Gundam SEED’s Final Destination

In the early morning, Aslan was awakened by an electronic notification while he was sleeping.

"S...Aslan...can...answer..."

The noise was very loud, but what came from inside was a sound he was all too familiar with.

"Is it Nigel?"

Aslan shouted into the radio, and Nigel's voice came back immediately: "Aslan! Great, I will search for your location from the radio waves right away -"

"What's wrong--?"

The girl's voice caused Aslan to look outside. She was also awake, rubbing her eyes and standing at the feet of the Aegis Gundam, looking up at the cockpit.

"The radio is back on!"

Aslan called to her, but was soon distracted by the sound of another siren.

That was when the sonobuoy he dropped on the coast detected the approach of an object in the sea.

After Aslan confirmed the sonar, he took the elevator down to the girl, told the girl what he had discovered, and said: "My rescue is here, and there seems to be something else coming from the sea, which is where your body is. that direction"

Cagalli looked behind him slightly uneasily after hearing this. That direction was opposite the island.

"I have to hide this thing."

When Aslan said this, Cagalli said "Huh?" and tilted her head in confusion.

"I——I don't want to have a fight in a place like this..."

Perhaps this sentence reminded her of their separate positions again, Cagalli nodded as if she suddenly understood.

"Hmm... Then I'll go back to my body. I'll find a place to hide first and check the situation."

After saying that, she raised her head with a complicated expression, glanced at the Holy Shield Gundam, and then faced Aslan again, with a raw smile on her face.

"Then...goodbye..."

"goodbye--"

The two of them woke up from their dream.

The boy and girl who were not supposed to meet actually spent time together around the fire.

And the next morning, they will return to their original worlds.

"It's just like Cinderella...hehe..."

Looking at the girl's back, Aslan suddenly thought that the girl was completely incompatible with Cinderella Liang, and couldn't help but laugh at his own thoughts.

That girl couldn't even compare to the princess in the fairy tale.

He is irritable and impulsive, loves to cry and is angry, acts recklessly, and even doesn't care what others think of him——

Aslan couldn't help but feel a trace of regret in his heart. He pursed his lips and shouted towards the girl's leaving figure: "You!"

"Um?"

After hearing Aslan's call, Cagalli stood on the rock and turned around, her short golden hair swaying.

"Are you really not the Earth Army?"

"Nah!"

When Cagalli heard this, she put her hands to her mouth, opened her throat and replied loudly.

The childish words and tone made Aslan laugh.

However, his smile froze in the middle of the smile. You are not a soldier, so what are you doing...

For a moment, the face of his childhood friend appeared in his mind.

At this moment, the girl's voice sounded again: "My name is Cajiali! What's yours?"

Aslan raised his head in surprise. At this time, the girl was still standing there looking at Aslan.

"Aslan!"

"Then Aslan! Goodbye-"

Cagalli stood on the rock and waved her hands, then turned around and walked towards the other end.

Aslan watched her go and stared at the place where she disappeared for a long time.

His mind was unconsciously tracing everything that had happened along with yesterday's memories, and in a trance, he had a unique hazy, sweet, and reluctant impression in his heart...

Cajiali?····

As if to prevent himself from forgetting, Aslan recited the name again in his mind.

······

"KouKou——"

"Come in."

"excuse me!"

The door to the Gibraltar base command office slowly opened, and Noel, dressed in red, walked slowly in.

"Well - you do seem to have changed."

Cruze looked at Noel who walked in slowly, and couldn't help but cross his hands on the table in front of him.

He has been paying attention to Noel in the past few days.

There is no doubt that this is the expression and look Noel should have.

"Captain, do you think this is a good thing or a bad thing?" Noel asked after hearing this.

Now Noel felt that there was no good person in the world.

Whether it's Cruze in front of him, or Sarah, or Orb's former prime minister, or even Lax Klein and Sigal Klein...

None of these political people are easy to get along with, they are all a bunch of heartless guys.

