Disclaimer I don't own Gundam Wing or Sailor moon, but I do own Kayla.

A/n: I know your all wondering where I'm going with this, or more shocked at me that I've continued to update on any one story this much. But, I do have a plot and goal in mind and aim to reach it some how some way.

Chapter 13

She sighed as timed past fingering the I.V. drip in her arm. Her arm had long since gone numb from the pain, but yet she continued to ignore it touching it tracing it trying to find some way of removing it. Something didn't sit right with her and she had to wonder what exactly it was. But, before she could get the tape off, she blacked out from the drug used on her. Just before she passed out, she knew it was a trap, and Heero had led her right into it. How could she been so stupid to fall for such a trick?

When she came too she found herself in the same bed, but this time restrained without the sheets and thin metal under her back. Her sightless eyes wanted to focous on something, anything, but being blind this task proved to be next to impossible. :Had Heero forgotten about me? Or did he just lead me into a trap: ran through her mind as she tried to move. Again and again failing at the task at hand.

She closed her eyes waiting for death to claim her, all hope to save her forgotten kingdom already lost. Little did she know that plans were underway for her rescue.

Heero chewed his lip thoughtfully as he scaned over the computerized blue prints that he should have known like the back of his hand. It wasn't so much that he didn't know, but….he wanted to find an approach that No one would think of including himself. Every so often Rei and or Trowa would look over his shoulder getting a good idea of the layout themselves. Rei had only glanced at it a few times before she started working on setches of her own of ideas to break in without letting J know that anyone wanted in. Sighing she chewed the pincle she was using nearly in half before Trowa snapped her out of it. She along with Heero Sighed helplessly as their friend fell into the hands of evil. How could have they have been so stupid? If they only knew, but no use crying over the past when the past is oomed to repeat itself.

"Rei you need to relax, this not worth killing yourself over. I know Kayla is your best friend, and she needs you more then ever now...but onegai, don't let this kill you inside." Trowa begged.

"Hai, your right, but I can't help but feel somewhat responsible for what happened to her. I told her to wait alone, I had no idea that Heero would up and leave her lik this." Rei all but sobbed into Trowa.

"I shouldn't have, but I didn't think. Gomen Nasi Rei-san." Heero replied.

"its alright, I don't blame you. It was nothing that none of us could have predicted." Rei all but half smiled even though she still carried some guilt for the abandonment of her princess.

Not allowing his emotions to get the better of him, Heero continued to work feverishly not stopping for anything or anyone except Kayla. Kayla, had been coming to his mind for a while now, but he just couldn't seem to shake the feeling that there was a new emotion filtering through him, one he didn't seem to understand himself. His handsflew across the computer 's keyboard at an inhuman rate as he continuedhis never ending search.

:He loves her I just know it.: Rei thought to herself.

"Now here is what we have to do." Heero instructed as he layed out a printed version of what he had been working on moments later. Using his fingers he traced a path that he thought the others should take. Rei and Trowa listened and watched along nodding every so often at what he had to say pausing to add a comment or two of their own. Once plans were made, they set out to exacut them.

After taking what Heero thought was forever, the shuttle arrived on the colony where the base that held Kayla was located. Rei and Trowa worked as a team disarming, and taking out some of the outer devences while Heero's eyes darted from right to left searching wildly for where Kayla was being held. :If J has already started on her, then she's going to be where no one can hear her.: he thought knowing that that man wouldn't waste any time on getting started. :Why am I wasting my time like this: he had to ask him. :It must be for Rei.: he let himself think. Yet, in the back of his mind, Rei wasn't who was contently on his mind.

He sighed to himself as he continued to gaze about his surroundings. :She is in here I know it: he thought to himself as his mind locked on the exact location. Just like a lost cat, He soundlessly and effortlessly made his way through the compound while Rei and Trowa made quick work of the computer systems along the way blocking out all camara systems before they could be seen.

This turn of events alerted the good doctor that something was wrong. Leaving the poor exposed Kayla tied down and alone, he left to investigates. However, he had failed to taken into account about Heero's ways and knew the young man would no doubt be back for her. Yet, he doubted it due to the fact Heero wasn't on any direct order to return. But, the next and last thing he saw were a pair of eyes looking down at him as darkness and the floor claimed his body.

