Disclaimer: Owning the Gundam franchise…
This is a new story of mine. Gundam Generations and SD SEED will be continued in the future though I am enjoying the hate mail for not updating them. This new story of mine that takes place during the C.E. 71 War, and then before SEED Destiny takes place. Some characters from SEED will make cameo appearances, but the story mainly focuses aroundSilent Eve, a mysterious ZAFT pilot called the Knight of December, and Hunt Nexx, a cold ZAFT ace nicknamed the Chaos of Grimaldi.
Cast:
ZAFT
Silent Eve: 19 years old; a ZAFT top gun who wears a white commander's uniform. He once fought alongside Rau Le Creuset during the Bloody Valentine incident, but now has his new job guarding the December PLANTs and Patrick Zala with the Lander Team. He has a mysterious history being the son of a now deceased PLANT council member& an unknown woman, and whose skills have earned him the name the Knight of December for fighting with only a sword in his CGUE.
George Lander: 35 years old; commander and captain of the Lander Team and the Nazca ship Narcius. He has little military experience other than guarding the PLANTs for most of his career. He completely trusts Silent's battle plans, and leaves most things to him rather than ordering around by himself. George doesn't care much for the radical ideals of Patrick Zala.
Carry Silfe: 20 years old; one of the other three pilots of the Lander Team. He wears a simple green soldier uniform, but has his own blue and white GINN Reconnaissance Type for his personal use. More or less an excellent marksman, but isn't as cocky as the other members of the Lander Team.
Pierre Layza: 20 years old; another pilot of Lander Team that is one of the three elite pilots in the team. Young and cocky, he won't hesitate to charge into battles without concern of the consequences but rather concern for killing all Naturals. He pilots a brown and gray GINN into battles. Pierre's skills have given him some aknowledgement from Patrick Zala, but still remains second to Silent and Zala's son - Athrun.
Roy Sentura: 18 years old; an elite pilot of the Lander Team that pilots a green and blue GINN. Roy was onceassociated Un No while growing up with Silent. His blue andyellow GINN is equipped with a katana and suits his and Silent's chivalrous combat style.
Elly Arton: 19 years old; crewmember of the Lander Team that assists on the bridge. She is very much constantly flirting with the pilots of the Lander Team, but is unsure herself of which one she likes the best. Her saddened history has her caring for her three-year-old daughter when not serving on the Narcius.
Hunt Nexx: 21 years old; joins the Lander Team in November of C.E. 71 when the GuAIZs first reach front lines of the war. For his exploitsin Cosmic Era 70, Hunt earned the name Chaos of Grimaldi for his devastation of Alliance forces.Like Silent, Hunt is a great enigma and that not much is in fact known about him exceptan association with Un No. Hunt wears a black ship captains outfit, which is strange considering he is a pilot and not a ship captain. Hunt pilots a custom black and red GuAIZ, he calls "Death."
Alliance
Mac Omen: 23 years old; 1st Lieutenant in the Earth Alliance and mobile armor pilot. He's upgrading to mobile suits usage however, and is very careful when flying his suit. Strangely enough, Mac is not associated with Blue Cosmos like most of his allies, and is actually from the Atlantic Federation side of the Earth Alliance. Though now using mobile suits, Mac has been designated to not use the gamma glipheptin from orders of those higher in Alliance command.
Naomi Kusanagi: 20 years old; 2nd Lieutenant in the Earth Alliance and starts off as a mobile suit pilot who once lived in Orb. She's not passionate to the Blue Cosmos cause, but would rather fight for the Alliance than the Coordinators. Her fate as a new pilot includes being subject to using the performance enhancing drugs to pilot her own Gundam. Naomi is also very compassionate about her teammates well-being, and very stubborn about protecting them.
Ian Ree: Captain of an Alliance battleship, Jockey, who follows ideals of the Blue Cosmos. He hates Coordinators with a human passion that eventually lands him a position with Neo Roanoke on the Girty Lue in C.E. 73.
Mobile Suits:
ZAFT
ZGMF-515Xs CGUE Silent Eve custom:
An enhanced CGUE that makes it far different than any normal CGUE. Cosmetically, this unit is exactly like a normal CGUE, but inside things are much different. This unit features a newly designed battery system from the students of December PLANT which cuts energy use by 90 to provide extra power. The output of the CGUE exceeds that of later GuAIZs, and the shield plus Vulcan system is replaced with a new M7079 shield-plus-35mm rail system. Silent has also re-coated his CGUE's sword with anti-beam metals for use against the Alliance's beam weapons.
