Seed Effect: Gundam
(There was a change in plan and I decided to make the story slightly differently, the story will only have this chapter and a couple after just to test it.)
Gundam Wing/AC is also here
And there is Mass Effect characters
And there maybe something else
Cosmic Era 76
After the war between the remanent factions of Logos, humanity has finally reached peace, ZAFT and the Federation form a strong bonded alliance to rebuild earth from the 'Break the World' incident two years earlier.
The third Bloody Valentine War is also put to an end.
The colonisation of Mars marks the end of the conflict.
FTL technology development is under way, light wave fields show a higher promise of reaching FTL speeds and maintaining.
Kira Yamato and Lacus Clyne are engaged.
Plans for the deconstruction of MS begin, but other plans for new suits are put forwards.
Luminaria Hawke is married to Shin Asuka, the couple move to Mars colony 1.
C.E. 79
The first FTL ship launches from Aprilius, the "Wings of Freedom" is sent out across space to Alpha Centauri, the ship was originally a mobile suit carrier, but due to high funding and many changes of hands, the ship was loaded with colonists and scientists to look for a new world.
The Orb Union begins the production of FTL engines and ships; the Human Alliance is formed; now with a single goal, humanity begins rapid expansion.
C.E. 99
Two decades have passed and the Alliance continues to grow, humanity now stands at:
8.15 billion.
Population of Mars
40 million
Space colonies
Approx. 501 million
Mobile suits lose size and become more and smaller, at current height and design 10m in height, development of fusion drives become more powerful and more compact.
C.E. 120
Mars is now full inhabitable, a decade of hard work from special particle emitters called LFE (Light Frequency Emission drives) create warmer greenhouse effects and allow for rapid plant and life growth.
A discovery is made by colonists at New Mani, a large alien structure is discovered, the unknown structure is discovered to be an outpost, the outpost is mainly intact, and Alliance scientists begin deciphering language.
Major panic spreads across the community about discovery of other life; some conspirators believe Glenn knew of this discovery, though many are sceptical about humanity and other species.
C.E 121
The species found on Mars was still unidentified, but soon more and more relics of the species are found and a star map of coordinates to a 'Relay' is discovered.
The Freedom is sent to investigate the Relay, one day later the Freedom reports of a mysterious object in space, a veteran officer named Jon Grissom decides to bring the ship closer to the relay point, the ship somehow triggers an event that activates the relay, Freedom is flung out into space at more than FTL speeds.
Freedom returns a few hours later to explain what had occurred.
Three months later an expeditionary force led by Grissom begins the exploration of unknown space.
C.E 125
Arcturus is now built at relay Alpha, the space colony is manufactured as a means of refuelling and ship production, though millions flock to the station to help colonise unknown space.
The space colony is 1000km in length and 250km in diameter.
Population scale:
Arcturus: 11M
Earth: 10B
Mars: 250M
Space colonies: 75: 550M
Shanxi: 5M
Xiang: 2.1M
C.E. 130
The colonies of Shanxi and Xiang are completed in the neighbouring star system and three other worlds begin LFE Terra formation.
Mobile suits are now mainly used as tools; standing at 2m the mobile suit is to undergo a name change to hard suits or Mobile Gear.
Colonial space is formed; the governments of the space colonies declare independence.
No conflict follows.
Sam Shepard is born.
Kiara Yamato is born on Eden Prime at Alpha Relay.

Date: CE.144 Nova Relay
Three Aegis Class cruisers sat out in front of a civilian class Silver-Wind, the Aegis class much like its Orb predecessor was a frigate, but not for naval operations.
The ships light navy coloured armour stood out from the blackness of space.
Though the endless expanse of space meant there was infinite possibilities, Commander Ugi Hitomi was not as thrilled to be here, the first long range variants of the Aegis class vessels and he had to be on babysitting duties.
He truly wished for a proper run down for the Aegis, but because of high demand of escorts for science vessels he had no other choice but to follow orders of his superiors.
