August UE 0084
Space Around Memento Mori, Lunar Orbit
You are Setsuna F. Seiei, and as you parry a blow from the Gadessa's beam saber, the Empruss attempts to blindside you with a salvo from its GN beam cannons.
"I honestly don't get what Ribbons sees in you, boy, but I might as well try and find out!" Hilling Care taunts as she kicks the 00 Raiser away.
You grunt in exertion as you try to get your bearings, only to realize the Empruss is bearing down on you with its claws out.
"DIE, HUMAN!" Devine Nova snarls.
You brace for impact, only for a beam round to force the Empruss off course.
You turn to see Graham Aker's GN-XIII and the Victory Gundam coming to your aid.
"Is this really all you can do, boy?! Show me that potential I see within you!" Graham Aker encourages you.
"Don't think you can get away with this for much longer, Innovades!" Patrick yells.
View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7g9PqHABa34
"And what can a mere HUMAN do-" Devine Nova is interrupted by the Victory Gundam charging full-tilt at it while firing its beam rifle.
Devine is forced to bring up the Empruss' GN Field to deflect the rounds, while Patrick charges in, beam saber drawn in its free hand.
At the same time, Graham Aker strafes around the Empruss, firing his GN-XIII's beam rifle while looking for an opening to charge in with a beam saber.
You turn your attention back to Hilling Care's Gadessa, charging forward and sidestepping around a shot from its beam cannon.
"Tch...don't think you have it easy!" Hilling Care screeches as she tries to line up another shot.
"Ack!" Patrick yelps.
You spare a glance back toward the engagement with the Empruss in concern to see that the A-LAWS mobile armor has grabbed the Victory by the feet and is now charging its large GN beam cannon.
Graham Aker charges at the Empruss, beam saber drawn, only for Devine to turn and use the Victory Gundam as a shield, forcing Graham to back off.
"You fool! I'm Patrick Colasour, king of mock battles! You think I didn't anticipate something like this?!" Patrick boasts.
The Victory Gundam detaches its legs, allowing the core block and upper torso to escape the grasp of the Empruss.
"Hah! You fell for an obvious gambit, Innovade!" Graham taunts as he and Patrick fire on the Victory's detached legs.
The Victory Gundam's doomed legs explode in a salvo of GN and Minovsky beams. When the smoke clears, the Empruss is still standing, GN Field active.
"Colonel, I need another pair of legs!" Patrick says.
As the Budapest sends over another pair of legs for the Victory Gundam, Hilling Care snarls in frustration.
"You'll need more than the ability to think on your feet to beat us!" She yells, levelling her Gadessa's beam cannon at Graham and Patrick.
"I am your opponent!" You retort, firing the 00 Raiser's GN beam guns at the Gadessa, forcing Hilling Care to dodge.
As the Victory Gundam receives a new pair of legs, you stare down Hilling Care's Gadessa, Patrick and Graham doing the same to the Empruss.
You are Mira Ayana, and Revive Revival is proving to be frustratingly slippery.
It's not just that Revive Revival is a skilled pilot, he also has an annoying tendency to use his allies as shields.
As a result, you, Nena, and Shinobu have destroyed dozens of A-LAWS mobile suits and Giganos Metal Armors while Revive's Gadessa remains mostly untouched.
"Oh my GOD! Can you stay still for, like, 3 seconds, you prick?!" Nena yells in frustration as she fires the Throne Drei's GN Handguns at Revive's Gadessa.
Revive almost lazily drifts to the side, causing Nena's shots to instead immolate an unfortunate GN-XIII.
"And what makes you think I'll do that, woman?!" Revive retorts, firing his Gadessa's GN Mega Launcher at the Throne Drei.
You put the Rose in front of the Throne Drei, the Gadessa's beam dissipating harmlessly against your machine's combined Blaze Luminous and Orgone Cloud barrier.
"Can we keep that up?" You ask Yukari.
"Yes, but only if the beam isn't continuous." Yukari says.
"Okay." You acknowledge as you fire the Dark Lance at Revive's Gadessa.
Revive dives into a formation of Giganos Metal Armors, causing all of your shots to hit them and not him.
"This guy's like a cockroach!" Masato of the Dancouga team complains as Dancouga tries to get a clear shot with its oversized rifle.
Revive's Gadessa cuts an unfortunate Enact in half with its beam saber before fleeing into a crowd of GN-XIIIs.
"You want me to try and clear-"
You're interrupted by a bright flash as Memento Mori fires.
