After a few awed moments of staring at Gigan, Mosura turned back to Ironwood "What do you plan to do with him?"

"Project Titan revolves around his resurrection" Ironwood explained, "Once we are finished, our plan is to awaken him and use him as our main line of defense against the larger sized Grimm as well as massive Grimm hordes that would before require an army to destroy."

Mosura narrowed her eyes; something in the way the general explained that didn't sit right with her "So, you plan to use him as your puppet?" she asked, her voice becoming dangerously calm.

"Whatever creature you knew him as was dead. We are simply giving him a new life." Ironwood calmly explained. Mosura's eyes began to glow blue as she stepped forward, but Ozpin stepped in between the two before anything else could happen "Excuse me, can we talk for a second?"

Ozpin led her away into the storage room nearby "I know you may have some concerns…"

"Concerns?!" Mosura snapped, "CONCERNS?! Gigan was my friend before he was wounded. I put him in the ice because I cared about him, as I care about all the other Titans who are still loyal to the King. If they want to fix him up with some robotic parts, then that's fine, but I will NOT stand for him to be their slave! I just recently woke out of my hibernation and I'm still trying to figure out how my world has changed. So far, I haven't seen anything very appealing, so sorry if I'm a little on edge right now."

Mosura turned away and sniffled a bit. Ozpin, feeling sympathetic towards her, sighed and put a comforting hand on her shoulder "I understand your pain. It's true, this world isn't what it was, but that's why it needs people like us. It's our duty to inform and prepare them for the world and its challenges. Ironwood, unfortunately, doesn't quite understand your kind like I do, and I'll be sure to discuss this with him. Maybe we can get this issue with Gigan sorted out."

Mosura looked at Ozpin, a few tears were in her eyes, but she managed a nod "Thank you."

Ozpin smiled back and nodded "Now, you said the enemy was stirring. We should probably begin waking up the other guardians then?"

Mosura nodded "Yes, but it will take time; the guardians are spread out all over Remnant and only I know where they are."

"What if we split up then?" Ozpin offered, "If you mark the locations, I know of some Huntsmen teams who might be willing to help."

Mosura thought for a moment, but then nodded "That might work."

"Excellent"

"I'm going to need a map to mark the locations."

"I can make that happen."

With the plan made, the two went to go inform Ironwood and the others still outside.

"Are you sure that your team can handle the task?" Mosura asked.

"They are younger" Ozpin admitted, "but they have potential. I can assure you, when they put their mind to something, they'll get it done."

…

A short while later, the group was facing a holographic map in Ironwood's office. Once they were filled in on this new plan, Ironwood immediately led everyone back to his office and pulled up a holographic map of Remnant.

"Alright" he then said to Mosura, "where are they?"

Mosura walked up and pointed to a few places around Vacuo: "You'll find two here." Then, pointing to an area around Mistral, "One is here." Then, pointing at Menagerie, "Obviously, Kong and myself are here, as well as the third guardian. There are two others in the oceans, but they're most likely awake by this time, so they'll probably find us before we find them."

"Fantasitc…" Harriet sarcastically remarked.

"There's only one problem" Mosura added, "Many of the guardians are acting as watchmen for the different prisons containing the enemy's followers. You will need to be careful what Titan you try to awaken."

"Where will you go?" Ironwood asked.

"I will go with Ozpin to Vale and help the Huntsmen teams there. After that I plan to return to Menagerie to find Kong and awaken the third guardian."

"I can go to Menagerie" Kali offered, "It was because of Kong that I survived the Skullcai's attack; it's possible he still remembers me."

Mosura nodded: "Possibly. And what about you, General?"

"I'll have the Ace Ops search for the ones around Atlas. However, that only leaves Mistral untouched." Ironwood replied.

"I think it's best we get that one last" Mosura advised, "Let's just say the one hidden there is a bit of a hothead. I'll get him once I'm finished in Vale."

Ironwood nodded "Fair enough."

"We will need to have a way to contact you should we find a Titan that might not be so friendly, Mosura." Clover pointed out.

Mosura nodded "I agree."

"You could contact my scroll, if need be" Ozpin offered, "I have a feeling Mosura will be with me for a while."

Ironwood nodded: "Good."

"Well then" Ozpin said, "Now that everyone knows what to do, I suggest we move out as soon as possible; we may not have as much time as we think."

"I agree with Ozpin" Ironwood said, "I'll go with the Ace Ops, but I'll make sure you guys get transports to where you need to go."

"Thank you, James."

Mosura gave Ironwood a pointed glare "You and I are not quite done concerning Gigan, but I'll let it slide for now."

"Fair enough" Ironwood replied, then looked to the others "Alright, everyone, let's move out."

…

Meanwhile, outside of Vale, many students hung around in the courtyard, either studying or spending time with friends, all unaware of a hidden presence watching them. He was a young man with lighter skin but covered in black, insectoid armor covered in spikes. His eyes were blood re and his helmet had a yellow horn jutting forward from the center. He currently hid in the shadows, looking at the different students. After a few moments, his gaze stopped at a blonde girl with weaponized gauntlets. She was hanging around with her team, but the figure could sense everything about her, including her semblance…and he couldn't have found a more suitable candidate.

The figure reached out with his telepathy "Master." He said.

There were a few moments before a deep and sinister voice echoed in his head "This better be good, Battra."

"Relax, boss" Battra chuckled, "I just so happen to have found something of possible interest to you…or rather, someone."

The voice then asked "How strong?"

"The strongest I've seen" Battra replied, "And if I'm sensing this right, she can get stronger as well."

There were a few more moments of silence before the voice echoed one last time

"Finally, no one can stop me now…"

Battra evilly chuckled in response "I couldn't agree more."
