Chapter 6
Disclaimer: I don't own Gundam but I do own my fanfic character ^_^. Gee, I'm rather bad at updating this one, but then again, that's what happens when you have eight unfinished fics! (And I suppose that's my fault) Ehm, Anyways, here is the sixth chapter of A Girl?!?! On further note, I have a story up called "Soon to be Memory" and it explains most of the foggy parts of this story concerning her past. Since the character is deeply affected and influenced by her life as a child.
After walking along the OZ corridors for several hours, she hadn't found a single computer left in open view that could possibly be hacked into. The OZ organization was much smarted than she thought, but she had to be smarter. As she passed by Treize's office she could hear several voices talking. She quickly situated herself to lean against the wall and eavesdrop; perhaps this morning would not be a waste of her time.
"OZ's plans to overthrow the alliance must be kept a secret," Treize was saying, "Lady, you know what to do."
"Yes, your excellence," a female voice answered, "I will go right now."
"I know I can trust you," Treize replied with hint of passion in his voice. Lady Une walked out of the office and thankfully did not notice Selene who was pressing her self against the wall in an effort not to be seen. There still had to be someone else in that room for she could her more talking.
"Treize," the voice was deep and obviously belonged to Zechs.
"Yes, Mi," Treize was not able to finish his sentence for Zechs interrupted.
"I told you never to call me that," he replied coldly.
"My mistake," Treize answered, "I'm supposing you want to be the one to take over the Sanc Kingdom Alliance base, am I not correct?"
"Yes," Zechs whispered. Selene's heart leapt, what in the world would Zechs want to go to the Sanc Kingdom for? She quickly sprinted away before he would walk out and catch her. She headed straight for that secluded room where she had been earlier. Catching her breath, she pulled out the miniature laptop and punched the yellow button returning it to normal size. As fast as humanly possible she typed in all the data she had received from listening to the conversation and sent it to Heero and the other pilots. She then pressed the green button and returned the laptop to her pocket. Now to ponder over what Zechs would want with the Sanc Kingdom. She remembered the place very well, she had been brought there after her mother had died and placed under the care of the Peacecrafts. There, she had first sensed the emotions many children should have had from the day they were born. She had felt like she belonged, like she had a family that would keep her safe from any tribulations life sent her way. She had met Milliardo Peacecraft, an energetic young boy, and though three years older had meant a lot to her. She clenched her fists, it didn't last long, and she found that whenever she found happiness it was ripped away from her. The Sanc Kingdom had fallen, and all the royal family had died. She would have died too, along with them but no; she had to be saved. Her mind remembered distinctly the Alliance soldier that was about to kill her, when all of a sudden gunshots were heard. She had screamed as strong arms had carried her away to what she didn't know at the time would be safety. She was taken to a man named Dr. J, with whom she spent most of her life training to be a Gundam Pilot. Training to have her revenge- for her father and the Peacecrafts who had all fallen in the midst of this horrible war.
"Someone's going to be late for breakfast," a strong voice interrupted her thoughts. She looked up; it was Zechs Merquise perhaps the last person in the world she ever wanted to see. Her eyes were filled with the flame of hatred as she walked by him and to the soldier's mess hall for breakfast. The mess hall was rather large with long tables. Most of the soldiers would bunch up into groups and eat together but Selene noticed there was no place for her among them. She simply grabbed her breakfast- a donut and some orange juice and sat at the far end of a table away from the rest of everyone. Perhaps she should have tried to mix in with the soldiers and see what valuable tidbits she would be able to pick up, yet her instincts told her that would probably be futile. As a woman in a pool of men she would never fully be accepted, especially since she was much younger than most of the people here anyway. That didn't matter though, she didn't come here to make friends; she came to do business and to take OZ down. She quickly finished her breakfast, and went to her room to think about her current position.
Zechs stared at the new lieutenant eating by herself in the corner; somehow she made him feel uneasy. What was she up to now? He was pretty sure that there was something going on with that girl that was far from normal for any regular soldier. That glint of loathing in those dark blue eyes; she was definitely up to something and he had to stop her before she did too much damage.
"Something bothering you Colonel?" Haft asked noticing that Zechs seemed like he was somewhere else.
"No not at all," he answered smiling, "I was just thinking we haven't had a battle in a long time." As he spoke the red siren above the mess hall clock started flashing signaling that they were under attack.
"Everyone into the mobile suits!" Zechs shouted getting up swiftly.
"Lieutenant Lunata is not present!" Haft told the Colonel.
Zechs groaned thinking, "That girl will get herself in a tight spot one of these days." He ran off to go find her, for if the base were destroyed with her in it, the blame would fall on him.
Selene lay back in her bed closing her sore eyes and hoping to catch a quick nap before practice. Just when she was about to fall asleep, she heard a knock at her door. She slowly walked up to the door yawning, what did they want now? As she opened the door she was surprised to see Zechs with a very serious look on his face.
"What's wrong Mask boy?" she asked sarcastically.
"First of all, it's Colonel Zechs Merquise to you," he seemed to become more serious by the second, "second of all, we are under attack and you need to report to the mobile suit hanger immediately."
Selene smiled towards the last part; finally she would get to see some action.
Ok! That's the next chapter everyone! PPPPLEEEEASE R and R? This was actually my first gundam fic when I started it. Your response is really important to me for what I do next with this fic.
