Alright here's chapter seven for you my readers and now for the disclaimer: I do not Own any part of Gundam wing, Seed, or any part of the Mobile Suit Gundam Franchise.

Alright, we left last chapter with the fiasco that was New Edwards well I think Heero has a solution to the problem …

Heero walked over and looked at the page. "Mission Accepted."

You heard here first guys Heero's gone wild!

"… Oh Ald, catch…" *Tink*

OH SHIT *Hits the dirt as the Grenade goes off*

Am I in one peace? *Checks self* ok I'm alive and have everything in one piece… WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT?

"I think it was a grenade" Nicol said as he examined the shrapnel in the wall

Well before any more explosives get chucked my way on with the show.

Ch 7

The crew that wasn't among Murdoch's engineers got used to their new uniforms quick enough and needless to say the officers stood out from the enlisted with each having their own personal colors in comparison to the standard blue and gold of the enlisted.

Heero even for the sake and sanity of the other pilot's dawned his it was a Prussian blue with bronze braiding and a light lilac vest. He opened the door to the briefing room to see Duo and Quatre sitting in uniforms very similar to his.

Murrue smiled as he entered "Alright now that all the pilots are here, the mission is simple the Taurus suits are being transported by two routs by land and by air we shall be attacking both to be sure they are destroyed. One is probably a fake though we cannot allow this to distract us."

Heero nodded "Alright then how are we dividing this?"

Mu got up "Were going to send in two to each point to start, when they find the real rout we will attack with the others to bring it down. If what we found out about these Taurus suits is true that they can override the commands of the pilot and kill they must be stopped."

Duo nodded "Well now that we have a plan who's going where?"

"Quatre if you would?" Murrue asked

Quatre nodded and stood from his seat and walked to the topical map on the screen "I like Heero, and this ship have a support team, they are of the country my colony is mostly inhabited by… The Maganac Corps, they will be supporting the land rout along with myself and Duo, Heero and the Archangel will take the Air rout, I was also able to contact another pilot, his name is Trowa Barton he will be joining the air rout assault."

A knock came on the door, Heero blinked "So that's what we took on this morning, I was wondering why we took on a transport truck."

The door opened and a boy a little taller than Heero with his hair hiding one of his eyes entered.

Quatre smiled "Trowa it's good to see you again."

He nodded and took a seat next to Dearka.

Mu smiled "So you're the pilot of that red machine that almost blew everyone away at the New Edwards base."

Trowa sighed "I'll say the same thing that I said back then the only reason you were in the way was that you were all bunched up."

Mu nodded "makes sense so the Deathscythe and Sandrock are taking the land while the Wing and his machine take the air can his stay up for that long?"

Trowa shook his head "The Heavyarms isn't designed for prolonged flight but those carriers will have to refuel at this base, when they go in for decent drop me off and I'll take it from there."

Murrue smiled "Alright, then Kira, Athrun, Yzak, Dearka and Nicol will stay in reserve until we find out which rout is the real one."

The pilots nodded "Alright dismissed, Man you machines and standby for launch." Murrue said as the pilots stood and all but Trowa saluted and left for their flight prep.

The Sandrock and the Maganac corps moved to where the land transport rout was, it was by train and it would be simple enough to stop the train.

Quatre smiled "Alright looks like we're ahead of the transport, let's cut the tracks."

The Sandrock made its way up the embankment to the double tracks where he saw the approaching transport train. He raised the shottles of the Sandrock to cut the tracks when the train roof opened revealing a large cannon which fired and hit the back of the Sandrock.

"Master Quatre!" the commander of the Maganac's yelled as the train closed Quatre's eyes widened "There's no way I could survive getting hit. Guess this is goodbye Sandrock."

The Deathscythe roared up the embankment a short distance behind the train and latched onto one of the cars "Oh no I ain't lettin you run my buddy Quatre over!" Duo yelled as he punched the thrusters of the Deathscythe to max and pulled the train off the tracks bringing it down.

The cars slammed into the dunes the Deathscythe pushed its way up from under a destroyed railcar in the middle "Hey Quatre you alright?" Duo asked as he looked around.

