vale as he walked back to his hotel. He had arrived the day before, but was starting to become a little stir crazy from just sitting in his hotel room all day.

He had decided to go out and explore the city. He visited a few shop, grabbed some food at a diner, and even went to a club to kill some time.

While he did have fun, he couldn't drink much, or chat up the two cute girls that were trying to get into his pants. 'It was quite obvious, as they weren't very subtle.' He wouldn't even need to use his semblance.

It's was such a shame he had to turn down the twins, due to the fact that he had to report to Beacon the following day. He was especially bummed out that he had missed the sexy blonde girl that was coming in as he was leaving. That had been over an hour ago.

'Ah well, maybe I can come visit again if I have the time.'

Jaune was dragged from his thoughts by the sound of glass breaking. As he looked down the road, he could see what looked like a cute girl in a red hood surrounded by thugs with red swords, and guns.

"Well, time to go play hero." Jaune sighed to himself, as he went their direction.

As he got closer, he noticed the girl had pulled a weapon of some kind from her lower back. He watched as it shifted and transformered into a giant scythe.

"Normally I would assume that was compensating for something, but that's pretty impressive." Jaune mumbled.

Sliding his sword and shield free, he begins to engage one of the thugs.

"Hey need a hand?"

"Yeah thanks." She shouted over the sound of steel clashing with steel.

Between the two of them they were making easy work of the thugs. Jaune was able to attack and defend. While she slashed and dodged the thugs attacks.

"Are you a huntsman?" The girl asked as she had placed her back to his.

"No, not yet, I'm starting Beacon tomorrow."

"Oh that's so cool, my sister is going there to-"

"LOOK OUT!"

Jaune yells, as he instinctively wraps an arm around the young girl's waist and pulls her into his chest. At the same time covering both of them with his shield.

.

During that split second, Jaune did not notice that he had subconsciously activited his semblance. As he had his arm wrapped protectively around the girl's waist, he had accidentally placed the Arc's crest upon her body. It appeared for a moment, before it was gone.

.

He felt his arm vibrate as the angry screaming projectile impacted his shield.

It hadn't manage to do any damage to him or the girl that huddled into his chest.

"T-thank you." She squeaked with a blush. He could feel her tremble slightly.

"No problem, the names Jaune by the way, Jaune Arc."

"Ruby Rose" she answers.

"Isn't it past you bed time kiddies?" Mocked Roman Torchwick as he stepped out of the store. His shoes crunching the broken glass.

"I don't have a bed time, I'm a big kid." Replied Jaune with a grin. Sword and shield at the ready. Ruby also stepping away and readying herself.

"Well as fun as it would be to play around with you two, I do have a schedule to keep. So I must bid you children a goodnight." He says cheerfully, as he swiftly draws his cane back up at them and fires another projectile.

Both Jaune and Ruby roll out of the way of the attack, only to spot Torchwick fleeing up a fire escape.

"We have to stop him." insisted Ruby as she ran after the criminal.

"I guess we might as well." Mumbled Jaune starting after her.

As the pair ran over roof tops they spotted Torchwick making his way into a Bullhead.

Running up to him, Torchwich threw a dust crystal at the pair and fired upon it causing a massive explosion that shook the very building beneath their feet.

They would have been seriously hurt or worse, if it wasn't for the blonde woman who had swooped in at the last second and produced a shield glyph.

'Whoa, who is the hot milf?' Wondered Jaune to himself.

As the dust cleared he caugh a clearer view of her.

Platinum blonde hair, sharp green eyes, busty chest and slim waist.

'Oh Jaune like, Jaune like very much.'

He turned back to the bullheaded as it started to rise. But instead of seeing Torchwick, he saw a pair of long creamy white legs in a short red dress coming out of the shadows.

'Just look at those killer legs!'

He could feel his arousal growing.

While he wasn't able to see her face, he was able to see her smoldering golden eyes staring at him before shifting over to the blonde.

Jaune was a bit in awe, as he watched the girl with the red dress and the hot blonde milf that saved him battle it out. He wondered if should jump in, but even with Ruby's help the bullhead was going to get away. So he decided against it.

'Enough hero work for one day.'

"Let's begin with your name young man." Asked Glynda Goodwitch, as she had introduced herself as.

"The names Jaune, Jaune Arc. Short, sweet, rolls off the tongue, ladies love it" Jaune replied with a smirk as he saw her eye twitch in what must've been annoyance.

'Oh yeah, she looks like the serious-strict type. Maybe I should help her relax a little bit.'

"Well , what exactly were you doing chasing a wanted criminal, over rooftops, in the middle of the night?"

" I was on my way back to my hotel when I saw that Ruby girl being attacked by a group of thugs. I couldn't exactly leave her to fight criminals by herself, could I?"

The blonde just shook her head and sighed.

"Well as commendable as your actions were, they are NOT to be repeated. It seems everything is pretty straightforward. We have already talked to and got herside of the story."

"Ok, what happens now?"

"You will be free to go, as you weren't responsible for the theft in anyway. I expect you to be at Beacon bright and early tomorrow."

"How did you know I was going to Beacon?" Asked Jaune with a confused look on his face.

"While a maybe a Huntress, I am also head deputy of Beacon."

"Oh, does that mean I'll get to see more of you?" Asked Jaune with a grin, looking up and down at her body.

"It would seem so " The blonde answered with a slight scowl on her face. No doubt not appreciating his eyes roaming over her body.

With the most polite smile he could muster, Jaune stood up and held out his hand for her to shake. "Well it was nice to meet you professor. I hope I can learn a lot of you."

Slight off put at the change in character, Goodwitch missed Jaune applying a small amount of aura to his hand as he activated his semblance. as soon as they shook hands. his symbol appeared on the back of her hand. before it vanished a moment later.

As They separated, Jaune made his way to the door, but he stopped. He turned around and looked at the blonde one more time.

"I'll be seeing you around" smiled Jaune as he exited the room, leaving a slightly confused Glynda.
