Hey Everyone

I had a horrible stomach today

But i manage to update at 12:00 in the night

Just for all of you

he twist will happen

And Aiden is about to be sliced

Until...

Well you'll see

Enjoy

It was another day, while Cagalli was in the PLANTs; Athrun was pacing around in his office…again.

He was anxiously waiting for Richard to give him an answer, on whether Aiden was on that ship or not, because Orb was in a state of panic, after hearing on how much nuclear power was on that simple ship. So they needed to act, before the other team did, so Orb wouldn't fall, because he knew as well as the others, that if Orb was gone, the world's peace would vanish instantly as well. And soon everyone would start hating one another and the ending result a war.

"Athrun," Kira said running in.

"What happened?" Athrun said stopping his pacing

"One thank god you stopped pacing and two, another attack, low density nuclear attack at Onogoro," Kira said, "And last, we believe Aiden is not on that ship, because that gundam left, and two, it's not likely because we haven't had any threats. Now it's your turn to decide whether you want to attack or not."

"How much time can you give me," Athrun asked

"Half an hour," Kira said

"I'll give my response by then," he said as Kira left the room, and Athrun started his pacing once again.

Athrun sat down and really began to think about that threatening ship. They didn't have much time left and according to the fact, there could not have been a chance that Aiden was on that same ship. The possibilities were doubtful.

Athrun stood up and made his decision, unfortunately using his brain.

He walked out of his office and went through the hallways and reached the room exactly half an hour later, Kira left his room.

"Well?" Richard asked

"Well attack it, but give them seven hours, to surrender and if they pursue us before hand, we'll attack, but we won't by any means destroy that ship. I need a few answers to some questions. And only the Archangel and Eternal shall fight in this battle. I'll be going along on my own gundam," Athrun said sitting down and explaining his plan.

"Athrun, how much damage are we going to inflict on that ship?" Kira asked

"Until they surrender," Athrun said

"And if they don't," Lacus said to oppose the view point.

"Then we finish it off, but only if they clearly state a valid reason," Athrun said ending the quick meeting, "Send a message of the given time of seven hours, and most likely we should all prepare for battle."

Athrun stood up and left quickly, thankfully no one stopped him to question.

Kira looked at Athrun retreating figure and began to type the message, quickly reviewing it and sending it off, Kira left with Lacus, leaving the empty room.

Kira informed everyone to prepare for battle and everyone worked on preparing for the battle to come ahead. Murre went over the Archangel and made sure all of its weapon were in top shape and loaded. Lacus did the same for the Eternal. Kira checked the Strike Freedom and everyone followed.

Athrun himself went over the Infinite Justice. He knew those people weren't going to be easy. That ship was about twice the size of the Archangel and was still fast. It could disillusion and the amounts of mobile suit were close to 30 along with 5 Gundams. As well extra feature, they all knew how difficult this fight was going to be.

However, Athrun's mind never managed to get out of the chance that maybe there was a chance that his son could have been on that ship.

(Now you all are wondering what ship received this Message, well here's the twist and moment of truth!)

Ann had just come back from checking Aiden for the umpteenth time and couldn't help but think of her suffering son at the base. She was also concerned why Vera hadn't contacted her in the past week. She was becoming restless at extended day waiting for any message to pop up and tell her what that devil was planning.

Aiden reminded her so off how her son would used to act when he was younger and that's smile was definitely from Cagalli, and she could just tell by looking at that child that it was indeed Athrun and Cagalli Zala's child. The maturity of Athrun and his serene, cool, introverted disciplined self, but Cagalli's cuteness sensitivity & fiery heart, and sudden attitude. That child could surprise anyone.

Ann walked back to her office, when someone told that there was an e-mail waiting to be received.

Ann nodded and immediately checked the message, which made her shocked beyond words

To Captain of unnamed vessel,

We hereby inform you, that due to the threat your vessel has inflicted upon our nation of no valid reason, to ask for your immediate surrender to the nation of Orb. After several bombing of low density nuclear attack, your ship and its attack have cross the limit tolerability. We give you seven hours to respond to this message to yield, and if we receive no reply, we are given no choice due to the safety of our people for your vessel to be eliminated. Any movement from this ship of absconding shall not be abided and our people are on hold to attack. We request a response as soon as possible.

Sincerely,

Kira Yamato

Prime Minister of Orb

Everyone in the control room read the message along with Captain. She was shocked beyond words. Even if she could have told the nation of Orb anything, she was not permitted and so wasn't anyone else.

"What are we going to do?" a person asked, "We can't beat their army."

"Nor, can we surrender," another said

Ann dropped her head down and said, "Contact Cagalli and Ethan as quickly as you can and transfer them over to me as quickly as you can."

"Will do ma'am," Akina said as she sat down to contact Cagalli with the radio signals.

Ann walked quickly to her office and using the intercom she said, "All hand start preparation of oncoming battle. All hands should be at their designated spot within six hours."

Turing off the intercom she sat down placing her hand onto her hand. Cagalli would probably make within the middle or the end of the battle.

