So this is going to follow Ai as she grows up? Thats intresting....and dangerous. Especially if because she has her memories she might never help design the Nadesico. Tell me will this have anything to do with Prince of Darkness or are you just not going to take it that far?

While not a huge Nadesico fan, I have seen and liked it. There is however,very few good fan fiction stories I've read with it.
This not bad, I like the idea. I was not reading for errors, but none stuck out to me on a casual read.
Are your intentions a Akita/Inez match then?

[Kadunta]

@Crim Zephi: Yes, dangerous and problematic. I'm taking an easy way out and making Ai's foster parents and maybe her psychiatrics/psychologists (can't say which one this would be) practically convince her that her past in the future is only her imagination. Asked sufficiently many times "Are you really sure that happened?" she'll start to question her own memories.
Also, she is only five and doesn't know all that many pertinent facts about the future, e.g., nothing about phase transition technology. The biggest problem I see are the aliens she met before teleporting into the complex, but aliens and time traveling are certainly not what Occam's Razor would suggest. Also, for the time being Nergal is not interested in her past.
Her life won't be all that different from the canon one after that point. Maybe her foster parents here are from Nergal, maybe not. The Jovian occupation would be the event to really make her believe the past she remembered was not a fabrication. Until then the story events would be rather close to canon, even if her personality might be a tad different.
Of course, it would be better if it were possible to just place her in another Martian colony to make the chances of her accepting her past prematurely lesser but I don't know if there were any beyond Utopia colony. The twenty something years before the invasion will be for the most part skipped over, so no meeting Akito or her real mother.
I've never seen the movie, and I know a person who is far more enthusiastic about Nadesico than I am curses it to the lowest pits of damnation... so I don't plan on doing watching the movie in the future either. So I'm ignoring it altogether and I most likely won't take the story that far, probably not past the events in Episode 26 (which might in itself be in the epilogue)
@PCHeintz72: I agree with you on the "very few good fan fiction stories" part. As for the pairing, it is possible (and it was one reason I decided to try writing this), but it'll happen only if it turns out feasible.

It was never out loud, but the way they spoke about everything (in my opinion) leads me to believe that there where more.

Thats to bad. Bcause the Movie was KICK ASS! But ya there was a lot of fans that didn't like it. I'll PM you the main reasons why. My opinion? Watch the movie for yourself I almost didn't because a friend of mine said it sucked, but I did anyway and I loved it.
Anyway I look forward to seeing more of this hopefuly soon!
