^Masaka^ was the thought going through Heero's head. ^She can't be the informant I'm supposed to meet^ (Heheheheheheh!!! It seems he hasn't figured it out yet...heheheheh)

"Yuy!"

Heero's head snapped up in attention. The professor had just called him.

"You have a message from the office."

Heero stood up, walked up to the front of the classroom to receive the message. He took one glance at it, then at his watch before saying to the professor, "Excuse me, I need to go." He was dismissed, so he went back to his desk, grabbed his stuff and left the class.

^Who the hell writes like that anymore^ was the thought running through Heero's head as he headed towards the school garden. He reviewed what he had just read.

Pilot 01,

I cordially invite you to join me at high noon at the Peacecraft Academy Gardens for a nice little chat. It is strictly business of course so please do not be late. Meet me in the Silver Millenium Garden at the Water Blossom Lily Pond. I hope to see you there. Good Day.
Silencechilde


^This means that Hotaru can't be the informant, she's still in class. ^

He hurried to the garden and walked to the pond. He never visited the gardens for some reason, he felt, for some odd reason, uncomfortable among the bright flowers that always saw the shining sun. As he stood next to the pond, he felt at peace with himself, at peace with his past. He fell into a trancelike state thinking about a pair of beautifully innocent lavender violet eyes. He broke out of his trance when a soft voice said, "Please sit down Mr. Yuy."

He looked up to the voice in slight surprise and apprehension, the informant was going to be revealed. He looked into the tree from which the voice originated to find Hotaru sitting there, looking at him seriously. "Anta...."

She smiled her secret smile and answered to his surprised look (no he doesn't really look surprised but she can tell), "Surprised much? I wasn't planning on revealing myself so soon, but then I figured, it would make my whole double identity thing a bit too much. Anyway, this way I won't need to waste time sending you all those notes."

"Well....then what did you want to talk about?"

"Umm....any other questions before we discuss our actual business, I don't think this is the right place to discuss this, besides I believe I know a few others who would like to join in on this conversation."

"Tenou-san to...Xara?" (He just said that in Japanese. The "to" means "and")

She nodded. "Why don't we head to a place where we can talk without attracting too much attention, we're supposed to be in class or off campus."

"Hn. How did you get out of class so quick? You arrived before me."

"Well, for one thing, I was excused right after you left, and I didn't arrive before you, I arrived a second after you and sat in the tree while you were staring off into nowhere."

"Why the name Silencechilde?"

"I was going to write Saturnchild, but #1, it was too obvious it would be me, and #2, it didn't seem to match the words I was writing on the page."

At this point, they were off campus and in a little wooded area behind the school. They sat down on the steps of a shrine and continued to talk about random things, never once mentioning war, their pasts, or their missions.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

"We'd better get ready for our matches today, we will hopefully be finishing them today. I don't know how much longer I'm gonna wanna think about the tournament." [heheheh....these come right out of you head huh FR? Don't wanna write about the tournament anymore huh?] (well, it's just that it would take many more of these overly long chapters to write it out, so I'm gonna cut it short, I'm just gonna tell you the results of the whole tournament. If anyone wants to write them for I'll be glad to let them, but otherwise, I'll have to write them in when I edit/rewrite this story.)

"Me neither." So the headed to their training hall to prepare for their matches.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
The Tournament: I'll only be stating the winners...

Ayanami vs. Masaki: Masaki

Maxwell vs. Kailu: Maxwell

Kinomoto vs. Shiro: Shiro

Neko vs. Yuy: Yuy

Tsukishiro vs. Saturn (Hotaru's name to the rest of the world is still Hitoe Saturn): Saturn

The Quarter Finals:

Masaki vs. Maxwell: Maxwell

Shiro vs. Yuy: Yuy

(Because Hotaru doesn't have a match here, she needs to wait until the 2 losers fight and fight the winner of them, then work her way up....it was a slight miscalculation on my part when I made the matches.)

Masaki vs. Shiro: Masaki

Semi-Finals:

Maxwell vs. Yuy: Yuy

Masaki vs. Saturn: Saturn

Finals....I'm actually gonna describe what happens!!!!!!!!!

Yuy vs. Saturn: Both of them were tired, they had fought pretty hard and were pretty cut up as well. Clef had offered to let them finish the finals the next day, but both were determined to finish that day, so he had reluctantly let them continue.

