QUEST FOR LOVE, QUEST FOR DREAM,
QUEST FOR ALL TRUTH!!
Because only the dream hidden in your eyes
Won't be taken away by anyone
Vividly now, embrace the truth!!

In your smile you hide the scars of a cooled heart
You're gripping tightly onto pieces of glass...

Even if you lied to yourself, you can't become grown up
Just believe in only your earnest feeling...

Whatever kind of sadness and pain
I only want to share it with myself, even among crowds of people...

QUEST FOR LOVE, QUEST FOR DREAM,
QUEST FOR ALL TRUTH!!
My uncontrollable enthusiasm
Draws out the future that I aimed for
'Cause the "answer" = "your own self"!!

Dido rushed through the halls the St. Gabriel institute with very little air in her lungs as she fought desperately to get to Jin's bedroom before Mariemaia headed off with Une to the Sanc Kingdom. Her blue hair bounced around her face as she turned the corner barely missing several rough housing boys that stood right beside the corner, the watched her vanish down the hall before returning to their game.

Dido stared down at her sweating palm trying to making out the drizzling ink pen writing that was the number of Jin's door room; no.167 was the number but she had written so quick that the six resembled a poorly written "S" in some ways. Rounding the last corner Dido stopped in front of the young man's bedroom door, her chocolate brown eyes began to water with excitement as she grabbed the door knob.

To her surprise the door opened so she stepped inside and she found Jin ravaging through his drawers, rushing over to his backpack and tossing clothing into the bag in quite a hurry. She watched in sheer question as he grabbed his washing equippment and shove it into the front of his backpack then turn her direction. He stopped dead in his tracks at the sight of Dido standing in front of his bedroom door looking as though she was caught with her hand in the cookie jar.

He rolled his eyes as he slipped into his peacoat then walked over to his bed to grabb his backpack. "What you want," He asked in a rather cold tone. Dido flinched at the harshness of his voice. "Where are you going?" Dido replied. "Out," Jin grunted as he walked past the girl and opened the door right on her. Dido stumbled out of the way just as he exited the bedroom. Regaining her footing she rushed out of the room and shut the door before chasing after him. Dido came up to his side with a smile. Jin counteracted this with a glare.

Dido frowned and before she knew what she had done, Dido's hand came in contact with Jin's face in a most violent way. Jin stumbled backward tripping over his own legs, he fell to the ground with a thud. Dido's hands covered her mouth as she stared at the blank expression Jin held in his features as he climbed off of the floor holding his throbbing cheek. "Why go do a fool thing like that?" Jin asked, his voice void of all emotion. Dido had no excuse for her actions, she turned her head to the side in ashamed of herself. "Gomen nasai," She whispered.

Jin grunted and headed down the hall. Dido remained where she was for a moment before remembering why exactly she came to see the young boy. Dido dashed down the hall at top speed rounding the corner almost colliding with the wall; she caught sight of Jin jogging down the stairs at a usual speed and she picked up the pace. The 17-year-old jumped down a flight of stairs in order to catch up with the boy. Her legs ached with pain from the long jump but Dido continued forward down the flight of stairs desperate to catch the Korean teenager before he exited the building and headed off on his bike.

Dido peered over the railing of the third to last flight of stairs catching Jin rush outside the front door, swallowing all her fears she jumped through the narrow space and landed roughly on the ground into a large garbage disposal much to her delight. Groaning the tall girl climbed out of the GD and headed out of the building, she rushed down the stairs toward the where all the vehicles were situated hoping she would find Jin somewhere in that area.

Trying to find him is like trying to find a needle in a haystack, Dido mused mentally entering the parking lot. She stopped to catch her breath while her eyes scanned the area for a missing bike. But she fond none. Dido's head drooped in defeat knowing she had ran after the boy in vain or so she thought. As she began to turn around the 16-year-old was met my a motorcycle that pulled up in front of her, the rider was none other than Jin himself. Isn't he underage? She thought baffled.

Dido blinked in utter confusion before he pulled her toward the Motorcycle. "Hop on," He commanded. Dido nodded and climbed onto the motorcycle behind him, reluctantly wrapping her arms around his waist. Jin pulled out of the parking lot toward the its' exit. Once they were out on the road they trailed behind a black limo with a preventers Logo on the back of its hood. "Jin are you going to apologize to Mariemaia for giving her the cold shoulder earlier?" Dido shouted. Jin never took his eyes off the limo as it rounded the corner, he followed suit. "There's nothing to apologize for," He replied. Dido began to become irritated by the boy's attitude and was tempted to slap him but the fear of getting thrown off the motorcycle kept her from doing so.

