In All Her Glory
By: Reily Yuy
A/n: Tada! The long a waited chapter two. This will hopefully answer all of your questions about what happened to Relina. I must say though, six reviews so far. I love the attention.
Jessica: What attention? It's only six reviews.
Me: Oh hush. Six or less I don't care as long as people tell me how they feel about the story.
Jessica: Sure. And what about the short chapters?
Me: So my chapters have been a little short. Big deal. I am hoping that they will get longer though. And I hope this is long enough. And now a new section. A list of all of the people who have reviewed so far. And they are: SelenC., Lady Earth Goddess, Fire Blade, PyroKittie, tenshi-chikyuu, and my anonymous reviewer. I wish you would have left me something to call you at least. Well that's it for my Reviewer's Section. Now all I need is to have more people review!
Jessica: I lost Fei.
Me: How?
Jessica: Good question. He's probably glomping Duo.
Me: I don't want to know. Now here is chapter two.
Chapter two- Of Gundam Pilots and Princesses
-Sanq Kingdom-Tuesday, December 3 A.C 198 10:00 am-
Rini Cosmos "Peacecraft" ran down the empty hallway in the old Peacecraft Academy. Laughing and giggling, Rini turned the corner leading to her mom's office. She was glad to finally be on earth. It was boring on the Moon with only the Earth to look at.
A few months ago, Relina Peacecraft had died when the shuttle from the L-5 Colony was shot down into the ocean. It was then Serenity realized that she would have to fight. So, using the Crystal's power, Serenity disguised herself as Relina's lost twin. And the Media bought it. Later this week, Serenity and Rini would attend a meeting announcing themselves to the world.
Rini giggled again. Then Rini would have lots of people to play with.
"What's so funny, Hunny?" Serenity asked as she finished typing the roster for the school, which would later be called as St. Gabriel's Academy.
"Nothing mommy. Its just that everyone actually buys that you are Relina's sister," Rini replied climbing onto Serenity's lap.
"Hush now. That's not nice. They just need a pillar to lead them. And it was about time I began to take my role as Queen here on Earth anyway."
"I'm sorry mommy."
"Its okay, my little Rabbit. Just don't ever say that again."
Rini went to reply, but she was cut off by Serenity tickling her.
"Mommy. stop. that. t-tickles!" Rini squealed between laughs.
"I know," Serenity replied as she continued to tickle her daughter.
-L-2 Preventers Office-Tuesday, December 3 A.C 198 12:00 pm -
Heero Yuy walked into the main Preventers office. Lady Une had called him saying that she was calling a conference with the former pilots and he was needed. Heero grunted, he had the feeling that this meeting was going to turn into a mission. Out side of Lady Une's office, Heero could hear Duo's loud voice.
"Come on. It's a great idea."
"He won't go for it. You know that Duo," Quatre's voice floated through the door,
"Well it was an idea."
Now Heero was curious. 'Time to break it up though,' Heero thought, opening the door.
Duo quickly turned his head to the opening door.
"Heero! You came," Duo exclaimed.
"Hn," was all Heero said.
Duo, Wufei, Trowa and Quatre cringed. Since the death of Relina, Heero had turned back into the Perfect Soldier. They still weren't use to his change. Just then Lady Une walked in.
"Oh good, you're all here. Then let's get started," she began, sitting down at her desk.
"Why are we here, Onna?" Wufei asked.
"I wanted to talk to you about Relina's sister," Lady Une replied.
"What about her?" Quatre asked.
"How much do you know?" Trowa questioned.
"I was told to tell you all about her. And as for your question, Trowa, I don't know enough. That is why I asked Heero to come," Lady Une answered with a small smile to Heero.
"Hn. Fine, here's the information," Heero replied in his usual monotone voice. Heero then passed out five sheets of papers with all the information on Relina's sister, Serenity Peacecraft.
"Wow," Duo whistled. "If I didn't love Fei-chan, I would so ask her out."
Wufei didn't know whether to take that as a compliment or not. But seeing as Duo was his lover, Wufei figured it was a compliment.
"Now that you have all of the information on Serenity Peacecraft. I was told to inform you that you have a new mission," Lady Une said as the "boys" stared at her.
