As the Prowler ship flew over the forest, the Reds and Blues were recovering from what had happened earlier in the forest. While some of them chose to relax, the others went straight to finding the answers to their questions about the new world they're in. Simmons was quick to hack into the place's form of network and shared info to the others. "So, according to the data that I've gathered in the local network I hacked into, this place or planet I should say that we are on is called Remnant." said the maroon clad red. "Remnant, how come I've never heard of that before." added Washington.

"I agree. Is this planet part of uncolonized human space since the UNSC never mentioned any of this before?" asked Carolina. Simmons then continued "Nope. It says here that Remnant has never been in contact with the UNSC or has never even heard of it. Another thing is that they haven't even managed to go to space yet." This befuddled them. In their world, it was already the 26th century and humans have already colonized planets. Does this planet have a different time zone then? "How is this even possible?" muttered Washington.

"I believe I may have answers too." The three of them turned their heads to Dr. Grey. "It appears that this planet's main source of energy is called dust." "Wait, dust as if you mean like the dirty type of dust?" asked Carolina. "Nope, this dust here is an element that has a variety of uses. It comes in two forms, in crystal form and the powdered dust form." continued the crazy doctor. "Ok" added Wash, "what do they serve as then?"

"The people here use dust as part of their technology. From the airships they have to androids. They even use these as fuel for their cars." explained Dr. Grey. "They also use them in their weapons and can greatly help them in combat like bullets and projectiles." Simmons and the Freelancers nodded to this. Dr. Grey then continued "Dust has many different types such as fire, lightning, wind, gravity and ice. The people here in Remnant did attempt to go to space but it is said that dust loses it's functionality outside the atmosphere thus diminishing the chances of space flight."

"Well that sucks" quipped Simmons. "I wonder why they didn't use other alternatives for energy like geothermal energy, fossil fuels, nuclear power, hydrogen and solar power. There is such a number of possibilities."

Dr. Grey then added "They do have other alternatives Simmons but they rely heavily on dust. There is a whole article of dust here that I can explain further to you guys. I would be happy to do that." Washington turned down the offer "Maybe some other time Dr. Grey, how about we now get some answers for this planet's geographical locations." "Ok then!" Dr. Grey happily replied.

"Well, this planet has three major continents, Sanus, Anima and Solitas." Simmons then showed to the guys a map of Remnant. It is an interesting planet. The weird thing is that the moon seems to be shattered, but they decided that it will be a topic for later. The nerdy red then continued. "I don't know about the dragon shaped one though. Moving on. In these continents hold the four kingdoms. Vale and Vacuo on Sanus, the kingdom of Mistral in Anima and the kingdom of Atlas in Solitas. We are currently flying over Forever Fall, in the city of Vale, which is part of the Kingdom of Vale. There's also this landmass called Menagerie where most of the Faunus population where placed to... Wow, there is a whole lot of information that we need to learn more about."

"That's fine Simmons" said Carolina. "Lets just tackle on the more important stuff like those monsters we fought and that other organization."

"Alright then, how about we call the rest of the guys in so they can learn on what we discovered." replied Simmons. Washington got up and went to the rest of the group in order for them to know stuff as well. JD placed the ship on auto pilot and joined the others as well. "Ok, so those giant black monster things we fought in the forest earlier are called grimm."

"Grimm?" asked Tucker.

"That's right, they are monsters habiting various parts of Remnant. They are creatures of darkness and destruction that are attracted to negative emotions." replied Simmons.

"Pure darkness and destruction? That's blasphemy! Mwahahahaha. Those fools couldn't even stand against us!" O'malley ranted.

"What about the other group? asked Doc. "Yeah, those extremist furries wearing masks and robes" chimed Donut.

Dr. Grey answered for them. "That was the White Fang. They were initially a peaceful organization of Faunus who are protesting their rights against the racism from humans, but since they're voices were never heard, they turned to a violent terrorist organization that has been attacking human settlements and plan to eradicate humanity and make Remnant a Faunus ruled domain."

"Jeez, apparently racism always exists wherever you go." Tucker added his two cents. After that, Simmons and Dr. Grey continued to share to their friends the info that they have gathered from this place.

"Simons, where did you get your info from? What I mean is, let me rephrase what I asked, what network did you hack into to get this stuff?" asked Washington.

"Oh, I hacked into the CCT" replied Simmons.

"CCT?" asked Grif.

"The CCT or the Cross Continental Transmit System is Remnant's form of communication technology and multimedia connection. This is their substitution for satellites since they can't reach to space. With them, they can connect to the other Kingdoms of the different continents. It has four relay towers, one for each kingdom. Huh, interesting."

"What is it Simmons?" asked Doc.

"It says here that if one of the towers were to be shut down, or taken offline for maintenance, or destroyed, the entire system goes offline and global communication will be cut off."

"Yikes, why couldn't they just make orbital satellites?" asked Donut.

"Because dust doesn't work in space and people primarily use this stuff here." Carolina answered for Donut.

"The people of Remnant really need to step up their game in network security. I already have found 10 ways to shut down their communications entirely." Said Simmons. "Hoho, I've got an idea. How about you hack into the network and wear those Guy Fawkes masks and ask money for ransom." joked Tucker. "The whole population would go nuts." continued the aqua clad soldier. "We are not doing that." Wash reprimanded him.

"I have an idea. Simmons, how about you set up our identities so we can be considered legal citizens so we can explore this place." Carolina said to the nerdy red. "That's a good idea. I'll get to work on that now." replied Simmons. As he set up their identities, the rest went on to do their own things.

Meanwhile, as the ship flew on, a peculiar crow tailed them and then went to change course and flew towards a huge building.

The crow entered and magically turned human and went to a desk where an individual clad in a green suit sat. "Ozpin, I might have some interesting news to share for you" the man said. The person now known as Ozpin asked. "Is it something serious. Is she planning on doing something?" "Nope" continued the man. "There is something that happened in Forever fall earlier, people in advanced armor managing to disrupt a white fang platoon and killing plenty of grimm before they escaped in their ship."

Ozpin then replied "Maybe it could have been Ironwood's men."

"I don't know Oz, they seem to be far advanced than what Atlas troops are wearing. I even contacted Jimmy about this and said that he didn't send his men to fight against the White Fang in Forever Fall."

"Interesting" muttered Ozpin. "Well, did they seem like a threat?" "I don't know, didn't get to see much of them in personal" replied the bird-man. "Ok then Qrow, if you see them again and if they do something compelling, do inform me of them. They don't seem to be a pressing matter right now."

The man now known as Qrow nodded "Sure thing Oz". Qrow transformed into a bird and then flew out of Ozpin's office. Ozpin then sipped from his coffee mug and continued to look at some more recent news in his data pad.

A/N: Hey guys, it's been a while hasn't it. I just want to apologize for my inconsistency in updating since I am a busy person in real life. I am currently in Senior high and school has taken a huge part of my time. We just managed to finish the midterm of our first semester last week and I took all my time doing homework and studying for exams. I will point out that updates may be sporadic but I will still continue to write this story. Once again I ask for your apologies and will see you guys next time.
