So, I rewatched GS and GSD Remastered again and I remembered that Fukuda's wife decided to write off Flay because she is a Lacus fan. How interesting would it be? She was also saved in the game itself and she also shows up behind Kira when you make him use his boost (she stayed true to her words there). I love the idea that he actually designed strike rouge for her to pilot but then that was also taken away since they have to change the script, they gave it to Cagalli. Also, the part where she inherited her father's high rank in the Blue Cosmos Group sounds interesting!Besides he said so himself that "Kira's heart always belongs to Flay" but Bandai wanted them to focus more on KxL. Is that why he's been staring out in space all the time? Because of that red glow in the sky which they showed during her lifepod scene and was also shown before him after the blast? There's few shots in Destiny showing the same red glow whenever Kira looks up the sky which is really sweet if it meant something. Also, when birdie found Kira the space shifted from black to what it was when she said her true feelings will protect him. Gah! So many questions. It won't be Gundam Seed if she didn't activate Kira's Seed mode! Don't forget!
Anyways, I just feel like I should make a fanfic since it's been so long! I'm a YxF worshipper but I just can't pass this one up. Note: Please don't come at me if I make geographic, events and political mistakes I don't dive in deep with the C.E History.. I'M SORRY in advance. I'll say this is AU so I don't get critical-ized if that's a word. BUT! That doesn't mean I won't accept criticisms; I do and please do speak! be harsh If u must. Read and Review! I am not a writer at all. And this will be Flay centered as hell because she deserves it, they took everything away from her. MA too cos LEMONS!

Armory One
"Thank you for approving our request Yzak." Lacus smiled at the young commander who gave her a nod as acknowledgment. They were supposed to head to earth in two days but due to the Princess of ORB's schedule, they were set to leave early.
Lacus is currently the chairman of PLANT while Cagalli remains the Representative of ORB. Keeping the peace between Coordinators and Naturals has been their goal and they are doing their best to achieve it. The whole Archangel crew accompanies Cagalli during the conferences in PLANT and Minerva which is now under Yzak Joule's command, escorts Lacus through her visits to earth.
Minerva (Bridge) 16:00
A man in his 50's was pacing around with a troubled look on his face. He flipped the papers on his folder several times trying to figure out what details he missed. "Setsuna, reboot the device and try to reconnect and Alice please run the analysis again." He ordered his assistants as he tried reading the papers again. They needed to hurry up and figure out how to make the small beeping device work. He heard the error tone again, it made him want to give up and just go back to the lab. But this is one of the few occasions that they can perform the sync. He closed his eyes, calculating what is it that they forget.
"Professor Toda" Yzak called out as soon as he entered the bridge followed by the group.
He immediately looked up and offered a handshake to Yzak. "Commander Joule, I didn't expect you to be on the ship." He failed to hide the surprise in his voice. Yzak knew about their project, and he supports them. The shock was from the people he is with. Captain Murrue Ramius, Commander Mu La Flaga, Commander Andrew Watfield, ORB Admiral and ZAFT Commander Kira Yamato, Supreme Chairman Lacus Clyne, ORB Representative Cagalli Yula Athha and Admiral Athrun Zala entered the bridge. Then not long after Shinn Asuka, Lunamaria Hawke and Meyrin Hawke followed and stood near the CiC station.
He is aware of the great things these group of people did for both Earth and PLANT and to see them in front of him, he feels so honoured and this is why he wanted to protect these people against any threat that may come their way. He has faith that these people will lead both worlds to a future they all long for. But they are not aware of him or his program at the moment and he has no plans of letting them know yet.
"There was a change of schedule." His eyes studying the old man when he saw him looking worried at the group. "Is everything alright?"
"Uh not really. Our device isn't working we might need to do some more adjustments." He explained, his expression looked disappointed.
"Who are they Yzak? They are not from ZAFT." Andrew Watfield asked when he noticed the girls on the computer. They are both wearing a white blazer dress uniform with a logo he doesn't recognize. It looked like wings but with further inspection, you can make out an H in the middle and geometric shapes mostly triangles forming the wings.
Yzak breathed. "Professor, I believe there is no harm in telling them." He's been dying to tell them about it too but he just couldn't find the right time for it.
The man hesitated but sensing that he can't lie to get out of the situation, given the untrusting looks he's getting from the males, he decided to give them information. "We, we are an autonomous group of scientists; our members are made up of both coordinators and naturals. They are all volunteers from the previous wars. Our main goal is to track abnormal occurrences in the system. Unknown movements, groups, like us. We can't let each side make secret weapons anymore. That's why we developed a system to track those secret projects. Though not yet perfect we believe that our device is already of good use." He was concise with the explanation if they need clarifications, he will answer them later.
