Epilogue

Light spilled into the room as the door was opened the group made their way inside "It looks like they didn't find it after all…" G smirked as the thick layer of dust on the floor was disturbed as they entered the old building.

"So what is this place anyway gramps?" Duo II asked as he flipped the switch getting no response from the lights.

"Don't call me that…" G glared at him as he pulled out a flashlight "come on… we're here for a cleanup job…"

"So this is where you guys first developed the gundam's…" Kira asked as he walked inside following Erica.

Erica nodded "Yes, this is where the Wing Zero was developed but never built…" she shined her light over towards an old work area a computer sat there its old monitor covered in dust the lamp on the desk with cobwebs from spiders between the two the distinct smell of the dampness of the abandoned facility in the air.

J smirked as Ryuta followed him "So how's Heero doing…"

Ryuta shrugged "Relena nearly had to tie him down in the hospital bed to keep him from getting up and walking out… honestly they took almost half a pound of shrapnel out of him, a cracked thigh bone, five broken ribs and he still tried to get up and walk out…"

J laughed as they made their way across the room "That sounds like Heero… at least he isn't like your father when it comes to hospitals… he used to torment the nursing staff by pulling off his heart monitor making them think he was flat lining just to get them there quicker."

"So what are we looking for?" Katherine asked as H pulled open a drawer on a desk in a side room as she held the light for him.

"Anything pertaining to the gundam's development… Wing Zero was developed here and having the original blueprints and designs for the various prototypes we came up with fall into someone else's hands would have dire consequences." H pulled out some old files and opened them flipping through their contents.

"I'll see if I can get the lights working to help our search…" Duo II said as he walked towards a circuit breaker.

Kira shined his light around the room "There are more desks and work stations than there are of you… were there more scientists Mrs. Lowe?" his light fell on a station cluttered with papers and old files.

Erica looked over "Yeah, there were a few more of us... some were our father's students… and professor G's son…"

Erica noticed a photograph sitting on the old desk as Kira picked it up blowing off the dust from the old picture's glass a group of eleven stood there Howard in the center sitting with a full head of black hair in his pink Hawaiian shirt with wrap around shades, behind him Dr. J with both of his arms still his dark brown hair with grey streaks in it already the young Erica standing next to him the arm of Odin Lowe draped over her shoulders, next to them were Instructor H before he had started to bald and a man in a lab coat similar to his standing behind him with a short wave to his brown hair under a bright yellow hat another man stood smiling. On the other side Master O stood next to Dr. J with a man to his left who had a white set of coveralls on his hair parted in a comb over standing smiling next to Doktor S in a similar set of coveralls, lastly was Professor G his hair jet black as was the young man's next to him with an unkempt hairstyle that looked like he needed to shave badly a young woman with blond wavy hair pulled close as he held up a peace sign with two fingers grinning like a fiend.

"After this photo was taken, we split up… all of us heading off on our own to make sure OZ couldn't track us down…" Erica sighed as she looked at the photograph.

"So who are these people?" Kira asked.

"WE GOT POWER!" Duo II yelled as he flipped the breaker and the lights came on illuminating the entire workspace causing them all to wince at the sudden illumination of the workspace.

As Erica opened her eyes she noticed something sitting on the desk that was behind where the Photograph had been sitting a small drive she picked it up and flipped it over "This was…" she blinked as she noticed her name "Addressed to me?"

Kira pulled out the chair and a note was tucked into the back of the seat "What's this?" he pulled it out seeing another message addressed to Erica.

Erica sat down "This was my desk…" she turned on the computer and waited as it booted up the monitor flashed to life for the first time since the photograph had been taken illuminating another message written directly on the monitor in black ink "Coordinates X 26, Y 38 out of the northern lights?" Erica blinked.

The other scientists made their way over with the pilots as Erica started looking over the message writing it down on a pad.

"What is all this?" Katherine asked looking at the photograph.

G looked the note over as he took it from Kira "Mind if…"

"Go ahead, read it…" Erica said as she opened a drawer and pulled out a box of alcohol wipes as she started the clean the monitor off.

G cracked open the yellowed envelope and pulled out the paper inside "Hey, Erica, I'm leaving this note here because you're one of the few people that believed in the project Howard and Dr. J were working on… well we did a little further research and found out it's true… and theoretically it should work and have come up with a theory after hearing Tem's findings, because the Alliance is getting too close for comfort we had to split up our little group… you'll find me after you look towards Leo… your friend, Abel Salsamille."

Erica blinked as she looked at the photograph the man in the yellow had smiling "Abel… they continued the research…" she started typing pulling up the desktop after entering her password she plugged the drive into the computer.

"What research… you don't mean…" Kira blinked as he looked at the photograph.

Erica nodded "Back then, it was only a theory… we were still working out the hard math of the warp drive's physics… only half of us thought it would work…"

Doktor S sighed as he looked at the photograph "Salsamille… he was one of my top students, a genius in ballistics and beam weaponry."

