AN:

This'll be a Trowa/Usagi ficcie. I've been reading some reviews and

after that previous story I wrote called Time Changes Everything, I saw

that lots of people would want me to try to write a T/S fic, so here I am.

It takes around when Quatre is on Zero system and shoots Trowa

down. Meaning that Trowa is in the amnesia stage.

Oi, sucky title. Couldn't really see much on what a title should be, so

I just used that as one. Gomen nasai, minna. .

Hope it goes well... ~.~

This will be a one-shot ficcie. ^_^

*********

It was night time now. The artificial stars were shining overhead in the

Colony. Some people were outside, doing night shopping or just because

they felt like it. But either way, the streets weren't deserted and certainly

not quiet.

In one part of the Colony was a teenager, her hair was long and up in two

buns resembling meatballs. Golden and smooth like silk. Her crystalline

blue eyes however held loneliness and emptiness as she gazed out

at the nearby shuttle place.

(It's so lonely out here...being by myself isn't all that great, is it?)the

teenager said to herself and heaved a sigh.

Just as she was about to turn around to go back to her place she saw

someone stumble out of the shuttleport. Worry took over her senses alongside

wonderment on who this could be. Quickly she fell by the body and noticing

that no one else was around, took off the helmet over the person's head.

Brown hair that covered one part of his face met her. From the looks of it

he was from a latin origin and probably seventeen at her guess.

(Only a year older than me...)the girl noted and then heaved him upwards.

She got his arm to drape around her neck and then proceeded to drag him

towards her place in the colony.

(I can't just leave him out here and the hospital is a bit full with the

war going on. I have to take care of him myself. It doesn't look

too life threatning, thank goodness!)the girl remarked.

Reaching the tall apartment building she sneaked inside, making sure the

guard on the doorway didn't see her then hurriedly stepped over to the

elevator and pressed the fifth floor. Upon reaching that floor, she

dragged the mysterious stranger to her door number 7 and went inside as

she carefully made sure not to drop the teen when she reached for her

key card.

Closing the door, she thus proceeded to drag the man to her couch and attentively

laid him there. Taking off her jean jacket, she put it aside and went to her

bathroom to retrieve the First Aide Kit.

With some effort, the teen began to bandage the brown haired boy and

put away some unnecessary articles of clothing that he didn't need. That

left him with only his boxers. Blushing at what met her, she went and

got him a warm blanket and put it over his body after she finished

treating his injuries.

(He's not all that bad looking.)the teenager noted, brushing aside his

bangs.

"I wonder who you are and I would just love to know what the color of your

eyes are,"she whispered, her blue eyes softly glowing and changing from the

once lonely and empty orbs to one that cares.

Getting up from her kneeling position she put away the kit and went to

prepare dinner. Just in case he may wake up that day, but in the end

she was met with silence and saw that he was still asleep on the couch.

Putting away the soup, she made sure the blanket was still on him and then

went to bed.

Early morning, the blond haired teen got the clothes washed and

stored away for when he may wake up and then went to check up on him. Sure

enough, he was still unconscious. But just as she was about to get up from

her positon by him, a hand shot up and gently grabbed her wrist. Her head

swiveled down towards the boy. Dark green eyes met her crystalline blue.

"Wh-Where am I?"the boy spoke up.

(Dark green eyes..)the blond noted.

"Over at my apartment. I found you lying unconscious yesterday night and

I decided to take you in. You were hurt and the hospitals...well they

don't exactly have enough room for anymore injured citizens with the war

brewing,"the girl told him.

"And..who are you?"the teenager asked her.

"My name is Usagi. Usagi Tsukino,"Usagi answered him.

The boy merely nodded towards her in acknowledgement.

"Do you remember what happened? What you were doing out in

outerspace? You should've been in outerspace, anyways. You were dressed

for the part and came from the shuttleport,"Usagi asked him.

The boy slowly shook his head, narrowing his eyes as he tried to

recall past events but failed.

"How about on who you are? Can you remember your name?"Usagi gently asked.