Mu rubbed his chin trying to decode the man's words. He has his doubts. "An autonomous group but where do you guys get your supplies and budget, who is supporting you?"
The man gave Mu an understanding look. "Though I was just an associate scientist before, I was there when they cloned your father, Commander." he answered looking at Mu and then Kira." I didn't have any power to make any changes then, even until now. But if this helps a little then I'd be happy. I am supporting this group; our resources are just things we scavenged from war. But to keep our anonymity I would like you to understand that I cannot tell you where we are based. But know that our intentions are coming from a good place." He was trying to give the briefest answer he could.
Gesturing to his assistants, "These are Setsuna and Alice, they were both students from September City." He introduced the girls who just bowed.
The group looked at each other, still hesitating if they should trust the man. "What made you believe him Yzak?" Athrun asked which Yzak just answered by showing him data on the table.
More questions followed after which Professor Toda reliably answered.
"But as you can see our new device isn't working. It is not syncing with the ship." He said sadly.
Andrew narrowed his eyes at this. "Hmmm, but you said it's already good to go?"
"Ah yeah, this is a new model, the old one needed us to sync manually through cables which take a long time and requires one of our volunteers to be on the site. And this one is less risky since we can perform the sync through a wireless network." His face showing the disappointment on his failed device.
"What's the main function of that device anyway?" Athrun asked this time.
"We call it the God's Eye." He proudly said. " Anything linked to this device, you can track; a person, an object, anything. We have already linked it with most of earth satellites as well as PLANT. Its main purpose is surveillance and security. It can disarm any weapon but if placed in the wrong hands, it can be weaponized." He looked at the girl with the blonde hair named Setsuna gesturing her to hand over the device. "We only have 2, this new one and the original model the V1." Turning the device around. "But this is just a piece of metal, a letdown." Years of hard work can be seen on his face.
Andrew took the device from the Professors' hand which he was cautious to actually let go but he did. "Where is the other one?"
"It doesn't matter we will just fix this one and test it again besides we have to get to earth soon as well." The professor answered trying to take the device from Andrew but he didn't give it. "Together with the pilot, I was informed that there are five people on your shuttle." He glanced at the old man waiting for a reaction.
He drew back. "The fifth one is our new recruit, our t-trainee." His voice faltered.
"Hmmm, a trainee... "Andrew was now circling the Professor, his hand on his hips while sipping on his coffee. "And why would you bring a trainee on a trip like this?"
"Because she was so stubborn about coming to see the ship? I told you it's a bad idea!" The girl with the blonde hair whispered to the other girl who shushed her right away.
Alice who was standing behind the Professor with Setsuna spoke. "Yes, she has the old device, but she doesn't know how to properly use it. We only handed it to her cos she enjoys stalking a certain person and she somehow helps with the reports. And.."
"And?"
"And the AI locked on to her so we have no authority on it, for now, we are finding ways to reverse it"
"Ehhhhh?" Mu was curious.
"She's a natural, and she basically has next to no knowledge about programming. And everyday she would come up to us and ask about him so we decided to let her borrow it so we get more work done on the new device." She continued.
"And why would you give her something so important?" Mu raised his eyebrows his tone trying to catch liars now.
She drew a breath and let it go. "Because she's harmless and we trust her." Alice answered, serious.
"Alright then let's have the trainee come up here and show us how the device works. I presume she's the only person who can use it right?" Mu smiled at Alice but the girl with the blonde hair answered. "She doesn't know where this place is, she'll get lost." Hugging Alice's arm.
Mu just facepalmed. "Why would you accept this person as a trainee? By the sound of it she isn't a soldier either. "
"Neh Alice, it does sound weird when we talk about it outside the lab eh?" Setsuna whispered to her friend who shushed her again.
"Ok let's see her." Mu turned around and ordered the soldiers outside to get the trainee. "No offense to you guys but you seem awfully protective of this trainee."
30mins passed
Murrue sat on the chair next to Mu, "I wonder what's taking them so long." She looked up at him.
