Prologue
The roars were never ending. They echoed through out the mass deserts. They swam with the winds carrying the sounds of a war cry. The images weren't so clear, but they were vivid enough to see.
There was a wild desert storm. Water began to wrestle madly against the tides. The waters were black instead of blue. Lights in the sky were flashing like lightning. Clouds began to build with the golden sky, that later......it was blue. War cries began to grow louder.
The sounds of pain, shrieked through out the air. The smell of blood began to arouse. The gushing sounds of death were heard, along with the screams. There were more war cries.....they didn't' sound normal. There was a sound of struggle. A figure stood against a tall figure. The tall figure crushed the smaller form. Blood ran everywhere, and the odor of corpses aroused in the air.
Metal tore against metal, as skin began to be torn. The sound of death mixed within the world. It sounded like war. A big war; that had never ending cries. But why.....why.....what was going on?
The darkness stood, as something so clear stood there watching. Its eyes glared into a phosphorescent glow, as it was revealed..........now....there was a human scream.
Relena gasped, as she jumped up in her bed. Sweat just covered her entire body. She shook. In fact she shook violently. She pressed her palm against her forehead trying to ease herself from the sudden fright.
'Wow,' she thought. She inhaled for some oxygen. For odd reason, she couldn't get enough air. Relena got up. She needed to walk around. Her feet met the carpet, as she started to walk around a little. She jumped when lightning clashed. Relena held onto her chest.
Since when was there a storm? Relena shook her head. She really needed to lighten up.
"Okay, enough," she whispered. Relena banged her chest to ease her thumping heart from pounding so hard in her chest. She seriously couldn't get enough air. It was strange. She coughed. Her entire esophagus felt dry. 'Okay now I really need some air, and some water,' she thought. She marched right out the door.The kitchen was seriously cold!
Relena nearly froze her ass off. She covered herself with her arms. 'Didn't anyone have any thought of turning the heater on?' she thought. She walked towards the cabinet and brought out a glass. Pacing towards the refrigerator, she pressed the button for ice, and then went for the water. She drank up. It was funny. She didn't realize that she was that thirsty. The next moment she knew the glass was empty. Now she needed more. Before she was going to press the button again, she suddenly hears a funny noise. Relena froze. She listened hard. She heard muffled screams.
Relena blinked. Her one ear suddenly popped. "Ouch!" she exclaimed silently. "Damn that hurt," she cursed as she rubbed her ear to ease the pain. Relena puts the glass down on the counter, and followed where the sounds. The screams only grew louder, when she reached a certain hallway, where her Gundam friends would sleep around. These were their quarters. They came to be Relena's home as members of the Cinq Kingdom's federal system. In other words, the elite team of soldiers, and higher security officers. They were also Relena's body guards.
Relena moved passed Trowa's room, then Quatre's. She silently went pass Wufei's room. She was sure, he was still awake. The guy is a night owl. He never sleeps at night. He always thinks someone will attack during the nightly hours. As for the day, he sleeps. Relena moved passed Duo's room. She heard video games. She rolls her eyes. 'Is Duo still busy with that damn Resident Evil game? When will it end?' she thought. She then heard another scream. And it rang her ears. She closed her ears since it hurt so much. 'How can they not hear that?' she thought. Relena then noticed where the screams were coming from. Heero's room.....
Relena paused. 'Why would there be screams......' Relena paused. There was a strange odor reaching her nose. Relena sniffed. She didn't' like the smell, and for some odd reason she knew that smell. Lust filled the entire area. 'What on this Earth......?' Relena thought. Then she thought she heard someone groaning Heero's name. She then hears a familiar tone just moaning....
Relena's eye brow twitched. A look of disgust came upon her face. Her fingers suddenly began to jerk, and crack. Her head......her head was hurting. Relena grasped onto her pajamas. She was trying to control herself. But her body kept going out of some serious control. What's happening?
Relena felt all her emotions wash over, as if there was a huge storm. Her heart raced madly. 'He's.....some....person.....oh god I need to get.....' she thought. Right now she really needed to heave. She raced quickly pass the hall way.
Wufei jumped out of his room as well as Duo. Both didn't see anything. Wufei saw Duo.
"Did you hear something?" Wufei said.
"Yeah....did you hear anything?"
"Why do you think I'm out here, dummy?" Wufei said.
"Hey I'm no dummy—"
"Never mind, come on, let's find out who was around the hall way," Wufei said. He suddenly stopped. Duo walked up to him, and noticed a strange look on his face.
"What's the matter?"
"You know I can hear well, in fact to well. My senses could be fooling me though. I just have to ask----- is Heero pleasing himself with someone?" Wufei said. Duo blinked. 'Well yeah sure pleasing, but it's more like fucking man,' Duo thought. He sighed and crossed his arms.
