Rhomson and Niklaus were in their dorm room enjoying the moment the following day. It was Saturday which meant no classes. Both wore their pajamas with Niklaus with black ones and Rhomson with red ones. Niklaus was reading a book with a blank cover with a smile on his face. Rhomson was playing a video game, and neither of them had a care in the world.

"Now this is how you enjoy a Saturday," Niklaus said with a relaxed tone.

"I agree with you there," Rhomson replied.

"Oh I got a call from Mom earlier today when you were showering," Niklaus said. "She says hi and sends her love."

"We really should go and visit Mom and Dad soon," said Rhomson. "Since they live right in Vale so it won't take long to get there."

Niklaus shook his head. "It hasn't been that long. We saw them last week when we went to our Uncle's restaurant."

"I will never understand why he opened that restaurant," Rhomson said while focusing on his game.

"He says it is a hobby," Niklaus stated.

"Some hobby that is," said Rhomson.

The door to the room opened and Chloe walked in wearing her battle gear. "Are you two still in your pjs?"

Rhomson paused his game and looked over. "Yeah. It's Saturday so we can do whatever we want."

"He is correct," Niklaus agreed.

"Well get geared up and head over to the arena," Chloe ordered. "We have training to do today."

"Are you freaking kidding me?" Rhomson yelled.

"No I am not," Chloe replied with a calm tone.

"We can train after the weekend is over," Niklaus stated.

"No we have a lot of ground to cover so we are putting in the extra time," Chloe explained. "We are going to train today. Get geared up and head to the arena. See you guys in ten."

She closes the door leaving Rhomson and Niklaus in silence.

"Do you think she was serious?" Rhomson asked.

"I think she was," Niklaus spoke with a sigh. He placed a book mark and closed his book. "We should at the very least see what this is all about."

"Oh come on it's obvious," complained Rhomson.

"If we show up, it'll get her off our back and then we can come back here and enjoy the rest of the day off," explained Niklaus.

Silence fell. After a few seconds, Rhomson sighed and saved his game.

Meanwhile, Leon was sitting on the arena floor patiently waiting. After some time he heard footsteps approaching him. It was Chloe. One her back was a black FR F2 sniper rifle with one addition. A blade with the tip underneath the opening of the barrel that ran down all the way to the barrel grip, like a glaive blade.

"So are they coming?" asked Leon.

"If they don't I'm sniping that game console of Rhomson's," she replied.

"If you did that, he would be 'in-console-able,'" Leon said with a smile.

Chloe chuckled. Soon, dressed in their gear, Rhomson and Niklaus arrived carrying their weapons. Rhomson carried a large round shield that had rose colored plate with a red rim. At the center of the shield was a red metal plate that came up to a smooth, rounded point. Niklaus had two revolvers on either side of his outer thighs. The top part of the barrels were bladed with a small hook as the iron sights. The handles were surrounded by sharpened edges in the form of a square.

"Alright we are here," Rhomson said. His voice was rich with impatience.

"Now what is this training you have planned for us?" asked Niklaus impatiently.

"As you know, we need better team work," Chloe stated.

Leon stood up.

"And what do you have in mind?" Niklaus asked.

Rhomson tapped his foot rapidly.

"We are going to show each other our fighting styles so that we can fight better in sync," Chloe stated.

Rhomson laughed loudly. "Now that...is a good joke," he said through his laugh.

Niklaus nodded. "Agreed."

Leon sighed. "She is serious guys."

"Uh...what?" Rhomson asked. "How are you suppose to see anything?"

"Well I could always just look," Leon joked.

"You are blind idiot," Niklaus said with a harsh tone.

Leon over dramatically gasped. "What?" he said sarcastically. "I've never noticed."

"Oh ha ha ha," Rhomson replied. He huffed and turned away.

"Guys please stop it," said Chloe. "Now who would like to go first?"

Rhomson and Niklaus began walking away.

"Oh so they are letting you go first," Leon joked.

"No we are not!" Rhomson shouted.

"Then why are you guys leaving?" Leon asked.

Niklaus's head turned slightly. His hearing is good I'll give him that.

"Because this is a waste of time," Rhomson said. His voice was sharp as a sword.

"Agreed," Niklaus spoke.

"You guys haven't even tried it yet," Chloe argued.

Rhomson and Niklaus stopped and turned toward Chloe and Leon.

