Phase 7- The Red Eye Warrior

Atlantic Federation Vorga Base, that morning

On the waters of the Pacific, and the shores of Washington, Giyre and Earth Alliance troops met in a massive battle. Warships of all kinds sailed along the waves, deploying more Mobile Suits and firing off all weaponry they had at their foes. From the ocean Giyre attacked with Zaft regiments of Goohns and Ginn Wasps, and in the air Blackhawks and Ales were raining down onto the coast of the major Earth Forces base.

But the Atlantic Troops, even when outnumbered, continued to fight on with all their might holding off all that came at them with lines of Strike Rogues. Their twin 120 millimeter Chain Guns were all unloading more bullets than a person could hope to count, sending the sprays of fire into the lines of Giyre troops. Skygraspers flew on like hawks, dodging all they could and retaliating with every beam, cannon and gun that was attached to their bodies. Even desperate groups of Rollers slowly moved ahead close to the front line, their shoulder cannons constantly sending more blasts off into the distance, only adding to the chaos of the enormous battle.

"Lieutenant Likoal, back-line Giyre troops are retreating from the battlefield, and all forces up ahead are slowly backing off" a communicator announced from his computer in the control room of the base. The military official, Lieutenant Likoal, quickly turned from the large table-lay map in the middle of the room, and looked out the main window.

"So I see…" he replied, noticing the masses of Giyre troops leisurely falling back against all Earth Forces fire. He sighed with relief. "Well, we've managed to hold out again…but can we manage another attack…?".

"Lieutenant, Captain Handas reports that we've lost half of our troops" another communicator stated. Likoal's sigh this time was a bit different.

"Great, we lost half during the first assault, so now we're down to only a quarter of our original forces" the man said.

"What should we do sir?" a Corporal asked. As the Lieutenant held a hand over his eyes, he remained silent, thinking deeply for what his answer should be. No one said anything during his pause, certainly not wishing to aggravate him, but more importantly due to their suspense to hear what his reply would be.

"Send a message to the Headquarters in Colorado, we need back up, now" Likoal declared.


Atlantic Federation Colodonia Base

As the afternoon rolled on, more battling was commencing, this one taking place on the shores of Oregon, outside of the city of North Bend, at a strong Earth Alliance Base. Though today it proved to be inferior to the Giyre forces that arrived, barley able to hold off any of the attacking lines. Even with their best Mobile Suits, the Strike Rogues and M1 Astrays, the sheer amount of Giyre troops overwhelmed them, and given that they had the three Gundams on their side made the fight much easier for them.

A wave of Blackhawks soared over the docks, blowing apart every last Moebius that hopelessly tried to stand in their way. With their 130 millimeter machine guns shooting every last bullet, and their Falcon-Class Rocket Launcher firing explosive after explosion, their flew over the entire harbor, tearing through any enemy lines and creating a line of blasts across the area that wrecked the docks.

Meanwhile more lines of Ales were flying off from the Pilarldo Class Warships they were held in. Rich-green in color, and with a finely created suit of the titanium armor, the Mobile Suits were some of the best Giyre had in their military. Flying in large groups, they stormed onto the further shore of the base, every single one letting off with their 77 millimeter Forna Beam Rifles. All Mobile Suits, Mobile Armors, stationary weaponry and even buildings that were struck exploded in an instant, the powerful beam cutting straight through them and creating the detonation next. All that survived the first onslaught were quickly demolished as the Ales landed, torn apart at the hands of their YPS Beam Sabers.

But as expected, it was the trio of Gundams that were doing the most damage, and proving to be the absolute strongest things on the battlefield at the moment. The Titan and the Double Edge flew together in the sky, making a deadly team as they wiped out everything in their path. Nitras had his Gundam blowing apart all opposition on the ground with a powerful Energy Blaster Bomb Cannon, a weapon that fired off golden spheres of pure energy. At the same time the explosions wrecked more of the base, including several large buildings. Aiding to him was Sakara in the Titan, taking out all enemies in the sky around with the help of his thick war-hammer.

Eventually though he landed onto the roads of the base, and had the Titan aim its 170mm Chain Gun at an entire line of Rollers and Strike Rogues. In an instant the barrel was spinning, unloading an incredible spray of bullets that struck the forces head on. The ammunition tore through the heavily armored machines like paper, completely ripping them apart to causing them to explode from damages inside.

"Hell yeah! It's been too long since I've been able to raise hell with this puppy!" Sakara yelled with a wide grin from inside his cockpit. After nearly thirty seconds of non-stop fire, his chain gun ran out of ammo, and about ten Earth Alliance Mobile Suits still stood in tact. Before he could reload, the Double Edge flew clear past him, its twin blades mounted.

"Lemme take care of those guys" Nitras said.

"Sure thing man" Sakara replied. The Double Edge came at the enemies in a flash, sending its blades slicing and dicing all around as he moved from foe to foe with amazing speed. With each swipe he cut one of them clear in half, until all were destroyed in a ball of fire of their own.

