Chapter 3- Suspicion
"Honorable representatives. I have called this meeting on behalf of Her Excellency Relena Peacecraft and Honorable Ambassador Quatre Raberba Winner. They have been missing for 5 days now and it is important that they are found quickly..." Milliardo Peacecraft had just begun an emergency meeting regarding their missing leaders. As he went on, delegates became restless and some of them were worried about the leaders as well.
"Advisor..." a voice came from nowhere.
Relena and Quatre appeared in the doorway to the Senate room and descended the stairs.
"Your Highness," Milliardo greeted.
"Quatre's back," Trowa said in disbelief. But there's something on his mind. What is it, Quatre?
"I am sorry to have you to worry about our disappearance. The fact was that we had some businesses back in the Colonies and we had to leave immediately without letting you know. Gomen nasai," explained Relena.
Most delegates were convinced with this, but the Gundam pilots were not. However, as the meeting for the issue that they had discussed 5 days before resumed, the Gundam pilots put the abnormality aside and focused on the issue at hand. As the meeting resumed, Heero, Trowa, and Duo all were concerned about Quatre, because he was beginning to promote war rather than peace. All of them thought that his sudden change of mind was odd.
Something is definitely wrong. This is not the Quatre I knew. Trowa doubted that if it really was Quatre.
After the meeting was adjourned, Trowa tried to find Quatre, but he was nowhere to be found. Duo, Heero, and Wufei were all trying to find him but they had no luck.
"What is going on here? Quatre's definitely not himself," said Trowa worriedly.
"Trowa, I don't think Quatre really has returned. So be careful around him," said Heero. In his mind, Heero was saying I would kill Quatre if I see him next time...
As they continued their search, they found Relena and Quatre along with Milliardo.
"Hey Quatre! Wait up," said Duo.
Quatre just kept going.
Milliardo turned around while Relena and Quatre kept going.
"Hey, Milliardo, I don't think that those two really are Relena and Quatre," said Duo.
"What do you mean?" asked Milliardo.
"I think they're fakes," said Wufei.
"Fakes? Well, that explains it all. I mean, Relena isn't like herself."
They saw that the two delegates were still going, so they caught up with them.
"What are we going to do?" whispered Milliardo.
"I'm going to kill them," said Heero.
"Nani! Are you nuts!? They might be our link to Relena and Quatre!" said Milliardo.
"I guess you're right. We'll leave them and surveillance their moves."
* * *
Hours later turn into days and the Gundam pilots saw that the two fakes of their friends would only communicate with their maker, but have no intentions of going back to the base whatsoever. Heero was getting restless and so was Milliardo. Thus, they decided to kill them.
In the morning before the last meeting, Heero, Duo, Trowa, Milliardo, and Wufei all went to the Senate Hall. Quatre and Relena were always there no matter what. The Gundam pilots all knew where the fakes were and headed straight for them.
"We will be cautious around the 'targets,' master," said "Relena" into the communication link.
Suddenly, the door was forced open and without any warnings, "Relena" and "Quatre" were killed. Milliardo hurried to the communication link and saw Duke Dermoil just before he cut off the link.
"I think I know who kidnapped Relena and Quatre," said Milliardo quietly.
* * *
A day later, another unannounced meeting was held. This time, Milliardo Peacecraft knew what was going on.
"Delegates, I have called you here because there is an important issue at hand. As you can see, Her Excellency and Mr. Winner are not here. This is because the ones that we saw two days before were clones and four of my colleagues and myself had killed them before any mischief would have befallen upon us. The cloning technology had been developing secretly under our noses by the Romafeller Foundation. Although the Foundation was destroyed, Duke Dermoil, leader of the Romafeller Foundation, had been alive all these years. He had kidnapped our two leaders!" said the advisor indignantly.
A commotion rose as he ended his sentence, but Duo, who hadn't been paying attention, was thinking about something else.
Man, I gotta go potty! I guess I'll just slip out of here and return after. Duo then slipped out of the room quietly with all this commotion around.
Meanwhile, with all the commotion, no one heard the hissing of sleeping gas coming into the Senate Room through the ventilation shafts. As the commotion continued, delegates began to lose consciousness, soon all of them were unconscious and so were the Gundam pilots. The masked men came in and took Heero, Trowa, Wufei, and Milliardo Peacecraft, to where Quatre and Relena were...
* * *
Flushing sound coming from the bathroom. Duo had finally relieved himself and was returning to the Senate room. Suddenly, he hid behind a corner and peeked to see Heero, Trowa, Wufei, and Milliardo being dragged away.
"What the heck?" said Duo. Without a second thought, Duo followed the men. He thought that they were here to take them to where Quatre and Relena were...
* * *
I have to get out of here. It is very important that I contact the others. Quatre and Relena were both back in their cell after the cloning process. Quatre knew where the cloning room was, for he pretended to be asleep when they were carrying him back to his cell. Suddenly, the door to their cell was opened. Quatre, who was getting stronger, decided to break out of here. However, he stopped in his tracks when he saw Trowa, Heero, Duo, and Wufei. His eyes grew wide.
After they were dropped to the floor, the door closed, Quatre hurried to Trowa's side, and having special abilities, determined that they were all unconscious.
"Trowa! Trowa! Wake up!" Quatre shook Trowa hard, but Trowa didn't reply.
Quatre then tried to wake up Heero, Wufei, and Milliardo, but got no reply as well. He was determined that they were all affected by sleeping gas.
Suddenly, the door opened again. This time, it was Duke Dermoil standing there.
Quatre had the sudden urge to hit the leader. He tried but took a blow before landing his feet on the duke. He hit the ground and was unconscious. Then two men took him away and the door slid shut...
