_ *Part Three: Bloodshed * _

_A_ll I could see was darkness, I wasn't able to feel anything around me. Is this how feeling weak is like wasn't it, and where I rested had no sounds around me.

Shutting my eyes again and repeatedly to open my eyes until the flickering light can be seen, I tried to move from the darkness and pushed myself to reach the light. I woke up on the couch on the table in front of her, of that towering 30 meter tall kitsune gal. She looked down at me like before, she seemed a bit worried of me with her index finger gently rubbing my cheeks.

''Seems like you passed out, it's been a couple of minutes. Now then, are you ready to talk little one?''

She spoke out towards me, slowly tracing her finger away from my face, and brought it around in the grip of her tea. I stared into her eyes, feeling the relaxation in my chest and legs, I wasn't feeling much fear from this macro. She was different..

''So um.. Was that you? Are.... you.. .. The soldier I fought earlier in battle?''

I asked nervously, I could see her lips forming a smile towards me. She leaned back as she began to sip on her fancy cup of tea, slowly the female rabbit soldier walked back carrying a tray of some goodies, from small chocolate rolls to some tea, and all was prepared delicately for me. The Silver Feline bent down and gently sniffed the back of my head, trying to make me blush a little. It did tickle but was quite distracting.

She slowly left us in peace from the room, I'd reach for a cup filled with tea, sipping it slowly looking at the female macro.

''Yes you were fighting me in battle, but don't forget now. Us macros are much overpowering then you little bugs called micros. However, I respect you Sir Astro. But i can't have you go back piloting that machine, it controls you and forces you to kill our own, your own. What do you think your mother will do after hearing that you killed some of your own kind?''

Okuri said her words slowly, placed her tea on the table and leaned her face to where I sat on the miniature couch. I couldn't move a single muscle, my body was shivering in some fear, and now I got myself in this deep mess. I'll have to choose, which side I belong too and which one to fight against.

''Perhaps I should return to piloting it, what's with you macros. Throwing me away like trash and now you want to bring me back.. She threw me away and she's gotta accept that now, that I am gonna kill you monsters!' I spat out the words towards her, my eyes glowed a bit showing a spark of light besides my iris.

Okuri, that kitsune looked down at me, trying to keep her cool. ''She never intended to throw you away, it wasn't even that. You and your guardian left the kingdom, knowing it'd be best for you to join the others, the ones who are identical with you. Stop pretending that you're one of those bugs called humans, your blood. Yeah your royal blood, it consists of macro DNA and human DNA. You're just like your dead father, once a gundam pilot, a king and now ended up dying in his bed. Do you want to end up like him?'' She spouted out with anger towards me as I sat in my seat, not able to move a single muscle.

''How do you know, huh? You weren't even there when it fucking happened!'' I shouted out as I stood up in argument against her, she pressed her finger against my chest back into the couch.

I'd watch her growl, biting her lips and slowly loosening the grip on her tea cup. I made her angry, real angry. ''Get him out of my sight, take him with you, and let him learn a bit. It's like speaking to an kindergartner.'' Okuri spoke out as she raised her hand, the feline beside the doors slowly walked up to the table, scooping me up into those rabbit hands.

Okuri smiled out as I turned around looking up at the feline as she slowly brought me close to her chest, while I was pressed to her exposed belly with her jacket open. It was soft but it was also quite comfortable in my position.

''Wait one more thing!'' I shouted out towards the kitsune as she slowly sat down in her seat.

''Who are you, Are you Okuri Zyrnah or not!'' I asked out loud, looking at her as she gave me a small frown and her eyes glared at mine.

She slowly halted the feline to continue on her departure from this room. ''As I am now, I consider myself no more nothing than a vessel for those who were lost with no hope left to continue with life, and tor the ideals of the macro kingdom that will light all our roads to a new world with humans under our feet. So if that's what the people desire, then that is who I'll be. Okuri.'' She spoke out with a smile and soon the feline escorted me out of the room.

Meanwhile on the Gefenite Outset Space Carrier -

Captain Negevi and her large units of men and women gather inside the room, an Vixen slowly walking into the room dressed with a navy blue combative suit, long purple hair and glowing midnight blue eyes. From mobile suit pilots, to Sizeshiting fighters all sitting behind tables, taking notes of the board.

''Earth, an old planet that was civilized with humans, non humans, and macros. This is the Floraian Kingdom, up in the northern parts of what used to be left of Canada on the east coast. It was turned into a large kingdom to live with macros and micros alike, there's a neutral state to a cost. Micros are usually treated there as servants and weapons of war, we believe this is the same location where the NVX-067 Kitsune G was taken.'' The vixen smiled out pointing her stick to the hologram board, many soldiers were left annoyed and tired.

