Lady Tigeress- Glad to know you found it so funny, I must have tried at least twenty different chapter fifteens before settling on that one. Yeah, I had the mental picture of some poor maid being sent up to investigate and walking in on that scene. Have you been Robert Aspirin lately, as those last two lines sound like something Azah would say to Skeeve. Thanks for your gracious compliments and for the reveiw.
Mithros- I'm happy that you like Relena better than any of her predecessors, though personally I have a certain fondness for Kira Peacecraft. I thought that having her take over the Rebellion at fifteen was suitable, as that was the age that great-great-great-great-grandfather Heero Yuy started his job as a Gundam Pilot. She does seem to care about having the people reading this journal know what is happening where and when she is. As her mother put it writing a journal entry is a more than fair trade for eternal life and the ability to create history to match your own views. I did like Anna, she was... well, different. Thanks for reviewing.
Chapter 16
I had Anna say that I would be putting in a (long-overdue) report of my mission. It's not that I don't trust Anna, it's that I don't TRUST Anna. I trusted her enough to let her write a log, but I'm not giving pertinent information about this particular mission for now, and I'm sure that you'll see my reasoning once you read this log.
Before I do give my report I'm going to put in a brief status report on my idiotic marriage. My husband and I have an armed truce at the moment. I use the term armed for a good reason, we're armed with our and each other's secrets, and those are more than enough weaponry for our little battles. The terms of our truce are that we are not either openly hostile or overly friendly, as well as that we remain on first name bases. Trowa has come close to breaking the terms of truce by being overly friendly, but then again so have I by nearly calling him by his last name. Trowa wants to make our marriage a real one.
Now onto the report. It was a trap. Our spy had turned on us. He was deep into the government, and he turned. You probably have read about him in your history books, his name is Counselor Rudolfus Troy. I should start at the beginning though, so I don't miss any important facts. Technical notes are in brackets and personal note are in parenthesis.
This mission started out like any other. We had a team of seven, which gathered in one of the conference rooms of our headquarters this is a normal practice so you can see who you are working with and if you don't work well with someone, or don't trust them you can quietly pull the team leader aside to explain the problem and they will fix it. We left at different times, and use different modes of transport, and met up in a predestined spot near the target position to finalize plans. Each team was in their respective positions when our spy (level 20, sub-prober) entered the target.
I don't think that I've mentioned what the target was. It was the Earth Sphere United Alliance/Colony C.R.U.S.H. Unified government central headquarters, it is where London, England use to be. That's right, folks, it takes up the entire space where London used to be, and even a little extra. That large and extravagant building is home to almost every ambassador, diplomat, and politicians of both Earth and the colonies.
My partner and myself were stationed at exit #10492, which is in the rear of the building and to the left of the Spire with the rose window. The Alpha pair were stationed at entrance #502, which is the main entrance. The other Omega pairs were scattered about the perimeter ready to penetrate the target if necessary.
Our task was to penetrate the target, extract agent #50347, retrieve the information he is carrying, and exit, all without being noticed if at all possible. We managed to enter the building and meet up before starting our search. I'm going to spilt this into two section the first will be what happened to the Alpha pair and the second will be what happened to me and my partner.
The Alpha pair are the ones who actually met up with our rogue spy. They walked straight into a trap, as when they identified themselves to him, with the proper Rebellion authorization codes, the Enforcers and Secret Police came out for the shadows and tried to arrest them. They got away, but only with the help of our support teams, and even then by the skin of their teeth.
While that was going on my partner and I explored the catacombs of the target. We managed to end up in an empty backup information room, before our panic alarm informed us that it was time to disappear into the havoc that would inevitably be cause by a "rebel penetration". We managed to grab a copy of most of the information stored there, which included layouts of every government base, current missions, some older missions, file on suspected spies, and, best of all, files on all of their spies.
