New Mobile Report Gundam Wing: Vengeance From The Past
*Trant's true intentions begin to surface. Feeling that he's neglected by all those around him, he decides that he'll use his Mobile Armor to satisfy his need for vengeance. And he also makes a promise for his own brother's death, along with Relena's. As the other Gundam pilot's along with Noin and Sally tries to hatch a plan to get the hostages out, Trowa is hiding along the side of a asteroid spying on the enemy base. And Heero has finally entered the colony through the service entrance, and now begins to make his way to the surface. The date is January 3rd, After Colony 201. With the deadline only a day away, a move must be made now.
Episode 5: The shot that brought despair.
*On the top of a news building, a helicopter get ready to take off from the roof as the pilot awaits the anchorman. As he's smoking a cigarette, a gun is pointed to the back of the pilot's head.
Heero: I need you to take me to the hotel where the hostage crisis is taking place.
Pilot: Well.uhhhh, that's where I'm planning on.going.but you see.the reporter.
Heero: There isn't time.
Pilot: Ok, ok, ok, ok. Umm.could you stop pointing the gun at me?
Heero: I will.once we've taken off.
Pilot: (in a state of shock).yea. Ok.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
*Back outside the hotel, the others prepare a plan to rescue the hostages.
Sally: These three buildings on the left, right, and behind the hotel have four snipers each. It will be near impossible to raid the hotel without getting picked off. So our first objective will be to take out these snipers. Now, we only have enough men to spare to take out two out of the three groups of snipers, which leaves four remaining.
Duo: What're we going to do about those four?
Sally: Thanks to Quatre bringing the Maganac Corps with him, he can send some men to this third building to take out the third group of snipers. We were able to sneak the men into the three buildings where the snipers are. Six men each.
Wu-Fei: Entering the building will go as followed. There are two entrances. Front, and the east side entrance. Quatre will lead the othe half of the Maganac Corps. and infiltrate the East Side. Me and Zechs will lead a group into the front entrance. The only entry procedure left will be the roof.
Duo: The roof?
Wu-Fei: That's right. We need at least two people to propel themselves down to the roof from a helicopter that will be flying over the hotel.
Duo: What about the worries of being shot down by the bazooka men on the roof. As a matter of fact, the guys that go to attack the snipers will be in danger by those men on the roof of the hotel.
Wu-Fei: We commandeered a news chopper.
Duo: Are you allowed to do that?
Wu-Fei: Preventers have to take the necessary measures to handle these type of situations. The two people will fire at the bazooka men from the roof at the same time the snipers are being taken out. We confirmed at least two bazooka men. Now all we need is two people.
Duo: I'll go
Noin: Me too.
Wu-Fei: Are you both sure?
*They both nod their heads.
Wu-Fei: Ok then. After you secure the roof, your main objective will be to infiltrate from the roof and find the Presidential Suite. The building has 8 floors. The Suite should be on the 6th floor. We don't know if defenses are tight on the upper floors.so be careful.
Sally: Now this just leaves one more problem.
Quatre: Problem?
Sally: We can't just go running up to them expecting to take them out easily. We need some sort of distraction.
Zechs: So.what will that distraction be?
Sally: .we don't know yet.
Duo: Don't know? So the plan isn't complete yet.
Wu-Fei: It's almost complete. Relax, we're going to pull this off well before tomorrow. Sally, has there been any transmission from Trowa?
Sally: No. We've heard nothing from him.
Quatre: I don't get it. He should've been here a long time ago.
Noin: uhh.you guys. I think Red Ribbon is making another move. Look at the T.V. screen
Wu-Fei: What?
Reporter: We repeat.this channel, the channel 6 chopper, has been hijacked. It happened ten minutes ago during final preparations for take off on the roof of Harrison production where it would've taken off and brought you live coverage of the hostage crisis. The identity of the hijacker, and whether he's working with the Red Ribbon is unknown at the moment.
Sally: Looks like that's how members of the Red Ribbon are going to escape if worst comes to worst.
Duo: This is too much publicity for them. Why would the Red Ribbon do something this drastic?
Zechs: .actually, I think it's the diversion we've been waiting for.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
*Back inside the hotel, Trant watches the report from another room.
Trant: Richmond would never order this. Nor would we do something this foolish. Hmm.looks like one of them are starting to make their move.
*Richmond walks in. Trant changes the channel immediately.
Richmond: Anything new?
Trant: No sir. Nothing new to report. Just the same old Red Ribbon is evil news report.
Ford: Yes.the E.S.U.N. would use propaganda like that.
Trant: I've also checked with our men at the spaceport. There's a spaceship ready for us. And the chopper is at an airfield near by. If necessary, it could be here in five minutes. And I made sure the chopper was equipped with bulletproof windows. We can expect the authorities to be trying to take pot shots at us while we're boarding.
Ford: Very good. I only hope it won't come down to that plan. I'm confident that the government will grant us our freedom.
Trant: .yes. You're right. If you excuse me.
*He leaves the room.
Trant: Fool. Only a fool would think the E.S.U.N. will give into these demands. They're going to make their move shortly. I can tell. Too bad that old fool can't recognize that.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
*15 mins later
Wu-Fei: I hope you were right about calling those six men out of one of those buildings.
Zechs: Trust me on this.
Sally: There's the chopper.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Heero: Good. Those snipers won't bother looking at a news chopper. Does this chopper have a ladder?
Pilot: Yea.
Heero: I'm going to climb down to that building across the street from the building with those snipers.
Pilot: Umm.yea sure. I'll keep it steady.
Heero: Thanks.
Pilot: Hey. Are you with the military?
Heero: Not exactly.
Pilot: Oh.
*The ladder is set outside the helicopter and Heero begins to climb down it. The others begin to notice someone climbing down.
Wu-Fei: .heh, why does he always have to do things the hard way.
Sally: Tell the pilot to have our chopper take off immediately. Everyone prepare to proceed with the operation on my mark.
