Okay, time to try again and make something better! Hi I'm Tony no one here will know me but I use to make a small Gundam Seed OC fanfic a few years back.

After reading that OC story I didn't like its direction or the wording I put into it, the concept however was something I liked. So today will be a modern and new me kind of deal. If I get facts wrong I'm sorry I am trying to re-watch the anime to make sure I have everything right so here goes nothing!

Aside from weapon techs and stuff nothing too crazy from me and no long pieces of info on units if there are any customs they will be explained through the story itself just like the anime would do some what.

Without further ado, let the story begin.

Chapter 1

Time of Black

Sherwod PA, 2017

In a cold winter day with not a single spec of snow on the ground even if it was at the end of November class was in session as always for most schools. From the college level, down to elementary; students were trying to wrap up all they can do with the time remaining before Christmas break. It was the one time of the year most students can't wait for when the school year starts; it was their only long break during the school year that was more than a week after all.

Most classes are either trying to play catch up over lost time or trying to end the lessons earlier than the last day. Most just hope to end on a note in which they can start fresh on the day they all come back in the following January. But there are good classes and there are bad classes and for this high school its technology classes well… They are not the best-

"01001000, it's an example of binary that can be put into the uh…. Machine here that can then be translated into a simple word: Does anyone know letter that matches this?" Said an old man who was fiddling with his ears which had hearing aids in them.

Hearing aids, okay this old man is the teacher of one of midway programming course who was going back and forth from advanced to basic with nothing of it being applied or taught in a way for everyone to really understand.

So, when there was complete and utter silence was something that can be cut with a simple knife. It was clear these lessons were terrible; yet, people stayed either due to dreams or hopes. Those dreams and hopes are probably shattered by now with the fault entirely being the school for hiring the wrong person for the job.

The teacher obviously understood all of this, but the students didn't with a few unsure if they should attempt and make a fool of themselves, or just be silent and wait for one of the smart kids to answer. A yawn broke the silence a bit from the 2nd row of computers catching the teacher's attention.

"Ah yes… Jack would you like to give it a try?" Asked the teacher.

Poor old Jack is about to be sacrificed for the sake of the lesson and everyone else here. Jack who was a football player doing programming so he can have a back up plan just stared in silence as if he was prey in the predator's trap before guessing.

"F-F… ?" Is all Jack said before there was a slam to the whiteboard.

"No! Come on, this is something that has come up time and time again with these lessons!" The teacher stated. "Mia do you know?"

"Uh… No Mr. Bee…" Mia stated softly, she was always at the top 10 on the hottest girls list on student boards yet.

"Just take a guess Mia…" The now named teacher, Mr. Bee, pleaded. Mia thought for a minute looking around then looking to the teacher again.

"E?" Mia questioned her choice but still said something at least which satisfied Mr. Bee to an extent.

The teacher failed to see the point that sets of binaries was hard to understand unless someone learned all sets of binaries down to a t, it wasn't just for letters after all making it even harder. The pain to even attempt this was hard to bear for everyone here so no one would blame the popular kids for failing.

"Close, we are getting warmer but that isn't right. Good job Mia." Mr. Bee stated to help add some confidence back to the room then looked around before looking toward the back. "How about you Yuianna?" Mr. Bee asked.

There was a sigh of relief in the room and for good reason; the smartest kid in the class was just called on as if to end the suffering of everyone. Yuianna, was a girl with white shoulder length hair with a small ribbon going through the back of her hair to help keep it from coming to the front of her face. The ribbon was a light blue color but was hidden mostly from view due to her head as she looked up.

"H." Is what Yuianna simply said before Mr. Bee nodded.

"Correct!" Mr. Bee stated with no surprise in his or the students faces before pointing at the board. "The riddle was in the fact that the start for all teachings and examples in programming is Hello World! With H being at the start of it." Mr. Bee stated before moving on with the lesson his voice having confidence.

"As demonstrated by Jack and Mia's attempts at the code, binary is impossible to memorize due to the wide range of characters and letters there are and with each character requiring this long list of numbers. Mr. Bee stated then looked at Yuianna. "Yuianna what would make it easier for us to understand this?"

Yuianna just stared with a small sigh. "Binary converter." She said simply again getting another nod from Mr. Bee.

"Yes, yes! With a converter it will be made easier which is the key idea for programmers: The need to make our jobs less expensive! Aka, using less code or work." Mr. Bee explained. "You three will all receive 5 points for your efforts." Mr. Bee checked the time.

"That will be all for today however, this is just a look at binary we will cover the rest on it on your last few weeks. Before you all ask, you don't worry about studying or memorizing the binary codes. Have a good weekend!" Mr. Bee stated with a wave before students slowly walked out of the classroom one by one, it was the last class of the day after all.

Yuianna sighed as she slowly got up and began to save the work she was doing on her computer which was filled with binary text and other sets of code on it. She looked up noticing Mia coming to her as she got her stuff together.