''You are telling us who should go towards this palace with the Gefenite fight and break in all alone, Impossible!'' One pilot shouted against her, standing up from his chair and slamming his fist to the table.

The Vixen looked at the pilot slightly annoyed. ''Hey Negevi, I really want to eat that guy to make him shut up, could i do it later?'' The Vixen questioned back towards her captain, with Negevi nodding with a slight giggle. ''Sure you could, but i want him alive in one piece still alive~'' Negevi smiled out as she slowly returned back into her seat.

''This operation is under my team, we've already started to prepare and arrived at this ship. In the USVF's Macro Defense Unit, our unit consisted of both Sizeshifters and mobile suit pilots to take part in this operation. We will head out in approximately 12 hours.'' The vixen shouted out towards their soldiers, finishing the meeting from there. They began to get up from their seats and make way to prepare.

''I'll be back soon, okay Ahra?'' Negevi pats on the vixen's shoulder, slowly walking out of the room, and she makes way towards the elevator.

As the door shuts, Negevi shouted out towards herself, kicking her boots against the walls. ''Damn it! You call that an operation! Using volunteered macros and mobile suits to do the job! Don't make me fucking laugh my ass off-'' She was cut off as the doors opened up and Negevi jumped out with the gravity making her float, slamming her body accidentally against one of her crew members against her belly. She began to blush out and pulled herself off, looking at her staff.

Despite their height, she slowly cooled down, signaling they could proceed to talk, and now the Vixen commander slowly arrived behind them with the bridge staff.

''We've been made aware the orders from headquarters, how do you attend on proceeding.'' A female dirty blonde human tall as Negevi's waist slowly asked out in her white, pink and blue outfit towards her captain.

Negevi was unsure. ''Do you even have to ask me this? The Gundam is supposed to be a shield for the entire micro race and we have no choice but to go, especially when considering that the pilot is the lost prince of the macro kingdom.''

The commander looked at her with a small smile, leaning her hand against the wall. ''I have no objection, I agree with our orders. However, if it's all the same for you, we are choosing to look at this as a hostage rescue mission. We owe the prince that much the very least, I know how we can do it. I believe this ship is equipped with an high mega particle cannon, correct?''

-Returning To Astro-

I was sitting at a small table with a few other humans, a few anthro soldiers with the feline sitting next to me. We were eating our dinner at a large home within the Florian kingdom of the old Canadian east coast, mostly macros weren't seen here they were mostly inside the palace or around the gates. I slowly slurped down some of the soup, dipping some of my crispy hot loaf of bread into the soup, and I was sort of enjoying my meal. ''Hey, So are you from the federation?'' The young German shepherd canine said with a small giggle, just a short fluff child trying to get some answers from me just great.

''Let that pilot eat in peace, Aviv.'' The gray wolf spoke out with a tired sigh as he returned biting in his steak. I was left with the question I'd never thought to answer. ''I'm only here because these people force me to come.'' I said slowly and quietly towards the kid, watching the canine mother trying to stop her adopted human children from running around. It kinda made me smile a bit, and once again another question came out from the child's lips. ''So are you a prisoner or something?''

I was left in some annoyance. ''Maybe I am or maybe I'm not.'' I sighed out tiredly as I looked down at my bowl of soup, dipping some bread into it again, and tried to enjoy my meal but I felt absolutely frustrated. ''So what are you then! If you're no prisoner, tell us what you are-'' The kid was cut off by his father, stuffing his son with an chunk of bread.

''Excuse my son, he's got a big mouth of talking, the only way to shut him up is feeding him some good food. But i do got the same question, what are you then?'' The father smiled out as his son chewed on his bread and returned to his meal. Finally his father got him to stop yammering out some dumb questions, but still do i really need to say it.

''I am a pilot but I'm also an orphan of war. The Queen decides to throw their child away into a space colony, years past and my colony is wiped out by them all. I did what I could, they were gonna kill me, and I had no choice but to kill them too. That's war, it continues on and on for fucking what? To wipe out the race of all micros and to punish them on what they never intended to do! Macros and micros were in peace, things got outta hand due to a stupid organization by dropping a giant colony of both macro and micros into the burning hot ball called the sun!'' I shouted out towards him, with tears pouring down my eyes, standing my ground, and slowly got away from the table.

The father looked at me with him shaking up for abit.

I marched my way out of the dining room, with that tall wolf following me back outside into the alleyways. ''Hey you should calm down and return eating to your food.'' The fatherly wolf said as he tries to pat my back, but I turned around, slapping his hand away from me.

''Don't touch me! Just leave me alone..''

I looked at him, as he slowly stands still, and I lean against the wall by the door I've just walked out of. I was upset, sad, and slightly tired.