Wu-Fei: That's are cue, Zech. Are you sure it was a good idea to call those men out of that building.
Zechs: We need the strength to get into the front entrance. Besides, they might just get into Heero's way.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
*The news chopper begins to fly away as Heero, unnoticed by the snipers, is on the roof of a building across the street from one of the buildings with the snipers.
Heero: That open window looks like a good target. It's right under the roof.
*He takes out what looks like a gun with a grappling hook and shoots it towards the open window. It hooks onto the ledge of the window and he flings himself over to the building. He climbs up the building to the window and unhooks the grappling hook which has dug itself into the wall for a better grip. Seeing that he can still climb up, he continues to make his way to the roof. There, he sees four men with guns looking the opposite direction. Back inside the hotel, Trant is in the hallway looking out the window towards the building Heero is on. He suddenly sees one gunman get hit in the back by Heero. As he continues to look on, he sees Heero flip another gunman over and kick the rifle out of the hands of the third gunman. The fourth gunman aims his rifle towards Heero but before he can fire, Heero takes out his pistol and shoots the sniper rifle out of his hand. Scared, the gunman runs towards the door leaving the other three behind unconscious. Heero hides behind the crates setup by the snipers as the two bazooka men on the roof across the street runs over to see what all the commotion is. The other snipers begin to have their targets set on the building where they see three snipers down and one missing.
Sniper 1: What the hell is going on?
Sniper 2: How the hell am I suppose to know. It doesn't look like they made their move yet. But, someone is on that roof.probably behind the crates.
*The two bazooka men continue to look on as they notice the crates.
Guard 1: .hey. The crates.
Guard 2: I see. He could be hiding behind there.
Guard 1: Heh.bad move.
*The guards aims their bazooka's towards the crates. They suddenly hear gunfire as they look down to see what's going on. What they see are the Preventers attacking the guards at the front and rear entrance.
Guard 1: Holy hell. They're attacking.
*They suddenly hear gunfire from the roofs and notice that Preventers are overrunning the remaining guards.
Guard 1: HEY! YOU FIRE AT ONE GROUP, I'LL FIRE AT THE SECOND!
Guard 2: GOTCHA!
*Suddenly, one of them is hit in the leg and he falls to the ground. The second guard notices it and turns around to see Heero aiming the sniper rifle at him. Befoe he can react, he is also shot in the leg. Trant witnesses all of this from the window he's at.
Trant: Hmph. A very persistent young fellow.
*Heero looks at the building and notices Trant looking at him from one of the buildings.
Heero: THERE HE IS!
*He aims the sniper rifle towards Trant. Trant notices Heero aiming at him and moves out of the way right before Heero fires. The shot goes through the window and pierces the wall.
Trant: How cheap. Trying to kill me from long distance. But now.the E.S.U.N. is definitely making their move. Now is the time to make mine.
*Heero drop the sniper rifle and notices there's no good spots to fire the grappling hook at.
Heero: I'll have to use the suction plug for this one. And aim right at one of the windows.
*The other Preventer agents have secured the last two rooftops and Rasid, who is leading the Maganac group, contacts Quatre.
Rasid: Master Quatre, we have secured the rooftops.
Quatre: Good. I wish we could say the same, but it hasn't been easy to break through the Eastside entrance.
Rasid: We'll be down there in a moment. Also.there appears to be someone else helping us out up here.
Quatre: Probably a Preventer.
Rasid: He's not dressed like one. Looks like someone from one of the photographs you showed me.
Quatre: What? Can it be Heero?
*At the front entrance, the Preventers fight a fierce battle with the Red Ribbon as Wu-Fei and Zechs notices someone flinging himself to the hotel.
Wu-Fei: Looks like Heero broke through. Wish it was that easy for us.
Zechs: Sally.are Grenade launchers in position?
Sally: They're ready to fire at any time.
Zechs: Have them fire right across their nose.
*Suddenly, several grenades goes hurling over their heads and impacts right in front of the Red Ribbon forces, injuring several of them. The Red Ribbon forces begin to move back inside the hotel.
Wu-Fei: We've got them on the run. LET'S GO!
*They all begin charging the Red Ribbon forces firing at them as Quatre and the Maganac Corps. are also beginning to break through. Back inside the hotel, Trant runs into Richmond's room.
Trant: Sir.worst has come to worst.
Ford: I know that.
Trant: We must leave at once. The chopper will be here in moments and I have two guards waiting for you outside.
Ford: What about you?
Trant: I'm coming. Just give me a minute. I must get the laptop. It has logs of all the calls made to our base.
Ford: You're right. Make sure you hurry it up.
Trant: I will. And make sure you take the staircase at the East side.
Ford: Why there?
Trant: Trust me on this.
Ford: .all right.
*Ford walks out of the door where he is escorted with the two guards to through the hallway. Trant heads the other way to the Presidential Suite.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Hamilton: So.that's all he was.
Relena: Yes. I'll admit.I had some attraction towards him.but we were two completely different people. And we were both on completely different paths.it was the best for both of us.
Hamilton: Do you still think about him?
Relena: .sometimes. I just wonder what he's doing. I can never really imagine someone like him living a normal life though.
Hamilton: You know.it's only a matter of time before we're freed.
Relena: I know. It's finally coming to an end. Our son, Reginald.I was worried I would never get to see him again.
Hamilton: You think we should walk out right now?
Relena: Let's not. We'll be safer here.
Hamilton: Yea.I guess you're right.
*They both embrace each other waiting anxiously for the Preventers to break through that door.
Relena: You know.I'm much too use to this by now. I've been thinking about resigning my position as Vice-Foreign Minister.
Hamilton: What about the colonies? I thought you stayed on as Vice-Foreign Minister for them.
Relena: I stayed on to assure the colonies, help keep peace for both, earthlings and colony citizens, and make a difference in life.
Hamilton: And you have made a difference. Look at what you helped build.
Relena: No.I only helped point mankind in the right direction. The people are the one's responsible for building this peaceful world. Or, at least I hope it's peaceful.
