Hey guy you don't understand how sorry I am but please try to forgive me I tried to get it out during new years but… you'll see. Also if you don't like the end then tell me what you don't like about it. (Maya) so ya Anthony has been busy with this and we're still trying to fix his desktop because it won't run Poser. But, guys, when we get it working our first project thing were gonna work on is this fight seen so look out.
The Kids woke up with their uniforms prepared for them next to them and they all thought the same thing 'Anthony?'
The kids got showered and dressed as they would any other day and when they were about to leave Anthony stormed in the room and handed each a plate, with a napkin on top.
Anthony rubbed his hands and said "Eat guys!" and the kids couldn't believe it and they sat on their respective beds and took the napkins off the plate to reveal their food.
As soon as they took the napkins were off the room was hit with the delicious scent of their meals.
Ricky's plate had chorizo, eggs and some chopped potatoes and fried pinto beans on the side with four flour tortillas carefully folded on top.
Joslin's plate had fluffed biscuits with white gravy on top with bits of spiced beef scattered around the plate, and dots of red sauce to spice her meal up some more.
Manuel's plate had waffles that swelled with flavor, a small square of butter on top with two pieces of fried chicken and a side of mashed potatoes.
They looked at it with amazement and then they looked at Anthony who was leaning against his book case and gestured them to eat.
They couldn't help but stuff their mouths, they ate in a hurry but made sure they had enough time to taste the food.
It was odd enough that Anthony actually made breakfast, but the fact that the meal seemed to match their exact desire for flavor.
They scarfed it down and then they noticed Anthony wasn't eating anything "Aren't… you... gonna… eat?" Ricky asked between bites and Anthony smiled.
"I already ate you guys go ahead." Anthony responded with but only he knew this was a lie, he hadn't eaten the entire time they've been in Beacon.
Though they didn't need to know that, he went and took off his apron and shoved it in his closet and leaned against the door.
"So now what are we gonna do?" Anthony said as the kids were finishing their plates "Well tomorrow is the fight." Manuel said wiping his mouth.
Anthony rolled his eyes and said "That's obvious, but I meant for today, what are you guys doing?" and Ricky handed his plate to Anthony
"Well me, Manuel, and Joslin have classes all of today and then we then have to try to make sure our abilities are weaken." Anthony huffed out of boredom.
"Can we meet for lunch?"Joslin asked the kids had nothing better to do so they agreed and planned where to meet and sit at "Its time we started to head to our first period class." Ricky said.
They all gathered their stuff and headed out to their individual classes, around campus.
First period was the Boys (A/N This term refers to only Manuel and Rick) World History class with Dr. Oobleck.
The boys weren't paying attention in class, but they were able to hear a couple of words here and there, like Incredible fighting power… never before seen… beware… and the boy think they heard the word 'elf'.
They didn't care, it wasn't their issue, so they messed around as the professor talked about their new unit.
Before they knew it, class was over and they were out of class heading to their next period.
Fourth period is Joslins Advance Science class, but today she wasn't paying much attention to it.
She was thinking of ways to get her semblance back or how to speed it up the healing process.
While she was thinking her shoulder was being tapped and she looked at a another girl about her age.
She looked at Joslin with sad eyes like she was gonna cry for her "Hey, my name is Liz."
Joslin at first didn't understand, but she thought better and decided to make a new friend "My names Joslin."
"What is your name short for," Joslin asked "Is it Elizabeth?" and Liz brushed her red hair out of her face and said "No it's short for lizard…"
There was an awkward pause between them and then they started to giggle they got the attention of some of their classmates.
They started to talk about small thing until the class started to pack up in anticipation for the bell "Hey do you want to meet during lunch?"
"Ya sure, is it alright if we sit with my team." Joslin asked as she put away her notebook.
"Alright let me contact my team and I'll tell them where to meet us." Liz said as the bell rang and they waved each other off to get to their team.
In the cafeteria…
Anthony sat there looking at a blank space in the air letting his mind wander, then Manuel nudged him back to reality.
"What?" Anthony said in a annoyed tone as he looked at his brother "Dude, what is it with you and that different opinion crap?" he asked.
Anthony looked confused and then said "Why the sudden interest in me?" Manuel just shrugged and said "We were just talking about personalities right now."
Anthony decided to ignore him from then on and he was about to slip back into his own wandering mind, when he felt something strange.
There was a strange feeling in the air that made his spine tingle, it was unusual for him to feel this way and he turned behind him to find nothing there.
Though nothing was there he could feel it, then it began to move away from him, he got up from the table and began to move after it.
He made sure not to act suspicious, but also maintained to be in close proximity of this thing.
Then it stopped and Anthony stopped to, he kept note that it had no effect on the other students, just him.
He used his aura to see if this thing had a shape or a form he could identify, but he didn't see anything.
