The airship ride was silent. It seems without the loud mouth wolf on there it would stay that way.
"We're here Ozpin."
"Good, open the hatch." The man nodded and opened the hatch. "Okay everyone out."
Telcam got up and jumped off first once again. Why is everyone so afraid of jumping of this thing. It's actually quite funny being in freefall. Telcam landed and saw the wolf waiting there. What he beat us, how? This place is 20 miles out he did not cover that in an hour, no way he did.
"Hmm, oh you're finally here it took you guys long enough. I've been waiting for way too long."
The rest of them finally landed.
"Oh looks like you beat us Braxton."
"No shit Ozpin. I've been waiting for the past 20 minutes for you guys to show up.I could have killed at least ten Grimm belt l before you got here. Now can we start?"
"Man your just a straight up asshole aren't you?" Ulric was absolutely dumbfounded by how the wolf acted.
"I don't think you know yet but I really want to kill you." Braxton had his hands on Grimm and Fang just waiting for the right moment.
Telcam just looked on at the two boys stupidity. Why does this human keep coming at the wolf? If the stories are true, he's not someone you want to get on the wrong foot with.
"Boys let's stop the arguing before Ozpin gets mad." Zawaz was trying to break them up but Braxton and Ulric were to stubborn to listen.
"I think we just let them argue for now Zawaz. I'll explain why we're here right now. In that forest there are artifacts I want you to get and bring back to me. But here's the catch everyone will have a partner."
"Sorry to interrupt Ozpin but how will that be decided?"
"Good question Zawaz. Who ever you make eye contact with first is your partner until the end of initiation. Now that's though we can I can explain how you get down there. Step on the pads that Braxton and Ulric are on if you all would please." Everyone walked on to the pads and waited for Ozpin to speak. "Okay now watch Braxton everyone."
"Wait, what did you saaaaaaaaa!" Braxton was launched into the air. "Damn you Ozpin! I'll get you back for this!"
"Ha, that's what you get woooolf!" Ozpin launched Ulric into the air.
"Okay does everyone one understand?" Ozpin looked at the students looking to see if they all understood what was happening. "Good. Well have fun." Ozpin launched the rest of the students. Braxton was coming down to the ground fast. Damn it Ozpin. Think Braxton, think. Use the trees.
Braxton aimed for a tree's branch and grabbed it to swing from. Okay just don't slip. Braxton hand misses the next branch he was going for.
"You gotta be kidding me!" Tuck and roll idiot, tuck and roll. The wolf messed up on his roll and smashed his left shoulder into a rock. "Damn it, I can't move my arm. Damn it!" Damn it, I gotta get moving the Grimm heard that for sure. But it was too late the Grimm found him and it was a full pack of beowolves. "What are you waiting for, attack me!" Braxton drew Grimm ready for the fight.
"What was that?" Zawaz heard Braxton yelling. "Oh no I think someone's in trouble." she ran to where she'd heard the noise come from. No it's Braxton if he's in trouble then what does that say for the rest of us.
"If you won't make the first move then I will." Grimm shot out his blade ready to help Braxton. "Actually you know what I'll give you Grimm the special treatment." Braxton put away Grimm and then put his arm behind his back. Then there was a clank something attached itself to the faunus. "Meet Howl." Braxton was covered in black armour. "Now time for you bloody Grimm to die." The wolf got full control of his left arm again. He charged the Grimm. He threw a left jab at the Beowulf in front of him turning it to black dust. The rest off the pack rushed at him connecting at multiple points but nothing got through though. "That the best you got?" He picked one up by its throat and crushed it in his right hand. Ask the Grimm jumped back. "Two down and only ten left to easy. I wish it was pack of 18 that would have been at least a bit difficult." The beowolves surrounded him. Hmm, two in back, three in front, two to left and right. Front first. Braxton rushed the front three and jumped in the air aiming for the middle one. "Incoming you bloody Grimm!" he smashes the middle one and turns his attention to the one on the right. "Die!" He hammered it with a right hook taking of its head. With ask his momentum he stuck out his left arm connecting with the Grimm's cheek snapping its neck. As the Grimm faded away he looked at the remaining Grimm. "Five down, only seven left. Let's en-"
Zawaz saw the wolf slowing down. "Hey, don't over exert yourself. Let me take on the rest."
"You must be fucking stupid, I'm no where near my limit. Plus these are my kills not yours."
"Don't act tough when you know you're running out of juice. Just trust me Braxton."
"You can fuck right off-" Braxton's armour disappeared and feel to a knee. Damn it how did she know and why am I out of aura already.
"Told you. Now leave everything to me."
"Can you even handle this many Grimm? Do you even have the skill in hand to hand combat like I do? If you don't you'll get ripped to shreds, so I recommend you run and let me finish this."
"Why are you so stubborn just accept my help would you."
