Episode 27: The Miracle of Victory and Defeat


Relena: “Yes, it’s true. I don’t know where Heero’s been. Don’t laugh, Father. But I can still hear Heero’s voice. Father, I still believe that he will show up one day in Sank Kingdom. Well, how much time has passed since the day I met him? At the time, I was in a shuttle with you, on its way to Earth.


    >Relena: “What is it, Father?”


Relena: “I met Heero Yuy, the one the colony placed all of its dreams upon.


    >Heero: “Hahahahaha. One left.”


Heero: “Everything began here. My code name: Heero Yuy. My duty consisted of one thing. Destroy OZ.”


    >Relena: “He’s just a kid.”
    >Heero: “Did you see it?”
    >Relena: ‘What?”
    >Doctor: “Here! Hurry up! You are…”
    >Relena: “I’m…I’m Relena Darlian. Who are you?”


Relena: “Until then, I hadn’t done anything to deserve the happiness I had. But when I met him, my destiny was changed drastically.”


    >Relena: “He…he is…”
    >Heero: “I’m Heero Yuy. Nice to meet you.”
    >Relena: “// It must be him. //”
    >Relena: “This is for you. It’s for my birthday, tomorrow. Of course, you will come.”
    >Relena: “How…cruel…”
    >Heero: “I will kill you.”


Heero: “I wasn’t the only one who was ordered to come down to Earth in Operation Meteor. Pilot of Gundam HeavyArms, Trowa Barton. Pilot of Gundam Sandrock, Quatre Raberba Winner.”


    >Quatre: “This is wrong. Wrong… We shouldn’t fight each other! We shouldn’t… Please stop
                     it. Let me be the first to show myself.”


    >Noin: “Stop! Stop or I’ll shoot you! A kid? This boy… This boy destroyed the base all by
                 himself?”
    >WuFei: “A woman? This is why you’re still immature.”


Heero: “Pilot of Gundam Sheng Long, Chang WuFei.


    >Soldier: “What is this light? It’s the enemy! The enemy!”


Heero: “And pilot of Gundam DeathScythe, Duo Maxwell.”


    >Relena: “Heero, what are you doing? Please tell me. Who are you? That must be a torpedo. I knew it. I want to know you. Talk to me, Heero!”
    >Heero: “Relena…”
    >Relena: “Heero…”
    >Heero: “You know too much already.”
    >Duo: “In this case, whoever you are, you’re the bad guy. Is everything okay, lady?”
    >Relena: “Are you alright, Heero?”
    >Duo: “Don’t move! You’re the one that’s hurt!”
    >Relena: “Stop it! What has he done to you? What is that?”
    >Duo: “You shouldn’t be seeing anything. Well, lady, you better get out of here. You seem to
                 be mixed up in all of this though. This is for your sake. Do you still want to fight with
                 me?”


Heero: “I don’t think of the other Gundam pilots as friends. Actually, I haven’t had a friend from the very beginning. This guy Duo is just like Relena. They’re just annoyances keeping me from my duty.”


    >Heero: “This is it, for me. Mission completed.”


Relena: “At that time, Father, you strongly believed in peace for the Earth and the colonies.


    >General Septim: “I have received your report, Prime Minister Darlian. I’m asking you to
                                    please step down.”
    >Darlian: “You should know by now. The ones who are truly dangerous are yourselves.”


Relena: “You’ve taken me to space once again. I guess, Father, that this was the last of your kindness. You’ve shown me how beautiful the Earth truly is.”


    >Relena: “Father! What are you doing to my father?”
    >Darlian: “Relena.”
    >Relena: “Father!”
    >Darlian: “I’m not your real father. Your real name is Relena Peacecraft. You are the
                     daughter of the Peacecraft family, who has sung the song of absolute
                     pacifism since long ago.”
    >Relena: “That’s a lie!”
    >Darlian: “OZ… Beware of OZ.”
    >Relena: “Father! Father! NO!!!”


    >Heero: “This will erase all the data there is about Heero Yuy from St. Gabriel’s computer
                    banks. The transfer is complete.”
    >Relena: “Are you going out to fight again? Where is your next tour of duty?”


Relena: I’ve kept so many secrets, but the fact that you’re a Gundam pilot from one of the colonies is the most surprising for me. I think that’s influenced me a lot.”


    >Relena: “Heero, I guess I know too much. I think I’m going to be killed.”
    >Heero: “Yeah.”
    >Relena: “I didn’t want to die without knowing anything. But it’s different now. I understand
                     why you fight. Now, I’m fighting alongside Heero.”
    >Heero: “With me?”
    >Heero: “What am I doing? It’d be better for me if she were to die. Why?!”
    >Relena: “Heero! Don’t runaway. Please, Heero.”


