Chapter 5

"Mariemaia should be on the second floor in room 526B," explained Yuriko, signing off of one of the OZ computers. She turned around in the chair that she was sitting in and stared at the G-boys. Finally their first mission together and Yuriko had to admit that they weren't all that bad, but she still didn't like them, or so she thought.

"Ok. Shall we go then?" asked Duo. Yuriko nodded and the six pilots ran off to head to the second floor. No need to ask. That one was a given.

* * *

"What? Who the hell is that person?" Koji pointed onto a screen at Yuriko who was obviously directing the boys where to go. "And where the hell is Lily? I know she's still alive!" The soldiers that he was yelling at just scurried around the room and tried to figure out who the new person was.

"Sir, she..." he emphasized the word she, "is a new pilot training with the other pilots."

"What? You mean to tell me that there is another gundam pilot out there? And what do you mean she?"

"Well it seems that this pilot's name is Yuriko and the records have her down as a girl. No one has ever seen what she looks like except for a few people," explained the soldier. "She is very skilled and hasn't been beaten once yet."

"Hmm...hasn't been beaten yet, huh?" He sounded very interested by now. "We'll see about that. Is there anything else about her?" The soldier looked on the screen again and read some more of Yuriko's profile.

"Well, it says that she is somehow connected to Lily Hino but it doesn't say how sir."

"Connected to Lily, huh? Find out more about this girl. I think I might go and have a small chat with her. At least the boys showed up. Lily probably knew it was a trap." Koji smiled and walked off. The soldier stared at him and sighed.

"God, I hope Yuriko can beat that bastard. I'll have to visit her today."

"She your girlfriend Timmy?" asked another soldier. Timmy shook his head. "Wait! Did you say that she was connected to Lily Hino?" Timmy smiled and nodded. "Isn't Lily your little sister?"

"Yup and I'm very proud of her."

"Don't worry Timmy. We'll shut down OZ and that bastard that now runs it. I hate Koji. He just doesn't deserve to live. Especially with what happened to your sister."

"Damn right he doesn't." Timmy was glad that his friend Daichi was here to help. Together they would defeat that bastard. For Lily and Yuriko. It would even be good for the entire Universe.

* * *

"Are we almost there?" asked Duo.

"Almost. Hold on." Yuriko ran to a door and surely it was the room. There on the door was 526B. "Found it." She tried to open the door but it was locked. "Damn." Reaching under one of her veils, she pulled out a small hair clip. Kneeling down, she started to unlock it and opened the door. "Mariemaia?"

On a small cot in the room, Mariemaia was sleeping. Yuriko walked over and kneeled next to the cot. She gently shook Mariemaia in attempt to wake her up.

"Mariemaia, sweetie. Please wake up. Onegai?" The g-boys couldn't believe how soft, sweet and caring Yuriko's voice was. She sounded so innocent and full of love. Was this the real Yuriko? Was this the Yuriko that they would probably never get to know? They liked this Yuriko. It just didn't seem like her at all. She was completely different, the complete opposite of the Yuriko that they knew.

"Hm? Lily?"

"Lily? No sweetie. It's me Yuriko." Mariemaia opened her eyes and looked up at Yuriko. She seemed to frown but they couldn't quite tell in the dark room that they were in.

"Yuriko? Where's Lily?" Mariemaia sat up and glanced at all the g-boys.

"Lily's at home right now resting. She's very much beaten right now and needs to rest. You can see her later. Right now we need to get out of here." Mariemaia smiled and nodded, pushing her frown aside. "You'll go with Quatre back to the gundam base. Lady Une will then take you to visit Lily. Ok?"

"I understand." Yuriko picked Mariemaia up and handed her to Quatre.

"Quatre, take good care of her. I'll have your head if anything happens to her." Quatre smiled.

"I understand Yuriko. I'll protect her as best I can." With that Quatre was out and headed back to his mobile suit carrier.

"Alright. You four will come with me and using our gundams we will attack who did this."

"Who made you boss?" Wufei asked her.

