"Evelina I-"

Before Quatre could say anything the door slammed open and there stood Duo and Trowa.

"We've got a problem!"


"Who are you?" Demanded Heero as him and Wufei stood outside the safe house.

Wufei had been walking back from getting supplies for the safe house when he was almost jumped by the two. The woman and man where both scared and looked ready to kill Wufei at any given chance. Wufei had put up a fight against the woman causing her to fall to the ground on more than one occasion. The man hadn't even attempted to attack Wufei. When Heero had heard the noises coming from outside he came out to inspect while he ordered Trowa and Duo to stay inside in case they needed a quick escape or back up.

The woman only laughed at Heero's demand. She seemed completely unfazed by the boys fighting them. The scars all over her only freaked Heero out. Heero turned his attention to the man and held his gun out at him. The man was unfazed by the threat and smirked at the two boys.

"Can Quatre Raberba Winner come out to play?" The man mocked. Heero and Wufei growled low in their throats at the man's question. Why on earth would he want Quatre? Did they know Quatre was a Gundam Pilot? If they did this would only put Quatre in an awkward place after the war had ended.

"I'm sure OZ would want to see the last Winner dead." He then laughed like a mad man. The woman snickered under her breath as Heero and Wufei took a stance ready to fight them.

"You both really think you can take us, don't you?" Asked the woman as she folded her arms and smirked at the two young teenagers. "Quatre is ours for the taking. And once we're done we'll come back for the rest of you."

"You're not getting anyone," Wufei growled as he clenched his fists tightly.

"You'll never get at Quatre!" Heero said as he pointed his gun at the man's chest and fired.

Trowa and Duo hid in the front room looking out the window at the fight that was beginning to start. Surely Heero and Wufei could take them. There was no problem of anything happening to the two Gundam pilots. Trowa and Duo listened intuitively to the conversation happening right there. Duo gasped as he heard the two strangers mention about Quatre and OZ. Duo and Trowa turned to each other and both read in the other's eyes what they were thinking.

"We need to get Quatre out of here," said Duo laying out the bases of a plan. Trowa nodded and turned back to the window. He watched a little longer at the fight was preparing to happen.

"You'll never get at Quatre!" Heero yelled as he shot at the man.

Trowa blinked for not even a second and what he saw almost caused him to show emotion. The man which had been standing ten feet away from Heero was now two feet in front of Heero and with no injury from the bullet. Not even a scratch! The man then grabbed Heero and threw him backwards towards the house. Heero did a nose dive in to the ground about three feet away from the safe house. Trowa's eyes widened slightly as he saw the stronger pilot get knocked to the ground so easily. Wufei's voice calling out Heero's voice rang in his ears. Trowa turned his attention to see Wufei charging at the woman and began a martial arts battle.

"Trowa, let's go!" Whispered Duo with urgency. Trowa nodded and followed the self-proclaimed God of Death out of the room and up the stairs to save their friend.


Evelina frowned as she saw Trowa and Duo standing in the door way. Trouble! What could they possibly mean? What could possibly be the problem? Nothing is meant to happen at all. Is it? I don't remember Teacher saying anything about it. She thought to herself.

"What do you mean?" Asked Quatre turning to his best friends. Duo ran over to Quatre and grabbed his wrist, before pulling him slightly towards himself.

"Quatre they said they want you... Let's go!" Duo warned trying to keep his blond friend safe from danger.

Then it started to register in Evelina's head, what Duo was on about. Could OZ still be after Quatre? If they knew that a Winner was still alive, who knows what they'd do to Quatre. OZ was trying to get rid of all of the Winner family and they would have figured out my now that the heir is still alive! Could that have been who was firing at Quatre earlier? No... OZ would have fired at all of them, not just Quatre.

"Evelina..." Evelina turned to the source of the voice. She looked towards Quatre who had spoken. "We have to get out of here!"

