Chapter 302 A War Between Two People

The sea breeze was blowing, the waves were rolling, and the seagulls were crying, but the harmonious natural beauty was broken by a modern fighter.

Sitting in the cockpit, Cagalli woke up slowly from her coma.

"I... am still alive?"

After searching her body, she found no scars. Cagalli immediately tried to contact the Archangel, but not to mention the strong interference around her, all the skills of the Sky Overlord had stopped, and it was difficult to even start the power supply.

"This is Cagalli, Archangel, please reply... Archangel..."

Knowing that she could not ask for help from the Archangel, Cagalli did not complain desperately. She was a person who could not sit still. She stayed in the cockpit and prayed that her companions could find her. It would be better to leave and explore the island. Maybe she could find people and ask them to help her out of danger.

Who knew that the start was not good. Although Cagalli was a girl, she did not have the delicate mind of a girl. When she left the cockpit, a wave came and washed away the emergency backpack.

"Ah..." Watching the backpack drifting away, Cagalli couldn't come back to her senses for a long time. When she reacted, it was impossible to find it again. She could only curse "Damn it" inwardly, and swam towards the shore angrily, exploring the uninhabited island alone.

"This island is really small." It took Cagalli less than half an hour to pass through the woods and reach the other end of the island.

Looking at the coastline that appeared in front of her again, Cagalli was both grateful and depressed. Fortunately, the island was not big and could be explored quickly, and such a small uninhabited island generally did not have dangerous creatures; and the depressed thing was that it was estimated that there would be no one to help her on this island. After all, the island was so small. If there were other people on the island, the process of her crash could be seen, and she should have found others.

Who knew that Cagalli was looking around and saw the Aegis Gundam parked on the side, and Aslan carrying a backpack looking for a temporary camp.

"ZAFT soldier!" Without thinking carefully, Cagalli drew her gun and shot.

Aslan, a top student who graduated from the military academy and a rare elite, heard a slight "click" sound when he looked around. He was sure that it was the sound of the bolt being pulled.

He turned around suddenly and saw the dark muzzle pointed at him. It was too late to dodge.

"Bang~!"

The sound of gunfire echoed on the island, and countless birds were scared away.

Fortunately, Cagalli had never received professional training and her shooting skills were very poor. In addition, she fired in panic after being discovered, and the bullet only grazed Aslan's arm.

But Aslan did not dare to stay. He threw away the bag in his hand and hid behind the rocks beside him in three or two steps.

"Bang bang bang..."

"Don't move!"

After firing several shots, all of which missed, Cagalli slowly approached the position where Aslan was hiding. Both of them were very nervous.

"Earth Army soldier? Could it be the pilot of the fighter plane just now?" Seeing his gun and bag fall together, Aslan suppressed the tension in his heart, pulled out the dagger tied to his leg, and listened to the subtle footsteps slowly approaching him.

Perhaps because of inexperience or excessive tension, Cagalli came to the fallen pistol and kicked it away. As a result, Aslan moved at the moment of diverting his sight.

Aslan calculated the distance between the two and could not reach the other party before the other party turned his sight back, so he simply turned over and jumped to the other side of the rock.

Seeing this, Cagalli immediately fired, but without exception, all missed again. Aslan was nowhere to be seen after several turns. Cagalli did another stupid thing. She turned her sight away again, picked up the fallen pistol, and looked at it in a trance.

At this moment, Aslan, who was lurking behind the bunker, seized the opportunity, kicked the ground hard, swooped down, and kicked the pistol aimed at him away when Cagalli turned around.

Cagalli took two steps back, intending to aim another pistol at Aslan, but he grabbed her wrist, twisted and pushed her hard, and she flew out and fell to the ground. Before she could get up, Aslan rode on her, pressing her hands with his knees, grabbing her collar with one hand, and spewing the coldness of death with his sharp blade.

"Ah~!!!"

Seeing that she was going to die, Cagalli did not lose the ability to think like others, but instead let out a crisp but piercing scream, scaring away countless birds, and even the Holy Shield that was not activated at the side, was scared green.

After screaming, Cagalli, who closed her eyes and waited for death, did not wait for the pain and coldness of the dagger entering her body. She trembled her eyelids and turned her head to look at Aslan.

Aslan was also frightened by Cagalli's scream, but from her voice and the softness touched by his left hand, he no longer thought of killing Cagalli.

"Female?"

"Wu...wu...wu..." Cagalli glared at Aslan with tears in her eyes, "You...you guys, don't go too far!"

How should I put it...this villain complained first, very Cagalli.

