A/N: Soooo I spelled Pyrrha's last name wrong.. I derped that one up lol
Edit: This chapter had been changed up a bit but nothing too important. Just a battle scene was changed as well as some corrected mistakes.
The day started out as normal as everyone attended their classes until the afternoon when all the teams were to gather at the training grounds outside. A green haired man stood and waited as students began entering one by one. "Seems I will be teaching Ike's students.." He walked to the center and immediately pulled a book from his robe and began reading.
Pyrrha sighed as she checked her gear while walking to the training grounds. Yesterday was tiring but that afternoon's class seemed like it would be a lot more simple since it was going to revolve around strategy and tactics. "I heard our professor for this one is a friend of Ike's." She snapped out of her stupor as she looked over at Yang who was talking to her team. "I think it's the green haired guy I ended up punching while fighting Ike. What was his name again?" She stopped as turned to the other team to ask a question when they all heard a loud slam.
"I'm glad I got your undivided attention. My name is Soren. I will be teaching this class and it will be fairly simple material and practice." He looked at everyone and nodded as he pointed at the leaders of team RWBY and CRDL. "I want both of your teams to come forward. and yours as well Miss Nikkos." Everyone nodded as they stepped forward with their weapons ready.
"Yesterday Ike tested your battle capabilities and today I will be testing your ability to plan and execute a strategy. All others are to take notes on the strategies they use and then you will all be giving your input as to what worked and didn't work." He quickly formed glyphs under each team. "You will all be teleported to your destinations." He proceeded to toss each team a small white stone. "I will be keeping contact with all of you via those stones. Have your leader carry them." Each team readied themselves as they began disappearing one by one.
Once all teams disappeared, he concentrated on the stone as he began to speak. "Due to Team JNPR having one less member. Select a member of each team to stay behind and defend the objective. The two members selected to defend cannot leave the area and must be near their scroll part at all times. Please make your selections."
Pyrrha looked over at Ren and Nora as they began to discuss who they should force to stay in base. "If we make Cardin stay behind then he won't be able to command his team unless he's using the scrolls we received when we first entered Beacon." She thought about it when the raven haired aura specialist spoke again. "The problem will be team RWBY. If we really need to keep someone out it should be Weiss. She will be able to harass us from afar with her spells while the rest of her team can close in but, it also works inversely. If we press her then she will have no other option than to be conservative until she needs to refill the dust canister on Myrtenaster. We can defeat her then and steal the scroll piece." The spear bearer nodded as she concentrated on the stone.
"Instructor Soren. We've made our decision. Weiss Schnee and Cardin Winchester will be the ones bound to their scrolls. We are ready to commence." The mage nodded as he concentrated on the stone once more. "Attackers. Commence the mission! Cardin Winchester. Weiss Schnee. You are bound to your scrolls. Defend them and hope for the best. Good luck to all." The red head nodded as she readied her weapon and stood by the scroll. "Ren you attack Team RWBY's scroll. Nora you after CRDL's. It will probably be a three way battle so be ready for anything. I'm defending our scroll. Move out!" Both nodded as they headed in separate directions.
Yang sighed as she ran towards team JNPR's point with Blake at her side. "I wish I got to defend. I know there would be a lot more fighting involved.." The raven haired girl sighed as she listened to her partner rant about how boring attacking the objective would be since it would only be against one person. "Ruby thinks Ren's gonna be defending. You think so?"
Blake was about to respond when she quickly tackled her blonde partner to the ground. "We're being sniped!" She winced as she lowered her head once again. "Pyrrha's defending!" The fighter grinned as she stood and ran towards the area where the shots were coming from. As she ran, a few of the shots impacted her which caused her to wince in pain. "Yang I'll circle around!" The blonde nodded as she continued her charge. Her eyes widened as she avoided a throwing knife that came close to her face. She looked around and winced as a few more sniper shots impacted her body. Luckily they were being protected by specially made dust barriers which darkened at the area of impact.
"My my I didn't think I'd be fighting one of you guys." Yang looked everywhere for whoever was speaking until she avoided a slash at her neck and countered with a swift punch which hit nothing. "Gotta be faster than that if you want to him me." She growled and looked around when she felt a knife embed itself into her back. A sudden gust of wind caused her to throw another punch which hit nothing once again until she saw a boy wearing a hoodie without sleeves and a green mohawk staring at her with a grin.