Compared with these people, Kira, Flagg, and Aslan are simply harmless little sheep.

"Shouldn't you know this question better than me?"

Cruze threw the question back, but his eyes hidden under the mask were slightly surprised, as if he had discovered something.

Is it Durandal?

still·····

Noel chuckled and said nothing.

"Sit down, it looks like we will be talking very late today."

Cruze quickly pulled away from his thoughts, pointed to the chair not far away and said.

I don’t know how far Durandal has achieved it, but it doesn’t matter.

As long as the tool can be used, as for whether it can be used without taking advantage of it, this is just a matter of how to use it, or the tool has not gone to the right place for it.

"I don't think we'll talk too late." Noel smiled.

Now he can't guarantee that he can resist Kruse's rhetoric. After all, his heart is too easily shaken and his will is not firm.

Therefore, Noel will not stay long with people like Lux and Cruze who are good at demagogues when it is not the only choice.

"oh?"

Cruze was slightly surprised, or rather surprised by Noel's attitude and tone, as well as this... somewhat familiar atmosphere.

"If Captain Cruze has nothing else to do, I want to go back and continue to participate in the pursuit of the Archangel."

Noel spoke out his thoughts.

After hearing this, Kruse couldn't help but look up at Noel, but in the face of his eyes, Noel was extremely calm.

"What's the reason?" Cruze asked a very strange question while hesitating.

"Reason? Aren't they enemies? Do you need a reason to kill the enemy?"

Noel asked back, but he was more certain of his previous guess.

"But I have a task here that I hope you can complete." Kruse accepted Noel's answer. For him, this was a very perfect answer. Unfortunately, this answer came a little late...

"What mission?"

Noel couldn't help but frown slightly when he heard this. Are there any other tasks that require the use of red clothes at this time?

It’s not my turn to participate in the singing battle...

Other than that, what other mission can be compared to the Archangel—

In other words, it is precisely because of the mission of the Archangel, so...

Noel couldn't help but think of the news he received today. Someone from Team Laxim discovered traces of the Archangel...

"Do you still remember the two MSs we met last time?"

When Noel was caught in a brainstorm, Kruse suddenly asked rhetorically.

"Last time?"

Noel came back to his senses in shock, not knowing what Cruze meant last time.

"Sorry, I forgot that you happened to be on an infiltration mission at that time."

Kruse said as he took out two photos from the drawer and handed them over.

I just don’t know if he really forgot or if he pretended to forget.

Although Noel was confused, he picked up the photo on the table behind his back. However, Noel was stunned at just one glance, because the logo on the top of the machine's head was exactly the same as the one that attacked them.

Didn't it mean there were only five?

Why--

"Those five new MSs are not the only ones in Helipolis. In addition to them, there seem to be three other MSs called heretics!"

"Except for the five mobile suits belonging to the Earth Alliance, two of the remaining three units were taken away by Luo Jure of the scrap recycling dealer and Cong Yungui of the Snake Tail mercenary, and the remaining one is currently unavailable. Whereabouts unknown.”

Kruse seemed to see Noel's doubts and explained.

"————"

Noel was stunned. If he had known earlier that there were eight MSs on it, wouldn't it be nice for me to just buy one and run away?

There are so many things going on behind.

But this is just Noel's self-imagination. After all, with his level of OS, there is a high probability that the three machines behind him will not be able to drive away even if they go up on their own. After all, rewriting the OS is such a thing...

"According to the recently received intelligence, Luo Jure, who holds one of them, is currently heading to the scrap auction organized by the Atlantic Union. I am worried that this uncertainty will affect the Ouroboros operations, so I hope you will It confines.”

After Kruse finished speaking, he suddenly smiled and said: "Of course, if the situation permits, you can also bring it back directly."

"Bring it back?" Noel was stunned. Are these two machines really so important?

"If you find it troublesome, you can destroy it. It's up to you." Kruse said with a smile.
