It had now been 4 years sense the day of Doom and beacon has successfully restored itself to it's former glory thanks to it's allies and even thou it was controversial at first between citizens and staff. Beacon had once again reopened taking as many applicants for Hunter's and Huntresses in training as possible and so far it has been a major success as if it never stopped completely picking up we're the academy lift off.

As ozpin sat at his desk with a pen in hand and a smile on his face you can tell just by looking at him that it felt great to be back at it again even though it was just paper work but it wasn't really about the paperwork but what was on the paperwork as he looked at all the new applicant's Jaune Arc, Yang Xiao Long, Lie Rin, Nora Valkyrie, Blake Belladonna, and are honored applicants Weiss Schnee and Phyrra Nikos. All ozpin can tell from these applicants is that this year well certainly be interesting.

Ozpin decided that it was time for a brake thou as he picked up his coffee mug and walked off before glynda can catch him. As he walked through vale he noticed the city slowly repairing itself as children ran around playing games like tag or hide and go seek or just running around town looking to discover. how much ozpin envied them and their innocence how they didn't have a care in the world and just had fun being kids. As ozpin walked more through as bakeries, dust stores, grocery stores, book stores, and most important of all Cafe's oh just the thought of it brought made him feel a little queasy on the inside.

But that wasn't all he saw, he saw hurt people with bleeding hearts pained glances in there eye's just reliving what happened that day. And each of every expression they made was another stab to his heart as he knows their pain but how it happened. he can only imagine how much pain they truly are in, but he can also see the chance of hope in there eye's as they slowly rebuild their strength it brought hope to ozpin.

To see that the people of vale refuse to lie down and die that they charge forward even though they are in unimaginable pain and suffering they choose to keep going. It was at this moment that ozpin knew that he was unworthy of leading them.

But he could never bring himself to leave and abandon them as it was them that drew him back it was them that made him stay because he feed off there determination when they cried he cried when they cheered he cheered and when there lost he is lost he couldn't explain the phenomenon but it was something between passion and drive and it only made him want more as if he was a hungry animal.

But as ozpin continued his walk he always found himself back here. back at the monument. the star of doom the very sight of it brought painful images another reminder of his failure. To be brutally honest he hated the structure with a passion but he couldn't ever imagine himself destroying it as if it was holy ground and it didn't matter how many times he destroyed it, it would still stand tall. He turned away from it seeing enough as he walked away.

Hovering over the emerald forest was a fleet of Atleasian soldiers with the head master of Atlas academy general James Ironwood. James was coming to visit beacon to see how they were coming along specially after what has happened he had just come from visiting vacuo and decided to take the opportunity to visit his friend all he hoped was that ozpin was ok and that the man he knew was still the same. As Ironwood was soon dragged out of his thought as his bullhead was soon meet by a flying beowolf as it crashed right through the window of the pilots  with the corps of the beowolf crushing the pilots bodies sending the bullhead out of control  as the bullhead was crash landing ironwood caught the appearance of green armor and a chain gun in hand. As the bullhead hit the ground ironwood was able to escape last minute but as Ironwood looked up at the sky he saw bullets speeding through his fleet of bullheads and one by one they were destroyed.

As the Doom Slayer fired away with his chain gun all he saw were a barrage of Cacodemons that needed exterminating as the chain gun pods opened up as all the barrels fired away with bullet planting inside the bodies of the pilots and all passengers in side but even before any of the bullheads crash landed they all blew up in the sky leaving behind black smoke and ashes.

As ironwood picked up his pistol getting into a firing position as he stood ready for a fight he can only point toward the direction of the peak we're the man in green stood but in James surprise he heard breathing heavy breathing right behind him as he turned to the green armored man with a stoic appearance ironwood decided that he wouldn't back down keeping his pistol locked and loaded .

But to the Doom Slayer all he can do was look at Ironwood with fascination as it had been years no decades sense he last saw a human that wasn't dead or a corpse it astounded him and then the question formed in his head we're was he.

As Ironwood was about to pull the trigger his attention was soon grabbed by a swarm of beowolf Grimm surrounding both general ironwood and the Doom Slayer.
As the first Grimm ran to try to get the first strike he was soon meet by the generals pistol down it's throat as James pulled the trigger killing it and right from there the Doom Slayer did what he always had done, he raised hell. As the both general ironwood and the Doom Slayer killed them all and from that point on a friendship was born. a friendship between a Hunter and a Slayer
