Chapter 13- Gundams 00, 02, and 06
"I'll be right back." Duo called.
"Alright!" Gilly replied.
Duo went outside. He had a hefty supply of mobile suit parts, and the guy who was going to be here, all Duo had to do was wait. When the guy arrived, Duo was surprised that after their business was complete; the guy drove off without taking Duo's payment.
"Just a nice guy." Gilly smiled as she walked up behind him.
"Yeah."
"What next?"
"Repairs."
"Okay." Gilly smiled as she headed back.
Suddenly, the gigantic Wing Zero landed in front of Gilly and Duo. Gilly gasped in horror. The huge Gundam was ominous and seemed to glare at them. A voice came from within the cockpit.
"Duo Maxwell, I demand that you come with me. Do it, or you're dead." Lt. Trent Clark yelled.
"Hey, you do what you gotta do, but remember the power of that beam cannon! You could completely demolish this colony!" Duo replied.
"I don't care."
"Huh?" Duo was surprised, as well as Gilly.
"I have no interest in what happens to this place, kid! I've got no intention of remaining an insignificant technical officer. Once I figure out this Gundam's system, Col. Tuberoff's mobile dolls will be a useless tool of the past. What the new OZ needs is a completely new system. I'll do whatever is required to make that happen." He announced.
"Duo..." Gilly breathed.
"Don't worry, Gilly it'll be fine." Duo assured her.
"Who the Hell are you?" Trent asked.
"My name is Gilly Hathaway, and I am the pilot of the Knightsaber Gundam!" Gilly announced.
"Knightsaber?"
"I guess you could call it 07, but..."
"I don't care. You're unregistered, so you don't matter right now. Now, come here Gundam pilot. You're the only one I want!"
Gilly watched Duo go, and she knew what a big mistake it was to have anyone pilot Zero. She knew about what had happened with Quatre, and she also knew that Knightsaber's system was similar to Zero's, therefore, if Trent knew, that could be even more trouble.

"What's with all this junk you've attached?" Duo asked from within Zero's cockpit, "Alright, what do you want me to do?"
"I want you to fight the mobile dolls with Wing Zero here." Trent informed him, "With real fire arms, of course."
"That's fine with me, but I just might escape during your tests."
"No you won't." Trent assured.
"Huh?"
"I've set it so the Wing Zero's functions can be stopped from outside." He smirked, "And besides, I've programmed the mobile dolls to switch their targeting to that colony, in case you decide to try something funny."
Duo growled.
"Commence!"
Duo looked at the double buster rifle and realized that at this range, he'd hit the colony as well. So, he'd just have to go with the beam saber. As Duo fought, the Zero's system kicked in.
The image of Deathscythe appeared before him. Duo saw himself destroy Deathscythe along with the mobile dolls. He than saw the colony go. In a blast, Gilly, along with the colony were gone. He could hear Gilly's cries of pain, but there was nothing to be done.
"What am I doing?" He asked, "What in the Hell have I been doing?!" He realized the destruction of the mobile dolls around him, "No. No way! It couldn't be! There's no way! How could a person do this?!" He asked himself silently.
"It's possible." Trent crooned.
"Huh?" Duo looked up.
"Believe me, it is. We can do anything with this outstanding system. It's capable of altering human consciousness. Anything is possible with this."
"Lt. Trent, can you hear me?" The soldiers voice rang out over the system, "Hand over the Wing Zero and surrender yourself!"
"Ah. They're here." Trent sighed.
He threw Duo out of the cockpit, and began to prepare himself to fight.
"I can do this!" He yelled confidently.
Duo floated towards an approaching shuttle, "Damn! You better leave it alone, just forget that system." Duo sighed.
"Duo!" Gilly called.
She had a carrier with Deathscythe ready. The two heard the orders issued to kill Trent as Duo got inside Deathscythe Hell.
"Don't do it, Duo! Not in the condition you're in!" Gilly called.
"Don't worry 'bout me, I'll be just fine!" Duo yelled as he took off towards the fighting Wing Zero.
Trent and Duo began to fight, and the battle was almost lost to Duo, but the Zero's system began to grab hold of Trent's mind. Trent could see Duo self-destruct, and he watched himself die, too. In reality, Trent's mind couldn't take the strain of the Wing Zero's system.
"I can't lose to a punk like you!" Trent cried.
"If you were to lose, it wouldn't be to me, it'd be to Wing Zero!" Duo yelled as he prepared to kill Trent.
"There's no way!"
Duo heard Trent's scream, and he knew he was dead.
"You still don't get it, do you?" Duo asked, as he headed back for home.
"I'll be right back." Duo called.
"Alright!" Gilly replied.
