Hello!

Okay its been about two months since I've updated, I have a good reason though.

I was actually out of the U.S at my uncle's for six weeks, plus, I lost the flashdrive that contained all of my stories... yeah so I had to paste all of the chapters I posted on Fanfic and paste it onto a word document. I lost more than a quarter of what I had written for this chapter and I forgot what I had written so I basically had to start from scratch for this chapter. Plus, I lost about ten stories or story ideas I was working on due to the fact that I lost my beautiful flashdrive on a train from France to Germany... poo.

Well I am now proud to say that I am staring my college career this fall and I am sort of nervous for what's going to happen from here on out. I know that college is simply a new chapter in my life, but I can't help but feel all jittery and nervous. I am excited to for it though. It just sometimes feels so unreal that's all. I sometimes feel like I am still a highschool senior working on college applications but now, I am officially a college student.

Okay, I think this is enough blabbing about my life. So about this chapter... well... okay just read it... that's all I'm going to say

Disclaimer: I do NOT own Gundam 00 of Gundam 00P or any of the other Gundam series, if I did, I would not be writing fanfiction, would I?

Well, I hope you guys enjoy this very overdue chapter and I will try to update at least once a month... I make no promises though.

Hope you enjoy!


In one of the many meeting rooms of the Ptlomey, Marina Ismail sat down as she looked at the four members of Celestial Being in front of her. The four men all were dressed in a uniform but she noticed that the uniform was customized to everyone with its colors. While Setsuna's was a dark blue, another meister with purple hair and red eyes wore a dark purple version of the uniform while the two other male crew members wore a dark gray or black version of the uniforms. Smiling, Marina bowed her head at the people who had saved not only her but her country as well.

"For coming to my rescue and for bringing an end to the terrible civil war in Azadistan, you all have my undying gratitude. The way you dealt with the situation without turning to violence was in deed magnificent,"

"That' s all in the past. What do you plan to do now?" questioned Setsuna and Marina paused before she looked up with determination in her sapphire blue eyes.

"I will return to Azadistan," and the rest of the members in the room looked at her in shock.

"The Federation might come," stated Setsuna and Tieria nodded before he stepped forward.

"They will probably use you as an excuse to intervene in Azadistan," and Marina's eyes narrowed as she tightened her grip on her cup.

"Since Azadistan refused to join the Federation, the rest of the world has abandoned us. The economy has failed. And now that Rassa, the conservative leader has passed the away, the fight with the Reformists has reached a stalemate" and Marina paused before she looked up at the four men before her with a pleading gaze. "But, that is why I am needed,"

Setsuna stared at Marina for a few seconds before he closed his eyes for a second.

"I understand, we'll have Ptlomey set a course for Azadistan," and Tieria looked over at the raven-haired meister.

"But Setsuna-," he started when both Ian and Lasse started to head towards the door.

"Roger that Setsuna!" reported Ian while Lasse just replied that he was heading towards the bridge. When the door open, Milena popped her head in as she looked at both Marina and Setsuna with a questioning gaze.

"Excuse me for asking, but, by any chance, are you two , like, lovers?" she questioned only to see both Marina and Setsuna stare at her blankly.

"We're not,"

"That is not so," Milena's eyes faltered before she looked up.

Oh, I guess then that my female intuition was wrong,"

...

Inside Cherudim's cockpit, Lockon's eyes narrowed as he took aim and shot at the incoming mobile suits. When his aim missed, the green-eyed meister gritted his teeth before he aimed and fired again, hitting a mobile suits' head destroying it. The screen turned black and Lockon sighed as he let go of the rifle in his hand and he looked at Haro as the stimulater shut off.

"Haro, what's my hit rate?" and the mechanical robot flapped its ears/wings.

"78%! 78%!" piped up Haro and Lockon sighed as he climbed out of the cockpit into the hangar.

"Can't seem to reach my brother's level," he stated when he saw Feldt standing near Cherudim staring at him. The minute his eyes met hers, the pinkette turned red before she snapped around and held her breath. Lockon just looked at her before he removed his helmet and started to approach.

