((MO-2))
A scene of Dekim and soldiers in front of
a large screen and consoles appears.
Soldiers:
The Preventer cruiser has changed course.
Dekim: So they’ve
realized what’s happening. No matter, they’ll
be too late by the time they arrive at this satellite. <unfolds his arms, motions towards a
soldier> Send out the Serpent troops at once!
Soldier: Um…they’re on
vacation.
Dekim: WHAT?! What idiot authorized that?
Soldier: Actually…you
did, sir.
Dekim: YOU WILL
RESPECT YOUR ELDER, LAD! I WAS GIVING
HIGH-RANKING COMMANDS BEFORE YOU WERE EVEN BORN! NOW FIND A TROOP AND SEND IT OUT NOW!
The soldier cowers in fear.
Soldier: Mommy…
The gates open, and MS cruisers are
deployed. However, an unidentified suit
flies straight towards the satellite just as this is done.
Soldier: Unidentified
mobile suit ahead!
Dekim: What?!
Soldier: I said:
“Uniden—”
Dekim: I heard what
you said, boy, I’m not deaf!
The image on the screen is magnified
greatly, revealing…
Soldier: It…it’s the
Tallgeese!
Dekim: Thank you,
Captain Obvious. Could it be
Treize? No, he’s dead…must be
Zechs! Wait…wasn’t he dead, too?
Soldier: The Tallgeese
is coming for us!
Dekim: Don’t be
ridiculous; what makes you say that?
The Tallgeese flies up to one of the
carriers; the eyes of the suit are seen glaring in the windows of one
part. The soldiers scream in shock…
Soldier 5:
That! What do we do now?!
Soldier 6:
DIIIIEEEEE! AAAAHHHHHHHH!
…as the sword is used to blast
though. He then blows up other
carriers, and slices through a part of MO-2 before pulling back.
Zechs: My hunch was
correct. I guess there’s still a place
for a man who can’t get used to peace.
Soldier: The Serpent
suits can’t fight back wearing their atmospheric shielding devices!
Soldier 2:
Should remove them?
Dekim: No need for
that.
The soldiers stare at him.
Dekim: Just look.
He points to the screen, where a few suits
managed to tiptoe past the Tallgeese, giggling. But then, Zech’s face appears.
Zechs: This is Preventer
Wind.
Dekim: ANOTHER
name? Geeze…could you, ya know, make up
your MIND at some point? Kids these
days with all these nicknames and junk.
In MY day, people had only ONE name, and if they ever forgot it, well
than that was their problem…wait a sec; I thought you were dead!
Zechs: That’s right, I
was. But I find that I can’t sleep in
my grave while Treize’s spirit still roams around…
Cut to outside. The Ghost of Treize is seen wandering around aimlessly.
Trieze’s Ghost:
War is beautiful…battles are valiant…the only thing we have to fear are
girlfriends and Chinese fifteen-year-olds with big swords…
Zechs aims his tuning-fork weapon towards
the satellite.
Zechs: I heard about
you from Quinze.
Dekim: And what do you
have to say about that?
Zechs: Your autograph
or your life!
Dekim: <smugly>
Go ahead; shoot us if you dare.
Zechs: What?
Dekim: You’ll NEVER
get my autograph! You hear me, NEVER!!!
Zechs: Damn you!
Dekim: I suppose
Quinze also told you I was the one who created Operation Meteor…
Zechs: X…X18999…
A brief shot of the colony, and balancing
mechanisms is seen, all under Dekim’s complete control.
Dekim chuckles evilly.
Dekim: We can drop
that colony any time we wish.
Interfere, and that’s just what we’ll do!
Zechs growls in annoyance.
Dekim: Drop your
weapons and surrender! Unlike Quinze, I
have no intention of inviting you to be our leader. I’m not that stupid. But
I’ll consider you as a soldier under Marimemaia…
Zechs: *blink* Why
would I do that, when I could just shoot you now?
Dekim: …the colony?
Zechs: Oh
yeah…damn…well, in that case, I’m just going to sit here and stall until the
other Gundam pilots prevent the colony’s instability.
Dekim: Okay. Take your time.
In the background, more MS carriers head
towards Earth, passing through the atmosphere.
