Joy to My Life
Chapter 4: Dreams and More of the Unexpected.
By: J.B. Santiago
Earlier that day…Remains of Luxemburg Hall, Earth
Alessio felt like throttling whatever got in his way. But he held his temper at bay, barely. First, that damned Wufei Chang was nowhere to be found and these worthless Preventers had no idea where he was. It was hard work probing a human's mind for useful information. It took a considerable amount of energy and none of these miserable humans had the information he needed. He couldn't believe his bad luck. First the fruitless search of said Preventer then the large smoke clouds began to dissipate and were beginning to scatter allowing the sun to break through the clouds. With light affecting his power he teleported back to one of the family homes. They had opened the Subspace portals in all the family homes of the Greater Council since they were the only ones left. He needed to replenish his energy stepping through the portal into Subspace he could sense the old powers swirling around him. He would need to go to the Pool to replenish his power again. With the old powers swirling around him he could use a small amount of that energy; so he teleported to the Pool. If a normal person saw the Pool they would think it was, well a normal swimming pool. However, if they stared at it for a little longer they would see the 'water' change colour; blues, greens, yellows, reds and of course black. The 'water' was really the old powers, contained in a powerful shield that allowed the power to come in but not come out. The only way it could get out was through a Council member. The first people to try the Pool were the Heads of each Council. Then Mario secretly led the rest of the Black Council into the Pool and then…BOOM. Alessio smirked as he remembered Luxemburg Hall going up into flames. He had grown a deep resentment to the other Council members, all of them regarded the Black Council as the thorn in the side. Those pompous, self-righteous bastards got what they deserved. His face hardened, as the Black power flowed through him. He needed to tell his father that he hadn't found those annoying nitwits. He stayed in the middle of the Pool, not wanting to go yet, and get screamed at by his father. He knew exactly what his father would say: 'Can't you do anything RIGHT?!' or 'Your brother would have gotten the job done by now!' or his personal favourite - 'You're a FAILURE to this Family!' The Pool turned completely black, as Alessio's thoughts grew darker. Shaking his head angrily, he stepped out of the Pool and teleported to his father.

"You can't really be considering doing this!" A voice yelled to someone across from them.
"It is our destiny and our right. I will do this and I will do this with or without you." A voice answered back.
Relena could barely see through the haze of green, she couldn't even make out an outline of who was talking. The voices were mumbled and ambiguous, it reminded Relena of listening to a bad frequency, with the static replaced by a constant hissing sound.
"Consider what you're doing! Don't be foolish! The world has changed, you can't possibly expect everything to go back the way it was!"
"We were meant to rule. It is what was prophesied so long ago. You cannot stop destiny and fate."
Relena tried to shift from her current sitting position but she couldn't seem to get her bearings.
"I won't be a part of this! I will stop you, I'll tell rest of them!"
Relena heard a loud 'bang' followed by silence. She gasped as the green haze lifted somewhat to reveal a room with a round table, white marble walls and fern trees in each corner of the room. She knew this place! It was a meeting room at Romefeller Headquarters. She had been in there countless times before discussing policy with Dorothy. She peered at where the two voices were coming from. She could hear them but couldn't see anyone.
"Then I will have to make sure you can't do that, then." The voice from its placid tone turned into a vicious one.
"What…? You – you…we're…But you're my - "Then Relena felt the pain, as the green haze washed over her.
Meanwhile back at Mercy Sisters Hospital…
Heero held Relena's hand, as she watched her breath in and out slowly on the hospital bed. Trowa stood near the far window, giving Heero some privacy. Duo and Hilde had gone to tell the others they had found Relena in a hospital bed, the doctor telling them they had found her unconscious on the floor in another patients room. Her vital signs were normal, it just seemed like she had fainted. The doctor had taken some tests to make sure she was all right. 'Relena, please wake up.' Heero pleaded with his fiancée silently. The only answer was the beep of her heart monitor. Heero placed his other hand over the one already holding Relena; he was about to lean closer when the heart monitor started beeping faster. He could see her heart rate speeding up, the lines jumping erratically.
"Trowa get the doctor!" Heero didn't even need to say it as Trowa had already gone.
Relena's hand gripped Heero's as sweat broke out on her face. The beeping sound seemed to get louder to Heero's ears, as he watched helplessly as Relena began to go into an epileptic fit.
