Unknown Agent, Codenamed "Watchtower"
Overlooking the Mombassa Space Elevator

The flash of lightning and loud clap of thunder was the only thing in people's minds in the large city of Mombassa, but for this agent, a covert spy for the Imminent Storm terror group. The sound of heavy rain was the one thing hiding the person from notice, even by outlying Mombassa city police.
The Agent's phone rang as the sound of thunder was heard. This individual pulled the phone out and pressed the accept button.
"Watchtower, it's time to pull back. Tomorrow, we begin our final operation."
"Are you so certain that you want to attack now? You seem too cocky with these recent attacks lately..." The agent smiled.
"I am confident that there isn’t a man alive that can stop us now. Not the Entente, not the Tokyo Pact, not even those blasted Germans!"
“Suit yourself then, I’ll meet you at the rendezvous point as promised.”
The man on the other end hung up, and Watchtower smiled before closing his cellphone. The agent gave a slight chuckle before looking up into the dark, cloudy skies. "Hmph, let's see how this plays out."

Major General Hans Fritze

General Fritze was walking down the hallway, carrying a manila file folder under his arm as he saw soldiers either training or walking by to where they needed to go. Walking down the hallway, he turned, making a left down another hallway before coming to a door at the very end. The aged man looked stern, and at his age, was a man known for being serious. First knocking on the door, the man awaited Major Vespertania to respond to the knocking, so he could hand her the mission specs for the current insurgency in space and the 101st involvement in the matter.

Captain Anastasie Janvier d’Senegal

Anastasie was lying down on the bed in her quarters at the foot of the Space Elevator. In a few minutes, she would be heading up the tether, moving up several hundred miles up to just outside Earth Orbit to take part in Counter Insurgency Operations.
She sighed, annoyed with the whole debacle. She knew that they would be going into a trap, goading this “Imminent Storm” in to attack us, but it was just a waste of time and resources sending in a Gundam to do a job the Colombian Army could do. But with their national insurgency they have going on, it would make sense…
Someone was knocking on the door, with someone speaking in Spanish before he then spoke in English. “Senorita Janvier, you are requested by General La Pointe, right away.”
“Ah, the old General…I wonder how that blowhard’s been doing.” She muttered to herself as she got herself off the bed and began to look for her class alpha uniform. This was going to be a long day indeed.
