Chapter 7

Zulu 5

As Jacob walks to the infirmary, he walks past a window then he looks outside of the window then sees the Iris Conrad just floating and a new Pelican dropping off the Recon team and Charlie team then he goes back to walking then he reaches the infirmary.

Jacob opens the door to the infirmary then he walks up to the reception desk then tells the receptionist that he has an appointment then the receptionist looks at her computer for a few seconds clicking her mouse then tells Jacob to wait in the waiting room. As Jacob was waiting he sees other people as well, then as names go one by one he gets called next then he follows the nurse to the doctors room then he enters then gets told to sit down on one of the chairs that the nurse offered, and so Jacob sits down. A minute later the doctor enters the room carrying a clip of full of papers then he says something,

"So… Jacob E. Collins right?" Jacob nodded "I'm Doctor Chang, I just want you to answer a few questions, is that fine with you?"

"Yes," Jacob answered "okay so let's first start with this, have you ever done any illegal drugs in the past months? Please answer truthfully," asked Chang "No I haven't,"

Then the medic wrote something on a paper nearby then asked another question, "now onto the second question, have you ever encountered anything unusual when you got transported?" Asked the Chang "Yes I have"

"And that would be?"

"It only happens when I look at my wrist for a certain amount of time then my stats page show up"

"Okay, can you show me?"

"Alright here you go,"

But nothing shows up so Doc. Chang asked where is it

"Umm… Jacob, where is your stat page?" Asked Chang "It's right here can't you see it?"

"No I can't"

"Hmm that's a weird it showed up for the others,"

"Though it is interesting, let's go back to our main topic, have there been any other unusual ones?"

"No there isn't"

"Okay," then he wrote something on a piece of paper then grabbed another piece of paper from the clip then asked "then onto our last question, have you received any prescription/medication from this past month?"

"No I haven't" Jacob answered

"Alright we're set, your free to go Mr. Collins"

"Alright thanks"

Then Jacob exits the infirmary then he heads to the barracks in the Constant. On his way there he then sees some new faces, he saw that they weren't wearing enlisted uniforms and from what the looks of it, they were lost. So Jacob walks up to them, there were five people and from the looks of it they were about the same age to Jacob, but the thing that stood out from them were their bizarre hair and hair colors, one of them has mid-length black hair with a single streak of red hair in their bangs, while another one has short pink spiky hair, another one has long black hair that reaches down to her back, another one also has long hair but it's blonde though she seemed shorter than the rest, and the last one has short green hair, two purple bangs in the front, and with two long red antennae or hairpins, Jacob wasn't sure. Jacob goes up to them and asked them what they were doing,

"Hey! you five what you guys doing?" Yelled Jacob as he is walking down the hallway they all looked over to Jacob then one with the red streak yells back

"We're just looking for the barracks, why you old man?" They yell back

Jacob walks to them he noticed that they seemed shorter as closer he got and also the were shorter than standard soldiers in the PMC or UNSC so Jacob was a bit suspicious of that, then once Jacob reached them he was towering over them just by a few inches he notices that there were 4 females and a single male though from the looks of it the male doesn't seem interested in any of them though that wasn't the main point Jacob was trying to make, but instead something else that was why there were aimlessly looking that the map like they didn't understand a single word so Jacob asked,

"Do you guys know how to read that map?" Jacob asked

"No we don't sir," the blonde said quietly

"I see," then the blonde girl flinches for a second, Jacob notices it but the others don't so he won't ask

"Anyways do you guys need help?"

"Yes we do, so could you help us," said the one with long black hair

"Yeah sure, what are you guys looking for?" Asked Jacob

"We are looking for the barracks" said the one with pink hair

"Oh the barracks? I was just heading there as well," said Jacob

"Oh! So can we follow you to the barracks?" Said the green haired girl

"Sure I guess, I mean I don't have anyone to talk to so sure,"

Then they followed Jacob to the barracks but at the midway point one of them remembered something

"Oh I just remembered something!" Said the pink haired dude then they all stopped to look at him

"We almost forgot to introduce ourselves, remember!" Jacob almost forgot as well because he was so focused on what to do that evening

"Anyways, I'm Natsu!" As he puts his fist to his chest

"Oh, I'm Ryuko Matoi," she puts her hand up to do a small wave then puts it back in her pockets

