Chapter 2 Planing the Impossible and New Proplems
Reaper stood in the conference room with a board covered by a map of Vale. Also in the room was Neo and a few higher ranking White Fang officials who sat at a table in front of Reaper and the board. Over the map was the route the Atlesian military would use to bring in the Atlesian Knights and other military equipment.
"Look in order to face off against all of the kingdoms we need more that just dust and people, we need firepower." Reaper stated. "So whats going to happen is we are going to take an Atlesian Paladin. Me and my mutual partners will steal one, hand it over to you guys so you can make them and have a larger army. So the plan is my partner and I infiltrate their storage depot here at Fort Callahan, steal it by using some forged transfer papers and forged Identification Cards to take it without alerting the base and take it here to the ruins of Mount Glenn where we will stage our assault on Vale from. Any questions?"
"What if they won't allow you to take a Paladin or they aren't there yet?" On of the White Fang officials asked.
"They got to have blueprints somewhere if they want to keep their numbers of these things the same." Reaper stated. "Any other questions? No, well me and my partner need to get to planing so if you would excuse us."
The other men got up and left the room while Neo got up and walked over to the board and looked at it. Reaper walked next to her and also looked over his plan. He looked at Neo who had a quizzical look on her face.
"Yes this a good idea. You and I can easily steal this if we do thing correctly." Reaper replied.
Neo looked at Reaper with a now annoyed look.
"Don't look at me like that. I need someone who knows what they're doing. Plus Torchwick is too...well known for a mission like this." Reaper stated.
Neo then just looked at Reaper with an eyebrow raised.
"Look the plan is simple, we steal a couple of Atlesian military uniforms and pose as soldiers thanks to the forged military Ids, then steal a Paladin saying one of the other bases need one or take the blueprints of one and leave." Reaper explained.
The multicolored woman just continued to look at him.
"You know its easier to understand you if you speak rather than just giving me looks." Reaper stated.
Neo just shrugged. "Its easier to mess with people to not speak." Neo said.
"Really, you don't talk because you want to screw with people?" Reaper asked with his eyebrow twitching in annoyance.
"Well it works doesn't it?" Neo stated with a grin.
Reaper sighed in frustration and left the room.
Ruby came back from the library with her game board in hand. She entered the room to see her teammates gathered around each other looking at something playing on a scroll. They where watching the latest news report on a the most recent dust robbery. Ruby joined the her teammates in watching the news.
"After several interrogations with the robbers convicted of robbing the dust shop, 'Dust to Dust' the four men said that The Reaper was the one who took off with the dust from the store. They also said that The Reaper and Roman Torchwick have been working together for sometime. Some people now fear that something other than rising dust prices could be heading to Vale." The news reporter said before Weiss closed her scroll.
"So Torchwick has friends." Yang stated.
"Yeah, I wonder how many others work with him." Ruby said.
"So should we add him to the list of people that we need to catch?" Blake asked.
"Of course we should but how do we find this guy?" Weiss asked.
"We just have to know where Torchwick is to find him." Yang stared.
"Did you get them?" Reaper asked one of the White Fang members entering the hanger.
The man handed Reaper a pair of Atlesian military clearance cards both forged with pictures and fake names for Reaper and Neo. Reaper handed the man several hundred Lien and headed over to the conference room. He entered the room and walked over to the table Neo was sitting at and handed her the forged clearance card.
"This is going to be too easy." Neo said as she stood up.
"Don't get over confident there is still the task of actually stealing a several ton piece of Atlesian military hardware." Reaper stated.
"It's not going to be that hard these guys misplaced one of their own airships before...remember." Neo countered.
"Yeah they did, but these guys really want the cutting edge tech to stay under their belt so they might have these thing under really tight watch." Reaper said stating the obvious.
"Yeah that's why we use some fake papers saying another base needs one so they just allow us to take one."
"Right, that's been the plan but right now we are starting to run low on time, the next major meeting is tomorrow night and they want us to present one of the Atlesian Paladins to them there." Reaper explained.
"What! Tomorrow?" Neo asked.
"Yes that's why we are leaving now." Reaper said as he walked out of the room followed by Neo.
The two walked over to a military flatbed truck that had recently been acquired. On the flat bed was two Atlesian military uniforms that was relinquished from the driver and the passenger. The two grabbed the uniforms and headed to separate rooms and changed into the uniforms. After a few minutes the two walked out and entered the vehicle. Reaper got in the driver seat due to Neo could not reach the pedals. The truck pulled out of the hanger and headed for Fort Callahan.
A/N: The uniforms that Reaper and Neo are wearing are identical to the ones the Cross Continental Transit Tower guards where wearing. Also this would have came out on Christmas day but my plans got in the way so Merry late Christmas and Happy New Years.
