Episode II

The Begining

Location: Relena's estate

Time: Late at night

It was a stormy night. Rain poured from the sky as lightning followed after. In a particular room in Relena's manison, was a training room. All over the walls were covered with ancient weapons. Swords and guns hanged on the wall. Big rectangular windows fitted vertically on one side of the room showed the forested area. The only lights in the rooms were candles and the lightning outside only brighten the room briefly, before returning to almost complete darkness.

Relena was dressed in a tight leather pants and a sleaveless shirt. She held in her hands two dagger weapons, each were polished and had ner reflection on it. Around her were life size dummies where she can unleash her wrath upon. She was knelt down, with her arms and weapons pointed downward. Then she slowly brought herself to her feet and trained on the air around her, slicing and cutting the wind. She then attacked a dummy holdin a club, first slicing off the club and then spears one of her daggers into the dummy's throat and quickly pulls out to attack another one. She then jumped over and between two more that were holding guns. She cuts off their hands and the stabs both on the chest area. She the turned around and sees one last target. She twirls her blades around and throws one at the target's croach area and the other one at the head.

She then stood still for a moment and breaths heavily. Sweat pour from her face as she reached for a towel. But someone handed it to her. She looked up and the next lightning strike showed Jacen's face before her.

"Don't be so hard on yourself Relena." Jacen said, "It wasn't your fault for your father's death.

"What then...should I blame you," Relena said back

"If you want to. I was there with him." Jacen looked down a bit, "I should have done more..."

Then, Relena went up to him and embraced him.

"I'm sorry...why should I blame you after so many times you have protected me."

"Relena..." Jacen returned the hug

Location: St. Gaberial High. School, the following day.

Heero and Jacen is in the computer room.

"Heero Yuy's school record at St. Gabriel's High: all erased. Transfer approval from the Board of Education: OK."

Jacen then walks up from behind him.

"Heero, it's almost time to move out..." Jacen said, "I really hate to see you go off like this, risking your life for a lost cause..."

"Life comes cheaply..." Heero said as he walked out the door, "especially mine."

Jacen stands and looks out the window for a moment before leaving himself.

Outside Relena overhears a conversation about Heero,

"He's transferring?" a boy said

"You mean Heero? He's only been here for only a month or so, though..."

Relena ran to look for Heero and finds him in his room packing up.

"Are you going off to fight again?[ Heero turns around quickly and pulls out his gun ] I wonder where the next battle field will be. I met Dr. J. [ Heero gave out a I'm shocked face, and Relena approached him, and he points his gun at her face] So, even you can be surprised. I've been surprised by everything about you since the day I met you. You know, it's not a good idea to kill me here, at a time like this. Don't you think so? It's a crowded party. I would like you to stay and have a good time. At least, until the dance is over."

She curtsy and Heero gaved out a puzzled look.

Jacen watched from afar and doesn't seem to really care about it.

"(sigh) I used to be young like that...." Jacen said to himself and leans on the railing and takes another sip of some wine.

"Heero, I know too much. That's why I have to be killed, right?"

"...yes"

"I didn't want to die without knowing why. But now, I feel different. I somehow understand why you have to keep on fighting. And now, I'm fighting beside you."

"Beside me...?" then he noticed something in the distance and so does Jacen, "What's that? That's an OZ Mobile suit cargo jet! Do they know I'm here?"

"Shit!" Jacen said and he and Heero runs out, "their after Relena!"

Jacen jumps off the 10 story building, landing softly on the ground, and hops in his suit, but then stops.

"What if they know that I'm a Federation pilot, I'll just have to kill them all. I bet Lady Une herself is overseeing this....good. I'll eliminate another troublesome person off the face of the Earth and the world would be a little safer. Hey is Ace, you ready to rumble?"

"Any time you are Jacen. Let's see who's better," Ace said back

In the cargo plane, Lady Une prepares to attack.

"Use whatever means necessary. It is officially going to be reported as a colony terrorist's sabotage act against the Alliance"

"But... are you sure about this? Making an attack upon civilians?" a pilot said

"You're dismissed! I'll have another officer command the operation!"

"W-why?"

"This operation is much more important and serious than you think. I don't want to have a wimpy officer like you failing this operation!"

"Pardon me, Ma'am! I will carry out the operation as you ordered."

"Very well. Launch the operation."

"Roger. Descending now." She turns off the screen

"Calm down, Lady..."

The transport let out 3 suits and the fall onto the ground.

"Alright, let's go." and 2 buster blast came from the ground and destroyed 2 suits.

"Look out! Enemy attack!" the rest went into evasive action. Wing and Excalibur got up from hiding and readies to fight.

Heero flies back and shots his vulcans at the suits. Jacen takes cover behind a buliding and fires his forearm double vulcan cannons.

"Leo and Aries... Normal types, confirmed. I'll destroy them." Heero said

"Let's kick some ass, Heero!" and Jacen jumped out and slash at an Aries and diced it in half.

Relena looks up and took notice of what kind of suits were attacking,

"That's... That's an Alliance Mobile Suit! What is it doing here?" she said

The Leo and Aries land, and took positions.

"How did the enemy know we'd be here?" one pilot said, Wing charged at them.

"It's coming!" The Leo shoots its machine guns at Wing, but it shield from the shots, and rammed the suit.

Jacen aimmed his vulcans at Lady Une's carrier, but was unable to hit it.

"We're engaged in a battle with enemy Mobile Suits!" a soldier told Lady Une. Then, she recieves a message from Jacen.

"Colonel Une...." Jacen started in an angered voice, "I am Captain Jacen of the Federation armed forces. You have openly fired upon me and would be interpertted as an act against the Federation itself. I demand you stop this fighting and explain yourself."