J nodded as he smirked Ryuta blinked "Who are the others?" he asked.

J smiled as he picked up the photograph "The one between O and S is Tem Ray… he was the head of the armor composite development, developing Luna Titanium as his engineering thesis for his doctorate… and the two on the end next to G are…"

"My idiot son and his ditzy wife…" G glared at the photograph at the young man.

The other scientists erupted in laughter "You're just mad because he developed a better stealth system than you could…" J smirked.

G glared "The hyper jammers are practical; his theory of spreading Gundanium particles was nothing more than science fiction! And that…"

"It would work Professor…" Kira looked at him "Gundanium is non magnetic, lighter than air when atomized, undetectable by radar, sonar, and heat absorbent… in theory it would work if you could maintain it…"

Erica blinked "Hang on… this is from…" she pulled open a video file where a woman's smiling face appeared wearing glasses with the man who was Professor G's son standing in the background.

"Hi Aoi… it's me… we noticed the notes left by the others… looks like they left already… and we're the last to go." The woman smiled "We had a little falling out with G so we're giving it a shot... say hi to James for us please, and if we make it we'll be sure to get in touch after we find you…"

"What do you mean 'get in touch' I'm never coming back here again!" the man with the rough black hair yelled "That old big headed crackpot can kiss my ass goodbye!"

The woman rolled her eyes and smiled "Well, we're going to the coordinates calculated on the disk… we found something very interesting when we did a test with an unmanned probe… take a look!" she turned the camera towards a screen that showed a planet that looked like a blue marble orbited by a golden ring "I was shocked when we found out the people call it 'Earth' too… it seems Tem's findings might have been right… when you see this get in touch with him if you haven't already… bye for now… and hope to see you again…"

"Come on… let's go…" The man yelled as the camera turned back towards them "P.S. if you see G, tell him we left James with my sister…" she smiled as the camera shut off.

Duo II blinked and looked at G "Who's James?" he asked.

"That dimwit's son… the one you were created from." G looked at the screen as Erica pulled up the data and sure enough the information was accurate to what they had located "We might as well go see if they're still around… I may have to apologize to my crackpot son." He glared "and his idiot of a son…"

A boy sat in the blue and black flight suit with his eyes closed as his suit entered the atmosphere thinking back as the words that brought him to where he is now echoed in his mind as his memories flooded back The boy ran through the streets of the town carrying an assault rifle as mobile suits fired upon the guerrilla forces as a message echoed through the town "This battle, is a holy war in the name of god! We shall strike down the infidel's who disrespect our traditions and lay waste to the land of god!"

He slumped against a wall as the man's voice echoed over the loud speakers the plodding of the mobile suits through the streets echoed breathing as he caught his breath "We must not submit to the infidels!"

An explosion caught his attention as he shot up and started to run aiming his assault rifle and firing before an explosion knocked him forward "AHHH!" he tumbled down the broken building's hallway before coming to a stop in an open area where he saw a mobile suit could be seen turning towards him.

He pushed himself up and grabbed his rifle as the man's voice echoed "By dying in battle, we shall be led into the presence of god!" he scrambled and ducked behind a wall covering himself holding his rifle shaking as he breathed.

He looked up seeing the broken doll laying on the ground blood stains covering its dress "In this world… there is no god…" the boy said softly as the sound of missiles hitting an enemy mobile suit echoed not so far off.

The sound of one of the mobile suits turning and its fifty caliber machine gun turning taking aim at something caught his attention as the loud clatter of the gun opened fire he ducked as the massive slugs burst through the wall right above him in a line down it as it passed he grabbed his rifle and took off at a run for his life. The message repeated "This battle, is a holy war in the name of god!" the man's voice echoed.

"In this world there is no god!" The boy yelled as he ran for his life. He rounded a corner as a mobile suits fifty caliber machine gun strafed the ground as he ran away from it. He dove into a small shelter area where a brick wall and another wall covered his sides as he looked back a glimpse of movement caught his eye he backed up to the wall holding his rifle as the tan mobile suit turned to face him taking aim before it could fire a bright pinkish red beam streaked down right through the top of the suit causing it to fall the boy watched as similar beams streaked down from the sky destroying the other mobile suits in a similar fashioned. He looked around and then upward to where he saw a mobile suit flying there as if held aloft by the greenish gold glow that was coming from its back as it turned it faced him the all white mobile suit the light increased spreading as if it were an angles wings the boy opened his eyes and watched as the clouds passed "Gundam…"

Duo ran over to where Hilde, Yzak, and Shiho were sitting as he sat down the brown bag on the table "So… any news from the others?" he asked.

Shiho shrugged "No… Heero's still in the hospital… the scientists went to inspect some old lab of theirs… oh and this came in the mail…" she blinked as she pulled out a pair of envelopes nicely decorated handing Hilde one marked for her and Duo.

