The Alexandria Class Cruiser named Tobruk came into view from the Pezun traffic control. It's hull was untouched but on the inside it was another story. A sudden uprising during her fight with the rogue carrier Achilies had caused great moral damage and interior damage while it was being put down. Nobody had expected this Unnatural and tragic boon for the Achilies allowing it to escape.
The captain Maxamilian Rhom had decided to break from the chase for now. Surely the Achillies had taken damage durin the fight and would be licking it's own Wounds aswell. And as fate seemed to have it Maxamilian had been informed he was recieving yet another new pilot. His exhausted mind could only imagine it was a politicall officer or internal investigations agent to ferret out weakness or build a false report that would be trying and even crippling to maxamilians plans.
All this was hidden away as the Tobruk began to dock. Maxamilian put on his usual nuetral face and captains hat and began to make his way down to the hangar. There he could atleast meet what or who was coming face to face.

The base was filled with chatter of soldiers talking about their daily lives and how much they miss their families. The engineers working on the ships in the hanger, sparks flying off as they work. The new pilot for the Alexandria class ship, was waiting at the docks. A man was standing next to him, with a security guard next to him.
It was a professor from the Augusta Newtype Labs. He had a serious look on his face, the face of a man believing he could do better things with his time than babysitting a boy. He held a briefcase with him, there was a warning sticker on the side with the words 'confidential' on it.
The pilot was excited to finally leave to the star of seas. He looked around the hanger at the other people going on with their business. The three stood there waiting for the Tobruk to dock.

Maxamilian aproached the group, he was curious it was one of the few times one of the researchers or doctors had come to him directly. He eyed the two once he was close, his Newtype powers reaching out passively to read them more thoroughly. It was easy now that the man's shadow was appeased.
Behind maxamilian a damaged GM Quel could be seen. It's visor was completely gone and half of an arm along with most of its paint and structural integrity it seemed. It did not even appear operable with all the damage, it would likely be retired from service soon. Accompanying it were some other damaged Quels and the looming figures of a modified RX-78T and NT-1.
"What is it that the research department needs of me? It has been a hard hunt, I would like to be done quickly." Maxamilian spoke in a calm manner with a hard gaze from the shadow cast by his hat. He held himself like a man in charge and oozed criticality.

The Professor sneered a bit, looking at the GM Quel behind Maximilian. He stepped word, fixing his tie as he dit. Behind the Professor there was a new mobile suit being transported to the Tobruk.
"Hmph... I'm only here to bring a delivery to you." said the Professor handing him the suitcase. "Give this to your medical officer, they will know what to do." he said with a serious and impatient tone.
He looked over to the boy standing behind him. The boy stepped forward, waiting to be introduced. With a sigh the Professor spoke, "This is your new pilot who will be joining you on your ship." The boy extended his arm for a handshake. "It's an honor to meet you sir, my name is Jesse Links." he said with a smile.

Maxamilian took the suitcase and shook Jessies hand afterward. His stern expression remained. His poor GM Quel though weighed on him a bit, it was a fair loss given that it was a higher performance model. The data received from it would live on.
The hollow Space where the viser used to be seemed to darken as the new machine passed it. Maxamilian had left a gift behind inside of his quel rather he knew it or not. It would bide it's time until the Quel was destroyed or even repaired before making itself known.
"It's good to have you Jessie, I'm assuming your a cyber newtype. I hope your good at piloting, we won't be getting lucky with close calls like my quel did." Maxamilian revealed that he had been the pilot of the damaged machine. Though what had done the damage was a single "Near" miss from one of the Tobruks beam turrets.

The Professor fixed his tie again before speaking. "I bid you farewell sir." he said bowing slightly, before turning around and walking off to the exit. The security guard following close behind.
"That Mobile suit has seen better days huh?" he asked rhetorically. He looked back at Maxamillian, his serious face was rather intimidating. "Well I am under your command now sir" he said saluting.
Some of the other soldiers in the hanger stared at the new machine being moved to the Tobruk. Other soldiers were also looking at the broken GM Quel.

"Yes, mutineers fired one of the beam turrets at the ship we were chasing. The attack passed close by and almost destroyed the suit. But for this one lost we now gain yours." Maxamilian admired the machine noticing the head crest. Another Gundam more than likely. He was drawn to his own agenda here at Pezun, part of which involved getting the GM sniper III a new head and possibly exchanging some of the quels for another machine in development. As much as it pained him logistically.

Hmm.. It sounds like it went through some trouble." he said looking back at Maximilian. "I'll head onto the ship sir, get myself accomidated with the place." he said, holding out his hand again.
