The Lost Pilot

Chapter 15

by Loki

"Where are we?" asked Taaria.

"Who knows..."

Anni and Taaria looked at each other. They were both identical from their head to their feet. But they weren't the same. They were completely different. Each had a different face, one good, and one evil. "Why do you keep trying to get back into control?" asked Taaria.

"Because I am the controller, you were just the person that was created to push me aside!"

"And did it work?"

Anni remained silent. Taaria smiled. "I though so. In the world, the weak die, and the strong live."

"I am not weak..." Anni said softly.

"What did you say?"

"I said... I am not weak."

Taaria let out a soft chuckle, which grew into a hearty laugh. "You have GOT to be kidding me. You... strong? Give me a break!"

"I only have one reason to live... and that's to get revenge for my father. He was a good man, and not evil like all the other Oz soldiers are."

"Our father was a cold blood killer. He deserved the title of Commander of LunarClyte. He loved to kill and conquer."

Anni clenched her fists and stood up. "He was not!"

"Yes he was and you know it!" Taaria retorted back. "You know that he was a murder and an evil man who wanted control of the colonies and Earth. He wanted us to take his place, but you just had to turn into sweet, little Anni. He wanted us to become Taaria. And when I get out of this godforsaken place, I will kill Rasam, take my place as Commander of New LunarClyte, and conquer everything in my path!"

"And when that is done, I will gather up a large group of soldiers, and kill those annoying Gundam Pilots, who are your so-called friends. When they are taken care of, no one will stop me!"

Anni looked up at her evil self, with hatred in her eyes. She tried to fight the anger that rose inside her. A single tear drop fell from her eye. "Aw..." mocked Taaria, "Looks like a made cute little Anni cry. Boo hoo..."

Anni growled and brought up her hand; she punched Taaria in the face. "SHUT UP!!!!!"

Dr. B gazed down at her coffee. She started to wonder what tortures Anni was going through... Did I really send Anni to her death? Am I really that blind that I couldn't see that...

"Dr. B? Where are you?"

B looked up at the sound of her name. "I'm in here Maude."

The old woman walked into the room, and smiled. "We're going to go rescue Anni. Howard and the others say that we should get into the Leos and Aries, and let the others fly in their Gundams. Howard and the other Doctors will be traveling in the Carrier. Hurry up and come."

B set down her coffee in the sink. She looked at Maude and said, "Let's go rescue her."

Heero was adding some adjustments to Wing Zero, when Trowa walked next to him. "Heero. We still have a signal coming from Deathscythe, but it's starting to weaken. Wufei says that we should leave now, before it's gone completely.

"Hn.. Ok. Go tell the others to get in their Gundams. I already sent Maude to fetch Dr. B and Howard."

"Right," said Trowa, as he went to search for Wufei and Quatre.

Duo looked at the locator on his watch. "It says I'm getting closer, but I don't see anything around here..."

He turned his Gundam in ever direction, but it was empty. There was no base. Not even an asteroid that could remotely fit a colony as big as the one he was in earlier. "It couldn't have just disappeared."

A small object floated past his screen. He outstretched his hand and looked at it. He smiled wearily and said, "Looks like they found the locator..."

A shower of bullets nearly missed Duo, as it came from somewhere in space. "What the? Where did that come from?"

Just as things looked like it couldn't get any worse, a fleet of 50 Mobile Dolls appeared and began their attack. They spit up into five groups and surrounded Deathscythe. Duo whipped out his laser scythe, and raised it up to destroy the first group, but it was repelled. "What?"

Five little machines floated around each of the Mobile Dolls, protecting them from powerful attacks. And with five on each Doll, that made the five groups have 25 of the protectors floating around them, which made them pretty much indestructible.

"Dammit! How do I defeat these guys?" cursed Duo.

He lifted up his right arm, and fired his Hyper Jammer, but the shield destroyed that before it even hit the MD. He fired out a couple more of them, but he kept getting the same result.

Duo grabbed his gun, located on Deathscythe's back, and shot at them. Of course, if the Hyper Jammers and his Laser Scythe didn't work, than this gun was just a massage to it. When all the ammunition had been used up, he tossed it aside and flew straight on to the closest group. "If my weapons won't work, than I'll just have to use my fists!"

He jumped up in front of one and attempted to punch it in the face. But before he reach them, the other four groups attacked him from behind, and they each shot him with their laser guns. "WHAT!?" yelled Duo, as he got hit.

Duo yelled and was pushed into a floating piece of asteroid. All fifty Mobile Dolls flew in front of him, and aimed at him again. "N.. No way!" cursed Duo. "How can they move that fast!?"