Evelina couldn't believe how much Quatre trusted her. They didn't even know whose side she was on and yet he still trusted her. Evelina had never met someone who had trusted other's so openly before. She had heard that Quatre wore his heart on his sleeve but never thought that was true for anyone. No one could be like that, no in Evelina's experience anyway. Evelina was beginning to like Quatre a lot even if the others didn't believe her she knew she could rely on Quatre. It was a shame she would have to put the others and especially Quatre in so much trouble.

"They must have found out where we were hiding." Said Duo as he pulled Quatre out of the room. Trowa and Evelina followed the blond and braided Gundam pilots out of the room and down the stairs. All the time they were running Evelina tried to think who on earth would have gone after Quatre.

"Where are Heero and Wufei?" She yelled as she ran down the stairs. They must be in trouble as well if they're not here... or maybe they're fighting off whoever's after Quatre... I hope their alright.

"They went to fight against the two people outside." Said Trowa as he opened the back door letting everyone run out first before him.

"They said they work for OZ but they didn't wear the uniform." Explained Duo as he pulled Quatre into a bush. Trowa and Evelina then dived in after them. Evelina watched as Duo and Trowa treated Quatre like a little boy. It seemed pretty cute but Quatre was a Gundam Pilot, he didn't need anyone to look after him. 'Worked for OZ but didn't wear the uniform.' Could it be them?

"Wait!" Evelina whispered turning to the three boys. "You said they weren't wearing OZ uniform's right?"

All three boys turned to Evelina as if she were crazy. Each one frowned at her; she didn't expect anything less from them. She was questioning them, when they should have been questioning Evelina. Duo crawled up to her and looked her in the eyes. Trying to read me is not the easiest thing to do, Duo. But I can read you. You were a mask that hides the terror and tragedy of your past. You're not touchable my torture but you are by your petty and emotions for others. You might just be more venerable than Quatre. Duo sighed as if he knew it was unreasonable to just sit there and wait for something to happen. Or to even think about blaming the girl for everything that was happening.

"Yeah! The woman had a scar going across her arms and the guy had a scar over his left eye. It looked as if they had been hurt in a battle."

Evelina gasped as she heard the explanation of who the people attacking her were. I know them! Wufei's in danger! "No..." She whispered. Evelina jumped up out of the bush and ran back to the front of the safe house. Her heart beat rapidly in her chest; she didn't believe her rib cage could contain her heart for very much longer. The adrenalin and fear of a Gundam pilot getting killed broke her heart. Duo and Quatre called out for her to come back to them. Even thou she heard them it didn't register in her mind to go back and stay with them. A Gundam Pilot was in danger and she had to stop it from happening. None of the Gundam pilots could afford to die this early in the war. Evelina ran as fast as her legs could take her. Her hair blew in the artificial wind that kept the people of the colonies alive. Evelina jumped the small fence and saw a most dreadful sight.


Quatre watched as Evelina ran to help Heero and Wufei in battle. Quatre wanted to go and help but he was trapped where he was by Trowa and Duo, and Quatre knew well enough not to get in to a fight with either boys. Quatre then looked down at Duo's belt which held his gun. Only something was missing... Something that Duo would need in a fight. Quatre knew who had taken it. It didn't take a genius to figure that out.

"Uh, Duo?" Asked Quatre as both boys turned to the younger blond who was sitting quietly. "Where's your gun?"

Duo blinked a few times before thinking about what the blond had said. Duo then went to reach for his gun only to find it was missing. Duo then turned to the direction in which Evelina had gone. "That bitch must have taken it!"

"She's on our side Duo..." Said Trowa as he watched out for enemies.

"I still don't trust her that much." Duo stated folding his arms. Then a gunshot was heard, causing Duo and Quatre to jump slightly. Both turned to each other and feared for what was happening. "For all we know she's a double agent. Don't forget we were compromised when we started."

"I hope Heero and Wufei are alright." Whispered Quatre as he brought he knees up to rest his chin on them.

So do I, Quat, thought Trowa.


