Before I start, me and my friend did some lineart for Yuu's Miracle Gundam
as well as stats:
Two Men, One Force Chapter 7: Revival of the Blue Destiny
The Nuremburg and the Lionheart exchanged and dodged each other's fire evenly. Sanders simultaneously fired his automatic shotguns and overhead cannons. Yazan dashed to the right avoiding the attack and launched a volley of beams of his own. The Nuremburg spun out of the way. The Lionheart fired the rest of its missiles in its shoulder cannon while the Nuremburg attempted to scurry out of danger.
Sanders pulled back and pressed hard on the triggers for his shotguns. "Let's see how good you really are!"
Yazan swiftly transformed into MA mode and flew up, escaping the attack. He switched back into MS mode and aimed his rifles. The Nuremburg fired its overhead cannon, striking the compact beam rifle in the Lionheart's left hand.
"Son of a bitch . . ."
"This is it!"
The Nuremburg released all 4 of its missile pods, releasing a legion of smaller missiles. Yazan's eyes widened in surprise. The missiles collided against a target and erupted into a gigantic explosion.
"That's what you get!"
Sanders surveyed the damage, and soon realized that there were no mechanical parts.
"He left decoys . . . ?"
The Lionheart in MA mode fired its beam cannons leaving Sanders with little time to dodge. The beams singed the back of his legs.
"That was too close . . ."
The Lionheart transformed back into MS mode and released its heat katana. The Nuremburg pulled its heat swallow (double sided blade) off of its back and ignited it with heat energy. The two suits stood still for a second. Then, the Nuremburg shot forward and swung its heat swallow with Yazan defending. The two suits swung and defended with their melee weapons at close range with amazing speed. They were both the complete Mobile Suit swordsmen. Masters of the style. The quick striking, defending, and ability to anticipate the other's next move exemplified the years of experience that they had.
The two struck each other with a magnificent force and pressed against each other. Sanders was in shock. "I didn't know Londo Bell would have such a veteran . . ."
"This guy . . . he's too much . . ."
The suits backed away from each other. Yazan and Sanders both took deep breaths, but stayed focused. The fighting would continue very soon.
The black-clad suits of the Black Dream had eliminated a good amount of Jegans, but only two of them had been shot down.
"Nimbus . . . how can they all be Nimbus?!"
The Miracle Gundam watched as the suits retreated after doing a good amount of damage. It was obvious that this was a warning sign. Yuu struck his control console.
"How the hell did they get EXAM?! We destroyed them all!"
The Nuremburg went into a battle-ready stance. Sanders was ready to fight. "Ready to go?"
"Sanders!" screamed a female voice from his speaker.
"What's wrong?"
"Retreat back. We're going to send Johnny Ridden and the Regalus out. Remember, this battle was meant to be a warning sign to Londo Bell."
"Dammit . . . alright, I'm returning to the Titanic." He looked at the Lionheart. "I'll see you later."
The Nuremburg feinted into looking like it was going to attack and the Lionheart swung its heat katana but hit nothing but air. Sanders swiftly retreated back to the Titanic, which was backing away.
"Yeah, run away!" Yazan put away the heat katana. He returned and met with the other suits around the Ra Cailum. Yuu contacted him.
"The Ra Sierra's taken some heavy damage. It's going to take some time to prepare."
"Did you see that guy I was fighting?!"
"No . . ."
"It was the same one you fought, except a different color. This guy was no joke. He's a fighter. This war looks like it can be fun . . ."
"Something's coming!" Jill screamed.
"What is it?" Yuu asked.
"One Mobile Suit. Coming in fast!"
The Jegans, Lionheart, and Miracle Gundam loaded their weapons and waited. A sudden blur past them by and crashed into a Jegan which was quickly dispatched of. The blur stopped and revealed itself as a crimson red and blue Mobile Suit.
"What the hell is that?" Yuu screamed.
Yazan aimed his last compact beam rifle. "Whatever it is, it's gonna' kick your ass if you're too busy whining!"
Johnny Ridden stared at his enemies all ready to take him apart. But he wasn't ready to let them happen. "SIEG ZEON!" he screamed at the top of his lungs. The Regalus became a blur once again. All of Londo Bell's Mobile Suits fired a frenzy of attacks. Not one hit the Regalus.
Yuu threw away his twin beam rifle and pulled out his compact machinegun. "EXAM . . . only EXAM is capable of this!"
Jegans went up in flames. No one was able to hit the enemy. The Regalus stopped for a second and became targeted, but it flew out of the way and released a volley of rockets from its overhead cannons.
"Argh! That's it!" Yuu screamed.
"Kid, get back!"
The Miracle dashed forward towards the Regalus with its machine gun and beam saber and hacked away. The Regalus fought back with its beam saber. They began clashing back and forth with their sabers, but the Regalus was too fast.
