Rising Flags

[1]

[Yuuya and the Argos flight have been scarce for UG group functions outside their required duties and today is the day it's revealed why as they announce the Blue Flag excercises out of the Yukon base. Several flights have made their presence known from around the world including the Bao Feng flight from China and the Infinities from the United States. As the festivities begin to kick off the units are on display parked in formation and the flights are welcoming guests and providing photo ops, including a rather tired looking Yuuya who seems on edge.]

[The mock battles aren't the only reason for so much excitement at the Yukon base either. There's a big ceremony going on concerning a new "fast-response" brand of machine finally getting the clear for combat usage too. Although not taking part in the mock battles, exhibitions to display the machines' capabilities are scheduled. Before long those displays begin, the "Breaker" models taking to the sky to show off their maneuverability and speed... announces and various individuals involved with the program talking abut the breakthrough "RE Drive", a scientific marvel discovered by someone outside of the ESUN who nevertheless provided them with the details of creating them. But duing one display, several Breakers engaging in complicated maneuvers with each other, someone speaks up nearby you.]



You know what's funny? Up until about two weeks ago they were still trying to fix the defects in their fancy systems. I'm willing to bet any of the project heads are still sweating bullets and praying that there aren't any more gremlins biding their time.

[And the Mock Battles begin! Knowing that the Unity Group has been working with TSF test flights for several operations and that they may want to participate as well there are training weapons available in a wide range of forms and functions. For those with mecha less capable of using the pain equipment there are also several production units capable of using them available for use by anyone with proper piloting credentials.]

Ah.

[Is that all Setsuko has to say as a response to this flood of new information?]


You have some real insider info right there, Yuuya. I swear, it's like you were involved with F-22's development yourself!

[ugyuuya]

Well that's something that is a little touchy to talk about with the standard classification of information between different forces. I did serve at Groom Lake before being placed on administrative leave and being re-assigned to Yukon and the Argos flight.

[Yuuya's face falls as he sees a team of American pilots walk past, the woman in the group seems to recognize him and make a small wave but they did not stop to chat.]

I think they'll be the hardest fight for more than one reason.

[star_of_sad]

That reason being?

[ugyuuya]

Something that Leon still holds against me if that look on his face is any indication. It's... difficult, to talk about and the records of what happened are still sealed so I can't go into a lot of detail.

It's part of why I was placed on said administrative leave leading to re-assignment and the replacement of two pilots in the F-22 test program.

[Yuuya seems to follow the American's for a moment more before turning back towards his position.]

I'm sorry to be a bit short about this but this really isn't the place to talk about this. Ask again later and I'll say more but this is supposed to be a festive event.

[glorystargo]

You're going to be so mysterious and then leave us hanging, Yuuya? Come on.


No, he's right Toby. This is no place to talk about such things... perhaps later, okay?