"Alright good, now all we have to do is destroy the control center and we should be done" Nitras stated.

"And that's my job" Uusiko abruptly answered as he came into the area with the Bloodfire, its white beam sabers just finished with ripping apart entire groups of Moebiuses. On its shoulders, two extensions opened up into circular shape, and in the middle of glowed a bright red light.

"We better stand back for this one" Sakara said with a smirk. The extensions on the Bloodfire then shot out a huge beam of fiery energy each, straight at the control complex of the Colodonia Base. A massive explosion wiped it off the face of the Earth in mere seconds, taking some dozens of buildings and enemy machines with it in the process.

"Oh yeah! That's how we do it!" Uusiko exclaimed, very pleased by the devastating results. As Nitras smiled, a screen with the visual of one of the squad leaders then appeared on his screen.

"Ensign Dolorga, we report that all barracks are destroyed, and any troops we didn't get have retreated into the hills" he heralded.

"Perfect" Nitras simply replied, "Our mission here is complete, let's head back to the base" he stated to all pilots.

"Hey wait! We can't let our enemies make it away safely, let's chase after 'em all and take 'em down!" another solider cried. Nitras's eyes narrowed.

"Our mission was to only destroy the control center and all barracks of this base. The entire place is useless now, and we've completely wrecked the area along with the majority of their forces. We have no orders to destroy any enemies that retreat. As the leader of this operation, I order all ships and Mobile Suits to follow me back to the Headquarters" the young Dolorga severely explained, shocking the soldier that last spoke, and all others, "now let's head out!". With that the Double Edge's boosters were turned back on, and the Gundam took off into the sky, heading away from the base and in the direction of their base. Quickly following him were Uusiko and Sakara, and then soon the rest of the troops.

"Way to show him who's boss" Uusiko said with a grin. Nitras threw his head back and laughed with his friends.

"That comes natural, I'm just that good" he joked.


Atlantic Federation Headquarters, Rockies

"Sure thing Lieutenant, we'll arrive there as soon as possible" Commander Cerrical said. On the large monitor before her, Likoal of the Colodonia Base nodded.

"Thank you very much Commander, we're all grateful here for your support" the man replied.

"It's no problem at all. We'll see you as soon as possible". Miss Saruma then turned off the screen, just as the group of the three Gundam pilots, Jina and Iryn, Gartol and Shirta, and Jessa all walked into the small communications room. All of them had been told that the Commander wanted them to come to see her, for reasons they didn't know yet. Cerrical turned around, quickly glancing over them. "Good, you're all here, now I can explain what we'll be doing" she stated.

"Yeah what's goin' on? Are we leaving the base or something?" Logan questioned. To his surprise, the Commander nodded.

"We are in fact" she began, "not long ago we received a message from the Vorga Base in Washington that they've lost even more of their forces in the recent attack by Giyre. They're now down to only a quarter of their fighting strength, and they requested back-up from here. Being that Vorga is one of our larger bases, we're almost obligated to go and help them out. That's why I wanted you all here, because we'll be heading out today". Jina and Iryn looked particularly astonished, while the others were all able to handle the explanation fine.

"It's gotten that bad there huh?" Gartol remarked, about the situation of Vorga. Grimly, the Commander nodded again.

"Yes, it's because a very weak target after two major Giyre offensives. The first battle did a terrible number on them, leaving half of their forces destroyed. Then with the last one they were extremely lucky to hold out long enough for the Giyre troops to retreat, although they still lost another half of their weapons and machines. No one knows when they'll be attacked again, so we can't waste a lot of time, we'll have to get there as quickly as possible." Xigo's eyes narrowed as he thought about the next attack.

"Will Giyre's Gundams be there?" Shigora inquired with a severe tone. The others all looked at him through the corner of his eyes, a little uneasy by his question. Saruma though, didn't flinch.

"From what we know, they won't be there. They just recently were with another attack, and annihilated the Colodonia Base in Oregon. They're still heading back to their Headquarters, where we're sure that they'll remain to rest and get repaired for a while" she said.

"So we'll just be fighting squads of their regular Mobile Suits?" Xigo went on.

"Yeah, that's what we believe. If they use what they have before in the last two attacks, you'll have a few lines of warships, their aquatic Mobile Suits, and then groups of Blackhawks and their Ales. It's a very large attack, but luckily your Gundams, as well as the Llongshot and Twinn should be our saving graces. If Giyre had their Gundams there, we'd be in a lot of trouble. After all, we need Major Taro to stay here and protect the base in case it's attacked again, and as you may know Mister Rolander has flown to Hawaii with the Administrator to show him the new Mobile Suits they created to replace the Strike Daggers and Rollers" the Commander clarified. Jina's eyes lit up.

"You mean they finished them?" she asked. Jessa nodded with a smirk.

