Gundam Wing Just wild beat communication
Standing in the lashing rain
I want to show my passionate, undying feelings
With my entire body tonight!
I hold onto your wet shoulders to give you warmth and comfort
What are those shivering fingertips wandering after?
I want to protect the honest look in your eye
Believing in the love that'll change sorrow to strength
Just wild beat communication
Standing in the lashing rain
I want to show my passionate, undying feelings
With my entire body tonight!
The attacks by the Gundams sent by the Space Colonies...
...reflected the colonies' retaliatory intentions.
OZ has masked its identity in the Alliance Military...
...and the Gundams' mission is to attack them.
The year is After Colony 195.
OZ has finally taken center stage.
With an army of elite soldiers at his command...
...Treize Kushrenada plans to destroy the Alliance Military.
The battle between OZ and the mobile suits sent to Earth...
...causes serious repercussions on the Earth.
This is where it starts.
He goes to every family member, seeking their verdict.
Everything he does is thorough and well thought out.
You're such a coward!
You obviously just wanna take the easy way out of this!
It's the only way I can live.
To the Battleground, Antarctica
Last stop.
Satisfied?
It's not that simple.
You can't forgive yourself for accidentally killing a pacifist.
And it happened because you were tricked by OZ.
I can sympathize.
But to put your life in the hands of your victim's family...
That's what I want.
Going from place to place...
...I knew it'd only be a matter of time before someone found us.
I'll take care of it.
Wait.
Shouldn't overdo it in your state.
I'll stop them.
Trowa...
H-hey!
Thanks; I owe you.
No problem.
So...
If we're gonna transport this, we can't do it by land.
- Then by sea... - I've got my eye on a ship.
But now we know that we're being watched.
So it might be difficult.
You can use my carrier.
I didn't expect you to be alive.
It's the first time we've met face to face.
My name is Lucrezia Noin.
I serve under Colonel Zechs.
Zechs?
The pilot you fought against in Siberia.
Don't think we won't put up a fight.
Colonel Zechs wants to meet you.
He does?
To try pumping us for information or something?
Don't misunderstand me.
He's not speaking as an OZ soldier.
He wants to see you as a fellow mobile suit pilot.
He hopes for another chance to fight you boys.
He wants a final match?
Sounds like an admirable guy, this Zechs fellow.
It's up to you guys, whether or not you believe me.
Where is he?
You're gonna trust her?
He's not the kind of guy to plant a trap.
No?
Then my mobile suit will come in handy.
Trowa...!
I haven't confirmed if the pilot of the self-detonated Gundam...
...at the Siberia Base is dead or alive.
I see.
I've been trying to reach Colonel Zechs...
...the OZ pilot that fought the Gundam.
But it seems he's already moved from the Lake Victoria base...
...and I can't reach him.
So we still don't know anything?
Actually, I've been able to find out one thing.
What's that?
Colonel Zechs did something highly peculiar.
Peculiar...?
After the battle in Siberia...
...Colonel Zechs ordered a large amount of Gundanium...
...shipped from outer space.
To reconstruct the Gundam from the remains they collected.
Even I know he was ordered to destroy the Gundam...
...because the OZ found out.
Actually, there are signs...
...that the Gundam which was destroyed might've been a fake.
A fake?
So much Gundanium alloy was shipped...
...they'd easily be able to make two mobile suits out of it.
So they used a portion to build the fake.
Now they're using the rest to reconstruct the Gundam.
I believe so.
What makes that Gundam so special, anyway?
He wants one final match to decide things.
He's that kind of man.
Thirteen years ago, when he was about six...
...I faced him in a fencing match.
He hates his opponent having a handicap.
You know Colonel Zechs?
He was a hero in the eyes of the Peacecrafts.
There are many stories of his bravery.
Really?
If I could get in touch with Colonel Zechs...
...then I might find out what happened to Heero.
Looks like someone else is looking for Heero Yuy.
Who it is?
Mrs. Noventa.
Noventa...?
Yes.
Wife of Marshal Noventa, the Alliance's Chief Commander...
...who was killed by your Gundam friend at New Edwards.
She's trying to keep her search a secret from OZ.
I'd like you to contact Mrs. Noventa right away.
Of course, right away.
I told you he'd be alive, didn't I Noin?
Yes.
He's got a strong will to live.
Thanks for your assistance.
And sorry to drag you into this.
Don't forget that I'm a mobile suit pilot too.
I understand your feelings to a certain extent.
Thank you Noin.
Watch your step around that search party.
Given this situation I won't be able to help you out.
You'll have to somehow deceive them on your own.
I'll take care of it.
Over and out.
We must make the final modifications to 01...
...before they get here.
There are numerous rumors...
...that the Gundam destroyed by Colonel Zechs was a fake.
Should we allow Colonel Zechs to continue acting on his own?
This Zechs issue is becoming quite a topic within Romefeller.
Son?
Now...
A search party from Lake Victoria is in pursuit.
But Zechs would never do anything to cause me trouble.
Everyone's worrying about this too much.
So it was one of OZ's carriers.
Oh?
Then there's a good chance they're aboard the plane.
Think we should just leave them?
Be patient.
They're bound to show their true colors.
Just don't lose sight of them.
Sir.
I won't let them have their way this time.
Will the left arm be automatically balanced...
...for the extra weight?
No, I purposely avoided that.
Instead I've had it at my fingertips...
