Between the volumes of the show, when the cameras are off, the seeds of a relationship are planted. Watch it grow with all the fluff, trials, and angst one would expect of a teenage romance between two friends on a mission to save the world. Slow burn Knightshade. Tries to be fully cannon compliant through volume 6 at least. All chapters take place after the volume referenced.

Blake needed one person to rely on at Beacon, just one person she could trust in all things. It was an impossible expectation at first, but then Jaune was talking to himself and let the truth slip out. It was shameful to blackmail him into friendship, but it's not like she had a better idea. Jaune was no Adam, but he could be made into what she wanted. Or is he as weak as he seems?

Jaune Arc always followed the rules, he kept it that way until he was booted from Beacon. Coming home a failure isn't something to be proud of. Before leaving, a letter appeared on the doorstep. It's a shot to return but involves robbing banks and fight crime syndicates. He will have help, and the choice is simple. He crafts the mask for the task. This will be his Payday. RWBY

Thrust into the future through a freak clash of Semblances, an unlikely team must survive a dystopian world where Salem has eradicated all of Remnant except for one city. But even within humanity's last bastion, the Council rules with an iron fist while rebellion is whispered underground. Can they get back to their own time without being found out by old friends and enemies alike?

Jaune's Semblance has activated and he is about to restart his life, long ago helost track of how many lives he has lived. Though this trip proves to be different, for the first time ever someone has gone back with him. Jaune for the first time is not alone as he prepares to face off against Cinder and her allies with Yang at his back does he finally have a real chance?

A fanfic of a fanfic. (with permission given) Here is my take on the continuation of Not this Time, Fate by Coeur Al'Aran. M rating for swearing and violence.

Three people find themselves faced with decisions that none would like to take, one would only realize how much their actions shape the world when they were living their second life, but they would not lie down and accept defeat, they had chosen another chance over accepting the unfairness of the world, if Remnant gave them a bad ending then they'd write their ending themselves.

It's Christmas at Beacon, and most of the student body has gone home to spend time with their families with the notable exceptions of one Faunus and one tall, scraggly blonde.

Blake is on a boat returning home, when she notices a cloaked figure on one of the decks watching her. Who could it be? White Fang? Adam? Sun? Nope! Seems like a certain knight didn't join up with Ruby and the others, and has instead been traveling on his own. But he's not exactly the same goofy guy Blake remembers from before the Fall.

During the search for Blake, Team RWBY is joined by Team JNPR. At the battle on the docks, Jaune Arc finds himself face to face with someone he never thought he would see again. How will he navigate his future as a Huntsman with his only brother out there, being hunted down by his friends. Slow, slow Knightshade.

After losing his wife to a mysterious illness, widower Jaune struggles to find solace as he is left alone to raise his daughter as a single parent. It is a story of family, loss, hope, love, healing, regret, and forgiveness in this journey as Jaune tries to live through life without his wife. Then, he reacquaints with an old classmate who changes his life and then some. {AU}

A wave of excited, frantic murmuring spread across the viewing stands as, all at once, the students of Beacon realized that the Professors Arc were using their practical demonstration to flirt.

Who would have thought that the fact that Jaune Arc has a tattoo wouldn't be the biggest surprise of the day?

Take an Aura, any Aura. Now add the auras of every living organism to it. That gives you a lot of Aura. Now give someone the ability to control that Aura. That gives you The Force. Now make The Force a Semblance. That gives you a pretty nice Semblance. Now give that Semblance to a certain Jaune Arc. That gives you a fairly interesting story. Will he be Jedi.. Or Sith? First POV fic

Forced to admit that Crocea Mors didn't feel right in his hands—no matter how he held it—Jaune Arc struggled to overcome this obstacle through the insane idea that Aura could become more than just the armor that protected him. Barriers broke as he pushed past the limits of what Aura was capable of, creating and forging his very own weapons from the manifestation of his soul.

Jaune Arc's life was as normal as the next guy's. He attended college, he had a job, and he had friends like any other boy his age, but all of that changed when he took in an injured black cat. STATUS: DISCONTINUED

Jaune Arc did not expect having his life saved by an angel, he did not expect being made an actual Huntsman by that angel, and he ESPECIALLY did not expect becoming her husband. STATUS: DISCONTINUED

When Jaune Arc was just a small child, his mother gave him a tiny seed to grow and nurture as a way to learn responsibility. His father gave him a useless Dust Shard to study power and focus. Only problem, the little Arc had wrongly misinterpreted their lessons and ended up creating Remnant's one and only Dust-Dust Fruit.

The war has torn Remnant apart. The Hunters have failed and Grimms now lay siege to the city. Everyone we know and love are gone. But there was still a chance to set this right. A chance to change things... for better or for worse. And sadly, the only candidate left was the weakest among them. But perhaps... it was enough. Fan art by Keji Springfield!

What happens when Jaune wasn't raised by his own family but instead adopted by a certain Cat Family? Will he grow up to be the likable doofus or the silent knight? We'll see in this strange situation.

Yang just wanted to be a better friend to Jaune and help cheer him up, but one thing led to another. That one night together was all it took for them to see a different side of each other. Sides seldom seen... but they're still just friends. Yang is definitely not noticing the dork more and Jaune is certainly not falling for another girl. It's just some clean release. Nothing more.

He hadn't gone to combat school; he hadn't even taken an entrance exam. But Jaune Arc figured if he could at least make it past Beacon Academy's initiation, then he might just have what it takes to become a huntsman. And in a sense... he's right. The little training he received from his sister may just be enough.

Although taken in by Raven as a kid, Jaune never saw eye to eye with her. So when Raven sends him to Beacon to spy on Ozpin, Qrow, and Yang, Jaune must decide what lines he is willing to cross in order to become his own master. What good is being a better person than Raven if you're too weak to break free from her, and why trade one leash for another by joining Ozpin? Complete

War ravages the land. Families are torn apart. Sons and daughters are sent to fight for governments they have no say in. When First Lieutenant Jaune Arc and his team are sent deep behind enemy lines to end the war they learn things aren't entirely black and white. Can they adapt to the morally gray or will they be among the countless lives lost?

