We open up to Cardin Winchester with The Executioner perched on his shoulder and June Arc opposite him with Crocea Mors drawn, leaning on her weapon as if exhausted, in the spotlight shining on the Beacon Academy auditorium stage.

She looks at Cardin, who notices his opponent's tiredness, and June gathers her strength to charge forward and swing her blade at Cardin, only for him to jump out of the way. June looks back, surprised, as The Executioner sends June's shield - and herself - flying back. Now only armed with her sword, June continued to try and attack, but is blocked by the mace's hilt. Their weapons locked, Cardin forces himself up, towering over a struggling June.

Cardin: IT'S CARDINING TIME!

June: Wut?

June is cut short as Cardin knees her in the gut, making June drop her sword and fall to the ground in pain. Cardin raises his mace and points it down on a worried June.

Cardin: Checkmate.

After he said that, the buzzer rings, the lights come back on, and Glynda's voice is heard.

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

Meanwhile June still lays on the floor in defeat and Pyrrha & Cardin looks sad, Glynda turns her head to look at the losing warrior as she pulls out her scroll with her low, blinking stats and that of her entire team.

Glynda: Mrs. 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: Don't give up, June-Girl.*June looks up at him* A few more practice sessions and training and you'll be able to face 20 Beowolves without breaking a sweat.*smiles and offers a hand to pick her up* C'mon, get up fearless leader.

June:*smiles and takes his hand as she gets up* Thanks.

Cardin:*pats her back* Your welcome.

Glynda:*to the seated and standing students, such as: Yang Xiao Long, punching the air in anticipation; Weiss Schnee, shaking her fists with an excited smile; and Ruby Rose, shaking her entire body with enthusiastic energy while squealing softly* 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!

Glynda:*checks the time* We have time for more match. Any volunteers?

DB/n:*raises his hand* I'll fight!

Glynda: Okay. Anyone else?

DB/n: Actually I want to fight*points* him.

Everyone looks at where he's to see.
