Guardian Ghost
Ozma: *appears in ghost form* So, when is your wife coming back?
Jaune: *Confused* my what?
Ozma: You know, your wife, you have that rather... seductive painting of her *points at Jaune's poster of Nebula in Huntresses Weekly* So when is she coming back?
Jaune: *Doesn't have any idea how to explain to Ozma* Uuhh...
XXX
Ozma: What are those?
Jaune: Chicken nuggets
Ozma: Are they shaped like dinosaurs?
Jaune: Yeah
Ozma: How adorable!
XXX
Ozma: *Possessing Jaune* Ok, don't get mad...
Jaune: *In his head* What did you do!?
*Ozma/Jaune sitting in a prison cell covered in blood*
XXX
Ozma: You know, your taste in women is very peculiar
Jaune: What do you mean?
Ozma: Well you seem to be, as Yang puts it, a "Bottom" as you have fantasy of Arslan dominating you in bed, but you also seem to have a fantasy of dominating Reese and May-
Jaune: *Mortified* Please... for the love of the brothers just shut up...!
XXX
Jaune: *Missing his right hand and the fingers on his left* Ozma... I'm scared... I-I don't want to die... *begins to cry*
Ozma: *Slowly possessing Jaune's body* Don't worry, I won't let that happen... *Begins to glow bright green as he glares at Adam*
XXX
Context: Ozma doesn't reincarnate till the modern day (current era) and he gets reincarnated into Jaune, Salem isn't the Queen of Grimm and is still waiting for Ozma, Jaune's goal is to live his life to his fullest before Ozpin completely takes over while helping Ozma find Salem. While Ozma wants to help Jaune live his dream before he eventually takes over.

so i was thinking about the similarities between cinder and zuko, and then i was thinking about zukka, and then i thought "why isn't cinder in any red and blue parings?" and then i realized RWBY doesn't have many red and blue gays because it has colors woven directly into the plot and it uses the color wheel. we have red and green gays instead
Tumblr media
a bunch of these are a bit of a stretch, and there's lots of characters this theory doesn't work for, but you can see there's a pattern here !! you find a character, look at the opposite side of the wheel, and there's someone they're closely associated with. blake and yang are confirmed to be soulmates with their complimenting aura colors, so that lines up too. i just think it's neat!!WAIT I FORGOT ABOUT WHITEROSE. but whiterose could also work with this theory because ruby's eyes are silver and weiss's old primary color was white...

Oscar couldn’t have fallen into the Ever After because the Blacksmith would’ve taken one look at Ozma and been like “let’s get you a permanent body my dude” and yanked him out of Oscar’s head and the merge/reincarnation plot line would’ve been over.

RWBY Shion’s Allusion
Tumblr media
*Shion is canonically non-binary, so I will be using they/them to address this character
Shion Zaiden is a character introduced in RWBY’s recent anime spinoff, Ice Queendom. Their occupation is a special kind of huntsman. Using their dream catcher, they hunt Grimm that occupy people’s bodies and minds.
Besides this, we know next to nothing about this unique character. So today let’s see if we can possibly find an allusion to tie them with and possibly find any source of motives or possible backstory.
Let’s go through what we know about Shion. As said before they are a huntsman that specializes in Possession type Grimm, the Nightmare, due to their unique dream wandering semblance. Shion also seems to have a fairly unique fashion sense, sporting large portions of drapey purple topped with a pointed almost witch-like hat. After doing some tough research, I think I found a good candidate.
Tumblr media
Let me introduce you to Woot the Wanderer from The Tin Man of Oz, the twelfth entry of the Wizard of Oz books. Woot the Wanderer is a boy from Gillikan Country who travels around the world of dreams, the Lands of Oz, in search of new experiences and people. 
Tumblr media
The people of Gillikan Country are represented by the color purple. Shion wears a lot of heavy purples, just like the Gillikan people. Shion is also named after the purple flower, Aster Tataricus. Additionally, Woot is often depicted with a large cone hat and walking staff, which translates into Shion’s witch hat and dreamcatcher.
Tumblr media
Shion was called by Ozpin, which connects the Wizard of Oz characters together. After helping team RWBY, Shion ventures out to Remnant in search of other Nightmares, such as Woot venturing out into the World of Oz for adventure.
Woot is only in one of the Oz books, so in a way it’s fitting that Shion is sort of one and done. Still, they were a pleasent addition to the cast, and I hope we can see more of them in the future, maybe even in the OG show proper.

