boys:sniff::. Also, anything that happened/s like wasn't planned on! TOTAL
FICTION!
Lady
Une smiled evilly as she typed a message to the other Gundam Pilots to meet Jessica
and Arianna in the Conference Room. 'This is for what Jessica's done to me'
she thought to herself as she finished typing up the message, and sent it to
the Gundam Pilot's computers.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Duo Maxwell looked at his computer screen while a message
popped up telling him that he had e-mail. 'Another one? Not like I have
enough e-mail to look through already.' He opened it and read it to
himself. 'Dear Gundam Pilots, you have a mission today at twenty hundred
hours. You will meet two fellow officers in the Conference Room. Just to inform
you, these two have very short tempers {like a certain pilot}. ~Lady Une.' "
DAMNITT! Another mission?! And who am I going meet other than
Wuffy, Q, Tro-man, and Hee-chan? Hmm… I wonder…"
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Twenty hundred hours…
"Hey Hee-chan! Do ya know who these people we're working on
the mission are? I've already asked Q, Tro-man, and Wuffy, they don't know…
and… well. The dudes aren't here yet!" Duo asked as the last of the five Gundam
Pilots came into the Conference Room.
"Umm… no." Heero said as he rolled his eyes, " I did get
the same e-mail as you did."
"Don't… ever… call… me… Wuffy! INJUSTICE!" Wufei said as he
took out his katana and was about to push it against Duo's throat… but two
female giggles interrupted.
"Hehe… so immature…" Jessica and Arianna said in unison as Jessica
rolled her deep purple eyes.
"WHO THE HELL ARE YOU TWO?!" Wufei said as he put his
katana back into its sheath.
"Um, the right people to do this mission… without… you" Arianna
said pointedly.
"INJUSTICE!!!" Wufei shouted as his face reddened at the
insult.
"Calm down Wu-man! Anyways ladies…" Duo says as he pats
Wufei's shoulder. " I'm Duo, this is Wufei or Wuffy… which ever, that's…" He
says as he points to Heero, Quatre, and Trowa in turn. " Heero, Quatre,
annnnnnd… Trowa!"
"Well, I'm Angel and this here… is… um, or was… JESSICA!!!
GET YOUR ASS BACK HERE!" Arianna says as she hurried down the hallway to
retrieve her friend. Arianna finally caught up with Jessica at the end of the
hallway, caught her arm and spun her around. Arianna noticed the glazed look in
Jessica's eyes and asked what was wrong. "Jess…. c'mon, what's wrong? They're
just guys, nothing to be afraid of…"
Jessica jerked her arm away from Arianna and ran her hand through
her hair agitatedly. "There sure as hell is, especially when those 'guys' are
Gundam Pilots. And I betrayed one of them before… God… I never thought I would
see him again… DAMNIT!" Jessica yelled as she punched the wall. "Oww…" She
said, shaking her hand.
"Now that you're feeling better, we should go back and TALK
to them. You know, the art of communication? NOT run out the door as soon as
you see them!" Arianna said, trying to get through to Jessica.
Jessica sighed and straightened her shoulders. "Ok. I'm
ready now." And followed Arianna back to her certain doom. 'Stop thinking
like that! Be positive… he should have gotten over it by now… or not…'
"Finally! You guys… er…I mean…" Duo stuttered, trying to
think of the right thing to say. 'Damn! Open mouth, insert foot.' "Well…glad you're back!" He said smiling
weakly.
"Weak onna…" Wufei whispered under his breath.
"What'd you say? Care to repeat that louder?" Arianna asked
Wufei.
"I said… weak… onna!" He said matter-of-factly.
"Ok… just wondering… so I didn't kick your ass over
something that I heard wrong," Arianna said as she started to walk closer to
Wufei and punched him.
Wufei had stood his ground, not expecting the onna to go
through with her threat. He certainly didn't expect to be knocked backwards by
her punch like he was. His eyes narrowed as he rubbed his jaw and started
towards her to give as good as he got. He got up close to Arianna and actually
started to punch her back when all of a sudden, Yuy was in his way. "Get out of
my way," He growled at Heero.
Heero raised an eyebrow at this. "So you can…what? Punch
her back and totally destroy any kind of working relationship in the mission?
That comes first, you can feud later." Heero said as he released Wufei's fist
and watched the slightly smaller pilot take a calming breath.
Meanwhile, Jessica was standing off to the side, pretending
to be invisible. 'Maybe…maybe if I stand still enough, they'll forget I'm
here.' She felt a soft tap on her shoulder and all hope for invisibility
went out the window. She turned around to face a platinum blond man at about
20. She smiled and held out her hand for him to shake. "Hi, I'm Jessica."
Quatre gave her a warm smile and a wink as he shook her
hand. "I know, I heard your friend scream it. I'm Quatre."
Destiny flushed with embarrassment as she remembered her
flight out the door. "Um…sorry about that. Girl stuff, you know. We should
really get started on the briefing for the case." She said to change the topic
onto familiar working ground.
"Maybe if we just leave them and sit at the table, then
they'll get the hint." Quatre suggested.
"That might work…or not…" She said as she saw the way that
Arianna and Wufei were glaring at each other. "Oh, well the denser ones will
get it eventually." She said and found a seat at the table across from Quatre.