"You know how we fight due to you watching us from your sniping perch," Niklaus explained, "and my brother and I know how we fight. What you are suggesting is simply showing off Leon's fighting style when he doesn't have one. Yes he has dust weapons but all he is good for is dodging."

"And the fact that I've dodged all your attacks and got you guys to hit Grimm instead of me doesn't say anything," Leon said sarcastically.

"Actually that says that you are good at running away," said Niklaus.

Leon rubbed his chin. "Last time I checked dodging and running were two different things."

"The point my bro is trying to make is that you have yet to prove yourself to us at all," Rhomson said angrily.

"In a way yes," Niklaus agreed.

The two brothers turned their backs on them and began walking again.

"So why didn't you guys say that you wanted me to prove myself?" asked Leon.

Rhomson and Niklaus stopped in their tracks as the area fell silent.

"...you want to prove yourself to us?" Rhomson asked as he slowly turned around.

Niklaus turned his head slightly.

"Yeah," Leon stated.

Chloe looked at the three of them. So far it seems to be working yet I still wish there was another way.

"There is no way for a blind animal like you to prove yourself to us," Rhomson scoffed.

"How about you and your brother versus me in a two on one match?" Leon asked. He wasn't agitated or annoyed but cheery.

Rhomson on the other hand wasn't so calm. "Are you suggesting that my brother and I need a handicap to beat you?!"

Leon shook his head. "That isn't what I said at all. You want me to prove myself and in order to do so I have to accomplish something difficult. Two on one fight is something difficult."

Silence filled the arena.

"He has a point," Niklaus spoke.

"Are you saying that we agree to this?" asked Rhomson.

"Yes," Niklaus replied.

"Of course if I win that means you two have to go along with whatever training ideas that Chloe has," Leon added.

"What?!" Rhomson shouted.

"If you don't agree then there isn't really a point to us fighting," Leon stated.

Niklaus scoffed under his breath. Pretty smart for an animal.

"So wait...we have something on the line but you don't!" shouted Rhomson.

Leon rubbed his chin. "You are right that isn't fair. So you two pick something for me to put on the line."

"Anything?" asked Niklaus.

Leon nodded. Niklaus pulled Rhomson next to him.

"You've got something in mind?" Rhomson asked quietly.

"Yes," Niklaus whispered. "How do you feel about Leon not saying any more puns?"

Rhomson smiled. "Go on."

While they were discussing this, Alani had come in and sat in the stands. She wore an orange tank top with black skin tight shorts. She also had a long cloth tied around her waist that draped down to her ankles, and covered one leg. On it was a tree with curved, arching branches that reached up towards her waist. Chloe noticed her entranced and waved. Alani waved back.

Soon after she made her entrance, another individual walked into the stands. He was a Faunus with inch long boar tusks coming out from the side of his mouth. His fiery, red short hair stood out the most. He had plain green eyes and wore the Beacon uniform.

"I was wondering why you came here on a day off," the Faunus said with a polite tone.

"Hi there Jasper," Alani greeted him. "And why are you wearing the school uniform today?"

"Well I needed to wash my clothes after Dazz spilled juice on them," Jasper replied. "This was the only thing that was spared. Dennie is helping her clean up the mess."

"Well at least you have something to wear," Alani replied.

"So what kind of trouble are the two biggots causing now?" Jasper asked.

Back on the ground, Leon and Chloe waited for Rhomson and Niklaus to finish their talk. Leon could hear every word. Soon, Rhomson and Niklaus broke their huddle.

"Alright we know what we want from you," Rhomson said.

Both wore a smug smile.

"No more puns for the rest of your time here at Beacon," Niklaus stated.

The area fell silent. Chloe shifted her stance slightly. No more puns from Leon? She kept up a neutral face.

"Done," Leon said with a smile. He removes his bandanna around his eyes and uses it to tie his hair into a pony tail. "I guess you guys don't like how 'punny' I am."

Chloe smiled.

Niklaus, on the other hand, glared at Leon. I'm going to enjoy this.

"We will be using standard rules," Chloe said firmly. "If aura goes into the red, you are out as well as getting knocked out of the ring."

"Agreed," Niklaus stated.

Back up in the stands, Alani and Jasper watched carefully.

"They don't think that they will lose," Alani said. Her voice had a hint of anger in it.

"Yes but that will be the downfall of those biggots," Jasper said quietly. It was subtle yet a creepy tone could be heard.

"What?" asked Alani.

Jasper shook his head. "I said that will be their downfall," he spoke with his normal tone.

