Here we go with a new chapter here! But first, I just want to send my prayers out to those who have been affected by Hurricane Harvey. May God provide for them all in their time of need! Also, I just want to warn you guys ahead of time that this chapter might be kinda short. Mainly because of Blake's overall character being all silent and preferring to read rather than do anything else. But I hope you enjoy the chapter anyway.

*I still don't own RWBY or Samurai Jack!*

Part 1 - Arrival of a Black Kitten!

"Ghira, Kali! I am honored to welcome you here!" Jack said, bowing in greeting.

The leader of the Fauni of Menagerie and his wife had arrived not too long ago with high spirits. It felt good to be welcomed to a place where humans accept and respect Faunus! And who knows? Maybe their daughter will make a friend or two or three while she's here. Anyway, Ghira and Kali bowed back in respect toward the Emperor of Japan.

"The pleasure is ours, my lord. Your people have shown us much kindness during our stay thus far. I only hope that negotiations between our lands go well, and that we can form an agreeable treaty." Ghira replied.

Jack smiled and looked down to see a little girl around his son's age attempting to hide behind Kali's legs. She has the same black cat ears as her mother's in addition to normal human ears, along with shoulder length black hair, amber yellow eyes and pale skin.

She gasped and hid behind her mother's legs, drawing a few giggles from Kali and Ashi.

"It's okay, sweetie. They won't hurt you." Kali whispered comfortingly to the child.

Slowly, the little girl emerged from behind her mother and stood in front of Jack and Ashi, giving a clumsy bow to try and be respectful.

"Emperor, this is our daughter, Blake Belladonna. Blake, this is Emperor Jack and his wife, Ashi. They're the people your father and I told you about." Kali introduced.

"Hi…" Blake nervously greeted.

Ashi offered a kind smile and knelt down to eye level with the child.

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Blake." she greeted.

She gently ruffled Blake's hair, getting a happy purr in response from the child. And I mean a literal purr like a cat. Then again, she is a cat Faunus, so maybe that has something to do with it. Ghira smiled at how quickly his daughter warmed up to these two. There may be hope for her yet, as she has always been very wary of humans as a whole. Ever since that bully of a brat yanked on her ears and laughed about it!

I think you all know who I'm talking about.

"Blake? Would you like to go out and play in the garden while your parents and I talk?" Jack asked. "I have a son about your age, and I am certain that he would love to have a friend to play with."

At the mention of a possible new friend to play with, Blake's eyes lit up and she nodded so fast it looked like her head might fly off her shoulders. Of course, this made all of the adults share a good chuckle over the child's enthusiasm.

"Come along, Blake. I will lead you to the garden where my son is probably either reading or practicing his swordsmanship." Ashi said.

As they began to walk towards the garden, Blake was looking up at Ashi with big starry eyes.

"Your son can use a sword?!" she asked excitedly.

"He's learning how to use one, yes. But he's only just started out." Ashi answered.

Now Blake was even MORE excited! See, she wants to become a Huntress when she grows up so she can protect people and help fight for Faunus/Human Equality, and she wants to use a sword as her weapon! The problem, however, is that her parents really don't want her to live such a dangerous and violent life. They'd rather she become the next mayor of Menagerie than a Huntress.

But Blake is dead set on becoming a huntress, and she won't rest until she becomes one! And her parents are painfully aware of this.

However, Ashi merely smiled at the young Fauni's ambition and hyperactive behavior. Just like Kage when she was a little girl. As the two walked off to meet Jaune in the garden, Jack turned back to Ghira and Kali with a serious yet calm expression.

"Now, I believe we have a treaty to discuss." Jack said. "Please, have a seat. I will have some tea brought in for us."

And with that, negotiations for peaceful relations between Japan and Menagerie began to take place. But little did any of them realize that certain people were on their way to Japan to try and not only take over, but to try and take a certain former Arc.

Meanwhile, in the garden, Jaune sat cross legged under his cherry blossom tree. His eyes are narrowed in concentration as he read from the scroll his father earlier that morning. If he was going to become a great Samurai Warrior like his father and sister, he needs to study and become much stronger.

But he knows that he can't get stronger fast enough if he doesn't practice what he learns. So he picked up his Bokken, set the scroll against his tree and started slowly going over the movements as shown in the scroll.

One thing is certain. Young Samurai Jaune is going to be in for the ride of his life.

*To Be Continued…*

This chapter will be a two parter due to it's short length. And next chapter has a few more familiar characters and shows Jaune getting something that will help him with defeating these new and dangerous foes. Now, I plan to update at least two chapters of Bionicle: Destiny of a Golden Dragon before getting a new chapter for Scarlet Scarab: Arc of The Teen Titans up and running. See you guys later!
