The New Pilots part 1
The Wing Zero and the Messenger
By Writer5867
This story takes place as if Endless Waltz never happened.
It is now around the next spring. After the destruction of the battleship Libra.

Joseph ran through the many hallways of the grand mansion looking for Relina. He had a message for her and he still couldn't find her. This was all he was. A delivery boy running messages, food and all other things in between the different ambassadors and third world country leaders. The only person who ever treated him like a normal person was Miss Relina. He finally found out that she was in her room. So he walked there and knocked on the door. She politely as always called to him through the door.
"Who is it?" she called.
"It's me Miss Relina. I have a message from Ambassador Ferdinand," Joseph called back.
"Come in."
Joseph opened the door and walked through. Two pairs of eyes stared at him. The relaxed stare of Relina and the harsh and fierce glare of the always-serious Heero Yuy greeted him as he walked through the door. He had the feeling that he had interrupted something.
"I'm sorry to disturb you," Joseph said.
"Don't worry about it Joseph," Relina said taking the letter from him.
"If you'll excuse me Miss Relina. Do you need anything?"
"Uh I'll have some tea. Would you like anything Heero?"
"I'll have a glass of water," Heero said.
"I'll be back in a couple minutes," Joseph said and bowed slightly.
"Oh and Joseph?" Relina said before he left.
"Yes," Joseph said turning around to face her.
"I'll be returning to the Sank Kingdom tomorrow. I was wondering if you would like to enroll in the academy there."
"I'll think about it Miss Relina."
He turned and walked out.

Joseph was walking the street later in the still cold air. He thought about Relina and her protector Heero. He knew that Heero had been the one that saved the world in that Wing Zero. Joseph thought about why he had accepted the invitation to enroll in the academy.
'Did I do it just to be close to her?' he thought.
Joseph finally reached the place where he was going. A small comedy club. He entered and showed the security guard his tickets. He was going to see the "God of Death" perform stand up.
After about two hours he walked out of the club and looked at his watch. The time was 11:00 o'clock at night. Time to turn in. He continued walking and walked into a young man and woman.
"Sorry," he said and turned to face him.
"No, bother," he said.
Joseph got a good look at him. It was that guy Quatre another gundam pilot. He was walking with Dorothy Catalonia.
"Aren't you Quatre Winner?" Joseph asked him.
"You've heard of me?" he said.
"I've heard of both of you. Didn't she stab you or something on the Libra?"
"Yes, but we put the past behind us," Dorothy said and laughed.
"Well, that makes three gundam pilots that I've seen today." Joseph mumbled under his breath and said goodbye to the two.
Joseph continued walking. Suddenly, a blast hit near him. Joseph fell backwards into an alley. He bumped into a large truck. There was also a large tarp over the back of it. Joseph lifted it up and saw the foot of a mobile suit. He yanked the tarp all the way off and found that it was the Wing Zero.
"Heero's gundam," Joseph whispered.
Joseph looked back overhead and saw that at least twelve Virgos were flying toward the palace.
"Relina," Joseph whispered and climbed into the gundam.
He turned it on and hoped he wouldn't go insane. Joseph took off and yanked the laser sword out of the Zero's shoulder. The Virgos turned to face him. Joseph shot by them and destroyed three of the twelve.
"I can't use the buster rifle or else I'll destroy the palace and all those people," Joseph thought to himself.
He fired off the shoulder vulcans and destroyed four more. Then the Zero system kicked in fully. The whole cockpit glowed with a yellow light. Joseph saw the last five Virgos destroying the palace with Relina in it.
"What was that?" Joseph said aloud.
Joseph finished off the last five with the beam sword. He landed the gundam outside the palace. Relina stood next to Heero staring up at it.
"Relina, she'd never talk to me again if she saw me in this thing," Joseph said and took off again.
He landed the gundam back in the alley and put it back on the truck. After covering it with the tarp he walked back to the palace.
"Oh Joseph! I'm so glad you're okay. We were attacked by mobile dolls and I was worried you had gotten hurt. Someone saved us in the Wing Zero," Relina said.
"It was probably Heero," Joseph said still walking.
"Heero was standing next to me the whole time."
"Must have been a pretty skilled pilot."
Joseph said good night to Relina and walked to his room. He stared at the ceiling and thought about the Wing Zero.
