🎧
As the clashing of hammers could be heard as being known as the blacksmith who was working on a species around here that just passed to Ascension now has it stopped for a moment and looked up and saw something else as it was him "Hmmmm." As The being hums as it sets it's sights into one particular rusted knight arriving at the Garden Acre.
As he and his mount Arriving at the market place inside the Garden Acre as Something was different about him as he was not feels the same things as before as it can sense its very presence and his very much emotions as something was different now as he isn't rushing to meet the deadline and the very much the schedules like usual as in order to protect the Paper Pleasers Ever Aftereuns.
As It was now feels...a little free and freeing in a sort of empty way now as Purposeless at best and That's the word he's looking for now as It might have lost all of his will and his purpose to fulfill in this world now as he is just riding away as there's nothing else to left for him to do now as One of the people pleasers decided to This other friends in as Ascension now Just a few days ago as it was a long process but now it is nearly complete there very own ascension was completely.
But now it was understand the situation of the knight perfectly as he was built to be a hero and without the very Paper Pleasers or other beings as similar to them to protect he doesn't have anything to do anymore other the than laze around and wait for...for his friends know as Team RWBY as before the two of them come to him sometime age as Those two did some damage but it was for the benefit of the Ever After as Very much future and it's habitants in total as it still remembers one of them made it out while the other one stayed back as it even knows her fate as well by the cats paw in the end.
As for knight as he was riding off as he was looking around the Grand acres as there's was any threat towards the inhabitants by the jabberwocky or problems that he could solve for them all but for his luck as there were none and then he thinking about his current situations as what will he just do now after as what did just transpired with the curious cat and the paper pleasers as it was right to trust that curious cat as he did mislead him Many times and even tried to push him off the bridge some time ago as it even had its paw's in the whole Alex and Lewis's situation as well and curious cat did many things to him in the past If jaune Arc remembers carefully and observed by now.
As curious cat did likes to just riddle his way through situations sometimes now and as he was thinking that what if the curious cat is as was actually telling the truth then what was as he the one depriving them up there very success as he was the villain in the end kept on denying them of their true fate and destroying what they could become as he just became like his own father and so many other people who never believed in him as was as he was at the wrong and did not let them achieve their very goal in the end.
As The thought just suddenly jolts energy into as his brain for an instant only for it to bleed away as a few minutes later as Jaune then taught as what does this makes him in the story then as He'll wait for Team RWBY to arrive here for how long and If jaune did find them and help them escape this land as then what ? He'll drag them down again? It's not like he's actually have found a way out of this nightmare of a realm by now as well You need to still find them as they haven't fallen by now as it was his own fault he's in this situation to begin with If he did not pick up that damn time fruit things would have been better as Jaune thought maybe but just who cares now what's done is done now He needs to move on as knight is just tired now that's what he can think of now.
As the very realization just forces his mind down and in thinking now deep into darker thoughts of his mind that he has been too hard on himself lately maybe jaune wasn't meant to be the hero of the story as Maybe those four girls were true heroes and he was some fake who was just getting in their way time by time as maybe it's time to move on as he needs to find those girls and help them escape and maybe he could stay here as this is his new home as he spend fifteen years of his life in this place anyways as maybe as it's his time to finally give up and just accept his own fate now as no one will or can save him
As then he was now looking down to ward his very hands as the knight thinks of his very failures by now as he couldn't defend beacon Academy as he couldn't defend his home as He couldn't defend his people He couldn't defend his love Pyrrha Nikos and He couldn't defend Penny and all the people he failed to save in Mantle and Atlas as now he couldn't defend his friends in Ever After he couldn't defend the paper pleasers now.
He is so deep in his thoughts that he doesn't realize that the market is being covered in darkness. He only notices the change when the darkness washes over him and suddenly he is being blinded by bright yellow light.
🎧
CLANG !!!
