(So I got my first review. I must say very insightful and helpful, so thank you for whoever sent it and I would love more. This chapter took a bit longer to do and I hope everyone enjoys. From now on so I have time to come up with my own unique story each chapter may take anywhere from a week to two to post so thank you and enjoy the first fights.)

Cardin and Ivan stood forty paces from each other. The large bully was ready for a fight with his mace drawn and ready for action. Ivan just stood there his weapon not even drawn.

Suddenly Goodwitch started counting down “3.” Cardin tightened his grip and took a combat stance. Ivan just stood like a statue not even reaching for his weapon that was on his back “2,” Goodwitch said again.

“Ivan get ready to fight,” Bastian yelled. “Don’t let that jerk get the best of you.”

“1,” Ivan remained motionless while Cardin tightened his grip.

“What is he doing?” Onyx asked. Noir was wondering the same thing.

“I don’t know but he better get ready before,” Bastian started to say before Goodwitch yelled.

“Begin,” Cardin charged and swung his mace at the faunus. Scoring a direct hit, it sent the wolf faunus flying. Ivan got up shakily his head was ringing from Impact as he looked up he noticed Cardin charging at him. Ivan put his arm up to protect himself from the impending strike. When Cardin struck again Ivan didn’t go flying but was forced to shift his position.

“What are you doing Ivan?” Bastian yelled. “Pull your weapon out, Beat the punk up.” While the giant yelled at the faunus, Noir got Onyx’s attention while they watched the fight.

“Do you know why he isn’t fighting?” Noir asked the ninja inquisitively. Onyx just shook his head quietly as he continued to watch the onslaught down below. Meanwhile, Cardin was just striking the faunus over and over. After nearly a ten minute one sided brawl Ivan fell to the ground and the display with his picture showed his aura level in the red wile Cardin’s was nearly full.

“Enough,” Goodwitch commanded. The armored bully stopped mid-swing. “Match goes to Cardin Winchester,” A few cheers from Cardin’s team came and groans from Bastian and Noir. Goodwitch turned to Ivan who was laying supine on the ground “Next time Mr. Canis I suggest fighting back. Now clear the field for the next fight.” Immediately, Ivan sprang from his back to his feet like nothing was wrong and walked up to his team as the next match continued.

“What was that?” Bastian demanded of the faunus.

“What was what?” Ivan questioned wondering what was wrong.

“Ivan, You are definitely strong enough to take that guy,” Noir pointed out. In Noir’s mind any person capable of blowing up a giant spider should be able to take on a six foot teenage boy. What he found really odd was that Ivan refused to fight at all “why didn’t you fight back?”

“He is a person,” Ivan responded.

“He was completely rude to you because you were a faunus,” Onyx said flatly.

“That doesn’t change that he is a person. We are training to fight monsters not people. It doesn’t matter whether faunus or human, friendly or not we shouldn’t be fighting other people,” Ivan responded. “Therefore I refuse to fight a person without a truly justifiable cause to it, and being mean doesn’t deserve violence.” All of team NOIS’s mouths dropped at the wolf Faunus’s words of wisdom. They had never thought of the match like that.

“I respect your point of view,” Noir finally said. “But at least consider trying next time please?” The faunus nodded and the four guys went to watching the fight that was currently occurring. They watched as the dark haired girl from team RWBY easily take out another team CRDL member.

“Very good Ms. Belladonna,” Goodwitch said. The dark haired girl bowed quietly in respect of the teacher and left the sparring portion. “Now the next pairing is: Team JNPR’s Lie Ren,” A boy with long black hair dressed in a forest green oriental shirt stood up and made his way to the sparring area. “Your opponent will be: from Team NOIS’s Onyx Howlin.” Onyx stood up and walked down to face his opponent.

“Maybe this one will know how to fight,” Cardin yelled from the stands. The two ninjas ignored him both believing Cardin to be an idiot. Before anyone else said anything they walked up to each other and shook hands.

“Same way we always do?” Ren asked giving a warm smile to Onyx.

“No weapons, No aura?” Onyx responded with an understanding of what Ren was asking. Ren nodded in agreement.

“Gentleman take your places,” Goodwitch commanded. Onyx and Ren only backed up five paces each. Both boys took an unarmed stance at each other. After Goodwitch counted down from three and yelled “Begin,” the boys went at it. Each blow and kick from one the other one countered. Ren would go for a chop and Onyx would block and counterattack. Then before the counter attack could hit Ren would block and try to strike back.

“A martial art fight, nice,” Bastian said eyes glued to the fight down below.

“I didn’t know Onyx was so skilled,” Noir responded genuinely shocked at his teammates demonstration.

“Yupp, the two of them have been training in martial arts for as long as I can remember,” A female voice said from Noir’s left. He nearly leapt out of his seat from shock when he noticed next to him was a young redheaded girl. Her hair was short and she wore a pink skirt with a corset like top that was black, white, and silver, with a heart shaped hole around her cleavage. “Who are you?” Noir managed to get out nervously.

