[[In light of recent developments, this is clearly the perfect time for one of those training montages.

Granted, Schwarz thinks that something else may come along, drawn to the Getter Dragon and attempt to control it as well. Well, that's a worst-case situation, but, still a situation that needs to be avoided.

As it stands now, he's the only, appropriate, one that could stand up to battle this other monstrosity he's worried about. And that worry, has lead to this dramatic training montage!

(1)
First, Schwarz himself is training his body and speed in the gym, striking into one of the large sandbags a multitude of times, and despite the sounds of impact echoing out the bag doesn't move until...

(2)
And now Schwarz and his Gundam are out about on the decks and tops of the ship, moving in a black and white blur along the perimeter. On occasion, it'll seem like there's more than one Gundam, copies attacking themselves in a mind-blowing display of ninja skill!

(1)
[[This is Schwarz making his way to his Gundam, not doing anything to be sneaky about it. He'll gladly tell anyone what he's doing if they cut him off, at least until he leaves in the Gundam itself. Proper clearance for departure and all that.]]

(2)
[[If you tune into the right frequency, or, heck, even with Dan's help, some of the monitors not in use start playing a broadcast. It's not the Finals of course, but, something seems to be recording a match between the Gundam Spegiel, and Skull Gundam.

For a while, the match seems... fair. An equal trade of blows until what Skull thinks is the finishing blow turns out to only have hit a cluster of trees. Speigel erupts from underneath the Gundam and lifts it into the air. But rather than dropped, it's thrown higher into the air, and caught in a metal net from Speigel's hands.

With a yank, Skull is pulled back down to the ground, and as it passes along the black Gundam, one of it's forearm blades flips over, making the Skull's head graze over it's blade. Skull crashes to the ground and doesn't get back up as Speigel stands beside it. Schwarz has a few choice words for it but, doesn't act further until he and the Gundam disappear in a cloud of smoke.

Close inspection shows that only the V-fin crest on Skull Gundam's head was removed, and thus, it remains completely active in the Gundam Fight!

(3)
[[And here is Schwarz's triumphant return sometime during Monday evening!]]

[[After the battle with Kissril, Lily, et al, Gundam Speigel still remains kneeling on the deck of the White Chalice.

Schwarz hasn't been seen since he 'exploded' during the fight.]]

MEANWHILE, back at the Justice League IS Academy...

Long before the mission began...

There's a rather... ominous looking female teacher running martial arts drills with a group of girls in training IS's. Gee... doesn't that mask look familiar?]]
