Armory One 20:45 hours The Requiem had finished its escort mission, ensuring the safe travel of the transport ship and had been quick to return to the homelands. The trip had been peaceful, going smoothly without another incident and allowed them an uninterrupted voyage as they made their way to Armory One. It was there that they would resupply and make a few changes to their pilot roster, according to Commander Asuka himself. Natsuri sat at her desk, looking over the file in her hand that she had been given by Eren moments earlier. A new pilot, a new machine, both to be added to the Requiem. As her eyes moved over the ink that was on the papers, she glanced at the photo of the pilot before she leaned back in her seat, flipping through the pages once more before setting it on the corner of her desk. "I wonder how many more pilots will join us.." She spoke to herself, taking hold of the coffee in front of her and sipping it slowly before she stood from her desk, moving to sit on the edge of her bed. A little down time was needed as she picked up a book, leaning back and opening it to where she had left off before the battle had begun. A soft sigh escaped the woman as she lost herself in the words etched on the pages. ------------------------------------------------------- Sebastian stretched as he walked down the hall, the top of his uniform open in a lazy fashion. He let a yawn escape him, having woken up a short time ago thanks to Aston wanting his attention. He held one eye open, looking down at the blonde male before he shut both eyes. "I wish you'd have let me sleep just a little longer, y'know. It's not very often I get to curl up with you and actually sleep without any interruptions." He groaned, stuffing his hands into the pockets of his pants, keeping pace with his other half. ------------------------------------------------------- Harumi had taken up the opportunity to bond with her teammates, mostly Alaric as she pointed things out to him on his phone while the two of them were playing 'Sky Meisters'. She had taken time to explain the game, showing him tips and tricks with it and watching as he breezed through it like she had. She chuckled softly, watching the way his face twisted as he used his current roster to play through the story mode before she held up her phone to him. "Look, they've got the Stargazer available in an event for the next couple days!" She smiled softly at him. |

Eren sighed, sitting at the desk in his room, he looked over at his phone hoping to see a message from Alice. "She must be busy with something or fell asleep before I got back. I'm sure she's tired from her trip to Earth. I hope we get to see each other soon..." Eren looked over the files in front of him. The new pilot they were getting sure had an interesting origin. He stood up, knowing the new pilot would be arriving soon as well as the 2 new models boarding the ship. He sent out a message to Aston Norra to meet him in the hanger in 30 minutes. First he wished to greet his new teammate. Eren left the ship and waiting near the bridge connecting the Requiem to the armory hanger and waited. Alaric smiled at Harumi, he really enjoyed her company. It's nice to have a female around that isn't his sister. "Really the Stargazer?? That mobile suit is really top notch. I think it's what inspired the Star series gundams." |

Cyrus was with the tech crews as the final repairs to Kampfer were being done and a new Weapons Binder was being installed. He was looking over data from the previous fight, namely the two 'Demons' he had encountered. "The bits on that one I fought were offence and defence, next time if I fight open on the rapid fires, plus it seems to favour a duel as well. That second one was fast, The Commander will know more" he said out loud to himself, "maybe I should see about beam sabres, the Tonfas and knives will only get me so far" Edited by Arik Yamato, Sunday Jul 2 2017, 10:15 AM.

Aston held and leaned onto Sebastian's arm, mumbling to himself inaudibly before looking up at his boy, "I know, I'm sorry, I just got ordered by the Commander to meet him in the hangar.... And....er.... I don't know, I haven't really had much sleep since our last mission...." He shook his head "I can't stop thinking about that white machine I fought, not to mention I got a mouthful from the tech crew....I destroyed an armor pack.... And there aren't enough spare parts to repair the Testament, because apparently it's an 'old machine'... I'll either have to use the Divine Striker or go long range next mission, and even then I don't think I'll be able to keep up....." He sighed once more but looked up at Sebastian, "We can sleep in when this is finished, I promise~" He held onto Sebastian's arm a little tighter, guiding the two of them toward's the hangar _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Neo had stepped out of his personal quarters of the Cargo ship he was traveling on, changing from his civilian clothes into his Specialized Elite blue uniform, running his fingers through his hair and shaking it up a bit before nodding at the pilot and bidding him farewell. It had been a fast few couple of days. He hadn't been contact by ZAFT since he gave some information to them about a month ago, he didn't think anything of it until he received a mission log, and a uniform. He stepped out of the ship and onto Armory One, looking up and admiring the Requiem, he had never been on a ship that big, or with such a crew, he was somewhat eager to enter, but as soon as the feeling came, it left, his light smile faded into stoic stare as he walked into the ship headed for the Hangar to meet with his Commander, approaching the young man in a white Zaft uniform, giving a stern salute "Identification Number 00322714, Neo R. Voltaire, Specialized Elite here to serve, sir. It's a pleasure to meet you." |

