*Today is a new day in Beacon and Jaune is sparring against his opponent, Cardin Winchester. Because of his panting and him leaning on Crocea Mors, Jaune was clearly outmatched.*
Cardin: This is the part where you lose.
*Jaune looks at Cardin with a serious face.*
Jaune: Over my dead-!
*Jaune was cut off by Cardin kneeing him in gut, causing hik to drop on the ground in pain. Cardin was about to finish the defenseless Jaune until Glynda's voice causes him to stop.*
Glynda: Cardin, that's enough! Students, as you can see, Mr. Arc's Aura has now dropped into the red. In a tournament-styled dual, this would indicate that Jaune is no longer fit for battle, and that the official may call the match.
*Glynda looks down at Jaune while tapping a few buttons on her scroll. Sitting in the bleachers, worried and concerned, is Pyrrha and Y/N.*
Glynda: Mr. 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: Speak for yourself...
*As Glynda continues to talk about Aura and the Vytal Festival, Y/N whispers to Pyrrha.*
Y/N: Hey, Pyrrha.
Pyrrha: It's about Jaune, isn't it?
Y/N: You guessed it. What's wrong with him?
Pyrrha: I don't know...
Glynda: Enough about the Festival, we have time for one more match. Cardin, who do you choose to fight?
Cardin: Hmm... Insie, whinsie, minsie... I choose him.
*Cardin points at Y/N.*
Glynda: Do you accept, Y/N?
Y/N: Yeah!
*Y/N walks down to the stage.*
Glynda: As I said before, if your aura drops to the red first, your opponent wins.
Y/N: Okay Goodwitch.
*Teams RWBY, JNPR, and (Y)NLL are cheering for Y/N.*
Cardin: How cute. Your friends and teammates are cheering for you, but knowing that you will lose.
Y/N: How funny. No one is cheering for you. You know why? It's because you tried to finish off someone helpless. So, everyone thinks you're a coward.
Cardin: Tch. You should know when to keep your mouth shut, kid.
Y/N: Yeah, I don't see the fun in that...
Glynda: You may start!
*Cardin runs at Y/N while holding his mace above his head.*
Cardin: AHHHHHH!!!!!
Y/N: Hmm? How familiar..
*When Cardin swinged his mace at Y/N, he summons Lost Shift and quickly blocks the attack.*
Y/N: You remind me of someone...
*Y/N kicks Cardin's right leg, making his aura drop to the yellow.*
Y/N: Get this. Some time ago, I met this funny guy, who mugged a little girl. So, I went with her to get her money back, and the mugger held a knife against her throat.
*Y/N puts Lost Shift in sniper mode and shoots a lighting bullet at Cardin. As the bullet hits Cardin's chestplate, it shocks his whole body, dropping his aura in the orange.*

FanfictionThis is an old fanfic that I started writing back in 2018, and discontinued it around 2020-2021. I don't think too fondly of this book since I don't like how I handled writing it at the time, but it has sentimental value for some of my friends and m...
