%()&*@)(#& (Warning: Totally Minako/Quatre fluffy goodness)
Darkness filled the small area as a figure slumped in a corner by herself. She
held her knees tightly to her chest and held her breath as footsteps made
their way closer to the door. The light of the moon glowed softly into the
room, giving it little light from the imposing darkness. A soft whimper
escaped her lips as the door creaked open, causing a blinding light to pour
into the room and envelope her. She buried her face in her knees to hide
from the bright light and heard a grunt from one of the figures. Something
hard hit the ground, a noise of pain echoed off the walls, as the door was
slammed shut once more.

Mina slowly lifted her head as she looked over to the spot where the noise
had come from. A hoarse gasp escaped her lips as she looked down at the
fallen figure of Quatre. Her legs moved on their own and she bit her lip to
keep herself from crying. Her hand reached out absently and ruffled his
light hair hesitantly before he suddenly stirred.

"Quatre?" she asked in a hushed voice as she moved closer to him. He slowly
lifted his head to look at her and Mina felt her eyes swell with tears at the
sight of him. She saw his arms wobble beneath him, but she caught him just
before he fell to the floor.

"Ms. Aino…thank you." He said in a tired voice as he slumped against her.
Mina fell back onto her butt from the pressure, but she wrapped one arm
tightly around his lower chest as his head rested on her shoulder. Her other
hand slowly worked its way along the outlines of his face. Her fingers
dabbed at the cuts along his face and he winced in his sleep at the contact.
Her other arm slowly worked its way under him and slowly leaned her head
against his as her eyes slowly rolled into an endless sleep.


A slight struggle woke Mina from her sleep as her eyes opened slowly. She
turned her head as it brushed against something and was met by startled light
blue eyes. She pulled back as her arms slipped away from the startled boy
and she spotted his flushed cheeks. She giggled slightly, but immediately
stopped as she saw the hardened blood that had dried upon his face. She
slowly edged towards him as she tore material from her blouse and wet it with
her spit. Quatre blushed even further when he saw her tongue and swallowed
deeply within his throat.

"M…Ms. Aino." He said in a quivering voice as her eyes pierced into his. Her
small frame moved closer to him and he slowly backed away from her the best
he could, but he soon met a dead end. His eyes traveled down to see her lips
were parted slightly and the buttons of her blouse-hung open. She
continued to pursue him until she was right in front of him, holding the
piece of cloth in front of her. She reached out and gently wiped it along
the side of his face, rubbing gently as she cleaned the blood that stained
his cheek.

"What happened Mr. Winner?" she asked in a crystal clear voice as she
continued her ministrations. Quatre shook slightly at the memory and looked
into her eyes and felt his whole being soften. Her blue eyes held a look of
concern and trust as she gazed at him for what seemed like hours.

"All they wanted to know was what my father was planning for this big
military project he was participating in." he said as he turned his head to
the side, but a gentle hand guided him back. The golden haired beauty simply
smiled at him and slowly continued to remove the filthy blood.

"You can call me Mina, Ms. Aino makes me feel old." She said with slight
laughter in her voice. Quatre couldn't help but smile at her attempted humor
and held his hand up for her to shake.

"You can call me Quatre." He said politely. Mina ignored his hand and leaned
forward as she kissed his cheek gently. Quatre blushed as she kissed him so
close to his lips, but said nothing as she pulled away. Her soft laughter
filled his ears as she saw his blush and he reveled within it once he heard
it. Their moment was broken as the door swung open and the same man with
glasses walked into the room. His eyes lowered to Mina and an eerie smirk
played across his face. He slowly walked over to her and lowered down to her
level, but she spit straight in his face as he dared to reach for her.
Quatre gritted his teeth and moved to intercept the man from Mina, but some
of the bodyguards grabbed him from all sides. The dark man grabbed something
from his pocket and slowly released a glimmering blade from its confinement.
Mina gasped as she saw this and slowly backed away as he neared her.

