Gundam World

Author's notes: I got a review asking me if there is going to be any pairings in this story. To tell you the truth, I have never thought of inserting a pairing into this plot. But if you guys want it, I could find Ms. Lacus and Cagalli and Lunamaria and Murre etc. somewhere and ask if they'd like to be in the fic. Lol. So please tell me if you'd like a love story to encompass the plot as it moves along.

Phase 2. Episode 4

"Preparing all units to land, please proceed to your battle station." Units from within the Majestic slowly moved into the many landing pods around the hanger. "Landing mission to begin in exactly 3 minutes. Set all thruster settings to atmospheric flight."

"Lufius, is the power perimeter secure for the landing mission?" Kenshin asked his assistant as the battle went on outside in savagery.

"Yes sir, our space units have secured the area around us." His assistant, Lufius said. "We are ready to commence operation overlord."

"Okay then, move the ship Majestic to the coordinates 190 degrees Z, 24 degrees X and 46 degrees Y into the moon gravity field. Thrusters set at 75 percent. After we have reached the point, commence operation over lord!" Kenshin made a dramatic wave with his hand. "We'll take the moon base and fight back the remaining ZAFT forces in the area!" A huge jolt is felt throughout the ship as it changed its course abruptly towards their specified coordinates. The mammoth of a battleship began moving across the skies over the moon, its surface bumping into countless remain of mobile suits as it went.

"All units stand by, deployment of landing pods have began." The loud speakers throughout the ship sounded loudly as hundreds of pods, filled with four land EAMSs each, began to be released by the large clamps that held them to the ship Majestic and various other carrier ships in the fleet. As soon as they were released, the pods began to be sucked towards the moon much like the Strike Gundam was only a short while ago. Literally hundreds of these pods marked the sky over the ZAFT's moon military base. They quickly descended from the heavens and the pods cracked open to reveal thousands of Military mobile suits raining down from the sky.

"Athrun," came Le Kluze's voice over the radio as Athrun sat in his Zaku phantom, facing his enemy, the Strike Gundam. "Retreat, go to the space port and launch into space towards the Bismarck immediately. The whole fleet is moving back to the Yakin Doe Base to defend PLANT, we have already lost the Moon base."

"What!" Athrun said incredulously, keeping a wary eye on the deadly unit that stood in front of him. "You can't be serious!"

"I am serious Athrun, the Earth Fleet's flagship is moving towards the Moon's atmosphere as we speak, they are going to land all of their units soon." Kluze paused, letting the situation sink in, and then he spoke again, "get out of there now, there is nothing more we can do."

"But Commander, what about the Strike?"

"Leave it, a search team with a Gundam in it is already heading towards it right now, you won't be able to bring it back."

"Fine, I'm heading back." Athrun made a move to leave, but that triggered his enemy and broke the stalemate between them. The Strike suddenly charged towards him, its menace was terrifying now that Athrun no longer wanted to fight. "Shit!" He said and narrowly evaded an attack towards where he sat. Athrun engaged his boosters at full strength and launched away from his deadly enemy. "You win this time Strike, but I'll shoot you down, you just wait." With that, Athrun disappeared into the thick smoke that clouded the skies over the moon.

"Kira! Kira, do you copy?" The communicator in the Strike suddenly flared up and Kira heard the voice of Mwu La Flaga over it.

"I'm here commander," Kira said quietly as he faced the direction where his enemy had disappeared. "The Strike is badly damaged though." He checked the status of his machine and found that the overall capability of the Strike had been reduced to 47 percent due to "severe damage".

"I thought as much, we lost contact with your unit a while ago." Major La Flaga sounded a little relieved now. "You're a good pilot, you didn't get shot down." Then the sound of him laughing could be heard. Soon, the thundering sound of several mobile suits flying towards Kira could be heard, the sound was magnified as it echoed through the opening in his cockpit.

Kira opened his cockpit and exited through the opening. After his feet had touched the ground, he realized that this was his first time on the Moon; in fact, it was his first time on another planet! Kira took a deep breath and looked around to see a group of Mobile suits landing near the battered up frame of the Strike. One of them was Major Mwu La Flaga's unit because it was different, it was a Gundam; It's frame wasn't the all-white design of the standard Earth Alliance mobile suits. It was white with red streaks on the wings in the back, a gold hood covered a blue cockpit, and a heavy looking armor hung on its wrist. The Burning Gundam was a formidable machine to simply look at. After they had landed and shut off their units, the pilots emerged from their Mobile suits and rushed towards the Strike while Major Mwu La Flaga walked towards Kira. He whistled, taking in the state of the Strike, as he neared the boy.

