Jet got off the Bullhead later then everyone else due to oversleeping. He stretched and heard his back pop. "Whew!" He muttered, feeling much better after that. He looked around, seeing the hole in the courtyard and seeing Aero "YO AERO!" He yelled running over. Aero just manages to turn before getting tackled back into the hole, causing another hole to appear. Ruby and Jaune were forced out of the hole by the force, throwing them through the air. A high pitch scream rang out, as Jaune landed on his back, which cut off the scream and Ruby landed on her feet. Laughter could be heard from the hole, as Aero and Jet climbed out, covered in dust. Aero was smiling, with his arm around Jet's shoulders. Aero saw Ruby helping Jaune up. "Sorry about that, he thought he lost me. the big guy couldn't find his way out of a paper bag without me." Aero called to them before looking around and panicking. "Come on guys we gotta get going!" he said running off, with Jet following him. Ruby and Jaune looked at each other, before looking at their joined hands both of them blush, and Ruby tugged on his hand pulling him along to the courtyard. "Come on or we'll be late!" she urged.
Aero spotted Yang right away, and glanced at Ruby. His smile widened as he zeroed in on Ruby and Jaune's hands. "Well well well, that was quick. I wonder how Yang will take to her baby sister finding someone already." He teased. As Ruby began spluttering and Jaune turned even more red, Aero turned to Jet. "Stay back here, I'll be back for ya." Jet nodded, noticing the look on Aero's face as he looked at Yang. He slapped a hand on Aero's back, and said "Go get 'em Aero." Aero laughed before walking over to Yang, and slided next to her. "Hey." he said easily, as Yang turned to him with a smile. "Waited for me very long?" she caught that he was attempting to flirt. She flipped her hair, and looked him straight in the eyes. "Not too long, but next time don't keep a lady waiting if you want her to notice." She replied, coyly. Aero rolled his eyes. "Next time, make sure you don't leave me to take care of Ruby without telling me how clumsy she is. If you go outside you may see a hole or two." Aero told her in an exasperated voice. "THat wasn't my fault" a voice protested behind them, belonging to Ruby, pouting. Aero crouched down to be at her eye level. "It's okay Ruby, I know it's not. next time Ice Queen has a vial of Dust in her hand, I'll be sure you aren't in the blast zone." He promised with a smile.
Yang was impressed at how Aero was treating Ruby, maybe even find him handsome... Nope not going down that route. Sure he may have flirted with her, but so do countless other boys. All want the same thing, in her pants. He may look good, but he's still a hormonal rage of testosterone. Besides, she already had someone. But he was so distant now. She glanced over, spying him in the front, listening To Ozpin's speech. Emotionless, bland, and not a care in the world. Her heart burned with rage, and she kept herself in check. But she suddenly remembered when she punched Aero so hard his jaw broke. How effortlessly he set it back and the skin had healed. 'Hmm. maybe, just maybe I can see more of that.' Yang mused. She turned to Aero and tapped his shoulder. He turned and raised an eyebrow, asking a question. "You see that guy over there?" She pointed to her boyfriend. "Pick a fight with him. I want to see who's stronger." She smiled sweetly, turning up the sultry look she could give that make any boy melt and do whatever she wanted. Surprisingly it didn't work on Aero, but he considered it. "Hmm, now why should I pick a fight for your amusement?" he teased, but his eyes flashed, letting her know he won't do irrational things just on a whim. There has to be a reason. Ruby piped up "That's Cardin. Yang's boyfriend! he's a meanie." She pouted. Aero crouched down again to talk to Ruby about him. Yang was disturbed to see that Aero wasn't even fazed by the mention that she had a boyfriend. 'Maybe he was just being nice.' her mind suggested. She sighed. "Okay, the that settles it." Aero said, almost muttering. The anger in his voice caught Yang by surprise. 'I really need to stop underestimating this guy.' She thought. He didn't look like much, but it seems there's a lot to learn about Aero Frostmane.
