The year is AC 204. After the war, the Gundam Pilots finally settled down away from each other. Trowa and Wufei lived together in an apartment, Wufei needing a vacation from his wife and child, and the rest of the pilots married. Heero and Relena even had a baby boy. Here is where it all starts.

Heero and Relena

They sat down in the kitchen. Their unusually strong 5-year old son was always a happy child. His name was Damon and he was playing with his toy ball when the computer flashed. Normally it wouldn't have been so weird but the war was over. What did Doctor J want? Wait a minute, how was he alive! He was on Libra when it exploded, right? Just can't get rid of those darn professors.

"This is Heero speaking. What's the problem Doctor J?"

"A new threat has arose. The Neo Lion Revolution plans to start terrorist attacks," he spoke. "You must attack their base soon, Heero." "And start another war! This is not ideal. There are too many things at stake! If you want them to defend the colonies that's different! But if we're the first to attack we'll become the terroists! Can't you see such a simple thing," Relena yelled. Surprised at Relena's outburst, Doctor J approved the idea and broke the link.

"AAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRG!!!!!" Heero yelled as he plunged his fist through 11 concrete blocks to let off steam. "Not another war. Darn it, didn't we learn from the first!" he thought. "YYYYYYYAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!

Duo and Hilde

They had received a similar message from Duo's mentor. "Duo, please let me fight!" Hilde pleaded. "Please!"

"HILDE! I WON'T!" Duo screamed. Hilde, taken aback sunk into her chair with a face in her hands. He wouldn't lose her to some stupid war. After all, he was Shinigami. He knew more about death than any othe person alive, except maybe the other Gundam pilots.

"I'm- I'm sorry. I just don't want to lose you like that. Wars are dangerous. Even I, Shinigami, will be considering staying here. I promise I'll come back if I go."

"Duo, I understand, but I want to help. When I married you I promised to stick to you till death, and to help you in all areas possible. I will NOT stay at home sitting on my butt waiting. Okay?" Duo sighed, marveling at her ferocity.

"Hilde, you are one stubborn woman. But I give up, you can fight," Duo said, nervously caressing his braid.

"Yes! Thank you! thank you!" she exclaimed as she hopped around like a young girl who just got her parents to take her to Disneyland. "Somehow I think I'll regret this," Duo whispered. And he realized it wasn't about Hilde going. It was about him.