“I’m Nora,” the girl said over cheerfully. Bastian and Ivan both turned their attention from the fight to face the new stranger who had just appeared next to them. Ivan was the first to respond.

“Hey,” the wolf faunus started “you’re the girl who played with my ears the first day of school.”

“Yupp,” Nora responded with glee.

“Why are you here?” Ivan asked

“More importantly, what do you mean by those two training as long as you can remember?” Bastian asked indignantly.

“Ren, Onyx, and I grew up together. At school they both learned martial arts, I took a much more, blunt approach,” she said giggling mischievously. Noir was starting to feel like this girl was beyond hyper even more than Ruby was. “Whenever they get into a sparring match they both have a mutual agreement that they won’t use their weapons or aura.” Nora then went back to watching to fight barely holding still in her seat. Noir turned his attention back to his team mate who seemed to be holding his own against his opponent with just his sheer skill. Each punch, chop, and kick seemed so precise between the two ninja like huntsmen. Bastian and Nora could barely hold onto their excitement. Finally Bastian let out a shout.

“C’mon Onyx score one for team NOIS,” the giant yelled. Noir and Ivan looked at the massive huntsmen like he was going a bit overboard. Nora glared at the giant before standing on her chair to yell.

“DON”T YOU DARE LOSE REN OR I AM EATING ALL YOUR PANCAKES AND SYRUP,” She yelled. Everyone in the room looked at the hyper redhead. Ren pushed Onyx back before turning to address the hyper.

“Nora, those pancakes are for the entire team not for you to,” before Ren could finish He got a full haymaker punch to the gut that sent him flying into a wall cracking it.

“Keep our focus Ren,” Onyx said slyly. Ren couldn’t vocalize his response due to be knocked unconscious from the impact.

“Well done Mr. Howlin,” Goodwitch said as she made notes on her scroll pad. Onyx simply bowed to show his gratitude for the praise he had received. “However next time I suggest not breaking the school in the process.”

“Yes ma’am,” Onyx responded sheepishly. He then walked back to the rest of his team while the other two members of Ren’s team gathered him up to the stands. When Onyx made it to the top of the stadium he was greeted with a barrages of high fives from all his team members. Nora sat sourly at glared at him.

“That’s cheating,” the redhead said sulking.

“Hey all was fair, you shouldn’t have distracted him and he shouldn’t have been distracted,” Onyx said flatly smiling at his triumph. “Besides Nora, shouldn’t you be sitting with your own team?” Nora almost immediately perked up.

“Oh right,” she said “Bye,” she then rushed so fast that it seemed like she disappeared into thin air. Onyx then sat down next to Noir relaxing from his exhausting fight. Goodwitch continued to call out people into matches. The four boys enjoyed watching the fights that ensued after. They Yang take out Dove, a member of Team CRDL and then they watched as Weiss fought against a boy named Jaune, and defeat with great ease. Then they watched Nora smash Sky and finally the dark haired girl from team RWBY beat Russel. After the field cleared again Goodwitch announced the next pairing.

“Let’s see the next pairing is: from Team NOIS, Sebastian Mortick…” Noir, Onyx, and Ivan cheered as the dark giant got up spear in hand and made his way to the arena. “…versus Pyrrha Nikos from team JNPR,” as soon as Goodwitch had finished speaking a girl with long red hair stood up and started making her way down to the arena. She wore a brown and gold corset like outfit. In one hand she clutched a golden-bronze shield in one hand and gold and red sword in the other.

“Wow I can’t wait to watch this,” Noir started to say getting over zealous about the fight that was about to ensue. “Bastian has his work cut out for him.” Onyx nodded in agreement; Both Noir and Onyx were aware of the reputation that the red headed Amazon had made for herself. Ivan just looked at Noir like he had two heads.

“What do you mean?” the faunus asked his two team mates. Noir turned giving the wolf faunus a look of shock.

“Pyrrha is a famous fighter from Minstrel, she is famous for being untouchable,” Noir stated sounding like a fanboy of the Amazon.

“Let’s see how good they both really are,” Onyx said flatly to divert his team’s attention from talking to the fight that was ensuing. Down at the Arena the two fighters took their battle stances waiting for Goodwitch to announce for the fight to begin.

“Begin,” the blonde instructor yelled. Pyrrha was the first to attack; she took a defensive stance as she transformed he sword into a hunting rifle and fired a barrage of bullets at the large huntsmen. Bastian spun his spear around blocking the bullets. As soon as she finished firing Bastian wasted no time transforming his weapon to bow form. He quickly shot a volley of ice arrows. The young amazon did her best to dodge the arrows until one made contact with her leg freezing it to the ground. Pyrrha looked surprised. Bastian took advantage of her surprise and transformed his weapon back into a spear. He then charged and he was close enough the thrusted his spear at her. Pyrrha blocked each thrust with her shield. She transformed her weapon into its sword form and thrust it into the ice that had her leg captive once her leg was free she used the momentum from his lunge on her shield to push him off balance, and then she swung her sword.