"Major Ridden!"
"Yes, Rear Admiral Kycilia?"
"Pull back, we're done here."
"Have the Jinn Dogas planted the microwave mines on the colonies?"
"Yes, you covered their efforts well. Please return."
Nanai turned her screen off and turned around, where Sanders was standing.
"Microwave mines?"
"Yes, microwave mines."
"I didn't here you tell the Admiral about that."
"It's a surprise, Mr. Sanders. The fun is just beginning."
The Regalus retreated, leaving Yuu in a Miracle Gundam left in bad shape.
"EXAM . . . Marion . . ."
The Ra Cailum was now docked inside Side 3's 24 Bunch. Bright Noa, Yuu Kajima, Yazan Gable, Jill Kerrigan, Philip Hughes, and various other members of Londo Bell sat around on the upper level of the bridge.
"Are you sure that was it?" Philip asked.
"I'm sure," Yuu responded. "Only EXAM is capable of that. Those attacks coming from those black Mobile Suits . . . it felt so much like I was fighting Nimbus again . . ."
Bright scratched his head. "What are the capabilities of this EXAM?"
"Chaos" Yuu answered. "But . . . the only way to beat EXAM is to use EXAM. There's no way we're beating anyone without having an EXAM unit of our own."
"I've never heard of this weapon . . . but, maybe Anaheim has an answer?"
"Or something just as powerful. I need to go back to the moon. The trip will take about a day."
"Permission granted. Take Yazan, the Miracle Gundam, and the Lionheart with you. If anything, the Black Dream got all of this equipment from Anaheim."
"But sir, you'll be defenseless."
"We don't plan on leaving the colony. Besides, we need time to repair the Ra Sierra and the communications. Try to get in touch with the Earth Federation and tell them about our status."
"Yes, sir."
The Titanic and its accompanying ships were now all together deep out in space.
"I don't agree with you on this one, Major Nanai."
"It's just like blowing up a colony, Admiral."
"I didn't agree much with that either!" Admiral Constatine spat. "But . . . microwave bombs? You plan on cooking these people into a bloody mess?!"
". . . Why not."
"Why did you have them planted without telling me."
"Because I knew you'd disagree."
"What do you plan to do with them?"
"We have Londo Bell on the run. They're probably hiding in a colony. We can use the mines as a negotiating weapon."
"Negotiating weapon?"
"Yes, we set one off and fry all the people in a colony and say that we'll set more off unless they don't leave the colony."
"I don't agree with this move, Ms. Nanai . . ."
"Come on, what's your problem? We're just killing a few million people . . . for the good of justice, of course."
"Kintaro, forgive me . . ."
"You're asking a dead guy for forgiveness?"
"He wouldn't want us to turn back to genocide!"
"You did for the Titans!"
"We did that to attempt to redeem ourselves!"
"Well, you're doing this to redeem yourselves, too. At least you'll have your pride back when you do this."
The Admiral sighed and turned away. "Give me some time to think about this."
"Alright. Just be in ready by the time I'm ready to flick the switch on the mines."
"You . . ."
Nanai leaves the room, leaving behind confused Admiral Constatine.
Meanwhile, Sanders entered the hospital area where Johnny Ridden was. He sat down next to him. Ridden was frolicking around by himself.
"You're a complete psycho . . ."
"What was that?"
"Who are you?" Sanders asked in a very innocent voice.
"I am Major Johnny Ridden of Neo Zeon!"
"Right . . ."
"You must be Major Sanders. It's an honor to meet you."
"Yeah, I guess . . ."
"What are you here for, Major?"
"Nothing, nothing . . . I was just bored . . . just tell me more about Zeon . . ."
"We re dedicated to rebuilding the Principality of Zeon with Kycilia Zabi as our leader!"
"Kycilia Zabi?"
"Yes, our leader."
Sanders sat back and thought for a second. He began to catch on why Nanai changed her hair color.
"So . . . you are good friends with this Kycilia Zabi?"
"I would like to think that I am."
"I saw you pilot that Mobile Suit . . . are in any condition to be piloting at all?"
"Truthfully, no. I can't think when I'm in a Mobile Suit or concentrate . . . but they built in this machine called EXAM. It helps me put my skills to the work and helps me stay in control . . . I sometimes go . . . go . . ."
Suddenly, he begins babbling various words and starts screaming. Doctors and nurses rush into the room and give him an injection. Sanders makes his way out of the room.
"That guy . . . he's a complete nutcase . . ."
Around 12 hours have passed. A small ship docks at Von Braun. Yuu and Yazan meet up with October.
"Captain Kajima and Captain Gable, what brings you here?"
Yuu stepped forward. "We want to know if you supplied the Black Dream with any weapons."
"Of course we did."
"Why didn't you tell us?!"
"You never asked."
"That's not a good answer."
