Yes, FlareMan does fanfiction. XD

Actually, this is my first attempt at it. And I figured if I was gonna write, I might as well write about something I like. I\'m a big fan of the G-Gundam show, so I decided to do a fanfic about what happens afterward. This story revolves around my character, Jason Hawking, and his dream of participating in the Gundam Fight to win the coveted championship title. I\'ll be posting a characters list right after this post, so please wait a bit.

Oh, and try to keep criticism to a minimum. I know very well this isn\'t absolute perfection and I don\'t need to be reminded about it. T_T

~~~~~CHARACTERS PAGE~~~~~
Here is a list that I will update regularly as new characters are introduced in my fanfic.

~Jason Hawking~
The main character in G-Gundam: New Generation, Jason Hawking pilots the awesome Blazing Gundam as representative fighter of Neo-America. Since he was a boy, he has dreamed of competing in the Gundam Fight tournament and winning the championship title. But little does he realize that he\'s about to get caught up in a lot more than a simple fighting tournament...
Blazing Gundam is mostly a melee-combat unit, to mimic the powerful close-quarters fighting style Jason has developed, but it comes equiped with many special techniques, and a large, powerful two-handed heat blade which can cleave through stone easily.

~~~~~EPISODE-1~~~~~

It\'s been 16 years after the 13th Gundam Fight. After the incident involving the Dark Colony, the next Gundam Fight was cancelled until everything could be straightened out, meaning that this year was officially the 16th Gundam Fight.

The Gundam Fight... for those who aren\'t \"In the know\", so to speak... this was a massive tournament held between nations every four years as a means to decide which nation will be given leeway to govern over the rest as acting leader. A sort of action-packed presidential election. Each colony was to be represented by a Gundam, piloted by only the best man or woman they had to offer who was thus called the \"Gundam Fighter\".

Now, the Gundam Fight takes place in four phases. The first phase signals the departures of each Gundam from their respective colonies and into Earth\'s atmosphere. The second phase is the actual arrival, and any Gundam who does not make it within the atmosphere before the end of Phase-2 is officially disqualified. Phase-3 is where the fighting begins, and is nicknamed \"The Survival Eleven\". During an eleven-month period, each Gundam Fighter travels around the globe seeking out other fighters and engaging in one-on-one matches to weed out the competition. Everyone left over after that will be qualified to enter the finals, which is Phase-4. During the finals, all Gundam Fighters who are still in the tournament need to make their way towards the tournament grounds which are usually located in the area on earth relative to the last Gundam Fight\'s winning colony nation. (Example: If a Neo-Japanese fighter won, then the tournament grounds would be located in Japan on earth.)

The rules of the Gundam Fight are displayed as 7 articles which all Gundam Fighters must memorize by heart. They read as follows.

Article-1: A unit whose head section has been destroyed is disqualified.

Article-2: A Gundam Fighter must never aim at the cockpit of an opponent\'s Gundam.

Article-3: A Gundam Fighter may repair damage to his Gundam as often as he desires and move on to the championship league, as long as the head section has not been destroyed.

Article-4: A Gundam Fighter must take responsibility for protecting his own Gundam.

...

\"Article Five... A match shall only be held on a one-on-one basis...\"

A young man stood in the cockpit of his Gundam. A body-fitting suit of red and yellow colors wrapped around his body from the neck down. His hair was black and was styled so that it leaned forward a bit, before flaring immediately backwards, creating a sort of sideways V curve off the top of his forehead. He had his eyes closed as he spoke to himself, a team of expertly trained scientists were outside in the hangar monitoring his uplink with the Gundam which he piloted... Blazing Gundam.

\"Okay, move your right arm.\" One called out over the loudspeaker.

\"Article Six...\" Jason repeated to himself, looking down and slowly lifting his Right-Arm. The Blazing Gundam matched his movements perfectly, lifting it\'s own right arm and clenching it\'s fingers into a fist, just as Jason did.

\"A Gundam Fighter must never dishonor the nation he or she represents.\" He finished.

The scientists up in the rafters nodded to each other. After a few minutes they called to him.

