Chapter 4: Battle Engaged

Previous: **COSMOS, YOUR MISSION IS TO PROTECT THE FIVE GUNDAM PILOTS AT ALL COSTS**

**RODGER THAT, COSMOS OUT**

~All costs includes my life~ sigh~ Then again, I'm like a bad penny. I always turn up. My life is cheap since I'm immortal. Doesn't make me feel any better about it though.~ she grumbled.

Cosmos arrived at the scene of combat. Three of the gundams were surrounding the two kneeling, open gundams whose occupants clearly were no longer inside them, but in the facility completing their missions. Cosmos patched into the gundam's communication network and slipped into battle. Dancing out of sight of her protectees, she pulled a beam saber out of her subspace pocket and proceeded wield it with a great deal of vigor. She destroyed Leo right and left, leaving their pilots enough time to evacuate before their worlds blew to kingdom come.

Cosmos kept an eye out for the returning pilots to make sure that they get back to the safety of their gundams as she slashed through a line of Leos.

"Quatre, I keep seeing something out of the corner of my eye."

"I do too. Keep an eye out for it, whatever it is." Two * RODGER THATs * came back and the chaos continued.

Duo and Heero where sprinting out of the building towards their gundams. Heero was bleeding profusely from a shoulder wound where he had caught a ricochet and Duo a sore shin that he had gotten when he slipped from setting the explosives. They were being chased by Oz soldiers and knew that they had to sprint once they got to the open court. They were halfway there when Heero got nailed in the ankle by a sniper. Duo, alerted by the grunt turned around to help his buddy to his gundam but gulped as he realized that they would get captured at the rate they were going.

Out of bullets and out of time, Duo found himself and his semiconscious partner half surrounded with weapons pointed at them, safeties off and fingers squeezing the triggers. Suddenly the air above them became shadowed. Duo and the men glanced up to see a black figure descend upon them. The guns fired and Duo cringed, protecting Heero with his body but was untouched. Looking up he saw the plated face of his saviour and his wings extended to shield both teens from the rain of bullets. Swiftly turning around, still shielding both boys. She fired the plasma cannons at their feet, kicking up dust. She then took Heero from Duo. "Run I've got him." Duo took off to his gundam as the strange mecha ran behind him with his partner. He watched as the mecha bound up to Wing gundam, placed and buckled Heero inside and placed its hands on Wings chest. The Pilots cockpit closed and Duo watched as Wings eyes light up he was unsure how that could be because hero was unconscious. Brushing it off until he was back at base he blasted off and blew the base.

Radioing the other members of the team, he signaled mission accomplished but that Heero was gonna need some serious medical attention.

"02..02.. Do you copy?"

"02 here. What you need stranger?"

"Right now I'm driving Wing, so if you would direct us to a secure location where you park him and medical attention for 01 ASAP, that would be optimal."

Duo saw two flashes of light.

"And if you would be so kind as to tell 04 and 05 to back off that would be nice too."

Duo turned Deathscythe around as he opened com with the others.

"Don't shoot, he's driving Wing." Wufei's eye twitched as he watched the small mecha cling to the much larger hand of wing. Actually it appeared that wing's hand was secured around the body of the strange mecha with the mecha's wings, shoulders, arms and head protruding only.

"Rodger that." Wufei then opened a link with Quatre and Trowa.

"Do you think that that mecha is what we kept seeing at the base?"

"It very well may be."

"But what is it?"

"I think it is human inside." Piped up Duo, "It is to unregulated to be a robot."

"Let's find out and take Heero in ourselves." Quatre stated. " I don't want an unknown to find out our base of operations." The others nodded at his suggestion and surrounded the gundam and mecha.

"We will take him from here."

"Very well. Are you supporting Wing?"

Cosmos watched as Sandrock and Deathscythe moved into position.

"Hey wing you can let me go now."

"......."

"Very funny, I think that you just cracked a rib."

Wing released the mecha suddenly, who swore and had to flap its wings and flare it's thrusters to stabilize. It came back up to wings chest level and gave him a kick.

"Jerk, watch it or I'll rewire you."

The other pilots swore they saw Wings eyes flare when a voice brought them out of their thoughts.

"Wing has 01 on lifesupport and I hooked him into a transfusion and some medications while I was in there."

"I didn't know that wing had those capabilities."

"There are a few things that you gentlemen don't know about your gundams. Take care."

Cosmos started to leave the area when a giant hand snatched her out of the air.

"Itai! Watch it 05, I was serious when I said that Wing squeezed too hard."

Wufai opened the hand and the mecha flipped its wings then settled them against it's back.

"I'm not going to be allowed to leave until I answer some questions am I?"

"That is correct."

"Alright, shoot 03, but make it snappy. 01 should be ready for his next bag of blood and another doctor soon."

"Are you human?"

"Yes."

"What type of mecha is that?"

"It's a unique body armour. I designed, built, and modified it with the help of one of my old teammates and some old men that you know."

"Who are you?"

"Lieutenant Colonel Webb. Call me Lt. Code name Cosmos."

"Whom do you work for?"

"Mutual acquaintances that happen to be old and cranky."

"Your suit has.."

"Are you female?"

"Yes."

"An ONNA?!!?"

"Last time I checked 05."

Snorts came from the other three suits.

"It's been a slice gentlemen. Take care of 01 and watch your backs."

With that she spread her wings and flew away.

"Like an angel."

"What was that Trowa?" asked Duo

"......"

"Right. Let's get Heero home before he wakes up and decides to kill something."
