Discovered

Mike managed to get back to Morganrote without issue. Entering the hangar so that the Gundam Marine Type could get repaired.

As he entered Shuuji stood in the doorway with his arms crossed. Mike exited the cockpit to hear him say. "So much for keeping a low profile for now."

"I was trying." Mike responded. " but I could not just stand by while people were in danger."

Shuuji nodded. "I get it, I do, I'm glad you stepped in but you need to realize that you just put a target on your back."

Mike nodded. "They will try to find out who I am right?"

"And it won't be that hard." Shuuji responded. He then pointed to the GN drive showing on the back of the suit. "Might as well have put an advertisement out stating who you were."

Mike nodded. "I didn't think about that."

"Start making plans we may need to make a quick exit." Shuuji said simply. He then continued, "We have had another issue." He pointed behind him and I looked to see Raven looking at the hangar. Her normally blank expression no where to be seen as she stared at the three massive robots in amazement.

'Maybe the system is smarter than I thought' Mike thought to himself. 'Raven would be perfect for the Knight Gundam.'

POV Raven

Rachel Roth woke up with a start she was staring at a unfamiliar ceiling. As the memories rushed back she cried a little she had almost given up on finding a safe place from her father. After a few minutes she stood up and left her new room. As she began to explore she saw Shuuji get in an elevator. Curious she attempted to follow.

The elevator was locked and she couldn't access it. "Azereth Metreon Zenthos." She whispered and a short burst of magic opened the door enough for her to float down the elevator shaft. Ash she attempted to sneak out of the elevator sh heard a voice.

"You really should have asked." Shuuji leaned against the wall watching her.

"I'm sorry I was just..." She began.

"Save it." Shuuji said holding up his hand. "It's not a big deal anyway. I figured you would find all this out eventually. Mike probably expected it when he invited you to stay. I'll let him do the explaining."

Raven nodded. "Thank you, I won't betray your trust."

"I know," He responded. "Come on Mike should be back soon." Pausing he turned back and said gravely " He's a good man, betray him and no amount of magic will save you."

He then walked down the hall to a door opening it Raven saw two massive suits standing in a gigantic hangar. As she stood in amazement a third blue suit came in through the hangar door.

POV Mike

As Mike approached Raven he thought about what he was going to say. Before he could speak she said.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to pry but I was just curious about that elevator." She looked apologetic.

Mike shrugged he kind of figured that this would happen. "It's fine, you will keep this a secret right?" His instinct was telling him to trust her.

She nodded. "Of course, you gave me shelter, you protected me and gave me a place to stay. I won't betray your trust."

"Good." Mike said grinning before saying "Want to learn to pilot one?"

"I'm not that good with technology, I prefer magic." Raven began trying not to sound ungrateful.

"That's perfect."Mike said happily. "That one there" he continued pointing to the knight Gundam is tailor made for a magic user."

Timeskip later that day.

"Good think of the suit as an extension of yourself." Mike said happily as he ran through a series of exercises with Raven. He was not sure if the Knight Gundam had a pilot assist or something but Raven was taking to the suit like a bird to water. She was running through the obstacle course with ease maving as if she had piloted the suit for years.
