Summary/disclaimer: Time for another chapter of the Spartan and the Legionary. Enjoy the 1500-word chapter. I don't own RWBY or Halo. Monty Oum, Microsoft, 343 and Rooster Teeth do.
Pyrrha, Jaune, and Ruby escorted Leo towards Ozpin's office. Despite what Weiss, Ren, and Blake thought? Leo was very vocal.
"So, 4-time champion?" Leo questioned while he crossed his arms. "That's unique." Leo said and fell silent.
Leo watched Pyrrha fall silent, not expecting him to brush off the idea so casually. She said nothing as Glynda met them at the elevator.
"And who is this?" Glynda asked, her eyes narrowing which caused Leo to hum.
'She's like chief Mendez.' Leo thought to himself as he went to speak up. Pyrrha beat him by a second.
"He's from Atlas." Pyrrha put in as Leo turned to the spartan girl. "General Ironwood sent him to talk to professor Ozpin." Pyrrha said which got a nod from Leo.
"Yeah, I was supposed to come with Specialist Schnee," Leo stated while putting his arms on his hips. "She wanted to report to General Ironwood." Leo said and looked directly at the woman.
She didn't flinch, Leo almost wondered if the woman was with the military. She had the demeanor of an officer rather than a teacher.
"Ms. Nikos, Ms. Rose, and Mr. Arc? Come with me and your friend." Glynda stated, casting a glare at Leo which made him shake his head.
He stepped into the elevator with the quartet. Leo could feel Glynda glaring at him while he rolled his eyes. Leo shook his head at the moment.
Leo leaned on the elevator wall. One advantage his MJOLNIR GEN-2 armor gifted him? Nobody could see his face or gage his emotions. There were only a few people that could read him with his armor on.
"I haven't seen anything like you from Atlas…" Glynda said which got Leo to shake his head.
"Long story, ask General Ironwood." Leo said as the elevator continued to rise. "Surprised to see so many warriors in Vale." Leo said while Pyrrha turned to him.
He looked at the spartan girl with interest. She was the only one out of the group besides Jaune who seemed dressed for combat… And her attire was almost a dead ringer for how Spartans in ancient times dressed.
And considering he had seen weapons on the others? Leo doubted they were normal either.
The doors slid open and Leo stepped out flanked by the others. He hummed and looked around with interest.
He saw gears similar to old fashioned clocks all over the room, even the floor spun like it was keeping track of something… The man who stood behind the desk tapped his cane gently, analyzing him like another spartan would.
"Professor Ozpin, I found someone who wants to speak to you." Glynda said as Leo stepped forward.
"My, don't you look interesting." Ozpin said while Leo hummed as he turned to Glynda. "Ms. Goodwitch, why don't you escort General Ironwood here when he arrives?" Ozpin asked as Glynda turned and left.
Ozpin said nothing until Glynda was out of earshot before standing up.
"You are not of this world, are you?" Ozpin questioned, making Jaune, Ruby, and Pyrrha raise eyebrows.
"I'd ask how someone knows that… But everyone can tell this armor isn't from Atlas." Leo said which made the trio blink in shock.
"WHA…?!" Ruby said as Pyrrha and Jaune blinked.
"Ms. Rose, I would have assumed you would have figured that out…. Not even Atlas could develop armor and weapons like that." Ozpin said while slowly rising to his feet. "But that begs the question of where you hail from." Ozpin said as Leo crossed his arms.
Pyrrha looked interested, Jaune looked shocked that someone from this reality existed here. It made him hum as he raised an eyebrow at the knight.
"Not from this reality unless you know what the covenant and the Halo rings are." Leo said which got a shake of the head from the others. "Then no…. This is the same reaction I got from General Ironwood, only they pointed guns at me…" Leo said while he cracked his knuckles.
"That would be James." Ozpin said as Pyrrha turned to Leo.
"So, you're a soldier from another reality?" Pyrrha questioned which got a hum from Leo.