ZGMF-1017 GINN Pierre Layza custom:
A brown and gray GINN used by hot-headed pilot Pierre Layza. This unit is constantly deployed with a M69 "Barrus" heavy particle cannon equipped, which is Pierre Layza's preferred weapon. Customized to Pierre's abilities, he's constantly requesting for newer model GINNs for better performance rather than enhancing his GINN; though he's declined using a CGUE, he'd prefer a GINN.
ZGMF-1017 GINN Roy Sentura custom:
A blue and yellow schemed GINN fine tuned to Roy Sentura's abilities; Roy has replaced its heavy sword with a replica of the Gerbera Straight called Gerbera Zwei, which like Silent's newly designed heavy sword, is coated with anti-beam metals. Primarily used for close combat, Roy tends to not use the heavy machine gun, and flies into battle with his katana.
ZGMF-LRR704B-S GINN Long Range Reconnaissance Type Carry Silfe custom:
Color coded white and blue, this long range GINN is used by Carry Silfe more for sniping at enemy units than scouting. The GINN's battery cap is also redesigned for using a remade sniper rifle equipped is a beam based weapon. This unit is fine-tuned to Carry's specifications.
ZGMF-600 GuAIZ Hunt Nexx custom:
A black and red colored GuAIZ that becomes the personal suit of Hunt Nexx. Because the unit is brand new and top of the line compared the GINNs of the rest of the Lander team, Hunt is yet to fully customize it; thus it is nothing has truly been changed about the unit except the color scheme.
Earth Alliance
GAT-X207-NP Blitz Gundam Non-Phase Shift Armor:
An exact recreation of the once destroyed GAT-X207 Blitz Gundam, with one missing component: Phase Shift Armor. To further enhance the stealth capabilities of the unit, the Phase Shift armor was removed to save energy for the Mirage Colloid systems. This unit is entrusted for use by Naomi Kusanagi on board the Jockey.
GAT-01A1AQM/E-X04 Gunbarrel Dagger:
Newly assigned style of dagger using the new Gunbarrel Fighter based on the Moebius Zero. This makes the Dagger capable of using the wire guided gun barrels like a Moebius Zero. Gunbarrel units are assigned to the Jockey and are the preferred Mobile Armor and mobile suit of Mac Omen.
GAT-01A1AQM/E-X01 Aile Dagger:
A newly designed Strike Dagger that uses a mass production version of the GAT-X105 Strike Gundam's Aile striker pack. This allows for increased mobility and speed for quick battles. Four of these units have been assigned to the Alliance battle ship Jockey.
Cosmic Era 71,May 15th, the Earth Alliance forces have rolled out their new mass produced Dagger mobile suits to battle Coordinator forces. At the PLANTs, newer ZAFT weapons are being made without permission by the PLANT supreme council; including GINN variations and reusing the Phase Shift armor of the stolen Alliance Gundam mobile suits. At one such PLANT, December City, defenses have been up and active since Patrick Zala became the Chairman of the PLANT Supreme Council. Leading the defense forces, a powerful and mysterious pilot called the Knight of December, waits for the war to end.
Inside the mess hall of the Narcius, Elly & Roy are sitting and eating a meal amongst the other ZAFT soldiers also eating and exchanging conversations. The door to the room opened and a figure dressed in a white uniform, slightly opened with a swordon his hipwalked into the mess hall.
The young man looked left then right and continued to walk to the meal lines. All of the other soldiers immediately moved out of his way, and gestured for him to take him meal before them. He nodded in response and got a plate bowl of rice and beef shreds with chopsticks. Turning away and then leaving the line with a glass of ice water, he looked for a seat in the room.
Elly noticed the young man and immediately nudged Roy to acknowledge him as well. She then waved him down, "hey, Silent! Come here and sit with us!" A smile grazed across her face when Silent too smiled back.
"What's going on, man?" Roy asked Silent as he took his seat across from Roy and Elly.
"Nothing as of yet. However, lunch will suffice for the highpoint of my day," Silent replied back.
"'Highpoint?' What's wrong with you, you're not eating breakfast again?" Roy continued to ask as he took another bite of his meal.
