I DO NOT OWN G GUNDAM and this is my first fic ever so please tell me what you think but not to harsh or i may cry =)

"George….oh George why did you have to leave?" Such a foolish question I ask myself I know the reason. He is a fighter he must bring hope to our nation… he must fight and fight and keep fighting till the gundam of all gundams has been found. Even though Domon Kasshu is the King of Hearts George still keeps hope that the 14th tournament will be his. But why could he not bring me? Domon brought Rain, Chibodee has Shirley and the rest of the crew and of course the strict but loving Russian woman Nastasha with Argo. For God's sake even Sai Sici would see Cecile at the tournament that is set in the land of the rising sun; Neo-Japan. But no my knight promised me he would be back to me in the end and why should he not I am his Miss. Marie Louise.

" Miss. Marie Louise someone is here to see you." I was so lost in my thoughts that I didn't notice my maid Bella walk in and spilt tea on my dress.

" And who is this 'someone' Bella?" I asked not wanting to be interrupted.

" He said that he was an old friend."

Hope raised in my throat constricting my breathing as I wondered if this old friend could be my rose knight come to claim my hand. But no Bella would have said so if it was him.

" Ahh, then I suggest you bring me to him if he is waiting, or else he might think I have no manners at all." I said remembering my years of etiquette classes, rule number 52 never leave a guest waiting.

" Right this way madam." She said as she led me down the long corridor that only had one room. Mine. So that no one would disturb me I suppose though my father really never said why nor did I really ask. As I walked down that empty wooden halls with only my maids soft shuffling steps as a distraction that I desperately needed to keep my mind off of him. He was the only man I ever loved except that one summer so many years ago.

Flash Back

It was summer, I was nine and George was fifteen and already had his dream in hand a dream full of pride for his name and country. And my dreams were strained even at that tender age I loved him. But he was a teen and I had yet to reach 10. So I began for that one summer forget that I loved him, well not forget but simply tried to ignore and try to forget my dreams starring him every night. So I left him to his training only speaking a hello in the hall. Few weeks passed and I found it harder to remain abstinent from George. So I set out one day to wander through that garden but not the rose square at the east end of the garden because it would pain more then just my thorn pricked fingers to enter. So I decided to visit the lily's to the west wing of the garden . As I began I saw him George deSand in all his 15year old glory making his way over to the roses. I couldn't help it I cried out his name.

" GEORGE!" I yelled but immediately regretting it.

He turned stunned and peered into the bush that I was hiding in. " Princess is that you?" Since I was only 9 I started to bawl I was ashamed and embarrassed that I could not control myself enough to keep silent.

" Miss. Marie what is wrong?" George asked in a shocked tone.

" Nothing" I said back pathetically.

"Well I am sure the princess of France would not be crying over nothing." He smiled reassuringly. I stood and ran not wanting to tell him how I really felt and how I wanted to hug him.

I ran to the royal stables at the far north of the land that just touched the woods. I ran till I hit what felt like a fence post it was hard and straight but also warm and it breathed. But I was so wrapped in grief that I did not notice and I choose just to stand there and cry. Then the fence post talked and said. " What's a pretty girl like u doing all the way out here with no male escort to make sue you don't get in any trouble?"

I replied with what I could muster up witch came out like this " Fence posts don't talk."

The boy laughed and said "Well I'm not a post but I don't think your just any girl or am I wrong Princess?" To childish to say anything back I just nuzzled into the stranger and cried. Noticing that he smelled like peppermint and clean horse. What a strange combination but not unpleasant. Little did I know that this boy that was 12 at the time and named James Montley would be my betrothal for my 10th birthday.

End of Flash Back

As I walked down then grand stair case to the sitting room I saw the same sandy hair that was always their on the head of my 12year old fiancé and the same hazel eyes looking back at me , but they seemed darker somehow. But it couldn't be him….he….. He has been dead for years. An image of his tomb stone flashed in my memory as I felt a single tear for my lost lover slide down my cheek.

The figure stood and I saw what looked like James my ' fence post' and said " Well hello their." My heart just about stopped beating as I took in what I saw my lost love my dead love take a sip of peppermint tea, his favorite. All I could stammer was "You're…. a…. zombie?" Though I heard him say something that sounded like " close to it." He said louder " Why Marie you always did have a way with words." remembering the first time they met.

" How are you here a…a…alive I saw you die I saw, I saw the sword pierce through you!" Now hysteria sounded through my voice and was evident on my face. The room began to spin and I hade to sit down.

