Mobile Suit Gundam Wing
The Everlasting Story
By SS4Vegeto
A/N: This was my first Gundam Wing fan-fic, and it was written about a year and a half to two years ago, as will be stated in the disclaimer. The original copy of this was on Creative Writer 2, so now, December 2001, I decided to re-write it for posting on FanFiction.net. This is a mystery/Action/Adventure/Drama/Romance fic (jeez what a lot of genres!) and it's rated PG-13, for violence and some cursing. Anyway, don't blame me if this fic isn't "up to par" with the rest of my fics- it's very, VERY old. Um, it may seem it, but there isn't any yaoi in this AT ALL. Sorry, but Quatre and Trowa are best friends, in my opinion, anyway. So those scenes with Quatre and Trowa, well, they're best friends, so what did you expect? BTW, I don't know if the bomb part is accurate, I just made it up, so don't take my word on that. Anyways, hope you enjoy! ^_^
DISCLAIMER: Do I look like I own Gundam Wing? Didn't think so. Anyway, I wrote this way back (I think in '98 or '99) when I had first seen the Endless Waltz and I thought it was a really cool idea (writing something that stars everybody but mainly Trowa becuase he was my fave pilot at the time... Now it's Heero. Oh well). It actually turned out okay. R&R, if you would. Please, tell me if I should start writing on The Everlasting Story 2! Please, if you want to solve this mystery, then tell me! Or, you could just e-mail me at rowenhashiba@hotmail.com and let me know! Whichever. Thanks! SS4Vegeto (aka Rowen)
P.S. This is in chapter form. Chapters will be posted.
The Everlasting Story
Chapter 1: Just Don't Die
"Man... They just don't DIE, do they? You'd think by now they'd know not to mess with us." Duo Maxwell, pilot of the Deathscythe Hell Gundam from the Colony Cluster at Lagrange Point 2, complained to the others; but, it was a cheerful 'let's kick ass' complaint. Duo was almost always cheerful, and tended to joke a bit too much for the others' likings.
"I know what you mean..." Trowa Barton sighed, getting a stare from the others, because he rarely speaks and they hadn't expected it. Trowa was also known as Triton Bloom, or was, as a child. He is the pilot of the Heavyarms Gundam, and is one of the more serious pilots; he rarely speaks, and is always (well, pretty much always) very serious. He's the pilot from the L3 Colony Cluster.
"Sorry I'm late... I heard a bit too late." Heero Yuy, the very late pilot of the Gundam Wing Zero apologized as he came in. Since the beginning of the missions on Earth, he had been slowly learning how to be more social. He is the pilot from the L1 Colony Cluster, and is usually very quiet and not nice at all.
"You're excused." Said the only very calm one of them, Wufei Chang, pilot of the Gundam Altron. He's from L5 Colony. He's a serious guy, usually very quiet, quieter even than Heero.
"Come on in.. We were just talking about it." Invited Quatre Winner, pilot of the Gundam Sandrock and the kindest among them. Quatre loved animals, and was kind to all sorts of people. He's from the L4 Colony. His full name is Quatre Rebarba Winner, making him the only Gundam Pilot willing to tell his middle name.
"Yeah... We weren't in any RUSH to destroy OZ again..." Duo remarked sarcastically. "It's okay.." He laughed. Trowa waved.
"Yeah.. Whatever." Heero replied. He looked at Duo with a menacing grin. Duo flinched slightly; when that guy wanted to, he could be downright scary.
"Cut it out you two." Quatre said, spying a potential fight and stopping it before it started. It happens alot around here, the fights, of course, but they only get to actually fight when Quatre isn't around. Speaking of fights, Quatre though, rubbing his arm, he still had a bruise from the last time he had tried to break up a fight between Heero and Trowa, when Heero had gotten mad and hit him in the arm. That was a week ago, but it still hurt. Heero, by the way, is the strongest among them, with borderline-inhuman strength. Trowa sighed again and flipped on the TV to a rerun of Buffy The Vampire Slayer, bored.
"Huh? What the heck? Oh... That would be another vampire?" Duo asked, watching the TV.
"You should watch this more often.. That's the Master vampire." Trowa explained, earning a stare from Duo.
"Uh-huh... I'll check that out... You watch this often?" Duo asked.
"Not really.. I read the books.. Some of them come with screen shots. I don't watch the show unless I'm bored..." Trowa explained, watching Buffy slay some more vamps, "And I am bored."
"Oh." Duo said, kind of spellbound watching Buffy kick vampire butt, "I.... See."
By now everyone was watching, even Wufei, sitting on the couch, Heero looking POed and Wufei and Trowa just looking bored.
A while later, they had suited up to stop a shipment of Gundanium to the rebuilt Lake Victoria OZ base, where, rumor had it, they were trying to construct their own Gundam, and the Gundam Pilots were to intercept it and take it back to repair their own suits with.
"Okay.. Is everybody ready?" Heero asked, making the final adjustment ot his cockpit, then paused, "Hey... Who disabled the self-destruct?"
"I did.. We don't want you dead." Replied Trowa, admitting to himself that he really did care what happened to Heero, "You shouldn't need it."
"I'll get you for that." Heero commented.