They continued most of the ride in silence, although despite Dido's efforts to have a conversation with the young Korean, he did nothing but grunt or ignore her. Dido contemplated on how exactly she was going to the clammy Jin to open up Mariemaia before he ruined his friendship with her completely. This was not an easy task for Dido to ponder on, but she was determined to make things right. Peering over his shoulder she noticed they were close to the Sanc Kingdom, the white peeks of the building could be seen far off behind a cluster of trees below the beltway.

She focused her eyes on the limo and wondered if Maiemaia was actually inside the vehicle with that Une character. Sighing she rested her head on Jin's shoulder and enjoyed the silence of ride. Jin stared through his sunglasses with a wondering gaze. Dido's words had struck something inside him and he wondered if he should apologize for his cold and off behavior to one the only true friends he had.

Duo parked the Jeep in the back of the Sanc Kingdom careful not to wake the slumbering girl beside him. He sat in the seat for a while as he felt a stab of pain in his legs that had bothered him when he was sleep return once again. He gritted his teeth in an attempt to keep himself from let out of any sound that indicated pain; Hilde's ears would have picked up on it like a sonar system. He sighed gratefully once the pain in his legs were gone while at the same time considering to see a doctor before anything worse happened to him because of that accursed car accident.

Brushing his bangs out his eyes he peered at the afternoon sun with intent colbolt blue eyes. He smiled wondering why people on the colonies settled for a sunlight simulation instead of the real thing. Resting his head on the steering wheel he stared down at his lap counting the many small holes in his pants. "Man......," He muttered to himself. Duo was beginning to feel the after affects of not being able to talk to his fellow pilots. Quickly he climbed out of the car without opening the door, he strolled over to Hilde's side to wake her up.

He placed a hand on her shoulder then shook her gently. After a moment Hilde's aquamarine eyes opened and for a moment Hilde forgot where she was until she turned to gaze at the physically tired Duo who turned away abruptly. "Duo...?" Hilde spoke softly. She unbuckled herself and turned to find Duo pulling his backpack from underneath all the things she had packed into the back of the jeep, then gather up a box into his arms. "Hey give me a hand will ya? I can't carry all this stuff by myself," Duo said.

Hilde, once out of the car folded her arms across her chest with an unconvinced look on her face. "Really, you can't? You are a man, Duo, act like one," Hilde retorted jokingly. Duo however, found this to be no laughing matter. His legs were still hurting and he just wanted to go and crash on one of Relena's comfy guest beds. "Yeah, sure," He muttered. Hilde's arms fell to her side in confusion thinking what she had just heard from him was not what she excepted. In fact whenever she made a joke like that he usually smiled at her before heading off to the junkyard.

Heading over the back of the jeep she stacked two boxes onto eachother and followed quietly behind Duo. They trotted up the stairs coming to a halt at the front door that automatically opened revealing an ecstatic Relena Darlain dressed in a blue blouse and a long flowing solid skirt. She smiled at the sight of Duo's now chipper expression. "Hello, Duo," She said politely. "Hey, hime---oofph!" Duo was cut off mid-scentence by Hilde who shoved past him to greet Relena.

Relena removed one of the boxes from off the top of the one Hilde was carrying and helped them unpack their things. But not before she gave Duo an apologetic smile which he shrugged off with a fake smile. As the two girls chattered in the living room with Lokey lying at their feet Duo finished unloading the Jeep and carried the last of his and Hilde's objects into the guest room they were staying in. He stepped outside into the hall way to listen to Hilde's excited chatter before returning to the solitude of the bedroom.

Duo stared into the vanity's mirror with a look of disappointment before dragging himself toward his bed and crashed into mattress waiting to fall into sweet oblivion. He kept his eyes closed for the longest of times until he heard a loud creek at the end of his bed. He shot up into an upright position wishing he had his gun with him at that moment before he noticed two unmistakable Prussian blue eyes staring at him, their owner stood in the moonlight that shinned through the window into the room. "Hey Duo," Heero said blandly. Duo blinked for a brief moment flabbergasted before relaxing his body.

