SCP-4902 The Gate (Scp Foundation Mythos x Gate - Jietai Kare no Chi nite, Kaku)

Chapter 8: Start of a New Era

Continuing to follow the two men, they arrived at the front of the convoy and were met with yet another strange sight, a horseless carriage that let out a low rumble as it lightly shook, and nearly invisible smoke coming out from a tube on the back of the vehicle. They are told to stay as the two otherworlders disappear around the front of it, Kato looks back at Lelei. "What do these otherworlders want!?" The master asked his pupil, knowing that she's the brighter one and might have pieced it all together.

Lelei looked back at Kato and answered. "Perhaps they detected something within us, remember the beeping device?" Kato wondered, looking up at the sky stroking his beard before remembering with an audible 'Oh!' "That might be the reason, perhaps our magic is a threat to them."

"What do we do Lieutenant? We have three reality bends on our hands!" Josh complained to his CO outside of the passenger seat with Larry standing beside him, confirming all the young corporal is saying with simple nods and shrugs, the old man decided to let the young Corporal have a little fun.

Richard sighed and leaned back in his seat, looking down the road. "Well it's better than actual scips, but… yeah, I have no idea what to do as well" He looked to the back of the humvee, several children hopping on and an elderly woman as well. Richard pulls down his mask to give them a friendly smile and a nod, before pulling them back up and talking back to Josh. "But I bet Bright's gonna love them, and I mean not in that way" He clarified.

Josh held in his laugh, Larry karate chopped the young Corporal's head as punishment for laughing at such a dumb joke. Josh let out a sarcastic, 'owiee' because of the chop, it doesn't hurt but a little bit of joking around doesn't hurt their sanity right?

He opens the door and steps out onto the dirt once again. "Bring them over to me, I'll have a talk with them" Josh saluted and took the order to heart, grinning from side to side like a madman before walking back around the back of the humvee to the two mages. Josh is quite flabbergasted when he hears the word 'sorcerers', looks like his suspicions were true. It does wake his inner child being very excited to learn about actual magic, but he needs to hold the urge of coming out of the closet and asking the mages a million questions.

Thinking about it, it is a rare opportunity. Most of the scips and reality benders he met are either trying to kill him or not wanting to spill the beans, and plenty doesn't even know how or why their powers and bodies are like that or how it came into being. But now? With actual two mages that are probably willing to share their knowledge, he wants to know how everything works, maybe he'll even be a mage himself and cast a no-horny spell on Bright, but that dream might be impossible to achieve.

Giggling to himself as he walked back to the mages, he cleared his throat as deep as he could, trying to act professionally and somewhat intimidating while gesturing for them to walk to the front of the Humvee. "Our leader wants to speak with you, come," He says with a wave, gesturing to the two sorcerers to follow and they began walking back to the front of the Humvee.

Josh introduced Lelei and Kato to Richard as he turned around to face them, Richard waved Josh off to go do something else. "Go help Cassie, Josh." Josh nodded and walked off, Richard then looked at Larry. "You too Sarge." And he walked past the three people to help with other things in the convoy. Richard is finally in front of the two presumed sorcerers, face-to-face beside the Humvee. Taking the red translation book from his pouch, he opens it just as a backup in case he forgets words or wants to check whether what he just said is right or not. He clears his throat and begins to speak. "My name is First Lieutenant Richard Vulcan, the leader of the group of men and women you foresaw, tell me and explain what you do" Richard spoke slowly and steadily, not wanting to go too fast and mess up a word.
