Chapter 12

(Y/N) Pov

Quill: "Hey military boy!" I turned to see that I had been so distracted by greeting echo team that I didn't hear the bullhead land behind us. "Everyone else is already on board you comin' or not?" I nodded.

Getting onto the bullhead I took my seat this time with RWBY and Quill to my right and half of echo team to my left, the other half were sitting across from me with team CFVY. We took off, the pilot letting us know that we got about four hours before we reach the drop point. 

To my left I noticed echo team giving each other strange looks and whispering, I was going to ignore it but eventually a member of echo team turned towards me. I took note of the medical cross on his helmet and uniform, the only one in echo team who had one. 

Echo-2: "Excuse me sir but may I ask a question?" The other members of echo team were watching intently, as he looked almost embarrassed to ask.

(Y/N): "I'm not some officer, you don't have to ask for permission to speak." He looked back towards the other members of his team, receiving a few nods and some thumbs up.

Echo-2: "Are you actually the shadow of atlas?" I slumped down and sighed. At this point so many people know there's no point hiding it. 

(Y/N): "Yeah... I am" 

Echo team erupted into cheers upon hearing the news, jumping around, high fiving, fist bumping, and lots of other real bro shit. All the commotion got the attention of the students, who looked at me as if questioning what made them so excited. 

Echo-1: "Well I'll be damned! You lucky bastards get to work with THE SHADOW OF ATLAS!" 

Yang: "Who's the shadow of atlas?" Echo team froze in their tracks

Echo-3: "How do you not know who that is!" He said while pointing at me. 

Yang: "You mean (Y/N)?" I stood up and walked to the center of the bullhead.

(Y/N): "Alright I wanted to keep this a secret but it's clear that at this point you're all gonna learn one way or another." The teams of students listened curiously while echo team leaned forward, clearly excited to hear this story from me directly. "It's story time."

(Y/N) Story Pov

Four years ago... that was when I became the youngest recon specialist... that was when my life changed 

I was sent on, what was supposed to be a normal recon mission, with three veteran recon specialists. While on the bullhead they even joked that taking our weapons would be useless weight since the chances of being engaged were so low. 

I hopped off the bullhead landing in the snow with a thud, I dragged my feet through the snow, taking a few steps in place as well. 

Terra: "What's wrong rookie? Having a little trouble walking now that you got the big boy boots on?" She chuckled and pushed me slightly, causing me to stumble. The other members of the team chuckled, the oldest walking over to me.

Ashur: "I warned you about the snow in Northern Atlas." He reached over and pulled me over to more solid snow, allowing me to stabilize myself. 

(Y/N): "It's not the snow it's this heavy ass armor." I said still walking in place trying to get used to the weight. 

Ashur: "I know the armor sucks but it's not supposed to feel good, it's supposed to keep you alive." He said while knocking on the armor to show off the protection it gives. 

Clay: "Can we get moving? A blizzards supposed to roll through in a few hours." The rest of the team nodded as we began walking towards our objective.
