(A smokescreen is seen and a great, golden dragon flies out of it, breathing fire before it turns in a barrel roll formation then turns into a man made entirely of gold with one Perfect Sharingan eye, the other a Rinnegan eye and a third eye on his forehead)
Long live the KING
What's up everyone and I hope your all having a great day and staying healthy and safe during these hard times, last time we were introduced to Tifa Amaha and Kiryu, who will we be introduced to this time, let's find out
Chapter 5 The mutant
(Back with the mysterious figures)
"You MUST be joking, THAT'S better than a princess, a CHILD" One of the males said
"A little girl with an I.Q of three hundred and eight and the ONLY robotic organism in the world with artificial intelligence" The figure who suggested Tifa replied
"I hate to admit this, I real do but he has a point we already have candidates with strength and skill but those two factors can only care one so far, wits and smarts are just as important and it's what the S.F team needs" A female figure said
"And I'm looking at her record right now I must say it's rather interesting" A male figure said
"And" Another male figure asked
"Although she may have only shown her strategy prowess in her days as the…champion of the entertainment world they were near-flawless according to more seasoned competitors for her title, they were absolutely brilliant so she is a strategist which is always a good thing" The same male figure answered
"And let us not forget Kiryu, her robotic "brother" as she calls him" A male figure said
"Equipped with a wide array of weapons, functions and tools to aid in their endeavors, the Silver hawks even called them the best duo in Sumona, Kiryu is highly advanced and not so long ago the duo managed to take on well over thirty Grimm…they are impressive together" A female figure said
"Then it's settled, Tifa Amaha is a prime candidate for the S.F program which brings us to the next suggestion and" A male figure was about to say
"He is not just another candidate but a PRIME candidate, one of the most dedicated and capable, young men I have ever had the pleasure of training" A male figure said as he pulled up the file
(Atlas, AceOps personal gym)
The AceOps the best Huntsmen and Huntresses in the Atlas kingdom they were trained for years to get where they are but only one of them was just thrown into the mix, this was Hector Hadvar, a Faunus but not in the traditional sense he woke up early every morning, it was currently four-thirty in the morning, the usual time he gets up and old habit of his (Hector is a Faunus but he was born a human, his story is that he was kidnapped by an unknown organization and he was experimented on, turned him into something that has never existed in the world, a human who was turned into a Faunus but not a Faunus of the animal kingdom but one of the insect kingdom, Hector is a white male with blue eyes and black hair, standing at 5 Ft 10 In tall and of average weight, but unlike everyone else he has this exoskeleton-like armor around his upper torso, thighs and forearms and he has a total of SIX ARMS a pair on the back of his shoulders and two under his primary arms he also has prehensile feet like Beast of the X-Men) Hector was doing pullups with his left, primary hand and he would switch the grip to his right, primary hand and repeat this every time he pulled up, his shoulder arms were benching big, lifting weights while the arms under his primary arms were lifting up heavy bell weights, he was wearing a sleeveless shirt and workout pants
"One hundred and ten, one hundred and eleven, one hundred and twelve, one hundred and thirteen" Hector counted as he continued his pull ups until he heard the doors to the gym open, he then looked to see his fellow teammate, Harriet walk in
"Morning Harriet" Hector greeted her without stopping his workout
"Normal routine as usual I see" Harriet replied as she walked up to him with a breakfast bar in her hand
"What can I say, from the way I was trained getting up early is a habit" Hector said
"Get your buggy ass down here and eat your breakfast" Harriet told him, Hector rolled his eyes before he dropped from the pullup bar and put all the weights down before taking the breakfast bar from Harriet and opening it
"Anyone else up yet" Hector asked before biting into the breakfast bar
"Clover, Vine, Elm and Marrow are about…ten minutes from getting up thought I get my ass out of bed myself" Harriet answered
"Why not join me for some early morning workout then" Hector asked
"Last time I did that I was sore in places I don't wanna mention for weeks" Harriet answered
(And no, they didn't "do it" with each other if that's what you're wondering, that was when they worked out a lot)
"Are those the places where you don't like boys to stare at" Hector asked
"Hmmmm, not ALL the boys…I like it when you stare at it" Harriet replied, Hector cracked a small smile
"You sure you won't join me for a workout" Hector asked, Harriet then grabbed him by the collar of his shirt and pulled him close to her face
