i had also learned that i retained my appearance as renton thurston so good for me i guess i wasn't entirely sure how to feel about that but three years did change me
"orders captain" saki asked as i entered the bridge and sat down in the command chair
"truth" i called
"yes captain" he replied using the title i had taken for myself
"take us wherever we are going first" i said
"understood i'd suggest picking a unit you will be entering a battle" truth said
"it sounds like it is just me" i sighed honestly i didn't care
"i'll take the phenex better to be safe then sorry" i said
"the unit you will be facing collect it's head intact" truth said

"alright phenex let's do this" i said as the gundam's destroy mode activated rushed at the enemy unit pierced the unit's chest with the phenex's hand and ripped out it's other cockpit before kicking it back i turned to the friendly unit and handed the capsule to them gently as i noticed the girl was indeed unconscious
after which i turned and lunged towards the enemy ripping off it's head
"i need this, alright truth what about the body" i asked
"if you could collect that as well it's nerve cables could be helpful in the future" truth responded i nodded
"right i'm returning to the ship" i said as the phenex returned to unicorn mode with the enemy very much defeated as i through the damaged unit over the phenex's shoulder holding it with one hand and the other held the head
"wait" a voice said over comms causing me to stop
"thank you" she said
"i'm doing this to save someone important to me, not to play hero, however i'm glad i could be of assistance" i said as the phenex took flight and landing onboard the akatsuki after dispatching the enemy unit's body onto one of the two carriers
