Kira the Knight Ch4 – Flay's New Gundam
"It's Here! It's here! Kira Get up come look!" Flay said almost giddily Her mobile suit had finnaly arrived she was the first to figure out what she wanted and thus they started on hers first. Now that it was here it was time for her training to begin she had refused to train with anything else but her own mobile suit. So that way there'd be no adjusting or habits to break and no assumptions about it capabilities.
Kira got up half dazed... "Wha?....Flay it's 3:00 in the morning...can't we wait till you know sunrise?" he asked
"nooooo I wanna Pilot it now!" She whined her first time piloting a mobile suit was so close she could taste it and Kira most certainly was not going to stop her though she wished he'd come.
Kira sighed
"alright...alright...I'm up..." he said getting up and putting on some clothes. Then they headed out to the hangar together to inspect the new gundam. They were met by a mechanic who seemed to be working hard on putting on the finishing touches.
"Ah there you are Miss Allister Your suit is all ready to go for it's first test flight it's got everything you asked for No weapons which I thought was odd Untill I found out about those special enhacements to the hands you wanted....and the armor is as light as possible while still being enough to protect you in the event of taking a hit. Also the shield you wanted is also there." He said
"Thank you...for all your hard work Kira's going to show me how to pilot it now." She said Kira went over to the white and Blue suit it seemed to be utterly defenseless. and it had a pair of what looked like wings on it like the firebird gundam
"Uh Flay how do you expect to fight without any weapons?" Kira asked
She giggled "easy the hands have the ability to emit beam shots so I don't need a gun to fight also the generator core inside should allow me to manipulate the energy in ways most people never dreamed of." She said
"Wow...that's quite a Innovation Flay What do you call it?" Kira asked
"hm...how about Angelic Gundam?" Flay said
"Sounds perfect based on what this thing can do...Mind if I pilot it once? So I can get a feel for it and tell ya how it works?" Kira asked.
"Of course go ahead Kira." Flay said
Kira Hopped in and let the guys know he was launching He headed out to try out the suits abilities. It took a little while to figure out how exactly to fire the beams from the hands but he figured it out eventually
"wow this would make clearing a battlefield easy...and look effortless." Kira said to himself as he maneuvered the suit firing beams to no where. It wasn't long before he began trying to manipulate the energy his first accomplishment was forming a buble of beam energy around the hands next he created small balls of beam energy and launched them in blast waves.
"Yea you could defineately clear a battlefield with this..." He said He fooled around with it for another hour before taking it back so Flay could get to know her mobile suit. They spent hours upon hours practicing Flay didn't take too long to learn the basics and master them her new abilities as a coordinator were quite helpful to her here. When they finnaly returned to the bay Athren and Commander La Kluze were waiting.
"I see you've had some time training." La Kluze Said as Flay exited her gundam.
"yes Kira has shown me the basics but I suppose it's still up to me to figure out the complicated stuff." She said
"Well yes your gundam is unique Different from any other there's bound to be things you can do with it that no one else can do with their mobile suit." La Kluze said
"I understand I'll do my best to learn to use it to it's full potential" She said.
As Kira came around Athren stopped him
"Kira our gundams won't be here until next week at earliest...However our old ones are fully operational right now. So we can head out if we need to I thought you might like to know since Flay has her suit now and I know you won't want her heading out alone." Athren said
"Thanks for letting me know...I'll be in my room....sleeping If something happens wake me." Kira said and with that he was off to catch up on the rest he'd been robbed of.
An hour or so later the base found itself under attack.
"Vengence and Firebird Are attacking the base sir!"
"send out Angelic Gundam immediately!" Was La Kluze's order he wanted to see if Flay could really hold her own or if she was just a wannabe Pilot....
Flay was standing in front of the Angelic Gundam when the orders came
"Flay Allister you are to launch in Angelic Gundam and engage the enemy until Strike and Aegis can be scrambled as well." Were La Kluze's orders.