''I've lost my father, who loved me and cared for me. But I've lost so much, yet I've cried more than ever. He might not be blood related but he was indeed an amazing father, and I lost him that day before my home perished into the ashes of war and massacre across the space colony. I feel like I wasn't ever really part of my family of royals. I can't be like them and now I don't want to ever turn into them. I know that I am the heir to the throne but even so I feel that I'm not. I wasn't loved or cared for by my mother. She wasn't ever there for me. My guardian took care of me and raised me until she'd bring me to the colonies, yet i still feel very alone and sad with myself.'' I said quietly, trying to put my head together, and I slowly watched him as she slowly leaned against the wall as well next to me.

I saw him slowly lean in, frowning down towards me. ''It's okay, little one. I'm sorry for what you're going through, the things that have been troubling you so much. I apologize for asking. Do you need a few minutes outside?'' He asked politely as I began to feel some tears pouring down my cheeks.

''Maybe someone I can talk to, just for a bit.'' I spoke out as I drew my face down to the ground, looking at the rocky roads with some roses and flowers trying to bloom out through the old walls.

I felt a soft fluffy tail slowly brushing the back of my neck and watching it for a second as it wipes my tears from my freckled cheeks.

''We too are prisoners of war, held here at the Canadian east coast. My children don't know it but that's the truth, my wife and I are just earth debris. Hey but that's okay, Micros are micros. To the macro kingdom, we were the devils incarnate. The people who dropped the colony, all the big wigs of both sides were trying to negotiate a peace, and frustration was building up in the macro troops who occupied our planet's vast lands and countries. They were your typical thugs, they were brought up with the idea to enslave the micro devils, and things like if you're looking for a good time. Go find a micro, roleplay with them to the point they were to rot and weaken out. Some made it out alive and mostly got eaten up like the rest. A night came along as the macros rampaged our cities, the elderly begging for their lives, children clinging to their mother's arms, and those monsters killed every single last one of them.'' He slowly spoke out as some tears poured out from his eyes too, I could feel the pain from his mind and heart. He was sad and still mourning for someone very close to him.

He looked back towards me with a sad sigh. ''The official reports say that the macros were trying to close down human rights riots and it was obvious that what they were really doing was just trying to blow off some steam. The name of the city was called Charlottetown, my mother and my older sister lived there. Including that feline's family, she had her mother and father there, and her younger brother who just turned Six years old.'' He said as the wolf slowly made its way through the door, and I started to walk back inside with him.

I turned around before entering inside, I looked around as a drunk man slowly walked beside me, placing a small folded piece of paper and pen into my pocket. ''Sorry man..'' He grunted out as he ran away through the small alleyways.

I rush towards the small alleyway, only to see complete darkness.

''Something happened?'' The wolf said as he leaned against the door post.

I walked back inside the doorway, slowly heading upstairs, and made way into my bedroom. I sat onto the bed, shutting the door behind me and unfolded the paper to see it's an holographic map of this fortress. ''Head to the west gate at 5am, if you don't we cannot guarantee the safety of your life.. My life? So the battle is coming here, huh.'' I whispered to myself as I folded up the map, and looked at the pen as it dimly flashed.

Two hours had passed, I slowly climbed out of my window sill, and jumped out onto the ground into a small frontflip roll. I began running through the streets, following the map to the exact coordinates, and I slowly started to hear the sirens.

But before I knew it, the palace was being fired at with plasma bolts, destroying through its force fields. Flames were scorching across the kingdom, with micros running for their lives. Macro soldiers and mobile suits began to drop into the area

I look around and look back towards the houses I came from. I felt a grip around my body, pulling me backwards and gently wrapping me up in the armored hand. I listened to hear gunshots, blasting through the buildings and homes of many, I couldn't tell what was happening.

''Protect the pilot at all costs, we cannot allow those filthy bastards to get their hands on him. We gotta bring him to his mobile suit at all costs!'' The voice shouted out, as they carried me through these fires. I had trouble understanding what was happening around me, it was truly frightening. My ears rang, my body was slowly being tightened around luckily nothing was hurting as I was held in such a safe grip.

There were guns blasting out bullets, I listened to the bullets slamming into the bodies of the unknown, and slowly there was no more shooting. The grip around me began to loosen up, revealing the light besides my mobile suit, the soldiers around me were macros. They were all dressed in USVF uniforms, some were guarding the warehouse from within and outside of the area.

''This might look confusing and all, Astro but be assured. We are fighting for the equalization of both races, we might appear as the ones who tower over many but fear not we put our lives in protecting the Micros and all who stand up for against the Macro kingdom, so go get in the Gundam and Fight!'' The helmet revealed itself to show a fox, with some of her purple hair showing a little, and smiling up towards me as she slowly placed me beside the mobile suit's hatch.

