Chapter two:
A Close encounter
In an area close to Lagrange point three, a ZAFT forces ship, the Kardigan floated on its course to Heliopolis. It had been on its way to the colony when they received a video transmission from another ZAFT ship,
"Abort the mission." said a man, with wavy blond hair, and a calm disposition after appearing on the video transmission screen.
He had thin lips but that was about all you could see because if the white mask that covered his eyes and nose. He was about 183cm tall and wore a ZAFT forces commander uniform that consisted of; a long white coat with black trim around the sleeves and shoulders as well as the edges, the pants he wore were also white to match the jacket but you could hardly see them because of the knee high black leather boots, with white trim on the toes that were attached to his legs.
"We have received word from the Supreme council to back down because Heliopolis its self has collapsed." He added calmly each word rolling off his tongue, like water on a waterfall
"Yes Le Creuset." Said another man into a speaker, he had red hair and a thick moustache. "Although we did need to give our new mobile suit pilots, some experience." He responded hesitantly.
"Well I'm afraid you will have to wait until you come across an earth forces ship." Said the man named Le Creuset… Commander Le Creuset.
"Understood" Said the man "I will be on the look out for any activity." He finished with an army salute, and then pushed a button making the video transmission end.
The man walked over to and plopped down in the captain's chair leaving the speaker dangling from the cord to which it was attached.
He sighed, as he looked out the glass window just a few meters away from him.
Looking down at a young officer manning the radar, "Are we picking up any thing?" The captain asked
The officer shook his head "No sir." He replied
"Hmm..." was the captain's only response.
Meanwhile on the Wardro things were going normally Ume, Gina and the other Civilians had been served breakfast down at the cafeteria, as always the food was bland with little taste so it was difficult to tell what it even was.
"Man I hate this." Ume said poking at her food.
"Yeah I know this food makes me want to barf." Gina replied making fake gagging sounds and covering her mouth with her hands.
Ume smiled but still poked at her food, it only looked more and more unappetizing the longer she looked at it.
"I won't be able to eat this." Ume thought pushing her plate away from her, " But I guess food is food no matter how gross it looks." She thought forcing the disgusting food into her stomach; she had known people that who couldn't cook that made better meals this one.
After breakfast they were free to wander the ship as they wished.
Ume had decided she was going to go take a look at the mobile suit the Wardro carried; she had always been rather fascinated with such things and was studying to become a programmer. Although she knew nothing about mobile suit programming, it was top secret of course and a ZAFT weapon, up until Heliopolis had been playing host to the Atlantic federation's secret development of Earth force prototype mobile suits or the "G-weapons". Any how she ambled out to the Cargo deck where it was kept, Ume was awed at the size of it, and it stood about 17.72 meters off the ground. She hadn't really seen one up close before, besides the ones that were fighting in Heliopolis.
"Wow." She whispered under her breath." I wonder what it's like to pilot one…"
Her thoughts were interrupted by one of the mechanics "Hey you!" She called up at her "What are you doing? Civilians aren't allowed out here!"
Ume drew back quickly and left the way she came, "Not allowed here… not there… Geese it's like they're trying to force us to remain in our rooms!" She thought clenching her fists in frustration.
The Wardro had gotten very close to the debris belt in the recent days that the civilians were aboard it, they had almost made it to earth.
Little did they know that just outside the debris belt the Kardigan, was on a collision course with the Wardro, and its captain ready to attack at will.
"Identify that ship!" the captain said to one of the officers sitting a computer.
"It's an earth alliance forces ship commander." Responded the officer
"Good…" The captain chuckled evilly "Call Naomi Sasaki, and Kiki Mori to the bridge. They're time has arrived to prove that they are as skilled Coordinators as they claim to be."
"Yes sir right a way." A young woman at a speaker replied, switching it on she spoke into it "Attention Naomi Sasaki, and Kiki Mori report to the bridge immediately." She said in a raspy tone before switching the speaker off.
Shortly after the announcement two young women strolled on to the bridge.
One was about average height with short raven black hair and bay eyes. She wore a ZAFT crew member's uniform that consisted of: a long red jacket with black trim around the shoulders and sleeves as well as the outer edges, held to her via a white belt wrapped around her middle. She also wore red pants that were nearly covered by knee high white boots with black toes and heels.
The other girl's description was basically the same except she had Brown hair with bangs that fell down over her fore-head and umber eyes, and she was much, much shorter.
"Yes Commander?" Asked the taller girl, standing with perfect posture and her hands at her sides, the shorter one did the same.
" It's time for you two to prove your selves report to your battle stations immediately, there is an earth alliance ship that you must take down before it reaches earth. It is my understanding that it is transporting a mobile suit, and a very powerful one." He finished quickly.
"Yes commander right away!" said the shorter girl before they both turned and marched out of the exit.
In a few minutes a camera went on inside the cockpit of one of the two GINNs on the ship's Cargo deck and the taller girl appeared on the screen of one of the computer operators.
"All right all systems are operational." She said after reading the screen in the cockpit, she was now dressed in a red pilot suit as was the other girl.
"Good luck out there Naomi." Said the man operating the computer.
"Thanks." She responded briefly before exclaiming "This is Naomi Sasaki, ready for take off!" and after also briefly checking the systems in her own GINN, the shorter girl exclaimed "Kiki Mori reporting for take off!" and with that both GINNs were launched at the exact same time.
