     It has begun. Our long awaited retaliation has finally been put into full gear! Yellow Heart helps us push forward on the front lines, she inspires the people and attracts newcomers from all across Gamindustri due to her happy and energetic personality. I don't know if it's true but I've heard rumors that the other CPU's sometimes experience temporary losses of consciousness due to rapid share depletion. Our souls burn hotter than the sun and we have never stood closer to victory! Ruby still doesn't really like her ever since the incident in the field hospital happened. She nearly crushed my rib cage, but I'm not mad. I don't tend to hold grudges for anything. Ruby however...did not take so well to that. Anytime we're around her, she seems to be constantly scanning her. Seeing if she's gonna do anything else to hurt me. I always tell her to take it easy since she's on our side but she keeps doing it anyway. I was told to report to General Anonydeath's quarters for something. I knocked on his office and I heard his voice shortly after.

-"Come in Nanuk." he said.

     I entered to see him sitting behind his desk and with monitors on in the background of security footage.

-"Take a seat lad." he said.

     I sat down in the chair in front of his desk. To be honest, I was a bit worried. He usually only called personnel to his office if it was to punish someone for something they've done. Maybe he finally found out that I've been taking some of his pictures of Noire. I sell them to the highest bidder on the market for some quick cash. If he found out about that, I'd be pretty screwed. Personally, I don't have some sort of secret crush on any of the CPU's but Anonydeath seems to like Noire a little too much. I quickly came back to my senses and listened.

-"So do you understand?" he asked.

-"Ummm...understand what exactly sir?" I asked, having not listened the whole time.

-"*sigh*...You never were the type to listen to orders exactly. Listen up this time, I'm gonna explain it again." he said.

-"Yes sir!" I said, being sure to listen closely this time.

-"Orbital scanners have picked up a very suspicious cloaked area just outside Planeptune borders and I want you and Ruby to check it out. Take the Titan with you." 

-"You got it sir. I'll radio back to you once I discover what it is."

-"Wait Nanuk!"

-"Yes sir?"

-"This assignment is extremely critical, let no one know of your mission."

-"You can count on me sir."

     I nodded as I left the room. I went down the elevator to the Titan bay. We had recently started mass producing newer Titan models to advance our combat capabilities even further. I got into mine and Ruby connected. The hanger doors opened and we both ran out of the bay. We walked out of Eden borders and starting walking towards the coordinates. 

2 HOURS LATER

     One and a half hours of walking and 30 minutes of climbing up a mountain and we finally have the anomaly in our sights. The top of this mountain gave us a good view of the complex in the distance.

-"Ruby, scan the complex. What is that place?" I asked.

-"Scanning...data suggests that this is either a power plant powering something important or another research facility of some kind. I advise that we proceed with caution." Ruby said.

-"Got it, let's go." I said as we started making our way down the mountain and towards the facility.

     The journey down was steep and rocky but we finally made it down the dangerous slope. We improvised and made an entrance big enough for me to fit through by using a laser cutter on the outer walls.
