Three: Angels of Hope

"Ok, since it seems that all seven of you want to help, I will need to get more training devices to get the training program going faster. I should be able to obtain the former training devises from all of the former bases of the five scientists," decided Quatre Winner, his eyes holding the gaze of the five teenagers and one twenty-year-old in turn, all of which nodded in unison.

"Good, I have informed all of your parents that you will need to stay here in order to receive training. They have consented to go back to the colonies they came from to await your return, which I estimate will be in three to five months. Depending on different things that may appear as this retaliation continues."

Five months, thought Mack to himself, that you've learned by now is never only to himself.

What? thought Sally in an airy kind of tone, teasing Mack, getting home sick are you?

No, only thinking how that I don't think that this is going to be a one shot win. It's going to take a lot longer.

I feel the same way.

Three Months Later…

"Good morning, Katrina, Mack, Sally, Meiran, Ariel, Seiko," Quatre greeted them to breakfast as he had become accustom to for the past three months.

"Good morning, Mr. Winner," they all coursed finishing the morning ritual as they each seated themselves to eat.

'Morning Sally, thought Mack as he looked over to the other side of the long table at her.

Good morning Mr. Cheery.

Hey! I haven't had my…

"Good morning bro'. Why on earth are you staring at Meiran's little sister? Oh! You have a crush on her don't you," assumed Kat sitting down beside Mack grinning the Maxwell grin, elbowing him slightly in the ribs.

…breakfast…. he finished the thought before shouting at his sister indignantly, "What the heck are you thinking…?!"

Mack's usual morning protests where cut of early as Quatre stood then spoke, "I would like to announce that your training has reached a new point. That point is the phase where you will design you own Gundam, which I will review for, flaws or miscalculations. Now once you all are done with your breakfast, I would like you to follow me."

Under his breath Mack murmured to Kat, "Where on earth did you get that idea from?"

"Oh, I don't know, maybe it's that you only stare at her every morning. Every time she's in your vicinity, every time she speaks, yells at Meiran, walks into a room, walks out of a room, is in a room…" Kat summed up, counting off her fingers.

"Oh come on, can't you tell that I'm looking at the coffee machine behind her? I'm trying to decide what kind to have today," Mack made up a story trying to hide the odd conversations in his head he'd been having.

"So, that explains why you stare at her all those other times!"

"Kat!"

Smooth move, Coffee Head. The only flavor you ever have had each morning I've seen you here is de-cafe. You stink at covering up things, and you always have your coffee in hand before I enter the room. Also never in the other rooms, Sally teased as she rose from the table to follow Quatre, like the rest of the group.

That hurts; you know that? Mack asked sarcastically giving her one if Duo's patented 'I am pretending to pout' faces as the group walked over to the tech center where Quatre had lead them.

"Okay, now that you are all here, I would like to show you something that happened to be aired this morning on the news." Then, when Quatre finished addressing the people before him, he produced a remote and pressed a button making a television come down from the ceiling then turn on to a news channel.

"This morning we have breaking news for you. On colony L6-25-A, there was a militaristic coup, which only one camera on board a cleaning MS was able to capture. That MS contained the only person, who managed to escape the colony alive so far in the uprising," the young woman finished then pressed a button on the console in front of her.

A tape with grainy resolution began showing the side of a colony and a pair of robotic arms with utensils used for cleaning. Next, a shot sounded, and they saw twelve suits being picked off, then another shot the camera spun, plummeting away from the colony. Then Quatre slowed the tape so the group could see that the remaining MS pried open the hatch to the colony allowing the hostile MS to enter then follow themselves.

"As you see, this group of rebels is becoming ever more prevalent and aggressive in their brash attacks. With the current rulings from the senate, there will be no militarized resistance. Now that it has been over twenty years since the last up rising like this, the Preventer organization was completely disbanded two years ago. You six are the only hope that the UESN has left. However, I warn you, you must be their guardian angels not their destroying angels," Quatre emphasized that point looking at each of his pupils in turn as he always did. "Now, on a more hopeful note, I would like to tell you that we will start to design your Gundam now first we –" Quatre was cut off by Kat's thought.

"Mr. Winner, I think that I need to skip this stage because I have already designed my own Gundam in fact…" Kat slowed her speech producing a working model, blue prints, and other assorted junk. "I have the blue prints, and the working model of it, and the not working model of it, and a colored drawing of it," Kat as usual counted the things off on her fingers.

"That's good, Kat, since you have all of the items that I was going to require you make I will review your work. Then you may help the others as needed," Quatre instructed carrying the items off except for the models, which Kat decided to take back to her room while she waited.

Let's see you carry the five, divide by seven, Mack thought in his head.

Mack why are you doing math problems? We're supposed to be choosing our Gundam's weapons. Sally asked.

Oh, well I didn't recognize the type of mobile suit in the video so I'm looking over the video to calculate their apparent battle strength. That way I know what weapons would be best.

…that's good… tell me when you're done ok?

Sure.
