fight for a future

Somehow or other, Riina managed to stumble into the hangar of the base. All around stood docking bays for Gundams and Suits, which brought a gut wrenching feeling back to her heart. Le Cygne was like a part of her soul and losing it was as if someone had taken a chunk from her heart. Sliding to the floor and leaning against the steel wall, Riina tucked her knees to her chest and closed her eyes in dispair...

Oi, you! Aren't you the pilot of the downed suit?! What the hell are you doing here?

A soldier had spotted the crouched figure of Riina and now stood over the small girl, his gun pointed squarely at her head.

Are you a spy? A terrorist? Why are you in the hangar?

Eh? i'm sorry....i felt a bit groggy and decided to go...for a walk. I dont know how i got here...

The beady eyes fo the guard got even smaller and his gun lingered for a few more seconds before he stoed it and yanked the girl to her feet, his grip, iron on her forearms.

Whatever. Im taking you back to the infirmary before interrogation.

Like a rag doll, Riina got yanked behind the guard's large paces.

Ow....! Please....stop pulling so hard....
 
As Mary was working on calibrating the Airmaster Burst. She heard sounds coming from behind her.

Are you a spy? A terrorist? Why are you in the hangar?

Eh? i'm sorry....i felt a bit groggy and decided to go...for a walk. I dont know how i got here...

Mary turned around and saw Riina being pulled by a guard. Coming down from the scaffolding. She headed to see the guard.

Whatever. Im taking you back to the infirmary before interrogation.


Ow....! Please....stop pulling so hard....


Mary said to the guard, "What's going on?"

"We found this girl in the hangar, I don't know what she is doing here but she must be interrogated."

"That's enough, let me take care of this."

"Yes, Ma'am." The guard left.

"Are you feeling better?"
Mary extended a hand to Riina, "Come with me, i think the commander of the base may want to see you."
 
Zeria smiled at the sound of Stephen's laughter, then nodded when the captain's orders came through.

"Zeria Iiyasei in the Blitz, launching now!"

She kept close to the Freedom, keeping a close watchout.

"So we have to kill Z.A.F.T. forces if there are any...I wonder what's going on..."

Zeria noticed that the way Stephen was piloting seemed almost different...and she smiled more as she recognized the cautiousness. She blew him a kiss, giggling.

"Love you too, darling, but you don't have to change how you pilot just for me..."
 
"Love you too, darling, but you don't have to change how you pilot just for me..." Came throught the com and as Stephen looked up he cought the end of a blown kiss. smiling Stephen glanced at his Radar. "well huni, it aint for me, i want to keep an eye on my beloved fience" Stephen informed her before he noticed alot of Red dots beeping towards them "oh shit, Zeria this could get colourful" Stephen announced as he jumped on the speed.

Putting some distance Stephen's targetting system came down, as the freedom preformed a forward flip, as it returned to an upright position at the end of the flip, all of it's guns were pointing forwards "OUT OF MY WAY" Stephen shouted as he pulled the trigger 3 times, unleashing 3 full volley's from the Freedom (36 beam rounds) shredding the suits directly infront of them. Stephen then reconnected the beam rifles to his hips and pulled his Lancerta's out.

bursting forward, Stephen slashed through the foes, there was easily over 200 Ginn's about, Stephen wondered why Z.A.F.T would send so many Ginn's to a small base, but he didn't care, he was to down any and all Z.A.F.T suits, he also had a greater impulse to Stop anything getting close enought to damage the blitz
 
"I'm capable of more than you're giving me credit for, love..."

Zeria's attention switched over as soon as the red blips on her radar appeared.

"They got here fast...must've seen us coming..."

She drew the lancer spear, moving forward. She gave a growl of frustration at Stephen. She hated it that he was trying to keep them all from her. She was more than capable of defending herself in a fight. She'd done it all her life. It was only when several more blips appeared that she got worried...especially because they were coming from all directions...

"Stephen, keep your guard up! They're-gah!"

