"You and what army?" asked Diana.
She had done it. Either Diana had lost her mind or she was looking to get the hell beat out of her. Diana had learned a long time back if you didn't listen to Hope, she'd make you listen. Hope didn't give anyone a choice. It was always do as I say or fight.
"Don't get smart with me. I thought you learned your lesson the first time," replied Hope.
Hopes eyes were now a steel blue. Normally they were a cold lifeless blue that gave off no emotion, but now they hardened with anger and frustration. It was almost impossible to try and look at them. They seemed to burn your eyes if you did.
"Look he got himself in the mess; you should let him get himself out. It isn't your fault he challenged me," replied Diana with frustration streaming through her voice.
The two girls were equal height. They both had eyes that bore into you when you looked at them, but those were their only similarities. Diana's eyes were chocolaty brown that showed her mood; Hope's were a harsh and like blue ice when she wasn't mad. Hope's hair was almost black it was so brown except for her chocolaty colored highlights that gave it a warm look; her hair was perfectly styled a few inches below her shoulders. Diana had black hair with natural brown and red highlights; it was an inch past her waste and perfectly braded. Hope's skin was a soft tan tone, and Diana's was a deep tan tone.
"We are supposed to clean up our messes. And since I knew you wouldn't clean up this, one I did it for you. You should be thanking me," replied Hope.
"What mess? I gave him what he deserved," yelled Diana.
"We aren't supposed to hurt anyone but the enemy Diana. You know this" Hope replied calmly.
"As far as I am concerned he is the enemy," she screamed.
"Diana I have heard enough. I am doing what I was ordered to do now leave or you will get hurt," replied Hope in a stern voice.
Diana stared Hope straight in the face and smirked, and then she walked towards Hope until they were only inches apart.
"No" Diana said with a smile on her face.
That was all Hope needed to trigger her punch. She threw one and another and another straight in Diana's stomach until she doubled over. After Diana doubled over hope decided to give her another chance to apologize and redeem herself.
"Give up" asked Hope.
"No" replied Diana starting to get up.
Again, Hope let out a string of pain. First, she brought her knee straight into Diana's head, then clasped her fists, and knocked Diana flat on the floor. Hope then stood and waited for her to get up.
"Do you give up yet or do I have to knock you out," asked Hope.
Diana was now barely standing. She held her head up and looked Hope in the face.
"No" she whispered and then took a swing at Hope.
Hope caught the swing and twisted Diana's wrist until a sickening crack echoed in the room. She had broken Diana's wrist. But before anyone could stop her Hope kicked at Diana's legs, spraining one ankle and bruising both knees.
"Do you give up yet Diana" Hope asked again.
"I can't and I won't" replied Diana.
Hope headed in for the next round of pain.
"Stop! Okay I am sorry. Just don't hit her again" cried Duo
"This isn't your business. Stay out of it" Hope snapped.
"But your going to kill her" Dou said.
It looked like Hope had already put Diana on the edge. Blood was coming out of Diana's mouth; she couldn't stand or even lift up her head. All Diana could do was lay there on the floor covering her head with her arm.
"Stay out of it" Diana said as she gasped for air.
"But........." started Duo.
"If I couldn't stand the pain I wouldn't have asked for it" Diana said cutting him off.
"But I hate to see people getting beaten. It isn't right" said Duo.
"My God! What's going on here" Relena screeched.
Hope simply looked at Relena and walked off.
"Are you okay Diana" she asked.
"Nothing hurts me anymore. Not after living at home" Diana said smiling through her tears.
"I am calling the nurse" said Relena.
"Don't bother I can take care of myself" Diana replied trying to stand up.
It took Dian about five minutes and much wincing be fore she stood up and began to walk out the door.
"At least let me send someone with you" Relena pleaded.
"No, I will......." Diana started and then began to lose balance.
"Duo is going to walk you to your room and that's final. It will be a way for him to make up for the trouble he caused" Relena said firmly.
"Fine. But I really don't need his help" replied Diana leaning on a chair in the corner of the room.
Duo offered to let her use him as a crutch but she refused.
"Look I am trying to be nice here. Why are you being so rude" he asked.
"I was raised n a house were getting the shit beaten out of me was art of my daily schedule. Then I was taken away by some freaks from this Gundam College place were they train pilots. We aren't supposed to worry about pain and we aren't supposed to except help. Then pain part was easy for me form my home life. That's why they picked me" she replied.
Duo went silent. He had never dreamed that someone could have that bad of a past. Beaten everyday he thought. That must have really sucked.
It took a while but they finally reached the staircase. He went down ahead of her in case she started to fall. Sure enough halfway down the stairs her legs gave out and he caught her.
"You okay" he asked.
No answer. He lifted her up. She had passed out from all the pain. So he flipped her around and carried her to the room.
"Your lighter than I thought" he said to her unconscious body.
Wow he thought she is actually quite beautiful when she is a sleep. He wished she wasn't in so much pain. He decided to make her as comfortable as possible in the room. He had just began to arrange her body and treat her wounds when she woke up.
"What happened" she asked in a drowsy voice.
"You passed out on the steps so I carried you here" replied Duo.
"Oh. I am sorry. I hardly ever pass out once I stand up. You can go now. I can take care of myself" she said rubbing her head.
"Are you sure you'll be okay" Duo asked looking sadly at her.
Her body was significantly roughed up and she looked completely helpless.
"I'll be fine" she said smiling at him.
It was the first time anyone had shown general concern for her pain and attempted to help her themselves. At home no one cared she was hurt. At the college if you got hurt that was your problem.
"Okay. I might come back later just to make sure, ok" asked Duo.
"Okay" she said smiling at him.
"See you later" Duo said as he left.
"Thank you" whispered Diana.
She had done it. Either Diana had lost her mind or she was looking to get the hell beat out of her. Diana had learned a long time back if you didn't listen to Hope, she'd make you listen. Hope didn't give anyone a choice. It was always do as I say or fight.
