Chapter 6 - Family Reunion
"Did you see that?!?" Usagi cried, happiness in her eyes. "That girl didn't even hit him!!" She cried as she saw the a woman with curly reddish-colored hair and a clown with a mask covering half of his face bow slightly.
"That clown down there is Trowa." Quatre explained, seeing his good friend's performance.
"Really? When do I get to meet him?" Usagi asked.
"After the show we'll go talk to him all right?" Quatre asked.
"Ok." Usagi said, giving him a V and a smile.

'There's Quatre,' Trowa thought, looking into the crowd. 'That girl with him must be the princess.' He thought seeing the young girl with a long blond braid hanging down her back.
"What are you looking at Trowa?" Katherine asked as she approached him from behind.
"Just the crowd. It's a full house tonight." He said quietly.
"I know, the whole place sold out. Isn't this the colony your friend runs?" Katherine asked. She looked over and Trowa was gone. "Trowa?" She asked, seeing that her companion was gone.
****
"That was a great show!!" Usagi cried as they were leaving the tent.
"Quatre." A man's voice said behind them. They both turned to see a man in the shadows, his face covered.
"Trowa?" He asked, taking Usagi's hand. He walked into the shadows, feeling Usagi's grip tightening.
"Yeah," The reply came. When they were away from the rest of the exiting crowd, Trowa spoke. "So this is the princess huh?"
"Yeah. Usagi, this is Trowa Barton. Trowa, this is Princess Usagi." He said introducing the two.
"It's nice to meet you Mr. Barton." Usagi said, putting out her hand. He didn't return the gesture, only looked down at her hand.
"Call me Trowa." He instructed.
"Trowa, are you going to go downtown with us? I'm expecting Duo and Wufei to be at my office when we return." Quatre explained.
"Lets go." Trowa said, following the couple to a waiting limo. Trowa climbed in last, sitting across from Quatre and Usagi, his arms crossed over his chest.
"Have you heard from Heero recently?" Quatre asked, breaking the silence. Trowa shook his head, his hair falling over his eyes.
"I haven't heard from him since the Barton Foundation was destroyed." Trowa explained.
"The Barton Foundation?" Usagi asked. "Isn't your last name Barton?"
"I have no name." Trowa said, not looking up.
"How can you not have a name?" Usagi asked. "Everyone has a name!" He didn't answer.
"Master Quatre, you have a telephone call." The driver said, the dark window sliding down.
"Thanks," Quatre said, picking up the phone. "Duo?" Usagi heard him say as he picked up the phone. "Where are you?" He asked.
"I'm here, in your office right now. Guess what? Wufei and Heero are here too." Duo said over the phone.
"Heero's there?" Quatre asked.
"Yeah, we're all here. Where are you?" Duo asked.
"We're on our way there right now, with Trowa." Quatre explained.
"All right, I guess we'll see you in a few." Duo said, hanging up the phone.
"That was Duo," Quatre said as he hung up the phone. "He said Wufei and Heero are there right now."
"I thought you couldn't get a hold of him." Usagi said.
"I couldn't find him. Oh well, maybe one of the guys managed to find him." Quatre said calmly.
****
Quatre opened the door, letting Usagi walk past him into the room. She stopped as she gazed at the people in front of her. She had been holding a bag she'd left in the car, which she dropped, scattering its contents all over the floor.
"I don't believe it…" She said in a whisper as she walked into the room. Everyone was staring at her like she was crazy.
"Umm… Usagi?" Quatre asked uncertainly.
"It's you!" She said, a smile spreading across her lips. She began to run, throwing her arms around Heero's neck. "I've finally found you!!" She cried, tears streaming down her face.
"Found him?" Duo asked. "What's goin on?" He asked, scratching his head. "Umm… would you mind explaining?" Duo asked, getting her attention. She turned around, facing the rest of them, a slight blush on her cheeks.
"I'm sorry…" She said, bowing slightly. "I'm Tsukino Usagi. This is… my brother…" She said, smiling warmly at her older brother.
"You're brother?!?!" Quatre and Duo shout as one.
"Umm… yeah…" Usagi said, a sweatdrop appearing on her forehead. "Did I mention he was a gundam pilot before?" She asked innocently.
"You left that little it out." Quatre said, a look of shock on his face.
"Who would have thought soldier boy over there had a sister." Duo said mockingly. 'She's hot too,' He thought. 'Maybe I'll woo her with my charm.' He thought, his normal smirk on his lips.
"Where have you been?" Heero asked, looking down at his little sister.
"I've been on Earth, in Tokyo," She said smiling. "I was hiding from father, that's why I changed my name to Tsukino."
"What does father want with you?" Heero asked, ignoring the snickers he was getting from Duo.
"I don't know. He only said that if I didn't fight, he'd find you and kill you." Usagi said seriously.
"I'll kill that bastard…" Heero muttered, his prussian blue eyes going ice cold.