'Just as I thought,' Heero sighed. 'Its turned into a mission.'
"What's the mission?" Trowa asked.
"Later this week Serenity and her daughter will be attending a meeting to announce themselves to all of the Earth as well as the Colonies. Your mission, should you choose to accept, is to go to the meeting and protect Serenity," Lady Une explained.
"Go and protect some weak onna? Why?" Wufei asked.
"She is taking over Relina's role of Queen of Earth. We must ensure that no harm will come to her. That's why," Replied Lady Une.
All of the other pilots looked to Heero.
"Mission Accepted."
-Sanq Kingdom-Wednesday, December 4 A.C 198 9:00 am-
"I see. So will they be around after the meeting?" Serenity asked Lady Une over the phone. "Oh, so you plan to have them stay. Should I enroll them into the school? Okay. Seniors? They are that young? Oh my."
Serenity took note of the classes they should take.
"No, no. I'm the same age. Yes, I see. Okay, now is there any way I can meet them before Friday? Really? Only one? Well I suppose that's better than none. By tomorrow? That would be good," Serenity continued to take notes, so she wouldn't forget. "And who shall I be expecting? A Mr. Heero Yuy."
Rini giggled interrupting Serenity.
"Hush Rini, I'm on the phone. Oh, sorry Lady Une. Yes it seems Rini is in a giggle mood. Yes, thank you. Tomorrow at around. 3 pm? Okay, thank you again. Goodbye." Serenity hung up the phone and glared at her daughter. "And what was so funny? I was hoping you were done giggling after yesterday."
"Its just that you said that so polite," Rini giggled again.
"Well I have to be polite. Its what a good Princess is. Now run and play. Mommy has work to do."
"Yes ma'am."
-l-2 Shuttle Port-Wednesday, December 4 A.C 198 9:00 am-
Heero Yuy walked onto the shuttle that would take him to Earth. More precisely, the Sanq Kingdom. He was the one voted to go and meet Serenity before the meeting, although he wasn't too pleased. Heero would do anything for a mission.
Sitting in his seat, Heero waited for the shuttle to take off. He pulled out his laptop and began hacking into St. Gabriel's Academy, once known as the Peacecraft Academy, only to find most of his information had been put into the computer already. Now all he had to do was wait for the boring ride to come to an end. Closing his eyes, Heero decided to get some well needed sleep.
-Sang Kingdom Shuttle Port-Wednesday, December 4 A.C 198 2:00 pm-
"This is boring. Why does it take so long?"
"Rini. That is not proper behavior. You must act like a young. Is that clear?" Serenity asked, reprimanding her daughter
"Sorry mommy. But I'm bored and I forgot Luna P," Rini apologized turning her attention to the gate.
Just then a man walked through the gate and towards Rini and Serenity. Rini immediately ran over to the man.
"Hi! You must be Mr. Heero. I'm Rini Peacecraft. My mommy's been waiting for you," Rini announced giggling.
Heero looked over to where Rini was pointing. His eyes rested on a young woman about his age. She had silver hair put up into heart-shaped buns. Her eyes were closed and she wore a black skirt and a men's, white dress shirt that was unbuttoned enough to show off her stomach. Rini grinned slyly and dragged Heero over to Serenity.
"Mommy, Mr. Heero is here," Rini cried bringing Serenity attention.
"Thank you my little Rabbit. Why don't you let mommy and Mr. Heero talk before we leave." Serenity's eyes remained closed.
"Okay." With the Rini left.
Once the little blonde child was gone Serenity opened her eyes revealing beautiful silver eyes with blue and black specks. Serenity looked Heero over.
He looked to be about seventeen with messy, chocolate brown hair and cold, prussian blue eyes. He wore black skater pants, a black t-shirt, and black boots.
'Not bad,' Serenity thought. 'Really cute.'
"It's a pleasure to meet you Mr. Yuy," Serenity spoke to Heero drawing his attention away from her eyes.
"Call me Heero," he grunted.
"All right then Heero. Shall we go?"
"Hn."
Serenity giggled and Heero fought down a blush.
"Rini!" Serenity called. "We're leaving."
"Coming!" Rini yelled running towards her mother.
