Soon all of the lights turned off with Soviet turning into smoke as the screen started to show a familiar scene with a narration being heard on the speakers.

Ruby: Here we go!

???: Twenty years... it's been twenty years since it happened.

Some of the girls in the theatre started to blush at the gruff, gravelly, Liverpudlian accent.

Ozpin: Oh?

Pyrrha: Who's voice is that?

Nebula: Who ever it is sounds...

Octavia: Manly...

Reese: That's an understatement...

The camera then panned to a man in his 40's with distinctive facial structure, mutton chops, a strong jawline, and brown hair as the camera focused on his face as the Boonie he wore covered his eyes while he smoked a cigar.

Ironwood: An interesting looking man.

Ruby: Look at that hair!

Ruby then gestured to the mutton chops.

Yang: It's like a mustache, but connected to his actual hair!

Neptune: Man, he looks cool!

Sun: Right!?

Salem: Hm...

Soon another man walked up behind the mysterious man.

??? 2: Cap'n, we found him.

Glynda: Found who?

Ironwood: Whoever he's looking for seems serious, but it seems this main person is a Captain.

The first man the looked up at the camera as very familiar eyes looked at the camera.

Nora: *Gasp* Those eyes! That's the fearless leader!

Arslan: Who?

Jaune then sheepishly gave a laugh.

Jaune: She would be talking with me.

Reese: But the guy we see has brown hair, you're blond?

Jaune: Well, this story is focused on me, so...

Soviet: You would be right!

Everyone then looked to the voice to see above them sat Soviet who was sitting on a cloud of smoke.

Weiss: How in the...

Soviet: Don't question it, but yes, this man we see is Mr. Jaune Arc!

Ruby: You look so cool Jaune!

Yang: I know right!

Jaune: Well then Soap, let's kill the bastard.

The Jaune on screen then got up before we walked into the camera causing the screen to turn to black as white text appeared.

Winter: An interesting transition.

Brawnz: Woah, woah, woah. Soap? That man's name, is Soap!?

Yang: Ha! That's such a ridiculous name!

Soviet: 'For now.'

"Emerald Forest, 20 Years Ago."

Yang: Sweet! A flashback!

Robyn: And we start in a forest?

Ozpin: yes, but it is the Emerald Forest.

Soon Jaune's voice was heard, this time, he had an accent similar to Velvet's as it spoke in a flashback way.

Narrator Jaune: Twenty years ago, Ozpin sent my team, Team JNPR, into the Emerald Forest to find what had caused an energy spike-

Ruby: Oh! Narrator Jaune! Cool!

Jaune: Huh, cool.

Yang: Looks like Vomit Boy is getting all of the fame today!

Meanwhile CFVY noticed something.

Coco: Well, bun-bun, looks like you and the 1st year have a similar accent.

Velvet: Weird.

Soviet: Not really.

Everyone then looked up to the floating man.

Salem: What do you mean child~?

Soviet: Velvet's accent is an Australian one, while Jaune's is a British accent.

Ironwood: Australian? British?

Soviet: It will be explored later, General.

Ironwood: I would rather have you answ-

Ironwood's mouth was then taped shut as the tape appeared over it.

Clover/Winter: General!?

Soviet: No speaky, only listenin' for now.

Everyone then just focused back up, not wanting to question the 15-year-old and get the same treatment as Ironwood ripped the tape off his mouth.

Narrator Jaune: Little did anyone of us know, this caused the start of my new journey.

Ozpin: Of course we didn't know, who could we?

The screen showed the bright blue sky as it slowly panned downward to the team.

Jaune: Guys Look!

Jaune then pointed to a ruin in the far distance.

Nora: Ooohhh~ what do you guys' think's inside of there!?

Ren: We can't check it out right now Nora, we have a mission.

Ren: Exactly, we need to focus on the mission you guys.

