Safety 4

Aw! You guys are nice O_O That's a lot of comments!!! ^_^ Thank you all very much! Hopefully I'm getting better at editing these. They are pre- written, but they are very old and my writing has gotten better sense then, so it takes me a while to try and edit it, sense people pointed out that I should have edited the first one. ^_^ Which is very cool by the way, thank you!

Queen Peacecraft ran as fast as she could with her baby in her arms. She was out of breath after running more then she ever had in her life. The path was dirt and a few trees and bushes were scattered around the area. Behind them was a kingdom, which was hardly recognizable now. It was glowing with fire and the smoke made it look like night.

She watched as the woman ran and ran, the child crying in her arms. She fell in the mud, but got up and kept running. "What is she running from?" Relena wondered. Almost as if in answer, she heard a horse coming up behind them. The woman heard them too and ran even faster, pulling her red skirt up, but one piece fell and she tripped. She searched around frantically, found a small bush next to the road and put the baby in it. She looked down at the small child then stood up and walked to the middle of the road. She was so strong as the horse rode up right in front of her and the rider got off.

"Well, well," laughed the rider as he took off his helmet. He was a tall man with purple hair. "You really thought you'd get away on foot?" His words were solid and heavy. She refused to say anything as he walked up to her, taking out his sword. "Where are the children?" He asked, looking at her empty arms. She pushed back tears. "They are already dead," she said tearfully. "They were both killed in the garden when the bomb fell." He smiled a little as he lifted his sword and..

Relena woke up breathing in gasps and sweating hard. She felt like she had run miles with the woman. The queen. She felt a hand on her shoulder and looked over to see Heero and remembered that they were on the plane. "Are you alright?" He asked. She looked at him and felt a bit more relaxed.

"It was just nightmare." She said pulling herself together. She considered whether or not to tell him what it was about. He'd think I was foolish if I told him, she thought and looked away from him. He let go of her shoulder and sat back into his seat. He studied her for a second.

"Is it the same dream as last night?" he asked, looking focused. She thought about it. It was the same place and time, and with her as a baby.

"Sort of." she said, still looking at the ground. He pushed her bangs out of her eyes and she looked up at him. "You can tell me, if it's really bothering you." she about to start when she remembered what he had said earlier and turned away again. "I'll be alright."

"VERT!" Millardo gasped as he woke up. He sat up so quickly that Noin was thrown back a little. He was breathing hard and couldn't talk. It was that man.the one who.

"Are you alright?" Noin asked worriedly. Millardo was still gasping for breath and shook his head. She got up and brought him a glass of water. "Here," she said handing him the glass carefully. His hands were shaking.

"Why didn't I think of it earlier?" He asked, more to himself then her, "It was so obvious! It should have been my first though. I knew that he'd come sooner or later and it makes so much sense that now would be the perfect time!" he stood up and paced around the room. "Anyone could have seen it! I only thought about a little while before this!"

Noin put the water on the table and hugged him. He sighed and hugged back. "Millardo." Noin said sweetly as she could, "Calm down."

"I know who is after Relena."

Relena and Heero made it from the plane, the taxi, to the outside of his apartment without any trouble. When they made it to his apartment complex, Duo was waiting outside. He smiled leaning against his beaten up car.

"How did you make it here before us?" Heero asked suspiciously. Duo shrugged.

"Not sure, but." He paused and looked around, "I'm really hungry! Do you have any food?" Heero sighed and Relena laughed a little. They all walked up the four stories to his room. When they got there Relena opened the refrigerator and was reminded there was no food.

"Sorry, Duo." she said, sitting between him and Heero on the small couch, "Were out of everything." Duo shook his head.

"Why am I surprised?" He asked folding his arms, "Superman over here never eats." He sighed. "Well, we'll just have to go some-" Heero put his hand in front of Duo's face and stared into the distance. Relena and Duo sat without breathing.

"There's a bomb."

Before Duo or Relena could react Heero grabbed Relena's arm and pulled her out of the room. They had gotten down one flight of stairs when Relena tripped on her bad leg. She tried to stand back up, but fell down again. Heero got down and held her tight as the blast shook the building.

Relena sat there with her eyes shut tight. She could barely breath. Heero's grip loosened and he let go completely.

"Are you all right?" He asked looking her straight in the eyes. She nodded. He was burnt and one arm was bleeding badly. She looked up at what was left of his room. It was completely gone. The rest of the building was all right, but the wall to the hallway was so blown out they could see that the outer wall was gone too, and they could see outside clearly. Relena's heart quivered. If they had still been in there, they never could have lived through it.

"Damn!" said Duo coming up the stairs; "I thought you were behind me and then the explosion. Are you both all right?" He helped Relena up and Heero carried her outside. People and police began to crowd around the building, so they found back alley.

"You twisted your ankle, but other than that and a few minor cuts, you should be fine." Heero said, examining her ankle. He saw she was looking at his arm and smiled a little. "Don't worry. It will be fine."

"Yeah, this is, like what, the hundredth time you've mauled your arm?" Duo said asked sarcastically, "I'm going to find some bandages just the same, I'll be right back." He left the ally.

"Thank you, Heero," Relena said as she passed out. He stood up and could see that her left arm had a huge cut down the back of her forearm. He shook her a little, but she didn't wake up.

"Is she going to be all right?" a voice asked. Heero turned and looked at the man walking down the ally. He was hidden in the shadows enough that they couldn't see his face till he was in arm's length to Heero. He lifted his head and they saw his purple hair and green eyes.
