All of us were asleep. It was about 8 and the sun was risen.

Me and Regret were woken up to a loud bang from next door. Our side was closet to team RWBY's dorm.

I heard Regret groan. He wasn't pleased by the fact that RWBY was doing only God knows what in there.

I open my eyes and I was puzzled by the noises I also heard from in there.

"Do... you hear construction?"

"Yeahhhh......"

"I'll go check out what it is."

As soon as I open the door, my eyes hurt for a second from re-adjusting to the light. I go to knock on the door. And the first person to answer was Ruby.

"Hey Nightmare.... did we-?"

"Yes. Mind if I ask what's going on?"

"We're just re-arranging."

I look behind her to see the beds in a pile along with the suitcases they brought. I don't even know how they managed to do this.

"I take you're not a morning person?"

"Nope. Never was. Well you have with that. I'm gonna get ready."

"We have our first class with Prof. Goodwitch. Just want to let you know."

"Thanks. See you in a bit Rubes."

I shut the door behind me and everyone was awake getting ready.

I proceeded to do the same. I put on my normal combat clothes because Mrs. Goodwitch's class was sparring.

And then we went to the lockers to get our weapons and than off to her class. In the event we were picked, we needed to be prepared.

There was a large open room with seats overlooking an arena. They were distanced apart so that we wouldn't hurt the bystanders by accident.

Glynda appears in the middle and begins her introduction about this class.

"Good morning evryone. In this class, we will test your skill and as well as your strength to determine if you will qualify for the Vytal Festival Tournament. Today's match-ups will be picked randomly, but as the year goes on, you can choose your own matches if you please. Now, has everyone gotten their weapons?"

The entire class nods their heads.

"Good. Now today's match will be between Nightmare Satero and Yang Xiao Long."

We jump down to the arena and take our positions.

I draw my sword while Yang converts her bracelets in to her shot-gauntlets, otherwise known as Ember Cellica.

She charges torwards me, going on the offensive. I deflect most of her blasts with Dark Drinker. I teleport behind her, put my sword away and start firing blasts of void energy.

She managed to dodge all of them. I released a flurry of void blasts in different directions that arch and track her. Her aura was down to 67%. But she got back up and started firing her own concussive blasts that traveled torwards me.

They were easy to dodge, but one of them knocked the sword out of my hand. I didn't have time to draw my energy sword from my side as she was already close to me. This forced me into hand to hand combat with her.

She landed half of her shots on me which lowers my aura down to 27%. I unleashed a void blast from my fist which sends her into the air. While she's still floating I use a nova bomb that sends her into the ground and causes a purple explosion.

I look at the meter and Yang's aura was just a hair above the line. The level of aura to lose the match was 15% or lower. Hers was 16%. And man, I regret it too.

She stood back up angrier than ever. Her hair glowed and her eyes went from lilac to red in an instant. Fire spread all around her as she charged at me with very quick strikes, more painful too. As she launched me in the air she punched me into the ground which made my aura go to 7%.

"And it would appear that the winner would be Yang Xiao Long. Her aura being at 16%. Any lower and the match would be over sooner. Remember Mr. Satero to gauge your aura to use it both offensively and defensively."

I manage to cough up my words as I struggle to get back up. "Ughh.... got it."

Yang goes to help me up from the ground. I could barely move at this point.

"Yang, what is your semblance?"

"I can absorb damage and come back to use stronger attacks. The downside though is that I feel the full force of everything that hits me. So long as I remain conscious."

"Thats... okay well that's just overpowered."

Hey guys sorry for my inactivity lately. I just haven't had the drive to make another part. But I'll get back on it so don't think I quit the story. Lol. Anyways hope you guys enjoy and I'll talk to you all later.
