"If we didn't need their help I wouldn't be telling them now. I feel like it's to soon Jared," stated Athanasia as they pulled in to the driveway.

"It'll be alright Thana. From what you've told me it will be alright," replied Jared.

"I know. Okay, here goes," she said as she just opened the door to the mansion.

"Shouldn't there have been at least some security?"

"Oh yeah there was, but I'm in the system so we weren't stopped."

"Oh…"

All of a sudden a tall man with a long chestnut braid ran right into Jared sending both men to the floor. "Oi, um, sorry, um… Who are you?" asked the braided man as he jumped to his feet pulling out a small gun.

"Duo! Put that gun away right now," said Athanasia. "Jared are you alright?"

"Yeah…" replied Jared.

"Sorry Thanatos, didn't see you," stammered Duo, "Sorry man, thought you where here to… well that doesn't matter." Looking back to Anthansia he asked, "Would you like me to get the others?"

"Yes, please Duo. Is there others besides you pilots here?"

"Yea, um, Relena, Sally, and Noin."

"Okay, get them too. Um, we can inform Une later. How about we meet in the parlor in twenty minutes."

"Kay," replied Duo as he scampered off to get the others. 'I thought Kat said that she just called and said something about not being able to come? We should probably keep our guard up, just to be safe.'

"Well, I understand why you want to tell Une later, because of her position, but the others?" Jared questioned.

"They are good friends of the guys and some are close to me. And they will just find out anyway so why not now?"

"Kay, so where is this parlor?"

- 20 minutes later-

"Hello, everyone. Um, well, I know this is a bit of a surprise but well there are things that need to be told, and work to be done," started Athanasia. "First off I would like to introduce my very good friend Jared."

"Hi," said Jared as he stood and gave a little wave. His black hair was pulled into his high pony tail with a blue elastic, he also had a darker blue sweat band going a crossed his brow. He was wearing dark blue almost black jeans, with a black t-shirt and a jacket that matched his pants. His black leather collar had a silver charm with a blue stone in it, that matched the cuffs on his wrists though they only had a silver stamp on them and no stone.

Once he sat back down Athanasia told them everything. From what the scientists did, mostly Doctor J, to her and Jared, how they had kept the boys from being swamped in the war, and what she had done since being freed for her prison by Kat. She did not tell them what happened to her at the hands of OZ but she planed to in time, just not now. "Now though I did intend to tell you all this in time, I was hoping that it wouldn't be so soon."

As she paused to think of how she should continue Quatre asked, "What is going on that you feel the need to go back to your old role as our protector?"

Wufei growled his discus on the idea that Athanasia and Jared protected them. "Well, the information that I have collected shows that Olympus, the group who attempted to kill you Kat, has a large arsenal of new mobile suits and dolls, these surpass the ones that the Preventers have. It appears that their sole mission is to kill off the main heads of our government and the people who protect this peace. Jared and I thought that we had killed this origination during the war, but we didn't. I think that they might have even been the puppeteers of OZ, they have too much on file about me."

"Well if they are after the guys wouldn't be wiser to have kept them in the dark till after Olympus is destroyed?" Questioned Noin.

"Well ideally I would have liked to. But we need help. NOT in taking out Olympus but in…, well Jared here was swept up in you success over Marie-maia and the destruction of your gundams. He believed that ours would no longer be needed but since he had a bit more since around him he just dismantled both Red Wing and Blue Fire. And since time is not on our side we need your help to rebuild them."

"You want us to help rebuild your gundams?" Relena asked.

"Well not all of you of course. But if you have any experience with the gundams or mobile suits then yes."

"So that's everyone but Relena," stated Duo. "Shouldn't we inform Une and get others to help?"

"No," said Athanasia. "I know that it would probably be easier but I don't trust Une, especially with these two gundams. Both Red and Blue are more advanced then even Wing Zero. I don't want anyone beyond this group to know how they work."

"That is great wisdom coming from someone who basically grew up with the scientists," remarked Sally.

"Well there where always found of keeping their project secret," said Jared.

"He speaks," joked Duo.

"Yes I speak. Now I know you all worked on your own gundams, and that you, Winner, even worked on the construction of Zero, correct?" asked Jared.

"Quatre please, and yes the Maguanac's and I built Zero," replied Kat.

Jared looked at Athanasia. Leaning closes so only she could hear him said, "We could use more help. Winner trusts the Magunac, what about you?"

Athanasia nodded and said to the group, "Kat, out of the group that helped with zero how many can get here in a half hour?"

Quatre smiled, "Oh, I'm not sure, all of them, especially for you Athanasia."

As soon as her name left Kat's lips Duo, Heero, Wufai, Relena, Sally, and Noin looked confused. Thana had forgotten to mention her name change and this was the first time the six of them had heard it in relation to her. Duo was the first to gain his ability to speak back. "Athanasia?"

"Yes?" replied Athanasia.

"That's your name?" questions Sally.

Athanasia blushed, "Yes. I had been going by my name from the war because of my anger and guilt about what happen to Kat."

Duo asked, "We, Heero Wufai and I, really didn't help that day either, now did we?."

"That's the past, and we can deal with it later right now we need to get Red and Blue each back in one piece." Athanasia stated.

"Alright, lets go." said Duo.

Athanasia smiled, "Alright, you guys go with Jared, after Kat and I call the Maguanacs. I will wait here for them and then follow you."

"They have already been called, and I told them I would be here when the show up," stated Kat.

"Alright then, Kat will stay here with me, and we will be there as soon as the Maguanacs get here."

"Thana…" started Jared.

"Just do it, and you can get a head start on Blue, not that it will help you to get him done faster then I will Red," Athanasia challenged, she didn't want Jared's jealous tendencies to get in the way of the work they had to do.

"You're on." Jared replied as he gave her a kiss on the lips, which she melted into for a bit before pushing him off and telling him to go.

Jared, Heero, Duo, Trowa, Wufai, Sally, Noin, and Relena got into one of the Winner family vans and took off. Once they where out of sight of the mansion Jared stopped the van and said, "It doesn't matter how much Thana trust you guys you have yet to really prove yourselves to me. And," he made a point to look at each of the guys in the eye, "if I hear that any of you have laid a finger on her you will have to deal with me." With that said he started back down the road. The rest of the ride was pretty uneventful, everyone lost in their own thoughts.

-Back at the mansion-

Once the van was out of sight Quatre turned to Athanasia and said, "So you didn't mention your relationship with Jared."

"Oh," started Athanasia blushing, "well we've been together since either of us can remember. And when we had to work together during the war we got really close."

"So, um, what about, well when you where freed?"

"Kat, I never knew you to be lost for words," teased Thana. "And as for your question, well when he never tried to rescue me I assumed he was dead so I didn't bother to look for him until recently."

"And he never looked for you?"

"No," Athanasia replied with a sad smile. "He said that he would have but, well with our mission he didn't have time to. Plus he knew me enough that he thought that I would kill myself before being captured. And I would have, had I not been knocked unconscious before my capture."

"I'm sorry Anna."

Athanasia who had been looking to the floor, hiding the pain she know Kat would see in her eyes, looked up with a puzzled look now in her eyes. "Kat? You just, what did you just call me?"

Quatre smiled, "I called you Anna, is there a problem?"

"No, no, I like it. I was just surprised is all." Athanasia said as she hugged Quatre.

When the Maguanacs got to the mansion they all headed out to the cave which Athanasia promptly named Dawning Phoenix. When Jared had questioned her about the name she said it was fitting, Red Wing and Blue Fire where both being reborn like a Phoenix from the ashes into the dawning of a new day.
