Volume 3: Fighting the Crow

Y/n POV

I was outside jogging to the courtyard to see what was going on. I saw the same man and woman from the window, they had their weapons drawn out ready to fight, this could end badly. I carefully push through the crowd about to watch them fight, I got out my lightsaber from my belt. I finally pushed through the crowd, activated my lightsaber and quickly blocked the woman's attack, we clashed our blades together, and then she looked at me and saw my weapon in a surprised look. She pulled her weapon out of mine and began to speak to me.

???: What do you think you're doing?! Leave this area at once!

???: Yeah kid, this fight is none of you're business, scram!

You: You two were gonna fight in front of a crowd? What if you had hurt someone? Someone could get hurt from here.

???: Well this one right here destroyed Atlas military property.

???: And she thinks that she's so special.

???: Wanna say that again, you hag?!

???: Oh, now you definitely want fight!

You: Enough!

They went silent for a second.

You: Ms, look around you. You could've been hurting anyone around here.

She took a moment to look around her surroundings. She saw civilians around in a crowd. She finally came to her senses and put away her weapon.

???: You're right, I'm sorry. I didn't know what came over me. Thank you, uh.

You: Y/n L/n.

???: Thank you Y/n, my name is Winter Schnee, Weiss's sister.

We then shook our hands for a second and let go.

You: Pleasure's all mine Winter.

???: What?! So that's it?! You're just gonna back down from a fight?! What a coward you are Winter.

Winter: That's enough! You need stop this now!

???: I'm guessing that kid with the glowing sword just had to stop the fight.

You: I stopped the fight because you were gonna hurt civilians around here.

???: Cut the chatter kid! If you don't want to have me fight with ice queen right here? Then I'll gladly fight you instead!

You: Hold on, I'm not here to-

I was cut off by him charging at me with full speed. I quickly blocked his attacks with my lightsaber, he was too fast for me to block him, he then made me lose my defense and almost hit me with his weapon. I doged roll out of the way to evade his attack. I got back up to get into defense mode. He then spoke to me.

???: Come on kid, you just gonna run away like a coward? What a fighter you are.

You: I'm not here to fight you! I just wanted to stop you two from fighting each other so you won't hurt any civilians.

???: Yeah right. Enough talk!

He then charged at me again, I slowed him down with the Force, deactivated my lightsaber and ran to get some distance from him. I heard the sound of the Force stopped slowing him down.

???: I'm not done with you!

I heard him said that to me. I was running to a pillar and quickly climb up on it.

???: Ha! You think climbing things is gonna save you? Think again kid!

I made it to the top of the platform of the big pillar and started to run across it. Then he started shooting at me with his weapon in a gun mode.

You: Geez this guy's crazy! Hang on!

I kept on running on the platform. But then I heard something collapsing. He cut off the position where the pillar was standing. I jumped off the pillar and began to fall. Everything went in slow motion for me. My lightsaber fell out of my belt, I tried to grab it, but it was too far for me to reach it. I reached out with my right hand to try to grab it, but then I started to have another flashback.

(Flashback)

Young Y/n POV

I was hanging upside down seeing my lightsaber on a table.

Jaro Tapal: Padawan, where is the Force?

Young You: Everywhere. It is within me. It surrounds me.

Jaro Tapal: Just so. It connects you. There will be times where emotion... Pain, or exhaustion trick you. You feel cut off, isolated. This is an illusion. Your lightsaber lies there, out of reach. But you remain connected through the Force. Feel that energy around you... and summon your weapon.

The table raised up a little bit. I reached out with my right hand to try to pull my saber to me, but that didn't work.

Young You: The Force is within you, around you, connecting you to your weapon.

I said to myself and tried again, but I saw it moved a little bit, but it wasn't enough.

Jaro Tapal: Relax Padawan. You must ignore all distraction.

I took a deep breath and let it out, and I tried one more time to get my saber. I reached out with my right hand to pull it, then it completely went to my hand and I grabbed it.

(End of Flashback)

Y/n POV

I was still in the air reaching out for my lightsaber, then I used the Force to pull it towards me and I grabbed on to it with my right hand. I did a front flip in the air and hit the ground while I did a safety roll. I heard some of the crowd saw me what I did. I now remember how to use Force Pull.

You: The Force is with me, it connects us.

BD-1: Beep?

You: Yeah, I think so.

