Chapter 11
The arena was silent as a male figure stood in the centre with his eyes closed, his wolf ears twitching at the slightest of sounds, he wore a long, black-purple and red coat with "Born from the ashes" sewn across both shoulders underneath he also wore a zip-up hoodie underneath this coat, a black navy muscle-shirt with the kanji resurrected beneath that, and a pair of dark purple pants ,and to his right was also a male who had bright green long coat with three tails and a snake like pattern on the right side of the jacket, underneath the coat he wore a bullet proof vest with ammo clips running down his torso, he also wore Cargo pants with knife holsters he also wore converse sneakers like the male beside him. Their objective: Go on a round of nonstop holographic Grimm.
"Alright Just like we practiced… Hey Glynda can you start the round!?" yelled the first teen as he looked up to show pure golden eyes that focused on a middle aged woman who wore white long-sleeved suit that exposes part of her chest, and puffy sleeves that tighten near the wrist before spreading back out near her hands. Her lower body has a black business skirt with buttons running in a vertical line up the front of it and lighter black-brown stockings she also wore black boots with brown heels, and a tattered cape that was purple inside and black on the outside, decorated by a row of diamond-shaped brown beads going horizontally across her cape.
"Is Isaac ready this time?" she spoke through an intercom, making the teen to turn to his friend who nodded with a grin, saluting with two fingers before the teen looked up and did the same salute Isaac had done, getting a sigh from the woman who pressed a button, illuminating the area with a forest clearing, making the two take on fighting stance with their respective weapons with Isaac holding two triple barreled revolvers while the wolf teen had his hands in a clawing motion.

"How's Nora been Kolbe, gotten to second base yet?" questioned Isaac as he scanned the area, spotting three bushes rustling to his right while the teen known as Kolbe sighed in annoyance.
"Isaac, keep your mouth shut please" Kolbe said before he shrouded himself with black ashes, making Isaac turn and grin, aiming his revolvers to his left and fire hitting a holographic Beowulf signaling for Kolbe to charge at an Ursa head on, shocking whoever was watching the ash shot forward in a human form with a blue aura around it, attacking with Ninjato forming in its hands, stunning the Ursa as Kolbe sent another ash copy as the other shot back to him, this one being more taller and muscular, sporting a large square hammer that it swung upward and doing the same as the one before while a smaller one zoomed by, running on all fours with a human form, swiping with its hand like they were claws, leaving deep gashes on the holographic Ursa before the ash figure zoomed back to Kolbe who held two Scythes, swinging at the Ursa that took a defensive stance, failing as the scythes effortlessly cut into its arms and shoulder, looking up to see a larger scythe stab into its head, allowing Kolbe to rip the scythe from its head and move to the Beowolf pack Isaac was dealing with rather well, turning to see Kolbe vanish and reappear with two large Sickle decapitating four Beowolves who fell terminated, followed by Isaac shooting past Kolbe while said teen threw the sickles past Isaac, impaling two Beowolves before Kolbe yanked on chains that brought the sickle back to his hands making them weapons break into ash the floated in the air before turning into two sawed off shotguns, shooting what was left on his side while Isaac finished off his side, satisfied he holstered his revolvers and turned to Kolbe with a smirk, making Kolbe panic as a Beowolf jumped up from behind Isaac, preparing to defend his friend until said teen saw Isaac spin with his right hand covered by a red aura, sending a right hook that set the hologram in flames killing it slowly.
"TIME!?" yelled Isaac as he looked up, seeing Glynda check the clock, blinking in surprise.
"3 minutes and sixty seconds!" said Glynda with the two high fiving before they made their way to the exit, greeted by team JNPR and the rest of the members of SKID, with Nora hugging Kolbe with a kiss, laughing softly as he lifted her onto his shoulders, waiting for team SKID and JNPR to walk, allowing Kolbe to morph his attire into the school uniform, whistling before Sox came running to his side, followed by Akuma, the tamable Grimm that now wore a spiked collar, walking silently beside Kolbe while scanning the area before Team JNPR went to the cafeteria.
"I'll see you later puppy" said Nora, kissing Kolbe's forehead before dropping down and run to her team, leaving team SKID on their way to their dorm, with Kolbe separating from the Group
"Hey Kolbe, when you see Ozpin tell him I said hi" said Samantha as Kolbe walked beside Sox and Akuma, both being quiet as they emerged from the building, looking up to see the tower.
"Well, let's see what he called us for" said Kolbe before he began walking, making Akuma run to his side as Kolbe entered the building, making his way to the elevator with his two comrades in tow. Letting Kolbe stand with his arms crossed before Akuma turned to him.
"Is there a reason for him to call for you, Kolbe?" the Grimm hybrid spoke with a feminine voice, making Kolbe shrug while Sox tilted his head until the elevator door opened to show Ozpin sitting at his desk, letting Sox and Akuma walk to the left side of the office before sitting down.
"Hey Ozzy" greeted Kolbe as he approached his father figure, getting an annoyed yet amused sigh from the man.
"We discussed about you calling me that Kolbe" said Ozpin with a smile until he brought out a scroll, confusing Kolbe until a video appeared on the scroll.
"I don't really believe but I'm just making sure that I'm not seeing things" Ozpin said as he passed Kolbe the scroll, looking at it before he saw a familiar looking dock, making him go into panic mode until he controlled himself until he saw himself snarling at the light before the video skipped to him dropping from the crate and sink into the ground skipping again to show the stone giant, than to the lightning one he took, making him pause the video to look up fearfully at Ozpin who had a plain look on his features, making Kolbe sweat nervously as he looked at Ozpin.