"Geez, I wish you wouldn't do that!" He grumbled irritably. Heero made his way around the end of the bed and flopped down onto the mattress beside his American friend. "Do what?" He replied. Duo shook his head, Heero still had his ways of being too oblivious of what he did at times. "Nothing. Anyway when'd you get here?" The 17-year-old asked. Heero stared down at his fingers in an examining type of way before answering Duo's question.

"This morning," Heero stated. "I'm sleeping in the room across from you." Duo nodded, he stared out the window at the full moon with an admiring gaze. He wondered still if Heero ever looked at the moon. And as if on cue Heero said; "The moon's beautiful isn't it?" Duo did a double take unsure he had heard the former soldier correctly. Heero just smirked proud of the reaction he got from his friend. "Yeah it sure is," Duo sighed leaning back a bit. The two young men remained in silence as they gazed at the full moon.

"........I'm worried about Duo," Hilde explained. Relena placed her cup down onto the coffee table with a look of confusion on her face. Hilde had just been talking to her about her mismatch of an outfit she was wearing and Relena wasn't sure how this got to the subject of Duo who had not returned from upstairs. "What do you mean worried?" She asked. Hilde stared down at her warm cup of tea with a hesitant gleam in her eyes.

"Hilde....?" Relena whispered placing hand on her shoulder. Hilde's aquamarine eyes shimmered with an unknown fear the European girl hat never seen before in her life. She always described Hilde was one of the stronger women next to Dorothy and Catherine she knew. Mostly because she thought of herself as a weak person. Reluctantly, Hilde explained everything that had happened during the time she and Duo were out for a walk up to the point where he had a run in with traffic. Relena listened fearfully with a sympathetic gaze. She noticed Hilde was whipping her eyes and had dropped her coffee. Hilde stared down at the stain on the rug. She automatically cursed in German before picking up the crack coffee cup. Lokey's nose began twitch at he aroma of coffee. The dog rose on all fours and began to lick the spot where the coffee had fallen. "Get away from there Lokey!" Relena shooed the dog away from the spot. Lokey whimpered in irritation as he headed into the kitchen.

"I'm so sorry Relena, I really am," Hilde apologized nervously. Relena chuckled in amusement before calling one of her maids that went by the name of Erica who was an expert at getting stains of any kind out all sorts of fabrics. Relena lead Hilde out of the living room and into her downstairs study. Hilde was still a bit bummed out; whether by the coffee cup incident or what had happened to Duo, Relena was unsure. Relena placed two firm hands on the German girl's shoulders. "It's all right Hilde, your worn by the day and worried about Duo. Go and get some rest, I'll see if I can get a doctor to look him over ... with his consent of course," Relena explained. "In the meantime go and rest, I'll let you know when the others arrive." Hilde smiled at the European girl's kind generosity before heading out of the study and upstairs to her and Duo's bedroom.

Dorothy fiddled with the rearview mirror as she straightened her out of place eyebrows with a simple brush of a single finger. She sat in the front of the Limo with Rashid who offered to take them to the Sanc Kingdom once they arrived on earth. Quatre remained in the back listening to a strange harmonic tune from a classic orchestra. When Quatre accepted Rashid's generous offer Dorothy did her best not to get angry at the fact that she couldn't be alone with him. She did, however, go weak in the knees at the sight of Quatre's innocent smile when he turned to explain the situation to her.

She couldn't believe despite all that he went through he could still smile like he did as though the war never happened. Perhaps it was just his way of hiding the pain he felt or perhaps she was just being too damn thoughtful of Quatre's well being and facial expressions. Sighing she fixed the rearview mirror back into its rightful position. She slumped back into the leather passengers seat with a bothered sigh. There never anything to do when Rashid was around. "Is there something the matter Miss Dorothy?" Radshid asked.

Dorothy did no reply she stared out the window with an unreadable expression on her face. Rashid frowned truly annoyed by her spoiled personality as he continued to drive. Dorothy spotted a vehicle that sported two people and a sort of wagon attached to the back of it coming up fast across from the them. Dorothy's browl furrowed once she noticed that their vehicle was aimed from for the drivers side. "Rashid watch out!!" She shouted. Radshid turned to his left noticing the vehicle which he noticed was Motorcycle barreling down the street coming right at them.

He hit the breaks throwing both Quatre and Dorothy forward. Dorothy's arms hit the dashboard while Quatre's seatbelt came undone and he fell onto the floor. The cyclist hit his breaks swerving to the side, the motorcycle slid until he brought his foot upward which collided with the drivers door bringing them to a halt. Enraged, Dorothy stepped out of the car wanting to do nothing but to hurt the motorcyclist beyond healing hands. She stepped in front of the motorcycle watcheding the riders pull off their helmets.