"Nah," Silent shook his head, "not with my schedule. I barely get to eat dinner."
"You should still eat, it's important to keep your energy up," Elly added.
"Thanks Elly. I'm glad to see you keeping tabs on me," Silent took a bite of his rice.
"You and about four of her other boyfriends," Roy smirked.
"Shut up," she snapped as she slugged Roy in the gut.
Roy immediately spat out his food just three inches short of hitting Silent. Amongst his coughing, he tried to speak normally, "that hurt. I was only kidding, Ell."
"Fine, I'll be nice to you then," she replied as her eyes rolled away from Roy.
"Yea…that was kinda uncalled for, Roy," Silent added before he took another bite of his rice.
"Alright, alright. Sorry Ell, was just trying to get a rise out of you."
"Just...not today Roy," she snapped back.Elly then sighed to calm herself down, and began to shake her head.
"What's wrong, Elly?" Silent asked.
Elly leaned her head forward as if she was about to cry. She shook her head again, "it's nothing that concerns you."
Silent raised an eyebrow and put down his chopsticks. "When one of my subordinates isn't doing well, I prefer to help them get over it. What is it?"
Elly hesitated again but this time picked up her head. "We're the same age, Silent, I'm not really your subordinate…but…it's…my mother's birthday today. That's all."
"Oh…I'm sorry, Elly. Didn't know-" Silent remarked as he tried to comfort her.
"It's in the past, so it doesn't concern you at all," Elly sighed.
"…was she at the Bloody Valentine?" Roy asked.
"…yea…both of them…" she started to whisper.
Silent exchanged looks with Roy. "We'll leave you alone then, sorry Ell," Roy replied.
Silent remained in his seat as Roy got up from his seat and then threw his food out. In his mind, Silent remembered the Bloody Valentine Tragedy. He closed his eyes, seeing the events; and began to hold his glass of water very tightly.
"Look out! They're using nuclear weapons!"
"All mobile suits, counterattack, mobile suits: counterattack!!"
"Commander Creuset! The Alliance is launching nuclear warheads to the PLANTs!" Silent yelled in his memory. "I'm taking them out!!"
"Don't be foolish!" Creuset responded.
As Moebius units deployed their nuclear weapons, Silent's lone CGUE - a regular one - charged directly at them. He pulled out his unit's sword and proceeded to destroy the nuclear weapons one at a time. "I have to cut them at the right spot!" Silent shouted as he charged to the missiles. One nuclear missile was already in range of Silent's strike, and he immediately sliced just below the nose of the missile, preventing it from going nuclear as it exploded. "There!" he shouted again as he cut yet another missile in the same way, neutralizing the nuclear explosion.
"More missiles! Take out the PLANTs!" Silent picked up on his communicator. Then more Moebius units deployed from Alliance ships, all armed with a nuclear missile. "FIRE!"
"More?! Cheap naturals!" Silent exclaimed as he charged to another missile and destroyed it as well. "Forget this!" Silent charged to a Moebius unit still carrying a nuclear missile; he then cut off one of the engines of the unit, sending it spiraling into other into other Moebius units. As the damaged Moebius slammed into another one, the explosion caused the missile to go into a full nuclear reaction. The blast radius took out many Moebius units and a 250-meter class Alliance ship with it. "Ha halright!" that's how it's done!"
Just below Silent's CGUE, another Moebius unit slipped right by a fired a nuclear missile at the PLANT. Right behind it was another Moebius that fried its nuclear missile towards the PLANT as well.
On Silent's monitor, indicator's flashed pointing to the missiles launched. "What?! Below?! Impossible!!" Silent screamed as he charged at the Moebius's. His CGUE immediately cut one of the Moebius's in two, killing the pilot instantly. The other Moebius stopped flying forward and slammed into Silent's CGUE. As the two metal bulks collided, they stopped in the zero gravity environment. "Nnnnooooo!" Silent screamed as he was able to throw his CGUEs sword at the nuclear missiles, hitting one and causing it to detonate nuclear. After that explosion settled, Silent could see the PLANT that he was defending collapse slightly, then explode & disintegrate from the impact and detonation of the nuclear missile. Silent slammed his fist on his cockpit controls, the force broke the controls and began frying the circuits; Silent clinched his fists and then screamed out in sorrow and agony.