When Rini made it to the two people, the three figures walked off to the limo that would take them to St. Gabriel's Academy.
-L-2 Shuttle Port-Friday, December 6 A.C 198 11:30 am-
Two days after Heero had left for Sanq Kingdom, Wufei (Wu-bubbles[1]), Duo, Quatre, and Trowa boarded a shuttle to Sanq as well. By the time the shuttle would land, the four pilots would have roughly two hours to get ready and to get everything settled. Hopefully that would be enough time. Heero would pick them up at the shuttle port and take them to St. Gabriel's to get ready. Boy was this going to be fun.
-Sanq Kingdom-Heero's Dorm-Friday, December 6 A.C 198 2:00 pm-
Rini watched as Heero finished getting ready. He had two and a half hours till he had to pick up his friends and decided to blow off some time by taking Rini to the park. Also by taking Rini to the park, it would allow Serenity sometime to finish the schedules. Which needed to be finished before the meeting at 7:00 pm.
"Aren't you ready yet? You take longer than mommy," Rini whined.
Heero smirked, yet another quality about Serenity that would be useful.
"I'm done so quit complaining, Squirt," Heero shot back.
"Hey I'm not a Squirt. That was mean."
"That wasn't mean. Calling you "Shrimp" would be mean," Heero argued back like a three year old.
Rini giggled, "You know what? Mommy told me that Lady Une said you wouldn't talk much because of Auntie Relina's death. So how come you talk lots around me?"
"Good question Squirt," Heero smirked. "Remind me to tell you later."
With that Heero flung a pillow at Rini and ran out the door. Rini growled and chased after the former Pilot of Wing.
-Sanq Kingdom-Principles Office-Friday, December 6 A.C 198 2:00 pm-
Serenity bit back a growl This was harder than she thought. Just a few more schedules and then she was done. But she was running low on classes.
"Grrrr.. This is so not cool," Serenity hissed to herself. "Well at least I have the Pilots where they need to be."
She sighed. She was so glad Heero had volunteered to take Rini out of the building so she could work. Serenity smiled, Heero seemed to be keeping Rini out of the way so she could work.
Rubbing her temples, Serenity got up and paced the room. The teachers wouldn't be here till Saturday and school didn't start until Monday morning. The students were starting to arrive and everything was beginning to take its toll.
She could do this. This was nothing. Fighting Chaos was harder. Serenity took a deep breath.
'Okay. Get it together girl.'
She took another deep breath. Sitting back down behind her desk, Serenity went back to work.
-Sang Kingdom Shuttle Port-Friday, December 6 A.C 198 4:30 pm-
Rini and Heero walked through the Shuttle Port making their way to Gate 36. Rini was glad Heero didn't make her go home. She wanted to meet "Mr. Heero's" friends. Without thinking Rini grabbed Heero's hand and walked with her hand in his.
As they reached the gate, people came walking by and Rini held on tighter to Heero's hand in hopes of not getting lost in the crowd. Then a loud, happy-go-lucky voice floated above the noise.
"Geez. I felt like a cow in a herd. Too many people."
Heero smirked and Rini figured he knew the voice. Four figures came into view. The first one was a blonde guy with blue eyes, much like Rini's. He wore blue, baggy pants, a white wife beater and blue Vans. He was holding hands with a guy with brown hair covering one of his green eyes. He wore black skater pants, a green shirt and black Vans.
Two more people came into Rini's view, but she only paid attention to the first one. He had long, mahogany colored hair put into a braid and deep indigo eyes that were almost purple. He wore all black and black boots. Rini grinned, she liked this guy already. Letting go of Heero's hand, the five-year-old girl ran over to the guy with the braid.
"Hiya! My name's Rini."
Duo blinked, "Hey there kid. My names Duo Maxwell."
"You must be a friend of Mr. Heero," Rini giggled. "Will you be my big brother?"
Duo laughed at her statement when Heero spoke, "I don't think your mom would like it if you just asked a strange person to be your brother."
"But he isn't a strange person, Mr. Heero. He's your friend," Rini replied innocently.
"Yea! I'm not a strange person, Mr. Heero. I'm your friend," Duo copied. Then he grinned, "Sure kid. I'll be your big brother. Besides we'll be watching over you and your mom for awhile."
