SEED – 001 "Albino Aegis"
"Mother dearest art thee sure both of us needeth to pilot this weapon? One of us could control this remotely through our quantum network and we would beest a gross amount safer." Asks my dear Lilith as she sits on the rear cockpit of the Albino Aegis.
"This is why you're still a child my dear daughter, but don't worry mommy's going to be always here for you." I looked at her in a pitying manner.
"Mother cease thy prattle. Telleth me the real reason thee wanted to pilot this mobile suit yourself." Demands my oh-so-cute daughter as she deadpans at me.
"It's a man's romance to pilot a giant 20 meter tall humanoid robot!" Of course I answered truthfully. I mean, who wouldn't want to ride a 20 or so meter tall humanoid robot?
"Mother… thee and your… childishness. I guess this is what maketh thee mine mother I suppose." Lilith sighed at my antics as I reply by teasing her.
"I love you too dear. Now chop chop, I want you to control the extra arms and legs, you can shoot but don't kill any marked targets." I clenched the control sticks and manipulated the MS.
The heavily modded Aegis-based Gundam stood up in all its glory and walked out of the rented hangar. As soon as we're out, we were greeted by a burning and still under-attack colony of Heliopolis of the ORB Union.
The rest of the G-Weapons is already out and are on their way to Vesalius, all that is left is the Strike Gundam in its sword striker form fighting against GINNs whilst working together with its not-so-tiny ally, Moebius ZERO.
Both sides temporarily stopped fighting as soon as they spotted my bright white Albino Aegis, after 13.2 seconds, ZAFT forces engaged me in combat while the EA forces tried to hail me. Ignored the EA and started to run towards a cluster of buildings to my left as ZAFT forces engaged me. My Aegis used the buildings as cover as it takes its dual beam rifle out and held it with the rear hands. I was waiting for the GINNs to come over but it seems they figured out that that could've been a trap so they decided to keep some distance away and keep the EA MS and MA ducking for cover.
"Since they're not coming, I guess we better go to them instead." I muttered as the Albino Aegis gets out of cover and sprints towards the GINNs. Seeing the speed of the running MS surprised the ZAFT forces but quickly recovered as half of them turned their guns towards me and fires.
"Mother swing hath left please." Lilith requests and I complied. Albino Aegis made a turn and ran towards left while keeping its head firmly at the firing targets, the rear hands controlled by Lilith swing to the right and aimed their beam rifles at 2 GINNs who promptly saw the rifles and started doing evasive manoeuvres, Lilith, confident at her accuracy, fires away and hits both of them, 1 gets destroyed as it explodes into a ball of flame and the other disabled as its entire right arm explodes.
"Target 1 down, Target 2 heavily damaged." Calls out Lilith as she confirms her hits. It's moments like this that her Shakespearean speech disappears entirely, it's like she's in SEED mode and entirely focus her processors into combat. Still she's Lilith all the same and I do love this part of her as well.
Controlling Albino Barbatos, I had the arm claws manifest beam sabers and sprinted towards the damaged GINN only for it to fall back and a white CGUE takes over the fight. The CGUE fires its guns at me but I deftly evaded via application of controlled precise thrusts to slide along the road. The CGUE flew up and kept firing but I relentlessly pursue while evading machinegun fire, Lilith found an opportunity and fired a beam rifle shot which hit the CGUE's shield, unfortunately it was minor enough that the CGUE ignored it and kept firing.
Making a sudden boost to the left and then upwards surprised the white CGUE pilot, he stopped firing and started making distance in hopes of keeping the still active beam sabers on Albino Aegis' claws but my MS is a lot faster than his so I quickly caught up. I had the Albino Aegis made an upward slice with its right arm and destroyed the white CGUES' right foot and hand thereby effectively removing the MS' balance, defense and its other weapon forcing him to choose, retreat or keep fighting. While he can still fight, I doubt he'd last long at that state.
Lilith, again, taking an open opportunity to fire only to miss as the white CGUE used the colony's spine as a shield. Lilith and I then looked for other targets to engage only for them to follow on the CGUE's steps and retreat as well.
"Mother, the enemy hath retreated. Art we to contact the EA warship or escape ourselves?" Asked Lilith as we both survey the battlefield to ensure no further contacts beyond the still afloat mobile armour, standing mobile suit with an oversized sword and a legged battleship.
Nodding at at Lilith, I opened up a video comms with the legged warship. The Captain of the ship, not in uniform and injured, Murrue Ramius tried to fire off her protocols only for me to pre-emptively strike. "Look at the mess you brought. The colony's dead. Hundreds if not thousands of civilians dead. What say you Alliance?"
Lilith chuckled in our JTN and I ignored it, I know that I'm not the one to speak but hey cut me some slack, I need my dramatics and I shall have it.
'Yes Mother dearest, thee wilt hast it.'
