Heyas all! Yes…another fic from me! ^_^ I know it's bad but hey! You wouldn't be here if you didn't want to read it! *grins* Just to tell everyone, this is not a shameless self insertion fic! I seriously hate them intensely and would never ever write them. But it's called "The One They Called Angel" for a good reason but not for the damn shameless reason of putting myself in the fic and becoming this all-time mighty and great assassin that's friends with Relena and stuff like that. Good thing there are really good ones of those out there but still, there are ones where the authoresses insert themselves into the fic and they become this Mary-Sue…^_^;; Doesn't that bother a few a bit? I'm not going against any authoresses! Don't get me wrong! But it's just that there are way too many self-insertions for our own good…And definitely too many Mary-Sue fics…*grins* I may write some fics that have it…but I really didn't intend it to. As you all know, most of my fics will concentrate on Relena since number one, she doesn't get enough recognition in the story, and number two, she's a pretty cool person to write fics about! ^_^ This is also an AU story so things won't be following the Gundam Wing storyline! Sorry, I had to put it in red so it didn't get lost in all that ranting I did…^^;; Anyways, I hope you enjoy this story!
Gundam Wing- The One They Called Angel
Prologue
By Angel
Disclaimer: No, I do not own Gundam Wing because if I did, there'd definitely be more episodes, movies, merchandise and nothing would've been done to the original series before it came to America. ^_^ And besides…if I did own them, I'd spend most of my time paying people to write fics for me! *grins* Just kidding! Anyways…last note, not a self insertion…I just can't even think about writing those…^^;; Like I said…at least there are some really good ones out there! Onwards with the story!
Relena strolled down the busy and cold streets. It was three weeks before Christmas and she had work. Being the Vice Foreign Minister meant all work and no play, which did nothing for her. She had just escaped her bodyguards but they would probably find her in a matter of minutes. They were the new ones Millardo had hired and was known to be the best Preventers and pilots out there. All four seemed to have super human strength and Relena sometimes wondered where they got all these skills and only used it to protect her. She felt something fall on her nose and then looked up. It was finally snowing! She loved the snow because when it covered the ground, it gave a peaceful and mysterious look to them. She walked a bit farther.
*~*~*~*~*
"Next time we go out with her, somebody put a leash or something to keep her from running off!" The long braided brown haired and cobalt blue eyed guy said.
"She's weak…" The guy with black hair and black eyes said. He had his hair pulled in a ponytail.
"Hell Wu-man! The weak crap has nothing to do with this!" He said.
"Don't call me that…" He replied.
The emerald eyed and brown spiky banged guy came over with his tall figure. "We have to find her now,"
They nodded as all the other guy, brown unruly hair and Prussian blue eyes, replied, "Hn."
*~*~*~*~*
Relena giggled as she walked past the streets with the snow falling everywhere. She loved having this kind of feeling. No guards, no work, and most of all, she felt just plain free from her duties of work. She let her eyes run over the scenery of the market place. It was full and busy and the aromas of the foods that were cooking were going up into her nose. She walked over to the first stand. "Excuse me, but could you tell me what this wonderful thing is?" She pointed to a cookie like thing.
"Well, I don't really have a name for it, but if you want, would you like to try some?" The vender offered as he picked up a fresh one and handed it to her. He seemed like he was in his fifties and had kind indigo eyes.
Relena smiled and took it. "Thank you," She bit into it and was surprised. The middle had a sweet yummy pudding-like substance in the middle and it just oozed into her mouth. It was hot and steamy and the flavor just burst into her mouth. She chewed it and swallowed. "Oh my gosh, this is wonderful…what's the maximum that you would sell to a buyer?"
He laughed. "Well, I don't really have a number,"
Relena grinned. "Could you give me two dozens of these?"
He grinned back and nodded. "Coming right up!" He then punched a few numbers into the cash register. "That'll be 320 yen…" (That's about ten bucks in America bills.)
Relena took out her small purse and looked into it. Her eyes widened as all she saw was a few five thousand yen bills, a few thousand yen bills, and then another few five hundred yen bills. (I went to Taiwan last, last summer so I'm going by my experience while I was there! ^_^) She pulled out a five hunred yen bill, which was the smallest bill she could find and blushed as she handed it to him while he handed her the bag.
He smiled as he figured out the change. "Here's your-" He started handing it to her but Relena put up her hands.
She smiled serenely. "Keep it!"
He grinned. "Thank you,"
She laughed. "You're cookies are too wonderful to be this cheap! Hey, expect me back in a while!" And walked off with a wave.
"What a wonderful person…" He said as he went back to work.