Again she was met with a shaking of a head.

(He can't remember...amnesia..)Usagi sadly uttered to herself.

"That's okay. You can stay here with me! I could use some

company anyways,"Usagi beamed down on him.

The boy agreed by a mere nod and then laid back down on the pillow behind

his head.

"We should call you something...hmm..."Usagi pondered over several names

but came up with a blank.

Deep in the boy's mind, he came up with two but chose one out of the latter.

"Nanashi...call me Nanashi, would that do?"the boy asked.

"Nanashi. It's fitting, isn't it? Yes, that's what we'll call you,"Usagi

smiled at him.

(I could get used to her smiles. She has a kind personality.)Nanashi

asserted.

"Are you hungry?"Usagi asked him.

"Not yet, thank you,"Nanashi uttered and his lids fell heavy and soon fell

asleep.

That afternoon, Usagi went to the kitchen and heated up some soup for

her friend and made two sandwhiches in addition to the soup. Picking

the items up, she set them down on the kitchen table nearby and went to

get some drinks.

(So peaceful...)Usagi noted but shook her head and sat down to help

herself with a sandwhich.

Several minutes later, Usagi turned her head towards Nanashi and

there he was wide awake and watching her eat.

"Help yourself, this is your home as well..."Usagi ushered.

"Hn."Nanashi got up and drifted on over to the table.

From there, the two continued on eating, not saying a word to anyone.

But this didn't mean they weren't uncomfortable, not in the least. They

just enjoyed the quiet tranquility that made its way to their apartment

complex and were secretly amiable of the others company.

After eating, Usagi rose up to put away the dishes when a hand stopped

her from reaching out for the second plate to put in the sink. Looking

up, Nanashi was there and picked up the plates on the table and walked

over to the kitchen and soon running water was heard and dishes being

cleaned.

(So helpful..)Usagi added to her thoughts and inwardly smiled at his

assistance.

About two hours after their meal, Nanashi came out of the shower dressed

and in clean clothes. He was wearing only a green turtleneck and

blue jeans without the space suit on.

"We really should go somewhere, are you familiar with the city?"Usagi

asked him.

He shook his head in response and so Usagi took him out of the apartment

and towards the light of the Colony.

"This is Colony L3. It's not famous or anything, but it is one

of the colonies in outerspace,"informed Usagi as she unconsciously

grabbed his hand and led her around the place.

"This is the place where I found you,"Usagi pointed out a section

near the building.

(Familiar...yes..)Nanashi stored away the small information into his

brain and faced her.

"Where else would you like to go?"Usagi inquired.

She was met with silence.

"You're a guest and new to this place. Choose something,

anything,"Usagi pressed on.

"That place, in the park,"Nanashi turned towards the trees nearby.

"One of the places I like most about this Colony,"Usagi smiled

at him and the two went off.

After their small event two days ago the two seemed to have hit

a bond with one another. Even though Nanshi barely spoke, Usagi

was fine with it and enjoyed his company. She wasn't alone and

neither was he. It was perfect.

One night, Usagi was sitting by the windowsill staring out of the

window, her legs propped up and her arms wrapped up around them.

Her hair was actually down, her golden mane spilled out and

reaching the floor.

"You're up,"Nanashi's voice pointed out.

"I was just staring up at the sky,"Usagi murmered.

"Looking at what? It's nothing but darkness,"Nanashi said.

"I know,"Usagi looked at her hands momentarily and then turned

her head towards Nanashi who was quietly observing her with his

dark green orbs. She slightly blushed and then averted his eyes

as she went on gazing up at darkness.

"I've never seen the moon or the stars before...well I've seen

stars but never the moon. I live in a Colony and well, there is no

moon to look forward to at night. Someday, I'd like to see

it,"Usagi revealed.

"Maybe you will, you just have to try is all,"Nanashi uttered.

"Yes, and maybe you'll come with me to watch it,"Usagi softly

smiled.

He didn't smile back but his green eyes flashed happiness for

a brief moment.

