Chapter Seven- Reunion

Juuban- Early Morning
Hikari... no Quatre adjusted his clothing nervously, soon his clothing
were as neat as they could so he began to fidget with his hair.
With a sigh he put down his brush and looked at his reflection, a face
unfamiliar to himself looked back... it was his own but it still felt like he
was looking at some stranger.
'Amnesia is a curse, I can't remember a thing about myself' he thought
with a sigh, he thought back to Heero... and something inside him told him that
he could trust the other teen.
It was strange to think that just yesterday he hadn't known even his own
name or age, but now he had a link to the past... his real name.
He looked at his face in the reflection looking for something... anything,
something that could give him something of the past.
"This is hopeless," he said with a depressed sigh, sure he knew his name
was Quatre now but Hikari seemed right too.
'Its all just too confusing' he thought with a groan, it was then that
he heard a soft knock on his bedroom door.
"Come in," he said putting on a smile, the door opened and the dark
haired Heero entered. Quatre wanted to cry at the sadness he felt from Heero,
he could feel the need the other teen for him to remember... remember anything
at all.
"I managed to contact our friends... they were looking for you also, they
promised to meet us at the crown arcade at lunch time," Heero said, Quatre
felt a real smile come to his face and nodded.
"So, what are they like?" he asked, a flash of sadness flashed across
Heero's eyes... almost to fast to notice before he answered.
"Its best if you meet them, I've already warned them of your amnesia so
they startle you or say something wrong that may upset you," Heero said,
Quatre nodded glad for this foresight.
As it was all these people were strangers to him, once they had been
friends... but unfortunately he remembered nothing of his past.
"Thank you," he said, Heero nodded and stared at the blond for a few
moments.
"I'm hoping this will help you remember somehow, if it doesn't... one day
we'll get you to remember one way or another," Heero said, it was at that
moment that Quatre had the feeling that Heero didn't speak much... he was more
of the silent type.
"Don't worry, I'll remember one day... its only time," Quatre said softly
and he knew it was true, one day he would remember... but he didn't know when.
With that they both left the room, till lunchtime the two of them would
be exploring Juuban.
Unknown to the two three outer Senshi followed, while they knew Heero
would protect there amnesic friend they would stay near just in case.

Duo nervously tugged at his long braid, it was a habit he had gained
over the time he was a gundam pilot... a habit he did when he was nervous.
With a sigh he leaned back in the leather covered plush seats of the
crown arcade, he wrinkled his nose at there bright red color... he didn't like
red much because it reminded him of blood.
He knew that the other pilots were nervous also, in just ten minutes
they would see Quatre again... a Quatre who didn't remember them in the least.
'Damn, why did this have to happen' he thought angrily, his violet eyes
narrowed as images flashed through his mind.
Images of hanging out with Quatre... the innocent one of the group, he
smiled remembering how sensitive the platinum blond was to emotions.
If there was one thing he knew, no matter what happened Quatre would
still be the kind sensitive teen he always was.
'At least I can count on that, but as of right now I don't know how he
is going to react to anything' he thought, Duo sighed and continued to tug on
his long braided hair.
"Duo, please stop that," an annoyed Wufei finally said, Duo blinked and
looked at the Chinese member of the group.
As usual Wufei was wearing his white colored Chinese clothing, but there
was an air of nervousness to him that usually wasn't there.
"Stop what?" he asked confused, Wufei gave him a long glare and muttered
something in Chinese... Duo had long ago figured that he was saying Braided
idiot.
"Tapping you fingers," Wufei growled, blinking Duo looked down at his
free hand. He grinned sheepishly, in all his nervousness he had started
tapping his fingers on the table... loudly.
"Sorry, nerves," he said truthfully, Wufei nodded. Thankfully he didn't
start a fight like they usually would, they were both nervous of meeting their
platinum blond friend.
"Here they are," Trowa suddenly said, they all turned in the seats to
watch the door open and two familiar faces enter the Crown Arcade.
"Quatre," Duo said with a smile, finally their little group was together
again.
***
As soon as Heero and Quatre entered the Crown Arcade, the blond wanted
to hide. In front of him were yet another three unfamiliar faces, and worst of
all they were people he had known once quite well.
The first one he was introduced to was Duo Maxwell, he was American and
with the most brilliant violet eyes he had ever seen. He had brown hair that
trailed down his back in a very long thick braid, he also had a playful smile
on his face.
The second introduced was Trowa Barton, dark blond hair fell over one of
his eyes. The one eye he could see was an emerald green, yet he felt sadness
in them, of what he didn't know. He was tall and wore non-descriptive
clothing. He would probably fit into a crowd easily.
The last person was a Chinese boy with ebony hair tied into a short
ponytail, his eyes were a very dark brown almost black and seemed to hold a
look that said he had seen to much. He wore white Chinese clothing, probably
the type fighters wore.
"It's so nice to meet you... again," he said with a small smile, the four
with him winced slightly at the statement... obviously they had hoped by meeting
them all he would remember everything.
"Hey its okay if you don't remember right away, right Wu-man," Duo said
turning, Quatre could only watch as the braided teen and the Chinese boy began
to fight. It was so funny to watch yet so stupid, not being able to help it he
giggled.
"What's funny?" Wufei asked as the two stopped there fight, the platinum
blond smiled shyly.
"You two, you just seem so silly fighting over something so silly as a
nickname... shouldn't you act like friends?" he asked curiously, it was then
that the group smiled at him.
"Looks like something's never change, your still Q-ball to us even if
you don't remember anything at the moment," Duo said, Quatre smiled a warm
feeling in his heart.
At first he didn't know what that feeling was, then it came to him... it
was with these four other teens he belonged with. It was if there paths were
one and belonged together, and together they would go far.
"Thank you Duo, one day soon I know I will remember," he said and he
felt it was the truth, soon they were all sitting and drinking soda and eating
ice cream.

"Well, looks like everything is working out all right here," Haruka
said, at the moment the three outers were in another booth and listening to
the conversation of the gundam boys.
"He seems happier with them," Hotaru said, she also felt a bit sad. If
he left she would loose a new friend.
"I know, but I have a feeling he'll start remembering faster with these
friends of his," Micheru said calmly, with a slight smile she ran a hand
through her sea green colored hair.
"Hmphhh, they better treat him right or else. He's a sweet kid and
really nice, even though they knew him before I'll beat them up if they hurt
him," Haruka said with a slight snort, Micheru rolled her eyes at her Kois
voice.
"Haruka, don't worry... I have a feeling he's very safe in there hands,"
Micheru said with a smile, the blond gave her koi a sigh and leaned back in
there booth.
"Looks like today is going to be a boring day, not a monster in sight,"
the blond said with a smile, it would be nice to have a resting period between
monster fights.
It was at that moment the main window of the crown arcade shattered
loudly, something landed inside sending people screaming. To the three outers
it screamed evil, looked like today wouldn't be peaceful after all.
"Damn... looks like a jinxed it," Haruka growled.
