"She's founded a company? For Gundams?" Chuchu asked Nika and Martin, who attended the party yesterday.

"It was Miorine-san's own idea!" Nika confirmed as she looked back at Martin.

"She solicited investment and bought out some of Peil's and Shin Sei's development teams on the spot." Martin voiced out his experience back at the part, "I almost fainted."

Then the mechanics, who are playing cards, looked back to the two attendees.

"Rich girls do everything flashier." Ojelo commented as he then focused his gaze at the game.

"She must have an ulterior motive." Nuno added as he placed a card on the table, "Four."

"Doubt." Till said as Nuno looked at him.

"How did you know?!" Nuno gaped at Till as Ojelo just grinned.

"Suletta-senpai's been having trouble ever since she and Kira-senpai transferred here." Lilique commented as she and Aliya are doing another fortune shit again.

Aliya then pointed her finger to the rock in the middle of the board, "You will have trouble with men in the near future." Aliya informed Lilique, who just chuckled in the end.

"What?! That's the last thing I need!" Lilique shrugged.

The Chuchu lied back to her bean bag, "Shouldn't we just let her do as she likes? It's got nothing to do with me."

"It's got plenty to do with you." Miorine suddenly said, with a paint spray gun in her hand as Suletta, who has an uneasy expression on her face, and Kira are behind her. All three of them are wearing matching t-shirts and shorts and they're all covered in paint.

"Miorine-san?" Nika called out, not expecting her.

"What'd you bring the Princess here for?" Chuchu asked in a bored expression as she patted her bean bag.

"I'm setting up the company here."

"Eh?" Came the shocked Nika.

"GUND-ARM, Inc. will be run by me and everyone here." Miorine proclaimed as she smiled, "That's it. You're welcome."

"Huh?/Say what?!" came the confused responses of Nika, Martin and Chuchu.

"Now the company's launched, there's a ton of things to do."

"D-Don't talk like we've agreed to this!" Ojelo objected, "And why us, any-" then he paused as Miorine pointed the spray gun to his face.

"That's what that idiot told me, and I don't care." Miorine said as she motioned her head to the Coordinator, who grumbled at that, "You'll be properly paid. Any other questions? None, right?" Miorine said as she looked at the others.

"I'm sorry." Suletta apologized as she repeatedly bowed, "I'm so sorry. I apologize for whatever Miorine-san's doing."

Kira however, just sighed instead, "It's also my fault. She's ignoring everything we said. Sorry, everyone."

"What will your company be doing with Gundams, anyway?" Aliya asked as she and Lilique looked back at Miorine.

"That's..." Miorine answered until she admitted, "what I'm about to figure out."

-Linebreak-

An MS hand-sized mechanical saw activated in Chuchu's Demi Trainer as Chuchu angrily roared out forcing her MS to angrily saw the metal pole in front of her, as part of her class activity.

"That Spacian turd!"

"Chuchu, class is in session." Nik told her as she and Nuno were on the ground spectating Chuchu's activity.

"Are you okay with this, Nika?!" Chuchu exclaimed as she asked Nika on the comms, "Why do we need to obey her?!"

"Huh? Well, if it means I get to work on Aerial and Strike..." Nika worded out her reason to her angered junior, "And if the company is successful, it's a chance to prove that Earthians can do as well as Spacians."

Chuchu gritted her teeth, not liking this situation, "Well, I'm not gonna wait on some selfish Spacian bimbo!" Then the mecha saw cut through the big ass pipe, making a cloud around it.

"It's breaking!" Nuno informed her, even though he's a bit late.

"Are you okay with this, Nuno?!" Chuchu then asked Nuno.

"Well..."

-Linebreak-

Then we're with Ojelo and Martin, who are in class together.

"It depends on the salary." Ojelo answered Martin while looking at his tablet about the Duel Betting Leaderboards. In first place is Shaddiq with 1.3, Kira is second with 1.9, Suletta is Third with 2.7, Elan is fourth with 3.4, and Guel fifth with 6.9. Heh, funny number, "If it's mighty, I won't complain. If it's meager, I'll slack off."

