I really, really hate fan fiction.

[Adamska]

I will apologize in advance if I dun goof'd and put this stuff in the wrong board. Sign post me to the right section and I'll post there.

So anyway, I just remembered that I had a comprehensive fanfiction written by one of the weebs I know stored on my computer. The weeb in question I've talked about back here. The tl;dr version of that link (check post #416 for my contribution) is that he basically bought a video game because you could play as Japan, then rage quit at the difficulty of it. Now this fella is a wreck of a person, and I have a ton of stories about this guy. However, the topic for this little thread is something he produced and I have kept for years on some little chunk of my PC. For you see, this weeb has written a fanfiction. Not just any fanfiction, but his own personal Sonichu.

Since I want to be brief, and it really just speaks for itself, let me just unveil its true glory. I have included everything he's produced, including mech specifications, character sheets, the lot. The story itself is at the bottom, including the two rewrites.

Alright, let me now compile all the dumb mechs and vehicles he planned out for this rape train.

Once you share that just as you shared this, one can only imagine how horrible this fic must be, considering that it's the Sonichu for this guy.

 

[OtterParty]

There's this one fanfic, thankfully already complete, that I've been reading for a few years. Really, really long. Doorstopper sized. It started with one episode of Avatar: The Last Airbender, where the author wrote the ending a little different. Then it turned into "Zuko learns to heal with Firebending", which I thought was pretty neat, then got more and more involved with the real-world lore that shaped the series.

I thought that was still cool.

Spoiler: It's called Embers and it was written by Vathara on Fanfiction.net. Spoilery details inside. If you want to be surprised, though I can't guarantee it'll be pleasant, the link is at the bottom of this post.

Spirit tales - their equivalent of our fairy tales. The unadulterated kind where non-human beings from the other world ran the gamut from "alien with difficulty understanding tiny human insects" to "complete asshole". The author liked playing with the idea of balance - in short, Aang's world lacked it, had been sorely lacking in balance for centuries by that point, and things were going to come to a head.

Then Zuko and Iroh went to Ba Sing Se and the author managed to humanize the local guard and the Dai Li, of all things. Refresher: the Dai Li were the evil communist secret police who disappeared people who mentioned the war and turned every Jane Doe who fell into their clutches into a tour-guide Barbie. She made them human. The author gave them faces and names and personalities and reasons and it was amazing. Oh, also Iroh prayed to the Moon Spirit and she helpfully tried to fix things by making Zuko a waterbender. So he gets two elements to play with, Water and Fire, and that actually upsets things as much as it helps. On the plus side, Zuko also gets a healing instructor - also a waterbender too! - she ditched the North Pole because fuck their shit. A bunch of stuff happens, Mdm Waterhealbender and Iroh get romantically involved but that's just a subplot thing.

Zuko gets along with life for a while. He gets better, even. He makes friends with residents of Ba Sing Se, including the family of a History professor who's on the Dai Li's shitlist and whose eldest son is gunning to join them. He discovers a hidden enclave of Firebenders - hidden by his teacher, no less. She uses weird spirit/waterbending magic to disguise them, turning their gold eyes green so their most noticeable Fire Nation trait can't be seen. He recognizes that the family's youngest son is a firebender and teaches him to control it. (Zuko teaching a kid. Awwww!)

Then the Gaang come crashing in as per canon and that's where things start to unravel.

The author's characterization of the Gaang is what can make or break the fanfic for most people. Sokka is awesome. Toph is awesome. Not much else to say about them, which might actually be a bad point now that I think about it. But the real trouble starts around chapter twenty-something, which is where they show up proper and Katara and Zuko start getting on each other's nerves. A lot of people concluded the author was out to make Katara and Aang look bad for whatever reason and I can see their point. They seem to make the most bad decisions or catalyze the most disasters in the story. A truce almost falls apart because Katara's waterbending turns out to have a mind control component (and so do all other forms of bending) which she was never taught to keep in check. Aang almost kills Zuko multiple times and gets possessed by a volcano spirit and is also an unreliable ally because he's stuck on Air Monk teachings.

Uh, okay.

Personally, I thought Katara and Aang had the best characterization precisely because they had so many (in-canon) issues to work through. Katara was heavily traumatized by her mother's death. She didn't deal with the trauma, she buried it until it clawed its way out stronger and madder. Aang was twelve. Twelve and sheltered. I know what twelve and sheltered feels like. Leaving that behind takes years. Their developmental process throughout most of the story was one step forward and two steps back and I thought that was brilliant. It was right. It's exactly how things happen in real life, and makes the eventual growing-up all the more welcome. People don't really develop and learn valuable life lessons over the course of one episode, after all.

Katara and Aang's characterization were a gigantic sticking point with a lot of people. Reviews went from "lol, Kataang's such an idiot and I hate them! Great writing!" to "wtf, Kataang are such idiots and I hate you! You're the worst writer ever!"

The author said she was going for realism. With Katara and Aang, she scored a perfect bull's eye. (And as bad as they are at first, I think they become much, much better at the end. So I like that too, even if it took them ninety-one chapters to get there.)

Now, on the subject of realism...

The Water Tribe were expanded to be... tribal. They have quite an Us vs Them mentality going on in the story. My Family vs Outsider Trash. Katara portrays it best. When people live on the ice floes and have to save every scrap of anything for their own kin, I can see where that idea might come from. It's not just about four nations being monolithic blocks across the planet. Only the Earth Kingdom gets to be a monolith, just like unified China which was its IRL inspiration. The Water Tribes were a loose confederation of people who happened to live on or near running water and worshipped the Moon and Ocean and only stopped kicking each others behinds because the Fire Nation was trying to scorch everybody. The Air Nomads... I really loved this one.

Air "Nomads". Not Air "Monks who plant their bottoms in temples and travel to other temples sometimes". And their IRL counterparts? The freaking Mongols. (And also desert tribesmen, and some form of Buddhists, and some form of Shintoists.) Vathara made the Air Nomads as diverse as any real-world nomads and it was amazing. She also had a very good look at "Why did we only ever see Air Monks?" and "How were they all born airbenders compared to element benders being the minority in every other nation?"

The Fire Nation got similar treatment. Actually lots of minor nations / prefectures / whatever that word was, rather like the Water Tribe. Frequently at war with each other. Supposed to be a reference to feudal Japan (could someone else verify this? Was feudal Japan at war with itself more than they were at someone else's throats?). That was fine.

All Firebenders are actually the descendants of dragons. Earlier generations are more like dragons, too. Angrier, tougher, determined, more than a little insane. Because, you know, realism! *Jazz hands*

Um, no. That's not okay. That's really, really not okay.

And for realism's sake, they were all crammed together into a single entity because Avatar Kyoshi flipped her shit after her son was killed by Fire Nation pirates and no one would help her bring them to justice. So she waited for an eclipse, then rampaged across the Fire Nation and kicked the Fire Lord's ass and made him the king. Also something about loyalty playing a part - Fire Nation people have to give their loyalty to someone. If they break that loyalty, they die. Much like Zuko getting very ill right after he freed Appa in the show. Hence, why Jeong Jeong was allegedly the only deserter from the FN army in a hundred years. (Earth Kingdom people, especially benders, are bound by contracts in the same way. Water Tribe have ties to family, and Air Nomads have ties to their philosophy. In all cases, rejection makes them very weak for a while and can outright kill them.)

...........really?

So every atrocity committed by the Fire Nation wasn't a matter of choice anymore. They were only following orders.

That's really not cool.

Vathara's Fire Nation fetish starts to get really obvious with the masturbatory level of detail she puts into describing Fire Nation Anything. The army, the organization, the culture. She makes it all look so good. So perfect for everywhere else. Her OCs always take Zuko's side over the Gaang's side if things ever come to a head in that manner. Except for the asshole OCs, who are encouraged to take the Gaang's side like big floppy strawmen with target boards all over them.

That's another thing that can turn a lot of people off and which I found to be extremely dodgy. She likes the Fire Nation a bit too much. A theme she repeatedly tries to hammer home is that There Are No Excuses, Only Reasons

...unless your name happens to be Zuko or Iroh or you happen to be Fire Nation. Then you're excused.

At least Mai, Azula and Ty Lee have a great subplot of their own. Meeting the dragon side of Zuko's family is pretty cool too. The Earth King even gets to be a really kickass spirit-commanding shaman, though after two chapters of being amazing he disappears off the radar and only appears at the end. That's a shame. There was so much that could have been done with him.

Spoiler

By the way did I mention Zuko is a reincarnation of Aang's Fire Nation bff Kuzon, yes that's a thing too

Spoiler

So that makes Zuko a dual-bender (though it turns out dual-benders are a thing too and he isn't the only speshul one). And descended from a dragon. And burdened with great and glorious purpose. Also Vathara loves to fellate Agni, the Fire Nation's resident deity. Because Agni is Loki now. Water and Earth and Air spirits shape destiny. Agni cuts and untangles it and prunes things away when they get too overgrown. Agni this. Agni that. Fire Nation are Extra Special. For the love of god give it a rest lady.

It gets really involved, sometimes way too involved. Also you might get sick of the continuous references between Fire Nation (especially Zuko) and pygmy pumas. You could even make a drinking game out of the cliches that unfortunately didn't escape the beta readers' notice. There's the one where someone says "Rhetorical question? Single-phrase answer." That turns up everywhere and jesus christ it makes my soul bleed. Also talking heads abound. Vathara loves writing extensive informative monologues as if people do that in real life (Realism! *jazz hands*) - just sit and talk and talk and talk and talk good lord is it three paragraphs of all talk and no action already.

I'd call the story "Great, but not good". Definitely one of the better things to find on FF net, but as polishing goes I don't think the writing shines as much as many people think. It wants to explore a lot of ideas but Vathara may have ended up biting off more than she could chew. It got bloated. It's quite obvious where her true love lies - just compare the chapter length for where Zuko gets involved to those where Aang does things. I don't blame her for her personal biases - except, I totally do. She makes them way too obvious, and that just isn't good writing.

But I found it worth reading. Perhaps the best moment in the whole thing:

Spoiler: Ending spoilers!

Fire Lord Ozai: 2
Boomerang: Win

EDIT: On that note she writes really great battle scenes. Bit like an anime sometimes. Lots of flash and little substance?

Here's the prequel, which being only one chapter long, is quite free of all the problems I mentioned up there: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5115106/1/Theft-Absolute

And here's the supermassive controversial doorstopper I just sperged for an hour about: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5398503/1/Embers

I hope everyone else won't hate it too.

Nano machines allowing for slow re-generation to any minor to low
moderate scathing. Can within stand a small excessive amount of
beams. Ceartin points of the armor can reflect beam shots as if
they were mirrors. Can only reflect 3x before becoming Normal.

Uses G-Core+ Boosters allowing for infinite boost, 2 boosters per foot
, 2 boosters on the back, and 2 on the back of the shoulders.
Allowing Avenged to be one of the fastest Mechs currently Existing.

Uses Carbon Nano-Tube Glass so the cameras can with stand anything
other than a beam shot.

Pilot of the Avenged Gundam is Cole.

In G-Core/G-Core+ the "G" is an acronym for "Generator" or
self replenishing at the cost of over heating. However...the +
version does not overheat and is currently to expensive and
improbable to be placed in weapons. The + version only exists
in Avenged Gundam's boosters.

Avenged uses a GN - Cockpit removing the G's so great
maunverability can be achieved.

Optional Attachments:

Core Bazzoka Launcher x2 - Allows for easier destruction of
ships or mech to mech combat.

2 Double Bladed Beam Swords or 1 Giant 4 bladed melle to
melle combat weapon and throwing star.

XX-Rifle x2 - Rifles formed from the remants of the X rifle's. Now
uses a Pulsating Power Core allowing for unlimited ammo with a
very low overheat time. With the pulsating core the rifle's beam
shots can penetrate I-Fields.

Pulsating Energy Wings - Allows for 2 1/2 times greater speed
and manuverability. Wings pulse every 10 seconds allowing for
recharging but with no loss of movement speed, allowing for
infinite running time. Along with the XX-Rifle the Shots from
the Energy Wings due to a Pulsating Engiene can penetrate
I-Fields and any other beam cancelling/negating equipment.

Hooks x8 - Similar to spikes although 2 hooks can attach to a mech
and pull apart from each other ripping the mobile suit in two.
Also has 2 Built in Core Rifles for Frontal and Backwards Firing.
Flight time is up to 45 seconds each shooting 8 shots each.

Pulsating I-Field - Known to block massive Warship beams, although
critically weakening Vengance. Blocks all beams and solid
projectiles.

StarKiller Penetration Cannon Laser - A very powerful Laser known
to destroy entire Colonies in 1 blast. Although after firing charging
time to use again is roughly 2 - 3 Hours varying how much RAW power
and particles were used in the previous blast.

Expanding Daggers x4 - Small barely visible daggers that once enters a
mech begins to expand to a point the mech blows from the inside. Is
equipped on the underside of the left arm.

Implosion Daggers x4 - Small barely visible daggers when once
penetrated into the mech starts a magnetic reaction pulling
the gundam in then exploding in a shockwave resulting in the
targeted mech being destroyed. Equipped on the underside of the
right arm.

Core+ Bazzoka launchers x2 - Equipped between 2 daggers on both
sides of the arm. Known to blast open holes in warships and
destroy mass production mechs.

Particle Plasma Cannon x2 - Equipped on back, when shooting flips
over in front of vengance and fires: Then immediatly returns.
uses a pulsating core to allow for more firing in shorter amount of
time.

Information:

Vengance is made with a state of the art Condesing Solid Armor.
Can absorb beams in any part of the body due to the particles being
so condensed. However once shot by a Plasma Rifle with extreme
heating the particles begin to disperse forcing the armor to
be weaker. Although in due time the particles do condense back
togethor. So self repair is only needed when the armor is completly
blown off at one point due to multiple shots.

Venagnce's Engienes are recycled material from G-Core+ boosters
from the scraps of Avenged Gundam only now customized with
a pulsating plasma core. Meaning the boosters can be used
as a weapon to melt ceartin specific points on mechs giving
chase. Due to the engienes using the plasma core more particles are
dispersed in flight allowing for faster movement.

Uses Recycled Carbon Nano-Tube Glass from Avenged Gundam for the
cameras. Along with Clear See-Through Mirror coating on the outside
to reflect 1 beam shot.

Is made after Avenged Gundam is destroyed in a battle.

Pilot of Vengance Gundam is Cole.

Vengance uses a LB - Cockpit removing the G's so great
maunverability can be achieved.

4 Different colors for blades. Red, Light Green, Dark/Light purple,
and Black.

Optional Attachments:

Most previous attachments are implemented inside Vengance Gundam
removing the need for extra packs.

[Adamska]

And now, the moment none of you waited for! The fanfic herself.

Spoiler: Chapter 1 - Nothing Lasts Forever

Chapter 1- Nothing Last Forever

A.D. - Anno Domini Year 2414

The Celestial War started 2402 had not yet been decided. The Coalition Army and the Global Unification Army
Organization had not settled their differences. After the Coalition turned corrupt Heavy Fighting began to pop
up all over the world, killing off any civilaians that were in these battles. In the Midst of all this, small
terrorist organizations formed in hopes of one day rising up, claiming random civilans for "Super soldier" projects.
As time goes on the war seems to be worsening but never ending.

Who am I you ask? Currently just a mercenary. I go by Ben. Who was I? Well thats quite different.

I don't know the whole story, but the GUA or the Global Unification Army was upset that people were rebelling against them. So they started raiding
parties that went out and killed everyone they could find. My town.... Well my town was unfortunate enough to be one of these towns. When they came to town
they gathered everyone to the town square.

Then they killed them one by one. My family was the last to be killed. Finally they were to me. Saying things like "Are you ready to see your
parents again?" and "Hope you've been a good boy." I was so scared I couldn't breathe, but then out of nowhere they were shot in the back. My savoirs the
Coalition Army. The same ones that later became corrupt.

They took me in. I wanted revenge. I got it eventually, but it did nothing. It solved nothing. My family was still dead. But thats all in time.
At 6 they started training me to become the best solider ever. It might have worked, if I didn't take off. I meet someone while their. Someone named
Johnathan. He quickly came to the same level as me. We did all the same missions and became best friends, but it couldn't last forever. Nothing ever does.

Eventually the government became corrupt. Me and Johnathan left the government. We work as mecenaries. How long will the war go on? When will it
stop? Will it finally be done forever this time? Probably not. Like I said before. Nothing lasts forever.

After I was recused they started asking if I had anywhere to go. My only surviving freind had moved away before that day. I had no idea where to go.
They asked what I wanted to do. My obvious answer. "Revenge. To stop that from ever happening again." So began my quest.

"Welcome to the military. We're going to train you to be the best Those were my first words hearing upon arrving at Coalition Army headquaters that
greeted me and 10 others. Upon arriving I started being trained to become a super soilder. Since I had no where else to go. The military took me in and
trained me to become a super solider to end the war faster.

At the age of 8 I was shaping up to be the best in the academy. By 9 they implanted me with a special chip. Saying "This will help bring the war to
a closer end." I was all for that. No more death. No more suffering. And most importantly no more wars.