There were bullets covering the concrete floor and traces of blood dotted around the place. Four guns were scattered all over the floor as well. Evelina turned to the front of the safe house and saw small pieces of glasses shattered all over the ground. Evelina looked up to the window and saw blood covering the glass. She concentrated on the room and saw as someone's head popped up from the window and jumped through it. It was Heero! Heero's shirt was ripped and looked as if someone had pulled it at the shoulder showing off his broad chest. His arms and legs were covered in scratches and nicks. In Heero's hair were small shards of glass. His skin was already starting to bruise in some places. Heero's chest was rising and falling rather quickly proving that he was out of breath.

Evelina turned to look at Heero's opponent. It was a tall man probably in his early to mid twenties. He had a broad chest, muscular arms and legs. The guy was clad in brown walking boots, spandex shorts and a black spandex short sleeve shirt. The sleeves looked like they were going to brake if he flexed his muscles. His skin was dark showing he'd been in the sun a lot and was obviously not from the colonies. His hair was ebony black and fell to his shoulders. It would seem he took good care with his hair from how clean it looked. His eyes were a piercing green, sharp and he looked like a wild animal... Trowa's eyes seemed like a house kittens compared to his eyes. Over the guys eye was a lightning scare that sunk into his skin.

Evelina's attention turned as she heard a grunt. Wufei was in a battle with a woman with black hair pulled back in to a high pony tail leaving a few strands to fall to frame her face. Her eyes were a reddish brown that looked like blood had mixed in with mud. Her skin was paler than Quatre's, as if she had never seen the sun before. She wore a spandex tank top which covered half of her stomach; and spandex shorts covered by a spandex skirt covered her upper legs. Her feet were clad in long black boots. Her arms were covered in lightning bolt scars, which were wrapped around Wufei's body. She held his body tight to hers, as if when she let go he's fall or disappear from her. Wufei was still as if in a state of shock and could not move. The woman whispered something in to Wufei's ear, before moving one arm behind her back and grabbing something. She then raised her hand that held a dagger up in the air ready to plunge it in to Wufei's back. Wufei however made no movement to stop the woman. Evelina's eyes widened as the words see you in Hell left the woman's lips.

Evelina didn't have time to think. She just went on instinct and reached into her belt and pulled out a gun and aimed it at the dagger. She then fired hitting the dagger out of the woman's hand causing her to scream in a high pitched voice. The woman then jumped back five feet away from Wufei. Evelina however ran over to Wufei and caught him before he collapsed to the floor. However the unexpected weight of Wufei caused Evelina to fall to the floor as well. Evelina then held the gun up at the woman as she held Wufei tightly.

Heero watched as Evelina fell to the floor with Wufei in her arms. Heero watched as Evelina pointed the gun at the woman, however the man that Heero had been battling jumped in the way of the gun, defending the woman from another shot. Heero growled as he walked over and stood behind Evelina. Heero watched silently as Evelina glared at the man as if she had seen him before. Evelina then lowered the gun and wrapped her arm around Wufei's body. How could the girl be so protective over Wufei if she had just meat him? It made no sense. It was starting to get lighter in the colonies, showing that it was day time and that many people would be waking up soon. They had to end this battle soon before any civilians got hurt.

"Who are you!" Demanded Evelina as she continued to glare at the man.

The man however only smirked at the girl before standing up straight and folding his arms. "Who I am... is none of your concern Agent of History! But my name? I go by the name of Pride!"

Evelina growled low so only Heero could hear it. "Why the Hell do you want Quatre?" Asked Evelina as she started to glare more at the two enemies that stood in front of them.

The woman laughed at the girl as if it was the dullest question to ask anyone. "You baka!" She called out. "Haven't you figured it out yet?"

"SHUT UP!" Evelina shouted.

"Leave it, Envy!" Called out the man holding out his arm as if to stop the woman from speaking. "Let's go... See you soon, Storm!"

