Chapter 3: The Zeon Assault

When we got back to the base, we deposited our GM Customs for repair in the hangar, then headed to the briefing room. The engineer aboard the Medea was brought before a committee including me, Joe, Rob, General Davis, and other Federation officials on our base.
"Well, well, I guess you weren't ready for this," General Davis said with a smile. "Alright, we want to hear what you know about the new Gelgoog aboard the Medea transport."
The Zeon engineer gave us an evil grin. "You expect me to reveal to you the specs of one of our suits with nothing in return??"
Colonel Jones, who was sitting next to me, said, "Well, you could tell us, or get executed like your pilot buddies who are on their way to be executed now. Choose."
His grin faded, and he said, defeated, "The Gelgoog on board the ship is called the Gelgoog Storm. It's booster power is 1/2 times more powerful as on Anavel Gato's Gelgoog, due to the boosters added to the legs, and the enhanced backpack boosters. It features two Beam Sabers, stored in the arms, and the standard Beam Rifle and the standard 120MM Machine Gun stored on the waist. It was built a long ways away, and despite the fact we got a lot of test data, my superiors still needed more data. So the MS and I were to be sent to a nearby base. Satisfied??"
"Very", remarked General Davis. He was about to add more when the base rumbled.
"Haha!!" The engineer laughed. "When we were attacked, I activated the tracking beacon linked to the nearby base. Soon, Zeon Suits will level this place!!!"
"Josh, Joe, Rob! Get out there and start fighting! and take the 10th, 12th, and 13th MS Teams with you!" the General yelled as he had two soldiers take the engineer to a holding cell. We ran out of the room and ran the entire way to the hangar. They had just finished the repairs on my suit when I jumped in. We were immediately sent out. Zakus and Dom Tropens were appearing all around.
"How did that base manage to keep this many Mobile Suits?!?!" I shouted as I blasted through a Zaku II. Another one appeared in it's place, and it barely had a chance to shoot before the leader of the 12th MS Team blew his head off. The suits just kept on coming. Suddenly, the ground near us was hit with something heavy.
"Josh," General Davis said over the transmission, "It looks like were gonna have to deal with some Xamel suits."
"Crap," I mumbled as I sliced a Dom Tropen in half.
"Josh! Take this!" Joe yelled as he tossed me a weapon. It was a discarded 360MM Bazooka from a Dom Tropen.
"This will work very nicely," said, grinning. I turned around and pointed it at a Dom Tropen about to shoot out a round from his Bazooka and fired. The explosion, combined with the explosive power of the other round was enough to wipe out the Dom Tropen along with another one. Another explosion from a Xamel's cannon rocked the battlefield. Another one hit a member of the 13th MS Team, destroying him instantly. I immediately sped off towards the source of the cannon fire, one of the Xamels. He saw me coming and fired several missiles at me. I avoided all but one, which shatered both of my legs and the lower part of my left arm. I fell to the ground. While I was falling, I used my head mounted Vulcan guns to blow a hole in the head. Then, using my right arm with great difficulty, I proped myself up with my shield and used the rest of my Vulcan ammo to blow off his cannon, before collapsing to the ground once again. Joe ran up and finsihed him off with a slash of his saber.
"I figured you would need a little help when I saw you missing your legs and half of your arm."
I laughed and replied, "Keen observation, Captain Obvious."
Joe brought over a Mobile Suit trailer, which carried me and my suit back to the base.

"Well, this was the wrong time to terminally damage your Suit, Josh, because we don't have anything else for you to take out," General Davis said as he met me and Joe in the Hangar.
"What about the Gelgoog??" I asked
"You don't know how to pilot it!!" he responded, surprised at my stupid question.
"Do you have another idea??" I asked.
He stood there for a few more seconds, and yelled to a technician, "Prepair the Gelgoog S. Joshua is going out in it."
A few minutes later, I was straped into the pilot seat of the Gelgoog S, as it was now known as. I rocketed out of the Hangar at unparalleled speed. I grabbed the controls, and pulled out a Beam Saber. I slashed through a few suits. I pulled out the rifle and shot through some more suits. Suddenly, I lost control of the suit and crashed into a nearby hill. I sat there wondering what happened. Luckily, the armor held up against the crash. I stood up and pressed the wrong button, slamming on my boosters. I flew ahead and stopped myself short of crashing into the base. I fired my rifle and took down one more suit before the pressure in the cockpit from the powerful boosters became too unbearable, and I fainted....
