Rising Dawn Reboot AU.

Jaune finds Aurora not from the streets of Vacuo, but in a cell of a white fang facility, chained up, bruised, skin paled and looked like she had not eaten in weeks. Why? Because she is a rare breed of Dragon Faunus with more than one trait.

Reason why she is locked up? Adam found her, taking her away and use her as a weapon against humanity due to Dragon Faunus’ can command other Faunus to fight for them and have the ability to turn to an actual dragon which makes her kind very dangerous and so powerful that they are on par with the first humans with magic, before they were wiped out. Because of this, the race of Faunus were hunted down to almost extinction.

After freeing her, Aurora began to attach herself to him and follows him where ever he goes. So Jaune decides to raise her as his own, as he travels around and reach Vale to become a Huntsman.

Ok... I really weirdly like this idea.

Aurora, being a faunus, specifically a dragon faunus, somewhat fits her being named after the dawn and adds to her importance to the story, and puts a target on her back as well as Jaunes.

Plus, it gives me a reason for Adam to agree to attack Beacon for two reasons.

However, while I like the idea, I think I might stick with my original idea for her, since I already added more importance to her characters, but maybe I'll keep her a faunus, maybe make her some type of reptile faunus... Give her a dragon motif.

Oh, maybe a Komodo Dragon Faunus!

Now I'm imagining her crawling up jaune like a little feral lizard XD

Jaune, Gillian, Cardin, and Ashara began packing their gear, readying themselves to join Nora, SSSN, RWBY, and the others outside the Village. They were preparing to face Jax and the rest of the crown in a battle that would determine their future.

Aurora approached her father, her face etched with concern. "Do you really have to go?" she asked, her voice trembling.

Jaune looked at her, his eyes filled with determination. "You know I do, sweetheart. I have to make sure this plan works," he replied, his tone firm but gentle.

Aurora's brow furrowed with worry. "And what about Uncle Jax? What will you do about him?" she asked, her voice barely above a whisper.

Jaune took a deep breath, releasing it in a heavy sigh. "You know what we have to do about him," he said, his expression pained.

"But why?" Aurora pleaded. "He doesn't have to die. What good will it do if he's gone?"

"It's going to stop this chaos, all of it," Jaune replied, his voice steady, though his heart ached.

"Is it?" Aurora challenged, her eyes searching his for answers.

Jaune shook his head slowly. "Aurora, you may not understand it now, but you will in the future," he told her, his voice filled with a mix of sorrow and resolve.

Aurora's eyes shimmered with unshed tears as she looked at her father. "I just want everyone to be happy," she whispered.

"I know, sweetie," Jaune said softly, pulling her into a tight embrace. "I know."

As Jaune, Gillian, Cardin, and Ashara finished their preparations, the weight of the coming battle hung heavy in the air. They knew the risks, but they also knew what was at stake. With one final glance at his daughter, Jaune steeled himself for what lay ahead, hoping that one day Aurora would understand the sacrifices they made for a better future.

Aurora stood at the edge of the town, watching as her parents and their companions disappeared into the distance. Worry etched deep lines into her young face—not just for her parents but also for her uncle. She understood the gravity of his actions, knew that what he was doing was wrong and needed to be stopped, but the thought of him dying filled her with dread.

Her heart ached at the conflicting emotions swirling within her. She wanted him to be part of the future everyone always talked about, the brighter tomorrow they were all fighting for. Despite his misguided choices, he was still family. And family was supposed to stick together, to keep each other safe.

Tears welled up in Aurora's eyes as she whispered to the empty air, "Please, come back safe... all of you." She clung to the hope that somehow, they could find a way to end the conflict without more loss, without having to say goodbye forever to someone she loved.

Her uncle might be on the wrong side of things now, but in her heart, she believed in redemption, in second chances. He was family, after all. And no matter what, she held onto the belief that family could find their way back to each other, even from the darkest of paths.

As she turned back towards the village, the weight of the world seemed to rest on her small shoulders. She knew the road ahead was fraught with peril, but she also knew that hope was a powerful force. And for her, hope meant believing in a future where her family could be whole again.

Aurora's Dream...

