With the timely appearance of Kusanagi, Akane took the chance to free herself from the little pink fluff's room. Working for her was going to be a pain in the tail she thought mournfully. Her next objective was to visit poor Yeshua, who was being sorely mistreated. Would that she could provide her some succor, but she would take no action that would draw suspicion. Even if she was ordered to be executed. 

She swiftly and immediately made her way through the base to the massive room where Yeshua was being held. Her expression and manner was entirely the GMG-obsessed researcher she had made herself out to be, as she questioned every soldier and scientist that crossed her path, including Utena. She pointedly ignored Yeshua, herself, and the fact that she could understand what the great bird-like girl was saying. 

The bindings and the cage that held the GMG were actually her designs, though the electrification was a later addition by Yashiro. It made her proud to see that they worked, however, she had her doubts if they could contain a kaiju as powerful as the Dragon Queen. She could clearly see they would have to improve on their design to have any hope against her. Maybe it could do with an extra knot or two, maybe another strap between--

The klaxon of an alarm and a loud voice jolted her from her daydreams:

[quote]All MFF personel are to prepare for departure. Codename Goomie has been located on a remote island to the western seas with multiple human life signs registered. I repeat, all MFF personel are to prepare for departure. Codename Goomie has been located on a remote island to the western seas with multiple human life signs registered.[/quote]

[color=red]"Ah-ha, so that little net finally landed the big fish!"[/color] She laughed over the alarm. She turned to a group of soldiers who had frozen up. [color=red]"Hey, hey, get your rears in gear, we've got another GMG to catch!"[/color] Thus galvanized, they practically tripped over themselves as they scurried off. Before she left to follow them, Akane stopped in front of Yeshua and looked the GMG in the eyes. She smiled in a very uncomforting way and said quietly, her voice somehow carrying enough to reach her bound and gagged audience's ears. [color=red]"Now, be a good girl, and I'll be take my time with you later. [i]In private.[/i]"[/color]

Then she left.

[hr]

She was, once again, called upon to deploy on the mission to siege Goomie's base. This time, as a field agent, though her qualification for command and knowledge of GMGs were invaluable, her similarly impressive skills at stealth and infiltration were more valuable here. She was tasked with leading and coordinating several teams of Agents to rescue the humans reportedly imprisoned on Goomie's island, while she was engaged with the MFF's main forces. Of particular note, once she received the rosters, under her command were Utena and the recently promoted Akari. [red][i]Our paths keep crossing, and I'm not one to believe in coincidence.[/i][/color] She thought.

The misson was quickly underway, and there they were, creeping into [b]The Cavern[/b]. She lead the way, completely invisible, checking for traps or anything that might endanger pesky human intruders. There were none, which fit with Goomie's intelligence profile, but one could never be too cautious. Aside from quiet chatter among the troops, and the occasional [i]plop[/i] of slime, it was eerily quiet.

Then, they came to the first cage. 

"Um... hi? This is awkward uh, do you guys need something?"

At the question, directed at the visible MFF. Akane popped into existence. [color=red]"We are the Monster Federation Force. And we are here to rescue you. From your...rather luxurious prison."[/color] She said dryly, taking in the creature comforts. A quick indication from her, and two of the soldiers started looking for a way to open the cage.

This was definitely unexpected. It seemed that Goomie's reasons for kidnapping wasn't for sustenance or cruelty at all. The more Akane looked, the more she was strikingly reminded of a dollhouse. And, looking past this cage, there were more--many more. There were rows of cages set up in haphazard fashion, in the nearest could be seen human-like silhouettes and more comforts, beds, tables, furniture.

However, there would be time to ponder and re-asses the GMG's weird hobbies later. For now, their mission was to rescue and evacuate the prisoners. Whether they wanted to or not. More soldiers scattered to other cages and attempted to open them.

After a moment's pause, Akane once again addressed the woman who spoke in a gentler voice. [color=red]"My name is Agent Akane Yurei, and I command these troops. Tell us how you came to be here and what's transpired since. Quickly, please, we don't have much time."[/color]
