Chapter 21 Victor vs. Rhyu
Victor slowly opened his only to see a blinding light; he had to blink a few times until his eyes adjusted to the light. He sat up only to grip his side in pain. "You should stay lying down." Said a voice from the corner he looked only to see a woman who looked like an older version of Leilani.
"Vice Admiral Yuy." said Victor
"Yes, but you can call me Mrs. Yuy." said Luna as she talked to her daughter's boyfriend for the first time.
"Were is Leilani?" asked Victor
"She is having her arm be put back into place." said Luna
"What about the colony?" asked Victor
"It's under our control." said Luna "Don't worry your safe, just rest now when you wake up Leilani will be right next to you."
"Alright." said Victor as he closed his eyes.
"It has been a long time." said Heero as he lowered himself to the ground.
"Yes it has." said Quatra "Thank you for coming Heero. Thank you for helping my colony."
"Truth be told Quatra, I came for my daughter not your colony." said Heero "She is on our ship now getting medical care."
"Understandable a parent's first instinct is to protect their kids." said Trowa
"Trowa, I still can't believe it's really you." said Quatra with a smile "I thought you had disappeared never to be seen again."
"Well this war forced me out of my hiding." Said Trowa
"Why did you even go into hiding?" asked Quatra
"Relena would have forced me to follow Duo's and Zech's path of forced militarization." said Trowa "So I decided to leave the battlefield."
"I understand." said Heero "I may be in the military but most of the time I spend doing paperwork and training students."
"But what have you been doing?" asked Quatra
"I actually work for you, Quatra." said Trowa as Quatra raised an eyebrow "I am one of the mobile suit repair crew."
"For the few suits we keep around for moving objects in space?" asked Quatra
"Yes." said Trowa "other then that I got married and had a son."
"Really?" asked Quatra "Do they know about you being a gundam pilot?"
"My wife yes, it wouldn't have been right to marry her and not tell her about my past." said Trowa "However my son is in for a shook."
"I can believe that." said Heero before he looked back at Quatra "Quatra I need to ask you for your permission to have my mobile suits stationed here."
"Heero, I hate the fact that the world has come to this but I don't really have a choose. Yes you can have your mobile suit stationed here." Said Quatra
"Heero if I can ask you a question."
"What is it Trowa?" asked Heero
"Were do you want my suit?" asked Trowa "I have already picked my side might as well fight."
"Trowa I think it would be better if you protect this colony." said Heero
"You think that they launch a counter attack?" asked Quatra
"I know they will." said Heero
Meanwhile onboard the Seraphim Rhyu stared from the doorway at the sleeping teen. "Rhyu what are you doing?" asked Umize as he walked up to Rhyu
"Nothing just waiting for Leilani to wake up." said Rhyu
"Please tell me you are not going to ask her out." said Siegel as he appeared along with Mayu
"And why wouldn't I?" asked Rhyu
"Because her boyfriend is right there." said Siegel
"Ya, I would kill anyone who asked Aleena in front of me." said Umize with a smile as he remember the girlfriend.
"Well you two have been dating for what three years?" asked Rhyu
"Four." said Umize with a smile
"I thought you were going to ask her to marry you soon?" asked Siegel
"I was going to ask her father permission the day we were called in for the meeting telling us about the whole ship from this universe." said Umize
"I see besides Leilani doesn't have a boyfriend." said Rhyu
"What do you call the boy sleeping beside her?" asked Siegel
"Who…the preventer?" asked Rhyu as Siegel nodded his head. "A prisoner of war."
"I don't think so." said Mayu softly trying not to look Rhyu in the eyes "Leilani said she and Victor got along very well and became very close."
"He is a natural." said Rhyu
"Rhyu you do realize that Leilani's dad, Mayu's, mine and yours mom are a natural." said Umize
"That isn't what I mean, I worded that wrong." said Rhyu "But he is from another universe."
"My husband is from another universe." said a voice as the pilots turned to see Luna standing there.
"Well." said Rhyu as he tried to find a reason.
"You better not say because he was our enemy because then we will have to beat you up." said Umize as up put his finger in Rhyu's face. "Because that covers all our parents."
"Fine but I don't see how Leilani could fall for someone with such long hair tied back in that dumb braid." said Rhyu as he ran his hand though his blond locks.
"My daughter didn't seam to mind while they were making out in the backyard." Said Luna as Rhyu eyes widened.
"What!" asked Rhyu as he turned to glare at Victor.
"Rhyu let it go." ordered Siegel
"Why should I, Leilani is my girlfriend." snapped Rhyu
"She went on one date with you what two years ago?" asked Umize
"One year, eight months." said Rhyu
"See, it's time to let go." said Siegel as they walked away leaving Rhyu to stare at Victor.
