Meet The Gundams
It was a regular
meeting between the Gundam pilots, Noin, Milliardo, Sally and the girls. March
Break was coming up, and Quatre had a suggestion.
"Since the March Break
is coming up, and the girls' Gundams will be done before then, why not go to
the colonies?" Quatre asks.
Miroki blinked, "The
colonies? You mean space?"
"Yea, why not? We
can have a relaxing break in one of the colonies, and the girls can learn how to
pilot their Gundams in space while we're at it," Duo nods.
"Which colony?" Kara
asks.
Quatre grins,
"Luckily I talked to Iria before then, I told her we might be heading for the
colonies. So I guess to my home colony, there's enough room for everyone."
"Sounds good," Trowa
agrees.
Miroki gives the
okay, "Okay then, I guess we're heading to Quatre's home!"
"Just one question,
is there anything we need to know before heading into space?" Kara asks.
"There's a few
things, but nothing you girls can't handle," Duo leans back in his chair.
"Now that we have
that settle, we have to settle things about the e-mailer, and soon the girls
first official mission," Noin changes the subject.
"Any leads?" Kara
addresses Noin.
She shakes her head,
"None, we've gone through all of the teacher's profiles, but nothing has turned
up. We're thinking of looking through the students, but we're not sure if
that'll give us anything."
Heero nods, "Better
do that anyways. Till then, we're on stand by."
Days pass by, and
finally the day arrived when the two new Gundams were ready. Miroki and Kara
walk into the hanger, looking up at the Gundams. Now that both girls have
thought of it, it was the first time they were up close to any kind of Gundam.
Dr. J was already there; ready to give them a briefing on their new suits.
The first one was a
dark purple Gundam, wielding a staff in its right hand.
Dr. J looked up at
it, "This is yours Miroki, Gundam 06, otherwise called the FissureStrike. Both
Gundams do very well in space, though this one is excellent for ground battles.
Vulcan canons on the shoulder like most of the Gundams. The staff is double
ended for three functions: Defense, and two attacks. The top end has a thermal
split ended blade while the other can release fissure waves into the ground
when activated into land. The same end shall serve as a wave shield, which can
enclose the Gundam. Missiles are enclosed around the waistline. "
They kept on walking
till they got to an icy blue Gundam. It reminded Kara slightly of Heero's Gundam,
because of the wings that graced the Gundam.
Dr. J stopped in
front of it, "This is the AngelWing Kara, Gundam 07. While Miroki's Gundam is
excellent for ground battles, yours does well in the sky. Vulcan canons like
Miroki's; this one doesn't have a shield because the wings act as one. One wing
and fold onto the Gundam to protect it, or both can to protect it from a blast.
In the inner part of the wings are homing missiles, and lastly there is your
own thermal sword," he turns around addressing both girls, "Any questions?"
"I do," Miroki looks
up, "When do we get to pilot these things?"
"When you head to
the colony of course," Dr. J replied.
Kara stared at Dr.
J, "But aren't we heading to the colony today?"
"That's the point."
Before the girls knew
it, they were being decked out into space suits. Tight black body suits just
like everyone else, the only way you could tell any of the pilots apart was by
the colour and symbol that was on the chest of each suit. It was strange to
them, to have to wear the suits, as well as the helmet that went with them, but
as Duo explained. It was better to wear them, than to get blasted out of your
mobile suit and into space without them. Pointing out that that had happened
several times to the Gundam pilots. Of course, the girls knew that. Kara was
adjusting her helmet, when she noticed that Miroki was frowning, "What's the
matter Miroki?"
"I wonder how Duo
can put on his helmet with that long braid of his," Miroki muttered, adjusting
her hair.
Kara shrugged, "Beats
me."
"Let's go, better
not keep them waiting," Miroki murmured.
Starting the flight
wasn't bad, in fact they spent most of the time on autopilot, since it was just
to fly to the colony. Before they really reached the colony though, they
stopped. Kara slowly opened her eyes, as the Gundam beeped, saying that they
were at their destination. There was nothing but space; far off she should see
something really bright. Probably the colony they would be heading to after
their quick lesson. If there were anything she could say about being in space
it would be one thing.
"It's beautiful out
here," Miroki breathed.
Quatre smiled, "Yes,
it's just really sad that most of the battles take place in space."
