Chap. 1

Transport Shuttle, midway between colony L1 and Space Ring.

Inside, Relena Dorlian was gazing out into space. Seated next to her, her father, Vice Minister Dorlian was finishing some papers regarding a proposal to move the colonies closer to the Earth for better protection against the Radham.

The colony citizens are so independent. They truly believe that they can survive on their own. But the longer they stay separate, the greater the risk for all of us. Still, we can't force them. It is their home after all. Their choice. He then looked over to Relena. I just hope we don't all regret it.

"Enjoying the view, Relena?"

"I suppose."

"What's wrong? Aren't you glad to be back on the earth?"

Relena turned, "No. Not a bit."

"I'm sorry that I couldn't spend any time with you, but my work keeps me busy."

"Next time, why don't you find a way to leave yourself some quality time?"

The shuttle continued on its course toward the Earth. It was later joined by another shuttle also coming from the L1 colony and a military shuttle. On board was none other than ace soldier, Zechs Marquise.

"So the secret weapon is on one of those shuttles."

The pilot spoke back, "Yeah, but which one?"

"The second one. It came from the less populated part of the L1 colony. The weapon would be more easily stored there. It has to be kept secret after all."

"Right."

The three ships continued their descent toward Earth. Suddenly, the second shuttle was hit by an energy blast and damaged. Above them, a group of Radham was coming at the three ships, attacking wildly. The first shuttle took a few blasts while the second sustained massive damage. Only the military ship was untouched.

"All units assemble immediately!"

Zechs, along with two other soldiers entered the exit hatch and into their Sol-Tekkasuits. Two Ares types and one Leo type. They launched out and began attacking the Radham.

"Keep your sights focused. We need to get them away from the two shuttles."

The three Sol-Tekkas quickly zoomed around and fired. Their shots were accurate, destroying Radham with every shot. However, the Radham managed to get by and attack the first shuttle. Now that one was taking damage. Inside, everyone screamed under the attack and Relena was pressed against the wall. Her father took a hard blow from some falling debris and was knocked out cold. Relena tried to reach him, but the ship rocked under another attack and Relena was again pushed against the wall. She moved up again, slowly and that's when her eye caught a glint of light. Looking out a window, she saw a bright glow shoot out of the second shuttle and head toward the Radham.

What is that?

Meanwhile, the Sol-Tekkas were holding their own against the Radham. But before they could fight any further, a beam shot through one of the Radham, obliterating it instantly.

"So that's the weapon? It's a Tekkaman!"

The tekkaman was colored in blue and red, holding a standard lancer weapon. On its back were two protruding wings. The tekkaman wasted no time in destroying the Radham, slicing then into cold cuts. While it fought, the Sol-Tekkas watched in awe.

"So that's what the weapon is."

"Shall we capture it, sir?"

"Not yet. Wait until it finishes off the Radham. We can get it once its energy is low."

The tekkaman continued its onslaught on the Radham, slaughtering any Radham that came close until they were all gone.

"We'll get him!"

"Wait, something's wrong."

The two soldiers attacked the tekkaman with their beam guns, pelting it with sheers of energy. However, the tekkaman wasn't even damaged.

What? Not a scratch. Not even the Space Knight tekkamen could have stood up to an assault like that without some damage.

The tekkaman then turned around to them and stretched out its arm. A long protrusion appeared and it began to fill with energy.

A Voltekka!

A massive beam fired out and destroyed the two soldiers in a flash of light.

What kind of power is that?

Zechs shot toward the tekkaman at full speed. The tekkaman was caught by surprise as Zechs tackled him. Zechs quickly placed his particle cannon on him and set it to explode. Moving back, he watched as the cannon exploded on the tekkaman, sending him plummeting to Earth. But he managed to grab hold of the first shuttle, which was also crashing down to Earth and in moments, both had disappeared into the atmosphere.

"Lieutenant, are you alright?"

"Yeah, but that tekkaman won't be as lucky."

"Sir, the armor of the tekkaman was unlike anything seen before, even with the Space Knights. It is possible that it may have been constructed from gundamium alloy."

"I see. We have to get to the surface and see if there's anything left. We may have something to study. If the armor is gundamium, then there's a possibly of that."

"Roger."

Zechs ignited his booster and flew back inside the ship. As he did, he was deep in thought about the new tekkaman.

So they created...a gundam tekkaman.

On Earth, a lone figure was looking up into the sky as though he had seen the battle himself. His shades covered the deep thoughts that were entering into his mind.

And so it begins.