"The real question is that what is a Federation officer doing out here?" Lady Une asked

"The same can be asked of you, Lady Une."

"My business here doesn't concern your nor your Federation. I suggest that you go away or face destruction from a stray bullet that might...accidently hit your suit..."

"Fine...be that way then..." Jacen cut off transmition

"What is the Mobile Suits types?!" Lady Une demanded.

"I've ID the one that is a Federaion type as 'Excalibur', but the others, I...I don't know. I've never seen a models like these before."

"Mr. Treize was right... they did appear after all. But in a place like this? Capture the unidentified Mobile Suits! Dispatch all of the remaining Aries!"

Three more suits dropped out of the carrier, and attacked Heero and Jacen.

"Hmmm," Jacen looked and then right, "Nine suits, four from the right, five from the left, engaging."

He took out his beam rifle and charged the Aries to his left and fired, and hit one, then he did a barrel roll, and evade all of the enemy's shots.

"This pilot has some crazy reaction speed, it's like he knew where we were about to shoot and he dodged them."

They then tried to attack Wing, but it flew backward, and evade all their fire.

"What the hell...! Its manoeuvring capability is much better than ours! Go to fighter mode. We'll ascend!" Heero readies his beam saber.

"You guys are too heavy to fly!" Ace said as his suit revealed to have thin looking heated chain whips attached to his arms, and with one slash he destroyed three more suits.

"Alright! Just a few more targets left, huh," Jacen turns around and sees Heero looking at something, or rather not someone, "Heero!"

Heero was staring at Relena,

"...Relena...."

The Aries shoots at Heero and then misses and hits the school, and a piece of the tower falls down towards Relena, Heero puts Wing's shield over her to protect her from the falling debris.

"What am I doing?" Heero said, "I should kill her, shouldn't I...?"

The last enemy kept on firing at Heero, and can't hit his target.

"It's stopped! Why?" the Aries pilot said

"What?! The Gundams are protecting Darlian's daughter?" Lady said to the pilot

"Yes, Ma'am. I've confirmed that the girl is our target: Relena Darlian."

"Does she have some connection to the Gundam pilot...?" She thought

"Heero... Is that you, Heero?" Relena shouted. Jacen starts to run toward Heero

"Heero! Heero get up!" Ace shouted the Aries stops and picks up a rocket launcher.

"I guess we'll have to save his ass after all." Jacen said to Ace

But then, Heero seem to look like he's about to loose it.

"Why...? Why...?! Why can't I?!!!!!!" Heero shouted and spins around and stabs the unsuspecting suit in the face with his shield, and dropped it on the floor.

Lady Une was angery at the situation,

"We...we lost them all!"the pilot of the carrier said

"Damn! I'll go down there myself!"

"Incoming call from his excellency!"

"What?" Trieze's face pops up on the screen.

"Lady Une... The operation has been cancelled. Return to the base immediately."

"But Mr. Trieze?!"

"I've decided to let Darlian's daughter live."

"But why, sir? This is a very important mission..."

"Lady...With the Gundams in the picture, the situation has changed now. It isn't your fault. Just come back."

"Yes... I understand, Sir....but what about the Mobile Suit Excalibur!?"

"Leave him be..."

"But...yes sir!"

Back at the school, Heero just stood there. Relena runs to Heero,

"Heero! It's you, Heero, isn't it? Answer me! Heero! Why did you save my life?"

"She's right... Why did I? She knows too much."

"You've supposed to kill me, aren't you? Answer me, Heero!" Heero then walks closer and then attempts to stab her with his shield and misses, "Heero!"

"Heero!" Ace shouted, "You done yet? Let's move out!"

"Why...why can't I kill her?!" he walks away and turns into flight mode, then blasts off with Ace, leaving Jacen behind.

"Heero! Please don't go away... Please, Heero..."

"Sorry Relena," Jacen said, "But that's how he is."

Jacen starts to go as well,

"Wait!"

"I can't stay either, O.Z. is now hunting both of us," This made Relena quite sad. Relena has known Jacen for as long as she can remember, and he has always been there for her, cheering her up, and protecting her, and now, the only other person that actually ment something to her is leaving.

"Wait, please don't go!" Jacen stops, unable to shake the feelings for her, gets out of his suit, and walks toward her.

"Please Relena, be strong in these hard times," He gets up really close to her, and puts his hands on her shoulders, she looks down.

"I..I can't. I'm scared, I don't have enough faith, I need your support. Jacen! (lifts her head up) you're all I have left now! You made me a promise.-" Jacen cuts her off by giving her a kiss, which came unexpectedly, and she widen her eyes in shock and then closed them.

"Never lose faith in yourself," Jacen puts something in her hand. "I will always be with you... don't take this the wrong way...I do love you, but...my heart is for someone else..."

Jacen held out his hand to her and she can see a ring on his middle finger, and she looks at her hand and sees the same ring on her ring finger.

"Remember this, and you will never be alone..." Jacen then turns around and walks to his suit, "This is not goodbye...I will see you again one day."

Jacen turns Excalibur into a fighter mode.

"Farewell...Relena."

"Wait!" but Jacen blasted off.

Relena stands there in front of her ruined school, and wonders if she'll ever see Heero or Jacen ever again...

A few days later. Jacen flies to the outskirts of the New Edwards base for observation to attack it,

"I can see many shuttles, but so far, none are O.Z." Jacen watches from afar with some high tech binoculars." O wait, there's Trieze's shuttle, and now to Washington state to join up with Kai and Joyce's forces when they land on Earth."

Jacen holds up a picture of him, and Relena.