I then turned around to face the man, he had a surprised look on his face. I activated my lightsaber and got into my fighting stance to fight him. I watched him closely to prepare for any attack that he was about to send at me. I kept holding my lightsaber in a defensive way to get ready for his strike.

Jaro Tapal: Concentrate, focus on your mind, and feel the Force around you.

I heard my Master's voice in my head, concentrate, focus on your mind, and feel the Force around you. I concentrate on him and focus. He then started to charge at me again, he swung his weapon at me, but I side stepped on my left for him to miss his attack. I did an Evasive Kick on him to stagger him, and I swung my lightsaber at his chest, he groaned in pain and got back a bit.

???: You're gonna have to do better than that kid.

I didn't respond to him. I focused on him and watched his attacks. He was going to swing his blade again, but I used Force Push to push him away. He went into the air for a second and hit the ground. I went to go to him, he was about to to get up, but then I pointed my blade at his throat. He then stood still in shock to my saber close to his throat, all he heard was the sound of my blade humming at his throat. He then put his hands up to know that he gives up. I deactivated my lightsaber and clipped it to my belt.

Ironwood: What's going on here!

I turned around to see General Ironwood. I noticed that Penny was with him.

Winter: General Ironwood, sir!

Ironwood: Y/n, what happened here.

You: Well, let me explain to you General. These two were about to start a fight in the courtyard, luckily I stopped Winter here to not start the fight. I talked to her and she understands why she did it in the first place, she put her weapon away after I talked her so she's fine. But then this man here decided to attack me instead, I didn't want to fight him too, but he left me no choice but to fight back and stop him.

Ironwood walked up to him.

Ironwood: Is it true, that you attacked him when he was trying to stop you from causeing a scene?

It took a moment for the man to speak.

Man: Yeah, it's true.

Ironwood: Then why would-

Ozpin: Now, now everyone.

I turned around to see Ozpin and Glynda walking to the scene.

Ozpin: There is a sanctioned fight happening just around the colosseum that I can assure you has better seats. And popcorn.

Glynda: Break it up, everyone! We will take care of this mess.

Ironwood: Let's go.

Ironwood said to Winter, and she followed him with rest of the Atlas robots following them.

I noticed Ruby was jumping on to the man's arm.

Ruby: Uncle Qrow!

You: Wait.. What?!

Ruby: Hi. Ahh, it's so good to see you! Did you miss me? Did you miss me?!

That's her uncle Qrow?! I have so many questions to ask her after this.

Qrow: *jokingly* Nope.

He then rubbed Ruby's hair.

Ozpin: Qrow.

He then dropped Ruby on the floor.

Ozpin: A word please.

I saw Glynda repairing the damage that Qrow did.

Qrow: I think I'm in trouble.

Ruby: You did kinda tear up our courtyard.

Qrow: Yeah I did. Catch you later kid.

Qrow then fist bump Ruby. I'm exhausted, I think I took some damage back there.

You: I could use a Stim BD.

I snapped my fingers with my right hand, BD then popped the canister out of him, I caught the stim and injected into my left shoulder. I then put the empty canister in my pocket.

Qrow: Okay, what was that he just popped out of his head?

You: It's called a Stim, if you haven't noticed. This is BD-1, he helps me recover from my injuries with his Stims.

Qrow: Well I gotta say, that's a nice little friend you got there. Hey uh, listen kid.

You: I have a name you know. And it's Y/n L/n.

Qrow: Yeah, listen Y/n, I wanted to say that I'm sorry for fighting you back there, I didn't know what came from me.

You: It's okay I get it. Just next time, try not make someone fight you again just because their special.

Qrow: Yeah, I'll keep that in mind. See you around Y/n.

Qrow left me with Ruby and Weiss.

Weiss: Thank you Y/n for making them stop fighting.

You: No problem Weiss.

Ruby: That was awesome what you just did back there, that was another memory you had right?

You: Yeah, I now remember how to use Force Pull.

Ruby: You're almost there right?

You: I'm almost back to when I was before the purge, but I'm missing something. I'll just have to wait and see.

Weiss: Well we should head back to our dorms.

Ruby: Yeah, let's go relax.

You: I'm with you guys.

We left to go back to our dorms to relax for the day. I will like to know about Qrow when I get the chance, I'll just have to wait and see.

To be continued.
