Aboard the Ahgama, Captain Henken Beckner interviews Camille and AEUG founder Blex Forra. They are delighted to learn that he is the son of the designers of Gundam Mark-II. The Titans are also aware of the possible consequences of Camille's defection and take immediate action to rectify the situation. Layla Myra Layla, a veteran mercenary pilot from the semiautonomous Granada Moon Base, is sent to intercept and destroy the Ahgama. Layla launches her red Galbaldy-Beta (RMS-117) from the Granada battleship Bosnia to attack Quattro's "Red Comet" Rick Dias. The battle ends in a draw when a truce is called between the two forces. Emma Sheen comes aboard the Ahgama to hand-deliver Basque's message to the AEUG crew. She is horrified when she hears the terms of her Titan masters: return Camille and the stolen Mark-IIs or his parents will be executed! Camille overhears these demands and takes off in Mark-II 03 to rescue his mother, who is imprisoned in a life-support capsule midway between the Titan battleship Alexandria and the Ahgama -- but Jared is there in a Hizack (RMS-106) to prevent that very thing. The Titan trap backfires disastrously, however, when the shot meant to disable Camille's Mark-II 03 destroys the capsule instead. Camille goes berserk as he witnesses his mother's death in the vacuum of space. |
