| Ext. Earth, Outside Brussels: Dorothy Catalonia looks to the
sky. Shooting stars fall to the ground along with the falling snow. The
Serpent troops are landing in Brussels. |
|
Dorothy: |
Looks like angels
have come down with the snow. Hee-hee, it's beautiful… It's going to be a
very memorable Christmas. |
| Title: #4 Earth Under Siege. |
| Ext. Earth, Brussels: Serpent troops are landing in the
streets. |
|
Civilian 1: |
Enemy MS! Were
under attack! |
|
Civilian 2: |
There’s no peace on
Earth this Christmas! Run! |
| Earth, Brussels, Presidential Residence: Dekim and his
troops welcome Mariemaia and Relena to the ESUN headquarters. |
|
Title: |
Brussels, the
E.S.U.N. Executive Mansion |
|
Mariemaia: |
Nice work, Dekim. |
|
Dekim: |
Thank you Madam.
The president fled the capital in the wake of our attack, as expected. The
E.S.U.N. is yours to rule. Welcome Vice Foreign Minister. So nice of you to
join us. |
|
Relena: |
I'm just relieved
that the colony didn't drop on Earth. |
|
Mariemaia: |
You have nothing
more to worry about. I’LL be governing the Earth now. |
|
Relena: |
.... |
| Flashback moment to Heero, standing at the gate of an estate
and speaking to Relena over his shoulder. |
|
Heeero: |
I’ll be back when
you need me. |
| End flashback. |
|
Relena: |
Heero.... |
| Heero flies the shuttle to meet up with Wing Zero, still
encased it its protective wings. |
|
Heero: |
Here she comes. |
| Heero abandons the shuttle and falls through space, landing
and rolling down the surface of his Gundam until he manages to catch and
hold on to the surface. Interior of Wing Zero: Heero, having shed his
spacesuit, powers up his Gundam, disengages the propulsion unit, and Wing
Zero emerges from its protective canopy and heads towards Earth. |
|
Heero: |
Let's go, Zero! To
Earth! |
| Earth, Brussels, Presidential Residence: The building begins
to descend into the ground as Relena watches the passage of metal walls as
they slide past her window. The entire building is lowered into the ground
on a platform and a number of metal panels slide over the space above the
building, securing it from attack. In the residence, Relena and Mariemaia
talk about her plans as the building is secured. |
| MM
Soldier: |
Gates One and Two
are sealed! Shelter secure! |
|
Relena: |
We’re underground? |
|
Mariemaia: |
Uh-huh. The
president's mansion lowers into an underground bunker. Now my castle’s
perfect. Are you surprised such a building still existed in your time of
peace? History is like a waltz… a never-ending dance in three-four time. The
three steps of war, peace, and revolution. An endless waltz. But my
coronation will change history. At the end of AC 196. I’ll be in charge of
the Earth Sphere. A new era begins with the new year. |
| Ext. Altron is floating in space above Earth, Wufei sleeps
in the cockpit. |
|
Title: |
L5 China Colony,
Prior to Operation Meteor. |
| Flashback to Wufei’s colony at the L5 point. Wufei is
arguing with the Clan elders. |
|
Wufei: |
You're going to
drop Altron on Earth with that colony?! Is that what Nataku is for, Master
O?! |
|
Master O: |
Master Ran and I
have decided... it's for the best. |
|
Wufei: |
No way! You say you
built Nataku to defend the colony... that isn’t justice! Why aren’t we
protecting our home?! We should confront OZ in space and protect our people! |
|
Master Ran: |
Chang... you are
right. I leave it up to you. Find justice with Altron. |
|
Wufei: |
Yes, master! |
|
Wufei: |
I’m Chang Wufei! I
won't run or hide! I am justice! |
| Flashback ends, and Wufei awakes to the sight of the
approaching Wing Zero. |
|
Wufei: |
There he comes! |
| Altron launches itself towards Wing Zero and attacks the
other Gundam. |
|
Heero: |
Altron Gundam? |
|
Wufei: |
Heero! I won’t let
you go to Earth! |
|
Heero: |
Chang! Why are you
helping Mariemaia?! |
|
Wufei: |
I don't accept
Relena Peacecraft! |
| Wufei continues to fight Heero above Earth's atmosphere. |
|
Wufei: |
Do you honestly
believe the giving up weapons and soldiers means peace?! |
|
Heero: |
!! |
|
Wufei: |
Humans didn't
change after beating the enemy. Nothing's changed! We just took away the
weapons, not the will! |
|
Heero: |
……. |
|
Wufei: |
Real peace can't be
given! It must be learned! If you want to interfere, you'll have to go
through ME! |
|
Heero: |
Chang! |
| Flashback to: Interior of a large darkened room containing
the Gundam Deathscythe, resting prone on a transport platform. |
|
Title: |
L2 secret MS
storage prior to Operation Meteor. |
| Duo places multiple explosive charges on the body of the MS.
