(The Minerva pulls into the docking bay and comes to a stop)
Athrun: Have those ships left the area yet?
Operator: No sir, they're outside of the colonies airspace and they don't seem to moving at all.
Athrun: So they're just going to wait for us to leave.
(As soon as the Minerva docked, technicians start to move three different packs for the Impulse into the ship. One is a flight pack like the aile but with six wings, another is the a pack with two big rail guns and two smaller beam cannons on the shoulders. The last one is sword pack with two anti-ship beam swords)
Shin: So those are upgrade components for the Impulse right?
Technician: Yes, the Force, Blast, and Sword silhouettes. I assume you're the pilot for the Impulse.
Shin: Yeah, and what's this phase absorber thing that's equipped in the Impulse?
Technician: Well, the Impulse runs on batteries instead of a nuclear engine so we equipped with that system so it can recharge while you're inside the Minerva's phase field. The phase field acts as shield against beam weapons and strengthens the hull of the ship.
(Kira and a few other crew members disembark the ship. Athrun comes up from behind and meets him)
Athrun: Hey Kira, where are you going?
Kira: I don't know. I just need to find somewhere to clear my head.
Athrun: I see. This whole clone thing has gotten me messed up to. Standon is a pretty sick person cloning people like that.
Kira: Why would someone who hates coordinators clone someone like Rau La Crueset? Oh well, I'll see you later Athrun.
(Kira walks out of the spaceport and starts walking down the street. There are many people and children happily going about there business in the city.)
Kira: Everything is so peaceful here. I wish we could just stop all the fighting.
(Kira sees a familiar red headed girl walking through the crowd)
Kira: That can't be! Or maybe, it could be Flay!
(Kira starts running after her as she leads him down an alley)
Flay: What is it you want little mutant boy.
Kira: Flay it's me Kira. How are you here? Did Standon clone you?
Flay: I don't know what you're talking about. Standon rescued me after our shuttle was almost destroyed by you! I'll never forgive you! Being here in this colony with all these coordinators makes me sick!
(She runs off and Kira goes after her)
Kira: Wait Flay!
(Kira runs frantically through the crowd and loses sight of Flay)
Kira: Dammit!
(In space, two Alliance MS transport ships and a Agamemnon class approach the Azreal)
Standon: It's about time they arrived.
Natarle: It looks like they were successful in their mission.
Agamemnon Captain: Commander Standon I bring three ships and twenty-five mobile suits.
Standon: Excellent. Your target will be that new ZAFT ship in the main docking bay. Attack immediately and hit them with everything you have. We'll support from the rear.
Agamemnon Captain: Yes sir. All engines to combat speed. All pilots ready for MS combat.
(Alarms start going off in the Minerva as Asuran runs up to the bridge)
Athrun: What's going on?
Operator: The enemy just received reinforcements and they coming in for another attack. Two Alliance MS carriers and a Agamemnon class. Probably about twenty mobile suits.
Athrun: Launch the Guaizs and have Lt. Asuka launch with Force Impulse.
Shin: It's about time they take me seriously.
Technician: We're equipping the Force silhouette.
(The Impulse is equipped with the Force pack, beam rifle and shield)
Shin: Shin Asuka, Force Impulse launching!
(With blazing speed the Impulse shoots out of the ship and towards the horde of Blue Cosmos suits)
Shin: This thing is great!
(Shin flies around shoots down a Ginn and Daggers then he becomes overwhelmed with the numbers)
Shin: Crap! Where's my support!
Athrun: Lt. Asuka, don't attack head on. Just stay back and defend the ship.
Shin: Alright. Damn!
(A white CGue swoops down firing it's beam rifle at him)
Crueset: I won't need the Gaia for this little thing.
(Crueset starts swinging at the Impulse with his beam sword and Shin just dodges each slash)
Shin: Go away dammit!
(Shin pulls out his beam saber and they lock up in saber fight)
Crueset: This seems very familiar. I think I've seen this suit somewhere before.
(Crueset continues his relentless attack as Shin starts to run low on power)
Shin: Oh damn! He's lured me to far from the Minerva!
(A white ship approaches as Shin sees it in the corner of his eye)
Shin: Is that the Archangel?
Murrue: Ready the Variants and Gottfreid, fire!
(The Archangel fires and takes out some of the mobile suits)
Mwu: Don't worry we'll clean this mess for you.
