Chapter 34: Chapter 33
POV Eiling
Eiling had awoken with a start. "What the hell?" he said confused.
"Hello Eiling you really should have kept your head down." Amanda wall said as she stepped into the room.
"I was serving my country. Those super freaks are menaces that need to be controlled." Eiling responded. "Now let me up, Waller."
Waller smirked. "Not just yet. You failed yet again, so ordinarily someone as incompetent as you would have been properly disposed of. But in your stupidity, you took the Captian Nazi serum. Now, you have become a little more useful to me alive than dead."
"What?! What the hell do you mean?" Eiling yelled.
"Welcome to task force x." Waller said before turning around and leaving the room.
POV Waller
"Get Deadshot, Plastique, Bloodsport, Vertigo, and Boomerang. I have a job for them." Waller ordered.
(I was leaving Morganrote alone but the stupid kid made an enemy of the goverment with Fury reluctant to go after him I've been given the ok) She thought smugly already seeing herself gain access to his technology.
POV ????????
"The government is making another move." Voice 1 said over the phone
"Works in our favor," Voice 2 said
"Agreed," replied Voice 3, "Our organizations may not always see eye to eye, but together, while the 2 fights, we can get the prize."
POV Mike
"You know I hate being up here, kid." Wolverine grumbled. Mike had summoned him at the last second to the space station, saying he had a gift for him.
Mike chuckled it was a conversation they had before. " I know Logan, but this is important." Mike was leading him to the mobile suit hangar.
"You know I don't like piloting these things." Logan reminded him.
"I know. I know you are a brawler, not a pilot, but I have a good compromise." Mike responded, leading him to a new suit standing still in one of the maintenance bays. "Let me introduce you to the Lumber Gundam."
Logan looked at him. "Are you not listening? It's a nice suit, but I won't just sit in a cockpit."
Mike sighed. " Logan, would you trust me already? This suit is different. There is only 1 similar suit in Morgonrote at this time."
" What makes it so special?" Logan asked.
"The cockpit is equipped with a mobile trace system. put on the suit and the Mobile suit mirrors your movments." Mike explained
"So I get in this tin can, and it will match my movements?" Logan clarified.
"Exactly for a brawler or martial artist, this system would be especially effective." Mike nodded.
"Fine, but if I don't like it, I get to leave it here." Logan grumbled. "What happened with the clones?"
Mike sighed "I wanted to bring in a team of psychiatrists, Phsycologists and Therapists to help them as well as telepaths to get rid of any programs buy the current situation with the goverment has made that difficult."
"I'll bet." Logan responded."So what are you keeping them on ice?"
Mike noticed an undercurrent in his tone. (Big softy doesn't like kids to suffer even if it's for their own good.) Mike thought before responding. "No, the league has actually been rather helpful. One of their heroes, Black Canary, is formally trained in psychology and is working as their therapist. For now, the kryptonians are confined to the red sun rooms, but X 23 is making significant progress and has the run of the station so long as she is supervised."
Logan nodded. "You can't keep those kids in the red sun room forever. You realize that."
Mike thought a moment before talking. "All 3 are making progress, Superboy should be ready in a few days to come out monitored. Galatea on the other hand will be at least next week before she is ready if what Canary says is accurate."
Logan nodded. "I get it where the Martians able to remove any programming?"
Mike frowned "Yeah they got rid of quite a lot actually. The orders in their heads ranged from absolute obedience to killing themselves if captured. Whoever did this to them was one messed up asshole."
Mike then told Logan where to find X23 and let him wander off. Walking to the monitor, he viewed an ongoing training exercise involving the Rouge, Blitz, and Nu gundams. He couldn't shake the feeling that this was the calm before the storm.
Moke then moved on to see the progress on the construction of Heliopolis. Now that he announced the formation of Orb, he intended to use heliopolis as the civilian area and keep his current station as a military installation.
Heliopolis would have farms, businesses, schools, and everything else needed to function self sufficiently. In addition, some of the more non classified projects would be civilian run. While on the current base that Mike decided to name Zaft he would have mobile suit development, weapon development, ship development, and training for his military. He had plans to create a 3rd station around his resources he was going to designate Foundry.
