Last Midnight

Last Midnight

Prologue: Vast Midnight

After Colony 199 July 9th. Welcome to Colony L12. The outermost space colony. The colony of the technological revolution. Here the technology that humans once dreamed of is a reality. Established After 0olony 196 L12 serves one purpose to create technologically advanced goods for the rest of the world. Dreams and desires are irrelevant. And a dream-world of liquid titanium, and super computers is a cold reality.

L12's center was like a dream-world from a science-fiction novel. Strange glossy buildings towered over head. In the middle of it towered a huge modern art sculpture. Artificial water-falls where created as decorations for the cold metal city. The city was crowded with people. Their clothes where dark, their faces where cold and distant, and their eyes sad.

The building where occupied by science and computer firms. Inside people where busy working on inventions. Down the dull gray corridors of the buildings the tapping of buttons and beeping of computers. People shuffled down the halls all in a hurry to get somewhere. All in a rush to do something. They where like slaves, working endlessly for other people's benefits. L12 had no representation in the government, for they where not considered a colony. It was seen as a massive production company, not a colony.

Beneath the cool glossy faces of the citizens hearts burned with passionate fury, and a desire for change. A strong craving for evolution stirred among the people. Now was the time for change, it was evident. It was the calm before the storm, but the calm would not last for very long. A uprising was dawning among the strangely calm citizens of L12.

On Earth delegates from Earth and the other "official" colonies gathered to discuss a matter of great importance. There had been rumors of rebellion on L12. The matter had to be taken care of as soon as possible. As they put it "Peace is very important to us." But it was all a lie. Money was important, without L12 they would have to produce their own goods, this was expensive. The government was like a repulsively obese swine that demanded food from Colony L12.

After Colony 199 August 3rd, a day that would go down in history. On L12 Rebel Leader Dr. Sakamoto Ohkime declared from L12's center "It is the time for revolution!" Cheered on by the citizens of L12 he demanded total independence for L12. When the Earth and Colony Delegates denied his demand, Ohkime declared war. Colony ships arriving to L12 where destroyed by Ohkime's agents who call themselves Night's Children. Night's Children are rumored to number in the 100,000s. Night's Children are suspected to be led by five young women who's identities remain unknown. Authorities declared L12 a very dangerous territory and have enlisted the five infamous gundams and 10,000 mobile suits to attack L12.

I do not own Gundam Wing or any of it's characters. For the purposes of my fic the gundams where not destroyed at the end of EW. I beg you to review and give me feedback and ideas. Tell me what you think, please. The next chapter will focus more on the gundam pilots.