"Hey what's the big idea of almost hitting us, you lousy excuse for a-----." Dorothy was cut off mid-scentence when the driver decided to speak. "I don't think your in a position to insult anyone with the driver you have, Dorothy," The young man said curtly. Dorothy stood dumbfounded in her place at the sight of a scowling Trowa Barton and a waving Catherine Bloom before her. Quietly, with her wounded pride the young woman headed back to her side of the car. Catherine watched her step back into the car frowning. She kneed Trowa hard in his side.

The Latin American grunted in pain before giving the 19-year-old girl a pleading look of an innocent. "Don't give me that look!" Catherine chided. "You could've been a lot less harsher than you were. Honestly, Trowa you are so immature sometimes." Trowa smiled knowingly before he turned to the humming sound of an automatic window coming down. His green eyes brightened at the sight of Quatre. "Hi so we meet again," Quatre beamed happily. Dorothy watched them with envious eyes before turning her head away from the scene.

Catherine waved to the young peacekeeper before wrapping her arms around Trowa's waist once more. Quatre watched the Latin American blush faintly before resuming their conversation. "What's up Quatre?" Trowa managed to get out. Quatre shrugged placing his hand upon the top of the window. "I'm heading over to the Sanc Kingdom, would you like to join us?" Quatre asked. Trowa opened his mouth to protest against riding in a limo when he had spent his well earned money to rent the motorcycle the two sat on but Catherine beat him to it.

"Sure, we'll just follow behind you," She said politely. Quatre stared at the strange contraption behind their motorcycle figuring it was what held their luggage before he nodded in agreement. The window went back up and the limo was in motion. Trowa and Catherine placed their helmets back onto their heads and followed after the limo. Catherine leaned back slightly to check on the wagon that held their important items sighing in relief that it hadn't turned over and opened. When she had bought as a bonus deal for buying the motorcycle from an undignified vehicle salesmen she noticed the latch on the wagon's door was a bit weak.

This lead her to worry about placing her luggage into the incapable hands of the rusty wagon, but to her relief Trowa managed to find an extra lock and key lying the salesmen's office (when he had decided to poke around for information on the salesmen) and locked it onto the weakened latch. Catherine was brought of her thoughts when she felt a strange rubbing from Trowa's stomach, she stared at his lower half curiously before shrugging it off as just simple bodily noises. The motorcycle continued driving behind the limo as it headed to the Sanc Kingdom.

Dido squeezed the death out of Jin when he came to a screeching halt halfway through the entrance of the Sanc Kingdom. Jin wriggled in her vice-grip as he shut the bike down. "Leggo of me!!" He almost shouted through his teeth. Dido opened her eyes realizing they had stopped, her eyes stared down at her arms that were wound tightly around Jin's small but muscular waist before releasing it. Jin stumbled off the back clutching his sides in pain, the woman had a grip worse than Tomeki's sludge hammer punch.

He breathed careful breaths as he tried to ease the pain in his sides before he shoved Dido off his bike. The blue-haired girl fell onto the ground with cry that was loud enough to warn every existing animal in the forest that wasn't too far from the Sanc Kingdom that they were within this vicinity. Dido clamped her hand over her mouth knowing she had made a grave error, she turned to see the lethal onyx blue gaze of Jin's before he brought the kickstand up and wheeled the motorcycle past her and hid in the bushes.

"Sorry," Dido muttered apologetically. Jin said nothing he simply stepped through the entrance of the Sanc Kingdom with Dido following quietly behind. "Why'd you follow me anyway?" Jin asked unable to silence his curiosity. Dido looked up from the ground with a questioning gaze to his sudden question before she remembered why she followed him. "To make sure that you apologize to Mariemaia!" She snapped in a low tone of voice. Jin scoffed. "So your friendship with her doesn't suffer I bet," he muttered racing across the stairs. Dido said nothing which pretty much answered the Korean's question altogether. He stepped up to the front door with a hesitant look on his face.

Dido noticed this and decided to knock for him. Jin sent a glare in her direction but she ignored him wearing a proud look. After a moment the door opened, Dido almost squealed in excitement at the sight of Relena Darlain, she was actually standing in front of the proclaimed queen of peace! Relena smiled confused by the girl's presence before she turned to stare at the unusually tall 13-year-old. Her blue eyes widened as her mind flashed back to the pictures of the young boy that Mariemaia was hanging onto and the picture of the little boy with the beautiful but haunted eyes.

