Since I haven't updated for awhile, I have decided to post another chapter

more chapters.

Chapter 4: The Shadows Revealed

(GW Dimension)

"There have been numerous of disturbances in the colonies. Reports
of abnormal deaths, killings by a peculiar manner, this killer who it is
seems to be targeting young girls."

Lady Une is coming into the office where all the G-pilots were
currently residing in. In her hand, she carried stacks of reports and files
of all the murders.

"What does this have to do with us? I mean we are not some criminal
investigators. We are Preventers to keep the peace not solving murder
mysteries." Duo said.

"What do you make of abnormal objects that seemed to be shooting off
into the sky. Yellow-coloured crystals that simply materialized and shoot
up in space?"

"Lady Une, you use the word 'abnormal' quite a few times. What do
you mean by abnormal?" Quatre asked.

"I mean unusual. All these killings have been done by taking the
energy out from the victims. No stabbing, no weapons, no nothing. There
have been sitings of crystal-liked shooting off to the sky after these
killings. They seemed to be taken place all over the colonies so this killer
should have a couple of accomplices or this killer probably moves really
fast."

"What do you suppose we do?" Wufei finally spoke up. When he heard
that young girls (young onnas) are being killed, the justice side of him had
kicked in and wanted to find the bastards who have no honour.

"I want you five to go up to Space and check out where these crystals
are heading. Look for anything suspicious or out of the ordinary and report
back."
~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~
The five pilots took off in their separate gundams. Of course, they are
have their different views on their matter.

Duo for one had no trouble expressing his opinions on their matter,
"What does Lady Une expect us to find? A hidden spaceship in the middle of
space? What does she expect us to do after we find this killer or crystal
sapper or whatever it is huh? What are we looking for anyway?"

"Shut up Duo before I shoot you."

"I will gladly help Heero on that one."

"C'mon, Wufei! Heero! Don't tell me to believe in this mumble jumble."

"Duo, this is a mission. We are supposed to follow orders."

"Sheesh, Trowa. You guys need to lighten up."

Suddenly a series of beeping chorused in the cockpits of the gundams.

"I'm detecting a series of energy in the sector ahead. It is closing in
on us at an accelerating rate."

"Quatre, this is no time for stating the obvious."

"Duo, no time for making jokes. Do you see anything at all? They
should be just coming up in front of us." Quatre scolded the braided pilot.

The five pilots stood in a circle, in a defensive stance. Scanning the
area around them. All have seen the energy ratings on their gundams going
off the charts. However, there was nothing there, just plain darkness and
the silence of space.

Then out of nowhere, a ball of electrifying energy shot out at the
group and the gundams flew in different directions of space but quickly
recovered. All of them were used being shot at but was mildly surprised that
they could not see their foe. But as that thought slipped from the minds, a
wave of shadow minions materialized in front of them. They were indescribale,
seemed to camouflage themselves within Space. Nevertheless, the pilots
sprung into actiion.

(an: I'm not good with writing out GW battle scenes so bear with me 'k)

Wing Zero was battling those 'things' with its beam saber while
Deathscythe began slashing with its scythe nearby. Sandrock and Shenlong was
slicing through them but to no visible effect. A series of explosions and
laser beams flashed which indicated the position of the gundams. Heavyarms
was by itself but Trowa realized that he had seen the attack before.

(flashback)

The ball of energy, electrifying through the air as it was aim for Sailor
Moon as he lurched forward and took the hit for her.

(end flashback)

'Could it be ... ' he thought. His thoughts were shorten that a larger
object bigger than the ones that the other four pilots had been fighting was
heading straight for him. Heavyarms released and fired its missles but it
was too late. The shadow engulfed him and for a brief moment Trowa felt
that the essence of his heart was being pulled out from him. He let out a
scream. He saw a yellow-crystalline object escaped from inside of him. He
dropped back onto the sit of the gundam and his last thoughts were Serena...

From the other pilots point of view, they all had Trowa's screams but
were unable to reach him because those shadow minions seemed to multiply
liked a veil blocking their path. Before long, they too were engulfed by
those shadows and experienced the agonizing pain of having those yellow
crystals pulled from their bodies. They had no idea what was going on but
as their eyes were closed for the last time, a bright flash of light
erupted from space and they knew no more.