As the sound of hammer colliding against a very metal as catches his attention as Jaune was turning to the sound with his arms up in his shield as he raised it just to cover his very eyes, as knight saw a glint of an bright green light coming from a nearby wall. The source? A bright green metallic blade that has freezes the as knight's body to his core now as it was a weapon that used to belong to a certain girl that he used to know as he always respected her as liked her company as he had to murder her on the bridge as to save so many others and to make sure she did not get her powers as well as it was a very poisonous memory of his it always did brought nightmares to him as What he did.
"Does that interest you now knight ?" As an very melodic voice just called out to him as it gained attention again as Jaune started to look around his very surroundings and saw nothing but darkness he doesn't realize that the market is being covered in darkness. He only notices the change when the darkness washes over him again and suddenly as the knight is just being blinded by bright yellow flares off the furnace as even the hammers very blind collision against it again as again.
CLANG !!!
As the knight started to flinches at the very sound, again as he reached out his hand at the very green blade as he touched it as all of a sudden jaune could remember and he could feel all the emotions inside of it as He was holding it as for a glimpse as jaune just saw someone as he never thought he would ever see again In this lifetime It was Penny as she was smiling at him As she was now reaching out her hands and as grabbing his face and then making him smile with her thumbs up on his mouth and said just one thing "smile"
As he was now back to his senses as knight could see that he was now holding the green sword by its hilt and aiming it at the source as then what greets them his sight is a being silouheted by a bright light casting shadows dark enough to obscure its face as jaune just wants to reaches his hand to a another one of the blade on the display now but as jaune couldn't as He was being too attractive at the very green blade as he didn't know what to do now.
"I...uhh..thought this thing was lost forever as hoe do you have this now ?" As the very knight just answered her as he printer ally over whelemd by the object from a distant past now as Jaune never realized it It was this beautiful and he never gets to see this type of weapons anymore in his whole life.
CLANG !!!
" NO That is where you are wrong now as nothing, and no one is ever truly lost and alone forever." As The being knows as the blacksmith just to chuckles as it hammers an object lying on top of the very anvil now as Jaune started to think to himself as what does this mean for him then 'No one is lost forever, huh? Tell that to the list of all the people I have just has failed over the years now.' He thinks to himself at the very moment as just then as he saw a reflection of his friend Penny on the very sword now as He flinches at the sudden sight of blood on his hands again which only for it to just disappear as when he opens his eyes.
As the blacksmith just started it stare at him as It was kept on hammering the very object in front of him "You disagree?" The being asks, still not turning towards him as It was nearly complete it's one of him new project and It will still make a new standing.
CLANG !!!
"It's just that I've lost a lot of things already and just lost a lot of people already now Its hard to think otherwise." He answers as he started to sets down the green blade down on the table in front of him now as he face the blacksmith like being as it kept on just hammering down the object for him "Hmm And then what about you now ? Are you lost as well now ?" As The being asked him.
CLANG !!!
As with that kind of question for the first time in his life he was Take it back as is he just a little lost Maybe "What? No...I'm...I'm not..I don't know or Not sure myself now."
As The being asks, still not turning towards him as It was nearly complete "Hmmm..... then perhaps you are actually currently lost in your path and as You seem to be carrying a as rather large burden with you in the very much process." As it told the rusted knight as he was taken a back.
CLANG !!!
As Jaune was thinking at his statement and started to realize this situation better now "I guess you could just say that, yes, just yeah. But as I don't know what to do anymore in my life now ." As Jaune told the blacksmith the truth about his whole situation now.
"Then perhaps you could do one just lay down your burdens and as choose any of other path these are suitable to you now." As The being advised him and it was still not turning towards him as it told him.
CLANG !!!
As he was taking aback by her explanation and advice towards him "What? But I did already have a weapon with me now but it was been broken since a long time ago since I got here in the ever after" as knight just let out an explanation why he would not carry and doesn't need another weapon around him as this weapon has more of a history with his family than himself now.
As The being just nodded his head at him as then it was still not turning towards him as it told him. "And yet here you are in this world and Searching for something you don't even know and have Perhaps you'd like to get another weapon now ? Or fix what you currently have now ?" As it Told him as that is a really broken sword right there and it needed to be fixed or replaced.
