SailorStar9: After getting Chapter 9 out, this is Chapter 10 of this fic and the end of Season One. (Sighs) Guys and girls, is it too hard for you to leave a review, instead of just putting this fic up on your favorited list and story alerts?

Pairings: Officially, Allelujah/Marie in Season Two. Tieria gains a somewhat romantic attraction to Anina/Sasha between Season One and Season Two.

Standard BS Disclaimers: I do not own Sailor Moon, Gundam 00 or the pairings. If I did, the other Senshi would be as powerful as Sailor Moon and kicking MOTD ass more often and VEDA would have least an anti-hacker program installed. The only thing I do own is the plot.

Chapter 10: Peacecraft Legacy

On the Infinity's bridge...

"This is Michael Trinity, proceeding to return to the Infinity with Nadheeh." Michael opened communications.

"Acknowledged." Anina responded. "Welcome, Zwei, Nadheeh. Now, we'll just have to wait for the others to finish their fights." Come on, guys.

With Johann and Allelujah...

"The Winged One and the Cannon One are hiding behind these asteroids." Sergei informed Soma as they cruised through the asteroid field. Seek them out and take at least one of them down if possible."

"Johann." Allelujah started, the pair of Gundams waited until the two GN-Xs were in close vicinity.

"You sure?" Johann asked.

"Yes." Allelujah nodded.

"Understood." Johann answered and the two Gundams shot out from their hiding spots.

"Here they come!" Sergei warned when he and Soma were faced with the two Gundams.

"Johann, set a direct course." Allelujah instructed and headed straight for Soma's unit. Feet first, he kicked Soma's GN-X.

"Oi, Allelujah, swap with me." Hallelujah demanded.

"Second Lieutenant!" Sergei turned to his subordinate.

"Sorry, but I won't let you interfere with their fight." Johann diverted Sergei's attention by firing his GN Launcher at the older man's unit and forcing Sergei to dodge the energy attack.

"He's moving differently." Soma was shocked when Kyrios switched to its flight mode to avoid getting hit by her attacks. "But how?"

"Things are going to be different now!" Hallelujah, working in tandem with Allelujah , switched back to mobile suit mode and charged with at Soma, shield claw ready to attack. With a slash, he disarmed Soma of her rifle and the pair then engaged in a beam saber fight.

"Why?" Soma demanded, defending herself. "I'm supposed to be the perfect super soldier.

"You just don't get it." Hallelujah sneered. "You're far from being the perfect super soldier. Your quantum brain waves give you super reflexes, but your mind is too sluggish to keep up with that kind reaction speed. You're just acting on instinct, like an animal."

"That's not true!" Soma snapped, firing her GN Vulcans from the GN-X's head.

"That's why I can predict your movements." Hallelujah dodged the barrage. "Reflexes and thoughts must be one." he hovered above Soma. "This synthesis is the mark of a super soldier." using a discarded meteorite as leverage, he straightened Kyrios and activated Trans-Am.

"Damn you!" Soma roared and charged straight at Hallelujah, having retrieved her beam rifle and firing the weapon at Kyrios.

Hallelujah cut off Soma's GN-X's arm with his shield claw and turned, taking out another leg. "This is farewell, woman!" he readied for the finishing blow when Sergei, having escaped Johann, took the blow.

"Now!" Sergei barked. "Do it, Peries!"

With a war cry, Soma bombarded Kyrios with his beam rifle. "Lieutenant Colonel!" with Kyrios battered, she hurried over to Sergei. Forcing her cockpit open, she floated over to Sergei's damaged unit.

"What are you doing?" Sergei demanded when Soma pried open his cockpit. "Never mind about me. Keep fighting."

"I can't." Soma insisted. "If you're gone, I'd be alone."

"Marie..." Allelujah was switched back once he saw who Soma was. "Why... why are you..."

"You..." Johann arrived at the ended fight, Sergei's image popped up on his screen. "The 'Wild Bear of Russia', Sergei Smirnov." he assured. "You let the Princess escape during the Russian Moskva Space Colony massacre ten years ago. And for that, I will not attack you or your subordinate. This is Johann Trinity." he opened communications to the Infinity. "Eins is still functional, proceeding to retrieve Kyrios."

With Setsuna, Lasse and Nena...

"Setsuna, Lasse, my radar picked up a mobile suit signal." Nena reported. "And it's approaching fast!"

"It's a Flag." Setsuna gaped. "With a pseudo solar reactor?"

"Setsuna, move!" Nena moved Drei between Exia and the incoming GN Flag, taking the bombardment of bullets from the other unit's machine gun fire.

"Lasse, take Nena Trinity back." Setsuna pulled out his own beam saber and clashed with Graham's own saber weapon. "I'll handle this!"

"I will avenge my squad's humiliation with this GN Flag." Graham promised.

"He's hailing me." Setsuna opened his communication line. "It's you!" he recognized Graham.

"You're that boy." Graham, too, recognized his opponent. "It certainly seems that you and I were destined to close paths all along. Indeed." he swatted Setsuna off. "We were destined to fight each other. I finally understand." he sliced off Exia's arm. "It was your overwhelming power that stole my heart." he clashed with Setsuna in a beam saber fight. "That feeling I had... it could only be love! But if you go beyond love, it becomes hatred. Just as people turn against each other when they take religious faith too far!"

"If you know that, then why do you still fight?" Setsuna roared, forcing Graham on the defensive and slicing off one of the Flag's legs.

"You're asking a soldier why he fights?" Graham fired back and charged straight at Setsuna with his beam saber.

"You've become twisted." Setsuna snapped after Graham took off Exia's head, he returning the favor by cutting off the Flag's head.

"You made me that way!" Graham slammed a punch onto Exia. "This is because Gundams exist." he kicked Exia off. "That's why I will defeat you." he swore, dodging Exia's rifle blasts. "I don't care about the rest of the world. This is my will!"

"You're part of this world as well!" Setsuna reminded. "You're just forcing your own distorted egos on others."

In the Infinity's bridge...

"Herbert, please open a communication link to the UN transport ship." Anina requested. "This is Sasha Peacecraft of the Infinity. I am addressing the top commanders of the UN forces. My side believes that any further battle in this region is meaningless and therefore have no desire to continue. I ask for your agreement to a ceasefire by both forces, as of this moment. I hereby repeat, my side believes that any further battle in this region is meaningless..."

In Kati's transport ship...

"Fire the retreat flares." Kati instructed.

With Setsuna and Graham...

"Gundam..." Setsuna whispered, both adversaries ended up piercing each other with their beam sabers as the retreat flares lit up the black space.

In the Infinity's bridge...

"Hilda, Herbert, once the UN transport ship exit the battlefield, send the retrieval teams out." Anina instructed.

"Roger." the two operators answered.