"Talk about ruining
a good thing," Duo added.
Heero cut in, "We
better started now, before someone notices us. I don't think the girls would
want to take on a bunch of mobile dolls if we're discovered."
"How long will it
take them to notice?" Kara asked.
"Who knows, they
don't really patrol around here, but…" Duo drifted off, "Someone is bound to
notice seven Gundams."
Miroki nods, "Right,
so what do you want us to do?"
At that moment a
white Taurus comes into view, "Learn how to spar in space. Here you'll be
pushed to go as fast as you can, since mobile dolls have the advantage of
speed," Noin explains.
"The idea is for
Miroki to spar with Wufei, and I will spar with Kara," Heero finishes.
Both girls nod.
The four Gundams
started to face off with each other, whether it was just plain bad luck or an
unfortunate stroke of fate. One thing was certain, Mobile Dolls had found
them.
Duo cursed under his
breath, "Heads up guys, we've got company…"
Noin checked the
radar, "How many of them?"
"Five Taurus Mobile
Doll Units," Stated Heero.
"We are in a lot…of
trouble…" Murmured Kara as she watched them approach.
"You onna better be
ready…"
"Oh thanks for
having faith in us Wufei," Miroki said sarcastically.
Kara asked, "Is
there anything we should know before we engage into battle with these guys?"
"Uh yea… first go
really fast cause these guys can go faster than normal pilots can,
theoretically. Also, keep fighting and pray you don't have to use the self
detonation device," Duo tries to joke.
"Like Heero did in
episode ten," Miroki murmured to herself quite loudly.
"HUH?!?!" Duo stared
at Miroki on the video comlink.
"Just a little
something… just remember the last time he actually managed to kill himself… ok?
Ok."
"Miroki, they did
not need to know that…" Kara sighed.
"Not that I mean
it…"
"Well to be honest
Miroki, you're kinda freaking them out right now, that's the last thing we
need!"
"OK GUYS! Don't
freak out cause they're coming!!!" Miroki gestures in her Gundam towards the
coming Mobile Dolls.
The Taurus' lined up
in a row and started hailing them with fire blasts, etc. Everyone quickly moved
out of the way, just barely. Everyone
got their weapons ready, Trowa got ready to aim. They all picked a target, and started charging at them. The
Mobile Dolls quickly broke out of their original formation, though G-boys had
no trouble with this, the two girls had not battled with Mobile Dolls before.
"Shit! These guys
are fast…" Kara swore.
"How in bloody hell
do I use these weapons?!?!?" Miroki cried out in frustration.
"I wonder what is
worse…being attacked by Mobile Dolls, or being attacked by Mobile Dolls and not
having a clue on how to use your Gundam," Kara dodges another blast.
"WHAT DO YOU
THINK!?!?! All you did was add another unfortunate disaster after the first
one!!!" Miroki shrieked.
Quatre just calmly
instructed, "Just use your thermal weapons and go after them, they're fast but
you should be able to go as fast as the Mobile Dolls."
"Thermal
weapons...right…" Kara searched for the button that would release her thermal
sword.
Miroki was not that
patient and called to Quatre absentmindedly, "THANKS HONEY!! I'D APPREICIATE
IT!!!"
Quatre
"……………………uhhh...not...a problem…"
Kara cringed, "God
help us…oh and don't worry, she always says that when she's in a spot… found
the button!!!"
Miroki pressed every
button possible, "God... one of them has to be a weapon…" she pressed one
button which released a huge fissure wave from the bottom tip of her staff. So
that attack was used for ground battles…but space?
Kara was the first
to notice, "EVERYONE!!! MOVE!!!"
The pilots moved out
of the way in time but unfortunately one of the Mobile Dolls was destroyed by
the wave.
Duo let out a low
whistle, "Well…that worked!"
Trowa just calmly
suggested, "Next time we explain how to use the Gundams before taking them into
space…"
"Didn't anyone show
them the outline of the Gundams?!?" Noin asked incredulously.
Wufei sarcastically
answered, "Obviously not!"
Miroki scowled at
Wufei, "At least I beat one and you didn't!!!"
"Could we save the
insults til later? I'd like to get
through this battle in one piece!"
Quatre nods, "I
agree…Heero, Kara, you go after one Mobile Doll; Duo and Trowa, go after
another; Wufei will probably work by himself but Lt. Noin can help him if he
needs it and Miroki and I'll work on one together."
