AN: My computer crashed and what I had written got erased. AND since it had to be fixed, I don't have a spell check program on the computer right now so pardon the spelling errors (some people including myself like to have everything spelled right...boy oh boy, do I wish I had Microsoft word right now...
The meeting was broken up again by arguments stemming from the present situation involving Trio. Kai had not tried to contact any of them since he sent Harry to 'kill' Shiro and none knew if she was even alive now.
"We have to go get her!" Duo shouted above the rest.
"We can't risk the G-Alloids going into the Azure kingdom!" Daemon shouted back.
"We can't just LET Kai get away with this! His reign of terror has to stop before he kills you all!" Wufei growled.
Jerome had called the G-Alloids, their care takers, the pilots and Shiro (who was already there) to the mansion to discuss the immediate problem. The only ideas that got said were that they had to save her (since there were so few of them) and they couldn't risk the others. The only people who had offered no ideas (or shouts in this case) were Alex, Quatre, Heero, and Trey. Quiet Trowa had even tried to offered advice but was soon shouted out.No one had left yet because as agravating as this was, they were hoping for a say in the matter.
Finally, the shouting and concepts of which was being 'discussed' got on Alexs' nerves and he stood up. The room silenced immediately.
"Just where do you think you're going?" Daemon asked as Alex walked toward the door.
"Getting fresh air," he replied curtly.
"And if we make a decision while you're gone?" Alex closed the door, ignoring the question and headed down the hall. He knew that they wouldn't reach an agreement while he was gone as much as he wished they would.
Walking down the gray hallway he peridically saw one of Jerome's servants going about their daily duties. Andrio and Sandrio walked past him on their way up to the meeting room with a tray of food.
"Would you like something to eat Master Alex?" Andrio asked, showing him a plate of cookies.
As hungry as he was, worrying was making him lose his appetite. "Thank you, but no." He smiled and continued on his way out. He reached the outside soon enough but quickly realized that he wanted to be in the back of the house where there was a fountain and a garden of roses and snap dragons among others.
Rounding the back, his heart was temporarily lifted at the beauty. The fountain statue was a finely detailed unicorn; the water was coming out of its mouth and landed in the pool beneath, falling into the pool beneath that one soon enough. Alex smiled as he sat on the edge of the fountain. He looked up at the sky, seeing a few birds flying over his head. Nearby he heard a morning dove's call.
"I wonder who's mourning," he muttered then realized it was the whole house. They all mourned for Trio, fearing her dead or worse but Alex didn't doubt her. He knew she would make it. He blinked and shook his head, clearing his mind of the thought.
Alex, the Sandrock G-Alloid, laid face down on the slightly warm marble and closed his eyes, soon falling asleep despite his troubled mind.
He dreamed of a sky full of clouds and the five Gundam Children flying care-free through them. Shinna and Trey flirted, playing hide-and-seek while Daemon and Alex talked about where they were going. Trio was in the middle of the pairs and was seen looking at the ground. She began falling downward to the two behind her's dismay. A warning bell sounded in Alex's head but he thought it was his nightmare. The warning got louder and louder till it hit such a high pitch Alex started awake.
"Wha..." he mumbled. With concern he realized the warning sound hadn't stopped, but gotten more urgent.
'What's going on?'Alex asked Sandrock. For a moment the Gundam pondered, then cried out.
'Get up, Alex! She's falling!'
'...Falling?' He wondered if Sandrock was seeing his dream.
'Alex, Trio's falling in the sky! Deathscythe reported she's in horrible condition and she can't stay afloat anymore. She's right above us!'
Alex looked up and got reprimanded, 'Alex! Get up there now!' Frowning the G-Alloid lifted off and flew up into the clouds. He looked around and flew up, down and side to side with no sign of the missing girl.
'Sandrock...' Alex muttered and was about to land again when a dark 'thing' flew straight down past him. Horrified he realized it was her.
"TRIO!" He screamed as he went into a nose dive.
'Alex! You can't do a nose dive, you won't be able to stop in time.' Sandrock calmly explained.
'That's your jurisdiction, Pal!' Alex replied offhandedly. 'I'm busy.'
Alex pulled his wings in closer, barely passing the barely conscious girl.
"A...lex..." Trio muttered with a grimace.
"I got you, Trio," he replied while he hugged her. He forced his wings to flap harder than he had ever asked them to as he slowly uprighted the two. While he noticed, with some happiness, they were upright, to his dismay they were still falling faster than he could stop them.
"I made it, I found my friends, I made it back..." Trio was muttering while a little blood soaked on Alex's hands from her back. Alex grimaced as they fell.
'HELP ME!' He shouted in his head. Trio squeaked and her wings started pressing outwards, trying to help and to release Alex's grip on her wounds. Holding on tight he said, 'You GUYS! I need a little HELP here!' while aloud he said "Trio, hold still. I'm sorry if I'm hurting you but PLEASE hold still!"
Daemon sat up. He had been leaning back in his chair when the urgent call came in. "What the?"
"Outside!" Kamui exclaimed as he shot towards the window. "Alex is up there!"
Trey jumped out of his chair and ran to the window. With a little trouble he unlocked the window and flung them open.
"Outta my way!" Shinna yelled, running past the startled boys. Her wings extended and she shot upwards, tracking Sandrock's signal as she went. Trey, Daemon and Kamui were not far behind her.
Daemon was about to ask Alex what was wrong when they saw a blob falling towards them at a fast speed.
'It's Trio!' Alex answered the unasked question. 'But I can't stop our descent! She's too weak and it seems her injuries, especially on her wings, are great.'
The other four G-Alloids were at his side immediately and with the combined power of the G-Alloids they slowed down to a near stop before setting their feet on the ground. Alex supported Trio until Jerome came shooting past, grabbing her and hugging her until she cried out.
"Thank you everyone," Trio pronounced clearly with a smile.
"You made it, baby girl," Jerome smiled.
From behind him came a comment, "She's the child of a Gundam pilot all right, tough as any Gundam I've seen."
"She's got your stamina all right, Maxwell," Wufei added. "Battered but not beaten."
Looking past Jerome, Trio saw the Gundam pilots and laughed. Pulling away from Jerome she walked with unsteady steps to the Deathscythe pilot and hugged him. Spotting Shiro at the back she gave him a smile and held up the necklace, intact and still on her neck.
"I'm back, I'll never leave again." Turning around she smiled at the friends who had supported her on the way down. "I'm sorry I was so stupid and I'll make it up to you all I promise."
"Just getting better would do for me," Kamui declared and following his declaration came the declarations of others until Heero's glare silenced them.
"Heero's right," Quatre said, "she needs to go inside." And with that Trio, with Duo and Shiro's support, was lead inside to begin her recovery.