Mike was looking at a variety of government styles and laws to get an idea of what he wanted.
"The US was meant to be a haven for the downtrodden and cast off." Mike spoke outloud, "How much talent is wasted because of racism bigotry and greed? I want to make my nation what the US should have been, a haven where all are welcome so long as they want to better themselves."
"Sounds kind of idealistic, but I like it." Kitty said, walking into the room.
"Thanks, I was thinking of a constitutional monarchy as the framework for the government." Mike explained, "90% of the time the parliament would be in charge running day to day, but in times of emergency or if they overstep their bounds then I would be able to step in and take control. On the other hand, they would also have the ability to veto me if I got out of control."
"What about a judicial system? Laws, Law Enforcement?" Cassandra asked walkong into the room. "Also, we are in space. How are you going to get people up here? Immigration policy? These things have to be thought of, or we could wind up bringing people we don't want up here, such as crime syndicates, terrorists murderers, and others who would do nothing more than harm our country. I'm not saying we shouldn't be willing to accept people, but you have to balance that and the safety of your country."
Mike acknowledged this with a nod. "I agree while a persons race or species will not be grounds for refusal, their actions might. I will talk with a few lawyers I know about looking into drafting a constitution that would give us a base of laws to build off of."
"Are only humans able to be citizens?" Megan asked as she walked in as well seeing everyone else there.
"No any species is welcome so long ad they agree to abide by our laws and regulations." Mike awnsered. "I have also determined a number of departments that are to be established.
1. Parliament to make laws and decisions concerning the country.
2. Judicial system to enforce these laws
3. Military for defense of the nation from outside threats will consist of 3 subdepartments
a. Air forces both atmospheric and space based
b. Navy to handle ocean operations
c. Army to handle ground operations
4. Intelligence department to monitor other nations actions and to run counterintelligence to prevent other countries from learning all or our secrets.
5. Medical to oversee all aspects of the medical field and ensure that certain standards are met.
6. Agricultural to oversee our farms and food supply
7. Immigration to oversee the immigration into out nation
8. Treasury to manage the finances
9. Education to oversee the schools
These will be the basis to form our goverment."
"That's alot jave you determined who will be in chargenof any of those departments?" Kitty asked.
"Brand will be in charge of the air and space forces she has proven herself competent and I trust her." Mike responded. "You three" refering to Kitty, Cassandra, and Megan, "Will be advisors to me, I need people around me that will be able to tell me no or advise me if what I'm doing is a bad idea."
The three girls nodded, they were becoming rather fond of him and wanted to get closer. None where ready to admit their growing feelings yet though.
Mike continued, "I have contacted Jennifer Walters, Matt Murdock, and Hank McCoy, all three have extensive knowledge of laws 2 of them are lawyers and Hank served in congress as a representative on mutant affairs. I have asked them to come here and help provide a framework for us to build on." Mike then surprised them. "I have been in contact with Genosha."
"Magneto is a madman!" Kitty exclaimed.
"I agree the man started out noble but lost his way." Mike stated simply.
"Then why did you contact him?" Kitty asked clearly upset.
"I didn't, he contacted me." Mike responded. "He remembered me protecting Xavier's school. When he heard I was establishing my own nation he wanted to know what my stance on mutants would be."
"He is a criminal!" Cassandra stated.
"So is Dr Doom. However as the head of a recognized nation we must treat him as such when he is acting in that capacity." Mike reminded her.
Megan had less interaction with him and thus brought the conversation back to the core of the issue. "So what did he want?"
"They are having a population problem, He was wondering if we had room for mutants who seek sanctuary." Mike said. "I told him yes and invited him to send a representative on the condition that the person they sent understood that everyone in Orb is equal no discrimination will be allowed. His representative should arrive soon and will be treated like an ambassador. I'm not saying trust him but we need to look at things carefully. He is the leader of a nation would you turn away a representative from Mars? From the US?"