Jin began to feel uncomfortable with her staring at him like some painting until her utter the words "It's you..... the boy with the haunted eyes.....," Jin backed away from the door slightly unsure of what she meant. She grabbed by the arm, Relena pulled him inside Dido followed them and shut the door behind her. Jin tried not to show his fear but the look Relena had spooked him quite a bit. Had Heero and Duo told her he was staying at St. Gabriele?

A thousand questions ran through his brain as he tried to wrench his arm out of her grip but to no avail. Relena sat him down onto the couch just as Mariemaia and Une traveled upstairs to inspect the room they would be staying in. Dido wanted nothing more than to tell Relena how much she admired her and her efforts to keep peace in ESUN but instead she jogged up the stairs to see what Mariemaia was doing.

Jin watched Relena with nervous eyes as she pulled a picture out of her right pants pocket and showed it to him. His breath was caught in his throat at the sight of his younger self before he was unwillingly dragged to earth. He folded his arms across his chest. "You've got me confused with someone else ma'am," Jin lied. Relena's eyes narrowed in disbelief. "No, I don't, your this little boy aren't you?" Relena said. Jin shoved her against the coffee table knocking her over then made his way toward the front door ignoring her cry of pain. There was loud rustling noise above him which meant someone had heard Relena.

Blinded by panic he ripped the door open and prepared to run out of the building in case it was who he thought it was. Relena turned herself over off her back struggling to climb to her feet. She turned to meet the fearful gaze of the teenage boy standing at the front door, once she got to her feet she watched him ready himself to rush out of the door. "Wait!!" Relena cried desperately. "I don't want to hurt you, I only want to help you!" Jin paused in halfway out of the front door, he slowly turned his head back toward her with a confused eyes as he tried to calm his panicked heart. "I don't know what happened to you exactly Jin, but I know how it feels to loose someone close to you." Relena made his way toward him at slow cautioned pace Jin watched her body language carefully as it aroused something in his mind.

Her honey blonde hair was long just like hers! Relena's blue eyes and kind smile did nothing to stop the raging ocean of emotions from fighting to rise to the surface as Jin fought to push the memory of her out o his mind. Relena noticed Jin was trembling and stopped. "What's wrong?" She asked concerned. Jin's head raised upward as tears fell down his face. And with no control over himself he rushed toward Relena and launched himself onto her. Relena was caught off guard by the sudden sound of Jin's loud sobs.

"Okaasan-----'Tousan!!" He cried into her shirt. Relena gently wrapped her arms around him before fall to the ground due to his complete and utter weight pressing down on her. She looked up to find Heero standing at the foot of the stairs with an inquiring look in his eyes then stared down at Jin almost glaring. "What happened?" Heero asked folding his arms across his chest.

Relena felt Jin stiffen at the sound of Heero's voice before she answered. "Nothing Heero," Relena replied quickly. Heero wasn't buying that for a moment, stepping forward he kneeled down in front of Relena and Jin before he pulled out of his gun. Jin rose from against Relena's chest the second he heard a gun cock, he turned to find out who it was.

"What are you doing here Jin?" Heero pressed the barrel of the gun against his head, Jin in turn stared straight into Heero's eyes. "I won't ask again.....," The Japanese teenager snapped. Jin carefully rose to his feet, Heero followed suit; only this time he had the gun aimed for the teen's heart. Duo came trotting down the stairs with a curious Mariemaia following him. The American stopped dead in his tracks at the sight of Jin with a gun at his head and Heero wielding the weapon.

"Nani?? Heero what's he doin' here?" Duo blurted out pushing Mariemaia behind him. Heero shrugged as he pressed his finger against the trigger. Jin was unable to move paralyzed by fear as he saw Heero pull the trigger back completely. Relena jumped at the sound of a hollow click before realizing there wasn't magazine in Heero's gun.

Jin blinked in confusion feeling the barrel of the gun removed from his head. His shoulder's slumped in relief, Heero maintained his indifferent expression as he turned to leave the living room. Duo watched the young boy his colbolt blue eyes examining his face. The blank expression in his onyx blue eyes made the 17-year-old worry. Unsure if he should talk to the boy he followed Heero to give the boy his space figuring he wanted just that. He managed to catch up with Heero and began to ask what the situation between him and Jin was. Heero stared back at his friend with a worried expression his face before he began to explain.