"Hi, is something the matter?" he questioned and Feldt quickly shook her head.

"Nothing's wrong," she stated as she kept her head from facing Lockon who leaned forward.

"Your name's Feldt right? I keep feeling that you're always looking at me, why is that?" and Feldt's eyes widened before she turned her head away as she stuttered for a reply when Haro started to bounce up and down.

"Feldt likes Lockon! Feldt likes Lockon!" the orange robot piped and both Feldt and Lockon's eyes widend as Feldt turned around, her face red as she looked down at the robot all flustered.

"H-Haro!" she stuttered .

"I'm not my brother you know," stated Lockon and Feldt looked up at him before she nodded her head.

"I know," and the pinkette closed her eyes as she gripped her hands to her chest. "I know," she repeated when Lockon reached forward and touched Feldt's chin and turned her head towards his. Feld't blue-green eyes widened as Lockon leaned foward as a smile appeared on his face.

"But, if you okay with that, we could spend some time together," and the meister placed his lips over Feldt's, who in response froze as her entire face went red. When he pulled away, Lockon smiled down at her. "We can head to my room later if you feeling up for-," but he never got to finish as Feldt swung her hand back and slapped him. Tears formed around the girl's eyes as she glared at Lockon before she ran out of the hangar. Lockon remained silent as Haro jumped up and down.

"You got dumped! You got dumped!" and Lockon turned around and headed towards the oppsite direction.

"I did that to wake her up," and his eyes narrowed as he continued walking. " I wouldn't be able to stand if, if she started to compare me to him,"

...

As news of Celestial Being's plan to go to Azadistan reached the ears of Kataron, all the members stationed at the Middle Eastern base scrambled to assemble a team.

"Gene-1 reported it, Celestial Being is headed towards Azadistan," reported one of the members and another turned his head towards Klaus.

"Klaus, are you really going to do this?" and Klaus nodded as he looked at the map before him.

"Celestial being is a neccesity in our plans, furthermore, if we help them, we will be able to protect Princess Marina," and he looked up at Shirin and reassured her worried gaze. "We will save her," and Shirin slowly nodded her head before she looked down as she remembered when she had left Azadistan. She remebered how Marina begged her not to leave but she had refused. She had already seen what the world had turned into and fixing Azadistan wouldn't be enough to change the world. Without turning back, she had left. She had left her precious friend and her homeland behind.

Shirin's gaze fell before she looked back at Klaus and the others.

"Please let me join you and the troops," and everyone in the room snapped up and Klaus' face furrowed.

"It's too dangerous!" and Shirin stepped forward with a pleading look on her face.

"I promise not to get in the way, I'm begging you Klaus!"

...

Staring out at the water from the meeting room she was in, Marina's gaze fell.

"There has to be something that I can do," she whispered when the door behind her opened and Setsuna walked in.

"There you are," and Marina turned around to greet the Krugis meister. He noticed the hesitant look on her face. "What's wrong?" and Marina paused before she looked at the meister.

"Setsuna, won't you come with me? To Azadistan," and Setsuna's eyes widened for a fraction of a second before they instantly narrowed again. "I want to rebuild my country into a place where there will be no more conflicts and fighting and I want you to help me,"

"I can't do that," answered Setsuna shaking his head causing the Azadistani princess to step forward.

"Why?" she questioned and Setsuna looked at her before he answered.

"The only thing that I can do is fight,"

"Don't say such sad things! Setsuna, there is nothing to be gained from fighting! You only lose the things that were precious to you." and the raven haired meister paused before he walked past her towards the window.

"That's how I felt before I joined Celestial Being, but now its different, someone," and he looked down at his hand. His eyes narrowed when he saw the bump on his left hand before he removed the glove and stared down at the star ring. Marina's gaze followed his and her eyes widened when she saw the ring on his hand.

"Someone taught me that there are things that are born from destruction. Gundam will put an end to all the injustice in the world, for the sake of the future," and he turned to looked at Marina with a determined gaze.

