Dragon of Fate Chapter 7: Umi's past

Umi knocked on the door and opened it, with Heero behind her. HeeroGundamwing was on top of Heero's shoulder, like a child.

Palomino looked at them. She was Prue's mother. She looked upset. They turned to look through the glass window. Prue was lying there, living on a life support machine for now.

" What did the doctor say?" Umi asked. " She's fine, just that it might take a while before she wakes up. It could be 2 years, or maybe forever…" Palomino told them. " How's her injury?" Heero asked. " It's fatal, she hit the ground hard which caused her to have brain damage. The doctor said that it was the main reason she was in a coma. But even if she wakes up, she might lose her memory." She told them.

Lose her memory… it happened to her once… But she lived on fine. " Can we go in?" Umi asked. Palomino nodded. They went in, HeeroGundamwing placed a bouquet of flowers on the table. Prue looked like she was sleeping. Umi sat down on the chair and looked at Heero. " Not that I really want to know, but what exactly happened to the driver?" Umi asked, Heero closed the door.

" Brian told me that this man had been robbing the bank nearby then. Prue was crossing the road; it was a pedestrian green light. The cops were chasing the robber, so he dashed. He knocked over Prue but continued driving. The cops stopped to help Prue. Brian followed the car, with a motorcycle.

" He saw the driver's car in an alley. When he went to check it out, the man was already dead. 6 shots in the heart. As usual, they weren't normal bullets, one killed him straight away. He found the Dragon of Fate symbol drawn on the car's hood." Heero told her softly.

Umi took Prue's hand in hers. She closed her eyes and tried to "feel" her. Mare taught her, said that it's the way to see their spirit or sense if their lost soul are near. If she brings their soul back, they will wake up. Umi had no idea what she meant, but she tried it before. It worked; a patient that had been in a coma for 6 years finally woke up. However, he woke up to a new life, a life where everyone forgot him…

She felt a pat on her shoulder; it caused her to lose her focus. " Umi, what are you doing?" HeeroGundamwing asked. " Nothing." she told him. Heero was glancing out of the window. Umi closed her eyes again, she tried to sense for Prue. She saw the Yuy house, pictures of rooms scanned through her mind.

Where was Prue? Her school… the schoolgirls locker room…and there was this garden. It had a beautiful white fountain. Birds were taking a drink from there. She saw Prue, she was sitting on the ledge of the fountain.

" Prue?" She called out to her, Prue looked at her, then she disappeared, like she dissolved and teleported somewhere else. Umi looked around for her again. This time, she was seeing a lot of empty places all at once. She came across a violin case on the table. She touched it, the box sprang open, revealing a well-polished violin. Then, she was brought to a playground with 6 swings. On the last one, Prue was sitting down there. She was playing on the swing with a sad look.

" Prue, don't run anymore." Umi told her. " I want to be in a coma forever. There are so many places I can go and see. I don't have to go to school or stupid violin lessons anymore." Prue told Umi, she sounded excited.

" Look Prue, I understand that you hate the pressure your parents placed on you. But please bear in mind that you are the one and only daughter they have." Umi told Prue, Prue shook her head. " I got a twin brother, he couldn't stand this kind of life too. So, he left home. He got adopted and now lives a new life faraway from us. He never contacted us again, except Heero." Prue told Umi,

" Heero? Why him?" Umi asked. " They were closer, Heero never really went through this parent only wishes you to be the best thing. But he understood him. He gave him a new life… He didn't take me with him… I begged him to, but Heero felt that it was best if I stayed as part of the Yuy family." Prue told her.

Umi sat down beside Prue, on the next swing. " They shouldn't have had me. My age was fake, I felt like I was a fake. Not even a clone… I lost my only twin… now there's no one except grandmother at home. It's so lonely." Prue told her. Umi smiled. " I felt that way too, but then, I always think to myself that if you can't even stand being on your own, you will not be able to see what comes after it." Umi told her.

" What do you mean?" Prue asked. " They often said that there's a rainbow after the rain. I guess that if you withstand being on your own again, fate will bring you something good in return." Umi told her.