But everything in his body told him that this thing was incredibly dangerous, like if the air was threatening his very life.
He didn't understand it and he was about to use his semblance to see it until it vanished from his mental radar.
Anthony at that point was even more interested in it, but he realized he was in the middle of the cafeteria still standing there.
He went to walk back to his siblings table, and as he was heading down the row he noticed Cardin snickering as he looked at Anthony.
Cardin extended his leg to trip Anthony and he just jumped over his leg, and then apparently there was someone else behind him.
The girl tripped over Cardin's leg and was about to fall, normally Anthony would allow her to fall but he knows that Ivory would bug him all day about it.
He did a quick twirl with his body, and caught the girl in his arms and lifted his other arm and caught the plate and her lunch.
He looked down at her, and would of stood her up but he began to noticed her beauty, her onyx black eyes and her hair black as the void that had a soft shine to it due to the light.
Her skin was a dark and toned slightly red, and only Anthony could tell, but she was blushing.
"What's your name?" she asked as she tried to look away from him "Can I get the name of the person I just saved?" Anthony asked in response.
"Rebecca, are you alright?" said a familiar voice in the distance 'Rebecca keeping that in mind' Ivory said fileing up the name.
'That voice seems familiar' Ebony said and Anthony turned to it and saw both Anna and McKenna, both his ex-girlfriends.
He immediately dropped Rebecca, but as she fell she grabbed onto his collar pulling both of them to the floor.
The food was sent flying in the air and landed on the two falling victims, everyone around started to laugh at them.
At this time Anthony's siblings got there and the first thing Manuel did was pointing and laughing at them.
Anthony was the first to get up "Why the hell did you grab me!" and she responded just as quick "Why the hell did you drop me!"
Anthony stepped over her and left the scene, but not before dealing with Manuel.
Manuel stood there still laughing his ass off and Anthony grabbed his hood and pulled it over his head.
Then Manuel's uniform fell to the floor, everyone that was laughing then shut up and Anthony walked away.
Liz showed up and then helped Rebecca up "I'm so sorry about Anthony." Ricky said as he was picking up Manuel's clothes.
"It doesn't matter." Rebecca said as she and Liz brushed the food off of her, then Liz suggested "Let's get to the table so we're not still standing."
They headed to the table where they were origanally sitting at "Here you can have Anthony's plate," Ricky said "Since he dropped yours."
Rebecca shook her head "Nah, I don't eat anyway." She said plainly and she began to stare off into space, and the kids couldn't help but feel they've seen that same look before.
"Why doesn't she eat?" Joslin asked Liz, in a worried voice "She just doesn't eat," Liz explained "She hasn't eaten since she arrived here."
They looked at Rebecca with shock "Is she alright?" and Liz brushed off the comment and saw the awkward glances that the teams was exchanging.
"Well, whats the story with you guys," Liz asked "How do you know each other so well?" The kids glanced at each other and nodded.
"Those two," Ricky said pointing his finger at McKenna and Anna "Used to date Anthony back when we were younger."
They didn't deny it and they seemed to blush about it "That was when we didn't know what love was."
Manuel arrived and as he did he scoffed at them "Sure you did." They glared at him like they wanted him to drop dead right there.
He didn't pay attention to them he just sat down in his seat and took his old clothes from Ricky.
"Where did you go?" Anna asked rubbing in the fact that Anthony embarrassed him "Anthony sent me to the front of the school…" They knew that he was hiding another fact but they decided not to ask.
They chatted a bit after that and then Anna brought up something else "What's this I hear about a fight?" Ricky groaned in response but Manuel was excited.
"Ya, it's us versus Team RWBY, and when that bell rings I'm gonna totally crush them under my foot!" He said with determination in his eyes.
"Anthony is not gonna participate in the fight, now is he?" McKenna asked and Ricky nodded in agreement.
Both Anna and McKenna had a face filled with horror "He shouldn't be allowed to fight against weaker opponents like them."
"I know, but Ozpin won't stop the fight," Ricky explained "He actually insists on the fight to go on."
The girls looked at each other and said "I guess we should be there to keep an eye on him just in case."
"Who do you guys think is gonna win?" Joslin asked them and without hesitation they answered immediately "You guys, without a doubt."
"Ya, thats what I thought to." Ricky said in a miserable tone and on cue the bell rang and it snapped Rebecca out of her trance.
"Bye guys, it was nice talking to you." She grabbed Liz's arm and started to pull her away from the table.
Liz waved to Joslin bye as she was dragged away, "Well at least we have some help in case of Anthony."
Back in Anthony's 5th period classroom…
"So that, class, is how you can use your own aura to affect another person's." Anthony said facing his class "This can be useful if you wish to heal anyone or anything with a sliver of aura."
He turned to face his class and saw barely half of them paying attention, he looked down and then thought it would be great to remind all of them of the test.