"Mina!" Quatre shouted as he struggled against the men. Mina looked over at
him with prideful eyes, but he could see the fear within their depths.
%)(@&$@)( (Alert: Ami/Wufei fluffiness ahead, nothing major, but there is
some kawaiiness)
Ami stared at the Chinese man as he cursed under his breath a thousand times.
She looked behind herself in panic as large tanks and cars began to gather
at the gates.

"What are we going to do?" she asked in a hesitant voice as they moved
towards them. She wanted to hop on the bike and ride away from this place,
but she couldn't find it in her heart to leave her mother. She turned back
to the young man and saw that he was glaring at her. A blush crept to her
cheeks and she lowered her eyes to the ground in defeat.

"Weak onna." He murmured under his breath as he hurriedly got onto his bike.
He looked at the small Asian girl and scowled at her as she remained where
she was.

"What?" she asked in an innocent tone. Her eyes looked at him blankly and he
gritted his teeth to hold in an insult.

"Get on. We are leaving. They will surely spot us soon." He said as he held
out his hand to her. She stared down at it for a moment before looking back
at the base.

"What about my mother?" she asked in a pained voice. She turned her
attention back to him and tears filled her ocean blue eyes. Wufei groaned as
he saw the small crystalline drops glitter. He pulled himself from the bike
and gently placed a hand on her shoulder.

"Your mother will be alright. As long as you are alive and well, they will
not harm her." He said in a slightly irritated tone, but was trying to be
gentle. Ami smiled in spite of herself and set her hand on his own. His
black eyes widened slightly in surprise and he pulled back, but Ami slowly
slid her hands around his waist. He stared down at the soft head of blue
hair for a moment, taking in the shininess of it as it swayed softly. He
finally willed himself to pull her away from him and he looked at her light
glowing face for a moment. An air of innocence flowed around her and his
hand moved on its own as he slowly moved the tip of her glasses down the
bridge of her nose.

Ami held her breath as she watched his pale hand travel down her cheek. The
simple touch made her shiver and she slowly traced her fingers over his. A
rustling was suddenly heard from behind her and she gasped as Wufei spun her
around and crushed her to him. An explosion erupted from the bushes and his
body jerked against hers as a strangled moan escaped his pursed lips. Her
body stiffened in shock and she saw the Doberman running towards the area as
a man's strangled cry rang through the area. She heard the struggling from
afar from the man and beast and wanted desperately to stop them.

"Come!" Wufei said as he jerked her away from the battle. She tripped over
her feet as he practically dragged her to the metallic bike and pulled her on
with him. The roar of the engines roared through her and she wrapped her
arms tightly around his waist as the bike kicked into life. She suddenly
felt his muscles tighten and something wet slowly leaked onto her arm.


The wind whipped past them as they continued their journey through the
wilderness. The trucks had long since lost them as they continued to travel.
Ami squeezed her eyes tightly as the wind threatened to take her glasses.
She nuzzled her head into Wufei's back and gripped his jacket as an icy
breeze surrounded her. She felt her heart wrench within her chest as she
felt his muscles tighten once more as she brushed over a swollen spot. A
slight smile made its way to her lips as she nuzzled his back a little more
to feel his muscles, but blushed hotly as she realized what she was doing.
Her embarrassment was cut short as the bike pulled to a stop and she pulled
away as her eyes set upon a small cabin in front of them. She stared at it,
but soon fell a bit as Wufei removed himself from the bike. His hand
remained within his jacked, grasping at his side.

"Get inside onna, I don't have all day." He mumbled as he looked at her. His
ivory skin was much paler and his eyes held a look of fatigue.

"The name is Ami, and if you don't like it you may call me Dr. Mizuno." She
stated simply as she slowly walked to the door. She felt the man's eyes on
her back the whole while and a smile made its way to her lips only for a
short second. She heard his footsteps behind her and he slowly walked to the
front door as the chime of keys banging together was heard. She turned her
head to look at him, but her eyes locked with his in a stare.