"Yeah, some girl he met on base..... I think her name is Lisa, I don't' know. They got something in common; I think it's the guns. Heero's has been in and out the door just to see her."
Wufei got the looks of disgust just by hearing the sounds. He shivered.
"How long...have they?"
"For the last four or five hours, why do you think I was playing with my video games?" Duo said aloud.
"Shh, do you want everyone to hear you?"
"Well exxxxcuuuuse me," Duo retorted. Wufei suddenly another weird look on his face. "What is it now?"
"Four or five?" Wufei said sounding sour. Duo nodded, and raised his right hand.
"I swear on a bible pal," Duo said. Wufei nearly grossed out. But sighed. He just got right off the subject.
"Now come on I think who ever was here, came this way," Wufei said. Duo followed him down the hall.
"I just hope Princess doesn't find out," Duo said.
"What was that?" Wufei asked.
"Oh come on, Wufei, you know how Relena feels about Heero."
"I'm aware of their relationship. And I think what Heero is doing with some woman in his room is very disgraceful. He might as well tell her how he feels than do whatever with other women. To me that's betrayal."
"Well they're not even going out. But you know Heero, he feels for Relena....alot in fact," Duo said.
"Yes I know, Heero always has that look whenever he starts thinking about her. He doesn't even know he's doing it. Perfect soldier.....he only wants a perfect everything. However getting with some whore, is very de-grading woudln't you agree?" Wufei asked.
Duo nods.
"Man, do you think Princess might have a breakdown?" Duo asked.
"Well I don't know her well in that area, but my gut tells me that she may go through a traumatic period. Just how long was Heero dating this woman?"
"Well from Heero not staying in his office, and staying in his bedroom or he's either at some cheap motel....I'd say he's been dating her for the past eight months now."
Wufei snorted in disgust. "And he feels nothing for her?" Wufei said.
"Nope," Duo said.
"Then why..."
Duo stopped. Wufei halted the moment he stopped.
"What's up with you?" Wufei said.
"Don't tell me you didn't hear someone puking?" Duo said eyeing him.
"Where....who's vomiting?" Wufei said raising a brow.
"I know where, but I don't' know who, now come on, the nearest bathroom is behind the kitchen," Duo said. "And byt he way I'm hungry."
"It's five O' clock, help yourself," Wufei said. Duo snickered.
Duo and Wufei towards the bathroom. The door was closed. As they neared the door they heard sounds; there was indeed someone heaving in there. Duo listened closely and heard someone sobbing. The way the person sobbed was familiar. Duo leaned away from the door. He slowly turned his gaze to Wufei, when he realized who was in the bathroom. Wufei stared as his eyes expanded. Okay, he got the picture.
"Oooooh boy," Wufei said whispering.
"Heero's in trouble," Duo said walking away. Wufei followed, and followed quickly.
Relena continued to vomit into the toilet. She coughed very hard, while the bitter liquid poured from her mouth. She never had been so disgusted in her life. How can this be? Why is this happening? Relena felt all the memories she had of Heero come swimming into her head. All the good memories, and all the bad---they just shattered like glass. The only memory she ever had was being near his door, hearing him groan, while some bitch fucked him over and over.
Relena felt sadness invade her like a plague. She needed to heave again, and as she did, she felt her entire chest burst with pain. She choked, when something seriously warm exits her mouth. Relena looked in the opening of the toilet, and saw red. Relena pulled away, and pressed her hand against her mouth. Blood was coming out of her mouth. She coughed again, and more just came out.
'OH God," Relena muttered. Her eyes suddenly burned. She closed them to make the pain go away. Everything in her body was breaking down. But most of it wasn't from the things she's been hearing; her body was really breaking down.
The next moment she knew a massive headache just enters her head, and now she's in some serious pain. Relena got up. Her body was really unstable at the moment. 'Wow!' she thought. Her legs were so weak and jerking. She just hoped to God that she could make it to her bed room. 'Make it to my bedroom and never come out again.'
Relena flushed the toilet. She saw the red swirl go slowly down. Relena looked away since the whirling of water was making her dizzy. Slowly, she closed the light, and made her way out.
Her sight seemed a bit off. Everything turned into a sense of vertigo. Relena needed the wall for some support. 'Wow what a headache,' She thought.
She headed towards the stairs, but something suddenly rang her ears. It was sort of loud to her. She snapped her head around and she thought she saw Duo and Wufei staring at her. She looked harder as her sight became much clearer; she noticed that it was them. They looked alarmed. Relena suddenly felt the urge to glare. She didn't want to. But some voice kept saying 'not a good day to be nice, don't you think..... Relena?'
"Hey, Lena, you okay?" Duo asked chuckling a bit.
