Gundam SEED: Fateful Encounters
Chapter 7: Mwu and Strike
It's an another morning for Kira to go back studying at Heliopolis Academy after the incident occurred 5 days ago. Lacus and Kira were under the protection of Earth Alliance Military in secret. Kira goes back to school and Lacus is in Murrue's house near the Alliance.
Sitting at the last column if you faced from the teacher's table and he's on the second to the last row near the window. He looks at the scenery outside while putting his palm on his chin. Wind comes in from the outside and still his brown hair sways with it. His purple eyes looking at the calm city. He still remember that incident and his encounter with Lacus, the Meer-look-alike girl who proclaims herself as the SEED Princess. Well, he believes her.
"hey, do you know about the incident happened 5 days ago? " One of Kira's classmate, Kuzzey asked Tolle, another classmate of his. This conversation made Kira now turns his head to the two with his eyes looking at them and ears eagerly listening. Well, eavesdropping, we could say.
"A more advanced look mobile suit just save the city that day " Kuzzey said to his friend.
"Yeah, It had unique features as In say " as the orange haired glasses boy Sai Argyle response.
"Well, maybe it's a secret mobile suit Zaft military that helped the Alliance" Sai continued.
"Whoa, awesome. It's cool ! That mobile suit had mechanical wings like a bird. And, and" Kuzzey got excited as he punched one hand in the air.
"And?" Sai raise his eyebrow.
"And, he has a magnificent armor. They rock ! I wish I can see it more clearly. "
"There's also an incident occurred 3 days ago in PLANTs. The Aegis, Buster, Blitz, and Duel were fighting a hundreds of unknown enemies and a new report states that a red mobile suit just suddenly appeared and it also has cool features similar to the mobile suit 5 days ago. I heard that it kill half hundreds in 3 minutes. Cool isn't? " Sai states
Kuzzey's mouth were shaped like letter "O"
Kira stills eavesdropping while pretending looking at the window.
Another Freedom look-a-alike? He thinks.

Suddenly, the door opens reveals three students. This students called themselves " Great Trios" . They were mobile suit pilots and they were famous for they even defeat Blitz, Buster, and Duel in a fight though they haven't defeat the Aegis. They were feared by the students and acts like kings. Orga Sabnak, a blond boy with green eyes stand with two hands on pocket, together with Clotho Buer, an orange haired boy, and Shani Andras a light-green haired covering one of his eyes, stands.
Orga speaks first " Tss… that was just a weak mobile suit from Zaft. They are not too almighty unlike us. "
Clotho, playing a portable video game smirks.
Shani Andras, plugging an earphone in the right hair also smirks.
The three walks and face Kuzzey and Sai who is now a little bit scared.
"Y-yes? " Kuzzey asked.
"Nothing bro. " as he pushes Kuzzzey and fall to the ground. Sai gots up in his seat and helped Kuzze stand up. " Kuzzey!"
The three laugh as they passed.
Those three…
.
.
.
In the middle of the lessons, The trios stands up and walks without asking permission by the teacher.
" Where are you going? " Their teacher ask
" None of your business. " Orga shouts and continues to walk.
" Those bastards really pissed me off" Kuzzey mumbles clenching his fist hiding in the table.
Sain notices it and comforts Kuzzey with words " It's okay Kuzzey besides they are just three idiots who are thinking of themselves too highly."
Kira heard that and did nothing.
.
.
.
Kira return home and takes off his school clothes and wears civilian clothes and goes to the military. He is known by the personels there and he seems friendly enough to associates with them.
.
.
.
He enters the living room where Lacus and Murrue sitting talking to each other.
" It's good to see you two laughing" He said that made the two stop talking turn to him
" Hello, Ensign"
" Ensign?" he ask confusedly
" Yeah, I personally promote you to that rank. "
Still confused, kira just dropped that topic.
" So, how are you Lacus? "
"I'm okay. How about you? How was school?"
