This isn't really a story from the game but it was taken in Final frontier mod and it also inspired me :) I'll add more chapters as we go through.

Introduction:

The year was 3150. Mankind has secured its position and its survival in the final frontier. Planet after planet was colonized, star after star and galaxy after galaxy but mankind will now face its destiny. Although man has advance technology, the chances of meeting other life forms was 0.1% to none but still, scientists believe there's someting out there, lurking in the unknown.

Chapter 1: The Feud

Maria, a long time bar worker and a native in earth, met Hans, a Mars-born man. Maria looked down on the likes of him. Natives in earth never respected other-planet-born people so she said "What do . .. .. .. .ing colonizers are here? I though you all left earth for a better life, and now, you're here? Good for you that mother earth still forgives people that left her." " So, like you're understimating us huh? FYI Einstein, colonist have higher IQ than you idiots born on earth." Hans irritatedly replied."Oh yeah? You fools are the cause why earth had sunken low on its economy. You know why? Because-!?" Maria suddenly stopped in her debut.

"What's happening here?" the bar manager asked. "Maria, shut up and just serve our customer! You want that to be deducted in your pay?" her manager added. "No sir." Maria replied.

Like many colonizers, Hans was disrespected on earth. Even people who eats once a day still thinks that they're higher in status than the colonists. From that time immemorial, namely when the time man had colonized Mars, started a very long feud over the two races.

A month after their first meet at the bar

(Scene at the airport)

"Flight ULK 901 to Lunar base 1 is now boarding. Passengers get to gate 1-06 for pre-flight boarding announcements." When she heard this, she rushed to the gate where she will board the plane. On her way, she was almost bumped by an airport cart driven by Carl, a hotel manager in the moon. "Hey you! Wanna ride?" Carl said. "Sure but I need you to hurry to gate 1-06, my flight is now boarding." she then added. "Well, we ride the same plane." He concluded.

They got to the gate and boarded it. "Ma'am, may I ask what's your seat number?" the stewardess said. "105C" she replied. "Right this way." the stewardess added. Unknown to her, she will be seating with Hans.

"What the?!" Maria seems startled. She saw Hans approaching her seat but she figured: maybe it's just coincidence. He sits there and I sit here, end. The stewardess directed Hans to seat 105B. Now she was really mad. "You again?!" Maria and Hans simultaneously exclaimed. "Stewardess! I demand, as a native, to change the seat of this man, if he IS!" she shouted. "But ma'am, all the seats are full." the stewardess added.

They sat there, no comment nor quarrels, glancing at each other. Like any other enemies, they temporarily agreed into a ceasefire of words for the rest of the flight.

"WOW!" she said. "The universe is amazing!" she added. "What? It's like you've never go to space, don't tell me that." he added. "I hadn't go to space since my grandfather died." she sobs.

I NEED FEEDBACK FROM READERS! Comments? post it here!!!!!!!!!!
 
"Sorry Maria, didn't know your grandpa died........" he added. "That's okay, I understand you." she replied with care.

Their almost *love* affair:blush: was disturbed by an announcement.

"This is Captain Johnson speaking, we suggest that you put up your suits now be-cause-!? We're about to collide with space debris!!!!!". "Here Maria, take mine, I don't need it." he caringly said. "But what about?!" she was interrupted. "I'm ready for this, you know....... and besides, there's one thing that I'm about to tell you......... I want to tell you that I love you since the first time we met." he added.

Suddenly, time slowed down when the two put on their suits. It has been a month since their first quarrel at the bar. She was a little bit blushy and shy though. After an hour of anticipated debris, they saw the brighter picture......

Captain Johnson saw an abandoned shuttle. "I know this! This was shuttle Destiny that never came back. What I don't know is what happened to it.". We should report this back to earth.

The Alliance blamed this atriocity to the colonists. The native investigators traced the combustion to a mobile suit owned by a colonist. " This is impossible! My comrades don't do anything as bad as that! he madly replied.

They reached the moon. Never again Hans and Maria's path will cross again.:(
 
Oh man. You should edit the part of them never seeing eachother agian. they should meet at the end. GREAT STORY
 
As a member of a voluntary army of the colonists, they prepared to investigate what happened to Destiny. As peace talks fail between the two races, their armies now prepare for the next war, or should historians say: World War 4. New technologies was discovered by the races. Although the natives are way too advance, they lack manpower. Meanwhile, people originally natives migrate to the colonies to find better lives and opportunities for them to grab.

"We cannot tolerate this much longer! Something must be done......" Major Weltor, a veteran in the rebellious wars, said. "How about we sabotage Brutus 11? That will give us an edge. Most of the natives' armies are there. If we sabotage that and program it to collision, we can-!" Hans was interrupted by another soldier saying "Collision to where?". He replied "To earth......"

Meanwhile at earth........

"We lack the manpower to run these machines! What are we gonna do?" Major Falcon, a wise old man, siad. "How about we mind control people even if civilians? Sure, we're fighting for our very existence." Carl said. "But that machine is still a prototype!" the major added. "Sir, do or die?" he said. "We'll have to do......." the major replied and added "Is the weapon ready?". "Yes sir! We're online now!" the coordinator replied. "Good...." the major said, with a grin.

to be continued..........................................................
 
"Ready the prototype!" the major added, "And also, call the manufacturers on earth. Tell them to profuce as many mobile suits as they can and we'll pay them handsomly, of coarse.". "Yes sir!", one of the soldiers replied. A few minutes later........... "Sir! The manufacturers agreed at the proposal that you'd gave them and they also said that to hurry their production, we must double the pay." the soldier said. "Then we will! We're rich remember? All of the trades come here from earth." the major replied.

Meanwhile at the colonist's base........

"Okay, Hans, go along with me. We'll disguise as cleaners in their bathrooms. They'll never know what hit them. Hans! Ready the computer. Remember that after we set the coarse, we'll screw up their computers for good." Weltor said. "Yes sir but how are we gonna get there?" Hans replied. "As repeated, we'll disguise as cleaners that came from earth, clear?" the major irritatably added.

As the plan was executed by the colonists, so as the natives.

"Control the people at section B-69 or in short, the city of Seattle. Anyone, even children! If we're about to survive this war, then have no pity!" the major said uncaringly. Unknown to Hans, that planning a sabotage mission, the city of Seattle was the hometown of Maria, which has recently returned home to celebrate her grandmother's birthday. The hour has come, exactly 2 PM, people was controlled by the device including Maria. The major change the recently added "army" names' individually. Maria has ceased to exist. Her name was changed to Lt. Riza and that's her known name from now on. People after people was armed even children. They didn't undergo any training because they was "programmed" to do so. Even children 5 years of age knows how to fix a mobile suit.

"Brutus 11, do you copy! We're stationing some more troops in that station to defend it." the major contacted the base. "Yes sir............ Wha-?! We're going to collide with earth, sound the alarms!" the radioman said. "Evacuate the civilians! Man your stations! Earth, do you copy! Somebody sabotage the base and-! Ahhhhhh!!...................... (static)" the last words of the radioman has been transmitted. "Call the earth-wide telecommunications services Inc. Tell them to call every people on earth to be at the bunkers!" the major said and added, "Brutus 11 was lost.............."