"Yep, they've now made enough to send into battle in large groups. My father told me last night, he got the call from the factory that said they had completed what was needed to send out" the younger Rolander said.

"That's great! Now the Earth Forces will definitely be able to fight against Giyre!" Iryn added.

"Maybe so, but right now we can't worry about that" Commander Cerrical quickly interjected, "Captain Arelie is right now getting the Order ready for our launch. Jina and Iryn, head there immediately after you've gathered what you're taking, you'll be on the bridge the entire way there. As for you Gartol and Shirta, do the same, but get into your Mobile Suits and have them docked on the Order. And you boys and your Gundams do that as well. Now get moving". Understanding the seriousness of the situation, the group all gave a salute, and headed out to do as they were told by Cerrical.


Rolander Atlantic Federation Supply Production Complex, Kauai, Hawaii

A small plane landed on the runway outside of the large campus that was the place where a great number of the military weapons and provisions were created for the Atlantic Federation. It was the highly renowned and illustrious business that Treston Rolander owned, and had operated through his commands.

As the jet came to a halt, several workers and officials gathered into a group at the side of it, as if they were eagerly waiting for the people inside to step out. Soon the stairs to get off were unfolded to the ground, and the doors opened as Treston began to walk down them, with Administrator Jorno following behind him.

"Wow! It's really sunny out here, I need to stop by more often" the Administrator said with a chuckle. Treston smiled himself at the comment, very happy that was wearing a pair of dark indigo sunglasses.

"Yeah, I've been here a hundred times and I never get used to it. That's why I always make sure I have these on" he said pointing to his glasses. Reaching into his pocket, he pulled out another pair, and handed them to Jorno. "Try these on if you need them". The Administrator laughed as he took them and put them over his eyes.

"Ahh, that's a relief" he said, feeling comforted. They both arrived onto the ground, and instantly the group of people bowed before Jorno.

"We are very pleased to have you hear Administrator, welcome to our complex" they greeted in unison. Jorno smiled gently at their humbleness.

"Thank you all, I'm sure I'll enjoy it here" he replied.

"You can all get back to your work, I have no special orders for you today" Treston stated. The small crowd dispersed across the rest of the campus, the people heading back to their posts to continue their day. "Follow me Mister Jorno" Rolander then explained, and began to walk towards a porch-like deck with several small tables placed on it. They sat down at one, and a server quickly came by. "Would you like something to drink?" Treston asked, "Tea or a coffee?". Jorno laughed at the thought of drinking one of those two.

"Oh heaven's no, not in this kind of heat. Do you have some kind of fruit-drink?".

"Of course, kiwi-lime, strawberry, dragon-fruit and such".

"I'll have a dragon-fruit" the Administrator decided. Treston looker at the waiter.

"Make that two dragon fruits" he said. With a nod, the man walked off into the small bar that was set up on the island. Jorno found it amusing.

"I'd really love to work here if I didn't have this job, I don't know many places that have a tavern like this" he commented. Treston smiled.

"I particularly like it myself, I figure I give the employees something to truly enjoy about their work" the man said.

"Well, speaking of that, shouldn't we get going for that announcement?" Jorno asked. Treston smirked as the waiter came by with their drinks.

"We have an hour or two before we do that whole thing, let's relax for a while. Besides, you can't make a world-wide declaration looking thirsty, just kick back and enjoy one of these" he suggested, and took a sip of the reddish beverage. Jorno did the same, and upon swallowing it his eyes lit up.

"You're darn right I'll enjoy this" he said with a big grin.


Vorga Base, Washington

The Order slowly moved into perfect position for its landing in the main hangar at the Vorga Base, hidden within the walls of a rocky cliff. On the sides of the canals which ships came in on, Commander Cerrical and Captain Arelie were meeting with Lieutenant Likoal and the higher officials of the station. Other soldiers and crewmen from the Order stood behind her as well, though Xigo and the others were all out around the region doing whatever they pleased.

"I'm very glad that you've come Commander, I speak on behalf of everyone here at the base when I say that I'm much more confident on surviving another attack now that you've come" Likoal humbly said.

"Thank you Lieutenant. I'm sorry to say though that we were only able to bring the Order here, and for one battle only. We've been told to return to Headquarters after we hold off one assault" Cerrical explained. Likoal oddly smirked at the clarification.

"It's no problem at all. Besides, I'm sure we'll just take them all out this time" the man said. Arelie and Cerrical both chuckled at the confident remark.

"Well honestly I think I may have to agree with you on that. We've brought some of our best machines with us" the Captain added.

"Yes, which ones did you bring?" the Lieutenant asked, becoming intrigued.

"The Valor, Thunder and Blaze Gundams, as well as the two new Mobile Suits, the Llongshot and the Twinn" Arelie answered.

"And also one of the new Csander fighter-planes, with the best pilot possible for it, Treston Rolander's daughter" Cerrical added. Likoal's eyes perked.