"Alright, just as a reminder next week we are gonna be taking this semesters test so make sure you practice your semblance." and the class groaned in response.
"Oh, don't be like that you guys should be fine." Anthony said and then he looked to Justin and saw he was recovering from their last encounter.
One of his students raised their hands and Anthony gave her permission to speak "is it true you're gonna fight the RWBY team?"
Anthony was half tempted to ignore the question, but saw that his entire class was eager for confirmation "Yes, my team and I will be fighting Team RWBY in a 4v4 match"
The entire class then started to talk amongst themselves and more hands raised, Anthony didn't like the attention and he began to answer every question.
After a dozen questions Anthony noticed the time and pointed to another student raising his hand "You are gonna be the last question I answer so make it good."
"Yes, you see I'm from the Beacon Daily and I'm wondering who you think will win this fight?" The student had a pen and notepad and was interested in Anthony's next words.
'Lets amuse him for a bit!' Ebony suggested and Anthony was onborn with this plan, "Well if you're talking about skill and training it would have to be my team..." Anthony said.
Anthony was gonna continue until the same student interrupted him "How can you say that?" He questioned Anthony "You guys are in the same grade so you are equals, aren't you?"
'This kid' Ivory said in an amused tone "Well, though we are in the same grade my family is trained by the military and masters of a variety of combat techniques." The class was quiet when they realized just how dangerous their teacher is.
The bell rang and everyone hurried to pack up and get to their next class, they waved their teacher bye as they left and some of them said they were gonna root for him to win, Anthony smiled to them even though he hated every word.
Anthony packed his own stuff now that school was over and left his classroom to head out to do one last thing.
As he walked he saw a teacher that looked familiar "Good afternoon, Oobleck." Anthony said as he caught up with him "Hello my new equal."
Anthony didn't quite understand what he meant by that but continued to talk "What do you think Ozpin wants to talk about?" "Have no idea, but whatever it is must be important enough to call an emergency meeting."
Oobleck looked at Anthony with concern "Do you think it has something to do with the slow disappearance of the Faunus?"
Anthony shook his head and responded "No, I don't think so and if it is than it must be a pretty big problem."
Anthony and Oobleck entered the meeting room and saw most of the other teachers there to "Well, this is a bigger deal than I thought." Anthony said as he looked for a seat.
He sat near a teacher that wore silver everything, and then they waited for Ozpin to show up and start the meeting.
Ozpin, with Glynda right next to him, got to the front of the meeting room and spoke aloud to everyone.
"So I'll make this brief." he said in a distant tone "You may have heard some strange disturbance that have been happening around the school."
This was true, the fact a teacher used a flashbang to prevent a fight between some students and then some students saying they've seen an elf around Beacon.
Then there was that weird thing that student said he was from somewhere that is not part of remnant, something like Terra maybe.
Also the Elite team was beaten by an unknown force and the Halloween party was attacked by a type of military.
"I have nothing to explain why all this is happening but all I have to say is to stay out of it if you can." Ozpin continued "Though we are here to teach our students, sometimes they have to learn how to handle things without a tutor."
The meeting continued throughout the night and didn't end until some time had passed, when the meeting ended it was passed curfew so most of the teacher headed home to their families.
Anthony walked back to his dorm and as he entered he saw his siblings resting in their individual beds as they would if they were in Atlas.
He couldn't help but still take care of them even if they didn't know about it, Anthony put Ricky's back on him, he turned off Joslin's drawing light and looked at the beautiful horse she was drawing.
He put a blanket on Manuel as he sat down slumped over his homework assignments that were due that day.
Anthony went back to the door to leave when he looked back at them and whispered "You guys don't know this, but why you sleep so soundly is because you know that you're protected by the ones you love..."
He walked out the room and softly closed the door "...If I only felt the same way." he walked down the hallway and exit the dorm hall.
Anthony sat on a bench where he'd be there until morning "I hope someone won't die tomorrow." someone said behind him.
He didn't move but the person sat down next to him and he saw it was Glynda "Well, that all depends." and said in a bored tone
"What does it depend on?" She asked in a quizzical tone "Who strikes first blood and if they go all out." she looked at him with a mortified expression.
"These are children you are fighting how do you expect them to defend themselves against someone of your caliber." Anthony had no answer she wanted to hear so he remained silent.
"For someone who has lived as long as you have you make a lot of horrible decisions." Anthony looked at her with eyes filled with hunger.
'Let me take bite out of her, it's the least she deserves' Ebony asked but Anthony ignored him "Since we are on the topic of horrible decisions I was shocked you agreed with Ozpin about the fight."
She stared at him with hate but that only made him feel happy that he turned the tables "Talking with that man is almost impossible itself, but arguing is pretty much futile."
Anthony smirk at the comment "I have someone in my life that is just like that, but maybe not in a similar relationship as you and Ozpin."
