Teams JNPR and RWBY plus Omni are in Professor Goodwitch's class. Jaune is sparing with Cardin Winchester.
Jaune charges Cardin, who knocks Jaune aside with his mace, causing Jaune to drop his shield. Jaune then charge again and swings his sword down, only to be blocked by Cardin.
Cardin: This is the part, where you lose.
Jaune: Over my dead-
Jaune is cut off by Cardin kneeing him in the gut. Jaune falls to the floor and Cardin raises his mace overhead to bring down on Jaune, but is stopped when a buzzer goes off, signaling the end of the fight. Goodwitch walks into the arena, between the two fighters.
Glynda: Cardin, that's enough. Students, as you can see Mr. Arc's aura has now dropped into the red. In a tournament style duel, this would indicate that Jaune is no longer fit for battle and that the official may call the match. Mister Arc, it's been weeks now, please try to refer to your scroll during combat. Gauging your aura will help you to decide when it is appropriate to attack or when it is better to move to a more... defensive strategy. We wouldn't want you to be gobbled up by a Beowolf, now would we?
Cardin(muttering): Speak for yourself.
Glynda: Remember everyone! The Vytal Festival is only a few months away! It won't be long before students from the other kingdoms start arriving in Vale, so keep practicing! Those who choose to compete in the combat tournament will be representing all of Vale.
The bell rings, signalling the end of class.
Team RWBY starts getting excited at the mention of the Vytal Festival. Pyrrha, on the other hand, looks at Jaune with concern. Omni sees this, but says nothing.
Timeskip
(A.N. I'm starting to do timeskips, deal with it)
Teams RWBY and JNPR plus Omni are sitting down at a lunch table. Nora is telling a story, though only Yang is really paying attention.
Nora: So... there we were... in the middle of the night...
Ren: It was day.
Nora: We were surrounded by Ursai.
Ren: They were Beowolves.
Nora(standing up): Dozens of them!
Ren: Two of'em.
Nora: But they were no match. And in the end, Ren and I took them down and made a boatload of Lien selling Ursa skin rugs!
Ren(sigh): She's been having this reoccurring dream for nearly a month now.
Omni, Pyrrha, and Ruby ignored the story. Instead focusing on a depressed Jaune, who is playing with his lunch.
Pyrrha: Jaune, are you okay?
Jaune: Huh? Oh, yeah. Why?
Ruby: It's just that you seem a little...
Omni: Not okay.
Everyone else turns their attention to Jaune.
Jaune: Guys, I'm fine... seriously, look.(gives a thumbs up while nervously laughing)
Mocking laughter is heard in the background, causing the group to all look in the direction of the sound. They see team CRDL sitting around and mocking a girl with rabbit ears.
Pyrrha: Jaune, Cardin's been picking on you since the first week of school.
Jaune(turning to Pyrrha): Who? Cardin Winchester? Nah... he just likes to mess around, you know? Practical jokes.
Ruby: He is a bully.
Jaune: Oh please... name one time he's "bullied" me.(gives air quotes for the word bullied and laughs nervously)
Omni(grinning): How about I show you? Arc?
Archive(appearing in his usual spot): Already on it.
Archive then projects three video clips of Cardin knocking books out of Jaune's hands, Cardin activating Jaune's shield and trapping him in a door frame, and Cardin putting Jaune in a rocket locker and launching him away from the school.
When the video clips finish, Archive disappears.
Jaune: I didn't land far from the school.
Pyrrha: Jaune, you know if you ever need help you can just ask.
Nora(stands up): Oh!(gives a not-so-sane grin) We'll break his legs!
Omni: Yes!(raises fist and stands with Nora)
Pyrrha gives Omni a look and he sits down.
Jaune: Guys, really, it's fine! Besides, it's not like he's only a jerk to me; he's a jerk to everyone.
Rabbit Girl: Ow, that hurts!
Team CRDL laughs at the faunus as Cardin pulls one of her ears.
Rabbit Girl: Please, stop.
Cardin(to his team): I told you it was real!
Russel: What a freak!
Omni growls, stands up, and starts walking towards team CRDL. Pyrrha reaches out to grab his arm, but is met with air as Omni disappears and reappears from the shadows next to Cardin. CRDL jumps and looks at the glaring Omni, who's eyes change back from purple-dark blue to their normal gold.
Omni: Let her go.
Cardin: And who's going to make me, mutt? You?
Team CRDL laughs mockingly at Omni, who's eyes turn red-orange. Omni grabs the arm that Cardin is using to hold the rabbit fanus' ear and his hand starts to heat up. Cardin notices the increasing heat on his arm and starts trying to pull his arm away, but can't.
Cardin: What the heck are you doing.
Omni just glares and says nothing. Cardin's panic increases and eventually lets go of the rabbit fanus' ear. Omni immediately lets go and his eyes change back to gold as he turn to the girl. Cardin on the other hand waves his arm around, his arm armor glowing a red-orange.
Omni(ignoring the panicking Cardin): You okay.
Rabbit Girl: Y-yeah. Thank you...
Omni: Omni Nikos.
Rabbit Girl: Velvet Scarlatina.
Omni: Nice to meet you Velvet. Why don't you come sit with me and my friends?
Velvet: Really? Thanks.
Omni smiles and watches as Ruby introduces Velvet to everyone. His eyes flash dark blue-purple and smirks when Cardin's fist bounces off a dark blue-purple barrier that briefly appeared behind the wolf fanus.
Omni turns around to face CRDL.
Omni: Now, now, we wouldn't want to start a fight and get in trouble with Goodwitch, would we?
Cardin glares for a moment before turning around and walking away, his team follows him.
Cardin(over his shoulder): This isn't over, mutt! Nikos or not, I'm going to make you regret this!
Omni(laughs): I'd like to see you try.
With that, Omni walks back to his friends and sits down next to Ruby. Omni notices his friends, minus Pyrrha who is shaking her head, staring at him.
Omni: What?
Ruby: What was that!? First, you teleported. Next, you somehow heated Cardin's armor to a high enough temperature for it to turn orange-red. And then, you somehow summoned a dark blue-purple barrier that blocked Cardin's fist!
Omni: Oh, that, was my semblance. You see, a really long time ago there was this group of warriors that had a great control over aura, which they called Light. They managed to refine their ways into different groups and elements. The groups were Titan, strong fighters that defended others. Warlock, powerful and wise people with a thirst for knowledge. And Hunters, silent and deadly individuals that fought from the shadows with precision. The elements were Sol, fire. Arc, lightning. And Void, the name says it all.
Weiss: While that sounds interesting, what does it have to do with your semblance.
Omni: Well, my semblance allows me to use the powers of Light. I also have a limited amount of control over dust.
Blake: But, besides trial-and-error, how would you learn all of these things.
Omni: Well, that's where Archive comes in.(Archive appears and Omni pets his shell) You see, Archive, and other Ghosts like him, were made to help these warriors control their powers. Archive found me after I unlocked my semblance and taught me how to control my powers.
Omni's friends, satisfied with his answer, go back to their meals. Except for Jaune, who gets up and leaves with a sigh. No one notices Cardin, with an evil grin, watch Jaune walk away.