"Huh?"

After questioning, Aslan was a little dumbfounded, what...is this? You are allowed to kill me, but I am not allowed to kill you?

Although he thought so, Aslan still put away the knife, but he was not stupid enough to think that Cagalli was no longer a threat. He tied Cagalli's hands behind her back and tied her ankles. He also disassembled Cagalli's pistol into parts and threw them all into the sea.

"Are you really a soldier of the Earth Army? I don't see you wearing a military badge." Aslan asked Cagalli while treating her wounds. While tying her up, he simply searched Cagalli's body and did not find the military badge that all soldiers have.

Cagalli remained silent. She was unwilling to communicate with the enemy and was determined to be a "dead person" and would never give the enemy any chance to get information, but the next second, she was broken.

"I have never heard that kind of scream on the battlefield." Aslan teased.

On the battlefield, screams must have appeared, but more of them were fear and despair of death, but Cagalli's scream... How to say it, if anyone else heard it, they would definitely suspect that Aslan was a wretched SP who was planning to do something bad to the young girl.

"Well... I'm really sorry." Cagalli also blushed for her own gaffe. She claimed to be someone who had participated in the battle, but who knew that in the face of the crisis of death, her true colors were exposed.

"You are the one who shot down our transport plane, right? I saw the plane on the beach opposite."

"You obviously shot me down!"

"...Which unit are you from? Why are you flying alone over there?" Aslan found out, and there was no way to reason with Cagalli, so he wisely chose to go straight to the point.

"I'm not a soldier, where do I come from? Who wants to come to such a ghost place...ah!"

Everyone knows a truth, when people make up their minds, there are only two results of compromise and exception: zero times and countless times. Look, Cagalli started to vomit everything.

Maybe her ugly appearance was seen, and the proud girl was not convinced. With her hands and feet tied, she struggled to stand up, but...

She was lying down, but now she was face down, squirming on the beach in an extremely shameful posture.

"Well." Aslan thought about it and felt that Cagalli was no longer a threat. Anyway, she was tied up like this, so he might as well leave her here, send a distress signal, and then find a temporary camp to decide how to deal with Cagalli.

"Are you... one of the members who attacked Heliopolis before?" Just as Aslan stood up and left, Cagalli stopped Aslan.

"Huh?" Aslan turned around and looked at Cagalli, frowning slightly. The collapse of Heliopolis had spread, but ordinary people didn't know the details, not to mention the confidential G plan.

Ordinary soldiers didn't know the details. How did Cagalli, who was not a soldier of the Earth Army, know?

"I was there at the time, in the Heliopolis you destroyed!"

For a moment, Aslan didn't know what to say. He felt guilty about the collapse of Heliopolis, but as a soldier, he had to follow orders.

Without defending himself, Aslan turned back to the Aegis Gundam, ignoring Cagalli's questioning and struggle. Now it was crucial to get in touch with friendly forces as soon as possible.

But what made Aslan helpless was that he tried all the channels but couldn't get in touch with the friendly forces. He didn't dare to use the public channel. Cagalli was also here. Although she said that she was not a soldier and had no troops, her body was indeed that of the Earth Army, which meant that there were probably Earth Army soldiers searching for her nearby. Once the Earth Army was attracted, he would be in real danger.

"Boom~"

The sky exploded with a thunder, and suddenly dark clouds covered the sky. Heavy rain poured down. Aslan had no choice but to send a distress signal beacon to the sea.

Thinking of the rain, Aslan couldn't ignore Cagalli. The cockpit was too small and couldn't accommodate two people. He had no choice but to get off the plane and find a temporary camp to shelter from the rain. But when he looked around, he saw a scene that made him speechless.

Cagalli was still very determined. She didn't give up when she was tired of struggling. Like a caterpillar, she struggled to crawl towards the direction of the Aegis Gundam. Unfortunately, the height of the Aegis Gundam and Cagalli was not low. She moved along the rocks little by little, but she was frightened by the sudden thunder and lost her balance. She fell again and fell into the water.

Cagalli struggled to get up, but the rope on her wrist got stuck in the crack of the stone again. She had no choice but to lie in the water, letting the rain pour, the sea water soak, and the waves beat.

Cagalli looked at the black sky with absent-minded eyes, and helplessness and frustration surged in her heart. She wondered... should she give up, or... was she really too willful?

At this moment, the cold touch of the raindrops and skin disappeared. When she came to her senses, a shadow enveloped her. The shield of the Aegis was horizontal in the air, shielding Cagalli from the rain.