The implant had several things wrong with it. I knew none of this at the time. First if you activate it manually theres always the chance of blacking out
until you learn to control it. Unfortunatly I left before that time. When you black out you attack everyone but your closest friends and only they can snap
you out of it. Your eyes turn black in this mode. Second it's main power only activates when defending close friends. Your eyes turn dark red in this mode.

I also started seeing the corruption start to creak into the Coalition Government at this age.I trusted them to fix it though. I was being trained
to use their new Mobile Suit. It could take lots of shots and it had a lot of attacks. I met one of my best friends at this time. My rival in time. His
name was Johnathan. He was as good a poilt as me. I met up with my old childhood friend as well. Her name is Amber. Then I finally got my first mission.
And my first shot at revenge.

Spoiler: Chapter 2 - Eternal

Eternal Gundam

A.D. - Anno Domini Year 2414

The Celestial War started 2402 had not yet been decided. The Coalition Army and the Global Unification Army
Organization had not settled their differences. After the Coalition turned corrupt Heavy Fighting began to pop
up all over the world, killing off any civilaians that were in these battles. In the Midst of all this, small
terrorist organizations formed in hopes of one day rising up, claiming random civilans for "Super soldier" projects.
As time goes on the war seems to be worsening but never ending.

The time had come for our first mission. The best and brightest of the Coalition. Among them were Brian, Steven, Tina, & Jon.

Brian was an excellent solider. Loyal. determined, sense of morals and a great friend. If anyone could handle top secret it would be him, He was almost as
good a poilt as me.

Steven, a hot-shot poilt. He talks a big game and has the skill to back it up. Hes selfish, gets mad easily and does as he pleases. This is the most likely
person I've ever met to betray his "allies".

Britney one of the most best here. Has a strong sense of morals. True to her words and friends. You'll be hard pressed to find a better friend. She joined
the military to avoid family problems.

Jon, a good friend unless it puts himself at to much risk. Reliable piolt and friend, although I would never trust him with anything to important. He
emmits a clamming sense that puts everyone at ease.

Jordan a wanna be piolt that thinks he can take anything. Altough he talks a big game he doesn't have the skill to back it up. He joined to get revenge
on the GUA after his brother died in battle.

Jonhathan started training at the same age as me. It quickly became apparent we were the best. Hes on the same level as me. I was always wondered who would
win in a fight between us. I'll probably never know.

All in all a super team I would hate to fight, but I only had eyes for one person. Amber.

The sole surviving member of my village besides myself. Her family had moved away before the incident.

I had to wait for the ceremony to be complete.

"And with this you are all hereby Privates of the Coalition Army. Dismissed." The captain said.

"Sir." The audiotorium rang.

I lost sight of her in all the commotion, but it was okay, We were all going to the same place. The Colation's brand new state-of-the-art warship the
Liberty.

________________________________________________

On the Ship

________________________________________________

"Privates Ben, Jon, Britney, Amber, Jonhathan, Brian, Steven, and Jordan report to the hanger immediately."

"What now?" I said out loud.

"Well we have to report to the hanger it seems. Some kind of meeting I would guess." Johnathan said as he stoped beside me.

Eventually he would be 6'1 with medium length hair and green eyes.

"I guess theres nothing for it except to go see whats going on." I said sighing.

________________________________________________

Hanger

________________________________________________

"You have all been assembled here to recieve your Mobile Suits." The grizzled captian said.

"So thats what those things behind him are." I thought to myself.

Now as I call your name you will be assigned a Moblie Suit. Get used to the controls. You'll be using them a lot." He continued.

"Private Jon."

The best way to describe him would be to say he was Japanese American. I say closest because America was destroyed. The Coalition was bulit on the same
Principals as America.His hair was medium length to the side and straight. He had black eyes, but oddly he put everyone at ease.

"You will be assigned to the Adamant Gundam." He continued.

"Sir." Jon repiled.

"Brian." The captain replied turning away from Jon.

A man with short spikey hair stepped foward. He had a strong bulid and had brown hair and brown eyes.

"You will be assigned to the Redemtion Gundam."

"Sir." Brian replied with a smile.

"Steven. Step foward." He continued on as Brian went to look at his Gundam.

A man with hazel eyes and a weak bulid stepped forward. He also had blond hair which was medium length and was straight.

"Your Gundam is the The Mystic Gundam." The captian said egear to be done.

Steven nodded.

"Britney." He continued.

A girl with long black hair and black eyes stepped forward.

"Your Gundam is the Phoniex Gundam."

"Yes sir." She said as she walked away.

"Jordan. Since we are out of regular Gundams. You will be piolting a Costum S-4 Tiger."

Jordan girmanced. I chuckled and he glared at me.

"Amber. Ben. Follow me." He said walking away."

We looked at each other puzzled.

After a short walk he stopped.

"Here we are. Amber."

Amber stepped foward. She had long black hair and brown eyes.

"You will be piolting the Mobile Armour Defiler. It can take 50 shots."

"Sir." She said clearly shocked.

"It can also take two warship shots." He went on ignoring her.

"Now Ben." He said eyeing me.

I stepped foward.

"Why would they give it to a kid so young?" He mumbled with a grimance.

I stayed calm.

"You have been assigned to the Eternal."

"The Eternal sir?" Where is it?" I asked looking around.

"It's in another room." he replied laughing.

We walked to the room and entered. I got my first glimsp of my Gundam. It was mostly red with black eyes and the funnel pack was white.

"This is your Gundam." he said as I eyed it with awe.

The Eternal. A fitting name. It's still kicking after all this time. I guess they knew a good Gundam when they saw it.

It was well bulit, strong, most importantly MINE. Now I could get my revenge.

Spoiler: Chapter 3 - Encounter

Chapter 3- Encounter

A.D. - Anno Domini Year 2414

The Celestial War started 2402 had not yet been decided. The Coalition Army and the Global Unification Army
Organization had not settled their differences. After the Coalition turned corrupt Heavy Fighting began to pop
up all over the world, killing off any civilaians that were in these battles. In the Midst of all this, small
terrorist organizations formed in hopes of one day rising up, claiming random civilans for "Super soldier" projects.
As time goes on the war seems to be worsening but never ending.

Our first mission was simple...At least it was supposed to be. We had been ordered to find the traitor that was giving the GUA all of our data. As fate
would have it. This would also be my last mission.

"We've found him. Everyone to your battle stations." The intercom rang.

I jumped up into my flight suit.

I was the last to reach my Gundam.

"Whats wrong? Were you woken up?" Jonhathan joked.

"Maybe hes just a coward." Jordan remarked.

"We'll see who gets him once we're out there." I replied back.

I swtiched over to my private com. And pointed to Amber. She got the message.

"Be careful out there. Okay?" I said concerened.

"Have you forgotten already?" she joked. "This thing is invincible."

"Yeah. I guess so." I said forcing a laugh.

"All Gundams launch." The com channel blared.

"Whos in command while out there?" I asked.

"That would be Johnathan." The reply came.

"Hear that. You got to follow me Mr. Super Soilder." Johnathan joked.

"Yeah. I heard it all right." I said.

"So whats his current status?" I asked.

"Hes currently alone in a custom Ragnarok." The captain said.

"Rules of engagment?" Jordan asked.

"Whatever works." They replied in a happy voice.

"How can you be happy about killing someone even if they are a tratoir?" I asked myself.

"All Gundams launch." The com blared.

The Eternal and the Defiler got the most stares.

"Thats your Gundam? Why do you get that?" Jordan demanded.

"I got it because some of us actually have talent." I replied.

Everyone laughed after that.

"Jordan. Take point." Johnathan said.

"My pleasure." He replied.

We continued on for a while until a bazzoka exploded on Jordan's cockpit.

"Jordan!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" everyone yelled at once.

"Scatter!!" Johnathan yelled.

"Find him." Jonhathan said.

I went left. It seemed the shot had come from there.

I had activated my invisiblitly cloack so he couldn't find me to shoot me. After about 5 mins of searching I came upon a white Mass Produced Gundam. It was
100 years old. I deactivated my cloack to pick it up and bring it back to base, but it tired to slice my cockpit. I did a back-flip to avoid it.

"What the?" I asked.

"So. Are you one of their puppets?" he asked while shooting his machine gun.

"Whos puppets?" I asked blocking with my arm and shooting one of my funnels at him.

"The Coaltion of course." He added easily dodging my shot.

"What?" I said activating my cloack.

"Think about it. The Coaliton took you in after your family died. Raised you to be a super soilder. To kill. To obey their orders without question. Am I
wrong?" He said shooting his machine gun wildly.

"No. It's not like that." I said getting ready to attack.

"Think about it. Why else would they care about you? Why else would they give you a good Gundam to bring about peace? Whos peace the peoples or the
dictators? What will happen after this war ends?" He continued.

"THATS ENOUGH!!!!!!!!!" I yelled as I sliced his Gundam in half.

"Ben here. The one that got Jordan is dead. I think he may have been the 'Lost One' We've been hearing about. You get the other one?" I asked.

"Yeah we got him." Johnathan said. "Head back to base."

"Thats the only place I want to be right now." I thought.

"Think about it. The Coaliton took you in after your family died. Raised you to be a super soilder. To kill. To obey their orders without question. Am I
wrong?" He said.

Those were the words that had been haunting me since I had returned back to base. Apparently I was supposed to get a promotion for killing him.

The question was why. Because he had saved others from being puppets? Or because he was dangerous?

This was something I had to decide.

When I first got back everyone was congratulating me on my victory. But I told them I needed to be alone. All through the night that conversation played in
my head over and over.

In the morning I had made a decision. I was going to leave the Coalition, but I had to talk to someone first. Amber.

I woke her up at 3 in the morning.

"Amber. I can't stay here. They're just using us. They're aren't fighting for the right reasons." I said. "Please don't think bad of me." I pleaded.

"How can you say that after all they've done for us?" she asked.

I didn't say anything for a few minutes.

"Listen. About a year after you left. The GUA came to our village." I paused. "They killed everyone." I said as I looked her in the eyes.

She gasped.

"All they did in return was offer me revenge." I said getting angier. "Killing for killings others. Then being killed for killing. What does this solve? It
solves nothing. It ends nothing. It just keeps the cycle repeating itself." I clamed down. "Amber. Please come with me. I don't want to have to worry about
you."

"I...When...How...What will we do?" She finnaly got out.

"It doesn't matter. All that matters right now is that we leave." I replied as someone walked out of the Shadows. In my head I ran through the lists of hand
to hand combat that I knew.

"It'll be boring without you here." Johnathan said stepping out of the shadows. "I'm coming as well."

"Thank you." I said relaxing.

"We leave now." I said.

"Fine by me." Johnathan said while Amber nodded.

"Wait Johnathan. Stay until they come after us. Then disable one of them please." I pleaded.

"Well. Well. Quite the deciever are we?" he joked. "Fine by me."

_____________________________________________________________________________

1 hour later

_____________________________________________________________________________

"You ready Amber?" I asked.

"I'm ready." she replied.

With that the hanger doors blew open.

"Amber go ahead. I'll get one of them as they come out." I said

In about 5 mins they launched and I was ready.

I came out of cloacking and attacked the nearest one. It was Britney's. I ended up slicing off her head camera and her arm. With her main camera out she
had no choice but to fall back.

Johnathan on the other hand ended up taking both arms off of the Mystic Gundam. With no way to fight it also had to retreat.

Unfortunatly I had been hit while attacking Britney in the arm. Fortunatly my Gundam could take 2 hits.

Then the battle was a 2 on 2. Me and Johnathan vs Brian and Jon.

"We don't want to hurt you." Brain said over the com system.

"Funny. Neither do we. Just go back and we won't have to." I replied.

"You know I can't do that." Brian said.

"Then I guess we have to do this the hard way." I said quietly.

"Well then. Lets get started." he said as he charged foward with his sword aiming for my main camera. I dodged and sent my funnels to attack him. One hit
his leg. A funnel hit me in the back.

"Tricky." I thought. He went to use his beam rifle but one of my funnels shot it and blew it up. One by one our funnels blew each other up. Going down the
line until I had one left.

"This is it. I thought." as my funnel went to attack him. Then he sliced it and destoryed it.

"Tch. This is bad." I thought. As I shot my beam rifle and got a lucky shot in on his arm.

"This is it!!!!!!!!!" Brian shouted as he swung his sword at me. There was no time to avoid. But then his arm exploded from a shot fired from the Defiler.

"Perfect timing." I said over the com. "I think your done Brian retreat."

"Tch. No weapons." He grumbled.

I looked over to find Johnathan sitting there. "What were you doing?" I demanded.

"Watching you fight. You need training." he said teasing.

"Well excuse me Mr. Rich Boy. We can't all have the training you had." I replied joking back.

"Guys this is all well and good, but shouldn't we be leaving?" Amber asked bringing us back to reality.

Since that time I have made good terms with the Coalition, the GUA, and the newly formed group Celestial Angel.

I work as a mercenary for whoever hires me doing all sorts of jobs. I've gained the Shogun Rank. Which is the highest rank a mercenary can have. The world is
changing, but is it for better or worse?

"Ben. We just got info on a new warship that Celestial Angel is building called the StarCaster. All crew data has been fowarded to you." Amber said.

"Thanks Amber. Any new missions requests?" I asked.

"We got one from the GUG." She replied. "Patrol duty."

"Sounds boring. I'll look into it. Whens the meeting.?" I asked

"Three weeks from now." she replied.

I sighed. "Nothing for it then. Get me a time and place." I said.

Present Day

"So the meetings at 5:00?" I asked clarifying.

"Correct." Amber replied.

"You've asked that question so many times. Maybe you should just get it tatooed on your hand." Johnathan joked.

"It never hurts to be sure." I replied.

"Unless you get it tatooed. Then it only hurts for a bit." he continued on.

"Yeah. Whatever. Just be ready if it's a two person job." I snapped back.

"It's only 1." I thought to myself. "I have 4 hours to kill. Great."

I stroll around town until I spot Kyle and Cole. Or what I think is them. Fate and Sarah are there also for now I just observe.

"Well well...look what we have here"

"huh?"

upon hearing the voice Cole turns around to see Kyle.

"Are you following me?" Said Cole angirly

"What if I am?" Kyle responded

"Then stop"

"I was only joking"

"I don't care, so honestly what are you here for?" Cole asked

"Just getting something to eat, im not going to utterly fail in
combat like you"

"We, are the same" Cole said annoyed

"No were not, im way better" Kyle snapped

"You want to prove that to me?"

"Oh I will, 9:00 tonight, middle of the Atlantic a 1 on 1"

"You've got yourself a funeral" Cole snapped

"Yeah, and your the one getting burried haha" said Kyle laughing

"..."

"Lighten up it's only sparring, anyways im going to go, see ya
tough guy" Kyle exclaimed before running off.

"Well, this will make the patrol more interesting." I thought to myself. "I still have some time. I guess I'll get ammo and parts."

After I buy the ammo and parts I go to eat. I once again run into Cole, Fate, and Sarah.

"Then im off to go back to the ship" Cole remarked

"Cash or Card?" Said the Waitress

"Does anyone have any money to pay for this?" Sarah asked

"...." Fate and Cole both responded with blank expressions.

I laughed to myself. "I guess I can help them out this time." I thought to myself.

"Just add it to my tab." I told the waitress.

"Thank you" said Sarah and Fate at the same time.

"So can I get the names of the ones im paying for?" I needed to make sure they were who I thought they were.

"Im Sarah, this is Fate my sister, that sitting over there is Cole, he's a little anti-social." Sarah said.

"Ah, I thought it was you, I am Ben. You were assigned to Celestial Angel's new warship the "StarCaster" am I right?" It seems the info was right because
they looked stunned.

"..." Cole ignored the question.

"How did you know?" said Fate confused.

"Well, I am a Shogun Ranking Mercenary, I like to keep up to daten what my potential employers or enemies are doing." I continued.

"So you pretty much stalk everyone?" Asked Cole.

"You could look at it that way, or you can say im just being prepared, either way I hope I don't have to fight you in the field, espically you
Mr.Anti-Social"

"..."Cole didn't reply.

"Anyways, I have a meeting soon" I said as he walked away.

"I'll be seeing you again Cole. I have a feeling that today will be very interesting." I thought to myself.

Meeting

"So let me get right. You want me to go on a patrol mission?" I asked. "Why in the world would they hire me for this?" I thought.

"Thats right." the man replied.

"Allies will be?" I asked.

"Three mediocre piolts and you." He replied.

"I assume you know about the fight that will be going on?" I asked.

"Thats why we're hiring you. To prevent any fights from happening." he said clamly.

"I don't know if I can stop two super soldiers." I thought to myself.

I sighed. "Whats the pay?" I asked

"$10,000." he replied.

"Payment plan?" I questioned.

"To be delieverd upon completion." He said.

"What happens then if I say no?" I asked.

"If you say no then I'm afraid that you will not get anymore missions from us ever." He said with fake symphaty.

"Tch. Typical suits." I thought to myself.

"If you give me 1/2 up front I'm in. Can some of my allies help?" I asked.

"Nope just you." he said. "You've got yourself a deal."

"Great. Patrol duty. Where do I report and when do I need to be there?" I asked.

"Be there at 8. If things get too bad I'll sound the retreat flares." He said.

"Great." I said. "I might need it." I thought.

