In the Eyes of an Angel Chapter 7

By: Mia Dorothy Rain Sanada Winner Kasshu

Disclaimer: I don't own G Gundam or any of its characters. But I do own most everything that is associated with Kina Motsuya, including her name.

A/N: I'm resurrecting Kyoji, just so I don't confuse you.

Another A/N: This takes place four years after the final battle with the Devil Gundam

Yet another A/N: Kina is not Kyoji's sister, Serena is, but not Kina. It's kinda like Kina and Serena are two different people stuck in one body. It's like the Yugi/Yami thing from Yu-gi-oh. If you don't get it, you'll see.

The room was dark. The lights in the room had been shut off. The darkness sent shivers up and down Rain's back. She didn't wanna do this. But, she was the only one who knew how to get Domon back awake. Serena would be another one, but she wasn't there. It was left up to Rain, and her only.

Rain slowly walked up to Domon's side, 'Oh, Domon. If only….' She stopped herself, 'No, there are no 'if only's' in this world. Let's just hope this works.' Rain prayed as she slowly began to wrap her arm around his.

"Rain! You need me to accomplish this!" Serena's voice called out for her. Rain turned to see Serena running towards her, Player's crest flashing.

"Kina let you come, huh?" Rain smiled at the young girl.

"Not funny. Come on, if I don't help you with this, you're gonna die. Then what will that accomplish? Domon will go psychopathic if he finds out you sacrificed yourself, and then try to kill himself. So, therefore, you'll need my help." Serena explained.

"But won't it kill you?" Rain asked her.

"No, it will only set me back in recovering fully, but that's a long story. But, right now we've got to get Domon awake. You know how to do this right?" Serena asked Rain.

"Yep. Now, let's do it." Rain nodded in agreement, and both of them lifted Domon to his feet.

"This hand of mine is burning red…It's burning grip tells me to grasp victory…." The two girls' chanted as they began to focus their energy to Domon.

Domon heard the two women chanting his attack, and tried to move. Rain and Serena chanted this part over and over again, waiting for him to respond.

"This hand of mine is burning red…It's burning grip tells me to grasp victory…." Serena felt Domon's hand twitch.

"This hand of mine is burning red…It's burning grip tells me to grasp victory…." Another twitch.

"This hand of mine is burning red…It's burning grip tells me to grasp victo…."

Domon perked his head up, "ERUPTING BURNING FINGERS!" He shouted, flashing his King of hearts crest.

"Chill, KOH. You need to sit." Rain pointed out as she and Serena sat him down on the bed.

"Yep, he's back to normal." Kina's voice laughed.

"Kina?" Rain asked, "Where's Serena?"

"That healing process set her back in healing. So, it'll be awhile before you see her again." Kina replied.

"Well, tell her I said thanks." Domon muttered as he sat back down on the bed.

"Don't mention it." She chuckled.

"So, why are you fighting?" Rain asked Kina.

"Because, if Neo-Antarctica wins the championship, then Serena and I will become separate beings, and live separate lives." Kina explained.

"That's understandable." Domon grunted.

"Hey, is it okay if we come in?" Chibodee whined from outside.

"Just a sec!" Domon hollered back, then turned to Kina, "We offered this to Serena, but she said it was up to you. As you know, you are the holder of the legendary Players crest. Since the Devil Gundam has reappeared, we, the Shuffle Alliance, need your help. Will you stay?" He asked her.

"Gimme a few days to think about it. But I'll remain here on the colony until I make my decision. Is that good enough?" Kina responded, eyes turning hard.

Domon met her glance with the same one, "How long's a 'few days?'"

"Three days."

"Fine. I'll see you then with your decision."

"Good-bye Domon. See ya Rain." Kina said as she turned to leave and headed out the door.

The Fighters saw this and watched her leave. Kyoji and her glance met, but only for a second. Kina wished that he would follow her, but it would only screw things up. She turned her head and continued to walk down the hallway.

On her way to the hotel she was staying at, she went through the pros and cons of joining the Shuffle Alliance. Part of her told her that she should, and the other part told her not to trust no one.

"Excuse me, Miss? Have you seen a tall man with long red hair and a French accent?" A young girls voice asked her.

Kina looked up at the girl. She had long blonde hair, that was pulled into a ponytail with a pink bow. She wore a pink dress, with a coordinating bow. Kina also noticed that this girl had some jewelry to show that she had wealth and power, "What makes you think that I would know him?"

"Well, I saw you with him and the other Gfighters." She responded, then curtsied, "My name is Marie Louise, the princess of Neo-France."

"No need for the politeness, I know who you are. George is at the hospital with Domon Kasshu, the fighter from Neo-Japan. Oh, and by the way, my name is Kina Motsuya, the fighter from Neo-Antarctica." Kina responded as she passed the young girl to head to her hotel.

