*~*~Chapter 4~*~*



....a year later....

She snuck down the hall with something in had. She walked to the mobile suit room and opened what was in her hand. Out came a Gundam Suit. It was Deathscythe Hell Custom. She had to finish the system configuration and then it would be done. She climbed in and quickly put some disks in.

'It will work like the other Mobile Suit that he had.' she thought. She finished it and then jumped out with a tired look on her face. She saw black boots and followed them up the black pants, the shirt, and then to his face.

"So, this is what you've been up to." he smiled.

"What are you doing up?" she asked looking at him with a tired look.

"Nothing better to do." he said.

"Well, this is Deathscythe Hell Custom. You'll have more speed, more powers, and you can handle it like the other one..." she was going to continue talking but, her hand came up to her for head. She closed her eyes for a moment and then opened them.

"Hey, are you going to be okay Babe?" asked Duo looking at her seriously.

"Yeah. I'm fine. Take him for a test drive." said Makoto looking up at him.

"I am the God Of Death once again." he said and then entered the mobile suit. She made it over to a chair and sat down. She closed her eyes to the darkness that awaited her...

"Mako-chan! What are you doing in here? You're suppose to be in bed." said Minako looking at her.

"I had to finish what I started." said Makoto looking up at her.

"You're sick Mako-chan. I told you stay in bed and you never listen to Minako do you?" asked Minako.

"No." said Makoto. Duo landed his new 'baby' to the ground and jumped to the ground.

"Wow. Good as new Babe. Thanks." said Duo with a smile.

"Duo, you guys can't keep us here forever. She's sick and the best doctors that we have are at home. We need to go back to the coloney." said Minako.

"Minako, I'll be fine. Don't worry about me." said Makoto slowly getting up. She then walked out of the room.

"What do you think it is?" asked Duo looking at Minako.

"Quatre said that it could be anything. Emotions, tiredness, or she just wants to go home." said Minako.

"You've been talking to Quatre lately?" asked Duo raising an eye brow.

"We've been talking a lot lately." said Minako blushing.

"You like him huh?" asked Duo.

"Now don't you start getting nosey." said Minako.

"Well, I happen to know that he likes you." said Duo.

"Really?" asked Minako.

"I run, I hide, but I never tell a lie." said Duo with a smile.

"Wow! I never thought that he had feelings for me since I had some for him." she said.

"Well, we'll all have to talk about you guys going back to the colonies." said Duo.

"It's for the best." said Minako with a smile.

"Yeah, yeah." said Duo with a hand on his head.

"I better go see if she's in her room. She better not be in that pool or else." said Minako and then left... She searched the apartment t find nothing. She rolled her eyes and went down to the pool...

"Hey Babe." said Duo sitting down on a chair.

"Hi." she said tiredly. Her hair was wet and down. She rested her head on her arms on the side and looked up at him and smiled gently.

"Come here Babe." said Duo holding her towel.

"I don't want to go in yet. It's too hot." said Makoto.

"Just come here." said Duo. She slowly came and walked over to him. He handed her her towel and then she sat down next to him.

"What did you want?" asked Makoto looking at him. She used her towel to make her hair damp and then wraped it around her. She started to feel cold.

"How would you like to go back home to the coloney?" asked Duo.

"I never thought of it." said Makoto leaning against him.

"What is it?" asked Duo blushing a bit.

"It's too cold out here." said Makoto.

"We're going in." said Duo picking her up.

"What happened?" Asked Minako.

"She was in the pool saying she was hot and then all of a sudden, she's cold." said Duo carrying her up to the apartment with Minako. They came to it.

"Put her in her bed and cover her with some blankets." said Minako racing and getting the phone. He pulled back the covers and put her in. Quickly, he got blankets out of her closet and placed them on her.

"Don't leave me alone." said Makoto softly.

"I won't." said Duo handing her small hand in his large one. Minako quickly came in and took her temperature.

"She's freezing! Quatre's on his way. He knows what to do." said Minako. She walked out and paced across the floor. When a knock came from the door, she raced over and opened it. There he stood. She opened the door wide and had him come in. She quickly lead him to Makoto's room...

"Is she going to be alright?" asked Minako as soon as he came out and closed the door.

"She's gotten worst. The only thing that I can say is, we need to take her to a doctor that knows what to do other than the basics." said Quatre. Duo walked out and closed the door gently.

"She's asleep." he said.

"I don't care what everyone else says. We're going back to the coloney and we're going now. You can't say anything that will change my mind." said Minako getting up.

"I'll carry her to the ship." said Duo with a disappointed look. He turned and left to her room. He came out with her asleep in his arms. Minako grabbed both of their purses and then they walked out the door.
