[center][h3][color=ed1c24]Space outside Annona Colony Docks[/color][/h3][/center][hr]

Ayame watched in dismay as the Machine detonated inside the colony and could only watch as the mayhem that they should have stopped happened in front of then

[color=crimson]"There's not much else we can do here, and we can't exactly scoop up people without EVA suits of our own. Best we head back before we get in too much more trouble."[/color] Victor said to Ayame through their personal comms, before he spun his own Tommy around and began flying back towards the main dock where the Nyx, and the rest of the royal procession sat.

Ayame sighed in defeat as she knew Victor was right there was nothing they could do as she followed behind him. She thought about what he said [color=crimson]"A bit messier than I would've liked. We're not losing our edge are we?"[/color] 

How long ago was it when they last had combat? A few months? A few years? Its been about four,five years since the Siege and the later mop up of pirates, and its not everyday you go up against an ancient aerospace fighter... Something to think about when she has the time.

Her thoughts brought her back inside the colony following behind Victor Parking their mobile suits inside the Hanger of ther Nyx, getting out of the machine she hailed down one of her squad-mates [color=pink]"How bad is it out there?"[/color] Ayame asked for an update,

"Pretty bad ma'am, the population is scared and their blaming the usual suspects, Pirates and the....Venusian's Ma'am." Collins responded very cautiously "It's looking like today's events seem to be canceled", as much as Ayame wanted to be ecstatic that she doesn't have to stand in formation for hours on end this was not something to be celebrating as part of the colony just got destroyed.

[color=pink]"Alright, get the squad to ready status for if things get worse, the colony is hurt and we will be required for her defense. Get the others and meet back here Collins, we are gonna have to prepare for a possible second attack"[/color] Ayame ordered the pilot who saluted and ran off as she went over to her machine. 

[color=pink]'Maybe we should have had out machines in the Parade, maybe we would have taken it out before it even got to the colony wall. The normal Tommy has nothing when it comes to speed against those fighters'[/color]