"Yay! I have a big brother!" Rini cried as she made her way to stand by Duo. But instead of standing to his right, Rini decided to stand to Duo's left. Where Wufei happened to be standing.
"What the hell do you think your doing, Chibi Onna?" Wufei growled.
Finally Rini noticed the last person. He had black eyes and black hair pulled into, what she thought was, an extremely tight ponytail. He wore white, gi pants and a blue wife beater.
"I'm standing next to my big brother," Rini replied sweetly.
"That's my boyfriend. And I was here first," Wufei argued.
"But he's my big brother," Rini whined.
"I don't care. Move Chibi Onna."
"No."
"Yes."
"No."
"Yes."
"No."
Heero turned his attention away from the five-year-old blonde and the seventeen-year-old Chinese Pilot who, at the moment, was behaving like a five-year-old to Quatre and Trowa.
"Its good to see you again Heero," said Quatre.
"It has only been two day. You worry to much Quatre," Heero responded.
"You speak," Trowa pointed out.
"Only mostly around Rini," Heero explained.
"She's adorable. How old is she anyway?" asked Quatre.
Heero looked at Rini. She had her hair in pigtail as always. She wore a pair of pink overalls, a white shirt with a pink heart on it, and white sneakers.
"She's only five. And she has no father," Heero's voice softened as well as his hard eyes.
"Big brother! Your boyfriend is being mean!" Rini yelled.
Duo turned red with embarrassment, "Fei stop arguing with Rini. Rini don't pester Fei."
"All right big brother," Rini sighed.
Heero stifled a laugh, "Now that we have that settled. Let's get going."
-Sanq Kingdom-Serenity's Dorm-Friday, December 6 A.C 198 6:00 pm-
"Mommy you look so pretty!" Rini gushed.
"Thank you baby. You look pretty too," Serenity praised.
"A lot of people are going to see us huh?"
"Yes. That's why we have to look our best."
"And we look our best right mommy?"
"Right baby."
Serenity went back to fixing her hair. She was trying to decide if she was going to wear it in her usual heart-shaped buns or do something else with her hair. After putting a lot of thought into it, Serenity decided to go with her usual style.
"There I'm all done. What do you think?"
"I think Mr. Heero is going to like it," Rini responded in a hushed whisper.
And Rini wasn't just referring to Serenity's hair. Serenity was breaking the usual diplomat way of dressing. She decided on wearing an updated version of her mother's (Queen Serenity) old dress. It was the same style but it had a gold strip around the top instead of white and the dress was white instead of lavender. Also instead of a crescent moon in the middle of the gold strip, a seven-pointed star took its place.
Serenity blushed at Rini's comment. He daughter could be so perceptive at times.
"Okay you. Time to go."
"Okay."
-Sanq Kingdom-Conference Hall-Friday, December 6 A.C 198 6:00 pm-
"Is everything set?" asked Quatre.
"Yup. No one is going to be able to ruin this meeting. Right Fei-chan?" Duo replied.
"Whatever Maxwell," Wufei huffed.
Quatre stifled a laugh. Trowa and Heero walked up behind the pilots.
"Everything is clear Koi ([2])," Trowa stated.
"Good. Heero you should double check with security and then wait for Miss. Serenity to arrive," Quatre half-ordered.
"Hn," was all Heero said before walking off.
"You know. I think he likes her," Duo grinned.
"I think your right," Quatre responded.
-Sanq Kingdom-Conference Hall-Friday, December 6 A.C 198 6:30 pm-
A white limo pulled up to the Conference Hall. A man with long white hair and golden eyes stepped out of the driver's side and opened the back door. Out stepped a blonde child wearing a white dress with gold sparkles on it. Then a tall woman in a gold and white dress stepped out. One would think she was a Goddess.
And one person did. A seventeen-year-old man. Of course due to his training, Heero would never admit what he thought of Serenity. But the thoughts he kept to himself were nice.
"Mr. Heero! Where's my big brother? I want momma to meet him," Rini babbled, looking up at Heero.
Serenity's eyes widened as Heero let out a deep chuckle. It was the first time ever that Serenity had seen or heard Heero laugh. Serenity smiled.
