Chapter 3: Encounters and betrayals.

Kira Yamato started heading for the mysterious Mobile Suit which had come to their aid, and looked at its two passengers. First was the young man with tossed brown hair in a black blue and white combat space suit, his eyes where blank you could sense almost nothing about him except for the scent of blood, and the fact that all of his expression talked of someone who knew far more of things than was apparent at first sight, and second was the young girl who had by the looks of it long blonde hair and was smiling almost in direct contrast to his companion, but Kira Yamato also realized after looking well to the young woman, that she was someone who irradiated enormous power, just a small gaze from her, and he almost fell attracted to her almost beyond his will, but willingly at the same time, she was someone who had the power to change people, and obviously knew how to do it easily.

"You must be the pilot of that Mobile Suit" stated Heero Yuy in his monotone voice, and Kira also realized that from the moment in which he had first spoken to him his voice level had never really changed it was always neutral, never even giving a sign of emotions anywhere.

"Yes, I am" stated Kira softly, yet firmly.

"Very well" said Heero and immediately started for the crew of the Archangel who had gathered outside the ship.

"Wait? won't you at least give me your name? I'm Kira Yamato" said Kira as he approached the pilot of the other Mobile suit.

Heero Yuy just looked at Kira, and little afterward he looked at Relenna who simply bowed her head "My name is Heero Yuy" and Heero just continued on to the crew of the Archangel not even glancing back.

"Don't take it personally" said Relenna "he is like that with everyone, oh by the way I am Relenna Darlian Yuy, nice to meet you" and she stretched her hand towards Kira Yamato.

"Hu o yeah, nice to meet you too" said Kira and he stretched Relennas hand feeling at peace just by being around this girl.

"It's not that I criticize the help, but I would really like to know who the new guy is, and who built his Mobile Suit" said commander La Flaga looking at the entire crew.

"Yes I would like to know as well" stated commander Ramius looking at the two Mobile Suits, one grayish black, and the second one still with its colors on.

"Well I guess we will soon find out" stated chief Murdock as he saw Heero Yuy walking in their direction with Kira Yamato and Relenna peacekraft behind.

Heero Yuy approached the group and sized them all before speaking taking in all he could, not missing any detail, and soon he headed towards the woman, who was clearly by everyone's posture the commanding officer. "You must be the captain I presume?" asked Heero to a very bewildered Murrue Ramius.

"Yes, yes I am captain Murrue Ramius of the Battleship Archangel" said Murrue Ramius, well aware, that she had not said Earth Alliance, and clearly somewhat taken a back by this mans capacity for seeing, he had come to her almost as if he knew that she was the captain of the vessel.

"I am Heero Yuy, I am the pilot of the Mobile Suit which came to your aid" stated Heero Yuy, and immediately went to commander La Flaga, who was extremely suspicious and worried for the whole situation.

"You must be the senior officer, am I wrong?" said Heero Yuy to commander La Flaga who was even more worried now than before.

"Yes I am the senior officer aboard the Archangel, how did you know?" asked commander La Flaga, expecting to learn how he had singled him out as the senior officer and Murrue Ramius as the captain and not have messed them up.

"You are the only one who really knows the color of battle" stated Heero and with that simply turned back and headed for Kira and Relenna.

"Wait, what does that mean?!!!" yelled commander La Flaga towards Heero Yuy, but Heero Yuy simply looked back at him and shrugged back, and was quickly back on his way towards Kira Yamato and Relenna Darlian leaving a very confused and bewildered commander La Flaga behind.

Soon he catched Kira and Relenna and without saying nothing simply went to escorting Kira Yamato, who was very confused with Heero Yuys attitude and actions, but not for long, for now he knew that the others wanted to speak with him.

"I know that you have a lot of questions, and I myself have a lot of question, but now is not the time to ask or answer them" said Kira Yamato to all of his friends and companions "I just ask you that you not do anything with my mobile suit, it was entrusted to me so I will take care of it, I don't want the Earth Forces learning any of its secrets" said Kira Yamato without really looking towards his friends, and thinking of the moment he had received his Freedom Gundam from Lacus Clyne.

"Very well we understand" said Murrue Ramius "anyways, welcome back Kira" and she extended her hand towards the young coordinator who quickly took it smiling and soon they all where over Kira asking him what had happened to him since he had been lost in the Islands near Orb.

A short time afterwards the 2 Mobile Suits stood side by side, and Heero was working inside, when Kira Yamato appeared.

"Hey hu thanks, you where very helpful back there" said Kira very enthusiastically.

Heero Yuy simply looked at Kira for a second then continued working on the Wing Zero.

"A a a very impressive Mobile Suit, who build it?" asked Kira wanting to know more about this machine.

"I did" said Heero and continued working again on his laptop.

"What? No way, you couldn't have built this by yourself?" stated Kira, and Heero simply kept on typing and said "I did no design it however" said Heero and with that he kept on working, but Kira was not yet finished not by a long shot.

