The plane touches down on a platform near the main hanger. You get off only to be confronted by a familiar pinkette.
"Chel... Y-you're alive." Mine asks tearing up standing in a familiar pink dress and high heels, pumpkin on her back. Before you know what happened she rushes over and kisses you deep.
"Paladin Mine! What are you?"
"You came back to me!" She broke down in sobs. "It's a miracle."
"Excuse me, what is going on?" Gracia asks in shock.

Chelsea
"...?!!"
Chelsea couldn't make a sound as she was kissed, passionately at that, by what was apparently a Mine from another world, leaving her redder than red.
"I... I, um..."
"You came back to me! It's a miracle."
Taken entirely by surprise, Chelsea reflexively hugged her in an attempt to comfort her a bit.
"Excuse me, what is going on?"
The redhead looked at Gracia, then back at Mine.
"...Well... from what little I know of what's going on, I'd say... this is one of my closest friends, Mine, but from this world... or at least another one than mine... and I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say she was... a lot closer with the Chelsea from her world", she said, blushing some more. "Mine-chan? ...I'm sorry, but... I don't think I'm the Chelsea you remember... in fact, I'm quite sure. I'm... from another universe, and I saw the Mine from said other world more or less five days ago..."

Mine froze and pulled away. "I see." She said a bit sadly walking off in shame.

Chelsea
"...I'm... honestly sorry not to be", the redhead said apologetically. "...But... for what it's worth, I'm really glad to see a familiar face again. I may not be the one you remember, but the you from my world, was a very important friend to me", she said gently.

Mine ignores you walking away.
"We should go... The Elder will want to speak with you." Frank said.

Chelsea
Chelsea sighed audibly when the pinkette was gone, rubbing her forehead, feeling a slight migraine coming in.
"...Fantastic... I've managed to piss off another Mine."
"We should go... The Elder will want to speak with you."
The redhead nodded.
"Very well... let's go meet him."

You are taken on a lift to a room where a man in a black coat stands overlooking the window showing the horizon.
"Greetings Miss... My name is Elder Carl Cross... I trust you have many questions." He said sitting down, and offering her a seat.

Chelsea
"My pleasure. My name is Chelsea... and yes, actually", she said, nodding, before sitting down as well. "...Starting with, who are the Brotherhood of Steel, and what sort of world is this? ...I imagine your men have informed you that I claimed to be from another universe... a claim I still affirm."

"We were forged in the fires of the end of our world. We originally scowered the wastelands scouring what tech still surived in hopes of one day rebuilding the world. But the world did rebuild without us, and we failed to work with them... Until he came... The Great Howlet... He slew our leadership... Left us to rebuild under his teachings... Taught us to protect and help the people, not just leave them to their devices. Taught us to tolerate and respect those who were beyond human, accept them into our ranks. We grew, and crossed dimensions themselves... Until we arrived in this world... A land of Danger Beasts, and Teigus... a despotic empire ruling the land... We waged brutal war... Crushed them to pieces, and we have ruled this world unopposed since."

Chelsea
"D-Danger beasts... and Teigu... this is my world? ...I mean... clearly an alternate version of it... but I'm from an alternate version of this universe. I am a Teigu user", Chelsea exclaimed, surprised. "Then... I imagine the Mine from earlier is the one from this world. And that the Chelsea she lost was the me from this world, as well... interesting. Are there other members of Night Raid who have joined you and are still alive?"

"Yes... Knight Sheele, Knight-Captain Leone, and Paladin Akame." He said. "Loyal soldiers, dedicated to keeping the newfound peace."

"Those are... wonderful news to hear", Chelsea said, very much happy to hear that. She folded her arms, nodding. "...Those are all the questions I had... but I imagine that if you asked to meet me in person, you had things to tell me of your own. I'm all ears."

"I'm going to be blunt Miss. Between this and our expansion into yet even more worlds. We are... regrettably spread thin. How would you like to join the Brotherhood?"

Chelsea
The redhead smiled slightly.
"...In all honesty, I was sort of hoping for such an invitation. But before I'd accept, I would need to ask three things. One... I would like to ensure the safety, and possible return home if they so desire, of the woman and child whom your men found with me. They are good friends of mine, and were trying to return before I met them."
She thought for a second before continuing.
"...Aside from this, I would of course like to learn what joining entails, responsibilities as much as the advantages of doing so... and finally, I would like to inform you that I seem to have a... strange problem of uncontrolled dimensional traveling. I have been jumping to a few worlds entirely without support nor control lately, and I'm worried of joining you only to be thrown off in another world without any way to stop it, and I don't want to make promises I can't keep. I'd like to know if that'd be a problem and if you still wish to hire me as a member despite that."

"We can provide lodging and refuge to the civilians." he said. "They will be granted limited free roam of the ship with looking into more sustained lodging at an outpost in the future." He said.
"Joining will entail fighting threats to peace, and prosperity, as well as the retrival of vital technology that may be beneficial in the expansion of the Brotherhood and it's Protectorates. As for dimensional jumps. I will grant you Freelancer Status in such cases in that you will be excused from duty, however should you discover a way back, you will be obligated to return." He said.
