Yo welcome to another chapter. Fe things I want to say right now due to the nature of this fic in which North America is here in the strike witches world expect different 'events' to happen. I'm no expert in the SW world lore and stuff, it's hard to find. But I'll make what I do know and research pretty good; to the best of my abilities. Now the war will go on past 45, secret as to the methods but just because America and Canada is here it's not all MERICA and CANADA F yeah! This means the human race won't go owning the Neuroi due to American and Canadian help. enjoy this fic regardless!
The President and mrime minister of America and Canada were meeting in London to meet with the leaders of the European Nations, with the North American leaders were the Mighty Witches as well as Halsey and Nagumo who were to return to active duty immediately, though they were put on standby until the fleet was repaired.
At London president Underwood ordered Admiral Willet to join them in discussion of the Neuroi, as well as that new type Neuroi. President Underwood allowed the 508th and the Admirals as well as Canada's political officials to bored Air Force One. (Don't ask, Air pool XD)
Wow! If American presidents travel like this I'd doubt they'd want any other way of traveling! Cecelia exclaimed as she had her face pressed into the window watching the Atlantic zoom by still amazed by Jet travel.
"I hear ya C! This food is WAYYYYY better then what we got on the Enterprise!" Jaime said as she put her feet up and took a lazy pose.
"Hey Jaime San don't do that! We're guests on this flight so don't get on the Americans bad side." Komura said to the Marine witch.
"What's wrong Jane? You've been quite ever since we left LA?" Shindō asked her CO.
"Huh? Oh just the culture shock of everything." Jane simply said but in truth she was still having a hard time believing what she read about WW2. Hitler was a famous painter in Karlsland, she even had a couple of paintings given to her by the man himself. Now she was wondering VERY hard whether to keep them or burn them out of disgust.
Six some Hours later London:
It was tricky landing AFO, since traditional runways were not long enough to accommodate Jet engines so Britannian engineers had to "jury rig" a make shift run way to accommodate such a fast moving aircraft that puts the experimental 262 too shame.
The leaders of the top allied Nations were all present for the meeting as well as some of their respective military personnel. Churchill, Kaiser Frederick IV, Maria Duchess of Romanga and Emperor Hirohito were there. The Tsar of Orussia was unable to attend the meeting, and Eisenhower was also present as well. The doors opened to reveal the North American leaders, the 508th and Halsey and Nagumo, as well as a women with the rank of Admiral.
"President Underwood and Prime Minister Collin's?" Churchill asked the group and got a nod from the two leaders.
"Shall we get this meeting started? I would like for each of us to say our respective roles and nations we represent to help better our understanding of each other, I'll start." Churchill said.
"I'm Winston Churchill, Prime Minister of Britannia."
"Frederick ze IV, Kaiser of the Empire of Karlsland."
"I'm Maria, Duchess of Romanga."
"Shōwa (AKA Hirohito), Emperor of the Empire of Fuso."
"Dwight David Eisenhower, General and acting commander for all Liberion and Farawayland forces."
'Well this makes things interesting.' The North American leaders thought at the same time.
"Very well, I'm Francis Underwood, President of the United States of America."
"I'm Derek Collin's, Prime Minister of Canada."
"Good, let us begin." Churchill said.
It was almost as grueling as the meeting with the 508th back in LA. The only leader not about to pull their hair out was the Duchess, and only because she was still young and inexperienced on politics.
"And another thing! Our troops in Africa report that you are hiding something as mundane as history to them! What is so bad about your history that you refuse to tell us?!" Churchill said as he puffed out some smoke for his cigar. With the other leaders agreeing with him.
"As we've ordered our forces to say, we say the same, that is currently classified information." President Underwood said with Derek nodding in agreement.
'SLAM' "We are in the middle of a world war and you can't even speak about your history? If you can't share something like that what in ze lords name makes us believe you'd help us in fighting the Neuroi?!" The Kaiser shouted losing his temper.
As this was going on the military personnel that had accompanied the leaders were all just staying quite, though they all agreed with the Kaiser, all except Jane Thach who now knew why their history was kept secret, and she agreed with the decision absolutely.