"Ya I'm fine but this is the decoy. Archangel land is the decoy I repeat Land is the decoy rout." Quatre said as hatches on all the rail cars opened and Leo's stood up from the cars aiming their machine guns at the two Gundam's.

"Rodger that Quatre, Heero, Trowa air is the actual rout don't let them get away shoot them down." Miriallia said as Trowa launched from above the cloud cover.

"Rodger that Miriallia, they won't escape." Heero said as he rolled out towards the ground.

Xxx

"Zero one spotted headed for air rout with zero three mam." An OZ soldier said in the command post to Lady Une.

"Alright remember the plan force zero three to run out of ammo then bombard it!" Lady Une said as Noin nodded.

"Zechs unit zero one has been spotted headed for the air rout."

Zechs smiled "Rodger that Noin, I'll intercept him half way." He flicked a few switches and the Tallgeese slid out of the OZ carrier. Did a roll and rocketed towards the battlefield.

Xxx

Trowa fired through several Aries suits as he approached the fueling point for the air transport rout. "They have heavy resistance on this rout whenever you're ready Archangel I wouldn't mind the backup."

"Rodger that Trowa, Dearka, Kira Launch and provide support." Commander Badgirule said as the Strike was loaded up with the Launcher pack and the Buster was loaded onto the other catapult.

Miriallia smiled "Be careful out there Dearka." Miriallia said as Dearka nodded.

"Say Miriallia maybe we can go catch a drink after this is over or something I mean next time were in port that is." Dearka said with a grin on his face.

Tolle glared at the controls for the Archangel "Elsman I heard that now, quit hitting on my girlfriend."

The Archangel shuddered as Dearka launched only to roll up in front of the bridge "Hay Tolle get a good look of this!" Dearka said as he rolled the Buster around and flipped Tolle off with the Gundam.

"Up yours Elsman!" Tolle said over the intercom.

"Ensign Koenig and Ensign Elsman if you would please shut up and focus on the battle afterwards you can argue like little kids all you want." Murrue said and both of them shut up.

"This is Kira, Launching." The Strike launched out and both the buster and the strike broke through the clouds headed towards the Heavyarms.

Xxx

"Reading two more mobile suits getting visual from Aires unit four." An image appeared on the screen showing the Buster and the Strike falling towards the Heavy arms.

Lady Une nodded "Alright how's Zechs dealing with zero one?"

Xxx

Heero looked at his screen "So it is here. The Prototype Leo, Tallgeese, no matter any pilot but a Gundam pilot couldn't handle it." He raised the buster rifle and took aim on the Tallgeese that was approaching.

Zechs smirked as he closed point blank and before Heero could get a shot off he switched directions and rocketed vertical.

"He's fast." Heero noted as the Tallgeese opened fire from above with his rail gun.

"We have no need for these things in honorable combat." The Tallgeese lowered itself to the ground and ejected the rifle from its arm, and drew a beam saber.

"Alright, I'll play it your way. Archangel I'm engaging the Tallgeese at my location send all the others as support for Trowa I'm ahead of his position if I need backup they can cut their way through to me." Heero said as the Tallgeese charged bringing the beam saber down onto the shield of the Wing.

Zechs smirked "Not bad, though you still are lacking experience." He thought as the Wing parried an attack, and then jumped back with its thrusters.

"I believe that I have won this battle, I feel no fear whatsoever. I'll defeat you without taking Tallgeese to its full limit."

Xxx

Lady Une blinked as she watched the lines get pushed back one after another from the advancing Gundam's "Who knew Gundam's were so powerful? Get space fortress Barge online!"

Noin looked up "Space fortress barge?"

Une walked over to a comm. Station and picked up a communicator.

"Calling all Gundam pilots, we are now positioned to stage an all out missile attack on the colonies; we have seized all missile satellites from the former alliance, it's reasonable to say we control the destiny of all colonies. This isn't a bluff I demand all pilots to surrender at once and hand over your Gundam's."

Xxx

Zechs glared "What a time for tasteless tactics, Noin get me colonel Une now!"

Murrue glared "They have us with our hands tied if we do anything the colonies will take the hit. Dr. J was right OZ really does fight with dirty tactics."

Yzak appeared on the bridge monitor "Captain I wish to launch let me deal with that arrogant commander."