"You should laugh more often Mr. Yuy," Serenity cooed.
Heero slowly stopped laughing and blushed. "I thought I told you to call me Heero," he grunted in response.
"You did. But this is a diplomat meeting. And so, against my wishes, formalities are a must," Serenity exclaimed.
Heero smirked, "Fine then. Shall we go Miss. Peacecraft?"
Serenity nodded and took a hold of Rini's hand. Together the three made their way inside.
-Sanq Kingdom-Conference Hall-Friday, December 6 A.C 198 6:55 pm-
"It is a pleasure to meet you Miss. Peacecraft."
"The pleasure is mine Quatre," Serenity looked over at Trowa. "And this must be Trowa. How long have you two been going together?"
Quatre and Trowa both blushed.
"Since the end of the first War," Trowa answered.
"I see. I wish you two luck. May your happiness be guarded through out eternity," Serenity smiled mysteriously.
It was then that all five pilots saw her in a different light. She appeared to be older beyond her years. Her silver eyes held more wisdom and pain that no one her age should know.
"Mommy! I found my big brother!" Rini yelled dragging Duo behind her.
Serenity smirked losing her "old age" look, "Ah. So you are the young man that has become my daughter's "big brother." Its nice to finally meet you Duo Maxwell."
Duo gulped nervously, "Uh.hi?"
"No need to be afraid. I think it's rather sweet of you," Serenity replied calmly. "And where is your lover?"
Duo blushed and Rini answered, "He's over there sulking cause I took Duo away." Rini smiled impishly at Wufei.
Noticing Serenity, Wufei merely nodded a hello. Serenity returned the gesture.
Just then Lt. Noin walked behind the curtains, "Miss. Serenity. Its time for you and Rini to make the announcement."
"Thank you Noin. Gentlemen excuse us please," Serenity spoke as she and Rini made their way on stage.
"Take your places," Heero ordered.
A/n: Wow! 8 pages and I still have notes and the author's note to do. Geez.. I hope this is long enough. Chapter three should be up tomorrow. Okay now for my notes.
1. Now I bet you are curious as to where that came from. Wu-bubbles is a nickname that Jessi came up with.
Jessi: Not really. Duo came up with it. But you weren't supposed to post it!
Me: Fei'll get over it. I thought it was funny. And now for.
2. Koi means love in Japanese. And I will warn you now. This does support guy/guy romance and maybe, possibly girl/girl romance. I'm sorry if it offends you, but I feel that everyone should have a lover same sex or not.
Now that that is settled. I believe I am finished here. Like I said above. Chapter three will be posted tomorrow, since it's finished but not typed up yet. Fair warning. It is a short chapter cause it deals with the meeting only. That's it for now. And please continue to review.
Ja ne, Reily Yuy
A/n: Tada! The long a waited chapter two. This will hopefully answer all of your questions about what happened to Relina. I must say though, six reviews so far. I love the attention.
Jessica: What attention? It's only six reviews.
Me: Oh hush. Six or less I don't care as long as people tell me how they feel about the story.
Jessica: Sure. And what about the short chapters?
Me: So my chapters have been a little short. Big deal. I am hoping that they will get longer though. And I hope this is long enough. And now a new section. A list of all of the people who have reviewed so far. And they are: SelenC., Lady Earth Goddess, Fire Blade, PyroKittie, tenshi-chikyuu, and my anonymous reviewer. I wish you would have left me something to call you at least. Well that's it for my Reviewer's Section. Now all I need is to have more people review!
Jessica: I lost Fei.
Me: How?
Jessica: Good question. He's probably glomping Duo.
Me: I don't want to know. Now here is chapter two.
Chapter two- Of Gundam Pilots and Princesses
-Sanq Kingdom-Tuesday, December 3 A.C 198 10:00 am-
Rini Cosmos "Peacecraft" ran down the empty hallway in the old Peacecraft Academy. Laughing and giggling, Rini turned the corner leading to her mom's office. She was glad to finally be on earth. It was boring on the Moon with only the Earth to look at.

"Its okay, my little Rabbit. Just don't ever say that again."
Rini went to reply, but she was cut off by Serenity tickling her.
"Mommy. stop. that. t-tickles!" Rini squealed between laughs.
