Okay, okay, I know, you're probably angry with me for not updating on Under Pressure, if there are people who like that story so much anyways, but I'm still kind of stuck on that one and this popped into my head. I'm not sure where this will go, but I do know, it will be entirely centered around our Wuffers. I will also severely screw the Gundam Wing timeline, more on that in the second chapter. For now, this is just the beginning...

~*~*~*~*~*~

The thermal weapon slices through the hull of the mobile doll, like a knife through butter. The suit explodes in a haze of fire and debris.

~~

'Wufei, always stay true to your sense of integrity.'

~~

The extendable arm flies, crushing the empty cockpit of the Taurus. Another one meets its end at the blazing staff in the hand of the Gundam.

~~

'This colony will not be a liability for the ones needed to end this war.'

~~

Two more mobile dolls explode in the darkness of outer space, the cold vacuum swallowing every sound they would normally make.

~~

'Channel your anger so that you can use it for a just cause.'

~~

The cockpit of the blue and white Gundam is silent, save for the warning signals elicited by the computer system and the creaking of leather.

~~

'The clan of the Dragon is proud to have contributed to the war against space's dictator.'

~~

The invincible machine rocks under the onslaught of blows delivered by the enemy. The wines of protest coming from the engine remain unnoticed.

~~

'Master Long! What are you doing?!'

~~

Sparkling drops float in the cold air of the cockpit. The machine trembles as the cooling system of the engine explodes. Not that the thing is needed in the coldness of outer space.

~~

'Goodbye, Wufei.'

~~

A scream ruptures the silence of the cockpit as the last suit is destroyed. The body of the young boy in the chair writhes as guilt and grief lash through it. Loneliness of the bitterest kind holds that too fragile heart in an iron grip.

~~

The push of a button. The conviction of the colony inhabitants. The series of explosions startling the tense silence, all exactly three seconds apart.

~~

"NO!" The white clad body convulses, struggling against the restraints of the pilot chair. "My clan! My people!"

~~

The colony in the L5 cluster disappears in an expanding cloud of fire.

~~

"Why?!" Tears leak from onyx eyes. The lack of gravity pulls them away before they can begin to roll down marble cheeks.

~~

The Dragon clan condemned themselves in favor of a fifteen year old boy.

~~

"Why wouldn't you let me save you?! I could have taken them!" The torn voice echoes in the confined space. "They're weaklings! Cowards!" The body suddenly collapses, as if the strings holding it up suddenly snapped. "Why?" A hoarse whisper.

The coldness of space offers no answer.