A group of ginns slammed into the Blitz, and Zeria cut the connection to the freedom, spinning around as she brought up her phase shift armor.

"Shit...I knew this would happen..."

Zeria maneuvered the Blitz with a skill and determination to keep living that was unmatched. She had begun to cut down Ginns like a crazy fiend. She was frightened though. Terrified. She didn't like being so surrounded...
 
Stephen took notice of all the Ginn's surrounding Zeria, and noticed a force heading for him, his eyesight blurred, he had a small flashback of Riina falling into the atmosphere, and then Mary in the Aegis blowing up. "I've lost to many" Stephen muttered "I WON'T LOSE HER ASWELL!!!!" he shouted as his Seed ability activated and he began firing from all barrels, taking down the suits trying to surround him, he then spun around to Face Zeria and the Ginn's around her, ha connected the two beam rifles together to make his beam cannon, and then aimed it for the suits to Zeria's left "Zeria, break right" he announced down the com, 3 seconds before pulling the trigger.
 
OOC: Another short one. You take the lead till we hit the meeting with the commander. Ill start the mission then.

"Are you feeling better?
Come with me, i think the commander of the base may want to see you."

Riina rubbed her wrist where the guard had gripped. She sat there for a few seconds, letting he
r mind settle and waiting for the dizziness to go away. Shaking her head, riina took the outstretched hand and hoisted herself to her foot. However, the strain was too much and Riina herself was unable to sustain holding her physical self. Instead, Inglesia took over.

i am fine, thank you very much. If we need to go to the commander then so be it. Don't waste time.

Inside Riina's mind, fabiola did a mental fly kick at Inglesia and took over for a second.

Ehehehe...sorry 'bout that. Inglesia like that. Ignore her.. Let's go then.
 
OOC: Alright, but for the record, this may involve some godmodding to get us into the position, I apologize in advance.

I am fine, thank you very much. If we need to go to the commander then so be it. Don't waste time.


Mary said alright, but before she was about to turn around, Riina then said, "Ehehehe...sorry 'bout that. Inglesia like that. Ignore her.. Let's go then."

"You're a strange young one, are you?"
Mary said, then decided to drop the subject, "Come on, let's go."

Heading towards the jeep, the two ladies climbed in and drove to the Commander's Barracks on the East side of the complex. After the drive, the two ladies walked into the barracks and saw but a hallway with a lot of doors. Mary and Riina walked to the last door down to the right, where Mary knocked before entering, "Commander Cole, I have someone you want to see."

OOC: The rest is on you now, Tipsy.
 
Zeria instantly knew when Stephen had to have switched over to using Seed ability. His fighting became more intense. She was grateful that he was keeping most of the Ginns off of her for now. As he called through, she shifted the Blitz right as fast as she could, throwing a Ginn out of her path and into the path of the beam cannon's fire.

"That was far too close..."

She swallowed hard, readjusting her helmet, and took a deep breath.
[Just relax, Zeria. You'll make it through this. You and Stephen are a team. Nothing can take you down. Giulio is watching over you]
After her mini pep talk, she felt better, and maneuvered back into the fight. Only this time, she was fighting harder. Using the Gleipnir system, she hooked onto a Ginn, pulling it towards her, and firing off beam rifle shots through it. The next Ginn to go down was taken down by her wrenching the arms off of it, then ramming one through the middle of it.

"You can't separate us! We belong together forever!"
 
(Sorry, internet has been down)
"Finally" Kira says to no one in particular. The recent weeks had been spent repairing the massive damage he had dealt with backbreaker to the Nazca.

"Maybe I should find a less destructive weapon for capturing things... like an A-bomb." His own joke struck him as funny after so long without human contaact, and he almost burst out laughing at himself. "Not gonna go crazy yet, still got too much to do. Like finding a crew for this beast. I doubt anyone in my village could even get it off the ground."

Not being fool enough to think he can fly it, Kira let's the local salvagers know that he needs help finding a good pilot. No mention is made of the Nazca, but the pilots do know they will be flying a capitol ship for a private investor.

