Episode Three: Titan Warriors
"Survivors?" Athrun said.
"That's what Haro is saying," Lacus said, "He did an X-ray scan and saw something that looked like people."
"Well, let's go! Haro, lead the way!" Athrun said.
"Haro!"
Haro bounced away, leading them to a closed door. Athrun listened in on the door to see if anyone is there, then opened it. He was shocked by the sight.
"These are not survivors!" Athrun shouted, "They are mobile suits!"
Chapter 3.1: Gundam
"Are they?" Kira said, "Are they Gundams?"
"Like the ones in the comic?" Lacus said.
Excel began to ponder up some world domination schemes.
"They must have some outdated Operating Systems on these," Kira said.
"We can start updating them now," Athrun said, then turned to KOS- MOS, "KOS-MOS, do you know how to rewrite the OS systems in those mobile suits?"
"I think so," KOS-MOS said.
"Alright," Athrun said.
"You know, Kira programmed Haro to rewrite programs too," Lacus said.
"Huh?" Athrun said.
"Well.I created an OS updater into Haro's mainframe," Kira said, "It should prove useful."
"So that's why Lacus offered Haro to update KOS-MOS," Athrun said.
Lacus nodded.
"Well, each one of you grab a Gundam and start updating it!" Athrun ordered, "And Excel, can you hack into the computer mainframe and stop this colony from going into the sun?"
"You mean the star?" Excel said.
"A SUN is a STAR!" Athrun said.
"Fine, fine, I can do it," Excel said.
"Good," Athrun said.
Excel left the room.
"So, which mobile suit should we start on?" Kira wondered.
"I'm thinking I should start on this red-magenta one," Athrun said.
"Looking up on the book, this is Justice Gundam," Lacus said.
"Justice," Athrun said.
"And Kira," Lacus said.
"Yeah?" Kira said.
"It says your Gundam is the Freedom Gundam," Lacus said.
"I thought it was the Strike Gundam," Kira said.
"Yeah, until it was destroyed in an explosion along with Aegis Gundam," Lacus said.
"Oh." Kira thought.
Athrun opened up the cockpit hatch on Justice Gundam and began to rewrite the system. Kira did the same with Freedom Gundam.
"Haro, let's go fix this black Gundam," Lacus said, "Raider Gundam, it can change into a bird."
"Haro!"
"What should I do, Athrun?" KOS-MOS asked.
"Well.Lacus!" Athrun said.
"Huh?" Lacus said.
"What kind of Gundam would be best for KOS-MOS?" Athrun requested.
"Umm.the ??(Nu) Gundam!" Lacus said.
"Nu Gundam?" Athrun said.
"KOS-MOS was created as a multi-function Realian, right?" Lacus said, "Then she must have some type of Newtype powers."
"Okay, Lacus," Athrun said, "And when we get back, create a Gundams For Dummies guide for me, okay?"
"Sure," Lacus said.
KOS-MOS got into the Nu Gundam, the sliver mobile suit that has multiple "binders" used by Amuro Ray. She analyzed the system first, then she began to rewrite the code. Lacus entered the Raider Gundam and told Haro to connect himself to the system, and began to rewrite the system.
Meanwhile, Excel entered the bridge and saw on the screen that the colony will enter the sun's atmosphere in two days. Seeing that she has a lot of time, she got overconfident and began pushing some buttons and thought she can set a course to get it away from the sun. But instead, the screen says the collusion course to the sun has sped up to six hours. She panicked, and found a button displaying "VOICE ACTIVATION." She slammed on the button.
"Input command," Computer said.
"Get the fucking colony away from the sun!" Excel shouted.
"Confirming," Computer said.
"Whew," Excel said with relief.
"Did you feel that?" Kira said.
"Seems like Excel did it," Athrun said.
"Did what? Did she veer the colony away from the sun?" KOS-MOS asked.
"I hope so, or we'll die sooner then we think," Athrun said.
"I did it!" Excel said, "I did it!"
"Thank god," Athrun said.
"You sound relieved, Athrun," KOS-MOS said.
"I am," Athrun said.
He finished up the reconfiguration on the Justice, then moved over to the Aegis Gundam. Kira finished up the Freedom then moved onto the Strike Gundam. Lacus finished up the Raider Gundam's OS and walked up to Excel.
"Haro Haro."
"So," Lacus said.
"So you will use these things, huh?" Excel said.
