Lilly stared at Sigmund for a moment then turned her attention back to Aidan. "General... don't send me away with your subordinate... besides there are ENEMIES.... They are on that planet... you have to crush them... all of them... We gotta kill them!" She said flailing about at the end when she said that the enemy has to be killed. "Please... let me and my drones help you kill them master.... won't you..." She said childishly looking cute to the point of being sad; She may not understand humanity but she understood how to look obnoxiously cute for no reason at all.







Meanwhile the shuttle landed on the planet as Remi got out followed by Mimi. "I wonder if the council is going to run away again..." Mimi said to her. "politicians always run... it is in our blood... especially if they don't know how to fight..."



 



Warren standing by watching along, as he sees someone unfamiliar, but does not comment on the matter



 



Aidan stopped her. "Calm the fuck down." he said in a stern but soft tone. "If you're telling me there are bugs and maybe more down there and we can go on the offensive, I am all ears. I need numbers, and positions so we can put together a strike team. (though it's tempting to let her nuke them from orbit)



 



"I'm sorry master.... Please don't disown me..." Lilly replied.



 



Scott decides to poof down to team one with android ceci to have fun(edited)



  



Godwhin walks in. ".... uh...." he just goes over to tactical without saying anything.



Lilly walks over to the person at the holographic sensor system and pulls up a hologram of the planet pointing out locations and putting them into the mapping system like she had done that before. Her tactical aptitude seemed to be much better than her social skills.



 



"Can you tell me if there is a controlling element in all this?" Aidan asks.



 



Warren hears and for a moment had a strange look on his face before going "huh, well then."



 



remi, mimi and the others make their way to the council... backup... chambers.... its a long walk...







Lilly replies. "Yes, General Sir... they are controlled telepathically by certain humans... some former FSF leaders... When evil phoenix meanie was killed you released all their binds and obligations to him... so you unleashed bads..."



 



"How many certain humans?" Aidan asked.



 



"Now angry fucked up madmen are free to roam the galaxy... One of them is inside of lead bug... he was consumed and became part of it... There are three on the planet..."(edited)



She seemed happy to talk about tactics and intel.



 



"under the right circumstances I can manipulate them, in others they usually avoid attacking me, dunno why." warren added on 







"I am going to guess there are in places where we couldn't just drop a guided munition on them and call it good?" Aidan said to Lilly.(edited)



Aidan starts gathering several companies of power armor marines to alert, along with mechs and support craft.



 



"tactical... STRIKES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Lilly said as she ran around in a circle.



Godwhin finally comments. "I believe we should just send her to the planet... she is distracting my men."



 



Aidan pulled Lilly aside. "Do you know what would please me the most? You being less spastic. The evil bad bug people are killing my friends and I see you as my friend as well. We need to help save the rest of my friends."(edited)



 



 Lilly said, "I'm your friend... I am honored General. I will be good... I'm sorry. Can I bring my drones?" She asked stopping and standing at ease.



Scott sees mimi and remi and says hi princess



 



"What I need Lilly, are hard numbers of bugs around each bad guy" Aidan said



 



Remi laughs at the Princess comment. "So Doctor we have been reduced to titles ey Doctor." She chuckles.







Lilly nods. "I understand but like fighting is more fun... Each enemy leader has a guard group of bugs like five or six but then they have armies that are there to take the planet... if we kill the humans telepathically controlling them though the bugs will go docile."(edited)



 



"Or kill the armies and they have no power." Aidan said.



 



 



More like I know you prefer to earn your position and not be handed power due to who your parents may be



 



Scott : And if I call you princess it's a joke for that desire you have



  



"I will go get my drones and head to the planet" Lilly said as she beams out of the station.



 



Aidan shakes his head. "Inform the fleet. Red alert. All hand to battle stations. This is not a drill."



 



"Aye... All personnel general quarters; man your battle stations;  Probability Core is up. All combat ready craft prepare for immediate deployment; marines and ground support personnel to drop craft." Godwhin said over the station's com system."







Remi and Mimi get alerts on the situation as does Scott. "Well... The station went form condition yellow to combat ready... what is going on up there..." Remi opens up a VX "Rembrant to Oynx... what is the situation?"



 



Aidan returns the comm encrypted to Sumire's VX. "TIme to go on the offensive. Reliable intel about several bug armies in place on planet. This time, we get to throw the first punch." In the more open channel, he said, Might be a false alarm, a heavily armed fleet just arrived."



