Me Don't own G Gundam.

Hey! Sorry about Seit being way out of character, but I needed to spice things up.

Maybe I should have made it and OC. But oh well all is still good!

Well here it is, the debut of Chibodee Crokett! Enjoy!

Chapter 5: The Promise

Kioji unlocked the door of his house, and let himself in. " Domon, Domon? Are you hear?" Kioji asked as he took off his coat and

put it on the coat rack that was next to the door. " Yeah, I'm hear." Domon said as he came out of the kitchen with a triple

decker salami and turkey with cheese sandwich even though he just ate a very hefty lunch earlier. " Domon, why are you wearing

that?" said Kioji as he surveyed his casual looking outfit. " What's wrong with this?" he said as he took a sloppy bite of his

sandwich. " It's just not right if someone is coming to dinner, Rain is coming." said Kioji in a mother's tone. " I don't think

that Rain is coming, she had rough afternoon." Domon informed. " You spent the whole afternoon with her?" said Kioji beaming.

" Yeah, well, not the whole afternoon. She met up with her boyfriend. But if she was in her right mind, she'd break up with him."

said Domon looking out of the window. " Aww, your jealous, Domon." " WHAT?! Yeah right, why would I be jealous of that old,

and crazing looking man?!" said Domon with his mouth filled with his sandwich. " Anyway, their relationship was on the brink.

She was miserable with him." Domon continued. " Oh, I hope she's alright."

" Don't worry, she'll bounce back." said Domon reassuringly. " Domon, I visited father today."

" Really?" " Yes, and we started the project again." " Do you mean you started on the Ultimate Gundam, again?"

" Yes. And it's looking better than ever." Kioji turned to a serious tone.

" Now, finally, that battle scorned earth with begin to regenerate with the help of this gundam." " Rain?" Domon said as he saw

her getting out of a cab. " What is she doing here?"

" Domon, what are you murmuring about?" asked Kioji as the door bell rang. " Domon, I have it." Kioji said as he answered the

door. " Rain? What are you doing here?" " Well, I said that I'd come over so we could catch up." Rain said as she smiled.

" Well you really didn't have to come if you weren't up to it. Domon said that you had a rough afternoon." said Kioji worried.

" I did, but I'm over it now." " Are you sure?" " Very." said Rain in a convincing tone. " Well then, come in." Kioji said as he

moved aside to let her in. Rain stepped in the house that she only was in two times, this time being her second. " Hi, Domon."

said Rain. " Rain, are you okay?" " Yeah, why wouldn't I be?" " Rain, you know what I talking about." said Domon in an annoyed

tone. " Well, I'll let you guys talk, while I change into something more suitable." said Kioji heading up the stairs. " If this is

about Seit, it's over." Rain said sadly as she thought about what happened that afternoon. " Rain, I'm sorry." said Domon. Rain

jumped into Domon's arms and said, " Thank you so much." " R-Rain, what for?" said Domon surprised by Rain's actions. Rain

held tighter around his neck, and replied, " For making me see the truth. For making realize that it wasn't going to work. If you

didn't do so, I'd probably be more hurt than I am now." Domon held Rain tighter around her waist. " Rain, I just didn't want to

see you get hurt." " Oh, Domon." Rain cried tears of joy. She was with her best friend. It was better than she imagined their

reunion to be. " Rain, I did miss you so much. Sometimes, when I was with Master, I'd wish I could go back just to see you.

I'm glad your back." Domon said, confessing what he should of said at the park that day. " Aww, isn't that cute? Well how should

I expect two best friends to act when they didn't see each other in over ten years." Hearing Kioji's words, the two jumped back

from each other, and blushed. " Well, how about dinner?" Just then, there was a knock at the door. Domon opened it. " Hey,

Domon!" it was Chibodee, half drunk as usual. " Chibodee, what are you doing here?" " Well, I was just in the town..." Chibodee

trailed off as he let himself in. Domon closed the door. " Hey, who are you?" said Chibodee looking awed, and straight at Rain.

" Chibodee, don't you have some bar to visit?" Domon asked as he pulled Chibodee off of his path that was toward Rain. " No.

I'd much rather be here, *hick* , with the lady." said Chibodee, waving to Rain. " Okay, Chibodee, you need to lay off with that,

she's just not one of those girls that you pick up off the streets, and if you make one move on her I swear-" Domon was cut off

by Chibodee saying aloud, " I just want to get know *hick* her, I'll try to keep in mind that she's your girlfriend." Chibodee

walked over to Rain. " Hi. I'm Chibodee Crok- *Hick* -ett. Chibodee took Rain's hand, and shook it vigorously. " Uh, Chibodee..."

said Kioji. " What, Kioji, can't you see I'm talkin' to the lady." Chibodee said annoyed. " Chibodee, I suggest that you not turn

around." said Kioji in a calm yet warning tone. Chibodee ignored Kioji's warning and said to Rain, " What's your *hick* name?"

there was a glazed over look in Chibodee's eyes. Rain did not like drunk people who she didn't even know to come and hit on her.