He sets the final explosive and runs outside of the room to stand behind a
doorframe. |
|
Duo: |
There. The bomb’s
in place. That oughta do it. Sorry Deathscythe. But it's time for you to
face the reaper! |
| He holds the detonator control in his hand and prepares to
depress the plunger with his thumb. |
|
Duo: |
Huh? It's not going
off! Come on, you stupid bomb, explode! |
| Duo turns to look back in the room at Deathscythe. |
|
Prof G: |
Duo. It's no use. I
took out the fuses. |
| Duo turns around in surprise and sees Professor G standing
in front of him. Professor G drops a set of fuses to the floor. |
|
Duo: |
Professor G.!! Darn
it! You knew all along, didn't you?! |
|
Prof G: |
Deathscythe’s a
piece of art. Why blow it up? |
|
Duo: |
I won't let it be
used for mass-murder. |
| Duo turns back to look at Deathscythe, and while is
attention is diverted, Professor G walks up to Duo and pulls a pistol from
the folds of Duo's shirt. |
|
Duo: |
Oh! |
|
Prof G: |
So, would you have
killed me to? |
|
Duo: |
If your plan gets
carried out… it will be the death of peace for the entire colony. |
|
Prof G: |
Then why don't you
outsmart me instead? Steal Deathscythe! |
|
Duo: |
What? |
| Prof G tosses the pistol back to Duo and walks away. |
|
Prof G: |
Forget about
Operation Meteor. Go to Earth on your own... as Death. |
|
Duo: |
"Death" sounds
better than mass murder. |
| End flashback and return to the interior of the containment
cell on X-18999. He is sitting, and his hands are cuffed together in front
of him. |
|
Duo: |
Well... it was nice
of them to let me rest in here... but I've got work to do. |
| He reaches into the hair behind his ear and retrieves a
small black object (presumably a small explosive charge). |
|
Duo: |
Heh heh heh Hasta
la vista! |
| Duo kicks the cell door on top of the two guards stationed
outside of it, and runs for the shuttle bay, tossing his handcuffs behind
him. |
|
Duo: |
Aiee! |
| Duo sees the shuttle. |
|
Duo: |
That must be it! |
| Duo enters the cockpit and finds Trowa sitting at the
controls. |
|
Duo: |
You left me in that
cell to rot, you bastard! |
|
Trowa: |
You got out
alright, didn't you? |
| Sally walks up to the control bridge of the shuttle where
Trowa and Duo are waiting. |
|
Sally: |
All of the hostages
have been rescued! Oh, hi, Duo. |
|
Trowa: |
Let's go. |
|
Duo: |
Oh, I get it. |
|
Sally: |
Thanks, Duo... for
leading a piece of the pie for me. |
|
Duo: |
Ha, ha, very funny.
You guys suck!! |
| Int. Preventers headquarters on Earth. Zechs and Une stand
in front of a bank of video monitors and agents update them on the status of
events. |
| Title: Preventers HQ. |
| Agents: The hostages on X-18999 have been rescued, sir! The
executive mansion is heavily shielded. Vulkanus is in Earth orbit!
|
| Another officer approaches and salutes Zechs. |
|
Officer: |
Tallgeese III is
ready, sir! |
|
Zechs: |
Good! |
| Une: |
One Tallgeese can't
beat 470 Serpents. |
|
Zechs: |
It's worth trying. |
| Une: |
Vulkanus has 314 MD
Virgos. They could help you. |
|
Zechs: |
If you don't belay
that order, I'll kill you now. |
| Une: |
.... |
|
Zechs: |
By using MD, we’d
be making the same mistake as White Fang. |
| Une: |
Then how do you
handle all those serpents? |
|
Zechs: |
I told you before
-- I'm going to fight them my way. Sit back and enjoy the show. |
| Une stands back and watches as Zechs leaves the room. |
| Ext. Earth’s atmosphere. Wufei and Heero continue to attack
each other with their Gundams. |
|
Heero: |
Stop it, Chang!
This is useless! |
|
Wufei: |
Coward! Are you a
fighter or not?! |
| The fight continues, even as the two mobile suits begin to
fall through Earth's atmosphere. |
|
Wufei: |
You and I are the
same! We only feel alive when in battle! And we live only to fight! That is
the Warrior’s way! |
|
Heero: |
Chang, our battle’s
over. Treize is gone. You killed him. |
| Flashback to moments of Treize and Wufei dueling. |
|
Treize: |
Wufei, my eternal
friend, I am proud to have fought with you... |
|
Wufei: |
[crying] No! No!
No!! I'm still fighting him! My war isn’t over! |
| On Earth in the city Brussels outside of the Presidential
Residence: Zechs, in the Tallgeese III, and Noin, in the white Taurus mobile
suit, fight against the Serpent mobile suits of Mariemaia's Army. |
|
Zechs: |
You don't have to
do this, Noin. |
|
Noin: |
No, I'll stay by
your side, always. I lost you once a year ago. I won't let it happen again. |
|
Zechs: |
...Okay. |
|
Noin: |
There’s too many!
We can't get through! |
|
Zechs: |
I know, but we must
do this, or no one will stand up for peace! Like the Gundam boys. |
| Ext. Space. In the resource satellite Vulkanus, now
positioned above Earth. Sandrock, Deathscythe, and Heavyarms are all
activated and awaiting the descent to Earth. |
|
Quatre: |
Are you guys
ready?! |
|
Duo: |
Ready when you are! |
|
Trowa: |
We’re doing
Operation Meteor our way. |
|
Quatre: |
Here we go! |
| Sandrock slices open with bay door with two strikes of its
shotels and the three Gundams fly through the atmosphere and towards
Brussels. |
