Luckily Tsuna managed to survive with little scratches as but Dain was less than pleased and orders him to get some rest while Dain as he left the room to converse with Elesfor. This also prompted Alon to follow after him and help out, mostly as a stand-in for Tsuna as something Alon would have to get used to in case Tsuna were to leave.

"What did he say?" Alon asked Dain who looked upset as he communicated through Dain.

"He still wants our help so I opened a line between him and Memento Mori." Dain sighed as he looked at Alon who was standing by the Doorway into the Mobile Armor. "How's Tsuna?"

Alon was taken aback, Dain had made a rule to constantly refer to one another on their code names when on the field, only calling one another that in Luna Sea.

"Your Freud had just slipped," Alon smiled as Dain's eyes widened in surprise but then burst into a brief laugh. "My bad, it's just I was scared as hell when I heard that Suzaku was shot." Dain smiled back at him.

"It's been a long day after all," Alon shrugged. "As for our close friend he was barely hurt, it seems the Albedo Reflectors did a good job in protecting him."

"Oh yeah I read your report about it," He said showing Alon's immediate report towards it. In it, Alon summarizes what Tsuna had told him what the Hussar is capable of with a high emphasis on the Albedo Reflector and the reliance on Solar Energy.

"I can't say having a Hussar is good news though, given how we don't have the resources to repair and maintain them." He said looking out of the door to see Gabrielle and Marina admiring the Hussar despite the damaged appearance. "I'll need to—"

Their communicators rang, as both of them answered to reveal Memento Mori's voice.

"I had discussed things with Elesfor," Memento Mori said as he sent coordinates to their Mobile Armor. "He'll explain everything you all need to know for our mission, but for now all I can say is that the construction of the Vasi Sakti must be stopped." And with that, he ended the call.

According to Memento Mori, they were to meet up with Elesfor one more time where they would continue to discuss any plans to destroy the Vasi Sakti as the assassination attempt failed. But they would remain in orbit until further notice leaving them to their devices in what to do going forwards.

"I hate it when we get cryptic missions like that," Alon muttered as he remained inside the ReZio as he watched both The Mobile Armor and the Shuttle that Henri was on land while on the ground in the middle of an abandoned airstrip that was thankfully one of the less irradiated and breathable parts of the planet allowing both of them to not only step out without any protection.

Though it did nothing to shrug off this feeling of unease from Alon however.

This feels like a trap, Alon thought as he looked around with a frown. He proceeded to open the cockpit but did his best to show that he was still armed but holding out a sniper rifle, the same rifle that Dain had used in attempting to shoot down the Zhenya, and watched as Dain stepped out of the Mobile Armor with nothing but a handgun but made sure to keep Henri, Tsuna, Gabrielle and Marina in their respective ships.

Not long after a man in a suit stepped out of a building with his hands up in the air.

"Sorry, it took me a while!" He shouted at them as he ran towards them waving his hands.

"Stay where you are!" Alon said, thankfully his voice was masked with a voice changer as he fired a round on his feet causing him to immediately stop.

"That's enough," Dain said aiming his gun at him. "You must be Elesfor Trias correct? I saw you in the conference room earlier with Zhenya Antanov."
