Nightmares from the Past - Prologue
Relena.. A voice called. The named person tossed and turned in her bed. It was coming back again; she was coming back again. It had been going on since she was 6 years old, at her old boarding school. Luckily, Relena had been able to keep a cool head around her peers. But Relena frequently remembered nights of running through the halls, a masked figure chasing her. When she switched out of that school, the nightmare ceased. But the 4 years of masked terror had been too deeply embedded in the young girl. Over time, she had almost forgotten her. But now the dreams were coming back. That was how it began. The dreams...
As I stated before, Relena tossed and turned in her bed, grabbing the sheets and tears pouring down her cheeks. A lone figure ran in from the balcony and looked at her. His eyes blinked, then went over to the bed and picked up Relena. Blue eyes popped open. Relena lifted herself off of his lap and looked at him.
"Relena, what happened?"
"Heero.." Her eyes filled with tears and she began to sob into his chest. Heero wrapped his arms around her and stroked her hair. "Tell me what you saw." Heero said.
"I can't." Relena said. No, she wouldn't bring him into this. Most who did, ended up dying. She had been lucky. Out of the 5 girls terrorised, she had been the only one who survived. She had been smart and stayed through the entire thing. The other girls had panicked and asked their parents to take them out. They didn't last a week.
"This is the third night you've had them in a row. Tell me what is wrong?" Heero said. Relena looked into his eyes and thought about telling him. He was, after all, a Gundam pilot. The best out of all of them. No, she couldn't take liberties with his life. She knew he would jump right in and protect her. But only she decided who lived and who died. And if you didn't play the game, you were eliminated.
"I'm over it already. Don't worry about me." Relena said with a half hearted smile. Heero gave her a questioning look and then walked out. Relena lay back down on the bed.
Don't think your sweetheart can escape the game, my little Lena. He and those other four will make excellent players...
Relena closed her eyes. Please stop....
But little Lena....the game is about to begin.......
