-2001-

After four weeks of futile attempts at negotiation to keep the XFJ project up and running after the Yukon Base incident, Takamura could do nothing but wait on the plane as the news covers the XFJ project being shut down by The Japanese government officials.

"..I refuse to acknowledge that this is the end." Takamura thought to herself.

Once the plane landed in Kyoto, she picked up her bags and walked into the airport. She was picked up by a limo and she reflected upon the times she had with US 2nd Bridges. She refused to believe that this was the end. When Yui arrived at her home, she listened to an answer machine message that was left behind by chairman, Masashi Kisaragi.

" . I know this project meant a lot to you. But the board voted kick the main pilot off the development team."

Wait, did she hear that right? Why would they choose to kick Yuuya off the project, the man who was mostly responsible for making the Shiranui Type-2 the way it is today?

-2003-

Around two years after the project's shutdown, she made a proposal to the government during a meeting about military affairs. She proposed to start up a new TSF development project with a new main test pilot.

"I have come today to make a proposal. To start a new project of TSF development under a new name with a new main test pilot. Since Lt. Bridges was kicked off the project, We'll have to start a new project under a new name. Project White Glint."

Some of the board members looked at her, thinking that she was insane. However, the majority agreed with her proposal.

"All in favor of Takamura's proposal." The chairman of the board asked. The majority of them raised their hands.

"All those against." The chairman said. None of them objected.

"Alright, Lt. Takamura. We will give you permission to start the project and we will fund it. However, whoever becomes your main test pilot will be up to you." said the chairman.

"Sir, may I put forward a candidate for the main test pilot?" said one of the board members.

"You may." said the Chairman.

"I suggest a pilot who goes by the name "Akihiro Flynn". He served in the Anti-BETA Nations Imperial Army six years ago and has taken down more BETA than his subordinates." He said.

This information piqued Yui's curiosity. Who exactly was this man? Could he be the answer that she was looking for to develop the most effective TSF against the BETA?

However, at that moment, A man who looked like he was in his 50's walked in. This man was none other than the head of the Razenack Corporation, Ridley Abbott.

"Razenack CEO, Ridley Abbott." said the Chairman who watched Ridley walk in. He was listening to their conversation about bringing Akihiro Flynn onto the new development team.

"I would gladly recommend that Akihiro Flynn joins the new development team. He was the leading pilot in my unit six years ago. And trust me, me and my company will do whatever it takes to destroy the BETA. I promise, you won't regret this decision." He said with a calm, yet nerve racking grin.

Yui was unsure if she could trust this man. However, if he really had associated with Akihiro Flynn in the past, then it shouldn't be too much of a worry. Provided that Abbott can actually be trusted.

This, is the story of how those events came to transpire...
