The Everlasting Story
Chapter 3: Mission Accepted

"Mhm.. Okay.. Yeah, I'm fine.." Trowa was on the phone with Dr. J, and he knew the other doctors were listening in. They had wanted to know if he was okay.
"Can I take a wild guess? There's another mission, right?" He asked. They replied a positive. Trowa nodded to Quatre, who was sitting on a stool at the kitchen table in the small, semi-modern kitchen, where Trowa was using the beige wall-phone. "Uh-huh... Yeah, I'll tell the others.. Okay! Goodbye already!" He hung up.
"What's the mission?" Quatre asked.
"Simply put, destroy the Lake Victoria base before the Gundam there is completed." Trowa said, "They're attempting to build a Gundam at the Lake Victoria base, but sources say it's not complete enough that it can move or give us any trouble.."
"Okay... That's good.." Quatre paused, and realization sunk in, "A GUNDAM?!"
"That's right." Heero said from the doorway.
"You heard, too?" Trowa asked. Heero nodded.
"I was listening from the other phone." He replied, "I told the others already."
"Thanks.. Save us the trouble." Quatre replied.
Heero looked them over.
"Trowa, you'd better get your Gundam.. I didn't know you'd be out of the hospital this early." Heero remarked.
"I'm not supposed to be out of the hospital yet.. But, you can take that up with several unconscious doctors.." Trowa told him. Heero nodded, hiding a grin.
"Anyway, bring the Gundanium, too, to repair the Gundams with.. Quatre, you help him. I'll stay here and work on bringing Zero up to the job." Heero said.
An hour later, the Gundanium, Heavyarms, and Sandrock were in the hanger with the other Gundams and their pilots.
"Good work.. YEE GADS! Trowa, you're not supposed to be out of bed yet!" Duo said in his best 'mom' voice.
"Funny, REAL funny, Maxwell." Trowa said to him, "It's all there."
"Okay, let's get at it then." Heero told them, "Don't forget to get them in top condition, in case the doctor's information was wrong about that Gundam."
"YOU BET!" Duo said, happily carrying off a peice of Gundanium and a blowtorch.
"I'll help, Quatre. I used to be a professional mechanic." Trowa told him.
"Thanks." Quatre replied.
A few hours later, the Gundams were top condition, and the Gundanium was gone.
"That's it, see? Nothing to it." Trowa demonstrated sharpening the edge of one of Quatre's Gundam's sickles with a blowtorch and a peice of Gundanium.
"Thanks, Trowa. Now I can do my own mechanics." Quatre said, picking up a peice of Gundanium and helping Trowa sharpen the edge of the sickle.
"No problem." Trowa replied.
"Okay, let's go!" Duo called.
They suited up.
A while later, they arrived to find the Lake Victoria base completely deserted.
"What?" Quatre asked, alarmed by the sight of the abandoned base.
"What'd they do? Move and forget to leave a forwarding address?" Duo asked.
"Apparently. Hey, are you guys getting that Mobile Suit on radar?" Trowa asked.
"Yeah, it's coming straight for us." Heero told them.
"I can see it now.. Looks like..... A Gundam?!" Trowa said, surprised. It was coming right for them.
"Surrender now, or be terminated." A voice, the pilot of the unknown Mobile Suit, told them.
"And who the HELL are you?" Duo asked.
"Surrender now, Gundam Pilots." The voice said again. It was female.
"Who are you? Tell us!" Trowa yelled, making sure that she would have had to be deaf not to hear him. The unknown Gundam came in front of them.
It was huge. White with red, bearing a color design the exact opposite of the Heavyarms'. No machine gun, Trowa noted, a beam gatling, but not the equivilant of the Wing Gundam's. In the other arm was a knife just like Trowa's.
"Trowa Barton. Come forward. Fight me now." The voice told him, "Or I will destroy your friends. I want a fair battle." The voice held a cold and emotionless tone to it.
"Fine then." Trowa said, stepping forward in his Heavyarms Gundam, and then yelled, "Go! You four. This is my battle. Clear out." They did so.
He suddenly leapt back and fired the machine gun repeatedly at his enemy. The enemy fired her beam gatling at him, but he dodged. He wasn't one of the fastest Gundam Pilots for nothing.
"Gotta be faster than him.. Come ON!" Called the unknown pilot.
"You're going to lose. Why don't you just be a good girl and give up?" Trowa chided her, playing on her pride to get to her.
"I don't THINK so!" She called, pulling out a beam saber and slashing at Trowa, but she soon found that she was slashing at thin air.
"Where did you GO?! She cried, then felt a jolt at her back. She spun around, slashing at him.
"Ah!" Trowa had been hit by her beam saber, and he dropped the machine gun on the left arm, "You're good." He said, then hit her so hard she dropped the beam gatling, "I'm better."
The other Gundam and Trowa's Heavyarms were locked in battle, each blocking the other's attacks. They always seemed to know exactly what the other would do.
"What's going ON out there? I can't see!" Duo complained.
"Shh.. I want to see what's happening.. Come ON, Trowa.." Quatre said, shushing Duo.
The battle went on, Trowa would try an attack and the other Gundam would counter it, or vice-versa.
"I don't think you'll live through this, Trowa." The other pilot told him.
"Funny, I was just thinking you wouldn't." Trowa gritted his teeth as he jabbed at the other Gundam, who blocked it. They were in a form of beam saber combat.
Good thing I never took the beam saber out after the battle in Antarctica.. Trowa thought.
He slashed at the other Gundam again, and just almost got throught the tough defense the other pilot was displaying. Trowa hit the offensive, attacking powerfully but not enough to destroy the other Gundam.
It's too much.. Don't know how long I can keep this up.." Trowa whispered to himself.
He launched another offensive, putting the other Gundam in a bad place; somewhere between him and a cliff. The other Gundam couldn't get away, but it still managed to know exactly what he was going to do.
The other pilot grunted as one of her defenses failed and she was hit by Trowa's beam saber. He launched another offensive but she regained composure and blocked the attack.
"She's good!" Trowa exclaimed, realizing that she always seemed to every move he would do before he did it. But, he could tell, sense, what she would do also, before she could get it off.
He slashed again, but did something very not like him. He tricked her. Made her think he was hitting for the cockpit, she would try to dodge it, and he would hit the Gundam in the chest, hopefully incapacitating it.
He tried that plan, and it worked beautifully as the pilot gasped and the Gundam fell as it's pilot went unconscious.
"Good work!" Quatre told him, approaching him.
"Thanks.. It wasn't easy. Whoever it was knew me well enough to anticipate every move that I would make.." Trowa said, uneasy, with the feeling that it was someone he wouldn't have wanted to fight.
Who was that? Trowa wondered silently. He looked at Quatre and shook his head.
"What's wrong, Trowa?" Quatre asked.
"I can't help but think that I've heard that voice before..." Trowa said softly.