Meanwhile down on Earth Relena watched the news with a mix of anger and disgust. She saw the images coming out of Quatra's colony of Preventer soldier's shooting unharmed protesters and the same soldiers tying up people in their own homes as they searched their homes. However the image from the hanger were Dimitri shoot first before turning his gun on Leilani.
"President Dorland we have a huge problem on our hands." said her political aid "Your popularity has fallen to only 45% on earth that is down almost 30 points since the beginning of the war. And that was before this came out; the public is not behind this war anymore."
"Then make them fall in line." snapped Relena as more images of Coordinators helping build things for the people of Mars. "They need to see that Coordinators are bad!"
"Really we are bad?" asked a voice as an image of a red haired woman in a white uniform appeared in front of her.
"Lunamaria Yuy." said Relena with hate and distain in her voice as she glared at Luna. "I thought we had removed your ability to get into our hologram projection system."
"Relena I just can't understand you." said Luna as she looked at her enemy. "When Heero first told me about you, he made you sound like such a agent of peace but here we are fighting a war you started."
"I started this war?" yelled Relena as she slammed her fist into her desk "It was the fact that your kind exist that started this war."
"Relena tell me how did the fact that we exist in another universe effect you?" asked Luna
"You guys took Heero away from me!" yelled Relena
"Do you believe in God Relena?" asked Luna as Relena blinked.
"What?"
"Do you believe in a God Relena Dorland?" asked Luna
"Of course he has a plan for all of us and his plan for me is to remove every last coordinator from both universes." said Relena "Nothing happens without his approval."
"If that is true then it was all in God's plan to have Heero come to our universe, to fall in love with a coordinator and have not one but two coordinator children." said Luna as Relena glared at her "Therefore it was in his plan that you and Heero would never be together."
"Is there a point behind this visit?" asked Relena
"Simple you have caused too much pain to be left alive." said Luna
"Heero would never let you kill me." said Relena with a grin "Deep down he still loves me."
"I don't believe that." said Luna with a laugh "He has the been the one calling for your death since the beginning."
"Like I would take the word form a coordinator." said Relena
"And you will use coordinators to destroy us?" asked Luna
"I will do anything to destroy the enemies of mankind even if I have to fight as dirty like you." said Relena
"Believe me Relena you have not seen anything yet." said Luna "And by trying to kill our daughter both Heero and I will not stop until you pay ten fold." With that Luna's image disappeared.
Victor opened his eyes and looked over to see Leilani sleeping in a bed beside him. Slowly he sat up holding his healing side.
"So your up." Said a voice he had only heard only in interested messages. He turned to see a blonde haired blue eye boy standing on the other side of Leilani's bed. Slowly Victor stood up and looked Rhyu in the eyes.
"Hello I don't think we meet I am Victor Maxwell."
"I know who you are and cut the bull you know me." said Rhyu
"Alright, Rhyu Elsmen what do you want?" asked Victor
"For you to understand that you don't belong with Leilani." said Rhyu "You know nothing about her do you."
"Like what?" asked Victor
"Like when her birthday is ." said Rhyu with a grin
"May 4th, she told me while we were watching the stars." said Victor with a bigger grin. "Care to try again or do you just wait to admit the fact that she likes me not you?"
"Will you two just stop?" asked Leilani as she sat up causing both boys to jump back.
"Leilani?" asked a stunned Rhyu and Victor.
"Yes, now Rhyu shut your mouth." Said Leilani as Victor grinned "That goes for you too Victor. Now Rhyu I don't like you and I am sorry that I gave you false hope when I asked you out."
"Leilani, you don't mean that." said Rhyu with a grin.
"Yes, I do and it is time that you move on and except that." said Leilani "Now as for you Victor stop trying to show off that you and I are a couple you have nothing to worry about from Rhyu or anyone else."
"I am sorry." said Victor
"Good now both of you shut up I am trying to sleep." said Leilani as she lied back down as the two teenage boys just looked at each other.
Meanwhile Leilani's parents were meeting with the doctor "So how bad is our daughter's injures?" asked Luna
"Not as bad as originally thought." said the doctor "She should be out of her bed in less then a week and two weeks after that she will be able to pilot a mobile suit again."
"So a week and a half." said Heero as the doctor looked at him. "Leilani is too much like me, she will put herself back into a mobile suit before she is ready."
I am sorry that I couldn't get this out yesterday, but last week was mid-term finials so my brain was fried sorry. I would like to thank everyone who reviewed and I would ask that you keep on reading and reviewing. Thanks Wilkins75.