"No, no, no, no!" Martin repeated to Ojelo as both looked at each other, "We're talking Gundams! And witches! Well, Kira's Strike is an exception, but they're all cursed!"

"You want to learn about business, right?" Ojelo asked as he tried to persuade Martin to join, "Isn't this perfect?"

"It's a perfect disaster!" Martin retorted, "The group's big shots are-"

"Martin Upmont!" his teacher called him out as Martin immediately stood up, "If you can't be quiet, leave!"

"I'm very sorry!" Martin said as he looked back at Ojelo, who was avoiding his gaze back at him, "Count me out." Martin whispered as he sat down.

-Linebreak-

Then, Aliya and Till are at the cafeteria as Aliya puts down her drink.

"And what do you think?" Aliya asked Till, who had his own drink.

"Depends on what we'd be doing." Till answered. Then they were called out by Lilique.

"Aliya-senpai! Till-senpai!" Lilique then poked out from a bush, "Do you have any clue where Miorine-san is?" 

-Linebreak-

"You want to know more about Aerial and Strike?" Prospera repeated as currently, the girls and Kira are in her office, sitting across Prospera.

"Our company will be handling Gundams, so I have a lot of questions." Miorine affirmed as she went to business, "Is Aerial really safe? Can she be mass-produced? What is a GUNDAM OS? Why was the Strike built at Vanadis? And why develop her when you had to hide that she was a Gundam?"

Prospera then tapped a few things on her notebook. Miorine's notebook rang as she looked at what Prospera sent her, which is the data of the Aerial and Strike.

"I just sent you all of Aerial and Strike's past data." Prospera said, "But there are a few locked files for the Strike that are meant to not be discovered."

"Why is that?"

"It's a secret. People who want Gundams will trust numbers over your words or mine." 

"Thank you." Miorine then hid her notebook.

"Anyway, mass production is impossible at this point. We haven't pinned down the basic elements of the GUND Format, and aren't ready to accumulate data. You'll have to begin with analysis."

Miorine then recalled her father's worse from the party, "So that's what he meant. But what about the GUNDAM OS?"

Prospera then looked at Kira, much to his annoyance, "You'll have to ask Kira, he's the pilot of Strike."

"Um, Okaa-san?" Suletta then decided to ask.

"What is it?"

"Well, um... Why did you and Kira-nii... say to me... that Aerial and Strike-nii aren't Gundams? They are family to us, right? Aerial's not really cursed, is she?" As soon as Suletta finished that, Prospera stood up, removed her jacket, rolled up her sleeve, and removed her prosthetic GUND arm. This surprised Miorine at that as Prospera extended her GUND arm to Suletta, who looked at it.

"Does it frighten you?"

"No. It's your arm, Okaa-san. Same as always."

"Thank you. But even so," Prospera then reattached her prosthetic back,  "people can't help being afraid of the unknown. And they try to keep that fear at a distance. Or even attack it. Gundams will remain in people's minds as forbidden machines." She rubbed her prosthetic, which didn't go unnoticed by Kira, as she rolled down her sleeve, "Even so, I wanted to protect you four from the curse's abominable flame."

Suletta smiled at that, "Okaa-san... So that's it. It was all for us, right?" 

"But of course!" Prospera affirmed as she did a Jesus pose, "You're my beloved children."

Suletta then stood up and approached Prospera, satisfied by this answer, "I'm sorry for my silly question! From now on, I'll protect Aerial too. Just like when Kira-nii-chan protects Strike-nii. For your sake, Okaa-san!"

"Be sure to tell everyone. It's safe to have Gundams by their side."

"Right!" Then she looked back at Kira, "You wouldn't mind if I tell the others right?"

Kira took a deep sigh, having no choice, "Sure."

-Linebreak-

Then in a civilian transport ship, Suletta and co are inside.

"Anyway... Wasn't there something more important to ask your mother?" Miorine decided to ask looking at Suletta with her head on her arm as she was in between Suletta, on her right, and Kira, on her left, and asleep.

"Huh?"

"Like why you're able to pilot Aerial without suffering any harm. Knowing that Strike is the White Devil. Now you know they're Gundams..." Miorine continued on, "Aren't you scared?"