"Listen, we only take care of the contracting here. None of that is our fault."
"Liars. You just want to run your monopoly up here on the moon, safe from the battlefield."
"Well, I wouldn't call what went on between Londo Bell and the Black Dream above here "safe from the battlefield".
Yuu sighs. "You should at least be good enough to tell us what the hell they were building."
"Aside from the new Geara Dogas, they made an advanced model. All black. They're called Jinn Dogas. They made quite a few of them."
"Dammit . . ."
"Yep. And they also ordered a whole lot of other equipment. They didn't say what they were going to do with it, but I took a look at their blue prints while they were looking away and made some copies."
"Made some copies?"
"It's going to cost you, though."
"Cost us?!"
"You've got to get your government to pay for all the damages that we took during that battle."
"You idiot! There's a war a going on!"
"And war is hard business."
"Argh . . . we'll see what we can do . . ."
"I suppose I can give you a glimpse of these copies . . . now, where did I store them?" October searched through a bunch of papers. "Ah, here it is." He hands them to Yuu and Yazan.
"The Regalus and the Nuremburg?"
"Yeah. Pretty good I might add."
"Alright, I've got one more question."
"And that is?"
"Did you supply them with EXAM?"
"EXAM . . . nope. Never even heard of it."
"Liar!"
"Listen, if I knew what you were talking about, I'd tell you."
"He talking about Project Blue," a man said, walking up to them. Yuu turned to this man, immediately recognizing him.
"Captain Alf Chamra?"
"It's just Dr. Alf Charma, now. It's been awhile, Yuu Kajima."
October looked at the two. "You two know each other?"
Chamra smiled. "This is core of Project Blue. The man who harnessed EXAM and brought it to its limits."
October looked over at Yuu. "Really . . ."
"I don't have much time!" Yuu exclaimed. "Those Jinn Dogas and that Regalus is equipped with EXAM. We can't beat them without having an EXAM of our own."
October and Dr. Chamra looked at each other and then back at Yuu. "Fine. But, we're only letting one go."
". . . Good enough." Yuu answered. "I brought the Miracle Gundam with me. I want EXAM installed."
"Let's go take a look at it then, shall we?"
On the Titanic, Sanders and Nanai stayed on the bridge, watching Mobile Suits return to the ship, most notably, watching the Jinn Dogas.
"So let me get this straight. Those Jinn Doga pilots, they're all clones?" Sanders asked.
"I thought we went through this before."
"Go through it again. I wasn't exactly paying too much attention the first time around."
Nanai sighed with a long smile on her face. "Yes. The Jinn Doga pilots are clones. We decided that the best pilots that could handle EXAM were the ones who've already mastered it. A man, names Nimbus Schatzen, died in battle a long time ago in an EXAM unit. We were lucky enough to find a burnt finger. Badly burnt, but it fit our purpose."
"And through that you started making these clones of this dead Nimbus guy?"
"Yes."
"But . . . how do you get them to grow so fast?
"The power of science," Nanai replied "Advanced growth formulas and test tubes let us turn an infant to a man in less than a year. Amazing, isn't it?"
Sanders shook his head and walked away.
"What? What?" Nanai asked. "What's wrong?"
"Nothing that someone who isn't a real soldier can understand."
October, Yuu, Yazan, and Dr. Chamra went deep into Anaheim and went to the lowest floor and entered an area that needed code clearance.
"This is the forbidden area. Only us with code clearance can get in here."
They walked in and looked around. It was a museum of things."
"The RX-78-2 Gundam?"
"A complete replica," said October. "It's a classic. Some of us look at it when we need inspiration.
They looked around at various machines. One caught Yazan's eye and he dashed over to it as fast he could and stared at it in wonder and awe.
"The Zeta Gundam?!"
"Our finest creation. It was wrecked during the conflict with Neo Zeon, but we found it wrecked and fully restored it. We can't use it though . . . if someone like the first pilot rose again, who knows what damage this thing can do in the wrong hands . . ."
The continued down the hall."
"Here it is!" Chamra shouted.
There stood GM Blue Destiny Unit 1, Gundam Blue Destiny Unit 2, and Gundam Blue Destiny Unit 3.
Yuu merely stared at them. Yazan spat at them, not as eager as his partner.
Dr. Chamra fixed his glasses and glanced over at Yuu. "We'll need some time. About two hours to revive the spirit of Blue Destiny."
"Doctor . . . can you promise me something?"
"What is it?"
"That after this, we can destroy all the Blue Destinies. I . . . I kind of promised someone that it would be done . . ."
"I can't promise anything. People like October can be assholes."
"Hey!"
"Shut up, October. You're not a part of this conversation." He turned his attention back to Yuu. "We'll debate over your request."
Yuu stared at the three Blue Destiny suits once again. It was time to revive the spirit that has been long dead.
"Marion . . ."
