[i][color=ec008c]"Unit-T and pilot Tina, Utada and Bonesword, you have been selected to lead the Machina's effort in the next main battle. All of you as well as any other units that desire to join the skirmish, report to the nearest dispatch bay. You'll be briefed on the objectives and conditions on route to the battlefield in order to preserve crucial intelligence,"[/color][/i]

Tina was sitting on her bed quietly looking at her phone when the announcement blared over the comms. Her only reaction was a simple pause as she looks up at the intercoms speaker for a brief second before putting her device away and exits the door. She didn't need any additional persuasion from Dr. Karizawa or even from Tobayashi to get her going. Once out the door, she exits her room and skips down the hallway to the briefing room. However, she won't be going alone as when turning around the next corner, she bumps into someone by accident as she falls flat on her butt. Tina looks up innocently to see the gentle Tobayashi looking down on her with a surprised look.

[color=magenta][b]"Awww, sorry Tina."[/b][/color] she apologizes gently as she helps the girl get up, [color=magenta][b]"You should be careful running around these tight corridors like that. I take it you've heard the message, right?"[/b][/color]

Tina nods lightly as she looks into her eyes.

[color=magenta][b]"Right..."[/b][/color] the scientist replies to herself quietly as she fiddles with her pen with one hand before talking to Tina again, [color=magenta][b]"Ehm, come then. Follow me to the briefing room. I would hate to loose you in such a large and complicated building like this one."[/b][/color]

The pilot's cheeks puffed up slightly in disappointment that she can't go by herself... but then again Tobayashi does have a point in getting lost. After all, both she and Tina know very little about this place anyways. Without anymore hesitations, she follows the scientist to the briefing room.

Unit-T stands on the edge of a short cliff overseeing the crystal-clear water just a few meters below. The mission in what to achieve was clear. Find the Staff of Okeanos and bring it to Lenuria's Throne Room in order to achieve victory, all while doing combat with the undersea monstrosities that lurk beneath the ruins. The mech has recently undergone some modification to her arsenal, alongside the addition of undersea modifications such as retractable fins and special fuel canisters to propel it underwater. Karizawa believes that this will be the perfect opportunity to test out its underwater capabilities. 

Back at Hyperion, both Dr. Karizawa and Tobayashi oversee her deployment as Unit-T prepares to dive. 

[color=magenta][b]"Just test out the new equipment and abilities and we will see how they react."[/b][/color] the scientist explains to Tina from her comms, [color=magenta][b]"Everything should be fine, but if there are any malfunctions with the mech, you must return to the cavern surface immediately. We will have a small repair team access the damage and attempt to fix the problems you might be having... if you are able to return that is. But whatever you do, don't leave the battlefield unless there's an official call to retreat. We don't want Eos knocking down on our doorstep again like last time... understood?"[/b][/color]

[color=f49ac2][b]"Yes, Tobayashi."[/b][/color] Tina replies bluntly as she grabs her hands on the handlebars. 

With that, it seems like she's ready to go. Dr. Karizawa slowly looks at Tobayashi and nods.

[color=magenta][b]"Unit-T."[/b][/color] she announces loudly on the speaker, [color=magenta][b]"You are clear to dive."[/b][/color]

With that, Unit-T's fin flaps open on her back, arms, legs and tail and the mech dives into the water below with a splash. Once in the water, the mech's boosters burst to life as it pushes the mech deeper into the depths of the unknown...

Shortly after the little chat at the Library, Lucifus was summoned by Zeruel to partake in the next battle.

[b][color=fff79a]"An underwater battle?"[/color][/b] he thinks to himself as he emerges in Heaven's Undersea Cavern, [b][color=fff79a]"Hmm, this ought to be interesting."[/color][/b]

While he has rarely fought in underwater environments before, let alone being equipped for it, he has a small passion for swimming during his free time. Not only does it provide a healthy dose of physical cardio and exercise, but it also helps him prepare for any of these circumstances. He already has mastered land and air combat, so why not master submarine combat to achieve his experience. His master also recognizes this and thus he has no quarrels with it.

As the spell renders the angel capable of breathing underwater, Lucifus feels ready to descend into the depths. After doing a quick stretching routine and seeing Cydone dive first, the Archangel takes one deep breath of air, as a force of habit, and dives in as well. His wings begin to be rendered smooth and waterproof as the sunlight reformats his wings for a more aquatic lifestyle. They've basically have now turned into flippers. With that, he continues to dive deeper into Lenuria's depths.