"Captain we got her on the line," Akina said

"Ok transfer her here," Ann said

"Hello," Cagalli said in an annoyed voice

"Cagalli, come back fast before this ship goes down with Aiden in it," She said.

"What," She said dropping the phone instantly

"You have seven hours," She said loud enough for Cagalli to here as the line was cut and now the survival of this ship and Aiden, depended on Cagalli's voice.

"Aiden," Cagalli said she ran to the car stuffed a shocked Ethan on one side, and sat in the driver's seat.

"Cagalli?" Ethan said

"What," Cagalli said starting the engine

"One calm down and two do you know where the heck you are going to go," He continued.

I took a breath and said, "No, so what the heck are you waiting for move it," kicking him out of the passenger seat and sat there myself as Ethan angrily brushed himself off, but didn't have time to argue and quickly sat down the driver's seat and roared the engine before speeding away.

We drove for the longest hours in my life and we reached the port. I grabbed his hand and rushed through the crowd, ignoring the looks people gave me. I heard some people say my name, but I clearly ignored their voices and kept my thoughts on making sure to reach Aiden, before that group destroyed the ship. No one was going to take my baby from me.

Ethan caught up as I slowed down and I said, "How are we supposed to get back to our suits?"

He took a breath, grabbed my hand this time and ran to the end of the port and he said, "Get in."

"Is this ours?" I said

"No, but we have no time to care," he said

I nodded and entered sitting in the co-pilots seat.

I saw Ethan immediately hack into the system and open the gate to get into space, illegally. I fastened my seat belt as he flew the shuttle up and took us out into space, sounding the alarms.

Soon we had two mobile suits on our tail and I pressed on the extra accelerator, and targeted the gun surprisingly on the ship.

I first aimed for their cockpits, but thought against it, so I took out their guns first and managed to get a leg and an arm, before they started to shoot at us. I quickly took out that gun as Ethan said, "Get ready, and change."

I nodded as quickly placed my battle suit on and came back saying, "Ok I'll drive go change."

He smiled and said, "They'll be on our tail in 30 seconds, we reach our Gundams in 20, I won't make it."

"You have to," I said feeling sadness fill me

"You're the one who has to go on, you need to make it for Aiden," he said getting up and pushing me out of the shuttle as I touched my gundam.

"It was nice to know you Cagalli Zala," he said as the mobile suit sliced the shuttle destroying it instantly and Ethan as well. I couldn't but let out a few tears.

I entered my cockpit quickly, trying to stabilize myself. I stayed there and with fury in my heart. I took out the two mobile suits. Ethan, how could he?

I jerked and continued to cry, when I remembered my son. I needed to make it for Aiden. It really was me who needed to go on. I shot Ethan's gundam and flew through space. My tears for Ethan didn't stop though. He was a really good friend.

"It's been seven hours Athrun and no respond," Kira said from the Eternal

"Then we have no choice now do we? We have to attack," Athrun said getting his helmet and entering the Eternal.

And so this was it, Athrun thought, I could very well be attacking a ship with my son on board.

"Athrun," Lacus said, "We won't destroy the ship. I know how you feel. You love Orb, but we all need to remember that you could probably have a son on borad that ship, so don't worry. Nothing will happen to it, okay, we just need to leave it to a point where they will surrender."

"And if the don't," Athrun said, "You know those people won't Lacus, so the end result will be us, maybe my own hands destroying the ship."

"If we know for sure Aiden's on board, we'll leave it alone, that's a promise, whether Orb is on the line or not," Kira said

Everyone in the background agreed with Aiden.

"Orb is a thing, it can be replaced, and nothing will happen to it, as for my nephew, he's irreplaceable," Kira said

"Thanks everyone," Athrun said

"You've gone through too much Athrun. You've lost more then everyone, you can't lose Aiden as well," Lacus said

He nodded and entered as the Eternal flew first out of the port, followed by the Archangel.

Ann saw the ships approaching and had no clue what would happen.

She ordered every single mobile suit to be out and ordered the two Gundams as well. This was it. Hopefully they'd make it, at least for Aiden's sake.

I was almost to the atmosphere. I used my jet to its limit and released the ablative gel. Most of my time would be wasted in going through the atmosphere. I sat back and waited anxiously, my heart at its edge with the concern I had in my heart. I wondered if the battle had started yet. How long would it take for me to penetrate this atmosphere, and hopefully everyone was still in Orb.

Athrun launched his Infinite Justice, followed my Kira in the Strike Freedom, Shinn, Yzak, Dearka, Stellar, Luna, Rey, Auel and Shiho. Several other mobile suits launched as well.

And so the battle begins

Athrun started by taking out one mobile suit and immediately met by the army of power. Kira and the rest started as the Eternal and Archangel started attacking the ship.

Gun fires, explosion, slices and damage filled the air.

Yzak took out another mobile amour and was surrounded by three more. One attacked from behind and Shiho came and blocked an attack. They nodded at each other and started firing.

The front live was difficult to destroy, because of the experience each pilot had and the number.

Athrun took out as many as he could, to reach as quickly and swiftly as he could, without killing too much.

Kira used his DRAGOON system and rapidly took out the front line.

