'Hello'=Thinking
(A/N: Hey guys! I'm here with the next chapter! Anyway, this is gonna be a sort of shorter filler chapter before I move on to Jaunedice next. Although here is something I need you guys to do. I need you guys to vote for who Sora will fight next chapter! After Jaune and Cardin's fight I will have Sora fight and show his semblance! So please say who you want to see Sora fight in the review (Except Jaune and Cardin obviously) Anyway, let's get to it!)
"Huh, this coffee is pretty good." Sora muttered as he looked at his travel mug. "I should drink form Ozpin's stash more often."
Ozpin's Office
"Somebody took some of my coffee..." Ozpin muttered with narrowed eyes. "... I bet it was Oobleck."
With the culprit identified Ozpin went to interro- er- question, his old friend.
Sora's Class
"Why do I feel like I sentenced an innocent man to feel incredible pain?" Sora muttered as he saw the students walk into the class.
As soon as the students gathered in the arena, Sora put his coffee mug down and addressed them "Alright class, time for your first lesson!"
"Um… Mr. Hikari?" Ruby asked as she raised her hand, giggling a bit inside when she saw the discomfort on Sora's face when she addressed him by his , 'teacher name'.
'Why did you have to tell them to call me that Miss Goodwitch?' Sora thought as he shook his head and looked at Ruby. "Yes Miss Rose?"
"What's up with all the pillows?" Ruby asked as the other students looked at the pillows assembled in a circle formation.
"Ah! Good question, you see these pillows are for you to sit on while we do the lesson. So... Take a seat everyone!" Sora said as he motioned to the students to take a seat.
Once he said that Ruby immediately speed towards the pillows and collected eight of the biggest and comfiest for her team and team JNPR. When the other students regained their bearings they followed her lead to avoid getting the worst pillows.
Once everyone was seated on a pillow, with teams RWBY and JNPR quietly laughing at the discomfort Cardin felt from being stuck with a smaller pillow, Sora walked to the center of the circle and began the lesson. "All right everyone, the first lesson is going to be the easiest of the lessons, but still a moderately difficult task." Sora said as he looked at the seated students. "Today you are going to work on manifesting your auras and sustaining them, like so." Sora said as he was enveloped in a midnight-blue aura.
"So what are the pillows for then sir?" Velvet asked as Sora cut off his aura.
"They're to help you relax while you pull your aura out. Allow me to explain in a greater detail." Sora said as he began to pace. "Usually when your aura manifests it is because you are using your semblance or being healed. But what you are trying to do is, reach in, grab it, and pull it out, for lack of better terms.
"So… if normally it's like a flowing river, then we're basically gathering the water from it?" Jaune asked as Sora gave an impressed look.
"Yup, that's an accurate way to think about." Sora said as he stopped pacing. "Once all of you are able to manifest your auras and sustain for one minute we will move on to the real lessons of flowmotion, when you first start you usually have to 'pull out' your aura in order to use it, but once you start getting into the flow of things…" Yang and a few other students chuckled at his pun. "… Your aura will manifest itself with just a thought. So, are all of you ready to begin?"
Receiving nods and words of confirmation Sora smiled and said "Great! Now remember, close your eyes, breath, and try to find the 'light', and don't be afraid to ask me for help and conversations are allowed as long as you don't disrupt the others."
As the students began to search for their auras Yang turned to her teammates and said "So, what do you guys think so far?"
"He's doing quite well; he managed to hide his nervousness." Blake said as she began to adjust herself.
"Are you serious? He was nervous?" Ruby asked as Weiss turned to her.
"He was, in fact he almost fooled me but you could see it in his eyes and hands." Weiss said as she closed her eyes. "Now don't interrupt me, I want to get this done so we can move on to the real lessons."
"Hey Blake, is it just me or can you hear a guy screaming for his life?" Yang asked as she swore she saw a green blur zoom by the arena.
"I do... do you also hear the scream of rage?" Blake asked.
Yang nodded and said "Yeah but... do we really have time?"
"Your probably right. Maybe its just some guys being dorks." Blake said as Yang nodded as they closed their eyes and began to search for their auras.
Thirty minutes later Jaune raised his hand and asked "Hey, Mr. Hikari? Is it normal that I'm seeing a bright light in total darkness?"
Chuckling, Sora said "Don't worry Jaune! That's your aura!"
"Eh?! Are you sure?" Jaune asked.
"Are you questioning the teacher?" Sora said with a stern look on his face.
"I- I uh…" Jaune started but stopped when he saw the smile on Sora's face. "Again?"
"Sorry, couldn't help it. But on to your question, what you described is what I saw when I started my own flowmotion training. So now that you found it here comes the hard part, grabbing it and pulling it out." Sora said as Jaune gained a look of understanding. Turning around, Sora noticed that they had gained the attention of several students. "Well? Do you want to fall behind?"
At this statement the students snapped out of it and returned to trying to find their auras. "Good job Jaune." Sora said as he went to help another student.
"You see? We told you it would be fine Jaune." Pyrrha said as she gave Jaune a smile.
"Thanks…" He muttered.
"So, can you help me find my aura?" She asked as Jaune gained a smile.
"Yeah, sure!" He said.
After another thirty minutes most of the class managed to find their auras, but none had succeeded in managing to pull it out. "All right class that's enough for today." Sora said as the students opened their eyes. "I have to say I'm very impressed, and to those who haven't found it yet don't worry, from this progress I can tell that you should find it before the end of the week. You guys can spend the last five minutes talking."
Smiling at his encouragement the students grouped up in their circle of friends. "That was pretty good Jaune, being the first to find your aura!" Ruby said to the leader of JNPR.
"Thanks." Jaune said as he looked at the others. "Hey guys? What did trying to grab your aura feel like?"
"It felt like trying to hold water with an open palm." Ren said as he looked at his own hand.
"Yeah, I could always feel it but it never wanted to come out no matter how hard I pulled!" Nora said as she made pulling motions with her hands.
"Well he did say this was the hard part." Yang said as she placed a hand on her chin. "Though I wonder… how long did it take Sora?"
"Two weeks." Sora said as the others turned to face him. "That's how long it took me."
"Really? That long?" Weiss asked, surprised that it took Sora that long despite his expertise in flowmotion.
"Wellll…. It did take me a while because I kept falling asleep." Sora said with a shrug of his shoulders.
"A- asleep?!" Ruby asked mouth agape.
"You got to be kidding me…" Weiss muttered.
Blake was the one to break them out of their stupor by, surprisingly, chuckling "Sora you hopeless sleepy head…"
Her comment caused the others to shake their heads and laugh, even Weiss who gained a small smile.
"Yeah, you could say that." Sora said with a smile before he looked at his scroll. "All right everyone, class is over."
At the mention of that, most of the students got up and left to change out of their combat gear and into their school uniforms. "Are you coming Sora?" Ruby asked when she noticed that Sora was looking at a window.
"…Uh, yeah! Let's go!" Sora said as he and the others left the arena.
'Hmph.' The figure thought when it saw the last group leave the arena through its scope. 'Well, well, well kiddo, hanging out with the other kiddies?' Dismissing its weapon the figure leaned back on the tree as it noticed something. 'Ohhh…. I see. Well, looks like things are gonna get more interesting.' It thought before it warped away, leaving no trace of its presence.
(A/N: And that's a wrap! Remember guys! Vote for whom you want to see Sora fight in the next chapter, and I promise you guys that the next chapter will be longer. Bye!)
Sneak Peak
"Come on Sora! I thought you were stronger than that!" His opponent said.
"Hehe, don't worry… I'm just getting started." Sora said as he raised his sword into the air. "Give me strength!"