"Very well then," Underwood said in a calm tone. "You want to know some of our history?" He looks to Churchill, "Britannia in our world is called the United Kingdom or Great Britain, Britannia is used only in song and history. I assume Roosevelt never forced your hand and virtually destroyed your precious empire! (1) Duchess, your country Romagna is known as Italy, only Italy is ONE country it's NOT split between Romagna and Venizia. Hirohito, your Nation is called Japan or Nippon in your language, your more powerful then you should in our world." The president said
"AND WHATS THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN!?" One of the Emperor Hirohito's Guards yelled out. Underwood just ignored him and turned to the Kaiser.
"Karlsland... I must admit, that name does not roll off the tongue, and I'm curious as to how it got that name. In our world your nation is called Germany, or to be more precise Karlsland is was known as the German Empire, but all that being said you should not be Kaiser, the last Kaiser Germany ever had was Wilhelm. As you all already can guess our history is VERY much different then yours and you all would not like it to say the least." Underwood finished saying as he watched some of the shocked and confused faces of his fellow leaders.
"Shall we discuss the more important matter of this war with the Neuroi? We can share history in a school room if we want but right now we need to better organize how we will fight and create a chain of command." The Canadian PM.
"Very well America and Canada will take command over all Liberion and Farawayland forces and witches, as well as place them in the proper branches. We'll also provide military assistance from our own forces as well. Africa is still another month and a half away from being fully supplied and beons able to conduct counter strikes." Underwood said.
"Europe will take at least five months to resupply as well, seeing as the bulk of the armed conflict is being centered on the western front since the Russians are being pushed back, it is giving the Neuroi more breathing room." The PM of Canada said.
"Orussia." Maria said. "Pardon Ma'am?" Derek said. "It's called Orussia." The Duchess corrected him.
"My God, it's just Russia with an O" Underwood nearly laughed.
"Right well, we'll need the cooperation of Fuso in helping us bring supplies in via Vladivostok. If the Neuroi find this out they might launch a counterattack to disrupt the supply flow, also we'll need to go through the Middle East and build the supply chain to bring up through Iran and into southern Orussia." Underwood finished.
"And what of Technology trading?" Maria said.
"If we were to give you research on our modern day weapons it could prove to be very dangerous, at the very best we'd allow you to inspect our military and derive inspiration from them, but for now no we can not simply "give" you our blueprints of our weapons." Derek said
Some of the military personnel were about to voice their disproval until underwood spoke up.
"Actually, some of the head R&D researchers back in America have had theirs eyes on the Striker units the 508th demonstrated for us, what use they have I don't know. But I think we could come to some sort of 'trade' if we were allowed to research Striker tech and possibly better it." Underwood said but in truth he never understood the fascination with Strikers, he thought that the people who made them were all Pedo's but he supposed that they might find a way to use them without the need to forgo leggens.
At Underwoods words the looks of the witches seemed to brighten, then thought of them using something like a jet striker really made their day, but it was soon to be deflated a bit.
"Excuse me sir's and lady's." Trevor Meloney said. Now getting hated looks by the witches and a few other people as well. He was one of many witch haters in the military and the fact he was here sickened them.
"Who are you?" Underwood asked.
"Air Chief Marshal of the RAF Trevor Meloney sir. If we could come to some sort of agreement to technology trading we could not only have a massive advantage over the Neuroi we could greatly reduce casualties of our troops and we could possibly even remove the Witch Corps from the war as well, think about it sir's with your advancement in technology we could destroy the Neuroi and be done with this war by maybe two years tops and suffer less casualties of war." The witch hater said.
"Hold on their! Just because you hate the witches doesn't mean the Americans and Canadians should just accept your words blindly!" Adolfine said getting up off her chair
"And you are?" Derek asked her.
"Sir! Vice Air Marshal Adolfine Galland, I'm the commanding officer of the Witch Corps." She said saluting.
"Adolfine is right sirs and ma'am's we can't just expect the Americans and Canadians to help us in an arms race, they just admitted they won't out right gift us their blueprints of their weapons, most of which I highly doubt we have the capability to even make." Hugh dowding said in support of Adolfine.
"Sirs if I may." Admiral Willet spoke.
