Including Juniper In His Schemes

The rest of the day carried on with classes.

Team RWBY’s next class after Grimm Studies had been Dust Studies with Professor Blewett. A very pretty woman with short blonde hair, blue eyes and who wore a lot of blue. She had a blue blouse under a white lab coat and a long dark blue skirt that reached her shins. She completed the look with blue high-heels. Her expertise was in the chemical properties and application of Dust.

The Professor was attractive enough for Gray to consider including her in his tests. Her breasts were impressive in her almost tight blouse, while her hips were wide enough to make her skirt look somewhat stretched over her flat stomach. Gray definitely imagined many teacher-student scenarios between her and himself. For now, though, he just let the class unfold naturally.

It was an interesting class, too. Most students already had a firm grasp of the basics of Dust application in weaponry. For example, Dust bullets. The Professor, however, took time to explain how Dust could be used in just about any aspect of life for a Huntsman or Huntress. Not just for weapons but also armor, clothing and tools. Even food preservation for long missions in the field.

Briefly, she mentioned how Dust was used in civilian life, too. Like in household appliances and civilian vehicles.

The most interesting part of the class, for Gray at least, was the connection Professor Blewett made between Dust and Aura.

“Given enough time and experience working with your Aura–” The professor said, raising one of her hands. A sky-blue glow enveloping her digits. “–and coming to know and understand how Dust particles work and interact with the world–” she then raised her other hand, holding a crystal form of water Dust. Blewett then brought her glowing hand over to the crystal, making it glow in turn. Her hand then came away, bringing with it a stream of clear water, glowing just like the crystal and the Professors hand.

The students watched, enraptured, as the Professor performed a water and light show so intricate and complex that even Gray was left staring. Strands of water laced away from the main stream and flew around to create weaving threads. Those threads passed around each other to create a tapestry of water as the Professor guided everything with her hands.

“–you won’t need a specific type of Semblance to manipulate the elements.” Professor Blewett told the class with a bright smile as the display glowed above the classroom.

Gray glanced over to Weiss at that statement. The heiress was blinking in amazement, her mouth hanging open slightly. The girl whose Semblance was to manipulate the elements with Dust looked shocked to see someone do exactly the same thing she could do. Only with just their Aura. And with such dexterity and control.

Suddenly, all the water flowed deliberately into a metal tub by the Professors desk. She smiled at the class as she placed the water Dust crystal down. For some reason, everyone in the class felt the need to applaud the woman for her performance. She even bowed to her audience with a small laugh before the class quieted down.

“If you pay attention this year, and for the rest of your time here at Beacon Academy, I’ll make sure you are knowledgeable and experienced enough to take on the world.” Professor Blewett told them, confidence in her voice. “No matter what you decide to do.”

And with that the bell rang and the class had come to an end.

---

The students now had a half hour break.

“I don’t know about you guys,” Yang was saying to her team. “But I’m already feeling a little blown away.”

Team RWBY was using their break to take a stroll around the campus grounds. They were walking as a group, with JNPR not far behind, along a walkway that was similar to the one they had taken to get to the initiation cliff. The stonework of the path mixed with the trees and patches of grass made for a very scenic route. They passed other students on the way, both new ones like themselves and older students.

Gray noticed more than a few cute girls in their travels. They all seemed to wear their skirts short, with a couple choosing to wear them a little bit longer. He kept his eyes from straying to the other female students for too long, just in case someone complained. He didn’t want to have to think of a command on the fly to smooth things over.

He definitely could. He just wanted to be able to think things through first.

“I know what you mean.” Blake responded to Yang. “We’ve only had two lessons and I’m feeling a little out of my depth.”

“Right? At first, that Professor Port guy seemed like a blowhard, but he actually knew his stuff,” Yang said, her hands held behind her head as she walked. “Professor Blewett, though.” Yang whistled low between her lips. “I’ve never seen anyone make a waterpark inside a classroom before.”

Blake just nodded along silently.

