And here after a long while chapter nine. Don't really have a summary so just enjoy.
humans/faunus talking: "Nobodies"
humans/faunus thinking: "Nobodies"
nobodies talking: "Master"
nobodies thinking: "Master"
The three keyblade masters stared at the blonde, each slightly disappointed that the supposed master didn't look that way each of them pictured him respectively. Jaune feeling a bit wary of the eyes on him and flaming keyblade resting on the spiky haired guy's shoulder decided to break the silence.
"Uh, Hi there." He waved with a nervous smile.
"So, you're the new master huh?" Lea asked idly tapping his keyblade on his shoulder. To this Jaune gained a look of surprise, they knew who he was and that he was coming. How he personally had no clue, but for now it was best to just answer whatever questions they ask.
They were the ones who brought down the old masters after all.
"Uh yeah, At least for now." Jaune said getting a few raised eyebrows.
"And what do you mean by that?" Riku asked a bit cautiously.
"They're kinda making me go through a few tests to see if I can stay that way." The blonde said sheepishly scratching the back of his head.
"Huh, really? They didn't make the boss do any of that." Lea muttered to himself.
Riku took another second to analyze him before he spoke again."So tests aside you mind telling us your name?" he asked.
Jaune reeled back realizing he forgot to introduce himself."OH! Right! Uh, my name is Jaune. It's uh, nice to meet you." He said holding out his hand hoping for one of them to accept it.
Thankfully some one did before it got awkward. He felt a hand clap onto his and saw the Brown haired one accepted the handshake."Well nice to meet you Jaune, The name's Sora!" The hero of the keyblade said with a friendly smile as he shook the blonde's hand.
"And right here is my best friend Riku and over there is our buddy Lea." Sora said gesturing to his fellow masters.
"Well you seem harmless enough, at least for now."The spiky red haired one spoke up."Like Sora said the name's Lea. Got it memorized?" He said with a grin and making his keyblade disappear in a flash of bright orange flames.
"And as you can probably tell I'm Riku. Good to meet you I guess." The silvered master said shaking Jaune's hand.
"Likewise." The knight agreed."So why were you three waiting for me?" he asked.
"Oh, Master Yen Sid has been keeping tabs on the Nobodies activity. He sensed that you were coming on the train from twilight town so he sent us down here to meet you." Sora explained.
"Oh. That makes sense."
"Yep, now follow us inside. The master wants to meet you in person." Riku instructed.
As they walked up the stairs to the Yen Sid's chamber Jaune took the time marvel at the view from the star shaped windows. It still amazed him that he was on an entirely different world than his own and got to be the first one from his to ever experience such wonder.
Now inside the chamber Jaune was met with a kind of person he never thought could possibly be real.
A wizard. Sitting at the large desk in the center of the room was master Yen Sid himself in all his greatness. He looked just as the blonde knight believed a wizard should. Long blue robes accompanied by his long grey beard, his cone shaped hat was adorned with stars and moons galore and he carried an air of great wisdom coupled by his intimidating expression.
All of which made Jaune stiffen a little as he stood before Yen Sid's analytical gaze while the other three stood on the side watching to see how it would play out. Jaune spent about about a minute giving the master a brief explanation about the events that lead to him becoming the Nobodies' leader. After word he simply stood there waiting for him to respond. It felt like almost ten minutes before the master finally spoke.
"So then, After all that you were lead here by the nobodies after they brought you to twilight town for your final test." His deep voice cut through the silence.
*Gulp!*Yes." Jaune said swallowing the lump in his throat.
"I see." Yen Sid hummed stroking his beard."While they may be drawn to you I can see they've made no attempt to sway you over to the darkness."
"Well, no. They haven't really done anything but to try and help me out the whole time they've been with me." Jaune said truthfully."Even though it's only been a couple of days since I've know them they don't seem all that bad to me."
Lea nodded in agreement."Blondie is kinda right. Those guys aren't so bad when they're on your side." He said prompting sora to elbow him in the side playfully.
"So we've been told." Riku chuckled.
"Be that as it may, I am still curious..." Yen Sid said his gaze almost piercing through the knight."The nobodies are beings of bot light and darkness searching for anything that could make them whole. So it begs the question, What exactly drew them to you?"
"W-Well-" Jaune slightly stuttered as he tried to answer."According to them my heart has the missing fragments from the hearts of their old masters." he finished, and now stood there wait for any of them to say something.