Hilde flipped it over "Wonder who it's from… no sending name…" she blinked "Wait…" she opened it and pulled out a small card "You are cordially invited to the…" she blinked and smiled "wedding of Mu La Flaga and Murrue Ramius!" she smiled as Duo choked on his food before grabbing her coffee and holding it out for him "Duo, don't die now we have a wedding to go to!".

Duo took the small cup and gulped the coffee down in a single gulp breathing heavily for a second "Thanks…"

Yzak laughed "Well… I saw this coming... time to go track down the others… I'm sure they've been too busy to check their mail…"

The group started to get up to leave when the screech of tires caught their attention as Duo II skidded to a halt on a black motorcycle "Wait damn it! Duo you guys have got to come quick we've found something big… really big and pretty bad…" his eyes were wide as he spoke frantically.

"Yeah… sure but what's the rush… if it's the wedding we already know…" Duo stopped as his younger counterpart tossed a photograph at him he caught it "What's this…" he blinked seeing the scientists.

"The two next to gramps you dumbass we found them! And it's not looking good where they're at!" Duo II glared.

Hilde looked at the two the young man with black hair and the grin she recognized "Duo… is that your dad…" she asked.

Duo blinked as he realized looking up at Duo II "We'll get the others… where's the meet up!" he asked.

"Don't bother, Kira, Katherine, and Ryuta are already tracking them down, let's go!" Duo hopped back onto the replica Vincent café racer and fired up its V twin engine.

The small group ran for Duo's car as he started to pull out whipping the bike sideways with the squeal of the tires as he pulled out doing a hellish burnout.

A light green and black mobile suit flew through the shots on the training field for its demonstration debut to the crowd of people rolling through the shots then firing on them with its linear rifle. It touched down at a cross section almost immediately under fire a long defense rod rotated rapidly blocking the incoming shots before it charged the cannons opening fire knocking the targets out shutting the guns down.

It leapt kicking off of the top of a building firing on several tethered targets before passing them as they fell it flipped and leveled off firing down upon the targets shutting down the remaining guns.

The crowd murmured impressed by the suits maneuverability as a man sat watching with long brown hair pulled back wearing glasses and a white suit with a black dress shirt and purple tie. "So… this is the Enact… the first AEU mobile suit that runs on solar energy…" he looked closely at it as a man walked down wearing a dark navy blue suit.

"The development of the AEU's orbital elevator is defiantly lagging…" The man spoke as the other looked up at him his green eyes and short blond hair in contrast to the suit "They probably wanna make up for that by making their mobile suit state of the art…" he smiled.

The scientist smiled at him "Well… look at this, should the ace of MSWAD be showing his face here?" he smirked as the man started into the row taking the seat next to him.

The man smirked "Of course I shouldn't be here…" he said almost laughing his hands tucked into his pockets as he took a seat.

"You know, the AEU's got some nerve alright…" the man in the white suit looked at the Enact as it flipped and rolled doing demonstration maneuvers "Announcing their new model at the same time as he Human Reform League's tenth anniversary ceremony…"

"So what do you think of this machine anyway?" The blond haired man in the blue suit asked.

The man in the white suit shrugged "To be perfectly honest, it's just a knock off of our Flag model… only the exterior design is original…" he smiled.

"YOU THERE, I CAN HEAR YOU!" A voice yelled as the two looked back towards the Enact which had landed it's pilot got out and stood up putting his hands on his hips glaring at them "WELL COME ON!" he taunted.

The MSWAD Ace chuckled "Well at least it has good sound pickup…"

The man next to him laughed "I guess so…" he opened his eyes looking upwards where he saw a light descending he nudged the man in the blue suit "Hey Graham… look up…"

Graham looked skyward and narrowed his eyes on a light descending towards them.

"Aren't you supposed to be resting?" Zechs asked from the door as he saw Heero standing at the window.

"I've been through worse…" Heero said bluntly as he turned looking at Zechs.

Zechs smirked "Yeah… but back then you didn't have someone who would get on your case about it…" he walked into the room and took one of the seats as Heero hobbled over to another chair.

"So, how's Mariemaia doing?" Heero asked as he sat down wincing slightly at his injured ribs.

"She's fine… Treize can barely be pulled away from her for a second... Middie's been keeping an eye on them making sure no uninvited guests show up…" Zechs sighed.

"I've not been as fortunate… had Quatre, Nicol, Dearka… hell half the damn crew of the Archangel has been in here… the door's been opening and closing nonstop…" Heero smirked as he looked at Zechs "It gets annoying…"

"I can imagine…" A voice caught their attention as they looked to see Noin and Relena glaring at them "You should be in bed…" Relena glared at Heero.

"I'm fine… I've been through worse and lived…" Heero smiled at her "Besides, my injuries aren't life threatening."

