"Welcome back to class" said Glynda "if you remember from last class Mr. Arc and Mr. Winchester demonstrated a standard one on one battle. Today I will explain a roulette style battle to you. This requires two teams of four; teams RWBY and CBLT will be demonstrating this class". "I call dibs on wiping the floor with Ms. Schnee over there" said Bruna. "Now the two teams may go to the locker room to get out of their uniforms and get their weapons and armor".
"Hey Cobalt?" asked Bruna "can I bring some of the C4 dad got me"? "Yes you can" said Cobalt "but not too much. We don't want to level the classroom". Cobalt turned to see Lenna standing in front of her open locker, staring at the gift she got the other day. "You don't have to Lenna" Tuscan put his hand on Lenna's soldier "I don't think Cobalt will care". "No" said Lenna "I am going to have to use it eventually; might as well start now". She pulled the shotgun from the locker and she put it into a little leather sheathe she made for it. "Hey Tuscan" said Cobalt "what's with that green dust"? "Its dad's new formula" he replied "might as well test it today in closed combat". "We don't even know what it does" said Bruna "is it really safe to test it now"? "Well we might as well find out now" Tuscan inserted the dust canisters into the chambers in his weapon. "Hang on guys" said Cobalt "I'll be right back". Cobalt turned a corner and walked towards team RWBY; suiting up at their lockers. "Hey guys" said Cobalt "I just wanted to say good luck". "Thanks" said Yang "you to". "I don't need luck" said Weiss "I'll show you that liars never win". "Still stubborn" said Cobalt "one of these days you will learn the truth of what your family has done". "Come one guys" Ruby broke between them "can we please get along"? "Yeah guys" said Yang "save it for the ring". "This will be interesting to watch" said Blake "Conway versus Schnee; that hasn't occurred since The Siege of Conway back during the Faunus War". "There is no proof that we were there" Weiss snapped back "it is simply more lies that your ignorant family has spread". "That is no lie!" said Cobalt "the Schnees were there". "He is right" said Blake "there is actually a lot of evidence that it was the Schnees who attacked Conway". "Oh so your siding with them now?" said Weiss. "I am just saying that the Schnees did attack Conway during the war" Blake replied "under the disguise that it was the coalition attacking". "Guys can we settle this later?" said Ruby "we need to get back to class before we are written up".
"Now we can begin" said Glynda "a roulette style battle requires two teams of four. One member of each team is chosen at random to fight; at that point it follows the same rules as a one on one match in which your opponent's aura must be put in the red. The first to score the best out of three battles wins, any questions"? Bruna raised her hand "why do we need a fourth person if it's best out of three"? "In the event of a tie" she replied "the fourth members are to fight as a tie breaker. Now let's begin". The screen above the ring took the pictures of each team and their team members and made two decks of cards; it than shuffled those decks. "Now let's see our first match" said Glynda. The computer drew from the two top cards to get the first match. "From team RWBY we have" she called out "Ruby Rose". Ruby stepped into the ring, drawing Crescent Rose when she reached her starting square. "From team CBLT" she said "we have Bruna Conway". Bruna walked to her square and Tick and Tock unfolded. "Ready?" Glynda called out "begin"! Ruby used the recoil from her weapon to charge Bruna. Bruna reacted and activated the dust, freezing all around her. "Well this is going to be one explosive finisher" she placed a stick of C4 under Ruby. "What are you doing?" a voice asked. "Wait what?" Bruna asked "who are you? Everyone should have been stopped"! "It's me, Ruby" Ruby had backed away from the C4. "What?" Bruna was shocked "how did you do that"? "Do what?" Ruby asked "whoa, why is everyone stopped"? "It's my dust" said Bruna "but why didn't you stop? Wait a minute; what's your semblance"? "It's just speed" she replied. "Okay then" said Bruna "let's get back to fighting". Time began moving again and Bruna turned on her skates and charged Ruby. Ruby used the recoil to rise into the air and dodged Bruna; she came back down and fired a volley at