WAR IN THE POCKET

The sky you see above is far away...

...but it holds more dreams than you can carry.

Yes, I want to break out of this man-made world and become free.

And because I believe...

...that you can become the wind...

...if you keep running and reach the sky.

I'll never give up forever.

What is Reflected in His Brown Eyes

Umm...were you in this ?

You were in this, weren't you ?

You got shot down, didn't you...?

That handgun is real, isn't it ? Would it be okay if I touched it ?

No, it's not !

Just a little bit ?

Hey !

I end up here and have to put up with some little shit...

Man, you look peaceful. Isn't there a military on this colony ?

This's the first time I've seen a battle. And real mobile suits, too.

GM's, too ?

It doesn't matter how long you wait, I'm not gonna let you touch it.

Cheapskate !

Hey !

Here.

You're gonna let me touch it ? All right !

Now, let's see what you have here.

What's this ? Oh, it's me.

Give it back !

Oh geez, here I am again.

I can take it, you know ?

Oh, she's cute. Is this your sister ?

I said, ``Give it back !''

W...what's this ?

It doesn't look like an ordinary crate.

~~~~Give it back ! Give it ~~~~back ! Give it back !

Hey, hold on ! Just calm down.

You !

You little...

Ouch !

Man, that hurt...

You son of a...

Want this ?

How's about I trade you this for that ?

What ?~~Really ?

Yeah.

No tricks.

I swear.

Here.

Wow !

Alfred !

Catch !

You don't want it ?

This is all I want.

This is a secret, okay ?

Okay.

Later !

Cool !

So cool !

All right, all right !

Give me a hand !

Over here, too.

It was so sudden... What can you do ?

Al !

Where the heck were you ?

Just around. Is the teacher mad ?

Morning classes were cancelled.

Lucky !

Really ?

Didn't you see it ?

Hey, look at her now.

Look at her face.

Hey, what was that about the Federation not having mobile suits ?~~Idiot !

Classes are cancelled !

All right !

Corporal Alfred ready for launch, sir.

There's no doubt. It's what they launched from the arctic base.

Where did you get this video ?

One of our pilots obtained it during the battle with the Federation on Side 6.

Luck seems to have made up for your incompetence.

If I remember correctly, it was you, sir, who decided that base...

...was a research facility and sent in only one unit for the operation.

Are you saying that we should have followed your advice ?

The reason that mission failed is...

The Federation is starting to sweat. This was a big break for them.

They went to ridiculous lengths to keep us from this thing by camouflaging that shuttle.

Excuse me.

To change this war's course, we must capture or destroy that thing at all costs.

The Newtype Gundam, sir ?

I'd like to hear your ideas this time.

I've authorized your request for a replacement soldier.

As you requested, he's an excellent pilot. Train him well.

What can you do, man ? You lost a Zaku your first time out. You're in for it.

Knock it off !

They're probably gonna send you to Solomon. You won't last long.

Shut the hell up !

Don't go in there with that expression on your face.

It won't look good.

Piss off !

15 hours 30 minutes. Okay.

Corporal Bernard Wisemen entering, sir !

Excuse me.

What's the matter ? Sit down, Corporal Wisemen.

Yes, sir.

Well, we'll start the mission briefing.

Mission, sir ?

Excuse me, sir. What mission ?

Special Forces ?

You were transferred to our unit today.

To my right is Mikhail. That's Garcia. I'm the captain.

Understand ?

I guess.

You guess ?!

You're not very decisive, are you ?

Indecisive people die quickly, you know.

We're taking part in an operation on the colony you attacked yesterday.

Your assignment is to fly in one of our ships disguised as a civilian craft.

The cargo will be a mobile suit. The rest of us will have entered...

...the colony beforehand and we'll accept the cargo disguised as civilians.

All you have to do is fly through the battle zone and land the craft. Questions ?

Well, ah, um...Oh yes, won't I be shot by friendly fire...

...if I'm piloting what looks like a civilian ship ?

I don't need morons who get shot by friendly fire in this unit.

Any other questions ?

