part 4
Duo looked over at Trowa. "What are you talking about?" Duo asked Trowa. "You know that
Quatre's dead."
"Don't worry about it." Trowa said, "Get in the car, let's go." Trowa said getting into the car.
"So where are we going?" Duo asked.
"Where do you want to go?" Trowa asked.
"I'm not really sure. Nowhere really."
"You can't stay here."
"Fine, take me back to Relena's."
"Okay." Trowa started the car and he began to drive off.
Meanwhile, Kyna was walking around the house. She had stopped crying, she was much to
fascinated by the house. She found wonderful things everywhere she went in the house. There were ton's of
rooms, each one a little different, meant for different things it seemed.
There was a game room (you know, with things like pool and stuff), a room that seemed to be a
music room (judging by all the instruments in it), a few bedrooms, an office room, a banquet hall, and
many, many other rooms.
Kyna seemed to be able to open all the doors. All but one, she couldn't figure out why, maybe
Trowa had forgotten to give her a key. But she didn't worry about it. She would ask Trowa next time she
spoke to him.
There were many pictures around Quatre's house, of which, Kyna figured, were of his family. She
had never met Quatre's family.
I wonder if they knew about me? Kyna thought, And I wonder if they know that he's... dead. At this
thought Kyna began to cry.
As Trowa and Duo drove home Duo thought. I wonder what Trowa meant. Oh well, he's to
stubborn, I'd never get it out of him if I tried. Duo looked over at Trowa, and sighed. Oh well, maybe he's
just wishing that Quatre was still alive, like Kyna. Doubt it.
Many weeks past, Trowa and Duo hadn't said a thing about what Trowa had said the day they left
Kyna, and Kyna still hadn't been able to open the one door. Not even Trowa could help her.
Trowa stayed around with Relena, Wufei disappeared, as did Heero, and Duo stayed with Hildie
on the Earth. Kyna, sat around Quatre's house, trying to find things to do.
One day as she was on the internet she ran into Duo, of all people, in a chat room. The reason she
began to talk to Duo (before knowing it was him), was because of his nickname; The god of death, a little
obvious isn't it.
Kyna seeing the name decided to talk to this person, it might prove to be interesting. She clicked
on the name and typed:
Hi, would you like to chat with me?
The answer came soon. Sure. The conversation continued.
Thanks, I was getting bored having nobody to talk to.
No problem.
Where did you get your name from?
It's my nickname, well at least it's what I call myself. What with your
nickname, Lost My Love. Kind of weird.
It's true, I did lose my love. It was a while ago, but I still miss him.
I have a friend who just lost the one she loved recently too. I feel sorry for
her.
Well I know how she feels. Oh well, I know I'll get over my Quatre, some day.
"Quatre?" Duo said looking at the screen, "No way, Kyna?"
Kyna?
Who are you?
Kyna, it's me, Duo. Thus my nickname.
"No way, Duo?" Kyna said to herself.
Where are you Duo?
I'm with Hildie. I must admit that I've been kind of bored though.
Same here. It's so lonely here, there's no one to talk to, and I don't have anything to
do, and this house is so big.
Would you like me to come visit you?
Oh, Duo, that would be wonderful. I would love for you to come visit me.
Great, I'll come down right now. I'll get off of the computer and come
right over.
That'll be great.
Okay, I'll see you in a little while, bye for now.
Bye.
With that, Duo signed off and began to drive to Kyna's house. Kyna stayed on line talking to a
couple other people while she waited for Duo to come. While she was talking to one of her on-line friends,
they brought up the subject of school. It was then that Kyna realized, that she would have to finish her
schooling.
She only had one more year, and she didn't want to go back to Relena's institute. So that left her
with only one option, she would have to go to a public school. She had gone to a public school before,
when she was in elementary. But since she had gone into Jr. high, she had been at Relena's school. But she
sighed, she wanted, and needed, to get her diploma, then she could be lazy.
A ring of the loud door bell, broke Kyna out of her thought. She got up and walked to the front
door. She opened the door, and there stood Duo, as she had expected. She let him in.
"Hi." she said.
"Hey." Duo said.
"I have to go turn off the computer, I'll be right back. You can go sit in the living room. It's right
down that way." Kyna said pointing to her left.
"Okay." Duo said. He walked in the direction that Kyna was pointing. Kyna ran back up the stairs
into the office, once there she said good-bye to all the people she was talking to, and turned off the
computer after logging off the internet. She walked back down stairs and into the living room. Where Duo
sat waiting.
"Okay, sorry about that. So how have you been?" Kyna asked sitting down next to Duo.
"I've been good, and you look much better than before. But before we speak anymore, I want to
give you something." Duo said. He stood up and pulled a piece of paper out of his pocket. He handed it to
Kyna. It said:
????
?
???????????
?
???
?
?
?????????????????????????????????????????????
??????
Kyna looked at the paper in puzzlement. And then at Duo. "Duo, what does this say?" she asked.
"You have to figure it out." Duo said.
"Okay, but how?" Kyna asked still puzzled.
"If you don't figure it out within a couple days, then I'll give you a hint. But try to figure it out on
your own." Duo said smiling.
"Right." Kyna said still looking at the paper puzzled, "Oh, would you like something to drink or
eat?" she asked realizing she hadn't offered anything.
"No, I'm fine."
"So, what have you been doing lately?"
"Not much really. I've mainly just been hanging out with Hildie and her cousin. Which, if you ask
me, isn't very fun. So after a while I just started bumming around the house."
"Sounds like me. I'm always bumming around the house. This house is so huge, there are so many
things to do. But I'm never really in the mood to do any of them."
"That's to bad."
"I've been able to get into every room, except one. I'm not sure what's in it. But it seems like a
huge room. Would you like a tour of the house?"
"Sure, I've always wondered what was in every one of these rooms."
"Well there are about ten empty bedrooms." Kyna said standing up, "And there are five
bathrooms, two game rooms, one office, the one I can't get into, a music room, and about five others, that
are probably just sitting rooms. And then of course you have the banquet hall, and kitchen. So there are
about twenty-eight rooms, including the banquet hall, kitchen, and my room. Oh, and outside there's a
swimming pool, a courtyard, a volley ball court, a basketball court, and a tennis court. And a locker room
type thing with everything you'd need for each of those games. And of course there is a garden, but I don't
think you'll be very interested in that."
"Wow." Duo said also standing. The two walked around the house, Duo was amazed, especial
when they went into the game rooms. One room, was all electronic game things, you know, play stations,
game boys, Nintendo 64's, every game system ever invented. There was even a computer with nothing but
games on it.
The other game room, had things like ping pong, pool, table hockey, and a lot of other games.
"Wow, I would love to live here." Duo said with wide eyes.
Kyna laughed, "Would you like to go outside?"
"Sure." They went down the stairs, and out the back door. "Jeez!"
Kyna smiled and looked at Duo, "It's good to have someone to talk to. So, what would you like to
do?"
"I don't know, there are so many things to do. What would you like to do?"
"I've done them all pretty much. So, I'll let you decide."
"Well, I would say lets go swimming, but I don't have a swimming suit with me."
"No problem. Do you remember the locker room I told you about. It has ton's of extra swimming
suits."
"Cool, lead the way." Kyna walked towards a building that was away from the main house and
unlocked the door.
"Here it is." Kyna wasn't kidding, there were tons of things in there. A basket full of volleyballs, a
basket full of basketballs, and a basket full of tennis balls. There were all kinds of things you could use in
the pool, five showers off in a far corner, some changing rooms, and bathrooms, lockers, and suits for every
sport that he had out on the court yard, and, suits and swords for fencing. And a couple storing closets.
