The communication request had been sent, and had arrived nearly an hour after the Artucus incident. It was allowed though, and directly linked the caller to the Interstellar Manufacturing Corporation, CEO.
The communication detailed [i]something[/i] though, the information was quickly erased from the minds of the IMC. Or at least specific parts of it.
A meeting had been set up in a neutral location, on a planet codenamed: "Honeywell."
Two IMC cruisers sat in orbit of the planet, with a dropship having landed in the plains on world, and awaited the arrival of "Cerberus"

He gestured him back to the hangar. One of the soldiers walked up to Kotch. "Sir, M-1's making his way in!" He said. "How was the test?" Kotch asked. "Perfectly capable of war, sir!" The soldier replied. "Bring it in, then!" Kotch had yelled, before he leaned into the ear of Derek. "The plans are in my omni-tool. Let me introduce to you...Cerberus's first Titan." He whispers. Walking in from the blistering cold of the planet itself, was a [url=https://prod-media-eacom.pulse.ea.com/content/eacom/en_GB/games/titanfall/titanfall-2/news/2017/5/frontier-news-network-15/_jcr_content/bodyPar/section/columns/column/content/media/asset/adaptiveimage/xsmall.img.jpg]giant machine[/url], walking in, a experimental giant ML-77 Rocket Launcher on its body. It walked through the doors, and shut down, a soldier climbing out of it, high-giving his buddies on the way out. "May I introduce you to the M-1, or as the recruits call him...Monarch." Kotch whispered to Derek, letting him sink in the new Titan.
-
[spoiler]LMAO I WAS GONNA INTRO MONARCH AS A PROJECT AS WELL xD [/spoiler] "Monarch..." Derek walked towards the Titan, placing his hand upon its mechanical leg "It's incredible... Truly." Derek said, taking a step back and taking the Titan in "How did you manage to develop it!?" Derek asked, turning to look at Kotch

Edited by A Stormy Dio: 6/22/2017 4:21:13 AM[spoiler]LMAO XD[/spoiler] "The Illusive Man never said. Only mentioned spare parts from Typhon, along with quite a bit of secret dealings was all I got from him." Kotch had said. "Yeah; Cerberus has already started mass producing them. This just so happens to be the first one created for our project." The soldier said. "So far, only 25 were made. And they're all being sent in to sabotage Cerberus ships...except this one. This one? It's yours. Consider it a gift." Kotch had said, as an engineer attached a new battery to the mech, powering it up. "We also added some AI that loves to remind us about tea every 4 in the afternoon and likes to be called Jeeves." The engineer said, getting off the mech as it powered up. "Try it out." Kotch says, the door opening to allow Derek inside.
-
"Before I do, I'd like to extend an offer. I'll send schematics for Titans that we have. You can start producing Titans for your crew, for Cerberus. For whatever."
-
"Agreed. In return, I could provide the plans for the Monarch Titan back to you." He says, working with his Omni-tool to send it. "Test the Titan out; play with it. I'll go ahead and call all your forces to here. Just give us the signal when to invade and I'll have the Mons open the wormhole to there. All the ships can jump there instantly." Kotch had explained.
-
"We won't invade today. Tomorrow. Once they begin to think that the Cease-fire will last, and once more troops are on Harmony." Derek climbed into the Titan's cockpit, looking at Kotch
-
"Right. By that point, the Illusive Man's agent should be recovered with Vasquez, and the majority of Cerberus and IMC forces should be here." Kotch had said. "Now...let's see how this goes." He says, getting out of the way of the monarch Titan. The hatch to the Titan closed, as the Titan powered up. A scan took place. "Welcome, Vice Admiral McKeon. Tea time is in two hours. I am Jeeves, your personal AI for this mission." The British voice had begun to say inside the Titan.
-
"Hello Jeeves. What are the mission directives and parameters?" Derek asked calmly, taking a step back and forward to insure the Titan was working
-
"Mission directives including testing the M-1 in all basic functionalities for a Titan before mass production can begin, as well as all capabilities of the Titan before being sent into a combat setting." Jeeves had stated, the Titan seemingly working at almost mint condition.
-
"Walking is a check." Derek brought the Titan down into a crouch
-
"Objective One complete. Now activating New Objective." Jeeves kindly said, before the hangar doors opened, revealing the vast rock that was Anedia. Across the area, Cerberus people in space suits were there, mining as much as they could, alongside pirates. In the distance, the Mons and the IMC ships could be seen. Light snow fell over the area. "Please move to the designated area for weapons and core training." The AI explained, a waypoint marked about 700 meters from his position.
-
"Understood..." Derek walked forward with the Titan, headed towards the Marker. He fired a few premature rounds into the air to make sure everything was in working condition [spoiler]Do we Timeskip through this? Since I already know this? Or do you want to go through it? [/spoiler]
-
[spoiler]Sure.[/spoiler] [i](After that training...)[/i] "Final Objective; Please return to the hangar as Admiral Kotch has been waiting for you." Jeeves had said, the snow from before falling a little harder.
-
"Understood Jeeves, that was fun!" Derek said, walking back towards the hangar
-
"Quite. Cerberus created the M-1 and subsequent others once the Illusive Man took an interest on Typhon. He recovered as much he could, and began production during the Demeter assault." Jeeves explained. "By the way, it is now tea time." The hangar bay doors opened, revealing Kotch and a bunch of Cerberus generals and soldiers talking amongst one another.
-
"Enter guard mode, monarch. I'll be back." Derek clambered out of the Titan, jumping to the ground and walking towards the group
-
"Yes, Vice Admiral." Jeeves had replied, looking around the perimeter. Kotch notices Derek make his way forward, with both Rotor and Valencio next to the Cerberus Admiral. "So, how's was that giant hunk of beauty?" Valencia asked, Kotch simply smirking.
-
"One hell of a thing, Kotch. I love the upgrading it takes into account." Derek stated, glancing back at Monarch
-
"Well, the Illusive Man always get the most experimental things and comes up with the best results." Kotch had replied, Rotor walking up to him. "Sir, work on the first IMC ship has been complete, sir. 6 more are on the verge of completion, Admiral." The Cerberus lead pilot said in his thick Irish accent. "Good; IMC ships should be jumping here, so get all personnel necessary. Valencio, what's the status of our F-SPAR cannons?" Kotch had assured, before asking the lead weapons expert on his ship. "Sir, there almost done. Should be able to punch through an Alliance dreadnought fine, much less a Militia ship. Or a few." He said, rough hints of an Italian accent in his voice showing. "I guess tomorrow..or whenever we jump to Harmony... is the day humanity knows that the IMC are the true leaders of order and stability, along with Cerberus. You agree...partner?" Kotch asked, his hand up for a potential handshake.
-
"Here's to the future, to change, and to stability through force, through order." Derek shook Kotch's hand, giving a wicked smile to the Admiral
-
"URA!" He yells, as the Cerberus personnel around the hangar repeated after him. Perhaps this may have been the beginning of a friendship between two people who shared a common goal. Perhaps this was all a ploy set up by the Illusive Man to further his own goal of taking the Alliance down piece by piece. Or perhaps... It was the beginning of the end. [spoiler]End. Also, Julia's going after Jade, in case you're wondering.[/spoiler]
