"Well, I suppose Amy could use a new friend her age." You shrug. "But that would wholly depend on her. Hell, do we even know anything about this new idol?"

"Unfortunately, no. SMS has declined to disclose that information to us for 'operational security'." Dorothea grunts. "Regardless, their fleet will be arriving shortly. At the very least, they'll allow me to free up the forces we have stationed here to start staging counterattacks against the Zentradi incursions."

"They're not going to help us fight?" You ask.

"They're only contracted to defend Gateway. No more and no less." Dorothea shakes her head. "We shouldn't expect any significant assistance from them unless the Zentradi pierce our lines."

"Hm, well, I'm supposed to touch base with some of my contacts attached to SMS." Karla speaks up cheerfully.

"I'll have to meet with their commanding officer to coordinate defensive plans." Dorothea sighs.

"Might be a good opportunity for Amy too, don't you think?" Lara grins as she nudges you with her elbow.

"Yeah, sounds like a good opportunity for Amy to touch base with the SMS idol." You nod and turn to Dorothea. "You think they'll be okay with that?"

"I can arrange it." Dorothea confirms. "Anyways, that's all for now. You're all dismissed."

"Heh, pretty exciting, huh?" Lara grins as she gets up. "I heard those SMS pilots are pretty hardcore. Wouldn't mind going up against a few of them in the sims!"

"And you'd whomp all of them." You chuckle.

"So, where are ya heading now?" Lara wonders as the both of you head for the door.

"I'm gonna go grab Amy." You tell Lara. "I'll hook back up with you at the hangar when we head out."

"Gotcha!" Lara winks. "Gotta make sure my valk is spruced up all nice so I'll see you then!"

The two of you part ways and you head over to Amy's quarters, where you presume she is. You go up and knock on the door...

The door slides open, and you're almost taken aback by what you see.

Amy looks like a complete wreck. Her eyes are red and swollen by tears that are still running down her face. Her nostrils are plugged with tissues, her hair is all tangled and mussed up, and it' overall looks like she'd just had a horrid day.

"Amy, what's wrong?" You blink in surprise.

Amy just falls forward and hugs you, burying her face in your chest.

"I don't know." She responds, her voice muffled by your shirt.

"Why are you crying?" You're still unsure of what to do.

"I don't know!" Amy wails.

You knew you needed to do something, but without any information, you didn't have the first clue as to what course of action to take.

Shit, you couldn't just let Amy stand out here crying, someone could come across and see the commotion. You quickly pick up Amy and shuffle through the door, letting it slide closed behind you. You see a nearby chair and manage to pry Amy off of you, sitting her down in the chair and handing her a freshly opened box of tissues, which she gladly takes and starts dabbing away at her eyes.

"Okay Amy, breathe." You say as slowly and soothingly a you can. "Let's start this from the beginning. What do you remember last?"

"W-well..." Amy sniffles. "After you and Amy left for that important mission of yours, I just did some practice, took a shower, and went to bed. And then... I don't know. I just woke up feeling so sad..."

You frown. It couldn't possibly be from the Vajra Queen? Then again, the Vajra had deep connections to Fold space, and so did girls like Amy. Was it possible that when you killed it...?

"Is that it?" You continue. "Did you remember seeing or hearing anything in your sleep?"

"Um..." Amy pauses, her skin starting to go pale. "I just had a feeling I saw something terrible. It's still kinda fuzzy and... and I don't know if I want to remember it."

"I... I think it's coming back to me now." Amy bites her lip. "It's like... like I had kids. A ton of them, but one by one..."

Amy puts her hands over her mouth as they snap open.

"They were just gone. Like they never existed." She continues. "I don't know what was causing it, only that I couldn't do anything about it. I wanted to get up, by my body felt so heavy. I could only lay there and watch."

Amy starts to fidget as she tears up again remembering that scene.

"What does it mean, Harry?" She turns her gaze to you, pleading. "I don't know why, but I had feeling you were there too. Just watching, like me."

Vajra Queens are extremely fold sensitive, to the point that Tactical Idols have been mistaken for Queens and connected to the hive mind.

You kneel down so you can look at Amy eye to eye. You had be serious with her.

"Amy, remember when I said I had an important mission?" You ask.

"Yeah." Amy nods, dabbing away at her eyes.

"We killed a Vajra Queen underneath Gateway." You tell her.

"...shit." Amy blinks, completely at a loss for words.

"And I'm sure you've heard that Vajra are extremely fold sensitive, to the point where idols have been mistaken for Queens." You continue. "We didn't know you'd be affected if one them died."