"I'm working with 3 rookies against 2 super soldiers. This day just keeps getting better and better." I thought to myself.

"Amber, send my Gundam down. I have a job to do." I said into my comlink.

"Can do." came the reply.

"This may not be all bad. After all. I will get to see the rookies squirm." I thought to myself as I walked to where my Gundam would land.

"Theres the fighting. Switch your com over to 5.88" The leader said.

"But thats their frequencey!" I said.

"We don't need privacy to beat them." The leader bragged.

"We should at least let them tire out first." I said.

"These guys will be a peice of cake." He said laughing.

"Why do you have to make this harder?" I thought to myself. "Whatever." I ended up saying.

"Next time they go to clash switch the frequency." He said.

They went to clash then a beam shot went between them.

"kyle..?" The piolt of the Avenged Gundam asked?

"I said absolutly no interruptions!" Kyle yelled.

"Quit acting Kyle! I don't care if your in white, thats no excuse to be acting this way!" Cole told him.

"White eyes? Is this the 'super solider' mode?. This is going to make this much harder." I thought to myself.

"You want acting? I'll show you acting!" Yelled kyle as he turned around and dashed towards us.

"I think for now I'll get in a good ambush position." I thought to myself.

"Bogey 1 is moving fast, spread out and surround him" the leader said.

"Uh?" Cole said. I was sure it was him now.

"I...I don't know, These 3 mechs shot at us, and now Kyle is going
to fight them...you know anything?" he continued talking to an unknown person.

"Is he talking to someone in the middle a battle?" I wondered.

"Im fine, just for now I don't know what to do..I'll probably just
let Kyle do his thing" Cole said.

"Thats one off my list fortunatly." I said.

"I really don't know what else to do, and our fight once again was going no where.." Cole answered.

"You picked the wrong day to get anywhere near me!" Yelled Kyle over the intercom.

"Alpha 1 and 2 stand down, I have this guy." Said a soldier smiling.

"Your alone? You ammuse me greatly!" The piolt of the Enlightened Gundam said flying towards the
soldier mech.

"I'm almost sure thats Kyle." I thought to myself.

Upon meeting Kyle clashes blades with the soldier, after clashing
for a split second Kyle immediatly gets the upperhand and Cut's
off the mech's arm.

"Wh-What!?" the commander said struggling.

"Having regrets!?" said Kyle cutting the mech straight in half.

"How did this happen?" were his last words.

"Idoit." I thought to myself.

"You two, no more one on one's. You all are to weak for that!" Said Kyle flying towards both of them with 1 Saber and his P-37 Rifle out.

"You forget you fool, it's a 2 on 1 we have the advantage!" said one of the remaining soldiers.

With this Kyle begins to laugh at his statment. Kyle then immediatly shoots the machine gun out of the first soldier's hands all the while rolling and
dodging fire from the second soldier's mech.

Immediatly Kyle clashes blades with the soldiers who's gun he destroyed earlier.

"I'll think ill play with you a little first." Kyle told the soldier

"H-huh!?" said the soldier frightended

Immediatly the second soldier attacks from the right side, Kyle makes his beam saber into a double and slashes of the left arm of the second soldiers mech,
all the while descending and then ascending to cut off both of the first soldiers legs.

"This guy?! Who is he?!" asked a soldier frightended

"Im kyle, but you won't be knowing that for long!" said kyle
as he held a rifle point-blank at the soldiers face.

"This guy. Hes agressive in his attacks." I thought. "Time for me to cut in."

With that I fired one shot that blew off his left arm..

"Wheres your special armour now?" I thought to myself.

"What the?" said Cole.

"Please don't join the fight now." I prayed.

"Another one just appeared..Im sorry but I can't retreat, as much as me and Kyle fight I won't allow him to die here." Cole said.

"So it is Kyle. This is bad. It seems he gets better the madder he becomes. And right now I'm think hes pretty mad." I thought to myself.

"Yeah, as much as I hate him. Anyhow, im going to go see if I can get these guys to tell me what they're doing here" stated Cole.

"Great. One more person to worry about." I thought glumly. "Hopefully those two can keep him occupied. I can't fight anyone else."

"Are your all's com system's on?" Cole asked them.

"You, your the other one! Get away from us!" said the soldiers.

"I have no reason to fight you, just what your doing here is all I ask." Cole told them.

Kyle came at me with his swords drawn. His plan was to use a beam at point black range.

"You seriously can't think I'll fall for that!" I taunted him while shooting a funnel in front of his course.

Then Kyle activated what can only be descirbed as wings and zoomed past me while trying to slice. I used one of my plam sabers to barely block it.

"Hes faster now. I thought." Then a shot got me in the arm. As I shot the funnel like thing that had shot me. "My armour can take 1 more." I thought to
myself.

I shot one my funnels at him it barely hit his leg. "What? He has the same armour as me?" I thought to myself.

As he dashed around for another attack instead of slicing he pulled his beam rifle out. My Funnel barely shot it in time.

"Is he changing tactics on me?" I thought.

Just then a funnel hit one of my arms.

"Tch. Out of armour. Where are those retreat flares." I thought as I shot and barely missed his leg.

He attemtped another swipe at me, but I barley blocked it. Then again for the cockpit, but I blocked it with my other hand. Then one of my funnels shot him
in the back.

"Still standing?" I thought to myself.

With that he began a barage of attacks aimed at my Gundam each time getting a little closer to hitting it.

Finally the retreat flares were fired.

With that. The Avenged stepped in front of Kyle and that was my time to escape. I went cloacked after that, but it still seemed like he knew where I was.

On our way back to base the piolts started talking.

"We knew we could take them. We let them off easy." They said.

"Yeah. Thats why your missing a few arms." I remarked. "Consider yourselfs lucky. Those were both super soldiers."

"Super soldiers?" They both asked in unison.

I nodded even though they couldn't see it. "Thats right. ACEs if you want to call them that." I said, but in reality they were so much more.

"We still could've-" One started.

"No you couldn't. Your not at the level and you may never be." I said as I cut the com channels.

"That one. Kyle. Hes going to make things interesting." I thought to myself as we headed back to base.

Spoiler: Chapter 6 - Tears

Chapter 6- Tears

A.D. - Anno Domini Year 2414

The Celestial War started 2402 had not yet been decided. The Coalition Army and the Global Unification Army
Organization had not settled their differences. After the Coalition turned corrupt, Heavy Fighting began to pop
up all over the world, killing off any civilaians that were in these battles. In the Midst of all this, small
terrorist organizations formed in hopes of one day rising up, claiming random civilans for "Super soldier" projects.
As time goes on the war seems to be worsening but never ending.

"That super soldier, Kyle. He might be as good as me." I thought to myself as I was on my way to where I went to think.

"Amber you there?" I asked. I wanted to talk to someone on the way there.

"Shes gone." Came Jonathan's voice over the com.

"Gone to where?" I asked confused.

"Same place your going I suppose." he replied in a calm voice.

"Why is she just now going there?" I asked myself more than to Johnathan.

"How should I know?" came the remark.

"Sorry. I guess I shouldn't have said that out loud." I apologizing.

"No kidding." He joked back.

"Yeah well. Better go get her." I replied.

________________________________

Later that day

________________________________


"So why are you coming here now?" I asked after locating her. Amber had long black hair and brown eyes. She was quite beautiful, but now those eyes were
filled with sadness.

She turned around surprised. "Oh. I needed to see it with my own eyes. I can't believe I haven't came here before," She said when she realized it was me.

"I guess because you didn't want it to be true. Some things just shouldn't happen," I said. "I come to this village often. To think about what we're doing.
How the wars going. And why stuff like what happened to our village happens." I said sadly.

"So have you come up with anything?" she asked in the same tone.

"We can't sit by and do nothing. We can't join the Coalition or the GUA. They're too corrupt. And Celestial Angel is built on a flawed idea. Fighting to end
fighting. Blindly charging into fight people. Trying to interrupt every battle. Thats not a plan. They're just hoping for the best. So right now there's
nothing else to do except continue what we're doing. We aren't doing much to further the war but right now that's the only sensible option." I finished.

"You've thought about this a lot, haven't you?" she asked after I finished.

"I come here often to think about lots of things. Sometimes I think on what exactly we're doing," I replied as I sat down.

"I can't believe this actually happened." Amber said looking around at the village.

"It's sad that all of this could be wiped out in a few short minutes." I said.

We sat for a few minutes not talking.

"Remember when you tried to convince your parents that your neighbor wrecked your house." She said laughing, but her eyes carried sadness.

"I do." Then I paused. "It's okay to cry." I finally said.

She started crying as her memories from her time in the village started coming back. I understood the feeling. I had been here many times. I had my regrets,
my memories, my tears.

I hugged her as I said, "I promise this war will end. There will be peace. And the innocent won't have to worry, but for a bit longer this must be
endured."

I hugged until she cried herself out. Then I waited a few minutes. "You ready to go back?" I asked quietly.

"We don't have a choice, do we?" she replied.

"There's always a choice. I just hope this is the right one." I said.

_______________________________

Back at base

_______________________________

"So what took you so long?" Johnathan asked when we got back.

"Just sight-seeing." I said as Amber left the room.

"So you get the girl?" Johnathan asked half-joking.

"Shut it." I replied.

"It's so obvious you like her." he continued.

"Shut it or I'll hit you." I said starting to get angry.

"Okay. Okay. No need to get so jumpy." he said.

"Johnathan. Do you think we're doing the right thing?" I asked.

"What do you mean?" he said puzzled.

"Should we be doing more to end the war?" I continued.

"Well if we had stayed with the Coalition this war might be over." He said. I nodded I had that thought many times myself. "But then again they themselves
might have started another war. But at the current point theres nothing we can do," he finished. "Why do you ask?" he wondered.

"I wanted to know....if theres a quicker way to end this war." I said.

"Guys!!!!!!!! We just got a new mission!!!!!" Amber said running into the room. She stopped short and looked at both of us. "Did I miss something?" she asked
puzzled.

"No," we both said at the same time and laughed.

"I hope this war ends soon." I thought to myself. "I can't stand another inncident like what happened to my village. I sometimes wonder if we could be
doing more."

Chapter 7- The Past and the Present

A.D. - Anno Domini Year 2414

The Celestial War started 2402 had not yet been decided. The Coalition Army and the Global Unification Army
Organization had not settled their differences. After the Coalition turned corrupt Heavy Fighting began to pop
up all over the world, killing off any civilaians that were in these battles. In the Midst of all this, small
terrorist organizations formed in hopes of one day rising up, claiming random civilans for "Super soldier" projects.
As time goes on the war seems to be worsening but never ending.

"So let me get this straight." I said to the Coalition's representative. "We are to assit the Liberty in this upcoming battle?"

"Correct." he said.

"According to sources this is the biggest battle yet. So how much you offering?" I asked.

"$100,000." He replied.

"Please. I make that on a bad day. Make it $1,000,000 and we're in."I said.

"What? No way!!!!" he said.

"I guess we could always go to the GUA. I'm sure they'd love help in this fight." I said faking sadness.

"Fine. $1,000,000." he said then started mumbling under his breath.

"Now. Where do we go?" I asked.

__________________________________________________

Later

__________________________________________________

"Australia?!!!??" Johanthan asked in disbelief.

"Yes. This will make it the largest battle ever fought in the war so far." I replied.

"All right lets get going." Amber said starting to head off.

"Actaully. It's just me and John. They didn't want to hire a third." I lied as she stopped in her tracks. I just didn't want her fight. It was very likely
she could die. I wasn't going to risk that.

"Oh." She said surprised.

"You ready to go John?" I asked turning to him.

"Wait!!!!" Amber yelled.

"What is it?" we both asked spinning around.

"Another patrol party." she said.

"It's like their looking for someone." Johnathan said smiling.

"It's almost as if they don't want anyone else in space." I added afterward. Truth be told Celestail Angel didn't want anyone entering space regardless. It
could be civilans, soliders, and especially mercs.

"Well. We just have to wait a few minutes then they'll be gone." I said.

___________________________________________________

A few minutes later

___________________________________________________

"Okay. They're gone. Your free to go." Amber said.

"we'll see you later." I said.

"To bad you couldn't come. I could've recused the dasmel in distress." John joked.

Amber scwoled at him while I didn't say anything.

___________________________________________________

On Earth

___________________________________________________

"Eternal and Order Gundam you are free to land on the hanger B-2." the sound came over the com.

"Roger control." I said.

Then I switched to our private channel.

"Landing zone?" Johnathan asked.

"Hanger B-2" I replied.

"So. You think their still mad about that day?" I asked.

"It's been 6 years. Theres no way their still mad." He replied.

"I guess your right." I said.

"They did get a new captain though. You hear about that?" I asked while I was landing.

"No. What are they like?" he asked.

"I guess we'll find out." I said.

"Ben. I presume." The Captain said as we walked out of the hanger.

"You assume correctly." I replied.

"Does the pretty lady have a name?" Johnathan asked.

"My name is Captian Noel. The 'pretty lady' is your empolyer." she said while scowling.

I laughed.

"Altough you can call me Sam." so said looking confused while Johnathan just looked embaressed.

I laughed even harder.

"We launch at day break." Feel free to walk around the ship, but you will have an escort." she said.

"Sounds good to me Sam." I said.

She started to walk away.

"Sam." I said as she turned around.

"Do you know if Britney, Jon, Steven, and Brian are around?" I asked.

"I do, but why do you want to know?" she asked clearly suprised.

"Seems they didn't tell you. I used to be stationed on this warship before I became a merc." I said.

"Then you should be placed under arrest for treason." she said as gaurds started to move in on us.

"Thats a bad idea." I said. "If you do that our other co-worker will blow the ship up and kill us all. We both have cameras in our Gundams." I finished.

"I see." she said. "In that case. I guess I'll have them meet you in the conference room. Wait there." she said as she walked off.

"Are you crazy?" Johnathan asked as she walked off.

"I never said you had to come." I replied.

"But she-I-" He struggled for something to say. "Fine. I'm going to my room." he replied clearly in a bad mood.

"Later then." I said as he walked away.

I walked in and sat down on the couch. "It's been six years. Are they still mad?" I thought. "They've probably gotten over it. I wonder if they've started
seeing the corruption. They must have all the death and pointless killing. The real question. What will they do about it though? Will they have seen enough?
Will I be able to get any of them to come with me at the end of this?"

"Earth to Ben." a familiar voice said.

"Hey Brian." I said as I looked up.

"You looked so serious." He said. "You've changed so much. I hear you have quite the reputation." he said.

"Your not doing so bad either Second Lieutenant Brian." I smiled as I shook his hand.

"So you know already?" he asked smiling back. Then the smile faded. I knew what he was going to ask before he asked it. "That day. Why did you leave?" he
asked with a completly serious look on his face.

I grimaced. It seems he still didn't see it. "That day. I left because-" I started.

"Hey Ben!!!" everyone yelled as they came in.

"Hey guys." I replied back.

"You were saying?" Brian asked.

"I'll tell you later." I answered.

"So how you been?" Britney asked.

"I've become a top ranking merc." I said as I moved to shake their hands.

"From what I hear you haven't done so bad yourselfs." I said. "It's so good to see you all. I'm gald you came down here. Britney, Jon, and Steven."

"Actually it's-" Britney started

"Thats right the promotions. I should be saying Sergent Major Britney, Sergent First Class Steven, and Sergent Jon." I finished for her.

"Yep!" Came Britney's cheerful reply. "We've also been keeping count." She continued.

"Count of what?" I asked confused.

"Well what you and Johnathan would have been." she said as if it was crystal clear.

"And what would we be?" I asked while smiling. I was amused by this concept.

"Well we all think different things, but as an average we think you would be Lieutenant Colonel." she said.

I laughed. "And what makes you think that?" I asked.

"You might be able to take all four of us at once." Steven said.

"I don't know about that. Maybe me and Johnathan could if we were together." I replied.

"Speaking of Johnathan where is he?" Jon asked. Jon had always been better friends with Johnathan then he had with me.

"He didn't want to come. He went to his room. He was wanting to avoid-" I stopped. I really didn't feel like answering that question to all of them right
then.

"Why you left." Steven finished for me as I sat down.

"Yeah." I said.

"So?" Britney asked.

"So what?" I replied back.

"Why did you desert?" Brian asked the interest back in his eyes.

I deliberately turned around got a soda and took a drink. It turned out to be flat so I dumped it and trashed the can then turned back around.

"I...I don't want to talk about it. If you all haven't seen it by now theres no point in me explaining it." I said.

"What-" Jon started.

"We'll just leave it there." Brian said obviously not satisfied.

"Thanks guys." I said.

"Should we go bug Johnathan?" I asked.

"Sure lets go invade his room." Jon answered.

____________________________________________

Johnathan's Room

____________________________________________

"Ah come on. You brought them into my room?" he asked in disbielf.

"I'm sorry they wanted to see you. There was nothing I could do." I said while throwing up my hands.

"Yeah. We forced you all right 'You want to bug Johnathan?'" Brian mimicked me.

I laughed. Johnathan scowled.

"How am I supposed to prepare for the battle tomorrow if I can't even concentrate????!?!?!!!" he yelled.

That stopped all the laughter. Everyone was quiet for a few moments.

