The wind played with his soft golden blonde hair, tossing it about him in a gentle current that refused lay flat for any reason, no matter how much he tried to argue with the wind. Of course part of his problem could be the fact that he was standing at the moment on a large blue metal foot, that was attached to an even bigger white leg with a pointed knee cap. The leg went up to a massive torso which hide the head from veiw, but he could see large blue jagged wings jutting out from the back of the gaint metal man. The distinct roar, as the man continued to float in the air hundreds of miles above solid ground. He was certain that if it wanted to, it could and would dump it, just by wiggling it's massive foot and knocking him off. He didn't want to be knocked off of the foot, he really didn't. Slowly looking down at the spot that he was standing on he looked up again then heard a warm almost childlike voice speak.

"Ah sorry about that." The voice seemed to echo around him. "Hang on a second, I'll have you out of the wind...in just a moment here." The voice said and he was certain that he would be just fine in the wind as long as the now talking gaint metal man didn't get mad and decide to kick him off into the blue blue sky.

"ah.." He started to say when the foot was no longer beneath his feet and he was free falling in the air the gaint man was summersaulting catching him in mid air and righting himself again, holding him cupped in the large metal hands.

His heart was racing in his chest. This was not something he had ever thought would happen to him, not in a million years. Not now not ever. Then the hand was bringing him up towards the face gaurded mouth, but the upper part of the chest opened and there was a young man...dressed in a black jacket and jeans with buckles in the oddest of places and since his clothes usually had oddly placed buckles that was saying a lot. Deep chocolate brown hair and warm amythest purple eyes. Then he was being dumped forwards into the others waiting arms and was lowered into the metal man, now sitting in the others lap and blinking at the odd things around him.

"Um, sorry about this, it's a little crowded in here, but it beats being out in the wind right?" the boy asked and he nodded his head.

"Yes, it does." He said in his own musical tones before looking back at the odd glass panels that showed him outside and then at the same time areas that werent' around them at all...did he have paintings in here as well?

"Hang on I'm going to take us back in." the boy said as he turned the giant metal man around and headed back for the island in the distance. Although he wasn't speaking at the moment and when he looked his langauge, or rather something very very simuliar was on the screen and he could hear the boy murmmering as he was directing the metal man back to the shore line.

"Ah, Bon Jour." the boy said and he turned his head blinking up until a minute ago it had been nothing but gibberish between them and now suddenly the boy was speaking his language? Amazing...perhaps there was some great secert to this world that allowed such a thing to happen.

"Hello." he answered back feeling a bit better at being able to communicate.

"Oh good I got it right, language studies are a bit more tricky to master." the boy said. "I'm Kira by the way. Kira Yamato."

"I am Fai D. Flourite." Fai said as he looked at him, mismatched eyes taking in the boy who was still bringing them back to the island. "Does you metal friend mind you bringing strangers inside of him?"

Kira looked at him quietly a moment before smiling. "Strike Freedom?" He said as he landed the gaint metal man inside a mountain side. "There's no worry about that. The gundam doesn't have an emtion chip or anything like that."

"Gun-dum?" Fai questioned and that earned a smile from Kira.

"Gun-dam" Kira amended and then the seat rose up carrying them both. Once they had both climbed out he shook his head and lead the way down the gangplank towards the metal stairs.

"If you don't mind my asking Fai how did you end up on Freedom's foot thousands of miles above ground?"

"Mm...that is a good question you see, it's not that I don't want to tell you, it's that I can't." Fai said shaking is head. "I just sort of fell from the sky and landed on Freedom's foot."

"Good thing we were there then hitting the ground would not have been good. Your transport must have torn a hole in it." Kira said shaking his head. "Just glad your alright. Come on, Lacus should be making lunch aright about now.

Fai nodded and followed Kira inside shaking his head as he walked with him. This world was already much different then anything he was used to, after all how many worlds out there had large metal men that, that weren't acutally alive?

Fai sighed as he spent the day playing lost in transulation. After dinner he was ready to call it a night, it wasn't that Lacus made him feel bad she tried hard to make him comfortable and Kira spent the day following him around so that he could translate for him. But it was the whole lack of eating thing or rather the light picking at lunch having to assure the girl over and over again that her cooking was good that he wasn't very hungry and finnally after dinner excusing himself to his room so that he could hide there. He had a means of surviving without Kuro-pu being pressent but he much perfered Kurogane to this bottle, there was no witty banter to be exchanged between them. After all the bottle didn't talk back.

Tipping the enchaned flask back he began drinking glad to find that the magic of the flask as Yuuko had promised did indeed keep the blood's essence alive, keep it at the right temp and never run out, and that as Yuuko would put it would not harm Kurogane, so that Fai could eat still between normal feedings wihtout harming Kurogane.

"Oh." Lacus said and he glanced over with his supposedly normal 'golden' eye. "I'm sorry I didn't meant to interupt."

