"These things were to be built yesterday, you shit faces!"

"Yes, sir!"

"And get that fortification ready!"

"Yes, sir!"

Order's were screamed and made inside of already enormous fortification that was just outside of stargate as a battle fortress from white metal, and towering dust crystal towers were made...

"So who will get command in there?"

"Dunno, maybe someone new?"

Spoke two Sentinels who were on stargate guarding duty, even with Album's fork in there that observed and secured everything with her's battle and construction drones, the high command liked to have pair of organics in place, in case a foreign contact was made, and to not spook them that there were just machines...

"How much for betting it would by another woman?"

"No bet, that's losers way..."

The Sentinel tsked as it was already well known that the Schnee family didn't leave important positions in outsides hands...

"Eh, don't get your pants into knot... Still, wonder who it will be, princesses are all in schools, and the older ones already have jobs..."

Sentinel said as he made a motion to rub his chin even if he had a helmet on his head that enclosed his entire head...

"That's above our pay grade, but you heard the rumor about the girl that stalks Winter Schnee?"

"The Royal commander's little pet? What with her?"

"I heard that she looks too similar to the king."

"No. Fucking. Way..."

The Sentinel who said her being pet immediately quieted...

"Hey, you think..."

"Rather not speak about it..."

"Yea... You know rumors..."

"...Yea..."

The two Sentinel's became quiet as they stopped speaking, even if not, they didn't want to stick their heads into what looked like a career-ending shit storm, and making fun of Schnee family was one such way, there were rumors of what happened with such individuals, nobody knew if it was the truth, but as common sense said, rather by quiet than the risk it...

The two Sentinel went back to quietness as they watched the construction drones making traps and fortifications around the stargate there on Fria world that was designed as Solitas Kingdom's ambassador world for future alien contacts...

Behind them were constructed towering walls and towers that would be this world's first line of defenses...

-------------------------------

Moira's hand stalled as she looked at the charts...

"Hmm, Album, why is there so little of test subjects?"

Moira Vahlen asked as she looked at the small number of human/faunus test subject's that were used as living test/experiment subjects...

"Hm, yes, that is because of the lack of death row prisoners, on Remnant alone, the crime of such punishment is becoming very rare, in Solitas, there are just one or two such incidents in a month..."

Album said as Moira looked at her with a raised eyebrow.

"I see, even if joyful news, knowing our society is rising above such petty crimes that would make them into death row, there is still Wizard Earth, no? As I recall, most of our current test subjects are from there."

Moira said as Album made a sigh-like pose.

"Well, the problem is that with the political climate in there, or lack of, we have few contacts that are willing to give us their death row prisoners, especially now that magic is no longer a novelty, both magical and mundane governments are starting to use these death row prisoners as we, in short, they too need them for their experiments to give us them..."

Album said as Moira sighed...

"I see... Still, this is alarming news, we need them to advance our gene and magic knowledge just Morgana and now even Semiramis need at least ten living test subjects in a month, and that's just two of them, our own scientists need more to continue their own experimenting..."

Moira said as she looked at Album, who nodded her head...

"I know, I know, I already asked Sienna and Ilia for help, luckily we could meet some civilization that could give us their prisoners, luckily I had hacked the SGC Earth and took some of their contact's, not much but there are someone advanced civilizations with who we could trade with for their prisoners, it would be a win-win situation for both of us..."

Album said as Moira nodded.

"Thank you, I see you have it in your hands, until then, please contact all of our personnel that we lack a sufficient number of test subjects, and so just the prioritized experiments would be given test subjects..."

"Will do..."

Album said as Moira smiled little and went back to her work, still seeking a way to strengthen the human body without serious cybernetics or magic enchantment mods...

What Moira sought was the perfect balance between magic and technology that could be used by everyday humans/faunus and would advance the Solitas to new heights...

----------------------------------

Weiss, with a grace of a young lady such as she, laid down her pen as she looked with her ice-blue eyes to the side.

"Pray to tell me why are you doing this, no, what are you doing in the first place?"

Weiss asked as she watched Ruby who was being moved down and up as she sat in lotus position on Mordred who was doing push-ups...

"Training? Should try too, princess."

Mordred said with a grin.

"Yes, Weiss! We could totally train together!"

"No, thank you..."

Weiss simply said and continued.

"What I meant was, why aren't you in the gym or outside? Why are you doing this in our room..."

Weiss patiently asked.

"Because like that, I wouldn't be able to get on your nerves!"

Mordred happily said with a smirk as Ruby looked scandalized.

"You said that you didn't want to leave Weiss alone and let her feel lonely!"

Ruby said, making Weiss sigh at the girl's naiveness...

"Oh, totally, totally, but first I need to piss her off, after all, we don't want another incident with her drift into thinking about him, right?"

Mordred said with a grin as Ruby seemed to think and then nod...

"Yea, we need to make Weiss happy even without Aegis there!"

"...Ruby..."

Weiss massaged the bridge of her nose as she shook her head, already getting used to the red-cloaked girl's antics...

"Thank you for your solidarity, but..."

"But nothing that what are friends for!"

Ruby pipped in with a sunshine grin.

"Yea heard that princess, friends."

Mordred said with a grin as her blonde hair covered her green-blue amused eyes...

------------------------

"Hmmm, just who are you..."

Woman in gold-bronze regalia said as she watched through the eyes of her divine animal another incident where a vortex of blue, white, and grey energy opened a rift like a portal from where the men and women in white armor's walked off, from the first incident her's instincts told her it wouldn't by the sole time she would witness such thing, and true to their truth, the last week she witnessed another three such events when these battle trained men and women arrived at there, slew few monster's or even took some alive to this portal...

Her's silver eyes shone with the need to know more, as her's light brown hair fell along her face and her red lips thinned in need to solve this puzzle...

She was Athena, the Goddes of Wisdom and Warfare and many more, and the sole reason she didn't go with this news to her father, the King of Gods Zeus, was because she knew what his first reaction would be, and Athena wanted to research this, and not destroy it...

But the more Athena looked, the more she learned that these men and women, even if lacking divinity, wielded magic and powers unknown to her, for a short while, she thought about going to Hecate for answers, but chose to not to as Athena could see that the magic used by these intruders was foreign even to this world...

But the biggest problem was, the more Athena wanted to share the news, the more her mind wandered to the golden tree that seemed to become more and more active...

What... What had Gaea to do with these mortals? Athena needed to know...

The problem was, Athena couldn't go herself as that would make others interested, but at the same time, Athena couldn't even send one of her children as from what she saw, these mortals, even if lacking in divinity, would be more than enough to raze Camp-half blood without any problem...

Athena didn't like acknowledging weakness, but she knew that she came short when it came to learning more, and as such, Athena chose to speak with her sister...

Maybe Artemis would be luckier in learning more, and with her sister's distaste for men, Athena knew a fight would happen between Artemis and her hunters and these newcomers, a fight in which Athena could measure these mortal's strength, and with Artemis herself being there, Athena didn't need to worry about the lives of her sister's little hunters, as Artemis would protect them...

Now, how should she share the news with her sister without making her go to her father or making Apolo too nosy aboud it...
