【AK】Meet at Dawn

Kira flew close to the Capantaria base with the heavily damaged body. As Aslan judged, the defense line has been breached, and the enemy tanks are heading towards the main gate.

A motorcycle galloped out of the base, bypassed the collapsed line of defense, and rushed towards a route away from the battlefield.Kira seemed to be a little impressed by that face, so he couldn't help but look at it a few more times.

Then he remembered.

It's Perrin, Aslan's roommate.

Has the situation at the base gotten this bad?But if you want to escape, it is also very dangerous to go this way.He rushed into the fire range.

After a few strange glances, Kira fell into the base.After getting off the machine, the maintainer immediately conducted a temporary inspection on the machine.Seeing the change in the maintenance engineer's face, Kira couldn't help asking.

"Any questions?"

"There is a problem with the energy supply circuit, so it's not the lack of energy but the lack of supply," the maintenance engineer turned back and shouted, "Who did the final inspection of the machine before departure?"

From afar, the answering voice came.

"It's Perrin."

"What about others?"

"I don't know, it was still there just now!"

The scene of Perrin leaving the base and the vibration of Aslan's machine appeared in Kira's mind, and fear, panic and anxiety rushed into his heart.

He grabbed the fitter's arm.

"Where's Aslan's body? Is he also overhauling it?"

The repairman opened his eyes wide.The answer is self-evident.

Why?Why did he tamper with the body?Aslan believed him so much, didn't he?

Kira turned around and ran towards an empty mass-produced model.His body has no energy supply, so what about Aslan's?

If he doesn't fly back, he will die!

Tears almost rushed out of the eyes, and the person who wanted to stop him came up and was knocked down by him. Just as he clashed with the maintenance division, Yizhak who rushed to him sternly stopped him.

"Stop it, Kira!"

Kira couldn't calm down, he turned his head, but just looked at Yitzhak, and didn't intend to give up.

"That machine can't be driven yet, didn't you hear?" Yitzhak came up and grabbed his collar, "What do you want to go out with that machine?"

"Aslan, Aslan's body has been tampered with!" Kira roared with tears in his eyes, "He will never come back!"

Yitzhak looked at him steadily, and suddenly ordered. "Tie him up for me!"

Kira's eyes widened suddenly. "What?"

The soldiers came up and quickly tied Kira up.Startled and anxious, Kira glared at Yitzhak angrily.

"Listen to me calmly." Yitzhak's brows were tangled together, and his expression couldn't hide the bitterness. "Aslan's body has been shot down."

Kira stared blankly at Yitzhak, one second, two seconds, three seconds...

"No! I don't believe it!" Hissed and roared.

"Let me out!"

Repeating the same request, struggling frantically, desperately wanting to rush out, desperately wanting to save the person who had been sentenced to death by Yitzhak, Kira repeatedly kicked down the rushing soldiers, but was bound His hands could not fulfill his wish.

At last he was too tired to stand up.

Yitzhak kept looking at him, and when he was powerless to resist, he said slowly: "I have received your transfer order, you can come back to PLANT with me."

Kira raised his head abruptly, tears welling up in his eyes.

"Where's Aslan?"

Yitzhak said nothing.The clenched fist was shaking all the time.Less than a month after Aslan was rescued last time, another accident happened.

He didn't want to see such a result either!

But the enemy's attack is so fierce, the safety of the base is still difficult to guarantee, where is there any extra manpower to rescue?I can only pray for Aslan's fate, even if he is captured, he will be alive.

Live to meet again.

He promised Aslan to take Kira back to PLANT, the most important person to Aslan, and take it away safely no matter what.This is his promise, and it must be done.

"Minister, the shuttle is ready."

Yitzhak nodded to the adjutant behind him, and looked at Kira again.

"Aslan's matter, leave it to the military. Come back to PLANT with me!"

Kira gritted her teeth and turned her head.

"Are you going to destroy Aslan's desire to protect you?" Yitzhak grabbed Kira's collar and roared, "You still have things to do, you still have responsibilities, have you forgotten?! "

Kira stared fixedly at Yitzhak, his blue eyes filled with tears just like his.