And with all said and done they ran off faster than any normal human ever could. Heero had begun to wonder if those two where even Human at all! But if they weren't Human then what were they. Heero then turned and looked down at the young girl holding his comrade.

"Wufei... Wufei, come on you gotta get up!" She called to the Asian boy in her arms. Heero then kneeled down next to her and felt Wufei's pulse. Wufei was alive, but his pulse was very weak. Heero didn't know if Wufei would last much longer.

"What did they do to him, Heero?" Asked Evelina as she kept her gaze on Wufei's face, as if she looked away she would miss him move.

"That woman injected him with a clear substance." Heero stated, as he watched the girls eyes fill up with tears.

She nodded and turned to Heero. Heero could see that the girl was upset and worried about what had happened. Heero could also see that she was mad. Mad at herself for letting this happen. Heero didn't understand her. No one could have seen this happen and yet she blamed herself. Heero couldn't understand how a girl who had just meat Wufei could care for him so much more than any normal friend would. Heero started to wonder if the girl maybe did know Wufei in the past but neither were letting up that they did.

"Heero, I need you to take Wufei to a shuttle and get it ready to launch..." Evelina said as tears poured down her face.

Heero frowned. "And why should I?" He asked coldly. Even though he knew from his mentor that she was on their side he still didn't trust her.

Evelina sniffled. "Because right now... Only Doctor J can help Wufei now!" She stated as she whipped her tears away from her eyes. Heero nodded and took Wufei into his arms. Both then stood up and looked at each other. She sighed, "I don't want to see another die because I wasn't fast enough." She lowered her head and Heero's eyes softened at her.

"Tell the other's then to go to the shuttle the mobile suits are in." Heero commanded the young girl as she whipped her eyes even more. She then nodded before running off to the back of the safe house while Heero ran with Wufei in his arms to the shuttle.


Quatre and Duo leaned on each other as they waited for signs of any of their comrades to come. Trowa stayed on the lookout waiting for any sight of them. After the gun shot Quatre and Duo had gone completely silent and leaned against each other as if it was to give each other support. Trowa couldn't help but feel sorry for the two. They did not belong in a war, and Trowa had come to realise that over the few months they had spent together. Neither were trained soldiers like himself, Heero and Wufei were. Quatre and Duo were the most gentle and happiest of the Gundam Pilots and didn't deserve the burden of being in the war. They deserved to be away from the front line and any battle. Trowa sighed softly so the other boys couldn't hear them. Then the sound of footsteps caught Trowa's attention. Trowa watched as a figure came into view. It was Evelina! She looked as if she had been crying. Her eyes were red and her face was pail. Trowa's eyes softened as he saw the girl call out to them saying it was safe and that they needed to go with her immediately.

This had caught Quatre and Duo's attention. Both rose on to their knees and looked at the girl. Their eye's softened when they saw Evelina's tear stained face. Something had happened and they all knew that. All of them rose from their hiding place and walked over to her. Each boy could tell that she was trying to hold back tears. Something was defiantly not alright.

"What's wrong?" Asked Quatre in a soothing voice.

"In the battle... Heero and Wufei were both injured... They injected something into Wufei, and we don't know what it is..." Evelina started to explain as her voice started to crack. "We have to take him to Dr. J now! Heero said meet him at the shuttle where the mobile suits are..."

All the boys looked at each other and nodded. They knew it was really serious if they were going to one of their mentors. They then turned back to the young girl and saw a tear run down her check. Duo walked up to her feeling that he owed her, to be a little kind to her and whipped the tears away.

"Hey, come on... Heero's waiting for us." Said Duo with a smile. "And the sooner we get them to Dr. J the sooner they get better, right?"

Evelina smiled and nodded her head. "Yes..." She said weakly and followed them to the shuttle.


