"Hmm...I see...there seems to be a paradox on the disappearance of cargo ships to Galaxy Quadrant 4-YE...I'll have to send a team to investigate this matter..." said Kanex, as he looked at the documents he had just received, and then looked at a picture on his desk. "Alma...

"MAAAAAN...." said Artik, groaning as he looked at his partner. "I hate waiting on people...especially when they can't make up their minds..." he said, sighing heavily as he set his notepad down and tried to relax. "I mean even data entry is better than this..." he said, as he looked at the clock, and suddenly blanked out for a bit
"I can't continue the job, Artik..." said a red-haired male, as he pointed a gun at Artik. "What do you mean? We're supposed to be...AHG!" said Artik, as the other male pulled the trigger, snapping Artik out of his flashback.

"Im glad you both have come. This mission is of uttermost importance. It requires two highly skilled operatives, so you two are the people for the job. When you are ready, a transport will transport you both to Galaxy Quadrant 4-YE, planet Gert. There you are to investigate and put a stop to the source of the cargo ship disappearances. I wish you luck on your mission. Dismissed." said Kanex, as he turned around in his chair, and looked out the glass panels to the sky.

"I'm sorry, but I'm getting bored with these dull little cargo ships."
A figure stood silhouetted against the ghost-like spheres that were the two moons of Aria; their ethereal light shone through the wall-wide window of Viktor Craven's office. The window overlooked a vast metropolis that sprawled across a quarter of Aria, a sea of twinkling lights and shining beams that stood in stark contrast to the darkness of Aria. Outside the sprawling capital of Lelania, Aria's only city, Aria was a rather quiet little planet, which suited Craven perfectly. The X-Class Shadow Phoenix paced around his unlit office, hands on his hips; an earpiece comm system could barely be seen attached to his ear, concealed behind waves of dark brown hair.
"There's hardly anything worthwhile on those ships in the first place," he continued, pausing as the person on the other line spoke. "No, no one of importance either....it seems to me the Fate Runners haven't made a move yet...no, as said, if there wasn't any valuable cargo on the last freighter I doubt there will be on the next..." As the other person spoke Craven chuckled and shook his head. "Don't be so thick, I know you're not this slow. If they know cargo is being seized, or at least disappearing, on the 4-YE route, they're not about to send their nice crap on it...yeah, well, you let me know if any of them show up and I'll pay them a visit of sorts." With that Craven removed the earpiece and set it on a nearby desk, and then he turned and walked towards the window, looking out on Aria.
"Well, here's hoping those kids at the Fate Runners get their asses in gear for this one."

A cargo ship is seen going into a docking bay, near the transport area where Ciar and Mirra arrived to investigate the disappearances. They were escorted to a private room with a control panel with all the information they needed.

"My god, this hell-forsaken port again," Craven murmured quietly to himself. He was dressed in the typical garb of a businessman--after all, being recognised as a Shadow Phoenix agent wouldn't do much good for him here. Here on Gert, though, there were of course very many businessmen--a category of people Craven held a great amount of disdain for. Caring so much for money and personal wealth--they thought it gave them power. Craven scoffed--true power could not be gained from petty, material objects to which people assigned value.
Well, there's that ship... he thought as he strode casually past the designated cargo ship.

Glancing around the areas she was told to search, Mirra waited patiently as a man came out of a room, mumbling something about 'break time.' Before he closed the door, she walked right past him and slipped her foot in the crick of the door, opening it once he was gone and slipping inside. The room seemed to be empty enough, so she risked making herself visible and looking over the controls and maps. "Hmm," she hummed, glancing at the screen. "These could be the coordinates to the locations of the missing cargo ships."

"Artik, table 2 is waiting for there orders...Artik?" said the head chef, as he looked at the boy, his eyes completely blue, as he was tranced in a flashback.
"Artik...you know this kind of thing can get us de-commissioned!" said a female, with pink hair, as she stood behind him, watching as he picked the lock of a door. "I need to find out...the disappearances are too odd to not be linked with someone from this branch" he said, as he opened the door, his hair color being blond instead of blue. "What..." he said, as he read a top-secret folder, exposing one of the highest government organizations as a fraudulent one that had a long, extensive list of corrupt contributors. "Artik...I feel a prescence...I'll go ahead..." said the female, as she left the room, almost turning invisible. "You should have followed her" said a voice, as Artik looked up, and heard a gunshot. He laid there on the floor, shaking a bit, as he began to die.
"Artik?...Artik!...ARTIK!" said a fellow waitress, as Artik passed out, collapsing to the floor.

