Outside the delivery room his wife was in, Turquoise Blitz paced the floor as Nidra held onto Oasis. Annie came into a few hours ago when Nidra was visiting. She was quickly rushed to the hospital thanks to Nidra’s teleportation, though they had to do a few jumps to get here.
T’s mother and father, as well as his sister and Fluttershy, soon came into the room. “You know, you'll put a rut in the floor if you keep doing that,” said Rarity.
T looked up at his mother. “I know… it's just that… I'm so nervous about being a daddy again.” He said.
Spike smiled. "Come on, T. You know that's just crazy talk.” He said.
T smiled. "Thanks, dad," he said.
At that moment, the doctor came out and looked T right in the eye. After a tense moment, the doctor smiled. “Congratulations, Turquoise Blitz. You have a very healthy baby colt," he said.
“Did you hear that, Oasis?” Nidra said to T’s daughter. “You have a little brother now.” Oasis just giggled as a response.
"Can we go see them?" Fluttershy asked, clearly worried for her adopted daughter.
"Sure, but keep it brief. Anthea and the baby need to rest," said the doctor.
T made his way to the delivery room door and opened it. There, on the hospital bed, was Anthea, and sleeping in her hooves, was a newborn unicorn colt. His coat is a darker shade of green than T’s and so is his mane.
"Is that…?" muttered T.
Annie, who was looking very tired after the long labor, smiled at T’s presumed location. "This is our new baby, T," she said.
“Oh, he’s beautiful!” Rarity said as Nidra places Oasis on Annie’s bed. The little filly walks up to the her baby brother and giggles happily.
“Have you two picked out a name?" asked Claire.
T and Annie looked at each other, before one word came out of Annie’s mouth.
“Apollo.”

Crescent Moon and Bastion are reviewing all of the data they have on the particles generated by the Gundams. “So, those special particles are diversely mutable photons after all.” Crescent Moon said.
“That’s not all. The Gundams are creating these special particles in their engines. I don’t know how else to explain their seemingly limitless flight range and extended operation time.”
“It must also have something to do with the fact that only six Gundams have appeared.”
“Whoever invented these machines was someone of formidable intellect.” Bastion said.
“But why would they carry out something as unrealistic as the eradication of war?”
“My best guess is based on what we know. So far all but one of the Gundams armed interventions have one thing in common: Gorn Industries was somehow involved with the conflict. Either aiding one side or selling weapons to both. And whenever they fought against pilots from Gorn Industries they showed no mercy, but when they fought agains anyone not associated with that compony they left them alive. That suggests that one of their true missions is to stop Gorn Industries from growing. That’s how I see it.”

The repairs to the Da Vinci are going along greatly. As the Haros finish welding the hull of the ship form the few shots that made it through the QN Field, others are helping with the Gundams upgrades, some of which are putting the Death Blade’s armor back on.
But Amani is worried. Worried about the pilot of the Zeheart. That machine. A high mobility super solider type mobile suit. And that pilot. He can use his Quantum Region like me. There’s no doubt about it. That pilot is just like me. The Gorns really are continuing the QRS. That accursed surgery! With a sigh, Amani floats out of her bed and heads to the bridge.

“You want to head down to the surface?” Graham asked Amani.
“Yeah. I want some time to myself, and the castle base is the best place to do that.” Amani replied.
“Okay,” Graham said after a few moments. “You’ll have to be quick. I don’t want the Gorns to see you. Understand?”
“Yes, sir.”

“Roger, I have control. Sand Dune. Amani Quattro. Commencing intervention,” with that she launches out of the ship and speeds towards Terra. Within a few minuets she’s near the atmosphere. “Activating QN Field,” she said. Soon the QN Particles form a protective bubble around the Sand Dune as it enters the atmosphere.

