The Guardian of the Forest

Part 3



Quatre sighed as he stared out the window. He and the other gundam pilots where staying at on of the campers on the construction site. They only been here for a couple of days and they still have no idea what was causing the attacks. Quatre stared at the forest. Many of the villagers here are leaving saying they don't want to be here to feel Moro's wrath. Wufei say these people believe too much in their stories.

Quatre looked out at the forest. It was so beautiful. The mountainside was covered with dark green treetops. They where like Trowa's eyes. Pretty green eyes that he loved so much. Quatre blushed at that thought. He admitted it to himself. He had a crush on Trowa Barton but never told anyone. He was to scared. There still haven't been any sittings on Trowa yet. A couple hours ago they where talking to Sally and there where still no signs of Trowa. Quatre was really starting to get worried. Trowa, wherever you are. Please be all right. Quatre silently begged.

"Hey Quatre!" Duo shouted as he jumped on Quatre's bed. Quatre smiled at the braided pilot.

"Hi Duo. What's up?" Quatre asked being polite. Duo bounced on his bed a bit before answering.

"Nothing. Hey do you want to do something? I'm bored. Heero is still on the damn' laptop of his." Duo pouted. He looked at Quatre to find him staring out the window with a dreamy look and a slight blush. Duo smiled.

"You thinking about Trowa again aren't you!" Duo said very child like pointing his finger at the blonde haired pilot with a great big smile on his face. This snapped Quatre out of his thoughts (mostly day dreams about Trowa) and turned a very bright red stuttering. Duo laughed his head off.

"I knew it!" Duo laughed. Quatre huffed and grabbed his pillow throwing it at the laughing boy who was now on the floor. Soon Duo finally calmed down. He got up rubbing the tears from his eyes from laughing so hard.

"So Quatre, when are you going to tell him?" Duo asked. Quatre blushed again.

"I don't know." Quatre said quietly staring out towards the forest. Duo looked to where Quatre was looking. Then they heard a mournful sound of a wolf call. Then another came. It turned into a duet between the two voices.

"It's so pretty." Quatre murmured.

"What is? The forest?" Duo asked with a confused look scratching his head. Quatre laughed.

"No. The song between the two wolves." Quatre said with a smile. Duo looked out once again and listened to the two sounds echoing through the night.

"Hey! That's cool!" Duo exclaimed. Then the song stopped leaving a deafening silence in the night.

"Aww…they stopped. I was starting to like it." Duo pouted.

"Attack! Where under attack again!" someone shouted. Then there was an explosion. Quatre and Duo looked out and saw a fire going on not far from them. Then they saw something ran by. It was too fast to see. The two quickly ran out to stop the fight. When they got out Quatre saw Heero running out of Duo's and Heero's trailer with a gun. He looked around and saw the attacks running past them. Quatre looked hard and gasped at what he saw.

It was two wolves. Very big wolves. Twice the size of normal ones and where a silver white color. On one of them rode a boy. He looked about there age but it was too hard to see. He was wearing a mask covering his face that resembled a wolf. It also had fur on it that covered part of his back making him look like he had the appearance of a wolf. He wore a loose tattered white shirt and leather shorts all tattered and he carried a long spear.

The boy held out his spear towards the gundam pilots. The wolves turned around not even slacking their speed a bit as they made a sharp turn. Heero started firing at them but the wolves quickly dodged every bullet. The boy slowly started to stand up still crouched low to the wolf he was riding. Then he jumped off doing a 360-degree spin that Quatre thought only Trowa could do. He landed in front of Heero pulling out a small dagger trying to hit Heero. He dodged. The boy had very fast reaction. He stopped every blow Heero was giving him.

He reminds me of Trowa. Quatre thought as he watched Heero and the wolf boy battle. Then he heard another explosion. He looked and saw the other two wolves destroying what they can of the construction site.

"Heero!" Duo shouted. Quatre quickly snapped back at Heero and saw him on the ground, fallen. The wolf boy was about to put an end to the gundam pilot when Wufei quickly slammed his body against the boy. Quatre and Duo quickly ran to help Heero up. He looked tired.

"Heero are you all right?" Duo asked all worried. He looked at pale and clammy.

"Yeah. He's fast." Heero muttered as he tried to get up. His cheek was cut and bleeding. Quatre looked at Wufei and saw him battling the wolf boy but was loosing. The boy jumped up and kicked Wufei in the chest knocking him down on the ground. Then the boy quickly ran off. Quatre made sure that Heero was ok then ran off to help Wufei.

"Are you all right?" Quatre asked as he held out his hand helping the Chinese pilot up. Wufei nodded breathless. After Wufei was ok Quatre quickly went back to his trailer and grabbed his gun and ran out to find the wolf boy. He saw that the head base lights where on. It where they keep all the plans for the construction building. Quatre frowned and walked over to it quietly. He knew that John always locks the door before leaving for the night.

Quatre peeked through the door cracked. His eyes widen to what he saw. It was the wolf boy and he was typing on the laptop. What is he doing? He doesn't look like the type to know computers. He noticed that his mask was off but he couldn't see his face because his back was towards him. Quatre took a deep breath and quickly barged through the door holding out his gun.

"All right! Stop what your doing! I don't really want to shoot you." Quatre said trying to act like Heero. All though and emotionless. Not afraid to shoot. But inside Quatre didn't really want to shoot the boy. His space heart tingled when saw the boy. He didn't know why. The boy quickly turned around pulling out his dagger. Quatre's joy dropped. Now he knew why his space heart tingled when he saw the boy.

"Trowa?"
