It was a cold early autumn evening when a van came to an old mansion up on the lonely hills. The trees had branches that were sharp that gave them an eerie form. The winds moved slowly making an echoes that followed. The setting seemed gloomy. But the passengers in the van were happy.

"Oh yeah! I can't wait to try out our rooms!" Duo said looking at the mansion through the van's window. He was a young man with long brown hair that hung in a braid. He had the largest and happiest violet eyes.

"Well, were almost there so thank god for you" Quatre said smiling. Like Duo, he was a young man. He had long blonde hair and he had a friendly personality and got along with everyone. He was also a multi-billionaire.

The rest were in there usual mood. Trowa, who was very quiet sat in his seat waiting patiently. He had long brown front hair that covered half his face. Wufei, was the most silent of them all and had a fierce temper, not to mention a critical personality. And Heero was no exception to being silent. His long brown hair and Prussian blue eyes gave him an interesting, mysterious character. The kind that a young girl would fall for. And there was already one in the van with him who was.

There was one last person in the van. Her name was Relena. She was a pretty girl with mild dark brown hair and blue eyes. Her hair style was unique, as some of it was braided up and those two braided pieces were also braided. She calm about the situation. But she was excited too. A few times during the trip, she tried to make eye contact with Heero, but he just didn't seem to notice her. Once today, she even tried talking to him but to no avail, his disinterest ended the brief conversation. But she couldn't stop thinking about him as he was always on her mind. They had known each other a few years, and since they met, he began to an interest in him and over time as she seen him and meet him that interest grew. But he just didn't seem interested in anything. Not even just to have a friend. The only reason he came was because Duo had made him go since Duo himself considered him a friend.

The van stopped in front the main entrance of the mansion. "Have a good night Ms.Relena" Pagan her butler and chauffer said to her. And then drove off. The six were now alone together.

"Alright! Let's go take a look around this place!" Duo said with a childish manner. With that, he took his baggage and went inside the mansion first. The rest followed in.

When they got inside, they saw a large room that had a big chandelier on the high ceiling. In front of them were two rows of long stairs. One to the right and left. Inbetween the stairs were two large doors.

"Well our rooms are on the first floor everyone" said Relena to everyone. She was also a rich person and had bought the place for an autumn residence. She had invited Quatre her good friend to stay with her. But then Duo invited himself over and made Heero and Wufei come over. He couldn't help but laugh when Quatre had told her the news. She welcomed them with opened arms.

The rooms that were bedrooms were right where Relena had said they were. They quickly unpacked and as soon as they were done, Duo suggested that they go explore around. Relena thought it would be a good idea since she hadn't seen the mansion herself yet. They met outside the hallway. Relena, who had just come out of her room saw that Heero was not with the party.

"Do you know where Heero is?" she asked no one in particular.

"He went in his room and hasn't come out yet." Quatre answered her. She went to the very end of the hallway which was where the bedrooms were. His was the last bedroom.

"Y'know dontcha think Relena has a crush on that guy?" Duo asked. This time he wasn't being funny or anything. Just simply and sincerely curious. It was also evident that they way she was friendly to him and they she smilied at him gave everyone the feeling that it was a crush.

"It isn't polite to talk out loud like that." Quatre admonished him.

"Well it's true" he said back to him.

"Heero, are you in there?" Relena asked knocking on the door. The door opened and Heero's face came out.

"What do you want?" he asked plainly. He had always talked like this. But she always tried to be nice to him. And she accepted this attitude too. Although the boy was still a mystery to her she was positive that he had a good heart.

"Were going to look around the house. Would you like to join us?" she asked him smiling slightly.

"No" was the answer and he began to close the door but instantly, Relena reached out for his arm without even thinking as though her action was instinct. "Please won't you join us?" she continued asking. Finally realizing that she had grabbed his arm she let go and apologized. "I'm sorry for disturbing you. Good night" she said looking down. To Heero, it was evident that she was upset somewhat. Had he been mean to her he asked himself. He did know that the way he was being to people around him wasn't nice. He wanted to change and make some friends. He really did. But, he didn't know what to do or how to be. Just that same old self he was.

"Alright I'll go with you" he said and walked out of his room.

Relena looked back at him. Did she annoy him into doing so? He shouldn't have to come because she wanted him to. Shame on her she thought with guilt. "No Heero it's alright. I know how much you like to be alone. Stay here if you want to"

"So you don't want me to come?" he inquired.

"No it's not that-"but Heero broke her off.

"Then it's settled" Heero finished. They walked through the hallway together and met up with the gang.

Little did they know that after the group left that all the doors just opened and the windows somehow shattered to pieces. The cold, violent winds blew fiercely in.