Many untold stories happened after Bellwether's arrest. From Judy's leg injury, to her reinstatement, her convincing of Nick to join her, awkward family conversations on both sides, Nick's training, and many more. This is a story of how a fox and bunny helped each other through those times, grow close, and develop a certain feeling for each other they never thought they would.

It's been six years since the end of Vol. 3, and Jaune is now a professional huntsmen. The victory against Salem came at a great cost, and left devastating consequences. Remnant is a very different place than when Jaune first stepped into Beacon and new threats lurk in this new chapter of his life. Future AU centered around a badass yet charming Jaune. Eventual romance.

Winter: You want to be a player and not a piece? Start thinking like one. Being mean isn't enough, you have to use your head. You need to fight smart. Art courtesy of CHE3ZY.

It didn't take long for Weiss Schnee to be sick of Jaune Arc's constant attempts at courting her, but when the young blond approaches her regarding something other than a date, what does this mean for the Schnee heiress? A tale of an unlikely friendship, and an even less likely romance. White Knight.

Jaune Arc never believed in, or really aspired to be, a huntsmen. Yet here he was in the company of one in training. In retrospect he never did understand the stigma against Grimm, they weren't the only frightening thing in the world. There's little difference between discord within and without the kingdoms.

Ruby Rose, now a twenty four year old Huntress, is joined by her uncle and veteran Huntsman Qrow Branwen on a politically sensitive trail to a tiny island in Atlas' eastern seas, where they meet paranoia in a strange enemy, and regret in a familiar face. Credit to Zaheela for the cover.

X: On the way to the abandoned Branwen camp Jaune finds himself dealing with Rowan and a conversation he'd rather not have. Meanwhile, Weiss finds herself at the mercy of the Red Claw, the White Fang's elite assassins, as her situation grows worse when she is faced with an ugly truth about her immediate future. The war is coming, there is no escaping the revolution.

Following the film's events, life in Zootropolis continues! Nick and Judy search for a place to live downtown, face crooks, spies and hassled parents, and hang out together more and more often over monstrous mugs of coffee and dainty cups of herbal tea... a bit too often for two animals who are 'just friends' maybe? COMPLETE :)

At the end of the 4th Shinobi War, things don't go quite as planned for Naruto forcing him to make a sacrifice in order to bring the peace that he had been destined for.

They weren't lovers. They certainly weren't friends. At best, they qualified as acquaintances. However, one crazy night changes all of that. Pretending it didn't happen would have been the smart choice. Unfortunately, neither Blake nor Jaune is all that good at making smart choices.

Ten years had passed since the Fall of Beacon and while the world had been saved by no small effort made by his friends and himself Jaune feels lost in the new world. He wanted to be a Huntsman to help those in need and while he still found his career satisfying he knew something was missing from his life.

13 year old Blake just wanted to feel safe, find someone she could trust and would understand her. Was this boy the one she needed?

In Jaune Arc's eyes, death was a finality of life but not something to be scared of. Though in truth it was't something a high schooler really cared about. However when things start to happen that set course to shatter the world he knows. He realizes that in Death's eyes it didn't matter who or what they were, for they were all the same to Death. (Zombie AU)

AU. In a world where humanity is on the brink of extinction in the face of the Grimm, the kingdom of Vale has resorted to arranged marriages between its strongest citizens, hoping against hope that a miracle hero will be born. In a romance initiated without free choice, is it even possible to find happiness? Lancaster

Jaune Arc, Field Agent of the VSS - Vale's Secret Service, or at least that's what he's been told. All he knows is that they found out about his faked transcripts, and now he works in the interests of the Kingdom. With terrorists on the horizon, not to mention a shady organisation and an even shadier group operating under Ozpin, what's a bumbling teen turned secret agent to do?

After ten years in the badlands fighting grimm Jaune finally returns home to fulfill a promise he made to a certain blonde brawler. JaunexYang. Rated M for language. My own take on the Story 'Promises' by Defiled Ladel. I do not own RWBY it belongs to Monty Oum may he rest in peace and Roosterteeth. Yeah this story is pretty much dead. Sorry.

When Jaune Arc gets picked to fill in for an injured member for team DSLT (Desolate), will he rise up to the challenge, or fail and die? Rated M for now, but that will come in later. Will contain some OC's. A Jaune x Harem.

After a freak accident during the Breach, Blake finds herself facing the impossible: her semblance has been altered into something calling itself The Gamer. With levels, quests and bosses to master, she has little recourse but to enlist the aid of the school's resident gaming expert, Jaune Arc. Will Blake be able to take on fearsome odds and the mantle of The Gamer Girl?

Jaune Arc believed he had it all figured out. A few embellished documents and a deal with a 'family friend' had gotten him into Mistral's Sanctum Academy. He was well on his way to achieving his dream, but anything built on a foundation of sand cannot stand. Expelled and cast adrift, Jaune Arc will build a foundation that will support a greater destiny than he could ever imagine.

In a world that exists with those who have 'aura', comes a power located deep within one's soul known as a 'semblance'. There are legends and heroes that have such things called semblances, along with every living individual having the ability to have and use their semblance. However, as impossible as it is... there is one certain person that doesn't have such a thing.

Jaune Arc was supposed to be an ordinary high school student. Jaune Arc was not supposed to help huntsmen and huntresses with supernatural problems that he barely knows how to handle. Meeting that vampire during spring break was a freak accident. His parents said huntsman academies were too dangerous. Turns out high school was no less dangerous for him.

This story is discontinued. Please move along.

After an unfortunate event during his childhood, Jaune Arc became Jonathan Beauregard. His memories, erased, his potential, unbound. Heir to a slowly mending kingdom, Jaune must discover the truth about his heritage while also surviving Beacon and the development of his abilities. Maybe the voices in his head can give him some answers... They say it's all due to his legacy.