Brian finally spoke. "Anyone one of us could die tomorrow, but we're all still here because we're the best, but lets make a promise. Lets promise to all come
back alive tomorrow."

"Promise" They all said.

"You too." he said looking at me and Johnathan.

"I promise." Johnathan said.

Everyone was looking at me.

"I have to much to live for. I won't get shot down. I promise as well." I said.

After that the conversation picked up again. I had to interrupt "But we need a plan." I said.

"What do you mean?" Brian asked confused.

"This battle won't be a 1 on 1. Celestial Angel will send a ship as well. We need some kind of strategy to defeat them." I said.

"I see what you mean." Brian said. "In that case we should probably stay together as much as possible and we should probably go to sleep now while we can."
he finished.

"Agreed." I said.

_______________________________________________

Later that night

_______________________________________________

"I still can't believe they still don't see why I left." I thought to myself. "It's so obvious."

"You still up?" Brian's voice came through on the com from my door.

"Yeah. Why?" I asked.

"Meet me in the hanger." he said.

"Why? Whats going on? What about my gaurds?" I asked.

"I told them I would watch you for a bit. I need to talk to you and hurry." he added.

________________________________________________

Hanger

________________________________________________

"So this is where it happened." he said talking about me leaving.

"Is that why I'm here?" I asked.

"Yes. You said you would tell me later. Nows as good a time as any." he said.

"I left because..." I started then tired to explain it a different way. "Take a look around you. The Coalition is corrupt. They promote you for killing.
They're policies are absurd and thats just now. If they were to take over the world. It would just as bad as the GUA winning." I finished.

"I see." he said as he thought over what I had just said.

"Do you regret staying?" I asked.

"Sometimes." he replied.

"Now?" I said pushing the question.

"Now....Yes...I've seen the corruption. I just didn't want to believe it." he said.

"The real question is: Do you regret leaving?" he asked.

"It thought about it for a bit. Then I finally said "No. I did what I think is right and I stick by that." I finished.

"Thats the way I feel about staying." He said.

"I see." I said slowly.

"Let me leave you with a thought." I said. "If your fighting for a corrupt cause. Then whats the point in fighting when you know they will abuse the power?
Well I'm going to bed. See you tomorrow on the battlefield."

__________________________________________________

Day of the Battle

__________________________________________________

"All Gundam piolts report to your Gundms." the intercom blared.

"This seems fimiliar." I said as I hoped into my Gundam.

"But this time no one is going to die." Brian said.

"Because we made a promise." Britney said.

"Promises only get you so far." I thought to myself.

"All Gundams launch." The com blared.

"Ben" Sam said over the com. "Your job will be to assist this ship in it's objectives."

"Yes mame." I said.

"Please call me Sam." She said.

"Sorry...Sam" I said.

"I'll be counting on you." she added.

"...." I didn't answer her.

"I'm just kidding. Lighten up." she said.

"Is she always like that?" I asked.

"I'm still here you know?" she said getting angry.

"I know. I was making a joke." I said then laughed.

Then I heard laughing over the intercom.

"Are you laughing?" I asked surprised.

"Yes. Your the weirdest mercenary I've ever met." she said.

"Is that a good thing?" I asked.

"Possibly." She answered.

"Hate to bring up this lovely conversation, but we need to launch." Brian cut in.

"Right." I said slightly embarrased.

"Eternal launching." I said.

All the Gundams then departed.

"Seems like we're early." I said.

"That or maybe they were to scared." Johnathan joked.

"If only war was that easy." I thought to myself.

"There!!!" Shouted Jon. "About 100 feet away."

Then they started appearing in drones.

"How many allies did you say we would have?" I asked.

"About 200 soliders from each side." Brian replied.

"This is going to be boring." I said. "They aren't even any Ace's." I complained.

Everyone laughed.

"Remember the plan. Stay together as much as possible." Brian said.

"Right." everyone said.

Then we dashed into the thick of the enemy advance.

The first mech I encountered tired to go close range with one sword. I easily defelected it with one of the sabers from my plam and then sliced the cockpit
with another.

"I'm in a 5 on 1. Help!!!!" Jon said.

"Stay cool. I've got you." I said over the com. I easily located him and took out two of the 5 with two funnel shots.

Two of the remaining ones tired to shoot me with their beams rifles, but I pulled out my double-bladed sword to deflect it then threw it at them hitting the
third in the process.

"Piece of cake." I said.

"Guys we just got word Celestial Angel has entered the battlefield." Brian said over the com. "We're to go after that ship."

Just then 10 people got in our way.

"Go. Me and Johnathan can handle this." I said.

As they were heading away. One of the mechs tired to shoot him. I sent my funnels to blow up his hand.

"Your fight is with us." I said as I charged foward and sliced the mech in half with one of my swords.

"Johnathan you take those five." I said as I charged at the four that had seperated.
"You can't beat us. We still have the advantage in numbers." One of the soliders said.

"If your still saying that you have a lot to learn about war and little time left to learn it." I said as one of my funnels blew up another mech.

The other three rushed me at the same time. The first two were easy to dodge. They came at me with a simple thrust. The last came at me slicing diagonally.
I deflected that and shot the cockpit at point-blank range.

The next came at me alone trying to shoot me, but I shot it's gun off. then shot it with one of my funnels.

"Who...Who are you?" the last one asked in terror as he tried to run away. I went to slice his mech in half, but then I thought better of it and sliced
slightly above the cockpit removing the top half of the mech from the bottom. Then I sliced the legs off.

"Liberty. I'm coming back with a prisoner. Where do you want him?" I asked.

"Take him to hanger A-1." Sam said clearly surprised over the radio.

"Can do." I replied. I switched my mic over to the enemy's frequency.

"You are now prisoner. If you resist you will be killed. Is this clear?" I asked him.

"Perfectly." he said frightened.

"Good." I replied as I landed in the hanger.

"Hes all yours." I said after I switched frequncies over again.

"Ben. Brian and the others are engaging two unknown mechs. They're being beaten. Your new job is to assist them."

"What do they look like?" I asked.

"Well. Ones blue and black-" Sam said.

"Kyle!!!!!!!" I yelled into the mic.

"I won't let him kill anyone else. Jonhathan I need you to help me." I said as my implant started to activate.

"What?" he said.

"We're going after Kyle." I shouted.

"That super solider guy." he said as 2 mechs blocked the way.

"OUT OF THE WAY!!!!!!!!!!" I yelled at the mechs. I streaked past them slicing off one of their arms. Jonathan blew them up behind me.

"I'm to slow. I'm activating the solar power." I said as I started it up.

Two more mechs got in my way when I could see the fight. I sliced right through them and turned off my solar power. Just in time. Kyle was about to kill
one of them. I threw my sword to intercept him. Sure enough he stopped.

"You again?" Kyle yelled.

"I won't let you kill my friends!!!" I yelled back. "You guys get the other mech. Johnathan your with me." I said.

Spoiler: Chapter 8 - Remains

Chapter 8- Remains

A.D. - Anno Domini Year 2414

The Celestial War started 2402 had not yet been decided. The Coalition Army and the Global Unification Army
Organization had not settled their differences. After the Coalition turned corrupt Heavy Fighting began to pop
up all over the world, killing off any civilaians that were in these battles. In the Midst of all this, small
terrorist organizations formed in hopes of one day rising up, claiming random civilans for "Super soldier projects.
As time goes on the war seems to be worsening but never ending.

"You again?" Kyle yelled.

"I won't let you kill my firends!!!" I yelled back. "You guys get the other mech. Johnathan your with me." I said.

"Can't you just get the hint you suck." he yelled getting angry.

"You can't be allowed to hurt anyone else." I thought my eyes turning dark red from the implant.

"Why do you interupt again?" Kyle screamed into the mic. "I'll kill you this time." He said as he shot one of his "Fangs" at me. They were kinda like
funnels but better. I dodged to the side as he threw his axe at me. I deflected it with my doubled-bladed saber at the cost of it being destroyed into two
halfs.

"You've gotten better," Kyle said "but your still not good enough to defeat me."

"This guys a bit overconfident. Don't you think Ben?" Johnathan asked.

"No. Hes good. I've fought him before. He was beating me with one arm." I said as I did a barrel roll to avoid the fang coming straight at me. Then he
tired to slice me from the side.I deflected with my plam saber and dashed downward while sending one of my funnels at him. He dodged to the left and got
hitby one of Johnathan's rifle losing an arm.

"YOU COWARD!!!!!!! HOW DARE YOU ATTACK ME FROM BEHIND!!!!!!!!" Kyle screamed into the com. With that he dashed at Kyle activating his wings and pulling out
his sword. Slicing off his left leg instead of killing him. He raised his gun and he was already gone.

I activated my Solar Energy to keep up with him. "Leave him alone!!!!" I yelled as one of my rifle shots as he barely dodged to the side.

"What is this a coward convention?" he yelled. As he dashed towards me, but I was ready. He tired to slice me but I used one of my plam sabers to block the
attack and got hit in the back by one of his fangs as I attacked with a funnel from point black range destroying one of his legs.

After that we dashed away.

"Jon!!" yelled Brian and the others over their com's suddenly.

"What happened?" I asked being distracted. When I turned back around Kyle was gettting ready to attack my Gundam for a final attack. I barely moved out of
the way in time, but not before it claimed my left arm. I took that chance to counter attack and destroy his other arm.

"They got Jon." Brian said over the com.

"Thats it!!!!!!!!! I'll kill all of you!!!!!" I yelled my implant making me even stronger.

"I can stil fight!!!!" Kyle yelled.

"No you can't it's over!!!!!" as one of my funnels shot his Gundam's main camera off. "Now you die!!!!!!!!!!!!" I yelled as I sliced towards the cockpit.

Just then a beam shot interrupted my path from what I could only assume to be Aaron's Gundam.

"Retreat Kyle. I've got you covered." Aaron said over the com.

"Retreat...How disgraceful." Kyle said.

"Your not getting away that easy." I yelled as I went after him.

Aaron tired to stop me, but Johnathan intercepted him mid-way.

"Go. I've got this guy." Johnathan yelled.

"I won't let you escape." I yelled at Kyle.

I went to slice the cockpit but one of my legs blew up instead.

"What the?" I said.

"Kyle go. I'll hold him off." Michael their last Ace said.

"Why does everyone want to protect you?" I yelled into the mic as I sent my funnels at him and went in for a frontal attack with my sword.

"Just die!!!!!!!" I yelled when I clashed. Then my funnels shot him with my funnels barely phased his arm.

"Get out of my way!!!!!" I yelled as I fired the cannons on my back. He dodged to the side so intead they hit the StarCaster.

"You'll pay for that." Michael said he said while he got faster.

"Hes gone." I said when I lost track of Kyle. "Why would you protect someone like that?" I asked. While boosting down to avoid the the funnels while
destroying 2 of them.

"Who are you?" he asked into the com.

"My names Ben now move aside or die." I yelled as I destroyed another one of his funnels.

"I'll keep it in mind." he said.

Just then the StarCaster fired retreat flares.

"Retreat flares......" I said.

"Go. Your not worth my time." I said as I turned to go back to the battlefield as my implant died down.

"We're to regroup at the Liberty." Brian said over the com.

"Coming back to ship." I said.

Back at Ship

"I can't believe hes dead." Brian said.

"He promised." Britney said.

"This is why we have to end this war," Steven said. "and you!!!!" he yelled pointing at me. "You didn't even help avenge his death."

I stayed quiet as he came across the room. "Well do you have an answer?" he demanded.

"If I had come to help you we might all be dead." I said.

"Why you-" He started.

"Cool it." Brian said. This isn't going to help anything.

"Excuse me. I have to go work on my Gundam." I said. "How long until we launch again Sam?" I asked.

"Of course you would walk away." Steven said.

"Thats enough or I'll have you thrown in the brig." Sam said.

"You have until tomorrow." she said turning to me.

"Seems I'm pulling an all nighter." I said.

__________________________________________

Later that night

__________________________________________

"I'm finally done." I said to myself.

"So I'm not interrupting anything right?" Sam said walking in.

"No." I replied surprised she was her.

"I wanted to talk to you about something." Sam said.

"What?" I asked confused.

"Why...Why did you leave the Coalition?" Sam asked.

"Don't you have anything better to be doing? Like leading the ship. We are still in a combat zone." I said.

"I'm on break." Sam said getting closer.

I sighed.

"We don't have to talk about this if you don't want to." she said.

"No it's fine. I'm trying to think of where to start." I replied. "Something happened when I was young. Something terrible. The Coalition took me in and
offered me revenge, but that solved nothing. A war fought for revenge is a war that will lead to corruption. You understand?" I asked.

"Not really." she admited.

"Let me explain it this way. If the government your fighting for is corrupt in times of war. They'll be that much more corrupt with absolute power." I said.

"...." Sam thought about it.

"Why do you fight Sam?" I asked.

"I want a world at peace, even it is under a corrupt government." Sam finished.

"I'm going to bed if you don't mind, but first I'll leave you with a thought." I said. "If a corrupt government takes control others will rise up to crush
it and another war will spawn. Do you really want that to happen?"

____________________________________________

The Next Day

____________________________________________

"All Gundams launch" The com blared.

"I'll kill all of them for Jon!!!!" Steven yelled over the com.

"Actaully this mission it's just Britney, Ben, and Johnathan." Brian said. "Our Gundams are too badly damaged."

"Phoniex Gundam taking off." Britney said

"Ben. Don't let her die." Sam said over the com.

"Yes mame." I said as I launched.

"Seems they have Mobile Armours this round." Johnathan said.

"I've heard of them. Napalm I believe it's called. Altough I can't be sure till I get closer. I might need someone to help me take it down." I said.

"I'll help." Britney said.

"I'm going to go attack it. After I attack. I'll need you to help me. I said then went cloaked.

"It is the Napalm." I thought to myself. I attacked with all my funnels and my beam rifle. They were intercepted by it's shield-bits.

"Britney watch out this one has Mobile Armour has shield bits." I said over the com as it turned to fight me. "I think I got 3 of them." I said as I dashed
away from the Gundam. And fired my 2 cannons on my back destroying two more Shield Bits.

Then Johnathan attacked it with the cyclone twice destroying two more shield bits. As it attacked me with a flame thrower melting my left leg as I barely
dodged to the right.

Briteny attacked with her bazzoka and destroyed another shield bit as it fired it's rifle as Johnathan dodged up and his hand was destroyed and his right
leg got scraped by the beam. Britney fired another shoot as it was interecepted again by a shield bit. As she got was about to get shot by one of it's gaint
lazer I sent my funnels to block it and it blew off her left arm.

"So much for that beam rifle." I said over the com.

"I'm activating my implant manually." I said over the com, thats was the last thing I remember.

______________________________________________

Ben then shot 2 more shots from his cannons destroying two more shield bits. While Britney shot 2 more more bazzoka shots and Johnathan shot the cyclone 3
times. Ben shot the last of the missles from his cannon destroying two more shield bits. Ben then threw a sword at the Gundam only to be intercepted by
another shield bit. Britney destroyed the last one. The Napalm tired to shoot Ben, but Ben activated his Solar Energy and dodged easily as Britney
dispatched the Mobile Armour with another bazzoka shot.

Ben then went to attack the oncoming enemies as the retreat flares were fired. He kept going.

"Ben. What are you doing?" Johnathan yelled over the com.

_______________________________________________

"Ben. What are you doing?" Johnathan yelled over the mic.

"Retreat flares?" I asked going back to the ship.

"Yeah. You completely ignored them." Britney said.

"Like you weren't there or something." Johnathan said.

"...." I didn't answer. I had blacked out. It sometimes happened when I activated my implant. I still hadn't learned to control it. Fortunatly there hadn't
been any Coalition soliders around that I didn't know. They would be dead now.

_______________________________________________

Back at base

_______________________________________________

"The Coalition is withdrawing from the battlefield." Sam said the next day.

"What?" Steven yelled.

"we aren't winning. Yesterday we almost lost." I said.

"But I saved the day." Brintey said.

I didn't say anything neither did anyone else.

"Your also free to go Ben and Johnathan." Sam said turning towards us.

"Thank you." I said.

_______________________________________________

Launching

_______________________________________________

"Your pay has been halfed since we didn't win" Sam said.

"I'm not a miricale worker." I said back.

"Also. Thank you for saving Britney." Sam said.

"There really wasn't any other option." I said. "Just think about what I said."

"I will." Sam said. "Take care."

"I will. Until we met again." I said.

Really long chapter.

Spoiler: Chapter 9 - State of Affairs

Chapter 9- State of Affairs

A.D. - Anno Domini Year 2414

The Celestial War started 2402 had not yet been decided. The Coalition Army and the Global Unification Army
Organization had not settled their differences. After the Coalition turned corrupt Heavy Fighting began to pop
up all over the world, killing off any civilaians that were in these battles. In the Midst of all this, small
terrorist organizations formed in hopes of one day rising up, claiming random civilans for "Super soldier projects.
As time goes on the war seems to be worsening but never ending.

"So you want me to help Celestial Angel?" I asked

"Thats correct." Celestial Angel's representative said.

"Where am I going? And how much does it pay?" I asked.

"You'll be going to the StarCaster. And your pay will be $20,000." He said.

"Tell me when." I said.

