Hello guys, new chapter again. Anyway we're moving to a 2 week update cycle because of prior obligations IRL and this way we can really work and polish what we put out instead of rushing each chapter. That being said, we're actually going to get into the main conflict of the story, I know it's about time right? Anyway this will be the last major chapter involving worldbuilding, after this you're gonna see some fireworks.
Things in Remnant had fallen into a new routine, for the most part. The Guardians had managed to engraine themselves into the day to day operations of the world. Repairs to the damages caused by the Vex were all but finished, with only minor touch ups left to finish. The new education at Beacon had also seen very apparent results. Shaxx's intense training regime has shown major results, with some of the students under his tutelage fighting in ways only seen in professional huntsmen. The crucible master noted their substantial leaps in bounds in combat prowess and tactics, but still believed there was room to grow.
Sienna's formal declaration of peace between the White Fang and the rest of Remnant came as a shock to the populace. There were mixed reactions in both human and faunus communities with some calling it an elaborate ruse while others celebrating it as a sign of things to come. Popular opinion was all over the place, and the disagreements involved caused not a few public incidents before Cayde and Barloc were forced to make a public announcement declaring their trust in Sienna, and vowing to work with the White Fang.
This quelled the public to a certain extent, but there were still a substantial amount of active White Fang splinter cells that decided to turn away from Sienna altogether, still calling for blood and war.
But all that doesn't matter now. For the day has finally arrived. The day that travel between Earth and Remnant is established. In a recent broadcast from Cayde-6, he announced that at midnight on this night, satellites will enter into orbit around Remnant and once up, they will connect to their sister satellites around Earth and instant communication between worlds will be possible, and the entire thing will be on a live broadcast.
To say that everyone was excited by the announcement would be moot. All around the world, viewing parties are being established from the poorest regions to the most high-class of classes, getting ready for the greatest moment in Remnant's history. At Beacon, a large screen TV was being set up in the auditorium for all the students to view. Even a snack bar with food and drinks were set out ready to be served to the party goers.
While the rest of the school was eagerly awaiting the greatest moment in history, four individuals, however, were not in celebratory spirits. Those being Daisy, Blake, her mother Kali and her recovering father Ghira.

Blake opened the door after taking a breath. Her father was still in the hospital bed, his chest slowly rising and falling. Even though the curse had been removed by Summer's efforts, the cellular damage and effect on his soul still needed time to heal. She slowly closed the door behind her and took a chair and brought it to his bedside. Sitting down, she cupped his hand with hers.
"Hey dad… been awhile since we talked in person." Blake said to him. He didn't respond at all, lying there almost motionless.
It really was bringing down her spirits. Seeing her father like this for the first time in the last five years. Only rarely talking to him yet only to insult him and her mother till she realized her teacher… was a vile, broken man driven to vengeance, due to what was done to him physically and psychologically. She thought the same and called him out. Her own father. A coward at what the Faunas where facing these days.
"I hope you get to meet my friends when you wake up. They're… really great." When she came to Beacon Academy after her realization. She understood why he left and became Chieftain of Menagerie. The sudden spike of Faunas wanting faster results. Using terrorism as a means to striking fear into the humans. She started to tear up at her father's state. While their last conversation was from a letter, she really wanted to say she was sorry in person, but with what happened, it would be a long while.
"I… just wanted to say…" Blake stopped herself to try and compose herself, tears beginning to stream down her face. But there was no stopping the floodgates from bursting. "I'm sorry! I said things that were too much… I was blind, even after everything we went through. I had….I thought...I thought Adam was right in a way… but… I couldn't stand it. The blood that was spilled, the faces of those I hurt. I ran… none of my friends know this… Only Shin does, but that's because he saw right through me. I'm… just not sure of much anymore."
She then heard the door open and turned her eyes to it. Daisy walked in with a bundle of flowers. Her helmet was off so Blake got a good look at Daisy's neutral face, which quickly reverted to a smile. Closing the door behind her she set the flowers in a vase on the coffee table on Ghira's right side if the bed. Daisy then took a seat, and notices the agitation from Blake.
"Is something wrong Blake?" Daisy asked rather confused that Blake was giving her a look torn between irritation and regret. Blake sighed, and calmed down a bit.
"Its nothing. Though why are you here?" Blake asked.
Blake was worried that Daisy heard her pour her heart out. Thinking that she should have been a bit quieter and tried rubbing away her tears. Though Daisy didn't seem to be mindful or just didn't care about seeing Blake in her "emotional state" at the moment.
