Isabel was rather quiet behind the controls of her GM, something that she was still having a hard time getting adjusted to after the loss of her Gundam. Naturally it was outfitted with some pretty basic equipment, and she couldn't even get her sniper rifle with it like before. Then again, after what had happened during the last major battle, Isabel wouldn't have been surprised at all to hear that she was being 'replaced' as the team's sniper/ forward observer by the newcomer who would likely take better care of his unit then she did. She was just an extra gun on this mission, unable to take action until the others in her unit moved forward and began the battle. She was, after all, in a significantly inferior mobile suit that would go down much faster then a Gundam.<br/><br/>...........................................<br/><br/>Jillian jolted when the sirens started blazing, rushing towards her shiny new Dom when she bumped across Lucille and her caretaker along the way there. She naturally skidded to a halt, quite surprised to see the duo still planetside. "What in the world are you two still doing here? I thought you were slated for departure days ago?"<br/><br/>With the sirens of an invasion going off, Jillian was naturally quite concerned about the safety of Lucille.<br/><br/>...........................................<br/><br/>Colonel Acar would hear a knock at his door, once he granted the knocker entry, one Captain Graves would make his way inside and give another calm salute, as though there weren't invasion sirens blaring all over the place. "Colonel, sir... I hereby request permission for you to ground the regular forces temporarily and allow my Stalkers to be a vanguard force. If there is a federation trap that's trying to be laid out, I'd rather trigger it with a small group rather then the entirety of our forces."<br/><br/>
