Ask Scully

Jaune: (Via scroll) Hey, Yang...

Yang: What do you want, Jaune?

Jaune: I just wanted to say...

Jaune: "I get it".

Yang: Get what?

Jaune: Remember when... we got into that fight, and I said you were stupid for running in and losing your arm?

Yang: Yeah?

Jaune: I get it.

Yang: Look, whatever weird thing you're doing right now, I'm not interested. Why don't you bother Ruby with this-

Jaune: She's after Tyrian.

Yang: !!!

Jaune: And I told her to. (Coughs) She wanted to stay, but I knew that we wouldn't get another chance. So, I told her to go after him, and I'd be fine.

Yang: You don't sound fine.

Jaune: No... I don't...

Yang: Hey, what- Where are you right now? Because I can-

Jaune: I get it, Yang.

Yang: ...

Jaune: I couldn't bear Ruby getting hurt, so I... I rushed in... and he got me good with his tail and his claws... (Coughs, Wheezes) Yeah, he got me good, right, Pyrrha?

Yang: JAUNE! HANG IN THERE! I'M ON MY WAY! JUST DON'T-

Jaune: I finally get it, Yang...

Weiss: Ruby, please. You of all people would be able to see him first, you're the fastest of us. You need to sleep in a real bed.

Weiss: Ruby, Please. Say something. Anything.

Jaune: Ruby? Ruby are you there? I can't ... See you ... please ... say something ...

Doctor: Miss Rose, I'm sorry, but there's nothing more we can do. Friday makes two weeks, and after that ... He very likely won't wake up again, and if he does, he'll need many, many months of recovery and Physical Therapy to get back half of what he's lost.

Ruby: Three Days? Three Days to wake up?

Doctor: Ma'am-

Ruby: Jaune.

Jaune: ... Ruby?

Ruby: I Don't know if you can hear me, but I need you to Wake. Up. Okay? I know- I know I asked you a ton over the last couple weeks, like everyone else- Nora, Yang, Weiss, Ren, Oscar-

Ruby: Please. Try to do something. For me. PLease.

Jaune: I'll try ... Craterfa ... crater ...

Jaune: ...

Jaune: NNnnngh ...

Jaune: *Smacking his tongue* .. Weh? *Cough COugh Cough*

Jaune: *Struggles to open his eyes, but eventually manages to.*

*The room was dark. a heart monitor beeps- his Heart monitor beeps. He's tired. So very, very tired. His mouth is dry, his eyes water, his body is terribly sore, and everything is blurry. It's probably late at night, given the darkness and the quiet.

*But he's alive. And while he can't see it, he made it. two days, sixteen hours, and thirty seven minutes since that last conversation.

Woman's Voice: Well look who's awake, its about time, It'd be a shame if I didn't get a chance to thank you~

Jaune: *Struggling to try and recognize the voice, why is it so familiar?*

Woman's Voice: *Coming closer* You're lucky your so durable, you'd have to be to get away with being so very stupid.

Jaune: *Trying to blink the blurriness in his vision away* Wwwho?

Woman's Voice: I'm hurt. He really did a number on you... *Right next to his bed now* They always set these IV's far too low... There that should feel better soon.

Jaune: *Finally getting a look now that the woman is close enough. His eyes going wide. His heart monitor starting to beep rapidly* Cccin... Cccinder

Why is talking so damn hard

Cinder: That's better, and don't worry I'm not here to kill you. Wouldn't be very fair. No, I came to do something else. *She leans close to his ear* Thank you for killing him.

Jaune: *Still struggling to speak even a single word. Things just starting to come back to him* Www...w-why?

Cinder: *Standing back up all prim and proper smiling ear to ear* Now that's a question for your isn't it? Maybe I'll answer it if you catch me again... maybe not... *Turns to walk away* Get well soon, Jaune. Make me wait too long, and I'll have to go after little red again. We can't have you loosing your attention for me now~

Jaune: *His heart monitor starts to beep faster again. Tries in vain to move his arms, his legs, anything* Nnnngh! D-Don't!

