I don't own any of the anime characters I use.
Glazed purple orbs stared deep into the blackness of space. Stars twinkled in the distance, a constant reminder of pains not yet finished. A sigh emitted from the girl who sat in the chair looking out to the world. "One year…today…" Hotaru Tomoe stated in a hushed whisper. "One year ago…I awoke to this…" She glanced down, watching the silver blue ball that made up Earth. It's green, white and other colors contrasted greatly with the black nothingness of space. Through the dimmed window she caught glimpses of a tall white set of mobile suits. They were Gundams, yet another of this new worlds twisted creations. Capable machines of mass destruction that held no heart but a pilot instead. She herself had become one of these few. Glancing, she watched as the Gundam Sandrock turned a sun red color as they descended into the stiff atmosphere of her once home planet. The war was over…It had been as soon as the Gundams brought news of Relena's death. It seemed all wanted to mourn her loss. Every normal person mourned, while Hotaru and the pilots seethed. Relena and Chaos were the causes of the wars in the first place. The fighting had begun with Relena's line, a bloodline Hotaru traced back to…She blinked back tears. The blood of Usagi's younger brother, Shingo. How strange it was…that all the death, all the pain would go back to the little brother of she who would ascend as cosmos. Shaking her head, Hotaru turned to see Duo and Wufei racing up and down the halls of the shuttle. She snickered at the wide expressive eyes her dear Duo gave as he ran from Wufei whose Kanto was out waving wildly. She couldn't help but clutch her stomach as she took notice of Wufei's clothing. The white attire he always adorned was now decked pink and up one of the sleeves was…wait a moment. Was that her light pink lipstick? Eyes hard, she glared as Duo hid behind her. "D-chan…" She muttered, feeling waves of childish behavior racing off her. He turned his violet blue eyes to her, his face in complete glee. "Yeah, T-chan?" He questioned softly, ducking from one of Wufei's blows. "Run…" She stated, grabbing her practice staff for karate. The young male's eyes went wide and one could see his hair following him as he raced into another section of the craft. Heero Yuy opened his dark midnight eyes, glaring sternly as the other two pilots chased the child like member. His eyes met with dark brown bangs as he looked solidly forward. "Idiots…" He muttered, smirking somewhat as he looked at Earth.
Hotaru sighed as she pulled Duo along by his braid. The brunette kept crying out apologies as they walked down the guarded hallway toward another Preventor base. As soon as Hotaru had caught her love, she found their positions turned around. Blushing somewhat at the memory, rather than the position, she glared straightforward, smoothly following Trowa and Heero's movements. She glanced sharply at new boss, according to the doctors…Lady Une…The very same woman who had separated her from her friends and scattered them across the new era. Clenching tighter to the hair in her hands, Hotaru's glare turned almost Heero like. She then felt a hand resting on her own. Blinking, her violet eyes met Duo's pure almost darkly colored ones. He sighed and pulled her into a hug before grabbing her hand from his hair. Tugging her along, the two followed the five others into another secret room.
"The reason you five…" Une stopped when Duo coughed, nudging his head in Hotaru's direction, "Six have been summoned here is for pressing matters." She stated, glancing softly at the young woman. "Just get on with it, onna…" Wufei hissed sharply, also sensing Hotaru's displeasure about being around the woman. "It is quite simple, Wufei…" A voice told them as two emerged from shadows. Hotaru looked at the two men entered. "Lieutenant Noin has gone…and we don't understand this perfectly but she seems to be building something all our technological laws have called impossible." The tall man with shimmering brown hair sighed. Wufei was biting out "Trieze" and "Fight" and "rematch" almost continuously. "Shut up, Chan…." She muttered. The boy just glared at her. "So what is she building?" Quatre' patiently questioned, intervening between the two dark haired warriors. "A time machine…" The pale haired man next to the other spoke out. Hotaru almost collapsed from her chair. "A WHAT?!" Four of the six yelled at once.
TBC…