"Will I ever get my memories back?"Nanashi wondered, not looking

at her but at the window.

"Honestly, I don't know but...either way with or without memories

I'm here. I'll always be here, for you,"Usagi told him.

"Hn."Nanashi nodded his head and the two continued on in quiet

reverence as they just sat there under the small illumination of

light being offered to them from the lamps standing outside.

Four days after that small conversation they've shared, they grew

used to each other and it was a daily cycle for them. They would

go around and have small strolls down the streets or at the park.

Or they would stay home and watch movies, television, etc. But

some days they'd be by themselves like one of them went to buy

the groceries or had to go to school or a part time job. Just like

any normal people would do.

On that fourth day however something came up.

"Hey Nanashi! I'm home!"Usagi cheerfully called out.

Nanashi came up to greet her as he revealed himself to her from the

kitchen. He was dressed in a black sweater and usual blue jeans.

"I've got something to tell you! The circus is coming by in a

day! Would you like to go?"Usagi blurted out, setting down her

school bag beside the entrance and closing the door.

(The circus?...)Nanashi's eyes dulled a bit from the news she

has offered.

"Nanashi? Are you okay?"Usagi's features changed to one of concern.

Nanashi slowly nodded in response and shook his head to clear away

the blurriness as he made out a small scene that quickly came and went

away from his mind.

"Was what I said, triggered something? In the past?"Usagi softly

asked him.

(..Should I? Should I tell her?)Nanashi pondered.

"Tell me, Nanashi. Did it?"Usagi pressed.

Nanashi stood there for awhile, staring at Usagi's watering eyes.

(So sad...but why?)Nanashi asked himself.

"It's true, isn't it? The circus is something about your past. What

else do you remember?"Usagi interrogated.

"Nothing, nothing else,"Nanashi sighed and went back into the kitchen.

For the rest of that day, neither one struck out in a conversation.

Because they knew that if they did, it would only end up in sadness.

The very next day, it changed. For the two of them when word got

out that the circus has come into town. And once they did hear

about it, silence insued and rain came down.

"It's raining,"Usagi murmered out as she gazed out the window. It

was artificial rain, they all knew that, but it was still there and

would be on for several hours and maybe just a few minutes, either way

darkness caved in all around the colony with water droplets falling

from the ceiling of the Colony.

Nanashi merely nodded at what she said and stood behind her.

"Are you going? To see the tents and the people?"Usagi asked him, not

turning her back.

Silence.

"You should, it's part of your past and I can't hold you down from

what you are,"Usagi continued on.

"Maybe going there will finally let you remember and...you can go

back to your own life. It'd be best kept that way,"Usagi proceeded

to tell her friend.

"Yes,"Nanashi uttered in his usual tone and strolled out the door.

A click was soon heard as the wooden door shut and footsteps echoed

down the corridor and then silence.

Usagi bowed her head and went on looking out of her window in the

apartment.

(I'll miss you, Nanashi. I'll always remember....)Usagi promised herself.

As her eyes travelled around the Colony outside, she noticed her friend

Nanashi walk out in the rain and into the crowd. There she watched

as a redhead notice him and approached the one named Nanashi. She said

something and he turned to her and together the two went off.

(I can't keep you forever...you have your own life..)Usagi said to herself

and a teardrop fell from her eyes and rolled down her cheek to her chin.

From there it splattered to her knees.

~.~.~1.5 Years Later~.~.~ (((Note: Will Now be After Endless Waltz)))

Trowa Barton and the other G-pilots didn't exactly seperate after the

war was over. Nope, not at all. Instead, they hang around Quatre's

mansion for awhile, at least until they got back into their own feet.

They do need a well earned vacation after all.

Right now, nothing was happening but the calming sound of the

wind driving by and the trees swaying to the breeze. Night time

was approaching and you could make out birds flying towards the

trees and chirping up a crowd.

"Trowa,"Quatre's voice called out to him.

He turned his head to his best friend, Quatre.

