Powerless In a Powerful World

Lunchtime Bully

Y/N POV

A couple months after my fight in Port's class I now find myself in a woman named Goodwitch's class. Looking into the arena I see Jaune fighting a boy named Cardin. Mostly Jaune is doing well. But Cardin has the superior strength which is quickly overwhelming Jaune.

Cardin: "Come on Scrawny. Do yourself a favor and give up while you still can."

Jaune: "Not on your-"

He's silenced by a knee to his stomach. He falls to his side where Cardin raises his mace. Thankfully Goodwitch stops the match looking at us.

Goodwitch: "As you can see students. Jaune's aura is in the red area. This would mean that he's incapable of going on."

She looks at him.

Goodwitch: "You're capable of handling yourself. But do try to think more on whether to attack or defend when your aura gets low. Doing that spells the difference between staying alive and getting eaten. We wouldn't want anything bad to happen would we?"

Cardin: *quietly* "I would."

I narrow my eyes hearing that remark. The bell rings dismissing us to lunch. I stack my tray taking a seat with my teammates. 

Ruby: "I see your arm's moving nicely."

Ren: "What was wrong with it?"

I show them my injury which is now nothing more than a scar.

Y/N: "During initiation a one armed Beowolf bit down on my shoulder."

Weiss: "I seriously can't believe we didn't notice it."

Yang: "And despite walking in front of us in his underwear."

Y/N: "I've never done that."

Yang: "I know what I saw."

She winks at me again. A shiver runs down my spine when a hand is placed on top of my head. Looking I see Pyrrha smiling while now gently rubbing my head.

Pyrrha: "Thank Oum you survived."

Nora: *whisper* "Anybody else find this weird?"

Jaune: *whisper* "Yeah. Pyrrha's usually never like this."

Voice: "Ow, please stop!"

I turn seeing Cardin yanking on a rabbit Faunus' ears. I narrow my eyes walking to him. I then tap his shoulder making him look down at me.

Cardin: "What do you want runt?"

Y/N: "I want you to unhand her this instant."

Cardin: "Or what?"

Y/N: "I'll make you."

He and his crew laugh their heads off. He looks back at me wiping away a tear.

Cardin: "You're funny kid. But you're tiny. How on earth could you ever force someone as big as me to do anything?"

I smile reaching into a pouch. I hold my hand out rolling the striker. The rocket launches impaling his special place. When it explodes he's sent flying through the wall, into the courtyard. I face his teammates smiling. I then reach for another pouch.

Y/N: "And of you lads feel like going for a ride too?"

They run away in fear. I lower my hand looking at the rabbit girl.

Y/N: "You okay?"

She holds her ears.

Rabbit: "He pulled them really hard."

I reach out lightly rubbing them.

Y/N: "Does this help?"

Her face explodes red.

Rabbit: "Y-yes."

She closes her eyes and smiles while leaning into my touch. When both ears have been rubbed I let go. At that moment I swear I see her pout.

Rabbit: "Thank you..."

Y/N: "Y/N. Y/N L/N."

Out of the blue she leans kissing my cheek. When she pulls back red consumes her cheeks.

Velvet: "Velvet Scarlatina. Thank you for sticking up for me. I wish there were more people like you in this world."

She walks away smiling. Meanwhile I stand there like an idiot. I then finally speak again.

Y/N: "You're welcome."