Silent immediately returned to reality; and in that instant, he shattered the glass in his hand from the pressure of holding it together. The sound of the glass breaking slightly surprised Silent as he opened his hand to let the pieces fall out and water-blood mix to drip away.
"Ah…Silent…" Elly quickly said out of the surprise in the moment. She got a large napkin and put it into Silent's hands to help clean up the shattered mess that he had made. "It's okay…you don't need to be that mad about it."
"Oh…look at that," Silent was calm about the whole situation. He just spent the time cleaning his hand contemplating his own strength and emotions in the moment prior to.
After she cleaned off the shards and then most of the blood, Elly got another napkin and covered Silent's hand to stop any further bleeding. "There, there. Let's go to the medical room," she said very calmly with much caring in her voice.
"Thanks…" Silent responded.
On board the Alliance carrier Jockey, Naomi and Mac were wearing civilian clothing while overseeing the transfer of a few new mobile suits.
"So…there's that mobile suit version of your precious Moebius Zero, Mac," Naomi pointed out to him.
"Well...it's close enough. I guess losing to ZAFT has brought out the mobile suits of the Alliance at last," Mac replied.
"Yea."
"Look at that one…is that the unit that Ree was talking to you about?" Mac asked as he gestured to the sight of Gundam.
"Yea…it's one of them prototype suits. I'm supposed to test it for them in actual combat. It's a stupid plan," Naomi sighed.
"With you as it's pilot, no wonder it's a stupid plan," Mac chuckled.
"Mac, Naomi!" a voice came from behind the two. It was Ian Ree, commander aboard the Jockey.
"Sir!" Naomi and Mac immediately came to attention.
"Are you two ready to go?" Ian asked.
"Yes, sir," Mac responded.
"Yes, sir, all set," Naomi replied.
Ian then led the two to a medium sized civilian transport vessel that was docked with the Jockey. On board were several Alliance soldiers also dressed in Civilian attire; most were preparing to head out by storing objects or taking their seats. Ian stood at the door to the docking umbilicus, awaiting Naomi and Mac to come up from behind him.
"Here, these are your targets," Ian said handing them pictures of new mobile suits. "They're both hidden inside the PLANTs, so you have to be careful getting out and away."
Mac grabbed one of the pictures. He pocketed it only after barely glancing at the image. "Got it, sir."
Naomi also picked up one of the pictures. She analyzed it a little longer. "New GINNs? How are we going to go about explaining this to ZAFT?"
"We're making it look like another Serpent Tail incident. I'm sure they won't mind," Ian smirked.
"Whatever," Naomi said after "pocketing" the picture underneath her bra.
"By order of Blue Cosmos, these are for you as well, Kusanagi." Ian added while giving Naomi a small white bottle.
"More? I already have enough of these."
"These are newer versions. They'll last you longer than the others with not as bad of side effects as before." Ian explained.
"You know that I don't like doing crap for the Blue Cosmos," Naomi snapped.
"This is an order, whether you like it or not," Ian demanded.
"Yes, sir," Naomi scoffed as she took the pills. She quickly turned away from Ian and continued down the umbilicus. The door closed behind her as she didn't even look back.
Ian glared at Naomi as the door closed. "Living CPU…you may not be a Coordinator, but you sure don't want to fight them for being with the Alliance. Blue Cosmos will see to that."
The umbilicus detached from the transport vessel. The two ships then began to pull away from each other as the mysterious Alliance plan began.
Back on board the Narcius, Elly and Silent were leaving the medics room. Silent's hand was wrapped in white gauze, with Elly's trying to comfort it further. Silent was still slightly surprised at Elly's reaction towards his accident; and Elly only seemed to have Silent's health on her mind.
"Oh…you poor thing…" Elly whispered as she continued to rub Silent's hand.
"You don't have to make me feel cute about pain," Silent replied.
"I meant your hand, not you."
Silent quickly scoffed. "Thanks…"
"What's going on here?" Roy asked from right in front of Silent and Elly.
"Roy!" Elly was startled at first.
"Jeez man, where'd you come from?" Silent asked back to Roy.
Roy only analyzed Elly holding Silent's hand. "Oh, I see how it is. You don't have to paint me a picture about this stuff." Roy turned away and walked down the hall.
"Roy," Silent snapped, "it's not that! Roy!" Silent chased after Roy, and grabbed his shoulder.