Hamilton: It is. Yes, there will always be those that have their own different views of what a peaceful place should be.but thanks to you.you helped achieve total pacifism.
Relena: This is total pacifism? No.there's no such thing. I realize that now. There will always be those causing problems and disrupting the peace. But.this is as close as mankind has ever gotten to it. And it wasn't because of me, but because they wanted it that badly. And even if they don't achieve total pacifism.this is as close as they have ever come to it. And that's good enough.
Hamilton: But you did help out somewhat. Don't you want to continue to at least help make a difference?
Relena: There's more than enough people to do that. I just.I just want to live a normal life from now on. That's something I've never had before.
Hamilton: .ok. If that's what you want, then I support you completely. Whatever you decide is fine by me.
*They see the doorknob begin to turn.
Hamilton: They've come!
*The door opens and Trant enters the room.
Trant: AH.sounds of gunfire. Truly a world of total pacifism.
Hamilton: You've lost Trant. (He stands up) Preventers are storming the hotel. It's over.
Trant: You're wrong. Now, it begins.
*Back outside, Duo and Noin are dropped off on the roof by the news chopper.
Duo: Looks like someone already beat us to the punch.
Noin You think it's him?
Duo: Probably. Here, we'll take this staircase over here.
*Duo and Noin goes through a door to begin making their way down the western staircase. Meanwhile, at the other staircase, Richmond awaits at the entrance towards the roof as he awaits to hear a transmission on his radio saying the chopper has arrived. Back inside the hotel room, Hamilton tries to talk some sense into his brother.
Hamilton: Begins? How does it begin?
Trant: I needed a way to get out of here, and now I do.
Hamilton: You're talking about your precious mobile armor?
Trant: That's right.
Hamilton: What're you hoping to accomplish through Beowulf?
Trant: .to make everyone pay for ignoring me.
Hamilton: Make everyone pay? That is what this is all about? I mean for real? No desire to try and advance military technology? No desire to rule the E.S.U.N.? I mean how many people is everyone, Trant!? How many people are going to have to die because of your anger!?
Trant: My goal was to try and advance military technology once.but I was ignored when I tried to do so. This is my way of dealing with my anger. This is the path Zero has given to me.
Hamilton: Zero? ZERO!? Are you telling me that not only are you a cross between a cartoonish "let's kill everyone villain" and a psychotic nutcase that has gone completely mad all because the world pissed him off.
Trant: Did you cartoonish?
Hamilton: .but also, that you're taking orders from a machine?
Trant: I am not cartoonish or psychotic..nor am I taking orders from a machine.
Hamilton: Isn't this what Zero told you to do?
Trant: This is the path that Zero guided me towards.
Hamilton: That's not the same thing as taking orders from a machine?
Trant: Zero pointed me towards a direction and I chose it. I chose out of my own free will.
Hamilton: I find that hard to believe, brother. It just seems like you're being controlled!
Trant: I'M NOT BEING CONTROLLED! ZERO SHOWED ME THAT I WAS BEING IGNORED!
Hamilton: There you go with Zero told you this again! Open your eyes.a machine is controlling you're future.
Trant: That's not true!
Hamilton: Tell me.how many people will have to die to satisfy you and Zero?
Trant: Just shut up!
Hamilton: How many people will have to die just to make Zero happy!? How many people do you intend on killing on your insane rampage, just to satisfy a machine controlling your mind!
Trant: Is that what you think? Do you really want to find out? LET'S SEE IF IT JUST TAKES ONE!
*He takes out a gun and points it towards his brother's head. Before he can say anything, Trant pulls the trigger and blood splatters all over Trant's clothing as he has just shot his own brother dead. Relena screams in horror seeing her husband die. She runs to his lifeless body.
Relena: NOOO! HAMILTON, WAKE UP! OH GOD NO, DON'T LET THIS HAPPEN. HAMILTON!!!
*Trant looks down at Relena who holds her husbands lifeless body in her arms.
Trant: I did him a favor. I decided that he shouldn't have to watch his wife die after all. But don't worry. You'll be with him shortly.
*He points the gun towards Relena as she gets up.
Relena: You monster. We were going to live a normal life together. We were going to grow old, raise our son, die together.but you took that away.
Trant: Oh please. You're barely breaking my heart.
Relena: You killed your own brother. You pointed that gun towards his head point and shot him point blank.without hesitation.
Trant: I didn't hesitate because I didn't see him as my brother anymore. Or did you just so happen to miss me saying that while you were in your dream world? Reality can be very cruel compared to the world you want, Queen Relena.
*She looks in horror as Trant begins to slowly pull the trigger. Suddenly, he hears a click behind him.
Trant: Heero.Yuy.
*He turns around to see Heero pointing a gun at him. He points his gun at Heero.
Relena: Heero!
*He see Relena behind him, with her husbands blood all over her clothes, and her husband Hamilton, lying dead on the floor.
Heero: .Trant Clark.
Trant: I don't recall ever saying my name to you. Somebody must've been doing his homework.
Heero: Why'd you do it Trant? Why did you kill your own brother?
Trant: You even know that much. Well, I'd tell you the entire story.but I really don't feel like it and it's not my fault that you've been missing the show the past two days.
Heero: The Zero System made you crazy.didn't it?
Trant: WHY DOES EVEYONE SAY THAT? I mastered the system you idiot. Just like you did.
Heero: You didn't master it. I mastered it because I was able to control myself. But look at yourself.
Trant: Zero opened my eyes. Heero, you should know what I'm talking about.
Heero: .I said to myself I would never kill again. But you obviously show no mercy to anyone, even your own brother. I shouldn't show you any either.
*He begins to slowly pull the trigger.
Trant: It's nice to have a family.
Heero: What?
Trant: I said, it's nice to have a family. A wife. A son. It would be a shame if something were to happen to them.
*He has an angered look on his face.
Trant: Hear me out for a second, if you will. You're not the only one that does their homework. You have a wife, named Sandra. And a son, Akihiro is it? An infant son at that. Even you managed to live a normal life of all people.
