A Love for All Time

Minako smiled slyly to herself as she watched the van disappear down the road. Unbeknownst to her roommates, she had planted a tracking device on Heero when she hugged him, not to mention pick pocketing his wallet. As she grabbed her purse, which also contained her laptop, she smiled and pictured the look Heero would give her when he found out that she stole his wallet. Tossing his wallet lightly in her hand, she walked over to some of the other cars in the vast garage.

"This car is awesome!" Minako exclaimed as she came to a red convertible, even though there was no one there to hear her outburst. She reached into her purse and pulled out a metal pin. She stuck the pin into the car's lock and wiggled it around until she heard the click that meant the door was unlocked. She slid across the passenger seat into the driver's seat of the car and felt under the steering wheel for the wire that would start the engine.

'Ah, here it is.' She thought to herself as the car roared to life. 'I always knew that being able to hot-wire a car would come in handy one day.'

As Minako slammed her foot down on the gas pedal, the convertible peeled out of the garage. Minako found her way to the highway, and then pulled over to look at a map and check on the tracking device.

Minako opened her laptop and set up the tracking software. She typed furiously, checking to make sure all the data was right and the system was set up correctly.

'Good.' Minako thought to herself, 'It looks as if they're heading to the old training camp, but I'd better leave this on to make sure.' Then she hacked into Heero's e-mail. She found that his account was heavily guarded with all kinds of anti-hacking mechanisms, but finally, Minako was in.

Out loud to no one in particular, she laughed and commented, "Hee-chan thinks that he's the King of Hacking, and I just hacked into his e-mail. All those computer lessons from my training days have certainly been put to good use. Not to mention all the hacking I do with Ami. If you thought you could out-hack me, Yuy, then you'd better have another think coming."

She opened the e-mail from Dr. J to confirm her suspicions about the location of the meeting. The message was as follows:

Heero-

Our spies in the preventive unit have discovered a rebellion. The rebellion consists of OZ soldiers that escaped and others that they have recruited. So far, all they have is a small base and some artillery and bombs. I need to meet with you and the other Gundam pilots to brief you so we can kill the rebellion before it gets out of hand. Should you choose to accept the mission, I will meet at your old training camp in the weaponry hall.

-Dr. J

'Hmm...' Minako thought to herself, 'I'd better find out exactly what Gundam pilots are.' She connected to the Internet and after doing a search, she found the article she was looking for.

"Gundam pilots were soldiers who piloted mechas during the war to protect the colonies. The pilot 01 piloted Wing Zero. Pilot 02 was in charge of Death Scythe. Pilot 03 flies the Gundam Heavyarms. The Gundam Sandrock is piloted by Pilot 04. The final pilot, Pilot 05, piloted Shenlong. After the war, these mechas dissappeared and their location is unknown, to this date"

Minako grinned and opened the tracking device program. She propped the laptop up so that she could see it while she was driving, and then she was off. Minako's hair was blown straight out behind her and she leaned over to turn the radio on. For the next few hours, she listened to the radio, bobbing her head and singing along to the music, and carefully followed the same route as the tracker signal. Before she knew it, Minako could see the familiar buildings of her former training camp.

She pulled up the driveway, and screeched to a stop at the security booth. The guard peered down at her. "Is that you, Minako?" he said.

"Sure is! You're Brian, right? I had explosives class with you five-years-ago. Could you let me in?" Minako asked.

"Well, I need some proper ID that proves you're allowed to be here, before I can do that." Brian said

Then Minako gave him her patented puppy dog look. "Pleeeease. I have some really important business here and, silly me, I forgot my ID at home."

The look did the trick. "Anything for an old friend." Brian said cheerfully as he opened the gate.

Minako sped through the gate and into the parking lot, muttering under her breath, "I love corrupt security guards. What would I do without them?"

Quickly she parked the car and jumped out. She strode over the entrance of the familiar weaponry hall. Two guards stood in front of the door, and glared at her.

"Do you have identification, miss?" one of the soldiers asked.

Minako just grinned and said, "Nope. Is that a problem?"

