The
War
The year is
after colony 198. Relatives of the former Oz foundation members are gathering
in a small meeting hall to discuss their future.
"We
must take revenge on those merciless Gundam pilots!" yelled an outraged
attendee.
"That
is the entire purpose of this meeting. We are here to discuss our future, the
future of the Gundam pilots, and the future of the new Oz.," replied the leader
of the raging relatives, Colonel Dorshav. As those words were repeated in the
minds of the young soldiers, their wonderful 'future' began to unfold.
As the new
Oz foundation becomes more and more powerful, they soon gain the trust of many
citizens of Earth and then move on to controlling the people of the colonies
and turning them against the Gundams and their pilots. For two years they have
trained these new members of Oz and have become stronger than the original Oz
ever was.
Duo invites
all of the other pilots to the ship he's on, and they all come because they all
secretly miss the friendship of the other pilots. They all bring their Gundams,
but neither of them used their Gundam to travel anymore, since the war was
over. As they walk through the hall to the dining room, they pass the room
where they have their Gundams stored. Maybe 'pass' wasn't the right word here,
because they actually went in this room to stop and look at their Gundams. They
all had a few cobwebs and some spots were rusted over. Duo was the only one not
able to hold back the temptation. He ran up to the little rope that pulled him
into his cockpit and jumped in. However, when he tried to move, the way he once
was able to, there was a painfully loud and high-pitched
"SSCCCRRRREEEEEEECCHH," heard throughout the ship. When finally
Quatre got Duo to come back down from the cockpit, they were all practically on
the verge of tears (except for Heero, of course).
Therefore,
the pilots gladly accept the challenge of a new war, half out of rage and half
out of boredom. The peaceful world was hard for them to adjust to, they were
used to tough conditions and harsh battles. The life of a soldier was the only
life they knew of.
The first
battle is held in outer space, next to a colony. Here, the story begins...
Duo and
Deathscythe slash open another couple of mobile suits effortlessly. Duo then
turns to Quatre, who is piloting the Sandrock right next to him, and asks for
permission to leave the battle.
"You
can handle this, right? Heero, Trowa, and Wufei are backing you up, and these
mobile suit pilots are amateurs." Duo pleaded.
"Fine.
Just tell my why before you-" and Duo was gone. Quatre shrugged and
continued to fight the attacking mobile suits. Half an hour later, Duo returned
with a towel around his head.
"Duo...?
What's with the towel?" Trowa asked, raising an eyebrow to his friend as
they floated through outer space in a ship that Sally Po had rented them.
"I had
to go to the bathroom, so I went to that colony over there- he points to
the colony floating behind the ship- and their porter potties had shower
stalls!! Isn't that cool? Well, I was all sweaty so I went ahead and took a
shower." Duo gleamed.
"Okay....
that's nice.... maybe I shouldn't have asked...." Trowa replied blankly.
Duo had his
own apartment on one of the colonies, so he decided to go there to sleep.
Everyone else was fine with sleeping on board the ship, though.
It was late
at night and Duo was sleeping (and snoring, might I add) in his apartment when
a faint, flickering blue light woke him up. He looked at the desk where his
computer stood (or sat, whichever you prefer). He silently got a closer look at
the intruder and recognized him as Heero. Duo picked up his gun from the side
of his bed and did something he'd been wanting (and trying) to do for a long
time; he pulled the trigger. Heero turned in his seat to face Duo.
"What
was that about?" he asked, still soaking wet.
Duo held up
his water gun and let out a, "YYEEEEEEAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!" before
telling Heero that he was the only one of the pilots that he hadn't shot (with
water) yet.
Everyone else was having trouble sleeping, since they hadn't slept in such small beds in a long time, so they went to the computer on the ship that, apparently, Heero didn't know about, since he went to use Duo's computer. They looked up information about the new mobile suits that Oz was using, and found out that the scientists had built them, just like how they had once built the Mecurious and the Vey 8 (don't tell me, I spelled it wrong, didn't I?).
Many days
and nights in that war were like this. Until one day, a month later, when the
Gundam pilots are separated.
The day when
the pilots run into a problem that even they
might not be able to overcome.