There was no answer coming pass her lips. Relena had a strange glint in her eyes. Duo noticed it. She was glaring hard at him. It was a real scary. Duo thought she was Heero with that glare. But this was different. That look; something about that look, made her seem......unpredictable. Duo gulped. He hated the feeling he has right about now. He only got bad vibes when he's facing an enemy or something that doesn't or in order. That feeling where you have to be very afraid.
Relena turns around and made her way up the stairs. She walked up silently not speaking a word to any of them. Duo slowly turned to Wufei.
"She knows," Duo said.
"I wouldn't be surprised if Quatre or Trowa gave Heero an ass whooping, but further more the next morning I'm going to just lay some knuckle sandwiches for breakfast," Wufei said walking away.
"Couldn't agree more," Duo said.
Relena walked towards her bathroom. She turned on the light. She stared at herself. Blood still came down her lower lip. She was happy Duo and Wufei didn't notice that she was bleeding. But that started to bother her. Why couldn't she have the gall to tell them that she was hurt? Something in her just......it was instinct. She just didn't feel. All of her emotions and instincts.....changed from that very moment. Relena narrowed her eyes. Her fingers twitched when she felt her bones crack. Her grabbed her hand.
'I feel like shit,' She thought.
Morning: Day 1
Heero paced his way towards the security office. He knew he was going to smell like woman's perfume almost all day. He knew that for a fact, since he and Lisa had quite a night yesterday. Heero paused to think just how long he had been sleeping around with her. He frowned. He noticed for a little too long. He didn't know why he was doing it. But his instincts continued to pressure him. He needed release from that one woman. He felt nothing for her.
Most of his emotions are unleashed when he's around Relena.
'Relena......'he thought. What would she think if she suddenly found out what he was doing?He knew they had nothing going on, but.....some part of him thinks so. He knew there was something going on with the both of them. They felt for each other....strangely, but they had something.
So why.....why would he do this?
'Yui, since when do you think with your dick instead of your head?' Heero thought. He sighed. 'Relena, just don't find out about this,' he thought. 'Don't find out.' He'd know her reaction. He knew too well.
-Kitchen
"Hey dude," Duo said.
Heero didn't say anything. He didn't have the need to do so.
"Another night with that Lisa woman.....boy you were two making some noise Heero." Duo said. Heero slammed Duo's arm. Duo began choked feeling pain. That's going to leave a bruise.
"Don't speak loudly about it, Maxwell!" Heero snapped. Duo glared hard at him, and punched him back. Heero wasn't too surprised by Duo's sudden blow in the arm.
"Well excuse me, mister. I'm not the one who's worried about making a damn mistake."
"And what's that suppose to mean?" Heero said.
"Well just so you know Heero, whenever you and that Lisa start things in bed, you begin to worry about one person coming right through your bedroom door. And I won't give any names, since you all ready know," Duo said. Heero narrowed his eyes, into a deadly glare.
"Duo...." Heero hissed.
"And I for one would know so."
"And how is that?"
"I really wouldn't be surprised if Relena fucked your face up," Duo said. Heero spun around. He grabbed Duo by the braid, and hurled him to stare at him.
"What did you just say?" Heero demanded.
"Dude," Duo said softly. "You know exactly what I'm saying." Heero's serious look suddenly turned into a look of disgust and shock. He never panicked in his life. But right about now-- Heero could make an acceptation.
"She didn't......."
"Yeah," Duo said. Heero stared at Duo with some serious shock. 'Oh no,' Heero thought. 'Oh no, this isn't happening. Fuck, no, this isn't happening,' Heero thought.
"When did she find out?"
"Last night; she was really sick, and she really needed to heave. When she saw me and Wufei man......phew.....she had the looks of kill....or something like that." Heero growled. He really needed to slam on something. But then he thought about the last part of Duo's sentence.
"What do you mean'something like that?'" Heero asked.
"It's to complicated explain that man. Something about Relena didn't really seem like......like you know....... Relena. When she was walking up those stairs. I was hoping to talk about it with her; she just turned around ignoring me and Wufei. It was almost like we didn't even exist to her from that moment. Those eyes man.....they weren't right."
"You're not making sense," Heero said.
"Well I did tell you that it was complicated to explain. It's not a walk in the park when you get bad instincts about some people."
"There's nothing bad with Relena. She's just upset."
"Upset.....oh please, Heero. It's no where close to upset....she's pissed. And I mean it when she sees you I think she's going to give you more than the evil eye....I think she's add some death in the mix," Duo said.
"How would you know? You hardly know her."
"I've been living for the past two years, and you're telling me I don't know her?" Duo said.
