Tears: Final Chapter









Skye leaned in the doorway after the doctor left. Wufei was lying down staring at the ceiling and there was a bandage on his leg where the bullet had entered.
"So how do you feel?"
"Weak," He muttered. "I still can't believe she did that."
"The doctor said you could walk in a few days, but only if you rested."
"Doctors, what do they know?"
"More about medicine than you do." He glared at her. The phone rang and Skye went to answer it. She pushed the button to answer it and Sally's face popped up on the screen.
"Hi! Sorry I'm late, but I'll be there in a few days. Preventer work is tough!"
"I-uh…then …how??" Skye was very confused.
"What do you want?" Wufei asked, glaring at Sally.
"Wufei! Sit down!! You have a bullet in your shin!!"
"What? What happened? Who attacked?" Sally demanded.
"You did. Tried to get us join some secret organization."
"But I would never-…"
"Goodbye, Sally." Wufei turned off the phone.
"How…how is that possible?"
"Traitors…WHY TRAITORS?!" He turned and punched through the screen.
"Great, another injury! Honestly, can you go three minuets without punching something?!" Skye demanded, feeling a little frustrated.
"You worry too much, onna."
"No, I don't and the name's Skye!"
"I'll call you what I want!" Wufei yelled. Outside, on the other side of the door, the four other pilots were listening to this fight in progress. After a few minutes it stopped.
"Hmm, Maybe she left." Quatre suggested.
"Out the window?" Duo asked. "They could just not be speaking to one another…"
"She doesn't act like that after a fight." Trowa replied.
"Only one way to find out." Duo said, opening the door a crack. His eyes widened slightly and he silently closed the door.
"What?" The three other chorused. Duo muffled a laugh.
"It looks like Skye's enjoying her first kiss." He replied.
"What?" Asked Quatre and Heero.
"Not Wufei!" Quatre exclaimed. Duo nodded, grinning. Beeping came from Heero's laptop. He opened it up and sat down.
"We've got a mission."
"Oh, great…who's gonna tell them?" Duo asked motioning towards the door.
"Hmm," Quatre thought for a moment. "MISSION!!!!" He yelled at the top of his lungs. Skye burst out of the room, with Wufei right behind her.
"Where? What?" She demanded.
"Not you Sis." Trowa said. "You should stay here."
"Yeah," Wufei agreed. "And you don't have a mobile suit."
"Hmm. Okay." Skye replied reluctantly. The five pilots ran down the hall to the hanger. Skye sat down in a chair and stared at the ceiling. "How boring. I'm suppose to stay here in this mansion while they go have all the fun."
"Hey, Skye!"
"Hmm?" She looked to see who had spoken. Hilde was standing down the hall a-ways. "What?"
"Come on! Follow me!" Hilde called excitedly. Skye got up and ran down the hall after her. Hilde led her to Catherine's room. Skye entered and Catherine slammed the door behind her, locking it.
"Ok," Relena said. "Spill."
"Spill?" Skye asked, slightly confused.
"About you and a certain pilot." Catherine explained, Skye turned a bright crimson.
"You're blushing!" Hilde cried. The other girls laughed until tears were streaming down the sides of their faces.
"So?" Demanded Skye, turning away.
"W-we're just teasing," Relena said brushing away the tears. "Anyway, we're going to have a party."
"Why?"
"It's someone's birthday."
"Who's?"
"You mean you don't know?!" Catherine demanded.
"Know what?" Skye was getting more and more confused by the minute.
"It's that certain pilot's birthday tomorrow. He tried to hide it but we have our sources."
"I see." Skye said raising an eyebrow. "Is that all you got me in here for?"
"You need a *makeover*." Hilde said.
"No way!" She said backing up, trying to open the door. "Kuso! It needs a key!"
"That I have." Catherine said, holding it up. "Now, your only way out of this room is if you get a makeover."
"Ugh. Fine…" She reluctantly sat on the bed while they did her makeup. As soon as they finished it, they gave her the gown they picked out and she put it on. It was black, trimmed with a silver color. It was normal in the front, and cut slightly low and the back was covered with a black lace that had a beaded pattern of a butterfly on it. There was a single slit running up to the knee. They gave her black platform sandals with a separate pocket for the toe and a flower on it, black gloves that went just past her elbows, and a black choker with a silver heart hanging from it.
"What do you think?"
"Its formal? I'm dead! I've never *ever* been to a formal dinner in my life! But you guys, this outfit is beautiful!"
"Now, your hair." Relena put Skye's hair up in to a French twist and stuck a silver glass rose in it. "Come with me, I'll teach you the manners." Relena led her out the door, and Skye promptly tripped on her sandals. Hilde sighed and helped her up.
