SailorStar9: After getting Chapter 25 out, this is Chapter 26 of this fic and the start of Season Two. (Sighs) Guys and girls, is it too hard for you to leave a review, instead of just putting this fic up on your favorited list and story alerts?

Pairings: Tieria/Sasha between Season One and Season Two. Allelujah/Marie and Lockon (Jr.)/Anew in Season Two.

Standard BS Disclaimers: I do not own Sailor Moon, Gundam 00 or the pairings. If I did, the other Senshi would be as powerful as Sailor Moon and kicking MOTD ass more often and VEDA would have least an anti-hacker program installed. The only thing I do own is the plot.

Chapter 26: Victory Song of the Resistance


In the Ptolemaios II's bridge...

"Nothing detected on the E-sensor or the visual cameras." Feldt declared. "It looks like no Federation Forces have been deployed in this airspace."

"Then, let's hurry to the rendezvous point." Lockon urged. "I hear the Katharon supply trucks have already arrived there."

"We'd better thank Katharon for letting us know all about that, right?" Lasse smiled.

"Yeah, I'll tell them." Lockon caught Lasse's knowing grin.

After picking up t he necessary supplies from the Katharon European base...

"Thanks to the supplies from Katharon, we'll be finished with outer hull repairs soon." Ian informed.

"We're be done before the enemy arrives." Lasse assured.

"But we can't use the submersible mode yet." Ian sighed. "And the weapon control system still needs work."

"Good work, but please keep at it." Sumeragi insisted.

"Enemy mobile suits are approaching the ship." Feldt sounded the alert. "Judging from the particle output, enemy forces are probably A-LAWs.

"What are the enemy numbers, Feldt?" Sumeragi asked.

'36 machines in total." Feldt answered.

36 machines?" Lasse echoed.

"They seem to have a new mobile armor, too." Feldt added.

"An all-out war, huh?" Sasha realized.

"It seems so." Sumeragi agreed. "All Gundams, launch in sequence. Ptolemy will take cover behind the mountain range."


In the A-LAWs side...

Kati was shocked when the Ahead units were taken down one after another.

"A firing range greater than the Gadessa?" Revival growled.


Near the edge of the mountain range...

"I'll reduce their numbers with pre-emptive strikes." having activated Cherudim's Trans-Am mode, Lockon tried to shoot down as many Ahead units as he could. "Haro, don't skimp on the particles."

"Roger." Orange Haro chirped. "Roger."

"That's right." Lockon focused. "Targeted and firing."


In the A-LAWs side...

"Gotta admit, that takes a lot of skill." Hilling admitted.

Near the edge of the mountain range...

"Time limit reached." Orange Haro reminded. "Time limit reached."

"I've taken down my share." Lockon took cover behind the rock cluster. "You guys take over until I recharge, Allelujah, Tieria."

"Allelujah, don't let the enemy get close to the Ptolemy." Tieria instructed.

"His Trans-Am must have ended." Hilling surmised.

"We're going straight for the enemy ship." Louise declared.

"Warrant Officer, here comes the Gundams." Andrei informed.

"I see them." Louise spat.

Arios rapid fire took down an approaching Ahead unit, whereas Seravee's cannon blast took out its neighboring mobile suit.

"Your opponents are us." Hilling dodged Arios' fire and retaliated with his GN Vulcans, before shooting off past Seravee and letting Gadessa deal with the heavy-duty Gundam.

With Seravee's GN Field gone, Hilling took the chance to kick the heavily-armed Gundam, allowing Hilling to deal with Tieria.

Higher in the air, Arios used its speed to dodge Hilling's fire, the two opponents then engaged the other in aerial combat.

"Gotta find a chance to hit back..." Tieria was under heavy bombardment by Revival when his radar alerted him of Devine's mobile armor.

Said Empruss mobile armor released one of its grappler arms, the claw penetrating Seravee's GN Field. With its web of wires holding Seravee in place, the Empruss electrocuted the pilot as well.

"Tieria!" Allelujah hurried over, only to be caught by the Empruss' second grappler arm and rendering him immobilized. "The mobile suit teams are going..."

"Haro, the enemy is coming." Lockon told his robotic partner.

"Still charging GN particles." Orange Haro shook its head. "Still charring GN particles."

"Pick up the pace." Lockon pressed when he himself came under fire by the Ahead units.


In the Ptolemaios II's bridge...

"Enemy forces approaching." Feldt related. "0034 until they reach firing range."

"Isn't the Lohengrin ready yet?" Sasha barked.

"The only thing left is the GN Archer." Mileina stated.

"With your permission, I'll take it out." Marie offered.

"But..." Sumeragi tried to stop her.

"Look at the mobile suit..." a familiar Ahead unit appeared on Saji's screen.

"That one was... my machine." Marie gasped.

"Louise!" Saji realized who the pilot was.


Above the Ptolemaios II...

"Commence attack!" Andrei gave the order.


In the A-LAWs side...

"Sasha-hime..." Billy watched his monitor.

"With this, we'll be able to retrieve the Peacecraft Princess." Kati was certain. "An emergency encoded message from headquarters?" a new message popped up on her screen. "What?" she exclaimed.


In the Ptolemaios II's bridge...

"Sumeragi-san." Feldt alerted their commander. "There's a change in the enemy's movements. The particle beams attacks seem to have stopped. All the enemy forces are turning around and leaving this airspace."


Near the edge of the mountain range...

"Did someone save us..." Allelujah was recovering from the electrocution.

"But why..." even Tieria was puzzled.


In the A-LAWs side...

"It's a coup d'état..." Kati realized what was happening. "The Orbital Elevator has been taken over?"
