Chapter 1: Menagerie under attack.
At the most southern-east of remnant, there is a island by the name of Menagerie, where is the "capital" of the faunus, which is the most faunus populated "settlement" outside of America, this island was supposed to be a gift for the faunus after the great war, with a little part of them saying that it was fair, but big part of the population knew what this was. The faunus are the trash and menagerie are your weir.
But over time the island became a place were every faunus could live in peace, without racisms of the humans, without being judge by their appearance, because even when "equality with the faunus" was granted, this "equality" various between kingdoms, with Atlas being the worst in this, Vacuo the best and Mistral and Vale in the middle. But even the faunus of the kingdoms where getting tired of all the discrimination and racism, so they found it The White Fang, that at the beginning was just a pacifist administration that will tried to bring equality.
But after the first leader stepdown and a new one takes his place, in just 1 year the organization and tactics of the original white fang change drastically, from peaceful protest to coordinated attacks to any shop or company that mistreat the faunus and it was working, but it was bringing equality from fear, but what they don't know are the consequences that will bring, from fear comes hatred and from hatred comes revenge.
During that 1 year, the white fang has angered the only man that can do harm to any faunus and get away with it, Jacques Schnee, to which he was furious that he contract a mercenary group to attack the fang HQ in Menagerie and that they are allowed to take anything they want, to which the accepted without a second thought, but what they don't know is that after the fang started with this new tactics the ex-leader of the white fang, Ghira Belladonna, now mayor (or chieftain?) of menagerie immediate demands to the new leader, Sienna Khan, that she has to leave the island, but she refused. Ghira didn't what to end this in a fight, so for a week there were talks with each other, until they reach to a conclusion.
The deal between the 2 of them, was that Sienna and everyone that wants to join the white fang will live the island and that she will left a recruitment center with 20 people here, and Ghira allowed and said that to anyone that wants to join the fang he or anyone from the island won't stop them in any way possible and in just 1 year just over a million people has live the island including the mayor's daughter, Blake Belladonna.
And because this kind of news doesn't reach to the public of other kingdoms, they don't know that they are going to unleash one of the biggest massacres since Mountain Glenn and what this mercenary group it's about to do it's just started the awakening of a sleeping giant.
30 minutes before the attack
In the mayor's house, where Ghira is working with paperwork, to which he is getting very stress about it. With his wife, Kali Belladonna helping him every now and them, to which she is bringing a set of tea for him so he can rest a little with her, but before that there was a knock in the door, to which kali pause and put the tray in a nearby table and go to answer the door.
After she opens the door and she is meet with a man around mid 30's, with a height of little more of 1.70cm, brown hair tied in a pony tail, black eyes, with 2 fox ears in his head and dress with the menagerie guard armor.
"Oh Joshua, did you need something?" asks Kali kindly.
"Nothing ma'am, I just want report something with the chief, if he isn't busy of course" said Joshua, adding the last part.
"I'm sure that my husband doesn't have any problem with it, come in" said kali, stepping a little, to let him pass.
"Thank you, ma'am" said Joshua stepping in.
After taking the tray, both started to walk to Ghira's office, to which arrive in a couple of minutes. After reaching to the door's office, Kali knock and they hear a "come in" to which they enter.
"Hi honey" "Sir" said Kali and Joshua.
"Hello darling, Joshua" said Ghira.
"I bring you tea so you can rest a little with me" said Kali.
"Excellent, could you prepare the cups, I'm going to first talk with Joshua before I rest" said Ghira.
Kali nodded with a small smile, and she go to put the stray in the table, meanwhile, Ghira and Joshua step outside of the office to talk.
"What do you want to report, Joshua?" ask Ghira.
"Nothing major, sir, just one of the patrols is incomplete" said Joshua.
"What patrol?" ask Ghira.
"Silva's patrol, sir" said Joshua.
"What happen to his partner?" ask Ghira.
"He is sick, sir, the local doctor came during the afternoon and said that he has fever and vomit, so the doctor gave him a couple of days to rest" inform Joshua.
"And had you find a temporally replacement? Ask Ghira.
Joshua shook his head, "Nobody sir, but if you don't mind, I would like to be the replacement, sir"
"Why?" ask Ghira.
"Silva is an old friend of mine, and beside standing as a guard in front of your house almost all day without doing something is boring" said Joshua, with a little grin.
Ghira chuckle a little. "Alright, if you don't mine, then you can do it" said Ghira.
"thank you, sir" said Joshua.
After that Joshua leaves the mayor's house and starts to walk to his friend house.
15 minutes before the attack
After 10 minutes of walking, Joshua arrive. He climbs the little stairs and knocks on the door and a minute later, his friend comes out.
He is male, around almost 40's around the same height 1.70cm with blonde hair, brown eyes, with a pair of eagle wings, do the left wing have cuts and a few bruises and dress with the menagerie guard armor.
"Hello Joshua" said Silva, extending his hand.
