Duo: The Great Destroyer Never Again
Chapter 9
The limo sped quickly toward the ornate building. In the back seat Vice Foreign Minister Releena Peacecraft Yui frantically tried to gather her thoughts. The senate would want war. She despised war and had hoped that the outcome of the Marimaia War would put some sense into people.
She would be forced to forgo her pacifism views, again, and bend to the will of the Senate. Each would wish to fight. Not for the good of the Earth Sphere United Nations, she reflected bitterly, but for the retention of their own petty holdings. Sighing again she stared out the window as the senate hall loomed nearer.
Suddenly the building was rocked by an explosion. Red and orange flame came spewing from the side of the building in a roiling fireball. The aid who was chauffeuring her swerved to the side of the road, narrowly avoiding a piece of falling masonry. The building trembled under the strain, then collapsed into a heap of rubble.
Releena gasped and stumbled out of the car. Standing there, silhouetted by the fires, all she could think of was how close she had been to being inside. Then other thoughts entered her mind. the government had been effectively decapitated, what would she do now?
Trembling she fell to her knees and began to sob in furry as smoke and dust fled into the red night sky before her.

Duo sat on his bunk and watched the news feed on his room's television. A stiff uncomfortable looking reporter was babbling on and on about the threat of violence from Oz. Then he put a hand to his ear, receiving some new information. Duo perked up his ears and began to listen.
" -have just received a report that there was a bombing in the Senate hall today. Our correspondent will be arriving at the scene shortly. Again we have just received this information. As of yet we have no ideas of the damage or the possibility of survivors. We're told that Vice Foreign Minister Peacecraft Yui was going to make an address, however we do not know if she was, in fact, in the building at the time of the attack. There are conflicting reports as to her whereabouts."
Duo stared stunned at the television set. Above him he heard Trent give a small gasp of surprise. Frowning hard, he refocused on the screen.
Now it was showing a different reporter standing in front of a pile of glowing rubble and ash. Fire officials and police milled about, attempting to control the disaster and the crowd at the same time. Gray whisps of smoke drifted lazily into the dark sky. "As you can see from the scene behind me, the devastation is complete. We have confirmed, however, that the Vice Foreign Minister is all right. She arrived on the scene as it happened, miraculously escaping major injury. There is much speculation as to whether she was the target or if the entire-"
Disgusted, Duo turned off the set. Releena was all right at least. Thank God for small favors.
Trent's head peered down from the top bunk looking extremely worried. "Duo, what the hell are we going to do now?!"
Duo frowned up at him. "Proceed as planned," he paused, "And pray. Pray very hard."
Swallowing nervously Trent nodded. his head disappeared from view.
Duo's comm buzzed, "Commander Walker speaking."
"This is General Cobalt. Join me in the officer's mess. There's someone I'd like you to meet."
"Yes sir." Duo thumbed off the comm. Glancing up at Trent he said, "I'll be back later. Stay sharp." With that he strode into the corridor and headed towards a service ladder. He felt like getting the exercise.
A few minutes later he arrived in the mess hall. General Cobalt was already seated at the head of the table. Smiling he indicated the chair to his right. Nodding somberly, Duo sat down.
Cobalt cleared his throat. "I take it you've seen the news?"
Smiling faintly, Duo nodded.
"I'd like to introduce to you my special agent on Earth. They are very close to the Gundam pilots. I've trusted them with the task of causing as much confusion for Earth's defenders as possible. They supplied me with the information to attack Duo Maxwell's shuttle. Inconveniently, he wasn't aboard. They carried out the assassination of Heero Yui, and orchestrated the Senate hall bombing."
The hatch in the back of the room hissed open, revealing a silhouette of a slight figure among the shadows. Duo pulled the brim of his officer's cap a bit lower, partially covering his eyes.
"She has been appropriately given the codename Agent: Cancer. Eating the enemy away from the inside."
Dorothy Catilona stepped into the light.

Aboard the L1 colony a small force of mobile suits had gathered. An old Talgeese crouched in a bay surrounded by fifteen or so white Torus models.
Lucrezia Noin and her piecemeal squadron sat on a bunch of crates and chatted idly. Sipping her coffee, she starred at the blue green disk revolving before her. Now it was just a matter of waiting...