"Yo! Get off me!" Roy snapped back. "I'm leaving you two alone, if you two are now gonna be, I won't get in your way."
"Roy! What the hell is with you? I got cut in my hand, and she's just treating me nicely, okay?" Silent explained.
"Sure, I believe you," Roy rolled his eyes. "You know, among the things you, me, and Lowe learned from Un No is that you never close your allies, let alone friends."
Silent could only sigh at Roys quick remark. "Elly and I are not together!"
Elly exhaled slightly with disappointment heavy in her breathing. She clenched her fist, and closed her eyes as she bowed her head to not see Roy and Silent arguing. She then shook her head as the two continued to argue amongst themselves.
"Why are you so stubborn about this? We're not with each other!" Silent scolded.
"Fine! Sorry, okay?!" Roy stammered back.
"Look, Roy, though fraternization in ZAFT isn't really looked highly upon, you should just come out and say what you want to say," Silent pointed out, "especially to her," Silent glanced to Elly. She was nearly ready to cry about the recent events.
Roy felt slightly hurt and disappointed within himself. "Elly..." he tried to explain. She actually looked up to see both Silent and Roy. "Elly...I...really like you and..."
"I already know Roy...it's just I'd rather be...alone for now," Elly explained.
"Okay...just needed to get that out," Roy bowed to both Silent and Elly. "I'm going on standby inside the PLANT now, see you two later."
"Right, I'm going on standby soon too. Later Roy!" Silent bowed back to Roy and waved to him when he left the corridor. "You know life is hard for you Elly, why is it that you won't accept help from others?"
"I lied...Silent..." Elly sighed.
"About what?"
"Just...look, can you come with me to pick up my girl?" Elly asked with a smile.
"...?" Silent was quite confused. "What's the occasion?"
"I just want to talk to you about some stuff, that's all."
Silent nodded in agreement and the two walked down the corridor and left the ship.
The transport vessel carrying Naomi and Mac soon docked with the PLANT. The other soldiers on the vessel redied their smaller hand-weapons underneath their clothing and Naomi and Mac did the same. After placing her hand weapon on "safe" and attached it on her hip underneath her dress, Naomi pulled the picture out from her bra. Mac was watching her pull it out.
"If you wanted some, all you had to do is ask," Naomi said not even looking up at Mac. She continued to examine the picture of the GINN.
"We'll get to that someday," Mac chuckled. He wasn't serious about liking Naomi, it was just that instant reaction he naturally had for her. "Still, new GINNs...ZAFT can't make anything else it seems."
Naomi continued to analyze the GINN. It was brown and gray colored GINN High Maneuver Type. "Well, the GINN is their best model. You can't blame them for that, but by all acounts, our Dagger units easily out-match the old GINN."
"Hmph," Mac gestured. He quickly pulled out his picture and analyzed it as well. He waved the picture slightly as if bored in his hand. "This will be a challenge, but I know that it won't be that difficult to accomplish."
The transport vessel fully docked with the PLANT, and the main doors opened. The Alliance soldiers all stood up and walked off into the PLANT naturally as if nothing was wrong. Naomi and Mac blended in well with the other soldiers dressed as civilians. As they approached the exit, one ZAFT soldier stopped them; one of the soldiers flashed an ID card for the whole group that read "Maius City PLANT." The soldier immeditaely excused the group and then allowed them to pass.
The Alliance group soon arrived at a kind of hotel and then checked into three rooms. All of the men had to share two of the rooms while Naomi recieved her own. They decided to rest for a while and wait until night in the PLANT before carrying out the mission assigned to them.
About an hour later, walking throughout the quiet suburban streets of December was Silent with Elly and a young three-year old girl wearing a small pink&light-blue outfit washolding Elly's hand. Amongst the occasional chuckling and smiles with the young girl, Silent and Elly were still somewhat thinking about something else.
"Hey Elly, what is it that you were going to tell me?" Silent asked as they turned the street corner.
Elly raised her eyebrows, "huh?" She shifted her eyes away at first then back to Silent. "Uhh..."
"You said something about how you were lying about something?" Silent raised one of his eyebrows.
"That thing...well...it's just that I lied about wanting to be alone right now," she said as they turned another corner and stopped in front of small ZAFT apartment housing.
"You'd rather not be alone? Why would you lie about something like that?" Silent asked.
"Because...I'd rather just be with you..."