CLANG !!!
But For him now as some reason now those very much words has just land heavily on the knight thinking state as he was Unable to discern the hidden meaning of the very question he was asked by it as knight looks around his surroundings and notices he's in a weapons shop. Eventually his eyes land on something that freezes his heart in the place and his very own cools his blood to ice now.
CLANG !!! CLANG !!! CLANG !!!
The hammer keeps on falling and colliding against the metal as he stares into a bronze sword and shield just above him and as he was Just frozen as it was belonged to some one Who was very much precious towards him as the one person He could never bring back no matter how many steps jaune might take as She made him what he is today as she is not here with him as she should have been at least he could have their own happy ending after all.
Jaune
And then just all suddenly jaune very much own surrounded by a bright white light! The next thing he knows he's laying down in the ground in the Grand acres as Jaune can just recognize the very place as he was looking around him As Jaune saw his trusted mount standing beside him as it was now hovering above him as Juniper was little worriedly as nudging him with her nose now as She had just blacked out for a moment there and has everything started to change for a moment when they came forward they were here in the middle of the marketplace as no one did just stopped to check on them.
As his very own Instincts born of years in this world now has him leaping into action and scanning his surroundings by now as He actually hate that goddamn jabbawocker as it will sneak up on you and try to take a bite out of you as it did once in the past and he had to make sure he killed the rest of his buddies Yeah he wasn't alone They used to be more than one around here as he had to make sure he took care of them personally.
As Jaune sees himself back in the middle of the marketplace while the Afterans do their business as usual with none of themselves just noticing his very own sudden lapse of consciousness. Perhaps it is a testament to how much bullshit he has been through that He was now hallucinating and as what next in his life now Will he just be getting himself drunk and then accidentally getting married to people now as he only sheathes his sword and sighs as he continues his day As usual.
As weird as that encounter was, it changes nothing for the knight. He's still lost in this world. The Paper Pleasers are still gone. And he still needs to get supplies and furniture to replace the ones he destroyed last night.
"Come on, Juniper. Let's get what we need and go back home as I'm planning on fishing today so what are your thoughts." As Jaune gently started to pats his very loyal friend of his and continues on with his day.
Do you believe in destiny
In the dark void of the Great Tree, the being of metal and magic as patiently just watches the knight through a shining portal as green orbs float around it has as it can tell he can be the better version of himself and achieve what he always wanted to be and he will be one of the greatest legends and hero around their very worlds now as He is a knight who protects the weak the one who will save the world but right now he is lost He just needs a little guidance and a very much push the right direction now till then he needs to be as the hero that this world needs right now and as to his friends that are arriving soon enough here.
CLANG !!!!
"Hmmmm. Perhaps you're not as lost as you think you are just yet." The hammer keeps on falling and colliding against the very metal As There's a pause for minutes now as before a singular orb flits up to its view."Now, what do I do with you?" The being asks as it holds a hand up for the orb to land on as a familiar color at best.
No reply was communicated to the being as know as the blacksmith but an answer was still reached "Something more durable as then now." As It chuckles as it lays the orb down on its anvil before raising its hammer.
CLANG !!!!!!

WORLD OF EVER AFTER
FORMAL PAPER PLEASER VILLAGE
DAY UNKNOWN
POV
As the rusted knight was now just returning back from his errands back to his little hut or a cabin that his friends helped him build some time ago as it was more than a few hours now since he had a conversation with the blacksmith and that's very slight curious cat as it was time for him to go back to his home and rest as when he came back to that verification where the paper pleasers used to live as he found himself a very shocking situation " Ok What the f***** hell going on around here ?"
It is a testament to his patience as to even now how shocking the sight he is currently looking at that it managed to surprise even the Rusted Knight now as the very last thing he very expected to see after coming back to the ruined village and his home now was a freaking crystal palace standing on top of as then the lake with a beautiful bridge around it now and it was next to his house as well now "What is going on here now ?" As Jaune just whispers to his mount juniper as then she was just started slowly nodded in denial to in awe as he drops a sack to the ground.
