"Heliopolis!"
Seeing this scene, Kira cried out miserably. The feet of the Assault Gundam and the Shield Gundam, who were confronting each other, also began to crack at a lightning speed. Their bodies were hit by the disintegrating fluid, making intense sounds.
The familiar street collapsed. The roof of the building was blown away, the glass shattered, and the road was torn apart. Behind them was true darkness, with its mouth wide open. The turbulence kept shaking the plane, and it was completely out of control.
"Waaa
Kira screamed. The thrusters began to shoot out, but they were still pushed and dragged into the void by the airflow.
"Kira!"
Aslan shouted. The Divine Shield Gundam seemed to want to come over. However, under the impact of the turbulence, the distance between the two mecha only grew further and further. Along with the scattered outer walls of the satellites, the assault Gundam was pushed into the boundless universe.
Just like when they parted, a powerful external force tore their friendship apart again.
" X105 Gundam Assault, please answer-"
The communicator had been repeating the same call for a while. In the cockpit, only Kira's rapid breathing could be heard.
'Heliopolis' was actually like this…
The ground that Kira had just stepped on was now shattered and scattered. The debris and metal pieces floating in space, as well as familiar signs and parts of buildings, were wandering in front of him.
Why?
Whether it was tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, the daily life that he thought would not change was unexpectedly so fragile.
War, destruction, death…they were so close!
Kira looked at the satellite that was gradually turning into ruins, and an inexplicable emotion attacked his body. Shaken, shocked, horrified, sad…No, none of that. What flowed in Kira's heart was anger and gratitude.
He was angry that his home had been destroyed by the flames of war, and he was moved by…tasting the novel experience brought about by war.
In between his eyebrows, a blue crystal shone faintly like a diamond. The light flashed and disappeared. Kira didn't notice this, but his brain and body were already quietly changing.
Soon, he would experience this change.
"…X105 Gundam Assault! Can you hear me? Please answer!"
The voice on the other end of the communicator was mixed with anxiety, but Kira was immersed in the shocking scene of the collapse of Heliopolis and could not hear it at all until...
"…Kira Yamato!"
A familiar voice called out her name, and Kira suddenly woke up.
It was Marius, the female officer who had sworn not to let her die.
"If you can hear me,... and if you're safe, Kira Yamato!”
The anxious voice was filled with fear and unease. The reason…was probably only known to Kira and Marius. Both of them had promised each other that they would not allow the other to die.
In order to prevent Marius from worrying too much, Kira quickly turned on the communicator and answered.
"Ah…yes, I am…I am Kira!”
Upon hearing Kira's voice, Marius, who was on the Archangel, finally heaved a sigh of relief. If Kira was really…she couldn't believe what she would become. Before she became a soldier, she was a woman.
As the first man in her life to have an ambiguous relationship, she had already determined that he was the other half of her life.
She asked with a calm heart.
"Are you alright?"
"Yes."
"Do you know where we are? Can you come back?"
Kira pursed her lips and gripped the control stick again. She began to check the screen and saw the location of the Archangel. Just as he was on his way back, an electronic voice sounded in the cabin, and a message was displayed on the screen.
"SOS signal?"
A cylindrical, slender floating object appeared on the screen with a flashing light on it.
"They're drifting because their thrusters are broken.”
Kira arrived at the Archangel safely, but she was stuck at the open door on the starboard side and refused to enter because the Assault Gundam was holding an escape capsule with both hands.
"You want me to leave them behind? The people inside were all fleeing citizens of Heliopolis.”
Kira said angrily. On the screen, Malo sighed.
"…Alright, I'll allow it."
As soon as he said this, another female officer objected.
"This ship is in battle! How can you let the refugees board the ship…"
"There's nothing they can do about their ship being damaged. I don't want to waste time arguing about this now.”
The boarding point of the assault Gundam and the escape capsule was a two-way deck with a long and narrow launch channel on the right. As soon as Kira and the escape capsule entered the hangar at the rear, the huge gate of the airtight cabin was immediately closed.
The dedicated maintenance bay for the MG was kept inside, and on the other side was the shot MG. The gate of the Gundam was opened, and Kira poked her head out. When she saw his face, it immediately caused a debate among the crew members below.
"Hey, hey, what's going on? He's still a kid. Is that the kid driving that thing?”
Madek the Servant openly voiced everyone's thoughts. He had a towel tied around his neck, his hair was unkempt, and his face was full of stubble. Even if he was complimenting him, it was hard to say that he looked refreshed.
His military rank was Commander Cao, and he was in charge of the preparation work.
At the same time, Milia and the others who heard the news of the Gundam's return also rushed towards Kira who had just gotten out of the cockpit.
"That's great, Kira!"
"Are you alright?"
Mirialia threw herself into Kira's arms and cried tears of joy. Thor patted his back hard, looking very excited. Sai Yi and Carse watched from the side with happy smiles on their faces.
At this moment, a girl's voice came from the other end of the hangar.
"Sai, Miriya!"
Her long red hair fluttered in the wind. Among the refugees who came out of the escape capsule, a young girl flew out alone. It was Flay Alsta.
Seeing the familiar people gathered here, she immediately floated over. However, probably because he was not used to the weightless environment, he crashed into the wall. Kira gently pushed Mirialia away and gently leaped into the air, catching Flay before she hit the wall.