"Dinner's coming up, do you want to go?"Quatre inquired.

He nodded his head and followed him. Duo soon came up behind the

two of them and wore a smiling face.

"Hey guys!"Duo greeted cheerfully.

The three of them proceeded into the dining room and once everyone

was there, they ate their dinner. Duo continued chatting about

whatever and everyone else....well ignored him except for Quatre who

was just being kind and polite to the cheerful boy.

"Where are we going to go after this, anyways?"Duo spoke out after

he finished eating along with the others.

There was silence.

"Easy, we just go on about our lives, Maxwell,"Wufei answered after

careful deliberation.

"That's it? That's what's going to happen?"Duo furrowed his eyebrows.

"Not what you imagined was it?"Wufei smirked.

"Nope, not at all,"Duo shook his head.

"Where are you going to go?"Quatre asked them all.

"I guess...go to Preventors, like I've been doing lately,"Wufei shrugged.

"Back...back to Hilde and probably go to school inbetween

the times I work,"Duo guessed.

Quatre's eyes drifted from Heero to Trowa now.

Heero glared but then he closed his eyes and thought about what to say.

"Home,"Heero merely spoke out one single word and that held everyone's

interest.

"Home?"Duo dumbly uttered.

"Hn."Heero nodded and left it like that.

(Never knew he had a place to go back to. I always thought he

was alone...hmm..wonder where it could be.)Duo said to himself

as he eyed the Perfect Soldier a little while longer until he

received a death glare from him.

"How about you, Trowa? Where are you going to go?"Quatre asked

him.

"Over to the circus?"Duo guessed.

Trowa's eyes went over to the overly large window in front of him and

gazed out at it.

*Flashback*

Night time.

Long golden hair spilled out behind her.

"Honestly, I don't know but...either way with or without memories

I'm here. I'll always be here, for you,"Usagi told him.

*End Flashback*

"Trowa?"Quatre's voice intruded his line of thought.

All of the guys were staring at him now except for Heero and well..

Wufei tried not to but you could sort of tell he was observing his

movements from the corners of his eyes.

Before he could say anything, Rashid came in.

"I'm sorry to intrude you all, but there's someone here to see

Mr. Barton,"Rashid apologized.

"To see Trowa? How in the world did someone find out he was

here?"Duo wondered out loud.

Getting up, the group went with Trowa to the living room and

someone was sitting on the couch. At the sound of them entering,

the figure got up and turned around.

"Cathrine,"Trowa stated.

"Hey Trowa,"Cathrine smiled at him but he didn't smile back.

"How'd you find out where we were?"Duo asked.

"Just a wild hunch, actually,"Cathrine shrugged.

"Oh.."Duo didn't know what else to say so he just kept quiet.

"We'll be leaving you two now,"Quatre said.

The group began to leave the room and went their own ways for the

time being. Once they left, Cathrine stared at her friend and

almost brother. He in turn, stared right back.

"You're probably wondering why I'm here, right?"Cathrine smiled.

He didn't say yes or no, neither did he shake his head at her.

"Well I'm here to deliver something to you from someone,"Cathrine

proceeded on the small conversation.

He quirked an eyebrow at her from what she said.

(From someone? I don't know anyone else....unless..)Trowa pondered.

"Go outside in two minutes and you'll see.."Cathrine gave a small wink

and then journeyed out of the mansion.

At the sound of a door closing, Duo came inside and looked around

momentarily before frowning.

"Nothing? Nothing at all? That was short, what did she

say?"Duo blabbed out what he was thinking.

Trowa didn't answer his questions but stared at the clock a minute

longer before going out of the door also. Duo was dumbfounded but

quickly ran for the nearest window and stared outside, by that time

the others made their way and saw only Duo there spying on his

friend.

"Duo..we should respect Trowa's privacy,"Quatre told him.

"Yeah, yeah. I know but hey! It's the Silencer after all.

Ooh, hey what's that?"Duo carefully inspected what was going on before

his eyes.