_____________________________________________

StarCaster

_____________________________________________

"Wow. This ship is damaged pretty badly and it's going into battle again?" I thought to myself. "Maybe Celestial Angel doesn't want to win this war. I feel
kinda gulity. I did help do this."

"This the Eternal. Where do you want me to land?" I said over the com.

"Go ahead and land in C-3." Sarah said over the com.

"Roger. Landing now." I said.

"Theres so much to do here. They can't really be sending this out to fight again." I thought to myself as I was getting out of my Gundam.

Just then I saw Kyle walking towards me.

"Well hello." Kyle said semi-mad.

"Do you want something?" I asked.

"Just a question" responded Kyle.

"Well if you have nothing in particular. I have a meeting with the captain." I said stepping past him.

"So your walking off like a coward just like when your pioliting a Mech?" stated Kyle with a smile.

I stopped. "I knew you couldn't be nice. Just because you don't know the meaning of ally doesn't mean I don't." I said smiling back.

"You do know the meaning of allies, since you always seem to have one." Kyle said.

"I'm not the one that got shot down. Now am I?" I said and then laughed.

"Wanna repeat that line when we have a fair fight?" Kyle challenged.

"If this is all just a matter of pride, which it is, then I'm going to have to say no." I said as I turned away.

"Changing the Subject? Looks like we have two babies on this ship" Kyle said.

"Fighting for no reason is pointless." I said over my shoulder as I kept walking.

"Cold Shoulder, yep, baby" said Kyle walking off.

"At least I'm a baby that knows when to call it quits." I said not even looking at him.

"You don't when you have an ally" He mocked.

I ignored him as I walked out.

"Are you the guy that just landed?" a guy that walked up to me said.

"I am." I replied.

"So your the one I fought out there. I'm Michael by the way." he said.

"Sorry about that. It was my job." I said.

"It's okay." Michael said. "Well I have to go attend to the repairs. See ya."

"That was odd." I said.

"Captain Peters I suppose?" I asked.

"Yes?" he said a bit surprised.

"I've been sent here to help you in your next mission." I said.

"Thats fine. Explore the ship, but you'll have escorts." Peters said.

"Who are the escorts?" I asked.

"Oh right." He said as he walked over to the com.

"Cole and Michael you will escort our guest." he said over the com.

"Hello again." Michael said as he walked in. "Seems we'll be together for a bit longer."

"Great. It'll make it that much harder to kill you next time we fight." I thought to myself.

"Hey." I said as Cole walked in.

"..Hey." He replied.

"So," I said turning to the captain. "where can't I go?"

"The engine room and the weapons storage room." Peters said.

"So first thing first where am I staying?" I asked my two escorts.

"
I don't know." Cole said.

"Well I do, but I'll show you later." Michael said.

"In that case, what do you want to do?" I asked them.

"Whatever you want to do." Michael answered.

"And you?" I said turning to Cole.

"I don't care..." Cole said.

"Anyone I should meet?" I asked Cole.

"I launch and do my part as I see fit, so ask a soldier in the hangar" Cole replied. I laughed.

"And you Michael?" I asked.

"I would say Fate and Sarah. They are in charge of everything that goes on in the hanger." Michael said.

"Lets go meet them then." I said.

"Oh hey Cole, hey Michael, and...oh I remember you" Sarah said.

"Long time no see." I said dryly.
"That long ago? Time goes by I guess. Anyways last time why did you have to be so creepy?" Sarah said.

"Creepy?" I questioned.

"Look back at what you did and get back to me" Sarah said.

"I paid your bill. Thats what I did. Or are you talking about the knowing your names and history?" I asked.

"Both" Sarah said.

"So what are you three here for?" asked Fate.

"Michael said I should meet you both because your in charge of everything that goes on in the hangers." I replied.

"Oh, well we really don't do anything. Mainly Sarah, Cole, and I just hang out up here" Fate said.

"Should I take that as my que to leave?" I asked.

"Yes." Michael said.

"I'm sorry about your brother. Both of you." I said to Fate and Sarah. "And I'm sorry for what happened to you." I said looking at Cole.

"Im just going to stay here" Cole said.

"The captians fine with that?" I asked.

"He doesn't care..." Cole said.

"I see..." I said looking at him. "I really am sorry." I said walking out.

"..." Cole said.

"I want to walk down the hall." I said to Michael.

I walked into the camera hall and thought I saw the cameras on a loop.

________________________________________________

Hanger

________________________________________________

"Get out of my Gundam!!!" I yelled at the person who was in it startling him.

"I was just-" he said.

"No one touches my Gundam. I'll repair it when need be." I said.

"You can't talk to me that way. I'm the son of the Captian of this ship, Matthew." he said.

"Well in that case. Touch my Gundam ever again and I'll kill you. We clear?" I asked.

"You can't-" He started.

"I'm not a solider I'm a mercenary." I said.

Matthew stormed away.

As I was locking up my Gundam a message started to play.

"Members of the GUA and Celestial Angel hear me now." The president of the Coalition said, as a few GUA and Celestial Angel prisoners were brought out.
"This is the fate of all who oppose us." he continued then nodded. The prisoners were shot and killed. "I am broadcasting on all frequencies. Leave your
respective armies now and no harm will come to you. Choose wisely." he said as the video winked out.

"Does he want the war to continue?" I asked out loud as I locked up my Gundam.

"I suppose it was meant to scare some people off and it may well have, but for the most part it just angered people." A man said walking up to me.

"And you are?" I asked.

"I'm Daichi. I'll be planning all the stratigies. Now if you excuse me I have to prepare for the next battle." he said as he walked off.

"That was random." I said.

"Hes good at what he does." Michael said.

"I see..." I lied, not really seeing how he was that good when he was so young.

"We better go see how Fate and Sarah are holding up after that announcement." Michael said.

I shruged.

"So did your guys see the video?" Michael asks.

"Using brutality to strike fear in the hearts of your enemies, to bad it's not working..at least on me" Cole said.

"...No Comment" Fate said.

"Why did I just watch that..?" Sarah asked.

"Probably because it was on every frequencey. It would be hard to not have watched it." I said.

"I could have closed my eyes" Sarah replied.

"You still would have heard it." I said queitly.

"I could have went to my room" Sarah replied.

"True, but thats not what he asked." I said.

"Yes. I watched the video." Sarah said.

"So how are you doing after seeing it?" I said.

"Fine. I guess." Sarah.

"And you?" I said turning to Fate.

"Same." Fate said.

I sighed. "See you later." I said as I left.

"So Michael. Why do you fight in this war?" I asked him.

"I fight to provide for my family." He replied. "Why do you fight?" he asked staring at me.

"Your probably to young to remember it, but a long time ago the GUA sent out killing parties that went to villages and killed everyone they could find. Men,
women, children." I said looking at him. "I've talked to some of those people. Been to the places it happened. I promised I would never let that happen
again." I said stopping.

"Then why not join Celestial Angel?" Michael asked.

I smilied. "I can't join the GUA or the Coalition. Celestial Angel would be nice, but it's bulit on a flawed concept. Fighting to stop the fighting is a
cause that defeats itself. Besides that, they have no plan. They go to every battle and hope they get lucky. No offense." I added

"None taken." Michael said.

"All StarCaster poilts regardless of rank and Ben report to the conference room." The captain blared over the intercom.

"I think thats our next mission." Michael said.

"Yep. Lets go." I said.

A.D. - Anno Domini Year 2414

The Celestial War started 2402 had not yet been decided. The Coalition Army and the Global Unification Army

As time goes on the war seems to be worsening but never ending.

"Thank you all for coming today." Daichi said.

"Like we had a choice." I thought to myself.

"We'll be going over the startegy for the next battle." He continued.

"When is this ship going into battle again?" Someone asked.

"This ship will be going into battle tomorrow Aaron." Peters said.

"Tomorrow?" I yelled. "This ship won't be able to fight by tomorrow!!!!"

"That why we're using a startegy." Daichi said. "Now if you let me continue."

"This ship is to badly damaged." I thought to myself.

"Now then, we are going to attack a Coalition base in South Africa." Daichi said.

"But doesn't that violate your beliefs? Not to attack unless they attack others?" I asked.

"Yes, but this base is planning to attack." Peters said.

"They could still decide not to." I thought to myself. "Is Celestial Angel starting to become corrupt?"

"Anyway," Daichi continued "Aaron will stay to gaurd the StarCaster. Michael, Ben, and Cole will attack the base from two fronts."

"Two?" Michael asked.

"Thats right. Cole and Ben will attack from one one distracting any Ace's that may be there. You will attack the base itself." Diachi said.

"So in other words, we're killing everything that moves here?" I asked.

"In essence." Diachi said. I shuddered. "Is that a problem?" he asked.

"What if they surrender?" I asked.

"Then we'll take them prisoner." Diachi said. "They probably won't though."

"I knew you were a whimp. You always have someone helping you." Kyle said. Just like you always ha-" Stopped Kyle right before being
interrupted.

"Excuse me, since you've had such an easy childhood." I said.

"Cool it." Peters said. "Kyle you will be support on this mission since your Gundam will not be able to launch." Kyle glared at me.

"Unless theres anymore questions you all are dismissed." Diachi said.

"We start the operation at 0900 tomorrow." Peters said.

"Also if need be Aaron can act as support for Michael if need be." Diachi added.

"Cole. I word with you if I could." Diachi said as we left.

Control Tower of the StarCaster

"Hey." I said walking into the control tower. "Mind if I stay for a bit?" I asked.

"Sure, I don't care" Sarah said.

"I'm sorry about eariler." I said.

"It's alright, I already forgot about it." Sarah said.

"Thanks." I said.

"How do you know?" Fate asked.

I sighed. "Well I knew your names because I have a contact inside Celestial Angel. They gave me the data on this warship and the crew of the warship. So
from their it was just a matter of reading the file." I said.

"Oh.?" Sarah said.

"I feel like I owe you something." I said.

"Like...?" Sarah said.

"Name it and I'll tell you if I can." I said.

"Your fighting with us right?" Fate asked.

"This upcoming battle yes." I replied.

"Protect Cole out there, I don't want something worse happening then what happened last time." Fate said.

"You have my word." I said. "And you?" I asked turning to Sarah.

"Same as Fate's I guess, since I really don't need anything." Sarah said.

"I just hope I can keep that word." I thought to myself.

"So what do you all do up her?" I asked.

"Just hang out." Sarah said as Cole walked in.

"I think this is my que to leave." I said.

"I think I'll go to sleep now." I said to Michael.

_________________________________________________________

The Next Day

_________________________________________________________

"So you ready to go?" I asked Cole over the com.

"Sure." Cole said.

"Lets do this then." I said as I launched.

"Try not to get shot down this time." I joked.

"...Just watch yourself" Cole said. "Ignore what I do."

"That will be hard considering we're supposed to be working together." I said.

"Daichi's tactics resulted in failure last battle, I play my part how I wish." Cole said.

"You failed last time because you were outnumbered." I said bluntly.

"I know, if only my other self could be triggered through sheer will power.." Cole said.

"Is he talking about the Super Solider? Could it have something to do with the 'white eyes' they were talking about the first time I fought Kyle? Wait other
self?" I wondered to myself.

"Other self?" I asked.

"You won't understand.." Cole said.

"....Try me." I said.

"I've tried many times before.." Cole said.

"Well-" I started.

"Hate to interrupt, but we've got company." Aaron said over the com as a swarm of maybe 100 mechs appeared.

"They can't seriously be going to stay and fight." I thought to myself.

"Lets go!!!" I yelled.

I was immeditly intercepted by 2 Gundams.

"We've got him." One of them said.

"You might want to reconsider." I said.

I said as I shot one of their guns and blew it up. 3 of my funnels blowing up the main camera of one and both it's arms as I dashed to the other one and
stabbed it in the cockpit. I passed the disabled mech while saying "It would be best if you left the battlefield."

Then 4 more got in my way. "I don't have time for this." I thought to myself. As I shot 3 of my funnels at 3 and destroyed them and threw my sword at one
impaling it then boosting towards towards the mech and pulling the sword the rest of the way through.

I looked over to see Cole slicing mech in half.

"There is a ship departing from one of the hangers. Engage and destroy it." Peters said.

We were on our way to the ship when 15 mechs stepped in our way.

"I can take these guys." I said as I shot one of them in the cockpit. "Can I really defeat them all?" I thought.

"You just signed your death warrant." one of them said as they clashed with me. I shot him at point blank range while one of my funnels were destroyed.
I redocked the rest.

I started warming up my EMP field as I was shot in the back.

"What? His armour can withstand more then one attack?" he said as one of my funnels blew his Gundam up then got shot down.

I dodged another beam shot then shot the Mobile Suit that attacked me.

"11 left. 75% done." I thought to myself.

As I continued dodging criss-crossing fire. "I don't even have time to shoot back." I thought to myself. "It's over!!!!" I yelled as I activated my EMP
field disabling their mechs. It then destroyed them all one by one making sure they got out first.

"Cole I got those two." I said shooting between Brian, Britney and Cole with 2 of my funnels.

"...Whatever." Cole said.

"You?" Brian asked.

"Weren't we just fighting together?" Britney asked.

"On the Battlefield all ties are temporary." I said.

"Talk about cold shoulder." Brian said.

"I don't think I could ever kill you guys though." I thought to myself.

With that the battle started. I rolled to the side as Brian tired to shot me in arm, but I dodged to the left. I spotted the shield that had been knocked
off Brian. I went to retrieve it and got shot in the back as I reached it.

"Anymore hits and I'll...." I thought "No. I won't get hit again."

I blocked one of the shoots the fired at me while sending 4 funnels out. 1 of them had regenerated. I was still missing one though. I fired it and nicked
Britney's beam rifle causing it to explode as she threw it away and pulled out a beam saber.

"How can you still fight for them?" I said over the com.

"What do you mean? Your the tratior." Brian said as Britney attempted to go hand to hand with me. I blocked the saber then sliced off her other arm. I also
knocked out her boosters as well. She destroyed my shield in the exchange though.

"Brian...Britne-!" Said Steven over the com. Then there was an explosion in the distance.

"You....I'll make you pay." Brian said, his implant musted have activated because he became more agressive in his attacks. He came at me with a sword in
one hand and a beam rifle in the other.

"Whats he planning?" I thought as one of his funnels destroyed my leg. I shot it afterwards. Brian threw the rifle at me and when it was ready to hit he
Threw his sword to. It was to late to dodge. The gun's explosion blew off one of my arms and my funnels destroyed his boosters, but his funnels destroyed
my boosters as well.

"Starcaster. I may need a pick-up later. For now I'm going into hand-to-hand combat." I said.

"Understood Ben. Keep us posted if possible." Sarah said.

I grabbed my knife, my gun, a copy of the annoucement and a player to play it on. From here it was going to be close-quaters combat. I had to win.

"I won't break my promise." I thought to myself.

I grabbed my knife, my gun, a copy of the annoucement and a player to play it on. From here it was going to be close-quaters combat. I had to win.

"I won't break my promise." I thought to myself.

I took a few moments to get the layout of the base and headed in.

"They have the advantage here. Blue prints only help so much." I thought to myself.

I grabbed my com and switched it to the frequency I knew they would be on.

"Watch out. Hes down here with us." Brian said.

"Gotcha." Britney said.

"Also. If at all possible take him alive." Brian added.

"I'll try to do the same. So why don't both of you do us all a favor and give up." I said.

"You know we can't do that, but you can." Brian said.

"I can't. I have to keep my promise." I said.

"Promise?" Brian asked.

"I promised Amber that the war would end and nothing like what happened to us would ever happen again. I can't do that very well in a cell, now can I?" I
asked trying to make a joke.

"Not really. Seems we're at a stale-mate then." Britney said.

"Seems so." I said.

Silence passed as I was hiding behind a corner.

"So why are you fighting for the Celestial Angel?" the question came from the com as I jumped. I turned out to be Brian.

"It's a mission. I was hired by Celestial Angel to attack this base." I said.

"And you? How can you still defend the Coalition after what it did?" I asked.

"What are you talking about?" Brian asked.

"We fight to end the war." Brintey said.

"You really don't know?" I asked.

"Know what?" Brian asked.

"Hes just messing with us." Britney replied.

"This afternoon before we attacked. Your 'leader' made an ultimatium. Leave your army or die. He did so by killing prisoners, but you knew all this already
didn't you?" I asked.

"What? Thats not-" Brian started.

"Lies!!!!! All of it. It's meant to distract us." Britney said as I took cover behind a wall.

"Why don't you believe me?" I asked.

"You always lie. You left us after our first mission. Your fighting against us now. What more proof do you want?" Britney said on the verge of tears it
sounded.

"....I'm sorry. I couldn't stay the Coalition was corrupt. You must see that by now." I said.

"I'm certain the government would have worked out their problems. If you had stayed Jon and Steven would still be alive and the world would know peace.
Children wouldn't have to live in fear. Parents could be at ease about their children." Britney said crying.

This was the first time I truely regreted leaving the Coalition.

"I....I don't..." I said. I was at a lose for words.

"Britney I'm sorry. Please don't cry." Brian said. "We have to catch him and make him see the truth." Brian said.

"The same to you." I said.

I proceed through the area without seeing anyone.