" What did fate bring you?" Prue asked. Umi smiled at Prue. " Fate brought me my career, I love singing. Whenever I feel lost or lonely, I will sing. Then I will no longer feel that I am lonely." Umi told Prue. She just stared at her. " You see Prue, there are 2 million children who are orphans. They are forced to live in orphanage or forced to live on the streets. You have a house, with a warm and big family. Isn't that enough to make you an fortunate person?" Umi asked.

" Money isn't everything to us Card Captors, we can magic them all the time. But, it still does not buy you a family that truly loves you. Why regret it after you lose it? Why not cherish it so that you will never have to be like them. Cherish them." She told Prue softly.

" Isn't there something you hope that fate could change?" Prue asked. " I hoped that fate would not cause my parents to be so busy that they even missed my birthday…" Prue told Umi, she started to cry.

" I too hope that fate could change something. I wish that I died 2 years ago." Umi told Prue, Prue looked shocked. Umi smiled slightly. " It's a long story, I will tell you only if you wake up." Umi told Prue. " I will think about it." Prue told her.

" 3 days, Prue. 3 days is all the time you have and all that I am going to give you." Umi told Prue. Prue looked like she wanted to argue, Umi cut in.

" Go see him, your twin. Something tells me that you long to see him. Don't take too long." Umi told her and stood up, she turned to walk away. " Tell Heero that I… am sorry." Prue whispered. " No, you should tell him, no… you should not apologize to Heero. It should be your parents." Umi told her softly and then, she lost sight of the surroundings and the playground.

She opened her eyes, time had not changed yet. Umi looked at Prue, Heero took HeeroGundamwing's hand and steer him out of the room. Umi smiled and followed them out. They were walking towards the car park when Heero let go of HeeroGundamwing. HeeroGundamwing disappeared into the shop at the basement.

" You met Prue." Heero told her softly. " How did you know?" Umi asked. " I can tell." He told her, his Prussian Blue eyes meeting hers directly. Umi looked away. Somehow, she could not bring herself to stare straight into his eyes. It was not the fact that she did anything wrong or bad, she was just afraid of falling into his trap. Plus, it suddenly added colour to her cheeks.

HeeroGundamwing returned with a big lollipop. He was licking it when something else caught his attention. " Umi, why do you look so flushed?" He asked. Umi blushed again; she hated it when someone pointed out the fact that she was blushing.

" Now HeeroGundamwing, it's not funny to embarrass someone like that." Heero told him. HeeroGundamwing smiled and continued licking his lollipop. " So, it is okay if we take a life home with you?" Star asked them, Heero looked at Umi. " No, it's fine, I can go home by myself. After all, it won't make your car look cool if it's not a sports car." Umi told him. " It's okay, Heero has his way. Anyway, I have candy work to do. Bye!" HeeroGundamwing told them and left, still licking his lollipop happily.

" Is he working?" Umi asked, Heero shook his head in response. " He's just meeting his pals." He told her and pressed a button on his remote. His car stopped right in front of them. " Why did he address them as candy work?" Umi asked, Heero laughed slightly. " He didn't say that. What HeeroGundamwing meant was that he was meeting his pals to finish up the lollipop he bought." Heero told her, Umi blushed again, and she made a fool out of herself. " He wasn't saying it clearly." Umi told him.

" It takes sometime to understand his words. They are deep." He told her, Umi felt like the last three words were an insult to her. " Get in?" Heero asked. " No, I wouldn't want to sit in a car with someone who has so much depth." Umi told him softly. " Well, you can always walk home." He told her. " Appreciate the offer, but I would have to decline, I am taking neither of the choices." She told her. He raised an eyebrow at her.

" I am taking the train." Umi told him, he smiled slightly. " Let's go then." He told her. " Aren't you driving?" Umi asked. " No, I would rather be thought as a gentleman. Plus, I have some work to do." He told her. Gentleman? Umi thought to herself. " I heard that." He told her. " Heero, it's not right to read someone's mind that often." She told him as they walked towards the lift. " And why is it not right?" He asked her softly, pressing the button with an up button.

" It's a form of invasion of someone's privacy." She told him softly. The lift came and they entered the empty lift.

