CE 71, September 29th

The PLANTs were in a state of emergency, as attacks by the Earth Forces have come again for another strike at the PLANTs. On the Street, many of the citizens were pushing and shoving each other to get to the escape shelters. Everyone besides two people who were pushing through to get to a certain building. One of these two was a woman of seventeen years old with light brown hair wearing a black tank-top and a red skirt. Infront of her was a young man that was using his own body to push people out of the way of him and her. "Come-on we got to get to the N hangar." Chris told the girl who was named Nicola. Chris had long jet black hair, much like Canard Pars, his clothing though he wore torn blue jeans and a bit torn black muscle shirt.

"Damn those Earth Forces, why did they have to get those N-Jammer cancelers, this be a hell of a lot easier." Nicola said franticly as she kept up with Chris who just so happens to be her boyfriend since before the bloody valentine. The very accident that took her sisters life, and the rest of her families. Nicola was an orphan and has been for nearly two years, but her families friend Chris' mother took her in and gave her shelter, after she escaped from Junius Seven with Chris and Nicola.

"I know what you mean Nic, but for now, we just got to get to the building." Chris said as they finally emerged from the fleeing crowd and went to the building. The building they got to stood well higher than any mobile suits, as it stood over forty meters tall. "Finally" Chris said as he went to the main door. Beside the door was a locking mechanism which Chris put in some code on the keypad. He then put his eye up to an optical scanner, as this building kept a high tech security system.

"Employee, Chris Nexus Confirmed, welcome back Chris." The mechanical voice told him as the sound of a lock unlocking the main door. Chris opened the door and let Nicola in first then went in himself. As the door closed the lock locked on its own. Inside the building it was nothing but a hollow room, and inside were two mobile suits, actually not mobile suits, as Kira Yamato would put it; Gundams were what stood inside the building, two completed machines, one with a huge cannon as its right arm, while the other wielded two Anti Ship swords on its back, each machine were basicly what they showed, first is the one with the cannon, the NXS-001 Black lightning, the long range mobile suit out of the pair. Beside it the one with the anti ships swords was the Crimson blade, equipped with the latest Melee combatant weaponry.

"Chris, Nicola!" came a woman's voice as a woman in her early 40 came rushing towards them, she wore a white lab-coat and wore green rimmed glasses. "I'm glad you two made it." She said out of breath. "I was beginning I was going to have to self destruct these machines in space." She said as Nicola broke open a small smile.

"Yeah, thanks to those Damn Earth Forces, the colonies are hectic." Chris said as he looked up to the machines. "Is the Chairmen coming to get us today?" Chris asked as his mother, who's name was Kinawa Nexus looked as well. "Any news on the battle outside?" Chris asked.

"Yes, GENESIS fired at the Earth Forces main base, so now all the Earth Forces are trying to do is destroy us and that weapon, with every last weapon they got." Kinawa told him. "In otherwords, a Nuke can hit us at anytime, and with those Renegades, that is considerably less than it once was."

"Yeah, those ships Lacus is on along with those other traders to the ZAFT military. Well I'm not a military man, but who cares right now, are these machines battle ready?" Chris asked.

"Yes, your own OS have been added in yesterday, so as far as these machines are concerned about, they are ready for battle." Chris' mother told him.

"I just wish this Spiral would stop spinning." Nicola said outloud, as both Chris and Kinawa knew of her little thing about describeing life as a Spiral of death. She started it when her family died, but she continues to live on do to her boyfriend Chris, who keeps her strong when he is near. One main reason however is that Chris possessed a gene that has been said to be extinct, an he calls it unleashing the beast. Nicola just feels very protected when Chris is with her.

"That is one thing we all wonder Nicola." Chris then turned to his mother. "I'm going out to that battlefield, I must protect my home, and I wont lose this one like I did our last." Chris said as his Mother nodded.

"Chris you have your father in you." She said as Chris nodded. He may not of liked his old man, but that is another thing, he may not like but he respected the mans intentions.

"I'm going to!" Nicola said as she went towards the Crimson blade and went into the dressing room.

Chris turned to his mother once again. "Trust me mom, I wont let this home go up in flames." Chris told her and went to the changeing room as well. A few minutes later, Chris and Nicola emerged from the rooms. Kinawa was in a observational window looking on as in a way, her children go up those mobile suit Ziplines to their cockpits. Once inside the cockpits closed, and she could only see her children on computer screens.