"Never, I don't trust Humans let alone let them defend me. So do me a favour and run."
"You need to let others help you. You can't do everything by yourself you know." The Grimm attacked Zawaz aiming at her chest.
Damn it, move body, MOVE! Braxton ran in front of Zawaz taking a hit right in his left arm. "Your fights with me you damn Grimm." Braxton drew Grimm and blew away the Beowulf.
"Your an idiot you know that."
"I'll take that as a thank you and good luck cause I'm pretty sure I can't do that again. Six down, six more to go." Braxton passed out leaving Zawaz to fight the final six Grimm. Okay so Braxton is out. What will I do. Cause he's right I can't fight all of them. Well I guess spray and pray. Zawaz grabbed the weapon at her side. It was a compact submachine gun she called Icy Hot. Only thing I know I have to come to the realization that I may fall here protecting someone I don't know. But I owe him know he saved me from the first shot. So I'll do him this favour even if he didn't want me to. She pulled her smg apart transforming it to a set of tonfa with jagged edges. "Okay here goes nothing." she ran straight past them. The Grimms chased her trying to keep up but she was fast. Okay use everything to your advantage and you'll win for sure just outsmart them. Zawaz dived to the left having all of the pack overshoot her but one. A Beowulf jumped around the corner just missing her. Zawaz kicked off the tree smashing the tonfa into its head. The other Grimm were coming back now. Okay five left, just be smart. She ran again trying to get one out of place. The one in the back is out of place but how do I get it. Ah the tree like I did before but run up it this time and jump of to get the drop. Zawaz ran up the tree in front of her dogging the Grimm that was behind her attack. She kicked off the tree and landed on the one in the back just as planned. Yes, Crap time to run again. Zawaz blotted the other way running into the wolf faunus that was still in the ground. Oh bravo Z now you forced yourself to fight them head on. "Braxton if you were going to get up and play hero again this would be the time." The wolf just laid still. "No response of course. Welp time to stand and fight. Well it could be worse there could be six." Okay let's get it done then, before I fall to these beowolves. Get to the high ground Z. She ran up a tree before the Grimm were able to see but they did see the undefended wolf. Take the bait come on you know you want it. The Grimm circled Braxton to see if he would get up but no movement was seen. A Grimm went in for the kill but was turned to dust before it could get close to the faunus. "Bring it on Grimm as Braxton would say." She had a smile on her face. The middle Grimm attacked first. It dived right at her but Zawaz just side stepped the Grimm smashing it in with with her tonfas. The other Grimm just looked at her, examining her. "I'm waiting." Zawaz had her arms crossed staring down the beowolves. The beowolves attacked simultaneously one aiming high and the other going low. Zawaz jumped right thru them. But something was off when the beowolves landed they turned to black dust. "Well that was easy enough. Wait what about Braxton? Is he still alive?" She walked over to the wolf faunus and felt for a heartbeat. It's there but faint. I need to get him patched up and now. She put her hand on Braxton's cut. This is my fault he took the shot for me. Okay time to use it. She focused all her aura into her hand that was on Braxton's cut. She ripped her aura apart and transferred it to Braxton. Aura that was transferred healed his cut and left a scar in place of the the cut. "Man that drained me more than usual. I just hope it stabilizes him." Braxton started to wake up.
"Yaaaawn, man what a nap. Ow why does my arm hurt and why can't I move it? Oh yeah, WAIT what about that girl!?"
"I'm right here don't worry." She smiled at the wolf but he looked away.
"Who says I was worried?"
Man he has a nice side who would have guessed.
"You imposed it Braxton."
"I did no such thing. But there is one thing I don't get about this."
"And that would be?"
"Shit I said that out loud."
"Yes you did, so what is it."
"Well, what are you?"
"Ouch that hurt a bit."
"What I mean by this is you can't be human and you sure as hell not a faunus. So what are you?"
"I'm a Human. Not all of us want to see faunus burn you know."
"I don't believe that. Humans have destroyed so much of my life. So why would one save me now? It makes no sense none whatsoever. Whatever time to get moving." Braxton stands up with his left arm staying still at his side. "Damn, I think it's dislocated. Time to pop out back in place." He walked over to a tree and lend against it.
"Wait let me help you."
"No need."
"You shouldn't even be moving let alone popping your shoulder back into place. So let me help."
"Fine, get over here then." She walked over to Braxton and grabbed his shoulder. "Don't warn me that it's cooooming. Damn your ruthless you know that." Zawaz popped his shoulder back in place without thinking about it.
"Hey you said no warning, not me."
"Yeah I did but I didn't think it would happen right after I said that. Well let's move on then."
Dang he's stubborn. "You really shouldn't be moving. We will just stay here for a bit, okay."
"What are you a doc or something?"
"No just a medic."
"Fine."