“Amani is on her way. With any luck she won’t get noticed by the Gorns.” Amanda said as she slowly sews back together an ancient tapestry.
“That’s good to hear. Snowflake was starting to get a little fussy without Amani around.” Chrysalis said. “Where’s Lance?”
“He locked himself in his room, working on some system he wants to use with the Gundams.” Amanda answered. “After what happened to the Da Vinci in space, he wants to make sure we can handle any situation that can happen.”
“Have you talk to him lately?”
“No, not yet. He’s concentrating so hard on it that I’m actually afraid to.” Amanda admitted as she finishes the tapestry. “There! Fully restored to its former glory!” The tapestry in question depicts Celestia when she raises the sun, he wings fully extended.
“I’m still surprised that you’ve restored all of the tapestries that were turned into tightropes.”
“Oh, this was nothing.” Amanda said as she gives Chrysalis the tapestry. The royal changeling them flies up and places it back where it belongs. After three months the castle’s restoration was nearly complete. The actin thrones where Celestia and Luna once sit were place back where they belonged, all weapons and antiques found though out the castle ware restored and placed where they belonged. And whats more, a garden had been planted in the ancient castle’s patio, where crops such as corn, strawberries, cherries, apples, lettuce, tomatoes, and potatoes were being grown.
But the castle has also been repurposed for the Gundam Meister’s needs. The old dinning room was turned into a mobile suit hanger, where the Gundams can be placed when they’re on the surface. Many of the bedchambers were now used to hold the changelings, with the royal bedchambers on the top floor used by the Gundam Meisters themselves. The main throne room now housed several computers that control hundreds of security cameras across the castle, along with a few other things.
And of course the tapestries that were turned into tightropes were fully restored, and seemed better than the day they were made. That’s what Chrysalis thought as she places it back where it belongs. “They look beautiful.”
“Thank you, dear.” Amanda responded with much pried. Suddenly one of the computers beeps, meaning one of a few things. Checking it, Amanda sees that Amani in within a few kilometers of the castle. “She’s here.”

Knight At-Lass, Warrior No-Ble and Princess Lo-Vee are currently being spoken to by Lo-Vee’s father, King He-Ll, over a live video feed. “The data collected on the Winged Gundam during its capture.” He said as footage of that time are shown, before witching to the Gundam’s ship. “Images of the Shadow Bolt’s mission recorders of the Gundam’s mothership.” The screen then goes to show the Pink Gundam without it’s armor. “And the Pink Gundam shedding its armor. It’s simply not worth the cost of several hundred-thousand probes and more than 20 Shadow Bolts.”
“We have no excuse, sir. We are prepared to face disciplinary action.”
“I have no plans to relive any of you, and you cannot resign. It’s true that the operation was a failure, but that hasn’t change my evaluation of you one bit. The Gundams abilities simply surpassed all of our expectations.”
“Excuse me, your highness, but we still know very little about the Gundams, or what their true limits are. Any further operations could be costly, so we need to be better prepared of anything at all.”
“That is why I wan’t you and Lieutenant Ibrahim to personally fight against the Gundams from now on. And capture one, if possible.” When the King said that, No-Ble smiles.
“Thank you, your highness. And, if I may be so bold, but there is one Gundam I wish to fight against.”
“And which is that?”
“Let me guess, the Alicorn Gundam? The one you first encountered when they arrived?” Lo-Vee asked.
“Indeed.”
Medical wing
The Trooper in charge of maintaining Lieutenant Ibrahim is currently reviewing the Zeheart’s mission recorder. “Stay back! Ahhhhhhhhh!” The Gundam Meister screamed.
“Hmmm. As the Lieutenant’s Zeheart approaches, the Gundam Meister experiences increased pain. Clearly she’s being affected by the Quantum Brainwaves.” Typing a few things in his computer, he has the pilot’s voice to look of any match in the former Geo-Sphere Quantum Research Devision’s archives. Soon he gets a hit. “There is one, Patient K-97. Let’s see. ‘Real name: Amani Quattro. Developed a brain tumor when 3-years-old. Had to undergo a Quantum Brainwave Surgery to save her life. Right eye changed color to a deep, dark red, in contrast to her pink left eye, as a side effect. Extremely probable that alternate personality manifested. Current status … Unknown?’ This isn’t good. If she now knows where the Super Solider Institute is after she escaped the transport, and if the top brass find out about this then-”
Suddenly he gets a call. Answering, he sees that it is Knight At-Lass. “Did you find anything from examining the Zeheart’s mission recorder?”
“Well, nothing significant yet, sir. Why are you so interested?”
“I believe that the Gundam Meister and Lieutenant Ibrahim are the same type.”
“Well, humanity did discover the Quantum Region of the brain and began experimenting with it. There is a possibility that she was a test subject.”
“Well, if you find anything let me know.”
“Understood.”