"AAHHH!" Relena screamed, shooting forward straight into Heero's chest and strong embrace. Tears began to soak his shirt, as Relena hugged him tightly to her, burying her face in his shirt.
"What is going on - " The doctor stopped as Heero glared at him, signalling him to get out. Trowa closed the door behind the doctor, standing guard at the door waiting for the others.
"Relena. Look at me." Heero gently tilted her head towards his. "What is it?"
Relena blinked back the tears, still breathing heavily as her heart hadn't calmed down fully yet. "Heero." She said shakily, leaning forward into his arms again.

Dark. Dank. A cell. Catherine's mind groggily noticed her surroundings. She was in a dark, dank small cell. She screamed.
Her head hurt. No that was a lie. It didn't hurt, it was just going through every conceivable torture known to man. Midii turned her throbbing head to the side or as much as she could move it without wanting to chop it off. She saw a single beam of dim light from a crack on the bottom of the door. She was in a small room, it felt more like a large box, as she gradually groped around her surroundings. 'Where was Cathie? Where am I?' she thought as the drums in her head gradually stopped beating. Then she heard it. Screaming. For a few seconds, memories of being in that cell; hearing other Gatekeepers screaming as their lives were taken away, rushed back to her. She stumbled forward slightly, leaning heavily onto the door. 'No…NO…It couldn't be happening again,' her mind became a jumble of thoughts. The screaming continued. Midii pressed her hands against her ears, trying to block out the screaming. She could still hear it. Shut up. Shut up. SHUT UP! She stumbled backwards hitting the back wall and sliding down until she was curled up into a ball, her hands still pressed strongly against her ears. A tear slid down her pale skin. Then another. Then another. She didn't blink them away letting them fall onto the cold ground, as she focused on the single beam of light in front of her.
Alessio walked down the steel stairs. Normally he would have teleported but he needed some time to think by himself. His father had reacted incredibly well to his failure in killing Dorothy. Too well. Then his father tells him to take Steven Locandro and Lucas Di Cartelli to Colony L4 to kidnap the remaining Gatekeepers. He remembered the two women, one the sister of that Gundam pilot. When he thought about it, it sounded so incredibly deranged. First he helps save them from a dark prison only to kidnap them and throw them into another dark prison. He didn't understand why his father wanted them. To him, they were a waste of power. 'Did his father want to use their power? Could they do that? So that bitch Bethany WAS good for something…' He reached one of the levels holding the cells. Even before he opened the door he could hear screaming. Narrowing his eyes he magically opened the door; dim light pouring into the corners of the small cell. The prisoner was the sister of that Gundam pilot. He had never been good with names but he could remember faces and even if her face was streaked with tears and grimed he recognised her.
"Shut up." He growled at her.
Catherine recoiled in fear at the man standing in front of her. She had immediately stopped screaming when she heard him speak. It was Alessio; he seemed taller the way he towered in the doorframe but it was he. She rushed forward, ducking under his arm and out of the room. He hadn't been expecting her to do that nonetheless, he caught her easily by the arm. "Don't be stupid. You can't run away."
"Don't put me back in there. Please don't put me back in there!" She sagged to her knees, her arm still firmly being held by Alessio, as she pointed to the dark cell. She looked up pleading pathetically at him.
Alessio ignored the tiny twinge in his heart at her tear-streaked face. He forced her to stand dragging her towards the door he had come from. "Stop that, butana. You're going to meet some friends of yours." He began to drag her slowly up the stairs, being gentler towards Catherine then he had been to Bethany.
"Please don't put me back in there. Please!" Catherine continued to beg, sniffing awkwardly.
Alessio growled again. "Shut up, ok!" They continued to walk up the stairs, Catherine whimpering every now and then. He gave her a sideways glance and loosened his grip on her arm, "Look. Stop that or I will put you back in that cell."
Catherine breathed in deeply, seemingly inhaling in all her pain. They reached the level where Bethany's lab was situated. He created a chain with Black power and chained Catherine to a metal leg of the panels, forcing her to sit. Giving her one more look before leaving he smirked at her. "Now don't move."