Wufei’s Altron stands on the satellite,
waiting, before taking off. A shuttle
inside MO-2 blasts off into space.
Wufei follows it towards Earth.
Wufei: Now, Earth…show
me what your true idea of justice is.
The clouds in the atmosphere seem to come
together for a brief moment, spelling out “NO”
((Relena/Mariemaia))
Relena turns to Mariemaia in shock.
Relena: Weren’t we just
in a helicopter before? How’d we get
into an airplane?
Mariemaia:
Off screen, sometime while Dekim was talking about dropping the colony onto
Earth…
Relena: …dropping the
colony onto Earth?!
She grabs Mariemaia by the shoulders.
Relena: Stop this at
once! There’s no reason to do that!
Mariemaia calms removes her hands before
answering.
Mariemaia:
Relena. Please calm down before you
have a heart attack. There’s no reason
for me to do that as long as all of mankind bows before me.
Relena: Bows before
you? *blink* …and people think I’m
spoiled!
Mariemaia:
<ignoring her> And in your role as the former Queen Relena, you’ve
entrusted me with the highest position of the Earth’s Sphere?
Relena: …I have?
Mariemaia:
Yes, you have. As the Vice Foreign
Minister, you’re trusted by the colonies.
You have a must greater level of influential power over the people than
even you realize yourself. You could
tell them to do anything! You could
make ‘em crawl, you hear me? Crawl!
Relena: This is who
I’ve trusted the colonies with?
Waitasec… that’s why you abducted me!
Mariemaia:
Now you’ve got the picture.
Finally. I’m sure most of the
audience figured it out before you did.
Relena: Well, I’m sure
most of the audience has seen this movie at least ten times.
Not to mention, own both the VHS and DVD
versions of it…*wink*
((Quatre))
Quatre is seen in one of the control
rooms…only…it’s steamy…and he’s sitting on a wooden bench in the back…and…he’s
wearing a towel around his waist…and nothing else…damn, does he work out or
WHAT?
Quatre: They were
right! It is like a big sauna!
Pouring a little more water on the coals
to his right, he gets up, types a few commands on the computer, and manages to
speed up the generators.
The next shot has him back in the space
uniform, much to the dismay of fangirls everywhere. He quickly gets to…er…a safe place…
Wall: Why don’t you
just say it, hmm? HE DUCKS BEHIND
ANOTHER WALL! That’s all I am to you;
just a shield from explosions! I used
to be famous! The infamous fourth
wall…*sniff*…look at me now…
…and pushes a button, blowing up a side of
the block. This causes it to begin
turning around. He starts to countdown,
keeping a close watch on the mini-computer on his watch.
Quatre: 5…4…3…This is
even better than the Jetsons…
Another push of the button, and he blows
up the generators, propelling the satellite back towards Earth.
Quatre: Well, it should
get a bit cooler now…
Sandrock:
<grimaces> damn…
((L3-X18999))
Alarms go off as explosions follow right
behind retreating soldiers. Duo and
Heero run through, carrying guns and heading towards the colony control room.
Trowa (narrating):
Operation Meteor. That’s what they
called Gundams’ decent to Earth.
Heero pauses briefly, but shakes his head
and continues on. Heero and Duo run
down a hallway, only to be stopped by more soldiers shooting at them. They duck and shoot back.
Trowa (narrating):
But it was initially something completely different. The rotation of a colony is increased. Then the balancing mechanism is destroyed at La Grange, hurling
the colony towards Earth. As this
causes chaos on Earth…
Duo tosses a grenade at the soldiers,
distracting them. He motions for Heero
to follow, but then he notices his fellow pilot rocking in a pilot, curled in a
fetal position.
Duo: …Heero?
Heero: The voices are
back…make them stop…
Rolling his eyes, Duo grabs his arm and
pulls him forward.
Trowa (narrating):
…the Gundams are sent to take over.
That’s the general outline of the original Operation Meteor. Personally, I think our way was better,
wouldn’t you say?
Trowa is looking up information on another
console, just as Heero and Duo burst in…to be greeted once more by their foe
just before entering. When the door
shuts behind them, they cease running.
Soldiers lie unconscious on the floor, and Trowa sits with his back to
them.
