[IC] Mobile Suit Gundam - Those Who Correct - Crossover

[Sugihito]

Donna shook her head in all honesty to Puru. "I have nothing to say." She could only comment. "We do not have Celestial Being in my world. Only the Earth Sphere United Nation and the Falson Coalition." She thought about where Puru might be from. "Actually, I never got to ask you. Where did you come from?" She asked. "I know you have a history with Glemy but I never heard the full story." While she waited for an answer she observed the conversation between the Celestial Being girls and took another sip of her coffee. It was bitter as her childhood and she didn't bother adding sugar in.

[vancexentan]

"Uh that's a really long story really. I don't understand a lot of it and I'm really just a pilot. I'm a part of a group called the AEUG. The Anti-Earth Union Group. Apparently we were formed to fight a group of people called The Titans. Not much I can tell you about them. Remember them Zeon jerks Glemy led? Well I was a pilot for them before I found...Judau. It's hard to explain I just feel all warm and tingly around him. He made me feel safe and he didn't treat me like a weapon. He's a newtype just like Blackstar and Gabriel. But not like Nena or Reve. They feel...odd I guess you could say distorted like looking at a cyber newtype like me but with a glass mirror. But Judau...he's so so strong like uber strong! Maybe it's because he's a newtype that I'm drawn to him but it's something different. I don't feel that pull towards Glemy, or Paul, not even Gabriel. It's like he and I are connected I guess you could say. Anyways Glemy was having me pilot my Qubeley Mark Two for him testing it out and preparing to become a soldier for his mistress's Neo-Zeon. I don't know the details about it but I've been with Judau ever since that day I met him out in the battlefield. Not much else to say really. Sorry but I don't follow politics much and I really only like to hang out with Judau and his pals. That being said I'm willing to do the same for anyone here on this ship...minus a certain someone." Puru whispered to Donna telling her the truth and her feelings without so much as a hesitant thought.

[Zarkun]

Jack thought long and hard before answering, being fairly uncertain of how they'd react to his being a coordinator. "Well, I'm a first generation Coordinator in the Earth Alliance military. And that alone is a pretty big deal. Where I'm from, we're locked in a war the ZAFT and the colonies that joined them. The ORB Union had officially declared itself neutral, but I guess they were actually sympathetic to the EA cause. Anyways, ZAFT consists exclusively of Coordinators, who are, well, better at everything than Naturals. Better Gundam pilots, better ship pilots, just better over all. For a long time, it was a loosing battle for the Earth Alliance. ZAFT occupies most of Earth and they pretty much commanded the space battles. Then the G weapons, or our Gundams were finished. We lost most of them while they were on lay over on ORB, ZAFT stole them and destroyed the station, but we managed to keep the Strike with the help of a civvie. Also a first gen Coordinator. After that, things seem to start to turn around and even out. We reclaimed the Duel, which I pilot now, after a battle in which it was brought down."

Jack stopped talking long enough to take a few more bites and drink some of his water. "As for my enlistment story, some buddies and I were the lone survivors of one of ZAFT's bombing targets, wiped out our homes, our families, everything we knew and loved. So we enlisted to prevent it from happening again and to some revenge out of the deal. Of course, I was lucky to get in, between the anti-Coordinator bias and the Blue Comet terrorists."

[GreenGoat]

She reached out to pat Puru on the head when she said she didn't understand a word she said.

"Set...tsuna? Sumeragi did want to call me that when I first officially joined the group, but other than that, I have no idea who you are talking about." Well, there was that one time she had to use that moniker while she was laying low after that massive 3 front battle. "Heh, fancy me piloting that old thing. Well, if its me, I don't doubt I'd still be an ace regardless of how old that thing is. Well, after we first met after that 3 front battle in the Taklamakan desert,"Reve conveniently left out the part after where Nena practically tore off her helmet and kissed her, before realizing she wasn't a man, "We took to destroying all and every military installation on earth. After some discussion, and a few arguments, Tieria and I managed to convince the crew this would serve our goals faster. Haha~ We actually managed to finish our goals too; we had the entire army of earth come kill us."

