Part 3
The five-gundam pilots followed Shi. Soon they came to a stop and hid behind some boxes. They saw a man in his late 30 early 40's. They're where another group of guys around 20 or so. There where five of them. Nikko gave a low growl and stared at the five men. Shi squinted her eyes trying to get a closer look at them. Soon her eyes widen and gave a small gasp.
"It's him," she hissed.
"Who?" Duo asked.
"Those five guys. You want to stay away from them." Shi said. Heero opened his mouth to ask why but then he saw the older guy give some kind of disk to one of the guys from the group.
"Nikko! Get that disk!" Shi whispered hastily. Nikko nodded and quickly ran off towards there direction.
"You guys spilt up and run! Don't stop no matter what!" Shi said.
"What the fuck is that!" a voice shouted. They all looked and saw that Nikko jump up and grab the disk. He then made a quick turn. The leader of the man looked at the dog spirit.
"Nikko!" he shouted.
"That means Shi is here to!" shouted the other. The elder man looked back and forth clearly confused.
"What's going on?" he asked.
"Nothing. Your use if now fulfilled. Get rid of him," said the leader.
"Gladly." Said one of them. The leader started walking towards the direction Nikko went.
Nikko quickly ran to Shi. Shi hugged the dog and took the disk. She put it in her vest pocket. Then she looked at the gundam pilots with a serious look on her face.
"You guys have to run quickly. They are no match for you. Duo, you and Wufei go to the west side and well try and meet you there. Trowa, and you Quatre go to the east. Heero you're coming with me. Got it?" she asked. They all nodded and ran off.
"How do you know him?" Heero demanded. Shi was about to respond but
then all the boxes they where hiding behind exploded. Shi shrieked while
Heero covered his eyes. He looked up and saw it was the guy Nikko took
the disk from. His eyes widen slightly. He looked like Shi. He had black
hair and purple eyes. He wore a white t-shirt and blue jeans.
"I knew you'd be here. Wherever Nikko is Shi isn't to far behind."
He said. Heero frowned. How does he know about Nikko and Shi? He thought.
Nikko was giving a blood-curling growl while Shi held him by the ruff of
his neck.
"Tom," she hissed. Her voice was full of venom. Tom started to walk towards them.
"I wouldn't do that if I where you. One slip on the hand and I can let Nikko go." Shi threatened. Tom stopped and smirked.
"Now that's no way to treat your older brother my dear baby sister. Besides have you forgotten? You may have a dog spirit but I have much stronger powers then you. You know it very well." Tom gloated with glee.
Heero was taken by surprised. This Tom, guy was Shi's older brother and what did her mean by a stronger power?
Tom looked at Heero. He sneered.
"So how's this guy Shi? Your boyfriend." Tom laughed. Shi growled. Sparks of anger flew in her eyes.
"He's NOT my boyfriend. I'm really starting to get tired of this. Nikko get him!" Shi shouted. She then quickly turned around, grabbing Heero's hand and ran. Nikko jumped forward attacking the elder man.
Tom was taken by complete surprise. Soon he found himself on the ground tackled by Nikko. He held out his arm trying to hold off the wolf dog that was snarling and snapping at him. Then he held out his other hand, which started spark with a red electric light. It blasted into the dog's face. It yelped but it didn't affect him too much. Tom knew that. Nothing can kill a spirit dog. The only way to do so was to kill the owner. He quickly got up and ran after Shi and that guy she was with, while Nikko was a stunned.
Trowa and Quatre ran as fast as they could. Trowa took a quick glance back and saw Quatre close behind him. Then he saw someone else. He realized it was one of those five guys. When Trowa looked in front of him he stopped abruptly. He saw another person in front of him. Even in the dark he could see his features.
He had brown hair and brown eyes. He wore some kind of business suit. He smirked at him. Trowa could feel Quatre close to him.
"Trowa, where surrounded," he whispered. Trowa looked behind him as saw the other guy also smirking. He had dark green and garnet colored eyes.
"So, these are the famous gundam pilots I heard so much about." He sneered. Trowa frowned.
"I say lets get rid of them." the other guy sneered, smashing his fist into his other hand. The one with green hair frowned.
"Steven's you always say that." He snapped. Steven's smiled.
"Can't blame a guy can't you Jack?" Steven's said. Jack sighed.
"Whatever. Tom's order where to get rid of the witness's. So let's get going. Killing a couple of mortals is easier then a walk in the park." Jack commented as he cracks his knuckles getting ready to do something.