Trowa: Whoops…too slow.
Duo: <scratches
the back of his head> How does he do
that?
Trowa: Well, are you
going to just stand there all day, or are you going to help?
Heero and Duo each head towards a
computer.
Heero: <typing>
We’d better hurry. Looks like they’ve
started sending in troops to Earth.
Duo: I can’t seem to
break the final lock. We’ll have to
reconnect the lines directly.
Heero: Don’t act like
you know what you’re talking about.
You’re not fooling anyone.
Trowa: Many friends
that I worked with are on this colony.
When I realized Dekim’s plans were really the original Operation Meteor,
this is the only way I could think of to stop him.
Duo: <rolls his
eyes> It’s ALWAYS the only way you
could think of. What about Wu Fei? Is he in on it too?
Heero: No, he hates
roundabout approaches.
Trowa: ‘sides; no one
posing undercover as a soldier would possibly ever kiss up the way he does.
The trio type a bit more, and succeed in
completed their mission.
Heero: Mission
Complete.
Duo: <over
intercom> This is Duo.
((Sally/Noin))
Noin: No shit,
Sherlock. We’ve been paying attention.
Sally spins round and round on the chair
next to her.
Sally: Whoo! This thing goes fast!
Noin:
<sweatdrops> Well, I have, at least.
3 minutes later…
Sally abruptly stops spinning at the chair
to stare at Duo in shock.
Sally: Are you series?!
Noin: You guys
stopped Operation Meteor?!
Duo (v/o):
cool, ne?
((Zechs))
He points his tuning-fork thingy at the
satellite.
Zechs: <over
intercom> This is Wind. I’m
destroying MO-3!
Une (v/o):
Then shut up and do it already!
As Zechs fires, a shuttle is seen escaping
just in the nick of time. Dekim is
inside.
Dekim: Missed me!
Missed me! Now you gotta kiss me!
Zechs: Damnit!
Une (v/o):
Now, see, this wouldn’t have happened if you had just shot the damn thing when
you were supposed to.
((Trowa/Heero/Duo))
The three Gundam pilots are all sitting on
the floor, sharing a bowl of popcorn.
Their attention is fixed on an object off-stage, which (when we swing the
camera around) is shown to be a television set, broadcasting the entire last
scene.
Duo: Aha! So THAT’s how we know what’s going on…
Trowa watches as Dekim flies away, just as
Zechs blows up the satellite.
Trowa: We were too
late. I told you guys to get here
sooner!
Heero: At least we
were able to save the colony.
Trowa: Yeah, you just
keep telling yourself that.
From Outside:
We have you completely surrounded; come out with your hands up…and the popcorn.
Trowa: It’s over.
The console Duo was sitting at beeps. Duo gets up and walks over to it, smirking
when he sees what it is.
Duo: Not quite. I got some mail from Quatre.
Quatre’s face appears on the screen.
Quatre: Quatre,
here. I’ve just redirected the
resources disposal satellite toward Earth.
It should reach the Earth’s orbit within twenty-four hours. This message will self-destruct in sixty
seconds.
Heero: Duo, send
Quatre a message. Tell him to send
Wing-ZERO in the HES-88 direction.
Duo: Aww, do it
yourself!
Heero glares, pretending like he didn’t
hear that.
Heero: I’ll…pick
up…Wing-ZERO…in…space. You got
that? It’ll save time.
Outside, the soldiers are trying to open
the door by means of pounding on it with their fists, to no avail.
Soldier 1:
It’s not opening; what do we do?
Soldier 2:
I’ve got an idea. Hey, Steve!
A very tall, but thin soldier walks over.
Steve: Aww, do I have
to?
Soldier 2:
YES!
Steve begins stretching out. First his legs, then his back, and finally
his shoulders. He then takes a couple
of aspirin and puts on a helmet. The
others grab him and use him for a battering ram.
Steve:
<thinking> At least I get to use a helmet this time…
Trowa: You can take
the shuttle in the fourth hangar…you know, right next to the third hanger.
Heero: Duo, I have
another favor.
Duo: ANOTHER
one?! I’m still walking funny after the
last “favor” you asked me…
Heero: Hit me, baby,
one more time.
Duo: <eyes
wide> Have you gone crazy?! …don’t answer that.