The Promise
Inside a cabin with a group of people all with a sad expression on their faces, a young man is looking at rain through the window.
?: it's almost as all of Remnant is crying.
Just then a woman came out from another room and walk toward to the young man.
Woman: my grandfather would see now.
The young man walks into the room and saw an old man laying in his bed breathing heavily.
Old man: I'm sorry I forgot what's the name this one again?
?:(smile) it's oswald but you know you can call by my real name.
Old man: good to see again Ozma.
Ozma: it's good to see you to Lewis.
Ozma took a seat next to bed
Ozma: I came as fast as I could as soon as I got your letter.
Lewis: I ain't got much time, what I'm about to ask you would be hard to believe.
Ozma:(giggling) Lewis, I'm an immortal Who Sold possess a new body after dying, I think I will believe what you're about to say.
Lewis: there's a young man(coughing)...his name is Jaune Arc, I request that you accept him into Beacon.
Ozma: I will, this Arc kid must be really special where did you meet him.
Lewis: this is where the hard to believe part comes in, I met him in the Ever After.
Ozma: that's impossible you were 17 when you went to the Ever After and the only other human there beside you and Alyx was(realizing) The Rusted Knight.
Lewis: I didn't realize till after I return to Remnant but I think Jaune came from the future.
Ozma: what make you think that?
Lewis: because I ask him where he learn to fight, he said he use to go to Beacon Academy.
Ozma expression change to shock.
Lewis: when Alyx and I fell Beacon Academy was build but wasn't open yet, so how did he become a huntsman?
Ozma: Unless he came from the future.
Lewis soon started having trouble breathing then grab Ozma hand.
Lewis: ......promise....me...you will accept...Jaune Arc.
Ozma: I promise.
Ozma called out to Lewis family as they came into the room, Lewis breathing less and less.
With his last breath Lewis tell his family that he loves them all and just like that he was gone.
Ozma: I promise Lewis.
-------------------------------------------------------
200 years later
Now as Ozpin, He is looking through transcripts for new students then glynda walks in.
Glynda: so have decided who to accept into the school.
Ozpin: almost.
Glynda: almost! Ozpin We got to start sensing Acception letters soon before the year starts.
Ozpin: Calm down Glynda I only got one spot left to fill I just can't decide who to pick.
He looked up and saw glynda was holding and on envelope.
Ozpin: what do got there?
Glynda: This is a late entry I was about to threw it away.
Ozpin: can I see wouldn't hurt to take a look.
Glynda:(handed him him the envelope) can you pick someone already like her, Cinder fall look she'll make a good student........
As Glynda keep talking Ozpin open the envelope and was shock to see the name on the transcript Jaune Arc he couldn't believe it.
Ozpin begin reading it and could tell that this transcript is fake but couldn't help feel a little impressed in how Determine Jaune is to get into Beacon.
Ozpin: I decided he would be will accepted.
Glynda: but he missed the deadline.
Ozpin: true but as headmaster it's my decision.
He handed Glynda the transcript and she leaves.
Ozpin lean back into his chair and took a ship of his coffee, he doesn't know how or when Jaune would end up in the Ever After but All he cares about right now is that he finally fulfilled a promise to a friend.
Ozpin: Welcome to Beacon MR.Arc.

RWBY Winter Tales
May the Power Protect You
Ozma struggled to his feet as he crawled through the mud.
Salem: It's over, Ozma. You and your precious warriors have failed. Why don't you just accept your defeat and stop prolonging your suffering?
Ozma continued crawling, desperate to get away from Salem. She looked over him and shook her head. His self-righteous streak was admirable, yet infuriating. She took a few steps and grabbed her spear, stamping onto him. Raising it high, she plunged it sharply into his back. A visceral scream escaped his mouth. Blood seeped out from his back and deep into the mud, his breathing became weaker and his vision was fading. With the little strength he had, he clasped his hands together and uttered a spell.
Ozma: I call upon you... *coughs violently* the power of the Ancients... *coughs violently* guide my hand so that I may find someone worthy to carry on the legacy of the Rangers... go with my blessing and may the Power protect you....
Faint lights of the colours red, white, black and yellow appeared from his hands and scattered up into the sky. With one last smile, Ozma succumbed to his wounds and died.
[Remnant 207 M.A.]
Ruby walked beside Blake as they were returning home from shopping. Throughout the journey, Ruby was holding onto Blake's arm to stabilise herself on the slippery, icy pavement.