You are Sumeragi Lee Noriega, and things are, surprisingly, going to plan.
"We're being forced into the firing line of Memento Mori!" Feldt reports.
"Shin Getter Robo is in position!" Anew reports.
"Not yet..." You mutter.
"Memento Mori appears to be mid-charge!" Mileina reports.
You keep your eye on the sensors and long-range camera as the Ptolemios II continues forward.
A few seconds later, you see a flash of red on the camera coming from Memento Mori.
"Allelujah, now!" You order.
As the beam that erupts from Memento Mori rushes toward you, your ship glows red and dodges it, Shin Getter Robo clinging on for dear life.
As the beam from Memento Mori fades, you assess the situation before reaching a decision.
"Take us straight down along the Orbital Ring! Getter Team, you have a go!" You say.
"Roger that! Change, Shin Getter 2!" Hayato yells.
Shin Getter 1 lets go of the ship before changing into Shin Getter 2. It then barrels straight toward Memento Mori a good distance above you.
"Deck Three hatch open! Seravee, Cherudim, and GN Archer are in position!" Mileina says.
"Lockon!" You order.
"You got it! Trans-Am!" Lockon says. "Let's go, Haro!"
"Deploy Shield Bits! Deploy Shield Bits!" The Orange Haro in the Cherudim chirps.
I'm prioritizing speed for this operation. As a result, Arios is using all of its Trans-Am power to boost the ship's thrusters, which means we can't use the GN Field. We're relying on the ship's armor plating and the Cherudim's Shield Bits for defense. Let's hope that Shin Getter Robo is scaring them enough to split their fire. You think to yourself.
"GN Archer is now in defensive position!" Mileina reports.
You nod as the Ptolemios II unleashes a suppressive barrage of beams and GN missiles.
The die is now cast, and you can only hope that things will go well.

The ship has slightly better defensive stats (17 Mobility for Shin Getter 2 vs 20 Armor for Ptolemaios II) and more defensive spirit commands if needed, so it's safer to let her take the lead.

It was not. I was just trying to think of something for Hilling Care to say that would make her sound arrogant.
It somewhat came off as an unintentional pun as well.

Result: Shin Getter 2 dodges or withstands most of the combined A-LAWS and Giganos defensive barrage, causing them to divert more fire from the Ptolemeios II toward it. Heavier volume of fire forces Shin Getter 2 to take 1000 damage (7000/8000 HP) and the slackened fire toward the Ptolemios II relieves pressure on the ship and Cherudim's Shield Bits. Shin Getter 2 is not deterred by the barrage.
View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ANsPwVqf7Y
Hayato grunts as he swerves to avoid a salvo of laser, beam, and railgun rounds from the combined Giganos and A-LAWS fleet.
"Think we should Open Get for some breathing room?" Benkei asks.
"You kidding? The Shin Get Machines might be leagues better than the old Get Machines, but they'd be sitting ducks in this barrage!" Hayato retorts as a trio of missiles slam into Shin Getter 2's shoulder.
"We just have to go a little further! Then we can tear apart Memento Mori!" Ryoma says.
Behind Shin Getter 2, the Ptolemios II glows red under the effect of Trans-Am, firing beams and GN Missiles while Gundam Cherudim's Shield Bits dance around the ship, protecting it from whatever the Trans-Am enhanced hull-plating can't deflect.
As Shin Getter 2 closes the distance, more of the A-LAWS and Giganos fleet shifts their fire from the Ptolemios II to Shin Getter 2, forcing Hayato to weather an even more intense storm of fire.
The entire Getter Team grunts as a hail of lasers and beam rounds slams into Shin Getter 2's torso.
"Damn it, Hayato, you couldn't avoid that?!" Ryoma yells.
"You try dodging everything they're throwing at us! It's like a Touhou game on the highest difficulty out there!" Hayato retorts.
"We're almost there!" Benkei says.
"Okay! Ignore the small fry and just focus on Memento Mori!" Ryoma says.
"You think I wasn't going to do that?" Hayato says sarcastically.
Shin Getter 2 closes the distance, Hayato readies Shin Getter 2's drill.
"Time for a beatdown beyond the speed of sound! Drill Hurricane!" Hayato yells.
Shin Getter 2 slams into Memento Mori with its drill before dashing around in a blur, running through the superweapon several times. By the time Hayato is finished, Memento Mori has several holes running through it.
Despite the massive damage it's sustained, Memento Mori's emitter dish still glows with the telltale signs that it's charging, albeit at a much slower pace than before.
