7:00 am
She stops in front of one of the doors that give barracks for the pilots, looks for someone, the only person who is inside because she made sure to have this moment alone with him.
"Good morning Cesar" said the mystery woman.
"You
better get ready immediately, soon they will make a call for your team.
We will need you there" She added as she closed the door she just used.
She was talking to the only other person in the room.
"Stella!!" answered the man.
He was
someone average in height, but it was the only thing that could be
distinguished from him, after all, he was completely covered in gear all
over the place. An aviator suit, gloves on his hands, and a helmet with
a visor, if that wasn't enough, he also wore a balaclava that covered
his mouth.
¨What are you doing here!? Did someone follow you?¨ he
said worriedly because only military personnel is supposed to be on the
ship.
"No" she answered."I have already made the necessary arrangements for this little reunion".
"So what is the situation this time?" he said mildly relieved."It must be very important for an angel to personally tell me the details?", and he was correct because angels are not people who should see the living. "Did they finally make sure to find it?"
"How did you know that I was an angel?" asked the girl in white, but without showing the slightest spark of emotion.
The man began to list all the reasons for his conclusion.
"The staging was closed from the inside."
"That you have casual wear all in white."
"That you know that soon they will call me."
"That an unknown woman appeared after 1 month at sea on an aircraft carrier, one of the safest places in the world is strange"
" Algo we have known each other for a time now"
"I can keep giving arguments about it"
"As you were informed at the beginning of
this operation we have confirmed the location of the Codex" said the
girl ignoring him.
"The problem is that now is in the custody of the researchers of the I.S.C."
"They check their data quite often so that we could not infiltrate a traditional agent to get it back to recover it."
"We have worked hard to bring the conflict between the Alliance and the Empire to the north to create what may be our best chance to win it back."
" The Mission approval was done 5 minutes ago."
"The I.S.C had it all this time!?" he said surprised at the information, and how not to be. Having worked in the army he knew very well who they were. They were a multinational company hired by the Alliance, They were in charge of the research and development of new weapons, pharmaceuticals, computer equipment. If it had to do with technology and is brand new it most likely came from them. They are so good at their job that they even got the United States Army to hire them over their favorite Lockheed Martin. So the new teams of the American division of the Alliance out of them. So it was dangerous for them to have something like that."Where did they find it?"
"At the moment we do not know" with her normal quiet face, the girl replied
"Unfortunately we have noticed that it is not the only thing they have found from the Seventh operation."
"We think they got some other artifacts from such dark times."
"We don't know exactly what they have."
"Everything is in one type of large capsule inside their laboratories."
"The
good news is that at the moment they have no idea what have in their
hands, but that's why we have to get it back right now".
"We only
have one chance." her face changed with this sentence, it was of fury,
but of the man in front of her, it was of the situation.
"Several of
our infiltrated agents in the central command have been discovered, we
have managed to get them out safely by pretending they were rescued by
the Empire. It goes without saying that right now they are investigating
the contacts, so we can not do more things that attract attention."
After a short pause to regain her usual calm, she stressed the following.
"It is expected that it can cause complications so you will have to adapt to the situation."
"Your
duty will be to take the Codex and protect it at all costs". That's
right, the next problem they would go through would be to retrieve this
item. It was a crystal, one the size of a hand, it was bluish in color.
But despite his harmless appearance, has not stopped causing problems
for the angels in charge of the security section. Because despite what
most people would believe, this crystal was capable of fulfilling wishes
and as if this weren't enough of a problem, it also required a HUGE PAYMENT IN ADVANCE
to be able to use it. One that some people would be more than willing
to sacrifice to access such power, a real headache for the angels
without a doubt.
"The extraction details are being discussed right now".
"We will give you more information later than we have decided".
"The Celestial Security Section with a totally improvised and unfinished plan".
"How low have they fallen" Cesar mocked.
"I think this speaks a lot about the pressure to recover it to perform like this without good preparation".
"But we just don't have any real options, this is the best due to chaos there will be from combat" she explained.
"What about some defense squad?" he asked.
"Their success rate is almost 95% when they show up".
"The risk of the general public discovering us is already quite high" she complained.
"Also they specialize in securing the assigned territory".
"A mission with so little preparation is better to have people who have been proven to be good in desperate situations as often as you ".
"Also you will not be the only one in this, there will be several who will try to help you with what they can".
"But don't expect anything too direct".
"What do I do with my assigned tasks as a pilot?"A doubt arose from him.
"How do I retrieve the code that is probably in the middle of the war zone when I'm only supposed to drive a helicopter?".
"Today you will be assigned to a transport helicopter" the girl began to explain.
"You
should be able to fake a mechanical failure, we even have other
infiltrated angels prepared to help you give "Realism" to the situation,
right now they are damaging your helicopter so that it has that
problem. Then they will give you support when you fall on the
battlefield to avoid further complications with hostile soldiers, they
will be the same ones that will inform you about the extraction."
"After you meet them you will act as a sniper thanks to your skill until it is time to act."
But then, reflecting a bit, Cesar thinks
who the other infiltrated angels could be because they were doing their
job very well because not even the one who knew of their existence and
ways of acting had discovered them. But thinking a bit about his
companions a name came to mind.
"Is Captain Cedric with us?" he asked trying to guess some possible connection.
"Negative"
"He's just an ordinary
alliance officer, so you must deal with him when the time comes"a direct
answer from the unflappable girl.
"Well at least with this I ended up free at the end of all this "accident" as you like to call it"the young man gave up, with a clear disheartened face, even though the helmet and balaclava.
With a slight apology bow from the girl she added the following: "We are sorry for all this inconvenience, we have caused you . But I have come personally to assure you that once this is finished, we will finally put an end to all the loose ends left by the dragoons of the seventh operation."
Seeing that his task was finally coming to
an end, he began to reflect on what had brought him here in the first
place, and with a serious tone, even threatening, he asked, "And my
sister?"
"How is her health?" he expected a positive response because
otherwise, he would directly leave all this thrown away because that
was the only thing that interested him.
"Your sister has been cured for a long
time just as we promised. Since then she has not had even a cold¨The
girl tried to comfort him, she even tried to sketch a smile to appear to
be as sincere as possible, because it was important to his
collaboration with him in the mission.
"But I cannot give more
details to people who are not supposed to know with the information
available through normal means". And the angel was right, it was assumed
that for humans their existence was their secret, and much more that
they are divulging so much information to people who should not as if it
were a type of divine revelation for common people.
"OK"
"I'll finish with this and then
find a way to reunite with my family apart from trying to find an excuse
for all these years missing" he said, you could intuit that he was
remembering some scene with his family in the past because now he looked
calm again
That aroused the curiosity of the girl, who asked for a little more details: "Haven't you told her anything yet?".
"I have tried to talk to her but it has been impossible to contact her for a while" he answered.
"Alright it's time for me to retire I wish you luck in your mission"
"Everyone in heaven is counting on you one more time" said the girl getting ready to leave the room she was in.
After that little reunion, the girl went the same way she came from, again undetected by anyone but the boy.
Shortly
after the warning sounded, it was with which the pilots were called to
the briefing center to tell them about their next mission, one that
could change this war in which the world was involved, and that of which
other forces other than humans like the angles were taking advantage.