But Fai could see the look on her face, the wounded look it would seem to her that while he barely ate anything he was drinking from a flask that could be construne as drinking alcohol instead of eating propperly. Slowly Fai lowered the flash and reached up with his fingertip to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, knowing that she was seeing a scarlet trail dissappear against his moon glow white skin.

"Was there something you needed?" He asked although she looked politely confused at his question. Then tipped her head and listened and he realized that Kira was in the hallway behind her.

"No, I just wanted to know if you had enough blankets for tonight..." She said softly.

Fai looked over at the bed and the blankets that were there. "Yes thank you I have enough....sorry I can't eat meat." He said in a way of applogy. "I didn't want you to feel bad so I didn't say anything. This is specially made for me."

Kira transulated and Lacus tipped her head.

"Oh I see." Lacus said smiling and then holding up a pale blue Haru.

"This is mister blue, I thought you'd like him to keep you company tonight since you just got here and all." Lacus said and once again Kira provided the words for him.

"Arigato." Fai said in a light tone and watched her blinke. He held up his fingers indicating that he knew a little very little of there language and that made her smile.

Lacus held out her hands and the blue haru was suddenly with him. Then looked over at Kira nodded leaving the room.

"Hey," Kira said as he walked in with something. "This is an Mpeg. On it is the entire Japanese language. I'd like to try something with your premission."

"Oh and what would that be Kira-kun?" Fai asked.

"While you sleep tonight, I'd like you to listen in your sleep to this and see how much you pick up....it's up to you though, I mean if you don't want to..." Kira said looking down.

'he's as polite as Syaoran' Fai thought watching Kira then smiled.

"It's alright Kira-kun, there is no harm in trying right?" Fai said softly then tipped his head. If it allowed him to learn Japanese, or a language close to Kuro-pon's Nihon then the next time they ended up on a world without Mokona close enough for transluation he could speak to him, or rather undertand everything his favorite Ninja was saying.

Kira smiled and handed it over. Explaining how the thing worked and took a deep breath, each lesson was loaded in and it was set in something called a play list. Which would go thru the different volumes and teach each one to him while he slept. Fai consindered this and nodded putting the enchanted flask away and saying good night to Kira as he got ready for bed.

Laying down he began listening to the language lessons and fell asleep with the light blue Haru bouncing around on the bed next to him before it rolled a moment or two and went into what Kira told him would be sleep mode.

Kira sighed as he climbed out of the hot shower having enjoyed the feel of the hot water against his skin for a while and walked up, looking at the com link indicator and turned it on, flashing off his chest to the private number that had called. There was only one person who would call from that number and Kira smiled as vivid emerald green eyes framed by delictable blue hair and lightly tanned skin flushed a pleasant shade of pink.

"Athrun." Kira said warmly glad to see his friend, and long time crush. The fact that he could not give up birdie, and that it hurt so much when he and Athurn were on opposite sides of things. He had tried so very hard to do the right thing and marry Lacus, while Athurn had been with Cagalli, and yet it didn't work out for either of them.

One he and Lacus where more like really good friends then lovers. Or like brother and sister. They had never kissed, and other then Lacus offering him comfort and being a mother hen to him she really didn't have any other indication of interest, in fact she spent most of her time with the children, taking care of the orphans that stayed with them, and even so far as to send him off on mulitple occasions to spend time with Athurn. As if she knew how he felt about the other, even if he would never be able to say as much.

"Ki..Kira?" Athurn stammered, which was cute, the way he could get so flustered too bad it wasn't because he liked him the same way though. "Am I calling at a bad time?"

"No, not at all Athurn, you could never call at a bad time." Kira said shaking his head and sitting down on the edge of the bed letting his towel rest over his shoulders. "Mom misses you, and we're all wondering when you're heading out this way next."

"As soon as I get some free time Kira." Athrun said shaking his head. "I'll head out that way, I promise."

Kira fought the urge to sigh. It was soo very unfair. He was technically the prince of Orb, and Cagalli was hogging all of Athurn's time. Of course she was still planning on marrying him and Kira, being the kind hearted fool that he was, was keeping his mouth shut about being in love with Athurn better to have him as a friend then to loose him altogether. At least that was the way his mind had worked it out for him.

"Kira?" Athrun said in concern and Kira blinked flushing slightly. "Ah sorry about that, I have a lot on my mind right now."

"Yeah, Morganrate said your had a extra heat source with you earlier and a few of the generals had thought about sending a unit out there to investigate. I offered to go instead and of course Cagalli put a stop to it all by saying that if you brought them there, then they were safe." Athurn sighed and sat back shaking his head.

"He's fine Athrun, he's from one of the french provances, barely speak our language at the moment I'm hoping to teach him it, and perhaps learn where he's from, his dilacet isn't quiet the one I was able to pull up but it's close enough that we understand each other." Kira sighed and looked at his long time friend.

"You honestly believe that he's safe don't you Kira?" Athrun asked.

"Yes, and Lacus likes him as well." Kira said nodding and Athrun laughed shaking his head. "Well if it's a seal of approval from the two of you how can I question it. Anyway I'll see if I can manage to head out your way tomorrow. Until then take care alright Kira? Don't do anything too brash."