"I wondered what happened here." I thought to myself. "Where is everyone?"

"This used to be a weapons testing facility." Brian said as if answering my thoughts.

"What happened?" I asked.

"It was shut down because of all the health voilations it had."

"They don't even care about their own people?" I said stunned.

"No. They were all prisoners." Brian said.

"What happened to the prisoners?" I asked already knowing the answer.

"They said they were taken to labor camps." Brian said.

I said nothing. "They were taken and killed then cremated. They had handled sensitive information. They couldn't leave them alive. Why
can't you see that?" I thought to myself.

There was silence as I walked through the facility. I saw something move. I waited behind a corner. The footsteps came closer and closer.

I aimed my gun that I prayed I wouldn't have to use. Fortunatly she walked the other way.

"Freeze." I said.

She stopped where she was.

"Put your gun down slowly." I said adjusting my aim. She complied.

"Without turning around kick it backwards." I instructed her.

She did so.

"Now. Turn around. I want you to watch this video. You have the potential to be more then the Coalition's pawn." I said slowly putting down the video while
keeping aim on her.

_______________________________________________________

After the video

_______________________________________________________

"Lies. All of it is a lie." Britney said trying to come at me.

I shifted so I shot her leg instead of her head. "That could have been your life." I said.

"All that means is that theres a still a part of you that cares." Britney said.

"And the video. How do you explain that?" I asked.

"It's obvious it was faked by another force them to want the Coalition overthrown." Britney said.

"Are you really that blind?" I asked.

"I'm not blind you just believe the lies others spread." Brintey replied.

"Why can't you-" I stopped as I heard footsteps.

I left her where she was. I put a finger on my lips. She nodded.

"Is that you Britney?" Brian asked.

I nodded.

"Yes it's me." Britney said.

"Tell him to drop the gun." I said.

"Brain....Bens here." Britney said instead.

I grabbed her and pulled her around the corner.

"Unless you want her to die put the gun down and kick it around the corner." I said.

"You wouldn't kill her." he said moving foward, but still not around the corner.

I shot the gun, but not at her. Brian rounded the corner running not aiming his gun.

"Drop it." I said pushing Brintey away from me.

He lowered the gun and put it on the ground.

"Now kick it to me." I said as he kicked it to me. I picked it up and disarmed the gun and tossed it away. I did the same to Britney's.

"Now that I've got you in one place. Will you listen to what I have to say?" I asked.

They looked at each other.

"Do we have an option?" Brian asked in response.

"Not really." I replied.

"Well then-" Brian started.

Just then the earth started shaking due to the explosions going on. Britney used that time to knock the gun out of my hand.

"It really is hand to hand then." I thought to myself as she tried to knock me off my balance by trying to knock my feet out from under me since she was
already close. I dodged backwards and hit her in the chest knocking her out.

I pulled my knife out. Brian already had his unsheathed.

"Want to call it quits now?" I asked as I located where my pistol was. It was behind him.

"Not a chance." Brian said as he charged foward. Brian had always been better at hand to hand then me.

He charged at me trying to slice at me. I dodged to the side trying to get behind him. He appeared in front of me slicing at me. I blocked then dodged
backwards.

"Seems you haven't lost your touch." I said.

"Seems you've gotten better." Brian said.

"Seems so. Ready to call it quits." I said checking on Britney. She was still out cold. After that I charged forward and tried to slice him. He dodged
backwards and grabbed my gun. I knew I had lost then.

He came up with my gun now aimed at me. I dropped my knife and asked "What now?"

"Now we go back to the Gundam's a radio to base for a pick up." Brian said.

"What about her?" I said looking at Britney.

"I don't think shes going anywhere." Brain said.

"I could always carry her." I said.

"I don't think-" Brian started.

"What am I going to do? I don't have my gun or knife anymore. And we already clarified I can't kill her. So wheres the harm?" I asked.

He thought about it for a few minutes. "I guess if you want to." Brian said.

"I would rather not leave her here." I said.

"Then by all means." Brian said as I picked her up.

"Which way?" I asked slightly embarrassed.

Brian chuckled.

"Right. I'll guide you as we go." I said.

We made it outside eventually.

"Base. We need to be picked up. Me and Britney were shot down." Brian said. "We can wait."

"They say we need to wait a few minutes to be picked up." Brian said.

"Well. Why we wait. Remember that video I told you about eariler?" I asked.

"Not really." he addmitted.

"The one about your president and the prisoners." I said.

"Now I do." Brian said.

"Mind if I show you it?" I asked.

".....No quick movements." Brian said.

I slowly took out the video, sat it on the ground and started it.

"This....This can't be...Why would he do something like this?" Brian asked.

"Britney said it was a trick. Do you think the same thing?" I asked.

"It has to be a trick." Brian said.

"And if it's not?" I asked.

He thought about it for a few minutes. "Go." Brian said as he lowered the gun. "I won't lose anymore friends today."

"Thank you." I said.

As I got back to my Gundam I waited a few minutes then I hailed the StarCaster.

"How much longer on that pick up?" I asked.

"Now actually." Sarah said over the com.

"I might have another question when I get aboard." I said.

Spoiler: Chapter 12 - Retaliation

Chapter 12- Retaliation

A.D. - Anno Domini Year 2414

The Celestial War started 2402 had not yet been decided. The Coalition Army and the Global Unification Army
Organization had not settled their differences. After the Coalition turned corrupt Heavy Fighting began to pop
up all over the world, killing off any civilaians that were in these battles. In the Midst of all this, small
terrorist organizations formed in hopes of one day rising up, claiming random civilans for "Super soldier projects.
As time goes on the war seems to be worsening but never ending.

"The operation was a success." Peters said as I walked onto the bridge.

"I'm glad." I lied remembering Steven dieing.

"Your free to go." Peters said.

"About that....My Gundam is currently unable to stand so it's impossible to launch." I said.

"Thats a problem." Peters said.

"Can I stay until I fix it and say I owe Celestial Angel one?" I asked.

"That seems reasonable, but the same conditons still apply." Peters said.

"Who are the escorts?" I asked.

"They aren't nessecary." Peters said.

"Just like that?" I asked.

"There are cameras everywhere to watch you. You'll be fine." Peters said.

Hanger

________________________________________________

"Do you need help with your Gundam?" a strange woman asked.

"And you are?" I asked.

"Hina." she replied.

"Possibly. What do you know about my Gundam?" I asked.

"It has the same armour as Kyle's." Hina said.

".....Very well. I just need to repair a leg then I'm off." I said.

She nodded.

We worked on the Gundam for a while in slience.

"So how did you end up here?" I asked.

"I chose to come here" Hina said.

"Why?" I asked curious.

"Because I want to help people. Thats what Celestial Angel is doing." Hina replied.

I didn't answer. "Thats what they're trying to do." I thought to myself.

"I'm going to take a break." I said as I locked up my Gundam. "You should to." I said to Hina.

I walked to the control tower.

I looked around Cole was gone. "We're one short." I said surprising Sarah.

"I know, I just let him out of his cage for a bit." Sarah says.

"Cage?" I ask.

"Penitentiary actually." Fate said.

"I doubt it could be conforable for him considering his past. Could it be becaue he left when he wasn't supposed to?" I thought to myself.

"What for?" I ask.

"He told off the captain in the middle of the fight" Sarah said laughing.

I chuckled. "That would do it." I said.

"Any plans while hes in jail?" I asked.

"Not at the moment." Fate said.

"I guess it can't be helped. I'll just have to make time to shop for Valetine's Day later." I said more to myself then anyone esle. "Mind if I stay for a
bit?" I asked.

"Sure, just don't know what you would want to do." Sarah said.

"Thats a good point Sarah. Before I forget. Did I do well enough for you? The promise about Cole." I asked Fate.

"Well since he came back fine I suppose so." Fate said with a smile on her face.

"I bet I know who your getting a present for on Valentine's Day." I said as a joke.

"Who?" she asked then blushed.

I laughed. "Cole. Am I right?" I said.

"The captain wants to see me." Fate said as she walked out.

"I'm going to leave to." Sarah said.

"One quick question. Why did you join Celestial Angel. To end the war yes, but why not the Coalition or the GUA?" I asked.

"Look around at the other 2, everyone knows they are corrupt and mean nothing when it comes to sloving this war, not one of them can do anything. However,
Celestial Angel is the only one with the slight chance, although..their base idea is flawed, but at least im trying" Then she sighs after saying that
taking off after her sister.

"The same reason I quit the Coalition then." I said quietly after she left.

I stayed in the tower and thought about a lot of different things for a while. I eventually took my leave. I was walking through the halls and I ran into
someone.

"Excuse me." he said.

"I'm sorry. Whats your name?" I asked.

"Kalleb." he replied.

"You a pilot here?" I asked.

"Yeah" Kalleb said.

"You new? I haven't seen you before." I asked.

"No. I'm just not top rank." Kalleb said.

"Oh. Just keep working on it." I said as I walked away.

As I got back to the hanger I saw Hina still working on my Gundam. "You don't have to work so hard. Your making me look bad." I said joking.

"Sorry. I just wanted to get done." Hina said. She had already taken the leg off.

"You sure do work quickly." I said.

"I take pride in my work." Hina said.

I started to help her work again.

"Shes strange. For some reason her background isn't in Celestial Angel's records." I thought to myself.

We worked late into the night.

"I'm going to bed." she said as we finally got done.

"I think I'll stay up a bit." I said.

"Oh?" She asked.

"I have a lot on my mind." I replied. I really had wanted to talk to Cole about his "other self", but when I went to his cell he was already asleep.

"I wonder what it was like being with the terrorists." I thought to myself. "This can't be fun for you."

"Might as well head to bed." I said outloud.

_____________________________________________________

The Next Day

_____________________________________________________

As the next day started I went to visit Cole, but he had already been released.

I also visited the control tower, but there was no one there either.

"Odd. Someone should have been here." I thought to myself.

I repaired my Gundam then I headed to bed since everyone was already gone.

"What a wasted of a day." I thought to myself as I headed back to my room.

_____________________________________________________

The Next Day

_____________________________________________________

I ran into Cole in the hallway.

"I know this is odd..but mind if I ask you for a favor?" he said.

"Depends on what the favor is." I replied.

"This isn't like him." I thought to myself.

"Just something Im wanting to do for The Captain..sort of as payback for what 'he' said" Cole replied.

"The other you?" I asked half joking.

"Yeah sure, just can you do it?" Cole asked.

"What would I get from this?" I asked.

"I...don't know, I'll find something.." Cole said.

"Spikes or your history." I said.

"..Spikes" Cole said.

"Darn. I was hoping he would choose the other one." I thought to myself.

"I'll get on it." I said.

"...Thanks, when do you want to see the spikes?" Cole asked.

"When I get you the information, not until then." I said.

"Alright, thanks.." Cole said.

I walked to my Gundam and contacted Amber.

"Hey." I said.

"Where were you? I thought you had gone and died on me!!!!" Amber said half joking.

"Not yet." I said. "Listen. I need you to do some research on Peter Tesla's wife. Where she currently is."

"....Why?" She asked.

"It's a long story. I'll tell you when I get back." I said.

"Okay...." Amber said. "Be careful." She whispered.

"I will." I said smiling.

"Wheres Matthew?" I thought to myself. "Theres no way a person like him would give up after one try."

So I found myself walking to the Control Tower to see if Matthew had been seen recently.

"Have either of you seen Matthew lately?" I asked walking in.

"No, why?" asked Sarah and Fate at the same time.

"Odd. I wouldn't have pegged him for the type to give up." I said.

"He never gave up." Cole said.

"Meaning?" I asked.

"He did his job.Even his job had mistakes." Cole said.

"....Wait. Past tense?.....Did something happen?" I asked.

""Things always happen. Im not sure if he likes it though." Cole said.

"Your not going to tell are you?" I asked.

"I am." Cole said.

"Why are you being confusing?" Sarah asked.

"Why are you?" I restated the question

"Maybe your not understanding." Cole said.

"Whats he getting at?" I thought to myself.

"If you would stop beating around the bush." I said.

"Think outside the box." Cole said.

"I don't particuarly like guessing games." I said.

"No one said you had to guess" Cole said as he got up and left.

"....Anyone catch that?" I asked Fate and Sarah.

"Not really.." they both said.

"Maybe he was..." I said outloud. "Theres no way." I finished.

"Did he mean hes dead?" I thought to myself. "Theres no way thats what he meant."

"I think I'm going to go walk around. See ya." I said as I walked off.

I headed back to my room, but as I reached it the alarms started going off.

I ran back the way I had just came.

"Whats going on?" I asked as I entered the control tower.

"Something bad I think" Sarah said.

"Thanks Sherlock Homes." I said joking.

"When did I become 'Sherlock'?" Sarah asked.

I laughed while Fate chuckled.

"Forget it." I said. "Do you know anything Fate?" I asked.

She says "No, maybe Cole does?" Fate answered.

"Do you know where he is?" I asked.

"He just up and left so not really." Fate admitted.

"All hands prepare for battle. All hands prepare for battel." The com blared.

"Thats convinent." I said.

"No kidding Sherlock." Fate said.

I laughed.

Sarah just looked at us confused.

"Is it possible to keep an eye on the battle from here?" I asked.

"Yeah, Area E14" Fate says. "That way."

"Thanks." I said heading that way.

"Hes still there? Doesn't he know about the battle?" I thought to myself.

The battle started with Celestial Angel getting away from the ship. As the battle progressed it became apparent they were losing more mechs then they were
killing.

"This is bad." I thought to myself. I wanted a few minutes until it became apparent the tide wasn't going to turn.

"I'm going." I said to Fate and Sarah.

"Where are you going?" Sarah asked.

"Their losing. I'm going to help them." I said as I walked out.

As time goes on the war seems to be worsening but never ending.

"Am I cleared to launch?" I asked.

"You are clear." Sarah said.

"Objectives?" I asked.

"Don't let us die" Sarah said.

".....Thats it?" I asked slightly shocked by her choice of words.

"Well duh. "Were all going to die unless everyone plays their part." Sarah said.

"Their...Part?" I thought to myself "Where do I fit into this war?"

"Protect the StarCaster....And Cole." Fate said.

"Same as always." I said quietly. "Hows the retreat coming?" I asked.

"Going good, Cole is fighting someone." Sarah said.

"Who?" Fate asked.

"I don't know." Sarah said.

"How long until the StarCaster is out of here?" I asked preparing all systems to launch.

"Around 20 minutes." Sarah said.

"....20 minutes? In these conditions?" I said queitly. "You two. Listen on the com very closely. I might need to get Kyle and Cole to stop me should I-"
I started. "It won't come from me. Just be ready. Can you remember that?" I asked.

"Umm ok?" Sarah said confused.

"It's a long story. Ask me later some time and I may tell you, but promise me both of you." I said.

"...Promise" Sarah said.

"Promise" Fate said.

"Thank you. I don't think I could take it if-" I shook my head. "I've really got to stop talking to you all." I said laughing as I launched.

I was immediately intercepted my 5 mechs.

I charged the first one and destroyed it with one of my plam sabers. I destroyed the another with one of my funnels. I destroyed another way by throwing my
double-bladed at one destroying it and coming back because of a boomerang effect. The last two were destroyed by beam shoots.

"Remember me?" The question came over the com.

"......Not really." I said.

"Thats sad. It's Kalleb." he said.

"Oh yeah. Now I do." I said.

"It's a little late now." Kalleb said.

"Sorry. Shouldn't you be helping with the battle?" I said as I shot down a stray mech that was straying to close to the StarCaster.

"I was waiting for you to join the party." Kalleb joked.

"How nice of you." I said flatly.

We headed into the battle destorying them as they came at us.

"Look over there. It's Kyle." Kalleb said.

"Hes fighting....20?" I asked. "We better help him." I said as I destroyed 4 with my funnels and 1 with my beam rifle.

"What?" Kyle asked surprised as he destroyed a Mobile Suit.

"Don't be so surprised we are on the same side after all." I said.

"I don't want your help." Kyle said as we both destoryed another Mobile Suit.

"Good to see your fighting again." I said as I destroyed yet another one.

Kalleb shot two more down.

"And you are?" Kyle demanded.

"Kalleb. I kinda work with you." he said as I destroyed a Mobile Suit by slicing it in half.

"Never meet you before." Kyle said as he destroyed another Mobile Suit.

"....Thats fine. You have now." Kalleb said as he destroyed a Mobile Suit.

"Well do me a favor and stop taking my kills." Kyle said.

"I think thats our cue to leave Kalleb." I said

After a while I asked "Whats your assesment of the battle?" I asked while defeating two more mechs.

"I think we're losing." Kalleb said.

"Thats what I thought." I said as I griminaced.

"I'm going to try something, but I need you to do me a favor." I said.

"What?" Kalleb asked.

"I may go a bit crazy and attack everything. If that happens. Contact Fate and Sarah tell them Ben said it's time to keep their promise." I said.

"O......kay?" Kalleb said.

"Promise me." I demanded.

"I promise. Care to tell me what this is about?" Kalleb asked.

"Not really." I said as I activated my implant those were the last words I would say to him.

_____________________________________________________________________________________________________

Ben then turned around and attacked the closest person to him which was Kalleb. Ben immediately sliced off his arm.

"What are you doing?" Kalleb asked.

