Torn between the Past and Present

Part 13

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hi. One of the reviewers (Mara) asked me when I was going to explain why Heero and Amber got married. I hate to say this but it will be after Sammy, Sophie, and Reuben are rescued and that might be the second to the last chapter. I'll try to drop some hints and we'll see what happens.

 "When are they going to give us food? It's been twenty hours," Sammy moaned. She was laying on the ground while Reuben and Sophie sat, leaning against the wall.

 "When they do give it to us I'm not goin'  to eat it," Reuben said.

 "Why?" Sammy asked, looking at him.

 "Because they'll poison it and kill us all," Reuben said.

 "THAT IS IT! IF I HEAR THE WORD 'POISON' AGAIN, I WILL HURT YOU!" Sophie screamed at her brother.

 "But…" Reuben started before Sophie cut in.

 "If they wanted us dead, they would of shot us at the mansion, you baka. And Sammy it has not been twenty hours, it has been five," Sophie said. Annoyance filled her jaded eyes and was on the boarder line of anger.

 "Could you please tell me how you know that?" Sammy asked, trying not to cross her sister.

 "I have a watch," she said.

 "Oh," Sammy said and looked at the ceiling.

 "So what was Rebecca like?" Relena asked. Heero look at her for a moment.

 "You," he finally said, "when we weren't fighting."

 "What do you mean?" Relena asked, slightly blushing . They were walking around, outside the hospital.

 "When I first meet her, I thought I had found you all over again. But after I moved in with her, we started fighting. After Reuben was born it became an everyday thing. Till one night when she tried to kill me," Heero explained. Relena snapped her head over at him.

 "What?" she asked, her eyes filled with shock. Heero got a cynical smile and said, "We were having one of our worst fights yet…,"

:Flashback:

 "Rebecca, I'm not putting him up for adoption. He's our son," Heero said vehemently. He and a beautiful woman were in the kitchen of a small apartment. Rebecca had long blond hair that looked white and sapphire blue eyes that were darker than Heero's.

 "But you never have anytime for me. You're always worrying about him," Rebecca said just as vehemently.

 "Well if you would help take care of him every now and then, we wouldn't have this problem. Now would we?" Heero asked.

 "Well, what am I supposes to do? I've got two jobs," Rebecca said.

 "And I have three," Heero said.

 "I don't want him anymore," Rebecca said.

 "When did you ever want him? You're never around," Heero said.

 "I WANTED HIM WHEN I WAS PREGNANT!" Rebecca yelled.

 "What happen then?" Heero asked.

 "I never see you anymore, that what happened," Rebecca said.

 "Right. We're keeping him and that's final," Heero said and turned around and started out the room.  Rebecca turn her head and saw a knife on the counter and picked it up. 'We'll see about that.' She thought as she raised the knife and threw it at Heero. Instead of landing in Heero's head, it barely missed his ear and landed in the wall. Heero spun around and glared at Rebecca.

 "Come here, Rebecca," Heero said in his coldest voice. Rebecca shook her head and started walking backwards. Heero began advancing towards. Rebecca backed up into one of the counters. Heero grabbed her arm and said, "You're coming with me."
 He began dragging her down the end of the hall till the reached a door. Heero opened it. It lead to a bedroom. Heero pushed Rebecca on the bed and said, "If you move, I'll break your neck."

 He got up and started packing.

 "What are you doing?" Rebecca chanced.

 "Reuben and I are leavening," he said. He got up and left the room. He came back with Reuben in his arm. He pick up a key off the dresser.

 "You're going to lock me in?" Rebecca asked.

 "Yeah," Heero said and shut the door.

:End of Flashback.:

 "That was the last time I saw her," Heero said. Relena remain silent. They kept walking.

 "Let's go in," Heero suggested after a while. Relena nodded.

 "Boss, why do I have to talk to the crazy man again?" Sean whined as he and Jake walk down the hall.

 "Because I said so," Jake said.

 "Well what are we going to talk about?" Sean asked.

 "His plans for the brats. I'm going to tell Hannah  to get them some food," Jake said. He turned and left. 'I hate talkin' to that man.' Sean thought as he walked to the command room. He called Radcliff. Radcliff face came the screen.

 "Aw. Sean, how are you today?" Radcliff asked.

 "I'm fine. You?" Sean asked nervously.

 "I'm perfect. To what do I own the pleasure of this call?" Radcliff asked.

 "My boss, Jake Cottingham, wants to know what plans you have for the Yuy kids," Sean said.

 "My sweet Rebecca and I are going to come and visit them. Now I must go. Sweet dreams," Radcliff said as he signed off. 'I hate working for him.' Sean thought as he left the room.

"What are you humming, Reuben?" Sammy asked.

 "Angels watchin' over me," Reuben said.

 "Oh," Sammy said. The door opened and a young woman stepped in, a tray of food in both hands. The woman was pale and had long black hair. Her chocolate brown  eyes were cold and distance. She looked to be Japanese.

 "I will be the one who will bring your food and that is all you need to know," she said. She put the tray on the ground.

 "Um, miss, would it be alright if I asked why we were kidnapped?" Sophie asked.

 "I do not know," she said and left. They begin to eat.