Relena: Heero.a wife.and son?
Heero: Where are you getting at?
Trant: Let's play a little game. Now, that clock says 2:58:45. Almost a minute away from 3 o'clock. Now, if you're unlucky, chances are that your wife is receiving a package right now. And in that package is a little.oh, how should I put this, explosive gift.
Heero: You lie!
Trant: Do I? Now here's the game. If I did send your family a bomb, that clock will beep at 3 o'clock. But, could I be trying to distract you? Maybe I didn't set that clock, and I'm just trying to have you take your eyes off of me for a split second so I can shoot you first. Or maybe, I'm not bluffing.
*Heero's hands begin to tremble.
Trant: You want to shoot me.but now your attention is elsewhere. Look at your hands. But am I bluffing, or is your family really going to die? We'll find out in 25 seconds.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
*Meanwhile, at the same time, a doorbell rings and Sandra opens the door.
Delivery man: Package for.Akihiro Yuy?
Sandra: For my son?
Delivery: Seems like it. If you would sign here.
Sandra: Of course.
*At the same time, Heero has a frantic look on his face as it is 15 seconds until 3 o'clock. Sandra walks up to the cradle.
Sandra: Hey, Akihiro. You got a package. Oh.from your grandmother. Let's see what's in here.
*She begins to open the package.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
*5.4.3.2.1.the clock beeps.
Trant: Oh, isn't that a shame. Looks like you lose.
Heero: noo.NOOOO!
*Heero fires his gun but his bullet misses Trant as he fires back at Heero. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
*Meanwhile.
Sandra: Aw..that's so nice of your grandmother. A teddy bear.
*She picks up her son into her arms.
Sandra: This is for you. Oh yes it is.
*Her son holds the teddy bear in his arms as she carries him around.
Sandra: We gotta call up and thank her later on. Oh yes we do.
*She walks into the living room and sees the T.V. which is turned off.
Sandra: .what am I going to find on that television set?
*She turns on the television and sees a news report on.
Reporter: It appears the conflict is coming to an end as authorities have most of the building under their control. There is no official word on if the hostages have been rescued yet.
Sandra: What about Heero? IS HE ALIVE? Is he going to keep his.promise?
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
*Back at the hotel, the gun Heero was holding is shot out of his hand.
Trant: Isn't that amazing. You have no idea how long it took me to master a shot like that. I could've killed you right there and then.but I just wanted to see that look on your face a bit longer.
*Duo and Noin are now just one floor under the Presidential Suite.
Duo: Looks like Heero must've cleared the way.
Noin: Oh god.I hope Relena is all right.
*She's suddenly shot in the back of her leg and falls to the ground.
Duo: MS. NOIN!
*He drags her around the corner and takes over behind the wall from three guards.
Duo: Are you all right Noin?
Noin: I'm fine. They just got me in my leg. I'll be all right.
Duo: Those bastards!
*He takes a grenade out and throws it at the three guards. They try to run as fast as they can but are caught in the explosion and killed instantly.
Duo: Come on Noin. We have to keep going.
Noin: I'll only slow you down.
Duo: I'm not going to leave you here!
Noin: Just go. Your number one priority should be rescuing the hostages.
Duo: But.
Noin: GO NOW!
Duo: .damn it!
*Duo heads towards the staircase, leaving Noin behind. Back at the hotel room.
Heero: Oh.my.god.
*Heero drops to his knees.
Trant: Look at yourself. Pathetic. You actually let your emotions take you over. That's not like you, Heero. I guess becoming a family man can really change a man. And how do you know I was tell the truth in the first place? Maybe it was all a bluff. Well, I guess you'll only find out if you see your wife and kid in hell with you.
*Meanwhile, Duo approaches the Presidential suite.
Duo: There's three entrances. West, East, and North side entrance to the Presidential Suite. Which one should I take.
*As he turns the corner, he notices the North entrance door is left wide open.
Duo: Open? Did they get out?
*He slowly walks to the open door. He takes a peak at what's inside and notices Trant holding a gun towards Heero, who is on his knees.
Duo: No way. Is he in trouble?
Trant: You've lost that killer instinct. What a pathetic way for a man to die, on his knees. Especially for you, Heero.
Duo: Gotta move now!
*Duo comes out of hiding and shoots Trant in the arm. That shot makes him drop his gun.
Trant: What the hell?
*He sees Duo pointing a gun at him. He looks at him closely and realizes who he is.
Trant: YOU! I'm surprised a man like you were able to get here too. Knowing your history, I figured you would just screw up on your way here.
Duo: I guess you figured wrong. Hey Heero.are you all right bud?
*He notices a dead man right behind Trant, and blood all over Trant's clothes.
Duo: Did you do this, Trant!?
Trant: Oh god. I really think I've talked long enough now.
*He drops a grenade out of his pocket and it rolls toward Heero. Duo is distracted by it and Trant begins to run out of the room. Duo tries to shoot him on his way but misses him.
Duo: DAMN! Look out Heero!
*He runs and pushes Heero out of the way. The grenade explodes, but it's a very small explosion compared to what a grenade should have.
Duo: He used that grenade mainly as a decoy. But the explosion could've still killed you, Heero.
*He sees a frightened look on Heero's face.
Duo: Heero.come on. Snap out of it! Is Relena all right?
Heero: I.I.
*Duo turns around and sees Relena laying on the floor.
Duo: Oh no! We're too late.
*He runs over to her body and realizes that she's already dead.
Duo: A shot right into the chest. Trant did this, didn't he!
Heero: My.my shot.
Duo: Huh? What was that, Heero?
*He remembers the shot that he fired at Trant and also ses the image of his shot hitting Relena in the chest.
Heero: I missed Trant.and shot her by accident. I.I killed her.
Duo: What? No way, this can't be happening.
Heero stares at Relena's lifeless body.
Heero: I only wanted to help her. Oh god, what've I done. I.I didn't mean to.
