In other news, just got (stole) another letter from TheShinySword('s parents' mailbox).

Spoiler for Letter 2:

Dear Mom and Dad,

I’m so tired that I may fall asleep before I finish this letter. I’m lying in my bunk now, and we’ve just thrown the last of the girls into their cabins. Cabin 8, the twelve year olds, tried to sneak into the boys' side of the camp. You can practically smell the hormones pumping around here.

It was a pretty wild day today. It started strange, and then it got really weird. I came off of watch duty at seven this morning just in time to take a cold shower (Tia and I had to lecture Nanoha about the limited hot water in the cabins. The girl spent a half hour in the shower singing this morning. She opened the door, and it looked like an 80’s music video with all the fog that poured out of the stall.). So I was cold going to breakfast, but at least the shower woke me up…and woke the boys up two tables over. Let’s just say everyone could see how cold I was.

Jail and Precia heaped bacon, scrambled eggs, and potatoes on everyone’s plate, but it weirds me out when they giggle while slopping the chow. I sat at the table, and I swear that my potato moved to the other side of the plate. Tia laughed at me when I told her this. She said that I was hallucinating due to being sleep deprived, but I know what I saw!. I don’t know what the cooks are doing, but I don’t trust them. Or the potatoes, I don't trust them either. Those conniving tuberous roots! Oh gosh, I’m tired. I think that the potatoes are conspiring against me!

I was in charge of Cabin Four, the 8 year olds, and I took them down to the lake for their swim test. They had to swim the complete length of the swimming area and back again to be allowed in the deep end. I stood in the middle of the swimming area, and Signum watched from the dock [Handwriting turns into a line here. Can’t transcribe it. Sorry –AQ] Whoops! Fell asleep for a second. So then, Signum starts blasting the kids while they are swimming for their lives while yelling at them that they need to be prepared for an attacker. I tried yelling at her to quit, but I couldn’t get her attention over the blasts from Levantine and the terrified screams of eight year olds. Why? Because Falling Soul was having a nice little nap on the beach!! Mom, for Christmas this year, can I please get a new intelligent device? This one is such a jerk!

Falling Soul, how do I loathe thee? Let me count the ways. For example, tonight, the six of us are getting ready for bed. Well, Tia wasn’t; she’s got patrol duty tonight. HA, HA. So, we’re all sitting around talking about our schools and stupid stuff like that. I think that I’m the only one who doesn’t want to join the TSAB after graduation, but whatever, that's another story. We’re really hitting it off, and then out of nowhere, this long, wet, nasty fart noise erupts from behind me. Of course, they all think it’s me and hold their noses. Hayate even ran to the bathroom, grabbed the air-freshener, and started spraying it till we all were gagging from the fumes. Fate was laughing so hard at me. I was so embarrassed, but I look behind me, and there’s Falling Soul. I know it did it. So, I started yelling at it, but it said, “Machines do not have flatulence. That is a trait for organic beings.” This, of course, only made my cabin mates laugh harder. Thank God none of the boys heard. I would die!!!

I’ll find out tomorrow what the guys are like, I guess. My cabin teams up with one of the boys’ cabins for outdoor recreation. I just hope Falling Soul doesn’t pull any more stunts like the one tonight. You’d think that it doesn’t want me to have friends at all. Maybe I should give it to the potato gang! They’d knock some sense into him! Well, I’d better go before I pass out or the cloned eggs get me.

All my love,

Shiny Sword

Heh...

[Satashi]

I smiled wrly at the army before us. Countless people were marching in line along with types of machinery that I had never seen before. Bi-pedal mechs, tanks, some things that I couldn't compare to others, and much more were steadily moving in a pace that didn't waver.

"So, Vi," Syn asked beside me while gripping her device. Her tattered body was stained in blood, hair matted to her skin, and smelt of dirt and grime. "Are you ready?"

I couldn't help the sarcastic grin that came to my face. I wasn't fairing much better than her. My barrier jacket was ripped and torn, blackened by crusted blood and sticking to my body. My hair had long since fell from the ribbon holding it and flowed out behind me in the places that weren't tangled together in mud. "Ready as I'll ever be, Syn."

My friend got behind he and placed a hand on my back. "Vi, just in case we die..."

"Don't say it." I lifted up Falling Soul and aimed it at the people who were coming to kill us and the people we were to protect. "Tell me when we get back home, okay?"

"... Yeah." I could feel Syn's cocky attitude emitting from her body once more and a bow wrapped around my glaive. "You promise to listen?"

"Of course." I nodded and narrowed my eyes. We both knew this would probably kill us, but neither of us would let that stop us. We had a promise to keep now, and I would do anything in my power to hear what she wanted to tell me.