 



"reliable huh... from where?" she replied in a non-condescending manner.



 



"Gainz and Skynet from Earth." He attached a video image of the fleet.



 



"Um... por que..." Sumire replied to him confused. Lilly and 7 of her drones appear with Mimi and the group. Remi turns around along with Mimi going for weapons. Lilly just stands there.



 



Aidan opened a channel to lilly via the ship since he didn't have her VX channel. "You left without permission, if I haven't given you orders, you don't know EXACTLY what I want."



 



"but...   you wanted to kill enemies..." She replied to him over her VX.



 



"I also don't want collateral damage. This is a team effort." Aidan said.(edited)



 



Lilly replied "I wont kill allies... why would I kill allies... I don't understand.... why do you always make so little sense mater... I don't understand...."



 



"We weren't finished talking before you launched into a new direction!" Aidan replied.







"But... Master.... You want me to kill things... I don't understand..."







Aidan replied. "If we do this smarter, we can get all three at once. Does THAT make more sense instead of you bolting off without notice?!"



 



Lilly pouts. "Fine..." She returns to the ship.

Remi Rembrant11/20/2018



Lilly wakes up; though still injured.



Ceci returns to her robots.



Hikaru Ino11/20/2018



You would make a magnificent cerebrate. You are turning away a wealth of power.







Hikaru paused for a moment, and then started to stand back up.







you are making a mistake







"You guys... can wake me up on the ship." Hikaru, having little option in the moment did what he had to do, encasing himself in a thick layer of ice, and putting his body to sleep.



 



Frank looks to his squad "I want a 360° area of fire nothing gets in alive and no heroics" as Frank's squad moved as ordered he walked over to remind "you going to be ok ma'am?"



 



Seleni walks over to Hikaru and says to herself "Just what the fuck were you doing?"



 



Remi shrugs. "I guess this is an example why I shouldnt dismiss my father's detail... as much as I hate him his guards are pretty powerful."



She rolls her eyes as he is in ice... It reminded her of Flan. At this moment she walks out.



 



Seleni motions over to the marines nearby as Dawn stands in Remi's way before she can leave.



 



Aidan turns, "Captain Sterling. take Lieutenant Ino to be evaluated by Medical. That's an order."



 



Lilly gets up "injuries are painful... how bothersome... I need a repair crew...." She whines as remi is stopped. remi just glares at Dawn.



 



Frank looks to Aidan "aye sir, marines let's go we are leaving form up around the lieutenant.!"



 



"Not only you need to rest but this team has a........ticking time bomb," Dawn says to Remi, motioning over to where Seleni and Hikaru are, as Seleni unloads the shotgun and tosses it away.(edited)



 



"And... what are you saying... the General has it handled... do you have other comments?" Remi replied coldly staring at the man encased in ice.



 



Frank and the Marines began esscorting ino back to medical



 



"He shot at you." Dawn says flatly. "It was deliberately aimed at you with the intent to kill." She sighs. "I only know this because all Confederate AI have a proximity-like datalink to each other. Seleni saw the shot aimed at you."



 



"..." Remi pushes her out of the way and just walks out heading up to a point where she can be beamed out.



Lilly gets up. "I guess we are done here then" She asked.



 



"Not my fault, i had a bug in my brain." Hikaru's voice echoed around dawn's mind for a moment(edited)



 



Aidan walked over to Dawn. "I want that information."(edited)



 



"Which information? The datalink or the blue on blue incident?" Dawn replies to Aidan.



 



"Um... i mean, I put my body on ice litterally as fast as I could... you guys have no idea what this is like.... it's not like me talking to you, it's like their is a constant rave dancing on my head. I see, i hear things, and it's... ah no sense in explaining it."



 



"We could remove the bug from you." Lilly said referring to she and her allies.



 



"We don't kill people unless we can't fix them." Aidan said with a little anger.



 



"you do realize i'm talking to you while my body is frozen in ice?"



"this... is... kind of beyond ptsd"



 



"Or don't respond to the partial human in the room... Well... I guess permission to be dismissed General..." Lilly replied.



 







"Get checked out by Medical if you need to, Lilly. We'll talk later. Dismissed." Get a Marine platoon in here and get this area secured. Aidan said to the comm,  turning to catch up to Sumire.(edited)



   



Lilly goes to the stairs and heads up them. By this point remi was at the top with Ceci whom both leave. the marines leave as well with hikaru and they are eventually beamed back up.