"Oh really? I heard she was good with the Mobile Armors, but I didn't think she had joined with you guys" he said, "well that's just better. But of course, we have to get a few plans together if before the next attack would come. Please follow me, I have a conference room waiting for us, as well as Jamaican coffee" he explained with a wink at Arelie, and began to walk off. Cerrical threw her head back and laughed as she followed him, leaving behind an almost speechless Arelie.

"Wha-what the? Does everyone in the military know about how much I like coffee or something now?" she asked aloud.

On a small hill, away from where Commander Cerrical and the others were, Xigo, Logan, Rodka, Iryn Jina and Jessa all stood looking out into the sea, and gazing over the beautiful scenery of the region.

"My God, it's so beautiful. I would never expect that this area would be for a major military base" Jina said, marveling over the landscape that stretched for miles.

"Yeah, it's better than most of the seaside bases which are just all compacted into one spot right next to the coast" Iryn added, shielding her eyes from the sun as he looked around.

"Well that's what this place is famous for. It goes into forests, the hills, mountains, bays, cliffs, beaches and the seaside. It's absolutely massive" Logan added, able to stare at the horizon fine due to his dark brown sunglasses. From that comment, Jina's eyes lit up.

"Hey, why don't we go walk around the entire place? Check it all out" she suggested. Iryn was just as enthused.

"Great idea! Let's go!" the girl answered. She and Jina both began to walk towards the one forest down a dirt path, as Jessa quickly caught up to them.

"I'll go with you guys too" she said. Rodka watched the three girls as the left together to the dells.

"Have fun, we'll stay here" he called out with dull tone, and then turned away from them, "and good thing too" he mumbled. Logan sighed as he collapsed onto a rock in a sitting position.

"So…what the hell do we do?" he asked. Xigo shrugged.

"I don't know, I don't exactly wanna just walk around the place" he answered, adjusting his sunglasses.

"Well, I hear they have a pool-hall in their cafeteria…" Rodka said. For a moment, Logan and Xigo were both silent, until they turned to the young Redwing, their eyes almost glowing.

"They have pool here?" they both exclaimed. It was then that Rodka remembered how much Xigo and Logan loved to play the game.

"Yeah, they got like six tables, and it's free too" he explained. Logan literally leapt off the boulder.

"Then what are we doing waiting here? Let's go find Gartol and do a two-on-two game!" Dile shouted. Xigo was already walking off away from them.

"Right on brotha right on!" Shigora added with a big grin.


Rolander Atlantic Federation Supply Production Complex

On a long bridge, hung high above the floor of the hangar, and far across the entire large room, Treston Rolander and Administrator Jorno stood alongside with a few of the company officials, and TV Camera in front of them. A red light on the side of the object flashed, and man behind it gave the signal to let them know he was recording.

"People of Earth" Jorno began in a deep, strong voice, as the live video was being played all across the planet on televisions and radios, catching many peoples' attention, "it is with great pride today that I announce the completion of our first line of new Mobile Suits for the Earth Alliance Military. Thanks to the Rolander Atlantic Federation Supply Production Company, we have taken the obviously weak Roller and Strike Dagger suits, and altered them into stronger, better machines." The Administrator then stepped out of the way, and showed off the Mobile Suits behind him. One type was spider-like, with six legs, a large body and the upper-half of a Mobile Suit soldier attached. The other had a more common frame, similar to the Strike Dagger, but with more weapons and armor. "I give you, the Gells Geh, and the Strike Blades!". All across the world, people were awed at the sight of the beautiful Mobile Suits, and those of the military watching felt their hearts leap. The citizens of the Earth had an amazing feeling to see the new machines that would challenge Giyre's forces. Although the camera still focused on the Gells Geh and Strike Blades, Treston stepped in a little to explain about them.

"The legged-Mobile Suits you see on the left are the Gells Geh. These machines are far superior to the Rollers in almost every way possible" the man explained, "they are mainly meant for ground-fighting, moving at great speeds and having the ability to scale buildings and natural structures, although they do have a fine flight mode for faster travel. Their weaponry consists of two beam rifles, and another two energy cannons, as well as positron reflector each." As he stopped, the camera turned more to the Strike Blades.

"These fabulous Mobile Suits are close to the same level of power as the three regular Strike Gundams the Earth Military has. Their improvements over the Strike Dagger are endless, with better armor, faster mobility, superior flight, and more effective weapons for close, mid, and long-range combat" Treston continued, but then paused a few moments to allow the focus to center on him and Jorno more. "We will soon be sending out our first selections of these machines to the major military bases for the Earth Alliance, and at this moment are still creating more and more to transport to other major battlefields and smaller stations."

"So let it be known to all Earth citizens, all Earth Alliance soldiers, and all of Giyre" the Administrator stepped in with, "that our military force has become far stronger than before, and that our troops will be putting up a much greater fight than in earlier battles. We will not go quietly into the night in this war against Giyre, and this production of stronger Mobile Suits is only the first step we'll take to saving this Earth!". And with that, as Jorno finished his strong declaration, the camera shut off.

