Kilometres away from Manhattan, 50K above Pittsburgh, stood the 24th naval battlegroup, once under the command of admiral Alban. There, the immense Eagle Prime battleship, the heavily modified Liberty dreadnaught, rested along with its escort, it's immense 75m diameter antena dish rotating cmoothly searching for intruder.

the LNS Eagle Prime was about the largest dreadnaught ever seen. Originally a Constellation class like the Citadelle de Quebec, it's engine was first upgraded to fit in it's self propelled hyperdrive. Followed by that, a number of gatling ion turrets, efficient at fighter craft interception. After a few years of hardwork, the cloaking device dome was succesfully installed on the vessel, with a few technical difficulties, but generally working good. The ship was indeed a testbed for every liberty technologies, and made very rare appearance, and very few knew of its existence. Even as of now, two experimental rail guns were being installed on the hull, as well as a Gauss canon system that would sacrifice a bit of the hangar space.
However, today was the immense radar unit installed on board that would serve to something.

When the newly appointed admiral of the EP noticed what was on radar, he immediately called Liberty defence fleet One.

"Sir. It's incredible... but we are decting a slowly fading away electronical signature, very disctinctive of an order war ships. I can see it begin in Alaska, heading for I dont know where. It has at least one minute delay upon the real position of the ship."

"Captain Lavoie, you are requested on the bridge immediately!!" the intercom announced.
The officers on the communication room cursed as they rushed back toward the bridge.

Isabelle was still as unemotional ever since her reaction to menace. She seemed a completely different person, having lost all humane features.

"I have already proposed my offers. You may believe unfounded lies from the Order. Or you may trust the security the Liberty navy is offering within it's own homeworld. Since admiral Mira doesn't want to make the effort to cooperate with me, I'm afraid I have no other choice."

She also felt the other woman's body getting ready for combat, and she did just as same, tapping in a subtle way a part of her arm plate, effectively activating the armour which made no notice whatsoever it was now indeed active.