"This is for you, Relena, so that the world will be a much safer place to live in. A world without war.....hmp, I can't believe those words came out of this mouth...."

Jacen gets in Excalibur and launched himself toward Washington.

Arriving at New Edwards Air Force Base on that day were Supreme Commander Marshal Noventa; Commander-in-Chief of the Space Forces, General Septem and Commander-in-Chief of the Earth Forces, General Ventl. All the top officers of the Earth Sphere Alliance Armed Forces attended the discussion of the treaty negotiations. Among the top officers were the Special's head, Treize, and his adjutant, Lt. Col. Lady Une. However, Treize had leaked false information about the meeting, giving the impression that the meeting was a gathering of OZ's top members, not the Alliance's.

"Now, let's see which way history will turn." Trieze said

"The way you planned, of course, Treize" Lady Une said

"It's now up to the Alliance. I can only help history decide its own course. That's how things work."

Elsewhere, Zechs and Noin flies in a carrier toward Nairobi.

"Lt. Zechs, Nairobi Base is asking us what the purpose of our visit is." an officer asked

"Tell them we're only here for drills."

"Roger,"

"Noin, this is going to be a regrettable mission. Are you sure you don't mind?"

"I believe in you, Zechs. If the order comes in, I'll follow it."

"The Alliance and OZ... Whichever becomes the new government, the world never will change. So why do you fight, Zechs?"

Back at the political meeting on New Edwards Air Force base, General Noventa addresses the assembly.

"In the beginning, the Alliance was a deterrent force to other growing military powers. But today, the Alliance itself has become a military threat to the world. There is no need to spend more money to increase our armed forces and to further develop new weapons. This is the path the Federation must choose to take."

General Septem stood up.

"You mean, you're seeking an arms reduction?"

"A reduction is only the start. Eventually, I believe we should completely disarm ourselves."

"I agree." General Benz said.

"General Benz?"

"We once fought hard. We had to in order to make it possible for us to reunite the world. But somehow, before we realized it, our honourable cause has become warped. We have to stop the bloodshed now..."

"If only we could do it alone. What about the recent incidents? The attacks made by those mysterious Mobile Suits made from Gundanium alloy? The Earth is being threatened by those invaders with superior weapons. The Special's have engaged in battle with them. What do you think about it?"

"We believe that they are acts of sabotage committed by the space colonists." Trieze said

"Trieze?"

"I feel like an actor reading a script."Trieze said in his head

"An actor?"

"Someone has to express what theAlliance officers really want to say, right?"

"It is only natural that the colony sides have a strong mistrust towards us. That is why we need to do something as soon as possible." Noventa said

"I couldn't agree more. Let's start a new chapter of human civilization with peaceful talks." General Benz said

"It's not only with the colony that we need to start talks with. We also need to start talks with ourselves."

"But, what about those Mobile Suits?"

"If they learn that our intentions are towards peace, they will lose their objectives. We will open talks. And that way, the path we have overlooked can be discovered again."

"History seems to be making a wrong turn." Trieze said

"Then?" Lady Une said

"No. Not until the final curtain rises"

"Then I would like to move our discussion to the actual agenda for a peaceful negotiation. First.." there were severl loud explosions outside the hall "W-what is it?"

"Sir! An enemy attack! The base is under an enemy attack!" an officer said on a big viewscreen.

"What? Those are..." The viewscreen shows Gundam Wing in bird mode approaching the base, followed by several dozen Federation suits and fighters, all firing at once. Wing, Deathscythe, Joker, Shadow, and the Federation suits starts a battle against enemy forces.

"Defenses are really heavy! This may be too much!" Duo said

"This is ten times more than what I expected." Heero said, and flanked behind a buliding and fired the buster rifle and fought with his Federation allies.

"We've got to take them seriously today!," Ace said as he whips out his chains and lashes at his enemies.

"It's taking too long!" Bruder said

"I'll break through the center!" Duo said, "You go right!"

Duo dashed forward to attack and slash at some more Leo's. There were 50 Federation suits, but they were holding their own even though there were a lot more Alliance and O.Z. suits.

Back inside, Trieze tells Lady Une to begin.

"Lady, the curtain has risen. Let's get our plan started, too."

"Yes, Sir." and presses a button on a mini computer.

Meanwhile at the same time, Jacen is inthe Excalibur and also signals his forces.

"...hmmmm, it's time," He presses a button in is console, "Now it begins."

At Nirobi, Zechs gets ready.

"Lt. Zechs, Operation Daybreak is underway." the pilot of the carrier said

"Alright, dispatch all forces!"

Hundreds of Mobile Suits dropped from their respective carriers and openly attacked the Alliance bases all around the world as well.

In space, Col. Kai, a Federation pilot readies to drop to earth along with hundreds of other dropships. Then out of nowhere, large battleships and space carriers appeared.

"The Federation space armada has arrived."

"Operation Eruption has begun, " Kai said, "Tell all dropships that they have a go to drop,"

"Yes sir,"

"I'm going down myself."

Hundreds of dropships decended to the Earth like a meteor shower, and when they entered the Earth, each launched dozens of suits, that fell toward the ground like rain. The total of Federation forces now present on the Earth sphere and in space is, 1,000 dropships with a total of 50,000 suits on Earth, 20 battleships, 50 carrier, and 35 battlecrusiars, now occupy the areas of L2 to L3 clusters, and there were 10 battleships, 30 carriers, 20 battlecrusiars on orbit around the Earth. O.Z. and the Federation now fights to gain control the most grounds on Earth, but the Federation has already secretly took control about 1/3 of known Space. In the US alone, it has over 10,000 Federation suits attacking from all directions.

Back at New Edwards.