"My pleasure." Jack said as he held out his hand. Electricity snapped on his hands. It soon formed into a small ball with small lightning bolts zapping in it. Trowa and Quatre's eyes widen. Jack smirked and hurled the ball at Quatre.
Before the ball of lightning could hit Quatre a stream of water shot out of the ground deflecting the attack.
"What the hell is that?" Steven demanded. The funnel of water disappeared and there stood a girl in the middle. She had icy blue color hair that went down to her shoulders and matching icy blue eyes. She wore a light blue tank top and baggy blue jeans.
"Umi." Jack hissed. Umi glared at the two. She tucked part of her hair behind her left ear reviling a gold earring.
"I'm surprised you remembered my name." She commented.
"Screw this." Steven shouted and hurled a fireball out her. She held out her hands, water started to form. She gave a quick turn and threw the water at the ball of fire freezing it. It fell to the ground smashing into millions of tiny pieces.
"This is getting really tiring. Isn't it Mori?" Umi asked. Vines shot of the ground snapping wildly in the air. Then one large vine slowly shot out and there sat a girl. She had long emerald colored hair tied in a ponytail and matching emerald green eyes. She wore a black sleeveless turtleneck and a large green sweater that hung on her shoulders and baggy pants.
"Yes very. I saw let's get this over with. I really don't like wasting my time with idiots like them. Nor do my baby's." she commented as she petted one vine. A beautiful purple flower bloomed on it.
"How are these people?" Quatre asked in a whisper to Trowa. Trowa only shrugged his shoulders staring in aw at them.
Then all of a sudden the vines stared forming into one, except for the vine Mori was sitting on. It swung back and forth in front of the two men and then without warning slammed where the two men stood. They jumped out of the way but not without getting scratched and bruised.
"Well be back!" Jack hissed and then he and Steven jumped up and disappeared in the dark.
Wufei and Duo ran as fast as the could. They could here the footsteps behind them. They dare not stop running. Soon they stopped when they thought they where far away.
"Do..you..think…..the other are….all right?" Duo asked between gasp.
"I don't know." Wufei commented. He looked up where he heard the footsteps echoing through the night.
"Whoever is after us they sure aren't worried about losing us." Wufei said with a frown.
"That's because we know you can't get away." Duo and Wufei quickly turned
around saw a man with light brown and blue eyes.
"How are you!" Wufei demanded.
"They call me Credos." He said. He held out his hand and a water sprouted out of it. The two gundam pilots where taken by surprise when they saw this. They quickly turn and ran.
"You can't get away! Well find you easily!" Credos shouted as they ran down a dark alley way.
"Man oh man this is like some horror movie! First we run into bad guy number one. Next well run into a dead end!" Duo shouted as they ran.
"Maxwell, I don't have time for your useless talk right now!" Wufei shouted. Then they turn around in a corner and found themselves looking at a dead end.
"Next well hear footsteps!" Duo shrieked. Then right on que footsteps where heard walking towards them. They all saw a shadow walking around the corner.
"Then what?" Wufei asked. He couldn't believe that braided baka was being right.
"Umm…yeah. They guy will turn around the corner and we die." Duo said in a matter of a fact tone. Wufei glared at him shaking his head. Then he slapped Duo on the back of the head. They both looked up as they heard a chuckle. A person walked around the corner. It was a girl. She had blonde hair and blue eyes.
"You know, it's a shame to kill two totally cute guys." She said in
a sad tone.
"I see your falling over someone a bit to young for you again, Laura."
Credos said as he leaned against the wall arms crossed. Laura laughed.
"Can't blame a girl can't you Credos?" she laughed.
"Neither can we." Laura stopped laughing while the others looked up. They saw two figures standing on top of the roof.
"It's them." Credos sneered.
"Yeah it's good to see you to Credos baby," one of them said. They both jumped down and landed in front of Duo and Wufei.
The first one had silvery blonde hair that was in a layered cut and went down to her shoulders. She wore sunglasses hiding her eye color. She wore a red halter-top and black skirt that came down to her knee. She also ware a sleeveless black jacket that came down to her knees and black boots.
The second one was a red haired girl about chin length with long side bangs that curved around her face about an inch past her chin. She wore a tight, red; spaghetti strapped tank top with a golden dragon on it, and loose baggy pants that covered part of her shoes.
