Relief

I almost can't believe it. No, no, that's all wrong. I knew it all along. I knew Toby, I mean lt Watson, was safe.

[Despite all the dramatic circumstances that happened lately, Setsuko acts really happy and glad. It's like if a great weight was taken off her body and troubled mind.]


Good to be back, Unity Group. I bet everyone's wondering what I've been up to lately, right?

After the La Gias tragedy, I woke up in headquarters of some people. They call themselves Chimera, and it looks like they're interested in gathering information and distributing it for good of mankind, this kind of stuff. This is why they knew about Asakim.

They told me to keep my head down if I'm to find him - and looks like it worked. I told one of them, really nice guy, about Unity Group. They knew about us already of course, but that one guy promised he'll get in contact soon. So yeah, that's pretty much it.

...


We had time to talk, Setsuko and I. I know what heppened to her, and to Chief. Asakim Dowen got away this time, acting like that Patulia thing was enough to take us down. It wasn't, and the next time we meet...

"What do they do?" Dido asks. "Or defend, as the case might be?"

[glorystargo]

Looks like they're specialists in uncovering hard-to find information and making sure it reaches good ears. Or something like that.

"So they're...private eyes? With mechas?" Dido asks, frowning.

The image she's forming in her head of Chimera is really, really divorced from reality.

[glorystargo]

Not quite. It's... well, I guess I'd better let that guy explain himself when he comes in to say hello.

"Think they're going to join the Unity Group?" Dido wonders. "I mean, if they're a world protecting organization..."

[glorystargo]

That'd be awesome! I don't think they have any military weapons though.

[actuallyselfish]

"That is kind of a requirement to survive as part of the UG." Dido muses.

She sighs and rubs the back of her head.

"Man...we've just picked up a bunch of enemies these last few months. Nemeses, for that matter! You and Setsuko have Asakim, and..."

Dido's voices trailed off, and she broods.

[glorystargo]

Yeah...

But as long as we're together we can work this thing out, right?
