Operation Two: A New World?
A/N: I don't own any of this.
Enjoy!
Renmant, just outside of Vale
Third Person POV:
As to be expected, all four operators landed on the ground from the portals they were teleported in, before they all stood up and did a four way Mexican standoff.
Kozak: Who are all of you?!
Recker: Same question goes to you.
Logan: Wait. We all have American flags. We're Americans.
Frost: Are you sure? They could be Russians in disguise.
Logan: Look. Just put down your weapons. We're not tangos.
Frost: Alright. But if you backstab me, I'll shoot you.
Logan: Of course.
Frost: Okay. All of you, stand down and cease fire.
Every one of the operators put their weapons down.
Frost: Well if we are Americans, state your branch and rank.
Logan: Logan Walker. Army, 2nd Lieutenant.
Kozak: John Dmitri Kozak. Army, Staff Sergeant.
Recker: Daniel Recker. Marine Corps, Gunnery Sergeant.
Frost: Derek "Frost" Westbrook. Army, formerly Marine Corps. 1st Lieutenant.
Kozak: So Frost is the highest ranking guy out of all of us.
Frost: Seems like it. What about our units?
Recker: I was part of a small squad of Marines named Tombstone.
Frost: Well ooorah to you, fellow Marine.
Logan: I am part of Task Force STALKER, more commonly known as the Ghosts.
Kozak: Well that's also my unit's informal name, though we are Ghost Recon.
Frost: I'm part of the "The Unit".
Logan: Delta?
Frost: Yeah.
Logan: So it would seem all of us are Tier One operators?
Recker: I'm Tier Two.
Logan: Right.
Frost: And we got teleported from four different portals, meaning we're from different worlds of Earth.
Others: Yep.
Frost: Now. Let's get out of this forest before we get sneaked up by someone.
They all helped each other up and started to move through the forest. Logan got out his binoculars, while Kozak his tablet.
Logan: I see a tower.
Kozak: And we should be 2 miles from that tower.
Frost: That probably means civilization. C'mon guys, let's go.
Just as they were about to move on, they were ambushed by several black looking creatures, ready as if looking to eat them.
Frost: We got company men. Weapons free.
Frost then pulled his M4A1 up and started to shoot the lead Grimm, with the others pulling out their weapons and opening fire.
Frost: Recker! Get that SAW up and suppress fire in there!
Recker: Roger, sir.
Recker pulled out the bipod for the M249 SAW and proned on the ground before providing a hail of fire on the creatures, making them drop one by one.
Frost: Kozak! How many more of these creatures are coming our way?!
Kozak (looking through his HUD): Sir, there's about a wave of at least 50 headed our way.
Frost: Goddammit!
Frost then pulls out his M320 and shoots on an area full of the creatures, killing 10 of them in an instant blast.
Frost: Anyone have a better plan than wasting our ammo on these creatures?!
Logan: We could sneak away into the forest bushes. Our camouflage patterns aren't that visible.
Frost: Alright. Follow what Walker says! Let's move.
Slowly, they started to move around in the bushes, away from the black creatures, who were still thinking that the operators were still there. Eventually, Frost noticed something.
Frost: Wait. Do we suddenly have the ability to go invisible now? Like cloaking?
Logan: It would appear so, sir, though Kozak over there might have done it for some time.
Frost: Right. Now cloak. This should it easier to reach that destination of ours. Also go dark.
All three of them nod and activated their cloaks, and put on their night vision, making their approach to the city of Vale more stealthily and away from those black creatures.
Inside Vale, near the shop "Dust till Dawn"
Roman Torchwick and his henchmen got on their way to stealing Dust from the shop. Roman then approached the shopkeeper.
Roman: Do you have any idea how hard it is to find a Dust shop open this late?
One of the henchmen then points a gun at the shopkeeper, who raised his hands up in fear.
Shopkeeper: P-please! Just take my Lien and leave!
Roman: Shh, calm down, we're not here for your money. (to his henchman) Grab the dust.
One of them opens a case and three of them start to take the cylindrical cases in the case and fill up the Dust containers next to the walls.
Henchman 1 (to the shopkeeper as he's opening a new case): Crystals. Burn. Uncut.
The shopkeeper proceeds to fill the crystals into the case. Another henchman was about to get his portion of Dust when he notices a girl (Ruby Rose), listening to a muted "This will the day" song.
