Chapter 8-Offical Declaration!
Quatre's POV
It had been 5 hours since they found out that I was still alive and under their very noses
too. Trowa didn't seem to mind much he just wished I had took him with him. I smiled at
that; he really does care, in an emotionless kind of way. What he told me repeated over
and over in my head,
"Next time you decide to run away; bring me with you" This was a different side or
Trowa-san; the side he would only show to me. I still stood there as he walked away
before turning around and going back to the apartment one last time. I would gather up
my belongings, say goodbye to Matt, and then lastly: go home.
When I got there I saw Matt was not there. Maybe he had a few things to do before he
came back. I took those familiar steps into the room I once called my own. It seemed like
so long ago Takeru Takaishi died. I took the belongings I needed which consisted of: My
D-3, D-Terminal, some pictures of all the destined together, my hat to remind me of the
adventures we had, and a Model of Patamon that Hikari gave me.
I walked back to the family room where we spent so many nights just flopping in front of
the television eating well T.V. dinners. I looked at the couch ready to sit down and take a
look at the news but I noticed Matt still didn't throw away the dinner trays we were
eating on last night.
After the dinner trays were thrown away I sat down. Then I turned up the volume so I
could actually hear what the guy was saying. By now they had gotten a new news guy
since they lost the old one in that accident.
"It's Official! The colonies have lost it! I repeat the colonies have lost it. This is Fujiwara
Shin reporting live where they just issued an official declaration for war. I repeat an
official declaration for war. Vice Foreign Minister Darlian, would you care to say a few
words?"
"Yes I believe I would. We are doing all we can to find out their reasoning for this war
and once we find out why the colonies are doing this; we will work harder to come up
with a peaceful solution. There is no need for panic." With that Relena in her tacky pink
outfit walked off away from the Reporter.
"Well there you have it. Vice Foreign Minister Darlian states that everything will be fine;
no need to panic folks." With that the T.V. was turned off and then an explosion
followed.
"Matt I'm really sorry but I got to go protect Japan." I ran out the door leaving a stunned
Matt to draw his own conclusions.
Duo's POV
Chikushou! I knew we should have contacted them sooner. By now all of the pilots
should have heard of the news. I ran out of the school and since I was the only pilot there;
started heading towards the forest where I hid my gundam last time.
By now everyone was inside some building; praying for their lives. Don't they realize?
Hiding won't save them at all. They colonies have gundams so they would be crushed in
a millisecond. While I was running I saw a blond kid running the same way I was.
"Kid! Get inside; it's to dangerous out here!" I stopped since the boy I was yelling at
slowed down. But what really baffled me was that he was yelling. I noticed he crossed
the street and it took only a second to realize who this boy really was.
"Let's go." He said calming down and started running toward the forest. Is it possible
Quatre hid his there too? Well only one way to find out. I followed him into the forest
before we went our separate ways in order for me to reach death scythe.
I quickly jumped into my machine and headed toward the battle; knowing Quatre would
catch up and come as soon as he reached Sandrock. There they are! The Leo's seemed to
pick me up on their radar as they stopped their assault on Shibuya and came after me.
The Leo's attacked first gaining the upper hand for a small second. I brought out my
thermal scythe and began attacking; the scythe destroying everything in its path including
a few of the Leo's. Where did they all go? Let's see there were 20 suits and I just
destroyed 5 of them. So there are 15 suits left; I turned my mobile suit around and noticed
they decided to gang up on Quatre!
I flew my gundam toward the battle; hoping to aid Quatre. But as soon as I got there one
of the Leo's guns damaged Quatre's sandrock.
"Quatre you okay!" I yelled though the telecom. Anger boiled through me when he
didn't reply. I brought up my scythe and dove in toward the battle destroying the rest in
one shot.
Quatre's POV
Kuso…They hurt Sandrock! I groaned in pain. Blood was flowing freely through my
shoulder. I also felt a pain in my leg. It must be broked I thought wearily. When I heard
Duo yell my name; I tried to reply, but I just couldn't. I think it's because I banged my
neck on a piece of metal sticking out.
I heard a 3 more gundam's land…so Wufei, Heero and Trowa must have arrived. I heard
muttering; they were talking urgently before Sandrocks cockpit was opening. I couldn't
keep my eyes opened any longer as black dots clouded my vision. Then all I saw was
darkness.
Duo's POV
I sighed, knowing I'd have to be the one to tell Quatre's Family about what happened and
that he's a soldier. Though his brother knows; his parents do not. Why do I get stuck
doing the hard things! I knocked on the apartment door having been here once before.
A woman opened the door. This must be Quatre's mother; she was staring impatiently at
me so I decided to speak before she slammed the door in my face.
"Ms. Takaishi? I'm Duo Maxwell; a friend or Qu-Takeru and I have a few things I need
to talk to you about." She looked at me obviously not believing me but before she could
shut the door a familiar voice saved the day.
"Duo? Where's TK?" Matt said out loud; after that I was let in and sat down. Mr. Ishida
came and sat down too. Apparently this was the day they were all going to spend together
but the war ruined it.
"I'm not sure where to begin…" I started and took a deep breath, "Takeru should be fine;
however he was injured in a mobile suit battle." Before his Okaa-san could begin to yell
and deny this was impossible. I told then about his life in the war; by the time I finished
my tale Matt was shocked after hearing it again. The mother fainted and Mr. Ishida had
an unreadable expression on his face.
As I was about to leave to go check on the said boy; Matt timidly spoke up, "Can you tell
us his condition?" Ooh boy I was hoping I wouldn't have to answer that one. But luck is
never on Shinigami's side.
"As far as we know he has a broken leg in 2 places and he opened an old scar in his
shoulder. He's just unconscious but should be alright-" This is when the chaos started;
apparently Ms. Takaishi chose this time to wake up.
"YOU'RE LYING MY SON IS NOT RELATED TO THE WINNERS AND HE MOST
CERTAINLY DOES NOT PILOT MOBILE SUITS." As she was about to hit me and
kick me out; Matt once again chose to save the day,
"Okaa-san? Duo is not lying he's-" Matt was cut off when his mother started ranting
again,
"DON'T YOU DARE SIDE WITH HIM TOO MATT! HE COULD BE LYING; HOW
WOULD YOU KNOW ANYWAY!" I winced; boy, am I going to have a headache
tonight.
"Takeru told me Mom. The stories match up; I believe Duo and if you don't that's too
bad. Now I'm going to visit Otouto-san." Matt walked out the door and as I was about to
be blocked off again Mr. Ishida held his ex-wife back. I gave a thankful smile and ran out
the door; leaving Mr. Ishida to counsel Ms. Takaishi.
Quatre…get better soon.
Talon: All done! Now Fire can't be mad at me. She threatned me with her Mallet
Akemi: Thank god I would probably be forced to take the blow.
Talon: yeah poor Akemi-sama
Akemi: R&R
