(Random Note placed above the main plot-This was made on short notice due to...complitcations...so...do not expect an extremly detailed portion, however the actually chapters themselves, will be much more...organized and...well made than this...improv. Also, special thanks for the people at the WoT forums who inspired me to do this. Now I have to go stop the Black Hole is my closet from destroying everything, so... see you at some later time. -CeleryFox)


Prologue-To decide fate...

It was early in the morning, a rather foggy day, Mica, a commander for one of his academy's teams, was thinking hardly about the Summer Panzer Cup. The last round of the preliminaries was today, if their academy won this, they would get into the Summer Cup. But really, he was thinking about the Winter Cup six months ago. His school had gotten into the finals for that one, and faced Assault Mauser Academy, one by one the their teams were destroyed, they had put up a good fight, but couldn't even knock out one of Krupp's tanks. It was only Mica, his team, and Krupp's Flag tank, a King Tiger, as they sat in an isolated portion of the battlefield. He stared down that gun barrel before...they had fired onto their tank. He stopped for a moment in order to gather his thoughts and quietly sat there. He soon got hungry and decided to make breakfast.

A hour later, the rest of his team woke up, and they walked into the team dorm to find Mica waiting for them.

"Did we do something wrong again Mica?' Naoki sleepily uttered out.

"Oh nothing, I just wanted to wait for you guys to wake up, nothing more, nothing less." Mica replied back. After a moment of silence, the group went to make and eat their breakfast without Mica. He sat there for a while before standing up. "If you will excuse me, I have to wake up the other teams for the last preliminary match."Mica had told the others as he left their dorm.

"Have you noticed,"Rin asked"that Mica has been getting more and more...how do you say it, stern, as we near the Summer Panzer Cup starting date"

"Well,"Tsuki said back"we did lose to Krupp 6 months ago, he's trying to make sure it doesn't happen again, you know?"

"Yeah I suppose so." Rin whispered quietly.

"But," Alan noisily said as he ate" he doesn't have to be,"he paused to swallow"so...creepy, it's been getting on my nerves, and I'm kinda of scared of him now." Suddenly, the bell rang, which meant that the match would start in 2 hours.

Naoki walked to his room and said" Get your uniforms, we have to get ready." He then entered his room and shut the door.

"Alright..." The three said in unison at the table. There Rin noticed something.

"Wait, Naoki didn't even have breakfast, strange fellow today." She whispered to herself, before entering her room to change.


One and a Half Hour later...

Mica stared at the map for awhile in the foggy air. The area was quite wooded and there was a central hill to it all. There was a more settled area with a small village, which could provide a good temporary base if needed but that was isolated from the main road. There were a few water holes here and there and the terain was muddy due to the fog. In the far east however was an area high up than the other hills. He had 9 other tanks under his command,a rule made that only 10 teams were allowed in preliminaries. What ever decision Mica made for the group of 10 would decide their fate. The opponent they faced was a Russian school, known as Gate Ridge High School, mainly using the heavy hitters of the Russian arsenal and using them in devastating ambushes set up by the camouflage geniuses of their school. To execute their battle plan, he split the 10 teams until 3 groups, each with their own objective.

Group A was made up of the two OF-Type-89 heavy tanks and a Type-17pdr Tank Destroyer, they would advanced into town and try to hold it, the two OF-Type 89s had extra armor plates welded to them, so they would be able to withstand more firepower than they normally B were the two remaining Type-17pdrs and a Type-40 S, they would hold the high ground in the east, and set a up sniping post, where the Type-40 S, with its quick speed and smaller profile, would spot for accurate fire. Group C were Mica and the remaining tanks, they would take the central hill and hold it the best they could, for the hill had a major advantage because there was much cover on it. But all three groups would have to be careful, due to the fog and humidity, the dirt had become mud, and their tracks would slip on steep hills or bumps. Eventually the three groups would meet back up to form a battle formation. Gazing at the map one more time, he sighed at the lack of detail on it. He gave out the final orders to the other teams, and had his team ready the tank.

So in the final minutes before the match, he counted quietly to himself as his watch ticked clockwise endlessly.

"5,4,3,2,1...alright teams, let's ROLL OUT!"he shouted out and with that, the 10 tanks chugged off towards their designated locations, soon, both schools would face each other and a fierce battle will be ignited.
