Disclaimers - I don't own it, If I did
I would be very ric.....
Wait I used this one before...
Sorry! :-)



Story Synopsis - At the end of the war, Char Anzable
and his Neo Zeon were defeated by
Amuro Ray, Bright Noa, Shiro Amada
and the Londo Bell forces. But the
conquences on both sides were numerous,
especially for the Legendary 08th Moble
Suit Team from the One Year War, and now
the Neo Zeon War. The 08th MS Team lost
Terry Sanders Jr. after a fierce battle
with the Red Comet himself. What will
happen now that the battle is over?



I thank you for all the reviews I have got for this. It was fun writing
one of the first 08th MS Team fics on this site, and hopefully there will
be a lot more. It took me a while to figure out how to end this, but I came
up with something, and I hope you like it. Oh, and sorry for killing Sanders.
He's my favorite character, and it did hurt me to kill him off, but it was
nesserary to the plot, so it had to be done. Oh, and if you don't mind a plug for someone
else besides me, read Darkness Master's Not All It Seems. It's an 08th MS Team fic too, and
you'll enjoy it if you read it. Now, read on, and review at the end
please!

CHAPTER 7 - UNTIL THE END OF TIME

___________________________________________________________________________________________________


1 week after Sanders died, the war ended. Char and Amuro had their duel, then disappeared from history.
Another week after that, The 08th MS Team was able to go home. It took a little longer because Kiki had to
give command to a new leader so she could go home with her husband, Michel. Sooner than later, they all
went home.

PLANE RIDE HOME

"I'm glad that's over! I thought they would never began to let you go Kiki, but you were so consistant."
"Yep! Now I can go home with you my husband, and then we can spend the rest of our lives together!"
"I'm looking foward to it Kiki!" "Hey Shiro!" "Yeah Eledore?" "You know how they say we're legendary?"
"Yes, I have heard that. What's the point?" "Well, I was thinking, maybe they'll put statues of us up!
Or name a bridge, ar a street after us! Or..." Eledore got smacked in the head by Karen. "Eledore, you're
imagination's overworking again." "*sigh* True.....But I can still dream!" Aina and Shiro laughed at that.
Karen just sighed. Michel and Kiki were too caught up in their dreams of life together to hear. Aina thought
of something that had a relevence to a life that was crushed. "Shiro dear, what about Ami Sanders? Who's gonna
take care of her?" Aina now had everyone's attention. "Aina, what do you think?" "I Think one of us has to
take care of her. She can't live by herself! She's not even old enough to get a job!" The couples talked to their
spouses, and a few minutes later they were ready to share the results of their discussions. "I really don't
think Eledore and I are ready for it, but if none of you can, we will." "Aina and I already have a child, but,
I think....." "Michel and I will take care or her!" Everyone looked at Kiki. "Sorry Shiro, but I know Michel, and
I could raise her like our own child. Is that ok Shiro?" Shiro sweatdropped. "Yeah, of course. But you know the
responcibilties involved....." "Yeah Shiro, we know. Right Michel?" "Yeah, Kiki and I can handle it!"
"Ok, that's settled. Now, let's play Poker!" Shiro's idea got a collective "NO!", and they went about talking
with each other for the rest of the ride home.

BACK HOME

The 08th Team first went over to the Sanders' home to see Ami. Kiki and Michel held firm in their resolve
to take Ami into their home. Shiro went up and knocked on the door. After a couple minutes of waiting,
and a few more of Karen cursing, Ami finally came and opened the door. "IT'S ABOUT DAMNED TIME!!!!!"
"Karen, you can calm down now." Karen just hmphed to Eledore's comment. "Hi Unlce Shiro! And everyone else!"
Then she looked at Kiki, and became confused. "Have we met?" "I don't belive so. Hi, I'm Kiki Ninorich."
"You mean Uncle Michel got married?" "Yeah!" "Oh, I'm Ami Sanders, nice to meet you." Kiki and Ami shook hands, then
Shiro spoke up again. "Ami, We've got something to tell you, so can we come inside and sit down? This might take
a while." Ami nodded and let Shiro, Aina, and the rest of the 08th MS Team inside.


