Episode 51
Stalker – Now everyone, as we've seen so far, a woman named Lissa has stolen the new prototype Gundam from Neo-Japan, the Roaring Gundam. Why? We don't know. What we do know, is that she's already succeeded in taking one member of the Shuffle Alliance out of the Gundam fight, and has taken the Princess Maria-Louise captive. Currently, she's headed east to the ruins of old Moscow. Her mission seems to be to take out the Shuffle Alliance. Now let's get things started. Gundam Fight all set, Ready? GO!
"Ascent to Earth. Death of the Joker."
"Gaia Crusher!" Argo yelled, as Bolt Gundam slammed its knee into the frozen tundra of Moscow. The earth uplifted, in a path headed straight for the opposing Gundam.
"Arghh!" The opposing pilot, Genii Manceena, yelled. He fell to the ground, Colossal Gundam of Neo-Italy was scrapped. "Y…your skills have improved greatly, Argo Gulskii." Genii said.
"I try." Argo said simply, helping Genii out of his Gundam. He detached the Mobile Trace System, and walked over to the console Nastasha was sitting at. She looked worried. "Nastasha?" Argo asked. She looked up at him.
"Gundam Rose was destroyed earlier this week," she said.
"What? Who would have… who could have defeated George?" Argo asked.
"Eyewitness reports state that it was… God Gundam." Nastasha said.
"Domon? But he wouldn't. George is a member of the Shuffle Alliance." Argo said.
"The Princess Maria-Lousie has been kidnapped. God Gundam was last seen headed East…" She looked at Argo meaningfully.
"I see… I must notify the others." Argo said, and walked silently back to his home on Earth.
"But why do you have to go, Domon?" Rain asked, begging him to stay home. Domon held up his fist, to show her the burning insignia of the King of Hearts that blazed like a tattoo on his right hand.
"Because I have a responsibility as a member of the Shuffle Alliance… and I have a responsibility as Neo-Japan's Gundam Fighter." He said, turning away. "My crest wouldn't be glowing if something wasn't wrong." Domon said.
"Then let me go with you!" She pleaded.
"No, Rain! I'm not gonna risk something happening to you," he said, and took Rain by the shoulders, staring into her deep blue eyes. "Rain, I want you to stay with Dad and Prime Minister Karato." He said.
"No, Domon! I won't let you!" She said, throwing her arms around him, and sobbing into his shoulder. Domon put a hand on the back of Rain's head.
"Rain…" he began.
"Don't Rain me, Domon! If you don't let me go, I'll just follow you anyway…" she said, wiping her eyes on his cape. Domon chuckled softly.
"Okay, Rain." He said.
"Good," she sniffled.
"I'll tell Dad to prep Rising Gundam for descent." Domon said, and headed out the door.
Argo was awakened by a loud explosion. He jumped out of bed, and looked out of his small window. The building next to his was reduced to a smoking crater. The building that Nastasha slept in. "NASTASHA!" He yelled, and ran outside. He looked up to see a Gundam.
"You…you're not…" Argo said, refusing to believe. The familiar robotic voice came out of the Gundam.
"Meet my little toy… Roaring Gundam!" Lissa yelled.
"Rise Gundam!!!" Argo yelled. This activated Bolt Gundam, which broke out of a glacier a few miles away. Argo jumped toward the cockpit as Bolt Gundam rocketed toward him.
"NO!" Lissa yelled, and ran to cut Argo off. This attempt was in vain however, as Argo made it into the cockpit and quickly activated the Mobile Trace System.
"Who are you?!" Argo demanded.
"My name is Lissa you fool!" She cried, and tackled Bolt Gundam to the ground. Argo, using his brute strength, and battle experience, quickly gained the upperhand. "You piece of filth! I'll destroy you for what you five did to my family!" Lissa Raged. Argo arched an eyebrow.
"Us five? You mean the Shuffle Alliance?" He asked. Lissa broke away from his grasp, and crossed her arms over her chest.
"Yes, the Shuffle Alliance. You're Argo Gulskii… the Black Joker…correct?" She asked. Argo held up his right hand, which was emblazoned with his Shuffle Crest.
"You tell me, Lissa from Neo-Japan." He said. She held up her right hand, which started to glow blue. On her hand, however, a similar symbol was glowing. "What?!?!" Argo asked in disbelief.