A shield? Okay admittedly I don't know how to use a shield. But a sword? That I know how to use. Jaune P.O.V.

One operated in the shadows, and the other thrived in the light. One kept her thoughts and emotions closely guarded, and the other wore them on his sleeve. One had more than a few secrets to her name, and the other... was willing to keep them for her. Now why did that only piss her off?

The rise of humanoid Grimm is one complication of Remnant, but add that onto the other complications that are soon to be made between the madness of war and conflict, then you have a calamity. To counter this, an organization known as the First Ascended Legacies is created, gathering all the fighters they can... and leading it, an unsuspecting teen named Jaune.

The Arc bloodline bears a curious curse, forcing the firstborn sons to lead interesting lives. Jaune Arc, while the eighth child in his family is still the first son born to them, and so he bears the curse. This curse however will lead him down a path he had dreamed of, a life of adventure and freedom, but not the path to becoming a hero. The path to HEAVEN.

Once considered the single biggest failure in ZPD history was Chief Bogo's bane, an unsolved case that tarnished his perfect record, a failure that the savage case threatened to echo. But as Nick and Judy follow a lead into what was once considered an impossible case, they find themselves chasing a shadow, racing against the clock as animals disappear every day it's at large.

Reupload of the original version of my first story. For those who haven't read it and those who have asked for this version to be brought back. It's still incomplete, but at the end of the last chapter I am also putting a summary of how the story was supposed to conclude.

Alcohol is a presence in all aspects of Humanity and Faunuskind. It breaks, helps, and heals. The people who serve it find they're the people who can help. After a rejection at Beacon, Jaune finds his place to belong at a bar, hoping to recover from his past mistakes by helping others in need. Cover: Hanisu93

Jaune found a baby in the middle of Emerald Forest and decided to be her new father.

Knowledge was a key. It unlocked the mind, it freed the spirit. Almost no one knew about life outside the city-state, no one except for those in control. Nick had always lived a life of outcast and discrimination, but as society begins to crumble, he must do what he can to find the answers rarely asked for — and more importantly — to survive in a corrupted world turned against him.

Qrow was only in the Wilds to investigate some ridiculous rumor about friendly Grimm. Instead, he found a boy that could command them. AU.

Blake was never one to meddle in people's problems. However one day when she decides to help Jaune with something simple, her plans go awry. Little did she know how her decision would shape the rest of her days at Beacon Academy.

Following a fateful encounter with a certain Ice Queen that left him with the unique ability to manipulate snow and ice to his will, Jaune begins his journey at Beacon, not knowing that the heiress herself had also decided to attend. Thus begins their adventure of hardship, horrible ice puns and maybe even a chance of romance.

When an impromptu party breaks out at Beacon it's time for our heroes to have some fun but In hindsight, going to a party where the games are hosted by Yang wasn't the best idea.

After being arrested for a murder he didn't commit, Nick Wilde has endured his prison sentence for one year when predator crimes shake the distraught Zootopia once again. Judy Hopps is sent to interrogate the notorious killer, only to find herself confronted with a truth she wasn't willing to accept. (Inspired by the old plot for Zootopia)

He didn't know the first thing about teaching, Hell, he didn't even know the first thing about fighting! A shame then, that his forged documents painted the picture of an accomplished and skilled warrior. Now he's trapped teaching students his own age how to be hunters, when he doesn't even know himself!

Snippets that take place at no particular time in the story. Some AU here and there as well.

"You are banished from death, cast adrift between the worlds of light and dark. A curse binds us together to walk the earth of Remnant for all time. But we can be saved…for you have been chosen to save it from the ambition of a mad woman and only by stopping her can we be free of our curse...Jaune Arc"

The romance of Jaune and Ruby, following them as they continue to grow. Will have both angsty and comedic elements.

Many Fairy Tales exist in Remnant, and many of them are actually true. When you're a member of a race of Dragons whose semblances allows them to turn into human form, you probably believe in even the craziest sounding Fairy Tales. Jaune Arc is just your normal everyday Dragon sent to live life as a normal everyday human huntsman, until a certain Blonde Brawler discovers his secret.

Yang, Blake and Weiss get ready for their second semester by investigating into the actions of the White Fang and Roman Torchwick. But when a young fighter wielding the weapon of their dead leader shows up and almost kills one of them the remnant of team RWBY have to figure out quickly who the fighter is before more bodies turn up.

After a rather harsh rejection from Weiss Schnee, Jaune realizes that he needed to stop chasing her and become stronger. With the help of his team and that of Ruby, Yang and Blake. He will strive to become the hero he dreams to be. All the while hiding a secret that would rock the world of RWBY.

(CANCELLED) By chance Jaune stumbles upon something relating to his family's ancient history. As a child he was told his family was from a long lineage of great and honorable warriors. What he discovers though indicates their origins might be a little more. Together with his friends he embarks on a quest to find the Arc family's origin.

An alternate universe wherein Nick Wilde decides to head to Bunnyburrows in order to find Judy Hopps nearly three months after the press conference.

Jaune discovers a book six years before his venture into Beacon. In doing so, he rediscovers the lost art of Alchemy. Without the unspoken rules taught by older Alchemists however, Jaune commits Alchemy's cardinal sin: Resurrecting a human. Now all Jaune wants to do is stay at home and find a way to restore what he did wrong. Too bad Ozpin has different plans. Fullmetal cross-ish.

Pyrrha and Blake discover a certain connection over a little black novel in one of Beacon's laundry rooms. What if they weren't the only ones to have a connection through the Ninjas of Love series? Shameless Darkos PLOT. I regret nothing!

It was over, the Second Great War was over. The Allied Remnant Coalition won and Salem and her forces retreat back into the shadows. But, what happened after the dust finally settled. These are the historical records, information, and logs chronicling the aftermath of the Second Great War. Takes place non-canonically after Paulxion's story: RWBY: Tomorrow and Never Again.