Relena sighed as Milou and Naina looked at him surprised he could be so calm although having bandages wrapped tightly around his limbs that had been injured and be able to even move let alone get up and walk.

"How the hell are you…" Milou started.

"One thing about hospitals that I learnt from my father… yell loud enough and they'll give you anything you want… if they stop paying attention then just die on them…" Heero smirked as Zechs started to laugh.

Relena glared at Heero "How could you just let yourself die… that's no…"

Heero held up a hand where a little clip was closed around his finger attached to a heart monitor "I take this off, it looks like I've just flat lined… and I have every doctor and nurse on the floor in this room."

The sound of running feet caught their attention "Heero you didn't…" Relena shot a glare at him as someone barreled into the room sliding to a stop.

"Heero, I've got news and it's not good!" Ryuta half yelled as he slid into a table in the room to stop his momentum.

Heero blinked "What is it…"

Ryuta breathed as he caught his breath "You won't believe it unless I show you…" he pulled out a small drive holding it in front of him "We've got a real mess on our hands… and it's getting worse by the hour…"

"Another rebellion!" Noin asked looking at Ryuta almost ready to have the others leave.

Ryuta shook his head "It's dealing with… oh hell you're already out of bed just come see for yourself so mom can explain the details…"

"Heero's still injured!" Relena glared at Ryuta "He needs…" she stopped as she felt a hand on her shoulder she looked and saw Heero standing next to her.

"I know what I need… people to stop worrying about me when I have minor injuries…" Heero smiled at her "Now… if you will leave the room so I can get changed…"

"No, at least talk with the doctor first…" Relena glared at him "You're not going anywhere before…"

A soft knock came on the door "Mr. Lowe, your test results you requested came back… you're free to leave but please don't push yourself too hard…"

"Thank you!" Heero yelled from behind the amassed group in the room "See… I won't push myself, I promise…" He smiled at Relena.

"Heero, you're really stubborn you know that right…" Relena looked at him as he smiled at her.

"Another habit I picked up from my father." Heero chuckled lightly before wincing at the pain in his ribs.

"Two, four, zero, zero, eight two Exia has target location in sight, cease GN particle dispersal upon arrival at target." The boy in the blue pilots suit watched as the AEU's demonstration grounds got closer he pulled up an image of the Enact "Target confirmed, commencing first phase, on schedule." He changed course slightly as he dropped lower

Xxx

"Captain! I've spotted an incoming silhouette!" An AEU soldier looked back at his commanding officer in the command center of the AEU's base near the demonstration grounds.

"What!" The captain glared at him.

The soldier turned back to his station and started typing "It's at three o'clock sir!"

The captain bolted upright "Which squadron, this is an exercise damn it! Warn them off!" he ordered.

"It's not showing up on our radar!" The radar operator yelled.

"Nothing here sir!" another soldier yelled.

The captain glared "Get a visual on it!" he ordered as the soldiers worked.

The soldiers brought the image on screen as it came in the clear display showing the Exia descending.

The captain blinked as he looked at it "What the hell kinda unit is that?" shocked.

Quatre clapped as Trowa and Catherine preformed their acrobatic routine in front of a sellout crowd from private seats with a good portion of the other pilots and officers of the preventers that were invited to wind down from the chaos of the previous weeks.

As the show ended the Preventers remained in their seats until Trowa and Catherine had gotten changed as they left they made their way back to the trailer where Trowa Phobos had been watching over a stew that was waiting for them "So how was the show?" Trowa P. asked.

"Great, went off without a hitch!" Catherine smiled as she walked over the officers taking some bowls and talking.

"Thanks, I heard some rumors that you know how to cook…" Sally smiled at Trowa P. as she scooped some of the stew into the bowl.

Trowa shrugged "He's learning…"

Trowa P. nodded "It's not much, just something Catherine taught me…"

Nicol smiled "That's saying a lot, Catherine is one hell of a cook…"

"No, Nicol it's really not all that much, it's just the same stew I always make…" Catherine smiled at her boyfriend.

"Quatre!" Katherine yelled as she ran over breathing slightly heavily.

Quatre blinked "What's wrong… Katherine?"

Katherine looked at the officers "I hate to bring bad news… but we have a problem…"

"What kind of a problem?" Arthur looked over as Mu, Murrue, Talia, Andrew, Natarle, and Sally all looked as Kathy, Stella, Auel, and Trowa all looked waiting for her reply.

"What do you know about the warp drive systems…" Katherine asked looking at them.

"Not much besides the basic mechanics…" Trowa looked at her "Why?"

"Apparently there were more than just the scientists we knew about working on the project back when it was still just a theory… each of them reached a similar conclusion and by some information they left, they each went off in different directions towards different coordinates… we've decoded only one so far… and it's bad…"Katherine looked at them as they each started to eat their food quicker.

Quatre looked at her "How bad…" he asked.

