While on the horizon, the greatest battle of humankind unravels. Quatre: We won't let the data she brought us go to waste. Duo: Yeah.... Duo: Heero... it looks like Relena Peacecraft is on the Libra Heero: Relena? Duo: Yeah.... Seems that Hildy met her there. Heero heading to Wing 0... Heero: *Relena* Relena: (Staring out into space) *Heero* Episode 46 - Milliard's Decisive Battle Narrator:The earth having been targetted by the giant ship, Libra, forced the military to use their superior resources to formulate a counteroffensive. The resource satellite MO-II being the closest to the earth, became the staging point for several thousand space-type Leos. Treize in an attempt to bolster morale of his troops, took his place with those on the front-lines. But there were still voices of doubt about to how well they could stand up against the Libra. Treize stands there regarding the Tallgeese MK-II Soldier: Milord Treize, it's too dangerous to use our entire line in the attack. Treize: The commander of the White Fang, Milliard, is fighting with all his forces. Think of this as a courtesy to him. Soldier: But.... Treize:Mark my words, A war without such courtesies creates nothing but slaughter.... That's why all the wars that have happened on earth have been so sad. [Lady Une lying comatose in hospital bed] [Switch to Hangar Bay] Mechanic: Chief.... isn't that the suit that was abandoned at Luxemborg? Chief: Yeah... but it's still a marvelous unit. Mechanic: But his lordship, Treize's already gone up into space. What's the point in mounting boosters? Chief: I don't leave things half finished. Mechanic: Still... there's no one left on this earth capable of piloting this suit.... [Giant Battleship Peacemillion] Duo floats down one of the corridors and ends up in the mess hall(?) Duo: Where he go off to, that Heero? Trowa: (reading a book) He took off in a Virgo carrier recovered from the White Fangs. It's obvious where he's headed. Duo: But, he left behind the Zero! Does he plan on facing Zechs with his bare hands? Wufei doing some exercises with some weird hand-held device. Wufei: I don't know how, but he'll manage it somehow.... Quatre: (smiling softly) No, I don't think that's his only purpose. Duo: Hey, you can't mean that he went off to rescue that missy? Quatre: Yes Wufei: Then I've been giving him too much credit.... Out of all of us, I thought he was the most serious guy. Trowa: That's not true... It just means that she's able to spur someone like Heero to action. Wufei: *snort* Trowa: Wufei.... When Heero brings Relena back, at the very least give her some sort of greeting.... females are more easily hurt than you. Wufei: (grimly silent) ...... Duo: Hey Quatre... If we're going to go after him, shouldn't we head out now? Quatre: We can't afford to deplete the defenses of the Peacemillion right now.... Besides, we shouldn't get in the way of those two. Duo: You guys really think he's going to pull it off? He has failed before! [Damaged Virgo Carrier headed towards Libra] Heero: This is the Peacemillion attack unit 02.... Propulsion power defense system (?) hit on the port side, coming in for an emergency landing. Comm: This is the Libra bridge. Please confirm the number of survivors. Identification numbers- Heero: There are no survivors... Heero cuts off communications and flies the carrier straight into one of the hangars. Comm: Hey! Wait! Open up communications! Hey! Man: Careful! It's very possible that there's a saboteur in there. Status on the fire? Man2: We're working on it! Our hands are full! Someone floats out of the carrier. Man: Hey you! Seal off this block! No one gets out. Heero: Rodger..... Libra bridge.... Quinze: You let an infiltrator slip through!? Fools! You let it happen again? I told you to be ready for this!! Zechs: Calm down. I was prepared for this eventuality.... But it came sooner than I'd anticipated. Quinze: Huh? Zechs: I suppose I should say that the gundam pilots live up to their name. Dorthy: What do you have in mind, Milliard-sama? Zechs: As long as they've made their presence known, there's nothing but for me to make mine known. Dorthy: But there's been no confirmation of the infiltrator yet. Zechs: It has to be him.... Heero Yuy. Relena's Room Relena is staring out the window Relena: ...... The sound of door opening. Relena continues to stare at the window. Relena: I have nothing to say to anyone but my elder brother..... Please, there's no need to worry about me...... Heero: (off camera) I can't allow that. Relena: ......!! (She looks pretty happy) Heero stands at the door. Heero: With you here, Neun and the others are shaken in their resolve. Relena: I'd have never thought that you would come for me, Heero. Heero: (turning to leave) Let's go...... Relena: Wait! I still..... Heero: Zechs? Do whatever you need.... I have matters to settle with him as well. Heero leaves first, followed by a smiling Relena. Tallgese MK-II standing on a carrier with a horde MS's behind it OZ: Coordinates adjusted. Target. Libra Inside a computer room aboard the Libra Relena: What are you doing? Heero: That girl, Hildy..... The data she brought us on this ship is of some use.... he's apparently not on the bridge at the moment..... Relena: Where is my brother? Heero: He can only be in one of several places. Relena: You truly are a wonder, Heero.... Heero: I'm nothing compared to you.... Relena: No, you give me the strength and hope to live.... you must do the same for others..... Heero: Don't make me repeat myself.... I'm nothing compared to you.... Relena: ... I-! Heero: Come. I've found Zechs. Relena: What?! Somwhere on the Libra Zechs: So you finally show yourself. Relena: Brother! Zechs: Relena... I thought our conversation was over. Relena: No. Not yet. Zechs: I will not change my mind Monitor flares to life showing the OZ attack force. Zechs: This is what Treize is doing. The Libra must take on this huge armada. Relena: Stop this immediately. It's meaningless! Zechs: No it's not. Even if this was only a cowardly offensive, there's more than enough meaning in it. Relena: Brother.... Heero: I don't know what's going on between Treize and you, but don't involve others. Zechs:This war must involve many others.... This is problem is related to the hope of all mankind. Heero: Is this why you became a representative to the colonies? Zechs: The colonies toyed with the will to fight, and continued the path to arms.... Chose me as their leader.... If you have problems with that, then you as a native of the colonies should take command of the White Fang. Zechs:In other words.... become my comrade. [Commercial Break] Dorthy: At long last... Treize-sama? Quinze: Lady Dorthy.... The Libra's units are ready and the main array has finished charging... Dorthy: Let's wait for Milliard-sama. Quinze: But at this rate.... Dorthy: We should be following Milliard-sama's wishes. Isn't that so? Quinze: True... but... [Back to Heero and Zechs] Heero: Comrade? ..... I see.... You would say that. Heero raises the gun and aims it at Zechs. Zechs: Is that your answer? Heero: Does the person who finds so much meaning in this war have something to say? Zechs: Unless one fights, one cannot realise the stupidity of war.... I must make all of humankind realise this. Heero: Why have you chosen to fill that role? Zechs: The former leader of the colonies, Heero Yuy, with the Cinque Kingdom attempted to establish complete peace. Zechs: One in space.... one on the earth. Relena: Father-? Zechs: I am merely following my father's will. Relena: Father's will?! You're saying that this battle... this miserable war will bring about the complete peace that the Cinque Kingdom advocates? Zechs: That is correct. Relena: No, you're wrong. Peace cannot be born out of fighting! Zechs: And that's fine..... Keep thinking that.... Heero: (lowering gun) Understood.... Heero: (To Relena) That's enough isn't it? Your role is over. Heero turns to leave. Relena: Heero! Zechs: Relena..... No matter what happens.... survive through this.... Farewell, sister of mine. His image fades. Relena: Brother! .... A holographic projection? Relena going after Heero Relena: (very distressed) Heero!? Zechs stepping back onto the Libra's bridge Quinze: Enemy units are in range. Zechs: The charge on the main array? Dorthy: Complete. But... they're comprised of mobile suits.... Zechs: Of course... I'll send out an advisory. But depending on Treize's response, we may have to fire. I want to eliminate all sentimentality when dealing with him. Dorthy: U-Understood.... [Back to the earth