Okay, everyone officially begin to hate me. I know I should be writing
chapter 4 of my Gundam Wing Fanfic, but for some reason I just got this
urge to do an Armitage III one. Hate me if you must, but I'll get back to
writing chapter 4 as soon as possible and work on this one too. It's called
multitasking ^^; Anyway, this one probably sucks like my GW one, but oh
well. I write because I like to and if others like it too, that's just
extra ^^; Please review it!

Armitage III: Search For Paradise
Chapter 1: A New Beginning
The wind blew over the valley as the stars shone high above in the Martian night sky. Armitage shivered a bit in Ross' arms. He looked down at her and smiled as he continued to walk onward. She had exhausted herself in the battle that just happened hours earlier. She deserved the rest he thought. Ross let go of her with one hand for a moment, and with the other, took the uniform jacket off of a corpse lying nearby. Armitage began to stir and a small groan sounded from her throat.
"Nnnngh… What's going on…?" She strained to say, her eyes opening slightly and looking up at Ross, admiring his physic as she always had, even though it was now a mixture of warm flesh and cold metal. Ross wrapped the jacket around Armitage and smiled at her.
"Nothing, now just rest." He said while he replaced his left arm back under her legs. She smiled slightly and closed her eyes again. She was fast asleep a few moments later. Ross' smile soon turned to a frown as he looked across the barren landscape, scattered with corpses and mutilated machines. It had been a hellish battle, but they had won it. "Our troubles aren't over yet though, Armitage…" He said silently. She stirred once again, but didn't wake up this time. Ross continued on, looking for any place they could take refuge for the night. They were still considered wanted criminals for all that has happened, and the only way they could escape it was to go to Earth. At the mere thought of this, Ross shuddered. Images of his partner, being killed by an android flooded his mind. He shut his eyes quickly and shook his head. "Why… Why can't I forget…?" He said silently to himself. It seemed, like his body, his mind was split in two. One part that could love a robot, and the other that has damned every robot in existence. He looked down at Armitage once again and stopped. Her clothing, tattered and her face and hair splattered with sand and mud, yet she still managed to look like an angel. Ross' thoughts drifted back to the night before, that night that they had spent together… In that instant, he not only became the protector of one person, but two. He laughed to himself a bit, wondering what kind of a father he would make. It was a momentary relief from the severaty of their plight. The sun slowly began to rise in the horizon and the stars began to fade from view. "Dawn…" Ross said as Armitage yawned and opened her eyes slightly once again. She gazed up at him and smiled.
"Our lives are beginning once again…" Armitage managed to say, "Together…" Ross looked down at the petite figure in his arms and his mind filled with worry again. What if his hatred for robots would return? He shuddered at the thought once again. He cared for Armitage deeply, and never wanted to hurt her. But, what if… "So… What's for breakfast?" Armitage said, jumping out of Ross' arms, suddenly seeming like her old, hyperactive self again, cutting off Ross' train of thought.
"Armitage…" Ross said, with a smile on his face as the sky turned from black to blue.
