Ryan Stacy VS Yang Xiao Long

''Gauntleteers versus RWBY! When fist meets fist, one of these laid-back students with lightning-fast gauntlets will fall. Where is anyone's guess.''

Interlude
Leo: I've fought a lot of people in my day, but not too many with gauntlets.

'''Cephas: Yeah, Nora's pretty much it. She creamed you, though. But these two have 'em, and they're gonna use 'em!'''

Leo: I still maintain I could have won. Anyways, there's Ryan Stacy, from Fire's upcoming game Academy for Gauntleteers...

'''Cephas: And Yang Xiao Long, half-sister to Ruby Rose and third member of Team RWBY. He's Leo and I'm Cephas...'''

Leo: And it's our job to- you know what, too scripted. I'm going off book. We're here to see which one of these kids can overwhelm the other in a test of sheer might. My money's on Ryan, which I'll get to at Desk Poll.

Cephas: Eh, I'm voting for Yang just for the sake of argument.

Death Battle!
Ryan hated school dances with a passion. He could dance; that wasn't the problem. The real issue was the other students at the AFG. They'd crucify him if they saw him dancing with a girl. Even the girls would be on his back immediately. So, when the AFG decided to hold a Tri-School Dance with U.A. High School and Beacon Academy, he was less than ecstatic. He currently sat against a wall, watching the others dance. Ochako Uraraka was talking amiably with Tenya Iida and Pico Ramirez. Izuku Midoriya and Ruby Rose were discussing weapons. Katsuki Bakugou and Tori Blaston were arguing like usual. Blake Belladonna and Momo Yaoyorozu were trying to outdo each other in combat knowledge, while Jaune Arc and Koji Koda were lamenting their respective single status at a table and gorging themselves on food. Ryan, it seemed, was the only one without a companion.

Until he felt a presence coming toward him from the side.
