Hi all!!!! You know I don't own Gundam Wing. I'm pretty sure not a single person in GW fanfiction owns it either, otherwise why would the stories be there? ;o)...Unless you count stock...is there stock in GW? *sigh* Oh well, bottom line, I honestly don't own GW.

Sally Po waited patiently in front of Une's office. She leaned against the wall, her arms folded. When she noticed the preventer leader coming she stood fully upright to greet her. "How did it go?"
Lady Une smiled. "How do you think? You were welcome to come along."
"With those four you usually just sit back and watch the fireworks. They found Duo?"
"They know where he is. How could this happen? We missed something this big."
"The players in this game knew how to keep secrets. We're dealing with profesionals."
Une nooded in agreement. "To get his far without being noticed they'd have to be."
The two women looked up as Heero approached. The boy had since cleaned up, discarding his prison clothing for something more conventional. He gave the two his usual indifferent look and spoke. "We'll be leaving."
Une nodded. "I'll assemble a unit."
"No need. We'll take care of it."
Une shook her head. "I am not going to let the four of you go off on your own for this."
Heero's eyes shifted from Une to Sally and finally back to Une. "We'll think it over."
He then turned around and began walking back in the direction he had come without another word. Sally lookedat Lady Une. "Would you say they're stubborn?"
Une smirked. "At least he had the courtosy to tell us they were leaving. Assemble a small unit immediatly. Knowing those four they'll try to skip out before any of have a chance to act."
Sally Po smiled slightly and began walking opposite the direction of where Heero had gone. Following Une's request she didn't waste any time.
***************************
Three shots rang out with a deafining sound that echoed through the room. More shots fired, barely a pause between them as the gun continued to fire until the clip had been completly emptied. It's holder gripped the gun so hard that her knuckles were white. Short black hair fell over her violet eyes and the girls ears were covered with the manditory ear guards. Tears stremed down her cheeks and unter her chin as she reloaded the clip and continued to fire, shredding her new paper target with bullet holes.
A young brunette stepped into the fireing room She wore a white blouse with a violet vest and short violet skirt. It was clear that the excess noise bothered her, but still she continued on to Hildi. "II hoped to find you here."
Hildi didn't appear to hear the girl or didn't care as she continued to fire until she had emptied another clip and began to reload. Relena stopped the other girl from continuing, placing her hand on Hildi's arm. Hildi looked at the girl, removing her ear guards. "What is the former queen doing in a firing range?"
"Could we talk somewhere else?"
Hildi reloaded the gun and fired. "No."
"What are you so upset?"
"Why does it matter so much if I am? You shouldn't care. You have more important things to worry about don't you?"
"I worry about my friends first."
Hildi fired twice. "Friends? We were never friends. We barely cross paths and the great Vice Minister is far to importantant to be concerned about some old OZ Soldier who's living...sorry, WAS living with a gundam pilot. Theres no need to concern yourself with me. Go away."
Hildi emptied another clip and grabbed another to reload. Relena grabbed the gun before the action could be completed, interupting the other girl. "Duo is alive."
Hildi spat. "Of course he's alive. Of course we buried some other poor bastard."
"If you know, why are you doing this?"
Hildi narrowed her eyes. "What gives you the right to care Relena?! Why do you consider it so vital to meddle in everyone's lives? I don't want you're help! I don't need it! Can't you ever take a fucking NO for an answer?! Or are you such a spoiled little brat that you need to have it your way? Well I'm telling you NO Relena. Get it through you're fucking head and LIVE WITH IT!"
Hildi's shouting had become loud enough to draw attention and a few glances were made in their direction. Neither girl seemed to pay much attention to it. Relena nodded. "You think I'm spoiled, that's fine, maybe I am. A spoiled little rich girl who didn't have to ever wonder where the next paycheck was coming from. Whiny maybe, foolish little girl who knew nothing about the real world. But I think I've proven myself, and I've grown up a lot since then. I'm no longer a foolish girl and whether you think if I deserve it or not, I'm going to stand here and listen until you decide to tell me what is really on your mind besides my past imaturities."
Hilde stared at the other girl, anger was boiling inside her and she couldn't release it. Relena was taking this too well, she wanted to yell, she wanted to have an excuse to yell. What Relena had just done was diffuse a bomb and the other girl no longer had the desire to yell at Relena. She couldn't, it was like a fire inside her that she could no longer let out. Tears ran down her cheeks and she finally just collapsed agains the wall. "He was supposed to be dead. He was dead and I cried, I cried a lot and then it was better. I was starting to live again, everything was okay. Then they tell me he's alive. He's not dead, he's alive. I was just getting over it and then out of the blue I find out he wasn't dead after all. And I can't understand it. I don't want to go through this again! Loosing him then getting him back? How am I supposed to feel? Someone tell me how I'm supposed to feel."
Relena looked down at the other girl. She stood in front of Hilde and got down to her knees, placing both hands on her shoulder and willing her to look up. "Maybe you'll find out when you see him."
"And what if he dies again before I even have the chance?"
Relena just stared and bowed her head, she didn't know how to answer that one.
