(( //= Beginning of a flashback \\= end of a flashback))
This was it. This was the day that he had known was coming ever since he stepped onto this ship for the first time. He could remember it fairly clearly, the day where he had ceased being a prisoner of Celestial Being, and became a true member of Celestial Being.....

It was strange being allowed to walk free after being in that cell for so long. He didnt mind of course, anything was better just sitting around and rotting really. Besides being led around by the rather attractive captain of the ship, known as Catherine Vayle wasnt so bad either. Now it wasnt like he was lusting after the attractive older woman, it was more like how a student would think of a physically attractive teacher. He had no idea what here intentions were either, but he just felt that there was something big going on, something that would free him from that holding cell for good. That he was certain of, or at least believed that enough that it felt sincerely true to him. Either way all he could do was wait and see for now. Soon he found himself sitting and watching the results of his old exploits. He had to admit it was rather painful to watch, now that he wasnt up in a cockpit doing the destroying, and seeing those being destroyed. Seeing that the images managed to reach him the woman stopped the video. And she said those fateful words to him.
"If you could atone for these acts, would you?"
That was all he needed to hear, he immidiately agreed. It was then that she instructed him to follow her once more. She led him to one of the ship's hangars, and that was when he laid eyes on it for the first time. The Gundam Astraea, the tool of his atonement....
\\
Now here he was sitting in that same Gundam in the red pilot suit given to him by Celestial Being. All of the knowledge he gained from training all clicking, giving the cockpit and controls a rather familir and comfortably feeling to him. "Gundam Astraea, activate. Priority Drift Skelter." he said before an infared beam scanned his eyes, confirming his identity. The system suddenly came to life with the various buttons lighting up and the screens revealing what was around him. He proceeded to head to the catapult as he prepared to launch. His Gundam, like the other three would be descending through Earth's atmosphere down to surface, a feat no other mobile suit could achieve, hell aside from the Gundams no mobile suit had been made that could pull off space flight. And luckily the GN Particles would keep the Gundams safe when they descended down to earth.
"Gundam Astraea, launching!!" he shouted before the Astraea shot out of the Euclides. As it emerged and angled itself down toward the earth as the GN particles began to propel it toward earth, all while the Astraea's mask concealed it's face. As the earth got closer and closer he remembered Catherine's speech to him and the other Gundam Meister's moments before launching....

"Today is the day that you fulfill the purpose that you were all chosen for. We had hoped that those down on earth, would be able to handle themselves long enough for the main phase of Aeolia Schenberg's plan to begin. But unsuprisingly their wars have locked them in a downward spiral of destruction, that could very well lead to the permanent crippling of civilization if nothing intervenes. We are the force that will ensure that does not happen. Today you will descend down to Earth to to begin an operation that will result in the end of this war, and stabilize the world long enough for the main phase to begin. When you arrive you must be careful, and be sure that none lay eyes on the faces of the Gundam, the world isnt ready to know about them yet. Anyone who sees them, cannot be allowed to live. You will have allies down below on the earth who will help how they can when they can, and you will be in contact with us, but for the most part you will be on your own. Keep in contact with each other at all times, and be cautious during your operations on Earth."

"Its been a long time since I left, I look forward to doing some actual good down there finally.." he said as he began to enter the atmosphere.
