_[ STORY ]_
Ruby, Blake, Pyrrha, and Nora stood with several other students in the combat gym, waiting for Professor Goodwitch to arrive.
"It's never good when a teacher is late," Pyrrha said, twirling her spear.
"Oooo, I hope she gets here soon," Ruby bubbled, "she was going to take us to the Emerald Forest for some hands-on training this afternoon."
"I know I'm so excited," Nora beamed.
"Yang was SO jealous, when you told her," Blake added from her spot on the floor.
The chatter of the gathered students died as the class doors were thrown open and in walked not Glynda Goodwitch but the language arts teacher.
"Mr. Ultrices, what are you doing here?" someone asked.
The group as a whole watched the man coming closer, he was void of his usual attire and carrying weapons, "are you...teaching the class today?" another student asked.
"Of course, Goodwitch is indisposed for the time being so I...wolunteered to fill in," Sar said, bringing up a clipboard.
"Is it me or are his eyes glowing?" Blake whispered to the other girls.
"I think your right," Nora agreed.
"He's warning a jumpsuit," Ruby muttered stifling a giggle.
"Maybe it's his semblance," Pyrrha posed to Blake, "could be his combat gear?"
"Do you lady's have something you vould like to share vith the class?" Sat questioned looking at the four girls.
They jumped a bit at the sudden voice, "um, well sir we thought it was weird that you don't have your glasses…" Ruby said
"Right," Sar said, turning back to the class, "alright listen one and all, for those of you vho don't know me I am Mr. Ultrices. Ve vill be heading out into Emerald Forest to do some hands-on training, vhat I expect for you to do is keep each other safe, but this vill be an individual test. The goal: to fight a Grimm on your own.
A bubble of voices rose up at that, "we have teams why do we need to know how to fight a Grimm on our own?" someone asked those around the student groaned and one smacked him across the back of the head.
"Young one," Sar said tucking the chipboard under his arm, "being able to defend against a Grimm by yourself is important. Say a teammate is injured, or you are separated or any number of things that leave you at the mercy of a Grimm; to hold your own against such a beast is to allow for you and/or others the chance to survive."
The student shuffled their feet, "that...um...that makes sense," he said.
"Alright then, everyone to the airfield," Sar yelled, waving the group of almost thirty students to follow him.
Ruby practically ran after Sar skipping as she went, Nora hot on her heels, "those two enjoy fighting," Pyrrha said.
"Ruby likes showing off Crescent Rose," Blake said.
The sun was high above the forest as the group sat in the shade drinking and munching on there lunch, Sar studied them most had done quite well, he made a note of the ones who still needed work. A rustle behind him was the first indicator something was there; the next was the students jumping up.
"Mr. Ultrices, LOOK OUT!"
Sar already dropped his clipboard before the first voice reached him, withdrawing his tonfa he switched it to his left hand in time to block the swipe of the Ursa Grimm. Spinning his grip, he brought the blade arcing through the Ursa's paw making it roar allowing for Sar to twist away from the Grimm; he dropped low as he switched the tonfa back to his right hand and drew his pistol with his left.
He popped off some rounds before propelling himself towards the beast; the rounds had pushed the Grimm off balance making it easier for Sar to get in close and slice at the chest with his tonfa before lodging the muzzle of his gun in the wound and firing again. Flames erupted from the wonder as Sar jumped back.
The Grimm fell disintegrating as it did, Sar Kept his gun trained on the creature as it vanished once completely gone he sheathed his weapons, and retrieved his clipboard.
"Lunch break is over, back to vork everyone," he said.
