Main Synopsis:
15 year old Rain was a test pilot. A nameless, faceless solider used and manipulated by war driven scientists. But the special psychic bond shared by her Gundam, Phantom, will prove to be more then just an experiment, but her only ticket out of a cruel fate and onto a battlefield scattered with people possessing answers about her past and her long lost family.
*********
The year is A.C. 238. After over 50 years of peace between the Earth and the Space Colonies a war is beginning. A new leader representing all of the Colonies and the ideal of greater unity has begun his term and has more in mind then just ruling the Colonies. After detaching the colonies from ESUN .(Earth Space United Nations; which evolved from Preventers) The leader known only as 'Pegasus' has rasied a gigantic army called Angels from Above (AFA for short but known as AFH 'Angels from Hell' by all those who apose them ) to fight the Earth and defeat them so he may bring the Earth into his idea of 'unity' as well. Knowing this would happen the Earth raises it's own army therefore making ESUN a thing of the past. As the Earth and the Colonies again begin fighting, the leader of the now almost exstingished ESUN, Relena Dorlain-Yuy, has called upon all of the past Gundam pilots to bring their grandchildren to each command their own ESUN. Corp. ESUN therefore becomes it's own army fighting in an attempt to stop the outbreaking of war.

"My imagenary friend thinks you have a serious mental problem"
*Authors Note* Hehe. Every time I end a chapter or whatever I'm going to but a funny little saying or quote at the end and some chapters may even have the lyrics to some songs that go with the chapter. For my amusement and yours. Ok so I lied, I didn't put a beginner to the story here but oh well, that will just force you to read the next chapter. I don't have a title for the next one yet, actually at this moment I don't really know what it should be about . But no need to worry I have an idea. Hehe. Ok until then Momentai. (Japanese for chill out)
****************************
Authors Note: After I started writing "When I Close My Eyes" I wrote a poem with the same name to go with it. Bellow is the poem which contains the main theme of the fanfic. Enjoy!
When I close My Eyes
When I close my eyes,
I dream of a far off place,
A place were no one is lonley,
Where everyone has a family,
When I close my eyes,
I dream of the past,
A past of confusion,
Where eveything is a blure,
When I close my eyes,
I dream of the present,
A time of chaos,
- Where war is life,
When I close my eyes,
I dream of the future,
A future of happiness,
Where war is absolite,
- When I close my eyes,
I can escape,
The past, present, and future,
Where I can dream the perfect dream,
But this is only true,
When I close my eyes.