Henchman 2 (unsheathing his sword): Alright kid, put your hands where I can see 'em.
He doesn't get a response from Ruby.
Henchman 2: Hey, I said hands in the air! You got a death wish or something!?
He then approaches her and motions her to lower her headphones.
Ruby: Yes?
Henchman 2: I said, put your hands in the air, now!
Ruby: Are you... robbing me?
Henchman 2: Yes!
Ruby: Oh...
That particular henchman got his a*s kicked by Ruby.
Henchman 1 (raising his gun at her): Freeze!
That henchman also got his a*s kicked as Ruby's weapon threw him outside the ship, shattering the shop window. Outside, Ruby's Crescent Rose transformed as she twirled it around and smiled back at Roman and the three other henchmen.
Roman: Okayyy... (to the three remaining henchmen) Get her!
The henchmen tried to run towards Ruby with their weapons, but one thing stopped them.

A/N: Theme plays in background.
A nine-banger, tossed by Kozak.
Frost (while cloaked): Nhớ đêm. (Remember tonight.)
Kozak (radio): Now what?
Frost (radio): They don't know where we are. Sync shot this.
Kozak: Roger.
All four of the operators pick their targets as the henchmen, Ruby, and Roman were confused.
Roman: Where are they? (already blinded from the nine banger)
Henchman 3: I can't see a thing!
The last thing that henchman could see (or really could not see) was a fast bullet (a .300 AAC Blackout) from Logan's Honey Badger, headshoting him, along with the 2 others getting headshotted from Frost and Kozak.
Roman: What?! Where are they?!
Ruby is still shocked but smirked.
Roman: You were worth every cent. Truly, you were.
He drops the cigar he is smoking and crushes it with his cane.
Roman: Well, Red, I think we can all say it's been an eventful evening, and as much as I'd love to stick around... (raises his cane, which turns into a rifle) .I'm afraid this is where we part ways.
He then fires his cane at Ruby, but fails to notice the four operators.
Frost (radio): Logan, me and you after him. Recker and Kozak will stay here for support.
Other operators (radio): Roger.
Frost and Logan get out their grapples.
HUD system: << Grapple ready >>
They both nodded and uncloaked, grappling their way up to where Roman was, with Ruby climbing the ladder behind Roman.
Frost (pointing his M4A1 up): This is where the line ends.
Logan did the same with his Honey Badger.
Roman: Persistent...
Roman then throws a red Dust crystal at Ruby, Frost, and Logan. The two operators acted like it was a grenade and threw Ruby down with their bodies, covering her, while pointing their weapons at Roman. As the crystal explodes, another woman appeared (Glynda Goodwitch) and waved her weapon, firing purple beams at the Bullhead that Roman was trying to escape. Inside, an unseen figure (Cinder Fall) was struggling with the controls.
Roman: We've got a Huntress!
Frost sensed the distraction and pulled out his M320 grenade launcher, shooting the tail of the aircraft.
Roman: The hell...?
Cinder then appears and uses her hand to shoot a fireball at the four on the ground, with Frost and Logan rolling away to dodge it while Glynda blocking it for Ruby. The explosion gave time for Cinder and Roman to get away.
Frost: Goddammit!
Frost and Logan look back at Glynda and Ruby.
Ruby (looking to Glynda): You're a Huntress! Can I have your autograph?!
Frost and Logan then facepalm themselves.
Frost (to Logan): This is gonna be a long f*ckin' night.
Logan: You can say so.
*timeskip*
Interrogation Room, Undisclosed Location
Frost's POV:
And here we are, in a dimly lit interrogation room that looks like the same as those CIA ones. Then again, we're on a different world.
??? (Glynda) (to the unknown girl (Ruby)): I hope that you realize that your actions tonight will not be taken lightly, young lady. You put yourself and others in great danger.
Unknown Girl: They started it!
??? (Glynda): If it were up to me, you'd be sent home... With a pat on the back...
The unknown girl smiles.
??? (Glynda): And a slap on the wrist.
She then nearly slaps the unknown girl on the wrist with her crop.
Unknown Girl: Eek!
??? (Glynda): But... there is someone here who would like to meet you.
A man then appears out of the shadows, holding a mug and a plate of cookies.
