Jaune could have sworn that he had set his alarm for 10 in the morning, so why was he reading 7 a.m upside down on his alarm clock. He wondered this for another second before he felt something unclamp from his ankle and his body was sent towards the ground, courtesy of gravity.
"Ow…" Jaune said after his thumped down onto the floor.
Looking at the side of his bed he saw Yang and Pyrrha standing next to each other in their combat uniforms. Yang displayed a cheshire grin that gave away the fact that she was the one who picked him up from bed by the ankle and dropped him on the floor.
As Jaune started to pick himself up from the floor, Pyrrha walked towards his closet and grabbed his armour for him.
"What'cha still doin in bed for, ya lazy bum?" Yang asked as she reached out and helped Jaune up off the floor. She didn't give him time to respond though and she started to shove him towards the restroom where Pyrrha had just finished setting down his armour.
"You wanted my help learning to fight with your fists, so you better expect to be up from dawn till dusk." Yang continued to say.
Jaune had finally been fully brought into the restroom, and yet again before he could turn around and respond, the door back into the room closed in his face.
"Be ready in 10 minutes, and don't make me come in there!" Yang's muffled voice said.
Jaune gave a small yelp at that last part and quickly began to get ready for the day ahead of him.
On the other side of the door Yang was laughing, while Pyrrha stood a bit off to her side with a small blush on her face.
"You wouldn't actually force your way in there right?" Pyrrha asked.
Yang laughed a bit more and shook her head.
"No, I wouldn't do that P-money. I would get Zwei to do it for me." Yang responded with a thumbs up to go along with it.
Pyrrha let out a small sigh, and then smiled at her friends antics.

Five hours later Jaune, Pyrrha, and Yang were all standing in one of the training areas. Jaune was lying on the floor, body posed in an eagle position. Yang sat in one of the chairs near the entrance to the room with a damp towel around her neck and a bottle of water in both of her hands. Pyrrha stood a few feet from Jaune also with a towel around her neck, and weapons stowed at her sides.
"Man...training unarmed with you Yang was hard enough. Having me train unarmed against an armed Pyrrha was just brutal." Jaune muttered from the ground and began to get up. Once he was on his feet he heard a short attention getting whistle come from Yang. When he looked he saw the second water bottle she had was already being tossed his way, and with the grace of a hippo he barely managed to catch it.
Pyrrha gave a short laugh at Jaune fumbling with the water bottle, and walked up to him placing her free hand onto his right shoulder.
"You did great Jaune. If we keep practicing like this you'll get it in no time." She said.
Jaune gave her a wide small, and then proceeded to open the bottle of water Yang threw at him and chug away at its contents.
Yang however began to frown after hearing what Pyrrha said. 'Get it in no time?! He barely managed to keep his arua above 25% halfway into both exercises.' Yang thought.
Yang cleared her throat and caught both Jaune and Pyrrha's attention. "Personally I think you blew chunks Jaune. You have no form, no power behind your hits, no prediction capabilities, and you didn't even try using your legs." Yang said.
Pyrrha looked horrified at what Yang had just said. It went completely parallel to how she had been trying to teach Jaune, with positive reinforcement. All that she had been trying to work towards in improving Jaune's fighting could go down the drain with what Yang just said. Jaune however didn't react how Pyrrha thought he would.
"That's why I need your help the most Yang. I don't know how to fight unarmed at all, and I'm just barely getting good at Crocea Mors with Pyrrha's help. I truly need an expert in the arts of unarmed combat to help me. I need your help." Jaune said with a determined look in his eye, crushing the now empty water bottle in his hands.
Yang smirked at Jaune, not expecting his reaction. Pyrrha just let out a big sigh glad that all her progress with Jaune didn't get destroyed.
"Well then tough guy get ready for another three hours of getting beat!" Yang said and she leapt at Jaune with glee.
(~)Dinner Time
"I never knew that my joints would be hurting at such a young age." said Jaune as he was resting his head on the lunchroom table in front of him.
Pyrrha patted his back trying to give him some comfort and Yang sat opposite him as she tore away at a piece of steak in front of her.
"Was your training really that taxing?" Blake, who was sitting next to Yang reading her book, whispered to her partner.
Yang just shook her head and casually said outloud, "Na his aura just ran out though near the end of the lesson."
Jaune let out a groan making Yang laugh. As she settled down she reached one of her hands out towards jaune head and gave is a few pats.
"You'll get in shape real soon Jaune, and then we'll really start making some progress." She said with a softer tone than normal.
Jaune slightly looked up and gave a small smile at her. Pyrrha on the other hand glowered at both the blondes with only Blake noticing.
Ring Ring!
Yang's scroll was chirping at her to pick it up. Once she pulled her hand away from Jaune and picked up her scroll her face lit up like christmas as she saw the caller i.d.
"Hey Rubes! How's it going? I bet without me there it's borYang!" Yang said with a wide smile at her pun.
Everyone at the table just groaned at that lame joke and they could swear they heard Ruby sigh on the other end of the line.
There was some muffled talking from Ruby for about a minute till it suddenly stopped. There was some crashing noises going off in the background, so Ruby mumbled a few more things before ending the call.
Yang opened her mouth looking like she was about to say something but Ruby was already long gone. Everyone noticed how Yang now had a glum look on her face as she slowly put her scroll back in her pocket.
"Hey Yang, how bout we head into Vale for the rest of the night? It's not like there's a curfew since it is break time." Jaune suggested.
Quickly Yang's face darted to look at Jaune as she began to quickly nod her head.
"I don't think I'll be going, I want to finish my book." Blake said as she started to gather all her trash and get up.
"I'm afraid I won't be joining you as well." Pyrrha said. "I...don't think it would be a wise decision for me to go out in public during the night time when there is no mandatory schooling going on." She tried to explain.
Yang and Jaune understood what she meant. 'I don't want to spend all night signing autographs and talking to strangers'
"Well, looks like it's just you and me Lover Boy. Two blondes hitting up the town." Yang exclaimed as she leapt over the table to land next to Jaune and got him in a headlock.
When Yang called Jaune Lover Boy it visibly caused Pyrrha to become upset, and before even Blake could notice this time she turned her face and began to gather her own things to leave.
"You two come back safe tonight, we still have training tomorrow." Pyrrha said as she started to walk off.
Yang just waved at her for herself and Jaune since he was still stuck with his head mashed between Yang's arm and chest.
