"We have to capture one of those mobile suits and the pilot Captain. We need to know more about them." A voice said from the communicator in Captain Biggs hand.
"I understand Sir, but I may have to use some more⦠Unsavory methods to get the information you need." He replied narrowing his dark eyes and flicking his ebony hair out of his face.
"I don't care how you do it, just get it done, we need to get to them before the UN does."
"Understood." Biggs clicked his communicator closed and turned to the red haired man next to him. "Any means necessary Al Saachez." A devilish grin spread across the face of the red haired man. He gave a small bow and left. "I have just the pilot in mind."
Meanwhile a small group of Pilots sit aboard the Ptolemaios discussing how to proceed with the armed interventions in the Middle East. "I can go and do reconnaissance." said a young man with dark hair and red eyes. "Unfortunately I think you are our only option Setsuna, anyone else would stick out too much, but that also means you will be without back up." Ms. Sumeragi sighed. There was just no choice the fastest way to end the conflict in the Middle East was to find the conservative political leader and force talks with the reformist political leader. "I'll be fine. I'll take Exia." Ms. Sumeragi nodded. Lockon look as if he wanted to object, but was stopped with a look from Sumeragi. "Alright we will stay within range so as to react better." With that Setsuna nodded and left to prepare.
"Why are you letting him go alone?" yelled Lockon to Sumeragi.
"Because outsiders are just not welcome in that area, you would stick out too much and compromise the mission." Lockon wheeled around and stormed out of the briefing room. The others looked to Sumeragi, "The rest of you are on standby, if war breaks out we will be required to intervene."