...
...
...
"HUH?!" So was the reaction from the three on the side of the room while Yen reacted with a bit more grace, though he was still just as surprised as any of them.
Jaune reeled back at their shout."Uh, Yeah. If you don't believe me I can summon their weapons too. Here look." Jaune held out his hand and the Lunar heart flashed into his hand further shocking the four.
"WHOA!" This time even Yen sid shared they're reaction as he shouted with them.
After calming down more questions were asked from the master about how the nobodies have been behaving, and Jaune himself had a few questions answered.
Jaune explained how remnant functioned to the master, how it was run by the four kingdoms and how they use dust as a source of power. How there was tension between the humans and faunus around the world. The purpose of the different huntsman academies to combat the creatures of grimm. He told them the creatures of gimm were beings of darkness that were attracted to negativity and the darkness in people. Afterwords Jaune got ask the master his questions.
He learned that most worlds are almost completely cut off from others save for very few individuals who have to keep them secret. And there are even worlds that serve as place of refuge for those who've lost their own worlds to the darkness. Another thing is time flows quite differently then on remnant, when it comes to worlds like twilight town or Yen Sid's tower it flows roughly the same. On other worlds it can vary from a few hours to a few days, when he asked why Yen Sid explained how his world was even more cut than others.
Though that was about all Yen Sid knew at the moment, he had long that this world fallen to darkness completely when the original kingdom hearts had been destroyed. The fact it had begun to resurface into the light raised a lot of questions to both parties.
Questions like:
Why has it only just begun to resurface and not earlier?
Would other worlds that fell along side remnant begin to resurface?
Were the creatures of grimm some advanced form of heartless?
And what about Jaune attracted the fragments of the organizations hearts.
And that is all for now. sorry for the long wait and the some what short chapter but I wanted to get this out before the the day ended.
But before we go here is a little treat for you guys.
Omake: Transformation troubles #2
suggested by Spartastic 4
"Come on Lady killer! how long does it take for you to poof into a new form?" Yang asked from her lounged position on the couch.
"I don't know, but I know for sure it takes longer when you break my concentration." Jaune replied a bit snarkily from his cross legged position in the center of the living room.
"You've been at this forever!" Yang whined
"We only started a few minutes ago." Came Jaune's deadpan reply.
"Touche."
After a few weeks into the semester the knight revealed to his friends that he could call upon twelve other forms to help them fight if needed. The only catch was he had no idea how besides Isa's which was just pure instinct, so he took some advice from Ren and tried using meditation to call upon them.
Today it was just Jaune and yang while the rest were off helping the teachers or running some errands. The two blondes were in the dorm while the knight was meditating in center of the room trying to access a new form from one of his fragments while the resident brawler observed.
He took a deep breath and began to concentrate once more. This time they both saw a change in the energy around him, the usual black and white thorns along with a few sparks of electricity formed a circle around the knight as Yang watched in awe. Seconds later the thorns changed into yellow colored lightning that began to dance wildly around him. It was so bright Yang had to cover her eyes before a huge flash filled the room.
"WHoa! That was a thing!" Yang said rubbing her eyes."So I gues it worked...huh?" Yang trailed off now that she clearly saw the new transformation.
"Yang? What's wrong, did it work?" Jaune asked in slight worry.
But when the words left his mouth there was something...off? DId his voice sound higher, and more feminine? And did his clothes become bit looser? Except for around the chest which felt a bit.. heavier?
And why was Yang grinning with a scary look in her eye?
XXXXXXXXX
The rest of the teams were walking back to the dorm and talking about various things. But the main topic was wondering if there was any success with Jaune trying to access a new form.
"KYAAAAAAH!"
*BOOOOM!*
But just when they were down the hall they heard a girl's scream and the sound of a large explosion... coming from their dorm!
They rushed over as fast as they could and flung the door open. What they saw when the smoke cleared was a rather pretty girl with blonde hair combed back except for two strands on either side of her head resembling antenna covering her chest with her arms and face completely red scooted back into the far wall who was in fact wearing Jaune's clothes.
And in the center was Yang sprawled faced down, smoldering with occasional twitch and spark of electricity.
The charred black brawler shakily raised her right hand before it snapped into a thumbs up."W-Worth I-It." She coughed out before she collapsed losing consciousness.
The other six standing in the door only shared one thought.'What the hell just happened!?'