"I came by to see if Mr. Belladonna was still ok. You did take off running the day when you got that call from Cayde to check on him. Really should have put two and two together though, I mean you and your father have the same black hair and amber eyes after all." Daisy replied.
"Were you there? At Menagerie during the Vex counteroffensive?"
"Yes. I was. Me, my grandfather, at least three other four man teams with one of my Grandfather's friends piloting his ship as our air support. I met at the front lines. Him and the police force were holding the last line of defense. We helped push the Vex off the island and helped rebuild the town. Though after the Vex where pushed off I helped out the orphanage take care of the children. I… don't necessarily like moving… bodies." Daisy replied. Blake nodded as she turned back to her father.
"He loves you. You know that right?" Daisy said. Blake looked surprised for a moment, before she looked away in shame.
"You don't believe me?" Daisy asked with a eyebrow raised.
"How would you know?"
"He told me."

Daisy held a book in her hands while the children surrounded her, as she read line after line of what was in it. Sometimes the chieftain of Menagerie came to see how the orphanage was, and to see if the children were being treated well, or if it needed any necessities. Ghira watched as children either laughed, giggled, or made a funny comment about any specific character. Ghira looked at the title of the book with his enhanced vision. Her hands covered who wrote it, but the title was plain as day. It was something called "The Magician's Nephew". She would speak in odd, but funny accents to ether bring a feeling for the scene.
"And then Diggery saw the great Lion that many have said was there. The thought of 'mother will be well again' he ran with great joy in his heart. He then looked at the lion. But what befell his ears filled his heart with dread, and tears rained from his cheeks."
""Diggery Clerk, it is you that has brought about evil in Narnia." Daisy said in her best Liam Neeson voice.
A few gasps rang out through the crowd of children, their reactions one of shock as she continued. "His hope for getting his mother well again evaporated that very instant Aslan finished his sentence. He thinks that there's no way that the Lion was going to help his mother now. His sorrow grew in his heart. And a lump formed in his throat. But then something caught his ear. Aslan spoke again."
"Are you ready to restore what your foolishness has wrought?"
"His tone held no malice. His eyes didn't betray what he saw in the little boy. The boy spoke but his sorrow was carried with every word"
"Yes… but cant you give me something that will cure mother?"
"The boy looked up and saw something that surprised young Diggery. Something that would make others feel like they were insignificant to this moment. For the Great Lions face was bent near his own. Wonder of wonders great tears fell from the Lions eyes. For the moment the young lad thought the Lion felt more pity for his mother then himself."
"My son, my son, I know. Grief is great." The Lion spoke. "You and I know this in the land yet." Daisy saw the time on the wall and closed the book. And looked onto the small children.
"Ok little ones. Time for bed." Daisy said with a smile.
The children all pouted, as their heart strings were being played, only to be abruptly followed by the silence of disappointment for having not heard the rest of the story.
"Please Ms. Daisy, read a little more!" Said one of the kids.
"Sorry but 8:00 is your bedtime. Now run along to bed. I'll have another person read yea the rest of the story and series before I leave tomorrow." Daisy replied with a sweet motherly tone. The children did what they were told, and went to bed as Daisy put the book in a collection box, leaving it on a low shelf. As she exited the small library of the orphanage building, she saw Ghira standing outside of the room.
"Oh, I- we weren't expecting you." Daisy stuttered a bit nervously, having been caught off guard.
"No need to be so formal . I was simply going to ask if you'd like some tea with me and my wife?" Ghira asked.
"Oh." She let out in surprise and relief, as she quickly considered it. "I guess it won't hurt to go out for a little bit."
00000
"Thanks again for inviting me for some tea. But I don't see any other reason. I mean, surely negotiations between Menagerie and Cayde have been well? Active since me and my fireteam ridden the Island of Vex. Is there something else?" Daisy asked she she placed down her tea. Ghira nodded to her assessment. Being that her fireteam leader was the one constantly in contact with the Hunter Vanguard, Daisy was nothing other than being a hero with her teammates among Menagerie's government and people. It made little sense for her to be over at all sense she had no real position of Political power.
"I recently got a email from Cayde. He said that you and your Grandfather are redeploying. You to Beacon Academy, and your Grandfather back to Earth." Ghira said
"I see. But what does this have to do with me being sent to Beacon? You have a child there?" She asked.
"Yes. Her name is Blake. She's seventeen like you." Ghira replied.