"To save the world, yeah," Lacus said.
"Got any them with big ass guns?" Excel said.
"Umm." Lacus said as she flipped through her Anime for Dummies, "There are Heavyarms, Heavyarms Kai, Leopard, Leopard-D, Full Armored ZZ Gundam, and Buster Gundam."
"Whoa, what to chose, what to chose." Excel said.
"I'm going to update the ZZ Gundam," Lacus said.
"Ahh." Excel said, about to request the Buster Gundam.
Lacus walked down the hangar and started to work on the ZZ Gundam when she entered the cockpit.
Back on the Archangel, Cagalli, Urd, Belldandy, Skuld, and Hyatt are playing with their MiniComs (call it a very small laptop), and are connected to a multiplayer online game server. Where are they playing the game? They are sitting together in a circle on the bridge!
"This multiplayer game is getting boring," Cagalli said.
"Come on, we are also to the dungeon," Skuld said.
"It's been ages after the first Dungeons and Dragons game came out, and see how it has evolved," Urd said.
Hyatt collapsed.
"Not again," Cagalli said.
"That's the fifth time now," Belldandy said.
"I've leveled up my thief," Urd said.
"Where did you go?" Cagalli asked.
"To the Lava Mountains to the north of where you are," Urd said.
"Okay," Cagalli said.
"When will Athrun call?" Skuld wondered.
Hyatt got back up and continued playing the game.
"Welcome back," Cagalli said.
"Zala to Archangel," Athrun called.
Urd got up to the communications console and answered, "Archangel here."
"We found the member," Athrun said, "Her name is KOS-MOS."
"KOS-MOS," Urd said.
"Yeah, and we found something else," Athrun said.
"What is it?" Urd said.
"We found mobile suit weapons," Athrun said, "There are tons of them. The majority of them are what Lacus calls the Zaku II."
"Okay," Urd said.
"Hey, we also noticed a shift in the colony's velocity, did something happened?" Cagalli wondered.
"Yeah, Excel has help us, for once, in veering the colony's course away from the sun," Athrun said.
"Excellent, when will you be back?" Urd wondered.
"Maybe a day's worth," Athrun said, "We are trying to reconfigure the operating systems of the mobile suits, and we've completed four mobile suits by far. They are Justice, Freedom, Raider, and Nu."
"Okay, call us later," Cagalli said.
"Yeah, later," Athrun said.
The connection was severed.
"So, Gundams?" Skuld said.
"It seem so," Urd said.
Chapter 3.2: Emotional Burst
Several hours later, Athrun slept in the cockpit of the Victory Gundam, Lacus slept on the hard metal ground with Haro, Kira slept in one of the Zaku II, Excel slept in the cockpit of the Heavyarms, and KOS-MOS analyzed the Turn-A Gundam and tries to determine its operating system.
"This is impossible," KOS-MOS said, "This mobile suit is impossible. And what am I experiencing?"
Athrun woke up and started looking around, he then saw KOS-MOS getting angry and started pounding on the console.
"Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!" Athrun said as he quickly jumped off the cockpit and ran to the Turn-A, "What's going on?!"
"This OS! It's impossible!" KOS-MOS complained.
"Impossible?" Athrun said.
KOS-MOS lowered the cockpit, and has a pounding feeling on her head, "What is this feeling?"
"Huh?" Athrun said.
"I am just so." KOS-MOS said, then took off her helmet and threw it on the ground, "This Gundam is just impossible!"
"Whoa, take it easy," Athrun said placing his hand on her shoulders.
"I thought I am a supercomputer," KOS-MOS said, "I am suppose to be the best! I am supposed to be able to fix everything! I am."
Athrun smacked her across her face, "Everyone has a flaw, and how can you consider yourself perfect if perfection does not exist?"
"I." KOS-MOS said and begins to cry, "I think.my emotion grid is fluctuating!"
"No, no," Athrun said, "It's running fine."
He hugs her, and pats her on the back.
A few hours later, Belldandy went into Cagalli's dorm. Cagalli seems to be worried about Athrun.
"What's the matter, Cagalli?" Belldandy asked.
"I'm worried about Athrun," Cagalli said, "He's out there in an abandoned colony with nothing. The air is thin there too."
"I know," Belldandy said, "Why not give him a call."
"A call? Wouldn't that disrupt his mission?" Cagalli wondered.
