She'd been chosen to co-lead a team in the Rift. Her. Leifite, a Captain. This was the time to prove herself to the Sovereigns and her loyality to Metallia, as well as her leadership skills. She was paired with General-King Jet, which made this all the more impressive. His office was rather comfortable and almost... mundane. If you didn't know you were in the Rift, you'd think he simply faced a neon sign with the light from Negaspace muted by the curtains. It was very nice, and made her want an office herself.
She sat perfectly in the chair, legs crossed and hands in her lap. Not a hair was out of place. She was the the model agent in this moment.
"Absolutely," she said, no hesitation in her voice. She'd been waiting for this moment her entire career, and she was not going to let it slip through her fingers because she had a bit of nerves. "I am, of course, very thankful for this opportunity to lead a team on this mission. I will not fail you."
Perhaps a little thick on the deference, but this was a General-King she was talking to. Leifite would not take any chances for him to think her unfit or weak or ungrateful for this.

"Of course sir," she said, taking a breath. Right, breathing was a thing she had to do. Helped her seem less nervous or severe too. Leifite brought a hand to her chin in thought. No, she'd been down in Negaspace there for a few tournaments, when they were still doing those, but not the Rift proper. Needed permission and all, and it seemed silly to devote time to the Rift when there were patrols and order scum to fight in the city. Hm, so she supposed the last mission into the Scar was her first time in it directly then.
"Hmm, no I've been in Negaspace before - when we did those tourneys a few years ago - but the Scar was the first mission going into the Rift," she said with a nod. Leifite frowned and leaned forward a little. "How did a whole area of the Rift just... change? And how different is it now?"
There were many things she knew Metallia and youma could do, but changing an entire area of bedrock and crystal? That seemed... concerning.

He knew that she must have been nervous, so he didn’t press her for more on what she’d told him. Instead, he leaned back a little in his chair, arms crossed comfortably over his chest as he tried thinking of more information than what she already heard.
“The Chaos energy in the Rift is pure and untamed. It’s why the youma thrive there, but it makes everything else incredibly unstable. It’s dangerous to go in without adequate research and planning. And even more dangerous for Senshi, since their auras would attract the youma. So you’ll want to make sure the Senshi on our team are protected in case youma show up,” Jet explained.
“As for how different the Scar is now… What General Faustite described is as much as I know about the area,” he admitted. He was trusting Faustite to give them the information they needed, without going in on his own. And without the help of Arles.
“We’ll want to make sure everyone removes loose pieces of clothing before we rappel down to where the building was discovered,” he continued after a moment. “If they don’t do it on their own, we’ll need to make sure the Senshi have their hair cut short. Agents with blades may need to assist. Everyone should be bringing a flashlight, first aid kit, emergency food rations…”

Leif nodded as Jet spoke. Short hair for the senshi, keep all the excess clothing contained for everyone. It all made sense and seemed reasonable. Rations and flashlights definately sounded key; from what she remembered from last time, it was dark and a barren wasteland.
She considered the make up of the team for a moment. "We should pair Niter and Miyamoto with Andesine and Zunyite, respectively. That way both pairs have some one who is specialized for combat, and gives an agent to each senshi. They're lieutenants, but I think it will be a good experience for them. We can act as back up for either pair." The idea seemed sound enough to her; since they had two senshi and two agents, other than Jet and Leifite themselves, it made sense to pair one of each together. The senshi were Super, yes, but if the agents were of the right mindset, they'd work well together.
"Anything else I should know?" she said, ready to start the process and get the show on the road.