She blushed, which was very unlike her, "Me and Ozpin are strictly professional so there is nothing going on."
He grinned and said "I didn't as if anything was going on, I merely said we don't have a similar status
They sat there in the night taking it all in until Glynda decided to break the silence "You are gonna leave them alive, right?" Anthony was tired of being asked that all day.
'Let's be truthful to her at least' Ivory suggested and Anthony agreed "Well I can assure you that they will survive the ordeal, but if they'll be the same person is a different question."
Glynda didn't know to be relieved or worried about the statement but decided it would be best to see for herself tomorrow "Tomorrow is gonna be an eventful evening" she said ironically.
The sun began to break over the horizon, but the kids were already up and getting ready for a fight against team RWBY…
Manuel sat on his bed counting his arrows and testing the string of his bow every so often.
Ricky was loading up different types of ammunition, in a variety of pouches on his armour, just in case the kids needed more ammo during the fight.
Joslin sat on her bed sharpening her sword as she inspected her armour for any imperfections.
Anthony wasn't in the room getting ready, but he always kept everything he needed on him (…most of the time) just in case he needed to be in combat at the second.
He didn't carry a gun of any sort so he didn't need ammo, he didn't wear armour of any kind, and his blades were alway ready to be used.
Manuel put on his armour he put on his leather tunic that was sleeveless, he then put on a black long coat that was plated with metal in various places and leather waist belt where he kept his ammo for his bow and SMG's with some other nick nacks.
He put on another belt that wrapped across his chest where it kept his dagger and a holster on the back to keep his bow in place, to finish of he put on his customized vambraces.
Joslin wore her regular chestplate that was silver like the rest of her combat armour, her armour was basic and allowed plenty of movements .
She loaded her sniper and prepared everything so she can leave at the last second, she laid against the bedroom door waiting for everyone else.
Ricky didn't like to wear armour on account it made him slow and restricted some of his movements, but in this case he wore some, he wore a basic chestplate and some studded leggings.
He made sure some of his movements were restricted, but enough movement so he could stand a fighting chance, after making sure everyone was ready they left to the arena.
As they got there they saw Anthony leaning on their side of the arena with two vials in his hands.
"Here you guys go," he said as he tossed the two vials to Manuel and Ricky labeled drink me "Those will help reduce your semblance ability and your reflexes."
"Why don't I get one?" Joslin asked in an annoying tone "You need a semblance for it to work or you'll just hurt yourself some more." Anthony said
The arena was a large oval shaped arena that had no roof, and large clear walls for students to view through, the rafters were filled with students.
The far side of the rafters were filled with people rooting for team RWBY and near team ARMJ the rafters were rooting for them to win.
Oobleck entered the arena through a door on the right and walked to a microphone set up in the center.
He cleared his throat getting everyone's attention "Today's match is RWBY vs. ARMJ, this fight will last until one says 'I give up', keep in mind it doesn't matter if ones aura levels reaches to the red zone."
The crowd seem to shift around uncomfortably for a second and Oobleck continued "There is a room where those that are eliminated can rest and heal if injured, I'm here to supervise and to make sure no one causes any fatal wounds or death."
That last word hung in the air and Oobleck pointed to each door and said "Fighters enter the arena" both teams entered the arena and the crowd started to cheer again.
The two teams walked to Oobleck and asked them "Do you guys have anything you wish to share or ask the other team?"
Ricky walked up to the mic and said "You know we don't have to fight, we can stop this right now..." the girls looked to Ruby who responded for the whole team "We are team RWBY and we wont back down from the challenge."
The crowd cheered even more and Oobleck had to quiet them down before he could continue "Alright team leaders shake hands."
Anthony stepped up and shook hands with Ruby, she squeezed his hand but he didn't care he let go of her hand and they walked back to their sides.
"Fighters ready up." The girls cocked their weapons and took stance, Manuel took out his bow and split it in half, with the string connecting the weapon and stood to the far right taking stance.
Rick stood on the far left and got his hammer out and hefted it over his shoulder ready to swing when he needed to.
Joslin stood between her brothers and got her long sword out and covered her face with the shield, blinding her vision, but she activated her shields camera view and it diagnosed team RWBY and showed their equipment, ammo, and armour.
Anthony placed his weapons on the floor in front of him, he then sat down and meditated behind the kids.
Oobleck then took the mic stand and he walked back the way he came in and as he made sure he was away from the fighting he spoke one word into the mic "Go"
The fight started and the first person to move was Yang, she used the memory of their first encounter and moved to the person that caused her the most pain, Ricky.
Ricky almost didn't see her coming, but he couldn't counter her with the way she was attacking, he blocked and was preparing himself for the attack.
Until Manuel came in from the right and side kicked Yang pushing her out of the way, she turned to him with anger.
