GundamWing Legacy
Episode 01
Rebirth of a Legend
The year is After Colony 312. The Earth Sphere and colonies have been at peace for years. The people thought that the notion of war was gone, but they were wrong. On November 7, AC 312, a large fleet was detected near Lagrange Point 5. Two Days later they attacked. Quickly they took over colony after colony. Without any weapons, they were defenseless. The Preventers tried to stop them but were overwhelm by their vast mobile suit numbers. Within a year the earth and colonies was their's.
The identity of the invaders was a mystery until they revealed themselves as the Drake of the Drakonia Dominion, nomadic alien race similar to humans. It is now AC 362, fifty years have passed and all of humanity has become second class citizens in their own home. However, people are resisting, rebel groups are fighting back using a powerful weapon the Gundam.
The place is a resource satellite near L1 Colony X-1029. The satellite is really a secret mobile suit facility belonging to the rebel group Archangel. Two squads of the Drake's Cepheus mobile suits are battle it out with the bases Serpent mobile suits. And amidst the chaos three Cepheus enter the satellite. They encounter some resistance, but quickly takes them out. One stays behind to give the others cover. The other two continue until they stopped at the entrance to a hanger. "Come on, that new suit is in here!" Said on Drake solider.
The doors open and it was dark inside. Then two green eyes light up and a beam saber ignites. The suit charges and slices the two Cepheus' in half with one stroke. The new suit was a gundam, the gundam Epyon. The Drake that stayed behind looked down the corridor wondering if the others had completed their mission. Then out of nowhere a heat rod wraps itself around the Cepheus' arm and tore it off. The Epyon followed up by thrusting its beam saber into the cockpit destroying the suit.
The Epyon hurried outside to help the others who were losing badly. The Drakes saw the gundam and fired a barrage at it. The pilot, though, had remarkable skills and dogged it. The Epyon destroyed one enemy and moved on to the next. Soon most of the Cepheus was gone and the rest retreated. Then the scene turned black. It was a recording being watched by a woman and four men in military garb.
"Gentlemen what you just saw was our new gundam the Epyon." Said the woman. She was Elizabeth Winzer head of Archangel. "As you can see the gundam is a formidable weapon it can be a valuable asset to our cause."
"This is wonderful, Elizabeth, but what do you plan to do with it?" Asked Harold Zaruk head of mobile suit forces.
"We plan to use it as a symbol of freedom and resistance, to unite the colonies and earth." Said Elizabeth.
"You sing an old song Winzer." Said Raul Gastro head of intelligence. "Ryu Shinza tried to unite the colonies, he even had his own gundam the Wing-Zero. But he failed and the Drakes captured the Wing-Zero! We're lucky they haven't used it on us. We are not ready for an all out war!"
"Ryu Shinza was a great leader, but a lousy pilot. He couldn't handle the Zero-System." Said a solider walking in.
"May I introduce Jeros Maximus, pilot of the Epyon." Said Elizabeth. The generals notice that Jeros had a red circle on his forehead and lines around the outside of his eyes and down his cheeks.
"He's a Drake!" Yelled Raul.
"Half-Drake." Replied Jeros.
"He's a spy! He can't be trusted!" Said Raul.
"Stop it! Jeros is the best pilot we have. He's no spy, I trust him with my life." Said Elizabeth. "Now with our petty bickering put aside this brings us to our next subject, why the Drakes haven't used the Wing-Zero. Dr. Chelsa will explain."
"Yes, as you already know Drakes have lighting fast reflexes, better then that of a normal human." Said Dr. Chelsa pointing to a diagram. "The reason why we haven't seen the Wing-Zero in action is because a Drake can't handle the Zero-System. The Zero-System feeds battle data directly into the brain, when a Drake uses it the system it overloads the brain causing the nervous system to shut down, killing the pilot. Now a human can use the system, but it would take years to train him. The best pilot for the Zero-System would be a Drake-Human hybrid. Unless the Drakes find this out there's a good chance that they won't use the Wing-Zero."
"That's why we need Jeros. Incase they use the Wing-Zero the Eypon will be the only suit that can take it on." Said Elizabeth.
"Tell me if I'm wrong, but didn't the Wing-Zero defeat the Eypon?" Said Harold.
"Let's hope that history doesn't repeat itself." Said Jeros.
"Now we take a vote," said Elizabeth. She pushed a button on a remote and ten screens lit up each with a person on it. "We need to decide if we declare war on the Drakonia Dominion. Green is yes red is no."
The vote was twelve to three in favor of war. The next day Elizabeth and Jeros boarded a shuttle leaving their colony. "Where are we heading?" Said Jeros.
"To L2 Colony X-1397. There we'll meet Irvine Seagill, he's agreed to help us. He's been building up his own mobile suit forces. That and he has his own gundam the DeathScythe." Said Elizabeth.
"Another gundam pilot, that should be interesting." Said Jeros. The trip to the Colony X-1397 was going as planed until they were ambushed. Cepheuses were closing in and Jeros quickly launch the Epyon with three Serpents. He swung his heat rod cut down two Cepheuses and turn around and fired his wrist beam gun hitting three more. Four suits surrounded him Jeros took his beam saber slashing at one suit and swung his heat rod hit another. The other two fired at the Epyon, but Jeros block it with his shield and fired his head vulcans and shoulder machine guns taking down the other two. Meanwhile the Serpents manage to deal with the rest of them. They boarded the shuttle and Jeros check on the other pilots and made his way to Elizabeth.
"How the hell they know where we going?" Said Jeros.
"I don't know." Said Elizabeth.
