Fandom Gundam Build Fighters:NEXT

[SpaceRavens03]

“Yo,Koutei,is Jing with you? I've been trying to call him for the past few minutes about the "Celestial Being Mirror Match".”

His eyes widened with surprise at Alex knowing about the battle,Jing quickly spoke.

“How did you know about it!? Who told you!?”

“Well,some girl approached me as asked if I was Lockon Stratos from the Gunpla Faction Wars years back,as usual like what we always did,I denied it...until she told me that "I have a friend who is a cousin of your former teammate",is it really true you have a cousin,Jing?”

“I-I do.”

Realising why Xiao had asked him about their whereabouts,Jing silently noted to himself to sincerely thank his cousin for this later.

“Oh and,what are you doing anyway? I think you've actually received like,I don't know? One hundred missed calls from me?”

“Well.....about that.......my phone just got destroyed several minutes ago,probably before you called me.”

An awkward silence filled the air,before Alex made one remark which seemed to have unusually horrified Jing tremendously:

“Did you get hit with a dose of "Pseudo Personality R35" or something?”

“Ah-! Don't you bring that up!!”

 

[Gundam Watcher 27]

Illya asked, curious. "Psuedo Personality R35? What's that?"

Ribbons laughed, and answered. "It's something between the three of us, top secret."

 

[SpaceRavens03]

“*Ahem* W-well,anyway,I called Amadeo to let him know about the battle. Turns out your cousin's also sent a little birdie to tell him about it.”

“His response?”

“That he'll be flying to Japan in a few days for the battle. Seems the Hallelujah in him's yearning for the fight.”

“Then....what about you?”

“Well.....bad news,I won't be able to make it.”

Jing was quiet for a moment,before sighing in defeat as he understood his teammate's position.

“The good news?”

“I got someone to replace me for the battle,think of him as the "Lyle Dylandy" of the team.”

He found someone capable of rivalling him that he entrusted his position of Lockon Stratos to them...?

 

[Gundam Watcher 27]

Ribbons understood what this meant. The battle between the two Celestial Being teams would happen. That means they have until Friday to get ready.

"Did the invitation Explain where we'll be meeting up at?" He asked.

-Elsewhere-

Shindou looked at the person on screen. "Kyoji Kasshu, you show your face to me and expect forgiveness? I don't accept how you tried handling this. You tried to kill them, and I'm already in anger that Emiya decided to team up with Illya and the White Devil. I'm officially turning down your services!"

He turned the screen off, before looking towards the other Setsuna. "Your friends don't even know why you set the challenge up, I'm impressed." "Just remember our deal." "I already paid the hospital. Your father is getting the treatment as we speak."

-Kyoji, Warehouse-

Kyoji crushed his phone. "Looks like I'll need to enlist help from our partnership with the Yakuza."
He took out another phone, before dialing up the leader.

 

[SpaceRavens03]

“Hmm? This is...a rather strange choice.”

Jing muttered,reading the notes written in the invitation.

 

[Gundam Watcher 27]

'We'll be waiting at the GBWT Stadium at 5:00pm on Friday. Don't be late.'

 

[SpaceRavens03]

“Do they really need such a huge stage for this?”

“Probably for the thrill? With that being said,I think you guys are gonna have to start working on your Gunplas. The other Celestial Beings are not gonna be easy enemies after all.”

 

[Gundam Watcher 27]

Illya pondered the thought about why they wanted to battle at the stadium from yesterday. Elizabeth seemed to figure out the answer. "Maybe they want to broadcast this fight to the entire world? It would explain the setting."

-Warehouse-

Kyoji was waiting for the other end to pick up. 'why does it always take so long for them to answer?'

 

[SpaceRavens03]

“Wonder how they got the permission to do so then...”

---------------------
Warehouse
---------------------
Just as he had muttered about them not receiving the call any sooner,Kyoko would then see his call get received,a cocky voice left the speaker of the phone.

“Well,why isn't it the discount-Head Mafia of Toy Battles himself!”

The man behind the line chuckled,pissing Kyoji off with the comment.

 

[Gundam Watcher 27]

-warehouse--

Kyoji growled. "I'll pretend you didn't insult me for the current situation I'm in. You remember that favor you said you would do if I need it? Now is a good time to spend it. I need a certain head pilot of Celestial Being killed off, or his spirit broken. Whatever works better."

-Iori's Models-

"Perhaps it's because they had outside sources funding it?" A voice replied. The group turned around, to see a girl around Jing's age, that no one really knew well unless they heard of the Crimson Angel.

"Hina!" Elizabeth called to her. Hina smiled and waved at Elizabeth.

 

[SpaceRavens03]

“You mean ruin some poor son's life? My men's getting bored,so eh,why not. Plus......some of em are buddies with a gang whom that asshat's beaten up before,so this...will be fun.”

-------------------------
Iori's Model Shop
--------------------------
“Hina?”

Jing muttered under his breath,not recognising the new girl who had just arrives in the scene.

“Liz,you know her?”

Kotori asked as Hina waved at Elizabeth.

 

[Gundam Watcher 27]

-Iori's Models-

"Well, if you remember the tournament I was in before I became the champion for a while, I was in a tag battle with her."

Elizabeth then looked back towards Hina. "It's been a while." "And it seems you and Kotori finally got together." Hina would point out, noticing the two were close.

-Warehouse-

"Then I will be waiting on results. How soon can you get it done?"

 

[SpaceRavens03]

-------------------
Warehouse
--------------------
“Depends on how well guarded and close the guy I'll be using is that will kickstart it. If things go well......”

The man behind the line smirked before adding.

