Gundam Wing
Episode 7 * Tragedy Strikes for Quatre*
7:30am
Tikki comes dancing out of his room with headphones that looked more like a bike helmet, but it covered his entire face down to his nose. Quatre exits his room dress in his usual brown suit attire. "Tikki?" he sighs half laughing. Tikki has his video player on again.
"Let get to me, I'm just creep down in Pumpkin Hill. I gatta find my lost piece." Tikki raps and dances in his direction as Rashid exits his room. "I know that it's here I sense it in my feet, that great emeralds power allows me to feel."
"Don't worry Quatre; I'll take care of this one."
"Rashid, I'm starting to think you're enjoying this."
"Tikki!" Rashid yells waking everyone in the mansion, but Tikki keeps going as not hearing his name.
"Careful Rashid, you might end up dancing with him like last time."
"I can't see a thing, but it's around somewhere. I gatta hold to hold my head I have no fear." Rashid snatches it of his head. "HEY!" "Oh hi, Rashid," Tikki looks up at him.
"How many times do I have to tell you? When you use your CD Video Player close your door."
"You actually want me to count. Ok there was that time I .," He thinks back, but Rashid stops the thinking process by slamming the video player on his head while twisting it.
"Just because you're the youngest doesn't mean I'll go easy on you."
"Thanks for the warning," pulls the CD Video Player off his head, "Next time, can you please not mess up my hair?" Rashid gives him another look, "Ok, ok I'm going." I wish he'd just tell people he likes her instead of just sending me all the time. He walks off slightly annoyed.
"I wish he'd behave more."
"You know he's just playing Rashid. I'm glad to see he's feels at home here."
"If you can call it that," Rashid sighs, "What he needs is a girl so he won't be so wild."
"Hello, Ms. Taichi." Tikki walks in with a dozen red roses and sets them down on the dresser as Ms. Taichi applies her makeup.
"Let me guess, Rashid." She continues what she is doing without looking up. Tikki looks at her through the mirror putting his hands behind his head. Hiyami finally realizes that Tikki hasn't left, yet. "What are you doing"?
"Nothing really, just thinking"
"Ok kid, I don't give tips." She puts down her eyeliner and looks him in the eye for a moment. He just shrugs and leaves the room. He has to be up to something. She watches him leave. It's time to go to work. She opens her drawer and takes out a gun and a few bottles. After stuffing them in her purse, she leaves the room to meets up with Rashid.
Tikki watches Rashid and Hiyami go into a limo and leave the premises. Won't she be surprised once she finds out there's no bullets in her gun. He turns on the heal of his shoe and satisfied walks back to Hiyami's room, but before he could even touch the doorknob Quatre turns the corner surprised to see Tikki at Hiyami's door. "Hell, Oooh, Mr. Winner, how are you this fine day."
"What are you doing?" He half laughs at him. "Don't tell me you still get lost after a month Tikki."
"I-know-where-the-kitchen-is." His eyes roll up in his head as though he was trying to read a map in his head. Tikki walks quickly past Quatre turns the corner plowing into a girl. "Oh, I'm so-" he stops his eyes growing wide in surprise as her black eyes mirror his. Her long coal black hair touches her thighs. The slit of her green and red rose print dress started halfway towards her knee.
"That's quite alright." Tikki looks at her up and down.
His left eye begins to twitch obviously showing his anger rise. "You are not. wearing that! You can't be wearing that; I am. going to pretend, I didn't see that."
"Do you not like my dress?" she looks at Tikki slightly confused.
"Oh, you know what you did, missy! It's on now."
"Sophia, do you know Tikki?" Quatre looks back and forth at both Tikki and Sophia.
"Yeah, you can say that. You can say we're like family." Tikki walks off fuming going to his room closing the door. He snatches his laptop off his dresser and leaves the room again.
Making sure no one saw him, Tikki started down the stares to the third floor, but as he starts down for the second floor jumps on the rail deciding it was faster that way as a small group of Maganacs started up the stares. "Hey Tikki, what's your hurry"?
