The
6th Pilot
Part
2 They meet
It's been a week since we last saw neither hide nor hair of that other
pilot.
"Hey guys! Check it
out!" Duo's voice filled the
house. I walked over to where he
was seated in front of the TV.
(TV voice)
"Today, one of the OZ fleets has captured one of the Rebel Gundam
Pilots. We have gotten word that
it's the new Gundam that showed up just last month, 06."
*Shows pictures of the pilot, and 'her' Gundam*
The TV was still going on about what the girl has done.
I was still in shock. She
looks like she's in bad shape. Her long blonde hair covered most of her
injuries but from what I could tell, her face has cuts all over her ivory
colored skin. There's a deep gash
on her left arm, and her clothes all ripped.
Her purple tank top is barely purple anymore; it's covered in blood. Her blue jeans ripped on the legs, blood coming out of the
open cuts.
"Oh my Gods! It's a
girl!" Duo's mouth just dropped
open.
"Hn. Show's how weak
that women is by getting caught by the enemy."
Wufei replied in a monotone voice.
"She doesn't look like she's in good shape."
Trowa's voice was quite, but everyone in the room heard him.
"Well looks like we'll be doing our missions alone, again." Everyone turned to Duo to ask what he was talking about.
He sounded a little depressed, which caught my attention.
"Duo, what are you talking about?
We've never met her. And
you're upset because she was captured?"
I wanted to know what was going through his mind.
'Did he know her? What
did he mean we'll be doing our missions alones?
We always did.'
"Well… yeah." I saw
Quatre walk in. Duo was finished
explaining what he meant. "I
mean, if you guys were paying attention…
the News reporter said that she blew up a lot of bases.
And most of them, we were at the same day, same time.
So in reality, she was helping us out, even if she doesn't know it.
So couldn't we at least return the favor?"
"What favor?" What's
he talking about. She never did
anything for us.
"Do I need to spell it out for you, Heero?
We can't leave a still intact Gundam (1), or her in there hands.
And besides… I kind of owe
her, for something."
I looked at everyone and the all had their heads lowered.
"You owe her what? What
did she do to you guys anyway?"
"Duo's got a point. We
can't leave her Gundam in their hands. Or
her for that matter." I could
tell Trowa was changing the subject. I
just shrugged it off.
"Fine. I'll go and blow
up the Gundam and kill the girl."
"That's not what Duo had in mind Heero."
Quatre stated.
"Then what do you want?"
"How about, we save her, and do something with her Gundam." Quatre said.
"Yes! Thank you, Quatre." 'Duo
what's going on?'
"Fine. But I'm going,
alone."
"You're going to need some help.
Placing explosives and breaking in.
At least let me come with you." That's
the first time I heard Wufei volunteer to help me out on a mission.
I grunted, and nodded my head in agreement.
'Why is everyone turning against me?
Even Wufei is on her side! A
women!'
----***----
KABOOM! *Sirens going off*
"Come on Wufei! Hurry up!" He
was placing a small explosive on the prison lock.
I was watching the OZ officers run down the side hall. They were to preoccupied and didn't even notice us. 'And
they wonder why they're losing the war.'
Bang! A tiny explosion
attached to the cell door's lock went off, and the cell opened.
I opened the door and saw a small body sitting on the ground, in the
corner of the cell. Her head
hanging low. Her blonde hair
covered her face. When she heard
the door open she jumped to her feet. Her
face pale, and bruised. It looks
like she's gotten new cuts from that last time I saw her on the monitor.
"Wufei? Is that you? What are you doing here?!"
She cried out.
"I thought I'd repay the favor."
"What favor? You mean back
at the school? I told you it was
just a reflex."
"Come on you two. Before
they catch on to what's going on." I
was very confused. But I'm sure
I'll find out later, if there was a later.
She stared at me, her face asking me who I am, with her lips not even
moving. Wufei saw this, and just
said "A friend of mine."
She nodded. "Fine, but I
need to get something first."
"We have a carrier waiting. But
getting to it isn't going to be easy. So
we're going to get your Gundam in and get out"
"You know about that?!" She replied. "I guess I made it in the
news…" She winced in pain when she tried to walk.
But didn't make a sound, the only sound I heard from her was the
popping of the bone.
I stared at her, trying to figure out what to do.
She saw me staring and said "Its no biggie, just a broken leg.
I'll live." She tried to
walk again and stopped dead in her tracks, almost falling but she put her hand
to the wall for support. She tried
to hide the pain on her face but failed.
I went over to her and slide my left hand around her waist, and grabbed
her right arm and put it around my neck, so she would have a little more
support. "Come on, lets go." 'I want to get this mission over and done with.' I
thought to myself.
When we got to the hanger there was little security.
Most of them were out trying to figure out what's happening.
Wufei took out the guards and headed for the girls Gundam.
"Hey! What do you think
your doing?!" She yelled in my
ear.
"Getting your Gundam in the carrier."
