Sitting in my new dorm room at the boarding school I was dressed in the guy uniform, not the girl dresses; I couldn't stand them, being the huge tomboy that I was, a sword at my hip that I had recently picked up and now always wore. For some reason I felt connected to it, like it was a part of me somehow.

I had only been at this school for a couple of days and was already settled into my room and the school, even if I didn't fit in with the people. But I went down to lunch carrying a book with me called "Gone With The Wind," sitting alone on a balcony, eating and reading. I could hear voices of girls behind me, making fun of me and creating rumors, something they were doing on purpose because I was sitting there. Closing my book, done eating, I stood and turned, my hand resting lightly on the hilt of my sword. "You shouldn't talk about those you know nothing about," I warned, walking away and off to my fencing class.

I placed my sword against the wall (they wouldn't allow me to use it) and waited while two new students where introduced. It was Duo and Trowa, which in a way made me upset but I left them alone, pairing up with the best fencer in the school and beating him effortlessly. At the end of class, he had the gaul to threaten me as I was picking up my sword. Unsheathing it, I pointed its tip towards his face, saying in a monotone, "I am a better fencer than you; if you work at it, you could be as good as me but, until then, I don't suggest threatening me." Trowa then walked over and made me lower my sword and put it away. "Leave me along; I am on a mission here, and I don't want you to mess it up," I snapped before walking away.

I then made my way to the stables after changing into a pair of gym shorts (from another school) and a T-shirt, getting out a white horse and taking it out of the stables and into a ring. The class was gathering in the ring and warming up their horses; I was the only one not in horse back riding clothes. All of them looked at me, snickering and laughing at my expense while I ignored them and stood up on the horse; I had been riding bare back with this horse and I knew exactly what I was doing, boarding it at a stable back in Stafford and then sending it here when I knew that I would be coming.

I clicked my tongue and the horse went into a trot; I balanced myself on the back of him and did a front flip, landing onto the horse while everyone turned their heads in amazement though it was nothing to me. (I was glad that Trowa wasn't in this class with me because he'd correct my form.) I then went into a series of front and back flips before Duo came up to the horse; I sighed: Duo would be just as bad as Trowa.

When the teacher came in later I sat down on my horse, grabbing its reins and riding over to the rest of the group, Duo trotting beside me and whispering, "Show off." even as I eyed him innocently. It was fun that I could also joke around with him; I guess he wasn't so bad.

The teacher began to talk, though I didn't really listen. It went somewhere along the lines of "Today we are going to work on jumps and, in each forward round, the jumps will get higher. Whoever can get the highest will have their names on the morning announcements, so let's get started everyone." That was when we lined up in a row, everyone but me and Duo wanting to win. I was actually glad that Duo was here, it would make things a little less boring.

When I reached the first jump, which was actually just a pole lying on the ground, I stood on my horse and did a handstand, clucking my tongue to make him go into a trot and, as he jumped the pole, I flipped off him to land back onto his back as his hooves hit the ground, quite pleased.

Until the teacher called me over.

Trotting over cautiously, eying Duo's smirking face, I looked at the teacher as I approached her. "Yes, ma'am?" I said politely.

"You are not to be doing such tricks on horses, young lady," she said strictly, making me all the more serious.

"Look, it's the only way I can ride well! I can much more dangerous ones if you want."

"You keep it up and see what happens."

"But, ma'am," spoke up Duo, "if it's the way she rides, it's the way she rides."

Some of the others agreed because watching me ride was the only thing they liked me to do; they enjoyed watching me ride, while they didn't exactly like me. So the teacher let me go with a heavy sigh and the promise that, if I fell, it would not be the school's fault, to which I agreed. Smirking, I made my way back in line.

After a couple of jumps there were only two people left: me and some other guy. We both made it over the next jump fine but, after that, only I cleared it so the teacher let me go one higher alone. Standing on top of my horse, planning just what to do on the next jump, I clicked my tongue, urging my horse to pick up speed. Balancing, the horse jumped, up and over, but my balance slipped body falling to the side as my eyes widened and I fell hard, my head bashed against the ground, rendering me unconscious.

Next time I woke up, I was on the ground.

"Huh.... What happened?" I asked, feeling the painful lump on the side of my head, trying to keep things into focus.

"You hit your head when you fell off your horse," said a guy with long, braider hair.

"What horse?" I asked, not remembering anything. No name, nothing! Maybe that braided boy seemed familiar but I just couldn't tell if I knew him or not exactly....

"Lori?" he questioned, somewhat hesitantly.

"Who's Lori?"

"You are." Turning, he then talked to some lady who was the oldest in the rest of the group huddled around me as I lay dazed on the ground. Looking back at me, he extended an arm and helped me from the ground, walking the two of us back to some building.

"Where are we going?" I asked.

"To meet up with some friends of ours.... By the way, I'm Duo."