With that done, Kira looks to find a place for a likely second attack.
 
OOC: i assume i can make up his appearance?

As the duo entered the room, a tall man in an immaculate uniform and a straight military-cut hair turned to face them. He was big, towering over the two female pilots. His face seemed to have been chiselled straight from rock, hard, harsh and unforgiving. With deliberate slowness, Commander Cole strolled up right in front of Riina, pipe in hand.

Are you the pilot that was recovered from the downed Gundam?

Fabiola grimaced internally. It was beginning to feel like an interrogation. Thankfully, it was her and not the other two. Communications was her specialty. Inglesia would have let loose her fist and Riina would have cracked like an egg in her condition.

That is correct. I am the pilot of Le Cygne. And before you ask, i am not with Z.A.F.T. I am part of the Mercenary Unit, Hunters.

Again, Fabiola stared deep into his eyes, and in return was a stone wall, unflinching.

Hm...So you say... In any case, how did you end up where you were?

Shot down above in orbit while defending a comrade against Z.A.F.T ambush. I was lucky that my suit survived reentry.

Hm.....

~~~~~
*****
~~~~~

About an hour later, the gruelling questions stopped and it seemed that the Commander was satisfied with Fabiola's testimony.

Very well. You seemed to be telling the truth, so i guess we should let you go.

For the first time, the commander cracked into a smile as he offered a hand of excuse to Fabiola. Glad that it was over, Fabiola was about to leave when she remembered something.

Commander, i have a request if you would allow it?

What is it?

I would like to go back to my crash site. There are some important personal files on the onboard computer that i would like to salvage. May you lend me someone to take me there?

Hm.... I suppose so... Mary, you take our friend here to where you found her. Keep her from killing herself out there. Go whenever she is ready. Okay? Dismissed.
 
Hm.... I suppose so... Mary, you take our friend here to where you found her. Keep her from killing herself out there. Go whenever she is ready. Okay? Dismissed.

Mary smiled and said, "Sir, yes sir." She then walked out hopefully with Fabiola following her.

Mary said to her, "I wanna ask something, where there other pilots in the Hunters besides you and me then? I'm very interested in what my life was like back then."
 
Stephen in the Freedom spun around, his eyes with an unforgiving look burning through them "time to end this" Stephen muttered, the Freedom's arm that was clutching the beam cannon swung around pulling the trigger as it went, unleashing a beam that cut through a Squadron of Ginn's like a hot knife through butter. the Freedom's DRAGOON system unleashed volley after volley at another Squad, taking them down just as easily.

Stephen was about to shred the remaining forces when three Flares could be seen in the distance, "what the hell, their retreating" Stephen announced as the DRAGOON spikes reconnected to the Freedom's wings, Stephen watched as the Ginn's ran. Stephen looked over at the blitz and a comm, channel opened to the suit. "hey huni, how you holding up?" Stephen asked, nothing but love in his voice, his eyes returned to normal as he smirked.
 
Two days after his message had been put out, Kira was still without a pilot, so he decided on a more drastic measure. A file he had discovered buried in his unit's onboard memory banks had given him a crazy idea. Aboard the Nazca, he found all the parts he would need to pull it off, even. When he was done, sadly, the Nazca would be nothing more than a transport vehicle, but his unit would be a great deal more useful in small combat.
Kira uses his gundam to take the pieces and pull them apart and reassemble them, cutting the required time in half.
The file he drew the plans from was labeled "Experimental: Finn Funnels"
(OOC: The end result of this post is subject to approval. If I can't have them, I will just have the process fail in some way.)
 
Zeria swallowed hard as the flares went off.

"Thank the gods for their retreat..."

She looked up as the comm channel opened and smiled. His voice was like music to her ears.

"I'm holding up alright. I think the Blitz took a bit of damage from being rammed into though. I'll have to fix it up later. The right arm won't move like it's supposed to"

This could end up problematic if she couldn't get the Blitz fixed soon. She was worried, but didn't tell Stephen that. She didn't want him to worry too. It just wasn't any good to have both of them that way.