Yuriko glared but then took a deep breath and said calmly, "Wufei, if you have any suggestions then please, be my guest." She smirked when she didn't get an answer. "So my plan it is then. Anyone else disagree with it?" When she got nervous no from everyone they all ran off to finish their mission.

* * *

"Comfortable Mariemaia?" asked Quatre as he set her on a seat.

"Yes Quatre. Thank you for asking." Quatre smiled and sat in his own seat. Pushing a button, he spoke into a speaker.

"This is Quatre. I have Mariemaia and am now headed back to the base. Yuriko and the other pilots will be taking care of the base." He looked back at Mariemaia and his craft took off for home.

* * *

"Did ya hear that Une?" asked Noin. "They found Mariemaia and are headed back now."

"Good. Now what about the battle?"

"We haven't heard anything about that yet. All I know is that Yuriko and the other boys will be taking care of the base," answered Sally. "But I'm sure the battle will start soon, though." Une just stared at the screen sadly.

"I hope they'll be okay. I seriously do."

* * *

"Everyone ready?" asked Yuriko. Five gundams stood outside of the OZ base, ready to battle, Yuriko in front of all of them. She really did seem like a leader, not that the other pilots very much appreciated that. It was their first mission and already Yuriko was taking charge, which was usually Heero's job. He didn't say anything though. He had to admit though. She was very quick and smart when it came to strategies.

"I know I am," answered Duo. "Let's go." Duo though,of course, with his brainless mind, was one of the very few who didn't even think anything of it.

"Right." Yuriko's gundam took off at the base and the remaining four followed suit. Taking the glaive off her gundam's back, Firestorm, Yuriko sliced into the OZ base, Duo following suit with his scythe.

Wing Zero destroyed a section of the base with its beam cannon and Heavyarms and Nataku just randomly shot anywhere possible.

* * *

"What's going on out there?" Koji stumbled to the side when he felt the building shake again. Getting up, he resumed running to the control room.

"You, what's going on?" He pointed to Timmy and watched as the soldier scurried to figure it out.

"Sir, it seems that we're under attack," Daichi answered for Timmy. Timmy just looked up at his friend, happy that someone knew what was going on. But then again, it was Daichi. He was always ahead of everyone else.

"Under attack? By who?"

"It looks like five gundams sir," came Timmy's voice. Now it was his turn, and it really helped to know who exactly was attacking them. "It seems they got Mariemaia and started an attack. What should we do sir?" Not that he cared about what they should do. It was none of his concern to begin with anyway. He was only in this for his sister.

"Send out the Leo's of course." All soldiers ran trying to get their jobs done and to save their base. One by one Leo's were sent out and each time they were destroyed. Daichi and Timmy each slipped to the side.

"Looks like Yuriko and the boys are doing just fine," explained Timmy. Daichi nodded his head.

"Your sister's friend is pretty skilled. I wonder how she'd rank with a battle against your sister. Watch, Lily would still win." Timmy laughed and the two broke into the Leo room. In a way Lily would win, but at the same time so would Yuriko. More likely it would end up a tie.

"Anyway, we have work to do. We have to shut down the Leo's before they send any more out." Daichi nodded and they went to the main computer. "If we can program this right then it will shut down every Leo for a total of twenty four hours."

"Then leave that to me," commented Daichi. He started typing at the computer when he accidentally typed in the wrong thing. "Uh oh. What did I do?" Now mind you, it wasn't normal for Daichi to screw up on the computer but you have to remember. They were under pressure at the moment and in quite a bit of a hurry.

"I don't know. What did you do?" Timmy and Daichi were now at the highest peak of panic.

"Self destruct will now commence in 30 seconds," the computer blurted out.

"Self destruct?" the two chorused. "RUN!!" They started running out of the base, obviously going out the wrong door. Right there, just above them, was the battle, but they had no time to turn back now.

"No time to run anywhere else." Timmy grabbed Daichi's arm and they ran as fast as they could only to be thrown forward by the explosion.

