Congratulations! I'll read it after a while...writing chapter 4 right now.
EDIT: Chapter 4 prologue:
Spoiler:
POV: Kyuukai Tokiwa
Location: Conference hall
‘Sure are a lot of people here.’
I was sitting in the front row along with some of the other country representatives, the stage was right in front of us
so we could get a good look at the performance of the IS pilots.
‘This is interesting and all, but I wish they’d stop staring at me already...’
I’ve been getting stares from all over the auditorium ever since I got here, what’s the big deal? I’m not the only guy here.
‘You’re the only one here who’s even in their age limit’ A voice in my head suddenly said. ‘So go get a girlfriend already, you can rub it in to Akira later.’
‘Shut up brain!’
‘You know you want to...just say you’re a hero and they’ll be swooning into your arms before you know it!’
Oh great, I was arguing with myself, might as well call myself a schizo now and get into a hospital.
‘I don’t think that’s a good idea’ I heard the voice argue back. ‘Girls don’t really dig guys in straight jackets.’
This is probably what happens when you hold your hormones back, you get voices in your head telling you to get a girlfriend.
‘Nope that’s not it’ “He” laughed. ‘You’re a special case, that’s all’
'Nobody asked you!’
“Are you alright?” A female voice asked. “You’ve been moving around in your seat for a while now.”
“Huh? Oh, I’m alright” I turn my head and look at the person who asked me.
The person who asked me was girl with pale skin and silver hair. She was wearing a dark uniform with the label
“Shwarzer Hase” on her shoulder along with (you won’t believe this) an eyepatch covering her right eye.
“Then please stop moving in your seat, you are disturbing other people.”
“I-I’m sorry”
‘Whoa! She seems pretty strict, the uniform she’s wearing look like it’s from the military, she even looks younger than I do.’
Ever since the Infinite Stratos was released IS pilots were allowed to join the military and receive training as young as the age of 12. They usually weren’t deployed unless it was drastic since the IS were banned from official military use but it still seems unethical.
“The demonstration will start in a few minutes, please stay in your seat and keep quiet as to not disturb the others”
“I get it”
“Attention for all in the building. We will begin the demonstration in a few minutes, please take your seats and stay quiet until the demonstration has ended. Thank you.”
I slumped in my seat after hearing the announcement (which earned me a slight glare from the silver haired girl beside me) and waited for the demo to start, hopefully nothing bad actually happens.

POV: Irish
Location: Conference hall, back stage.
‘Alright, I have to make this quick.’
I sneak up to the person fixing the different stage materials before-*Smack*- hitting him in the back of the head and pulling him into the storage room.
‘Thank god this suit enhances strength.’
Making sure he was still asleep, I strip the clothes from his unconscious body before putting it over the skull suit.
‘It’s too big!’
The disguise’s sleeves were baggy and went over my hands along with the pants leg dragging on the floor. I looked way too suspicious wearing it like this.
‘Need to compromise then’ I pull the knife I stashed under the disguise and cut off the extra lengths of cloth. ‘It’ll have to do for now, hopefully they won’t see through it too quickly.’
After I making sure the clothes fit I pick up the radio and make contact with Viktor’s team.
“Irish, are you and your team in position?” Viktor’s voice called from the radio.
“We are. I’ve stunned one of the stage workers and taken his uniform, the others are outside with the getaway vehicle, we should be okay till the demo starts.”
“Michael and Joshua’s squad is in position as well, we’ll start the operation a few minutes after the demo starts, be prepared!”
“How much time do I have?”
“You’ll have fifteen minutes before I start my end of the distraction, that’s how long.”
“15 minutes? This entire building is swarming with IS pilots and you want me to kidnap one in just 15 minutes?”
“You’ll have to deal with it.” He deadpanned. “You don’t want to be in that hall by the end of the time limit.”
“What do you mean?”
“Just do your job.”
*Click*
‘Kidnapping the English representative in 15 minutes? Easier said than done Viktor’
I place the radio back into the suits pocket and make my way out of the storage closet.
“Attention for all in the building. We will begin the demonstration in a few minutes, please take your seats and stay quiet until the demonstration has ended. Thank you.”
‘It looks like the performance will start soon, better ready myself then’
Prologue of chapter 1, anybody please read and say what you think.