"One foot in front of another, slowly." Hilde said.
"Ok, I can do this!" Skye soon got the hang of her sandals, and after about an hour got the manners down. "Is the party tonight?" She asked, picking fuzz off her gloves.
"Yeah, we're gonna surprise them when they get home. You'll be the surprise." Hilde replied. The other three girls had dressed in their gowns. Hilde's was lavender trimmed with a dark purple. She had similar sandals and no gloves. Relena's was white and similar to her "Queen of the World" outfit, only no poofy skirt and no sash.
"Surprise?"
"Well, yeah," Catherine replied. Her skirt went to her knees and the dress was a light blue trimmed with black. She has high heels and a beaded black and blue choker. "I doubt that any of the boys have seen you like that."
"Oh, no! If they see me like this they wont let me ever fight!" She tried to run but Relena grabbed her arm.
"No, they wont. Trust me."
"Catherine, I've been meaning to ask you, When I first met you, you said Trowa was your brother. Why'd you say that?"
"Well, because I had stepbrothers and sisters. He just reminded me of one of them. Actually you do too."
"What's you last name again?"
"Bloom."
"Was your mother's name Janie?"
"Y-Yes," Catherine said a little puzzled. "Here's a picture of her." She handed Skye a locket, she opened it and gasped.
"That *is* my mom!" Skye exclaimed. "We're half sisters!"
"Oh my god!" Catherine exclaimed.
"Heeelloooo?" Duo called through the hallway.
"Oh, no! They're back! Quick in there!" Relena pushed her in a closet and shut the door.
"Great." Muttered Skye. "Catherine!" She slid her locket under the door and Catherine picked it up.
"Hey, why you guys so dressed up?" Quatre asked. Wufei tried to slip away, but Catherine dragged him forward.
"Happy Birthday!" She said.
"Guys, go get changed," Hilde said. "Stuff's in your rooms."
"Oh, yay." Heero grumbled walking off. The others followed and went into their rooms. After changing Hilde took them to the ballroom, which was decorated.
"Uh, where's sis?" Trowa asked looking around.
"Oh, I forgot to tell her it was time. Will you get her Wufei?" Relena asked innocently. "I think she's in the kitchen." He shrugged and walked away towards the kitchen.
"What have you got up your sleeve?" Heero demanded.
"Whatever do you mean?"
"Relena, your innocent act needs work. I can see right through it."
"Hmm, oh well. That's all we needed to do." Relena said, grinning. "Would you care to dance, Heero Yuy?" Before he could say anything, she dragged him out on to the dance floor. Meanwhile, Wufei had just arrived in the kitchen.
"Skye? Are you in here?"
"Wufei?" Her voice was muffled because of the door and she started pounding on it. "You have to sneak me out of this party!!"
"Why?"
"Why? Why?! Because they're insane!!"
"Who?"
"The girls! As soon as you guys got home, Relena shoved me in here. And I can't get out!"
"Seems she has this planned out." Muttered Wufei, opening the door. "Y-you're-…"
"Dressed up. Yes I know. Why are you here?"
"She sent me."
"Figures. They locked me in Catherine's room and forced me in to this."
"Um…you look nice…"
"Thanks," She said smiling. "Lets get this over with." But before they could leave, someone started knocking on the kitchen door. Skye walked over and opened the door. A young solider stood there, behind him there were 3 more.
"Is this the Winner residence?"
"Yes, can I help you?"
"OZ just burned the Night household."
"Oh, no…"
"Any survivors?" Wufei asked, walking over.
"Only one." A solider came forward, carrying a small girl of six. She was unconscious. "She has amnesia, and I thought you could take care of her."
"I will." Skye said, taking the small child in her arms. Her light brown hair fell over her pale face. She had some burns on her arms and legs, and was shivering. Her once pretty blue dress was torn and streaked with mud. Skye felt a tear run down her face as she remembered her own past. She sat down in a chair, with the child on her lap.
"I'll get Quatre," Wufei said, turning. He thanked the soldiers and shut the door. Then ran to the ballroom. He quietly tapped Quatre on the soldier and they slipped out, unnoticed. Outside, Wufei explained where and why he had to come with.
"There's something in the kitchen you have to see."
"What?"
"I can't explain here, just follow me." Wufei took him back to the kitchen and Quatre gasped.
"W-w-what??" Skye looked up at him, and smiled.
"The Night estate was burned, she's the only survivor. I'm going to look after her. She has amnesia."
"Do you know her or her family?" Wufei asked Quatre. He nodded.
"Yes, I kno-knew them. This is their youngest. Her name is Diana."