"Ah... that battle was longer than the three front battle in the desert. That red haired person, Ali, was more trouble than I thought he would be too, like that Graham person."Reve grumbled. "In any case, I'm glad to have you here, even if I am not truly the one you knew."

[Sugihito]

Analysing the conversations, fully half of the women in the room are psychopaths. She wished the Sundown will find an opportunity to turn against them as they clearly were a threat. She will have to trust them that they will keep in line. "Puru, I can say you will be fine with us." She assured before whispering. "Probably not some people here though." Thinking about the girl, she was like a little sister to everyone in the Sundown. She sighed as she thought about the war in her world again and how she wishes for more level-headed people to be here.

[vancexentan]

"So ORB declared neutrality in your timeline? Strange a good portion of ORB was divided in the Three Months War. It was officially 'neutral' but they helped develop the gundams themselves from what Paul told me. He was apparently a part of the group that helped make them way back. That'd make him pretty young when he helped design them. Just keep that too us. I'd figure since you were a pilot of one yourself and an OMNI Soldier it'd be safe to let you in on that." Grant said to Jackson as he finished off his glass of water and stretched his hands out. "Man if you're a coordinator you may want to keep that quiet. We may not have anything officially against them but since the ZAFT Militia are coordinators they aren't well trusted. Whoever those blue comet dudes are I'd recommend telling Jason this. Well man it's been real but I want to get some rest. Just wanted to make sure you were comfortable. If you need something you can count on me." Grant said as he patted James on the shoulder before walking out of the cafeteria but not before putting his glass of water on the counter.

"Yeah you were pretty strong but that suit kept you held down. My brothers, and Allelujah always didn't trust you. Tieria held you in defense and Setsuna was neutral. Stratos didn't have much say being in the medical bay. Loser should've kept his eye on the birdy and maybe he wouldn't have ended so well. Well Graham, where ever he is now, is the rival of Setsuna in my timeline. Still feel stupid referring to things as 'different time lines' freaking hell." Nena said as Puru yawned loudly. "It's late I'm going to bed. I need my beauty sleep! I'll see you guys later." commented Puru as she got up to leave.

===

Paul and Beta Leader stayed to talk with Stella some more before leaving. In truth Beta Leader didn't fully trust Stella as she seemed off the rail back in the previous fight. It was only due to Paul's actions that she was spared. That and the timely intervention of that one guy. Paul assured him they needed all the help they could get and they needed to prepare for the battle but first they needed to take a quick nap. Paul had decided that he'd change in the room he shared with Jason. He could only wonder what the others were up to. He wanted to see his crew in a better state...he wanted to have a better situation for them all to go to. But at the end of the day. They were friends with this prissy girl called Mariemaia...and her crew of misfits.

[GreenGoat]

"Ou~! Good night~!" Puru's yawn was contagious; a moment later Reve was yawning herself.

"And speaking of my performance, of course I would be." She said. "I'm Celestial Beings. I should be an ace no matter what I pilot. Nena too, and the rest." Truth be told, she kinda missed Sumeragi screaming in her ear about the plan. Though she will never ever eat those pumpkins. Or tomatoes. That sickly sweet taste and the strange oozing feel of the insides felt like it was something from the Devil himself.

"Ah." Reve realized she had been silent for a quite a bit. "Sorry, I think I'm going to bed now. Good night."

[Sugihito]

Donna saw Puru take her leave and thought about taking a rest too. "I think I will go and sleep also." She said to the other girls as she waved goodbye. She figured that she can get some rest as she helped around the ship enough. After taking the elevators she returned to the quarters she was assigned to. The Gundam pilot dropped herself on the bed and stretched out, tired with today's events. "That is another day done." She said to herself. The longer she stayed here she began wondering when she will return to her timeline, but she made use of her time very well, interacting with the crew of the Sundown and over time became more sociable. One thing to note is not to take losses too heavily like the past few days as well. She thought about her home before letting herself sleep.

