Bloody Evolution

Chapter 19 Meeting With The General

You were catching up on the events of the day and a few reports that Ozpin has delivered to you when Gabriel burst into your room.

"Have you seen the ships outside?"

"Yes Gabriel, we have a meeting with general Ironwood remember?"

"Yes I remember, but take a lookout of the window!"

Sighing, you look annoyed at his pestering and turned to look outside the window, to be stunned at the ships. Tapping on one of the ships, Aria enlarged the image and put it's specification on the window.

"Atlesian Airship" she said "similar to earth's later 21th century models, laser batteries, point defence systems, no shields, primitive to what we have."

"Now now, Aria" you grinned "don't say that to the general, that'll break his heart"

Then the intercom beeped "(Y/N) would you please step into my office please?"

"Well people, show time" you said getting up from his seat, before responding to Ozpin's call."on our way."

Ozpin and Glynda looks through the window from Ozpin's office. As Two Bullheads fly by as the camera slowly lowers to show ant-like swarms of people on the paths around Beacon.

"Well Ironwood certainly loves bringing his work wherever he travels." Glynda grumbled as you entered into ozpin's office.

"Well, running an academy and a military makes him a busy man." Ozpin mused

"Hey do I have to expect anything? I mean do I look Ok?" Gabriel joked

"Well you tell me" you said struggling in your old uniform "I always hated that they designed it like this"

Facing the doors as they slide open to reveal Ironwood as Ozpin approaches to greet him.

"Ozpin!" General Ironwood greeted cordially

"Hello, General." Ozpin stood to attention

"Please, drop the formalities" the general continued as he shook hands with ozpin "It's been too long. And Glynda! It has certainly been too long since we last met. And...who are You?" He said squinting his eyes at you.

"I'm captain (Y/N) Ronsten of the federation starship Vortex" you introduced "these are my associates "Dr Gabriel Halsey of the Atlantis expedition and commander Aria Planetes, tactical officer."

"Ozpin what are your students doing here, and why are they saying such strange things?"

"Calm down James" Ozpin said pouring himself a cup of tea. "Let me explain."

"No professor, allow me" you said as you replicated a cup of tea in your own hands. "I assume that he briefed you on how I got here?"

"Yes he said two young men landed on the planet by some strange alien spacecraft, wait..." he paused "That was You?"

"Indeed" you said as you sipped your tea

"It was an accident that brought us to this planet." Gabriel said

"And we just recently figured out that it would be better if we stayed here." Aria finished.

"You" he said pointing to Aria "you're a hologram?"

"Yes I am, I assume, penny told you about my brother?"

"Yes, but if he" the general continued "is your brother, why isn't he a hologram."
