Chapter Three
The morning came again and everyone was sleeping. Well everyone but a certain girl. She stood outside of her balcony, eyes gazing at the blood, red sunrise. Her eyes glazed over with thought.
Q seems to enjoy living with these friends of his, she thought, I feel bad for having him leave them behind.
She walked back into her room and headed straight for her closet. She changed into a black jogging suit with a blue stripe on the sides. She threw on a pair of black, sneakers and threw her long hair into a thick braid down her back.
She walked out of her room only to see another figure down the hall. She ran up and smacked the familiar blonde in the back of the head and continued running.
"Hey!" a whispered cry sounded off the walls.
He chased after her as she ran out of the front doors of the house. Unaware of the pair of eyes that followed them.
He seems to live more with her, the figure thought, He doesn't seem to try and make everyone happy. But there is something about her I don't trust.
As the morning came, everyone started to wake up. A loud cry was heard as the front doors swung open and Raven ran in, laughter filling her eyes. The guys were confused until Quatre ran in the room, covered in trash, soaked and muddy. Duo broke into fits of laughter and Wufei turned a dark red from holding his back. A single smirk laced Trowa and Heero's lips.
Raven dove behind the kitchen table, going the opposite way Quatre went, while trying to catch her.
"Oh come on Q. It was an accident." the girl tried to say but laughter cut in between her words.
"Right that dog 'accidently' escaped his chain?" he cried out, lunging over the table.
Raven let out a yelp and jumped out of the way, repositioning the table between them.
"Why are you mad at me if it 'accidently' escaped its chain?" she asked, holding back her laughter.
"Well it wouldn't be so suspicious if you hadn't been petting the dog." he replied.
"Look on the bright side." she started.
"WHAT BRIGHT SIDE IS THERE TO BE CHASED DOWN BY A DOG, CRASHING INTO A TRASH CAN, TRIPPING INTO THE LAKE AND FALLING ONTO THE DIRT PILE, WHICH CAUSED THAT KID TO CRY AND THAT MOTHER TO HIT ME UPSIDE THE HEAD WITH HER PURSE!" he yelled.
A smirk laced her lips as Wufei and Duo held back their laughter to hear her accuse.
"Well, you just broke the record for the fastest jog through an entire city." she retorted.
Wufei and Duo broke out into heavy fits of laughter, as Quatre let out a cry of anger and lunged over the table. Raven yelped again and ran while turning only to run right into the Perfect Soldier himself.
They both fell to the ground, being caught off balance. She fell on top of him, causing almost all commotion to stop. Their faces were inches from each other, eyes were locked.
Her eyes seem so sad, he thought, but why would she be sad?
Those eyes haven't changed, she thought, They've become worse.
Heero watched as her eyes darkened and she stood up, brushing her clothes off as if touching Heero would infect her with some disease. He glared and stood up.
Suddenly a yelp came out of her mouth as her head was roughly yank backwards. Her eyes met angry, dark blue eyes. She smiled innocently, before wrinkling her nose.
"You stink." was all she said.
Quatre picked her up and threw her over his shoulder. The others followed quietly as Quatre carried her towards the pool. Heero and Trowa noticed an evil glint had entered her eyes, as a smirk laced her ruby, red lips.
Quatre was about to throw her into the pool, when she reached down and grabbed his ankles. At the last minute, Quatre was pulled into the pool with her. They surfaced to hear Duo's laughter.
"You know you can't outsmart me. No one can." she teased.
The two friends climbed out of the pool only to hear Duo suggest something.
"Why don't we all go to the beach?" he suggested.
Everyone but Heero and Raven nodded. Quatre turned his gaze on Raven.
"Why not? You love the beach." he stated.
Raven looked down before returning his gaze. She was met with pleading eyes.
"Fine." she sighed out dejectedly.
"I'll go if Soldier-Boy goes." Raven finished.
The guys all looked at Heero. He stood there stone cold. Duo's eyes held a glint.
"If you go I wont tell Relena your new e-mail address." he blurted out.
Heero glared at him in realization. He thought about it and nodded.
Damn, she thought crossly, he was my only way out. Oh well.
Everyone left to their rooms and changed.
Raven was the first one dressed. She was wearing short, black shorts with a white, oversized shirt. Through the shirt could be seen a black, one-piece swimsuit. Black flip-flops adorned her feet. Her sunglasses covered her blue eyes.
The guys wore almost the same thing. Swim trunks, a white shirt, and male flip-flops. Duo's trunks were black, Wufei's trunks was a dark red, Trowa's were a dark green, Heero's was a dark blue and Quatre's was a dark orange.
She forced a fake smile on her lips, receiving a disapproving glance from Quatre.
