Mobile Suit Gundam Seed: Revelation
Note: This fanfic is set after the events of Gundam Seed Destiny and Gundam Seed vs. Astray. I do not own the Gundam Seed/Destiny universe, though I dream to turn this into an anime in place of the highly anticipated (and delayed) SEED movie, with I as its producer, director, writer and actor of the protagonist. I also own characters such as Jordan Anderson, Michael Dean, Claire Radcliffe, Andrew McNeill etc. and Gundams (Freedom Noir, Zephyros, Elite, Azure Duel, Proto, Strike Buster Verde etc.) In general, I own this fanfiction, and nothing else.
I will also be providing Gundam specs, and summaries of character development and possible previews of new chapters, as well as posting a new chapter whenever I have the available time.
I have seen that plenty of you visit my story, which is good. However, none of you ever review my story. I want you to actually review to give me motivation and suggest corrections to my mistakes. After you finish reading this chapter, please review.
Phase 5: Old Friends, New Enemies
Nazca-class battlecruiser Vesalius II, March 26th, CE 77
"As you can see, the data shows that there are three Gundams, two of which is in our possession. The third, is still in the hands of the Earth Alliance forces," Jordan announced during his PowerPoint presentation on the Gundams.
He then turned on the next slide, which showed the Azure Duel posing with its beam saber.
"The GAT-X1022X Azure Duel is a prototype close combat mobile suit based on the original prototype Duel Gundam, one of the first five Gundams in existence, as well as an upgraded version, the Blu Duel. Its armor system is comprised of a fixed Assault Shroud Armor, as well as Phase Shift Armor. It is also equipped of railguns for long-range firepower.
Next came a slide of the Strike Buster Verde firing its combined beam rifles, shoulder cannons and missiles.
"The GAT-X103APS Strike Buster Verde is a prototype long range artillery mobile suit based on the Strike Buster Verde, another one of the original five Gundams, as well as the upgraded Verde Buster. It is equipped with 2 beam rifles, one high-energy cannon, one gun launcher, both of which can be detached from the shoulders and combined into a long-range beam cannon, or a anti-armor shotgun. It is also equipped with two plasma swords for melee combat."
The next slide showed a picture of the Proto Gundam in combat.
" The GAT-X782 Proto Gundam is a prototype multi-purpose mobile suit based on the Strike Gundam. It uses various Strikers for various purposes. In its base form, it is equipped with beam sabers, a shield, plasma swords, and a beam rifle."
The next slide showed data about plans for the mass produced Gundams.
"Now, there were some rumours that the Earth Alliance were going to mass produce Gundams to expand its armies. Well, these rumours are now true. The Proto Gundam was designed as a testbed for the mass-produced model. An army of Gundams is, well... disastrous."
The audience was in a hubbub about the news they heard. Some of them were discussing about the possibility of a Gundam army, while some dismissed that idea.
Later, as Jordan was walking along the halls, his cell phone rung, and Jordan answered it.
"Hello? Who is this?"
"This is Reid. Rumor has it that New Eternity is planning to drop the wreckage of Januarius and December onto Earth just like the "Break the World" incident, so as to provoke the Naturals, the Earth Alliance, and Blue Cosmos into starting a new war."
"Let me guess," Jordan replied. "You want me to stop that from happening, while you sit there as a lazy wuss that can't even fight for shit. Well, newsflash for you, I am fucking sick and tired of "you not doing it yourself and using me as your lapdog" crap. You can just shut the fuck up and kiss my ass, you lazy, inbred, PIECE OF FUCKING SHIT!"
As Jordan hung up, two familiar voices came up from behind.
"You okay, Jordan?"
He turned around to see Mike and Claire coming from behind. "I'm fine," came Jordan's reply.
"Commander, what exactly happened?" Mike asked.
"Well, Reid told me that rumor has it that New Eternity is planning to drop the Januarius and December wreckage onto Earth just like 4 years ago. Well, if that is the case, I'll do it for humanity, but not for him. So, I told him enough was enough, and starting now, I won't do his dirty work anymore."
"That's nice," Mike replied, "but what if we fail to prevent this foretold disaster?"
"Well, we'll try our best to prevent it. If a new war happens, we'll try our best to end it together. That's the way it's gonna work."