The blonde growled as she got into her fighting stance and charged at Russel who avoided her oncoming attack with ease. "Stay still damn you!" The two continued to fight until the fighter unleashed her Aura which caused the speedster to jump back in order to avoid the shockwave. "Disappear!" His eyes widened as he struggled to keep up with her increased speed until she landed a punch to his stomach which caused him to crash into a nearby tree that shattered upon impact. He winced and then chuckled as he stood up and flared his aura which seemed to lower the air pressure around him to extremely low levels.
"Maelstrom." Upon saying those words, he disappeared and instantly reappeared behind Yang who blocked his slash only to take another knife hit from behind. "I'm faster than you and your little sis combined." He laughed as he pulled out a second dagger and disappeared once again. "Let's see if you can keep up."
Nora ran through Beacon until she reached the area where they had fought Ike and noticed Cardin already fighting someone. "Stand still you brat!" The large mace crashed down against the scythe bearer's weapon as they pushed each other away. "Hmph I figured you'd send your sister to take me on. Guess you want a piece of me huh." The hooded girl sighed as she spun her scythe and charged the mace wielding warrior who easily knocked her away with sheer strength. "You really think we would of shown our strength to you guys." He laughed as he continued to overpower her every time they clashed. "we fooled you all! We acted weak so you morons would do something stupid like this."
Ruby winced as she spun her scythe once more in order to regain her form. "I figured you guys would do something like this." The comment caused the warrior to raise an eyebrow and chuckle as he readied his mace once more. "When the ursa attacked you guys. You did all you could to act the part of a scared to death pansy." She charged and instead of attacking, she vaulted over him and held the blade under his neck. "Now if you would gimme your piece of the scroll. Pretty please?" She quickly turned and was quick enough to avoid a halberd being aimed at her side. "Okay. That was unexpected."
The orange haired girl dashed from her hiding spot and immediately swung her hammer which impacted against Lark who was launched backwards into a nearby wall. "Two on one is no fair! How bout I join ya Ruby?" She stood next to the scythe bearer who nodded at the suggestion. "We'll fight it out after we take care of em. Plus this gives me a chance to break Cardin's legs!" Both members of team CRDL readied themselves as they stared down their opponents.
Weiss studied the intricate casing where the piece of the scroll was when she heard footsteps behind her. "And you are?" A man in brown armor stood behind her with a sly smirk on his face. The schnee heiress turned and readied her rapier when the armored opponent held his hand out as if to say he wasn't going to attack. "Trying the civil approach I see."
The man chuckled as he placed his hands behind his back. "My name is Dove Bronzewing. I'm a member of team CRDL and I would like to ask you to please relinquish the scroll. I promise to give you a portion of the reward if you comply." The fencer chuckled as she stood in front of the scroll with her weapon at the ready. "Ah it seems like you declined my proposition. Fine then." He quickly thrust his arm out which released two hidden blades as a drawstring made of aura formed. "I guess I'll have to use force. I really didn't want to injure such a pretty face."
A glyph appeared under the archer before an explosion of fire caused him to roll out of the way while launching a pair of arrows which bounced off of a white glyph that seemed to stop the arrows and redirect them towards the ground. Dove grit his teeth as he avoided more explosions as well as random icicles that erupted from the ground. Once the spells seemed to stop, he lined up a shot and fired a larger arrow that penetrated the white glyph that was protecting the Schnee heiress. She winced as the arrow cut past her shoulder leaving a dark marking which indicated that she had been hit.
The archer chuckled as he brushed his hair back before pulling back on his bow and unleashing a pair of arrows like the last one. Weiss jumped out of the way and closed the distance by using her glyphs to speed her movement enough to close in and unleash a series of elegant but powerful slashes. The squinty eyed bow man winced as multiple marks formed around him as he did his best to avoid the rapid stabs and slashes coming from the elegant fencer. Once he had backed away enough, he quickly pulled back the string of aura and shot into the sky which in turn caused a series of arrows to rain down.