"Hey Michael" replied Joshua, taking his hand with a hug and a few taps in the back.
"So, what are doing here, you know that I have to patrol the area now" said Michael.
"I know, that's why I'm here, I'm your temporally partner" said Joshua, surprising Michael.
"What happen to my partner?" ask Michael, a little worried.
"He is ok, he just got sick, the doctor came to tell me that he has fever and vomit, so he is going to be out for a few days" said Joshua, calming Michael.
Michael sighed in relief. "Well that's good" said Michael.
"So, let's get started" said Joshua
Before their patrol started, Michael close his door with key, after that both started to walk in the streets and their patrol begin.
8 minutes before the attack
There have been in patrol for a few minutes and everything is calm, Joshua starts to see if there's somebody near them, he doesn't' see or sense, so he starts talking with Michael.
"So, any important news from America?" ask Joshua.
"Just one, the president and the congress have declared that the use of orbital bombardment, super-heavy railgun cannon and the few nuclear weapons can't be use near ANY settlement, no matter what and IF they are use, it's needed authorization of the president and the secretary of defense" said Michael.
"Well that's a relief, any other news?" said Joshua.
"Just the normal news, but nothing important" said Michael.
"And any news from the higher ups?" ask Joshua.
"From what they said to me, that there is going to start the construction of a few outpost in the south of Anima, there are talks about a new modernization of the fleet, but I don't know if is going to happen or not and the battleship class have change their designation to light cruiser, with a new model that's going to replace the OLD Montana class." Said Michael.
"What the Montana class?" ask Joshua.
"From what I know, most of them are going to be costal defense to the big cities and a few of them as museum ships" said Michael.
"It would be cool to be see a Montana class from that close" said Joshua, earning a nod from Michael.
Nobody in Menagerie knows, but Michael and Joshua aren't what they seem to be.
Michael is one of the few CIA agents that are outside of America, there are at least 2 CIA agents in almost every kingdom, except for Atlas, and to any undercover spec ops or military American to get news from military channels. He has a care free personality, but when danger is close, he is deadly as a shark.
Joshua is a sergeant in delta force, he is the "guard" of those CIA agents and because he is in delta force, he is already one of the most experience with CQC, stealth missions, etc. He can fool anyone that is a target, and he is very friendly with anyone, but make no mistake, if you're someone that wants to hurt someone he cares about (family, friends, colleagues), then you are dead.
2 minutes before the attack
After a few minutes of patrol Joshua spots something in one of the alleys, he can easily see 2 figures planting something near a storage, he calls Michael quietly and points to the alley, so they hide.
"What do we do?" ask Michael.
"Let's go to the rooftop and we ambush them by dropping on top of them" said Joshua, which earns a nod from Michael.
Joshua holds on in Michael arms, as he takes him to the roof, ones the 2 of them are in position, Joshua holds he's hand with 3 fingers, meaning they drop in 3, Michael nods. After the 3 fingers are down, they jump on them, making them fall to the ground.
"Let's see who they are" says Michael, which they drag them.
After dragging them to the street, they are surprise to see that they are humans.
"Wait, why are they humans here, the port guards should have warm about humans coming to the island" said Joshua.
"Something isn't right" said Michael, "go to the alley and check if there is anything out of the ordinary".
Joshua nods and goes to the alley, meanwhile Michael inspects the 2 bodies, to which he can easily see that are armed with a pistol and a knife, he also identified a couple of magazines for sub-fusil, but they don't have them in hand.
'they most likely have fall, after we drop on top of them' though Michael.
"MICHAEL¡" screams Joshua.
Michael starts running to see what is in the alley.
"What did you find that you had to scream my name?" ask Michael.
"That" is the only thing that says Joshua and points at, to which Michael follows the finger.
"Dear God" says Michael.
What they see, is a type of bomb with a timer that shows 44 seconds.
Joshua it's about to panic, when Michael stops him.
"Don't panic, we're near the ocean, I can drop the bomb there, you tie these guys with rope or anything that you can find and immediate alert all the guards you can find to start searching these bombs and alert Ghira" orders Michael to Joshua
Joshua nods and starts to do what he was told, at the same time Michael take the bomb and flies as fast he can in direction to the ocean.
'come on, come on, come on, you can do it' though Michael.
After 35 seconds he reaches a safe distance to drop the bomb, after dropping it, he flies back. He turns to see the splash of the explosion, to which he sighed in relief.
But, before he reaches the mainland, he sees multiple explosions all around Kuo Kuana.
'This doesn't make sense, humans from almost all the kingdoms wouldn't do this and Atlas wouldn't attack any faunus settlement unless they were attac…' thought Michael, until he realizes something, to which he facepalms.
"it's so obvious, Jacques Schnee must have sent these attackers after all the trouble that the White Fang has done, to the shipments of his company and I know where the other humans are" said Michael, thinking out loud.
