Many Faces
Dear Readers,
Okay, I accidentally deleted this chapter the first time I typed it up, but, now I can answer some questions you may have burning inside you. 1. I am sorry I was not able to update this past week do to FF.Net not wanting to load properly at all. 2. However, that has allowed me to answer a few questions. Such as "Is Peter like a younger version of Heero?", well, actually, I don't want to fill your heads with a bunch of goop, so I'll say this as basically as I can. Remember Lady Une, and the way that she had a split personality? Lady Une, and Commander Une, only she knew about it? Well, multiple personality is kinda like that. Only there's minor differences.
1. Each personality is a trait of the true personality that was hidden away for many reasons.
2. Each personality can have it's own made up background and story.
3. As explained before in the story so far the true personality does not know about the other personalities except from what is told to them by other people. Even though the other personalities may know about the true personality, and each other.
4. Many times the switches occur do to certain things, such as a clock chiming reminding the person of a forgotten memory that hurts them and such.
Here's a good one, making the chapters longer.... Well, I've been trying really hard to work on that myself, I can write ten page short stories for school, but, when it comes to chaptered stories..... I kinda get bored after a while, I'm still trying though, maybe drinking tea will help, it seemed to be while I was typing up my story for the fair this year.... (Like a county fair, I should post that.)
But, enough of my ramblings, you want the story don't you?

Chapter 2
Trowa woke the next day, hoping beyond all hopes that yesterday was all just one huge dream. Multiple personalities? And Heero has it? This was too hard to believe, Heero was even more so stone faced than Trowa made to be, the Perfect Soldier. But, he could hear the child- like speech of one of Heero's personalities, Peter talking to Catherine. He'd read a couple of the books Catherine had on this disorder of Heero's, but none of it made sense, except for the true story of Sibil, a young woman who was recorded to have the most personalities ever recorded, including a male one. Of course, all that Trowa had seen was Peter from Heero's possible few. "Morning, Peter.", Trowa greeted, only to be pushed back outside by Catherine. "Trowa, I want to ask you something. Sometimes it's been reported to help if people who care about the person with the multiple personalities were there to help them through this.", she whispered.
"Meaning, you want me to go get the other pilots, right?", Trowa asked.
"Yes, do you know where they might be?", she asked.
"I know where Quatre is, maybe he'll know about Duo too, of course, I'm almost positive Wufie'll be in the mountains somewhere training.", Trowa sighed, "I don't know, OZ is still looking out for any signs of our group gathering back up.",
"Just, tell them all to leave their gundams behind with people they can trust, disguise themselves, and get over here.", Catherine told him, "Look, Trowa, I, we cannot just set here and not try to draw out the truth from Heero or the rest of them.",
"Why not? I don't see how it is hurting Heero any.", Trowa argued, "It'd be more dangerous to him to bring all the guys together here.",
"I- I seen something on his back last night, I think it's part of the reasons Heero gained the multiple personality thing.", Catherine explained, "I was changing bandages, and there on his back was a scarred area, it looked almost like he'd been branded like a bull would've been.",
Trowa looked at her with the fear flashing on and off in his eyes though he still wore his straight, never flinching face. "Do you think someone actually did....", Trowa trailed off, looking pale.
"Yes, I'm sure.", Catherine explained, "I seem to have gotten Peter to at least trust me enough to not back away each time I touch him. However, because of that, I can't leave him alone.",
"Why?", Trowa asked.
"Because, right now he's Peter, a little kid, and little kids can get themselves into big trouble.", Catherine told him.
"Yeah, I see your point. Hey, can I use your car instead, since it doesn't have a search out for it currently?", Trowa asked.
"Fine, do what you want, just don't destroy it.", Catherine tossed him her keys, and turned to go.
Trowa hopped in the car, and drove like a mad man. Duo Maxwell was not that hard to find. He was living in the next town over, and advertising the opening of his new metal shop. Which, got Trowa to thinking what exactly everyone else had been doing since the last time they'd seen each other. Well, he was about to find out whether it was safe, or not.
Trowa entered the shop casually, and rang the bell at the front counter. He looked up at the wielded mobile that hung from the ceiling engrossed in Duo's choice of expression. "Hey, how can I- Trowa?!", Duo hopped right over the counter, and gave him a tight hug, "What's wrong? I can tell, something's not right, or else you wouldn't be here.",
"I well, to tell you the truth about that....", Trowa started, "Heero's, well, Heero's got what Catherine says is a multiple personality syndrome-",
"Whoa, wait, wait, wait... Heero has an M.A. problem?", Duo asked.
"Yes, if that's what you call it.", Trowa shrugged surely at a loss.
"I've heard of those.", Duo muttered, "Met a man once who had it, personality could change every five seconds if you weren't careful of not saying the right things.",
Yeah, well, Catherine says it'll be better off if Heero has a couple people he can trust by his side.", Trowa explained.
"She's right, you're just lucky I know were Kat is. We can go get him, and wait to get Wufie until we can later on.", Duo told him, "Don't worry, I have a small personal aircraft I bought and fixed up, don't even need a flying license for it, I'll be back soon enough.",
With that he left, but soon returned with Quatre, whom he'd explained everything to during the flight back. Of course, Quatre had heard about this mental disablement as well. Seemed everyone had except Trowa himself....