2 hours later…
Reinhardt Schneider, captain of the Vesalius II, was a bald, no-nonsense man that seemed to carry duty, responsibility and honor with him wherever he went. He was thinking about that when he suddenly got a call on the phone.
"Hello? This is Captain Reinhardt Schneider speaking. Who is this?"
"Ah, Captain Schneider. I am Elliott Mason, Chairman of the PLANTS. I would like to speak with Commander Anderson, please."
"Please hold, Chairman," Reinhardt replied. "Commander Anderson, please report to the bridge immediately."
Jordan quickly raced across the halls to the bridge, where Reinhardt and the Chairman (on the phone) were waiting for him.
"This is Commander Anderson speaking."
"Jordan, surely you've heard of the rumor that New Eternity will try to start a new war by dropping the wreckage to Earth just like the "Break The World" incident 4 years ago, right?"
"I have, Chairman."
"Well, " the chairman replied, "I assume that you will prevent this by all means necessary for the sake of humanity and the delicate balance of peace between the Coordinators and the Naturals."
"That is correct."
"I have actual faith in you that you can actually lead a special operations unit as a result of your skills as ace pilot and as a commander. Therefore, I am assigning you to a taskforce with other ZAFT aces. Think of it as a promotion. If you are effective in this role, I will also promote you to a member of FAITH."
"Thank you, Chairman."
"Oh, and tell Captain Schneider that if the Vesalius II is severely damaged, he can be the captain of our new battleship, the Hyperion-class battleship Fahrenheit. He's earned this privilege through his experience and skills in commanding this battlecruiser of yours, and besides he needs a new ship and deserves better. But remember, he gets it only if the Vesalius II can no longer fight. That is all. Have a good day."
"Captain Schneider, tell everyone that I've been assigned to command a taskforce. Oh, and tell everyone that if this battleship is severely damaged, we get a new one."
"Why?"
"Because you've worked so damn hard, and you're so damn good in commanding battleships, he wants to reward you."
"So, who will we work with?" Reinhardt asked.
" The usual suspects- Mike, Claire, and a few other people we'll meet."
"So you're saying that you don't know anybody else?"
"Captain, I've just been assigned!" Jordan replied.
Suddenly, one of the crewmembers announced the news.
"Captain, incoming MS at 3 o'clock!"
"Prepare to fire the starboard cannons!"
"I don't think these are enemies, Captain", Jordan replied. "No, I think these are the people I'm working with."
Two MS, one with with wings, and the other with a flight pack, landed on the catapult. Their pilots were a black haired man with crimson eyes, and a red haired girl.
"I am lieutenant Shinn Asuka and this is my fellow lieutenant Lunamaria Hawke. Pleasure to meet you, Commander."
As the two of them shook hands, Jordan noticed something different about Shinn.
"Well then, let's get started."
Archangel-class battlecruiser Uprising
"Now," Victor said, "it's time you get to meet some of your teammates."
The first pilot was a semi-messy haired boy named Darren Miller.
"So you're the dude that stops theives from stealing Gundams."
"Hey," Andrew replied," I tried, and failed. Now you see the point."
"Anyway, what Gundam do you pilot anyway?"
"The Proto Gundam," Andrew replied.
"Really? I pilot the Avenger Gundam."
"Anyway," Victor continued, "I'd also like to introduce two other members you'll be working with. Meet Jason McCain and Daniel Ryerson."
Daniel was a spiky, brown haired man, while Jason had a peach fuzz and messy black hair.
"Now, the four of you will be working together against our Zaft foes when-"
"Sir, we have spotted a Vesalius class battlecruiser," one of the crewmembers announced.
"Well then, deploy our forces."
A few moments later, all four of their Gundams deployed, as well as their MS escorts.
Nazca-class battlecruiser Vesalius II
The alarms were ringing as laser beams narrowly missed the Vesalius II.
"Enemy MS are approaching fast!" one of the crewmembers announced.
"Really?" Jordan replied. "Well, in that case, it's showtime!"
To be continued...
Author's Note: Well, here is the new chapter. Several new characters are introduced in this chapter, such as the Chairman, the Vesalius II captain, and more members of Phantom Pain. Also, Shinn and Luna make their first appearnace in this fanfic. There may be a possible relationship between Shinn and Jordan in later chapters, but for now, there will be plenty of action. Enjoy!
