Sagara Sousuke isn''t your typical high school student. He reads military enthusiast magazines; he responds to questions with "affirmative;" he brings grenades to school in his bag. Though everyone at school takes him for a hopeless military geek, Chidori Kaname thinks there might be something more to him. When their plane is hijacked in the middle of a field trip, Kaname''s instincts will prove correct: Sousuke is an elite, mech-piloting mercenary... and he''s here to protect her!