Aurora nestled herself in Gillian's lap, her mother's gentle embrace cocooning her. Her father, Jaune, sat close beside them, wrapping his arms around both his wife and daughter, creating a protective circle of love. Aurora inhaled a trembling breath, her lips curling into a faint, yet heartfelt smile. "I... had a dream," she murmured softly.

Gillian's eyes glistened with unshed tears as she returned her daughter's smile, trying to mask the pain searing through her heart. "About what, sweetheart?" she asked, her voice wavering but warm.

Aurora's gaze grew distant, lost in the vivid recollection of her dream. "We made our own home, our own village, with Auntie Nora," she began, her voice filled with a fragile hope. "I had a little sister, a cute one... and everyone was there... Carmine, Ren, Cardin, Ruby... Even Uncle Jax was there... Everyone was so happy... I wish I could see it,"

Jaune's tears flowed freely, his sorrow too great to contain. He let out a heavy, shuddering sigh, his voice breaking as he spoke. "You can... J-Just hold on, ok? Stay strong, please, Aurora," he pleaded, his desperation raw and palpable.

Aurora's own tears welled up, slowly spilling down her cheeks. Fear gnawed at her heart. She didn't want to leave; she longed to stay with her parents. She knew they were just as terrified as she was, and the thought of their sadness tore at her soul.

But there was nothing they could do.

Summoning the last of her strength, Aurora's voice came out as a frail whisper. "Mom... Dad...?"

Gillian's heart clenched at the sound of her daughter's voice, so full of innocence and need. "What is it, little starlight?" she asked, her tone tender, though it quivered with emotion.

Aurora let out a heart-wrenching sob, her voice breaking as she spoke. "Promise me... that I'll see my dream... even if I'm not here..." she pleaded, her words filled with a desperate hope.

Jaune's voice caught in his throat. "Aurora-"

"Arc's word... both of you, promise me..." Aurora implored, her tears cascading down her cheeks.

Jaune felt his heart constrict painfully, each beat a reminder of the helplessness he felt. He nodded slowly, holding both Aurora and Gillian tighter and closer, his tears falling like rain. "I promise," he whispered, his voice thick with emotion.

Gillian's own tears flowed freely, like waterfalls, as she nodded in agreement. "I promise," she echoed, her voice trembling.

A soft giggle escaped Aurora's lips, a small, serene smile gracing her face. "Thank you..." she said, her voice barely above a whisper. "I love you,"

"We love you too, Aurora," Gillian replied, her tone saturated with pain and love.

Aurora took in another deep, shaky breath, her chest rising slowly. As she exhaled, a long, gentle sigh escaped her lips, and with that, the life seemed to drain from her body.

The moment Aurora's breath left her lungs, she went limp.

Feeling the change, Gillian and Jaune looked down at Aurora, their faces contorting with horror and disbelief.

"A-Aurora...?" Jaune called out, his voice cracking under the weight of his sorrow.

There was no answer.

Panic surged through Gillian as she frantically brushed the hair out of her daughter's face, looking into her half-lidded eyes. "Aurora! Aurora! Baby, wake up!" she cried, her voice filled with desperation.

Jaune's panic mirrored Gillian's as he gently cradled Aurora's head, his eyes wide with fear. "Come on, sweetie! Stay with us! D-Don't go!" he begged, his voice trembling.

Despite their frantic pleas and desperate begging, it was to no avail. Aurora Arc had passed away, and the reality of their loss settled in like a heavy fog. All they could do was weep uncontrollably, their tears flowing freely as they clung to their daughter's lifeless body, their hearts shattered beyond repair.

Got a change to leave work early, and I took it, and just when I arrived home, Postal Service Van was right behind me to deliver a package.

I’d pre-ordered Bump of Chicken’s Aurora Arc and it’s now in my hands, with the bonus clear file, and first press sticker and the booklet has all these cool photos taken by the band and a pro photographer at Yellowknife in Canada.

It also came with a paper that includes some serial number. I can’t understand what the paper days, but it seems to be about the Aurora Arc concert tour? Maybe it was to enter a raffle for a concert ticket? Is it even still a valid code? Not that I would be able to use it anyways.

Anyways, I'm happy I got it so soon.