"That's my reason for fighting,"

...

As his words entered her head and started to make sense, Rina's eyes narrowed at the green haired man before her when she and Leif both heard laughter. Turning their heads, they saw Fon sprawled on the floor while laughing his ass off.

"Fon!" hissed Rina and a few minutes later, Fon finally stood up and stared at Leif.

"Look here, Mr, I believe that you have the wrong person," and Leif paused before he reopened his eyes. Both Rina and Fon's eyes widened when they saw that Leif's eyes were glowing. But unlike Rina's eyes his were glowing a light gold with multiple specks of colors throughout the pupil.

"But that's-," started Rina and Leif smiled.

'Now will you believe me?' a voice ran in her head and Rina's eyes widened as her eyes started to glow a dark gold hue as Leif's voice filled her head.

Leif saw Fon staring at him with wide eyes before he closed eyes his eyes returned to their normal shade of purple.

"Will you believe me now?" he asked towards the blonde man who in return narrowed his eyes at him before he turned to his comrade.

Fon looked over at Rina to see her wide eyes staring at Leif before he ran over and grabbed her arm.

"Come on, we don't have time for this," he stated, snapping Rina out of her stupor and she looked up and slowly nodded her head at him but Fon saw that her eyes were glowing before he turned back to Leif.

"Bastard, what did you do to her!" and Leif only smiled for a bit.

"Nothing, just showed her what it will be like if you two joined us," and Fon's eyes widened before he grabbed Rina by her shoulders.

"Hey, snap out of it!" he yelled but Rina's eyes remained the way they were and Fon gritted his teeth before he looked back at Leif.

"Whatever hold you have over her, stop it before I kill you," and Leif smiled before he closed his eyes and a few seconds later, Rina gasped as her eyes returned back to their normal blue-violet color. Her body stumbled and she almost collapsed before Fon caught her.

"Hey!" he yelled when he saw the exhausted look on Rina's face as she leaned towards him before she slowly opened her eyes and looked up.

"I'm fine," she whispered when she suddenly screamed and collapsed onto the ground. Fon's eyes widened as he knelt down next to her.

Leif watched the two as Rina tried to hold back her screams as the spasms intensified. When she fished in her pockets for the pills, Leif's eyes narrowed as he saw Rina swallow two of the pills before he walked over and grabbed the bottle from her hands.

"What the hell!" yelled Fon as he saw the green-haired Innovator staring at the medicine before he looked down at Rina who looked up at him with exhaustion all over her face.

"If you join us, you will never have to take these pills again," causing the coordinator to snap up at him.

"What?!"

"You are required to take these pills to relieve or slow down the deterioration of your body from all the chemicals you were given since birth. Once you connect to Veda, the nano machines that were implanted in your body will be activated and you will never have to deal with those spasm fits of yours,"

"Veda?" and Leif paused before he smiled.

"I forgot, Veda is the main system that created us, without it, none of us," and Leif paused as he looked at both Fon and Rina ." Wouldn't exist," and Rina's eyes narrowed before she stood up and faced the green-haired Innovator.

"You keep calling me an Innovator, sorry to let you down, but the last time I checked, I am a coordinator, my genes were altered before I was even born," and Leif looked down and smiled.

"Yes, I have been told that you were called the 'Ultimate Coordinator', but that just proves my point. The only reason you were able to survive all those tests and chemicals done to your body is due to the fact that you are a more advanced being than a normal human being. Even coordinators wouldn't have been able to survive with all the chemicals and tests the facilities ran on you. Also, you quantum brainwaves are much stronger and more precise than a normal coordinators, in fact, your quantum brainwaves are so strong, they're probably on par with our creator," and both Rina and Fon looked at Leif.

"Creator?" and Leif nodded.

"He is also an Innovator, but unlike us, he was placed under a different mission,"

"So, what the hell do you want with us? There is no way in hell that I'm joining the A-Laws and I'm pretty sure that she," and Fon jerked his thumb towards Rina, " Will never join that group either,"

Leif smiled again as he closed his eyes and let out a small sigh.

