Meanwhile in the northern forestry of Nova Scotia, fourteen destroyed Zeon Mobile Suits litter the natural lands as one surviving Gyan keeps its sword raised defensively against the damaged Gundam staring at it.

>Dell: (I just have to hold out a little longer...)
>Zero: Your either scared out of your mind or as dumb as they come, Spacenoid. Of all the ways you could try to defend yourself, you want to try taking me on with a sword? After what I did to your "friends" here?

Lifting the sword further into a defensive position, Dell waits to be stuck down by the monstrous power of the Gundam in the hands of "Zero Murasame."

>Zero: Do yourself a favor, why don't you? Tell whoever comes here to investigate everything you saw today. What you just saw was just a demonstration.
>Dell: Y-your...letting me go?
>Zero: For now. Maybe you can run back to your home colony and can hide in it for the rest of your life. Maybe you'll get encouraged to try coming at me with some stronger allies next time. Either way, you'll send the message I want. If we do meet again, just know the Gundam is nowhere near complete. Soon, he will give me its true power.

Even with the captured Gundam in his possession barely holding together from its reentry crash, Zero leaves the battleground without any additional damage from his engagement with Zeon's forces.

>Zero: (Its the final piece he was missing all this time! With a Gundam, we are finally going to do it! Everyone responsible for turning us into these...mistakes will pay!)

Arriving at the scene of Zeon's heavy losses, Ramba Ral's armed forces are told of being ambushed by the damaged Gundam being piloted by an unidentified individual.

>Clamp: General, we have a situation. Scouts just took these images off the coast. A whole town and everything around it was nearly wiped off the Earth...
>Ramba: There wasn't even any bases or stationed troops there. Why would the Federation attack there?