"Merci!" Marie exclaimed as she ran off towards the hospital, but stopped. When she turned around, she yelled out, "If you need a place to stay, I'm sure my George can get you a room in the hotel we're staying at."

"That's quite alright. I'm fine where I'm going." Kina yelled back to her and continued her walk. Marie shrugged her shoulders and ran on to the hospital.

While Kina was walking back, she saw something dash out of the corner of her eye. 'Damn that man.' She thought as she raced off to her hotel room, dodging every person she encountered.

"You have a…" The person at the service desk started.

"I know, now gimme my key." Kina ordered the man. He rolled his eyes and tossed her keys at her. Kina dashed off and up the stairs to the fourth floor. When she reached her floor, she saw him.

"I still got it." He muttered, then turned to her, "What took ya so long?"

"Damn you Kyoji." Kina muttered as she pushed her way to the door and unlocked it.

"Well, is okay if I come in?" He asked Kina as she opened the door.

Kina smirked, "Yes, but you hafta stay in the living room. I need a shower, and if you come close to it,"

"I know, you'll hurt me really bad," Kyoji laughed as he followed her in. He whistled, "Nice place. How did you afford this? Isn't Neo-Antarctica poorer than most nations?" He asked.

"Yeah, but I told the government if they didn't provide me a nice room, and I defined nice, then I wouldn't battle for them in the coming year's tournament." Kina laughed as she headed towards her room.

Kyoji relaxed and sat down on the couch, "I'm finally off my feet." He sighed as he slipped off his shoes and lied down on the couch, putting his hands behind his head. The last thing he heard before he fell asleep was water running out of a shower head. He smiled and drifted off to sleep.

Kina finished her shower and stepped out of the bathroom, a bathrobe around her body, and towel wrapped around her head. A single strand of hair fell from the wrap, and water from that strand dripped down her purple robe. She walked through the room, not sure if Kyoji was there or not, "Kyoji?" She whispered as she passed the kitchen. Then something caught her eye. Kina paused and smiled when she saw him, one arm hung over the back of the couch, the other hanging down on the ground. His head was cocked to one side, and his dark brown hair flowed onto the cushion. His eyes were closed, and his mouth was slightly open, but you could hardly hear his breathing. 'He looks like a little kid. Like he's never experience any of the pain that he has.' Kina thought as she slowly walked over to his side. She pulled a quilt out from the nearest closet, and gently put it over him. He stirred a little bit, but went right back to sleep.

Kina laughed as she went back to change into something besides what she was wearing. While she searched for clothes, Kina thought about her decision. She wanted to join them, but with her going through many orphanages, it taught her not to trust anyone. 'Well, it really taught Serena, but.…that's nearly the same thing.' She thought as she pulled out a blue sleeveless tank with a pair of blue jean Capri's. Kina slipped the clothes on, and brushed out her tangled wet hair, before she headed to the kitchen to prepare something to eat.

Finally, after giving up on trying to find something to eat, Kina pulled out the phone book and searched for the local pizza place. She found the number and marked it, then called the number. She ordered a large pizza with pepperoni and extra cheese, with an order of cheesesticks.* Kina gave the operator her address, and asked for the pizza to be delivered. She quietly hung up with the pizza operator, and sunk down in a reclining chair. 'Kyoji's got the right idea. I need some sleep.' She thought as she, too, began to fall asleep.

No soon after did Kina fall asleep, that she heard a knock on the door. She jumped up out of the recliner, hoping that Kyoji was still asleep. She looked over at him, and he was.

After the pizza delivery person left, Kina set the table, and opened the boxes, only to set them in the kitchen.

"So were you gonna tell me about this or were you gonna eat all this by yourself?" Kyoji asked from behind.

Kina whipped around, and smacked Kyoji, "Don't you dare scare me like that again!" She scolded, "Now, help yourself. I was gonna come in and wake you up after I got everything set up." She muttered.

"Don't mind if I do." Kyoji smirked as he grabbed a slice of pizza and started to munch on it, "Do I owe you anything?" He asked her.

"Maybe not now, but when I need it, I'll ask you for it." Kina retaliated as she pushed Kyoji out of the way to grab a slice of pizza.

Kyoji lost his balance when she pushed him, and grabbed Kina's arm. Let's just say Kina wasn't too happy to have the cheese of her not-even-bitten-off-of pizza on her shirt. Kina sat there, glaring at Kyoji.

"What?! You're the one that pushed me over!" Kyoji defended.

"'Cause you were in front of the pizza." She muttered.

"Gosh, if it's that important to ya, I'll go and buy ya a shirt, that ya like."

"Why?"

