The inspection had ended. Everyone passed, though some had a brief scolding for the condition of their fighters. Joe turned to Aion. "Well, not a bad start for today, so what did you have in mind, hm?"
Aion chuckled lightly. "To be honest, there wasn't anything in particular. How about you?"
Joe was about to answer when he caught sight of a girl with short black hair walking into the hangars. "...I think my plans just changed mate..."
"What are you-?" Aion turned and saw the girl as well. "Oh." A wry smile crept across his face. "Heh, Joe you never change. Let's see what she's here for, hm?"
"Woah, matey, we can't just walk up to-"
"Sure we can." And with that Aion dragged Joe into walking with him over to the girl that caught Joe's eyes. She was looking about and hadn't noticed them until Aion spoke again. "Hey, thought we'd be the welcoming committee. Need help with something?"
"Ah-!" The girl jumped slightly. "Oh! Uhm...yes! I was sent to find a pilot by the name of...Aion."
"Of course...you always get the spotlight, mate!" Joe playfully punched Aion's arm.
"Hardly." Aion grinned. "So what ya need me for?"
"Oh- well... my commanding officer has a messege for you, and wanted me to deliver it." The girl handed Aion a notepad computer.
"Ah...so who's your CO? And we didn't catch your name-?"
"Oh! Right, my name is Kiara, and my commanding officer is Commander Sullivan of the Delta Division."
"Delta Division...so they finally decided to come knockin on my door..." Aion glanced through the message and then looked to Joe.
"Well mate, this is what you were waiting for."
"I know..." Aion then took a step towards the center of the hangar where all of the Hunter's Guild was, keeping busy with usual daily activities. He then gave a loud whistle and everyone turned their attention to him. "Well peeps, I know a lot of you been waiting for the chance to join Delta Division...well...the chance just walked in the door." He looked about as his fellow pilots shifted and whispered. "Hunters! Are you ready to take to the skies!?" The resounding cheer answered him. Aion then turned back to Kiara. "Hope you don't mind, but I'm bringing a few friends."

"Heh...I go and liberate it and in the end, nothing is left." He then started to laugh as though it were some hilarious joke. "And now...Now only vultures come here." He then stepped forward and looked the woman over a little closer. "...So...what are you?"

Planet: DuonSpace Port - Tower of Aquarion AreaNero adjusted his dark blue bandana on his head. "Honestly, is there anything to do around here?" He looked at the Delta Division infantry soldier that traveled with him. "
Honestly. Why are we even here?" He looked to the tower. "Cause as MUCH as I LOVE to look at ancient towers, I would rather be back in the map room.
There's nothing worth while here and yet you insisted on bringing me along."
"I swear, I thought most of the time you don't talk. Now I wonder, do you ever shut up?" The soldier rolled his eyes. "We're here by order of Lieutenant Navarre, Just doing some scouting of the area. And you, as our Tactician, are supposed to be taking notes, not complain."
"Oh well EXCUUUUUUSE ME princess!" Nero grimaced. "This is a waste of time, we don't need to do this..."
