Relena's
P.O.V.
I was awakened to the sound of an overly annoying alarm clock but before I got the
chance to extinguish the flames of aggravation I heard them being pounded into
an oblivion by
none other than My brother.
"Good
Morning... Lena" He said a bit cheerfully. "Good Morning? After that
annoying awakening I don't think so.." I said yawning and wishing I could
just sink back into my comfortable bed and forget everything. "Hey come on,
I made breakfast." He smiled at me. " Oh no.." I said looking
terrified. " Hey!" He frowned. " Zechs no offence but you know
you can't cook." I said ending with a yawn.
" Relena
no offence but your breath *is* offending me." He said smiling again
and in reply I immediately hit him with a pillow and upon pulling it away
breathed in his face " haaaa" He dodged and back up in a corner
putting his fingers in a cross sign at me.
Rolling
my eyes I headed to the bathroom and started to brush my teeth. I Looked
in the mirror and burst with laughter at the sight I found. My hair was in disarray
and my lipstick on the side of my face.
And so
began my day...
Walking
in the kitchen I could already smell burnt toast and something else foreign. "Um
Zechs, Do you know what you're doing?" I asked fanning my nose from the
smell. " Well...um...yeah." 'Uh oh that means No' "So how
did yesterday go. How was that Heero-guy?" He looked over at me. "
He was *Une brise D'air frais*." I replied smiling. He frowned at me.
"Don't brag cause' you know French and I don't." And with that I
immediately started laughing. " It means a breath of fresh air
silly." " That bad eh..." He grimaced as he brought our
food to the table. " That is an understatement. He..." I trailed off
remembering I shouldn't tell him that. I looked down at my food trying to think
of what to say next.
"Ack Zechs what is this!" I picked up something
that looked like it might have been looking at me. "It's squid on a
stick!" He laughed out. At that very second my appetite went following that
lost hope out the window. I picked up my juice and took a sip getting up from
the table, gave him a kiss on the cheek
and headed for the door. "Au Revoir Mesimee." I teased and
started out the door. "Bye." He rolled his eyes.

(A.N.*sings* Hi
Ho Hi Ho It's off to work she goes *Audience clears throats* Eh heh oh yeah
.)
The drive
there was so long especially with all the traffic I ran into on the way. Seems
like at first I was going an inch an hour. *All so aggravating Why can't people
watch where their going? Then maybe there wouldn't be so many accidents* I hit my
head against the steering wheel wishing that I was already done with the long
drive ahead of me. " agh... This is going to be a looong day." I
sighed and hit my head on the steering wheel again in frustration.

Heero's
P.O.V. (A.N.- Finally)
I sat in a dark room with black walls and no windows not knowing whether it was
day or night. Not that it would matter anyway. I hadn't seen the slightest hint
of Daylight since the day I had seen her... I sat with my legs up on
the bed, knees up, with my arms carelessly draped around them as my mind slowly
drifted to the events of that day. When she came in she looked like
a curious child. I watched her walk to the table before I decided to let
her know that I was awake. When I opened my eyes, her eyes got wider but then
settled as she studied my face. She was clad in a white fitting formal jacket with a
badge that read 'Dr. Shultz'. I never saw anything lower than her jacket.
Not that I needed to, just from her eyes I could see that she was very
attractive. I continued staring at her drinking in her appearance. And as I
stared there I felt as though I was being showered by sunlight.
That day
I told her to leave, with little 'faith' that she would come back. But I
certainly wanted
her to...
Just then
My Thoughts were interrupted by a pounding on the door. "Yuy... You have a
visitor." I frowned thinking "Dang, It's probably that damned
Attorney.' I stepped off my bed and slipped my shoes on. Then went to the door
knocked 3 times then paused and knocked again. I had been around here for so
long I had codes throughout the whole building.
As I
walked down the long corridors I thought about 'her' again. It had surprised me
that day when 'she' had handed me that note. That meant that she had passed Duo
and Quatre's test and not many pass it. They themselves designed it to protect
people from me.