"Not at all!" Suletta answered her question, "Aerial, Strike-nii, Kira-nii-chan and I have always been family!"

Then Miorine looked away, "Have it your way..."

"Oh, Suisei-chan. Kira Ya-Oh, he's asleep." Shaddiq greeted as he floated beside Suletta, "Did you make up with your mother?"

"Yes! But I couldn't say the same about Kira-nii-chan, though..." Suletta looked back to Shaddiq, "In fact, I-"

"Suletta." Miorine cut her off, "Don't tell that creep a thing."

"You're mad again?" Suletta asked as she and Shaddi looked at Miorine.

"You don't want me getting close to one of your grooms?" Shaddiq assumed.

"You only want to know more about Aerial and Strike for your company's sake." Miorine pointed out, Suletta realized that she was right as she covered her mouth with both of her hands.

"And what about your company?" Shaddiq asked Miorine, "You have absolutely no time to sit back. You managed to make it through there, but your investors aren't philanthropists. Depending on your business plan, you might go back to zero." 

"What are you trying to say?" Miorine asked.

"Why not let me take over the company?" Shaddiq answered as Suletta looked at him and Miorine didn't give a shit.

"On what terms?" Miorine asked, deciding to humor him as Suletta looked at her back.

"Marriage to you." Shaddiq said as Suletta's face is now red.

"What?! M-M..."

"Oh, shut up." Miorine sighed as Suletta now finished her stutter.

"M-M-Marriage?!" Suletta stuttered as the ship's notification notified Shaddiq about his stop.

"Let's discuss this again soon. Bye now, Suisei-chan." Shaddiq said as he now left.

"Uh..." Suletta just looked at Shaddiq, "I... I-I think I get it. It's you, Miorine-san! Shaddiq is... in l-l-love with..." She looked back to Miorine as she readied a hand heart, but Miorine herself cut her off.

"Don't kid yourself."

"What?" Suletta then lowered her hands.

"It's just that he... was raised in an orphanage run by the Grassley Family."

"What?"

"That guy will do whatever it takes. Don't let your guard down. Besides, he's not my type, and I already have someone in mind..." then she rested her head on her hand as she looked to her left, not at the window but at Kira, which Suletta noticed as her eyes dimmed.

"You like Kira-nii-chan huh, Miorine-san?" Suletta asked darkly as Miorine's face immediately turned red. She looked back at Suletta, unfazed by her expression, and denied it.

"W-W-What are y-y-you talking a-about?! Who the hell likes him anyway?! He's just an idiot!" Miorine denied as she then glared at the sleeping Kira and hit him, "Baka!"

"OW! What did I d-OW! Stop tha-OW! Damn it-OW! Miorine-OW!" Before he could ask, he was repeatedly hit again by Miorine, who just kept on repeating "Baka" on every hit while Suletta's expression returned to normal.

-Linebreak-

At the Earth House, the members are now gathered around for the company's plans. Miorine is sitting with a desk in front of her because she's the president of GUND-ARM. In front of Miorine is a bandaged-up Kira, who's glaring at Miorine for hitting him for unknown reasons back at the transport ship while he is being medicated by Aliya and the other Earth House members just looked at him, now curious as to what Miorine did to Kira. Or the other way around. Kira's face is wrapped up with bandages, but his hair, eyes, and mouth are exposed of course. He also has to wear a fabric arm sling for his arm.

Anyways, with that aside, now let's get straight to the point.

"As President Miorine instructed," Lilique said with a whiteboard behind her while looking at her tablet, "I've organized the disclosure information for the investors."

"You've accepted your fate already?' Martin worriedly asked as he was in front of Lilique with the other members behind him. Nika, Till, and Nuno are sitting on their remaining chairs while the rest are on the floor. Of course, there's Chuchu on the bean bag.

Lilique then ignored Martin, "Putting aside minor registrations, there are a lot of things we have to decide."

"Like salary, wages, bonuses, and raises." Ojelo grinned since he was the greedy guy in the group.

"They're all money matters, huh?" Nika said to Ojelo.