Oddly, both Ruby and Weiss seemed really silent too as they walked with the group. Gray was reminded of what happened in the first two classes of the day, and why these two might be acting this way. Ever since Grimm Studies Ruby had been a little... off. Her mind had been elsewhere, deep in thought. She had paid attention to Professor Blewett, though, but after Dust Studies she had gone right back to spacing out.

Weiss seemed to be a little pensive too. Gray imagined that what she had seen from Professor Blewett must have shaken her pride a little. After all, Weiss’ Semblance was particularly suited towards controlling Dust. It was basically her talent. Sure, people could manipulate Dust to certain degrees with just their Aura, but she must have never met anyone who could do so to such a high degree like the Professor could. In a way, Weiss’ Glyphs might not have been as flexible or creative as the Professors use of a water crystal. That singular display must have outmatched Weiss’ own ability by a great deal.

Finding out that you weren’t that special must have been a big blow to her ego.

And Ruby...

He wasn’t sure about Ruby. Maybe finding out that Grimm could be more dangerous than anything the little reaper had ever faced before had opened her eyes. Perhaps Ruby realized that fighting on her own in the initiation, despite having Weiss with her, was a little arrogant.

Who knew, Gray shrugged to himself. If they both had a learning experience from those lessons, great.

Anyway, their walk around the campus had led them back to the sports fields. Many students were using the grassy areas and benches to lounge around before they had to get to their next lessons. Some students were even sitting in the stone seats of the small arena.

“Seems like a nice place to chill,” Gray said to the girls. “You guys want to sit around here for a bit?”

“Sounds good to me.” Yang replied.

“Sure.” Blake said, nodding easily.

The other two girls seemed to agree too, even if they weren’t showing much in the way of enthusiasm.

The group, with JNPR close behind, found a nice spot near a tree that was close to the small arena. The stone depression in the ground sat to Gray’s left, with the tree at his back. The branches and leaves provided a nice cover of shade, even if the day wasn’t that bright. JNPR sat with RWBY in a comfortable and friendly clump.

The rest of their break time was taken up with friendly banter between first-year students. Ruby and Weiss seemed to come out of their little funk for a little bit as well. However, Gray could still tell that they were a little bit subdued, and it seemed that Yang, and even Jeanne, could tell something was off.

There wasn’t much that they could do to help them though. Not now at least.

Though, Jeanne did decide to sit next to the younger girl, with Yang on Ruby’s other side. Jeanne brushed shoulders with her and tried involving her in conversation often.

It didn’t seem like anyone knew what to do for Weiss, though. Other than talk with her of course.

While the big group chatted pleasantly, Gray had the idea to use his Semblance. It wasn’t that he had a new idea to play around with, though. It was more because Team JNPR was another all-girl team and Gray was feeling a little selfish. So, he was going to repeat the commands he made to Team RWBY last night, but this time they’ll be for JNPR.

“Professor Blewett was so pretty,” Jeanne was saying, voicing her admiration for the teacher’s appearance. “And she looks so young too. She can’t be older than thirty. Maybe even younger.”

“Perhaps the Professor earned the roll not long after graduating herself?” Pyrrha suggested. “She is definitely talented enough to earn it.”

“What does someone need to do to earn a position at an academy anyway?” Blake asked. Not asking anyone in particular, just out of simple curiosity.

“I believe there are rigorous exams,” The quiet Ren offered. Her voice was pretty, if a little deeper than most girls. She sounded mature and very much like an older sister type. “Along with requiring an impressive portfolio of achievements.”

“Where did you learn that?” Yang asked.

“It was on the academy’s home page.” The dignified girl replied. “They asserted that all their professors were the top of their respective fields and that they had many achievements to their names.”

“Huh.” Was the noise Yang made, acknowledging the girls answer.

Gray took out his scroll while everyone talked about the attractive professor and academy position requirements. He looked through the list of commands he had made since he started noting them down. Most of them were still easily applicable, even if he used them on someone who wasn’t in his team. A couple others might need a little tweaking, but otherwise were still the same.