* * *

"What the heck?" Yuriko looked down at the explosion and gasped. There she saw Timmy and Daichi flying forward. "You four. I have to help someone. It will only take a sec," she told the four pilots.

"Go for it," exclaimed Duo. "We can take care of things up here for a few seconds. Just go."

"Thanks."

* * *

"Well, at least now we won't have to worry about them sending out anymore Leo's," Daichi explained and laughed nervously when Timmy glared at him.

"Hm. Well I guess you're right. And it does seem that Koji was caught in the explosion." As soon as he said that a shuttle flew up just above them. Inside you could see a very angry Koji. "Guess I spoke too soon." Timmy and Daichi groaned, watching the shuttle fly away.

"Watch out!" The two boys looked ahead of them and saw a red gundam block a wall of fire from hitting them. It dissipated and the gundam Firestorm looked down at them. "Are you two okay?"

"Perfectly fine," shouted Timmy. "Mind if we join the ride?" Yuriko smiled and opened up her hatch. The two boys climbed up to the cockpit and smiled at her.

"Hey Yuriko," greeted Timmy. "How ya been?"

"Just fine Timmy. Perfectly fine. Let's go."

* * *

"Did you guys just see that?" asked Duo. "I know she said that she was gonna help someone but I didn't expect it to be two guys. And she's even giving them a ride."

"You're kidding me, right?" asked Trowa. "I thought that she hated guys." He would have looked for himself but he was a bit busy with his own problems.

"Maybe family or something," explained Heero. He didn't even bother to really think about it. He just wanted to take care of his own problems and then he would see what was up with Yuriko and the two guys.

"We'll find out later," put in Wufei. "Right now we have a battle to finish." Each pilot agreed and so their conversation ended and they just continued to fight, explosions erupting all around them.

* * *

Yuriko pushed a few buttons in her gundam and wings just like Deathscythe Hell's, only red, spread from Firestorm's back. Yuriko then had the glaive put back and took flight. "Everyone move," she ordered the other pilots.

"No way Yuriko. You need our help. Don't try to fight this battle by yourself," explained Heero.

"I said MOVE!!" Finally each pilot moved. The hands for Yuriko's gundam flipped back and tucked itself into the forearm. "You guys wanted to know why I call my gundam Firestorm, well here's your answer." Out of both arms fire sprayed out and engulfed all the Leo's, causing them to explode. Firestorm's hands returned back to their original place.

"Whoa. Yo Yuriko," came Duo's voice. "Talk about cool. Ya got to let me see your gundam sometime." In the back she could hear Daichi and Timmy laughing.

"Sure Duo. Like I would ever trust you with my gundam," came Yuriko's response and she could hear Duo sigh, making her draw on a secret smile. "Besides," came her soft voice. "I'd rather try yours." On the screen, she laughed when she saw Duo's eyes go wide.

"You...you spoke calmly and...and you said something nice. My God! Plus you laughed. What has this world come to?" Yuriko laughed again and Duo couldn't help but smile. Yuriko even saw the other three pilots smile. She didn't understand it herself really though. It made no sense. She was never this open with guys. Then why?

"Let's go home," ordered Heero and everyone took off. Yuriko was a little relieved. She didn't want to be anymore open with them. She hated to admit it, but it scared her.

"Leaving already Yuriko?" came a very familiar voice.

"NO!!" Yuriko's gundam turned around and there in a shuttle stood Trieze. She could hear gasps from the other pilots and grinded her teeth together.

"What do you want Trieze?" demanded Yuriko. "You should be dead now."

"Oh I should, huh?" Trieze smiled.

"Why? Why did you leave your daughter like that you bastard?"

"Daughter? I have no idea what you're talking about."

"Don't lie to me."

"Leave. Our fight will take place another day..."he paused, smiled then said, "Yuriko." Yuriko felt her anger flare but took a deep breath.

"Omae o korosu, Trieze. I promise you that."

"Best keep your promise Yuriko. I will always remember. Now go." Yuriko growled and flew off, followed by the remaining four pilots.
