With Seth.
Seth and Stella inside of [Stargazer] exited the void and found themselves the vacuum of space. Seth noticed what appeared to be a space station and noticed what appeared to be mobile suits. They were red in color and had a head similar to Evangelion unit 2. Blaze and Flame quickly went to work on finding out any information about this universe. [Stargazer] was too far away from the mobile suits to be detected.
"Seth I've found out what these machines are. The two units that look similar are called [XIII] and the different looking one is called an [Ahead]. They're part of a government program called A-Laws." Blaze stated.
"This group apparently uses military force to suppress any terrorist groups. That what the public is told, but I've found several article linking this group to counts of genocide, but the government has linked the authors of the articles to either being members of a terrorist group or being mentally insane." Flame stated. Seth decided to watch and see what this group was going to do. He knew that those stories could just be conspiracy theories and this group was just doing its job to uphold peace. The mobile suits were attacked now by a group of blue mobile suits. It was clear that the A-Laws mobile suits were more advance.
"Seth, look!" Stella said as she pointed to one of the [XIII]. It released a strange black object into the station. Suddenly the black container released small unmanned drones. Blaze hacked into the station and got the camera feed. She displayed the camera feed on [Stargazer] main monitor. The small black drone encountered unarmed men and open fire. These drone were made for one thing, massacre. Seth knew that this group was not upholding peace.
"Stella, we need to stop them."
"Count me in." Stella now sat in [Stargazer]'s co-pilot seat. Seth gave Stella control of the bits and the chest plasma cannon. The duo in the white Gundam now charged at the red machines.
"Sir, incoming enemy machine!"
"Is it Katharon reinforcements?"
"Unknown." The unknown machine now came into view. The sight of the machine shocked the group from A-Laws.
"A Gundam! Celestial Being!" [Stargazer] had all the traits of a Gundam in this universe except it was missing the green GN particles. Two of the A-Laws mobile suits charged at [Stargazer]. Louise was in the third machine, but the sight of the Gundam gave her a panic attack.
The [XIII] attacked from the front and entered a bind with [Stargazer]. The lance the [XIII] was covered in anti-beam coating and wasn't cut by [Stargazer]'s beam saber. Seth raised up his beam pistol and was about to fire when the [Ahead] appeared behind him. Stella ordered the bits to create an energy shield and blocked a barrage of energy shots. The [Ahead] was about to jab at the shield when several pink beam were fired at the red mech. The suits looked towards the source of the beams and saw a mobile suit that was badly damaged. Seth open fire on the [XIII] killing the pilot. The [Ahead] saw that this mission was going to end with them dead if they didn't flee. He grabbed Louise and headed back.
The damaged [Exia] was starting to approach [Stargazer], but a massive pink GN particle got between the two of them. Setsuna in the damaged [Exia] looked towards the source of the pink beam and saw a black and white Gundam.
"That mobile suit is-"
"Setsuna, move away from that machine!" A man said.
"Tieria Erde, what do you mean? That machine is a Gundam."
"It's doesn't belong to Celestial Being. It's dangerous." Tieria in [Seravee] said as he charged up another attack.
"Well they aren't friendly!" Seth said as he moved [Stargazer] just in time to avoid a beam.
"Seth he's firing again!" Stella yelled as [Seravee] charged another beam from its GN bazooka. The damaged [Exia] now joined the fight against the mysterious Gundam.
"Damn, I guess this is what I get for being nice." Seth now went on the offensive. He first engaged the damaged [Exia] and easily disarmed the machine as it was significantly weaker. Seth could tell that [Seravee] was a juggernaut type of machine. It could take one hell of a beating. The black and white machine continued to fire a massive barrage of beams. The output of the beams were on par with Seth's Nova beam. The white Gundam deployed its hidden beam sabers and slashed off some of [Seravee]'s cannons. However Tieria was able to grab a hold of [Stargazer] and with [Seravee] massive strength he started to rip the mobile suit apart. Seth began to charge up a beam from the chest cannon on [Stargazer] and Tieria let go just before the beam fired, but he fell for Seth's trap. [Seravee] was suddenly hit by a barrage of beams thanks to [Stargazer]'s bits. The beams were able to severed all but the torso of the mobile suit, leaving it intact. Blaze and Flame detected a signal being transmitted by an outside source. They triangulated the signal's origin and he took the two disabled mobile suits with him.