"No one but me pilots my Gundam!"
"Either he does, or we leave it here."
She turned around in my arms to look at me.
"You wouldn't." I kept
silent and just looked at her. "You would…
Fine!" She turned back to Wufei, "but if you scratch the paint…"
"He won't, now come on." She
hobbled along side of me, trying to keep up as we headed for the carrier.
She watched Wufei climb into her Gundam and walk it over inside the
carrier and lay it down. She
grunted as he got out of it. I
walked her to a seat, and she sat down and buckled herself in.
I walked over to the cockpit, and started the engine, as Wufei was
checking for any Leo's that might get in the way.
Seeing none, and gave an 'OK' sign and we took off into the air, on
our way back to Quatre's house.
I walked back to where the girl was and threw her the first-aide kit.
"I told you I'm fine."
"Look in a mirror." I
told her in a cold voice. "Whatever, do as you
like." And with that I turned
around and walked back to the cockpit. "Hey
Wufei, What's her name anyways?"
He shrugged. "Never
asked."
----***----
We landed the carrier near Quatre's house in the woods. (2) I walked into the back of the carrier were
I left the girl, and found her sleeping. I
nudged her leg with my foot; I made sure it wasn't her broken one.
She snapped awake. "Where here."
"Where's here?"
I picked her up, to help support her again.
I opened the door with my free hand, and she was in awe of her
surroundings. "Nice place. Who's is it?"
"Its mine." She jumped
as Quatre came out of the trees and into the clearing.
"Nice to meet you again."
"Quatre Winner."
He nodded. "I never did
catch your name."
"Oh… It's…" She stopped to look at Duo and Trowa coming out of
trees as well. "What is this? A party?"
Duo laughed. "Not
exactly." Duo looked at me then
back at her. "What happened to you
anyways?"
"Long story." She replied as we were getting down the stairs.
"At least you didn't kill her, Heero."
"Heero? Oh that's
you?"
"Yes, and you are?"
"Oh right! I'm Jennifer
Wagner. But you can call me Jen."
"She has a name!" Duo
yelled out.
"What did you mean, not kill me?"
'What you just now caught on Jen?'
She looks really confused on what's going on.
I don't blame her.
"So what happened to you?" Quatre
asked a little worry in his voice. She
pushed me aside, and stood against a tree.
"They wanted answers. One's
I couldn't give them."
"Like what?" Trowa
asked.
"Like who the other pilots are. I
kept telling them I didn't know, but they didn't believe me. They kept hitting me until their fists hurt."
"You don't know who the other pilots are?"
Duo asked a little surprised.
She shook her head. "Nope."
We all looked at each other. "What?"
"Nothing… You need to
clean up and rest." I responded.
"Wait! You know something,
what? You know the pilots?"
"You could say that." Duo
turned around and started heading back to the house.
"Duo! ARG!!
Men… I hate them!" She
tried to walk again, she was a little more successful this time, Trowa walked
over to her, and helps to support her.
"We're not all bad." She
looked at him. I followed behind
them.
"Thanks."
"We should be thanking you."
She stopped in her tracts, I almost ran into them.
"What for?" He turned to
her in surprise. "You mean
at the school?" Quatre, Duo, and
Wufei all heard them talking about what happened.
"Yes, Trowa's right, we should be thanking you."
Quatre told her.
She sighed. "I told you
guys once, and I'll say it again… It
… was… a… reflex!"
"Yea, yea. Still… As much as I'd hate to admit it, you did get us out of the
way of the blast." Duo replied.
If I looked confused before, I'm sure I looked really confused now.
"Men, and their egos!" She
pushed away from Trowa and slumped against a tree.
Trowa turned around and stared at me.
I know it looked like that I didn't care, but Trowa read right through
my mask, and motion for me to follow.
(This part is not for the light hearted!
WARNING: Trowa talks, I mean
he tells a whole story!)
I followed Trowa, and off in the distance I could hear Jen yelling at
them to let her go, and that she didn't need any help.
"About a month ago, we had a mission, Duo, Quatre, Wufei and I.
You were off on your mission. We
were sent on an infiltration mission, in a nearby school.
Little did we know it was a setup for the Gundam Pilots. That's when we
first meet her. She was already a
student in the class before we got there."
Trowa explained.
"That's how she knew your names.
Then why didn't you know hers?"
"Never had the chance." He
took a breath and started again "I was walking to the front office to get the
last of the files, when I saw her sitting at the computer downloading something
onto a disk. She used the excuse
that she was an office aide. When
she got up, and left, I snuck in and downloaded the files we needed and headed to
meet the guys so we could leave.
"We all met up in the girls dorm wing.
It was right near the parking lot. She
came running out of her dorm, and told us to get down. She jumped on all of us and pushed us to the ground, to
shield us from the blast. She saved
our lives, but not with hurting herself very badly.
When the smoke cleared she was taken to the hospital.
Quatre went to go and thank her, but she wasn't anywhere to be found.