To be continued.
*Trant's true intentions begin to surface. Feeling that he's neglected by all those around him, he decides that he'll use his Mobile Armor to satisfy his need for vengeance. And he also makes a promise for his own brother's death, along with Relena's. As the other Gundam pilot's along with Noin and Sally tries to hatch a plan to get the hostages out, Trowa is hiding along the side of a asteroid spying on the enemy base. And Heero has finally entered the colony through the service entrance, and now begins to make his way to the surface. The date is January 3rd, After Colony 201. With the deadline only a day away, a move must be made now.
Episode 5: The shot that brought despair.
*On the top of a news building, a helicopter get ready to take off from the roof as the pilot awaits the anchorman. As he's smoking a cigarette, a gun is pointed to the back of the pilot's head.
Heero: I need you to take me to the hotel where the hostage crisis is taking place.
Pilot: Well.uhhhh, that's where I'm planning on.going.but you see.the reporter.
Heero: There isn't time.
Pilot: Ok, ok, ok, ok. Umm.could you stop pointing the gun at me?
Heero: I will.once we've taken off.
Pilot: (in a state of shock).yea. Ok.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
*Back outside the hotel, the others prepare a plan to rescue the hostages.
Sally: These three buildings on the left, right, and behind the hotel have four snipers each. It will be near impossible to raid the hotel without getting picked off. So our first objective will be to take out these snipers. Now, we only have enough men to spare to take out two out of the three groups of snipers, which leaves four remaining.
Duo: What're we going to do about those four?
Sally: Thanks to Quatre bringing the Maganac Corps with him, he can send some men to this third building to take out the third group of snipers. We were able to sneak the men into the three buildings where the snipers are. Six men each.
Wu-Fei: Entering the building will go as followed. There are two entrances. Front, and the east side entrance. Quatre will lead the othe half of the Maganac Corps. and infiltrate the East Side. Me and Zechs will lead a group into the front entrance. The only entry procedure left will be the roof.
Duo: The roof?
Wu-Fei: That's right. We need at least two people to propel themselves down to the roof from a helicopter that will be flying over the hotel.
Duo: What about the worries of being shot down by the bazooka men on the roof. As a matter of fact, the guys that go to attack the snipers will be in danger by those men on the roof of the hotel.
Wu-Fei: We commandeered a news chopper.
Duo: Are you allowed to do that?
Wu-Fei: Preventers have to take the necessary measures to handle these type of situations. The two people will fire at the bazooka men from the roof at the same time the snipers are being taken out. We confirmed at least two bazooka men. Now all we need is two people.
Duo: I'll go
Noin: Me too.
Wu-Fei: Are you both sure?
*They both nod their heads.
Wu-Fei: Ok then. After you secure the roof, your main objective will be to infiltrate from the roof and find the Presidential Suite. The building has 8 floors. The Suite should be on the 6th floor. We don't know if defenses are tight on the upper floors.so be careful.
Sally: Now this just leaves one more problem.
Quatre: Problem?
Sally: We can't just go running up to them expecting to take them out easily. We need some sort of distraction.
Zechs: So.what will that distraction be?
Sally: .we don't know yet.
Duo: Don't know? So the plan isn't complete yet.
Wu-Fei: It's almost complete. Relax, we're going to pull this off well before tomorrow. Sally, has there been any transmission from Trowa?
Sally: No. We've heard nothing from him.
Quatre: I don't get it. He should've been here a long time ago.
Noin: uhh.you guys. I think Red Ribbon is making another move. Look at the T.V. screen
Wu-Fei: What?
Reporter: We repeat.this channel, the channel 6 chopper, has been hijacked. It happened ten minutes ago during final preparations for take off on the roof of Harrison production where it would've taken off and brought you live coverage of the hostage crisis. The identity of the hijacker, and whether he's working with the Red Ribbon is unknown at the moment.
Sally: Looks like that's how members of the Red Ribbon are going to escape if worst comes to worst.
Duo: This is too much publicity for them. Why would the Red Ribbon do something this drastic?
Zechs: .actually, I think it's the diversion we've been waiting for.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
*Back inside the hotel, Trant watches the report from another room.
Trant: Richmond would never order this. Nor would we do something this foolish. Hmm.looks like one of them are starting to make their move.
*Richmond walks in. Trant changes the channel immediately.
Richmond: Anything new?
Trant: No sir. Nothing new to report. Just the same old Red Ribbon is evil news report.
Ford: Yes.the E.S.U.N. would use propaganda like that.
Trant: I've also checked with our men at the spaceport. There's a spaceship ready for us. And the chopper is at an airfield near by. If necessary, it could be here in five minutes. And I made sure the chopper was equipped with bulletproof windows. We can expect the authorities to be trying to take pot shots at us while we're boarding.
Ford: Very good. I only hope it won't come down to that plan. I'm confident that the government will grant us our freedom.
Trant: .yes. You're right. If you excuse me.
*He leaves the room.
Trant: Fool. Only a fool would think the E.S.U.N. will give into these demands. They're going to make their move shortly. I can tell. Too bad that old fool can't recognize that.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
*15 mins later
Wu-Fei: I hope you were right about calling those six men out of one of those buildings.
Zechs: Trust me on this.
Sally: There's the chopper.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Heero: Good. Those snipers won't bother looking at a news chopper. Does this chopper have a ladder?
Pilot: Yea.
Heero: I'm going to climb down to that building across the street from the building with those snipers.
Pilot: Umm.yea sure. I'll keep it steady.
Heero: Thanks.
Pilot: Hey. Are you with the military?
Heero: Not exactly.
Pilot: Oh.
*The ladder is set outside the helicopter and Heero begins to climb down it. The others begin to notice someone climbing down.
Wu-Fei: .heh, why does he always have to do things the hard way.
Sally: Tell the pilot to have our chopper take off immediately. Everyone prepare to proceed with the operation on my mark.
Wu-Fei: That's are cue, Zech. Are you sure it was a good idea to call those men out of that building.