30 Minutes Later.
Currently aboard [Ptolemaios II] the crew was starting to get worried. They lost contact with Tieria Erde 30 minutes ago and they haven't heard from him since. They knew [Seravee] entered combat before things went dark, but if the Gundam got destroyed then it would have let out a signal, but the machine didn't. They feared that Tieria was captured and somehow got [Seravee] to stop transmitting.
"This isn't like Mr. Erde to not respond. I'm getting worried." Mileina Vashti said. She is the daughter of Ian Vashti, the man who is in charge of Celestial Being's mobile suit development. She currently staffs the tactical operations station of [Ptolemaios II].
"Tieria is strong. I'm sure he's fine and he probably found Setsuna." Feldt Grace said. She too operated he tactical operations station of [Ptolemaios II].
"Hey look over there!" Lasse Aeon, current leader of the [Ptolemaios II] said. The three of them looked at the main screen and saw the silent [Seravee] and the long time missing [Exia], but they was being carried by an unknown mobile suit. They couldn't open fire without risking hitting the two Gundam pilots. They saw the unknown white mobile start flashing a light. It was in morse code.
"The white mobile is saying that's it's not an enemy and is requesting to come aboard." Feldt said.
"I'll open the dock." Mileina said.
"Wait! What if its a trap." Lasse said.
"If it defeated both [Exia] and [Seravee] then it would have no trouble attacking us. I think we can trust it." Feldt said.
"Fine, open the dock, but send a response asking for the machine to drop all of its weapon." Lasse knew this was a major risk he was taking, but he had to get Setsuna and Tieria back. Fledt sent the signal and they saw the white mobile suit drop its weapons. [Ptolemaios II] opened its docks and [Stargazer] entered.
Now that [Stargazer] was inside of the [Ptolemaios II] Seth knew he had to show himself, but he didn't know if these guys would be dangerous.
"Stella stay inside of [Stargazer]. If anything happens I need you to protect me, but don't move unless l tell you to." Seth said.
"Okay Seth." Stella said. Seth opened the cockpit of [Stargazer] and jumped out. At the same time Tieria and Setsuna both came out of their mobile suits with pistols in their arms.
"Put your hands up!" Tieria said.
"Well aren't you friendly." Seth responded.
"I said put your hands up!" Seth partially deployed [B.L.A.Z.E.] and equipped her pistols.
"I'll lower my weapons if you do the same. Please all I want to do is talk." Seth said. Setsuna and stared down Seth intensely before they saw him lower his weapons. They did the same.
"Thank you, now I believe I should introduce myself." Seth removed his helmet.
"My name is Seth Fairs, it's a pleasure to meet you." Seth said.
Setsuna and Tieria introduced themselves as well.
"Tieria Erde."
"Setsuna F. Seiei."
"That mobile suit is it a Gundam?" Tieria asked.
"Yes." "So this world has machines called Gundams as well." Seth made a mental note.
"But it doesn't have a GN drive."
"GN drive?" This caused a deal of suspicion from the two Gundam pilots of celestial being, but luckily for Seth Blaze and Flame did a little favor for him. Lasse came with some shocking news for the two pilots of celestial being.
"Setsuna, Tieria, this kid is a new Gundam Meister for celestial being."
"What?"
"Seth Fairs welcome aboard, we could always use a few more hands."
"Wait, but he attack me." Tieria said.
"Hey, I helped out Setsuna before you fired on me. It was in self defense." Seth said. It was true that he was only helping out and Tieria open fire on him.
"Huh? Seth where's your co-pilot?" Lasse said.
"Co-pilot? Ah, you mean Stella. Hey Stella come on out." The blond short hair girl came out of [Stargazer] and introduce herself.
