Authors Note: Hey everyone! So after the longest dry spell ever, I think I finally have cracked this writers block! Yay!

Gundam Seed:
Love On The Battlefield
By Eagle_Alchemist
Prologue
Her breath came is frantically short pants. The chill made the air leaving her body visible in the half lit corridor. She did not notice the icy feel of the concrete floor under foot. She did not stop, nor turn her head, to look into the open doors she hurried passed. Her heart pounded. Lungs burning from breathing cold air in too fast. The sounds around her, were terrifying and it drove her onward. Fearing for her own life, she ran and ran and ran. Screams of death, shouts of anger and the crack of gunfire, filled her ears. And still, she ran. Not knowing where she was running to, only caring about fleeing from the horror behind her.
She had to get out. Had to get as far from it all as possible. Her life depended on her escaping this prison of nightmares and demons.
Reaching a set of double doors at full speed, she threw them open and was greeted by utter carnage. Giant robots were everywhere. Gunfire rained down around her, laser beams obliterated sections of the building she had just fled from. The ground rumbled and quaked, with every step those giants took. The battle leaving craters the size of a family saloon in the ground. Narrowly missing being caught beneath one of the robots, she made a break for the tree line. Just one single thought was clear in her mind in that moment, she did not want to die. Dashing into the trees, she blindly ran straight ahead. Branches grabbed at her blood stained gown. Thorns from bushes scraped her face, arms and legs. Stones and other debris cut into the soles of her feet.
But still, she fled. Like a scared animal. Racing as fast as her legs could move. Not knowing what lie ahead, but fearing what lie behind.
It seemed like forever before she came to a clear area. It was a winding dirt road. Likely the main one that led to the complex. Taking off at a dead run, she almost believed she would make it. With only the moonlight to guide her, she followed the road. The battle raged on. A loud noise caught her attention and she looked up. Stopping dead in the middle of the road, she stared mouth agape as two of those horrifying robots landed on the road blocking her path. Turning to run, she was stopped by a large hand, scooping her up off the ground. Screaming she squirmed and tried to get free. As she was brought closer to the body of the beast, her fear coupled with her lack of air intake, caused her to pass out. Her body went limp like a rag doll in the grasp of that metal hand.