"Those things are important too, but..." Lilique affirmed their words, "We have to start with articles of incorporation."

"Articles?" Suletta asked, having no clue about this. Martin then looked back at Suletta.

"They're documents that establish the nature of the company." Martin explained as he counted on his fingers, "The company's name, its founders, the total number of authorized shares...'

"The specifics will be written in the company's business plan, but..." Lilique slowly looked away as Chuchu guessed.

"We have to decide the company's mission, right?" Chuchu guessed.

"Whatever it is, it should be something profitable." Ojelo said, not giving a shit as long as they're making money.

"From what Suletta's and Kira's mom said, unless the GUND Format's safety is proven, we won't be able to manufacture Gundams." Nika recalled.

"What about the GUNDAM OS of the Strike?" Aliya asked now she finished her treatment on Kira.

"Only I can handle it. Also thanks for treating me." Kira said.

"It's fine, Kira." Aliya smiled at him, "Hmm.. then what about Peil's Gundam? I think they called it..."

"Pharact." Till answered for her.

"Did it use technology different from Aerial's?" Martin asked as he looked back at Nika.

"We can't say without looking into it." Nika replied.

"According to the documents we received from Peil," Lilique noted as she swiped through her tablet, "the cost of building one Pharact unit was... This much." She then showed her tablet to the rest.

"Are you serious?" Ojelo gawked as his expression quickly changed along with the rest.

"How many units of my mobile suit could you buy with that?" Chuchu asked.

"After buying out Shin Sei's and Peil's development teams, what are the company's assets?" Martin asked with a worried expression on his face.

"This much." Lilique showed the amount on her tablet as the expressions of the Earth House worsened.

"Are you serious?" Ojelo gawked.

"That's not even enough to feed Giko and the others." Aliya complained, worried about their goats.

Then everyone, minus Miorine, is now disappointed.

"Manufacturing is beyond our dreams at this point." Nuno said.

"Let's just make a rosy business plan to raise everyone's expectations." Miorine suggested as the Earth House members just looked at her with doubt, "Then people will come to finance us."

"What are we gonna sell, then?" Chuchu pointed out.

"Right..." Miorine admitted to Chuchu's point, "Normally, selling them as weapons would seem the most reasonable plan." This surprised Suletta.

"Yeah, that would be the natural thing to do." Nuno agreed to Miorine's reason, "Huh?" He noticed that everyone was too silent, "What? It would make money, wouldn't it?"

"You're a war orphan, aren't you?" Aliya suddenly asked him which Nuno answered.

"There are tons of kids like me on Earth." 

Then it was Chuchu's turn, "If we're only selling it to Earthians, I'm for it."

"But that would mean..." Lilique said.

"Earth would become a battlefield again." Aliya concluded as this was noticed by Kira, "I don't want that."

'That's right, there was a war in this timeline.' Kira thought as he recalled that. 

"Hold on a second." Martin called out, "In the first place, selling only to Earthians isn't even realistic. We're a part of the Benerit Group, after all." 

"Huh?" Chuchu said, didn't like what she heard from Martin, "Are you siding with the Spacians?"

Martin looked at his left then right then back to Chuchu, "That's not what I mean."

"I didn't come here to build mobile suits." Ojelo said with a depressed tone as he looked down, "I love money, for sure. Even so, I don't feel like profiting off killing machines."

"At the end of the day, you're just another spoiled kid." Nuno insulted Ojelo, who glared back at him.

"Oh yeah?!" Ojelo gritted his teeth, not liking that.

"E-Everyone! We can't fight like this!" Suletta called out as she and Nika tried to calm the two down.

"She's right. Calm down."

"What about you, Nika?" Chuchu asked as Nika looked back at her, surprised at this, "If Spacians do as they please with the mobile suits we build, could you handle it?"

"I..." Nika started, unsure about what she's gonna say next.

"The one who decides..." Till said as he looked at Miorine, "should be the president." Everyone then looked at Miorine.

"What?" Miorine asked noticing their gazes at her.

"Miorine-san..." Suletta started as Miorine sighed as she leaned on her chair.

