A week had passed since Kira and Athrun had visited Zack and the Boss' small pit stop and everything had been running smoothly as they always had. Other then the Boss' old biker gang they restaurant had no customers and the bikers rarely ordered anything after their main meals, which they had already eaten, so Zack was mobbing the floor near the TV mounted on the wall.
As usually a boring show meant for house wives was on and since they didn't have video of DVD player, and the station was stuck, they had no choice but to listen to it's boring plot. Currently the elderly housewife was busy trying to find out what suspicious activity her newly wed neighbours where up to behind closed doors.
Zack smiled as he felt another quiet day was on it's way when suddenly the soup opera was interrupted by a news report announcing the sudden declaration of war by the Earth Alliance on ZAFT for the third time, with the reasoning of blaming ZAFT for the destruction of the colonies on Mars and Jupiter. Zack's immediate action was to grip the broom in anger, all the bikers could feel the hate rising from his body, and they knew he claimed aliens where at fault but the idea was just too outrageous… even if he was a Jupiter survivor.
The news caster stopped mid sentence and suddenly said in a slightly panicked tone announced, "We have just received word that a fleet of refugee ships has just entered range of ZAFT's scanners and are currently under attack by an unidentified force. One hundred mobile suits are trying to defend the fleet that are still outside of ZAFT's intercept range but according to reports their outnumbered and falling fast!" The Boss turned to ask Zack's thoughts on this turn of events only to see a mop falling to the tiled floor and Zack nowhere in sight.
Suddenly there was a massive flash of golden light from behind the restaurant before a golden 'meteor' raced into the heavens as the bikers watched in amazement.
Scanners across the Earth detected as it raced through the atmosphere at escape velocity, no one could explain how something reported as small as five to six feet could reach that sort of speed. Children looked away from their toys to watch was the sparkling streak raced over head.
As the light raced out of the atmosphere it passed a few of the remaining colonies and all stopped to watch in awe as it sped past. ZAFT's scanners soon picked up the speeding object as it raced into their area of space and in shock watched it approach the assembled PLANTs at breakneck speeds only to dodge and weave between them before racing towards the beleaguered refugee ships, passing the intercept force on the way.
Suddenly the light erupted past the refugee ships and the twenty remaining mobile suits and began slamming through the enemy as a teenaged boys voice was heard screaming, "VOLT… CRAAAASH!!!!" The light began flying seemingly randomly slamming into the aliens and killing any in it's path. It stopped suddenly and faded to reveal a five foot seven humanoid figure within.
The figure was mostly white with red on the shoulders, head, chest, knees and elbows with black on most of the joints and it's four insect like toes and ten animalistic fingers. Although it appeared humanoid it appeared to be covered in an insect like exoskeleton with large yellow gems under large white covers that could move out of the way for thrust. It's chest and shoulders where quite large while the head had back swept spike where the ears would be. It's green eyes seemed to be filled with hate when it looked on the aliens.
Suddenly a large lump on it's hip burst open exposing muscle underneath and a cylindrical device burst out. As the being reached for the cylinder it growled, "I won't let you…" It ripped the cylinder free and twisted it's wrist as long metal blade grew out in the form of a liquid before solidifying and the being finished, "Have the Earth!!" Suddenly the opposite hips lump opened and the being pulled free a second cylinder that also formed a sword, "You have no right to this world!!" The being roared before racing into the middle of the enemy.
One of the bugs that had caused the mobile suits so much trouble was sliced in half almost instantly as the boy swung one of the swords, spraying green blood as he did so. He raced straight through the collective swarm swinging both blades in violent arcs, wreaking havoc all the while. He suddenly linked both the swords pummel to pummel and twisted them to lock them together before spinning the new weapon rapidly in front of him, "VOLT… HURRICANE!!!!" The golden light reappeared and took on the form of a tremendous spiralling wave of energy as the being raced forwards once more.
The spiralling light tore through the enemies finishing off all but a dozen. The being stopped and hovered in empty space with the Earth directly behind him from the view point of the aliens and said defiantly, "This world… I will protect it with my life…" Suddenly it faced the few remaining bugs and the yellow jewels just under it's armpits shone before the sound of heavy machine gun fire was heard and tiny flashes of light shot from the jewels and began to shred the few remaining bugs with near impunity.
The refugees, who had been watching in silent awe, suddenly exploded into a wave of cheering as Earth's newest hero was born and they where saved from certain death. The cheers soon gave way to screams as the largest of the refugee ships suddenly exploded, creating a chain reaction and causing two others to explode, leaving only the two smallest ships.