Inside the machines both pilots were flipping their main power switches on. Which just so happend to draw power from a nuclear power source, and on their startup screens the word G.U.N.D.A.M appeared infront of them. It stood for, General Un-subdued Nexus Drive Assault Module. Before anyone knew it, the machines took on their true colors, which just so happend to be their names. The Black Lightning was all black, but had golden lightning bolts appear all over the machine along with having its joints in a golden color, much like the Astray Gold Frame. The Crimson Blade was of course Crimson, but it had some dark Red in its joint areas.

"Mom, you did good work in these things." Chris said as Nicola nodded in her machine.

"Yeah, this thing is amazing!" Nicola called then Chris viewed his sensors, which were unfazed by any N-Jammers, the ZAFT ships carry.

On his scanners, he saw 6 mobile suit signatures, on them were two GINNs, three GuAIZs, and a commanders GuAIZ which held a Heavy Scythe in its hands, while its beam rifle stayed on its hip. "Hey mom, The Military is here, mind telling them we are about to go fight to stop the Naturals?"

"Yeah sure." Kinawa told him as she tuned into the general ZAFT frequency. "Attention ZAFT squad, we are about to release the new machines on the Earth Forces."

"We understand Miss, this is Alexis Alexander of the Reaper squad." Came the voice of a red headed female inside the Commanders GuAIZ. "But orders from the chairman, we must escort the two new machines to Jachin Due first." She told them.

"But why, they can go and defend the colonies now." Kinawa told them, but unkown to Alexis, one of the GuAIZ units have aimed its beam rifle at the origin of the broadcast signal. "So that is what we are doing, the pilots will report when this battle is over and that ZAFT Wins."

"Ok I will tell the higher ups, just stay on stand by . . ." Just then the GuAIZ that raised its rifle at the signal's origin opened fire with a beam of emerald death going right for where Kinawa is standing. Chris' face lit up with horror as he saw the observational room turn ablaze by the beam.

For some unexplained reason, Nicola was able to feel the anger within Chris for the even that is happening, Chris Mother was just killed by a beam of emerald death and Chris felt something snap inside his head. Outside in the GuAIZs and GINNs Alexis turned to the one who fired the shot and swung her scythe slicing off the head of the GuAIZ. "YOU IDIOT!" She called as the head of the GuAIZ landed on the ground. "We are in the PLANTs, why would you open fire in here?" Alexis asked the man.

"Easy commander." One of the other pilots said raising his beam rifle at Alexis. "If they do not come with us now, we are to kill them at once." the man said, "And you!" he added.

"WHAT!" was all her reply was.

"Sorry commander, but Chairman Zala was given evidence from commander Rau Le Creuset, that you gave the NJC data to the enemy, and you were and these people cohorts with the Naturals " A GINN pilot told her as the GuAIZ was ready for battle while the other machines were ready to take her to pieces.

Inside the Black Lightning, Chris had already to change as his skin was now a dark gray, and his hands were clawed now, and his eyes, were no longer human. Nicola felt his anger and was able to tell, he has unleashed the beast but Chris was not in his complete beast form. "This may not be good, with that machine of his, he can tear this colony apart easily." Nicola said as she began to move her machine as it took its first step. "I gotta get rid of these guys, before Chris goes Berserk, like he did to those bullies years ago. They were never the same after that." Nicola told herself as she raised her machine's right arm. The jet propelled weapon fired and went right through the wall of the building, the GINNs turned to the even where one was Grabbed by the head by the claw. Then the crimson blur of the Gundam came through the wall, making one huge hole, with an anti ship sword in its left hand. The machine came on to the GINNs, slicing one of them horizontally through the cockpit and then landing infront of its captured prey. "You Bastards!" She yelled as she lunged the Anti Ships sword into the cockpit of the captured GINN, "Join the Spiral!" Nicola yelled as some of Chris' anger was rubbing off on her do to their past.

Alexis took the distraction to her advantage, she Took her scythe and sliced on through one of the GuAIZs as her Machine also had its beam claw extended. "That Machine is good, I have never seen such a machine." Alexis told herself as she blocked a beam claw attack with her own claw. "What the, Positron Energy Radiation detected, and its coming from!" Alexis called as she looked towards the origin of the Crimson machine. "Damn!" She said kicking the GuAIZ she was fighting away from her as she hit her boosters to take flight. Just then, the Crimson Machine hearing what Alexis said, also jumped away.