"Who cares if we sell weapons?" Miorine said, "If you don't like it, you're free to go." 

"N-No way! We're all in this together!" Suletta reasoned as Miorine looked back at her.

"Huh? It's my company, you know."

"If that's how it is, you're the one who should leave." Chuchu suggested as she pointed at Miorine.

"What are you...?" Miorine was unable to finish as she noticed all of the Earth House members are looking at her, silently pressuring her for another way. Having no choice because of this pressure, she sighed and complied, "Fine."

"Miorine-san!" Suletta exclaimed, overjoyed.

"Martin!"

"Y-Yes?" Martin respond when he was called out by Miorine.

"I'll leave the details of the registration papers to you." Miorine assigned him as she stood up and pointed at him. Then she pointed at Lilique, "Lilique, you'll open the company's bank account. And help Martin with the rest."

Both of them complied with Miorine's assignment. Then she looked at the others, "Is anyone here a decent artist?" Aliya and Nuno looked at Till, "Design us a company logo. Make it stylish." He nodded at Miorine's assignment. Then Miorine looked at the rest who didn't have an assignment, "Kira... and the rest..."

"Don't lump us together!" Chuchu called out.

"Make a PR video that will rid Gundams of their bad image." Miorine said, ignoring what Chuchu told her. Then she prepares to leave, "You've got two weeks."

"Two weeks?!" Ojelo and Nuno gawked at the deadline.

"Nail down everything before my lousy father changes his mind." She looked back to the Earth House members, "Don't slack off!"

The Earth House members just gawked at Miorine as Chuchu recovered and thus started her rant, "That bossy little Spacian turd!!"

-Linebreak-

Currently, we're with Guel Jeturk, who's peacefully eating his cup of soup. Well, it didn't last long when four bullies surrounded him and one of them poured a water carton on top of Guel's head.

"Oh, sorry." mocked one of the bullies as he kept on pouring water until it was empty, "I thought this was a garbage dump." He threw the now empty carton behind him as his other bullies or rather lackeys laughed.

Of course, Guel didn't give a shit, much to the annoyance of the bully, "You're not making this fun."

Shaddiq then arrived and picked up the carton, "Picking up litter?" Shaddiq said as the bullies quickly looked back at Shaddiq, clearly not expecting him here of all places, "How noble. I'll pick up where you left off."

"Sure... Sorry for the trouble." The bullies quickly fled the scene.

Guel kept on eating as Shaddiq approached him, "Come to our House. You can shower there." Shaddiq offered as Guel looked at him.

Then he focused his gaze on his food, "I won't lick the boots of a wimp who was afraid to duel me."

"I only avoided it because I thought I could leave it to you." Shaddiq muttered which confused Guel. Shaddiq then placed a handkerchief on Guel's table, "Call me if you change your mind. I happen to be... quite fond of you." Shaddiq then left Guel as Guel looked at Shaddiq then back to the handkerchief, "I don't need anyone's pity!" Guel growled as he slapped the handkerchief away.

While Shaddiq was walking to his next destination, his notebook rang as Shaddiq answered it, "Yes?"

"I sent you some Beguir-Pentes and a Michaelis." Sarius told Shaddiq as a transport ship containing said mobile suits left the dock, "They're bringing anti-Gundam weapons too."

"I've no intention of seizing it in a duel." Shaddiq voiced out his intentions to Sarius as he kept on walking.

"Do it whatever you like. But don't forget. The Gundams must be erased from this world."

"Yes, Tou-san." Shaddiq said as he hung up. Then he stopped as he looked at the building in front of him a few meters away, "He's far too narrow. In his vision... and his ideas."

-Linebreak-

It's currently night time and Miorine's watching the declaration of the Cathedra Agreement from the perspective of someone recording it when it was broadcast.

"Gundam..." Miorine commented while in her nightwear and lying down on her bed as soon as she paused the video, "A mobile suit that kills its pilot. The GUND Format... I have to know more." She turned off her notebook and then sat up, now knowing what to do. 

-Linebreak-

The scene then changed as Miorine took a little visit to Peil Technologies. 