"Quatre did a little searching and found out that she was the one that
set the bombs." And with that
said Trowa become silent once again.
"I see. So saving her life
was just a pay back." Trowa nodded.
Off in the distance I could hear Jen yelling, saying something like
"Leave me alone! I'm fine damnit!"
"I guess we better get back before she kills them all."
I said. "Also, should we tell her who we are?"
Trowa stopped and turned around to look at me.
"Maybe we should. But
after she gets better." I nodded
in agreement.
----***----
"Onna! That does it!" Wufei's scream could be heard throughout the house.
I walked into the living room to see what was happening.
It was a mess.
"Hn." Jen didn't sound
very happy. Her wounds were healing
nicely, and her broken leg, was down to a limp.
She stopped using her crutches a few days ago.
Wufei took out his sword, and brought it to Jen's head. "What's
going on…? I was trying to sleep!"
Duo came into the large living room, and saw Wufei with his sword to
Jen's head.
"Not so weak am I?! Aw…
what's the matter Wufei can't stand getting beat up by a girl so you bring
out your sword?!" Jen didn't
even flinch when Wufei moved to sword closer to her chest.
Wufei was about ready to hurt her, when Quatre walked in.
"Would someone mind telling me what happened?
WUFEI! Put that sword down
now!"
Jen turned to Quatre and said "Sorry about the mess Quatre, I'll
clean it up."
Wufei put his sword anyway so as not get the others angry with him.
"Err… I'll replace the
lamp Quatre."
"That's all good, but I would still like to know what's
happened."
"Well I came walking in the room and Wufei
muttered something about me being a weak women.
So I responded. I guess it
wasn't in the best way."
"You will pay for the punch onna!" (Woman)
"Uuu… Wuffer got beat up
by a little girl!" Not
again my mind cried out as I saw Jen and Wufei get red with anger.
"You little…" Jen and Wufei both called out as they jumped on Duo,
and started punching.
"Arg!" Was his only word
before he hit the floor with a thud.
"I'm no LITTLE girl!" Jen
yelled out and got off Duo.
Wufei and Jen both got off Duo. Duo
started walking back to his room when he muttered something. I couldn't hear it, and Wufei, Trowa, or Quatre didn't
hear it, but Jen heard it. Her head
popped up and she spun around to see Duo's retreating form.
"Why you little…" Jen was running after Duo, but was caught in
Trowa's arms.
"We need him alive."
"So? Let me at him! Put me down!"
"Big words for someone who's out numbered." I replied.
"Sorry. Please!!! I swear I'll
be good." And she mumbled "For now…"
Trowa sighed. "Not till
you promise."
Jen struggled a little while longer till she was getting to tired.
"Fine, he can live."
Trowa seemed satisfied with that, and let her go.
"You still going to kill them?" (Wufei and Duo remember!)
"Yup."
"Why? I mean I know what
they said and did, but that's just their usually selves" Quatre got a death
glare from Wufei. "I'm just
stating the facts!"
"You guys don't get it, just… leave me alone, and I'll leave you
alone." It sounded like a threat to me, and the others notice it too. I
gave them a look and they nodded their
heads. (Are they good or what?
Reading each other's mines like that.)
"Jen hold up!" Quatre called out.
"Look, we have to tell you something.
And this little event, that just happened, tells me that I have tell you before
you get hurt even more." Jen was
looking at Quatre. 'He's
the best one to tell her.' I told myself.
"You said that you don't know the other Gundam Pilots, right?" Jen nodded. "Ok,
well look. There's no easy way to
put this, so I'll come right out and say it."
Quatre looked at me, he looked… afraid.
I nodded my head telling him to go on.
Jen looked at me then at Quatre.
"What's up?" Jen looked really puzzled.
"We are the other pilots. Heero,
Duo, Trowa, Wufei, and me." Jen's eyes grew wide with shock.
It looked like she was going to fall over. Quatre was getting nervous "Jen?
Jen! You ok?"
"YOUR WHAT?!" She
screamed out. "ERRR!!!
ARRGGG!!! You've got to be
kidding me!"
Quatre took his hands away from his ears.
"We would have told you sooner, but your injuries…" Jen ran out of
the room, and to her room, and slammed the door. "She took that well."
----***----
Yea… Yea… I
know, Goofy ending, but what do you think?
Part 3 will come out as soon as this writer's block ends!
Well I guess you like it, or you wouldn't have read this far J
Thanks to everyone who commented! I'll list their names in the next Part,
enjoy! Adios amigos! (Goodbye in Spanish)

1.)
Remember all the Gundam's that ended up in OZ's hands, one way or
another, were never whole. They
were always blown or beaten up, or something.
2.)
Ok, I noticed I said on the beach too, But let me make myself more clear.
His house is near the beach, in the woods. Have you ever seen those really big houses, which are
surrounded by a forest and have a great view of the ocean? Think of the Sank Kingdom, something like that.
R/R!!!!