Sebastian looked down at him before he sighed, yawning once again. "Uh huh, you say that but let's be realistic," He made a face. "We're lucky if we even get a chance to rest like that." He moved a hand to his head, scratching the back of it lightly before he stopped walking. "Hey, hey." He lightly cupped the side of Aston's face, placing a gentle kiss to his forehead and pulled him against him. "Don't worry about that white machine. That battle is over, and the chances of us running into them again probably aren't that high. Not unless we have to go deal with escorting another transport ship, and I'm kinda hoping the Commander won't put us through that again." He chuckled lightly. "Just take it easy, okay? If the mechanics and tech crew wanna bitch, just let 'em. It's the pilots who give those guys jobs to do, otherwise they'd have shit for a paycheck." He stepped back to tilt his chin upwards and kiss him lightly. "Go meet with Eren. We can grab a bite to eat once you're done with him and then just hang out for a bit. I'm sure that sounds a little better than sleeping, right?" <<------------------------------------------------------->> "I'm not really sure. I.. didn't really look into it or anything. I just spent a bunch of diamonds to get some points in the event. I'm ranked third right now." She smiled softly at him, showing him the screen. "Maybe, just maybe I can win this mobile suit. I don't have it yet, but I'd really like to get it. What about you, Alaric?" She looked at him, gaze meeting his as she leaned forward in her seat a little. |

Eren watched Neo approach and address him. Returning the salute he spoke up, "So that's the name you'll be using, fine by me." Smiling he continued, "I'd like to welcome you to my team. I look forward to working with you, but first let's go take a look at the mobile suit being assigned to you. " He began walking with him back on to the Requiem. "On this ship we have a total of 7 pilots, including you. Many of the mobile suits on board are stand alones in terms of having a set, but yours wont be. In fact, my team is the only one allowed to have this set of specialized gundam. They're called the 'Star' Series and a total of 4 are on the ship. Originally we only had 2,but now that you're here and the fact that another member needs an upgrade, we have 4 total." Eren watched as Aston made his way into the hanger. "Ah Aston, come here please. I've got a surprise for you." "Well I like the Stargazer, but I can live without it. I'd much rather build up my items then go for different mobile suits. It's a shame we can't have our own personal gundams in the game. Although it wouldn't be fair to have everyone having their own specialized model." |

As Cyrus was going over his notes he heard the sound of Eren entering the hangar. He looked in the direction he could hear the voice and saw him with a newcomer he'd never seen before. "Must be a new team member" he thought, "this place is never without something new going on" He then called down to Eren. "Commander Asuka, its no big rush but when you get a moment I just need to quickly talk to you sir, I'll be in the Kampfer's cockpit" he said as he then floated over to his mobile suit and began doing checks. |

Aston approached his commander and what appeared to be a new addition to the team, yawning once again and saluting at both of them "Good morning, fearless leader." He said as he dropped his salute, extending his hand to the new recruit, "Lieutenant Aston Norra, one of the pilots under Eren's command. Neo took his hand and shook it, "Neo R. Voltaire, looks like we'll be working together." He gave a light smile. "Neo R.... Like Roanoke?" Aston let go of his hand with a raised brow "My mother told me about an Earth Alliance captain with that name....I think he was a mobile suit pilot too." Neo's eye twitched and he turned his attention back to Eren. "I assume you're putting me and the history buff in the cockpits of the other two?" |