[vancexentan]

Paul sat down heavily in his bed wondering what the hell would happen if it really came to it and he had to fight Kyleson again. George...George used to be a friend of his...more than a friend. He was a brother to him and that day he turned...he took everything from him in a single moment. Paul closed his eyes and remembered the times they shared together. The days back when they went to school together, meeting again after a few years in OMNI, the days at Hawaii, The Battle of Washington, and finally that fateful day at London. The pilot of Aegis Gundam...and the man he hated more than anyone else in the world. But even so Paul couldn't help but dream about the days when they were kids back in space.

"Hey Paul come on! We're going to be late for school you loser!" George had shouted loudly into his ear as the red headed boy tugged at him viciously. "Come on you big dope! We're going to be late for school!" George was right and he knew that Paul wouldn't stop browsing the internet if he could help it. "Oh shut it already George it's not like we're going to be in trouble! Hey pops could you please give us a lift to school before George get's a heart attack!?" Paul asked his father who was sitting down writing down notes on what would become the Gundam Project. It had numerous other names but Paul himself preferred to call it the Gundam Project simply because it had been easier to say. His father was a scientist and had been working on a secret project to enhance the mobile suit designs that were quickly becoming faded pieces of war. The Zaku and other units were simply too outdated and he never wanted to get his father started on the Mobius units. He had a crack team of helpers too! It was such an interesting thing those suits! "I'm sorry Paul I can't but I can have Uncle Mario give you a ride if you'd like." said Paul's dad as he smiled back at him and George. "Nah I'll just walk in that case. George needs to lose weight anyway fatty!" Paul said punching George in the shoulder who in turn called him a daddy's boy. Paul and him argued back and forth all the way out of the house. But George was right about one thing. His dad meant everything to Paul. Without knowing who is mother was...well...life was hard. "Come on man I've seen broken down trucks move faster than you are!" Paul shouted to George who struggled to keep up with him. Being...who he was Paul was simply better at physical activities than George who was a normal dude. "You know I'd be able to keep up with you if you ran slower you jerk!" George called out to Paul as the two ran too the school that was so far away from their house.
===
When Graham entered his room he looked around and found it to be quite empty. With his new bed fellows just completely out of the picture Graham couldn't help but wonder what he'd do now. Jack found him repulsive and he didn't want to bother with Paul who was probably tired after his ordeal. He figured he'd not visit Stella until she was let out of that bed room of hers, and the others from Celestial Being made him want to gag. The only people he was interested in besides them were the good captain because he couldn't quite pin point it but he knew he felt something...strange about the man. Something hidden beneath the fine clothes and other assorted medals that adorned his usual clothes...something that made Graham afraid as if he was watching a caged mountain lion. Whatever it was Graham felt that everything around him was much different than it appeared. He supposed he could say this world was distorted to quote that boy Setsuna.

Timeskip - Preparations to Fight the enemy forces

Paul sat in the middle of the changing room after once again zipping up his ZAFT flight suit for the umpteenth time in days. The others of the crew were listening as Jason gave orders from the bridge. The short time the crew had to sleep really helped some more than others. After all they had been awake for an annoying amount of time as it was. Mariemaia said she was stationing her men on the opposite side of the field and would wait for the sound of combat to attack. Kenta was providing them with information acting as a communications officer for Mariemaia alongside her own soldiers and commanders. "All hands prepare for battle stations. Remember Group One will serve as a vanguard and group two will back them up. Group one is Black Star, Jack, Sigma Team, Nena Trinity, and Donna. Group two will consist of Graham, Reve, Puru, and Beta Squad. All hands prepare for battle stations the enemy is numerous and ready to fight with all of their passion I am sure! We have the surprise offensive don't let it go to waste!"

[Sugihito]

Donna heard her role for the battle announced as she waited at the hangar. She was in her uniform but forgone the jacket for a black tanktop due to the heat generated in movement. Also in her mind was how she has to keep an eye on Nena Trinity, distrusting her the most out of the group. It was no point to hide the Gundam Sandrock from Mariemeia as well as they did know about it, but she can show her skills with it for anyone that needs to be impressed from that side. She looked to find Instructor W preparing for inevitable Mobile Suit repairs with the Sundown's engineers, showing that everyone is busy here now.