"Setsuna, answer me, have you always been the pilot of that machine?" A man said as he got out of [Exia]. Seth turned to the man and saw a brown hair man. He looked like he was in his early twenties. Setsuna almost forgot about Saji Crossroad in [Exia]. He was unfortunate enough to be thought as a member of Katharon and would have been killed had it not been for Setsuna.
"Yes." Setsuna said answering Saji's question.
"Then were you part of celestial being's interventions four years ago?"
"I was." Saji charges into Setsuna and grabs his gun. He points the pistol at him.
"You bastards! Do you have any idea of what the people close to me went through. Louise lost her right arm and her whole family. I lost my sister after she started investigating celestial being. You bastards weren't stopping wars, you were making them. Give them back to me!"
Somehow they were able to restrain Saji and getting the weapon out of his hands. They placed him the brig until they could find a safe way of getting him back to earth without A-Laws coming after him. Seth and Stella, thanks to two special ladies, were accepted as members of celestial being. Seth offered his engineering skills to celestial being and was able to get data of the GN drives. He was surprised at the output of these engines and the hidden abilities of two GN drives working together. Seth made some blueprints for [Stargazer]. Blaze and Flame quickly went to work to make the two new GN drives for [Stargazer].
Over The Next Few Days.
Seth had proven himself to be very useful to Celestial Being. He showed his skills in mobile suit engineering that he gained on the [Archangel]. Seth was surprised that the Gundams could use Trans-Am. The [00] Gundam was definitely one of the strongest machines that Seth had seen. He along with Ian were able to get the two GN drives to a synchronization rate of 79.34% just under the 80% operation zone. No matter what they tried it just wouldn't increase.
"Dammit!" Seth cursed as the duel GN drive wouldn't activate.
"Here I'll try and force an activation with Trans-Am." Setsuna who was current in [00].
"No! You could burn out the GN drives, dammit we've got no choice but to start calibrating from the beginning. Setsuna come back, were done for the day." Ian said as he started from point one again. Seth and Ian had started repairs on [Seravee], but they needed to wait for the parts to come in. In all the only mobile suit that celestial bing had to defend itself at the moment was [Stargazer]. They knew they needed more pilots. Setsuna headed towards earth to got pick up two crew members for celestial being.
Stella had became good friends with Feldt and Mileina. The three girls found themselves hanging out a lot and getting to know one another well. Stella joined [Ptolemaios II] technical crew. She was taught how to operate the weapon and defense system. Seth was glad that she was acting like a normal girl and that that she wouldn't be in the battlefield. Seth started to wonder how much time has passed since he disappeared from I.S. academy. Blaze and Flame told him not to worry about that and said that they were close to discovering a relic. They also told him that in a few days the GN drives would be finished and unlike [00]'s, [Stargazer]'s would nearly be perfectly synced with one another. They also said that they started to create GN particles instead of noise particles as they were stronger and easier to make. Suddenly something attacked [Ptolemaios II].
"What the hell?!" Seth said as he grabbed a nearby rail to support his body.
"Seth Fairs please report to the launch deck." A voice over the com said. A-Laws somehow discovered celestial being's location and launched an attack to destroy the mobile suits. Seth quickly got into [Stargazer] and launched.
Meanwhile.
Setsuna was currently traveling back to [Ptolemaios II] after retrieving Sumeragi Lee Noriega and Lyle Dylandy the younger twin brother of Neil Dylandy a former Gundam Meister that died four years ago. The two would be great additions to celestial being, but Sumeragi was doubting herself. She didn't think she could create effective plans for celestial being anymore after their downfall four years ago, but regardless Setsuna was bring her back. As they were traveling back, they could see several A-Laws mobile suits attacking [Ptolemaios II]. They saw [Stargazer] engaging the enemy mobile suits, but these had GN drives and could move fast. He wouldn't be able to protect [Ptolemaios II] by himself. Without any hesitation Sumeragi created a plan to fight back. [Ptolemaios II] fired a barrage of GN missiles that released mines. These were just to buy time so Setsuna could get to [00]. The mines helped Seth pushed the enemy back and allowing Setsuna to get into [00].
