Part 3: The Black Mobile Suit
Chapter 2: The Black Mobile Suit
![](1-MS02-01.jpg)
So here we are on the game's world map. The cave with the blue crystal is the G-System we just left.
![](2-MS02-02.jpg)
Here's our full map. As you can see, we're smack dab in the middle of Spain right now. The blob on the lower right is what I assume Antarctica looks like after all those years of global warming.

We head north a bit and reach Marie's house fairly quickly.

Fritz... what is that supposed to even mean? She sent us to get these in the first place...

So here we are at Marie's house... workshop... lab... thing. She happens to have a convenient Mobile Suit platform, on which Cheeto parks his suit.

On an unrelated note, if I had a Mobile Suit I could spend all day just riding that elevator cord thing up and down.

Because this seems to scare Fritz so much, I run around the yard collecting treasure before I actually enter Marie's lab. I don't find anything spectacular, just a Regeneration Kit (this game's version of a revive) and some other minor things.

She doesn't seem so mad... She actually seems quite nice...

Now, despite all the help Marie's given us, we'll later find out through hundreds of random battles that she's a damn, dirty liar. I think I'll give her the benefit of the doubt and assume her radar is really crappy.

Or hell, maybe these G Systems are producing units impossibly fast. I'm not sure how many suits these things would have to pump out per hour, and frankly, I don't even want to think about doing the math.

Don't mind if I do! Resting here or at an inn restores our pilots' Technique Points, which we use for special skills like curing, buffs, and attack spells.
![](14-MS02-14.jpg)
And away we go!

Or not...

I would love to show you guys some action, but I honestly didn't run into any random battles at all between Marie's house and the orphanage. Hell, you know what? You've all been so good, I'm gonna throw you guys a freebie.

Aah, I feel better. Don't you? Back to the story.

Um, wow, Cheeto. Usually the term "brings back memories" is reserved for good memories.
![](18-MS02-18.jpg)
Oh, here we go. She's Miss Natalie. The nice lady who owned Cheeto's orphanage.

Aw...

![](21-MS02-21.jpg)
Somehow Cheeto manages to step into the sunlight for seemingly the first time ever without bursting into flames or going instantly blind.
![](22-MS02-22.jpg)
And I'm not so sure why he just starts running for some--
![](23-MS02-23.jpg)
HOLY CRAP, MISSILES! RUN CHEETO RUN!
![](24-MS02-24.jpg)
The missiles hit the orphanage and the resulting explosion shock wave hurls Cheeto to the ground. When he turns around to see what happened...
![](25-MS02-25.jpg)
![](emot-gonk.gif)
![](26-MS02-26.jpg)
A giant black robot appears from the forest and--
![](27-MS02-27.jpg)
JESUS CHRIST!
![](28-MS02-28.jpg)
![](29-MS02-29.jpg)
"Oh, uh... Thanks for sparing me, giant robot that just leveled the only place I've ever been able to call home."
![](30-MS02-30.jpg)
I can't believe it myself, Cheeto...
![](31-MS02-31.jpg)
Cheeto runs towards the burning orphanage only to be thrown back by another explosion. What the hell was in that building? I wanna say... meth lab.
