Due to Popular demand it is hear. I will post all the stories I wrote while at basic training starting with this one. Hope you enjoy and please feel free to tell me what you think.
Chapter 1: The beginning
Now I know what you're thinking. Another story about a group of friends who are sucked into remnant. But what if they didn't want to go back from the start. Three friends will know of that life.
"And now for the finals!" Yells the announcer. "Our two finalists are the best of the best. Our first is Mistral's Pyrrha Nikos!" The crowd goes wild as Pyrrha takes to the field. "And her competitor. The mystery man with a rifle. Stack!" There are a few cheers but mostly whispers about my appearance. I had military ACU's, a patrol cap, combat boots, a face shield with a skull, and sun glasses. "You will each go to your own range and get as many targets within the time limit. Remember the further the target the more points you get." We separate and go to our ranges as the targets pop up. I have multiple magazines next to me and I load one up. "You have five minutes. Ready? Go!" I aim at the far targets and start to take them out rapidly. By the third minute I had a huge lead and decided to play a game. I fire at the closest target and before it pops back up I have to hit the next.
After the entire 5 minutes were up we were told to stop. "Alright the results are in. Our three time champion, Pyrrha, Came in with 1780 points." Everyone cheers. "And her opponent came in with... Oh my." There are mixed reactions and I smile under my mask. "A whopping 3125 points. We have our winner ladies and gentlemen. Give it up for our new champion Stack!" Everyone is shocked but soon cheer loudly.
I get the cash for the tournament and Pyrrha stops me outside.
"Nice shooting." she says smiling.
"Thank you. I train every now and then."
"By the looks of it you do it religiously too."
"Well I hope to face you next time."
"Unfortunately this is my last tournament for a while."
"Oh? Why's that?"
"I'm going to Beacon. You know with your skills you could be able to join."
"Sorry but I have a policy. If my brothers can't go I won't."
"I see. Well good match." She nods and walks off.
I get back to me and my bro's makeshift home in a cave. "I'm back."
"Stack we have a guest." Says Nathan. I go deeper in and see a man with silver hair, a green vest, and a cane of sorts.
"Hello there." says the man.
"What do you want?" I say a little to harshly.
"Stack calm down." says Dylan.
"Sorry. Sorry. Too many damn Grimm out here. Got attacked coming back in."
"I can see how that could be a problem." says the man.
"I'm sorry. Who are you?"
"My name is Ozpin. And I would like to offer you three a spot in my school. Already paid for of course."
"Shit. You make a compelling offer."
"I say we go." Says Dylan and Nathan nods.
"Whelp I've been out voted. You have yourself a deal."
"If you would like, I can allow you to stay the night at the academy. Tomorrow everyone else will be arriving." Says Ozpin.
"Warm beds. Warm food. I'm IN!" Shouts Dylan.
"It would be a nice change of pace." says Nate.
"Three to zero. We'll accept the offer." I say and the man nods. We head outside only to see a Deathstalker. "Scorpio!" We all scatter and Dylan runs at it. I fire a grenade out of my rifle and it stuns the beast long enough for Dylan to start the plan. He slams the ax end of his hammer into the beast and pulls on a leaver causing dust to coat said creature. He jumps back, weapon in hand, and I toss up a home made incendiary grenade. "Nate! Skeet shot!" Nate waists no time as I put up a shield. He shoots the grenade and it explodes causing the fire to land on the other dust creating a chain reaction. At the end there was nothing left. "Another for the books boys."
"That was impressive." says Ozpin. "I don't think you really need to prove yourself after that performance. You managed to take out one of the most dangerous grimm in less than 30 many can do that."
"Kill or be killed with us." I say. We get on a bullhead and I take one last look at our makeshift home.
The bullhead lands on a platform and we all walk off. We get introduced to the school before we head to the room we got. I set down my rifle and equipment to the side. I lay on the bed and the others look at me.
"You alright dude?" asks Nate.
"Too tired for this." I say.
"Want us to bring back food?" asks Dylan.
"Nah. I'll ear in the morning."
"Alright brotha. Get some sleep." I nod and fall asleep. At least for a bit.
There's the first chapter. Hope you all enjoyed. And I'll have the next one soon I promise. Although a lot is happening right now. A fellow story writer and a fan of mine is in a coma and I'm trying to be there for her friend. I truly hope she's alright but as I would say. Now's not the time for sleep! Well for me it is but that's irrelevant. Also my grandmother is going in for heart surgery so a lot is happening. I hope they both will be fine. Till next time. Stack out.