"I see. But couldn't you simply message her yourself or go there in person?" Daisy asked
"Our last conversation didn't really end well. I highly doubt she would want to see or hear from us for a time. However, if we do meet her again, you don't have to say a word." Kalli said.
Daisy nodded in understanding.
"I see. You want me to forward a message to her if something happens to either of you?"
Blake's parents nod.
00000
"He said that he and your mother love you, and are proud that you've found your way again. That you saw through Adam's lies, and what the Vale Branch of the White Fang were doing. That you had the courage to face them again, but instead of bullets and crossing swords, you did so with Ideals and understanding. They love you Blake. Nothing you do can change that." Daisy replied
Blake smiled and teared up at her father's late message to her through this other worlder. Rubbing her tears away. Her smile was brighter.
"Thanks Daisy. I needed that." Blake said, a relieved smile on her face.
Daisy only smiled and nodded. They then looked back at Ghira, who was still breathing without any problems. Though one thing still laid dormant on her mind.
"Hey Blake. I have a question." Daisy asked
"What is it?" Blake asked.
"Why did you stay with Adam? And the Vale Branch of the White Fang?" Daisy replied. It seems to have struck a chord with the cat faunus, as she got a wary look in her eye.
"Why do you ask?"
"It's just… why would you stay with them when you have such caring parents? Why stay with people who only steal, kill, and destroy?" Daisy asked. Blake saw that she was genuinely curious. Like she knows something from Earth that was similar to her situation. However, she didn't know what her angle was, and didn't want to say anything about her time with the Vale Branch.
"What would you know about Faunas discrimination?" Blake practically scolded. Daisy just kept a neutral face, as Blake just spilled her guts out.
"What would you know about discrimination? Your people on earth already solved that problem even before the Collapse happened. You all lived in harmony by the time Summer Rose came by. The Forces of Darkness practically was just biding time for another collapse to finally wipe you all out, while you all have it easy and blissfully ignorant of the forces that lay outside your door. What would you know about losing someone?! A friend due to what he went through!?" Blake fumed.
Daisy just closed her eyes and sighs. She hoped that she'd never have to share some scars. She opened her eyes, empathy within them as she stared at Blake, her face staying neutral as a green light appeared over her shoulder. The image was that of a soldier in bulky armor with a rather large pistol in its hands. It's movement was like that of a old video game as it spoke.
"Are you sure about this Daisy?" The image asked. Daisy nodded.
"I am Delta." She replied
"Complying." The image said as it disappears. Then a glow of Daisy right gauntlets meant that it was being transmatted. The Armor plates along her left arm disappeared. She then removed the air sealed glove on her hand and rolled up the sleeve of her body suit to reveal something on her arm. Scars where marked onto her flesh. But unlike the runes on Summers arm that Daisy saw. These were burned into her skin. Not like Summers which were stabbed into her skin and carved out with a knife. Blake couldn't make out what they were due to them being so faded and some intersecting one another it was hard to make out what exactly was burned into her skin. Probably at a young age most likely as well do to how they were fading.
"Blake. Out of everyone that's human on this planet. I'm probably the only one of my species you know that knows the pain of discrimination. But not of race. But of thought." Daisy replied. She then rolled down her sleeve and put the glove back on. Her armor was then transmitted back to her left arm, as if she hadn't taken it off in the first place. Though Blake was in shock at what she saw. Her own people branded her with something on her skin. Daisy got up and walked to the door.
"I hope your father gets well Blake. I mean that. Be glad you can have your father back any minute now." Daisy said. She then walked out of the room and closed the door behind her. Opting to give Blake and her father some privacy. But Blake was all more confused at her last words of her being able to have her father back. Daisy was more of a mystery to Blake. She could only sigh a she realized the irony between herself and Daisy when it came to their pasts. Wanting no one to know what was beyond the mask they hid themselves behind. She then heard the door open again. Looking up she saw her mother for the first time in who knows how long.
"Ghira are you… Blake?" Kali said, as she saw her teenage daughter by her husband's side. Blake didn't know what to do. She nervously held onto her arm. Looking away from her mother. Thinking back. Blake put two and two together. Daisy. Saw a lot of young children never able to have there parents back. Or at the very least her father. Though she doesn't know for sure really. But now she was able to see her mother. Looking up but rather trying to avert her eyes.
"Hey… mom." Blake awkwardly greeted, having not expected this. She honestly expected to hear her mother scold her for leaving them the way she did.. But she didn't hear a single word. Not until she felt her mother wrap her arms around her. "My baby girl!" Kalli wailed crying into her daughter's hair.