The silver haired girl looked at Laura. Duo could tell she was glaring at her, even with the sunglasses on.
"Well, it's nice to see you again Sakura." Laura said with a fake smile. Her eyes glared daggers at her. Sakura smiled.
"Hi Laura. Long time no see. It's a shame I don't feel the same either." Sakura said.
"Still haven't gotten over that accident I see." Credos said with a smirk.
"Keep on talking pretty boy." The red hair girl snapped. She cracked her knuckles challenging him to a fight.
"Now Megami, don't you know that fighting isn't the answer to everything." Credos said.
"Yes, very true. But in your case. It's another acceptation!" Megami snapped back. She quickly held out her hands. Fire shot out at him. Credos quickly jumped up and shot water at the stream of fire.
Wufei and Duo looked at each other and then at Megami. They knew that was one girl not to piss off. Meanwhile Sakura glared at Laura. Laura jumped up and a yellow energy ball formed in her hands. Sakura just stood there staring at here.
"Take this!" Laura shouted hurling the ball at her. Sakura jumped missing the blast. She levitated in the air, as did Laura.
"You missed!" Sakura shouted. She held out her hands a white light started to form into an energy ball. It hit Laura only in the arm. She screamed as she clutched her arm.
"You bitch!" She hissed through her teeth.
"Next time I wont have miss on purpose! Now get out of here before I really want to kill you." Sakura threatened. Laura glared at her then floated down to the ground.
"You'll pay!" she shouted. Sakura just looked down at her. Not after I get my revenge first after what you did to me. She thought.
Sakura floated down to where Duo and Wufei where. She looked and saw Megami kicking the crap out of Credos. She raised an eyebrow in amusement. Soon Credos backed off and ran off wherever Laura went. Megami walked over to them. She wiped off some blood off her cut lip.
"I see you had a wonderful enjoyment kicking the crap out of Credos." Sakura snickered. Megami just smiled.
"Well he hasn't seen me fully yet." Megami piped.
"Who are you?" Duo asked.
"Tell us now!" Wufei demanded. The two girls stared at them.
"Shi was right. Wufei does have an attitude problem." Megami said. Sakura giggled while Duo burst out laughing. Wufei just gave that rant of injustice, justice, weak women, and braided bakas (now we all know who he's talking about. ^_~).
Shi and Heero ran to a stop. Shi looked back to see if there was any signs of Nikko but none yet. She was starting to get a little bit worried.
"Who was that guy?" Heero asked again. Shi looked at him then turned her gave to the ground shuffling her feet into the dirt. She looked like some little girl that has down a mistake.
"He's my older brother. As you already know he's name is Tom. Just plain old Tom. He took care of me when my mother and father died. He then started to work for OZ. I tried to tell him to stop but he wouldn't lesson. He said OZ well help him support me. Even though they where only using him because of his powers. Then he finally left me just to be with OZ." Shi muttered.
"Touching story isn't it?" Shi and Heero looked up and saw Tom leaning against a building wall.
"You thought I abandoned you Little Death {1}? OZ gave me a mission to dangerous for you to come so I had to leave you there. When I came back you where gone. Thought you where dead. Then I realized you where the one they called the dark angel. Hard to believe that you where the one they feared. Just like Mr. Perfect-Soldier over there behind you. Come on Shi. Join me. We can be a family again?" Tom said flashing a smile while holding out his hand. Shi frowned. She can feel anger boiling inside of here.
"Like hell I'll join you! OZ is nothing but a big fat lie! What did you do to Nikko!" Shi shouted.
"Nikko is the least of your worries." Tom said as he walked towards them. Heero got his gun ready.
"You gun wouldn't affect him. It'll just make him laugh." Shi whispered. She stood in front of Heero glaring at her brother.
"Come on Shi. You don't have Nikko here to help you. So just let me kill the guy since he is a gundam pilot like those others you where hanging with. I'll spare you since you're my little sister." Tom said.
"Never." Shi said.
"Well then don't say I didn't warn you." Tom said. He held out his hand and a red energy ball started to form. He was about to fire it when he heard a growl. He turned around and saw Nikko running right at him. He jumped up and bit hard into his shoulder.
"Arrrgg!" Tom grabbed Nikko and flung him off towards Shi and Heero. Nikko landed gracefully on his feet.
"Come Nikko." Shi said. She held onto his fur and grabbed Heero's hand. Nikko jumped up and landed on the buildings roof. Tom looked up where Shi and Heero jumped up. He easily jumped up and faced them on the roof.