By all rights, Jaune's dream of becoming a Huntsman should have died when he was expelled from Beacon. It won't, though, not if Qrow has anything to say about it. Their redemption lies beyond the walls of the Four Kingdoms, in lands where Grimm roam unchecked and unchallenged. Welcome to the old ways of Hunting. Welcome to the Wilds.

"You know what they say about desperate times… right now is about as desperate as we can get. Salem has pushed us underground, got us fighting for our lives on a daily basis. We've lost people and not just to death. Much worse than that. All I can say is we're going to need one hell of a miracle to pull this one back." – Qrow

Good kingdoms don't rely on children to fight their battles. Bad kingdoms recruit them as spies to ferret out the traitors. But then, that's what happens in a world where the Colour Revolution failed.

Ruby Rose had one job, release the souls of humans from their mortal coil by saying their name aloud. But when her first day goes completely awry and her target challenges her information on humanity, she decides to stay with him, perhaps forever. And matters only get worse when her equally supernatural family find out that their precious Rose has had her heart stolen by a human.

To protect and serve the citizens of Zootopia, an officer must be willing to give his or her all. But the weight of the badge is heavy, and the price all officers must pay will be steep. When a simple call goes wrong, all are reminded of the burden of standing on the thin blue line.

Jaune felt pretty damn good about finally defeating Cinder, which might of been why he forgot she was a sore loser. In a blast of Maiden power, he's suddenly a decade in the past. No, the fact that Cinder and the White Fang are still alive and kicking doesn't worry him, he can handle them. He's worried about how he can watch 17 year old Jaune Arc and not strangle himself...

Jaune Arc, Weiss Schnee, Blake Belladonna, and Ruby Rose form team Auburn.

Cinder Fall is a young huntress who has recently been accepted into the world famous Beacon Academy, a school that will train her to fight the evil forces of the Grimm. Of course with the evil Blood Rose family, lead by the evil crime boss Ruby Rose taking action from the shadows who knows how she will survive.

This is a sequel series to Jauneforevers A Knights final fight series as such I would plead for you to read it before reading this series. The fight against Salem was going poorly when someone thought dead returned to help stronger then ever with new and surprising allies by his side. adopted originally Jauneforever's story possible JauneXHarem

Fairy tales and legends aren't without some merit of truth behind them. When one such myth resurfaces, the legacy and survival of a forgotten people is now in the hands of a select few whom have the power to either save Remnant, or finish what their ancestors couldn't. Each will take sides, but there will be no stalemates this time around.

When Jaune was young he hoped for a powerful semblance. He didn't get one.

The White Fang decides to open up its own club in order make money for its revolution. In their path lie rival clubs, crime rings and the military. Who said owning your own night club would be easy? AU Blake never leaves the White Fang and no Grimm. Rated M for profanity, language, and violence.(Hiatus)

His old name was forgotten, his people written off as a fairy tale. And after being the sole success of an old man's twisted dream, Jaune must forge his own path as an inevitable storm approaches the four known kingdoms. However, little does the world know, a fifth kingdom is about to make itself known. (Summary Rewrite)

"Red paws a'knocking, honeyed words a'talking. Bunny's in the sack, a knife in her back. Shut the doors and check the locks. Here comes the big bad fox" - An old rabbit nursery rhyme. (AU)

Sometimes, the best heroes are not born from the perfect places in life. Sometimes, they are born from the most questionable places in life. Sometimes, the best heroes are not normal.

In their journey of hardship and growth, Team RWBY and Team JNPR meet new allies, and foes that will bring to light the conspiracy behind the Queen.

Jaune Arc always felt that he was really unlucky. Every time he went off to train, he got attacked by Grimm. Every time he was attacked by Grimm, he felt a bit worse about himself. The worse he felt about himself, the stronger the Grimm got. It's like a miracle that he actually got away with his life every time!

At the brink of death, Jaune is visited by the mysterious Outsider, given his mark and the powers that come with it. Jaune now struggles to understand his role in the grand scheme of things as he utilizes the powers granted to him. (Crossover Elements with Dishonoured) ON HIATUS!

During an attack on his home village, Jaune Arc activates his semblance. Evildoers beware! Where he walks, an army follows!

What if Judy and Nick hadn't swapped out the serum for blueberries? As Bellwether tightens her grip on the divided Zootopia, Nick is turned savage for real and committed to solitary confinement. But Judy isn't ready to give up on him, and soon the two are fighting for survival - not just against the world, but against each other. Set during/after an alternative ending to the movie.

Jaune Arc didn't think much—he was more impulsive than anything. So when he was kicked out of Beacon he had no idea what would happen to him. He never expected to become friends with the criminals he was sent to spy on... neither did he expect that the helpful little voice in his head was actually a she-devil trying to destroy humanity...

All Jaune Arc ever wanted to do was to enter Beacon and become a hero, but Arcs don't give up just because people see through their fake transcripts! After months of hard work, he finally manages to enter Beacon... as the Supreme Commander and Glorious Leader of a twice-reformed organization now threatening to engulf Remnant in an all-out world war. Uhh, Oops? Move over, Cinder.

The Arc family. One of famous heroes, deeming themselves worthy of having the title of a 'knight'. Everyone knew who they were, and knew their favored weapon - Crocea Mors. Being in the spotlight so long, this sword and shield overshadowed something the Arc's had tried to hide. A different weapon...one that no one had ever seen before...one that a certain Jaune Arc stumbled upon.

With the tales of Grimm, Maidens, and more coursing through Beacon, who's to say Ghosts are any different? Meet Jaune Arc, a boy gifted and cursed with the ability to turn into a ghostly form. He's an average guy, until a certain someone finds out his secret. What's he gonna do? Took some elements from Danny Phantom, but not a crossover!

A whole bunch of shenanigans that involve Team RWBY, JNPR, the Beacon Staff, and CFVY. Read and Review. Be gentle please.