The old professor sighed, as he lowered his gaze at Murrue, "Please, she was our patient and she hasn't fully recovered yet. If she doesn't talk just let her be. We will answer them for you as best as we can. She's not yet prepared. Just -"
Then they heard a commotion outside "Let me go! I said don't touch me! AHHHH! " The door slid open and two soldiers struggled to enter while pulling a girl on each arm as she scuffles to free herself from her captors. "Let go!" She managed to yank her arms hitting one of the soldiers on the face and she used her free hand to repeatedly slap the other soldier on the head. She's wearing the same white uniform as the other two girls but she has a belt on her waist which holds the V1.
Her hair floated around like blazing fire as she fights off the poor soldier who was still holding her arm. Cagalli, Mu, Murrue, and Kira were speechless. They were there when she was thrown into the battlefield, taken by the Dominion and became a target to set Kira off. Even Yzak and Dearka recognized the girl, they have encountered her in different situations. But they knew she died they heard Kira's cries while he was trying to save her and when he lost her. So, she can't be that girl.
"Please Commander.." he pleaded again.
Mu immediately signaled the soldiers to let her go and leave the bridge, still trying to digest the situation.
She heard Mu's voice ordering the soldiers to get out and she felt her body tremble as he saw him. She wanted to scream. She was afraid. She stared at him as her hands unconsciously went up to cover her face.
It's as if the world stopped around Kira, it's her. She's right there in front of him. Alive. They talked about the trainee looking after a certain person. He knows that person is him without a doubt. She knows where he was, but she didn't come and see him. He prayed what he's looking at isn't real but at the same time, he wanted it to be real. Why didn't she? Is this really her? Emotions are cursing through his body but he stood there frozen just looking at her. Confusion and anger?
"Flay!" The Professor called. "You know who that is right? it's not him." He said slowly his hand gesturing her to calm down.
The girl immediately closed her eyes as if trying to redraw a memory.
The professor moved a little to make sure she's handling it well, " We perform mental conditioning every now and then, she's still too fragile to process everything. Please understand." He apologized.
And they did. Everyone was quiet, they saw what happened to her but that also happened to Mu and he's here. So why can't it happen to her too?
Flay opened her eyes and looked at the Professor at the other end of the room.
"We need you to show them what's on your device." He gave her a comforting smile as he showed her where to plug the gadget.
She floated towards the old man as she scanned the people in the room. Then he saw him, standing behind Murrue with Lacus clinging to his arm, tightening the grip on his arm. His eyes were locked on to her, she felt her heart tighten, she wanted to talk to him, she wanted to run and hug him forever and never let go but she shouldn't, she at least wants to talk but the situation isn't right. Not now Kira, I can't talk to you right now. I'm sorry. Please give me some more time." She thought to herself as she tore her eyes away from him. She approached the table and with shaky hands, she tried to connect the device on Minerva's system. She granted them temporary remote access to the device and immediately asked permission to return to their shuttle.
She rushed to the exit and then she heard him. "What is this?!" his voice was angry. He brushed Lacus' arms off and moved towards where she's standing. She heard the people try to stop him but why didn't they pull him back? "Why are you running away?!" This is not what she imagined their meeting would be.
"It's been three years, you're already happy! Why would I ruin it for you?!" she tried to speak.
Anger is now showing on his face as he fisted his hands. "That's not true. I'm suffering because of you." looking away.
His words stabbed. Maybe she deserved it. She did make him suffer and she knows that it just hurts more because the words came from him. She tried to say something but words won't come out of her mouth. She wanted to reach out and comfort him but he already left.
Inside the Bridge 17:30
"Who is she?" Athrun who was confused asked to whoever.
"Uhm, remember the voice from the life pod he willingly risked his life to retrieve?" Cagalli answered looking at the door that is now closed.
Athrun tried to recall the memory "She's the one I must protect…" he murmured.
Cagalli just stared at him "Huh?"
"That's what he said when he was throwing himself at the enemies he was crying those words.."
"Ohhh, strange... he said the same thing when ZAFT tried to assassinate Lacus" Andrew joined in on the conversation "..but it was a bit different, he said it will bother him if he can't protect her." Still not understanding the relationship between the two, he looked at Murrue for answers.
"She was the reason Kira stayed with Archangel, they were being discharged and she volunteered to join the military. She was the youngest in their group then. The youngest in my crew." She sighed. "He piloted the Strike for both of them, they clung to each other. I'd go as far and say if it's not because of her Archangel wouldn't have survived that war. But they got separated when Aegis self-destructed and Kira went missing. And I believe you guys were there when they last saw each other." He looked at the professor. "But how?"
The professor was about to answer when Meyrin called out Athrun. She was looking at one of their live cameras. It was showing a young man repeatedly punching a wall. It was Kira.