"Can't talk now, gotta go!" Tikki slides to a stop in front of a surprised golden rod haired woman. "Hello Ms. Iria Winner; by any chance you'll let a guy borrow a computer." He jumps off the railing and bows to her.
Afmahd glances at his watch. I guessing Rashid and Hiyami won't be back until about one. He makes it to Quatre's office and knocks on the door. "Master Quatre, I'd like to have a word with you."
"Come on in Afmahd." He hesitates a moment before opening the door because he didn't recognize Quatre's voice right away. It wasn't his normal happy self and as he gets a good view of the office he understands why. The office looked like a tornado hit it. There was papers everywhere, knocked over cabinets with its contents spilled everywhere, and a frustrated Quatre who was plucking folders from under the broken glass.
"Master Quatre, are you ok?" as though on impulse he immediately starts to help.
"Yes, but I can't say the same for my office." He sighs as he stands up and surveys the mess. Quatre walks to his desk the lock to his desk was blown off. They must have used a silencer. Pulling it open, he checks it. He slams his palms on his desk and let his head hang. "They took everything."
"Well, maybe they didn't take it all, Master." Afmahd puts a hand on his shoulder.
"Maybe you're right." Quatre turns and dusts the glass off his chair then sits in it. He feels under his desk. "Ah." He pulls his hand out quickly as he cuts his hand on something sharp. Afmahd takes off his belt and wraps Quatre's hand with it as they both look under the desk. Afmahd pulls out a large peace of glass that seemed to have wedged itself into the tinny camera of the desk. Who ever did this studied the layout of my office well.
"Master we have to get your hand checked out."
"Ok" Quatre gets up and they exit the office. When they made it to the first floor, Quatre sends someone to clean up the mess.
"Quatre, what happened to your hand"? He turns to see Sophia as a car pulls up in the driveway.
"It's nothing really just cut it on some glass." Auda gets out of the driver's seat and opens the passenger's seat for Quatre.
"Mr. Winner, it's best to go and make sure you're hands ok." Sophia jumps in the back seat with Quatre as they drive to the hospital.
@_@ Shimi opens her eyes in surprise and sits up. Am I actually still alive? She stands up wobbly. Looking around she sees that everyone was either holding there head in pain, knocked out of their seat, or knocked out. Well, I thought I stopped the bomb from blowing up. Oops, I forgot to get those two guys I tied in the bathroom. oh well, they were trying to kill me anyway.
"Shimi!" Wufei looks at her angrily as he picks himself off the floor. Everyone begins to stare.
"What! Why is that when something blows up it's my fault!" He looks at her even more suspicious then before. Shimi jumps on the top of the chair as Wufei tries to catch her. Digging in her pockets, she begins to throw the contents inside at him and any one who came close to her which happened to be mostly food consisting of mostly little cups of jello, pudding cups, and little bags of peanuts.
"Hey, hey just settle down, Shimi." How did she able to fit all that in your pocket? Duo dodges a few cups of jello.
"We just want to talk to you since you seem to know something about that explosion that just happened. Just calm down, we are not here to hurt you." Sally stays put since that was the only way not to get something thrown her way.
Shimi digs in her pocket again only to realize she had nothing left to throw. Her eyes begin to water and she burst into tears. "Can't you at least attempt to trust me, Wufei?" Wufei's face stares at her unchanged as a response he jumps after her. Shimi dodges easily jumping from one chair to another like a cat. Wufei follows her as best as weightlessness would allow him.
"Hey wait up Wufei." Duo was a close second as he dodges a few dinner trays that flew his way.
Bathroom, bathroom, gotta find a bathroom. Bingo! Shimi picks the lock on the bathroom door after throwing a few more trays trough the curtains she closed to slow them down. She gets in and closes the door just as Duo and Wufei pass by. She waits a while. "Yes!" Shimi turns around to see Heero staring as though he was waiting. "No!"