Michael then flies in direction to the White Fang outpost, when he is close enough, he sees that half of the building is on fire and starts to hear what appears to be gunfire, to which is completely silence when he reaches the entrance.
Michael position himself at the side of the door, with his pistol at hand and a knife in the other hand, he counts until he reaches 3 and kicks the door open.
(FBI! OPEN THE DOOR¡, sorry I couldn't help it but imagine that "old" meme, hahaha, ok back to the story¡).
After entering the only thing he could see was chaos, bullet holes in the walls, turn or destroy furniture, a lot of cartridges and a dead body.
"HELLO! IS ANYBODY ALIVE! ANSWER ME!" scream Michael, trying to see and hear someone.
'god dammit! This smoke doesn't let me smell anything!' thought Michael, angry.
After not finding someone alive, he goes out of the building and flies into the air to try to find them, but the only thing he sees are multiple boats going to the horizon.
'dammit! It's suicide if I try to attack' thought Michael.
Then he started to feel something vibrated, he took something out of his pockets, a little object with a rectangular form, he presses a button and a holographic image appears in front of him, he stares at the information and pales.
'NonononNONONO!' thought Michael, he desperate searches if the info is corrupted or a glitch, only to find that is true.
"Dear God" said Michael, with fear and despair in his voice.
In the hologram, it is shown some kind of map and what appears to be a sensor info of that same zone and it shows dozens upon dozens of dots, with more sensors appearing in the hologram with the same information.
(Scorponok, by Steven Jablonsky)
Michael flies as fast as possible to his house, to which he thank his luck wasn't near any of the bombing sides. After arriving he immediate goes down to his basement and opens a panel in the floor, immediate a retinal scanner appears in it, after it scans his eye, a voice speaks to him.
"Codename, name and organization" said the voice.
"Michael Silva, I'm a CIA agent, codename is M1C40EL-S (Michael-s)" said Michael.
"Access granted" said the voice.
"This is an emergency message from CIA agent Michael Silva, Menagerie is under siege by grimm, grimm horde class-3, Menagerie defenders can't hold a horde of this sizes, we need reinforcements immediate, I repeat. This is an" said Michael.
The Pentagon, Washington DC
The Pentagon, one of the most important buildings in America, the building itself busting with activity, but today was different, because of one message, with alarms ringing in all the building.
A man is walking in direction to central command, this man is general Julius Hidalgo, a 50 years old general, veteran of many grimm incursions in Florida and expansions to outer islands, he has black hair with gray at the sides, a scar that passes from his forehead to his right cheek, with his left hand being made of metal.
He enters the central command, to which one of the guards sees him.
"Attention!" said the guard, saluting the general, calling the attention of all the people, to which they salute as well.
"At ease" said Julius.
"Give me a sitrep, immediate" ordered Julius.
"Sir, CIA agent Michael Silva has sent a SOS message, from what it said, is that the Menagerie island is under siege by a grimm horde of class-3 and that the military of the island doesn't have the armament to stop it" said an officer.
"Do we have confirmation?" asked Julius.
"Not yet sir, the satellite will be in position in a couple of seconds" inform an officer.
After that, the main screen lights up showing the continent of Menagerie, the sat then changes to thermic scan and it shows hundred upon hundred of grimm signals in direction to Kuo Kuana.
"Dear God" said one of the technicians, resuming everyone thoughts.
"They need and they need now, contact nearest fleet strike force, tell them to commence operation: Protect Faunus Heaven (PFH), they are authorized to use any type of ammunition except medium railgun artillery support and the incendiary weaponry can be only use outside 5km outside of the forest and not in the city" ordered Julius.
The technicians immediate start to relay the orders to the strike force.
In the middle of the ocean, 423 miles of Menagerie.
In this section of the ocean, is patrolling fleet strike force N°7, with his flagship the light carrier, Ernest D. McWhorter. The admiral of this fleet is Angel Winters, she is a moose faunus with 2 antlers in her head, with long red hair, dress with a white admiral uniform and with 2 pistol/katanas is her hips.
In the bridge of the carrier, admiral Winters is seated talking with central command about the situation.
"Yes general, I understand… yes, I'm mobilizing immediate" said Angel, ending the transmission.
"Communications officer, open a channel to all the fleet" ordered Angel.
"Yes ma'am" said the officer, seconds later he gave her a thump up.
"Ladies and gentlemen, we have a new mission that come from the top, our mission is to assist the people of menagerie in repealing an assault of a class-3 grimm horde, even though we aren't going to reach on time to save all the people, were going to do every thing we can to avenge the fallen, this admiral Winter, out" said Angel, through the communications relay.
"Helmsman, full left rudder, set course to Menagerie, Kuo Kuana" ordered Angel.
"Aye, aye, admiral" said the helmsman.
A fleet of 20 ships goes in direction to Menagerie, the kingdoms don't know what it would bring the future, but with this incident they just change their entire history and they don't even know it.