In another life, he would've been called Jaune Arc. Today, he is Jay Branwen. So what are the perks? Training from the best of the best? A father that shields you, but is a hardass? The celebrity status? Check. And the bad stuff? Um...same as the perks. Life's bound to be one hell of a ride. One thing's for sure: we hate the word perfect. And Pyrrha Nikos is described as such.

All Jaune ever wanted was to be a hero. And yes, "Protector of the Multiverse" probably fits that category. But if someone had told him that he would need to work together with so many alternate versions of himself? "Farmer" isn't looking so bad anymore... Collaborative writing project founded on the Professor Arc Forum. Feat. Jaunes from Coeur Al'Aran and College Fool.

The Grimm are changing, evolving, gathering, and they pay absolutely no mind to humanity's time of peace. Meanwhile, Jaune Arc trains tirelessly, preparing for a career as hunter, unaware that his team would be called upon far sooner than anticipated. Teams JNPR, RWBY, and a newly impassioned team CRDL are sent on a joint mission, outside of the protection of Vale's walls.

It's been a year since Judy and Nick became partners at the ZPD, and they still struggle every day to prove themselves. When the head of the Cottontail Corporation comes to them with a case against a family of foxes, Nick and Judy find themselves faced with the question: What is most important? Loyalty to one's city, one's species, or to the partner who means more than anything?

It all started when Weiss asked a favor of the one man in Beacon who infuriated her, Jaune had been looking for a chance for a very long time and he finally get's it. Empire (JaunexWeiss), Solar Eclipse(SunxBlake), Pink Lotus(RenxNora), Sea Flames (YangxNeptune), Razzle Dazzle (RomanxNeo). Please to be forgiving me now.

Judy and Nick are given a task that seems more like a fun getaway: providing a little security for the annual Bunnyburrow Fall Harvest Festival. But things aren't as peaceful as they may now be in Zootopia, and the two cops are thrust into a brand new caper - solved with the help of a certain pastry-baking fox from Judy's past.

Years from now, Jaune Arc would look back on this faithful day, and thank the stars he decided to go through with the bet. It had been all fun and games, until Ruby decided to make a bet, making the loser become the Victor's servant for the day. Neither would've guessed that they would end up making love right there on the floor of his dorm of all places. JaunexRuby Lancaster Smut

"They were his ultimate nightmare: a red and grey, fluffy, walking, talking, laughing, will-they-won't-they abomination of adorableness." In which a rabbit and a fox fight crime, each other, sexual tension, their boss, their parents, more sexual tension, kidnappers, their boss's boss, and sexual tension. Heck, let's throw a monsoon in there for good measure. WildeHopps

Jaune's a normal guy, if his older brother wasn't a professor hell bent on making his life hell, if he didn't stumble across grim-reaper wannabe red riding hoods weapon fetishest, if he didn't find himself forcibly pressed into Beacon Academy by said brother, and if he wasn't raised in the countryside.

Set exactly two years after rookie Officer Judy Hopps joined the Zootopia Police Department, this story explores the events of Judy in the post-Night Howler city. She had saved the city from fear of an outbreak of savage predators, but the city is far from alright. Join Judy Hopps and Nick Wilde as they discover their biggest case yet.

A telling of Judy and Nick discovering their feeling for one another, and battling against all odds to stay together, despite the prejudice against pred/prey couples, and Nick's own inability to put Judy through the same hardships he faced as a child. Rated M for probable course language and eventual shipping degeneracy. Maybe violence too, who knows. I'm playing by ear.

Officers Nick Wilde and Judy Hopps are on a new missing mammal case! But how will ZPD's newest officer respond when forced to face his past? (Will contain some JudyxNick later on)

As Nick recovers from injuries incurred in the line of duty, the relationship between Nick and Judy continues to grow, and Nick continues his own journey to maturity.

A bit of JaunexYang since RWBY Story Maker say there is just to few of these. Might be a one-shot or an actual multi-shot fic depending on the reviews. This summary is terrible and I know it. I am just really tired so sorry, anyway enjoy. I guess it's more romance, I might add humor and other genres later... Heh I am rambling, as I said enjoy! Cover made by AoNeko90 on Deviantart!

This is the end, but maybe they will have something left to look forward to. Fair warning, a damn sight darker than most stuff I write.

If a starving man was given a buffet of food, what would he do? Would he eat and then merely leave content and fulfilled to continue his day? Or would he stay at the table, waiting for more food that he knows there's an abundance of, finally able to relish in the thing he's been missing for so long? What will Blake Belladonna do when someone cares about her for the first time? AU.

When Judy realizes that her friendship with Nick may be something more, she must make a decision that will affect the rest of her life.

Post Volume 3. Half a year has passed since the 'Battle of Beacon'. How does the world continue after all that has happened? What's left after everything has been swept away?

Simple words. A friendly smile. It's easy to get people to trust you. All that's left is ... attending class.

Jaune wasn't exactly Blake's type, but giving him a hand was the least she could do after he helped her out... it didn't have to mean anything - no matter what Yang implied! Also would Ruby cut it out with the knowing looks, I'm just returning a favour! Blake x Jaune realistic romance, focused on their times at Beacon Academy.

Nick has recently joined the police force and his new life is beginning. Judy is the revered bunny cop who saved the city and proved those in Zootopia can really be anything. The two start solving cases together, dealing with the changes in the city, hoping things stay the same between them. However, things aren't as they seem in this city, and new stories are about to be told...

How did a single conversation in a coffee shop between a rabbit and a fox change the world so much?

Blake wakes on the eve of their graduation, and ponders the past. Jaune/Blake AU.

Nick's life seems to be going well. He's got a new job he loves, a friend who may be more than just that and an awesome family who love him. But when he investigates a case of muzzling abuse, he risks uncovering a terrible conspiracy and losing everything to a fear that he knows far too well.