"Sounds good," Trowa
said.
"Anything for you
Quatre!" Miroki cried.
"As long as we get
through this…" Kara nods.
"Let's kick some
ass!" Duo grins like a maniac.
"Mission…accepted…"
Heero states in his usual monotone voice.
"I don't need help
from a weak onna," Wufei snorted.
"Shut up Chang,"
Miroki snapped back.
"Let's go," Quatre
put on his goggles.
They all charged,
this time the girls weren't caught off guard, and fortunately they out numbered
the dolls greatly. The battle wasn't quick to end, but at least it ended. Heero
and Kara surrounded one doll back to forth, at the same time used their thermal
swords to slice right through. Trowa started shooting at one doll, it kept
dodging his shots, but it was too busy to notice Duo until a scythe went through
it. Quatre charged at the mobile suit, it got ready for him. The computer in
the doll was confused as Quatre passed, only to be blasted by another fissure
wave from Miroki. Wufei quickly dealt with the last mobile doll, proving that
he didn't need Noin's help after all. Noin surveyed the battlefield, "We better
head to the colony now, before more come."
"I won't disagree on
that one," Miroki answered, " and by the way Quatre, did anyone ever say you
look terribly cute with your goggles on?"
Kara rolled her eyes,
"Miroki…"
"Wooooo!!! You go
man!" Duo cheered.
Other than that
little thing, the ride to Quatre's home colony was a quiet one. They landed in
a hanger not to far from his house. Even though Quatre was blushing from
Miroki's earlier comment, he was there to escort his friends to his home. He
and Miroki were walking up to the house arm and arm. Followed by Heero, Duo,
Wufei, Trowa, Noin, and Kara. Kara was far in the back; she had this sinking
feeling that they were in for a very big welcome. A very big welcome as Kara
found out was a very big understatement.
They all poured into
the house and they all looked around, but it was only Kara and Miroki,
especially Miroki, who was gawking at the size of the house. They were all told
ahead of time that there was a wing set aside for them so that they can get the
first dibs on the bedrooms. So it was natural they all immediately headed
towards the rooms, except Quatre and Miroki. Miroki was still gawking at the
size of the house and Quatre was watching her.
"You seemed to be
pretty amazed," Quatre commented softly.
Miroki turned to
face him, "As a fellow writer, especially when you're around a fellow fan,
we've always imagined how your house would be like, like we knew it was going
to be big, but this is more than big! Period. I mean I could probably kick
Chang across the house but my kick wouldn't push him across the house."
Quatre chuckled,
"Should I consider that a compliment or worry on Wufei's well being?"
"I don't know, it
all depends on if Wufei pisses me off," Miroki grinned.
Quatre walks up
close to her, "Uh, I'm glad you're liking it so far."
"Aren't you worried
your sisters are going to come home Quatre?"
"Well that's why I
chose March Break cause generally, they're not home."
Miroki's grin just
got wider, "Good, cause then, I was afraid I couldn't do this…" she grabbed him
by the shoulders and kisses him.
"QUATRE!!!"
"MASTER QUATRE!!!"
Quatre quickly looks
up and sees, who else but his 29 sisters, and the whole 40 Maguanac soldiers.
He spluttered, "W-what are you guys doing here?!? I thought you'd be away this
March Break!!!"
Miroki thought
quietly to herself, "Oh god…if the stories about them are true, I'm so dead…"
Suddenly they all
came up and surrounded them, some saying, "Quatre! Why didn't you tell us?!?"
others saying, "Master Quatre you didn't tell us you've got a girlfriend!"
Meanwhile, Quatre
was trying to say something but it was hard to say anything with them talking
like that.
A voice cut in,
"Uhhh what's going on?"
Rashid asked, "May I
ask who you are miss?"
Kara pointed to
Miroki, "I'm her friend."
Trowa came up behind
Kara, "I think it's best to leave them alone…"
"Did I miss
something?" Kara asked.
Trowa just grabbed
her arm, "Trust me," and dragged her out of the house.
Rashid was the first
to address Quatre and Miroki, "Master Quatre, we were expecting you to bring
the new Gundam Pilots but instead, you bring this nice young lady."
