Chapter 63: Tournament part 1

Logan sighed as he stood at the very far back of the Amity Coliseum watching Team RWBY fight against Team ABRN. Logan could tell that Ruby and Yang were holding back to better cooperate with Weiss and Black as they weren't on their level yet but were fast approaching. Out of all of them, Weiss came the farthest as she now could summon multiple things in a few seconds. He saw that the match was coming to an end after Ruby and Yang dispatched their opponents with well time strikes, shattering their aura.

Blake's sword drew dark grey lines as it moved through the air parrying strikes from a girl with a hover-board/ handguns with relative ease. Then Blake drew her opponent in with a feint before a massive black smoke cloud that obscured them from everyone. The next moment, Blake's opponent came shooting out from the smoke like a bullet, being eliminated by ring out as Blake casually walked out without a care. Yet, the twitching of her ears and the small smile Logan could make out from where he stood gave away that she was very happy with her performance.

Weiss was dealing with a lightly tanned skinned teen with a staff. The teen weaved through Weiss' summons as he made his way towards her as she was currently kneeling on the ground with her sword pierced onto it. As the teen went to swipe at her with his staff, a summoned Beowolf appeared behind him and throw him to the side with great force. The teen slide for a few meters before he slammed his staff into the ground to stop himself. As he slide to a stop, a summoned Ursa came barreling towards him at high speed. Using a swift spinning motion, the teen pushed himself to the side as the Ursa barreled past him. As he came to a stop, he was met with a heel kick to the face from Weiss then followed by a stab to his chest; shattering his aura and sending him back on to the ground.

Logan: 'Well, at least their stronger then in cannon.' Logan thought as he watched them celebrate as they left the arena. 'Not to mention they're a lot more mature as well. Plus add in the fact that Team JNPR is almost triple of what they were, plus Jaune being well trained too makes what I know about the future pretty much useless. Then again, it pretty much was useless since the moment I appeared.' Logan continued to think as he left his spot and head down to meet up with the girls. 'A tiny ripple can make a tsunami, isn't that right Karma? I just hope I haven't messed this up too much for me to handle.'

Logan made his way through the coliseum and down to where the teams were suppose to wait fro their turn. As he did, Logan kept his [Presence Detection] active. He was one of many that were tasked with watching the coliseum, to make sure sure that the 'art' show from two days ago won't happen again as it was covered up so that Grimm don't start coming to the walls more then those that already are.

So far Logan stopped several pick-pockets, a brawl, and illegal betting since the start of the first match several hours ago. Thankfully, with RWBY's match over, the next one is the last for today with Team JNPR and Team BRNZ which is in 30 minutes. Maintenance was required after every battle to make sure the arena was in top shape to continue, after all no one want an accident to occur during a match.

Logan caught the team as they exited the arena with smiles on their faces. They chatted animatedly with each other as they passed by Logan heading straight towards the bullheads to head to the fairgrounds. To be fair to them, Logan was behind a massive crowd that was doing the same as them. By the time Logan caught up with them, they were already on their way down and Logan was left behind. Sighing, Logan made his way to an empty docking port and stretched his wings then jumped off.

Logan could hear a few gasps and annoyed murmurs when he did from those who were either surprised or jealous of Logan's Wings. He ignored them for the most part as he flew after RWBY's bullhead. Getting ahead of them, Logan landed at an empty port at the fairgrounds and waited for them to land. A minute later, RWBY got off the bullhead and found themself in front of a annoyed Logan. Who was sitting on a pile of bodies like a throne, again, while rubbing his face with one hand.

Yang: "You okay there, Logan?" Yang asked as the team and her approached Logan's throne.

Blake: "You seem a little tense." Blake commented as she looked at Logan's throne with a blank expression, but her twitching ears gave away her curiosity.

Logan: "One minute." Logan said which confused the girls. "I was waiting here for you girls for one minute and this happens. By the way, congrats on winning. You've come along way."

Ruby: "Thanks!" Ruby said with the rest of them. "We had it handled pretty much from the start, but how did this happen in one minute." She said as she gestured to his throne.

Logan: "A stand was holding a rigged chili eating contest." Logan said as he hopped down and gave the throne a kick and getting a groan from it. "They thought they could get away with rigging the chili for the challengers by being too spicy for anyone to eat while their guy got normal chili to eat, just made to look like it was spicy like the rest. When I confronted them, they got stab happpy."

Yang: "Ooo, spicy food sounds good right now. You got any of it? I'm starving after that fight!" Yang spoke as her stomach grumbled loudly.

Logan sighed and used his ash to grab a bowl of the chili from the spicy pot and gave it to her while the throne was being taken away by Vale's police. Yang took a single bit of the chili and her hair exploded into flames as her eyes shot wide open. As her hair extinguish itself, Yang devoured the rest of the bowl in under a minute. Easily beating the challenge without knowing it.

