Chapter 1: The New World

It was lush.

Also red, very red.

The leaves in the, apparently red, forest fell, they showed no sign of stopping their fall. The Recruit VISR slowly rebooted itself and showed all of the essentials.

Shields, current equipped weapon, ammo, grenades and motion sensor. The Spartan inside the twitched his fingers, he suddenly jumped into consciousness.

"doWN! GET DOWN! Now…" Damian slowly got his bearings. His shields slowly recharging, giving the familiar yellow glow "Wh…what?"

Damian looked around, seeing his Assault Rifle laying on a red grass. "Where…where am i?" He slowly got up to his feet, the pelican he was in, now crashed on the red grass.

Damian looked towards the sky, expecting to see a Covenant storm fleet and a UNSC Starship, he saw instead a blue sky.

No Covenant. No UNSC Ship. No nothing…

Damian turned to grab his rifle but saw his Sergeant, Xavier, hanging upside down from a tree "Oh shit-" Damian ran to his superior and slowly pulled him down.

Xavier still laid limp, Damian shook his body "Come on, come on…" The Spartan stood thinking of a plan.

Damian ran to the fallen pelican and looked for a defibrillator. "There!" He grabbed it and inspected it, it was still functional.

The Spartan ran back to his sergeant and connected the defibrillator to his armor. "Please…be alive." Damian activated the defibrillator and Xavier jumped back to life

"Augh!" Xavier breathed in "What the-!"

Damian sighed in relief "Oh thank god! I thought you had died sir!"

Xavier lifted his hands, slowly getting his bearings "Like…likewise Corral…" He wobbled back onto his feet and grabbed his DMR "Where are we?"

"I don't know." Damian tried looking for a UNSC signal "I'm not getting a signal."

"Check all channels." Xavier walked into the pelican, going into the cockpit. He tried powering up the Pelican, but to no avail

"No sir." Damian spoke from behind "No response"

Xavier walked back out of the Pelican and stood there "Then what happened?"

Damian looked around and saw a smoke cloud over the trees, it seemed far "What's over there?" The Sergeant stood next to Damian

"I don't know…we should check it out. See if we can find out where we are." Xavier loaded his rifle.

Damian loaded his Assault Rifle, hoping to find some answers.

-City of Tryferos-

Damian aimed around his rifle, observing the ruins of a city, Tryferos, as he saw in a welcoming sign. "What in the hell happened here?"

Xavier held a shotgun at the ready for a fight "Hell if I know…"

Out of nowhere a figure crashed in front of them. The two Spartans aimed their weapons at the smoke cloud.

"Ooh! That really hit all the right spots." The figure was dusting herself off, the smoke cleared and the two spartans could see the silhouette fully.

It was a black-haired woman dusting herself off. She had some sort of glowing black energy flowing around her arms and around her face. "Montiel. There's a Nevermore in the air, I need you to-" The woman noticed the two Spartans looking at her.

Damian cleared his throat and slowly spoke "Hello"

The woman raised her eyebrow "Uhh…hi-Hey Montiel did Beacon say we were getting back up?" The woman turned away from the two, mumbling to whomever she was talking to then turned back to the Spartans "Think you two could help us out?"

Xavier nodded "Sure, what's happening here?" The two Spartans walked with the woman

"Name's Umbra by the way" Umbra introduced herself "We have a Shadow Nevermore flying around. We gotta take it down"

Damian looked to the ruined city square and the Shadow Nevermore flew right above them. Umbra's sister, Montiel flew right behind, but stopped right near the group., her hair was glowing a blinding white "Ozpin did not tell us we would get reinforcements"

"Well we ain't with this Ozpin fellow, we sorta…crashed here." Xavier answered

"Hm, for now we need to focus on the Nevermore" Montiel spoke "Umbra, see if you can get it's attention. I'll go from behind. You two…assist Umbra."

Damian looked in awe at the Shadow Nevermore "Damn. Never seen one of that before…"

Umbra raised an eyebrow "Huh? Really, you haven't seen a Nevermore?"

