Paul cringed inwardly as he wondered if this guy really was this friendly with a lieutenant from a foreign military force? Well it could be much worse...he could be a pirate. Pirates were a certain type of scum Paul had no interest in dealing with. Dirty cockroaches whom are only fit to line prison gates and keep the guards paid. Who would mooch off some guy's hard earned money or a business's profits? Only crooks and liars. He remembered when he and....Kyleson....no that was irrelevant right now and it never was something he should think about. Of course he'd go down that line of thinking however scum and Kyleson were one in the same. "You know Mr. Gabriel I could still be a terrible person. I could betray you in a moment's notice. I think the same with all these new comers including yourself. I'm telling you this out of confidence that you are getting to comfortable being around this crew of mine. It's barely been a half a week and we'd almost shot you in the face when we met." Paul said as he landed first and pulled his beam rifle and shield onto their holding places on his suit before pulling out his beam saber for use in close quarters. "But I'll tell you on thing...If that's what Cyber Newtypes are then they sound an awful lot like Boosted Men. What horrible men and women would cooperate to make such beings a reality must enjoy being a part of the insane genius horror show. But we can't be certain about anything about these new people." Paul commented, ignoring the comment about being a young newtype like guy knew who he was really, as he turned his speakers on to respond to Rowan whom he was half listening to, "Alright well if that's the case then hopefully you'll love it here. I don't like being back stabbed Mr. Rowan. If this is some sort of elaborate plan then whatever crew you were a part of is going to burn in flames before I die." Paul said plainly and coldly as if it were he was threatening to slap a fly for landing on his wall. "You have a strange sense of belonging buddy." Grant said as he backed off from the group and turned around. "Well Lieutenant sir I'm moving back to patrol duty. Nobody is going to get near the ship while I'm on watch I promise." Grant commented as he backed off. "Oh and new guy....don't let the Lieutenant Black Star get to you mentally. We're not all stone cold killers....he's just a special type of leader.." Grant said offhandedly at which Paul told him to shut it and he complied. Paul told Rowan to exit the machine at a specific holding area and when Rowan complied with him Paul turned back to the area he had just left not to long ago and put the Raigo's phase shift armor down turning it back from it's original color. When Rowan exited his suit he was met by a contingent of soldiers with assault rifles not aimed at him but held at ready all the same, the man at the head of the group was SIGMA Leader, "Sir you will be coming with us. I beg your pardon but these soldiers were personally requested by the captain himself. Safety first after all. Not that we trust some new guy either but we've gotten some extra crew lately so we're being a bit more lenient when it comes to taking people on a top secret military craft." SIGMA Leader said as Rowan was told to follow them. Along the way they passed by Graham, whom had left his flag, who watched the man with a serious stare as if trying to grade the guy off his first appearance. Paul walked over to the small deck that connected the catwalks to the main part of the ship and sat down heavily in a chair, "Oh this is going to be-" Paul said as he watched SIGMA Leader do his job when suddenly his personal comlink in his ear rang and he put his hand to his ear and pressed down on the button, "Sir?" Paul asked knowing it was already Captain Jason. "Paul first off may I remind you that I can hear you through your speakers? Try to act more civil with these people they don't need to be coddled but being polite is nice." Jason told him over the link. Paul was embarrassed over the admonishment but he confirmed it, "But sir if Gabriel is right about this cyber-newtype deal that means-" Paul started before Jason chuckled, "I already know about this Puru informed me herself when I asked her about her piloting skills. She said I reminded her a bit of a certain Captain Bright somehow. Right Puru?" Jason asked her and then of course came the voice of Puru confirming it over the com and Paul heard the sound of walking. "I'm on my way to the meeting room now by the way....Also might I remind you that you have that special girl of yours back home?" Jason said as Paul tightened his grip on the chair he was sitting on, "Don't bring her into this. She knows I may not be the most kind person in the world but I do what I need to do. I do what I do to keep people safe on Earth. For not a pure world, but a free one." Paul said offhandedly and aloud as Jason chuckled, "And how would Miss Lyons react once she hears you talk like you do? Threatening people...acting colder than a rock in the middle of the ocean...and senselessly pushing away strangers who are trying to be kind to you? I'm not threatening you Paul...Just offering advice take it as you will. She won't hear about this from me I promise you that. I want to see you retire from this life eventually....I never will have the opportunity to do so myself and of all the people I know you're a special case." Jason asked Paul as he suddenly felt a pit form in his chest like a void, "I'd prefer not to find out sir...I'll concede you this point and be a bit nicer. But don't expect me to keep it up around new guys that constantly come around. And I appreciate that promise sir. After all...I don't have that many people close to me anymore...and I don't need to lose another." Paul said silently as he pulled his hand away and sighed only to look up and find an unfamiliar face staring at him, Seeing this almost made the Lieutenant fall over off his chair. "Hm some heavy weight you have there Lieutenant. Don't try to hide it I didn't hear your conversation but I did see your gestures." Graham said as he looked at Paul whom pulled away from where he was sitting and Graham rested his elbow on and leaned on the table. "Look I'm not out to give you advice you can only find your own but I'd like to make one thing clear...I'm going to be watching you fight. Because my goal is to fight gundam pilots like you and become stronger." Graham said as Paul looked at him with uncertainty, "Did you just declare me your rival Conscript Aker?" Paul asked him with disbelief as Graham shook his head, "No...yes....maybe we'll find out eventually. Whatever you're made of I want a part of. Just like Gabriel and just like Donna." Graham commented to Paul as Paul shook his head, "I don't intend to make a rivals...the last one I had...." Paul cut himself off and got up and walked off. Graham's eyes followed him then came upon Gabriel not to far away, "Hey Gundam! Great job carrying that weapon. Must've been a hard challenge for someone like you." Graham said taking a jab at Gabriel.