"I'll go get him." Athrun hurried out.
It's like Murrue's none existing headache is getting worse. "Kira just can't think straight when it comes to her, Mu what do I do?" she sounded defeated. "This is no different than last time."
They returned after a few minutes; Kira has tucked his hand inside his pocket but the smear of blood on his uniform says he was hitting that wall for quite a while now.
"So, Professor, how did you come across her?" Murrue continued when she saw Kira finally sitting on a chair and well enough to listen.
Everyone was focused on the man. "She was rescued by a remote-controlled GINN, was taken in by Blue Cosmos and at that same time LOGOS took Commander La Flaga's body. She was being treated in the lab that we managed to infiltrate. We took her."
Hesitating. "Professor, her voice is exactly like my friends', do you know if they used any gene treatment on her?" Shinn who was in the corner spoke.
Understanding what the young pilot was saying he answered. "We don't know that for sure, she was already being treated when we took her, if they acquired any samples, we have no data about it." And he looked at Kira again "..and she just fully woken up just a year ago."
"I believe she wasn't close to anyone here except for Commander Yamato?" He looked at the faces of her previous colleagues.
"Not really. She knows Miriallia Haw and the others but most times she only stays with Kira or in his room after doing her duties on the ship."
Heads turned to Kira. They know how he is with Lacus Clyne and everyone envied their relationship. But there is always something missing. As Pandora's box is slowly starting to open they are also seeing a glimpse of how he used to be before becoming the pilot that they look up to. Maybe this time they will understand why he always sits alone while staring at the distance, why he always looks so sad, always thinking of something, or maybe this time, somebody.
Contrary to the groups' reaction, the answer apparently made the Professor happy. "We were worried for a while," taking the attention to himself. "she's not friendly in the lab either. She comes up to the kids to check on Commander Yamato and she just hides in her room. We gave her the Version 1 or the V1 as we call it in the lab, to at least cheer her up. Hoping it will aid with her faster recovery."
"Kira, just please call me Kira Professor." Not used to formalities, he asked the professor while his eyes are glued on the floor. "I'm really grateful for what you did. Thank you very much for taking care of her."
The old man just smiled and patted the shoulder of the young coordinator who has his head bowed down. "Kira-kun, you were the first person she looked for when she woke up, and as soon as she regained control of her movement, she went to see you, I think you somehow understand why she didn't push through with it." He glanced at Lacus. "Knowing that you're safe is her source of happiness, but I won't lie she suffers the consequences too." He didn't hear a reply, he didn't need to. He just gave the boy a squeeze on the shoulder.
The professor turned his focus on the table. Taking a deep breath to ease the tension in his chest. "So, this is Minerva," he pointed at the white triangle on the screen, then he enhanced the data. It showed them the people in their parameter, singling out people who are doing things out of the ordinary like a soldier eating a chocolate bar behind a tank, two soldiers sneaking in cigarettes and another soldier drinking alcohol from a coffee cup. It also showed scans of whatever every person is carrying with them. The professor keyed in a name and it showed a young boy playing in the backyard of a school. "That's my grandson, he doesn't know me but it's the price I'm willing to pay to keep him and my daughter safe." He keyed in more tags narrowing their surveillance; weapons. "As I said earlier, we can make these weapons self-destruct or lock themselves." And then he started showing more complicated features of the device. Mu, Andrew, and Kisaka who was late exchanged ideas about the device. The run-through lasted for almost two hours then the device disconnected.
"I guess that covered everything." The professor jokingly said. "Commander Joule, we will be watching your decent and I am asking permission to disembark with my crew if you would allow us."
"Didn't you say you needed to be on earth?" Mu La Flaga asked the old man.
"Ah yes, we need to sync the device at the ORB facilities too, illegally, but I would formally ask permission from the Representative now." He said with a hint of shame in his voice.
Cagalli's rage rose but it went down immediately as she understood that they are only doing it for their own safety and their cause has been laid out to be in line with her own goal. "Fine, I'll allow it." She said pouting.
"Thank you very much, Princess." He bowed his head. "But since our new device isn't working, I will be going back to our lab and try to fix it. I will leave the girls here until they get to earth, my friends from there will take care of them as soon as they get off." He paused. "To be truthful, we've noticed something strange on earth lately, and we are trying our best to just hurry up and have an eye on EA."
They tensed up. "There have been constant deaths or accidents and it doesn't tie-up with the data. But that's all we have."
