Johnny had finished his flight line duty. Charlie was fully aware that they had a professional crew working for him now, but Charlie's philosophy was a man at work was a man under control. Johnny rested in his private quarters - much more impressive and imposing than the previous. A new uniform was issued to him - black, military, with his LTJG ranking and REM on the breast pocket. He let it sit on his bed. He liked his aristocrat clothes. They reminded him of home. Of Mars.

Jaded, Johnny walked into the streets of Giga Float. It was easy to get lost in the high amount of traffic. For a few sparse moments, Johnny thought about chasing after that woman, getting a ride home. Seeing his friends. His friends.. Chuck, Keith, Marks. He hadn't seen them in god knows how long. Were they even still alive? Johnny walked into a car, ordering a rum and coke. Maybe after a few drinks, he'd start seeing them everywhere...

New black uniform on he felt he looked spiffy to say the least. Sort of the complete opposite of his Orb uniform but this looked a lot nicer. And as mentioned by the Kyrios pilot he went out looking for either Charlie or Johnny. And what did he know, Johnny seemed to be drowning something hard with liquor.

"You know thats not how to deal with your problems right?" Walking up behind Kyle took a seat on the stool next to his comrade and ordered a beer.

He rose a glass.

"To relentless ambitions and men dumb enough to attempt them."

He drank down the glass, gulping it down to the last drop. He finished, slamming the cup down. Johnny was many things - a lightweight, not one of them. The bartender poured another glass, and Johnny picked it up. Maybe Kyle was right. It wasn't a time to drink. He stared into the glass while it talked. He wasn't drunk - not yet - but his position was undoubtedly solemn.

"My new mobile suit is supposed to bring me up to speed with the rest of the team. The Mars.. I was close to it. But I guess we're not going to beat the rebels with outdated technology. If we're to beat them at all, we've got to put that tech to work." He turned to his ally. "How about it, kid? Want to help me christen the new unit?"

"What is this new unit?" He asked taking a drink of the beautiful amber lager put in front of him. He had taken a drink during Johnny's little salute but not understanding who it was for let it leave at that. Everyone had demons and it wasn't his place to dig into someone else's history.

"Not sure. There's this big box marked with a 0. I'm supposed to start getting used to it. Supposedly it's some kind of prototype. Cost Charlie a fortune. He's serious about winning. Could use a combat testing."

"Well its hard to figure out what that means by just a 0... If I knew what sort of systems it had or what we could at least figure out what to do with it." That and he didn't believe live firing an unknown machine was smart. Too many things could go wrong.

"Can we look at it at least?"

"Sure. I'll show you the new ship too. We'll have to report to it anyway; it's our new headquarters."

Johnny tossed a 20 to the bartender and walked out of the establishment. It's good Kyle came upon him. A few hours too late, and he would've been passed out on the floor. The two navigated the ever dangerous gambit of junkers, desperate to sell their wares. As they entered the ship hangar bay, the imposing visage of the Mother Eagle welcomed them. Next to it, a smaller, sleeker black ship idled. The Iblis.

"It's in the hangar bay. There's general orders to move all mobile suits there."

He strolled by the hangar's catwalk. And there she was. One big, mysterious box of love.

He indeed followed Johnny onto what was obviously a GN powered ship. He had seen these things before but the fact this guy could come across one was strange. These were brand new, using the latest in GN technology straight from Orb.

"This group is intriging... Where do they get their tech?"[/b] If Morgenrote was arming these guys then that would mean he was in the prefect group. If these were all stolen or bought illegally then he was an accessery to a major crime back home.

But pushing this thought back he walked along the catwalk towards the large crate labeled "0"...

"No clue. Charlie spends a lot of time talking to people behind closed doors. When I got back, they seized the Mars F90 and gave it back to the Oldsmobiles. Then he told me this thing was for me."

He punched in a key code, causing the front of the crate to open and split. The 0 Gundam's empty gaze stared back at them. The mobile suit was intimidating; much bigger than the Mars F90 - especially since the Formulas were smaller than your average mobile suit. Johnny opened the cockpit.

"So, care to tell me anything about this GN stuff? We've got nothing like it on Mars."

Kyle was amazed at the sight inside the crate. His eyes grew bit as he saw the grand-daddy of all GN machines... the prototype for all GN mobile weapons.

"Where did Charlie get this thing?" He asked out of concern cause this was suppose to be in a hanger at Morgenrote, not on the battlefield in the hands of a pilot from Mars.

But as for teaching this guy about this tech he had one simple thing to say, "Defy gravity... GN particles allow you to freely hover and fly through the atmosphere as well as do orbital drops. Its also good for jamming up sensory equipment." While explaining though his mind stayed stuck on where this thing came from.

"Damn. Charlie must've got friendly with the people who invented GN stuff. With all the time he spends in there, he probably could've invented it himself..."

Johnny went inside the mobile suit, keying in a password scribbled on a post it. The GN drive powered up - startling Johnny. He had little understanding of such advanced technology. How he longed for a book like the one he found in that Zaku once. The mere thought of a Zaku got him hooked on that train of thought for a while. In the meantime, the hangar started to fill up with GN particles. He'd hit the 'GN feather' control by accident.

"Uh.. is that.. normal?"

Basking in the over abundance of GN particles Ryder looked up at the 0 with admiration. Its GN feathers surpassed even his own GN burst in terms of power output. But Johnny seemed frightened a little and who wouldn't?

"Listen its just because the GN drive on this machine is ineffecient. Instead of putting all the particles in one direction they flow out like wings. Its perfect if you wanna black out a battlefield cause you can literally cover the entire thing with these things?" Grasping for one of the falling particle snowflakes he felt at peace. There was nothing better than piloting one of these gundams after all.
