Team Topaz

Ashton

"Special training?" Olivia had asked. "Yea I was talking to Ozpin and I asked if we could have a secret training room only we can use." Takeda explained. "The thing is that I can only train you one at a time." "You train us? What makes you qualified?" Zan asked. "Well for one I'm the leader and I wanna see what you guys are made of and help make you better." Takeda said. "I'm all for it." I said. "Same here." "Sure." Olivia and Zan agreed to. "So I'll train with Ashton on Mondays , Olivia on Wednesday, and Zan gets Friday. All others day are rest days."

That was few days ago. Now it's Monday. Its almost six and me and Takeda are walking around the school. "You ready?" he asked me. I don't what to expect but I still answered. "Ready." we turned the corner and there was a big metal door. Takeda walked over to a key panel and put in a code.the door opened up and inside was a giant white open space. I walked in amazed. "Since when did Ozpin have this?" Takeda walked in behind me. "He said he use to train down here too. Said we can use as much as we want." Takeda took off his wrist bands and dropped them to the floor. "Alright first things first. Lets start with some CQC." "Some close quarters combat. Why?" I asked. "Well you did get your ass handed to you by Yang." "Why you gotta bust balls?" I dropped my staff and walked towards him. "Semblance is allowed." Takeda told me.

We bumped fist and then I took the first swing. He ducked under and jabbed at me ribs. I turned and elbowed his face. He stumbled back and I shot him with fire. He fell back on his back. He jumped up and ran at me. He tried to round house kick me but I stepped back and tried to kick him. He grabbed my leg. I shot another fire ball point blank but he pushed my hand aside and pulled me in and punched my face. I stumbled back and he tried to punch me again but I caught his fist. I tried to punch him but he caught my fist. Takeda pushed my arms aside and jumpkicked me back. I got up to my feet quickly. "You have a strong aura." he said. "Thanks." I said. Takeda then vanished. "What the... Where did you go?" I looked around with my guard up. "My semblance is invisibility." Takeda punched my gut. I looked around but he was no where to be seen.

"Next lesson: sensing your enemy." I fell down to the floor hard. He tripped me. I got up and looked around again. "Use your aura. Feel my presents." I don't know how. Something grabbed my hand pulled me, pushed on my neck, and tripped me to the ground. Time and time again I was either punched, kicked or tripped my Takeda. He finally showed himself. "Ok that's enough of that. Well try again next time." I was panting hard. "I can still keep going." I protested. "We're moving on." I gave in. "Fine."

"Ok now your semblance is fire right. Show off for me. Show your strongest attack." "Well the strong flame I can produce was the one where it killed the Nevermore but I don't know how I did that." I said feeling a lil down remembering how I almost died. "Yea it's best we don't do that here though. But what's the second best?" I held out my hands, a ball of fire in each hand. I shot a cyclone of fire straight forward. "Not bad. Can you do that again?" I was panting. "I can..... I can try." Takeda pulled out a remote. He pushed a few buttons and a Nevermore popped out of no where. "Whoa what the heck!?" I freaked out. "Relax it's on dummy mode. It's as real as the real deal so try your move on it." I did as I was told and shot another cyclone. It turned the Nevermore into ash. I fell to my knees. It takes a lot out of me.

"Can you stand up?" Takeda asked me. I got to my feet slowly. "Good. Now do it again." I looked at him. He was serious. He pressed some more buttons and a block of iron appeared. "Melt it." Takeda ordered. I fired my cyclone again. I fell to the ground. I looked up and only a lil bit melted. I layed there panting. "Get up. Try again." I tried to get up but I can't. "Come on man we don't have all day. And we're not moving on until the iron is a puddle." Finally I got up and I fired my cyclone again. It melted about half the iron block. I put all I had left in that. My body weight a ton now and it wasn't getting up from the ground. "Get up now Ashton." I groan trying to move but I was to heavy. "Either you get up now or I'm done training you." Takeda said. I forced myself up, but felt to my weight. "D...Dammit!" I yelled. "Come on don't give up." Takeda said. I tried again. My body hurts and weights a ton. Fight through the pain. I held out my hands, formed two fire balls. "Finish it!" Takeda yelled at me. I let out a tell out a yell as I summoned my cyclone. I shut my eyes and fell down. "Rest up. Well continue when you when you wake up."

I shoot straight up. I was laying on top of grass in the middle of a forest. I got to my feet and looked around. "Takeda!" I shouted. I walked around the forest. There was a waterfall near by. I walked over to it and Takeda was meditating on a rock. "Finally awake I see." he said without looking at me. "How do you feel? Can you summon fire?" I lit a flame above my finger. "Yea but it's not as hot as before. How are we in the forest." I said looking around. Takeda got down from the rock and pressed a button and the forest dissappeared. "Survival simulation. Anyway that's not important right now. Now try to hit a moving target. If you want you can use your bow but I recommend your semblance." Takeda backed up about 10 feet. "I'm gonna run around. I want you hit me, ok. If you take to long I'll give a you a reward for wasting my time." I summoned a fire ball. Nothing to much though.

Takeda ran around as fast as he can. I threw fireballs over and over. It was hard. My arrows are faster than my fire balls. I almost had him a couple times but only hitting air. I sliced through the air with my hand and a wave of fire shot at Takeda. He jumped up into the air. He rolled in the ground when he landed and ran at me. I threw a fire ball at him. He slide under it and got up and kneed me in the gut. I hunched forward clenching my stomach. Takeda got behind me, grabbed me and suplexed me. I rubbed the back of my head. Takeda stood up and looked at his watch. "Trainings done. Lets go." I got up and ran after Takeda who was already at the door. "That's it? What time is it?" "Around 7:00." Takeda said. He was serious. "This place has a different aspect of time. I don't know how but in total we've been here for 5 hours." Takeda explained. "How..... How does Ozpin have something like this?" I was in shock. This is way to much to process. "I'd think it's best not to ask to many questions." He said. Takeda. He was like a totally different person in there. He was more serious. He wasn't his usual play full self. "Hey Takeda." we were walking back to our room. "You didn't show me what you can do." Takeda didn't look at me, he just kept walking. "I'll show you next time. Maybe."
