Shinra Trooper: commander Sephiroth.

Sephiroth: what is it?

Shinra Trooper: HQ has another mission for you.

Sephiroth: have someone else handle it, only call me if it's something serious.

Shinra Trooper: yes sir…

The Trooper soon leaves the battlefield as Sephiroth continues to look out to the sky.

In another area a man is seen along with his machine standing in a battlefield where many soldiers from the different factions are dead by his hands soon someone calls to him.

?: brother.

?2: what is it Nero?

Nero: those bastards wants us to continue hunting for important places where the ether is being kept… brother Vice.

The man known as touches the collar that's around his neck, Nero is seen having one as well.

Nero: yes brother.

The scene changes to Shinck whose sleeping after a long day as he does he suddenly has a nightmare, a nightmare of his past of endlessly fighting and losing his home and entire family to war.

(Gundam Unicorn – Remind you)

In the dream he sees many people dying and losing their homes and friends along with their family, his included, then he finds himself fighting as a child soldier trying to survive on the battlefield.

Shinck: … let this end… dear god… someone anyone… please just… let this madness end…

Kill or be killed, loss after loss, death after death it just kept happening around him as fought to just survive until he was knocked out cold by a blast from a bomb.

It was dark and silent nothing can be found not even person or light this scared Shinck deeply as he thought of one thing.

Shinck: I'm I going to die all alone… ? Then what is the point of me or anyone living in this cruel universe…

Just as he felt hopeless and alone, not able to do anything he then saw two lights in front of him that looked like birds glowing bright red he then started chasing after them as they light up the darkness as guide.

?: the light… follow the light…

?2: we guide you to safety.

Shinck: wait! Pleas! Where are taking me to!?

Shinck continues to chase after the two birds as they continue to guide him.

Then Shinck wakes up from the strangest dream he had in a long time along with his past.

(End of music)

Fatman: oh your wake how was your sleep.

Shinck: not very pleasant but also a look back at my life.

Fatman: your life? Hmmm… I remember the moment I met you, you were trying very hard to survive, along with the strong will to live.

Shinck: yeah I was a complete wreck when you found me along with teaching me how to be an A.C pilot.

Fatman: yeah you seem to have a talent to being an incredible pilot, the best of the best.

Shinck: I highly doubt that.

Fatman: trust me I believe so. Well since you still look a bit tired how you take a break, I'll have Church not send you on any missions for a while.

Shinck: alright then. Thanks Fatman.

Fatman: don't thank me next time we will have a serious mission soon so be fully rested until then..

The scene soon changes to the Redguns meeting up with there old friends from Rhodes Island.

Strayed: hey Jaune long time no see.

Jaune: yeah it's been a while and it's good to see you guys again.

Exusiai: it good to see you too. Hmmm? I see you have a new member but I don't see Nora though where is she?

Jaune: … she retired from being a pilot and chose to open an orphanage for children who don't have a home to return to or lost to war and conflict.

Texas: we see.

Joe: the moment Nora left she asked me to look after our commander here and keep him out of trouble

Strayed: I see you went back to using your old A.C.

Jaune: yeah I have along with upgrading it as for the one I used at the end of the Coral war. Left it with RaD for safe keeping.

Strayed: in case of an emergency like what happened with Rubicon huh.

Jaune: that's right but something tells me there's something else you guys want to talk about.

Texas: … there is.

Lappland: and it's not good. Not for us, the factions or the kingdoms.

Jaune: ?

(Armored Core 4 – Blind alley)

At a base belonging to the Agnus kingdom it is seen being attacked by an unknown A.C which is not affiliated with any of the other factions.

Agnus soldier: we need help!

Agnus soldier 2: this enemy is tearing us apart!

The A.C was able to destroy the main gate to the base the pilot then jumped out his machine and entered the base and started heading to the control room he takes down many soldiers with his giant sword without killing any of them just knocking them out once he reached the control room he started downloading important information on the kingdoms.

?: okay… let's see what you guys have here shall we.

The data soon started being downloaded on the many bases on Aionios that belongs to Agnus along with where there located at once it was done the unknown mercenary takes the data and heads back to his A.C.

Once he boards it and was about to leave he gets contacted by his operator.

?: be careful Zack. An A.C is heading towards your direction.

Zack: huh? There is? I see it.

The unknown A.C lands in front of Zack but it looks like the ones Arqubus uses but is colored from the Agnus forces meaning it is being used by one of the kingdoms now.

Agnus soldier: how do you like this invaders! We now have access to your technology now!

Zack: hmmm. This your first time piloting an A.C well let's see how you use it then!

Zack quickly attacks the Agnus A.C and damages it the soldier fire back at him but Zack proved he had a lot more experience then him and is taken out but not killed.

Zack: sorry buddy. But you have a long way to go until you reach mine or anyone else's level that can pilot an A.C but at least you gave it your best. Later!

Zack soon left the mission area confirming that the mission is complete. Then everything fades to black.

Now on to the reviews.

To Gojira: thank you.

Now then I will show you all the list of that is being used by the new characters and old ones.

Strayed - Savage Hound: Head - VP-44S, Body - FIRMEZA, Arms - BASHO, Legs- NACHTREHER.

Okay everyone that is all of the used by the Characters for now.

If your all wondering why Nora is not with the Redguns anymore? It's because she is tired of the fighting and decided to retire as a pilot and help those who don't have a place to call home anymore. And as you all suspect Shinck has a connection to 621 and Ayre from his past.

Now we have three Chapter's of the first Arc left. Thank you for reading take care and I will see you next time bye.
