Soto-unkown room
"Greetings generational leaders" spoke the captain.
"Greetings captain Sangu. I assume that the last mission was a complete success?" asked one of the figures on the screen."Of course leader FC. The mission went exactly as predicted." captain Sangu replied.
"Good so how much damage have we done to them as a result." asked another. "According to the reports we intercepted the CSO have taken a major hit with the loss of their main recruiters and will be unable to carry out any plans for at least half a year leader UC." Sangu answered. "Well that's good" replied the same person.
A quick moment passed and Captain Sangu spoke.
"Leaders this attack has damaged the CSO considerably and we recently have come into contact with data that shows the remnants of Blue Cosmos are conducting some kind of experiment." "An experiment what kind of an experiment?" asked one of the Leaders. "We are not sure, but strike force one and myself would like to find out as soon as possible. So we would like to ask permission to find out." replied the captain.
"And by find out you mean stop them?" asked a female voice. The captain looked to the last screen to the left and replied. "In a sense yes, but only after we acquire the data and find out what their plan is exactly." "Of course only the attack oriented leader of strike force one would consider such a thing." she replied. The captain's face contorted into a hidden scowl as he looked at the screen. "Wha-" "Could the two of you please wait until your personal times to argue about this." spoke another female voice this one much softer and nicer than the other.
The two then looked over at the screen next to it and saw another woman looking at them with her hands together her head resting on them.
"Also lady AW I would prefer that you not broil one of my subordinates. After all the members of the individual sections are all deeply related to one another. So by insulting them you insult me as well and no one likes to be insulted." she said with a cheery sound in her voice. The other women grunted and replied "Forgive me Lady AC I meant no disrespect, but I am just simply stating my mind."
"Well since that, matter has been dealt with perhaps we should focus on the present." spoke another voice. "After all I would hate for my part part of out organization to delete itself." "Of course Leader CE, so I assume that is a yes to our movement." spoke Captain Sangu. "Indeed by all means, if it keeps the world from going to war once again go right ahead. Does any one else wish to give their two sense about this."
"It is my opinion that we let them do as they please." spoke the FC leader. "I concur with the FC. What about you Lady AW?" spoke the UC leader. "As much as I hate to agree with this plan I think you should continue." she replied. "And of course I, your superior, agree with your idea of a preemptive strike." answered Lady AC.
"Very well then strike force one shall begin operations to attack Blue Cosmos immediately." spoke the captain.
Soto- training room
Amara was punching a training dummy until she heard the door open and looked at it. "Yushiro" she thought.
At the door was Yushiro entering with a towel around his neck with a green vest. He ignored her and walked to the weights and picked two sets of 5 pounders and began lifting them. He noticed Amara and looked at he with the same emotionless face he always had on. Yushiro put on a pair of boxing gloves and started punching a nearby punching bag.
As he continued the door opened up and Ato walked in with Karou close behind her.
"I'm telling you Ato, just because you're a martial artist doesn't mean that you can stop every one when you're in a mobile suit." Karou spoke. "Perhaps, but if I was in a GF model no one could stop me." she responded. "Please with your reckless style of combat you in a GF model would have gotten you killed in mission one. Yikkes!" shouted Karou as he saw a kunai knife imbedded into the wall. He looked and saw Amara's arm in throwing position and shot her an angry look.
"Don't give me that look Karou." she said as she went in to a resting position with her hands at her side. "I was wondering why Ato was taking so long, but I see now. Next time you guys come here together I suggest that you keep your mouths shut especially when he's training." Amara turned to Yushiro as he continued practicing his attacks on the punching bag.
Archangel- Briefing room
"Athrun who is is that?" asked Lacus over the screen she was pointing to the boy leaning against the wall.
The boy leaned off the wall and saluted "Lt. Jackson Herdeal, I am a member of Lady Cagalli's elite government defense squad."
"Is that true Athrun?" asked Kira.
"Yeah it is, he was recently assigned a position with us a few months ago" he replied. "But he isn't supposed to be authorized to take part in these kinds of meetings with out me or commander Lu Flaga's permission." he continued as he looked at him.
"Forgive me for my intrusion, but I was looking for Mr. Zala to have our weekly sparring match." Jackson replied. Athrun sighed and looked at the video screen.
"I apologize everyone, Jackson is a bit of a hot head, but he is loyal to the government Cagalli has created and has proven that on more than one occasion." Athrun turned and looked at Jackson and back to the screen. "So if its alright with you, I see no reason as to why he cant listen." Athrun continued.
Eternal-Bridge
"If Athrun thinks it's alright I don't see why we can't trust him to." spoke Lacus. Everyone looked and nodded in agreement and looked back to the screen.
Soto-Strike force 1 Briefing room
The members of strike force and the portcullis crew were gathering into the room.
"Alright everyone take a seat we have to discuss our next plan." spoke the captain as he walked to the front. "I have spoken to the generational leaders and they have agreed , that an attack on blue cosmos is necessary." The crew members began conversing amongst themselves after hearing the news their captain had given.
"And of course since Blue Cosmos is mainly situated on earth we will have to conduct atmospheric entry and split up the gundams and attack different locations simultaneously and then attack the other targets at our leisure."
Suddenly a crewmen raised his hand. "So does that mean that the portcullis will be commencing entry with the gundams on board?" he asked.
