DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN THE SONG THAT APPEARS IN THIS CHAPTER! SE owns it do to one of its best RPG game sagas ever made
Kira could not believe what Aelan said to him. "Of course Flay would remember me!" Kira told her as she shook her head no.
"She could she could not, I tell you she has the high possiblity of not knowing you. Logos used something to alter Memories. If they still have it, then she might not remember you or have really bad memories about you." Aelan told him. "We also need to know why she is here to begin with." Aelan told him. "For now we just have to wait." She told him as Kira looked away from her ashamed.
"Listen Kira we all want to know whats going on but right now isn't the time, we need rest, and with her nearby the other destroyers can't be to far behind." Kevin told him as Kira then nodded.
"Fine I will be going to bed now." Kira said leaving the group there.
"May our goddess protect us in the times to come." Kevin said looking at the frozen picture of Flay.
Meanwhile in an abandoned Museum the appointed Flay Alster sat on a bench looking at the data as she sends it to someone else. Her fingers were going through the Laptop as though she was a coordinator. "Hmm the boss will really like this data." She said as she remembered her briefing.
Mendel Colony Briefing room. twelve people stood in the room as they wait for their commander for a briefing. Each person were of their own style as starting on the left side of the Room was Flay, the very person remembering this. To her right stood three girls and nine men each in their own attire. Then through the main door came their commander as they saluted him. "Ahh its good to see you are all ready, as we attack ORB in two days." The man said as he looked exactly like Kevin Walker.
"Yes Bahamut we are ready." Someone said as another person that looked like him looking at Bahamut.
"Alrighty, before the battle though we are sending Phoenix." The man said looking at Flay. "She is going to be getting the data we need." He said as she nodded. "You will go by shuttle rather than mobile suit, to conspicuous." He told her.
Back in Present time and On earth. Flay layed back as she got a radio message from her base. "Phoenix here." She said as she then smiled. "Ok mobile suit here afternoon got it." She said as she looked at the laptop. A snickered smile crept across her face. "Lets see maybe I should tell them where I am before the end." She said reaching the computer with one hand. She hacked into the system and began to type a message to Kevin Walker, Kira Yamato, and Aelan Walker. The three people she knew rather well She then cracked her fingers for a second and looked at the Laptop. "Ahh I will give it to them tomorrow, and then they can see an old friend." She said falling asleep on the bench.
At the Nexus house Chris was in his office as he looked over the Jet form of the Dynasty Gundam being fitted with its Jekla Launcher. His phone then began to ring as he answered it. "Hello." He said as his wife was on the other end.
"Hey cutie something wrong?" She asked as Chris almost fell out of his chair. "Whoa take it easy its only me." She said with a smile as Chris could See Lacus behind her waving.
"Hey Chris!" She called as Chris waved at her.
"So where are you?" Chris asked her as she smiled.
"ZAFTs Carpentaria base. We will be getting a ride to ORB tomorrow, we can't wait to see our kids perform." Meer said with a smile on her face.
"Yeah, and I see you bought yourself some new pajamas." Chris said as she smiled.
"Actually I didn't they were a gift from the Chairman for coming to the PLANTs to perform." She told him.
"That Athrun, giving gifts to other guys wives." Chris said putting a hand on his shoulder. "Any Idea on when the shuttle will arrive?" Chris asked her as Lacus came over to the phone.
"We will be arriving at about noonish. Don't worry we will arrive in time." Lacus said with a reassuring smile.
"Alright thanks Lacus." Chris said as Meer got a bit of a worried face. "Whats wrong Meer?" Chris asked her.
"I have a bad feeling about tomorrow for some reason." Meer said as Lacus got a grim look. "You know with the Colony moving towards the Planet now." She told him as Chris nodded.
"Yeah everyone is worried about that." Chris told her. "That is why Kevin has made sure the ORB Army is ready to go out at any moment and all escape shuttles are to head to the nearest Shuttle." Chris told her. "Don't worry, we are ready for anything as the new Machines have been given their final touches. And heck, the Earth Forces are patroling the Oceans everywhere as ZAFT is keeping a close eye on the Colony." Chris told her. "If anything odd happens, we will be alerted immediatly." Chris told her as Meer nodded.