My mind was flowing with new information, there were a few macros dressed in USVF battle suits, they appeared with rifles just like my mobile suit would've used. There was no more time to think, the others would be coming, I began to climb into my seat, and shut the hatch.

As the hatch shuts, the interface begins to turn on, I begin to slide my helmet back on and prepare for combat in the mobile suit. I gripped around the joysticks and controls, setting everything on for battle and launch. The cameras within the head of the gundam began to turn on too, giving me a full perspective from the eyes of the mobile suit, there were macros and micros in their mobile suits holding out their weapons. The gundam slowly stood up and climbed out of its baying cage, stepping onto the catapult launch pad, and I was getting ready for launch.

''Kitsune, Let's get outta here.''

I spoke out slowly as the mobile suit activates at 100%, the Solus framing began to reveal itself throughout the entire gundam body like blood veins, glowing in a royal pink color all around the body, and it began to glitter up. I push forwards with the controls, shooting out from the catapult into the bright light slowly fading. I was on earth?! It'd make all sense now, the lands were all green and buildings of many scattered around the area, it was like a kingdom. The Skies were blue, the clouds were white and fluffy, and the sun drew light across the terrain. I wondered what part of the world we were located in.

So this is Earth, the people of the colonies said it was nearly flattened down by the macros but it looks all so beautiful except knowing that this is all now macro territory. Perhaps this is part of the northern continent of the Americas, it seemed like it due beyond this city was many to be fallen in sand and rubble. The war took place on this continent, after the colony dropped on the sun, The Macros swore to massacre the micros who lived here, turning their homes and cities into a complete wasteland, many took refuge under the surface. Turning all the underground, an entire set of small colonies scattered deeply in the earth's soil. Down there, no one ever saw the day of light again after the massacre in V.C. July 4th - 26th 1036.

Besides the mobile suit i piloted up into the skies, I can see blazing flames throughout the city with other mobile suits and USVF Macro soldiers battling against the Royal Trinity Titan Forces, bombings throughout the entire city could be seen before my very eyes, the alert system vibrated throughout the cockpit, and the beating of red lights in the radar flashes out. An enemy was coming my way, The Kitsune Gundam drew out its beam saber with its hilt guard opening up like a blooming flower, beaming out a strong powerful glowing pink blade.

''Why you little brat, you gonna regret escaping my master's grasp!'' The silver feline's voice spoke out as it was seen she was dressed in an armored orange and black macro suit with gripping a sledgehammer, that glew rapidly in the colors of burning orange.

I'd listen to the voice a few ten meters away, quickly reacting as my mobile suit clashes its saber at the staff of the sledge hammer. I can feel the heavy weight holding me down and causing us to crashing down to the ground.

We would fall down into the streets of the abandoned city nearby an micro's refuge camp with soldiers and civilians running away in terror, I couldn't hold my saber against her hammer, she would jump backwards with her helmet off holding her sledge hammer to the ground crushing some humans under her boots and hammer, with blood splattering all around the ground. It was painful to watch, a scene of massacre before my very eyes.

''Oh it's just so fun to watch these bugs pop like grapes, they're just so exciting to crush and play with. Blood, let it all spill from their bodies or whatever would be left of them!'' She roared out with a vicious looking smile, I felt really weak. I couldn't move this mobile suit, the saber's blade slowly faded and slid back into the arm's case.

A gray mobile suit rushed into the streets, trying to fight off the damn cat. I listened to the screams of the soldier calling out before he was ripped out from his mobile suit, we were no more but food stored in machines. I'd watch the blood pour from her teeth, the head dropping to the ground and soon coming to be crushed by the feline's boot.

''Aww he was quite the squirmy one, i wonder how you'll taste~''

Tears poured down my eyes, the wires plugging into my space combat suit, with the anger slowly flaming up in my body, blood rushing through my veins and the will to fight slowly rose up. The Kitsune's left arm slowly generated a Nano shield in the colors of all red and silver, with now the right arm sliding out its beam saber, and preparing for close combat.

''She's toying with me, I will not allow you to go easy on me. Now stop playing around with your food, calling me names, and come Fight Me'' I screamed out as my fingers became tingly, vibrating rapidly with a fast recoil, and quickly grabbed my controls.

I moved forwards as the mobile suit's veins glowed brighter to a golden yellow color, watching the rabbit raise up her sledge hammer and slam it onto a group of civilians crushing them all under her bloody hammer, the blood poured from the sledgehammer, and slowly brought it to her lips.

I'd watch her lick the blood and slurp the remains off her sledgehammer, they were all covered on that sledge. ''Mmm delicious, now then little toy let's battle as you asked!'' She laughed out stomping through the streets crushing all who were beneath her boots, turning them to rivers of blood. Nothing left of those innocent civilians, that monstrous feline. A cold blooded murder with the taste of energetic and lust for murder, i couldn't allow it to go away from my eyes.

