Adam's Redemption

Once and for All (V3)

I don't own RWBY. RWBY is owned by Rooster Teeth and was created by Monty Oum. I only own my OCs

Adam was looking at Wilt with a grim look on his face. He was glad Cinder didn't order Emerald to distract someone in the past fight. They probably wouldn't have been able to resist as he had

Still, Adam couldn't help feeling anxious as he next match up was upcoming. Now, Adam didn't have a doubt that Silver was aligned with Cinder and the others

It seems team CMEA was a facade the whole time and was never real

Adam decided that his time in the changing room was up. He grabbed Blush off of the bench next to him and sheathed Wilt. He stood up and started to walk towards the exit

Even though Adam was anxious, he had to admit it. He was excited as well

As he opened the doors to the arena, letting the spotlights flood into the room and somewhat blinding him in the process, Adam could feel the dread set in his heart

'Calm down. If anything happens, you'll be there.' Adam told himself as he walked on to the platform with the other contestants

He didn't bother listening to Oobleck and Port ramble on. There was no need too. He was focused on the fight he may have in front of him more

However, Adam couldn't resist listening in when he saw his name appear along with Silver's on the screen

"Hoho! Seem our next match will be between Adam Capra of Beacon! And Silver Adrik of Haven!" Port's voice boomed as he stated what could clearly be seen

"This is bound to be an interesting match, Peter! Both fighters are extremely good at their respective styles. Adam's skill with the blade being compared to that of a huntsman's and Silver being one of, if not the best, hand-to-hand fighter competing in the festival!" Oobleck said over the stadium's speakers, telling everyone just how intense this fight may be

Adam rolled his shoulders and popped his neck before turning to Silver. He noticed Silver was in his stance already. It wasn't much different from Yang's. Only, his seemed more refined and seemed more guarded

Adam crouched down and laid a hand on Wilt, drawing it so that the red of the blade was visible. His eyes started to narrow as he focused

"Good luck." Adam called out. He figured he should at least show some sportsmanship

"Good luck to you too, Adam." Silver called back. He shifted lower to the ground. Adam tensed as the countdown begun

"3!" Port shouted out. Both fighters didn't move a muscle

"2!" Neither fighter made even the slightest change in their stance

"1!" This time, they shifted a bit, waiting for the other to charge headfirst as the match begun

"Begin!" Port shouted as both Silver and Adam stood still and silent for a few seconds

Adam stared into Silver's dark gray eyes. The same went for Silver. He stared into Adam deep blue eyes. Silver took a deep breath in

Adam deflected a punch and dodged a kick as Silver charged Adam. Adam rolled out of the way of a roundhouse kick and fired Wilt out of Blush. Silver put his hands in a guarding position before deflecting Wilt upward into the air

Adam pushed off the ground and fired a few bullets at Silver, who easily dodged them or blocked them. Adam jumped onto Silver's crossed arms and jumped up into the air. Adam grabbed Wilt in an abnormal grip and slammed into the ground, creating an energy wave that spread outward from Adam
