William-611 is a 12 year old spartan III in training in camp currahee, he has been with ONI since he was 6. William expected that he'll under go spartan augmentations soon and be a full spartan like those before him.
Then he'll go on suicidal missions and wreak havoc on those covenant bastards before being overwhelming and die in one big explosion (hopefully nuclear in nature) as a finale, now isn't that just what every 12 year old boy dreams? Or at least every 12 year old boy around him thinks so, as for the girls? Well they are a complete mystery as he has no idea whats going on in their heads, they are as mysterious as the Covenant are.
As for him? Unfortunately he doesn't share the same grand dream as his fellow spartans. Unfortunately he is a selfish bastard while save humanity is great and all but that is as long as it does not cost his life.
William like all sane individual has a motto 'me first, them later'. If a dangerous situation arise then he'll save himself first before worrying about anyone else, anything besides himself is a luxury and if the situation calls for him to choose between him or everyone else, then he will most certainly going to choose himself first.
While he does want revenge on the Covenant for what they did to his home world but not at the cost of his life, what he wanted was to have his revenge (like nuking a an entire elite planet) while not dying.
Anyway William is now under going a alive fire 'exercise' with the local UNSC forces stationed in the area and by live fire exercise it means that they'll be using live ammunition.
Naturally this being a spartan training 'exercise' it is set extra unfavorable to him and his fellow spartan trainees, while the enemy has access to normale weapons like Assuilt Rifle or Battle rifle, they also has top of the line UNSC equipment like the Railguns, Spartan lasers and a fucking Pelican and Warthogs with rocket launchers.
Not only that. it seems that the enemy really pulled out all the stops this time as they even have covenant weapons like plasma rifles, plasma blades, shield generators and all the other cool shit.
And the commander opposite side explains all this saying 'making this more realistic' as UNSC forces always faces an unfair battle and they they will most certainly face more unfair situations in the future.
The guy made a pretty nice speach and all but why the hell he and his fellow fellow spartans trainees only armed with tranquilizer darts and they aren't allowed to kill the enemy! William thinks that this is more likely due to his entire regiment getting beaten time and time again by kids and this is his last chance to get back some face before they under go augmentation be truly out reach.
A few days later things are starting to look good as after knocking out the patrols, they also looted their equipment. Now William is armed with the Railgun, M7 SMG and a Covenant energy blade.
While they cant kill the enemy it doesn't mean that they can't cripple them and put them out of combat.
Anyway while he was on scouting out the area near the enemy baee he stables on to a strange cave filled with unknown symbols.
Unknown to William this cave was built by the forerunners that act as a teleportation station, unfortunately due to the extreamly long time this place was left unmaintained it started maltfunctioning and thanks to Williams wondering grabby pushy hands, he accidentally actovated the device.
With a bright flash of light he was gone from where he stood moments ago and with another bright flash of light William stood facing the wall of an ally in an unknown city in an unknown world.
It took a moment for him to finally snapped out of it and examine his surroundings, he wonders around before he suddenly hears voices talking to each other.
Hearing that William dives for cover as he is in unknown territory, it is safe to say that it is better to observe his surroundings and get more information before doing anything, also being part of ONI's morally questionable top secret protect and carrying top secret weapons it's best to not be seen for now.
He hides in a trash can and listens in their conversation, he then discovered that the people here speaks english and then they mention some thing about 'dust' 'vale' and some other things he is not familiars with, some civies stuff most likely.
They carried on with their converstation as they passes by where he hid, once they gotten far enough William got out of cover and ponders on what to do.
He probably should get in contact with ONI but then again should he? It's not like he wanted to be in a suicide squad, when they asked him if wanted to get revenge naturally after having his entire planet glassed and having his parents get kill he answered yes.
Revenge is good but getting killed is bad, what he preferred is getting revenged and not getting killed.
He thinks for a bit before he decided to put matter aside for now and explore the area some more, he sneaked from street corner to street corner and gathered information as passes by, it yielded little success as he only got fragments of people's conversation talking about random stuff.
Fortunately for him as he was wondering about he manages to find somebody who has fallen asleep on a bench with her data pad next to her unguarded, so William did what was natural to him and took the data pad from the cearless individual.
With that he is able to gather information form the device, he discovered that this planet is called remnant and he is currently in a nation called Vale, one of the four kingdoms on the planet.
As William researched through the device, he found quite a few peculiar things about this place like the the thing called 'aura' which makes the user have the strength and speed like the spartan's augmentations it also has the additional effect of having shields and as an added bonus one random ESP power.
The creatures called 'grimm' is also quite peculiar, if what in this data pad is saying is ture than they are beings that are drawn to negative emotions and once you kill them they disappear.
Also the race or races of subhumans/mutants? called 'Faunus', frankly speacking he has no idea what evolutionary purpose those diverged assortment of animal features served, for attracting a mate maybe?
