Here is chapter 8. Thanks for all the reviews. I was going to put down all the people that I have gotten response from, but I figured that you would rather read the fic, the names could be a chapter itself for how long the list would be. ^-^;;;. But I would like to send a deep thanks to all those who have reviewed or send emails. It makes my day.

Be warned this is a little dark.

Recap of last chapter.

Usagi was holding a gun to Hiiro's forehead as he went to touch the bike.

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

Hiiro looked at the gun then back at Usagi. He couldn't believe she was doing this all because he wanted to touch the bike. He stopped his thoughts, the solider in him kicked in. he could feel another gun trained on him. Looking at Usagi he notice her eyes focus behind him. Then he saw it, the tell tail red dot moving across her chest to his shadow. Trowa notice it to, but what could he do. Usagi moved he head slightly to tell Hiiro to hit the deck. He gave a small nod back and prayed she wouldn't miss. (HE, he, you guys thought *giggles* that I would have *giggles* Usa shoot Hii-man *busts out laughing* over the bike? hey I am evil but give some credit.)

With in a blink of an eye Hiiro threw himself on to the ground as Usagi brought up the gun and fired four times. Trowa heard the other gun go off and watched at Usagi dropped the gun and grabbed her upper shoulder. She stooped down and picked the gun up and took off in the direction of the shots with Hiiro and Trowa right behind her. The others had stopped as soon as they heard the shots and threw themselves onto the ground. They watched the other three take off. It took a minuet for them to realize what had happened before jumping up and following after their fellow pilots guns drawn. Trowa and Hiiro had lost Usagi when she turned down an ally after the gunman. The ally was a dead end. They were about to leave when there were gunshots above them. Looking up they watched as three black figures jumped from one building to another. They saw Usagi stop at the edge watching the others.

'Dr.J. isn't going to like this.' she thought. 'I can hear him now. Tenshi you jeopardize your mission. If the others caught on...' she gave a mental shrugs before turning around walking about ten feet from the ledge before she ran and jumped. Landing on the other side just as Hiiro and Trowa reached the top and the others had just began to climb up. The figures were two buildings ahead of her. She sped up to try and catch them. She was about to jump to the building they were on when they disappeared. She skidded to a stop.

'What the hell?' she backed up and jumped. Running to the opposite ledge she looked around. No sigh of the three. She heard grunts and curses bellow her. Looking down she watched as the three figures made there was down to the ground. She had to get down there and fast. She couldn't let them get away. They had shot her while trying to shoot Hiiro. Not only that but as the agent of love and justice she couldn't let them get away. Besides not many people knew the faces of the Gundam Pilots. There for they were sent there for a reason and she wanted to know what and why.Looking around for something to help her she notice there were lines of Landry strung up between the two buildings. They went far enough down that she could land with out killing her self.

'Time to put the boys training into effect and hope I haven't been neglecting my senshi training too much.'

She gave a quick prayer before stepping up onto the ledge. Someone called her name. Turning around she saw Trowa and Hiiro land on the same building as her with the other following close behind. She smiled at them and winked before taking a big breath of air and jumping. She did a back flip and disappeared from the boy's sight. Each gave a cry before kicking it into overdrive. Trowa and Hiiro skidded to a stop at the ledge and prepared themselves for the site they would see. Only to find it wasn't what they were looking for. Usagi was jumping and swinging from line to line all the way down. The three figures had just landed to the street and looked up. Took aim and fired up at the boys. Usagi Stopped at the last line and stood up. She looked up to see the five boys all right. She turned to the figures and glared. The figures were backing away slowly form her. They had their guns raised but were shaken at the sight. There was a slier haired and eyed Tenshi standing on a cloths line glaring them. They each shook their heads and aimed more steadily. Usa gave a slight smirk. She waited till the figures began to squeeze the trigger before jumping back just enough to be able to catch the line as she fell, swing around and launch her at the figures. They had shot in fright but had missed. Usa landed on two of them. Knocking one out when his head hit the ground. She rolled and stood up giving a quick round house the only figure remaining. He hit the wall then the ground with a thud. The last figure not knocked out began to get up and charge her. Five shots rang out. The figure skidded to a halt in front of her. She was shaken. She had seen a few dead bodies but they each unnerved her. Thought he dead bodies she had seen never had bullets in them. She hadn't wanted to kill these attackers but scare and knock them out. She began to shake. She found the nearest thing to sit on, plopped down and hugged herself. The pain in her arm began again now that the adrenalin began to fad off. She rocked herself back and forth with tears streaming down her face as she looked at the dead figure.

The boys from above all had their mouths hanging open and eyes bulging as they watched their Tenshi swing through the lines like a monkey, stood on the last one like she was standing on the ground, drop down, hit two of them, knock one out, round house the others. Fear took the place of awe when the other figure began to charge. Each grabbed his gun and shot. Each watched as Usa began to tremble and with out a second thought they were to the fire escape and flying down it as fast as they could.