Blake: Ruby, you should've put on your new boots.
Ruby: I didn't want the ice to wreck them.
Blake: You sure you didn't want an excuse to grab onto my arm.
Ruby: Wha-? No! I- *mad blushing*
Blake: *small chuckle* Relax, I'm just teasing you.
Ruby: Hmmmmph! J-Just keep walking!
Blake and Ruby made it to the Rose-Xiao Long house and gave each other short hugs before they were about to go their separate ways.
Ruby: B-Blake, wait! Um... do you- uh. *shuffles foot*
Blake: Yes, Ruby?
Ruby: D-Do you, uh... *sighs* never mind, I'll see you tomorrow.
Ruby opened the door and was greeted by the grinning faces of her parents, Taiyang and Summer, and half-sister, Yang.
Yang: So??? Give me the good news!
Ruby: ...I didn't ask her out.
Tai: Aww, sweetie. Come here. *hugs Ruby*
Ruby: I just froze up again... Blake will never go for me.
Yang: Hey don't say that. Listen, Ruby, you're a great girl. You're cute, smart, funny and no one has as much enthusiasm for ancient Remnant weapons as much as you do. Blake's bound to get a kick out of that as a history geek herself.
Ruby: *giggles*
Yang: Don't be too hard on yourself. Everyone gets nervous.
Tai: Yang's right, sweetheart. Lord knows how much of a wreck I was before I asked out your mom.
Summer: Oh he's not kidding, it's quite the tale. Come on over, the Shepherd's pie is getting cold.
Ruby: Thanks everyone. You really know how to help out.
They sat together for a warm, delicious meal. With one bite, Ruby hummed as she felt the troubles of her day melt away. After they had finished, they all gathered around the TV to watch the latest news. Several UFOs had been sighted all across Remnant.
Ruby: You really think aliens are out there?
Yang: *shrugs* Who knows? Though if they did exist, I'll challenge them to race with my trusty Flamethrower. Spaceship vs motorcycle!
Ruby: *rolls eyes* Of course you would.
Ruby decided to leave the living room for a while in order to put away the shopping she had bought. As she walked upstairs, she saw a faint, glowing red light from the corner of her bedroom door. She felt a lump in her throat and her heartbeat started racing. Slowly, Ruby crept forward and reached out her hand against the door. A gentle push followed and she dropped the bags. Sitting on her bed was a bright red, watch-like device, with a rose emblem at the center.
Ruby: ...What the hell? *slowly takes the device*
Device: *humming sound* Now accessing Morphing Grid. Match in progress. *whirring* Match complete. Subject is matched with The Power of Roses. Red Ranger confirmed.

With the way Arslan is acting, it seems like sooner or later she would kabedon Jaune the next time they pass each other in the hall. Many around think that she is going to punch him, but she wants to do something else to him.
Arslan: *Standing over a cowering Jaune with a fierce glare and breathing heavily*
Jaune: *Scared but smiling nervously* H-Hey Arslan... What's up?
Arslan: *Still breathing heavily* I'm gonna eat you alive
Jaune: *Now suddenly scroused*
Ozma: *Having flashbacks when Salem got dominant* Oh... he really is like me...

Sometimes i think about how so much of RWBY was probably inspired by Zelda. (Maybe not but I'm a hardcore zelda fan, and i will associate everything i like) and i love it bc it's not...too obvious? Like, you can clearly point out the similarities and even after noticing them you don't see RWBYs story as a copy or anything (bc this is probably a strech BUT I DONT CARE)
The two brothers /the spirits of the relics -> the three goddeses
The blacksmith / the brothers -> hylia
The two brothers represent different aspects of life and the world -> so do the brothers, they divide their work
The triforce -> the relics
Gathering all of them has very important and potentially horrible consequences but it also can be used for good -> both the triforce and the relics
The pieces by itself can grant some sort of power or effect on the wielder -> the pieces of the triforce represent the goddeses and grant powers (using the light power, super strength, being able to wield a legendary weapon) / each relic has it's own purpose
An innocent soul drunken by power who is also a victim of an ancient god-like entity who seeks reuniting all the pieces of the triforce/relics -> salem / ganondorf
Someone who ended up being cursed to live again and again and again, as a mortal inmortal being whose purpose is to stop the great evil that is threatening the world -> hylia / zelda and ozma
Hm, and somebody innocent who due to this original curse was thrown into all this mess, starting to aquire memories from years and years and decades and centuries before they were born that belong to someone that is merging with them so that innocent person becomes the next soul in the curse and has to stop this great evil because is their fate? -> zelda (skyward sword) and oscar I'm looking at you two
And you're telling me that there were lies and manipulation involved? -> zelda again and ozpin I'm looking at you both
And who did you involved in all this? A brave warrior with a heart of gold and a simple and peaceful background and life who ALSO HAPPENS to be gifted at fighting who carries something unique, the only thing capable of harming that great evil?? Hmmm... -> ruby, link, I'm looking at you both
And you're telling me that having that thing is not as easy as it seems and you need to unlock it and learn how to unleash it's true potential? -> maybe like the silver eyes? Or maybe the master sword?