I always heard that people's lives flash before their eyes when they stare death in the face, but this was my first time to experience it. As we raised our combined devices, I saw the last week blur across my mind's eye.

Spoiler for To Make A Mother Proud pt.2:

I stood in front of Aunt Hayate and saluted her with a bright smile on my face. Syn was next to me and was practically radiating pride. The leader of the re-formed mobile division was looking at us with a serious expression, eyes glaring at the two of us. "Sky One, Sky Two," She called out code names out with a voice that I rarely ever heard. She was all business and even my partner got serious when she heard the expression. "I have a mission for you two."

Hayate stood from her desk and walked over to us. We were still only twelve years old but because of her shortness, Aunt Hayate was only a head lengths taller than us. "This is an important assignment, and I will tell you straight up: Sending you two is against my better judgment. The situation, however, has left me with no choice." A screen appeared next to her and she pointed to it. "An allied planet is in a state of a civil war with itself. A world war of sorts. The allied peace treaty on this planet has collapsed and they are rebelling against the peace they have with the T.S.A.B. They have many lost logia registered to them, and are using their power to fight the people who are rebelling against the uprising."

Syn nodded and I followed suit. "What is our goal?" My partner asked when there was a slight pause.

Hayate frowned. "They need mages to help them defend until we can send a more suitable force-"

The words struck a nerve deep within myself and my partner. At once we lost our serious attitudes and we both protested at the same time. "What do you mean 'more suitable force!?" I demanded the loudest. "Aunt Hayate, you know-"

"Silence, forwards!" She barked at us loudly, making each of us sink back. She had never yelled before and I could tell right then that she really didn't want to send us. "You will arrive to give a morale boost but you will not engage the enemy. They have many numbers and mages to spare. They have an army of rank Fs and Cs."

Syn snorted. "We're both AA+, we'll be fine."

I thought Hayate was going to slap Syn for a moment, but her hand didn't move. My friend still flinched, obviously catching the intention of the glare sent her way. "Need I remind you that several Bs together can fight an S-ranked mage for training and still force her to use full shields to defend herself? Ranks mean nothing against numbers. That is why you will not engage."

I saw a pause and took the chance to speak my mind. "Then why are we going if not to help fight?"

"As I said," she went on, now pointing to the screen that showed us what would be our base while there. "They are desperate and losing hope. Until our force comes back from their current mission, I can't send enough help to turn the tides of the battle. While you are there, you will give them the hope to keep fighting for a few days. I will dispatch everyone else as soon as they return. War isn't always about fighting, but also about mentality. You will not understand what your appearance will do for them until you see it for yourself."

"Ma'am." I nodded at her.

"You will leave at once. I have your preparations already complete so you won't need to take anything with you other than your devices. Here are your data packs." I accepted the screen that flew into Falling Soul and nodded. Aunt Hayate looked at both of us and before I knew it I had a hand on my shoulder and a scared aunt looking down at me. "Please be careful. You are going into a war field... You could die."

Syn answered before I could: "We'll be fine. Vivio and I kick ass."

~**~

I looked at my partner and grinned at her. We were on a space ship heading to our destination and I felt an urge to say what was on my mind while I had the chance. "Can you believe it? A mission that is going to require several top ranked aces and mages! And we're the first dispatch!"

Syn grinned and bumped her fist against mine, a trait we picked up from our mothers. "We'll show them, Vi. This will be our big debut." She brought up her hand and made a monitor appear in front of herself. "It says we're to meet with the leaders of the forward lines first and be given our assignments from him. Hayate already sent him our profiles and our barrier jackets have been programmed with their ally signals. We should be ready to go."

"Mmn." I nodded and looked at the planet we were approaching. My first deployment with Syn, my first real mission, and the first time we would be able to make due on our vows to do our mother's proud. We had large expectations of us and already we felt as if we were behind. When our mothers were twelve they were already triple A plus and well into the way of being given special treatment and being fought over by divisions. They were child prodigies and it showed.

Syn and I were several ranks below them, almost no real experience, and sheltered beyond belief. But that would change now. Hayate sent us to provide moral support, but we could do much more. We could show everyone that we wern't just little kids. "Syn," I spoke to her, taking my friend's hand in mine. "Let's make a dramatic entrance."

Syn grinned and clenched her fist in anticipation. "You got it, Vi!"

Yes there is a lot of plot XD but this will still be a romance/angst deep down :3\

EDIT: Yes, I nerfed Syn by a rank :P

Sorry, you quoted me, and I got confused. I thought you were offering to write a Star Trek: TNG and MSLN cross (Tony the Tiger would say "iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit's CRACK"), which would, of course, be crazy talk.

