Most pilots in the Angels of Freedom are just support, they won't play major roles. Anyway, here's the quiz time! Answer for the reason to my Pen name; Home One is the name of a Flagship in the Star Wars book series. The ship was commanded by Admiral Ackbar, a legendary commander who later passed away in the later series. Exams and Scout Job Weeks at the same TIME! Tis year is hell for me!

Chapter 8: Some Questions Can Never Be Answered

"Kid. Hey Kid, can ya hear me? Crap, Kira, get a medic up hear right now!"

"Roger that. Control. This is Major Yamato requesting medical assistance immediately, a Russian pilot just squashed his nose on the platform." A Voice spoke.

Tolle Koenig of the Russian forces who recently joined the Angels of Freedom peeled his eyelids open. He tried to ask what had happened, but all he got was a small unintelligible, "Mullp"

Mwu La Fllaga, captain of the Protector and commander of the second mobile suit squadron in the Angels of Freedom looked down at Tolle he had been looking over when the kid had spoilt the immaculate platform, with his nose.

Fllay Alster considered hitting a wall with her head when she saw what Tolle did. That stupid prat never stopped showing off, now he was paying the price for flirting with all those females from the Russian Elite.

Stellar Louisser in her now golden hair and cute reddish eyes gaped at the scene. She had received a full pardon after a small amount of questioning by the chief representative of Orb, Cagalli. The thirty-minute section proved to be useless, as she herself didn't even know the name of the base or person who had saved her, or the reason why the base's men suddenly chased her. At least she had been allowed to continue as a sharpshooter in the Angels Of Freedom

Mayu Asuka looked on in amusement and remembered the time when her brother had broken his nose when he had tried to prove to her that he could jump form the tope of a ten-meter hillock and land on his feet. A bit of record digging and red tape, which had been used by Cagalli, showed that Mayu had been picked up by a lone Astray pilot of who had been the last unit who had evacuated Onogoro Island and saved by the same captain who had cared for Shinn.

Unfortunately, she had been struggling to live in the ship's intensive care unit while Shinn had been sobbing all the way in the vessel's main hanger bay in self-pity and in sadness of being left alone by his family.

Of course, Mayu didn't now that her brother was alive, or that he had gone missing after the second war had ended.

Then a full medical team of four was zooming up the secret stairwell and was by Mwu's side in a second. The mystery captain of the med team hauled the unconscious pilot onto his feet and the squad was speeding into a base with a very worried Fllay, a very upset Mwu and a sighing Admiral Ramius.

The rest of the platoon of officers sweat dropped and Kira looked to the rest of his men and women. "Alright, looks like we can skip the formal greetings and everything, so, TROOP DISMISSED!" Kira was not having a good time at all.

Grumbling at the prospect of not being able to tease or even court the newbies for some single officers, the bunch of perverts.

Stellar and Mayu file out of the pack of exiting officers last. They looked at each ther for a moment talking to each other with their eyes. Then Stellar asked the simple question "Wanna, go for the firing range?"

"Alright! I still need to beat you at shooting!"

"I don't' think so, I'm the best sniper in this unit, though you're the best field mechanic who actually managed to repair a disabled Astray unit in less than a minute with a beam saber which you specially modified for the purpose of fine tune bonding of detached hydraulic cables." Stellar didn't notice how flushed her friend was until..

Mayu went zooming off towards the sniper range laughing, "Well at least I'm able to beat you any time at sprinting!"

Giggling, Stellar took off after her companion.

In the comm. center, Miriallia received a message from Germany.

"We have processed all our best and new pilots and have finally come up with three pilots. They are, Fernandez Von Rhymer, Andreas La Flaga and.. WHAT?"

Miriallia was out of the center before anyone else could react. All her junior officers crowded round her desk and read the last name on the screen.. the females were ready to blow in rage some male noses began to bleed at the thought of the picture of the girl whose name was on screen;

Her Eminence Katherine Von Stryker, daughter of his Excellency Raven Von Stryker.

Islands of Great Britain..

He was a General of an age which was too young to actually be a person with such a high rank. General Dhanit Paige a young but brilliantly cunning soldier. In the first war, he had personally led a route of some Zaft forces and embarrassingly defeated the Coordinators with an amazing kill ratio in Russia. He however never became a leader of great armies like Halberton of the 8th Fleet due to one simple problem. He was a rogue.

He was left to be a general who headed a small force, which was tasked with defending Russia.

During the second war, he had refused to budge a single troop under his command from their defense ranks when Jibiril had requested for troops as Dhanit thought of the Logos leader as a fool.

The instant the second war had ended, he had staged a coup of the Earth Alliance's Top-secret weapons inventions facility in the Isles Of Britain by finally moving his menial forces. It was the same one which had made the successful line of Strike Daggers in the first war.

Knowing the General's skills, the base's defenders captured their own commanders and welcomed their new leader with open arms. One month later, the underground base was deviously wiped from all records, more than 200 000 spies, hackers, and engineers, war veterans and soldiers from all over the world joined his now relatively large army. Then Dhanit Paige set up his own guerilla unit which would fight for it's Pure Blue And Eternally Natural World, The International Union of Earth.

General Dhanit Paige looked out of his office's window, looking down at the New Phoenix Mobile Armors. He smiled. Hacking is really my type of business. The thrill of sneaking into high security sites like Orb's military blueprint is just great. I've got to thank my Hackers for getting me such information on Orb's Akatsuki Gundam. It's laser deflection technology is truly one worthy of stealing for the construction of these Phoenixes.