As Rei locked the doctor in a closet, Heero entered the room that held Kayla. He gasped at the sight before him. Her arms and legs had been chained painfully down Blood leaking from the restraints. Tape and IB drips lined her arm as color slowly drained from her skin. Her eyes remained closed as if she wanted to block out some sort of pain. "Kayla, are you ok?" Heero asked upon seeing the distressed girl on the cold steel table.

She tried to nod at him, but found this task impossible. Dr. J had successfully chained her neck firmly into place to prevent her from looking up or turning her head. Her legs spread as wide as they could go, cool air blowing against her expposed skin.

Not needing to hear her reply, Heero made quick work of her restraints pealing them away one by one like ripping through tissue paper. Sweat trickled down Kayla's face as he continued his work the thin metal pealing away from her overly raw skin. Carefully, He removed the IV drip while Rei and Trowa started to make quick work of the doctor's computer system while providing light for Heero to work. "Come on Kayla please answer me." Heero found himself begging.

"Heero-kun?" Kayla weekly whispered.

"Hai Kayla-hime." Heero responded allowing his voice to show some hint of emotion indicating he cared weather or not the girl lived to see the rest of her life.

She bit her lip as if in extream pain crimson leaking from her mouth where she had created a sore adding to the large amount spred over her body already. "I thought I told you not to speak to me so formally." she laughed but the effort only made her wince in pain.

"Iie Princes you told me to call you either Kayla-hime, Kayla or Hime-sama." Heero argued his tone warning her not to try and talk to much.

"So I ..." she started to say but a fit of coughing had quickly stopped that from happening.

"You really shouldn't try to talk just now. Heero soothed as he lifted her carefully up and just as gracefully and soundlessly as he entered left making sure Kayla felt safe and succored in his embrace.

Rei gasped when heero emerged from the compound with Kayla in his arms. Heero himself had only suffered minor cuts and scrapes nothing he hadn't had before, but Kayla sure looked a lot worse off. Her naturally tan complementation had faded and given way to an extrema painless the likes none of the of them could have imanagened was possible. Open wounds and circles of raw flesh marred her normally flawless skin. Yet, the pained expression that Rei had come to know so well appeared to be super glued to her face.

"First we need to get out of here then split up. Once we are safe, Rei you and Trowa cover our tracks, while I'll take Kayla to a safe location and await your return while cleaning her up and bringing some life back into her. " Heero instructed as he sprinted for the shuttle they had previously high jacked to get as far away from the colony cluster that had held the young princess hostage.

"Gun it.." Heero ordered once everyone was safe inside.

Trowa nodded while Rei helped as best as she could. Once out in space, Heero looked over Kayla trying to get as much of the drugs J had placed in her out, but couldn't think of how to do it. :Please let her be ok: he thought.

"I think she will be fine." Rei reassured although in the back of Rei's mind she doubted it would go well.

His mind raced as he tried every method he could think of, but Kayla had fainted a long time ago and didn't appear to be waking any time soon.

"You know, my friend Ami used to be a doctor, maybe she can give you some suggestions." Rei offered when she noticed the worried look in Trowa's eyes that said, "I've never seen him quite like this."

"He loves her doesn't he?"" Rei commented more to herself then anyone else. She knew love when she saw it, and in fact her own heart ached for such a love, but at the same time she felt that her love was so out of reach. Trowa glanced over at her and gave a week smile, and with that simple smile Rei felt as if she were on clod nine. "I'll take over Kayla's care." Rei offered. "If your going to do any good for her or for the rest of us, your going to need a little rest yourself." Rei told heero who grunded in reply.

"Iie, I would rather take care of her." Heero protested.

"If I know Kayla-chan she would kill you if she knew you killed yourself and ran yourself into the ground because of her." Rei argued firmly back wondering if Trowa felt the same way about her, or any way about her.

Heero grunted as Rei took over, but her mind couldn't focus on her friend, but rather Trowa and weather or not he hated her. After all she had scared him out of his wits, but then again how could she have known. :I'm so stupid I should have felt him, but I didn't: she mentally slapped herself. She tried to keep her mind on anything other then Trowa, but nothing worked. Sighing she watched over her friend, while Heero helped Trowa to navigate since he knew where he wanted them to go.

Once on the ground, the two couples split up for parts unknown in order to cover their tracks, and get Kayla properly taken care of.
