Background: While holding an undersecretary position, Michael Kushrenada is in fact a top operative in the U.I.C. A legendary figure in the intelligence world, his friendship which Adam Blaze has led him to adopt him and his sister, Emily.

Blaze walked towards his plane and looked back for a moment. It mission was straight forward. Then Usean military was gathering a fleet for a counterattack against Yuktobanian: General Mobilization. Wardog and several other squadrons are to act as air support against an enemy attack.

"Captain Blaze." He heard behind him.

Blaze turned to see a middle aged man in a black suit and mirror shades. He was 5'10", brown eyes, and red hair which showed nothing to his 42 years of age. A legendary figure in the war 15 years ago in espionage: Michael Kushrenada.

"Michael, I know that I'm a squadron leader…" Blaze said, "… but to my knowledge, it is only until they find someone better."

"Adam, we both know that they won't." Michael said, "Your genetic evolution to formula X-22 was far superior to the others. You have a natural talent with anything involving war." Michael shrugged and said, "Besides, I think that I could…"

"Don't even think about it." Blaze said, "I will not have special treatment. That is a good way to be notice."

"You're already walking the right path to be notice." Michael said, "However, this is war. A skilled pilot should be considered insignificant to anyone in most cases. But in this case, the Gray Men are afraid. You scare them. So does Emily."

"So I should have just let my squadron die and the fleet be destroyed?"

"No, but you should watch you back." Michael answered. "Your gifts are harder to hide then Emily's."

Blaze shrugged, "If you're so worried, we could always tell the U.I.C about Emily and me."

"Not at chance in hell!" Michael retorted. "The both of you would be placed in lab to study your cells and I would be 'replaced'." Michael sighed, "No, I think it's best to keep this indoors."

Blaze nodded with a grin, "Never easy, is it?"

"No it's not." Michael said, "Watch you back, Adam. The Gray Men would love nothing more then to see you six feet under. You're wingmen could get caught in the crossfire, if that happens."

Blaze then said, "That would be a sorry day."

"Yes it would."

Then Blaze added, "For them."

"Kei! Kei!" Emily called out as she ran toward the three wingmen of Wardog.

"Emily, shouldn't you be…"

"If I did that, I wouldn't see Adam before he left." Emily said.

Nagase smiled while Chopper and Grimm started laughing. This girl was impossible. She still managed to escape Blazes room after to MP's were sent to guard it. They were going to have a field day with this one.

"Also, I have to give you this." Emily said as she held out a small bracelet.

Nagase picked it up and looked at it. It looked to be homemade, with bird feathers attached. "Thank you."

"You're welcome." Emily said, "It'll help you protect my brother."

"Speaking of you brother." Chopper said as Blaze entered the hanger. He didn't seem the least bit surprised to see Emily there. However, there was another man with him that he didn't recognize.

Blaze knelled down so that he was at Emily's height. "Alright, squirt. I have to go now." Blaze said, "Now, unless there is a real emergence, don't seek onto the base again. Okay?"

"Alright." Emily said, "I'm sorry, Michael. I was scared."

He smiled and said, "I know. But like you brother said, you can't just come to him whenever. I could have seen about it. Okay."

"Alright." Emily said.

Blaze then stood up. "Alright. Lets get to the air, guys… and girl."