Amani is on a balcony, overlooking the forest. Ordinarily she would just look out into the forest and observe all of the unique forms of animal life there is. But not tonight. Tonight she’s thinking about what to do. This is so frustrating! Should I tell Lance and the others about it, or should I just-
“There’s only one thing you can do!” Someone behind her suddenly said. Even though she’s behind her, Amani know’s exactly who it is, despot the fact that she isn’t there.
“Asami!” Amani said under her breath.
“That detestable program is still in existence, only now the Gorns are running the show. And it’s still making people like you and me one after the other, which makes that institute guilty of promoting war.”
“Y-You want me to destroy it, and the people … like us? But we don’t even know where it is.”
“I know where. I hacked into that ships mainframe after it blew, and discovered that the Gorns secret Super Solider Institute is disguised as a multistory orphanage in Manehattan.”
“An orphanage? You can’t really mean…”
“Is the sweet and kindhearted miss Amani too good for that kind of work?” Asami asked. “Then hand your body over to me. I’ll deal with the issue real quick! Just like I did before.”
Amani’s eyes widen in horror at those words, remembering a horrifying time from long ago. “No! I don’t want to die!” A boy cried as he tries his best to get away from her, only to hit the wall. “Amani! Amani!”
“It’s no good. You’re gonna die!” She said. There’s blood from all of the others all over her dress and part of her face. And whats more is that she has a gun!
“Amani, please…” The quivering boy tried to say.
“No! My name isn’t Amani.” Asami said as she aims the gun at the boy’s head and fires.
Amani gasps, catching her breath form the flashback she just had. “No! No. Forget it, Asami. We don’t have to kill anyone. We can simply take them into custody. They can help out here like the changelings. Or we can hand them over to Princess Celestia. She’ll know what to do with them.”
“What future does a person who was rebuilt for combat possible have? You know that answer all to well. Huh, miss Gundam Meister?”
“You’re wrong!” Amani nearly shouted, on the verge of tears. “The only reason I received that QRS was because of a brain tumor. And I only joined the GUNDAM Project because-”
“Because the only thing you can do is fight!”
“No!”
“Because that is our destiny!”
“You’re wrong! I’m not-!” Amani shouted as she turns around, only to see that Asami is gone, and someone else too her place. “Chrysalis.”
“Is something wrong?” Chrysalis asked.
“Uh … no. Nothing’s wrong.” Amani lied as she leaves.

A hooded white unicorn trots carefully through this small maze. Normally, a high society pony like him wouldn’t be caught dead in a place like this. But he needs to meet with somepony. Somepony who can help him with his ambition. Finally he reaches the meeting place, where a zony is waiting. “What took you so long?” The zony asked.
“I normally try to avoid anyplace like this, so I’m not used to walking here. And I didn’t want to get my hoofs dirty. You wouldn’t believe what a nightmare it is to clean white hoofs. Actually allowing peasants to clean them is irritating.” The high society unicorn spatted.
“Man, you high society folks sure are selfish. Now, you wanted to talk to me about a job?”
“Yes,” the unicorn said, levitating a picture to the zony in a light blue aura. “I want you to capture this mare. I don’t care how, as long as she stays alive and in one piece.”
Taking the picture, the zony sees that it’s Princess Luna’s daughter: Princess Nidra. “You wan’t me to capture an alicorn alive? I’m not real sure that’s possible.”
“It should be far easier than you think. After all, she’s not very powerful. The only thing you would probably have to worry about is that she’ll use her magic to put you to sleep.”
“Still, it’ll be easier said than done.”
“If we succeed, than I’ll pay you more money than you could possibly imagine.”
The zony whistles in response. “Now that is tempting indeed. You got yourself a deal, boss.”

“It could work. If all is successful than we can at least stabilize the economy.” Luna replied. “But I doubt the residents of the deserts and badlands will agree to it. Some towns in that area have their economies based on either oil or coal exports. And many Traditionalist live there as well.”
“Perhaps they will understand. After all, all they want is what they believe is best for Equestria.” Supernova said.

Lance’s room can only be described as one thing: a library that threw up. Books and papers are scattered all over as computers display different schematics that he design. Right now he’s at his work bench, creating a new system for the Gundams. “If this works, than the Gundams will be able to evolve for any situation.” He said out loud. Many 0s and 1s are on the main screen, the basic structure of the system he's writing.
Suddenly, a knock at his door inter ups him. “Can I come in, if that’s all right?” The quiet, timid voicer of Amani said.
“You can.” Lance replied, turning around in his chair.
“Are you busy?” Amani asked as she enters the room.
“I was, but it’s nothing too big. What do you want?” Lance asked.
“I…” Amani hesitated, but soon gets a serious look on her face. “I have a proposal for a mission.”
“A mission?” Lance asked.
“Yes,” Amani answered. "It’s an armed intervention against a hidden Gorn facility that’s promoting war. The program they’re currently doing is an important part of my past.” Amani then pulls out a data rod from her pocket. “The details of the experiments and its location are all on this.” Amani places the data rod on Lances work bench before leaving. “Please have a look when you can.” She said before leaving.
Putting aside all of his other projects, Lance plugs in the data rod and opens the file on it. He gasps when he sees the name of the documents. “‘Geo-Sphere Quantum Research Division Super Solider Project’? Then … that means … the rumors about Amani … are true!”