''I.. I... I'll Kill you, and put all of your damn kind to the ashes and make sure I'll be the one to kill every last one of you monsters!'' I roared in fierce anger, with the mobile suit reacting to the emotion of my anger, the controls were sliding away and preparing the MTD on.

My body shook with excitement, my arms and legs began to shift as I sat inside my chair, and kept my eyes directly throughout the interface.

Thus this machine began to vibrate, it's gears and body shifting with its tail spreading out like a blooming flower, it's funnel tail blades began to brighten up with the colors similar towards the blood veins that spreads around under the gundam frame, it glittered up in its awesome golden colors.

I dove right back into combat, holding the saber in one hand and the other with the shield, I visioned each of her upcoming attacks and used that against her, with her going to the left, I'd make my way to the right, swinging my sword into her shield slicing it off cleanly and that her left ear sliced off as well, with the blood gushing out from where her ear used to be. I watched her scream in absolute pain, she stared into the eyes of this mobile suit that I kept piloting from within and slowly watched. The feline laughed off the pain coming from her head as she tried to ignore the fact she just lost one ear. She was preparing herself for an murderous form that she kept hidden, she would jump back away from where the gundam stood.

The feline crashed her bare feet into a refugee camp filled with micros. Alex, she'd begin to rip up some micro bodies apart, stomping on them carelessly with her soles covered in the blood of many, the feline would pounce throughout the camps, diving her mouth wide open as the innocent feared death coming towards them and rushing their heads inside her mouth with her sharp teeth.

Blood and more of it splashed around the camp grounds, the more we would fight, the more she'd go on her rampage. I raised my rifle, pointing it towards her, I couldn't stand watching those people dying before my eyes, and firing out a couple of shots towards her.

Alex, she began to throw some objects towards the mobile suit's head, at first what i thought was rocks but instead they were balls of fleshy dead bodies, she'd continue to throw more of them towards me, and each shot I took disintegrated the balls of the dead..

''Oh this is fun~'' She spoke out in laughter as she tossed more bodies towards my suit, dodging every throw she made. It was disgusting, using the dead as her own weapons, the burning orange glowed brighter through the Kitsune's veins, and placed the gundam at overdrive speed. Within the moment, the gundam bolted towards her, slashing her right ear off with more blood gushing out of her body. It was painless for her, she chuckled out more.

She still didn't give up, she was breathing deeply, and gripping her sledgehammer in joy. She swung her hammer from the bottom to the top, crashing it onto my shield creating some dents. I felt as the mobile suit I piloted in began to struggle, trying to hold the weight from pushing me down to the ground, and slowly tried to resist as I tried to stand up.

''Why is it, why do you still keep resisting that pain? It's useless now, what's causing you to continue on fighting, and what's driving you to keep going!'' She shouted out towards me, clashing my beam sword with her sledgehammer. Her teeth soaked with blood, drooling from her jaws, and a large smile slowly begins to cover her face.

She stared into the eyes of the Kitsune Gundam, watching her lips move. ''Cause, what's that? Pain, maybe. I never had any real goal until she arrived, Negevi.. Negevi gave me a goal to keep on going, to give all my soul towards the future of the colonies and fight for the peace that once was. '' I smiled out as she began to cough out some blood, I'd watch her sprint at me, with that heavy weapon hanging up in the air, and She'd slam that sledgehammer against my shield. It was such a strong hit against the shield creating quite a vibrating sound with electricity throughout the perimeter, a powerful shockwave causing all the buildings to shake, the earth's surface to move, and things began to crumble around in their place.

''I'd never thought I'd die in the hands of the royal prince with his father's piece of art. That Gundam...'' She chuckled up as blood poured from her lips and forehead, she tried to keep going and continue into combat.

Some USVF macro armored soldiers and Mobile suits continued fighting against the trinity titans, battling off in the city, and when they heard the shockwave. It all stopped, many gathered around watching as the fight went on. Blood and the ashes...

The Gundam jumped back with only just the single thoughts from my head, I never felt this emotion, it was the feeling of pain. Deep down I wanted to run away but the part of me holding me from leaving this fight, it's now or never. I gripped around the edges of my seat, feeling the immense pain erupting in my body, and slowly watched as my hands began to turn a bit fuzzy. Red fur slowly appeared on my hands, my fingertips turning into claws, and my hand became like handpaws. I'd see the reflection of my face, revealing it was being shifted into the head of a fox with my eyes glowing in the bright colors of golden yellow.

