A.S.122, Mars, Deimos

"Hey... hey... hey!" A woman's voice rang out loud in your ear, making you jump in place.

"A-ah!" You fell on your chair with a loud thud, as the woman beside you began to chuckle.

"*chuckles* Damn, I thought you couldn't come to your senses for a sec." The woman said it with a sly smile.

You got a better look at her as you slowly stood up. Her hair was orange, short and swept to the side, as her eyes were a shade of green. She was dressed in a black tank top, dressed in cargo pants that reached her waist.

"Carys... Don't scare me like that..." You spoke in a soft, awkward manner.

"What? You were zoning out, so how could I not? C'mon, we've got work to do, kid. I'll wait outside." She said this as she was leaving your room.

You sighed and prepared. When you got out, you noticed Carys leaning against a railing, playing with her phone. You tapped on her shoulder to get her attention, but she continued to look at her phone.

"Hold on... All right, kid, let's go."

She walked right past you as you followed close behind, looking around the base you'd grown accustomed to after years of being here. It looked exactly the same as it did back then-just your average mobile suit factory. You worked here as a Mobile Suit tester here, testing various types of mobile suits. It didn't matter if it was the newest or most advanced technology; as long as it worked properly for each intended use, it was good enough.

"What do they want now...? Are there any new mobile suits that need to be tested?"

"Hmm... nah, no new ones."

"And why did you come to me again?"

"To tell you what you're about to do in the next few months."

"And that is...?"

"You're leaving for school." She said it without warning, making you slightly jump in place

"What... Wait what?!"

"That's right kid, you're going to Asticassia." she said outright

"Why... exactly?"

"So you really haven't heard, do you?" She raised one of her brows in a teasing manner.

"About what?"

"There are two Gundams in that school, kid, and they want you to inspect them and compare their technologies to our Gundams."

"Really?" You asked hesitantly

"Yeah, our superiors have already enrolled you in the Mobile Pilot program. You'll be fine. Just make sure to keep your wits and stay focused. And remember, kid, don't be too suspicious, aight?" She said with a wink.

You briefly thought about visiting Asticassia... It seemed like an absurd idea. Although it's right in the middle of the semester, are you still allowed to enter? However, you didn't really give the choice much thought. What you're going to do while attending that school is what counts.

"Okay... I understand."

"Good!"

"What mobile suit should I use, though? I can't just walk in with a Gundam; they might confiscate or even destroy it."

"Or, they might be stupid enough to not know that it's a Gundam! Easy peasy"

"W-wait... Carys, are you sure about that? Using... Unicorn?"

"Sure! I mean... why the hell not even?"

"So You're telling me that I'll be piloting a Gundam at a school academy that is backed by a group that considers Gundams illegal?"

"Yup!"

"Do you even have permission from the higher ups?"

"Nope!"

"Ugh... You're hopeless sometimes, you know that?"

"*chuckles* Whatever you say kid." she turned to face you as she's ruffling your hair.

"What now? Are we just going for a walk together, or are we going to do something else?

"Yeah... i mean... that's all i wanted to do today, since we ain't got no new suits to test. Why not spend some time together a lil bit before you go to school?"

You look at her with a soft smile on your face and nod. "I understand."

"Heh, Don't worry too much about me. I'll be fine! What you should worry about is your first impression in school!"

You rubbed the back of your head and chuckled in embarrassment while Carys let out a sigh.

"You grow up so fast y'know? I still remember the time when you were just a rookie here, You were so Tiny!"

You were flustered by the words that she spoke, you retaliated by playfully punching her arm.

"Hmm... Yeah... It sure does."

"Let's go back and pack up for tomorrow, How bout it?"

"Sure, beats walking around the factory for no reason."

Carys chuckled as she gestured for you to go back to your room. Back in the room, you and Carys packed your stuff for school while also trying on the school uniform. You chose to open the zip rather than close it because it was a little tight in the middle. Carys then commented on how cute you looked in the uniform, and you couldn't help but blush. As you finished packing, she told you that she was going to check on her mobile suit. You accepted it as you went to your bed to rest.

--Tomorrow--

You and Carys are now on the launch pad of the base, waiting for you to be ready. The anticipation was evident as you went through the final checks of your belongings one last time. You couldn't help but feel a mix of excitement and nervousness as you prepared to embark on your new journey, but before you left, Carys hugged you and said her goodbyes.

You hopped into your mobile suit and checked its systems. After all the systems were clear, it was time for you to launch. Carys gave you a thumbs up before the light went blue as you and the Unicorn were launched out of the base. While in space, you looked back at Mars, looking at it one last time before moving onto Asticassia...