"Why, what?"

"Did you grab my arm?"

"'Cause. I wanted to."

"Damn you, Kyoji."

"How many times are you gonna say that?"

"Damn you, Kyoji."

"One hundred and one…"

"Shut up Kyoji."

"Why?"

"Just shut up!" Kina yelled as she pinned him on the floor. The two stared at one another, and finally when Kyoji and Kina cam within centimeters of one another's faces….

BOOM!

Kina looked up, "What the hell is that?!"

Kyoji shrugged as he stood up, "Let's call for the Gundams." He suggested.

"Right. Angelic Gundam!" Kina yelled as she ran to her window. She spread her wings and jumped into the Gundam.

"Gundam!" Kyoji called as he snapped his fingers. He also ran to the open window and jumped into Gundam Spiegel.

Kina and Kyoji flew to the place they had heard the crash. Kina stopped suddenly, as she put her hands on her head, "Get out of my head!" She screamed out.

"Kina, what's wrong?" Kyoji turned around to face her. He saw Kina fly to the top of a nearby building and fall to her knees in utter agony.

"Mademoiselle Kina!" A familiar voice called out. Kyoji looked up to see Gundam Rose fly up beside the building.

Kyoji quickly jumped out of his Gundam to open the hatch for Angelic Gundam. When he did, he reached in and pulled out the writhing Kina.

"What is wrong with the Mademoiselle?" George asked Kyoji.

"I dunno, but something's not right." Kyoji looked down at a now still Kina. His face became more frightened when he could feel her body grow colder. He shook her, "Kina! Get up! KINA!" He yelled at her, and continued shaking her awake.

"Watch out you two!" Rain's voice came from behind. Kyoji and George looked over to see Burning Gundam drop Rain off.

"I need you two to help me while Rain helps Kina out!" Domon ordered.

"Right." George exclaimed as he hopped back into Gundam Rose.

Kyoji moved Kina into Rain's care, "Take good care of her." Kyoji told Rain. Rain looked at him puzzled, but nodded. Kyoji turned back around and hopped into Spiegel, then followed Domon and George.

"Do you see anything?" Domon asked the other two.

"No. Where are Monsieur Chibodee and Argo, and young Sai?" George asked Domon.

"They went off in separate directions earlier." Domon responded.

"Well, we better head back." Kyoji pointed out, "No sense getting thrown in jail again for calling out our Gundams."

"True." The other two nodded, and got redressed into normal clothing. They hid their Gundams before the police bailed them out.

Kyoji immediately rushed to the building where he left Kina and Rain. He dashed up the stairs, dodging his way past people, his only mission was to get to the roof. When he arrived on the roof, he found a note from Rain saying that they took Kina to her hotel room. Kyoji leapt from building top to building top, until he knew that he was on Kina's hotel roof. When he reached the hotel, he fell to the fourth story, and leapt through the open window.

"Kyoji!" Rain exclaimed.

"Mr. Kasshu…" The two monks breathed.

"What? I'm here for Kina." He told them.

"You are?" A weak voice came from the door.

All of them whipped around to see Kina. Kyoji ran to her, and let her lean on him, "You shouldn't be up." He whispered to her.

"What happened to you, Miss?" Sai came running to her.

"It's nothing. Just a headache." Kina lied.

'She's lying.' Kyoji thought to himself.

"It's true. She had no other symptoms but ones of those for a Migraine." Rain reassured.

"Oh, really?" Domon's skeptical voice came from behind.

"And what of it?!" Kina threatened.

"You're in no position to threaten me. I'm not being mean, but you need to lie down. Just being a big brother." Domon reassured.

"Yeah, and I say that I'm the bigger brother, and that she should lie down." Kyoji laughed.

"I'm not Serena, right now, that is. So, don't order me around like that!" Kina shouted at the two of them.

Rain walked up to Kina and felt her forehead, then she turned to Kyoji, "Lie her down. Her fever's skyrocketed." Rain ordered.

"Right. Come on." Kyoji grunted as he picked Kina up in his arms. Kyoji could tell she was feeling weak, because she wasn't fighting back.

"You think something's going on with those two?" Chibodee asked.

"That's between them. We shouldn't interfere." Argo said in a calm manner.

"That's right. We've got to get back to our own nations. If there is anymore trouble, let us know. Come Argo." Nastasha demanded.

"No, we need to stay here. If what the fighters say is true, then we need to stay here." Celina pointed out, "My brother said he even sensed something." She added.

Sai ran to Celina's side, "Thanks for coming." He told her, smiling like a goof. The two monks smiled and rolled their eyes.

"Well, you others can at least go back to your hotels. Domon, I'll be back as soon as I can." Rain told him. Domon and the others nodded and left the room.