"I got something else in mind to do with our ten minutes, COME HERE" Harriet said before she clamped her lips onto his in a kiss and Hector wrapped two pairs of arms around her, the two of them have been in a secret relationship for a long while and no one knew about it since it was against the rules for romantic attachments, only the members of their team knew about it and Clover made them swear to keep it under wraps
(Ten minutes later, break area)
In the break room all was quiet for now, the AceOps doing their own thing, Clover was reading a book, Marrow was playing a game on his scroll, Elm was watching a bit of TV, Harriet was running on a treadmill and Vine and Hector was playing chess
"Knight to E five" Vine called as the chess pieces automatically moved to where Vine commanded (Think of wizard's chess from Harry Potter but with technology)
"Queen to E five" Hector called as his piece moved to the spot and took Vine's knight piece
"Hmm" Vine muttered
"That's check Vine" Hector called
"Is it too late to ask for mercy" Vine asked
"What's the score now" Marrow asked Clover, referring to how many times the two have played chess
"Over the course of five years, about a hundred matches, fifty wins for both Vine and Hector" Clover answered before turning a page in his book
"He's about as lucky as you are Clover" Elm told Clover
"Somehow I think it's more attribute to him being taught by Winter and the general than luck" Harriet said, Hector after arriving in Atlas he was taken under the wing of both Winter Schnee and General Ironwood, personally trained by both of them given his uniqueness they took it upon themselves to train him
"Who's to say it ain't a little of both" Hector asked
"That's what I call being too confident, bug boy" Harriet called him by her pet name for him
"It's not overconfident when you got the grit to back it up wabbit" Hector called back with his pet name for her, she then deactivated and got off the treadmill
"Oh, you DID NOT just call me wabbit" Harriet asked
"Yes…yes, I did, got something to say about it" Hector asked before Harriet ran at him with her speed and they both went flying onto the ground before they started play struggling, Hector accidentally kicked the chess pieces into the air with his foot, Vine then reacted and managed to catch them all with his aura hands as the lovers struggled on the ground
"TAKE IT BACK, TAKE IT BACK" Harriet yelled as she laughed
"YOU GOTTA MAKE ME WABBIT" Hector called before he restrained her with four of his six arms, she struggled to get free, but he was stronger than her
"GAH, AH…oh COME ON" Harriet said as she continued to struggle
"Tap out" Hector told her
"Never" She answered, Hector then raised his last pair of hands and wiggled his fingers in a tickling-like motion
"You still ticklish" He asked her
"No, NO" Harriet said before he started tickling her, she started laughing hysterically
"I gotta say since Hectors been here, Harriet's been more relaxed and less" Marrow was about to say
"Serious" Elm asked
"Tense" Vine asked
"Yes, to both" Marrow said
"ALRIGHT, ALRIGHT, ALRIGHT, I GIVE, I GIVE" Harriet called before Hector let her go and they both got to their feet
"How come you always win" Harriet asked
"Because I got six arms…and your ticklish" Hector said
"Your lucky your so cute otherwise I'd kick your buggy ass" Harriet told him then the door opened to show Winter and Ironwood
"ATTENTION, GENERAL ON DECK" Clover announced as all the AceOps dropped what they were doing and stood up like soldiers
"At ease" Ironwood called, the AceOps relaxed
"What can we do for today you sir" Clover asked Ironwood
"Hector, step forth" Ironwood said, Hector then walked over to him
"Yes sir" Hector said
"Son, there's something I need to discuss with you but…in private, would you join me in my office" Ironwood asked Hector
"Of course, sir but if I may ask, why didn't you just call over the intercom instead of walking all the way here" Hector asked
"I wanted to come here myself and tell you myself, shall we" Ironwood asked as he motioned out of the room, Hector then turned to the AceOps
"I'll be back guys" Hector told them as he walked out followed by Winter
"Wonder what the general wants with Hector" Elm asked
"Don't know but it must be important for him to walk down here and ask him face to face" Clover said
"You…don't think it's anything bad, do you" Marrow asked, this made Harriet shutter a bit
*Does he…KNOW about us* Harriet asked in her mind
"Probably wants to promote him, after all he has been one of our best for a while now" Marrow said, Harriet then shook her head
*That's what it probably is* Harriet said
"Come on…we should get to our normal routine before we have an earful from the general" Clover told his team
(With Ironwood and Hector)
Ironwood took Hector to his office where he offered him some coffee
"So, what's this about general" Hector asked, Ironwood then motioned for him to take a seat which he did