The screaming had stopped a few minutes ago. Midii began to control her irregular breathing again. More minutes passed and she propped herself up on one arm, slowly moving from her foetal position. She used a sleeve to wipe away the tears, mentally berating herself for losing it so quickly but it wasn't a very good scolding. She stood up shakily, leaning her upper body against the back wall, her hands propped onto her knees. She stared at the beam of light, wishing it would grow bigger. Better to be in a small bright room then a small dark room. The light wavered and disappeared as the door opened, allowing a dim light to enter the room. Her instincts kicked in and she rushed forward barely ducking out of a tall, burly man's arms. She ran for the nearest door pushing it open, only to run into another burly man. She gasped as he grabbed her neck and pushed her back against a wall.
"You can't run from me, butana." He grabbed her roughly by her arms, pushing them to her back and clasping them together. Midii tried to manoeuvre out of his grasp but he just tightened his grip on her. He pushed her up the stairs towards the lab.
"Cathie!" Midii ran forward to the bound Catherine, as the man who had held her released her.
"Midii!"
Midii yelped as the temporary happiness of finding Cathie disappeared as she felt chains tighten around her arms and legs and she was bound as well. She glared up defiantly at her captor, recognising him as Alessio. "You bastard! Want do you want from us?!"
Alessio just glared back at her and vanished into a Black shroud. Midii gave a watery smile to Catherine. "Are you ok? Did they hurt you?"
Cathie shook her head slowly, asking Midii the same question. When she received the same answer, Catherine sniffled a little and looked at the ground. Midii gave her a concerned look before examining the room they were in for possible ways of escape. She had seen this place before…
"Hmmm….humm…hmmm," Bethany hummed, since her voice had developed a scratchy sound after hours of singing off-key. She stared into the dark, her eyesight used to it by now. A sudden burst of light, which disappeared as quickly as it came, temporarily blinded her, stopping her rendition of 'On my Own' from Les Miserables. "What the…?"
Her cell door opened to reveal Steven Locandro standing superiorly above her. Not waiting for her to get up he roughly grabbed her elbow and dragged her, half stumbling to stand. "Hey, what's the rush?"
Steven just smirked at her. "We've gotten the energy needed to fuel the time machine."
Bethany perturbed asked, "How can you be smug?! He's going to kill one of you!" She struggled against his grasp, hitting him once in the face before he punched her in the stomach, knocking the wind out of her.
"Stupid girl. You don't know what you're talking about. Get up!"
He grabbed her arm again and dragged her faltering form to her lab.

'Argh! Why can't I do it?!' Dorothy stormed out of a patient's room, followed closely by Quatre.
'Dorothy…you're under too much stress, maybe you should try later.' Quatre replied calmly, gently rubbing her hand, and leading her to a seat.
'Quatre, Relena fainted here for a reason! I'm positive it's because of that patient!' she pointed to the door they had just exited. 'I healed Catherine, why can't I heal that person?' She sighed angrily, her free hand clenched into a fist and shaking at no one in particular.
Quatre unclenched her fist, telling her to relax in his calm manner. 'From that doctor's chart, that person suffered massive internal building, cardiac arrest, broken bones and ruptured organs. Cathie had a small scratch on her leg from a broken chair. You just can't expect to be able to control your powers. You only just acquired them. Dorothy, don't wear yourself out.' He let go of her left hand and ran his fingertips lightly across the side of her face, resting under her chin.
'I'm sorry I'm worrying you Quatre, but Relena just collapsed. Bethany's been kidnapped and the Black Council is trying to take over the world. And what am I doing? Sitting here doing NOTHING about it!' she took his hand from her face, gently squeezed it and stood up about to head back into the patients room.
'Dorothy. Please. Don't.' Dorothy stared into those aquamarine eyes and felt her resolve break ever so slightly when, Duo saved her.
"Ok stop! I don't know what just happened but could you two PLEASE speak out LOUD!" He huffed, giving both Dorothy and Quatre a Shinigami glare.
Dorothy raised her eyebrows at him and glanced at Hilde who was sitting next to him. Hilde gave her a sheepish grin, "Hey, I'm with him on this one. Can you guys speak out loud? It's like you guys can read each other's minds or something…" Hilde looked at their serious faces of the two and then it dawned on her. "…You guys can read each other's minds…That explains a lot…"
Duo gave his wife a quizzical look, "What? Read minds…you guys can read each other's minds? How?"