"Nice to meet you, I am Jung E. Young pleasure to meet you as well" she does a small bow with her head

"I'm next, oh.. uhh… I don't have a name" said the girl in blonde

"What! You don't have a name!" Natsu said angeredly, the blonde girl was scared then "I'm going to find your Mom or Dad and explain why they didn' give you a name" then the blonde girl looked shocked that he wasn't mad at her then she said,

"Actually I was taken in by a church in my town and I was little also I don't really remember my mom or dad,"

"Oh, I see then," Natsu looked a bit worried but then the green haired girl spoke up,

"Okay enough with the sad stuff we don't want to cry here in front of this person do we? Anyways my name is Mira Yurizaki, nice to meet you," Jacob just stared at Mira for a few seconds then snaps out from it then Jacob re-composed himself then Jacob took a deep breath then finally introduces himself,

"I'm Jacob Collins, pleased to meet you all"

Then they all looked at each other nodded, then that all said in sync,

"PLEASED TO MEET YOU CAPTAIN!" They all bow down from the waist up, Jacob was confused as hell, from the looks of it he was assigned as a squad leader when he didn't do any sorts of leadership classes or anything of that sort so he told them to be at ease then they stopped bowing.

"You know, I thought you'd be a bit scarier when I first heard about you, but you're actually nice," said E. Young

"You know I thought he'd look stronger, but in reality you look like a normal person," Nastu said disappointingly

"Well all looks can be deceiving, but you can just keep those thoughts in your mind and you'll see," said Jacob

As they all walked to the barracks then Jacob asked where their stuff was, like any extras they brought with them they said it was in the room in their lockers. So then Jacob said that they can hang out in the barracks as long they don't make too much noise as he goes to talk with his superiors,

"Alright we're here, you guys can relax here for a bit," Jacob said

"Alright! Now I can finally lay down and relax!" Nastu said excited

"Finally! Damn that walk tired the hell out of me," said Matoi exhaustedly

"Wow, that was a longer walk than I expected, anyway Jacob before you go do you know where the bathrooms are and or Showers?" Asked E. Young

"Oh the bathrooms and showers, yeah I know where they are, here follow me," E. Young followed him into the hallway then he pointed out to the left "the bathrooms are straight down while the shower rooms are further down if that helps,"

"Thanks," then she headed down the hallway then entered the bathrooms. Then Jacob entered his barrack room set up the commutation device (aka his phone) then he called one of his main supervisors

BRRT* *BRRT* *BRRT*

"Hello? Who is this?" Said the receptionist

"Hello, This is First Grade Major Jacob Collins, I'm calling for Colonel Anderson,"

"Okay, what is the purpose of this call?" Asked the receptionist

"It's about five soldiers that I didn't put under my command,"

"Okay, I'll patch you right through then,"

A few seconds pass by then

"Jacob! How've you been?"

"I've been alright, but that's not why I've called for" Jacob said annoyed

"Alright, alright, but I know why you called me though, it's about those five people isn't it?"

"Yes it is, and why do you assign me five units without my permission and did you tell my squad leader about this as well?!"

"Why is because you need to learn on how to take better care of your squad mates and also I got permission from your sister also the another thing is that yes, I did tell your squad leader that you are going to go off on your own and taking care of your own squad, he was hesitant but agreed nonetheless,"

"Well shit, was this the thing you wanted to talk about before I got my ass teleported?"

"Yes actually, but since like you said you got teleported to another world,"

Jacob was trying to keep his cool because the others are outside the barracks so he his voice to a minimum

"Okay, so can you send the files of each one if you do have them?"

"Already did, you should be able to see them on your phone, yes?"

Then Jacob checks his mail then there they were each file in a single email

"Okay thanks I guess, anyways i'll be going now, anyways see ya,"

"Yeah see—" Jacob hang up before he finished his sentence

Jacob looked at the files, each one different from the other, the first one was Natsu.

His real name is Natsu Dragneel from what look like on the file he was cared by a dragon when he was young then the dragon left him all by himself, and what was left was single scarf woven of dragon scales supposedly, another thing that the files says is that he's reckless most of the time but what makes up or that he's really good at is fire magic especially fire dragon magic or what its called, another thing as well is that he's a little carefree, so he doesn't really care about his surrounding as much when he's doing the attacking and so he leaves destruction behind him; another thing that the file points out that he really cares about people that are close to him, family or not and in some case he even pitied some of his former enemies regardless of they did but that was only some cases.