"So what is this Mobile Suit made of?, what powers it?" Kira really wanted to know things about this unknown suit, especially since he noticed that in all the battle this Mobile Suit hadn't been shot no even once for the armor wasn't even dented.

Heero Yuy closed his laptop and looked directly at Kira Yamato with a stare that could melt steel, and Kira Yamato responded in kind. Then Heero spoke "You have your secrets about your Mobile Suit, I have mine" he said and started to leave, but Kira Yamato was not satisfied, he needed to know, this Mobile Suit looked far more powerful then even his and his was state of the art, all of this would simply nag at him ,and he knew that he needed to know al he could about this Mobile Suit and its pilot for whatever may come.

"Very well I will tell you about my Mobile Suit in exchange for the information on your Mobile Suit" said Kira just as Heero was about to leave "but this must stay between the two of us"

"Very well" said Heero, and he returned to the cockpit of the Wing Zero, and closed the cockpit "Start"

"My Mobile Suit is the ZGMF-X10A Freedom, it is a top secret Mobile Suit developed by the ZAFT forces under orders form the current chairman of the Plants" said Kira and took a breath "The Freedom is equipped with an N-jammer canceller, which allows the Freedom to use a nuclear engine as an energy source for all of its systems including the Phase Shift armor, and the multiple weapons systems on board the Freedom" Kira Yamato finished his explanation and looked at Heero, his expression as always unreadable.

"What kind of weapons does the Freedom have installed?" asked Heero in his usual monotone

Kira Yamato sighed, he didn't want to tell this guy anything, but he seemed very trustworthy, and even though he really didn't trust him, he knew that he at the very least would uphold his end of the deal, so Kira explained "The Freedom is equipped with one high energy beam rifle, 2 CIWS guns on the shoulders, 2 beam saber on the hips, 2 plasma cannons stored in the wings, 2 rail guns in the hips under the beam saber and one defense shield" Kira Yamato finished, and knew that his time had come "I have told you everything, now I expect you to fulfill your end of the deal" said Kira finally glaring at Heero who simply stared at him and just closed his eyes for a second.

"Very well, my Mobile suit is the XXXG-0W00 or Wing Zero, this is the most powerful Mobile Suit built where I come form-"

"Where you come from?" asked Kira Yamato interrupting Heero Yuy

If Heero was bothered he certainly knew how not to show it "I agreed to exchange the information of our machines, however I did not agree to anything else" said Heero Yuy glaring at Kira Yamato.

"Very well continue" said Kira.

"As I was saying, my Mobile Suit is the most powerful where we come from, it was built with gundanium alloy" said Heero and paused, knowing that Kira will ask what that meant.

"Gundanium alloy?" asked Kira.

"Gundanium alloy is a very advanced alloy which can only be manufactured in space due to its extreme properties, for it is nearly immune to kinetic attacks and is an electrically neutral alloy, which has the ability of blocking or dissipating most energy based attacks" finished Heero, and continued "also the Wing Zero has a two high powered buster rifles, and before you ask the buster rifles are the large guns on my Mobile Suit, they are particle based weapons, as are the gatling guns on the shoulders, and the machine guns on the wing holders and It also has 2 beam blades on the shoulder holders. And it is powered by a micro fusion reactor." Heero Yuy finally finished, but knowingly omitted the information of the Zero system, for it was better that no one knew of that system.

"A micro fusion reactor?" asked Kira Yamato clearly impressed.

"Yes that is what I said" answered Heero Yuy in his usual monotone.

"But that is impossible!" cried Kira Yamato not believing what he had just heard "the smallest fusion reactors that exist are those installed on warships, and those are bigger than our mobile suits, and you come here telling me that your Mobile Suit is equipped with a micro fusion reactor" continued Kira still not believing what he had heard.

"You asked me about my Mobile Suit I told you, it is up to you to believe me" said Heero Yuy to Kira Yamato looking even more intently at him, but not showing any emotion.

Kira Yamato looked hardly at Heero Yuy who showed no emotion, something which was unnerving Kira Yamato, for he could not decipher anything from this pilot "Very well, thank you very much" and with that Kira prepared to leave.

"If you keep on being so soft to your enemies, they will simply come back" said Heero Yuy

"Hmm" said Kira Yamato without looking back and just left.

"Well, what did you get?" asked commander Mu La Flaga to Kira Yamato as got nearer.

"All I can tell you is that it the name of that Mobile Suit is Wing Zero" said Kira Yamato and kept walking.

"Wait, what about its weapons, or who build it?" asked captain Ramius, for she was the one who told Kira to find out.

"I can't tell you I promised him to keep t a secret" answered Kira and with that he left, leaving to very worried people behind.

-The situation is worst than I thought, this world is immersed in a nearly genocidal war- thought Relenna Darlian Yuy as she kept on looking the reports and news briefs she could access. "What are we going to do Heero?" said Relenna and she closed her eyes. In the cold of her mind only battle and death where present, but amidst all that there was a light, and in there stood 2 people, of which she only recognized one of them Kira Yamato.