Sebastian had watched as Aston left before he took his own leave, moving down one of the corridors before he was stopped by one of the CICs. "Oh, hey. Everything okay? You look like you're in some kind of panic." He tilted his head slightly, raising a brow at the younger woman. He gently placed his hands on her shoulders, rooting her to the spot. "Hey, hey. Focus, girl. What's the rush?" "I-I'm looking for Commander Asuka. The Deputy Captain said it was of utmost urgency that she speak to him and under no circumstances were I allowed to take no for an answer from anyone." She breathed out, trying to catch her breath after having run through a bunch of different corridors trying to find the young Commander. Her gaze moved up to Sebastian, placing a hand on his arm. "D-Do you know where the Commander is?" He dropped his hands and gave a firm nod. "I'll pass the message along to the Commander, so take a moment to catch a breather before you return to the bridge, alright?" He smiled softly at her before he gave her a half-assed salute, moving back down the corridor as fast as he legs could carry him. As he slid around the corner, he ran into the hangar and stopped when his hands hit the railing from the second floor of the hangar. He could see Eren talking with Aston and someone else, and not wanting to yell down to him he let his hands firmly grip the railing. In one swift motion, he pulled himself back before launching himself forward and over the railing, landing on the floor below before he rushed over to the trio. "My apologies for the interruptions, Commander." He saluted Eren before he dropped his arm. "The Deputy Captain is looking for you. She says it's of utmost urgency that she speak with you, and under no circumstances is anyone allowed to take no for an answer. I don't know any of the details, sorry." |

Eren smiled at Neo, " You're right, these new models will be going to you and this young man, Aston here. Aston, just liked Sebastian and Alaric, you will now pilot a Star series mobile suit. You and our new teammate Neo that is. Aston, I present you the ZGMF-X57T Star Burning Gundam. I know you had a bit of a struggle in your last battle with the Testament so I'd like you to pilot this new model. Neo, you will be piloting it's brother suit, the ZGMF-X47T Star Cross Gundam. I want you to fight hard out there on the battlefield. Fight for your ideals as well as the people you wish to protect. As your commander I will support you with all my power." Smiling he saluted each of them. Eren looked over at the young man who had just approached them. He noticed the urgency in Sebastian's words as he spoke. "It must really be important if she won't take no for answer." He looked over at his teammates. "Aston, please tell Cyrus i'm sorry that I couldn't make it to speak to him. As this is urgent I'll speak to him later. Oh and please introduce Sebastian to our new teammate." Shortly after, Eren went running towards Natsuri's room. When he reached the door he knocked then entered. "What is it that is so urgent Natsuri?" |

Aston and Neo both saluted at Eren as he left before looking at their new machines. "Impressive mobile suits..." Neo said "A lot of power to give to one person." "It's alright...As long as you're using that power for the right purpose." Aston replied looking up at his Star Burning Gundam. "...As long as you use it to change the world..." He began to mumble in audibly for a second, Neo cocked a brow, before Aston caught on that he noticed, his face turned red "Uhhh..... Let me show you the other members of our team," He directed Neo over to their blue haired comrade with a wave and lazy salute "Hey Cyrus, This is Neo, he's gonna be a new addition to the team." Neo nodded "It's nice to meet you. Pleasure to serve...All that stuff." He looked back at his machine, then back to the two young men. |

Sebastian nodded, saluting the Commander as the young man took his leave almost as quickly as he'd done just to get back to the hangar. Letting out a slow breath, he brushed off his uniform before adjusting it and let his gaze move over to Aston. He watched the way that he looked up at the machines, and.. wait. He let his own gaze move up over the machines and his face almost lit up. "Whoa." He breathed out, letting out a whistle as he took in the new machines before his gaze moved to the newest addition to their team. He stepped towards Aston, lightly nudging him before smiling softly and offering Neo a quick salute before easing up. "Sebastian Yaeger, pleasure to meet you." He held out his hand to the Neo with a smile. <<------------------------------------------->> Natsuri was seated at her desk when the young Commander entered the room. Her face was stern before a look of concern crossed it momentarily. "You'll want to take a seat, Commander." She motioned to the chair in front of her before she pushed a tablet towards him, leaning back in her seat. "We received some.. rather concerning news from the Supreme Council, and the Chairwoman herself. I apologize for being the one to inform you but, given the relationship that you have with the young woman, I wasn't exactly eager to withhold the information." She folded her hands into her lap as she looked towards him. "Alice Yamato has gone missing." |

