Disclaimer I don't own 1632 series -I wish- no it belongs to Eric flint also all characters are based off fiction

Hey this has been on my mind for way to long because of the the fact of there basically being no 1632 fanfictions which I think I sad. SO in that regard this I why i write this. -plus I'm a sucker for our world going to alternative ones-

So I decided to write one and make some changes I thought would be cool. Also this is my first fanfic tips and reviews are cool and if you want to say I'm bad go ahead won't hurt me

This will begin right in the middle of the first book of the series where the Swedish are about to engage Tully, Mike is the leader Grantsville.

And the wedding of Jeff and Gretchen is just about to happen.

Fort Polk, Vernon Parish

Prologue

It was a usually day at the fort. Training of men and women of the 36th infantry and 1st battalion was going well. Overall it was going to be good day of production. Resupply of food, medicines, fuel, and ammo had been delivered putting the fort at full stock. Personnel from all combat units have been called up along with medical ones for a count off and to see if any of them where going to be needed in Iraq for the rotation period.

The commanding general and CO's of all units where in a meeting discussing the future of the fort when an earthquake and bright flash of light causing most personnel to stumble and others to bunker down and in flash they where gone.

The second Ring of Fire had occurred.

Chapter 1 A new beginning

Soon everyone was getting up slowly, soldiers that had been training had begun helping each other out and Officer in the meeting getting up and making sure everyone was okay.

Brigade general Harold looks around: what the hell just happened?!?

Post commander Mcburn: don't know sir but I suggest we organize the men and see if we can't contact command. General Harold nods and gets on the phone but can't get a signal.

General Harold: Damn can't get a signal so phones are a no go...

Captain Daniel: sir I think you should take a look outside..., pointing to the new terrain

Outside men are looking at the ring and mutter at the forest terrain that look eerily like a European forests.

1632 date ??

Grantsville, Germany

Mike had have a tough few weeks after being teleported to Germany from West Virginia. His town was now in the middle of Germany during the 30 years war in the third phase with Sweden attacking the Holy Roman Empire and all. So suffice to say it was not looking good they had been lucky to help a jewish women and her father to learn more about where they were. This women named Rebecca was actually assimilating quickly into the American culture and with her fathers family connections and access to high places they coulld begin trading but this would take time. Overall it was looking good for the short run, but ammo and energy would quickly run out and without reliable allies or raw resources they wouldn't last long in the long run.

sighing and leaving Mike to think of what to do when all of suddenly a earthquake and blinding light happened.

Mike: wha...??? Out of nowhere being blown back and falling out his chair. A min or two it stoped and people around town started getting up and win confused looks began wondering what was happening.

For Mike he simple got up and look outside is window ran down the hall to make sure his cabinet was alright.

Fort Polk, date unknown

Location: unknown

It took an hour but the base was reorganized and units and to see who was wounded and surprisingly no one was hurt. Units where ordered to patrol the nearby area and helicopters are put on stand by to fly around to see if the terrain change was real.

General Harold: Gentlemen from what the patrols are telling me is that the perimeter is essentially a ring and that we appear to be somewhere in Europe..

Post Commander: sir this sounds to familiar, hasn't this happened before? -looking around for support on this-

Captain Lee: sir you are correct..I think around 2000 a town in West Virginia up and vanished in what the called the "Ring of Fire".. so I guess it appears s the same thing .

General Harold: I see well then if that's the case then we will need the helicopters to scout the local area. *looks around* any objections?

the colonel of the air squadron: sir it will be a little hard for the boys to adjust the equipment also without GPS it maybe harder for ours more advanced aircraft and drones.

general Harold nodding: I understand but we have no choice.. *

the conference room sort opens with a sergeant walking in with some papers* saluting the sergeant produces to walk to the nearest office that being a army one and gives him the paper. Sir we have been decrying radio waves nearby and picking civilian transmissions.

General and the rest of the staff looked confused and asked what kind and how strong.

Sergeant: we believe them to be civilians because they appear to be weak and only on few airwaves and it also it appears to a few channels for the transmission to tv sir

Captain Lee: what do you mean? Channels?

Sergeant looks down and nervously says: well cartoons and a talked show sir..and the radio ones of are 1600 hundred politics and about what's happening..

General Harold: so what your telling me is you have a small town doing this ? How did you even figure this out ??

Sergeant: well sir a couple of my men decided to check the radius to see if they get anything and they picked up some and did the tv transmission we did the same and Traced then to a certain direction.

the staff is silent before the post commander ask.Which way?

...east sir, or more specific south east..

Grantsville, 1632, ???

Germany, now HRE

Mike and to gather his cabinet and planed to discuss the events that had transpired.

It had been a few weeks since the "battle of the crapper" and already the next situation was popping up.

Mike: well..any guesses on what happened earlier? Looking around his "cabinet" they really couldn't think of anything.

Mike: I see we are all in agreement on this he joked, with a small smile.

Melissa: well mike I have a theory...she was hesitant due to thinking her idea might be stupid.

James smiled and sent her a look, not one of looking down but one of curiosity.

James: Go on Melissa can't be to crazy considering where we are at.

Looking around Melissa was still hesitant but

Went on with her theory. Melissa: I believe it may have been another "Ring of Fire".

After saying that everyone was looking at her surprised, while not out right dismissing her they did have a alittle of a hard time believing that.

Frank would be the first to speak up

Frank: you know Melissa that's a good joke really but how would that even work?? Looking around for some support he realized everyone was really considering the theory -oh my your actually serious...

Melissa looked at him with a stink eye but went on. Melissa: Why of course I'm serious! It only makes logical sense put and two together..I mean when we where transported here there was a blinding light and minor earthquake so if another one has happened then it could have consequences on us!

With this everyone was silently looking at her

Ed Piazza: I mean she does have point so I think we can give her some credit.

Quentin underwood quickly jumped in

Quentin: Come on guys! Be real here if that's the case what could be possible sent back? Another future city??

Before anyone could respond a low rumble was heard in the distance, a rumble of something the Americans in the room thought they would never hear.

For Rebecca she was confused and wondering what the rumbling meant. Rebecca: What is it?

To his credit Mike was the first to compose himself to answer. Helicopters
