Finding the Truth.



Engel hadn't realized how long he was on the computer. Heero came in followed by Duo and Quatre, "Hey, isn't that my Lap Top?" Engel gasped as he shut the computer and site off. "What are you doing?" Duo asked leaning over as the monitor was now blank.

"Nothing...."

"He's hiding something..."

Heero noted, "Come on, what's going on?" Duo asked. Engel shot up from his seat and backed away. "WHO ARE YOU?!" He shouted, "We're your family.." Quatre smiled, "Don't give me that.. WHO ARE YOU!? Gundam pilots!? Why couldn't you tell me!?!"

The three gasped in shock, "Engel! Who told you that?"

"You! Duo Maxwell! Former Gundam Pilot, last seen alive in Germany..! Who are you!?" Engel shouted.

"I am your father! You don't disrespect me!"

"How can you when the report says you're not even alive!?"

"What report?!"

"The Preventers report.. From some woman named Une.. I hacked into the database.. I wanted to know why you were called, 'The God of Death.' And you all.. lied to me...."

Engel hung his head down and began to cry. Duo moved forward to hug his son, "Get away from me!" Engel moved back reveiling his gun aimed at Duo. Wufei and Trowa entered and saw what had happened. Engel continued to cry, as he held a firm grip on his gun aimed at Duo.

"Where is my mother?"

"She's dead.. I don't know her name.. "

Duo looked at his son, saddness in his face. Heero grabbed an object, most likely a gun of his own, but at perfect timing, Engel pulled out another one aimed at Heero. "Go on." Engel glared at Duo. Engel had the upper hand now, two guns, each one aimed at Heero and Duo. And Heero had his pointed at Engel.

"When I was 16, I worked for the Preventers. We were shipped to Germany to stop a rebeling act against the proclaimantion of peace.. My Moblie Suit was hit, and it burned, but I jumped out. That's why they think i'm dead.. I found your mother, holding a small baby... It was you.. She was pleading to me in German, I couldn't understand. So I took you and I ran.. And nearly a year later the rest of the guys found me.. And we wanted to raise you as our own, to give you the life we never had..."

"So you all lied to me..? Why didn't you tell me you were Gundam pilots?"

Quatre spoke up, "Because there was no need. We didn't want you to be a replacement of us. We fought and killed, and then it was time for us to stop. Peace was finally here."

"You're not who I thought you all were! You all lied! What else have you lied to me about?!"

They all stayed silent, "I'm sorry, Engel.." Duo whispered, Engel cocked the gun and fired. The others gasped, while Engel turned around and ran out the backdoor.

"DUO!?"

"I'm... ok.. He missed me...."

Engel ran and didn't know where he wanted to go. But he felt betrayed and couldn't stay there anymore. "We have to find him!"

"No, Quatre.."

"How come, Duo?"

"Because.. he is my son.. He'll be back..."

Duo hung his head low, his bangs covered his eyes, but they all saw a tear run down his cheek. "Duo.." Quatre stepped forward, but Duo held his hand up, "Stop.. Leave me for now.. You can't be seeing this.." They all started to leave the kitchen, "Wufei, turn out the light.." Wufei caught a glimpse of Duo's smile, "Sure, Maxwell.."

Duo sat in the dark kitchen in the middle of the night. "I know you're here, watching me." Heero stepped out from the darkness and sat next to Duo. "Duo.."

"Its all right. He shouldv'e known.. What hurts me the most is... My child aimed a gun at me.. He had the same look in his eyes as his mother did....."

Heero hugged Duo as he began to weep. "But.. he's my son.. He's always mine... He'll be back.. I'll be here until he does...."

Engel heard loud voices of men, and a bright warm light was in his face. He woke up as the blinding sun greeted him. He woke up inside an old car in a junk yard. He hidden his guns and began to walk out. 'Where do I go now?' He heard a jet fly overhead as he smiled and now knew where he was going.

Engel pick pocket enough money to board a flight shuttle to Germany. While on the plane he asked a man if he could use his laptop. He was sitting next to the man, which agreed to let him use it. Engel hacked back into the database and located the city where Duo 'died.'

After that, Engel had a mission of his own..

"Find my real father.. Mission Accepted!"

-To be continued.

Spazmastic: Ok, before someone asks, Engel will find his father but how? You'll just have to wait and see, ;D But Engel has tricks, c'mon you live with 5 former Gundam pilots, assassins, and you're not going to learn a thing or two? Heheh... Ask away! :D Thanks for the reviews, ^_^