Besides those obvious things there are also quite a few things that struck him as odd, the locals have no idea of the planet called Earth or the UNSC or the Covenant in fact most these people have no idea of... Well anything outside of Remnant, while they do have airships they are in no way shape or form space worthy vessels, muchless ready to face the horrors that awaited them in space.
If the Covenant showed up, these people are toased as they have nothing that could reach them and they have no way off the planet, all they could do is wait for the enemy to glass the planet with them on it.
So what does he do now?
He ponders on a bit before he finally settles on one that will benefit both him and humanity, he'll start a company and he'll recreated goods that he thinks that would sell here.
In doing so he'll be able to advance the technology here, while also filling his pocket. It's like hitting 2 birds with one stone.
If all goes well then by the time he reached 30 he should have a company that is capable of building space ships and should have started colonizing nearby planets.
the human-covenant war would most likely results in Covenant victory if nothing drastic should happened.
In that event this place should serve as a new starting point of humanity, with him at the top leading the way of course.
Anyway before that he should deal with more pressing matters like food and shealter, then he'll also have to set up an identity.
The first two is easily solved as he had been trained to survive in almost virtually all environments, as he just pick the pockets of a few random people and went tolive in a hotel.
Now in his hotel room while eating a hamburger he just bought from from a stall, he thinks of a way to set up an identity, after thinking of a workable plan he be to searches through the data pad or scroll as they called them here for something, once he found what he is looking began hacking and forgeing an identity.
A few hours later after checking and rechecking everything he finally has a workable identity all that is left now is tying up a few loose ends.
His new identity is the adopted son of a fairly rich (not super rich) old man living alone in his mansion on the other side of Vale. The old man has had his entire family killed by a grimm attack and he is the only one that survived that incident since then he has locked himself in his mansion living of the wealth his family had accumulated, he is an isolationist and hasn't talked to anybody face to face in a long while.
That is just perfect, no connection and has money. Now all that is left is to secretly kill the old man and making it seem like he is still alive until William reached of legal age. then William can just say the old man had a heart attack and passed away.
Once all things checked out then, he sneaking his way to the front of the mansion. The mansion looked old, unmaintained and abandoned.
Anyway he sneaked his way inside and head straight to the master bedroom. He soon arrived in front of the sleeping old man,
William have no problems killing the old man, it is after all for humanity... and a small part for him. Not that this is his first time killing anybody ether as he had killed quite a few people during during spars or training missions.
Granted that most of those were accidents but some of those weren't and you know what? He fealt nothing when he killed them, it's like...picking flowers or stomping on a bug or pusshing a big red button.
Anyway he gently and carefully placed his hands in the around the old man's head.
Careful not to wake him up, once in place with one twist.
Snap
The old man sleeps for eternity.
Once that was done it's time to dispose of the body, he first drains the blood and flush it down the toilet.
Then he takes out the internal organs and puts them aside to be prossed later, he then seperated the meat and bones.
He grinds the bones into powder and flushes it down the toilet.
'the sewer is such a great invention' thought William as it just made disposing of evidense alot easier, once the remains is in the sewer system it becames practicaly untrace able and unfind able.
Now all that is left is the meaty parts which he turned into meat paste and just like the rest flushed into the toilet, as to not clog up the toilet he seperated them in batches before he flushes them.
With all that done all he has to do is clean the place up which a lot hared task.
A few days later the mansion now looked as good as new, with the dust gone and a new paint job and the millions of other things he has to fix.
Now for now he'll serve as the old man's 'proxy', if anybody asked he'll just tell them that after his father/grand father (old man) got attacked by grimm and having his entire family killed, he developed a fear of the outside and William will be doing the dealings in his stead.
He also added that he'll be inheriting the bussness anyway so it's best to start early, having the best education of in the hundereds (don't know how many planets the Covenant glassed at this point) of worlds in the 26th century where major corporations that could easily put the Schness Dust Company to shame, at this this point they might as well start bartering.
After seting up a company called O.N. Industries (can't think of anything) or simply ONI with the ONI logo with the letters of UNSC erased and the word Office of Naval Intelligence replaced with three simpl big letters.
For now ONI will begin selling painkillers, tranquilizers, truth serum, biofoam, fertilizers, pesticides and other drugs and chemicals later it will began to expand to include flash cloning, gene theraphy and more complicated moraly questionable (from the local's stand point) products , after that ONI will begin expanding into other industries.
A few weeks later his products finally hit the market and it mostly meet with average sales, though some of the products did manage to catch a few people's attention like biofoam and truth serum, Atlas seemed very interested in the truth serum while the hunters and huntresses seem more interested in the biofoam.
Biofoam is like spray that can stops bleeding and hold the body together untill the injured can get to aid and best the part of all is that after getting medical aid the body can absorbs the biofaom, meaning that you don't need to pull out the biofoam in order to get healed.
This is truly a revolutionary invention.
Months gone by and bussness is going well and expanded a few times, most of the sale came from biofoam and truth serum which is being bought by mostly law informents, Atlas, hunters and huntresses. there is also a few unamed mayjor buyers but he didn't put much thought about them as what ever they do with it, it is none of his business.