Quatre sighed and Dorothy nodded before going back into the patient's room, closing the door behind her. Duo tapped his foot impatiently, "Well? C'mon, spill!"
"When Dorothy gave me her blood, the bond we already had when we connected to the Zero System all those years ago, somehow grew a hundred-fold and now we can speak to each other telepathically. She can feel everything I feel and vice-versa. Everything." Quatre stared at the amazed couple.
"Wow." Duo stared wide-eyed at Quatre, a grin slowly spreading on his face, "You feel everything she feels?" Quatre nodded and Duo continued, "So…do you get PMS as well?"
Quatre turned red and didn't reply. Hilde frowned at her husband before lightly whapping the back of his head. "Don't answer that Quatre. Duo no more questions."
Quatre smiled gratefully at Hilde about to thank her when his cell phone started to ring. "Excuse me." He said to the two before walking away from them.
A giggle escaped from Hilde's mouth as Duo pouted at her cutely, still rubbing the back of his head. She was about to speak when they both heard Quatre yell 'what?!' before snapping his phone closed. He glanced at them, his face unreadable before saying, "Something's happened to Cathie and Midii." Then he dashed up towards the staircases, bounding up three steps at a time to where Trowa was guarding Relena's door. The somewhat light mood the couple had been in, vanished; Hilde biting her bottom lip, trying to stop herself from crying and Duo hugging her to him, trying to comfort her.
"When will it stop?" she whispered unsteadily. Duo didn't answer, focusing on the spot just above her head, rocking her from side to side soothingly.
A nurse walked past a tall man with long brown bangs, leaning against the wall next to a patients closed door. Unconsciously, she walked just a little bit faster past him as she continued on her rounds. Trowa stared at the exact same spot he had been staring at for ten minutes already. No one had come up to him and said anything. Heero was with Relena, Sally had gone to help more injured people, Wufei had gone back to ground zero and Quatre and the rest of them were trying to find out why Relena had just collapsed like that. A faint smell of perfume; very similar to that which Cathie wore, made him blink and look up, thinking of his sister and who she was with. 'They're safer on L4,' he reminded himself. Even as he tried to convince himself, his heart gave a painful twinge. Standing up straight, Trowa shook his head, walking towards the elevators; even he needed to be around people at the moment.
"Trowa!" Quatre yelled out, just as Trowa was about to enter a lift.
Trowa gave the breathless man a quizzical look. "What's wrong Quatre?"
His eyes a sorrowful blue, Quatre murmured, "Rashid just called. Cathie and Midii are gone."
Trowa felt numb. The rest of what Quatre was saying didn't reach his ears as he slumped against the wall. His Cathie gone. Again. Midii gone. No. This was not going to happen again. He pushed away from the wall, away from Quatre and ran down the stairs.
Quatre rushed after Trowa but the tall man moved too quickly for him, disappearing down the flights of stairs, away from everyone.

"Cathie?! Midii!?" Bethany gasped in surprise at the two women chained in the lab. Steven pushed her roughly into the lab, making her fall to the floor next to the two. She didn't notice, still too flabbergasted at the sight in front of her.
"I see you've seen my little present for you." Mario appeared to the side of the three, smirking condescendingly at them.
The awful truth dawned on Bethany, as her heart tightened at the sight of Cathie and Midii reduced to painful tears. She shook her head. "Mario, no. NO!"
The smirk never left his face as he grabbed a handful of Bethany's pale hair, enjoying the wince that crossed her face and brought her face close to his. "You wanted power AND soul. These," he pointed to Midii and Catherine, "are Gatekeepers. They have the power AND their souls, I don't mind sacrificing." He pushed Bethany's face away from his, letting go of her hair.
Bethany bit back the tears and swallowed before speaking. "Even with them, you're still short of one person! Are you really willing to kill one of your own?!"
His smile just got wider. "Build the machine. I will have your precious energy." With that he vanished, leaving the three very shocked people behind.
"He's insane…" Bethany murmured to herself, staring at the afterimage Mario left behind.
