Summary/Disclaimer: Time for another chapter of The Dragon and her rook. Enjoy the 1300- word chapter. I don't own RWBY, Monty Oum, and Rooster Teeth do.
(Vale, Amity Colosseum, Round 1.)
Yang clicked her arm into place as she heard someone clear their throat.
"It looks great, you painted it Yellow," Skyler said, Yang turned to look at him as he crossed his arms.
His White Jacket had been swapped for a different one with gold lines and buttons on it. There were glints of gold in it.
His shirt under that was now reversed colors and had the Atlas Symbol in the upper left corner.
He also wore White and Goldish combat boots and blue gloves with white on the fingertips. His hair was also spiky with hints of Blue in it.
"Wow, you get all gussied up for the tournament?" Yang asked as Skyler chuckled and rolled his eyes.
Yang's Tan jacket was now replaced by one that was also orange and gold, she also wore an orange crop top under this while her coat had goldish tails.
She also now wore a brown belt with 2 brown pieces of some sort of material that covered her left hip and the other her right, this was also with blackish-brown pants.
She also now wore knee-high brown boots with gold caps on the heel and toe with gold zippers. She had black fingerless gloves with brown cuffs on her mid forearms and a purple bandanna on her left knee. She flexed her yellow and black arm as the shotgun barrel popped out of the arm.
"This is coming from the girl who entirely reinvented herself… I'm still working on your other gauntlet, and I'll work on your current one after this." Skyler said, Yang, smiled before the loudspeaker went off.
"Yang Xiao Long, please come to the arena for the first match!" It said, Skyler chuckled.
"I have to get back to the Blizzard. You knock them dead, firefly… I'll be watching from the bridge." Skyler said, he turned to walk away.
"Hey, Sky?" Yang said, Skyler turned.
"Yeah?" He asked as Yang hugged him and kissed him on the cheek.
"Thanks for the new arm… Now, I have a show to put on." Yang joked as she walked out the door.
Skyler felt where she kissed him and smiled before he walked outside where an Atlesian Dropship was waiting.
It flew towards Blizzard which floated among the clouds, it settled into the hanger where Skyler marched to the bridge and took a seat in the bridge chair.
He popped open his scroll while the others were busy watching screens.
Skyler watched the fight, they were fighting team ABRN, a team from Mistral.
This should be interesting, he watched Yang leap into the air and fire a shot from her left gauntlet at Arslan Altan who blocked it and tried a palm strike from her right hand.
Yang spun before the butterfly kicked her back, Blake fired shot after shot at Reese Chloris before she turned and tossed her weapon in its Kusarigama form.
Reese slammed into the ribbon as she rounded the corner, Blake was sent flying from a strike from Bolin Hori's staff. A glyph from Weiss tossed him into Nadir Shiko who tried to blast Ruby as she sped around the arena.
"It looks like a pretty good match for RWBY," Bran said, Skyler nodded and continued watching.
Yang turned and sent a shot at Arslan who was sent skidding back, she flipped at Arslan and slammed her fist into the ground, cracking it.
Arslan kicked Yang back before she rushed back in, she swung her right arm in a hammerfist which slammed Arslan into a sheet of rock.
It shattered before Yang cracked her other arm, Skyler could also hear the announcers which were Professor Port and Oobleck.
"Oh, it seems Ms. Xiao Long is packing an even bigger punch with her new arm!" Professor Port said as Nadir was sent skidding into Bolin by a slash from Weiss before Reese slammed into her.
"Yes, and I've heard from our sources her new arm was provided to her by none other than Atlesian Commando, Skyler Azur. I suspect Captain Azur is watching this match now from one of the many Atlesian Cruisers surrounding the arena." Professor Oobleck put in.
"He's only the best boyfriend in the world!" Yang yelled before a punch from Arslan sent her rolling back.
"Captain, you seem to have made an impression on her," Bran said with a smirk as Skyler rolled his eyes.
"Mind the ship, Lieutenant, we are still guarding the stadium. "Skyler ordered, he couldn't stop a small smirk from tugging at his face. Nadir was sent out by Ruby who slammed into him with the shaft of her scythe, tossing him out of the arena.
"Oh, and Team RWBY takes the lead!" Professor Port said as Weiss blocked a swing from Bolin before Reese slammed into her back with her hoverboard, sending her tumbling and draining her aura.
"Sir, General Ironwood wants a word after this fight…. Wait, he means tomorrow, my bad." Bran reported as Skyler grunted in response.
"This fight is getting intense ladies and gentlemen, and with only 5 minutes left!" Oobleck yelled as Reese tried to flip and transform her hoverboard into pistols to fire at Yang.
She slid on ice Weiss created and slid towards the edge. Yang turned only to be kicked and she fired a round from her cybernetic arm.
It slammed into Reese and tossed her into the air, Ruby fired a shot at her before Bolin sent her flying into a dirt dune as Reese lost her Aura and fell out of the arena when she came down hard.
"Oh, and another member of team ARBN is down! It seems the training team RWBY has been putting in is paying off!" Port yelled as Bolin made a break for it, he managed to knock down Blake and drain part of her Aura
Ruby rushed after him as Bolin turned and swung at her, she mixed with an overhead swing before Bolin clipped her with a hit to the chest which knocked her down the dune.
Blake slammed feet first into him and knocked him down, he went to get up before Weiss flipped him to the side with a Glyph. He slid out of the arena.
This left Yang and Arslan, Yang threw another punch with her regular arm and then brought up her knee as the punch grazed Arslan. Arslan tried to crane-kick Yang who leaned back and punched at her with her left hand.
Arslan caught it, Yang grinned and punched with her cybernetic arm which slugged Arslan in the chest, staggering her.
Yang fired from her cybernetic arm and Arslan flipped out of the arena.
Yang blew the smoke off her new arm and winked at the camera.
Skyler grinned and closed his scroll before he put it in his pocket, he turned and stood up from his seat.
"You have the ship, Lieutenant. I have to go see RWBY and them." Skyler stated, Bran nodded as Skyler walked out of the room, Skyler looked over his shoulder before he walked towards the hanger.
He would have to get Yang's other gauntlet before he could work on them both.
He also had to congratulate his girlfriend.
He smiled at this.
Author notes
Phew, another chapter is done! Yes, I know the fight was short and all that, next fight will be better, big fights aren't my thing… I also want to point out that Yang is wearing her season 5-6 outfit and Skyler will be wearing something even newer next chapter. The next chapter will be next Saturday and will take place before Brawl in the Family. Until then, Lighting Wolf out!