Starburst could only stare at him in shock. “You calling me fat!?”
“W-What?! No of course not, Star! You have a perfect figure! And a very intimidating one, at that!” Starfall said, trying helplessly to save himself. “Now, let’s see. Lance showed up in Ponyville not long after you found that human on the beach.” Thankfully that saved him from his Beloved Nemesis’ wrath for the moment.
“And then we found out that several facilities belonging to Gorn Industries have been attacked.” Star added as their lunch arrives. A large for Starfall, and an extra-large for Starburst (of course).
“Then a couple of months later the Gundam Meister’s show up. And when Illusion meet up with Lance in Saddle Arabia he said that Lance was a Gundam Meister.” Starfall added as he pours some ketchup on his burger.
“Just makes you wonder, what are they up to?” Starburst asked before she takes a bite of her burger. “And what … they’re … going … to do … next.” She added in between bites.

“You want us to enter the atmosphere as a diversion for Amanda and Amani?” Graham asked.
“That is correct.” Lance said. “The Gorns will surly notice the Da Vinci when it’ll enter the atmosphere, so they won’t bother monitor any of their other bases, especially the one we’re targeting.”
“All right. We needed to get down to the surface anyway. When and where do you want us?” Graham asked, slightly curious.
“Southwest of Haywaii. Now would be good, since both Amani and Amanda have already launched and are heading for their target location. I’ll meet you there.”
“Wait, before you go, what Gorn base are Amani and Amanda going after?” Hilary asked.
“A hidden Gorn institute disguised as an orphanage. I’ll explain the details later. Over and out.”
“Okay, everyone, get ready to head down to the surface. All Gundam Meisters, standby with your Gundams until further notice.”

“Stay back!”

“They’re here! The ones like me!” Amani said as she approaches the target, a 10-story ‘orphanage’ called G-Homes. “What a dumb name! It doesn’t matter, because I won’t hesitate. For I am a Gundam Meister!” She said as she aims the missile lunchers at the building and-
“Stop it! It hurts!”

“I know, but they’ll have lives of misery if I just leave them.” Amani said, though…
“‘Misery’? ‘Misery’ you say? Well, those kids in the lab don’t think of themselves as miserable.” Asami pointed out.
“But they’ll feel that way eventually!”
“Well, do you think that guy flying the Zeheart feels he has a miserable life? That’s not the case is it? You being kind just to make yourself feel better!”
“But they’re alive!”
“They’re not even human! One day they’re gonna come and try to kill us. Show the enemy no mercy! But, you do have an option: I can take over again. Are you just gonna close your eyes and ignore what’s happening and then pretend you did nothing wrong when it’s all over? I’m willing to kill them. I don’t care abut anyone else. I fight to ensure my own survival!”
“I’m not like you!”
“Then why did you come here!? You came here to kill, didn't you!?”
“I didn’t! I came here as a Gundam Meister!”
“You’re killing people because it’s your job? At least pull the trigger with your own emotions. Pull it for yourself! And do it without mercy!”
“I … don’t want to shoot.”

She laughs as the building collapse, killing everyone in it. “Good work! That was nicely done, my other self. Things are sure gonna get interesting.” Asami said, though she’s unable to hold back Amani’s tears.

“The real target was the Super Solider Institute that you belong to.”
“They-They what!?”
“They attacked a hidden facility that was a secret even to me!” The clearly angry Lo-Vee said.
“One of the Gundam Meisters had to have received a QBS and knew where the institute was, and you knew about that. Am I wrong?”
“N-No. I had no idea.” Said the Trooper, but they can tell he’s lying.
“I’m using my authority to shut down this facility.” Lo-Vee said, making the Trooper gasp. “And you'll be thoroughly interrogated.”
“I-I’m gonna be what!?” The Trooper asked as two Drones grab him and cuff his arms.
“The whole damn incident has already been leaked to all of Terra.” At-Lass continued.
“You failed to report this properly, forcing even more changes to the plan and putting our front in an unfavorable position. Take him away!” With that, the two Drones drag the Trooper away, the Trooper trembling in fear.

“A hidden Gorn Industries facility where they were experimenting with orphans to create super soldiers!?” The stunned Celestia asked, having just heard of the scandal from a guard. “How could I have let that happen?” Celestia slumps onto the floor, her husband Discord rushing to her side.
“It’s not your fault, Tia.” Discord said in the most reassuring voice he can muster. “That orphanage was as old as Gorn Industries, so we didn’t do a thorough enough investigation of its builders.”
“I know, but this will just make Equestria’s situation even worse!” Celestia said. “I pray for Faust to guide us now.”