When they reached her they notice how bad she was. She had stopped hugging herself she was now leaning on the wall sitting on a crate with her eyes closed. Tears were still coming down. She was pale and still shaking, the bandage on her arm had come off and the wound was still bleeding. Looking at the wound they knew a vein or two had been cut but nothing to major. Trowa had reached her first and was applying a new makeshift bandage till they could get her back to the school. The bullet was still in her arm but not to deep, a quick pull and it would be out. Duo and Quatra sat next to her trying to comfort her. Hiiro and Wufei were shaken as well but were checking the three figures for anything that could give who they were. On the first body that Usa had K.O. they found an I.D. card. This guy worked for the Olympian's and he was just a private. An amateur he was no older than the boys themselves. That made Hiiro mad. They were once again dragging young children into the fight created by power hungry men. He debated over whether or not to kill the two others. They knew who the five were. Obviously, they had been sent to kill them, but they also knew Tenshi was with them and she just proven she could be just as deadly as they. He was still in solider mode but the little bit of humanity that had began to surface held him back. Tenshi was still in shock and killing two more people in front of her would surely send her off the cliff she was dangling on. He looked over at Wufei. He nodded to him. They would leave the three here. The other two could go back to their base and explain why one of them was dead, that is if they made it back. That would be more punishment enough than what the five could do to them. Hiiro cursed himself that he didn't have a tracker he could put on them. There was Tenshi's but that would have to stay were it was. (Later on you will find out what or where he had the tracker. GET YOUR HEAD OUT OF THE GUTTER!!!!!!!!)

"What happened?" Wufei asked the others. Hiiro looked over at Wufei. What sort of question was that? He had seen what happened. Looking over his shoulder he understood why he had asked. Trowa was caring Tenshi who looked asleep.

"Blood loss and shock. She passed out." Duo replied. He had no sound of amusement that usually was in his voice. Even in the serious of times it was there but not now. They could all understand why. All of them wanted to cause some harm to the girl for the stunt she had pulled, then again they were very proud of her. It showed they didn't have to worry about her too much. They also wanted to kill the people who sent this little mission, very slowly. They walked back towards the track, staying in what shadows they could not to cause any notice to themselves. They didn't want the local law enforcement to question them. It wouldn't look right to see five boys caring a girl bleeding from a shot in the arm. That would send the new crews flocking to the scene once they figured out who the boys were and find out that there was one dead body and two knocked out in an alley. Besides years of fighting in the wars and the training taught them there would be more where those three came from and they need to be able to defend themselves.

When they reached the car they had a problem. The bike, they couldn't leave it. Someone would still it, not only that, but Tenshi would surely kill them. Quatra called Rashid and told him to send someone out with a truck to retrieve the bike. He had to lie the man saying they were going out and didn't want to take the bike. It would be wasting gas to go all the way back to the school. Which was on the other side of the city. He couldn't very well tell him that Tenshi had been shot by assassin meant for them. That sentence would send down the apocalypse faster than what Allah himself could do.

They came across another problem. What to do about the wound. Even Hiiro was at a loss.

"We can't take her to a hospital." Trowa told the others. "Why not?" Duo shot back at him. Was Trowa insane? They had to get the wound tended to. The others had been thinking along the lines with Duo. "It would be hard to explain why she was shot, that and I am sure Rashid would find out." The mention of questioning and the large manguanacs name shut them all up. What could they do? " We could take her to that onna." Wufei told them. Duo quirked an eyebrow. "Be a little bit more specific there. There is thousands of onnas in the city." Wufei glared at him. "Po, Sally. That preventor that I was with for a time. She was good in medicine." "The Preventor office is in the Sanq Kingdom, down town though." Quatra said quietly. He was having a hard time. He had taught Usagi how to block for him. She had so many emotions the first few days she was awake was hell. One minuet she would be as happy as four Duo's on a caffeine high and then she would be so angry and upset. But now she couldn't block him she was in shock. The emotions were too much for even him to block himself. Hiiro gave a grunt, that translated into get into the car and lets go. Duo had hopped into the front. Though he was the only one with out a license he also was the best driver they had. He could pilot anything and at amazing speed and maneuverability. Right now they needed the speed and some one to weave in and out of traffic. It was the evening and time for everyone to be heading home.

They had gotten to the office in fifteen minuets and it was a forty-five- minuet drive. They rushed her in and got one of the doctors and someone to find Sally Po. Sally arrived and got a brief account. She already knew there was no way she would get much more out of the boys, but the girl. She had been in touch with Dr. J. and knew some about her. She had a hard time shoving the boys out of the room. She wanted to talk to the girl alone.

Two hours later Usagi finally came around.

"So the Chibi Tenshi has awoken." Sally said amusingly. " I think that name rather does fit you. Your height and hair and eye color. You look like you had fallen from the sky."

