Miguel was the first one to wake up, at around 8 in the morning, he woke up Aquila and Dusty, the latter of which opted to sleep for a bit longer on the excuse that he had gotten little sleep due to a recurring nightmare. Miguel and Aquila had gotten dressed and were waiting for Dusty to reawaken. This tested Miguels small amount of patience however, so Miguel yelled at him, "Wake the fuck up, Faggot!" "All right then, I'm going." After Dusty was dressed the three were waiting in their dorm when they heard a knock at their door, Miguel yelled at Dusty to open the door, Dusty was more than happy to oblige even after yesterdays events. The person standing was in fact Weiss, who was waiting for them to go leave for breakfast so that they could begin training as soon as possible, after eating breakfast as fast as they can they rush to the arena where team RWBY awaits. Weiss was waiting at the center of the arena, the rest of team RWBY in the stands as team MAD approach. "You guys finally made it, what do you so long?" Weiss starting to complain even though they were on time. "Oh well, go change into your combat gear I'll be waiting." without saying a word team MAD rush off to change "Alright guys our training shall commence and by ours I mean Dusty and me." Miguel stating as him and Dusty took off to the locker rooms leaving Aquila to join the others in the stands. Once Dusty and Miguel were ready for training, the approached the center stage and met up with Weiss, who okayed the start of the match, Miguel instinctively leaped towards Dusty with Div drawn, however Dusty had the advantage, catching Div by the blade and pushing it away, landing a few impressive hits on Miguel before back stepping to dodge another slash from Div, Miguel realizing his mistake switched to using Div's gun form as his primary force, only to be greeted by the blocking ability of the great-sword, Dusty switched to longsword mode and leaped forward in a zigzag pattern to throw off Miguel, it failed. Miguel slashed downwards landing a good hit on Dusty before the two split apart for one final standoff. The two friends rushed towards each other and slashed only for their blades to meet in the middle and force a clash, Miguel was gaining the advantage, due to his superior physical strength and right when Dusty was going to attempt to dodge backwards to avoid getting hit, he was hit by a vision, making him vulnerable for long enough so that Miguel could put Dusty out for the count. When Dusty recovered from his vision, he was helped up by Miguel and promptly yelled at by Weiss for letting his guard down. Dusty was still a bit out of it, he did just get knocked onto his back by Miguel during a vision. After Weiss was done yelling at him, he looked at Miguel and told him what he saw, "Miguel, I saw a vision, It had a person I haven't seen in a long time." "Who was it?" "I think it was Devon." "Why would he show up in a vision?" "My visions happen a hour prior to the event, we just have to wait for an hour." "But an hour is a fairly long time." "Not when you're getting pushed around." Miguel laughed at that last comment much to the distaste of Weiss, who promptly started talking about both fighters Pros and Cons. "Miguel is physically stronger than Dusty which gave him the edge in the ending clash, however Dusty had the upper hand early on with his parrying dagger, you shouldn't of switched modes when you had the advantage, don't think you're safe either Miguel, you shouldn't just go charging in, survey the situation and determine the most effective strategy from there."
At that moment in a different area of the school a new student had arrived, he was just leaving the airship and walking towards the school's main hall past the many students who were walking around, likely just aimlessly wandering around talking to people they knew and those they didn't know alike. As the new student walked around aimlessly trying to find the amphitheater. Once he had located the amphitheater, he met up with Professor Ozpin, who promptly reminded him of why he was here, and more importantly whose team he would be joining. As the newcomer approached his destination, he can hear the yelling of a girl, "Miguel keep reading, Dusty more push-ups Yangs beating you!" Weiss yelling at Dusty and Miguel. "I'm sorry war tactics aren't the most entertaining subjects especially if you're reading about the losing side." Miguel retorted "I'm weaker than Yang." Dusty trying to speak in between breaths as he notices a familiar face walking into the arena "Well I'll be, can't believe I would see the day when Dusty would speak to the opposite gender." Miguel noticing the origin of the voice "No fuckin way, Devon how the hell did you get to Beacon." "Of course I'm here, I'm better than you guys, why else would you guys be training when I just got here, you've only been here one day longer." Devon exclaiming, "Hey bastard we're training for a reason besides unlike combat school you can't just get lucky like always, Devon" Miguel snapping back. "Besides Dusty and I have it good here so far except our whole team losing in a first sparring match, anyway I still kicked ass though it was after the matches." Miguel beaming with pride. "As much as I'm sure you two would love to spend the day catching up, Miguel has mandatory reading to do, goodbye." Weiss signaling to Miguel to keep reading. "Why are you training them anyway?" Devon questioning what he was looking at. "They lost to us that's why." Ruby speaking up, "besides I felt sorry for them for losing against my teammates." Weiss answering the question "You don't need to bring up the past." Dusty exclaimed. "Well I'm going to head towards our dorm." Devon said, "Don't get lost!" Miguel shouted after him.
