(A/N: Thank you Guest for pointing out the title. A bit of a mix up. I have fixed the title to the proper one.)

Ozpin's Academy: Chapter 3

-Ozpin's Punishment: Part 1-

Ozpin calmly sipped his mug as he stared out the window behind his office desk. As a benefit of having his office as high as it was, the window offered a fantastic view of the surrounding land. From his office he could see the city of Vale, the beautiful river, and the thriving landscape itself. Or that's what he would normally see at any rate.

Currently his vision of the city and any other wonderful view of the land was blocked by a massive column of black smoke. Ozpin swirled his mug around lightly, letting the delicious brew stir around. He knew exactly how all of this came about, and destruction of school property aside, he felt it was all worth it in the end. Ozpin looked down at the ground, seeing his blonde assistant as she stormed across the school grounds towards Beacon Tower. He could feel the heat of her glare from his nice, cool, and cozy office.

Ozpin took another sip from his mug as he saw teachers and students rushing around in an attempt to put out the courtyard's new bonfire.

Ozpin knew Glynda would be heading up the elevator to chew him out. She has had to fix many different kinds of messes today. It certainly didn't help that he needed to get some paperwork done in his office and was unable to help her out when this mess started piling up.

Ozpin looked at the dreadful work he had to do, the couple of papers littering his desk made his hand twitch in agony at the thought. Oh yes, he simply had too much to do today. Ozpin looked back out the window as he recalled what happened only four hours ago.


"There is a package for you sir," said Glynda as a delivery gentleman rolling a trolley with a metal box on it came into his office.

"Yeah, I got somethin' for an... Oz-Pin?" said the delivery man. "Just got ta sign here."

The delivery man held up a holo-pad and a stylus, Ozpin promptly signed and gave the man back the items. The delivery man wasted no time in unloading the box from his trolley and set it down in front of Ozpin's desk.

"Thank you," Ozpin said. The delivery man simply tipped his hat and left Ozpin's office.

Glynda looked at her boss and asked, "Do I even want to know?"

Ozpin merely shrugged, "It's nothing important Glynda. Just a few extra supplies for one of my hobbies."

Glynda didn't seem to buy it, but sighed anyway. "Just don't cause too much trouble sir, I'll be roaming around the school before my next combat class."

Ozpin waited until his assistant left before pushing a button on the lid of the box. The metal box hissed and slowly opened to reveal its contents. Several cans of ThirstyPower energy drinks revealed themselves to the world, and Ozpin could not help but crack a sly smirk. He picked one up and read part of the label.

"Now with real lightning Dust, hmm?"

While Ozpin doubted the drink had actual Dust in it, as that would be extremely harmful to one's body, he didn't doubt the fact that anyone who drinks this would have energy for the day and then some.

Ozpin kept the single drink in hand as he closed the box before heading over to the elevator. It was around noon, so who could blame him for wanting to get something to eat?


The trip to the cafeteria was uneventful, other than the fact he was receiving odd looks from his students. It was not often he wasn't seen holding his usual coffee mug, even less with another drink in hand. Ozpin pushed the doors to the cafeteria open and strolled in, keeping a lookout for his target.

He spotted her amongst her usual group, her team on one side of the table and team RWBY on the other. Ozpin couldn't help but think that the reason Mr. Arc was sitting furthest from Ms. Long was because he came close to siring her a niece or nephew. And the fact she was still giving him the mother of all death glares would be a good indicator, even if it has been a good week since that little incident. The orange hair of his target was not easily missed, nor was her upbeat and loud personality. Ozpin made his way over and stood a respectful distance.

"Good afternoon children. How is everything coming along today?" Ozpin asked.

They generally replied with their usual cheer. Jaune gave a nervous thumbs up, "Doin' good Professor, could be better though."

Ozpin turned his attention to Nora, "Ms. Valkyrie, what would you do if I told you that you have been chosen to try out a new drink I might wish to put in the vending machines? I wish to have a student's opinion before I do anything."

"Ooh! Sounds good!" Nora was on her feet instantly, saluting Ozpin with a wide grin.

Ozpin handed the energy drink over to her, not saying a word as he sent a casual disarming smile. Nora took it from him and instantly popped the top before chugging it. Her partner Ren happened to look back at the two.

When Ren saw what Nora was drinking the normally stoic boy's eyes widened considerably and horror slowly struck his face. He held out a desperate hand as he screamed out a long and tortuous, "Nooooooooo!"

Nora finished chugging the drink and gave a sigh of satisfaction, sticking her tongue out cutely. Nothing seemed to happen for a second, which made Ozpin think nothing was going to actually happen after all. That was until Nora dawned a creepy grin on her face, her eyes dilating into small pinpricks, and started vibrating in place. Ozpin blinked at the display and as soon as his eyes reopened Nora was gone, leaving only an empty can spinning briefly in the air before clattering to the ground.

Ren's haunted look turned to face the headmaster, and with defeated eyes he simply squeaked out a pitiful, "Why?"

Ozpin didn't look at his pitiful looking student, instead he stoically stood in the cafeteria letting the children stew in their thoughts. Everyone concerned over just what could make the quiet boy shout like that. After a few moments of silence Ozpin turned his head ever so slowly, his gaze eventually resting firmly on Jaune.

Ozpin leaned forward on his cane, getting eye level with the young man. "Because for the past week I've had a full moon burnt deeply into my psyche. I've even lost sleep because of it."

Jaune looked at the headmaster nervously, "Ahahaha… you don't look sleep deprived sir. Just as youthful looking as ever, heh..."

Ozpin straightened back up, "By the way, Ms. Valkyrie is now your responsibility Mr. Arc. You must reign in her rampage, to my satisfaction standards. You may bring in the other members of your team to help you, but no others. Punishment for not meeting my expectations will be dire." An explosion was heard in the background along with several screams, "You'd best hurry up now Mr. Arc. And do not forget that I have cameras watching this school, I will be watching your progress as well."

Jaune, now terrified, sprinted out of the cafeteria with his teammates following quickly behind him. The rest of the group and the cafeteria was left with awkward silence as the other first year team and the headmaster of the school watched the other team leave out the doors.

"Uh, Professor Ozpin?" Ruby eventually asked, breaking the silence.

"Yes, child?"

"You're… not going to expel Jaune or anything right? I mean, he is our friend and… it would really suck if he left."

"Oh yeah, you two were getting real chummy! Real best friends there!" Yang blurted out, slamming a fist on the table.

"Ugh! Would you give it a rest Yang! It's been a week already! Just drop it!" Ruby retorted.

Ozpin held a hand up, "Now, now. Let's not get into a fight, we don't need a repeat of the last time you girls did that here." Nervous laughing and glances went around, "And do not fret Ruby Rose, I'm not going to expel him or do anything of that sort. I was just creating… motivation. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm needed in my office. I have some security to go over..."

With that Ozpin turned around and walked calmly out the doors.

(A/N: Here's the next! And don't forget to share any ideas for pranks Ozpin and Qrow could do to each other. Or any potential destruction Nora could cause, I can always add any fun extras in.)
