Disclamer: I don't own Gundam Wing or any of the characters, I'm just a
lowly college student having a little fun, so please don't sue little old
me!
Rated PG/PG-13: I don't think it's really a pg-13 fic, but I'm really being careful until I know my way around here better! ^_~. (Nude, and violent content maybe a swear-word here or there)

Hikari didn't know how long it was when finally their destination came into sight. She only knew that they had taken sometime so as to be sure no one followed them to the hideout.
Deathscythe slowly landed on the ground outside of the entrance to the hanger where the pilots were housing their Gundams.
Hikari found all the other Gundams inside, which meant the others, had completed the mission to destroy the enemy base.
As Deathscythe entered the huge cavernous structure and passed the Gundam she had first seen back at the base, she knew from Deathscythe that it was Shenlong or Nataku as Wufei the pilot called it.
She saw Wufei working on a section of Shenlong's arm. He only glanced at her (Deathscythe) as they passed.
Deathscythe positioned itself into the place where it had claimed as its own, when suddenly a side vid-screen appeared on the monitor in front of Hikari.
The pilot known as Heero entered her view, "your late," he said, his voice in monotone as he finished typing something on his laptop before looking up at her.
Is eyes grew a shade wider, the only surprise that he showed at finding her instead of Duo. "Who are you, and how do you work for," he said menacingly, his eyes giving her a death stare.
The site that Heero saw before him was a girl around his age covered with cuts and bruises from head to toe. Her thigh length military shirt was now seeping with blood, her thighs bare of pants were also covered with more bleeding cuts.
His eye twitched as he saw a motionless Duo off to the side and the little name tag on the girl's shirt identifying it as the one that Duo had warn for the mission.
Hikari stared back at him trying to keep the control over Deathscythe with her remaining powers, "Duo was shot, I need help getting him out of here so that I can treat him or he will die," she choked, hoping that she sounded firm enough for the hard soldier in front of her.
Suddenly, Hikari felt more of her control between Deathscythe slipping. A slight gasp escaped her mouth as more pain jabbed in her arm; her eye's shutting tight.
A trickle of blood traveled down her arm, telling her a new wound had opened, Heero seeing the cut appear, raised an eyebrow.
"Please.I'll answer all the questions you have, but not until I now Duo is safe," she said, her jaw clenching at the added pain, reopening her eyes to stare strait into his imposing blue ones. The vid-screen blipped out of existence as Hikari started to shut down Deathscythe.
Hikari undid the hatch mentally, already beginning to undo the merge with Deathscythe. But as Hikari tried to drag Duo out of the cockpit she was met with a barrel of a shotgun.
Hikari's eyes traveled the length of the barrel to meet vacant green eyes. Hikari frowned, "are you going to help me or not," she said and turned away from the boy named Trowa, returning to drag Duo from Deathscythe.
Abruptly her knees buckled out from underneath her, the link between Duo and her breaking. Duo gave a deep sigh, and then stopped breathing all together.
Trowa stepped half way into the cockpit. Lowering his gun as he extended his hand to Duo, "I can't find a pulse," he said, a glimmer of worry flashed across his unemotional eyes. He dragged Duo onto the platform outside of Deathscythe.
Hikari, knowing that she had little time to help him, but also knowing that she greatly risked herself, throw caution to the wind knowing she would not let him die.
She called upon her power, electrifying the area around her. She lowered her lips once again to Duo's and let her life essence pour into him.
Their lips glowed with the power transfer. The glimmer flowed down Duo's entire body emitting a soothing shimmer around him.
Suddenly Duo took a deep breath, taking more of her healing power into him. As his color turned healthy, Hikari's paled a degree.
Finally she cut the contact off, her vision turned hazy.
Trowa looked at her in wonder, not understanding what he had seen. Over his shoulder three shadows gasped at the interchange, signifying that the rest of the pilots had gathered.
Hikari sat back feeling the last fragment of the merge with Deathscythe wear off, but leaving her with a painful parting gift.
Hikari's body felt like a metal fist had bounded into her gut. She gasped at the suddenness of the pain.