Eren felt his heart sink as soon as the words left Natsuri's mouth. He couldn't believe what she had just said. Wanting those words to be incorrect Eren read over the report. The more he read, the more upset he got. "So then she went missing near where I was...how could anyone let this happen?! She's far too important to just allow to go missing." Sighing he tried to keep his composer. "I guess that means our team has a new mission and it's one we cannot fail." He refused to fail this mission, Alice needed to be found no matter what. |

Cyrus looked up from his data and turned to see the newcomer, he smiled at once and extended his hand. "Always a pleasure to have more pilots on the team. I'm Cyrus Westman" he said, "and this thing of beauty is my mobile suit the Kampfer. Welcome to the team Neo, if your gonna be flying with us I'm sure we'll become fast friends" He looked over at the suit Neo had looked at. "That yours?" |

Aston nudged Sebastian back and gave a soft smile, pointing at one of the new machines "I get that one~" He said. "It's part of the Star series, like yours." A feeling a relief came over him when he said it, knowing that he wouldn't have a handicap in the next mission. Neo greeted both men and shook hands with them "It's a pleasure to be here, really." He said before looking at Cyrus. There was something in his eyes that made him feel less tense, Maybe it was the innocence in his eyes, Maybe it was how friendly he was. It had been awhile since he met someone like that, "Uhhh yea, that's my machine." He said nodding and looked at the Kampfer, "Another impressive machine, It suits you." He chuckled "No pun intended." "Nice to see we're all getting along, are you okay if I left you and Cyrus here?"Aston said to Neo. "Don't see why not," He looked over at Cyrus, wrapping an arm around Cyrus's shoulder "I'll just have this guy show me around." looking over at Sebastian "How about that food?" He said holding onto his arm and tugging it "c'mon! c'mon!" And before his other half could answer he started pulling him in the direction of the Mess Hall. |

"Damn, so you're a star like the rest of us, huh? Guess you'll be shining the brightest then." He teased, ruffling Aston's hair before he looked at Neo again. "Welcome to the team, I'm sure we'll all be good friends. The Asuka team is one of the best teams in all of ZAFT, in my personal opinion anyways." He chuckled when Neo slung his arm around Cyrus' shoulders before he was being pulled off to the lounge to get food. "Oi, catch ya later then!" He called back to them before they disappeared around the corner. He walked alongside Aston, smiling softly. "So, that's what the Commander wanted you for, huh? That new machine, and the new guy?" <<------------------------------------------->> Natsuri gave a short but firm nod. "I couldn't agree more, Commander. According to the report, the ZAFT ship she was traveling on launched her life pod out into space. What happened to the ship is currently unknown, but no contact has been made with them for several hours. The military has presumed the ship is no longer intact, so to speak, and whether it's a mechanical error or an undetermined attack is unknown, as you saw." She stood up, moving towards the holo-map in her office. "Unfortunately, the last known location of Miss Yamato's pod was in this general area." She motioned to a location on the map before she looked up at him. "An unclaimed area of space, anything is possible. It's not uncommon, either. The signal cut off not long ago, as well, so it's possible that she could have been picked up by a ship passing by in the general vicinity. I only hope that's the case and she's not floating out aimlessly in the middle of nowhere." She folded her arms over her chest. "What are your thoughts regarding the information, Commander? There are several transport ships that pass by in the area, but what has me slightly concerned is that our little enemy ship headed in that general direction as well." |

"That's my biggest concern. Even if Alice had the Titian with her, she wouldn't be able to handle that many elite pilots attacking her at once. It's even worse because she's alone in a pod, who knows where. I'm not risking her safety by sitting around humming and hawing. Team Asuka will be heading out immediately and I will be addressing the crew in the lunch room right away." Getting up he walked over to the monitor on the wall, typing in a code he activated the ships comms system so the crew could hear him. "I need all pilots to meet in the lunch room. I don't care what you're doing at this moment. I expect you all there within the next five minutes." Right after he finished speaking he looked over at Natsuri. "As for the people on the bridge, I'll leave them for you to handle." Eren left the room and made his way to the lunch room. He waited patiently for everyone to show up. Alaric was surprised when Eren's voice came on to the comms system. He seemed rather serious on whatever matter he needed them for. He looked over at Harumi, " We'd better get going. It's not often Eren sounds that serious." He stood up and made his way to the lunch room. |