Ugi was only 21 and he was a commander of three escort vessels, but there was a reason, first off he was a coordinator or more specifically a 3rd generation, meaning he was born conceived by a normal and an enhanced, second off was that he was a brilliant combatant, and a strategist, topping most of his peers he quickly rose through the ranks, he was smiling at his graduation.
And now he was miserable as hell, the head honcho decided he needed to get out some practice with his new set of ships so he sent Ugi and two other vessels.
"Sir, no changes on the light wave scanners, though there might be some interference from the relay." The Ensign said for the 15th time.
Ugi was staring at his panoramic view of the stars well some at least; the view was mostly taken up by a large two pronged object sitting in the middle of nowhere.
Things had been lovely this day, not a cloud in the sky… but this was just a figure of speech, he really meant that the mission was so boring he couldn't care less if there was.
"Sir…" The ensign was about to say something when Ugi decided to snap at him.
"What is it this time ensign Ceil?" He said annoyed.
"Sir, we have a signature or a cluster on approach, they are moving too fast and are constantly changing course, it is unlikely a natural phenomenon, the objects are now two hundred thousand meters and closing." Ugi almost jumped out of his chair.
"All hands level 2 battle stations, ensign Ceil begin engine start up this instant and get me lieutenant Duo at the CIC now." He said with urgency.
"Aye, Sir, alerting crew to level 2 battle stations." The ensign said.
The escort vessels were no longer in a lazy drift; the three ships turned their attention to the unidentified vessels that were now directly behind them.
Lieutenant Duo rushed out of his quarters along with half the combat crew, he and the others were just enjoying the reprieve from their routine when things just stirred.
Duo was a brown haired young officer that had an energetic and rather fast paced lifestyle; he also had a service record to match.
"Oh man, why can't some body be attacking us when we're not sleeping, we need to rest as well." He said over the alarms.
Finally reaching the set of lifts he hit the switch for the bridge, though he had to admit, the lifts on the ship were smooth and fast.
The lift at the back of the bridge opened and Duo stepped out yawning.
"So is it pirates or the usual hubbub…" He never finished his sentence as he looked out the window of the bridge.
Where there was nothing but black space now stood with five very odd looking vessels, each looked more or less like a birds but the largest one had a longer front, if he could take an estimate the vessels of each one were all light recon frigates with an escort destroyer.
Though the Aegis class was equal in length to the large ship, they were outnumbered.
(Think of it as Veda from 00 just that it's a female version of Feldt)
The ships active AI recognised the threat and self-activated from sleep, a pink haired girl with a military uniform suddenly popped up on the light projector display.
"Sir, I have begun my scans of the unknown vessels, they seemed to be powered by a different energy source more likely like the relays." She said calmly.
"That is great to know Yuna, but can we send a first contact message now before they decide to blast us into oblivion?" Duo said breaking the crew's stupor.
"Aye, Sir, sending greeting message now." A few beeps from the console and nothing came back.
The crew waited for a reply, but nothing came, the largest ship suddenly turned to face them.
Yuna quickly changed her expression. "Sir, unknown vessels are moving towards us, there has been no reply, alert energy spike!" She said with shock.
"All ships activate light wave barrier shields, now!" Ugi yelled.
Just then five simultaneous flashes of light came from the unknown vessels.
Duo and Ugi along with the entire escort crews were thrown down by the impacts upon their shields.
Ugi recovered first. "Status, Yuna?" He asked.
"Sir, the shields are holding, impacts suggest kinetic weaponry based much like our mass drivers but are less powerful, the enemy ships weapons are being blocked by the barriers, but we do not possess sufficient energy to maintain under sustained bombardment."
"Then return fire, launch DEEP 1-4 at the closet ship and fire Armour Breakers, Duo get to your HS team and get out there, bring the escort fleet to cover the Silver-Wing and then break off." He ordered.
Duo didn't have time for formalities and rushed to the lift, he hit the switch for the hangar bay, it was time for the death angel to begin, and there was also Hiro and Uzumi waiting for him.
