What?! Junius Seven is moving?
But how?!
I have no idea.
Only that it is in fact moving, at quite a speed...
...and on the most dangerous possible route.
It's impossible to change its orbit.
If we want to avoid a collision, we have no choice but to smash it to pieces.
But that thing's huge.
The Voltaire and the Rousseau have taken the Meteor Breakers and gone ahead.
Right. We should hurry as well.
That guy's flying out as well, I'm told.
They say for support work like this, the more machines we can get out, the better.
Really. Well, he is capable of piloting mobile suits.
What's going on?!
I have no idea.
What remains unchanged is that our mission is to support the Joule Team!
Upon completing equipment switch, please proceed for take off!
The situation has changed. It could be dangerous.
Would you rather not go?
Give me a little respect!
Athrun Zala, taking off!
I won't let you pests...
No one will get in our way! Not now!
Commander!
Retreat! We need to retreat for now!
I'm sending out rifles for your GuAIZes!
Dearka, protect those Meteor Breakers! I'll be right there myself!
So those forces are using GINNs?
Yes. They appear to be using High Maneuver Type 2s.
Any mother ship close by?
No sign of one.
But what the hell?
Does this mean these guys are responsible for altering Junius Seven's orbit?
What fool would do such thing?!
But if that's true, it's all the more reason why we can't let them drop it on Earth!
Please update Rey and the others!
Yes, ma'am!
Princess...
Right. Where's Athrun?
What? You don't know?
Huh?
He came to us and asked that he be allowed to help.
Right now, he's out there.
Who are these guys, anyway?! They're experts at piloting those GINNs!
The workers are to continue with the demolition!
If we stop, we're playing right into their hands!
You've gotta be kidding, causing all this commotion in a place like this!
So are you the ones responsible for making this thing move?!
What the... Chaos, Gaia and Abyss?!
The machines stolen from Armory One!
It's them!
We'll get those three today!
Those machines are not our objective!
I know that!
But they're attacking us!
Unless we get rid of them, we won't get any work done, will we?!
Junius Seven's descent angle has increased by 1.5! Four percent acceleration!
The Joule Team is under attack by the Chaos, the Gaia and the Abyss!
They're unable to continue with the demolition work.
Captain! We should go after Bogey One!
Mr. Chairman. What is your assessment of Bogey One's current involvement?
Pirates? Or part of the Earth Forces?
That's a difficult one.
I would rather not get into a battle with the Earth Forces.
There's no saying what it could trigger, after all.
But the situation has changed.
Yes.
In this emergency situation, if they declare themselves to be with the Earth Forces...
...or associated with the Earth Forces, battling them here would be meaningless.
On the contrary, they could be interpreting our actions as protecting those GINNs.
They couldn't be!
It can't be helped.
If those machines happened to be Daggers...
...you'd be suspicious of the Earth Forces and their participation, wouldn't you?
Can we get in touch with Bogey One?
If we use the International Rescue Channel.
Then try reaching them using that channel.
Make it clear to them that we are making every effort to crush Junius Seven...
...and stop it from falling to Earth.
Damn!
What?
Stop it!
Who is this guy?! He's strong!
This'll finish you, Red Suit!
Not so fast!
I must inform you all of a very serious situation.
As rumored, Junius Seven has drifted out of its orbit...
...and is currently approaching Earth.
Birdy.
The Orb government has formed an alliance...
...with the governments of the world...
...and has discussed the best way to deal with the situation.
Unfortunately, given the lack of time...
...we have yet to come up with an effective solution.
Hey! Wait! Wait, Birdy!
How in the world can it fall at such a speed?!
We have no information about that at this time.
Will it be possible to avoid impact?!
What is the estimated time of impact, and estimated point of impact?!
Currently, the PLANTs and Earth Alliance Forces...
...are working together to crush the object to pieces.
We must inform the citizens of this emergency situation...
...and have people make their way to the shelters quickly.
Is there enough time?!
What are the chances of success for the demolition operation?!
There isn't enough room in the shelters to accommodate the world's population!
Hurry! If we take our sweet time, it'll be too late even if we can get it to split!
It's secure!
Good!
Great! We did it!
Why, that's...
What's going on here?!
That thing just split in two!
But we're not done yet!
We need to break it into smaller pieces.
Athrun?!
Bastard! What the hell are you doing here?!
That's not important right now!
We must continue with our mission!
R-Right!
I know that!
You haven't changed, Yzak.
Neither have you!
Oh, boy.
Those guys!
Yzak!
Shut up!
I'm the one in command here! Stop giving orders!
You damn civilian!
Auel!
So these are the abilities of the survivors of Jachin Due?
Shinn! What are you doing?! We're not finished with our mission yet!
Looks like they finally believe us.
That may be true, or there could be another reason.
Another reason?
The altitude.
If we continue to fall with Junius Seven...
...the ship won't be able to escape Earth's gravity.
We must decide now what lives we cannot afford to lose.
Who we can save, and who we cannot.
Captain...
I'm sorry to have to bring this up under the circumstances...
...but please make your way over to the Voltaire.
The Minerva will now descend into the atmosphere...
...and continue with the demolition of the object...
...using our main cannon, as long as the ship will hold.
What?! C-Captain! You can't be...
I don't know how much more we can do, but it wouldn't be right...
...if we didn't try everything we could.
Talia. However...
I'm a woman with lots of luck. Please trust me.
All right. Thanks, Talia. I appreciate it.
Thank you. Now, please hurry, Mr. Chairman.
Let's go, Miss.
Tell the Voltaire that Chairman Durandal is on his way!
Send out a retreat signal to the mobile suits!
I'm staying here.
Athrun hasn't returned yet.
And if the Minerva's going to all this effort, then I shall join you!
However, there are other duties where statespersons are required.
If you insist, Miss Representative, I shall respect that.
We've reached critical altitude!
Will the Minerva continue to descend while firing its main cannon?
Attention all hands! Upon retrieving all mobile suits...
...this ship will continue crushing the object with the main cannon...
...while descending into Earth's atmosphere.
What?!
All hands are expected to review their manuals and take appropriate action.
What are you doing?!
Orders have been given for us to return! You should've received the notice!
Yeah, I know. You'd better hurry on back.
You'll end up being blasted away! Are you okay with that?!
Firing from a distance there's a greater margin for error...
...even with the Minerva's main cannon!
So if we can at least get this one going...
Why would someone like you side with Orb?
I won't let you do any more damage!
These guys are still here!
My daughter's tombstone must be dropped and burned for this world to change!
Daughter?
What the...
Why have you forgotten the sorrow of the lives mercilessly thrown away here?!
Why do you live in a fabricated world, laughing with those who caused this?!
Tricked by the cowardly successors of Clyne...
...ZAFT has changed for the worse!
Why can't you realize...
...that for us Coordinators, the path of Patrick Zala...
...was the one and only correct path!
Shinn!
Descent sequence, phase two!
Where are the Impulse and that guy's ZAKU?!
Nothing! I cannot get their position.
Athrun!
This time for sure, we'll let those Naturals know how we feel!
Now, come over here, everybody. Please follow me.
What is it?
Where are we going?
Oh, I know! Shopping, right?!
I still wanna play.
Kira?
It was an unprecedented incident.
Voices from the darkness of the past. Flames.
Does crushing it as it falls bring peace?
As the surface bursts into flames once again, where is Kira?
Next, on Mobile Suit Gundam Seed Destiny...
..."Land of Confusion".
Slice through the hot atmosphere, Impulse!