??? (Ozpin): Ruby Rose... (leans into the unknown girl, named Ruby) You... have silver eyes.
Ruby: Uhm....
??? (Ozpin): So! Where did you learn to do this? (gesturing at the fighting Ruby did)
Ruby: S-Signal Academy.
??? (Ozpin): They taught you to use one of the most dangerous weapons ever designed?
Ruby: Well, one teacher in particular.
A/N: *coughs* Qrow.
??? (Ozpin): I see...
Ruby then starts to gobble up the cookies.
Me (whispering to Logan): We got a cookie monster here.
Logan: Eyup.
??? (Ozpin): It's just that I've only seen one other scythe-wielder of that skill before. A dusty, old crow...
A/N: Hint hint, snowbird.
Ruby then swallows her cookies and wipes her mouth.
Ruby: Sorry. That's my Uncle Qrow! He's a teacher at Signal. I was complete garbage before he took me under his wing. And now, I'm all like— Hooowaaah! Witchaaaa!
She then proceeds to make ridiculous karate moves.
Recker (faceplams): My god.
Ozpin: So I've noticed. (placing his cup on the table as he leans in, then sits down opposite Ruby) And what is an adorable girl such as yourself doing at a school designed to train warriors?
Ruby: Well... I want to be a Huntress.
Ozpin: You want to slay monsters?
Ruby: Yeah! I only have two more years of training left at Signal! And then I'm going to apply to Beacon! (talking faster and faster with her enthusiasm growing) You see, my sister's starting there this year, and she's trying to become a Huntress, and I'm trying to become a Huntress 'cause I wanna help people. My parents always taught us to help others, so I thought, Hey, I might as well make a career out of it! (giggles) I mean the police are alright, but Huntsmen and Huntresses are just so much more romantic and exciting and cool and really, gosh, you know! (flips out at the last part, staring at the two with a wide, crazy smile)
Both Glynda (assuming her name) and the man study her.
??? (Ozpin): Do you know who I am?
Ruby: You're Professor Ozpin. You're the headmaster at Beacon.
Ozpin (smiling): Hello.
Ruby: Nice to meet you.
Ozpin: You want to come to my school?
Ruby: More than anything.
Ozpin: Well okay.
Ruby then gets excited.
Ozpin: Now for you four. (he looks at us) I've seen your skills today.
Kozak: So?
Ozpin: Well....first of all, who are you?
Me: I'm afraid that's classified.
Ruby: Ooohhh! Tell us!
Logan: We can't.
Ozpin: Hm. (looks to Glynda) Maybe if we get Ruby out of the room, it'll be better.
Me: Sounds good to me.
I know because this room is most likely not filled with cameras, seeing as I looked around for any of them. Glynda then escorts Ruby out before coming back in.
Ozpin: Okay. Now, who are you?
Me: My first question, do you know what the United States of America is?
Ozpin: I'm afraid not.
I glance back at Kozak and nod.
Me: Well. The reason you don't know, is because all four of us is from a different world.
Ozpin: So....not Remnant?
Me: Yes. It's called Earth.
Ozpin: Interesting.
Me: Though all four of us are from different versions of Earth.
Ozpin: Even more interesting. And your weapons?
I then give Ozpin my M4A1, with the safety on.
Ozpin (inspecting): This is very unique. I've never seen a weapon like this. Not even in Atlas.
He then gives it back to me.
Ozpin: Judging by your looks, you all look like you work for the military.
Me: We're all Special Operations Forces.
Glynda: Special Operations Forces?
Me: SOF. It's a specific term for other Special Forces that aren't the US Army Special Forces, more commonly known as the Green Berets.
Ozpin: I see. And what units do you happen to be part of?
Me: I am part of the CAG.
Glynda: CAG?
Me: Combat Applications Group. More commonly known as Delta Force, and officially known as the 1st Special Forces Operational Detachment-Delta (1st SFOD-D). We are the US Army's Tier One Special Operations Force.
Ozpin: And what do you mean Tier One?
Me: Tier One is the best of the best. It also means we go on more dangerous missions than the tiers below us. And most of our missions are classified.
Ozpin: I see.
Logan: I'm part of Task Force STALKER, more commonly known as the Ghosts.
Kozak: Ghost Recon, also known as the Ghosts. My team's callsign is Hunter.
