I went to the junkyard like the stranger said and brought the bat. Who the hell is this guy? What does he want from me?

???: BOO!

I screamed loudly and turn to see the buzz cut man.

???: Chill out bro. It's just me.

Me: Why would you do that?!

???: You'll see eventually.

Me: What?

???: Nothing. That the bat?

He takes it out of my hands and looks at it.

???: Hmmm. Yeah. Really nice.

Me: It's just a wooden bat. What's so great about it?

???: You bought it, so you saw something in it. Not every weapon has to be this fancy blade or shapeshifting gun.

I wanted to say something, but I couldn't. He has a point.

???: This isn't just a bat. It's an empty canvas. Think about what you could put on it.

Me:....

Something started to make my brain think. I see a metal cup and managed to fit it at the bottom of the handle, making an improvised pommel. I see a broken fence with barbed wire on it and clipped it off.

*Timeskip*

Me: How's this?

I hand the buzz cut man the weapon.

???: Oooh. Loving the barbed wire. Nice touch.

Me: What now?

???: Now we need to find something to test out this beauty on.

We leave the junkyard and headed to the woods.

Me: So...What are we testing this on?

???: Don't know. Anything really. Small Grimm, feral wolf, or maybe even a hiker.

Me: What?!

???: I'm just joking dude. I only kill when someone needs a killin. Like that ginger haired cunt-...oooh hello there~.

He cut himself off when he sees a Beowulf.

???: Hmmm. This should be interesting. Ok Jaune-boy....

He hands me the bat.

???: Kill it.

Me: Wait hold up? What?! With this piece of wood.

???: Don't you dare call her that. I am trying to teach you how to become a slugger wielder and you dare disrespect your own baby?

The Beowulf sees us.

???: No choice now Jaune-boy. Ya gotta go swingin.

He slaps my back and pushed me towards the Grimm.
