Look twice castles in the sky
David practically had to restrain his younger sister from hopping right into the suit and taking off. The bouncy girl kept bouncing around him in a circle as he was looking over the two suits that lay inside the vehicle. Her voice rang out clean, clear, and annoying.
"Now?? Can we take them for a ride now? Please?? Please??" David made a mental sweat drop and grabbed his sister. She looked at him with big...round....baby eyes... David started to buckle under the gaze.
/well... I HAVE checked over the suits...they seem safe enough...and they are to the exact specs we designed, we do have every right... I mean we did steal them last night, Steal?!?!? No, no no! We didn't steal them, we found them, and by all means they are ours. I wonder if they we're placed there for us to find? Could this be some kind of trap?? Laid by evil lawyers or something?? No, that crazy talk...Wow, those boosters on the back of that mech. look magnificent, I wonder how she would handle under hyper drive at 100 g's..../ David thought as he placed a slender hand on the cool metal of the machine and let go of his sister. Angel sat on the side of the tracks staring at her brother who was deep in thought. She watched David pace beside the truck slowly.
/Come on already! Stop measuring all the technical crap! I wanna' take 'em for a ride! Boy, he sure does act like Trowa with this entire cool and collected thinking bit...He even looks a little like him too, Nah...more like Wufie than any thing else...but he sure as hell acts like Tro-Tro/
"Hey Trowa! Let's go already!" Angel shouted bouncing up again. David Looked at her with a small smile and Angel knew she had him /got cha'/ If her puppy dog eyes didn't work than using their lil' nicknames would. David Jumped up to the top of the carrier truck's backing and replied "All right Duo. But I'll unload them!" Angel clapped her hands and ran to the side as she waited for her older brother to pilot the beasts out into the open. Angel whistled as 'Trowa' slide down a jump line from hers.
"It's a long way up. Think you can handle it?" 'Trowa' asked 'Duo' gave him a quirky smile and said hotly "Oh, I can handle it. Do you think any one can see the Gundams from up there 'Trowa'?"
He shaded his eyes from a sun glare and casually remarked, "Don't think so. We're miles from anywhere. This track was abandoned long ago.
With a Wink and a nod the two clung to zip lines and mad their ways up to the cockpits of the Gundams. 'Trowa' ran his hand over the soft material of the seat and lovingly buckled the shoulder harnesses. With practiced grace he slide his strong hands into the spaces of the Controls and Pressed buttons. He shifted the Mecha forward and felt as the thousands of pounds of metal collided with the ground. /damn! I hope that isn't too loud.../ Meanwhile 'duo' held her breath as she entered the cockpit of her custom Gundam for the first time. With surprising ease she flicked on the machine and watched the screens blip to life. Thru the monitors she could see her brother, 'Trowa' moving his Gundam. "This is so easy!" 'Duo' exclaimed as she piloted the Gundam beside her brother's. "It's like they react to us!" ((We do)) came the response. There was a very metallic like voice filling the cockpit. "HOLY CRAp!" the female pilot yelped. 'Trowa's' face filtered onto one of the screens. "What's the matter 'Duo??" he asked as worry lines crossed his face. His small black ponytail bobbed behind his head as he moved in the projection. "Nothing...sorry...it's just even the A.I unit is in mine!" she said sheepishly for being surprised at herself. "Duh 'Duo' you braided baka! You designed it! You put the A.I specs in it! Every thing else is here so why not that?" 'Trowa' lectured /Honestly I don't know what she's thinking sometimes/
'Duo' blocked her brother out and she started to look over the control panel. "Let's see what this bad boy can do!" the Computer voice started again ((This Machine can do a lot mam')) she giggled and pressed on of the shift sticks all the way forward. She Pressed down on a large red button next to the monitor and punched in her favorite numbers into the computer. As she had anticipated it reacted as she had designed it, to take off.
(( Do You require assistance?)) The voice asked in the annoying voice of some one from customer service.
"Ya! Can you go download a better voice??" 'Duo' asked as she shook her head in wonderment. ((Affirmative )
'Duo' breathed easy as she now knew she could consult an interactive computer incase of emergency. She Threw the Metallic Beast into over drive and let the engine roar.
'Trowa' watched as his impulsive sister took off into the sky.
/oooo sht. this is not going to end well is it? What is she doing? Doesn't she know people can see her form up there?? Wait a minute...where did she go?? Man o man/
Trowa pushed his gears into mode and he also took off. He felt the pressure of gravity in the cockpit and remembered to hit the compression button to stabilize everything. He switched on a side monitor and for a moment relaxed.
/Always let the prey come to you. She's a show off. She'll come back. / He thought as he closed his eyes for a moment. Sure enough a load blip sounded out and he saw her Gundam appear on the screen. She was coming right at him with her Beam saber out! 'Trowa' sighed a deep sigh and piloted the metal beast to the side. /so that's how you want to play eh/
He whipped out his Gundam's left hand and fired a large Vulcan blast directly at his sister. She sliced it apart with her saber and her indignant face appeared on the screen.
"What the hell! You tried to shoot me!" she yelled, red faced. "O please. Like I didn't see that sneak attack you tried to launch on me!" Her older brother stated. (( You did try a preemptive strike...Angel)) The computer piped in now in a more pleasant female voice. ' Duo' Grinned for a moment, happy that her machine had know her name and resigned the matter. Then with a coy smile she yelled into the microphone "Let's RACE! Last one to space buys cheeseburgers!" She took off with an explosion and 'Trowa' wasn't far behind.
(( cheese burger)
"Just be sure to remember to buy mine this time!" he said softly and hit a booster button.
'Duo' was in the lead and she fished thru the many Cd's she had thought to bring. "AH ha!" she exclaimed finding the desired one.
(( Do you wish to play this??)) the new female voice inquired. And shot out a small slot to hold the CD. 'Duo' Pulled it out of the case and Popping it in, the Music began to filter out of the large speakers around her. A fast techno beat filled the cockpit becoming faster as the song went on. " Do you ever question your life? Do you ever wonder why?" 'Duo' sung along with the techno-fied version of the classic song 'castles in the sky.
" Do you ever see in your dream, all the castles in the sky?"
She sped up a bit and broke thru a cloud barrier. Beside her, her brother was catching up. His red Gundam glistening in dark contrast to her black Gundam. She felt the g's in the cabin increase and she could see the barrier of space approaching. The song continued on at a fast pace and seemed to match her heartbeat. "O Tell me why? Do we build castles in the sky? O Tell me why? Do we build castle's way up high?"
Gundam Ranma (Wild horse) passed her and she had to shield her eyes from the glare that the sun caused as it reflected off the glassy hull. 'Duo' and 'Trowa could both feel the stress on their Gundams as they entered space, but something wasn't right. A bright light enveloped them both and their Gundams. (( Angel? There is an Interdimensional disturbance.)) But 'Duo' wasn't listening to her A.I system. She was mesmerized by the ensign of colors that where exploding. The Brightness of the Light Caused 'Duo' to pass out and the last thing she heard was the song ringing out "Do you ever Question your life? Do you ever wonder why? Do you ever see in your dreams? All the castles in the sky...O tell me why; do we build castles in the sky.... all the castles way up high?
'Trowa' shouted as the light threatened to burn his retinas out and he heard the COM link go dead, filling with static.
/Oh sht! Oh SHt! Angel!/ His Gundam was flipped upside down and he was thrown forward as he watched the seemingly never ending void they where hurtling down.