"Tell them to stop fighting! We're seeking peace with the colonies!" Noventa ordered

"That's impossible! They're on a massive attack. We can't afford to stop fighting back or we'll be utterly destroyed."

"Marshal, we need to evacuate at once."

"But..."

"If you still want to seek a peace with them, that's fine; but I have the responsibility of protecting you while you do so."

"I don't need your sarcasm. But, no, I don't intend to die here, either. For the sake of the peace negotiations!"

"Then, please use our high-speed shuttle. It's always on standby for immediate take off."

"I'm frankly surprised to hear your kind offer."

"Marshal, we are still part of the Alliance Armed Forces."

"You're right. I accept your offer."

"This way, gentlemen!" an O.Z. officer said

"The shuttle is in hanger B-12." another one said as they lead the Alliance Generals to their doom.

Then Trieze stops General Septem.

"General Septem, please come this way."

"Why? Isn't the shuttle this way?"

"It would probably be a good idea to disperse the leaders into 2 planes, just in case. My private shuttle is at hanger F-7. It is a small one, but it's a special state of the art model."

"Is that right? Then, I'll follow your recommendation."

"Please" they leave for another shuttle



In the Alliance command center all Hell broke loose, as also all around the world.

"Dispatch all the Mobile Suits we have ready! "

"Commander! There's an emergency call from Fairbanks Base. There's a rebellion! It appears some regiments, that includes the Specials and the Federation, have rebelled against the Alliance!"

"Commander! Reports of rebellions are coming in from all over the world and in Space as well!"

"What?!"

In a Alliance base in Chicago, Federation forces was sweeping across the land like a flood. Also in D.C., Florida, etc and so on throughout the world. Thoughout the US, and all over the world, Federation suits revolts against the Alliance and fights O.Z. as well.

"All troops attack!" a Daniel shouted

"Engaging forces!" Wongfei said in Florida.

"Attack!" David in D.C said

Shiro Amada attacks in Europe, Mark Curran attacks in Africa, Amuro Ray attacks in Asia, Kuo uroki attacks in Canada.

"All forces, engage!" Shrio said leads an army

"Time to kick some titianuim ass everyone!" Mark shouted leads a squadran.

"Let's be all we can be everyone, attack!" Amuro ordered leads an army as well as squardrans of core fighters.

"Stand fast everyone, attack!" Kuo shouted, leads an army of a 100

All Hell broke loose all over the place, on Earth and in space.

Elsewhere, in Washington, Jacen and his forces have already started to attack base everywhere. Jacen stops some Leo's and tries to convince them to surrender.

"This base is now under our control. Surrender!"

"Don't be ridiculous, you rebels!" a Leo commander said

"Don't you smell it? The revolution's here"

"Shut up!" and fires his twin shoulder cannons, but barely damaged Jacen and literally gets butchered by him.

"Don't get carried away, Jacen!" Kai shouted

"....To create a new order is a wonderful thing. But isn't this too bloody a start?"

"Hey Jacen listen to this," Joyce said and Jacen tunes in to the local Alliance channel and hears a fimiliar voice speaking.

"Everyone, stop all unnecessary resistance! What we want is you, new comrades! The Alliance's era is over! A real unification can only be accomplished by the hands of OZ! Let's work together to create a new world order!"

Right away, Jacen reconizes the voice as his old comrade in arms.

"Zechs Merquize, that sounded too corny for you to have thought it up."

The coup d'e tat had been carefully planned and carried out. Using the name of Special's agents, members of OZ had infiltrated into every Alliance base on the globe. With the organization expanded to such a bloated bureaucracy, Alliance HQs quickly lost control of the situation, helping to create a devastating chaos.

Operation Eruption is the first of many operations to free the Earth of corruption and start anew with the birth of a new government. but until then this is total war, bitter fighting now perpetuates a solor system of unrest. a Coup'de ta was declared against the Alliance by the Federation and a massive campagn started to sieze and control as many Earth Nation as possible...in the name of peace and justice.

Back in the control room of the New Edwards Base.

"Asia! Europe! Africa! South America! North America! Alliance bases throughout the world have fallen to the rebels one after another."

"Where did Marshal Noventa go?"

"We don't know! We can't locate him anywhere."

"What's going on?!"

Outside Duo and Heero fights and more Federation forces appears to help out.

"Shit! They just keep coming!" an alarm does off, and Heavyarms appears on screen, "Missiles?! Aimed at us?!"

"Damn! Incoming enemy fire!" Ace shouted as he dodged some shots from Royal's sniper weapon, and Maxter's projectiles.

Heero and Duo dodged the missile attacks, and the missiles destroyed the Alliance units that didn't reacted as quick enough.

"I'm out of missiles." Trowa said and charges forward and shoots at a Leo and Quatre came down from the hill and help out. "We're moving in."

"Sorry. I have no time to persuade you to surrender today. But things are so urgent," Quatre said and chops up some Alliance MS's.

"Come on Quatre! Let's go!" Geo shouted.

"It is a good day to die!" Chapman shouted as he puts his long rilfe away and takes out his close rang rifle adn runs up along with Maxter to join Heavyarms.

"Save some for me!" Seatte shouted and jumped down to slice a leo in half.

"Come'on! Who wants some of this!" Crockett shouted as he shoots like crazy.

Duo and Heero scans the new suits.

"Are they OZ's new Mobile Suits?" Heero said

"But they're attacking the enemy Mobile Suits!" Duo pointed out

"Guys, they look just like us." Quatre said, "Maybe they're also..."