Kyna walked over to a closet and opened it. Inside were tons of swimming shorts for guys. Then
she walked to another closet, which had towels in it. "Here you go Duo, chose the one you like most that
fits, and change. I'm going to go grab my swimming suit. I'll meet you in the pool." She left the building
and walked into the house. She went up to her room and changed into her two piece swim suit.
She walked out to the yard and saw Duo sitting on the edge of the pool. She then walked into the
"locker room" and grabbed two towels, one for her, and one for Duo. And then walked out to the pool.
Wow, I thought she was pretty before. She's even prettier in a bikini. Duo thought when he saw
Kyna.
"Here's a towel for you Duo, where do you want me to put it?"
"Any where, I don't really care."
"I'll put it here then 'kay."
"Okay, now come on, let's swim."
"Okay, okay. I'm coming." Kyna set the towels down, and walked over to Duo. "I'm going to jump
of the diving board."
"Ya know, that sounds like fun." Duo said as he got up and followed Kyna to the diving board.
Kyna got on the board and did a perfect dive into the water, making not even one ripple. She swam to the
opposite side of the pool and then came up out of the water.
"Your turn." she said to Duo.
"Okay, get ready." he got on the board ran and yelled, "Geronimo." right before he did a cannon
ball into the pool. The splash he made was huge. It went all the way to the other side of the pool where
Kyna was.
Duo came out of the water right where he had landed. Kyna swam over to him. "You are so weird
Duo." she giggled.
"You don't know the half of it."
Kyna just laughed. Duo looked at her and smiled. I've never heard her laugh before. Oh man, why
did I have to fall in love with you right after Quatre died? Duo thought. Just then he was hit in the face with
some water. He wiped off his face and saw Kyna disappear under the water. Duo dove under the water and
went after her.
When he caught up to her he grabbed her foot and she turned around. They both went up to the
surface to get some air and as soon as they did, Duo splashed Kyna.
"Hey." Kyna said playfully.
"Gotcha." Duo laughed.
"Oh yeah, take this." Kyna said as she splashed him back. The two continued to splash each other
for a little while, until Kyna went under the water as Duo wiped his eyes after she splashed him. Once
underwater she grabbed Duo's leg and made him go under the water. Then she swam off.
Duo went back up to the surface to get some air and saw Kyna on the opposite side of the pool. He
then took a deep breath and went under the water, Kyna seeing Duo go under water did the same. They met
almost in the middle of the pool. Duo then looked at her and smiled. He past her and went to the deep end
of the pool where Kyna had recently been. Kyna followed him. Once at the deep end Duo and Kyna went
to the surface to get some air. And then Duo once again went under the water.
Kyna didn't trust him so she too, went under the water. When she went under, she saw Duo
treading under the water staying in one spot. Kyna began to do the same thing. Duo then swam closer to
her. He smiled and then leaned forward and kissed her.
Kyna was surprised, she hadn't really expected Duo to do something like that. She then pushed
him away and went to the surface. She took a deep breath and noticed that she was shaking a little.
"I'm sorry Kyna, I couldn't help myself." Duo said as soon as he came out of the water.
"It's okay, really." Kyna said. She swam to the side of the pool and sat on the ledge.
Duo swam over to her. "I am so sorry." Duo said once again.
"It's okay Duo, really. You just startled me."
"You're shaking."
"I'll be fine, you just scared me, that's all."
"Sorry."
"Will you quit saying that."
"Sorry. Uh, oops."
Kyna laughed, "You are very strange indeed Duo Maxwell." Duo smiled suspiciously. "Duo don't
you dare." Kyna said looking at the smile on his face, "Don't even." Duo then jumped up and grabbed
Kyna, "No." Kyna screeched playfully as she was pulled into the water. "Duo you turkey." she said when
she came out of the water. Duo just grinned and swam away.
Duo and Kyna played in the pool for hours. And finally it began to get dark. They got out of the
pool and dried themselves off. They walked into the locker room and Duo grabbed his clothes.
"Let's go take a shower inside. There are five bathrooms, so we can both take a shower." Kyna
said.
"Okay." Duo said. They walked inside and a wonderful smell filled their nostrils. "MMM. Where
is that smell coming from?"
"Oh, Sally must be here."
"Who's Sally?"
"Quatre's maid. I tell her to take the day off, but she always comes at dinner time."
"Oh."
"We had better tell her that we have an extra person." Kyna walked to the kitchen. "Hi Sal." Kyna
said.
"Hi mistress." Sally said when Kyna walked in.
"I've told you, call me Kyna."
"Sorry Kyna." Sally said.
"Good. Um, we have an extra person eating with us tonight."
"Yes, I saw you two in the pool, so I made extra."
"Great, you are eating with us, right?"
"I really don't think that I should. I will tomorrow, but you have company, so I will let you two
have a private dinner."
"Are you sure?"
"Yes madam."
"All right. We're going to go take a shower. We'll be down in a while."
"Dinner should be ready by then."
"Okay, see you in a while." Kyna and Duo then left the kitchen.
"What's with that?" Duo asked.
"With what?" Kyna asked.
"Her not eating with you."
"Oh, I've been trying to get her to eat with me ever since I figured out that Quatre had a maid. But
she seems to think that it's not appropriate for some reason. I don't know why. She has eaten with me a
couple times, but she was always very tense."
"Oh."
"Okay, well here's a bathroom. You can use everything in there, including the brush and towels
that are hanging up. And afterwards, come find me. I'll be in Quatre's main room."
"Okay. I'll see you in a little while." Duo said walking into the bathroom. Kyna walked up the
stairs and went into the bathroom right by her (Quatre's main) room. They both took a shower.
After she was finished, Kyna changed into a beautiful light blue dress, and waited for Duo. Duo
knocked on the door not long after Kyna had finished changing.
"Come in." Kyna said. Duo walked in and stopped dead in his tracks after he saw Kyna.
"What's with the dress?" Duo asked.
"Well since I do have a visitor, and since Sally keep's on insisting that I wear a dress to dinner I
thought I would. And I also want you to put in this tux. I think it should fit you." Kyna said handing Duo a
tuxedo.
"You mean it will be kind of like a date?" Duo asked excitedly.
"I guess, if that's what you want."
"Cool."
"Now get changed. I'll wait for you outside the door." Kyna walked out of the room and shut the
door behind her. Duo picked up the tux, and changed. When he finished changing he opened the door and
walked out into the hall. "Wow. You look great Duo. Looks like it fits perfectly. Now, shall we go eat?"
"Yes, let's do." Duo held out his elbow. Kyna giggled and put her hand on his arm. They then
walked down to the banquet hall.
When they got into the banquet hall they saw two plates. The lights were out and there were
candles on the table.
"I guess Sally thinks this is a date." Kyna said.
"There's nothing wrong with that." Duo said smiling. They walked to the table and Duo pulled out
Kyna's chair and let her sit. And then sat in his own chair. He looked down at the food. "Looks good." Duo
said.
"Well dig in." Kyna said.
"Ma'am." Sally said as she walked in.
"Kyna." Kyna said.
"Kyna. Would you and the sir, like some wine, or sparkling cider?" Sally asked, as she put a wine
glasses in front of Kyna and another in front of Duo.
"Call me Duo please." Duo said to Sally.
"Well have the cider Sally. Thanks." Kyna said.
"All right, I'll be right back with your cider." Sally said. She turned around and walked into the
kitchen. A couple minutes later she walked back in with a couple bottles of cider. "Here you are ma'am, er,
Kyna."
"Thank you Sally." Kyna said smiling. Sally left the banquet hall and Kyna and Duo ate their
dinner.
After they finished their dinners Sally walked back in with a dessert for them.
"Oh wow." said Duo, "We even get a dessert."
"Yup." Kyna said.
"So, how have you been? I should've talked earlier, but I was enjoying that dinner to much." Duo
said.