Cyrus laughed at Neo's pun and smiled as put his arm went round his shoulder. "Neo, I think you and I are gonna get along fine" he said, "welcome to the team, come on, I'll show you around then I'd like to learn more about your Mobile..." He was cut off at Eren's announcement, his smile turning to concern in a second. "Only heard him this serious once so far, somethings got to him" Cyrus said to himself before turning to Neo, "come on, looks like you maybe about to get a crash course in the action we get into" |

Aston strolled into the lunch room with Sebastian as the announcement came on, grabbing some food and sitting down at a table, "Eren's sounding a little more serious than usual." He said looking over at his boy. "Sounds like we'll be heading out." He turned to his tray and ate a little quicker. "I wonder what's got the commander like that tho." _________________________________________________________________________ Neo had heard the announcement and nodded at Cyrus' comments. "Well this is going to be....Interesting, c'mon," He tapped Cyrus on the shoulder and gave him a hand motion to guide him to where they ordered to meet. |

"Shit, whatever news Natsuri had for him must've been pretty serious if he's calling a meeting that soon with everyone." He was quick to frown as he made quick work of the salad he had ordered, a little disappointed he wasn't able to enjoy a peaceful meal with Aston before shit hit the fan. He was about to speak up again when he watched Eren enter the room, his gaze meeting that of his Commander's. "Sir." He spoke out before he stood up with the empty bowl, moving to place it off to the side with the rest of the dishes. "I trust whatever the Deputy Captain had to tell you wasn't what you wanted to hear." He spoke softly, stuffing his hands into his pockets as he stood with Eren. "Whatever it is, you have my condolences in regards to the situation." Harumi had followed Alaric and entered the lunch room to catch the last bit of Sebastian's comment to Eren. It left her mind to wonder about what had happened that would cause him to say words such as that. She looked from Sebastian to Eren before she saluted him, easing up shortly after as she stood close to Alaric. "Sir, is everything alright?" |

Eren watched as his team all entered the room and took their seat. He scanned the room and made eye contact with each one of them. "I'm going to get straight to business. I'm sure all of you are wondering why exactly I've called you all here with such haste. I've just been informed of some information that some of you may not like." Eren made eye contact with Alaric. Exhaling he continued, "Alice Yamato is missing... Our team is to go to her last known location and try to find her. Of course it won't be that easy. Her last known location is where the 'demons' we heading." His voice was serious and stern. "Alice Yamato is to be retrieved no matter what. I will not allow this mission to be a failure. If those demons have her, we will show them no mercy. The Requiem will be heading out immediately and I want all of you to try and get some rest. Also before I forget, we have a new member. His name is Neo, he will allow us to have the upper hand against the demons. Now if you'll excuse me..." Eren left the room and made his way back to his quarters. He took of his coat and laid down one the bed. "I'll save you Alice, I promise..." Alaric felt his body go cold once the words left Eren's mouth. Alice is missing, how did this happen. He stared at the floor in disbelief,"I should've been there for her." |

Cyrus showed Neo to the the lunch room where they were meeting and listened as Eren told them the news of Alice Yamato disappearing. Like everyone there concern was on his face, he watched as Eren left before turning to Neo. "Go introduce yourself to the others and then meet me back at the hangars. I'll give you the rest of the tour when I get back" he said as he headed out, stopping to put his hand on Alaric's Shoulder. "We'll get her back Alaric" he said with a smile, "the whole teams got you and the Commander's back" He headed out and made his way to the door to Eren's quarters as he knocked at it. "Sir its Cyrus, are you in there?" |

