A/N: CHAPTER UPDATED AS OF 13-04-2018. MORE UPDATES CAN OCCUR.

It is in human nature, that we are curious and always want to know more. We want to explore our In case if you didn't k surroundings as well as ourselves. When the jump drive was invented, humanity got a new opportunity to explore greater worlds than earth. However, curiosity can also fade, as the public did to the frontier.

Now what the frontier is, it's a very big region of planets that are suitable for human life clustered close together. However, the public demand for earth increased to they send troops to the frontier, who in return. Fought back hard.

As of now, it has been 13 years since the battle of Demeter and 8 years after Jack cooper destroyed Typhon and saved the Militias HQ of Harmony. The 3rd militia fleet had been tasked to explore new worlds in the unknown regions of the frontier. Thus stumbling upon remnant.


On board the MCS Andromeda

Within the depth of the unknown regions, a couple of lonely vessels moved through the empty void of stars

"We have just entered the unknown regions of the frontier sir." A grunt told his Grand Commander.

"Roger that, prepare the jump drive" The Grand commander answered

"Preparing Jump drive," The grunt said while preparing the jumpdrive.

"Jump on my mark," The grand commander said and glanced at the unknown sectors of the frontier, well. Unknown for the militia at least.

"Roger" The grunt answered and finished preparing the jumpdrive

"3, 2, 1 Mark" The grand commander counted

"Jumping" The grunt simply answered before the jump drive sat off.A blue fade came to their eyes and soon the blue fade illuminated their vision for a short time.


The MCS exited jump status near an unexplored planet. It reminded much of Harmony and earth, having oceans. Mountains forest and much more. The ones who glanced at it from the ship could not help but to smile.

"What's the gravity on This planet?" Charlie asked while loading his monarch titan.

"50% of harmony, so low gravity" Echo answered and embarked into his custom Ion titan.

"Yeah, it will be best if we try to adjust or gear to the low gravity," Hades said while cleaning his own custom Kraber.

"And get a drink" Oblivion said as he loaded some explosives onto his titan

.

"Okay boys, cut the chatter. We are deploying in 2 minutes" Echo said and walked towards the titanfall hatch.

"Roger that," The rest said and embarked into their titans and walked towards their titanfall hatches.

"Deploying in 3. 2. 1. MARK" Echo said as he got shot out of the ship creating a smoke line as they approached the surface of the planet.


The four titans hit the ground with a large sound causing nearby birds to flee from the nearby trees. Echo breached his dome shield and gave them a sign to follow. Hades piloting his own custom Northstar titan decided to get an overview and activated his hover granting him a large view.

That's when he noticed something strange, there was a temple-like building but what was even odder was that there was going on there. This teenage girl was running straight up a straight cliff strangling a gigantic black bird while running up. There were these strange symbols on the wall. The girl proceeded to straight up cut the head off the giant black bird.

"Guys, I got a visual on a teenage girl who just cut off the head of a gigantic bird," Hades said a bit curious.

"What distance?" Echo asked not really believing him

"3.214 klicks north-north-west" Hades answered and pointed.

"Well, we better get going then" Echo answered just to get interrupted by Oblivion

"And get some drinks!" He said in a good mood. Everyone else just heard a sound of drinking something.

"Oblivion, you might be able to drink as much vodka without getting drunk or damaging your body, but keep it down will ya?" Charlie said as he kept walking.

"Sure sure, whatever" Oblivion answered.

The group of pilots continued through the forest towards the inhabitants hopefully they could make contact and see just where the hell they wound up Oblivion stopped moving a bottle of whiskey away from his lips, he looked to the motion tracker in his titan. "Uhh, Guy's we got incoming"

"Pilot, I have detected numerous possible hostile life forms. Suggesting investigation" November. Echo's titan said casually.

"Yeah, that might be a good idea," Hades said as he began to charge up his railgun.