"Alright I will worry less but you can't stop me from worrying." Meer said as Chris nodded.
"Alright good night dear." Chris said blowing a Kiss.
Meer nodded "Give our daughters a Hug for me tonight." Meer said with a wink as Chris nodded and then turned off the phone as Chris looked at the Dynasty one more time as the area began to shut down in power.
"I hope that our worst Fears do not appear tomorrow." Chris said as he took the elevator back to the house.
That night Kevin and Aelan slept in the same bed. The latest thing on their minds was the new Flay.
The Dream
But then their thoughts began to change, rather then being in the same bed the two of them were now in the cockpit of a mobile suits. When the cockpits came to life they saw twelve mobile suits and Mobile Armor fire by them destroying the ORB city behind them. "Hey what the hell?" Aelan called as a three headed BuCUE jumped by them and opened its middle heads Mouth to fire a Syllica beam like that of the Aegis, Calamity and Raider. Once it destroyed the Target it then changed into a mobile suit.
"What in the world?" Kevin asked himself.
Then they both heard a voice in their heads. "Aelan, Kevin please leave ORB at once, you are in danger!" A familiar voice called but they couldn't put their fingers on who. "Please this is only a vision of what your reality could be." The voice said as infront of them were thirteen people with shadows over their faces.
"The two of you will pay for living." They all said in unsion as they charged at Kevin and Aelan.
Out of Dream.
Kevin and Aelan both shot straight up Sweat coming off of them as the two of them both had Blades extended. "What. . ." Aelan panted. Then she turned to Kevin. "The hell was that?" She asked him.
"I don't know." Kevin said as he looked at his wife. "But I don't like it." Kevin said as he looked over to see his Laptop with its little signal that he had mail. The sun was in its eleven o'clock position. Outside as Kevin walked over in a pair of jogging pants. "Hmm now who could be sending me mail?" Kevin wondered as he sat at the desk and began to type.
He opened as the Message said this.
Dear, Kevin Walker or is it Snake I have lost track
Well anyway if you want answers about the attack on that car, I suggest you come by the museum this afternoon. Oh and bring siren with you.
Sincerely Phoenix
"So that is what Flay is going by these days." Kevin said as he looked it over.
"So her trap has been set and she is using herself as bait." Aelan said thinking.
"Indeed, and I don't want the others to know about his, this is just for us." Kevin told her as Aelan nodded in agreement.
Meanwhile. Chris, Nicola, Erika, Maria, and Raymond were all back stage of the stage that was set for the concert. Nicola, Maria, and Raymond were all getting ready as Nicola made sure her microphone worked as the others tuned their instruments. "Sis could I possibly dance onstage with you?" Erika asked as Nicola looked at her.
"Sure, just don't bump into me ok" Nicola said with a wink as Erika nodded.
Erika then went off to get ready as she was now to dance along side her sister. "That was sure nice of you." Maria said applying some lipstick.
"Hey, its my sister I have to be nice to her." Nicola said as she put on a earing of a small pearl on. "I hope this thing goes well." She said as Raymond tuned his guitar.
"Well I am ready." He said as he wore a black vest with a red shirt underneath it. It had as symbol on it which was a circle intertwined with three ovals. Infact Maria and Nicola had the same symbol somewhere on their clothing. They called it the Trinity to symbolize theif bands friendship.
"Yeah I guess I am." Maria said as she turned to her best friend. "What about you Nicola?" She asked as Nicola got a bit of a stage fright written face. "Something wrong?" Maria asked her.
"Oh its nothing don't worry about it. I just wish Mom was here to see me sing." She said as Chris left the room. "I so wanted to have mom here." She said as Raymond put a hand on her shoulder.
"Hey Nic don't worry, I wanted my mom to see me Play." Raymond said as he had his guitar on his back.
"Yeah that is true." She said as Chris came back in with three people behind him. He then Grunted to get their attention. Nicola, Maria, and Ray looked over to see three woman standing behind Chris. One with long black hair that was wearing a semi revealing gown. Antoher woman beside her with long pink hair that was Maria's mother. And beside her in a ORB military Uniform was the Queen of ORB Cagalli.
"MOM" The three of them called as Each of them hugged their respective mother.
