Sakura Usagi Ran through dozens of hallways until she was outside. Even then she kept up a dashing rate winding through gardens that formed a strange sort of labyrinth. Even as she ran her green eyes shattered until they looked bleak…broken. Her Vibrant hair fell out of the band at the bottom and whirled around her like a mist, a shadow, and a shield. She slips on a patch of dewy grass and falls twisting her ankle. She tries to calm herself using deep breaths but it doesn't help. Her eyes close as a few tears slip out from under her lashes and carve paths down her crystalline face. My fault…it's my fault…why…why…WHY!? As another moment passes she tips back her head and lets out a wild scream full of pain, anguish and complete and utter emptiness.
Trowa's head jerked up at a strange lingering scream that filled the air around him. He turned around to see if Quatre was Allright only to catch the smaller Arabian man as he fell into the tall Latin1 man. The glass, which he held, fell to the floor shattering into thousands of tiny shards. The water, which, was in the glass reflecting the jagged edges. Not showing the danger,…only the strange ethereal beauty.
Duo stopped talking to Heero the smile that had been on his lips barely a moment ago disappearing. An eerie scream filled the air and he looked out to the garden only to see Wufei rapidly disappearing into the inner gardens. With that he looked over to see that his other two friends were Allright and saw Trowa grim expression on his face as he held a limp Quatre. Pushing his way through the crowd Duo a deadly expression on his face raced towards the other couple, Heero at his heels. That's when the screaming began. "The Winner heir is poisoned!" "That man…I was that tall one!" "Trying to abduct him!" "Help him…oh God! Somebody help him!" "The drinks are poisoned!" Duo's expression turned even scarier at the grim turn of events.
After another long moment he got over to the tall man who had the same scary look on his face. "Tro, follow me…I know where we can hide." An eyebrow raised in inquiry was all the answer he got as the two men weaved in and out of the un-orchestrated chaos in the gigantic ballroom. It only took the two of them a moment to get to a small back stair way concealed behind a thick almost un-moveable red curtain. The stairs led up into a passage with a single exit, which led into the hallway where the pilot's bedrooms were located.
Wufei heard the raw animalistic scream that sounded more like a howl from the inner gardens. It took him a moment but he had heard it before, that anguish. No! Is there somebody… while his thoughts were still in process he took off for the inner gardens. The gardens here were less like gardens and more like a labyrinth full of twisting passages and dead-ends they were the perfect hiding spot, which is why he was so frightened. He had heard a scream like that before, but not at that extent.
It was hollow dead scream, and that was what truly frightened the young Chinese man. After the war, which had ended close to 2 years ago he had dated a few women, at the familiar memories he cringed. The last woman he had dated was a vibrant young Japanese woman Heero had introduced him to. Stunning Brown eyes with dark, dark, dark brown hair had made her irresistible to him. She had been filled with an inner pain so great, Wufei shuddered at the memory.
When Noriko Kazoyuki had been 15, two years ago near the end of the war an OZ troop had taken over her hometown. It had been on L3, they had taken it over because the gundam pilots were rumored to be in the area. It had all started off quite reasonably. They had taken over a few vacant house and the greater part of one hotel. Noriko had become infatuated with a young recruit named Ling Patsohuki He was of Japanese/ Chinese ancestry. Hence the odd mixture, of Chinese and Japanese in his name.
They had romanced for a time but it had not been to be. Noriko could not take his explosive temper and anger and so their relationship ended. Ling however didn't see it that way. He began to stalk her, watched her house at night, followed her to work, out with friends. It was when she was coming home from a date with a guy friend that he caught her. She had insisted that she could walk home, it wasn't even a complete block, that had been her mistake.