The sound of footsteps and growling became louder as the threat closed in until it stopped, the tension was high within the group until they picked up a radio frequency.

"WE ARE SURROUNDED BY HOSTILE LIFEFORMS… SHIT JOHN WATCH YOUR BACK" A male voice said and after that came the sounds of a chaotic gunfire. "WE ARE SURROUNDED AND WE NEED HELP, WE CANT HOLD THEM OFF MUCH LONGER"

They looked at each other for a minute before something spoke.

"This is Charlie of titan squad 3CH0, we are heading towards your location. hold it tight boys were on our way."

" A new voice was heard, but a very familiar one. The rest of the group looked at Charlie who just said:

"Come on let's go, our buddies are going to die otherwise," Charlie said and walked towards their fellow militia buddies.

"Let's go team" Echo yelled as they all charged towards their friends in combat.

But unbeknownst to them, a third party would soon arrive.


Ruby rose stared out over the emerald forest she and her team have made it back to the cliffs by all accounts they had finished initiation, but then there were those meteors that landed further inside the forest.

Suddenly her scroll lit up, a set of unknown voices coming from the device "WE ARE *Radio static* Y HOSTILE LIFEFORMS… SHIT JOHN WATCH YOU-* further static*" The male voice was barely audible the sounds of gunfire soon followed. "WE ARE SUR-*Static* WE NEED HELP, WE CANT HOLD THEM OFF MUCH LONGER" The channel then went completely static with only a few breaks of gunfire and screams.

A monstrous roar followed before the voice cut off Ruby glanced down at her scroll then deep into the forest she could just make out a small pillar of smoke beginning to form in the distance

"Oh, no," Ruby said, deploying Crescent Rose Ruby leaped off the cliff straightening out her body she descended towards the stone architecture below, thrusting her arm out she lodged the blade of her sniper scythe hybrid into the stone wall of the canyon slowing her descent.

Leaping away from the wall Ruby skidded to a halt, turning to her left her she saw the future members of RWBY and JNPR jogging up to her.

"Did anyone else hear that message?" Ruby asked

"Yeah, same here" Yang responded her own scroll in hand

"Could it be the other initiates?" Pyrrha asked worry present in her tone.

"Maybe," Weiss said stepping forward "But it's hardly our place to intervene I'm sure the professors have safety protocols in place for such events."

"I don't know guy's I mean did you hear them. they sounded kinda weird" Ruby said

"Yeah!" Nora piped in "Did yah hear what they said, "Hostile lifeforms! they could be aliens sent down to abduct us and experiment on our brains," The ginger said, with an ecstatic smile on her face which only served to creep the others out.

"Nora" Ren deadpanned "The transmission sounded more military, it could be a group of hunters was ambushed by the Grimm."

"We should tell the professors" Weiss cut in. "I'm sure they'll be capable of planning some sort of Rescue operation."

"If we wait that long they could be goners," Jaune said

"Jaune's right" Ruby cut in" I mean did you hear the Grimm on the other side whatever it is must have been big." Ruby glanced down at her scroll "We can try contacting them." Suddenly the young Reapers scroll roared to life, A new voice was heard one much clearer than the previous message.

"This is Charlie of titan squad 3CH0, we are heading towards your location. Sit tight boys were on our way."


"WHERE ARE YOU? *Radio static*? WE NEED IMMEDIATE *Even more, radio static*ES DOWN TO 25% AND WE ARE GETTING H *static* ERED"

"We are on our way, hold on. ETA is 20 seconds" Echo said as he rushed to save his fellow soldiers.

"Thank god. *Static and then some gunshots* We are really thankful" The male grunt said again.

"Don't think about it. I can see the clearing." Echo said as he breached the forest and entered a bloody clearing.

Several grunts were dead, multiple vehicles had been destroyed. Echo heard a scream and looked to his right. A female grunt was being torn apart and eaten alive by several black wolves like creatures. His robotic sensors then fell on something big on the other side. It was the bear-like, but it had bone armor of sorts and was huge.