Silent was as his name - silent. The only thing breaking the quiet moment was Elly's daughter laughing and playingwithSilent's sword. Silent opened his mouth, as if about to say something to Elly's statement.
She then moved closer to him, and put her finger over his mouth, telling him not to say anything. "...I'd love for you to stay over, and be with me and Ala. Please?" she asked with a slight plea.
Silent only smiled with a slight sigh. "...if it'll help comfort you and feel better..."
Later that night, inside the ZAFT base at the PLANT, the Alliance soldiers invaded swiftly and very quietly. Mac and Naomi led a small team towards one of the main facilities, killing the gaurds quietly as they approached. The facility that they were headed to was a large mobile suit dock with the two new GINN high-maneuver types - one colored blue and yellow, the other gray and brown.
"There they are," Naomi said pointing at one of the units. She was dressed in an all black, longsleeve outfit. "I'll take one, you can take the other Mac," Naomi ordered.
"Yes, ma'am," Mac nodded. His attire was similar as well to Naomi's. "The rest of you, prepare to get out immediately and-"
"-hey! What do you think you're doing?!" a voice came from behind the Alliance troops.
"They're stealing the GINNs! Sound the Alarm-" the other voice yelling was silenced by a single gun shot.
"Damn!" Naomi said lowering her rifle, "rest of you, move out now!! Mac get in the blue one!!" The alarm sounded throughout the whole base, and ZAFT soldiers began to sparcely arrive at the facility.
On board the Narcius, George Lander was sitting drinking a small cup of coffee when the alarm sounded off on the bridge. ZAFT soldiers began scrambling onto the main bridge assuming combat positions.
"What's happening? What's wrong out there?!" George shouted as he almost slammed down his coffee.
"Sir, storage facility is under attack!" one soldier reported.
"The high-mobility GINNs are being hijacked!" another soldier replied.
"Full Emergency Status! Gather our pilots, and have them launch in the PLANT!!" George ordered.
"Sir!"
"Contact the Zala residence! Have the chairman moved to secure area immediately!!" George continued to shout.
"Yes, sir!!"
"Where's our pilots?!" George yelled.
"Sir! Pierre Layza and Carry Silfe are getting to their GINNs as we speak, sir!"
"Alright. Where's Silent and Roy?! And...where the hell's Elly and the rest of my combat crew?!" George began to snap.
"Sir, Roy is being called back now, sir!"
"Sir, Silent is missing and Elly is currently at her residence, sir!"
"Patch me through to Elly's quarters, now!" George ordered.
"Sir! Connecting now!"
George picked a phone-like device. He awaited for the phone to be picked up on the other line.
"...Hello?" a female voice grogilly answered.
"Elly?" George inquired.
"Captain George, sir..." she answered still a little groggy.
"There's an emegency on the base! We need you to get over here, now!"
"...Yes, sir..." Elly said still slightly groggy.
"One more thing, before you get here, Elly," George began to inquire again, "Do you know where Silent is?!"
Elly paused for a second. "He's right here..."
She rolled over - nude - in her bed, and handed to phone to Silent. He was laying down looking at the ceiling with his hands behind his head. "Captain?" Silent asked. Elly just nodded in acknowledgement as Silent grabbed the phone. She placed her head on his chest and he began to stroke her hair as he started talking, "what's up, Captain?"
"The PLANT is under attack. Someone's trying to steal the new GINNs!" George shouted from the other end.
"What? Now?" Silent had a slightly surprised look on his face.
"We need all our pilots to launch out now before the GINNs are stolen!!"
"Yes, sir." Silent continued to stroke Elly's hair, "we'll be there as soon as possible!"
"...don't take too long," George chuckled.
"Sir!" George hung up the phone and looked at Elly in her eyes. "We both gotta go," he sighed. "Bring Ala with us to the Narcius, and have her hang around in my room," he said with a smile.
"Is the ship really a safe place for a kid in an emergency?" Elly asked.
"It's a Vesalius-class. Chances of the Narcius getting destroyed is low, especially with me defending it..."
Elly shared a small smile with Silent as they kissed again and then got out of the bed. The two donned their uniforms, and as Silent was attaching his sword to his belt Elly picked up Ala and was ready to move out.
