"Reloading the ammunition can wait!" "Finish prepping them for a turnaround inside of 20 minutes!" "What's this about UNF headquarters being taken over?" "What's going to happen now?" "The command center will be able to tell you more." "We have our hands full with getting everything ready to head out again! ...from communications circuits to personal mobile terminals." "Boosting anti-wiretapping security to level 15!" "Communications have been completely cut off." "There should be at least 1000 personal terminals alone in that building." "We estimate that the enemy committed over 1000 men to occupy the hotel." "I have footage from news agencies." "We can set out again in 15 minutes!" "hold off on that scramble." "sir?" "We're completely cut off from Command HQ." "Impossible!" "You're saying that it's been completely taken over?" "The enemy knows that we've determined the Flag's location. ...the Flag will just be hidden away again." "Do we give recovering the Flag top priority?" "Or liberating headquarters?" "our hands are tied until we learn what the situation is inside." "Uddiyana's capital... ...and is gathering information as well as discussing what response to make." "UNF troops had vanished from the city streets." "All that was left was a city that had gone to pieces with the force that had held it together now gone. ...only information continued to fly back and forth." "Recklessly flapping its broken wings to do so..." "No doubt about it!" "Those are robot weapons that China's been developing!" "I hear the Chinese government is refusing to make any comments." "Hey!" "It's a new message from Ru Pou!" "Isn't that the Flag?" "!" "Ru Pou has the Flag?" "What's going on?" "The significance of the Thanka of Kufura has been expunged. ...and an age of decadence has descended upon this place." "the Flag's been stolen..." "What the hell's gonna happen with the signing ceremony in four days?" "The Flag is the lynchpin that's been holding all the insurgent groups in check." "If they lose that..." "Uddiyana is gonna be plunged into a civil war!" "Is that Ru Pou's objective?" "that DOES sound like something the Gelut sect would do..." "The Geluts issued no claims of responsibility whatsoever regarding the occupation of UNF headquarters." "grey silence. ...only UNF recon helicopters flew aimlessly." "The most pressing problem we have at the moment is the complete cessation of UNF functions across the country that resulted from the occupation of Command HQ." "It goes without saying that the Security Council is doing its utmost... but... liberating Command HQ must take top priority before we can do anything else." "Be my guest." "Okay." "this was a close call for me..." "I'd be a prisoner of the Gelut at headquarters." "It's ironic that the reason I'm safe and sound is simply because I had the dumb luck to be an unwelcome guest here." "Um..." "Sure." "you're an impressive young woman." "willing to come to a battlefield to get her pictures... though." "but don't push your luck." "that Lt. Chris is putting me in an awkward position." "She took Lt. Nikkanen out yesterday and went to Pou Palace without permission." "you see." "but the SDC is the only group that can do anything right now." "that doesn't mean that they can go around breaking regulations." "We just need to wait." "orders to neutralize the Gelut forces will come down from UN headquarters in New York soon enough." "wild cards like them who act rashly on their own authority are what pose the greatest threat." "Everyone in the SDC has something precious to them that they have to protect." "That's why they work so hard." "Captain?" "Of course I do." "I have my family." "what kind of person did you want to become?" "We believe that Ru Pou didn't disclose the Flag's location until the last minute because he was waiting for the Longkus to arrive." "we must consider this operation to be the result of meticulous planning." "the Gelut have probably beefed up their defenses." "the problem... - ...is that it is physically impossible to neutralize all the enemy forces that are occupying the hotel using just our two HAVWCs." "our main objective is to capture and secure the Command and Communications facility in the north wing. ...which will mobilize following the restoration of their command functions." "We know almost nothing about the current situation." "either." "we can't afford to wait. ...Uddiyana will plunge into a large-scale civil war." "We have to do this! ...there had