"Good as always huh Yui?" Mia asked, Yui was her nickname set by friends and fellow students. Even Yui herself preferred it.

"It is going to be my career after all, being good at code is a must." Yui stated to Mia before looking back at her stuff ejecting her flash drive and putting it into her bag. "Also, don't look at me for an answer every second of class. It makes me uncomfortable."

Mia sweats a bit leaning into Yui gently hand on the computer desk. "H-Hey don't leave me out to dry! I'm struggling here!"

Yui giggles a bit herself. "Sure, sure. But that was something you wouldn't get anyways so just relax." Yui stated, it sounded bad to say but it was the truth.

Mia pouts crossing her arms. "Unfair! You must have cheated then!"

Yui rose an eyebrow at Mia just staring at her before Mia sweats bullets then looks down with a sigh. "Right forgot, your one of those types that remembers everything."

Yui shook her head picking up her bag. "Yeah, yeah. Its unfair I get ya." Yui stated as herself and Mia left the classroom.

Mia rubbed the back of her head walking beside Yui after they walk past the door. "Can't help it! Sorry Ms. Brainiac!" Mia stated as a joke.

"Keep talking eyes of cupid." Yui joked looking at Mia with a trollish grin as if mocking Mia who blushed hard.

"H-Hey shut up! If people found out that I…" Mia looked around as if there was paparazzi around, which for Mia there always was until now. "L-Liked Jack they would freak."

Remember when Yui said until now? She was wrong hearing a chuckle and a guy with glasses comes out carrying a set of pictures in their hand. "Jeez, I wonder what the great and perfect Mia just said… I heard the word like an- "Then POW there goes glasses.

"Lane! Newspaper Club isn't allowed any of those pictures!" Mia stated to the now named Lane. Lane simply got up patting himself off as if he has experienced this pain before… Cause he has… That was time number 56.

Yui brought out a notepad out of thin air writing something down. "Now there is 0 days without incident…"

"What was my record this time?" Lane asked Yui who was now standing beside her suddenly.

"…Do you really want to know?" Yui asked as if it was a warning.

"Try me- "

"30 minutes…" Yui stated and Lane was black and white suddenly with a broken expression before color returned with only red following Lane.

"Goddammit!" Lane slowly brought out his wallet handing Yui a set of 200 bucks. "Here just take it…"

Yui just grins with an evil giggle. "Thank you, Lane, you are funding the revolution quite well!"

Mia just stared at Yui then Lane before sighing. "Really bets you two? Can you at least delete the photos?"

"Already did from his computer during last period, I gave him the photos." Yui stated making Lane go silent then stare at Yui.

"You-!" Yui was gone when Lane turned to face her. "Huh?" He looked right then left seeing that Yui and Mia were gone completely. "YUI!"

After a set of 10 minutes evading Lane's wrath through the hallways and a lucky pair of teachers Yui and Mia made it out of the school and were now on their way home Yui still giggling softly to herself with a small drool going down her lip which Mia gets rid of with a cloth.

"Honestly Yui calm down…" Mia said softly getting a shake of a no from Yui's head.

"No… This is awesome though, with this I can finally get myself a Nintendo Switch! All of those days trying to save up enough through streaming and doing programming jobs were now worth it!" Yui shouted to Mia excited.

Mia simply sighed moving a strand of hair behind her ear. "Honestly… You're an idiot when it comes to money but smart when it comes to technology."

Yui stared at Mia eye twitching a bit. "B-But…"

Mia just giggled a bit. "Make sure to let me have a spin or two as well. You did use me for this after all."

Yui frowns a bit. "Fine… But no apologies to Lane!"

Mia nodded simply. "Wouldn't even think to make you do that."

As they both walked they began to go through a small market district of the town they lived in, it was known as Sherwood that was within the county that housed Pittsburgh an old city that was revitalizing its steel city roots for a more focus on tech and medical focus. It was to Yui's own benefit as well with the type of career she was going with.

The small market district was silent however which surprised Mia and Yui before they saw people gathered at TVs that was protected behind glass windows but was still flashing a national news station on it. Mia and Yui stopped with Yui looking to an elderly man.

"Excuse me what is going on Mr. Charles?" Yui asked.

Mr. Charles looked at Yui smiling. "Oh, Yuianna nice to see you… Or well maybe it's the opposite." He stated before pointing at the TVs. "It seems North Korea is getting more hostile; another missile fell down in the waters off of Alaska."

Yui was silently watching the TVs then was confused. "Is it big?" She asked Mr. Charles who nodded. "Analysts are warning something big is coming and we need to be prepared for it. Luckily we are all the way on the east coast but…" Yui shook her head before he finished.

"I get it Mr. Charles, no need to say more. You be safe." Yui stated before walking onward pulling Mia a bit who stopped Yui. There was a pause before Yui looked to Mia confused. "Mia?"

"Y-Yui look." Mia stated pointing at the screen making Yui look again before her eyes widen seeing a horrible sight of a big giant fireball being shown on screen. "I-It was in Portland!"