Heading towards the unsuspecting Wardro, loading their short-ranged missile launchers and their heavy ion cannons, for an attack their plan was to blast it once with both of their weapons for they knew the ship's week spot and could destroy it with a signal blow.
Back on the Wardro, the captain was getting a bit worried, with the presence of the ZAFT ship and all. It was even more alarming that she saw two mobile suits headed directly at them!
"Quick every one battle st-"She commanded before the ship was hit with an energy attack from their ion cannons and shook violently.
Soon an announcement was made over the P.A. system of the ship "All civilians must report to their quarters, we are entering a battle situation." The speaker droned in its robotic sounding voice. "If necessary we will ask all civilians to evacuate the ship using the escape-pods."
"Damn, we missed!" Naomi said into her communication device.
"Yeah we'll fire again but this time we'll get it for sure." Responded Kiki
"Right!" Naomi replied loading her weapons again. They both took another shot at the ship but missed it's week spot.
Meanwhile inside the Wardo the ship's laminated armor was causing it to overheat and causing major damages to the system.
"Make an announcement that every person is to evacuate the ship!" the captain yelled, jumping out of the captain's seat and trying to make her way to the door that lead out of the bridge
Shortly after the announcement was made every one was headed for the escape-pods and soon all the civilians and Wardro personal had evacuated except for the captain, Ume and Gina had just about made it to an escape-pod when they were shoved aside by another civilian " I got to get through!" he said turning just as the door closed.
"Great that was the last one." Gina cried "Now how will we ever stay alive."
"There must be more escape-pods on the other side of the ship, maybe even on the cargo deck. " Ume said grabbing Gina by the wrist and pulling her in that direction.
When they made it to the cargo deck Ume glanced around seeing no escape-pods on this level decided that they must be on the bottom floor. "Come on." she said motioning to Gina to fallow her.
The captain had herd voices out side the cockpit of the Angelus, and poked her head out to see the two girls, "Hey!" She called "Why didn't you find a life-pod and evacuate?"
"That's what we're doing, there are none left!" Ume cried as the ship was hit again almost jerking her over the rail and on to the deck below.
"Well then there aren't any left… just get down here!" The captain called "We'll have to get inside the cockpit." She added motioning for them to come down.
"Okay." Ume nodded, heading for an elevator, with Gina close behind her.
When the elevator came to a stop on the bottom floor, and they raced out with little time to spare. They ran to the mobile suit and were quickly ushered inside the cockpit door by the captain, the captain fallowed behind them only pushing past them to sit in the pilot seat seeing as she was the only one who knew how to pilot it. The captain typed some thing into the computer and soon all the controls flickered on and lit up like lights. "All systems go." The Captain muttered before there was a loud explosion, that sent Ume and Gina flying back into the back wall of the angelus! "Alright kids hang on it's going to be a bumpy ride!" The Capitan exclaimed before launching from the wardro, Explosions boomed behind them. As anyone could see the wardro would probably never fly again for it was nowbroken in to many different parts due to the explosions.
The captain wasn't a very good pilot however; the Angelus stumbled in space and tried to catch its balance.
"What a joke!" Naomi scoffed "A natural is trying to pilot a mobile suit!"
"Yes it is rather pathetic!" Kiki chuckled "Let's put the natural in its place!" She cried firing her heavy assault Machine gun at the Angelus.
The captain fumbled trying to get the mobile suit under control but couldn't and it didn't help her much that they were being fired at either. "Look out!" Ume cried taking hold of a lever and pulled it down and the shield with the anti beam coating shot up protecting the suit.
"What!" Kiki asked astonished "looks like we underestimated this one." She thought
Ume pushed the captain aside "Whoa… it's just like the programming of a complex computer!" She said typing a few things in to the computer. Soon the suit was able to float in space and its weapons were useable!
"Here we go!" Ume said pulling another lever, which made the mobile suit turn around, Ume then pushed a button and pushed a green switch forward, and that made the Angelus hightail it in the other direction. Ume was trying to avoid combat as mush as possible, she wasn't a trained soilder of course!
They couldn't enter the earth's atmosphere with out a ship they would be burned alive! Their only choice was to head for artimis an earth alliance base located on lagrange point three ; it was probably the safest place in space any ways because of its umbrella like force field called the umbrella of artimis.
"Get back here!" Kiki screamed after the fleeing Angelus. "I'm not done with you yet!"
"I'll cut it off!" Naomi said coming down from a higher altitude it seemed that it was closeting in on the Angelus but Ume flipped another switch that made them go even fast, much faster than the GINNs could go.
"Just a little more!" Ume thought "We'll lose them in the debris of Heliopolis!"
Soon they came up on the sight that was once Heliopolis, but now was a field of debris perfect for eluding enemies, the angelus ducked behind a large piece of debris and headed further in with the two GINNs close on its tail.
When Ume thought it enough she flew the Angelus out of the debris and not sighted by the two GINNs.
The captain stared at Ume wide-eyed "Are you…a Coordinator?" she stammered pointing at her, Gina also found herself at a lose for words, she was just sitting on the floor of the Mobile suit gaping and trying to comprehend what had just happened.
Ume was silent and didn't answeer the captain and as they came up on artimis the awkward silence carried on…!