Zechs: We need the strength to get into the front entrance. Besides, they might just get into Heero's way.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
*The news chopper begins to fly away as Heero, unnoticed by the snipers, is on the roof of a building across the street from one of the buildings with the snipers.
Heero: That open window looks like a good target. It's right under the roof.
*He takes out what looks like a gun with a grappling hook and shoots it towards the open window. It hooks onto the ledge of the window and he flings himself over to the building. He climbs up the building to the window and unhooks the grappling hook which has dug itself into the wall for a better grip. Seeing that he can still climb up, he continues to make his way to the roof. There, he sees four men with guns looking the opposite direction. Back inside the hotel, Trant is in the hallway looking out the window towards the building Heero is on. He suddenly sees one gunman get hit in the back by Heero. As he continues to look on, he sees Heero flip another gunman over and kick the rifle out of the hands of the third gunman. The fourth gunman aims his rifle towards Heero but before he can fire, Heero takes out his pistol and shoots the sniper rifle out of his hand. Scared, the gunman runs towards the door leaving the other three behind unconscious. Heero hides behind the crates setup by the snipers as the two bazooka men on the roof across the street runs over to see what all the commotion is. The other snipers begin to have their targets set on the building where they see three snipers down and one missing.
Sniper 1: What the hell is going on?
Sniper 2: How the hell am I suppose to know. It doesn't look like they made their move yet. But, someone is on that roof.probably behind the crates.
*The two bazooka men continue to look on as they notice the crates.
Guard 1: .hey. The crates.
Guard 2: I see. He could be hiding behind there.
Guard 1: Heh.bad move.
*The guards aims their bazooka's towards the crates. They suddenly hear gunfire as they look down to see what's going on. What they see are the Preventers attacking the guards at the front and rear entrance.
Guard 1: Holy hell. They're attacking.
*They suddenly hear gunfire from the roofs and notice that Preventers are overrunning the remaining guards.
Guard 1: HEY! YOU FIRE AT ONE GROUP, I'LL FIRE AT THE SECOND!
Guard 2: GOTCHA!
*Suddenly, one of them is hit in the leg and he falls to the ground. The second guard notices it and turns around to see Heero aiming the sniper rifle at him. Befoe he can react, he is also shot in the leg. Trant witnesses all of this from the window he's at.
Trant: Hmph. A very persistent young fellow.
*Heero looks at the building and notices Trant looking at him from one of the buildings.
Heero: THERE HE IS!
*He aims the sniper rifle towards Trant. Trant notices Heero aiming at him and moves out of the way right before Heero fires. The shot goes through the window and pierces the wall.
Trant: How cheap. Trying to kill me from long distance. But now.the E.S.U.N. is definitely making their move. Now is the time to make mine.
*Heero drop the sniper rifle and notices there's no good spots to fire the grappling hook at.
Heero: I'll have to use the suction plug for this one. And aim right at one of the windows.
*The other Preventer agents have secured the last two rooftops and Rasid, who is leading the Maganac group, contacts Quatre.
Rasid: Master Quatre, we have secured the rooftops.
Quatre: Good. I wish we could say the same, but it hasn't been easy to break through the Eastside entrance.
Rasid: We'll be down there in a moment. Also.there appears to be someone else helping us out up here.
Quatre: Probably a Preventer.
Rasid: He's not dressed like one. Looks like someone from one of the photographs you showed me.
Quatre: What? Can it be Heero?
*At the front entrance, the Preventers fight a fierce battle with the Red Ribbon as Wu-Fei and Zechs notices someone flinging himself to the hotel.
Wu-Fei: Looks like Heero broke through. Wish it was that easy for us.
Zechs: Sally.are Grenade launchers in position?
Sally: They're ready to fire at any time.
Zechs: Have them fire right across their nose.
*Suddenly, several grenades goes hurling over their heads and impacts right in front of the Red Ribbon forces, injuring several of them. The Red Ribbon forces begin to move back inside the hotel.
Wu-Fei: We've got them on the run. LET'S GO!
*They all begin charging the Red Ribbon forces firing at them as Quatre and the Maganac Corps. are also beginning to break through. Back inside the hotel, Trant runs into Richmond's room.
Trant: Sir.worst has come to worst.
Ford: I know that.
Trant: We must leave at once. The chopper will be here in moments and I have two guards waiting for you outside.
Ford: What about you?
Trant: I'm coming. Just give me a minute. I must get the laptop. It has logs of all the calls made to our base.
Ford: You're right. Make sure you hurry it up.
Trant: I will. And make sure you take the staircase at the East side.
Ford: Why there?
Trant: Trust me on this.
Ford: .all right.
*Ford walks out of the door where he is escorted with the two guards to through the hallway. Trant heads the other way to the Presidential Suite.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Hamilton: So.that's all he was.
Relena: Yes. I'll admit.I had some attraction towards him.but we were two completely different people. And we were both on completely different paths.it was the best for both of us.
Hamilton: Do you still think about him?
Relena: .sometimes. I just wonder what he's doing. I can never really imagine someone like him living a normal life though.
Hamilton: You know.it's only a matter of time before we're freed.
Relena: I know. It's finally coming to an end. Our son, Reginald.I was worried I would never get to see him again.
Hamilton: You think we should walk out right now?
Relena: Let's not. We'll be safer here.
Hamilton: Yea.I guess you're right.
*They both embrace each other waiting anxiously for the Preventers to break through that door.
Relena: You know.I'm much too use to this by now. I've been thinking about resigning my position as Vice-Foreign Minister.
Hamilton: What about the colonies? I thought you stayed on as Vice-Foreign Minister for them.
Relena: I stayed on to assure the colonies, help keep peace for both, earthlings and colony citizens, and make a difference in life.
Hamilton: And you have made a difference. Look at what you helped build.
Relena: No.I only helped point mankind in the right direction. The people are the one's responsible for building this peaceful world. Or, at least I hope it's peaceful.