"Supersoldier, but technically yes." Leo said and brushed off his armor. "And before you think I'm here to stab everyone and ask to be king of Remnant or something? Where I come from? People like me fight on Humanity's frontlines against monsters." Leo said and looked at Pyrrha and Jaune.
"So, uh… Supersoldier that doesn't live here…." Jaune said while Leo shrugged. "Didn't expect to find that out." Jaune put in as Leo crossed his arms.
"Relax, I'm not going to fight you." Leo said and turned to Ozpin. "Why ask if I'm not around here if you knew? I thought everyone knew." Leo stated and leaned on the wall.
"This is… Unique." Pyrrha said to which Leo closed his eyes.
"This place is as unique to me as it is to you." Leo said and turned to Ozpin. "I don't have any work to do at the moment. So, I'll answer any questions." Leo said as Ruby darted up to the hulking spartan.
"WHO MAKES YOUR ARMOR!? HOW DOES IT WORK!?" Leo heard from Ruby which got a raised eyebrow.
"One? The UNSC material's group." Leo said while he turned to Pyrrha. "2? Soldiers like me? Spartans? People dressed like you is what we're based off." Leo said which caused Ozpin to tap his cane on the ground.
"Interesting… And these 'Spartans' are some of humanities best warriors?" Ozpin questioned which got Leo to nod.
"The ones we're based off of?" Leo questioned with a raised eyebrow at the moment. "Or us as a group? Your students seem to know a lot about fighting." Leo stated which Ozpin chuckled at.
"Spartans like me?" Pyrrha asked which Leo shrugged at.
"I don't know much about you." Leo said, rubbing at his arms. "But I'll start with the history lesson another time. Spartans are elite super soldiers back home. I don't know if Atlas or Vale has something like that." Leo said which got Pyrrha to look away.
"Unless you consider Huntsmen and Huntresses to be on par with these Spartans." Leo said as Ruby drew her scythe.
"Well, I wouldn't call them normal if she's one of them." Leo said, turning to Ruby. "Your all taking this a LOT better than I assumed." Leo said as Ruby leaned her scythe on her shoulder.
"We have a lot weirder stuff." Ruby added while Leo nodded.
"I also heard from General Ironwood a day ago on your travels here." Ozpin said which got Leo to nod. "Ms. Rose, Ms. Nikos, Mr. Arc? Mr. Cerule is no enemy of ours. Though from what I've heard? You are not familiar with the Grimm, are you?" Ozpin asked, he watched Leo shake his head.
"Then we should introduce you to this world." Ozpin said and rose from his seat. "Mr. Rose and Mr. Arc? Since both of your teams are still in training? And Ms. Rose rather enjoys combat? How would both of your teams like to get some training. It is the easiest way to get accustomed to someone." Ozpin stated as Ruby bounced around the room.
"OH… I GET TO SEE HOW HIS WEAPONS WORK!" Ruby said which made Leo chuckle with amusement.
"This is going to be a very odd day, isn't it?" Leo asked as Ozpin hummed.
"Your find this world is full of oddities, Mr. Cerule." Ozpin said and stood to his feet. "And since you are one of humanity's guardians? Perhaps it would be prudent to introduce both our generations to the other." Ozpin added as Leo shrugged.
"If their ok with fighting…" Leo said while he cracked his neck. "Your going to have to show me what a 'Grimm is, though. I haven't fought one yet." Leo said as Ozpin chuckled.
"And we haven't fought alongside a 'spartan'." Pyrrha said as she turned to Ozpin. "We're be happy to handle an assignment, professor Ozpin said as Leo looked at Pyrrha.
"Well, I have a feeling that this is going to be pretty interesting." Leo said before turning and leaving to the side.
"Indeed, Mr. Cerule." Ozpin replied as he took his seat. "Indeed…. Now, do come back alive… I'm sure we will all have many questions by then." Ozpin said and tapped his cane upon the ground.
He looked forward to the end of the mission.