^I wonder how much pain she can withstand, she can definitely withstand more than Duo. She might be the informant, but she isn't a gundam pilot, she might not be able to last longer, I'm going to need to pull attacks a bit.^

^If he pulls his punches, then I'm going have to pull them as well...he doesn't know I'm the gundam pilot....does he?^

They started out their fighting with the normal double-edged sword. And though she was fairly good with the sword, she wasn't good enough, in no time Heero smashed through her sword and was about to have her neck, but she ducked beneath and sweeped under him. He had seen this move from her before so he was able to avoid it at the cost of having he under his sword. She used this time to back flip over to the weapons rack to grab another weapon. She grabbed the wooded katana, and sent a flurry of attacks towards Heero, this was definitely knew, she was using ki (chi) attacks. He blocked them with his sword and attacked her back sending his own ki into the attacks. At one point their ki was so high that their weapons were thrown back (to the dismay of the onlookers who had to dodge the flying weapons and ki.) They then opted for hand-to-hand combat; this took them a long time too. No one had the advantage here so as if by an unspoken agreement, they both stopped their attacks and picked their weapons up. Heero still had his sword, but Hotaru had walked back to the racks to look at the glaives. Most everyone's thought were: ^ There is no way she can use them. They're extremely hard to use, and only those who train with those for lifetimes can possibly use them. Not only that, but those have some hella heavy metal. ^

Heero on the other hand was thinking something else...^ she must be very skilled if she's going to use that, only Duo's seriously able to swing anything like that, and he's using the easier version because the blade sticks and cuts out. But the glaive is different, it doesn't cut in as much...^

To most people's surprise, she picked it up rather effortlessly and swung it down a few times to test it, satisfied, she walked back onto the mat ready for the next and hopefully last part of the match. They got into their battle stances, then in lightning action, Hotaru slashed out barely giving Heero any time to block the attack. ^ Kuso! She's fast! ^ She kept attacking, barely giving Heero any time to block her attacks. ^ She might be fast, but at this rate she won't have any energy left to seriously fight me, unless she thinks she's going to work me off the mat or something. ^ Hotaru tired after a few minutes of relentless attacks, she finally paused long enough for Heero to deal a very powerful blow down sending his ki out as well. Hotaru held her glaive up to block it, but was knocked back off the mat by the force officially ending and losing the match to Heero Yuy.

"Well that was definitely some intense fighting, and though I'm sure you guys can still polish some of your attacks, there isn't much I can teach you guys. Tomorrow I'll post the final results of the entire tournament, so until then get some rest." Clef then added as an afterthought while people were heading out the door, "Yuy, Saturn, may I have a word with the two of you?"

They walked back from where they were in the room and looked at him expectantly. "You guys are waaaaayy tooo skilled for this class, you don't need to come, in fact, a bunch of you don't really need to come because you guys are way past my level of teaching. Well at least way past the level I wish to teach. You can tell Tsukishiro Yue, Duo Maxwell, Masaki Ryoko, and Ruby Moon that they don't really need to come either, they're good enough to learn harder techniques. Thanks."

With that they were about to head off, but once again they were interrupted, this time however, by Haruka Tenou. "That was definitely a good match. I suppose you've already told him your identity due to the fact that you both cut class and had an especially long talk together huh?" He winked at the both of them who just stared back blankly. "Geez you two lighten up." Haruka sweatdropped, then muttered, "To think they used to think I was too high strung..."

Hotaru smiled slightly commenting, "You sound like Duo, complaining about everything especially about us being so...high strung..."

Heero snorted. "No kidding..."

Haruka sweatdropped again. "Does this mean there'll be four of us at dinner tonight over at Xara's?"

"Hai."

Heero looked at Hotaru from the side. ^ She's still hiding something. ^


Well that only took about a month or something to update.....sorry about that, but it's just that I haven't had time....Winter break I was off in Taiwan and China with my choir and we had bunches of extra practices before that so I didn't have time with all my homework....then there were finals when break was over...and because of finals my brain was fried leaving me with a slight writer's block. So now I've finally updated...and I hope to update Shinigami no Koi within this week or the next as well as soon as I get the time to....Oh and if anybody seriously wants to write the fight scenes for me that would be greatly appreciated, just email me at toolipz87@yahoo.com or send a hella long review....thanks for reading!! Ja! Oh and please Review....i love reviews!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