"Bethany…Bethany, what is going on?" Midii steadied her voice as she twisted forwards, trying to look at Bethany directly. She hadn't liked one bit of what that man had been saying. '…I don't mind sacrificing…'
Ignoring the question, Bethany crawled over to them, muttering incoherently, under her breath. She examined the chains imprisoning Catherine and Midii. "Damn magical chains! I can't get you out of those, unless one of those bastards takes them off."
"Bethany, what is going on?" Midii repeated her question more forcefully.
"You really don't want to know." Bethany cautiously stood up, trying not to break down at the enormity of the situation she was in.
"Tell us, Bethany." Fiery blue eyes met pale jade ones. Bethany turned away first. Walking to her control panel, she pressed a few keys and all the screens in the room showed the same thing.
Graphs and a strange dark matter that looked like a DNA model flashed on the screens. Turning back to the questioning looks of Midii and Catherine, Bethany pointed to the screens. "That is the old power. It is what will power the time machine."
"But we don't have the old powers, do we?" Catherine asked, wiping away a few tears that stubbornly rolled down her face.
"On the contrary, Cathie. A Gatekeeper has the old power in them. That's why 24 of you could open the portal to the Darkness but…" Bethany trailed off, clasping her hands together in front of her and looking anywhere but at the two women.
"…But the only way to get that power is to kill us." Midii finished for her. A nod confirmed her fears.
"No. NO!" The tears began to freely flow down Catherine's face again. "Why can't they just stop?"
No answer came from either women, the only sound heard over the continuous beeping of instruments, was the sounds of crying.

Again. It had happened again. He had promised her to never let anything hurt her again. He had agreed to send her far away. Why did he think that would be a good idea? He had sent his sister away from him with a person he couldn't trust. Why did he do that? He kept running, never breaking stride. But he couldn't blame her. Midii. His heart was jumping erratically now. He had been running non-stop since the hospital. He promised her he would protect her. Cathie. His heart was burning now but he continued to run. They were both gone now because he couldn't keep his promise. He ran into someone and kept going not bothering to apologise. Voices called out his name, accusingly. He stumbled forward on debris. He had run all the way from the hospital to what was left of Luxemburg Hall. He stood on the outer perimeter of the grounds; small fires still burned and night blanketed the city, the wind had picked up and was throwing debris and dust every which way. Trowa pretended the tears streaming down his face was because of the dust.
"Hey! Trowa!" The voice behind him was forceful and annoyed.
Crudely wiping away the tears with his sleeve, Trowa advanced forward away from the voice, away from everyone. An arm grabbed onto his elbow, forcing him to turn.
Wufei couldn't hide his surprise at seeing the former pilot of HeavyArms in tears. When he had nearly been bowled over by someone running, he had all been ready to employ some 'justice' but after running after the man who had knocked him over, he realised it was Trowa. His anger had diminished greatly, wondering more what the hell Trowa was doing here and in such a rush. Now all Wufei wanted to do was to get out of this uncomfortable situation and he did it in perfect Wufei fashion. He ignored the obvious.
"There's trouble, isn't there? That's why you're here, right?"
Trowa just nodded and Wufei grunted, motioning to a Preventer truck to come over. "Lets go then."
The trip back was a silent one; Trowa staring sullenly out the window and Wufei concentrating on not sweating at the tension that seeped from the man sitting next to him. They reached the elevators in the same silence, the trip up the same. As Wufei stepped out on the floor Relena was on, Trowa spoke softly.
"Cathie and Midii have been kidnapped."
Wufei nodded at the tall man. What could he say that didn't sound dubious? "We'll find them."
Trowa nodded back, both of them walking to Relena's room. No 'thank yous' were heard but the tension had evaporated.

"Alessio."
The man bowed respectively at his father. "Yes, father?"
"Come with me."
Alessio nodded and trailed after his father, as he teleported deeper into the fortress. They reached the lowest level of the fortress, about five levels below where the prison cells were. He took in his surroundings. It was pitch black and the Black power was sucking up the environment, making him feel stronger but there was an uneasy feeling developing inside of him. "Father, why are we here?"
Mario turned to his son and spread his arms out like an eagle. "We are here because of this." With that the level suddenly filled with power. Gold power. Alessio fell to his knee as the Gold power – the power that could neutralise the Black power overcame him. The Black power in him, began to fade as he realised the power he had been unconsciously taking in just a few moments ago had traces of Gold power in them.