''I ain't going to back down now it's now or never!'' I screamed out in anger, clashing my sword against the shaft of her sledge hammer, creating much more powerful clang noises throughout the battlefield, the feline could be seen not giving up at all. I kept on going, my eyes directly at hers, my blood vibrating and my fur electrifying in such a powerful feeling. I watched her struggle underneath my sword, she wasn't backing down anytime soon. The immense power between us two was unmatchable, clashing again and again with our weapons creating such amazing colorful sparks in combat.

Nobody thought this battle would go on so long like this, macros and micros awed in amazement as the battle between mobile suit and macro, many stopped fighting but it gave the chance for the prisoners to escape onto the USVF ships, none would care but continue to keep their eyes of this battle.

''I can't keep up with your swings and movements, you're just too fast!'' Alex shouted out as I watched her engage in combat even more, by time she raised her sledge hammer again to block his saber's slash, the staff would slice cleanly and the blade of my saber would cut through her left arm, with blood splattering around the soil and flowers. She cried in such pain indescribable, that left arm laid on the ground with her hand still gripping the staff.

''My arm.. You took away my arm!'' She screamed out as she gripped whatever was left of her sledgehammer, I could see her anger raging in her eyes as she slowly dragged her legs towards the mobile suit, with much blood poured out of her left shoulder's socket, and she dropped her shaft to the ground.

''I'm sorry it has to be this way, but for the innocent you've killed and the things you've ever done under that horrible kingdom. You'll meet death in your eyes at this moment...'' I spoke out sprinting in as I pierced the beam saber through the feline's armored chest, burning her insides for a few seconds before the beam saber closed its hilt, and retracing the blade. She stood there, smiling out towards the skies raising her hand up before she fell forwards into my mobile suit's arms. She smiled towards me, her face all beaten up, and some tears poured down her cheeks. ''Hey.. Prince, can we fight like this again...'' She tried to stay up but soon she shut her eyes, dying in the hands of the gundam. That rabbit I fought, now dead.

I traveled up leaving her body to the soil of the earth, shooting into the skies with many of the other mobile suits and macro soldiers who soared on my side. There were many still fighting in the city, overran with macros ripping apart camps of the innocent who didn't make the escape, mobile suits clashing against the enemy with their weapons in hand. It was a terrifying scene throughout what would be left in that battlefield.

This is how war is like, it's hell between many. It never ends, the bloodshed would continue as many try to fight for victory but it just keeps on going never stopping.

I felt warmth, some of it wrapped around my hand. It was the sliver feline, smiling down as I continued to soar up to the skies from within the cockpit, the warmth began to fade. The sliver glitterung ghost of a feline chuckled up with a small smile, kissing my cheek and slowly the ghost faded away. I ignored her, I was angry and sad that I had to watch them die before my eyes. Why did it come to this? It's such a sad cruel galaxy out here.

We continued to fly up, slowly entering into a space carrier and soon after that we were settling down, I could feel pain in my head, and it was like feeling a migraine. A voice slowly spoke in my head, the female voice of the kitsune. I heard her tone was cold and calm, it called out in my head. ''I swear to you, I Okuri will make you pay.''

After that, I was in pain. I felt the immense pain across my body. The cockpit's doors slowly began to open, I tried to unbuckle myself from the seat. I just couldn't move. My vision began to fade away and soon I lost my unconscious passing out inside my seat again.

---

Three days has passed.

I again laid in bed, my body ached in immense pain. I grip around the rails of my bed beside the window, I slowly climbed out of bed walking towards the sink to wash up my face, turning on the faucet, and the cold water dripped and then poured out from the tube. I splashed some water onto my eyes, woke up my eyes and kept my sight in the mirror. I thought I was dreaming at first, I could see a reflection of myself as a fox with a coat of bright red fur covering my body, my hands were all red and beige with checkered paddings and my tail all bushy. Wait, I don't remember having a tail.. Wait, I have a tail! I was panicking for a bit until my fur slowly faded away and that tail returned to my form as a human.

''What did just happen right now..'' I spoke out slowly as I sat back into bed, sliding my pants on and boots on. I flicked the lights on for the lamp, trying to understand what has just happened now. I was totally confused.

The doors slowly opened as Negevi and another vixen walked into the room, sitting by the couch placing the food on the table for both themselves and for me. I slowly walked towards the table, seeing them both. ''Good Morning Astro Rose, How was your slumber?'' The vixen beamed out a smile with her purple hair all combed up into a ponytail and Negevi just sat there sipping on her cup of tea.

''It was well, I just don't understand why from all things that I looked like a fox a moment ago and now I'm human once again.'' I spoke tiredly, slowly sitting in my chair in front of them at the dining table, and saw there was a meal prepared for me. I haven't eaten in days, constantly been battling against others, non stop chatting with others and I've been getting all dizzy. I grip around the fork in my right hand like it was a pen and holding the knife in my right hand, I slowly sliced my omelet that oozed out with egg yoke, gooey yellow cheese and it was combined with vegetables like red peppers and broccoli. A loaf of white bread, it was hot and fluffy as I ripped into the bread, spreading some butter to the slice of bread I pulled off.

