<Y/n p.o.v.>

Glynda was telling us about Forever Fall.

She wanted us to collect sap from trees.

When we left I noticed that Jaune and Pyrrha were being distant with each other, and I noticed that Cardin and Jaune were hanging out more.

Once we scattered I saw Jaune go with Cardin's team whilst Jaune's team went on their own.

Ika and I went with team RWBY to go get some sap.

"Yo Ika, do you know what's with Cardin and Jaune" I asked.

"You noticed too huh, I thought Pyrrha and Jaune were like best buddies, and now they're being like...super distant" He said.

When we reached the trees we began collecting sap.

Nora was eating the sap.

"Nora, Ren worked hard for that" Ika said.

"Want some" Nora asked.

"Hell yeah" He said.

Sudden change in sides...wow.

He took a small taste, then an actual taste.

He seemed to enjoy it.

"THAT'S IT" He shouted.

We all turned to him.

"What's what" Yang asked.

"I'VE COME UP WITH A NEW RECIPE" Ika said.

"We can taste test for you" Ruby said.

He smirked.

We continued to collect sap.

I then saw something that caught my eye....Jaune.

He was on a hill with team CRDL...and they didn't look like they were up to any good.

Whilst everyone was busy collecting sap I snuck around to get to the 5 of them.

When I snuck around I managed to hear Cardin.

"Cardin, what's going on" Jaune asked.

"Payback" Cardin said.

"Pyrrha" Jaune said.

They were watching her as she collected sap.

"That's the girl, red haired know-it-all, thinks she's so great" Cardin said.

Cardin pulled out a box.

"All right boys, last night Jaune managed to collect an entire box full of rapier wasps, and now...we're going to put them to work" Cardin said.

Jaune nervously laughed.

"According to one of the essays you wrote for me last week, these guys love sweets, I think it's time we teach her a thing or two" Cardin said.

They all got up.

Jaune was handed a jar of sap.

"And you're going to do it" Cardin said.

"Do what" Jaune asked.

"Hit her with the sap, either that or I'll have a chat with Goodwitch, and you'll be on the first airship out of Beacon" Cardin said.

Jaune looked at the jar, then turned to Pyrrha.

I ran to them.

"JAUNE, don't do this" I said.

"Oh, it's you...sorry but Jauney boy isn't going to do that" Cardin said.

"Please Jaune, do what's right, there's another way" I said.

Jaune looked at me, then back at the jar.

"You know what...you've given me an idea y/n...Jaune, if Pyrrha isn't available...then go for Ikagaki" Cardin said.

IKA!!!

"That loud mouthing piece of shit, try hitting me into walls when you're hospitalized" Cardin said.

We all turned to Ika.

He was looking at us the whole time.

Ika sighed and looked down.

He then gave off a small smile.

"Do it...you won't hurt Pyrrha...and you won't be kicked out of Beacon...I will hold no hatred over you if you do this Jaune...follow your heart" Ika mouthed.

He then bowed.

Jaune got upset, and he readied a shot.

Ika wasn't moving.

We were waiting on his response.

He placed the jar down.

"No" Jaune said.

"What" Cardin asked.

"I said...NO" Jaune said.

He threw the jar at Cardin, covering him in sap.

Cardin smiled...then readied a punch.