Xxx

"A mobile suit… incredible I didn't know they had another new model." The man in the white suit looked up with the other people in the crowd as the Exia closed.

Graham kept his eyes fixed on it "Billy… that's not theirs, what is with that light…" he watched as the suit landed its features completely different than anything they had seen before the upper chest a cobalt blue and gold the middle a crimson red the arms and legs white a V shaped antenna just over the cameras in the head of the suit as it turned and faced the Enact.

A general two rows in front of them pulled out his phone "Enact, can you hear me enact? Patrick! Damn I can't get through… What's going on here!"

"Communications are out…" Graham looked down at the general and blinked.

A soldier stopped just behind them "Everyone, we've been advised to evacuate!" he gestured.

Billy blinked "It's not an AEU machine! Well who's is it!" he looked at the Exia as the pilot of the Enact Patrick reentered his suit.

Xxx

Patrick smirked as the full three hundred sixty degree display activated around him "Alright, who the hell are you… From the Union, the Human Reform League? Well either way you're a party crasher and you weren't invited…" his voice came over the outside lines "AND NOW YOU'RE GONNA PAY THE PRICE!"

Xxx

Graham and Billy sat and watched as the General stopped in front of them "What the hell is that idiot doing out there! Doesn't he know how much money it cost to develop that thing!"

Another man stopped next to him "It's a good opportunity… it'll just raise the value of the Enact… after all Patrick Colasour is our militaries top ace right? His personality could use a little work though…" he smirked.

Xxx

Patrick locked onto the Exia "Hey, you! Do you have any idea of who you're messing with here! I'm Patrick Colasour of the AEU I've never lost a mock battle 'cus I'm just that special!" he activated the Enact's close combat weapon the sonic blade as he drew it he smirked "So don't say I didn't warn you!" he activated the blade it popped out of its handle like a switchblade as the blade started to vibrate that would allow it to cut through the Exia's armor.

Patrick charged brandishing the knife "WELL COME ON!"

Xxx

The boy watched as the Enact closed "Exia, ready for target elimination…" he said in a calm cold tone as he grasped the controls activating the main weapon of the Exia the large blade on its right arm. The Exia's eyes flashed as the massive blade swung down into place rapidly as the Enact closed and in one fluid stroke he took the hand brandishing the Sonic Knife off of the suit the blade still held high as the Enact stopped mid step.

Xxx

"WHAT THE HELL!" Graham's eyes shot wide as he watched the Exia cut the hand clean off the suit as it stopped the hand hit the ground.

Xxx

Patrick glared "Ahhh… YOU BASTARD! YOU DON'T GET IT DO YOU!" he turned raising the linear rifle taking aim at the Exia and fired once the Exia rolled dodging the shot with ease as it reached across its body and drew a beam saber now wielding two blades he brought the saber down cutting the arm that had the defense rod on it off "I'M…" The Exia came back with the solid GN blade bringing it upwards cutting the arm with the linear rifle off "SPECIAL…" Patrick yelled as the Exia made its final stroke brining the beam saber across cutting the head clean off of the Enact as it fell "I'VE DONE TWO THOUSAND…" The Exia returned its weapons as the Enact hit the ground "…OF THESE MOCK BATTLES!"

Xxx

Duo II was laughing his ass off on the dust covered floor as they watched the Exia carve up the Enact "Man that loudmouthed dumbass was begging to be shut up!"

"Shut up Duo… this is serious, you heard that one guy in the suit right… right after he grabbed those binoculars, he called it a Gundam…" Kira looked at the suit more closely on the screen.

Erica nodded "This is a replaying of the footage we located, this took place earlier today. Along with another similar incident when a terrorist attack tried to take out an orbital elevator owned by the nation known as the Human Reform League…" She looked at the amassed group in the dusty room.

Heero narrowed his gaze "Have they made any announcements or claims?" he asked.

Professor G shook his head "No, as of this moment no organization or any of the nations has laid claim to them… however we did locate this footage from the orbital elevator still under construction by the nation known as the Advanced European Union… I don't know why they call themselves advanced when their mobile suit technology is outdated and they're behind the other two when it comes to progress but… this is what we found."

The pilots and officers watched as the Exia dodged shots from the Hellions rolling blocking attacks again and again when suddenly a beam shot up from the ground taking a hellion out of action and sending it spiraling towards the ground.

"Where the hell did that come from!" Dearka gaped as the others looked on shocked as more Hellions started to fall to the same thing shooting them and the Exia.

"This footage was from a camera over four miles up the orbital elevator… it is a thermal energy beam rifle, presumably from a long range suit, seeing as its supporting the other gundam we can also assume it is a gundam." Dr. J looked at them as he leaned on his cane "Judging by the size of the beam and the velocity, most likely it is from a suit designed to excel at extreme distance, the combat style…" he looked at Heero.