The escort vessels did exactly as they had trained for and followed their orders, the three vessels covered the science ship and fire a barrage of missiles at the alien vessels, then the side DEEP cannons lancing out energy.
The five alien ships attempted to move, but three were struck by the blasts of energy and overwhelmed by missiles.
One exploded brilliantly after being struck by four lances and another disabled and overwhelmed by missiles, the last simply crumbled under the barrage.
The crew of the Aegis classes thought that this was easy; their enemies didn't even have shields to stop energy weapons, though this confidence was broken when a brief flash from space brought another wave of reinforcements.
Ugi watched as another 9 ships suddenly appeared, he and the crew were now panicking, the science vessel was just clearing and jumping as the aliens opened fire.
The three Aegis class shields crumbled as the sustained and continuous strikes wore out their shields, Ugi watched in horror as escort 2 exploded under the strain of attacks. Life pods managed to launch and HS teams as well.
"Damn, get ready for a retreat; tell Duo and the HS teams to cover us." He ordered.
Duo was on the launch bay at the rear of the ship when he witnessed Aegis 2 go down in flames.
"Damn, Hiro come on we're getting in now, Duo Maxwell, SXV1, launching." He said as the black suit like the Duel took off from the bay.
"Hiro Yui, SXV2 launching." The other black hard suit followed closely behind Duo.
About a team of 45 suits including those from Aegis 2 had launched, their maneuverers kept them safe from fire from the unknown aggressors, Duo doing his usual lone wolf went straight for the largest ship.
The mobile suits though weren't exactly surprised when fighters began to launch.
"This is too easy." Duo said as he blasted apart three fighters.
Beam rifles seemed more than capable to strike these small fighters and even partial hits resulted in explosions due to the armour weakness.
A fighter engaged a suit when it was targeting the large frigate looking ship, but the shots were blocked by the light wave shields, the suit then quickly twisted about and fired a missile from behind it, it struck its target in the back and obliterated the small fighter.
The battle once again turned to the colonial vessels, though they didn't have enough time to deal with fighting a war.
"Yuna, send out signal flares to retreat, we have all survivors from the Aegis 2 and the wreck was permanently destroyed by the charges nothing critical is left." Ugi ordered.
"Aye, Sir, recalling all HS teams." Yuna said.
In a few seconds three lights appeared, the alien vessels had no idea what the flares meant until the HS teams began retreating.
And in the last minute to get back Duo was left fighting for his life.
"Come on, bring it, ARGGHH." His suit was struck more than once as his team began to retreat, though he ordered them to leave.
Deleting all vital star maps and data critical to the colonies he began to struggle fighting off the waves of fighters, his beam rifle was destroyed and all he had left was a shoulder mounted laser cannon and a few shots from his pistol.
"Well looks like I don't get to go home, now do i?" He said laughing.
/LOG END/

CE: 144
/WAR/
This day was marked as the first interstellar conflict with a nonhuman species.
Ugi was given a debriefing and the Alliance was alerted, Shanxi was quickly reinforced by the 7th and 9th Alliance fleet.
Colonel Greg Williams of colonial forces had command of Shanxi and all other personnel such as General Arthur of the marines.
The conflict did not escalate until the 12th three days after the incident at Nova.
/RECORD 1/ DUO/ 9th/5th/144CE
Duo was one of those kinds of people who liked meeting other people, but then there were those kinds of people he did not like, don't get him wrong but he had a respect for those who were also his enemy, but then there was those people who acted like real douche bags.
"THUD" Duo was dropped harshly against the floor of his cell, he had been taken alive by the ones he calls the 'Chickens' bird like people, though he didn't realise that they managed to translate that after three sessions and in the medical recordings.
His captor was an admiral who decided to take him alive; Duo though gave the chickens more than enough reasons to kill him. But instead they wanted to be more patient; it seems that the Alliance had broken some kind of law that they never knew about, and now they were shot at, the species that he had met called themselves the 'Turian Hierarchy' he honestly did not give two half of a crap.