"What the-?!" Ryoma says in confusion as Hayato dodges more fire from nearby A-LAWS ships.
"You muscle-headed fools!" Aber Lindt taunts over an open frequency. "You may have damaged Memento Mori, but you weren't able to destroy all the redundant systems thoroughly enough!"
"Yeah, but you also forgot about something." Benkei says smugly.
"Wha-?" Aber Lindt starts as he realizes the Ptolemios II is still approaching, rapidly.
"Tieria, now!" Sumeragi orders.
"Trans-Am!" Tieria yells, the Gundam Seravee glowing red. "Hyper Burst, triggering total release!"
The Gundam Seravee fires an enormous beam orb at Memento Mori. As it makes impact, the Gundam Cherudim takes aim and fires, while the Ptolemios II fires all of its GN Missiles.
After Tieria's orb slams into Memento Mori, Lockon's beam round slams into an essential component, followed by the Ptolemios II's GN Missiles.
The Ptolemios II swerves upward as its Trans-Am ends to avoid hitting Memento Mori, the top half of which explodes shortly afterward.
"N-NOOOOOOO!" Aber Lindt yells as enormous pieces of shrapnel slam into his command ship, causing it to explode.
Below the Orbital Ring, Hilling Care screeches in rage before leveling her Gadessa's beam cannon at the retreating Ptolemios II.
She barely has any time to line up a shot before the 00 Raiser charges at her and cuts the beam cannon in half.
"I've said it before, I am your opponent!" Setsuna states.
Hilling Care suddenly starts laughing.
"I fail to see any humor in your situation." Setsuna deadpans.
"Hey, boy. Don't you think Memento Mori's a little...tall?" Hilling Care asks in a dissonantly calm tone.
Setsuna, despite his misgivings, spares a glance toward Memento Mori and zooms in. He realizes that the bottom half is an almost symmetrically identical copy to exploded top half.
Setsuna's eyes widen in horror.
"You don't mean-"
"Why build just one superweapon when you can build two?" Hilling Care says jovially. "Not like Giganos had any other way to use the budget. Say goodbye to Von Braun City in a bit!"
"YOU-!" Setsuna charges at Hilling Care's Gadessa, cutting off its right arm and forcing her to back off.
"What the-! A second firing emitter is emerging from the bottom half of Memento Mori!" A Leo pilot says in alarm.
"Haro!" Setsuna calls to the red Haro in the 0 Raiser.
"Activating Raiser System! Activating Raiser System!" Red Haro chirps.
Devine Nova, realizing what Setsuna is going to do, charges at the Victory Gundam and Graham's GN-XIII, throwing both of them back. This opening allows the Empruss to charge at the 00 Raiser head on.
"I won't let you!" Devine yells, firing the Empruss' wire claws at the 00 Raiser.
Even as he has to endure a painful electric shock, Setsuna takes aim.
"System ready! System ready!" Red Haro chirps.
"Everyone get clear! Trans-Am!" Setsuna yells.
View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c7FwvYx8tN0
The Raiser Sword erupts from the 00 Raiser. Devine Nova brings up the Empruss' GN Field in a futile attempt to deflect the Raiser Sword, the enormous beam saber effortlessly overwhelming the mobile armor's GN Field and bisecting it. The Raiser Sword continues on, spearing the second Memento Mori cannon. Setsuna swings down, melting through essential systems and components before cutting through the firing emitter itself, the bottom half of Memento Mori exploding like its upper half shortly afterward.
Setsuna sighs in relief as the explosions die down and the combined A-LAWS and Giganos force starts to retreat.
"Damn you, Gundam!" Hilling Care yells as she joins the retreat.
Suddenly, an alarm sounds in Setsuna's cockpit.
"Haro, what's-"
Setsuna's unable to finish his as he's overwhelmed by a green flash.
From outside the 00 Raiser, those nearby see a pair of green rings form behind it before an enormous green flash occurs.
Aboard the Ptolemios II
Saji suddenly finds himself floating through a hazy white and green void, naked, but still in the sitting position he was in on the bridge of the ship.
In the distance, he sees Louise, hunched over and arms crossed, also naked.
"Saji...Saji, where are you...?" Louise sobs.
"LOUISE!" Saji yells.
Louise turns her head to face him.
"Saji...?" Louise says in confusion and recognition.
Just as quickly as Saji found himself inside that strange space, he finds himself back on the bridge of the Ptolemios II.
After a few seconds, Saji undoes his seatbelts and bolts off the bridge toward the brig.