"It's… good to see you too mom." Blake cried as well, a smile on her face as she hugged her walked away from the door. Putting on her helmet and her hood. After a few minutes She got a text from Cayde to stay by Mr, and Mrs. Belladonna as Blake was gonna go to the auditorium soon. So she waited for Blake to leave before she could go back in. To act as the Belladonnas' Bodyguard. She looked back as Blake made her way to the area. She hoped she got her point across to the cat Faunus as best she could.
Blake headed to the auditorium, knowing that Daisy will keep an eye on her parents. As she entered, she saw all the students and teachers either watching the screen countdown to the final hours before the satellites go up or partaking in the snacks. She saw Yang waving her arm towards her towards the middle of the Auditorium, signalling her to where her team was seated. She made her way to the team and sat down, noticing Doctor Oobleck in the distance.
"Why is professor Oobleck-"
"Doctor!" she heard said Doctor Oobleck from the other side of the vast room.
"Doctor Oobleck standing around with a bunch of suitcases near him?" She asked.
"I heard Uncle Cayde say that Oobleck has been approved for an Inter Planetary Visa, and as soon as a secure transport route between our worlds is figured out, he'll be the first one through the gate." Ruby said as she stuffed her face full of popcorn, and giving a few to Zwei, who was sitting in the seat right beside her. The entire room suddenly gone silent as the screen turned on featuring a real-time view of Remnant from space. Everyone in the room and all across the planet saw their homeworld from space and marveled at the beauty before them. From the planet came a large rocket slowly approaching the camera. It split apart revealing seven decahedron satellites. One of them approached the camera propelled by small jets on the sides, while the remaining six went to the left and right towards their own positions. A small miniature screen showed Remnant in the center slowly surrounded by the satellites with a small percentage screen slowly going upwards. As the satellites went into their designated zones, the percentage went up. As the final one went to its place a message popped up on the screen.
ESTABLISHING CONNECTION…
Every single human and faunus held their breath waiting. For a good half hour, no one spoke, eyes glued to their screens when the words that would be engraved in the history books popped up.
CONNECTION ESTABLISHED
From the speakers Cayde's voice sounded. "We're green across the board! Welcome to a new age, Remnant!" And with those words everyone shouted in celebrations. Streamers and confetti dropped on the students heads as they cheered. Even from within the auditorium, some heard the cheering coming even from the city itself as everyone cheered. All across the world people were celebrating. In villages, humans and faunas slapped each other on the backs and hugged each other as they joined the revelry. In the Schnee Manor, Jacques Schnee, patriarch of the Schnee family popped open a bottle of champagne and toasted with his guests, thinking to himself how he would establish SDC's presence on Earth.

In Salem's fortress deep in the Grimmlands, even she and her subordinates, excluding the Shadows of Yor who were busy with something, were watching the launch in high spirits. At her table, she produced a bottle of wine covered in dust (the regular kind).
"I was saving this for when my plans succeeded, but I think this is a better use for it." She waved her hand and the wine was poured into glasses for Cinder, Tyrian, Watts, Hazel, Merlot. She raised her glass in a toast. "To the dawn of a new age."
"For a New Age!" And they all drank in celebration.

Summer was among the students celebrating the successful launch and connection between Earth and Remnant. She wondered whether this is what the people of Earth felt when they established space flight. It almost felt like nothing could ruin this moment of triumph. But fate had something different in store. Drei appeared right next to her head. "Summer, message from both Ozpin and Cayde." She frowned, knowing that whatever message they had would be related to saving the world. She edged her way past the partygoers and exited the auditorium and into the hall.
"Alright Drei, what's up?" What he said shook her to her core, and briefly she heard dark laughter deep in her mind.
"We have an SOS from Saladin Forge."
00000
Summer practically flew into Ozpin's office after hearing the news. Around the table in the center of the room stood Cayde, Barloc, Ozpin, Glynda, and Ironwood. They were all surrounding a projection of Lord Saladin himself, being displayed by Sundance.
"We have a breach at the Cosmodrome." Spoke the hologram of Saladin. "At first I thought it was just a particularly persistent Fallen House until I had discovered evidence of trespassing into the Warmind vault there. If my suspicions are true, then this is not a matter that can be ignored, but I lack the strength to face it alone. Send whatever you are able to spare, but make haste. I fear the Fallen have unleashed something they themselves cannot control. Saladin out."
