AN: Hello, everybody, I'm back again. ^_^ *waves* You can thank a physics
field trip for the chapter you're about to read. 'Why?' you might ask, 'Am
I thanking a physics field trip for a chapter?' BECAUSE!! I said so^_^.
No j/k. The bus ride there and back (4 hrs.) gave me the time to work on
the chapter some ^_^. So instead of studying for an AP test.I wrote, yea
me ^_^ *pumps arm in victory* Forgive how long it took for an update.
AN (cont.): This is an aside to Guess(). Our anonymous flamer, you probably haven't read this far (you've probably also noticed that your 'review'/em.em.FLAME never showed up, that would be because we DELETE anonymous flames.if you're gonna flame us.at least have the guts to sign your name to it!!!), more than likely you never read any of the story, but Angel, isn't a pointless character and NO I don't wish I was like her. Most 'perfect' people bug me. I'd rather be more like Sam or Amara, but that's beside the point (and it's cuz I already know a bunch of their adventures.I even have them written down.but that's later too, so yeah.)
"Grandmother?"
"Hello, Angel. You may come into the room you know."
"Okay," Angel said as she walked into the room and sat down beside her grandmother. "Will you tell me about Deathscythe and Gundams now?"
"Yes, Angel, I will."
* * * * * * * * * * * *
"Dave can pilot Deathscythe," Angelica stated simply.
"Dave???" Tristan questioned her in disbelief.
"Yes, Dave."
"But.but."
"No buts, Dave has piloted Deathscythe with the simulators.he's on the same footing as the rest of us."
"I'm still not so sure about it, Deathscythe's pilot was supposed to be our top pilot who isn't related to the family."
"I know Tristan but there simply isn't time to train somebody else to pilot Deathscythe."
"Are you sure?"
"Yes, Tristan, I'm very sure."
"Angel, were you serious when you said you had seen us using them in battle?"
"I was."
"Was Deathscythe there?"
"Yes."
"Was Dave piloting it?"
"I don't know, Tristan, I simply don't know," Angelica said with a shake of her head. "But who else could it have been? Nobody else is trained to pilot them. We haven't allowed anyone else near the simulators. Dave really is our only option."
"Well."
"Come on, Tristan! Just say 'yes'; he'll be part of the royal family soon enough. And we're going to need all the help we can get. Deathscythe is a very powerful Gundam."
"Okay, Angel, anything for you. But make sure you keep this quiet. Inform the others; everything else is to be secondary, from this moment we devote our time to training with the Gundams."
"Okay," said Angel. "I'll tell Dave that the Gundams are real. Not just some simulation. I'll find the others; when do you want us to meet you to begin the tests?"
"Will two hours give you enough time?"
"I think so; we'll meet you in the simulator room in two hours. Are you going to find the scientists? Or do you want me to let them know as well?"
"I'll take care of the scientists."
"Okay," Angel found herself saying once again as she finally turned to leave. Suddenly a thought came to her and she spun around quickly, "Tristan?"
"Yes, Angel?"
"Don't trust Margaret. At least not for a while, I'm getting bad vibes from her. This may tear our family and planet apart."
"I hope your wrong, Angel. I really hope you're wrong."
"So do I, Tristan, so do I." With that Angel finally left the chamber and Tristan sat down on this throne with a heavy sigh.

LADY WILLIAM'S CHAMBER.
Seven men and women sat in a semi-circle in Sakeena William's chamber discussing the engagement of Angelica and Dave.
"Why in Veirnon's name would she EVER want to marry that BAKA!?!" Li Fai demanded. (Li Fai is Wufei. I looked it up. Li means strength and Fai means beginning, so.beginning strength. I couldn't find any other Chinese names!!)
"Oh, don't be sore, Li-koi, just because Dave has been beating you in the training rooms recently." Abira admonished. (Abira is Amara, who you'll learn more about later.) "I hate to admit it but Dave is a good man. He'll make a good husband for Queen Angelica."
"As much as I hate to disagree with Abira, this time I do. Dave is very nice and he looks good with Angelica. He brings out the best in her." Jemina added with a smile. (Jemina is Samantha, and both names mean to listen or be listened to. You'll also learn more about Samantha later on. In fact.so I don't have to keep typing it, I'll just tell you now. You'll learn more about all of the girls later on.)
