Ooroai's Elites

Arrival and Revival

(Minerva POV)

Things have been, well things this month. First me an my crew had to fly out with Griffin all the way to Japan where we then meet our new teammates. And well here we are now in the back of an American Chinnok with a Globemaster behind us.

To think all of this came from a call nearly 2 months ago from an old ally of our old school Oorai's girls academy. From what the admins told us they were starting thier tankery club back up. When I asked why they told me that they had made a bet that if their team won the tournament then their school ship wouldn't be shut down and scrapped.

Some might ask why would my school and several others help them to me and my crew it is simply paying an old debt long forgotten until now. Apparently Ooroai helped save my old school from the same fate decades ago.

"Everyone we are approaching the Ooroai school ship. Prepare from drop in 3 minutes." And with that said me and my crew stood up along side the others we shared the chinook ride with. And then we waited for the green light for the drop.

(Yukari POV)

I was standing around outside of the garage with the rest of my crew, Mako, Saori, Hana, and Miho Nishizumui herself. However me being the tankery officinado of the team outside of Miho I noticed something critical.

We lack numbers. We have five tanks to go against at least fifteen in the first round. So decide if to point this out I said something.

"Umm Miho, I noticed something," I said, as I said her name Miss Nishizumi turned around to face me.

"What is it Yukari?" She asked. I took the liberty of point to the garage and saying what I had on my mind.

"Miss Nishizumi we only have five tanks to go against at least fifteen in the first round. How are we even supposed to get through the first round!?" I yelled what I said in a panic, but apparently I was overheard by the Student Council. The president then started talking.

"Don't worry Yukari, we should be getting some 'reinforcements' so to speak soon, in fact I think I hear them now." As she said that I heard the distinct sound of helicopter roters getting nearer. I looked toward the sound like most of the other club, and what I found amazed me. In the sky above us I saw a Chinook cargo helicopter flying in, I then noticed that the back ramp was open.

Then what I could only describe as mad women began jumping out of the damn thing. I counted around 40 jumping out of the Chinook, around a 1000 meters up above the surface of the ship they opened their parachutes. After about another 4 minutes they had all hit the surface of the ship and had gotten the parachutes off.

Then I noticed something else sounding more like jet engines than more rotors, following where the sound was once more I saw 2 Globemasters closing in quick to the open area near the garages. And from their cargo holds came things I would love looking at.

More Tanks that rained from the sky like it was Christmas morning. As the tanks made shipfall I made a run for the tanks to see what they were and to my surprise these tanks were amazing, I saw an ARL 44, a M18 Hellcat, an ISU-152, a Panther 2 of all things, a Sherman Firefly, a KV of some sort, an M5 Stuart and then the two piece of tankery legend, An E-75, and a Jagpanzer variant of an E100.

Seeing this I increased my pace to a sprint tearing pass the girls that had paradropped onto the ship to inspect the tanks. I ran pass several of the tanks coming up the ARL 44 and to my surprise there were paintings on the chassis. A pair of eagle eyes and a dark brown in an almost fur like paint. Then I heard someone begin talking behind me.

"Should I remove her from the tank Dragon?" The voice asked it had a French touch in how she sounded and a polish sounding voice responded.

"There's no need for that Vampire, and from what I see she's looking at the tank out of excitement and curiosity." After that was said I heard footsteps coming up behind me spinning around I was meet with a girl about my age maybe a year older and at least 20 cm taller than me looking up I saw her eyes and their hazelnut coloration they had a hint of joy in them as well she then began talking once more. "Are you interested in our tank miss?" I mearly nodded as she was intimidating to look at, to this she began laughing.

After her laughing fit she asked me a question, "Say what is your name, after all might as well know who my team mates are." With that I introduced myself.

"Oh I am Yukari Akiyama, nice to meet you." With that she then introduced herself and the four others standing behind her.

"I am Minerva Scarlet, the two giants are Maria and Lousine Ariel, then there's Amelia Farron and Sommer Braun. Together we crew the beast behind you." Taking a look behind me once more to look at the tank I fully realized that I was standing in front of an ARL 44 a tank that only had 60 actually made for the military.

"To think I'm standing infront of replica of a tank that only had 60 made." After I sad that the one I assume to be Lousine began laughing, with a confused look on my face I asked her something, "Why are you laughing?" I asked and she responded after she finished laughing.

"Oh dear me, but no Griffin is something special she is an original make ARL 44 though she is fitted and modded with a still legal turret and gun, she's an old girl but she still works her wonder." After she said that I had a realization.

This year just got even more crazy.
