Author: Hey again, all! Scared? Don't worry...no one's gonna shoot you...maybe Trowa will because he's crazy! Ahaha! Now...here is the greuling part 3. It gets a bit alternate universe in here, so you really don't know what category this fic goes in. Ok. Here's the nitty-gritty: Trowa starts to kill more, unknown to the others because death has overcome him. Wufei has visions of a terrifying future, and the scientists are up to something a little strange to the sole responsibility of the pilots. Got that? Good.
Wufei sat cross-legged on the grass atop Quatre's estate's roof garden. He had been meditating, and lately he was having strange visions. They were very vague, but every time he meditated, and did more concentrating, they became more clearer, and vivid. But they were horrible, and sometimes Wufei couldn't stop them from coming, but now he was used to disconnecting from the visions. Then he could bring them up again, and something new in the vision would always come up. He knew something terrible would happen. Something strange was happening. People were going to die. And maybe one of their own. Wufei took a deep breath and closed his eyes. He concentrated hard on the new vision. An aura, shimmered in his mind, then went completely dark, like going through space, but the stars obsolete. A gray shadow appeared, and it had a beautiful aura, but then it turned black, and the shadow was combined with another, and it seemed to eat and destroy other shadows, but their auras were dim. It devoured the other auras, it's cries more horrible than the next. Then, Wufei saw himself, and the others. The dark shadow attacked. It passed through Quatre, and he fell back, screaming in pain. Then it passed through Duo, and Duo fell back, uttering nothing, his eyes blank, as he slowly fell back. Then Wufei looked at the shadow. Wufei knew he couldn't fight, because he was....afraid. Afraid of that dark shadow that had killed Duo and Quatre. The shadow flashed, and the darkness entered Wufei's eyes. Wufei cried out, the pain in his eyes burning. His vision was fading slowly. Trowa wasn't around. And Heero, where was Heero? Wufei turned and ran, tried to run away from that evil darkness, rubbing his eyes to try and block out that searing pain. He saw Heero in the distance, and Heero turned to Wufei. Wufei cried for help, but the shadow appeared behind Heero, and Heero was sucked into the darkness. There was nothing else that Wufei could do now. The shadow appeared again, and it stood inches away from Wufei. Wufei weakened, his knees buckled and he fell, his vision blurring...fading...fading...until he could see nothing more but darkness........
Wufei opened his eyes quickly, and he looked around and surveyed his surrounding. He breathed heavily and he got up slowly. He tried to calm down, his senses flaring, and he knew that something definitely would be wrong and that then he would have to find out what these visions were about. He looked out at the rest of the colony. He heard a soft noise behind him. Someone was sneaking up on him.
"Hey Wufei, wha--" Duo began, but was stopped short when Wufei turned around quickly and stopped a well-powered fist centimeters away from his nose. Duo breathed slowly, beads of sweat forming on his forehead as he cautiously looked at Wufei.
"I...I'm sorry Wufei, I didn't know you were...practicing your fighting moves?" Duo said shakily. Wufei let his arm fall to his side and backed up.
"I should apologize Duo, I thought someone was sneaking up on me." Wufei replied.
"Yeah well I was practicing my stealth skills," Duo answered jokingly. Wufei turned around, staring out. Duo looked at Wufei.
"Well I just came to ask you if you could help cheer up Trowa, cause he's really shaken up about something that happened," Duo said. Wufei turned back to Duo and nodded. Duo nodded also and turned around and Wufei followed. They entered back into the house and went down into the main living room. Wufei looked at Trowa and saw the pain and terror in his eyes. But there was something wrong. Wufei could tell there was something deathly different about the quiet boy. Wufei backed away slowly. Duo turned and looked at Wufei.
"What's wrong Wufei?" Duo asked.
"What happened to him?" Wufei replied.
"It's quite a story..." Duo said, as he explained to Wufei every detail that Trowa had done and said. Wufei glanced at Trowa then looked back at Duo.
"Duo I have to warn you, something is going to happen to us...all of us," Wufei said.
"What's going to happen?" Duo asked.
"Something terrible, I can't explain it, but I'm just warning you. Please tell the others," Wufe replied.
"Don't worry Wufei, what can happen? But just to get it off your back sure I'll watch out for anything and I'll tell the others." Duo answered.
"Thank you Duo, and if you don't mind, there are some things I have to do," Wufei said. As Wufei turned to leave, Heero came into the living room.
"What's up Heero?" Duo asked, walking up to Heero.
"We have a message from Doctor J," Heero answered, as he set up a video transmission. Doctor J's face appeared on the screen.
"I have a mission for you all," Doctor J said. Heero's eye twitched; he was always ready for a new mission, but so many tired him out and slowly ate at his soul.
"What is the mission," Heero asked Doctor J. Doctor J fixed his glasses with his mechanical hand and spoke.
"We were successful in our most recent experiment. We have regenerated your DNA samples from the very beginning of your training. Each and every one of you. Our purpose is for that in any circumstance that one of you pilots should meet your demise."
"Our demise? You mean there might be another war?" Quatre asked. "And you want us to stay alive but whatever it is you have created will replace us?"
