Hadrian Goodwitch's POV:
"What took you guys so long?" Tommy asked impatiently when he noticed us.
"Sorry about that. Theodore had a Grimm to kill in his usual fashion during Port's class. Then there was the walk here." I reply flatly, while smiling.
"Who's this guy?" Ruby spoke up, feeling out of the loop once again an becoming a little annoyed about it.
"Everyone, this is Tommy Hikari. He's another friend of mine who will also be joining my team." Tommy gave a chilled smile and sat next to me and Theodore with teams RWBY and JNPR on either side like before. However, I still leaves me with the dilemma
of figuring out who my 4th teammate should be. Maybe I'll ask Uncle Ozpin about that later. The rest of the students begin trickling in while I'm having these thoughts, with the last student taking his seat as the bell rang.
"Now that we're all here, let's begin. In this class, you'll be focusing on your core traits. Weapons, Aura, Coordination, and Semblance. Everything that deals with combat or self-defense. If Mr. Auditor and Beacon's other new student, Mr. Tommy Hikari
can please come down here for the first demo?" They both nodded and jumped to their feet, walking to the stage. "Destroy all of the drones as efficiently as possible. Do not hold back. Begin!" Glynda said, before walking off the stage.
About 30 drones came out with swords and guns ready. "Let's fight! Ha ha!" Tommy shouted as he charged at the drones, punching them with his slightly bulky metal forearms that can turn into arm cannons, hardwired into his body that runs off his energy.
I helped Tommy make them after he lost his natural ones when the White Fang attacked his home and killed his parents. He always keeps his hand mode active at all times, even during this fight. He mainly used his short distance teleporting semblance
for this fight. After a long battle, both Tommy and Theodore stood back to back, panting a little, surrounded by piles of scrap metal.
"Excellent fighting, you two! Unfortunately, we're out of time today! Class dismissed!" Somewhat desperate not to be late to a single class today, me and my 2 teammates run to Survival 101 with our new friends in tow. Fortunately, we get to the class
when the bell rings 5 minutes later. We take our seats as the Professor comes in.
"Welcome to Survival 101! Over the course of the semester, you will be tested on how you handle different scenarios, but for today's lesson, I want to see what you can do. Now, if we could have 4 volunteers we can begin."
Pyrrha and Cardin stood up, looking ready for battle. I walked to the front of the stage as well, but my optimism dropped considerably when I noticed Yang coming down, too. We all get in a square shape, facing each other.
"Remember, hit as hard as possible. You may begin!" He shouted, almost in glee. We charge at each other, weapons ready. I got out my energy sword I used at the Initiation, and charged at Cardin. Fortunately, Pyrrha wanted the jerk eliminated quickly as
well since she blasts the bully with Piló. He was thrown back into the wall, knocking him out of the match for being out of bounds. Me and Yang clash for a few minutes, neither gaining the advantage. However, that changed when Pyrrha got tired of
waiting and chose to blast me. The unexpected attack hit my side, and Yang took advantage of my temporary pause, punching me hard in the stomach. I dug my sword into the arena to break my flight, and quickly regained my balance.
"Oh, you want to fight? Well, you got it. Prepare to get zapped." I held out my sword, which began crackling with electricity generated from my semblance. I charged at Pyrrha for the dirty attack, and after barely missing her due to the use of her own
semblance, was blasted back by a bolt of lightning.
"Wow, wish I had popcorn. When he brings his semblance on, things literally get fried." I heard Tommy comment from the stands. I charged at a surprised Yang and threw my hand and sword out at her. Electricity sparked around me and it rushed to her. However,
she is surprisingly tough. She charged at me and we end up in a deadlock again. This time, our semblances are fighting as well. Fire and electricity mingled in the air, making it burn a little. In a last effort, I used Yang's momentum against her,
which resulted in her crashing into Pyrrha. The two went down, and since they didn't get up after the 5 second timer went off, I won the match.
"That was excellent fighting everyone! So rarely have I seen first years fight like that. I hope to see skill like what we saw in the future. Class dismissed!" The bell rang, proving the teacher's point.
I helped Yang and Pyrrha up, telling them, "You both fought well. That was awesome!" They took the compliments, now seeing me as a new worthy opponent to face. At least, Pyrrha took it. Yang nods, smiling a little then frowns in frustration.
I get the feeling she's a really sore loser.
Afterwards, we all get cleaned up, and go back to our dorms after a long and rather eventful day.
Hopefully, these good days will keep on coming.
