Crossdrive, A Mobile Suit Gundam Story

UC: 08/19/0079
Side 7 EFSF research base

"Sir the Whitebase is requesting docking permission.." the comm officer told the on duty EFSF port Commander.

Matilda Ajan stood for a moment with her eyes closed, her short red hair tucked neatly under her cap. She nodded to the comm officer and said. "Very well clear them for the main docking bay and inform Tem Ray that the Whitebase will be docking there." She said and stood up from the chair in the comm center of Side 7 EFSF's post. The young man nodded and replied. "Yes Ma'am.." And went about clearing the Whitebase for docking.


Amuro stood on the cat walk over looking the three Gundam Proto types in the hanging being ready to load on the new EFSF warship soon to be docking. Many officers were moving about getting ready for the warship to dock, he turned as he felt his friend walk up behind him. "So you've heard by now then." He said to the blonde man walking up to him. "Yeah I have.. Amuro we need to talk.." He said and learned on the railing over looking the hanger. Amuro did the same as he replied. "Listen Char... I know your mad... But this is not the time for us to be talking about Lalah.." Char didn't look but watched the techs working on the 3 mobile suits of Project V.

Before Char could answer though both men were thrown off balance as the whole hanger shook. "What was that?!" Amuro asked aloud as he stood up and looked to the hanger control room. Char looked to the hanger doors and then to Amuro. "It's a Zeon attack..." He said, he didn't need to know, he felt it.." Amuro looked at him and then both nodded to each other and rushed for the room where the space suits were kept, seems that they would be forced to test the new Mobile Suits in real combat sooner then they thought.

Domon stood over looking the junkyard on Side 7 while Lowe was away getting some parts on Earth. He watched as the Zeta Plus C1s worked on moving the heavy parts and junk they couldn't sell out of the way or load onto a waiting truck. When the colony took the hit Domon was one of the few to keep his balance on top of his Gundam. "Rain.... Zeon's attacking... Might want to call Lowe.." He said as he sat down on the God Gundam's main camera.

Rain came running out of the small house behind the God Gundam and ran right back in to make the call, the Zeta C1s all started walking to Domon when they regained their balance.

Ramba Ral's coffee was now floating around the bridge of his Gwazine class Warship, the Desert Rose. "And just who told them they could fire?" He asked as he stood up, the bridge crew a bit scared he might throw his cup at one of them. No one answered him either.

---------------------------------------

Amuro and Char had changed into flight suits and were standing in the hanger control room with other EFSF officers. "So Zeon seems to have followed the Whitebase here and it would seem that we're facing 5 Warships.. a Gwazine class and 4 Musai class ships... " Matilda Ajan told the room, and showed a few screens with the said ships for them to view. "We've called for back up but it's more then a good 5 hours away... So we either make a run for it with the 3 proto types or make a stand here at Side 7... I want more options people... You have 5 minutes.." She said and left the room, and the moment the door shut the talking began. Char and Amuro were in the back and looked out into the hanger. "Why not just use the Gundams to attack?" Amuro asked, which got him a smack on the back of the head by his best friend. "And risk losing them?" Char said, looking at Amuro like that was the worst idea ever.

ZAFT Nazca class space battleship: Newmoon
08/19/0079: 18:16:44 PLANT Standard time.

"Call the The Professor to the bridge... She's gonna want to see this.." Yzak Joule says as he watched the Zaon ships open fire on Side 7. The Newmoons sits just outside the scaning range of the Zeon ships keeping a eye on them. Yzak had a bone to pick with Zeon Ace "The Crimson Lightning"

"Professor... Commander Yzak wants you on the bridge..." the Zaft officer said after knocking on the door over ten times. the young woman was starting to get annoyed with this, she wasn't sure why she was sent down here to get this old fart but she didn't like it. She turned around to lean on the wall next to the door. "That old fart must be sleeping or looking at dirty pics of woman or something.... Just because I spilled Commander Joule 's coffee does not mean I should have to come get some old man who's probably going to give me dirty looks on our walk up to the bridge.." She said aloud.

"So I'm some old fart who's going to give you dirty looks am I?" A woman asks the young zaft officer, who turns to look to see a woman dressed only in a open robe next to her, with long red hair and glasses. "Umm.. I... Uh... Hmmm..." Is all the zaft girl gets out before the woman walks off still wearing only a bath robe. soon followed by the zaft officer.

[Airmaster]

Ramius Murrue stood in the shower as the warm water washed over her body, thinking back overt he day's events, She had been ordered to lead a strike against the Zeon home colony of Side 3 with a tack force armed with Nukes, it didn't sit well with her and she knew it all to well.

Natarle Badgiruel 2nd in command of the Arckangel sits in Murrue's room waiting for her to finish her shower, she is rather annoyed that she was asked here to talk and then forced to wait for her CO to take a shower, which seemed to be taking far to long. She would have been in and out in no time flat, and would never make a fellow officer wait for her. "Grrr... Why is she making me wait here? I've got better things to do with my time...." She says in a low voice and stands to leave.