Meer hugged her child as did the others. "We would not miss this special day for all of you." Meer told them as Cagalli and Lacus nodded in agreement. "Now what do the three of you say we get the show on the road." Meer said as Nicola nodded.
Ray and Maria were the first to move as they climbed onto two seperate hovercrafts. "See you out there." The two said as they controlled the hovercraft with their feet.
Out by the main stage the Lights begin to Dim on the inside of the building. Maria and Raymond flew around Playing their Guitars.
Just then the spot lights came on to the stage as Nicola stood there.
"What can i do for you
What can i do for you
What can i do for you
What can i do for you
I can hear you
What can i do for you
What can i do for you" The announcement called as Nicola began to dance.
"What can i do for you" It said again as everyone began to cheer as Meer began to pull Lacus and Cagalli to the stage as the five girls danced to the beat.
"Far beneath the hazy boarders of my heart
I can see a place
It's something like this
Every now and then I
don't know what to do
Still I know that I
Can never go back" Nicola sang as at that moment at ORBs abandoned Museum.
Kevin and Aelan swing open the massive doors to the museum as the two walked into the massive halls of history. The sound of their footsteps echoed throughout the building as the eerie silence crept throughout the building. "You know Kevin I have a bad feeling about this." Aelan said as she kept her hands clenched ready to extend two forearm blades.
At the Stadium Nicola and the other girls continue to dance. "All the things I've seen
In those hazy dreams
Can't compare to what
I see tonight
Everythings so different
That it brings me to my knees" Nicola sang as she waved her hangs snapping her fingers.
At the Abandoned Church Kevin had his fists tightened and his ears open for any sound out of the ordinary. "Yeah I agree." He said as he then heard a sudden click as he perked his attention to the ceiling of the building. "Shit get down" He called pushing Aelan out of the way as he jumped as well when a bullet bounced off of the floor where they once stood. The two looked up into the shadows as they saw a human figure jump from rafter to rafter with great speed. Aelan and Kevin both draw their revolvers and look to the ceiling.
"And oh, I know, the world of Real Emotion
Has surrounded me
I won't give into it
Now I know, that world
It is the only
way my heart can go
I hear your voice calling out to me
You'll never be alone" Nicola said dancing as both Meer and Lacus brought Chris onto the stage to. As the Girls encouraged him to dance with everyone.
As at the Museum:
"Damn where did she go?" Aelan asked aiming in different areas as only silence roamed the room.
A laugh could be heard but thanks to the echos they could not tell where it was coming from. "It seems I am exactly like my code name." Flay called as she extended her blades from her finger nails in one hand and held a gun in the other. "I have risen from the ashes anew from what I once was, and I have the professor to thank for that." She said as she shot at Kevin shattering the glass that was behind him while he dodged just in the knick of time.
"What can I do for you
What can I do for you
What can I do for you
I can hear you" The announcement called.
At ZAFT the new Ship called the Minerva II as the Captain of the Ship ordered it to go towards the Mendel Colony as the Umbrella shield has gone down and two of the Ships on the Colony launched a few minutes Earlier. "Sir" Meyrin called. "Mobile suits detected!" She called.
"Which ones and How many?" Arthur asked.
"No Clue, a Large Group has launched. Thirteen signals and who knows how many more of the multiple machines.
"What can I do for you
What can I do for you
What can I do for you" The Announcement called.
"I don't plan on looking back on my own life
I don't ever plan
To feel I own you
Even if by chance everything should go wrong
You come in one day
And try to save me" Nicola sang dancing.
"What are you saying FLAY!" Kevin called as Flay was laughing again while changeing her position.
"Kevin you wont believe me if I tell you as I am not the only person from your past brought back to life." She said jumping from the rafters and right infront of the two destroyers. When she landed the wood underneath her split in several spots making it as though she made a small crater. Aelan shot at Flay but a electro magnetic shield appeared sending the bullet to Flays right shattering a window. "Oh my I thought you knew how the destroyers were, equipped with electric magnetic shields making us immune to bullets." Flay said with a laugh as she walked out of her small crater.