Duo then took me to a motorcycle and handed me a helmet as I got on, him sitting in front of me. Leaning my head to the side, I read the blue words "Harley Davidson" that were printed on the motorcycle before we sped off, riding down the highway for a little while before getting off and heading down some winding back roads. He finally stopped at a house and got off, moving as though he were heading to the house. I got off too; feeling nervous for some reason as I took off the helmet and followed him inside

Duo took me into a living room where four other sat. One had blonde hair and kind blue eyes while another wore dark brown hair that covered an eye, making him look stern and quiet; he also was taller than the others. The third guy looked Chinese and was dressed in what I took to be a martial artist's clothing with snapping black eyes and hair of the same color pulled back into a small ponytail. The last boy looked very strong in mind and body; he was typing furiously on a laptop; I wasn't sure what he was doing.

And all of this.... All of them seemed familiar and yet... I couldn't place them. They seemed so familiar and alien at the same time; it made my head hurt. I winced I was trying to remember if I knew them and it hurt my head. They acted as if I wasn't there as if this guy, Duo, and me hadn't even walked in. I didn't understand and didn't try to. "Uh.uh guys we have a uh slight problem" said Duo scratching the back of his head and at this everyone looked up.

"And what would that be you braided baka" The Chinese guy with a black small ponytail asked. "Lori hit her head," he sighed "and she can't remember anything." No one said a word I felt almost out of place standing there. The guy typing on his laptop had even stopped to look up at me. Duo sat down in a chair with a sigh I stood there I felt frozen, frozen in place I couldn't bring myself to say anything I didn't even know what to do so I stayed still. A few moments later a kid somewhat shorter then me with curly hair and hazel eyes, walked in and looked up at me. "Hey," she sat down among the rest of the figures. I didn't speak I look down at the ground crossing my arms I leaned against a wall I wasn't going to say anything unless I had to. "Uh Xamick," Said the blonde with kind blue eyes "Lori doesn't know who you are," "What do you mean" she looked to the blonde questioningly. "She hit her head and lost her memory" the guy replied. "That's great just great" "Can someone tell me what's going on I still don't have a clue" I said in what I thought to be a normal tone. "You stupid onna you're a Gundam pilot, were Gundam pilots to. And this onna over here," points to the one with hazel eyes "is your best friend and fellow comrade Xamick, I'm Wufei, the blonde haired guy is Quatre, the one on the laptop is Heero, you've already met the braided baka Duo, and the last of us is Trowa does that help any onna" the black haired guy said. "What does onna mean" I asked slightly confused. "You don't want to know," said the other girl Xamick. I looked out a nearby window it was bright and sunny out my mind began to wonder off when someone spoke nearly startling me. "What should we do about her?" whispered Wufei to the others. "We should help her try to remember who she is" said Quatre. I could begin to tell who was who by their voices I ignored them even though they were talking about me. I felt unwanted and out of place. Something shook the house and there was an explosion blowing me back I became dazed and felt a lot of pain surge through my body and head. Somehow I felt as if I had, had it happen before as if I had gone through this many times before. "Are you ok?" asked Duo as he came over giving me a hand up. "Yeah fine I think" but as I stood up I passed out and went into a flash back. ~*~ Begin Flash Back~*~ I was tied to a chair, a guy wearing a mask he had extremely long blonde hair and wore some sort of military uniform that was red he looked high in ranking he looked mad. "Where are they?!" he yelled at me. "I don't know" I replied harshly to the man and he hit me across the face. I had been tied to the chair by wires and he tightened them making me wince in pain my arms began to bleed. "Now where are they?" he asked yelling at me. "I don't know and even if I did why would I tell you" I yelled back. He kicked me in the stomach throwing me and the chair against a wall ~*~ End Flash Back ~*~ I woke up sitting straight up I was drenched in a cold sweat. I was lying in a bed under covers that had been pulled neatly over me the room was completely dark I looked around and saw no one I was alone. I got up and found the door I opened it into a bright hallway it took me almost no effort to move I could float rather then walk. I must be in space I thought to myself. I went down the hallway to a door the said lounge I opened the door to find the 6 people who I had learned the names of. "So your finally awake" said Quatre politely. I nodded slightly I sat down on a chair in the room. "You look a little pale onna," said Wufei. "I'll be fine," I whispered not caring I was thinking about my dream. An eerie silence fell over the room then I spoke up not looking up at any of them. "Did I ever get beaten up by some guy with a mask and really long blonde hair," No one answered so I looked up "Please answer me," I said. "Its happened to you a couple times" Said Heero looking up from where he had been typing on his laptop "Why do you ask?" "Because I had a dream, more of a nightmare," I said looking back down "So I was just wondering if it had been real or not" "It was probably a flash back." Said Trowa who I had not heard talk before. I just nodded in agreement. "So where are we?" "On a space ship headed to L2" said Duo happily. I sat there thinking making my brainwork trying to remember not caring how bad it made my head hurt. Xamick put a small tray of food and a bottle of water in front of me "You should eat" I pushed the food away "I'm not hungry" I said she shrugged and took it away. I kept thinking hard about the dream and my past and it made my head hurt but I kept trying to remember. I spaced out after awhile. Then someone made me jumped when they put tow pills in front of me. "I have a feeling you need this Tylenol more then me" said Duo. I smirked and swallowed them dry. "Thanks I did need those a lot" I said and smiled up at him. Heero handed me his laptop "read that it might help jog your memory" was all he said I took it and began reading it trying to absorb and think about every piece of it trying to remember. I kept reading for a good while then i began to feel tired. "I think i'd liek to rest i'm tired" I said Quatre shwoed me to a room adn i fell asleep almost immeidtly. I was awaken suddeny by a loud boom which i took to be an explosion of some kind. I walked out of my room people were running everywhere I was confused i managed to find heero. "Heero whats gonig on" I asked