Joslin sprinted Weiss to defeat who seemed like the weakest opponent, but she forgot there was two other opponents their.
Blake and Weiss attacked at the same time Blake use her kusarigama to attack Joslin from a distance and Weiss used her Glyph to move to Joslin.
Weiss was the first to come and Joslin used her shield to absorb some of the blow and turned her shield so Weiss moved to the left of her.
Blake realized her blade would be intercepted by Weiss, she tried to bring the blade back but all she could do was move it enough so the blade didn't cut her.
The handle of the blade hit Weiss in the head, momentarily discombobulating her, Joslin took this opportunity to dig the face of her shield into Weiss's knees and flipped Weiss over her.
She then charged to Blake with her shield up and her sword scraping the floor behind her.
Ruby was gonna assist Blake until she noticed the area around her darken, she looked up to see Ricky swinging his hammer down to her.
She quickly jumped backwards enough to barely miss the hit, Ricky looked to her, pulled his hammer up from the floor and chased after her.
Ruby used her semblance to separate the distance between them quickly, She ended up near Manuel and Yang who were desperately trying to get the first blow on each other.
Manuel caught sight of Ruby in the corner of his eyes and stabbed the ground burying his sword in the floor.
He then pressed a button allowing his string to extend itself, he then sped around Yang wrapping his bow string around her.
He didn't stop until she couldn't moved and on cue Ruby came running into the fight "Yang let me help you." Yang struggled against the coils and yelled at her "NO" Yang knew what was gonna happen next.
Manuel pressed the same button and it started to recoil and the string tightened around Yang, but she wouldn't give in and Ruby tried to help Yang but it was too late to remove them.
Ruby was to afraid to cut the wires due to she might cut her sister, Ruby stared at Manuel and he grinned in response he let go of his sword and it sped to her.
She was able to lift Crescent Rose in a defensive position in time to deflect he first blow, but it continued to whip around Yang and striking at Ruby.
Ruby jumped away from her sister to avoid the barrage of slashes, and when the wire was done unwrapping itself it connected to the end of the sword.
Yang was spinning and confused, but headed towards Manuel with purpose, he took a running leap at her clotheslining her and raced for his weapons.
He picked up his weapon, which turned into bow form as soon as it connected, and notched a Imperial Purple dust and aimed it at Ruby who in response slammed her blade into the ground and looked down the sights.
In the midst of chaos they had a standoff where no one stopped them and no one fired until one moved, it was Manuel's impatience that started.
He let the dust fly and Ruby fired at the dust, but what came next only an expert on dust could of told.
As soon as the dust broke a purple vacuum of space opened up and everyone flew to the center of it, the only people that wasn't affected by it was Blake, Manuel, and Anthony.
Blake unsheathed her sword her sword and then Manuel to split his sword apart to start dual wielding to and they attacked each other with animal like ferocity.
In the pile of bodies Yang was the first to get up and she saw Ricky and thought 'This is my chance to get even with him.' She cocked her gauntlet and threw her fist to his chest.
Joslin started to stir around that time and she leaped and threw her shield to take the blow, luckily it was enough to stop the bullets but the impact, still woke him up.
Ricky threw Joslin her shield back and she caught it, then stormed to Yang who was just as happy to attack her, Joslin backed away to give other people room to breathe.
Yang didn't see the distance between her and Ricky, but at the moment she had another opponent she wanted to beat.
She was hammering down on Joslin trying to exhaust her, but Joslin peaked her head out and Yang caught her looking.
Instead of attacking more she softened her punched, she stared back at Joslin and saw the slight fear in her eyes and the innocent in her face reminded her of Ruby's face.
Yang couldn't hurt her or not that bad anyways, she tried a new approach by trying to get around Joslin's shield and pin her, then beat her to a pulp.
But then Joslin's eye broke contact from Yang's stare and then was looking at something behind Yang, Joslin hid behind her shield completely and then three rounds struck her shield finally pushing her to the wall.
Yang looked to see who fired the shot and saw Ruby looking down her scopes of her gun Ruby walked next to her sister and they were now ready to fight, they took their stance against Joslin.
Joslin knew she needed some length on these two and then she switched her long sword into a spear and hunkered down until one came towards her.
The ground shook violently and then thats when Joslin took her chance to strike, the people that did look saw Ricky facing against Weiss.
Weiss speed was an advantage against Ricky but any attacks against him didn't work on him.
'If I can beat their strongest the rest will know they won't stand a chance.' Weiss thought to herself, she had already told everyone the plan to take out Ricky the first chance they got.
Ricky swung his hammer wide trying to get her in the side and his efforts was worthless, because she saw the swing and dodged it easily.
Ricky got ready for another swing but by the time he saw where Weiss was she was already in his face with Myrtenaster pointed at his chest che fire and ice dust at Ricky.