At the Stadium. "If from time to time
It's an upward climb
All I know is that I must believe
Cause the truth I'm seeking
Always was inside of me" Nicola called. As in Space Ten Mobile suits fly towards Earth as a Mobile Armor flew after the approaching ZAFT force as it was been followed by a few white Mobile suits that are the same thing as the Taurus from Gundam Wing. And four of the mobile suits were carrying two boxes.
"And when, I find, the world of Real Emotion
Has surrounded me
The many things that you
Taught me then
Will always be enough to get me through the pain
Because of you I am strong enough
To know I'm not alone" Nicola called as Chris and Meer were doing the Tango in a way.
"What can I do for you
What can I do for you
What can I do for you
What can I do for you
What
can I do for you
What can I do for you
I can hear you" The Announcement called.
At the Museum:
"Damn" Aelan said as she extended her blades from her forearms.
"Oh I am so scared for an outdated version." Flay said as Kevin cocked an eyebrow. "ahh you seem interested Walker." She giggled as she looked up to see twelve things falling to the ground. "Yes Walker, you are no match for the Destroyers 2.0!" Flay called as she charged at the two. Aelan charged as well while Kevin extended his blades while Aelan came in for a swing she missed Flay, as she used Aelan as a catapult and kicked Kevin in the side of the face. While Kevins body began to fly away Flay used her speed to send him harder by using him as a catapult back towards Aelan. Aelan was shouldered in the back as she was forced into a glass display case shattering through it with her body
Stadium:
"And if, I find, the real without the motion
Has surrounded me
And I can't go on
And you are there
The moment that I close my eyes
You comfort me
We are connected
For all of time
I'll never be alone" Nicola sang dancing to the Music.
"Damn" Kevin whispered to himself as in a split second later Flay was standing over his body. Flay picked him up by the collar and raised him above her head.
"YOU AND KIRA WILL PAY FOR LETTING ME DIE!" Flay called as she threw him hard as he landed right on top of Aelan. The two went back and went right through the wall into a rebuilding of an old cathedral as they landed through one of the benches.
"Man was she always like this?" Aelan said sitting up as Kevin rolled off of her.
Stadium:
"And oh, I know, the world of Real Emotion
Has surrounded me
I won't give into it
Now I know, that world
It is the only way my heart can go
I hear your voice calling out to me
You'll never be alone" Nicola sang as the Announcement came on for one last time.
"What can I do for you
What can I do for you
What can I do for you
I can hear you
What can I do for you
What can I do for you
What can I do for you
I can hear you
I can hear you" The announcement called as Nicola made a fist infront of her face. Just as she did Fireworks fired all over the area.
"Sometimes yes and sometimes no. Just depends on who she was with." Kevin commented brushing some splinters off of his shoulder.
"RAGHH" Came Flays voice as she shouldered Kevin and pushed him towards a stone pillar as they both went right through it. Aelan got up fast as she went after the two of them. Flay seen this coming and tried to kick Aelan in the gut but Aelan grabbed her ankle.
"Oh no you don't" Aelan said as she began to twirl the red head around in circles making Flay bash into the benches around her as Alean let her go making her fly towards the front of the cathedral. Flay adjusted her body so that she landed on the wall as though she landed upright on the floor, while looking at the two destroyers.
"Nice try bitch." Flay said as she propelled herself towards her two targets. She landed on her hands right infront of the two. Then she propelled herself and smashed her feet right into the torso of both Aelan and Kevin making them fly to the ceiling. She landed her feet on the ground then jumped after Aelan and grabbing her by the collar. When Aelan hit the ceiling and began to fall as she moved Aelan towards the ground as the two of them fell.
Aelan was the first to hit the ground as Kevin came at her after landing on his feet. His blades came close to Aelan's face as they landed beside her. "Listen Watch where you attack Kevin." Aelan said as Flay was laughing at the two destroyers. Kevin then went running after her as he went in for a horizontal rake at her. Flay ducked under him then kneed him in the gut. As he bent over feeling the pain from the womans attack. Before he knew it though he was grabbed by his jacket and thrown to the head of the cathedral. Flay jumped up grabbing onto his collar as he got embeded into the side of the building. Flay then used him as a catapult once again as she seen Aelan coming at her but hit her instead. Flay kicked Aelan into the gut as Aelan and Kevin fall to the ground as Flay landed on her feet.
