Neochi stood in the darkened alley, her hands placed on her hips and her blue eyes flashing. Her hair was held back by a simple blue headband and it seemed pailer than usual, but since the artifical sun of colony L7-98443 had been turned off hours ago, there was no real way to tell. She wore her school uniform, cursing as the long skirt wrapped around her legs as she straightened the jacket of the blue and white uniform. She waited, knowing her contact was late.
Soon enough a van pulled up and out came to figures, one a strongly built man that seemed to be slumping slight and the second, another strongly built man that pushed the first one along. In the pail light shining from far away street lamps, Neo could see that the second man was dressed in a black outfit that covered everything but his eyes and seemed to be of a lighter cloth around his mouth and nose. The first man seemed to be tied up in an off white rope and he wore a blue Preventor's uniform.
The two approuched Neo and the second man threw the first onto the ground before Neo's feet. She stepped back for the quickest of seconds, her headband snapping off to reveal long blonde hair instead of Neo's brown, revealing Relena Peacecraft instead of Neochi Yuy and that's when all hell broke lose.
Gun shot echoed through the alleyway as Heero emptied his gun into the man in black, taking careful aim not to hit Relena or Zechs, the man laying at her feet. As soon as the gun shots ceased, Sally and Noin stepped out of the shadows with Neo behind them, Sally going to help Relena while Noin and Neo quickly untied Zechs. He didn't seem to happy, but that was only until Neo backed away and Noin crushed the platinum blonde in a hug.
The other pilots, aside from Heero who stood behind Relena and Sally, came from behind the van, searching for anymore people hidden there and finding none. Noin helped Zechs to his feet and Neo stood half way in the shadows, watching. Zechs turned his gaze to Neo, wondering who she was but he was not going to be the one to brake the silence. Instead, Relena did.
"Is the man dead?" She asked, tugging off the head band all the way. Neo was quite a master mind when it came to make up and with in seconds she had turned Relena into her twin, much to the outward fright of Noin and Sally, and to the inward surprise to the gundam pilots. Neo had some talents besides technology and lazing in front of the tv.
Wufei kneeled beside the dark figure of what had once been a person, counting the numerous bullets Heero had shot into him. His hand met the neck of the man and he nodded, answering Relena's question. Neo frowned and walked over to the van, asking Quatre if he had seen anything out of the usual. When he stated that he hadn't, Neo stepped inside, and with in a minute later came out with something the pilot's over looked. "Laptops are pretty easy ways to find who's behind things." She said simply before handing the laptop to Trowa.
Heero smirked, watching as Neo kneeled beside the body and removed the cloth from his face. His brown eyes, cold and lifeless, were open, and Neo places two finger tips to the body's eyelids, softly pulling them to cover his eyes. She then stood and turned to see what Trowa had found.
"Well there's no records here, just some old chat files with some person with the screenname Junebug." His eyes glanced up at Neo. "Anyone you know?" Neo slowly walked over to his side, standing on her toes to see, and shook her head. "No. I know someone using springbug, but not Junebug." Trowa frowned, not interested, and shut the laptop, handing it back to Neo.
The pilots turned to walk off, Sally and Relena fallowing close behind. Noin pushed Zechs to go foreward but he whispered something in her ear and watched her go off a head. He turned back to Neo, finding her eyes on the body again.
"Well I thought that the useless bloodshed would be over when the war ended, but it seems like I'm wrong." Zechs said as she walked to Neo's side, watching the new girl. Her eyes lit up briefly for a moment and then dimmed again, slowly becoming emotionless. "Useless blood shed isn't something we can run away from." She clung to the laptop, bring it close to her. "The battles maybe over but the war never ends..." With that Neo seemed to sink into the shadows, disappearing from sight as Zechs turned and hurried to catch up with the others.
Herbert Lowe watched as a large truck pulled up to the entrance of his hanger. He use the hanger to repair ship and to build them, sometimes helping out a stranded Preventor's carrier if need be. The truck was waved through and Herbert turned back to the figure which stood in the shadows of his office, the figures face hidden from view.
"So you're say you want me to build what's on these blue prints?"Herbert asked. "I mean come on, we barely have enough supplies to fix ships, let alone build something like this. Do you know how much it costs to buy even a small amount of gundamium alloy?" He patience was faulty but he didn't dare test the hidden figure in front of his. The sound of a large wad of bills echoed through the room as the figure threw money onto Herbert's desk.
"Just build what I need, alright? There will be plenty of funding for the project and after it's completed you may get a little more than we agreed on." The figure vanished into the shadows and the next second Herbert heard the door to his office open and close. He picked up the wad of bills, shuffling through them. "Well when she puts it that way..."
