[Kira Yamato]

(((OCC: This takes place after Creuset's faction left Kaguya Mass Driver)))

The Minerva docked at the pier and Kira order only essential personnel including pilots to accompany him at the meeting. After the announcement Kira got up from the captain's chair and waited for his pilots to return.

[Akitsuki Yamato]

Epyon flies towards Minerva's hanger bay so it can be repaired. Shinya quickly takes the cable down to the floor and runs over to the pilots lounge. He puts on his ZAFT uniform.

[Sakurai Honoka]

As soon as the Epyon landed, Vent Savior landed as well. Realizing the urgency of the meeting Sakurai jumped down from the cable as it was lowering. She quickly ran to the female pilot's lounge. She quickly put her skirt on and her boots. She then put the top part of her uniform. Before she left she took a look at herself in the mirror to make sure she look alright. She then ran for the door. As soon as the door open she saw Shinya. She briefly blushed and asked Shinya if he was ready.

[Eric R. Takemura]

Eric landed his damaged Gail Strike at the pier near the Minerva and he pressed a few buttons as the Strike's cockpit hatch opened up as he thought he was under dressed since he was still in his civilian clothes.

[Sven Cal Bayan]

Epyon and Vent Savior left to land in Minerva's hanger. Strike Noir decided to land close to the pier where Gail Strike was located. While Strike Noir landed Sven can see Minerva up close. He then opened a comm-link to Eric. "Shall I go with you, Sir?" He asked.

[Eric R. Takemura]

Eric was surprised for a few moments when he heard Sven's voice then Eric thought for a few moments. "All right you can come with me Sven." Eric replied to Sven then got up from his seat then he rode down a cable line from the Gail Strikes cockpit.

[Sven Cal Bayan]

"Alright I'll be there soon," replied Sven. He then took the cable down to the ground and walked over to Eric. "Captain," he said. "What about Setsuna? Where is his present location?"

[Akitsuki Yamato]

Shinya looked at Sakurai for a brief moment. He thought to himself how cute she was. He then came to his senses and nodded at Sakurai. "Let's get going we don't want Yamato-taicho to get mad," he said.

[Sakurai Honoka]

Sakurai noticed Shinya was looking at her and she looked down and blushed. "H-hai, ikimasho!" she said motioning Shinya that they were going to leave together to meet the captian at the bridge.

[Akitsuki Yamato]

The two of them waited in the elevator that will take them to the bridge. Shinya looked at Sakurai and smiled. "You did great out there," he said.

[Sakurai Honoka]

Sakurai held her chest because she could feel a pounding. "Th-thank you," she said as she managed to respond to him. Sakurai still wanted to convey her feelings to him. By the time she was finish "thinking" they had already arrived at the bridge.

[Akitsuki Yamato]

As Shinya arrived on the bridge he greeted Yamato-taicho with a salute as a sign of respect even though Shinya is no longer under Kira's order.

"Shinya Tanaka, reporting" he replied.

[Sakurai Honoka]

As soon as Shinya finished announcing himself Sakurai immediately announced herself. "Sakurai Honoka, reporting," she said as she saluted Kira.

[Kira Yamato]

Kira saluted them both. "Good job out there," he said to the both of them. "I know it was a tough battle and ORB suffered some casualties, but we held on. Cagalli is assessing the damages and will join us shortly. Let's get going," he said as he led them to the elevator.

[Eric R. Takemura]

"I've sent him back to the Grey Phantom, and I can't leave the ship defenseless since I still had Stellar with me." Eric said as his cable got near the ground then he hopped off of it.