"Alright that was perfect!" the man behind it exclaimed. The other officials quickly began to leave the bridge, but the Administrator and Mr. Rolander still stayed in front of the new machines.

"Nice job Treston, I think that'll do us a lot of good" Jorno said with a smile. Rolander smirked, and looked back over to the Strike Blades and Gells Geh.

"Nah, that won't do much. It'll be those guys that do" he replied.


Ranocio Base

As the message from Treston and the Administrator ended, Geroldo walked over to the monitor which played the live proclamation inside a private room of the base, where he, Balador, Worlat and Ragoss all stood to watch it. The high official of Giyre looked over at his leader, wondering what Balador's reaction would be.

"Well sir, do we think that'll help 'em?" Geraldo questioned. Varo smirked as usual, but still nodded in reply.

"Very much so. Those things will be a bigger challenge for us; they should even be stronger than the Zuoots from Zaft, as well as our own Blackhawks and Ales" he answered.

"Shouldn't you be a bit more concerned if you estimate their power to be that great?" Worlat asked, raising any eyebrow. Balador shook his head.

"Not at all. You see our Goliath Suits should still be more powerful, and we also have quite a few Cgue and Guaiz regiments from Zaft. I wouldn't worry".

"Don't forget those new machines sir" Geraldo reminded with a grin. Balador glanced over at him, gaining his own grin.

"Oh of course not. It'll be those that we'll use to seal the deal to our victory. No Mobile Suit from the Earth will stop those, and they'll never be expecting something like that to come onto the battlefield at all" he said.

"And they'll be used for tomorrow's attack right?" Geraldo asked.

"Yes, they'll be loaded onto the Pierrce, which you'll be commanding for the assault" Balador stated, and then looked over at Ragoss and Worlat, "and you both will be going as well, your machines are both ready for battle". Their faces lit up.

"Are you serious? That's great!" Ragoss exclaimed.

"Yeah, I've been dying to use that thing in an attack!" Worlat added.

"Well don't worry, you barely have to wait twenty-four hours for the battle. You'll be leaving tomorrow at noon for the Salt-Lake Base, and your mission is to simply eradicate all forces there" Balador confirmed. Ragoss grinned as he cracked his knuckles.

"Heh, not a problem for me…" he murmured. Not more than a second after he finished his sentence, another officer stepped into the doorway, quickly saluting Balador.

"Sir, forces at Washington report they're ready for their attack on Vorga, do they have permission to launch the assault?" he inquired. Geraldo, Worlat and Ragoss all glanced at their leader, for was silent for several seconds before answering, as if he were simply taking in as much evil glee as he could.

"Let them go…" Balador declared.


Vorga Base

"Attention! All personal to battle stations, Giyre troops closing in!".

That message was said on the sound-system of the base as the sirens began to go off all across the area, with red-lights flashing and spinning as the first lines of Giyre forces were caught on radar. All soldiers, technicians and other officers instantly left their current posts and ran to their locations for an attack. From the cafeteria where they were playing pool, the three young Gundams, along with Gartol, were taken aback by the announcement, just as Xigo knocked his last ball into the pocket.

"Aw man why of all times?" Logan yelled as he threw down his stick and began to run off with the other two.

"What does it matter? I won that game anyways!" Xigo shouted.

Arelie and Cerrical quickly left the room where they were discussing battle strategies with Likoal, while the Lieutenant left for their main control tower of the base. Jina and Iryn followed Shirta onto the Order, though the two girls went straight to the bridge as Shirta went into the hangar to get into the Llongshot.

In minutes, the battle was started, and both sides were exchanging fire. Lines of Strike Rogues and M1 Astrays were lined along the shores in the middle of the region, where most of the barracks and other important structures were set up. They continuously opened fire at the Ales and Blackhawks that soared overhead, only to ignore the incoming Nabvu Aquatic Mobile Suit that came in from the under the waves.

In a flash, groups of them leapt from out of the waters and into the air, landing on the beaches and docks of the area as they attacked. They were machines with a bronze-like color to their armor, stocky in size, and with four tentacle appendages falling from the back and of head and the bottom of their heads. The tentacles in front reared up to shoot out a beam from each, while claws on their hands were fired off as missiles to blow away the Earth Mobile Suits.

Meanwhile several lines of the AGI Mobile Armor were gliding in on the surface of the water. These were the grey spider-like troops of Giyre, with four legs and a thin body for great speed. Quartets of red beams fired from their heads, which literally shot entirely through the enemies they hit, and caused them to explode from the inside. What was even more impressive was when six of them suddenly bounded into the air over a pair of Powell assault landing ships, and released bombs from the bottom of their legs that destroyed them in one giant blast.