Duo, Trowa, Quatre and Evelina reached the shuttle that held the Gundams and saw it was ready to launch. Each one raced in to see the state of their comrades. Quatre and Duo gasped as they saw Heero's body covered in scratches and nicks. After a long argument on who would fly the thing it ended up with Duo flying the shuttle and Quatre co-piloting, while Trowa and Evelina took care of Heero and Wufei. Heero had placed Wufei on a small bed with a white sheet over him. Not long after takeoff Wufei has started to shiver and sweat violently and he also had a fever. Trowa had asked Evelina to keep her eye on Wufei while Trowa bandaged Heero up.

Evelina soaked a cloth in water and rinsed it out and folded it before placing it on Wufei's forehead. Evelina then pulled Wufei's hair out of it's neat ponytail so it would release some stress from Wufei's head. Evelina then stood on a small stool next to Wufei's chair and watched the boy fight back whatever was in their body. Evelina then held his hand so she could comfort him slightly.

"Hey Wufei... Look you may not trust me at the moment, but the others are taking you to Dr. J so he can take whatever was injected into your body out. But until we get there you have to hold on." Evelina started to talk to the Asian Gundam Pilot. Tears then started to fall from her eyes. "This went so wrong! My mission was to protect all of you, but I couldn't do a damn thing when it came to it! I let you and Heero get hurt! I failed my mission and I deserve death... I'm sorry I failed, I really am!" The tears then started to flow freely from her eyes. I messed up! I completely messed up!


Heero and Trowa listened to the girl through the door. Both moved away from the door when they heard her started to cry. Both boys folded their arms as they looked at each other. Now they knew why she was there. Why she had gone through so much trouble to see them. Her mission was to make sure those people that attacked them didn't. She had failed that, and her mission's were just like theirs... If you failed it meant death! Would her teacher be like theirs and not bother with it as long as everything got sorted out in the end?

"So she was assigned to protect us." Heero spoke as he leaned on the wall.

Trowa nodded. "Meaning she knew those people were going to attack us." Trowa spoke. "However when I told her that we were being attacked she seemed to have no clue!"

Heero frowned at Trowa's statement and thought about the girl. She barely knew them and she cried when Wufei got injured; she let Quatre touch her when they first met even though Heero had threatened to kill her with a gun. Nothing about her made sense. Then there was the association that she was with; History Spies! Obviously Dr. J and the other mentors knew about it but why had only Dr. J answered them when they asked about it? It made no sense.

"Let's just get to Dr. J before we make any assumptions about who's side she's really on." Heero stated looking up at the taller youth.

Trowa nodded at Heero. "Maybe you should get some rest." Said Trowa as he unfolded his arms. "You look as if you could use the rest."

Heero nodded and walked back to his own cabin that he shared with Duo. Trowa watched as the injured youth went to rest. Trowa took one more glance at the room in which held Evelina and Wufei. Trowa trusted Evelina. When he tried to read her he could see that her feelings were genuine and that she wanted to help them. But she was hiding something from them, Trowa knew that. And the fact that she knew about those people attacking them only made his suspicions worse. Trowa knew that something was going wrong here but would not say anything. What Trowa had learnt on the battle field was not to judge a book by its cover. And that with anything you should try and read people and understand them as quickly as possible, but this girl was nothing but a puzzle.

Trowa then turned and left for the cockpit where Duo and Quatre were. It would take them eight hours to get to Dr. J... Hopefully he could lift the shadows of this mystery that surrounded the Gundam Pilots.


"Keep his pulse up!"

"Don't lose him!"

"Jenny the medication isn't strong enough!"

Those voices... Who are they? Where am I? Why can't I move? Why can't I see? Where are Yuy, Barton, Winner and Maxwell? Where could they be?

"Come on Wufei! Please just hang on!" That voice. I know it! That onna's... Storm! What's going on? Why can't I do anything but hear? What's going on? What happened in the battle?

"Wufei!" Maxwell?

"Stop boys you can't go in there!" Who is that?

"He's our friend!" Winner?

"Please Jenny you gotta let us go in there!" Storm?

"Evelina you should know better! Go to Ichigo! He takes care of any injuries so go!"

"But-"

"No buts!"


Okay chapter two done and dusted.