"This is Ascension." The Curious Cat appears and hisses from behind him has it was now smiling as well it knew he won the deal as it did wait patiently ass he knew that in the right time He will come back to his senses and realize how wrong he was now as the cat knew that as he was doing this for the last he has lost count of it by now but for a very long time by now Apparently as this is as what his true purpose was from the very beginning as he was tasked by his very own God anyways as it watched him slowly.
"No..." He whispers softly, awe starting to turn into horror as what was he trying to do all this time as he wasn't helping them He was denying them off there free rights as he has become just like ironwood and like his father now as he wanted to be different but he turned out to be the same as them in the end as he can't accept this at all.
"Yessss...You know what you've done, what you've been doing All this time" It whispers maliciously circling the knight in order to avoid the jackalope behind him as he knew one wrong turn that jackalope is going to kick the s*** out of him as Jaune flinches at the silent as he just witnessed accusation as from the first time in his life now but before he could reply, as Jaune hears a somewhat familiar voice as he froze at that moment.
"Hello there, brave knight!" A dark purple star-shaped gem as started to approaches him now It had a basket in his hands or whatever those pointy things are called at this point as his heart gets stuck in his very throat at the familiar call. He looks at the being so familiar to one he interacted with just few days ago as His hopes as that they would remember him are dashed by as its following words after it.
🎧
"You look like a brave knight! Do you need some assistance?" It asks cheerfully towards him as it was too much for him to be bear this now as he had to ask the questions as well "just What are you now ?" As He asks hoarsely, trying to stop himself from crying.
As then suddenly the red gem approaches from the other side to answer his question now as he recognized this one as well now.
"We are the Genial Gems now ! And we've arrived here to clean up this beautiful land and just then create something beautiful as and pleasing for the inhabitants now !" As It says proudly as the knight sees a yellow gem wade through as the very water and pick up the very least remains of the Paper Pleasers now "You understand, don't you jaune?" The Cat asks with obvious glee in its voice.
"...This is them...as They're back... But just how" The knight answers, tears in his eyes as Jaune sees a glowing light from the very gem's hands form a house made of crystals.
"Brave knight You appear to be upset about something as Would you be so kind as to tell us how to help you now ?" A blue and white gem asks him kindly now as The knight falls to his knees at the question, blood pounding in his mind as How could he let this go as he should be the one now helping them not the other way around now as He denied them as he was basically killing them slowly as he was driving them to be insane just like him self He wanted to be the one to protect them but he was the one who was denying them.
"Poor Rusted Knight. As You tried so hard to just save them but as you just only stopped them from becoming what they needed or what they meant to be in the end !" As The Cat coos at him, as then slowly gaining in volume until it is almost shouting at him in the end as He was going to win this time and he will have what he wants and he will get what as he just wants now.
"I...I.-" as the knight was speechless as what kind of an answer he should give back to the curious cat now as he was more ashamed as it is as he was the one denying them of their future as he was just trying to be a hero but in reality he was the real villain in the story.
As the curious cat then slowly start gaining in volume until it is almost shouting at him "You held them back !!! Not just once but as more than 100 times a day and night as you kept on implementing your very schedule as and very rules now as making sure that they don't have time due come as what they were destined to be now but as by now you Might have realized it that the truth as You aren't a hero !!! You're a fraud !!! As You just wanted the rush of rescuing someone like an idiot !"
As then very harsh wind just blows passed him only for the gems to hunker down and not get blown away like before now as it was now confirming for what he has done.
"N-no!"
As the curious cat was now then slowly start gaining in volume again as until it is almost time to end it shouting at him further in the end "Yes! You did what as you did for selfish reasons now !!! And even then you failed in what you wanted to do in the end! Look at yourself You're a failure as a human and as hero and now look at them! They don't need you anymore and They never did need you!"