The large Pilarldo Class Warships sent hails of missiles down at the base, blowing apart small clusters of Rollers and Strike Daggers, but also doing extreme damage to any building in the way. Ales and Blackhawks were storming over the Earth defense lines, while Nabvus were coming in greater numbers and moving forward quickly. It seemed that Giyre would dominate very quickly…

And then the Gundams flew in.

"Hey there boys and girls!" Rodka cried as the Blaze flew at a number of Ales. The red machine aimed its 120 millimeter Hyper Railgun at the group, and in seconds opened fire. The bullet streams ripped through the green Mobile Suits, and as he passed by, the Blaze was flashing one of its Heat Chains; cutting into any other than escaped his machine gun. "You guys got one helluva fight to survive now!"

The Valor was soon into the chaos as well, and firing off rounds from its 150 millimeter Sub Machine Gun as Xigo aimed the cursor all around. Even with the lack of true aim, three Blackhawks were shot full of holes in no more than ten seconds, and then the blue and gold machine pulled out its longsword to fend off a pair of Ales. They both sent a swipe of their YPS Beam Sabers, only to be blocked by the Valor's blade as it became enshrouded by the blue fire.

"You guys aren't gonna get another chance to attack this place after today!" Xigo yelled, and then pulled his sword back to perform on large slash, which cut the Ales clear in half before their explosions. He then about to send the Valor flying into more groups of Blackhawks, before Rodka noticed something from the corner of his eye.

"Aw crap Xigo, check that out!" Redwing said. Shigora looked over with his Gundam to where the Blaze pointed, and saw an incredible amount of Nabvus and AGIs moving in further down the coast to the cliff regions of the base.

"Dammit, I don't know how we can stop those guys!" Xigo cried.

"I know how I can!" Logan suddenly answered as the Thunder flew past them on an Oaro, but now holding a massive black gun it its hands.

"Oh man, what the hell is that thing Logan?" Rodka asked. The Thunder continued flying ahead, just as it aimed its weapon at the Giyre forces.

"It's the Hyper Gatling Gun I've had made for me, I've been waiting to use it for months now!" Dile yelled back. The Thunder pulled the trigger, and from the huge barrel came forth a barrage of dark blue energy blasts, pouring out fast at the AGIs and Nabvus. In an instant some five of them were blown apart by the beam shots, and as Logan swayed the gun back and forth to bombard all of the collection, more and more were destroyed upon being hit. "Man this was worth the wait!" Logan exclaimed with a grin.

A mile or so away, moving on the waves was the Order, with Nabvus, AGIs, Blackhawks and Ales attacking it from all sides. The massive blue craft was firing off every machine gun on its body, and shooting whatever missiles that could be loaded into batteries and cannons. Luckily, the Twinn and the Llongshot were out in the middle of the fray, the two high-class Mobile Suits fighting off a great number of Giyre troops.

Shirta was piloting the purple and grey Llongshot, keeping it on the hull of the Order as she aimed its High-Energy Sniper Rifle at several Nabvus coming in from under the surface of the ocean. With excellent accuracy, she fired off three violet blasts of energy, each one striking one of the aquatic Mobile Suits and taking them out instantly. A moment later a beam-blast exploded next to the Llongshot, and Shirta turned to see a charging Ale. Aiming her Mobile Suit's left arm, she fired off the Mace and Chain Grappling Launcher, and the head of the made split into four claw-like parts. When it came to the Ale's head, the claws closed back up, and crushed the helmet into pieces, eventually causing the rest of the machine to explode.

"Wow, I didn't think this thing would do this well out here" Shirta said to herself as she let her Grappling Launcher return, "hey bro how are you doing?"

Gartol didn't answer at first, and instead focused on the group of Blackhawks in front of him as he sent the green and smoke-colored Twinn flying at them. In his Mobile Suit's hands was a double-bladed beam saber, which he used in amazing from as he passed through the enemy set. The pole swiped from side to side, up and down, each beam saber cutting through whatever Blackhawk it came by, until the Twinn had taken care of them all.

"I'm fine Shirta, the Twinn's working perfectly. This double-beam saber is amazing!" Gartol replied. Before he could say anymore, he spotted three Ales high in the air above him, all of them aiming their beam rifles at him and apparently charging them up. Not choosing to fly off and try to avoid them, he sent his twin-beam saber spinning around in front of him, until in a few seconds it had projected a full beam-shield. The Ales fired, but their blasts exploded uselessly against the incredible protection Twinn had provided with its weapon. The Giyre pilots were shocked by what had happened, so much that they didn't even notice the Helldart Missiles coming at them from the Order before they were killed.

"Load up Helldart Battery One again and get ready to fire at the Pilarldo Warships up ahead! Fire batteries two and three at those groups of Blackhawks and Ales in the sky!" Captain Arelie shouted from her commander chair on the bridge inside the Order. Both rocket compartments opened, and just as she ordered all missiles were fired out into the enemy lines.

