Theme #1 [Introduction]
"So this is the famous ship? I don't see anything special," a man commented as he walk through the hallways of the Archangel with Murrue. Murrue gritted her teeth. This guy is a jerk, that's for sure. "Yes, but this ship did a lot for us during the two wars," she tried to calmly reply, but it's difficult. How could she stand a guy, who insults the ship she know and could talk to?
"Must be luck that this nearly crew-less ship survived the two wars," the guy commented offhandedly. Either this guy didn't do his homework, or he is just saying that to annoy Murrue. Everyone knows that Archagel was built for a small crew! And after the first war, they upgraded her so she could be managed with a smaller number of crew. 'And not to mention, Archangel probably knows how to pilot herself,' Murrue thought with an annoyed expression. She would really love to strangle this guy here and now. 'But no,' Murrue rolled her eyes, 'He is here for inspections. To check for a reason I am not aware of. Do Athrun and Cagalli even know about this?'
The pair is now working as the chief representatives of Orb, a title shared by both of them after their marriage. 'I wonder, did somone put this guy here just to make fun of us?' Murrue grumbled in her head as she watched the guy criticized the color of the walls. Just what does the color of the walls have anything to do with the effectiveness of the ship?
"Lead me to the (1)canteen, for inspection of course," the man ordered her. Murrue repressed her anger, almost unsuccessfully, as she lead that no-good jerk to the canteen.
"And remember that time when Neumann made me do a barrel roll? I had a (2)processor-ache there!" Archangel said, earning chuckles from those sitting around her. They are in the canteen, taking a break, and Archangel gladly joined them. She is lucky that they installed something that allowed her hologram to appear all over the ship. They are all having fun listening to their stories in the two wars, only told by a perspective that no one thought possible.
"Oh yes, I remembered that," Miriallia laughed, "Thank goodness it was in space, or else everything would have been a chaos!" Kira pouted beside her. Miriallia and Kira are wearing their civillan clothing, each with their own reason. Kira was taking a day off from his (3)Zaft duties to visit them, and Miriallia was just in the area, so she decided to join them. "I never seem to be inside the ship when you guys are doing that sort of stunt!" he grumbled with a playful twinkle in his eyes. He was joking, and they all knew it. "You are always out there to play hero after all, both of you," his sister teased him, laughing.
Cagalli is sitting beside Miriallia, with her military uniform. Apparently, she decided that today is a good day to work at something that is not in her office, such as checking the military section of the country. Across the table is Athrun, wearing a similar outfit to Cagalli, except the male version. He, decided to tag along with his wife, rather thankful that she is not cooping both of them up in the parliament.
Archangel herself sat on the head of the table. She was just about to continue her story when the door slide open, admitting Murrue and another man in.
Immediately, silence filled the air.
"Mother Murrue?" Archangel asked with a confused voice, "Are we suppose to be expecting someone today?" Quickly and silently, Archangel checked her database and opened all her cameras, which she had turned off earlier. She scanned herself throughly, checking for intruders and such, in the same time checking for any special events, appointments or similar stuff.
"No," Murrue forced a smile, "Guys, this is an inspector, who is here for a surprise check up." Cagalli slammed her hands on the table, growling. "I've never heard of this! How come I am not notified?" she asked in a menacing voice. "It's a surprise check up, hime-sama," the man said, keeping his professional look, but looking rather taken back as well, "Please, allow me to do my job." Cagalli looked annoyed, but kept her cool, sitting down with a 'mmph.' Athrun placed his hand on her shoulder, giving her a reassuring smile.
"What are civilians doing here?" the man asked, looking at Archangel, Miriallia and Kira. He looked especially at Archangel, giving her a glare, as if hoping to scare her. "I heard this one," he pointed at her, "calling you," pointed at Murrue, "Her mother. Is she your daughter?" Murrue don't know whether to laugh or yell at him. The others seemed to have the same thoughts.
"I wouldn't anger her if I were you," Kira pointed out, a snicker laced in his voice. "Please keep quiet, civilian," the man answered smoothly, "You shouldn't be here in the first place." Kira rolled his eyes. "It's been such a long time since I was called a civilian," he whispered to Athrun, Cagalli and Miriallia. Athrun and Cagalli chuckled, while Miriallia let out an unladylike snort, laughing quietly as well.
"She is my daughter, in many ways," Murrue replied as calmly as possible. Gosh, this guy knows how to push all of her buttons! The man raised his eyebrows. "She is not allowed in here then," the man started lecturing, "and all this civilians! What are they doing inside a warship? They should never see the horror of it!"
Kira and Athrun promptly rolled their eyes. "The horror of it," Kira mimicked, making some actions with his hands, putting a little spookiness into his tone. Athrun laught at his friend's antics.
"This is stupid," Miriallia whispered to Cagalli, "Wait till he founds out who we are, he will probably faint." The princess chuckled, obviously amused by the idea of it. Murrue, who caught it, snickered a little at the thought. Unfortunately, the man seems to had caught it too. "Now look here young lady, whatever status you have, you still have no right to be inside this warship!" he said, "(4)Mrs. La Flaga, how lenient you have been! This is outrageous!"
Murrue sighed. "Perhaps, you should know who they are, first," she suggested, "although it would be a nice warning that you don't faint at the last introduction." The man gave her a smug look, saying, "There is nothing in the world that could take me by surprise anymore."
"Very well," Murrue nodded, "This is Miriallia Haww. She is our communication officer, and currently taking a break." The man nodded, slightly miffed at her age. Miriallia gave him a glare. Murrue quickly moved on to Kira. "This is Kira Yamato, he is a guest of ours from Zaft today." Kira waved his hand as a greeting, although his expression told everyone in the room he is not pleased to meet this guy.
"So?" The man interrupted, "Nothing special." Murrue shook her head, pointing to Archangel. "I haven't introduced her yet," she said, "This one is special, her existence will be revealed slowly to our military force starting from next week." The man look horrified for some reason. "You are going to show your innocent daughter the military base?" he protested, "What a bad mother."
Archangel frowned. Inside her processor, she is thinking of ways to make fun of this guy, who insulted her 'mother'.
"No, she is really special," Murrue insisted, "She is the ship herself. Her name is Archangel, and what you see now is just her hologram." The man look like he had been struck by a lightning. "There is no technology for this yet," he said with a laugh, brushing it off, "Right? She must just be a little girl. Hmm?" he put out his hand for Archangel to shake with. At that very moment, Archangel decided on an idea.
Archangel passed her hand through his easily, chuckling at his pale face. "Nice to meet you," she said with a sweet voice, "My name is Archangel."
The man promptly fainted.
Latias 24 ;; *sigh* I thought it would be fun to try a 100 themes challenge, with the ships and their holograms in it. I thought it would be a good way to expand their personality. I won't be limiting myself to the GSD characters only, I might include some from Astray and so on, but under the Seed universe. I also need a better title. Any suggestions?
Now ...
(1) The room where they ate their food in the Archangel. I really don't know what it is called.
(2) A ship's version of headache
(3) At the end of Gundam Seed Special Edition, Kira is seen to be wearing the white Zaft uniform, working beside Lacus.
(4) In this chapter, Murrue is already married to Mwu.
