A few matches have gone by such as team SSSN, CVFY, JNPR and some from other kingdoms aswell. Today was our match against NDGO. We were currently in the locker room preparing for our match.

Ezio: Ed, make sure you don't get excited when you see them.

Edward: Seriously, Ezio?

Ezio: Just telling you not to get distracted during the fight.

Edward: Haha, very fuckin' funny, asshat.

Y/n: *sigh* Why did I agree to partake in the tournament?

Connor: Just to test your skills?

Y/n: I'll use that as my motivation. Thanks, Connor.

Altaïr: I think we're all ready. 

Y/n: Alright, team, let's give 'em a real show.

They all nod and was start walking out of the locker room and into some tunnels before coming out in the stadium.

Port: *speaker* Please welcome the best team in Beacon Academy... Team [insert team name]!

The crowd erupted into hundreds of cheering for us. All the attention felt odd since we usually preform stealth missions but it was welcome. We continue to walk out into the middle of the stadium while Port introduced team NDGO to the crowd and the crowd also shared a cheering for them. They continue walking until we meet them in the center of the arena.

Edward: Hey, girls.

Nebula: Hey Ed, hey Connor!

Ezio: I'm hoping you girls can put up a decent fight.

Dew: I think we're gonna show ya.

Y/n: Don't get so cocky.

The biome randomizers came up and started rolling. After a few seconds they landed on a pirate ship and a desert.

Gwen: Great, home turf!

Altaïr: We know Vacuo like every other kingdom. 

Port began counting down while we all readied our weapons. The air began to thicken as did the tension between us. When Port started the match we all ran at each other. Dew had Ezio and I while Edward was against Octavia, Altaïr was against Nebula and Connor was against Gwen. My sickles collided with Dews spear as did Ezio's sword, she knocked us back and used her spear to conjure some tornadoes. Ezio and I stick our blades into the ground and hold them tightly as to not get blown away. Once the tornadoes were weak enough I jump forward and slash at her which took half her aura off. I kick her into the air where Ezio grabs her by the throat and slams her into the ground taking the rest of her aura off. 

Port: *speaker* Incredible teamwork from Ezio and Y/n!

Ezio: I'll help Connor, you help Altaïr!

I nod and run to Altaïr who was circling Octavia. I run in and sweep her off her feet and throw her into a large rock causing it to shatter into pieces.

Altaïr: Ok, that was unnecessary. 

Y/n: But it was cool.

Octavia got up from the rubble and ran at us. She ran at me but failed to see Altaïr coming in from the side forcing her to block his attack. I slash a few times at her taking alot off her aura before she tried to slash at me but I parried her attacks.

Octavia: I guess we underestimated your team.

Y/n: Seems like it.

She runs at me but I slide between her legs and kick her in the back causing her to be sent flying onto the ship.

Y/n: Altaïr, finish her off. I'll help Ed.

Altaïr: Understood! 

He ran off while I run at Gwen with my sickles. Her eyes widen at my sudden appearance but before I could attack her, Nebula was thrown onto her causing them both to fall to the ground. I look over at Ezio and Connor who smirk and high five each other.

Edward: That was somethin'.

Y/n: Yes it was.

I look at the aura levels and see that Nebula and Gwen had taken each others aura out while Octavia's was slowly depleting. Ezio and Connor walk over to us as we all watch Altaïr and Octavia from a distance.

Connor: Should we help?

Edward & Ezio: Nah, he's fine.

We continue to watch Altaïr and Octavia and to my surprise, Altaïr didn't get hit once like in every other fight he's been in. Impressive to say the least. He cuts the mast off the ship and nearly crushes Octavia with it but she dodged out of the way and fires at him but he blocked all the shots. Altaïr then kicked her into the air and back into the ships deck which caused it to break in open and Octavia's aura to completely deplete.

Port: *speaker* An excellent display of combat preformed by [insert team name]!

Oobleck: *speaker* At the rate of their skill, they will most definitely win the tournament! 

Altaïr regroups with us and we leave the arena back into the locker rooms. We then left the locker rooms and into the open area where people could buy food, drinks and other things. My team walked around before finding an airship that was leaving for Beacon. We boarded it and found Alexios and Kassandra on it so we walked over to them and sat with them. 

Alexios: Impressive match, oi fíloi mou. (my friends)

Kassandra: Agreed. I'd say you impressed alot of people.

Ezio: I'd hope so.

Y/n: Ezio, we don't need your ego getting any bigger than it already is.

Ezio looked insulted which make us all laugh. After a while of joking and talking, the bullhead landed at Beacon where a large crowd was gathered around the the courtyard so my team and I decided to see what was going on. When we arrive we see two people battling and I recognize them both. Winter Schnee and my uncle, Qrow.