"Chris Don't, Don't use that in. . ." Nicola couldn't finish what she was saying, as a four hundred meter in diameter beam of red and green energy rushed past them, as the two last GuAIZ units were now nothing more than dust particles, and the Beam continued, to even outside of space.

Space. . .

In space, the battle raged, multiple machines flying each way, destroying each other. Rau Le Creuset's Providence was fighing of Kira Yamato's Freedom Gundam. Then two energy beams just passed from up ahead of the Providence. "Oh no you don't!" Aelan called as she placed her machine between Rau and Genesis. "You will have to get by me first." She told him as he nodded inside his machine.

"Then you to will die Aelan." He said releasing the DRAGOONs. Aelan knew the best defence against the attack by deploying her shield. She opened the spot to allow her cannons to fire, but Rau took that chance. He fired his rifle right in the hole destroying the cannon and the shield system. Rau was coming in as then all of a sudden out of nowhere a red Azure beam that was four hundred meters in diameter nearly blowing away the Red Queen and Providence.

"What the hell was that?" Aelan called as she turned to the origin of the blast. Kira then came in and continued his fight with Rau.

"Aelan, go and find out what that was, I'll handle Rau." Kira called as Aelan obliged and went after the beam creator.

Aelan, then went for the Colony where the Energy Emerged from.

In the Colony, Chris returned to normal, as his Gundam walked out of the now destroyed building. "Wha. . .What have I done?" Chris asked himself, as Cars were flying into the gaping hole, Chris then detected Life Signs, as he looked at the origin of the life signs. "Mary, Josh, Galia!" Chris called as his machine turned to them.

"Hey, Scythe wielder!" Nicola called, not remembering Alexis' name.

"Come on, our machines can only hold one person, and those people are friends of ours." Nicola called as her red machine flew towards the group of teens, as it was now in Zero Gravity. Each ot the three machines went and kneeled by the Teens.

"Hey, are those!" Josh called as the two girls looked at the incoming machines. Each kneeled down and opened their cockpits.

"Come on all of you get in now!" Chris called as they knew who it was, and didn't object, each of them went into a mobile suit as time was of the essence, as now, the Shelters were being Launched. Mary got in with Nicola, Josh to Chris' and Galia to Alexis, who wasn't very comfortable, and then, the ground began to shift.

"Damn, the support cables can't take anymore!" Chris called as the ground shattered underneath them. The whole that was created to, began to collapse in on the colony, sucking everything still inside into the black void. This even Included the three machines, they moved around so much, Everyone, pilots and passengers were knocked unconscious. That was when while in space Aelan saw what was happening, the Colony was collapsing in on itself. But she saw the hole, and what came out of it, as she came in for a closer look. The Colony was literally destroyed, as it folded and what not. When she got close, she almost instantly recognized the machines that were not grunt machines.

"No way, it can't be, Black Lightning, and the Crimson Blade, but how?" Aelan told herself as she began to hack into the internal, "God please let the ones I think are piloting them actually are" Aelan said franticly as her screens shown who was inside the two machines. And sure enough for her, she saw the faces of Chris, and Nicola, both unconscious inside their machines. Aelan detached herself from her METEOR unit and began to reprogram it for re entry. "If their specs are anything like this, they should be able to survive re-entry" She thought as she could here, Kevin's talking to everyone on the com as Aelan finished putting the GuAIZ on the Meteor, along with the Black Lightning, and Crimson Blade. Just then it happened.

"...ice is also great and would suffice."

"Good by everyone, may you all live happily." Jason called, "Here I come Tanya!" as his Machine self destructed inside the chamber alongside Kevin's three kiloton blast. GENESIS finally fired The explosion was blowing the gizzards out of the giant weapon before it could do more than vaporize what was left of Providence and batter the fleeing Freedom.

The remaining two arms of the Ironwall ejected from the Sturmfalke and exploded losing their main base. That was when one last line came over the radio. One last transmission came out of the inferno. "Fire this time..."

"No, Damn you Kevin, you weren't suppose to die on me yet!" Aelan yelled, as the three machines that were now on her Meteor unit began to drift to Earth.
