Ruby and Yang were hanging out near the entrance to JNPR's room waiting for the blond knight to show up, it had been three days and as far as the sisters could tell Jaune entered the room exceptionally late and left early enough to make even the earliest of birds cringe. Weiss had returned from the hospital the day before but she had been jumpy. The sisters were concerned they heard the heiress cry herself to sleep last night, she whimpered Jaune's name throughout the night and they wanted to know why.

"Stay here Ruby, I'm going to go look around."


An airship was flying high above the crashing waves towards Vytal. Vacuo's contestants for the tournament thirty students were generally hanging around working on weapons or sparring against each other in the bottom hold though ne six-man team was lounging around a table the team was made up of two three man squads as was Tori's way of splitting up its students. At the head of the table an orange haired youth was leaning against the back of his chair what looked like a huge bandage wrapped cleaver was slung over the back of his chair as he seemed to be napping a manga open across his face next to him the two members of his team were both hard at work one was a black haired rabbit faunus whose white ears dropped slightly as she went over some information with the other squad happy that Sun was behaving himself as the other member of the lead squad a black haired man with glasses was typing away on a scroll coordinating something with someone in Vale. The black haired girl kept shooting glares at the sleeping leader of the team she seemed to be getting more and more agitated with each snuffle and snort coming from him. No one was suppressed when she suddenly leapt from her chair in a spinning high kick, similarly no one was surprised even the Faunus when her attack never made contact. The rabbit eared girl found herself blushing in her leaders lap his chin resting in between her ears.

"Mah, Usagi-chan what gives, we still have a few days before we're supposed to reach Vytal and two weeks before the tournament." The man's voice was lazy and slow the manga on the table revealed his angled features and deep crimson eyes. They were as usual mostly closed and his smile was border line creepy while still seeming warm at the same time. Sun led his squad towards the door the second his fellow Faunus attacked he really didn't want to see the two of them cuddling or aura forbid making out. As Sun reached for the door a series of thunderous booms filled the air and their airship rocked violently sending almost everyone sprawling, the orange haired leader scooped up the girl in his lap jumping as the man with glasses still typing on his scroll simply leaned his chair back and forth keeping it stable on the ground. As the Orange haired man landed setting down the blushing girl his smile deepened into a feral grin the tiger tail behind him swaying lightly, the man turned his eyes flashing to a deep gold as he looked out a porthole as a harpoon sailed into the side of the ship the point breaking through the hull and springing open embedding itself in the wall.

"Look alive BEASTS, we have some prey afoot." The man with glasses stood at the leaders words his wolf like ears perking up as his black tail slowly swished in a similar motion as the leader. Sun's two cronies a pair of fox brothers normally known as the Trickster Twins also smiled as they each pulled out a rod that expanded into a glaive one had a clack one with a white blade the brother's mirroring it. Sun pulled out his Gun-gun flipping it into staff mode as he looked to the leader seeing the nod he lead the twins to go hunting the upper levels.

As the Monkey and two foxes left the room the tiger tailed man walked over to his fallen weapon smiling he pulled at the wrappings revealing a blue handled nodachi, a silver and black bow and a smaller white katana with a white ribbon. Tossing the bow to the man in glasses and the katana to the rabbit he drew his own blade holding the, sheath in his offhand like a second blade.

"Oi, Cheng." The tiger looked over at the bunny who had drawn her own blade the sheath of her blade collapsing into a handgun. He had to admit he was a lucky man with a woman like that for his girlfriend. Her eyes a deep violet softened slightly as she looked at him. "Be careful."

"Stay close to me Usagi-chan," Cheng's eyes softened in response with out looking over he started to talk to the third member of their trio. "Hey Glasses think you'll be ok? There won't be enough room for you to…" the Sound of a crash and then a twang caused the tiger to look over at the wolf sniper. He had broken a window and was lining up shots with his bow an arrow forming out of his aura with a rotating dust wheel near the bridge that gave the arrows an effect by the bright yellow glow Cheng would have to guess that they were electric, the booming of thuder and the flash of when the arrow hit someone was a dead givw away also. Smiling a soft glow in his eyes Cheng stood twirling his blades in his hands waiting for someone to get across his black Aura flickering around him like a flame.


Jaune was practicing his aura control as he had been doing the past few days, If he wasn't in class or studying he was working on control that and more about this new Crocea Mors he liked the weight more but he had to completely change his fighting style from a mostly defensive to a much more balanced fighting style and for that he needed help, mainly from Ren and Pyrrah. Collapsing into the now empty field he crossed his arms behind his head his aura rolling off of him, it was weird recently it was almost like he had a sonar built in with his aura, was that what blind hunters and huntresses used instead of sight, it was so… descriptive, he closed his eyes he could tell where everything was his aura rolled off of him in rings reflecting and moving up and down surrounding objects the white aura tinting as it moved green for trees and the grass, insects were little glowing lights of a varity of colors, and then there were people, so many colors his aura running over theirs showing him the depths of who they were most people were a solid color but oddly none of his friends were, Ren appeared black at first until he moved and a light pink could be seen underneath like the black was protecting the pink, Nora was pink and white the colors weaving and missing with no pattern at all, funny was that the two pinks were almost Identical in color. Pyrrah was a mix of layers of red and bronze it was like watching a flame, to counter that there was Yang who was a flame usually it was yellow and red flickering around her but he could probabably tell when she exploded his money was on her aura exploding into a fireball in this form of vision. Ruby was interesting Red, almost completely with silver running around her in intricate patterns, he hadn't seen Wiess, Velvet or Blake like this yet… a black figure was slowly approaching him, what was odd were the colors, three of them black white and gold, the same kind of gold as most of the cats that he'd seen like this, he spent most of yesterday after class pretending to be a blind man in Vale. Deciding to feign sleep he watched her come closer, he smelled… Blake? At least it was her shampoo. He decided to keep lax as she seemed to look around her aura moving faster as she kneeled next to him, it was definently Blake she ha always given him that feeling of being watched, not in a bad way just that someone was observing him, keeping track of him.

Blake was chewing her lip as she lifted Jaune slowly and put his head in her lap and drew out a book finding her spot she slowly stroked his head as she let herself fall into her reading. A soft purr escaped her lips without her realizing it.

"So I guess the purr means happiness right?" Blake froze her eyes on the word she had been reading aptly and ironicly, 'caught.' Her eyes sowly moved from her book to the still closed eyes of Jaune in her lap. She waited a moment before looking around again, no one was around.

"Jaune?" One blue eye opened slightly and he grinned up at her. She was about to scramble away when he touched her arm. She froze and looked down again.

"What are you doing?" He had both eyes open and he had flipped over he was on one knee his hand on her shoulder keeping her in place.

"I'm about to go run to my room and hope that you forget all about this." She was about to move again when Jaune tackled her to the field pinning her arms with his hands and using his knees on her legs.

"Oh no you don't, you were happy and I was happy." Blake looked up confused. "I was curious how I had gotten black hair in my hoodie now I know, if I let you up will you not run away… please?"

Blake looked absoultly terrified, this was not how it was supposed to work, she was just going to be happy with her personal time with him taking a nap until she got over this silly infatuation…but… could it be more? Blake smiled a little her face losing the frightened look and nodded her head. With a sigh Jaune started to get off of her when his senses were overloaded by a burst of aura. And then he was flying.
