Chapter 2 - Power Up.Again
Duo threw the dead body out of the car, much to his disgust, and started the car. They drove over the hillside and he turned back around to see Relena holding Heero in her arms, his head resting on her lap. "Relena, where are we headed?"
"Heero, where should we go?" Relena looked up to Duo. "We shouldn't go to any crowded public places, no doubt Wufei will attempt another attack or another COSS assassin will come after Heero.
Heero slowly raised his head, his vision was blurred and all he saw was the roof of the car and the words from Relena lips flow across the room. It seemed that he saw the sound waves and reached out with his hand trying to touch them. Then he comprehended the question and looked up to Relena. "Go out of the city, I have my lab which holds Wing-ZX." He slumped back down into Relena's lap and she stroked his head, brushing back his hair with her hand.
"Duo, do you still have Deathscythe?" Relena knew the answer was no as all the gundam pilots had destroyed theirs, but maybe he had built a new one like Heero had done.
"I started working on one, I only have the plans for it, I still need materials to build it." He looked back to the road and continued out of the large city streets onto the dirt road countryside. "Ok, Heero now where exactly is your lab?" The road was growing thinner and was now down to merely one lane.
"It's at the end of the road, just follow it and it will take you right into the mountainside." The car trudged along into the dense forest area with trees pushing closer and closer onto either side of the car. It wasn't a very comfortable setting, more attackers could leap from the forest onto the car easily and they would be in trouble once again. Luckily, no tragedy fell upon the three companions as the car drove towards the side of the mountain. But it was just solid rock, Duo slammed on the breaks nearly hitting as he saw it was solid rock.
"Heero, it is just a solid mountain. How do we get in?"
"Just drive, you'll see."
"What? Drive into the mountain? Are you crazy Heero?"
"Just do it damnit!" Duo turned away and stepped lightly on the gas edging closer and closer to the mountain, suddenly the ground began to tremble and the road dropped down and went under the mountain.
"Woah, way cool Heero!" Duo laughed as the car dropped down under the mountain into a dimly lit driveway leading into a bright laboratory. The road closed behind them, sealing them inside the mountain. Duo drove on and parked the car in an open space off to the edge of the lab. Relena pulled Heero out of the car and laid him upon a table with Duo's assistance. Heero still lay motionless, only his head turned to the far wall that towered nearly 20 feet high.
"Duo, press the green button on the console." Duo moved over to the console located by the wall. It was littered with hundreds of buttons; the green button was large and located beside another large red button. He laughed lightly as he thought of what would happen if he pushed the red button but he pulled back his hand and slammed down the green button. A large crack was heard as gears moved and the large wall slid open to reveal Wing-ZX, ready to be used and tested. "Now Duo, press the red button." He looked back to Heero as if why he wanted to blow everything up? It seemed that the red button always did that in the movies. But nevertheless he pushed the button and more cracks were heard as gears shifted and another wall opened up on the other side of the lab that he hadn't noticed and there stood a tall black mobile suit. Duo turned to Heero, speechless. "Duo, this is Deathscythe-Hell II."
"My god Heero. How did you, why did you. My god Heero, you're the greatest man." He laughed as he walked up to his new mobile suit. "It looks just like the old one."
"Yea, I tried to keep its basic frame the same. I added a few upgrades to it though; it has fist-mounted machine guns on its hands as well. They can be useful." Heero turned over and grinned at Duo who just seemed to look on in awe at his new mobile suit. Relena however had ventured around the lab and made her way to a television set, she turned it on finding that her picture was on the news with the title: MISSING, in large letters under her picture.
"Guys, get over here." Duo ran over immediately and Heero struggled to get off of the table wincing in pain and he stumbled over to the television. They all went silent as the newsman began to speak.
"Relena Peacecraft is presumed dead or has been taken hostage. The authourities assume that she was killed or taken by COSS forces as he driver was found dead on the side of the road. I have received information that she was with former gundam pilot Heero Yuy. The forces have come to the conclusion that Heero is with COSS and that he is presumed heavily dangerous. We will give you more updates as they arise on ESB." Heero moved over punching the television hard shattering the screen.
"This is bullshit! Again I'm thought be an enemy to the world." Heero threw the shattered television off of the table and looked around in anger for something else to smash. "Let's go Duo, get in your gundam." Duo smiled to him and ran up the loading ramp and sat down in the cockpit of the gundam. "Relena, I don't know what you should do, you can stay here if you wish. Just don't die, please don't. I have to go and settle some things with COSS. and Wufei." He turned but felt Relena's hands holding on to him and spinning him around into a kiss. It was long and Heero nearly forgot of his problems before pulling away and hugging Relena tightly. "Eveything's going to be ok."
"I love you Heero." She said as her hands slipped away from his. He turned and smiled to her. Relena knew he loved her too but Heero just couldn't say it, Relena knew why and knew that Heero would come back to her. Heero moved up the ramp and jumped into his gundam.
"Alright Duo, just follow my lead. We're going to wreak havoc on COSS." He spoke into the commlink. "Computer: Open launch bays and commence launch sequence for both Deathscythe-Hell II and Wing-ZX." The computer beeped and more gears shifted as the launch bays opened and then with one swift jolt they were sent into the sky together to fight for freedom on last time.
Duo threw the dead body out of the car, much to his disgust, and started the car. They drove over the hillside and he turned back around to see Relena holding Heero in her arms, his head resting on her lap. "Relena, where are we headed?"
