I am almost completely over the flu and am listening to the beer song as I write this. I may as well be a new demon lord I feel so good. This chapter will be different from the other two, mainly because I am taking a break from Zeon for a while. The mobile armor will not be addressed for a while, except for the RX-78Gpo3 Gundam Dendrobium Orchis/Stamen, which is technically a mobile suit and a mobile armor. There are actually quite a few mobile suits and I am slightly nervous as to how I am going to come up with data for them all, but I'll burn that bridge when I get to it. There is actually one federation mobile suit that I flat ou hate, and it is the most famous one of the One Year War. I won't say what it is since you all obviously know. However I need to start this, so: Ready... Set... Begin.
I woke up slightly later than I wanted, and that would take time away from my tests. I hurried with my shower, and got dressed as quickly as I could without mishap. I grabbed my briefcase and a bottle of water and left the hotel.
I had to run to the museum as well since the bus that I usually took broke down. This did not deter me however, since I probably could make it to the museum with shortcuts at about the time I planned to get there anyway.
I was walking through an alleyway when three men with knives decided that I was rich, trying to steal my equipment. They had not a cllue who I was apparently. I tried to reason with them but they just had to have my briefcase. I let the first one have it, right in the jaw, followed by my left shin to his ribs. The second ran at me as I had expected. My leg still in his buddy, the briefcase still in the air, I moved the case to the top of his head, and as soon as my leg touched the ground, the two of them fell. I tried to explain that the case was gundarium coated with synthetic leather but before I could say any more than gundar the last goon attacked and was met by my right foot to his front teeth. He fell unconcious and I decided to finish my walk to the museum, which opened in five minutes.
I jogged the remaining distance and made it just as Ms.Heart was walking up to the door. We exchanged greetings and I left to test the ground combat GM. something I was looking forward to after fighting those fools in the alley.
Ground GM Test results: 'The GM was a bit sluggish, but was able to easily handle the tests. The machine gun was more powerful than the Zaku model but the beam rifle was mainly just for piercing, more like a laser than a beam. Notable flaws riddle this suit however, such as the lack of thrust capacity beyond movement enhacement, similar to the gouf. This mobile suit would be pretty much an antique Leo in my opinion. Rating: 3/10. Personal opinion: Use as backup for the Zaku is about all I think this suit is good for.'
After finishing the test of the GM, I walked it back to the hanger when I thought I saw movement in front of the museum. I dismissed it as a glitch in the sensors. I settled the GM back into place and as I got out I noticed Ms.Heart walking over to her office from the testing grounds. I smiled thinking that she enjoyed watching me pilot these mobile suits.
I am a veteran of the war involving the Gundam pilots and Milliardo Peacecraft. I had piloted a personally built Gundam, which I still have. I sent for the Gundam, which should be here by tomorrow. I actually fought Milliardo at one point in the conflict, though it was brief, but as I started to gain the upper hand, Heero Yuy stepped in and finished the battle for me as I shot down countless mobile dolls. Being a newtype has its benefits, but I can't really let too many people know about it yet.
I walked around for a moment before deciding to test the GMs' space faring counterpart. This mobile suit has always intrigued me, though I still don't know why.
Space GM Test results: 'This GM is much better than its ground stuck brethren, being faster and physically more powerful. The beam spray gun could be more powerful, especially if this suit is supposed to be a mass produced Gundam. The shield itself provides great cover and the addition of vulcans puts me at ease, knowing that if I lost the beam gun and the beam saber, I would not have to fight purely hand to hand. Upgrades for this mobile suit include higher mobility thrusters and an enhanced beam weapon. Rating: 6/10. Personal opinion: The RGM-79 is a solid mobile suit that could be used in place of the Leo. It doesn't stand up to the Gundam it supposedly was modeled after, but still has it's own merit.'
