[ This is my latest, as of May 8th, 2025, story. I decide to, for now, maybe, put the other one on hold. I felt like made it too out of there and, now looking back, felt a bit weird. Here is my 2nd attempt at this story that so many have asked and questioned, kinda lol.
Sam Bismarck, a "normal" high-school boy, is transferred from America's Tankery team to the prestigious Sensha-Do in Japan. While at a meeting with the council of Sensha-Do, it is decided that he will go to Saunder's High-school Academy and join both the class and Tankery team.
He is given a month to stay at Saunders, per his contract, and at the end, he has a decision. He can either stay with Saunders until graduation or transfer to a different school of his choice. This gives other schools a chance to send their representatives over to attempt to sway him to their side.
Background on Sam Bismarck.
Sam is a 16 year old boy from Oklahoma. He was born in Hamburg, Germany, but was raised in Oklahoma since he was 1 year old, his mother was American born while his father was German-Russian. Then, he moved to Texas and lived there until moving to California. He jumped around too much due to the fact he was a smart kid. He had a passion for history and joined paintball and airsoft clubs to gain tactics and live out like it was World War 2. At the age of 14, he became a captain for the team before getting interested in Tankery. During all this time, he grew up quickly, his parents often scolded him for "Acting more mature, than he should", and his father even asked him to do something bad.
At the age of 15, Sam joined the California Armored School, which is the American version of Tankery. Quickly proving his skills, exceeding in tactics and as a Tank Commander, his request was accepted.
We follow him, arriving by boat to a dock and him sleeping for the night at a hotel in the Nagasaki Prefecture.