As the girls talked Gray would occasionally interject with a statement thrown at Team JNPR.

“None of you will mind if I ever have an erection.” He said, loudly enough for all the present girls to hear.

The girls of Team JNPR all looked at him and gave their various forms of affirmations. Nods or spoken words. Even the girls of Team RWBY would nod along, probably because Gray didn’t specify who exactly he was talking to. He thought that it was fine though. He wasn’t really overwriting anything.

The girls continued to talk with each other between those moments.

“Any idea why Professor Port spent so much time talking about nonsense before getting on with the lesson?” Yang asked the rest of the girls.

Many of the girls shrugged.

“Maybe he was trying to stroke his ego for a bunch of first years,” Weiss said dismissively. “Perhaps he thought it would get him more respect than to actually teach a lesson. Who knows why anyone blusters?”

With one ear on the conversation, and watching Yang to see if the portly professor’s flirting was still bothering her, Gray thought about other commands to Team JNPR. He had at least one idea for their team specifically.

“The girls of Team JNPR won’t mind if I go into their dorm room whenever I feel like it.” He said to them. The girls nodded again. Of course, Gray realized that he wouldn’t be able to get into their room unless he had a room key, but he had a plan for that. He’ll just try and get Ozpin and Goodwitch to give him the keys to both Team RWBY and JNPR at the end of the day.

That command... was the only one he could come up with presently. Although, it's not like he needed anything more than simple access to their room. He might come up with something else later, though.

Looking back at the list of commands on his scroll he noticed that the time allotted for their break was almost over. They had about less than ten minutes. So, he tapped down his latest command and put his scroll away.

While waiting for the bell to ring, signaling the next class session, Gray just sat and admired the girls around him.

They all sat in proper ladylike ways. Their legs pulled together and to the side so as to avoid revealing their underwear in public. However, what was being shown was still sexy. Either bare-legs, legs in tights or in stockings or socks. It didn’t matter to Gray. All of it was sexy to him, and he drank it all in.

Blake, in her knee-high socks, sat on Gray’s left and was the closest to him at present. He lifted his left hand and reached out to the cat girl. He placed his hand on her warm thigh and stroked her for his own pleasure. Honestly, just the fact that he could do that to a girl in front of others in public did something to the pleasure centers in his brain. There were eight girls in front of him and none of them paid attention to the boy in their midst stroking their friend's leg. Just because he could, Gray lifted Blake’s skirt to look at her panties.

Her black underwear looked sexy on her creamy white body. Gray had the sudden urge to hold her down and fuck her in front of both teams. He didn’t though. Despite his Semblance, he felt a little more cautious out here in the open. Plus, she hadn’t had time to use the meditation contraceptive technique yet.

That gave him an idea.

He let go of his Semblance.

“How many of you girls use Aura meditation?” Gray asked all the girls after letting Blake’s skirt fall back to her legs. They all paused in their conversations and looked his way.

Yang raised her hand. “You already know I do.”

“You told me to start doing that just this morning.” Blake answered, looking unbothered by the fact that he had his hand on her skirt just then.

Pyrrha raised her hand. “It does help improve my focus.”

“I learned to do it as part of my training.” Weiss told him.

“I–I’ve done it a couple times, but kinda forget to keep up with it.” Jeanne said, sounding a little sheepish.

The quiet dark-haired girl, Lian Ren, also raised her hand. Which honestly made sense, considering her quiet and dignified presence. She didn’t offer any words though.

Gray looked over to the hyperactive ginger, Nora. The girl shrugged while giggling a little nervously.

“I can barely stay in one place without getting bored. And meditation sounds booooooring.” Nora complained. Gray laughed a little. That also made sense, considering her very bouncy attitude.

Gray looked to Ruby next.

“Um...” Was all the girl said, looking confused. “...I’ve heard of it...”