Standing in the train, Umi smiled at a child that was with her parents.

" I want ice-cream…" The girl begged, Umi watched her mother sighed and promised her daughter.

" Why, don't you have your childhood too?" Heero asked her, he was standing beside her. Umi sighed and shook her head, her attention turning to Star, then to Heero again. She met his gaze and looked at the child again. She looked so happy.

" I lost my memory… I only remember what happened 2 years ago." Umi told him. Before Heero could answer, the train braked and Umi was thrown forwards slightly, he held onto her. After the train steadied itself, he let go of her. Umi thanked him.

" So you do not remember your childhood?" Heero asked, Umi nodded. " It felt like I lost ¾ parts of my life. I only remember waking up in a hospital, then that was the start. Nothing else." She told him sadly.

" Hey, thinking back, yours won't be as bad as mine." Heero whispered softly. Umi looked at him. " Why will you say that?" She asked him. " I lost my family when I was 1. An assassin adopted me. He taught me how to fight. Then 4 years later, he died. During these 4 years, we have been training and moving all around the world. Then, I met Doctor J. Then it's the war. Now, I am a Card Captor." He told her.

" It's amazing that you are mature at your age." She told him, he raised an eyebrow at her. " You look like you are 25, but you are only 18. Yet you already excel a lot more than others." Umi told him, he smiled slightly. " Speaking of which, you do not strike me as someone who uses magic." Heero told her, Umi smiled and looked at Star.

" Why take the shortcut when you can enjoy it more the normal way? Plus, why suffer for so long just to learn?" Umi asked him.

That night,

Umi tucked HeeroGundamwing into bed. She was surprised when he asked her to. Somehow, HeeroGundamwing reminded her of a young child. She watched him sleep peacefully. Star was playing a lullaby softly. Umi sighed and stood up. " Come, let's go." She told Star. Star allowed the lullaby to fade out and they went out of the room. Umi closed the door and turned to see Heero walking towards her.

He stopped before her. " He's asleep?" He asked her. Umi nodded and looked at Heero. " Heero, bring Prue back." Umi whispered. " She will return after she sort her thoughts out. There is no point rushing her to come home." He told her softly. Umi shifted out of the way to allow Heero to open the door.

" Actually Heero, knowing what happened is better than not knowing anything. In turn, I feel that you should look at the positive side of your childhood. It made you a hero, worthy of the name Heero. That's why you are here now." Umi told him softly, Heero didn't answer nor did he move. Umi smiled faintly and walked back towards her room.

Who is she? Why did he feel like she could read him so well?

Sitting by the edge of her bed, Umi pushed her hair back behind her ears. Her fingers then gently run themselves through her long, smooth and silky golden blonde hair. She sighed to herself, Star changed Umi's clothes to her nightgown. She whispered thanks and walked up to the table. There was a photo frame there. She picked it up and found herself staring at the happy family.

" Umi, come on, it's late." Star told her, flying over and looking at the photo over her shoulder. Umi set the photo frame down on the table again. Family? She thought as she slept.

Umi's past

Umi had been dreaming of her past again…

She found herself staring at the bright and blinding light on the ceiling. A doctor was talking to her but she couldn't hear a word. She just stared. For 3 days, she kept staring, asking herself who she was and where she was. Then, this girl came in and closed the door. She sat down on the chair next to the bed. She sighed and took Umi's hand in hers. Umi looked at her with a blank look.

" Umi, the doctor told us that you lost all of your memory. Anyway, I am Mare Ryuuzaki. Your younger sister and we are twins." She told her and smiled. But Umi could tell that this girl who claims to be her sister was faking that smile. " It's just so hard to believe that you are lying here, staring back at me. Yet, you have no idea who I am…" Mare told her softly, Umi watched as this girl lowered her head. Her hair was blocking her eyes out. But Umi felt the droplets of water falling onto her hand. Umi stared up at the empty ceiling again. She could only see that light…

" It's okay." Umi whispered, the girl was shocked, she stared at her. Their eyes locked. " There's always a way out." Umi told her and smiled. She saw Mare's eyes widened back in return.