"I'm afraid that I didn't make myself clear, I am not here to recruit you for the A-Laws, my mission is different from that, I am here to recruit you two as one of the Innovators that will prepare for the dialogues to come,"

"Dialogues to come?" questioned Rina and Leif nodded before he looked around.

"I already have two others with me," and suddenly, the sound of mobile suits entered Rina's ears as she and Fon both looked up to see a GnX machine heading towards them. Both of them tensed when Rina saw Leif smile at the incoming mobile suit.

"Speak of the devil," and a few minutes later, the machine landed before the cockpit opened and two figures dressed in pilot suits exited. As the two men descended from the cockpit, Rina's eyes began to glow as she observed the two men.

Once they were on the ground, Leif looked at the two helmeted figure before he looked back at Rina and Fon.

"Allow me to introduce you," started Leif as one of the men took off his helmet revealing short black hair and playful blue eyes.

"This is Telicyra Hefi," and the said man looked at both Rina and Fon and smiled.

"Pleasure to meet you," and he offered the two a small bow before his eyes fixed itself at Rina. He looked at her up and down before he walked over and placed a hand over her forehead. Rina's eyes widened at his actions but the serious look in his glowing light gold eyes and quantum brainwaves assured that everything was going to be alright. The innovator looked down at Rina and he saw how her eyes started to glow a dark gold hue before he pulled back and fished around in his pockets for something. When he found the item he was looking for, he handed Rina a bottle of blue pills that had a white circle in the center. Rina looked down at the bottle before she looked up at him with a questioning gaze.

"Its to help your spasms," and Rina's eyes widened at him.

"Did I forget to mention that Telicyra is a famous doctor?" and Telicyra nodded before he rubbed his head.

"I did a quick evaluation of your health and condition a second ago, without proper treatment or your awakening from Veda, your body will malfunction in a short period of time," and Rina looked down at the pills in her hand before she looked up at the doctor again. He offered her a small smile before he looked over at Fon, whose red eyes were glaring at him. Telicyra let out a nervous laugh before he approached Fon and held out his hand towards him. Fon's eyes narrowed even more before he slapped the doctor's hands away.

Leif noticed the animosity coming from Fon before he turned back the the other helmeted figure.

"And this is Lars Grise," and when the man took off his helmet, Rina's eyes widened before she took a step back, fear evident in her eyes. The minute Lars saw Rina, his eyes narrowed at her and he saw how she took a step back as her eyes were full of terror. Fon also noticed Rina's actions before he looked back at Lars.

"Y-you," stuttered Rina as she kept taking steps back. Lars just looked at her with a blank expression before he turned his head.

"Its been a while," he stated and everyone else's eyes widened as they looked from Rina to Lars with confusion.

Rina felt terror seize her as her eyes never left Lars. He was the one who had tried to kill her. He tried to kill Sora. He was the reason why she had to run. He was the reason why she had been on the verge of death.

He was the one who had killed Setsuna.

:/

"Mama, look here!" shouted Sora as he pointed at the flower blooming on the ground. Walking out of the house, Rina looked down at her son and smiled when she saw a yellow flower blooming on the ground. Kneeling down, she looked at the flower before she looked back at Sora.

"Sora, do you know what this flower is?" she questioned and Sora paused for a second before he looked back at her.

"Dandelion?" he questioned and Rina smiled when she saw the confidence in the three year old's eyes before she looked down at the flower.

"It's a renascentia," and Sora gazed at the flower.

"A reneascentia?"

Rina nodded before she picked up her son and walked around the house towards the back. When they were behind the house, Rina continued walking until they stood over a cliff. At the bottom, both Rina dn Sora say homes that were demolished and all they could see was endless barren land beyond the destroyed place before them.

"Krugis, papa's homeland," whispered Sora and Rina silently nodded before she looked down at the edge. A yellow flower was blooming on the ground at the edge. Sora saw the flower and he smiled before he looked at Rina who looked out at the destroyed land before her.