Suddenly, Yang smacked her hand to her forehead.

“That’s right. They don’t start teaching that practically until the last year of Signal.” Yang groaned.

“And Ruby skipped a year.” Blake said, nodding in understanding.

The rest of the girls seemed to understand the situation. Weiss, however, looked very unimpressed and seemed to be getting ready to chew the girl out. Gray instantly turned his Semblance on.

“Weiss,” He called to get her attention. The prissy, haughty girl looked his way. “Don’t blame Ruby for not knowing. It’s not her fault that she skipped a year of school. And Aura meditation isn’t exactly a requirement.”

Gray watched as the girl’s face cleared. She then simply looked down at the ground, deep in thought. Just like she was after their Dust Studies class. Gray watched her for a moment longer before taking his attention back to the rest of the group and letting go of his Semblance.

Ruby had asked what Aura meditation was and the girls were trying to explain.

“It’s like exercise, but for your Aura.” Yang said. Which, in Gray’s opinion, didn’t really do it justice.

“I would say it’s more relaxing than exercise, though you aren’t completely wrong Yang.” Pyrrha corrected.

“I would say that it’s similar to the Mistral practice of improving circulation... what was it called again?” Jeanne offered, while not remembering the name of said practice. Fortunately, Ren came to the rescue.

“Do you mean yoga?” She asked.

“Yeah, that! It’s like yoga, but without all the poses. Just even breathing and a calm mind.” Jeanne explained.

“...oh. Cool...” Ruby said, sounding uncertain.

Before the girls could go on and try to over-explain to the girl, Gray turned his Semblance back on.

“All of you are going to use Aura meditation at least once a week, starting tonight.” He commanded them. “Even you Nora. In fact, Aura meditation is something all of you want to try and do, even if it’s just to use it to prevent pregnancies. Of course, you can still use it to improve you Aura control in other ways if you want.”

The girls all nodded or said yes in various ways.

“The ones that don’t know how to do it, don’t be afraid to ask the ones that do.” More nods.

Feeling satisfied, Gray thought about anything else he could convey to them. He also felt like he did Team JNPR a favor by helping their hyperactive member calm down. At least once a week. Who knows? This might lead to a less stressed-out Ren. The small bags under her eyes told him that she needed the extra peace and quiet.

Another thought occurred to Gray. A thought that came from the selfish perverted side of him.

“Also, all eight of you will have no romantic or sexual interest in other men besides me.” He told them, feeling a little bit bad about trapping them like this. However, his perverted mind won out. He saw them nod and continued. “Even if you might not feel any romantic or sexual feelings towards me right now or ever, I’m the only male that you could be attracted to romantically or sexually. You can still be attracted to other girls, though.”

The girls nodded again.

“You also feel no jealousy about me being with other girls. You all feel like it’s perfectly fine if I have multiple lovers. Who I flirt with, or get intimate with never bothers you.” Gray finished. After the girls gave their nods, Gray felt like he could have added something else like them being aroused by Gray being with others, but he thought it might be best to address such things like fetishes on an individual basis.

Before he could say anything more, the school bell chimed across the campus grounds. He glanced at the tall clock tower, with its green light, and let his Semblance go again. He turned back to the girls and waited for them to make moves to get up.

“Alright, let's get back to having our minds blown away.” Yang was the first to move while Gray watched her skirt flutter dangerously for his viewing pleasure. After that the rest of the girls did the same and got up. The view for Gray was filled with sexy legs while his face was on the same level as their thighs and hips.

Once they were all up, he finally stood up, feeling a little self-conscious about the boner he was sporting until he **** himself to not care much. His commands should have stuck, so these girls shouldn’t mind. It was other people that might make a fuss, so he adjusted himself now, in front of his team and JNPR before any other people could see. Like he expected RWBY and JNPR didn’t seem to mind at all. Even after he noticed a couple of them glance at his crotch.

“Okay, let's go get educated.” Gray said, completely on board with getting his mind blown away.
