Chapter 12
Koji looked at Timmy carefully. He knew, but did he care? Of course not. Love? Ha, like he actually knew what that was. To him there was no such thing. He just wanted Lily. He needed Lily.
Lily looked up at her brother, who had ripped off the sleeve of his shirt and placed it over her wound. Maybe it would be best if she died. Then she wouldn't have to put up with the pain of knowing that she had deceived them her friends. They trusted her and yet she kept her biggest secret from them.
"You...you were engaged to my sister." Timmy's piercing blue and purple eyes stared straight into Koji's. "That night..."
~ "Koji, tadaima!" Lily shouted out. She looked around the big house in search of him. "I have the papers for our wedding." The day for the wedding was near. Only one more week and she and him could live happyily. She would be with the one person that she wanted more than anything to be with. She traveled up the stairs and opened the door to his room. The horror in her eyes was enough to make a whole fleet of soldiers cry. Her eyes filled with tears and she felt her body running out of the house. The sight of Koji making out with the new soldier, Amelia, made her feel sick to the stomach. She fell on her knees. Timmy, who had seen her run out of the house, shook his head and vowed to get revenge for his sister.~
"So what?" Koji spat out. "What's it matter? No one could care about a little bitch like her anyway. All I need her for is a toy."
"That little bitch is my friend!! And no one uses her in such a way!!" Duo shouted as he jumped up and punched Koji right in the face. He was pissed now. Lily was his friend and he would always stick up for her, no matter what.
Koji stumbled back and tenderly touched his nose, which was bleeding. Koji glared at Duo and growled. "You have no idea what you have just done. No one has ever landed a punch on me before."
"Koji...no!" Lily shouted. Timmy fell back and Duo felt himself pushed to the side as Lily was nailed with about five blows right in the stomach. She fell back, more blood spilling. "Koji...if you want to fight someone then...leave these boys out of it. They have nothing to do with any of this. This fight... is between me and... you." She struggled to get back up but Timmy grabbed her.
"Lily...iye. Dame! You'll only get hurt even more."
"Oniichan...I have to. This...this is my fight."
"Iye! Lily-chan..."started Nikki, "this is our fight. You are my friend...my best friend, almost like a sister. He hurt you and so he hurt me too. I will never let you fight alone." She smiled down at Lily and silently vowed to always be there for her, right beside her. Lily looked around at the g-boys and saw the same look and vow in their eyes, and she couldn't help but let a few tears fall down her cheeks.
"Nikki-chan...minna..."
"Sir..." a soldier burst through the door and looked at Koji. "The base...it's set to self destruct in fifteen minutes. We need to evacuate."
"What?" He looked at all the pilots. "I will get you all next time. Oh...and if you were wondering about our invasion of your plans..." Koji smirked. "I didn't kidnap Mariemaia for no reason at all."
"A bug..." Lily's eyes opened wide. She wiped the tears from her eyes and watched Koji.
"Hai." Alarms sounded off around the base in warning of the explosion. He pulled out another gun and shot Lily again, then he ran off.
"Lily, are you alright?" Lily looked up at her brother, but as her vision got blurry and the last thing she saw was everyone gather around her before she blanked out.

Lily woke up and looked around what seemed to be a hospital room. The smell of medicine filled her nostrils and she sighed. Tubes were hooked to her and she was bandaged up. Voices could be heard outside her door.
After a few moments, Timmy and Daichi had entered the room. Timmy smiled at his little sister. She wished he wouldn't. She had screwed up big time. She probably lost the only friends that she would ever gain.
"Hey Lily-chan...'bout time ya woke up," her brother said cheerfully.
"How long have I been out?" Lily asked, sitting up and ignoring her brother's cheerful tone. She just wasn't in the mood.
"A week. Hey listen...Okaasan called."
"Honto? How is everyone?" Lily looked at her brother, cheering up just a little.
"They're great, demo...Okaasan wants me to return for a little while. Daichi was gonna come with me. I'd ask you to come also but I remember saying you wouldn't return until you've defeated Koji. You'll be alright, ne?"
"Of course. I'm a big girl." The three soldiers smiled, Lily forcing hers.
"Well, as long as you're sure, Imouto. Take care of yourself. Me and Daichi are leaving tonight. You are also free to go tonight. Don't do anything stupid."
"Love ya too, Oniichan." Lily smiled. "Just go. I'll be perfectly fine." She wasn't really sure about that, but she would find out. If anything, she was going to leave as soon as she could. She just couldn't bare to face those boys. How could she have done such a stupid thing?
"Alright." He kissed his sister on the forehead. "Ja ne, Lily-chan." He turned and both he and Daichi left the room. Lily sighed and laid back down. A nurse came in and Lily smiled.
* * *
"I heard that Lily was out of the hospital," Duo told everyone as he ran into the small room. Everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at him, then at each other. Finally they could talk to her, and see how she was doing.
"Then lets go visit her," suggested Trowa.
"Hai," came everyone's response, and they all left.
* * *
Lily stood in her apartment, millions of boxes outlining the walls. She sighed and wiped her arm across her forehead. She hated to leave them, but she had no choice. They probably wouldn't trust her anymore, not after she kept such a secret from them.
"What are you doing?" She swung around and found all five g-boys and Nikki staring at her. Duo approached her. "Why is everything packed away?"
"Uh...well you see...I didn't think that I should stay around any longer. I've been enough of a pain for all of you, and I should have told you about Yuriko. It just wasn't right of me. I should have died that night. I don't deserve..." Lily felt herself pulled into a hug and looked up at Duo.
"You deserve very much to be here. I'm glad you didn't die, and you probably had your reasons for hiding your identity like that. We aren't mad at you Lily..." He pushed away and looked down at her. "Not one bit. We want you to stay." Lily noticed a tear fall down her cheek and then she saw the same thing with all the other g-boys and Nikki.
"But...where will I stay? With Relena no longer supporting me, it will take awhile for me to earn money to pay for this apartment."
"You can stay with me," said Nikki.
"Honto?" Lily looked at Nikki , who just smiled and nodded. Lily felt tears and started to cry. "Domo arigatou minna. Domo arigatou. Ano... I have to tell you about my identity." Everyone looked at her. "Well, at first Yuriko was just a cover up for when I had missions dealing with people who knew about who I really was." Each g-boy raised and eyebrow and Nikki stiffled a laugh.
"You guys... I can't believe that you don't know. Lily is a princess of Mars."
"A what?!" The look on each g-boys face was priceless and even Lily laughed slightly.
"Anyway, then Yuriko was used as a disguise for Koji. Because of what he had done, everyone thought that it was best if I just hide from him for awhile. So any mission that I had to do where he was, I would disguise myself as Yuriko. I guess now that he knows though, I don't need the disguise anymore."
Everyone smiled and Duo said, "Well, now that we have that out of the way, everything makes much more sense now." The other g-boys nodded and Lily smiled. They still accepted her. "I guess we should move you out of here."
Lily smiled and nodded. They each grabbed a box and brought them out for Lily. As long as she would stay they were all happy. The smiles plastered on their faces made Lily happy. For once she actually felt like she was part of a family...a real family. And never again would she keep secrets from them. She would tell them everything. No matter what it was.
Koji looked at Timmy carefully. He knew, but did he care? Of course not. Love? Ha, like he actually knew what that was. To him there was no such thing. He just wanted Lily. He needed Lily.