forces] Comm: Milord, An advisory has come in, it's from Commander Milliard of the White Fang. He says that if we continue the advance, he'll fire the Libra array. Treize: Acknowledged. Tallgeese's arm is raised signalling halt. Treize: This is Treize Khushrenada. All troops halt. Treize glances around. Treize: Stand by, until I order otherwise. Tallgeese jets off towards the Libra OZ: Your lordship!? Where are you going!? Wait! Milord!!! Back on earth, Lady Une suddenly awakens. WF1: Special enemy unit approaching. Quinze: Launch Libra's units! Zechs: Belay that order! Quinze: Commander Milliard....? Zechs: That's the Tallgeese.... and the pilot is most likely.... Treize: (on screen) This is the world sovereign, Treize Khushenada. I challenge the White Fang's leader, commander Milliard to a duel. Quinze: A duel?! How very OZ. WF1: Is he serious? WF2: Yes. That's his usual method. Dorthy: Treize-sama.... Zechs: Hmph. Back on earth.... Une's bed is empty. Mechanics are running and stop to watch a white streak head up into space. Treize before the giant spaceship Libra. (in Tallgeese MK-II) Treize: Will you give me your answer.... Commander Milliard? Zechs: (on monitor) ..... Treize: Try not to forget that your answer will include your response regarding this battle. Zechs: The duel ... Treize: ..... Zechs: Is declined! Dorthy: What?! Treize: *amused sound* Dorthy: W-Why.... Milliard-sama? Zechs: I'm not an "OZ" soldier.... I am in a position where I the code of knights does not matter.... I bear the will of the space revolution!! Zechs: I can't allow such a frivolous thing as a duel to decide the fate of the colonists. Treize: (eyes closed) I see.... That is the correct choice. Zechs: Treize.... those who stand in the way will be removed!! Treize: Milliard... Behind us is the earth...We will not retreat. Treize: I love the earth... Zechs: That's what makes you Treize. Dorthy: Please wait, Milliard-sama! Zechs: Prepare the main array for firing... Target, enemy mobile suits spread to include the resource satellite MO-II. Quinze: Use the main array on the Tallgeese?! Zechs: It doesn't matter.... it's what Treize wants!! Dorthy: (standing in front of Zechs) Milliard-sama, please reconsider!! Please, anything but don't fire upon Trieze! Zechs: Quinze... restrain Dorthy. She's a traitor. Quinze: Yes. Quinze points a gun at Dorthy Dorthy: ..... Milliard-sama. Back to the Tallgeese MK-II Treize: Forward! Puts the thrusters on full. WF: Enemy unit approaching! Zechs: (thinking) It ends here, Trieze! WF: Main array, charging complete! Treize: If I die here, your victory is assured. Fire at me! For the sake of peace on the colonies and earth! Zechs: My enemy is the earth.... and you it's representative.... Treize! WF: Countdown Initiated. Zechs: Move over. I'll finish him myself. Man moves out of seat and Zechs takes his place. Zechs begins to push down on the button. Dorthy: (throwing herself at Zechs) Don't! Don't! Under no circumstances! Zechs: Don't get in my way! This is the path to peace! Zechs pushes and fires A rapidly approaching object, resolves itself into Gundam Wing bird-mode. It transforms and pushes Treize out of the way of the shot. Zechs: 01?! Treize: Wing Gundam?!.... It can't be.... The beam cuts a big hole through the earth forces and takes out a chunk of MO-II. Back to a really mutilated Wing Gundam. The hatch is forced open and woman steps out (in an astrosuit of course) Treize gasps in surprise. Treize: Lady.... Une..... Libra's bridge Dorthy: Milliard-sama.... Zechs: That's enough... Don't say a thing. Quinze: How long until the array can be fired a second time? WF1: One-hundred and fourty minutes are necessary for the charge. WF2: Mobile Suits approaching from behind! They're.... earth forces! We're being targetted from both directions! Quinze: Shit! Launch the Libra's units. Quinze: (little snidely) You don't mind do you... Commander Milliard? Zechs remains silent, shaking with anger. Back to Treize and Lady Une Lady Une floats up from the ruins of Wing Gundam and lands on Tallgeese's hand. Treize: Lady.... Why such recklessness? Une: Treize-sama.... a battle is most beautiful when it's being fought. Treize: To all units.... Shoot down the Libra! Earth force Leo's launch. Libra's Virgo's launch. Lotsa MS's!
