Overview:
The
Mithril Soldiers are a special forces team with no peer,
dedicated to stopping terrorism and protecting the defenseless.
However, they face their most imposing task yet in uncovering
the secrets of an experimental project, which somehow
involves the young Kaname Chidori. Three agents are
given the task of watching over and shadowing Kana -
and it may be something that changes all of them forever.
Some
Characters of Note:
Sagara
Sousuke: One of Mithril Soldiers' most efficient
agents, Sagara is an expert at piloting the M9 mechanical
unit as well as in a variety of other military skills.
He is elected to be Kana's primary (albeit undercover)
protector - however, for unknown reasons, he is
ignorant of much of everyday society's practices,
something which hinders him from blending in. Sagara
almost never exhibits any type of emotion.

Weber
Kurtz:
Weber is a suave, laid-back young man who seems
unsuited to a military organization like the Mithril
Soldiers. However, he is just as skilled as anyone
else, despite his tendancy to chase a pretty skirt.
Weber and Sagara are somewhat close friends, but
Weber tends to butt heads quite often with Melissa,
the only woman that he doesn't try to hit on. Weber
is also able to pilot the invisible M9 units without
skipping a beat.

Kaname
Chidori:
A young and beautiful girl, Kaname is the envy
of the other girls and the object of admiration
for the boys of her high school. As class representative
and in many other things, Kana is a natural leader.
She is unaware of the Mithril Soldiers' mission
as well as Sagara's assignment, thinking Sagara
quite strange for his attitude towards her. Kana's
significance to the "Whisper" experiments
is still as of yet unknown, although the mission
to protect her obviously belies her importance.

Melissa
Mao: The highest ranking among the agents
designated to protect Kana from harm, Melissa
is an aggressive, strong-willed person who is
determined to fulfill the mission objectives.
Her strict, strait-laced attitude sometimes puts
her at odds with Weber, and the two often exchange
words. However, as a member of the Mithril Soldiers,
she is far from letting a few petty arguments
get in the way of being able to complete her mission.