"Wufei." Was all he said as he walked into the cabin first. Ami just smiled
happily and slowly walked into the cabin, but gasped as she saw a startling
sight that made her heart ache.
%()&@)($&@0 (Incoming: Serious Usagi/Duo scenes, you have been warned)
The slow wind blew as it hissed unspoken words into Duo's ears as he held the
gun in his trembling hand. Usagi sat in front of him, looking at the gun
that was only inches from her head. Her eyes were swelled with tears and she
looked accusingly at Duo. The sun cast a small halo upon her hair and she
looked like something from heaven right at that moment in time. Duo cursed
softly as he dropped the gun to the ground and took her face into his hands.
He hushed her softly as his thumbs gently dried the tears from her eyes. A
small gasp came from Usagi and she shook her head as she broke Duo's hold and
buried her face in his chest. He looked down at the small girl solemnly and
placed his hands on her shoulders lightly. Sobs racked her body and she
gripped his jacket as if pleading with him to hold her.

"Why?" she whispered in a hoarse voice as her head remained on his chest.

"I have my reasons little angel, but they must remain with me. I could not
do what I was asked, so be thankful for my soft heart." He said in a slightly
icy tone. Usagi slowly averted her eyes to his and loosened her grip upon
him slightly as she looked upon his face. She felt a smile lighten upon her
face and she touched his tough cheek affectionately.

"So I finally see the real you." She said as she pulled away from him. He
grinned down at her as he took her hand into his and slowly intertwined his
fingers with hers.

"Is that good or bad?" he asked as he looked into her eyes. She felt a
shiver race through her spine and slipped her fingers away from his as she
backed away. She felt her heart race as he reached for his gun, but she ran
forward and struck him in the side. A loud grunt came from him and he
crashed to the ground as dust flew around him. She scrambled as she worked
the gun into her fingers and held it. The very muscles in her arms refused
to stay still as her aim shook terribly as she clasped the gun tightly.

"Stay back." She whispered as she saw the evil glint in his eye. He slowly
rose to his feet with such cat like grace and slowly dusted off his arms
casually. He raised his eyebrow in her direction and slowly walked up to her
until the gun was pressed fully against his chest. He stared into her eyes
and a grin came to his face as his eyes became merry once more.

"You should see your face right now!" he said as he grabbed her arm. Usagi
let tears fall from her eyes once more as she saw the old Duo and dropped the
gun to the ground. She wrapped her arms around his waist and held him
tightly as though she would not lose him again. She stood there for a long
while as her fingers played with the end of his braid softly. She felt him
lean forward and nuzzle the side of her face for a moment before he pulled
away quickly. She raised her head and her brows drew together as she saw
that his face was stony and pale.

"Duo?" she questioned as she looked into his face. His hand hastily grabbed
her arms and dragged her along the way back to the bike. Fear raced through
her nerves as she stared at the shining metal of the bike and tried to break
his grasp, but it was like metal.

"Maxwell, bring the girl to me. She is my responsibility now. We had a deal."
Came a deep voice from the shadows. Usagi gasped as she turned to see a tall
man standing outside a large limo and saw that he was frowning.

"That's Rei's father." She whispered to herself. She suddenly caught the
meaning of his words and looked up at Duo with betrayal. He met her eyes and
she felt her body go rigid at the sympathy and plea of forgiveness in his
eyes. She could only smile through her tears and nod to him, but he soon
grabbed her from behind and held her close.

"You don't think I am going to let you go that easily do you?" he whispered
into her ear as her heart leapt for joy.

"Duo." She whispered back as she saw his smile as bright as day. His cobalt
eyes gleamed as he gazed at her and slowly turned up to face the raven-haired
man.

"The deal is off, I will not hurt her nor will I hand her over to you. Your
daughter left you, not because of the influence of this girl." He said
defiantly as he slowly drew Usagi towards the bike. They both heard the man
curse and he walked forward to stop them.

"She is the reason for my daughter's disappearance and I will have my
vengeance, with you there to protect her or not." He said as he reached into
his pocket. Duo sneered as he started the bike and roared off into the
street as gun shots were heard.


Usagi slowly looked out her window as she looked at the pale moon in the sky.
Her fingers played with the strands of her hair lazily and her blue eyes
seemed to glow with despair.