"I've been better, I guess. I still miss Quatre, but being in his house makes it so I don't miss him
that much."
"That's good. I could tell the minute I walked in the house that you were doing better."
"How have you been lately? I haven't seen or heard from anybody since I was brought here. How
are the rest of the pilots and Relena?"
"I'm good, and so are the rest of the Gundam Pilots. Relena's good. She's extremely happy. Herro
finally proposed to her. We all knew that he loved her, but none of us thought that he would actually
propose. It shocked us all." Duo paused and took a bite of his dessert, "Don't you sing?"
"No, not anymore. Ever since Quatre died, I haven't been able to sing a single note. I never feel
like it anymore."
"Would you sing for me? Quatre said that you have a very pretty voice."
"That may have been. But I don't really feel like singing anymore."
"That's too bad." There was silence for a while. And then Kyna spoke.
"Duo, did you ever finish your schooling?"
"No."
"Why not?"
"Well, most schools won't let us Gundam Pilots join. I'm not really sure why, but they've never let
us in since they figured out who we were."
"Oh. I see. Do you think they'd let me finish my schooling?"
"I don't see why they wouldn't. Why?"
"I want to get my diploma. And I thought that maybe because I was involved in the last war that
they might not let me."
"I'm sure they would. But why don't you just finish at Relena's school?"
"That place holds to many bad memories."
"Ah, I see."
"I think I'll go register tomorrow. School doesn't start for another two weeks. So I should be able
to get registered and ready by the time school starts again."
"You mean it's the beginning of the year?"
"Yeah, their on summer vacation right now. But there should still be some people at the school."
"Good." Nothing was said the rest of the time they ate. When they finished they just sat at the
table for a while.
"Well, Duo, would you like to stay the night? Considering it's late. And since I have ten empty
rooms." Kyna said while they sat at the table.
"Sure, I would love to stay the night." Duo said. He stood up and walked over to Kyna. He pulled
out her chair and offered her his arm. Kyna took Duo's arm and stood up. They walked up the stairs to
Kyna's room.
"You can sleep in any room you choose." Kyna said.
"Thanks." Duo said, he looked at Kyna and then said, "I'm sorry but if I don't kiss you, I'll hate
myself." He leaned toward Kyna, but she turned her head, which made him kiss her cheek. "Sorry." Duo
said quickly after he kissed her cheek.
Kyna opened her door and took a step back. "It's okay." she said trembling, "Good-night Duo."
"Good-night Kyna." Duo said. Kyna backed up more and shut the door. "I'm so stupid. I shouldn't
have done that." he shook his head and walked to a nearby room.
Kyna meanwhile, walked to her bed and sat down. I'm sorry Duo. I understand that you have
feelings for me, but I still love Quatre. I don't think that will ever change. She thought.
Kyna and Duo changed, (well sort of. Duo just took off his tux and slept in his boxers, considering
he didn't have any thing to wear, and that's how he usually slept), and went to bed.
The next morning Kyna woke at nine o'clock and called the school after getting dressed.
The phone rang a couple times and then someone picked up.
"Hello you have reached the Sanq Kingdom High School, this is Karen, how may I help you?" the
woman asked.
"Hi, um. I need to enroll in the school." Kyna said.
"All right, may I ask your age, grade, name, sex, and where you are transferring from if you have
transferred." Karen said.
"My name is Kyna, I'm female, I'll be a Senior, twelfth grade, and I'll be transferring from the
Saint Gabrielle Institute run by Miss Relena Peacecraft." Kyna said.
"All right miss. We'll need you to come down to the school to get more information. You'll need to
come with you transfer papers, birth certificate, and social security number." Karen said.
"Thank you. Is there any specific time that you want me to come down?" Kyna asked.
"No. You may come when ever you can." Karen said.
"Thank you. Bye." Kyna said.
"Bye." Karen said, then she hung up. Kyna hung up the phone and took a deep breath. This meant
that she would have to go buy some school supplies. She knew that she would need a backpack and other
things, but other than that she had no idea.
She walked downstairs to find Sally in the kitchen cooking breakfast.
"Hi Sally. How are you this morning?" Kyna asked.
"I'm fine Miss Kyna. How are you?" Sally asked.
"I'm just great. I'm going to go wake Duo. We'll be down in a minute." Kyna said. Sally nodded
her head and Kyna headed up the stairs. She didn't know what room Duo was in so she knocked decided to
check every room. It didn't take long to find him though, considering he was in the closest room to Kyna's.
Kyna knocked on the door, "Duo, it's time for breakfast." There was no answer. "Duo," Kyna said
again, "come on wake up." Once again there was no answer so Kyna walked in the room and saw Duo
asleep on the bed. She turned on the light (I hate it when people do that, don't you?) and walked over to the
bed. "Hey, sleepy head, get up." Duo didn't even move, "Jeez, how much does it take to get you out of
bed?" she stood there for a moment. "Come on Duo. If you don't get up, you can't have any breakfast."
Again, nothing. Kyna shook her head and shook Duo, "Duo, wake up." This time he actually moved, but he
didn't wake up. Kyna rolled her eyes, and shook Duo again, "Wakey, wakey, sleepy head." Duo once again
moved but didn't wake. "Ugh." Kyna sighed and sat on the bed. "Hey
DUUUUUUUUOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. WAKE UP." she screamed. Nothing. She leaned close to his ear,
"If you don't wake up I'm going to pour cold water on you." she whispered. Just then Duo's arms grabbed
Kyna and pulled her to his lips. Kyna, shocked, stayed kissing Duo until she came out of shock. She then
pushed away from Duo and smacked him.
Duo jumped as though he had just woke up. "What was that for?" he asked rubbing his cheek.
"You kissed me." Kyna said standing up.
"I did?" Duo asked.
"Yes, you did." Kyna said.
"Sorry, I must have been dreaming. I didn't mean to kiss you. I do this a lot, you can ask Hildie."
Duo said sitting up in his bed.
"Okay, I believe you. Now get up, breakfast is ready." Kyna said. She walked out of the room
shaking her head, and walked down to the banquet hall, where her breakfast waited. She walked to the table
and noticed only two plates. "Sally!" Kyna called.
"Yes, ma'am?" Sally said walking into the room.
"You are going to eat with us, aren't you?" Kyna asked.
"I don't think it would be appropriate. You need time with the sir." Sally said.
"I don't know what you're thinking, but nothing is going on between Duo and me. So bring your
plate in here, and join us." Kyna said semi-demandingly.
"Yes miss." Sally said.
"Oh and Sally." Kyna said before Sally disappeared into the kitchen. Sally stopped and turned
around, "It's Kyna remember." Sally nodded her head and walked into the kitchen. And within a few
seconds, she came back out with her plate. Sally sat down and Kyna nodded her head in satisfaction. Just
then Duo walked in.
"Good morning." Duo said as he walked into the room, "MMM, smells great." he sat down where
the empty plate was.
"Good morning sleepy head." Kyna chuckled.
"What? What are you laughing at?" Duo asked. He looked at Kyna who was still laughing, and
then at Sally who had also began to laugh. "What?" He looked at himself, and then noticed that, in his hurry
to get downstairs, he had put his shirt on backwards. "Oops." he stood up and walked into a nearby
bathroom, where he put his shirt on the right way.
Everyone ate their breakfast and afterwards Kyna said, "Duo, I'm going to go get myself
transferred to the school. You can stay here or you can go. I don't really care." she walked out of the room
and out to a car.
Duo just stood in the banquet hall. I'm definitely going to stay here. I still haven't tried all of
Quatre's games. Duo thought to himself while a big smile crossed his face. He walked up to the
"electronic" game room and began to play games.
Kyna drove to the Saint Gabrielle Institute to tell Relena what she planned and to get her papers.
She walked into the building and to Relena's office. She heard voices coming from inside, so she knocked.