''It means you're getting into the staging of shapeshifting, it's the ability that you've been struggling for these past years to achieve, it's likely first happened in your fight while you didn't realize it or it could be that your shifting relies on your emotions.'' Negevi spoke out with a large smile across her face, clapping her hands together in some happiness.

I looked at her, Negevi. Was she telling the truth? Was it really true that she spoke of me shifting due to my emotions, I felt a bit off and slowly stood up. ''Is this ability, the thing that's inside me Dangerous towards others?'' I asked her with an uneasy look across my face, my hands shook with some fear.

''Well not entirely, there's a few steps to your ability as a size shape shifter. The first time you'll shift completely as your fox form, after that you should start experiencing some odd transformations like receiving a tail or a pair of ears in human form, later you'd transform again as your fox form and then you'd start learning your size changing. But these could lead to side effects like uncontrollability and rogue scenarios which you have to be careful of.'' The vixen stood up as Negevi returned to sip on her tea.

I stared into those eyes and slowly sat back down trying to calm myself down, munching onto the butter coated bread, and I tried to eat away my fear. I really was hungry, I haven't eaten anything since I got captured by that kitsune and now escaped from her grasp. I feel like I can rest for a bit. ''That's so, well then I'll try to control my ability some more-'' I yawned out, grabbing the glass of water, and slowly drinking it down slowly.

''I should introduce myself, I am Ahra. Commander of the Earth Combatant Unit that serves under USVF and your truly Negevi Rose. Me and my unit helped you on your escape from the hands of the royal trinity's elite commander Okuri. I'm still waiting for that magic word of yours, Pilot of the gundam~'' She smirked as I watched the vixen bring her muzzle close to my face. I backed away looking at her, gulping down the piece of bread that was left in my mouth. ''Thank you, Commander Ahra.''

Ahra smiled, pulling herself back against the couch. ''That's more like it, now then our captain Negevi needs to start explaining you some things before we both go back to the bridge.'' She spoke out as she sipped on her coffee.

''Astro Rose, as for now you're under my command and you do what I order you to do, you shouldn't be going around like my ship is a playground, you're not a little kid anymore! I wouldn't want you to keep flying around with that gundam without some proper commands, you've been captured once by the enemy and you have already entered the battlefield three times now with a high advanced mobile suit weapon. You should taking much more responsibility on your actions!'' Negevi shouted out slamming her hand against the wall, I never saw her so serious or upset before, she stood up looking down at me.

She slowly sat back down and kept her eyes on me. ''You're a very valuable asset to the federation and to our crew, you should start putting more trust in your fellow comrades, and not fight alone. I wouldn't want you to get captured again and if you do, we cannot put our lives into saving your ass again and again.'' Ahra sighed out as she gave me the dead eye look, keeping me in my seat from moving.

''When we were told to attack the palace on the northern east coast of Canada on our own, to be honest with you. We were already weary to the bone, but then commander Ahra spoke up, She called it a rescue hostage operation. She said we owed you one. She was trying to fulfill her responsibility that people should have for one another.'' Negevi spoke slowly as she cooled down, placing her hands around the back of her head. I didn't move from my seat, I kept looking at both of them, and I slowly gathered myself together ''I understand, I'll begin relying more trust into my team then going in taking it all for myself. I shall take more responsibility over my actions. I'll follow every order you will give me. I'll drive my heart and power into piloting the gundam to help many in combat when they need me the most..''

Ahra slowly placed her hands to the table, bringing them close towards my fingers, and slowly gripping around my right hand. ''Even though some lives may have been saved, but so many were lost, this is where you need to stop playing around and start following orders or something like that could happen again. We need you here to trust and believe in us too..'' Ahra spoke out slowly standing up beside the table and she began to walk off, and left the room. I'd watch her leave the room through those doors, and I was left with my commander, my guardian. Negevi.

She looked at me too, sighing out tiredly as the vixen got off from the couch and slowly patted me on the head. ''Be a good boy for me will you.'' Negevi giggled up as she left me in the room, leaving the doorway.

I looked at my plate, not much was left on the table, the steamed rice slowly cooled down with the loaf of bread still heated up with it's fluffy interior, i rip it in half to see the milky chocolate oozed out from the middle of the loaf, and i take a good bite out of the hot chocolate bread. It was so delicious. For dessert, for the end of my breakfast, I'd continue crunching and ripping my way through the loaf. I chug down the glass of cold sweet milk, licking the rims of my glass cup to get every bit of that milk. I haven't had a good meal like this since my father was first free at his work, about four months ago. We were at the table, talking about Okuri and myself but I never thought in my entire life that I was going to fight her, and it pained me to the gut.

