Camilla sat next to the leaders of the AEUG, it was clear to them that it was going to be an upward battle.

<font color="teal">"Princess, it's a pleasure as usual."</font> Said one of the men as she took her seat.

<font color="gold">"The same goes for you Mr..."</font>

<font color="teal">"Henricks, we only met once before, so don't worry about it."</font>

<font color="gold">"No one has really had time to prepare, why do you think they called this so quickly?"</font>

<font color="teal">"To most of them, it's a shock the colonies could muster so much force, they probably want to get this war started quickly so they can mount an attack on the colonies before anyone starts asking questions about those who aren't affiliated with Colonial Axis. Simply stated, they like things "black and white"." </font>

<font color="gold">"So may I assume that you'll be speaking on colonies' rights?"</font>

<font color="teal">"If I may assume you'll be pleading for your country's neutrality."</font>

Camilla smiled gently at the older man and nodded. She could tell he was trying to be charming, but for a girl of her age, the 48-year-olds attention was slightly uncomfortable.

<font color="navy">"Order!"</font> Called the moderator, who was wearing an OZ uniform. <font color="navy">"We are gathered here today as representatives of the Earth in a time of crisis under the invitation of the Earth Federation and the Organiztion Zodiac. Hence, we ask that the Representative of the former come forward and make his case."</font>

Camilla's eyes narrowed, she had a rough idea of what the Federation's stance was, but she still feared hearing it.