The bear-like creature charged towards the surviving grunts and picked one up before slamming the poor grunt into the ground. The bear turned its face towards a male grunt and Echo heard several voices on his channel.

"HELP, ITS GONNA KILL ME" That was the male grunt who had called out for help earlier and was just about to be killed. And the rest of Echo's squad.

"Air support inbound," Hades said before breaching the tree's leaves and began to hover around and pick out the wolf-like monsters.

"FOR FRONTIER VODKA" Oblivion was heard and he soon emerged with a quad rocket and began to hurl hell on the wolves.

"I SAID KEEP THE VODKA DOWN OBLIVION" Charlie said and began to shoot the wolves that tried to kill some of the grunts.

"HELP ME FOR FUCKS SAKE," The male grunt said. The bear was just about to kill him before a few missiles slammed into it turning its attention away from him. A titan ran up and grabbed the bear by its paws and slammed it onto the ground before sending a barrage of missiles into the bear's face, killing it instantly. It was an Ion. The Ion was blue with four pads on its back. Two looked to be fit for missiles and the two others looked like some sort of laser pod. But an ion shooting missiles? They don't normally have missiles. That one gotta be modified because it wasn't a vanguard for sure.

The ion's hatch opened and a simulacrum jumped out.

"Are you ok?" Echo asked while shooting and picking off nearby monsters.

"Yeah, but my brother, h-h-he-e i-is de-a-d" The grunt cried.

"I'm sorry for your brother. What is your name?" Echo said trying to comfort the grunt.

"My name is John, and thank you." The grunt answered.

"Hi John, my name is Echo." Echo said and helped the grunt get up. "Any survivors boys?"

"No, not yet. These damned things sure as hell are efficient at killing." Charlie said sadly.

"Why did these animals attack you? Did you go near a nest of sorts?" Echo asked

"No, we just wandered and set up camp here in the clearing, everyone was in a bad mood because our squad leader fell off a cliff few minutes prior."

"Shit," Echo said and embarked."Here, climb onto my hand. You will need rest"

"Thanks, Echo," John said still half crying. And climbed onto the hand of the giant robot.

Echo lifted the grunt up to the top of his hull and made sure that the grunt didn't fall off.

"Uhm Echo? Do you remember that girl I talked about? The one near the temple thing?"

"Yes. Why?" Echo asked confused.

"Well, I kinda got her on a channel," Hades said. "Should I add you to it?"

"Yes add me to it," Echo asked confused. Why would a little girl be out here?


Ruby stared down at the scroll in her hands as a robotic voice came through "What do you want kid?, this is a restricted military channel" The same robotic voice said.

"Umm, I'm sorry about this but we heard a lot of screaming and gunfire, we were heading towards you, before we may have accidentally contacted you through our scrolls," Ruby said she had no idea who these men were the first one seemed nice enough although he sounded a little weird at first.

This guy sounded more professional maybe some kind of military officer from Atlas, the man then sighed before speaking "Ok first off kid I'm gonna need your name."

"Oh, uh right… Ruby Rose huntress in training..." Ruby stammered, Weiss stared at her for a moment her eyes narrowed "...Sir"

"Ok kid you can call me Echo, Sir just makes me feel old."

"Right," Ruby said nodding

"First off, what do you mean by 'scroll' a scroll is a piece of paper. Second off all 'Huntress'? What is that?" Echo said. "And it will be best if I could introduce myself and my group to you, and are you alone?"

"Oh, no you kinda crashed right in the middle of our initiation," Ruby said.

A moment of silence passed "What do you mean by initiation?" Echo questioned.

"To be accepted as huntresses and hunters in Beacon Academy," Ruby said confused. How did not they know about beacon academy?

"The fuck do you mean by that?" A new younger and a bit more drunk voice said.

"Oblivion for fuck's sake. There are kids here!" Echo said angrily in the new voice.