And you're telling me that these two souls are bonded by fate to meet and have A LOT of pararells and they complement each other? -> ruby and oscar I'm looking at you
And you're telling me that their story resembles and is a pararell to the original story of lovers? -> ozma/Salem - ruby/Oscar and the first link/hylia -zelda/link
And you're telling me that the soul who merges with this magical ancient being also carries light themed magic? -> zelda? Oscar? Explain
AND YOU'RE TELLING ME THAT EVEN IF THERE'S A MAIN HERO, THEY CANNOT DO IT ALONE AND THEY NEED HELP?
Hmmm like RUBY AND ALL HER TEAMMATES AND LINK AND HIS COMPANIONS?
Oh, and you're also telling me that there are very important and powerful people who carry a fraction of the power of the gods? Like the maidens? Or like maybe the sages? (I'm not including the champions bc botw came out after rwby)
So yeah, there's some similarities. And i LOVE IT
Also i ship zelink and rosegarden and I CAN ASSURE YOU. THEY'RE THE SAME. SAME DYNAMIC, SAME VIBE, THEY'RE SO DEAR TO ME OH MY GOD.

Something I’ve always thought was the most interesting takeaway from watching The Girl in the Tower was that it REALLY got me thinking about all the actual parallels that can be drawn between Salem and RUBY.
Because as far as RWBY villains go, Cinder acts as the diametric, ideological opposite and foil to Ruby: The girl who strives to see the best in people and the world and is practically the embodiment of optimism and positivity pitted against a girl who is the product of all the WORST parts of humanity, has known nothing BUT negativity and pain her entire life and embodies negativity and cynicism as much as Ruby embodies positivity.
But the more information we get, I’m thinking that Salem on the other hand might well be Ruby’s evil counterpart. Whereas Ruby and Cinder are practically opposites, Ruby and Salem are looking to be all too similar.
For one, just look at how The Girl in the Tower emphasizes Salem’s love of books and stories, just as Ruby does. It seems that both Ruby and Salem grew up enamored with stories of heroes and adventures and were inspired by those stories to go out and have adventures themselves.
And when we look at just what they have done, I think we see that Ruby and Salem actually have very similar abilities. For one, both have shown to be quite capable at rallying followers to a cause. Salem was able to rally all of humanity to take up arms against the Gods in her time, just as Ruby is working to rally all of humanity in her time against Salem. And just as Ruby has drawn a close nit group of trusted friends to her side, so too does Salem draw in a select group of loyal followers.
Not to mention both Ruby and Salem have shown themselves to be quite adept at not only inspiration, but manipulation as well. One of Salem’s greatest strengths has always been her ability to manipulate and exploit the flaws of her enemies, subtly undermining them and turning them against themselves and each other. A skill that Ruby has likewise displayed several times in recent volumes. From baiting Cordovin into revealing her mech’s weakpoint with a heroic speech, to breaking up the Ace Ops in their fight so she and her team could pick them off one-by-one, to basically playing Ironwood like a fiddle in the gambit to save Penny and evacuate Mantle and Atlas.
Heck, when we see Ruby and Salem finally meet in person, Ruby basically uses a number of Salem’s own tricks against her. Ruby even needles Salem’s insecurities by bringing up the Lamp and how ‘we’ve seen you fail’. When you actually put Salem’s ‘Just accept your ----- and this can all be over’ and Ruby’s ‘We don’t need to kill you to stop you. And we will stop you’ lines side-by-side, they feel VERY similar.
And lest we forget, Ruby actually did manage to get under Salem’s skin with her little speech. Just look at Salem’s reaction to it: No highbrow, self-assured declaration of how her enemies have no hope of beating her. Just a frustrated, petty jab at Ruby’s mother.