Devon walked out of the area and moved towards the dorms, mostly so he could unpack. He did make it to the dorm and realized that the accommodations were to his liking, he set down his stuff and got unpacked. Once he was unpacked, he went towards the cafeteria, as it was almost lunch and he hoped that he could catch Miguel and Dusty for a quick conversation about why they're training, and to get caught up to speed on what happened. He did catch up to them, to which he promptly asked Dusty all the questions he had, since Miguel and Aquila were talking to Team RWBY, and Dusty was walking slightly ahead of the group. "So Dusty, why are you guys training so hard on Day 2? You and Miguel aren't usually the types to train so hardcore." "You could say that we got crushed pretty badly that first day, then again nothing was going according to plan." "What happened exactly?" "First things first, Miguel wanted to meet Team RWBY and JNPR, and I told him we couldn't, that was at breakfast, then right before Lunch we ran into Team RWBY." "What're the odds of that happening?" "No seriously, Miguel walking right into Ruby, then he started petting her and got punched through a wall." "By Ruby?" "No, by her sister, Yang, then I had to apologize for Miguel cause he told me to." "Why did he make you do that?" "Because and I quote 'Cause Fuck You, That's Why' so yeah, that went well for once." "What happened after that." "We ate lunch, then we got to sparring class, Miguel fought Ruby and got outspeed and curb stomped, I got hit by about a dozen punches to the gut and shot with shotgun shells, and Aquila got a shocking surprise." "What happened at dinner?" "I dunno, ask Miguel or Aquila, I stayed behind at the dorms." "You were scared of Yang, weren't you?" "No, I had received a dozen punches to the gut an hour before, so I stayed behind and passed out, but before we went down to eat dinner, Yang and Weiss showed up at our dorm and Weiss asked if we wanted help with training, I said sure and Miguel practically started a fanfare for her." "Exaggeration much?" "Nope, no exaggeration, he literally pleaded for her to train him, when she was about to leave thanks to Aquila's rudeness, like on his knees, begging like a dog, it was hilarious." "Couldn't of been that funny." "It was pretty funny, if only you were there Devon." "Thanks for catching me up to speed, Dusty, see you later." "Bye Devon." They had made it to their destination, the cafeteria, Dusty moved to where the rest of his team was, and chose the seat farthest from Team RWBY, which meant he had to deal with Aquila sitting across from him, with Miguel poking his side again. It wasn't long until Devon asked Miguel what had happened at dinner yesterday, because Dusty wasn't there. Shortly thereafter, Team JNPR showed up to talk with Team RWBY and Team MADD, since they hadn't met Dusty yesterday and they had no clue who Devon was. "Hello," Jaune said as he sat down next to Dusty. "Hello, who might you be?" "My name's Jaune, you must be Dusty, the guy that wasn't hospitalized after cutting off a strand of Yang's hair." "Don't remind me about that, please don't, I like not feeling the pains of yesterday." "Must've hurt badly, anyways, meet the rest of my team, Pyrrha Nikos, Lie Ren, and Nora." "Nice to meet you all." "So how was training?" "How do you know about training?" "Miguel told Ren, that's how." "Damn it, Miguel, don't you know the importance of this training." Dusty said loud enough for the table to hear. "I'm fucking sorry, Dusty, how was I supposed to know what would've happened." "We'll finish this argument later." "Fine but I still don't get why you're so mad about team JNPR knowing that we are getting some 'help'." "Just drop the subject." Dusty quit talking and continued to eat.
