Hotaru: well hello guys, how's it hangin today?
Jake: pretty good how bout yourself Hotaru?
Hotaru: so-so but I live to write so I'll be much happier after this chapter. And in response to your question SC...yeah, aren't you?
Jake: and it's a MODIFIED Zero System!! Especially with all the cool action that's gonna happen!
Hotaru: *smacks Jake* don't go giving that away! Alright then let's start before Jake here gives away anything else. We'd also like to wish our best to the families of the astronauts that were lost.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
It was the next day and Heero had been released from the hospital. Clair had gone along with him but Michi and Amanda stayed behind with Duo. Heero was now hell bent on finding Crys, not just for personal reasons, but because she was a threat to the world! If the rumors were true than she had a Gundam with almost unstoppable destructive force. He and Clair were going back to his place to get his computer. They had just entered the building when a messenger handed Heero a letter and left.
"What is it" Clair asked.
"A message from Crys" he answered. He opened it and read it for Clair to hear. "Dearest brother, I know this message will reach you because the messenger is a trusted associate. This is your only warning. If you don't meet me today then the world and all the colonies are gonna suffer. I want a final showdown, and you're just the person to give it to me." He stopped and looked up at Clair.
"She's serious isn't she" Clair said.
"Yes she is" he looked back down at the letter. "I have more than just you in my sights Heero, I have something that everyone wants but only you can get. It all rests on your shoulders Heero, sincerely Crys Hunter."
"She's using her original name again" Clair muttered.
"Here's the directions and stuff" he said looking at a second piece of paper. "I'll have to get to work on the Wing Zero Custom right away."
"Oh Heero, you can't be serious! You can't fight her, you'll lose" Clair said. Heero turned and walked away without a word. Clair watched him go as a single tear ran down her cheek. "HEERO!" He stopped and looked back at her.
"What?"
"Give her hell" Clair yelled. He nodded and started walking again.
*~*~* at the mansion *~*~*
Crys was hard at work on the DZ, painting, adjusting, and calculating. TJ came in and called her name. She appeared out of the cockpit nearly covered in black paint.
"You called" she asked.
"Nice camouflage" he said.
"Shut up!" She snapped.
"Hey Crys, I needed a quick word with ya" he said. She jumped down and walked over to him.
"Yes?"
"Are you really gonna be able to kill your brother" he asked. She stiffened as she sat down.
"Yes" she whispered. "In cold blood."
"It's just that the higher-ups don't think you will and, honestly, neither do I" he said. She clenched her fists and closed her eyes.
"Listen to me, I don't care what you guys think alright? What I do is my business as long as I help you in some way, fine I can do that. My brother's death WILL be handled by me alone, got it?!" She growled.
"What have you done for us?" he asked.
"A hell of a lot more than you! I'm essential to this little mission and you know it! Now quit askin stupid questions and leave me to my work" she yelled. He glared at her and turned to leave.
"You'll regret ever saying that Yuy, you'll regret everything" he muttered darkly. He left and walked down the hall to the boss's room. The boss was in a crisp suit and sitting behind a desk flipping through papers and signing a few. He stopped as TJ sat down in a chair.
"Well?" he asked.
"She's gonna be a problem, just as you said, we should send in the replacement." TJ said. His boss (lets call him D) nodded and sighed.
"To bad, she was a hell of a fighter! The best one we had but it's necessary so...go ahead, grab Crys and send in the Replacement" D sighed. TJ's eyes danced with delight.
"Can I do it? Please let me do it, I can handle her." He pleaded. D gave him a questioning look. "COME ON!!"
"Fine but don't you dare kill her before I get in a last word" D said. TJ was overjoyed at this point.
"Thank you, heh she won't know what hit her" TJ replied happily. He got up and walked out into the hall.
*~*~* with Crys *~*~*
She looked up at the Gundam and sighed.
"I'm dog tired and dirtier than a mud puddle but it was worth it to see her in her glory." She said to no one. "All I need now is the self destruct mechanism and we're all set. Now where'd it go?" She looked around and saw the piece she was looking for...in the hand of TJ. He tossed it up a few times, catching it, and smirked at her.
"You've been replaced, Bijin, time ta go" he said.
"What did I tell you about that?! And what do you mean?" she asked.
"Very simple, you come with me and she fights against Heero" he answered pointing to a girl in the shadows.
"It ain't happening" Crys growled.
"Then I'm gonna make ya" he said.
"Really? You and what army" she asked. He pulled out a gun and pointed it at her.
"Come on Crys make this easy." He said. She walked forward until the barrel of the gun was digging into her forehead.
"Go ahead TJ make my day" she hissed. He hesitated on the trigger long enough for her to grab it flip it around and fire. He cringed but straightened up as he realized she'd missed. He looked around and saw why. She was staggering back with a shining silver dart in her neck. She yanked it out of her and tried to steady herself. "Tranquilizers?" She fell to her knees and stared at her hands as her vision darkened.
"Crys, I warned you" TJ whispered as she fought to stay awake.
"You psycho, I have to kill...Heero" with that she fell to the floor and was asleep. TJ picked her up and carried her away.
"Not anymore" he muttered.
*~*~* with Heero *~*~*
"Heero"
Heero looked up from his work suddenly.
"What was that?" he asked. He looked around and, finding nothing, went back to work.
