"Baby Series 3"

Silent Support

"The new security protocols for the approach to the manor are an improvement."

Pagan set aside the report he had been reviewing and inclined his head. "It should be sufficient. If there should be trouble it will no longer happen near the house. The range on the sonic emitters is, as yet, unknown and I doubt anyone intending to meddle will chance being caught in the range of effect… and we have other defences. The greatest threat is the Assembly building."

"She is extraordinary, isn't she?"

"Any doting brother would think so." The old man grinned at the tilt of a pale eyebrow. "However, in this case, it is a truth no one can deny. The Princess is indeed remarkable."

"She is not as calm as she is pretending. Yesterday shook her and I want no repeat incidents to further distress her. She has enough stress over the next few days without having to deal with security breaches."

"The security detail for the House of Representatives are cooperating with our people. It would appear that they do not wish to have you assassinated on their watch."

"I can not say I fancy being assassinated any more than they wish to be inconvenienced by awkward questions on their inefficiency."

Relena greeted Heero with a smile that held nothing of her emotions back, and the normally sober looking young man could only respond with a rare smile of his own. She was dressed in a powder blue pants suit emblazoned with the crest of the House of Peacecraft on the lapel and looked the epitome of a young professional. In little more than thirty minutes they would be on their way to the House of Assembly where she would formally announce to the House of Representatives that she resigned her commission.

For that announcement Milliardo intended to be present to give her whatever silent support and comfort she would take from it. At the very least if he was present most of the hostile looks would be directed at him and she would be spared the focus of their enmity.

"Do you think she still has doubts, Pagan?"

"About taking on the position of Peace Ambassador? No, sir, I do not. She is a strong young woman and extremely intelligent and has dedicated herself to improving conditions across the Earth Sphere. Her government position has limitations, banning her from entering some politically sensitive regions of the Earth and colonies. Being removed from that association will give her a great deal more freedom to act. If she should have any further doubts, the first six months of her tenure as Peace Ambassador will settle them. Her influence will soon enough be felt."

"Some might not like that."

"Indeed, sir, but it is my job to ensure they can do little more than express their discontent verbally. Your sister will be well protected."