Yui was confused, North Korea just fired a single missile where did the second one come from? She looked over at all the shocked faces knowing this was probably going to lead to something bad. Mia's grip to her was tight however, the poor girl didn't want to let go of Yui forcing Yui to put a hand on Mia's hand to help calm her down.

She closed her eyes a bit then opened them before hearing something loud making her eyes go wide before turning seeing nothing but red and orange before smoke and high winds followed breaking the glass of all the nearby stores. Yui and Mia were forced onto their backs along with the crowd some of them falling into the broken window with only a few cuts.

Yui tried to get up slowly holding tightly to Mia but the force of the winds is too strong as a few of the building began to crack threatening to break apart any minute. She grits her teeth trying to get up then looked behind her seeing that the fireball was quickly expanding, the fireball looked weird to her a bit. It wasn't red and orange like she initially thought but green and black as it expands further and further.

She slowly got up trying to pull Mia up with her. "We need to go!" Yui shouted trying to move even a bit with Mia who was shocked and clinging to Yui as the fireball was barreling onto the town. This was the one time she wished she was strong physically but no matter how strong she was it was possible that wouldn't matter. The buildings across the street were engulfed before soon all Yui saw was green then black darkness and a scream.

? - 2017

In a small conference room, a circle of people was looking on through a large screen at the results of two disasters on not only the west coast city of Portland but the east coast city of Pittsburgh. The circle simply stares as both areas and the surrounding areas were engulfed with green fire instead of the reported red and orange from the news.

"The plan seems to have gone on without a hitch Party Head Arthur. Shall we break out the drinks now?" Ask a man who was smoking a cigar before putting it out.

A man wearing white resting on his hand sitting at a seat that seemed to be at a part of the table where there was a cut making room for a head of the group. The man named Arthur smiled a bit as he watched the chaos unfolding.

"Yes, I'm surprised it worked so well. I thought our little rat was so confident about beating us before we commenced our plan, but we got to the little animal before they did. Did we ever find out who they were by the way?" Arthur asked.

"No sir, but we did confirm they were either in Portland or Pittsburgh due to a failure in the binary code. But that is all we know." Said a man in a gray suit messing with a chessboard. "But it seems we did more than just silence them."

Arthur grinned a bit. "We are now at the heart of this world, with everyone following along our strings everyone. Now we can make way for war and a platform for our organization to rise. All we have to do is blame the Koreans…"

Another image popped up on the screen with a face of a reaper with thorns growing around the face. "The hacker known as Cell is dead. Let us rejoice." Arthur stated raising a glass to everyone before there was a beep.

The man who was smoking a cigar looked at a computer then standing abruptly. "S-Sir!"

"Hm? What is it Warren?" Arthur inquired.

"C-Cell! They sent a message!" Warren turned the monitor showing the same symbol turning to a halo ring with wings then a set of swords being placed in a crossword shape with a simple message below.

"Reaper turns to Angel. Cell lives on as:

ARCH"

The monitor then turns black leaving the circle of men to be silent as they may have won the battle, but their quest to finding this hacker that was the bane of Arthur's existence was still out there.

Arthur stood up slamming the table to get the attention of his members then stared at them all with a death glare. "Members of Blue Cosmos, they might still be alive, but we shall make it a goal of this organization that will rule this Earth for years to come to do the following: We shall catch that stupid hacker even if it takes generations!"

? - ?

Boom. Boom… Boom… It was a constant sound of explosions and destruction that could be heard over and over, it was as if Michael Bay was trying to film Transformers: The Explosion War or something like it. That didn't distract the fading and going of the one lonely Yuianna, if this was heaven it was driving her nuts at the idea of a constant battle going on. The sound of heavy very heavy-duty machines was throwing her off making her think this was maybe hell but that didn't sound right either.

Then was she alive? But how? A nuke would kill anyone… but as her mind flashes back to that scene as she tried to wake up and move she remembers that the nuke wasn't normal. Regardless of her concerns however she needed to get up and move, if there was a battle going on she was a sitting duck at this point. Her head was pounding with her ears ringing as she was slowly opening her eyes seeing white before seeing… Cities?

She blinked thinking she might be dead; but, no there were cities in the sky or what should be a sky as she very, very slowly opened and closed her eyes to make sure of this. If this was a dream it was too real, and her pain was too much for a simply dream. Even nightmares don't get this vivid only presenting slight mental scarring.

She very slowly tried to get up but held her head instantly feeling it pound more and more then slowly removed her head seeing red; blood, is what she thought instantly, and it wasn't light her entire hand was covered in it making her concerned as she slowly began to try and stand gritting her teeth feeling her leg stinging but it was fine after a bit.

She assessed her current damage worried about her head, she had cuts and bumps all over with her right leg feeling a bit weak and in pain. She slowly looked around seeing buildings around her crumbling or on fire making her thing she was still in Sherwood but no, the buildings were too tall. She turned forward seeing a giant building ahead making her very slowly move forward using a wall for support as she moved with a small limp.

