Paul, and George were closing up on the latter's ship as Paul looked at it using his secondary cameras he couldn't help but feel how similar the damn thing was to the Sundown...minus the sheer size difference. The Sundown was essentially a super carrier class Archangel, while George's ship was more over assault class ZAFT cruiser. [color=ed1c24]"This is Kyleson calling on the bridge. Let us aboard I'm with Raigo. if anyone hurts Lyons they have to answer to me."[/color] growled George over his communications device as Lyons prepared the docking procedure that he usually went through. As he landed he looked through the vastly smaller hanger than what he had been use to and saw a number of ZAFT pilots going back and forth here and there. As he walked over to one of the mobile suit walkways he put George down on top of it and then brought Raigo over into an empty pot and began to power it down but not before activating a systems lock to prevent anyone from using it without his password. [color=ed1c24]"Get out of the god damn thing we got to hurry Charlie on the bridge tells me that Lao's getting his men ready for a big push."[/color] George shouted as Paul tried to exit his suit however he found it was jammed as such he had to manually override, and force open the hatch with his hands before exiting onto the walkway he looked at George for the first time in years face to face. George was wearing a stripped purple OMNI uniform, and Paul was still swearing his black ZAFT uniform he had been keeping as a trophy. [color=ed1c24]"Oh shit I forgot you even wore that suit."[/color] George said in surprise as Paul frowned deeply and George took the hint as a group of soldiers ran over with rifles. [color=ed1c24]"Hold fire! If anyone of you shoots him I'll have your balls in a blender by the end of the day. He's an enemy pilot but he's the best one those fuck boys over at OMNI has. Have you guys powered up Freedom, and Justice?"[/color] asked George as Paul looked at the soldiers with unease he couldn't help but feel helpless gazing at the vast amount of people aiming weapons at him. A lot of them looked unhappy about the whole ordeal. [b]"Fucking hell I can't believe it's come to this Kyleson but yeah you're damn test suits are ready."[/b] one of the soldiers growled as George grabbed Lyons's shoulder and made him look at him. [color=ed1c24]"You see the suit over there? It has a nuclear reactor core. That one will be your suit. Consider it a trusting gift from me to you. The suit has a number of weapons on it but I had to disable it's auto lock-on systems just to make sure these people don't get even more pissy about me giving you the thing. Look bring it back after this, and I'll see about giving Raigo back to you got it?"[/color] George said hastily as Paul's eyes widened. [color=0072bc]"You fucking retarded? NUCLEAR?! That's a violation of the treaty!"[/color] Paul growled as George shook his head. [color=ed1c24]"Not my call only found out about these things when they told me to transport them to a military base. Look just get in the fucking thing, and I'll take it's twin. Together we can force back the enemy units. After that we can talk things over."[/color] George said as he rushed off as Paul frowned and made a move forward towards his own mobile suit. Paul frowned as he looked entered the strange new machine. As he began to turn on the systems he was greeted with a fucking ZAFT OS as he inwardly cringed at the fact that he was now inside a nuclear powered ZAFT mobile suit. Paul's systems were already tuned into the correct channel as various voices of soldiers he didn't recognize chimed in. Paul heard George's voice not too soon after as he explained the needed to reinforce, and push through the southern point which had been taken. If they took much longer then they would push and attack the command ship. [color=0072bc]"I don't take orders from ZAFT bastards Kyleson. Lyons preparing to launch in Gundam....Freedom was it?"[/color] Paul asked as a grey haired young woman appeared on his screen. [b]"Nadia here I'm the bridge operator for this ship. OMNI Lieutenant Paul Lyons you are cleared for launch. Good hunting."[/b] the woman said with a firm nod which Paul already felt weird about. He was so use to Baker's voice telling him where to go. [color=0072bc]"It's like I'm in the fucking twilight zone..."[/color] growled Paul as he made his way through to the hanger's launcher. Paul checked over his weapon systems and found that Freedom was a walking machine of death. If this thing was unleashed on the alliance...they'd destroy everything. Not even all of their gundams together could hold off a machine like this. Who the hell made it!? [color=0072bc]"Lyons reporting launching in Freedom Gundam."[/color] Paul felt the g-forces pushing on him as he launched forward and he flew south and soon after he launched George was following him. Paul put in his own force's radio communications link. [color=0072bc]"Lyons reporting in. I'm in a ZAFT experimental suit. Will get to that later engaging Lao's men."[/color] Paul said as Baker gave him a confused confirmation. Hearing her voice made Lyons feel a little better about this whole situation. [color=f26522]"You're such an obnoxious little boy...but I suppose you know that already am I correct? I don't think you understand though I'm out of your league."[/color] Jason said with a smug grin as the enemy gundam tried desperately to keep up with the sudden on slaughter of beam shots coming from the dragoons. With all of the enemy suits going to and forth now as the allied units consolidated their efforts and were now pushing back the enemy suits. [color=fdc68a]"How in the world is there a machine this strong? Of course I know that Barbatos isn't the strongest but this is just ridiculous."[/color] Mikazuki said as he desperately tried to back up only to have his left hand blown off, and his right shoulder severely damage. While Mikazuki was dodging Jason had been carefully lining up his dragoons out of range of the enemy gundam, and purposely making some of the more prominent than others. He had snuck around two dragoons and managed to get Mikazuki into an extremely awkward situation now. [color=f26522]"Will you surrender or is it death for you?"[/color] Jason said flatly as he aimed Providence's rifle down at the enemy suit. [color=fdc68a]"No this is just a distraction."[/color] grumbled Mikazuki as Jason frowned confused then it clicked in Jason's mind just what he had meant. He dodged just barely in time as he aimed his rifle into the air. A red mobile suit came flying at him and shot at the dragoons but they managed to dodge guided by Jason's deft piloting skill even if he was rusty he was still as good as ever it seemed. [color=ed145b]"Well if it isn't my old friend Jason Hiyan!? It is you isn't it? Or did they find someone new to replace me in that garbage heap I use to pilot. Or are you calling yourself by a different name now Jason? Whatever the case it's time for you to die old friend. Mikazuki retreat for now would you? You such a pitiful sight."[/color] grumbled the voice of Lao La Lugara as he fired his other weapon, a beam gun, from his shield arm forcing Jason to detach himself from the now retreating enemy pilot. [color=f26522]"Lao you traitorous cad I will end you!"[/color] Jason shouted as he fired upon Lao who dodged it with practiced ease and the two began to circle into the air firing at each other both of them dodging each other in a waltz of energy beam fire. [color=f49ac2]"This is Baker....do you guys read me? Look...a lot just went on but I'm still needed here so listen up Williams tells me that they're shooting from an undisclosed location from your area. Lieutenant Lyons....Paul will be helping you soon once he finishes off his current field if all thing go right. For now they're dispatching the orange gundam which fought Graham to your location. Finish off, or force the enemy sniper to retreat if you don't Hiling will be stuck in the center until further notice. If you need my help...I'm here for you."[/color] commented Lacus as she quickly sent both Sara, and Jack a map of the area showing that there were enemy zakus detected in the area and that the shots had come from somewhere in the small city area. There were plenty of destroyed buildings around however so the suit may be hiding in one of the destroyed structures.
