Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron and Coral
Chapter 1
Choice to be the devil
So, I've been thinking of doing a crossover between these two franchises and having really gotten in to IBO, I figured I'd go ahead and give it a shot. Just a fair warning there will be discrepancies in some of the Gundams, particularly what forms of them are used being either the older forms or combos of different forms. With that out of the way... Let's kick it up.

Within a wasteland found on the planet New Earth walked a brown haired boy in a white and red jacket carrying a white and red board with a green wheel on the front.
As the boy, Renton Thurston continued to walk. He looked up to notice rain beginning to fall down.
"Looks like I'll have to find a place to rest until the weather clears up." Renton said to himself before he used the light waves known as trapars to fly up to a cave he spotted in a cliff side.
Just as Renton was about to enter the cave, he took notice of a small military outpost.
"They're probably preparing for that trap Charles told me about." Renton said to himself, lamenting the fact that there was nothing he could do at that time.
Renton then made his way in to she cave and lied down on the wall. "What am I going to do? Without an LFO there's no way I can stop them and give Eureka and the others a better chance." He said before he closed his eyes.
Suddenly the flash of a green eyed armored face played through his mind, shocking his eyes wide open.
"What was that?" Renton asked as he stood up walked further in to the cave.
Once he reached the back chamber of the cave. Renton looked in shock at the image of the face he had seen in his vision. The face of a massive white machine with red and blue accents, golden horns and a blue object on the helmet, and red shoulder pads with white flower symbols on them.
"What in the world are you?" Renton asked.
His entire life, Renton had trained as mechanic. As such, he was well versed in almost every known kind of mech used on this planet. But he had never seen anything like this.
Renton then glanced to the side to see a monitor on a table. Turning it on, he was met with the image of a man with bronze hair and large eyes.
"Hello. My name is Akatsuki Augus." The man spoke before moving his gaze as if he was looking to the machine. "The Mobile Suit you see here is called 'Barbatos'. Before I was born. He aided my father in a war to bring equality to the Earth and Mars. But what my mothers always told me was more important to him was to protect his family. In that regard I made the decision to send him and several of his kind, the Gundams to this New Earth. While I hope that it is a world that doesn't need war. But I know better. Whoever you are. I hope you share in my father's ideals. I hope you are a person who in order to protect their family, would become a devil." Akatsuki finished.
Renton then looked up at the face of the imposing mech as began to think as to whether or not he should take it.
That night, Renton slept as the rain grew in to a chaotic storm. Renton then began to stir as the lightning came down.
(Dream)
Renton found himself standing in a burning hall way.
"Hello?" Renton called out before heard strained coughing. He then turned to see young blue clad blonde man coughing up blood. "Brother Doggie!" He called before he ran and fell to his knees next to the young man.
"Where... were you?" Doggie asked before disappearing in a cloud of ash.
"You could have stopped this." A woman's voice said before he turned to see a black haired woman with a pink flower mark on he left cheek.
"Ms Talho." Renton whimpered as Talho met the same fate as Doggie.
"Renton!" A voice called out before Renton turned once more to see a girl with viridian hair holding three children in her arms before the ground under her.
"Eureka!" Renton called out before he ran to try and grab them only to see a squad if blue cycloptic mechs take aim at the four and...
(Dream end)
"NO!" Renton shouted as he shot up. He then ran out of the cave to look at the outpost as they began to get back to work with the storm letting up. Taking a moment to look down at his hand, his eyes hardened before he tightened his fist, his choice now clear.
Storming once more in to the back of the cave, Renton's eyes locked with Barbatos.
"Okay then. Make me the devil." Renton said.
Renton then looked over the specs of Barbatos to have all the knowledge needed in order to pilot it.
In the past, use of Barbatos and others of its kind required archaic machines and a highly dangerous surgery. However, the dangerous presented by the surgery and the after effects leading paralysis in many who under went it, a new system was developed that would connect at several areas in the body and connect to the nerves system that way.
His research complete, Renton moved the computer in to a storage compartment within Barbatos.
Down at the outpost, several KLF mech units were loading up in to an air ship. Suddenly the cliff crumbled as Renton stepped out inside Barbatos. He then grabbed a large rifle from the left scapula and opened fire on the KLFs before using the thrusters on the legs to jump incredibly high.
