Chapter 1- There's More Than One Way to Embarrass the
Perfect Soldier





Vanessa was scared at first. She backed up and almost fell as she hit
the barrel. As the Sun rose higher in the sky, she saw that they were
strange
Mobil suits. A man about 5'4"jumped down from the cockpit of a rather the
rather dark Mobil suit. He stretched and walked over to her. As he got
closer,
she could see he had one very long braid and violet eyes.
He smiled and did sort of a half wave, "Hey!! I'm Duo Maxwell, I may run
and hide, but I never tell a lie!" he exclaimed in a happy-go-lucky sort of
way.
"Yeah, right, whatever you say Duo." said another man that had Bangs
that
seemed to be lazar proof. (A/N: sorry, I had to.)
"Trowa, shut it."
"No!"
Duo ignored him.
"I am Vanessa Danatelle. I can't seem to find my brother though." She
looked past him at the other Gundams wondering slightly if she would meet the
other pilots.
Duo grinned and turned to the Gundams, "YOU GUYS, GET YOUR ASSES DOWN
HERE!" he yelled. She smiled lightly to her. "We'll help you find him."
Though Duo had yelled at all of them, only two of them came out. He turned
back to Vanessa and began introducing them. "Vanessa, this is Quatre, Wufei,
Trowa, and H- HEERO, DON'T MAKE ME COME UP THERE!!!!" Duo shook a fist at the
Gundams with huge wings.
"Shut up Maxwell, I'm convinced Treize is around here. I'm not going to
let him get away with killing that man earlier."a monotonous voice said from
within the Gundams.
"YOU LIAR! WE WATCHED TREIZE AND HIS FLEET LEAVE THE COLONY!!!" Duo
yelled. There was no response. A sly look came over Duo's face. He looked
at the Gundams with an evil smile on. "I'll tell Relena." He didn't have to
yell it, he knew Heero had heard him. The Cockpit opened and the Dark
soldier
jumped down and walked over.
"Fine... just don't tell Relena... I hate it when she yells..." The
Dark
soldier glared silently. "I thought you were supposed to be my friend."
"I am!!!! and what's that supposed to mean Yuy?!"
"Exactly what I said, Maxwell!"
"I'M TELLIN RELENA!!!"
"HELP!!"
"Haha!!!"
"What?!"
"The Perfect soldier's scared of a girl!!!!"
"I'M GONNA KILL YOU MAXWELL!!!!" Heero tackled Duo and started pounding
the crap out of him.
Quatre rolled his eyes, "They do this all the time, and here I go once
again to be peacemaker... and save Duo's ass." he muttered before jumping
into
the fight.
Quatre pulled Duo out from under Heero. Heero was now punching the hard
dirt. Duo laughed and ran, then hid behind Vanessa.
"MAXWELL, GET YOUR BUTT BACK HERE!!!!" Heero yelled at Duo before
Running at him. Heero ignored the fact that Vanessa stood between him and
his
Target. As Heero got closer, Vanessa held her hand out. Hero kept charging
ahead thinking he could knock the head-strong teen out of his way. He was
wrong. As he got closer, he hit some kind of magic forcfield and went flying
backward. Everyone laughed exept for Heero. ((A/N: Ok.. So they're a little
out of character... so what? IT'S MY STORY!!))
She blinked thinking about what Heero had said the first time she heard
him. "Heero,
what did this man look like, the one Treize killed?"
"Why should I tell you?"
Trowa sighed, "He was about twenty, dark hair, a lot like your's, about
six foot seven,
give or take a couple inches, and he had an eternity sign tattooed on his
hand."
Duo stared at him in amazement, "You saw all that from your Gundams?!"
"Heavyarms has a Magnification unit that not many people know about. I
installed it."
Vanessa had been in such deep thought as silent tears ran down her face.
As Duo turned
he noticed. "Vanessa, are you ok?"
She nodded and wiped her eyes. she
thought. "Trowa,
can you take me there?"
Trowa nodded slightly. Heero had already limped his way back to the
cockpit and Wufei
had just been watching. Quatre had also limped back to his Gundams mumbling
something
about peace. Trowa walked over to Heavyarms and jumped in. Wufei went to his
Gundams as
well. Heavyarms put a massive metal hand to the ground for her to ride on.
She whistled and a
Golden Retriever came running. Duo, who hadn't went to his Gundams yet- he
was too busy
yelling at Heero who was aiming a gun at him- walked over.
"HAHA!!! I love goldens."
(Inside heavyarms) "God save us all......" Trowa muttered shaking his
head.
(Back outside) Duo pet the Golden Retriever and retreited to his
Gundams. The Golden
and Vanessa climbed onto Heavyarms's hand.


In a few minutes, the group came to a charred field. Parts of space Leos and
Taurus lay
scattered around randomly. Off to one side, there was a body, she recognized
him right away,
even from the distance. "Trowa, put me down..." He complied. Everyone
stayed inside the
gundams, as Vanessa walked over to her brother and pulled a necklace off of
his neck. She felt
tears coming to her eyes, but fought them back. I can cry later.... She
silently pulled out a
lighter and let her brother's body on fire. she fastened the necklace around her neck.
"Vanessa, do you have a place to stay?" came Quatre's voice from one of
the gundams.
"No."
"Than come to the Winner mansion with us."
"As long as it's no trouble."
"Of course not!"
"Alright."
With that, the group went off back to the mansion.
