~Chapter 8~
"Remember......"
Those words echoed through Quatre's head. "Remember what?" he whispered. He turned
around and made himself comfortable, hoping to get back to sleep. No such luck. Every time he
closed his eyes, the death and destruction seen in his dream was replayed by his memory.
He got up out of bed and walked over to the window. He stared out at the moon. It looked
strangely beautiful tonight, although he wasn't sure why. He sighed and picked up his robe.
Pulling it on, he opened the door and left the room.
~Minako's Room~
Minako tossed and turned. There was no way that she could get back to sleep. Not after what
she had just seen! And that couple, the one that looked just like herself and Quatre. What did it
all mean?
She got out of bed and walked up to the window. Pushing aside the lace curtains, and glanced
up at the moon. It was so mysterious. It's light shone down on the earth as if trying to tell it's
story. She continued to stare at it for a moment when she decided to leave and take a walk
around Quatre's mansion.
Retrieving her robe from the bathroom, she then proceeded to the hallway.
She wasn't sure where everything was, so she decided that she would just explore. She passed
many rooms without going in. Something was drawing her farther down the hall. She finally
found herself standing in front of a huge door at the end. She immediately recognized it as the
music room that Quatre had shown her when he gave her a tour of his home.
Grasping the brass handle, she slowly turned it and pushed the door forward. As it gave way, she
slowly stepped in.
~The Kitchen~
Quatre sat down at the kitchen table with a cup of tea in hopes that it would calm him down a
bit. However he couldn't get his mind off of that dream. He felt as if he should investigate
it...but what was there to investigate? It was a dream! Just his mind sorting out the days events,
although how this dream was a product of that days events, he had no idea.
When he had finished his tea, he set the cup down and stood back up. He knew that he still
wouldn't be able to sleep, so he decided to head upstairs and release some of the stress the way
that he always had.
~The Music Room~
Minako fumbled around the room until she finally found the lightswitch. Flipping it on, she
looked around at the familiar room. She looked around again at the beautiful display of
instruments, until her eyes landed again on the gorgeous grand piano. She slowly walked up to
it, and gently placed her fingers on the keys, just lightly enough so that it didn't make any sound.
She brushed the keys with her fingers as she walked the width of the piano. Her heart filled with
longing the more she looked at it. She sat down at the bench and decided that she would play.
'What will I play?' she wondered to herself. 'I don't even remember if I know how to play.' She
sat for a moment, staring at the black and white keys. She finally came to the conclusion that
there would be only one way to find out.
She closed her eyes and placed both her hands on the keys. 'Here goes nothing.' she thought.
She gently pressed her hands down, causing the sound of beautifully harmonized notes stream
out of the piano. She then moved her hands up and down, playing the song as if she had written
it herself. The music calmed her spirit and soothed her soul.
~The Hallway~
Quatre continued his journey to the music room and stopped when he heard the beautiful sound
of music coming from down the hall. 'Who could that be?' he wondered. He quickened his pace
as his curiosity got the better of him. He peered into the door and looked to the center of the
room.
There, he saw Minako sitting at the piano, her hands expertly dancing on the keys. He sighed at
the sound of the beautiful music. There was something about this song......'That's it!' he thought.
'The one that we danced to!' he felt relieved that he had at least figured that out. He wasn't sure
how, but he knew this song. He quietly stepped into the room, making his way up to the piano.
Right next to it was his prized violin.
Minako poured her heart and soul into the song that she played. It somehow brought comfort to
her troubled soul. She was so lost in the music that she didn't notice an arm reach down next to
her and lift the violin off of it's stand.
Quatre took a deep breath as he brought the violin up to his chin. He hadn't remembered ever
playing this song, but he felt as if he knew it. Without waiting another moment, he began to
play.
Minako thought that she was going crazy. She was so engrossed in the song that she could've
sworn that there was another instrument playing with her(AN: Funny how these two can be so
oblivious of eachother!). It was a violin. The sound of the violin and piano combined triggered
something inside of her that caused a tear to fall from her eyes.
Quatre closed his eyes as he let his arms control the violin, playing the familiar song. He had
never played such a beautiful song in his life. He felt as if he was floating on air.
When the song ended, Minako sighed. 'How did I do that?' she wondered. She jumped when
someone placed a hand on her shoulder. She turned around as her eyes met with Quatre's. "I'm
sorry." she said, "I didn't know that anyone else was here. Did I wake you up? I'm so sorry."
Quatre smiled. "No need to apologize. I couldn't sleep, so I decided to play my violin for a bit."
Minako returned his smile. "You're very good." she said.
"Thank you. But you're amazing!" he said. Minako blushed. "I wasn't sure if I knew how to
play or not, so I just went for it!" she sighed. There was an akward silence as Minako stared at
the floor. Her cheery mood was replaced by one of sadness when her mind went back to the
dream.
"Quatre?" she asked, quietly. "Hmm?"came the reply. Minako looked up at him and took a
deep breath. "I know that we hardly know eachother, but....." she started as Quatre sat down next
to her. "I don't know." she said. "I had this dream....it really bothered me. Well, once I woke
up, I wanted nothing more than to be with you. It's weird, 'cuz I've only been here for one day!"
Quatre nodded. "I had a strange dream too." he said. "And ever since, I've felt the same about
you." he finished. Minako smiled. "I don't think that I'll ever get to sleep after that!" she said.
Quatre smiled. "Well, we can talk then. Hey! Maybe we can take a look at that locket of
yours!"