Minerva (Cafeteria) 2 hours before decent.
Meyrin scanned the room for an empty table. She saw several, but no brave soul took the ones around the longest table in the room, the one beside the counter; the captain's table. She's sure she can make out dark clouds over it if she just squints a little. She dropped her shoulder and dragged the blonde girl with her to sit on the table next to them followed by Lunamaria. "Here, let's just order for them alright?" she smiled handing the menu to Setsuna who was concentrating on the next table. Cagalli, Kira, Lacus, Athrun, Dearka, Yzak, Mu, Murrue and Andrew.
"So many commanders in this ship." She commented.
It made Meyrin turn and she just nodded.
"Those are the pilots right?" she is now looking at the other table near the door.
"Yeah, you know them? Shinn and that's Commander Hahnenfuss probably teaching him about military conducts again."
"Mmmm, I've read the data." She answered writing down her order.
Lunamaria who was listening to their conversation raised her hand at the girl on the door to which Alice immediately saw.
"How is she?" Setsuna asked.
Alice just shook her head. " Still bawling, probably gonna cry herself to sleep again." She sighed.
"Did you say it?" handing the menu to Alice and her order.
"Yeah... "
"Say what?" Luna blinked curiously.
"Ah, it's a thing we tell her when she's like this. Dead girls don't cry over their ex-boyfriends." She smiled. "This time it was dead girls don't cry when -." She paused sensing that people are listening to her. "it was her decision to "stay dead" ". She nervously chuckled.
Meyrin collected the orders and gave it to the waiter. She rested her elbows on the table and rested her chin on her palms. "So what is she like?"
Alice looked to her left and then to her right. "Well, she's very stubborn, she always wants to get things her way, very spoiled, very straightforward which is kinda scary sometimes." She looked up searching for more descriptions. "She's just really difficult to deal with in general but she cares so much about.." she didn't finish but just pointed her thumb secretly towards Kira.
"Huh..!?" Luna thought. "I don't understand... Commander Yamato dated her?"
"I was expecting for like another saint-like qualities." Meyrin smiled at Luna.
Alice just laughed as she leaned in closer to the girls "You guys are not the only one thinking that."
"Hey! I think they are perfect!" Setsuna crossed her arms leaning back on her chair with pouted lips and closed eyes. "He was the calm to my storm. A lighthouse for my hurricane. He loved my wild and let me shelter in his arms." She proudly declaimed, opening just one eye to check for anyone who acknowledged. Which the three people on the table just raised their eyebrows and nodded in agreement.
The girls finished their meals and the sisters happily escorted the girls to their quarters.
Cagalli fisted her hand as she pushed her chair back "Why are you not saying anything!?" frustrated at her brothers' silence "At least say something to Lacus!"
The male she was talking too just turned his head away.
"Just forget her! You turn into this pathetic person when it comes to her!" she's still angry.
Athrun pulled Cagalli out of the room before she says anything else.
Kira just stood up "I'm sorry Lacus, let's talk tomorrow ok?."
The pink-haired female just understandingly nodded.
On route to Carpentaria Base
Lacus was standing on the edge of Minerva's deck the wind blowing on her beautiful pink hair. She can smell the salt in the air and she's enjoying the sound of the seagulls it reminds her of the house they had in ORB. She felt a presence behind her and she immediately hugged him.
"Did you sleep well?" she asked.
"Yeah," he lied "we better get inside soon, it looks like we will pass thru a storm" he invited her in as soon as he saw the dark clouds in front of them.
She didn't let go.
"I'm sorry for what happened last night. Will you give me some time to figure things out?" his voice was filled with guilt. He is aware that the situation is uncomfortable for her and his reactions are hurting her but he felt like his own body is betraying him. He is no longer in control of himself. He felt the hug around him tighten as he ushered both of them inside the ship.
Minerva (Bridge)
The ocean was raging from outside the window. Alice and Setsuna stood amazed by how the lighting strikes flash across the sky. "I've never seen a real one before!" Setsuna excitedly announced.
"Where is sheeee? She's already an hour late. We will arrive at the base soon." Alice stared at the door.
The same people are inside the bridge, all curious to see how they calibrate the V1 on earths atmosphere.
"…sea sick"
They heard someone say it.
"Did you say something Kira?" Athrun who was beside the male asked but he didn't get an answer.
The door slid open and the room was filled with the scent of roses. Yzak stared at the girl, it reminded her of a scared girl inside the Vesalius while Dearka remembers a gunshot. Kira remembers something else.
