Manfred: So. Let me get this straight, practically half of us here fought in the Great War, or World War 1, only for another war to breakout?
Lauri: Sums things up.
Alvin: So... what year are we all from?
Manfred: I'm from 1916.
Alvin: 1964 over here.
Thomas: 1935.
Albert: 1939 apparently a few months before WW2 starts.
Simo: 1945 at the end of WW2.
Audie: 1971, is the year I died before ending up here.
Leslie: 1982 respectfully.
Adrian: 1963.
Francis: 1952.
Karel: 1971.
Milunka: 1918.
Lauri: 1965 in Vietnam, or French Indochina for most of you guys.
Adrian sighed as everyone felt the air bus stop as some of them stumbled around.
Milunka: I am still not used to these vehicles... and speaking English...
Manfred: You and me both...
Francis: Let's get out.
The 12 of them started to exit the air bus, taking in the view.
Manfred: Mein Gott... (My God...)
Audie: Is this a castle...?
Karel: It seems to.
Adrian: Impressive, but I do still prefer Buckingham.
Thomas: Mhm, I would say the same.
Suddenly in front of the group a small explosion happened essentially triggering a few... issues.
Audie: Get down!
Francis: Incoming German assault!
Audie, Francis, Thomas and a few others then jumped to the ground taking up a position as they looked around, panicking as they didn't have a weapon except those who didn't panic, as those who didn't panic looked worried while other students looked at the people in confusion.
Leslie: Shit, I know what's going on.
Adrian: Shell shock?
Leslie: Correct, or in 1980, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder.
Milunka: Is there anyway to help?
Leslie: Just try and calm them down.
Milunka: If you suggest...
After a 'few' minutes calming them down they continued their walk to what seemed to be the main hall.
The team then opened the doors widely gaining the attention of almost everyone, seeing them all in their respective military uniforms as they made their way to the corner of the room.
Manfred: So many kids...
Karel: To be fair, 3 of you guys are technically under age now.
Lauri: Please, do not remind me.
Audie: It sucks.
Francis: We should probably find that Ozpin guy you were talking abou-
???: Hey! Manfred!
The 12 of them turned to see a girl around Manfred's and Audie's age, run up to them as a blond girl who seemed to be about 2 years older follow.
Manfred: Ah, hello again Ruby.
Ruby: Hello!
Alvin: You know her?
Manfred: Ja, I met her when I first arrived.
Ruby: So who's... all of your friends...
???: Most of them seem older.
Karel: Is that a problem miss?
???: No, no. The names Yang by the way.
Karel: Karel Janousek.
Yang: Nice to meet you!
Karel nodded as Simo spotted something.
Simo: Girl coming in, 2 o' clock.
The 12 looked to a girl dressed in all white as she stomped her way over with Ruby and Yang looking over a little after.
Weiss: You!
Ruby then jumped into Yang's arms.
Ruby: Oh, God, it's happening again!
Weiss: You're lucky we weren't blown off the side of the cliff!
Yang: Oh my God, you really exploded.
Leslie: ... God damnit.
Ruby: It was an accident. It was an accident!
Weiss then held a pamphlet , handing it to Ruby.
Ruby: What's this?
Weiss: The Schnee Dust Company is not responsible for any injuries or damages sustained while operating a Schnee Dust Company product. Although not mandatory, the Schnee Family highly encourages their customers to read and familiarize themselves with this easy to follow guide to Dust applications and practices in the field.
Thomas: *Sigh* It's these types of people.
Weiss: These types?! Do you know who I am?!
Thomas: No.
Weiss looked shocked at the immediate response.
Manfred: Aren't you a noble?
The 3 then looked to Thomas in shock.
Thomas: No, that's Adrian.
They then looked to the man with a small moustache, which seemed to keep growing.
Adrian: Not exactly. We have connections, but I am not an entire noble.
Lauri: Can we please, find this Ozpin guy!
The 14 of them looked to Lauri as he had his hands in the air.
Milunka: Right, right. Let's move.
The 12 of them started to walk away and towards what seemed to be a person in charge, according to Manfred.
Ruby: Wait!
Manfred: Go ahead, I'll see what she wants.
Adrian: Hm.
They then walked away as Manfred turn around.
Manfred: Yes Ruby?
Ruby: Why are you looking for the headmaster?!
Manfred: We need to finish our conversation.
Manfred then turned away walking off.
Weiss: Such disrespect.
Timeskip
After talking with Glynda and having to wait inside Ozpin's office. The elevators doors opened again as out walked the white haired man with his cane.
Manfred: Ozpin.
Ozpin: Hello again, Manfred. And I see we have some new faces, presumably from Earth.
Adrian: Yes, you would be correct.
Ozpin then took a seat at his desk as Adrian stood up approaching him.
Ozpin: So, what be your names?
Adrian: I am Lieutenant General Adrian Carton de Wiart.
Ozpin: Oh... a General...
Adrian: Yes, but I am not one anymore, as I am in this world now.
Ozpin: So it would seem.
Glynda: Introductions would be under way, yes?
Alvin: Right, I'm Sergeant Alvin York.
Thomas: Colonel Thomas Edward or T.E Lawrence.
Albert: Second Class Private Albert Severin Roche.
Glynda: What about you four?
Glynda then pointed to Simo, Audie, and Leslie.