"Leaving so soon Natarle?" Murrue asks as she steps out of the bathroom wrapped in a towl. Naterle salutes and sits back down. "No Ma'am... Just standing up for a moment.." She says. Murrue laughs a little and sits on her bed across from her friend.

-----------------------

The Zeon ships where now in combat 1 status and their Zakus were being prepped to launch. A Red and Black Zaku II was being giving a Zaku Bazooka over the normal machine gun they carry. "Is she ready?" a man in a green and light red pilot suit asked. "Yes Sir.. She's ready for launch as soon as we get the gleen light." He replied. "Good...." the man replied and then floated up to the cockpit of the Mobile Suit.

-----------------------

Near Side 8:
"Haro... haro..." Haro said as he floated through space.

[Airmaster]

Somewhere inside Side 7:
"Gah!!?? Why now?!" The Pilot of The O yelled to himself as he rushed across the colony inside as a few Mobile Suits and Mobile Armors chased after him, he had pissed off a few people in his time, but Paptimus Scirocco knew it was all for his greater plan, but he didn't think he'd run into a pack of angry female pilots he double crossed here at Side 7.

-------------------------

Four and Stella stay in the large bath in the depths of the Arck Angel as they listend to some music by pop star Lacus Clyne. Both girls were lost in thought and didn't hear when Jane Houston walked into and stepped into the warm water.

She looked at the two girls but didn't bug them, she herself was just here to relax. She felt most at home in water, be in her Mobile Suit or in real life, something about water passing over every inch of her body, it helped her relax.

-------------------------

Just outside the Arckangel:
4 Strike Gundams were playing space Vollyball with a Ball.
"Woot! We win!" one of the red Strike gundam pilots said.

[Airmaster]

Amuro and Char were sitting in the hanger inside the Gundam Proto types the RX-78-1 & RX-78-2 Units while the 3rd Gundam and the two support units for Project V were being loaded into the White base.

"Well I guess this is the best idea... But why not ask for support from the junk guild or PLANT?" Amuro asked over the com to Char, who said nothign in his reply as his Gundam grabbed a Hyper Bazooka off the rack in the hanger. Amuro followed up and grabbed a pair of Beam rifles and put a heavy shield on the back of his unit.
-------------------

Noin was alone on the colony X18999 as the place had been empty for years, funding fell through and the colony was never fully finished, and it was out in the middle of nowhere, so here she stood in the middle of a all but empty colony and floated in 0G as she waited for her friend to pick her up.

Zecks was half way to the moon now and still had the nagging feeling he had forgotten something he was to do after he picked up the tallgeese from the Preventers HQ. "Now what was it I was ment to do?" he asked out load as her read his book as the MS was on max speed for the moon.

[Airmaster]

Haman sat in her room eating some cake as she flipped through a Mobile Suit mail order catalog and looked for something to buy Char for his birthday, but wasn't having any luck. She sighed and she forked another bite of cake into her mouth and then held the fork in her teeth and leaned back in her chair. She stared at the ceiling as she sat there. A knock on her door brought her back to reality and she sat up and pulled the fork out of her mouth and got up and answered the door. "I'm busy... What do you want?" She said.

The man standing there looked a little bit confused and then spoke up. "We're nearing Side 7... You said you wanted to know when we got close enough see the colony Ma'am." He said and saluted and left before she smacked him or something.

Haman sighed again and grabbed her cap from her chair and left for the bridge.

--------------------------------------

Ramius Murrue and Natarle Badgiruel stare at each other for a long moment before Natarle speaks up. "What did you want to talk to me about Ma'am?" She asks. "I like Mu... And I've heard you do too... We need to talk this out before things get out of hand..." She says as she takes her towel and tries her best to dry her hair. Natarle sits there shocked for a moment her mouth hanging open, how she found out she didn't know but now things would get out of hand, she would kill who ever told her best friend she had the hots for her boyfriend.

[Airmaster]

The next words out of her mouth even shocked her, and Ramius Murrue was at a loss of words as well. "Why not just have a three way with Mu?" Both women sat there for a long while before any words were spoken, both not sure how to act or what to say next, Ramius was the first to brake the silence. "You... You want... What?!" "Errr... Ummmm..." Natarle tried to think but was lost in her own thoughts yelling at her.

--------------------
Side 7: Space
3 hours before the Lacus Clyne concert:

Amuro and Char fought the Zaku IIs the Zeon ships had launched, each pilot on both side danced a wonderful show as they darted around the blackness around them, the only colors from their weapons lighting up the darkness of space.

"Damnit..." Amuro said as he filpped his Gundam around to try to hit one of the Zaku IIs attacking him from below his Mobile Suit. Shifting the thrust from full to half to save energy he tried to lock onto the cloest Zaku II.
