Chapter one, broken
"Li?" Said a red-haired girl as she walked into the isolation-room of the Rosegarden institute for the mentally- and emotionally unstable or nut-house as the youth called it. The girl named Li was sitting in a corner hugging one of the soft white walls, but gave no response.
"It's me Remy." The girl tried, sitting down in front of her friend. Again no response.
"God what did that guy do to you? Don't worry, I'm gonna get you out of here." Remy said. Li looked at her but gave no sign of having heard her. Remy looked at the door, there was no one outside.
'Good mister shrink's gone.'
"Li? I've got a letter for you. It's from Fei. Wanna know what he wrote today?" She said. Li still didn't react, so Remy pulled out a notebook page and started reading.
Dear Li,
I've missed you so much after you left us, it almost broke my heart. When the doctors found a way for us to go to your world we were all very happy to take the chance even if it meant we might be stuck in your world. However when we got here we learned from your friend Remy that 5 years had passed since you left our world and that they put you in the 'nuthouse' as duo call it. It hurts to learn that you are no longer the strong willed girl full of life and dreams that I once knew, but I promised Remy we'll do everything within our power to help you. They will pay for doing this to you!
I'll see you soon and don't forget, I love you always my Lily.
Wufei.
When she finished Remy looked at her friend. The mahogany-haired teen stared at her, as if she was trying to remember something. Just for a moment she smiled, then the lifeless glance returned. The doctor walked in.
"It's time to leave Miss Tate. Lilliana needs her rest now." He said coldly, as if he didn't care. Remy nodded and hugged her friend.
"Well I've got to go now. Want me to keep the letter for you?" She asked the girl. A light nod and another smile. Remy cried a little.
" Okay I'll put it with the rest." Remy said as she got up and left.
1 hour later, Tate residence.
Remy locked the door and put her coat and scarf away. In the living-room her guests were sleeping on their make-shift beds. Remy sighed and went upstairs. Unaware of the shadow that got up and followed her. Remy let herself fall on the bed and cried softly. It hurt to see her best friend and sister like this. When Li first disappeared, Remy had cried and wished everyday for her to come back and when she did, May and Ray, Li's adoptive parents refused to let Remy see her friend.
2 years long Remy secretly went to Li at night, then things changed. Li was send to Rosegarden's, because her adoptive parent's said she was delirious and needed treatment. Of course the doctor didn't mind he just injected her everyday with his drugs. Remy was sure they were trying to kill Li. That was 3 years ago now. The once happy girl had become no more than an empty shell of who she was. Her once so beautiful, vivid face became hollow and empty. Intense, all seeing, brilliant, deep-brown eyes filled with joy and life were gone, replaced with a dull empty glance. All the will to live was gone. Her long-time best friend was gone. She was there in the isolation cell, but her spirit had been broken.
Remy pulled out a photo from years ago. She and Li were at the gundam wing theme park (I made this up; it's mine so get lost. Nothing worth to sue me for here!). Li laughed and held up the Nataku-model she had built herself and Remy held a Deathscythe-model. They were 11 there, she and Li had both broken the high score on the battle-simulator and got their pictures taken with the actors from the show that they got to chose. Remy had chosen the actor playing Duo Maxwell and Li had chosen for the one who played Wufei Chang. Remy cried softly as she realised just how much she missed those days, when they would go to the park and play gundam wing with their friends from the neighbourhood.
Flashback.
"Okay who's going to be who?" Joe asked.
"Trowa." Xander said doing a few back flips.
"Cathy!" Said Amber, Xander's sister.
"I'm Dorothy!" Cindy said.
"I'm Duo." Mickey yelled as he ran up to them with his self-made scythe.
"I'll be Quatre and my brother's will be the maquanacs!" Joseph said.
"I'm the lighting count." Said Jake as he walked up to the group with a bucket on his head with 2 holes in it.
"Good, I'm Heero as always. That leaves Lady Une, Sally, Hilde, Relena and Wufei and of course the bad guys and the extra's." Joe said imitating Heero's voice. More children joined in and soon all positions were filled.
"Joe wait, we're not to late are we?" Lilliana asked as she and Remy joined the kids already in the park.
"Nope, but all the good parts are taken. So what'll it be today ladies extra members of the preventors or…" Joe said, leaving the end open for any and all suggestions.
"How about we'll be spies of an independent organisation helping the guys?" Remy suggested.
"Cool, let's do that. Everyone who agrees say I." Joe said.
"I!" It sounded in unison. Soon the park was filled with laughter and sounds of war and the children played till late in the evening. Then their parents came to get them for diner and after diner they returned and played till deep in the night.
End flashback.
"We used to believe it was real and for us it was, we had so much fun than. When you disappeared it hurt, but you came back and you told me that they were real that they really existed and I believed you immediately. We always dreamed of what it might be like if they were here, but when they came you were gone. Stuck in Rosegarden's broken and empty. Where are you Li, we need you." Remy told the girl in the picture.
"We'll get her out of there, we'll get her back. I promise, they will pay for what they did and I never break a promise." Duo whispered as he sat down behind Remy and pulled her onto his lap.
"Thanks. I could use some cheering up about now." Remy said as she leaned back in Duo's arms.
Cute ne? let me know what you think! Hope you like it! Review! PLEASE!
