Mobile Suit Gundam: White Volume 1

Chapter 1: The Package
"Damn it all!"

Blood, a teenage ace pilot of the SC Organization, was not in the best mood. He needed to get across the raging battlefield, however, it wasn't happening.

"Xsavier! Take those units and cover me!"

Blood watches him order his squad in a hidden position. He took this chance to pilot his Gouf through the blazing battle. On the other side is a hulled-down squad awaiting him to recieve a package. The problem is, is that a group of enemy Marauders were in his way.

Goufs were made for heavy assualt while Marauders were manufactured for close-quarter combat, which concludes that the Marauders have greater mobility. Their largest weakness is that they have extremely thin armour made out of tin foil(sarcasm).

Blood charges them, unsheathing his Heat Blade to fight hand-to-hand combat. The first Marauder came at its fullest, unaware of Xsavier's squad. They light it up in flames. The second one mounts its shield on the side Xsavier's squad was shooting from to prevent getting incapacitated. Blood didn't mind, after all it is war because he's supposed to kill. It's where he got his name from.

He rushes it and they collide, metal on metal. Blood drops the Gouf's shield, frees his left hand and open fires at the Marauder's cockpit. It didn't take long to destroy the last Marauder afterwards.

Moments later, Blood reaches his destination and is greeted by two friendly Zaku IIs.

"Good," one of the pilot's voice said through the radio,"you made it. This is the package."

In the Zaku's hand was a life pod. Blood wasn't expecting this. He was expecting some weapon or a bomb.

"Inside this life pod is an important individual. Take her to southern Europe and protect her until further orders."

Blood takes the life pod from the Zaku and carefully holds it in the Gouf's right hand. As he bares farewell, he wonder's what's so important about this woman. Is she a governor? A mechanical scientist of some kind? He figured he'll find out once he returns to the Chariot.

"Xsavier, Tomas, head to my position quickly, so you can help me."

At that instant, a bullet fires above his Gouf's head. He quickly takes cover behind a building. He raises his left hand and prepares to fire. A Marauder walks past the building and Blood opens fire. There were more behind it and they decapitated the Gouf. It falls to its knees and as Blood is about to eject, the Maruaders begin taking fire.

"Yo! We got your back, Blood," Tomas says.

Later, after they finish off the Marauder, they help Blood up. Tomas carefully takes the life pod and they make their way back to the Chariot.

"So," Xsavier begins to say when they got back to the Chariot's hangar,"let's see who this so called 'important' person is."

Most of the crew, including the captain, Naomi, watch as the engineers open the hatch. A girl slowly, and cautiously, steps out. She has dyed blonde hair and wore a short-skirt dress. Blood stared at her in disbelief. She was only a girl his age. He walks over to her.

"What makes you so special?" he demands.

"Blood!" Captain Naomi yells. The girl holds up her hand to silence her,

"It's fine. By the way, my name is Luna, thank you for asking," she says in a sarcastic tone. Then back to serious," I understand why he wants to know. And so to answer your question, I'm one of the few that has access to an incredible mobile suit.

Blood didn't understand, just like the rest of the crew. An incredible mobile suit....? What more can we do with mobile suits?

Luna turns to him.

"You're supposed to take me there, yes? Then do it. I'll probably have better protection there."

Blood bursts into anger.

"You think we can't protect you?!"

"Well, if you say nearly getting us both killed about half an hour ago is 'protecting' me then it's obvious you can't."

"Bite your words, Bitc-"

"Enough! She has a point, Blood." If she believes it's safer there, then we'll do it."

Blood couldn't believe it. He was humiliated by a girl he barely met. And his first impression of her were not great.