"This hand of mine illuminates the night sky…" She began.
"Who are you?!" Argo demanded, readying his Gravitron Hammer.
"Its roar of thunder tells me to destroy you!" She said, her hand glowing brightly.
"Not a chance!" Argo said, swinging his specialty technique at her.
"Roaring Finger!" She screamed, and caught the ball in her hand. It cut through the Gravitron Hammer like butter, and latched onto Argo's cockpit area.
"What are you doing?! Stop it!" Argo pleaded.
"All will fall to the Red Joker!" She said, crushing the cockpit of Bolt Gundam. Then… silence. "Two down… three to go…" She looked up at the night sky, climbing out of her Gundam. Her Mobile Trace Suit was much like Domon's, except white, with the Red circle of Japan in the middle. "Soon, Domon…"
"Ready, Rain?" Domon asked, once he was fully connected to the God Gundam. Rain was undergoing the Mobile Trace sequence with her own Rising Gundam. Once they were both in their respective Gundam's, they stepped onto the carrier. The walls of the carrier closed around them, like a rose that was going back in time.
"I'm ready," She said, clutching Domon's hands. Domon nodded.
"Launching in five… four… three… two… one… GO!" Dr. Kasshu announced. The launch sequence was activated, and the carrier rocketed out of the Neo-Japan docking station and down toward the atmosphere of earth. The carrier of course, kept Rain and Domon safe from the tremendous G-forces and zero-oxygen travel through space, in which they were traveling around a thousand miles per hour. There was turbulance, however. Domon was used to it, but Rain was screaming at the top of her lungs.
"Rain! Calm down!" Domon shouted.
"We're going to crash!!!" Rain screamed.
"Rain stop it! This isn't like you. You know that we're going to be fine. You're always so calm and collected." Domon reassured her.
"Domon!" She screamed, and clutched onto him. He held Rain tightly, until the carrier's landing thrusters began to kick in. Minutes later, the carrier walls retracted, and the two Gundam's stepped out.
"Are you okay?" Domon asked.
"I…I'm fine," Rain said, stepping out of the carrier. "Earth… it's been four years." She said, inhaling the earthbound air. Domon stepped out of God Gundam.
"Yeah… last time we were here, was for the wedding." He said with a smile. She smiled back. "So where are we, Rain?" Domon asked. Rain took out her GPS location pad.
"It looks like we're near the Azure Coast." Rain said. Domon looked puzzled. Rain rolled her eyes. "Didn't you ever pay attention in global geography? We're in southern France." She said.
"France? That means we're close to where George is." Domon said.
"Possibly… hey, your hand." Rain pointed. Domon looked down at his hand. His shuffle crest was glowing.
"Something must be wrong…" Domon said, jumping back into God Gundam. "I've gotta find George." Domon said, and took off.
"Domon wait!" Rain yelled, taking off after him.
"What is it?" he demanded, stopping.
"First off, Paris is north of where we are. You're headed east. Second, why George? Why not get Chibodee? He's as strong as you are." Rain asked.
"Cause we're already here. Everyone one of us is strong, and Chibodee is an ocean away." Domon said, changing his direction.
"But Domon! You need all the help you can get!" Rain said. Domon turned to face her again.
"I can handle Lissa all by myself." Domon said simply.
"You're not just dealing with her! Or have you forgotten that she's in Roaring Gundam?" Rain asked.
"I can handle it. I beat Devil Gundam didn't I?" He said, and turned to leave. Rain grabbed his wrist.
"Now you listen to me! You beat Devil Gundam because of your need to save ME! You don't have that need now. And another thing. Roaring Gundam integrates a benign form of DG cells into its system, inducing self recovery." She said.
"Trust me, Rain. Have faith in me…" Domon said, then blasted off toward Paris.
Stalker – Everyone, it's the moment you've been waiting for. After a costly battle with Neo-Brazil's Savage Gundam, Chibodee finds himself haunted by the ghost of the person he loves most. Meanwhile, Domon finally comes into contact with the defeated George de Sand! And where will Roaring Gundam strike next? Next time, on Mobile Fighter G Gundam, "The Red Knight's Revenge.