Kira smiled. "Come on Athrun this is me." Kira said and Athrun just looked at him like he had lost his mind.

"I know, Don't do anything brash Kira." Athrun repeated shaking his head again then sighing. "Good night Kira."

Kira laughed and smiled. "Good night Athrun." He said then watched as the lights went out. "Sweet dreams my love." Kira whispered.

~*~

Athrun sighed as the screen went blank his fingers on the consol button and then shook his head. Kira was up to something he was certain of it, and although he wanted to drop everything and go, he had promised him that he would protect Cagalli. Which in truth was the only thing that was keeping him here. It was going to be a late night. There was no doubt in his mind about that. Cagalli had made it point blank clear to him, and although he had forgiven her, he could not forgot it, then again, he could not blame her either, She was trying to do what was best for Orb, and he was not what was best for orb. He was a coordinator and of course there was the fact that although he had an office here in the main building and spent his time babysitting her and keeping her safe, in his heart he only wanted to be miles away watching a different twin make mischief.

Athrun took a deep breath and walked down the halls, his footsteps echoing in his ears as he walked along the halls not saying much to anyone that he passed by after all he didn't want to cause any worry about where he was going seemingly unarmed.

Walking up to the holding cell he looked in at the man who was sitting in there. He was locked in the room, unarmed. Although the bionic attachment had taken some work on there part. He had been bleeding terribly form it, the attachment had been pulling away from the shoulder some tearing into flesh and blood and Athrun appaled had fixed it. Of course afterwards instead of being grateful the tall brute of a man had tried to take his head off. That had not amused Athrun in the least. Thankfully Kira had not thought anything of the highneck shirt he had been wearing because the airconditioning unit was on the fritz and the whole building was like ice.

Athrun looked in at him. "What is your name?"

All he got was a slow look up and burning crimson eyes set in a darkly tanned face and spikey black hair.

"Listen, we don't like this any more then you do. Orb is a country of peace, but we will not stand ideally by and be attacked." Athrun said narrowing his eyes at the dark haired man. "What is your name?"

"........"

Athrun pinched the bridge of his nose. "This is impossible."

"Is he still being uncorprotive?" Shin's voice came from behind him.

Shin was the peace ambassidor from the colonies that stayed in the capital with Cagalli helping her keep the peace in Orb. He was still a member of Faith but now that meant something different for him. Lacus was one of the vice chairmen in the planets and held vid confrences daily from here on Earth unless it was important that she go there to deal with something in person.

Kira was offically acknowledged as Prince of Orb next to Cheif representive Cagalli. And he despite not wanting it had been given the title of Prince of the Plants since he was a Zala and they had once held council seat, at the head even if his fathers views had been wrong.

Then there was Shin who was still just as tempermental as always. Athrun was still trying to figure out where the other fit in but he did. Of that he was certain.

"I am Athrun Zala, of the Plants. This is Shin Auska."

"....."

Athrun grit his teeth still no response.

"Suit yourself." Athrun sai das he turne dand began to walk away. "Coming Shin."

"Yeah." Shin said looking back at him.

They could go to hell in a hand basket for all he was concerned. Kurogane shook is head, he had no intention of giving them what they wanted. He was not going to tell them anything, when he woke up they had been playing around with the artifical arm and although it wasn't hurting he didn't know what he had done to it. The one called Athrun Zala. It wasn't that the boy had bad eyes, he didn't. It was that Kurogane although he could understand the boy didn't want to waist his time playing with him he wanted out for the sake of the idiot mage, he wanted out of this cell and to start searching for him before Fai got hurt...or worse yet, starved to death. That would be his luck, go to all the trouble to save his skinny ass and then he up and dies beacuse they got seperated. Not something he was looking foward to. It would break the kids' heart and the Princess? She'd be devistated.

He leaned back and rubbed at the bridge of his nose, they wanted answers to questions that he had, and although they could ask away and he even understood them, it would do nothing, notthing at all to alevate the problem....he didn't have the bloody answers. He could only hope the kid found the mage and that he had the Manjuu bunn with him. Otherwise they were all in serious trouble.

Syaoran blinked as he woke up Mokona resting on his stomach and looked about. There were too boys standing there one with blue white hair and the other with short curly blonde.

"See Yzak he's fine." the blone said shaking his head and smiling.

"I can see that!" Yzak snapped at him shouting and shaking his head.

"I am Yzak Jewell and this is Dearka Elsman."

"Li Syaoran." Syaoran responded. "And this is Mokona." Syoaran looked at him.

"You gave us all quiet the scare, I mean you appeared outside of the ship, luckily we caught you and were able to get you back to the plants in time." Dearka said looking at him.

"Ship plants?" Syaoran asked.

"Don't worry about it, just get some rest for now, you'll be fine." Yzak said and turned to walk out of the room.

Syaoran looked at them....just what the heck was going on?
