Chapter 8: Training Day

The day starts of on a beautiful day as the new recruits of start there day with a test of strength and courage, then out of know where Ruby come flying in at full speed hitting a bird, then she fires her rifle slowing her down then she switch's to scythe mode then hooks onto a tree and lads on the ground, then Weiss came in flying then using her glyphs to slow her descent, then Ren starts soring down then use's his weapons to slide his way down to the ground, then Jake was enjoying this because he never done this before then he lands on a tree then he jumps onto the next, and the next, then he land on the ground then he starts to hear explosions from up above so he looks up and sees Yang flying across the guy instead of slowing down she uses the explosions to increase her speed then she lands into a bunch of trees which slows her down and hops from One Tree to the next and then hits the ground and makes the landing meanwhile. Pyrrha started busting through the trees in order to slow down then she lands on her Branch then quickly turns her sphere into a rifle then use the scope then looks to the scope and sees Jaune flying off course unable to make a landing so she quickly transforms her rifle into a spear and launches it towards Jaune in order to stop his fall

Jaune: Thank you!

Pyrrha: I'm sorry!

Meanwhile Jake start walking through the forest aimlessly hoping to find something or someone because he didn't know what he what kind of Temple he was looking for exactly then after a few moments he hears a flap of wings he looks up in its Dust up and where the trees

Dust: There you are.

Jake: Yeah did you see me?

Dust: Yeah I saw. You why didn't you tell me you could fly?

Jake: I can't fly, they just launched me into the sky.

Dust: I bet that was fun.

Jake: It was.

Dust: So what are you doing.

Jake: They said I was supposed to be looking for some sort of Temple whatever that is.

Dust: The temple? I think it's one of those old human buildings things that's falling apart. I did happen to see one on my way here.

Jake: That must be the place, can you show me the way.

Jake followed dust until they ran into a pack of beowolves.

Jake: Maybe they're friendly?

Beowolves: (Growls)

Dust: They're not friendly!

Jake: RUN!!!

Jake and Dust ran away from the Beowolves because there is too many for them to fight then without noticing it quickly Jake fell off the side of a cliff and started tumbling down and then landed on his stomach which hurt a lot.

Jake (Groans) Ow.

Dust: Are you okay.

Jake: No, Not really.

Dust: That was quite a landing.

Jake: Yeah you should try it sometime (gets up) where are we?

Dust: Not far from the Temple Place

Jake: (Sniffs) Do you smell that?

Dust: (sniffs) Yeah, something burning.

Jake and just turn around to see that the forest was on fire and then they're quick panic Jake jumped further down the cliff to avoid the fire but luckily he landed on his feet rather than a stomach like last time so at that moment running away from fire he stopped take a breath.

Jake: (gasping) This place is insane.

Dust: Yeah tell me about it, either you keep moving or your dead.

Jake: Tell me about it, Dust I think you should get out of here, at the moment they see you there probably going to shoot you, so I think it's probably best that you get out of here.

Dust: You don't need to tell me twice, I'll see you back with the others, try not to die (flies off).

Jake: I won't!

Jake started walking in the direction that Dust pointing him to hoping to find this Temple meanwhile. Pyrrha had finally found Jaune and got him down the tree and started looking for the temple

(GUN FIRE)

Jaune: Did you here that?

Pyrrha: Gun fire it seems some of comrades have encountered the enemy.

Without realizing it. Pyrrha accidentally pushed a Branch out of the way and then it whacked Jaune in the face knocking him down

Pyrrha: Jaune! Sorry!

Jaune: Don't worry it's just a scratch.

Pyrrha: Why didn't you activate your Aura?

Jaune: My what?

Pyrrha: Your Aura.

Jaune: Gesundheit.

Pyrrha: Jaune, do you know what aura is?

Jaune: (Scoffs) Of course I do...do you know what aura is?

Pyrrha: Aura is the manifestation of our souls. It bears our burdens and shields our hearts. Have you ever felt like you were bring watched without knowing that someone was there?

Jaune: Uh, yeah.

Pyrrha: With practice, our aura can be our shield. Everyone has it. Even animals.

Jaune: What about Monsters?

Pyrrha: No the monsters we fight lack a soul. They are creatures of Grimm. The manifestation of anonymity. They are the darkness and we are the light.

Jaune: Right. That's why we fight them.

Pyrrha: it's not about why, it's about knowing. Understanding both dark and light helps us manifest our aura. Everyone has some of both. By baring your soul outward as a force you can deflect harm. All of our tools and equipment are our conduits for aura. you project yourself and your soul with fighting.

Jaune: It's like a force field!

Pyrrha: Yes, if you wanna looks at it that way. (Walks Up To Jaune) Now close your eyes and concentrate (Puts Hand On Cheek).

Jaune: Uhh....okay.

at that moment Jaune closed his eyes and then Pyrrha closed her eyes and then both there aura's started to glow and shine.

Pyrrha:...for it is passing that we achieve immortality. Through this we become a paragon of virtue and glory to rise above all. infinite in distance and unbound by death, I release your soul, and by my shoulder protect thee. (Loses balance).

Jaune: Pyrrha?

Pyrrha: It's alright, I used my aura to unlock yours, but the energy that protects you now is your own. You have a lot of it.

During that moment somewhere else Ren had just finished fighting off to King King Taijitu's and after killing them Ren started hearing a noise which was familiar because he knew who it was

Nora: Qrrraaww! Qrrraaww!

Ren: Heh. I still don't think that's what a sloth sounds like.

Nora: (Pokes Ren's Nose) Boop!