[GreenGoat]

Again, she was in the sea of darkness, floating yet never suffocating. Again the angry red light came on, bathing the darkness in crimson. Her calm collected breath suddenly froze, as if she was finally feeling the effect of drowning. Again, the water suddenly receded, depositing her on a cold metallic floor.

"..malfunction...ne still alive... her?"

A cold voice spoke, as she looked up to the cold iron of a gun. "There's no need for that."

A noise like thunder reverberated throughout the room, the gun spitting fire as her hand moved instinctively.

***

"Ah.. they're sure taking their sweet time."

The dream was quickly forgotten after a few meals and the prospect of enemies to fight. Dreams are just dreams after all, and only one dream would be worth following; that of the old man who created Celestial Beings.

That being said, she'd never thought she'd be with Mr Flag over there. Reve thought he hated her, or whoever was piloting the Exia. But at the very least, she could see how he compared to the Graham of her world. Her blood was boiling at the mere thought of it.

[Zarkun]

Jack sat in the cockpit of the Duel, but had it open, listening to the team announcements as they were all reminded of them one last time. He had his suit unzipped down to the waist for the time being. Battle, a real battle with the enemies clearly defined, was a welcome change of pace from the hit and run tactics used against the Sundown and it's crew the last few days. He finally had something to hit, something solid, to aim his irritation at. Spotting the distrustful looks Donna was shooting Nena, he shook his head. At least one person would be more focused on watching their allies than the enemy.

[vancexentan]

"Are all connections clear for the Sandrock? I'm reading all green on Duel, Raigo, and the other suits over here." called out Engineer Yuri as he worked out the launching sequences sending data on who was launching where. In the other hanger the other suits were preparing to launch themselves. Graham and SIGMA were readying themselves for an all out brutal war and they knew that things were going to be bad for one side or another. Mariemaia's Army was more than likely not going to make this easy for the enemy by any stretch of the imagination. Surrounded...outnumbered...this was going to be something very bloody indeed. Or at the very least that's what Captain Jason Hiyan thought as he stroked back his sleek black hair. "Paul I need you to keep on the offensive as much as possible. But don't take too much time and don't take many hits. I know what're your capable of so try to make Mariemaia take the brunt of this if possible. We don't need to lose more men." commented Jason to Paul over the communications link set up between the two privately. "I've got this don't worry. I'm almost ready to launch just waiting on the others to green up." Paul commented as he prepared Raigo for launch. As usual he was hesitant about using energy before battle. Unlike his comrades he didn't have a battery he could throw away.

===

Mariemaia's Army had positioned themselves in the cliff face somewhere off to the western entrance to the enemy forces. Witz was chosen to lead the forces into battle despite being inexperienced as a commander which was made up for by the surprisingly helpful Kenta and Mareimaia's veteran officers. Twelve of the Serpent Class Mobile suits and the others they brought along with them. Airmaster sat on top of a cliff overlooking and scanning the enemy base. "Those bastards are ready for an attack..." commented Witz as he took a look at the enemy suits positioned at the gates and the air base hangers where there certainly was enemy MS stored if not soldiers. It looked like it would be one hell of a struggle. "I trust that you will all do as commanded...with or without our new allies we need to move forward and flank the enemy hard. Don't break from the attack just drill right through them. Blunt force combined with speed is essential in this battle." Kenta said as one of Mariemaia's officers named Jacob ordered his Serpent units to prepare to advance as soon as their allies got the signal.

[GreenGoat]

"Reve Niens. Exia launching off."

Again, she would face her enemies, whether they outnumber her or not wasn't in her knowledge. Except this time, with only Nena as a trustworthy friend and comrade, and that was saying a lot since Nena gets kinda overexcited sometimes. Was there even a strategist among these people? She kinda wished Sumeragi was here right now. She'd even endure all those nagging about her conduct and habits. But she still won't eat those baby tomatoes no matter what. Those are horrid enough to be classified as torture.