"Uh-hem.. Can we get going?" Asked Wufei.
"Let's go." Quatre announced, and, just like that, they were off.
When they arrived at what would soon be their battlefield, they found that OZ was waiting for them, with about 60 or 70 Taurus and 20 Leo suits.
"We can handle this.." Quatre observed.
"They're Mobile Dolls.." Heero remarked, "This oughta make things interesting."
"I know.. We've been training against them in the simulation, remember?" Trowa answered, "We should be able to handle them."
"Heck yeah." Duo said.
"Let's go, huh?" Wufei said sarcastically, immediately attacking the nearest Leo Mobile Doll, grabbing the head with his Gundam's extending dragon arm, and crushing it until the entire Mobile Doll exploded. Then he went for a Taurus.
Heero went for the controlling carrier, while Trowa went around for the carrier with the Gundanium, to destroy the entire cockpit and render it immobile. Duo went head first for a Taurus suit, and Quatre accidentally got into a tangle with three Mobile Dolls. Suddenly one of the Dolls near Quatre blew up.
"Thought you could use some help." It was Trowa.
"Thanks." Quatre said, surprised, but not showing it as he used his sickle to cut a Mobile Doll in half. The Heavyarms loomed up in front of Quatre as he watched it destroy the last of the Mobile Dolls on Quatre.
"No problem." Trowa replied, heading back for the Gundanium Carrier, and destroying the cockpit like he was supposed to before having to help Quatre out.
"Mission Accomplished." Both Trowa and Heero said at the same time, getting some strange looks. The Mobile Dolls stopped working. Heero had destroyed the carrier with the controls inside.
"Good work!" Quatre said enthusiastically to Trowa. His best friend had saved him and captured the carrier. Trowa looked at him, and there was a mixture of embarrassment and proud strength in his eyes.
"It was pretty easy... I have to say, I was expecting more.." Heero remarked.
"Yeah... Think it was a setup? They've done it before." Trowa said, recalling the time OZ had done something similar; revealing two routes for the shipment, and using the air route as the real one, but making them think the land route was real, in order to trap Heero. They hadn't been counting on Zechs and Heero's battle there. Then they had threatened them by using the Colonies as a shield, provoking Heero to buy them some time by self-destructing his Gundam, giving Trieze Khushrenada, leader of OZ, time to contradict the leader of the plan, Lady Une. Trowa knew this because he had been there, there to pick up Heero's ravaged body and take him to safety, where he nursed him back to health.
"You're right... Let me check for a minute.. Here.." Quatre said, hacking into OZ's files, "No, this seems to be the real route... Check the carrier.."
Trowa did so. The Gundanium was all there. But, so were the time bombs.
"They've thought of everything.. They knew we would come. There are time bombs in here.. Set to go off in ten minutes." Trowa reported.
"Ten minutes?! Are you sure?" Asked Duo. Trowa nodded.
"Yeah... I'm gonna try to disarm them.." Trowa mentioned.
"Trowa, you could get hurt, or worse.." Quatre said, worry evident in his tone.
"You guys get away from here. If this thing blows up, you're gonna be destroyed." Trowa demanded.
"But-" Quatre started. Trowa glared at him, hard, and Quatre knew that he was determined to do this, or die trying.
"No buts.. GO!" Trowa said, rushed and angry.
"Trowa..." Quatre whispered, going away with the others.
"We can meet at the Sanc Kingdom. If I'm not there in two days, I'm dead. Got it?" Trowa said. Quatre nodded, still resistant, but he knew better than to argue with Trowa when he was angry.
"Oh help.. Not there." Heero remarked sarcastically. Sanc was not his favorite place to be.
The others set off, leaving Trowa to disarm the bombs. He quickly realized that they were placed so that if one went off, they all went off. None-the-less, he moved to the first one. Carefully opening the case with a screwdriver, he looked at the wires inside.
Let's see... Red is the timing mechanism, I snap that and the timer goes to zero and this place goes up in smoke.. Green is the detonator.. Snap that and I'm history.. Yellow? That's the one.. The connection to the charge.. If I can disconnect it, the time will go up, but the charge won't go off... So I just do this with them all.. He thought. And he did. Except that when he got to the last one, the timer was on 5 seconds. Oh great, he thought to himself as he made his way to the wire.
He looked down at the wire as the clock reached two seconds.
He reached for the wire and began to pray....
A/N: Okay, that's the first chapter. I know, short, huh? Originally, it took up 3 and a half pages. Actually, I changed a lot of this from the original, mainly because I didn't want to give anything away for the later story, because it was originally meant to be read as a whole, not one chapter at a time. Thanx for your time, and please review!! Arigato!
Sayanora,
SS4Vegeto
P.S. If you like Dragon Ball Z, too, please read my fic Worlds Apart!! I'll start Part Thirteen soon, I promise!! I just happen to have this major case of Writer's Block in that area. Please read it, especially if you really like Vegeta or Mirai (Future) Trunks. Actually, they're all in it, but the first two or three parts star basically just Vegeta, Mirai Trunks, and Bulma, although Goku makes several appearences. It's also a good fic if you liked DBZ's Buu Saga tournament, the Heaven's Tournament, 'cuz there's one of them, too!! Thanx! C-ya!