First Duo would analyze their
Personality by their look and by front appearance . Then Quatre sort of proofreads them, seeing
what their goal is in coming here. Which should be quite easy for him since he's
a Psychic
Most people don't make it here. They normally
get scared away by the two. If one is calm the other is wild. Normally Duo but on
the occasion Quatre has too. All while Trowa and Wufei pretend that their
not paying attention. Some weren't phased and had the nerve to came up here anyway and that
was their final test. And if they don't make it, well, you know they failed
the test. In which most did, most except her...
Relena's
P.O.V.
I waited
in the room we had met in, the first time, trying to think of something to say
or anything for that matter. My mind seemed devoid of thoughts (intelligent ones
anyway) but finally I decided I would just be myself whether he was dangerous or
not. Although I knew I should still chose My words carefully. I sat down
thinking ' Alright Relena this is it... It's either stay calm or run and I don't
think I want to run so I'll try and stay calm.'
Just then
the door swung open and he walked in looking aggravated but when he saw me his
face went from confusion to that impassive mask, I saw the last time, in all of
about four seconds. I stood up and tried to greet him with a smile and said an
almost inaudible "Hi." He only nodded and sat down as I did so myself.
"What did you come back for..." He started suddenly. "Didn't you
here me the first time!" I looked him calmly and replied with "Yes I..
did hear you but" I paused to make sure I had his attention. " I Didn't,
Don't and Won't believe you." I finished smiling but he
didn't seemed phased .
"Now
that we've got that out of the way let's get down to business." I said
putting on my formal voice making one of his eyebrows raise.
Heero's
P.O.V.
I looked
at her with curiosity. She was a lot stronger than I thought. 'One point for you
Ms. Shultz' She was different from the others.
"Please
state your first and last name." She looked up at me in expectation. "
Heero Yuy." She took a few seconds to write it down. Then looked up again
" I'm pretty sure you're a male but you might wanna clear that one up for me
just in case..." I glared at her 'What was that supposed to mean'
"Well
not to be rude you probably haven't seen a mirror lately but your long hair
(A.N. Yes folks I said long) is really messy..." She stopped to pull
something out of her purse. When she brought it up for me to see it was a
compact with a small mirror. I looked in the mirror only to see that her words
were put easy compared to the mess I saw up there but still I glared at her
again. But rather than retreat as I expected She smiled and put the compact
away. She didn't seem to be showing any visible signs that she feared me anymore
and that confused me deeply. Most people (specially female) would feel belittled
under that gaze but she just continued to smile on as though I was smiling back
with the same goofy grin.
She did
have a pretty smile but I couldn't let that distract me from getting her outta
here. "Leave Now." I said firmly. She leaned forward with look of
apparent disappointment that made me smirk. She opened her mouth and said
"But I'm not done playing yet." My eyes widened and I stood up banging
on the table. Enraged I yelled "Get out Kisama!"
She leaned
back in her chair and mirrored the smirk that had once adorned my face making me
frown even deeper. Then she put her elbows on the table to rest her chin on them
and simply said "No..." She frowned surprising me a bit. "I'm not
leaving until I find out what I can do to help you. There for your use of
aggressive behavior is Uncalled for, Unnecessary, and further more ineffective.
Now will you please have a seat Mr. Yuy." She pointed her hand towards my
chair.
'How dare
she think that she can just come in here Uninvited and just try to take over...'
Relena's P.O.V.
' Oops I think I'm making
him mad, better say something to calm him down before he tries to strangle me again.'
I smiled at him and said. " I'm sorry Mr. Yuy, sometimes I get
overexcited..." I paused to see if he was calming down. He wasn't. My voice
got softer this time. " Look I'm just trying to help you and I don't think
a little cooperation is much to ask for. I'm willing to do...almost...anything
to get you cured, cause I for one don't want to see a human beings life go down the
toilet." I stopped when he made eye
contact. 'that seemed to have calmed him down a bit.'