"Let's go." She said, walking to the garage.
They gazed at the assortment of vehicles. Raven's eyes caught sight of her baby and she let out a squeal. She ran over to a '96, black, Mustang convertible with all tan, leather interior. On the front hood of the car were a pair of pure, blood red eyes painted on it. Metallic, blue swirls were painted on the side panels, making them look like blue flames.
"I haven't been able to ride my baby since I showed up here." she squealed.
She hopped into the drivers' seat and ran her hand over the steering wheel. She stepped out and popped open the trunk. She threw her stuff in it and left it open before sliding back into her seat. The guy's slowly made their way into the car after everything was packed in the trunk. The garage door began opening and Raven revved the engine impatiently. The guys looked at each other only to notice Quatre had just finished putting on his seatbelt.
They were slammed back into the seat as Raven sped out of the garage and down the driveway. She turned quickly as they made it off the driveway and shifted into second as the car began speeding down High St. They got to Main St. only for her to turn left tightly, causing everyone to close their eyes. Everyone but Quatre that is. He sat in the middle of the back seat, bobbing his head to the pounding music.
She laughed at the guys's expressions as she wove in and out of traffic, speeding down Main St. Duo looked as if he was praying, Wufei looked as though he was going to be sick, Trowa and Heero were both glaring at the car, as if they thought it would stop scared of them. Quatre on the other hand was relaxed, he was use to this driving.
They made it to the beach, the guys, but Quatre, stumbled out of the car, trying to get their legs to work. Raven jumped out of her seat and squealed.
"She runs beautifully." she said.
She popped open the trunk and grabbed her stuff. The ride had gotten rid off any fear she had of coming her, but now that they were out of the car, she was back in defensiveness. The guys stood next to her, and gazed at the vast, open ocean.
They all searched for a spot and found one. They put their stuff down and everything was peaceful until Duo opened his mouth.
"Wu-man, check out all of the hot babes." he said, glancing over the many bodies.
Wufei growled in irritation.
"Maxwell I told you not to call me that. My name is WUFEI." he snapped.
"Whatever you say...Wu-man." Duo replied teasingly.
He noticed the familiar glint and jumped up, running towards the water, Wufei chasing after. Quatre followed, not wanting Wufei to drown the poor boy.
"I'M GOING TO KILL THE HORMONE DRIVEN BAKA!" Wufei's voice could be heard all over the beach.
"AT LEAST I HAVE EMOTIONS AND HORMONES, UNLIKE YOU AND HEE-CHAN!" Duo yelled.
Heero, who was begin to become agitated, stood up and chased after the braided boy. That left Trowa and Raven alone.
"Hey Trowa. How come you never talk?" she asked, striping down to her swimsuit.
She laid down on her oversized towel. The silent one shrugged.
"Well, I've always wanted to know Q's friends and I've gotten the personalities of the others. I just want to know what you like to do. What's it like being in a circus?" she asked.
"It's ok. My sister is really good at it." was all she got in return.
"Yeah. Your sister is extremely beautiful. I saw a picture of her when everyone was on a picnic a few years back. Trowa, I have a question. You're not angry with me are you?" she asked.
"Depends." Trowa replied.
"Are you angry that Q left to come stay with me?" she asked.
Trowa didn't answer.
"I'm sorry. I told Q to go back to you guys, but he wouldn't. He kept saying that I needed some support after Andre died. Andre and I were really close, so I kinda went on the deep end when he died. Q came and stayed for the funeral and the memorial. Then he stayed forever. I never wanted him to. It's too dangerous where we are. Our Colony is on the brink of war with Colony L11. As much as I appreciate his help, I don't want him to be in another war." she explained.
Trowa looked over, he noticed her eyes were glazed over with tears that seemed to never fall.
"So he stayed on his own freewill?" Trowa summed up.
"Everyone has a choice. There are a selected few that can't enter the Colony, and there are a selected few that can't leave the Colony." she replied.
"You're one of the selected few that can't leave." he guessed.
"Yeah. That's why everyone's so worried." she replied.
He nodded. Silence filled the air between them.
"Trowa. Just so you know," she paused, standing up. "I will always be here if you want to talk about anything. I know you and Q were close, and it hurts to think that someone he thinks of as one of his best friends, isn't that comfortable with me around."
She ran off towards the water, leaving Trowa to his thoughts.
She showed up and dove in. The water stung as she surfaced. She held back a wince as she gazed at the four guys who were fighting.
I don't know how long I can keep this facade up, she thought, hopefully we leave before I run out.
"Hey guys what's up?" she greeted.
Water was splashed in her direction. She growled and lunged at Duo, dunking him under water. That began a water fight.
Trowa watched from a distance, her words running through his head.
