The Chosen Future

After defeating Shinn, Athrun heads back to the Archangel to support it against the Minerva. The combined efforts of Athrun and the Archangel severely damage the ship, causing it to crash onto the Moon. Neo-GENESIS' second shot also destroys several allied ZAFT ships, shocking the Minerva crew, as well as Yzak and Dearka.