Downstairs Jin stood in absolute silence unable to move himself from his current position. He blinked several times before he noticed Relena had placed her hand on his shoulder. He turned to meet her concerned blue eyes then immediately turned away at the feel of his emotions stirring once again. "Sorry about that," He said quietly. "I'll be on my way." Jin shrugged her hand off his shoulder but Relena wasn't about the boy out of the house before she reassured him of being able to trust her. Grabbing him by the wrist Relena stopped him dead in his tracks.

"Please wait......," She whispered pleadingly. Jin's eyes shifted in her direction but he never turned to do the same, he stared into Mariemaia's pale blue eyes for a moment noticing the same hurt in her eyes when he gotten up from his bed. Mariemaia turned her back on him. He felt a stab of guilt before deciding to pay attention to the Darlain girl. "I you know may not want to here this, but I just want to help you. You seem to be an emotional wreck because of what happened to you. Just stay here for a while and then maybe join us on our trip to the mountains...."

Mariemaia spun back around in aghast at the very mention of Jin accompanying them on the trip the mountains (cutting of Jin's retort to Relena's comment about him being an emotional wreck). She opened her mouth to protest but the steely look that Relena told her to keep what she had to say to herself. Mariemaia felt as though she was going to be trapped in prison with someone she didn't want to be near her coming with the rest of them.

She dashed up the stairs to her and Une's room. Jin watched her leave, the guilt within him grew more and more. Relena moved from her current position stepping in front of him flashing her kind smile, Jin's expression softened a bit. "So what do you say? It's just for this week. Afterward you go wherever you please," Relena explained.

Jin sighed in defeat unable to uphold himself under her caring gaze for it reminded him too much of her. "Fine, just for the week," He replied grudgingly. Relena smiled and pulled him into a hug praying she didn't just violate his space. Jin stiffened at the feeling of her soft hair and skin against him. Pulling out their embrace Relena directed him toward the bedroom at the very end of the hall nearest to the second flight of stairs where her bedroom resided (but she didn't tell him that). Jin groaned wondering how he was going to get past Une if he ever ran into her. "By the way, you might want to take off that jacket, it dose get a bit warm inside the house this time of season," Relena informed him with a wink. Jin blinked unaware that he was still wearing his peacoat. Grumbling under his breath he rushed upstairs toward the end of the hall where his bedroom was.

Later that night, the final bout of guests, Catherine, Trowa, Dorothy and Quatre arrived a little around eleven past midnight and Pegan patiently directed toward the last two bedrooms available on the second floor. Relena had to give Dido a room of her own on the third floor where her bedroom was.

Elsewhere Ralph Kurt stood at the edge of the forest as he watched all of the lights turning off inside the building through is binoculars. Lowering them from his face he began to ponder on all that had happened between the Vice foreign minister and Jin Toshinio. She had managed to persuade the boy to stay in Sanc Kingdom which made his job a bit easier. At least in the part of looking for him anyway. The 22-year-old's mind wandered back to what Chris had told him and then the mission Objective Margaret had given him. Find the boy bring him to her..... or let the boy go like and quit the job Margaret had given him because it ended the lives of so many who had no lived life to the fullest.

He shivered as the wind began to pick up around him. "How in the world does a child with amnesia hold a threat to peace when in fact, he hardly remembers anything that happened to him?" He whispered to himself. Kurt was engrossed in his thoughts that he hadn't noticed a two figures standing atop the rooftop of the Sanc Kingdom building until he felt a pair of eyes upon him. He looked up only to find no one in sight.

Ralph was beginning to think he was coming a paranoid person. Pulling his hood over his head he headed back into the forest where he would travel until he came upon a road where Chris was waiting for him in a jeep. The wind carried with it the air of the winter, the snow upon the ground and the hopes of everlasting peace. However, everlasting peace appeared be impossible.

[TBC]: I just figured out that I automatically changed the Gundam pilot's, Relena, and Hilde's age from 17 to 18!! I'm am sorry! Just to put things straight Heero, the other four pilots, Relena and Hilde are 17. Jin's 13, Mariemaia's 10, Dido's 17, Catherine and Dorothy are 19. Zechs, Noin, Sally, and Une are all 22 (along with Ralph and Chirst of Blind target) Margaret Cypher is 44. Sorry if that was a bit strange. Sakura123
