" Now, folks. We'll be moving onto the doubles with team RWBY's free pass to the finals. So who shall it be today?" The pictures stopped on four individuals. "  Vladmir Alucard and Riza Aster from team ZLVR, against Blake Belladonna and Weiss Schnee from team RWBY." Zack took a moment to process this kind of information. He and the rest of his teammates looked at Vladmir with strange looks and waited for his response.

" Dude." Alistor Lotus, the 'L' in ZLVR, said a single word to check on his thoughts.

" Fuck." Vlad stared at the screens for a moment. " I can't do this man." He said rising.

" Yes you can, dumbass!" Zack caught him before he could leave, his other teammates helping him to drag the red eyed faunus all the way if they have to.

" I am not fighting girls! I promised Mom!" He said flailing his arms.

" Move aside bitches." Riza said moving in closer to her teammate and smacked him hard across the face. " Get a hold of yourself, Fangs. You gotta get over this whole....thing. Your issue with the fairer sex has got to stop. I mean if you're fine with me then you'll be fine against a Schnee and a Belladonna." Riza leaned as she placed her hands on her hips and waited for his response. " Come on, you better not cost us the match or a penalty." She warned him.

" Right..." Vlad let out a breath and calmed himself down. Zack gave him a pat on the shoulder to calm him down. " I got this." He straightened himself up and headed down the hall.

" Hey, Schnee and Belladonna. Heard about you guys, you're pretty cool." Riza said with a smile. She glanced at her teammate and gave him a nudge to say something. " Vlad, don't you look up to her?"

" Riza!" He was turning a bit red, he fixed his glasses and cleared his voice. " Well, uh, the Belladonnas were always my favourite examples of faunus-I mean 'cause your dad's a great leader, you're great too." He started mumbling as his face was a bit red. The environment chosen was the ocean and a mountain.

" Well, good luck." Blake said with a smile. He smiled back and the countdown ended. Riza wasted no time, pulling out her duel daggers and started firing a few round, Blake blocked a few rounds as Weiss created an ice wall right where Riza stood. She did a hand stand as she stood atop of it. Blake ran ahead to deal with Vlad, who was fairly startled by her presense. Nevertheless, he managed to avoid her katana and seemed to be doing his best to keep up with her using his glaive. He accidently left an opening and barely dodged the katana, leaving a cut by his cheek. Riza blocked her blade and pushed her back. Weiss dashed towards her with a boost from her glyph.

" Vlad, focus!" She reminded him as his aura healed him. She blocked Weiss' rapier and lead her away. " Don't let it get to your head." But the adrenaline was already kicking in. He caught Blake's hand and stared at her with his crimson red eyes. She froze, unable to look away as a devilish smile crept on his face.

' Why does my weapon feel, so heavy?' She was getting weaker by the second. Weiss pushed back her opponent, knocking her out of the competition and glanced at the screen to check on her aura level. She gasped as she saw Blake's go down at a consistent pace. She fell to her knees as she felt unable to stand, she needed to fight it.

" Oh no," The teacher said rising from his seat with alarm in his voice. Riza had just been disqualified, leaving Vlad to deal with his blood lust on his own. Blake's aura was down to the point that she couldn't fight any longer but his gaze never wavered.

" Blood for blood..." He said barely above a whisper as he referred to the cut earlier. A knock to the face was able to put Blake out of his trance. She  sucked in a deep breath and coughed, still, she was officially out of the competition.

" Blake, are you okay?" Weiss asked her friend as her knight summons guarded them. Blake coughed a bit before answering.

" I'm fine..." They glanced at him and the way he looked at the summons, trying to figure out if it was human. " My aura. He drained it...like,"

" An apathy." Weiss finished as the crimson eyed boy straightened himself up and started to circle them slowly. His glaive tight in his grip, as he smiled to show his fangs. Weiss signalled the knight to attack.

" I was eating that..." He said as he dodged its blade and his eyes directly at Blake. Weiss tried to think of a plan to beat him.

" Hit him on the back of his neck!" Riza shouted over, her body still on the ground but half lifted to see the commotion. Helping them directly would make it known that this was a problem and there would be panic but if she defeated him alone, there would be nothing to fear. She hoped that Zea hadn't called on a 'regulator'.