"Oh Come On you two, from what I heard from the others you both were the best." Flay said as she shrugged at the two. She then looked at the sky to see a Dragon Mobile suit hover above as it dropped a golden and red mobile suit on the ground. "ITS ABOUT TIME!" She called to the Dragon mobile suit.
"Well re entry is a bitch to do in a mobile suit" came the familar voice to Aelan and Kevin. "Ahh I see the two of you remember me." He said again. "Its me its me, Jack Carter but I now go by Bahamut old friends." He said as Flay ran into the mobile suit.
Kevin was in shock to hear the name as he remembered the battle Chris had with the man as Chris fired the Buster Cannon to Carters Cockpit. "No you were Killed by Chris nineteen years ago!" Kevin called as Aelan looked at the mobile suit really pissed like. Just then the two boxes that were carried were dropped into the Ocean.
In the Ocean the two boxes exploded as two amphibious mobile suits exit them and went for the ORB Fleet. One of the two mobile suits looked like a Giant Squid as it had the Tentacles as the Legs and a normal Gundam upper body. The other Machine had a long snake like body for its Legs and the upper body of a Gundam as well.
The Alarm around ORB was blaring. Many people were already leaving as Chris was getting Cagalli, Meer, Lacus, Maria, Raymond, Erika and Nicola to their Shuttles underneath the area. Chris Paired them with each other as he got Cagalli and her daughter in one. He then put Meer and Erika in another then Lacus and Raymond. Chris then got Nicola into the last one, the Red one. "Hey Dad what is going on?" Nicola asked as the Shuttles took off towards The Archangel, Silverwind, and the new Archangel Class ship for the new units the Guardian.
As the Shuttles blast on through the tunnels, Meer and Erika's suits got by but then a rock slide blocked the other two. "Damn" Cagalli said as she and the other three got out. "Wheres Chris and Nicola?" Cagalli asked as Lacus and Raymond shrugged.
"Come on this way, we are close to the Guardian and the military." Raymond said as he opened a door to enter the Military base. A red Alert alarm was going off as two of the new machines that were moving to a launch pad. The White Lighting and Reaper Gundams.
In the Cockpits Ken and Garret charged up their phase shift armors. The White lightning was a white and had lightning bolts on it. The Reaper took the color of dark green and had its staff in its hand. "For the Protection of ORB!" The two called as the machines took off.
As they went Cagalli looked at Maria and Raymond. "Both of you go take those machines" She said pointing at Hyperion and the Onyx.
"But we don't know" They started until Lacus shook her head.
"No we know you two practice with the others. ORB needs you to protect it. We will be on the Ship and see you later." Lacus told them as they nodded and hugged their parents.
"Be safe you two." Cagalli said as the two kids ran to the two mobile suits.
"Alright Cagalli lets go!" Lacus said as the two girls ran to the Guardian ship.
Meer and Erika on the other hand got to the Silverwind as Meer rushed Erika onto the ship without thinking about her other child and her husband. "Mom what about dad and Nicola?" She asked.
"Don't worry dear they will be alright." Meer said as they got on the ship.
Outside on two motorbikes Kevin and Aelan were rushing home as they pulled into the garage but they hit a button to allow them to go even further. The two ended up in a mobile suit hangar as the Ragnarok and the Sturmfalke Custom waited. But they also saw the Strike Freedom preping for Launch. "Its about time you two!" Kira called as the Strike took off. Kevin and Aelan wasted no time chatting as they got into their mobile suits.
In space on the Minerva II. "Guy's!" Meyrin called. "Mobile armor detected and several mobile suits coming our way!" She called.
Athrun appeared on screen then. "Get all ships to launch their machines and Launch these ones." Athrun ordered as he was siting in the Infinite Justice. "Luna Shinn I want the two of you to go to Earth and Help ORB" Athrun ordered as Shinn and Luna nodded.
"Alright, I want the Abyss Sil" Luna called as Meyrin nodded as the Abyss attachment began to prep its Launch. "Impulse!" Luna called.
"Destiny" Shinn called.
"LAUNCHING" The two yelled as their mobile suits launched.
