I arrive at Beacon at roughly 9 pm. The place was silent but that was expected. I landed in Assault Config and parked Haiti back in her central spot. Fuel is still at a good level for now. Ammo is another issue. I tried to keep it in short bursts but sometimes those Gatlings needed to sing. Roughly at 75% but that can change rather fast. I shutdown Hati and exited her in a somewhat melancholic mood. I decided to commence repairs on Hati in the morning. I change clothes and collapse into bed. This is such a tomorrow me problem. 

I wake up feeling a bit better but still a bit listless. I stare up at the ceiling for a bit. Is this my life now? Helping Ozpin with whatever he needs done that requires a lot of firepower? At least he didn't get some random team. They are meant to fight against those Grimm things after all. I'm sure there isn't no real war on this world. Except for the White Fang but I may need the full story on them at a later date. I groan and force myself out of bed. I didn't feel like wearing my gear and grabbed my toolbox at the foot of the bed. 

Y/N: "Alright Hati! Time for Maintenace!"

I first start with whatever damage she received. The damage was light as I expected it to be. A couple dozen of bullets that are still in Hati, but they failed to do anything but just give her a few scars. It took some time to remove all the bullets, but it was quite relaxing. I was about to climb up on one of the Gatlings when the hangar door opens. I turn to see Ozpin with his coffee.

Ozpin: "Good work on that camp Y/N"

Y/N: "It's what I'm paid to do after all Ozpin." I climbed up and sat on the left Gatling. Ozpin found this amusing.

Ozpin: "Pay? Well good thing I brought said payment." he waves a card in his left hand.

Y/N: "Know any places that can get me the supplies I need? I can take care of surface damage, but the rest is needed. Maybe not now but definitely later." I jumped down from the Gatling and walked over to Ozpin.

Ozpin: "Yes, I figured as much. I have someone that may be able to help. He will have conditions but that's between the two of you. But for now, I will accept that deal if your still up for it?" he held out his hand. 

Y/N: "Deal" I shake his hand and now I guess I got an ally in this place. 

Y/N: "So is there anything else you need of me, Ozpin? I can get dressed in 5 and be in the air in 10."

Ozpin: "Not at the moment. But I suggest you at least attend a class or two. Perhaps the history and combat classes will be best suited for you." 

Y/N: *Shudders* "I guess I can do that... I do need to learn more of this world after all. Fine! I'll do it! Don't expect me to attend for long after all!" I was in despair. 

Ozpin: *Laughing at my misery* "Fair enough. Get dress and attend classes already. Or do you need to repair your Viking first?"

Y/N: "My Hati comes first. She has some damage that needs only a quick repair. Gotta clean Hati herself and her guns. Thats going to take a while. May take roughly half a day."

Ozpin: *Nods* "I made an account for you. There is 10,000 Lien in your new account. Hopefully that will last you for some time now. If not, then I can find something that requires some firepower."

Y/N: "Hahaha. Alright then. I best get started then. I'll talk to you later Ozpin."

Ozpin nods with a smile and leaves. Now time to get you clean my Hati!

*Time skips of Y/N Cleaning the bottom of the Viking's Feet*

Note to self. Never step on people again. After finally cleaning Hati, I check the time and its now time for lunch. I hope they have burgers and onion rings. Maybe something spicy. I debated on whether I should get into my flight gear or not. I run my hands through my short H/C hair. To hell with it. I rummage through my new clothes locker and find a yellow shirt and blue shorts. Weird colors to be sure. They are also oddly my sized. Should I be scared? Probably. I find a holster for my pistols and now I am truly scared. WHO IS DOING THIS!?!?
