Hello everyone, is it april already? Huh time flies when you're busy I suppose. Anyways this is Volume 3, so be prepared for fights, info dumps, and the canon cast. Truely a combination you had no idea would be speeding towards you at the moment. BTW if you haven't heard it already there is an awesome (non-canon) recording of Miles Luna and Jen Brown, as Jaune Arc and Pyrrha Nikos respectfully, singing "You are my Sunshine" and if you haven't heard it you need to, trust me it is great. Anyways enjoy.
I do not own RWBY or anything else that happens to be in this story.

Round One
Evan
Evan's fist flew through the air hitting his opponents face with enough force to throw him from the edge of the arena, above their fighting teams, and into the wall.
"And it seems Quan Tegal from Mystrals Team PRQR is out by aura, ring out, and knockout." came the droning voice of their Grimm studies professor.
"Ah yes, Mr. Thorn's strength is quite marvelous isn't it." the other voice said, followed by sips of the man's coffee.
"Yes, way it reminds me of my physical shape back in my…" Evan ignored the rest of the man's speech and return to the battle at hand, only to stay back as his team was handling everything spectacularly.
Kevin
His opponent was a little trickier than Evan's. She had already caught him in her repeating illusions twice in their short fight, and he felt stupid for swinging at nothing for a few minutes.
He gripped his sword tighter before taking another look at his opponent. She was short, shorter then even Neo, standing at 4'5" without and 4'8" with heels, pink bob cut hair, and white eyes. Her outfit was mostly white and pink with a white blouse with gold rings making a belt around her waist, pink leggings, and her height altering white high heels.
She swung around her pink polka-dotted white umbrella, and fired a round from said umbrella.
He swung his blade, batting away the round, and rushed her. In the team it was clear who specialized in what. Shura had the most aura, NIco's skill with his blades greater than his peers, Evan's strength and Endurance unmatched, but what did Kevin have? Speed. He was the fastest amongst his fellow students, and with this speed he appeared behind his opponent and delivered a wide swing.
Her eyes grew wide at the sudden appearance of her opponent's shadow and ducked to avoid the blow. She then quickly put difference between them and checked her rounds. That was when he struck again, this time he kept swinging his blade in arcs of pure destructive cutting power.
She didn't expect to be attacked so soon, and as a result hastily unfolded her umbrella. It took a few hits before being batted aside and her aura being drained from the nonstop cuts.
"Ah, and it seems Patty Mayon is out by aura. Did you see that Barty?"
"Yes, Mr. Snakeroot's swordwork." sips ensued, "It seems his style is made to use a weapons momentum to cause untold damage, but it would be useful if his blade was heavier."
"Why that style reminds me of a fellow I met back in my twenties. Although he WAS wielding a giant, heavy blade."
"Yes, yes, you and miss Rose can bond over your love for weapons latter?" to which a loud NOOO! Rang through the stadium.
Kevin just chuckled at their dynamic before walking to Evan, who was now sitting on a rock shuffling a deck of cards and dealt three piles.
Nico
Like Kevin his opponent was a little annoying. His own opponent was a tan male with sandy blonde hair and eyes of the same color. His loose, cream colored pants and leather sandals made him look a bit like an egyptian thief, but the yellow shackles made him think of a genie.
They each made their way to the other before two wakizashi meet two Khopesh, the wakizashi steel colored metal standing out against the opponents own dark orange and red metal.
His opponent grinned before his red blade caught ablaze and he pressed his advantage. Nico let him press before releasing the bladelock and sending his opponent stumbling forward into the pommel of his own weapon.
"And their goes Ra Ozymandias by knockout. So Barty do you think Team PRQR ever stood a chance?"
"Well Peter, I would say not to count them out yet. But I do believe if they had faced any other freshman team they would have a much higher probability of winning."
"But you didn't answer my question, do you think they ever stood a chance."
*sigh* "No."
Nico then joined his other two teammates at the makeshift table and started playing poker.
Shura
Unlike the others who kept fighting their opponents in the rocky biome, his opponent ran into the forest and assumed he would win. How wrong he was.
