As two professors what just happened, Glynda continued her earlier statement. "Should we inform General Ironwood?"

"No." Ozpin said, "That would have consequences on an alarming scale, and we know what happened to Doctor White when that old general was in charge."

Glynda winced at that, Doctor Frederick White was a renowned scientist, able to make plans and blueprints out of thin air because of his semblance, Think tank. He was also the first Remnant human to join in a White Fang rally when Ghira was in charge, stated that "We must let go of old prejudices, of discriminatory, to fight against a common enemy, the Grimm."

He was the first human that the Faunus to ever respect and many scientists, including Doctors Arthur Watts and Pietro Polendina were his students. However, the general at the time before James Ironwood and after Miho Nishizumi, was General Grey Hopper.

Who was against any new ideas in the military and was very strict on not only the military itself, but also on the researchers, arrested White for 'Treason' against Atlas, and many of his blueprints were destroyed. However when the Bullhead was on his way to trial it exploded out of midair. Doctor White's body was never recovered, and many assumed that he has incinerated during the crash, General Hopper however, was eustatic that the man died, stating that, "He was a plague that needed to be destroyed."

After Dr. White's death there were immediate backlash of it. First Lieutenant Ironwood, Miho, Oorai, and the Atlas council removed General Hopper from Atlas high command, but there was a problem, because of Hopper's strict rules on the military, a lot of promising recruits dropped, forcing Atlas to use the knights. Ironwood would dismiss the ideas of most scientists, for the fear of their fate will become like White.

When the White Fang heard the news of White's death. Ghira, the former leader of the White Fang step down to grieve for the only few of humans in Atlas to help them. Sienna Khan, who took up as the new leader, was also grieving and planned to only attack those who had wrong not only them, but also the few humans that help them. Recently, Sienna's branch in Menagerie is pulling back on their attacks.

Ozpin and the staff of Beacon Academy suffered the loss as well, but most importantly Ozpin. Who lost a good friend. Before his death, Dr. White wanted to speak with him privately. When he accepted the call, he was shocked to find that he knew about Salem.

White told Ozpin that because of the side effect of his semblance, not only did it make him smart, but also knew the entire history of a person just by looking at them. He did agree with Oz though that Salem needed to be stop and he agree to join in his Inner Circle. When ask about how to deal with her, he made a gas that affects the Grimm, but leaves humans and Faunus unharmed called Nova 6. But like many projects, it was destroyed by Hopper's raid.

"Agreed," Glynda stated. "but what would we do to them?" She mentions the people.

"Keep an eye out for now. Even if they save a hundred villages, doesn't mean they have their goals."

"Of course, Ozpin." As Glynda left the tower to greet the new students, Ozpin was sitting on the chair thinking of about the loss of the good Doctor.

He sighed, "White, let's just hope you are in a good place old friend." Ozpin said sadly before following Glynda down with the evaluator to begin his speech.

-Meanwhile in an underground lab in Ukraine

An oldish looking scientist looks at an old photo of his friends and reliving the times that had passed. "Good Morning, Doctor White." A Vampire named Eve said to him as she enters the room.

"Morning Dr. Eve." Doctor Frederick White said.

"Still reliving the times?" She asked seeing the photo in the man's hand.