She stopped though hearing something being fired loudly, louder than a gun as something whistled by above her before hearing an explosion making her fall against the wall she was using as support as the area shook. Where was she? She looked up to get her bearings only to see something she would never expect to see.

Above her was a giant metal machine in the shape of a human being wielding a gun in a size for the human machine to wield. It reminded her of a few mecha anime that she watched back at home. Was this a dream about that? No, she barely watches those! So, what was going on here?!

The Machine began to move again luckily not in her path as she began to try and move again coming out to an opening with military vehicles that made her sigh in relief thinking they were the US military. She made her way slowly without support toward the vehicles for cover to try and get her bearings one of her eyes closed due to the blood running down her face a bit her white hair becoming a mix of red and white.

Yui pants a bit once she had a hand on one of the vehicles to support herself then looked around at where she was at, it was an area it seemed with quite a few military vehicles most of them on fire however or destroyed. She moved forward slowly covering her mouth a bit from seeing a few dead bodies lying around burned or simply dead. It was a horrid sight, but she needed to find someone to help her and hoped the huge building had some.

Judging from its size she figured it was a hanger of some kind meaning she would need to move to the front, she followed the wall hearing explosion after explosion then a sudden sound of gunfire that she probably didn't hear due to the explosions as she slowly made her way to the open hanger doors. She turned her body to lay up against the will next to the opening then peers into the space inside seeing dead bodies around with a guy being shot in front of her eyes by men in red suits.

Wait… Men? No… From the size and height, they were not men but teenagers from the look of things. Teenage soldiers? It was madness in her head, but it was hurting with seeing way too much for one lifetime already. All she knew is that she found people, but a gun battle was going on making it difficult to approach for help.

She looked around for something to protect herself with but there was nothing as she peered back inside then slowly poked herself out of her hiding spot before seeing one of the red suits being shot just as an explosion occurred within the hanger making her think this was more than a hanger.

Something got through to her train of thought however, "Rusty!" Making her eyes light up not in surprise but fear as the origin of the voice was from the other red suit who was peering straight at her body that was now frozen but her weak leg gave in making her fall onto her knees holding her leg in pain.

The red suit boy was staring at her way before looking forward shooting away it seems before running, she had hoped it was away from her. But no, the boy was running at her making her surprised as she was grabbed by her arm making her gasp in pain surprising the boy until he saw her injuries making him calm down then gently wrapped her arm around his should then was helped up.

"W-Why are you…" She began to say.

"Quiet! Questions later we need to get out of here now." The boy said as he helped her move toward some sort of machine that reminded her of the other machine she saw due to the color. I looked around with my eyes seeing a woman who was holding her shoulder and being helped by a young boy as well. The woman was holding a gun and was about to shoot but stopped when Yui was spotted forcing the woman to lower her weapon.

Yui didn't understand what was going on, she didn't know who was who or where she was but she was helped up on top of the machine that she could see clearly her blood staining the metal a bit as the boy opened a hatch at the chest of the machine making her see something like a cockpit.

"W-What is this thing?" She asked quietly but didn't get an answer as she was forced into the machine hearing more explosions as the hanger was slowly going up in flames.

It was slightly cramp, but it felt safe as she was placed on the side of the cockpit away from the seat which the red suit boy sat in before the cockpit closed leaving them in darkness before lights and monitors came on the machine was being powered judging from the sounds before the boy began to fiddle with the controls.

She noticed a small interface pop up with an acronym of G.U.N.D.A.M. She didn't understand what it meant but wasn't able to think clearly about it as she looked to the boy who was shaking his head.

"The OS is clunky, but we can't worry about that right now!" The boy shouted as he began to mess with the controls in her eyes before feeling the machine shake as it began to slowly get up.

Yui stared at the boy blinking knowing what the term meant: operating system. It surprised her and was it was something she finally understood but this whole set up was still getting to her. Shortly as she thought about this another few explosions were heard before the machine began to move forward feeling force hitting her a bit as the machine began to fly somehow out of the hanger just as the building itself began to explode.

She stared at the monitor giving her a view of the city outside before sighing softly glad to see they were safe holding her arm gritting her teeth realizing her arm was hurt too and she never realized it. She was confused as to why she was so badly injured bit figured it was a side effect of what she deals with moments before with the nuke in Sherwood that seemingly brought her to... Maybe the future? It was her best guess as she sat back trying to relax her bones, so she doesn't hurt herself anymore.

"Are you okay?" The boy asked making Yui surprised for a moment before calming herself.

"In shock and pain… But I am fine now so long as we are away from the explosions. I'm… Sorry though." Yui said softly as she watched the monitors.

The boy looked her way surprised himself it seems. "For what?"

"Your… Friend or comrade I suppose?" She responded back softly.