"Of a sniper…" Heero finished before he continued analyzing the firing pattern "The shots are precisely placed as well… the distance suggests he's using a sniper rifle of some sort…"

"Then, we decided to investigate the pillar's information…" Erica pulled up another file "This is the combat footage from there… the mobile suits of the Human Reform League, the Tieren this is its space type variant the MSJ-06II-E."

The pilots watched as the group of three suits flew towards the attacking terrorist piloted Hellion's missing them by a narrow amount as they opened fire.

"They don't have beam weaponry on those suits?" Yzak blinked as he saw the muzzle flashes and tracer rounds.

Doktor S nodded "As far as we've seen, none of the large nations suits possess any beam weapons, save for the Union who employs a plasma based energy saber using a sonic blade as a base. Otherwise they're all using linear rifles, and chemically powered weaponry."

The pilots watched as the terrorists fired a barrage of three missiles at the pillar right before they were going to hit they were struck by a single shot destroying all three missiles the reddish pink beam followed by a orange and white fighter that flew past rolling as the terrorists opened fire on it.

"Nice moves…" Ryuta watched as the suit rolled before diving on two of them destroying the Hellions.

The pilots watched as the third Hellion broke away flying at its full speed towards the pillar "He's going to perform a suicide attack… great…"

"Just watch…" Kira crossed his arms making Athrun look at him "This is just overkill for one suit…"

They watched as a white suit appeared in front of the pillar between eh Hellion and it, the suit was massive its large bulky legs and frame suggested what it was designed to do as it leveled a large cannon in front of its chest, it fired vaporizing the Hellion in one blast of the beam cannon.

Dearka whistled "Damn… fat man's packing some serious firepower…"

They closed the video when Erica pulled up a photograph on the screen "I'm sure many of you are wondering where we found this information… well… it came from these people who are not present with us… they're old colleagues of ours… and this is after we tracked down the easiest to locate… which as you can see…"

"Duo…" Professor G stopped her before he reached into his pocket and tossed something at the older Duo "The dumbass and his wife left that on my desk when he left… it's the original plans for the Deathscythe, tell me what's different."

Duo unfolded the blueprints and blinked "What the hell is this thing on the back…"

"A theoretical engine that doesn't work, or so I thought until I saw these images…" G pulled up an image of the Exia as it spun revealing its back "It's safe to say the dumbass and his wife are behind this."

Duo looked at G "So… what your saying is that this pertains to…"

"Yes James it does…" Erica sighed as she leaned against her desk "Your mother was the one that left us the coordinates… right before they left… it was covered in dust behind the photograph… after your father and grandfather got into an argument over something he won't talk about." She shot a glare at G "They left after doing some experiments, leaving you in the care of your aunt… you should recognize her, they were twins after all…"

Duo looked up at the picture and blinked as he saw her "That's Helen!"

"Close…" G looked at him "Helen was your aunt, you ran off when you were two years old, getting lost in the colony… she is the foolish girl that married my crackpot son." He pointed towards the man who had the same grin that Duo had his hair messy and some grease smeared on his face.

Heero looked at Duo "So… your name's James then…"

Duo glared "I'm Duo… after hearing this they can go to hell for all I care… they picked up and left me with my aunt not even blinking an eye!" he turned to leave before Hilde grabbed him.

"Duo… your parents are alive… you should at least give them a chance to explain…" Hilde spoke calmly.

G nodded "It's been almost twenty years since I saw that dumbass, he's been a busy man and I must say… I'm intrigued that his engine works… I want to know how it works, because, I'm sure you've noticed it is different than the nuclear fusion reactors, none of the suits show signs of having vernier thrusters of any kind, and they can move almost effortlessly. And judging by how those nations are reacting it's some form of organization similar to the C.L.O."

Kira blinked as an alert went off on another computer he ran over and started typing "Holy…" he transferred it to the main screen where a news broadcast could be seen.

"JNN has just a video message from an organization that claims it is responsible for preventing the attack and saving the station." The female news anchor spoke calmly "It's not clear who they are… or if the claims they are making in the video are genuine… but what is clear is that somehow they are involved in the incident… now for our viewers we will broadcast it, unedited…" the screen switched to an older man sitting in a high-backed armchair, a round red carpet displaying a logo of some form in front of him his balding head set off by his full thick beard his hands braced on his cane in front of him wearing a black suit with a purple scarf like tie held in place with a single golden pin.

The pilots looked on as the man spoke "I would like to address this statement to every single human being born and raised on earth. We call ourselves simply, Celestial Being. We are a private armed organization in possession of the mobile weapon Gundam. The main objective of Celestial Being's activities, is to completely eliminate acts of war and conflict from this world! We do not act for our own benefit or for personal gain. We have chosen to intervene for the greatest goal of all, to rid ourselves of the scourge of war!"