"Go back to your room and wait there were under attack" He said in his usual monotone voice. "Is there anything I can do" I ask. "No just go back to your room and stay out of the way" he said coldly. I nodded adn went back to my room feeling helpless and lost once again. All of a sudden there was a huge explaosion that went through into my room i wasn't hurt despite the fact i was half burried under metal sheats and could hardly breathe form lack of air on the space craft or atleast where I was. I began to feel dizzy everything began to get black then completly black. I passed out. I woke up in a hospital straped down to where I was. I could remember again but it wouldn't do me any good becasue I knew i was on an enemy base. They had me tied to the bed with restraints so icoudln't escape they knew i had awoken and they took me to an interigation room where Zechs was. I was ited to a chair. "So where are they" he asks. "how should I know" "Where are they" silence Hits her "Where are they?!" he repeated. Silence. "Where are they?!" He beats me until i Am almost unconcious then has me cahined up in a cell I felt weak by now and couldn't even hold my head up. A guard comes in with a tray of food. "Are you going to be a good little girl" he asks. "Only in your dreams" I say coldly and spit at him. he uppercut me making me feel even weaker. I all of a sudden heard guns being fired and sirens going off in the distant. The gundam pilots came in and I looked up at them. "Trowa came adn undid my bindings i coudl hardly stay in the sitting postion I was in ithout the shackles. "Can you walk?" asked trowa. I nodded yes but as i tried to stand i collapsed but trowa caught me I heard heero mumble something to him adn he nodded. Trowa threw me over his shoulder like some life size doll. His shoulder was in my stomach but I didn't care i was to wseak adn to tired to care about anything. We got out of the base after a good while of fighting our way out. We went back to where the gundams were stored in some woods i sat up against a tree. I hoped to be left alone but Quatre came over adn said my head was cut and bandaged it for me. I gave him my thanks and we all settled down everyone thinking about thier own things it was late at night and i let myself drift off into space. I knew they had figured out I was back to normal asue i didn't ask what had been gonig on or where I had owken up in. I woke up in the morning to someone shaking me i brushed them off trying to go back to sleep i felt like i was at home in my own bed. "Lori you gotta get up" sai someone i finally opened my eyes adn noticed 5 pairs of eyes staring down at me. "Huh what i'm up i'm up" I said tiredly rubbing my eyes awake making everything go from blury to clear. "come on we have to go" said duo. "Go where" I asked still half asleep. "We have a mission onna" said Wufei. "Wufei you know better thne to call me...oh forget it I'm to tired to argue with you" I said. I leaned back against a tree adn then sighed standing up weakly. "I don't know if you should be standing alot much less walking adn running" said Quatre. "Oh no I am not being carried forget it" I said. We began to walk through the wods we coudln't run becasue of me I felt bad about it but there wqas nothing i could say. "So what were you doing at Relena's boareding school?" asked Duo. "Umm don't worry about it." I said. "Come on tell us" he said. "Just forget it already" I said. "Tell us ppllleeeaasseee" begged Duo. I rolled my eyes and looked at heero "Only if he promises not to get mad at me" I said. "Hn" "I'll take that as a yes" I said "I was gong to kill relena" I said adn Heero shot his famous death glare at me. "What?! She was getting on my nerves!" I said and he pulled out his gun on me. I put my hands in the air swalloing hard, I knew he was serious wether i was friend or foe he would shoot me without a second thought. no one moved ro said a word. heero had already been mad adn now i mad him madder now he would atke his anger out on me. My eyes had become wide with fear. My beathes were slow adn deep. I kept my eyes locked with his. I could tell he was holding his gun tigtly his finger on the trigger ready to pull it the safety off. I closed my eyes ready to be shot in the chest or head. I hear the shot ring thorugh the air my eyes popped open and then I saw I saw everything in my lfie pass before my eyes then I saw what was happening I didn't understand.
