R Gundam

Nobile Suit R GUNDAM (機動戦士R[アール]ガンダムSEED); Kidō Senshi Āru Gandamu), also called R Gundam and "R Gundam SEED" was an unpublished short fanfiction created by MGW based on the series Mobile Suit Gundam SEED. It follows the events of the Cosmic Events as an original story, centering on ZAFT forces. The story is canceled and only notes about are it on left as MS Word documents. The title is from the original unit "Ranger Gundam".

Creation

Inspiration for R-gundam came from MGW researching on Japanese military fiction series Mobile Suit Gundam SEED out of curiosity. She has only seen the first episode and didn't have interest in completing it, which may have contributing to her lack of confidence in working on the story.

Story Events of SEED

Heliopolis Conflict (January 25, CE 71)

In the ZAFT military, Spike was mostly doing sentry work and protected November city, while as a Red Coat, Fletcher's popularity increased when he displayed excellent piloting skills at the Battle of Nova in CE 70. Commander Rau Le Creuset made Fletcher the leader of his own team (Team-Gadget) and he took part of the Heliopolis conflict, while ZAFT team inflitrated Morgenroete (#) to input the bombs.

After the invasion, the Le Creuset team pursued Earth Alliance ship Archangel, while Team Gadget returned to base with copied data of Blitz, Duel, Aegis and Buster. And also, Fletcher made it his responsibility to tell his brother and father about the "accident" of their mother perhaps becoming a "casualty".

Flustered at the thought of Heliopolis being destroyed, and the thought of his mother's possible death, Spike becomes so angry that he calls his brother a "Natural murderer" and questions him. Fletcher, who is calm and has a strong sense of duty and mostly tactless and condescending, angered his younger brother even more saying something along the lines that it was "an accident and being a battle casualty can't be helped". It had to take Fletcher's teammate Kai to calm Spike down.