Usagi rolled her eyes. The women laughed. She looked over the women, she had to be trust worthy if the boys had left her with her alone like this. Usagi raised an eyebrow at the women.

"Po, Sally Po. I worked with the boys in the wars and from time to time I still do now and then. they rushed you here and got a hold of me. It seems you gotten shot pulling a stupid stunt, according to the Pilots." It was Sally's turn to raise an eyebrow. "Though that isn't the exact words they used to describe your so called stunt. I never knew Quatra could cuss."

Usagi shook her had and grinned. She knew what words the boys probably did use. Reaching into her pocket she handed her pilot her Sally.

'They are just jealous that I saved there Asses. A gun was trained on Hiiro from behind I was in front of him and seen it. Pulled my gun fired four times, got hit, chased the figures through the streets then on the roof tops, swung around on some laundry lines, knocked two out and when the third came at me, the boys finally decided to have their fifteen minutes of fame.'

After reading it a few times Sally had to sit down on the floor. She was laughing so hard. It was all to funny, one she saved the perfect solider, out ran all five boys which is rather hard, K.O. two of the supposed assassins before the five most deadliest people in the world could pull out their precious guns and shoot. It was just too rich. She was going to have a field day with this. It took a good twenty minutes before both females had composed them selves. Usagi had watched as Sally sat there and laughed she couldn't understand it. Then it hit her what she had written. The same thoughts were going through her head. Minna was going to kill her for her so-called stunt and for telling this Retched Onna as Wufei proclaimed her. She had heard the stories and wanted to meet this woman. Now she had and she liked her. She was kind and a pure hearted person, besides she knew she had dirt on Wufei, she had spent some time alone with him on a ship for a long time.

Sally sobered up. She sat next to Usagi and talked in a whisper. She knew the Pilots were outside and she didn't want them to hear this.

"I have a message from Dr. J. He had placed me in helping you with the "Mission." I am the one you are to report to when not able to get a hold of J. Also he said that give the boys a few mission's alone before popping up. That will and should throw them off from you."

You could almost see her trademark Aku tail and horns come out. She smiled she couldn't wait for her to begin the second part of her mission. Phases one was nearly complete, Help the Gundam Pilots regain their Humanity long lost from the wars." She still couldn't understand how the Dr. knew about her little gift of drawing people to her and helping them in her on little way.

She gave Sally a hug, but stopped the pain in her arm was still there but it wasn't so bad now. In a few days the wound would be gone thanks there fast healing. Sally smiled at the girl and gave her a hug back. She couldn't help, but to like the girl. She was sweat, and she had a warmth coming from her, besides someone who could get all five of those boys to care and actually be terrified of this little Tenshi being harmed, had gained the biggest points in her book. Even Hiiro had a look of fear in his normally hardened eyes. J. was right. This girl was what those five needed. She helped the Tenshi of the bed and to the door. She was still a little groggy from the pain pills. When they had reached the door Sally remembered something.

"Oh, one more thing. While you were out I checked you're vocally cords. They have healed greatly and with some practice and training you could talk again. So I want you to come to me twice a week after school and we will see what we can do."

She had opened the door while talking and the boys heard her too. They were frozen. Tenshi could be able to talk again. Joy seemed to bubble inside of them, even Hiiro. Duo gloomped Sally the same time Usagi had. Sally let out a gasp and struggled for air. Which was rather hard since she was also trying to laugh. Finally the two let her go.

"Your welcome." She and Usagi then looked at the boys back to each other before collapsing into each other laughing. "Baka Onna's what is so funny?" Wufei demanded. Sally waved a hand at him dismissing the question. "Nothing, nothing at all, Chang." She breathed a few time to catch her breath. She hadn't laughed this hard in a long time. "Remember, Tenshi what I told you." Usagi nodded then proceed to salute her but instead smacked her hand in to her head and almost poking out her eye. Duo and Quatra laughed while the other three rolled their eyes. She was still a little tipsy from the medicine. Finally she just jumped onto Wufei's back. Causing Duo and Sally who was following them out to go off into laughter again. Wufei mad some of usually threats but couldn't carry them out. Tenshi had fallen asleep and he couldn't just drop her. Though how tempting it was. He just choked down he pride and walked towards the garage.

Okay minna that was the eighth chapter. It had taken me a while , school and work is getting the better of me so if I don't have the next chapter out soon you will understand why.

Gotten a few questions here is a few answers

The outers or rather one of the outers will make an appearance soon, so will a few of the inner, things will become more clearer and the plot will defiantly thicken, as for when the real romance will start..something's have to happen and as for the Ginger Bread man. I have to wait for the right time. It wouldn't be good if her showed up to soon; the boys are still al little jumpy. Wouldn't you if that was done to you.

That's it for now

Ja ne minna-san.