The second case file is Ryuko Matoi, her real name is Sōichiō Kiryūin but goes by the name of Ryuko Matoi, reasons is because that she was experimented on by her mother and father to be a life fiber human hybrid, to see what life fibers are they are and this is a quick rundown from the file, they are a sentient parasitic organisms that are from space.

Ryuko's personality is somewhat of a mixed bag of sorts. On one hand she can be stubborn and fierce while on the other she can be mature and calm so it's hard to pinpoint a certain personality. She also has some fighting capabilities but her fighting style was a bit crude and too many movements so we've trained her to the best of our abilities and was able to hit second place behind Natsu.

Ryuko is a great fighter making her an asset, also another thing is that she can find a great escape route to get out of a sticky situation that in which also makes her a great asset, another thing that may relate to her fighting is her life fiber infusion since usually a normal person wouldn't be able to stop a car driving 55MPH/88KPH straight at them and not receive any fatal injuries only minor then those minor injuries would heal in almost instant so she is basically an immortal soldier but we will treat her like a human and not a weapon. Or says the file

Now onto the third file is Jung E. Young, the file doesn't have much conclusive info on her but the file does have some obvious ones like including her personality, rank, affiliations, and some of her background history. First up was E. Young's known personality. She is a serious, prudent; a strong sense of responsibility and is tenderhearted. E. Young was affiliated with Goddess Kiss, she was a 1st lieutenant, which is part of R.E.A.P. In which they were able to stop a drug or chemical(we aren't sure or we were not able to get a sample or see it) called 'Obendiance' in which if people were to inhale or consume it they would become zombie like having no free will and is very aggressive toward anything (a.e. Animals, objects maybe, and humans) but once they defeated the leader that was controlling the obedience and producing it.

Next on the file was what she used for combat. E. Young piloted a giant mecha called 'Justice' and it stood tall as a 10 story tall building carrying what it was believed was a 50x170mm chain gun that carries ~85 rounds though since she is out of service from goddess kiss she can no longer use it.

She left REAP to start up an orphanage on her own but after the first few years it was successful then a hot summer came then something started a fire in the orphanage. The fire engulfed the entire building but once the damage was done she didn't have enough money to fully rebuild the entire building but was able to get help from her former colleagues from goddess kiss. They helped rebuild the orphanage back up before winter hit.

In one incident, E. Young was starting to feel that something was off in the orphanage and that there were more and more children getting sick then dying, then one fateful night she gathered up the remaining children that were not sick in one room then multiple men in suits came through the front door then the two were shot and fatally killed while the others hid behind the walls next to the door then E. Young escorted the children out of the orphanage into a nearby REAP base. Then information on her during that time stopped. Then the file states that 2 years later she reappeared in the front of our offices and asked us to make her enlist. We don't know why, but we accepted her offer nonetheless.

The Fourth file was confusing because they have almost no info on her all that file says is that she is a young female priestess with long blonde hair, blue eyes, no known affiliation, and that she has a shy and kind personality and that's all the file says though Jacob thinks there has to be more he keeps looking and that was it nothing more or nothing less.

The next file was Mira Yurizaki's file. It was heavily classified to begin with. All that was that it just showed her personality, ability's, and name. Her background information was mostly classified but because of the calcifications Jacob has, it was mostly black same with anything relating to her background. Mira is a young slim girl who has been believed to have abnormal superhuman strength and the possibility to leap from place to place. One of Mira's greatest strengths is technology. She can hack almost anything making her a great asset to anything technology related but her main weakness is that she is nativë, and too emotional at times but since the file started talking about personality they go to the personality section.

Mira's personality has a peppy, kind, and emotional personality though at times she can be blunt. She is loyal to the people she follows as well given enough time and well developed trust. Though she is confident in her abilities, like technology she won't use it or someone greed or desires but instead use it for the 'good'. Though as much as the file goes it gets more and more harder to find info until there's no more information left. It seems like she is a very important person to have that much classified information on her.

As Jacob finished reading all of the information given to him he sits there thinking about how the hell was he given these specific people. Then there's a knock on his door *THUNK* *THUNK* so Jacob yelled who was it,

"Who is it?!"