It slowly surrounded him until he became a statue of ice, Weiss then readied another dust and quick stepped towards him and fired a dust that exploded and sent him flying where he landed next to Anthony.
Manuel was in combat with Blake still and he was using his weapon like a whip to either keep her at a distance or to direct her to a new direction, but she was also good at doing that with Gambol Shroud.
He knew he had to keep the fight equal but he was fed up of Blake being able to stop every attack he made.
He extended his wire and swung it from his right side, Blade was able to see the blade coming and blocked where she thought the weapon would land.
This was what Manuel was waiting for, he allowed his wire to extend further so all Blake blocked was wire, but the stop of the wires momentum changed the arc of the throw.
Now the blade was coming in towards Blake's right side, she couldn't block it in time and the blade buried itself deep into stomach.
Blake cried out in agony and Manuel called the weapon back digging itself across her spine and out her other side.
Everyone turned their attention towards her and saw the puddle of blood she was laying in, everyone in the audience was silent for a long second.
Manuel stood where he was spinning his blade covered in blood spraying more fresh blood everywhere.
"Manuel!" Anthony yelled in a annoyed tone, they locked eyes for a second and they both nodded making a silent agreement.
Weiss ran to Blakes side, and the other girls tried to run to Blake but Joslin wouldn't let them pass her.
Weiss pressed her hand against the wound to see how deep it was, how severe it is, and if they needed to stop this fight.
But as she felt she didn't feel any wound and when she removed her hand she saw no wound any more, the blood was there but nothing was coming out.
Blake woke up and grabbed her side and she patted herself down and found herself in one piece they both looked towards Manuel with shock, then anger.
He spun both blades and when he saw both of them getting ready to fight him he changed one of his swords into SMG form and took his own stance.
They both charged at him, he pointed his SMG at Blake and fired at her leaving her little choice but to use her shadow clone to push herself away from harm.
Weiss was able to get close to Manuel but he blocked the initial stab and the other slashes like they were nothing, he was focusing his fire on Blake.
Blake and Weiss's gaze met and then they came up with a plan, Weiss backed off and Blake continued to keep Manuel's attention.
Then Blake stormed towards Manuel doing her best to dodge or block the incoming storm of bullets, Manuel knew something was wrong but he was stuck in the moment to see what it was.
Then Manuel's gun started to make a clicking sound, he was now out of bullets, he was fast when it came to reloading but by the time he pointed his gun at Blake she was gone.
Then the floor beneath him glowed and he was flung backwards, the first thing he felt was a drowning sensation and a sense of fire in his chest.
He looked down and saw Gambol Shroud sticking out of his chest 'It obviously pierced his lung.' Anthony thought but he didn't do anything about it.
Then Blake pulled out the thin blade and backed off so Weiss can finish him off, Weiss came at him with blinding speed and shot a red crystal at him point blank.
He exploded in a ball of fire and was sent flying until he landed with a thud to the right of Anthony, still burning around him.
Anthony huffed and looked at how Joslin was doing 'She should of been out a while ago,' Ivory said 'It's good to know shes getting better!'
Even as they looked they saw that she was losing ground against them, Ruby and Yang were striking at Joslin in turn, but it seemed to be half-heartedly.
Joslin made such good friends with Ruby and Yang looks at Joslin and sees her own sister that they don't really want to hurt her.
But Joslin was taking her time waiting for the right moment to strike, but if she didn't make it soon she won't be able to last this fight.
She swiped at them to give her some more room, but it was as threatening as a panda with a bamboo stick.
The sisters looked at each other and then put down their weapons if they can convince her they won't need to fight her.
As soon as their weapons were away Joslin made a devilish grin, this was the moment she was waiting for.
She threw her shield at Yang which hit her directly in the gut and moved her back some feet, and the Joslin charged at Ruby.
Ruby was shocked and barely reacted fast enough to block the first swing, but Joslin now knew she was in range and started to stab at Ruby who dodged the threatening attacks.
Yang was now up and she looked at Joslins sheil and then she threw the shield back at Joslin, but she caught it and in a fluid motion threw it to Ruby's feet.
It collided perfectly and it sent Ruby to the floor, Joslin threw her spear at Ruby but it wasn't thrown to hurt just to pin Ruby down on the ground.
Joslin ran passed Ruby and grabbed her shield, at this time Ruby was up trying to remove the spear from her cloak.
Joslin charge at Ruby then jumped over her and left her a surprise, Ruby looked down to see a unique grenade at her feet.
She tried to kick it away but it went off before she could touch it, the grenade released tons of air sending Ruby, Joslin's spear and debri flying in the air.
Joslin jumped in the air high enough to grab her spear back and she landed gracefully where Ruby landed with a thud.
Joslin walked over to Ruby, but laucher herself at Joslin, in which she responded by lifting her shield to absorb the attack.