The boy was silent before focusing forward. "Its fine, I'm surprised you are giving sympathy after what we have done…"

"Which I don't know what that is… I just know there was fire and destruction when I woke up…" Yui stated softly as the boy focused forward as they landed another humanoid machine moving in front of them as another machine came out of the burning hanger.

"…My name is Athrun do you remember your name?" Athrun asked.

Yui stared at the boy who was focused on something else it seemed before focusing forward again. "Yuianna, you can just call me Yui."

Athrun looked at her then forward again. "We will get you help soon just hold on I am new to this machine, so this might be bumpy."

Yui still questioned the comment about operating systems from earlier but trusted the boy, she had to at this point. She didn't know anything else right now besides that there are giant machines with guns and people who pilot them. Oh, right… And a name.

"Athrun!" Yui jumped hearing another voice but realized it came from a communicator.

"Rusty failed!" Athrun responded activating his communicator to send back to who Yui assumed was a comrade.

"What?!" The voice responded back before Athrun continued.

"An officer from the Earth Forces is in the other machine!" Athrun explained just as the machine in front of them began to fire at the other gray machine that had the said officer inside of. The machine looked like it was wobbling but somehow the shots missed an obvious target surprising her.

"Earth forces?" Yui questioned before putting a hand over her mouth making Athrun look her way before beginning distracted by the voice.

"Who was that?!" The voice asked.

"A badly injured civilian Miguel, I was forced to take her in!" Athrun responded to the voice that now had a name.

"The commander might get angry with you…" Miguel stated before his machine began to put away his weapon then pulled out a giant sword. "Fine, I'll capture the machine for you, go ahead and get the civilian and the machine out of here. "Miguel's machine then ran forward toward the other machine.

Athrun seemed like he wanted to protest from Yui's eyes before holding back in thought before suddenly bringing down a keyboard from the side making her surprised but watched.

"You are... Fixing the OS here?" Yui unable to help herself and asked but softly.

"I have too, its too messy right now to safely get it out of here." Athrun said opening folders and typing in what seemed to be code of some kind.

She just silently observed to be respectful and lets Athrun do his job before looking forward seeing the giant sword Miguel's machine was wielding expecting it to cut through the machine easily before suddenly the machine changed colors to a blue, white, and red look. It surprised everyone and even herself when sparks flew everywhere but no damage was done when Miguel backed off.

"Man, what kind of armor is that?!" Miguel shouted in surprise.

Yui looked at Athrun's cockpit seeing a button saying Phase-Shift Armor as Athrun explained. "The machines are equipped with Phase-Shift Armor." Wow she guessed right, not like the button was big and colorful. "With it active your saber is useless against it."

Athrun pressed the said button activating the machine's Phase-Shift armor, as this happened she processed the info she was hearing. "Multiple machines… OS… Armor that stops most Kinetic weapons…" She said softly to herself getting Athrun's attention.

"You understand this?" Athrun asked then there was silence.

"Only bits and pieces, but your right the OS looks clunky as heck." Yui stated making Athrun look at her before going back to typing away.

"How do you know?" Athrun asked.

"Because it seems to be a copy and paste… There's original coding from what I've seen from your fast speed typing but… Most of it seems copy and paste like there is no thought or fingerprint left on it at all." She stated while simply watching the monitors holding her head.

Athrun eyed Yui as he typed before looking up then firing cannons from the head of the newly red colored machine Athrun was moving. It shot down a couple of missiles and a set of vehicles.

"You need to go now, you don't need to stick around here anymore!" Miguel shouted over the communicator, as this happened Athrun looked over at the blue and white machine with a stare before suddenly the machine launches up in the air and then leaving the scene.

Yui just observed Athrun silently thinking to herself then down at the burning grounds below and where the blue and white machine once was. She felt like Athrun knew the boy she saw from earlier, it was a crazy thought, but it was possible. Weird chances like that happen.

"Tch…" Then she felt her head pound again and again making her hold her head as she watched the monitors concerning Athrun.

"We are almost to safety hold in there Yui." Athrun assured her, she knew holding on was what she had to do now as they were moving out of the city area and into an area like the workings of a giant factory surprising her but considering the 'sky' she saw earlier it made sense. It only took a few moments before she felt like she really was dreaming again.

Yui's eyes were wide seeing a void of darkness filled with small glowing lights that were plentiful in number around them making her look along the monitor with her eyes in shock and awe. "S-Space?" She questioned.

Athrun looked to Yui surprised but didn't question it he simply looked forward. "Yes, we are in space, the place you just came out of was a space colony called Heliopolis. I am taking you to my commander's ship, Versalius."

Yui blinked a bit. "Heliopolis and Versalius… Interesting names." She commented.

Athrun thought for a bit. "I suppose so." He stated as a bluish-green ship came into view that seemed like a trident that was in a triangle. It was hard for Yui to fully explain it, but it seemed like there was a giant door at the front that seemed to lead to a hanger of some kind. "Athrun Zala coming in, I have a civilian on board as well who was badly injured."