Hamilton: It is. Yes, there will always be those that have their own different views of what a peaceful place should be.but thanks to you.you helped achieve total pacifism.
Relena: This is total pacifism? No.there's no such thing. I realize that now. There will always be those causing problems and disrupting the peace. But.this is as close as mankind has ever gotten to it. And it wasn't because of me, but because they wanted it that badly. And even if they don't achieve total pacifism.this is as close as they have ever come to it. And that's good enough.
Hamilton: But you did help out somewhat. Don't you want to continue to at least help make a difference?
Relena: There's more than enough people to do that. I just.I just want to live a normal life from now on. That's something I've never had before.
Hamilton: .ok. If that's what you want, then I support you completely. Whatever you decide is fine by me.
*They see the doorknob begin to turn.
Hamilton: They've come!
*The door opens and Trant enters the room.
Trant: AH.sounds of gunfire. Truly a world of total pacifism.
Hamilton: You've lost Trant. (He stands up) Preventers are storming the hotel. It's over.
Trant: You're wrong. Now, it begins.
*Back outside, Duo and Noin are dropped off on the roof by the news chopper.
Duo: Looks like someone already beat us to the punch.
Noin You think it's him?
Duo: Probably. Here, we'll take this staircase over here.
*Duo and Noin goes through a door to begin making their way down the western staircase. Meanwhile, at the other staircase, Richmond awaits at the entrance towards the roof as he awaits to hear a transmission on his radio saying the chopper has arrived. Back inside the hotel room, Hamilton tries to talk some sense into his brother.
Hamilton: Begins? How does it begin?
Trant: I needed a way to get out of here, and now I do.
Hamilton: You're talking about your precious mobile armor?
Trant: That's right.
Hamilton: What're you hoping to accomplish through Beowulf?
Trant: .to make everyone pay for ignoring me.
Hamilton: Make everyone pay? That is what this is all about? I mean for real? No desire to try and advance military technology? No desire to rule the E.S.U.N.? I mean how many people is everyone, Trant!? How many people are going to have to die because of your anger!?
Trant: My goal was to try and advance military technology once.but I was ignored when I tried to do so. This is my way of dealing with my anger. This is the path Zero has given to me.
Hamilton: Zero? ZERO!? Are you telling me that not only are you a cross between a cartoonish "let's kill everyone villain" and a psychotic nutcase that has gone completely mad all because the world pissed him off.
Trant: Did you cartoonish?
Hamilton: .but also, that you're taking orders from a machine?
Trant: I am not cartoonish or psychotic..nor am I taking orders from a machine.
Hamilton: Isn't this what Zero told you to do?
Trant: This is the path that Zero guided me towards.
Hamilton: That's not the same thing as taking orders from a machine?
Trant: Zero pointed me towards a direction and I chose it. I chose out of my own free will.
Hamilton: I find that hard to believe, brother. It just seems like you're being controlled!
Trant: I'M NOT BEING CONTROLLED! ZERO SHOWED ME THAT I WAS BEING IGNORED!
Hamilton: There you go with Zero told you this again! Open your eyes.a machine is controlling you're future.
Trant: That's not true!
Hamilton: Tell me.how many people will have to die to satisfy you and Zero?
Trant: Just shut up!
Hamilton: How many people will have to die just to make Zero happy!? How many people do you intend on killing on your insane rampage, just to satisfy a machine controlling your mind!
Trant: Is that what you think? Do you really want to find out? LET'S SEE IF IT JUST TAKES ONE!
*He takes out a gun and points it towards his brother's head. Before he can say anything, Trant pulls the trigger and blood splatters all over Trant's clothing as he has just shot his own brother dead. Relena screams in horror seeing her husband die. She runs to his lifeless body.
Relena: NOOO! HAMILTON, WAKE UP! OH GOD NO, DON'T LET THIS HAPPEN. HAMILTON!!!
*Trant looks down at Relena who holds her husbands lifeless body in her arms.
Trant: I did him a favor. I decided that he shouldn't have to watch his wife die after all. But don't worry. You'll be with him shortly.
*He points the gun towards Relena as she gets up.
Relena: You monster. We were going to live a normal life together. We were going to grow old, raise our son, die together.but you took that away.
Trant: Oh please. You're barely breaking my heart.
Relena: You killed your own brother. You pointed that gun towards his head point and shot him point blank.without hesitation.
Trant: I didn't hesitate because I didn't see him as my brother anymore. Or did you just so happen to miss me saying that while you were in your dream world? Reality can be very cruel compared to the world you want, Queen Relena.
*She looks in horror as Trant begins to slowly pull the trigger. Suddenly, he hears a click behind him.
Trant: Heero.Yuy.
*He turns around to see Heero pointing a gun at him. He points his gun at Heero.
Relena: Heero!
*He see Relena behind him, with her husbands blood all over her clothes, and her husband Hamilton, lying dead on the floor.
Heero: .Trant Clark.
Trant: I don't recall ever saying my name to you. Somebody must've been doing his homework.
Heero: Why'd you do it Trant? Why did you kill your own brother?
Trant: You even know that much. Well, I'd tell you the entire story.but I really don't feel like it and it's not my fault that you've been missing the show the past two days.
Heero: The Zero System made you crazy.didn't it?
Trant: WHY DOES EVEYONE SAY THAT? I mastered the system you idiot. Just like you did.
Heero: You didn't master it. I mastered it because I was able to control myself. But look at yourself.
Trant: Zero opened my eyes. Heero, you should know what I'm talking about.
Heero: .I said to myself I would never kill again. But you obviously show no mercy to anyone, even your own brother. I shouldn't show you any either.
*He begins to slowly pull the trigger.
Trant: It's nice to have a family.
Heero: What?
Trant: I said, it's nice to have a family. A wife. A son. It would be a shame if something were to happen to them.
*He has an angered look on his face.
Trant: Hear me out for a second, if you will. You're not the only one that does their homework. You have a wife, named Sandra. And a son, Akihiro is it? An infant son at that. Even you managed to live a normal life of all people.