At the sound of Duo's interested voice, the others slowly approached

him and joined Duo at his spying game.

~.~Outside~.~

Trowa stepped out of the doorway and into darkness. The stars were out

and brightly shining with the moon comfortably gazing down at them all.

His dark green eyes surveyed the area and he spotted a figure about fifty

yards away from him with its back turned towards him. Curious he

stealthily strolled on over to it.

Getting closer, he noticed that the foreigner was gazing up at the moon

and the stars. And once he reached a certain range, he observed the

person and now figured out it was girl about a year younger than him.

(...so familiar..)Trowa noted.

"The moon..."the teenager murmered lovingly and then whirled around

and faced him.

Blue crystalline eyes facing dark green orbs. Her eyes sparkled

happiness and content at seeing him and the hood on her head fell

and long golden hair tumbled out. Her hairstyle was down and reached

all the way to the concrete. She smiled at him in greeting and then

her right hand pointed upwards to the sky.

"Remember?"the girl stated/questioned.

*Flashback*

"I've never seen the moon or the stars before...well I've seen

stars but never the moon. I live in a Colony and well, there is no

moon to look forward to at night. Someday, I'd like to see

it,"Usagi revealed.

"Maybe you will, you just have to try is all,"Nanashi uttered.

"Yes, and maybe you'll come with me to watch it,"Usagi softly

smiled.

He didn't smile back but his green eyes flashed happiness for

a brief moment.

*End of Flashback*

"Usagi.."Trowa murmered out her name.

"Nanashi.."Usagi stepped closer to her friend.

"Trowa. Trowa Barton.."Trowa told her.

"So that's your real name, now?"Usagi asked him.

"No, it isn't...just a name I took up,"Trowa shook his head.

"Mmm..well at least it's something from your past,"Usagi said and

stared up at the sky once more.

"How'd you find me?"Trowa asked her.

"That day in the rain..I saw you and a redheaded girl talking out

there and you went with her somewhere. After awhile, I saw her

again but you weren't with her. She told me that you're her

brother. Three days later, well..here I am,"Usagi shrugged and then

bowed her head.

Trowa grew a bit worried when she turned her face away from him and

lent out her hand and tipped her head up to meet his eyes but she

turned away from him. He blinked.

"To tell you the truth, Na-Trowa...I'm relieved to find out that

she is your sister.."Usagi's voice lowered to a mere whisper.

He didn't say anything.

"...because.."Usagi sighed and then faced him with a strained smile.

Trowa drew closer to her and held her in his arms, she buried her head

to his chest and the two stayed that way. No words needed to be said

because deep in each other's heart they already knew what one felt for

the other. Love.

~.~In the Mansion~.~

"Hey! Silencer is actually hugging a gal!"Duo shouted.

Shaking his head, Duo continued to watch.

"Never knew he had it in him..."Duo mumbled with a grin on his face.

"Quit spying, Maxwell!"Wufei berated him.

"You're watching too Wu-man,"Duo shot back, as he faced his comrade

who was right next to him.

Smirking, Duo went back to observing the two hugging couple right outside.

Quatre shook his head and sighed. Heero, already disappeared awhile

ago and left Quatre to try and prevent his two partners from doing something

unthinkable, namely having Wufei try to chop Duo up into pieces.

(When will they learn..)Quatre sighed.

~.~Back Outside~.~

"So, does this mean you're coming back home?"Usagi asked Trowa as she

stared up at him.

"Back home?"Trowa mimicked.

"Yes, back home. It's your place too, you know?"Usagi smiled.

A few seconds later, Trowa still didn't respond to her question.

"Nana...Trowa? Well?"Usagi grew a bit anxious to what his response would

be.

"Hn."Trowa grunted.

"That a yes or no?"Usagi questioned with a slight pout.

Trowa gazed down at Usagi and she stopped pouting. He drew her closer

to him and leaned down to meet her lips.

(Guess that means yes..)Usagi said to herself and kissed back with

the same amount of passion that he gave her.

The End....