...so I'll have a speed advantage during battle.
Makes sense.
Seeing them working hard...
They're not different from any other young pilots.
We could keep Colonel Zechs from getting into any danger...
...by getting rid of them right now.
You still don't understand him.
Zechs would never forgive us if we did such a thing.
Has the shield been attached to the Gatling arm too?
Yeah, but it's heavy.
Sorry.
Normally we wouldn't let others touch our own mobile suits.
Then you'd better hurry up and get to know this thing.
Yeah.
But this time I'll defeat Zechs.
Gundam Wing
I contacted Mrs. Noventa, and she's forwarded this letter.
She said she'd like you to deliver the letter for her.
Mrs. Noventa?
Yes, it's made out to Mr. Heero Yuy.
To Heero?!
"Your sudden visit caught me off guard..."
... and I didn't feel that I was able...
... to express the true feelings in my heart.
That's why I decided to write this letter.
You made a mistake when your plan went awry in battle.
But stop suffering over it.
My husband and Ventei died trying to build a world...
... where genuine young men like yourselves...
... could live happily.
I have no regrets.
That's what happens in war.
A wrong turn in the past can be painful for anyone.
But you people are still young!
I hope you'll think about building a new future!
Our family is honored to have met with you!
"I pray the day will arrive when all battles cease."
"To my dear friend, Mr. Heero Yuy:"
So Heero's still alive.
I knew he'd be alive!
I'm leaving for Sicily.
I'll meet Mrs. Noventa and ask where Heero is!
Right.
I'll make flight arrangements.
See?
Heero was alive after all!
I can't have our special guests catch a cold.
Put these on.
Where are we headed?
The South Pole.
A mobile suit battle on a continent covered in ice?
It's the only place to have a battle and go unnoticed.
Colonel Zechs.
All areas needed to determine ability have been restored.
Measuring abilities isn't enough.
I want this Gundam completely restored!
Why should we take it that far?
I wanna know more.
More about this mobile suit, and more about its pilot.
It's impossible to completely restore the right arm.
It needs power to handle the giant beam cannon...
...and a system to precisely control the beam saber.
We'd need enough time to build a whole new mobile suit.
Then at least complete the beam saber system...
...using parts from the left arm of Tallgeese.
Colonel Zechs, what are you trying to prove?
Please, just try to indulge me.
As you wish.
Everyone listen up!
New instructions for the restoration of 01’s right arm!
Problem, Lieutenant!
Our craft is being followed by a number of carriers.
They've found us.
We spotted them when we reached the continent.
They've calculated our flying range.
They must've realized we'd be headed for Colonel Zechs' base.
We'll throw them off by changing directions.
No.
If we sacrifice two Aries, we could break free of them.
Then even if they know the base location we can attack.
Right!
Stop lying.
You wouldn't do anything to burden Zechs.
You're going on the Aries?
You'll be overpowered by their numbers.
My mission is to get you to the destination safely.
The method is up to me!
Two Aries suits have been dropped and are free-falling.
They haven't righted themselves yet!
Don't be tricked by their pranks!
We'll release our suits too!
Let's go!
Roger!
Carrier One's going down!
- Spread out! - Roger!
One more shot and Carrier Two's down.
Get back in the clouds and be patient!
No, I'm going for it!
Gotcha!
No!
You all right?!
I'm sorry!
That was careless.
Lieutenant!!
Backup troops?!
This time take me directly to Zechs and the Gundam.
Fire!
I'll cover for you, Lieutenant Noin!
Get outta here while you can!
Don't be ridiculous!
Damn it!
Right!
We have to rescue Lieutenant Noin!
- That's against orders. - What?!
I won't take that crap from you!
Turn us around!
You're too weak.
That's enough!
We surrender!
Why?!
There's no point continuing!
We've thrown down our weapons! We surrender!
Stop attacking us!
Do you think the normal rules apply...
...to someone who's betrayed Romefeller?
I might consider it, if you hand over the Gundam...
...as proof of Zechs' betrayal.
What?!
Unfortunately that won't change Zechs destiny.
We'll finish him off here.
As my reward for defeating him...
...my superior skills will be recognized.
I won't let you get near Zechs!
So Zechs is here after all!!
Damn you!!
Okay, we've got our info.
Get rid of them!
You came back?!
Emergency landing!
Let me off first!
I'll correct the mistakes your weakness caused.
A Gundam!
That's Gundam 03!
That Gundam's strong!
It's too much!
The Gundam will be used as an excuse to get the colonies.
So I can't let anyone report that it was seen here.
Fighting Zechs’ soldiers off at Point 103...
... of the South Pole.
We've located...
... a Gundam...!
"Those who've laid eyes on a Gundam shall not live."
Those are my orders.
That's enough! Stop!
THERE'S A GUNDAM DOWN HERE!!
Damn it.
Why do I have to keep on fighting like this?
These young pilots are too pure.
Are you all right?
The name is Trowa.
I need you to reload the explosives for Heero.
Forget that...
Stop worrying about that right now!
Start thinking about your own welfare!
To be continued
Zechs waits at the South Pole with the completed Wing Gundam.
Heero challenges Zechs to a duel with Trowa's Gundam Heavyarms.
Heero and Zechs commence their battle amidst the snowy winds.
Zechs tries to find something beyond the desperate battle.
As does Noin.
But then Relena arrives.
