Hong Kong Shatterdome, Communications room
"Let me get this straight." U.S. Representative Agent Felix said. "You sent three powerful jaegers, six talented pilots down to the breach with a nuclear device to destroy it."
"Yes si-" Pentecost said before being cut off.
"And at the end of the mission the breach is still there while two of the jaegers where damaged and are now being repaired, while the other has been destroyed trying to destroy the breach." Felix said.
"Yes sir, but it was worth a try." Pentecost said.
"Oh really, those jaegers could have been defending a coast line and killing kaiju. But instead you send them to their possible deaths, and do you know how much it costs to repair even one." Felix said.
"I know but there is no other alternatives out there!" Pentecost said.
"The U.N. is proposing to build a wall around the entire Pacific Ocean Major." Felix said.
"Sir, a wall is made to block people, not five hundred foot monsters, and also the cost for it is easily twenty times the cost of the jaeger program, if not a hundred times." Pentecost said.
"I'll talk to the U.N. council and they will see if they should divert funding to the Wall of Peace program, that is final Major, good night." Felix said. *Ending transmission*
"Idiots." Pentecost said with a sigh of defeat. "Mako, clear my schedule, i'm heading to the U.N. in a couple of days, you are in charge until I get back."
"Yes sensei." Mako said.
In his office he had a glass of brandy and was thinking of what the agent had said. He knew that sending them down there could have ended their lives, but he had to do something. He couldn't just let innocent people die knowing there could be a way to stop the breach from birthing any more kaiju. "What am I gonna do." Pentecost said.
"You could stop moping and stop them from building a wall that they think can stop monsters that can break through buildings like butter." Pentecost then look up and saw Katie in the doorway.
"What do you want pilot?" Pentecost said.
"Just checking up of a friend, I heard the conversation and it was dumb." Katie said.
"Yes, but should you be with the other pilots looking over the repairs?" Pentecost questioned.
"Yeah, but I thought why not see the old man. I mean really, brandy? It's a bit old school." Katie said.
"Like your Jaeger before the upgrade?" Pentecost said with a slight laugh.
"HA, I knew that you had a funny side, Markus owes me $20 now." Katie said with a grin.
"You actually bet if I had a funny side? I should court-martial you for that." Pentecost said.
"But you won't, here's some good alcohol bye the way." Katie then handed him a bottle of 1917 whiskey.
"And you call me old." Pentecost said with a chuckle. He opened the bottle and was greeted by a pleasant sweet smell. He poured some into his glass and drank a little, he was caught off guard by the strong kick it had. "It's like being kicked by a horse." Pentecost said with a cough.
"You'll get use to it." Katie said leaving."And don't give up on us just yet." With that she left leaving Pentecost with a grin.
"I never did." Pentecost said.
In the capital of Xadia
"We've been here for FIVE HOURS, WE LITERALLY SAVED YOUR QUEEN, SHOULDN'T WE BE TREATED AS HERO'S!" Anthony yells through the prison halls trying to get someone's attention.
"They don't care how loud you yell, they'll never come." Abby said with annoyance in her voice.
"Well i'm not gonna rot in a cell for the rest of my life." Anthony said with a snark.
Then there was a thunderous crash from the prison door opening down the hall. Out came General Xara, and three guards heading toward there cell. Abby got up from the bed and went to the cell door to see who was coming. The general then look at them with a disgusted look on her face. "You are lucky that the queen ordered me to keep you alive." She then opened the cell door and ordered Anthony and Abby to follow her.
"Where are you taking us?" Abby said.
"The queen wishes to see you, even though I wished against it." General Xara said.
"Well aren't you considerate." Anthony said in a mocking tone.
"Watch yourself human, I can kill you in twelve different ways." Xara said.
"But you won't, I mean what would the qu-" Anthony was soon cut off by a pain in his gut.
"She said to bring you to her, but not in one piece." Xara said with a grin.
As they got to the meeting room they both saw the giant doors leading into the room. "Someone's compensating for something." Anthony said before being smacked in the back of the head.
"Do you think this is a joke, They could kill us if they wanted to!" Abby said with venom in her voice.
As the doors opened they were meet with a dining table with food, candles, and very comfy looking seats. They were escorted to the center of the of the table and were seated. "So what is this about?" Abby said with a confused look on her face.
The guards didn't say anything but instead stood behind them to keep them from escaping. Then on the other side of the room were a much larger set of doors. Then Xara stood up from her seat as well did the other elves. The doors then sprang open with a thunderous roar, revealing the Dragon Queen.
"Hello everyone, and humans." The Dragon Queen said with a snark. "We will be having a feast to the defeat of the monster."
Anthony the budded in and said. "We killed the kaiju, not you." Everyone looked at him with an annoyed face then turned back to the queen.
"I was getting to that before you rudely interrupted me." The Dragon Queen said.
"Oh, then my apologies, please carry on." Anthony said.
"We have defeated the beast with help from our new allies, even though they are human." The Dragon Queen said.
"Okay hold up, why do you hate us so much!?" Anthony said.
"Pardon, do you really not know or are you not taught this?" The Dragon Queen said.
"Not know what, you keep calling us humans like it's an insult, so i'd like to know why you hate us so much." Anthony said. The room fell silent then a few whispers from the elves made them feel uneasy.
"What did you do this time?" Abby said in a hurry.
"Why do you automatically think I did something?" Anthony said.
The elves then looked at them and said. "So you really don't know about the dark wizard."
"What?" Abby and Anthony both said with confusion.
Hong Kong Shatterdome
"I can't believe you won the bet." Markus said while handing Katie the $20.
"Oh, the sweet smell of victory." Katie said with a grin.
"So what is the major gonna do now that there gonna shut down the jaeger program?" Tim said. There was a silence that filled the room until the door opened and Major Pentecost came in.
"I'm going to the U.N. senate and try to keep the jaeger program, and i'll need your help." Pentecost said with a stern voice. "Markus and Katie, you will come with me to the meeting and stop the bill from passing."
"Oh yeah, let's do this!" Markus said
"Then come with me, it will be a long trip but it will be all worth it when we stop the bill." Pentecost said. As they left the pilots were filled with hope that they can save the jaeger program and keep on killing kaiju.
