Cynthia Bridge

'Wanted to find out if I had anyone on second flight jump ship after that little altercation with the MPs."

Darius paused for a moment, leaning against the entrance of the bridge, then spoke up again.

'Did they ever find anyone to fill in for Duke. I heard he..didn't make it back with the rest of the men and women..'

For once in a blue moon, Darius snide look on his face had softened, the time in prison showing, though slightly, that he hadn't spent the whole time scheming ways to circumvent Granzi and torture naturals..

Rather, he felt that he had unfinished business now with the death of the man that had dragged his sorry ass back onto the ship.

Hector got up "Well man I am done, as full as a lil'piggy and ready to peep on the ladies bwahahahaha" was Hector joking around with matching grin. He then deposited the dishes and walked off with his face on his book and his giggle as free as a eagle.

Hector like always bumped into people while reading.

"Alright, let's talk later, Hector," Michael said, still eating his food slowly as Hector left the cafeteria. The only thoughts on his mind were when it was time to depart, and if he'd still get that date with Carrah.

Ed had flicked off the tv lazilly and rose from his seat stretching and yawning. Things were bustling with life, the young man felt restless so he made his way to the mobile suit hangar.

He quickly skirted past the Guaiz unit that had replaced Duke's and examined his own. It was exactly the same it was when they had landed from the sortie. The mechanics didn't even have time to go over his before they all were arrested.

Ed's gaze drew him to the cockpit. A bunch of boards were torn out. So someone did go after the suits. More likely then not it had probably something to do with the investigation that ZAFT had put on the unit. Rather annoyingly Ed began to start reinserting his communication board. It was an easy job and would save the mechanics some work.

- Armory 1 -

Clearance for all three ships was received in short order. The Cynthia slid seamlessly into movement, taking itself out of the Armory 1 harbor. A trio of GINNs from the local garrison escorted her out to the edge of Armory 1's airspace before doubling back to return home, their long blue thruster trails fading away toward the distant colony.

"All mobile suit pilots will assemble in the Cynthia's meeting room in three hours," Shema said as she sat into her command seat and crossed her legs. The coms officer was quick to relay that information.

Wayne Telk's slender physique had a way of making him look fast, or look like he lived fast. He didn't mind giving off that impression, and even styled his hair in a way that facilitated the concept. At that moment, he leaned back in a chair and had his legs propped up by the heel on a nearby table. He read a well-worn book on George Glenn. His uniform tunic was carelessly open.

He'd boarded the ship for his first time only an hour before it had departed the Armory 1 harbor. Having been stationed in the colony's garrison for close to half a year, Wayne was eager to take up the chance to set out with a battlegroup on a real assignment. It's top-secret nature was no bother to him, and its high risk only enticed him more.

After dropping off his personal effects in the quarters of a now dead man, Wayne had had no real inclination to find his team. They'd find him. According to the transfer papers, his new CO was some Red who'd probably slept her way through Academy. Whatever. Team leaders were interchangeable anyway, near as Wayne cared.

Jack had been running drills and sims on his brand-new GuAIZ R, since he'd been unable to find either his pilots or his CO while aboard. The 1MC announcement came through, ordering all pilots to assemble in the briefing room shortly. Might as well get cleaned up first; I'm a mess he chuckled as he pushed off his suit and headed to his quarters. He grabbed a short catnap, then changed into a fresh set of Reds and headed to the briefing room, hoping he wasn't the only pilot on this crate.

Hector is like always wander the halls of the Helga with pornographic literature in hand often giggling. He saw glimpse of a new person aboard the Helga and followed him to the lounge. Not one for wasting time to extinguish himself as the idiotic perv, he walked in with book in face and walked up to the new Wayne.

"Hi there Mister New Guy, like the ship? ummm whats your favorite porn, and do you have a sister who is cute???" was Hector not bothering to look away from his book as he let off a few perverted giggles.

Winry heard the announcement to gather in a briefing room within three hours, and exited her quarters. She headed to the lounge for some rest, when she noticed Hector grilling some poor guy about porn.

"HECTOR! WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?"

