After two hours with the score thirty to zip the guys were getting
tired. However, Duo not wanting to look like wimp insisted they keep
playing. The sun was at sunset and it outlined the trees from the nearby
forest beautifully. The moon was completely full and stars were starting to
show their bright faces. A slight breeze blew across the fields surrounding
the courts and blowing the girls long hair around. The black tar of the
basketball court had started to cool down. The temperature outside had
dropped as well. All in all it was wonderful out thought Katrina.
"You give up yet?" asked Diana.
"No", said Duo.
"I think we should stop your friends look tired" Teresa pointed out.
"Aren't you?" asked Duo.
"No. We were trained to go weeks with only one night's sleep." replied Hope.
"I think you are exaggerating just a bit. No one can go that long without any sleep. It isn't humanly possible." said Duo in a smart-alecky voice.
Diana gave Duo a cold hard stare. Who the hell does this guy think he is, she thought. How dare he speak to them like that and how dare he call them liars thought Mardife. The girls gave Duo the look of death. Katrina turned round and walked off. Teresa just stared at him with a look of complete and total disgrace. Mardife took a hard look at Duo shook her head and followed Katrina. Hope sat down on a bench on the left side the basketball net.
"How dare you" Diana screamed.
"How dare I what" said Duo in the same tone as before.
"I think you should apologize to her Duo" said Heero.
"Why? What's she going to do paint my nails and perm my hair" asked Duo
At this point Diana was absolutely fuming. Her fists were clenched and her knuckles had turned white. Diana's face was an unnaturally bright red. It looked as if she was going to breathe fire and smoke would come out her ears any second. It wasn't until a few seconds later Duo noticed the look in Diana's eyes and began to back off stuttering.
"How dare you" Diana screamed as she lunged full force at Duo connecting her fist with his stomach.
"I warned you" said Heero.
"I could use some help" said Duo trying unsuccessfully to dodge Diana's other punches.
"Personally I think you deserve this" said Trowa.
"Diana that's enough" said Hope.
"But" began Diana.
"No buts. He is in enough pain already so you can stop." said Hope.
Hope walked over to Diana. Hope had a soft face that never should emotion. Her voice was the same way it was sweet but she used a cross tone every time she spoke. Everyone had gotten used to her ways and were no longer bothered by her stiffness and refusal to show emotion. She reached her hand down to Duo and helped him up. After she helped Duo up she directed Diana back to the house without saying another word.
The next morning Duo had bruises everywhere and had a bloody nose that wouldn't stop. He had gone through a whole box by the time he fell asleep. He guessed that maybe he should have kept his big mouth shut as advised by Heero. Man he thought that was one tough chick, but boy was she pretty.
Diana was last to wake up. The room was in a Victorian style and the beds were very feminine. She hated the rooms. There is way to much frill and pink and crap she thought. Btu the windows were nice. Diana liked the huge windows. They were huge and all clear glass, evenly spaced on the wall in a motecello style. They had long white flowing curtains hanging over them. Someone had left the door between her room and an outside balcony open and the wind from outside blew the curtains inside in a flowing pattern that reminded her of the manmade waterfalls back at the colony. She walked out onto the balcony and breathed in the fresh morning air. Below her sat the girls Gundams. Someone took off there invisfields that allowed them to travel quite far without notice.
Diana's Death Star stood tall. It's black, sharp edge cape blew in the wind so that she could see the starry underside. It held its scythe straight and high and its eyes seemed to light up at her presence. Someone washed her she thought. The Gundam seemed to have been cleaned and polished for its gundanium armor shined in the sun. She smiled as she watched it sit out there. Diana was proud of her Gundam and proud to have the honor of being its pilot. She couldn't imagine life without.
"What would I do without you Death Star?" she said to herself.
Hope had been the first to awaken. She was always first to rise in the mornings and last to go to sleep at night. Once she got up she put on the white robes with pink and blue silk laced patterns on it. After putting on the robe she walked out and stood on the balcony watching the sun rise and shine against Angel's wings, then face. She looks simply grand Hope thought. Angel's huge wings were fully extended and shined like a true angel's wings in the sunlight. Her sword was in its sheath, which glimmered in the sun, seemed to have a fresh coat of paint on it. She stared at it long and hard until she heard someone coming to there balcony t which point she slipped inside and began to prepare medicine.
Teresa was the second person to wake up. She liked to watch the sunset but stayed in her room because she knew Hope liked to watch it outside alone. Her Gundam was kneeling due to its tremendous wait it couldn't stand without a pilot. Gun Fire had the most weapons and ammunition of all the Gundams. It was painted mostly red and from the sheen it seemed to have been given a fresh coat. As the sun showed behind its head it reminded her of her life before the college. She quickly dashed away the memories they hurt to much. After an hour or so she got dressed in some sweat pants and a halter top and went running outside. She ran around the house admiring its beauty. The walls had been painted white and the windows were all motecello style. The house had several balconies and ten bay windows. She loved the mansion it was big and beautiful with lots of room.
Mardife and Katrina awoke at the same time. Their rooms were on opposite ends of the house but both looked over the Gundams and had a bay window. Mardife looked out at her Gundam for a while. She watched the sun add a goldish hint to the white paint on it. The green shined bright and look fresh and polished: it almost matched the fields behind it. After about ten minutes she headed outside in a pair of jeans and a tank top. Once outside she walked through the woods till she came to a clearing. The clearing wasn't big but it was good enough; it sat by a stream that ran silently. Perfect meditation spot she thought.
Katrina got up and threw on her robe and tied it. After she put on the robe and slippers se sat in the bay window and watched the sun finish coming up. As it hit Sandstorm it bounced off and created a rainbow of light. The eyes of her Gundam lit up with the light of the sun. Katrina loved her Gundam. Sandstorm had been created from what was left of her birth colony. Her family had put her in an escape pod and sent her away before they blew it up. All her family died in the blast.
Heero was the first to awake followed slowly by the others. They had all been awake only an hour or so when Hope knocked on the door.
"What do you want" asked Heero in an irritated voice.
"To put an ointment on his wounds so tat they heal faster and better" replied Hope in her emotionless tone.
"How is some stupid ointment going to make it better" asked Duo.
"I don't know exactly. It is massed produced in our colony due to the strength of the people and it has always worked before" said Hope.
"Ok, fine if it will really help." said Duo.
"You have to remove your shirt ad put on shorts or else I can't cover all the bruises" said Hope.
Hope turned around and waited patiently. Duo couldn't believe this. How did she no where the bruises were? But he did as he was told to. The process took about a half hour. Hope was almost finished when Diana came down the halls screaming.
"Hope, why the hell are you helping that creep?! He deserves every bruise I gave him" Diana screamed as she walked in the room.
"Chill out Diana. It is no big deal" said Hope.
As before Diana's temper flared and her face got red, and her knuckles turned white.
"Your using our ointment on this jerk who got what he deserved!" Diana yelled.
"Diana either calm down or I will make you" said Hope with fire in her eyes.
"You give up yet?" asked Diana.
"No", said Duo.
"I think we should stop your friends look tired" Teresa pointed out.
"Aren't you?" asked Duo.
"No. We were trained to go weeks with only one night's sleep." replied Hope.