Damian shook his head, Umbra was mildly surprised but shook off her thought, there was a more pressing situation at hand. "Ok. You have anything to catch the Nevermore's attention?"

Xavier held a grenade "This might help" he tossed it to Umbra.

Umbra rolled the grenade across her arm and sent it into the air, she saw Montiel light up at the ready. The grenade fell, Umbra wrapped her arm in black energy and blasted the grenade flying towards the Nevermore.

The grenade hit and bounced off its beak, the Nevermore's attention was caught. The Grenade exploded and the flying Grimm staggered, it had no time to react as Montiel hit the Grimm head on, sending the Nevermore and herself to the ground.

Damian aimed his rifle and started firing at the fallen Nevermore. Umbra wrapped herself in black energy and leaped at the Nevermore, delivering a furious hail of punches.

Xavier charged straight into the Nevermore's head and went shoulder first, decimating a brutal amount of plating on it's head. The Nevermore shook itself to it's feet and twirled onto his back, knocking Umbra off of it and shooting dark feathers everywhere.

Damian sprinted away from the feathers, sliding behind a piece of rubble, a feather pierced the rubble, right next to Damian. "Holy shit."

Montiel flew around the Nevermore, shooting energy beams at it. Umbra sprinted back to the Nevermore but was whacked away by it's wing.

"God damn" Damian leaned from his cover, he ran out and started firing at the Nevermore. It lifted it wings and smashed down on him. Damian flipped to the side and dodged the crushing blow. The Spartan held a grenade and jumped onto it's face, he raised his arm and bashed the Nevermore as hard as he could, trying hit through the flesh.

"Move!" Montiel shouted, Damian moved to the side and a beam of light hit the Nevermore, exposing the flesh.

Damian jerked his fist back and jammed the grenade as deep into the Nevemore as he could. The Spartan dived away and stared at the Nevermore, trying to claw out the grenade.

The Grenade exploded and took the head of the Nevermore with it, a show of blood and gore graced the group. Damian quickly raised his arm and activated a hardlight shield. Blood and guts landed on the shield, Damian was mildly disgusted "Oh…ugh, Jesus."

Montiel slowly landed next to Damian "You said you needed help with your airship?"

Damian nodded, still very confused on where they were.

-Forever Fall-

Montiel inspected the Pelican, she had never seen this sort of Airship model. It wasn't Atlas oriented, nor Vale, definitely not Vacuo, nor Mistral looking. It had a symbol, it was an eagle with a globe under it. "Beacon Academy. This is Montiel"

-Beacon Academy-
-Headmaster Ozpin's Office-

Headmaster Ozpin answered the Light sorceress' call "Hello Ms. Montiel. How was your mission?"

"We have successfully eliminated the Shadow Nevermore"

"Ah, well. Make your way to Beacon for the usual report." Ozpin smiled

"But…there is something we found"

"Hmm? What would that be?" Ozpin was intrigued

"There are two people here, they arrived whilst we were fighting the Nevermore and one of them summoned a shield. They had symbols of those you spoke of"

Ozpin was fully attentive "Very well. Can you send them here? I would like to speak to them"

"Of course, they do wish to have their airship fixed as they seemed to have crashed"

"Then let's assist them" Ozpin nodded

Damian walked around the Pelican, looking for any sort of things he could find. He was suddenly surprised by an object, an energy sword handle. "Oh hell" Damian mumbled, he grabbed it and placed it on his hip.

Montiel walked next to the two Spartans "Excuse me, we have arranged to have your ship fixed. Though they do wish to speak to you."

The Spartans looked at the each other, Xavier nodded "Alright, we'll talk"

-Beacon Academy-
-Campus-
-Taquito Tuesday-

Ruby danced in place, she had been waiting for this day all week. Yang happily ate her food, she had added spicy sauce for that blazing flavor.

"I don't think this is good for my diet" Weiss held a taquito with a glyph

"Don't worry Weiss" Blake smiled "I'm sure one taquito won't mess with you"

Weiss still look at her food in disgust "But…it's so greasy and some ingredients seem to be falling out."

Ruby smiled, with some of the taquito ingredients falling out of her mouth "Come on, try them! We got the one with least stuff inside for you!"