He fell heavily onto his hands, trying desperately to keep his head up. "Fa-father…Why?"
Mario walked up to his son and stepped on his hand, causing him to fall and head-butt the floor. A hollow laugh came from him. "My dear son," he sneered, kicking Alessio in the chest, sending him flying across the room and landing with a sickening thud. "You will finally be useful to me." He motioned at the glowing power of Gold. "Thank your 'uncle' Giovanni for making you as weak as a mongrel. The poor bastard actually believed my 'you need to do this for the better of humanity' spiel." Another laugh, thundered around the room.
Alessio tried to get up but the Gold power weighed down on him like a tonne of concrete. He stared pathetically up at his father. "But-but, the…power should be…affecting…you too!"
Mario just laughed again. "Yes. Yes it should." Still laughing, he stepped away from Alessio and jerked suddenly.
"The end is near." Then Mario disappeared.
Alessio stared in horror at what he had just seen. The Darkness. The Darkness was inside his father. Then the Gold power seeped into his body and soul, unconsciousness welcoming him.

'You can't really be considering doing this!' The dream kept repeating itself over and over in Relena's mind, as she numbly took in the people around her. Sitting to her right was Heero gratefully still holding her hand. Hilde and Duo stood to her left, an expression of relief etched on their faces. Sally was standing at the foot of the hospital bed, quickly reading her chart. She must have looked dreadful – she felt dreadful. Her eyes were a puffy red while her face was ashen and she trembled every now and then. She barely paid attention to what her friends was saying, only hearing tidbits of the conversation. Dorothy was in the room she had fainted in, Quatre was talking quietly to Trowa and Wufei had gone to call for more security around the hospital. Duo said something to her and by the look of his face, he had probably asked her a question.
"Uhh…yeah, Duo. I agree." Relena smiled feebly as she tried to push away the dream.
Duo just laughed and said, "Finally someone who agrees with me that Oreos can be mined on Mars."
She would have blushed and laughed but the dream kept repeating itself and she could only manage a small smile. Detecting Relena's distracted state, Heero said pointedly, "Relena needs to rest."
She was about to protest when Hilde nodded in agreement. "Rel you take it easy ok? We'll be right here if you need anything." She half-dragged Duo to the door, with him doing an elaborate good-bye on the way.
Sally gave her a sisterly smile and winked at her. "Just rest, Relena." With that she closed the door behind her and left the couple alone.
"Relena, tell me what is bothering you." Heero paused before adding 'please.'
Pulling on Heero's hand, until she had him in an embrace, she shivered involuntarily as she whispered, "Dreams." Closing her eyes, the safeness she felt in Heero's eyes vanished as she fell asleep…
- Unknown Place – Unknown Time -
"You can't really be considering doing this!" The voice yelled again. Relena couldn't tell if it was familiar because she had heard that voice before or if it was because this dream kept repeating itself in her mind.
"It is our destiny and our right. I will do this and I will do this with or without you." The voice answered back again. The voices were becoming more familiar sounding. There was no green haze and the room WAS a meeting room at Romefeller Headquarters! Relena walked steadily around the room, every step she took, brought her closer to the voices. They were getting louder and clearer.
"Consider what you're doing! Don't be foolish! The world has changed, you can't possibly expect everything to go back the way it was!"
"We were meant to rule. It is what was prophesied so long ago. You cannot stop destiny and fate." Relena was so close she could feel it. The green haze filled the room suddenly and she couldn't move forward anymore.
"I won't be a part of this! I will stop you, I'll tell rest of them!"
Concentrating so hard on the voices that sweat beads were lazily rolling down the side of her face, the green haze that was holding her still began to evaporate. Not even the loud 'bang' stopped her from concentrating on the voices. Taking one step forward she was standing in front of two people who were staring at each other. She could tell they were people but their faces she still couldn't see. They didn't acknowledge her existence and she doubted they knew she was standing there.
"Then I will have to make sure you can't do that, then."
"What…? You – you…we're…But you're my - "Then Relena saw a fortress surrounded by tall tree stumps, the green power growing inside her as she reached out, her fingers aching to touch the power…and the green haze overwhelmed her again sending her into a dreamless slumber.
