Chapter 1 a promise of war
A/n: I owe you guys this! You guys deserve this long and extremely late spin-off story to the Tesla Soldiers series. And thanks to some new mobile suits that came out, I have new material to work with. I did the research in advanced, But I am open to new ideas that I may have missed.
But remember, This isn't a sequel to Tesla Soldiers. It is a spin-off. That means you guys are getting a HUGE surprise.
So I hope that you all enjoy.
LETS GET GOING!
P.s: this story will also be on weekends, Just like goblin slayer: Orphan beast.
-1945, The Autocratic East Europan Imperial Alliance, Midnight-
The sky over the imperial area was quiet, Save for some people walking and talking about still under the moonlight. The day was peaceful as any other night, Then again, It had been peaceful since the end of the second Europa war. Thanks to the Tesla Soldiers, They help not only improve the war to Gallia's favor. But they had created new inventions as well. From a metal gear, To the chimera weapons. And of course, The Diamond dogs and the legendary iron man suit, Now remodeled into the RX-0 Unicron Gundam armored suit.
Gallia and the Empire had made a truce, And they would be fools not to break it, Least they suffer the wrath of the Tesla's once again.
10 years had passed since the imperials invaded Gallia. And unfortunately, Across the continent, The soon to be fires of a new war would come.
Still reeling from the invasion 10 years ago, Gallia now faces a new line of enemy. One from within, And four new faces from the empire. Following the cease fire between Gallia and the imperial alliance, The new archduchess, Cordelia Gi Randgriz, Had chosen to make public her Darcsen heritage. This was also thanks to the Tesla Soldiers also exposing the truth about the Darcsen calamity as well, And the once noble and proud god-like Valkyria, Were shunned and abandoned by all.
But while many respond favorably to her candor, Some do not feel the same. United by their hatred of both the Darcsens and the Teslas, A group in the south of Gallia formed of nobles forms the Gallian Revolutionary Army. They are lead by Baldren and Audrey, Gilbert Gassenarl's former children. Their plan was simple: to purge Gallia of all Darcsen influences.
And so the stage was set; For the Gallian civil war.
As the other people were having fun, A cloaked figure had walked among them. He ignored the stares that some of his own kind were giving him as he made his way to a large noble house and knocked on the door. The door then opened, As another hooded figure was behind it.
"Ah, You made it. You weren't followed, Were you?" The figured questioned.
"No I wasn't" the other figure told "Just the same old stares as useful".
"Good, Good. Come in! We have much to discuss!".
The figure at the door then gave the other figure passage into the house as the door was then closed and locked. In front of the figure were three other figures, Former soldiers of the imperial army of the second Europa war. The figures all then took their hoods down. "Good, We're all here now" one of the figures spoke.
"So? When do we attack?!" One of the other figures yelled out with impatience "We've been planning this rebellion for over 5 years now, We have over 2,000 rebels at our side! Why have we just been doing nothing to get rid of the damn dark-hairs already?".
The figure at the door then walked over to the large table "Because, Rex" the figure spoke "Have you forgotten about the Tesla Soldiers? Those Tesla brats are what made the war fall in Gallias favor. They are capable of destroying massive armies with that accursed Outer Heaven made by the former older brother, Jacob Tesla".
The other figure smirked when he said Jacob's name.
"Hmm, Hehe...Jacob Tesla was a truly powerful young man" she muttered "Hmm, If only I was younger. Maybe I could have been able to persuade him to our side".
"Mavius...please sister" Rex uttered in disgust "Just stop praising that bastered".
Mavius rolled her eyes at her brother until the last figure was busy spinning his multiple all purpose transformation tool in his right hand, As his left hand was in his pocket. "You fools don't understand how wonderful Tesla technology is" he told his comrades "You have to understand it piece by piece, Unlock it's shell, And study the core. Why do you think I spent the last 10 years of my life dedicating to studying the Tesla Codex that was mass-produced and sent to the most knowledgeable colleges?. The point is, In order to beat a Tesla Soldier, One must be on equal ground as them. Or in other words...".