"Hey, you are boyfriend/girlfriend with him, right?" Belldandy said, "Then give him a call if you are worried."
Cagalli called up Athrun through a video linkup and he answered with KOS-MOS wrapped her arms around him.
"Athrun!" Cagalli said.
"Is that your girlfriend?" KOS-MOS asked.
"She is," Athrun said, "Cagalli, what's going on?"
"What in the hell?!" Cagalli shouted.
"Hey, this is a misunderstanding!" Athrun refuted.
"Fuckin' playboy!" Cagalli shouted.
"Hey, KOS-MOS saved my life," Athrun said.
"How?" Cagalli said, waiting for the dumbest answer possible.
"Kira designated me as her master," Athrun said.
"Hey, who are you talking to?" Lacus wondered and peeked in.
"Lacus," Cagalli said.
"Hello~" Lacus said, "Did you know Kira made Athrun KOS-MOS's new master? Isn't that cool?"
"Umm." Cagalli said blushing.
"Hello.Cagalli," KOS-MOS said, "I'm KOS-MOS."
"Umm." Cagalli said, "So, KOS-MOS, what are you?"
"I am a Realian created to fight the Genois," KOS-MOS said.
"Genois is an evil alien race from her universe, but in the one she came from, she was created about two days before the Genois was officially wiped out," Athrun said, "So she is very new to the world like a little child."
"Well, bring her back safely, now I'm really interested in meeting her," Cagalli said, "And KOS-MOS, protect Athrun with your life."
"Acknowledged," KOS-MOS said.
The connection was severed.
"So, Cagalli was just worried," Athrun said, "Well, we have to get this finished, KOS-MOS. And Lacus, can you have Haro see if he can rewrite Turn-A's OS."
"Haro nai!"
"He said the machine is foreign to him," Lacus said.
"Foreign?" Athrun said and took a look at Turn-A's programming, "Every thing is written in a lost language!"
"So." KOS-MOS said.
"Leave the Turn-A alone," Athrun said.
"Now what?" Lacus wondered, "There are a whole bunch of other mobile suits to update."
"Leave the others alone also," Athrun said, "All the ones we have updated will be our primary units."
"Meaning." Lacus said.
"Haro?"
"If we are going to get in a space battle, we will use only the ones we have updated," Athrun said.
"WARNING!"
"Huh?" Athrun said.
Urd appeared on Athrun's vid-phone, luckily he still has it in his hands.
"Athrun!" Urd said, "There are ten Chaos units coming your way!"
"Damn," Athrun said, "Then prepare for battle. Everyone, scramble! Use only the updated mobile suits!"
Kira jumped into Freedom Gundam, Athrun quickly rushed down into the Justice, Excel just closed the cockpit on the Heavyarms Kai, Lacus entered the Raider Gundam, and KOS-MOS look the Nu Gundam.
"Now what?" Excel said, "Should we blast a hole?" "Hell no!" Athrun said, "We are going to use the linear catapult to launch ourselves into space. And since your Gundam, Excel, has limited thrust, you'll have a hard time in battle."
"Athrun," Lacus said, "I read that the Raider Gundam's secondary function is to transform into a bird in order to carry the Calamity Gundam. The same might go for the Heavyarms."
"Well, try it out then, you two launch first," Athrun ordered.
"Right," Lacus said.
The Raider stepped on the catapult first and was launched out to space, the Heavyarms Kai followed next.
"Hey!" Excel said.
"Transform, Haro," Lacus said.
The Raider transformed into a bird-like form and Heavyarms landed on top, successful connection. And also, Haro is connected to the Raider's computer, so Lacus can just order it around.
"How, fly towards those.red-black things," Lacus said.
"Are you crazy?!" Excel shouted.
"Hey! You have a bunch of missiles, rockets, and big guns!" Lacus shouted.
"I do?" Excel said as she scanned through the computer and displayed how much ammo she has left. The numbers are rather large.
"Justice, launch!" Athrun shouted and was launched out into space, unlike Excel's mobile suit, his model was meant for space battles, along with Kira and KOS-MOS's, which were launched out afterwards.
"What should I do, Athrun?" KOS-MOS asked.
"For one things, be more independent," Athrun said.
"Huh?" KOS-MOS said.
"We'll get to that later, but first, we have the destroy those Chaos Units, and try to use all the features in your mobile suit," Athrun said.