I need to move! I need to! dammit! Why wont anything move!

Cinder: *Still smiling like a maniac, putting a single finger to her lips* Shhhh, if you're so worried about her, then make sure you recover soon. *Slowly closing he door behind her, starting to laugh* Catch me if you can, Jaune~

Jaune: *Watches her leave. Breathing hard even as he still tries to move any part of his body regardless of the pain or the soreness*

This time, though, all the good in him was gone. It died in that hospital bed when Cinder decided to show up once more and run salt in the wounds that had not healed. Jaune then raised his right hand, or what was now his right hand. Most of what he wore now was more to cover up the machine parts that now made up his internal organs, lower jaw, and right arm, having been under the affects of the poison for so long. The larger of the two tubes in his mask was meant to help him breathe in toxic environments while the smaller one was meant to be plugged into his hydration system as the filter for it sat against his sternum. The poison had also left most of his skin a deathly pale color while also leaving black lines over where his veins and arteries were, showing just how far the poison had gotten before he was finally stable.

During his stay in the hospital, he had learned something he should have a long time ago: the world doesn’t care where you’re from, only that you suffer, and it will only keep taking from you, more and more until you’re all out of things left to give, and when that finally happens, it’ll take your life, your body, and your soul, and even then it won’t be satisfied until it’s taken everything that makes you who you are and breaks it and corrupts it for its own pleasure.

Then, he had a rather… dark and twisted thought enter his head: if the world was fucked anyways. Why not be the one that starts the flame that finally burns the world to the ground, take all the major players out in one fell swoop and finally, finally, feel something that actually felt real. Just like when…

Just like when Pyrrha was still here.

Jaune then stood up, his mind made up, his decision resolute, and his plan already thought out. He just needed the materials and the equipment to put it into motion. Now that he thought about it, though, Jaune realized that the old him really had died on that hospital bed as the old him never would have even entertained the idea, but like he had thought, the old him DID die on the hospital bed and he had simply been the one to take his place. He was no longer Jaune Arc, he was Higgs now, and he was not going to let anyone stop him.

Weiss: Don’t you dare! I don’t want you to ruin ruin this for her!

Whitley: Winter, how did this… upright ape (Jaune), convince you to date him? Is it blackmail, a bet you lost? There has to be a logical reason that explains this.

Winter: “Yes, that was it.” Winter than took a sip of her tea before setting the now empty teacup down.

Whitely: “Huh.” After that, he was quiet for a moment. “How good was it?”

Winter: “Honestly, if I hadn’t seen him make it, I would have thought that Klein had made it rather than Jaune.”

Whitely: “Really?” Whitely remained quiet for another moment before asking one last question. “Do you think he would be okay making lunch for me as well for whenever I head of to school?”

Winter: “Honestly, I’d be surprised if he didn’t start working here as one of the chefs with how skilled he is.” She then looked towards Whitely, with a slightly heated look. “Just remember, he’s not a servant you can just boss around, he’s my significant other, and should be given the proper respect he deserves.”

Yang: (Snickers) Hey, guys, check this out~. (Lights Jaune's hair on fire)

Ruby: Hey, Jaune~! Don't be such a HOT head~!

Jaune: What?

Weiss: Wow, Jaune, you sure look HOT today~.

Jaune: What?!

Blake: Hey, Jaune, Yang set your hair on fire.

Jaune:

It wouldn’t be until a week later that he was approached by a rather… strange man by the name of Calypso. He said that he could help Jaune with his current predicament. All he had to do was win his contest, and his desire would be fulfilled. He even showed him a bit of his power, showing that he could very well grant Jaune his freedom from this blasted curse. All Jaune had to do was win Calypso’s contest, Twisted Metal, and he’d be free. He’d even be given a car to drive for it, named Death Warrant. With those kinds of stakes on the line, how could Jaune ever say no?
