First Chapter
"I don't think we can trust her," said a voice that sounded so far away. "I mean, it's not every day when you find a girl who doesn't exist in the pond of a pacifist nation. And with all these rumors of a new rebel force. The Gundams have been rebuilt, but is that enough?"
"Wow," said a voice sarcastically. "I didn't no you could string together a whole sentence, Trowa!"
"I may be quiet, but I'm not stupid."
"Like you are," added another voice, one that reflected pride and strength.
'So many voices. Where are they coming from? Why can't I open my eyes? It's so white…'
Serena slowly opened her eyes, and they met a pair of cold black ones.
"Woman," he said. "I think she's awake."
"My name is Sally, WuFei, and why do you think that?" the girl asked. There were six people in the lab. A boy of seventeen stood in the shadows wearing a green tanktop and white jeans. Next to him stood a boy with a huge grin who was trying to get her attention by giving bunny ears to the infamous brown haired boy, only resulting in his arm being twisted behind his back. A kind looking blond boy and a tall boy with brown hair that cover one emerald green eye (unibang! ^_\\) stood beside the one who called herself Sally. The one closest to herself was a Chinese boy with black hair tied in a painful looking ponytail and deep black eyes. He wore a uniform just like the one Sally wore. What did they say his name was…WuFei. She peered into the eyes with curiosity and silently asked. Who are you? Do I know you? Then a thought crossed her mind…the scouts. She kicked out her leg and the Chinese boy fell to the ground.
"What the-" he yelled. "What's wrong with you woman?!"
"My name is not woman!" she yelled, her voice sounding so strong. Who is she? WuFei thought. Do I know her? "My name is---"
She giggled. "I forget…" Who are the scouts? What are scouts? Why do I want to find them? "I do have a name though, and it's not woman…or at least I hope it's not…"
WuFei stifled a smile. Men don't smile at stupid things like forgetful women. Especially ones who could be spies.
"I know," she said with a smile…a name popping up to her out of the blue. "You can call me…" her eyes went really big and she smiled. "BUNNY!"
"What a weak name," WuFei Snorted.
"You don't like it…" she said, her blue eyes filled with tears.
"It's not that, Bunny," said the blond, handing WuFei a tissue. "He's just---"
"sexist!" the one in black with the long braid finished, smiling broadly.
"You BAKA!" WuFei yelled.
She giggled. "Baka is a funny name…"
"Actually, my name is Duo, Duo Maxwell. It's a pleasure to meet you Bunny," He grinned and bowed.
"Relena-hime is having a peace talk. We have to go. Something bads going down," the boy in the shadows said. "Let's go."
"Goodbye, Bunny," the blond said.
The four pilots left but one with the black hair stayed and began to talk with Sally.
"I just don't think this is right."
"But, WuFei, think of the possibilities. This girl doesn't exist. If we train her she could be just when we need. No records of her what so ever. Think of the possibilities."
"No. We fought to obtain peace. Now the peace might be destroyed, it doesn't mean we should put more people through what we went through. If we do, it will just be one more gundam pilot that could threaten the peace after this war. No."
"Ya know," Bunny said, laughing nervously. "I'm still here. I mean, not that I would have gone anywhere. Well, you are talking about me, aren't you?"
"I have to go now. Ja ne, Bunny."
The Chinese boy left, leaving a glowing Bunny behind.
"Bunny," asked the girl named Sally. "What would you say if I asked you to help save the world?"
Unthought words spilled from her lips. "I would say, Again?"

A small girl sat in a room full of lamps. 'Another boring mission. Relena Peacecraft. Poor girl, holding the weight of this broken peace on her shoulders. But soon she won't have to, because there will no longer be any peace, and she will soon be dead.' The girl ran her hands through her short black hair, and closed her large purple eyes. "Soon."
"Destruction," said a voice from the doorway. "We're going."
"I'm going to take the shot. You cover." Destruction grabbed the gun off of the dresser. Despite the fact that she was two years younger than her partner, she felt as though she should protect her from the horrors of this war. She was only fourteen, but she felt as though she was fighting for thousands of years. But that's only because she has been. "Come on Thunder. This one's for kind of peace we had hoped for."
***
Duo's eyelids began to droop. They had been standing on the balcony forever listening to their princess try to convince that peace was the correct choice of action. But more and more countries have been leaving the Sanq Kingdom. Still, Heero continued to protect her. Why?
"Your wrong," a voice said from the back of the room. The voice was cool and commanding, but it sounded so young. Heero strained his eyes to see who spoke. A girl in the back stood up. She had short black hair that looked purple in the light of the crystal chandeliers. "You cannot make people stop fighting, because they want to. This false peace will not last, because people don't want it to."
"No," Relena said. Heero studied the two. War and peace, they were so different. Long blond hair and short black hair. Eyes that were full of love and showed all emotions, and eye's that were once bright, but now are cold, dark, and dull. Who is she? "Wars take lives."
"They take lives of people who go onto the battlefield prepared to die for what they believe in. They take lives of people who are already dead because they have no reason to be otherwise. If you go onto the battlefield with the intent on dying, you will never leave."
"I am prepared to die for what I believe in, because I know that others will carry out my beliefs. I have enter this battle with the intent of dying for peace, but here I stand, because people want this peace, they just don't realize it."
"If you have entered this battle with the intent of dying for peace, than so be it," The small girl pulled out her gun and shot with inhuman aim. Heero couldn't believe it. He didn't even see her move. He couldn't protect one person. Quatre and Trowa went to help the princess, while Heero shot a round at the mysterious girl. She dodged the bullets but Duo shot one heading right at her. I green blur shot out and knocked destruction out of the way, but the second girl got hit right in the arm and the leg.
