Basic Instinct, Part 19

Chapter 72

Everyday they waited, finally only one day was left. They were
sure that the Guerrados would attack today. And they were right.

"Mobile suits, twenty miles away," came a voice over the loud
speaker. Everyone hopped into their suits and blasted off. Ikia reached
the sky first and stopped so suddenly it was all Trowa could do not to
wreck into her. He looked in his scanner and his mouth just dropped.

"When they said Mobile Suits, I didn't think they meant one
huge one," said Duo, his eyes wide. Lady Une heard him and frowned as
she looked at the radar.

"What do you mean one huge one, the radar shows about a thousand
mobile suits out there," she asked him.

"Look out your window Une," said Heero stiffly. Lady Une did
as he asked and was just as startled as the rest by what she saw. A
huge mobile suit, at least half a mile high and just as wide sat outside
the base.

"What are we gonna do?" whispered Catherine.

"Don't let the size full you, its just a suit like any other, its
just bigger," yelled Quatre. Then he started giving out the plan, he
wasn't called Preventer Stat for nothing. (Preventer Strategy)

They rushed after the suit. Catherine and Heero went to one of
its arms and attempted to saw it off. Duo and Hilde took the other arm.
Trowa and Ikia, one of the legs, and Wufei and Sally the other leg.

Relena stayed back and watched for others. Quatre on the other
hand went straight up to the face of the suit and attempted to slash it
off. All of a sudden a red beam came through each of its eyes and burned
straight through his suit.

It hung in the air for a moment, and then started falling towards
the earth. And no one saw it fall.

All of the suits managed to take off the limb they were supposed to.
But one thing bothered them, it wasn't even trying to fight back. Then
they heard a crack. The suit broke apart into tiny suits. Millions of them,
that were no larger than a person.

"Great, mobile midgets. (no offense to any midgets who read this)
Could this day get any worse?" yelled Duo. The little suits were
vicious and they attacked without hesitation.

The Gundams were trying to keep them off of them. They couldn't even
move the suits arms because about ten of the little suits were hanging
onto them.

"They want us to self-destruct," yelled Relena.

"Well, we won't give them that satisfaction," said Ikia firmly.

Chapter 73

Quatre saw the bright red light come out of the suits eyes. And
in that light he saw his father, his sisters, and a woman he couldn't
place. His mother perhaps?

"Its ending, god not this way, not this soon." He smelled the
burn of charred metal and it burned his nose.

He also saw other visions. Of blonde children, a woman smiling.
And bright blue eyes that sparkled with laughter. The future he wouldn't
have.

Then he saw the hate of the suit. Of its creators. He saw it
break apart to make the smaller suits. He saw how one by one they would
make his friends self-destruct.

"No," he whispered before it grew dark.

Disclaimer: I do not own Gundam Wing or any of its characters.

Yes, I know, I know. Its been a long time since the last chapter.
And it will probably be a long time till the next. Unfortunately I have
come across a game on the computer that is more addicting than anything
else I've ever come across.