His new aide entered the room and requested for him to step into The Room. Dhanit smiled, so, that thing must be ready. He thanked his aide and made his way to The Room.

When he entered, his chief scientist looked up from the room's twenty computer terminals and welcomed his superior. With a flourish, the scientist said, " We have the Purity up and running now sir!"

Nodding in a manner that would say that Dhanit was pleased with the results, he motioned for the man to take him somewhere..

The scientist obligingly took the General to a huge hanger and ordered the hanger crew to switch on the spotlights. Then with great anticipation, he watched as the lights came on to reveal…. A measly Windam.

"This, this is what you call a Gundam? It's a bloody fucking mobile suit you twit! After all the millions of credits I stuffed into your department, all you can give me is a Windam? I'd say you've been embezzling the cash I've been giving to you!" Dhanit was enraged basically speaking.

The scientist, as calm as ever, spoke loudly and clearly to no one apparently, "Desnand activate program 231."

The Windam instantaneously vanished. "Holy SHITTY pants of fire!" Dhanit yelled. The scientist ordered for the program to be deactivated and the Purity reappeared.

"This suit is made to look like a Windam to fool the enemy to thinking that the opponent is a mere mobile suit when it is in actual fact a Gundam which has the same armor that protects the Akatsuki, a particle shield, 2 double-edged beam sabers, a standard laser rifle and two special particle shield –piercing spear darts." The Scientist gestured to his invention with a flourish.

A cruel smile appeared on Dhanit's face, "Deceptive and tricky.. I like it. Have you found a pilot for this thing?"

The scientist's smile faltered, "Well.. about that general, we haven't quite found a suitable pilot for the Purity."

Dhanit patted his scientist with unusual good cheer, "Don't worry about it! I'll pilot this babe."

"Okay if that's settled, I would like to tell you that even with the combined efforts of ours and the Hacker team, we are still unable to get much info on the mysterious island at the tip of the peninsular of Malaysia, which is a part of the South Eastern Asiatic Bloc. However, the Espionage Team has found the most amazing thing!"

Dhanit gave his man the usual what-in-heaven's-name are you talking about look, "And.. this is..?"

"It's a Mass-Driver sir, one that's older than all the rest! There are pits all over the Island as well which as per initial investigations, tell us that these are some sort of magnetic accelerators which are used to launch some sort of unit like a mobile suit."

"Interesting, have the men been able to find anything else?" Dhanit's eyes were glowing with hunger.

The scientist shrank, "Well sir, about that, the team says all other disks are either too outdated or the info is too badly damaged."

The General's Mood suddenly turned as black as a storm cloud. "What do you mean, is there a type of processing unit to read this surviving disks, but these units just happen to be missing from my huge archives?" Dhanit roared.

The scientist shrank to the approximate size of a mouse. "Well, you see sir, the only nation which has the processor required is.. well, Orb."

Dhanit suddenly deflated like a balloon. "Then getting the unit is impossible. My best men and even I can never beat the physical defenses of that same nation which defeated all its competition about four years ago till now."

The scientist looked apologetic, "Then I'm afraid sir, that the question of the Island's past can never be answered, by our men anyway."

The General, Dhanit Paige swore his head off.

HQ of the Angels Of Freedom

Kira chanced a glance at the red haired Major of the Russian Empire. She was seated upon her chair for the past half an hour, sighing and shaking her head in disapproval at the unconscious young man whose name was Major Tolle Koenig.

Deciding to try to get something out of the girl while she was worrying over her junior as his men and his superiors had not found anything on the duo except that they had been born in Russia and the rest, was pretty much an ordinary life of the ordinary soldier other than the extraordinary fighting abilities they possessed.

"Umm.. so, what have you two guys been doing in the Academy during the second war?" Kira suddenly felt like the timid mouse when he was in the first part of the first war.

"Well, nothing much. We trained, get to the top of our classes then we entered the army pretty much as rookies as the war had ended." Fllay's eyes had a faraway look on her face.

Kira then decided. I think I need to change the subject. That should catch her off Guard. I don't need to hear the routine answers.

Hah! I'm not gonna fall for that ol' trick major! Fllay continued with her complaints of Tolle's stupidity, all the while paying no attention to Kira, that is until..

"… you two engaged?"

Fllay's eyes snapped open.

"WHAT?"

Shit! I knew I picked the wrong subject. Kira swore as Fllay slowly got out of her chair and she stalked up to a now microscopic Kira. Kira felt the heat rolling off the enraged woman like waves of fire.

Kira's body ordered him to squish himself against the chair as he brace for an impact that he knew would come.

BLAM!

"Majorrrr! THE PRINCESS OF GERMANY IS COMING TO BE A PILOT OF OUR FORCES!"

That's weird, I don't feel any pain and isn't that Miriallia screaming about Princess Von Stryker coming to serve as a- WHAT? Kira burst out of his seat. Staring wide-eyed at Miriallia, not noticing that Fllay had jumped backwards to avoid the crazed girl.

Miriallia caught he breadth and faced Kira, " It's the Princess of Germany sir, Katherine Von Stryker's coming as a soldier!"

If I continue to get interrupted like this all the time, I'm never gonna get any answer for myself! Kira was not having good times at all.

To be continued..

On the next Chapter: The Angels of Freedom get their first mission to explore an island that was lost in time and just found. However, they aren't the only one who are there. Phoenix gets its first taste of the bitter war field in Grave of the Lost city

HO: I think I'm goin a bit overboard. I fell sick two times in one week and locked the lock with the Scout equipment. Man that pissed the commanders. Please bear with my schedule.
