Hey and thanks for the reviews.

 "I guess that means your going to do as Jamie wishes then," Heero said.

 "I guess. I'm going to go for a walk," Quarte said.

 "Mind if I came with you?" Trowa asked.

 "No," Quarte said opening the door. Trowa followed. When they got outside they walked around the building. They walked in silence for the first couple of steps. After the thirtieth step Trowa spoke.

 "How are you taking this?" he asked. Quarte sighed and closed his eyes.

 "I'm not sure. Heero seems to try and help me work it out but I'm not really use to it," Quarte said.

 "Heero cares about people, a lot. He was cold hearted in the beginning because of that training or what ever it was. I guess Relena, Amber, the kids, and us changed that," Trowa said.

 "What do you mean by us?" Quarte asked. Trowa sighed. He wasn't really used to this much talking.

 "We, Duo, Wufei, you and me, were his first real friends," Trowa began, " or so he tells me. We were the first people who tired to get him to open up and care about him. He said that was something he wasn't use to. So back to you. What is all this talk about a fire that only you, Jake, and Heero seem to know about?"

 "Do you remember that fire that burned half of the L4 colony about ten years ago?" Quarte asked. Trowa nodded.

 "Jamie was in that fire. I would have gone and look for her but I was on another colony. When I finally got there they told me she was probably dead and it would take a miracle for her to survive. And miracles rarely happen or so I though. Anyway, I tired to find her and never could. I assumed that she was dead. I never told anyone because I never thought it would matter. I guess I was wrong."

 "What about Victoria and Cathy?" Trowa asked.

 "Cathy won't talk to me. That also was probably Heero asked her that question. Victoria…I have no idea how I feel about her," Quarte said. Trowa didn't ask anymore questions.

 The girl only told her that they were like her, prisoners used for revenge. They hadn't spoke and neither had she. Well, until now that is.

 "What's your name?" the red hair one asked.

 "Janie, what's yours?" she asked.

 "Amber and the blond is Relena and the black headed one is Hannah," the red hair one said.

 "Relena Peacecraft?" Janie asked when it dawned on her.

 "Yep. Only now it's Relena Yuy," Relena said.

 "Or Lowe," Hannah said.

 "True. Never thought of that. What do you think happened to the kids? And why is Marie here?" Relena asked.

 "How are we supposed to know? We need to think of away to get out of here," Amber said.

 "Why?" Janie asked.

 "Because he's either going to kill us or marry us against our will. Maybe worst," Amber said.

 "What's your name?" Reuben asked the brown haired girl.

 "Victoria but my mom calls me Vicky. You can call me what every you want," Victoria said.

 "What is you last name?" Sophie asked.

 "Winner. What are your names?"

 "Reuben Alexander Yuy."

 "Sophie Christina Yuy-Barton."

 "Samantha Gabrielle Yuy-Barton." Victoria looked expectantly at Hannah-Marie.

 "And what is your name?" Victoria asked.

 "Hannah-Marie Elisabeth Yuy."

The girls had gone out to get something to eat while the guys tired to come up with a plan.  There wasn't much they could do.

 "Well, what do we know?" Duo asked.

 "Radcliff is insane, the people who are missing and six different places he could be," Heero said.

 "How about we send one person to one of those places," Quarte said.

 "Could be to dangerous. You have got to remember we've dealing with a real insane man," Heero said.

 "I know. I'm getting to old for this," Quarte tiredly.

 "Tell that to Radcliff," Duo said.

 "Maybe she sure pair up into twos and check out those places. It would be somewhat safer," Trowa said.

 "True. Any more ideas before we do anything else?" Heero asked.

 "What are we going to do when we find him?" Millardo asked.

 "No idea," Heero said.
