Author Notes: This is my first Fanfic. This story plays with the idea that there could have been a sixth Gundam Pilot. The Pilot is Evangelions Asuka Langley Sohryu. In here we lern about her sad messed up past, her path to piloting the Dark Mirage which is a new one I came up with, and her healing through her ralationship with Quatre and firendship with the others. By the way I originally had this in the Gundam Wing section but I going to see how it dose in here for awhile. Please review, I need your opinon!
Extra Note: For those of you who dont know what Gundam wing is you might to skip this page but, please read it any way. :( Also the boy in the prologue is Heero.
Finding Light through a Dark Mirage
Prologue
In the year after colony 190, five years before Operation Meteor, memories of the assassination of the colony leader Heero Yui are beginning to fade for most of the citizens of outer space. However, for the few that still remember it was because there was reason to and a mission to fulfill. As the sun rises over the earth its rays hit the cluster of colonies located in Colony area L1 and the residents L1C1013 remain unaware of the potential hazards lurking around their giant rotating space home. Even though they left, earth to escape the constant suffering of war they modeled, their artificial home to resemble everything that earth had. Right down to having the white gentle snow falling down every year on Christmas Eve. However, in lieu of the Christmas cheer the United Earth's Sphere Alliance who had positioned troops thought all colonies had their Leo mobile suits on guard. "terperwerh..terperwerh" sounded a purple mobile suit as it walked up a suburban street. Walking it held upward a giant gun in its hand and in its cockpit sat pilot sergeant Nikol. Nikol was used to this. This was the same patrol route he had preformed every other day for the past year. Nikol looked over at the right visual screen of his cockpit to check and see if it was time to report in. The clock on the display read (L1 17:29) Meaning Colony area L1 5:29 PM. Seeing it was time he pushed one the various buttons on the control stick and Stated. "L1 Ops HQ this is Sergeant Nikol call sign (Vapor) reporting in for 17:30 statues update." Ops HQ meaning operations head quarters. Waiting for a reply, the 18 year old controlled his suit to stop walking. Then a female voice sounded in his cockpit and his communications display located on the top left of the front screen turned on. Nikol did not bother to look up to see who was talking he already knew. "Hey sergeant" a 17 year old blond said unprofessionally. Nikol then rolled his eyes and replied "Private what are you doing remember what happened last time you used improper communication conduct." He said with an alert tone in his voice."
"Speak for yourself where's your Christmas spirit hot stuff besides our supervisor already left for the night."
"Yeah well mines still here."
"Alllright" she said playfully. Then the girl pushed a record button on her steel work panel and said "Vapor this is L1 Ops HQ you may give your statues update"
"Roger this is Vapor at L1C1013 section 2. No irregularities among civilians or colony continence."
"Understood Vapor, continue to post guard"
"Roger Vapor will continue" Replied Nikol. Then pressing the same button again he watched the com display read (TRANS X) meaning transmission ended followed by the word (standby) and so the Sergeant and the girl continued their work unknowing that someone very dangerous to them had been listing in. His name was Doctor J and he was in the midst of creating a weapon not seen in ages. A weapon powerful enough to take on the UESA and OZ, a weapon powerful enough to retaliate for Heero Yui's assassination and bring peace back to the colonies, a weapon known as Gundam. With darkness all around him, the only light he had was coming from his high-tech computer in some secret location of C1013. The computer light projected out to him cascading letters and numbers over his artificial eyes and wrinkled face. "Hehe" he chucked as he pushed a button on his work consol."Now it's time for my status update." He said speaking to himself as he pushed another.
Then for a second his screen displayed the word sending and then instantly he received six articles of data. "So, they have been persistent." He said in giddy tone. Then he opened the messages and they all displayed only a series of numbers patterned on each digital document. However, at the top of them there was a specified number to indicate which deciphering code to use in order to read the encrypted information. It did not take him long enough to decipher the articles and after he was done reading them he had seen the basic layout and designees of five other Gundams. Professor G was creating his self proclaimed masterpiece called the Gundam Death scythe, Doctor S a long range Gundam called Heavy arms , Instructor H a close range highly destructive suit called Sand rock , Master O one that was called Shenlong could unleash a fountain of fire, and another engineer called Doctor X he was creating a Gundam called Dark Mirage. It was another close range suit.
The sixth article was from the Barton foundation. As doctor, J read it standing up with his hands on the desk leaning over it he blurted out "That ludicrous their suggesting the deaths of 2 billion people and using the Gundams as a tool for massacre!!" Then plopping back down onto his metal chair he dropped his head down and sighed heavily "They expect me to follow those orders do they...no that's not the correct path...all we have to do is take out the dangerous evil people responsible for starting wars." I'm sure that's what late Heero Yui would have wanted." He finished nodding his head with content.
Suddenly to the left of him a door opened. Then a young boy walked in to the large sub level facility that was Doctor J's Gundam factory. "Right on time kid." the engineer said retracting his exhausted demeanor and standing up to greet him. "What is it." The ten-year-old boy asked in a monotone. "Well I thought I'd give you your first Christmas present." "Why" the boy asked emotionlessly as he opened an electrical box attached to a wall next the pneumatic steel sliding door. "Why?" quoted the scientist in confusion. Then the boy grabbed his hand on a lever inside the box and then pushed it up. As a result, giant lights beamed on above them. "Well you see lad when you've been close to someone for a while it's proper to show that you care for them or respect them. So that's what I'm doing for you." the scientist explained understandingly. "Understood sir" the brown haired kid acknowledged turning away from the now closed box to walk closer to his unofficial guardian. The boy walked up with his hands in his pockets wearing tan cargo shorts, a black hooded sweater and white skater shoes. Then stopping next to the white coated brown pants doctor the boy asked, "Has there been any orders from the organization yet"
"Yes but I will brief you on that matter later"
"Understood"
Then the scientist sat back down in his chair and started to press various buttons. As he did, the boy stood to the side of him crossing his arms and looking out ward over the control panel at the vast high ceilinged of dimly lit hanger. Positioned in mid air by a crane at the far side was a Gundams head. The kid had seen it before but this time his eyes slightly widened and his brows narrowed for Doctor J had just activated it main cameras and for the first time it two giant green eyes powered on. Then Doctor J said, "Having completed its head your Gundam should now be three years away from completion." "That's great thank you," the boy said still in that monotone trying to show gratitude. "No, that's not your real present lad" the doctor reassured him enthusiastically standing up from his chair.
"Oh my mistake"
"That's fine, here this way," he said walking away from the control panel. Therefore, the doctor led the boy down an elevator to the hanger floor and to its center just under the uncompleted mobile suits head. In front of them was large bulky metal box "This is my present to you." The doctor said pulling something out of his pocket "This?" the boy questioned looking at the giant bulky metal box in front of him. "Affirmative." replied Doctor J standing behind him. Then the boy heard a button click behind him and the object in front of him started to reshape. Suddenly a blast air shot out from it making the boys hair fly up. Then the front side of it lowered toward him hinging at the bottom. Next there was another wall behind that one but this on slid up over it and then the future Gundam pilot saw for the first time the inside his cockpit. "Da...doctor is this the cock pit." The 10 year old asked in amazement. "No lad this is your cockpit and it's ready for testing" So the young solder stepped inside and for the first time saw through eyes of a Gundam.