"Sorry sorry" The guy who they assumed who was Oblivion.

"Okay, Ruby I'm going to meet you in the clearing that you are standing in. Don't shoot as I got heavy titan support. We can sort this out peacefully"

"Okay… Echo?" Ruby said as she checked her weapon. Crescent Rose, if this man wanted to hurt her or her friends. She would give him hell.

"Thanks, I'm coming now" Echo said and walked into the clearing cloaked…

"Where are you?" Ruby said and looked around.

"Right here," Echo said and un-cloaked 10 meters in front of her. "Please drop your weapon"

Ruby was completely shocked. The man was a robot, the robot had multiple scars that looked like was created by war. The robot had one big blue eye, or whatever it was called. (A/N: if you want to know what Echo looks like then search: Phase Shift Pilot Titanfall 2. And then go under pictures) The robot continued walking towards her until it stopped and began to talk.

"Hello, Ruby. So yeah, this is me." Echo said as he raised his arms in confession. "Who are your friends?"

"Ummmmm… Oh right. This is Weiss" Ruby said and pointed to an around 15-18-year-old girl who was in snow white clothing.

"Hello Echo, my name is Weiss. Weiss Schnee" The girl in all white said as Echo let out a small chuckle. "Is something wrong?" Ruby asked.

"No no its alright, it's just that your name means white snow in German." Echo chuckled.

"German?" Ruby asked confused.

"Yeah, its a country back on earth. The well was last I heard from earth which is over 15 years ago but that's what you can expect when you destroy Demeter."

"Earth? Demeter?" A girl in black with a sort of emo look on her. She also wore a bow.

"Yeah, earth the birthplace of humans and Demeter is the… Or was before the Militia destroyed it and canceled the only way to the frontier for years" Echo said shocked.

The group of eight looked at Echo and each other "What

Remnant is the birthplace of humans! And Faunus alike" A girl with yellow hair said weirdly.

"Faunus? What's Faunus?" Echo asked very confusedly as he entered the internet of the frontier to check. "A Faunus is a fictional being. It's often associated with fables"

"Fictional? No, they are not" The yellow-haired girl said angrily.

"Whoa whoa calm down. I don't mean any offense." Echo said as he backed and tapped on the side of his head. "Charlie Oblivion and Hades come here"

Then a big rumble began as the trees began to move away four different places. 4 Gigantic robots emerged. One was tanky and carried some sort of big rocket launcher. The second one was a lot skinnier than the tanky one, it carried a giant rifle-like weapon. The two last ones were very similar to each other but still different. One of them was particularly more armored and weaponized than the others. Ruby and her friends got into fighting positions

"Calm down, they are with me" Echo sighed

"Oh uh ok," Ruby said as she lowered Crescent Rose.

"November. Can you come here, please? The rest of you disembark and introduce yourselves" Echo said as the robot who looked to be the leader of the group walked forth. "Yes, Pilot?" The giant robot asked?

"Introduce yourself to our new friends here," Echo said and looked at Ruby and her group as his fellow pilots disembarked and walked towards the group.

"Hello Ruby, I am NS 2002 or commonly referred to as 'november'" The Giant robot said.

The young reaper promptly squealed in delight vanishing in a shower of rose petals appearing on top of the titan alongside John who stared at the fifteen-year-old in slight amusement and shock

"How the hell did you do that?" John asked

"What you mean my semblance?" Ruby questioned raising an eyebrow

"Your what now?" Echo said

"You guys don't know what a semblance is?" Yang said stepping forward

"Care to explain," Echo asked

"You know basically your own personal superpower, you know the thing derived from our aura the very manifestation of our soul's protective barrier, superpowers. Am I ringing any bells"

"Hmmm interesting, this aura could certainly help save militia lives," Charlie said as he stepped forward. "But no. Never heard of it in my 15 years of combat medic experience."