He saw as each of their lasers joined to make one big shot, and closed his eyes for the end.. "I'm sorry... Anni..." he said.

Just then, Sandrock flew by, and quickly dragged Deathscythe out of the range. He was just seconds away from being blown up. "Quatre?"

"Save your sorry until you see her in person, Duo. As Anni, of course, not Taaria."

Duo smiled. "Thanks, man.."

As soon as Quatre brought Duo back to the Carrier for some minor adjustments, Trowa and Heavy Arms went into the battle. He brought up his right arm, and fired his barrel gun. The spray of bullets merely bounced off the shield and continued into space. "Heero! Wufei! The Mobile Dolls have some sort of powerful force fields. Be careful."

Both the pilots chuckled and went into battle. "TAKE THIS!!" yelled Wufei, as he shot out his Vulcan at one of the MD. The Vulcan stopped at the edge of the shield, and tried to get it's way in. Sparks started to fly from it, but Wufei didn't see it. Heero did.

"Wufei! Bring back your Vulcan! If you try and force it in anymore it will cause an explosion. Don't jeopardize this battle!"

"Right!" Wufei pulled it back, but not without any consequences. "I've sustained minimum damage, but damage none the less. I can no longer use the Vulcan, or my flamethrower."

"Doesn't matter... you couldn't use them anyway," retorted Heero. "It looks like the only way we could win, is if we destroyed the force field. And to do that... we must destroy those object floating around them."

Trowa detached the barrel gun from his arm. "This should make fighting a little easier..."

Next, he took out the sword located on his leg, and flew towards the Mobile Dolls. Inside one of the Mobile Dolls, a person raised their index finger and shook it side to side. "Uh-uh... that's a bad boy..."

The person grabbed the joint sick, and brought it up for defense. Another Mobile Suit, which was the one Trowa was aiming for, lifted up it's arm and blocked the attack.

Quatre gasped as he watched the battle. He called to the Pilots to stop fighting for a minute. "They're being controlled by the person in the big Mobile Doll. It's the only one that's showing a person on the heat sensor."

Wufei looked at the middle of the group, and saw it. It was identical to the other Mobile Dolls, but was much bigger. "How come we didn't see this before."

"Guys! That big one has no weapons on it. It's only use it that it can control the other Mobile Dolls. If you destroy that one, than all the rest should go down as well!"

"Mission Accepted," said Heero, as he started to dodge the smaller Mobile Dolls.

The person laughed at Heero's attempts. "You won't reach me... I'm much too smart."

They grabbed the joint stick again, and flipped up a latch. Under that latch was a red button, and the person just pressed it. "Good bye."

As Heero passed this one Mobile Doll, it turned around and aimed it's laser cannon at him. All the others did the same thing.

"GOT YOU!" yelled Heero as he lifted up his beam saber, about to cut the big Mobile Doll. But he was shot down by all the others, and fell down. Trowa flew by to catch him, and looked up at the leader Mobile Doll. "It just commanded all of the Dolls to attack at once! Unreal!"

Wing Zero was pretty beat up, but it was still usable. Heero wasn't going to give up. "Damn that guy."

Both of them met up with Wufei again. They heard Quatre an Duo call from behind them. It seemed that while they were fighting, Howard fixed up Deathscythe, so now all five Gundams were ready to fight.

"I've been trying to find away around the shields, but there is none!" yelled Quatre.

"We can help here."

They turned around to see Maude in an Aries, and Dr. B in a Leo. Maude appeared on the screen. "While we were held captive, we made a nifty device that sends out electrical waves. I'll bet that if you throw it at the Mobile Dolls, it will temporarily knock out their shields, giving you enough time to destroy them. We just ask for one thing..."

"And what would that be?" asked Wufei. He didn't like to play guessing games.

"Leave the Leader Mobile Doll and the pilot inside alive," answered Dr. B.

"Fine with me. If it has no weapons, than it won't be able to attack."

"I still don't see why we can't just kill the person..." said Trowa.

Maude looked at him. "You can't kill the person because inside that Mobile Doll is..."

"Anni.." finished Duo for her.

"What?"

Dr. B looked at Duo. "How... how did you know?"

Duo gave a weary smile. "No matter where we go, it always seems that it's Anni who's our enemy. In shorter terms, call it a hunch."

An image appeared on the screen, and sure enough, it was Anni. "Very good Gundam Pilots, it looks like you found out my identity. How wise you are."

"Miss Anni!" called out Quatre. "Please come to your senses! We don't want to fight you!"

"Miss Anni? What a funny name. I'm sorry, but you have the wrong person. My name is Taaria. I am under the service of Rasam Tanner. He is my master and I will forever be loyal to him."