The first thing he tried was binding him in vines, and he then decided to burn it all. Say what you will about the impracticality of his duster, but when he wants to burn something it burns. He continued burning down the forest not paying any attention to the spectators as he did so, until the whole forest was nothing but ashes and he got a good look at his opponent for the first time. And he looked back with his single red eye as his other was covered by a black eyepatch
His bright red hair came to his shoulders and also made a goatee. His outfit consisted mostly of dark green with the only exceptions being his brown boots and light green muscle shirt. Other than those he wore pants, a trench coat, and a cowboy hat.
He then lifted his bow and fired a light orange tipped arrow. Shura caught the arrow and expected it before it blew up in his face and drained some of his aura. He then looked up to see a sky full of the same type of arrow before his world was rocked by explosions.
Feeling confident the robin hood guy turned to help his, now out, team when Shura's glaive flew threw the air and cut the top off his bow.
"We're not finished yet." Shura said from the smoke and his opponent's wide-eyed face looked at the board to see his teammates out of the game and not only was his opponent only at halfway, but he was pissed.
His last memory before he awoke in the infirmary was of a flaming fist aimed at his face.
Shura raise a brow at the lack of commentary to his win until he heard what they were talking about.
"And Evan folds, what do you think the other two have Barty?"
"I think we are about to find out as mister Snakeroot shows his cards. It's a straight flush! He's reaching for his money, but it seems mister Bengal isn't finish as he shows his out cards. My word!"
"WE HAVE A WINNER! BY ROYAL FLUSH NICO BENGAL! On a side note it seems Rend Green is out by aura and knockout."
Shura, now covered in ash, made his way to a now anime crying Kevin, a eleived Evan, and a smiling Nico.
"So, you finish your fight." tick mark, "And instead of helping me." another mark, "You decide to play poker!" and with the final tick mark in place he grabbed the rock and threw it across the arena.
Evan was the first to get over his surprise, "Umm, would you still be mad if we go o an all you can eat banana split buffet?" he says while putting his arm around Shura before guiding him towards said buffet.
"My money!"
"Oh hush you have over 100 times that in the bank."
"Fuck you Evan."
"Kevin-san, may I suggest you getting off the floor." and like that it turned back into a normal day for their team.
After Team JNPR fight
"Will Teams STEL and LVDR please make their way to the arena."
They saw Solomon down in the arena along with his own team. They looked up at the screens for their names. The one with lilac hair in a vikings haircut and amber eyes was Tyston Suln, Ethan Brown had grey eyes and a forest green buzz cut, and the final member of the team was Luke Lambert who had a blonde mohawk and blue eyes.
Looking at their opponents screens they saw Leia Sky with blue eyes and brown hair past her shoulders, Violet Iskander with violet eyes and long black hair, Doras Lestrange with pink eyes and hair that was put into a bob, the final member of their team was Regalia Black who had emerald green eyes and red hair put into a braid.
They then looked down to try and get a better look at their clothes as they hadn't seen them through their stay at beacon. Tyston was extremely ripped but only standing about 5'7" with tan skin wearing only purple pants, black boots, and a black belt holding dual single bladed axes. Ethan, on the other hand, was thin, pale, amd short (At 5'2") wearing a brown captain's coat, a tight green shirt, brown khakis, brown sailor boots, and dual cutlasses on his waist. Luke Lambert was a little shorter than Tyston and he too was thin with fair skin and was wearing a sleeveless black hoodie, torn jeans, black and white running shoes, black fingerless gloves, and dual uzi's hanging on his thighs.
Leia stood about 5'4" with fair skin and a lean frame wearing a white short jacket over a black tank top, white pants, and black thigh high boots with an assault rifle strapped to her back. Violet was about an inch shorter with extremely tan skin, a lean frame, and hair down to her waist, she was wearing a red hakama, a black sports bra, straw sandals, gigai shocks, a red scarf covering her mouth that goes down to her waist with strings on the end, and a fanged blade on her back (think Zabimaru from bleach (Shikai)). Doras stood about 5'6" with fair skin and a lean frame wearing a black martial arts uniform including the belt. And Regalia was even shorter than Violet with tan skin, a petite frame, and her braid stopping about mid-back, she was wearing a green cape with two black crossed arrows on the back, a green tank top, brown pants, brown hiking boots, a quiver on her back, and dual sabers on her sides.
