Time Cannot Heal
disclaimer: I do not own anything that has to do with Gundam Wing. I simply own this story and plot. Don't sue!
Three years ago, something terrible happened. Heero was fighting rebel mobile suits from space and during battle, a hidden suit managed to hit Heero, badly. He remained in the hospital's ICU for months, trying to recover from mysterious damage to his brain. That hit had jarred something in his head, snapping him out from 'perfect soldier' mode, into 'psychotic soldier' mode. The last words he spoke to Relena rang in his head. He promised he'd come back to her, he told her that he would always be there with her. Setting those words as his goal, he got out of his coma and was slowly nursed back to health by Dr. J who had heard of his injury.
Re-training him, Dr. J decided to test out a new simulation program on Heero. Twice as strong as the Zero system, it enabled Heero to become better than the Perfect Soldier. But the only downfall was that the simulator had toyed with Heero's already mentally distraught brain, it made him worse. It produced images in his head. Futures with him and Relena, together forever. He swore to himself that she would only have him, and he would be the only one to have her.
Heero had become angrier, stronger, more determined than ever to get Relena back. After his training, he returned to Earth only to find that Relena had left in seach of him. So he went to the only possible place she would go to look for him-L1.
*************************************************************
Relena walked down the halls of the university she would soon be spending 4 years at. It was by far the largest and most prestigious university on all of L1. She moved to L1 two years ago in search for Heero. He had disappeared after the Eve Wars and left no contact for her.
*Flashback to AC 198*
"Relena, I have to leave. This is the last mission I go on before I return to you. I'll always be with you. Remember what I have told you, I'll always come back to you, I promise," and with that, he left her.
*End flashback*
Relena missed him so much. She wondered what became of Heero. She knew he survived the mission, but nobody knew where he was. Turning the corner, she landed smack into Duo.
"Ojousan?!? Hey, it's great to see you again!" exclaimed Duo as he hugged her. Smiling back at him, Relena smoothed out her skirt.
"It's great to see you too, Duo. What are you doing here?" she asked.
Duo smiled at her. Relena had become a fine young woman over the years. Snapping out of his momentary mental lapse, he answered her. "Well, I figured, I'm eighteen and I have nothing to do. So, might as well finish my education. That's why I came here. I start this fall's semester. How about you?" he asked, happily.
Relena looked at Duo for a moment. He had certainly grown taller in the three years she hadn't seen him. Looking up towards him, she noticed he still sported his trademark braid. "I'm here for the same reason. I just felt like checking out the campus today. Kind of like orienteering myself here. Is it just you that's going to be attending with me? Hey, before I forget, what courses have you chosen?" she asked, full of energy.
Duo looked at how excited she was and pulled her to a nearby bench. "Well, it's not just me. Quatre, Trowa, Wufei and Hilde have enrolled as well. About courses, hmm, let me think," he said as he stopped to tap his chin thoughtfully. "I got physics, english, psychology and chemistry. What about you?" Duo asked.
"Oh you do? That's excellent! I have psychology, biology, calculus and economics. Who's your psych professor?" Relena asked.
"Um, lemme check," he said as he pulled out his course schedule.
"It seems that I have Overstein. You?" he inquired.
Relena let out a small whoop of joy as she answered. "I have Overstein too! Oh this is going to be great! We're going to be in the same class and we can study together and-" she was cut off by a frisbee flying past her nose. Laughing, she clutched her sides as a fit of giggles tried to pass. Embarrassment struck her and she stopped, looking at Duo with pinkened cheeks.
"Sorry, got a little carried away. So, where do you live?" she asked, trying to cover her anxiety.
Duo gave her a grin. "I live about ten blocks from the campus. How about you?"
"Wow, this must be my day, because we're attending the same school, in the same psych class. I live 12 blocks away. Wow, isn't this strange?" Relena asked, astonished.
Duo grinned again. "Yeah, that's odd eh? Hey, wanna join me for a cup of coffee?" he asked as he pulled her off the bench.
"Sure," she answered as she took his hand.
Together, the two friends walked to the student union to catch up on what they missed in each other's lives. As they walked, they didn't seem to notice a cold set of blue eyes glare at them from under a shady tree.
:::Meanwhile:::
"Hn, you try and make one move on her you braided baka, and I swear you'll pay for it," Heero warned, as he vanished from the shadows.
AN: so... how did you like it? I expect about 4 or 5 chapters that'll follow this. Yeah, I know Heero's a little OOC, but aren't they all? Haha, it makes them seem more realistic sometimes. Anyways, please read and review. It would help me a lot to know how I progress with writing. Summer's here, and I might as well write instead of wasting my time rotting away, ne? Alright, I think I've taken up enough of your time. Read on and please, do review. Thanks so much!
