Gundam 00S: Crossover Episode Seven

==Chapter 9: The Hunt Begins ==

“So this Milliardo is supposed to be a clone created from your DNA?” Asked Amuro. “And he’s been after you ever since you two first met?” Added Charlie. “Yes, he’s my clone, and as to the second, I’m not sure anymore. Back on Earth he actually came to my rescue several times. The last two times I had thought he’d died, but it looks like fate is still with him.” Answered Ransac. “So what do we do? If he did actually save Renki, then I believe we should find him.” Said Charlie. Ransac chuckled. “Finding Milliardo is like looking for a needle in a hay stack. He’s been able to avoid detection for over 89 years now.” “Attention Gundam Pilots, please report to the bridge immediately.” The order came from Daryl over the intercom. “Bet they’ve found him.” Said Jim. “I’ll take that bet. The usual of course?” Said Ransac. “Yup.” “Guess we better go find out then, follow me guys.” The group was lead through several halls and two elevators before they reached the bridge.

The bridge was a dimly lit medium sized room that buzzed with activity. Several stations were scattered around, each filled with people monitoring or controlling different aspects of the ship. In the middle of the room, sitting in a lowered pit, were Daryl and Donovan managing the command station. Once again the two were arguing over how something should be managed. “What’s up?” Asked Ransac, intentionally interrupting the two as he spoke. Daryl cleared his throat before answering. “We’ve received coordinates from an anonymous source. We believe it may be from Milliardo.” “Really? Where do they point to?” “The Asteroid Belt between Mars and Jupiter.” Answered Donovan. “Not far from where we are now.” Observed Ash. “So we’re heading there then?” Asked Charlie. “We haven’t decided yet. We’ve had dealings with Milliardo go sour fast, I’d prefer we don’t get caught up in another mess.” Said Daryl. “But he saved Renki.” Said Charlie. “That is only an assumption.” Said Donovan. “Let’s not forget that it was Milliardo who saved our skins back on Earth, without him most of us would probably be dead. I say we go, I want to hear what he has to say.” Said Ransac. Daryl sighed. “Very well. All hands prepare for immediate travel to the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter. We will be utilizing the Trans Am Capability of all capable units. All pilots please begin docking GN-Drives with The Traveller.” Immediately the bridge broke into a flurry of motion as personnel began adjusting their calculations for the journey. “Well what are you waiting for? That includes the True Guardian!” He barked to Ransac. “We should tell the Eternal to come with us, we may need their help.” Said Donovan as the group left the room. “Is any of your machines capable of Trans Am?” Asked Ransac as they dashed through the halls. “Mine is.” Answered Ash. “Good, we’ll need to hook it up as well. We’re going to need a lot of power if we’re to do this quick.” “What about us?” Asked Charlie. “Just sit back and enjoy the show.” Was Ransac’s reply. The group arrived at the hanger to see it in a whirlwind of action. Engineers were scrambling all over trying to dock GN-Drives with the ship in time. Ransac saw Jim had loaded the True Guardian onto the Catapult Deck. A large condenser was attached on it’s back. From the condenser extended a large cable connected with the GN-Furnace. “Hurry up! We’re almost finished!” Shouted Jim. Ransac nodded and leapt over the railing, soaring into the cockpit of the True Guardian. “All GN-Drives connected, initiate phase two.” Said Syrene. Ransac nodded. After sealing the cockpit, he took the True Guardian to the very edge of the catapult deck, extending out in front of The Traveller. He quickly made sure the particle supply was secured before giving a thumbs up. “All mobile suits begin Trans Am. GN-Furnace will transfer all available particles to True Guardian.” The hanger soon seemed to glow with a bright red light. One by one mobile suits initiated Trans Am. Ransac soon followed. The True Guardian radiated a brilliant crimson from the sheer amount of power being supplied. “Deploying Wing Bits.” He announced. The wing binders opened up to let the wing bits detach and soar ahead of them. “The Eternal will be following close behind us, make sure the quantum field remains open long enough for them to travel through.” Explained Daryl over the com. “Roger that, opening Quantum Teleport Field now.” The Wing Bits soared and arranged themselves in a circle formation. They flashed a bright green and in the space between them erupted a massive green GN-Particle field. With a jerk Ransac was thrown back in his seat as The Traveller diverted it’s particle supply entirely to the forward thrust. The ship rushed forward at incredible speed, The Eternal barely managing to keep up. In his head Ransac counted down the seconds. “3, 2, 1.” The Traveller slammed into the field. Instead of simply coming out the other end, the ship simply vanished into thin air, the only sign of disturbance being a slight surge of GN-Particles rushing outward. The Eternal entered close behind.

Chapter 9 Part 2:
A large green light flashed. The Traveller and The Eternal both quantized into the asteroid belt, leaving a small stream of GN-Particles shrinking behind them. “Man that’s a weird feeling!” Said Ransac as the wing bits docked with the Gundam. Once that was done he returned to the hanger, detaching the particle tank as he walked. He chuckled as he saw the engineers were already back to work. Then he noticed at what they were working on. They were prepping the mobile suits for deployment. “Daryl said we’re all to launch.” Explained Charlie over the com as he sealed the cockpit to his machine. “What about Renki?” Asked Ransac. “She’s in the shuttle. She’s almost recovered, now she just needs a mobile suit.” “Good luck with that, her suit was mangled pretty badly.” “Actually we’ve almost got it fixed up, we just need a few minutes then it can sortie.” Interjected Jim. “Jim! What did I tell you about eavesdropping on com channels?!” Demanded Ransac. “Don’t do it on yours?” “Exactly. Now prep the catapult deck for me.” Ransac loaded the True Guardian onto the catapult deck, waiting for the signal to launch. A few seconds later he got it. Once again he launched from the ship. Behind him Charlie, Ash, Amuro, and Heero followed close behind. “All Alteron mobile suits will be deployed for this mission. The objective is to locate Milliardo Consulo. All units should be warned he is extremely dangerous and should not engage if possible. Phoenix Squad will remain behind on defensive standby until further orders.” “We’re joining to.” Announced Kira. The group turned around to see the pilots from The Eternal had deployed as well. “A joint mission then? Alright. I’ll take Ash, Elizabeth, Kira, and Heero. The rest of you team up and search that way.” Said Ransac. “Roger that, moving out.” Said Charlie as he took his group. “In we go.” Without another word they entered the asteroid belt.