Aston looked over at Alaric and gave a sympathetic nod, "We have nothing to worry about, we're the Auska team! We get through anything." He raised his soda and took an enthusiastic gulp, for the sake of everyone. However, he felt his heart sink and his skin flush when the 'demons' were mentioned. He looked down at his half eaten sandwich. Flashes of that white machine he once fought popped into his head; the way his attacks were so easily brushed off, how he was kicked around, his head spun again they way it did when he pulled his risky and not very effective attack, and lastly, he heard his mother's voice once more. His appetite was completely gone. He sighed heavily before getting up, throwing the rest of his food away and putting up his tray. He tapped Sebastian on the shoulder "Get some rest, I'm going to my machine. I....Gotta learn it's ins and outs." He left the lunch room and back to the hangar, changing into his flight suit and entering the Star Burning, powering the machine up and turning on it's in-cockpit training mode. "This time, it'll be different, demon.." He mumbled as he begun. _______________________________________________________________________________________ Neo saluted at the team when Eren introduced him "It's a pleasure to meet you all. I'm looking forward to working with you." The news of Alice Yamato missing and the mention of demons gave him a strange feeling. "No matter how far I try to run they still follow me.." he mumbled before nodding at Cyrus and watching Aston up and leave the room. He tilted his head and looked over at Sebastian "He's an odd one, I'll tell you what." He said with a chuckle. "But I think his hearts in the right place." He gave him a wave before taking his leave to the hangar. |

Correction; it wasn't anything that any of them wanted to hear. He let his gaze move over the faces of his teammates but it lingered mostly on the young commander himself. He watched the way his face twisted as the words left his mouth, the words no man wanted to hear about the woman he loved. His gaze had moved to Aston, and the thought of him ever going missing made him sick to his stomach and he wondered if Eren felt the same way. "..." It was a sinking feeling, one that threatened to drag him down into the depths of the unknown and when he felt a tap on his shoulder, he snapped back to reality. "Ah, what. Oh, sure. Got it." He didn't even really let the words sink in, looking around to find that Eren had left as well and when Neo spoke to him, he shifted slightly before blowing strands from his face. "Aston's got a lot on his mind, and it's like a race trying to keep up with him, but you're right about his heart. It's always been in the right place, maybe that's why I fell for the weirdo." He chuckled slightly before his expression faded and he moved to place a hand on Alaric's shoulder. "Don't sweat it, Alaric. We'll find her, you can count on that. We're the Asuka Team, this is what we do best." He offered a friendly smile. "She'll be brought back safe and sound, even if I have to die in the process. She's family to us, too, and we'll be damned if we leave family behind, y'know?" He gave a firm pat to his shoulder before he took his leave, absentmindedly wandering to the observation deck. His gaze moved over the vastness that was space, and he let himself float around in the room in silence. "Time for the light to shine on through and overcome the darkness. Your time is almost up, demons." <<--------------------------------------------------------->> Harumi had gasped at the news of Alice, her hand moving to cover her mouth as she looked from Eren to Alaric. She couldn't imagine what was going through his mind, let alone the Commander's. When the Commander took his leave, she listened to the words of encouragement and support from their teammates before the two were left alone. She hesitated for a moment, unsure what to say before she shakily reached out to place a hand over his. "Alaric, we're.. going to find her. We're going to find Alice and bring her home, no matter what it costs us. She's important to all of us, and it's like Sebastian said. She's family, and family means that no one ever gets left behind. We stick together, we ensure nothing but the best for each other. I have faith in the Commander, just as I have faith in our team, and in yourself." She smiled at him, trying her best to console her friend, the first real friend she had made since she joined ZAFT. "And please, don't beat yourself up over this. There's nothing we could have done to prevent it." |

Eren continued to stare at the roof when he heard a knock at his door followed by Cyrus' voice. "I told you to go and rest Cyrus. It wasn't a suggestion, it was an order." His voice held a sign of annoyance in it. "I understand you're the type of guy that doesn't like seeing people be down, but right now I'd like some time to myself. So please do as I told you." Eren rolled onto his side and closed his eyes. He knew if he was to get Alice back he needed to rest. If the Demons had her, he needs to give it his all in battle. Alaric stared blankly as each of his teammates tried to comfort him. It was only after Harumi finished speaking did he speak, a sigh escaping his mouth, "I don't plan on beating myself up over it. Alice with be rescued, maybe not by me or any of the standard team members. I will try my best to get Alice back on my own, it's my duty as her brother, but I know that if I fail, Eren will succeed no matter the cost to himself. If all of us fail, Eren won't, he's different from the rest of us. He has a dark power inside him and if it's unleashed, even the demons will cower in fear. I've seen a glimpse of it once before, it's like when someone goes berserk, but then goes to the next level. We must be ready for the upcoming battle especially if those bastards have her." |