"I should have used the mirage calloid...I didn't think about it before we went out...they wouldn't have seen me if I'd used it..."
 
Stephen glanced over at Zeria's Blitz and spun around "lets head back, and don't worry about not using the mirage colloid system, it can only keep you out of sight for so long before the enemy realise something is wrong and Start firing pot shots out" Stephen explained in a loveing tone before he put the Freedom into action again and headed back towards the Archangel. the trip would only be a short one, as the Archangel had now approached the battlefield, the plan was to head back into space once both the freedom and theBlitz were back in the hangar, apparently there was something going on in space, and it was big.

Stephen didn't mind this, although he did worry about the Blitz' capability to keep up with the battles with it being older than most of the other suits that are used.
 
Zeria sighed, leaning back in her seat.

"I suppose you're right..."

She knew he was. The mirage calloid system was only a starting thing for when she didn't want to be seen. In regular battle, once things were going, it didn't prove effective much to her, unless she needed to take a few moments to retreat and catch her breath. As she re-boarded the Archangel, she felt almost...relieved. The battle was over, she and Stephen were both alright, and now they had at least a little bit of down time while the Blitz was being fixed up.

After she docked in the hangar bay, she climbed out, having left her helmet on the seat in the cockpit. She was a little achy from being jarred around so much, but she'd live through it. She really didn't want to tell him she was hurting either. Zeria didn't want him to be upset or worried for her...
 
Stephen noticed that Zeria had docked in the Archangel and Stephen felt relieved, he had noticed the Blitz wasn't running as smoothly as normal as he made his last approach the captain came over the Comm System "Tribal, stay out there" Stephen glanced over his shoulder and noticed that the Captain was ordering him to stay out and fight there was a wave of mobile suits, they looked more advanced that the Ginn's "thats why they retreated" Stephen muttered "Tribal, i am sending the Verde buster and Blu Duel out to help you" the captain announced.

Stephen looked up and smirked "Captain, i got this, leave it to me" Stephen announced "Fine, but i will have them at the ready just in case" stephen nodded and spun around, Launching towards the battle field, Stephen knew what he had to do, these suits were built to destroy the Freedom, and prefferably kill Stephen, but this wasn't going to happen, it couldn't not after Zeria agreed to marry him.
 
Zeria nearly panicked as she saw the Freedom going back out. She swore up a storm, climbing back into the Blitz. She was upset now, and didn't want him going out there alone. She connected comm with the Freedom.

"You idiot! Take backup with you! There are multiple suits out there! I don't care if you're the best damn pilot we have, you're not risking it! Not when there's so much to lose!"

She grabbed her helmet, and one of the repair crew poked his head into the cockpit.

"The Blitz isn't ready yet! It'll take too long to repair the damage done!"
"Well too bad then! I'm not letting him go out there alone!"

She shoved the repair crew guy out, then yanked on her helmet, starting up the Blitz.

"Zeria Iiyasei in the Blitz, preparing to launch!"

The captain's voice came through.

"Crimson, don't you dare launch with that damaged suit! I'm ordering you to stay in the hangar bay!"
"Your orders can kiss my ass right now. This is my fiancee we're talking about! I'm not letting you give in to his stupid pride!"

She launched out after the Freedom, this time making sure the Mirage Calloid system was in effect. The longer she could go without being seen, the sooner more backup could arrive, and the more suits they could take down...
 
the Captain's face appeared on the Screen of Stephen's com, he had a pissed off look on his face, at that moment Stephen noticed the Blitz on his radar, the mirrage colloid system was interfaced to the Hunters suits, so the pilots knew Zeria was about "CAPTAIN, WHAT THE FUCK" Stephen shouted "it would appear your fience don't want you out there alone" the captain replied before Stephen cut him off.

"damnit" Stephen then opened a channel to the blitz "Zeria, there is nothing you can do out here, the Blitz is damaged" Stephen announced as he felt the Seed in his head burst and he entered close Quater battle with the Squad of 5 mobile suits.