A few minutes later Relena came to the door.
"Kyna!" Relena said quite surprised.
"Hi, am I interrupting anything?" Kyna asked.
"Um, no actually, we were just talking about you." Relena said.
"Huh?" Kyna asked. Relena opened the door more to reveal Kyna's mother. "Mom!"
"Kyna?" Mrs. Yen turned to face the door, "Kyna! Oh my dear you're here." she stood up and
walked toward the door.
"Why don't you come in?" Relena said. Kyna walked in and Relena shut the door and locked it.
"What's going on? Why are you here mom?" Kyna asked.
"I've been so worried about you. I haven heard from you for more than a year." Mrs. Yen said.
"Look, mom. This is out of your reach. Don't worry about things. It's not your problem" Kyna
said.
"What's the matter? Please tell me." Kyna's mother pleaded as she walked towards her daughter.
"No. Go away." Kyna said backing away from her mom, "Relena, you didn't tell her anything did
you?"
"No, why?" Relena asked.
"No reason really. Now mom, if you'll excuse us, I need to talk to Relena, alone." Kyna said.
Kyna's mother nodded her head and sadly left the room. "Now, Relena, I know that you're not going to like
this, but, I've decided to go to the public high school."
"What, why?"
"I don't want to come here anymore, it's not you, it's just, this place has to many memories. I need
to get some transfer papers, and I promise I'll move all of my stuff out of my room."
"But Kyna, are you sure you want to do this?"
"Yes, I don't want to hurt anyone, but I well, I want to do something different."
"All right, I'll get your papers ready. In the mean time, go talk to your mom. She really does love
you, and worry about you."
"All right. I'm going to go to my room. When you're finished, please come get me."
"Sure thing." Relena smiled and Kyna smiled back.
"Thanks." Kyna walked out of the room. Her mom was standing right by the door.
"Kyna." she said.
"Come with me mom." Kyna said. She started to walk down to her room.
"What's going on?" Kyna's mother asked as she followed her daughter.
"Well, I . . . I don't really know how to tell you everything that has been going on. I know, that you
knew about my fighting. But there's a lot that you don't know about. And frankly, I don't think you'd want
to know." Kyna said.
"Dear, I really don't know what has been going on, or why you don't want to tell me. But please, at
least let me know that you're all right." Mrs. Yen said.
"I want to tell you everything that's been going on, but I don't want you to get mad at me." Kyna
said. They got to her room and Kyna opened the door for her mother.
"I won't get mad at you."
"Yes you will mother."
"I promise, I won't get mad. Tell me in the simplest way that you can." she said sitting down on
her daughters bed.
Kyna took a deep breath and then said slowly, "Well, I guess I could say that I fell in love with
one of the people you hate most."
"What!" Kyna's mother said standing up.
"See, I knew you'd get mad."
"No, I'm not mad, I'm just surprised. You, my daughter fell in love with someone from the
alliance."
"No, not the alliance. A Gundam Pilot."
"How? Who?" Kyna's mother fell back on the bed.
"Well, I guess I had better start from the beginning." Kyna sat down on her bed beside her mother
and told her everything, from beginning to end. Every little detail, (okay, maybe not every detail, but a lot)
from the first day Kyna met the pilots, to what she planned to do next.
"Oh, Kyna dear, how come you didn't tell me this in the first place?"
"I thought that you'd get mad at me. And I really didn't want to deal with anything else. I was
already mad myself for falling in love with Quatre in the first place. And if you had gotten mad at me, I
would have hated myself even more. I just didn't want you to worry about me more than you did, or for you
to never talk to me again."
"Oh, Hun, I would've been a little mad but I could never hate you. And I would've worried about
you more. But you know, I worry about you no matter what you do. I miss you terribly, and you know
what, I worried about you more because you didn't write to me. For all I knew, you could've been dead. If
you would have written to me, I wouldn't have worried to much."
Kyna smiled.
"Now, about your going to school." Kyna's mother said, "I'm glad that you're going to give
something new a try." They sat there for a while saying nothing. They had been in the room for over an
hour. They sat for about ten minutes and then there was a knock on the door. The two, not expecting the
sudden knock, jumped. Kyna got off the bed and opened the door. There stood Relena, papers in hand.
"Hi Relena." Kyna said.
"Are you two done talking, or do you want me to leave for a little longer?" Relena asked.
"No, we're done. My mom knows the whole story." Kyna said.
"Good, well here's your papers. I hope you'll like it at your new school. And I hope that you'll
come visit me." Relena said handing Kyna her papers.
"Thank you so much. I'll get some boxes in here as soon as I can. I appreciate everything you've
done for me." Kyna said giving Relena a hug. "Well, I had better get going, I want to go register as soon as
I can, I still need to find some stuff out." Relena smiled. Kyna began to walk out of the room.
"Wait." Kyna's mother said. Kyna stopped and her mother walked up to her. "I want you to keep in
touch with me. You know the address, please, don't cut me off. I want to know everything."
"I promise." Kyna said, she stepped forward and gave her mom a hug. "Bye, I love you mom."
Kyna walked out of the room and out of the building. Once outside Kyna turned and looked at the school
and sighed "I'm going to miss this place." Kyna said sadly to herself. She walked to her car, got in and
drove to the high school.
When she got to the school, she parked her car and walked into the school. It was a very large
building. There was a glass hallway and a courtyard that could be seen through the glass hallway. Kyna
looked down the hallway and noticed an open door at the top where the glass hallway stopped. She walked
up and noticed that it was the office. She walked in.
"Hello, how may I help you?" A woman asked walking up to the counter.
"Um, I'm here to register. I called earlier." Kyna said.
"Are you Kyna?" The woman asked.
"Yes I am as a matter of fact." Kyna said.
"All right. May I have your papers." The woman asked, Kyna handed her the papers, "In the mean
time you'll need to fill this out. It's an elective sheet. You may choose up to three electives, but you don't
have to have any. You will be required to take, A science, math, English and PE class."
"Why PE?" Kyna asked.
"Since in the school you used to go to didn't have PE classes, you'll need to take at least one year
of it."
"Oh, I see." Kyna looked down at the paper she was handed. She looked through all of the
electives, there were many to choose from. She decided, though, only to choose one, Art. She was always
fond of drawing, and she wasn't very good at it, so she choose it. And she also debated about choir. She
thought about it, but then decided not to. Like she had told Duo, she didn't really feel like singing. So she
didn't, she only selected Art and handed the paper to the woman.
"All right, you are all set. School starts in two weeks, and there will be an open house on the 21st
so you can get your schedule and find your class rooms before the first day. We hope to see you then. If
you have any questions, don't hesitate to call. Here are your papers." Kyna was handed her papers.
"Thank you." Kyna said she turned and walked out of the office. She walked to her car and drove
home.
When she got home she walked up stairs and plopped down on her bed. She sat there for a while
and then there was a knock on the door. Kyna jumped, and went to open the door. When she opened it she
saw Duo.
"Oh, hi Duo." Kyna said.
"Hi. So did you go sign up for school?" Duo asked.
"Yep." Kyna said as she walked back over to her bed and sat down.
"What electives did you choose?" Duo asked following Kyna and also sitting on her bed.
"Art." Kyna replied.
"That's it?"
"Yup."
"You didn't sign up for choir or anything?"
"Nope."
"Why not?"
"I told you. I just don't feel like singing anymore."
"Oh. Okay. Well I'm going to go make a phone call." Duo got up and walked out of the room.
Kyna just sat on the bed. Ten minutes later Duo walked back in the room. "Hey, the school wants you to go
back down there." he said.
"Why?" Kyna asked puzzled.
"Because they need you to try out for choir."
Duo's gonna get it now. Well what happens, does Kyna go, or does she beat Duo into the ground? Please
review.
