"Like I said, fuck off. I took this mission from the Grand Order, you Atlas elitists can't tell me what to do."
"Wha-? And I told you, Atlas government sent us, the military, to deal with the Grimm here! Unrelated personnel shouldn't be here!"
Currently, in an abandoned village covered in snow, a beautiful woman with white haired tied to bun, wearing a tight fitting white long sleeve shirt with white skinny pants, was arguing with another woman.
Said woman has a long red hair with a splash of purple tied to a low ponytail, wearing a some sort of black crop top connected to a black opera gloves, along with black skinny jeans and heels.
They are Winter Schnee, a specialist from Atlas, and Bazett Fraga McRemitz, and EX-rank Servant from Grand Order.
"And I told you, I'm not from Atlas, I don't care about your regulations and whatnot. I took this job, and I'm getting paid, so you better piss off." Said Bazett.
Winter frowned, "You know we can arrest you for obstructing the military."
"Yeah? You can try." Bazett wasn't afraid in the slightest.
Grand Order has a strong political power and significant influence. An EX-rank like Bazett could kill a Councilman in broad daylight and she would only receive a slap on the wrist.
"Tsk." Winter knew this too. "Men, lower down your weapons. It is unwise to have a conflict with someone of her caliber while we're on a mission."
The group of soldiers behind her lowered their guns that was aimed at Bazett, following the orders of their superior.
Bazett smirked at her, much to Winter's ire.
Bazett stared at the cave in front of her. According to the reports, this is where a century-class Geist has been sighted.
Apparently, the Geist has been terrorizing the villages and towns for quite awhile now. Some soldiers has been dispatched to deal with it, but they were all slaughtered.
The Grand Order received a mission to eliminate the Geist, and Bazett was bored enough to accept it.
Who knew that these freaking Atlas Military decided to intervene as well.
"Anyways," Winter stared at Bazett, "Since we're all here, let's just plan on how to quickly eliminate the Grimm "
"Well, you do you. " Bazett turned towards Winter, and gave a two finger salute, "Ciao~", with that, she bolted towards the cave.
"Hey—!" Winter tried to stop her, but it was already too late, "Motherfucker! This is why I don't like worker with other hunters! They don't listen to simple instructions at all!"
She had worked with other hunters and huntresses not from the military before, and all of them just do their own thing without listening to simple commands.
Their actions would often lead to more deaths and making their mission harder than it's supposed to be.
"Shit." She cursed, before sighing and deciding to head there as well. She turned towards the soldiers, "make sure to eliminate every annoyance on the way, that woman and I will fight the Geist and we don't have time to pay attention to them."
"Yes ma'am!" They replied.
Many people said that the military are useless with the hunters doing most of the job, but it couldn't be more wrong.
There aren't that many hunters, and they couldn't be everywhere at the same time. They won't be able to save those frontier villages and towns that were too far from them.
It was the military's job to protect them from the Grimms and Bandits, and if it's something they couldn't handle, then they will hold them off until hunters arrive.
Not to mention when fighting some stronger Grimms, hunters won't be able to focus all their strength in a fight if there are some weaker Grimms also trying to tear them apart.
It is the military's job to eliminate those weaker Grimms to the hunters could focus on their job.
"I will advance first," said Winter as she darted towards the cave.

"Hello again~."
"Hm? Ah, Hi?"
Jaune stared at the red haired young woman in front of him in confusion. He is currently sitting on a bench in a long and wide hallway, eating some chocolate while waiting for his match.
Today is the day of the final match, and he will be facing the famous champion. Something which, Jaune was looking forward to.
According to the rumors, she had managed to win all three championships without taking even a single hit from her opponents. It was because of this that she was given the name 'Invincible Girl'.
"Oh, uh, Hi? And, have we met?" Jaune asked, "what do you mean by 'again'."
"Sorry~," the girl gave a sheepish smile, "force of habit. That's how I usually greet people."
"Oh." Jaune bit a chunk from his chocolate bar, "…so~?"
"Hm?" The girl tilted her head, looking at him with a small smile.
"I mean, what did you call me for?" He asked, "one usually just don't go and greet people if they don't want something."
"Ah," the girl blinked, before she pointed at herself, "you don't …you don't know me?"
"Should I?" Jaune questioned. He rubbed his chin, staring at her intently, "…hmm, now that you mention it, you do look kinda familiar."
"I bet." She smiled.
"Hmmm." Jaune closed his eyes in thought. "Aha!" He snapped his fingers, before pointing at her, "you're the cereal girl!"
"Hm?" The smile on the girl's froze. What did he just say? Cereal girl? Now, she has a lot of nicknames, but she was pretty sure cereal girl was not one of them.
Though, didn't she advertise a certain unhealthy cereal awhile ago? Could it be that? Of all the things he could've known her, it was that?!
"No wonder you look familiar! Your face is on every Pumpkin Pete Cereal Boxes! I really like them, I even won a hoodie after eating fifty box tops of cereals!"
"…Great," she forced a smile, "though that is completely unhealthy."
"No worries, I stopped eating them after getting my hoodie." He shrugs, before smiling at her, "so what do you need me for, cereal girl?"
She sighed, "Pyrrha Nikos," she said, before reaching out her hand for a handshake, "I just wanted to greet my opponent before the fight."
"Oh, I see." He nodded, before staring at her in shock, "Eehh?! Fight? Opponent? You—you're the champion?!"
"Why are you so surprised?" Pyrrha giggled.
"I was not expecting that," he said. "I never thought that a champion like you would be interested on advertising some products."
She gave him a soft smile, "well, we're in need of a lot of cash. But anyway, I wish to have a good match with you. I saw your fights, you are skilled."
"Thank you." Jaune shook her hand, "I'm looking forward to it as well."
Pyrrha grinned before looked over her shoulder and saw a woman in black pointing at her watch. Pyrrha can only sigh, before she turned back to Jaune.
"Well, I'll leave you to yourself then, I need to prepare." She turned her heels and walked away, facing her back to Jaune, "See you in the arena …Jaune."
"Yeah." Jaune watched as Pyrrha walked away followed by a girl in black that seems to be a bodyguard.
His eyes did not leave their figure until they turned to a corner and disappeared.
"Aww~, our Jauney-boy is in love."
"Riiight~? So cute!"
Jaune felt his cheek twitched as he turned his gaze behind him, "Saph! Sakura-nee! Don't even mention that word to me! I am not in love, and will never be! It would just get in the way of my dream of being a hero!"
If a hero comics taught him a thing, it would be that nothing comes good to a hero who found love.
His biological big sister and someone he treats as a big sister were standing behind him, grinning from ear to ear.
How they got behind him, he has no idea.
"I think she's the type of girl who'd only date someone who can beat her, right Sakura?" Said Saphron.
"I don't know. For me, it seems like she's sick and tired of her fame, plastic friends, being put on a pedestal and keeping up a facade that she'd easily fall in love with someone who can treat her like an average girl and like her not because of her fame, but because of who she is."
"…"
"…"
"…Wow," Saphron broke the silence, "that is a balls deep qoute coming from you, I'm impressed."
"Saph!" Jaune frowned at his sister's inappropriate words.
Sakura just smiled at her, "I try my best. Fufufu~,"
"Hehehe~,"
"Fufufu~,"
Jaune watched the two women laughing at themselves before he decided that he had enough.
"That's it, I'm leaving."
With that, he made his exit.
