~( HomeWork1: Information -Commencing Quest - )~

" "yeah..." Miko took a very deep breath, closed her eyes for a while.
She then turned to them "change of plan, no need to talk to Earl-sama, if it's Akuma we need; we can order some to follow us ourselves"
still having her serious face; her eye looked at each one of them
"everyone... we'll be moving tonight, you have 2 hours to gear up, and to prepare yourselves for the mission ahead.. when you are done preparing and ready; please return to this room, and wait for my signal..." she was still holding Chrome's glasses
"if you have no questions, please go now and prepare " "

----------

As Miko said that, she herself headed back to her room, which actually was Chrome's room since she hadn't picked one for her own yet, but he -as usual- was locking himself up in his office
She entered the room, and looked at the door that separates her from him, still holding tight onto his glasses; she wasn't sure how should she give the glasses back to her dearest Fiancee

She went to where the bed was, holding a note in her hand, she wrote over it

"To my one love Chrome-san,
I borrowed your glasses for a while, I needed your presence in what I'm attempting to do, but I know you need your glasses for reading, so I'll turn them back just like I took them ^-/ /
I might leave the house for a few days, along with the rest of our family.. I have a plan which I hope it succeeds without harm, please don't be mad at me, Chrome-san, I'm only trying to help you with all the burden over your shoulders, and so is everyone of our family ^_/ /
Please be proud of us, just as much as we are proud of you as our Leader and our Brother -and my Fiancee <3-
We'll try to finish things where we're headed as fast as we can, once we're back; you can question me all you want. I'll be missing you so much
Your beloved,
Miko. "

Miko then put the glasses over the note on the bed and kissed her engagement ring, she changed to her new white battle outfit, took a deep breath;
Then returned to the living room, waiting for the rest of her siblings to come

Chrome looked up from his studies. he had heard a light stumbling from the room next to his study, but it was too far away to sense.
"Miko?"
He got up and left his study. The girl was already gone, though.
"......damn it... is it just me or is everyone avoiding me?"
He then found the note. He read it a few times....
Honestly, the content pissed him off. what were they planning, leaving him out? weren't they all a family?
....but as a captain, he thought he should respect their wishes..
He glanced back to his study. '.....I need to complete this, too... I wish I'd have it done before they'd do something reckless, though...'
He walked to a book shelve and picked Tune from it.
"keep an eye on them in my place, okay?"
Tune nodded and flew off into the halway, bumping into Miko's back when reaching the living room.
" >oo<''' "

( btw, Chrome can join now! =< Miko only wanted to secure the plan and motivate her siblings before Chrome finds out about the little plan, he'll be needed a lot with this guy's *points at Meier* presence xD *shot*)

"Mii? <./ /" Miko turned to see what pumped into her "Tune!!! ;oo/ /~<3" she held the golem, and hugged her so tightly, snuggling her close to her face "oh Tune, I missed you and your master so bad ;/// /" she patted the pink golem, stroking her little wings "ne, Tune.. when Chrome-san read the note.. was he angry? Or upset?"

Cail walked towards miko, also wearing the white uniform that they were required to wear with an ever growing frown.
We look like friggin Dentists. B| he mumbled to no one in particlar. Deciding not to bother his sister with his complaints he looked around the room for a certain small, mad noah with an ice cream fetish.

Xin was sitting in the courner of the room, wearing the white uniform, awaiting further instructions.

(well, if so, you need to go and tell him yourself -.-' he didn't get that from your note...)

Tune shook her head, then rubbed her eyes, as if to say 'He's sad'

Roma was dressed in white, finishing the last of a perhaps plan B. Depending on Miko's final stratergy.
His eyes, slided over to his captains office with a not-completely-decipherable look.
"Shall we go over the roles one last time? A mission briefing? Just to see if there are any holes unplugged?" He placed his arm over eachother. Looking serious, if not concerned. "Our plan B is steaming in the oven, by the way."

[Nero: Y-yes! I am ready!]
(sorry, been ill ;p here now!)

(...r.....roma in full white =¬=....)

