Chapter 12: Final Ultimatum
Heero was staring at the Alpha Gundam, which was pointing its Hyper Beam Sword at him. His life was flashing before his eyes, the eve wars, destroying The Libra space station, ending the Mariemaia revolt. Marrying Relena, their kid's first birthday. His friends, Wing ZERO, the real Heero Yuy's assassination, and many other important things in his life.
Heero is gripping the controls of Angel and says "I may end up dying someday but, today's not my day to die!" He pushes the pedals and flies up away from Alpha, as Ragne stabs the ground of the moon. Heero sees another seed, this one glowing gold in color. He breaks it and his reaction time is doubled. Heero is now fully utilizing the Angel Gundam being able to match Ragne's Newtype abilities. He draws his beam sabers and binds them together to form a dual bladed beam sword.
Ragne pulls, the Hyper Beam Sword, free and charges Heero. Heero holds out his Beam Sword, pointing the tip towards Alpha Gundam. The wings on Angel Gundam spread apart, and gathered solar energy, to increase the power of its weapon. As the Alpha continued to charge, Heero made a thrusting movement with his Sword, as though to warn Ragne, of what would happen next, Ragne new what would happen, and thought of a way to counter it.
At the last second, Ragne flies upward and heero also moves his weapon to guard. Ragne begins to bring down his Hyper Beam Sword, when it is destroyed, by a crack that was made by Heero's Beam Sword.
"You've lost already" Heero said "why don't you just give up? Cease this senseless violence." He finished while pointing his beam sword at the cockpit of Alpha Gundam.
"No! I will never give up!" Ragne said. He backs away from Angel and draws his second Hyper Beam Sword. He tries to use it but it appears to be short-circuited. 'Dammit' he thought as he tried to get away from Heero. He drew his two beam sabers, turns around to face Heero and stood his ground to fight.
'This was it, all or nothing gambit for victory' Ragne thought as he crossed his two Beam sabers. 'Now we will find out who is stronger' he thought 'me or him'.
Heero's Dual Beam Sword came down with the same force to level New York city 10 times over. 'He's not dead' Heero thought. 'Not just yet.' As the smoke cleared, he saw the Alpha Gundam in all its glorious Gold and Silver color Scheme.
"Why won't you end your suffering?" Ragne asks when he breaks Angels attack on him. "If you won't then I will end it for you!" The Alpha Gundam begins to transform into a sort of Mobile Armor with three arms for grabbing things like Mobile Suits and space battleships. Ragne charges toward the Angel and clamps down around it.
"I'll see you in the other world" Ragne said while pressing buttons on a keypad. "If I die then so do you!" He presses the Enter button. A timer appears on the Gundams display. It counted back from 10. The display read Self-Destruct in 10, 9, 8...
As the number reached zero Ragne said "say goodbye to fighting for this unit will detonate with the force of a Decaton Nuclear Warhead" he finished.
"Damn You!" Heero thought. He was rushing to put up the Nuclear Shielding devices.
"Heero" Relena said "Don't be afraid. Just hurry on back"
A spectacular glow could be seen from all corners of the Solar System. From Mercury to Pluto. The glow lasted for almost five minutes. When it finally had died down. The Moon was gone and so was any trace of the Gundams.
"Where's Heero?" Relena Asked from the bridge of the Archangel. Duo, Trowa, Quatre, Chang, Noin and Zechs all wondered, the same thing.
"Ma'am!" Marilia Haw said "we have a heat source approaching. It appears to be the Angel Gundam!" the Bridge was filled with cheers of joy and happiness
"This is Angel Gundam pilot Heero Yuy." Heero said "do I have permission to land?" he asked
"Granted" Murrue said.
"Well, well." Treize said "good job Heero, now you can go home. But be sure to never lose that fighting spirit, that you, have."
"Understood." Heero said "but why Ragne. Who was he and what did he want?"
"Wasn't it obvious?" Treize said "he wanted to kill you and me, and anyone else that piloted a Gundam. As for whom he was, well that's something you'll have to figure out, on your own" Treize started to fade away as though he was never there. There was a bright light that emanated from where Treize stood.
When the light had died down they found that they were back at the Preventers Main Hangar bay.
"Now we can live in peace." Relena said. "Come on. Let's go home" She and Heero started to walk to the space port to go home.