*~* Hiyami and Rashid exit the restaurant together as the limo drives up, but instead of going to the limo, she grabs him by the arm into an ice cream store. She orders strawberry ice cream then turns to Rashid. "Don't you want some ice cream for dessert"?
"No thank you Hiyami. I'm full from the lunch we had." She opens her purse and begins to search for her money.
"Don't bother Hiyami. I'll pay for it."
"Oh, you don't have to do that for me, Rashid."
"It's nothing really, I insist." He takes his wallet out of his back pocket and turns to pay for the ice cream.
An evil smile forms on her face as she grips the trigger of the gun in her purse. She pulls the trigger, but nothing happens. Thinking she might have just put three bullets in the gun, she fires it repeatedly getting the same results. Why isn't it firing?
"Here you go Hiyami." Rashid hands her the ice cream as she closes her purse slightly frustrated as she takes the ice cream and forces a smile.
^~^ "Confidential files please enter password to enter." Tikki types in Osprey and gets in easily. That was too easy. "We have no information on Niko Nightwind except that his gender is unknown and Niko causes more trouble for Black Zoë a rival to Osprey."
"Great, the one thing I want I can't find. Black Zoë sounds interesting." Tikki thinks to himself as types in a few more things before something else interesting pops up. Curious he opens it.
"Fox considered lethal to the Osprey cause and is ordered to be eliminated on the spot or brought in to find the whereabouts of Sophia Dragon." Tikki connects his laptop to the computer and turns it on.
Wow, what a nice file they have on me. I wonder what would happen if. After opening a file called mischievous fox, he then e-mails it to the sight. Suddenly a black fox with big blue eyes pops up on the website. It gets an evil smile and the eyes change from blue to red and all information is quickly deleted in a flash. Oops, there goes all that info. He smiles unhooking his laptop and quickly exits the sight. Now, let us see all the fuss about this Black Zoë is all about.
Tikki sits back in his chair satisfied with his work as he hacks into the Preventers main computer. "You have one minute to input a password or your accesses will be terminated." All right a challenge. Tikki thinks for a moment then types something in. "Your password is incorrect please try again."
Having ten seconds left Tikki types in Pilot 05 and was about to press enter when Professor G pops up on the computer screen. "Fox, I have some information that might be-"
His eyes grow big. "Nooo! What are you doing get off!" he cut the screen in half, but it was too late cut off. Tikki got off so as not to be traced. "Whaat do you waaant!" he wines as he puts his chin on the keyboard covering his head with his hands.
"If you're going to be rude about it you can forget about it."
"I'm sorry, but I told you not to call me when I'm on the internet, remember."
"Quit sulking you'll get another chance. It's about Mariemaia's birthday party."
"What about it."
"They'll be expecting you there. You be careful; Osprey has entered infiltrated the police so be careful who you trust."
"Do come home and get some rest when you're done with Black Panther." Dr. S yells from behind Professor G.
"Ok, I promise, but only after the birthday party." The screen turns off and Tikki gets up from the computer grabbing his laptop. He stops in his tracks; he turns his head sharply catching a glimpse of someone at the door. Running to the door, he throws it open looking both ways down the halls. Ok someone was here and I'm going to find out who.
He turns the nearest corner ending in the waiting room and sees Quatre and Iria walking his way. "Tikki, why are you here?"
"Me, I was just looking for a birthday present for a kid I know, that's all. What happened to your hand Mr. Winner." He looks down at the blood stained cloth around his hand.
"I just had a small accident in my office, that's all. It seems that someone has stolen a bunch of important papers." Quatre looks a little upset as he mentions it and gives a sigh.
"Really, well if you need any help in trying to find the person I'm willing to help." Tikki lets them walk on before deciding to stay with him.
Now, I'm going to have to start from scratch with that new computer system I designed for the Terraforming Project. Quatre looks up at Tikki as he wraps an arm around his shoulder.
"Don't look like a sad puppy. I promise you you'll find them, again. Anyway if you keep worrying about it you'll drive yourself crazy." As they enter a room, Tikki watches Quatre's sister bandage his hand a while before snooping around the room. Taking two gloves, he blows them up.
