WOOT! SEQUEL TIME! Actually, you didn't even have to read "The Day Has Arrived" to understand this. Just a couple references! So, newbie's WILL understand this. So no worries on either end! Oh, and thanks SOOOO much for the reviews guys! I couldn't (and wouldn't) have continued without ya'! I love you all! *blows kisses* Oh, and thank goodness, Leggy hasn't found me yet.

Legolas: Haha! You thought you could hide, but you can't! Muahaha! I shall take over this fic!

Me: Just do the disclaimer. (Which I have been forgetting to do...)

Legolas: Hannah does not own anything from God Gundam (except for some really cool model kits!) or basically anything else. Oh yes, she does not own me! *turns to Hannah* YOU HEAR THAT HANNAH?! YOU DON'T OWN ME!

Me:*Whistles nonchalantly* Who, me? Oh well. Just get on with the story! You know nobody even reads this stuff!

3 gunshots. Screams of terror and pain. A thud. Those noises were all that he could hear a he ran to the source of all of this clamor. He gasped and stood for a moment in shock.

WAIT A SECOND, wait a second! I'm getting way ahead of myself. Let's go back to the beginning.

She held his petit hand tightly as she walked across the street.

"Now, whenever you cross the street, remember to look both ways." She informed her son in a caring yet stern way. He nodded and squeezed her hand even tighter. They eventually arrived at the curb, and they walked along the sidewalk in order to get to the park down the street. Little Kyoji had been begging his mother to take him to the park for several hours, and she eventually gave in and was walking him there. Her eyes wandered over to the sign above her head. It informed them that they were now entering the county park and warning that it was illegal to have a dog without a leash. Like anyone really owns a dog anymore, Rain thought. Kyoji smiled and ran into the park, startling his mother. He ran to greet some of he other children in the park. Rain's eyes strayed over to a small, worn out bench with paint that was peeling off from old age. She smiled sweetly and sat on it. Her mind raced back to a time from over 5 years ago. This was the very spot Domon had proposed to her. She sighed and sat down in a comfortable position, but before long, Kyoji came back to her wiping his eyes. Most of the kids were dragged away by their parents because a lot of people still were angry because Domon had lost the last Gundam Fight (and was being forced to train harder then ever). and they didn't want their children playing with Domon's own son. Kyoji frowned and hung his head low. He was only six, so he didn't understand why he didn't have many friends, or why so many people were so angry at his mommy or daddy. Rain frowned and took Kyoji's hand.

"No one around here wants to be my friend!"

"Don't worry about them, you don't need friends like that," Rain said thoughtfully. Kyoji sniffled and kicked a rock.

"It's not fair! Why don't they like me?"

"Oh honey, it's not you. Don't ever think that. Let's go and get some ice cream, okay?" Rain said, trying to slap a smile on her son's face. He nodded and held her hand. They walked out of the park, and many of the mothers and fathers in the park gave Rain dirty looks. Rain ignored them and she kept walking. Soon, they got home and hopped into a small sports car Rain had gotten from the government. Neo-Japan had been so incredibly prosperous in these last 10 years(Domon had won 2 Gundam Fights in a row AFTER Gundam Fight 13) that they gave very much to the Gundam Fighters and crewmember. Domon however had lost the last Gundam Fight and was being forced to train harder then ever. They drove away to the ice cream parlor, and Kyoji ran around the store in a flurry. Rain smiled. He always did love ice cream.

"Mommy, mommy, can I have chocolate? Pleeeease?" Kyoji said with a convincing grin. Rain nodded and they walked over to the counter.

"One chocolate cone, and one chocolate dipped, please!" Rain said. She was glad that Kyoji was happy again. Soon, they were sitting outside, enjoying the bright sunlight and cloudless sky. Rain licked at her ice cream carefully, as to not spill any or get her face dirty. But when she turned around, she saw that Kyoji was messily devouring his, getting ice cream everywhere. Rain sighed, stood, and got a tissue. She wiped of his face, and he giggled. They soon finished. Rain hopped into her car and Kyoji did as well. They sped back home, and Kyoji took a short nap. Meanwhile, Rain was sitting on the couch, looking at an old photograph in a gold frame. She smiled. It was a very old picture- it was a picture from right after the defeat of the DG, which seemed just like yesterday. Her eyes drooped and she frowned. Domon still wasn't back from his extensive training program with the Gundam. She had hoped that they could go out for dinner that night. She rarely saw him anymore-ever since the Government had warned him that many strong new fighters were participating the fight, he wasn't allowed to stop training. They said that he was growing too soft sitting around the house. But she smiled when she heard a knock on the door. She quickly stood and shuffled over. She gasped to see Domon standing there, bruised and drenched in sweat. A trail of blood was pouring from his mouth. Oh God, Rain thought.

"Oh, Domon! What happened?!" Rain questioned with a scared tone. Domon grumbled and brushed past her. She frowned and followed him. "What's the matter?"

"The system malfunctioned. A lot of the cockpit exploded, and I was hit by a lot a metal." Domon said grouchily. Rain frowned and sat him down. She took off his shirt to reveal large contusions(look in the dictionary!) and a bruised rib.

"Oh, Domon, look what happened! There's no way this could have been just an accident!" She said as she ran a finger over his ribs. He groaned. "We need to get you to a hospital; I can't heal it that well here," Rain said worriedly. Domon said that he just needed some rest, but Rain insisted that he went to the hospital with her. He eventually agreed, and she said she would be right back. "Kyoji? Kyoji, honey? We need to go somewhere; please hurry and get ready." Kyoji groggily woke up and dressed.

"What's wrong, momma?"