" Is something wrong?" Umi asked her. Mare stood up, dropping Umi's hand. " No, there's nothing wrong at all." Mare said. But the way she sounded told Umi the truth. She left quickly after that. Umi sat up on the bed; she saw Mare talking to a man and a woman outside. The woman was hugging her. Mare was crying… Umi blinked, confused as to what was going on.

" She's not the same anymore." Umi heard Mare saying it when the man pushing the door open. She studied him, Mare had his eyes… That means he was Mare's father… as well as hers. He closed the door and sat down beside her.

" Umi, I know that it is tough on you. But no matter what happens, you are always our Umi. No matter how much you change, the blood that runs in you never do. We will love you more than ever." He told her and then hugged her. Umi only stared blankly at the wall. Her shoulder was getting wet… She heard him sniff. Umi's blank face softened.

1 week later,

Umi stared at the photograph of her family. Light was driving her to her university. It was funny how she could attend at the age of 15. And she was restudying. There was a thick book of papers telling her what her CCA was. What to do during classes and where to go. Light stopped the car at the traffic light. Umi looked at Star, the machine had been following her around lately. " Miss Umi, Star is here to protect you, you do not have to fear it." He told her. Umi looked at the old man in the driver's seat. Light was Umi's butler. She now lived in her own mansion.

It was 1 block away from the main mansion where the rest of the family was. They visited her sometimes, but they often ended up crying. Umi felt restricted cause what ever she said or did brought tears to their eyes. She didn't know what she should do to make them feel better…

" Miss Umi, I am aware that you are upset with the arrangement." Light told her. " No, I am fine with it… Mr Light, May I know how I got into an accident?" She asked him. The driver seems to freeze for a while. " Well, didn't Sir and Madam tell you?" He asked her, Umi shook her head.

" You see Miss Umi, you were shot. We couldn't find out who that person was. But, when the doctors got to you… It was already too late… They were about to throw in the white towel when… your heart started pumping again. They believe that it was a miracle. It was only when you woke up that we all found out that you lost all of your memories." He told her softly.

" I should have died." Umi told him softly. " No Miss, you must not say that. Fate wanted you to live. That's why you must continue to live." Light told Umi. But it didn't convince her.

Umi saw Mare with her friends. They waved at her, Umi just turned away. Mare was looking at her. " What's wrong with her?" Her friend asked.

After school, Umi knocked on the door of the swimming Club. It was her CCA. She opened the door; everyone had already lined up and was waiting for the teacher to come.

" Umi, go change." They told her. Umi was certain that no one knew about her accident. She wondered if she used to swim well. Star gave her the locker's combination. Umi changed into the school's swimsuit. She tied her hair up and placed it under a swimming cap. Taking her robe, she went to assemble. The teacher took their attendance and they started warming up. Umi was next to this girl who had red long hair. Her name was Hannah, from her information, she was her CCA friend. Everyone started whispering when they teacher left for a while. Then the girls sounded excited.

" What's wrong?" Umi asked, Hannah tiptoed and sighed. " The guys are here." She told her, rolling her eyes. The girls started shouting and some waved, signaling to their boyfriends. Umi watched the 20 men in their swimming trunks. Each had six pads. And some winked at the girls, the girls were acting like excited desperate females. The teacher blew the whisper and 8 jumped started and started swimming.

" Oh, it's Joshua." Hannah told Umi, nudging her. Umi was confused, who was Joshua? She looked at Star. He's someone who has a crush on you. And the captain of the Boys Swimming Club. He's the champion and had won gold for every section he took part in. Star mind linked her. (Talking through the mind, only Umi could hear it.)

The girls cheered as the guys swam 3 laps, Joshua touched the ending point first. The rest were still half a lap away. The teachers seem to excuse Joshua. He got out of the pool and he looked at them. The girls around them started cheering again. Joshua was handsome and charming. He had short blonde hair and his eyes were crystal blue in colour. He winked at them, the girls started screaming again. Their teacher blew the whistle to calm them down.