From Outside:
That does it! Somebody get the
blowtorch!
Heero: <to
Duo> Hurry up!
Duo: Okay, but
remember: you asked for it! <crackles knuckles> I’ll give you my best
punch!
Punches Heero in the face, just barely
fazing him but creating a mark on his cheek.
Heero: … that’s
you best punch?
Duo: Er…
Heero groans slightly, but responds with a
blow to the stomach, catching Duo off guard.
Duo: What the…?!
Heero: For our own
good. That’s one for one.
Duo collapses in Heero’s arms, evoking
happy sighs from 1x2x1 fans everywhere.
He then hands Duo off to Trowa…
Heero: Take him; he’s
heavy!
Trowa:
<sarcastically> Oh, thanks a lot!
…before lying face-down on the
ground. In the next moment, the
soldiers finally break the door open—Steve aimlessly walking in, dizzy—to the
scene Heero intended to set.
Trowa: <to
soldiers> Don’t worry. I’ve taken care
of them <hands Duo to one of the soldiers> But we…I mean…they prevented
the colony’s instability.
While the soldiers are temporarily focused
on Trowa, Heero gets up and dashes for the door. The soldiers fire, but it’s too late: he escapes.
Heero: <as he
leaves> You’re uniforms are stupid…!
Trowa looks on in the background, a faint
smile on his face.
Trowa:
<thinking> Suckers…
*BOOM!*
The soldiers stand around, blinking
cluelessly at one another as the self-destruct message blows up in their faces,
toasting them charcoal-black.
((Zechs/Noin))
Rubble floats about as Zechs calm sits
inside the Tallgeese, reading a book.
Zechs: Hmm…not only
does Spot run, but Spot runs fast! Intriguing…<turns the page>
Noin quietly heads towards where he’s
floating.
Noin: Zechs…
An image of Treize’s ghost floats by.
Image of Treize’s Ghost:
<sing-songy> He’ll he so-rry!
In the Tallgeese, Noin’s face comes on the
viewscreen, but Zech’s face is still obstructed from her by the book.
Zechs: Is that you,
Noin?
*pause*
Noin: YOU PUT THAT
BOOK DOWN AND LOOK ME STRAIGHT IN THE EYE RIGHT NOW!
Zechs: *gulp* Yes,
dear.
Zechs puts the book down, looking at the
screen with a combination of love, guilt…and fear.
Zechs: Um…how’ve you
been?
Noin: Don’t you try
to change the subject, mister. You’re
in enough trouble as it is. Do you have
ANY idea how long I waited for you?!
ONE YEAR AND TWO DAYS! Over
twelve months of thinking you were gone and ALL THIS TIME YOU WERE ALIVE! Oh,
you are sooooo sleeping in the doghouse tonight, buster.
Zechs: Yes, dear.
<thinking> I should’ve stayed dead…
Noin continues to fly towards the
Tallgeese. The faint sounds of her
ranting, and an occasional “Yes, dear.
Sorry, dear.” are heard in the background.
((Earth))
Citizens look up towards the sky as snow
falls.
Citizen: Damn
weatherman…saying it wouldn’t snow…
La-dee-da-dee-doe, hmm-hm-hm-hmm…hmm? Oh, sorry; it’s been a while. Christmas, After Colony 196.
Citizen (v/o):
No, duh!
A scene of various MS floating down on
parachutes appears briefly.
Mariemaia’s collective group of voluntary
fighting forces has succeeded in apprehending the Presidential Residence of the
present Earth Sphere United Nation…*blink* Waitasec; first, it was Unified,
now United? I wish you people
would make up your minds…unless, during the course of one day, ANOTHER alliance
formed. I wouldn’t put it past ‘em….
Dekim steps out from the White House
building, and looks upward towards the sky.
As the frozen precipitation maintains its
descending,…
The shuttle containing Mariemaia and
Relena flies through the Earth’s Atmosphere.
…the serene tranquility on earth has
ceased, proceeding one annual cycle.
Wing-ZERO is ejected from the disposal
block, courtesy of Quatre.
Wing-ZERO:
A shot in the dark is not to say that all in darkness is a shot.
Deathscythe (v/o):
Dear lord, make it STOP!