Bruna. Bruna serpentined towards Ruby dodging the rifle rounds. Bruna was only inches away when Ruby changed her weapon to something like a war scythe and used the recoil to uppercut Bruna into the air, she than took aim and nailed Bruna in the back with a sniper round. Bruna hit the ground and struggled to rise "not bad for a little girl" she said "you're a good fighter". "Thanks" said Ruby "I was taught by my uncle". "Idle chit-chat over" Bruna got back up "now it gets real". Bruna charged Ruby again, Ruby swiped across with her scythe but Bruna rolled under it; leaving a present behind. Ruby looked down to see a stick of C4 at her feet. Bruna hit the detonator and sent Ruby into the air. Bruna swiped Ruby over and over as she headed towards the ground. Ruby hit the ground and Bruna charged again; only to be hit by Crescent Rose and be put on the ground with a barrel in her face. "That's enough" said Glynda "Bruna's aura is in the red; the first victory goes to team RWBY". "That's my sister" Yang squeezed Ruby "I knew you could do it". "Good job Bruna" said Cobalt "you fought well". "Stop being so corny" said Bruna "you're going to make me vomit". "So much for Conways being the best on the battlefield" Weiss called across the ring. "Trash talk in practice match?" said Cobalt "only a Schnee would be so excited over an empty victory". "Enough" said Glynda "let's see the next match. From team RWBY we have; Yang Xiao Long". "Looks like I'm up" she took her space in the ring "who's the lucky sucker"? "From team CBLT we have" Glynda called out "Tuscan Conway". "Very well" said Tuscan; he took his place in the ring and drew Kaiten and slammed it head into the ground and placed his hands on the end of the handle. "Are you one of those "noble warrior" types?" asked Yang. "In your terms I may be" he said "I also find it funny how RWBY's burning dragon is going up against CBLT"s iron wall". "Oh careful big guy" she said "compliments can get you everywhere". "You also seem you flirt with your foes to keep them off balance and ruin their concentration" he said "but such tactics won't work on me". "Let the match begin" Glynda said. Tuscan turned his weapon into crossbow mode and fire a bolt infused with the new dust into the ground in front of Yang. When it hit the ground it simply glowed a faint green light. "That's it?" said Tuscan "why isn't it working"? "It's ok Tuscan" Yang activated her gauntlets "happens to a lot of guys". Yang unloaded several blasts at Tuscan; all exploding on contact with Tuscan. "Well I guess I win" said Yang, gesturing to the cloud of smoke around Tuscan's position. "Don't be so sure" Cobalt called out. The smoke cleared to reveal that Tuscan had surrounded himself with a barrier and was unscathed by the attack. "Nice move Yang" said Tuscan "now my turn". Tuscan loaded another bolt and fired an explosive round that Yang did dodge but it knocked her off balance. Tuscan than switched Kaiten into mace form and came down on Yang. Yang blocked it by putting her gauntlets in the way. "Not bad" said Yang "though I expected better". "Just look at your gauntlets" said Tuscan. Yang looked to see that her gauntlets had been frozen to the mace; due to an ice dust based strike. Tuscan than lifted his mace into the air and in turn Yang; and slammed her into the ground. Tuscan than swung to the right, breaking Yang off the mace and sending her flying across the ring. Yang got up and charged Tuscan, and they met in the center. Tuscan swung high and missed Yang; she came in low and unleashed a volley into him before sending him across the ring. "Had enough big guy?" Yang gloated. "Hardly" said Tuscan. Tuscan fired anther bolt that narrowly missed Yang as she charged him again. As she charged she ran by the green bolt lodged into the ground, the light turned red as she approached it. Before she could land a hit on Tuscan, the bolt detonated and Yang was than floating through the air. "Well" said Tuscan "so that's what it does". Tuscan switched to mace form and came above Yang and slammed her into the ground below. "That's enough" said Glynda "Yang's aura is in the red; Tuscan gets a victory for CBLT". "Good job Tuscan" said Cobalt. "Thanks Cobalt" he replied "it looks like it's some kind of gravity mine or something". "Yo, good fight!" Yang called over "maybe we can box sometime"? "Sounds fun" said Tuscan "you got a deal". "Now for