A then small fire is extinguished as one of the very gem as just started to waves as it's very glowing arm at it as they were fixing there old village now and as they all will be rebuilt it soon. "Poor little Rusty jau, you fail at succeeding and only succeed as when you have fail again in his life now." As The Cat just mocks him slowly and finally....finally succeeds in breaking the knight even if only for a moment for as it did took him years to do now and as even for the strongest would crack one day and when they discover that they have fought for the wrong reasons for decades now and everything came to light.
"I...I'm so sorry everyone !" He cries as ugly sobs invading his speech as tears drop from his eyes as had his head on the ground as he was trying to apologize to gems as they all stopped what they were doing as they faced towards him and Started to surround him as They had one thing on as there crystallized minds now as They all agree on one thing.
Finally...I waited for so long. Who knew all it would take i-hrk!!! Who hit me !!! " As The curious Cat just stalks forward away with a predatory grin on his face, but only to be for a minute before as it was bonks away by the very gem with pink color as it was not alone as the others are coming to the very knights rescue as well as they had something in his crystallized hand now and very crystallized baseball bats as they changed at the cat now
"You made the brave knight cry! Go away, you meanie cat !" As The red gem shouts as with crystallized baseball bat as it just start to bonks and beating the Cat away from him as others joined in as well " HI as What are -OUCH ?! Do you know wha-OUCH!" The Cat replies in fury and confusing now only to be trampled and kicked away by the jackalope in the end as She never did liked that cat to begin with as the rest of the gems started to surround him and started to pin him down and beat him up and saying one thing "fight back I say fight back pussycat as fight back" as the pink and black one was enjoying this or some reason more than the rest of them as they all ganged up on him as pinning him down and barrage it with bats and as some were kicking it with there little crystallized feet now in the whole process.
All of this happening goes over the knight's head as his vision was now turns blurry due to the tears that just continue flowing down from his face now as Jaune just kept on just repeatedly as a apologizes as his matter "I'm sorry! I'm so so sorry! Ple-" as He apologizes again and as again only to be interrupted by an very hug from the blue and white gem as now and For a moment there He felt safe as his he was now in his mother embrace again and Jaune could just pretend that it is an old mother and sister as embracing him now as It really tried his best in the end as they did covers him in a comforting hug as Started to reassure him that a he wasn't a failure at all as This is just a bad dream for him.
"It's okay, brave knight and as I'm just sure you did your best in the end and But as even the best fail sometimes in life." As the blue gem just told him as it was now as embraces his neck in comfort for him now. "I'm sure as you were strong and brave knight till the end as You have tried and fought for every one around you and as helped everyone to go through there ascension safely ." As Dark purple like the starry night as it just hug's as him from the other side now as calming him down furthermore than before.
"You can depend on us for a while now as Until you could be on your feet again ." As then Bright yellow like the sun, just pats his back comfortingly him now "Here just drink this now as It will help you relax a bit Let us handle your things for a while now." As Red like roses, as it was holds up a teacup gently to his mouth as he was Overwhelmed by the mental strain and the subsequent comfort as he has been exposed to now as the Rusted Knight takes a sip of the tea.
As then jaune started Slowly but as surely finishing it, by now as he could already feel its effects on relaxing him a bit as The Gems move to support his body as he slowly lays down on the soft little ground or bed as it is he couldn't make it out as what he was lying on as it didn't matter in the end of all as he was fading away.
As The last thing jaune just saw before the darkness consumed him as are as the very much the roots on the ground as just slowly covering him as making himself one with it.
CHANGE LOCATION
As when the rusted knight just woke up, all he saw was white around it's surroundings.
'Where am I? He started to sat up, his hands pushing on the cold and white ground as for support now. As the knight looked around his surroundings as there was no sign of live or anyone or anything as else in the matter now as the knight felt his shoulders tense a little bit as Where was he now ? As he kept on asking the same question it again and as again now as he held his very sword was in the very sheathed of his shield now and as it was sitting on the ground just next to him as as the knight started to grabbed it and stood up from the ground as His armor was still in intact and he was wearing it as but At least he had some kind of protection with him as "Hello?" He called out, but he only heard his own voice as it was echoing in responses.