"Heero"
"I'm hearing things" he muttered.
"Yo Heero would ya open the damn door" he hopped down from his Gundam and opened the door to see a semi-pissed Michi.
"I thought you were at the hospital with Duo" he said.
"Well I was but Clair came back and told me about your plans" she replied. "And I wanted to wish you the best of luck, but Heero...could ya try to bring her back alive?"
"I won't make any promises, but I'll try."
"I understand how your feeling, she's called me out to, trust me she won't show. She never has" Michi said.
"Be that as it may, I still have to go" he snapped "I don't like this anymore than you do but if I don't go then we can kiss everyone in this galaxy goodbye!"
"Don't yell at me about something you don't understand! You don't even know Crys, she's not you sister, she's a fraud!" Michi covered her mouth the second the words left it. Heero stared at her.
"What do you mean?" he asked. Michi shook her head.
"I didn't say anything" she muttered. He grabbed her and slammed her against the wall.
"WHAT DO YOOU MEAN" he yelled. Michi started shaking
"She's not your sister, she's just an experiment gone wrong" Michi whispered. He glared down at her.
"Who is she then?"
"They needed someone close to you, someone you wouldn't suspect, so they made Crys and sent her along. But something went wrong in the labs, they messed with her mind and turned her into the blood crazed psycho she is now. When they couldn't control her anymore they were forced to capture her" Michi's eyes darkened "but she escaped. She killed them all and was set free."
"When did this happen" he asked.
"she was only three" she whispered. He let go of her and she sank to the floor.
"It was all a lie and I fell for it" he said bitterly.
"but-" she was cut off as he glared at her.
"I've heard enough lies from you today, get out of my sight before I kill you myself" he snapped. She got up and left. When she got outside she sighed deeply.
"I hated to do that to him but he has to learn for himself, maybe Crys will learn something too. (Twisted logic alert!) They both have got to learn that to find the truth you have ta do a lot of searching." she sighed again. "The truth is what you choose to believe, not necessarily what is right. It'll do them both some good." Heero was typing furiously now, how could he have believed them?!
"Damn them both straight ta hell!" (Aw he don't like me anymore!)
*~*~* At The Mansion *~*~*
TJ looked at the unconscious Crys and sighed.
"I hate ta do this Crys, but you are too big of a risk to us" he muttered. She was handcuffed to a table (shame on all you Hentai's out there!) with a few chemical test tubes around her. He came forward just as she started to come around.
"Erg my head" she moaned. She tried to sit up but, finding that she couldn't, looked around. "What is your problem?!"
"You shouldn't be awake" he said.
"Too bad for you now let me go!!" she yelled struggling. He stepped forward and put a hand over her mouth.
"Don't yell, it'll make this more painful" he whispered. He stuck a piece of cloth in her mouth and moved over to a table next to hers. She tried to look at what he was doing but ended up nearly breaking her wrist instead.
"Ahh" she whimpered.
"I told you" he said with a smirk. He came back over and reached out to her. She shrunk back as best she could and a look of total fear filled her eyes. "Stop, it's not befitting of a Yuy to whimper like this." She closed her eyes and cringed. He attached a wire to each of the cuffs and grabbed a control switch. He smiled.
"Alright Crys this is very simple tell me everything you like about the Gundams and their pilots" he said. She opened her eyes and glared. He pulled the cloth out.
"Kiss my aahhhhh" she screamed as white hot pain shot through her body. She writhed slightly and panted as the pain stopped.
"Did I forget to mention that if you don't tell me you'll be electrocuted?" he asked with a laugh. She growled.
"I...won't...talk" she panted. The pain shot through her again but this time she didn't scream, she held it in and instead started to tear up instead. The pain stopped and TJ looked at her.
"What, no scream? Come on Bijin, scream for me" he hissed. Crys looked at the ceiling and growled again.
"I won't give you that pleasure." She whispered. He shrugged
"Suit yourself" he said flipping the switch again.
"You sadistic bastard" she yelled. He smirked.
"If ya hate me now, your gonna be killing me in a minute" he replied
"What now" she asked tiredly. The pain was taking its toll on her after all. She could barely keep her eyes open now. A trickle of blood ran down her chin as he uncuffed her and picked her up. She didn't have the strength to resist him anymore. He carried her over to a chair and set her down.
"Nothing too bad" he whispered into her ear. She tried to give derisive laugh but it ended up nothing more than a weak chuckle.
"shoot me and get it over with" she muttered. He laughed and pushed her bangs out of her eyes.
"Not happening" he said. She looked into his eyes and whimpered again.
"Aaron" she whispered.
"What" he asked. A pair of flames danced in her eyes.
"You're just like that creep Aaron" she growled. She got to her feet and clenched her fists. "You are just an idiot, I swear I'm going to kill you and burned what ever's left of you!" She straight out punched him, knocking him flat to the ground.
"What the hell" he asked before falling unconscious.
"NEVER mess with a pissed off Yuy unless you WANNA die" she growled. She wiped her chin with her arm then looked at the blood. "Must be internal bleeding, well big deal! I've gotten worse from Dego or Zechs." She coughed up some more blood and smirked, licking her lips.
"I have ta get to Heero before that other girl does" she said as she walked out. On her way she stomped on TJ.
