"You want to what?!" Lady Une exclaimed in shock before she could regain her controlled expression again.

Treize looked at her for a moment before he answered in a calm voice. "Zechs and I are going to use the new time machine that the scientists built to go back and gather all of the Gundam pilots when they were kids."

"But, why? I mean, we've done alright against them, why go back and destroy them when they were just little kids?" she asked.

"Who said anything about destroying them?" Treize asked mildly. "I admire their spirits and I want them for our side. That way they could go down in history as the brilliant pilots that they are."

Lady Une didn't say anything, but nodded and turned to leave. Treize stopped her before she could get out the door, however.

"Lady Une, just one more moment of your time." He called and she turned around.

"Yes, you Excellency?"

"Zechs and I will be bringing the children to this time to raise. I trust you will help us in this endeavor?"  he asked and she nodded slowly.

"Yes sir."

"Very well, will you please tell Zechs to meet me at the science division in an hour?

"Yes sir."

"Guys, something's wrong." Duo said to the other Gundam pilots. They were all sitting around the living room of their safe house as none of them had any missions. In fact, there had been no missions for almost a month now.

"What do you mean?" Quatre asked, looking away from his game of chess with Trowa.

"I mean, I have a really bad feeling. It's like, I know something is going to happen that I won't be able to stop."

"What are you talking about, Maxwell? It seems that half the time we're bailing you out of trouble." Wu Fei said without looking up from the book he was reading.

"Not true, but I'm serious guys. Something is going on." Duo protested, unaware of how right he was.

"Hn, just go back to your video game." Heero snapped, briefly looking up from his laptop.

At the same time as Duo was voicing his ideas, Zechs and Treize were meeting in front of a shuttle. The shuttle it's self was the time machine while maintaining in perfect working order as a shuttle as well. It was designed to make it easier for them to find the kids and get back as fast as possible.

"Are you ready Zechs?" Treize asked as watched the final preparations.

"As I ever will be, sir." Zechs replied. He had some misgivings about what they were doing, but he would never admit them to Treize. This was a big thing to the general and he didn't want to be the one to bring up something wrong with the plan.

"Well then, shall we go?"