"Saji!" Sumeragi says in alarm.
"I-I'll go with him!" Mileina says, hastily unbuckling herself from her seat and kicking off after him.
When Mileina arrives at the brig, she finds Louise sobbing and hugging Saji, the latter having undone the restraints of her straitjacket.
"Saji...Saji! It was like...my mind was in a haze..." Louise sobs.
"It's okay Louise. I'm here now. I'm real." Saji says gently as he embraces the love of his life.
"Saji! I love you!" Louise says before leaning up and kissing Saji.
Saji momentarily looks surprised before closing his eyes and returning the kiss.
Mileina sighs in relief and smiles before turning away to let Louise and Saji have some privacy.
You are Mira Ayana, and you shake your head as you try to process what just happened.
After the 00 Raiser manifested two enormous glowing rings, you had intermittent visions of a hazy white and green void, and of yourself and the girls floating through it naked. You're not sure if it was because of the Rose's new Brain Raid System, but you saw images of each other briefly superimposing themselves on each of you.
"What the hell was that?" You ask. "Did anyone else experience some kind of shared hallucination?"
The Getter Team reports in the positive, as do a large number of the other pilots, mostly those in closer proximity to the 00 Raiser.
"You better have a good explanation for this, Sumeragi..." You mutter as you head back toward the Budapest.

"Think we should Open Get for some breathing room?" Benkei asks.
"You kidding? The Shin Get Machines might be leagues better than the old Get Machines, but they'd be sitting ducks in this barrage!" Hayato retorts as a trio of missiles slam into Shin Getter 2's shoulder.
"We just have to go a little further! Then we can tear apart Memento Mori!" Ryoma says.
Behind Shin Getter 2, the Ptolemios II glows red under the effect of Trans-Am, firing beams and GN Missiles while Gundam Cherudim's Shield Bits dance around the ship, protecting it from whatever the Trans-Am enhanced hull-plating can't deflect.
As Shin Getter 2 closes the distance, more of the A-LAWS and Giganos fleet shifts their fire from the Ptolemios II to Shin Getter 2, forcing Hayato to weather an even more intense storm of fire.
The entire Getter Team grunts as a hail of lasers and beam rounds slams into Shin Getter 2's torso.
"Damn it, Hayato, you couldn't avoid that?!" Ryoma yells.
"You try dodging everything they're throwing at us! It's like a Touhou game on the highest difficulty out there!" Hayato retorts.
"We're almost there!" Benkei says.
"Okay! Ignore the small fry and just focus on Memento Mori!" Ryoma says.
"You think I wasn't going to do that?" Hayato says sarcastically.
Shin Getter 2 closes the distance, Hayato readies Shin Getter 2's drill.
"Time for a beatdown beyond the speed of sound! Drill Hurricane!" Hayato yells.
Shin Getter 2 slams into Memento Mori with its drill before dashing around in a blur, running through the superweapon several times. By the time Hayato is finished, Memento Mori has several holes running through it.
Despite the massive damage it's sustained, Memento Mori's emitter dish still glows with the telltale signs that it's charging, albeit at a much slower pace than before.
"What the-?!" Ryoma says in confusion as Hayato dodges more fire from nearby A-LAWS ships.
"You muscle-headed fools!" Aber Lindt taunts over an open frequency. "You may have damaged Memento Mori, but you weren't able to destroy all the redundant systems thoroughly enough!"
"Yeah, but you also forgot about something." Benkei says smugly.
"Wha-?" Aber Lindt starts as he realizes the Ptolemios II is still approaching, rapidly.
"Tieria, now!" Sumeragi orders.
"Trans-Am!" Tieria yells, the Gundam Seravee glowing red. "Hyper Burst, triggering total release!"
The Gundam Seravee fires an enormous beam orb at Memento Mori. As it makes impact, the Gundam Cherudim takes aim and fires, while the Ptolemios II fires all of its GN Missiles.
After Tieria's orb slams into Memento Mori, Lockon's beam round slams into an essential component, followed by the Ptolemios II's GN Missiles.
The Ptolemios II swerves upward as its Trans-Am ends to avoid hitting Memento Mori, the top half of which explodes shortly afterward.
"N-NOOOOOOO!" Aber Lindt yells as enormous pieces of shrapnel slam into his command ship, causing it to explode.
Below the Orbital Ring, Hilling Care screeches in rage before leveling her Gadessa's beam cannon at the retreating Ptolemios II.