As one of the soldiers moved towards her she did a flying side-kick to the face and knocked him out. Then she spun around and did a chop to the back of the other guard's head. He fell to the ground and Minako checked to make sure that both of the guards wereunconscious before she strode confidently through the door.

She walked down the hall until she came to a door she recognized as the weaponry hall, which she opened. "Hey everybody!" she said.

"Minako?!?" Duo, Wufei, Trowa, Quatre and Dr.J gasped.

Heero, on the other hand just groaned and said, with frustration evident in his voice, "I TOLD you not to come!"

"Minako, what are you doing here, and where have you been for the past five years?" Dr. J asked suspiciouly.

"I found out that you wanted to meet with the Gundam pilots to discuss how to destroy a base, and I thought it sounded like fun, so I decided to tag along. As for where I've been, well, that's none of your business." Minako said sassily.

"How did you find out about this meeting?" Dr. J asked.

Minako flashed him one of her infamous smiles and said, "Eavesdropping and hacking into Hee-chan's e-mail. You really should put more defense mechanisms up, Hee-chan. It was suprisingly easy to hack into."

Heero glared at her when he heard that last comment, but Minako just grinned back.

"Hold on a second." Duo said, "I have a couple of questions of my own. For instance, Dr. J, how do you and Minako know each other."

To this, Dr. J sighed and then said, "Along with Heero, Minako was one of our top students at the training program here. About five years ago, she mysteriously ran away. I hadn't heard hide nor hair of her until now."

"Anyway," Minako said, "I came here to help, so can I? Oh, by the way, you should replace the guards you have in front of this building, they were really easy to knock out. I think they'll be out for a while."

Dr. J sighed exasperatedly and said, "I suppose you can help. After all, you WERE one of the best students that I've ever had. I'll have Heero brief you about our mission."

Duo looked at Minako in awe. He would have never thought that a girl like her would be capable of being a soldier.

"Since it's getting late we should turn in because you guys are going to have a long day tomorrow. We only have three extra rooms, though, so you guys are going to have to bunk together. Duo and Quatre will be in room 24. Wufei and Trowa can take room 25. And Minako and Heero can stay in room 26. Heero brief Minako about the mission, she'll be riding in your gundam tomorrow. I'll meet you here tomorrow and 6:00AM sharp." Dr. J said with authority before he turned to leave.

Minako heard Wufei grumble, "How come I have to work with a weak onna?" as he sulked out of the room.

As soon as Dr. J and the others left the room Heero turned to Minako and said, "How did you get here?"

"Uh, Hee-chan...." Minako said and then gave him an innocent look. "I sort of stole your wallet, in case I needed money. Then I put a tracking device in your back pocket as I was hugging you, and after you guys left I hot wired one of Quatre's cars."

"Mi'ko-chan..." Heero said warningly.

"I'm sorry, Hee-chan." She replied in a small voice as she looked up at him with her big, blue eyes.

He sighed and then gave her a hug, "I can never stay mad at you. Come let's head to our room so I can brief you on our mission."

Minako lightly kissed his lips and then took his hand. She smiled up at him and dragged him out the door and down the hall to their room. She giggled and then opened the door. Minako skipped into the room and flopped onto one of the two beds.

She sighed and said, "Come on, we'd better get started." She got up from the bed and then sat down at the desk that sat against a wall.

Heero took a chair next to her and pulled out his laptop. For the next two hours they looked over the blueprints spies had gathered of the base they were going to attack, they discussed the best strategies, and decided on the best plan of action.

While Heero was busy hacking into files to find out more information on the organization, Minako studied their weapons. Heero found out who the leaders were and was about to tell Minako, but when he looked over at her, he saw that she had fallen asleep and was snoring softly. Heero smiled and gently picked Minako up. He laid her down gingerly on her bed and kissed her softly.

'I probably should be getting to bed too.' Heero thought, 'I won't be of much use tomorrow if I'm asleep on my feet.'

TBC...

A.N: What did you think? I sort of threw this together. I basically have the whole fic planed out, but I need to get up off my lazy butt and write it. I may change some things so e-mail me or tell me in your reviews if you have any ideas. It's a little bit short, but what can I say.....
