Ruby and I are training hand to hand combat while Jaune, Nora and Ren watches.

I hit Ruby straight in her face. Ruby recoils from the blow and looks visibly angry.

Ozcar: Haha!

Ruby then hit me back and I recoil from her pretty good punch. I saw Jaune and Nora wince at the sight of my bleeding nose.

Ruby: Ha! Yes! I did it!

Her brief moment of cheering is replaced with concern as she looks back.

Ruby: Oh my gosh! I'm sorry!

Ozcar: It's fine. I can take a punch.

Ozpin: (mentally) You forgot to engage your Aura, again.

Ozcar: No shit. I'm not used to fighting with an Aura.

Ozpin: (mentally) You will in time.

Time. Almost moving forward. Never looking back. But that could be changed.... i know it can.

Before i get too deep into it, i wiped the blood with the cloth and prepared for training.

Ozpin: (mentally) Mind if I give it a shot?

Ozcar: Sure. Give her hell.

Ozpin took control.

Ozpin: Not bad, Miss Rose. But Ozcar doesn't have the years of training that you do. Or I do.

Ozpin engages our Aura and determinedly approaches Ruby.

Ruby: (nervously) Oh, ha, well, maybe we should uh... take a break.

Ozpin attacks Ruby with a few punches aimed at her head, forcing her onto the defensive until he lands a blow to her face which knocks her back several feet. Ozpin closes the gap with a leap and kicks her in the face. Ruby leaps at Ozpin to throw a left cross which Ozpin evades by ducking and retaliates with a headbutt from below.

Nora/Ozcar: Ouch.

Ozpin: The next time you want to throw a left cross, remember to push off with the appropriate foot. And as always, do be aware of any openings.

Ruby: (strained as she sits up) Gooooot it.

Ozpin relinquishes his control and i fell to my knees, panting.

Ruby: Oh! Hey. Are you okay?

Ozcar: Peachy. Just tired.

Ren: Your body isn't used to this kind of training, not to mention generating a defensive Aura on your own. It takes intense concentration at first, but in time it will become second nature, allowing you to deflect attacks and gradually heal your wounds. After that, you can begin focusing on your Semblance, whatever that may be.