"This brings back memories. Kinda like the old times, right Nena?" She spoke through the commlink.

While this wasn't the first time she was fighting in this place, it was the first time she had someone she trusted, so she was in high spirits.

[Sugihito]

Instructor W nodded at Yuri's question on the Sandrock. "Sandrock's systems are go." He replied. While Donna slept earlier he took the time to familiarise himself with the schematics of the Slaughter Dagger for later repairs. Working with the Sundown reminded him that they came a long way to trust each other now. He hoped Donna has the same luck.

Donna made sure her Sandrock was fully online and adjusted her helmet. From what she heards about the Mariemeia Army from the Instructor, her father should not be in part of the forces due to his age old enough to sire her in their timeline. She hoped the Lindemann family there has a better future. Her mind also had to be prepared for a bigger slaughter in minutes and she took a deep breath to calm herself. "Just stay on the offensive." She whispered to herself. "The Sandrock can withstand most attacks and I am experienced enough."

[Zarkun]

Finishing up the last of his personal checks for Duel, Jack sighs and zips up his suit the rest of the way and puts on his helmet, closing the cockpit to Duel. "This is Lieutenant Jack piloting Gundam Duel. I am all clear and ready for launch." Leaning back in the pilot's chair, he waits for his next set of orders, especially the ones to launch. He was ready for this game of cat and mouse to come to an end and for them to finally get shit done.

[PandaBrady]

Captain Mask stood above his mobile suits toilet, awaiting for a call to start the next operation.
"These factions." He started as he wiped his hands. "I assume an alliance is best in the current situation." He then flushed the excrement down as he shut the seat of his mobile suit.
"But that Girl Mariemaia, on my honor as a Kuntala, she'll be a dictator when everything is done."
He then sifted through files in his mask as he thought about the other authorities back in his world.
"Manny, I wish you were here. That will keep me fighting no matter what. To get back to you." He said as he turned around and sat in his cockpit.
"This is Captain Mask. Any update on the operation? My Elf Bullock is still outfitted with its mega boosters, I can reach the enemy forces quickly if needed." He said over coms."
"Tch, a bunch of archaic museum pieces being used as weapons. Still hard to believe everything going on." He thought to himself.

[Arthanus]

Gabriel had mostly recovered from his sprain and still had a light limp. That being said he stood next to the GX ready to deploy as back-up support if needed. "You sure you want me on Standby sir?" Gabriel asked through his helmet's comm system, "I might not be 100% but I could at least go out and provide some support fire." he commented not exactly liking not being in the action, but understanding the Captain's concerns. But at the very least Gabriel could of been allowed up to the bridge to have some sort of view of the battle and possibly help with a strategy or two. But until he was told otherwise he was on standby and would wait for orders.

[vancexentan]

"This is James don't go to far out Reve if they spot us out ambush is ruined. We don't have the luxury to screw up." Axer said to Reve as soon as he cleared the launch. Paul was supposed to launch first but since apparently Reve was in such a hurry to leave he'd figured he may as well just let her out. "I'm going. This is Black Star in Raigo preparing for launch sequence!" Paul said calmly as he flipped his switches on and turned on his suit's systems. He didn't have his flight pack equipped this time around and instead chose his Sumbullet pack for longer range shots to peg down enemy suits that were in the way. He still didn't like the fact that he couldn't get in closer but they didn't know what was in there. If someone else wanted to risk their lives in close quarters that was their problem. "I just want to get this over with..." Williams confided in Paul as he nodded at her face on the screen in front of him. "Yeah I get that. How's working with the night crew going?" Paul asked as Williams looked to the left and right of her quickly and whispered to him that it was weird but not all that bad. With Baker in standby and Calhone resting that left them with Sargent Wilks and Corporal Manderly. Both of them handled well enough but it didn't feel as natural as having their normal crew. The helmsman from the night shift was also here as well. "Just get through it and we can all rest. Assuming Mariemaia doesn't back stab us." Paul said as suddenly Graham's face appeared on his screen, "I'm trusting your judgment on this battle Lieutenant. I enjoy a good fight but brutally slaughtering people like this is not something I condone." Graham simply stated before turning off his link. Paul understood where he was coming from but in the end a battle was a battle for Black Star Paul Lyons. He felt the usual push of the catapult as he was sent flying into the air before landing heavily on the ground.

