Ch 5 Prologue "Those Upgrades...They Look Like Dragonar! AWESOME!"

As a precaution for this chapter completly strip John and Yohko's Vereins completly of all their equipment. Sometimes and just sometimes little bits of their equipment will dissapear for what's about to happen in the prologue for this chapter. On another note the Task Force had an epiphany and decided Hotariko was bestest for the Demitri whilst Bruno suddenly decided he hates Vereins and swapped into the Zaku.

Bruno would benefit more from the dual range weapon hardpoints and would be able to properly manage a Beam Shooter with a post movement Machinegun as back up and Hotariko would be better throwing grenades everywhere as a ranged attack.

I've also found out what it is that the grunt Vereins have been reminding me of for so long.

Anyway back to what's really going on!

If Emma gave us the photo at the end of chapter 4 then the prologue will begin with an additional opening scene. It's a little short but it involves Anderson strengthening his resolve to look out for the rest of the Task Force and to not let SERIKA take over again (I was only helping).

Anderson recieves a maintenence manifest on material expendeture and supplies, someone's got to keep track of the books. Oddly though in the recent few days two units have been using almost three times as much equipment and resources than every other unit.

Char's seemed to have won the hearts and minds of a few of our pilots after our battle with him at Side 7. Time for Anderson to sort this mess out. There's some additional lines here if you got the Verein Geves upgrade as well.

On reaching the bridge and finding the two pilots in question and Natalie everything becomes crystal clear. With all the equipment and materials we've gathered Natalie can finally step up her production plans with two of the Verein prototype units and take them to the next level. Yohko and John are the happy benifcators.

*Fist Pump* Yohko's and John's theme tune need to change over to Yume Iro Chaser. At this time we're also prompted to equip the Verein First Types. After refitting the V-Ones Idris picks up a communication from the G.A.C and we're given a little more detail on what we've been asked to do.

There's a Spacial Disturbance Area around Langrange Point 4 that is really screwing the pooch for the G.A.C and the TTF are their only real option for clearing it up. Yohko voices her concerns that this is all just going towards helping the G.A.C's profiteering and that there's no one directly benefitting from a heavily armed task force coming over the hills like white knights of love and hope. We're supposed to be finding the Imaginary Element guys for the G.A.C not being their errand boys/girls.

Our liason with the G.A.C turns out to be another old friend back from chapter one, the sexy and somewhat flirty Vinesia Brunhilde, an avid helper of those who directly and indirectly have suffered from the BETA invasion.

At this point Natalie will mention a new frame for the Zero. If your relationship with her is pretty good then she'll have been able to get together all the nesicary materials and made some personal sacrifcies to get the new frame operational for the mission to come. She'll also of had the understanding and experience needed to know what Anderson exactly needs, the utterly awesome Sidus frame.

If the relationship hasn't yet proceeded beyond labcoat and labrat then Natalie will only mention the new frame but hasn't got together the equipment or resources needed to get it operational.

With an hour to go until a full breifing of the situation at Langrange 4 there isn't enough time to put the new V-Ones thought a complete test so Yohko and John will be required to give them a few simulator rounds for quick tuning.

It's a few moments before the video meeting and our pilots arrive just on time, though John's a little more smarmy and arrogant about getting used to the new V-Ones better than Yohko. Ass.

If Anderson's relationship with Emma is really good then he'll take this moment to ask Natalie a little more about the trap she and Ikarane placed in his Zero for SERIKA.

When contact is established with Vinesia she admits that the situation out there's going to be pretty harsh on the Task Force. Communications are jammed up pretty badly out there and several tons of shipping have already mysteriously vanished to anyone capitalizing on the SDA to prey on the G.A.C shipping routes. This could be man made.

Anything going out there will have trouble communicating even to the unit next to it which could hamper any sort of plan at all. There's nothing to do but to go face first, kicking and screaming into a trap.

If you've ignored Emma and Jean entirely in the relationship aspect we get an extra scene where Vinesia beings blatantly flirting like mad with Anderson, fortunatly our Albino Maido is on hand to draw her beloved Master's attention back onto her by being a klutz.

Eitherway Jean will yap off without thinking about what she's saying provoking Emma to take her outside the room for a quick talking to. As long as you got the relationship between Anderson and Jean a little off the ground then she'll come barging back in after the meeting apologising and HNGGGGHing Anderson to oblivion. Keeruu will also datass.jpg

With the meeting done and dusted Anderson will have Idris send off a message to Stana wherever that girl is. If pirates are involved in this there's a good chance Stana would want in as well. The Bros of the team will also help point out that if the group's unable to communicate during the battle then combat prowess and morale might not be high for this one.

On entering the prospective combat area the entire ship is on high alert, waiting for the slightest hint of electroinc equipment failure or communication scrambling.

If the Jean relationship is at it's highest you can get it up until now she'll unleash the most HNNNNGHest exchange of words with Anderson.

The communication lines will start going dead as the Tessaract picks up what looks to be a large man made structure floating through space. If this really is the work of pirates they're one well organized lot.

With the dead lines of communication as the signal the Task Force will launch but if you got the HNNNNGH exchange between Jean and Anderson a few seconds ago then Jean'll reveal she can still communicate via touching between suits.
