In the Eyes of an Angel Chapter 17

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: Right now, the chappies are gonna be a little weird, but they'll get better. I promise!

"Wow, haven't been here for a long time." Kina remarked as she strolled the streets of Neo-Japan.
"Neither have I!" Kina whipped around to see Kyoji standing right behind her, elbow on her shoulder. She looked at him, turned her head the other direction, and began to walk off. Kyoji wrapped his arms around her waist, "You ain't goin no where without me. Come on, I need to talk to you anyways." Kyoji whispered in her ear. Kina sighed with defeat as Kyoji carried her to his place.

"Is that what you think we should do, Corato*?"
"I'm the head of the tournament this year, what I think goes."
"But, you know, Domon Kasshu defeated that thing over four years ago."
"It was also spotted in our colony last year, did you not know that, Commissioner Eve?"
"Yes, but I don't like putting my nation's fighter in such risk."
"Well, that's a total one-eighty from what you've said before. You hate Motsuya, right?"
"I'm not too fond of her."
"Well, then, why are you protecting her?"
"Uh…well…"
"My point exactly."
"I don't wanna lose this match. I wanna take the title from you, is that clear, Corato?"
"Are you ordering me around?!"
"No. Just merely stating an opinion, that's all."
"Besides, does Motsuya understand what your ambitions really are?"
"Like she would care."
"Dealing with this sorta thing, I would hope so."
"We'll see about that when the time comes."
"I like to hear that from you."
"Prime Minister Corato, have you told Domon about your plans?"
"With you?"
"No. About what we were discussing!"
"Oh, no. Heaven's no. He wouldn't understand. Neither would his brother."
"……So, who's gonna be in the first battle?"
"I'd thought I'd put you're fighter in first against a tough opponent."
"Who?"
"Neo-Germany."
~*~
"Nani?! I'm fighting against you first?!" Kina exclaimed as her fists went down on his table.
"Yeah, they just announced it. After the opening ceremonies, you and I will have a day to prepare for the battle." Kyoji sighed, hanging his head.
"I bet Eve had something to do with this." Kina grumbled as she sat down.
"Ya think?" Kyoji asked her, raising an eyebrow.
"Most likely she did. Only her twisted mind would think of something that crazy."
"So what are we gonna do about it?"
"Let's plan our battle, and try to make it a double knock-out."
"You think that's a good idea?"
"Unless you have any others?"
"Not really. I never really hoped we would fight each other. At least, not this soon."
"I know. Same here."
The two sat in silence for a few moments when a knock on the door disturbed the silence between the two. Kina got up and answered it, only to see Domon and Rain.
"Oh, I see you got the message. I also have a message for you Kina from your Commissioner." Domon smirked.
"Really? What?" Kina asked as she rolled her eyes.
Domon charged for her, and threw a few punches and kicks at her. Kina blocked them, only getting hit once. Domon smirked, "Good job. Eve says that you're to forfeit your match between you and Kyoji."
"Why?" Kina and Kyoji asked, both astonished.
"Because, she said that Kyoji was just too strong of an opponent for you." Rain chimed in.
"Does she know…."
"I dunno. You may hafta bring that up." Domon told Kina.
"Dammit!" Kina cursed. Then she turned to Kyoji, "What do you think?"
"I'll go with you," Kyoji smiled, "It'll be too hard for you to explain two people's feeling's for one another without the other one there. Right?"
Kina sighed, "You always talk in tongue twisters." She remarked as she walked out the door.
"Got that right." Domon chuckled.
"Shuddup!" Kyoji exclaimed as he shoved his brother out of the room, "Kina, come here," then turned back to Domon, "We'll be there in a moment."
"Right." Domon nodded as he shut the door.
Kina walked back in, and sat on Kyoji's couch. Kyoji sat down next to her, wrapped his arms around her, and pulled her close to him. Kina laid her head on Kyoji's chest and sighed, "Damn her. She's just like Father. Never a consistent way of thinking." Kina muttered.
"Don't worry about it. If we tell her now, most likely she'll hafta give in." Kyoji reassured.
"I'm wondering though…"
"'Bout what?"
Kina looked up into Kyoji's eyes. She noticed that they looked softer, more understanding then they did when she was attacked on the plane going to Neo-Antarctica. Kina smiled and lowered her head, "If she understands. If she hears about us, then she may want to forfeit the match between us even more."
"Tell her she has no choice. We'll tell her that if we don't fight, then…well…."
"Well, what?" Kina looked back up at him.
"I was gonna say that I would sneak through the shadows, but I can't very well do that anymore." Kyoji laughed.
Kina gently smacked her hand against his chest, "Don't laugh at a time like this. Let's go talk to her now. Before we start having second thoughts."
"Right." Kyoji agreed and the two pulled away from each other, but not before a small kiss was exchanged between them.
"Are you two coming are not?" Domon's voice sounded impatient through the door.
Kyoji sighed, "Hold Rain if you're that impatient! Kami!" He huffed in a mock angry tone.