\"Allright! 3:00! We\'re done for today.\"

\"HOLY SH-\" Jason burst out of the cockpit, struggling to get into his pants with the Gundam Fighter uniform still wrapped over his body. He snatched up a half-eaten sandwich he had left on the railing as he passed by and held it in his mouth as he rushed out of the building.

A few minutes later he stood outside, rushing down the steps along the side of the building. He was in a hurry to get home for his classes. Taking part in a big tournament and putting your own life on the line was apparently no excuse to miss class. He rushed home along a wide, grassy field which seemed to stretch for miles. He stopped in the middle and looked up. Though it looked like everything was bright and sunny, you could see space clearly. And up in the sky at that moment... you could see the Earth.

Jason took a deep breath. \"Article Seven.\"

He paused for a moment.

\"... Earth is the ring.\"

((Okay, so here is the first \"episode\" of my fanfic. Basically, I wanted to introduce everyone to the world of G-Gundam before I started, so I put in an explanation of the Gundam Fight and it\'s rules. We\'ll see more of the Blazing Gundam soon. Don\'t you worry. 8D))

Sorry for the late update! I\'ve kinda been in a stupor for a bit, but I\'m slowly pulling out of it. Here\'s Episode-2.

~~~~~Episode-2~~~~~

A loud, repetitive bell rang through the air. A group of students sat chattering amongst themselves in a small classroom. Some had gotten out of their seats to gather around a particular student\'s desk.

\"So what was it like!?\" One asked the student.

There were several more questions... like how the Gundam got assigned to him, or what the suit felt like. The student under question was Jason Hawking, Neo-America\'s chosen Gundam Fighter. He would have been the youngest, too, at the age of 18, if Sai Saichi hadn\'t been in the 13th Gundam Fight several years ago under Neo-China. The Gundam Fighter finally spoke up, hand rubbing the back of his head.

\"Well, heheh. It was pretty cool... I didn\'t get to see the Gundam because they had it mostly covered, but I guess the cockpit looked pretty awesome from the inside.\"

Gasps and more chattering filled the room. The classroom is the source of any and all rumors, Jason hoped there wouldn\'t be any about him.

\"Everybody SIT DOWN!!!\"

Several sharp taps filled the air. The teacher had arrived and was standing behind her desk at the front of the class. She had blonde wavy hair that went down to her waist, and a figure that pretty much screamed \"eye candy\". Unfortunately, she was a major dictator and all-around oppressor of the common classroom peoples. But it was bearable, at least for the guys, to see her bend over every now and then for the occasional dropped pencil.

\"Sir Hawking!\" She called out at the top of her lungs.

She had an eagle\'s eye like that. If you were goofing off, she\'d snatch you up and bite off your head like some efficient predator of the skies. Jason pulled his shoulders up near his head. One student made a cutthroat signal at him.

\"Normally, I would punish you for disrupting the class like this, but seeing as you\'ll be representing our nation in the Gundam Fight, I\'ll see fit to excuse you for now.\"

She walked up to his desk tapping the ruler against her open palm.

\"I hope you realize you have the entire nation\'s honor on your shoulders... You\'d better not disgrace us in front of the entire world, Mr. Hawking...\" She had an evil glare... one that foretold of coming doom.

Jason swallowed the tension that was building up in his throat.

\"N... no ma\'am!\" He uttered.

\"Good.\"

She made her way back to the front of the class, and the lessons for the day began.

...

A few minutes later found Jason sitting at his desk during recess. He was looking over the specs of his Gundam over a laptop in a data disk that had been given to him to keep. Blazing Gundam\'s image was displayed on the screen, slowly turning in place. Like most Gundams, it was mostly white in color, save for a completely red Torso unit. There were also assorted gray and yellow parts across it\'s body, but it seemed to have a definite theme about it. The box-like shoulder guards each had three claws which dropped down from the sides, two more along the outer edge of each arm going toward the wrist from the elbow, and two smaller ones curving downward over the knee. He could click on parts of the body to see what all systems were active there, and check out a list of the special moves he had developed with it. He already had one in mind that drew from the Gundam\'s ability to control fire...

\"There! My specialty move... the Bursting Magnum Flare!\" He exclaimed triumphantly to himself.