"Understood Arthurn a medical team is getting prepped now." A voice said over the communicator before the red machine enters the giant ship then docks itself in the hanger. After a bit the cockpit opens with her vision blurring a bit as she felt a hand on her shoulder.

"It will be easier to move in here come on." Athrun stated to her before she slowly pulled herself out of the cockpit slowly being helped of the said cockpit her blood… Coming out in small bubbles? She stared at the blood for a moment then remembered she was in space. She then looked over to the one that helped her seeing someone in a space suit with soldiers behind him which made sense to her.

"Come with me, you can't stay here like this. Let the commander know about our guest!" The supposed doctor stated getting a nod from the others. Yui was guided by her hand away from the hang but looked back one last time at the red but now gray machine before looking forward again.

Versalius – Med Bay – Unknown Date

Doctors are still… Doctors, which means pain is involved in their work but at the very least it seems medicine has improved for the most part. She always hated the doctors from the needles to straight up saying what you need to do or giving a diagnosis, she doesn't understand and get scared. This time she knew what hurt and what needed fixed specifically, but it seemed lie the med bay was more advanced than that.

Bone bruising to light sprains to her arm and leg while the injury to her head was the most severe, she lost quite a bit of blood and it spent the doctor some effort to sew it up and mend the wound. "I'm surprised you were able to move or talk with this. Doesn't seem like something a civilian would withstand." The doctor stated to me.

"Adrenaline kicked in I guess… I'm more surprised than you really." She said calmly closing her eyes as the doctor worked on her gash. "Ow…"

"Just relax, the medicine I am applying will remove any scaring then degrade the string as it heals." The doctor said making her sigh a bit.

"I-I see… I'm glad it wasn't worse is all." She said softly waiting a few minutes before getting a nod from the doctor.

"There, all done, the gash will be gone within the hour, but you might want to lay down due to the loss of blood. You got no where else to go for now either since this is a warship so probably for the best." The doctor stated making her nod a bit.

"Warship… I see I'll do what you suggested then doc." Yui said softly as the doctor then leaves her on the bed for now making her breath in then out before slowly laying back.

Yui's mind raced and began to process all that she just endured and went through, giant machines, space, spaceships, space colony, lasers, giant guns, oh and blood. She slowly shook her head being careful not to do anything rash then sighed before looking over at her clothes that were by her side. She was forced into new clothing and left with her old dirty ones.

She thought for a moment before slowly reaching into her clothes looking for her phone then found it slowly pulling it out then looking at it, the phone was dirty as well with a couple of cracks but usable. She very slowly turned it on seeing most of the battery life was still there with a picture of her and Mia as the screensaver.

She was silent for a moment before putting in a rather long password to get past the lock seeing that there was no service, but she could still access her pictures looking through them to make sure she wasn't dreaming but it only made her thrown as she lowered the phone onto her lap staring at the ceiling.

"Where the hell am I?" She said to herself then blinked before looking down clicking on the app button then slides her list to the left going past games until she found a certain app with a reaper mask with thorns on it. A few seconds past before a voice was heard, it was a demonic sounding voice, but it was a voice.

"Ah Yuianna, it is about time you came back… Hm? There's no Wi-Fi or data here…" Yui sighed shaking her head.

"Quiet Cell I am not sure either, I just know we are not in Kansas anymore- "Yui was about to say then the AI yelled luckily, she turned down the volume fast enough.

"REALLY?! Your gonna give me THAT right now?!" Cell asked.

"Yes, I am gonna give you that right now… So how long have I been… Out?" Yui asked but got silence.

"Cell?" Silence. "Cell?"

"I don't know." A simply reply from Cell.

"Huh?! How can you not know?!" Yui asked.

"I just don't know! Without Wi-Fi or data, I can't process the calendar year here… But the technology and coding here is pretty good." Cell stated sniffing as if he was a dog.

"Please don't go snooping right now…" Yui stated.

"Fine, I'll be a good boy for now… So, what do we do now?" Cell asked.

Yui was silent unsure herself a bit. "Who knows… I don't know what kind of conflict is going on out there so… We should focus on here and ourselves right now." She said softly.

"Yes, you should indeed." A voice said to her making her jump and drop the phone before looking up staring now at a blonde man with a mask and a white military uniform she assumed.

"Oh… Uh…" She was confused and unsure what to say or do. The man slowly walked forward with a small smile a couple of soldiers behind him clearly for protection.

"It is rare we help civilians who are injured, especially Naturals. You are quite lucky… Yuianna was it?" The man asked.

Yuianna just stared at the masked man before nodding softly. "Athrun told you then?" She asked simply.

"Oh? Figured it out yourself… That is good saves me some time. I am Rau Le Creuset. Commander of this vessel and of Athrun Zala who is assigned to my team." The man named Rau greeted himself putting a hand out. She very slowly and reluctantly shook the hand back.