"I'm going to force [00] to activate with Trans-Am." Setsuna said.
"Setsuna wait." Ian said, but [00] started to glow red.
Seth looked at [Ptolemaios II] and saw a torrent of green GN particle gushing out. Soon they saw what was creating all the particles. [00] launched from [Ptolemaios II] and showed its capabilities. It quickly charged at a nearby [XIII] and brought out its dual GN blades. The blades cut the mobile suit like a hot knife through butter. The mobile suit also showed its advance mobility and Setsuna skill with the Gundam's firearms. It was powerful and left Seth in awe.
"This is the power of the dual GN drive." Seth said as he couldn't believe [00]'s power.
A Few Days Later.
With the new Lockon Stratos and Sumeragi along side with [Seravee] repairs being complete celestial being now had four active Gundam Meisters. Which means they could begin their interventions once more. As they were thinking of where to intervene first [Ptolemaios II] received a cryptic message telling the location of Allelujah Haptism, the last missing Gundam Meister. They knew they had to rescue him. Even though Sumeragi didn't have faith in her skills, she made a plan to rescue Allelujah. It was crazy, but it could work. As they were about to begin the operation Setsuna learned that Marina Ismail, Princess of Azadistan, which is struggling economically due to the UN's embargo on oil exports, was also being held there. If Setsuna had time he would rescue her.
Currently in Human Reform League-run prison complex Allelujah was currently restrain in a straight jacket. He looked like he'd been through quite an ordeal. Over the last few years he has had a lot of time to process his thoughts. Suddenly the alarms in the base started to go off.
Outside of the prison Kati Mannequin was currently in charge of the A-Laws forces defending the base. She is an incredible tactical forecaster and knew how to deal with an attacking enemy. Her ship detected celestial being's mothership arriving from the atmosphere and told her crew to aim here the ship should be. However when they fired they discovered that the shots missed. This could only mean one thing. The mothership wasn't slowing down, but that would mean.
"Oh crap! Quickly tell the mobi-" It was too late. [Ptolemaios II] dived straight into the water without slowing down. Her large mass and speed slamming into the water caused a Tsunami. The giant wall of water destroyed a large number of ground forces and mobile suits. Kati order her mobile suits to launch and any remaining suits to open fire towards celestial being's mothership. They were forced to use missiles as [Ptolemaios II] was protected by the fact that its underwater which drastically reduced the power of beam weaponry. Suddenly large numbers of A-Laws Mobile suits were being destroyed by pink and green beams. They turn to the source of the beams and saw four Gundams.
"Four of them, but the pilot of orange one is in the prison." This news was troubling as a new pilot joined Celestial being and they had no clue on his abilities, but it was clear that he wasn't a novice.
Seth didn't hold anything back as he opened fired on the enemy mobile suits. Setsuna quickly began his operation and entered the prison. [Stargazer] and [Seravee] began to cover the unpiloted [00] as Setsuna search for Allelujah. He eventually made his way to the missing Gundam Meister and also found Marina. [Ptolemaios II] launched [Arios] and it landed nearby Allelujah. He got into the new Gundam and took off. Setsuna made his return to [00] with the princess and launched. Now five Gundams were attacking the A-Laws forces. They forced the enemy units to run away. They returned to [Ptolemaios II] and left the battle zone.
A Few Days Later.
[Ptolemaios II] was currently traveling underwater to avoid being detected by A-Laws. Blaze and Flame finished [Stargazer]'s new GN drives that would work together, but it needed something to help stabilize the two GN drives. [00] also suffered from this problem and Ian started making plans for an add on to [00]. The [O Raiser]. He asked Seth to help make it and he started to work on it.
Seth was now adding [Stargazer]'s GN drives and he currently had one on. He started to work on the second one when [Ptolemaios II] was hit by several missiles.
"What the hell?!" Seth grabbed on to a rail to hold himself up. He quickly called the bridge to find out what was going on. Feldt answered him.
"Seth they're using chemical missiles. They've blocked [Ptolemaios II]'s launching pad." The chemical missiles released this strange substance that hardens very quickly and sealed [Ptolemaios II]'s launching pads.