Weiss looked at her food and gave a gulp "Ok…" the heiress slowly placed her teeth on the crust, gently biting. The shell crushed under Weiss' teeth, the heiress chomped the piece and started chewing.

Ruby smiled as the heiress slowly ate her taquito "So?"

Weiss swallowed her piece and gave a mildly disgusted look "…Give me more."

Ruby jumped in happiness "YAY!"

Yang saw an airship land in Beacon's helipad, she contained her excitement when she saw the people who emerged "ohmygodit'stheCharnicsisters!"

Ruby snapped her head at where Yang was facing "ohmigofohmigofaaaahhhhhh!"

"Ruby! Ruby! Calm down!" Yang sat her sister down "We gotta look cool."

Ruby and Yang sat comically straight as the sisters, and the two other people that were following them "theyhavecoolgunsohmygod"

"Ugh" Weiss ate her third taquito "Could Montiel's outfit get any more revealing?"

"What? What's wrong with her outfit?" Yang countered

Weiss scoffed "She walking around in that outfit, practically flaunting her body. No wonder she wins in VS Matches, the enemy is too distracted with her butt"

Yang raised an eyebrow in sass "Well, she can wear whatever she wants!" Yang and Weiss started arguing back and forth. Ruby and Blake were happily discussing what taquitos they should get next.

-Ozpin's Office-

Ozpin oversaw the whole school through his office window. He was curious on the two Montiel had told him about, he needed some answers. His elevator sounded, signaling they were here. Glynda Goodwitch, the headmaster's assistant, opened the doors

"Headmaster Ozpin." Montiel greeted

"Ozboss." Umbra waved

Ozpin greeted the two sisters, he then turned his attention to the two newcomers. "I assume you two are the ones that needed their ship fixed?"

Xavier nodded "Yes of course. You also said you wished to speak?"

"Of course. But, Montiel, Umbra. Go and file your report, you are dismissed" Ozpin waved

The two sisters nodded and made their way out

Ozpin sat back on his chair "So, Montiel informed me that you had a shield that had certain markings on it"

Xavier turned to Damian, then back to Ozpin "Yes. We were actually going to ask if you could direct us to the nearest UNSC installation"

Ozpin and Glynda were confused "Excuse me?"

Damian took off his helmet "Do you not have any nearby UNSC installations nearby?"

"We aren't familiar with this UNSC you speak of" Glynda spoke

This didn't help Xavier's confused mental state "What planet is this?"

"This…This is Remnant" Glynda answered "Are you from another world?"

Damian nodded "It would seem that's what's happening here"

Xavier turned back to Ozpin "The symbols on Damian's shield. Why would you want to know about them?"

"Those symbols are…plentiful around this planet. Do you know about them?" Ozpin asked

Xavier thought about it for a moment "We know the civilization that were responsible for them."

Ozpin was incredibly intrigued "Very interesting. DO you happen to have contact with them?"

Xavier shook his head "No. They are long extinct. They only left behind their technology."

Glynda leaned her head in wonder "Is you armor of their technology?"

Damian looked at himself "No no…this is…of the UNSC, we are Spartans. I'm Damian by the way"

"Sergeant Xavier" Xavier introduced himself

Ozpin looked at the two Spartans, they were from whole new world. They knew of the symbols. "Does the UNSC go after and investigate the species' technology?"

"Yes. We investigate the Forerunner tech to help our own" Xavier explained

"I have an offer for you both" Ozpin suddenly spoke "It would seem as if you are without contact with your own. Would you like to have a residence here while the…UNSC finds you?"

"Oh…I uh. We would, love that…we could help out around here if you wish." Xavier nodded "Even with your…very large wildlife problem"

"Ah, those are the Grimm. Here in Beacon we train young minds to face these adversaries" Glynda smiled

"Young?" Damian asked "How young?"

"Don't worry. We don't actually make them fight Grimm at a young age. They start fighting actual Grimm at 17" Ozpin nodded

"This is one interesting place…" Damian mumbled

Glynda checked her scroll "I'm sure you will fit right in."
