Everything I Do; 5
Relena wasn't pleased that all her hard work of reaching this floor was going to be wasted by having to go downstairs again. She knew she was close to her target, she could sense the nearness of his soul.
Heero was gritting his teeth as he stared the opposition in the eye, through the curtain of his chocolate sun-kissed hair. He knew he would never lose his natural soldier talents if this life-style kept up. He barely felt the backlash of his gun as it fired into its mark and he continued jogging down the hall at a brisk pace- not even slowing as he shot a target.
Yes, he was good, the best even, and that's why Heero Yuy knew she was out. He could feel her fear, her pain, and surprisingly her confidence. He knew she would find him eventually, as long as she kept alive. She had to live. had to.
Relena stared at the scene surrounding her. Her hand came up and covered her mouth as she held back tears. How could one of the most vital women in the world be dead? She considered Noin her sister. She couldn't be dead- there was no way. Relena had just drank coffee with her that morning while Noin teased her that she was becoming an old maid.
Now she didn't have a sister to share the news of her marriage with. Her brother didn't have a wife. The universe was without one of their strongest warriors. It was such a waste.
Relena, with eyes that refused to see, walked over and knelt beside her mentor and wept. She clasped her hand over Noin's already cool hand and tried to compose herself.
"Heero proposed to me today, just like we joked about this morning, or was it yesterday. I wanted you to be my maid of honor, but I guess that won't be happening. I'm sorry, of all people you're the last one who deserved to die." Her voice was barely audible through the tears. Everyone surrounding the two felt their hearts break a little more. Relena pulled a blanket over her head respectfully but the man from the next bed stole it claiming he was cold and it wouldn't be any good to someone pushing up daisies.
"God Damn It!!" Relena slammed her fist into Noin's stomach and strode out of the room.
Duo stared at the corpse and his jaw dropped. What the heck!! He tried to get Sally's attention as Hilde ran out the door after Relena.
"Uh, Sally." He was ignored. "Sally?"
"What! Can't you see I'm grieving over here?"
"But the deceased just spit something up. When Relena punched.." He was rudely pushed out of the way as Sally hopelessly tried again to revive her friend.
Hilde caught up to Relena's long strides as she started to climb the stairs.
"Relena, stop." Her hand was roughly shrugged off the blonde's shoulder. "For heaven's sakes, don't do anything reckless."
"Reckless? Reckless!? The woman I considered my older sister is dead, my life is in turmoil, I have no clue where my fiancé is, and I'm getting a blister, you want me to be in control?"
Hilde stepped back from the fury emanating from her friend's eyes.
"Screw your control. I'm going to find Heero, or die trying." She continued to walk up the stairs. "Are you coming or not?"
Hilde muttered that this was an improvement from the work-oholic Relena, but why couldn't the girl ever just be normal? They walked up the stairs lost in their thoughts of war. Couldn't it all just be avoided with the undertaking of peace everyone wanted, but couldn't seem to accept?
Relena sighed in relief as she pushed her back against the wall perpendicular to the corner holding the door to the roof. It would only take a matter of seconds before she could see Heero's face, before she could feel the sense of security that emanated from him.
She peaked around the corner, not assuming she was safe for a moment; it was the careless who were killed first. It startled her that so many people were gathered at the door. If they thought they were trapping Heero on the roof, they had another thing coming, she grinned as she reflected on the time he had survived the fall from the hospital. 3 floors would be nothing compared to that.
She pulled the self-detonation devise out of her pocket, causing Hilde to goggle. "Are you crazy? Just because you can't get to him doesn't mean you have to commit suicide. I'm sure there's another way up there. Don't kill us." She ended in a whimper.
"There probably are other ways, but this one's the easiest way." In quick movements Hilde had trouble following Relena had pushed the button and threw it towards the group of men. It arched through the air then boinked one of the men on the head before falling to his feet.
Relena grabbed Hilde and flew sideways to get out of the way of the heat and flying debris of the explosion, but none came. "Damn, it figures with my luck it would be a dud."
Around the corner a man bent down and poked the weapon. "Dude, you dropped your stick." *poke poke* The detonation devise blew up in a flash of red-orange light. Breathing through her teeth to inhale a minimal amount of smoke, Hilde peeked around the corner. Relena had already gotten up and was now perched on the edge of the gaping hole she had created in the floor.
Relena walked back towards Hilde, and the raven haired girl was just about to suggest they get to the stairs by ladder from the floor below when Relena turned back around. Hilde amusedly wondered what the petite blonde was going to do when Relena ran and jumped over the yawning hole in the floor.
Bracing herself for a crash, Hilde watched her best friend seemingly fly over the fissure and land on the stairs 3 diagonal meters away. Muttering that she knew no one who was normal, Hilde walked over to the side of the gap and looked down with a whimper.
"Your choice Hilde, stay or jump."
From above Heero smiled his evil little smirk when he heard the explosion. So she had made it to him after all. He had never doubted her strength from the beginning, but he was just starting to understand how far it would go. It hadn't taken him long after he started this battle to figure out they were parachuting from planes, and into the castle walls. So he had come up here to pick them off one by one at the root of the problem.
She jumped. For a few terrified seconds she soared through the air, and she could feel her body slowly descending as she began to fall. Well crap, she wasn't going to make it. Hilde tried not to panic as she envisioned herself falling face first to the stone floor below.