Duo looked over at Trowa. "What are you talking about?" Duo asked Trowa. "You know that
Quatre's dead."
"Don't worry about it." Trowa said, "Get in the car, let's go." Trowa said getting into the car.
"So where are we going?" Duo asked.
"Where do you want to go?" Trowa asked.
"I'm not really sure. Nowhere really."
"You can't stay here."
"Fine, take me back to Relena's."
"Okay." Trowa started the car and he began to drive off.
Meanwhile, Kyna was walking around the house. She had stopped crying, she was much to
fascinated by the house. She found wonderful things everywhere she went in the house. There were ton's of
rooms, each one a little different, meant for different things it seemed.
There was a game room (you know, with things like pool and stuff), a room that seemed to be a
music room (judging by all the instruments in it), a few bedrooms, an office room, a banquet hall, and
many, many other rooms.
Kyna seemed to be able to open all the doors. All but one, she couldn't figure out why, maybe
Trowa had forgotten to give her a key. But she didn't worry about it. She would ask Trowa next time she
spoke to him.
There were many pictures around Quatre's house, of which, Kyna figured, were of his family. She
had never met Quatre's family.
I wonder if they knew about me? Kyna thought, And I wonder if they know that he's... dead. At this
thought Kyna began to cry.
As Trowa and Duo drove home Duo thought. I wonder what Trowa meant. Oh well, he's to
stubborn, I'd never get it out of him if I tried. Duo looked over at Trowa, and sighed. Oh well, maybe he's
just wishing that Quatre was still alive, like Kyna. Doubt it.
Many weeks past, Trowa and Duo hadn't said a thing about what Trowa had said the day they left
Kyna, and Kyna still hadn't been able to open the one door. Not even Trowa could help her.
Trowa stayed around with Relena, Wufei disappeared, as did Heero, and Duo stayed with Hildie
on the Earth. Kyna, sat around Quatre's house, trying to find things to do.
One day as she was on the internet she ran into Duo, of all people, in a chat room. The reason she
began to talk to Duo (before knowing it was him), was because of his nickname; The god of death, a little
obvious isn't it.
Kyna seeing the name decided to talk to this person, it might prove to be interesting. She clicked
on the name and typed:
Hi, would you like to chat with me?
The answer came soon. Sure. The conversation continued.
Thanks, I was getting bored having nobody to talk to.
No problem.
Where did you get your name from?
It's my nickname, well at least it's what I call myself. What with your
nickname, Lost My Love. Kind of weird.
It's true, I did lose my love. It was a while ago, but I still miss him.
I have a friend who just lost the one she loved recently too. I feel sorry for
her.
Well I know how she feels. Oh well, I know I'll get over my Quatre, some day.
"Quatre?" Duo said looking at the screen, "No way, Kyna?"
Kyna?
Who are you?
Kyna, it's me, Duo. Thus my nickname.
"No way, Duo?" Kyna said to herself.
Where are you Duo?
I'm with Hildie. I must admit that I've been kind of bored though.
Same here. It's so lonely here, there's no one to talk to, and I don't have anything to
do, and this house is so big.
Would you like me to come visit you?
Oh, Duo, that would be wonderful. I would love for you to come visit me.
Great, I'll come down right now. I'll get off of the computer and come
right over.
That'll be great.
Okay, I'll see you in a little while, bye for now.
Bye.
With that, Duo signed off and began to drive to Kyna's house. Kyna stayed on line talking to a
couple other people while she waited for Duo to come. While she was talking to one of her on-line friends,
they brought up the subject of school. It was then that Kyna realized, that she would have to finish her
schooling.
She only had one more year, and she didn't want to go back to Relena's institute. So that left her
with only one option, she would have to go to a public school. She had gone to a public school before,
when she was in elementary. But since she had gone into Jr. high, she had been at Relena's school. But she
sighed, she wanted, and needed, to get her diploma, then she could be lazy.
A ring of the loud door bell, broke Kyna out of her thought. She got up and walked to the front
door. She opened the door, and there stood Duo, as she had expected. She let him in.
"Hi." she said.
"Hey." Duo said.
"I have to go turn off the computer, I'll be right back. You can go sit in the living room. It's right
down that way." Kyna said pointing to her left.
"Okay." Duo said. He walked in the direction that Kyna was pointing. Kyna ran back up the stairs
into the office, once there she said good-bye to all the people she was talking to, and turned off the
computer after logging off the internet. She walked back down stairs and into the living room. Where Duo
sat waiting.
"Okay, sorry about that. So how have you been?" Kyna asked sitting down next to Duo.
"I've been good, and you look much better than before. But before we speak anymore, I want to
give you something." Duo said. He stood up and pulled a piece of paper out of his pocket. He handed it to
Kyna. It said:
????
?
???????????
?
???
?
?
?????????????????????????????????????????????
??????
Kyna looked at the paper in puzzlement. And then at Duo. "Duo, what does this say?" she asked.
"You have to figure it out." Duo said.
"Okay, but how?" Kyna asked still puzzled.
"If you don't figure it out within a couple days, then I'll give you a hint. But try to figure it out on
your own." Duo said smiling.
"Right." Kyna said still looking at the paper puzzled, "Oh, would you like something to drink or
eat?" she asked realizing she hadn't offered anything.
"No, I'm fine."
"So, what have you been doing lately?"
"Not much really. I've mainly just been hanging out with Hildie and her cousin. Which, if you ask
me, isn't very fun. So after a while I just started bumming around the house."
"Sounds like me. I'm always bumming around the house. This house is so huge, there are so many
things to do. But I'm never really in the mood to do any of them."
"That's to bad."
"I've been able to get into every room, except one. I'm not sure what's in it. But it seems like a
huge room. Would you like a tour of the house?"
"Sure, I've always wondered what was in every one of these rooms."
"Well there are about ten empty bedrooms." Kyna said standing up, "And there are five
bathrooms, two game rooms, one office, the one I can't get into, a music room, and about five others, that
are probably just sitting rooms. And then of course you have the banquet hall, and kitchen. So there are
about twenty-eight rooms, including the banquet hall, kitchen, and my room. Oh, and outside there's a
swimming pool, a courtyard, a volley ball court, a basketball court, and a tennis court. And a locker room
type thing with everything you'd need for each of those games. And of course there is a garden, but I don't
think you'll be very interested in that."
"Wow." Duo said also standing. The two walked around the house, Duo was amazed, especial
when they went into the game rooms. One room, was all electronic game things, you know, play stations,
game boys, Nintendo 64's, every game system ever invented. There was even a computer with nothing but
games on it.
The other game room, had things like ping pong, pool, table hockey, and a lot of other games.
"Wow, I would love to live here." Duo said with wide eyes.
Kyna laughed, "Would you like to go outside?"
"Sure." They went down the stairs, and out the back door. "Jeez!"
Kyna smiled and looked at Duo, "It's good to have someone to talk to. So, what would you like to
do?"
"I don't know, there are so many things to do. What would you like to do?"
"I've done them all pretty much. So, I'll let you decide."
"Well, I would say lets go swimming, but I don't have a swimming suit with me."
"No problem. Do you remember the locker room I told you about. It has ton's of extra swimming
suits."
"Cool, lead the way." Kyna walked towards a building that was away from the main house and
unlocked the door.
"Here it is." Kyna wasn't kidding, there were tons of things in there. A basket full of volleyballs, a
basket full of basketballs, and a basket full of tennis balls. There were all kinds of things you could use in
the pool, five showers off in a far corner, some changing rooms, and bathrooms, lockers, and suits for every
sport that he had out on the court yard, and, suits and swords for fencing. And a couple storing closets.