"And you are?" Maloney said nearly stepping over his boundrys.
"Admiral Jane Willet United States Navy. Me and my fleet were the ones to make first contact with the 508th and Admirals Halsey and Nagumo." She said as she continued.
"The Air Chief Marshal makes a valid point on everything he said. We need to fight this war and win it as fast as we can while suffering the less casualties as possible." She was saying seeing the smug look Maloney was giving and the looks of contempt from the witches, Dowding, and even Some of the leaders but she ignored it.
"I am horrified at the thought of young girls most of which are not eighteen fighting in a war where people die, and I am especially horrified at seeing them do it without pants or stackings of any kind. In our world gentlemen and Ma'am's the recruitment of people under the age of 18 and 17ish is considered a VERY serious war crime, and you have preteens fighting and 6-10 year old girls are being trained to fight where people will die, they should be worrying about being a kid, and having fun not being forced to fight because they have a special gift." At the word gift the pro witches and witches themselves lightened up some.
"That being said, I was personally there when the 508th and its fleet were engaged with the Neuroi, from what I saw yes we could fight and defeat them easily enough, granted we have no idea about the ground forces, worst case America and Canada would have to fight like we would any present war," Now at that the looks of hate were back.
"And the worst did come, sir's we encountered a Neuroi that according to the TEMPS was of a series that was not seen before, it decimated the fleet. They had battleships give full broadside on that thing and it did not flinch. Worse still it shrugged off the blasts and regenerated its wounds fast! Worse still it shot LASERS it sliced through the ships regardless of size like a hot knife through butter. Mister president Prime Minister. The combat capability of that Neuroi alone was.. 300 years ahead of our technology, and that's just a top of the head guess. If we encounter an entire army or wing of those laser regenerating Neuroi our forces WILL be decimated. Now we lost a pilot to said Neuroi but even then when they fired off the rockets that Neuroi barely flinched, it was the witches of the 508th that did the most damage sir's. Where battleships and even our own fighters could not harm that thing the witches destroyed it like it was nothing, granted they were pushed in doing so because it was a new type of Neuroi and no one knew what to expect of it. I don't like the thought much but the Witches ARE irreplaceable in this fight, if we get rid of the witches I truly believe we lose the war." Willet finished her long account and belief on the witches, she just looked at the witches and have a quick nod.
"We'll discuss this more in depth later but if Willet says they are irreplaceable then they are vital to the war effort." Underwood said.
510th joint fighter wing "Brutal Witches" Unofficially known as the Royal Witches. Neue Karlsland: Argentina. Three days after the meeting in London
"Hey you hear the news! The leaders of the top allied Nations met in London and turns out the Americans might not be witch haters!"Came the excited tone of Benita Mussolini as she found the rest of her friends which included Adolphine Hitler, Josephine Jughashvili, or Stalin as she was called sometimes. Young Atsuko Yori and her older sister Sachiko. Both were princess who's father was Hirohito. (Yes they really were his daughters in real life) As a result of having two Princess in the squad it was to be known as the Royal witches, but due to the ruthlessness of the other three Witches they were officially known as the Brutal witches.
"Huh that's nice to hear, we get enough problems already disspite our Fathers efforts in trying to crack down on them." Sachiko stated.
"Listen up! We're being deployed to North Africa in three days, prep your gear and be ready! The Orussian ordered her squad.
and cut! Hope you like this and my Psudo OC witch unit. Leave a review on your thoughts! Next crappie we'll see some fighting in Africa.
Oh yeah when Underwood asked if Roosevelt forced Churchill if he was forced to destroy the Britannian empire.
It was during the first plus years of the war and Britain was suffering heavily from U-Boat attacks Churchill was forced to go to Roosevelt to ask for help. Though America was still neutral they cut a deal. Or more like steal. America would give 50 destroyers to Britain to help keep it in the fight for the Atlantic, but at a huge price. In return Britain hands over 8 of its over seas bases to America and it dismantled its preferential trading system with its colonies. Putting it lightly, it was a very mixed deal for the Brits because it helps them fight the war, by that time they couldn't have done it without American support materially, but on the other it Accelerates the collapse of the British empire.