Aero waited until Ozpin was done with his speech, and then approached Glynda. "Hello ms. Goodwitch? I would like to ask for a match. Before the Initiation." He asked, formally and respectfully. Glynda looked at him. "And why would you ask for such a thing." Aero looked her straight in the eye. "My family has been insulted and the only way Frostmane's" He saw a flash of recogniton in her eyes. "Is by a fight to prove my worth. I assume you know our rules?" Glynda sighed. "Yes I do. Honestly you Frostmane's are a bothersome bunch but I have to allow it. Who will your opponent be?" Aero turned and indicated Cardin. "I would like to fight him." Everyone had heard the conversation, and looked to Cardin who sneered. "You think you can fight a Winchester boy?" Aero looked at Cardin with a lack of interest. "Yes, I do. A Winchester is the PERFECT victim." The smile on Aero wasn't normal. It had such sinister energy, even Cardin started to get nervous. "Children, please clear the floor to the sides if you wish to watch. Aero, Cardin, please approach the middle. As they did so, Glynda made a magical barrier around them, giving them plenty of space to fight.
"Any reason that a runt like you would want to lose so badly." Cardin said nastily, not seeing that Aero was calm, staring him down straight in the eyes. "More of a test of the potential that you have." Aero replied coolly, grinning excitedly. He couldn't wait to tear that sneer off his face. Maybe literally. Wait, this is Yang's boyfriend. gotta play it fair for now. But by how he's acting, Aero would have to keep an eye on him after. Maybe be Yang's bodyguard. Huh not a bad idea actually. Aero's thoughts were interrupted by Glynda's shout "BEGIN!" Instantly Cardin hefted his mace and dashed at Aero, faster then he anticipated, but easily dodged. Twisting over Cardin's body as it hit the ground where Aero was standing. Kicking Cardin's back, making him stumble forward into the hole he made in the ground, and tripping. People laughed in the sidelines. Cardin growled as he got back up and stalked forward towards Aero. Making sure to block any ways out of the swing. Aero yawned, and stood in a relaxed pose. "How long are you going to take?" He made a bring it on gesture while acting like sharpening his knifes. Cardin rushed forward and swung his mace to the side this time. Aero made a cross with his knifes and stopped the mace mid swing, as the fire Dust crystal made its explosion, it passed by Aero harmlessly. "So how should i start? rip out the Achilles tendon? maybe break a leg or two." Aero mused, loud enough for Cardin to hear. His eyes widened as Aero stabbed him in the stomach. Cardin jumped back from him and held the wound. 'How did it get past my Aura? why didn't the fight stop yet?' flashed through Cardin's mind. "Ms. Goodwitch, he passed through my Aura and injured me." Cardin complained. Aero's grin got wider. "I guess you should have asked about the rules. The fight can't, and won't stop until either of us has given up or can't fight anymore. As for my weapons, they go through Aura because mine is stronger then yours. Or did you not pay attention in school?"
Cardin was pissed. Not only is this runt taunting him, but because he didn't think the rules would be any different. All he saw was red as he rushed forward, only to regret it. Aero jammed his foot forward right where the ankle is and a loud snap was heard. Cardin fell in a scream of pain. Aero then put his foot on Cardin's back. "Do you Yield, WInCHESTER?" He said his surname like a taunt. An insult. Cardin turned and swung his mace and finally landed a hit on him. But he didn't move. In fact, to Cardin's horror, he got his face and half of it was blown off, show the glistening white of bone. As he watched, his muscles, tendons, and skin grew back in less then 10 seconds. "Do you think you can beat me? the Reaper of Souls? You'll have to try harder then that Winchester." Aero's eyes held a different gleam now, as he grabbed the arm that had hit him and another snap was heard. Cardin screamed as his arm was now facing the opposite direction. Then he felt like he couldn't breathe. He clutched his throat with his good hand. "Do you yield you pathetic maggot?" Aero snapped. his voice had changed, becoming deeper. More dark and reverberated through the room. Cardin nodded and suddenly he could breathe again. gasping for breath, Cardin passed out. Aero crouched down and put his hand on his back, his arm went back to normal and his ankle was set again.
Aero looked around and met eyes with Yang, who looked at him in horror. He spoke directly to her. "This is what I am. Now you know why I work alone, and have no friends. I will not blame you if you do not wish to speak with me again. For this is my curse, bound by blood." Aero walked to Jet, tapped his shoulder and walked out of the room. Jet following willingly with his brother. Jet stopped and turned to face the room again. "If you go after Aero for revenge against this Winchester." Jet practically spat the name out. "Know that what happened to Cardin was a blessing that he got healed afterwards. you will not be so fortunate. some I hope we can be friends, but understand that this is reality." Jet the n turned and followed Aero.