"I know," Serenity replied as she continued to tickle her daughter.

"Go and protect some weak onna? Why?" Wufei asked.
"She is taking over Relina's role of Queen of Earth. We must ensure that no harm will come to her. That's why," Replied Lady Une.
All of the other pilots looked to Heero.
"Mission Accepted."
-Sanq Kingdom-Wednesday, December 4 A.C 198 9:00 am-
"I see. So will they be around after the meeting?" Serenity asked Lady Une over the phone. "Oh, so you plan to have them stay. Should I enroll them into the school? Okay. Seniors? They are that young? Oh my."
Serenity took note of the classes they should take.
"No, no. I'm the same age. Yes, I see. Okay, now is there any way I can meet them before Friday? Really? Only one? Well I suppose that's better than none. By tomorrow? That would be good," Serenity continued to take notes, so she wouldn't forget. "And who shall I be expecting? A Mr. Heero Yuy."
Rini giggled interrupting Serenity.
"Hush Rini, I'm on the phone. Oh, sorry Lady Une. Yes it seems Rini is in a giggle mood. Yes, thank you. Tomorrow at around. 3 pm? Okay, thank you again. Goodbye." Serenity hung up the phone and glared at her daughter. "And what was so funny? I was hoping you were done giggling after yesterday."
"Its just that you said that so polite," Rini giggled again.
"Well I have to be polite. Its what a good Princess is. Now run and play. Mommy has work to do."
"Yes ma'am."
-l-2 Shuttle Port-Wednesday, December 4 A.C 198 9:00 am-
Heero Yuy walked onto the shuttle that would take him to Earth. More precisely, the Sanq Kingdom. He was the one voted to go and meet Serenity before the meeting, although he wasn't too pleased. Heero would do anything for a mission.
Sitting in his seat, Heero waited for the shuttle to take off.

"Call me Heero," he grunted.
"All right then Heero. Shall we go?"
"Hn."
Serenity giggled and Heero fought down a blush.
"Rini!" Serenity called. "We're leaving."
"Coming!" Rini yelled running towards her mother.
When Rini made it to the two people, the three figures walked off to the limo that would take them to St. Gabriel's Academy.
-L-2 Shuttle Port-Friday, December 6 A.C 198 11:30 am-
Two days after Heero had left for Sanq Kingdom, Wufei (Wu-bubbles[1]), Duo, Quatre, and Trowa boarded a shuttle to Sanq as well.

Heero smirked, yet another quality about Serenity that would be useful.
"I'm done so quit complaining, Squirt," Heero shot back.
"Hey I'm not a Squirt. That was mean."
"That wasn't mean. Calling you "Shrimp" would be mean," Heero argued back like a three year old.
Rini giggled, "You know what? Mommy told me that Lady Une said you wouldn't talk much because of Auntie Relina's death. So how come you talk lots around me?"
"Good question Squirt," Heero smirked. "Remind me to tell you later."
With that Heero flung a pillow at Rini and ran out the door. Rini growled and chased after the former Pilot of Wing.
-Sanq Kingdom-Principles Office-Friday, December 6 A.C 198 2:00 pm-
Serenity bit back a growl This was harder than she thought. Just a few more schedules and then she was done. But she was running low on classes.
"Grrrr.. This is so not cool," Serenity hissed to herself. "Well at least I have the Pilots where they need to be."
She sighed. She was so glad Heero had volunteered to take Rini out of the building so she could work. Serenity smiled, Heero seemed to be keeping Rini out of the way so she could work.
Rubbing her temples, Serenity got up and paced the room. The teachers wouldn't be here till Saturday and school didn't start until Monday morning. The students were starting to arrive and everything was beginning to take its toll.
She could do this. This was nothing. Fighting Chaos was harder. Serenity took a deep breath.
'Okay. Get it together girl.'
She took another deep breath. Sitting back down behind her desk, Serenity went back to work.
-Sang Kingdom Shuttle Port-Friday, December 6 A.C 198 4:30 pm-
Rini and Heero walked through the Shuttle Port making their way to Gate 36. Rini was glad Heero didn't make her go home. She wanted to meet "Mr. Heero's" friends. Without thinking Rini grabbed Heero's hand and walked with her hand in his.
