Chapter 8.
The three former pilots all exchanged confused looks before turning back to Trowa, the same look still plastered upon their features,
"What . . .?" Duo asked, shaking his head slightly,
"Turn on the TV! A war is breaking out!" Trowa exclaimed,
"Huh!?" Duo replied, his face struck dumb, "What are you talking about!? All that stuff is other with Tro'! Are you sure that you aint just havin' a nightmare!"
"DUO!" Trowa fumed, "Just switch on the damn set and you'll soon see!"
Duo huffed, but complied, walking to the nearest television set and flicking it on. Onto the screen flashed an image of a news room, the reported looking slightly dishevelled and taken a back. He breathed heavily, stress evident upon his features. Taking in a deep breath he began,
"What you are seeing, on the screen behind me is the recent attack from Colony L469! The colony has risen up against the earth sphere and declared war upon the nation!" He took in a few more deep breaths, "The question everyone is asking as people are massacred is where ARE the Gundams? Will they come to our rescue or . . .?" He trailed off, looking quite sad as the channel cut to a test pattern.
The four ex-Gundam pilots stood in silence before Wufei spoke up,
"We know what we have to do." He declared.
Heero and Trowa nodded as Duo cast a quick glance to Heero and then over at Paige who stood, her head lowered. Duo sighed heavily,
"Yeah . . . looks like we've got a lot of work cut out or us . . ."
"What's the plan?" Trowa asked, looking at Heero, an automatic reaction,
"Rebuild? I think I have some of the old blue prints for Wing . . . somewhere . . ."
"Same here." Wufei added,
"Jee, go figure! I'm surprised you even managed to blow up your precious Nataku!" Duo snapped back, stepping towards Paige sadly, wrapping his arms around her, "Where do you think will be the safest."
"Who knows." Heero said with a shrug, "Why?"
"I wanna send Paige there." He said with a slight nod.
Paige looked up at her father,
"Daddy! I wanna stay with you!" She exclaimed,
"You can't!"
"Why?" She whined,
"Because it's dangerous!"
"Then why are you going?" She insisted,
"Paige! Don't argue! I'm going to send you somewhere safe! Understood?"
Paige scowled but stayed silent for the time being.
The four men disappeared, leaving Yan and Paige to sit and think,
"Another war." Yan murmured, as he stood by the widnow,
"Yeah . . ."
"Are you alright?"
"No."
"What's wrong?"
"What if I lose my father? We're all each other have in the world . . . well; Dad's got Heero now too . . . but . . . still, if I lose him, I have no one and . . . I don't want him to GO!" She whimpered, tears threatening to spill as they gather in her eyes,
"Shhhhhh, calm down." Yan soothed, sitting beside her and wrapping an arm around her shoulders,
"Oh Yan! I don't like this!" She sighed,
"I know, neither do I, but, it's what they do! Everything will be alright if they do it . . . I promise!"
It was only a day or so later that Duo and Paige returned to L2. Standing in the living room, the pair looked at each other, Duo sighing heavily,
"Paige . . ." He began, "Damn, this is hard." He thought, "Paige?"
"Yeah?" She asked, avoiding his stare,
"Paige, I need to send you somewhere, alright?"
"I don't wanna go anywhere without you!" She exclaimed, "Or Heero for that matter!" She added. The teen from L2 had grown a fond liking for her father's boyfriend and now life didn't seem right without him hovering there to protect them,
"PAIGE!" Duo shouted, "Do you understand what you're saying? I can't take care of you anymore!" He choked back a sob of anguish, "Paige . . ." Duo breathed, "I can't be your father anymore because I'm not fit enough to be a suitable parent!"
"No! You are! Dad! What are you telling me?! I'm on my own?"
"No . . . not on your own, I'm going to send you away."
"Why!?" She cried, flinging her arms out, "Where!?"
"I'm going to send you to a boarding school in the country. It's in England, on Earth . . ."
"Yeah, I know where England is dad . . . but . . . why?"
"It's safer than being on the colonies right now!" Duo fumed, "It's a bit old fashioned but it's hidden away, that way . . . if something happens to me, it'll be a lot harder for our enemies to find you!"
Paige lunged forwards, burying her face into Duo's chest,
"But . . ."
"Paige, please don't argue." Duo sighed as he lowered himself to his knees, "I love you and when this stupid war is over I promise that I will come and get you, and then you, me and Heero can live happily together, alright? But until then, you have to do as I say, understand?"
Paige nodded numbly, but she really had no idea what she was about to under go. As a teenager. As a daughter of a mobile suit pilot and as a human being . . . life was about to take a drastic turn, with pain at the steering wheel.
Ok, alright! I'm done for this fic! I know it has a weird ending . . . but, look out for a story called 'Dear Daddy' that I'll be putting up, it's a sequel to this!
