On board the Gallop, Lucille was in one of the Conference Rooms. Emma was going over her daily studies which bored the little girl out of her skull. She wanted to watch the mobile suits some more. "Miss Washburn, Would please pay attention. While the Rise of the Principality of Zeon may not be very interesting to you. It is crucial for you to know this." Emma chastised as she saw the small girl no longer paying attention. "But, Nanna. Why did We come here? It is so boring. I was hoping to see the Mobile suits in Action." Lucille huffed. "Little Lucy..." "Little Lucy", it was a nick name that Emma called her when she was dropping the formalities of their respective stations. "War is a terrible thing. You may not realize it, but each one of those mobile suits you see exploding to ceasing to function carries within it a human being. Someone's Son, daughter, Mother, Father." Emma said saddened. Lucille stood up and came to her Caretaker. "I am sorry, Nanna. Don't cry." Lucille said as she buried her face in Emma's dress. Emma sniffed a bit as she wiped a tear that was threatening to fall from the corner of her eye.<br/><br/>The next moment, the Gallop rocked violently. Sending the two across the room. Emma used her body to cushion Lucille, and prevent her from getting hurt. The lights in the room dimmed as an alarm was sounded. "Battle stations. Federation forces attacking. All Mobile suits form a defense line. Don't let them get near the Gallop." The PA announced as the sound of boots against deck plates could be heard. In the Radio room, The operator was sending an SOS. The bored that seemed to gnaw at Lucille's Mind was now replaced by fear as a another violent explosion rocked the Gallop.
