1st Feather : Blue Stratos
Ten years later…
A girl named Kayley was driving her Altis from school when her phone started to ring.
"Umm… Hello?" she answers the phone.
"Listen, Kayley, we have a runaway armored van. I need you to stop it before it enters the countryside." The voice on the phone said.
"I understand…How do I do that?"
"Do whatever it takes, but don't try to block it with the Altis, you'll only endanger yourself. That is an armored vehicle, blocking would only slow it down."
"Alright." Kayley puts down the phone and drives towards the location of the van.
A few minutes later, Kayley eventually catches up with the armored van. She drives her car to the van's side and tried to push it off the road. She tries several times but to no avail. Instead, she was the one getting pushed off the road, with less than two feet on both sides before she got squeezed between the road barriers and the van. The distance was getting smaller as she was trying to find a way and when she was about to get totaled, a dark-blue Stratos appeared from behind and pushes the Altis forward fast enough to get the Stratos in front of the van and behind the Altis. They reached a curve towards the left, and since the van had to turn slowly to the right in order to squeeze the Altis, it crashed into the concrete barrier, knocking out its driver. The Stratos and the Altis turned around towards the van. Both of the drivers got off when Kayley notices the print on the side of the Stratos.
"AILE…He's from AILE too…" she said to herself as she walked towards the driver of the Stratos.
"What were you doing! I had everything under control!" she shouted at him.
"If you had everything under control, why were you almost squashed by that armored van?" he asked her.
"It was…part of my plan!"
"Whatever!"
There argument was cut short when a mini-bus with the same AILE print stopped near them. A man wearing an officer's uniform disembarked and talked to them.
"Commander Ganef, it's you!" the driver of the Stratos said.
"Oh, hi Zeal!" Ganef said as he gave Zeal a bear-hug.
"Ganef! What do I look like? A pillow? You nearly broke my back!" Zeal said as he held his aching back.
"Oh, sorry. You just remind me of my little brother! I used to do that to him everytime I see him." He said as he scratched his head.
"How many times do I have to tell you, I'm not your brother!"
"Umm… Did I miss something?" Kayley asked cluelessly.
"Oh, Kayley. I see you met your new partner, Zeal Levanter."
"What! Him! My partner! No way!" she gets on the Altis and drives away.
"Is she always like that?" he asked Ganef.
"Only when she doesn't complete a mission."
"Oh boy…"