"I believe that this will stay between you, me and the ones who witnessed your newly discovered abilities" said Ozpin, making Kolbe prepare to object until Ozpin continued.
"I'm not saying you have to give up on being a hunter, but we have to keep it a secret, because the people who find out about this will no doubt attempt to bribe me or kidnap you, Kolbe, you are like a son to me, and your safety is my top priority, And I don't want you to be taken, do I make myself clear?" said Ozpin, looking to Kolbe who had a worried look until he nodded with a sad look.
"But that is too late for the warning since the Headmaster Ironwood had seen you fight, and has also asked to meet you in person" added Ozpin, making Kolbe look even more worried.
"I'm not gonna be taken away am I?" questioned Kolbe with a nervous smile, getting a chuckle from Ozpin.
"No of course not, He just wants to see a demonstration of your abilities, and speaking of abilities have you discovered what your semblance is yet?" questioned Ozpin, taking a sip from his coffee.
"No not yet, but my other abilities have been growing the more things I imagine" stated Kolbe with a shrug, getting a raised eyebrow from Ozpin who set the coffee mug down.
"And do you care to demonstrate?" said Ozpin, causing Kolbe to close his eyes before they snapped open followed by ash flowing out of his sleeves and moved behind him, confusing Ozpin until they became military weapons, making Ozpin blink in shock as Kolbe looked to his right to see the weapons, making him gawk before they flowed back into his sleeves, making him look at Ozpin who blinked every once and a while until he spoke.
"And you discovered this the night you were-" was as far Ozpin went until his scroll beeped, making the two look at it as Ozpin held it.
"We'll discuss this later, you are free to have lunch…" said Ozpin, letting Kolbe turn to walk to the elevator until Ozpin spoke.
"Oh and Kolbe-"said Ozpin with Kolbe turning around.
"Tell Nora I said hello" said Ozpin with a smile, getting one back from Kolbe
"I'll be sure to do that" said Kolbe as he stood in the elevator, waiting for Akuma and Sox who ran inside, sitting silently as the doors closed.
"He seemed to take your abilities calmly" said Akuma with an amused tone of voice, making Kolbe look down and shrug, making Akuma sigh with a roll of his eyes before the door opened, showing Glynda stopping at the sight of Kolbe.
"Mr. Croft" greeted Glynda
"Goodwitch" said Kolbe stopping briefly until they heard an explosion from the dining hall building, making Kolbe and Glynda look up to see Yang flying upward.
"Oh dear" said Glynda, slumping down as Kolbe and Akuma snuck away towards the Bullhead where the pilot was just leaving until he noticed Kolbe walking towards him.
"Hey Kolb, what's up?" questioned the pilot with a smile.
"Oh you know the usual, Friends cause problems, finished reading my Book, and so on… Oh and can you take me to vale please" said Kolbe with a smile, making the older man sigh with his head slumped down.
"Get in" was all he said, getting a cheer from Kolbe who stepped on the vehicle.
"An hour over Vale
"This never gets old for you doesn't it?" questioned the pilot, looking at the back of the Bullhead to see Kolbe leaning out the bay door, leaning back in with a smile.
"Nope, never has never will, stay safe" said Kolbe with a salute, leaning out of the Bullhead before freefalling, shrouding his body with ash before it formed a screaming skull where his face was, laughing hysterically, holding out his arms before the jump suit attachment to his coat sprouted, allowing him to direct his descent, spinning before he flew above the streets of Vale, seeing pedestrian's point and look at him until he made a parachute from the ash, allowing him to casually continue walking on the street until he came upon the book store of Tukson, only something was off; the lights in the store were off when they should be on and the store open.
"I have a bad feeling about this" mused Kolbe before he zoomed to the door like a blur, reaching for the door and slowly open it, making his eyes widen as the store was ransacked.
"Tukson!" yelled Kolbe as he ran to the back of the store, sliding over the desk and into the next room after, looking around frantically until he froze at the sight of Tukson beaten to an inch of his life, making Kolbe dash to the man.
"Tukson?" said Kolbe in a frantic voice, trying to wake Tukson until the Faunus gave up and sat still, making Kolbe look around for medical supplies until he remembered his abilities.
"God damn it" growled Kolbe in worry as his hands crackled with blue lightning.
"Wake up Tukson!" growled Kolbe as he sent a soft punch into the Faunus' chest, getting a soft gasp as the wounds on Tukson seemed to heal instantly with Kolbe jumping back with the left over electricity moving through him until he shook It off, seeing Tukson look around in fear until he saw Kolbe balance against a wall.
"Kolbe?" said Tukson as the teen shook his head to see the man.
"Wow that actually worked" he groaned before passing out.
"You are one strange kid Kolbe"
"Oh shut up" growled Kolbe with a grin as he looked at the bookseller who held a hand down to him which he gradually took before he caught two scents in the air.
"Do you smell that?" questioned Kolbe as he scanned the room, sniffing again before his eyes became golden with him zooming out of the shop, leaving a confused Tukson, shrugging before he cried anime tears at his shop.
"Come on, I swear I had- there" muttered Kolbe before he stopped at a complete stop as he sniffed the air, snarling as he leaped into the air sniffing as he walked on the roof before again coming to a complete halt with a scowl.
"Damn it!" growled Kolbe as the trail seemed to vanish, looking down to see faint footprints
"So much for my nose" said Kolbe before he felt a smile crawl onto his face.
"I never thought I'd say something like that"