"No Ensign Joule if we do anything we are putting many millions of innocent lives in danger. We don't want this world to see a bloody Valentine." Murrue said which caught the attention of all the other pilots from the ship.

Xxx

The screens in the base and across the battlefield scrambled for a second as their monitors were hacked and Dr. J appeared "Attention OZ, I never would have imagined that you people could be so incredibly foolish. The space colonies have no intention of fighting OZ, this is my personal battle that I am staging against you."

Une smirked "So the rebel finally shows his face. Do we have a location?"

A OZ soldier nodded "It's coming from a regular line from outer space. Transmission origin colony C 1013"

Dr. J continued "In your eyes inhumane moves such as attacking the colonies are just. If that's what it takes to come out victorious right, I have no choice but to surrender."

"Very well your surrender is accepted abandon your Gundam's immediately." Une said looking at the screen.

Heero got up and opened his cockpit he grabbed a wire next to his seat. He stepped out and looked at the Tallgeese.

"What the hell is Heero doing?" Athrun asked as he looked.

"A boy the Gundam pilot is nothing more than a little boy?" Zechs looked baffled as he watched Heero stand there.

"I surrender but I will not hand over the Gundam's, I repeat I surrender but I will not hand over the Gundam's." Dr. J Said again.

Heero raised his right hand holding the cable "Mission accepted." He pushed the self detonation switch.

The wing shone brighter than the morning sun then went up in a massive explosion. Heero was blown off of the open cockpit as the destroyed Gundam collapsed. He tumbled until he came to a dead stop and bled onto the ground in shock.

Une and Noin were in shock looking at the screen "Zero one just…" Noin started "Self Detonated." Une finished in shock.

"That young pilot sacrificed his life." Zechs said as he looked at the destroyed suit and the semi comatose Heero on the ground.

"He self detonated in exchange for the colonies." Une looked horrified.

"He sacrificed his life without a second thought." Noin watched as Zero Three approached.

Trowa opened a line to all other Gundam pilots "Can you hear me we must leave here at once. Without resolutions we cannot fight. He's accepted all orders. I'm returning to the ship have medical on standby."

"Rodger that Trowa, but were bringing the Archangel to you Heero has to be in critical condition, all Units converge on Trowa's position." Murrue ordered as the Archangel breached the cloud cover.

The ship hovered over the battlefield as the Gundam's retreated to the Ship they fell back and retreated.

Xxx

The pilots all sat in the lounge except for Heero who was in critical condition in the medical bay. Duo paced "Damn it, it's all because they bluffed with the colonies."

Nicol walked over to the piano opened up the cover and started to play a slow mournful tune. Quatre looked up "Hey what's that you're playing Nicol?"

"Something I feel is appropriate, It's called the theme of tears." Nicol said as he continued to play.

"Quit playing would ya he's not dead yet we shouldn't be playing requiems for friends who are still alive." Dearka said as he got up.

Nicol smiled and nodded "It's my way to cope with this, if I didn't I'd be out of my mind right now."

Athrun nodded "I know what you mean he's one of the youngest of us and the best of us, and he followed orders till that…"

Xxx

Zechs stood next to Noin looking at the destroyed remains of the Wing, "We've collected what we could, but the important parts have all been destroyed."

"I thought so, that's why he self destructed." Zech's stood and looked at the machine.

Noin nodded "Even Gundam's can end up as mere scraps of metal, or rather scraps of Gundanium."

"This Gundam design was based on the Tallgeese, so the fundamental technology for the Tallgeese should be applicable." Zechs said as he smiled

"Colonel?" Noin looked puzzled.

"Yes Noin would you mind if I took this Gundam with me to the Lake Victoria base?" Zechs asked as he walked forward.

"huh? Are you planning to fix it?" Noin asked as Zechs knelt down and picked up one of the flight controls.

"Why bother?" Noin asked as she walked forward.

"Perhaps I'm just preoccupied with that pilot." Zechs said as he looked at the control stick.

"But the Gundam pilot died didn't he?" Noin asked as she watched.

