DISCLAIMER: Gundam Wing belonged to Sunrise and co. I'm not making any
profits out of this, so don't sue. Oh, those you think you've never heard
before belong to me. And feedback is very welcome, people!?
TIMELINE: The story takes place after Survival of the Fittest, I'd say almost two years.
SHATTERED MIRRORS V: CONFUSION.
By Arayelle Lynn.
"So you're telling us that Heero saved your life and fought Kylie," Duo repeated in disbelief. Part of him wanted to believe it but the other part warned him that there might be something fishy behind all that. He watched the girl, Amy, carefully. Though she occasionally squirmed uncomfortably under their scrutinize gazes, she seemed calm and well- composed. 'This is definitely a girl who has seen and experience everything life has to offer,' he decided.
Amy nodded. "It's true. He saved me from Kylie, only he said that she's not the real Kylie." Her face masked confusion. "Then, he gave me this address and told me I could find Miss Relena here." This time, it was she who looked at them for answers. "What's going on here?"
"That's what we would like to find out," said Lady Une, watching the girl intently. "Tell me. What did Heero say to you about Kylie, exactly?" There was a hint of something in her voice, so everybody turned their gazes on her.
Amy frowned, recalling. "Well, I believe it was 'That's not Kylie, at least she's not our Kylie'," she repeated.
"And before that? What did he say to her?" Une prompted.
"Uh. it was 'You may have her face but you're not her' or something like that," Amy quoted.
For a moment Lady Une was silent. Then, she looked at everyone in the room with her. They all wore the same expression as hers. "I believe that we've all reached the same conclusion," she said, finally. "It seems that our enemy has someone posing as our Gundam friends. And there are at least two Heeros walking around the street."
Everybody nodded but it was Zechs who spoke. "That's the more reasonable conclusion. We know that the Gundam pilots would never betray what they've fought for. And so, Winteridge has people disguising as the dead Gundam pilots without knowing that one of them is still alive."
"And we know Heero would not let them get away with this," Wu Fei put in.
Trowa nodded. "So, now we know they have someone posing as Heero and Kylie."
"That would mean they have someone posing as Quatre too!" Duo interrupted, a little excited. "I know Quatre would never betray us."
"No!" Dorothy gasped, as fear started to overwhelm her. "That would mean. Quatre's in danger!"
The revelation stunned everyone. Since Heero and Kylie were dead or supposedly in Heero's case, Winteridge had no need to put away the real ones. But Quatre, he would have to take him down in order to replace him with his own actor.
"Let's not panic," said Lady Une, calming the distressed Dorothy. "We will form a rescue plan once we have enough information on our enemy. But first, we have to find out where they're keeping Quatre Winner."
"Provided if they haven't kill him, that is," Duo whispered to himself but those words echoed in everyone's thoughts. Once Winteridge had his actor in place to play as Quatre, he would no longer need the real Winner's heir. So, what reason did he have to spare his life?

Amy yawned and stretched. "I'm beat. I think I better turn in," she said, making her way over to their sleeping bags.
"Good idea," said Dorothy, stifling a yawn. "It's been a tiring day."
"I second that," Hilde supported. She turned to Relena, who was watching the shadows. "Relena? What is it?"
The young minister was startled and turned to regard her. "Huh?" She shook her head. "Nothing. I just thought I heard something."
Hilde frowned. Duo had reminded her before he left that she should be suspicious at any strange sound no matter what. And it could be that the enemy knew where they are. Rising to her feet slowly, she walked over to where Relena was looking, cautiously.
"Where are you going?" Amy asked, feeling the chills.
"I'm going to check on that sound Relena thought she heard. It could be anything."
Dorothy came over to her. "I'll come with you."
Before Hilde could refuse her offer, the lights went out.
