Mobile Suit Gundam Resurrection: The Winged Guardians
Episode 5: Through the Ring of Fire
Temuro runs back down to the hangar as the Sedition ships move into firing range.
"Captain their opening fire."
"Move towards the ship in front of us. Lt. Maki will clear the path for us."
Temuro launches in the Gemini Gundam and the cannon pack launches from the core fighter deck. The pack attaches to the Gundam and it grabs the impulse cannon from the back.
"Don't worry captain, this won't be very difficult."
Temuro flies toward the three ships in the Liberties path. Temuro fires the two cannons on the shoulders and they pierce through the first ships hull. Then he fires the impulse cannon right at the bridge. The ship drifts away and explodes.
"That's one of them. Oh crap!"
A squad of Shield Dogas surround him and fire at him. Temuro barely dodges each shot, then fires back and destroys one of them.
"This pack has heavy firepower but kills my mobility."
"This is Michelle, I'm launching!"
Michelle launches followed by Gordon and Alar.
"Don't worry Temuro, we'll give you some cover while you take out the other ships."
The other ships come up from behind the Liberty.
"Captain the other ships are gaining on us!"
"Evasive action!"
The liberty turns around and fires back at the approaching ships.
"Main cannons fire!"
One of the cannons fire and cripple one of the ships.
"The main cannons are offline. We're losing power. We can't take much more of this punishment."
Temuro flies past one of the other ship and takes it out.
"Only one more! No, the Liberty! Michelle, Gordon, give the Liberty some cover!"
"Yes sir."
"Alar, I'll need you to cover me some more."
"Don't worry kid, I got your back."
"And so do I!"
The Hawk Gundam flies by and takes out three of the Shield Dogas.
"Masaki! I am so glad to see you!"
"Dammit kid, you get to have all the fun. I've been looking for a good fight to test the new upgrades to the Hawk."
The Hawk Gundam has been upgraded with a new set of wings and two turret cannons on it's shoulders that is controlled by the psychommu system. Masaki flies around and takes out every mobile suit near him with the turret cannons.
"Captain, it's the Pegasus!"
The Pegasus fires its main cannons and takes out half of the pursuing ships.
"I didn't think you would have this much trouble."
Temuro takes out the last ship and returns to the Liberty.
"Send me the Blaze pack and I'll take clean the rest of them up."
The Cannon pack detaches and the Blaze pack is launched from the ship.
"Time to go to work."
The Blaze Gemini Gundam flies by and shoots down every mobile suit in the Liberty's way.
"Full speed, get us out of here!"
The Liberty flies from the battle zone with the Pegasus behind it. The Sedition turns around and retreats from the area. A few hours later, the Pegasus and the Liberty arrive back at the moon. The Liberty enters port for repairs as Captain Vaughn meets with Captain Senion and the other Federation commanders.
"Commander Vaughn, please give us your report."
"The Sedition launched a surprise at the Side 9 base. In the process they stole two prototype Gundam models, the Phoenix, and the Destroyer. We pursued them into the shoal zone nearest to the colony and we were ambushed by a fleet of Sedition ships."
The Commanders start to talk amongst themselves and become restless.
"It seems that the Sedition remnants are becoming more organized and stronger."
"Where are they getting this support?"
"I say its Zeken's son. That little bastard is probably the one providing them with their support."
"That may be but we don't have any evidence."
"We need to find this "Levianthan" base of theirs. My fleet has been searching throughout the whole Earth sphere and we haven't been able to find it."
Senion stands up and looks towards Vaughn.
"Captain Vaughn, I'm assigning you to find this "Levianthan". I want you to join up with Admiral Palan's 38th Mobile Fleet at Side 3."
"Yes sir."
"Good luck Larry."
Commander Casval sits in his quarters with Lucia.
"So they survived my little surprise. I'm not really that surprised. After all, he's with them."
"Take off that mask just for now. I guess since you know who I am."
Casval removes his mask.
"You have the most beautiful blue eyes. They really don't fit your personality."
"Another reason for me to wear this mask."
Captain Vaughn returns to the ship and arrives on the bridge.
"Prepare to move out of port."
"Yes sir, all hands prepare for launch."
The Liberty's engines ignite and they fly out of port. They fly into space towards their next mission.