The bridge was more active than it ever had been during the battle, with every navigator and communicator working frantically at their computer to watch out for any problems on the warship and more Giyre Mobile Suits. Commander Cerrical and Captain Arelie had been shouting out orders every other second, trying to take out as many enemies as they possibly could during this great assault.

"We have twelve Nabvus heading in at Dock Three for the Vorga Base, they're gonna to ransack our forces there" Jina stated aloud after sighting them on her monitor. Cerrical quickly went to work.

"Turn ship thirty degrees at them!" she yelled. Two of the crewman took control of the ship's movements, and steered it to face the group of Nabvus. "Aim Gottfrieds one and two and fire!" On top of the two-biggest legs of the Order, the twin-barrel cannons fired off a pair of large green beams each, which hit the waters where the Nabvus were and created a massive explosion. For a moment no one could see what had happened, with all the smoke and mist covering up that area and blocking most radar. Though when it eventually cleared, two of the Nabvus had been spotted by Iryn on her screen.

"Commander, two of 'em survived! They're still moving ahead!" the young Tarob stated. Cerrical gritted her teeth upon hearing that all of them hadn't been destroyed.

"Don't worry guys, I'll take care of that!" Jessa abruptly said on the radio, surprising everyone. Flying within the more built-up area of the base, the Rolander sent her Csander head-on at the Nabvus, which had jumped out from the water and landed on the ground. She sent her Hyper Tri-Barrel 60 millimeter Machine Guns blazing, shooting streams of bullets at the bronze-Mobile Suits with amazing velocity. The Nabvus literally flailed around as they pelted by the assault, soon blowing up as a result of internal damage. "Now to take care of what sent them out" Jessa said as she flew towards a Pilarldo Class Warship. Two small doors slid open in the front of her Csander, and from them she released two B-Class Deton Grenades, which blew apart the Giyre warship instantly. Everyone on the bridge of the Order was amazed by her skill.

"Good job girl, that was amazing!" Cerrical shouted with a smile. Jessa smirked at her compliment.

"Thanks Commander, if you guys need any more assistance just tell me!" she said back, and flew off with her machine guns firing again. The Commander still looked up the main screen, smiling warmly at Jessa's Csander as it still soared away.

"Alright guys don't let up; we still got a lot of work to do here!" Captain Arelie yelled, "Let's keep kicking some Giyre butt!"

The massive battled continued on, not letting up for a moment as more Giyre troops poured into the region. Some ten new Pilarldo Class Warships had joined the other lines, and deployed entire regiments of Mobile Suits. Although the Gundams, the Order and everything else from the Alaska Base was the biggest help during the fight, Lieutenant Likoal refused to only have them as his saving grace, and was performing amazing battle tactics.

From the main command center he was being giving more news every other second, and he was able to reply with a solution from every problem that came up. Even with less numbers, and inferior weaponry, the brash military official proved that his troops could still hold their own. His defense strategies had been ingenious, such moments being the most notable where he lured some twenty Ales into one spot within the forests, and then set up a dozen drone guns to rise up from the ground and open fire on them. Another move was where he had a squad of Skygraspers loaded with the 320mm Hyper Impulse Cannon Agni fire in perfect rhythm for them to destroy an entire warship and Infinite-Depths Submarine each.

But the battle was still far from over.

"Man, these guys just don't stop coming!" Logan yelled as he still fired off his Hyper Gatling Gun, at the same time shooting down two incoming Blackhawks with his Shoulder Mounted Beam Rifle. At the moment the Thunder, Blaze and Valor were all fighting together, holding off most of the air-troops as the Order and Vorga Base forces took care of the ground and sea attackers. Nevertheless, they still had a great fight on their hands.

"Yeah, and if they bring out more Pilarldo Class Warships it's gonna get worse" Rodka added.

"We're lucky enough that the Order is able to handle so much of the force down below, as well as the Twinn and Llongshot" Xigo said, noticing the blue warship blow apart a line of Ales with its Gottfrieds "otherwise the base would be mauled by all those Agis and Nabvus", he appended as he cut a Blackhawk in half with his blade.

"So anyone got any cleaver ideas as how to make our situation easier?" Logan asked.

"Not really, we should just stick around here and keep 'em all away from the other forces, and especially from the base, hopefully we'll get some Skygraspers or Moebius Zeroes to come in and help us soon" Xigo answered.

"Yeah and just huddle together, let 'em come to us and we'll tear 'em apart!" Rodka said. But then, a terrible message appeared on everyone's monitors in their cockpits. It was of a civilian man inside a building, which seemed to be shaking and breaking apart more and more every second.

"Earth Forces! The civilian refugee camps down along the shores have been attacked by some forty Giyre Mobile Suits, they're completely wiping us all out, we can't do anything! Please help us!" he cried, and couldn't get anymore out before everything around him exploded in flame, and the transmission ended. Xigo's face twisted.

"Oh God! We gotta go help them!" Shigora cried, ready to take off.

