Kira Yamato tossed and turned, unable to sleep. He secretly made his way to Lacus Clyne's room.

He planned to return Lacus Clyne to his good friend Athrun Zala.

Then, with Haro's help, he opened the door to the adjacent lounge, startling Liza Kalman inside.

Liza Kalman, who was fast asleep, immediately grabbed a nearby pillow and threw it at Kira in fear.

It was only after Lacus Clyne's explanation that Liza Kalman stopped attacking Kira Yamato and dropped her hostility.

Thor Klune felt their figures were too different. Lacus Clyne had an angel's face and an angel's figure.

Liza Kalman had an angel's face and a devil's figure, and could even rival Mia Campbell.

He sighed to himself, glad he hadn't collected new DG Cells, otherwise he would have missed important plot points. There were still the space suit and the Panzar scenes coming up.

Kira Yamato, pulling Lacus Clyne and Liza Kalman along, quietly slipped out.

As they were walking, they ran into Miriallia Haw and Sai Argyle, who were preparing to change shifts.

Sai Argyle saw Kira Yamato, Lacus Clyne, and Liza Kalman and asked in surprise.

"What are you guys up to?"

Miriallia Haw asked curiously.

"Where are you taking her? Could it be..."

"You don't need to say anything, let me go,"

Kira Yamato closed his eyes in pain and continued.

"I don't want to drag you, Sai and Miriallia, into this. I don't like this situation."

Sai Argyle rubbed the back of his head and said sheepishly.

"That's true. Taking a girl hostage is something a villain would do. I'll help you."

Thor Klune, lying in bed, helplessly held his forehead and sat up.

[Sigh, the plot inertia again. I guess I'll have to get involved too.]

He walked out of the lounge with a smile and said.

"Kira, I'll help too."

Kira Yamato said gratefully.

"Thank you, Thor, Sai, Miriallia."

Kira Yamato led everyone to the changing room in the Archangel's hangar.

He and Lacus Clyne changed into their space suits together.

Lacus Clyne unhesitatingly took off her skirt and changed into her space suit, giving Kira Yamato another eyeful.

Liza Kalman bared her teeth and stood in front of Kira Yamato, blocking his view.

She was so envious of Kira Yamato. This guy had too much luck with women, truly the protagonist of two SEED series.

However, Thor Klune marveled that he had captured the space suit Panzar scene. Next up was Athrun Zala's surprised expression at Lacus Clyne's bulging belly, hahaha.

But before Athrun Zala could be surprised, Sai Argyle outside was surprised first, then awkwardly said.

"Hahaha, why does she look like she's several months pregnant?"

Thor himself also sighed, "Yeah, that belly looks about 8 months along. It grew so fast."

Kira Yamato continued to lead some people to the hangar and took Lacus Clyne into the Strike Gundam.

Liza Kalman, standing nearby, wanted to return to her Reconnaissance Gear, but Thor Klune immediately stopped her.

That was his Gunpla, he couldn't just let someone else take it away.

"Hey Liza, sorry, but I broke this unit before and it's unusable. You'll have to squeeze in with Lacus."

Liza Kalman looked at the Reconnaissance Gear, which was riddled with bullet holes and missing its left leg, and said.

"You're the pilot of that Moebius, right? I'll remember you."

Then she proudly left and entered the Strike Gundam's cockpit, where the three of them were crammed together like a can of sardines.

Thor Klune cursed inwardly.

[How do you know I'm the pilot of that Moebius?]

[But damn it, I don't know if I should say this or not. You don't even know yourself, are you my secret spy?]

[And you say you'll remember me. I don't believe you. Believe it or not, I can make you lose your memory anytime.]

After boarding the Strike Gundam, Lacus Clyne smiled and thanked them.

"Thank you. I hope we can meet again next time."

Thor Klune and Sai Argyle replied simultaneously.

"Yeah, we'll definitely meet again," said Thor.

"That's hard to say," replied Sai.

The two exchanged a helpless glance, and Thor could only shake his head.

We'll definitely meet again someday. There's no escaping it.

Sai Argyle continued.

"Kira, you'll come back, right? You have to come back safely. Promise me."

Just then, Sergeant Madoc arrived at the hangar and saw Kira and the others, shouting.

"Hey, what are you guys doing?"

Kira Yamato smiled and replied, "I'll definitely come back. It's a promise."

Then he activated the catapult system, preparing to leave the Archangel's hangar.

The other maintenance crew members were woken by the sound of the catapult system activating and asked, "What's going on, Sergeant?"

On the Archangel's bridge, Mwu La Flaga received the signal of a mobile suit sortie and asked in confusion.

"What's wrong? What happened?"

Nataru Bagiruru opened the communicator and asked.

"Strike Gundam! What are you doing, Kira Yamato?"

Kira Yamato didn't answer. Instead, Mu La Flaga's voice came from the communicator.

"That kid is taking the young lady away.

It's no use, the gate has already opened."

Hearing the news that Kira Yamato was eloping with Lacus Clyne, everyone on the Archangel's bridge panicked.

Then, they saw the Strike Gundam leave the Archangel's hangar and fly out.

Soon, the Strike Gundam flew near the ZAFT Nacskha-class battleship and shouted through the communicator.

"This is the Earth Federation Army, Strike Gundam belonging to the Archangel.

We are returning your Lacus Clyne and Liza Kalman.

However, as a condition, the Nacskha-class battleship must stop its advance, and the pilot of the Aegis Gundam must come alone.

If this condition is broken, I cannot guarantee their safety."

On the Archangel's bridge, Nataru Bagiruru said angrily.

"Captain Mwu, Kira is disregarding military discipline and giving attack orders himself."

At this moment, Mu La Flaga in the hangar said through the communicator from the Moebius Zero.

"If this continues, we will be subjected to the Strike Gundam's artillery fire.

...Perhaps."

At this time, the radar operator reported.

"ZAFT Nacskha-class battleship heat source reaction, engine stopped. It has stopped.

Aegis Gundam is approaching."

In space, the Aegis Gundam arrived next to the Strike Gundam.