"Whatever they are, I'll destroy them if they stand in my way." Trowa commented

"They're just like us!" Duo said

When Jacen almost got there, he found the gundams already engaged in combat. The Alliance forces present could seemingly do nothing to stop the gundams. As Jacen scanned through the broadcast frequencies, He and lancemates picked up the frantic transmissions from a variety of Alliance military units. Things were so confusing and chaotic that they didn't even try to encrypt them.

"This is MS Team Five requesting assistance."

"MS Team Ten reporting, we need reinforcements!"

"***This is Team Six, what the Hell, swords, AHH****."

"***This is Team Seven, we're getting annihilated by a dragon-looking AHHH!****"

"***reporting.mysterious mobile suit with a huge gattling gun is tearing my Team to pieces.*"

"***mysterious mobile suit with a large scythe beam weapon is.***"

"***We have incoming, an enemy unit that has this huge***""

"Recon one, hasn't reprted back***"

"**Their breaking through!!!***"

The New Edwards command replied with similarly baffled messages to the Team leaders, as they did not seem to know what was going on, either. They were asking for more detailed descriptions and situation reports, but the mobile suit teams were too busy, or confused, as they were trying to fight back against the gundams. They were also sending out distress signals and requests for assistance to any other friendly military forces in the area and trying to get information from the Alliance intelligence or even the Alliance Central Command. However, they did not get any answers.

Apparently, the rest of the Alliance was just as puzzled as those at the New Edwards base were. Jacen could imagine the frustration of those in the New Edwards Command Center, not being able to make heads or tails of anything that was going on. Jacen heard the various communication and sensor controllers relaying the situation to their higher-ups.

"Check that, I have information from squad leaders telling me that there are only two commando units leading a group of 20."

"Not possible. Analysts from Central Command are telling us would take at lot more than just two or three mobile suits to cause such havoc on the military force present here."

"We just lost Team Five."

"Team Twelve is gone."

"-lost contact with Team Three."

"-not getting any response from Team Fifteen."

"They're dropping like flies, sir.!"

"***my god in heaven.three whole mobile suit units aren't responding anymore!"

"They can't hold them! They're breaking through on every-**"

"Wait.wait a minute.we are getting new contacts from the north, sir!"

"-Friendlies?"

"-I don't think so."

Jacen knew from that last transmission we intercepted that they had spotted us. They had not even bothered with the stealth cloaks because everyone was distracted by the confusion going on at the base. As he and his forces got closer, they saw on their sensors that all five of the gundams were here.

Jacen flew next to Heero.

"Well, well, well, look what the cat dragged in." Jacen said, "I was hoping to get the chance to fight along side with you again."

Then they see an O.Z. shuttle take off.

"That's it!" Heero transfrom into bird mode and flies toward the shuttle.

"This is just an unfortunate incident. I don't want to consider this an obstacle to the peace negotiations." Noventa and then,

"Marshal!" and he turns to see Wing, and it transformed.

"What?!" Wing gets close, "...don't regret what you are doing...young man"

And Heero destroys the shuttle with the Alliance officials,

"Mission complete."

Then Jacen felt a sudden pain in his chest.

"What's wrong Jacen?" Kai asked.

"...urg...death...I sensed many unnessessary death happened when Heero destroyed that shuttle...I have a bad feeling that we've just made a terrible mistake here,"

Almost all of the buildings were turned to rubble by stray missiles and weapon fire, as well from mobile suits that had fell on them. The wreckage of various kinds of Alliance mobile suits littered the area, as well as a few of Federation's own suits. It was all suddenly strangely quite, except for the sound of a few fires and exploding munitions stores and fuel tanks. Staring into the ruin of what was once probably a top of the line and highly guarded Alliance base, one couldn't help but wonder how many died without even knowing what they were fighting for, defending something that they thought was worth their lives. It was a scene Jacen and company was far too familiar with, and it had lost most of its impact over time. But, still, just to stand there and think.

When everything was all wrapped up, the present gundam teams were divided. Deathscythe, Shadow, and Joker were one one side and Sandrock, Heavyarms, Scimitar, Rose, Royal, and Maxter on the other side. While most of them seemed puzzled and confused, Duo seemed to have a bone to pick with someone.

"Hey, thanks for the great support!" Duo said, "Now let me express my thanks!"

Duo charged at Heavyarms and atacked him. Trowa whips out his arm blades and blocks Duo's attack. Then, Wufei abruptly appears, and stopps the fight between Trowa and Duo, by shooting his flame throwers in between the two. Then Sai and Asia went between them to keep it that way.

"Morons! Haven't you had enough meaningless fighting already?" he said to them.

"What is it with you men..." Asia said, "Always thinking that fighting solves everything."

"What the hell?" Heero lands next to the other pilots.

"Don't you get it? You've fallen into OZ's scheme! Tune into theAlliance's information channel. You've terminated all the peaceful doves in theAlliance!"

"It can't be!!"

Jacen and eveyone else of the Federation forces tuned into the same channel and listens to what General Septem said-

"-This is considered the colonies and the Federation's declaration of war on us! Today, we were here to discuss a peaceful negotiation with the colonies. And the man who was so eager to uphold that noble cause is no longer with us. He was among the victims, on board the shuttle, brutally killed by the heartless colony invaders! I repeat! This is an act of war!"

Somewhere else, Relena also sees it and sees Heero destroying the shuttle and then sees Jacen leading his forces.

"Heero! Jacen!"

"-We shall never surrender to the colonies!" Septem continues, "We will fight back, no matter what it takes!"

The camera turns itself off and Lady Une was standing there.

"Good job, General Septem. Your work here is done."

"What?!"

He was dropped out a door in the plane...

