Shaun was the first to awake, his wolf senses immediately taking notes of his surrounding. He always did this, his skill as a predator was mainly based on the ability to make tactical descisions based off the enviorment. Owen was the second to wake up, the rookie was still getting used to all of his surroundings.

"Still getting used to the fact of your position?" Shaun asked as the other member came to.

"Yeah, still not used to getting up on my own," Owen said as he jumped out of bed and quickly put on his beacon uniform, "Still not used to Rick not getting us up in the morning."

Shaun looked at his sleeping leader, "Yeah, I remember that well. He used to get up before the crack of dawn and look at the news. He did like to stay on top of things."

"Yeah, or maybe he did stuff that he doesn't want us to see." Said a now woken up Alex, his fox eyes gleaming in a speacil way.

"Yeah, Yeah. We all know that you think that Rick is some kind of super perv," Shaun stated, "I could buy that, if I didn't look at his scroll every night. So no, he was not a pervert."

Alex shrugged before pulling on his uniform before asking, "So, whose turn is it to wake him up?"

Shaun turned to Owen, "Your day today."

Owen shot the wolf faunas a mean look before walking to Rick sleeping form. He was working out how to do this in his mind before telling out, "Ah screw it!"

He ripped off the sheets of the bed to reveal… a sleeping Rick in his underwear, who was also awaken by the theft. He fixed the offender with firerey rage in his eyes.

"I will skip rope with your intestines!" He yelled before tackling the rookie and firmly planting his hand on Owens throat.

"Guys, a little help?" Owen gasped out to the laughing faces of his two teammates.

Rick got his bearing before realizing that he had just choked out one of his teammates.

"Sorry." He stated before he pulled Owen to his feet.

"OK, what on the schedule for today?" Rick yelled out at Alex, who calmly pulled out his scroll.

"Our first class is weapon training in…five…minutes." Alex stammered, before bolting out the door with everyone else, other than Rick who first grabbed his clothes before running after the rest of his team. It was a hilaruos sight, three teens running while a fourth ran putting on clothes. Rick had almost put on his shirt when his burst into the classroom.

Goodwitch was, to say, furuose. The rest of the class was shocked, and Weiss looked at the leader with even more distaste.

"Sorry!" Rick yelled out as he ran to where his team was sitting, next to team EMBR.

"Well then," Goodwitch stated annoyingly, "Now that is done, we can move on."

Goodwitch looked at the two new teams, "Ozpin has requeasted that we observe your combat abilities, you have all been assigned to a sparring partners who you will duel. Standered tournament rules apply. Any questions?"

Rick raised his hand, "Yeah what are we allowed to use in the fight?"

Goodwitch eyed the teen with poisin, "I am well aware of your record in your other school, but we believe in full power. You can use any technique as long as it doesn't interfere with school policy."

Rick slumped at that.

"The first match will be Cardin Winchester VS Jaune Arc" Glynda yelled out as Ben moved closer to Rick.

"Why so down? You can fight any way you like to." Ben asked before the two were interrupted by the sound of Jaune getting creamed.

"It's just that I still can't use more than these two swords." Rick stated glumly before wincing at Jaune getting hit again.

"Wait, why can't you? I thought that it was only the last academy that wouldn't let you use more than two?" Ben asked before also wincing at the pounding the Jaune was receiving.

"No, it was carried over. The process of transfer carries over all documents. The only way I could get it relieved would be if Ozpin approved," Rick paused at the sound of another blow, "Anyway, am I the only one who is noticing that Jaune is getting beat like Gavin from Achieve Men."

"Yeah, I noticed. At least he is trying." Ben stated before watching Jaune try a final charge that completely ended him, the blow that hit him was enough to make the two hunters wince.

Glynda quickly stated the winner and dished out advice to the fallen warrior, although it seemed more like a discipline than a helpful hint.

"The next fight will be between Ruby Rose and Owen Cliv." Glynda announced to the crowd.

"Bets?" Ben whispered to Rick as the pair approached the arena.

"Definitly Ruby," Rick whispered back, "Owens fast, but I think that big gun on her weapon will equal it out."

The two fighters took the arena, Owen with his weapon in melee form while Ruby did likewise. The two fighters eyed each other, then the buzzer sounded. Owen opened up with a charge at the girl who did likewise. As the two got closer, Owen swung the chain part of his weapon at Ruby. Ruby dodged quickly, before rushing forward to close the gap.

Owen quickly compensated by swingout with the bladed handle, Ruby blocked with Crescent Rose, before swinging it at Owens legs. Owen couldn't block that so part of his aura was gone. Thinking fast he kicked out as hard as he could, he scored a hit that lowed Rubies aura. Ruby quickly smiled to Owens confusion, he then noticed the barrel running down the side of Ruby's weapon.

The match was over quickly, Owen had no way to dodge the blast of high-caliber sniper shot that had exploded out of the weapon. Ruby offered him a hand which he took.