"Not exactly" replied the captain. "The gundams will enter the atmosphere on their own. But, they won't be alone exactly. We already have allies on the ground and our hidden bases are more than ready to support them whenever they ask for it and lastly we'll be using the drop ship Admoria to give aid to each of their special needs. Things such as rearmament, special medical aid, and most importantly it will transfer information to and from the Portcullis which shall be orbiting the planet on the outskirts of the debris belt. This way we will be undetected and still be able to pick them up from just about anywhere." the captain finished.
A crewmen raised his hand and asked "What about the repairs and moving the gundams around? I mean even though we will be receiving assistance from our allies on the ground I don't think we'll be able to move the gundams completely with out leaving some kind of paper trail behind and if that happens our ground members could be compromised and endangered and so will their families."
"A good question, we thought about that and we all agreed that we should use the help of groups like mercenaries squadrons and Black Market dealers, however if either ORB or the Plants capture them we will reveal ourselves and tell them all that we know. And I mean everything. Our mobile suits, our histories, ancestries, and of course the thing that we are trying to prevent."
The crew members began to gossip amongst themselves as the captain watched them.
"I know this mission is extremely dangerous;" spoke the captain over the voices of everyone else. "And that what I have planned is more than less likely to succeed, but it is necessary if we want to save this era from falling to a threat that should never have existed in it. However if any of you feel that it is too risky and that you would rather be able to see your friends and family again I will not hold you accountable and neither shall I blame you you all I ask is that you be ready to continue where we left off." he finished as he left the room. He stopped at the doorway and turned around "Those who will join the mission have 5 hours to meet us at the dock."
Archangel – Briefing room
The group aboard the archangel looked at the screen at the data that the ZAFT forces had gathered on the unknown mobile suits.
"Whew the technical data ZAFT acquired just from observations is impressive." spoke Mu.
"Perhaps, but all this data is just information the enemy doesn't mind letting out. I mean it's like we know what their operation time's maximum limit is or what their armors are made of. If we had that kind of data we could destroy them or even capture them with little to no casualties." replied Athrun.
"That would be extremely helpful, but then again if we had that kind of info we could probably find out who made them in the first place." spoke Ms. Murrue.
"Yeah and make them show us how we can unmake them." said Mu sarcastically.
"I hope we fight them before that though especially that unit 5 they mentioned." spoke Jackson excitedly.
"Perhaps you will, but until then everyone in the circle is to be on a level 3 status no information on our members affairs are to be let out to any one else. Even the higher ups in the military and the government are not to be alerted. If any of them press you tell them it is a direct order from me and if they continue still report them and they will be held in jail as an enemy spy." spoke Cagalli.
Once she had finished Athrun, Jackson, and herself left the Archangel and drove of in a limo with Jackson following them on a motorcycle.
Soto- Air Lock Tunnel
Strike force one was standing watching as the volunteers entered the tunnel heading for the portcullis.
"There's a lot more people than I thought that would volunteer for such a dangerous mission." spoke Ato as she watched the volunteers move along.
"I agree." spoke Shuya "Even though the Captain said all that, these guys are still coming at full speed."
"Of course, even though they are scared about loosing their lives they know that if they don't all the work they did before will be in vain and all the people they helped kill would have died in vain as well and they couldn't let that happen." Bridget spoke as she walked past the two and continued down to the ship.
"She's right ya know." spoke Karou as he walked up behind them with a bag filled with what ever he wanted. "What do you mean she's right?"asked Shuya. "I mean that, what she said about how those people feel. I mean humans are naturally scared to die and most are afraid to inflict that fear on others, but some humans are also able to ignore that and do what they have to do. I mean look at us we may be the descendents of gundam pilots who were just as if not better than the great Kira Yamato, but that doesn't mean that we have to follow the orders that the Keep or the generational leaders give either. But we chose to instead to keep the peace that was created and these people are doing working for the exact same reason." he replied.
"So all these people are coming along just to make sure the peace that exists currently stands and lasts for as long as they can?"asked Ato. "Exactly, they are honoring those who gave their life by making sure the peace they created lasts for long after their children are gone." spoke Karou as he walked down to the ship. "I see, but does that mean that it's right." thought Ato to her self as she too continued to walk down the to the ship.
Shuya stood there watching as the two of them walked to the ship. "But what if we told everyone in the world what is truly going on, before we get caught." Karou thought to himself as he proceeded down to the Portcullis.
Yushiro stood high in the rafters watching people board the ship.
"So here you are Yushiro." spoke an unknown voice. Yushiro looked and saw a woman in white dress uniform. "What do you think so far about the operation?" she asked. "I see it as a complete success so far, but I think we could use a little more time as well as connections to convince the rest of the world." he replied. "I see don't know how much time I can give you, but I know one way how you can create a new connection." she spoke. Yushiro looked to her with a puzzled look and replied "How?" The woman extended her hand with a disk in grasp. "Everything you need to know is on this disk." Yushiro reached out and grabbed the disk. "Also a list of people who know about this plans inside and will be awaiting your contact." "I understand thank you Leader AC." spoke Yushiro as he began to walk away. "Oh two more things, one make sure to tell Captain Sangu. And two in the future please don't call me that when the two of us are alone." "I see I will do as you ask mother, the mission is accepted." Yushiro said as he left with a grin on his face.
"Not exactly what I wanted, but considering who he's related to I'm not surprised, I just hope this mission will have the same influence as our ancestor had received. Ohh Heero what would you have done in this predicament." the leader thought to herself as she left.
