Five Times Five: Message
Makoto was already planning the details of all the things she was going to do to Minako when she saw her again. She was out in the fitness room pretending that the punching bag (or whatever you call those long things that hang on the ceiling.) was Minako. She thought over and over again all the terrible torture she would release upon Minako for tattling to the colonies about OZ's plan. And she well knew that OZ was no longer their main target. The spies had gotten the information they had needed and they had failed to get them before they could get back to OZ. They were the colonies main target now. And Minako was the spies. Course the colonies had inflicted extra protection on Minako or put her in one of those weak little witness protection programs they have on earth. I didn't matter. Any soldier with half a mind would know that Ami could track her down in a milli-second, no problem.
But something was bothering Makoto. And it wasn't just Minako. It was about the battle and the torment of seeing the gundam pilots again. Only now they were in battle, and not just being friendly. She couldn't imagine fighting against Trowa. Whom was the gundam pilot given to her. Usagi had the honar of taking on both Duo and Heero at once. OZ knew it was either Usagi or Rei. And Rei already had Wufei to deal with, and that alter-egoed pilot was enough to knock out ten spies with Makoto's skill. It was Usagi for sure. Duo would be no problem for her. It was like having the big man himself in battle along with a little fluffy bunny. But that wasn't what Makoto was worried about. Going against Trowa ment going aganist the only friend she had down on earth. She remembered when they had their first real conversation. Well, sort of.
*flashback*
Makoto was looking at the books in Relena's library. And it didn't suprise her that almost all the books were about pacifists. She found one about the origins of China, which Wufei had probably brought in here. Makoto looked into it. She was from Japan, which had similar customs.
Trowa entered the room. He found her looking at all the books. He sat on the satin violet oversized chair and watched her carry on, not wanting to break the peace. Not wanting to talk at all mostly. He sat their admireing how she looked so content with all her ambition to find a good book that wasn't pacifism realated. He smiled as she made a face at a book with Chinese writing on the front. He made a face when she actually opened it. Why would she be interested in Japaneese. Trowa had to ask. "Why are you looking at a Chinese origin book?" Makoto jumped as she heard his voice. Trowa's face stayed the same. Makoto put a small grin on her face. "Well, I guess because where I'm from and China have similar origins?" It wasn't a question. "Where are you from?" He asked again. "Japan." She said again, trying to make her answers one-worded so to make sure she didn't say anything stupid in front of a cute guy. *gundam pilot!!!* Her mind yelled at her. Makoto made a face. She mentally rephrased her thoughts, make sure she didn't say anything stupid in front on a cute gundam pilot. *^_^* Her mind was satisfied. "Hello?" Trowa asked, Makoto was obviously in a daze. "Hugh, what?" She asked. "I asked where in Japan you where from." "Tokyo." She said. Trowa nodded. And stuck his head into his laptop he brought with him, probably thinking that he would find some peace and quiet in the library, and not be bothered by Relena asking him what Heero's email address was. Trowa was a bit suprised she hadn't already found out. Heero must have put extra cicurtiy on his laptop this time.
Makoto came to look over his shoulder. She saw that he was hacking into some OZ files. She smirked behind his back as he tried to get into a file that contained some very vidal information that the colonies would be delighted to get their harmless hands on. Makoto thought it would be fun to give him that password he was repeatedly trying to get. See what he does. He tried to get the password that was right again, but failed. Makoto quickly punched in a few letters faster than Trowa could read and entered him in. When Trowa realized what she had done, he threw her a look of shock. She smirked at him and shrugged her shoulders as answer to his mental question. He just turned back to his laptop and started to look up the info he was looking for. Makoto left the room short after. She smiled to herself. *Cute, but he is hard to fool.*
*end flashback*
Whatever. Trowa had probably told them the information he had found. He probably told them that one of OZ's hiks had given him the password. Makoto scolded herself for her own fun, but it was still amusing to see that look of astonishment on his face. He probably knew she was playing with him. So that would explain why he went back to his I'm-not-in-the-mood-don't-talk- to-me stage the next day and then on. She had him for a moment. But soon she realized she couldn't have her fun with the boy anymore. Her mission was to kill him. But she didn't want to. Just as she was forced to help organize how Relena's foster father was going to be killed. She and Ami. Rei was on another mission with Minako (another bribe, of course. Not exactly what Minako had in mind.) And Usagi was working with Une on a few things.
But Makoto lived through that, even though she knew that Relena's foster father did not deserve to die. But Usagi had taught her a lesson a long time ago when she was in training with her one day and Makoto brought up the subject. (Rei, Ami, and Minako were not in that same class with them.) Usagi had told her that no human deserved to die anymore than they deserved to live. She went into detail how she had killed some that had to be the most innocent people on earth. But they were the victims in that situation. And Usagi didn't know any better at that point. She was only 6 years old, and had not been exposed to that much training yet. Makoto knew that she would never go through what Usagi and Rei had, so she looked up to them, and took their sayings seriously. Her and Ami. It was only natural that they became friends, but Usagi had never let anyone get close to her except that Panther she always had. Apollo. But even that was a mistake. Now look at her. Apollo was killed by Minako to get revenge on her and Rei. She probably would never even consider loving anything ever again. That was another reason that Makoto and Ami admired her and Rei so much. They could get through and over those things easily. It only took Usagi a day and a half to get to her old self again. Though, not quite and open. She was closed completely. She wouldn't even call Rei, Ami or her 'friends' anymore. She would refer to them to anything other than accomplises. Rei had done the same. They excepted reality. Makoto was in the closing stage now. She wanted to go where the other three went. She didn't want to be alone. Better yet she was afraid of it. Ami was going through practically the same thing. Though she was kind heart. She had a harder time with that than Makoto.
*Makoto's POV*
They all allowed themselves to be taken into the care of loneliness. Now I have nothing else to do but the same. I know that if this war ever does end that all of us will probably be seperated, and we'll never see each other again. That is what scared me. If the war ended before I was complete, I would be alone. Suicide was common enough. But it was not how I wanted to die.
I made myself a promise. Never to take another creature into my heart again, like I had Usagi, Rei and Ami. I know them as nothing more than accomplises. Partners in crime. Like Usagi and Rei needed partners. If they had been on their own from the start all the colonies ships would be acnient history by now. But OZ liked to keep the suspence. They liked the fear. They wanted the war to keep going and the universe would live in fear for the rest of their being. It was what they thrived on. It was a way of life for them.
Now, it was the way of life for me, Usagi, Rei, and Ami. We were part of OZ, part of the predaters. Part of the monster that the universe created. We were the predaters, the universe was the prey.

The end.
Not really. ^_^ I won't lie, it *might* be the end. Only if I get a lot of reviews on this fic will I continue. Oh, and I'm welcome to any new idea's you might have for the next chapters. I can't even remember what I wrote. I can't find the manuscripts I spent a whole month prepareing!!! Such lick, hugh? Email me and tell all what your thoughts are for the next chapter. *IF* there is a next chapter.