"Oh my goodness you really smell so good all the time!" Setsuna almost run to hug Flay when she noticed the girls' face. "Oh goodness you look awful are you ok?"
It's right there Flay just keep your eyes on the table and walk straight. She struggled. "Why is everything moving around?" she complained to herself struggling to reach the table to get her balance back. She was not wearing the outer blazer of her uniform, instead, she used it to cover herself like a blanket which revealed her white mini bodycon dress as she swayed to get to the table.
"You look sick, do you wanna go to the infirmary?" Meyrin helped her. "What perfume are you using?" she looked up at the taller girl she was assisting.
She tried to open her eyes a little more to look at the girl helping her. "That's just my soap" she tried to answer without hurling, the more she opens her eyes everything seems to move more.
"Flay, are you seasick?" Alice pulled the girl to where she's supposed to connect the device.
"Yes." She plugged it in and entered her credentials. "Alice, can you do this? I don't understand what I'm supposed to do." Her voice was low.
"Ok, I'll handle it. Go get some medicine and rest, we will wake you up when we get there." Alice assured her.
"I will take you." Setsuna offered to lead the girl outside.
"Hey!" Yzak with his usual frown. "Why don't you just send her home to her family?"
Alice was shocked. "Huh? Me?" she asked but the person asking didn't answer. She looked around for help but everyone is also curious. " She doesn't have any family anymore," she answered while calibrating the V1 to Minerva's earth settings. "From what we know, she lost her home when Heliopolis was destroyed and some days after she lost her dad on the battlefield, he was aboard the 8th fleet advance force. It was her idea to take Lacus as a hostage to save her father but they only did it after her father's ship was sunk—" she was surprised with what she's saying she covered her mouth.
"Keep going," Yzak ordered.
"Yzak!" Athrun approached the silver-haired coordinator.
"I know it's us. So just let her continue. You want to know too!"
Alice just stared at the Commanders in front of her. "Uhh, so, her father was a high ranking member of Blue Cosmos." She keyed in names on the device. "Here." The surveillance photos of Cagalli, Lacus, and Flay appeared on the screen. " This was on the day Heliopolis was attacked. Cagalli-hime was there checking for the secret military weapons ORB was making and Lacus-sama was preparing to sing for the Junius 7 memorial service. Flay, however, was in the mall shopping with her friends. She clearly does not involve herself with any of this." She gestured around her. "Unlike Cagalli-hime and Lacus-sama she's not prepared for any of this to happen. She lost her home, her only family, she volunteered to serve the military, captured by the enemy to be thrown out in an ongoing battlefield on a life pod? Gets taken in by the wrong side just to be thrown out again on the battlefield. I mean, she's not combat capable like Cagalli-hime she doesn't have the enhanced body of a coordinator like Lacus-sama. She's just a natural, a teenager who liked cakes and shopping." She just let the words flow out." I'm so sorry, I'm not usually the exposition type." she chuckled. "Her life was a series of unfortunate events like, we always imagine her as a flower taken out from a garden and thrown into a battlefield. She never belonged here."
"Oh, Alice you and Setsuna always liked her!" A female appeared on the door. "Claire Albert" she introduced herself as she bowed. "I'm here to pick them up." They have already arrived in the base without even knowing it. "But Alice.." she judgingly looked at the girl. "You never mentioned her skill set. Flay Allster is naturally talented in emotional and psychological manipulation to people. And that what makes her dangerous." She walked towards Yzak to show her identity card.
"Just because your boyfriend broke up with you in hopes of dating her doesn't make her dangerous, Claire." Keying in the final codes on the device she got up.
"Well, we don't know what she's planning! She's a member of Blue Cosmos that's why they saved her! You people never listen! She's already manipulated all of you!"
Alice just sighed. "Well if she's so good at manipulating people why hasn't she manipulated you into liking her?" she asked in a tired voice.
"Because she knows I'm, onto her!" her eyes were wide like the palms she's spreading in front of her.
"All the more reason to manipulate you!" her answer equaled her eagerness. She turned to Yzak back to her normal expression. Showing him the status of the V1 "Captain, uh, Commander?" she tilted her head "Uh, Commander Joule, thank you for allowing us into the ship. We will immediately notify you if we find any valuable information on anything. Unfortunately, there is no way to communicate with us, if you need anything just send us some sign, we will know it." She faked a smile hoping it will help make sense of what she was saying. However, the scowl on the blue-eyed commander's face didn't change.
Next update will be in a week or two
RR!