But this attack was more powerful because it sent Joslin flying back, she was able to recover but she had two more people to fight.
Blake stuck at Joslin repeatedly and Joslin took the time to change her spear into a sword but as it did that Blake flipped her over Joslin and by the time Joslin turned around her stomach was kneed.
Blake then kicked Joslin in the face and it sent her to the floor, when she was getting herself up the floor formed a glyph and she was sent back flying to Yang and Ruby.
When she arrived at their feet Ruby had her weapon ready and swung at Joslin like a hockey player swung at a puck.
Joslin stopped next to her other siblings and layed there motionlessly, the girls stood a safe distance away and had their weapon ready.
"If you think we're gonna give up so soon then you haven't heard of us." Anthony said not getting up "My siblings have been holding themselves back but nothing can stop this."
All the kids got back up regardless of their wounds they may have, "You see my siblings are all faunus."
Manuel looked at Blake and ripped his skin off revealing the purple scale beneath, his eyes dilated vertically, and he grinned revealing fangs that dripped a black ooze.
Joslin took off her chestplate and rolled her shoulders, her hair changed from it long strands into feathers, she lifted her arms and wings popped out of her back the feathers were red like a cardinals.
Ricky roared and his muscles expanded, brown hair grew everywhere around him, he lifted his arms and slammed the floor cracking it in a large radius.
"You see I'm nothing like my siblings, because they are more of an animal than me." Anthony said and then he pointed at the girls "Time for round two."
Joslin made sure everything was secured and took off in the air with her spear in hand, Manuel began to charge at them with blinding speed.
Ricky was about to charge to until Anthony patted his leg he looked down at his brother and Anthony said "Ricky, Sweep the Floor" Ricky shook his head but the look Anthony gave him changed his mind.
Ricky grabbed his hammer and he started to change it to it's minigun form, and Anthony continued to meditate but put in some earplugs for whats gonna happen next.
Manuel was over with the four girls having a great time dodging every attack and making them so mad, but as soon as he heard the clinking and clanking of metal he knew he had to get out of there.
He ran to the closest wall and ran up it before jumping off, he reached his arms out.
Joslin flew low enough and locked her arms with Manuel's arms and they lifted off into the air, then the four girls noticed the metal grating and they looked to see the minigun complete.
They ran but Ricky had already began firing, moving it slowly from the Right-to-Left.
The girls needed to get off the floor before they were made into mince meat, Ruby fired her rifle at the floor launching her in the air.
Blake launched her blade in the air grabbing one of the support beams, Weiss used her glyph to launch Yang and her up to the beams.
The girls hid up their while Ricky turned the ground to rubble, The girls were trying to make a plan of attack in the mean time.
But then Joslin divebombed towards them and released Manuel from her grip, Manuel used his force to tackle Weiss off the support beams and they heading for the floor.
As soon as Ricky saw Manuel falling he stopped firing and started to change his weapon back into a hammer, the girls had were surprised by the attack.
Blake then felt a gush of wind at her back and turned herself and swung backwards, her sword had made contact with Joslin's shield but the momentum Joslin was coming in sent her and Blake to the floor.
Yang and Ruby were the only ones left on the beam but they couldn't stay up here forever, Ruby jumped down first and as she fell Ricky charged at her.
Their wasn't much she could do in the air so she raised Crescent Rose to block the incoming attack, but Ricky strenght sent her flying to the wall.
It wasn't anything that powerful enough but still enough to get Yang mad, she jumped down and and charged up a attack.
Ricky jumped back and she decimated the ground around her, she stood up and an enormous amount of heat radiated from her.
She reloaded her gauntlet and prepared for another charge attack, for Ricky this is simple to counter but something in his chest made him feel like he was drowning.
She charged at him until she was within striking range and then she planted her foot down, Ricky reacted quicker than he should of.
He was supposed to swing Vulcan lightly, but his little effort swing turned into a crushing blow that sent Yang flying without laying a finger on Ricky.
Ricky was now swinging trying to control the swing again, and for some reason his semblance was activated and Vulcan flew out of his hand and landed next to Yang, who was recovering from the blow.
Ricky was now weaponless, but he took a confident boxer stance using his arms as a shield, Yang looked at Ricky and when she blinked her eyes turned a crimson color.
The very shook the core of Ricky was scared he started to back off taking steps back, he'd seen those eyes once and they belonged to his brother Anthony.
When the kids saw Ricky backing up they looked and all of them grew cold and scared like him, except Anthony who looked both confused and happy.
Yang grabbed Vulcan and attempted to lift it but it didn't budge, Ricky felt a little relaxed at this "Hey, no one can lift that hammer!" Ricky shouted to Yang.
"It designed to add weight to itself the farther it is from me." Yang ignored him and was using to hands to try and lift it.
