While evading attacks, the GINN's Heavy Assault Machine Gun continuously fired, unleashing round after round from its barrel.
The bullets sprayed out in all directions.
Boom!
An explosion erupted.
A Vanguard Fighter was pierced through its fuselage and instantly exploded.
Bang!
A loud piercing sound rang out.
A Vanguard Fighter's left wing was hit, thick smoke billowing from the shattered wing as the aircraft uncontrollably plummeted downward.
Bang!
Another loud piercing sound echoed.
A Vanguard Fighter's right wing was struck, dense smoke pouring from the torn wing. Though the pilot struggled to maintain control, it was futile—the fighter descended uncontrollably toward the ground.
As the two fighters fell from altitude, their pilots knew recovery was impossible and without hesitation, they ejected.
The hatches blew open, and the ejection systems activated.
Both pilots were catapulted out, deploying parachutes to drift slowly toward the earth.
Just as they landed safely, an explosion sounded overhead.
The shattered fighters disintegrated into countless fragments raining down. Sharp, high-speed debris coincidentally sliced through both pilots' parachutes.
Gaping holes appeared in the parachutes.
"Ah!"
Terrified screams escaped their lips.
The damaged parachutes could no function, and their descent became uncontrollable. Under gravitational acceleration, their speed increased rapidly—drawing them closer to the ground, closer to death.
As they journeyed toward their demise, someone above them reached the end first.
Three Vanguard Fighters from different directions targeted the GINN piloted by Felix, unleashing a torrent of Machine Cannon fire.
In this situation, Felix remained calm and composed, maneuvering the GINN with minute precision to evade the attacks from all three sides.
The GINN raised its arm and fired at the forward Vanguard Fighter.
Rat-tat!!
Two gunshots rang out as bullets left the barrel.
One bullet served as a decoy, luring the fighter into evasive maneuvers, while the other—guided by Felix's precise calculations and predictions—intercepted its path, striking and obliterating the fighter's nose.
Boom!
A loud explosion resounded.
The Vanguard Fighter disintegrated mid-air.
After dispatching that one, the GINN turned to engage the other two fighters.
With a few simple maneuvers, Felix took them down one shot each.
Having accomplished this, Felix had no time to rest. His hands continued operating, firing at the Vanguard Fighters in the sky.
Bang!
A bullet struck a fighter's wing, thick smoke spewing from the damaged area as the aircraft spiraled uncontrollably toward the ground.
Bang!
Another shot struck a Vanguard Fighter, this time hitting the tail thruster nozzle. With its propulsion system destroyed, the fighter lost its powerful thrust and could no longer maintain flight.
Its altitude continuously dropped as it plummeted toward the ground.
Other GINNs, seeing the condition of these two fighters, did not hesitate to finish them off.
"Damn it!!"
The pilot snarled through gritted teeth, his face contorted in a desperate attempt to save himself, but it was already too late. The bullets struck the fighter with precision.
After the secondary attacks, the two damaged fighters disintegrated and exploded mid-air. Watching the explosions, the GINN pilots turned their focus to opening fire on the remaining Vanguard Fighters.
Meanwhile, on the ground...
The Earth Alliance Forces' ground troops weren't faring any better.
"Bastards! What are our air forces doing?! How could they let ZAFT Forces spare several MS units to attack us on the ground? How are we supposed to handle this?"
A tank commander, his face tense and twisted with stress, cursed vehemently. After his outburst, he directed the driver to maneuver the tank into a series of frantic evasions.
The gunner aimed at a GINN in the sky through the optical sensors.
"Damn it! Their aerial mobility is just too good; there's no way to get a lock!"
After several attempts and firing a few rounds, the gunner voiced his despair. Hearing this, the commander inside the tank responded calmly,
"The more chaotic it gets, the more we must keep our cool. Otherwise, what awaits us—"
Mid-sentence, a look of sheer terror flashed in the commander's eyes, the fear of death starkly visible.
BOOM!
Under his horrified gaze, a violent explosion tore through their tank. His unfinished words would have to wait for another world.
The GINN, engaged in a one-sided slaughter on the ground, moved on to target other tanks after destroying this one.
BOOM!
Another explosion echoed as one more tank was blown apart on the ground.
While ground tanks were being annihilated, Vanguard Fighters in the air met the same fate.
Felix, piloting his GINN, shot down a Vanguard Fighter. Out of the corner of his eye, he noticed the status of another fighter and swiftly manipulated the controls. The GINN raised its arm and fired.
Crack!
A round was discharged from the barrel.
Bang!
The bullet struck the Vanguard Fighter.
BOOM!
Shortly after being hit, the fighter erupted in a fierce explosion, a ball of fire blooming in the sky as the aircraft shattered into fragments raining down toward the earth.
"Always stay aware of your surroundings during combat. Don't fixate solely on your target."
After eliminating the threat for his subordinate, Felix reminded him over the comms. As he spoke, he maneuvered the GINN to evade an incoming attack and returned fire.
Bang!
The bullet pierced the head of the Vanguard Fighter!
The cockpit was torn apart, killing the pilot instantly, and the fighter exploded into pieces.
"Understood, Captain!"
A reply came through the comms.
Hearing this, Felix gave a soft grunt of acknowledgment. He controlled the GINN to reload, the spent magazine tossed forward by the mobile suit's other hand.
The magazine flew ahead.
A Vanguard Fighter pilot, seeing the magazine hurled toward him, maneuvered to dodge. Just as he completed the evasion, a bullet was already upon him.
By the time he thought to evade again, it was too late.
The bullet struck the fighter's nose with pinpoint accuracy.
Boom!
An explosion erupted, engulfing both the pilot and the aircraft in a blaze of fire. Amid the flames, fragments of the Vanguard Fighter rained down toward the ground like droplets.
Under Felix's control, GINN flew through the skies, evading incoming attacks as it closed in on another Vanguard Fighter. Drawing the Heavy Sword from its waist, GINN swung it down.
The blade cleaved through the fighter's nose, shattering it instantly and killing the pilot in the same moment.
The fighter spiraled uncontrollably toward the ground.
Retracting the sword, GINN raised its arm and fired.
A bullet shot from the barrel, homing in on yet another Vanguard Fighter.
Boom!
A distant explosion echoed through the air.