"As a matter of
fact I'll make you a deal." I stopped to see his reaction. His only
response was the raise of his left eyebrow. "I'll do anything 'legal' for
you and you have to give me full cooperation." I finished with a bright
'real' smile. And then to my surprise he smiled back but it wasn't a smile like
mine it was dark and evil.
"Hmm...sounds
interesting, But you can't possibly get me what I want." I furrowed my
eyebrows 'what's he talkin' about can't I even be nice to you' The smile on his
face faded into an emotionless look that made me want to shiver. "Well at least
let me try Mr. Yuy" I hissed at him. "Miss Shultz...
I assure you that you couldn't possibly!" He hissed back at me and mocked
me all in one sentence. I frowned "Unless what" I pushed him
further. He put his balled up hand under his chin and said.
"Well....naw" by now I was pretty steamed. " Mattaku! You baka
just tell me what it is!!" I yelled surprising myself. I was letting him
get under my skin 'Calm down Relena you're supposed to have lots of patients'
"Well if you must know
I want...." he stopped and I leaned closer saying "Come on you
can do it." He frowned, leaned closer so we were about an inch away and
said in a low voice "My Freedom..." he looked at me closely to see my
reaction which was pure shock.
"Anou?... but where do
you get the nerve to ask for something like that?!" I was practically
yelling which caused his frown to deepen. " You can't do it?" It was more of
a statement than a question. I looked at him as if he were nuts (even though it
was an understatement)" Iie mattuku do you know how many people would love
for you to croak this very second? The only wet eye in this universe would be
that blonde boy downstairs!" I shouted
' How dare he ask for
something so....so.. outrageous.' He sat back and of all annoying things smiled
at me. A large grin that held mischief and evil. I frowned and it only widened I
felt like slapping the grinning idiot.
'There was No frickin' way
anyone would want him out....Wait...hmm... I know......' " On second
thought Mr. Yuy I think I can help you." His grin faded and he cocked an
eyebrow up looking at me suspiciously. " Since this prison is so desperate
to get rid of you anyway I don't think they'll mind if I put you in the
house arrest program for psychotics." he frowned and opened his mouth to
say some thing but I didn't let him start. "The program involves an island
with a maximum security house you'll stay in with your Psychiatrist which may or
may not be me. There is no way off and no telephones so you'll be isolated from
the rest of the world. but you'll be able to walk around outside as much as you
like. The main problem is finding a psychiatrist that will want to do this..." I
stopped, pretending to be deep in thought. (A.N. ok I don't know if this program
exist I just made it up for the sake of the plot.)
" Why don't you."
was his simple statement. "Me?" I faked surprise putting my hand on my
chest. " I'm not
you're personal doctor, Yuy, I work for the prison you would have to request that
from your attorney." I hinted. " besides my brother would never let me
stay on an island with any man specially not you with your infamous 'rep'."
he looked confused for a flat second. " You have a brother?"
"I...yes" I was surprised he cared. "What's his name?"
"Why so you can put him on your hit list." There was a deafening
silence "So anyway" I said trying to break up the tension between us.
" You give me a call at this number..." I fumbled around in my briefcase
for a card and after a few seconds handed it to him. " and tell me your
decision and I'll get back to you A.S.A.P. Until then I have another appointment
so I must be going." I tried to play it cool but it sure was hard with your
heart beating so fast and so loudly. I was almost sure he could hear it. He looked at
the card and looked at me but said nothing. " Well it's been fun but I
gotta go so goodbye." I started almost loud but finished softly. I picked
up my stuff and walked out that door feeling light as air.
I had a feeling I had found
that lost hope. But till I could confirm that feeling I was gonna stay by the
phone like a teenage teenybopper waiting for his call. ' So this is how it
starts....." I thought letting the wind outside the jail blow my hair back
wildly. And with that thought I walked to my car with a smile on my face...
Well did ya like? did ya
hate? got suggestions? got questions? let me know I'm on my deathbed till ya
do!