A flashback begins..

I was running, I kept on running through the streets. I was trying to find a way back home, back to the Mansion. I was only fourteen when it happened, I was being chased by a small group or rather tall group of four meter tall wolves and bears, running through the alleyways in my cloak that was all blue with embleming of the royal family. I was young, they were growling in hunger and they were excited as they continued to come closer and closer. I made the wrong turn and found myself in a dead end, I had nowhere to go, all cornered up by these bullies. I was pulled out from my corner, punched in the gut, thrown around like ragdoll against the wall, and was held to ground with one's footpad pressing against my back.

''Get off me!'' I pleaded out in fear, surrendering myself towards these punks, and they ignored every plea I made. They laughed it out, breaking my left wrist, and they continued to toy with me.

''It's funny you know, kid! Why is a royal out here on our turf! While your damn kingdom is killing our fathers, the ones we loved and cared for! You have no right here, we should tell the federation to expose you brat-'' The wolf spoke and was cut off as he was punched to the face, a navy blue furred kitsune with some red highlights on her short hair appeared in the alleyway. I scooted backwards towards the wall, holding myself together as this kitsune gal would start beating the shit outta these punks.

The kitsune could be seen fighting these towering bastards, she was just as tall as myself, I could feel the immense pain from my cheeks and back.

''Go pick someone on your own size you disgusting mutts!'' She shouted out as slides out a knife gripping it in her left hand, defending me from those freaks. They laid on the ground with their faces covered with blood, pouring from their noses and jaws, and they slowly got up growling in anger. I'd watch Okuri creating her fighting pose, her right leg straightened back and her left leg bending down, and with her left hand gripping the long knife in a reversed grip.

She seemed so strong, a smile slowly created upon her face, and her eyes began to spark up a bit. This world we live in, it was full of hate and discrimination with everyone looking down at me, was i really just some rat. A human abandoned by his guardian, no parents to lend him love or support as i have to go through this life with everyone looking down at me, and yet she's there. She's here to stand by my side to shield me from others. I slowly stood up, holding my lower stomach as it sparks up in pain, and walked next to her as I raised my fists.

With that my flashback begins to fade away from my eyes, looking down at my glass of water as it trembles, and falls off the table. The glass slowly falling at slow motion, the liquid dropping out slowly, and I reached out my hand for the cup. As I grabbed it, the motioning effects fades away. ''Woah.''

I get out of my seat, slamming my hand besides the window to see we were about the skies, an city being terrorized by macros with their armored suits. ''What's going on!'' I rush through the room, dressing into my red combat suit, and grabbing my helmet. The ship began to shake, soldiers running to their battle stations with their blue and white uniforms plugged up with gear, the alarms sounding out alarms across the ship, and things weren't looking too good. I ran through the hallways, heading to the main bridge where everyone was preparing for battle.

I look at Negevi and Ahra in their battle thrones, raising out their hands and ordering their soldiers to fire at will. ''Astro, get to the gundam and wait for my order!'' Negevi shouted out towards me, I nodded and I rushed back through the hallways, with the ship shaking all around me.

I passed by the civilians and soldiers, including that family, the one that allowed me to stay while I was at the Canada kingdom. ''Hey pilot, wait!'' The German shepherd boy rushed towards me, grabbing my wrist, and pressing two bracelets. ''Wear these, i think they should give you some good luck!'' The boy smiled out, I looked down towards him as I slid the bracelets around my wrists, and locked on the gloves onto my space suit.

''Thank you, for not calling me a prisoner this time kiddo!'' I smiled back as I ran through the hallways, waving back towards the German shepherd boy who seemed so happy now. I made my way towards the docking bay where my mobile suit was being upgraded to its core, seeing the new decals painted on the shoulders and chest of the kitsune gundam.

I jumped through the air, floating through the large room towards the hatch of my mobile suit, and slowly climbed into the cockpit, turning on all controls. A mechanic leaned beside the doorway of the hatch, holding out her tablet. ''I upgraded your sets of weapons, I hope you enjoy swords as much as I do. It's similar to the katana but the edges and blade are surrounded with the beam particles while the outer part of the blade is all gundanium alloy. Make sure you put it to good use, i wanna see you fight with it!'' The mechanic lady giggled out as she floated away from the edges of the hatch.

I smiled out, as the hatch of my mobile suit closed. The interface glowing and popping out before my eyes. ''Astro, prepare for launch..'' I listened to her voice, Negevi called out for me again. I watched as the doors for the launch bay opened to outer space, we were over the earth's atmosphere. My body began to shake up a bit, blood rushing through my veins once again with a shiver sending down my spine.

''Astro Rose. Kitsune. Taking off!''