"I-It's okay." Amy says as she blows her nose. "You had a good reason to do what you did... right?"

"Yeah." You nod, though you personally weren't completely sure.

"It's just that... that vision caught me off guard. Really messed me up." Amy grumbles. "But...well, now it's starting to make sense so... er.... thanks. Thanks for being honest with me."

"No problem." You grin as you ruffle Amy's already messy hair.

"I have to, Amy." You sigh. "It's part of my job, too."

"Yeah, I get it." Amy mumbles her gaze falling.

"Hey, cheer up, Amy." You pat her on the shoulder again. "You want to go meet a fellow idol?"

"A... w-what?!" Amy almost leaps from her seat. "Where did this come from all of a sudden!?"

"Well, looks like SMS is moving in to help defend Gateway, and they're bringing one of their own idols over." You shrug. "Figured it might be good for the two of you to meet."

"W-well, I guess..." Amy bites her lip. "Do you know who she is...?"

"Not a clue." You shake your head. "So we're both going to be in the dark on this one."

"Well... I guess there isn't much of a problem." Amy shrugs. "But like, do I just go there casually or dressed up...?"

You head out to give Amy some privacy as she gets herself somewhat presentable. Knowing her, and girls in general, it was going to take some time.

You stay outside Amy's door and bring out your phone, calling Dorothea's personal line.

"Harry?" Dorothea answers instantly, her voice tinged with concern. "What's the matter?"

"I'm just calling to report that Amy had... a reaction to the Vajra Queen's death." You tell her.

"Is she all right?" Dorothea's voice was now completely full of concern.

"She's fine, just a little shaken up. She had no idea what she got hit with." You sigh. "But yeah, I'm betting it's Fold related business."

"Very likely. Both tactical idols and Queens have deep connection to Foldspace." Dorothea says in agreement. "But she's fine? No lasting damage?"

"Not from what I can see." You shrug.

"Perhaps we should arrange for a full medical examination." Dorothea continues. "Just to make sure."

"Better safe than sorry." You sigh. "But can you schedule it later? I wanted Amy to meet SMS' idol."

"Of course." Dorothea replies. "Just make sure they don't get into trouble."

"What if she's even more of a troublemaker than Amy is?" You grin.

"Then God help us all." Dorothea groans.

"Ha, see you later, Doro." You chuckle.

"Wait, did you just call me-"

You hang up just as the door slides open. This time, Amy doesn't look like a complete mess. She was wearing a simple shirt and skirt combo with a jacket, in addition to that red scarf she always seemed to carry around. Her hair had been combed out and face cleaned up. Her eyes were still a bit red, but you were sure it would clear up by the time you got to SMS' flagship.

"Ready to go?" You ask her.

"Yeah." Amy nods.

The walk to the hangar is an awkwardly silent one. Amy just hangs close to you, but doesn't really speak, as if deep in thought. Finally, you reach the hangar where you see Lara waving to you two.

A smile returns to Amy's lips as she waves back.

"Come on, Amy, let's go." You grin as you toss her a flight helmet.

"Sure thing." Amy nods as she dons the helmet.

"We're ready to go!" Lara grins as the two of you approach.

"Great." You nod as you motion for Amy to come in and you help boost her up the boarding ladder. "Let's go then."

"Let's!"

With Amy safely snug in your rear seat, you and Lara from your Valkyries and into space.

"Huh... doesn't look like they're here yet." Amy frowns as she glances out of the cockpit.

"Give it some time." You reassure her.

And as if on cue, you can see rainbow flashes of light as ships exit from Foldspace. A few dozen, so a modest sized fleet. In the center, you could see the signature SMS flagship, the Macross Quarter-class carrier. Basically a scaled down version of a standard Macross carrier.

However, as you get closer, your HUD takes as the Macross Quarter, the actual name ship. The same one that had participated in the war against the Vajra.

"Holy shiiiiiit." Lara gasps, making the connection as well.

"Looks way smaller in person." Amy grunts.

This was certainly going to be interesting.

Already, you could see a pair of heavily modified VF-25s coming your way, each of the bearing SMS emblems and livery.

"Yellow Team, this is Skull Lead." You hear a voice over comms. "Welcome to the Quarter. Just follow us in."

"Hmmmmm..." Lara chuckles.

You already knew Lara well enough to predict what he was thinking.

"Lara..." You caution her with the sternest voice you can muster. "Can we ever meet new people without you trying to scare them to death?"

"Awwwwww, fine." Lara grumbles. "You're no fun."

"Yeah, no fun at all." Amy adds.