Excel started blaring her two double barrel machine guns and was able to take down one of the Chaos Units.
"Jackpot!" Excel shouted with confidence.
"But we have nine more to go," Lacus said, "Haro has preformed SCAN on one of the units and their HP is 5,000 each! HaHA."
"Fuck," Excel said.
"KOS-MOS, there are two of them coming at you, three o' clock!" Kira shouted.
KOS-MOS activated the binders and they shot out causing three-hit damage on each of them. She then took out a beam saber and slashed through the two.
"Excellent work," Athrun said.
KOS-MOS felt proud.
"There are three of them in front of me, they're mine," Kira said.
"Got it," Athrun said.
Kira concentrated but then something hit him psychologically.
"Kira?" Athrun said.
Kira has gone berserk, then he violently and mercilessly slashed through the three Chaos Units. It looked more like murder rather then a fair match. He then returned to normal.
"Kira?" Athrun said.
"Does this mean I should have chosen the Freedom?" Excel wondered.
"Six down, four to go," Lacus said.
"I don't know," Kira said, "First, I saw a seed shatter in front of my eyes, then I had that rage."
"Now I think that is true now, we too have Coordinator abilities, even though we are not," Athrun said, "But no matter, we have destroy these Chaos Units! KOS-MOS! Follow me!"
"Understood," KOS-MOS said.
Athrun, understanding the functions of his mobile suit, launches his jetpack towards the remaining Chaos Unit and caused only minimal damage. Luckily, the jetpack swung back like a boomerang, causing additional damage before reattaching back to the Justice. KOS-MOS then discovered the Chaos Units that were hit got caught off guard; so she uses the chance to release all her binders to finish them off. Athrun was also caught off guard when the binders came from behind him. It did destroy the four remaining units that Athrun weaken. But then HE was caught off guard by the returning binders. So he found out that Nu Gundam was right behind him.
"Umm.did you have to be in this close?" Athrun said.
"You did say I should follow you," KOS-MOS said.
"Heh," Athrun said, "The battle is over, let's head back to the Archangel with these units."
KOS-MOS felt a funny feeling in her stomach.
"Athrun, what is this feeling?" KOS-MOS wondered.
"Umm.well we all have not eaten in a day," Athrun said, "And KOS-MOS, I'll tell you about it when we get back."
"Damn I'm hungry, now where is my emergency food source?" Excel said.
Athrun entered the mess hall and Cagalli ran to him.
"I'm back," Athrun said.
"I'm glad you're safe," Cagalli said.
Excel entered the mess hall afterwards, and went up to Belldandy, who seems to be the cook.
"Gimme everything you have," Excel said.
Belldandy just toss her a bucket of potato skins.
"Cagalli, this is KOS-MOS," Athrun said.
"Hmm.first we have to do something about her clothing," Cagalli said.
"Huh?" KOS-MOS said.
"For one thing, who walks around wearing metal?" Cagalli said, "Come!"
"Huh?" KOS-MOS said.
Cagalli grabbed her by the hand and dragged her out.
Chapter 3.3: KOS-MOS changed
About a half an hour later, Cagalli returned to the mess hall.
"Hey, Athrun," Cagalli said.
"What?" Athrun said .
KOS-MOS entered the room, dressed up in a pretty black half-top/aqua blouse/aqua skirt combo.
"What do you think?" Cagalli said.
KOS-MOS give out a small smile.
"Go up to her," Kira said and pushed Athrun off his chair.
Cagalli and KOS-MOS laughed.
"Seems like her emotion grid is working right," Athrun said.
After we return to back to Honolulu, let's go take a break before continuing on, okay? KOS-MOS, you may tag along with me if you feel comfortable with a couple of guys. And can someone do something about Excel?! Next time on Anime Assaulters:
Episode Four: The Night Out
"Survivors?" Athrun said.
"That's what Haro is saying," Lacus said, "He did an X-ray scan and saw something that looked like people."
"Well, let's go! Haro, lead the way!" Athrun said.
"Haro!"
Haro bounced away, leading them to a closed door. Athrun listened in on the door to see if anyone is there, then opened it. He was shocked by the sight.
"These are not survivors!" Athrun shouted, "They are mobile suits!"
Chapter 3.1: Gundam
"Are they?" Kira said, "Are they Gundams?"
"Like the ones in the comic?" Lacus said.
Excel began to ponder up some world domination schemes.