" Oh go on!" Hannah told Umi and pushed her towards the front. Umi almost stumbled; the girls in front of her won't budge. " Hey Ashton, get a towel, you will catch a cold." The male teacher shouted. He ran his hand through his short hair and watched the second place come out of the pool. A girl from their club walked over and handled them their towels.

" Seriously Umi, you should go there." Hannah told her. " Why?" Umi asked confused. " Oh come on! He has a crush on you and everyone notices Joshua. He's the best choice a woman can want." She told her. " Wait, I am 15! He's…." Umi whispered. " He's 20, hey age doesn't matter does it? He's so hot and cute. You will lose your chance if you don't act now." Hannah told her.

" Please, Do I look like the kind who will…" Umi cut herself off, she saw Hannah's eyes widened. Umi turned to face Joshua. His friend was behind him, Umi felt everyone staring at her. " So, I haven't seen you in a week, are you okay?" He asked her softly. Umi looked at the excited Hannah to the jealous gang of girls around her.

" Yeah, I am fine. Thank you for worrying." She told him. Everyone's eyes widened almost instant. Did she say something wrong? Everyone stared at her. " Umi, are you okay?" Hannah whispered. " Yeah, I am. Is something wrong?" Umi whispered back.

You see Umi, you are they kind that belongs to the more violent kind. You hit guys almost all the time and reject them almost every time. And you hate it when boys ask you if you are okay. Star mind linked her. Oh, that piece of paper told her that she belonged to the boyish kind.

But why would anyone like someone like that? She looked at Joshua. She was one head shorter than him.

" Hey, you free on Saturday?" He asked her. " What about that?" She asked softly. He keeps asking you out, just reject him. Star mind linked her. " Well, there's a party that my parents are hosting. And I would like you to be there. As my date." He told her. To tell the truth, he was the straightforward kind.

" I am free on that day." Umi told him and smiled, she could see him blush slightly. " But… on one condition." She told him. " Wow, you are hard to date." He commented. " You have to beat me in swimming." Umi told him. The guys whistled. " Miss Ryuuzaki here wants to challenge Joshua to a swimming match." The guys shouted.

" 3 laps, to and fro." Umi told him, he smiled. " If I win, will you be my date?" He asked. Umi nodded, he smiled again. "Okay, you are on." He told her. Hannah pulled her aside as he left to prepare for the match. " Umi, are you crazy? You always come in 3rd in swimming. And Kimberly (best swimmer in the club) couldn't even beat him. She was 1 lap away from him. You can't win. Plus, you can't cheat." Hannah told her. Umi smiled. " I know I can't beat him, but at least I want to test his spirit." She told her softly. Hannah looked confused.

Umi stood at the jump off stool. She slipped her goggles into place. Can Star swim? She looked at Joshua, he winked back at her. They got into their positions. The blow of the whistle signaled the start of the match. They jumped off and Joshua started swimming. Umi was missing. They watched from the side, wondering where Umi was.

" Ashton, do you see Umi?" He asked when Joshua was going to finish his first lap. He dived under water. " No, there's no sign of her." He told them. Hannah was surprised, where was Umi?

" I wouldn't stop if I were you." Everyone turned and saw Umi resurfacing. " Where were you?" Joshua asked. " Swimming." Umi replied, everyone didn't believe her. " Let's have a rematch." Joshua told her. In actual fact, the minute she jumped in, so did Star. Star had casted an invisible ball around them, making them both invisible.

They did a rematch. But when Umi just finished her first lap, Joshua was already at the turning point. Then, Mare came in at that instant. " Umi, we have to go." Mare called out. Umi looked at Star, she swam over to the ladder and got out of the pool. Joshua watched her go.

" So Saturday?" He asked. Umi looked at him then at Mare, who was blushing and was clearly staring at him. " Yeah, Saturday." She said softly.

The funny thing was, he sent an invitation over and it was a formal party. Mare was surprised when she saw the invitation. But Umi already had plans. She went shopping for a dress with Mare. Mare kept staring at this dress. Umi asked her to do a fitting. Mare was surprised.

" To tell the truth Umi, you never liked wearing skirts." She told her, Umi looked down at the miniskirt she was wearing. " Huh?" She asked. " I mean, you changed that part about you too…" Mare whispered softly.

