Chapter 9: The Graduation, and a Surprise Attack (Part 1)

Lina's Pov

Aprox. Half way through grad of Red agents

"so Lina" Luneth asked me as we watched another student acquire their proof of graduation, " have you noticed that the Mazoku haven't attacked since that propaganda raid 3 months ago?" he asked. "I guess, but don't knock it. Next thing you know there will be Mazoku all over the city" I replied. "I hope your wrong…" he said as they entered the W's. "Whys that?" I asked. Because when it comes to stuff like this you're usually right and that would be hell" he said. "Well now that I think about it" I said as my pager went off, I ignored it. "They have been down in attacks lately…" I finished as the last student got their PoG award thank sweet Ciepheed that this is over… I said as the students- er, Graduates left the room. My pager vibrated again, and it was starting to get on my nerves. "well at the very least at least it's a good day outside" I said to my brother as I walked toward the window in time to see an MH60 Black Hawk helicopter fly by the window and get blown to pieces as it neared the other side of the building. "What the hell?" I heard Luneth mutter as he looked over in the direction of the cloud of smoke, then the intercom of the building started to blare "WARRNING WARNING! WE ARE UNDER ATTACK! ALL HANDS REPORT TO STATIONS. THIS IS NOT A DRILL, REPEAT THIS IS NOT A DRILL. Without giving it a second thought I ran to my dorm, broke the lock on it, went in and grabbed my M4A1 Assault Rifle w/ laser pointer as my pager buzzed again, this time I threw it out the window, and ran down all the flights of stairs to meet up with my unit.

Once the siren started to wail I ran up a flight of stairs and into my dorm, I quickly changed from my SSDF main office uniform, into my flight gear and hitched a ride on the Hangar/service elevator witch Ironically was taking mine and Iggy's planes up to the Sky runway on the roof, let me just say, it was the longest elevator ride of my life. Once near the top I started the engines, by the time they were ready to taxi the elevator reached the top level of the building. And somewhere along the way my co. pilot and Iggy's crew showed, and we entered the runway right next to each other (hey this runway is big enough for 3 B-52's to take off in V-formation, so 2 F-18's isn't really that big) we then accelerated tearing down the runway and into the sky.

Zel and I we sitting in the troop transport with a few others waiting for the Squad Commander who one of the soldier's had paged twice since. But they weren't gonna let the driver move until their Sq. Commander arrived. I was starting to wonder if their "commander" even cared about the attack, but the others said she did. Now I was wondering who "she" was (A/N any guesses?) but I wouldn't need to wait long cause just as I came up with that thought she came charging towards our Transport. "Is that Lina?" I heard Zel whisper to me, "I think so" I responded as the femme in question jumped onboard and the driver started to pull out of the parking area. "So I have two new recruits in my unit eh?" she said and one of the others said "4 if you count the new medic were getting once they graduate" one of her other squad mates said as gunfire could be heard. "lets just hope we don't meet "much" trouble" Lina said looking out the back, "no offence or anything commander but that coming from you usually means there will be severe amounts of trouble" an older and more familiar voice said. "Gourry! What are you doing here!" she asked quite surprised. "I was sent to your squad, why else would I be here?" he said as the roaring tanks dove by. "Never mind," she said as the transport hit another bump "anyways were heading to the capital building, Intel reports that the Mazoku are actually targeting Mayor Pillionelle di Seyruun. But, we all know how reliable they are when it comes down to split second decisions" Lina briefed us. "So we have no idea if that's their true intention?" Zel asked. "Nope" she responded.

"Sir" Dynast said "I have reports that the Invasion of Seyruun city is well underway and that they caught the SSDF completely by surprise, as for our agents in London, England we haven't heard from them in several days" he was very informative to me, probably the best of my servants. "That is very good news, except for our agents in London not informing us, I still find it funny that they fell for our two agents in their organization…" I mused to my self out loud. "Two sir?" Dynast asked. "Yes, well you know about Xellos, the Nano Surgeon, but I have some one even higher up, do you remember our dear friend Gauv?" Dynast's expression changed from confused to hatred like that, "Why yes I remember him, it's hard not to after what he did 10 years ago" Dynast responded. "Well it would seem like he's trying to earn our respect again considering he's working with the Green Agents of the SSDF" I said as Dynast had a look of shock on his face. "He's what!" he practically yelled at me " I could be doing a better job them him at this!" Dynast yelled trying to prove something. "look he was simply the best choice" I said trying to calm him down. "How is that traitorous scum the best choice!" he screamed. "BECAUSE WE SEALED HIS MAZOKU POWER WHEN HE BETRAYED US 10 YEARS AGO!" I yelled at him causing him to flinch backwards, "THEY CAN'T SENSE THAT HES A MAZU EVEN IF THEY TRIED! BECAUSE IT'S UNDETECTIBLE! YOU MORON!" I blared at him, "anyway leave me" I said turning away. "y-yes sir" he said retreating.