Yang: "Got anymore?" Yang asked with hunger in her eyes, to which Logan just pointed to a pot on the right of the stands kitchen area.

Logan: "The pot on the right, and she's gone." Logan said as he had turned his head away from her for a second and Yang disappeared. "Come on, the pot on the left has sweet chili if you guys are hungry. I can't stand wasting food so I'm gonna eat some even if your not gonna." Logan said as he walked to the stand.

Weiss: "I've never had chili before, I'll give it a try." Weiss said to Logan as she followed behind him. 'Then again, my father never even considered things like this as a good use of time or money. I don't even think he's even eaten anything below a five star rating."

Ruby: "It's a little messy, but you'll probably like it!" Ruby said as he caught up with them with Blake right behind her.

Blake: "I was hopping for fish, but chili works fine too." Blake said as she sat down with Ruby and Weiss while Logan got them bowls of chili. The twitching of her ears giving away that she wanted fish.

Logan just passed out normal sized bowls of chili to everyone while Yang ate straight from the extremely spicy chili pot. As he did, Team JNPR appeared from the docking ports and joined the five of them with Nora joining Yang at her pot. They chatted for a bit until Logan shooed Team JNPR away as their match was soon. Though he had to fight Nora to get her away from the chili pot as she didn't want to leave it. Ren was the one to get her to let go after he whispered something in her ear that Logan didn't catch but had a good idea of what it was. All Logan knew was that as they left, Nora's hand never left Ren's.

Team RWBY left not long after them as they wanted to see Team JNPR's match and cheer them on. Leaving Logan to clean up and handle the leftover ingredients for the chili. Logan decided to make his life easy by just putting everything into his [Inventory] after making sure no one saw him. After all, there was around several hundred thousand Lien left in ingredients alone and not counting the leftover cooking equipment. Once everything was cleaned up, Logan started to patrol around the fairgrounds while keeping an eye on Team JNPR's match that was being broadcasted on several screens placed around the grounds.

Logan caught bits and pieces of the match as he moved through the crowds, keeping an eye out for common criminals to try something. From what he saw, Jaune was being a competent leader and managed to hold the front line with Pyrrha well enough for Ren and Nora to side-swipe the other team with hit and run tactics. Jaune and Phrrya watched each other's backs as they fought and ended up back to back more then once. And Ren and Nora worked in sync as the timed their attacks with each other to hit at the same time.

The biggest change from them, besides their ability, was their clothes and armor. Jaune wore more armor, giving him more of a knight look. Phrrya now wore leggings and shorts instead of her skirt since Logan pointed out a flaw with them and her corset was now a leather jerkin with bronze plates covering her vitals organs. Nora didn't care and just stayed the same, yet she like to tease Ren about this he rather be kept quiet.

Logan had a smirk on his face as he remembered the one time he caught a part of what Nora said after he dropped a pick-pocket off with a few police officers heading back into Vale. Logan shook those thoughts from his head when he felt his scroll vibrate in his pocket.

Logan: "Hello?" Logan said as he answered his scroll.

Glynda (On call): "Logan, Miss Neopolitan finally opened up." Glynda said as she got down to business right away when Logan answered. "From what I could gather when I got here, she knows that someone was controlling Roman Torchwich and has something planned for the Vital Festival."

Logan: "Any idea of what it is?" Logan asked as he moved out from the crowded fairgrounds.

Glynda: "No, the only one that knew who was one of the men you executed at the restaurant besides Roman and he's not talking. Even with being threatened with another visit from you, he claimed that the person pulling his strings is worst then you" Glynda told him. "Apparently, that man was some type of go between for Roman and his boss. If you left those men alive, we could have got information on it and who."

Logan: "Glynda, those men wouldn't be able to talk. Their tongues were cut out, their eyes gouged out, their fingers were broken beyond fixing, and their ears were mutilated." Logan countered. "Even if you got Fox Alistair from Team CFVY to use his semblance on them, the only thing he'll get is mad rambling and mutters of no more pain. What I did was for the best, even if they were hired thugs or some super criminal, there is only so much one can go though before breaking beyond salvation."

Glynda: "*Sigh* Anyway, Miss Neopolitan gave us an address of Roman's personal house that he uses frequently and takes extra precaution when heading there so that no one except a chosen few know of." Glynda told Logan, diverting the subject. "I'm sending the address to your scroll, head over there when you can. Specialist Schnee will takeover your guard duties until you return."

Logan: "Got it. When will she get here?" Logan said, wanting to get this over and done with. "Never mind, here she is now. Bye Glynda, keep safe."

Glynda: "You too, Logan." Glynda replied as she hung up with Logan doing the same.

Logan turned around to be greeted with the familiar form of Winter Schnee walking towards him with a squad of Atlas special ops personal behind her. With a quick exchange of pleasantries, Logan handed off his patrol patterns for the day then took off. Within a minute, Logan was flying high over Vale heading into the residential district. Right to Roman's personal safe house.