"Duo. I hope we get through this together, I don't know what it is about you
because the longer I am away from you my heart aches."
@(#@)(&$()@&# (Warning: Major Rei/Heero coupling here, you have been warned)
Voices echoed around a figure as the darkness of sleep lulled her. Every
muscle in her body ached and her head felt like it would split at any second.
Her eyes forced themselves open and light blinded her from above. Rei
squinted her eyes shut and tiredly pushed herself into a sitting position.
Her eyes scanned the room and she gasped as she saw that her clothes had been
removed and replaced with a Chinese style dress. She lay chained by a type
of throne like chair and many men stood around her in awe. She slowly stood
and sneered at them, but their laughter echoed around her. Everything became
hushed as a larger figure entered the room and Rei gasped as his icy gray
eyes met hers.

"Kunzite." She whispered as she looked at him. The drug lord smirked at her
and slowly made his way over to her. He reached out and grasped her chin,
but she spit into his face. He reeled back slightly, but licked the liquid
as it ran down his cheek.

"Agent Rei." He said in an amused tone as he looked at her. She growled deep
in her throat and glared up at him, but he let out an annoyed chuckle.

"You insult me young one." He said mockingly. He threw himself into the
chair and pulled the chains so that Rei fell into his lap. She struggled
against him, but it did nothing to aid her in any way. He wrapped his arm
around her waist casually and pinned her against his chest. The doors to the
front room opened and more men in uniforms walked into the room as they
carried a prone figure. Blood dripped from the figure and onto the
snow-white carpet below. Rei felt her chest tighten as she noticed the spiky
brown hair of the young man. She struggled to look over her shoulder, but
her face was mashed in between Kunzite's shoulder.

"Sir, we have brought the prisoner as you requested." One of them said as
they dropped him to the floor. A grunt escaped the figure and he drew
himself to his knees painfully. He raised his Prussian eyes to the chair and
his icy orbs flashed dangerously.

"I see you have chosen another little toy, eh my boy? A fine one, with a
fiery soul and the beauty of fire. Someone with fire that can melt a heart
of ice, interesting." He said as he drew Rei closer to him. Heero gritted
his teeth and wiped the blood from his mouth as he rose to his feet. His
eyes locked with Rei's and a look of possession flared through him. Rei
swallowed at that look and slowly looked away from him in an attempt to hide
her flushed face.

"Hn." He growled in reply as he prepared to attack the man. His eyes slowly
traced over Rei's body, checking for the slightest bruise or cut on her
perfect, creamy skin. His insides burned at the thought of anyone touching
her, but his muscles seemed to keep him in place.

"You still owe me my money I lent you for your little toys. I couldn't find
your partner, Trowa, but the Silver Dragon Clan is looking for him at this
very moment. You know, you two are very popular in the underground world,
especially with these little cops that you two seem to have claimed. I might
as well take this one off your hands, your last one fell into my hands easily
and I have gotten tired of her." Kunzite said as he snapped his fingers and a
figure emerged from behind his chair.

"Relena." Heero whispered as he dropped to his knees. Her blue eyes lit upon
seeing him and she ran to him as he felt his arms open to her automatically.
She dropped down in front of him and flung herself into his arms as sobs
racked her body. She lifted her eyes to meet his and saw some unspoken
emotion deep within them. She leaned forward and captured his lips in a
passionate kiss. Kunzite smiled as he saw Heero surrender and he turned Rei
to stare at the scene. Her insides filled with an eternal flame and she felt
the urge to do something.

"Why do I feel this way, he is the enemy. I am here to capture him and take
him in for all the innocent people he has killed, but somehow I can see
beyond all that. That is it, I feel this way because he is a lost soul and I
am here to lead him back to his other half, although it looks like he has
already found her." She whispered to herself. She felt a breath on her neck
and averted her eyes to see Kunzite staring at her with steel eyes. An old
feeling erupted within her and an old flame seemed to burn once more.

"Does that remind you of us, of what we used to have? I can offer you
everything now; I have succeeded in making my dreams reality. Everything and
anything you want you can have, just say you will be mine once more." He
whispered into her ear. Rei lowered her head at his words and let her
thoughts wander. Something shot through her and she looked across the room
to meet a pair of ice-cold eyes. Heero held Relena close to him, but
something in his eyes seemed out of place. Time slipped away and Rei
continued to sink further into his being as he stared into hers. Fire and
ice danced before one another, as their eyes remained locked to one another.

