Chapter 9: Back Again
Lindsay was waiting for Siena by her gundam.
"Siena" Lindsay said as she rushed to Siena. Siena was getting out of the Strike.
"Hey" Siena said meeting up with Lindsay.
"I'm so glad you're alright. I was worried sick." Lindsay said as a trickle of water ran down her cheek.
"Yah, sorry about that." Siena replied. Kira got out of the Strike's cockpit.
"Hey, Kira thanks." Siena said as Kira walked towards them.
"No problem. I'm glad that you're not dead." Kira said as he left.
"Want to go to the cafeteria, I haven't ate breakfast yet." Lindsay said.
"Sure, but I'm not hungry. I'll watch you eat." Siena said.
"Okay, then let's go." Lindsay said as the two girls walked in unison.
After Lindsay and Siena ate and left the cafeteria they headed toward their room.
"What a nice day." Siena said as she floated to her bed.
"Yup, it's nice to be floating in middle of space." Lindsay laughed. "So, what did you do, while you were gone?"
"I met this nice Z.A.F.T. pilot who saved me and then I met his sister on his home plant. They showed me around and the place it's awesome! Michael bought me this necklace." Siena said showing her the necklace. Siena paused. Her face turned sad and she spoke "Lindsay,
remember that ship that I accidentally destroyed that day when we battled the Dinns. Well his girlfriend was on. I feel terrible for killing innocent people." Lindsay watched as tears came down Siena eyes. "I swear I didn't mean to kill that ship."
"I know…" Lindsay started but didn't know what to say. She was always bad at comforting people. Lindsay's face turned sad as she could not bear to see her friend cry.
"Everyone to level one battle stations, everyone to level one battle station." Murrue said on the intercom. Lindsay watched as the Siena wiped her tears from her eye.
"You don't have to come and fight today." Lindsay said as she could not think of anything else.
"No I'm okay. Let's go" Siena replied as both girl quickly floated to their gundams.
"You guys will be battling the Aegis Gundam, the Sonic Gundam and the Buster Gundam." Miriallia said. "Kira, you can launch as soon as you're ready." Miriallia said to Kira on the radio.
"Michael" Siena whispered to herself, remembering that Michael was controlling the Sonic Gundam.
"Okay, Kira Yamato launching" Kira said as he launched.
"Lindsay, you can launch as soon as you're ready and Siena you will be back up if Kira and Lindsay need." Miriallia said to Lindsay.
"Ready, Serene Gundam launching now" Lindsay said as she entered the battle ground.
"Got it" Siena said. 8 minutes passed and Miriallia came on the radio.
"Siena you can launch when you're ready." Miriallia said.
"Right, Saviour Gundam launching" Siena said as she launched. She looked around and found that Lindsay was battling the Buster Gundam. Kira and the Aegis were in an intense battle which left the Sonic Gundam open.
"Michael" Siena said as she drew near to the Sonic Gundam. Michael and Siena started battling each other.
"Hey Siena." Michael said as he quickly and carefully maneuvered his gundam.
"Hi, I didn't think that we would meet again so soon." Siena replied, trying to strike the Sonic gundam. "You're good at piloting your gundam, is it because you're a coordinator?"
"Maybe or it could be because I'm just a good pilot." Michael joked.
"Doubt it. Anyway I think we should stop talking like friends and fight." Siena said.
"Well do we have to fight. It would be a pity if I killed you" Michael said.
"You won't be able to. I may be a natural but I'm not that stupid." Siena said as she dodged Michael's attacks. Suddenly there was a loud sound. The Archangel had just been hit by the Buster Gundam.
"Lindsay, Siena and Kira retreat to the Archangel at once." The three pilots heard on their names on the radio.
"See ya" Siena said to Michael as she and the other two gundams entered the war ship.
"Bye" Michael replied remaining in the position.
The next day:
"Captain Murrue" Cagalli said as she entered Murrue's room.
"Good morning Cagalli, What is it?" Murrue said turning to face Cagalli.
"I just phoned my dad and he said that the engineers were making a ship by his commands. He also said that the ship was going to be used to try and end the war. Both Z.A.F.T. and Earth Alliance and anybody else can join him and I'm going to be one of those people, so I wanted to say that in the next week I will be leaving the Archangel. I'm sorry but I want to try and end this war." Cagalli said stepping closer to Murrue.
"I understand. Cagalli is anybody allowed on it?" Murrue asked.
"Yes, anybody here or with the Z.A.F.T. is permitted to join." Cagalli said. "Thanks for understanding."
Murrue watched Cagalli walk out the room. "To end war…" Murrue whispered to herself and then got back to her work.
"Have you heard Orb is making a new ship" Miriallia said as she sat down beside Siena. Siena, Lindsay, Kira and Toelle were sitting at a table eating, in the cafeteria.
"Yah and anybody can join." Toelle said take a bite out of his food.
"I might join it. I heard it the only reason Orb's making the war ship is so that it can end peace." Siena said thoughtfully.
"But we're trying to do that here too." Lindsay said.
"Yah but coordinators and naturals get to work together in that ship, here all we're doing is fighting coordinators." Siena said. Remembering that Kira was a coordinator she added then trailed off, "No offense to you Kira it's just that…"
"Nah it's okay" Kira said smiling. "I'm going to go check the Strike, see you later."
"So, are you going to join the Orb ship?" Siena asked Miriallia and Toelle. She didn't need to ask Lindsay because they would always join the same ship no matter what.
"Maybe" Miriallia replied finishing her food. Beside her was Toelle who drinking water. "It's time for our shift, so we should be going. Bye" Miriallia said with Toelle behind her.
"See ya." Siena and Lindsay said in unison.
"I'm going to go to my room see ya." Siena said as she left the cafeteria.
"Bye" Lindsay said as she stared at the food in her tray, and then whispered "War…"
Meanwhile…
"Hey" Kyle said as Michael got out of the Sonic Gundam.
"Hi" Michael replied while he floated Kyle. "So what's up?"
"Nothing much, though the people here aren't half bad." Kyle replied Michael.
N/A: I'm running out of ideas but I do have ideas so my next chapter might take a while. Like 2 to 3 weeks. Sorry but I also have to do homework, go to my job and other stuff.
