They got back to his house and got in contact with George, Argo, and
Chibodee. All of them were fine and didn't know anything that had
happened. None of their Gundams were missing either.
"This doesn't make any sense. Why are we the only ones being targeted?" Domon said frustrated. After lunch the phone rang again. No one wanted to answer it. Domon finally picked it up.
"Hello?" He asked waiting for someone weird to answer. "Mr. Domon, has there been any word on where Sai Saici is?" Domon was relieved when it was one of the Priests.
"Yes, he's here. He showed up yesterday." Domon answered them. Rain watched Sai Saici try to slink away.
"May we speak to him?" The other one asked. "Yeah but go easy on him. He didn't run away. We're having some problems with people and Gundams missing." He explained. He turned to Sai and handed him the phone.
"I even helped you with these two so be grateful." He said quietly. Sai Saici still wasn't overly happy about it though. As he was talking on the phone Rain and Domon left the kitchen.
"So are we going to send him back whenever we leave for earth?" Rain asked Domon. He shrugged back. "I quess considering he can't come with us." Domon answered. Sai got off the phone and came into the living room where they were. He was muttering the whole way.
"Well, looks like I go back tomorrow." He sighed loudly. "This isn't fair." He added. Domon tried not to smile at Sai's antics. The phone rang in the kitchen. Domon headed in there to answer it.
"Is Sai Saici there?" Came the stranger's voice. "Who is this?" Domon demanded, knowing it was the voice from before. "You already know. Your little friend told you who we are." They answered. Domon let out an exasperated sigh that sounded more like a growl. "Where's Kyoji?" He asked in a low threatening tone. There was a laugh on the other end of the line.
"You're already planning a trip to earth so you'll find out then." They answered him. "Okay fine, if you're going to be like that, at least tell me why you're so interested in us?" He said in not as harsh a tone. "It's not so much you but the technology." And with that they hung up. Domon angrily slammed the phone down. Rain and Sai Saici ran in.
"It was them again, wasn't it?" Rain asked him. He walked over to the window. "They're watching us. I don't know where they are, but they know Sai Saici is here and that we are planning leave for earth tomorrow." He said quietly. "So what are we going to do then? Since they know so much." Rain asked coming over next to him.
"Well we don't seem to have much choice but to go. They don't seemed to be interested in Sai Saici anymore." He explained to her. "But this seems like a trap though." Rain mentioned. Domon looked over at her. "I know, but we don't have any choice. I can't go alone because then they will take you. But if you're with me then I'll have some way of knowing you are safe. We have to find Kyoji. This is the only way." He said back. Rain looked down still not sure what to think of all of this. Domon clasped her hand in his own getting her to look back up.
"Rain, I'm not going to let anything happen to you. Trust me." He added. "It's not you who I don't trust, it's them. And this time I'm not the only one they want. They want both of us." She pointed out. Domon couldn't think of what to say to that. He noticed something suddenly.
"Hey where's Sai Saici?" Domon wondered outloud. Rain looked around the kitchen and noticed he was missing as well. They looked in the living room and then the two bedrooms. They finally found him in Domon's room, under the bed.
"Sai Saici what are you doing under there?" Domon questioned pulling him out. "These people are crazy. I don't want to have anything to do with this plan." He declared struggling to get away.
"Would yah calm down, they aren't after you anymore." Domon told him putting him down on the floor. "But aren't you and sis going to earth to find them?" He asked looking up at Domon. He actually looked hurt. "Yeah, we have to go." He answered him. Sai Saici shook his head back and forth and grabbed Domon's leg.
"No, you can't go. Who knows what might happen." He said back. Domon wasn't sure what to do. Rain came in and knelt down next to Sai. "Domon can handle them Sai Saici." She told him comfortingly. "You'd better be careful then. You can't trust them." He told Domon looking up at him seriously. Domon nodded back. The rest of the evening was very quiet. There were no more phone calls either. Rain slept in Domon's room while Domon and Sai Saici slept in the other bedroom again. This night wasn't like last night though. Domon stared at the ceiling most of the night. He just couldn't fall asleep. He got up and headed to his room and opened the door slightly. He couldn't tell if Rain was asleep. He was questioning whether his decision going to earth was such a good idea now. But there was nothing else that they could do. These people had plenty of opportunities to take Rain last night if they wanted to. He only hoped that he wasn't put into a situation where he couldn't protect her. He shut the door and headed back to the other room. But he still didn't get any sleep. *~* The next day they headed out to the space port to first see Sai Saici off and then waited for their own flight. It wasn't much of a wait. Domon kept looking around to see if they were being watched but in such a large place, it was hard to tell. Rain didn't move from his side the entire time. Once they boarded it would be a couple of hours till they made it to earth. Rain managed to get some sleep on the way there but Domon refused to sleep. Several hours later they landed in Neo Germany. By the time they got to their hotel it was dark. The hotel was in the city of Berlin. It was nicer then what they normally stayed in. They were on the 11th floor with a nice view of the city. Rain placed her suitcase on the bed and opened it. "How long do you think we'll be here?" She asked Domon. He looked out the window at the city. "I don't know, depends on if these people contact us." He answered. She had noticed how quiet he was the whole way here and how tired he looked. "Mm, Domon why don't you lay down for awhile. You haven't gotten any rest since we left." She suggested. He thought about it for a minute but decided against it. "No, I'm fine." He remarked continuing to look out the window. The city wasn't in the best shape. It had probably been damaged from last years Gundam fight. Although it seemed as though they had been working on fixing things up. There were some new structures near the hotel. Domon wandered if they were still being watched. Rain sat down on the bed and turned on the TV to watch the news. Domon sighed heavily and went over to his bed. Things seemed quiet enough for him to rest his eyes at least. The phone of the room rang before he got to the bed. He glanced at Rain from the side and she looked back a bit nervous. He went over and answered it.
"We aren't planning anything for tonight. Your better off getting some sleep now. You may not get another chance to rest later." Came that familiar voice. Domon clenched his jaw angrily. He was about to answer when the line went dead. He put the phone back down hard. It caused Rain to jump. He looked over at her. She seemed so concerned, not for herself but for him. What all of this was doing to him. He calmed down and went over to her.
"Domon, please get some rest. You haven't slept and I'm worried about you." She admitted softly. The look in her eyes made him want to take her away right now. He could face this without her. He closed his eyes and finally nodded in agreement. "Okay, Rain." He said sitting down next to her. He leaned back and grabbed the pillow behind them. Then he got comfortable next to her and watched the news. She was content with that much. Within minutes he was asleep. Rain went and turned the light out for him. There wasn't much on the news that interested her. Eventually she turned it off and leaned on Domon's shoulder. Shortly after that she also fell asleep.
"This doesn't make any sense. Why are we the only ones being targeted?" Domon said frustrated. After lunch the phone rang again. No one wanted to answer it. Domon finally picked it up.
