Party Time!
Chapter 4
Heero and Duo searched frantically through each room for Releena. They soon found themselves in a banquet room. Why is there a banquet room in an underground base? Heero thought. "Wow, this just gets weirder and weirder." Duo remarked. " Heero, look over there." Duo whispered while pointing to a minister and a young man about their age, with green eyes and blond hair. Even stranger he was wearing a tuxedo. "Interesting." Heero said. "My guess is there is going to be a wedding, but why in a base?" Duo asked mostly to himself.
Music then started playing. "Where are all the guests?" Duo asked. " It's probably a private ceremony." Heero deadpanned. The doors leading to the banquet room suddenly banged open. Two guards came in dragging a girl behind them. Heero and Duo looked at the girl. "Oh my god, its Releena!" Duo nearly yelled. Heero had noticed this already, but what caught most of his attention was her appearance. She was wearing exactly what she had on yesterday, except, parts of her clothes were torn, and Heero couldn't see one place she wasn't bleeding from. "What did they do to her!" Duo said with disgust and hate. All right now I'm definitely going to kill someone! Heero thought with venom.
Releena had immediately been taken to a large banquet room. While she was being dragged up the aisle she thought Gee, and your wedding day is supposed to be the happiest day of your life. She stood face to face with the man she was supposed to marry. He didn't shoot the colonies; maybe I can escape and blow this base to atoms, if I get the chance. She thought with a plan forming in her head. " Dearly Beloved…" The minister began. " Skip that." Apollos snapped. " Uh, yes sir." The minister stuttered. " Do you Apollos ________ take Releena Dorlin to be your lawful wedded wife?" "I do." He replied. " Do you Releena Dorlin take Apollos ________ to be you lawful wedded husband?" She noticed the guards were a few feet away. Here goes nothing! She thought.
Releena turned around as fast as she could and punched one of the guards, knocking him out, then she did a complete flip and kicked the other guard in the place she knew would hurt the most. The guard doubled over and Releena used this opportunity to grab his gun. She turned and aimed it at Apollos. Looks like those moves Milliardo taught me weren't for nothing after all. She thought with satisfaction. She couldn't help but smile at Apollos' expression. Looks like he underestimated me like everyone else. She then had a second thought. If I shoot him I might be able to save the colonies and earth, but it goes against everything I've worked to achieve in the name of peace. She reached a decision. Forgive me father. She pulled the trigger and Apollos fell to the ground. The minister ran away frightened out of his mind. Releena bent down and searched Apollos for anything that might give her an idea on how to destroy the base. So much for my job as Vice Foreign Minister. She thought. But strangely she didn't regret her decision. Finding blueprints of the base in his pocket, she stood up and was about to leave when something caught her eye.
Heero and Duo couldn't believe their eyes. Releena had not only knocked out two guards but she had killed someone as well. "So this is what you do in your spare time." Duo said with sarcasm while they approached her. Releena whirled around and pointed the gun at Duo before she realized who he was. " Oh, Duo, Heero." She said slowly as she threw the gun down. "What are you doing here?" She asked. "We came here to rescue you!" Duo said with amusement. "I have to go, now." She said and turned and walked away." Oh no you don't." Heero said finally, pulling her back to him in the process. " You aren't going anywhere in that condition." He said pointing to her still bleeding wounds, which the blood was still pouring on the floor. She looked at her wounds." I'm fine." She said with no emotion. "Whatever Releena." Duo said with impatience. " You can tell us everything when we get back home and get you cleaned up." Heero put one of her arms around his neck for support as they made they're way back to the gundams.
