Sparring time! Part One!
-
Gods... I hate this, but it's better than Port's class
Jaune was complaining to himself as he was equipping his armor.
The students were told to prepare themslves for sparring since Goodwitch will choose at random.
There they were, seated on the bleachers as Miss Goodwitch was in the center of the arena.
"Students! This will be your first sparring class, I expect a clean fight! Anyone caught cheating (i.e hidden weapons not sanctioned and not revealed by/to the professor in advance) will be sent to detention"
The student population in the room all nodded their heads.
Goodwitch sighed "Without further ado, first match will be... "
Everyone was in anticipation of who will fight first, the young reaper Ruby? or the energetic Nora?
Miss Goodwitch was looking at her scroll as it made an randomly generated pair.
Please don't be me please don't be me...Jaune kept asking the heavens.
"Yang Xiao Long of team RWBY"
"Yes! " Yang pumped her fist in the air
"Go sis! " Ruby cheered
"And Pyrrha Nikos of team JNPR! "
Jaune looked over to his side seeing Pyrrha sigh and stand up.
"Goodluck Pyrrha, I'll be cheering for ya" Jaune said with a slight smirk
Pyrrha, smiled Jaune's cheering for me she felt happy about that for some reason and decided she'll try her best.
"Are you really as "Invincible" as they say? " Yang asked in a light and joking manner
"Well, that remains to be seen" Pyrrha answered as she got ready on her fighting stance.
"Ooh feisty, I like it" Yang smashed her fists together and ignited her aura, she also got into he fighting position.
"Both Huntresses in position! Fight! " Goodwitch shouted as if she said it a million times before.
Yang shouted "Catch these hands, Pumpkin Pete! " as she used the recoil from Ember Celica to launch herself toward Pyrrha.
Pyrrha stood her ground and gracefully sidestepped Yang's blow.
Yang wouldn't let this be and followed up with a massive right hook. Pyrrha used her shield to redirect Yang's punch. She then turned and slashed at Yang's back and sent her stumbling forward.
"Nice Dodge! what abou-" Yang looked to see a few blonde locks of hair falling gently to the ground.
"You... " Yang's normally purple eyes turned Scarlet red.
This however didn't phase Pyrrha as she took the offensive.
She isn't in the right state of mind right now... Pyrrha will probably take advantage of that Jaune thought.
Yang charged ahead growling in anger punch after punch, and Pyrrha deflecting each punch back and sending the damage back two fold! Whittling Yang's aura little by little.
Knowing that the exchange would be bad for her in the long run, Yang decided to step back, a tactical retreat if you will.
Pyrrha, however, had no intention of letting up, and started peppering Yang's aura with bullets.
Rubber, of course, they were sparring after all.
Yang's Aura was dipping into the yellow zone as Pyrrha's was still in green
Guess she's a champion for a reason Jaune's thoughts wandered to that time Weiss introduced him to Pyrrha.
She was a lot more bitchy before
Back to the fight, Yang noticing that neither strategies would be beneficial to her decided to throw caution to the wind and rush Pyrrha.
In hopes to overwhelm her.
"Go Yang!" Ruby shouted
"Don't let us down! " Weiss backed
And Blake was reading a book while waving a little "RWBY" flag
"You can do it Pyrrha!!!" Nora shouted as Ren apologized to their other classmates about Nora being loud.
"Go Pyrrha! Kick her ass!" Jaune followed
"Mr. Arc, Language! " Jaune sheepishly laughed as he was scolded by Miss Goodwitch.
This was the turning point for Yang, Just one hit and I'll win! was what Yang was thinking
Too bad Pyrrha already thought of that situation and decided that.
A. She'll let Yang charge and...
B. She'll win by ring out
Which was exactly what happened, since Yang used the same move she did at the beginning of the fight in hopes that it'll work this time.
Pyrrha blocked the punch this time, however, she caught Yang's Arm as she let go of her weapon.
And yanked Yang out of the ring as she jumped over her gracefully.
"Good work miss Nikos, letting miss Xiao Long's anger cloud her head and using her lack of thought as an advantage, is astounding, you may take your seat" Goodwitch praised Pyrrha
"Thank you, miss Goodwitch" Pyrrha thanked the professor.
"And Miss Xiao Long, let it be said that you must not let your anger cloud your thinking, learn to harness that anger and use it as a weapon, you did great against miss Nikos, however you still have much to improve" Miss Goodwitch told Yang
Yang smiled and said "thank you, miss Goodwitch"
"Nice fight Pyrrha" Yang held her hand out for Pyrrha
"Yes, it was quite exhilarating" Pyrrha took her hand and shook it
"and between you and me, I think Vomit boy in the stands over there is impressed!" Yang teased Pyrrha
Wait how???? Pyrrha was dumbstruck as to how Yang knew that.
"Just pulling your leg, but looking at your reaction..." Yang teased the Champion
Pyrrha had a red face on for most of that conversation and decided to go back to Jaune's side.
"Good work Pyrrha, I knew you could do it" Jaune gave Pyrrha a thumbs up
Pyrrha giggled "Thanks Jaune"
Damn she's cute Jaune thought
"Our next and final bout will be... "
I hope it isn't me Jaune begged the heavens for mercy...
"Jaune Arc, leader of team JNPR!"
Suffice it to say that Jaune Arc held a small grudge against the big man in the sky.
Damnit
"And Cardin Winchester, leader of team CRDL"
Jaune didn't know who that was and looked around the room to figure out who it was.
Jaune saw a big kid wearing silver-gray armor with an insignia of a bird, with outstretched wings, who was laughing along with his friends.
The boy smirked at Jaune and gave him a thumbs down.
WAIT A MOMENT! This is that guy who was showing off his muscles back in the hall! Jaune thought
"Go Fearless leader! Break his legs!" Nora shouted
"You can do it Jaune! " Ruby shouted
"Go Jaune" Pyrrha was waving a little Jaune flag as she smiled excitedly
Jaune waved at them as he stepped into the arena
"CARDIN! BEAT HIS FACE IN" a member of Cardin's team shouted
"Haha, no need to tell me! This'll be easy pickins! " Cardin walked down with a prideful air to him
Oh god... he's that type of guy huh? Jaune sighed inwardly as he stood in the arena half-heartedly wishing for a behemoth.
Because in his mind, if it was a behemoth, It was fine if it died.
