Captain Arc – Prologue

Beacon Security dept - interview room 3

This was different for him, well different from where he came from. He was sitting in an interview room, in a world unknown to him, after being brought in by a woman who was able to stop him from moving by using some sort of superpower. So yeah, different…

While waiting for the interview to start, he tried to recall how the hell he got there.

He remembers flying a plane, fighting off enemy agents trying to use a weapon on board. That weapon and its power source were heading towards his home. Unfortunately there was no way to disarm the weapon, so he did the next best thing. Crash said plane into the ocean, saving his home but sacrificing himself.

After that he woke up here, in a hospital on a strange world. When he woke up, he immediately attacked and escaped the hospital. Only, when he got outside, he was stopped by a purplish glow around his body that didn't allow him to move. With said glow coming from a blonde haired woman.

Now he was in this room, waiting to be told just what is going on. The door to the room opened, in walked the same blonde woman along with a man wearing a green suit, with grey hair and glasses carrying two cups of what he assumed was coffee.

The man sat down in front of him and passed him one of the cups. Jaune picked up the cup and smelled it's contents, plain coffee. "It's not poisoned, if you're wondering" the man across from him said.

"In my line you can't be too careful" Jaune replied. Still cautious taking a sip, it was a surprising good coffee though it could have had a bit of sugar for him.

"I'm Professor Ozpin, the headmaster of this academy, and that's Professor Goodwitch" The now named Ozpin said. "I'm sure you have many questions for us, we also have some for you."

"Well, considering that I don't know where I am, who you are, or how I got here. I think that's a fair statement." Jaune said in a calm manner. He was taken a bit back by their names. 'Did I just fall into someone's weird version of Oz?' he thought to himself. Things went from different to weird very fast.

"Well as I stated before, you are at Beacon academy. One of four Hunter academies on Remnant that train students to fight the ever present threat of Grimm." Ozpin replied. "We found you just outside the school's perimeter unconscious carrying these weapons. Then brought you to the infirmary to make sure you were okay" he then showed pictures of a circular shield with white and gold circles with 2 golden arcs in the middle, and a 1911 hand gun. "We also found these tags on you as well, with that we already know some things about you. My only question is how did you end up here and why did you attack my staff, Captain Arc?"

Jaune needed a minute to process all of this. 'Well, I'm sure not in Kansas anymore' he chuckled at his own joke in his head. Ozpin and Goodwitch gave him a weird look, what was so funny? "Sorry, this is a lot to take in." Jaune said while scratching the back of his head. "This might not make sense but, I have no clue how I actually got here. I-I think I'm on another world, i-if that makes sense."

Both teachers give him a look that almost says 'try us'. He then tells them about earth, his home and how it was destroyed by the very same weapon he was to later stop from being used on a larger city. "My mission was to stop the weapon from reaching its destination, and retrieve the power source for further examination." He didn't feel like giving them all of the details on how he became what he was, just how he got here. "It was to be sent via aircraft, and I had to stop it. Unfortunately I was delayed by a man whose skin had shrunk onto his face and turned red, he called himself the Red Skull. After dealing with him, I got on the plane as it was taking off. I couldn't disarm the weapon nor could I divert it's flight path. That left me with one option crash it in the ocean and hope I take it out with me. Next thing I know I'm here in an unknown place with unknown people, that were potential enemies. Sorry for that."

"Well that sure is an interesting story." Ozpin said. "Would you mind if me and my associate discuss things for a minute?". It made somewhat sense to him, besides he's had to deal with things that didn't make sense before.

Jaune gave a nod and the two professors stepped out. After a couple minutes of, what he heard was a little yelling from the woman and calm replies from the man, they stepped back in and the man once again sat in the same seat as before.

"We would like to make you an offer." Ozpin spoke. "Would you like to attend Beacon Academy?"