"That was a terrific performance. Too bad you have such a small role in this act." Then shoots him as well, "I didn't want to shed your blood near Mr. Treize"

"The Second Act has begun. We can't turn back." Trieze said and smiles.

Back in the base

"Everything was part of OZ's plan. We were completely tricked by Treize Khushrenada." Wufei said

"It... it can't be." Quatre said

"Shit!" Duo said

"I'll keep fighting OZ. Even if I'm the only one left." Wufe gets back into his suit.

"I... What have I done...?!" Heero said all shakened at what sin he has committed.

A passage from Jacen's personal journal...

...I'm a soldier, That's what I am. I'm always alone, that's how it's been, though I'm surrounded by friends and allies...I'm alone, I have nothing to lose, most of my family was all killed before the war, and for what...they never got a chance...I'm a lone warrior, a leader, and I never back out of a fight. I was born to fight...no, I was bred. I was created to fight, I was bred for battle...I will die fighting...

Captain's log supplenmental,

My group has reached the New Edward base, but failed to capture the Alliance leaders, as of now, ny team of 9 elite Soldiers and 20 units backing us up are being surrounded by the O.Z. Leo's. Though we could defeat them easily, they overpower us with overwhelming numbers, and I'm afaid that we might not be able to mantain our control of the base without additional support, but I'm optimistic that the rest of my team will get here.

The Leo's continuely fires on us, who took cover behind the rubbles of the ruined base. All the Gundams were there, Heavyarms, Deathscythe, Shenlong, and Wing. Everyone else was at the base, excluding Daniel, Davis, and Mike.

"Where the fuck is Daniel, and Mike!!" I shouted at Joyce, then taking out my beam cannon and blasted away.

"Don't know!" Joyce shouted back. Then she looked at Kai, who looked worried," Kai, what's wrong?!"

"Dectecting about 200 more targets behind the Leo's!!" Kai said," Air units, probility Aries."

"They're bring reinforcements!' Jerry said

"No shit!" Carl said, "We're screwed."

"Wait!" I said, "I'm getting a coded friend or foe acknowledgement from the new mobile suits!"

"That's David's Squardran!" Kai said

It was the battleship Ablion, surrounded by over 200 suits, and itself blasting away at the Leo's.

"Alright ladies, drop your socks and grab your throttle. Let's get those Leo's!" David said to his wing.

*************************************

Heavyarms, Maxter, and Royal were hiding behind a rock with the Thor. The group popped out, took out their guns, and shreded the Leo's and Tragos's.

Then Shenlong and Hydra drived their hands into a hanger door and tore it open. While Thor and Heavyarms finished up. Shenlong and opened the door, revealing carriers. Behind them was Dragon and Master Gundam.

"We haven't been properly introduced. I'm Jerry," Jerry said to Wufei, "Jerry Lakomeack."

"I'm Wufei Chang, pleasure to meet you." Wufei said back, "The two you see behind you are my comrades, Sai Saici, and Asia Haow."

The group of gundams sees that the carriers that they needed to escape had been booby trapped. Thermal sensors cover the hanger area. Their scaners revealed laser trip-wires

"Explosive devices, with infared sensors!" Trowa said

"That won't stop me I'm going after Trieze!" Wufei said and ran into the onslaught of traps, but the explosions didn't even dented the suit. Jerry followed Wufei and company while Carl follow Trowa and his team.

"Jacen, Permission to persue Trieze with Gundams 05 and 03?" Jerry asked

"Granted Jerry," I said, "They'll need some back-up anyway."

*********************************

"Trieze Khushrenada was using us like a bunch of puppies!" Duo said

"We totally screwed up on this entire mission," Quatre said, while Heero remained silient.

"Don't beat yourselves up Gundam pilots," I said trying to raise their spirits, "You did well for this country and for that, the Federation is indebted to you all."

"Let's go after him!" Duo declared

"No, that won't be wise," Quatre said

"Stay out of my way!" Duo said

"Our objectives have always been to target O.Z. when they least expected it. They probility have a trap all set out for us," Quatre explained

"I guess you're right, huh," Duo said then sees a couple more Leo's left, "So we didn't get them all."

"Never mind them," Geo said as she shield herself, "Let's get out of here. I say we leave and regroup!"

"Right!" Duo then sees that Heero is still standing, "Hey you! don't just stand there, you'll get shot!"

Heero was in depression about the failed mission.

"I can't believe that kid," I said to myself, "Heero! Heero can you hear me! Focus Heero! Your emotions are clouding your judgement!"

"Huh!" Heero thought of what Jacen just said to him.

Flashback

Time 4 years ago

Location: L1 cluster New Toyko ( Heero's colony ) on a shooting range

A young Jacen teaches a young Heero how to fire a gun.

"Now remember, keep your mind focus, no emotion when you fire, no mercy," Jacen said. Then Heero aims the gun and hits the target's head.

Then, we see a different scene. Jacen stands before Heero as he leaves for Operation Meteor.

"Remember, you're a Soldier, never let your emotions cloud your judgement."

Heero nodded.

~Remember Heero~

End of Flashback

Right when Heero snaps out of it, he got shot by a Tragos and fell down.

"Heero! You alright," I said lifting him up

"I...remember," Heero said, "What you said to me that day. I remember."

"That's nice Heero, but you picked a lousy time to regain lost memories,"

"Heero, can you hear me," Sally's voice ranged out over the P.A. "Listen to me Heero."

"Heero, so his name's Heero," Duo said

"The detonation system at the base's missiles have been actavated, O.Z. is planning to blow up the base in order to kill you Gundam pilots!"

"I've confirmed that," Quatre said, "There is about 40 large missiles situated at the New Edwards base, and if they were to explode at once, they would instantly wipe out a radius of 300 Km!"