Miroki stared,
"Uhhh…nice? I think you've got the wrong person…"
Adul wrapped his arm
around Miroki's shoulder and grins, "Come on, you must be a really nice lady to
have Master Quatre to love you so much."
Quatre flushed, "How
long have you guys been there?"
Iria grins, "Long
enough I would say, long enough to see you two kiss. Is that the reason you
wanted us out of the house little brother?"
Miroki gave Quatre
that please-help-me look.
Quatre was trying to
say something, "I-I…"
"You weren't lying
to us when you said that you're bringing the two new pilots along. Were you
Quatre?" Iria asks.
"No!" Quatre shook
his head, "Of course not! Iria, sisters, guys, this is Miroki Sekkio, pilot 06,
and that girl that Trowa dragged out is pilot 07, Kara Winters."
Rashid blinked in
surprise, "So… these ladies are the new Gundam pilots?"
"If you ask me,"
Adul grins, wrapping his other arm around Quatre's shoulder, "That just means
that Master Quatre now has someone who understands him!"
Miroki thought
miserably, "I want to crawl under a rock and die… Please say you don't want to
talk more about this…"
"Hey! What's all the
commotion about?" Duo walked in, staring at the large group.
Heero smirked,
"Looks like everyone is here."
"Hmm… At least
Sekkio gets to meet Quatre's family," Wufei smirked as well.
Iria smiled, "Since
everyone but Trowa and Kara are here, why don't we all go into the living room
and talk about what's happen since little brother left for Wing School?"
"I need to check
with Noin about the girls' first mission," Heero stated briskly.
Duo stared as Heero
left, "I… uh… need to help Heero. See ya!"
"Don't have time for
small chit-chat," Wufei replied, and left too.
Adul pulled Quatre
and Miroki together, "That leaves just Master Quatre and his lady friend."
Miroki thought silently
to herself, "Where's Kara when I need her? And why in the hell did the other
boys chicken out?"
"This is going to be
a long day…" Quatre thought at the same time.
Duo and Heero were
walking down the hall, as Noin came towards them. Heero simply grabbed Noin's
arm, and dragged her back down from where she came.
"Hey! What's the big
idea?" Noin frowned.
Duo smirked,
"Quatre's sisters, and the Maguanac Corp are talking about Quatre's personal
life, and Miroki is with him."
"I don't want to be
there, but we should bail them out later," Heero added.
"Oh… so then what
now?"
"Any word from the
school?" Duo changed the subject.
Noin nods, "Yea,
there's a hidden base near here. Mission is to enter the base, find out what
you can, and then blow the whole thing up."
"When do we start?"
Duo asked as they stopped walking.
"As soon as you
think the girls are ready, and when you figure out the best way of going about
doing this," Noin replied.
Heero thought for a
minute, "Undercover would be the best way, and the girls are ready for this."
"So when are you
going to tell them?"
Heero smirked, "When
Miroki and Quatre aren't so tied up."
"You do realize
Miroki is going to have our heads for not helping her," Duo murmured.
"As usual…"
Miroki and Quatre
were sitting on a couch in one of the many living rooms in the house. Currently, they're trying to figure out a
way to get out of the room, without anyone following them. Like there was such
luck, there were 29 sisters and 40 Maguanac soldiers, the chances of getting out
were very slim. Quatre was eyeing the double doors while Miroki was listening
to the 29 sisters explain to her that they've been attempting to pair up Quatre
for such a long time, to her thoughts, with 29 sisters, he must've gotten a
date at least twice a month for the entire year…
Quatre gave a polite
cough, "Miroki and I have to business to attend to."
One of Quatre's
other sisters asked, "What for little brother, aren't you here for the March
Break?"
Miroki quickly
added, "Yea we are, but while we're here, I need to learn how to use a Gundam.
After all, I am a Gundam Pilot right?"
Rashid to give them
an out, "Miss Miroki is right, they will need time to prepare for the upcoming
battles. If you ever need us, or if you need to go on a mission, take us with
you Master Quatre, we can be a great help."
Quatre smiled
gratefully, "Of course, don't' worry."
Miroki smiled while
muttering under her breath, "It's not that he needed help with his kissing
technique…"
Trowa was still
dragging a very confused Kara down the street. He figured it was best for them
to go somewhere until Miroki and Quatre had talked things out with Quatre's
sisters and friends. The only question was where was he going to take her for a
few hours knowing Quatre's sisters. Seeing that a nearby ice cream shop was his
only choice he dragged her in.