As they reached the gate, people came walking by and Rini held on tighter to Heero's hand in hopes of not getting lost in the crowd. Then a loud, happy-go-lucky voice floated above the noise.
"Geez. I felt like a cow in a herd. Too many people."
Heero smirked and Rini figured he knew the voice. Four figures came into view. The first one was a blonde guy with blue eyes, much like Rini's. He wore blue, baggy pants, a white wife beater and blue Vans. He was holding hands with a guy with brown hair covering one of his green eyes. He wore black skater pants, a green shirt and black Vans.
Two more people came into Rini's view, but she only paid attention to the first one. He had long, mahogany colored hair put into a braid and deep indigo eyes that were almost purple. He wore all black and black boots. Rini grinned, she liked this guy already. Letting go of Heero's hand, the five-year-old girl ran over to the guy with the braid.
"Hiya! My name's Rini."
Duo blinked, "Hey there kid. My names Duo Maxwell."
"You must be a friend of Mr. Heero," Rini giggled. "Will you be my big brother?"
Duo laughed at her statement when Heero spoke, "I don't think your mom would like it if you just asked a strange person to be your brother."
"But he isn't a strange person, Mr. Heero. He's your friend," Rini replied innocently.
"Yea! I'm not a strange person, Mr. Heero. I'm your friend," Duo copied. Then he grinned, "Sure kid. I'll be your big brother. Besides we'll be watching over you and your mom for awhile."
"Yay! I have a big brother!" Rini cried as she made her way to stand by Duo. But instead of standing to his right, Rini decided to stand to Duo's left. Where Wufei happened to be standing.
"What the hell do you think your doing, Chibi Onna?" Wufei growled.
Finally Rini noticed the last person. He had black eyes and black hair pulled into, what she thought was, an extremely tight ponytail. He wore white, gi pants and a blue wife beater.
"I'm standing next to my big brother," Rini replied sweetly.
"That's my boyfriend. And I was here first," Wufei argued.
"But he's my big brother," Rini whined.
"I don't care. Move Chibi Onna."
"No."
"Yes."
"No."
"Yes."
"No."
Heero turned his attention away from the five-year-old blonde and the seventeen-year-old Chinese Pilot who, at the moment, was behaving like a five-year-old to Quatre and Trowa.
"Its good to see you again Heero," said Quatre.
"It has only been two day. You worry to much Quatre," Heero responded.
"You speak," Trowa pointed out.
"Only mostly around Rini," Heero explained.
"She's adorable. How old is she anyway?" asked Quatre.
Heero looked at Rini. She had her hair in pigtail as always. She wore a pair of pink overalls, a white shirt with a pink heart on it, and white sneakers.
"She's only five. And she has no father," Heero's voice softened as well as his hard eyes.
"Big brother! Your boyfriend is being mean!" Rini yelled.
Duo turned red with embarrassment, "Fei stop arguing with Rini. Rini don't pester Fei."
"All right big brother," Rini sighed.
Heero stifled a laugh, "Now that we have that settled. Let's get going."
-Sanq Kingdom-Serenity's Dorm-Friday, December 6 A.C 198 6:00 pm-
"Mommy you look so pretty!" Rini gushed.
"Thank you baby. You look pretty too," Serenity praised.
"A lot of people are going to see us huh?"
"Yes. That's why we have to look our best."
"And we look our best right mommy?"
"Right baby."
Serenity went back to fixing her hair. She was trying to decide if she was going to wear it in her usual heart-shaped buns or do something else with her hair. After putting a lot of thought into it, Serenity decided to go with her usual style.
"There I'm all done. What do you think?"
"I think Mr. Heero is going to like it," Rini responded in a hushed whisper.
And Rini wasn't just referring to Serenity's hair. Serenity was breaking the usual diplomat way of dressing. She decided on wearing an updated version of her mother's (Queen Serenity) old dress. It was the same style but it had a gold strip around the top instead of white and the dress was white instead of lavender. Also instead of a crescent moon in the middle of the gold strip, a seven-pointed star took its place.
Serenity blushed at Rini's comment. He daughter could be so perceptive at times.
"Okay you. Time to go."