"So, might I ask who your friend is?" Rau asked referring to the phone making her gulp.

"Well… Cat is out of the bag Yuianna, guess you weren't fast enough." Cell stated from the phone.

"Quiet you silly AI, you were just confused as I was…" Yui stated softly with a sigh.

"An AI you say?" Rau inquired looking at the phone which Yui slowly picks up and flips it so the icon on the screen that was moving about faced Rau.

"Yeah, his codename is Cell, he is a AI that has its own mind and will. It was suddenly on my phone one day and I could never get rid of it." Yui explain getting a reaction from the AI.

"What?! You tried too?!" Cell stated.

Yui sighed once more sweating a bit. "S-Sorry about him… Anyways I am… honored for the commander of the ship to meet me in person. Sadly, I don't know what is going on in the slightest."

Rau just observed the girl for a few moments then nodded. "Are you a civilian of Heliopolis?" Rau asked simply making Yui shake her head no.

"No… I was… I assume was… A resident of Sherwood…" She said softly fiddling with her phone a bit.

"Sherwood?" Rau asked, he was curious but clueless at the same time.

"Sherwood… Yeah, Sherwood PA, it is right next Pittsburgh… "She thought for a minute then her eyes widen. "R-Right... T-The nuke or… Bomb…" She breathed in then out trying to calm herself rubbing her arm softly.

"It seems you went through something traumatic… But I never heard of Pittsburgh or Sherwood." Rau stated simply.

Yui just stared silently thinking. "Excuse but… Is it 2017 AD?" She asked out of the blue having a hunch.

Rau just stared no reaction being given due to the mask before giving an answer. "No, we are far beyond that year Yuianna."

"Just Yui is fine…" She said softly looking down thinking.

"Well this is quite the pickle huh Yuianna?" Cell asked the girl.

Yui sighed a bit. "Sure is, I still don't understand how a nuclear weapon created a green and black color…" She said softly.

"We were close too, that group I was checking in probably launched their D-Day weapon before I could stop them… I couldn't get any data on it, but I assume that is what caused us to move forward in time." Cell stated processing the data it has gathered. "We probably are listed dead on earth to begin with."

Yui stared at the phone then sighed. "So much for my programming."

"You are honestly more worried about your own programming career being ruined at a time like this?!... Wait did we win that bet?" Cell asked.

Yui's eye twitch. "Yes…"

Cell was silent then went crazy on the phone. "Goddammit! Oh well..."

Rau was simply observing for now before nodding. "Miss Yui may I make a proposal?" Rau asked.

Yui looked up blinking a bit. "A proposal?" She asked softly.

"You are a natural that much is true from what I can tell… But you do possess talents and a rather unique tool it seems that was able to peek into our data without much of a problem…" Rau stated.

Yui looked down. "Hey!"

Cell sweats. "I-I only peeked! I swear!"

Rau chuckled. "Peeked or not, we can't exactly let you leave from ZAFT's care due to you know military secrets. So, to make it easier on both of us… Miss Yui would you like to join ZAFT?" Rau asked.

Yui narrowed her eyes a bit. "Eh? You are really offering me that?" She asked softly confused.

"It is beneficial for all I would assume… It lets us provide you with shelter since you do not have a home apparently from what I have observed while also letting us keep a watchful eye over you." Rau explained.

Yui silently stared at Rau thinking. "But joining ZAFT means I have to fight right? I don't know much on this timeline so…"

Rau stared thinking a bit before explaining. "With your AI friend it should be easy to learn how to say move a mobile suit or learn how to do things here." Rau assured then just watched. "What will your decision be?"

Yui stared at Rau then slowly looked down in thought staring at Cell. "Alright… I don't mind doing such, but I will need something to help me transport Cell, my phone only has so much battery life."

"That can be arranged." Rau stated taking out a small thing, it was an ear piece and a key of some kind.

Yui takes it then noticed the shape of the key before slowly putting it into the phone. Suddenly Cell was gone then she puts on the ear piece, the giant cover of the key suddenly pops up and shows a screen and a yelling Cell. "WHOA, WHOA, WHOA, What the hell is this thing?!"

"It was something quick, but it should help with communication and gets rid of the battery life issue." Rau stated making Yui nod watching Cell controlling the monitor.

"Cool I can control it too, this sure is nice!" Cell said before turning to Yui. "So, we are accepting then?"

Yui stared at Cell before sighing. "Better than being lost here." She stated then looked up to Rau nodding. "We will join ZAFT!"

Rau smiled but Yui noticed both soldiers looking worried. "Good, are you feeling better?" Rau asked.

Yui blinked a bit. "Yes, I do… Why?" She asked as Rau turned walking to the door.

"You are already in uniform, so you might as well start already right? We have a debriefing in the next few minutes so unless you want to be lost you should follow me." Rau stated simply before leaving the room making Yui and Cell confused before they realized what Rau meant.