"Get out of my sight. Your not worth my time." I said as I destroyed both a Coalition and Celestial Angel Mobile Suit.

"I can't let you hurt more people." Kalleb said as he tired to shoot Ben. Ben easily dodged the shot.

"Fate. Sarah. Ben has gone crazy and is attacking-" he started clashing with Ben. Then Ben used his other plam saber to kill him and slience the com.

"Hello? Kyle and Cole we need you to take down Ben." Sarah said, but Ben didn't care.

"I can do that." Kyle responded as Ben shot down another Celestial Angel Mobile Suit.

Ben started destryoing everyone he met on the Battlefield.

"I always knew you would betray us." Kyle said.

"Shut up!!!" Ben yelled. "Your parents were a joke. Abusing you every day. You had it so hard didn't you?" he yelled.

"Why you!!!!!" Kyle yelled.

Ben laughed as they clashed.

"I'll kill you this time!!!!!" Kyle yelled as they dashed away.

"Try if you like." Ben said.

Kyle tired to shoot him as Ben dodged and tired to hit him with a funnel. Kyle dodged as well. Ben went in and clashed with one of his plam saber went to
slash with the other but Kyle pulled out his other sword.

"Your kinda getting on my nerves." Ben said.

"At least we agree on one thing." Kyle said.

As they went to clash again they were interrupted by a beam shot.

"Mind if we crash the party?" Brian asked.

______________________________________________________________________________________________________

"Mind if we crash the party?" Brian asked.

"Fate. Sarah. Thank you." I said.

"Why?" Sarah asked.

"For calling it in." I said.

"It is...?" Sarah asked.

"You called Kyle to stop me. Didn't you?" I asked.

"Yeah, why?" Sarah asked.

"Like I said. Later." I replied.

"Ok.." Fate and Sarah said as Kyle came at me and activated his wings I barely dodged to the right in time.

"How long on the retreat still?" I asked.

"Should be going underway soon" Fate said as I tired to shoot Kyle, but he destroyed the funnel instead.

"Define soon. This isn't exactly easy." I said.

"2 minutes..?" Fate asked.

"Long story short. Kyle's mad at me." I said as Britney tired to attack me with one of her beam rifles as I dodged to the side.

"He stays mad at everyone" Sarah said.

"Hes trying to kill me." I said.

"he always try's to kill everyone, look at Cole and him" Sarah said.

I didn't reply. I had bigger things to worry about. I shoot at Brian, but he dodged then shoot at Kyle, who dodged flawlessly. Kyle shoot at Britney who
was nicked by the shot.

I attmepted another attack on Brian, but he dodged again. Then I got shoot in the back by Britney.

"This isn't working." I said. I faked a clash with Brian but instead sliced off one of Britney's arms then boosted away. Just then the retreat flares were
fired.

"All Mobile Suits return to the StarCaster." the com blared.

"Finally." I thought to myself. "It's time for me to take my leave as well." I thought as I started to leave the battlefield.

Britney pursued me.

"What are you doing? Can't you see that the battles over?" I asked.

"Your not getting away this time." Britney said.

"Stop it. This fight is over." I said turning around.

"No. I'll won't let you kill anymore people." Britney said as she attempted to shoot me.

"Stop it. Your to damaged to beat me at this point even with your implant." I said as I dodged. I shoot back.

"Why do you want to fight me?" I asked.

"Because...Because of you their all dead!!!!" Britney screamed as she shoot at me.

"What will killing me do?" I asked.

"Just fight!!!!" she yelled as she shot me.

I used a funnel to destroy her beam rifle.

"I can still win." she said as she launched her funnels. I destroyed two as the launched. She pulled out her beam sword and clashed with me.

She tired to attack me with a funnel from the side it hit my Gundam then I used one of my funnels to destroy it.

"Give it up." I said. "Brian is waiting for you."

"That doesn't matter. What matters that I defeat you." she said as we boosted away from each other.

As we clashed again I used one of my funnels to destroy her leg.

"You can't keep at this." I said. "Turn back."

"Not until I defeat you." she said as she charged forward again.

This time I destroyed her other leg.

"It's over. Theres no sense in continueing this fight." I said as I saw a funnel getting ready to attack in my rear camera. I dodged to the right just in
time for it to hit Britney's Gundam in the cockpit.

"I guess....this is how it...." Britney said.

"Why?" I asked "Why? Why? Why?" I screamed.

"There was no reason to..." I started. Then I started crying.

"Heading back to the StarCaster." I said still crying.

"Roger." Sarah said.

"I promise Britney. I will end this war." I thought to myself.

Chapter 14- Dissettling Reunion

A.D. - Anno Domini Year 2414

The Celestial War started 2402 had not yet been decided. The Coalition Army and the Global Unification Army

terrorist organizations formed in hopes of one day rising up, claiming random civilans for "Super soldier projects.
As time goes on the war seems to be worsening but never ending.

"I think this evens up the score." I said to Peters after I had stopped crying and made myself presentable.

"I believe so. Be gone in an hour." Peters said.

"I can do that." I said.

The first place I wanted to go was the control tower. I owed them some answers.

"Hey." I said walking in. "Wheres Cole?" I asked surprised he wasn't present.

"He sent a message for no body to talk to him, I guess he just needs his space." Fate said.

"Or could it be something else?" I thought to myself.

"Odd. I'm sorry about how weird I acted a little while ago." I said.

"For you I think it's normal" Sarah said. I laughed.

"Well you won't have to worry much longer. I'm leaving in an hour." I said.

"What for?" Fate asked.

"My mission here has been done for 2 days. It's about time I took my leave. Or would you perfer I stay?" I asked jokingly.

"Nah you can go" Sarah answered.

"I don't care." Fate answered.

I started to go but lingered at the door. "....Do you want an explantion for what happened a while back? Why I wanted the promise?" I asked.

"You don't have to unless you want to" Sarah said.

"And you Fate?" I asked.

"Up to you." Fate said.

I struggled a moment between the feeling I owed them an explantion and the feelings of the need for secrecy.

"....You won't tell anyone?" I asked. "That includes Cole."

"...." Fate and Sarah both said.

"Yes or no." I said.

"If it's that private why tell us?" Sarah asked.

"I feel like I owe you an explanation." I said.

"o...k" Sarah said.

"ok.." Fate said.

"Thank you." I said.

"It was a long time ago. I was 7 at the time." I started.

"What happened to your parents?" Sarah asked.

"My parents gave me up. They wanted to end the war that much." I lied. "Anyway. When I got into the Coalition. They gave me an implant. It's been long out
of production for two reasons. 1: It's to expensive. 2: The reason I had you make the promise. When you activate it. You can black out. Then it's like a
whole different person takes over. They attack everything except their closest friends. I have one of those implants." I said.

"So all you have to do is use an EMP field?" Fate asked.

"You would think so, but they they gave it an EMP field disrupter." I lied.

"That's smart." Sarah said

"Yeah." I said.

"I'm off to see Cole before I launch." I said.

"But he said he didn't want to be disturbed." Fate said.

"Good thing I'm not crew then." I said smiling as I walked out.

I went to Cole's room and knocked on the door.

I don't get a reply so I used the codes to the door to unlock it.

"How did you get in here?" Cole asked.

"Key code." I replied.

"You are a stalker." Cole said.

"Better to be prepared then be caught off gaurd." I said.

"Knowing keycodes prepares you for what?" Cole asked.

"In case I ever need to go hand to hand on a mission to capture this ship." I said.

"Or try to." Cole said.

"Either way. I answered your question now answer mine. Why are you down here alone?" I asked.

"Ever heard of 'Peace'?" Cole asked.

"I've heard of it, but lately it eludes me." I said with a sad expression.

"Then leave and you'll get some." Cole said.

"Are you-" I started the I saw the white eyes. "Is this the 'other' you?" I asked wondering to myself.

"Can't you tell?" Cole asked.

"I'll take that as a yes." I said. "Why are you so angry?"

"Why not?" Cole said bluntly.

"Because your not Kyle. Your not the Incredible Hulk." I said my patience starting to thin out.

"Nor am I Cole, and everyone annoys me." Cole said.

"'Not Cole?'" I asked confused. "Why does everyone annoy you?"

"Look at what your doing and you have your answer." Cole said.

"You avoided my first question." I said.

"Have common sense?" Cole said.

"Define what makes you two different." I said.

"Not in the mood for telling story's." Cole said.

"Humor me." I said my patience starting to give out again

"He's a wimp, i'm not, get out." Cole said.

"One last question. Do you have the same loyalties as the other Cole?" I asked.

"Define loyalties." Cole said.

"Like people, governments, morals, etc." I said.

"People annoy me just like you, Goverments are all corrupt, and Morals? Let's
just not go there." Said Cole smiling.

"Fair enough, but since you didn't answer my entire question one more will ensue." I said as Cole got more impatient. "Do you ever feel sadness?"

"No, however I will feel sad for you if you don't leave soon." Cole said.

"Your a jerk." I said as I walked out.

"I was getting ready to go to my Gundam when I ran into Kyle.

"...Hello." I said.

He just glares at me and walks off.

"That was weird." I thought to myself.

On the way to my Gundam I ran into a soldier.

"Whats all the running for?" I asked.

"Haven't you heard? No probably not if your asking." The soldier started. I was getting impatient.

"Get to the point please." I said adding an edge to my voice the soldier jumped.

"Cole has been arrested for murder." Ben said.

"Where is he?" I asked.

"In the penetintrary." the soldier replied.

"Take me there?" I asked.

"Sure." the soldier said.

"Thank you." I said as we arrived at the penetintrary.

"So what do I call you?" I asked as I walked in.

"Call me by his name." Cole said.

"I can do that." I said.

"Want to explain why your here?" I asked.

"Ask someone else." Cole said.

"I already have. Thats why I'm here. Now please tell me from your perpective." I said.

"If you have asked someone else, then you know" Cole said.

"Besides, if your that knowledge hungry wait untill Cole is here." Cole added.

"And when will that be?" I asked.

"Whenever." Cole replied.

"....I don't have that kind of time. Besides do you want to die?" I asked.

"They won't kill me." Cole said.

""That is the penlty for treason. Which your being charged with." I said getting impatient.

"Penatly's? Cute." Cole said smiling.

"Whats this getting at?" I thought to myself. "Does he really want to die or does he have a way out of here."

I sighed. "Is there a way I can talk to the regular Cole?" I asked.

"Tommorow." Cole said.

"Why not now?" I asked.

"Ask him tommorow." Cole said.

"I won't be here tomorrow." I said.

"That's your own flaw." Cole said.

"Well then. I guess since you want to die. I'll take my leave. Their questioners won't be as nice as me." I said as I walked out.

"Perfect" Cole said in a happy voice.

"Your....something." I said to quietly for anyone else to hear.

"Thats so...A complete disrespect like that....Interesting. I wonder what he has planned." I thought to myself.

There were two things I had to do.

The first was get a copy of the security tapes which I did on the way to the second.

The second was to inform Fate.

"Fate. You hear about Cole yet?" I asked.

"No, what happened?" Fate asked concerened.

"Well two things. One he is 'different'...More of a jerk. Second hes been charged with murder." I said.

"Murder!?"Fate asked surprised."Wait...Different? Jerk?" Fate said confused.

"Matthew. I assume hes told you about his 'white eyes' mode." I said.

"He has...but what? Matthew? What did he get him in trouble?" Fate asked.

"Apparently theres another Cole if that makes sense. This one doesn't care about anyone. Matthew is dead. The real Cole killed him. I'm almost
postive." I said.

"...What?" Fate asked.

"For someone so bright your really slow." I said. "It's like with my implant. It's him, but not really. Hes been charged with murder. He won't be cooperative
with your investigators. I wanted you to make sure he didn't do anything to make his situation worse." I said.

"..I'll check into this myself." Fate said.

"Be ready." I said.

"ok...what?" Fate asked confused.

"Cole. He try to drive you off by being evil, but if hes only with them....It could end much worse." I said. "Also I will be working on solving this, but
he wasn't particually forthcoming." I said.

"Get anything from what he said?" Fate asked.

I shook my head. "He kept saying 'come back tomorrow'" I said.

"I'll go there now I guess to see what's going on...this is all really to much to take in" Fate said.

I laughed. "Hope for the best prepare for the worst." I said.

"Already have that in mind.." Fate said.

"I was talking about the overwhelming part." I said.

"..Yeah, anyways im going to talk to him, which cell is he in?" Fate asked.

"Hes across from the captain's room. I'll be calling you soon." I said.

"Need my number?" Fate asked.

"It makes it easier." I said.

After she gave me her number I said, "He won't be friendly. Remember that."

"I understand." Fate said as she left. When she left I waited a few minutes. "Good luck." I whispered. I went to the hanger and started it up.

"Taking off." I said not waiting for a response.

"Heading home." I said over the com.

"About time." Amber said.

"Gosh. You were gone so long I thought I was going to have to take over." Johnathan said.

"I'm going to make a few stops first." I said.

"Oh? Where to?" Amber asked.

"Two different places." I replied.

"Aww. Come on tell us." Johnathan joked.

"Later." I said.

"Can we get phones?" Amber asked.

"Why?" I asked.

"So we can keep in touch with more people better." Amber said.

"I'll add that to my list." I said.

I left my Gundam at the last place I was going to visit and locked it up.

I went to the market. "Now what would Amber like for Valentine's Day?" I asked myself.

"Ah. Thats perfect I'll get her that." I said getting her a box of choclates and flowers.

"It's chessy, but it will serve my purposes." I thought to myself.

"I think I'll get Amber a red phone, me a blue phone, and Johnathan a black phone." I thought to myself.

After getting all of this I retrned to my Gundam.

"This war...How long will it go on?" I thought to myself as I headed back.

"Welcome back." Amber greeted me as I returned.

"I brought presents." I said.

"Oh. What'd you get?" Amber asked.

"Phones." I replied. "A red phone for you Amber since it's your favorite color." I said.

"Awww. Thanks." she replied.

"What about me?" Johnathan asked.

"I got you a black phone. Sense your always so dreary." I joked.

"Yeah. Thanks. I'm going to go cut myself now." Johnathan joked back.

"What about you?" Amber asked.

"Me. I got a blue phone." I said.

"Well its good that your doing all this because we've been demoted a rank." Johnathan said.

Amber scowled at him.

"Is that true?" I asked Amber.

"Well...You see...I was going to tell you once you were back and we had a chance to talk..." Amber started.

"Amber." I said.

"Yes. It's true." Amber said sighing.

"Great. Just great." I said plopping into a chair.

"If you were a better leader-" Johnathan said.

"You have a problem with me?" I asked.

"As a matter of fact I do." Johnathan said getting angry.

"You want to share it." I said getting up.

"Guys please don't do this." Amber begged.

I looked at her and said sorry with my eyes.

"This is so like you. Always backing out." Johnathan said.

"If you must." Amber sighed.

"Thank you." I thought to myself returning my attention to Johnathan.

"So what do you purpose?" I asked.

"A Gundam fight. If I win I take control of this group." Johnathan said.

"If you lose you put this behind you for good." I said.

"If we tie-" Johnathan started.

"We leave that to Amber." I interrupted.

"Well I..." She started. "If it's a tie things stay as they are, but you can press this issue later on." Amber said clearly uncomfortable with what was going
on.

"Time and place?" I asked.

"You know the place. Tomorrow at noon." Johnathan said.

"May the best man win." I said.

"I intend to." Johnathan said.

"Stuck up much?" I asked as he walked away.

"What was that about?" Amber asked.

"I don't know. It must of been on his mind a lot." I said. "What do you have on Peter's wife?" I asked wanting to change the subject.

"We've got to where she got devorced." Amber replied. "You still owe me an explantion for that."

"It's better if you see it." I said. "If it isn't to much to ask could you run this through. Get rid of all the loops. Get to the orginal source." I said.

"Why?" Amber asked.

"Well if this person dies. Theres no reason in following Peter's wife." I said. That was part of it. The other part was call it a whim if you will, but
things would get rather dull. I wanted a fair fight with him. I couldn't do that if he was dead.

We sat there for a few minutes. "You know Valentine's Day is coming up soon?" I asked.

"Oh. I had completely forgot about it." Amber said.

"You have anyone important in mind for that day?" I asked.

"Yes." Amber said and left it at that.

"....Are you going to tell me?" I asked moving over to the computer screen.

"No." Amber said sticking her tounge out at me.

"How unfortunate." I said pretending to be devesated my her lack of compassion.

She laughed.

"Shouldn't you be doing anything to prepare for the match tomorrow?" Amber asked.

"I will, but theres one thing. I need you to contact the ranking officer. We're going in for a test." I said.

"Think you can handle it." Amber asked.

"Depends on how badly Johnatahan damages my Gundam tomorrow." I said.

This test only gets you a Shogun ranking if you fail you have to pay a huge fine.

"Well. I think I'm going to get ready now." I said.

"By 'get ready' you mean go to sleep." Amber joked.

"Something like that." I said as I chuckled.

"It's time." Amber said as I opened my eyes.

"Can't keep Johnathan waiting forever." I said as I got out of bed. "Although I need a few minutes to wake up."

Amber laughed. "I'll get you coffee." Amber said.