He was also a friend of Aslan's, and would feel sad just as much.But the things to be done cannot be given up because of sadness and anger.

"Take him!" Yitzhak shook off Kira, raised his hand to wipe the tears from the corners of his eyes, "Leave on time!"

"Yes!" The adjutant raised his hands in salute, and glanced at Kira.

War is so sad and cruel, even if you don't go to the battlefield, you can still hear the wailing of people who are deeply involved in it.

Perrin passed through the densely shelled land, but the wheels of the motorcycle were hit by flying debris and leaked air, and he could no longer move forward.

The mobile suit fighting ahead was quite intense. Seeing that the mobile suit he handled himself lost its protection and was under siege, Perrin couldn't believe his eyes.

Why...is it Aslan?

Several mass-produced airframes rushed towards that airframe. After the gunfire hit the airframe, blue smoke emitted, and finally turned into a bright flame in the air.The huge explosion sound was deafening, the light was so bright that people couldn't open their eyes, and the debris splashed around, adding countless casualties.

After the gust of wind, Perrin covered the flying ash that captivated his eyes, while running towards the place where the body fell.

This is not the result he hoped for!

It shouldn't be like this!

How could it be Aslan?He obviously gave him enough time to escape back to the base, why is it still him!

Aslan is not dead, but it is not easy.When the body was falling, he used the body to cover the cockpit, activated the self-explosion procedure and escaped. Under the cover of the body, he was not found, and landed 50 meters away from the explosion of the body. Huge fragments came from his body. Flying overhead, extremely thrilling.

A scream behind him made Aslan turn his head.The wounded boy leaning against the stone raised his gun at him in horror, his slender arm was dripping with blood, his fingers were trembling, obviously he couldn't even hold the gun.

The sound of the wind blew past my ears, the roar of guns was everywhere, the danger that could come at any time made people flustered, and the sense of fear made the body tense up.

The boy's fingers locked the trigger, and Aslan jumped forward, his fingers touched the barrel of the gun, and the bullet grazed his ear, causing burning pain.

The young man screamed and almost passed out from the pain.After the danger passed, Aslan noticed that the boy's shoulder had been scratched deeply by the splashed iron, and he could see the white bones.The boy was aiming at him with this injured arm, and although he pushed the barrel of the gun slightly, it was enough to cause the boy severe pain.

Aslan turned around to search, tore off the clothes from the corpse lying beside the boy, and tore them into strips.

The boy struggled to step back, dragging his injured leg and desperately moving, staring straight at Aslan with fearful eyes.

Aslan didn't know why he was so afraid of him, and when he looked down, the red ZAFT uniform on his body came into view.Is that so?

"Don't be afraid, I won't hurt you." Aslan knelt down and stretched out his hand to the boy, "Don't move anymore, your injury is serious, you will die if you do this."

The boy looked at Aslan intently.

"I... hate adjusters the most!"

Aslan stared into the boy's black eyes, and said slowly, "So you want to kill me?"

The boy gritted his teeth and stared at Aslan bitterly.If he had the ability, he would definitely do it!

Aslan lowered his head and sighed, stretched out his hand to brush his forehead hair, and looked at the boy intently.

"I don't like natural people either. Do you want me to kill you?"

The boy's eyes widened in shock.

"I won't kill you, and I don't want to kill you. We are all human!" Aslan said slowly, "Please, let me bandage you. If this continues, you will really die."

Perhaps it was his words that confused the boy's mind, or maybe it was the status quo of his inability to resist that made the boy compromise.Under Aslan's gentle voice, the boy's resistance was obviously reduced a lot.

Aslan approached the boy and carefully bandaged his wound tightly.Excessive blood loss and severe pain made the young man's face extremely pale.After bandaging, the pain was relieved, and the hanging arm also reduced the force on the shoulders, and the feeling improved a lot, and the boy's expression gradually changed.

He looked at the young man in front of him.Although thin but very strong, with a handsome face, wearing a red military uniform, but exuding a temperament as calm as the sea, obviously an enemy, but unexpectedly kind.Are Zaft's soldiers all like him?

