Aiden watched as the enemy ReZELs zoomed away into the smoke cloud. After that he used his remaining energy to retreat back to the Salvation.

"Christ, that was hard. Luckily the Phantoma held out long enough." Aiden was rapidly approaching on the Salvation and requested to land.

Dreacons fins moved again to block the Jesta's beam fire. Dreacon saw as the smoke was settling that the enemy force was already on the retreat. Dreacon quickly grabbed the damaged Grand Armor for his left arm.
"this is Big Boss to command, checking in, All systems green, but the Left arms Grand Armor has been damaged, i think we can fix it.

Pericles-
Kathryan Flew beside the ship just off the MS bay in order to guard the MS teams during their landing.
Still the images that man 'Dreacon" had shown her hung heavy on her mind.

-Salvation-

The stealth frigate had all its forces regathered near a small crater where the shadow would hide its physical presence. The Wolf Pack was the first group to arrive, followed by Ryder and the two others. Little did the others know but they had been tailed by an almost invisible presence.

With the rest of the team starting to dock he hung back and looked out over the lunar landscape in B mode. He noticed a dark blue figure keeping to the shadows causing him to go on alert. "Unknown spotted! Moving to intercept." He aimed his gunpod at the figure but was stopped when the figure tried to initiate communication with him.

Ryder opened communication on his end and found himself looking at a helmeted figure in a special forces flight suit.

(Messer) "So Lt. it was you out there pretending to be some bigshot ace. You haven't grown up a bit since you got fell into Federation hands." The figure laughed as the Salvation joined the conversation.

(Captain) "Well well well if it isn't Captain Messer of the LC Defense Forces. I was certain it was you trying to contact us."

(Messer) "I'm just glad to see you all doing well. Though I'm disappointed you guys move from one pocket to another without considering the consequences. Anyways I'm sending you coordinates and entrance codes to our base. I'll talk to you in person there." With that the fighter turned tails and shot off leaving Ryder standing there feeling foolish.

"I've always hated that guy..." Ryder mumbled not realizing the bridge was still listening.

(Captain) "Can't help you there. Suck it up and lets get going." He informally ordered Ryder to dock so they could take off again.

The Messiah entered the hangar and the Salvation started to leave the safety of the Lunar shadow. Their destination was LLF headquarters and the next stage of their own personal journey. Of course the Captain didn't tell DC where they were or going and instead planned to wait until they knew just what was going on first.

-MS Launching Bay, Federation Warship Pericles-

Erwin broke off the contact with the enemy MS, and flew back to Pericles, and landed on the MS launching bay. After parking his Jesta Blitz, he opened the cockpit, and removed his helmet. He made a long sigh afterwards.

"We been defeated?"Erwin asked himself, though Erwin were considered a formiable pilot within the ranks of the Federation, he didn't fight in many actual conflicts, this kind of defeat made a deep blow on him.

He then walked back to the ready room, he packed his pilot suit and helmet into his locker, and the other MS pilots tend to ignore Erwin, as they felt Erwin an oddball onboard Pericles.

-Grey Wolf-

Mai, following Petty Officer Gavin Rend, Entered the bridge of the Grey Wolf.

Gavin came to attention and said, “I have the last survivor of the Ebinshire. Would the captain like to hear her report?”

Mai did her best to stand still, but her eyes kept being drawn to the displays and consoles filling the bridge.

Gavin Rand looked over at Mai, who nodded.

“Yes Sir, thank you Sir.” Gavin said.

"Follow me then." he said as he walked out the door and down the hall toward the captain's quarters.

- Rawn -

"Yet the most efficient and reliable way, as you put it, was also the most costly. The loss of the PT was acceptable, but the loss of the pilot was not.

I personally consider that a failure to properly, let alone efficiently and reliably, carry out your orders.

It would have been a simple matter to sever the arm that was holding the captain with a well placed beam shot. Something I know you could do. You both have excellent skills, but if you can't use them to their full extent and think out of the box when needed, then you are of no use to me.
Consider this before you act so rashly again.

Dismissed."

The Twins

The Captain's words were incompatible with the directives of the 20 series but they stored them for later consideration. They stood, saluted and left; heading in the opposite direction from Mai's appraoch.

Mai and Gavin Rend were ushered into the Captain’s quarters. Mai felt self-conscious, she must have seemed so small and childlike with her oversized uniform and standing next to someone as tall as Gavin.