He decided to walk around the entire place as he did jaune didn't see anything at all or could hear anything other than his as very own footsteps now but knight couldn't let his guard down for a second now as he had many different question on his minds 'What was this place just anyway now ? As How is and did he of all the people get here now ?' as He tried to remember the previous night, what happened last night ' ah Yes now as he just remembers now.
As the Rusted Knight drank the cup of tea in his time of weakness and desperation at his very much best now in the result of this.
Oh. Oh. He drank the cup of tea now as it was delicious at best as knight stopped right in his tracks now so Was he dead now ? Did he die by a cup of tea now That's weird ? As
No, no, he just couldn't die now, as he had to meet team RWBY and then give her Crescent Rose back to Ruby now and just go back to Remnant and finish what he started and he had to tell Nora and Ren that he was okay and he promised he'd stay safe to Saph- as What the hell It doesn't even matter at this point in his life as what's done it's done.
As then knight just heard some footsteps, as someone was approaching him as it's lighter than his own footsteps and as then knight is and was whipped his head around and just brought out his shield formation in the very own direction of the sound now, " as Who's there?" He called as he put up his guard and knight just gripped his weapons tight in his hand's now as He only heard his own voice again as The footsteps had come to a halt as He drew his sword, ready to defend himself.
The footsteps sounded again, but this time the person was now running as It sounded like the same person, though. He heard the faint sound of armor clanging against each other, and he tensed again. As He needed to make it out of- whatever this place was now. As If he could beat He wasn't going to let this stop him from reuniting with his very own friends and family now as not after all those years of very much struggling for as nothing now as knight was the grip on his own very sword tightened now.
As knight just covered himself with his very own shield now as he heard the footsteps as they very now get very nearer, and he heard a gasp as in knight then slowly lowered his shield to properly see the person in front of him now as It was a miracle now As now as just in front of him was standing in front of him was a tall girl, with her flowing red hair tied up in a ponytail and as she was dressed in armor and with a beautiful voice that as it was so much painfully for knight just to as be just recognized by her and him as now.
"Jaune is that you ?"
As the knight was just started to dropped his very weapons and started to stepped closer to her as She was still an seventeen year old girl as the late he saw her as like he had also been all those years ago at Beacon academy as She was still wearing the same outfit she wore that very night that she kissed him for as the first and late time now as Well, as all except for her very circlet on her body now.
"Pyrrha?"
As She was still seventeen old like the time as she had been that night he'd danced with her, giggling as he twirled her around as like she was that time on the rooftop as when he confessed to her that he'd had as cheated his very way into Beacon academy as that time as he'd locked eyes with her in the Emerald as the very last Forest as they were meeting his partner for the first time in his life now.
As She was still the same girl he lost twenty years ago in his life now. "Jaune..." As Pyrrha said and started to approached him now as. "It's really you and isn't it this a ?" As she just started to stop now As he then started to speak "Yeah. It's really me, I-" as His voice as cracked. "I thought I'd never see you again."
Pyrrha caressed his cheek. "It's good to see you but your shield, you just used my own circlet." As she pointed out as he started to nodded at her and answer her "Yeah I just did as to still remember you as You're still seventeen for all those years now" as Jaune just started to smiled. "Like always." As he said this to her now. "That's how you know me now, isn't it then ?" She smiled, wiping tears off his cheek. "You've grown." As she told him. "I-" He started. "I made a mistake. I turned the time back-"
As he was cut off by her as she just said one sentence "It's okay." As he couldn't stop as he kept on going explaining what he had to do as what was needed to do and when jaune started understand She was really here as she was helping him cop up again " I did killed Penny and I- she asked me to do it in the end and there was no other choice, so I did it all." He choked. "I just really as didn't want to did it, Pyrrha. I think about it every day that point on as If I had just been there fast enough, then she wouldn't have been- she'd be in Vacuo with the rest of them." As kept on trying to explaining as she put her hand on his cheek. "I know. She knows. I'm sorry you had to do that." As she told him.