And the Preventers, presently the only
relational resource, were merely lacking in the strength and skill to indulge
in the action of ceasing such a means of attack.
A guy in the third row of the audience
stands up and points.
Guy In the Third Row:
Ha ha! You guys SUCK!
Red lights in L3-X1…aww, you know which
colony…go off as Heero steals a spaceship and blasts off with it…incinerating
that guy in the third row.
Music starts playing somewhere in the
background.
[As
long as we can look each other in the eye and understand]
Heero (v/o): AHH! NOW THEY’RE SINGING!
Sally is flies towards the Earth in her
shuttle. Simultaneously, Zechs and Noin
land on Earth, with Une standing by to meet them. Zechs blows open the hatch, falling to the ground.
Zechs: <hands over
ears> Dear Lord, make it STOP!
Noin: <also blows
open her hatch> …and making me babysit YOUR little sister instead of helping
you in battle, while you were off probably with ANOTHER WOMAN…
Une just backs off slowly, not wanting to
get involved.
Mariemaia Mc-soldiers toss Duo in
jail…literally.
Duo: Is there some
undesirable characteristic of mine that makes ME the one to always get thrown
in jail?
We see that Trowa is among them.
Trowa: Hey, better you
than me.
[People
will go on freely and without hesitation
When we’ve overcome our mistakes we can be truly kind]
Wufei hovers over the Earth, sitting
completely focused inside his Gundam, staring down the Earth.
Wufei: Hey, neat! I can see my house from here.
[You
and I have discovered…]
Mariemaia and Relena, guarded by saluting
soldiers, stand meeting with Dekim in front of the palace; Relena just glares
at him when Mariemaia nods her respects, then stares off into space…
Mariemaia:
<looks up at her> Whatcha looking at?
Relena: Um…nothing.
Mariemaia:
Yeah, right.
[…a
great strength that we know as love.
I believe your love, shivering
With a kiss I make a silent with.]
Heero flies towards Wing-ZERO in his shuttle,
completely focused.
Heero: <banging at
the radio in his cockpit>
Make…*bang*…them…*bang*…STOP!
*bang*
[If
only you could hear this heartbeat of mine
Beating strong and hard
So far away…]
The music starts to pick up, making Heero
jump slightly in his seat. The shuttle
then coincides with Wing-Zero’s capsule-thing.
He hops out, and floats over to it, landing on top...
Heero:
<rolling/bouncing on the surface> Ow! Ouch! Ooch! Ooh! Yowza!
ITAI!
…before catching the hatch in his way past,
climbing inside.
[Nothing
is gained, and no one stays]
Heero activates Wing-ZERO once more as it
comes to life with him inside the cockpit.
Wing-ZERO:
I once was lost, now am found; was blind, but now I see.
[Let
me offer to the baby’s small hand
This genuine throbbing of my heart
We all want to be held in the priceless warmth forever]
The capsule breaks apart, freeing the
Gundam as it spreads its metallic wings out in mad-cool fashion.
Wing-ZERO:
I rock.
[Like
the warmth of the sunlight
As it shines through the forest]
Heero flies off with Wing Zero, towards
Earth.
[I
believe your love, the will to never give up
As you spread out those scarred and battered wings
You soar through the skies and portray an endless dream…]
Multiple shots of the earth are seen,
focusing in on Mariemaia’s “castle.”
The scene switches to Relena staring out the window towards the
sky. Two guesses what the first words
out of her mouth are.
Relena: Heero…
Heero (v/o):
Ahhh! Why can’t the voices leave me
ALONE!
The ground starts to shake and sirens go
off as the entire palace is sunk into the ground, closed off by multiple
shields.
Soldier 1:
I can feel the earth moving!
Soldier 2:
First time?
Soldier 1:
Yeah…I’m a little nervous, though.
Soldier 2:
Don’t be afraid; the more you do it, the better it gets. And easier, too.
Soldier 3:
Closing Gates 1…Closing Gates 2…Closing Gates 3 and 4. Closing Gates 5 and 6… Brusselsprout
Presidential Residence blockade complete!
The scene goes back to Relena, still
looking out the window. Of course, by
now all there’s left to see are rocks and dirt.
