It was a pleasant day; the weather was nice, and the school was enjoying its last day of the break after the first semester. Even the teachers were having a relaxing time while they could for it would all be over too soon and then it would be back to work. This was one of the times when Andrew found himself as one of the crowd rather than against it as he hated the paperwork his job required, he did however enjoy teaching his classes. He was walking with Glynda and catching up on recent events.

"I still think that she needed to at least have some luxuries taken away from her for a week. She didn't understand the severity of the situation that she not only put herself in but that of her class mates as well." Andrew smiled at Glynda's outburst and replied

"It wouldn't have done anything. You know her as well as I do now so you must see that she wouldn't have been fazed by that and then be more inclined to do it again to prove a point."

"She needs to grow up."

"Her whole team could do with that, but I do think they have matured somewhat since term began."

"Let's hope the second semester does something more to that effect. We are training hunters so behaviour like that cannot be tolerated." He then thought about the chat he had with Blake the night of the incident. She was still a bit detached from the world around her so he knew that she would probably do something like that again given the chance. All he could do was hope that she took on what he said and next time clued him into any criminal activities that she "found out" about. He wished she would tell him more about what happened that night so that he could understand why she did what she did. Unfortunately for Andrew she was young, self-reliant, and self-righteous. These could be good qualities for a hunter but for a hunter in training they only served in making her distracted and convinced that she was the only person capable of achieving this goal.

"They will, you can trust me on that. From what I've seen of them so far they are beginning to understand what is expected of them."

"Are you actually giving them some praise?" The way how Glynda said that made it clear she was winding him up after his statements at the years start. Andrew still took the bait.

"All I said was they were not emotionally invested in the role at the time, not that they couldn't get better with time."

"So, you still want to send Ruby back to Signal then?"

"No!" he then saw Glynda cover her mouth to hide a laugh and he then felt his face turn red. "She has proven that Ozpin saw something in her, I'm just intrigued as to what it is now." He blurted out trying to come up with something to say to Glynda's remark. All she did was continue laughing

"Ozpin was right, she is special. She got you to change your mind, something I always thought was impossible." Andrew groaned

"If she and her team keep up their current attitude and commitment to their training then I will gladly except that."

Before they could continue, they heard the sound of many students screaming. Looking in the direction of the noise they saw a flood of people running towards them.

"What is going on!" Glynda scream at them as they all ran passed

"Some first-year students are fighting in the cafeteria! It's getting out of control!" They heard one student shout back. Andrew took a deep breath as he and Glynda shared a quick glare.

Me and my big mouth. He thought already knowing who was causing the disruption, it was just sods law at this point so they both ran towards the cafeteria.

When they arrived, they could see and hear the destruction that was going on inside, to say that Andrew wasn't impressed was an understatement. Him and Glynda then marched to the door and almost slammed it off its hinges. As they walked into the room a mess of food and utensils came flying towards them which Glynda stopped with her semblance. As she did that, a column that had been knocked off balance began to fall on top of them so Andrew raised his cybernetic arm and caught it. The impact from the heavy objects fall did make him crush the floor beneath him but Glynda was already repairing the room and putting everything back the way it should have been.

"Children please, do not play with your food" she said with a stern look once everything was fixed. Andrew was containing himself as he felt a furry try to overtake him, he had just finished saying that these teams were improving and gaining his respect. Suddenly Yang came crashing through the ceiling and when she was back on her feet the two teams started to laugh uncontrollably over the incident. Not a moment had passed and they had made him look like a fool, before he could speak however Ozpin appeared behind them, placing a hand on each of their shoulders and said.

"Let it go." They both sighed

"They're supposed to be the defenders of the world." Said Glynda

"And they will be but right now they're still children. So why not let them play the part after all, it isn't a role they'll have forever." Ozpin replied as he walked away.

"That might be true after today because I'm about ready to kill them now." Andrew added

"Calm down Andrew, it was only a food fight." The way how Ozpin said it almost made Andrew explode but he managed to contain himself. Turning around to watch Ozpin leaving he saw standing behind him Sun and another boy covered in a purple mush.

"I hate to ask but did you have anything to do with this?" He asked the pair and Sun gave him an innocent face

"Me! Why would you think that?!"

"Hmmm maybe because lately every time there's is some kind of disturbance you're there."

"Okay at the docks yeah I'll admit that I was part of it but we only just got here. Trust me, if I had taken part then this building would be rubble by now." He sounded proud and disheartened at the same time like he wished he had been involved.