As Pyrrha pulled Jaune into an embrace as he then leaned into her, feeling the warmth and love from someone as Jaune was cared about for the first time in as who knew how long. He felt safe. He felt peaceful. After all those years in the Ever After, he finally felt some sense of home. Familiarity. He missed her so much, even after all these years. Oh, how he longed for the time before all this ever happened? Before he knew there was more darkness lurking in the world than the adults had let on in the past now ?.
"Am I dead? Last thing I remember is being poisoned." He asked the main question now as then she watches him stumble of it "A No, Jaune as You're are alive and still breathing. Faintly, but breathing as You are only here for a short time now as It's somewhat like a dream." Pyrrha smiled. "A long, long dream for me and but not for you now as You'll live on and as You will fight to the end with own very teammates now with Ren and Nora." As She sounded determined as before now.
"Then what about you?" His voice wobbled. "Will I ever- will you be gone, then? If this is just a dream-" as he was cut off " as I won't be gone by now, Jaune." Jaune saw her eyes grow wet as well. "I was never truly gone, as I'm always here with you." As she placed a one of her hand on his chest. "I'll always be a part of you. In your Crocea Mors, as in my sash and in the videos I sent you in the end your thoughts, Nora and Ren's thoughts, all those memories we cherish, I'm there. And then, in a way, I'll be alive."
🎧
"I can't do this without you." As Tears were streaming down his face. "I've tried, for so long, but I need you, my partner, here with me. Pyrrha, as I- I can't go on." Jaune cried. "This is it! This is all I have! I ruined it all, I couldn't even find the way home after all these years now." As he was again cut of by her now she started to talk now "Oh, as my dear Rusted Knight..." Pyrrha squeezed his hand. "As now just Look how much you've have grown in your journey as how You're strong now and You're beautiful. You are a miracle. You've come so far from that little boy in the Emerald Forest. But I know you're not done yet as You have a long way to go, as Rusted Knight as the hero that we deserve as And I know your story is nowhere near to its end now." As she told him with a straight face now "What if I mess up again? What if I let people down again?" As he just asked her
"You'll make up for it one day and as I know you can." She smiled, then looked worried. "Jaune... we're running out of time. You need to wake up now." As he was just standing as there as "Wait! Will I ever see you again? As Will I forget all this, like I forget a dream?" As He asked and holding onto Pyrrha's hand desperately at the moment as called.
Pyrrha stayed silent for a moment. "We'll meet again when the time comes. It will be a long wait, but what is a hundred years in the face of eternity?" She wiped her own tears, then held both his hands in hers. "You will remember me. The memory will fade, but it will be there. Then, when the time comes, you'll be with me again. For it is in passing that we achieve immortality. Your time has yet to come, but when it does, you will become truly alive. Your legacy, your deeds, your words never die."
Pyrrha's voice was solemn, and Jaune could see the truth in her eyes as the truth was as warm, like she was now It was bright. It was dark. It was balance itself. He believed her.
"I don't know if this is how the whole... thing works in the end but if you ever need do see Penny... will you tell her I'm sorry? And give her a hug for me?" As Jaune asked her about this now "She already knows. As she is very very happy to have been able to protect the maiden powers from Salem and her ."
"That's... that's good. Thank you."
"I love you."
"I... I love you too."
"You have to wake up now." As She touched Jaune's face. Would this be the last? Jaune was too afraid that she would say yes to that question if he asked. She seemed so fragile, like she could disappear again at any given moment. She closed her eyes, murmuring something that he couldn't make out. He kept his open, taking in one last good look at his partner. She finally opened her eyes, giving him a sad smile.
So this is it."Goodbye, Jaune Arc and move on and be better now." She whispered, and kissed his hand."Goodbye, Pyrrha and I will be better now" He murmured as the knight thought he heard one last "I love you" from her as He knows what he must do to be a hero now he must save his friends and help them escape and then finish what he started
As When he woke up as he just was riding on the back of a running jackalope as it was just foggy for him As It was night, and as the cold air was brushing his face as he moved. His limbs were still numb, and his mouth was parched it was the tea then or what as it now Against better judgment, he let himself drift back to sleep. He was going to be okay.
