Cagalli opened her eyes and looked down; nestled between her breasts was Kou. She was about to raise a fist to knock some teeth out of his mouth, but then she notices he was still asleep and that his nuzzling against her was pure sleeper’s instinct. Rolling her eyes she smiles faintly as she pats his head lightly. She then carefully gets out of the bed and makes her way to the bathroom for a nice long shower.

“Are you positive this data is reliable Lowe?”
Standing in front of Kisaka’s desk, Lowe set down Eight who began to replay the message he had received. “Well Kisaka if Jane Houston hadn’t been the one to send this message I would have thought it a trap. However I had Eight do a little hacking to check the data and well…the transfer dates of when the Earth Forces are giving Blue Cosmos these three mobile suits. Harrelson’s already gotten his Sword Calamity stowed in hiding, but those three suits could be trouble if Blue Cosmos get their mitts on em’.”
Kisaka nodded as he recalled the original Raider, Forbidden, and Calamity. By this time he knew those machines were made by a joint Earth Alliance/Blue Cosmos venture and were under Muruta Azrael’s command. “So basically you’ve been asked to assist in a mobile suit hijacking operation?”
”Yeah, however I need someone else with mobile suit skills to help out. There are three ships to swipe and Harrelson’s going to be waiting in his mobile suit to back us up. So we need a third member to help Jane and myself because of the high possibilities of needing to activate them incase we’re discovered.”
Kisaka stroked his chin. “I’ll need some time to think about this. I’ll inform you of my answer later this afternoon.”
”That’s all I ask.”

Groaning in annoyance as the morning suns ray’s decided to poke at his eyes. Kou grumblingly opened his eyes as he sat up in bed; he lightly scratches his side as he throws his leg over the side of the bed. Getting up off the bed the Coordinator stretches lightly as he tries to shake the haze of sleepiness from his system. Feeling the morning need to take care of his bladder, he makes his way to the bathroom.
As he opened the door he stops and stiffens. Just getting out of the shower was Cagalli, who was wet, and naked to his eyes. The two stared at each other in shock for nearly five seconds before regaining their wits.
“Do you mind?! I’m not a free peep show pervert!”
“Oh shit! S-sorry!” Kou quickly shut the door to the bathroom. His heart-beat was racing something fierce. “Oh man, oh man how the fucking hell do I get myself into these situations?” He sighs before looking down at himself. “I just hope that goes away when she comes out…”

Tammy stood outside the Carpentaria command center as she watched the transport planes unload the mobile suits for the next raid. While outwardly she was calm and cool as any professional soldier; however she was nervous. The Top Five had stressed highly that failure was not an option, and she did not want to get on their bad list. People who got on the Top Five’s shit-list weren’t killed but they were demoted and punished severely to the extent they would have preferred death.
The base was buzzing with activity. Crews were working to unload the mobile suits, their weapons, and performing maintenance. Crews also were working feverishly to get the three subs supplied and equipped for the raid. Tammy would have preferred maybe two more days from the planned attack date to properly plan out this attack, but she knew better than to ask for an extension of operation time. As it was she was in warning period where she had been marked to see if she made the cut or failed.
She shuddered the thought of failure…this time they will turn the Kusanagi to molten slag and its mobile suits.