One by one, the other four people in the room nodded their approval of the engagement; first, Triton (Trowa), then Curtis (Curtis is Quatre, and Curtis means courteous, which seemed appropriate for Quatre.), Palmira (Tamera), and finally Sakeena (Serenity).
Sakeena, or Lady Williams, sat in quietly in her chair with a pad of paper taking notes on ideas for the wedding. Listening to the others argue she decided she would need to speak with Angelica to discuss the colors for the wedding. As if on cue she heard a knock at the door. Sakeena arose from her seat and crossed the room to the door. When she opened it she saw a flustered Angelica herself standing there.
Looking over her shoulder, Sakeena announced, "Guess who just got her?"
All discussion ceased when the others looked up and saw that it was Angelica standing there. The women all got up and crowded around Angelica offering her congratulations and praise on the engagement. Angelica's face bore a look of pain as more and more compliments came, but they didn't stop until an annoyed Li fai, annoyed with the 'women's' talk yelled, "SHUT UP!! Can't you women tell that she has something that she needs to say?"
Everybody looked at Li Fai and he just shrugged his shoulders. They then looked back and Angelica and saw the look of pain on her face. Jemina was the first to ask, "Angelica, what's wrong?"
Angelica shook her head and crossed the room to take a seat near the men. She then took a deep breath and began, "Everybody? We need to get the Gundams ready."
Not a sound was heard as everyone in the room stared at Angelica. The first to break the silence was Triton, "Why?"
Angelica let out a huge sigh and said, "Because Vilandi wants to marry me. However, I had already said, 'yes,' to Dave and I don't love Vilandi. Vilandi threatened war if I don't marry him though. I had a vision too."
"A vision? What kind of vision?" Abira questioned her.
"A vision where we were at war, with the Gundams, ALL of the Gundams. The Gundams were completed and fully operational and the fighting was terrible."
"Is Vilandi really going to start a war because you won't marry him?" Jemina asked.
"According to my vision? Yes, he will," answered Angelica.
"When?" Curtis asked.
"Soon."
"What do we need to do?" Li Fai asked.
"Well, in about an hour we need to meet Tristan in the simulator room. We'll train on the simulators and the mechanics will finish the work that needs to be completed on the Gundams. When the work on the Gundams is finished, we'll begin practice for real."
"Angelica?" said Palmira.
"Yes?"
"Are we going to win?"
"I don't know."

IN THE LAB
*BUZZ*
"J-MAN!!! GRAB THE DOOR!!" yelled Dokter S.
Doctor J., better known as J-Man to his fellow professionals, crossed the outer room of the laboratory where the five men spent a majority of their time working on the Gundams. Ten mechanical suits designed for Angelica, the Queen; Tristan, her brother and the King; Jemina, the Queen's closest friend; Triton, the King's military advisor; Palmira, Triton's cousin; Curtis, the royal diplomat; Sakeena, Curtis's future wife; Li Fai, the royal scholar; Abira, the Queen's protector; and a tenth Gundam that was designed for the best pilot among the Veirnon people.
When Doctor J. reached the other side of the room he opened the door to the outside. Standing on the other side of the threshold stood his nephew Tristan.
"Your Majesty! What a pleasant surprise! Did you stop by to check our progress on the Gundams?"
"Unfortunately not Uncle. I've come to tell you the Gundams need to be completed by the end of next week."
"But why, Tristan?"
"Because Vilandi has threatened war on Veirnon. Angelica had a vision. Vilandi is just threatening. He really means to do it."
"Okay, Tristan, but I need one thing to complete the task."
"Yes?"
"We are going to need two full time mechanics."
"I can do better than that. All of the pilots will help you, including myself and Angelica. Plus Howard and Doktor S.'s niece. That makes 12 full-time mechanics as well as you five."
"That is wonderful news! But, we only have 9 pilots."
"Dave will be piloting Deathscythe."
"Is he going to marry Angelica?"
"Yes."
"Wonderful, wonderful. Well I need to get back to work and tell the others."
"Alright, good-bye Uncle. We'll be back in 1 hour to begin work on the simulators." Tristan waved at his Uncle and went to find the rest of the pilots. There was much work to be done.
* * * * * * * * * * * *
"What about the war Grandmother?"
"That is a story for tomorrow Angel."
Okay, I admit it.I couldn't think of anything for what come next. Sorry it took so long. But I've been rather busy and couldn't help it. Hope to get the next part of the chapter soon. Until then.reread it if u liked it^_^