" You know, Star told me that we used to be very close then. Your classmates always bullied you. And that I would always turn up and punch them in the face for you." Umi told Mare and smiled. " But, that was my forgotten past now. I have changed… and I want to look at it from a positive point of view. So…don't compare me with who and what I was before." She told Mare. Mare looked sad, she didn't know Umi anymore. Umi used to be the kind who hid everything inside and didn't bother to tell anyone. Yet, she was always there to cheer her up.

After they purchased the dress that fits Mare, Mare asked why Umi didn't buy a dress for her date. " Well, I have some orphans to visit that day. So I want you to go in my place." Umi told Mare. Mare blushed instantly. " But Umi… He will notice." Mare told her. " He won't. Just said that you dyed your hair." Umi told Mare and smiled. Umi did manage to check herself out in the mirror; she was more than the pretty kind of girl. But Mare and her were different in the fact that Umi's hair was golden blonde, Mare's hair was blonde.

On Saturday, Umi watched Joshua pick Mare up, she felt happy. It was about time she did something for Mare… After all she had been crying about her lately. Joshua could cheer her up.

" Umi, what are we going to do now?" Star asked, Umi sat down on the edge of the bed and started to cry. " Umi?" Star asked. " I am fine… it's just that everyone keeps comparing me that that tomboy that I used to be… is it so hard to accept me for who I am now?" Umi asked, her tears kept on flowing.

Then, 1 year later,

Umi graduated from the university. Joshua and Mare were a couple. It turned out that he found out that Mare wasn't Umi that night. But things turned out well.

Mare became an agent. Umi shocked them telling them that she wanted to be a star. But… things worked out well. They got used to her and the fact that what's past is the past.

Umi woke up, her hand was around Star. Sitting up on her bed, she saw the opened window. Wind blew in, someone was here before… Umi crossed over to the window. She looked out, no one was there. Slamming the window shut, she coaxed Star back into a sleep.

The last second concluded that Sunday was here. Dragon of Fate was standing on top of a lamppost. He stared down at the fired he caused. Jumping down, he walked over to the man who was under the car. The car had crashed onto him. His legs were broken and the Car was still on top of him. The man was gasping for air. Dragon of Fate saw the fear in the man's eyes as he watched him approach him.

" What did you see?" Dragon of Fate asked. " Nothing sir… I saw nothing." The man said. He was already half dead, there's no way he could survive without enjoying the rest of his life sitting on a wheel chair. Dragon of Fate snapped once, the man died instantly, his organs have burst from the inside. Something like the effects of a nuclear bomb.

Too bad indeed, HeeroGundamwing walked over towards him. " Heero, we got company." He told him. Dragon of Fate turned to hear the siren of the police cars. He transformed back into his original form. HeeroGundamwing turned invisible. He took out his gun and acted like he just arrived.

The police car came and Brian got out.

" You saw anything?" He asked Heero. Heero watched the burning symbol. " No, nothing at all. I only noticed that this man here was already dead when I came." He told Brian.

" God, that's the 6th one these two days." Brian told Heero. Heero then noticed that there was a wallet lying on the floor. Picking it up with gloved hands, he opened it. It was a photo of the dead man with his family. They were celebrating the 7th birthday of his daughter. They looked happy. Funny how humans with magic power can die so easily, just like normal humans. Worthless and only filled with evil and dirty thoughts.

" Heero, come on, we need to comb the place." Brian told him. Heero stood up, he turned and saw a security camera. No shit, he missed it. Brian looked at what he was staring.

" WE might get a clue." He told Heero and turned to approach the building, where the records were all there. There could be people in that building… they might see him transform.

" Stand back everyone." Heero told them. They looked confused. Brian was staring at the puddle of blood, it was shaking… They all turned and looked up at the building. It exploded almost instantly. It threw all of them back. The impact was so great that dust was everywhere. And bits and pieces of glass windows and papers fell and hit the ground. Heero looked at the shadow standing on the wall. When the dust cleared, there was a man dressed in a suit. He was wearing a silver mask, no hat… He had blonde hair. He turned and looked at Heero. Brian stood next to Heero; they stared up at the man there. His shoes had the Dragon of Fate logo on it. " No shit. It's Dragon of Fate!" He exclaimed. The camera he saw burst into flames.

