Chapter 9: Dark Alliance
"What?" Audric yells as he throws his briefcase across the room. "You mean to tell me the Gundams are trying to foil our plans all the way over HERE!"
"Yes, we sent a scout out on normal patrol with his Taurus, who reported that a few locals were dangerously close to the base and he was ordered to remove them," an informant debriefs. "Shortly thereafter, the scout began to execute the order and Gundam Zero-Three arrived on the scene."
Audric's expression quickly went from angry to furious, as he knew the outcome of this fight before it even started.
"Zero-Three proceeded to ruthlessly dispatch the scout," the informant continued as the execution played on a video screen behind him. "The area this battle took place is no more than a mile and a half outside the main base. It will only be a matter of time before they find this location, if they are looking as they appeared to be."
Audric slams his fists down on the desk hard. "We have worked for two hard years rushing through this project. We created the science of dimension jumping and have the ability of constructing an underground base in the course of a week. And you mean to tell me two mobile suits are going to ruin everything!"
The now disheartened Audric drops his head, "We have worked so hard to lose everything now."
"Sir?" someone calls from the door, Audric pays no attention.
"Sir, it appears as though we aren't the only ones trying to conquer something." Audric looks up and notices a man in jeans and a black jacket.
"What are you talking about sergeant?" Audric snaps.
"I witnessed a monster-like creature attack the city. A fight ensued with some strange characters and it fared pretty well. After the fight, it retreated and I followed it back to where it came from," the spy in jeans and the jacket informs.
Audric's expression lightens as he contemplates the new developments. "All right, send a recon team and a diplomat over to request an audience with these things. This may be our only chance left!
---Meanwhile (Preventer Headquarters)---
"I'm glad you all made it on short notice," Quatre begins his speech, "but some new information has risen about Vanguard."
"Vanguard?" Sylvia asks, "What is Vanguard?"
Quatre looks to Lady Une, which gives him a nod, stands up, and walks to the young blonde.
"Sylvia, what we are going to tell you is classified and is not to leave this room." Une starts as Sylvia gulps, "Are you clear on that."
"Yes, Ms. Une," Sylvia acknowledges. Lady Une then proceeds to fill Sylvia in. She explains to her that Terranean is the front for Vanguard and they used her to complete an invention. She proceeded to tell her of the ill- fated operation where Wing Zero and HeavyArms were lost. Then filled her in that Vanguard is continuing to use their invention, and they are actually controlling it what it does. Most importantly that there is evidence that Heero and Trowa can be recovered, if they can unlock the key to the gates of Vanguard.
"So, as you can see Sylvia, the information you hold could put us a whole lot closer to our goal."
"May I ask what you think Vanguard is trying to accomplish?" Sylvia asks.
Wufei mutters, "They are probably hiding mobile suits wherever those gates lead. Only to return in full force when they believe they have enough strength to conquer the Preventers, thus being the only military power left in existence."
"Now for your part Sylvia," Une states.
"Yes, I will help out in whatever way I can. Not only to help you and Quatre," Sylvia declares taking Quatre's arm for support, "but also to repay Heero for what he has done for me already."
"I'm glad to hear that," Une responds, "Basically, we will send our people to go investigate what Terranean was doing with your company. We could also use your support in creating this device so we can recover our lost comrades. Are you up for this Ms. Noventa?"
"It definitely will be nice working for the good guys, and really nice catching up on old times with Quatre. I'm in!" Sylvia exclaims.
---Meanwhile (SM - A mile and half outside Vanguard HQ)--- "You okay?" Heero asks looking down at Mercury.
"I'm fine, who are you?" Mercury wisely asks in order not to give herself away.
"That is none of your concern," Heero strikes.
"Hey, we are the protectors of this city and demand to know what in the world is standing before us and what that other thing was!" Moon boldly speaks.
"I will NOT repeat myself," Heero warns walking away.
"Who do you think you are, boy," Venus now argues.
"Your worst nightmare if you cross me," Heero darkly threatens. "Trowa, we have got some work to do. They are obviously in this area, if they attacked these girls."
"We have to know what is going on!" Mars barks as Heero walks up to HeavyArms.
"Girls as innocent as yourselves should not try to involve yourselves in other's battles. Especially when you do not understand what is at stake," Trowa informs firmly as opposed to Heero getting angry with them.
"So after all of that, you are just going to walk away?" Jupiter yells after Heero, "I will not let you until you tell us what is going on!" Jupiter charges after Heero looking to tackle him by pure force and is surprised at the outcome. As she nears him, Heero with his back turned anticipates, sidesteps while grabbing Jupiter by the arm and hip-tosses her though the air, and she hits he ground about five feet from the attack point.
"Jupiter!" the scouts cry as Jupiter stirs and looks up at the would-be victim. Her eyes grew as wide as saucers, as the look in Heero's eyes look as if they could kill if proper eye contact was made.
