[b][i]The Ship[/i][/b]

Pablo looked downwards, inwardly sad for Ein. In response to Andre's words, Pablo nodded and said, "I can understand."

[i]The power of Truth, the Primordial Forces, they warned me about being too touchy-feely towards Ein.[/i] Pablo had known this, that he will be - that he [i]was[/i] - tempted to try and 'fix' Ein and make him into a 'normal' person. And he felt that those impulses will have to be met with caution. Same for the overwhelming desire to be with the intensely cute, intensely sad, prettyboy. As Eliza led them into the ship and their living quarters, Pablo tried to ease himself into new habits and responses, and said habits and responses were - Don't hurt Ein.

In the ship, Eliza then continued, "I and Pablo have seperate rooms next to yours and Ein's joint quarters, Mr. Dias. Each room has a bed, a sub-room for the toilet, and a small laptop with internet - Albeit internet continualy monitored and restricted by High Command. Oh, and a fridge for snacks and cold water - Alchohol will be allowed but kept out of public view once the Operation's deployment begins."

It was then that Pablo received a call from his superiors in the Military Police. Looking at Eliza, Ein and Andre, the young man then said, "We're to meet Ein's new mentor, Sumizome no Shion. He's in the Cafeteria, at a corner table."

[hr]

Sumizome no Shion had been ordered to await the coming of his new apprentice at the corner of the cafeteria, and also to use his Noble Arm to put up a 'cone of silence' using his wind powers. He had been given an encrypted note containing his mission: To expose a group of CIA Agents who were using the fact that most of the expedition was American to hide among the troops. Normally, this would be allowed, if not for the fact that said CIA Agents were bringing in illegal torture equipment abroad ship. Sumizome was to be overall leader of this mission, tasked with briefing Pablo, Ein, Eliza and Andre with its objectives although Pablo probably already knew. Not just that, but he was also given full discretion on [i]how[/i] to accomplish said mission as long as he didn't cause a diplomatic incident.

Ishaq, Axel, Robert and Callie were to be given their orders: They were to support the upcoming landing in Latakia, Syria, to the best of their ability, and make sure that collateral damage was kept to a minimum. Their ship, which was the same ship Pablo and the others were in, was already moving towards the target, and the four Noble Arms users were tasked with 1.) Finding and disarming any naval mines or other obstructions in the way, and 2.) Support a group of Elite Marines as they make the initial landing at Latakia's docks, and 3.) Splitting up, with Callie creating a portal to transport her, Robert, and a group of SAS troopers behind enemy lines to cause havoc.