Rain pointed over Chibodee's shoulder. To see what Rain was pointing at, he turned around only to get hit by what felt like a brick

wall, but it was one of Domon's punches. Rain slid to the side so Chibodee wouldn't fall on her, so Chibodee fell to the ground.

" Domon, don't you think that was a little... rash?" asked Kioji, looking at the pitiful man on the floor. Domon didn't answer.

Chibodee got up and positioned himself in a sloppy fighting stance, and said, " Yeah, attack a man with his back turned, that's

fair. Why you get so *hick* damn jealous, hmm?" Domon was now realizing that he was overreacting, so he slyly replied,

" I'm just so freakin' tiered of drunks today, hitting on a smart woman who doesn't need it." Rain smiled at Domon's remark.

Chibodee smirked and then said, "Only a

*hick* boyfriend would worry about something like that." Domon was up to his head with all of Chibodee's ranting and raving. So

Domon decided to put him out of his misery for the rest of the night, but Rain asked him to step outside with her. " Rain, what

for? Can't you see I'm doing something here?" When Domon saw the urgency in her azure eyes, he obeyed. They both went into

the kitchen, and out the back door, it was a nice porch with a little red bench on the side. Rain sat on the bench and patted her

hand beside her, gesturing for Domon to sit down. He did so. " Rain, is there something wrong?" Domon asked concerned.

" No, well there is something that I want to tell you, because we didn't get a chance to catch up, considering what happened."

Rain held her head down thinking about Seit.

" What did you need to tell me." said Domon scooting closer. " Well Domon, you know, after you left me that day to leave with

Master Asia, things have gotten hard on me." " Really, how so?" " Well, my mother died and I had to move away from here,

something my father had to do. And since father was so caught up in his work, and Kioji was so far away, and with you gone,

I felt so alone." Rain lifted her eyes to meet Domon's intense brown ones. " Rain, I'm sorry." said Domon with so much sincerity

it scared her. " Domon, for what?" " For everything, for your mom, for your loneliness, everything." Domon embraced Rain, and

held her close. Rain's face flushed a crimson red, and she leaned in. " But Domon, It's not your fault." said Rain feeling sorry for

ever saying any thing. " Yes it is because at least I could have protected you from being lonely, Rain." said Domon loosening the

embrace, so he could look into Rain's blue eyes. " Oh, Domon. Even if you would have stayed, my father still would have moved

away because of his work, so it's not your fault. And don't ever say that again." Rain gripped his forest green shirt, and put her

head on his chest. Domon held her tighter. " I just wish that you didn't have to go through that, noone should." said Domon.

She was going to say that Seit was with her, but he wasn't, and besides, Domon hated Seit, so it would just make things worse.

Rain put her arm around his back and rubbed it. It brought comfort to them both, it let them know that they weren't alone

anymore, they had someone else to lean on. They stayed in that position for about three minutes, but then Domon made a

bold move, he loosened his embrace to look into Rain's eyes, and leaned his face to her's and kissed her on the lips.

*In the house*

" So what do you think their doin' out there, for them to take such a long ass time. I hope he knows that fight between me an'

him is just beginning, and you know why?..." Chibodee didn't get a response from Kioji, the one he was supposed to be talking

to. Instead, Kioji was looking out the back window, in the kitchen. Chibodee didn't bother to look at him, he just continued to

sit on the kitchen table and talk, " ...because I'm startin' to sober up, an' you know what that means, it means some serious

whop-"Chibodee stopped his threatening, to look at Kioji,

" What the hell are you lookin' at, and is it that so damn important that you just had to tune me completely out?" " Would you

shut the hell up?!" said Kioji in a little frustrated whisper. Kioji whispered something else, " they'll hear you!" " What! I can't

hear you, talk louder." said Chibodee. Kioji thought he was being a smart-ass, but Chibodee was serious. So Kioji just waved his

hand inward, signaling Chibodee to look out the window. Chibodee walked to the window quietly, but the silence didn't last for

long, because when he saw Domon and Rain kissing, he freaked out. Not out of anger, but out of excitement, because he had never

seen Domon this intimate with a girl since he got real drunk with him, and even then he was trying to resist.

" OH, MY GOD!" said Chibodee with a loud outburst. Kioji silenced him by putting his hand on Chibodee's mouth. " Be quiet you

dumb ass!" Kioji said whispering. Once that was settled, they resumed looking out of the window.