Kyna walked over to a closet and opened it. Inside were tons of swimming shorts for guys. Then
she walked to another closet, which had towels in it. "Here you go Duo, chose the one you like most that
fits, and change. I'm going to go grab my swimming suit. I'll meet you in the pool." She left the building
and walked into the house. She went up to her room and changed into her two piece swim suit.
She walked out to the yard and saw Duo sitting on the edge of the pool. She then walked into the
"locker room" and grabbed two towels, one for her, and one for Duo. And then walked out to the pool.
Wow, I thought she was pretty before. She's even prettier in a bikini. Duo thought when he saw
Kyna.
"Here's a towel for you Duo, where do you want me to put it?"
"Any where, I don't really care."
"I'll put it here then 'kay."
"Okay, now come on, let's swim."
"Okay, okay. I'm coming." Kyna set the towels down, and walked over to Duo. "I'm going to jump
of the diving board."
"Ya know, that sounds like fun." Duo said as he got up and followed Kyna to the diving board.
Kyna got on the board and did a perfect dive into the water, making not even one ripple. She swam to the
opposite side of the pool and then came up out of the water.
"Your turn." she said to Duo.
"Okay, get ready." he got on the board ran and yelled, "Geronimo." right before he did a cannon
ball into the pool. The splash he made was huge. It went all the way to the other side of the pool where
Kyna was.
Duo came out of the water right where he had landed. Kyna swam over to him. "You are so weird
Duo." she giggled.
"You don't know the half of it."
Kyna just laughed. Duo looked at her and smiled. I've never heard her laugh before. Oh man, why
did I have to fall in love with you right after Quatre died? Duo thought. Just then he was hit in the face with
some water. He wiped off his face and saw Kyna disappear under the water. Duo dove under the water and
went after her.
When he caught up to her he grabbed her foot and she turned around. They both went up to the
surface to get some air and as soon as they did, Duo splashed Kyna.
"Hey." Kyna said playfully.
"Gotcha." Duo laughed.
"Oh yeah, take this." Kyna said as she splashed him back. The two continued to splash each other
for a little while, until Kyna went under the water as Duo wiped his eyes after she splashed him. Once
underwater she grabbed Duo's leg and made him go under the water. Then she swam off.
Duo went back up to the surface to get some air and saw Kyna on the opposite side of the pool. He
then took a deep breath and went under the water, Kyna seeing Duo go under water did the same. They met
almost in the middle of the pool. Duo then looked at her and smiled. He past her and went to the deep end
of the pool where Kyna had recently been. Kyna followed him. Once at the deep end Duo and Kyna went
to the surface to get some air. And then Duo once again went under the water.
Kyna didn't trust him so she too, went under the water. When she went under, she saw Duo
treading under the water staying in one spot. Kyna began to do the same thing. Duo then swam closer to
her. He smiled and then leaned forward and kissed her.
Kyna was surprised, she hadn't really expected Duo to do something like that. She then pushed
him away and went to the surface. She took a deep breath and noticed that she was shaking a little.
"I'm sorry Kyna, I couldn't help myself." Duo said as soon as he came out of the water.
"It's okay, really." Kyna said. She swam to the side of the pool and sat on the ledge.
Duo swam over to her. "I am so sorry." Duo said once again.
"It's okay Duo, really. You just startled me."
"You're shaking."
"I'll be fine, you just scared me, that's all."
"Sorry."
"Will you quit saying that."
"Sorry. Uh, oops."
Kyna laughed, "You are very strange indeed Duo Maxwell." Duo smiled suspiciously. "Duo don't
you dare." Kyna said looking at the smile on his face, "Don't even." Duo then jumped up and grabbed
Kyna, "No." Kyna screeched playfully as she was pulled into the water. "Duo you turkey." she said when
she came out of the water. Duo just grinned and swam away.
Duo and Kyna played in the pool for hours. And finally it began to get dark. They got out of the
pool and dried themselves off. They walked into the locker room and Duo grabbed his clothes.
"Let's go take a shower inside. There are five bathrooms, so we can both take a shower." Kyna
said.
"Okay." Duo said. They walked inside and a wonderful smell filled their nostrils. "MMM. Where
is that smell coming from?"
"Oh, Sally must be here."
"Who's Sally?"
"Quatre's maid. I tell her to take the day off, but she always comes at dinner time."
"Oh."
"We had better tell her that we have an extra person." Kyna walked to the kitchen. "Hi Sal." Kyna
said.
"Hi mistress." Sally said when Kyna walked in.
"I've told you, call me Kyna."
"Sorry Kyna." Sally said.
"Good. Um, we have an extra person eating with us tonight."
"Yes, I saw you two in the pool, so I made extra."
"Great, you are eating with us, right?"
"I really don't think that I should. I will tomorrow, but you have company, so I will let you two
have a private dinner."
"Are you sure?"
"Yes madam."
"All right. We're going to go take a shower. We'll be down in a while."
"Dinner should be ready by then."
"Okay, see you in a while." Kyna and Duo then left the kitchen.
"What's with that?" Duo asked.
"With what?" Kyna asked.
"Her not eating with you."
"Oh, I've been trying to get her to eat with me ever since I figured out that Quatre had a maid. But
she seems to think that it's not appropriate for some reason. I don't know why. She has eaten with me a
couple times, but she was always very tense."
"Oh."
"Okay, well here's a bathroom. You can use everything in there, including the brush and towels
that are hanging up. And afterwards, come find me. I'll be in Quatre's main room."
"Okay. I'll see you in a little while." Duo said walking into the bathroom. Kyna walked up the
stairs and went into the bathroom right by her (Quatre's main) room. They both took a shower.
After she was finished, Kyna changed into a beautiful light blue dress, and waited for Duo. Duo
knocked on the door not long after Kyna had finished changing.
"Come in." Kyna said. Duo walked in and stopped dead in his tracks after he saw Kyna.
"What's with the dress?" Duo asked.
"Well since I do have a visitor, and since Sally keep's on insisting that I wear a dress to dinner I
thought I would. And I also want you to put in this tux. I think it should fit you." Kyna said handing Duo a
tuxedo.
"You mean it will be kind of like a date?" Duo asked excitedly.
"I guess, if that's what you want."
"Cool."
"Now get changed. I'll wait for you outside the door." Kyna walked out of the room and shut the
door behind her. Duo picked up the tux, and changed. When he finished changing he opened the door and
walked out into the hall. "Wow. You look great Duo. Looks like it fits perfectly. Now, shall we go eat?"
"Yes, let's do." Duo held out his elbow. Kyna giggled and put her hand on his arm. They then
walked down to the banquet hall.
When they got into the banquet hall they saw two plates. The lights were out and there were
candles on the table.
"I guess Sally thinks this is a date." Kyna said.
"There's nothing wrong with that." Duo said smiling. They walked to the table and Duo pulled out
Kyna's chair and let her sit. And then sat in his own chair. He looked down at the food. "Looks good." Duo
said.
"Well dig in." Kyna said.
"Ma'am." Sally said as she walked in.
"Kyna." Kyna said.
"Kyna. Would you and the sir, like some wine, or sparkling cider?" Sally asked, as she put a wine
glasses in front of Kyna and another in front of Duo.
"Call me Duo please." Duo said to Sally.
"Well have the cider Sally. Thanks." Kyna said.
"All right, I'll be right back with your cider." Sally said. She turned around and walked into the
kitchen. A couple minutes later she walked back in with a couple bottles of cider. "Here you are ma'am, er,
Kyna."
"Thank you Sally." Kyna said smiling. Sally left the banquet hall and Kyna and Duo ate their
dinner.
After they finished their dinners Sally walked back in with a dessert for them.
"Oh wow." said Duo, "We even get a dessert."
"Yup." Kyna said.
"So, how have you been? I should've talked earlier, but I was enjoying that dinner to much." Duo
said.
"I've been better, I guess. I still miss Quatre, but being in his house makes it so I don't miss him
that much."
