The Archangel was able to stop the attack from ZAFT ship Vesalius by using Lacus Clyne as hostage, but the shock was most detrimental, witnessing an entire fleet destroyed before the crew’s eyes.
But aboard that ship are people
I wanna protect.
.لكن على متن تلك السفينة أشخاص أريد حمايتهم
Aber an Bord dieses Schiffs sind
Menschen, die ich beschützen will.
Mas aquela nave tem pessoas
 que eu quero proteger.