Taking notice that the airship was about to take off, Renton holstered the rifle and pulled a bat from the back of Barbatos' waist which then opened up, showing a chain blade. He the then thrust the weapon forward as it clamped down on to the wing and tore through it as the holding point for the rifle raised up before it discharged and hit the engine of the airship, causing it to explode.
Inside the cockpit of Barbatos, Renton scanned a nearby building for life signs before taking some of the debris from the ship and threw it to the entrance of the building to block anyone from coming out. He then pulled a sword from the right scapula and duel welled it with the saw bat to tear through the remaining KLFs.
The battle won, Renton took aim at the long range com tower and blasted it before looking around.
"Okay. Time to move out." He said before he took notice of one of the fallen boards of the fallen KLFs before an idea came to him and he grabbed a couple of them.
(Some time later)
A young black haired man clad in a sweater was sitting at his computer when an alert suddenly came up.
Upon opening the file, his eyes widened at the image of Barbatos in battle. He then quickly reached for a phone before he quickly began moving.
"Will! It's Dom. We have a situation. There's a new Gundam active. I just got images of it attacking a State Army outpost." The young man said as he entered an elevator.
"So, what do want to do? Do you want to track this guy down and stop him?" A blonde man asked from the porch of a small farm house.
"I'm not sure." Dominic admitted as the elevator stopped. "Lately I've been having this feeling that something terrible about to happen and that it's connected to Colonel Dewey's plans."
"You've been talking about that for a while. Have you gotten any more information on it?" Will asked.
"Only that a lot of innocent people will get killed by him and his harem of child sociopaths. The one thing I know for sure is that he has to be stopped." Dominic said, his conviction growing with every step he took.
"Then I'm on my way." Will said as he stood up and began walking to a barn.
"Okay. I'll set up some equipment for Martha. Take care." Dominic said before hanging up and looking at a large blue and black mech with a large V-Finn helmet, thrusters on the knees, hand guns housed in the codpiece, and twin swords held within scabbards with three holes each.
"Looks like the people of the world are going to need the help of the Gundams once again, Vidar." Dominic said as the violet eyes of the Gundam lit up slightly.
(Theme song)
The camera panned over Renton as image flashed in sets of two. First between Barbatos' claws and sword, then between the rifle and bat, and finally between the helmet and cockpit.
:Just wild beat! Communication! While we are... pounded by the rain. I want to show you... this new feeling for you. This unfaded passion I feel with my body tonight!:
Renton looked up to the sky as the camera swooped over him, Dominic, Will, Doggie, and Gidget.
:I can hold... you're damp shoulders close... and I'll just keep on holding until you're warm.:
Renton stood atop Barbatos while running maintenance as Eureka watched him from the stairs of the hanger.
:Your fingers tremble as I hold your hand. Tell me what exactly are they searching for.:
Will sat at Martha's bedside while holding the hand of his catatonic wife.
:Even if... it's in broken speech I still want you to tell me the pain that you feel.:
Gidget leaned against Doggie as the two of them looked up at Vual and Dentalian respectively.
:Tough you pretend that you're pains wearing off, it still doesn't mean you're an adult now.:
Dominic was sitting on the shoulder of Vidar while staring at picture of Anemone.
:How I want to just protect that look in you're eyes. Just believe in love that changes all of the sadness to strength from inside.
Talho looked at Eureka and the Gekko's Gundam pilots with concern before an alarm went off.
:Just wild beat! Communication! Don't be scared... or fear anything! Because there's no one... that'll take away from... all of our feelings we share of today.
Barbatos sliced through several KLF as Vidar stabbed an exploding blade in to a State Army ship, Vual fought a group of KLF's back to back with Dantalion, and Flauro fired off its rail canons.
:Just wild beat! Communication! While we are... pounded by the rain. I want to show you... this new feeling for you. This unfaded passion I feel with my body tonight!:
Barbatos linked up with Nirvash and fought against Bael in the sky before a Kute class Coralian formed behind Barbatos and the silhouettes of two winged Gundam could be seen arriving from it.