Her body began to flicker with flame, and she began to lift it slowly and she let it rest on her shoulder.
She gripped Vulcan and stormed towards Ricky like a burning tempest, everything that couldn't of been possible she was able to do by herself.
Ricky was slammed in the chest shattering his chestplate and barreling over to a different fight.
Manuel jumped over Ricky and continued to advance on Weiss, she was able to keep him at a distance but was unable to do any damage to him.
He dodged every attack but they seem to be at equal, Manuel was fed up with not being able to do any damage but he felt slowly like if his body was surrounded by Jello.
He switched one of his swords into gun form and Weiss had used the same time to load her revolver.
They stood a fair distance away from each other at a stand off not making a move, it didn't last very long as Manuel was the one to make the first move.
He fired and Weiss shot her dust to the floor and created a ice wall protecting her from the bullets.
She loaded it again and backed away from the ice and looked around the edges to see where he'd try to strike from.
Then Manuel stormed through the ice shatter it giving him cover and spraying ice shards and crystals at Weiss.
When the ice settled they were at another standoff Manuel raised his other hand and slowly reached to his belt.
He lowered his gun to where it was pointing at her feet and she lowered her defences to, he lifted his dust capsule which was already open and showed the contents.
The water and ice dust crystals were all gone even though he'd never even touch one.
The realization hit her as she looked at the ground and fired Perseus breaking a crystal setting off a chain reaction of dust.
Manuel looked upon the glacier he created and turned away from it with a grin, but behind him was a very pissed off Schnee.
He lifted his gun but Weiss was faster to the draw and fired a red crystal surrounding Manuel in a pillar of fire.
Weiss looked into the fire with a cold glare and a pleased grin, and when the fire died down Manuel stood their unaffected by the flames.
"Using fire against a reptile will get you no where." Manuel said as he walked towards her.
Weiss was fed up with being made fun of by this faunus and she quick stepped to him and punched him in the gut.
Manuel fell to the floor, the punch in the gut set something off and now he felt like needles were growing in him.
Weiss looked at how they were able to beat everyone quicker than last time and she saw Blake still fighting Joslin.
Joslin was using her spear so she could fight in the air and have an advantage against Blake's ground speed.
Blake was getting sick of this game of cat and mouse, it was nothing but dodging and blocking between the both of them.
Blake wanted to end this soon and she thought of the perfect plan, she charged against Joslin again who simply pointed her spear towards Blakes chest.
But Blake didn't falter from her plan she charged against the spear and before it pierced her she used her clone to take the spear and vaulted over the clone.
Joslin was too late to see the attack coming and she was hit with full force that sent her tumbling to ground.
When they came to a full stop Joslin was on her back looking at Blake who had her hand on Joslins throat, not tight of course but still in a threatening demeanor.
Joslin opened her mouth and called at her like a raven would, and unintentionally Blake responded with a hiss as she arched her back and tightened her grip.
'All the kids taken out again, how pathetic' Ebony said 'It seems something is protecting them from everything fatal...' Ivory said interested, then it dawned on the both of them and they looked at Anthony.
He didn't move as the girls got closer to him with their weapons they made sure Anthony couldn't move.
Though his eyes were closed he felt heard a long skipping sound behind him indicating someones weapon was behind him.
He heard someones soft breath behind him and felt to blade pressed against his throat, he thought it must be Blake since she was the only one that dual wielded.
Then he heard clicking and felt the tip of a sword pressed against his chest, then he opened his eyes and saw what he guessed.
to his left Ruby had Crescent Rose pressed against my lower right ribs, in front of him was Weiss with Myrtenaster pointed at his chest and a loaded purple dust.
To his right was Yang with a new clip of shotgun shells and a stance Ready to knock him down, her eye weren't red now the were their normal violent but her face said she was still pissed.
he couldn't see behind him but looking down the weapons told him everything Gambol Shroud and the sheathe were pointed at him.
"You guys think you really won?" Anthony using his best villain voice "At any point when you beat my siblings did they say 'I give up' or something like that?"
They remembered that rule of the fight and as they looked the kids were getting back up and preparing for another round "My siblings have been holding themselves back and now you'll see what the Moore family can do."
Manuel's entire body was glowing green and yellow and all the aura he lost in his previous fight was restored as it started to increase to its full potential creating a light show.
Ricky's body was encased in blue aura like armor and everything about him was as restoring itself and he picked up Vulcan and readied himself.
Joslin's red cardinal wing was burning with a rainbow of colors and her eyes and mouth lit the room with a light red light.
Then it all disappeared and the kids stood their, but what surprised everyone including the boys was Joslin didn't have an ounce of aura during the whole fight, but even as they looked at the aura board she was back with all of her aura and then some.
'Now this isn't gonna be a fight of battle skills,' Anthony thought 'This is gonna be a fight of semblance...'