"You did a number on that unit," the commander took off his helmet and smiled, "good job, reports say that you destroyed quite a few enemy units."

Kira didn't reply, he was shaken up quite a bit after that encounter with that blue haired boy, who seemed to have been the same age as him, and there was the same desperation in his eyes as in Kira's.

"What's wrong?" Commander La Flaga asked, a little worried.

"It's nothing," Kira began; he lifted up his face and saw the stare that the Commander gave him. "Well, I fought this enemy, he ripped my cockpit open and I, his." Kira stopped for a moment to contemplate what he was going to say, he rubbed a tired hand through his messy brown hair, "Well, I couldn't help feeling that we are somehow the same, he was just like me. So I asked my self, why are we fighting?" The commander's hand on his head suddenly brought Kira to look up.

"Don't worry about your enemy so much," he said, the cheerful smile still on his face, "we are all human beings, that's why you shouldn't know your enemy too well, because you will find things that'll make you weak." The commander said in Ernest, as if he had been through the same thing, many time.

"Commander!" One of the maintenance officers that were charging the Strike's battery yelled out from high above them, in the cockpit, "a message from Majestic, Captain Himura is sending over a shuttle to transport Ensign Yamato (Kira's last name) and the Burning Gundam back to the ship along with you, and we'll bring the Strike with us back to ship for repairs later. Mwu waved a hand at him, signaling that they heard the message, not bothering to yell.

"Well, you better get into the Burning Gundam, we'll head towards the landing point and wait for the shuttle." With that, the two of them headed towards the Burning Gundam and soon were on their way.

Any resistance left within the moon base were soon destroyed or retreated. The remaining ZAFT soldiers that continued fighting were killed quickly as they were outnumbered four to one.

A mere one hour later, the Moon base had been taken and destruction is evident in every corner of the area. Barely any buildings were left standing and the place was covered in rubble, with many bodies buried beneath them.

A fist was slammed against a rigid locker on the ship Bismarck as the Kluze team changed out of their pilot suits.

"Damn it!" Yzak yelled angrily, "how could we have lost the moon base!" He punched the locker again, denting its previously smooth surface. Everyone else, including Athrun, was silent, because they too, felt the same way.

Athrun began quietly: "Yzak, calm down, it's over now."

"Stop trying to sissy talk to me!" Yzak bit back harshly. Athrun sighed and slid out of his space suit.

As the team went through the corridors of the Bismarck towards their living quarters, one of the large T.V. screens on the walls cut to a special news bulletin. A man was speaking in it, behind him were the banners of the Earth Alliance and many men were clapping as he spoke.

"Hey, that's…" Nicol Began.

"Hiko Seijurou, chairman of the Earth Alliance." Dearka finished for him. This got the team to stop and watch intently as the man known as Hiko Seijurou spoke passionately.

This is what he said:

"The Earth Alliance will not allow the separation of the ZAFT, they are entitled to their freedom, but the Earth will not tolerate any sort of invasion from a state that we control!" The crowd before him, which was composed of thousands of people, cheered wildly. "The arming of the Moon and Yakin Doe by the PLANT is a serious threat to the security of Earth, and the attack on Panama showed the willingness of PLANT to attack Earth. We will no longer tolerate a life in fear of danger from the sky! The recent attack on the Moon is only one in a series of measures that we, the Earth Alliance will be making in order to ensure our own protection and unity of our race!" The crowd cheered again.

"A state that we control! Is he referring the PLANT!" Shishio burst out angrily along with Yzak, "you've got to be kidding! The PLANT will not be controlled by the Earth, I'll make sure of that."

"I hereby send this message to the chairman of PLANT, disarm your entire military forces and come under the protection of the Unified Earth and Space Alliance, the Earth alliance will grant all freedoms previously entitled to the people of PLANT. But, if this ultimatum is not met within 2 days, we will be forced to commence attacks on the remaining military facilities associated with PLANT. All lives lost will mar the conscience of the PLANT officials forever!" The crowd went wild, and they began chanting in a religious fervor.

"HIKO, HIKO, HIKO, HIKO!" The T.V. turned off quickly as the transmission was cut off.

"That Hiko," Yzak said through gritted teeth.

"Don't get so worked up," Kluze said calmly from behind him. "We will win the war, and his death will be our trophy."
