Commander Markos was surprised when he saw the footage of the humanity's first true victory, no death, and they deal massive damage, and what's more, they manage to get a lot of spoils of war.
Markos forgot how many times he has watched the footage, and he couldn't help grinning every time.
But every time he thinks of negotiating with Dianna he can't help frowning. So instead he sent vice-admiral Sheila Jones and Lisa.
They were the ones originally assigned as a liaison of GFA to negotiate with Grand Trading and this time they want a lot of Drones especially the Shield and weapons.
Unfortunately for them Dianna wasn't just dealing with them anymore, The Coalition also wants those Drones, Shields and the weapons and with the materials Dianna gets as payments from GFA she won't have any problem of material shortage anytime soon.
When Sheila and Lisa went to Grand Trading HQ in Liberty Dianna was in a meeting with the representative of the Coalition. And The Coalition is a lot richer than GFA or even all humanity superpowers combined. After all the Coalition is made up of many alien forces. And their territory is huge, so they have many resource planets under them.
And this time the Coalition wants to cooperate with Grand Trading they want grand trading to become part of the Coalition but Dianna refused and wants to maintain their neutral stands against all defending forces.
The Coalition offered Dianna many things, but she remains passive so the Coalition couldn't do anything but to trade with Grand Trading. Like any other forces.
Sheila and Lisa were surprised when they saw the Coalition representative in Dianna's office Nevertheless they waited in the next room until Dianna was done dealing with the Coalition representative. 30 minutes later the Coalition representative left. And Dianna goes to be with Sheila and Lisa who were waiting.
"Vice-admiral, and Lisa. What brings you here? Sorry for the wait.' Said, Dianna.
"No worries were the ones who came unannounced." Said Sheila.
"So what brings you here?" Dianna Asked.
Of course, Dianna already guests why, but she still asked just to be polite.
"Well, you can already probably guess why we're here. GFA wants more weapons, drones and Shields." Said Lisa.
"I see," Dianna frowned.
Sheila saw it and asked. "Is it the coalition?"
"That's right, they ordered a lot and since we already signed the contract. You have to wait until theirs are done." Said, Dianna.
Sheila frowned, "is there any other way?"
"I told you guys the first time, better order more since we have a lot of costumers, unlike before that you guys are our only buyer. Now we have a lot." Said, Dianna.
"Sighs, let me talk to my superiors." Said Sheila.
"Go ahead I don't think it will change anything though." Said, Dianna.
"20 minutes later Sheila is back. I have my superiors on the line they want to talk with you" said Sheila.
"Sure," said Dianna.
Lisa put down some device and the hologram of all the top elders of GFA was displayed.
"Hello CEO Dianna. My name is ***** I'm one of the elder of GFA is there a way to take our order first?"
"Sighs, Elder ***** I'm afraid it's not going to be easy as we already sign a contract with Coalition."
"So if we go with the order normally how long before we receive our orders?" Said one of the elders.
Dianna thinks for a bit. And said. "The soonest one year the latest 2 years."
"That's too long! Where all humanity here can't you reconsider?" Said another elder.
When Markos and the rest heard it they frown. But didn't say anything. Dianna saw the one who has spoken and recognize him. He was an HFA representative to GFA.
"I'm sorry who are you?" Asked Dianna even though she already knows.
"I'm ***** an elder from HFA."
"I see said Dianna, you said we're all humanity but how long have HFA been oppressing the Earth the birthplace of humanity for? Are they not part of your so-called humanity?" Said Dianna with a cold voice.
When the elder heard it he frowned. "We're not talking about Earth!"
"You're not, but I am!" Said, Dianna. She looks at the elder straight from the eyes and said. "So are they not part of your so-called humanity?"
The elder gnashed his teeth but didn't reply.
"What's wrong? Did I ask a wrong question?" Said, Dianna.
"Alright we're getting out of topic, are we not talking about ordering?" Said another elder with an annoyed voice.
Dianna looks at them with a cold-looking face and said. "Not anymore! You will get your order after were done with everything else if you don't like it go buy somewhere else. Goodbye!"
The elders were stunned even Markos and Sheila were stunned only Lisa remains calm like she was expecting it. She knows Dianna temperament above anyone else in this room she knows Dianna is far more Hardass than Arc ever was.
And before any elder could react Dianna already turn around and was leaving.
Markos immediately reacted and said. "Miss Dianna, please don't do this lets talk again."
"Dianna stop walking and turn around, and said "my Boss like you a lot commander so ill give you another chance. Here's my conditions, first I want the HFA space station second, I want all HFA forces and business on earth removed and lastly, I want HFA to never ever step on earth again. Do that and I prioritized your order ill even give you a huge discount." Said Dianna smiling.
It looks like a beautiful smile but to the elders it was a she-demon smile especially to the representative of HFA.
"After all were all part of humanity I just want humanity to be freed from being oppressed." She then looks at the elder from HFA. "It's a small condition, after all, like you said it was all for humanity."
Markos sighs, he knows there no more changing her mind. So he looks at the Elder from HFA, in fact, he wasn't the only one looking but all the other elders.
"No! That's impossible..." Said the elders form HFA.
"So I guess people from the earth are not part of your so-called humanity, unfortunately from you guys Grand Trading is from Earth. Were done here! you'll get your orders when I deal with everything else. Goodbye gentlemen."
This time Dianna left for good and no one stops her. Sheila and Lisa could only shake their heads.
Sheila left the room and so only Lisa and Tiffa remains.
"Hahaha, Lisa don't be so tensed, relaxed you did your job let just eat some snacks." Said Tiffa.
"You! Sigh. Well, whatever let's eat." Said Lisa.
Dianna returns and just smiles at the two who were at the couch in front of her table eating snacks and drinking tea.
30 minutes later Sheila returned and when she saw the two she was speechless. "You two! What... Darn… sighs… F.u.c.k whatever ill go eat too." So she joins the two eating snacks and drinking tea.
Tiffa giggles. Well, no offense to you both but some of your elders are D.i.c.ks and assholes. Said Tiffa while eating snacks.
"None taken, we don't like them too, but we don't have a choice we were working for them after all." Said Sheila.
"Then why don't you quit your job and work for us instead!" Said Tiffa.
The two looks at Tiffa for a few seconds seeing her serious face Sheila said: "you serious?"
"Of course."
