The Few JWLS of Fighters Ch. 11
So I've noticed a pretty stark drop off on reviews. So if you have anything to say, then leave it in the reviews.
Team JWLS was sitting in their seats, trying to fake staying awake for Port's lecture. The rest of the teams were paying attention to the lecture, but JWLS wasn't. They hardly ever payed attention to Grimm studies until the class ended and then they took note of what to read and what the assignments were.
"Now!" Boomed Port. "I believe that we have our champions with us today. Team JWLS?" Team JWLS all looked up at Port and acted like they were paying attention. "I was wondering if you could demonstrate how you work as a unit." They all nodded, but then looked around for a cage.
"Um," said Joan. "Where's the cage?"
"Ah! That is where you will truly demonstrate how well you function. Ozpin gave us special permission. Come class, let's head outside." Team JWLS all looked at each other nervously.
Outside of Beacon
"You have got to be fucking kidding me," said William. "This guy's a mad man. We're all going to get killed." Team JWLS was staring down a Nevermore nest, and they were being told to approach it.
"Show us you're strength," boomed Port. "Show us how to function as a unit." Team JWLS let out a heavy sigh, and walked forward.
"Good luck," called out Ruby.
"We'll need it," grumbled Spartacus.
"We'll deal with this how we dealt with the last one," said Leonidas. The others nodded. The Nevermore started to circle around his nest, and Leonidas bent down and picked up a rock. He threw the rock and managed to hit the Nevermore in the head. It let out an angry caw and fired off several feathers right at Leonidas. The rest of his team were hiding in trees nearby, and only Leonidas was in the open. He raised his shield and the feathers started being reflected back the Nevermore. After a few made contact, the Nevermore started to dive at Leonidas. Once it was close enough, William and Spartacus dove from the trees and Joan rushed out at it's legs, and started to hack away. Leonidas joined her and started to help her. Spartacus focused on getting his net around the wings of the the Nevermore, while William tried to claw his way up the feathers to get to the head. The Nevermore started to take off, and Spartacus tried to work a little faster.
"SPARTY!" Called down William. "KEEP THIS DAMN THING ON THE GROUND!"
"I'M WORKING ON IT!" Called back Spartacus. William finally reached the head, and he saw the ground getting further away from him, and he took a deep breath in. He plunged his targe into it's head to hold himself in place. He raised up his claymore, and took one large swing. He managed to separate the head from the body with one strike.
"JUMP!" William called out. Spartacus didn't disagree and he jumped off of the falling carcass of the Nevermore with William. William let himself go into a diving position, while Spartacus assumed a flying squirrel position. He looked around for a tree, but the Nevermore had taken them into the middle of the clearing.
"This is how I die," mumbled Spartacus. Just before he hit the ground, he felt his momentum slow and then Joan caught him. He looked up in her eyes, and looked over to see William lower his hand.
"Um," he said. Joan just dropped him.
"Leo would of have done it," she said. "But I really wanted to do that." Spartacus picked himself up off the ground, and he could hear Port.
"Marvelous," he boomed. "Absolutely marvelous. You four are true huntsman and a true huntress team. Excellent work. Class is dismissed."
"Good," grumbled William. "Nearly died today, but I did a marvelous job." He felt Leonidas' strong hand on his back.
"At least something happened this Grimm studies," he said.
"Next time, can we face a Boarbatusk, or a Beowolf, or even an Ursa. Not something that flies."
"I'm with you," said Spartacus.
"On the bright side," said Joan. "No readings and no other classes today. We can take a long nap."
"I'm with you little lassy," said William. "A nap sounds great. Right after a hot shower." Team JWLS all started arguing about who would get shower privileges first as they walked to the dorm.
End: Sorry this one was kind of short, but I figured that the Mad King {Ryan's nickname in Achievement Hunter for those of you who don't know} would order the champion team to do something like this. Questions, comments, and feedback are appreciated.
