New Life's
She still couldn't imagine it, not even if she now lay in one of most warm covers, she couldn't even believe that this happened to her, especially not when all of this happened to her just because of her stupid but best decision to look on the internet about the magical alien kingdom...
And now? Look at her now, she was a proud owner of a small apartment, yes it was small, with just one room, living room, kitchen, and bathroom with toilet, but god it was hers, and it was all so NEW AND HERS!!!
Andrea Davidson, always from her fourteen years old age when she ran from her druggie mother and abusive stepdad to the streets, couldn't imagine she would or could have the proud owner of her own living space...
Yes, at the start, she was hopeful that she could somehow wing it and end up with some sugar daddy, after all, she was young, and dare she say beautiful, but the months on the street changed her views on her dreams, that became just that, dreams...
And as a girl without any prospects and stupidly running from law and child services, she did what others like her do and started selling her body as a prostitute, at first, it was hard, but with each client, it became easier, and the money was good too...
But then she gained sight of some gangs and pimps that made it clear that if she didn't work for them, her pretty face would stop by pretty, or worse, she would be taken by them...
So that started her decade of selling her body on the streets, in the clubs, and whatever her 'bosses' wished for her to sell herself...
The quite good time she survived, and she would be proud if not for the sole thing being anything but slavery, still she survived, and that was most important, but that all changed one day when her colleague and friend from the streets that had already two kids came to her with goodbye.
She told Andrea that she was contacted both by some mysterious lady on the internet that offered for her and her children a new life, a good life, Andrea scoffed, what could someone like them who knew just how to sell their bodies do for those in power? But her single-mother friend was always more of the dreamer, and with even little chance for a better life for herself and children, she took it...
From then Andrea didn't hear about her again until her curiosity didn't win ower and she surfed on interned on her old second-hand laptop, where she saw an advertisement on the chance for a better life, and from none other than the alien kingdom that everybody spoke about, well just after the existence of magic...
Andrea, didn't know what it was, but she just couldn't help herself from calling on that number, fully expecting to wait or by moved to automatic messages, she just didn't expect for the call to be immediately accepted and hear one of most beautiful and voices she heard...
"Hello, you called the Solitas Kingdom, Album there to help you..."
And that was how Andrea for hours spoke with the woman who seemed to have infinite patience for mere prostitute that had too many questions...
Another day, Andrea did what was asked for her to do to get to Solitas US embassy, and even with her fully expecting to get busted or laughed of, she still had the little flame of hope, and so she just did what she had done every morning, her morning routine, and jump to her work on streets where she told her current pimp of her taking the new route as the old one was too used, which was completely normal as the pimp gave her nod and told her to him after her work ends...
And so Andrea, without any suspicion from gangs or pimp, took a slow walk to the new embassy where she was immediately accepted...
And it was a close call as Andrea could see some of the gang members demand to the white knights and pointing at her, the white knights just stood there, but each time some gangster did something threatening, the knight head whipped to him, observing him with their blue visors, even Andrea who knew she was protected by them was intimated, no need to say about gangsters who liked to prey on weak, and fear the strong...
And that was her last day on Earth as she was immediately shipped off to the other world, where she went through numerous medical exams and procedures that made her feel young and clean gain...
After that, she spoke with a man who told her of her new life choices, and when she told him of not knowing anything other than whoring off, he didn't sneer or laugh but just nodded with his head and gave her choice.
Either she would work a simple job with minimal pay, with from what she heard was middle-class pay in the US, or she could continue with prostitution, but both options had rules, one common one was that she needed to go into school to get a diploma, school that was fully paid by the kingdom, with all needed materials, all she needed to was to learn what they teach for free...
When she thought about it more, she asked if there were some rules about whoring, and what she learned was surprising and in a good way...
As her instructor told her that all prostitution must be under Solitas management, not private or any free women on streets, but fully managed jobs by the state, that gave their workers, good pay, safety, and free healthcare into what prostitutes, both male and female needed to go every three days, and what shocked Andrea was that prostitution wasn't looked down upon in Solitas, or entire Remnant, she learned that because past near human extinction any activity that supported human numbers was accepted, as such women who sold their bodies had a bigger probability of birthing new life...
Another thing Andrea got to know was that in Solitas any birth control or condom, or abortion, that if prostitute didn't want kid, she could donate him/her to state that would take care of the child and the woman would benefit by free of any responsibility, or she could take care of the child as now with something called free proto-maids service, child's raising became much easier...
What Andrea didn't know, or most people in Solitas, was that proto-maids that were like Album's children or rather copies raised the children in their care with a strong sense of loyalty to the Schnee family and the Solitas Kingdom...
