ALL ASHORE WHO'S GOING ASHORE

[peach-dme.livejournal.com]

*Once the foundation was in place, close to the unnamed planet's orbit, the investigation team was moved to the Elsa so they could launch their ESes from a shorter distance. As they moved from the dock, MOMO took the role of briefing the situation over ES transmission.*

Our craft are currently in data collection mode. Since this planet was recently formed and is still uncharted, our job is to gather data for the UMN, Second Miltia, and the Kukai Foundation. All transmissions and video monitoring are direct linked to the Durandal's mainframe data transfer. So everything we do and see will be monitored for this trip.

That bastard! Jin.. Jin! Are you ok, Jin?!

*He stared for a moment shaking his head.* ...I...am not entirely sure myself...


Yes...I am fine. My apologies for using such tactics.

[kookai]

*He sighed* No.. Come on, we'll postpone the trip while you get repairs. There's something I wanna check into now anyway..

*Jin stared at the planet sitting just before them and shook his head maneuvering the Reuben to follow behind the group.*

*Asher led the way back to the Elsa, and once inside, Jr. instructed Mathews to have Reuben fixed to Jin's specifications. Then he departed to the library he had constructed himself on the Durandal, taking MOMO and most likely Ziggy, by association, along with him*

*Despite being noisy he followed because contrary to popular belief Ziggy was literate.*

*Despite being horribly worried, MOMO was at least comforted by the presence of the two people she trusted most.. Besides mommy of course. :D*

* I'm sorry MOMO I don't know where your mother is anymore...She went to Second Miltia to Explode. D:*

*W..what? ...Ziggy... T_T*

[superrocketbra.livejournal.com]

* I MEAN SHES AT A SPA................*

[peach-dme.livejournal.com]

*Oh.. Well Mommy deserves a break too! I hope she's having fun there...*

[superrocketbra.livejournal.com]

* Yes...don't worry MOMO She is having...the time of her life.

[kookai]

*WELL ANYWAY, Jr. was already receiving the data he had requested from the bridge as the entered the library. After a moment or so, he began to send it to MOMO from his console.*

MOMO, please analyze this data.. And search for any relevant information in your data and the UMN ok?

*He then began to stalk around the book shelves, pulling a few books down here and there*

[peach-dme.livejournal.com]

Yes! *DOWN TO BUSINESS*

[superrocketbra.livejournal.com]

What is it you suspect, Jr?

*AND after having to pick up all of the chips she had dropped in shock at the battle they had seen over the monitor, Orihime hurried downstairs to make sure Jin was alright*

[hotsauce-plz.livejournal.com]

*Jin had given his specifications to the maintenance men and hurried off trusting they would be able to handle it with out his attention. Now he stood in the map room facing the wall, one hand against it as he rubbed the bridge of his nose.*

[miss-inoue.livejournal.com]

*When Orihime noticed him there, she stood in the doorway for a few moments, struggling to decide whether or not to approach him.. But in the end, she stepped just inside.. If he wanted to be alone, she could easily turn around*

Manager san...?

[hotsauce-plz.livejournal.com]

MM...*He stood and turned toward the voice.*

Orihime...

*Jin stood silently before smiling.* Ahahahh...I am fine...the damage to the ES was far less then it seemed and I myself am unharmed as you can see....

[miss-inoue.livejournal.com]

*She nodded, staring at the floor because turning her eyes up to him again* Is.. everything going to be ok?

[hotsauce-plz.livejournal.com]

*Jin blinked and stepped forward.*

...Orihime...please do not worry. We will be fine...I should have expected resistance from some faction. I... just pray that you and the others do not regret your decision to follow me here. I do not think things have changed much on the surface. The trials will be much the same as they were before. It will be ok, Orihime.

[miss-inoue.livejournal.com]

*She shook her head* Everyone wanted to help Manager san... Even Kurosaki kun.. If Manager san says it will be ok, I believe it.. And everyone will do their best to help!

[hotsauce-plz.livejournal.com]

AHahaha yes... *Jin placed a hand on her shoulder.*

I am thankful for such offers. I am counting on all of you. Thank you Orihime...would you pass on my sentiments to the others? I am afraid the battle has left me with other things I must attend to.

[miss-inoue.livejournal.com]

*She nodded, smiling up at him* I will!

[hotsauce-plz.livejournal.com]

*Jin nodded and pat her shoulder before heading out of the room and back to the maintenance dock. There...he began a letter to Pellegri. It was against his better judgment but he felt she should know at least what had transpired. He related the colonel's condition and apparent loss of control and the insinuated information that may be in her possession. He didn't ask for it however...and rather then sending it right away he stared for a long....long.....long time at the command button.*