((Erwin, don't decide things on your own. If Krager wanted to debrief the pilots, I'd write that. He's not an NPC))

-Pericles-

On the bridge, Krager breathed a sigh of relief. The enemy force had withdrawn before crippling his ship completely. That alone was cause for concern. That that battle had been a trap was obvious, but the way the Fighter -types had withdrawn made him think that could also be...

"A distraction," he finished aloud.

"Sorry, sir? Did you say something?" enquired his XO.

"No. No, nothing. Just set a course back to HQ."

"Aye, sir. Helm, set a course for..."

The voices faded into the background as Krager sat back in his chair and considered what had occurred.

Meanwhile, outside the ship two ReZELs flew escort duty, after they had refueled. They would not be caught unawares so easily again. Inside, the remaining pilots were gathering together in the ready room. Ayin had arrived before the others and was still there when the others came in.

"Hey, new guy, those were some pretty fancy moves ot there. Where'd you learn stuff like that?" one asked when he saw Ayin sitting alone by the lockers. There were general murmurs of agreement.

"Dunno," he replied, making a vague motion toward his head. "But it came, naturally, like I'd done it before, you know. it was... it was wierd, you know." He dropped his head into his hands, frustrated by his inability to remember.

The oldest member, a man who'd been flying suits since their inception in the Federation military, sat down next to him and laid a hand on his shoulder. "Don't worry about it kid. Things will come back to ya."

Ayin smiled weakly, and the pilots returned to their tasks around the room.

Dreacon looked over the damage to the left arm of the Grand Armour. "Thats what i get for using Inferior metals to make my armour." he said.
"Easy fix though." he worked on it from the launch deck in case he was needed again.

-Kathryan-
Sat in her windam on standby... and waited for her inevitable call to the captains ofice to explane her actions.

- Chapter 17 -

- DC space flagship, Macht -

All was going well with the recovery operation. The Northampton class ship had been secured and half the fleet was now beginning the process of towing and escorting the hull back to the hidden DC base while the Macht and a few other ships remained where they were to await the return of the Salvation or an update on what they were doing.

-Salvation-

The ship finally reached its destination within a hidden facility at the bottom of a mid size crater on the darkside of the moon. The Wolves were greeted with what appeared to be a welcome committee made up of cheering pilots and crews at the return of one of the last surviving LC ships.

The Captain contacted the hangar where the pilots were still getting out of their machines. "Sorry for this but it seems were are wanted for a photo op. Please gather in uniform so we can meet these guys." The Captain of course was excited because he had always believed other friends had survived and with the appearance of Trace he felt a new path for them. He had an idea what would happen here and was already preparing a report to DC thinking they would be interested in what was hidden out here.

-Ryder-

He had assembled the team and with his UN Spacy inspired uniform. He looked at the members of Wolf Pack as well as Dreacon and Aiden with a smile. "Seems like we might have found more friends. I expect proper etiquette because we are guests here. Also word of interest, there appears to be a high ranking person here who led the LC Defense Forces back in the day. His name is Trace Messer and I'm not sure what his rank here is but he was a Captain ready to move up to Fleet Commander before the dismantling of our forces. Please show him respect should he address you. If this goes well we could get needed supplies and a place to run to besides DC when things get bad. Any questions?"

He hoped this went well because despite his personal hatred for the talented Messer he respected the guy.

- DC space flagship, Macht -

Since the fleet was to return to their base as soon as the former LC forces had returned, Hellbore decided that now was as god a time as any to talk to Junkers about the proposed upgrades to the Freedom.

Guessing she'd be in her quarters, Hellbore made his way their and rang the glorified doorbell to announce his presence.

Lily was looking over intelligence reports about the recent battle on the moon when the door chime rang.

- Hellbore -

Hellbore entered when he was bidden and saluted the woman seated behind the desk. She seemed entirely to young to be a Lieutenant Colonel. Pulling out the data pad he pulled up the EX-1 specs.

"Col. Junkers, I have a request. The maintenance crew have detailed a set of adjustments and upgrades to the Freedom Custom. I'd like it if you reviewed and signed off on the necessary paperwork if you deem it appropriate. Ma'am."

He held out the data pad for the Colonel to take.

Taking the pad, Lily looked over the request. It seemed simple enough and shouldn't cost too much either as it was more of a series of general performance upgrades more than anything else.
It seems that even a Gundam can become outdated after a while.
"Very well. You may proceed with the upgrades. We're not likely to be making any major moves ourselves for a while so you should have plenty of time to do this."

Taking back the data pad, Hellbore stood straighter and saluted smartly.

"Thank you ma'am. I'll let the maintenance crew know right way."

Turning he left the office and made his way to the hanger to tell the maintenance guys the good news.