The Archangel fired its Gottfried, but the ship evaded swiftly, hitting it back, but missing. The front line finally collapsed and everyone already tired, headed to finish the second line, but Athrun and Kira managed to hit the ship, damaging it quite a bit.

The Archangel fired the Lohengirn and hit the ships engine and destroying parts of it.

The ship however surprised them by attacking the Eternal and destroyed the left wing and a quarter of its side with huge hyper beam cannon. Kira furious slash the cannon.

Rey came and attacked Kira and he was surprised at how advance Rey was. Shinn managed to follow and Laura came and attacked him. Athrun helped as well.

Laura did a unique trick using her gundam and Shinn said "Have I gone mad, or am I seeing doubles,"

"No," Athrun said analyzing her movements, "She's fast.

Athrun and Shinn were back to back, "So what do we do?" Shinn asked

"We watch for a pattern," Athrun said and ducked a fire from her rifle, "Ok maybe not."

"Wow, I could use a gundam like that," Shinn said

"Shinn, we're in the middle of a battle, think about something," Shiho said yelling

"Okay, there I see it," Athrun said moving forward, watching carefully and shooting at a leg and got it clean.

"Nice job," Laura said through the radio, "but you missed this," taking out his gun

"Damn it," he said and pursued the girl, but Shinn intervened and said, "I'll get her."

Athrun nodded and went to the ship and taking out two of its weapons.

There I made it out, I thought in my mind and I scanned through the Pacific Ocean, sensing that battle had indeed started. I wondered if Aiden was okay. He was on the right side of the ship. Flying in the air, I saw the smoke pilling in the as I saw pieces of mobile suits drifting.

I was almost there.

Athrun sliced threw the back and Kira said, "Athrun I'll do the left, you do the right okay."

Athrun nodded and took out his beam saber and stuck it at the end of the ship on the right side. Aiden was near the front. He cut through the ship slowly as he nearly reached the middle….

A force kicked him.

Athrun looked up at the gundam and looked at the gundam with evil eyes.

"You!" he said

"You little bastard, son of a gun, stupid jerk," I screamed breaking his saber in half and kicking his shin.

Everyone stopped what they were doing to check on the voice they just heard.

"You almost hurt my…your child you idiot," I said pushing him away

"You kidnapped my son," Athrun retorted

"So you attack the ship he's on," I said

"Well, we weren't going to damage, you needed to surrender," Kira said

"This isn't the ship that attacked you jerks, it's the other one," I said angrily

"Why the hell in the first place did you take my son," Athurn said grabbing a hold on me, "When he doesn't mean anything to you, then why take the only reason I even live in this world."

His words went straight to my heart.

"If something were to happen to Cagalli, I don't think I could go on. When we honestly ask ourselves which person in our lives means the most us, we often find that it is those who, instead of giving much advice, solutions, or cures, have chosen rather to share our pain and touch our wounds with a gentle and tender hand. A person who can be silent with us in a moment of despair or confusion, who can stay with us in an hour of grief and bereavement, who can tolerate not knowing, not curing, not healing and face with us the reality of our powerlessness, that is a person who cares. That person as you know is Cagalli and really my world would fall apart and become wrecked. Now that the baby is coming, I think about that same question and even now I can't decide. I mean I love both of them more in different ways. I love Cagalli the most and our little guy is special too. I just don't know."

"You loved both of them didn't you?" I whispered

Athrun didn't say anything. Shocked at what I said he let me go instead.

"I'm sorry," I said, "The house fell on him, and I ran to find him, I heard him crying and I saw that he was bleeding so much. What could I do? Even for the little moments I spent with him, I began to love the child. I went to my ship because we specialized in Halves, and I didn't know Orb so well," starting to cry.

"Ethan died today as well, and when I heard someone was going to attack this ship, all I ever thought about was Aiden. Ethan said that I had to be here at least for him, to stop you all from killing the innocent child. He had nothing to with this. He is still weak from the surgery he had, and I don't know how he is right now so please leave. I'll give Aiden back. And if you have a problem with me taking Aiden, I'm sorry; I didn't know you wanted me to leave the child there to die."

"I'll give him back, I promise, but please for now let him stay on the ship, at least until his ribs are properly joined. He's a very sweet child," I said moving away from Athrun without knowing.

"I didn't know," Athrun said

"So will you?" I said, "Don't worry, Aiden belongs in you arms, not mine. I'll contact you and arrange a meeting to give him back."

"I will, but within a week, I have to let your ship go, but listen we can't just let your group attack," Athrun said

"You think we have a choice," Laura said

"Don't make us laugh," Rey said after

"Then why and how," Kira said

"Only I know that," I said

Ann said, "Thank goodness you made it in time."

"Ann I'm so sorry," I said, "Ethan, the mobile suit. He couldn't make it in time. He called me her. I don't know what to believe. Aiden is he okay?"

"He…well Cagalli he's okay, I kept him near me," Ann said, "And its okay Ethan was tired of this life as well."

"Ann," I said

"Ann," Athrun said

"It's nice to meet you again Mr. Zala," Ann said

Oh