Jaune was ready to die when he fell off the cliff, he was tired of the war his life had become. Of course when he fell and was offered a second chance he took it. But in typical fashion, Jaune got tricked as he failed to clarify one thing: HOW FAR BACK HE WAS ACTUALLY GOING TO GO! AU of Jaune Arc's Pain! Swearing! Time Travel fic! Troubled, Grimm, Powerful, and Skilled Jaune!

A season consists of three months. Judy and Nick found themselves separated for three months. In their season of separation, how much could have happened? (This takes place between their "breakup scene" (as named by the directors) at the press conference and then the apology scene under the bridge.)

Nicholas P. Wilde is the undisputed prankster of Precinct 1... until Judy announces that she will prank six officers in less than 24 hours. Nick insists that he can't be gotten, but he's up against a particularly sly bunny. Inspired by a classic M*A*S*H episode.

Zootopia, the city of lights, the city of dreams, the city that never sleeps. Beneath its shiny exterior, there exists a steamy underbelly. When the sun goes down, this part of the city awakens. This is a more intimate, sensual side of the city. This is a collection of shorts and scenes showcasing the more risque aspects of life in the world's greatest mammalian city. [Anthology]

A story exploring the parallels of Ruby and Jaune's lives as they try to understand what exactly it means to become a "hero." What can they do to achieve their ideals and what sacrifices will they be willing to make? (Medieval-like AU) [Ruby's half of the story]

Jaune and Pyrrha get married very young, but soon find out that not all things were meant to last. A realistic take on the Arkos relationship. [Artwork by the-stray-liger on Tumblr.] - DISCONTINUED

Even in the dark, Keep moving forward... for them … for her. Pairing: Lancaster

This is a different take on The Betrayer by TenchiSaWaDa who gave me full permission to do this. I hope you all enjoy this different path it could have taken.

It wasn't suppose to be this way, but with Croeca Mors destroyed and Ozpin giving him two months to design a new weapon to replace it, he's taking every chance he can to fix what he feels is his worst problem. Yet as Ruby helps him to build the perfect weapon, he learns more than he bargains for from his fellow Huntsmen and Huntress' about what it means to be a Huntsman.

With her parents only weeks away, and a dance quickly approaching Velvet needs prove to them that she hasn't been lying, but when she meets a certain scraggly blonde will she find more than just a friend.(ScarletKnight Pairing) This is an AU off of the series, just saying. Update very important.

A boy cheated his way to Beacon by using fake transcripts, and he uses his quick wits to become team leader. When a strong and formidable enemy sneaks into the Academy, he could not prevent himself from being abducted, along with a certain cat-Faunas, taking them through the Grimm infested forests and deep into enemy territory. (Full summary in Chapter 1).

After a routine mission goes disastrously wrong Naruto is given a new task; travel halfway across the world and attend the Beacon Huntsman Academy. Naruto soon finds his loyalty torn between two worlds; his old life and his new. With tensions rising and new enemies appearing, the bonds that he has made will be tested to their limits.

Post volume 3, just an SI on how I think Jaune should die, I also took an inspiration from a trailer of Dark Souls two so yeah have fun reading

Jaune is pretty well liked with the Faunus population in Beacon Academy. That's nice and everything but it won't help him when the White Fang make their move. Knowing that they won't be able to properly prepare their leader, Jaune's team asks Team RWBY to help train him to fight the White Fang. After some deliberation, Blake decides to help the poor knight improve his skills.

What does it mean to be a Warrior? What does it mean to be a Knight? What does it mean to be a Hero? These are the tales of one young man as he tries to find his place in the world. And along the way, he may find the answers in the forms of friends and lovers. This is the tale…of The Rising Arc

My take on what Jaune did after overhearing Weiss ask Neptune out. A bit short but subject to additions if I feel they are needed. Love it? Hate it? drop a review!

For the entirety of his three years at Beacon, Jaune has not won a single practice duel against his classmates. When Pyrrha convinces Blake to help her find out why, they discover his rare semblance- and all the danger that comes with it. New cover art by the talented Exvnir!

One change, no matter how small, can have drastic changes on the world at large. From merely staying by her partner's side and not giving into Adam's hopes of her fleeing, Blake will set upon the a journey that will save the lives of countless people. All while trying to save one from his own demons.

Jaune Arc has always dreamed about being a hero ever since he was a small boy. Thanks to the training he received from his grandfather, he was ready to attend Beacon Academy. Now he's going to have to undergo various trials in order to become a Hunter. All the while discovering the secrets of the mysterious sword that had been given to him by his grandpa.

After its fall, Beacon needed a new statue.

Oneshot. Nick and Judy have time off and they're gonna spend a solid week back in Bunnyburrow, taking it easy! But on the first morning, when Nick discovers the story behind three long scars on Judy's right cheek, things get a little heated. Especially when Gideon Grey shows up for breakfast. Nicholas has a few choice words for his fellow fox. (R&R, and wasn't this movie the best?)

During a conversation Nick and Clawhauser are having, Judy overhears some unsavory comments and Nick assumes that Judy can't handle that kind of talk since 'she's pure'. Judy isn't pleased with the assumption and insists that she can take a dirty joke as well as the rest of them. Nick decides this is an optimal time to bet her otherwise. Oh the things she learns.

Try moving in. (SPOILERS)

Both Jaune and Ren have learned how their female friends mostly feel about them, and are now on a journey to prove themselves and change those opinions. Prompt by College fool and Couer Al'Alran 'The writer's games'.

Jaune Arc was a student at Beacon University the day the world ended. Someone had named them the Grimm because they looked like things from fairytales. In this world, only two things were clear - the Grimm were infinite and the time of man was coming to an end.