Before he could ask, the men in army uniforms who appeared all around pointed their guns at Aslan.The blue hair floated in front of the boy's eyes, and the boy opened his eyes wide again in shock.

Aslan stood in front of him, his protective figure was extremely shocking in the eyes of the young man.

Why?Obviously... the enemy...

The boy stared blankly at Aslan's back.Under such a dangerous situation, Aslan's side face showed determination and fearlessness.With his fingers resting on the ground, his body was stretched into a bow shape, protecting the young man while vaguely showing a counterattack posture.That powerful force posed a real threat to the men around him.The men pressed the trigger nervously, but they didn't shoot for a long time because of the boy.

"Don't kill him!" The boy leaned out from behind Aslan and hissed, "Don't kill him!"

"Iluka! He's an adjuster!" The leading man pointed at Aslan and roared, "How many of us did they kill, have you forgotten?"

"I haven't forgotten!" the boy gritted his teeth and cried, "But...he didn't kill me!"

"Iluka!"

"He's... different from them!"

"What's the difference, the adjusters are the same!"

"It's different! It's different!" Iluka stared at the man, "I won't let you kill him! Absolutely not!"

The man and the boy looked at each other.Aslan's action of protecting Iluka has been noticed by the man from the beginning, which is incredible and hard to understand at the same time.Aslan is a soldier of Zaft, and the boy couldn't stand against his attack at all, why would he show mercy?

Are adjusters so kind?

"Raise your hands," the man ordered calmly, "obediently follow us!"

Aslan stared at the man for a few seconds—he had no choice.Raising his hands behind his head, the man immediately rushed forward and tied his hands.Aslan's heart sank heavily.He once thought about using the young man as a hostage to protect himself, but now he has lost even this opportunity.If a man has the intention to kill, he will definitely not survive.

Kira...

Gritting his teeth tightly, Aslan felt a strong sense of guilt.He promised Kira to live a good life, he must live, is it really impossible?

"Are you afraid of death?" The man put the gun on Aslan's forehead after carrying Iluka on his back, and asked with a sneer.

Aslan looked up at him.

"I just don't want to die."

The man's eyes flashed.

"Someone is waiting for me to go back, and I promised him not to die." Aslan said lightly, "Death is not terrible, what is terrible is that I promised him to live and return to him alive, but I couldn't do it! "

The man looked at him silently.The companions had put away their guns, and if he pulled the trigger, Aslan would die in front of him.Iluka looked at the man nervously, and stretched out his uninjured arm, trying to prevent the man from pulling the trigger.

"Since someone is waiting for you to go back, why did you go to the battlefield?" The man asked in a deep voice, "Why did you attack our village!"

A mocking smile flashed across Aslan's green eyes.

"Say!" The man was irritated.

"I don't know what village you are talking about, but you are the ones who attacked first!" Aslan roared, "If there is no battle, no one needs to go to the battlefield! No one wants to pull the trigger!"

The muzzle of the man's gun hit Aslan's temple heavily. This obviously threatening action caused Aslan's heart to sink severely.The way of survival is to seek perfection through humiliation, but he knows it but can't do it.

"You want to say that you are for protection?"

Aslan looked straight at him. "That's right!"

The green eyes, the straightforward gaze, and the expression without hesitation or regret moved the man's face.

For protection?

Who is not for protection?

"Take him away!" The man turned around, and his companions immediately came up to support Aslan.

"Where are you taking me?!" Aslan looked at the military uniforms they were wearing. It was neither the Earth Army nor which country they were from, which really surprised him.

"Go to the base. You saved Iluka, I won't kill you, but those who lost everything because of you, it's hard to say." The man sneered, and jumped onto the chariot first, and Aslan was pushed onto it. The car, feeling the bumps of the wheels, moved away from the base.The wind blew his hair, and the wind and sand brushed across his face. Aslan watched the battlefield gradually go away, and saw the faintly discernible image of the base, Aslan's mind went blank.

What is he going to do...

The only rationality left in the muddle is the three words he promised Kira.

live.