Yui got up slowly straightening herself out breathing in then out putting the key part of Cell's communicator into her coat pocket not realizing she was in a ZAFT uniform until Rau pointed it out. It explained all the red that is for sure. Regardless she clapped on her face to focus then moved out of the med bay to catch up to Rau.

"While we move you should have your AI explain the details you need. Specifically, information on GINN." Rau explained getting a nod from Yui as she was being fed the information.

"GINN… Those were the units I saw earlier when I woke up and was the type… Miguel was using right?" She questioned looking off to the side.

Cell could be heard lightly but for the most part only se can hear Cell right now. "I suppose so, weapon is standard, we do know due to the Phase-Shift System that the saber is useless against those new machines, the gun works it seems at least."

"Right Miguel's sword did nothing to its armor cause of that system I forgot…" She said simply thinking as Rau listened to Yui's part surprised by how much information was gather on short notice. "So, the gun is the most reliable weapon against them. If we were close, we can gather information on the other unit too… The operating system was basic at best, it's a copy paste up until they have their original parts to them."

Rau smiled at the information that was being gathered and glad to have, it would be useful in their next battle it would seem making her value rise a bit. Rau stopped as they soon reached the bridge then enter it slowly with Yui following behind.

On the bridge Athrun and a few other pilots including Miguel were gathered around a table with a map on it that was process current data on the battlefield they were at talking with the captain of the vessel she assumes due to the black colored outfit.

The moment the door opened and revealed Rau everyone was quick to salute Rau's entry as she entered slowly from behind Rau getting use to the zero-gravity thing as she slowly looked around. The high-tech bridge surprised her as she followed Rau toward the table being surprised by the bridge crew and especially Athrun of her appearance.

"C-Commander why is she here?" Athrun asked in surprise and mixed confusion.

Yui blinked as Rau explained. "As of today, she will be a member of the Rau Le Creuset squad until further notice. Understood?" He noted to everyone getting a nod while Athrun was confused but nodded.

Yui nodded back. "Thank you for having me." She simply stated her eye shifting to the left toward her earpiece then to Rau. "Should I…?"

Rau looked at Yui getting a set of mixed and confused looks before Rau nodded. "You might as well, there will be confusion if he talked out of nowhere." Rau stated.

Yui nodded slowly taking out Cell's communicator then it opened revealing his icon. "Hello! I am Cell, Yuianna's personal AI and assistant, we will be working with you so hope you don't mind us."

The others were a bit surprised to see a fully voiced and self-talking AI, Yui slowly pocketed the communicator then eyed the table with a blink. "I see so it acts as a real-time battle map." She said softly to herself

Rau nodded then focused back on the team. "Now then with introductions out of the way, I am reviewed the data and footage. I want to thank you Miguel for getting footage of your battle, I would be a laughingstock if I had lost to a Natural." Rau praised Miguel for his work before a video of the blue and white machine popped up on the screen behind Rau and Yui making her turn.

After awhile they returned to the table. "As you are all aware the original OS is beyond good enough to allow the machines to fight to begin with." Rau explained making Yui flashback to the events.

"I don't know how the machine suddenly was able to move so suddenly; however, we need to capture that machine or if that fails destroy it before the Earth Forces get it back." Rau explained before continuing. "Not to mention the ship that is carrying it needs to be sunk as well regardless if capture was successful or not. Don't underestimate anything."

"Olor! Miguel! Prepare for takeoff! D-Equipment usage has been granted! End it this time!" The captain of the ship explained to the pilots before they left leaving Yui with Athrun, Rau and the captain.

"Captain Ades! Let me sortie as well!" Athrun requested.

"You have no machine Athrun. Your mission has been completed of capturing one of the machines." Rau pointed out.

Athrun began to protest but Captain Ades cuts in. "Let the others go, Zala. They need to redeem themselves from their humiliation in battle."

Athrun seemed to not want to take this order at all and go back out there. Yui's eyes could tell that it was related to the blue and white machine most likely with the other boy. But she didn't have time to focus on this as her shoulder was tapped making her perk up and look to who was tapping her shoulder seeing it was Captain Ades.

"As for you Yuianna, you are to sortie with them as well." Captain Ades noted making her surprised along with Athrun.

"A-Already? But I haven't…" Yui began to say.

"Have confidence, you won't get much of a chance most likely to practice after this. Go and do your first duty as a member of ZAFT Yuianna!" Captain Ades stated. "Lt. Rau had a reason to add you to his team so now is the time to see what you can do."

Yui just stared at Captain Ades silently thinking before saluting. "Yes Captain." She stated simply before turning then leaving.

"Before you go…" Rau stated to Yuianna making her stop then turning. "What is your last name?"

Yuianna stared at Rau then turned back around. "Yuianna Shiromi." She stated simply before leaving the bridge.

"Lt. Rau I still don't understand why…" Athrun questioned.

"Why her? You will find out… She is a natural, but she is smarter than most." Rau stated before going to sit down leaving Athrun to think to himself before leaving the bridge himself.