"Gordon, Olania, Yzak, Dearka, and I will take out the Ships and this attack force." Athrun called as his Infinite Justice Launched. Then he was followed by the Duel X which went from a dull gray to a brilliant Silver. Then the Buster X came out as its main body was a Dark Green and the rest of its body was Red. Then last but not least the two Gelgoogs launch from their spots.
"Lets Do IT!" they all called.
Just at the same time the Ragnarok and the Sturmfalke began to Launch.
"Ragnarok Launching!" Aelan called as her red Mobile launched.
"Sturmfalke Launching!" Kevin then called as his mobile suit took flight as well.
In the Garage of Chris and Nicola's place the two exited. "Dad why are we here?" Nicola asked her father.
"Easy our mobile suits are here." Chris said as he took her to an elevator. The next thing she knew he was taking her to the Dynasty jet. "Here this is yours, And don't let the onboard computer worry you." Chris told her as Nicola was clueless when Chris closed the hatch on her.
"What the hell." Nicola said as the machine came to life.
"Hello" A mechanical voice said.
"Hello" Nicola said as at the same time Raymond and Maria were having the same conversation. "Who is this?" She asked.
"The Names Max and I am the onboard computer for each machine." Max said. "Now Nicola are you familiar with the multipurpose mobile suit?" Max asked as she nodded. "Good now time for the first flight of this thing and in combat." The machine said as Nicola looked around.
"Nicola are you ready?" Chris called as she came on his screen.
"What the hell is this dad?" She asked.
"The weapon used to protect. You machine is based off of the Strike and Impulse Gundams. And this time it is your turn to fight and protect the people you care about as I am." Chris told her. "I will see you out there." Chris said as above him opened. "Silver Wing Gundam Launching!" Chris called as the Machine Blasted off.
A/N: Ok, now the Band called Trinity will launch Next chapter. Sorry if the end seemed rushed because it was. Well see yeahs next time, where the first battle to defend ORB commences.
White Shadow: Ha ha, in this thing Flay hates Kira's Guts lol. But who knows, Kira may be able to get her back to her real self. Well it may be weird as she has only aged a few years compared to Kira who has aged 21 years since the last time he saw her.
Infinite: Congrats on the disengagement, hopefully that you two will still be together to get the real deal down. Not an arranged one. About that Raymond didn't choose the Strike or Freedom, well get a load of some similarities in the Gundam he chose and the Gundam he uses. And about your idea of O and R well we will have to wait and see if they do or not lol. As only one pairing of the new guys have been made so far. Dante and Maria I mean.
Ultimate CB: Hmm Kira able to defeat the Destroyers. He may be able to in a mobile suit, but he would have no chance on the ground, as far as what I have seen of Kira anyways. Heck Kira even had trouble against the Living CPU's. But he is indeed still the Ultimate Coordinator, but he has to deal with Destroyers. Heck the Nexus family was designed to Kill the Destroyers if anything bad happened and well, even they are having trouble against this new batch.
Blitz: Hey man its been a while, and yes as you could see in this chapter Flay has her own Gundam
Solid: Alrighty longest reviewer time to get to work lol
Yeah I noticed to that Ultimate CB hasn't read Brothers In Arms and which I suggest people do to learn about certain characters and what some of their capabilities are.
Kevin's reaction to Flay yeah that was what I was going for, and I think I caught Kira's rather well. Its funny though that I even made Aelan know Flay as she was a behind the scenes character for Gundam Seed.
About the Newtype, its a special Gene that certain people had. at Seedgenesis .net if you look at Al Da Flaga's profile on that page it says he had a special Newtype Gene the next step in Human Evolution. More can be explained with that site. And no Ken is not Agumented, do you realy think that Kevin and Aelan would want their son to go through the pain they did. But he does have some Genetic type advances do to Aelan's and Kevin's own Genes.
About Meryl's eyes, I sort of changed them because when someone says gray eye's I always think that the person is blind so I changed it to silver. And I may have to read Moments again to find out lol. Well hope you enjoyed the Destroyer battle and the revealing of the other destroyers.
Zelinko: Yeah I know Chars version is a faster version of the original, but for now lets just see how they do against the Gundam Wing's Taurus mobile suits.
