Is This Called Destiny
Chapter Four
Author: Jumping Jellybeans
Disclaimers: I don't own Sailor Moon or Gundam Wing
Author's Notes: Well, there's really not much to say. But, to all of the people who asked if Usagi has a romantic relationship with Hiiro, the answer is no. And to all of you people who wanted to know if there is a triangle between Duo, Usagi, and Hiiro, the answer is also no. Even though I do read triangles and 1x2 relationships, I'm not comfortable writing them.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Usagi frowned as someone knocked on her apartment door for the umpteenth time since she had gotten back. She sighed softly, hadn't she told that creepy guy to leave her alone? Muttering curses under her breath, she got up and opened the door, ready to give that guy a piece of her mind.
"Look here, mister, I don't know who you think you are, but I'm tired of answering this damn door and listen to you babbling about having a date with you." Usagi snapped, "I've told you a hundred times that I've got a boyfriend already AND I am not interested in starting a relationship with you, got it?"
"Uh, Usa, if I came at a bad time, I can always leave." the person in front of her said cautiously, backing away slightly.
Usagi looked up and caught sight of Duo trying to slip away, he froze, however, when he felt her gaze on him, "Duo?" she turned crimson realizing what she had just said, "Gomen nasai, I didn't mean...I thought you...never mind..."
Duo watched his girlfriend stumble over her words and decided to spare her the embarrassment of explaining everything, "I was wondering if I could stay here for the night...if it's not a problem." he added quickly, "I just got into this big fight with Hiiro, and since it's snowing outside, I didn't really feel like sleeping in my car and freezing to death, so..."
"Is that all?" Usagi questioned stepping aside so he could enter his apartment, "You looked like something really big was on your mind."
Duo winced inwardly, he had been trying to picture her as a cold-blooded assassin, it hadn't turned out quite right. Realizing that she was waiting for him to enter, he quickly stepped in and changed the subject.
"So, who were you expecting?" Duo asked curiously as he studied his surroundings.
"Some guy I met an hour ago, I think his name's like Kivardi or something." Usagi bit her bottom lip, "He was dressed kinda funny, like some sort of soldier or top-ranking general."
This caught Duo's attention, "Describe him for me." he said, turning to face her.
"Um, I guess you could say he's around twenty. He's tall with black hair and emerald green eyes. I think he was wearing a dark gray uniform with a small black badge right about here." Usagi reached over and poked Duo in the chest.
"Can you describe the badge?" Duo asked, his eyes were a shade darker than usual.
"I guess there was like a red cross in the middle, splitting the badge into four sections. I think there was a small rose in the upper right-hand corner, I'm not sure though." Usagi looked at him worriedly, "Is something wrong?"
"Hai. May I use your phone?" Duo asked softly.
"Hai, demo, the screen's not working properly so you'll just have to make do." Usagi cleared away a pile of paper covering the vid-phone.
Duo picked up the phone and dialed Quatre's number, he heard a few rings before someone picked up.
"You have reached the Winner residence, Quatre speaking." a voice came over the phone.
"It's Duo, I need you guys to do some research for me." Duo glanced at Usagi who was watching curiously.
"Research? What kind of research?" Quatre's voice was lined with worry.
"About a commander. Top-ranking." Duo had decided not to tell Usagi who this top-ranking commander might work for, "His name's around something like Kivardi. He's tall with dark brown hair and emerald green eyes. Maybe around twenty."
"You don't think they've found us already?" Quatre asked.
"I don't know." Duo answered quietly, hanging up the phone.
Usagi frowned slightly as Duo hung up the phone, he had talked so quietly that she could barely make out his mumbles. She looked at him and he fidgeted uncomfortably under her gaze.
"Usa..." he started, clearly groping for some sort of explanation.
"Iie, D-chan." Usagi cut him off, "You don't have to tell me if you really don't want to, demo promise me you will someday?"
Duo nodded silently, thanking the lucky gods that Usagi was his girlfriend. Usagi smiled brightly and pecked him on the cheek before darting away, giggling. Duo gave her a minute head-start before chasing after her.
*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*
Usagi felt someone shaking her shoulders roughly, forcing her to wake up. She cracked open one eye and the first thing she noticed was that it was around midnight. When the person noticed that she was finally awake, he let go of her shoulders and turned the bedside lamp on.
"Duo..." Usagi complained sleepily as her sleep-filled eyes focused on him.
"Usa, it's important." Duo cut her off gently, he took her hand and led her out of the bedroom.
Usagi blinked at the sight before her, all of Duo's housemates were seated around her kitchen table. She started hesitantly after Duo. Noticing that Duo avoided Hiiro, she decided that they still hadn't made up.
"Usagi, we need you to tell us if this is the guy who's been harassing you." Quatre pushed a sheet of paper towards her.
Usagi looked at Duo, who nodded in an assuring way, before studying the paper in front of her. Usagi looked at the picture twice, before slowly nodding. Her results from the five boys varied. In fact, she was quite impressed by Duo's extensive 'vocabulary'.
"Is something wrong?" Usagi asked worriedly.
"Well, um, there's something we haven't exactly told you..." Quatre avoided her eyes.
"Usa-chan..." Duo cringed inwardly, ready for anything that Usagi might throw at him, "...we're Gundam pilots..."
Usagi was completely and utterly shocked. Of course, she should have known this, considering the fact that all of their personal bedrooms, in Quatre's mansion, we're covered in pictures of Gundams. Next, Quatre and the others had come back with no supplies when they had disappeared the other day. And now, she was willing to bet that the mysterious storage area stored not only emergency supplies, but their Gundams as well.
The next thing that happened, was completely unexpected, "Duo no baka!!" Usagi shrieked, slapping him on the face, "Why didn't you tell me before?!?!"