"hmmm…. I'm also okay."
"uhmmmm Kira, I would like to introduce to you, Mwu La Flaga" as she points out Mwu behind Kira
" Yo, boy! " As the blonde man salutes in two fingers and winks.
" Uhmmm… Hi "
Mwu rubbed Kira's head . " oh, this guy is shy"
" He's the one who bonded with Lacus" Murrue stated
" Oh… must be a strong-willed guy" while looking at Murrue and still rubbing Kira's hair which made him pissed.
" Hey Sir, quit it out please " as he escapes from Mwu's hands by going backwards
" Hahahha, interesting"
Kira while fixing his hair.
"Call me Mwu kiddo "
"Geezz"
"Hey, kid, I would like to show my mobile suit. " he wink as he thumbs up
Kira nodded.
Mwu first walk at the sliding door while Kira followed him. Before Mwu could step outside, he turn to the ladies and said " Be right back ladies. The Prince Charmings will be going somewhere. "
Kira looked at Mwu annoyed.
Murrue just rolled her eyes. "Okay, okay "
Lacus just bend her head sideway.
.
.
.
They reach at the Gundam Bay located at the back of the military compound. They enter at the gundam size door. Kira's eyes grew wide as he witness a mobile suit standing still and some wires connected to it from a computer or whatever. Mwu and Kira step on a lift and rises up to the cockpit of the suit.
"Mwu? "
"This is my first ever mobile suit. Aile Strike or just Strike. "
"Cool "
Mwu chuckled.
"This suit is similar to the famous Aegis, Buster, Blitz, and Duel. "
"So, do they have the same features? "Kira asked
" hmmmm… some of them. There are suits who can transform in to an armor. Like Aegis, they can transform to MA mode or even attack mode. The rest of the four including Strike, they don't have that kind of mode. Buster is prototype long-range artillery mobile suit, it is best for long range battles. Blitz, was developed for the purpose of conducting surprise attacks deep behind enemy lines. It also has a good feature, the Mirage Colloid cloaking technology that rendered it invisible to both sensors and the naked eye. Duel, developed with the concept of a general-purpose machine and following the requirements for well-balanced performance. Lastly, Strike, the all-around mobile suit were it can do long-range, or short-range battles, heavy assault battles. In short, it's for all-purposed combat"Mwu explains with pride.
Kira just nodded in the middle of each descriptions.
"Wanna ride it? " Mwu with a big grin that made Kira's eyes grew wide
"Me?" as Kira points his forefinger to his chin.
Mwu nodded.
"Or…wanna have a little match with me?"
Kira looked back at the strike
"Then, what unit will I pilot with? "
"Hmmm… I'll pilot with this unit. For you… using Freedom, well if you crossed the line, My unit might be destroyed. Your gundam is 4x stronger than my unit you know." While Mwu puts his hands in his waist.
"Might be? "
"Yeah, you might get overboard. "
"Maybe, we can't expect something might happen like that"
"How about Windam?"
"WIndam?" Kira asked in confusion.
"It's kinda similar to mine but-"
" Okay"
Mwu looked at Kira.
"I'll pilot the Windam and we'll have an easy match at the blue sky "Kira eagerly answers
Mwu again pats Kira's head. "I know you're a strong-willed guy"and rubs his head
He then turned around and goes inside Strike's cockpit. Kira watches as he sits in.
"Well, Windam is located at the right warehouse next to this. Tell them that you need it…for practice"as Mwu close the cockpit and Strike's eyes flashed golden. The wires connected to it were disconnected. Before strike could take a step, Kira steps down the lift and runs to the designated warehouse.
.
.
.
Kira is now on the windam cockpit. A basic cockpit just similar to any suit but this one is quite…ahmmmm… his train of thoughts were cut by Mwu's video chat at the screen
" Boy, what are you waiting for? Come on! It's 2hours before the sun sets so hurry up. Or you wanna quit already? : as Mwu grins at the last statements.
