LYDIA DEETZ AND FULLMETAL PANIC

Capítulo 4: First impression

A new day was dawning and a small motor boat was headed for the open sea. The two occupants of the tiny vessel wore military garments and shivered in the morning cold.

"How much further is missing, Sousuke?" asked Utis Otonashi "the iron" to the young man behind him, who was directing the direction of the engine.

"We are already at the assigned site, we will soon see the TDD-1."

From the ocean depths, a very large submarine was emerging that pulled a shocking whistle at Utis.

"I've read classified reports about TDD-1, but seeing it in person is a very different matter. What a big ship, I'm sure your captain is trying to make up for something, you understand? Hey, huh? You understand... try to make up for something."

Sousuke, who didn't understand the jokes very well, didn't understand anything and only managed to make Utis sigh with frustration.

Inside the TDD-1, Teletha Testarossa, captain of the giant submarine , was running joyfully to Lydia's room. In the end they had to let the ship's artificial intelligence command the NATO spy rescue operation, everything went perfectly and no one from Mithril was killed.

"Lydia, Lydia! The operation was all..."

Tessa's face froze and then the tiny captain stepped back and closed the door as quietly as she could.

"I didn't know those two were more than friends," thought Tessa, as she turned as red as a tomato. "I'd better tell them the good news when they're awake."

Tessa had to recover quickly as Mardukas called her by the ship's intercom, apparently the last member of Mithril's crew to return had arrived and with him, the famous "the iron".

Tessa rushed to a private room where Mardukas and Kalinin were already sitting in front of the spy.

Tessa sat in the middle of her two subordinates and introduced herself formally.

"Wait that I'm slow, you mean, you're the captain of this mercenary ship? How old are you, 12? Or do you think you're the captain of Nadesico?"

"Mr. Otonashi, show more respect!" Mardukas, who as always was very overprotective of Tessa, scolded him and Kalinin frowned, as did Tessa.

"And who are you supposed to be, mister?" Utis cut him with a mocking smile, "you seems to have come out of a manga full of clichés, don't tell me you're the vice principal of the school of this loli."

"What did you call me! My name is Teletha Testarossa, I am sixteen years old and I am the captain of the TDD-1."

This time Utis looked carefully at Tessa and then observed the look on the two older men's faces next to the girl, there seemed to be no deception.

"Well, as I once heard: "Excellence has no age". However, with that look, Captain Testarossa, you looks like a little girl from elementary school, does that mean you fall into the category of "fake loli"?"

This time it was Kalinin who reacted and rose menacingly, while poor Tessa was like a stone, as was Mardukas.

"The old man in the cap doesn't look like a fighter, but the guy with the beard and ponytail is something else," Utis thought at lightning speed. "He looks old, but also muscular and energetic, so I'd better stop bullshitting and get serious."
