CHAPTER 4- TRUTH
Yvette ran to get the door. She peeked through the eyehole, "Hey Ash, can see you waiving." "So open up the door already, just let us stand out here!" "Hmm, do I really want.." "Just open the door!" Snickering, she slowly opened the door. "Hey Trowa, hi Catherin!" "Hello Yvette" replied Catherin. They made their way through the house into the living room. "Wufie, you here?" yelled Trowa. "Coming!" Wufie yelled back. "Oh, Wufie, Alex just called, they'll be here soon, same reason.." said Yvette. "Really? Oh-boy, I didn't expect this to happen..." "What?" said Ash and Yvette at the same time. "Uh," but Trowa had pulled him of to the side.
"You can't be serious Wufie." Trowa had pulled Wufie into his office and shut all doors and windows so they couldn't be heard. "What other way would there be? What other explanation is there?" "I, I don't know, but I didn't expect it to really happen." "Well Trowa, I didn't know either, but we have no other answer, and we still have to tell them." "I guess your right." A ringing of the doorbell alerted them of the arrival of Alex. "Comin'!" said Ash. She opened the door and let Alex, Noin, and Zex inside. "Hi!" Catherin said in her usual cheery voice. Wufie hadn't really got over the fact that both Noin and Zex were part of OZ before, but he wasn't to impolite. "Hello Zex and Noin." he said in a monotone voice. "I need to talk to all of you, we need to explain something's to you; Alex, Yvette, and Ash," Trowa said looking at them. They made their way to the office, where everything was closed, and one lamp was on, casting strange shadows on their faces.
"Alright," said Noin, "wonder what they have to talk about." "Well, I guess we'll find out later. Do you two want anything?" Catherin said. "No thanks" replied Zex and Noin. "Now, I'm not sure about this, but it seems that these dreams weren't just incidents." said Zex. "I agree." Noin said, nodding her head. "I'm going to go have some tea, anyone want any?" said Catherin, trying to change the subject. "I'll have some please." Noin said smiling at Catherin, "with sugar and cream, also. Thank you." "Still, I question what's going on." Zex said while tapping the arm of the chair he was sitting in. Noin added, "Hmm, I don't know either. Hopefully Trowa and Wufie can explain.."
"Alright, you three might want to sit down.." said Trowa with a sigh. "Take those seats over there," Wufie said motioning to some seats nearby. He and Trowa sat down in front of the three baffled girls. "But why only take us off to the side?" said Ash. "And why only you two seem to know," said Alex. "Hmm.. I'd say were going to hear about something we're really not expecting," said Yvette examining the way Wufie was looking around, "your way to edgy Wufie." "Your very observant, Heero," said Trowa. "Huh? That's what I." "Was called in your dream," Trowa said, finishing for Yvette. "And you would be called Duo, Ash. And Alex, you, Quatre," said Wufie. "How the hell.." started Ash, finished by Alex, "did you know?!?" Trowa looked over both of them, then his gaze fell upon Yvette. "Well, how do you think we knew?" he said. "M-me? Heck how would I kn.. Wait a sec, you can't be serious; that was just a dream." "That, that wasn't a dream, Yvette. That was a mere memory," Wufie said looking at her with his stern eyes. "No way.." said Ash, "she told me something like, *gulp* no, I have to be thinking of something else." "Nah, we must be mistaken, right?" Alex said looking at Trowa for some back up. He shook his head. "Let us explain." Wufie said in a slightly drifted voice.
"Fifteen years ago, Duo Maxwell, Heero Yuy, and Quatre Winner were called away on a mission. They had reported some trouble they were having, but said they would be fine. Trowa and I questioned why we weren't included on the mission. When it was sent, it was not signed, which made Heero suspicious. All three decided to accept. Even with how cautious Heero and Quatre was, Duo had his moments. They ran into small battles, but assured us that they were in need of no help. They check in every so often, giving new information, but not telling us what we needed if for. Then, during one battle, we had a small transmission in code 'Later'.
"We waited for other transmissions and sent other messages, trying to contact our lost comrades." At this point he stopped. Yvette knew that Wufie usually liked to do things on his own, without the others help. He wanted to prove that many others were to weak for battle. "Okay," she said slowly. He continued some more. "After two weeks, there was still no answer or even word. We went to search in the last location. There was nothing but a few scraps of metal, but only small pieces. They couldn't have self-detonated because there would be proof. The searches went on for three months, with no results of finding them. They had some how disappeared without a trace." At this Trowa broke in, seeing Wufie look at him.
"..It was a year after the incident that all three of you were taken in by the Dr.'s that built our Gundam's. You were only newborn's. They needed to have new replacement for their lost soldiers. They gave you to each of us, didn't matter what we thought, it was 'a mission that had to be complete', according to them. But Hilde died before you, Ash, were only three. Catherin and I took you in. Yvette, you were Wufie's responsibility." He then looked at Wufie and continued, "Alex, we asked Zex and Noin to take care of you, because we knew both of them had good experience in battle. We were supposed to raise you better then we had been trained, to become the ultimate soldiers, better then any perfect soldier. But in this we failed, because we grew to liking you as a family, not as some trainee. We felt that there was no need to put you through what we suffered. During this time, we neglected the acts that each doctor, especially Dr. J, wanted us to do. Obviously they got to you before we new, making sure even you had to finish you mission." He went quiet. The three girls stared at him with blank surprise, not only because of what he was saying, but they hadn't heard him talk this much before, he was usually VERY quiet, yet now..
Wufie continued, "Obviously, these dreams were some type of memory mixed with adjacent broken figures of some other past. There could be various ways they made this happen. Very clever to take past memories from people and place them with a child. Almost like reincarnation. The only thing we couldn't figure out was that they had chosen mere girls to take on a man's job." At that, Ash broke in, "what the hell do you mean by that WU- MAN!" She started laughing. A smile was on Yvette's face, while Alex was holding her stomach, trying to hold her laughter in. Trowa had a small smile creep up on his face. "You know, Duo use to always call him that." "URR! MAXWELL!" Wufie yelled. Ash immediately stopped, but couldn't help giggling. "Sorry Wufie, something that popped out of my mouth, really, I'm sorry," Ash apologized. Wufie tried to calm down, and continued, "erm, anyway, I guess because your age is getting close to that of ours when it happened, it's starting to affect you more. There's only one way to complete the mission. You have to go see Dr. J, he is the one with the most information."