When we look at a scene like the one in Midnight where Salem manipulates Cinder with surgical precision, I can’t help but feel like we’re seeing a ‘what if Ruby used her powers for evil?’ situation. Where Ruby has had thousands of years to hone her keen insight into how people think and is using that insight to manipulate those around her with horrifying skill and finesse.
And when we look at the physical abilities that Ruby and Salem have exhibited, I think we can find even more parallels.
Going back to Salem’s time rallying humanity against the Gods, she did so using a power that came from the God of Light; her Immortality. Just as Ruby wields her silver eyes, a power that likewise came from the God of Light.
And speaking of Salem’s immortality, I can’t help but think that Ruby’s semblance might well function in an almost identical fashion. After all, we’ve seen Salem come back from being a literal charred smear on the ground or being basically vaporized. If Ruby’s semblance allows her to deconstruct and reconstruct herself at a molecular level, I get the feeling Ruby might actually be capable of the same regenerative feats that Salem has shown.
Finally, going back to The Girl in the Tower, I can actually see some parallels between Salem and Ruby in how they may have been ‘imprisoned’. Now on the one hand, there are some direct parallels that can be drawn between Ruby’s and Salem’s childhoods; Both lost their mothers at a very long age and were raised by a father who was wracked with grief over that loss. Though on the other hand, from what we’ve seen it doesn’t seem like Tai was in any way ‘overly protective’ of Ruby or Yang, at least not nearly as Salem’s father seems to have been. But then again, Tai hasn’t been all that big a presence in the story we’ve seen.
Consider the following: Just as Salem was physically imprisoned by her father, Ruby spends the first major chunk of the series figuratively and narratively imprisoned by a symbolic father-figure in the form of Ozpin, a man who might not be related by blood to Ruby, but who nonetheless serves as a prominent mentor and guide to Ruby in the early volumes of the show.
Both Salem’s father in the past and Ozpin in the present are old men who are fearful that the young girls under their care will come to harm and thus go to extreme and ultimately harmful lengths to ‘protect’ them. In the case of Salem’s father, he imprisoned his daughter in a tower to hide her away from the possible dangers of the world. In the case of Ozpin, he tried to hide his students, namely Ruby, away from the truth of the world and the dangers represented by that truth, ie; Salem.
This becomes all the more relevant when we consider that Oz seems to have designed Beacon Academy to look just like the castle Salem was imprisoned in. Without ever realizing it, I think it’s fair to say that Oz eventually became all too similar to the very man he once rescued Salem from all those eons ago.
And the parallels continue when we consider the final lines of ‘The Girl in the Tower’; Ozma tells Salem “You freed yourself,” stating that Salem took control of her destiny by reaching out for someone to help her. And just look at what Ruby does in Volume 6. The moment Ruby asked Jinn “What is Ozpin hiding from us?”, she is no longer following Ozpin’s lead and has effectively seized control of the story for herself.
For much of ‘The Girl in the Tower’, Salem’s father tries to control her destiny. And for the first five volumes of RWBY, Oz effectively tries to control the narrative of the story. Essentially, it is Ozpin who is effectively driving and maintaining the simple, straight-forward ‘fantasy high-school’ genre that defines the Beacon Arc. He keeps major secrets that would upend the entire status-quo of the current narrative, all because he believes it is for the heroine’s own good and safety. He is desperate to maintain a flawed and ultimately unsustainable status quo. Because despite Ozpin’s efforts, the reality of the dangers facing our heroines still came calling and destroyed that status quo.
And even after the Fall of Beacon, we can say that Ozpin was still desperate to maintain that control over the ‘narrative’ of the story for what he believes is the heroine’s own good. No matter how much it gets them hurt or even killed. Just as Salem’s father was so desperate to protect her, no matter how much he hurt her and others in the process.
Until both Salem and Ruby effectively take control of their stories, wresting control away from their literal and symbolic father-figures.
So what do all these parallels mean going forward? I think it means that Salem will ultimately be positioned as Ruby’s true rival and ‘evil counterpart’. And we will be shown that Ruby and Salem are ‘not so different’. I think it’s all too easy to imagine Ruby’s efforts to unite humanity against Salem being painted as all too similar to Salem’s efforts to unite humanity against the Gods.
Imagine when we get the inevitable showdown between Ruby and Salem, it is Ruby who does that ‘we are not so different…’ line that truly rattles Salem like nothing else in the show has?