"And it seams the random generator has selected the city and wasteland biomes." came Ports voice as the two teams collide. The teams soon split apart to battle their own opponents.
"This should be interesting." the green said before taking a swig and focusing entirely on the fights.
Leia VS Luke
The two ran off deep into the city biome taking shots at each other only to either miss or for the others aura to take the hit. Eventually they got to an area that they each stopped and attempted to fill the other with holes.
They both took out a big part of the others aura before they both ran out of rounds and as Luke attempted to reload behind cover, Leia's rifle transformed into a guan dao. She leaped towards his hiding place and as he finished, she cut his cover and would have gotten him if he hadn't teleported behind her and taken a shot at her head that took her aura to the red. His aura wasn't doing much better so he decided to head back towards the others when Tyston came from nowhere and slammed into him, knocking his aura into the red and sending them out of the arena.
Dorus VS Tyston
His first attack was meant to take her out quickly but just had him thrown into the wastelands. She then came out from the air and brought her heel down were he was a few milliseconds before and caused a crater to form.
"Damn girl, how much you weigh?" he asked.
"Well wouldn't you love to know." and a crescent of energy blew from the smoke going to cut him in half if he didn't shoudenly spout bioelectricity and dodge with greater speed than before. He than gripped his axes and using this new speed he charged her again and like last time got thrown across the arena into a double knockout.
"Jerk."
Regalia VS Ethan
Like Leia and Luke they ran into the city biome before coming across a clearing and their blades connected, and their style spoke heavily about who was the better swordsman/woman.
Ethan was allowing the weight to deal the damage while moving quickly, aiming to deal enough damage to knock her aura down while also dodging the elegant stikes of her sabers. She was twisting in and out of his quick, basic strikes while aiming her own stabs and cuts in his many openings, until they both jumped back and Ethan made a motion with his hands before the water pipes broke and the water rushed towards her and when it disappeared she was nowhere to be seen.
Ethan then release control of the water before a arrow came out of one of the widows of the building to his right before the crowd saw her jump from it to another building and firing again. This continued for a few minutes until he collapsed the buildings using the pipes and stood over her.
"Well that was fun." he said before pulling a pistol out of his coat and aimed at her to put her aura into the red, before she put an arrow in between their faces.
"But you forget, I'm the bomb. Deet." and the arrow exploded ending both their runnings in this match.
Violet VS Solomon
Unlike the others they stayed in the center of the arena.
"You know, last time I got that look I got laid." he said after several moments of nothing but gunshots, explosions, and metal on metal.
She just stared at him before bring out her sword.
"You sure you want to do that? You know what happened last time you asked me to spar."
"You know you and your ego can get real annoying, especially if one has to grow up with you." her answer was met by a booming laugh and a, "Yes you have told me that a lot over the last few years, hows Vacuo treating you little cousin?"
"Well at least I'm not feared for being the cousin of the last Vytal Festival champion." she answered while her blade made contact with his bracer, "Ah yes, is it really that bad if I try to gain all the glory I can?"
Before she could answer though Ports voice echoed throughout the arena.
"Well folks looks like this just turned into a two on one as Luke Lambert and Tyston Suln are out by ring out and aura, Ethan Brown and Regalia Black are out by aura and knockout, and Leia Sky is out by Aura."
Hearing this she smirked as her last teammate tried to slam her heel into his head, only to get caught and thrown out the arena.
"And there goes Doras Lestrange by ring out."
Seeing as she was about to lose she unleashed her secret weapon and mid-swing her fang sword turned into a whipsword, but by the time it got to where he was, he was behind her and her aura was in the red.
"And that is Violet Iskandar out by aura."
"Indeed although a little touch and go for a moment the winner is Team STEL."
"Hey Soly." she called as he was walking towards his team, making his stop and turn his head.
"Yes?"
"Good luck."
"How many times do I have to tell you Vi, I don't need luck. Because everything I do, I DO FO GLORY!" he said before striking a pose and shouting with the crowd of his fans, causing her to smile and head toward her team. What neither of them knew was this would be the last time they would see one of the two alive as a figure followed his target ready to make sure he took them down. After all what good is revenge if his ultimate goal wouldn't fight him without cause?
