Water Running Deep

Quatre turned from the serenity of the balcony and peered out over the water. Standing at the waves was a three story tall, medieval looking dragon. It's shiny, dark blue scales shone in the sunlight. It made a deep rumbling noise, and Quatre found himself to be sputtering and rubbing his eyes furiously. The dragon took a few loping, long legged strides and towered over Quatre, who was desperately trying to rationalize. Swinging its tail as a counter balance, the dragon stared at Quatre lopsidedly and reached out for him. Quatre jumped and began backing away. He couldn't believe what was going on. It was a giant blue dragon, trying to pick him up and carry him to God knows where.
The dragon shot out its claw again and caught Quatre. Struggling, Quatre fought against the scaly hand and barely had the chance to hold his breath as the dragon dove into the ocean. They sped into the depth quickly, time seemed to slow and Quatre's lungs began to burn. The sea water stung his nose and his eyes, and just before he gave up, they were on dry ground. Quatre gasped and choked for fresh air, sopping wet on some sort of shiny, shell-like foundation. The small echoes of footfall made him look up, and before him he saw a woman. A very beautiful one at that. She had long hair of cerulean blue, with silvery, scaly skin, and strangely familiar eyebrows. Wearing a blue body suit decorated with various medals, and a green skirt tied about her waist that almost matched the iridescent green of her eyes.
My name is Celestine, Quatre. And I want you to help me bring peace to my city.

She went over to help him up, and the walls began to shake. Quatre's head was spinning all the while. My pilots were killed, and we're defenseless against our enemy. We're in the middle of a glorious war, and I'm the only one left to fight. Please help us.
Where am I? What is going on?
she looked over at the dragon, you didn't explain?
The dragon looked away and swished its mighty tail. Celestine chuckled, they're so strange. Quatre, you are now in New Atlantis. I know that you are the past pilot of a Gundam. You're also our only hope for an end to this war.
He sputtered and shook his head.
You have to help us, she took his hand, come, I'll show you New Atlantis, and I'll show you our combat suits!