Finally, these parallels massively reframe the narrative dynamic between Ruby, Salem and Ozma/Ozpin/Oscar, and how the latter could NEVER have been the ‘hero’ of this story.
Ozma wound up becoming little different from the man who imprisoned Salem all those years ago. Ruby on the other hand, is all too similar to Salem herself.

What are those AU, you know I find it pretty ironic that Jaune is a dragon Faunus but is still training to be a knight, because in fairy tales it’s always the knight that slays the big bad dragon, but since Jaune is both it makes me wonder just what kind of big bad Jaune will need to overcome.
It’s Just His Nature
The Grimm Lands.
Salems castle was under attack by a combined force of Hunters from across the world along with the might of the, Atlas Army along with several high ranking, and highly skilled members of the, White Fang.
They were here to finish the centuries long shadow war between the witch, and the wizard, and upon this day the war would finally come to an end.
Just not how any of them expected it to end.
Ozpin: Come on! We’ve nearly won this war!
Dozens hunters,and soldiers ran to doors leading to, Salem’s throne room, but before they entered, Headmaster Ozpin of Beacon Academy stood before them all to given them a final speech before the upcoming battle.
Ozpin: We are here, just beyond these doors lay our dreaded foe! From here on out we will fight out enemy, and we will…?!
: Oh shut up will ya!
The fellow who interrupted, Ozpin’s little speech stared at, Ozpin with a highly annoyed glare with his sharp deep blue eyes. His gold hair was flanked by a matching pair off-white horns that ran up the side of his head, peaking into a crown of three points that bore a golden hue. Giving this rather extraordinary faunas his own natural golden crown.
For he was a king. For before, Ozpin stood, King Jaune Arc, Dragon King of the Faunas. And, he was not amused.
Jaune: You’ve given over a dozen speeches for every five meters we’ve manage to take. If I have to listen to one more long winded speech I’m going to take my forces, and leave you here. But, not before I cut up your face to the point that it makes an, Apathy look handsome!
Jaune flexed his hand letting his claws flash threatening before, Ozpin’s face. With a threatening glint in his eyes as he dared anyone to face him.
It had been years since, Jaune graduated from, Beacon Academy, and even longer since he was inducted into, Ozpin’s little cabal. He had long since lost his willings to deal with, Ozpin, and his bullshit as a result of it.
And, all, Ozpin could do was gulp nervously as a series of eyes belonging to the, King’s Guard agree with their, King, and glared dangerously at the old man.
Ozpin: …
Ozpin: Okay then…
The doors to, Salem’s throne room exploded open as several individuals came rushing in to find the Queen of the Grimm sitting upon her throne looking at the intruders as if they had just come in, and served her cold tea.
Salem: Ozma… I see you’ve finally grown a spine, and decided to take the battle to my door step. How kind of you…
Ozpin: Enough, Salem! You reign of tyranny ends now! Surrender, or face our wrath!
Salem laughed hauntingly echoed throughout the hall as she rose to her feet, and descended from her throne crystal throne. Her blood red eyes stared at, Ozpin’s as an amused smile spread across her face.
Salem: And, how do you plan to do that? You know I’m immortal; You can decapitate me, crush me, incinerate me, and so many other colourful ways you could kill a person, and I would simply shrug it off as a mild inconvenience. So, what could you possibly do to stop me?
Ozpin: I will trap you in a hell that you fear more than any other.
Salem: I’m a immortal who has lived for thousands of years; I have lived through a hell unlike any other! What kind of hell do you possibly think could be worse than the life I was forced to endure?!
Ozpin: Back to where I should have left you… Back to your cage in the high tower!
Salem’s eyes widened in pure fear. A emotion that she had not yet felt in millennia. Ozpin’s threat was one that struck at the heart of her. For how better to wound her more than she already was, but to be trapped in the cage she longed to be freed from, by the very man who once set her free. And, that thought stroked the flames of rage within, Salem unlike ever before felt.
Salem: You dare…? You dare…?! You dare to threaten me! Threaten me to lock me in a tower away for all time, and eternity?!! You will die a thousand deaths, this world would burn a thousand times over before I let you imprison me once again!!! I swear you will, Ozma!!!!
Ozpin: Bring it you foul fiend for I will…?!
Jaune: Hold up! Hold up now… Before we begin I have some questions I’d like some answers too.
The Dragon king walked between the quarrying couple with his hands out stretched in a non-threatening posture as he addressed the pair.
