The gray-haired scientist looked up at the displays. "I'm sure. I don't completely understand the systems, KOS-MOS herself added some things I'm not sure of, but this represents our best chance to negate their attack."
The other gray-haired scientist nodded. "Just asking. I've already set the temporal coordinates to just prior to the attack. We don't know what in that ancient era they were trying to accomplish other than the death of that one young person or how it would affect our present."
"Time travel is a can of Novellian bloodworms," said Shion, quoting one of the scientists on the project. "Preparing activation of KOS-MOS-02."

"No. We've only got one shot to open the gate and use the temporal trail. That's why we created this second unit. It has to count," said Shion. "Kosmos? Are you aware?"
"This unit is 25% functional at present, Shion." Kosmos' voice was inflectionless and mechanical. That would change as she gathered data.
"Good luck," said Shion as she put her hand over the switch.
"Luck is not logical," said Kosmos. "This unit will accept whatever assistance in completing mission objectives as is necessary. Caution. Length of mission is not specified."
