Loneliness for Christmas
Wu Fei's Part
By: Maria

Wu Fei was leaning back in his chair at Perventers Headquaters, staring at the cieling. Him and Sally Po had just arrived from another small fire. And whenever he was left with nothing to do his mind wondered to the past, to the people and events of his past.

'Another Christmas is here, but we haven't gotten another Treize...how is it the other four live a normal life when they too shared the war with me? We were soldiers but they found a meaning beyond the battlefield. Is that not possible for me? I've learned a great deal from those four, and I hope I've taught them something. They are the only ones with the capibility to understand me and my ordeals. Meiran how is it I miss them?' Wu Fei closed his eyes. 'Maybe it's not them but being a soldier with them...'

Sally Po walked into the room, holding a cup of coffee and looked at Wu Fei. 'He must be thinking about his friends.'

'I wonder why I remember Meiran so well, even now. Should I have forgotten her? I really didn't bother with her, that's how I am with Quatre, Heero Duo, and Trowa..or was with them. We were just forced together...' Wu Fei opened his eyes.'We share similar pain. I have to stop this and find them and start some sort kind of communication system with them!'

"Have you come to a decision Wu Fei?" she smiled

"Hmm...I don't know what you're talking about onna."

"Your friends of course."

"I don't have any friends. All I have is a role in the Preventers Organization, where I see justice being served."

"Oh Wu Fei. You can't deny what's in your heart. Preventers may have filled that emptiness you felt a year ago but I think it too has died out and what you really need and want is a more normal life and your friends." Sally Po watched his amazed expression.

Wu Fei was stunned that someone was able to read what he thought and hoped for. Wu Fei stared at her.

"Now that I've shown you that I know! I have something else to tell you Relena called to tell us about a Christmas reunion she has planned starting on the twenty third. We were invited and I need to know if you're planning on going. I have to call Relena and let her know if you are or aren't."

I'll call her and let her know of my plans of going."

"You mean you're not going to fight me off! You're going." Sally Po was amazed.

"*smirks* Seems I've amazed you onna! I shall not be a coward and run from them. Maybe friends are what I need in my life now..." Wu Fei looked up at the cieling.

"And you don't think I'm your friend?" Sally Po asked.

"Ha! An onna like you my friend!" Wu Fei looked at her angry face. "Yes, but more as a mentor or suprior. I give you more respect then a regular friend. Now please excuse me, Sally Po. I have a call to make."

Wu Fei walked to the door and then left. Sally Po sat therestaring at the door.

"I can't believe he said all that nice stuff to me! And he actually said my name. Boy the holidays do wonders to a person." she said.

Wu Fei walked into Lady Une's office and picked up the telephone. Lady Une had Relena's number on a phone directory on her desk. Wu Fei dialed up the number.

"Hello, Relena Dorlian, please." Wu Fei tapped his finger on the desk

"Hello. This is Relena. Who am I speaking with?"

"This is Wu Fei. I'm just calling to inform you that I plan on going to this reunion tomorrow." He said monotone.

"Wonderful! Ilook forward to seeing you there Wu Fei. I'll talk to you later then. Bye."

"Bye." He hung up and decided to go do his packing and check to see when Sally Po was planning on leaving.