"Nice," He yelled, "I was wondering where I would stand in this school. Nice to know that I am not going to have a easy time."

"Yeah, but you still fought well." Ruby laughed as the two walked off stage, now friends.

"Told ya, big gun equals big fun." Rick said before Glynda announced the next match "Shaun Peg VS Blake Belladonna."

The pair approached the arena, same set up as Ruby and Owen. Shaun had his claws out, and he suddenly sniffed the air. He looked at Blake with surprise in his eyes, before the bell went off to start. Shaun opened with a charge on all fours at Blake who waited until just the right moment to strike, she attacked what seemed to be his unprotected right flank.

Her attack was interrupted by the faunas quick reaction time, he moved just slightly to the left and the blade missed completely. She had no time to ponder this as Shaun pressed the offensive. His claws moved quiker than her eyes could track, her aura taking many hits. She managed to jump away, her aura in the yellow.

She was trying to come up with a stratigy when suddenly Shaun attacked again, this time locking weapons. The pair stood looking at each other, Blake was prepared for anything, except for what happened next. Shaun latched his teeth onto her arm and clamped down hard, not a killing blow but enough to put her aura into the red zone.

Blake was flabbergasted, this man had just beaten her in under a minute. She was comptemplating when she felt a hand on her shoulder. Blake looked up to see Shaun offering her a smile. As she walked away, Shaun whispered something. It was to low to be heard by a normal human, but Blake wasn't a normal human.

"Meow." Shaun said as he walked back to his seat.

"The next fight will be between Richard Necro and Yang Xiao Long." Goodwitch called out.

The new pair approached the arena, Richard firing a grin at his opponent. As they reached the arena he called out, "Hey, you what's your secret?"

Yang looked confused until Richard yelled out, "Your hair! You condition or is it just like that naturally?"

Yang smiled back, "Its natural, and don't think that flattery will get you anywhere with me."

"Hey, its not flattery," Richard smiled, "It's just that I have never seen hair that is that fine naturally, except on me."

He said this as he stroked his mustache. The buzzer went off and the match began.

"So, do you wash and condition?" Richard yelled as he ran in with his twin blade.

"Yes, but that's mainly just to keep it nice and fresh for whoever touches it." Yang yelled as she blocked a strike from the monk.

"Yeah, I get ya," Richard yelled as he did a impressive flip before landing a strike on the blond brawler.

"So what's your hair story?" Yang asked as she landed a strike on the elusive monk.

"Well the mustache is the carful planning of years." Richard yelled as he struck again.

"I meant why are you shaved…" Yang didn't finish as Richard accidently sliced off part of her hair.

Richard was about to speak when he heard the primal scream of rage behind him. He turned to see the hair that was still falling.

"Oh crap" He muttered as Yang rushed forward with anger in her heart. She was much stronger now, and it was all that Richard had to not get squashed.

"Well, time for a change of pace." The monk said as he took his twin blade apart to form two schimitars. He rushed forward and pressed the offensive as hard as he could. He countered every attack and landed one of his own. Soon Yangs aura was down.

"Well that wasn't to hard," Richard said before hearing a noise behind him, "Crap"

Yang shot him in the back, and he fell over.

"Is it still to late to say sorry?" He asked before he was dragged off stage by Yang, who threw him at the crowd.

"Oh, he is going to feel that in the morning." Ben said as he looked to Rick, who had fallen asleep.

"Huh," Ben said as he heard the next match, "I'll wake him when its his turn."

The next matches flew by quick, mostly with wins from the new teams. Soon only two were left: Weiss Schnee and Rick Grimmes.

Ben woke up Rick who was still asleep.

"Huh?" Rick asked as Ben shoved him into the arena.

"Your up!" Ben yelled as the arena bell sounded.

Rick turned to see that he was facing Weiss.

"Well, if it isn't the stuck up little priss.' He taunted to everyone in the crowds horror, they had seen what Weiss could do and thought that Rick was going to die.

Weiss gave no indication that she heard, her focus was perfect, her poise perfect, and her stance was perfect. She let loose a barrage of energy blast, which Rick dodged.

"Come on, your going to have to do better than that my dear." He taunted as he drew his two swords.

Weiss still gave no indication of hearing as she readied her weapon, she charged her glyphs and sprang after Rick. He focused on the princess and once again dodged.

"OK, so that's how its gonna be." He whispered before charging. His swords came in quickly, but Weiss blocked all of the strikes. Her technique was flawless, Rick realized as he broke off. Rick smiled as Ben yelled, "Would you quit taunting her?"

Rick suddenly charged at his opponent, who was prepared to block anything. Rick suddenly threw his left sword as Weiss, who easily deflected it. She was ready to strike again when she felt a rush of air underneath her. She turned her head only to see that Rick was swinging his sword at her.

Her aura was in the red in a blink of a eye.
