-3rd person-

After Oobleck's class, Lapis left the room with her teammates, Jaune, Blake, and Pyrrha.

Once outside the classroom, they walked down the hall.

"LAZULI!" Carson called and the silver eyed Faunus sighed.


-Lapis-

I turn around and see Cardin and his team approaching. Blake, Jaune, Pyrrha, and my team see them as well, decked out in their combat gear like the seven of us.

"You may be off the hook with Ozpin, but not me." Cardin says.

"Save it for the tournament, Winchester. Otherwise, you'll wake up long after the Festival has concluded." I say.

"That goes double for your goon squad." Ember says.

He and his cronies draw their weapons so me and my team answer in kind by drawing ours. A crowd begins to form but Blake, Jaune, and Pyrrha serve as crowd control.

"What is going on here?" Ironwood asks as he walks to us and sees what's about to happen. "If you and your team insist on fighting Lapis and her team, Mr. Winchester, I suggest taking this outside."

"I have a better idea, General." I say. "My team and I have some team attacks we've been meaning to test out. So I say we take this to Goodwitch's sparring classroom to provide a demonstration of what my team can do."

I look at the General then see Ozpin and Glynda walking to us.

"Now, that sounds like an interesting idea, Miss Lazuli." Ozpin says. "And as it so happens, it can be arranged."

With that, all students from the Four schools head for the amphitheater, Blake and Pyrrha sending a text to their teammates, as well as Team CFVY, Team SSSN, and Team SLVR that they'd see our team attacks soon enough.


-3rd person-

Students gathered in the amphitheater while Team LEMO and Team CRDL were facing each other in their combat gear and weapons ready.

"Begin!" Ozpin said and then the eight charges each other. Lapis blocked a powerful initial attack from Carson then kicked him back. Onyx pinned Russell's daggers before slamming her head against his and sending him stumbling backwards. Ember blocked So he's sword before kicking him in the stomach, causing him to roll backwards. Magenta blocked Sky's axe with her naginata before punching him hard in the face.

Magenta turned to Lapis, who smirked and decided to use their team attacks to quickly end the fight.

"Flying Wolf!" She said/signed.

The raven Faunus smirked then took to the air and flew in a circle before Lapis jumped up and Magenta hooked her hands under her leader's arms and did another lap, Lapis firing lightning Dust rounds from her rifle, stunning Cardin and his team.

"Catfish!" Lapis called out then Ember shot arrow after arrow at the boys then Onyx grinned and charged forward with her sabers and slashed at their opponents several times as Lapis and Magenta landed on the ground and Onyx rejoined her teammates.

"Wildlife!" Lapis called out then fired at Team CRDL's feet and Ember charged forward with her spear and struck the four of them with powerful slashes.

"That all you got, little girls?" Cardin sneered.

"Winged Shark!" Lapis called/signed then Magenta flew a lap before picking up Onyx, doing another lap, dropping the latter behind Team CRDL and the shark Faunus finished off the brutes before the two girls joined their teammates.

Team CRDL was beaten and the students cheered for Team LEMO.

"Let this serve as a demonstration and inspiration for teamwork." Ozpin started, his interpreter translating for Magenta. "Team LEMO haven't been a team long, but in such a short time, they've shown good coordination and a strong bond of trust with each other. This is what all Huntsmen and Huntresses should strive for. Follow their example, and your teams will grow all the stronger." He added.

Afterwards, the students and teachers all left the amphitheater.


-Lapis-

My teammates and I relax in the courtyard with Team RWBY and Team JNPR.

"Those team attacks were awesome!" Ruby says and Blake translates for Magenta, who smiled and looks at Ruby.

"Thanks." She says/signs the turns to me, Ember, and Onyx. "I have an idea for one that involves all of us and is a two-pronged attack."

I tilt my head. "Do tell." I say/sign.

"Hunting Party. Ember and I fire bolts and arrows from the air while you and Onyx attack from the ground with your swords."

I smile. "Nice!" I reply to her.

"Yeah!" Ember and Onyx say.

"Even I have to admit that sounds cool." Jaune says with Pyrrha translating.

I look at Pyrrha. "You know sign language?"

She nods. "My mother made sure of it in case I met someone who is deaf, like Magenta."

I nod back then look at my teammates. "Since everyone needs to be ready for the Tournament, I'll see if I can talk General Ironwood into letting us use some of the Atlesian Knight 130's to practice with until it's our turn to fight." I say/sign and they nod.

"You'll need to be ready too, sis. You face Team SLVR in the morning." Blake says.

I turn to her. "When am I never ready?" I tease.


-3rd person-

The Fall twins were in the room Cinder was given with Mercury and Emerald.

"What did Lazuli do to you?!" Ash asked.

"She blocked my memories of that bitch and her spawn then removed the block a day later. Even after the block was removed, I lost my desire for revenge." Cinder replied.

"So, she made you weak!"

"She didn't! I just don't want to go through with the plan anymore!"

"Then you'll suffer the same fate as everyone here."

Mercury and Emerald watched the tense face off between the sisters, neither one daring to speak as flames appeared in the corners of the twins eyes, Cinder's being orange and Ash's being blue.
