Merel hurried to get her gear and as she got into the cockpit she shouted to the crew still working on mounting her missile loadout to double time it. they had heard the announcement too and their own orders had also come through, this craft was to be spaceworthy in less than an hour. from the cockpit Merel went through the systems, runnings tests and finalizing the updates to her OS as the engineers and mechanics went over the exterior to make sure it would work acordingly with no atmosphere. The armor of the Mobile suit could fare well against the punnishment of combat but the engineers who designed it could not neglect to prepare the craft for the enviromental problems of space operations. There was plenty in space to mess up the joints or weapon connections but thankfully with years and years of preperations for space travel it now was just a matter of following protocol for the techies to ensure the Murasame would fly in the void.

As the programs ran through their automated checks Merel mentally prepared for the first mission as a member of the newly formed team Sigma. It was a varied bunch of pilots, that at least was certain, and they all had their own style. A sniper with a very agile Mobile suit, a jack of all trades with plenty of firepower, a simplistic but rather intimidating looking close range brawler and finally her own Razgriz, capable of bombing a target into the stoneage or split them open with beam rifle or saber in close quarters. Merel already imagined she would be sent all over the battlefield to help out whoever was in trouble, with the speed of her craft and the varried loadout she would be able to provide support fast all over.

Eventually all preperations had been completed and her Razgriz was fully tested and ready for combat. Merel taxied the jet from the working area towards the exit, lining it up behind faye's custom Flag. The Murasame was noticably bulker than the Flag even though they were albout the same size both in MS and MA modes. The flag was clearly designed for agility while the Murasame had more firepower as its key word during design.

"Looks like we are about ready to go." she called out over the radio. A thought occured to her and she added "Should we be expecting trouble?"