Their conversation was quickly cut short as an aircraft roared overhead "We got incoming people" Echo said as he pointed his splitter rifle at the incoming redying the missile launchers on his titan tracking the aircraft as it closed in

"Wait, Don't shoot that. The bullhead from Beacon" Pyrrha cried out

"Hold fire, now!" Echo ordered

Hades stowed his homing missiles as the craft came to land in the center of the clearing, the rear ramp dropped and two figures emerged, a man with greying silver hair he wore a grey suit and green scarf a pair of glasses and behind them sat a pair of brown eyes showed a man who had seen the worst mankind could dish out.

Behind him was a younger woman with blond hair held up in a bun, a pale complexion, and emerald green eyes. She wore a white blouse and black corset, a purple and black cape along with black legging. she adjusted her glances green eyes narrowed as she held a riding crop in her grasp.

"All of you back away from that thing this instant!" Glynda commanded, raising her riding crop pointing it directly at Echo

"Hey, This Thing is a person. K?" Echo said annoyed. "Plus I'm not looking to hurt anyone other than the IMC."

"Glynda," Ozpin said causing her to lower her riding crop, before turning his attention to the automaton before him. "Who, or quite frankly what are you."

"My name is Echo, I am an elite pilot of the 3rd militia fleet. And with all due respect, sir, I'm a simulacrum" Echo said with a small hint of annoyance, turning to November he waved his hand out. "November, please lower your weapon, you could make our friends here nervous" Who instantly lowered her weapon.

He turned his attention back to Ozpin taking a few steps forward Glynda's hand tightened on her weapon, as he approached "before I say anything more, I'd like to get what's left of my men out of this god has forsaken forest, And you bloody" he pointed to Glynda who narrowed her eyes "Please chill, I'm not in the mood for any more shit today."

"Very, well," Ozpin said as Glynda staring at him incredulously

"Professor Ozpin you can't be serious these things, are a danger not only to the students but Vale as well."

"I'm not a thing, I might not look like it. I was once human. Died 6 years ago in combat, had the right mindset and was skilled enough to become a simulacrum. And my buddies and I don't harm civilians, let alone children " Echo said a bit pissed.

"Professor. Echo and the others don't seem that bad, they could have attacked us at any time but they didn't. doesn't that show they don't want to hurt us." Ruby pleaded with the blond combat instructor.

"Glynda" Ozpin pressed

The blond simply turned and began making her way back to the Bullhead.

"I'm guessing you're Ozpin?" Echo said as he stepped forward to give hands to the Beacon headmaster.

The headmaster reached out taking the robotic appendage "Echo I believe?"

"Finally using my name?" He said cockily

Ozpin hummed in amusement "Your allies are free to come with us but your titans as you call them must remain here."

"That's a negative sir," Echo said as he shook his head "You see, I'm linked to my titan. My mind and her OS are linked together and she doesn't function as well without me. And on this planet? That's a big no, no."

Ozpin glanced up at the machine. it's massive blue optic locked onto him following his movements "I'll see what I can do."

"Thank you," Echo said as he walked towards November as she opened her hatch. He pulled out a rifle of sorts alongside two pistols. Echo noticed that Ozpin looked weirdly at him "Just my guns. I don't go anywhere without one."

Holstering his weapons, he joined the others as they made their way towards the aircraft, glancing back at November he spoke: "Stay put we'll be back soon enough".

"Roger that. Bye Echo" November responded

Echo waved his goodbye turning back to the others, boarding the aircraft he took a seat alongside Hades and oblivion

"Hey" oblivion nudged Echo gaining his attention leaning in and whispering "Did you see the rack on her" Oblivion whistled while nudging his head towards Glynda

"For fuck's sake Oblivion" Echo chuckled as he punched Oblivion on his shoulder. "You never grow up in that sector of your brain. And I love you for that." Oblivion gave him a weird look.

"No oblivion not that way. As a friend man" Echo deadpanned as the bullhead took of bound for Beacon.