"She can't have the same name or they'll find her." Skye pointed out. "What should her first name be?"
"Denise?" Offered Quatre.
"Hmm, nah. How about Daine?" The other two nodded. Quatre went off to get Rashid [sp??] and Wufei sat down in a chair next to Skye. Daine opened her eyes and looked up at Skye.
"Momma?"
"Yes?"
"I had a bad dream! People were burning the house and-and…" She burst into tears.
"It was just a bad dream, honey. You were sleep walking so your sitter brought you here."
"R-really? Is that why my dress is torn?"
"You were playing dress-up and fell asleep. Remember?" Wufei said.
"Daddy? Daddy!" She hugged him. "Will you tell me a story?"
"Skye?" Quatre peeked in the room. "I got the towels."
"Hi!" Daine said. "Who are you?"
"This is Mr. Winner, honey. Remember? We work for him with some other people?" Skye said, winking at Quatre, He caught on quickly.
"Yes, and its bath time." Quatre said. "Then off to bed."
"We're going home already?"
"Uh, no…we stay here, remember? Because our house is too far away and Mr. Winner lets us use our guest rooms." Skye explained quickly.
"And we'll set up a cot for you in Mom's room. Okay?" Wufei added. Quatre nodded and called for Rashid. He came in and looked a little surprised to see Daine.
"She was sleep-walking," Quatre added quickly. "So they brought her here. You remember her parents." He said, gesturing to Skye and Wufei. "So she needs a bath and an extra bed in her mother's room. Please show her to the bathroom."
"Mommy, will you come with me?"
"Sorry, honey. We're in the middle of a important party."
"And I'll get you a dress to wear as soon as you're cleaned up." Quatre said smiling. "You may come down too."
"Yay! Come on, Rashid!" Daine grabbed his hand and led him out the door.
"Well," Skye said, rising from her chair. "We'd better tell the others before they flip."
"Yeah," Wufei replied. "Except Maxwell can't keep a secret."
"Not like there's much of a choice either way." Quatre added. "They'll be missing us if we don't go back." The three walked out the door and in to the ballroom, where the girls promptly dragged Skye off.
"Don't worry! I'll tell 'em! You go tell Trowa, Heero, and Duo." Skye called grinning, Wufei nodded and went to tell the other three pilots, while Quatre went and told the rest of the Maganacs.
"Spill." Hilde said. "What took you guys so long?"
"The Night estate was burned. There was only one survivor, a little girl with amnesia. I'm going to raise her, so I'm her mother. Which means my age is going up by ten, as is the rest of the pilots. You guys might want to do the same." They nodded and she proceeded to continue. "The funny thing is, when she saw Wufei, she thought and still thinks now, that he's her father."
"Aw, how cute!" Relena exclaimed. "What's her name?"
"Daine Brown." Skye replied. "I'm keeping my fake last name."
"Well, it appears I'm an Uncle." Trowa said, walking over. "So I suppose now I'm twenty-six?"
"Well, yeah. We have to increase our ages by ten years. Oh, She'll be coming down to the party soon."
"Presenting Miss Daine Brown!" Rashid called out, Daine walked down the stairs wearing a similar blue dress with black stockings and matching shoes. When she got down the steps, Daine ran over to Skye.
"Mommy! Look! Aren't I pretty?" She asked, turning. "And look, I did my own hair!" She pointed to the headband holding the hair out of her eyes.
"Wow, I'm so proud! These are my friends, Miss Hilde, and Miss Relena." Skye introduced them. "And this is your Aunt, Catherine."
"Hi, Aunt Catherine!"
"Nice to see you again, Daine."
"Oh, This is you Uncle, Trowa." She added.
"Hi!"
"Hello. How are you?"
"I'm good. Who are the rest of the people, Uncle Trowa?" Daine asked, tugging on his sleeve.
"This is Mr. Duo Maxwell, Mr. Heero Yuy, and you already know Mr. Quatre R. Winner."
"Hello Mr. Maxwell, Mr. Yuy. Nice to see you again Mr. Winner."
"You can call them by their first names, Daine. Like the grown-ups do." Wufei said.
"Okay, Daddy!" The party was a blast. Daine fell asleep in her cake and Wufei had to carry her upstairs since Skye was almost asleep by the end. They all went to their separate rooms, knowing each of them would have to help raise her and hide the secret of themselves from her. Unfortunately, Skye was given the mission of piloting herself three days later. Daine started kindergarten that same day though. They hid it from her for two years until one day it all came spilling out.


Well, that ends the Tears saga. I'm going to do another one that's a sequel to this. So R+R please! No one seems to be reviewing anymore. ;_;