"That's right," Doctor J answered. "Your mission is to take care of them. They have been created to look somewhat like you, but their apperaces are slightly altered. They are young now, but their aging process goes faster until they reach their adolescent age. They have already been trained the same way we trained you pilots, but we need you to take care of them so they can learn your special capabilities and assets, and learn your personality. Am I making myself clear?"
"Roger that." Heero answered. The others were shocked. Trowa looked up at Doctor J on the video transmission. [Have they gone mad? To send a young generation to war? I have doubt in their mind about their sanity. I worry about my own sanity also. The way I've been acting and feeling lately would make it dangerous to take care of a child. I have to do something.] Trowa thought to himself.
"They will arrive the next day. I hope they won't be too much trouble on your hands," Doctor J said and chuckled.
"Mission accepted," Heero answered, and ended the transmission.
"Ah you always say that Heero, c'mon that's getting old," Duo said.
"If you ask me I think those scientists are more trouble than those kids we have to take care of," Wufei said. Heero nodded slightly as Duo smirked at that remark.
"How could they do that? Hasn't it been enough? Hasn't the war ended yet? Those scientists are making impossible predictions," Quatre said. "They've created...children? That look like us? How can they think they are going to fight a war if we die?"
"I don't know but I ain't exactly good with kids," Duo replied. "Looks like this is going to be an experience I won't forget."
"Prepare yourself then," Heero answered.
"Well you ain't exactly a Mary Poppins yourself," Duo said. ((Mary Poppins? How'd I come up with that? Duo lives centuries from our time and I make him think of Mary Poppins? I need to get my brain checked...))
"Hn." Heero answered and went to his room. Quatre turned to Trowa.
"Trowa are you going to be able to handle this?"
"I can handle it," Trowa replied.
"All right then. If you can't then I"ll ask one of my sisters to take care of it." Quatre answered. Trowa nodded and got up and went to his room.
"Well Quatre it looks like we have to prepare for the worst," Duo said.
"I'm going to go...meditate...I need to figure out how I'm going to handle this," Wufei said as he left for the rooftop again.
Trowa went into his room and closed the door and leaned against it. Surveying the dark room, his mind went blank again. [Oh no...it's coming I feel it...] Trowa throught as he slid to the floor. Trowa crawled over to the dresser and pulled out a pocket knife from one of the drawers. Holding the pocket knife, his hands trembled and he got up quickly and rushed out to the window. He opened the balcony door and jumped off the edge. He flipped over and landed on the soft grass and ran towards the city again, not stopping. His heart beat fast, it pounded in his chest and he clutched the knife in his hand. He could not think, and all he saw was darkness and blood. Something controlled him, and there was only one thing to soothe him of his pain. To kill. He wouldn't be caught again, because his mind was left with a little bit of thinking to keep anyone from finding out anything. Quatre. Quatre was the only one who could keep him from getting into trouble. Duo would find out soon. Wufei has his visions. He had to stop them. Before they found out.
Do you feel my pain, my soul is left to waste. I have no hope now, death has become my partner, I am the murderer, he has become my superior.
Heero knocked on Trowa's door and waited for a reply to come in. There was no answer so he opened the door. The room was dark, but little moonlight shone in through the balcony door, as the curtains flapped from the incoming breeze. [Where did you go Trowa, what are you going to do...] Heero thought. He closed the door to Trowa's room and went back to his own. He would have gone and looked for him but he knew Trowa had the sense to do whatever he had to do. Yet in his condition, he might not. Heero sat on his bed and crossed his arms and closes his eyes. There was much to be done, and Heero had to think of what he should do about the situations at hand.
Wufei sat crosslegged on the grass on top of the roof, trying to meditate and bring up the vision again. But nothing came up, and as hard as he tried, there was an eerie darkness that blocked him. Someone was running. Running...from, or to something. That was all Wufei could make out. [Something will surely destroy us all...] Wufei thought.
Quatre and Duo were preparing for tomorrow, but they were only thinking of what was wrong with Trowa, and they suspected that also Heero and Wufei were acting strangely. [I wish I could figure out what was wrong then I could help Trowa,] Quatre thought. [Mary Poppins? Who's that? Why did I even think of that? Wufei sure was acting funny. And Heero's been staying in his room for hours on end. I don't know how he can stand it, but I wonder how he's going to take care of a kid. And Trowa...he's beginning to make me worry. He won't tell me anything. I have to keep an eye on him...all of them...I think Wufei is right. I have this feeling that something will destroy us...I am not...the god of death. He is no longer with me.] Duo thought to himself. He looked out the window and saw the lights of the city. [I am not...the god of death....]
Death has acquired a new foundation, he wishes for more souls...darkness is arising, the light is shun away...
Author: Uh, comments? Suspense filled? Want to know what happens now? Part 4? You actually want to read more? Well sorry but you'll just have to wait for part 4. This is going to take a while. Mary Poppins? I REALLY need a brain checkup. Oh yeah, part 4 is from Trowa's POV. Are you really that desperate? OK OK! I'm on it! I'm on it!
