Can you feel the power!?

I couldn't sleep tonight and in fact I was struggling to keep up, but nothing that a little cold water couldn't help me, you are surely wondering why I am in such a state, and the answer is also very simple.

Nightmares

Exactly nightmares, since I unlocked my aura I started to have them, and with Goodwitch's words constantly ringing in my head it did nothing but worsen the situation, and also I suspect that I was being spied on because Double Iris Magician who had me made company warned me that there was something outside my dorm window that was spying on me, and when i went to check however i found nothing but a black feather and this made my situation even worse because apparently i caught the attention of the drunk hunter's sister, so i have to be more careful from now on.

Anyway now I was in the cafeteria to get breakfast as always but this time I didn't know where to sit because the seats were full and also I didn't know anyone because I didn't have time to get to know the other students, because I spent all the time to think about how to prevent certain future events and unpredictable combos that I could do with my deck. I resigned myself and decided to wait for a seat to become available, when then I heard a voice.

"Hey you! Come here" the voice said.

Looking around for a while I found the source, and of all the people in the cafeteria that group of students sitting there was one I was hoping to avoid in order to get an idea of how to act.

The leader of the RWBY team was waving me over and taking a seat at their table along with some members of his team and the JNPR team.

Deciding not to sound rude to them, I walked over to the table and sat down. As soon as I did, however, it happened that I was bombarded with questions from two girls. (Ruby Rose, Nora Valkyrie)

But luckily the others managed to calm them down so that I had time to breathe and eat.

"Thanks," I said

"No problem," Ren replied as he drank his coffee

Then, taking advantage of the opportunity, I decided to introduce myself so as to make friends with them.

"My name is Yuya Sakaki and I'm the world's first dueltainer." I said

At my presentation everyone (except Black to which I introduced myself but still a little confused about the end of the word) were staring at me like I said something weird and now that I thought about it it was since they had no idea what it was.

"Left me explain." I said

"A dueltainer is someone who takes care of entertaining audiences with a flashy presentation, death-defying stunts and a little humor making it look like a circus act." I explained. At the end of the explanation I was looked at with looks of administration, surprise, disregard and anger.

The first to speak was Ruby with a huge smile

"So you fight like it's a circus act? I want to see, I want to see it and tell me what your weapon is? Is it a sword that becomes a gun? A scythe that is also a gun? I'm curious tell me." she said with her usual dork attitude.

"Did you hear Ren? He can do the circus." Nora said, shaking Ren violently.

"Yes, Nora I heard." he replied calming her.

"I don't believe it! You're just a clown." Weiss said

"What?" I asked her answer.

"What are you even doing here? This is not a circus! This is Beacon! A school where we are here to fight monsters." She said pointing the finger at me.

"Well ...excuuuuuuuuuus me princess! If you don't like my way of fighting" I said slightly angry.

"It's Heiress, actually, Weiss Schnee, heiress to the Schnee Dust Company."

"Oh! That's explain a lot, and nice to meet you Weiss." I said

She didn't answer me.

"My name is Ruby Rose." she said.

"I'm Nora Valkyrie let's break the legs together sometime." she said energetically as always.

"My name's Lie Ren. But just call me Ren."

I flashed a thumbs up at the young man, who took another sip of coffee. Behind him, I saw Yang, Jaune, and Pyrrha, all carrying trays of food. Ruby waved them over, and they sat at our table.

"Oh yes. Yuya, this is Pyrrha Nikos. She was the top graduate of Sanctum Academy, and the victor of the Mistral regional tournament for four years running." Weiss introduced me to her, a proud smile on her face. She turned to Pyrrha, and gestured to me.

And at the end was Jaune's turn to introduce himself.

"The name's Jaune Arc. Short, sweet, rolls off the tongue, ladies love it."

"…Do they," i ask even if i alredy know the answer, but hearing from him is always funny.

"They will! Well, I…I hope they will," Jaune admitted.

I hold my laugh inside of me.

Attention students. Could all first year students please report to the weapons gallery for training. Once again, all first year students report to the weapons gallery for training.*

Well, so much for breakfast…

"C'mon guys, let's go." I said, standing up and bagging the rest of my roll, which had been forgotten until now, and throwing it into my rucksack for later. Ruby groaned, and followed suit, as did everyone else.

"Nora, you've got… something." Ren said gesturing to her face. The valkyrie licked her lips, futilely trying to clean her sugar coated face.

"Did I get it?" She asked. I sighed, and began the long walk. How Ren survived knowing her this long was anybody's guess.

"You may already know this, but in the life of a Hunter, their weapon is all that stands between life... and death. Should you lose your weapon, be it wrested from your grip, or heaven forbid, be destroyed, then do not simply rely on your own mettle. Our ancestors fought and bled with countless weapons. But when their weapons were destroyed, did they run and hide? Did they cower for their lives with a hilt and a metal shard in their hands? They did not. In battle, every fallen weapon has potential. My name is Professor Kor, and I will be teaching you how to best utilize that potential."

Professor Kor stood atop a podium, the holographic arena projecting a massive image of him for everyone to see, so large, his hands could easily pick one of us up.