"Trowa, you mind
explaining to me what just happened?"
"Do you really want
to stay in a house full of Quatre's sisters?" Trowa questioned, dragging her to
a booth.
Kara thought for a
moment, "No but…should we have left Miroki alone in there?"
"She was the center
of attention, she'll deal with it somehow," he sat on one side.
"If Miroki ever gets
out of there, someone is going to die, knowing her."
"Judging her
attitude, she'll let her fury out on Wufei first…"
Kara sighed, "What
else is new? I swear one of these days; someone is going to get killed. Either
it's a) Wufei, b) Heero or c) Duo…"
"Or you…" Trowa
pointed out.
"Bloody unlikely,"
Kara muttered under her breath.
"What gives you that
idea?" Trowa asked.
"No clue, at least
she's my best friend and Wufei's on her best enemy list…"
"It's a scary thing
knowing that those two will have to work together."
A waitress stops to
serve them, "What would you like?"
"Cookie Dough," Kara
looked up.
"Pistachio," Trowa
answered.
"Okay, coming right
up!"
Kara turned to
Trowa, "I know… then again, Wufei like's to work alone anyways."
The waitress comes
back, giving them their ice cream.
"Good point."
Kara licks her cone
thoughtfully, "Uh… how long are we going to have to stay here?"
"I'd give it a few
hours," Trowa replied.
"What are we going
to do for a few hours?"
"What do you
suggest?"
Kara shrugged, "I'll
think of something."
When they finished
their cones, Kara's something was a simple walk in the park. At least until
they have deemed it safe to return to the Winner estate. When they did return,
Quatre and Miroki were safely in the hanger. Miroki was already in her Gundam,
with Heero going over the different functions. Kara didn't say a word; instead
she jumped into the cockpit of her Gundam and got Duo to explain everything to
her. This went on for about an hour or so. Afterwards, they were all sitting
around the table, discussing plans for their mission.
"So, how many of us are
going to go undercover?" Kara asked.
Wufei frowned,
"Undercover could take days, I don't think we have days Heero."
"True we don't, but
we can learn more if we do, than if we don't," Heero replied back.
Miroki sat back,
with a serious look, and in deep thought, "Timing will be our biggest problem…
This could take more than just a week."
"That's why we live
in the dorm back home," Kara reminded her friend.
"So?" Trowa decided
it was time to get down to business, "Who is going and who isn't?"
~A Few Days Later~
Like Miroki had
said, it was clear that this whole mission would take much more than a week. It
was harder for the G-boys to enter as soldiers, since as Gundam pilots they
were already known. For the girls on the other hand, it was easy, since no one
had really heard of them. Miroki was assigned to a post as a pilot in a Virgo
hanger. Heero was to guard a part of the base that was set aside for different
projects with Trowa. Kara was to oversee communications in the COM tower. It
soon became clear that they would be waiting for a long time, and Kara and
Miroki had no idea what they were waiting for. That's when a message came in;
Kara was the only one to receive this message.
"Is this line
secure?" Heero asked.
Kara quickly went to
work, "Give me a minute or two. Okay, talk."
"I need you to
create a distraction."
"Come that by me one
more time Heero, how in the hell am I going to do that?"
Heero growled, "I
don't care if you blow up half of the base, just do it! And be prepare to leave
at a moment's notice."
"Okay, okay… I'll
think of something, if you feel the base shake, then you know that was a
something," Kara replied.
She switched the
line, making another secure line to Miroki, "Miroki, I need you now!"
"What's up?"
"Heero needs a
distraction, do you think you could… uh… blow up several mobile suits at once?"
Kara asked.
"You are joking
right?"
"Does it sound like
I'm joking? Of course not!"
Miroki shook her
head; "You might as well as me to shoot at a couple of propane tanks while
you're at it."
"Actually, empty
propane tanks work better for a loud boom," Kara murmured.
"I'll pretend I
didn't hear that."
"Right… so that
distraction…" Kara frowned, "Miroki? Miroki…"
BOOM!
Kara nearly fell out
of her chair, and on to the floor, she growled, "Warn me before doing that!"
"At least that got
their attention, got to go!"