"They must have some outdated Operating Systems on these," Kira said.
"We can start updating them now," Athrun said, then turned to KOS- MOS, "KOS-MOS, do you know how to rewrite the OS systems in those mobile suits?"
"I think so," KOS-MOS said.
"Alright," Athrun said.
"You know, Kira programmed Haro to rewrite programs too," Lacus said.
"Huh?" Athrun said.
"Well.I created an OS updater into Haro's mainframe," Kira said, "It should prove useful."
"So that's why Lacus offered Haro to update KOS-MOS," Athrun said.
Lacus nodded.
"Well, each one of you grab a Gundam and start updating it!" Athrun ordered, "And Excel, can you hack into the computer mainframe and stop this colony from going into the sun?"
"You mean the star?" Excel said.
"A SUN is a STAR!" Athrun said.
"Fine, fine, I can do it," Excel said.
"Good," Athrun said.
Excel left the room.
"So, which mobile suit should we start on?" Kira wondered.
"I'm thinking I should start on this red-magenta one," Athrun said.
"Looking up on the book, this is Justice Gundam," Lacus said.
"Justice," Athrun said.
"And Kira," Lacus said.
"Yeah?" Kira said.
"It says your Gundam is the Freedom Gundam," Lacus said.
"I thought it was the Strike Gundam," Kira said.
"Yeah, until it was destroyed in an explosion along with Aegis Gundam," Lacus said.
"Oh." Kira thought.
Athrun opened up the cockpit hatch on Justice Gundam and began to rewrite the system. Kira did the same with Freedom Gundam.
"Haro, let's go fix this black Gundam," Lacus said, "Raider Gundam, it can change into a bird."
"Haro!"
"What should I do, Athrun?" KOS-MOS asked.
"Well.Lacus!" Athrun said.
"Huh?" Lacus said.
"What kind of Gundam would be best for KOS-MOS?" Athrun requested.
"Umm.the ??(Nu) Gundam!" Lacus said.
"Nu Gundam?" Athrun said.
"KOS-MOS was created as a multi-function Realian, right?" Lacus said, "Then she must have some type of Newtype powers."
"Okay, Lacus," Athrun said, "And when we get back, create a Gundams For Dummies guide for me, okay?"

KOS-MOS got into the Nu Gundam, the sliver mobile suit that has multiple "binders" used by Amuro Ray. She analyzed the system first, then she began to rewrite the code. Lacus entered the Raider Gundam and told Haro to connect himself to the system, and began to rewrite the system.

"Did you feel that?" Kira said.
"Seems like Excel did it," Athrun said.
"Did what? Did she veer the colony away from the sun?" KOS-MOS asked.
"I hope so, or we'll die sooner then we think," Athrun said.
"I did it!" Excel said, "I did it!"
"Thank god," Athrun said.
"You sound relieved, Athrun," KOS-MOS said.
"I am," Athrun said.
He finished up the reconfiguration on the Justice, then moved over to the Aegis Gundam. Kira finished up the Freedom then moved onto the Strike Gundam. Lacus finished up the Raider Gundam's OS and walked up to Excel.
"Haro Haro."
"So," Lacus said.
"So you will use these things, huh?" Excel said.
"To save the world, yeah," Lacus said.
"Got any them with big ass guns?" Excel said.
"Umm." Lacus said as she flipped through her Anime for Dummies, "There are Heavyarms, Heavyarms Kai, Leopard, Leopard-D, Full Armored ZZ Gundam, and Buster Gundam."
"Whoa, what to chose, what to chose." Excel said.
"I'm going to update the ZZ Gundam," Lacus said.
"Ahh." Excel said, about to request the Buster Gundam.
Lacus walked down the hangar and started to work on the ZZ Gundam when she entered the cockpit.
Back on the Archangel, Cagalli, Urd, Belldandy, Skuld, and Hyatt are playing with their MiniComs (call it a very small laptop), and are connected to a multiplayer online game server. Where are they playing the game? They are sitting together in a circle on the bridge!
"This multiplayer game is getting boring," Cagalli said.

The Raider transformed into a bird-like form and Heavyarms landed on top, successful connection. And also, Haro is connected to the Raider's computer, so Lacus can just order it around.
"How, fly towards those.red-black things," Lacus said.
"Are you crazy?!" Excel shouted.
