"Akihiko?" Ryoko asked, looking over the young man. "Well I'll be... it IS you! How the hell have you been? Why it's been-" She was cut off.<br/><br/>"Ma'am!" One of the trainees shouted, the Commando turning to face the<em>Cabbit</em>. "I've picked up something on sensors! Moving fast!"<br/><br/>"Can you give me an ID, Mamoru?" Ryoko asked, something appearing in the distance. Mami zoomed in on it, a DropShip flying in.<br/><br/>"It's a DropShip... Bearing Federated Commonwealth insignea!" She responded.<br/><br/>"About damn time!" Came Madoka over the radio. "I was thinking I would be bored!" Her Catapult powered up and started to turn towards the DropShip. "Ryoko, you get your and your little pets out of here. Let ME handle this."<br/><br/>"Dammit, Kaname, this is not what we agreed on! Alright, trainees, you're all ready for this. This is why you're here. Break and attack!" She turned to the Mercenaries. "That goes for you lot, as well." Mami sat up in her seat and got real serious.<br/><br/>"Good." She mused, back peddling to a safe range. She was more of a ranged 'Mech then melee. She'd let the<em>Polyduece</em>and<em>Aegis of War</em>take the hits. With a flick of a few switches, her PPCs hummed to life.