"Yuck." I said making a face. "You know I hate coffee. Soda is just fine."

She laughed again. "I could stay here all day." I thought to myself.

"What?" Amber asked.

"Nothing." I said wiping the grin from my face.

________________________________________________

Hanger

________________________________________________

"Whatever happens out there I..." I started.

"What?" Amber said.

"Nothing." I said. "Why couldn't I finish that?" I thought to myself embaressed.

I finally arrived at the place whre we were going to fight.

"So. You came." Johnathan said.

"Of course. Not like there was much else to do." I said.

"Whatever happens-" I started.

"Yeah. Same to you." Johnathan said.

"We know each other so well." I said laughing.

"I guess we're starting early." He said as I rushed foward to meet his blades.

Then we dashed back as we launched our funnels. As we went in for another clash I threw my sword at him, but he dodged easily. I used that chance to attack
him from behind with one of my funnels. I barely hit his foot, but his funnel hit me full in the backside.

"I can help you." Came a thought from my mind.

"What the?" I said getting slightly distracted as he came in for another clash with swords. I ducked below him and shot and barely missed.

"I would've had that." I thought to myself.

"Let me fight him." It said again.

This time I stopped dead in my tracks.

"You okay?" Amber asked.

"I'm fine." I said as I started to move again.

"And you are?" I asked the voice refocusing on the battle.

"I'm the AI in your implant." It said as I dodged one of his funnels and blew it up.

"I'm going crazy." I thought to myself. As one of my funnels blew up.

"Time for a different tatic." I thought activating my cloack and docking my funnels.

"You can't hide forever!" Johnathan yelled clearly mad that he couldn't find me.

"I can't, but I can hide long enough to figure out whats wrong with me." I thought to myself.

"Theres nothing wrong with you." The AI's voice came.

"Thats really annoying." I said.

"Well so are you, but I'm still here." The reply came.

"You don't have a choice." I said.

There was a pause.

"You have a name?" I couldn't believe I was asking that.

"People will call me by your name, but you can call me Judas." Judas said.

"Great. I'm going crazy and I named my inmagenery friend Judas. I can't believe I'm having this conversation. On the other hand.....Betrayer. Interesting. Mind if I ask why." I said.

"You already know that." Judas said. "Now do you want to win. Or just stay here all day playing 100 questions?" Judas said.

I thought about it for a few minutes. "Will anyone get hurt?" I asked.

"I can't garuntee that." Judas said in a happy voice.

"Then I guess I do this my way." I said as I refocused my attention on the battlefield.

Johnathan had drifted to the left by about 50 feet from where he had been before my episode.

I drifted to the right a bit getting ready to fire my gun. He was aimed way ahead of where I was going to appear. With a smile I deactivated my cloack and
shot one of his arms off with my rifle.

"What?" Johanthan yelled.

As one of my funnels blew up one of his. Another almost hit one of his boosters but he used one of his funnels as a shield.

"Seems I have the upper hand now." I said as I went in for a clash. Then I used my free hand to cut his arm off. He used one of his funnels to end the clash.
I blew the funnel up afterwards as I shot him in the back.

"One more." I thought to myself.

His funnel destroyed one of mine then I destoryed it.

"Checkmate." I said as I shot at him time and time again. He was good, but with no weapons it was only a matter of time until he lost.

After his boosters were shot I told him "As agreed you have to keep your word and not bring this up again. If you don't like it the door is always open to leave."

"Tch." His reply came.

After we got back he left to his room in a hurry.

"Whats up with him?" Amber asked.

He also rewrote the first two chapters before giving up. In that one he changed Cole's name to Josh.

Meeting

“It turns out that an eerie type of chaos can lurk just behind a facade of order - and yet, deep inside the chaos lurks an even eerier type of order”

-Douglas Hostadter


A.D. - Anno Domini Year 2414

The Celestial War started 2402 had not yet been decided. The Coalition Army and the Global Unification Army Organization (GUA) have not settled their differences. After the Coalition turned corrupt heavy fighting began to pop up all over the world, killing off any civilians that were in these battles. In the midst of all this, small terrorist organizations formed in hopes of one day rising up, claiming random civilians for "Super soldier" projects. As time goes on the war seems to be worsening but never ending.

I looked around at the shabby town. Town wasn’t exactly the right word. It was almost like a small city. It had everything it needed, stores, restaurants; it had a good deal of people here which meant it was a good place for a meeting, which is why I was here. I was here to meet a representative of the GUA at 5:00. The reason I was meeting him was because he had a mission for my group. We were a mercenary group, by the name of Trouw. We had acquired the ranking of Shogun, the highest rank possible for a mercenary.

It's only 1:00. I thought to myself. I have four hours to kill. Great.

I strolled around town until I spotted Kyle and Josh. Or what I thought is them. I had previously received the files for everyone aboard the StarCaster, U.E.R.U.’s new warship. I had looked over the files of anyone of note.

Fate and Sarah were also there. They were standing in the middle of an open square. I was at the far edge of the square. There were a lot of small stores in the area. I stepped into the nearest shop which seemed to sell nothing but sunglasses. I made a show of going through them while keeping an eye on Kyle and Josh.

Josh had one light blue and one dark blue eye.

Heterochromia? His file didn’t mention anything about that.

He had messy medium length hair. Josh was wearing blue jeans and a red shirt.

Kyle had short brown hair and amber eyes. Kyle was wearing Blue Jeans and a black shirt that looked like it belonged to someone much older.

Fate had long blonde hair that went down to her back and red eyes to go with it. She was wearing blue jeans and a pink shirt to go with it. And finally there was Sarah who had red-orange hair and blue eyes. She was dressed exactly like her sister Fate.

U.E.R.U.? What are they doing here? And their assigned to that new warship to boot! Maybe I should see what’s going on here. I thought to myself as I tried to ease drop on the conversation.

"Well well...look what we have here." The one I think is Kyle said.

"Huh?" the one I thought was Josh said baffled. "Are you following me?" Josh angrily replied.

"What if I am?" Kyle responded.

"Then stop." Josh said getting angrier.

"I was only joking."

"I don't care, so honestly what are you here for?"

"Just getting something to eat, I'm not going to utterly fail in combat like you."

Combat? Are they planning a battle?

"We are the same."

The same? How can they be the same? I thought to myself. Everyone is different in some way. Unless their talking about that. No, there is no way they could be. I decided.

"No we aren’t, I'm way better," Kyle snapped back.

"You want to prove that to me?" Josh replied.

"Oh I will, 9:00 tonight, middle of the Atlantic a one on one." Kyle challenged with just a hint of menace in his voice.

"You've got yourself a funeral." Josh snapped.

"Yeah, and you’re the one getting buried." said Kyle laughing.

Josh didn't reply.

"Lighten up, it's only sparring, anyways I'm going to go, see ya tough guy." Kyle exclaimed before running off.

Well, this will make the patrol more interesting. I thought to myself as I put down the sunglasses I had been pretending to examine. We still need supplies and parts for the Gundams. I better go get those.

A Gundam was a more advanced prototype of Custom Mobile Suits. Mobile Suits were giant robots used for fighting enemies and was currently the main weapon used by the warring factions.

After I bought the food and supplies we would need, just then my stomach growled and I decided I should probably get some food. I checked my watch. Its only 3:00. I have time to eat. I know the perfect place too. I thought as I started heading towards a restaurant by the name of “Derick’s Shack”. They sold all sorts of things all the way from broccoli casserole down to pizza.

Derick’s Shack wasn’t especially impressive, but it provided adequate space. It has both indoor and outdoor seating. It had an old time feel to it. Although most of the seats and tables were made out of wood so it didn’t look old. Today I decided to sit indoors in one of the booths that they had. The booths were usually faced away from one another so that there was some kind of privacy.

Which was good, because being a mercenary I had made a few enemies here and there.

It wasn’t until the end of the meal that I noticed Josh, Sarah, and Fate a little ways from me. I started listening in on what they were saying. Maybe I could find out something useful for later.

"Then I'm off to go back to the ship." Josh remarked.

"Cash or card?" said the Waitress.

"Does anyone have any money to pay for this?" Sarah asked.

Fate and Josh both responded with blank expressions.

I laughed to myself. I guess I can help them out this time.

"Just add it to my tab." I told the waitress.

"Thank you" said Sarah and Fate at the same time.

"So can I ask who I’m paying for?" I needed to make sure they were who I thought they were. Although I was pretty positive it was them.

"I’m Sarah, this is Fate my sister, and that sitting over there is Josh, hes a little anti-social." Sarah said.

"Is that so? I'm Matt.” Time to take a chance. “You were assigned to U.E.R.U.'s new warship, the ‘StarCaster’ am I right?" It seems the info was right because they looked stunned.

Josh ignored the question.

"How did you know?" said Fate confused.

"Let's just say I like to stay informed." I continued.

"So, you pretty much stalk everyone?" asked Josh.

"You could look at it that way,” I said as I focused my attention on him “or you can say I'm just being prepared. Either way I hope I don't have to fight you in the field.” I responded amused by the wording of his question. I don’t like fighting people that I’ve met.

Josh didn't reply.

What’s he thinking? I asked myself. I took a look at the time and realized it was close to 4:00.

"Anyways, I have to go now." I said as I started to walk off. "I'll be seeing you again Josh.” I have a feeling that today will be very interesting. I thought to myself as a glanced over my shoulder.

I eventually made it to a four story building with a few of the windows missing. Odd place for a meeting. I noticed a mirror to the right of the entrance. The person staring back at me was a man in his twenties with short brown hair. He had blue-green eyes and a medium build about six feet tall. Not exactly intimidating, but then again I was here on a business trip. As I entered the building I was greeted by a slightly balding man in his this thirties. Figures the suits would be like that. I thought as I shook his hand. Then we got down the to business at hand.

"So let me get this right. You want me to go on a patrol mission?" I asked. Why in the world would they hire me for this?

"Thats right." the man replied.

"Allies will be?" I asked. At this point I was only focused on getting out of here. We were seated in a sound proof room.

"Three mediocre pilots and you." He replied.

"I assume you know about the fight that will be going on?" I asked.

"Thats why we're hiring you. To prevent any fights from happening." he said calmly. “We also have reason to believe that the new U.E.R.U. force might be active in the area.

Great. That’s going to make this harder.

I sighed. "What’s the pay?" I asked

"$10,000." he replied.

"Payment plan?" I questioned.

"To be delivered upon completion." He said.

"What happens then if I say no?" I asked.

"If you say no then I'm afraid that you will not get anymore missions from us, ever." He said with fake sympathy.

Tch. Typical suits.

"If you give me half up front I'm in. Can any of my allies help?" I asked.

"Nope, just you." he said. "You've got yourself a deal."

Great. Patrol duty. “Where do I report and when do I need to be there?" I asked.

"Be there at 8:00 tonight. If things get too bad I'll sound the retreat flares." He said.

"Great." I said. I might need it.

I'm working with three rookies against two super soldiers. This day just keeps getting better and better.

I left the meeting feeling disgruntled. Disgruntled at the war; disgruntled at the man’s lack of interest in his soldiers.

"Amber, send my Gundam down. I have a job to do." I said into my comlink trying not to let any of the irritation I felt seep through.

My Gundam, the Eternal Gundam, was mainly red except for two parts of it. The eyes which were actually just cameras, which were black, and the funnel pack, which was white. Funnels were small cone shaped weapons which were about the length of a human. The funnel pack resupplied and repaired them.

"Can do." the reply came.

Then I started thinking about the rookies again. This day may not be all bad. After all, I’ll get to see the rookies squirm. That thought made me smile. "Yeah this day may not be too bad after all." I said as I started walking towards the landing point.

Fateful Showdown


"Contentment is not the fulfillment of what you want, but the realization of how much you already have." --Unknown


And as I had previously said, the day hasn't been too bad. But then again I had yet to get to the worst. Fighting two super soilders was something no one could comprehend, so I forgive the fool who supplied me with this mission.

I looked up at the Eternal. The suns rays didn't do it justice. It was a beautiful suit, probably the best in the world. At least one of the best. Although to compare is unwise as specs dont represent how good a suit really is. Its the pilot. A wise man named Char Aznable told me this one day, I will never forget those words.

The computer monitor turned bright and shiny as the screen glared the word "GUNDAM". Gundam was an acronym, that I oddly didn't know. Despite my knowledge on the world, how could I miss something so trivial. Oh well, I can't let this bother me or else I'll never make it out alive tonight.

"GUNDAM" stands for "Guided United Necro Damaging Adominable Mobilesuit", its the strongest thing in the world. Or at least mine is. The day has been hard, too hard for my sake. I have had nothing but pressure thinking about th epossible endings to tonight. Will I die? Death...I fear it.

Althoguh fear is just a feeling, a feeling to overcome. Bravery. never before has such pressure dominated my mind, it's like I'm...

No...

"Matt, are you alright?" I looked over my left to see Johnathan to my right, he looked worried. For me? Unusual.

"It's about the mission isn't it Mat?"

"...Yes, although I'll be good". I somehow managed a straight face that was either believable or obviously forced enough to make John turn away. Good thing though, as I didn't feel like talking about this.

"This is Matt, Eternal Gundam, launching!"

The Eternals eyes glew as its thrusters roared to life in a fiery blaze, snapping forward at enough G's to kill anyone. I took off from my station and headed toward the Atlantic, "This day hasn't been so bad at all".

---

I arrived at the scene of a battle. The two mobile suits were already clashing, sparks flying from their swords. "What should I do...?" I asked myself those words. They don't know me, although I have a mission to destroy anything in this area, as its part of patrol.

"Ben, I need help, Kyle is a lot tougher than expected"

"Alright Josh, let's defeated him togethor"

I dashed forward in hopes of aiding my friend. Hyle noticed me and threw his shield at me, i dodged.

"Get away from me! Who asked you to but in, eh!?"

kyle was obviously made, as his Gundams movements began to change sporadically. They were nearly unreadable. I pulled a Beam Boomerang out form my shield and threw at him, he smacked it away with his anti-ship sword. I released my funnels and began shooting at him. He shot 2 of them down with his machine guns as we went in and clashed. I tried to shot him as we clashed, but he kicked me back and shot two large plasma cannons at me.

Josh and his Avenged Gundam managed to throw a shield and between me and the blast, sparring me a leg. This is getting tough. If kyle can manage both of us, who knows how troublesome he will be if I don't have an ally.

The Avenged jumped back along with the Enlightment and they both shot their chest lasers. clashing. The impact of both lasers caused a massive shockwave that split the lake below them. They both blew back and launched their funnels. My funnels joined Joshs at we shot in a straight line towards Kyles, not one funnel remained.

"Tch..." Josh was getting agrivated at the deadlock between him and his rival. I sensed a spark within him, something I had never fealt. I noticed over the camera link to his Gundam that his eyes were now white, I decided to sit back and watch the fight. This was going to be good.

I landed on a cliffside away from the fight, as the two clashed. Josh immediately gained the upperhand easily, slashing one of Kyles legs. He was victorious, impressive might I add.

"Can I come back to your base?" Josh added, having no where to go.

I looked down and over at the Ocean horizon and thought about it, I quickly came to my conclusion.

"I sadly can not let you, although we'll fight together soon" I said, taking off.

"Alright, I'll head back to my base"

Suprisingly I made it out of the night, a story I'll never forget.

It is literally everything that the Weeb produced for his fanfic. I included it all for completion's sake, considering the motto of this webzone. I've edited this down to three posts and basically condensed the non-story stuff into spoiler tags to shorten my foot print if that makes it less daunting and readable.

Just because I'm autistic, I've decided to write a sword and sorcery style fan fiction about My Little Pony. It will take place in a time known as the Hippoborean age (hippos being the Greek word for horse) and the main character would be a barbarian who is trying to stop a sorceress from summoning the eldritch beast known as the "beast master". All of the characters will be OCs.

What? Why would you make it about ponies if it takes place in an original universe and has only OCs? From what you've said, it doesn't even seem like it's going to be matching the tone of MLP, so why ponies?

I kinda want to establish a layered mythology to the series. In addition, I think that it would be funny if this takes place in the same universe as MLP. The tone would be somewhat sarcastic in addition to establishing more of a world. Think of it as an alternate view.

You may as well make them people.

I'm with snaps and exball. Sorry, man, but I think "just because you can, doesn't mean you should" carries the day here because everybody's taken their own awkward-ass stab at tone-inconsistent or "alternate universe" MLP fics by now, so unless you can succeed where a whole herd of others have failed with and without some tenuous connection to canon, you're just gonna be another grain of sand on the beach.

Guys, I can't really make them people, for the main reason that the main villain is going to be a human. What should I make them instead?

 

[A Random]

You said it yourself.

Make them hippos. Hippopotamuses.

Yeah, but hippos aren't generally used as livestock. Maybe I should make them goats.

 

[A Random]

Yeah, you should make them goatse

Why does the villain being a dude mean the others can't be either?

He's somewhat of an eldritch entity, that is more threatened to be summoned than show up. I also think that writing a fan fiction could;d be an interesting field to hone my world building skills, because I would be basing something off of an existing universe, but only slightly.

Eldritch entities are literally the opposite of human.

Eldritch entities are literally the opposite of human.

That's the point, the human is supposed to be completely alien to the rest of the cast, who aren't human at all.