"You must understand the basics of not just your own weapons, but your teammates as well. If you cannot coordinate attacks that utilize the best of your abilities, then you risk not only your own lives, but the lives of your teammates, the lives you have sworn to defend. Now, I would like to give a quick demonstration. Who here wishes to assist me?"

The hologram of Professor Kor faded from view, replaced by a scanning machine of some sort. As tempting as it was to let my hand shoot up, I had had my moment in the sun yesterday. I didn't want to be a glory hound, and to be honest, I began to feel a little dizzy since I'd stood up from breakfast. So I kept my hand firmly anchored to my side.

"Weiss Schnee. And Cardin Winchester. I see you two are most enthusiastic to help me out. Please, come on up and place your weapons in the scanners." He cried, gesturing to the device. Weiss walked up, and placed her weapon into her scanner. Cardin did the same with his Almace. A loud digital tone sounded, as the weapons were scanned. First came a holographic image of Myrtenaster with a long list of details following.

"And now, Ms. Schnee and Mr. Winchester, exchange weapons!"

Professor Kor's booming voice caused some murmurs in the crowd. I understood why: wielding weapons tailored to their strengths was all these students knew until now. Being forced to pick up other weapons was going far outside everyone's comfort zone. Nevertheless, Weiss's Myrtenaster and Cardin's Almace switched hands. Weiss seemed to struggle with the heavy mace, but mustering the effort, she hoisted it up on her shoulder, face contorted while trying to carry around the heavy weapon.

Cardin, on the other end of the scale, looked positively ridiculous with the royal rapier resting in his massive palms. By size alone, it looked like he was wielding an enormous silver toothpick. Swinging it around, his hands nearly crushed the grip. Clearly, brute force wouldn't work for him here. Though I doubted the man even knew any other way of combat. Most of what I had seen him do revolved around the concept of attacking, attacking, and attacking.

"Now, take your places at the edge of the arena, and wait for the tone. When you hear it, try and defeat your opponent using their weapon."

With those words, Weiss stumbled unsteadily over to one side of the arena, while Cardin to the other. Weiss seemed to struggle, but, after some grunting, finally managed to heft Cardin's weapon aloft. Cardin merely swung her sword around, trying to get a feel for it. Looking at his build, he was more suited to taking a lot of hits and dealing out a lot of damage. Myrtenaster wasn't capable of that: rapiers were used for thrusting and stabbing.

"Fight well!" Blake cheered, waving a pennant that had "RWBY" emblazoned on it.

'I have GOT to get one of those...'

"You got this, Weiss!" Ruby shouted, causing Weiss to turn to her.

"Ruby! I'm trying to concentrate!" She yelled out, causing Ruby to shrink back and mutter a small apology.

BOOP*

As soon as the tone sounded, Cardin rushed forward, slashing Myrtenaster every which way, hoping to hit Weiss with an aggressive strategy. Weiss tried to block with Cardin's weapon, but she barely managed to hoist it up before Cardin slashed at her. Using the weapon's weight, she threw it to the side, flinging herself away from Cardin's attack.

"Come on, Weiss, you can do it!" Ruby cried out. Weiss merely shot an angry glance, but it was replaced by one of worry when Cardin swung Myrtenaster at her, causing her to drop the Almace. Spinning on his heels, Cardin immediately began pursuing Weiss, who had brought up a series of glyphs to shield herself with. Cardin slashed at the impromptu defense, without showing any mercy.

"Weiss, try and use your glyphs to make the mace lig-"

"STOP TELLING ME WHAT TO DO!" She burst out, trying to look at Ruby and block Cardin's strikes at the same time. I glanced at Ruby, and sure enough, she looked hurt at this outburst. As Cardin finally broke through Weiss's shields, she took a chance, and rolled out of the way of Cardin's slash. While Cardin glanced around the battlefield looking for her, Weiss flicked her hand, causing four glyphs to surround Cardin. They turned black, and engulfed Cardin's wrists and ankles, hoisting him into the air, helpless.

"Hey, what gives?!" Cardin struggled against his bonds, to no effect. Weiss said nothing, merely strode over to the discarded Almace, and wrapped her fingers around it. As soon as she lifted, small blue glyphs formed around the handle of the weapon, and she hefted it onto her shoulder like it weighed little more than a twig. Striding over to Cardin, who continued to struggle, she roughly grabbed his chin, causing him to stop resisting.

"If you ever treat my rapier, or any other weapon, like that again, I will cut your heart out." She hissed. Then taking some steps away, she flung the Almace back, aiming right at Cardin's stomach. The mace hit true, knocking the wind right out of Cardin, shattering the glyphs that had previously bound him, and sending him flying into a wall. As he flew, Myrtenaster flew out of his grip, and twirled through the air. Weiss effortlessly caught it, and sheathed the rapier before anybody could react. Then, without a word, she strode out of the arena. Professor Kor took the stage, clapping.

"An impressive display of power, Ms. Schnee. You are truly a wonder on the battlefield!" He said to her. She didn't even acknowledge him. And with that, Professor Kor turned to us.

"Unfortunately, that is all we have time for. Be sure to cover the assigned readings, before the next class. And if anyone has issues, I will gladly assist in any way I can. Good day."