[Would it be sexy? >>' ]

(no, I'm drooling for no particular reason 'B|)

( yeah, she wanted to tell him before changing clothes; but she was really worried she'd only interrupt him)

" ;~/ /||| Mii~ .." she turned to Roma "Roma-san, I'll leave this to you, my conscious hurts ;-/ /' so I need to go and do something before heading out <./ /" she headed to the door "please revise it with the rest of our siblings! >-/ /' I'll be counting on you, Roma-san!"
and headed out, back to the room she came from a while ago, still holding Tune

Chrome could hear a knock on his door "<-/ /.."

"hn?" miko could hear from behind the door. Chrome was there.

Roma sighed at the idea of miko abandoning the helm, but was glad on another note. If things went wrong now, atleast it wouldn't be his precious Miko hurting him. He bared his arms and called everyone together.
"So the rough plan is to get the earl to hand us a broker, and start an itel-gather plan. For now.
The main goal of this mission is info. And either the broker or one of us intern is going to delever this information." he looked at everyone seriously.
"With Miko as a leader for now, we'll all be reporting to her. "
"Everyone with me so far?"

The noah paused.

"We're gonna need suggestions. So anyone with idea's please do tell." ...

"One; Someone to guard the broker, and take the information he finds, seen or unseen. " He screened around.
"Two; someone who will get that info to Miko. Akuma are too unreliable, since they have an estimated life-durance of ten seconds on meeting an excorsist. So basically, someone who can courier, without getting sloughtered.
"Three; Someone with general knowlage of the system there" He casted a look to Sam and Prince. "t needs to be intrepided right, or else the gained information is useless."
"And The role of leader is set on either Miko, or the Captain. Depending on who's there"

"Last but not least, fase one needs good diplomats who can convince the earl. Now I am by no means a star diplomat. And in normal settings, I would recommend our captain above anything, but since that is not the case now, we'll need to suffice with others. Who has the guts and skills to try this? It could get hairy.. " He relaxed after the long word stream, which was unusual for him.

"does everyone agree? Or are there more suggestions? More things we could/should do? Let me know NOW. Not while were in action please.
Couse really, I am no strategical wonder..." he placed his hand behind his head.

[sorry for the text stream ;_; I hope this plan is worth it....]

(the sleeping vice-captain has awoken =#<...)

( *u* no wonder you were chosen as a vice captain <3 it's awesome dear! )

Miko took a deep breath, and opened the door slowly "I-I.. hope I'm not interrupting you, Chrome-san.." she looked down "please don't be sad <-/ / Miko would never keep secrets from you"

chrome looked at her for a second, then turned his back to her. "hmpf....just do whatever you want.."

"Chrome-san," the girl went to him and clung to his arm "please don't misunderstand my intention, we believe in you, we trust you, and respect your choices.." she looked down for a while "we just wanted to show you some little gratitude to all the burden you take off us, look at how united we've all become now" and slightly smiled "their spirit is back into them, Chrome-san, they're all willing to fight now, even Sam-chan are Prince and willing to help.. ne? Please don't be upset"

"United?...." chrome paused for a while. either thinking of something spiteful to say or to swallow it. "yeah.... the 6 of you sure are united like this..."

Miko sighed "Chrome-san.. united in strength, in force, and will power.." she turned him to look at her "we're 7, not 6, we've united our strength with yours, instead of you being alone to face everything, ne?"

" how can we do the mission without our Taichou to lead us? " she held both his arms "Chrome-san, we need you, please believe me when I say that we never meant to avoid you nor exclude you out of it, I just expected your reaction.. that's why I had to prepare eevrything before letting you know" she looked up to him "isn't it our job to work together as one family? We only prepared the plan, now we need you to lead us.. ne?"

A knock on the door sounded in the pause of their conversation.

Chrome glanced at the door and shrudged miko's hand off a little. "enter.."

Roma entered swiftly observing the situation before speaking.
"Captain, since I take you are notified now, I'd wish to officially ask permission to continue the preparations..."
He exhaled. "I'd rather not do this without your support..." he added softer of tone.