Narrator Jaune: Hehe, lookin' back, Ren was just trying to get the team back on track to complete the mission and head back to Beacon but here we were, wanting to explore.

Clover: They should be careful though, anything could happen, even from that building.

Ruby: Well maybe they should go there then!

Soon Pyrrha's voice was heard as the camera followed the team.

Pyrrha: Ren is right, come on.

Nora: What if that's where the mission is!?

Jaune: She's right, all the details Ozpin said was that the mission was in this area, and it that spike could be because of that building.

Pyrrha: That's.... reasonable.

Glynda: Good thinking, Mr. Arc.

Jaune: Oh... well uh, thank you... Professor?

Narrator Jaune: We did think that building could be part of the mission since it was a scouting mission. But something at that time didn't sit right with me, and I didn't listen.

The camera followed the group as they walked off to the ruins to find it to be an abandoned armory that was converted into some sort of living area, filled to the brim with food cans, tools, and weapons, specifically weapons not from this world.

Ironwood: What the... Ozpin?

Ozpin: I do not remember a building such as this, being in the Emerald Forest...

Glynda: This is odd.

Nora's: Cooool! There is so many weapons!

Ren: This... this is an abandoned armory, and somebody lived here, but these weapons look old? They don't look like weapons I've seen either. But what's that in the back?

Fox: What did he find?

Ruby: What the heck is that?

Weiss: It looks like a sort of... gateway?

Blake: This is strange.

Penny: There are strange energy readings coming off of it!

Arslan: How do you even know that?

Penny: Um... well, it just looks like it!

Arslan eyed Penny for a minute before accepting the answer.

Pyrrha: Yeah, this is weird... But I don't know about that?

Pyrrha then pointed to the gateway.

Ruby: Man, it feels so weird watching Jaune and JNPR on a screen.

Jaune: I found a switch!

As Jaune flicks the switch the lights flicker on with a loud noise starting up.

Soon the Faunus started to cover their ears as the noise blared through the theatre.

Blake: Ah! What is going on!?

Velvet: Loud! Very loud!

Jaune: AHH what is that noise!?

Soon a TV next to Jaune turned on as the loud noise died down.

Blake: Ow... what the heck was that...?

///

Philip Graves: Video log, day 15...

Ruby: Woah... look at all of the weapons behind him!

Nora: Is that a grenade launcher!? I want to try it!

Pyrrha: Who's that?

Ren: No idea.

Everyone, both in screen and in the theatre questioned who the new mysterious figure was.

Graves: To anyone who finds this, I am Philip Graves commander of Shadow Company.

Ironwood: Shadow Company?

Jacques: 'Interesting, if they're in our world, then maybe I can hire them!'

Nora: What's Shadow Company?

Ren: No idea, but for a Company they seem to be big.

Marrow: Considering what this Graves guy has behind him, it can't be good big.

Elm: Marrow's right, those are weapons we have never seen, so we don't know what they could do.

Pyrrha: But there's a problem, how come have we never heard of them? If they have a lot of men, people would know them, similar to the White Fang. Then again, they are called Shadow Company

Cinder: Yes, but the names does not always matter.

Jaune: I have an idea of where this is going...

Yang: Wait? How does Vomit Boy know?

Graves: I'm aware I'm not on earth anymore. I'm in some other world called Remnant.

Weiss: What kind of planet is named after dirt? That's ridiculous!

Soviet: Ah! And what kind of name is Remnant!? It just means stuff that's leftover, left behind, just extra pieces!

Everyone looked to Soviet who continued his rant.

Soviet: The name Earth had been derived from old English and German words that meant ground or soil! Hell it could've originated from the same root as the words erda! In Old High German and erde in modern German, both of which means ground!

Ruby then whispered to his mom as Soviet ranted off in the background as everyone else listened to the young man in either entertainment, or just wanting to learn.

Ruby: He really likes to talk...

Summer: Remember Ruby, everyone is different in their own ways.

Ruby: I know!