After a semester at Beacon, Jaune feels that he no longer belongs to Beacon Academy and leaves, 2 years past and the whole of Remnant knows him as 'The White Knight', 'The Wanderer' and 'The Protector' but to those who knew him close his name was just…Jaune Arc. [Up for Adoption]

AU. Ruby receives a nutcracker from her godfather Ozpin on Christmas Eve. Of course, she didn't think she and her sister Yang would get wrapped up in something she'd expect to happen in her fairy tale books. Warning: different pairings inside! ON HIATUS TILL DECEMBER

These dreams won't stop... Dreams of kingdoms and hunters and monsters... What does it all mean? It's too real to be fake, yet too fake to be real. But the more I think about it, the more the duality of it all starts to make sense. Who is Jaune Arc? And why do these dreams... feel like memories? [ModernDayAU] -Knightshade Reboot- *Not an OC fic* (You'll see why)

We're just friends...right? Mild Lancaster.

It was with great displeasure that I called Jaune Arc my boss. Ever since the last Great War, finding good employment had been hard for Faunus and I was no exception. I ended up taking a look at the more desperate advertisements, only one of which I was foolish enough to accept. It looked innocuous enough, just an assistant to a private investigator who'd do simple tasks.

Jaune had always wanted to be the hero. Ride up with your gallant steed, slay the dragon, take the princess, and live happily ever after. Boom. Well, he now has the chance to literally, be a knight in shining armor.

Jaune survives a childhood tragedy and life in the wilderness with the most unlikely allies. The summoned manifestations of slain Grimm defend him through his travels until he meets a band of refugees and a criminal willing to help smuggle them into the safety of Vale - and Jaune into Beacon Academy where he finally finds purpose for the sword at his hip.

The world of Remnant is an overflowing mixture of fantasy and technology. The foreign traveler Jaune Arc learns firsthand the dangers of this new land. With the aid of his teammates, Jaune will learn the responsibilities of leadership and stand against the threat of Grimms, all the while trying to get his hunter's license. If he's lucky, he'll prove to be a man amongst men.

Remnant is no place for a Phantom Thief, but there he was, clad in black feathers and a grin wider than an Ursa. But who is he? And what is his connection to one Jaune Arc? (Let's be honest. You already know.)

A Hunter. A leader. A teammate. A Brother. He's all of these things. But now, he's stuck teaching brats. Dammit all... Summary at final chapter.

One-Shot :: Part two of my fic trade with Impunit. This fic's pairing is Winter and Jaune. Takes place in an alternate future.

The Belladonna-Arc household has always been... louder than the average family, but today is different. Today is the birthday of their patriarch, Jaune Arc. Oneshot. Knighshade (JaunexBlake)

Jaune is a lonely boy who was left out on the streets after a devastating accident. Blake was a scared girl who was thrown out of her orphanage. When the two meet an unbreakable bond is formed, along with many adventures to come!

AU: The planet is lost to the Creatures of Grimm. Humanity forced to live in space colonies. The last hope of humanity is a new spaceship made to explore the deep space and find them a new home. One young captain and his crew now need to get together and do what they can to give their people hope. Thanks to Swarley Stinson for beta reading.UP FOR ADOPTION.

Jaune's parents sent him a new telescope for his birthday. Blake has been reading a book on the stars, the constellations, and the galaxies. A quiet night. A clear sky with stars twinkling off in the distant reaches of the universe. Just the two of them.

Hey guys, this is my first fanfic so tell me how I did. This takes place in modern times in a world just like ours. This is a Jaune x Yang fic due to the fact I lacked seeing many of those.

Twenty-two Years after the Siege of the Governor's Ball in Escorts and Duelists it is time for a new class to enter Beacon's hallowed halls and pick up the mantle of Hunters and Huntresses in training. Students have journeyed from all over the world to come to the Alma Mater of the Heroic teams of RWBY and JNPR. Horrid Summary, Squeal to Of Escorts and Duels more info inside.

One day on a trip into Vale, Blake Belladonna heard a soft cry coming from an empty alleyway. After going to check it out she ends up finding the surprise of a lifetime. Now come join us as we see the wild events of this new family unfold in the halls of Beacon, the Streets of Vale, and the Hearts of everyone. Begins before Blake revealed her secret to everyone.

Jaune Arc was the descendant of heroes who never had an honest chance to be a Hunter. Jaune was just a common criminal who never had a choice in the matter. Falls from grace are never elegant, and Jaune's is no different. A story told in shorts, with an emphasis on 'short.' Now complete.

Jaune Arc lost his sight in a car accident when he was nine. As he recovered, his other senses enhanced themselves to levels beyond what he ever thought possible. How will this blind Jaune who sees more than anyone else fit into one of the most prestigious hunter academies on Remnant? Inspired by Netflix's Daredevil series.

What does it take to be a hero? What must one give up in order to defend others? What does one gain? What if you don't have the same advantages as everyone else? Jaune will have to find out whether he wants to or not. Jaune/Weiss.

The hunters of the world are known for there powers. Aura granting them the abilities to take on the Creatures of Grimm. Their semblances that set them apart. But there are those that do not have these abilities, those that are granted with the power of a far greater energy. They are the Ki Adepts. And their true strength has yet to be revealed.

Sometimes the thread of fate ends up getting twisted binding two unlikely souls together, with a series of less than subtle nudges of the unseen hand of fate, a story that would most likely never happen.

Jaune takes the characters of RWBY on a casual date (And subsequent follow up "dates") in this collection of stories. Reviews are appreciated and I would love the feedback.

Jaune and Blake are dating. No one else really gets it.

It began after I got rejected by Signal again, though at the time I had no idea what was happening. Titles and levels suddenly appeared above people's heads and then weird things began to happen, as if I was in a game. And then, I realize I was in a game. But...if my life is a game, I'm going to win it. My name's Jaune Arc and I'm the Gamer. RWBY/The Gamer.

Watch the transformation of a boy to a man, the steps he takes, the falls, the triumphs, the moments of greatness and the moments of infamy. He has gone by many names, Jäger in Weißen, Ou no Ryoushi, Seigneur des Loups, The White Wolf, Hero, Savior, Monster, Beast, but he started with just a couple, Fearless, before that Guardian, before that Vomit boy, and his true name Jaune Arc.

