Chapter Twenty-One
The Gundam Pilots winced as they heard the grunts of Heero, training harshly as punishment for what he did. He had assumed Zero was trying to commit another terrorist attack and ended up killing a small child.
Why? He asked himself, It was an accident. I never wanted that to happen.
Heero sent a final blow to the new punching bag and the unprotected skin underneath his nails broke and blood flowed freely from the pain. He heard the door open and growled.
"Leave." was all he said.
Seconds passed and he felt something slam into his cheek, knocking him to the ground. He rubbed his cheek.
I know that punch, he thought as he looked up to see the black haired assassin.
"What did he do to you 01? What happened to the boy who showed emotion?" she asked, kneeling in front of him.
"Like you said, he died and was replaced by a killing machine." was the only reply he gave.
She punched him again, causing a growl to leave his throat.
"Go away Zero." he demanded.
Her foot slammed into his stomach, sending him into a hunched over position.
"My name is RAVEN." she spat, kneeing him in the face.
Heero fell backwards and laid there.
"Tell me, Heero. Why don't you show emotion? Is it too weak for you? Am I too weak for you? Do you find me inferior because I can kill yet still show emotion? TELL ME YUY. What made you change?" she demanded, standing above him.
"War. Bloodshed. The little girl with the dog." Heero replied.
Her foot slammed into his side, sending him rolling on the mat.
"Looks like I have to beat your emotions back in. I want to see you cry like you did all those years ago. I want you to be able to look Quatre and your friends in the eyes without making them flinch from your vacancy." she growled out, her foot ramming into him again.
"Why should I?" he choked out.
"That old man, who you see as a mentor, took away everything I taught you. I swear if you don't show at least a little emotion that isn't negative like hate or anger, I will stay here and beat it out of you some more." she snapped.
He stood up and glared at her, hoping for it to have some effect. It did. She punched him right in the face.
"Don't ever look at me like that!" she ordered.
He glared harder. He could feel it coming. He wasn't ready. She swung and everything was done in a flash. Heero had her pinned against the wall, hands above her head, his lips pressed against hers. After her body relaxed, she began kissing back, her eyes drifting shut in the process.
Heero's lips left hers and traveled down her neck, sucking and kissing lightly. His hand let go of hers and ran underneath her shirt, caressing her skin softly as they traveled up to gently run over the curve of her breast. His other hand resting on the nape of her neck, pulling her close.
"01." her voice moaned out softly, in his ear.
A shiver ran up his spine slightly.
"Heero..." he paused looking up into her eyes, "My name is now Heero."
His finger, which was caressing her breast, flicked causing her head to tilt back. His lips crashed down on her exposed throat.
"Heero...." she moaned out, her hands pushing against him, breaking him off relunctantly.
"I'm sorry. I only want you to do this because you want to, not because I broke you." she whispered.
Her body was enveloped in the shadows and she disappeared within his grasp. He shivered as he felt his shadow caress his body before the presence disappeared.
Did I want that? He asked himself, Or was it just cause I lost control and went with the first thing I thought would shut her up?
He walked back to his room, deep in thought. His mind continued to question whether he meant to do it or not. He found his way to his bed and stripped off his tank top, shoes, socks and pants, laying down in his boxers. His hands resting behind his head as he gazed at the ceiling.
She is beautiful, no one can disagree with that. She is spunky, outspoken, open and blunt with how she feels. She seems to not be able to cry, but then that wouldn't explain why she had tears running down her cheeks at the hospital. Yet, she sounded as though it hurt her more so than it would any normal person.
His mind traveled to the little girl who he had accidently shot just a few hours ago.
She looked so much like a younger Zero. Her hair, eyes, lips and body structure. It all reminds me of Zero when she was younger.
His eyes widened when he realized he had killed a person who looked just like her. He had killed an innocent child, who resembled Zero so perfectly.
I'm....I'm sorry. He apologized to himself, I'm sorry. I never wanted to hurt an innocent.
He remembered how he wanted to shoot the box, but he shot Zero instead. A pang of guilt washed over him as he remembered the bullet going straight through her shoulder. Sitting up, he finally came to a conclusion.
"I...love her." he whispered, looking down at his bloody hands.
He stood up and walked to her room, about to knock before he heard a voice inside the room.
"You have two days Shade. If not, I wont hesitate on my threat." a dark voice said.
A growl was emitted from someone's throat.
"Look! I promised you didn't I? I'm not one to break a promise. I'll give you the info, just back off." Zero's voice stated coldly.
"I expect you to bring it to Earth. I want the info in two days. You know where the base is." the voice said.
A slam was heard as though something was thrown against a wall and shattered.
"Bastard." he heard being murmured.
He left the door and went back to his room.
Who was she making a deal with? He asked himself, as new information changed the events, Can she be trusted?
He drifted off into slumber.
