GreatZero: Thank you for clearing up the VTOL's crafts real name. Plus, good question on who Theodor is inspired from. Theodor is inspired from Ghost Rider and the Terminator (The character) from the said films. Hawkeye is going to be an interesting character.
Port* is Left and Starboard is Right
Let us Begin.
The five hundred foot long by fifty foot wide modified long boat- The Raider- bobbed in the hurricane like storm. The only man on deck was the helms-men; he was gripping the helm with all his iron grip can bare. His whole body was breeched with water that froze on contact to his body, his hazel brown, pink, and jasmine streaked bread was covered in a thick layer of ice and frost. His fur clothing was also covered in ice and frost. His arms were made of iron and pieces of leather, they seemed to move without aid from wires or machinery.
The Helms-man quickly turns the wheel to the port side; from the sea foam jetted out was a large rock that would have damaged the ship, if not destroyed it. From the noise of the storm, the helms-men could hear a beach being bombarded by the waves generated by the hurricane like storm. The Helms-men reaches to his right and grabs hold of one of many levers that controlled parts of the modified long boat ranging from the sails angels to how the steering system of longboat was geared and much more. Pulling one of the levers, his one large rectangular sail folds closed and three large triangular sails opened and caught the wind and started moving forward towards the shores at a higher rate of speed. Reaching for a second lever, he pulled that and heard three loud explosions come from the bow of the long boat and the whistle of harpoons flying through the air filled the air. Three loud thuds were faintly heard by the Helms-men and he pulled a third lever and started to hear gears turn near the front of his ship. Gripping the helm has tightly has he could, the long boat wrenched forward and crashed onto the beach. Taking it has a sign he at his destination, the Helms-men goes below deck to his quarters.
The next morning, the Helms-men woke to hear a gunshot from outside the ship. Getting up, the Helms-men dawns his armor on and his weapons. Looking over the bow, the Helms-men sees a lady dressed in a white hooded cloak.
"Have come to challenge me?" the Helms-men shouted from the bow of his longboat, his voice was thunderous.
"I have," The lady says, "But are you willing to fight me?"
"Yes, but before we start, what is your name?" The Helms-men asks. "I hope you are the fabled Summer Rosa, because if you are her it will be a glorious day!"
"I am Summer Rosa." She said.
"I am Jefferson! Let us have at it then!" The Helms-men shouted and they he jumped from the bow. Held over his head was his modified battle-axe/lever action rifle combination.
Summer Rosa side stepped the attack and drew her scythe and swung at Jefferson. He responded by hooking his axe around the head of the scythe and jerk back, fling Summer Rosa behind him and throwing her Scythe away from her. Jefferson stood in the middle grinning.
"So you have a daughter," Jefferson asked. "If the rumors are true, I should take a visit to her. You know, show her a few things about…War."
Taking a few steps towards Summer, Jefferson grins a wicked smile. Summer raised up her hand, her aura licks off of her extended hand.
"What, you want to giv-" Jefferson said has Summer's scythe pierces his chest. Tearing his armor and ripping his organs apart. A loud shrill filled scream escaped Jefferson's lips, blood drips from the wound created by the impalement. A piece of Summer's white cloak falls to Jefferson's feet.
Soon everything started to crumble like dust in a strong gale. The scythe, Summer, the beach; all of it disappeared and something was starting to replace it. Under his knees the sand turned to a metal deck like one of a warship. Behind him was the burn wreckage of his ship, The Deliver. Getting up, Jefferson feels a revolver materialize in his right hand and a pistol in his left. In front of him stood a Lady with amber eyes and a red dress, she pitches a fireball at him. Quickly deflecting the shot with his shield, Jefferson charged The Lady with his weapons spraying a hail of bullets. The Lady stops the bullets with her hands and sends them back at him. Unprepared, Jefferson is hit in the shoulder and abdomen. Dropping his guns and shield, Jefferson activates his aura and leaps into the air. Lifting his arms above his head, Jefferson slams them down onto what seemed to be a reactor of some kind. A split-second later a massive fire ball engulfs the warship, Jefferson, and The lady in red.

Date: January 2, 2014
A loud scream came from the front door of the large cottage like house, jolting Jefferson awake in a frenzy of surprise, reaction, and panic. Grabbing the closest object he could grab within reach and quickly charges into the living room/ dining room area to find Benny Frank and Elizabeth – Jefferson's sister- squealing about something that came in the mail. Placing the vase he picked up down on the dining room table, he walks over to the two squealing girls and tried to get their attention.
"Jefferson! Jefferson honey!" Benny squealed. "Guess what came!"
"What came?" Jefferson asks Elizabeth.
