Mobile Suit Gundam: Broken Skies IC

Aki had fallen asleep in the command center and when Auric arrived one of the kids woke him up. He returned to the hanger, assisting with getting the cockpits into the Gundams. Once Auric's cockpit was in, he connected the mainframe to the AV system and the internal systems of the Gundam. He told Auric it was finish and ready to use.

He did the same with Zuki's Gundam though it took a little bit longer to get the mainframe to integrate with the cockpit's mainframe. He had to make some new coding to get it to flow smoothly. Now it was finishing the sun would be rising outside. Two of three of the Gundams were finished and ready for operation.

He sat in Zuki's cockpit and connected the AV system. He needed to make sure there wouldn't be able feedback or overflow of information and data to Zuki's system. He wasn't concern about Auric even though his Gundam wasn't as limited at Zuki's. He winced slightly at the intense connection but knew it wouldn't hurt Zuki. He closed his eyes and dove into the system and sure it was a stable connection he detached.

"Alright Zuki, it's all yours. The connection is a bit intense but nothing major, you'll probably feel a pinch down your spine," he told the younger boy.

He waited for Zuki to test the AV system to make sure he connected well and without an complications.

Suz'n woke Amelia and Ro up a little before dawn to give some bread, cheese, and coffee. Amelia forced the food down not feeling hungry as nerves took over.

"The city has gotten quieter. I think they have expanded their search outside the city limits," they were told.

During the night they had hidden in a smuggler hole when the store was searched for them. Suz'n did well playing surprised that Rollo, Amelia's bodyguard had gone rogue and had kidnapped the princess. He should be considered armed and dangerous and it was possible that the princess would pretend to be ok or running with him in order to protect herself and keep the apparently insane and violent Rollo calm.

Amelia had laughed at the story and Ro's reactions. Now it was time to get smuggled into the delivery truck. The truck had a false back with a length of two feet of space and the width of the truck. Amelia sat on the truck floor her back against the side wall, stretching her legs towards the middle of the truck, her backpack in her lap. It was the only way to be even a little comfortable. There were vents all along the top of enclosed truck in order to allow air into the compartment without arising suspicion. It would take them the whole day to arrive to the the security compound.

Not knowing much about Amelia's plans was beginning to take a toll on Rollo, making him more anxious. He was never seated comfortably but prepared to spring up at any moment. He wasn't entirely surprised that she had secret plans, however. Amelia was spontaneous when she wanted to be, and he knew that well. He was impressed that she had thought it out this far. He figured her father would definitely try to stop them at all costs, but he wasn't sure what his own father would do. Rollo's father could either be interrogated or would be heading the search.

He decided not to think about it in the meantime as he checked his watch for what seemed to be the hundredth time that day, or perhaps that hour. "We should be close," he guessed, taking a careful whiff of the air from the vents. The smell of the city was gone and now even the smell of the road. "You should eat, I think we'll need the energy soon."

Before the princess replied, he spoke again. "Amelia," he didn't often sound out her name so quietly. "Is there anything at all I should know before we get off this truck?"

As if on cue, it began to slow down. "Just my luck."

Mikazuki smiled as he and Auric made it back to the hanger with the cockpits. Soon enough they would have these gun dams up and running and Mikazuki would be piloting one of them! Once they arrived he helped some of the other boys set up the cockpits and make sure that all three gundams were ready to go. He looked over his gunam one last time as Aki set up the cockpit and the mainframe. Everything seemed like it was in working order. He had never worked on or piloted a gun dam before hopefully they weren't too different from the mobile workers, that they used.

He was excited and nervous all at the same time as he waited for Aki to be done with the cockpit. A lot of memories mostly bad played in his mind as everything had lead up this moment. Auric hadn't said exactly what he wanted to do with these suits, but Mikazuki already knew. Auric wanted to use these suits to take over the military compound for all the slave kids. He had heard Auric taking with some of the older boys before about a possible uprising. The problem was that they slave boys never had the kind of equipment they needed to take on the leaders of the military compound. With these mobile suits though, they would have a huge advantage.