Summer approached the table as the recording finished playing.
"What happened?" She asked.
"Nothing good." Cayde remarked. "If it's gotten old Saladman riled up, then it definitely can't be good."
"If what you have told me about this Lord Saladin is true, then what could he be possibly referring to?" Ozpin asked.
"I have an idea…" Barloc replied gravely. "Saladin is a man with a heart and will that matches his title. In all of the universe, there is only one thing he has ever feared, and if it is that one thing, then we are all in danger."
"What is this, 'thing', you speak of?" Ironwood demanded. "If it is such a danger, we should deal with it immediately."
"It is not something the likes of you can potentially deal with." Barloc replied dryly. "The only thing that I can think of Saladin referring to is, SIVA…"
"...SIVA?" Summer cocked her head to the side, unfamiliar with the name. "What is that?"
"Don't ask me, I've never heard of it either." Cayde shrugged.
"I wouldn't expect any of you to have." Barloc continued. "Saladin took great measures to ensure all history and data of SIVA were destroyed. He thought that if anyone got their hands on it, regardless if they were for good intentions or not, it would cause such devastation that it'd wipe out humanity. Only a select few know the story, and even then the knowledge is limited. Even among guardians as old as I."
"This SIVA, is it a weapon?" Ozpin asked. Barloc sighed.
"It wasn't meant to be." He said. "From what little I know from Iron Lady Skorri and Iron Lord Radegast, they went after a lost Golden Age tech known as SIVA. SIVA was supposed to be the epitome of the Golden Age's tech; a adaptive network of nanites that could build structures faster than anything in the solar system. Every Iron Lord and Iron Wolf went looking for it, but Lord Saladin was the only one who returned. "
"Do you know what happened?" Summer asked.
"Rasputin happened." Barloc pursed his lips. "I don't know the full details, but that Warmind controlled SIVA to serve its own purposes. The only person who can and will tell you the whole story is Saladin himself."
"So where does that leave us then?" Glynda asked, breaking her silence. "What are the chances this SIVA could arrive here?"
"Hard to say, considering the nature of it." Barloc replied. "A day, a week, a matter of months even? It all depends on how long Saladin can stem the tide, and prevent it from getting out of… wherever it may be inside the Cosmodrome, but that's why he's asking for help."
"I say we send everything." Ironwood announced slamming his fist on the table. "Mobilize the entire armed forces of Remnant to go in there, and eliminate this SIVA, before it puts us at risk."
"Typical." Glynda snorted, "Could you stop and think a moment before deciding to throw a hammer at every problem that comes your way, James?"
"What would you suggest then?" Ironwood shot back.
"First of all." Barloc cut in. "With your current capabilities, you would be flying into a massacre. A massacre that would only benefit SIVA." Ironwood paused.
"Barloc's right." Summer added. "If an entire Fallen House is involved, then you won't stand a chance. And from the way he's describing SIVA, it sounds more like a virus than anything else. When was the last time you fought against something like that, Jimmy?" Ironwood's eyebrow twitched when Summer called him by his nickname. A nickname he really didn't like hearing.
"Fine then, what's the plan?" Ironwood relented.
"Sending a large force in would just end up with them either become fodder for the Fallen or SIVA, neither being a desirable outcome." Barloc mused.
"And not to mention, you would attract a lot of unnecessary attention from some pretty nasty dudes if you just dropped an army on Earth." Cayde added.
"A smaller force then." proposed Ozpin, while he glanced over at Summer. "Perhaps Miss Rose would be up for the task?"
"I'll need a team in that case." Summer replied crossing her arms. "Who do we got that's available?"
Barloc immediately motioned to Cayde, the message to him and Summer coming through loud and clear.
"Mmmm not much by the looks of it." Cayde was looking through a list of names on his scroll. "Your usual fireteam was asked to go deal with White Fang splinter cells in Mistral. I can't leave my post here and neither can Shaxx or Byf. Most of the other Guardians on hand are also out doing various other assignments across the planet. Sorry, but we're all tapped out right now."
"Or you know, I'll do it." Everyone in the room turned to look where the voice was coming from. Standing inside the door frame to the office was a lanky man with messy hair, drinking out of a flask.
"Qrow? How long have you been there?" Ozpin asked.
"Pretty much the entire time." Qrow replied putting away his flask. "It sounded really important so I was worried you wouldn't let me in on it."
"Your track record doesn't give us much of a good reason to." Glynda remarked with a slight scowl.