"Don't you start now, Amy." You sigh.

The two VF-25s take the lead, showing you where to land your Valkryies in. The hangar was noticeably smaller than the one on the Pacifica, but it was no less busy. Every open space was packed to the brim with Valkyries, weapons, and techs going to and fro. There are two empty spaces set aside for your Valkyries which you park in and disembark. As you help Amy out of her seat, you can see the pilots of the two VF-25s heading over to you.

"So you must the pilots from the 7th TSF." The lead pilot says, taking off his helmet to reveal slicked back blonde hair and a pair of thin rimmed glasses. "I'm Michael Blanc. Commander of SMS' Skull Squadron."

"A-and I'm Luca Angelloni, Skull 2!" Michael's rather short, babyfaced wingmate salutes. "Welcome to the Macross Quarter!"

"Captain Harry Neumann." You return the greeting. "And this is-"

"Lieutenant Lara Williams! And don't you forget it!" Lara bursts in with a grin.

And for a brief moment, you could swear you could see Michael shiver at the sight of Lara and almost think you hear him mutter, "There can't possibly be two of her!"

However, he quickly regains his composure and catches sight of Amy leaping down from your Valkyrie.

"And your star, I presume?" He grins.

"Amy Gates." You introduce her.

"Seems like a troublemaker." Michael chuckles.

"You have no idea." You nod. Well, it seemed like he was nice enough.

"I'm right fucking here, you know." Amy grunts.

"Well, we showed you our idol. It's your turn now." You respond.

"Heh, fair enough." Michael chuckles and spins around on his heel. "Follow me, then."

"I'll get our Valkyries tuned up and ready for the next flight." Luca says as he picks up a datapad and toolbox. Looks like he was pretty tech oriented.

Michael just gives a casual wave, not even turning around. He definitely had that cocky air about him that most ace pilots exuded. He leads the three of you to an elevator and you all step in. The elevator then starts to rise.

"So I suppose you've got a lot of questions about SMS." Micheal grins as he crosses his arms and leans his back on the elevator wall.

"Eh, not really." You shrug.

"Nope!" Lara says cheerfully.

"Don't really care." Amy rolls her eyes.

"Hey, don't be mean like that." Michael groans, his bravado heavily wounded.

"So, you just come off from any other contracts?" You ask. "Anything going on at the other colonies?"

"I wish." Micheal sighs. "It's been pretty smooth sailing for SMS these past few years. Mostly just guarding Fold quartz shipments from the Frontier colony and accompanying mining expeditions looking for more of the stuff. We've got a pretty secure source of income."

"You sound almost disappointed." Amy frowns.

"Yeah, well, I'm a fighter pilot at heart, and when all you're doing is babysitting superfrieghters, you kind of get that itch to change things up." Micheal grins. "Our Boss pretty much thinks the same way. Never saw him jump on another contract so fast."

"I feel ya there." Lara nods in sympathy.

"And the other colonies? Well, I can't really say. At least the ones under SMS contract haven't been having any real problems." Michael continues. "At least, nothing as serious as this stretch of space seems to have."

"I suppose." You nod.

That's when the elevator finally stops, and the doors slide open to reveal a young girl with long brunette hair. For a brief moment you thought she was Amy's long lost twin, but as your eyes adjusted you could tell that she was far, FAR different. She seemed to exude a sort of beauty and presence that Amy lacked.

"Ah, guess she was really eager to meet you guys." Micheal laughs. "This here is our newly minted idol."

"Rin Shibuya, at your service." She smiles and does a little curtsy.

You're at first taken aback by Rin's appearance, her teal eyes seeming to pierce through your very being.

"Hot daaaaaaamn." Lara whispers. "She's pretty smokin'..."

However, Amy simply steps forward and just casually holds her hand out.

"Yo." She says simply. "Name's Amy. Guess we're in the same line of work."

"That we are!" Rin smiles and nods, clasping Amy's hand with hers.

"Well, we can give you girls some privacy, if yo want." Micheal shrugs.

"That would be wonderful!" Rin smiles.

"Ehhhh, is that okay with you, Cap?" Amy asks you.

"Sure, you two girls have fun." You nod to Amy and Rin.

"Come on, Amy!" Rin says eagerly as she takes Amy by the hand and leads her off.

"Heh, guess she really wanted to have someone her own age around." Michael muses before looking to you and Lara. "So, looks like we've got a bit of time to kill. You guys have anything in mind?"

So this quest is using the movies as canon?

Also wonder if Shiburin is going to be more aggressive in this quest.
