"Now what?" I asked, pacing around my room. "With Duo hanging from my four poster bed by rope, that's one
less ally." Things were just getting horrible. With Duo gone, that meant that the other Gundam Pilots were in
trouble as well. And there was nothing... nothing that I could do to protect them. Here I was, the most powerful
seventeen-year-old in the world, and I couldn't even save my friends! The only true friends that I've ever had!

That's... the vid-monitor...

I walked over to the screen on my desk and sat down on my chair. "Don't..." Hilde said, putting her hand on
my shoulder.

"I have to..." I said, flipping the switch to 'on'. "Yes? Relena Darlian here."


"Hello again to you, Relena." The Voice intoned from the other end.

"Yes, Dana, I know it's you. You don't need to use the voice-changer." Best to get that part out of the way, right?

"Dang it! How'd ya know it was me?" A brunette girl popped in front of the camera on the other end. So...
a seemingly normal looking girl was an insane psycho murderer?

I smiled, "A little bird told me, I guess. Is there something that you wanted to tell me?"

"Well yeah." She started, looking sheepish all of a sudden. "I'm sorry."
This... well, shocked me. Why was she sorry? Wasn't she supposed to be this completely manicial person who was
drunk off of her own power? Then why in the world would she apologize?

"Why the hell are you sorry?" Hilde asked, glaring at Dana through the screen. If looks could kill...

"Just sorry. You'll find out soon enough." She looked down at the floor, "I'll let you know later if I have some more
information for you. Just know now that Heero's safe."

And with that, she said "good-bye" and logged off.

"What the hell was that all about?" Hilde asked, walking around the room in a huff. "Why was she sorry...? What
did she do now?"

"To be entirely honest, I have no clue. At least we know that she won't hurt Heero." I sighed. Was he truely going
to be safe with her? What did she mean by safe? Was she actually helping us? No... that couldn't be it...could it?
She's a psycho. That's all there is to it. Right? Why am I even having doubts?

Lady Une and Dorothy walked into my room. "Well... an interesting development, Miss Relena. I don't have any
information for you either. How odd." Dorothy said, smiling that little smile of hers.

"Lady Une, do you have any insights into her character? Did anyone do a psycho-analysis on her?" I asked, perhaps
if I knew about her... what she was like then maybe...just *maybe* I could figure out her true motives. And with that
information... I could rescue Heero. How odd... a princess rescuing *anyone*. If I weren't so stressed, I'd think
that was pretty funny.

"No one could get close enough to, Vice-Foreign Minister. She never really had any friends, save one Cassandra
Rhieman. She was Dana's best friend in the 1970's, but Dana went insane and tried to go back and time to kill her,
or at least, that's how the stories go." Lady Une recited. Like she'd rehearsed... Gods...

"What made her go insane?" Hilde interjected herself into the conversation. "I find it hard to believe that you'd
want to kill your best friend before she was even BORN for something minor...like taking her boyfriend?"

"Actually..." Dorothy said, gazing out my picture window, "That's exactly what happened."

AN- Well, we learned a little bit more about Dana this chapter, now didn't we? See, Dana had her own story,
a complete and utter original about how she went insane and tried to kill Cassie by going 20 years in the past,
not only to kill her mother, but to find out more about herself...(see, she's an orphan...her mom died when she was
4 and she never met her dad. She's got a very screwed up family history... hence her insanity, really.) If you want
to read it... well, you'll just have to get in line...*g* I have to get it typed up and schtuff. I wrote it around 3 years
ago...so it kinda sucks. I'll have to edit the crap out of it too...*sighs* this could take a while. Oh... and she
built her time machine to go to the past but she accidently went 20 years in the future... to the year 1997. lol,
yes, all because of a little boy trouble. Ahh well, as usual, expect the unexpected from Konie. She likes to surprise
people. Then she laughs at the people she surprises.