Simo: Second Lieutenant Simo Hayha.
Audie: First Lieutenant Audie Murphy.
Leslie: Corporal Leslie Allen.
Glynda then added their information to the database as she pointed to the last group.
Glynda: And you rest?
Francis: Warrant Officer Francis Pegahmagabow.
Glynda: Ah... can you spell that?
Francis: Hm.
Timeskip
Glynda and Francis discussed for a bit about Francis's name and origin as they continued to add their information to the database.
Karel: Air Marshal Karel Janousek.
Milunka: Sergeant Milunka Savic.
Lauri: Captain Lauri Allan Torni.
Glynda then finished adding their names to the database.
Glynda: Alright ages?
Karel: We seem to have aged by a even amount, as I was 51 before coming here, but judging by my looks, I am 21 now.
Glynda: Interesting...
Glynda then kept talking with everyone else about their information as Adrian kept talking to Ozpin.
Ozpin: I could have parachutes to you all in your personal dorms tomorrow morning before initiation.
Adrian: Good, since we just tried to unlock my Aura to no avail, we can assume we won't survive what you are planning.
Ozpin: Yes... thinking it over, may I see your firearm?
Adrian: Hm? Why so?
Ozpin: I assume you all have limited ammunition due to our weapon systems being different?
Adrian: That would be correct? But why does that matter?
Ozpin: About a year ago, massive crates had landed near the student dorms. Of course I had my staff, search and study them.
Adrian then started to understand as he slung his Bren onto the desk, removing the top magazine showing it to Ozpin.
Ozpin: As I suspected, those crates were your ammunition.
Adrian: So, this was all planned.
Ozpin: It would seem so.
Adrian: Was there anything else in the crates? And how many were there?
Ozpin: Yes, there was about 20 crates.
Adrian: So, we're staying here indefinitely.
Ozpin: Sadly so. As for what was in the crates, about 8 of them were filled to the top with ammunition.
Adrian: ...What about the other 12?
Ozpin: Uniforms and such. We had found some medals too.
Adrian: Huh, so they brought our personal belongings here too.
Ozpin: Yes, I believe we still have those crates in storage.
Adrian: Does anybody else have a piece of the ammunition?
Ozpin: Possibly, students could have picked some pieces before any of the staff could've arrived.
Adrian: Hm. Let's just home they didn't pick at our personal belongings, ammunition, or even the weapons, the weapons and ammo would be slightly ok, but you cannot replace items with sentimental value.
Ozpin: Quite.
Adrian: So that was all?
Ozpin: Not exactly.
Adrian: Hm? What do you mean?
Ozpin: There was a smaller crate, a crate that contained scrolls, but not our typical scrolls.
Adrian: Scrolls?
Ozpin: That'll be explained later.
Adrian: Alright, but what was on these scrolls?
Ozpin: Videos, more specifically, songs.
Adrian: So what does that have to do with us?
Ozpin: It seems in the future, your achievements are recognized and these songs covers these.
Adrian looked surprised at the fact but kept a straight look on his face.
Adrian: Fascinating, so 12 songs, all based off of our achievements.
Ozpin: So it seemed.
Adrian: Hm. Now what?
Ozpin: I'll have Professor Goodwitch lead you all to your dorms, it is up to you and the men to decide if you take initiation.
Adrian: Of course.
Ozpin smiled as he shouted to Glynda.
Ozpin: Glynda.
Glynda then looked up from the conversation she was engulfed in with Karel about air combat and such as the others got used to their younger bodies once again.
Glynda: Yes Ozpin?
Ozpin: Please lead these men to their dorm and locker room.
Glynda: Of course, follow me gentlemen, miss Savic.
The 6 of them then got in the elevator going down, before waiting for the next 7 to come down as Ozpin sighed.
Ozpin: This, is the last thing I have been suspecting.
Timeskip
The 3 teams were currently setting in as Glynda brought the crates over with the help of Oobleck and Port while she used her Semblance, delivering the crates by the name tags that were seen on the crates.
Audie: Thank you ma'am.
Glynda: Of course, no problem.
Audie then used his e-tool to crack the top off the crate as he took the top off.
Audie: Why is that the first thing on top?
Leslie: What is it?
Audie then took what he saw out, what was it? It was his U.S. Army khaki Class A tropical.
Adrian: A dress uniform.
Simo: If a dress uniform is there-
Audie: Which means my... medals.
Audie then looked into the crate seeing not much, all he could find was his weapons, the book he wrote, alongside a recording of the movie he stared him.
Leslie: That's... do you own anything?
Audie: I came from an... interesting, family.
Simo: That explains a few things...
Meanwhile in another room Lauri was looking side his crate, pulling out all three uniforms inside.
Lauri: They really kept track of me...
Karel: What do you-
Karel then spotted the SS insignia on the collar as he stopped himself from attacking Lauri knowing he was a part of the Finnish Volunteer Battalion.
Francis: Stylish uniform.
Milunka: I concur.
In the last room Manfred was cleaning his Luger as Thomas was figuring out how he would do the initiation considering how he had two pistols an Arabian Jambiya and his Enfield.
Alvin and Albert however were trying to learn more of the world, reading some books.
And that's the end of this chapter, well, I'm off to bed because I have to get up super early tomorrow. Next chapter is going to be the US chapter and always remember!
LONG LIVE THE MOTHERLAND!