Hector quiting his game of mess with the new guy cause he was bored, turned to the his deep down secret crush. "Well reason one: I will rather stay a soldier then become the scumbag piece of sh*t known as my father, and reason two: cause I love seeing you so much, truly your beauty keeps me coming back for more" said Hector in his pervert tone as to bring no suspicion to himself, but actually looking away from his book.

But Hector being Hector, always hiding his true self quickly returned to his perverted book and threw in the perverted giggle he knew annoyed Winry.

Rob walked into the meeting room well ahead of the appointed meeting time. Taking a seat near the front he couldn't help but notice he was the first one here. Sighing, and attempting to relax even though the earlier banter from the engineers had made him slightly nervous, he kicked backed and waited for the meeting to start.

- Corridor, Outside Main Bridge -

Captain Zach Brant was quite surprised, no astounded that Darius would even care for another pilot. He though he had the man sized up, but he was certain that Darius's face had become softer, not as harsh. It didn't change the fact that darius was a womenizer who only cared for himself. Something Zach had already delt with by warning most of the female crew. Clearly though the man had something else in him that wasn't necessarily evil.

"To answer your first question, yes we had some minor crew members jump ship. And to your second, we do have a replacement for Duke. I have been informed he is quite an adequate replacement."

Turning towards the bridge Zach took a few strides before Commander Granzi's announcement reverberated throughout the ship. Stopping, Zach half-way turned towards Darius.

"It is a shame, I served with Duke throughout the last war. Darius, I hope you look out for your team like Duke did for his. Oh, and next time we meet, a salute will be in order."

Leaving the red coat behind, Zach strode off to the main bridge.

Wayne turned his head nonchalantly to the man who entered with his nose in a book. This second man, in a pilot's uniform, rattled off a couple questions without looking up from his book. Heartbeats later, a blue-haired woman, also a mobile suit pilot, strode in and wailed "Hector! What are you doing here?"

The man - Hector, apparently - turned and replied with overwrought sentiments. The kind a man such as this, clearly the jester and gadfly of the team, used to particularly annoy his female comrades.

The woman, stuck-up type that she apparently was, replied in a prickly negative. She'd apparently had to deal with this Hector's antics for some time, but didn't quite have the personality to respond in a manner that didn't goad him on, if unintentionally.

Something told Wayne this Hector's interactions with his compatriots would prove amusing. Hopefully the guy wouldn't get himself killed off on this mission. The woman gave Wayne the distinct impression that she was your typical busybody girl; too square to be worth much attention in her own right.

No matter. Wayne would play nice for now.

After Hector responded to the woman's indignance (and revealed her given name as "Winry"), Wayne clapped his book closed and stood.

"Wonderful to meet you both, really. I'm Wayne. Wayne Telk. New guy for Team 4."

Shema floated into the chamber to find all eighteen mobile suit pilots of Granzi Team seated. They stood at attention, which is where Shema left them until she made landing at the head of the too-small room.

"All of you opted to return. In one respect, I underestimated you.

"Now that you're here, everything you see, hear, say, and do is highly classified. I will not repeat anything.

"Fourteen hours ago, ZAFT intelligence intercepted an attempted broadcast from Natural supremacists calling themselves ATLAS. Intelligence judged their approximate location based on shoal zone debris visible in the video's background. Our mission is to locate this terrorist group and bring them to justice."

By now at least some of the pilots might have been wondering why such a mission would be conducted in secret. ZAFT frequently conducted anti-terrorist operations throughout space, be it against genocidal Natural supremacists, genocidal Zala fanatics, separatists, or any other crackpot militant group with a violent agenda. Such missions rarely garnered media attention, but they certainly weren't carried out in secret.

"The terrorists' video proved that they had in their custody one Dr. Elizabeth McCrowan. Dr. McCrowan is a renowned geneticist based in Copernicus City." Perhaps then the true nature of the mission started to dawn on some of the pilots, but Shema continued, "For the benefit of our two newly-assigned pilots, this battlegroup encountered an unidentified hostile force using OMNI equipment to attack Copernicus. Since Dr. McCrowan was reported missing the same day as the attack, Intelligence figures this ATLAS group is most likely the same force that attacked Copernicus, no doubt as a diversion to capture McCrowan."

Now the pilots who fought the Copernicus battle could most likely put the pieces together and understand why the mission had to be secret.