"The Letter it came early!" Elizabeth squealed has she hugged her brother tightly. "Open-it! Open-it! Open-it!"
"Okay sis, geez it sounds like you're being accepted into Beacon instead of me." Jefferson said has he was opening the envelope.
He read it aloud, "Dear Jefferson 'Davis' Bragr,
You have been accepted into the Beacon Academy for Hunters and Huntresses. The reason why you have been accepted into the Academy is that you hold individualism within at a much higher degree that most Hunters or Huntresses at your age or skill level. In addition to this, you show a much higher level of concentration –based on your teacher's accounts- in battle and when maintaining equipment or writing accounts of battles. Your fighting style has been noticed among the staff of the Academy to such a degree that over half the staff has been arguing over who would train you in their respective subjects such as Tactics, Weapon Design, Aura training, and Grimm autonomy and psychology. These are not limited to Aura Combat, Leadership, Special Operation combat/Training, Strength Training, Vehicle Operation/Design, and Faunus related classes (Combat, Leading Faunus Teams, and/or Faunus training due to your possible Bear Faunus heritage.) Your Health and Accommodations will be discussed when you arrive, we –The staff of Beacon- are hoping that you come in a timely fashion before the admission date of April 6, 2014 so that the staff can come to know you and help you make a smoother transition into Beacon. This year a permanent change has been made to the dress code in regards to Facial hair, because –as your mentor has written about your culture- that the males of your culture prefers as a whole to have large amounts of facial in the form of long breads or beards of various styles. We hope this helps your transition to life at Beacon, more can be discussed when you arrive.
Sincerely, Ozpin and the staff of Beacon.
P.S. Professor Port would like to hear some of your stories when fighting the Monsters of Grimm."
"Well, I know what we are doing this evening." Elizabeth said in her bubbly tone.
"Yes, a nice celebration." Jefferson said, "Based on the letter, they want us to come quickly. It is January 2th, correct?"
"Yes Jefferson," Benny said in her soft voice, "If you leave tomorrow and follow the currents to the south, you two should reach Vale in a month's time or even less. Given the weather stays calm and no hurricanes appear, to bad Stein cannot be here to hear the news."
"What is with the 'You two' thing?" Elizabeth asked, her emerald blind eyes looking at the relative location of Jefferson and Benny.
"Elizabeth, you are going with Jefferson to Beacon," Benny said, "I think he wants to take you down south with him. You are heading to Beacon with him."
Elizabeth's expression changed, she shacked with excitement and lunged at Jefferson, hugging him. Elizabeth started to tire up. Holding her, Jefferson rubs her back.
That evening in the town of Hope, there was a festival held in Jefferson's honor for his achievement. During the festival, Jefferson walked out to the docks. Sitting down at the edge of the pier, Jefferson looks south and prays.
"So, my future is in a faraway land." Jefferson prayed, "God, please guide me. Not only reaching the place known as Beacon, but bring your word lord to the lost there. I ask to help me gain the needed courage and bravery to take the leap. Lord, please watch over my teacher Stein. Something has happened to him Lord and I ask that he be brought back to safety and to the church. Lord I thank you for all I have been given and thank you for having such a loving sister be in my house hold lord. Amen."
Rising to leave, Jefferson doesn't know what the future holds. But his Teacher Stein is in his own adventure. To the south and along the uninhabited coast of the Vale kingdom in the mountainous portion of the Black Forest, a stone wall explodes outward over a cliff. Come running out are several prisoners of a underground concentration camp, the cliff had a trail leading down to the shore of the ocean and prisoners all ran down the trail. Behind the escapees were two men, each firing assault rifles back into the prison they freed themselves from.
"Lee, get out of here!" Stein shouted, "I have lived my life to its fullest."
"Not a chance!" Lee shouted back. "We stick together!"
Mowing down several more guards, Lee and Stein make their way down the path. But it a portion crumbles away, preventing Lee and Stein from getting to the shore that way. Hearing the guards come out of the damaged wall. Looking down the cliff, it's fall sloped slightly; enough for someone or some two to slide down it.
Jumping over the edge, Lee and Stein slide down the cliff side and leaped into a Long-Boat that all the escapees had prepped as Lee and Stein fought the guards. Lifting up a triangle sail, The Long Boat made a beeline for open water. From the cliff side opened up a massive pair of Bay doors, what seemed to be an armed Airship. Banking hard Starboard, Stein pulls a lever near the Helm. From below deck came several cannons, each primed and ready with a shell in the firing chamber. Pulling a second lever, the cannons fired a salvo at the Airship. The result was that the Airship's command house and radar station was damaged.
Taking the alarms as their queue, The Long-Boat disappears in the white chaps and foam of the sea.