Mikazuki smiled when he heard Aki say that it was all ready to go. He lightly scoffed when Aki mentioned that he might feel a little pain when he hooked up his AV system to the gundam. "You worry too much Aki, Ill be fine. Now let me get in there." Mikazuki excitedly climbed into the Mobile suit and carefully hooked up his AV system into the Mobile Suit. Mikazuki closed his eyes as he winced in pain. Aki was a little off, it was a little more than a pinch that he felt. He lightly chuckled as he tried to get over the pain "Don't worry Aki I'm fine nothing I can't handle." Mikazuki smiled when the pain stopped and then stared down at the control panel for this machine. He started to look it over and get feel for what it would be like to use it. He had s huge smile on his face. He couldn't wait to use this in a real battle!

It wasn't long before Auric felt it- his synapses connecting with the machine. It wasn't extremely different from being connected to a mobile worker, except Auric could control when he was using manual controls and when he was directly connected to the operating system. The simple complexity of the machine wondrous. It wouldn't be long before everything was good and online, withall things considered. Regardless, as soon as the Zephyrantes was mostly operational, the team leader had to make his way back to the main camp to avoid suspicion.

"Zuki, you should be heading back as well. I am going to send most of the kids with you. Pretty much everything is done and too many of us missing is going to be noticed. I will stay here with just a handful of kids. Not much left to do anyways."

Aki sent all but five kids back with Zuki. He didn't need them all here under foot and in the way. He needed to get started on his own Gundam which was the most complex out of all of them and he was feeling a mix of dread and anticipation. He sent the other kids to whatever they like for now.

He focused on Strike Freedom's system, pouring over the coding and looking up at the machine. He connected the the cockpit to the mainframe then sat down in the seat taking a few deep breaths. This was going to hurt. He connected to the AV and his back arched as he screamed before reining in the pain and sound as he connected to the Gundam which threaten to rip him apart. He groaned as he reined it in even more, feeling for the system complexity, trying to figure out the puzzle then it clicked in his brain and he saw the system with clarity. He looked down at the tablet in his lap covered in blood. He wiped it with his sleeves and started organizing the Gundam's systems and fixing holes, reconnecting systems, adding new protocols and the like until it was to his satisfaction. He looked at the limited last and fiddled with it before he was happy with the results. He relaxed in the chair rubbed his cheek and the blood he found there. He disconnected and felt empty without the Gundam in his mind. He stumbled out of the cockpit onto the catwalk. His body felt weak after that intense connection. He sat down and wiped the remaining blood from his eyes and nose from his face with his jacket sleeve. His head pounded but he was on a high as his brain still processed the information of his Gundam.

Aki laid back on the catwalk looking up at his Gundam, smiled, then fell asleep.

Mikazuki nodded as he agreed with what Aki said. As much as he wanted to stay in this place and learn more about his gundam, he knew that he should head back to the military compound before people figured out what was going on. Mikazuki left in his mobile worker with a bunch of the other kids and headed back to the military compound. When they arrived it was late in the night and or very early in the morning however a person would want to read into it. Mikazuki parked his mobile worker in the hangar and started to work on it. He had to go over everything and make sure that it was okay. Once he finished that, he looked at the clock and sat that it was 4 in the morning. He sighed as he headed towards the room his bed was in. The next few days would be very very interesting and he couldn't wait to hear what the professors plan was with their new mobile suits.

The truck after making several delivery stops in order to not rise suspicious and even after a check at a stop point Amelia's guards had set up they had finally made it to the fourth division and the Sirius Security. It was just after 5 am when they truck arrived to deliver the supplies. The driver asked to speak with the company owner about the delivery that were was some mistake in the order.

Amelia listened carefully to what was being said outside. She knew the next step was to make sure the owner was still good on their deal. It didn't seem like their were any of her guards there to stop her. It seemed like they thought that they could stop her for getting there entirely. She hoped her cargo payment had arrived safely and that the owner was willing to move the schedule up to leaving today that very moment.

She never felt so nervous or tense in her life before. Ro took her hand in order to reassure her. She smiled at him, glad she wasn't doing this alone. She knew she could always count on him. They stayed quiet and hidden just in case there were guards around but they didn't know it. Amelia really wanted out of the truck.