"You're daddy's hurt, and he needs to get to the hospital," Rain said. Kyoji asked if he was alright, and Rain nodded. He pulled on a shirt that was lying in a clump on the floor, and pulled on some shorts. He followed his mother into the living room, and he gasped when he saw his father.

"Daddy, daddy! Are you okay?" Kyoji said as he ran over to him. Domon wiped some of the blood of his mouth and nodded. He wished that the first time he saw his son in a week it would have been been a happier moment. Kyoji was about to squeeze his father when Rain pulled him away.

"Daddy's gunna be fine, just don't touch him for right now. I promise you can squeeze him all you want when he's done at the hospital." She turned to Domon."Let's go." She held out a hand to him. He took it and stood. But once he did, his hand raced to his stomach, then to his mouth. Blood seeped out between his fingers. Rain inhaled heavily and put a supporting arm around him. She looked down to a frightened Kyoji, and she decided that it would be best if she left him with Dr.Kasshu. She quickly picked up the phone and called him.

"Hello?Dr.Kasshu speaking,"

"It's me, Rain. Domon's been in an accident and I need you to take care of Kyoji,"

"Is Domon alright?"

"He's going to be fine, but there's no time to explain. Please take care of Kyoji when we're gone,"

"Alright, I'll come by and get him. You call me later." With that, Rain hung up the phone. Domon was washing off his mouth, and Rain helped him to the Lander. In a matter of seconds Dr.Kasshu was over and taking care of Kyoji. Rain drove the Core Lander with amazing speed to the nearest hospital.

***At Hospital***

"What happened here?" A nurse at the front counter asked when she saw the damaged Domon.

"He's been in an accident and needs serious help," Rain said answering her question.

"Right this way," the nurse answered. She led them to a room filled with frantic doctors running around in a frenzy. Soon, they got to a small private room with a large examining table. "Sit here. The doctor will be with you in a moment." Rain helped Domon to his appointed seat. He groaned and laid his back against the wall. Rain sat next to him. He sighed and draped an arm around her shoulder.

"Rain...after this," Domon paused and winced. "Let's go out for that dinner date like I promised." Rain smiled. Even when he is critically hurt, he thought of her. He certainly had changed from the stubborn fool he used to be (only a little bit though...;)) She lightly padded him on the back, and he closed his eyes. A doctor soon arrived and asked Rain to leave the room so that Domon could have privacy. Rain nodded and turned to Domon.

"You better be alright, or you'll have to deal with me afterwards, as well as the monster doctor's bill!" She said jokingly. She chuckled and said that she would be waiting for him. Domon smiled at those comforting words and a door close. The doctor helped Domon onto an examining table and pealed off his(Domon's) shirt. The doctor frowned and walked over to his desk. He opened a drawer(?) and pulled out a bottle that jingled with painkiller capsules. He threw it to Domon.

"Take two every 2 hours. It should dull the pain slowly, but effectively." The doctor paused. "Are you... Domon Kasshu?" Domon hesitantly nodded. "I thought you looked familiar. Hmm...." The doctor hummed. "You seem to be suffering many large bruises." 'Well no duh!' Domon thought. "Have you been coughing up blood? It looks like you should be suffering from slight internal bleeding."

"Yeah," Domon replied. As soon as he said that, a small clot of blood raced up his throat.(Eww!) Domon put a hand to his mouth and hobbled over to a nearby sink and spit.

"So, what happened?" The doctor asked.

"My Gundam-" He paused. Maybe he shouldn't tell him this. "I was hit by metal. Is there anything else you can do except give me these?" Domon asked as he held up the bottle.

"I can give you advice. Don't do your training or whatever it is you do for at least a week. And then just wait until the bruises clear up. Even then, take it easy. The bleeding should stop by tonight. Now, if you run out of painkillers, come back and we'll supply you with some more." The doctor answered. "Just tell the nurse that Bill said that it was fine." Domon sighed and nodded. The doctor gave him a pair of crutches, but Domon said he didn't need any. Soon enough, Domon was released. 'A lot of help that was!' he sighed to himself sarcastically. His eyes searched around until they found their target. Their eyes met.

"What did they say?" Rain asked anxiously as she walked up to him.

"They just gave me this stuff." Domon handed the painkiller bottle to her. "Oh, and they also told me that I..." Domon paused and sighed. "I should stop training for a while." Rain smiled.

"I completely agree." Rain said with a grin. Domon sighed and shrugged. "So, are you up to the challenge...of going out to dinner with Kyoji and I? He's been very anxious to see you all week," Rain questioned with a smile. Domon nodded and a grin was slapped messily on his face. He walked with a hidden limp all the way back to the Lander.

***At Gundam Hanger, After Dinner***

"Hmmm...." Rain murmured. She was digging through the burnt cockpit. Everything was black and melted from a wave of sudden heat. Domon looked around in horror at his once beautiful cockpit. Wires where sticking out everywhere, as well as jagged tidbits of glass. "Ouch!" Rain said as she pricked her finger on a sharp piece of metal. Domon shuffled over asked if she was alright, and she just waved it off. She dug around more to find what malfunction caused the explosion. 'This has never happened before...' Rain thought to herself. Her hand traced over a piece of unfamiliar metal. 'What is this?' She asked herself as she held it up to the light. She rubbed off some of the black to reveal a jumbled word with letters beside it.

"BB-ASA-2150" Is what it read. 'What does that mean?' Rain thought. "Domon, come and take a look at this," Rain commanded with a anxious tone. He frowned and walked over.

"What is it?" Domon asked. Rain bit her lip, trying to fit together what is what in her mind. She looked a bit closer, and hesitantly turned around.

"The Gundam didn't malfunction," Rain answered. Domon lifted an eyebrow. "This..." Rain paused. "...Is- or was- a bomb,"