" Ahh, you'd think I should be dead but happily I am not and to further discuss the matter I suggest we head to a more private area say… your room?" He asked with a smirk. I could only nod and lead him in the general direction through the desolate halls and corridors.

llllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll

As we entered my soft pink room we sat down in a corner table and he picked up the conversation but on a more serious note.

" I am about to tell you something but you mustn't over react , understood?"

I nodded and gestured for him to keep speaking.

" Well then after I was stabbed by the sword I did not die I was taken away from the hospital at night by my parents and in my place a look alike body that I shutter to think how they got." He said taking my hand that I gladly gave to him because I really has missed him.

" They took me to a man I do not remember his name because I was so weak but I think it started with a K…. or maybe a C but that's not important he healed me but in a way that no one could ever know the truth for it would shame my family's name." At that I couldn't hear any more how could parents not want their child to be saved and be happy about it. So I yelled,

" How dare they not spread the good news of your full recovery and keep it such a secret so that you had to be stolen in the night!" I fumed mad because the thought made me sick.I was so mad that all I could do was stare at the pink wall across the table from me thinking that his parents were horrible. Then he said "Je t'aim ma cheri." I turned my head to see that his was down and I saw a small glistening tear fall from his face towards my white carpet and leaving a small darker stain. All I could say was "Je amour autres. I love you like I love a brother George is my lover." I said meaning every word of it. Then he looked up with an angry forced smile across his face that sent a trill of fear down my spine. "But you said yes, I remember at your birthday you told me yes, do you remember?"

Yes I did remember it was my 10th birthday party and everyone was there including George deSand but he was dancing with a black haired girl names Sarah Sherwood. Of course James and the rest of the Montleys were there as well. The waltz began and I hoped George would ask me to dance but no, he again asked the raven haired girl. James asked me and I accepted because he was kind of cute and I loved him but not the searing love I felt for George. Then as we were in the middle of the dance floor after a couple of spins the music stopped James got down on one knee pulled out a ring and asked for my hand in marriage, I was going to say no until I saw my knight look at Sarah like he had yet to ever look at me. I wanted him to want me so seeing no other option I said answered "Yes I will marry you." George looked up with wide stunned eyes and I saw him say my name but I could not hear him over the loud cheers. I smiled a cold, cunning, sly smile and was swept up by my fiancé. We were to have a long engagement and marry on my 14th birthday. Of course I had no real intention of marrying him just an engagement for 1 or 2 years then I would return to my Knight. Of course only royalty could get betrothed so young to ensure that in the future I would produce and heir. Mine and George's heir.

YOU WILL BE MINE." He said ending my memories as I became mad at him.

" No, no, NO! I will not marry you! I am princess and I decline you.

"I will not leave her until you accept." James was now starting to really scare me.

" Then you shall be b…BANSIHED!" I said mustering up all the anger I had left.

" I WILL NOT BE BANISHED!" And with that he swept me up we jumped out my window.

LllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllI don't know when I passed out but when I woke up I was on a feather down bed, my leg was bleeding making a stain on the white sheets and my head pounded. I was not tied up but the door was locked and all windows were all to small for me to climb out. So I went in search of a first aid kit, not finding one I started for the bathroom. It had a sink, toilet, shower, and mirrior. As I checked myself out in the mirrior I noticed I had a small bruise on my left cheek, a rip in my dress just above the cut, and brush in my hair. As I was removing the remnants of the bush from my hair I notice dried blood but finding no wound I concluded that it must me James's. And I was in a hotel room from the looks of it. Wanting no part of him on me I rinsed it out in the sink and went to turn on the tv. As the dark screen flashed to life the news came on a blond woman said "Our Princess has been missing for 2 days now. 50 dogs and 80 men have been searching the palace grounds for any trace of her. And countless have been deployed throughout France." I heard footsteps outside of the door so I turned the tv off and pretended to be sleeping. And then the door opened.

George

George was getting ready for his match against Neo-Denmark's Mermaid Gundam when his phone began to ring. Getting annoyed because he should be getting ready for the match he answered curtly with a "Hello? Who is this?" On the other end of the phone he heard a distressed king that said,

" Hello… hello, George is it you?"

" Yes it is your Excellency I was not expecting your call." The Knight said sounding nicer this time.

" Marie has been taken! It's been 2 days and we cant find her please George you have to help me! She's all I have left now. I know you're the only one who can find her, you know her better then any one. Please for your country?" George was getting fureouse that no one had informed him earlier. For 2 days she had been missing. 2 days George was unaware of the situation. But knowing that it would not make it better to yell he used as much calm as he could muster up and said.