"The nations of the Earth Alliance have disavowed all connection to ATLAS and are conducting internal investigations regarding the terrorists' acquisition of OMNI materials. Both PLANT and the EA nations have chosen to black out all knowledge of the Copernicus Incident in the interest of preventing another war from breaking out. Our mission is tying up the remaining loose end by eliminating ATLAS.

"Are there any questions before I detail the specifics of the operation?"

What have I gotten myself into now? Jack worried as he found out he hadn't only been tapped for a priority mission, but it was a wet work job. The pilots he'd talked to before the brief started seemed friendly enough, but there was no way he could remember all 17 of the other pilots in the span of about an hour. Despite the Commander asking if anyone had questions, Jack held his tongue, even though he was fairly indignant at being roped into doing wet work, since though they hadn't told him what he'd be doing. Still, this was a golden opportunity to take out a group of Radicals that hated Coordinators for being born Coordinators; a sentiment he thought went out of style in the late 1900s of the old calender. The knowledge that they had kidnapped a geneticist frightened him. Jack remembered the stories from the Valentine War about the Alliance's 'Biological CPUs' and only hoped they wouldn't force the good doctor to create more of them. Jack's sense of anger rose as he considered this, and he was ready to get going and take his team into the fire. OK Boss, lemme know what to do he thought, shifting in his seat as his face showed hard resolve.

Ed had been a little slow getting into the conference room. He was stuck sitting with one of the teams from another ship. He found it a little awkward to be sitting beside complete strangers and found it hard to focus properly on what was happening. But when the time to ask a question he quickly obliged.

Not even putting his hand up or standing up from the back of the room came a wimper.

"Don't ask stupid questions, Edgle. Your families aren't aware you were jailed in the first place."

"I've got some questions myself."

The voice was a new one. It was the red-haired man in Team 4, assigned to replace the late John Dou.

"Wayne Telk," intoned Shema, "Don't waste my time on minor theatrics."

"Right. This declaration the terrorists broadcast. Are we gonna see it?"

"No."

Wayne stood and slammed his fist against the bulkhead. "You've got to be kidding me! I want to know what we're up against!"

"It was a decision from the idiots in Command. There's no use whining."

"Fine. Well, you said the decision to investigate the shoals was made based on visual evidence from the video. I figure if these terrorists have enough brains to pull of some complicated diversion to kidnap the doctor, then they're probably not stupid enough to give away their position unless it's on purpose."

"My argument to command exactly," Shema's right hand flicked away a stray lock of hair with its usual mechanical unconsciousness, "The fact is that the punitive nature of this assignment and the petty vindictive nature of those in command give us little flexibility in how this operation is to be conducted."

Hector walked in "I got lost to the road to life hehe" said Hector reading his porn. He then quickly sat in a corner with his book open he giggled very low as he flicked through pages. 'Hmmm I know these are the other teams, but their weird but the good captain isn't so bad hehe, ohhh Suzy did that hehehe' were his internal thoughts hiding in the back.

He would randomly listen when important information would be thrown out, and then go back to his world when they said useless information. "Who cares what we are fighting, cant we just go around blowing sh*t up like normal? I mean it sorta worked last time" said/asked Hector not really paying attention.

Marcus rolled his eyes when Hector spoke. The man was competent enough in battle, but he sometimes acted like he wasn't thinking before he spoke. But his opinion didn't really matter right now. He had to think about what was going on right now. The kidnapping of the geneticist explained why the attackers, apparently known as ATLAS, had withdrawn so quickly. They must've used the attack as a cover of some sort to make sure nobody interfered with their main objective. But when he spoke not just to Hector, but to the entire room.

"It does matter who we're fighting, Hector. These guys have shown that they aren't your average bunch of radical nutcases with a bone to pick with every coordinator in existance. The fact that they managed to secure as many mobile suits as that is cause for concern. They may even have more than we saw during the attack. While what we did last time sort of worked, remember that it landed the lot of us in hot water with the brass, and at least one of us died. We can't afford to perform like we did last time, otherwise more of us might die. And I don't think we're going to have access to reinforcements of any kind for this one. We'll need to fight both smart and hard for this one, I think."