"No Xigo we can't! We have to stay here and hold off these forces!" Logan quickly protested. Xigo's eyes narrowed as his body shook with his rage.

"And let those innocent people be slaughtered like that?" the young man shouted. Logan's face dropped with a sorrowful look, and it took him a few moments to be able to reply.

"Look man, I know that it's hard not to help them, but we have orders to stay here and protect the base, we can't let this place be overrun at any costs. We'll get in big trouble by the Commander and Captain if we leave this place now…" Dile said, a disconsolate tone to his voice. For a moment Xigo was speechless at what his friend said, but in the next his eyes hardened even more as he sent the Valor flying off.

"Then I guess I'll just get in trouble!" he screamed.

"No Xigo wait!" Logan cried, trying to stop him, but to no avail. He sighed as he watched the Valor soar away down the coastline, to where the civilian shelters were located.

"Just let him go, we can handle this now, there's an entire squad of Skygraspers coming to assist us" Rodka reassured, and with a surprisingly calm voice. Logan slowly nodded.

"Yeah…"


Civilian Shelter Area

The entire vicinity was devastated. Fires the size of Gundams blazed across the dry-grass floor, and craters of unbelievable mass scarred the ground all over. Buildings lay in piles of rubble, while others were charred to a black mess from the flames, or were in pieces from the weapons of the Giyre Mobile Suits. Nabvus, Ales and Blackhawks moved in further onto the land, completely leaving the shore as they all grouped into the destruction that was one the civilian region.

"Well, all of 'em are destroyed now, what do we do?" an Ale pilot asked.

"I don't know, we were just told to destroy this place. Do we go back to the ship?"

"No, we'll head out to the Vorga Base and give the others some help, we'll make sure they take that place over this time" the leader of the company explained. Just then, one of the Blackhawks picked up a signal on its radar.

"Sir, there's a Gundam heading for us!" the pilot cried. All the other soldiers froze.

"What?" the captain cried. Everyone looked up in the sky, and saw the Valor flying down towards them at incredible speed.

"You're all gonna pay!" Xigo hollered, and instantly it fired off two of its Fullmetal Missiles, blowing apart a pair of Nabvus before it even landed on the ground near them. It was then that teen completely noticed the horrible massacre caused there, his eyes widening as they caught sight of the ravaged buildings, and burned, bloody bodies laying on the destroyed ground everywhere. For a moment Xigo was in a state of shock, but soon his eyes were burning with rage, and he looked back at all the Giyre troops. "You bastards!" Shigora screamed, and with that sent the Valor flying at them, pulling out its blazing longsword. He tore through the lines of them, cutting and slashing and hacking at every machine around him, and wrecking them in one blow each.

"How could ever attack and kill innocent people that have nothing to do with this war? You're all a bunch of cowards to slaughtered helpless civilians! You're not soldiers, you're not even fighting a war, you're just butchering people who can't even defend themselves!" Xigo roared in between attacks. After barley forty seconds, he had destroyed an amazing twenty-eight Mobile Suits, leaving only five Blackhawks and Ales left.

"Oh man! That kid's deadly!" a pilot cried.

"Yeah, we gotta get outta here!"

"Then let's go!" Like scolded dogs the Giyre soldiers flew off back to the ocean, their boosters going at full speed to try and get them away from Xigo. He became even more irate by their retreat, and in the process, had an unbelievable occurrence. In his state of rage, jagged red bolts formed on his eyes, growing deeper in color and longer until they had reached his irises.

"You son of a bitches aren't gonna get away!" he cried. At the push of a button, two large cannons unfolded from behind the Valor, and were aimed straight at the Giyre suits. They began to charge, and the barrels glowed with a deep yellow light as the energy was being powered to the highest level. Eventually Xigo fired them off, sending a pair of golden energy beams soaring at the retreating machines. And they caught up quickly.

A few were instantly vaporized by the blasts, while the others were struck head on, and were engulfed in a colossal explosion that completely disintegrated their Mobile Suits, and shook the entire ocean in its wake. A storm of mist flew to the shore as a result, raining down on the area and putting out more of the fire, while causing a great gust of wind to blow forward across the entire shore.

A few minutes went by, and as the smoke and dust began to finally clear, Xigo sat in the Valor, breathing hard and with his hands still tight around his control sticks. His eyes still had the unexplainable red markings on them, and hadn't lost any of their size or color.

"Hey that was the last warship! We've taken 'em all down!" a soldier from Earth cried on the radio.

"Yeah, we've won!" another added. Everyone back the Vorga Base was celebrating after the very last Giyre enemy had been destroyed, cheering and hollering from the success of surviving the third attack. It was even greater that the Giyre forces in the area had now been completely wiped out, and they wouldn't have to worry about another attack for much time.

But Xigo turned off his radio, not wanting to hear the cries of excitement from the victorious Earth soldiers. Instead he looked out to the water, which was just beginning to calm after his beam blasts. Shigora was still seething.

"Giyre…I'll kill you all…"