Seth knew they the Gundams could launch if they open the hatch beneath them, but [Ptolemaios II] was far too deep for the Gundams to launch. Seth continued to work on the placing the second GN drive. Once it was on Seth jumped into [Stargazer] and waited to launch.
A-Laws once they discovered the location of Celestial Being's mothership they launched a new prototype mobile armor to destroy it. It was called [Trilobyte]. The massive mobile armor looked like a prehistoric trilobite, hence the name, but now after the missile barrage, [Trilobyte] used its lances to stab [Ptolemaios II], but this helped sped up the process of filling he hangers with water.
[Seravee] was the first to launch. Tieria used Trans-Am and pushed the large mobile armor off of [Ptolemaios II]. The mobile armor was hit by a barrage of pink beams by [Arios] and [Cherudim]. [Stargazer] slashed off the large lances with its beam sabers and [00] finished it off by slashing the cockpit killing the pilots.
"Setsuna, Seth grab on." Allelujah said as he transformed [Arios] into its jet form. [00] and [Stargazer] grabbed on to [Arios] and thanks to its aerodynamic shape, they traveled extremely fast through the water. Seth finally saw the color of the GN particles that [Stargazer] had, they weren't red or green, they were yellow. It was fitting considering the mobile suit in its awaken state had yellow fold out armor. The three mobile suits bursted out of the water and were engaged by A-Laws mobile suits.
[00] brought out its GN swords and slashed at the mobile suits. Setsuna used the GN swords rifle mode and opened fire on the nearby [XIII] units. Allelujah in [Arios] was firing at the enemy units, but without his alternate personality Hallelujah he wasn't as skilled. He was hit by several beams, but [Arios] stood strong.
"Dammit! I know its my skill that's at fault and not the machine's!"
"E-57, give yourself up." Soma Peries who was in an [Ahead] unit said. She had no clue that she too was once in the same super-soldier program as Allelujah. Her memories were fuzzy at best. Soma fired again at Allelujah, but [Stargazer] got in the way of the beams and blocked the attacks thanks to its reflector shields.
"Allelujah what's wrong?" Seth asked.
"I'm not as good as I used to be." Seth now brought out [Stargazer]'s beam sabers and slashed the legs of her [Ahead] off. Seth turned his head just in time to see another [Ahead] unit attack [00], but this one was different. The pilot of the machine was extremely skilled. He was so skilled that he could push back the [00] with the [Ahead] which was significantly less powerful.
"You're mine!" Mr. Bushido who was the pilot of the [Ahead] said as he was about to strike, but his beam sabers were net with another pair of beam sabers.
"You dare to interrupt my duel!" Seth was able to kick the [Ahead] creating some room and now returned to [00] side.
"Setsuna this one is tough."
"Yeah." Setsuna and Seth were about to launch an attack on the [Ahead] when a barrage of blue beams started firing on the A-Laws forces.
"Huh? Katharon?!" The groups turn their heads and saw a large group of Katharon mobile suit. They were firing at the A-Laws forces. The situation didn't look good for the A-Laws forces. They decided to retreat. The A-Laws' ship sent out the message to all mobile suits.
"Dammit. You will pay for ruining my duel, remember that kid!" Mr. Bushido said as he returned to the ship. The Gundam Meisters returned to the ship and now met with the Katharon forces that wanted to see Marina.
"Eh? Who wants to see me?" Marina said as she had never interacted with members of Katharon.
"It has been a while princess." A voice said. Marina couldn't believe her ears, but soon the source of the voice showed itself. Shirin Bakhtiar, who once serves as Marina Ismail's advisor and confidant now was a major member of Katharon.
"Shirin? You're a member of Katharon?" Marina was beyond shock that her long time friend who left mysterious a while ago was now a member of the anti-federal government Katharon.
A Few Days Later.
Celestial Being made their way into the Middle East along side with the Katharon forces to safely deliver Marina into their care. At the base they were treated like heroes. Stella with Marina played with the small children that Katharon took in. Seth was sad to see all these children who lost their parents thanks to the war. He wished he could do something for them, but he knew that there wasn't much he could do.
