RWBY: The story of team CAMO

Chapter 5 Cinder

Then one day in a combat class we had one on one tournament battles in random selection and both Musket and Olivia was impressive as always and had not a problem going to the top 8 in the quarter finals even i was up there with them, i had practiced a lot with my Ghost semblance and could handle it more than well in combat. With my halberd i was a heavy hitting and being able to disappear and appear in matter of an instant, i was not a easy target to get to all sow not surpassingly Cinder was with the top 8 which was expected. A uncomfortable feeling was like a fog over the stage, everyone knew about the hard time team CAMO have had the past mouths and on that, there was all so a lot of rumors going by which none of us really cared about but still none of us looked on each other and no one said a word.

And like we all expected all four of us made it passed and now the big fight between team CAMO was about to begin. Cinder against Musket and Me against Olivia, Musket was more than thrilled to been able to put Cinder on her place to quota him exactly though i was worried. The whole school came to see the final two matches between the famous team CAMO. The first fight was on its way with Musket and Cinder head to head Cinder didn't say much but Musket had a lot to say in the trash talking part. The fight took a long time until it was over and Musket had fallen, Muskets aura was completed and Cinder was close to be out as well until the most unspeakably happened.

After the horn of victory had calmed Cinder buckled her bow and shot a last arrow straight towards Musket who had problem even stand and wouldn't have had a chance to avoid it. The glass arrow shattered on Olivia's shield who had just been able to get between the arrow and Muskets back, everyone froze to ice even me i could only se to believe as i felt sick, Cinder was about to kill Musket without a second thought. Olivia who had only been able to save Musket because she was watching from the entrees of the stage became furious and was screaming her heart out about how much of an idiot she was and if she really had lost her mind and that if Cinder would ever try that again Olivia would kill her. I was more than just scared, i was traumatized and couldn't move a muscle all Cinder answered was that she wanted to finish the job and walked off.

We never saw Cinder until the final match but before that i needed to have my fight with Olivia. Musket had been sent to the recovery room and was going to be just fine but still what do i do now? I would not believe what had happened, i know Cinder seemed to be out of it but not that she would go to such lengths. I tried to focus for my fight with Olivia but i could not shake that images of that arrow fly, i got eye contact with Olivia and it was like i could read her mind through her eyes, she could not believe it ether but still it happened.

Olivia was standing with her head down and said she was sorry but she could not let that incident go by, so she would do everything in her power to beat me and get to the finals so she could face Cinder and that was when it hit me, Olivia was at a point when you where no longer able to reason with her which is to no surprise after what we just saw but still it felt wrong to just abandoned Cinder when we all knew something was wrong with her, it was exactly that which made me clear on one thing. I was to win against Olivia and face Cinder myself and through that fight i would do everything to reach her through defeating her, it sounded so obscured that i even would have a chance against her but still i have gotten so strong sense i started here and i will show them all just how much. I took a deep breath and stood ready, the match began, the fight that would decide who would face Cinder in the final match had started and me and Olivia gave everything we had.

I had not faced Olivia in battle for a long time, not even in practice but still this was it, everything Olivia had was in this fight that i could tell for certain and all for that one reason to help her friend and team mate. Olivia lacks in the speed department but still she's not slow and the little she lacks in speed she compensated with a ferocious attacks and in a even more terrifying deafens. She knew my jumping patterns through my semblance so she could easily read my moves so getting a hit in would not be easy. We have trained side by side for about three years so we both knew each outers way of fighting and thinking, Olivia was truly amazing and didn't disappoint but being up agents each outer like this with the same goal but for different reasons felt heart breaking.

I told Olivia that i did not like the feeling of fighting like this, the heartbreak, i could see tears in Olivia's eyes and knew she felt the same and that she was not longer infused with rage but was focusing on getting to the final. It felt like a eternity and the only sound that was heard was our weapons against each outer and us both trying to catch air for our lungs, throughout the fight Olivia started to see why it was i was fighting and on how much i was focused on getting Cinder back to her old self so we all would be able to be a team again and becoming hunter together.

I miss the old Cinder, the real Cinder, i miss her smile and the way she always amazed me in combat and in class, how she was a role model to all team captains in the school, Cinder was truly amazing and somehow i know that she is still in there. Would i reach her if i fought her? If i actually defeat her would i be able to reach out to her? So many people have fought her before and she have won every time so do i even stand a chance? I have come far but is it enough against her? What is the difference between me and everyone else that have faced her?

I could only wonder while i still was in one of the most intense fights in my life, i imagined her face from the early days of school when me and her trained together and i finally understood what was different from me, she was the first person i meet dawn in the labyrinth and my first friend, i probably knew her better than anyone and i wanted her back, i want Cinder back! The whole difference between me and everyone else that have fought her is that i care for her. Everyone have fought her to win but i will go up against her and i will fight for the only reasons that i care for her and that i will make her came back to us as the captain of team CAMO.

That was my final though before my fight was over and i had beaten Olivia. Olivia who was in tears fell into my chest and put her arms around me, she said that this time it was me who had saved her from herself and i would go forward to save Cinder.