Shortly afterwards Miguel and Dusty got back to training, this time he managed to get Aquila to reconstruct his weapon, so his blades regenerated rather than be pulled back with a steel cable. "Dusty, why are you so handy at updating weapons?" Aquila asked, "Well you see, I made Ocular from a couple of resources I had available, it was a pain to incorporate all the transformations, and I helped Miguel add the gun part to Div, since he didn't know how to make that shift and how to rifle the barrel for increased accuracy." "So, did Devon ever ask for help?" "No, he did every upgrade himself, mostly cosmetic changes, and the shotgun part." "Why didn't he ask for help on the shotgun?" "because shotguns don't need accuracy, since he fires birdshot and buckshot instead of slugs." "Interesting…" Aquila walked away having satisfied his quest for knowing why Dusty was so good at weapon updates, he sat with Devon and the rest of Team RWBY as they watched Miguel and Dusty battle it out in the arena, Dusty followed a pattern to his techniques reliant on predicting his opponent, and luckily Miguel wasn't the strategizing type so he fell for Dusty's tricks and lost the match due to several good shots with cryo rounds to freeze him in place, so Dusty had enough time to finish Miguel while being as flashy and stylish as possible, much to Aquila's distaste, but Devon spoke to Aquila first, "Dusty's always been this flashy, just ignore it." Then Weiss walked over to the two friends which had ended with Dusty helping Miguel up, luckily Miguel wasn't in bad shape and could still hold himself up, they were both ready to be yelled and then have to hear pros and cons, only to do training at the end. It was a boring time for everyone to have to hear entire lectures on these subjects. Miguel didn't take joy in his reading, and Dusty suffered from serious shortness of breath no matter how simple the physical torment teams moved towards the cafeteria, having been stuck in the arena for so long, they had lost track of time and still somehow were on-time with leaving the arena, Dusty moved ahead of everyone else for the same reason as he always did, to avoid having to talk, otherwise it was an ordinary walk. "So Weiss do you think that Dusty and I have improved a bit?" Miguel was trying to spark some kind of conversation between the two. "The only one that has improved so far is Dusty, you still just rush in like a maniac." "Yeah I guess I do but least i'm trying my best." Miguel starting to pick up the pace to catch up to Dusty. "At least develop some kind of strategy Miguel." Miguel now caught up with Dusty who was almost in the dining hall. "I will eventually Dusty this kind of stuff isn't exactly my forte, during combat school when it was you, Devon, and me, I always was the one with the brawn granted the students there weren't very strong and since then I would always hit them as hard as I could but now I need a strategy no doubt about but that is kinda hard to come up with when all she has got me doing is just reading war strategy." Dusty and Miguel have made it through successfully and is now heading to the table sit with Devon and catch up to see what made him want to go to Beacon. "Hey Dusty, Miguel guess who I just saw!" Miguel and Dusty not very surprised by his greeting "Who did you see Devon?" "Miguel it's one of your kind." "You saw a faunes how is that surprising you should know we are everywhere in town." "No not in town I saw her here at the academy she has bunny ears and it is amazing." Devon showing excitement over see this girl. "Calm down there Devon whenever you do this it gets weirder than it's supposed to, that's why I don't let you meet my cousins anymore." "That only happened one time." Devon trying to defend himself in the argument. "Yet you some how figured out what school they went to besides the girl we were talking about you probably won't see her again." "Miguel I will find her and maybe find out where her dorm is located." "Devon, what the fuck you should not do that." Dusty soon commenting. "That is illegal Devon." "wait Dusty how is that illegal?" "It's only illegal because of stalking issues, Miguels addiction to Ruby is quite demanding." "I don't know what you are talking about Dusty." At that moment team RWBY sat down with team MADD. "You know what I mean Miguel." Devon interrupts "Hey guys, we got visitors." pointing to team RWBY, Miguel and Dusty turning to look at the four girls. "Did they hear our conversation Dusty?" "Miguel you should ask them not me." "I don't want to but I guess I could." Miguel turning his whole body to look at the four girls. "Did you girls hear our little conversation." Ruby was the first to answer the question. "Nope." Yang answered next. "No, was it something perverted." Miguel answering too quickly to the remark for his own sake. "No, no it wasn't." "That totally does not sound suspicious Miguel." Weiss answering Miguels question. "No and Miguel you should head to the library to read more books on war strategy." Blake looking up from her book to stare at Dusty and Miguel. "I heard everything and Miguel I could recommend a book I used for some research in Grimm studies." "I would appreciate it, but how did you hear me and Dustys conversation?" "I have my ways." "Okay then, well my team and I are gonna hit the hay early tonight."
When Team MADD were walking down the hallway to their dorms, they were for once relieved to see Devon once again wasn't on about the bunny girl and instead was being his usual self. "Hey Miguel," Devon started, "What?" Miguel asked, "How's your dad doing in Menagerie?" "You would ask that, Devon." "And?" "Look, we're already at the dorms, just shut up and let me open the door, or you're sleeping with the stars tonight." "ok fine, take all the fun out of it, Miguel." They all were so tired, cept Devon because he did nothing but obsess over the faunus, they all fell asleep during one of Devons talks about how great faunus girls were. Devon fell asleep once everyone else was out, because he no one to talk to.