"Heero." She whispered as Kunzite leaned into her.

"What?"

"No, I will not be yours. I fell in love with a man with a kind heart once.
That man no longer exists, only an empty shell of someone who has lost his
soul." She said bitterly as she pushed out of his grasp. Her chains rattled
and a fire of a gun was heard as she turned to see Heero pointing it at her.
Relena stood behind him and she held onto his waist in fright. The remains
of the chain lay scattered on the ground and Rei ran towards him.

"Come back!" Kunzite roared as she slipped from his grasp. Rei reached Heero
as she grinned at him and he returned it with a slight smirk. His stony face
turned towards Relena as it softened slightly and he swept her off the
ground. He took off towards the door as fast as his legs could take him and
he heard Rei's soft footsteps behind him.

"Fools, after them!" Kunzite cried to them as the men stood there in the
room. Rei continued to follow Heero as he ran through the halls. Their feet
echoed off the stairs and they soon reached the roof and the door slammed
open. The night air whipped past them and the stars twinkled. Relena slowly
lowered herself from Heero's arms and ran in front of him as a gunshot filled
the night. The uniformed man stood there slack jawed as he stared at the
dying woman, but Rei chopped him in the throat. He gagged and soon fell to
his knees.

"Relena." Came a strangled voice as Rei looked over in shock. Heero held
Relena's cold body against his and his eyes held a distant look. His fingers
were dug into her golden hair and her blue eyes were bottomless. A single
tear fell from his eye and Rei felt her vision blur at the sight. She was
not sure of what emotion made her cry, but something inside her erupted. She
slowly walked towards him and bent down as she stroked his spikes softly.
His body relaxed at the caress and he released Relena's body reluctantly. He
looked up at her with lost eyes and the only thing Rei could think of to do
was to take him into her arms. He went rigid in her embrace and then he crushed her against him as if he would lose her as well. Rei gasped and looked up at him as possession radiated from him as he looked at her. He looked over at Relena's body for a moment and more crystalline drops fell from his eyes, but not emotion reflected from them.

"Mine." He whispered into her ear as he buried his face in her neck. She gasped and felt her insides turning to mush, but her arms tightened in his embrace and leaned her head onto his. She turned her face to his and their noses brushed one another lightly. They stared into one another's eyes, but soon she felt cold hands grab her and she saw Heero growl dangerously as she was torn from him.
@(&@()&%)@(& (Beware: All who pass this point will witness Makoto/Trowa kawainess)

A figure stood in the shadows as he held a prone figure against him. Men with long leather coats passed right by him, not even knowing of his existence within the darkness. His cold green eyes flashed as they drew their guns and the prone figure began to stir and he swore under his breath. She began to groan and the men turned their attention in their direction as they began to advance on them in the shadows. His mind raced with thoughts of a way to escape, for if anything were to happen to the detective in his arms he wouldn't know what to do. The men began to load their weapons away and ran from the alley in a sprint.

"What the hell…?" he began, but was cut off as a fist caught him in the jaw. He reeled back and dropped the body to the ground. He looked down and saw the girl backing away with startled eyes. Her legs seemed to want to give out right then and there, but he just seemed to stand there.

"You shit! Where is Rei?!" she screamed at him as she swayed. His green eyes stared into hers and she shivered slightly from the feeling of the way he looked at her. She closed her eyes for a brief moment and when she opened them again as a fist to the back of the head met her. She gritted her teeth and blacked out as her head came in contact with the ground. Trowa just shook his head and smirked a bit as he picked up her prone body from the ground. She slumped into his arms and leaned into his chest. He stiffened a little bit and then relaxed as he carried her out into the sun of the sidewalks. He looked down at her and flinched slightly as he saw blood staining her delicate skin.

He slowly jumped out of the back of the large truck as Makoto was flung over his back and she bumped his head with hers. He spotted a large tent slowly taken down and he couldn't help it when a smile made its way to his lips.