Mirra got to him just quick enough to knock him in the back of the neck with a quick swipe of her hand. He was out in an instant, on a slump on the floor. She sighed in relief before starting back out of the room. Making her way to the cargo bay, once she reached it, she waited patiently near a load of boxes, looking around to study her surroundings. Ciar had been right--this place was crawling with Shadow Phoenix agents. That definitely couldn't mean anything good was up. She held back a gasp as she saw none other than Viktor Craven striding past the cargo ship and narrowed her eyes, turning her head to look for Ciar and finding him. Quietly coming up to his side, still invisible, she said in a low voice. "Look over there,"

Recognizing that Mirra was next to him, Ciar continued doing what he was doing, pretending that he had no idea an invisible person was at his side. He looked where Mirra said to, and saw the one and only Viktor Craven. Ciar himself had a good reputation with Viktor, so if he was seen, there was not an issue. As silently as he could speak, while still looking forward and having Mirra hear him, Ciar whispered, "Send a status report back to base. Report code 12-87-09. Extension 55. Sub-order K. Director Kanex will respond. Tell me what code he says as soon as you know it. Go now. I will do my best to see what's in these crates." Ciar walked on and eventually deposited the hovercart with the crates on, and was about to try to open one, when he saw that a couple of agents were staring at him. "What? Just making sure the cargo's not damaged." They both nodded and moved on. One agent walked past him and was headed back to get more crates, and he waved for Ciar to follow, so Ciar did, trying his best not to be conspicuous.

Turning around and pushing the gloved hands into the pockets of his overcoat, Craven gave a melodramatic sigh--and then paused as he noticed something. He strode forward a bit, his eyes on one particular figure. "You," he calmly observed as he recognised the face of the person--what was his name? "Ciar." If he had a last name, Craven would have used that. The Shadow Phoenix officer looked at Ciar with a curling sneer and a suspicious glare in his eyes. "I certainly did not have you sent here, and I got no report that you would be sent here. Who ordered you here?" Craven had worked with Ciar previously, but anyone knew that working with Craven did not make him trust them any more. "Or are you here of your own will?" Craven spoke as if the word was quite irritating. "As I understand it the Shadow Phoenix is allowing their big agents more freedom..."
Even as he spoke Craven scanned the port once more. He did not like this--Ciar's appearance, sudden and unexpected. Not to mention the fact that the Shadow Phoenix was having him unload the cargo in crates. Apparently the Shadow Phoenix organisation's leader was one of those old-fashioned nostalgic sort of person who would rather do everything by hand than to use a nice little thing Craven liked to call technology.

Mirra shook her head clear of such thoughts. They weren't official and she needed to focus on missions such as these. After all, she knew Ciar could handle himself and she had her orders from him to send a status report, so she needed to do that as soon as possible. Ducking behind a secluded area of crates that weren't being moved yet, Mirra made herself visible and called in to base with the code directing her straight to Director Kanex. "Director, you were correct about the suspicious activity. Crates and currently undefined cargo are being moved through the ships and members of the Shadow Phoenix are everywhere. Their reasons are currently unknown. Ciar and I are still working to uncover the situation. Once we do, we will report back into you immediately. Do you have any further orders?" When Mirra was done, she looked around to make sure no one was watching before turning her attention back to checking in.

At that moment however, a Shadow Phoenix officer strode up to him and waited for Craven to turn, not daring to otherwise attract his attention. Craven kept the man waiting a few moments just because he was bored and he enjoyed watching the officer standing there nervously, but at last turned back. "What is it?" he demanded. The officer leaned forward and murmured something to Craven in a low voice. Craven's eyes twitched, and the smirk widened. "Ah," he spoke as if something of mild interest and nothing more had occurred. He nodded to the officer, who turned and walked back, and Craven looked back towards the men loading and unloading the crates. Though he said nothing, and the crates continued to be unloaded, he had accomplished what he was here for. As soon as they were done loading and unloading, as soon as Craven believed it was secure to do so, they would then leave this planet--with some new cargo for the Shadow Phoenix group.

As Ciar unloaded the last crate, he noticed it did not have a seal. He quickly opened the lid a little and shut it, getting a good enough view of what was inside. Hybrid microfusion cells, only used in high-energy weapons. Ciar put the last crate in the Cargo bay then walked to an unoccupied hallway, and activated his active camoflage ability, rendering him invisible.
Ciar turned on his Comm and said, "Mirra, the boxes contain Hybrid Microfusion Cells. Whatever weapon they have here must require a lot of power, which can't be good. I'll investigate further. Give me a heads up if anything goes wrong." Ciar then turned his Comm to silent mode, and turned visible again. Ciar walked around and was headed back to the ship, but then a few shadow phoenix agents stopped him. "Hey, I know you're high rank and all, but when it's time to leave, it's time to leave. Let's go." One of the members said, motioning for Ciar to follow. Not wanting to attract suspicion to himself, Ciar followed the agents, who brought him back to their troop carrier ship. The ship was almost completely full, with only 5 seats left, just enough for the other agents and Ciar. Ciar boarded and strapped himself in, then sent a tracking signal to Mirra, who would hopefully pursue. He also silently sent her the troop carrier number, which was #2319. If Mirra did not respond or follow, Ciar would be headed straight for a major enemy base, and the worst part, he would be alone.