"Hector do you remember the day we took you in" Ironwood asked
"Remember…how can I forget general, you and Winter found me after…you know, you both took me in, gave me a place, unlike everyone else you saw something more than just a freak of nature" Hector said before taking a sip of his coffee
"You were a boy who needed someone to help you, we help people it's what we do" Winter told him
"Now look at you son, one of if not THE best Huntsman in all of Atlas" Ironwood said
"I had great teachers but general, what is this about…am I in trouble" Hector asked
"No, no, nothing like that son but believe me this IS important" Ironwood said before nodding to Winter who sealed the room, making it so anything said in the room wasn't gonna be heard
*Man, this must be serious if he's gotta use the privacy windows* Hector said in his mind
"Hector, what I'm about to tell you is…classified, VERY…classified, so in other words" Ironwood was about to say
"Speak a word of this and my bug ass is grass" Hector asked, making Winter smirk and Ironwood chuckle
"You got it, now Hector a few…associates of mine are let's say looking for special talent to be apart of a team…a very, unique team" Ironwood said
"Unique" Hector asked
"Yes, you aren't the only unique person in the world but I won't drag out the point here, son, what these associates are trying to do is put together a team…and they want you to be apart of it" Ironwood said
"To do what, general" Hector asked
"I'm afraid that's also classified information until you agree to join" Ironwood said
"Why ask me though" Hector asked
"Because no one in Atlas is like you, Hector, you have strengths that everyone else doesn't have and from the little information that the general has given me you would be an invaluable member" Winter told Hector
"In short terms Hector, this team…will only consist of the BEST of the best and you are the best student I have ever had the pleasure of training" Ironwood said
"I'm already part of a team" Hector replied, Ironwood took a few seconds to get his thoughts together about what he wanted to say next
"As much as it pains me to say this Hector, but the AceOps compared to the individuals that are being assembled into this team are mere children" Ironwood, Hector and Winter were stunned, the AceOps are Ironwood's pride and joy to say that this team will be more than them is evidence of its rarity
"Not…that I'm agreeing to this sir but what exactly is the purpose of this team" Hector asked
"Like I said, I can't reveal much until you agree to join but believe me when I tell you this son" Ironwood said before putting a hand on Hector's right shoulder
"This team is of the utmost importance and they need someone with your skills, your strength and with your particular abilities, those skills and you have been a most welcomed asset to the AceOps but…I think you can be more than what you are now son" Ironwood told him
"What if I don't wanna be more, what if I like who I am now, AceOps are like an extended family to me I can trust them, they don't judge me" Hector said
"If you never become more than what you are then you'll never find out what your truly capable of, Hector" Winter told him
"I think I heard that from Vine once" Hector said
"Him and Winter have a point Hector…I need you to trust me on this one not just as your commanding officer but also as a friend" Ironwood told him, hector thought about it for a minute, he owed the general and Winter everything, they took him in, sheltered him, trained him, gave him a place and introduced him to not only the AceOps but also Harriet, Hector sighed before answering
"Alright general, I'll…see what they're about" Hector answered
"That's my boy" Ironwood said
"Should I pack anything" Hector asked
"Only if you insist on staying with the people we've gathered and although I hope you will the choice is strictly up to you, my boy we leave in ten minutes" Ironwood said
"And my team" Hector asked
"I'm sorry to say Hector but you can't tell them anything I have told you…we can't risk it, you understand don't you" Ironwood asked
"I…y-yes sir, I understand" Hector answered
"Your dismissed then" Ironwood told him, Hector saluted the general and Winter before leaving
"You think that he'll choose the AceOps over this new team your putting together" Winter asked Ironwood
"You know how close he is to them, Winter…who knows but I hope that he does join the team" Ironwood replied before he called someone on his scroll
"Yes" A male voice called from the other side of the line
"Hector is coming…but he is very close to the AceOps, I can only hope that he sees the potential in what we're trying to do" Ironwood said
"The pendulum of fate can swing in many different ways all we can do is hope that it swings in our favor" The man on the other side of the scroll said
And that is another wrap people but before we end the chapter here is the information on Hector
Hector Hadvar (The mutant Faunus)
Kingdom of origin: Atlas
Best friend of Penny
Member of the AceOps
Unnaturally created incest-like Faunus
