Currently teams RWBY and the rest of JNPR were attending Professor Goodwitch's class watching Jaune spar with Cardin. Jaune looks at Cardin, who laughs at his opponent's tiredness, and Jaune gathers his strength to charge forward and swing his blade at Cardin, only for him to jump out of the way. Jaune looks back, surprised, his mace sends Jaune's shield, and himself, flying back. Now only armed with his sword, Jaune tried to attack, but is blocked by the mace's hilt. Their weapons locked, Cardin forces himself up, towering over a struggling Jaune.

Cardin: This is the part where you lose.

Jaune: Over my dead-!

Jaune is cut short as Cardin knees him in the gut, making Jaune drop his sword and fall to the ground in pain. Cardin raises his mace and is about to slam it down on a worried Jaune just when the buzzer rings, the lights come back on, and Glynda Goodwitch's voice causes him to stop.

Glynda: Cardin, that's enough! He relents and walks away as she comes onto the stage, tapping her tablet. Students, as you can see, Mr. Arc's Aura has now dropped into the red. In a tournament-styled duel, this would indicate that Jaune is no longer fit for battle and that the official may call the match.

While Jaune still lays on the floor in defeat and Pyrrha Nikos looks sad, Glynda turns her head to look at the losing warrior as he pulls out a smaller tablet with his low, blinking stats and that of his entire team.

Goodwitch: Mr. Arc, it's been weeks now. Please try to refer to your scroll during combat. Gauging your Aura will help you decide when it's appropriate to attack, or when it is better to move to a more... defensive strategy. We wouldn't want you to be gobbled up by a Beowolf, now would we?

Cardin: Speak for yourself.

Goodwitch turns to the seated and standing students, such as... Yang, who is punching the air in anticipation. Weiss, shaking her fists with an excited smile. Lastly Ruby Rose, shaking her entire body with enthusiastic energy while squealing softly.

Goodwitch: Remember, everyone, the Vytal Festival is only a few months away! It won't be long before students from the other kingdoms start arriving in Vale, so keep practicing! Those who choose to compete in the combat tournament will be representing all of Vale! 

Multiple people raise their hands however, Goodwitch focused on two students who were currently whispering to each other.

In the cafeteria, Nora was telling a story to the entire table that consist of teams JNPR, RWBY, Dan, and Drago.

Nora: So! There we were, in the middle of the night...

Ren: It was day.

Nora: We were surrounded by ursai...

Ren: They were Beowolves.

Nora: Dozens of them!

Ren: Two of 'em.

Nora: But they were no match... And in the end, Ren and I took them down and made a boatload of lien selling Ursa skin rugs!

Ren: *sighs* She's been having this recurring dream for nearly a month now.

Drago: (Chuckles) And I thought my friend Preyas was the imaginative one.

Pyrrha: *looking at her leader* Jaune? Are you okay?

Jaune: (snapping out of it, turning back toward them) Huh? Oh, yeah! Why?

Ruby: It's just that you seem a little... not okay...

Dan: Yeah man you've been kinda down since Goodwitch's class.

Jaune: Guys, I'm fine. Seriously! Look!