"Thunder!" she yelled.
"Leave, Destruction," she said.
"No," said Destruction, lifting up the tall brunette. Heero and Duo were running over to them. Thunder struggled free and grabbed Destruction. She pushed her out the closest window and crumbled. Heero ran to the window.
"She's gonna go splat!" Duo turned to the unconscious girl. "I can't watch,"
"What the--" Heero yelled. The girl landed cat style on the cement after her five-story drop. She looked straight into his eyes after she landed, and silently promised to return. She got up and walked away.
***
Duo carried the still unconscious girl to the Preventers headquarters where they had lived ever since the threat of the White Knights and getting the new Gundam. Duo was hesitant to leave his new home on L2 but he was glad to leave Hilde. She was a great friend, sure, but when she suddenly gets they idea that they're getting married, it's enough to make you want to get as far away as humanly possible. 'Thunder,' that's what she called this girl. The one that saved her. She was strong, but badly wounded. Duo wondered what Heero wanted to do with her. When they finally arrived at the headquarters, Bunny, Noin, and Sally were waiting. When they got in, Bunny gasped.
"Who is she?" She hovered around Duo. "She's bleeding!"
"Yeah," Duo said. "And she helped assassinate the princess."
"Oh," Bunny looked sad.
"Let's get her inside," Sally said. "We'll clean her up."
Then Noin whispered something in a shaken looking Quatre's ear. "Relena's alive but only just. All hope is not lost."
They took the girl inside, cleaned her wounds, and gave her a drug that would keep her out for another few hours. Suddenly, Noin came running in with Quatre, both close to tears.
"T.O.D 23:37," Noin said, and then left, tears streaming down his face.
"The peace is gone…" Quatre said. "Poor Millardo…"
"Yea," said Duo. "He must feel like--"
Heero cut him off. "I'm going…somewhere. Ja."
"I'm going to talk to Noin," Trowa said. "You can come, Quatre." The pair left. WuFei left after them silently.
Duo doodle with his purple gel pen on the clean, white wall of his cell. "Just me and you unconscious girl. Thunder, I think that other one called you. I wonder what your real name is?"
"Lita," said a calm voice. "I never thought I would see a gundam pilot writing in a purple gel pen…"
"Surprise," he said. "Ya know…you should be unconscious right now…we gave you enough drugs to kill a small family of birds."
"You sharing that with me makes me feel a lot better…You got a name to go with that charm?"
"Duo Maxwell," he said, still doodling. "How'd you know I'm a Gundam Pilot…"
"I lucky guess…" she said sarcastically. "What year were you born?"
"Why?" Duo asked, turning to face her.
"Just wanted to find out what it will say on your tombstone when I rip out your throat…"
"That's nice," Duo said yawning as Lita struggled in her chair. "Don't bother. It would take a miracle to get you out of there."
"If it would take a miracle then I know that Destruction is on her way."
Duo shuddered at the thought of that creepy girl.
"Well in the meantime," Duo said, leaning back in his chair. "What's your little friends real name?"
"She never told me," Lita said. "But I might be lying. I am, after all, the enemy."
"I believe you," Duo said, leaning farther back in his chair and raising his eyebrow, trying to look quirky, and only succeding in tipping his chair over and falling flat on his face. Lita giggled.
"Wow," Duo said, ribbing the red spot on his head. "Did I make you laugh, or were you think about how you little gal pal is gonna make it so that I don't have a head that would hurt."
***Meanwhile***
Destruction, or so she calls herself, her name is still unmentioned, stood on the roof of a large mansion, the wind blowing softly through her thick, dark hair.
Silently, she jumped into the air and, due to a little thing called gravity, came crashing down. But perhaps that's what she wanted. The ceiling gave way and Destruction landed in the hall of Quatre's manor.
**End 4 Now**
That's it for now…sorry it took so long to get it out I had one of the creativity drought due to my mourning over the fact that Gundam Wing is being taken off of Toonami…permanently…(99.9% sure…man how I hope for that .1%) so I'm really sad cuz I've seen every episode except one…which is Passing Destinies…oh the irony…so I feel like crap…but I'll try to write more soon…I'm also gonna try to get toonami's e-mail/regular address so sent your hate mail there!! ^-^…damn…I wanna write a Hotaru/Duo fic like my other one so much more…but Hotaru and Heero is okay…it's the fact that duo is with someone who is not Hotaru that gets me…Grrr…go to toonami.com and play the gundam wing game!!! It's hard but fun…an addictive…^-^…that's all for now…
Faint memories remain in my mind
Save yesterday, like a broken song
Searching for the true future, a lonely traveler.
My heart is crying, eyes are gazing at me - Who are you?
I only can fight: with my dream concealed ----- Far Off Dawn.
I forgot my face under the mask
Like endless darkness that covers everything
The morning grows embraced by peace
Is the color of blood that is from the soldiers.
I am looking for the future
That cannot be expected by anybody - Who are you?
Pale flame that colors the sky ----- Far Off Dawn.
With a wish that would not be granted,
I start on a journey to the sky all by myself.
My heart is crying, eyes are gazing at me - Who are you?
I only can fight, with my dream concealed ----- Far Off Dawn.
I am looking for the future
That cannot be expected by anybody - Who are you?
Pale flame that colors the sky ----- Far Off Dawn.