Gene therapy and flash cloning is also about to be made public, William expects there will be much heated debate on this so he contacts a few people from different hospitals and offers them free treatment with the 'new experimental' flash cloning technique and in turn all they have to do to say good things about it.
Gene therapy can cure a variety genetic defects, this naturally would be very expensive. William expected this to be very popular with the rich and powerful, they would naturally want their child to have those perfect teeth for that perfect smile.
Flash cloning can replace lost limbs and organs, William expects most of the heat will come from this as people would question the ethicality of this. So that is why he is contacting hunters how lost their limbs for a free treatment.
People in remnant viewed the hunters very highly, having a few them put a few good words would have a tremendous impact on people's support.
While doing that he ordered the construction of factories to be setup and prepares for his eventual expantion in to other industries.
In the next few years he'll began introducing hydrgen engine along with other alternatives to dust. naturally he'll start with something simple and primitive and gradually move to more complicated designs over time.
'now if only there is some unwanted by product that dust makes making people migrate from dust to alternative solutions' William thought about how people migrated out oil in the 21st century due to global warming.
The problem with dust is that dust practically runs everything, any problem could be solve by using dust in one way shape or form. What William is trying to do, is step away from such convenient well establish establish energy source, he'll most likely face a lot oppositions from dust companies.
Anyway that is still in the far future it would take a while before the factories to be designed let alone be built, it would take significantly shorter time if he would just build normal factories normally found on remnant that runs on dust but that would defeating the point now.
It would be like an environmentalist driving a car to work in a factory or like an obese man blabbering about a diet while eating a cake.
What he want is a factory that is dust free and people free, fully automated factory that requires no one at all to fuction, people needs rest while machines doesn't, machines can work round the clock and they don't make mistakes.
Also the Schnee Dust Company is heavily critizied about their practice of under paying faunus making them the prime target for a faunus terrorist group known as the white fang.
From a bussness stand point what the Schnee Dust Company practice of hiring cheap faunas labor is what most bussness people would do, if you could make more with less then why wouldn't you do it? It's simple really, it is not done because they have animal ears it because they are cheap.
If the workers are so disatisfied with their pay for the amount of work they do, then why don't they just find another job that pays a bit more for the amount of work the do?
If no applies for the job then employer will be forced to raised pay until somebody applies for it, it's like the concept of a job that pays nothing then nobody would apply for it.
Well if people are going to critized for making the most with as little cost as possible, then it's better to hire none at all. William isn't going to play ball their way he is going play ball his way.
The actual fact is that the Schnee Dust Company is making jobs for faunas as hiring humans is much more expensive, hiring faunas is the cost effective solution meaning that the faunas gets the jobs while the humans don't.
As for William's plan he is not going make any jobs because he is not going to hire any body because his factories are automated meaning that he is the only one profiting from such an andeaver, it like having slaves only better cause machines don't need to rest and people won't criticize you for making it work nonstop.
Since he isn't hiring anybody, nobody would criticize him for under paying or the mistreatment of machines meaning that the white fang would have no reason at all to attack him, full automation also serves to help guard company secrets as machines don't talk.
Even so it's still best to have an elite security force at the ready just incase the white fang suddenly has the bright idea of raiding his stuff, with that thought he ordered the increase of the number of security personnel and also the retraining of the entire security force he currently have.
He wanted them to be at least marine standard, but turning fat Bob over who is only good at seating in front monitors taking naps into a mean green marine who would tear apart any trespasser would be extremely.
Of course William knows that is difficult order so he'll give them time and incentives.
He'll set the time limite to untill the new factories are finished and they will be payed a more than an atlas soldier, as for how much? it depends on how good they are. They will be issued with ONI made armor, ONI made guns and a discount to ONI products and he might give them a few drugs to help them.
Anyway with all things taken care of he all he has now has plenty of free time, he will now try and find somebody to unlock his 'aura' if he has one or if it really exist in the first place.
William is very skeptical about the soul power nonsense, because so far the UNSC haven't been able to find any evidence that the soul exist. It can give a person spartan like strength, speed, a shield and a random super power.
The way the 'soul' manifest itself is giving him headache, he tried rationalized it but he just couldn't a pattern at all so he tries find some one unlock it for him, see if there is some truth in this whole mumbo jumbo.
A few hours later a few later after paying some guy to unlock it, the resuilt is really surprising. It seems that there might be some truth in this whole 'aura' thing after all as he now could feel his increased strenght and speed.
With his new found power he did some test to see if this aura thing can be with a spartan's augmentation using every thing he saw Kurt does so far as his measuring stick.
After a series of trials he soon so came to the conclusion that the power of this aura thing is far below to that of spartan augmentation, as he came nowhere near to the stuff Kurt did.
'this thing is overly hyped' he thought.
While it indeed gave him a nice power up, it however is severely lacking compared to a spartan's augmentation.
