Chibodee looked up at Gundam Maxter. The battle was far away from the city so a bystander couldn't get hurt. He turned and looked at the fallen rubble of this part of the city. No one was allowed here. The place was a death trap waiting to happen. Chibodee saw the image of a girl walking forward. He knew it was Shika.
Strangly she wasn't in her balck fighting uniform or her normal clothes but in an out fit that was the same as Domon's. The cape over her shoulders waved with every step. As she got closer Chibodee could see the fire burning in her eyes. He could see something else. Half of her face was covered in Dark Gundam Cells.
"Neo-America Fighter I will not go easy on you. This has to be a fair fight to the end. Do you understand?"
"I understand." Chibodee answered her.
He lept up into the cockpit of Gundam Maxter. Shika raised her fingers and snapped.
"Raise Gundam!" She yelled.
The ground under her broke and Burning Gundam rose from the rubble. As the gudan rose she lept from her spot on it's head and down into the cockpit. The computer flashed to life and the ring rose.
"All systems are ready." The computer said.
The ring rose and Shika was covered in a tight black uniform with a red dot on the shoulder. She pulled her feet up from the floor with a slight growl. She smiled and stepped back in a fighting postion her hand on her sword. Chibodee did the same but hand his hand ready to grab his gun.
"Gundam Fight!" She yelled.
"Ready!" He answered.
"Go!" They yelled.
Shika drew her sword and attacked but Chibodee was to fast and drew his gun. A few shots at her hand and the sword wehn flying. It hit the ground. But she didn't stop. SHe went in to a kick and knocked his gun way to the ground.
They both yelled and pulled back for a punch. Their fists met between them. The sound echoed over the rubble and down to the city. Domon looked up from where he sat on the roof. He could see the two gundams.
"It has begun." He whispered.
At the spaceport Rain and Bakurou stepped out in to the city. George and Argo stood next to a car and nodded to her. Bakurou looked up at the two men worried.
"Mommy who are they?" He asked.
"Their a few of Shika's friends."
"They must be Gundam Fighters then. Are they going to take us to Shika?"
"Yes they are hunny." Rain said looking at them dareing them not to.
"I don't think you want to see her Rain." George said softly.
"You'll take me to my daughter." Rain growled.
George nodded and opened the door. Rain got into the car and Bakurou followed her. He looked around and huddled close to his mother. George and Argo climbed in the from and they began to leave. As they drove Bakurou staired out the window. He spotted something.
"Stop!" He yelled.
George slamed on the brakes as the small boy jumped out.
"Mommy, Shika is over there." He yelled running down an alley.
"Bakurou Come back here!" Rain yelled running after him.
Bakurou Ran though the alley and climbed up over a pile of rubble. He could see two gundams battleing. His eyes sparkled as he saw it was Burning Gundam. He laughed softly and jumped down heading over the pile. He ran towards the battle. Rain topped the Pile and saw. Tears filled her eyes as Burning Gundam threw Gundam Maxter to the ground.
"Bakurou Stop!" She screamed.
He did and turned to looked at her. Rain ran down and enbraced her son. She could feel tears landing on her arm as Gundam Maxter began an assualt on Burning Gundam. Rain looked up and saw sparks flying from almost every part of Burning Gundam. It locked hands with Gundam Maxter.
"Mommy Shika's going to die isn't she."
"No of course not."
"Please don't lie to me. I can feel it."
Rain looked down and she swore she saw a young Shika in her arms. Rain pulled away as the memory flooded her mind.
It was raining that day and Shika just stood out in it. Rain tried to get her to come inside but nothing would work. The seven year old turned towards her mother pure fear filled her eyes.
"Mommy, I'm not going to grow up, am I?"
"Don't say that Shika. You will grow up." Rain said softly.
"Please don't lie to me." Shika turned back to looked at the water. "I can feel it."
Rain wrapped her arms around the small girl. "Don't be such a silly little girl. All good girls grown up."
"Do you really belive that?" She said turning to looke up at her mother.
Rain didn't know what to say.
"Do really belive that I'll grown up? I know I'm different but I just don't know how."
"Shut up Shika You'll grow up."
"How can you be so sure?"
"Shut Up! You'll grow up!" Rain yelled.
Argo and George looked down at Rain. Tears ran over her face. Bakurou looked at his mother then up at the Gundam Fight. Shika's eyes were burning red as she attacked Chibodee. He punched her and the gundam went tumbling to the ground. Shika forced the damaged machine up.
"Do it Now Chibodee!" She yelled.
Chibodee felt his heart race. He wasn't sure. If he destroyed this monster he would destroy the Shika he called Little Fire Punch. He could see Rain cring. Argo and George turned thier heads away knowing what was about to happen. Bakurou stood tall tears slipping over his cheeks. Domon's words came back to him.
'Chibodee some times the needs of the many out weight the needs of the few.'
"Chibodee!" Shika yelled her voice was turning.
Chibodee reacted and grabbed his gun from the ground. He fired and the shot echoed. The action seamed to freeze. Rain looked up as did Argo and George. Bakurou shook his head as Burning Gundam began to fall. It drop to it's knees and fell at Gundam Maxter's feet.
"No." Bakurou whispered. Tears streamed down his face. "NO!" He screamed and ran towards the fallen Gundam.
Chibodee jumped out of Gundam Maxter and took a deep beath looking at the fallen Gundam and the smoldering hole though it. Bakurou ran up and stopped short. Chibodee turned to see the small boy. He winced and turned his head away. Bakurou ran over to the Chibodee and pounded on his leg.
"How could you? Shika was my sister! She thought you would protect her. She told me she trusted you and the others with her life and you killed her!" He screamed and dropped to the ground cring.
Chibodee bit his lip and gathered the small boy up in his arms and softly cried.
"She trusted you. She wanted you to help her." He whispered.
"I did the only way I could." Chibodee said softly.