Soviet: Hell the word Terra just means Earth in English! And Latin was practically the universal language for the western civilization!

Soviet then stopped his rant as he took a deep breath.

Watts: Are you done with your useless rant?

Suddenly Watts started to float up.

Watts: Huh!? Hey! Put me down!

Watts then flew straight into the trash can on the other side of the theatre.

Soviet: Anyone else want to make me angry?

Silence.

Soviet: Good! Let's continue!

JNPR: 'Earth?'

Graves: I was sent here by some guy named.... Oum? I think?

JNPR: He knows Oum!?

Ironwood: Now hold on! That can't be possible! How could he just meet a God!?

Soviet: Not answering~!

Salem: May you please answer, child.

Soviet: Nyet! I refuse thy request because this is my theatre!

Soviet then floated to the back, grabbing a few cookies to munch on as the screen continued to play.

Graves: From what he told me is that I will be making this video log for a future/current member of 141 from my world, but to also help protect the villages nobody protects.

Nebula: What's 141? It can't just be a number because he said member?

Everyone then looked to the floating teenager as he took a bite into a sugar cookie.

Soviet: Task Force 141.

Ironwood: A task force?

Soviet: Da, Task Force 141 also known as 141 is a joint multi-national special operations task force and counter-terrorism military unit.

Ironwood: Ah, so I assume Mr. Arc here is just an operative.

Soviet: Sort of.

Ozpin: Sort of?

Soviet: Mr. Arc here is an operator yes, but he is the founder and commander of the 141.

Almost everyone, in shock looked to Beacon's blond noodle.

Jaune: I... I did what...!?

Soviet: Created one of, if not the most lethal and proficient task force in the world.

Still in shock, everyone turned back to the screen, hearing the audio continue.

JNPR: So, he's here to help people, but where is he?

Narrator Jaune: I remember as we tried to figure it out, then Graves said something unexpected which I understand now.

Graves: Apparently, he wants to send some kid named Jaune to the past to become good ol' Captain Price when he joined military academy, aka the past.

JNPR: JAUNE/ME IN THE MILITARY!?

Ruby: It sounds unbelievable!

Yang: I know right! Vomit boy acting all serious!

Jaune: Hey! I can be serious at times!

Ren: No offense Jaune, not really.

Jaune then slumped back in his chair as everyone kept watching the screen.

Jaune: In another world too!?

Graves: He's trying to merge our two worlds into one, or at least send some people to our world.

Jaune: But why me...

Graves: Anyways after the message ends, a portal will open up since Oum can't directly interfere, but he gave me the resources needed to make it specifically for when this kid arrives.

Ironwood: Interesting, a port... of course.

Weiss: Is that what's in the back?

(J)NPR: But why though?

Graves: Since I finished everything, I'm going to find a place to truly live, a.k.a find a village and protect it with the guns I can carry leaving whatever else behind since that was a task, I was given.

Ruby: Then where is he...? It looks like he hasn't been there in ages.

Summer: Maybe they can find him Ruby.

Ruby: Maybe...

Narrator Jaune: I remember I was such a kid back then... but of course the healthy human mind doesn't wake up in the morning thinking this is its last day on Earth. But I think that's a luxury, not a curse. To know you're close to the end is a kind of freedom.

Ozpin: Mr. Arc has an interesting mindset.

Glynda: Yes, he is not wrong though, if you were to wake up thinking it is your last day, it wouldn't be a pleasant day.

Ozpin: Quite.

Jaune: Wait what?

Nora: Since he isn't coming back, can we take these guns!?

Everyone watch Nora point at all of the left over weapons.

Ren: Nora, no. We don't need more weapons.

Nora: Fiiiiiine...

Nora: There's no such thing as to much gun Renny!

Ren: You already have Magnhild, Nora. How could you carry the rest?

Nora: We could always come back!

Soon a chuckle was heard as Captain Arc's voice was heard.