"This is an important assignment, and I will tell you straight up: Sending you two is against my better judgment. The situation, however, has left me with no choice." A screen appeared next to her and she pointed to it. "An allied planet is in a state of a civil war with itself. A world war of sorts. The allied peace treaty on this planet has collapsed and they are rebelling against the peace they have with the T.S.A.B. They have many lost logia registered to them, and are using their power to fight the people who are rebelling against the uprising."

Syn nodded and I followed suit. "What is our goal?" My partner asked when there was a slight pause.

Hayate frowned. "They need mages to help them defend until we can send a more suitable force-"

The words struck a nerve deep within myself and my partner. At once we lost our serious attitudes and we both protested at the same time. "What do you mean 'more suitable force!?" I demanded the loudest. "Aunt Hayate, you know-"

"Silence, forwards!" She barked at us loudly, making each of us sink back. She had never yelled before and I could tell right then that she really didn't want to send us. "You will arrive to give a morale boost but you will not engage the enemy. They have many numbers and mages to spare. They have an army of rank Fs and Cs."

Syn snorted. "We're both AA+, we'll be fine."

I thought Hayate was going to slap Syn for a moment, but her hand didn't move. My friend still flinched, obviously catching the intention of the glare sent her way. "Need I remind you that several Bs together can fight an S-ranked mage for training and still force her to use full shields to defend herself? Ranks mean nothing against numbers. That is why you will not engage."

I saw a pause and took the chance to speak my mind. "Then why are we going if not to help fight?"

"As I said," she went on, now pointing to the screen that showed us what would be our base while there. "They are desperate and losing hope. Until our force comes back from their current mission, I can't send enough help to turn the tides of the battle. While you are there, you will give them the hope to keep fighting for a few days. I will dispatch everyone else as soon as they return. War isn't always about fighting, but also about mentality. You will not understand what your appearance will do for them until you see it for yourself."

"Ma'am." I nodded at her.

"You will leave at once. I have your preparations already complete so you won't need to take anything with you other than your devices. Here are your data packs." I accepted the screen that flew into Falling Soul and nodded. Aunt Hayate looked at both of us and before I knew it I had a hand on my shoulder and a scared aunt looking down at me. "Please be careful. You are going into a war field... You could die."

Syn answered before I could: "We'll be fine. Vivio and I kick ass."

~**~

I looked at my partner and grinned at her. We were on a space ship heading to our destination and I felt an urge to say what was on my mind while I had the chance. "Can you believe it? A mission that is going to require several top ranked aces and mages! And we're the first dispatch!"

Syn grinned and bumped her fist against mine, a trait we picked up from our mothers. "We'll show them, Vi. This will be our big debut." She brought up her hand and made a monitor appear in front of herself. "It says we're to meet with the leaders of the forward lines first and be given our assignments from him. Hayate already sent him our profiles and our barrier jackets have been programmed with their ally signals. We should be ready to go."

"Mmn." I nodded and looked at the planet we were approaching. My first deployment with Syn, my first real mission, and the first time we would be able to make due on our vows to do our mother's proud. We had large expectations of us and already we felt as if we were behind. When our mothers were twelve they were already triple A plus and well into the way of being given special treatment and being fought over by divisions. They were child prodigies and it showed.

Syn and I were several ranks below them, almost no real experience, and sheltered beyond belief. But that would change now. Hayate sent us to provide moral support, but we could do much more. We could show everyone that we wern't just little kids. "Syn," I spoke to her, taking my friend's hand in mine. "Let's make a dramatic entrance."

Syn grinned and clenched her fist in anticipation. "You got it, Vi!"

Yes there is a lot of plot XD but this will still be a romance/angst deep down :3\

EDIT: Yes, I nerfed Syn by a rank :P

*me heard romance/angst* o.o grabbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbs!!!!!! do want!!! weeeeee romance/angst!!!! finally!!!! i thought i was gonna suffer from withdrawals... @.@ *clings to the new fic for dear life*

The ONLY star trek thing I know is the Jean luc picard song.

But really, do you need more than the song?

Eek, sorry about the day. Is there a chance to salvage the remains?

Captain's Log, Stardate 55911.8.

We have been sent out into the Beta Quadrant by command to investigate a spacial anomaly detected by one of our probes. Shortly after its discovery, all communication with the probe ceased, leading to speculation of possible attack on it. A few scientists, however, argued that the few readings it sent back indicated some kind of spacial anomaly. With the Enterprise E being the closest ship to the probe's last known location, we were dispatched to locate the cause of its mysterious disappearance.

Edit: Changed Stardate to be after the return of the NCC-74656 USS Voyager