"Hey! You have a bunch of missiles, rockets, and big guns!" Lacus shouted.
"I do?" Excel said as she scanned through the computer and displayed how much ammo she has left. The numbers are rather large.
"Justice, launch!" Athrun shouted and was launched out into space, unlike Excel's mobile suit, his model was meant for space battles, along with Kira and KOS-MOS's, which were launched out afterwards.
"What should I do, Athrun?" KOS-MOS asked.
"For one things, be more independent," Athrun said.
"Huh?" KOS-MOS said.
"We'll get to that later, but first, we have the destroy those Chaos Units, and try to use all the features in your mobile suit," Athrun said.
Excel started blaring her two double barrel machine guns and was able to take down one of the Chaos Units.
"Jackpot!" Excel shouted with confidence.
"But we have nine more to go," Lacus said, "Haro has preformed SCAN on one of the units and their HP is 5,000 each! HaHA."
"Fuck," Excel said.
"KOS-MOS, there are two of them coming at you, three o' clock!" Kira shouted.
KOS-MOS activated the binders and they shot out causing three-hit damage on each of them. She then took out a beam saber and slashed through the two.
"Excellent work," Athrun said.
KOS-MOS felt proud.
"There are three of them in front of me, they're mine," Kira said.
"Got it," Athrun said.
Kira concentrated but then something hit him psychologically.
"Kira?" Athrun said.
Kira has gone berserk, then he violently and mercilessly slashed through the three Chaos Units. It looked more like murder rather then a fair match. He then returned to normal.
"Kira?" Athrun said.
"Does this mean I should have chosen the Freedom?" Excel wondered.
"Six down, four to go," Lacus said.
"I don't know," Kira said, "First, I saw a seed shatter in front of my eyes, then I had that rage."
"Now I think that is true now, we too have Coordinator abilities, even though we are not," Athrun said, "But no matter, we have destroy these Chaos Units! KOS-MOS! Follow me!"
"Understood," KOS-MOS said.
Athrun, understanding the functions of his mobile suit, launches his jetpack towards the remaining Chaos Unit and caused only minimal damage. Luckily, the jetpack swung back like a boomerang, causing additional damage before reattaching back to the Justice. KOS-MOS then discovered the Chaos Units that were hit got caught off guard; so she uses the chance to release all her binders to finish them off. Athrun was also caught off guard when the binders came from behind him. It did destroy the four remaining units that Athrun weaken. But then HE was caught off guard by the returning binders. So he found out that Nu Gundam was right behind him.
"Umm.did you have to be in this close?" Athrun said.
"You did say I should follow you," KOS-MOS said.
"Heh," Athrun said, "The battle is over, let's head back to the Archangel with these units."
KOS-MOS felt a funny feeling in her stomach.
"Athrun, what is this feeling?" KOS-MOS wondered.
"Umm.well we all have not eaten in a day," Athrun said, "And KOS-MOS, I'll tell you about it when we get back."
"Damn I'm hungry, now where is my emergency food source?" Excel said.
Athrun entered the mess hall and Cagalli ran to him.
"I'm back," Athrun said.
"I'm glad you're safe," Cagalli said.
Excel entered the mess hall afterwards, and went up to Belldandy, who seems to be the cook.
"Gimme everything you have," Excel said.
Belldandy just toss her a bucket of potato skins.
"Cagalli, this is KOS-MOS," Athrun said.
"Hmm.first we have to do something about her clothing," Cagalli said.
"Huh?" KOS-MOS said.
"For one thing, who walks around wearing metal?" Cagalli said, "Come!"
"Huh?" KOS-MOS said.
Cagalli grabbed her by the hand and dragged her out.
Chapter 3.3: KOS-MOS changed
About a half an hour later, Cagalli returned to the mess hall.
"Hey, Athrun," Cagalli said.
"What?" Athrun said .
KOS-MOS entered the room, dressed up in a pretty black half-top/aqua blouse/aqua skirt combo.
"What do you think?" Cagalli said.
KOS-MOS give out a small smile.
"Go up to her," Kira said and pushed Athrun off his chair.
Cagalli and KOS-MOS laughed.
"Seems like her emotion grid is working right," Athrun said.
After we return to back to Honolulu, let's go take a break before continuing on, okay? KOS-MOS, you may tag along with me if you feel comfortable with a couple of guys. And can someone do something about Excel?! Next time on Anime Assaulters:
