Turn 32: Huge Project

Flashback to Several Weeks Ago

Mamoru: "Hm? A space shuttle project?"

Ibuki: "Yeah.... I'm thinking about that project after the Gyze incident..."

Mamoru: "I see.... but, how are we going to do that? It's not easy you know?"

Ibuki: "Of course I know that. That's why I'll need some help...."

Mamoru: "I see.... it's because of Chrono, right?"

Ibuki: "Yeah...."

Aichi: (Entered the room) "Hello, Ibuki.... Mamoru!"

Ibuki: "Sendou, you're here..."

Aichi: "Yes, so what should I check there?"

Mamoru: "Check? What do you mean, Aichi?"

Aichi: "Ibuki told me that I have to check something at America..."

Ibuki: "Yeah, I wanted you to check the space program at America.... and gathered all the data...."

Aichi: "Okay, I can do that!"

Mamoru: "Ehm Aichi, it's that going to be tough for you?"

Aichi: "It will be tough but I'll see what I can do..."

Ibuki: "By the way Sendou, you'll be going with someone...."

Aichi: "Hm? Who's that?"

Shion: (Entered the room) "That will be me...."

Aichi: "Shion?"

Ibuki: "Yeah, Kiba will help you gather those data and if it works...."

Shion: "Then, the Kiba Corporation will invest in this project..."

Aichi: "Wow...."

Mamoru: "So you're really serious about this, Ibuki?"

Ibuki: "Yeah.... If everything goes according to plan, it means that I only have to ask a permission from the government left..."

Mamoru: "Now that's going to be tough..... what if they didn't give us the permission?"

Ibuki: "I'll do my very best to make sure that they give us the permission..."

Mamoru: "Okay then...."

Ibuki: "Aichi Sendou.... Shion Kiba.... I'm counting on you both!"

Aichi and Shion: "Yes, sir!"

Ibuki: "You'll go there after the New Year so prepare yourself until then...."

Both Aichi and Shion left the room...

Mamoru: "So if this project is successful, then planet Cray will be the astronauts first destination?"

Ibuki: "It will be the only destination..."

Mamoru: "Is that possible though?"

Ibuki: "It is...."

Mamoru: (Smiling) "Alright then, but it looks like only Chrono right now who has that dream and desire to go to planet Cray..."

Ibuki: (Smirked) "I'm not so sure about that...."

Mamoru: "Eh? What do you mean?"

Ibuki: "As I said before, I had this plan for nearly three years now.... So, I've asked some of the people I know who has a dream of becoming an astronaut and there are a lot of them..."

Mamoru: "Wow! You even did that?"

Ibuki: "Yeah.... even though I did this because of Chrono, doesn't mean that this project is only for his sake... It's for a lot of people as well..."
