It's mid morning and Trowa, Duo, Wufei, and Quatre have decided to take turns watching Terry incase she has another nightmare. Quatre is currently on duty and sits reading a book from the late 20th century called "Dragon Prince." He glances up occasionally to see if her monitors change slightly. During one such glance he noticed that her brain waves had slightly changed. He thinks it is maybe a good dream this time but gets the nurse to make sure.
"She is having a calm dream. I'm not sure if it could turn bad or good." the nurse says after checking the print out from the machine.
"I was just checking after what happened this morning. Thank you for clarifying it for me." Quatre gives the nurse one of his smiles that makes most girls heart melt.
"You're very welcome." The nurse smiles and leaves with a light pink coloration to her cheeks.
Quatre smiles as he sits back down picking up his book and continues reading.

She is dreaming. Dreaming things of the past.
She is sitting outside of the factory that was the main entrance for their base where they were kept and trained. She is 14 years old now. She is wearing their usual uniform: green tank top and black spandex. Her hair was up in the usual pony tail she kept it in. It came to her shoulders when up.
Ani had been sent out on a mission and was late to return. Dr. J had gone out to find him and see if he survived.
A black car pulls up and Dr. J steps out of the back alone. Terry's heart nearly stops. She jumps up from her position sitting on a hunk of twisted metal from their practice battles with smaller versions of mobile suits. She runs over to Dr. J and looks at him with a blank expression.
He knows what she wants. "He is alive. You can meet him coming back if you walk to what's left of the Alliance base in the apartment building division." He walks past her heading for the base.
She heads off running at full speed in the direction he had stated. Half way there she saw him coming into view across the field she was running through. He had his head slightly down as he walked with slow and dead steps. She picked up her pace even more at this sight. Something had obviously gone wrong.
Ani doesn't notice her at all until he picks up her quick foot steps. He looks up as his reactions get ready for an attack of some kind. He drops them though as he sees it is Terry. She stops running and starts to walk next to him seeing as he hasn't stopped walking his walk of the dead.
*What's wrong? What happened?* She speaks with worry and concern in her voice as she looks at his face. He changes his gaze from her to the ground in front of him. *Odin?*
Heero stops walking and looks at her. Tears have started to flow down his face. *I killed her.*
A wave of sorrow flows over her as she sees his face and hears his words.

Quatre glances up as the needle of the brain monitor does a few quick strokes and doesn't go back to the way they were. He stands and goes to get the nurse once again. He comes back with her walking in front of him.
She walks over to the monitor and reads the strokes left by the needle. "She is feeling sorrow about something in her dream. VERY strong sorrow." The nurse of about 18 years of age glances at Quatre. "There is no medication we can give her either. We have one for controlling the hormones that create nightmares but not this. I'm sorry but we can't help her." (I have no knowledge of medical terms, names, or any of that stuff. I'm going with what my little brain has picked up from places. )
"Can it cause her harm?" Quatre asks in concern.
"If it turns into a nightmare like the last one she had it can but that is if it does." The nurse walks to the door and exits leaving Quatre alone with Terry again as she goes about her other duties in the hospital.
~~~~
She wishes to put her arms around him but resists. *Killed who?*
*The little girl and her dog, Mary.* His knees give way from grief.
She quickly reaches out and grabs him, holding him in a slightly standing position. She holds him close to her as she lowers him to the ground. She has no way to comfort him. She doesn't know what to do. Tears start to show in her eyes because of her sorrow for him and not being able to help him. All she can think to do is hold him tightly and let him cry.
He clings to her tightly crying out his pain and anger that he had killed her. *I did it. I wasn't watching the Leo and it exploded falling backwards into her apartment building. It's my fault a little girl and her dog are dead.*
She starts rocking him and petting the back of his head, tears making small streams down her face. *You couldn't have known that the Leo was going to do that. Don't beat yourself up over it.*
*I can't forget it! I ended the life of an innocent child!*
*But if you live you can fight to stop wars, Odin! I know what you are thinking of doing and I won't let you do it! Taking your life won't solve anything!* Terry says as she strengthens her hold on Heero, afraid he might try to pull away from her.
Heero looks at her with his tear stained face. *What gives you the right to say what I'll do and not do?!* His eyes are angered.
*I never said what you should do! I am saying that you can make a difference! I already know I won't be the pilot for Wing Gundam. Why do you think I have had training in other areas then you? I'm being trained to be a spy.* Her eyes ask him forgiveness for her not being able to help him any more.
He looks at her for a few seconds and then puts his head in her shoulder while hugging her tightly. *You're right Taika. I can stop the war by fighting. I can stop the killing of innocent people.* Heero had made up his mind that he was going to be the Perfect Soldier and sacrifice his life so that others may live.
~~~~
A single tear rolls down Terry's check as her face contorts to one of a person full of sorrow.
Quatre looks on as pain fills his heart. Terry and Heero had had difficult lives and unfortunately, they both lived a nightmare of memories they can't escape from.