"What do we do now?" Heero asked.
"Umm…" Shi hesitated.
"You don't have a plan to get us out of here?" Heero shouted. Shi gave a goofy smile.
"Umm..I'm making this up as I go?" she asked. Heero fell down anime style. (AN: I think it's so funny we characters do that! ^-^;;) Where doomed.
Shi thought quickly. "Nikko transform!" she shouted. Nikko growled at Tom. He started to turn into a purple color. Then he turned into a purple light that jetted at Tom. He quickly zapped it but it came back, Nikko kept coming back. Soon the battle between the two was high above Shi and Heero's head. Red and purple light flashed and zipped back and forth.
Tom then gave a powerful blast that knocked Nikko out. The spirit dog gave a yelp and fell on the buildings roof.
"Nikko!" Shi shrieked. She started to run towards the wolf dog when she noticed Tom getting ready to attack again. She looked and saw he was about to go after Heero. Her eyes widen.
"Heero!" Heero looked at Shi. He found her looking at something to his left. He looked and saw Tom throwing a red energy ball at him. He froze eye's widening as he saw the upcoming object-heading straight for him.
Shi ran as fast as she could towards Heero. She quickly jumped wrapping her arms around him taking the full hit. She screamed in pain. Her arms tightened around Heero, afraid that he might get hurt. They fell on the very edge of the roof.
Heero looked at Shi. She still had a tight hold on him. Her eyes where clenched tight from pain. He felt something trickling on his arm. He looked and saw blood. Shi's blood. Heero quickly looked at her back and saw it had a deep gash on it, it looked pretty deep.
"Heero?" Heero quickly looked at Shi. He could see pain in her large purple eyes.
"Are you ok?" she asked. Heero nodded not knowing what to saw. Shi smiled. Doesn't she ever go a day without smiling? He thought.
"That's good." She said. She gave a tired look. Heero bit his lip. He didn't know what to do. He could feel Shi's hold starting to loosen. She was unconscious. Heero looked up as he heard some laughing. He frowned when he saw Tom.
"So Little Death does have a soft spot for you." He laughed.
"Don't you have any regrets for hitting your sister!" Heero shouted. Tom shook his head.
"She's not my family any more." He stated. Tom was about to charge up another attack but Nikko jumped up and sank his teeth into his arm and held on.
-Get Shi out of here. I'll hold him off as long as I can- Nikko said sending it through Heero's mind. Heero's eyes widen even more. The dog now talks! Before Heero could say anything else Nikko transformed into the purple light and aimed straight at Tom.
Heero gently picked up Shi, so he didn't hurt wounds anymore then they already are. He looked up and saw Nikko and Tom battling.
Tom growled as he blasted back Nikko. He stared down at Heero and Shi. He quickly charged up another energy ball and hurled it at Heero who was holding his sister. But as her through the ball Nikko slammed into him causing to miss his direction. The ball hit to far away but it made part of the roof collapse. The part where Heero was standing on.
Heero quickly ran as he saw the energy ball coming but it missed by a mile. He looked up thankful that Nikko made him miss but then he felt the ground under him trembling. He looked down and saw the ground crackling under his feet. Then it gave way.
"Nikko!" he shouted. He reached his hand up trying desperately to grab hold of something that was falling. Nikko quickly looked up and saw Heero falling holding his mistress. Nikko quickly raced to catch them but was hit by Tom's energy ball. He yelped but tried to keep going to catch to two.
Heero saw Nikko trying his hardest to get to them but was always stopped by Tom. When he thought there was no hope vines came over the side of the building heading towards them at a quick speed. They wrapped around him and Shi. Heero still holding the unconscious Shi looked up and saw four people standing on the edge. The vines then pulled them up. He saw four girls and Nikko who was badly bruised from the battle. Panting and walked over to them and started nuzzling Shi trying to wake her up.
Shi opened her eyes and looked tiredly at Nikko. She gave a weak smile and gently petted him. "Good boy." She murmured. Her back still hurt but was wasn't bleeding anymore. She then looked up at the four girls. She saw the other four-gundam pilots standing besides them. Heero was still holding her.
"Hey guys. Glad to see you again." She said and then she blacked out
again.
1. Shi means death. Little Death is a nickname Tom gave her cause of the meaning of her name. Since she is his baby sister. ^-^
