It has been nearly a year since the end of the war started by Mariemaia (Endless Waltz) and things on earth and within the colonies have become calm, again. A renewed peace talk has been excepted between Earth and the Space Colonies, and it appears that a new era is to be usered in thanks largely in part to the five Gundams. However, in an act of pure unselfishness and pacisifism, the five Gundams were destroyed by their very own pilots. A group called, the Preventers, has extended their pacisifist ways throughout the galaxy in a hope to prevent further violence and bloodshed.

A few terriorist groups, on Earth and within the colonies, have managed to crop up, but are quickly dispatched by the new Preventers. Life has become good under their guiding hand and the people of Earth and the Colonies are pleased and happy. Gundams and mobile suits in general are now things of the past. And they are, for the most part, taken apart and used as scrape metal. Guns and all other forms of weaponry are limited solely to the Preventers, and are monitored and banned elsewhere in an attempt to keep violence under control. Even Gundamiun itself is monitored,.. for fear of someone building another of these "Gundam mobile suits" and wreaking havoc on the peaceful people.

Yet, these methods of control are still new and not widely spread or enforced in the Colonies. Especially in places that have been abandoned. And it is here, in the places that the Preventers are not able to safely monitor that problems occur...

Alone in the darkness of space a small, seemingly empty laboritory floats within the terrioty of the L1 Colony. This lab was abandoned during the first Earth-Colony war when its scientist and mechanics were captured by Oz. However, a new scientist works diligently in the darkness,.. designing, building, storing plans for a new Gundam. A rogue scientist whose plans are secret and unknown to the Preventers, the Colonies, and to Earth...

Shortly after the Mariemaia war, rumors of a resource rich colony began spreading around the Space Colonies and eventually to Earth. No one knows the name or the location of this colony, but it is said to revival Earth in beauty, and riches…..

About twenty years before the war between Earth and the Space Colonies a group of engineers and scientists designed and built a large revolutionary space carrier. The ship was able to house 100,000 passengers and crew, plus all the equipment and supplies they would need to colonize a new world. Skeptics and even renowned scientists rejected the ship for one reason, its new fusion power plant. It was deemed unstable at best. The micro plant, which occupied less than 1% of the entire ship would produce, with out refueling, twice the power the ship needed.

The plan of the scientists, engineers, and colonists was to make a home one Mars. They left quietly in the night, never to be heard from again. The short up roar was so brief that all information on the expedition, the ship, or otherwise became non-existent with in a year.

The massive energy stores of the MC Explorer allowed the ship to reach her destination in a few weeks. The colonists landed with few problems and began building. What exists on Mars today is a massive megalopolis dome city know as Freeport, the out lying colonies are know as “waster towns” or waste land towns and villages, lower tech areas.

Another secret was hidden on board the Explorer, the technology to create and maintain atmosphere. The MC atmospheric systems are similar in design to the systems on the space colonies but much more massive. The original colonists were successful in creating a stable and breathable atmosphere on Mars, but were unable to control climate conditions. The result being, Freeport, the great domed city.

The people of Mars have long ago lost interest and contact with Earth and the Colonies. Only recently have they sent out spies to the Colonies and Earth. The footage of the recent war has been taken as a threat to Mars. Massive production of two space-type mobile suits has been started by the Mars Colony Military. First the “Artemis”, its a fast mobile suit designed for hit n’ run and raiding missions, it runs on a MC Micro Fusion Plant. The Artemis is armed with 6 hunter seeker missiles and beam rifle. Second, the “Apollo”, its a more standard, heavily armed military unit, also running on the MCMFP. The Apollo is armed with a combination auto cannon (PPC) and starburst cannon. Both suits have combination ceramic, titanium alloy armor making them lighter and faster than the mobile suits used by the Preventers.

The massive power of the Gundams has not escaped the eye of the MC government. The military has contracted out to the Freeport Corporation to build them a Gundam Mobile Suit.

The Mars Colony doesn’t want war, but it can’t ignore the habits of Earth and the Colonies. Mars is prepared, with a fleet of fusion drive ships and advanced mobile suits, to deal with anything that comes their way.

On Earth and the Colonies small terrorist groups with similar ideologies are massing weapons and troops. These once small groups are becoming a froce the Preventers are going to have to deal with.

On Mars protestors hold almost daily rallies around government buildings. They call for immediate action, deployment of the Mars Mobile Army. The Mars Mobile army has been estimated large enough to over run Earth and the Colonies with in weeks. Terrorist factions on Mars are building up their supplies and soilders.

There are three kettles on the stove, and all three are ready to boil over into a bloody conflict that will over shadow even the Mariemaia War, and the war between Earth and the Colonies.