"Sun! Don't say things like that to Vale staff!" his friend said making Andrew shift his attention his way.

"And you are?"

"Oh, I'm Neptune Vasilias. Visiting student from Haven." He stood to attention and Sun scoffed

"You can be such a suck up"

"Hay, I respect the teachers." Andrew made a half smile

"What happened to you? Actually, I don't want to know just go and clean yourself up, can't have you representing your school looking like that." Neptune looked down at himself and sighed

"Yes sir."

"Mr Wukong, always a pleasure." He said while he gave Sun a stern look which made him laugh nervously again as Andrew left them to it. He was calming down now so he decided to speak to the two teams and walked off in a determined march. When he was within range, he shouted

"Hope you all had your fun. If you've got this much energy, then my classes aren't pushing you nearly as hard as they should be."

"Sorry teach, guess things got a little out of hand." Yang didn't look sorry at all, but he took what he could get from her.

"I can assure you sir it will not happen again." Pyrrha did sound apologetic and he could trust that what she said would be honoured.

"Good. Can't have you destroying the cafeteria every week. Glynda would get really cross then."

"It only got a tiny bit out of hand." Nora said and Andrew looked up at the hole in the ceiling that Yang had created upon her re-entry.

"If that's the case warn me when you're going to go completely out of hand. I'll evacuate the school and then sell tickets to the carnage."

"Sounds great teach! We can arrange that now if you want and you can give me a cut of the profits." Yang said as she rubbed her fingers and thumb together on her right hand.

"I don't think he was serious Yang" Weiss added in a matter of fact tone

"Come on Weiss lighten up, I was only joking." Andrew laughed and all the students in front of him paused. When he stopped, he added

"You're not making my life dull around here that's for sure." The students made a few glances at each other and laughed

"So I take it that we're cool professor?" asked Jaune.

Andrew changed his face and tone instantly.

"Not by a long shot Mr Arc." That statement caused them all to freeze.

"What?" Jaune asked tensely. Andrew took a breath

"You caused property damage, wasted food and could have harmed someone who isn't apparently indestructible as you all are." Nora then spoke up.

"Well the buildings fixed now and no one got hurt. The food well, yeah can't argue about that." With a little giggle.

"That I can overlook but it is the mess you've all created and still have all over your persons I can't stand." They all took a closer look at themselves and Blake said

"Seriously professor? Our clothes are the problem?" Andrew's eye went red.

"You had better go and get yourselves cleaned up, you're all covered in crap and I will not have any of you disgracing this school's reputation with your unacceptable appearance. You'd better get your uniforms cleaned thoroughly because if I find one spot of this food battle on them then I'll make you strip where you stand, and I'll force you to clean them again." They all now looked concerned

"You're joking again right sir?" Ruby said timidly so Andrew directed his full attention towards her

"No Miss Rose. That was a threat and one I will make good on."

"Ha! You just want to get a look at our bodies don't you teach! Pervert!" Yang was still joking but Andrew certainly wasn't.

"I can assure you that I have no interest in any of your bodies. I do however know that the embarrassment that you will endure will far exceed my own so if I was you, I would make sure that there was no evidence what's so ever of this incident. Do we understand each other?" it was followed by an unenthusiastic "Yes sir" from the group as from their previous experience with him they knew he would follow through on his threat.

"Well…. don't just stand there get OUT OF HERE AND CLEAN YOURSELVES UP!" he shouted which echoed throughout the hall, and he had never seen any of them move so quickly in his life. As they left the cafeteria, he noticed Sun and Neptune run out behind them and Andrew couldn't help but laugh again. This time he was almost howling with laughter.

"Are they still the students you are so proud of?" Glynda asked. Andrew still laughing walked over to her

"I would say yes but it was difficult to identify them underneath all that food so I can't be sure." Glynda scoffed

"You either like them or hate them. You can't have it both ways."

"I can. I like them when they are my students and hate them when they are your students." The glare she gave him turned what was left of his face white then she smiled

"It's nice to see the old Andrew again, it's been years since you were yourself." She then left the building with a startled Andrew still inside. He pondered what she said while scratching his stubble which was longer than it should have been.

"Myself? I didn't even know myself still existed." He was about to laugh but then a piece of the roof fell and hit him straight on the head. It took all his strength not to scream and shout out every profanity he could think of. After nearly ten minutes of rubbing his head he finally said

"Oh they're all going to get it next class, I can promise them that." The evil half smile he had on his face revealed he was already thinking up a variety of different and excruciating ways to get pay back on them as he then left the cafeteria.