Relena: The view sucks.
Mariemaia (v/o): My castle is completely protected…
Relena turns around, seeing Mariemaia in
the doorway. She walks forward,
entering the room.
Mariemaia:
Don’t you find it strange? Why should
such a shelter such as this be necessary in a peaceful world with no weapons?
Relena: Because…there are
weapons?
Mariemaia:
Don’t interrupt! <giggles> History is much like an Endless Waltz. They’re both boring, and seemingly go on
forever. If I’m not mistaken, they also
tend to put anyone under the age of 21 to sleep…but that’s besides the
point. The instant the year After
Colony 196 ends, I will be on the top of the Earth Sphere.
Relena: Isn’t that past
your bedtime?
Mariemaia:
Dekim says I get to stay up late just for my coronation. Cool, huh?
((Wu Fei))
Wu Fei, in his Gundam, hovers over the
Earth. Inside, he sits with his eyes
closed. Probably sleeping, we’re not
quite sure…
((***FLASHBACK*** Wufei—Colony L-5, where
he grew up))
Wu Fei stands before the Elders of his
clan, obviously mad.
Wu Fei: You’re dropping
this colony onto Earth?!
The Eldest of the Elders nods his head.
Wu Fei: You’re
nuts! How the hell did YOU get to be
leader? I’m piloting Nataku to wipe out
the evils of the universe!
Eldest Elder:
The Alliance has already decided to dispose of this colony. Rather than just watch, it’d be better to go
ahead with Operation Meteor.
Wu Fei: I don’t suppose
that pile of money behind you had any influence on your decision?
Eldest Elder:
…what money?
The camera zooms behind his “pillow seat”,
where a large pile of gold, rubies, diamonds, and a few traces of silver rest,
nearly sky-high.
Wu Fei: Ugh! If you want something done right, you gotta
do it yourself!
He runs out of the room in a fury,
activating the Altron Gundam inside the cockpit.
Wu Fei: I’ll destroy
all the evil, fair and square! You hear
me, you cheaters!
And he heads towards Earth. You know the rest.
((***END FLASHBACK***))
Wu Fei: …that was
it? That’s my flashback for the
movie? What about Meiran? Doctor O?
…the world’s against me!
Wufei sniffles, drawing an “aww!” from the
audience. He wipes away his few tears,
before glancing to his left
Wufei: There he is!
Heero flies towards him in Wing-ZERO. Wu Fei steers the Altron to face him.
Wu Fei: I won’t let you
go to Earth!
Heero: Try and stop
me, Mr. I-have-a-stick-up-my-ass-24/7!
Wu Fei: Who called me
that?!
((DUO))
Duo: Man, it’s
boring in here. I think I’ll take a nap
<lies down>
Suddenly, a voice is heard throughout the
prison, nearly shattering the walls themselves.
Wall: Abuse…nothing
but abuse!
Wu Fei (v/o):
MAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAXWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!
Duo: eep! <cowers
underneath a nearby blanket, his voice muffled> I didn’t do it!
((Wu Fei/Heero))
The two of them start to battle.
Heero: Is this what
you interpret as justice?
Wu Fei: No, this is
just for kicks, really…
((L3-X18999))
A rather large glass building is seen
inside the colony. Multiple guards are
standing outside, but inside they’ve all been taken out by gas.
Soldier: The stench…too
much…<passes out>
One soldier, wearing a gas mask, continues
on. We see a large number of hostages in one room, including Catherine
and…and…<checks name list>…Manager?
Cathy: <turns to
Manager> This is the second time you booked us into a hostage
situation. I swear, one more time and I
quit!
Manager: Oh and what
will you do then…run away and join the circus?
*rimshot*
The gas-masked soldier knocks the guards
in front of the door out with another canister of knock-out gas, then catches
one who passes out nearly in his/her arms, carefully lying him down on the
floor.
Gas-masked Soldier:
You go sleepy sleep now. ‘night-night!
The Soldier enters a code to open the
door, removing the mask upon entering… Why, lookie here; it’s Sally Po!
Sally: Is everybody
okay?
Woman:
<sarcastically> Oh, gee…we’ve only been taken hostage and locked in a
dark room without any food or water for god knows HOW long…of course
we’re okay!
