[Location: Space, ZAFT PLANT Colony. C.E 73]

A cool autumn breeze whisked through the air of the colony under the veil of tranquility. The only sound being the nearby transporters carrying Zaku Warriors to battleships. A singular autumn leaf flew in the air like a lost wanderer, before Athrun caught it gently, rubbing it's decaying face.

"Once again.... I'm back here." The words left her lips with a mix of nostalgia and old wounds lacing her words. The Second Alliance-PLANT had just began following the "Break the World Incident" and her efforts in trying to resolve this matter, now lead her to join Durandel's special ZAFT taskforce called Faith. A part of her wondered if she was just falling back into the same trap as before.... But Athrun couldn't just sit back as Coordinators were put in harm's way.

Her ears caught the sound of Shinn Asuka below by the Minerva, running away from Lunamaria Hawke and Rey Za Burrel because of a sparring session. A small smile tugged her lips at the sight of her proteges but her ears caught more then them... They caught your approaching footsteps. You were influential in the end of the First Alliance-PLANT War, someone she found herself leaning on as a true comrade who helped her to the right path. But she also knew why you were here, hiding undercover at ZAFT to scout them out. Though you both knew she wouldn't sell you out... Only if because you're technically helping ZAFT.

She smirked slightly, letting the left take flight once more into the artificial gravity of the PLANT before talking over her shoulder at you. "For someone of your caliber, I was expecting a better enterprise." She jested, giving you a once over with the ZAFT uniform you were wearing. You might be an undercover spy but you were still a dear friend to Athrun. "I'm glad we didn't meet on the battlefield in Gundams this time." A genuine smile crossed the Red Knight's lips as she fully turned to you. In this war for freedom, the forlorn find common ground.