"Okay."
-Sanq Kingdom-Conference Hall-Friday, December 6 A.C 198 6:00 pm-
"Is everything set?" asked Quatre.
"Yup. No one is going to be able to ruin this meeting. Right Fei-chan?" Duo replied.
"Whatever Maxwell," Wufei huffed.
Quatre stifled a laugh. Trowa and Heero walked up behind the pilots.
"Everything is clear Koi ([2])," Trowa stated.
"Good. Heero you should double check with security and then wait for Miss. Serenity to arrive," Quatre half-ordered.
"Hn," was all Heero said before walking off.
"You know. I think he likes her," Duo grinned.
"I think your right," Quatre responded.
-Sanq Kingdom-Conference Hall-Friday, December 6 A.C 198 6:30 pm-
A white limo pulled up to the Conference Hall. A man with long white hair and golden eyes stepped out of the driver's side and opened the back door. Out stepped a blonde child wearing a white dress with gold sparkles on it. Then a tall woman in a gold and white dress stepped out. One would think she was a Goddess.
And one person did. A seventeen-year-old man. Of course due to his training, Heero would never admit what he thought of Serenity. But the thoughts he kept to himself were nice.
"Mr. Heero! Where's my big brother? I want momma to meet him," Rini babbled, looking up at Heero.
Serenity's eyes widened as Heero let out a deep chuckle. It was the first time ever that Serenity had seen or heard Heero laugh. Serenity smiled.
"You should laugh more often Mr. Yuy," Serenity cooed.
Heero slowly stopped laughing and blushed. "I thought I told you to call me Heero," he grunted in response.
"You did. But this is a diplomat meeting. And so, against my wishes, formalities are a must," Serenity exclaimed.
Heero smirked, "Fine then. Shall we go Miss. Peacecraft?"
Serenity nodded and took a hold of Rini's hand. Together the three made their way inside.
-Sanq Kingdom-Conference Hall-Friday, December 6 A.C 198 6:55 pm-
"It is a pleasure to meet you Miss. Peacecraft."
"The pleasure is mine Quatre," Serenity looked over at Trowa. "And this must be Trowa. How long have you two been going together?"
Quatre and Trowa both blushed.
"Since the end of the first War," Trowa answered.
"I see. I wish you two luck. May your happiness be guarded through out eternity," Serenity smiled mysteriously.
It was then that all five pilots saw her in a different light. She appeared to be older beyond her years. Her silver eyes held more wisdom and pain that no one her age should know.
"Mommy! I found my big brother!" Rini yelled dragging Duo behind her.
Serenity smirked losing her "old age" look, "Ah. So you are the young man that has become my daughter's "big brother." Its nice to finally meet you Duo Maxwell."
Duo gulped nervously, "Uh.hi?"
"No need to be afraid. I think it's rather sweet of you," Serenity replied calmly. "And where is your lover?"
Duo blushed and Rini answered, "He's over there sulking cause I took Duo away." Rini smiled impishly at Wufei.
Noticing Serenity, Wufei merely nodded a hello. Serenity returned the gesture.
Just then Lt. Noin walked behind the curtains, "Miss. Serenity. Its time for you and Rini to make the announcement."
"Thank you Noin. Gentlemen excuse us please," Serenity spoke as she and Rini made their way on stage.
"Take your places," Heero ordered.
A/n: Wow! 8 pages and I still have notes and the author's note to do. Geez.. I hope this is long enough. Chapter three should be up tomorrow. Okay now for my notes.
1. Now I bet you are curious as to where that came from. Wu-bubbles is a nickname that Jessi came up with.
Jessi: Not really. Duo came up with it. But you weren't supposed to post it!
Me: Fei'll get over it. I thought it was funny. And now for.
2. Koi means love in Japanese. And I will warn you now. This does support guy/guy romance and maybe, possibly girl/girl romance. I'm sorry if it offends you, but I feel that everyone should have a lover same sex or not.
Now that that is settled. I believe I am finished here. Like I said above. Chapter three will be posted tomorrow, since it's finished but not typed up yet. Fair warning. It is a short chapter cause it deals with the meeting only. That's it for now. And please continue to review.
Ja ne, Reily Yuy
