On the Archangel
In the bridge of the Archangel Mu La Flaga ask how they should leave as he expects Creuset to not to give up on sinking them while thinking of possibilities to fight in the end Murrue Ramius decides she will have the Strike and Aegis sortie. At this time
Mu said " Murrue do you truly believe the what the Ashford kid said besides did you see the things his supposed friends and bodyguards brought in their Zero's equipment is even superior to EA standard military Zero and I am suprised you didn't connect the kid with the Ashford group till his people arrived."
Murrue said " I understand that you want to say that there was no secret military affiliated group with advance warning of ZAFT'S attack and the chief engineer of Aegis colluded with the Ashford group to secretly make a second Aegis and planned to smuggle it out to them. But does it matter now we have the Aegis with us . As for guessing his identity by his name please he doesn't look like or act like a 2nd generation rich kid how would one connect his name to the Ashford with the way he behaves."
Mu said " well can't be helped I guess but I can kind of guess why the Ashford group is trying to get the Aegis MS . I heard they are building a private space colony they probably want the MS data to mass produce MS with it's data as the defence force of their private colony. As for why I am so sure it is them it's because of their gundam series before coming to Heliopolis even I didn't know what the G Project Weapons looked like but the Ashford's not only had their MS series with MS resembleing the G Weapons they even gave them the name Gundam using the OS's abbreviation if you tell me there is no connection I for one am not going to believe it."
Murrue was shocked and said " Private space colony!!!, Are you sure they are making a colony and some sort of small base or Lab . How did they ever gather the capital and the resources needed to build one . After all even if they had the capital without sufficient connections it's not possible for them to get the resources to build the Space colony. "
Mu said " They certainly do have the capital as they have been maintaining a led in quality and features of all their products for the past four something years it all happened after the kid Alex was attacked and nearly died to supposedly blue cosmos attack it seemed the Ashford group was dumping all their reasearch results at once as if taking revenge on the business community as whole but no one really realised their goal for such act was to build their own private colony till they started building right after bloody valentine. As for the connections no knows whether it was planned or really a coincidence but the Ashford's save the life of Lenore Zala who is the wife of the current ZAFT defence council chairman. "
Now even Natarle Badgiruel was suprised and said " There can't be such a coincidence right could it be the Ashford's have people in military high command? Besides I think we should think more about our immediate danger I think we have MU pilot Aegis and find another person for the Strike. "
Mu said " I doubt anyone in the military high command will help them with such things even they had any people they know. As for piloting the Aegis and Strike are you crazy have you gone and seen what those kids did to OS . When I was down there I went to check it out but it's been changed so much that no natural could understand it anymore . "
Natarle tried to argue that they can have the OS changed back to the former version but after the words came to her mouth she stop remembering their incomplete status and still said it is not good to have civilians that too kids use such sophisticated military equipment.
Murrue on the side had understood that this was Natarle concern for children despite not showing it out wordly. But she knew they had no other choice so she told them that the Strike and Aegis will temporarily be handled by them .
Then Mu asked " But are sure the kid Kira's gone pilot it though? As the Alex kid with his deep cunning I think he will probably us every opportunity to gather the battle data of the Aegis. "
Murrue said " I will talk to them about it myself."
After that Murrue left for crew quarters to talk to Kira and Alex at first Kira was not willing but the ZAFT's attack immediately caused him to accept the situation despite his reluctance. Alex left quickly to Hanger and got into the Aegis meet with Arthur's familiar face in the comms and knew that Arthur had already volunteered to the bridge crew and will probably even get to operate in other positions after Sai and other also volunteer.
Alex used the Aegis to intercept Olar and Matthew and left Miguel and Athrun who are on the other side to Kira .
Alex used the highly agile MA form of the Aegis to quickly reach his targets and intercept them before they could reach the Archangel . After he reached them he tried to intercept the missiles with his 60mm high energy beam rifle and head Vulcan cannons but still some of them hit the support pillars bringing the hazard level of the colony upto the point shelters being ejected while intercepting the missiles he also shot the hands and feet of the GINN to make them unable to continue combat an turned to see Kira's beam boomerang chopping of Miguel's GINN's feet and with the thought of being a temporary mercy shot he also quickly transformed into MA cruise mode and hit the GINN out of Kira's way and incapacitated him also but while he was doing it Miguel final shot destroyed the last minimum support of the colony resulting in the colony's destruction seeing the colony coming apart Alex took advantage of the MA form high speed to get on the Archangel's body before Air currents could push him far away.
Meanwhile on the otherside Kira and Athrun were looking at each and questioning their presence before they could do anything the colony split apart and Air currents pushed each of them far apart.
On the Archangel's body after all the Air currents were gone and Heliopolis's disintegration Alex slowly got into the hanger and left for the quarter to contact his father to collect the containers with the Maw's and the containers containing Astray's Black and Gold. If not for worring the data transmission might be found and traced in long distance even with Quantum transmission his father and others wouldn't need to collect these personally and then get to Earth at highest speed and on boosters and have his father sent to Copernicus city again in high speed shuttle with Orb's mass drive to complete the Blitz for uncle John.
After talking to his father about the containers to collect also told why he sure they would leave for Artemis. As for why Artemis would fall James knew himself as he is aware of the Blitz's special function despite not have the data. So Alex asked his father to collect the data the for the Light wave barrier. While they are down.
Kira who was swept away finally returned with a shelter whose propulsion was damaged. After Murrue Ramius granted permission to bring it into the Archangel as the hatch open Frey came out upon seeing Kira familiar face she went to ask him about the situation.
Frey who had been training with Alex and other these past 6 month was no longer a weak girl and was observing everything while asking Kira about everything and was happy to learn that Sai and other were here .
Later in the crew cabin Frey was catching up with everyone when MU came to call Kira to Hanger to take care of the Strike as for the Aegis Eric and Steve were getting acquainted with the real machine they practiced for so long on the simulator.
Just after Kira left when there were only Sai and other who were thinking of helping Kira by volunteering to join the crew Alex said Frey while the others were listening to act as if she hated all coordinators since she already decided that she would be committed to her family arrangement.
Frey said " why should I be the bad person just so Kira can give up his love can't I just tell him normally so that he can accept."
Alex said " Do you think idiots in love will give up just because you say you don't love them . They always harbour hope such she isn't married yet I have a chance as long as she isn't married. Besides it's not like I am asking you something unreasonable if we hadn't meet weren't going to become a 2nd generation blue cosmos member."
Frey furiously said " Enough I told you many times just because my dad supports blue cosmos doesn't mean he is a blue cosmos member it is a political necessity. "
