Noir POV

I look around trying to pin point his location. What's clearly a fist slams into my jaw sending me stumbling back. I look only to have another fist hit my stomach. Growing angry I deliver a wide left swing only to hit air.

Louie: "Missed me."

A trash can is thrown into my back. I pivot launching a strand of web. It only connects to the side of a building. Something hits the back on my knee taking me down. A piece of metal is then swung into my jaw sending me skidding across the floor.

Louie: "Give up hero. I'm at the advantage."

I pick myself up.

Noir: "You've got your trick, and I've got mine."

I close my eyes recalling that moment with my dad.

*flashback*

I pant as I hear dad's voice.

Y/N: "Watch out."

I try to dodge only to have something sent into my face. I scream in frustration lifting my blindfold.

Noir: "This' impossible, I can't fight blindfolded!"

He walks to me putting his arm around me.

Y/N: "I understand your frustration. But listen when I say that you got this."

Noir: "You're one to talk. You're not the one fighting without eye sight."

He remains silent.

Y/N: "I want you to try something."

I look at him.

Y/N: "Never over rely on what you see. When your eyes fail you your body will become you're greatest asset. If you're willing to listen, it'll tell you exactly where the danger is."

*end of flashback*

I softly exhale.

Noir: "Listen to my body."

The world goes dead silent. Through the ear piercing silence I hear footsteps coming my way. The hair on my neck moves making me limbo. I feel the breeze of an attack hit me.

Noir: *internally* "He's open"

I deliver a right hook that collides into ribs. A cough is heard. Got him.

Louie: "Stupid kid!!!"

My stomach aches making me lean back. This allows me to attach a web strand to Louie. Acting quick I pull and sling him over my shoulder. I open my eyes to see the side of a building be dented. Louie then appears landing on his neck.

Louie: "Ouch."

He passes out making me smile.

Noir: "Thanks dad."

Cops finally arrive arresting Louie. I look down to see some of his saliva. I lean down and reach for the pocket on my thigh. Now equipped with a tube I collect his saliva.

Noir: "I need to find out how he gained that ability."

I cap the tube and make my way back to Beacon. Once I discard my costume  I make my way to someone who can help me in my quest for answers. I reach their lab and gently knock.

Noir: "Anyone here?"

There's a heavy cluttering. A male rabbit Faunus then runs to me.

Noir: "Hey Lucky."

Lucky: "Miss Noir, how may I help you this time?"

I withdraw the tube.

Noir: "I need you to analyze this for me."

He grabs the tube looking it over.

Lucky: "Follow me."

I follow him to the back of his lab.

Lucky: "Sorry for the mess. I was working late again."

Noir: "No worries."

He places the sample under a microscope that's connected to a computer. He taps on the keyboard running the sample through a large database. While this happens I watch as his floppy and non floppy rabbit ears twitch. 

Lucky: "So where is it you got this sample?"

Noir: "I got it while fighting."

Oh yeah, he knows my secret. Guess it pays to be smart.

Lucky: "Well it's interesting to say the least."

I tilt my head as a chart is finally displayed. He looks it over hmming.

Lucky: "Oh yeah, really interesting."