The pilots sat silently watching as the man continued "As of this moment, I make this declaration to all humanity territory, religion, energy no matter what the reason or excuse, if there is an evident act of war being carried out we will commence intervention with armed force! Any country, organization, or corporation that promotes war, will also be a legitimate target for our intervention. We simply call ourselves Celestial Being we are an armed organization that was established to eliminate all acts of war from this world! I repeat…"

"So… when do we leave?" Heero asked looking at the officers.

G nodded "We may not like it, but we are directly responsible for handing them their most powerful weapon… and they've made their stance clear… it's your decision's representatives…"

Cagalli, Relena, Flay, and Lacus looked at each other for a moment "They intend to use gundam's to end war with war…" Lacus spoke looking around at the others "We have seen firsthand that war is an inevitability… all you can do is stop it before its embers burn the nations of the world."

"What they're suggesting is foolish, ending war with war will only spread hatred…" Cagalli looked at the pilots "We must stop them at all costs."

"I agree with your sentiment's Chief Representative Athha but how do you propose we do that, they have just made enemies of themselves claiming Gundam's as their own weapons…" Erica looked at her "We could make our own statement…"

"No…" Relena looked at them then at Heero "Heero, you've been thinking of a plan for some time now, I can tell…"

Heero nodded from his seat "They're performing this with four units that we know of so far… we have twenty two active pilots, five times their number, not including the reserves… we can easily counter them by infiltrating the three major block nations."

Treize nodded "I believe that the plan Heero has developed is a sound one. If our nations made themselves aware not only would Celestial Being know we're coming to aid them but they would also quickly be able to back track our path if one or both of the scientists are working with them and perform their interventions on all fronts. Making tracking their movements even harder than it was to find the gundam's during Operation Meteor."

Dr. J grinned "Anticipating we would be getting involved we had Kira take care of the preliminary information lines, we've also found that in one nation in the AEU the primary source of income is Private Military Companies, eventually they will become a target, we'll set up our base of operations there while the pilots infiltrate the Union, AEU, and HRL to confront Celestial Being head on."

Duo looked at him "And what about the gundam's?" he asked.

Howard smiled "We'll keep the gundam's at the PMC, flying in with your suits to join the fight would get messy… people would start asking questions, and things would eventually lead back to the main base… however if we need to deploy them we'll have them ready."

Duo smirked as he looked up at the photograph on the screen again "Hey gramps, if we come across them…" he nodded towards his parents "Do we have to play nice…"

"Duo…" Hilde blinked looking at him.

"Because right about now, I really wanna deck that smug look right off his face…" Duo stopped as G started laughing.

Professor G smiled narrowing his gaze at him "You sound just like him… if you see the idiot make sure its him first, I'm not coming to bail you out of jail."

Duo nodded "That'll be just fine…"

Graham laughed as he drove "Now that's rich! They seriously want to use force to eliminate war, Celestial Being your whole existence is a contradiction!"

Billy nodded as Graham drove.

"Ribbons, it has begun… humanities reformation…" Alejandro Corner smiled as the large ball of ice shifted in his glass of scotch.

Ribbons nodded smiling.

"Hallelujah… It's as if all the worlds' evils are exposed…" Allelujah Haptisim watched the speech wearing his orange flight suit.

Tieria Erde nodded wearing his purple flight suit "Humanity is being tested… by the power of Celestial Being." He closed his eyes his voice lacking emotion as he spoke.

Sumeragi Lee Noriega sighed "That is a terrible misdeed…" she said softly.

Lockon Stratos smirked as he shut off the light screen of the small tablet "Well, this is it… we've started it… and it can't be stopped…" he spoke calmly as he looked down at the small orange Haro at his feet.

"It won't stop! It won't stop! It won't stop!" the Haro chirped as it bounced up and down. Lockon turned to look at the boy in the blue flight suit as he took off his helmet.

"Hey, we just picked a fight with the entire world… do you know what that means Setsuna?" Lockon asked looking at him.

"Yeah… I know…" he said calmly as he looked up at the Exia and the Dynames the two gundam's standing next to each other "I know, because we're the Gundam Meister's… of Celestial Being."

Just over the L1 region the four warships of the Preventers appeared approaching the earth ringed by the solar power generation system.

As the pilots dawned their new uniforms they met in the briefing room where they saw Noin and Zechs in civilian clothes "We don't know where or when they'll strike next… as such you have been assigned to each of your units to attempt to make contact and intercept Celestial Being's gundam's."

Zechs smiled as he looked down "Your unit commanders are as follows, Yzak Joule will be in command of the AEU taskforce. Chang Wufei will be in charge of the HRL's taskforce. Heero Yuy is in command of the Union's taskforce, after reviewing your mission parameters you are to head to the designated points and infiltrate your militaries, there are no such things as coordinators, Gundanium, nuclear fusion reactors, and colonies are strictly under military control and few in number, so don't talk as if they were common place, understood?"

Dearka stood up "So what am I doing then?" he asked wearing civilian clothes.

