Episode 7
Athrun sees Lunamaria, Meyrin and Rey practicing their markmanship. Lunamaria doesn't do well and
squints as she sees Rey doing better. Then Luna notices Athrun behind her.
Lunamaria: "Ah!"
Athrun: "Regulation training?"
Lunamaria: "Yes, at any rate they said it's more pleasant outside. But I'm not doing too well."
Rey looks away from them and starts to practice again.
Lunamaria: "Want to try it out with us?"
Athrun: "Uh? Ah, no, I.."
Lunamaria takes of the protection glasses: "The truth is, we all know quite a bit about you. A former ZAFT red-coat.. Klueze's squad... Midway through the war, the one who took out Strike, the strongest of then all..."
Rey shoots again.
Lunamaria: "Afterwards assigned to a special-task squadron that reported directly to the Defense Committee. ZGMF-X09A, Justice's pilot Athrun Zala, right? I don't know about his father, but that person is a hero to us. Including the affairs in the battle of Jachin Due."
Athrun: "Ah, no.."
Lunamaria walks towards him: "I've also heard that he's a pretty good shot."
Rey fires some shots again and Shinn walks through the hall to get to the shooting range. He sees Athrun.
Lunamaria: "Mind showing us an example? The truth is, I'm not very good."
Athrun smiles and takes her gun and Shinn walks in. What happens next is that Athrun practically owns them all, including Rey, by hitting moving targets perfectly.
Lunamaria: "You're shooting with the same gun.. How come?"
Athrun: "It's not the gun's fault. You tend to twist your wrist at the moment you pull the trigger, so your shots are scattered."
Cagalli watches from above: "Athrun."
Athrun: "Though I may have a talent for this sort of thing, it doesn't do me much good."
he walks away.
Lunamaria: "That's not true! It's needed to defend yourself and your comrades from the enemy."
Athrun glares back. "The enemy... Who's that?"
