3/4ths Beat, Finale

[marinefashion]

[There's a familiar, if badly battered mecha flying into docking. When the pilot gets out, she sighs and brushes a hand through her blue locks which had been chopped hideously short.] Man, it hasn't changed a bit.

[In her hands she had a data pad, holding it up.] I wonder if anyone missed me.

[Later on, she'll be found in an unoccupied room, and setting up a presentation. When she's ready, she'll turn to the others.]

I know where DUNE went.

...just like me...

[And she pulls Eri close before...] Wait... does this mean...?

Yeah, we can finally take the battle to DUNE. Finish him off for good before he does whatever he's planning. It took me almost a week to get here, so we should still have a buffer. I hope.

...this is it. Where is he?

The great Tree of Souls. The place where the Rainbow Jewel landed originally. We'll have to take the Chalice in close to get there. I'll go talk to Ayame to bring it closer in.

Right...

...back to the beginning. Where everything started. Sounds funny, doesn't it?

Re: Before the meeting

[marinefashion]

Yep. Back to the beginning. And if we do this right, we'll finish this long battle.

Re: Before the meeting

[latelybloomed]

Yes...

...and I missed you so much...

Re: Before the meeting

[marinefashion]

Hey, don't get mopey on me, okay? We've got a chance to finally finish everything. And then, you can dote on Sora and I all you want when we go home.

Re: Before the meeting

[latelybloomed]

Heh, alright, then...

...so, how's everything back at the Park? Is everything running fine?

Re: Before the meeting

[marinefashion]

God its chaos. I don't know how your grandma kept up with all the paperwork and people ignoring my deflecting. That last deployment I heard against the Invaders took a lot out of the resources.

Re: Before the meeting

[latelybloomed]

Well, with the Earth in so much trouble, you can't say that it wasn't needed.

...and I really need to thank Sakura. I heard the pilot of the Desu Nozomi was a real sweetheart when she wasn't a little ditsy, but...

Re: Before the meeting

Yeah that's true. I'm glad we marshaled forces in time. I was across the continent when the call came in.

You met her huh? She's great. Kagami, her sister is even funnier at times.