"I just have this feeling that he's alive. It's pretty well impossible after that explosion but I hope that he is alive. As a fellow mobile suit pilot he is someone I was destined to do battle with." Zechs said as he looked up to the suit again.

Relena stepped out of the black limo and walked over to the escalator to the main building of the Romefeller foundation.

"Excuse me miss do you have an invitation?" The greeter asked

Relena smiled "No" she walked slowly

"I'm sorry miss this party is open only to invited guests." The man said as another man came up the escalator.

"Relena you're early." The elder gentleman in the deep purple uniform with a purple sash said.

He looked and straightened up "Marquise Wayridge, I'm terribly sorry I had no idea she was a relation of yours."

"Not a problem, shall we go Relena the party's about to begin." He said as he led her into the building.

They danced on the floor for a bit after they entered "Relena I can see the Peacecraft influence in you."

"Do you know the Peacecrafts?" Relena asked as she danced with the older man.

"yes of course I do." Wayridge responded as he stopped.

They made their way off of the dance floor and to a table Relena pulled out a chair for the elder gentleman.

"Thank you, yes I was very close with the Peacecrafts the monarchy of the Sanc kingdom. Till thirteen years ago when the family was overthrown."

"why was the Peacecraft family overthrown sir?" Relena asked

"It seems absurd but while some people hope for peace others try to gain through disputes. The former was the Peacecraft family and the latter was the earth sphere alliance." Wayridge said as he looked over his hands.

"so you mean their talk of peace interfered with the alliances objectives?" Relena asked.

"Yes and even the Romefeller foundation who had different objectives than the alliance even started developing weapons. Blasted OZ…" Wayridge said.

"OZ?" Relena looked puzzled.

"I invited Treize today to figure out what he was trying to pull off but he sends some representative." He said as he looked to the stairs

The music slowed to a stop as Lady Une entered "What's wrong, don't worry I'm a guest too."

They approached as the music started playing. "Roses don't belong on military uniforms. A rose is a flower more suitable for someone kind like you Relena." Wayridge said as Une stopped at their table looking at him.

"Marquise Wayridge, My name is Lady Une and I come on behalf of Treize Kushrenada, I need to discuss some things with you."

"Yes but before that would you give me that rose of yours I'd love to give it to my granddaughter." Marquise Wayridge said as he gestured to Relena

"Relena Dorlin? What are you doing here?" Une asked

"Grandfather Roses just don't look good on me either I'd look better soaked in the blood of OZ." she glared as she pulled a gun "Here's for my dad!" she fired twice shooting the rose off of Lady Une. Relena spun and ran.

"Freeze!" one of the soldiers shouted. As he fired a few rounds after her but missed.

"After her!" Une shouted.

Marquise Wayridge stood in her way "Marquise."

"Standing in your way is the only thing I can do! I cannot even come close to matching the courage she's shown." Marquise Wayridge said as other party guests moved in and flanked him to prevent the soldiers from going after her.

Une glared "How dare you all?"

"Were all great fans of that girl." Wayridge said with a smile.

Xxx

Relena escaped out the back and down the alley out into the street she made her way down only to be found by an OZ search party "There she is!"

One of the soldiers said as the jeep pulled up she turned to run only to come face to face with two Leo's guns pointed at her. She drew her pistol as the soldiers rushed her; they grabbed her before Relena could fire.

"Silly girl keep still!" one of the soldiers said.

"Let me go!" Relena said as a female officer pulled up on a Motorcycle.

"Who are you?" one of the soldiers asked

"I'll be taking care of her from now on."

"We have special orders from Colonel Une, I can't take orders from you Lieutenant." He said as Noin raised her pistol and shot his hat off his head.

"If you're concerned about authority these are orders from his Excellency. You satisfied?"

"Yes Lieutenant excuses our misunderstanding" the soldiers saluted and returned to the jeep.

The Leo's turned and walked away as Noin walked up to Relena. "Your being reckless I wonder who your temperament takes after?" Noin asked as she smiled.

Relena leveled her gun at Noin "You're part of OZ aren't you?" Noin smirked as she lifted her pistol and shot the OZ symbol off of the soldier's hat he left on the ground.

Relena looked puzzled "So who are you?"

Noin bowed "I have come to help you Miss. Relena Peacecraft."