Relena: Heero.a wife.and son?
Heero: Where are you getting at?
Trant: Let's play a little game. Now, that clock says 2:58:45. Almost a minute away from 3 o'clock. Now, if you're unlucky, chances are that your wife is receiving a package right now. And in that package is a little.oh, how should I put this, explosive gift.
Heero: You lie!
Trant: Do I? Now here's the game. If I did send your family a bomb, that clock will beep at 3 o'clock. But, could I be trying to distract you? Maybe I didn't set that clock, and I'm just trying to have you take your eyes off of me for a split second so I can shoot you first. Or maybe, I'm not bluffing.
*Heero's hands begin to tremble.
Trant: You want to shoot me.but now your attention is elsewhere. Look at your hands. But am I bluffing, or is your family really going to die? We'll find out in 25 seconds.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
*Meanwhile, at the same time, a doorbell rings and Sandra opens the door.
Delivery man: Package for.Akihiro Yuy?
Sandra: For my son?
Delivery: Seems like it. If you would sign here.
Sandra: Of course.
*At the same time, Heero has a frantic look on his face as it is 15 seconds until 3 o'clock. Sandra walks up to the cradle.
Sandra: Hey, Akihiro. You got a package. Oh.from your grandmother. Let's see what's in here.
*She begins to open the package.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
*5.4.3.2.1.the clock beeps.
Trant: Oh, isn't that a shame. Looks like you lose.
Heero: noo.NOOOO!
*Heero fires his gun but his bullet misses Trant as he fires back at Heero. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
*Meanwhile.
Sandra: Aw..that's so nice of your grandmother. A teddy bear.
*She picks up her son into her arms.
Sandra: This is for you. Oh yes it is.
*Her son holds the teddy bear in his arms as she carries him around.
Sandra: We gotta call up and thank her later on. Oh yes we do.
*She walks into the living room and sees the T.V. which is turned off.
Sandra: .what am I going to find on that television set?
*She turns on the television and sees a news report on.
Reporter: It appears the conflict is coming to an end as authorities have most of the building under their control. There is no official word on if the hostages have been rescued yet.
Sandra: What about Heero? IS HE ALIVE? Is he going to keep his.promise?
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
*Back at the hotel, the gun Heero was holding is shot out of his hand.
Trant: Isn't that amazing. You have no idea how long it took me to master a shot like that. I could've killed you right there and then.but I just wanted to see that look on your face a bit longer.
*Duo and Noin are now just one floor under the Presidential Suite.
Duo: Looks like Heero must've cleared the way.
Noin: Oh god.I hope Relena is all right.
*She's suddenly shot in the back of her leg and falls to the ground.
Duo: MS. NOIN!
*He drags her around the corner and takes over behind the wall from three guards.
Duo: Are you all right Noin?
Noin: I'm fine. They just got me in my leg. I'll be all right.
Duo: Those bastards!
*He takes a grenade out and throws it at the three guards. They try to run as fast as they can but are caught in the explosion and killed instantly.
Duo: Come on Noin. We have to keep going.
Noin: I'll only slow you down.
Duo: I'm not going to leave you here!
Noin: Just go. Your number one priority should be rescuing the hostages.
Duo: But.
Noin: GO NOW!
Duo: .damn it!
*Duo heads towards the staircase, leaving Noin behind. Back at the hotel room.
Heero: Oh.my.god.
*Heero drops to his knees.
Trant: Look at yourself. Pathetic. You actually let your emotions take you over. That's not like you, Heero. I guess becoming a family man can really change a man. And how do you know I was tell the truth in the first place? Maybe it was all a bluff. Well, I guess you'll only find out if you see your wife and kid in hell with you.
*Meanwhile, Duo approaches the Presidential suite.
Duo: There's three entrances. West, East, and North side entrance to the Presidential Suite. Which one should I take.
*As he turns the corner, he notices the North entrance door is left wide open.
Duo: Open? Did they get out?
*He slowly walks to the open door. He takes a peak at what's inside and notices Trant holding a gun towards Heero, who is on his knees.
Duo: No way. Is he in trouble?
Trant: You've lost that killer instinct. What a pathetic way for a man to die, on his knees. Especially for you, Heero.
Duo: Gotta move now!
*Duo comes out of hiding and shoots Trant in the arm. That shot makes him drop his gun.
Trant: What the hell?
*He sees Duo pointing a gun at him. He looks at him closely and realizes who he is.
Trant: YOU! I'm surprised a man like you were able to get here too. Knowing your history, I figured you would just screw up on your way here.
Duo: I guess you figured wrong. Hey Heero.are you all right bud?
*He notices a dead man right behind Trant, and blood all over Trant's clothes.
Duo: Did you do this, Trant!?
Trant: Oh god. I really think I've talked long enough now.
*He drops a grenade out of his pocket and it rolls toward Heero. Duo is distracted by it and Trant begins to run out of the room. Duo tries to shoot him on his way but misses him.
Duo: DAMN! Look out Heero!
*He runs and pushes Heero out of the way. The grenade explodes, but it's a very small explosion compared to what a grenade should have.
Duo: He used that grenade mainly as a decoy. But the explosion could've still killed you, Heero.
*He sees a frightened look on Heero's face.
Duo: Heero.come on. Snap out of it! Is Relena all right?
Heero: I.I.
*Duo turns around and sees Relena laying on the floor.
Duo: Oh no! We're too late.
*He runs over to her body and realizes that she's already dead.
Duo: A shot right into the chest. Trant did this, didn't he!
Heero: My.my shot.
Duo: Huh? What was that, Heero?
*He remembers the shot that he fired at Trant and also ses the image of his shot hitting Relena in the chest.
Heero: I missed Trant.and shot her by accident. I.I killed her.
Duo: What? No way, this can't be happening.
Heero stares at Relena's lifeless body.
Heero: I only wanted to help her. Oh god, what've I done. I.I didn't mean to.
To be continued.
