Miari looked at Rally with a slender eyebrow cocked. "Ms. Cheyenne?" she asked tentatively. Rally nodded and looked up at her nervously.
"Miari, don't worry about the AMP. We're here to help you drive the luciferhawks back. You haven't changed your mind have you?"
"Oh no, not at all," she replied, looking slightly taken aback. "In fact, I still don't quite agree with the mass slaughter of Luciferhawks. After all, yesterday I had a job that paid better than this. Why don't you have more members anyway? Wouldn't that help your cause more?" Rally shook her head and stood up.
"Look, Miari. You don't need to get worried about the AMP. As I said, we're here for you. Now, you should get introduced." Miari nodded and sat down at an empty computer space. Typing in the access code that Lebia had given her, she saw several profiles of dangerous luciferhawks. Yet one caught her eye:
Riessa, first commander of Luciferhawk army.
Identification #:2463597
Category:1
D.R. Rating-89
D.G Rating-95
Several other images appeared as the profile minimized and went into the upper left corner of the screen. Miari's eyes were wide with shock. "Was there an error?" Lebia asked, coming over to look at the screen.
"N-no. It's just....oh, forget it. It was just something trivial...."
"Lebia. Lebia Mavelich. So you're the newcomer that the chief was talking about. Do you really know that much about the Luciferhawks?"
"Well...I've forgotten some basic things, but I know almost all of their capabilities, and their group attack strategies. So obviously, I'm to be dragged into this war that's beginning."
"Is there anything wrong with that? Didn't you once belong to the luciferhawks? Don't you feel any connection to them now?"
"No, actually," she replied somewhat sharply. "My opinions differed greatly from those of the rest, so I would have been killed anyway if I hadn't left of my own accord." Miari hit a couple keys on her console and an entire profile of Riessa was right there before her:
Riessa, category one Luciferhawk
is known as a vicious killer who
will do anything to stop the progress
of the AMP. She has become one of the
greatest threats to humanity, and must
be harnessed, lest she aid her own kind
in destroying humanity. All officers
should be warned that she is ruthless
and believes in non-ethical warfare...
It went on for about four or five more lines giving information on the damage that this luciferhawk had caused. Suddenly, Miari began typing in several advanced computer codes and word by word, the profile was deleted.
Every other officer that was there came to look at what Miari was doing, only to find an empty computer screen. Katsumi remained in her seat, however, and had been watching as every word was deleted from the database. When Lebia looked to Miari, hoping for an explanation as to why she had just deleted the data on a high-ranking Luciferhawk. She simply said in a cool voice, "Officer Riessa no longer exists, and thus is merely wasting space." Lebia looked taken aback. Her blue eyes were wide as Miari started making additions to the database, of new officers that nobody had heard of, or made contact with, and certain Luciferhawks that would make good captives.
"How do you know of all these Luciferhawks?" asked Yuki, as she walked forward, looking very nervous.
"Just because I'm not with the Luciferhawk anymore doesn't mean that I don't have my....sources." Yuki nodded in acceptance and watched her typing words onto the screen quickly, and very few of them making sense. It appeared that Miari was typing in a foreign language. Suddenly, the computer screen blinked off and miari got up, stretching her arms upward. "There, Ms. Cheyenne, that should be all of the new ones that you needed information for. I hope you can read the profiles. I put it in my language in case some hackers get to it. There are codes that I found out from a source that can only be typed in Luciferhawk script, and I've got something special for anyone, even an AMP member, that tries to hack into my data."
Lebia looked more taken aback than anyone at Miari's knowledge of computers. "Then how are AMP members supposed to access these data files, Miari? We need access to them also."
"It's simple," said Miari. "You don't." With that, Miari got up and looked over at Lum Cheng. "You," she said calmly. "You're going to help me with something."
"Why should I? You seem to be handling things well enough."
"You are going to help. Come here, you little brat." Lum got up and stood rigidly, looking like an iron rod. Slowly, she walked over until she was face to face with Miari, looking into those piercing, icy blue eyes.
"What do you want help with?" asked Lum Cheng.
"My new...program. It's intended for those who are insubordinate. I'm quite sure you'll enjoy being my test subject. After all, it's not that harsh.
"Miari, don't worry about the AMP. We're here to help you drive the luciferhawks back. You haven't changed your mind have you?"
"Oh no, not at all," she replied, looking slightly taken aback. "In fact, I still don't quite agree with the mass slaughter of Luciferhawks.