"Who are you?" Jupiter mutters; visibly frightened by the assassin's demeanor.
Heero turns his look away from Jupiter and begins walking again almost to the foot of HeavyArms now.
"Scouts, I'm sorry, but this is the only thing I can think of to keep them here," Mercury wails with the sound of uncertainty present.
"We trust you, Mercury," Usagi cheers for her friend.
"We need to know what is going on, Heero," Mercury whispers to him.
Heero stops and turns around hearing his name, and looks to see what the would-be blue warrior has in mind. He never expected what followed. Before Heero eyes, Mercury de-transformed into Ami.
"What?" Trowa gasps. Heero stands in silence.
The remaining scouts de-transform themselves revealing the girls. Heero remains still thinking of his next move. Trowa looks down at Makoto who returns his look mistily.
"What is going on, guys?" Ami asks breaking the silence.
"You girls are too innocent to be dealing with problems like ours. Just return to your lives and enjoy them," Heero preaches.
"Once again, we are the guardians of this city and need to know what is going on," Usagi cries hoping to change the warrior's mind.
"No," Heero states firmly, firing a grappler hook onto HeavyArms getting ready to come aboard.
"You bastard, after these girls revealed a secret that only a few select people know in this entire world. You cast it off like you're too important. You are honor less and cowardly!" Ryo screams infuriated, and charges at Heero.
Heero stops and turns around revealing the most menacing look any of the girls could have imagined. Ryo didn't care, this Heero had insulted Ami and the scouts and he wasn't going to get away with it. He reared back for the much-needed punch to the face Heero needed in his mind.
Heero had other plans. As the insulting Ryo charged at him Heero actually moved into a fighting stance.
This alarmed Trowa, standing above watching this unfold. He jumped down from HeavyArms behind Heero. As Ryo reared his arm back to punch, Heero ducked and landed a massive punch that would've downed a large animal. Ryo gasps as the air, and probably a few other necessities, is knocked out of him. But Heero isn't done. As Ryo is suspended in air from the sheer force of the blow, Heero grabs him by the neck and blazes the menacing look right into Ryo's fading face.
"What would you know about true honor and courage you foolish boy," Heero intimidates with his grip becoming tighter and Ryo beginning to squirm, but waning.
"Heero!" Ami cries watching this unfold.
Heero hears her voice, it reminds him of Relena's voice. He looks at the struggling boy and tosses him up slightly in the air and proceeds to land a crushing backhand blow across his face, thus hurling him to the ground like a rag doll and out of further danger.
"That is enough, Heero," Trowa orders, "Your resolve is evident. However, it is misplaced."
"What are you doing, this mission doesn't involve them." Heero scolds.
"Heero, you don't understand the full situation. Just trust my judgment," Trowa fires back.
Heero furrows his brow, but decides to just watch his partner's plan.
"I gather this boy is not lying that we are a privileged few to know the famous scout's identity," Trowa begins.
Minako, visibly shaken by the recent events, mutters, "Yes, there are only a handful in this entire world that know."
"Please Trowa, we need to know what is going on," Ami tending to the badly battered Ryo.
"You all may want to sit down this will take a while to explain," Trowa now softly speaks trying to lower the tension level. The girls heed and sit. A few tend to Ryo, while another checks on Makoto.
"Heero and I are not from this world. We are from a world torn apart by wars," Trowa begins. "Many years ago, self-sufficient colonies were erected and put into space to live on. After some time they got sick of being governed by the distant earth and revolted. The earth proceeded to liberate these colonies by force in name of peace with new war machines called Mobile Suits. One of them stood before you not five minutes ago. Infuriated by the earth's hostile take over, the colonies secretly created superior mobile suits to attack at a later time with pilots that would be trained from an early age to become perfect soldiers. They would use this combination to strike back at those who do evil and try to manipulate the world for their own profit by force. Heero and I are two of these pilots and the red machine over there is my 'Gundam' HeavyArms."
The girls are speechless trying to make sense of what is going on.
Trowa continues, "After a long war, our world is at peace and we are in charge of eradicating anyone that threatens it. Enter that black mobile suit and its creator, Vanguard. Vanguard is a mysterious new organization with intentions we do not know as of yet, but it has the ability to transport itself between worlds. We were investigating how close they were to accomplishing the invention that was only rumored at the time. They used it and Heero and I were pulled into its byproduct. That is why we are here. We now need to find out what Vanguard is up to and stop it while finding a way back to our world."
"Overall, this does not involve you. We will take care of this and leave this world," Heero puts in. "Now if you will excuse us, we have places to be, it is not a good thing Vanguard knows we are here and on to them. Most importantly, keep your distance. This is more dangerous than you probably think."
The two walk back to HeavyArms. Trowa climbs into the cockpit, but not before getting one last look at Makoto. Heero jumps into HeavyArms' hand. HeavyArms jumps in the air and flies off to the north side of the city.
"What now?" Usagi mumbles in utter shock.
