Attack On Relena

Noin was hurrying towards the palace of the Oz Kingdom, being driven by a chauffeur, 65-year-old Pagan. Pagan noticed Noin wringing her hands in the back seat, constantly shifting her views to and from the window.

"Miss Noin, I can't help but wonder, what is the matter?" Pagan asked, looking back at her face through the rearview mirror.

"Nothing. It's nothing, Pagan," Noin said, knowing that this information must be kept confidential between her, Relena, Zechs, and whoever Zechs felt he could trust.

Pagan pulled up to the gate at the Oz Kingdom palace, a grand, cement building painted with white, blue, and pink. At the shining white gates, a servant came forward. "Present yourself!" he barked at the car.

Noin got out of the car and straightened her blue jacket. "I am Lady Lucretzia Noin. I'm here to see my fiancé, the Prince Milliardo. He is visiting with Prince Trieze."

The servant gave a sharp nod of his head. He knew of Zech's engagement, though he never expected to see the beautiful young woman whom Zechs so affectionately called 'Noin'. "This way, madam," the servant said, motioning to the guards that the gates should be opened. In a boring, tedious way, he led Noin down the hallway and into a long corridor. "Prince Milliardo is with Prince Trieze, Princess Lisa, and the Lady Mariemaia in that room." He pointed towards a large set of double doors.

"Thank you," Noin said graciously as the servant left. Then, all formality dropped, she rushed down the corridor and into the room.

"Noin!" Zechs exclaimed looking up at her from the game of Chess he had been beating Trieze at.

"Miss Noin!" Princess Liea exclaimed, looking up from the floor where she had been playing with Mariemaia. "What are you doing here?"

"I need to talk to Zechs for a moment," Noin said.

"One moment," Zechs said. He looked hard at the chessboard, moved a piece, and quickly got up.

Trieze looked at the board, surprised, then looked at the door, which Zechs was closing. "He's good," Trieze muttered.

"What the Hell?!" Zechs yelled.

"Shh!" Noin warned him. "What I just told you must remain confidential!"

"Noin, what are we supposed to do about it?" Zechs demanded urgently.

"Come back with me to the Sanq Kingdom. There's a good chance that King Dur Male won't wait long to attack us."

"Right."

Zechs and Noin left soon after for the Sanq Kingdom again, driven at full speed back to the palace.

Time seemed to crawl, but finally, the cover of night fell on the kingdom. Relena was tired from worry and the near impossible task of spurning advances from the suitors her father picked for her. Exhausted, Relena plopped into bed without changing or even getting under the covers.

Just outside the palace, three of King Dur Male's soldiers lined up against the wall. "Commander Silver to base," one of them said into a walky-talky. "We've made it to the palace. Waiting for orders. Over."

"What do you mean, waiting for orders?" a voice on the other end hollered. "Kill Princess Relena, you dolts!"

"Sir!" The soldier snapped the walky-talky shut and shoved it onto his belt. "Let's move!" he ordered his comrades.

Relena's eyes shot open as she sat upright on her bed. A cold wind blew into the room, cutting into her clothes. Yawning sleepily, she went to close her window.

"Oh my God!" she yelped.

"Retreat!" Commander Silver shouted. The soldiers' retreating forms faded into the shadows until they were nothing but silhouettes, and then, they were gone.

Relena nearly choked up a lung, before turning and running towards her parent's chambers.

"It seems I underestimated your report," King Peacecraft said. It was the next day. He and the Queen were facing Relena from their thrones.

"We want to protect you from further attacks," Queen Peacecraft piped up.

"So we have hired you a bodyguard." King Peacecraft turned his head towards the door. "You may enter."

The doors pushed open, as the student of Dr. J entered the throne room.

Relena's heart nearly stopped beating. It was he…that boy she used to play with as a child in the palace gardens! The same one who'd wandered in unexpectedly, lost, and then became an almost permanent setting in it. It lasted for a year, and then… The same hair, the same eyes…

"My name is Heero Yuy."

The same voice.

"Pleased to meet you, Heero," Relena said, curtseying politely.

"Likewise," he said, bowing stiffly.

'God, he doesn't remember me! I know we were just little kids, but still!' Relena thought, straightening herself. She cleared her throat. "I'm going back to my room," she announced. "Clarrise," she called to a servant, "please show Heero to his room."

"Yes, madam," Clarrise said, curtseying. "This way, if you please, Mr. Yuy…"

Relena threw one last backward glance as Heero walked away with Clarrise. Now that she'd found her old playmate, all that was left was for her to make him hers…
