Five hours after the incidend



--- Omicron Minor > Planet Toledo > Order High Command HQ ---

She was within the very same white room , with the four high ranking fleet admirals , yet again.Being so young and still being treated like an Order admiral was something the people here weren't use to.That is why her every move was being closely monitored by her supiriors.In other words....she was put on a short leash.

-Brief us on the mission status Mirage.

A womans voice was heard this time.It was admiral Tatiana , she rarely spoke first. *-Is this a sign of good , or bad news....* she tough.

- I loaded two allien based viruses into West Point Academy's main grid.They distracted the data bank's defences and gave me an open window of thirty-five seconds.Wich proved to be more then I needed to finish the job. All files with key words : Order , Nomad and Osiris , were erased but not before making a copy of then in my ship's onboard computer.

- Then the mission was a compleat succes , or there is something you are not telling us? - another voice asked her.

- I was intercepted by a LSF agend during the transfer.One lucky shot from his bomber would have been more then enough to disrupt the transfering. But luckily , I managed to take him out and thus the files were safe.

- That is good news...but you are not telling us the whole truth.Am I right?

She felt something , it felt realy close to shame but it was a mixed feeling alongside fear.Those feelings would have to be put somewhere else , there was no time for them now.One wrong move and she could easily loose the possition she wannet all her life.

- Yes , there is something else.During the transfer a third party , a neutral one , picked up my signal and was able to copy the files I took. That was a mistake and it wasn't up to...

-Silence! So the still exists elsewhere exept your ship ? How could you let that happen ?

- The singal was picked up with extreme luck , I used standart equipment to hide my download of the files , yet they were intercepted to that *third party*.

- I'm starting to think you are unfit for this job ! Proove me wrong. This was your mission , your responcibility and now...it is your mess.A mess that you will have to sort out on your own and within....24 hours. Get that infromation , learn if it was accessed and do what you need to remove any trace of it's existance , I don't need to tell you that we don't want those infected libertonias to get them back.Those files contain secrets that are not meant for curios eyes.

- Before the download I encrypted class *A* defence systems to the information , it should be impossible to crack the code without the password I put.The only ones who can do it are the LSF and if my plan works , they wont even know they had a chance to get the files back.

- Carefull not to fail , Mirage . We expect results from you , good results.But this kind of screw up's will not be tolerated and we might as well have your head next time! Are we clear ?

- Yes , sir . We will have them back.




Onboard the "Au'Rora".
Location.....uknown ...
Three hours later....


- This is not a good idea. How can you agree with such terms ? Alone ? In that place ? We might not be at war with those people , but they don't realy like us.And I'm sure most of them wouldn't think twice before handing your head to the nomad infested government for a quick buck... - The young man was tounting at her room. He was well fit and trained. His uniform showed that he was a member of the Au'Rora's security team , Dean Peterson.

-Quit it already....I though you knew me better...

- I know you very well... But going in alone is not a smart thing to do.Maby we can use "Shadow" and stay close to that wurm hole...I mean base.

- And you need to stop underestimating our influence on the general public and start acting like a member of The Order. You are pathetic. If I do nothing , I'll be killed on Toledo , so thats the best thing I can do. Also , Rochester Base is surrounded by a junk field and it is close to Manhatten. Cloaking the Au'Rora there is impossible , we will be detected as soon as begin bumping into flying junk.

- Then why don't we fire a "Scurge" type torpedo at that place.It will destroy the people who may have saw it and the existing files.

- Thats stupid...we have no way of knowing if they haven't made copies of it.So thats out of the question.These are my final orders for the arguement.The Au'Rora will stay cloaked close to the Alaska Jump Gate.I will launch from her with my ship and go to Rochester.I will see what I can do to get the files and learn how much they might know of them.Then I head back to your location.You load the new access codes to the Alaska Jump Gate so that we may not be folowed and thats that.Oh .... and don't bother me again.thats an order.I have to put something more...suiting for my visit to that base.

- Yes...m'am. Godspeed...

*Entering codes....*

*Codes de-crypting....*

*Entering personal voice recodnition password and eye print*

- Bre'Delakorsa Mirage - a tiny red beam skanned her eye.

*Access aproved.Opening vault*

Two heavy doors started moving in opossite directions.There was a glass crate inside.It was filled with white liquid.

*Begining removal of nyutoleen*

*Nyutoleen removed*

The crate was no longer filled with the white liquid.Inside was something she spend almost two years building and engeneering.

- It's been a while since I needed you....




The armor was a perfect mach with her body.Aldo it seemed heavy and hard to move with on first sight.It was actually very light.

*Performing Exo-Suit type .... "A.N.G.E.L."....system maintenance *

*Host recodnized .... *

*All system running normal.Power supply reading green.*

- Ah..well...it's good to know that atleast some things still work as they should.


New York system , Rochester base

*Da'dunk* - that was the the weak sound of her ship docking on Rochester base.The base itself was small and the bar was close by.She was wearing a black robe , covering her entire body and a hood , wich hided her face.

*Pssuuuk* - the slide door to the bar opened and she entered the room.

No one in sight exept on one table , where there were several men.Each of them seemed to be in good condition , armed. She saw every thing she needed to know about them.Being armed and in numbers , ment that they were indeed scared of The Order.When she made a small step inside the bar , she worried that they might hear the metalic sound of her boots.But those concerns quickly dispersed when she looked down to the floor and saw a thick layer of dust on it.Thick enough to hide the sound of her footsteps.

The men saw her , each of them automathicly reached for his weapon and just put his hand over it.They were so predictable.... The bar seemed to be empty , there was no one here exept her and the several men.

Moment of silence. A clearing of one the men's thoat broke it and then one of them , probly the leader , said.

- Ah !! There you are ... we have been expecting you.

- Enough with the small talk , where is the infromation and have you been able to access it ?


edit - // There was one LSF agent. All the data I needed has been breached and deleted.It was upto him to try and stop me , wich he did and thus died trying.I never said that EVERY piece of information was downloaded , it is just something that I need.
