*Bret starts pulling on his jacket and shoes.....He works his new hand carefully so he can tie his boot strings*
Bret:..I'm still not used to this.....At least now I'm able to get back on my ship now......First things first though!...I have to see the guys on Islay..Maybe they can do something with this arm to help me in Gallia...
*Bret walks through the halls of Med.Force.One to the hangar bay.....A shuttle with the two [Cerberus] guards waiting for him...*
[Cerberus] Guard 1:...You ready to go sir? Bret:..Yeah...Lets go...The faster I get on the V..the better....Once we get on Gran Canaria...You two can go back to your lives.....but for now...just get us to Gran Canaria... [Cerberus] Guard 1:...Yes sir... *The shuttle begins to take off from Med.Force.One and heads to Canaria Space port*
==30 MINUTES LATER==
==LOCATION--MAVERICK.V==
*Bret walks onto the elevator on board the Maverick.V* Bret:...Command deck.... *The elevator shunts upward...then stops a few seconds later* COMMS:....*Command Deck*.... *Bret raises his head as he sees a familiar scene* Bret:....Its been far too long.......All right....Let's see if this thing still has it..... *Bret walks along the ships consoles and begins to pressing certain commands* Strange Voice:.../If you wish....You can tell me the destination you require to go to\... *Bret suddenly turns to look for the source of the voice...His ears going in different directions...A small blue orb begins to shine over on the console near his chair* Bret:....What the heck?.... Strange Voice:.../Do not be alarmed.....I am designated as Naoko...I am the ship's Navigator and Assistant...I was installed by Ilo Takato in case of emergencies and other duties\... Bret:..All right then.....Better make good use of this.....Plot in a course for Islay then... Naoko:../Yes Sir....Course plotted....Is there anything else I can do for you?\.... *Bret takes his seat and looks through the ship's forward view* Bret:...Just get us there as quickly as possible....I have business there... Naoko:.../Yes Sir....Engaging undocking procedures....and prepping Cruise engines\... Bret:..Wake me when we get to Islay.... Naoko:.../Yes Sir\... *Bret rests his head on his shoulder and closes his eyes*
Gaian Tech:...Your nuts!......Why for the love of Gaia would you want something like that?! Bret:...That's for me to deal with...Now are you going to do the upgrades or not?...I don't have time to discuss this more then needed... Gaian Tech:...Yes we can....I just hope you know what your doing.... Bret:..If I'm going to get back at those Gallics....I may have to get close and personal...I don't know how to use a gun....but this will make up for it...The techs from TAZ can did a bit...but I feel it can be pushed more.... Gaian Tech:...All right.....Lay on the table and well get to work......I can't believe that we're doing this....Zoner Technology combined with Gaian... *Bret walks up to the tech table and lays down on it....looking into the lights above the table....thinking of the future....
==5 HOURS LATER==
Gaian Tech:...That's it....We're done...Now we should go over a few details of the additions to the device the Zoners made and... *Bret lifts his left arm and fires at one of the nearby tables....creating a charred hole through it* Bret:...I think I can learn as I go....
Bret:...I am finally ready for you Gallic Royals and anyone else who tries it.........