* Back on the porch*

Rain's eyes turned as big as globes, and so did Domon's . When they were done, " Domon, what was that for?" Rain asked in

complete astonishment. " No particular reason." said Domon, turning a complete shade of red. Rain smiled, and caressed his

cheek with her hand. " Rain, I want you to promise me something." stated Domon. He took Rain's hands in his. Rain looked at

him, telling him to continue. " Rain, promise me that we'll be together. For as long as we can, and you have to promise me that

you'll never get yourself involved with a man like Seit again." Rain smiled and replied, " Yes, Domon, I promise. But promise me

something." " What?" " That you'll drink your water! I can't have a sick best friend!" Domon, and Rain started to laugh.

*Thirty minutes later.*

Domon, Kioji, Chibodee, and Rain were having dinner. " Yeah, so that's how I came to Neo-Japan, from all the way from

neo-America. Hell of a story, eh?" asked Chibodee. " Yeah, sure is. But give it a rest already, you told that same story to me

over and over. This has got to be like, the hundredth time telling it?" asked an irritated Domon. " Ah, shut up! I was talking to

the lady." said Chibodee winking at Rain. " What was your name, again?" " I told you her name was-" " Domon!" Rain whinnied.

" I can take care of myself! Chibodee, my name is Rain Micamora. Pleased to meet you." Rain held her hand out, and they both

shook hands. Kioji looked across from him, he saw Domon fuming with jealousy.

*Twenty minutes later*

" Well Kioji, I had the most wonderful time!" Rain said merrily. " Yeah, me too." replied Kioji.

" Me three." said Chibodee, almost completely sober. " Well, Domon, what are you going to say?" asked Kioji to Domon who was

just standing there. " I'm going to say goodnight, everybody." Domon said heading up the stairs. " Domon, do you want to

meet for lunch again?" asked a hopeful Rain." Sure, why not?" Domon continued to walk up the stairs. " Why do you like that guy?"

asked a puzzled Chibodee. " You're his friend, you figure it out." Rain said slyly as she hugged Kioji goodbye. " Well, should I

call the cab?" asked Kioji. " No, I'm not going straight home just yet." said Rain, hoping Kioji won't ask where she was going.

Kioji didn't want to pry, so he left it at that. Rain said her final goodbyes, and left. " Well see ya, Kioji." said Chibodee.

" See ya, Chibodee. Oh, and leave Rain alone, or Domon will have a fit." " Ah, don't worry, I never get in the way of true love."

Chibodee walked up to the base of the stairs, and yelled to Domon, " See ya, lover boy." at that instant, an array of action figure

dolls came form the top of the stairs. " No! Not my collection!" bawled Kioji. " Domon, your going to get it!"

*Outside*

Rain walked put her hand on her lips, and thought of Domon. Even though the kiss was plain, it was better than any other Seit

had given her. She walked to the supermarket, to pick up a few items, after she was Done with that, she went to the nearest

pay phone to call a cab.

*Ten minutes later*

Rain was now in the cab, and ready to go. When the long ride was done she paid the man driving the cab his due amount, and it

drove off. She came up to her door. She got out her house keys from her purse, she was surprised that her door was already

opened. She stepped in, and saw Seit sitting on the couch. " Seit, what are you doing here?" asked Rain. " Rain, look, we need

to talk. I'm sorry for the way I acted, earlier." " Seit, how did you get in here?" asked Rain while putting her bags down on the

desk that was to the right of the door. " I got in with the key you gave me." " Seit, why didn't you return my calls?"

" Well Rain, I thought my secretary told you why." " So, you were declined every second of the day? And when you finally come

back, you don't even call?" " Rain, when I called, you weren't there." " Why couldn't you just wait for me here, as soon as you

came back?" Rain was losing her cool.

" Rain, when I saw you, you were the one cheating." " I was not cheating! That was an old friend. And if I were, could you really

blame me?!" Rain was now raising her voice. " No, I can't." Seit said giving up. He now knew that he had no chance of getting

Rain back. " I'll just leave. But remember this, Rain, I will always love you. And if that young punk hurts you, I'll kill him."

He said as he made his way to the door. Rain was standing beside it, when he was at the door, he leaned toward Rain, and kissed

her on the cheek. She didn't mind, she was just glad it was his last. As Seit went out the door, Rain looked outside of her

window, and saw Seit walk out of her life. She was glad.

Domon: I guess the chapter wasn't all half bad.

Shadow Tigress: Well of coarse it wasn't bad!

Domon: You know, people who boast about their own work aren't very good people.

Shadow Tigress: Well look who's talkin' Mr. Hot head! Hmph!

Domon: Just tell 'em about the next chapter, geeze!

Shadow Tigress: Well, we are nearing the end of the story. The next chappie is EXTREMELY

FLUFFY toward the end. So you don't want to miss it! untill next time! see ya!
