Y/N waited at the exit of the tower with a downed gaze. His gaze seemed to travel far and long as each second seemed to tick on eternity.

His match was tomorrow afternoon, a show of power on what will happen during the finals. An appetizer before the main dish. Whatever it is, tomorrow is the beginning of it all.

And Y/N couldn't wait any longer.

The elevator dinged open as Pyrrha walked out of there, looking a bit dejected. Y/N approached her as she neared the exit.

"Hey..."

"Hey..."

An awkward silence was made between the two, unsure of what the topic will bring next. Pyrrha rubbed her arm as she was a bit nervous about what she wants to say to Y/N. What could she say?

How long did you know?

Where did you get this information from?

What kind of enemy are they dealing with?

All of this swirled around her head and was giving her a mild concussion. Before she could speak, Y/N put his hand on her shoulder.

"Lets just... wait. Until this festival comes to a close, your still Pyrrha Nikos of JNPR."

"But... what about-?"

"They're patient. Your still a student in their school and as teachers, they have the responsibility to shoulder everything as well. So don't feel down yet. We still gotta win this, don't we?"

Y/N smirked as he waited for Pyrrha to answer, after all, the Vytal Festival is about to end with the duels.

He's right. They gave her a choice in the matter that is most dire. Right now, it is exactly what happened back in Argus and Mistral.

All of a sudden, she is viewed as the most powerful Huntress-In-Training and after the fights, perhaps it will change later on.

But now, before all this. She's Pyrrha Nikos. Not of Mistral, nor Argus. But of Team JNPR.

With Ren, Nora, and her lover. Jaune Arc.

"You're right." Pyrrha smiled softly as Y/N retracted his hand from her. "We still have a job to do."

Y/N nodded in satisfaction as they walked away from the tower.

The crowd roared louder than yesterday as today was the final day of the tournament. Multiple teams have fought to be on the stage right now and only the winner will stand on top as the best student in Remnant.

But this match is special. A special match between two opponents in a grand battle for the ages. And now, it was about to start.

[Good Afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. Today, we are about to witness something extraordinary that has never been done before!] Port loudly announced as Oobleck corrected his glasses.

[Precisly! To be correct, today will be a match between two opponents that Headmaster Ozpin has personally checked. Speaking of the man, here he is!]

From the announcer's booth, Ozpin indeed sat down next to them with a graceful smile.

[Thank you for that.]

[Now, Professor Ozpin. Could you please explain to the audience what is happening right now?]

[Of course. This special fight has been sanctioned by me and others as a way to promote the power behind these students. And today, one of the most powerful students is about to fight a fully-fledged Huntress.]
