Epilogue: Sole Survivor
The others slowly meandered in, their looks ready and prepared. But Heero knew
immediately they were going to get stressed from the battle. Two dark dots began to
appear in the room, growing slowly. Then, they swirled out and formed to 'solid'
entities, both darker than night and more evil than before. "We are Dementia and
Distortion," voices mechanical stated. (If you've seem G-Gundam, this is like Allenby's
voice when she is in beserker mode)
"Dementia, are you in any way related to Demise? She was such a nice mist,"
Relena stated, her face childish and serene.
Dementia looked directly at Relena, a snarl forming. "Of course, you dimwit. I
have a direct relationship with her! She is over half of me!" the mist screeched, her voice
high and metallic.
A pout spread over Relena's face. "You're rude. Just wait until I can defeat you,"
Relena stated.
"Then let's get started, shall we?" Duo replied, a smirk growing on his face.
"Relena and I will take Dementia, Trowa and you can take Distortion."
They broke off into two groups, the said mists following behind.
"Dee-men-she-ah. Carefully said can sound like demon shia. Isn't the Shia an ancient
warrior goddess who took revenge on those who would not submerge to her charms and
graces? If it is so, then are you going to retaliate on us as we refuse to go under your
spell?" Relena asked, her eyes flickering between her regular self and her powers.
"You know your pasts. Too bad you won't have a future," Dementia laughed.
Heero shook his head at the childish banter the two were using. The powered
state obviously had some effect on the personality, while the mists just seemed to have an
altered state of mind foreign to most humans. "Can we just fight? I am really getting
bored of all this useless talk floating between you," Heero stated, frustration clear in his
voice.
"If that is what you want, foolish mortal," Dementia said as she turned to face
him.
Heero just stood where he was. A look of disbelief crossed his face. "Crazed
Banshee Scream!" Dementia cried out as her voice rose in pitch and tone.
A deafening roar filled the room, tortured screams bursting forth. Relena's face
grew angry as she stood there, while Heero had been forced to cover his ears. "Enough of
this!" Relena shouted, her voice impatient.
She moved forward until she was but a foot away from the mist. The screams still
occupied the room. "I said enough!" Relena screamed, her voice loud over all the noise.
Power emanated from her, rising and glowing in a bright aqua color. Aqua light
filled the room, silencing the screams. Dementia looked down at Relena. Relena had
returned to her placid disposition. "Thank you," Relena smiled.
"You little wretch!" Dementia shrieked as she moved towards Relena, one hand
outstretched, looking ready to grasp onto something.
Relena swiftly dodged the attack and launched her own round of attacks. Her fists
flew through the air, often connecting to her target. An explosion of black light threw
Relena off-step, causing her to fall into Heero. "Let's get this party started," Relena
grinned as she stepped away from Heero, her body lithe and ready.
~~
"Distortion has a present for you two."
"What, is it some lame trick or somethin'? Cause we ain't scared of nothing you
can throw at us. So give it up and let it loose," Duo grinned as he stepped forward, a
cocky smile across his face.
Trowa stood behind silently, confidence glowing in his aura. This was the time to
do it. This was were the games began. "Distortion says, 'Let's play ball.'"
Out of nowhere a baseball appeared, then a bat. Distortion took the bat into his
hands and swung at the ball. The ball sped towards Duo. Duo laughed as he produced an
icicle and counter swung the ball. The ball erupted into a flames and hit Distortion.
Distortion flew back a step, unbalanced. Trowa let an amused smile cross his face. He
needn't have a part in the game, so he just watched.
"That wasn't very nice! You must pay for that, mortal!" Distortion cried in
anguish, holes in the dark mist slowly regrouping.
Blue orbs filled the air around distortion. "Your turn, buddy," Duo stated as he
stepped back, still keeping his icicle in hand.
Trowa stepped forward, a large club forming in his hand. The orbs began to come
towards the two, speed increasing. Trowa took a swing at three of the orbs, sending them
flying back at Distortion. The few that strayed Duo's way were also quickly sent flying
back at the sender.
The orbs crashed into Distortion causing cries of agony to escape the creature's
mouth. The room slowly began to pulse with an almost clear, blue color. Trowa and Duo
rocked back with each pulse. When the room returned to normal, Duo could no longer
think clearly.
Duo slowly turned to look at Trowa, a look of jealously crossing his face. "You
stay away from Hilde," Duo warned, his tone dangerous.
Trowa stared at Duo. Hilde was gone and he had never glanced at Hilde when she
had been alive. "Listen to yourself, Duo. You know she died. I wouldn't touch her.
You were my friend and I couldn't betray you like that."
"I saw the way you looked at her! Don't lie to me! And she isn't dead!"
"Duo! Wait!" Trowa cried out as five spears of ice appeared in Duo's hand,
"Listen to me! Trust me and who you are! Don't let him control your mind!" Trowa
shouted.
Duo stopped, a look of confusion on his face. He looked back at Distortion, his
vision clearing. "Ready, Trowa?" Duo asked.
Trowa nodded. "Glad you're back."
They stood side by side, each bringing out their weapons. Duo got a bat of ice and
Trowa held two balls of fire in his hands. "Eat flames, mist."