"I need a bomb squad down here now!" I said

"There's not enough time for that!" Saette said, "There's about ten minutes before it blows! We can't possibly get away safely!"

"Heero, grant me one wish..." Sally asked, "Deactivate the missiles, Heero."

Wing transformed into bird mode ad blasted off to stop the missiles. While Heero does that, Quatre, my team, and I, cleans up.

"Good, I've secured 2 carriers, pal," Duo said

"Thanks, oh could you get your hands on one more carrier and get it for departure," Quatre said, "Heero's suit is probaly low on fuel."

"It's all up to you now, go for it Heero," Duo said

"He's got a 10% of success, but that guy could do it for sure,"

"Jacen," Kai said, "You sure we could trust dome one like him to stop the missiles at this base?"

"I understand, who would ever believe such a thing, but I'm proud of that kid. I've taught him too much for him to screw himself over from a mission this simple..." I said back

Heero then disarmed the bombs and climbed out.

"Thanks for all your help Gundam pilots," I said, "The Federation is indebted to you all,"

Then the Gundams flew off to save the rest of the world.

Heero climbed out of the missile silo," What a miserable mission. I screwed up...I TOTALLY SRCREWED UP!!!"

************************************

Location: The Pacific Ocean, miles from New Edwards.

Lady Une leans on a console and thinks about whatTriexe said to her.

"Learn about O.Z.? is it possible that I don't understand Mr. Treize?!" She thought to herself, "That just can't be."

"Captain,2 carriers from the 505 support troops are trying to establish contact with us." An officer said

"What type of carriers?"

"Aries, from our own forces,"

"Permission granted,"

"Wait! Just which did those carriers came from!?" Lady Une asked

"From the New Edwards base,"

"You fool! Those are enemies!" The carrier with Jerry, Wufei, Sai, and Asia crashed into a nearby ship.

"The other is heading for this mother ship!"

"Then shoot it down," The ship Lady Une was on started firing at Carl and Trowa's carrier, and damaged on of it's engines.

"We're starting to run out of fuel, due to the damage to the left engine. We're leaking fuel." Carl said,

"We're not going to make much of a bang because of that." Chapman said, "So what's the plan then?"

"Then we'll just have to exist in our mobile suits!" Trowa said as the carrier slammed into the flight deck of Lady Une's ship, and out from the ashes.

"Gundams, Gundams are on the ship!"

"What! on the ship, get them with the Leo's!" Leo's popped up onto the flight deck.

"Pathetic," Carl said ad both he and Trow took out their gattling guns and shread up several Leo's and continued blowing things up.

Chapman aimed his rifle and shot right through on Leo after another. Which cleared a path for Crockett to go in close and punched one into a wall.

"20 Leo's have beeen destroyed!" a soldier stating the obvious.

"What are you doing, throw him into the sea and get them with the Cancers!" Lady Une shouted in anger, "Where's his Excellency's ship?!"

"It's sailed away from the rest of the fleet."

Then Wufei and Jerry popped out," Must be this one Jerry."

"Detection of multiple Mobile Suits ahead at damaged battleship at starboard. Four more Gundams, these one came out of the carrier that went down!"

"What was that!!??"



Wufei and Jerry launched their claws at the bridge of the ship they're on. Asia jumped up and took flight and Sai jumped into the sea to fight the Cancers.

"Nice hydra heads you have there, Jerry. Most impressive." Wufei said

"Thank you, Wufei. Yours not that bad either."

"The Gundams are still attacking on this carrier Col Une!"

"I said throw them into the sea, there is no need to tell me their every move!"

"Right, the Gundams on the take off catapult!"

"Good, get a Leo onto the catapult and ram them off,"

A Leo launched itself right at Trowa.

"Trowa!" Carl shouted, but was too late for he was toss off as well.

"Carl!" Jerry shouted, "Hey Royal! Use your beam weapon to snipe some of the suits!"

"I'm trying!" Chapman aimed and and fired several times.

"Cannon ball!" Maxter took a dive into the deep waters and smashed a Cancer as he sunk down.

Heavyarms's blade went through the Leo that knocked him down, but the entire area they fell in were filled with Cancers.

"Whoa!" Carl said, then took his cannon and loaded it with torpedo cartriges.

Jerry, Asia, and Wufei jetted onto another ship before readying to attack Trieze's ship.

"There it is, here I go Nataku," Wufei ship to himself and to his Gundam, "What's that?!"

"Shit! Wufei look out!" Asia shouted as she got out of the way, but Wufei reacted slowly, and was rammed by Lady Une's modified Leo.

"Don't be so cocky Gundams," Lady Une said, "None of you scums are taking one more step closer to that ship!"

"You're think you can stop us!" Jerry said and took out a heat sword.

First he tried to chop at the Leo, but was blocked. Then he tried again, but missed. Then Lady Une knocked Jerry back and was about to hit him, but Wufei stopped her attack by grabbing her arm witht the beam saber.

"I wasn't expected much resistence, but it's game ove now, you die!!" She struggles forward to get Wufei.

"Stupid move, getting emotional," Wufei said, then crushed the arm. Then Jerry got back up and chopped off the arm. Then Lady Une punched at Wufei, but didn't even phased him.

"Step aside, you can see, you can never beat me, or any one of us!" Wufei shouted, "I don't kill people like you that doesn't deserve the mercy of death to save their honor! Now get out of my way!

"I've never thought Gundams were so powerful. I want them dead, huh," Lady Une heard a fog horn from Trieze's ship as it floats closer,

"Looks like your suppiour wants to fight with me. Find by me, I'll take him on!"

"Sir, what are you doing - get away from here!"