Which led him here in a cell, with an itch on his… leg, and a good bruising, and to top that off he was still wounded, somehow he doubted his captors were going to even give a damn.
Waiting on the ground he decided to fall asleep.
-Outside-
The turian admiral was getting his nerves frayed along with his other senior officers, the day just seemed to get continuously worse, there was the first fight and they had somehow lost and the human as the prisoner explained who had not told them 'jack'. [They got that from Duo]
The situation was not going to end well, the hierarchy wanted an explanation as to how they did not discover this species sooner, and the salarian union explains that they had no idea because they never explored here, and now a conflict had occurred.
Though this was not like the rachni war or the krogan rebellions, but it still seemed very bad, the fleet was on one routine patrol and now they lost more than 6 ships and suffered heavy damage across the entire board.
The strange suit the humans used devastated their fleet, the sheer speed and agility not to mention the energy shields had overcome an entire cruiser along with its escort, it was now in near ruins down on the hangar, though there was little they could learn, the pilot locked out all the controls and the different technology was going to take more time to break.
There was an interesting fact that they had learnt though, the core of the suit was more powerful than an entire battleship yet it was smaller than an OSD, this difference in size was a definite surprise.
The technicians were going over the suit, but there was little they could find, the suit designs were far more advanced than what they understood and the weapons were mostly destroyed, the only thing that was found was the energy cannon, but even that was hard to grasp.
The turian admiral simply sighed, if there was going to be a war they knew he knew it was going to be far more than just rough.
The council forces were alerted, and they were sending a small fleet in, this was just to assess the situation, and also because they wanted the prisoner and the suit, the hierarchy was not pleased about this and fought over control of the suit on the citadel, but they were out voted.

1 DAY LATER
Duo was wondering if his captors had forgotten he was even there, the only thing that ever came through the door was a paste tube, which he might add was bland as hell, though was filling.
He awoke at the sudden sound of the door opening to his cell.
"Yah know, it might be better to knock, its common courtesy." He said in a joking manner.
He had half expected his turian captors would beat him over the head again for his wise cracking jokes, but instead he was surprised to see a lady at the door, or more specifically a blue skinned lady with flesh like hair.
"And you should be more thankful that you're being moved." The blue lady said.
Duo decided to jump up from his cross legged position and stood up. "My apologies, I didn't know they had such fine women." He said in a mocking tone.
The lady walked back out the door and motioned for him to follow.
"Boy what a tough crowd." He said as he followed closely behind, outside he was escorted by another four similar looking females but they had different markings and colours on their face and body.
As he walked through the ship he noticed the lack of proper lighting in certain parts of the area, he did have to squint at times and he did yawn at how dark it was.
He also noticed the other species aboard the ship, there was a big bug eyed alien that moved around, and maybe the green skinned alien sitting by itself on a bench near a shuttle.
And there was some more friendly looking turians, he had to halt as the blue skinned lady talked to the bird face for about five minutes and in which time managed to ask one of his escorts where they were going, she replied with a place called the citadel.
They walked for about another five minutes until they reached the hangar bay, where he saw.
"Death Angel, she's still in one piece." He said walking closer to his suit.
Instinctively the turian guards drew their weapons at Duo; he stepped a bit back and said.
"Touchy." Duo walked a bit further away.
Finally watching things go by he noticed the aliens trying to take apart his suit, and now they were packing it into a ship.
The blue lady pointed to a shuttle and said. "It is time to get going."
Duo simply hopped inside and did as he was told… for now.
XXXXX
The shuttle lifted off with its fighter escort to the council ship, the HS was taken into a separate shuttle.
Duo asked a few questions along the way and only received a few blank stares from two of the 'asari' as one finally told him; the other two seemingly liked him, besides he was funny after all.
Well wherever he was going it couldn't be that bad could it?
(Sorry this is all I had time for)