Narrator Jaune: Heh, Nora really wanted to keep those weapons, I remember when I returned to Remnant, Nora wanted to head back to the portal to collect the weapons...

Nora: See we can go back!

Pyrrha: Returned? Jaune was able to come back to Remnant?

Soviet: Yup, but we'll see some of his... adventures on Earth before seeing him come back.

Ironwood: Interesting, Penny remember to take notes.

Penny: Yes General!

Jaune: Guys, do you think this guy was causing the power surge?

Pyrrha: It's possible, I think we should find the source.

Graves: Anyways, this is Philip Graves, signing out. *Video Ends*

The portal then opens up behind them as everyone watched Jaune get slowly sucked in.

(J)NPR: OH NO!

Ruby: Jaune!

Blake: So that's how he arrived on Earth...

Everyone from (J)NPR on screen and people in the theatre watched as Jaune proceeds to get sucked into the portal, while his team was trying to help Jaune, but fails.

Pyrrha: Jaune!

Nora: Fearless leader!

Ren: Oh no!

Jaune: AHHHH!

Soon Jaune was consumed by the energy in the portal as he disappeared.

Pyrrha: JAUNE!!!

The students watched as Pyrrha fell to her knees as small tears formed in her eyes as the portal started to spark before the portal itself disappeared.

Ruby: Pyrrha...

Pyrrha: I can't believe this...

Arslan: Looks like the invincible girl had very close ties to that noodle boy.

Reese: Looks like it.

Soon the screen turned to black.

Whitley: Was that the end?

Soviet: Not yet...

Soon white text appeared on the screen once again.

Ruby: Oh, what is this?

"[ErR0r]/[3Rr0R]/2001"

Tai: What's going on? Why is it saying error?

Soviet: I don't know why... but I have a feeling I do know...

Marrow: What's that supposed to mean?

Soviet: Shhh... shhh... shhh...

Soviet covered Marrow's mouth as the screen continued to show a possible future.

"R0yal Military Ac4dEmy S4ndhurst, SaNdhuRst, Berksh1r-r-re"

A younger Jaune from the start was seen, without his mutton chops, standing at attention, dressed in his military gear.

Ironwood: Sandhurst? Berkshire? And what is with the glitching?

Nadir: So, this is how the noodle became what he is?

Soviet: Correct! This is the Exercise Dynamic Victory, the final exercise for Officer Cadets!

Winter: Wait, he's already on track to becoming an Officer!?

Soviet: Da.

Everyone looked back to the massive screen as Jaune was in the lead.

Jaune: We got tango's inside, Mitchell, kick the door in...

Cadet 1: Roger... breach...

Soon the Cadet named Mitchell kicked the door off it's hinges as Jaune rushed inside with another Cadet, taking down two metal plates that acted as the enemy.

Elm: Woah, they are fast at clearing.

Ruby: Oh! Oh! What are those weapons! I want to see what Dust they shoot! Oh! What do they transform into! What about-

Yang: Ruby! Calm down!

Ruby: But Yang!

Summer: Haha, calm down Ruby.

Ruby: Oh... ok mom.

Arslan: Question.

Soviet: Yeah?

Arslan: Where is the Grimm? And why are they shooting the metal plates?

Soviet: Ah, well you see. Earth has no Grim-

Everyone: They don't have Grimm!?

Soviet: ... Ok cut me off like that, but yes. They don't have any Grimm.

Arslan: But wha-

Soviet: Again, I was getting to it.

Arslan: S-sorry...

Soviet: It's no problem, but just wait.

Arslan: Right.

Soviet: As I was saying, with no Grimm, who would be the next cause of violence?

Before anyone else could answer, Blake and Ironwood answered.

Blake/Ironwood: People.

Soviet: Correct-

Most people looked worried for the future Captain alongside Jaune himself.

Ruby: They at least have Aura right!?

Soviet: No.

Everyone in the theatre then paled.

Emerald: People from Earth don't have
