Ironwood was sitting in shock at the sight of nick, he had never before seen a metal man but this gives him ideas for future generations of Penny

"This is nick he is a synth and he is a person, not it," Markus said

"Very well I will choose to ignore that for the moment" Ironwood replied "but back to what I was saying

I will assign a specialist to help with training your men along with the CCT towers for communication" he said again

"Again we thank you for your kindness and in return, we shall give protection over smaller settlements," Markus said

"If that is so then perhaps I can offer you a later job at clearing out an entire city that has fallen to the Grimm" ozpin said

"I agree with you that it would be best to wait, possibly increase our forces then take it but right now we need more soldiers," Markus said

"Alright, I guess that concludes the meeting," Glynda said

"Alright folks it was a pleasure to talk but I have an army to talk with," Markus said

All of them stood up and walked out of the office to the aircraft. Markus, nick, and Preston were standing outside as the aircraft took off when the radio freedom host ran to them and said

"Sir we have confirmation of 3 more settlements and the town of Goodneighbor"
" the settlements include starlight drive-in, sanctuary hills, and vault 88 all of which are within a mile of us."

"Perfect, are any in danger," Markus asked

"no, but Hancock wants to speak with you."

"Ok tell them I will send an aircraft to get him," Markus told the host.

Markus walked back to his office and sat at his desk to think of some plans, first he had vault 88 so he had a way to keep civilians safe.

Next, he had starlight drive-in which was turned into an all-purpose factory area to provide armor, assault rifles, ammo, and army fatigues for the uniform.

Sanctuary hills is just another settlement, not much to say about it mostly just a bunch of houses and a farm.

Finally, we have Goodneighbor a place that has been a place for drifters but now that all of the settlements are in a radius of one mile we can build them all together to create a city.

Markus jumped up knocking his table and chairs over and called in his colonials in via loudspeaker.
Once they were all in the office and Markus' table picked up they sat and waited for Markus to speak

Markus stood staring at a large poster on the wall it had 5 squares within a circle and another further out
"We have 3 more settlements in a mile radius of the castle, meaning we can build them all into one city, but we also have vault 88 and bunker hill, within the circle is Goodneighbor, sanctuary hills, starlight drive-in, the castle, and the vault. Outside of the circle is bunker Hill, Altogether we have 8,000 people, not including the minutemen." He paused for a while and started again" what is our building capabilities, Sturges?"

"Well the crew of 30 can start tomorrow because it is getting late but we could build some roads to the drive-in and sanctuary within the day buuuut it is going to be hard on them," Sturges said,

Markus looked down in thought, he really only needed team alpha, bravo, and Charlie for the guard so 15-3000 would be 2,985 people to work

"Alright so if I take 15 for the guard and gives you the rest can I ensure that a road to the other settlements can be built," Markus asked

"Well I don't know what kind of setbacks we will have but I can ensure that the only thing that will stop us is the monsters," Sturges told him with determination

"That's all I can ask, next I would like to discuss a meeting I had with some folks of this world and its history," Markus said

As Markus was explaining the history, the door burst open and Hancock walked in

"Well howdy there general it seems you caught your self up in another predicament, because I don't remember the castle being so close to Goodneighbor." Hancock said in a soft quiet voice

"Just sit and I'll explain everything," Markus said