"I hope you're ready for this kid. This battle ain't going to be a walk in the park and I don't need your pansy ass weighing me down." Nena said to Jack with snark in her voice and a grin. She clearly didn't think too much of Jack apparently hearing what he said to Graham earlier. "I'm going to fucking blow up those snobs so if you can't take it cover your eyes and pretend it ain't happening got it? Or am I going to get preached at by a soldier that fighting is wrong?" Nena continued as Beta Leader told her to knock it off immediately. "Bite my new gundam's shiny metal ass soldier man I don't take orders from you."

Jason sighed as he heard the voice of Gabriel coming through the com telling Wilks to put it through to the screen, "You know I told you that you should be resting Mr. Gabriel. Wilbur told me that you still aren't in a good state to walk. If you get shot down you're screwed for lack of a better term. I also didn't calculate you into the plan so you'll be going with Team 1 if you insist on continuing with this mission." said Jason as he sighed. He was exasperated he tried his best to not make Gabriel go but he insisted on doing so. Stella had even vouched for him saying a true soldier fights even when backed into a corner and that despite Gabriel's injury he could tell by the way he talked that he was a soldier through and through. "Come on Mr. Jason you can't still be complaining can't you? We need all the help we can get! Besides if he get's shot down I'll save him. In case you forgot I'mma newtype too! I can feel the need of all the newtypes around us. Mr. Blackstar's will to keep fighting, Gabriel's resolve, and even the enemy down there! I feel weird they're like newtypes too but they're different." Puru said as she suddenly appeared on the screens of both Jason and Gabriel. "Can they feel us too Puru?" Jason asked suddenly apprehensive but Puru said she didn't know and probably not after all this whole world felt distorted too her so maybe she was wrong about the others down there. Jason narrowed his eyes...distorted? Was that how it felt? That was worth considering but for now he had a battle to fight.

"Gotcha send Sandrock to the launcher! Blackstar just launched so it's your turn!" Yuri commented as he cleared the others suits saying everything was green for everyone. "Hey Donna break a leg out there! More importantly break their legs and make sure everyone gets out alive. I'm counting on you to make things count out there. Sandrock may not look like much but I always like an underdog!" Yuri said to Donna offering a thumbs up from his place in the consoles near the suits.

"You know Mr. Mask Dude you're weird, no offense but could you just talk normally?" Witz said as he turned Airmaster around to look at Captain Mask. "I know that you're different and all but hey as long as you're good in a fight I don't mind you covering me. Just watch out for Airmaster's guns." Witz continued as Kenta grunted out that they should cease the chatter. "Look I'm getting confirmation from Private Lowell that the others are launching on the other side of the area. The enemy is the same suit we've been fighting since we got here. Those suits that resemble Leos but with different faces and sleeker bodies. Remember they're armed with beam weapons and they're extremely dangerous. Proceed as soon as you see the shot from our allies. Our other team is proceeding as planned over in the southern border. Let's just hope they don't see us. It's still a shame I can't join you out here but such work is not in need of my expertise just yet." Kenta commented referring to the firepower equipped on his odd gundam back at base.

[Zarkun]

Jack growled at Nena. "Just make sure you do your damn job. Far as I'm concerned, you're a civvie with the necessary experience. Meaning you wouldn't be here if you weren't convenient and experienced. Now focus on the fight in front of you and don't shoot your allies. I imagine there's a number of people looking for an excuse to shoot you." He cut the channel to her and drew his beam rifle, turning on his Phase Shift armor on while waiting for his turn. "The hell did I do to her anyways..."