Trowa threw the balls into the air, Duo swinging in rapid succession, hitting each.
They flew at Distortion, each hitting the mark. The beast screeched in agony as it
dissipated away. Trowa and Duo smiled, they were done and successful.
~~
Dementia looked as if it was covered in a flame of water. It grew in size, almost
doubling. It took up much of the room. Heero knew he couldn't last much longer
without taking on his power. Slowly he let his emotions run together, forming confusion.
He felt the tug it offered and readily let it fill his entire being.
He opened his dark eyes, the depths of them unseen. "We are ready for this
fight.," Heero stated as he let fire glow around him.
Relena stood by Heero's side as they prepared to attack. They leapt forward,
power emanating from them in strong waves. They hit Dementia at the same time; Heero
with fire, Relena with lightning.
The beast staggered, its mass lessening. With reflexes like a cat, two jagged
hands clasped around each of their necks. The mist breathed out, a dark cloud coming
from its mouth and wrapping itself around Relena and Heero. Then they were thrown
back into the wall.
Relena slowly got up, shaking her head. "You're going to pay for that,
Dementia," Relena taunted.
"I think you should watch your back," Dementia smiled.
Relena frowned and turned around. Heero got up, anger in his eyes. "Why won't
you leave my vision?! You are always there, never leaving never stopping to exist in my
mind's eye. It isn't very nice," Heero stated, his voice full of disdain.
"H-Heero?" Relena stuttered as she backed away.
"How do you know my name?! You aren't real!" Heero screamed as he came at
Relena, throwing her against the wall.
"Heero," Relena breathed, her voice scared.
"Get your hands off her!" a voice from behind yelled.
Heero released his grip and he collapsed to the ground. Relena looked up to see
Trowa standing with a large club in his hands. "Thanks," Relena smiled.
"Check and mate." Dementia smiled as a large ball of black energy came hurtling
at them.
Relena, Trowa, and Duo crashed into the concrete walls; while Heero's
unconscious body took the brunt of the explosion. "Heero!" Relena cried as she went to
him.
Heero's aura began to slowly fade, his life seeping from his body. Relena looked
down at him, her blank eyes flickering with torn emotions. She gently brushed a stray
hair from his closed eyes. Tears sprung to her eyes as she slowly leaned down to kiss
him, knowing her destiny would soon be complete. "Good-bye, Heero Yuy," she
whispered as her lips touched his.
Their auras swam together, his vibrant blue with her pale blue. Relena suddenly
fell to the side, her aura staying with Heero. Her eyes fluttered gently shut.
~~
Heero's eyes flew open as he sat up and pulled in a few greedy breaths. He turned
his head left and right, trying to reorient himself. That was when he spotted Relena's still
body. "Relena," he whispered, taking strength from what she had been strong enough to
do.
He stood up, ready to face the mists once more. His two friends laying against the
wall. He spotted Dementia standing in the center of the room, a triumphant grin on her
face. "It's time to end this match," Heero stated bluntly as he let his aura power up.
His aura wasn't the same as before, now flecks of glittering aquamarine flashed
like lightning through his deep aura. All around his yellow, heat radiated in sharp flames.
"For Relena!" he yelled before letting his attack go. A large ball of fire with crackling
lightning flew through the air.
But the mist had been prepared. She had launched her own attack, an attack filled
with her strengths of darkness. An explosion erupted throughout the room, causing
everything to shake and crumble. When the light and dark cleared the room, only one
was left standing.
But the weird thing was no matter how bright and blinding the combined lights
had been, he had watched them die before his eyes. Not only was the villain gone, but
three other people he cared deeply about lay lifeless on the now exposed concrete.
Something pricked at the back of his eyes and he realized they were tears. His emotions
were complete. He knew all and had felt all. Now it was time to leave.
~
He suddenly jolted awake from a terrible dream. Flashes of haunting pictures
crashed over him as he tried to regain his bearings.
"Relena."
There was some connection to the name his lips had mumbled, but he could not
remember it. He gingerly stood, his body tired. He was no longer young. Slowly, he
made his way to the door.
Once outside, everything seemed to be gray and dismal. Heavy clouds hung
overhead, buildings darkened against a dense fog. Silhouettes of people were around
him, but he knew not their faces.

Lost Memories~~
Once, about fifteen years ago, 12 babies were kidnapped by six scientists
conducting a secret experiment. They wanted all of them to be equal in everything, even
if they learned not a thing. But two were quickly rescued. This left five girls and five
boys. It would be ten years later when the girls would be set free. The boys would be left
behind to become Gundam Pilots.
~
Relena Dorlian is crippled from an event she cannot remember. She is brilliant
and the adopted daughter of the Vice Foreign Minister.
At her private school things begin to happen. She encounters nine other people
who start to bring back memories she had forgotten so long ago. But the memories
threaten to drive her insane.
~
A past, a boy, secrets only she can figure out with the help of the other eleven.
What memories will surface and how is her forgotten past tied to the war brewing on
Earth. Will the memories she holds bring peace, or endanger her life in ways she didn't
think possible?