INSIDE

After Ami and Aina made coffee for everyone, everyone was ready to chat. "Well Uncle Shiro, what's on your mind?"
"Well,...how do I put this...umm...well...uhh...Ami, you know you can't take care of this house by yourself right?"
"Yes, what's your point?" "Well, um.." "Do you mean that one of you people have to take care of me?" Shiro had a stunned
look on his face, so Aina answered. "That's exactly what he means dear." "I thought as much. So who am I gonna live with
Aunt Aina?" Michel spoke up. "You'll be staying with Kiki and myself, if that's ok with you." She nodded at him. "Ok then.
We'll adopt you, and for your 18th Birthday, you will be given this house back. How's that sound?" She brighened up.
"I thought you would like that. I'll go down to the court tomorrow and make it official." All the sudden, the group heard
someone coming down the stairs. "Ami, who else is here?" "DADDY!! MOMMY!!!" Rose ran and clamped onto Shiro. "Still want
an answer Shiro?" "Shut up Eledore." After a bit of tring, they got Rose off of Shiro. "Well Mom and Dad, what's up?"
"Michel and Kiki are going to adopt Ami, we're here, and Eledore and Karen are a bit frisky." "Well, that's it in a
nutshell. Your mom put it well." Rose and Ami looked at one another, and nodded. Rose went over and sat next to her friend.
"Dad, Ami and I have something to tell you." "Norris isn't dead is he?" Someone else came down the staircase. "I heard that
Shiro. And no I'm not for your infromation." Shiro sweatdropped. "Mom, Dad, Ami and I are in love." Everyone's jaw hit the floor,
and Shiro fainted. Norris wasn't surprised, but when he found out he was as surprised as everyone. "Well, uhh, we'll give you
time to think over what we just said." Ami and Rose walked out of the room, but before Ami looked back at Michel. "Uncle Michel,
don't forget your promise now!" ".....I.....won't....."

A FEW HOURS LATER

Shiro finally came to, and they had a very deep discussion. Finally they agreed to let the relationship continue. Everyone went
home soon, after Ami gathered her things of course. Michel legally adopted Ami the next day, and everything was going well.

1 YEAR LATER

The 08th MS Team met at the Sanders' home this time. But they all weren't alone, all of them had
.....babies. "Shiro! Well I haven't seen you in a while! And Aina, it's been a long time!" "Hey Eledore! How's Karen?"
"Great! Hey, where's Michel and Kiki?" "They're coming soon, don't worry." "Rose is here?" "Yeah, she's inside."
Eledore, Karen, Shiro, and Aina went inside. Sooner than later, Michel, Kiki, and Ami went came. They all had some coffee,
and became ready to talk." "Well, Eledore and I have been doing well. Eledore's doing well with his prouducing and writing
music, and I'm doing well as a doctor. We also had a baby as you can see." "Aww, how cute!" Aina and Kiki said at the same time.
Karen smiled. "I made him myself!" Eledore proudly said, earning a hit from Karen. Everyone laughed. "Well we named him Kevin,
and we're very glad parents." Kiki was the next person to speak up. "Well Michel and I, as you know are taking care of Ami, and
I think we're doing a good job raising her." 'Well, she is like a mom to me' Ami thought. "Michel is doing well with his busniess,
and we're real happy. Oh, and we had a baby too." "Aww, how cute!" Aina and Karen said. "Yep, I'm a happy father. And guardian as
well!" Michel stated. "Well, we named him Howie. So that's us. Oh and Ami and Rose are still going out."
Aina spoke up this time. "Well, Shiro and I had another child as well." "Aww, he's beautiful!" Kiki and Karen said. "I know!"
Shiro said, earning chuckles from Eledore and Michel. "Well, his name is Alexander James, I named him this time." "Well,
Aina, you picked out a good name." "Thank you." "Now are we going?" "Yeah, Let's go." They all stood up, and the men went to put the
babies in the car. The women joined them outside, and they left for the cemetary.

They got to the cemetary, and everyone brought flowers with them. After a bit of walking, they came to a headstone with a Virgin Mary
statue on it. They all knelt and said a prayer. The headstone said:

TERRENCE SANDERS JR.
DEVOTED FATHER, FRIEND, AND SOLDER
MEMBER OF THE 08TH MOBLE SUIT TEAM
REST IN PEACE UNTIL THE END OF TIME

After a little bit, they walked away. 'Goodbye Father. I shall always love you Until the End of Time' Ami Sanders thought.
Shiro, Aina, Eledore, Karen, Rose, and Ami all cried, they lost a good friend, but the war ended, and peace was acheved.

"We're here Usso. Now explain to me why we're here? The Leauge Militare is gonna be pissed!" "Well, there is something I want
to see here. This place has statues and memorials to all the solders of the One Year War, and there's one certin thing I want
to see." "You came here to see statues of solders from 80 years ago???" "Just 5. Follow me Shakti."
Ussa and Shakti walked around the park. They walked past statues of Ryu Jose, Kai Shiden, Sayla Mass, Sleggar Law,
Bright Noa, Frau Bow, Mirai Yashima, Hayato Kobayahi, and Amuro Ray, but Usso wasn't interested in them. Then they came into
the center of the park's garden, and found 5 statues in this pattern:

1 3

5

"Here's what I wanted to see. Like them Shakti?" Shakti was breathless and speechless.
The statue in the upper left corner was of Eledore Massis.
The statue in the lower left corner was of Karen Joshua.
The statue in the upper right corner was of Michel Ninorich.
The statue in the lower right corner was of Terry Sanders Jr..
The statue in the middle was of Shiro Amada and Aina Sahalin with one arm around each other.

"See Shakti, They're of the 08th MS Team, legends of our time, Until The End Of Time." Usso stated.
