"Come on, wake up," a gentle voice prodded inside Neko's unconscious brain.
Pain surged through her ribs as an anonymous object poke her. Not too long after, she felt something wet on her face. The veil of fog called unconsciousness was lifted and she was thrust into the waking world. The world of pain.
Someone helped her sit up. This jarred her shoulder, causing her to cry out.
"I'm sorry. Are you all right?" It was the same calming voice from before.
Neko nodded, pushing back tears. She was aided in standing and found herself face to face with her savior.
It was a young boy. He was possibly her age. Bright turquoise blue eyes stared into her pools of gray from beneath unruly blonde bangs. Thin eyebrows and thick blonde eyelashes brought out his wide, almost innocent gaze. A cute, small nose graced his face. His cheeks were borderline plump. Not too much taller than Neko herself, his bone structure was very light and he was quite thin. Being as blonde as he was, his milky white complexion would seem to make him look sallow, but didn't.
Neko thought this stranger was very handsome. She didn't really have much exposure to boys, but she knew a good-looking male when she saw one. Realizing she had just "checked-out" a boy as the girls she knew called it, she blushed bright red and looked away. The boy blushed as well.
"We don't have time for introductions right now, I apologize for that. We really need to get going or they'll find us."
With that, the boy grasped her hand and led her through the base. Neko couldn't seem to keep a single coherent thought in her head. Everything led back to his warm palm against hers. She couldn't even feel the pain from her shoulder and ribs.
The two ran as fast as they could. Sirens rang throughout the building. Luckily, they made it to one of the hangers without being spotted. The boy pulled Neko onto a shuttle.
He quickly gained control of the shuttle and took off. He was obviously experienced with it. They sat in a comfortable silence, each allowing the other to catch their breath. Neko held her shoulder with her hand, trying to ignore the pain.
For a reason unknown, the pair was not followed.
It was the boy who first broke the silence.
"My name is Quatre Raberba Winner, what's yours?"
Neko was shocked. "You're a Winner?"
Quatre felt a small blush stain his cheeks but nodded. "Yes, I am. And you are?" he repeated his earlier question.
Before she spoke Neko remembered to speak slowly and use an accent. She still didn't know this boy. She decided to use her Japanese name since he might question her accent. "My name is Neko Yuy," she spoke.
"Yuy?" Quatre asked.
Neko nodded. Don't talk too much was one of the rules.
"You wouldn't happen to be related to Heero Yuy, now would you?" questioned Quatre.
Neko nodded affirmative again. "He was my father."
A confused expression marred Quatre's face. "But I thought he was only fifteen-years-old. He can't be your father!"
"Nani? My father is dead!" Neko practically shouted in the boy's face.
"You mean your father was the actual Heero Yuy? Sorry about that. There's a boy on a mission just like mine whose code name is Heero Yuy. It was chosen because he's working for peace like your father did," Quatre informed.
"Is this boy a pacifist like my father was?" Neko asked, giving Quatre a long glance.
Quatre laughed. "Oh no! Heero pilots a Gundam. I do too."
Gasping, Neko covered her mouth with one hand. "You're a gundam pilot? But I thought your father was a pacifist? Why would he let you go and become a gundam pilot?"
Unwillingly, Quatre flinched. He was still mourning the loss of his father. "I sort of ran away. I just felt so helpless and useless so I decided to fight. A group of soldiers called the Maguanacs founds me and took me in. They gave me my mobile suit skills. If it weren't for them, I would still be a pampered, spoiled brat."
"So, you didn't like how your life was and decided to change it?" Neko wanted to be sure her facts were straight.
Quatre nodded. "Yeah. I guess. What about you though? Why were you at the OZ base?"
Neko sighed. "I caused trouble for the soldiers. They harass anything female. I was different than the others who didn't enjoy the attention. I fought them. I broke the arm of one soldier and I think they thought I went too far. They got my mother to bring me to the base for questioning. She was told that I started the fight. I attacked the soldier who was questioning me and I got away. Not too far though. She chased me and shot me. She left when told about the gundam attack I think. I fell unconscious and then you woke me."
Quatre was already standing, looking through the cupboards of the shuttle in the back. He seemed to know what he was looking for, but not quite.
"What are you doing?" Neko questioned, turning around to look at him.
"I forgot about your injuries. The bullet wound will have to wait until we get to the Sanc Kingdom, but we should get your ribs bandaged…" he drifted off as he continued on his search for bandages.
"Sanc Kingdom, you mean we're going to Earth?" Neko wasn't prepared for that. The last time she was on the planet was when her father died. Her mother had packed up everything the day they received the news. The next day, they were on a shuttle to the L1 colonies. Never had she planned on going back.
"Yes. Heero and I are helping to protect the kingdom and its princess. Going to your colony was just a side mission. I had to get some data from the OZ base." Quatre stood as he had found what he was looking for.
"Isn't the Sanc Kingdom a pacifist nation?" Neko gave the boy a quizzical look.
Quatre nodded. "Mm-huh. Although, the princess doesn't quite know that our gundams are there. Basically we're there because we're hiding from Oz, and protecting the country at the same time. Plus, I think Relena – the princess – has a thing for Heero." He motioned for Neko to come sit on the chair beside where he stood. Neko did so.
"It's sort of weird to hear you say 'Heero', especially since you're talking about someone who is not my father. What is this boy's real name?"
"I don't know. I'm not sure if he even knows it!" At this point, Quatre kneeled down and blushed. "You need to lift your shirt so I can bandage your ribs…"
Neko's face turned beet red. "Umm," she began, stuttering. " I t-think I can manage it myself. I fractured my ribs before and my mother taught me how to do it myself."
Quatre looked up into her eyes with concern written on his face. His cheeks were still a rosy hue. "Are you sure you won't need help?"
Neko nodded, unable to respond verbally. Their faces were inches apart, having moved closer unknowingly. Slowly and shyly, their lips came together in a tentative kiss.



Bet you didn't expect that! Someone wanted Heero to show up in the gundam and another wanted Neko to be with Heero. Don't worry, all will work out...If you have any suggestions for plot twists, e-mail me Sasami_13@hotmail.com I'm always happy to add in things that are realistic and would work in the already existant plot. Thanks! If you also have any requests for short stories, then send them to me too! If I get 5 reviews for this I'll try to have chapter 4 up by the end of the week...Please review! It only takes a second. I try to review every story I read.
