Full Summary - In a warring society where OZ has ultimate authority, fifteen-year-old Heero Yuy is on a mission from the Rebel Alliance that takes part in changing the fate of the world. But unexpected circumstances rise, and he finds himself without a memory and newly acquainted Duo Maxwell as his only ally. The thing is, Duo is just an ignorant civilian…and his father is Treize Khushrenada's closest advocate.

Author Notes:

One - The political elements are going to be a bit different for the plot's sake, which is not going to be according to the original Gundam Wing canon.

Two – This story is rated "T" only because of the violence; the rating for this story will never go up.

Three - Character thoughts are in italics, marked with single quotes, or both.

Disclaimer - I do not own anything of particular value in this story. Except my Gundam Wing DVDs. But that's beside the point.

Prologue

'Run.'

That was the one word that filled Heero Yuy's drained mind as he forced his exhausted legs to only pump faster. His wild blue eyes, fixated on the faraway image of a ghostly bridge, never dared to chance glancing back at his pursuers. His breathing was becoming ragged, and the bullet wedged in his wounded, bloody side wasn't helping any.

Hidden behind malicious looking storm clouds, the crescent moon brought broken, twisted lines down upon the curved, weather-beaten path. Dark trees in the background gave the scene a mysterious and abstracted appearance. The sky looked menacingly dim as the rain came down in torrents, drenching the weary boy's body. The bellowing wind could almost be heard…almost, as the howling of the hunting dogs was yet louder, and the shouts and screams of the boy's trackers could be almost piercing. And even that could be endured, Heero noted, if it were not for the beating of his very heart. That was absolutely intolerable.

'Run.'

Inhaling a breath sharply, Heero allowed his thoughts to trail back to the extremely important mission he was assigned. Everything went right at first: hacking into the massive city's public school computer system to enroll as a student was a synch; he needed a good cover up while he was "doing business" there, and conveying to the public that one was a mere student fit the bill best for Heero. Getting there was fairly simple as well. Even completing the mission wasn't going to be much of a difficulty.

What went wrong?

It turned out to be the simplest of things that got him into this position…