"Reneascentia means 'rebirth' in Latin, the fact that it is able to bloom in this land means that the land is coming back to life,"

Sora noddedd before he looked out at the land before him.

"The land is coming back to life," he repeated and Rina smiled at him.

"That's right,"

...

"Sora! Time for dinner!" called Rina as she placed a bowl of soup at the table. Sora ran into the room, his face still wet from washing before he plopped into his seat and started to eat. His blue eyes lit up as he ate the soup and Rina smiled as she wiped away the moisture off his face when she head an abrupt knocking at the front door. She looked up at the door before she turned back to Sora who had also stopped eating.

Her eyes narrowed at the door. Setsuna had left about a week ago. To get to Exia alone would take more than two days and she knew that he wouldn't just take a two day trip just to check if the gundam was alright. He had told her that he would be gone for about a month this time, and other then Setsuna, her and Sora, no one knew that this house existed. They had chosen to live in Krugis for that reason. It was far enough from civlization that they didn't have to worry about the Federation finding them, but it wasn't too far that they couldn't get their groceries and neccesities. All they had to do was drive a two or three hour distance until they were at the nearest town.

Rina looked back at Sora to see his face holding a confused look.

"Papa can't be back this early," and Rina had to smile at his words. Even though he was only three, Sora read at a high school teenager's level and his keen senses helped him out alot. Rina smiled at him before she stood up and headed towards the door.

"Keep eating," and Sora nodded before he continued to eat. At the door, Rina paused for a few seconds before she crack the door a tiny bit. But the second she did, the sound of a gunshot filled her ears before she saw bullet hole in the front door. Her eyes widened before she slammed the door shut and ran towards the kitchen. When she reached the kitchen, she heard the front door being kicked open and footsteps approaching quickly. She saw Sora's horror stricken face before she pulled him into her arms and grabbed the clothes they needed to survive the desert along with her bottle of pills before she ran out of the back door. As she ran, her grip on Sora tightened.

"Mama," he whispered and Rina held him closer.

"Its okay," she whispered when a searing pain hit her shoulder and Rina screamed before she fell onto the ground and Sora flew out of her hands and his body fell onto the sand.

"Sora!" screamed Rina as she quickly stood up before she grimaced at her shoulder before she ran over and picked Sora up. "Are you alright?" she questioned and Sora nodded before his eyes widened at something behind her. Rina whipped around and her eyes widened when she felt the barrel of a gun pointed at her forehead. When she looked up, she saw a man dressed in a long black trenchcoat with a fur lining at the edge. His gray hair fell past his shoulders and she noticed that his eyes were different colors. One gray and the other blue and a scar running down his left eye staring down at her without any emotion before his grip on the gun tightened.

"Who are you?" she whispered and the man ignored her before his eyes narrowed even more.

"What do you want from me?!" she screamed and his gaze went from her to Sora who looked up at him, the boy's blue eyes filled with fear. The man remained silent but he pointed the gun towards Sora and Rina's eyes widened at his actions. When he pulled the trigger, he saw Rina shielding Sora and he saw the bullet embedding itself in her back. Rina held back her screams before she silently placed her hand in her pocket. Her hand gripped the gun in her pocket before she turned around and pointed the gun at the man.

Lars simply stared down at her before he pulled something from his pocket and let it fall onto the ground. When Rina saw the item, her blood ran cold.

The red scarf she had given to Setsuna was tattered and she saw that some portions of the scarf had dark spots. Her eyes widened when she realized that the splatters on the scarf was actually blood and she glared up at the man before her.

"What did you do to him?!" she screamed and Lars saw the fury in the girl's eyes before her pupils dilated and her eyes began to glow a dark gold hue.

Lars inwardly smiled.

'So she is one of them,' he thought before he aimed his gun at her forehead again.