"It's me umm… the… person with no name"

It was the 4th file girl, the one with no info so Jacob told her that she can come in. The girl stood there with the uniform that she was given to her by the PMC tailors. She opened her mouth as she was going to say something but she then closed her mouth, canceling it. Then Jacob said,

"Look if you are here to say something say it, if not then your wasting our time here," then the girl took a deep breath then muttered,

"M-0My n-name is Alice but I don't have a last name"

Jacob stared at her for a while trying to process that information then going back to his phone looking for the 4th file found it, looked at it, looked back to Alice, then looked back at the file, and for the last time looked back at Alice. The description matched up but since the files don't have photos Jacob has to base it off the info he was given so Jacob asked Alice something,

"Why didn't you give us your name when we were introducing ourselves?"

"I don't know why I didn't either," she said disappointedly then "but I did tell everyone when you went to your room though!" she said excitedly

"Well it's good that you told everyone your name, but I'm pretty sure Natsu was pretty upset even though for some reason I couldn't hear him?" Jacob questioned

"Oh! That was because when we were walking here I told him my name so he wouldn't get angry when I actually told my name," Alice said back

As Jacob and Alice were talking to each other an alarm went off sending everyone in a panic so Jacob grabbed Alice by instinct then opened the door and saw the others near the door then Jacob yelled at them to get away from the door and grab their stuff and so they did Alice as well just in time E. Young just came through the door in panic and asked what everyone what they were doing,

"What just happened? And why are you all grabbing your stuff?"

"I don't know but we'll see what it is soon so get in your battle uniforms you were given!" Jacob yelled

"Yes sir!" E. Young answered back

They all got in their battle uniforms though they might not have the same one that Jacob has, which is a mjolnir II Armor with a Olive finish with a mjolnir Mk.V[B] helmet with Kevlar chest piece covered by the heavy metal armor with the arm cover same with the wrist.

Talking about armor most soldiers in the PMC have some sort of device on their wrist but each wrist is different, on the left is a for multiple uses like a folding device, extendable blade and so on, but most of the time on their right wrist is a reversed engineered Jackal Plasma shield. For movement jump jets on the back waist with suspenders is for faster movement and reach hard to get to places then lastly a small exo-suit for said jump-jets and the 'energy' shielding that protects the user.

While the others have their own custom made battle suits and armor each one was different, for example Natsu's battlesuit has 'no' sleeves. They are made out of almost the same materials that of a normal battle suit but they are see-through and have almost the same effect as any normal ones but another thing is that Natsu doesn't have much armor like Jacob's. It only covers some of his chest and some parts of his legs but that's about it.

Ryuko has a battle suit that covers all of her body and has the same color palette and armor design as her previous uniform before she joined but this time it's not sentient though she still remembers it whenever she wears it. Another thing aswell is that it also increases her main battle performance by 150%. Same with Natsu's.

E. Young's battlesuit has no extra added amour like steel or heavy Kevlar, it's only just the battle suit and light Kevlar armor covering her chest and legs reason being is because she's been issued a smaller scaled 'justice' just being about 7 meters since the original model was too large and to impractical for urban combat also she carries a M6L 2569 model in her pistol holster. But when the mecha is not needed she would wear the same like Ryuko's increasing her mobility and overall combat efficiency as well as having a smaller exo-suit that only has an energy shield.

Alice's battlesuit covers her entire body just like the other two girls as well, but the difference is that she has some sort of priest look to it. White with some blue and gold outlining though it may stand out it seems from testing from people at HQ they somehow made it increase magic power from integrating a magi core from a monster from a different universe. So her healing abilities from what she said to Jacob during the conversation, stronger supposedly but wasn't sure because maybe it will not work because of limitations in her universe but they'll get to that road when needed.

Lastly Mira's battle suit is the same as the other girls but it's more similar to E. Young where it's situational because if they said the enemy don't have high tech technology she's almost completely useless for combat but with her supposed superhuman capability she could be used to scout.

The six of them have their battle gear on ready to go outside when a large crashed happened rocking the ship for a bit,

"The heck was that?!" Natsu exclaimed

"Hell if I know! How are we supposed to know?!" yelled Ryuko

"Calm down you guys, it's probably nothing too bad right?" Said Alice

"No it's bad, that crash was nearby maybe down a few halls down," Jacob replied back

Now everyone is shooken from Jacobs words so they prepared for the worst.