"I told you before, little brother. You have nothing to fear if you have nothing to lose. And here you are, fearful as ever. Looks like I'm going to have to teach you again." -Felix Arc. I do not own RWBY. Rated T but may change depending on how dark I want this to go.

Sometimes just a bunch of drinks, girl problems and a curiosity can create new bonds.

Teams RWBY and JNPR are in their fourth year at Beacon, learning, growing and enjoying their time. However, when Torchwick breaks out of prison, foes that the two teams had thought long gone come back to haunt them. As they face a threat unlike any Remnant has seen before, the teams will struggle to survive while fighting to save a world that becomes more and more dangerous.

The story of how clumsy Jaune became a warrior with the help of his teammates and friends. There will be some romance. This is my first fanfic so all types of reviews are welcome. UPDATE: First 7 chapters are mostly canon. If you really wanted to skip that then go to chapter 8

As Remnant enjoys its time of peace through efforts that barely tame the Grimm forces, one aspiring Huntsman trains to use the enemy as his strength. However, who will stand beside him while he struggles to control his descent into the maddening darkness? In a world where the bright moon grows dim, and the most dangerous enemies are those not seen, a Grimm Knight awakens to fight.

What if Jaune Arc can't talk?

The end of the War saw Naruto thrust into the Bending World. Can he help the Avatar bring Balance to the world? Read to find out. NarutoXKorra (Bender-Naruto)

Maybe one day he'll be everything she ever wanted in life. But today is not that day.

The search for a famously elusive band brings two music lovers together in what might be the most eventful night of their lives. Based somewhat loosely off of Nick and Norah's infinite playlist. [Infinite Playlist AU]

The Mission was to guard a train shipment, to carry a vital package for the higher ups in Atlas. What would have been a simple mission turns into a nightmare for team RWBY, JNPR and CRDL. M For Violence and Language. Mainly action oriented. Other themes if you squint. Post-Breach. Complete

College isn't cheap; especially when you're learning how to save the world. Jaune Arc knows he's going to need some extra cash to make it through his second year at Beacon, so when a new coffee shop opens up in Vale, he jumps on the opportunity. Working under a powerful information broker though, he quickly learns there are easier ways to make money than making java.

Seven years after the graduation of Team RWBY and JNPR, a lovable idiot sets off on a quest for revenge as one of the only remaining generals willing to stand against the White Fang and their new leader. Rated M for language and some violence that should be amped up in future chapters.

Jaune invites Pyrrha to come celebrate the end of year holidays with his family. Pyrrha, despite her nerves, couldn't imagine wanting something more. But as they set out on his boat, headed for home, she comes to realise the trip would be a journey in more ways than one. Made for the /r/RWBY January MonCon!

A long dreaded period of Blake Belladonna's life quickly spirals into becoming the most awe-striking, self-discovery journeys of love and passion she has ever experienced. In the heat of passion and frenzied sensation, she learns that true love can appear in the most unassuming and mysterious of places, long after the heat has died down. Namely, in the place of Mister Jaune Arc.

Jaune has tried so many times before, but has always been rejected. Should he even keep trying? BlakexJaune fic. Thanks to TheeUberNoob and Kaylice. Title inspired by The Arctic Monkeys.

Ruby goes to pay a routine visit to her old friend.

It's hard to deliver simple message to a house full of eccentric sisters. It's even harder when a certain blonde brawler is sitting on your lap, teasing you. Harder still is it to know exactly what the blonde brawler is planning by making everyone go to your house for new years. CHAPTER 2 IS AND UPDATE CHAPTER. ABANDONED!

For one Jaune Arc, a fugitive of his past, and victim of his demons, staying alive will be his main priority and the road that will guide to fulfill his destiny. The line between good and evil was never so bleak.

How will the world change when a battle hardened Naruto from the future comes to the past? With a change of name and appearance this old Naruto will help the Naruto of this new Konoha become the shinobi he was destined to be all the while trying to fit into this new world where those he knew as dead are alive and well. Time travel fic.

Being from a family of heroes, Jaune had long ago realized that heroism wasn't all it was cracked up to be. It was just plain sense to take a safer course in life. Unfortunately, nobody bothered to tell him that the world just didn't make sense. Inspired by the Ciaphas Cain series of Warhammer 40K. (pairings undecided)

Blake is a masochist, Jaune a sadist. Watch what happens when the two of them start going out and learn this about each other, and continue to watch as Pyrrha figures it out too. *BONDAGE SMUT*

Nearly five years has passed since the end of the Fourth Great Ninja War and an unprecedented peace has settled across much of the land. But when an old enemy returns in search of an ancient power that could reveal the dark truth behind the lost Namikaze Clan, The Seventh Hokage must rise to shield the world from destruction once again. This is Book IV of the series.

Jaune wanted to be the hero, like his family always had been. Protecting the weak, doing what was right, and slaying monsters just seemed right to him. It was only now that he saw that the true monsters were the ones ruling Remnant, and that they were just as cruel and vicious as the worst of Grimm. After all that had happened, Jaune was going to stop them, no matter the cost.

So after seeing several prompts on iFunny and with people liking Arachnophobia, I've decided to make this a thing. Anyway they will be one-shots around Jaune and not all of them will be Arkos, all will be meaningful and some might be humorous/ enjoyable.

The war's over, but who said rebuilding would be easy? Shikamaru's losing a chess match to an unknown opponent and Ino's a fly in the SPIDER's web. Hinata joins ANBU where Sasuke is betrayed by a ninja he trusts. Naruto battles to determine the role of jinchuriki after the peace treaty's been signed; Sakura fights to save him from himself.

After the defeat of Madara, Naruto and the entire united ninja world are left the task of rebuilding what they have lost, and starting anew. Will peace last? And will the ninja of the world be prepared for a mysterious new threat? Naru/Saku. Rated M for violence, language, and possible explicit material later.

Soon to be Updated.

With Konoha on the edge of war, Naruto was sent to aid an ally in a different fight, and went missing in battle.