Ozpin: Mr. Arc?! What the hell are you doing?!
Jaune: You shut up, or I’ll gouge out your eyes.
Jaune glared threateningly at, Ozpin before he turned to address, Salem.
Jaune: Okay, Ozpin told me about your past relationship. Of which I blame, Ozpin, and the Gods for most of your problems…
Ozpin: E-Excuse me?!
Jaune: But: ‘Locked away in a tower?’ What is that all about? Ozpin told me most of the world’s fairytales were made by him, so would that mean that you are, ‘The Princess in the High Tower?’ Or, ‘The Girl in the High Tower,’ which ever title you prefer. The fairytale is a title of a difference.
Salem rage faded just ever so slightly as she gazed at the rather curious looking faunas before her.
Salem: Yes… Yes I am… Was! I was, ‘The Princess of the High Tower.’ Why does that matter? Who I was back then no longer matters; that life has long since been dead, and buried. It doesn’t matter anymore…
Jaune: I can gather that, but, Ozpin… Ozpin, was the knight who saved you from the tower…?
Salem: He was the one who saved me.
Jaune: I see…
A devious smile spread across, Jaune’s face as something, some deep unknown switch in his mind was flipped on.
Ozpin: Mr. Arc… Why are you smiling about…?
Jaune: Oh… Just realizing how many many stereotypes I tend to inhabit… Seemingly out of nature, and desire than anything else. Hmmph… Ain’t that a weird thought?
Ozpin: W-What are you talking about?
Jaune: Well, since I can’t be the knight who saves the princess, I’ll just be the dragon who steals the princess instead~!
Ozpin: What the hell are you talking about?!
Jaune: This~!
(CRACK!)
Ozpin: OH GODS?!!
(Thud!)
Salem: Ohhh… His next reincarnation is going to feel that~!
After, Jaune’s swift, and incapacitating kick to, Ozpins nuts, in the blink of an eye, Jaune ran over, and picked up, Salem who gave a startled shriek as, Jaune ran for the door.
Salem: W-What?! Hey! Put me done this instant!
Jaune: She’s mine! She mine: She minnnne~!
As, Jaune bolted out the door, his royal guard quickly followed after him, throwing a smoke grenade behind the to hide their presence as they disappeared. By the time Ozpin, and his combined forces could give chase, Jaune’s forces had sabotaged all of their aircraft engines, and made their escape.
And, as, Ozpin watched, Jaune Arc, and his forces make their escape with the, Queen of the Grimm, he made the one thought on his mind vocal for all to hear.
Ozpin: …
Ozpin: What the fuck just happened…?
~~~
One Year Later.
~~~
In the hills of, Menagerie, over looking the town of, Kuo Kuana, lay the castle, Ásgeirr, home of the Dragon King, and his brood.
And, the one place in all of, Remnant, Ozpin so desperately wanted to get into. But, considering the ever so watchful guards, Ozpin had not been able to get close in the slightest. And, fear from an uprising of the faunas population across the four kingdoms, Ozpin couldn’t persuade them for an all out attack. And, many of his students tended to come from, Menagire, and benefited greatly from the, Dragon King’s rule so it was impossible for him to have his students help him. So, he would have to brave this alone. And, this time, this time he would get into Arc’s castle!
And, he would!
Only he was bound, sorely beaten, dragged into the castle.
It wasn’t how he would have preferred to get into the castle, but it worked.
He was dragged up to a balcony that over looked the city of, Kuo Kuana. Standing on the edge was the, Dragon King looking over his domain. He stood there for a moment before looking down at the intruder that dared threaten his kingdom, and his family with his shear presence.
Jaune: You know… If you wanted to see me, you could have just scheduled an appointment. That would have been far easier to do compared to everything else you have been trying to do.
Ozpin: How could I trust you to let me in?! The last time I saw you, you kicked me in the balls, picked up, Salem, and ran away with her. I fail to see how, asking you politely if I could come in to see you would have worked!
Jaune: Mmm… Fair, fair. Sometimes I just lose my mind when what one would see as a dragon stereotypes comes into play.
Ozpin: And, that’s why you kidnapped, Salem?
Jaune: The Princess, and the Dragon tropes; Yeah, that’s pretty much why I did it.
Ozpin: And, then you refused to let anyone see her! Much less know what you did with her! Do you think that helped you win any battles!
