Welcome to Gaia! ::

The 200 years that earth was divided technology had advenced enough to be considers future a hole new type of war age now space battles have started to appear and has started a whole new war

-K awoke in his sleeping chamber, aboard the Arc. The pod hissed and opened, stopping with a mechanical click.

"Sleep well captain?" asked the service bot that hovered around him as he stepped out of the pod.

"sb-5... what is the current time?"

"0-600 Captain... and you are scheduled for a stress test, followed by a simulation at 0-700"

"Alright... lets head down to the bridge"

-K walked out of the sleeping chamber cell and headed to the bridge, in order to receive further instruction from the general. sb-5 followed close behind.

The captain kept on down the hall, hearing the loud sirens ringing throughout the Arc, but did nothing as he was use to it. -K had arrived at the bridge and took a seat in his chair, noticing the ships on the monitor were DSS.

-K: "Mercenaries... yeah, they'll remain allies with Dios forces... as long as the pay is good."

-K stood up to get some coffee to wake himself up, since he felt as if he were jet lagged as the sleeping chamber always made him feel. He got to the coffee machine and grabbed one of the metal coffee cups and filled it with the press of a button. The steaming hot liquid smelled so good.

-K: "A bit of a pick me up to start the day... If I have to deal with these DSS Squad members, I'm going to need a clear head... they are actually a great ally to Dios, lets just hope they keep bringing in the credits."

-K went back to his seat and awaited the entrance of the DSS crew members, seeing as how the general was nowhere to be found.

-K spun around in his chair upon hearing a familiar voice.

-K: "Death... that you?"

He stood up and shook the hand of his old friend.

-K: "About 5 years I think, So... running with the DSS these days I see... They pay you quite handsomely, I presume?"

The captain crossed his arms and leaned against the metallic computer desk, being cautious of Death. He was -K's friend, yes, however he was a mercenary all the same, and mercenaries would turn on their own flesh and blood for the right pay. -K held his hands on his pistols as a precaution.

-K: "You said you would never bring harm upon me... Being a mercenary hasn't changed that fact, correct?"

-K eased up and chuckled nervously.

-K: "Sorry my friend... just can't be too careful in this day and age."

He sat back down and looked to Deathwalker, puzzled as he asked where the general was.

-K: "Now that you mention it... I haven't seen him this morning... at all"

At that instant a stress call flashed across the large LCD monitors.

General Dios: "Send backup immediately! Were being hammered by UED forces!"

The screen went fuzzy, then flashed back to the general.

General Dios: "Damn it!... I've taken on heavy damage and my escape pod won't deploy! -K... If you are listening to this call... I rest the Dios squad in your hands Captain... I have faith in you"

The general coughed as smoke filled the cockpit, wires sparking.

General Dios: "General Dios... signing off for the last time... its been an honor..."

With that the feed cut off, static was all that could be seen on the monitor.

-K sat back in his seat, a single tear running down his cheek. Dios had always been like a father to him.

-K stood up and nodded to his friend.

-K: "I won't let you down... General Dios"

He muttered this to himself, before following Death to the hanger area.

-K: "I hope my simulation training paid off... I haven't even test driven my mobile suit... In fact, I've never even seen it before."

-K looked up at the 50 foot mech suits, noticing his name on a hovering metal plate, but the space where his mech should be was empty. The floor then opened and a lift device brought up his mobile suit. -K gazed at it in awe, before being ambushed by two female androids who stripped him down and forced him into a tight rubber bodysuit. they zipped it up in the front and the material settled to a snug fit, before boots were slipped onto his feet. The captain struggled a bit as he was fitted with his uniform. The last things they put on him, were his gloves and helmet. They backed away and giggled at -K.

Android 1: "Fitted all snug in your uniform Captain?"
Android 2: "I think he's blushing."

-K pressed the button on the side of his helmet, which slid the visor shut. The two androids walked away, still giggling at him. He flexed his arm, noticing that his mobile suit followed his exact movement in unison.

-K's eyes glowed with a blue aura, as did his arms and chest. His mobile suit's chest plate glowed with the same aura and slid open, horizontally. The captain then crossed his arms absentmindedly, leaping up into the air as a metal ring slid out of the mech's chest plate under -K's feet. He hovered there in the blue light projected by the ring. The ring slid back into place, bringing -K into the suit, his eyes closing as his life force linked with the mech. He was now seeing through the eyes of the mobile suit.

-K: "Now this is cool... I could get used to this."

The mobile suit's jet turbines sparked into life, causing the mech to hover as there are no feet. -K had a bit of difficulty with his balance as the mech swayed back and forth, before the captain retained his balance. He focused his energy on the jet boosters, causing the mech to hover forward.

-K: "Alright now... easy does it... better focus a bit more of my energy on the boosters."

The mobile suit, then bolted out of the hanger as a result of focusing too much energy on the boosters. The captain careened out of control as he was shot out into the vacuum of space, toning his focus down a bit. -K quickly set his focus back onto the turbines, bringing his mech to a halt, right as it was about to collide with a transport ship. He let out a sigh of relief as an angry voice shouted over the com-line.

Transport ship pilot: "HEY!!! WATCH IT YOU MORON!!! LEARN TO CONTROL THAT THING!!!"

-K laughed nervously, rubbing the back of his head, the mobile suit following the exact motion.

-K: "Sorry about that... First time piloting an actual mobile suit."

He turned and followed after Death and his crew, flying next to him.

-K got the message

-K: "I read you loud and clear... -K over and out"

He pulled the blaster pistols from the mech's hip holsters, prepared to engage any hostiles they may encounter along the way. The captain then followed close behind the ships, evenly distributing the focus of his energy on the jet turbines and boosters. This made for smooth sailing through space.

-K: "I think I'm getting the hang of this."

He thought.