A cold laugh echoed through space and chilled the very souls of all those who had sortied to fight as another strange figure emerged out of empty space. This figure resembled the white one only it was primarily black with some dull brown. It also had large bat like wings, a scythe, and strangest of all… a dog shaped head. All this in the strange bug like exoskeleton as the first figure.
The second figure spoke coldly, "You are a fool to turn against us, Volt Renegade." It shifted and pointed it's scythe towards the first figure and growled, "The strong shall rule and the weak will fall, that is nature, that is the way of Bitonia."
"Phantom… Anubis…" Volt growled and spun his blades before racing at the dog like being, "I don't care for the way of Bitonia! I am human! I was born a human and will die as one! I will avenge all those that where killed by the Bitonian Empire and avenge my family!!" His blade slammed into Anubis' scythe and the two began to fight in a furious melee battle. As the two duelled they became a golden flash, Volt, and a red flash, Anubis, and where ever their blades met a massive spark erupted.
Volt's green eyes flashed as he suddenly shot away from Anubis and fired off a barrage of his Volt Gattlings before suddenly slamming back first into the destroyed hull of the largest refugee ship. As he looked to his left he saw a charred doll floating out of the ruin with a pink dress on along with a tiny arm from a human girl. Suddenly his eyes burst open as he gasped and he felt his rage reach boiling point right before the shaft of Anubis' scythe punched through his stomach.
As his blood began to spill out into space Volt gave a gargled moan before falling limp. Anubis released his scythe and watched Volt carefully for a few moments… that had been too easy…
Suddenly the shoulder plates of Volt's armour shot open revealing a small amount of exposed muscle and a large golden sphere in each. Sparks of blue electricity began to arc around the orbs as golden energy gathered from all around as Volt glared at Anubis with pure hatred. The dark warrior backed away in surprise and roared, "YOU FOOL!! AT THIS RANGE YOU'LL…!!!"
It was too little too late as Volt let out the enrage roar, "VOLT… BREAKKEEERRR!!!!" with a flash and roar the built up energy within the orbs erupted forth and pushed Volt back with the recoil pushing him straight through the hull of the ruined ship. To the total shock of everyone watching the blast itself was so massive that even one of the largest ships in any of the fleets of any military power would have enough room to fit a few friends inside the beam.
As the yellow beams light faded a collective feeling of terror overwhelmed all those present as Anubis emerged from within the beam completely unharmed thanks to a hastily deployed energy field. He looked down at the exhausted Volt and growled, "Wrong move…"
He spread his wings and Volt let out a gasp as within the outline of the wings the very universe seemed to be caged within. A bright red light seemed to gather within the wings as Volt managed to gasp, "Aw… Hell…"
"PHANTOM… BREAKKEEERRR!!!" Anubis roared unleashing the gathered energy in a beam twice as large as Volt's directly at the immobilized white warrior.
Volt screamed as the beam struck him head on and began to tear away at his body. He lost his grip on his disintegrating weapon as the beam began to eat away at his armour. The out shell began to corrode and break away revealing the weaker black layer. He scream grew louder as he felt the energy reach his muscles and organs and he was certain he was on the brink of death…
Suddenly a soft feminie voice cut through the pain, "Please… don't give up… I need you… Z…"
As the red light of Anubis' beam faded the dark warrior turned towards the gathered Mobile Suits ready to kill each and every one of them. As he readied his scythe he felt a sudden pain erupt from his chest and looked down only to stare in shock at the sight of Volt's blade sticking out of his chest. He looked behind himself at the almost entirely black body of Volt in shock and growled and gasped.
Only half of Volt's face plate remained revealing his bared teeth as he glared angrily at Anubis. Several areas where spilling blood into space including a rather deep diagonal wound on his left cheek which Anubis could actually see teeth through. Only the very back and the spine retained it's armour in it's fullest.
Anubis barely managed a gasp of, "How…?"
Volt simply replied coldly, "I can't die yet… I still… have to…"
He moved closer to Anubis' head and with an almost psychotic grin growled, "I still have to fuck you in the arse!!"
With that said he lost consciousness and began to drift away from the injured Anubis. As Anubis watched the unconscious warrior drift away his eyes narrowed and wonder, he could kill the fool now but there was something that made him want to see just how far this boy could go. He muttered, "So… Mark Six… You wish for a little more time… So be it… But we will… return!" With that Anubis closed his wings around himself and vanished from sight.
