Intruder - Part Twenty-seven
Heero's Story...
Heero's Story.
"The year was AC 188, We were going to Colony X18999. We pretended to be father and son to avoid any suspicion. I had been working with Odin for quite a while. He told me that this would be our last mission. He wanted me to live a normal childhood, so he said he was going to abandon me on the colony after the mission. Our mission was to assassinate Commander Septem of the Earth Sphere Military's Cosmos Arms.
The Colony Rebels, led by Quinze, possessed eight Tragos, which they stole from the military, and were advancing towards the Central Command of Colony X18999. At this point, Commander Septem was in charge of operations at the Central Command. All communications were down so they couldn't contact for backup. This meant that Septem had to rely on the Specials' cadets, led by Treize Khushrenada."
He stopped to allow Wufei to complain, but he just sat there with his eyes still shut.
"The cadets went to the Front Line of the Central Command. Treize led the battle. The communications were still jammed, so Treize had to order the cadets to attack individually.
At that moment, Odin and I were on a roof preparing for our mission. Odin told me that some idiot, with just one bullet, changed the course of history. He also taught me one last thing before we headed for our mission:
'No matter what happens, act on your feelings...'
Shortly after, two soldiers discovered us. I knocked them out, and Odin told me one more thing:
'Now that the plans have been laid out, I never know if there's some idiot out there who will alter the future. That's why I live by my feelings. That way I wouldn't regret things after the fact. That's the right way to live the moment to the fullest...'
Odin then disguised himself using the clothes he got from the unconscious soldiers. We wished each other luck and safety, then parted.
I took a rocket launcher, and headed for the battlefield.
Odin had sneaked in and tried to kill Septem with his gun. But Odin's mission failed.
On the battlefield, Quinze's army was losing to Treize's cadets, and Dechem ordered Quinze to retreat. Dechem also informed that the Central Command had recovered the communication link, and it was only a matter of time before reinforcements arrived. So Quinze ordered the army to fall back.
When all of the rebels retreated I shot one of the Leos with the rocket launcher, and destroyed it. Then, I targeted the Central Command, but Treize intercepted the shot with his Leo. Then he told everyone that the battle was over.
II found out that Septem thought Odin had retired after the last job he gave him, he was the 'idiot' who had assassinated Heero Yuy, 13 years before.
Odin had planned to blow up the whole building by pressing the detonation device he had in the hand. Dechem discovered Odin and killed him to take revenge for the assassination of Heero Yuy."
He stopped, thinking about it for a second.
"Afterwards, I found Odin lying on the floor, dying. I wanted to secure an escape route for both of us, but he said it was too late, and he died.
I found the detonation device in his hand, and picked it up. I triggered the switch.
The whole place started to go up in flames.
Septem used the colony's weather system to put out the fires with rain.
I met up with Doctor J, who offered me the job of a Gundam pilot.
By taking the advice of Odin to live according to your emotions, I took up the job."
"No wonder you're so serious about your missions, you've been doing them since you were 8 years old." Duo said,
"It was the same year as the Alliance destroyed the Maxwell Church, and six years previous to their destruction of Colony A0206." Wufei stated.
"As we seem to be going around the table, then I believe it must be my turn now."
Everyone sat back, and the attention was focused on Wufei.
"I was a scholar. I spent my childhood living with the Dragon Clan. The heirs of the clan were required to marry at the age of fourteen."
He paused, and opened his eyes.
"My wife was Meiran, daughter of the Ron Shirin, elder of the Dragon Clan."
He watched the faces before him, the surprise of his marriage clearly shown.
He continued...
