Chapter 4:

I remember groggily waking up and found the lights in the room too bright. A face filled my vision as soon as my eyes opened and a familiar face was there. My eyes focused on the person and my mind started working well enough for me to recognize her as Hilde. Though there was something different about her that was hard to figure out. Her eye color was different; deep brown instead of bright blue, but there was something else.

"I'm so glad you're awake! I don't know what I would have done if you hadn't woken up soon." I sat up, though it was hard at first, and looked around the room. A fairly small room with one window, a wooden desk and chair set, and a closet with scratch marks on the door. "What is your name, honey?"

I blinked and looked at the woman I thought was Hilde, "It's Drea. Where am I?"

Hilde frowned as if thinking before answering me, "My house. Is that your full name? First name, I mean."

"No, it's Andrea. Andrea Yuy, if you have to know. Is your name Hilde?" The woman nodded and looked thoughtfully, and concerned, at me.

She asked me if I could get up and walk and I nodded and tried to get out of the bed. After a few wobbly steps, I was all right. I walked to the door then stopped and turned to her, "How did I get here? And why did you need to ask my name?"

Hilde walked over to me and then bent down to my eye level, "I am quite confused, to tell you the truth. Andrea disappears into nowhere and then someone else shows up where she left claiming to be her. Doing a good job, too, for you look almost exactly like her, except that the hair color is off. I'm starting to believe that you might be from another dimension. What are your parents names?"

"Heero and Relena, or did you know that as well? Hilde or whoever you are."

"I didn't know for sure but that was a good guess I had. That theory of mine is becoming more and more likely by the second, especially because of that scar on your forehead. What do you think of it, Andrea? Or should I say 'Drea'?"

I shrugged to her and then left the room. This was all becoming too strange too fast. I needed to think things over; that's what my dad always told me to do. My thinking was interrupted unfortunately when I stepped outside. All four of Hilde's kids were waiting to great me, even Ryan who was only one and a half.

"It's true!" Jesse exclaimed, "There is a girl who mommy rushed home with her that looks just like Andrea! Well, with the wrong color hair, though. What's your name? Do you want to be my friend?"

"I already am your friend as far as know, and I never much liked being it. Now will all of you go away? I want to think in peace." I remember knowing that wouldn't happen; the word "peace" didn't really mean anything to them. As I thought, all of them followed me except Dante, the oldest, who decided he had better things to do with his time.

"How did you get that cut on your head? Why are you ignoring me? What do you mean we're already friends? You still haven't told me your name, what is it?" These were the annoying questions I had to put up with from Jesse as I made my way to the front door of the house.

"Omae O korosu!" I yelled at them for what I thought was the hundredth time, probably only their first. They blinked and looked at each other—little Ryan had given up his pursuit as well because his legs couldn't carry him quickly enough—then shrugged and continue following me. I growled under my breath and yelled, "I will kill you!" at them. They knew what that meant but you wouldn't know it; they both started giggling and I was ambushed by an assault of tickling.

I picked up my feet and started running around the house until I could lose them. The two bakas thought it was a game! I really was in a mood for thinking, but I lost it after I somehow let the chasing turn into a game of tag. I actually had fun, too. This never would have happened if my dad was around; he disproved of most things that I thought was fun.

When the other two had tired--or so I got them to think--we sat down on the stairs and soon heard a key turning in the front door. The twins seemed to get renewed strength as they ran to the door screaming, "Daddy! Daddy!". I then took my chance to get away and ran to my room and locked the door behind me. I heard Hilde talking to Duo outside my room and couldn't help but here what she had to say.

She was telling him about me, my resemblance to Relena's daughter and that that was who I was claiming to be, and her theory she had now cemented that I was from another dimension. That's where she said she thinks the 'real' Andrea went. It did bug me that she thought of me as the unreal one. I remember slumping to the floor and leaning on my door as I thought of what my parents would be thinking. I knew neither would be panicking; it just wasn't like them to do that. I missed my dad, knowing him he would probably think the other me, or whoever she was, was a spy or something like that.

I curled up then and forced myself not to start crying. I was used to being lonely, but never this lonely. I started wondering about the one who should be here instead of me. A thought came to me that seemed all to likely; if I was hear and she wasn't, then I had probably switched places with the Andrea Yuy of this world.
