Stacy sat in a private hanger at a desk with a simple computer. She typed and then would use a stylus on a specialized pad every now and then. It had been a few hours since she had left Lisa's office. When she had returned to her work, her boss had already found out that she was now the boss of him. Because of this position she was able to secure a location to begin work on a new mobile suit.
There was a long print out of data thrown over the desk. Not only did she print out the data from Kiyoshi's simulation, but also any information the computers could gather from this data. After she had analyzed it for a long period of time, she began work designing the new suit.
There were two factors that would limit this design. One was the fact that she could not build it in what Kiyoshi had described as a "Variable Frame" mobile suit. Unlike the designs Kiyoshi had shown earlier to others, this mobile suit would not be a Multi-Purpose mobile suit. This would be an Attack Use Mobile Suit. The other factor that limited the suits design was cost. Since this was a side project she did not want to divert too much funds from the regular mobile suit production, nor did she want to get too much attention brought onto her.
She knew that if this design worked out on paper, the next problem would be selecting the workers to build it. She would have to select not only the best, but also the ones that could keep their mouths closed.
Her mind didn't stay on this thought for long, she began to think about Kiyoshi. Wondering what he was up to. She didn't worry about his safety, she knew he could take care of himself. If half of what had been said about him was true, he could do that well enough.
Then her mind randomly jumped to Ensign Base Rynolds. She couldn't explain her reasons for being attracted to him. If anyone would have been a better choice it would have been Base's best friend Ensign Eota Mars. He was usually calm and cool, unlike Base. Maybe that was it, she was deep down attracted to men that were wrong with her. Stacy was also a little upset that she didn't get to have her date with Base after leaving Lisa's office. Their commanding officer, Han Richards herded them off to their mobile suits for more training. She understood it had to be done, but it did not change the fact that she wanted to have her date.
Looking at her watch she shook her head clearing her mind and got back to work.

Lisa sat behind Kiyoshi's desk as a group of citizens from some public relations board came into the office. There were five of them. Three of men, and two women. All of them were elderly, which Lisa knew this meant that they'd most likely be cantankerous.
Lisa - Hello, I am sorry about the delay for your meeting, Mr. Kazami is out on a diplomatic mission at this time. I have been given orders to help you in any way that's possible.
The Board leader sat down in front of Lisa while the others sat around him. He was a bald elderly man who walked with a cane.
Board Leader - It is a shame, for that pertains to one of the reasons why we came here.
Lisa - Oh?
Board Leader - Yes, we are wondering just exactly where is our leader. Ever since the attacks on L3, he has been missing from the spotlight. This makes many of us, the citizens of L3, worry. Has he backed away in fear of the opposition from Earth?
Lisa looked into the Board Leader's eyes as she stood up placing her hands on her desk.
Lisa - Kiyoshi Kazami is not afraid of the enemy opposition. As you know, Kiyoshi Kazami is a former member of }{G, which means he has seen far worse than the Gundam attack that happened yesterday. Mr. Kazami has not and would not abandon the people of L3, who is directly fighting for! Just because he is not here in person does not mean he is not here in spirit. He has left L3 in capable hands, as you should know.
Board Leader - Yes, you've been in this office for a long time Ms. Nichruen, but I wonder, is this your own secret objective? Perhaps you are the one to blame for the reports that the terrorist earth forces were practically allowed to walk out of the prison they attacked!
This was news to Lisa, but she did not let her face show it.
Lisa - I know for fact that Mr. Kazami was in the prison at the time of the attack. He would not have let them just walk out of there, if he was able to prevent it.
Board Leader - I would hope not. If Mr. Kazami did let them escape, would that not show that he has an allegiance to earth and not the colonies?
Lisa - Mr. Kazami would do nothing that would endanger the colony of L3. This is his home. He was born here!
The Board Leader smiled with a sinister glee in his eyes.
Board Leader - No, he was created here.
Lisa - If you want to be so technical, then yes, his parents did create him here.
Board Leader - Ms. Nichruen, would you call a team of scientists "parents"?
Lisa couldn't hold back her shock from this information this time, but she hid it away as fast as she could.
Lisa - What do you mean?
Board Leader - You do not know everything about Kiyoshi Kazami, do you, Ms. Nichruen?

Han stood in a small command post somewhere in L3. A computer that controlled Mobile Dolls was in front of him. He watched a screen displaying 21 Taurus Mobile Dolls along with two Leo's. The Leo's had his two Ensigns, Eota and Base, inside of them.
Han - Okay kids, this is going to be a bit tougher this time. Each of these mobile dolls will be as good as me. There's twenty-one in all, and it's up to the two of you to destroy them. You're using your live weapons, so try and be a little careful where your shooting, don't want to hit the colony too hard. Alright, begin!
Base and Eota launched out of the colony and quickly got their bearings. Soon the two of them saw several Taurus units in arrow formation.
Base - Split up, take out as many as you can!
Eota - Right!
Eota fired his verniers and went to the right. He aimed his beam rifle and fired twice before bringing up his shield to block the beam rifle attacks from two Taurus units that fired as they transformed out of fighter mode. Once they had stopped fired, Eota lined up his shot and fired once at each of the Taurus suits. Two of them burst into flames as the blast hit through their main camera's. Eota then quickly shifted his suit to the side dodging attacks from other Taurus's.
Base flew in his headstrong manner, drawing his Leo's beam saber and cut through two Taurus suits in two consecutive slashes. Base then turned his suit around and shielded himself as another three Taurus's flew past him firing. Base's suit took a few hits, but by turning around and replacing his beam saber and aiming his beam rifle again, he managed to shoot down all three.
Base - Heh too easy...
The warning alarm goes of fin Base's cockpit but before he has time to react, his Leo is hit several times from the Taurus suits beam rifles. This destroys his shield and part of his leg.
Base - Damnit! Means I need even more repairs!
Back in the command center Han shakes his head as he gives the commands to make the Taurus's go a bit easier on Base. He didn't want Base or Eota to be destroyed, but he had to give these two as much experience as he could.