" No not this time. THIS TIME ITS FOR MARIE-LOUISE!!" He couldn't resist the temptation to yell the last sentece. The King sighed in relife and said,

" France is lucky to have a noble knight like you."The king stammered. George mumbled a thank you and shut his phone. "RISE GUNDAM ROSE" and with a snap of his fingers he was in the gundam's cockpit getting his MTS suit on. About 15 minutes later he was flying above water. Miss. Marie I will save you from whom ever has taken you by God's name I swear it he thought. This is not fast enough though he was going faster then any air plane could. Then the gundam began to glow a golden color and he yelled "Rose Hurricane!" but instead of sending the wind in front of him he sent it behind him so that it could further propel him. Keeping this up is goin to be a bigger challenge then I expected he thought to himself. After an hour of flying over land and sea the knight finally landed on the lawn of the palace. That had been one of the most tiring things he had done and he was proud but that emotion was only secondary to his anger he felt. George was so tired he wanted to pass out right there in his cockpit and the gold slowly seeped away. While he was laying there an image of Marie-Louise flashed into his memory and he slowly began to stand up and make his way across the lawn to the king who was waiting at the palace steps for him. "George you must be exhausted please take a seat." The King was concerned for the knight.

" No thank you your majesty, I will not rest until I have found her." Determination strong in his voice. He knew that it was true these nights that she was away he would not sleep and he would barley eat.

" Ahh then I see no reason to dilly dally come." The King led the Knight to his private off ice wich looked more like a small library with a desk then an office. France's king began " We have found little evidence but here it is, a bow that she always wears in her hair," George recignizend it and it sent a pang of sadness in his heart. "a piece of her dress with a blood on it, and a note. But befor you read it you should be brifed on the situation." George nodded in agreement. " You're not goin to belive this but we know who took her." George's eyes grew wide and he said,

"Why then by all means tell me." The king just shook his head then said,

" James Montley." Now George was chuckling to himself; James had been dead for years.

"Excuse me sire but he has been dead for 9 years now." He said as if it shoud be obvious.

"Ahh you'd think so wouldn't you but no we have contacted his parents and we forced the truth out of them. They had taken him from the hospital and they healed him with DG cells givin to them by Kyoji, not that I could blame them if Marie was sick I might have done the same." George looked up to see the King's head down with an ashamed look on his face for admitting that to George. Flashing a reassuring smile George said,

" I too would go to great lenghts to save ."

"Yes I belive you would." The King flashed a smile knowing that the man befor him would most likely be his son in law one day if no one died first. The thought sent a shiver down the mans spine. "Are you alright?" A concerned George deSand asked.

" Wha….Oh yes, yes now please read the letter." He insisted.

George opened the envelope and it read 'The Princess is now mine, I will make her my bride. She was promised to ME not that deSand! I suggest you don't come after us unless you want her sent back to you piece by piece. Sienceraly: James Montley

George was stunned. How could someone do this to mmy Marie-Louise he thought. I promise when I save her I will marry her. Damn the rest if they have a problem with it I love her. And with that George set out to find his coeurs's amour, his heart's love.

Marie

I felt my heart race when the door open and I knew I would be found out from my uneven breathing.

James leaned over me his breath smelled of alcohol and he almost fell on me he was so drunk. He stumbled around the room went to the bathroom to obviously do what he had to do and came out. He managed to get over to me after some time. He lifted the sheets off my body and slapped my butt. I was so surprised by this action that I immediately sat up and slapped him, no one could touch my butt and walk away unscathed. He looked up at me with a half mad look and lust written all over his face and started at me. In vain I cried for help and many times screamed George's name wich angered him more. He pushed me down to the bed and tried to undo the ribbon around my back and the buttons. But he was drunk and I was not so I managed to run into the bathroom after a kick to the groin and lock the door. I knew I only had seconds befor he broke down the door; he was a very strong man. Their was only one thing I could have a hope of doing so I tried. I yelled "RISE GUNDAM ROSE!" and snapped my fingers hopeing that by some miracle it would work for me. He kicked down the door his nuckels bloody from the many punches he attempted, he finally had me were he wanted he stumbled over to me his sandy hair seemed to get darker and his eyes turned red I had only seen that look on people that were infected. Infected with DG cells. Yes, that would explain it all. How he was saved when he clearly should have died, the pure strength, but why had he waited so long for this when he could have come years ago. Just then my thoughts and his lustful approch were interupted by a crashing sound and 2 huge green metalic eyes peering at me thru the window.