The force of the ache caused her to double over, one hand leaning on the ground as the other clenched at her stomach. Blood dripped from her mouth as she coughed it up. Her body started to go into spasms.
The world dimmed considerably, sight and sound muffled. She then felt hands upon her shoulders, supporting her as she shook. When Hikari looked up she found Duo there, a look of horror on his face.
"What did you guys do to her?" Duo rounded on his heels as he stood, coming to face the four speechless pilots.
Heero was the first to recover, "none of us touched her," he said calmly.
Duo gritted his teeth, "then why the hell is the babe like this? She wasn't injured before! And!-and wait..." Duo looked confused as he took in their surroundings, "How in the hell did we get back here, we were in a middle of a fight with a couple of Mobile Dolls. I don't remember taking us back to the hanger," he said becoming even more perplexed.
Hikari shakily got to her feet. Duo turned around feeling movement behind him, "what's going on, why are you-" Hikari cut him off with a raised hand.
"They had no part in this. If any thing, it was my fault," Hikari croaked, grimacing when she rubbed her stomach, knowing that probably some of her ribs were cracked.
Duo stepped closer to her in concern, showing none of the recluse and carefree individual she had encountered before.
Hikari's mouth rose in a half smile, "don't worry I'm not going to die from this, I've had much worse," she closed her eyes to catch her breath, and to calm her mind.
She didn't see the arched eyebrow of Trowa and Heero at her comment. Wufie snorted in disgust.
"Why did you bring a weak onna here? Your mission was to collect the data and that was all," grunted Wufie. "Don't tell me that all my hard work was for nothing, while you were off chasing some onna," he snarled, roaming over the barely clothed Hikari.
"Oh don't worry. I got a lot more then what was called for...a lot more," Duo responded casting a glance at Hikari. Quatre frowned at his fellow pilots, stepping past them, "Miss, my name is Quatre Raberba Winner. I ask that you forgive both my friend's rudeness. Why don't you come with me; it looks as if you are in serious need of medical treatment. And after your wounds are treated we would greatly appreciate it if you would enlighten us on how you and Maxwell ended up here."
Hikari opened her eyes and meet those of Quatre. She knew that even with his bright smile he was still a Gundam pilot. These boys were people that never trusted others and rarely trusted each other.
Images from the ruminants of the link with Deathscythe told her as much, "I think I will decline. I would much rather leave and disappear so no one can find me, if it's all right with you. Any way it would probably be safer for all of you if I did just that," Hikari sighed heavily her chest hurting in the process.
Quatre blinked at her words, then determination set his mouth into a tight line. "Please I insist. Let me treat your wounds first," he said firmly, but still with a touch of warmth in his voice.
Hikari knew her hope that they would actually let her leave was fanciful, but she was still hoping for some reason they would. stupid.
At that moment she felt so tired and drained. She had never used her abilities as much as she had today, remembering the base and all the tests that had been performed on her. She had always fought them by trying to fight her natural sense of defense to use her abilities during the exhausting and painful testing.
They hadn't even treated her injuries knowing that she would heal in a few hours. That was how she had been living for the past few years.
Though the amount of power she used today would probably inhibit her healing ability for at least two days. Her healing life essence needed time to regenerate.
So, she hated to admit it, but she probably could use some treatment knowing that right now she couldn't rely on her healing abilities.
Heero approach Hikari. She flinched back from his piercing Persian blue eyes, as if he saw right into her very soul, "you will go and have Quatre treat your wounds," he said.
Glancing at Duo he continued, "and you will go with them to be checked out yourself," he stated.
Turning back to Hikari, his eyes looked her up and down, " then you will answer all our questions as you promised. If you don't cooperate, omae o korosu," Heero whispered harshly as he turned and walked away from the others.
Hikari blinked after him, taking in the death threat of the perfect soldier.
Wufei grunted as if the situation was beneath him and left to return to repairing Nataku. Hikari looked from Duo to Trowa and lastly to Quatre who was waiting for her to follow him.
Hikari bowed her head in defeat, "I guess I can't say no to that," She sighed, glancing up at Duo who gave her a grimace.
"Then let us go," said Quatre as he led them to the infirmary.
