Qrow had you pinned against the wall, his sword pressing ever closer to your chest as you used all your strength to hold him back. You knew he wouldn't hurt you, but your training was getting tougher.

As soon as you were both awake you had begun a rigorous early morning sparring session. You'd been at it for nearly an hour, and it showed in your red cheeks and the sweat dripping down your face.

Realizing you couldn't beat his strength you ducked under his blow, intending to emerge behind him, but he was too quick. His attacks were like lightning and it was all you could do to just barely parry them. Slowly but surely he was forcing you to retreat.

One minute you were toe to toe with Qrow, the next you were falling backwards. Before you had a chance to steady yourself you had already hit the ground. "I'm so clumsy," you groan to yourself. "That's just my luck..."

"Actually, it's mine." He sheaths his weapon and offers you his hand.
"What do you mean?" You ask him, confused.
"It's my semblance..." Qrow sighs. "Look, I should go soon. You really don't need me anymore, and I don't want to bring you pain." A saddened look came over his face as he looked away.
"Qrow, what in the world are you talking about?! Qrow, look at me," You cup his face in your hand and force him to look at you.
Seeing how intent you are, he resigns himself to an explanation. "My semblance, it's unique in that I can't control when it's active... I just bring misfortune wherever I go." He sighs, reluctantly pushing away from you. "I think we've trained enough for today. Get some rest. You'll be sore tomorrow." And with that he was gone.

A/N: Sorry for the short update, just wanted to get something posted. I'm sorry it's been a while. I have plans for this all the way to the end though, so I promise I'll update when I can and eventually finish this story. Thanks for reading!