"That's good. I could tell the minute I walked in the house that you were doing better."
"How have you been lately? I haven't seen or heard from anybody since I was brought here. How
are the rest of the pilots and Relena?"
"I'm good, and so are the rest of the Gundam Pilots. Relena's good. She's extremely happy. Herro
finally proposed to her. We all knew that he loved her, but none of us thought that he would actually
propose. It shocked us all." Duo paused and took a bite of his dessert, "Don't you sing?"
"No, not anymore. Ever since Quatre died, I haven't been able to sing a single note. I never feel
like it anymore."
"Would you sing for me? Quatre said that you have a very pretty voice."
"That may have been. But I don't really feel like singing anymore."
"That's too bad." There was silence for a while. And then Kyna spoke.
"Duo, did you ever finish your schooling?"
"No."
"Why not?"
"Well, most schools won't let us Gundam Pilots join. I'm not really sure why, but they've never let
us in since they figured out who we were."
"Oh. I see. Do you think they'd let me finish my schooling?"
"I don't see why they wouldn't. Why?"
"I want to get my diploma. And I thought that maybe because I was involved in the last war that
they might not let me."
"I'm sure they would. But why don't you just finish at Relena's school?"
"That place holds to many bad memories."
"Ah, I see."
"I think I'll go register tomorrow. School doesn't start for another two weeks. So I should be able
to get registered and ready by the time school starts again."
"You mean it's the beginning of the year?"
"Yeah, their on summer vacation right now. But there should still be some people at the school."
"Good." Nothing was said the rest of the time they ate. When they finished they just sat at the
table for a while.
"Well, Duo, would you like to stay the night? Considering it's late. And since I have ten empty
rooms." Kyna said while they sat at the table.
"Sure, I would love to stay the night." Duo said. He stood up and walked over to Kyna. He pulled
out her chair and offered her his arm. Kyna took Duo's arm and stood up. They walked up the stairs to
Kyna's room.
"You can sleep in any room you choose." Kyna said.
"Thanks." Duo said, he looked at Kyna and then said, "I'm sorry but if I don't kiss you, I'll hate
myself." He leaned toward Kyna, but she turned her head, which made him kiss her cheek. "Sorry." Duo
said quickly after he kissed her cheek.
Kyna opened her door and took a step back. "It's okay." she said trembling, "Good-night Duo."
"Good-night Kyna." Duo said. Kyna backed up more and shut the door. "I'm so stupid. I shouldn't
have done that." he shook his head and walked to a nearby room.
Kyna meanwhile, walked to her bed and sat down. I'm sorry Duo. I understand that you have
feelings for me, but I still love Quatre. I don't think that will ever change. She thought.
Kyna and Duo changed, (well sort of. Duo just took off his tux and slept in his boxers, considering
he didn't have any thing to wear, and that's how he usually slept), and went to bed.
The next morning Kyna woke at nine o'clock and called the school after getting dressed.
The phone rang a couple times and then someone picked up.
"Hello you have reached the Sanq Kingdom High School, this is Karen, how may I help you?" the
woman asked.
"Hi, um. I need to enroll in the school." Kyna said.
"All right, may I ask your age, grade, name, sex, and where you are transferring from if you have
transferred." Karen said.
"My name is Kyna, I'm female, I'll be a Senior, twelfth grade, and I'll be transferring from the
Saint Gabrielle Institute run by Miss Relena Peacecraft." Kyna said.
"All right miss. We'll need you to come down to the school to get more information. You'll need to
come with you transfer papers, birth certificate, and social security number." Karen said.
"Thank you. Is there any specific time that you want me to come down?" Kyna asked.
"No. You may come when ever you can." Karen said.
"Thank you. Bye." Kyna said.
"Bye." Karen said, then she hung up. Kyna hung up the phone and took a deep breath. This meant
that she would have to go buy some school supplies. She knew that she would need a backpack and other
things, but other than that she had no idea.
She walked downstairs to find Sally in the kitchen cooking breakfast.
"Hi Sally. How are you this morning?" Kyna asked.
"I'm fine Miss Kyna. How are you?" Sally asked.
"I'm just great. I'm going to go wake Duo. We'll be down in a minute." Kyna said. Sally nodded
her head and Kyna headed up the stairs. She didn't know what room Duo was in so she knocked decided to
check every room. It didn't take long to find him though, considering he was in the closest room to Kyna's.
Kyna knocked on the door, "Duo, it's time for breakfast." There was no answer. "Duo," Kyna said
again, "come on wake up." Once again there was no answer so Kyna walked in the room and saw Duo
asleep on the bed. She turned on the light (I hate it when people do that, don't you?) and walked over to the
bed. "Hey, sleepy head, get up." Duo didn't even move, "Jeez, how much does it take to get you out of
bed?" she stood there for a moment. "Come on Duo. If you don't get up, you can't have any breakfast."
Again, nothing. Kyna shook her head and shook Duo, "Duo, wake up." This time he actually moved, but he
didn't wake up. Kyna rolled her eyes, and shook Duo again, "Wakey, wakey, sleepy head." Duo once again
moved but didn't wake. "Ugh." Kyna sighed and sat on the bed. "Hey
DUUUUUUUUOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. WAKE UP." she screamed. Nothing. She leaned close to his ear,
"If you don't wake up I'm going to pour cold water on you." she whispered. Just then Duo's arms grabbed
Kyna and pulled her to his lips. Kyna, shocked, stayed kissing Duo until she came out of shock. She then
pushed away from Duo and smacked him.
Duo jumped as though he had just woke up. "What was that for?" he asked rubbing his cheek.
"You kissed me." Kyna said standing up.
"I did?" Duo asked.
"Yes, you did." Kyna said.
"Sorry, I must have been dreaming. I didn't mean to kiss you. I do this a lot, you can ask Hildie."
Duo said sitting up in his bed.
"Okay, I believe you. Now get up, breakfast is ready." Kyna said. She walked out of the room
shaking her head, and walked down to the banquet hall, where her breakfast waited. She walked to the table
and noticed only two plates. "Sally!" Kyna called.
"Yes, ma'am?" Sally said walking into the room.
"You are going to eat with us, aren't you?" Kyna asked.
"I don't think it would be appropriate. You need time with the sir." Sally said.
"I don't know what you're thinking, but nothing is going on between Duo and me. So bring your
plate in here, and join us." Kyna said semi-demandingly.
"Yes miss." Sally said.
"Oh and Sally." Kyna said before Sally disappeared into the kitchen. Sally stopped and turned
around, "It's Kyna remember." Sally nodded her head and walked into the kitchen. And within a few
seconds, she came back out with her plate. Sally sat down and Kyna nodded her head in satisfaction. Just
then Duo walked in.
"Good morning." Duo said as he walked into the room, "MMM, smells great." he sat down where
the empty plate was.
"Good morning sleepy head." Kyna chuckled.
"What? What are you laughing at?" Duo asked. He looked at Kyna who was still laughing, and
then at Sally who had also began to laugh. "What?" He looked at himself, and then noticed that, in his hurry
to get downstairs, he had put his shirt on backwards. "Oops." he stood up and walked into a nearby
bathroom, where he put his shirt on the right way.
Everyone ate their breakfast and afterwards Kyna said, "Duo, I'm going to go get myself
transferred to the school. You can stay here or you can go. I don't really care." she walked out of the room
and out to a car.
Duo just stood in the banquet hall. I'm definitely going to stay here. I still haven't tried all of
Quatre's games. Duo thought to himself while a big smile crossed his face. He walked up to the
"electronic" game room and began to play games.
Kyna drove to the Saint Gabrielle Institute to tell Relena what she planned and to get her papers.
She walked into the building and to Relena's office. She heard voices coming from inside, so she knocked.