Everyone was
panicking, for which reason she couldn't tell. Fortunately with all of the
commotion going on, Kara was able to slip out of the tower unnoticed. She
walked down the halls, watching other people run pass her. Hurrying her pace,
she started to run down the hall. Meanwhile Miroki was doing the same thing,
only she was really running. She didn't want anyone to catch her, and ask her
about the mobile suits she just blew up. Besides, if push comes to shove the
odds that they figured out who destroyed nearly half the hanger was not in her
favor. As if things couldn't get any worse, they did, as she watched a group of
soldiers heading her way. Miroki slipped into another room, the minute she
closed the door. She felt a barrel of a gun at her neck, and the sound of the
safety going off. Quickly she pushed the person away, tripping that soldier and
shoving the soldier against the wall.
"Hey! Easy Miroki!"
Kara gasped.
Miroki let her
friend go, "Sorry, what was that about?"
"Didn't know who'd
come through that door," Kara replied.
Miroki headed
towards the computer on the desk, "Lock the door."
It was clear that
the girls had ended up in someone's office. A really nice office at that,
Miroki sat down to do her hacker's thing. Kara locked and watched the door.
"What are you
looking for?" Kara had her back to the door.
Miroki shrugged,
"Anything that could help us. Cool!"
Kara stepped behind
Miroki, looking over her shoulder, "What?"
"First, now I know
why Heero wanted the distraction. Remember he's posted where all of the
experiments are?"
Kara nods, "Uh huh…"
"Well, Oz wants to
make a machine that will allow them to move a base as big as a colony into
space in our world," Miroki explained.
That thought
processed through Kara's mind, "But that would mean they would have to build
one machine in their space and one in ours. That could take year or more, which
means they've been here longer than we thought…"
"Exactly! It makes
it more possible that a student is the e-mailer and that we probably passed by
a soldier lots of times and didn't even know it!"
"But…" Kara frowned,
"Wouldn't have anyone noticed something going on in space?"
"Who knows? That's
the good news," Miroki replied.
"The bad news?"
"The project is
almost done, they're holding a party for it, somewhere in Hong Kong in our
world. The guy who invented the thing will make a grand appearance, which means
we have a new mission," Miroki murmured.
"Two new missions,"
Kara corrected.
"Huh?"
"Think about it,
Heero will probably want this inventor assassinate or something, while at the
same time we do need to get rid of these machines."
"Figures, I've
downloaded the information, let's jet," Miroki took out a disk.
"OPEN THIS DOOR!"
"Uh oh… We're in
trouble…" Kara looked at the door.
"Jump out the
window?" Miroki suggested.
"Forget it."
Miroki listened as the soldiers tried to break down the door, "One of us plays
soldier?"
"That's an idea…"
another voice stated.
Both girls turned to
see Trowa there; Miroki raised a brow, "How long?"
"Been looking for
you girls," Trowa answered, missing the whole question, "So, who has the disk?"
Miroki held it up,
"I do."
Trowa looked at Kara,
"Any small explosives on you?"
"No."
He tossed her
something, which looked like a small beacon, the size of a very thick dollar,
"Hide it somewhere."
She opened her outer
coat, and put it in the inner pocket.
"Miroki, lay on the
ground, when they open the door…"
Miroki finished,
"Get up and run like hell for the hanger, I know. This sounds like something
you and Heero pulled off. I just hope minus the really getting knocked out
part," she pointed to Kara.
Trowa eyed to both
of them, Kara grinned, "EW, Heero knocks Duo and pretends to be knocked out
himself. It works, but how am I going to pull this off?"
He motions to the
door they didn't see earlier, "This way to the medical bay."
They both follow him
into a sertile white room, with a table and medical equipment. They could hear
soldiers also trying to break down the door from there too. Kara looked at
Trowa questioning.
"The high officer
here is a doctor," Trowa explained looking through the cabinets.
"What are you
looking for?" Miroki asks.
Trowa comes back
with a needle and a small bottle. Kara looked at him, then to the needle.
Sighing in defeat, knowing that it was pointless to argue, Kara sits on the
table. Rolls up one of the sleeves, as Trowa is wiping a part of her arm he
explains, "It should only knock you out for a few minutes, at least that is for
the dose I'm giving you."
