I really wish I owned Gundam Wing, but alas...it's not true.
So, I've mostly been lurking in the fandom for years so this is my first try at writing a GW fic. I hope it meets (and maybe even surpasses) your expectations!

Prologue
by Queen Nehelania

The silent Shadow watched as applause shook through the Convention Hall, intent on its target.
"I see you made it."
"You know I couldn't miss it." The Shadow turned, its weapon flashing ominously. "It's part of the deal."
"Just see to it that you don't make a mistake. He has a way of avoiding the inevitable."
"Don't worry. I never miss."
"I'm counting on it. Don't fail us."
"I won't. It's part of the deal after all."
"Yes. After he falls, we will be able to close in on the girl."
"A true test of strength."
"We'll see if she's worthy."
"Her heart is strong…" The Shadow wavered ever so slightly in doubt.
"…We'll just have to see how strong."
"Yes." The Shadow turned. "It's time."
"Strike true, we're counting on it."
"Like I said, I never miss."
The sandy blonde on the stage had reached the climax of her speech and was leaning on her podium, her eyes flashing with emotion. The Shadow felt for the target…and found it. It was time.
The girl finished her speech and had just enough time to step down from the podium…before the shadow struck. There was a flash, a mere blur, as the one that the Shadow had been waiting for pushed the girl out of the way…and took the bullet.
The Shadow slowly backed away and disappeared into the darkness where it belonged and thrived, its mission…completed.