"As soon as your company is ready, Peil's development team and the Pharact will be officially transferred to you." Belmeria said as she and the teen were in the hallways.

"I look forward to working with you, Belmeria Winston-san." Miorine said as Belmeria looked at her. 

"Now then... What brings you here today?"

"I want to learn more about Gundams."

They are now out of the hallways and in one of the spectating areas of Peil Technologies where on the windows we see Mobile Suits.

"Mobile suits called Gundams that cripple their pilots' minds and bodies..." Miorine recalled, "The Vanadis Institute that created them along with the Strike... and the people we call witches are all to be abhorred. That's what the public believes."

Belmeria had an upset expression on her face while Miorine kept on going, "If they were defective they could have been improved. That is where the GUNDAM OS was created, right? An alternative to the GUND Format but is hard to control. But other than that...why did they reject that... and try to eliminate them by concocting that agreement?" Miorine looked at the Pharact, "And why did the witches create the Gundams in the first place?"

"Don't." Belmeria cut her off, "Don't call them "witches"."

"Does that mean that you're a witch too?"

"I was merely... enthralled by the GUND's ideals... and have simply been imitating what they did."

"The GUND's ideals...?" Miorine repeated, "Can you tell me more about that?"

-Linebreak-

Then Miorine's at her greenhouse, lying down on the floor while staring at her tomatoes.

"So you can't help hanging around this place after all." Shaddiq said as Miorine looked at him, standing beside the entrance.

"Did you know about the ideals behind GUND technology?" Miorine asked him.

"My father told me most of it."

"He trusts you, then."

"I worked hard to earn it." Shaddiq said as he crossed his arms.

Then Miorine took a few moments to ask Shaddiq, "And? Who are you groveling to today?"

"I came to grovel to you." Shaddiq said as Miorine looked at him again, taking an interest, "There are customers who want Gundams. If you can develop a machine equal in strength to the Aerial or the Strike that outperformed Jeturk's and Peil's mobile suits, many buyers would want to obtain it even without Cathedra's approval."

"And I'm sure you're aware of our monetary situation." Miorine pointed out.

Shaddiq then looked at Miorine again, as he suggested to her, "Why don't we work together? Not only I can give you financial support unit you're on your feet, I can lend you any personnel you need. Doesn't sound too bad, right?"

"And what's in it for you?" Miorine asked, not liking this.

"Gundams are a game changer that will revitalize the stagnant weapons industry." Shaddiq explained as Miorine sat up from the floor, "The group will never grow further if it misses this chance."

"Isn't your Daddy allergic to Gundams?"

"I'll bring him around. I regard it as my filial duty."

Miorine didn't reply as she looked at him while Shaddiq continued, "Back in the day, we submitted a project plan together in a business competition. A secret from everyone..." Shaddiq recalled as Miorine denied that she didn't remember a thing. But Shaddiq replied, "The plan was accepted, but our fathers found out and scolded us. Still, I haven't forgotten that day."

As Shaddiq finished, Miorine frowned and Shaddiq extended his hand to Miorine, even though she was a few inches away from him, "If you and I work together, I believe we can bring about a better future than our fathers. Miorine."

Miorine just stared at him, not liking his intentions.

-Linebreak-

At the Earth House, the house members, in their nightwear, are currently doing their assigned tasks.

"There. You can clearly see where it's been edited." Chuchu pointed out as she pointed to the video that Suletta, her, and Kira are currently doing. Kira's the one doing the editing as he's sitting on the chair while Suletta's beside Kira and Chuchu's sitting on the computer desk beside Kira. Kira sighed at that as he retried once again.

"Martin-senpai, there are mistakes here." Lilique pointed out to her and Martin's work as Martin panicked.

"Aw man..."

"Come on, you two!" Nika said as she was between Ojelo and Nuno, both mechanics were inches away from one another as they turned their backs on each other, "Hurry up and bury the hatchet!"

"And where's the Princess, huh?" Ojelo sarcastically asked, "The two weeks are up."

"I'll bet she got fed up and ran away to Earth." Till guessed as he and Aliya were doing their task as they were accompanied by Giko the Goat and a chicken.