The figure wasn't liking what he was hearing, But he figured that he had no choice but to comply to this theory. "So we use fire against fire, Correct? Cid?". Cid smiled and nodded at him "Exactly!" He expressed with joy "If we use their current weapons against them, Then we can achieve our dream! I even have-".
He was cut off by Mavius "That's all good and dandy, Cid. But...will our friends from the south of Gallia agree to this idea? Because I doubt it" she told her comrades. Cid stopped spinning his device, She was right, While they were all in for the idea, They knew that the nobles wouldn't be too thrilled about this plan. But it was their only chance, Their ace in the hole to purge the world of the Darcsens. Cid then looked to the last figure.
"Well, Roland?" He asked "What do you propose?".
The final figure, Roland sighed. He tapped his foot a bit before giving his answer.
"Call those nobles from the south" Roland ordered "It's time we make them a deal".
-south of Gallia-
In the southern side of Gallia lied the rebels of the Gallian Revolutionary Army. Baldren and Audrey, As well as their 2,000 nobles were all in a large mansion. Awaiting a call from their imperial partners. As much as the nobles hated working with the imperials, They unfortunately needed their help. After all, Cid knew more about the Tesla inventions better than anyone of them ever could. So they had no choice but to agree to have them on their side just for Cid. However they were absolutely unaware of what the fours true motives were, And that made them leery to fully trust them.
"What's Taking those damn Imps so long to call?!" Baldren expressed in anger. His sister Audrey was at his side trying to calm her brother down. "Brother...they'll call. They said they would. By the Valkyrur have faith".
Baldren sighed as he calmed down a bit "I'm trying..." he told his sister "But I just can't shake the feeling that-".
*ring!*
As soon as the first ring from the phone was heard, Baldren didn't waste any time in picking it up.
"Hello?".
"Well well, You sound like you've seen a ghost, Baldren" Roland teased the noble a bit, Getting a few snickers from his comrades. Baldren wasn't in the mood for any games. "Enough! Imperial!" Baldren shouted "Why did you fools wait so long to call us?!".
"We...have a proposal for you nobles".
"I don't like the sound of that, What's the catch?".
"I'll get to that in a bit, Now. You told us that you need Cid to help you idiots understand Tesla technology on the battlefield, Right?".
"Yes! That's he only reason why we agreed to an alliance!" Baldren told Roland "We only ask for your help in understanding the Tesla technology and nothing more!".
Roland sighed on his end as he then looked over at Cid. "Should I hand you the phone?" Roland asked him. Cid just looked at his tool as he then glanced at Roland and nodded his head, Roland then gave his comrade the phone as he then spoke:
"Theirs been a change in our deal" Cid told Baldren loud enough for Audrey and the nobles in the room to hear. They were outraged by this new information. "You rotten imperials! I knew we couldn't trust you-".
"Hold your tongue boy!" Cid demanded him "Now I am going to say this once and only once! Yes, Their has been a change in our little deal. We'll still help you in your purge of all Darcsens, But! Understand that you'll be facing the wrath of the Tesla Soldiers! You lot won't stand a chance against an army like them. However I have studied a book that was made by the Tesla's, And I can make your little army into a powerful force. But...".
The others were waiting for Cid to finish his sentence.
"But...?" Baldren spoke in a bit of annoyance.
"But in order to achieve this goal of yours, You must agree just like we have, In using Tesla technology" Cid finished. Hearing that last part of Cid's speech was not something that the nobles wanted to hear at all.
"What nonsense!" An Noble rebel shouted "Those imps really have lost it!".
"To use such outlandish weaponry against the enemy...". another noble rebel muttered.
"You won't catch me using any of those barbaric dark-hair loving suits! Not ever!" Another rebel made clear.
The whole room was in an uproar about this change, Baldren and Audrey weren't happy about it either. To use Tesla technology in their purge crusade in their minds was unfaithful. Why use their weapons in their civi war?. Audrey then took her phone.
"And why should we agree to that?" She asked them "Our weapons are more than enough to best any Tesla that comes between our goal!".
Cid just laughed on his end.