No.

The operation is codenamed Rubicon. It commences at 2300 hours.

That's all.

Alfred Izuruha.

Yes.

You know why you've been called, don't you ?

Your scores on the standardized tests weren't very good.

Math D+~~~~~~English C- Science C-~~~~~Social Studies D-.

Look at me when I'm talking to you.

If these type of grades keep up...

...we're going to have to schedule a meeting with your counselor or your mother.

Which is it going to be ? Your counselor ? Your mother ?

Here he is. Here he is. Hey, Al, you still alive ?

You okay ? What'd the witch say ?

It's bad. She threatened to tell my parents about my test grades.

Really ?

If my parents get called in, I'll be grounded for a month.

Are your parents that strict ?

Yep, they sure are.

Come on, cheer up.

You're looking down...

Really ?

Is someone picking on you ?

No, it's nothing.

Well, okay. Don't you get your test scores back pretty soon ?

She's sharp...

Hey you !

I'm sorry !

What're you doing out at this hour ?

My friends and I are going on a dare. Don't tell my mom, okay ?

Oh, a covert operation, eh ?

Please !

Okay, I promise.

Oh, hey ! Will you take me with you next time ?

Actually...

This is a secret.

...girls aren't allowed. Well, bye.

``No girls...?''

Looks like they've stripped the weapons.

Oh, geez ! Shit ! What the...!

It's still alive !

Hey, watch it there.

What's that ?

A corpse. Okay, let's go.

Hi. Neither of us seems to be doing so well.

What the hell ?!

Special Forces ship, launch when ready.

Roger.

20 minutes to operation commencement.

Release Minovsky particles.

Send the Special Forces ship forward.

Special Forces ship, head for Side 6.

Roger.

5 minutes to operation commencement.

Launch mobile suits.

Launch mobile suits.

Here they come.

It's started.

Here I go.

Hang in there, you piece of shit.

Cargo ship Agamelde, requesting permission to land !

Cargo ship Agamelde, requesting permission to land !

This is cargo ship Agamelde !~~Respond ! Request permission to land !

All right !

A battle. There's a battle outside the colony.

Oh man, it's awful out there. My partner bit it, could you get him out ?

Passport and entry visa.

You know, I wish you guys would get it together.

It hurts business when there're mobile suit battles in colony space.

Name and ID number.

Balutara Peterzen. ID number PG40983726.

Declaration of contents and cargo invoice.

Hey, be careful with him, will ya ?~~He's not a doll !

Addressee's credentials.

Huh ? Those are all the documents I have.

If you don't have the documents, I'm going to have to inspect the cargo.

But...

Is there something in there you don't want me to see ?

Oh no, not really, but...uh what, all this because of one document ?

I'm not doing this for my health, you know ! The documents are your responsibility !

This is deck B-423. I need an inspection team.

Oh good, we made it. All right, bring it out.

Okay.

Hey ! We haven't inspected yet ! Don't touch anything !

I'm sorry for the trouble.

I'm a representative of the addressee. Here are our credentials.

Looks like it's in order. This is supposed to be submitted from the shipper.

That's uh...construction equipment we ordered...

...and unless we bring it in today, we have to pay a late penalty.

Well, if that happens, our company will go under.

I couldn't make it up to my superiors if that happened.

Please, we don't have the time.

Oh, all right.

R...really ? Thank you so much !

We're backlogged because of the war.

From now on, get your documents in order, all right ?

Oh man, I fell asleep ! If Mom finds out, I'm dead !

Man, that scared me.

You idiot ! Are you trying to kill yourself, you little shit ?!

They came. Zion came to this colony.

They came back for me !

That night when I lied...

...I was scared and couldn't sleep.

No matter what kind of fights we had...

...I always forgot it the very next day.

The blue of the sky...

...always made me happy...

...back when I used to believe in everything.

Not realizing that someday...

...I would lose faith in others...

...and know how lonely life could be.

I promise. I won't tell anyone.

Are you crazy ?

It's not like I fight or anything.