<commercial break>


Relena: “The High Commander of the Earth Area United Federation, General Noventa, had started negotiations for peace with the colonies. He also considered arms reduction. However, the leader of OZ, Treize Khushrenada, was able to twist information being transmitted to the pilots, and gathered Heero and the others together at New Edwards Base. And through trickery, had the Federation Army exterminated at the hands of the Gundams.”


    >General Noventa: “Don’t regret it, young ones.”
    >Treize: “The hopes for peace have ended.”


Relena: (Uh…there aren’t any subtitles at this part. ^^;;; But she’s talking about Operation Daybreak: the Specials revolting from the inside and taking over Federation Army bases)


    >Noin: (Still no subtitles.) “Can’t you tell? The revolution is here.” (?_?)
    >Zechs: “The time of the Federation is over. True unification must be done by OZ alone.”


Heero: “Moreover, one of OZ’s officers, Lady Une, had suggested sending Space Mobile Suit Tauruses to patrol the White Siberia Base. But, it was only a ploy for destroying all the Gundams.”


    >Rashid: “Are the other Gundams coming?”
    >Quatre: “There’s nothing we can do. But I’m sure that the other four will come.”
    >Heero: “It’s fast!”
    >Zechs: “I see that you’re my strongest rival in a fight. I shouldn’t refuse the offer, as a pilot of
                   a Gundam.”
    >Une: “I didn’t expect a Gundam to have this much power. Contact Space Fortress Bulgi.
                Attention Gundam pilots. We will attack the colony with a missile barrage. The pilots
                will surrender now, and hand over the Gundams to us.”
    >Quatre: “The colony is being targeted.”
    >Duo: “Hand over the Gundams?”
    >Trowa: “It must be OZ.”
    >Dr J: “Listen up, OZ. I never thought that you were such a bunch of fools. You don’t care
                about attacking the colony. For you, it’s just one more victory, and that I understand.
                Therefore, we will surrender to you. However, we will not relinquish the Gundams to
                you. I repeat, we will surrender, but we will not hand over the Gundams to you as well.”
    >Heero: “Mission understood.”


Relena: “You’re fighting your fight, Heero. I’m heading to my own battlefield. The Romefeller Foundation thinks that they can maintain peace by controlling everything. It would be possibly under a state of Martial Law. But to become leader of the world after killing so many people, I will not allow it. Especially as the leader of the Sank Kingdom, Relena Peacecraft.”


Heero: “I’ve failed the mission. I couldn’t do anything because they took the colony as a hostage. But Zechs rebuilt my Gundam and wanted to fight in Siberia. We ended up fighting in Antarctica. I didn’t take Zechs up on his offer. I used Trowa’s HeavyArms. But what is this fight for anyway? A battle between a man looking for something to protect, and a man who has forgotten how to protect didn’t make any sense at all.”


Relena: “The mistakes you made in the past were harsh on everyone. But we’re still young. We should focus on the future. Heero, I’ve been thinking that I want to end this foolish war.”


    >Noin: “It has begun.”
    >Zechs: “That’s what I was waiting for. This is the final strike.”
    >Relena: “Heero!”
    >Zechs: “What?!”
    >Relena: “Stop this fight right now!”
    >Zechs: “You have to see with your own eyes how dirty battle really is.”
    >Relena: “It’s too horrible! You can’t do that if you truly are a soldier, or even a Knight
                     of the Peacecrafts.”
    >Pargan: “Miss Relena. This is from Special Envoy Noin.”
    >Relena: “Miss Noin. I must have misunderstood you. I’ve always believed you to be so
                     faithful…”
    >Noin: “That’s right. I know there’s nothing I can say to you to make up for what has
                  happened. But when Zechs gives orders to have something done, there can be no
                  argument made to challenge his wishes.”
    >Relena: “Heero! Kill Zechs!”
    >Noin: “No! Miss Relena, no matter what path destiny places you on, please don’t wish for the
                 death of your own brother.”
    >Relena: “Brother? My brother?”


Relena: “It was at this time that I discovered that Zechs was my brother.”


    >Soldier: “There are many carriers coming in at 3 o’clock.”
    >Zechs: “Finally…”
    >Trowa: “Can you hear me, Heero and Zechs. There are about 30 carriers? incoming. And if I
                    count the Aries right, there could be almost 100 of them.”
    >Zechs: “I’ll get them all myself. Glory to the colonies! See you again, Heero!”
    >Heero: “Zechs!”


Heero: “Which one will I fight next, Zechs Merquise or Milliard Peacecraft? Whoever it is, if they get in the way of my duty, I’ll just kill them. If you are my enemy, I will kill you.”


Relena: “Since then, my brother and Heero have not seen each other. The world has become even more confused. And now OZ has split into two factions, which have kept up this stupid fight with each other. But I know one thing; you will come before me again to finish this war. Heero! Hurry back from wherever you are and come back to me soon!”