“Crap,” Bastian said out loud. Before the sword could come into contact with him he flipped his spear over his shoulder and blocked her strike. His spear continued towards the ground until it pierced the ground. Then Bastian used his spear like a pole and spun round landing a massive kick sending trrhe amazon flying off balance. As she landed prone on the ground Bastian took his spear out and rushed over and lunged at her aimed directly for Pyrrha. The spear looked like it was about to pin her down before a strange sensation came and suddenly his spear slightly missed and hit the ground near her arm with the spear. She then regained her composure and spun kicking the back of his leg bringing the giant to his knees “What the heck just,” Bastian started to say.

Before he could finish Pyrrha used her shield to smash the giant in the face stunning him. She then quickly before he could regain his composure grappled his head with her legs. She then spun around bringing the massive huntsman with her and smashing him on the ground, knocking him out.

“I’m sorry,” Pyrrha said as she stood up. She put her weapons away and tried to wake up Bastian. The giant was completely out cold from the unexpected impact. Goodwitch had a medic summoned and two men with a stretcher came and barely got the large huntsmen out. Ivan’s jaw dropped at the sight he just saw.

“She knocked him out,” Ivan said sounding scared of what just happened. Noir just busted out laughing.

“Like we said untouchable,” Noir said still laughing. He knew that Bastian would have trouble against the famed warrior. “I can’t wait to see the next fight.”

“That may be hard to do,” Onyx said responding to Noir’s comment.

“What does that mean?” Noir said responding to his ninja teammate.

“By my calculations the next match is,” Onyx started to say before Goodwitch cut him off.

“To conclude our first day the final match will be between from Team RWBY, Ruby Rose, versus Noir Pendragon from Team NOIS.” Noir face palmed himself, he never expected his first match up to be against Ruby. He reluctantly got up and went to the arena, dragging his sheaths behind him. When he arrived he noticed Ruby was standing forty paces away from him with Crescent Rose drawn and ready for combat. He thought to himself for a little girl she seemed intimidating with the scythe.

“Noir c’mon, get serious,” Ruby said almost giggling “Let’s show everyone what Signal kids can do.” Noir smiled, the girl looked so hyped for the fight.

“Alright then,” Noir responded. He stabbed his handles into each sheath, from one he pulled a light blue sword blade and in the other he pulled a green sword blade out. He then dropped both sheaths and got his into his combat stance. Ruby looked at the dark haired swordsman with a confused look on her face.

“Only two?” Ruby asked confused.

“Yupp only two, to challenge myself,” Noir responded.

“No offense Noir, but you will need more than two blades to beat me,” Ruby said sounding confident in her abilities. Noir smirked in response.

“Care to make a wager on that?” Noir asked.

“Sure, when I win you let me drive Hornet for the weekend.”

“And when I win I get your secret cookie jar,” Noir responded with.

“Deal,” Ruby responded. Goodwitch then announced for them to start their fight. Ruby rushed in a red flower petal blur she stopped behind Noir giving a full swing at him. Noir quickly blocked with the blue blade. Before Ruby could process what happened he flipped his grip on his green coated blade and fired a shot. A powerful air gust hit Ruby full force sending her flying backwards. Noir quickly pivoted around and fired from the blue blade a few ice shots at Ruby. Ruby used a few strikes from Crescent Rose to block the Ice blasts. Noir then rushed the young girl swords swinging.

Ruby fired a few rounds from the sniper rifle scythe. Noir easily blocked the shots with his blades. As soon as he got close enough Ruby tried to use her rose twister technique to maneuver around Noir. As she started the twister Noir fired from his Air dust blade knocking ruby off balance and prone to the ground. Before Ruby could get up he fired a few blast of ice onto Ruby’s hands and legs immobilizing the red headed huntress. Before she could break free Noir proceeded to sit on the girl and activated his semblance; intensifying his gravity so it was twice as normal.

“Surrender,” Noir said playfully.

“I will never give up,” Ruby started to say. She then broke the ice on her legs and tried to push up off the ground.

“Suit yourself,” Noir responded, he then intensified the gravity to five times normal. Ruby fell back onto the ground now could barely move from Noirs increasing weight. It didn’t take long in this state before Ruby to speak.

“Okay okay, I surrender,” Ruby managed to croak out. Noir deactivated his semblance and stood up. He proceeded to help the young girl up. She put away her scythe and then put her hands on her hips.

“Just so you know you can’t kill a grim by sitting on it,” Ruby said snottishly. Noir laughed at her silliness.

“Maybe not, but I did win the cookie jar, I expect it delivered to my room before dinner,” Noir said. He then turned around and grabbed his sheaths leaving a slightly devastated Ruby in the arena.