"Lady Une," Trieze said, "Leave them to me."

Wufei and Jerry jumped onto Trieze's ship.Wufei then zooms in to see Trieze holding a sword.

"So you're Trieze, you better be my guy," Wufei aims his claws and purposely misses Trieze, and expects to scares him, but Trieze stood still and clubs his sword, "Huh? I'll gladly accept."

Wufei grabbed hi sword and jumped out and ran into the ship.

"Should we help him?" Jerry asked

"Let's see if he is as good with swords as he is in Mobile Suits," Asia said

"My name's Wufei."

"I'm Trieze Khushrenada," and pointed his sword at Wufei.

Wufei did the same, and slapped it aside and did a fierce slash, but Trieze dodged it. Then Wufei tried another chop, but was blocked. Then Trieze did an attack of his own, but Wufei jumped up high and came down for a final attack. Trieze did a 360 degree turn, dodging Wufei's attack completely. Then before Wufei could get back up, Trieze pointed his sword at Wufei's neck. But Jerry had to be an ass and intervine in the battle. He had a scimitar and knocked away Trieze's sword from Wufei's neck. Then, he brought Wufei to his feet and gave him back his sword.

"The game is not up, yet!" Jerry said as he held Wufei's sword within arms reach and Wufei acceptted it

"Fine then. If you want to play as well," Trieze said and walked up to a wall and pulled down another sword.

"Let's take him," Jerry said and they both charged at him.

Trieze blocked Jerry's vertical slash, but when Wufei came from his keft side, he twisted Jerry's blade to his right and spun it around clockwise and blocked Wufei's attack with Jerry's own sword. Then he raised a foot and kicked Jerry into the ground and parried with Wufei with one sword while having the other sword behind him. Then, Trieze crossed his blades in an "X" to block Wufei's sword. Then retracts his swords and kicked Wufei into a wall. Jerry came from behind him and tried to attack him when he was not looking, but Trieze didn't need to look back as he foresaw the attack. When Jerry came to his right side again and did a horozontial slash at Trieze's stomach, and bent backward. When Jerry's sword went over Trieze, he tried to take his head off when Trieze bent backward, but Trieze got back up. Then, with one swift and graceful move, he knocks away Jerry's sword and slice through Jerry's flight vest and grazed some of his skin off, leaving a line of red on his chest.

Wufei then regained his bearings and tried to stab Trieze in the head, but Trieze dodges the relentless attacks, but showed no sign of being excited or scared for that matter. Then, the two crossed swords again.

"You have great aptitude...but..." Trieze then pushed Wufei back and they both charged at each other. Wufei cut loose at Trieze and missed, but Trieze didn't and he felt a pain coing from his abdomin, "You don't charge aggressively enough...You two are too good to be kill...so I didn't."

Trieze only hit Wufei with the back of his sword. Wufei got back up, holding his stomach in pain.

"Kill me," Wufei said in disgrace and hoping for a seppeku, but Trieze only frown and lowered his sword.

"It was a good fight,"

"If you don't kill me, I'm going to keep coming back until I get you Trieze!"

"That sounds intresting, I hope we can battle again,"

"Urg!!" Wufei stabbed his sword into the ground and left. Jerry got back up and looked at him for a moment.

"Please send Jacen my reguards...Jerry," Trieze said. Jerry said nothing in return, then picked up his weapon, and followed Wufei out.

Meanwhile, underwater, Trowa's blade went threw yet another Cancer, and Carl destroyed another with his torpedos. Trowa turned to see Wufei and Jerry's suits sinking.

"Did those two actually completed their mission?" Trowa thought to himself, "Hey! you over there, can you hear me!"

But to Wufei didn't answer, "I understand, let's just...drop the subject."

"Everyone withdraw!" Carl shouted and Asia and Chapman that were still high and dry took off.

********************************************

Back at the New Edwards base, the team and I planned our next moves.

"Alright team, the Pacific fleet will reach New Edwards in about 2 more hours. What are the rusults of your landings?"

"Joyce and I landed with some minor problems, but I quickly took care of it," Kai said

"Mike and I reached Chicago with no problems, and stationed 20 suits there, and 10 suits from the bases folowing our route to here." Daniel said

"I did find, brother," David said, "The capital was easy to take over, and the new congress is being form as we speak."

"Hey," Wong-Fei said, "Where's Jerry and Carl?"

"I've assigned to a new mission," I explained, "And speaking of which, Kai and Joyce. I've got a new assignment for you two."

"What?" Kai said

" You both have been reasigned to be...agents to infiltrate O.Z."

"I see," Kai said, "How do you feel about this Joyce."

"An agent! ...cool,"Joyce said, "I've always wanted to be a secret agent."

"I know this seems to be fun, but this is not like James Bond," I said

"Who's James Bond," Kai asked

"...Never mind that. You two are now elite officers of O.Z. Your papers and documents have already been done and fake ID made.Your mission is to collect data on bases, troop deployment, defense positions, secruity codes, the works."

"Great," Kai said

"Good, your first mission is to get info on some bases in Europe, so we can attack the MS factories there, but it shouldn't take you 2 too long, and after you 2 got the info, send it to me and leave to go to Luxemburg to join Zechs Merquise. Since he is another high raking officer of O.Z. You must gain his trust in order to work with him."

"Right," Kai said

"Alright, everyone else knows what to do, let's move out!" I said

The conflict was now probably going to last much longer than we originally intended. However, it wasn't a complete loss as we did manage to free the US from Alliance control. The gundam pilots still continues to fight and we now have to prepare for battling...the final war in Earth's history...



...and Thus began our mission to bring peace, and my quest to find it.

To Be Continued...
