Disclaimer: I am merely borrowing the personalities, names and surroundings of Gundam for this story and none of them are originally mine. (I wish!)
A/N: "Relena's Loyalty" (which I spelled wrong in the story) was to clear up the story. Some people are confused on how Seung fits into the story and some people are getting confused by somethings like, "Who's Seung?", "Why is Wufei so mad at Seung?", "Is Relena sick or something?" and more you might be thinking of. Now you know and now you get to see some action in the story. I hope you enjoy it. Also, please try to review so I know what you think. Oh, any anything you want me to clear up (if your really confused) e-mail me (iiishortystylz@aol.com) or write your question with your review. THANKS!

A Warning
By Hot Head
Heero gulped loudly. He didn't know what was going on or what to expect. Was this one of Seung's games? There was silence as he pressed the phone firmly on his ear.
"Relena?" Heero said softly.
"Heero!" Relena cried quietly.
"What? How? Why?"
"I'm sorry, Heero, I'm truly sorry."
"For what?"
But before she could answer, Heero heard Seung, in the back ground, commanding Relena to do something. He helplessly listened more intently.
"What happened?" he said.
"Heero..." he heard her whisper.
"Yes?"
"I have to tell you something."
"What is it then?"
"I--I."
"Well?"
"I'm in Seung's apartment! I can only see some sort of theatre outside, across the street! It says..it says..Shirmiller Cinema! She tied me up! Please come and get me!", she paused and Heero started hearing strange noises." No! Let go of me!the sound of a table being knocked down. HEERO HELP ME! a gun shot AHHH!!! NO LEAVE ME ALONE! something smashing to the ground. HEERO! I NEED-- Click."
Heero slowly hung up the phone. He looked at Duo then Trowa and then Wufei. His face was white with shock and his hands trembled. For the first time in his life he was afraid, cold stiff. He didn't know what to do or what to say to the rest of them but a few murmurs. Only if this battle could be fought with his gundam. He slowly and lazily walked a few steps until he dropped to his knees. His eyes began to water. Duo helped him to the couch where Heero began to babble and bite his thumb nail. He kept getting up but was brought back down by the three young pilots.
"What wrong, buddy?" Duo asked.
"Relena...Needs help..." Heero babbled.
"What? Is Relena in danger or something?"
"I got to go...Now... To the cinema..."
"You want to go to the movies?"
"No..No..Across the street... In her apartment...Tied up..."
"Wait,wait,wait. What's tied up?"
"Not what...who..."
"What is it then?"
"Relena..."
"What!?"
"In her apartment...the cinema....She's across the street..."
"What? She's in the cinema?"
"No."
"Across the street?"
Heero nodded.
"From the cinema?"
He nodded again, only he stopped shaking and gave Duo a firm stare.
"In Seung's apartment?" Duo said.
"Yes!" Heero said.
"Hold on. What's across the street?"
"The apartment. She said she is across the street in Seung's apartment."
"Across the street from what?"
Heero gave him a cold look and got up from his seat.
"So let me get this straight. Relena is tied up in Seung's apartment across the street from a cinema. What cinema?"
" Shirmiller."
"Hey, I know where that is. Umm, on 34th street downtown, just outside Chinatown--"
Before Duo could say anything more, Heero had already grabbed his jacket and left. He needed to save Relena, once again.

Seung managed to wrestled and toss Relena onto the firm, uncomfortable bed. Then she swung her in a chair and tied Relena's arms and legs to it. Relena began to squirm and scream when Seung placed the hankerchief back across her mouth. Suddenly, Seung slammed the door and threw the telephone, smashing the frail window. She was enraged and continued to throw things across the room.
The room was still dim. The small bulb that hung on a cord from the ceiling only little up the center of the room. Relena noticed shadows of photos and poster attached to the walls and many lamps spreading across the dim, dreary room. She stopped struggling to get free and hoped Heero would come, like always.
For the longest time, she hoped and prayed Heero would tell her how he felt but he always shut himself from the world. She tried so hard to change him but he wouldn't, he couldn't. Sometimes she felt he wasn't worth the effort but he was. Heero was the only one who brought her happiness and excitement. Nothing compared to the feeling she felt for him. She loved him and would do anything to be with him, just as Seung would...
Suddenly, she felt her stomach turn over and her head spin. Relena began to cry uncontrollably. What was happening to her? She managed to hugged her stomach and bow her head. Unfortunately, Seung noticed and stormed over to Relena's side. At first, she thought Relena was kinding around so she would turn her loose but when she lifted her head, she saw her damp, painful face. She loosen the rope around Relena and watched her slowly fall of the chair and curl up into a ball on the floor.
Relena held her stomach tightly as her chest felt as if they were about to burst. Her headache became even worst. Seung helped her up onto the bed and turned on three lamps around it. Carefully, Seung examined her and looked discouraged.
"Relena. If that's your name." Seung whispered to her.
"What the hell do you want?" Relena managed to whispered back.
"Have you been sick for a long time?"
She nodded and closed her eyes tightly from letting anymore tears escape.
"Your seriously sick..."
"Huh?"
"You have a serious illness. I'm sorry for bringing you here but it is the only way to get Heero back."
"Serious illness?"
"Yes."
"Why not let me go now so I can--"
"It's too late. Heero's on his way and I'm not letting you get in the way."
"I'm not in..." Relena gulped loudly." your way."
"Heero's coming here for you not me, right?"
Relena stared up at Seung and was speechless.
"I rather see you die than see you with Heero. I'm truly sorry, well I feel sorry for you."
"Why?"
"You're the one holding onto your life which could slip away in a matter of seconds."
"Please, let me go."
"Then where are you going to go? You'll die in the rain. It's better if Heero sees you die slowly."
"Is my condition that bad? My illness could kill me?"
"You're in very bad condition. If you had treated this yearly you wouldn't be like this."
"Is there any cure?"
"Yes. Two actually. One, you can be heavily medicated for months and on a respiratory and pace maker for most of your life and two, take a special drug the are testing for your illness. It will paralyze your legs for thirteen months but you'll feel better in no time, but where are you going to get it? The only place the give it out is a hospital on one of the space colonies. Oh gee, we're on Earth aren't we?"
"Oh god! You're crazy to keep me here!"
"Nonetheless, it's the only way to make Heero come."
"What is wrong with you?" Relena unexpectedly hissed.
"What?" Seung barked back.
"Are you mentally ill? Are you sick in your head?"
"Call me what you like. You're going to die one way or another and I will have him back.."
"You're crazy!"
"Hush! You're really asking for it. C'mon don't you atleast want to see my Heero?"
"He was never yours to begin with."
"And you think he was yours?"
Relena said nothing and the pain escalated slowly by the minute.
"I guess not. Stay here or I'll hunt you down and shoot you with his own gun."
Seung stormed out of the room and slammed the door behide her. Relena figured it was probably best to wait for Heero and closed her eyes.