She barely has any time to line up a shot before the 00 Raiser charges at her and cuts the beam cannon in half.
"I've said it before, I am your opponent!" Setsuna states.
Hilling Care suddenly starts laughing.
"I fail to see any humor in your situation." Setsuna deadpans.
"Hey, boy. Don't you think Memento Mori's a little...tall?" Hilling Care asks in a dissonantly calm tone.
Setsuna, despite his misgivings, spares a glance toward Memento Mori and zooms in. He realizes that the bottom half is an almost symmetrically identical copy to exploded top half.
Setsuna's eyes widen in horror.
"You don't mean-"
"Why build just one superweapon when you can build two?" Hilling Care says jovially. "Not like Giganos had any other way to use the budget. Say goodbye to Von Braun City in a bit!"
"YOU-!" Setsuna charges at Hilling Care's Gadessa, cutting off its right arm and forcing her to back off.
"What the-! A second firing emitter is emerging from the bottom half of Memento Mori!" A Leo pilot says in alarm.
"Haro!" Setsuna calls to the red Haro in the 0 Raiser.
"Activating Raiser System! Activating Raiser System!" Red Haro chirps.
Devine Nova, realizing what Setsuna is going to do, charges at the Victory Gundam and Graham's GN-XIII, throwing both of them back. This opening allows the Empruss to charge at the 00 Raiser head on.
"I won't let you!" Devine yells, firing the Empruss' wire claws at the 00 Raiser.
Even as he has to endure a painful electric shock, Setsuna takes aim.
"System ready! System ready!" Red Haro chirps.
"Everyone get clear! Trans-Am!" Setsuna yells.

The Raiser Sword erupts from the 00 Raiser. Devine Nova brings up the Empruss' GN Field in a futile attempt to deflect the Raiser Sword, the enormous beam saber effortlessly overwhelming the mobile armor's GN Field and bisecting it. The Raiser Sword continues on, spearing the second Memento Mori cannon. Setsuna swings down, melting through essential systems and components before cutting through the firing emitter itself, the bottom half of Memento Mori exploding like its upper half shortly afterward.
Setsuna sighs in relief as the explosions die down and the combined A-LAWS and Giganos force starts to retreat.
"Damn you, Gundam!" Hilling Care yells as she joins the retreat.
Suddenly, an alarm sounds in Setsuna's cockpit.
"Haro, what's-"
Setsuna's unable to finish his as he's overwhelmed by a green flash.
From outside the 00 Raiser, those nearby see a pair of green rings form behind it before an enormous green flash occurs.
Aboard the Ptolemios II
Saji suddenly finds himself floating through a hazy white and green void, naked, but still in the sitting position he was in on the bridge of the ship.
In the distance, he sees Louise, hunched over and arms crossed, also naked.
"Saji...Saji, where are you...?" Louise sobs.
"LOUISE!" Saji yells.
Louise turns her head to face him.
"Saji...?" Louise says in confusion and recognition.
Just as quickly as Saji found himself inside that strange space, he finds himself back on the bridge of the Ptolemios II.
After a few seconds, Saji undoes his seatbelts and bolts off the bridge toward the brig.
"Saji!" Sumeragi says in alarm.
"I-I'll go with him!" Mileina says, hastily unbuckling herself from her seat and kicking off after him.
When Mileina arrives at the brig, she finds Louise sobbing and hugging Saji, the latter having undone the restraints of her straitjacket.
"Saji...Saji! It was like...my mind was in a haze..." Louise sobs.
"It's okay Louise. I'm here now. I'm real." Saji says gently as he embraces the love of his life.
"Saji! I love you!" Louise says before leaning up and kissing Saji.
Saji momentarily looks surprised before closing his eyes and returning the kiss.
Mileina sighs in relief and smiles before turning away to let Louise and Saji have some privacy.
You are Mira Ayana, and you shake your head as you try to process what just happened.
After the 00 Raiser manifested two enormous glowing rings, you had intermittent visions of a hazy white and green void, and of yourself and the girls floating through it naked. You're not sure if it was because of the Rose's new Brain Raid System, but you saw images of each other briefly superimposing themselves on each of you.
"What the hell was that?" You ask. "Did anyone else experience some kind of shared hallucination?"
The Getter Team reports in the positive, as do a large number of the other pilots, mostly those in closer proximity to the 00 Raiser.
"You better have a good explanation for this, Sumeragi..." You mutter as you head back toward the Budapest.

Here comes the rain.
Huh was not expecting Gendo to be an option.
