Chapter Two
The morning came and everyone but Quatre was down in the dining room, waiting for the blonde to enter. They were all curious as to what happened to him. Their thoughts were cut off by laughter, which filled the room. They heard the front door slam shut.
Quatre walked in the room wearing dark, blue jogging suit, a red stripe ran up the sides of the outfit. His eyes were filled with laughter and his hair was matted down by heavy beads of sweat. In his hand he held a cell phone, which was placed at his right ear.
"Are you serious? Jacarei actually did that to him?" he asked the person on the other line, before burst out in laughter.
"I'm...going..to go. T...talk to y...you later." Quatre stuttered out between fits of laughter.
He pressed a button and looked up at the guys, a smile formed on his lips.
"You guys are all up early? Even Duo?" Quatre teased.
Duo blew him a raspberry as Wufei smirked to himself.
"So what have you guys been up to?" he asked the group.
The guys looked at each other cautiously. Quatre noticed the awkward silence and sighed.
"Don't tell me they haven't given you a break from fighting? Sometimes I'm glad I don't work there anymore." he whispered.
"What do you mean by that?" Duo huffed out.
Quatre sighed.
"The day I received the phone call, was the day I resigned from Preventers. I couldn't handle it. I felt as though you all were far more superior than me, so I left. I enjoy the work I do know. I get vacation time. I'm not always in the midst of battle. I'm able to loosen up a lot. Of course this didn't go over well with Dr. J. When I told him where I was going to work, he called me a traitor, so I left for that too. Although I missed you guys, I wouldn't have changed anything I did." his speech came to a finish.
"Where do you work?" Heero asked.
"On Colony L7. I work for Galaxy Corp. My boss, Raven, had stationed me as head advisor. So I'm actually making the money that I have, instead of inheriting it." Quatre said with pride.
"So what else do you do on Colony L7?" Duo asked.
"I go out every Friday night with my co-workers, to a place called Ruby's Spot. It a lot of fun. Saturdays we sometimes go to the park to do something. Sundays I go out with Lin. Mondays are my personal-leave day. Tuesday through Friday I work. Sometimes I'll go in Monday for the heck of it." Quatre answered.
"Lin?" Trowa, Duo and Wufei questioned.
Quatre blushed softly.
"Oh. She's my girlfriend. She's extremely kind, and loving. Yet, you push her buttons she knows how to get even." Quatre said, shuddering at the thought.
"So who are you here to find?" Wufei asked.
".........Raven." was the only word that left him mouth.
"Why did you leave?" Heero inquired curiously.
Quatre's eyes dimmed to a dark, blue. Sorrow filled every inch of his body as it slowly slouched at the thought.
"Raven and I grew up together when we were in our early teens. Raven had an older brother who was extremely protective of us. The day I received that phone call was the day he died. No one knows how. No one but Raven, but no words ever leave that mouth. I left immediately. At that moment, I didn't care what you guy's thought." he said.
Duo was about to ask something when an unfamiliar voice rang throughout the mansion, causing four of the guys to pull out their guns.
"HUNNY! I'M HOME!" the voice cried out.
Footsteps entered the room and in front of them stood a teenage girl. Her long, jet black hair was pulled into two, braided buns on either side of her head. Silver could be seen throughout the buns. Dark, sapphire, blue eyes gazed at the four armed boys with amusement. She wore a pair of baggy, black-grey-white, army fatigue style pants that had multiple pockets with a black, tight, wife-beater type tank top. Black, fingerless gloves and black combat boots finished the outfit, and matched with the black, bandana that was wrapped around her hairline. On top of the bandana was a pair of black, sunglasses.
Heero, on closer observation, noticed a scar around the corner of her left eye. She wore a silver, chain bracelet on her right wrist. Hanging from her neck was a set of dog tags. Around her left, upper arm looked to be a tattoo of words, which wrapped around her arm, going down, but never connected.
"Ok? Are you going to stand there and gawk, or are you guys actually going to shoot me?" her icy, tinted voice teased.
Heero growled and focused on her.
"Who are you and who do you work for?" he demanded.
"Oh. My name is Raven Tenshi. I work for no one but myself. I am owner of Galaxy Corp. which is stationed on Colony L7, sir." she answered, her posture straight, and her giving a mocking salute.
"You're Quatre's boss?" Duo blurted out.
A single, black, thin eyebrow rose gracefully in a questioning manner. She turned her eyes on the blonde boy.
"Yeah. You can say that. So Q, tell me how much you've missed me." she teased.
The blond had been quiet and his eyes gazed intensely at her before something snapped.
"WHERE IN GOD'S NAME HAVE YOU BEEN? I'VE LOOKED EVERYWHERE FOR YOU AND I COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING. WHAT THE HELL GOT IN YOUR HEAD TO GO FOR A JOB LIKE THAT!" he yelled.
The raven haired beauty grinned.
"I love you too. Actually the thing that got in my head was probably the fact that it was a purple chip I was going to get, plus some important info that will help us win." she replied, her grin dropping, as her voice became less soft, and more stone cold.
Quatre sighed.
"Look. I'm sorry. I know you can take care of yourself, but I still have the right to worry. A WHOLE FUCKING MONTH!" he cried out.
The four other boys gazed at him in shock. The girl however turned her back to him, and smiled at them.
"Hello. You guys must be the pilots Q told us so much about. It's a pleasure meeting you." she said, extending her hand out for a handshake.
A gun was positioned to her forehead and the safety went off. Heero glared coldly at her, only for her to glare back, ten fold. He was slightly shocked but that emotion was quickly shot and burned to pieces.
"How do you know?" he demanded.
Her eyes flashed a quick gold, that caused Heero to think it was just the light playing with his non-existent imagination, before turning into a dark, blue-violet. In a quick flash the gun was kicked from his hand and repositioned to his forehead, the safety still off.
"Don't push your luck Soldier-Boy. You are not worth my time anymore." she stated, her voice in a complete monotone.
"Rae, check yourself." Quatre instructed.
Her eyes dimmed to the dark, sapphire color they were originally before she dropped the gun. It collapsed to the tile floor with a loud clank. She shivered to herself.
"Sorry Q. I didn't mean to threaten your friends. Especially one that doesn't listen." she paused, turning to look at Heero.
"I had told you, Q told us all about his friends. I just happen to do a full background check. So Q, you can tell Lia, she's not the only hacker in the company." she answered, her voice dropped of its monotone.
Quatre shook his head at the sudden change of personality. Duo broke the silence with a large grin.
"THAT WAS SO FUCKING AWESOME!" he yelled.
He was instantly hit in the back of the head, causing Raven to burst out into laughter at the image.
CR: hehehe. Hope you enjoyed. This is CrazyRae, signing off for tonight. R&R