"Oh sure, Sure" he mocked "The current Gallian weaponry is able to take down a chimera bullseye rifle that has the ability to shoot out a tracker for the energy bullets to find it's target regardless of cover. Or, My favorite, The augur rifle that can literally shoot bullets that can travel through cover and get stronger with each wall that it goes through! Face it sweetie, Your Gallia weaponry is no match for the Tesla's weapons! So you have no choice but to comply to our demands!".
Audrey pulled the phone back from her ear, She cursed in her head. Audrey, Baldren, And the nobles, As much as they hated to admit it, Cid had a huge point. They wouldn't stand a chance against the Tesla Soldiers, Not with how much vast in their technology was. She then put the phone back to her ear.
"We...we'll agree to your demands..." she told them.
This made the imperials happy. Cid then spoke again into the phone "Excellent, You're such a sweet girl to listen to your elders".
"Just shut up and get over here and help us!" Audrey yelled as she then hung up the phone. The imperials then heard Cid sigh happily as he turned to them. "Okay, Once we get over to the south. We can start changing things. First off, As of tonight, We are no longer imperials! This current age of the empire and our new emperor is weak and cowardly! Secondly, I'll ask for one very important thing from our little noble friends. I need it for my king of beasts project".
The others just blinked at Cid, They knew he was a man obsessed about the Tesla's and their technology, But just how much information did he know? They knew that he studied for over 10 years, But still. Rex then snapped his fingers at Cid.
"And how exactly are we going to get over to the south? It's not like we're going to walk there". Cid then walked over to his bookshelves, He then placed his hand on a book and pulled it back. Making the whole bookshelf go up.
"Simple, I have four custom armored suits that I made two years ago. They only use the chimera ammunition, But the guns are custom made. I also have a huge drawn out image of a second project too, It's to match the power and size of metal gear Dynamo" Cid dumped on his comrades.
The others just blinked in awe, Surprise, And a bit of fear at how Cid could pull this off so easily. But they followed him into the hidden room, They then came into a room that only had four custom armored suits, Weapons, And a schematic drawing of the AMA-X7 Shamblo mobile armor. Cid then walked over to his personal armored suit: the GF13-003 NEL John Bull Gundam. The only gundam in their side, CID's gundam didn't have any form of beam sabers or any close range weapons. Instead it only had it's Vulcan Head guns, And a custom made auger rifle custom.
Cid opened his suit as he got in it and started it up. He took his steps as he then looked at the others. "Well? Get in your suits so we can get out of this place" he told them. The others broke out of their trance of awe and did as he had ordered. As they were getting in their suits, Cid then walked over and took his schematic down from the wall and tucked it into his armored suits custom backpack holder.
The others were now in their suits, Each one custom made for them:
Roland was in the MS-08T N-Efeet. It came with a cold katana, 2 cold kunai in the legs, And a bullseye rifle built into the shoulder.
Rex had the MS-18E Kampfer. With a MK 19 hedgehog grenade launcher gun on it's back, And a heat rod sword on the hip, As well as an extra set of shotgun gauntlets on the forearms.
Lastly was Mavius and her MS-14J Regelgu. With claws on the fingers and a model 1881 Gatling gun with reaper carbine bullets.
"So this is what a Tesla armored suit feels like" Roland expressed "It's actually not that bad. You did a fine job in making these, Cid".
Cid smirked under his armored helm.
"Heh, Thank you" he said "But we don't have time to praise, We have much work to do! Come, Activate the thrusters and we'll be off".
Cid then opened up a large door for his him and his comrades to get out of with ease. As soon as they were outside, They then activated their suits thrusters and took off. Cid was happy that his hard work was paying off. "Looks like the thrusters work! Good!" Cid said to his comrades.
"So they do!" Mavius told him "So what now? You said that once we get to the south of Gallia, Things would change!".
Cid just kept flying, Keeping his eyes on his destination. "And I did" he said "Because once we get their, We shall be known as not the stupid Gallian Revolutionary Army, But by a more powerful sounding name!".
The others were now curious as to what their new name they would be going under. "And, Just What is our new name that you had in mind?" Rex asked Cid. Cid just grinned from ear to ear.
"Simple!" He told him still keeping his head forward "We shall be known...as Royal Zeon!".
A/n: and it has begun! Hope you guys enjoy this!