"Yeah!" Minako said, jumping up. "It's in my room. Let's go." Quatre carefully placed his violin
back on it's stand and followed Minako out the door.
~In a Dark Cave~
The white-haired man watched as the two headed towards Minako's room. He smiled as he
watched. "Try as hard as you like." he said, quietly. "You'll never open that locket." He picked
up a glass of wine and took a sip. "As long as I am miserable, dear princess, so shall you be." he
smiled.
Setting the wine glass back down, he turned his head away from the glass ball. "Flourite! Come
here at once!" he shouted. A moment later, a woman entered the room.
She was tall with waist-length black hair and piercing black eyes. She wore a silky green
sundress and black high-heeled shoes. "Yes, master Danburite(AN: Yeah! You guessed it!)?"
she said in a deep voice. Danburite stood up and gestured to the glass ball. The picture closed in
on to Quatre. "I need you to get rid of him, make sure that his "girlfriend" suffers. I am confident
that you will be able to come up with a plan?"
"Yes, master." she blushed, honored that he would choose her for such a task. "I will do my very
best. You will not be disappointed." With that she left the room.
Danburite sat back down in his throne. "Soon." he said. "Very soon. You will learn, Venus.
You will learn that you can never beat me." He picked up his glass of wine and took another sip.
~Minako's Bedroom~
(AN: Just so you know, nothing is going to HAPPEN between Minako and Quatre, so get your
sick little minds out of the gutter!)
"Have a seat." Minako offered, gesturing to her bed. Quatre sat down as she opened her top
dresser drawer, pulling out her locket. She sat down next to him and placed it in his hands.
"Hmm." Quatre said as he examined it. He searched all over, but couldn't find any way to open
it. He tried just pulling it, hoping that some hidden opening would reveal itself, but he had no
such luck. After a few minutes of trying this, he sighed and handed it back to Minako.
"I'm sorry." he said, "but I just can't seem to open it." "It's alright." Minako said, a bit
disappointed. She sighed and fell back on to one of her pillows. "Quatre?" she asked quietly.
Quatre looked down at her. "Do you believe in destiny?" Quatre laid back next to her. "What
do you mean?" he asked. "Like," she started, "Do you believe that someone has a certain destiny,
and there's no way to escape it, nomatter how hard they try?"
Quatre nodded. "Why do you ask?" he questioned. Minako sighed. "I don't know." she said, "It's
just that," she paused. "Horrible things have happened to me in the last couple days. I lost my
memory, I almost died. But maybe there's a reason for all of this? Maybe it's all part of my
destiny?" Quatre nodded again.
"Well," he started, "If this is your destiny, I'm glad that it's blessing mine." he smiled. Minako
returned his smile. Turning to face him, she brushed a strand of platinum-blonde hair out of his
face. 'This is so familiar...' she thought. His blue eyes were the last thing she saw before falling
asleep.
~The Next Morning~
Duo stretched as he stood up out of his bed. He pulled on some clothes and walked out of his
room, yawning. As he passed Minako's room, he saw the door begin to open. He expected to
see Minako walking out, but gasped when he saw Quatre instead!
"Quatre?!?!" he yelled. "What are you doing in there?!?!" he asked, shocked(AN: Duo should
really learn to mind his own buisness....). Quatre blushed just as Minako appeared behind him.
"Good morning, Duo." she greeted. Duo's mouth dropped all the way to the ground.
"I can't believe this! Of all the people!! Quatre?!?!" Duo shouted. "NO!" Quatre yelled. "We
didn't do anything! We just fell asleep!" "Sure......" Duo said with a smirk. "You hentai!"
Minako shouted. "Whoa! Whoa! Look who's calling who a hentai!" Duo tried his hardest to
suppress his laughter, but it didn't stay back very long.
"Duo! Stop this at once!" Quatre shouted, very angry. He took Minako by the hand and
practically dragged her downstairs. Once they reached the bottom, he stopped and faced her.
"I'm so sorry about that." he started, "He can be such a baka at times." "Don't worry about it."
she said. They then headed towards the kitchen for some breakfast.
When they walked in, Heero, Wufei and Trowa were already there. "Good morning." he said,
trying to put on a cheerful mood and forget about Duo. There wasn't a reply, but Quatre was
expecting that. A sudden beeping noise caused Heero to stand up and walk out of the room. He
returned a moment later, holding a file folder. "There's been an emergency at work, and all of us
are needed." he lied. The three other pilots knew exactly what he meant.
"I'm sorry." Quatre said, turning to Minako, "I should be back in a few hours." He turned around
and followed the pilots out of the kitchen. Minako followed them. "Is there anything I can do to
help?" she asked. "Just stay here." Quatre said. "I'll be back soon!" Minako watched as they
headed upstairs to get Duo. Then they headed out the front door and into Quatre's car. Minako
sighed when something on the floor caught her attention. "What's this?" she asked herself,
picking it up. It was a piece of paper that had obviously fallen from Heero's folder. She turned it
over and her eyes went wide as she began to read.
Notes: DUN DUN DUN!!!! Oh no!!!! Minako found Heero's files!! What's she gonna do?
What's Heero gonna do to her when he finds out? Oh the possibilities! Now, reviews have kinda
been slacking lately, and it leads me to believe that you people don't really like this story
anymore, so if I don't get very many reviews then I will not continue this! So if you want more,
just write SOMETHING in the box below! Even if you write 'good' or 'sux' I will be happy.
Thanks!