On the ground, Leon was doing some stretches to get ready to fight. Chloe walked up to him.

"Are you sure about this?" she asked.

"I am," Leon replied.

"Just...be careful," Chloe said softly.

A hint of worry was there. Leon picked that up and smiled. "I will."

Chloe nodded and made her way to the stands. Once up there, she made her way over to Alani and noticed Jasper half way through.

"Hello Jasper...why are you wearing the school uniform on a weekend?" asked Chloe.

"Wardrobe malfunction," Jasper replied.

Back on the ground, Leon continued to do his stretches while Niklaus and Rhomson were talking quietly.

"This won't take long," Rhomson said quietly.

"Agreed but we can make it last longer by having a bit of fun," Niklaus suggested in a whisper.

Rhomson smiled. "I like the way you think Bro."

Leon stretched his back and shook his arms. "Alright shall we get started?"

His arm braces formed into gauntlets. Inside each hand guard was a grip for him to use. On top, was a silver ring with numbers on it. Leon rotated both to one and the circle pad glowed. A light blue single claw emerged. It had a reach of one foot and three quarters of another foot.

Niklaus drew his revolvers. The bladed top folded up and straightened. The handles snapped back to form two hook swords. He's only ever used that one in front of us but he has more.

Rhomson cracked his neck. I wonder how long we can make this last? He examined his shield and smiled. He then took a battle stance. He signaled to Niklaus to go around behind him.

"You know I got to admit that this was a good cause to get me away from my game," Rhomson stated.

"Oh? You must be close to the end by this point," Leon replied.

Niklaus started moving silently around Leon. Leon's ear twitched at the faint sound. He sent out an aura wave only he could see. It outlined all around him in the circle arena and saw Niklaus trying to move around behind him. The outlines vanished after four seconds and his world once again became blank.

"Yeah I am," Rhomson continued, "and I was peeved that Chloe interrupted our day off yet now I think it was worth it."

"Oh because I'll be less 'punny' when this is over?" Leon asked with a smile.

Chloe gave a small chuckle while Rhomson's eyebrow twitched. Niklaus was now behind Leon and was twenty-five feet away. He nodded to Rhomson.

"That is the last pun you will make while at this school," Rhomson said with a grim tone.

He rushed at Leon. Leon jumped back toward Niklaus who was ready to slash him. Leon slashed the ground and ice covered the top of a small patch. Rhomson smirked and was ready to step over the patch. Yet Leon leaped toward Rhomson and over him. Rhomson could only watch as Leon executed a jump right before he arrived. He slipped on the patch of ice and stumbled into Niklaus who had not taken his eyes off of Leon.

Rhomson growled. What the hell?!

Niklaus shook his head. How did he do that?!

Leon turned toward them. " 'Icy' what you tried to do there."

Alani and Chloe laughed while Jasper just chuckled. Rhomson grew furious and charged again. His aura turned into crystal around his entire body. This slowed him down in his charge which gave Leon plenty of time to dodge. Niklaus rushed at him while he was mid air. Leon used his aura wave again to see his attack. He blocked each sword with his claws, stomped on his face, and sent Niklaus flying back a ways. Rhomson turned around and charged again. Leon waited. His ear twitched from the loud steps. Once Rhomson was close enough, Leon jumped into the air and over him.

While airborne he was shot and landed on his side. He quickly got back up and looked over at Niklaus with his aura wave. His hook swords had changed into revolvers.

Rhomson deactivated his crystal aura and pointed his shield at Leon. Two thirds of the shield extended to the sides and had clear lines that reached towards the center. The middle plate flipped up to reveal a bullet clip in the center. The lines reached back a bit before snapping forward, causing a bullet to fly out of the shield. He fired more at Leon who began dodging the shots. Niklaus turned his swords back into revolvers and fired along side his brother.

Leon smiled. Keeping me at a distance.

He rotated the ring inside his weapon to number two. The single ice claw vanished and was replaced with two green claws on the far sides of the gauntlet. Each were a foot and a half long and had a similar curve to the ice claw.

Niklaus blinked. Now we finally get to see his new claws.

Rhomson smiled. That won't help him at this range.

Rhomson and Niklaus fired again from the opposite side of the field. Leon jumped and slashed behind him. A wind slash launched him forward toward the brothers at high speeds. Rhomson and Niklaus quickly adjusted their aim and fired again. Leon quickly slashed behind him again to gain more speed and dodged the bullets. He landed between them and spin slashed the brothers. Both were hit and sent flying off in opposite directions. Leon turned his attention to Rhomson and flew at him like before. Rhomson turned crystal again and turned his shield back to its former state. Leon slashed and flew right back at Niklaus.