Miroki smirks, "Kara
won't complain, but she hates needles with a passion."
"Watch it!" Kara
growled.
Trowa calmly watches
to the two argue as he slips the needle in, "It's time, be careful both of
you."
Kara rolls her
sleeve back down, "Don't worry."
"Yea, we'll pull
through," Miroki nods, as she lies down.
"Kara, after you get
out, meet me in the hanger."
"Right, I'll… be…"
Kara drifts off to sleep.
"That was fast," Miroki
murmured, putting her head on the floor.
As if it was
all-normal, Trowa picked Kara up off the table. He faces the door, as soldiers
pour in from both sides.
"It's okay, I've
stopped them already," Trowa told the soldiers.
Using that as the
cue, Miroki got up and ran. Ignoring the yells shouts and orders that were
going around. Even when she knew that people were shooting at her, she still
ran. The only question that suddenly popped into her head was, where was she
going to go? It dawned on her Heero was probably still somewhere in the
building. A soldier was shouting out orders as Miroki ran towards him. Shocked
that the enemy was coming towards him, he pointed his gun. A bit too late, she
gave him a quick uppercut and a sock to the stomach. Grabbing the gun, she
continued her trek down the hallways till she reached the part of the base that
Heero was supposed to be.
Meanwhile, Kara had
been in the cell for a few minutes when she woke up. A bit lightheaded she
looked around; it took awhile for her to come to her senses. Reaching into her
inner pocket she pulled out the explosive. Setting it by the door, Kara stepped
back. Outside the door, the soldiers were in for a shock as they were blow
against the wall, door and all. Kara stepped out, grabbed a gun, and started
for the hanger.
Miroki looked at the
door, which read 'Restricted Personal Only'. Shrugging she opened the door, to
hear someone typing away at the computer. Before she could say anything, she
was staring down the end of a gun. With the owner of that gun, being no other
than Heero Yuy. When Heero was satisfied that it was just Miroki and not a
soldier he went back to his work. Closing the door behind her, Miroki waited
for Heero to finish, personally she was too tired to complain or make any
comments at all.
It wasn't hard to
find the hanger, after all the soldiers had the same idea about escaping so
they guarded the place.
"Guarded? This place
is like a fortress," Kara thought.
She wasn't really
happy, after running into more soldiers than she would run into her fellow
students. Kara just wanted to get out and go home. To her relief Trowa was
there, waiting in a corner. Nodding to her, he pointed to a near by carrier. As
she ran towards the carrier, she could hear the yells of surprise as Trowa started
firing on them instead of her. Trowa was right behind her, the minute she
entered to carrier getting ready to take off.
"We have to wait,
Heero should be heading our way soon," Trowa told her.
Kara nods, "He
better hurry, we don't have much time."
Miroki was following
Heero along the hallway. So far they managed to avoid any soldiers, but that
was only because they all seem to be somewhere else.
"Where are we
heading?" Miroki frowned.
"To the hanger,
Trowa should be waiting for us there, is Kara out yet?"
"She's probably with
Trowa, he told her to meet him in the hanger before he knocked her out," Miroki
replied.
Heero gave Miroki a
surprised look.
"Don't ask, it's
similar to what you did to Duo once, only Trowa drugged her instead of punching
her."
"How much do you
girls know about us?" Heero asked.
Miroki pretended to
think for a minute, "You know the most important battles you guys ever had?"
"Yea…"
"All of those, and
then some."
Heero stared at her
again.
"Just trust me on
that one."
"We're here," Heero
stated as they were met by gunfire.
Miroki growled, "I
wondered where all of the soldiers went to."
They managed to make
it to the carrier, without too much trouble. Kara was already taking off the
minute Heero was on board. She grinned at Miroki, while Miroki took a seat.
Miroki looked at both Trowa and Heero, "So, do you guys want the good news or
the bad news first?"
Author's Notes:
Sorry! I know it's been a long time, writer's block, getting sick and school is
not helping. It's April, you know what that means for highschool. Damn, I wish
school were at least this interesting. Read and Review please!
Thank you, thank you,
thank you Female Mewtwo for getting me off my butt and my mind back on track.
She wrote parts of this by the way.
So… Nothing is
boring around here. A bit of normal school life, tricks, and missions to fill
the time. Where are they going to go now and what are they going to do? Next
time on Wing School!