"Home…" he whispered to himself. The soft fall breeze blew past him from the north and the girl on his back shivered violently from the cold. The thunderclouds slowly rolled towards them and it seemed like they were something dark from hell. He ran towards it with long strides and a woman looked over in his direction with wide eyes. They filled with tears and her brown hair seemed to glow in the sun.

"Trowa!" she yelled in pure joy as she dropped the basket she was carrying. She threw her arms around him and cried to the gods that he had been returned safely. He could not embrace her, but he leaned his head onto hers and whispered words of comfort and reassurance.

"Catherine." He murmured against her head. He nuzzled her hair fondly and smiled as she choked on a sob. She slowly looked up at him and then at the girl who was hanging from his back.

"Who is this?" she asked in a weak voice. She looked at the girl curiously and poked at her head of hair, but gained a growl from her. She backed away and flinched as the girl moved to show the dried blood on her face.

"This is the detective I was telling you about. She was on a case with her partner and ran into Kunzite and his gang. We are on the run from the Silver Dragon Clan ourselves…we need to find a place to hide out for a while…" he said hesitantly and Catherine just smiled as she nodded her head. She slowly walked behind him and heaved the girl from his shoulders. She quickly lost her balance from the weight and height of the girl and fell to the ground. Trowa quickly grabbed Makoto before she hit the ground and held her close so she would not get injured. He turned away from his sister and carried the girl into the mobile home with ease. Catherine sighed in annoyance and just smiled as she watched her brother be gentle for the first time in years.

"He must really be taken with her…" she said with slight pain in her tone. She looked out on the setting sun and made her way to the home where her brother and detective awaited.

Trowa looked down at the sleeping woman as her beautiful features glowed in the faint light of the moon. Her light silky brown hair glowed faintly and fell around her in swirls like caramel candy. Faint tints of gold highlighted it and he felt a sudden urge to run his finger through it, to see if it smelled as good as it look. He slowly traveled down to her closed lids and her dark lashes looked heavenly against her peaceful face. Her lips were full and they looked so soft to touch. He shook his head and looked towards the window as the rain beat softly upon it. The small specks splashed against the clear pane as if wanting to get inside. He leaned back tiredly in his seat and closed his eyes as if to sleep. The images of his meetings with Makoto slowly replayed them in his head automatically and he found himself enjoying the moments. Her fiery attitude made him interested in her and she seemed to have a raging flame within her like her friend. Heero…he must be having a heck of a time with that fiery cop. He couldn't help but smirk at the thought and his thoughts made him turn back to Makoto. He remembered when him and Heero had spied on the two women and she seemed to be a total opposite when it came to close friends.

"Hmmm…" he grumbled tiredly and soon fell into an endless sleep. He didn't notice the hand caressing his bangs as he drifted into sleep. Makoto brushed her hand lightly through his bangs and smiled at his peaceful face. She felt like tearing at his hair and beating him to a pulp for beating her senseless, but something about him made her stop. His face looked so childish and soft when he had no worries to feel. She felt an aching feeling pass through her as she wished he would open his eyes so she could gaze at the wild green of them. He looked so alike her and she wondered if he had been made for her especially. Talk about things being reincarnated, this guy must be made after some Greek god or something. Talk about a true attack, the first time I looked at him made me want to drool, but I somehow kept it in for Rei's sake.

"Trowa…" she whispered as she moved closer to him. Something made her ache for his touch and she couldn't help but move closer to this powerful man. She placed herself at his side and leaned over to rest beside him, but he shifted and turned his head to brush noses with her. She blushed furiously and cursed as he slowly opened his eyes. He stared at her for a moment before becoming aware of how close they were. He drew back suddenly and she tripped from the sudden movement. He dove to catch her and landed on the floor as she was pulled into him. She flew against him and her back leaned into his chest as he gasped her waist tightly to him. Makoto shifted uncomfortably in his grasp, but his grip remained tightly on her. She slowly traced her hands down his arms and felt the raw strength as the muscles contracted violently. She felt him lean forward and his breath sent shivers of excitement and slight fear through her. She turned her head and met a pair of cold eyes that seemed to burn for her.

TBC…