Another thing was that supposedly Andrea could choose to wear a mask as a prostitute, as the young women normally sold their bodies incognito as they studied in school and earned extra money in the meantime, fully expecting to end their jobs once they earn enough and go live a normal life without being recognized as working girl, even if the prostitution wasn't looked down upon, the girl's still didn't wish to make their future partners feel bad or jealous...
And just state workers, doctors, and administrator who was called Album would know her identity, and everyone swore an oath of secrecy, and as long as Andrea would follow the laws, her name would stay clear...
And that was how Andrea found that Solitas was a strange mix of capitalism and socialism, as she got a free apartment, with a free meal, and standard free furniture, and from what she learned if she wanted some extra things, like exotic food, or any other above standard thing, she would need to pay for it, otherwise, everything person needs to live on was free and given by the state that promoted a desire to better themselves and gave them at the same time means to do so, as the schools, academies, or colleagues and the materials for it were free, all the people needed to pay were their time with studying...
Andrea curled into a ball in her new sheets as she, for the first time in after her five-year-old childhood, finally felt happy, and as some strange feelings in her told her, Andrea pulled out the new scroll that too was given to her, and called the number she was given by the woman who changed her life.
"Hello, Andrea, I hope you like your new surroundings?"
"Hey, Album! I love it, did you know that-"
And as such, Andrea started animatedly speaking with a woman who in truth, was an A.I that in truth managed the entire kingdom...

Aegis looked into the mud before him that now hidden a golden seed he with bare hands seeded in...
"Live, live..."
Aegis whisperingly said but stopped as he could feel a warmth and happy aura radiate from the mud before him, Aegis warmly smiled as he gently watered the ground, again feeling a feeling of content and thankfulness...
"Son."
Said a voice behind Aegis as he looked behind himself and smiled at his mother.
"Mother..."
Aegis said as he slowly made his way to the pregnant woman and gently hugged her.
"You already know, don't you?"
"Yes..."
"Good..."
Willow said as she kissed Aegis who returned the kiss gently as his left hand gently pressed Willow back against his chest and his right gently squeezed Willow's plump buttock.
"Are you... Are you alright with it?"
"...Mother, all I can say is what name we should choose for her, nothing else needs to be said... Well, other than I love you, but you already know that, and the little one in you know it too or will know..."
Aegis said with a smile to his mother's blue eyes that seemed to relax after his admission...
"You are in your first month, arent you?"
Aegis said as he pulled his hands back to gently touch Willow's stomach where new life was being created, or rather his first child was being born...
Wait...
Now that Aegis was close enough, he could feel something...
"What, what it is, son?"
Asked Willow who saw her son's concentrated face, fearing something happens, she touched where her son was touching, but felt nothing different, until her son looked at her with a smile that seemed to gain even more warmth...
"Mother, you truly surprise me, to give me not one, but two daughters... Truly, my first children would be twins."
"Twins?!"
"Yes..."
Aegis said as he could feel two souls forming inside, wait, one was forming and one seemed old, still that was normal, it was possible that one of his daughters would by reincarnated soul, as it was standard to by reincarnated without memories...
"Twins..."
"Yes..."
"Son... I love you..."
Willow said with tears in her blue eyes as her body cradled into her's son's who just held her in his strong arms...
"And I love you too mother, no I love you Willow..."
Said Aegis as he kissed the sobbing woman who shed tears of joy...
------------------------
Ozpin eyes widened as he felt something in the very core of magic in the world change, it was like...
Like if new life was born...
No, not new... But old one...
One he remembered to die for the humans and god's shortcomings...
The one that gave them magic...
And something inside Ozpin, or rather Ozma, broke as he shed tears of joy and relief as one of his biggest regrets seemed to come back to life...
---------------
And Ozpin wasn't alone, those who lived in the wilds or were more attuned to nature could feel as if new life was injected into the very nature...
Once again, everyone looked to the place where Schnee mansion lay as they could feel their chest tighten and their spirits roar in renewed vigor...
------------------
Annie looked to the place where Solitas was positioned with an accomplishing smile she observed her work to be almost complete, the ones who opposed her were dead, and the Mistral finally could come out of its self-lockdown as the huntsmen and city guard were under her control...
But there was much more work to be done, much, much more...
"Annie, you did good work, why don't you go to relax for a while. My big brother and your King doesn't have use for people who die from the stroke."
Said voice Annie co-planned the entire coup, as she looked at her scroll where a digital woman could be seen looking at her worriedly...
"Thank you Album, I will take a short break..."
Annie said to Album who nodded...
"In the end, another kingdom fell, just to be reborn as a phoenix from the ashes of corrupted and evil..."
Annie said and felt her body slump on the chair in her headmaster of Haven office as her eyes closed and she, after three days of bloodbath and stress, could finally rest, even if for a short while...