Niklaus had his swords ready for an attack. Leon used his aura wave to witness the ambush. He slashed the ground and sent himself flying into the air. He rotated the rings to three and the two green claws were replaced by three, arching curved red claws each a foot and a half long. Gravity took over and Leon descended toward Niklaus. Their weapons clashed and were locked. However, gravity added to Leon's force and broke through Niklaus's guard. Leon slashed him several times. Niklaus flew back and landed on his back.

Up in the stands, Chloe watched her Scroll as Niklaus's aura went into the red. "Niklaus is out of the battle."

Rhomson couldn't believe what he had just heard. "What?!" he shouted.

Niklaus picked himself up and glared at Leon. His back was to Niklaus and he was staring in Rhomson's general location.

"Don't be too upset that I 'clawed' my way out," Leon said with a grin.

Rhomson grew furious at Leon. "How?! How is it possible that we are losing to a blind animal?!"

Jasper gritted his teeth up in the stands. Yet Leon didn't respond in any way negatively. Niklaus sheathed his swords on his back and slowly walked up to the stands. He sat alone and away from the others.

"FINISH HIM QUICKLY BROTHER!" he cheered.

"I will!" Rhomson shouted back.

Rhomson changed his shield into his crossbow and fired. Leon quickly dodged it and made his way toward Rhomson. He changed his weapon back to the shield and charged right back. Leon shifted to the side and slashed. Rhomson blocked it and tried to counter with a bash yet missed. Leon jumped over him and slashed again only for the same result as the first attack. Rhomson thought ahead where he was going to land and shifted to his crystal state. He bashed his shield into Leon and sent him flying back.

Chloe watched her Scroll as Leon's aura went from near full to yellow in one hit. Not good.

Leon quickly recovered and landed on his feet, taking in deep breaths.

Rhomson changed back to his normal state. I'm running low so I have to time my next counter.

Niklaus looked at his Scroll to see Rhomson's aura was nearing the red. Yet Leon was getting there too.

Chloe's hands squeezed tightly on each other. He's got this.

Leon smiled and rushed at Rhomson, much to everyone's surprise.

Rhomson chuckled. He made it easy at least.

He rushed back at Leon. The two collided and Rhomson pushed him back fiercely. Leon was knocked off balance and Rhomson quickly switched to his crystal state to slam his shield into Leon. Leon quickly turned the ring in his right hand to two and his green claws replaced the red one on his right only. He slashed forward and flew back, and avoided Rhomson's attack. Rhomson quickly turned off his crystal aura, and saw Leon slashed behind himself. Leon flew at high speeds towards him and slashed him with his red claw. Rhomson tried to block but misread the attack and was hit. His aura fell to red as he growled in anger.

"That's it!" Chloe shouted. "Rhomson is also out! Therefore, the winner of this fight is Leon!"

Leon sighed in relief as he put his claws away and his gauntlets changed back into bracers. Alani cheered loudly while Jasper just smiled. Rhomson fell to his knees as Chloe ran up to Leon making sure he was alright.

Niklaus walked over towards his brother and hung his head with him. "We lost."

"I know," Rhomson replied.

They looked over at Leon and Chloe who were chatting a bit. Rhomson stood up with his head low and sighed.

Chloe turned her attention to them. "You lost so you know what this means."

"Yes," said Niklaus.

Rhomson nodded.

"You...aren't going to put up a fight?" Chloe asked with hesitation. "I thought you two would be pissed and refused to uphold your end of the deal."

"We may not seem like it to you Chloe but we honor our deals," Rhomson barked.

"He is right," Niklaus stated. "When does the training begin?"

"...tomorrow," she replied. "Get some rest and take it easy."

She turned to leave with Leon.

"Wait!" Rhomson called out.

Leon stopped with Chloe.

"How did you beat us?!" Rhomson pleaded. "How?!"

"It's really very simple," Leon replied.

Niklaus and Rhomson watched him, waiting for an answer.

"It's because you 'pun-derestimated' me," Leon said with a goofy smile.

Chloe laughed while Rhomson shouted angrily towards the sky.

Meanwhile in Ozpin's office, he worked on some paperwork and checking the news. When he heard a loud, angry shout coming from the arena.

A small smile cracked on his face. Sounds like things are going well.