A few minutes later Relena came to the door.
"Kyna!" Relena said quite surprised.
"Hi, am I interrupting anything?" Kyna asked.
"Um, no actually, we were just talking about you." Relena said.
"Huh?" Kyna asked. Relena opened the door more to reveal Kyna's mother. "Mom!"
"Kyna?" Mrs. Yen turned to face the door, "Kyna! Oh my dear you're here." she stood up and
walked toward the door.
"Why don't you come in?" Relena said. Kyna walked in and Relena shut the door and locked it.
"What's going on? Why are you here mom?" Kyna asked.
"I've been so worried about you. I haven heard from you for more than a year." Mrs. Yen said.
"Look, mom. This is out of your reach. Don't worry about things. It's not your problem" Kyna
said.
"What's the matter? Please tell me." Kyna's mother pleaded as she walked towards her daughter.
"No. Go away." Kyna said backing away from her mom, "Relena, you didn't tell her anything did
you?"
"No, why?" Relena asked.
"No reason really. Now mom, if you'll excuse us, I need to talk to Relena, alone." Kyna said.
Kyna's mother nodded her head and sadly left the room. "Now, Relena, I know that you're not going to like
this, but, I've decided to go to the public high school."
"What, why?"
"I don't want to come here anymore, it's not you, it's just, this place has to many memories. I need
to get some transfer papers, and I promise I'll move all of my stuff out of my room."
"But Kyna, are you sure you want to do this?"
"Yes, I don't want to hurt anyone, but I well, I want to do something different."
"All right, I'll get your papers ready. In the mean time, go talk to your mom. She really does love
you, and worry about you."
"All right. I'm going to go to my room. When you're finished, please come get me."
"Sure thing." Relena smiled and Kyna smiled back.
"Thanks." Kyna walked out of the room. Her mom was standing right by the door.
"Kyna." she said.
"Come with me mom." Kyna said. She started to walk down to her room.
"What's going on?" Kyna's mother asked as she followed her daughter.
"Well, I . . . I don't really know how to tell you everything that has been going on. I know, that you
knew about my fighting. But there's a lot that you don't know about. And frankly, I don't think you'd want
to know." Kyna said.
"Dear, I really don't know what has been going on, or why you don't want to tell me. But please, at
least let me know that you're all right." Mrs. Yen said.
"I want to tell you everything that's been going on, but I don't want you to get mad at me." Kyna
said. They got to her room and Kyna opened the door for her mother.
"I won't get mad at you."
"Yes you will mother."
"I promise, I won't get mad. Tell me in the simplest way that you can." she said sitting down on
her daughters bed.
Kyna took a deep breath and then said slowly, "Well, I guess I could say that I fell in love with
one of the people you hate most."
"What!" Kyna's mother said standing up.
"See, I knew you'd get mad."
"No, I'm not mad, I'm just surprised. You, my daughter fell in love with someone from the
alliance."
"No, not the alliance. A Gundam Pilot."
"How? Who?" Kyna's mother fell back on the bed.
"Well, I guess I had better start from the beginning." Kyna sat down on her bed beside her mother
and told her everything, from beginning to end. Every little detail, (okay, maybe not every detail, but a lot)
from the first day Kyna met the pilots, to what she planned to do next.
"Oh, Kyna dear, how come you didn't tell me this in the first place?"
"I thought that you'd get mad at me. And I really didn't want to deal with anything else. I was
already mad myself for falling in love with Quatre in the first place. And if you had gotten mad at me, I
would have hated myself even more. I just didn't want you to worry about me more than you did, or for you
to never talk to me again."
"Oh, Hun, I would've been a little mad but I could never hate you. And I would've worried about
you more. But you know, I worry about you no matter what you do. I miss you terribly, and you know
what, I worried about you more because you didn't write to me. For all I knew, you could've been dead. If
you would have written to me, I wouldn't have worried to much."
Kyna smiled.
"Now, about your going to school." Kyna's mother said, "I'm glad that you're going to give
something new a try." They sat there for a while saying nothing. They had been in the room for over an
hour. They sat for about ten minutes and then there was a knock on the door. The two, not expecting the
sudden knock, jumped. Kyna got off the bed and opened the door. There stood Relena, papers in hand.
"Hi Relena." Kyna said.
"Are you two done talking, or do you want me to leave for a little longer?" Relena asked.
"No, we're done. My mom knows the whole story." Kyna said.
"Good, well here's your papers. I hope you'll like it at your new school. And I hope that you'll
come visit me." Relena said handing Kyna her papers.
"Thank you so much. I'll get some boxes in here as soon as I can. I appreciate everything you've
done for me." Kyna said giving Relena a hug. "Well, I had better get going, I want to go register as soon as
I can, I still need to find some stuff out." Relena smiled. Kyna began to walk out of the room.
"Wait." Kyna's mother said. Kyna stopped and her mother walked up to her. "I want you to keep in
touch with me. You know the address, please, don't cut me off. I want to know everything."
"I promise." Kyna said, she stepped forward and gave her mom a hug. "Bye, I love you mom."
Kyna walked out of the room and out of the building. Once outside Kyna turned and looked at the school
and sighed "I'm going to miss this place." Kyna said sadly to herself. She walked to her car, got in and
drove to the high school.
When she got to the school, she parked her car and walked into the school. It was a very large
building. There was a glass hallway and a courtyard that could be seen through the glass hallway. Kyna
looked down the hallway and noticed an open door at the top where the glass hallway stopped. She walked
up and noticed that it was the office. She walked in.
"Hello, how may I help you?" A woman asked walking up to the counter.
"Um, I'm here to register. I called earlier." Kyna said.
"Are you Kyna?" The woman asked.
"Yes I am as a matter of fact." Kyna said.
"All right. May I have your papers." The woman asked, Kyna handed her the papers, "In the mean
time you'll need to fill this out. It's an elective sheet. You may choose up to three electives, but you don't
have to have any. You will be required to take, A science, math, English and PE class."
"Why PE?" Kyna asked.
"Since in the school you used to go to didn't have PE classes, you'll need to take at least one year
of it."
"Oh, I see." Kyna looked down at the paper she was handed. She looked through all of the
electives, there were many to choose from. She decided, though, only to choose one, Art. She was always
fond of drawing, and she wasn't very good at it, so she choose it. And she also debated about choir. She
thought about it, but then decided not to. Like she had told Duo, she didn't really feel like singing. So she
didn't, she only selected Art and handed the paper to the woman.
"All right, you are all set. School starts in two weeks, and there will be an open house on the 21st
so you can get your schedule and find your class rooms before the first day. We hope to see you then. If
you have any questions, don't hesitate to call. Here are your papers." Kyna was handed her papers.
"Thank you." Kyna said she turned and walked out of the office. She walked to her car and drove
home.
When she got home she walked up stairs and plopped down on her bed. She sat there for a while
and then there was a knock on the door. Kyna jumped, and went to open the door. When she opened it she
saw Duo.
"Oh, hi Duo." Kyna said.
"Hi. So did you go sign up for school?" Duo asked.
"Yep." Kyna said as she walked back over to her bed and sat down.
"What electives did you choose?" Duo asked following Kyna and also sitting on her bed.
"Art." Kyna replied.
"That's it?"
"Yup."
"You didn't sign up for choir or anything?"
"Nope."
"Why not?"
"I told you. I just don't feel like singing anymore."
"Oh. Okay. Well I'm going to go make a phone call." Duo got up and walked out of the room.
Kyna just sat on the bed. Ten minutes later Duo walked back in the room. "Hey, the school wants you to go
back down there." he said.
"Why?" Kyna asked puzzled.
"Because they need you to try out for choir."
Duo's gonna get it now. Well what happens, does Kyna go, or does she beat Duo into the ground? Please
review.
