Jillian chuckled and looked down at Lucille, the sight of the young girl being so bright and energetic warming her heart even more. As far as she was concerned, everything was starting to look on the up and up. After all, her allies had come back alive all those days ago when they fought against the Gundams, every single one of them, and now she and her trusted partner would be able to use their incredible new Mobile Suits to fight the Gundams on an even playing field. Then, of course, Lucille was also having a fantastic time at the front now, so there wasn't much that the redhead could really find room to complain about.<br/><br/>.............................................<br/><br/>Isabel's turn with the spook came last, it seemed, as Alice caught up with the raven haired woman while she was still dwelling on her fears and concerns about rather or not she would ever really be able to feel empathy again. She didn't want to be some heartless, soulless human... But that was the life that she had lived.<br/><br/>The blonde walked over towards her bed, speaking in that same arrogant and overpowering voice that she had addressed the two men with.<br/>"Isabel Raimen?"<br/><br/>Isabel glanced up at her, surprised to see another new woman in camp.<br/>"?"<br/><br/>Isabel's eyes suddenly shot wide open.... well... wide open by her standards anyway. To anybody other then Isabel and perhaps the two other Gundam pilots it would look like she was just appearing mildly more alive and filled with concern. This woman... The way she carried herself from the way that she stood, the smoke, the way she spoke... Everything seemed to remind her of that man... That man that completely changed Isabel's life as she knew it back home.<br/><em>"You're pathetic, all of you deserve to die!"<br/>"Gahahah, look at the rats as they scramble away for their lives... Not so fast little ratties..."</em><br/><br/>By now, a few seconds of silence had passed, and all Isabel had done was look up towards Alice and make a small humming sound. Alice, expecting some sort of introduction, or at least a verbal acknowledgement of her presence. As such, her eyes were already narrowed with suspicion and curiosity.<br/>"Uh... Is there something wrong with you?"<br/><br/>Isabel shook her head. "No."<br/><br/>Silence again, before Alice let out a frustrated groan and crossed her arms. She spoke in a voice that rang with more frustration then arrogance or self-assurance this time.<br/>"I'm Alice Miller with Federation Intelligence, and I'm here to ask you a few questions about the case of Colonel Alexander."<br/>"Okay."<br/><br/>Silence again. Isabel wondered why Alice cared so much about what happened that night, the colonel was already dead, so what was the point of looking into the case further? Did intelligence little have so much to do that they had to look deeper into every little thing? As far as Isabel was concerned, this wasn't because intelligence wanted to root out Zeon sympathizers, this was just intelligence being bored and finally having something to do where they could fool themselves into thinking that they were contributing something to the war effort.<br/><br/>"What were you and your unit doing that night? Why weren't you at base to stop the colonel for helping the prisoners to get away?"<br/>"Unit 3 was having some problems with his night vision... Unit 1 was helping him... I was lookout."<br/>"Uh, huh... Kinda odd though, the way that all three of you had issues with your data recorders too, don't you think."<br/>"Yes. Federation data-recorders are really faulty."<br/><br/>Silence again. This time it was obvious that Alice was just trying to save face with the conversation and not explode because of the frustration that came with talking to this socially awkward woman. Who the hell<em>was</em>she? Some kind of freak or something?<br/>"Alright, one last thing. How do you feel about this whole mess, Raimen? Are you mad at the colonel for letting such important guests get away?"<br/>"I'm a soldier, it's not my job to care about what the people above me do."<br/><br/>Alice leaned in, rubbing one of her temples gently.<br/>"Well, this was a rather enlightening conversation... As you were, Raimen."<br/><br/>With that, Alice left Isabel in peace again, the Raven haired woman sighed softly and pressed back against the bed with a small sigh.