"So dear-ie, how many did you sell today?" A woman asked. She had kind hazel eyes and also was in her fifties.
"I think I may have enough to give little Mika her operation," He said tiredly as he turned around.
She had tears in her eyes. "That's wonderful!" She hugged him.
*~*~*~*~*
Relena savored every single bite she took of the cookies. They were running out quite fast and she was getting thirsty. Along the way, she had bought many other foods and merchandises like a few very small crystalline figures, some hand made jewelry and more food. She couldn't believe how good everything tasted compared to the food she had always eaten at her home. 'Can't really call it home…more like jail,' She said in her mind. She loved this place. These people didn't realize she was their Queen and they treated her like a normal person. Not like the person they should suck up to to get whatever they wanted.
"MY GODS! SOMEBODY HELP HER! SOMEBODY HELP HER!" A crowd had appeared somewhere around the person who had been screaming it.
Relena pushed her way through the crowd and when she saw what had happened…she had to put her hand to her mouth to keep the bile from coming out.
"Ojousan!" Someone pulled her arm out of the crowd.
Relena could only let herself be pulled as she kept her eyes on the scene.
*~*~*~*~*
"Fifth time this week…Your bro ain't gonna be happy…" The playful pilot commented. He was the one with the braided hair and cobalt blue eyes. Out of all of the four, he had the most playful personality and was known for his tricks and whatnot.
The pilot with the emerald green eyes and brown spiky bangs put away his cell phone after talking in it. He was the quietest of them all and had also a very mysterious personality. He then opened the door to the limo that had been waiting for a while. Relena got in. "I called…" Trowa murmured into her ear before she got in.
Relena's face was shaded. What she saw…made her heart break. It was a little girl…no more then five…trapped under a table. The people there probably already had gotten the table off but the girl was injured. The table was quite heavy loaded with fruits and whatnot.
"…" The brown unruly hair pilot said. He was the one with the Prussian blue eyes and he was one that didn't have much to say. When he did…his voice was so void of emotions. His voice was just…monotone. "Relena…you can't run off like this,"
"You're such a weak woman…can't you just stay put for once?" The black haired and dark brown (or black) eyed pilot said. (I had it with saying 'guy')
"I need my freedom…Trowa," Relena asked. The car was started.
The emerald eyed pilot turned to her.
"Is she okay?"
"I..don't know."
The car was quiet for the rest of the ride back.
*~*~*~*~*
"DAMMIT RELENA! You can't go running off like this! You could get killed!!!" Milliardo yelled.
"Zechs…" Noin, a blue haired and blue eyed lady, called him by his nickname.
"Relena! Can't you see why I hired these four?! They were the best of the best and it's a good thing they always find you but you CANNOT run off! I WON'T ALLOW THAT!" Milliardo/Zechs screamed.
Relena raised her face to him. There were tears threatening to fall. "Then what will you allow?" The tears fell as she covered her face and ran out of the room.
"Zechs…" Noin said agitatedly.
"Yeah…yeah," Zechs said as he got up and walked in the direction Relena ran off to.
The four pilots stood there not mentioning one word.
"At ease boys…He's just a bit protective," Noin said.
"Ya got that right," Duo said with a snort. He got an elbow from Wufei. He grunted as he clutched his stomach.
Noin pretended not to notice. "You are dismissed," She replied.
They bowed and left the room.
*~*~*~*~*
Zechs' face of sorrow and pain for screaming at his little sister. "Relena, I'm really sorry about it all…"
Relena turned to him with a smile. "Zechs…I'm really sorry for running off,"
"No, I understand, you needed your freedom. But freedom comes with a price and with you…it may be your life," Zechs said wrapping her into his arms.
Relena nodded as she smiled. "Thanks brother…"
Zechs let go. "Hey…the wedding rehearsal is tomorrow and so is the ball. Are you still coming?" His and Noin's wedding was in a few weeks and Relena had been put in charge of the decorations and entertainment.
Relena laughed. "Well, I certainly hope so! I'm the maid of honor! Besides, the planning is 90% done and the entertainment is coming along quite well…"
"Aren't you gonna tell me who the entertainment is gonna be?" He grinned.
"Are you kidding?! It's a surprise!" Relena said.
"Alright…dinner will be soon, I'll see you there," Zechs said walking out of the bedroom and closing the door behind him.
Relena turned to her vanity table. 'I know what I must do…' And it wasn't about the wedding rehearsal.
Well, that's it! Sorry if it was confusing or it damn stunk or if there was things that may have annoyed you all…^^;; Anwyays, I hope you all liked this chapter er prologue and the next part probably will be out next week or something…^_^ Ja minna!
Sincerely,
Angel