"Shuddup!" Domon yelled through the door.
"What? I'm spending time with my girl!" Kyoji laughed as he pulled an unwilling Kina into his chest.
"Spend time with her later!" Domon hurried.
"Yes, we shall go now." Kina muttered, half in Kyoji's shirt, half not, "Before I decide to smack you."
"Well, fine." Kyoji huffed as he swiftly picked her up, "ya'll are such party poopers."
Kina, caught off guard by Kyoji's sudden movements, grabbed his neck, knowing that if he was going to drop her, he was coming down with her. Kyoji opened the door and there stood an impatient Domon standing next to Rain. Domon's foot was tapping on the floor, and a look like does-it-take-you-so-long-just-to-talk on his face.
"Kami, Domon! Don't look like you've got your tighty-whitey's all in a wad!" Kyoji teased him.
Domon blushed, and so did Rain. Both of their faces had turned crimson at Kyoji's statement.
"Come now," Kina sighed as she hopped down from Kyoji's arms, "We hafta go. I need to speak with her."
Everyone nodded and followed her. While they were walking down the street, Domon asked Kina, "Do you even know where she's at?"
"At Prime Minister Corato's mansion." Kina responded.
"Nani?!" The three others stopped, mouths all agape.
"Close your mouths. Yes, I found out, when she sent her last message to me, that it was her via Corato." Kina confirmed.
"You mean they're together?" Rain asked, regaining her composure.
"But isn't that against the rules? Two nations together? Like that?" Domon asked Kina.
"Yes, but take a look at Kina and I. We're basically doing the same thing. That's why we've kinda kept our relationship away from everyone. We know both our nations would be furious if they found out." Kyoji pointed out.
"True." Domon agreed.
"But, now you're gonna expose yourself to Neo-Antarctica's government? Shouldn't you consult with your nation first, Kyoji?" Rain asked him.
"I know Neo-Germany will be furious with me for not telling them first, but it is wrong to hafta forfeit your first match. I'm sure Neo-Germany will let me off this once." Kyoji sighed as he looked up at the stars.
"We need to go if we're gonna catch her before she disappears. You two still coming?" Kina asked Rain and Domon.
"Yeah, I would like to see how this turns out." Domon smirked. Rain nodded and the four of them continued their walk to Neo-Japan's main government building.
~*~
"So, they're on their way?"
"Seems like it."
"And they're gonna try and tell me what I already know?"
"Yes, Eve."
"Feh, how bakana.* It's only a waste of their time."
"Are you sure you wanted her to forfeit? Won't it tarnish your country's reputation?"
"I don't care. She'll do as I say, whether she likes it or not."
"What if she goes on with the fight?"
"I have my ways, Prime Minister."
"You're not gonna…."
"You're right. If she decides to go on with the battle tomorrow, then I'll just use this little contraption and destroy her and her Gundam. Then I can blame the tragedy on Neo-Germany, and little Kyoji Kasshu will be too devastated to even speak. Also, I can take away Ulubay's* little brat from her, and find out some more information on the Gundam."
"You sure have this planned out. What if it doesn't work?"
"Believe me, it will work."
BUZZ
"Oh, gee golly, look's like my company's arrived. Care to join, Prime Minister?"
"What the hell? Why not?"
~*~
"What is taking them so long?!" Kina asked the receptionist, "I'm the fighter for her nation, why can't she get her fat, lazy ass out here quicker?"
The receptionist flicked her wrist at Kina, "Temper, temper. Please, take a seat, and she should be here any moment."
Kina fumed as she turned around and plopped down on the seat next to Kyoji. Kyoji wasn't the least bit happy with the wait. He looked over at his younger brother, who looked as impatient as he probably did.
Rain didn't look too pleased either, "Will they hurry up? I've still got repairs to do on God Gundam before the opening ceremonies begin!" She complained, looking at her watch.
The receptionist answered a beep on her desk, "Yes, ma'am?"
"Send Neo-Germany and Neo-Antarctica in now. No one else."
"Yes, ma'am." The receptionist looked up at the two and nodded.
Kyoji looked over at Domon and Rain while Kina stood up, "You two okay here?" He asked them.
"Yeah. Just don't take too long. If I hear any trouble, I'll come." Domon smirked, giving a thumbs up.
Kyoji smiled back. Kina looked down at him, "Come let's go. We might as well get this over with." Kina sighed.
"Right." Kyoji agreed, rising to his feet.
"Good luck you two!" Rain wished them.
Kina turned back around, "Yeah, we'll need it." She smiled as she locked her hand in with Kyoji's. The two walked down a hall and to a room where the door was closed, both scared as to what was gonna happen on the other side of it.

*Corato: The Neo-Jap Prime Minister-if you haven't figured that out.
* bakana: Ridiculous in Jap.
*Ulubay: I know I've spelled it wrong in the other chappies, but I know this is the right way to spell it.

Ending Comments: Cliffhanger? Hehehe! Since I've been in a kinda rotten mood, I hope this chappie didn't reflect it. If it did, Gomenasi minna! Well, g2g! R&R, and all that stuff!
May your days be as evil as mine are, ^_^*