Sally: Good,
then. Let’s go.
((Duo))
Duo: Well now…
He reaches into his hair, to pull out
something. An explosive of some kind.
Duo: Quatre should
be here any time…at least, he better be.
The soldiers standing guard outside the
door hear a muffled explosion come from inside.
Soldier 1:
Don’t tell me…another prisoner spontaneously combusted.
Soldier 2:
Damnit, that’s the third one this week…let’s go see!
They both rush to the peephole.
Soldier 2:
Me first!
Soldier 1:
No, me!
Soldier 2:
You got to go first last time!
Solder 1:
No I didn’t! You did!
Soldier 2:
No, you!
Soldier 1:
No, y—
But their incessant bickering is cut off when
the door lands on top of ‘em, having been kicked out by Duo, who runs off in an
instant.
Duo: Sayonara,
Suckers!
He runs out to the shuttle hanger, reaches
a particular ship, and jumps up, the lack of gravity allowing him to jump to
the door with ease…
Duo: <doesn’t
make it, pulled down by gravity…HARD> OW!
Rasser Frasser…
…or not.
Duo: Hey! Pull me up a ladder; I’m getting SHOT at
here!
A rope ladder drops, letting Duo climb up
it. Believe it or not, after all that,
and he STILL doesn’t get hit by a single bullet.
((Inside Ship))
Trowa sits calmly in the pilot seat, arms
crossed.
Trowa: One-one
thousand, two-one thousand, three—
Duo comes up behind him, lays one arm over
the back of the chair, and leans in.
Duo: You could’ve at
least come to help me! There’s nothing
wrong with helping out a friend in need.
Trowa: I wasn’t
waiting for you…but for someone else.
Duo: *sniff* That
hurts…
A voice comes from behind.
Sally (v/o):
Sorry to keep you!
Duo turns around, just as Sally tosses one
of her cinnamon-bun braids over her shoulder.
Sally: All hostages on
this colony have been rescued! Am I
good, or what?
Trowa: Okay, let’s go.
Duo: *blink* What,
are you two going out or something?
Sally: Not a chance;
his sister was captured again.
Duo: A-GAIN?!
Sally puts a hand on his shoulder, causing
Duo to recoil slightly for a moment.
Sally: By the
way…thank you Duo. You were kind enough
to leave me plenty of good treats.
Duo: You’re mocking
me, aren’t you?
Their shuttle blasts off towards Earth…
Hostage 5 (v/o):
<still on Satellite> Hey!
Wait! You forgot about us! Ooh…wait until I get my hands on
that…that…BLONDE!!!
((Heero/Wu Fei))
They’re still battling…
Heero: The more you
fight, the more sacrifices for peace become a waste. You must’ve realized that!
Wu Fei: Uh…no?
Heero: …you don’t even
know, do you?
Wu Fei: …yes?
Heero: The war we
fought is over.
Wu Fei: No, duh. Does that mean we don’t need warriors? Do soldiers who know nothing but battle get
tossed aside?
Heero: I thought you used
to be a scholar.
Wu Fei: You have no
proof!
Heero: Soldiers have
fought to attain a sense of peace.
Believe in the world we live in!
Wu Fei: Sorry…it’s
against my religion.
As they fight, the two Gundams quickly fly
towards the Earth, beginning to burn the instant they hit the atmosphere.
Wu Fei: I’m acting for
the people who were used as weapons!
I’m fighting for all soldiers, including you!
Heero: A likely story.
Wu Fei: You and I are
fighting like this. Don’t you feel
fulfilled as I do, when you’re fighting?
Heero: Well, actually…
Wu Fei: Oh, yeah. I
forgot; you have a girlfriend now.
Heero: You have no
proof!
Wu Fei: Puh-leeze…you
ain’t seen nothing until you’re married. Believe me.
Heero:
<surprised> You were… married?
Wu Fei: You and I are
the same! Not nearly as much as you and
Trowa…but we’re still the same! We can
only acknowledge our existence on the battlefield.
Heero: Just remember,
Wu Fei, Treize is dead! You killed him,
remember!
Wu Fei: How could I
forget? Even now, he haunts me…
Treize’s Ghost suddenly appears, holding a
lance.