“He wouldn't be the only one heavily affected.”

---------------------------
Iori's Model Shop
---------------------------
“You could say that.”

Kotori smiled as she confirmed Hina's comment.

“What brings you here however?”

 

[Gundam Watcher 27]

-warehouse-

"Explain." Kyoji would reply, now curious.
"Illyasviel von Einzbern will also be affected, and with them both out of the picture, Shindou Ikari will be awarding us both with power and money. It's a win win for the three of us."
"Would Shindou be accepting this however?"
"He will, when we succeed."
Kyoji smiled before laughing.

-Iori's Models-

"I heard Setsuna was around here somewhere and I wanted to meet him! I'm such a big fan of his!" Hina replied.

Illya smiled, "That's great! But I think He left currently."

"Oh. I see. Well then, would any of you be nice enough for me to try and get some practice in? I have something going on Friday, and need to see if any of my skills need improving." Hina would explain, scratching her back.

 

[SpaceRavens03]

"Have something going on in Friday"? Could it be a coincidence....?

Jing wondered as he looked at Hina. From what she had said,was she perhaps also seeking a match against Setsuna too?

 

[Gundam Watcher 27]

Emiya would look at the others, before saying, "I can battle you. Anyone else object to it?" He asked while giving Jing the evil eye.

 

[SpaceRavens03]

“Sure,go ahead.”

Jing responded without skipping a beat whatsoever. He really isn't in the mood to argue with anyone. As usual,Hibiki doesn't exactly seem to notice her actual brother's distrust towards her adoptive older brother,much to the other 3 sisters' worry.

I get the feeling that if Hibiki knew what was going on,she would've put an end to this "brotherly rivalry" within a few seconds.....

---------------------------
"Please Set Your GP Base"

 

[Gundam Watcher 27]

The two just set their GP base in before it could even say anything. Emiya would place his gunpla, a custom Khishatriya, resembling a dragon, while Hina placed a Sword Strike Custom.



One thing for certain, the fight is definitely a David vs Goliath match, because the Khishatriya was at 1/60 scale, far bigger that 1/144 scale that the Sword Strike was at.

As soon as the field generated, a city in partial ruin, the gunpla took off.

Illya had started laughing, causing Hibiki to look at her confused. "Is there a joke I don't get?"
"No, I just realized this would have made a great movie if there was one for it."

 

[SpaceRavens03]

“The idea of a Mobile Suit pilot fighting against a Mechanical Eldritch Abomination does sound like a rather interesting idea. Although this is probably more of an "Adventurer vs Giant Dragon"-esqe scenario.”

Unlike the common scenes featuring the scenario Jing had mentioned however,the Khyshatrian Dragon was nowhere as slow as most dragons are,as it was somewhat faster than expected despite its size. The Crimson Striker wasn't that easy to take down either,as Hina was able to skillfully maneuver pass whatever weaponry her Gundam's opponent had threw at her.

 

[Gundam Watcher 27]

Hina was quite excited for this. Her gunpla may be at a disadvantage with no ranged Weapons, but that would be a blessing due to the opposing Gunpla having an I field deployed. An I field can't affect solid melee weapons.

As the Khishatriya Dragon fired it's quadruple MPC, the Crimson Strike Gundam vanished in a split second, before reappearing beside the beam, it's sword absorbing some of the energy as it flew towards the larger MS.

Hibiki could have sworn that was the same technique she and Sakura used.

 

[SpaceRavens03]

“Even she has it too?”

Meanwhile Jing,momentarily deciding to shift his attention away from the battle for a short while,went to talk to Xiao.

<“Xiao,a moment of your time please?”>

<“Don't tell me. Let me guess. You wanna show gratitude for getting in contact with your other guys?”>

Speechless for a minute,Jing hesitant nodded in confirmation to what his cousin had said.

<“Among other things,yes. I really mean it,thank you for getting them before I could,Xiao Dan.”>

His gratitude seemed to have caused Xiao to smirk in response,as if she was waiting for this moment.

<“Heh,always wanted to hear you say that for once.”

<“Gh- You little....!”>

 

[Gundam Watcher 27]

The Khishatriya Quickly moved all four wings to the front, before the sword swing down. The damage caused all four wings to shatter, but otherwise, the main body was okay. The Khishatriya Quickly ejected all four wings before flying back, Activating both wrist hidden beam sabers.

The Crimson Strike threw it's sword away, before drawing both daggers. It then flew forward, both gunpla's attacks connecting, but the Khishatriya wasn't landing and blows. The Crimson Strike however stabbed the right eye and destroyed the main camera by hitting the connector. It also struck the chest a couple of times, but eventually flew back and threw both daggers forward, before grabbing it's sword again, and charging forward.

 

[SpaceRavens03]

“Some fan she is,she seem to have nailed some of the moves that Setsuna himself demonstrated.”

Kotori mused as she watched Hina's Gundam battle the "Beast". Jing was eventually back to continue spectating.

“What did I miss?”

 

[Gundam Watcher 27]

"Emiya getting is butt kicked is what!" Ribbons answered, more absorbed into the fight than usual.

"Really? That definitely isn't a rare thing. What is Hina doing that's troubling him?"

"Well... She seems to be using your battle style." Ribbons answered.

The Khishatriya attempted to fire it's MPC again, but before it could, the Strike Gundam Teleported into the air above, and as it descended, slashed into the head down, cutting the former in half.

 

[SpaceRavens03]

It teleported without the use of GN Drives? Seems she's taken a page from Maxwell.....

Jing folded his arms,thinking about the ability and also what Ribbons had told him.

And,suing my style? It couldn't have been a coincidence.....could it?