I had recharged the beam weapons and was on my way to return the GM to its place when the back wall of the museum broke away revealing a Zaku II, Dom, and Chars' Z'gok. I realized that the goons that attacked me were after my research data. They surrounded me and began taunting me. I realized that the GM could handle them, but only if they didn't react fast enough. I grabbed the shield and the gun as the Zaku ran at me. The Z'gok jumped above me, and the Dom used the Flash device. I had modified the camera to negate the flash but the Zakus Heat hawk destroyed the Beam spray gun, and the Z'gok had pierced the shield. I began to worry at this point.
The Z'gok was readying the torpedos, the Zaku prepped a handful of Cracker grenades, and the Dom readied the bazooka. I jumped as they all fired and landed behind the Zaku, activating the last of the crackers and stealing its machine gun. As I rocketed away I noticed the Zaku frantically trying to get the crackers out of the belt, but it was too late. The crackers destroyed the back of the Zaku and I knew the pilot had only a minimal chance of survival. I turned to the Z'gok which was readying the torpedo launchers again. I figured the torpedos would damage the shield easier with the hole so I threw it at the Z'gok, which promptly found itself on the wrong end of the shields shrapnel. the launchers were damaged now to the point they would have to be replaced. The Dom fired the bazooka, to which I simply side stepped as I drew the Beam saber. The stray rocket blew the left arm off the Z'gok, reducing its effectiveness further.
I was preparing to cut the bazooka in half when a large golden light bathed the Z'gok, destroying it instantly. (This is where the diary part cuts out. I am doing this ahead of schedule. Hope you like this.) "Zero, nice shot." A large Gundam landed next to the GM, the Dom now lowering its cannon in sheer terror. The Gundam is none other than the infamous Wing Gundam Zero (The transforming one, not the angel.) Gene pressed several buttons on the console, putting the GM into standby. The cockpit opened on the GM, as did Wing Zeros, and Gene leaped over to the Gundam. "It feels great to be back at the helm Zero, though I was lead to believe you would be here tomorrow." Zeros 'eyes' glowed brighter for a second, then returned to normal. "I thought so, I will have to remember that later." (It is my belief that the Gundam Wing Gundams can feel emotions similarly to their pilots, and often take on personality traits accordingly.)
The Dom pilot remembered that he had a mission and fired the bazooka at the gundam. The only effect this had was knocking the GM over to the ground. Gene opened a comm. line to the pilot. His image was positively terror inspiring. His hair was glowing a soft gold, as were his eyes. "That was a mistake. I will let you live if you get out of the dom right now. If not, I can pay for a replacement for it." The pilot of the dom fired again, scared beyond rational thought. "You have made you bed..." Wing Zero flew up. "Now you must..." The left arm drew a beam saber from the right shoulder. "Sleep in it!" The Gundam flew at the Dom and cut it in half, killing the pilot. Zero deactivated the saber for Gene and returned it to the shoulder. Ms.Heart had been watching from her office and was suprised at the sheer power of the Gundam. "I have to get me a replica of that." Her computer moniter lit up with Genes face. "Ms.Heart, are you okay? I hope I didn't scare you. I shall pay for the damage, as well as the replacement of the mobile suits." Ms.Heart smiled.
"Thank you Gene. I hope they didn't hurt you. I would hate to see such a great pilot such as yourself killed by my museum pieces."
"I am fine Ms.Heart, I will return the GM and contact some people to fix the museum as soon as I can. I will also send for replacements for the suits."
With that said, Gene cut the comm. and took off for a hangar for Zero. "A Newtype, with the Zero system, plus Wing Gundam Zero equals no chance of victory for anyone less than another Newtype with Epyon." Gene chuckled as he turned up the thrusters and started a CD player.
Ms.Heart walked over to her coat, which was on a rack. She pulled a small radio from a pocket. "Commander Dekim, You were right. Gene has a Zero. Further investigation underway." She put the radio back in the pocket and put on the coat and left the museum.
Elsewhere the Gundam pilots were bidding farewell to there Gundams.
I hope you like this little turn of events. I will add more on Gene later, but for now I need some food. Later.