The distraction was good enough as he channeled a larger arrow that was about to fire when he avoided a volley of bullets that erupted from a green clad fighter. "Lie Ren I presume." The aura specialist nodded as he pointed his weapons at the two opponents before he charged at the archer who unleashed the arrow that nicked his side causing the magenta eyed fighter to wince before he unleashed a series of palm thrusts and punches before he slammed his leg into Dove's side causing him to tumble to the ground.
Once the archer was out of the way, the heiress knew she would stand no chance against Ren in hand to hand combat so she jumped back and began to unleash a series of icicles which erupted from the ground and the aura user ran, jumped and rolled past them in order to close the distance. Once he was close enough, he unleashed a heavy palm strike which was stopped by a glyph she created at the last second before piercing him with a light blue shard that caused him to become nearly weightless. She swung downwards causing the floating Ren to crash into the ground before nearby being impaled by a volley of icicles.
The three looked at each other as they readied themselves for the rest of the fight. "I guess asking for the scroll wouldn't work?" The heiress laughed as she spun her rapier before casting a series of glyphs around herself. "Guess not." The aura specialist drew his weapons and pointed them at his two opponents before he looked over at the archer who had his bow drawn and ready to fire at a moments notice.
The battle between Yang and Russel raged on as they continued to counter and avoid each others attacks. "I'm impressed. You've been keeping up pretty well." The blonde charged forward and clashed with the speedster's daggers as she launched him backwards again. The signs of wear and tear evident in her heavy breathing and deteriorating stance. On the other hand, he was completely fine and still able to move at the same speed. "I think I should end this already." His eyes began to glow as the pressure around him increased to insane amounts before the fighter could close in.
She found it hard to breathe and her body felt like it was made of lead as she was barely able to stay in a kneeling position before he walked over to her with a grin. "wh-what the?" She could barely speak as she felt the pressure increase once again as he moved closer to her. She was on her hands and knees as she tried her best to keep herself up. "unless you can take enemies down in a couple of hits." She growled as she unleashed as much of her aura as possible in order to force herself to stand. "You won't be able to survive long drawn out battles." She readied herself as he dashed towards her. "Your overconfidence." Her reduced speed allowed Russel to close in and knock her down. As she tried to get up, he grinned as he pushed her back down with his foot.
"I win." He said before he stabbed down and deliberately missed her neck and instead cut off a decent part of her hair. Her eyes widened as she saw how close the blade was to her neck. That's when she noticed the strands of hair that were next to her. Her scream was enough to cause the speedster to jump back but was too late. The sudden shockwave caused him to crash into the ground which in turn broke his concentration. "Damn it." Before he could focus on his ability, a hand grabbed his face and then proceeded to launch him into the ground at high speeds. The sudden impact caused his eyes to go blank before a fist crashed down onto his chest which created a rather deep crater. Before she could do any more damage, a loud bang was heard followed by the blonde collapsing to the ground out cold."Will lead to your demise."
Pyrrha sighed in relief as she saw Yang collapse from her shot. "At least she stopped rampaging." When she turned, she noticed Blake standing with the piece of the scroll in her hands. "When.." She smirked as placed the scroll in the pocket on the side of her pants before drawing Gambol Shroud. The gladiator narrowed her eyes as she shifted her weapon to its spear form. "It doesn't matter. I screwed up yesterday but, I refuse to mess up now." she readied herself as Blake readied her weapon and waited. "We can't afford to lose!" She yelled out as she charged.
A/N: Phew that was a doozy. Team CRDL are bullies but they're cowards so I decided to make their weakness an act. I don't like overly weak antagonists and I liked some ideas I saw on the RWBY wiki which were used for the team's weapons. Sky Lark: Halberd, Russel Thrush: Daggers/Throwing knives, Dove Bronzewing: Crossbow/Bow (Design was based a bit off of Ezreal from League of Legends(well the concept at least)) To those who are RWBY fans but haven't necessarily played Fire Emblem Radiant Dawn or know much of the world. Do not worry for I will (starting next chapter) Have something called Journal Entries which will go between Ike and Soren which will detail and describe terms mentioned or spoken about.
Thanks for reading and stay tuned!
