Echoes

The year is 1943. Both the Germans and the Allies are racing to develop the A bomb. Enter a scientist working on the German project, an uncover agent for the allies and the team sent in to deal with the situation.

I love writing and reading epics ie multichaptered fics with action, drama, angst and relationships. Not that you would have noticed of course *grins. Of course I couldn't not annoy the Gundam boys in the same way. Hence this fun series. Originally the idea was to have one story, admit a long one but as the plot developed and grew over time I decided that several interlinked stories, some of which will be multichaptered was the way to go. Some of the stories will be 3x4 centric, some 1x2 and of course Wufei has his own story and relationships to deal with, but that would be telling.

Be warned there will be some character death in this series, and also some themes which some people might find disturbing. These were disturbing times remember,and this is going to be reflected in what happens.

A very big thanks to Sakura for help with the story synops, titles, and soundtracks.