"Its time to die, fake human," and as he started to pull the trigger, Rina snapped up before she kicked his hand causing him to drop his gun. Before he could pick it up, she fired multiple times, hitting his left arm and right leg. He dropped to the ground and he saw the fury in her eyes as she approached him, her grip on the gun tightening. But before she could kill him, he picked up the gun and fired at her, hitting her abdomen. Rina stumbled for a second before she raised her gun and fired at his hand, knocking the gun from his hand before she stumbled over to Sora and picked him up. Taking one last glace at the man, her grip on Sora tightened as she ran.

"Mama," whispered Sora as he looked down at the tattered remains of the red scarf in his hands. Tears began to form around his eyes and Sora looked up to see his mother's wide eyes on him before tears fell down her face and she pulled him close.

"Papa, he's dead isn't he?" he questioned and Rina chocked back a sob as she tightened her grip. Sora's eyes widened at Rina's lack of response before tears fell down his face and he burrowed his face into Rina's chest and started to sob.

"Setsuna," cried Rina as she looked at the scarf in her hands before she collapsed.

:/

Lars looked at Rina and he saw the terror in her eyes disappearing before they were replaced with fury and hatred. Rina's eyes narrowed at him before she lunged forward and tackled him. At the impact of her body, Lars flinched before he felt a pair of hands wrapping around his throat before he saw Rina on top of him, her hands around his throat before she started to tighten her grip.

"Die!" she screamed over and over again as her grip tightened and Lars felt his oxygen being cut off. He saw the desperation in her eyes and he was reminded of the time when his wife, Pity, had died. He had been devastated as well, that was the reason he started to hunt down the Innovators. He wanted them to pay for what they had done. As his windpipe was being crushed, Lars felt tears falling onto his face and he saw tears falling down Rina's dripping onto his face. His eyes widened when he saw that Rina's eyes were glowing. She was reading his mind using her quantum brainwaves. She felt the pain he felt, he saw the hesitation and that was all he needed. Using all the strength he had, he kicked her off of him and as the two scrambled up, Rina's eyes narrowed at him. But before she could attack him again, Fon grabbed her arm and retraining her.

"Let me go!" she screamed and Fon's eyes narrowed at her before his grip on her tightened.

"No can do, not until you calm down," and as he said the words, he looked over to see Leif and Telicyra talking to Lars. His grip tightened on Rina as he felt her struggling even more.

"Fon! Let go of me!" she screamed again and Fon let out a annoyed sigh before he hit the back of Rina's neck knocking her out. As he body crumpled, he caught her and held her up before he turned back to the three Innovators. He saw concern flash through Leif and Telicyra's eyes while Lars remained stoic.

"I didn't think she would be able to calm down," he explained and Leif nodded before he walked over and handed a little device to him.

"When you make your decision, please meet us at this location two weeks from today," and Fon stared at the communicator displaying the location. When he looked up, he saw Leif and the others walking away when Lars suddenly turned around and walked towards him. His red eyes narrowed at the incoming gray-haired Innovator who stopped about three feet from him. Lars looked at Rina's unconscious face before he looked up at Fon.

"When she wakes up, tell her that I am sorry," and Fon's eyes narrowed at him.

"Why don't you tell her that yourself," but Lars ignored him and walked away. When the Innovators were gone, Fon looked down at Rina before he carried her to her machine. Placing her in the cockpit, Fon saw tears falling down her cheeks before he looked away and jumped over to his machine.

Once inside, Fon opened a connection with Kataron to report the mission success.

"Hey! Reporting that the mission was a success!" and he saw the relieved faces on Klaus' face along with every other member's.

"We'll reach the base in about 0600," and Klaus nodded before he smiled and looked at Fon.

"Thank you for your work, things are looking bright for us," and Fon looked at him with narrowed eyes.

"What the hell are ya talkin about?" and Klaus looked up at him and smiled.

"Celestial Being has agreed to meet us,"


So? What did you guys think?

I know that I pulled the characters from Gundam 00P and I'm pretty sure that I kind of screwed up the way things actually go in 00P but hey, its a fanfiction remember?

Anyway, I hope you guys enjoyed this chapter as I go and plan and start on the next chapter.

See you next time!