Jaune: Well, actually she didn’t want to see you, or anyone else for that matter. And, she likes her privacy, so why should I tell you what we’ve been up to. Besides I was keeping you safe by keeping you away from her.
Ozpin: I can handle her, you didn’t need to concern yourself with that!
Jaune: No, I was keeping you safe from me.
Ozpin: Safe from you? Why?!
Jaune: I’ll put it to you simply; You so much as breath on her, and I will hunt your reincarnations down for the rest of my life. And, the only thing I would ever regret is that no matter how many times I could kill you, you would eventually get away, because you would outlive me.
Ozpin: What are you talking about?
Jaune nodded his head behind him, and Ozpin’s turned, and saw Salem resting comfortably in a fainting couch. A cool drink lay in her hand as she basked in the warm sun, and the cool sea breeze. She smile softly as she waved to, Ozpin. Her smile only growing as she saw his eyes widen in shock as he noticed the noticeable bump on her stomach.
Ozpin: Salem?! You’re pregnant?!
Salem: Quite an astute observation from you, Ozma. I’m impressed.
Ozpin: W-What… But, how?!
Jaune: Considering you were a father multiple times, Ozpin, one would think you would understand how it works.
Ozpin: Not that. How did you two get together?
Jaune: Well, while the urge to grab her, and run like hell was certainly something dragon faunas related, unlike you I knew what, Salem’s greatest pain was.
Ozpin: Her greatest pain.
Jaune: Yes. Salem’s greatest pain she ever had to endure : Loneliness.
Ozpin: Loneliness…?
Jaune: Yes, loneliness.
Salem: A pain that I never even fully knew I suffered under. Until my darling King pointed it out to me.
Ozpin: Why was that your greatest pain?
Jaune: Think, Ozpin think! She was trapped all alone in that towers for years. Then one day she is freed from her life of solitude, then you died, and she was all alone again. She fought the gods to have you back, but they refused, then they cursed her to live forever, alone. Years passed, and you finally came back, only to betray her, and leave her all alone once more. Salem’s life has been one of sadness born of loneliness, rage born from betrayal, and unjust punishment. And, pain from unobtainable dreams through no fault of her own. And, now I will right the wrongs that, Salem has been forced to endure. Not because I believe I must do so for the good of the world, or some other bullshit like that. But, because I love her, and I want her to be happy.
Salem shed a few tears of joy as her beloved husband came over, and gave her a passionate kiss filled with love, and compassion for such a broken soul.
Ozpin: But, she is still her, Grimmified version of herself! What is to stop her from becoming evil once more!
Jaune: Her family.
Ozpin: Family…?
Jaune: Me, my sisters, my mother, and my father. My many wives, and their children, and the child that grows within her. Salem will have a family that loves her, and even if I die before her, she will never be left alone ever again.
Salem: Oh, Jaune…
Jaune: My Queen.
The pair shared another kiss before, Jaune turned to face the dumbstruck, Ozpin as he stared, at the, Dragon King, and one of his many beloved wives, The Grimm Queen.
Jaune: So, Ozpin. Now that you’ve seen her, what will you do now?
Ozpin eyes fell to the floor, his mind lost deep in thought until he let loose a deep sigh before addressing the happy couple.
Ozpin: It appears I was never a good husband, much less a good father was I?
Salem: Considering what happened to our first born. You… No. We… We were not good parents. But, this time, this time I will be better, but can the same be said of you, Ozma?
Ozpin: Only time will tell. May I have your permission to leave your, Grace? I have much work to do back at, Beacon.
Jaune: You have my permission.
Ozpin:Thank you, your Grace. Goodbye, Salem. I wish you well.
Salem: Goodbye, Ozpin. It was… interesting seeing you again.
Ozpin smiled as he, and his guard detail took him away from the loving couple. The only words they heard from him, was him complaining that the were restraints still necessary.
Salem: You know… I never thought I would experience such joy as I do now. I am at peace with, Ozpin. And, I have a chance to have a new life with my family. This is perfect. Thank you, my King.
Jaune: Anything for you, my Queen.
Salem: Oh really? In that case, I want to break mom’s record of how many kids she had…
Jaune: Why does everyone want to do that?
Salem: And, the next time we do it: Can we have someone else join us? My hip’s can’t handle you all on my own.
Jaune: Ha… That would be my extreme pleasure, my dear~!
~~~
While there is a chronological order to my stories. This was just one I couldn’t pass up on.
I’m just going to mark it differently on the, Master Post.
Do Enjoy~!
