3rd Omega system - Independent Worlds - Shukensha Liner - 05/15/822 "Are they gone? Oh jeeeze. It wouldnt be that bad if I knew this ship."
Liss sighed loudly again and slowly got up on her feet, walking to the door now. She slowly opened them and entered corridor again where she found a dead woman. She tried to proceed further, hoping a Red sector is on the end of this long hall.
Following the signs... She'd reached the entrance to Red sector, no noise, no fighting... Only the continued ambiance outside. Reaching a long straight corridor with a door door on the other side, she'd see that its locked, key-cards wouldn't work, Vergil wouldn't respond the the commands. Suddenly a security barrier slammed shut right behind her, locking her in a very small space.
Foot steps started approaching from the other side of the door leading to Red Sector... "Vergil... This was a bit harsh... don't you think?"
The door opens, only showing one man, the owner, Enfield. "Sorry about this Liss, giving my AI's the power to learn is a bit... Dangerous, they tend to have fun, even if i limited Vergil's capabilities, Vergil stop the simulation."
The room around her starts to vanish, the weapon disappearing from her hand. Everything was reverting to... The "Holo-Simulation" room's inactive state.
3rd Omega system - Independent Worlds - Shukensha Liner - 05/15/822 "Hands up or I will sho... Enfield?"
Liss looks around as everything disappears around her, even weapon she was holding. She lets out a loud sigh of relief and walks to Enfield slowly, hugging him tightly before she moved back.
"Sorry, I got scared a bit... Last time I've been in this situation... Uhh few years ago on Cadiz... Once more sorry!"
He gives a chuckle, merely accepting the hug. "Mphmm, you requested a combat simulation before hand, Vergil had one loaded already once you got here, unfortunately for you, it seemed that it might of pushed your limits. Lets see..."
As she lets go, he moves his hand in mid air, bringing up holographic panel. "Military training scores are high, Situational awareness is also good... Kill count is fifteen... preemptive tactics are also good... You want to be aware that shouting isn't good, you look at them first, identify in a split second, and then fire. Overall... I'd say you'd make a great agent."
He shakes his head, walking towards the exit of the Holo-Simulation room. "Although I'm not exactly someone who is in stable relations with my employer, come on, lets grab a drink, it seems like hell for you all over again."
3rd Omega system - Independent Worlds - Shukensha Liner - 05/15/822 "Jeeeeeze, it's even recording my score? I thought it was a reality... Good work on this one.
, Enfield." Liss smiles and comes closer to look at her score, then she gives him a smirk.
"Not bad... If I knew it's simulation, I would act more like a profesional, ha?"
Liss giggles kindly and follows Enfield towards the exit of the room, happily whistling.
"Not sure if I want to be an Agent again. When I used to be a member of project ROS, I were part of the Fallen Angel wing. The Fallen Angels used to be Braillia's ears and eyes, our primary objective was Intell and sabotage." She keeps talking for a while, not sure if she impressed Enfield at all.
"Eyes and ears? Huh~ Well, I'd thought that being an agent is something for the long term. But not for everyone i guess..."
Walking to the turbo elevator, the doors open without him even pressing a button, and as they both climb in the doors shut immediately and the turbo-lift moves up straight away. "We're moving to my quarters, its level Epsilon access right now, not many people come in here, but I'm sure i can trust you, its not that its classified stuff, its because its my little getaway area, i mean, if you want to steal a few weaponized limbs, go ahead, if you're up for using something that needs a second brain."
As they walk in, he walks over to an open bar that he also has, one slightly larger that the Corporate Villas, and even includes its own seating area. "People see me as a BDM agent, one that will stay loyal to the end of the Rheinland... Its crap, that's not true, please sit~"
He picks up a bottle of vodka and some other juice, and putting it in a mixer, shaking it. "Now, sorry for being a little behind the times, but when you're switching sides frequently, you lose touch with a lot of things that happen. But who exactly are the Reapers of Sirius? I've heard names, not much."
He throws it all in a blender pitcher filled with ice before shredding it into a slush.
3rd Omega system - Independent Worlds - Shukensha Liner - 05/15/822 "To your quarters uh? I guess not everyone ccan visit your little hideout." Liss says silently, apparently being kinda nervous now.
"Well not everyone is loyal to the end... I guess I am still loyal to Reapers, even if they are gone already. You know, it's kinda special to be called "Probably The Last One""
Liss nods and carefuly sits down, looking at Geoff
"Not sure where to start... Everything started in old Sol system, Reapers are probably one of the oldest groups in Sirius... Together with Coalition. The Alliance made a secret project called "The Fallen Angels" special trained people, fighting on the battlefield against Coalition, but shortly before Alliance left Sol in 5 sleeper ships, we left them... We left people in Sol and we travelled around the universe. Few years ago, few people from project "The Fallen Angels" arrived to Sirius sector and found the wreck of "Hispania". Maltese people offered us Borderworld ships, equipment, food and much more for a power. We were their "Shield and Sword" in the crusade against Corsairs. But one day, we had enough of their orders, stuff and so on... We left them and our convoy of people, soldiers and children followed remnants of "The Fallen Angels" to the Cayman where we established few projects called Safe Haven, Antikythera, Manatum and Kara. We established our own system, groups and we were independent for so long. We had our own source of fuel, food, water and metal... However a lot of us were Cardamine addicts, so we initiated new protocol and tried to plant a Cardamine field on planet Braillia which resulted in a disaster... Planet is contaminated and won't be habitable for so long. I have to admit, even I am Cardamine addict." Liss says silently and lowers her look, she for sure isn't proud of being addicted to Cardamine.
"Well, I don't see a problem with it, its a drug, or substance that you end up having to take for the rest of your life, even if its not enjoyable."He stops the blender, and looks at his arm, giving Liss a good look at it too. "I have to live with this thing, I don't care anymore about what others think. People like the Gaians shun it, because it's not... Natural., just like cardamine isnt seen as normal. Everyone has their reasons, but for one reason I keep it is because it keeps me alive and protected, almost the same. One person in my department is also addicted to cardamine, although I've come to a dilemma of giving her the pure powder or the synthetic variant." He pours out a blue slush cocktail into two glasses, passing one to Liss. "But Valkyrie, what happened to her... Leaving all of a sudden?" He takes a few large sips of the cocktail slush, clamping his eyes shut tightly... Possibly brain freeze.
3rd Omega system - Independent Worlds - Shukensha Liner - 05/15/822 "You are right, people don't need to like it..." Liss says and happily takes the glass with a bow.
"Cardamine, it's something you can't decide if you will or won't use it... I haven't had this choice."
Liss looks up at Geoff again and lets out a loud sigh.
"She used to be assistant of our Archons, or second in command if you want to call it like that. She also used to lead one of our strike wings called Devil Wings. Reapers used to have many wings and each of them played different, but important role. Names were Devil Wings, Epigoni, Garuda, Skull and Fallen Angels... And I used to be in the Intell Wing, The Fallen Angels. My task was to keep an eye on Maltese nation in their homeworld... One day something happend. I was called back from Malta because our current Archon disappeared, new Archon's ship has been disabled deep in Corsair space and Kate Golanska known as Valkyrie left Cayman as well. She left on her own though, nobody knew except our Archon, but people including me saw her flying under The Order flag now. Maybe it's the right time to leave Cayman as well, for good.
Only giving an affirming nod, he let's silence pass for a bit, drinking his drink, before raising an eyebrow. "Soo~ Any plans for the future? I'd doubt someone as young as you is stopping straight away." He gives a small smile.