still been no public announcement." "The UN is taking no action at all..." "Same old story." "They won't budge unless they've got orders." "We were all in the dark regarding Pou's real intentions and the situation at the UN." "was running rampant among everyone in town." "but it looks like something happened to derail the roadmap." "Ru Pou is still in hiding." "It's probably in response to the bombing the other day..." "Yes." "We think it's very likely that this terrorist act is retaliation for that." "The Flag..." "Shirasu being called in by the UN..." "The two-legged robot on the disk." "the bipedal robot that showed up last night." "There's a piece that we're missing." "Something else is clearly at work here." "The codeword is "Flag." "We know at least that much." "But what the hell does it mean?" "Hi." "What's up? ...we'll conduct a final check on the operations plan." "switch over to laser communications." "anything I say now will sound cliched." "But good luck to you." "Understood." "lifting off." "Roger." "Captain!" "like I was looking for a lost set of keys or something." "my feet led me to the music store of the girl who was once a Kufura." "Shouldn't have expected it to be open..." "Mr. Akagi!" "The sun will set soon." "Darkness will come upon us again." "At this time of day..." "I sometimes feel like I'm watching at the bottom of the sea." "The bottom of the sea?" "right?" "That's why we still find fossilized seashells up in the mountains." "they would see the shells and believe that in the past there had once been an enormous flood that had engulfed the whole world." "A flood that swallowed up all humanity." "The wrath of heaven called down by Ru Pou." "That is about to be repeated here. ...history could often be found concealed in legend." "The people are frightened." "the goddess of rebirth." "Prayer... flickering glow to light the way ahead." "it's something else!" "Doesn't this seem like the bottom of the sea to you?" "I meant that the air sometimes feels like a liquid to me." "huh?" "Skeiron to Hercus." "Final checkpoint passed." "Begin drop prep." " Roger." " Roger." "Drop." "Flash-smoke." "Disengaging hook." "touchdown." "touchdown." "Position of occupation forces confirmed." "Confirmed!" "Neutralizing." "hurry!" "sir!" "Muzzle flashes from two gun turrets on the veranda of the main building." "Neutralized." "Neutralized." "Scout to Hercus." "Heat source detected on the west side of the main building." "Most likely Longkus!" "Hercus 1." "I'm okay." "no damage." "Movement of one Longku unit confirmed." "Heading for the annex's front entrance." "They have the front entrance blockaded!" "Send us the annex interior data." "Sending data." "I'll enter though the small hall on the east side. ...I'll attack the Longku at the front entrance from the rear." "provide backup." "Roger." "Roger." "We'll hit them with stun grenades first." "Roger." "Lt. Chris..." "Lt. Ichiyanagi... let's go." "ma'am." "Attack!" "It had started!" "It was a sneak attack on the UNF hotel... any thought of danger disappeared from my head." "I'm in." "Now heading for the ballroom." "Hercus 1 calling Skeiron." "Command HQ successfully secured." "Patch us into all units' comm channels." "Follow the regs in the manual." "take action as per instructions." "begin advancing on Subasci hotel immediately." "scramble immediately." "The other Longku has disengaged from the battle line and is retreating." "Two attack helicopters closing in from 12 o'clock!" "direct hit on north side of annex." "They're trying to take out our command capabilities from the outside." "We don't have time to pursue the other Longku." "Move to the north face." "The main building provides cover from the south." "The helicopter can't attack us." "L-T!" "Right arm's operator circuits have been damaged." "don't do it!" "You're no match for that thing in a head-to-head shootout!" "Lt. Ichiyanagi!" "Lt. Ichiyanagi!" "They're UNF attack helicopters!" "L-T!" "Lieutenant!" "A helicopter cavalry unit is headed this way!" "Mission complete." "Will now withdraw." "set down and stand by until we finish docking." "Roger." "their overwhelming firepower liberated the hotel without fuss." "There was no sign there of Gelut guards or those robots when they arrived." "they used the underground tunnels to retreat." "But that wasn't what surprised me." "Halt!" "This area is off limits!" "we're returning to base." "Right!" "Shirasu!" "Akagi-senpai!" "Akagi-senpai!" "just one is enough."
