Zwei Assoc. South Section 4 Faust/Identity Story

Speaker	Dialogue

Zwei Section 4 Faust	...Yes, I have visual confirmation.
Zwei Section 4 Faust	Reporting: Gregor on proximity protection has successfully neutralized the hostiles.
	The child was busy communicating with someone else on the line.
	She did not forget to diligently observe her surroundings while doing so, of course.
Zwei Section 4 Faust	Relaying to Rodion and Heathcliff. Reporting in a situation from proximity protection. Please continue to be on guard for hostile reinforcements.
Zwei Section 5 Rodion	This is appointed-persons protection. Acknowledged~
Zwei Section 5 Rodion	Ugh, hey! Don't eat all the donuts, leave some for me!
Zwei Section 4 Faust	...If you need extra provisions, you may report the costs as additional expenses.
Zwei Section 5 Rodion	Ooh! You serious? Gotcha~ Signing off!
Zwei Section 4 Faust	…….
Zwei Section 4 Ishmael	Did you just sigh, Faust?
Zwei Section 4 Faust	No. Faust merely exhaled more forcefully for a moment.
Zwei Section 4 Ishmael	I'm not saying that there's anything wrong with that, it's just... it's been a while since you've shown a genuine reaction to anything.
	The other child snickered before producing a notepad.
Zwei Section 4 Faust	...There is no need to record something like this, Ishmael.
Zwei Section 4 Ishmael	It's our job to observe and record every event during a territory protection contract, isn't it?
Zwei Section 4 Faust	I am not some observation target.
Zwei Section 4 Ishmael	Hey, Don Quixote is on the move.
Zwei Section 4 Faust	...Hm.
	While the other child scribbled in her notepad, this child breathed warily and began to fiddle with the panel in her hands.
Zwei Section 4 Faust	To Sinclair. Have you noticed any suspicious individuals entering the territory?
Zwei Section 6 Sinclair	Uh... That's uh...
Zwei Section 4 Faust	Don Quixote is advancing... somewhere.
Zwei Section 6 Sinclair	T–that's, uh, she thought some people were tailing our client, so she said we should follow them.
Zwei Section 6 Sinclair	And I... agree with her. We're the Zwei, our client's shield.
Zwei Section 4 Faust	The client has already made contact with the hostiles. They appear to be forces from outside the territory...
Zwei Section 4 Ishmael	Oh, someone's moving in on Don Quixote's position.
Zwei Section 4 Faust	...Sinclair, immediately move to Don Quixote's position and provide support. Section 6, follow the plan and focus on neutralizing any and all external forces.
Zwei Section 6 Sinclair	Ah! That fast... Roger that!
Zwei Section 4 Ishmael	...This turned out to be a pretty big operation, huh?
Zwei Section 4 Faust	While a joint operation isn't strictly uncommon, it's not quotidian, either.
Zwei Section 4 Faust	If sections 4, 5, and 6 are all being deployed at once, it is most likely because there will be a conflict of an equivalent scale.
Zwei Section 4 Faust	For example...
Zwei Section 4 Ishmael	Huh, speak of the devil.
Zwei Section 4 Faust	Indeed. Such occurrences would warrant it.
	What could the two children have seen?
	It must be the horde of hostile forces ganging up on the customer, or "client" as they call them.
Zwei Section 4 Faust	I have visual confirmation of overwhelming hostile forces converging in the area. Faust, commencing on-the-ground protection.
Zwei Section 4 Faust	Understood. Please direct further reports to Ishmael's side.
	Disconnecting from the comms, the child threw on the Zwei's coat.

	When she arrived, every corner of the alleyway was already filled with enemies.
	Beep
??? Shady Dealer	Are you... from the Zwei?
Zwei Section 4 Faust	Correct. We are the shield of our client.
??? Shady Dealer	Where the hell are you Zwei bastards even coming from... Mess 'er up!
	The child took up her Zweihänder handily, as though it was an extension of her arm...
Zwei Section 4 Faust	Faust, moving to protect.
	...and muttered impassively before charging forward.