Back at the ZAFT facility, several of the Alliance soldiers were trying to escape but found themselves being shot and killed in action. More and more ZAFT soldiers were running into the facility, taking action against their enemies. Suddenly a giant shot was fired. A large explosion rocked the facility leaving a large hole in the walls. Amongst the smoke of the debris and sounds of gunshots and screams, two GINNs stood up.
"There! That's where the action is, Carry!" Pierre pointed out in his GINN.
"Roger. Targets verified!" Carry confirmed. The two pilots flew their GINNs towards to facility that was under attack.
"Two main targets," George relayed to his pilots, "GINN High-maneuver types. Engage and destroy only if necessary! Disabling the units and PLANT stability are higher priority!"
"Right, right! Got it! Bastards are stealing our new GINNs, Carry!" Pierre shouted.
"No kidding, commensing hostilities!" Carry yelled back.
"Silent will be joining you as soon as possible, hold out 'till then!!" George ordered out.
"We won't need Silent to get this mission done!!" Pierre shouted as he opened fire with his Barrus heavy particle weapon.
The two high-maneuver GINNs immediately moved out of the way. The shot hit and desintegrated a portion of the facility. Carry then began to open fire, taking one shot at a time with his sniper rifle to the blue & yellow GINN. Pierre's unit tried to touch down onto the ground but was immediately tackled by the brown & gray GINN.
"Damn! My own unit too, shit!!" Pierre screamed.
"Mac, let's get outta here!" Naomi shouted.
"Hold on!" Mac yeled back. He cut Carry's sniper rifle in two and then kicked Carry's GINN into a nearby building. "Let's get outta here!" The two GINNs then moved out towards one of the PLANTs space docks.
"Where the hell's SILENT!!" Pierre shouted.
As the two new GINNs then moved out onto the space dock, theyonly encountered few ZAFT soldiers trying to shoot them down. Naomi and Mac disregarded the small fries and continued to move into the space dock.
"Good, he's all set to go. Captain, we're ready to launch!" Elly relayed to George.
After George nodded in acknowledgement, the Narcius left its dock from the PLANT and then headed into space.
"Predicted course of enemy units, ready," Elly continued to relay.
"All hands, full combat status!" George ordered to all decks of the Narcius.
"You won't get away!! Knight of December, launching!!" Silent yelled as his CGUE launched off from the Narcius.
The two GINNs moved out into space and then detected something on radar. A solid shell round moving at incredible speed passed right by them. It was a slug round fired by Silent's CGUE, which was closing in on the two units.
"Mac," Naomi ordered as the two dodged another shot, "get back to the Jockey! I'll take care of this!!"
"No! Your glipheptin's gonna wear off soon!" Mac shouted back.
"Get going!" Naomi screamed as he began to open fire on Mac too. As Mac's unit sped away, Naomi prepared to engage Silent. "Let's see if you can keep up, coordinator!"
To two commensed combat. Naomi opened fire with her GINN's experimental assault rifle. Silent's CGUE dashed upward, then down and to the left. He then moved into a quick position and fired another slug round at Naomi. She too dodged out of the way and returned fire. The two units continued to dance in the stars, firing and dodging at each others shots.
"Enough of this! See you later!" Naomi taunted as he turned away. Her unit then fired up it's verniers and sped away at near maximum speed.
"Nice try..." Silent said as he immediately began typing in his CGUEs main operating system. "...Time to use every last thing I've got..."
"Silent, what are you doing?" Elly asked on the communicator.
"Going into overdrive!" he shouted back as he took off. His CGUE was moving faster than Naomi's high-maneuver GINN, and catching up.
"What? No way!" Naomi screamed as he saw the CGUE charging up.
"No GINN can surpass my CGUE!!" To units engaged in combat again. Silent pulled out his CGUEs sword and began trying to attack Naomi.
Naomi tried to defend herself with her GINN's sword. Her defense failed when Silent's sword plowed through her sword. Naomi then boosted back to dodge any new incomming attacks. Suddenly her GINN started slowing down.
"What the hell's happening?!" she screamed. Flashing lights in her cockpit displayed an image on her viewscreen. The message read: Battery Life: 00:01:07. "Running out of power, impossible!!"
Silent immediately noticed the GINNs slowing rate or movement. "Ha, you're loosing power!"
"Who the hell are you?!" Naomi shouted to Silent through the communicator. She then clenched her stomache in pain, "...n-no...not now...!"
Silent remained quiet as he grabbed a hold of the GINN and then took off back to the PLANT.