"So…Quatre…" She started until Trowa decided to sit down next to her. "Why'd
you decide to be a Gundam pilot? If you don't mind me asking," She said
quickly, trying to ignore Trowa's presence even though that was like trying to
stop a tank with a picket fence.
Quatre leaned forward intently, "I don't mind," He said,
shrugging his shoulders. "I want people to know, actually. I fight so others
don't have to. We need soldiers at this time as much as we need Relena to bring
peace. It's a complicated line to walk. Enforcing peace, and not becoming
militaristic."
Jessica nodded, agreeing with what Quatre was saying.
"Sometimes I wonder if war would be simpler, but then I see how happy the
people are now. They were never really happy during the war…everything was a
life or death decision…" Jessica trailed off, remembering the past and mentally
shrugged it off.
"You seem to speak from experience." Quatre said, noticing
the faraway look in her eyes.
"I think everyone here that's our age, speaks from
experience. Oh, look here they come." Jessica said, noticing the others finally
coming to the table. "I thought you were never coming! That you were just gonna
stare at Wufei," Jessica teased Arianna who snorted indelicately.
"Yeah. RIGHT. Stare at Wufei. Uh-huh. I'd rather eat shit. You'd
rather talk about being Midii for a week. Oops, did I say that?" Arianna said,
looking scared and ran over to hide behind Heero as Jessica started towards
her.
"Come back here you little…" Jessica growled, mad that Arianna
had let slip that little fact this early in talking to the ex-pilots.
Arianna stuck her tongue out at Jessica from behind Heero.
"I'm not that stupid, no matter what anyone says!"
Heero watched this with a puzzled expression in his eyes
and looked at the other ex-pilots. They all had the same expression in varying
degrees except for…Trowa. He looked…Shocked? …Angry? …Slightly confused too?
Since when had Trowa expressed his emotions that openly?
Arianna put her arms out in front of her and started
apologizing. "I didn't mean it! Really, I didn't!"
Jessica stopped and got an evil smile on her face. "Well,
since you told my secret I'll just have to tell what I know."
Arianna brazened it out. "You wouldn't." The smile on Jessica's
face grew bigger, and Arianna flopped down in a random chair and flung an arm
over her eyes. "Oh, hell! You would too. Fine! Ya want me to do it? Ok, then.
Duo, you knew me when we were in a gang together under Solo. I had short hair
then, but I was still loud then." Arianna took her arm off her face and glared
at Jessica. "Happy now? Want me to tell them everything else too? About the
Doctors and EVERYTHING?!" Arianna said getting up in Jessica's face.
Jessica sat down in the chair she had occupied previously.
"We might as well. Their reactions if we have to show what happened to us would
be…interesting to say the least."
"Ok, then." Arianna said as she stood at the head of the
table. "One way or another we all got to the Scientists in the end, and we got
our…powers. All of us have a different story on how we got there and only they
will decide on if you will know or not. The Scientists were experimenting with
gene therapy and creating things like telepathy in humans. We are the products
of those experiments. I am a 1st generation which means they
experimented on me but Arianna here," she pointed at Jessica, "is 2nd
generation, which means they experimented on her mother. They only used girls
for this project; don't ask me why. You may also hear us refer to someone named
Maverick. She's the woman that the Scientist's brought in to teach us on how to
use our powers. She's slightly different than us in the way that she wasn't an artificially
made witch like us. She was a natural one that the Doctors got a hold of and
increased her gifts with the gene therapy. They also did the same with her
daughter Fiona who some of you may meet. Lianne, who we're going to rescue, is
1st generation in telepathy. Jessica is 2nd generation in
telekinesis, and I'm 1st generation and I do weather-craft." Arianna
took a breath and sat down, not looking at anyone.
Quatre was the first one who came out of the shock this
information put them in. "So…you're telling me that witches are real." He said
trying to get the facts straight, "And that you guys were…made into them…and a
natural one taught you to use your powers?"
"Yeah… That's about it." Jessica said softly.
"So…Wuffy over there almost got fried, lightning style?"
Duo asked bluntly to Arianna.
"Not really… You see, the first thing we were taught was
control over our powers. Our emotions are now almost totally separated from
them, unless you say something that reminds us of something in our pasts.
Mostly we're still sensitive." Arianna said, trying to smile at Duo.
"Now that we have
the background information out of the way, we can get down to business," Jessica
said. "Lianne has been captured and we have reason to believe that this may be
linked to a threat from yet another organization trying to overthrow the
present-day government. We need her back."
"What evidence do you have, suggesting the involvement of a
rebel organization?" Heero asked.
"That the last time someone captured her, we beat them to a
bloody pulp. And…he would know better by now that he needs…insurance to come up
against us. The rest is just guesses." Arianna said, shrugging her shoulders.
"Then why need us?" Duo asked.
"Lady Une made us take you. I believe her exact words were,
"…I don't want to loose my two best spies over something stupid like not having
enough back-up with them," Arianna replied.
"What is it with you and dangerous occupations?!" Duo
asked, exasperated with Arianna.
Arianna just sighed, "You can argue with me about it on our
way there. So… Let's go."
