UMP9Mod(0)UMP9||:Schön! M4 SOPMOD IIMod(0)M4 SOPMOD II||:Oh! ()||:Just then, SOP-II looks outside the warehouse and lets out a joyous yelp. AR15Mod(5)ST AR-15||:M16... M4?! ()||:A familiar figure slowly strolls up to the group with strong lights shining from behind. ()||ClothingUp:With M4 hanging on one arm, she tosses the other escapee onto the ground. UMP45Mod(0)UMP45||:... M16A1BOSS(2)M16A1||:...All taken care of. ()||:She first meets UMP45's eyes and offers her a little wave. +But UMP45 just turns away instantly as if she didn't see the gesture. +M16 doesn't seem all that bothered and simply turns to look at the Commander, who's standing closest to her. ()Commander||:... ()||:The Commander has been staring at her ever since she swaggered into the warehouse. +They look like they have quite a lot to say, but they don't know where to start now that she is standing here in person. M16A1BOSS(2)M16A1||:...Why are you all looking at me like that? ()||:Returning everyone's dumbfounded gaze, M16 shrugs and breaks the ice with a smile. M16A1BOSS(5)M16A1||:Do I have something on my face? M4 SOPMOD IIMod(2)M4 SOPMOD II||:M... M16!! ()||ClothingUp:Awkwardness all forgotten, SOP-II lunges at M16A1. +The latter sidesteps the eager embrace without twitching a single muscle on her face, causing SOP-II to catch nothing but air. M16A1BOSS(2)M16A1||:Who's going to take this little princess off me? Doesn't look like she's about to wake up any time soon. AR15Mod(8)ST AR-15||:...Oh! ()||ClothingUp:ST AR-15 finally shakes herself out of her frozen state of shock and rushes up to take the unconscious M4 from M16. M16A1BOSS(2)M16A1||:She's very weak and will need to sleep for a while. ()Commander||:You... ()||:The Commander, bursting with questions, opens their mouth, but in the end, all the questions just get lodged in the back of the their throat. AR15Mod(5)ST AR-15||:... ()||:ST AR-15 looks up at M16. +Right now, she is physically the closest to her. She just can't fathom why her friend is always like this. +She never fails to pick a timing that makes it hard for people to admonish her whenever she leaves or returns. +Why did she leave them behind? Why did she abandon M4? +...But from the moment she rescued M4, 15 no longer has the right to begrudge her for that. AR15Mod(4)ST AR-15||:...You asshole. ()||:She tightens her grip on M4 and shoots daggers at M16. RO635Mod(2)RO635||:... ()||:RO635 is also staring at M16. +...Like ST AR-15, she is struggling to rein in her raging emotions. +M16 is back. Her return makes RO feel confused, puzzled, suspicious, doubtful. +But all these emotions are overshadowed by joy. She must admit... She is incredibly glad to see M16 again, and she welcomes her wholeheartedly. ()Commander||:...Welcome back. M16A1BOSS(5)M16A1||:Thanks. ()||:Returning the Commander's ambivalent gaze, M16 just smiles faintly. +The smile takes the Commander right back to the original Griffin base two years ago. M16A1BOSS(3)M16A1||:... ()||:...Only when M16's smile turns into a grimace does the Commander return to the present. +Her white hair suddenly looks very strange and jarring. ()Commander||:What on earth... Happened to you afterwards? M16A1BOSS(5)M16A1||:Forget it... It's not worth mentioning. ()||:Surrounded by the AR Team, M16 walks up to the Commander. ()||ClothingUp:She looks at the Commander and puts a hand on their shoulder. M16A1BOSS(5)M16A1||:Thank you for everything. ()Commander||:... ()||:The Commander takes a deep breath. ()Commander||:Welcome home. M16A1BOSS(2)M16A1||:... ()||:M16 chuckles awkwardly at the Commander's open arms, but still goes in for a hug obligingly. +She lets go after a brief moment. M16A1BOSS(5)M16A1||:To be honest... I'm really not used to this. M4 SOPMOD IIMod(2)M4 SOPMOD II||:M16! I want a hug too!! M16A1BOSS(2)M16A1||:Uh... Hold on, you're heav... RO635Mod(2)RO635||:(Sobs) ()||:RO635 can't hold herself back any longer and also wraps her arms tightly around M16 as well. AR15Mod(5)ST AR-15||:... ()||:Watching her two friends, ST AR-15 takes a deep breath, as if to steel herself for some kind of embarrassment. M16A1BOSS(5)M16A1||:What... Not you too? You're not the type for this kind of thing... No, wait! This is getting too heavy! AR15Mod(8)ST AR-15||:I don't care. You deserve it. M16A1BOSS(2)M16A1||:Wait... Tsk! ()||:Watching the AR Team all squeezed in a tight embrace, the Commander lets out an amused chuckle. +...There are still a lot of questions they want to ask, but right now, for both the Commander and the AR Team, nothing matters more than this precious moment spent together with friends.

NPC-Rudolf(1)Oberstein0,-100||:...Of course. +It will be exceptionally bright and dazzling... We will make sure the whole world gets to see the amazing spectacle tonight. ()???||:Alright. ()||AVG_tele_disconnect:After the call, Oberstein puts out the cigar. He rises from his chair and turns around to look out the window. +With a commanding view over half of Berlin, he silently beholds its splendor.