"Tikki, what are you doing." Quatre watch him twist the ends of the gloves.
"Trying to make you feel better," Taking a glove in each hand, he places on each side of his head. "I'm Mickey Mouse. A greatly deformed Mickey Mouse, but Mickey Mouse none the less." Just as Quatre finally begins to lighten up, Auda runs into the room practically out of breath.
"Mater Quatre, there's been an accident at the construction sight."
Quatre looks at him surprised at the sudden horrible news. "What happened? Is anyone hurt?"
~~~~~Flash~~~~~
Abdul looks up at the building structure then looks at the guys behind him. "Ok, men we're going to start putting the glass in on the higher levels, today."
They climb the stares with the glass they had and separated going to the forth, fifth, and sixth floor. A few stayed below waiting for the shipment of extra glass since a there was a mix up in shipments. They began work with fitting the glass in the windows when one of the guys decided to take an early snack. Abdul glances over catching him in the act.
"Hey! What did I tell you about eating early?" he starts to walk toward him the floor boards begin to creak. "If Rashid was here-" he stops when he sees many tiny holes in the floor from the focus of the light from the glass that was being put in. "Hold it, no one move." With a heavy enough lode you'll fall straight though.
"What's the matter Abdul?" Just then, they hear the screeching of metal above them.
He takes out his walky-talky, "Aladdin, get off the sixth floor." He shakes it when it doesn't work then opens the back. "Who's job was it to check the batteries!" They looks at each other a moment.
"I did, but after I changed them Hiyami expected them in case I missed any."
"Hiyami checked-" Abdul was cut off with a loud slam then something big came crashing down from above. "Hey is everyone ok up there?"
"Yeah, Aladdin dropped the glass, but I have to tell you that glass new glass we got is heavier then the shipment we got yesterday."
"That's great. Hey! Is everyone ok on the forth floor!"
"Yeah, just a little shaken up."
"I want everyone out of this building. It's been tampered with and be careful." They all make it to the door and start down the stares, but Abdul makes sure everyone was out each room before going down himself. He soon caught up where the others were on the stares when there's a sequence of giant explosions on the eighth floor. The building begins to collapse.
~~~~~Flash~~~~~
"Abdul and a few others are hurt pretty badly. Some were lucky to get out with a few burses and scraps." Quatre gets up from where he was sitting. "So far no one's been killed that we know of."
"Quatre, please I'm not finished yet."
Quatre sits down uneasy. He looks to the floor horrified and slightly relived at the same time. Who's doing this and why? Do I have an enemy, somewhere? Quatre looks up again. "Where are they now?"
"There at Jefferson Hospital that isn't to far from here."
Tikki comes dancing out of his room with headphones that looked more like a bike helmet, but it covered his entire face down to his nose. Quatre exits his room dress in his usual brown suit attire. "Tikki?" he sighs half laughing. Tikki has his video player on again.
"Let get to me, I'm just creep down in Pumpkin Hill. I gatta find my lost piece." Tikki raps and dances in his direction as Rashid exits his room. "I know that it's here I sense it in my feet, that great emeralds power allows me to feel."
"Don't worry Quatre; I'll take care of this one."
"Rashid, I'm starting to think you're enjoying this."
"Tikki!" Rashid yells waking everyone in the mansion, but Tikki keeps going as not hearing his name.

He soon caught up where the others were on the stares when there's a sequence of giant explosions on the eighth floor. The building begins to collapse.

"Abdul and a few others are hurt pretty badly. Some were lucky to get out with a few burses and scraps." Quatre gets up from where he was sitting. "So far no one's been killed that we know of."
"Quatre, please I'm not finished yet."
Quatre sits down uneasy. He looks to the floor horrified and slightly relived at the same time. Who's doing this and why? Do I have an enemy, somewhere? Quatre looks up again. "Where are they now?"
"There at Jefferson Hospital that isn't to far from here."