"Anni..." whispered Duo.

Another Mobile Suit, a Virgo, flew next to Taaria. Rasam's face appeared on each of the Gundams' screens. He smiled to them. "I see that you have become acquainted with the new Taaria, or to you, Anni. My scientists, and best workers found a way to keep her under my complete control."

"What did you do to her?!" yelled Wufei.

"It's quite simple, 05. All we had to do was erase the former hosts..."

Quatre gasped. "What do you mean by that?"

Rasam continued. "There are two types of control in the world. One is good, and the other is evil. Your Anni was the good. I got rid of her and unleashed Taaria. But she proved to be a little too strong to contain. So I just got rid of her as well." "No..." whispered Trowa.

"Without good or evil, all you have left is neutral." Rasam laughed. "And the person you see in front of you is neutral. All she needed was someone to take orders from. The perfect soldier. She will do any mission, any battle, and have no complaint about it. Without that chip in the back of her head, she would be nothing but a lifeless doll without a master."

"But now I am her master. I am her controller. She will listen to me, and only me. Now, Taaria!" The girl looked at him. "Finish off these pests...."

"As you wish... master."

Rasam laughed evilly and flew off in the other direction. "NO!" yelled Heero, as he began to ensue him.

Taaria saw this and grabbed his leg. "You are my opponent."

She swung Zero up, and them smashed him into Wufei. They both fell into nearby asteroid, and created a huge creator. "Heero! Wufei!" yelled Quatre.

He cursed and looked at Taaria. "I guess it's my turn."

He shot forward, and brought out his beam saber. He was about to destroy the surrounding Mobile Dolls, when an MD from behind got in front of him, and blocked the attack. Another MD fired laser bullets at Quatre. He was forced to retreat, and returned to Trowa and Duo. "Quatre!" called Trowa. "Are you ok?"

"Yeah... fine.." He wiped away a falling trickle of blood from his head, so the others wouldn't worry. "How much longer will it take for you to get the weapon ready?"

Maude looked up and said, "Just a few more minutes! B and me are putting some final touches on it!"

"Hold on for one more minute..." added Dr. B.

"Easier said than done, onna!" yelled Wufei, as he tried to slice the Dolls again. It still gave him the same result, and he knew it, he just couldn't stand to just stay there and wait for the enemy to make their move.

Taaria laughed. "You always were easy to predict, Wufei."

"What?!"

He looked around him. The Mobile Dolls had surrounded him, and now, each of their were aiming their cannons at him. "W.. When did they? How did they...?"

"They are under my control, Wufei. Where I want them to go, they go. Get it?"

Wufei growled, but was interrupted as Dr. B started to yell at the Pilots. "Make a clear passage. I have to have a good shot!"

They all moved away behind her, as she attempted to throw the object. It was a medium-sized metallic ball that made a soft humming sound. She threw it up it in air, as it just hovered over the battle. "Brace yourselves, boys..." she said, and pressed a button.

A bright flash illuminated the sky blinding everyone. "Ok. You'll have thirty seconds to destroy all of them.... MOVE!!"

"RIGHT!!" The five Gundams shot out; one taking out each group. Sandrock brought out his Heat Shouls and sliced them down one by one. "We must hurry!" he said.

On the other side, Wufei took out his beam trident, and repeatedly sliced the Dolls in half. "I hate fighting the weak, but sometimes... THEY MUST BE TAUGHT A LESSON!!" He sliced the head of one of the Dolls who tried to shoot him from behind.

Heero was only using his beam saber, and was chopping all of them up into tiny pieces "10 seconds men... HURRY UP!!"

Trowa was mainly using his Heat Sensing Missiles and his Barrel Gun. They each exploded as Trowa kept firing at them. "Their numbers are decreasing, all we have to do is rescue Anni."

Duo was just on fire. He was slashing at each of the Dolls with his laser scythe, and trying to get near Anni as well. When the last one was destroyed he smiled and said, "Slice and Dice!"

The clock ticked one, and the thirty seconds were over. But by then, all of the Mobile Dolls had been obliterated. The only one left was Anni. She sat there, with no emotion on her face. "Master... the Mobile Dolls have been destroyed. What should I do?"

"WHAT?!" yelled Rasam.

"They have all been destroyed, and I have no weapons. What would you like me to do?"

Rasam growled. "Those damn Gundam Pilots... Taaria are you sure you have no weapons?"

"Yes."

"Than there's only one thing you have to do.... self destruct."

Taaria sat there. She stared at the screen. "Taaria? Did you hear me?" he yelled at her.

"Yes, master. I am preparing to self destruct now."