"Ne, Seth play with us." Stella said. She held up a toy block. Seth decided to join them. He couldn't believe that these poor children had to suffer a hard life thanks to A-Laws. He vowed to do something about it.
Saji crossroad was released from celestial being's custody. He was gladly taken into Katharon's care, but he wanted no part of that. He snuck out of the base while no one was watching. Of so he thought.
"Hey! What are you doing?!" A man's voice said. Saji fearfully turned his head to the source of the voice and saw a guard with a rifle.
"Well, I...ah."
"Wait you're with celestial being, aren't you?" The man said in a friendlier tone.
"Ah yes."
"So what are you up to?" The man said in a really friendly voice.
"Nothing really, just wanted to head to town to pick up some supplies."
"Here you'll need these." The man threw Saji a pair of car keys. "The nearest town is a few hours away by car. Go ahead and use this."
"Thank you." Saji said as he took the car. Saji couldn't believe it. This nightmare was almost over. All he had to do was to get home and none of this celestial being crap would be behind him. As Saji was driving through the desert a federation ship saw him and took him in because he looked out of place.
Marina decided she wanted to return to her country to try and end the state of conflict the country was in. Setsuna agreed to take her back and then return to celestial being. The other members of celestial being left the base to return to [Ptolemaios II]. Once the members of celestial being left things were quiet at the base.
During the later hours of the day a massive barrage of missiles attacked the Katharon base. Saji was interrogated, but when Sergei Smirnov promised the boy that no harm would come to him he began to tell him everything he's been through. Unknowingly someone overheard Saji's confession and reported it to A-Laws. Said group now had a mission to destroy the base and eliminate any members of Katharon.
The surprised missile bombardment destroyed a large number of the base's mobile suits. The still usable mobile suits launched and tried to engaged the A-Laws mobile suits, but they were clearly outmatched.
Celestial Being received a message telling about the attack on the Katharon base. The four available Gundam Meisters launched and rushed to the base. Once they arrived they saw that the Katharon force were losing badly. Lockon saw that A-Laws already released the Automatons and they were massacring anything in their way. [Cherudim] charged for the Automatons and ignored anything in his way. The A-Laws mobile suits tried to attack [Cherudim], but [Stargazer], [Seravee], and [Arios] blocked them. Soma focused her attention on Allelujah and Mr. Bushido who originally decided to stay out of the fight as he saw no value in killing civilians now joined the fight when the white Gundam appeared. Mr. Bushido in his [Ahead] charged at [Stargazer] with his beam sabers out.
"Damn this guy again!" Seth decided to hold nothing back after all the man wanted to fight someone strong so he might as well oblige. [Stargazer] entered its awaken state and now forced the [Ahead] unit back.
"Oh? You might be a worthy opponent yourself." Mr. Bushido said as he found something to enjoy. Seth however was not in a playing mood. He immediately entered Trans-Am and [Stargazer] began to glow red. Mr. Bushido was enjoying the fight. He was happy to fight a Gundam that pushed his skills to the very limits, but his machine could not keep up with him. Seth appeared behind the [Ahead] unit and slashed off the right arm. He now went for a finishing blow, but some of the [XII] units protected Mr. Bushido and allowing him to escape. Mr. Bushido knew he wasn't going to be able to put up a good fight with his current machine. It had to become strong and react after to him. He needed a new machine, but for now he had to upgrade his current one.
With A-Laws retreating, Celestial Being now checked on the Katharon members. It was horrible. The Federation Automatons spared no one that got in their path. They not only killed troops, but Civilians and Seth saw two small children, dead. He was just playing with them meer hours ago. They were laughing and enjoying the small pleasures that they had, and yet their lives were taken like a animal to a slaughter. He vowed to single handedly destroy A-Laws. Stella from the ship was viewing Seth's camera feed and when she saw the children's motionless bodies, she had a panic attack. It took nearly the entire crew in the bridge to stop her thanks to the super human strength that she started to get thanks to Seth's virus that saved her life.