"M-Miorine-san wouldn't... she wouldn't do that!" Suletta objected as she looked at Till.

"You haven't known her long enough to say for sure." Ojelo retorted without looking at Suletta. Suletta tried to find the words she could use to defend Miorine, but she couldn't.

"Looking for me?" Miorine called out as she entered the Earth House.

"Miorine-san!" Suletta said as she approached her, "I-I believed in you..." She was about to hug her but she was stopped when Miorine stopped Suletta as she grabbed her face

"You're annoying." Miorine said

"So, what did you find?" Kira asked.

"Yeah, have you decided?" Chuchu added, "How we're going to sell the Gundams?"

"There are two ways to earn revenue." Miorine announced as she released her grip on Suletta and counted on her fingers, "The first is to sell Gundams as weapons, this is where we use the Strike's GUNDAM OS for this. In that case, we'll ask no questions about who we sell to." The Earth House members who didn't like to sell weapons gasped and looked down while Chuchu just clicked her tongue. 

"And the other option..." Miorine added.  This took the interest of the Earth House members as they looked at her.

Miorine tapped on her notebook as she showed the gang a video. A video about introducing GUND by none other than Kira's grandmother figure that made Kira gasp. Dr. Cardo Nabo.

"Good afternoon, Spacians." Cardo greeted, "We are the staff of Vanadis, an institute for Permet research. Almost a century has passed since we expanded our biosphere into space."

"What the hell is this video?" Chuchu asked, now bored.

"Who is she?" Suletta asked.

"Her name is Cardo Nabo." Kira answered as the Earth House members looked at him, "The head of Vanadis Institute. The one who created the Gundams."

"And we humans... have always struggled to survive the harsh space environment." Then clips were shown, "Weightlessness, vacuum, atmospheric composition, space radiation... Even with expensive vaccines and implant apps, we can barely suppress the disorders themselves. Which is why the GUND medical technology that we're proposing could be a technology of hope for supplementing the fragility of the human body." Cardo said as pictures are shown around her office.

"GUND medical technology?" Nuno commented.

"GUND technology has the potential not only to expand the biosphere but also reconcile the divisions and disparities between the people of Earth and space." Then more clips are shown, "We hope you will join us in grasping hold of this ray of light that could lead to a better future for all humanity."

Miorine then paused the video, "This is the other way. Pursuing the true ideals behind the Gundam..." Then she pressed a button that showed a picture, "We'll complete the GUND medical technology and send it out into the world."

"But that means..." "Using Gundams to save lives?" Lilique and Till commented, surprised at this other option.

"A mobile suit... that saves lives..." Nika muttered as she and Suletta were amazed.

"How stupid am I... for forgetting the GUND's original purpose..." Kira whispered, making sure the Earth House members and Miorine won't hear him.

"I don't know if the world will accept it or not. However... it's worth a try." Miorine said, "First of all, it's great to take a different path from my lousy father. I'll take on all responsibility. Any objections?"

The group looked at one another, unsure of what to do.

-Linebreak-

Then we're at the GUND-ARM Inc. Promotion Video. Currently at a field where a 3D model of Aerial and Strike are as Suletta jogged in between the two models. Then the music starts. I'm so gonna cringe at this. As the singing voices of the rest of the Earth House sang.

GUND-ARM...

GUND-ARM...

A ray of hope 

GUND-ARM...

GUND-ARM...

Forward to the future

"It's safe... to pilot! It's reliable... to use! They can fly! They can dance! Aerial! Strike-nii!" 

Well, I'm not gonna describe what Suletta did at this one. As soon as that's done, the GUND-ARM, Inc. logo was shown as long as a chibified Kira, who has a bored expression.

"GUND-ARM, Inc. is dedicated to the medical use of GUND technology." chibi Kira said as Prospera, who watched the ad, laughed while Godoy's just in front of her holding a tray of tea. Then at Peil Technologies, Belmeria watched the ad as she had a smile on her face.

"We've finished drafting the business plan for investors and streaming the PR video." Lilique noted as she walked in front of the whiteboard, which everything in it was checked out of their bucket list, "The articles of incorporation and various applications are done. Once the school accepts our application for a student startup, the company will be officially established. Thank you all for your hard work!"