Sally smiled "We need a group that can investigate Celestial Being that won't draw a lot of attention from the militaries… so we're having your team infiltrate the largest news network of the Union, the JNN."

Dearka smirked "Roger that…"

"So what are the standard unit's we'll be looking to see… and what can we expect performance wise?" Milou asked wearing his light blue grey AEU uniform.

"The three standard models of the nations you can expect to be piloting…" Dr. J grinned as he brought the machines onto the screen "Are these… the HRL's MSJ-06II-A Tieren Ground Type and its variant the E type for space combat use… the AEU has an older model known as the AEU-05/05 AEU Hellion Perpetuum that is going to be replaced by the suit that gundam brought down that was on demonstration the AEU-09 AEU Enact… finally the Union's main model the SVMS-01 Union Flag…"

The suits displayed on the screen as the pilots watched and learning the various weaponry layouts of the suits.

A man sat typing at a computer at Celestial Being's manufacturing point in L1 when an alarm went off he looked over to the computer screen to his right and blinked as he saw for an instant four ships that he had never seen before come out of a bluish white flash "Can't be…" he started typing like mad pulling up sensory data.

"What is it dear?" The man's wife asked as she floated over next to him.

"I hope it's nothing… but we might have some uninvited guests from…" he trailed off as he looked up feeling the hand of his wife on his shoulder.

She looked at the screen seeing the four ships that were from a few seconds prior as a still frame showed them coming "Home… do you think it could be Aoi?"she asked.

The man narrowed his eyes "It could be that nosy old fart..." he glared at the screen.

The woman sighed "Would you just drop it already, G sent us that message before we left apologizing… he was impressed with the concept for the Deathscythe…"

"He still wanted to follow through with the plan Barton put forward to avenge Heero Yuy… I'm wondering if they actually went through with it…" The man looked at the screen.

"Mommy…" A little girl yawned as she rubbed her eyes "What are you…" she asked her brown hair pulled into a pair of pigtails that curled downward on either side of her.

The woman smiled at her daughter "Come here Mileina… mommy wants to show you something…" she smiled at the girl as she kicked off floating over to where her parents were.

"Mommy what are those ships?" Mileina asked.

"They're from where we're from, or at least we think so… your grandfather and older brother might be aboard them…" She smiled at her.

"You mean Papap G?" Mileina asked.

The woman smiled and nodded "And your brother James…"

The man laughed "Come to think of it… how old would he be now…"

"He was still just a toddler when we left him with Helen, Ian… but now that I think about it he should be about eighteen maybe nineteen…" she smiled.

"You're right, I wonder if he's as much trouble for his G as I was back then Linda… ahhh…" Ian Vashti sneezed and blinked "That old man's gotta be on that ship… and he's talking about me." He grimaced.

"Do you think they'll try to make contact with us?" Linda asked looking at the screen.

"There's a chance… there's also a chance we could be completely wrong and it's the Alliance or OZ coming after us… I'll check it out and give the others a heads up when I deliver the equipment…" Ian got up and smiled.

The pilots stood and saluted "Dismissed." Zechs smiled.

Duo was the first starting out the door wearing the light blue uniform of the Union of Solar Energy and Free Nations "Celestial Being… you've made a date to meet the god of death…" he made his way down the hall until Hilde caught up with him wearing her civilian clothes.

"Duo…" Hilde spoke softly.

"Yeah what is it Hilde?" Duo asked as he turned to look at her.

"I want you to promise me something…" Hilde spoke softly as she looked at Duo "Don't punch your fathers lights out if you see him… I overheard Erica say something about G apologizing… its been almost two decades since they left… so please Duo…"

Duo looked at her "Alright… but remember something…" he smirked.

Hilde blinked "What…"

"Don't argue when you become my wife, I don't want to hear you arguing with my mother if we find them…" Duo smirked.

Hilde laughed "Oh I won't… James Vashti…"

Duo looked at her "I'll always be Duo Maxwell… nothing can take that past away." He said with a cold tone as he turned and kicked off again heading away leaving Hilde stunned.

"Wait so they're on our side!" Patrick asked blinking "SWEET I WONT GET MY ASS KICKED THIS TIME!"

Oh no… you'll still get your ass kicked Patrick… just by Yzak… just try not to get on his bad side too much alright…

"Wha…" *THWACK* Patrick crumpled into a heap as Yzak belted him across the face wearing his AEU captain's uniform.

"Nice to meet you top ace of the AEU… I'm sure you'll learn to keep your mouth shut if you don't want me to shut it for you…" Yzak smirked as he adjusted his barrette the symbol of the AEU emblazoned on it.

"SAVE ME COLONEL!" Patrick screamed as Yzak seized his foot and started dragging him out the door.

"What a dumbass…" Kati rubbed the bridge of her nose as she followed Yzak out "At least I have some competent pilots this time…"
