Disclaimer: You know how this goes!
Rehya frowned and beared her teeth, looking down at her cup of tea and stirring it. Valearia sat at the other end of the table, looking out the window, sighing with meloncholy.
"You know they'll interrogate me..." Rehya spat. "They'll want to know if that coward is hiding here." Vale pursed her lips.
"Don't worry about it Reh. They already know the idiot is hiding behind the Taliban." at tear crawled down Valearia's cheek. "They know he's in Afganastan."
Rehya slammed her fists down on the table. "If he comes...if he ever manages to get into Egypt...into Quatre's base..."
"Now, now Rehya, don't worry about Quatre." she wiped at the rare drop of moisture on her face. "He's safe and sound. You've already closed of your borders, correct?"
"Yes of course...but what if that son of a bitch manages to get in to the base at Giza and gets his filthy hands on Hyoto and Sandrock...he'll..."
"Heero will kill him before that happens, m'dear." Valearia smiled. "I'd bet my life on it.
Rehya stood up and gazed outside the tall window, at the pyramids of Giza. "Relena is trying to get in touch with the Taliban..." She lazily laughed. "Heero was discouraging her but...she keeps trying. Do you know what Heero and Duo said?"
"What." the small German girl said, standing as well and sliding her glasses up her nose.
"They said that some people in the colonies were selling mobile suits on the black market...But who knows it thats true..."
"Oh God." she laughed to her self. "Really? You won't belive what some Americans are doing!"
"I can only imagine...do you think they know what they're doing? What did Une say?"
"Not that my sister ever says much...." Valearia joked.
"Heheh." Rina smiled, Lady Une did tend to be a bit uptight.
"Treize said he thinks that what they're doing is right" Vale walked over to Rehya. "I mean it *is* war..."
"Do you know what kind of mobile suits they are using? If any?"
"Hardly. Any." Valearia said, sighing. "A few Leos and maybe some Taurus'..." she looked up at Rehya. "You know what I mean when I say, 'a few' almost none!"
"How do you think they'll go about winning this then!?" Rehya rubbed her eyes. "Ugh...maybe we can contribute or something..."
"I hope so, that Bush fool needs to open his eyes! This is war. He needs more advisors." Valearia exclaimed.
"Well let's see...what does the Taliban have in defense?" Rehya said, staring out the window, at nothing in particular.
"America helped them when they fought the Soviet Union. So they're gonna fight back with it own." Valearia Une sighed. Her sister, Lady Une had told her that....that and that only.
"How dare they betray the United States like that," Rehya folded her arms, watching people in the streets work. "They are complaining about how crude and immoral the country is, when the US is the one suppling their hungry with food, and injured with medicine..."
Valearia nodded "I know Rehya, I'm glad i'm your advisor, here in Egypt." she said, meaning every word. "Germany ain't to great either, to tell the truth." she sighed.
"Have they captured anymore people?" She asked, turning toward Vale. "Anyone else involved in on the attack?"
"Not that I've heard of..." Valearia's chocolate eyes sifted through the streets of Giza. Her seventeen year old form served her well, but as she though about how hard it must be to live in Afganastan, her knees buckled and she fell to the cold, hard floor
Rehya jumped. "Valearia!" She helped her up. "What's wrong...?"
"Nothing..." she said, getting back up and straiting up her cloathes.
"If you say so..." Rehya frowned. Suddenly, there came a burst at the door.
"Your Highness!" A servant wailed. She and Valearia spun around.
"What is it, Gaviv?"
Valearia stood there, blushing. "Hello...." she looked down, trying to find an excuse for being on the floor. "WOW, Rehya, your floor is reaaaaaaaaaally clean!"
"Well I must be going.." Valearia said, stepping out the door. "Farewell, Rehya."
Vale slid past the tall Egyptian servant and onto the streets. She walked to her car. As she drove to the small apartment she shared with Duo, sorrow pitted her stomach.
Rehya watch Valearia leave with a quizzical look. The servant's distressed voice made her forget...
"Your Highness," He panted. "The Northern Alliance is on the vid-phone, and they wish to speak with you and Miss Valearia."
Rehya cursed to herself. *They're going to flame me...*
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Valearia walked into her apartment. As she was about to turn the lights on, she felt two arms snake around her waist.
"Hey." Duo said from behind her.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Rehya briskly walked down the Palace corridors, her Egyptian robes flaring.
"They know I'm busy..."
"I'm sorry, Your Highness..." Gaviv panted.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Vale smiled. She was about to turn around when the the phone rang. "Hello, Valearia Fairchild Une speaking." she said into the phone.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Vale it's me," Rehya hurriedly said. "Listen, I'm sorry you have to leave again, but this is an emrgency...The Northern Alliance wants us to meet with them in Germany. Do you know what this is about?"
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"No." she said, as Duo attacked her neck. "No...but i'll get there as soon as I can."Bye." she hung up the phone. "I gotta go babe, sorry." she said to Duo as he looked at her with a hungry look sorrow and deprivation. "See you as soon as I can." she left him with a kiss.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Rehya hung up, straightened her hair, and sat down infront of the video phone. She pressed the "talk" button.
"Miss Osha, it's not very respectful to keep us waiting," A gentleman said.
"I am aware of that, sir."
Vale walked in the door, about ten minutes later. "I'm back...." she said, smiling. She was in a long silver gown, much to everyone's comfort.
Rehya turned toward her, beckoning her over to the phone. "See, Mr. Hathoway, my advisor never lets me down."
"Yes, well...listen closely, Miss Valearia."
The German teen smiled, "Yes Sir."
"The Northern Alliance wants to make sure that Egypt is not infultrated anymore by the Taliban."
Rehya knodded. "Yes sir. I have closed all borders-"
"Miss Rehya, please understand that we are taking any means possible to eliminate the Taliban. If they hijack one of your mobile suits-"
Valearia cut in. "Sir, I assure you that--" The man silenced her
"Miss Valearia, *please*, I wish you could respect Miss Rehya a little more, with silence, prehaps."
"Mr. Hathoway, I am trying to do what you are telling me. I personally looked over the procedure in security and seen the lock on our bases. Even if the Taliban *do* get their hands on the mobile suits, I can promise you they won't make it over the Suez Canal..."
"Then what about the Winner's Family base?"
Valearia's brows creased. "Sir Quatre has taken special mesures as well--"
The man cut her off again
"Miss Valearia. I know it *is* your job to give advice in these times, yet, I would like to hear Miss Rehya speak." Vale sighed *Why do I get the impression that he doesn't like me.*
"Like my *advisor* said, sir. Quatre Winner is there at the base as we speak. He has secured the base, but that's all I know. If you'd like to know, please consult with him, not I. We are very busy here, and I'm sorry for the short cut-off, but I must return to my obligations of this nation. Good day, Mr. Hathoway." Rehya slammed her fist on the "talk" button.
Vale scoffed. "He. Is. An. Idiot." she spoke in short spurts, her eyes dark, as her eyes fell to the floor.
Rehya stood. "Get some rest. Tommorow they're going to be testing the G14s, shipping them to the US. I need you to look it over while I get in touch with Quatre."