"Calm down, Usagi..." Quatre was cut off by Usagi's furious eyes.
"You stay out of this! I'll punish you later!!" Usagi snapped before turning back to Duo.
Quatre wished that he could sink through the floor as Usagi chased after the frantic Duo. He was thankful for the sound proof walls that kept neighbors from waking up. Finally, thirty minutes later, Usagi calmed down. By now, Duo was sporting a few bruises.
"You're leaving aren't you, Duo?" Usagi whispered at last, turning away from him.
"Usa-chan..." Duo started forward but Usagi pushed him away.
"Iie, leave me alone." she snapped harshly, "Just go away and leave me alone!"
She reentered her bedroom and slammed the door in his face. Seconds later, she locked the door. Duo turned around slowly and faced the other Gundam pilots silently.
"You should never had gotten yourself involved with a weak onna." Wufei commented.
"I heard that, Wufei Chang!" Usagi's shaky voice rang through the apartment.
*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*
Usagi stepped out of the bathroom an hour later, all evidence of tears were gone from her face. She moved around her room quickly packing an overnight bag along with a pad of paper, colored pencils, and an eraser. Scribbling a short letter, she placed it in an envelope, reminding herself to mail it to her boss later. Silently, she pushed open the window in her room and dropped to the street a floor below her.
It was drizzling slightly but Usagi refused to go back. She slipped into an alleyway and disappeared into the darkness. Unknown to her, a person followed her silently, side-stepping the puddles that had begun to form.
*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*
Duo woke up abruptly, cursing himself for dozing off. He glanced at the rest of the pilots, Quatre, Wufei, and Trowa had dozed off, Hiiro was still awake and alert. Grumbling, he pulled out a slim packet of lock picks and pulled one out. A few minutes later, the lock to Usagi's door popped open and he opened it cautiously. When no response came from the room, Duo entered it, immediately, he spotted the open window, where the rain was pouring in from outside.
"Kuso!" Duo immediately realized what had happened about twenty minutes ago, he dashed out of her room and grabbed his jacket from its place on Usagi's sofa.
"Duo?" Quatre sat up when Duo bumped into him, "Where you going?"
"After Usagi." Duo answered grimly, reentering Usagi's room and hopping out of the open window.
He frowned when he landed silently on the street, the rain had washed away all trace of her. The Usagi he knew would try to throw him off of her track, but he could guess that she had taken the alleyway. After all, when they had been in the Maxwell Church, he had taken her on tours of the streets on Colony L2. So he knew she had some street smarts in her whether she remembered them or not.
*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*
Usagi froze, behind her, she could hear someone stop walking. When she stepped forward, someone walked forward also. It couldn't be Duo, he had been outside of her room when she had left. It had to be someone else who was following her. She began to run from whoever it was, for some reason, she felt panicked and frightened.
A person smiled in the shadows, so she knew he was there. It didn't matter now, she was alone, there was no one there to protect her now. She was his. Smirking, he picked up his pace and started after her.
Usagi heard the person behind her start running, she made a sharp right turn into another alley. She skidded to a stop when she met a dead end. She whirled around while fumbling around in her purse for something. She relaxed slightly when she felt the cool metal of the gun in there. The person had stopped in front of the alleyway, she could see him smirking in the dim light. She pulled out her gun and aimed it at him.
"Hello, Usagi-chan." the man smiled, "Fancy meeting you here."
"Don't you dare call me that you, baka yaro! I can have you sued for stalking me!" Usagi clicked the safety off of her gun.
"Oh, are you going to shoot me now?" he smirked, "Why don't you just come along with me like a good little girl?"
"Not on your life, Kivardi!" Usagi fired, hitting him in the arm.
Kivardi glared at Usagi who, by now, was soaked to the skin. He only needed to wait a little longer before she would collapse, it was taking all her strength just to stand up and yell at him.
*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*
Duo's head shot up when he heard the sound of a gun being fired. His first sign that Usagi was still out hear in this pouring rain. He started to run towards the sound, drawing out his gun along the way.
*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*
Kivardi clutched his arm as Usagi glared at him, he could see her starting to shiver. No one could stay out in this freezing rain for long without catching pneumonia, if they didn't have a jacket.
Usagi knew he was just waiting for her to collapse. She was numb with cold, her lips were beginning to turn blue. Pushing away a wave of dizziness, she fired again, hitting him again on his right arm. Her breathing was coming in ragged gasps and she could feel darkness just at the edge of her mind, ready to take over.
She shook her head, it was getting harder and harder to remain focused. The darkness had started taking over her mind. She fired again, a shot that went wild, before she collapsed on the ground and blacked out.
*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*
Duo arrived in time to see Usagi collapse on the ground and Kivardi move forward. His eyes narrowed and he clicked the safety off of his gun.
"Get away from her, Kivardi." he growled.
Kivardi stopped and turned around, "Pilot 02." he smirked as Duo stiffened, "Now you wouldn't want your precious little girlfriend find out about that would you?"
"She already knows, Kivardi. Now get away from her before I shoot." Duo's voice was cold.
For a moment, Kivardi Chiba felt fear, his only weapon against Usagi's boyfriend had disappeared, he regained his posture quickly, "You're bluffing, 02."
Duo fired, hitting him in his right arm...again, "I told you to get away from her."
"Kuso! What is it with you people and shooting the right arm!?" Kivardi roared, clutching his arm in pain.
"Unless you want me to shoot you again, Mr. Chiba, I suggest you get away from her, now." Duo glared at him.
"I'll be back, Maxwell. Trust me." Kivardi growled walking out of the alley, he attempted to draw a gun but his arm hurt too much to allow him to.
Duo watched Kivardi disappear before rushing to Usagi's side. He picked her up and he could feel her shivering. Cursing under his breath, he hurried her back to her apartment complex.