" Wow, it's that Mr Heero Yuy? International hero… no pardon me, I mean Universal hero. You know, you have an excellent fiancé." He told Heero. " You met her?" He asked. " Yeah, she's sweet." The man told him. Brian started shooting, the bullets flew right through him, there was no damage done.

" Don't, put your guns down." Heero told them, they did what they were ordered. " Now, What do you want?" Heero asked Dragon of Fate. " Oh, nothing. I just want to meet you face to face. Your fiancé was singing praises about you, I wonder how good you actually are." He told him. There were flashes of light. Dragon of Fate laughed. " Wow, I didn't realize that I had fans." He exclaimed, they were taking photos of him.

" Aren't you killing us?" Heero asked. " No, that won't be fun. You see, I know who you all are. I am gong to track you down and kill you one by one. After all, I want my picture on the newspaper for once. Go ahead, take as many photos as you want." He exclaimed and roared with laughter. Heero could sense the fear that everyone was experiencing.

" You want to deal with us, you come to me first." Heero told him. Dragon of Fate stopped laughing. " Yeah, I will snatch your fiancé away from you." He told Heero. " Go ahead." Heero told him, that made Dragon of Fate shut up. " Ah, she holds no value in your heart. How about your mother, your sister, your brothers and wait, your niece? Ah, she's an excellent choice. She's in a coma isn't it?" He asked.

" Get her if you want to. You wouldn't, only people with no guts attack people who are half dead." Heero barked back. " I am so scared." Dragon of Fate exclaimed. Heero felt like killing this fake, HeeroGundamwing was so good at acting.

" Get Belmont if you want, after all, he knows where the Star of Hope is." Heero told him. " Ah, interesting topic. Well, I can't go bursting into the heavens. Everyone up there will see me. Plus, I can't kill dead people again." He told Heero. Dragon of Fate looked up at the moon. " It's nice knowing you, Heero. I will take my leave now. After all, Sunday is a family day." He told them and he vanished.

" Do you think he will aim Prue?" Brian asked. " No, he only kills people who did something wrong. Just make sure that you do not do bad things." He told them. Damn that HeeroGundamwing.

Umi was woke up, she was shocked to stare into a pair of eyes that had the same colour as Heero's. She was so shocked that she couldn't scream.

" HeeroGundamwing get off the bed, you are scaring Umi." Heero told HeeroGundamwing. HeeroGundamwing smiled and greeted her, he rolled over and started jumping on the bed. Umi felt the effect of the earthquake.

" What's wrong?" Umi asked as she slipped on her white jacket. " Well, HeeroGundamwing suggested that we all go out today." Heero told Umi.

Flashback,

Heero scolded HeeroGundamwing for posing as Dragon of Fate without him knowing. " Hey, can we go out with Umi today?" HeeroGundamwing asked. " Why?" Heero asked.

" Well, I want to see how she fits into to family." He told him. " I thought you hate her." He told him. " She's okay. I just wanted to make sure that she's who she claims to be." HeeroGundamwing told him. " You are testing her?" Heero asked. " In a way, besides, just say that I miss having my mother." HeeroGundamwing told Heero. " You had no mother." Heero told him. "I know, but she doesn't." HeeroGundamwing told him and grinned.

" I want to go out." HeeroGundamwing told her and started throwing pillows around. " Okay, relax." Umi told him and tried to calm him down. HeeroGundamwing sat down on the bed and watched Umi. " Are you free?" Umi asked Heero. " Yeah, I can get leave anytime." He told her. " Are you free?" HeeroGundamwing asked.

" I am afraid that I am not. I have to meet my parents today." She told them. HeeroGundamwing looked angry, he started throwing a tantrum. " Well, I am free after that. Can I get dressed first?" She asked them. Heero carried HeeroGundamwing over his shoulder and left the room. He placed him down on the floor, HeeroGundamwing gave him a high-five.