In front of Lilique are the Earth House members, in which the majority of them are tired as they lay their heads on the table. And the majority are Nuno, Ojelo, Chuchu, and Martin.

"I'm really tired." gasped Ojelo as he had eyebags.

"All we did was help with the video, though." Nuno added as he and Ojelo looked back. Then the next they did was a fistbump, now the two forgave each other.

"A medical company that handles GUND technology." Martin commented, glad that there is another option besides making weapons.

"It's better than being complicit in war." Lilique agreed as Nika just smiled at their comments.

"There's no good or evil when it comes to saving lives." Aliya said with a smile on her face as she looked back to Ojelo and Nuno, "Right?"

"I guess." Nuno said.

Nika looked at her junior, "Thank you, Chuchu."

"In my hometown..." Chuchu started without looking back to Nika, as she peeked her head a bit, "There are lots of people who lost their arms and legs in mining accidents. If I can make money and be useful to my family, there's nothing better."

Nika smiled as she patted her head on Chuchu's back.

"And so..." Ojelo said, "has the food for the launch party arrived yet?"

-Linebreak-

As Ojelo asked that, we saw Kira, Suletta, and Miorine on their scooters, with the said food with them. Kira's on a separate scooter while Suletta and Miorine are together, with Suletta driving and Miorine at the back.

"Oi Kira, you better not fall asleep. I used my own money to buy us this food." Miorine told Kira, who just chuckled at that.

"Don't worry, I won't. I'm not as clumsy as Suletta." Kira said as Suletta just cutely glared at him.

"Oi, Kira-nii-chan!" Suletta shouted.

"Yeah, you have a point." Miorine agreed as she retracted her statement to Kira.

"Miorine-san!" Suletta scolded her, but she sighed in the end. Deciding to change the subject, "Thank you very much, Miorine-san."

"Yeah, I agree." Kira nodded, "Thank you Miorine."

"For what?"

"Well, you found out about GUND's original purpose." Kira pointed out.

"Which is acceptable to everyone." Suletta finished.

"I couldn't afford to lose them." Miorine said.

"To tell the truth..." Suletta admitted, "This is kind of fun."

"Why is that?" Kira asked Suletta as Miorine just looked at Suletta.

"It's like joining a club, just like my wish list."

Miorine was amused at that as she called Suletta, "Idiot. This isn't for amusement." Then her notebook rang. She did a few swipes as she gasped, "Stop here!"

"Huh?" Kira and Suletta questioned but they complied in the end.

"Miorine, what's going on?" Kira asked as Miorine just glared at her notebook.

"What the hell is this?!" Miorine shouted as she pressed the apply button for... student regulations, which was accepted.

-Linebreak-

"As directed," Sabina Fardin noted as she looked at her notebook about a new regulation, "I've added new regulations. Article 53, paragraph 3 of the Student Business Startup Regulations... "Safety verification of new technology used in student businesses." Miorine can't start her company now."

Shaddiq just looked at his tea as Renee Costo further commented, "The Gundam will revert to being group property. Now Sarius-san just has to dispose of it." She giggled at that.

Then lying down on the couch and hugging a stuffed animal is Ireesha Plano,  "I feel kind of sorry for Miorine-chan." Ireesha admitted as Maisie May assured her, who is beside Ireesha.

"Don't worry. We can all help cheer her up."

"I won't let him dispose of it." Shaddiq said which got the attention of his teammates, or rather harem, "The Gundam will eventually be needed by myself and the group. I'll be taking over Miorine's company."

"And if she refuses?" asked Hanao Jazz.

"There's only one solution, right?" Renee smugly guessed.

"Though I doubt that's what Shaddiq wants." Maisie added.

"But we're prepared for what comes next." Habao said determinedly.

"We'll simply seize the Gundams..." Sabina said as Shaddiq opened his eyes with a determined look, "from Miorine's hands." At the hangar, we see Shaddiq's new Anti-Gundam Use Mobile Suit. The successor of the Beguir-Bue. Michaelis.