the next fight" said Glynda "from RWBY we have; Blake Belladonna". Blake silently walked to her spot in the ring. "Well she's quiet" said Bruna. "I know" said Cobalt "but it's always the quiet ones". "From team CBLT" Glynda called out "we have Lenna Nera Conway". "Yay!" Lenna squealed "it's my turn". The instant the two girls made eye contact, Lenna stepped back a little "do I know you from somewhere"? Blake flinched slightly at the question "no I don't think so". "Let the match, begin" said Glynda. Blake charged immediately and drew Gambol Shroud. When she was a few feet away from Lenna she turned into a blur and suddenly appeared behind Lenna. Lenna drew her shotgun and put it in the way to block the cleaver. The weapons collided and then Blake blurred again and swung across from Lenna's right. Lenna bended backwards to avoid the attack and flipped backwards to gain distance. She took aim and fired at Blake; Blake dodged it and split Gambol Shroud into a machete and cleaver. In response Lenna drew the red machete from the shotgun. Blake came in from above and swiped downward; Lenna parried the attack and hit Blake in the stomach with a blast from the shot gun pistol. Blake quickly regained control and turned the machete into a chain scythe and wrapped around Lenna's legs. Lenna hit the ground and in a few seconds Blake was on top of her. In that instant Blake had her cleaver at Lenna's throat, but Lenna had aimed her pistol at Blake's head. "Enough" said Glynda "the match is over". "But who one?" asked Lenna as she untied herself from Blake's ribbon. "Both of you had a kill shot prepared and auras in the red" she replied there for it is a draw". "Come on" said Lenna "let me back at her, I will win this time". "Both of your auras have sustained too much damage to continue safely" she said "so now we move into the tie breaker between the two remaining teammates". "Should have seen this coming" said Bruna. "The next match will be between Weiss Schnee and Cobalt Conway" said Glynda. Weiss and Cobalt took their places on the opposite sides of the ring. "Well Weiss" said Cobalt "I wish you good luck". "I don't need your luck" she replied "I will defeat you on my own terms". "Let the match" Glynda called out "begin"! Weiss flew right at Cobalt; weapon extended and aimed right for Cobalt. Cobalt ran forward and slid underneath Weiss; tripping her in mid dash and sending her face into the ground. Cobalt drew his weapons and shot at Weiss. Weiss put up a glyph as a barrier and blocked the rounds. Cobalt came in close and broke through the glyph and swiped across at Weiss; spinning her around. He then kicked her in the back and sent her to the ground. Myrtenaster skidded out of her reach, leaving her unarmed. Weiss slowly rose to her feet and stared daggers at her opponent. "What?" she said "don't you Conways like easy prey"? Cobalt broke his gaze with Weiss and plucked Myrtenaster from the ground; he threw it at Weiss. Her weapon skidded to a halt at her feet. "We Conways fight with honor" he said "or do you still believe your father's lies"? "Quiet you!" Weiss flew at Cobalt again. At the last second she spun around him and swiped his foot. Cobalt turned to fire but found he could not move one of his legs, for it was frozen to the floor. "I'll show you who the liar is!" Weiss charged again for one last attack; her weapon glowing with yellow light. Cobalt tugged at his foot to try to get it moving. Cobalt's foot gave way; and he slammed is ice encased foot across Weiss's face. When Weiss recovered; she was face with Cobalt aiming right at her. "That's enough you two" Glynda broke in "Weiss's aura is in the red. Therefor team CBLT is the winner". "Yeah Cobalt!" Bruna cheered "that's a way to win"! Cobalt withdrew his weapon and held out his hand "good match". Weiss swatted his hand aside and pulled herself up. "Yeah" she said "good match". "Still stubborn ehh?" he replied "very well then. Someday soon you will know the truth, but for now; can we at least be friends"? "What are you saying Cobalt?" Bruna interrupted "you know very well what her family has done". "A father's sins do not have to pass to his children" he replied "what we think of people should be based on actions; not old hatreds". "Sure" Weiss replied "but only acquaintances". "I will settle for that" said Cobalt "as our families next generation; we need to keep open minds".