Recker: Tier 2 Marine Squad. Callsign: Tombstone.
Me: And my team's callsign is Metal.
Glynda nods and Ozpin looks very intrigued.
Ozpin: Now, how about your names?
Me: Derek "Frost" Westbrook. Rank: First Lieutenant.
Logan: Logan "Scarecrow" Walker. Rank: Second Lieutenant.
Recker: Daniel Recker. Rank: Gunnery Sergeant.
Kozak: John Dmitri Kozak. Rank: Staff Sergeant.
Ozpin nods again.
Ozpin: I see. So that explains how you murdered 3 henchmen of Roman Torckwick's.
Me: Murdered? We tried to stop a robbery.
Ozpin: I understand. But they consider it that. So now, you only have two choices: Get locked up behind bars, or join my academy.
Me: And what will we get in the academy?
Ozpin: Food, clothes, pay.
Me: Let me just...discuss it with the others.
Ozpin and Glynda backed off while we discussed among ourselves.
Recker: Should we trust him?
Kozak: I don't known man. It sounds like we're walking right into a trap because of the deal might be too good.
Logan: Look, we have to chose the lesser of two evils. Right now, would you want to be stuck in an academy, but still have freedom, or would you want to stay behind bars for something that had an actual purpose in?
Me: Logan's right. Right now we don't have much of a choice. Cut off from communications with USSOCOM and stuck on another world, with no US reinforcements. Well....we have to chose the lesser of two evils.
Recker and Kozak (sighing): Alright.
I turn back to Ozpin.
Me: We accept you offer. But, with some conditions.
Ozpin: And what will that be.
Me: First, we don't have to wear uniforms. Second, if we need to go somewhere, we may do as we please with good intentions. And three, don't let anyone know who we really are, or our names.
Ozpin: So you want all of Beacon to refer to you in?
Me: Our codenames. For example, I'm Frost. Logan, is Scarecrow. Recker, is Reck. And Kozak, well....
Kozak: Bear will be fine.
Me: Yes. Bear. Oh and I almost forgot.
Ozpin: Hm?
Me: Since our names and personal information info are classified, I want you to also black out anything that involves our personal info in our registration to the school.
Ozpin: Noted.
Me: Alright. (I look at the others who nodded) I think that settles in.
Ozpin: Very well. (he then offers his hand for a handshake, which I accept) Welcome, 1st Lieutenant, to Beacon.
I nodded under my mask.
Me: Thanks.
*timeskip*
Airship, near Beacon Academy
We all got our inside bags and decided to change into civilian clothing so as for people to not notice us, but we still had our Ghost glasses on, and our M17 pistols hidden inside our jackets.
Logan: I still don't trust the surroundings.
Me: I know. Me neither, but we have to stick with the plan.
Recker: I agree with the CO.
Kozak: Same.
We then look at the TV, which showcased the news.
Cyril: -The robbery was led by nefarious criminal Roman Torchwick, who continues to evade authorities. If you have any information on his whereabouts, please contact the Vale Police Department. Back to you, Lisa.
The news switched to some sort of protest.
Lisa: Thank you, Cyril. In other news, this Saturday's Faunus Civil Rights protest turned dark when members of the White Fang disrupted the ceremony. The once peaceful organization has now disrupted...
The TV inside the hologram was shut off and replaced with a hologram of Glynda.
Glynda: Hello, and welcome to Beacon!
??? (Yang): Who's that?
I looked through my glasses to identify who it was next to Ruby, which was Yang Xiao Long, half sister of Ruby.
Glynda: My name is Glynda Goodwitch.
Logan: That's her again.
Me: Eyup.
Glynda: You are among a privileged few who have received the honor of being selected to attend this prestigious academy! Our world is experiencing an incredible time of peace, and as future Huntsmen and Huntresses, it is your duty to uphold it. You have demonstrated the courage needed for such a task, and now it is our turn to provide you with the knowledge and the training to protect our world.
The hologram then disappears.
Me (whispering): Oh and Ozpin said that we'll be teachers in one course, but students in the rest.
Logan (left brow up): Strange....
Me: I know.
I then look back outside of the airship.
Me (thinking): Guess things will change since we're here now.
*US opening: Battlefield 4, Warsaw Theme plays*
A/N: And that's the end of this chapter! I hope you enjoyed it!
Have a nice day!
