"The Guardians? I'm guessing their like protectors of something?" Mima replied as she entered the transport as well.




Sometimes when you're driving down a road, a bug hits your windshield. It's ugly and unpleasant, but you just activate the wipers / cleaning fluid and it's gone in a few seconds. It's just part of driving down the road. You don't dwell on it, because that'd be silly. Bugs aren't worth the time.

You just discard their guts and keep on driving.

Crying...
the soft crying of a little girl could be heard in the engine room.
Anankerisa was curled up in a corner, tears flowing down her cheeks.
She held her angel doll close.
She felt trapped.

"That's the mystery." Nero responded.
"They may be called Guardians...but they're not exactly doing a lot of protecting. Though their secrets are well guarded." The soldier sat down and other patrols started to file into the transport.
"We know virtually nothing about them, what they're real motives are, why they exist, how is it they manage to elude us at every turn..." Nero shook his head.

Finally reaching the engine room, Mara heard a girl crying "Where are you little one?" she said with a worried tone

The bioroid started searching faster and found the girl on a corner

"Hey.. its ok, come on.." the bioroid said calmly while sitting close to Anankerisa on the corner

Have you ever crossed the line between sanity and madness? You would be amazed by what lies beyond the fog..

"If all's fair, if you guys start fighting, I ain't joining in." Mima simply replied. "Nor would I rather pick sides."

"Don't worry, for now we'll just say your a civilian. Besides, the living quarters are quite nice on Excalibur. Of course, me being the Head Defense Coordinator gets some special perks, I'll be able to get you through the system and possible get ya a place to stay while...or if...your memories recover."

"Oh you're the defense coordinator?" A female patrol member chimed in. "Ha! So you're the ringleader of those maniacs top-side!" she started to laugh and then turned to Mima. "Ok so let me tell you the story for this...so 'top-side' refers to the entire defense corridors that run through the ship to the manned turret stations. This guy is basically the strategist for the fleet's defenses and thus coordinates the turret gunners. Aside from that, everyone questions everything this guy does...cause it's crazy up there. Actually...what DO you do, Nero?"

"Everything my job description says I do, why?"

"Pffft- hahahaha oh~! No reason at all!"

"One of these days you people are gonna give the wrong impression of me. Yer just jealous cause I am so AWSOME at keeping us safe."
That final statement by Nero caused a sudden outburst by nearly all of the patrols. Most tried to suppress the laughter while other tried to mask it by seeming to cough.

Anankerisa stayed there, eyes transfixed and wide as though she was scared and in a trance. she kept muttering as tears continued to flow.

Mara just did what she felt right to do
The bioroid took the girl on her arms and started soothing her "Its ok little ana.. just relax.." she said while caressing the girl´s hair

("What could have frightened her to the point of getting into a state of trance?") the white haired thought looking at the engine room, there was nothing appearing on her HUD but even technology couldn´t find everything

Mima just looked on with a confused look. "Was it supposed to be a joke or something?"

As a mere whisper Anankerisa continued singing her song in the broken voice of a crying child.

"Free us
Those
Of us
Bound forever
By the accursed fate
of everlasting turning time...
Let this
Galaxy
be set free
from the binds of its eternity..."

"Sorta an inside joke among the crew..." Nero explained.
Then the hatch closed and the transport started to move away from the dock. "Alright, now we'll be at the Delta Division fleet in a few minutes."
The soldier that accompanied Nero was looking at a small display with a furrowed brow. "Strange...I can't open a link to Delta Division...It's like the signal is being jammed."
"Huh? What?" Nero looked at him dumbfounded. "Hold on..." Nero tapped his earpiece. "...oh you have got to be..." He then turned a dial on another device on his belt that was slightly larger than the digital bag. Suddenly, a holographic computer display projected itself in front of him. "Let's find out what's going on..." His hands rapidly started typing various strings of code. Communicator diagnostics, signal scanners, Nero went through the process with practiced hands. "...Yep...the signal is being jammed, and the jammer is near the fleet. Looks like the NGO finally caught up."
"Great, we're in a transport with no escort flying into a fire fight...I shouldn't have woke up today." The soldier grumbled.

"I think I agree." Mima grumbled.

Mara just kept soothing the little one while the ship went through space ("Looks like we will go to Celestora system then") she thought while caressing the girl´s hair

"You will like Celestora, it is a peaceful part of the galaxy and most of the planets in it have good weather, probably a warm summer to enjoy a beach or a calm winter to relax on the white coated forests" the bioroid said and had an idea that may distract the girl from what frightened her.

Moving carefully her left arm, the white haired´s arm brace showed a small holographic screen, it started showing pictures of the Celestora system´s planets, some populated and others mostly farm like, and so the images kept on going about diferent sceneries
