It was to be a regular morning. The sun rose, students of Beacon would wake up, do their morning routine, get to class, finish their work, and then move on to their daily activities during their freetime.

The first few steps of that regime were done already, the students now in class. But it would soon spiral into something that would cause a tad bit of chaos for poor Jaune Arc.

Jaune was in Professor Goodwitch's class, which was Combat Training. Right now, he was watching Ren with great interest and stern observation as he fought against his opponent, Dove Bronzewing, who weld a simple gun-sword(That is his actual canon weapon, from the looks of the Vol 2 opening).

Ren took his time, dodging Dove's movements and poking him with a few shots from Stormflower now and then. As the battle neared to a close, Dove went for an overhead slash. Ren blocked it with both of the blades of his guns, and kicked his stomach, sending Dove flying a few feet back. He planted both of his feet down, skidding to a stop, but Ren wouldn't give any more chances for him to counterattack. Rushing forward, he crouched and sweeped Dove off of his feet, time seeming to slow to a stop as Dove floated in mid-air, and Ren spun around to deliver an aura-empowered palm thrust to his opponent.

No matter how many matches Jaune would see Ren take part in, he'd never stop being amazed at Ren's agility and prowess. This thought led to a chain, where he started wondering how he'd managed to become so quick. His natural body type was definitely a large factor, and Jaune seemed more built towards a tanky warrior, while Ren was more of a lightning-fast glass cannon. Still, it didn't mean that Jaune couldn't learn.

In fact, Jaune would ask Ren how he'd get to be so quick. Jaune's speed was a fine point that still required lots of training, even with Pyrrha's help. So who else to ask help from other than the master? Not that Pyrrha wasn't a good teacher, but Jaune personally felt that Ren would be of most help-And he was quite certain that the rest of his team would think the same, too.

"As you can see, Ren has utilized the full use of his agility and aura to take complete control of the battle. This is a perfect example of the way to win a battle with one's natural movements enhanced with aura. Mr. Lie, your abilities are impressive, above average, in fact. Mr. Bronzewing, you make efforts to take careful observation of your opponent, but your reactions are slower than your mind. I suggest for you to train harder, until you're more used to the movements and perhaps more physically capable."

Ren nodded, uttering a small 'Thank you' as he left the stage, sitting between Nora and Jaune, the former, of course, giving her best friend a hug. "That was perfect!" she shouted, her trademark grin on her face as Ren sighed, trying to push his partner off even though he knew it'd be of no use.

"Nora, let go-" Nora and Ren would of went on and on, but Jaune interrupted.

"Hey, Ren?" he asked, the pair stopping their struggling to look at their leader.

"Yeah?" Ren asked.

"Can I talk with you later?"

Ren didn't know how to react to the stern but slightly anxious tone Jaune had just exhibited, but he recovered quickly.

"Uhh-Sure,"

And with that, the classes ended for the day, and JNPR returned to their dorms. Luckily for Jaune, it was just him and Ren, and now was the time for him to ask Ren to reveal to Jaune his secret to his speed...

As Jaune tried to think of how to start the conversation, Ren was busy taking care of his weapons. Finally done with the agonizing process of word-choice, he got off of his bed and walked over to Ren.

"Ren, I need help!"

"Jaune, I don't know any good dating tips." Ren said nonchalantly, eyes glued to his gun as he made adjustments and cleaned out the inside.

"Not with that!" Jaune exclaimed, a slight but clearly visible blush tainted on his cheeks now. "Pyrrha's doing the best she can to train me, but I suck at moving quickly during a fight. You're pretty agile, so I figured I'd ask what your secret is?"

Ren stopped, looking at Jaune in surprise, although it didn't show in his expression. He didn't think that his leader would go to him for advice. But he just did, and although Ren did do regular training, there was indeed a second secret and effective method he used for quite some time to improve his agility. He usually didn't talk about it, but for Jaune, he'd make an exception…

That would also mean having fun in his own kind of way.

Setting his gun down on his bed, he rested his elbows on his legs and crossed his fingers together, chin rested on them.

"My secret is an ancient and excruciating technique that calls for the utmost focus, resolve and endurance…" Ren said dramatically, Jaune surprised at the sudden shift in tone. "Are you sure you want to know?"
Honestly, Jaune was intimidated. If anything were as hard as Ren had just described, then surely, he was speaking the truth. But Jaune remembered that he'd been through hell before. He'd trained day and day with Pyrrha, hours after hours spent with blood, sweat and tears. He'd made improvements, and even more improvements would be a big help. If he was going to become a hunter, he'd need all the help he could get.

"Yes, I'm sure!" He said confidently.

"Well, okay, then…" Ren placed his weapons into his cases, and gestured for Jaune to follow him as he left the dorm.

Once they arrived at their location, which was an arcade, Ren led him towards the more noisier and musical part of the building.

"Ren, what're we-"

"Patiience, Arc," Ren said, a sly smile on his face which Jaune didn't see.

And finally, they arrived, Ren gesturing towards the source of his agility.

"Here it is!"

"A D.D.R. MACHINE?!"