"yes sir" She said and launched. She came out into a small sort of hell it seemed none of the ginn's could last more than 3 seconds She was still getting her bearings on the battlefield when Vengence took notice of her.
"well well what have we here? A new little gundam come out to be crushed?" Sai said he charged the new challenger head on
"Fool a head on attack is certain death..." Flay said she readied herself and ducked the Vengance's attempt to bear hug her as it went past she slid her hand across it's side leaving a gaping hole.
"How the?" Sai said then opened Comunications he wanted to know who this pilot was.
"Who are you? I want to know who I kill when I kill a worthy opponent" he said
"Why Sai...don't you recognize me?" Flay replied.
Sai sat there in shock
"yes that's right Sai it's me...Flay I'm not surprised because Kira told me you became a pilot yes I know all about what happened and now Sai...now your going to have to pay for trying to kill Kira....you see he can't die on me." Flay said turning the Angelic Gundam around to face Vengance. She charged him ready to end his part in this battle as he stood there frozen still shocked it was her of all people. But before she got to him Firebird stopped her starting an onslaught of blade attacks.
"Hmph I don't care who you are! You're going to die today! Just who do you think you are coming out here with no weapons?!" Cagalli yelled
"Well well...another familiar voice...your that girl..." Flay said she countered Firebirds assault by using the energy bubble trick Kira had shown her using this she was able to not only block the blades hell she could grab them if she wanted to. Flay took advantage of the fact Cagalli was enraged and attacking sloppily she tried hard to remember what Kira had taught her but it was so much more difficult in an actual battle she slipped up and one of Firebirds blades found itself lodged right next to the cockpit. Flay let out a small gasp of fear she thought she was a goner.
Just then Strike and Aegis launched.
"KIRA!!!!!" Sai screamed As he saw the Strike he charged it stupidly blindly.
"Sai....." Kira said as Vengance bore down on the Strike Kira drew his saber and slashed. It cut Vengance but didn't stop it It kept coming and Tackled the Strike and prceeded to beat the holy hell out of it
"HOW COULD YOU! HOW COULD YOU TURN HER AGAINST ME!" Sai screamed as tears flowed freely.
Athren wanted to go back and help but Firebird had turned it's attention to him and made sure he didn't interfere. This time instead of Kira being the one to snap it was Flay.
"kira...no......NOOOOOOOOOOOOO I WON'T LET YOU HURT HIM!" She screamed she flew the Angelic Gundam in between Firebird and Vengance then formed a ball of energy around the entire Angelic gundam then released a blast wave that blew Vengance off the Strike and Firebird away from the Aegis then she followed up by Rushing Sai and giving the Vengance a taste of it's own medicine Pummeling it and tossing it around eventually Sai had enough
"Cagalli lets fall back for now we need the Major for this." He said starting to head back
"agreed..." Cagalli said taking off Flay started to chase them but Kira stopped her
"Flay...you were great...." Kira said.
"Kira are you okay?" She asked
"yea....just a little beat up..." He laughed at his own stupid joke.
"Stop it that's not funny......I was really worried he hurt you..." She said.
The strike rose from it's half buried position in the sand. And stumbled back into the hangar followed by the Aegis and Angelic Gundam.
Kira exited last and then they saw why he was bloodied Sai had hurt him badly they rushed him to the infirmary where it was revealed he had many internal injuries and a small concussioun probably caused by all the bouncing around that would have come from the Vengance with all it's weight and power Bashing the Frame of the Strike.
"....you...you'll pay for this Sai...I promise you....i wanted to avoid hurting you before but now.....now we are enemies until death." Flay said in a deathly whisper her rage apparent to all who were near her.
Mean while back on the Archangel
"Damn...They'll pay for the damage they've done....I'll get Kira for what he's done..." Sai said
"Sai......stop your rambling and come to bed. The Major is taking care of things now..." came Cagalli's voice from the bed
Sai lightened a little... "coming hun.." He said and went off to bed with his still somewhat new lover.
