No answer. Trowa hang up.
"If you'll need me." he said. Duo nodded. When Trowa reached the door, the telephone rang. Trowa answered it again.
"Hello, this is Trowa Barton here."
A girls voice said: "Hey, Trowa! This is Catherine speaking."
Trowa looked at Diana and Duo.
"Hello? Trowa? Are you still there? Is anything wrong?" Catherine sounded very scared.
"Yes, I am still here. Don't worry."
"Oh, okay!" Catherine sounded very, very relieved. She was just back from circus training. Trowa knew that because Catherine sounded tired.
"You're back from the circus, right?"
"Yeah! How do you knew that? Wow, you really have a great sense! But it doesn't mean that you can battle any further! I-"
"Catherine. I can take care of my own. Don't worry! I'll be just fine. So, why did you call me? Is it very important?"
"Of course! Otherwise I wouldn't call you."
"Okay, speak up." Catherine suddenly didn't sounded happy anymore. Trowa got scared and waited for Catherine's story.
"Today." She stopped. It sounded like she couldn't say anything. She was paralyzed from the angst. Trowa's GREAT sense picked it up.
"Tell me, Catherine! I can feel that something terrible has happened!"
"Okay. I'll tell. But promise you won't take your Gundam and come fight!"
"But Catherine! If it's really that terrible, I really gotta know it! Maybe I can help-"
"No! Trowa, I don't want you to get hurt. I just don't."
Catherine started to cry.
"Stop sis. You know I'll protect you. But only if you ask me to."
"O-okay. Thanks Trowa." Catherine stopped crying and continued:
"Today, when I was practicing in the circus, 2 Aries from the OZ attacked!"
"What? What did you do?"
"Nothing! But a mysterious Gundam appeared. He attacked the 2 Aries and gave us time to escape."
"A mysterious Gundam?"
Suddenly Duo looked at Trowa.
"A mysterious Gundam?" Duo asked concerned. Trowa couldn't give a answer to Duo's question cause Catherine continued.
"Yes. He defeated the 2 Aries. But then the real trouble started! OZ had backup troops!"
"Let me guess. 15 more mobile dolls, am I right?"
"Yes! How did you know?"
"Well, everytime I fight with the OZ, they send backup troops and that's always 15! I count them."
"Okay. Well, then the Gundam said we have to go. He said to me I have to warn you."
"What happened then? Tell me, please! I'm curious!"
"I don't know. We where all gone. I ran away without looking what happened behind me. There was only a very loud BANG and then everything was quiet. Our circus was destroyed. When the mobile dolls where destroyed, the director died cause a piece of metal. Oh, why can't that OZ stop this war! Everybody has to suffer it."
"Oh Catherine. I'm so sorry for you. But I'll promise: I'll destroy OZ."