"I'm hurt." Qrow joked as he approached the table.
"With all due respect Mr. Branwen." Barloc began, "This may be above your-"
"What abilities?" Qrow cut him off. "Oh, like somehow you Guardians are better than us in every single way, and we need to hide behind you guys for everything?"
"I didn't say that." said Barloc. "It's just that without a ghost, the mission may put you at-" Barloc cut himself off, opting for a different choice of words. "There may be no way back out of this once you're in."
"As if you Guardians ever cornered the market on killing bad guys." Qrow said with a sneer.
Barloc was about to respond to the remark, but was cut off by his scroll vibrating in his pocket. He took it out, and found something that made his eyes widen underneath the helmet.
"I know why you're hiding out as Cayde's secretary. It's not hard to feel the lack of light when one of you Guardians isn't around." The message said, clearly having came from Qrow. He quickly, but not hastily to show his concern, put the scroll back into his pocket.
"Very well. If you feel as if you can handle this, I won't stop you. But do take note:These enemies may be familiar to Summer, but they've more than likely will have things neither of you three shall expect." Barloc stated as a matter of fact, his posture unchanged.
Qrow raised an eyebrow.
"I know you're going to drag Tai along with you, so I'm just going to avoid the argument and preemptively give him permission." Barloc said, before the words could leave Qrow's mouth.
"Tai?" Summer asked, looking to Barloc. "Barloc, I can understand Qrow, but…"
"Comparable data shows that Yang is already able to be self-reliant, as well as your daughter Ruby." Barloc said in response. "While I wouldn't like it either, Tai has all rights to go as well, and there's a high probability of him doing so. However, since they're both non-guardians, you need to watch their backs more than yours, Summer."

A sword pierced a Fallen Captain as the SIVA infused tank explodes. With a quick pull the broadswords blade retreated the Splicers flesh as ether sprayed everywhere. The Captain fell backwards as other Splicers realized that their mission was a failure, and immediately transmatted back to their ketch. The artillery battery emplacements that here bombarding sector 17 of the Cosmodrome came to a halt much earlier, as the Guardian in black and red armor did a few swings to get the ether off his blade. His blood red visor looked out to the setting sun. The carnage he had just delivered to the splicers has been rather harsh, as if the Fallen had slighted him personally.
In a way, they did so very long ago. He will deliver what they wrought on themselves personally but for now, he was going to need some rest. Placing his sword on his back next to his rifle. He decided to watch the sunset as guardians poured into the Cosmodrome. Looking back at the destroyed tank, a vandal was slowly getting up using the destroyed machinery as a crutch to get up. Holding one of it's hand on a bullet wound to it's chest it looked up at the black colored Titan with shades of red. It shouted something he knew he had been seen as by the house of devils.
"Demon!" It uttered with its hoarse voice through its mask.
The Titan looked back at the sunset. But his right hand pulled a pistol and fired a round into the dying Vandals head. Ether and purple blood spewed from the damaged mask as it fell to the ground dead.
"Something doesn't feel right." The Titan said reholstering his sidearm.
"Yeah. And I fear it's just gonna get worse." His Ghost said as it appeared next to him.
"Yeah. That's what worries me." The Titan said.
Hope you guys enjoyed that bit, and now a few words from the authors.
Diluation:So just to let you know, I'll be off for a couple of weeks. Life bumped in the way, and it's forcing me to hiatus this and my story for a bit. Don't worry, this doesn't mean progress is altogether stopping for the story until I'm done, as I have full confidence that Regal can write my part of the work in my absence(really, the dude practically read my character Barloc like an open book. It takes me a lot of time to get myself into writing somebody different and developed.).
Animeak116: Well guys hope you enjoyed the chapter. And to a particular Rockman1159…..We WILL have our vengeance.
Aquilos: Animeak stop declaring boot wars on everyone.
Dustin: *You have reached the answering machine of Dustiniz117, please leave a message after the beep.*
Animeak116: must I always retort?
Diluation:I'll have to join you on the boot war later btw, Animeak. Do you have any idea how many times I slammed the door on my face? To prevent myself from looking too damn handsome? Because that's the boot's fault!
Animeak116:That sounds like a u problem
Aquilos: Children, Enough!
Animeak116: Shut up your not my Staff Sergeant. Nor my Battery Guns, or CO. Because i have Howitzers on this guy's butt!
Anyway while I clean up the inevitable war that's gonna happen in the writers room. On behalf of Fireteam Nero, I wish you all a good day. - Aquilos