Kira was slightly offended.
"I'll go now. "
Mwu's video turns black. Kira ask one of the weapon-in-charge
"Excuse me… Does this unit support a beam saber?"
The weapon-in-charge nodded saying " Yes. An ES04B Beam Saber"
Kira was about to launch when he forgot something.
"hey, uhmmm also I need an Striker pack "
"Yeah, I'm about to say that"
After connecting the Striker pack and the beam saber place in the unit's hips, Windam Launches and flew to the sky were Strike is waiting.
"What took you so long kid?"
"Na, nevermind"
Now Strike release his beam saber. "Now, this Saber, I take it from a custom windam so the saber of yours is same to mine. Fair play isn't? "
Windam also released its saber and face the saber diagonally where its tip is facing Strike. Strike's saber is also pointing at Windam.
.
.
.
"Ohh, are they fighting?"Murrue witness two units facing each other but in a battle mode through a window glass.
Lacus, who is looking at the other side of the window looks at Murrue's direction and also witness the position. "Who's that?"
"That Aile Strike, could that be Mwu? So the other one is… Kira's?"
.
.
.
Windam first charge in to Strike. Strike calmly seen the attack and sidesteps to the right to avoid it. Windam stops the attack and turns around to see the Strike has made its first move by hitting Windam in the face using the holster of his saber. Windam nearly falls to the ground but gladly controls it by using force to move back to Strike's position. Strike now next charges in but in a zigzag position. Windam also charges and their blades clash. Both force push each other. Windam moves backward because of Strike's , in the Windam, grits his teeth. The sabers separates and both units steps backward. Windam charges in, Strike also charges in. Windam was about to slash Strike to the left, Strike suddenly charges at the top of Windam and kick on his head. Windam holds back and sways the saber upward, Strike evade faces Windam and slash downward. Windam avoids the attack and counterattacks by slashing diagonal vertical. Strike heads up to avoid it. The two saber collides again. This time, they both use their force. Windam had the chance to kick Strikes feet that made Strike off balance. While Strike is off-guard, Windam takes the opportunity to slash downward, upward, and sidewards. Strike avoids the three attacks by sidesteps to the right, bending down, and moves up. This kids good Mwu thought. Mwu is skilled.Kira thought also.

Meanwhile,Murrue and Lacus are still watching the two units sparr.
"Mwu-san is incredible " as Lacus still watching the fight.
Murrue, still watching, nodded "No doubt he was called 'Hawk of Endymion' "
While they were watching, red lights flash and a siren-sound like sound are heard.
"Emergency! Emergency! GINNs are at the sky! I repeat! Emergency! "as a voice came on-air.
.
.
.
The sky was light red and meteor-look-a-like objects came down. The two units notice it.
"MWU!"Kira shouts at the video in Mwu's unit.
"I heard you!" he response looking at the sky.
"This match will become a real battle! Kid! Go down and return to the compound, I'll fight this things. " he continued.
"But! You're energy-"
"I'll buy you time kid, go pick your suit and help me here! This will be the beginning of your training. "
"Training! "
"Yeah, I was sent to train you! "as Mwu charges to the enemy.
Kira nodded. He immediately rush to the warehouse and like flash, he runs to the ground were the serious Lacus glows and floats mid-air waiting for Kira!
"Kira!" as Lacus' hands reach Kira's hands.
"Lacus!" and wings spread out and wrap them like a came out of it as it ascends to the atmosphere. It pops and revealed the White with a scheme of blue, black, and red Gundam with wings spread floats in the air. Kira, in the cockpit raise his head and is ready for battle. Lacus appears before him ( remember, in a spiritual form) "Lacus"then he smirks. "Are you ready?"Lacus asked.
"ready as always" as Freedom charges to aide Strike.

Meanwhile, Murrue is on the command center watching the Freedom going up.
