Travels-1-Casval's Rebellion
Disclaimer: I do not own Gundam. The rights to that belong to others. Original characters are mine.
Summary: Leonhardt and Riku have been saved by Seventeen to travel across dimensions. Now, the dimension they are sent to is very much like their own, but with very large differences.
Chapter 1 – The Hell Are We?
Para Dimensional Intervention Zone (PDIZ)
"Let's see… Nineteen sent his people here… Eighteen sent his people there. Sixteen hasn't sent people there but claims ownership of it, so he probably…"
In this lone section of the PDIZ, a girl in a cloak is looking at a strange map. In her hands are a sandwich, and what looks like a doll of another robed figure. She hasn't bothered to change forms since she received her 'guests' the other day.
"Ah! There we go! Similar to their world, but different enough to where they won't be entirely at home. Perfect for them to start off with!"
Cackling maniacally, she expands the map and draws two little dots on the area of the map that said, UC0079, Casval's Rebellion, version 6943.
"Where should I throw them, Leon in Jaburo? Ri in Side 3? Oh the fun I can have! Eh, probably shouldn't though, too many annoying things might happen because of that. Ah well, maybe they'll have fun."
With that sentence, the cloaked girl sighed and continued eating her sandwich.
UC 0079 - ?
Head ringing, loud sounds, people yelling. Probably just another bar fight.
With that thought, Leonhardt fell back asleep.
"Oi! Get Up!"
Leonhardt was rudely shoved out of a cot and onto the floor.
"What?! Who's that?!"
As Leonhardt slowly woke up, he realized where he is.
I'm in the back of a ship. WHY am I in the back of a ship?
As Leonhardt processed the information, another thought came to him.
"Shit, where's the Freddie officer? What was his name? Ricky, Rikke, Rikken Rika? Riku! That was it. We're supposed to be here together, so where is he?"
"Kid, we're here at Granada, get off my ship!"
"I got it, I got it, I'm going."
Looks like I'll need to figure out what's going on later. Right now though, I need a place to crash at.
No need! I'll tell you what's going on right now!
Seventeen, but how is she, spe- or is it a he… Hmm…
Yes yes, I know, the great mystery of me. But before you can fantasize about me, look at your papers, I'll tell you the story on the way.
Is it an Interesting story?
Not especially.
Make it fast then.
Ok then, long and complicated it is!
SHIT!
UC 0079 - ?
Engine humming, people humming, horrible smell. Yep, I'm on a battleship.
With that thought, Riku got up. Being more conscious than Leonhardt was, he notices a letter tucked in to the folds of his pants pocket.
Riku, since you will probably be more awake and conscious of your whereabouts, I will just give the information straight to you. This after the battle of Odessa but before the battle of Solomon during the One Year War, with a crucial difference. Casval, or as you better know him, Char, has just caused a split in Zeon's forces. Essentially, he started his own faction, calling it Neo Zeon. The war is now a three way stalemate between Zeon, Neo Zeon, and the Federation. I placed Leonhardt with Neo Zeon at Granada, while you are now officially part of the White Base's Crew, congratulations. I almost gave him a MS-18E Kampher (heeavily1 modified to operate in space as well) and you a RX-78-1 Gundam Prototype. However, then I thought you two would have too much firepower so you just have a fully modified GM and he as a modified Gouf. Basically your GM is a Ground-Type Gundam, but much better and usable in space. His Gouf is more like a Kampher in the sense that it's much better than everything else the Zeon forces have. Your GM is preloaded into the White Base. If anyone asks why it's there, tell them you moved it there. Enjoy!
The White Base, huh. They participate in several major battles throughout the war. The White Base itself though, meets its end at A Boa Qu.
With a sigh, Riku put the letter into the nearby bag that was obviously for him and went off to meet the crew.
This isn't going to end well.
UC 0079 – Granada
And that's when I decided between a Rick Dom and a modified Gouf, and had a sandwich and -
SHUT UP ALREADY!
Alright alright. You do get it though, right?
Yes! I didn't need the exact details of every single event that has happened! Also, why did Riku get the SIMPLE and easy version?!
Easy, you get riled up more easily.
…
Silence reigned as Leonhardt began looking over his papers. They included his orders and his temporary squad.
…
Also, is it really such a good idea to go to Luna II? One of the major Federation bases?
Leonhardt sighs as he lookes up from his orders, looking for the path to his ship.
It's not like there was much of a choice. Strategically speaking, we do need to expand our territory. The Federation controls a majority of Earth and Luna II. We only control North America and Granada. The smartest thing to do is to conquer the Federation's only space fortress. That way we can focus on two separate fronts: the front in space against Zeon and the front against the Federation on Earth.
Look at you, thinking ahead.
Leonhardt began banging his head against a nearby wall, attracting the attentions of other nearby people.
UC 0079 – Side Six
Riku sat down on the pier looking out at the lake. He already walked through the White Base and met all of the crew. It was only a matter of time before he found a place to sit down and ponder everything that was going on.
Even with all of the changes going on, the battle of Solomon is still going to occur. What exactly is different? Everything from then up to now is the same, but I can't find any mention of my squad? I can't even find any mention of the enemy squad that we faced. How much of a difference is there between this world and ours?
As he continued to ponder, he notices a car that is stuck in the road.
Hey, isn't that Amuro?
Before Riku can get up to do anything, he sees a man and a woman arrive in their own car to help Amuro.
That man… Char2?!
Riku began reaching for his gun before remembering that they are on a neutral colony and that any shots fired would have severe diplomatic repercussions. As he settled down, he saw Amuro drive off, coming his way.
"Ah, Amuro!"
Riku got up and called to him.
"Riku! What is it?"
"Can you give me a ride back?"
"Uh, sure."
As Amuro drove them back, Riku began thinking about the possible changes of this world.
Stop worrying so much.
Thought you might begin annoying me.
How rude! I'm not annoying.
Judging by the fact that you're not bothering the other guy, either he told you to go away, or you decided to bother me instead.
Yep!
"We're here."
As Amuro said that they arrived at the White Base.
"Thanks Amuro. See you around."
"Right, see you."
With that, Riku walked away, going towards his GM, as he figured they may need to fight their way out. After that would be one of the largest scale battles of the war to date. The battle of Solomon was around the corner.
A/N
I'm keeping it primarily with following the OC's around because you can probably guess what everyone else is doing. I may follow other characters events, but it will have to depend. Originally I wasn't planning on having Seventeen annoy them, but then I decided that it would be make more sense with her personality to annoy them, though she also leaves notes.
The reason it follows the canon with the White Bases actions is because there really isn't a reason for their actions to change yet. Zeon is still a major faction and getting rid of Solomon would be beneficial for the Federation to attack the other space fortresses. Char being at Side 6 is easily explainable. The Flanagan Institute is based on one of Side 6's colonies, and he could have been there to visit or to convince Side 6 as a whole to join him.
I don't actually know the events during Casval's scenario for Gihren's Ambition. What I do know is that the White base crew joins Neo Zeon after a plan to destroy Granada with a space colony emerges thanks to Revan 193. I'm doing original events though, other than that.
Thanks to Revan193 for giving me the background of Casval's Zeon scenario in Gihren's Ambition. With the information he gave me, I know the characters and locations that each faction gets at the beginning of that scenario. Its useful information, even if I don't use all of it.
[1] Wrote it that way to emphasize the way she said it.
[2] Casval went by the name Char for the majority of his life, so it makes sense (to me) that other people would refer to him by the name they are more familiar with.