Aero and Jet were in the farthest corner away from everyone. They got a wide berth as everyone wasn't sure what to make what they saw. All they know is that a demon is among them. But at least only Cardin, whose pride was damaged, was the only victim and he got healed. Only 2 people approached them. Yang and Ruby. Ruby was first, gushing over the fight, tactfully avoiding the parts where Aero broke his bones. but loving the knifes and fangirling over them, making Aero smile tiredly. Then as Yang approached, He instantly locked on to her. She noticed him sigh and seem older then he was. Getting up and walking to meet her halfway, and he waited. The way he held himself was he expected to be punched, kicked, and beaten and he was willing to take it. Yang instead gave him a kiss on the cheek and whispered "good job." He looked surprised and blushed. "Uh aren't you mad what i did to him? I saw how you looked at me..." She sighed and tried to put her thoughts into words. "What i saw was my abusive boyfriend get his ass kicked, and while I admit it was definitely over the top and I hope that doesn't happen often... He definitely deserved worse. As for what I saw... Well it scared me. But you didn't seem to want it. You were fighting the demon. I think that's awesome." She smiled at him. He smiled back and bowed to her. "Thank you.. Only Jet and you have accepted me for what I am outside of my blood family." Yang was surprised. Was Jet not his real brother? Well that didn't seem so shocking. She was too busy blushing at the bow. Of course Cardin had to butt in now.
"What do you think you're doing Frostmane?!" Aero had that psychotic grin back on as he turned to face Cardin. "Ah Winchester, back for more? Perhaps without the healing this time?" Cardin took a step back, not able to help himself. The fear was irrationally powerful. Before he collected himself and grabbed Yang's hand. "Come on babe, let's get away from this FREAK!" he spat at Aero before yanking Yang with him. She couldn't get away and before she could turn around he had pulled her into a secluded classroom and started rutting against Yang. "Cardin stop no." She pleaded. as strong as she was, he was stronger and forced her hands behind her, and tied her hands with a lot of tape he'd found. Cardin ripped open her jacket and mauled her breasts and ripping off her shorts. He growled, ignoring Yang's words as she continued to plead him to stop. He had just grabbed her panties when a fist swung into the side of his face and through the wall. When Cardin got up, his whole right side of his face was crushed in. "I was going easy on you during that fight for Yang's sake. Now I'm done playing nice." Aero told him coldly. Cardin roared as he rushed forward, but he only got 3 steps before Aero disappeared and chopped his knee, shattering his kneecaps, bone sticking out through the skin, blood pouring out. Aero grabbed his arm and bent it behind his back. "Do you know what i hate more then Winchesters?" Aero snarled, his voice that deep reverberating voice that was so dark yet so inviting. "Those who think they can do anything to others with no consequences!" he pulled on the arm and the should cracked, causing Cardin to scream again as he broke his arm in 3 different places. "Do you want to live Winchester?" Aero growled. Cardin barely got the yes out. "I'm inclined to end your life here and now. But because Ozpin asked me to not take any lives here, you're in luck. Now get out and don't come anywhere near Yang got that?" He threw Cardin away after Cardin started nodding so hard his right side started bleeding. "Get to the infirmary before i send you there fully broken." Cardin scampered off as best as he could with the shattered kneecap. He helped Yang get out of the tape, and she hugged him sobbing, still in nothing but her slightly torn panties. He took off his jack and put it on her, which covered everything to her knees.
After making sure Yang was okay, and got her to Ruby. He told if Cardin comes anywhere near her, tell Jet to send him a message, and then left to inform Prof. Ozpin. Which is where he currently was, his arms crossed and muscles tensed, trying to keep the rage from building. "So even though he tried to rape a student here, and had been abusing her for who knows how long, you're OKAY with him being here?!" Prof. Ozpin sighed, and turned to face Aero. "Unfortunately I can't do anything about Mr. Winchester. You of all people know how much power his family holds." Aero stopped shaking with rage and a cruel smile spread across his face. "Then I'll take care of the problem myself." He said smoothly. "His family can come after me all they want, they won't be able to kill me."