"I heard someone was a bad person, yesterday night. You really should upgrade the sound proof to that damn room of yours," Wufei said. His arms were crossed. Whenever he was in that position he was ready to knock the shit out of someone. Heero glared at him. He knew that stance. He leaned against the kitchen counter, and put his hands in his pocket.
"So you heard as well," Heero said.
"Yes I have. Right after Relena ran right through the hall way, and made her way to the bathroom just to vomit."
Heero winced at that.
"Her sickness doesn't worry me so much, but the illness to have her weeping over you is what worries me. I hope you see what the hell you have done. I wouldn't be surprised if she doesn't talk to her again." Wufei said.
Heero didn't' say anything as the Chinese man walked out. Heero turned around and saw Quatre and Trowa standing there. Quatre had a glare on his face. Trowa seemed to look expressionless. But he knew that somewhere deep in the depths of his green eyes, he was shaking his head over and over.
Pagan gave Relena another glass of water. She's been asking for more than one glass today. It was strange. Relena seemed to be very thirsty. Her hunger was bothering her, but she when she requested food, she ends up not wanting to eat it. Pagan could tell just how she looked. He stared at her a little more. She seemed rather pale. He thought about something.........'no it can't be,' he thought.
"Could I get you some breakfast, Miss Relena?" Pagan asked.
"No, Pagan. I don't want to eat anything. But please get another glass of water, I'm very thirsty." Relena said.
"Is something wrong? You seemed awfully tired?"
"It's nothing, Pagan," Relena muttered. Something in her voice rumbled. Pagan stared. He thought again. 'It can't be. No, I must be seeing things. Well the doctor should be of some help. Yes.....just to be sure,' he thought. He bowed to her and began to make his way towards the kitchen down stairs.
Relena felt like she was going to shut down. But from what, why is she like breaking down like this? This couldn't have been all about Heero....and that tramp he's been fooling around with. Relena glared hard. She made a low growl. It didn't seem like the original she would make. It was deep and rather.....daunting. Relena scared herself and stopped. Suddenly her back cracks. She gasped. That hurt!!! She sat up, and held her spine.
"Oh God, I've been feeling like this since last night," Relena muttered. She sighed. "I guess I have to go check up with the doctor," She said. She got up and went to her wardrobe, where she had found a bunch of her clothes. She seemed to grow rather picky. She threw a simple blue shirt, and a pair of jeans, which Duo had given her last Christmas. 'Him and jeans; if he weren't a Gundam pilot I think he'd be the next Calvin Klein,' she thought.
Her sight went into a blur. Relena leaned against the wall to get some balance. 'Wow,' she thought. Her sight came back the next moment. 'I really need to go to the doctor,' she thought.
"Pagan," Relena called. Relena was dressed in a blue t-shirt, with jeans. She searched for Pagan whom was just coming out the kitchen. 'He was cleaning the dishes again,' Relena thought. Pagan held her glass of water. Relena smiled warmly. "Thank you, Pagan," Relena said.
"Did you need anything else," Pagan asked.
"Yes, as a matter of fact. Tell Sally Po that I might not make it to that auction today."
"Yes, Miss Relena. Is something wrong?"
"Oh nothing really, Pagan," Relena said. That was weird. She thought about what she just said. She would tell Pagan if something was wrong. Why the devil would she not say anything what was wrong with her?
"Are you going somewhere?" Pagan asked.
"Yes I'm just going out to the park. I need some fresh air, that's not in the palace."
"Yes, Miss Relena," Pagan said. Relena began to drink her tall glass of water. It was gone at least a minute. Pagan observed carefully.
"Well I'm off," Relena said putting the glass in the dish washer. She paced off, quickly. They way she walked looked rather.....different. Pagan began to panic. 'Oh God, can it be? But how.....it isn't possible.....but wait....oh no! Now where on Earth did I put that number,' he thought as he ran towards the upstairs.
Relena sat in the doctor's office for a while. She wondered what was taking the doctor so long. Relena kept her patience however. She had to. Before she knew it the Dr. Smith came right in.
"Hello, Ms. Peacecraft, so nice to see you again. It's been long since you were here," Dr. Smith said.
"Yes it seems so," Relena said.
"Okay let's see, what's going on here," the doctor said as she sat down at her desk. "The nurses say that you have been vomiting and have been rather dizzy."
"Yes," Relena said.
"Well does this usually happen?"
"No," Relena said.
"Well have you been with someone by any chance?" The doctor asked. Relena blinked. That was a weird question. Relena raised her brow sharply.
"No," Relena said.
"Oh is that right? I had one of the nurses look into your blood to see if you're throwing up because you're probably pregnant."
"I never slept with anyone," Relena said in a frightening tone that made the doctor jump.
"Oh," Dr. Smith said. "Were you going through a lot of stress by any chance? I can imagine what the office is like?"
"Well yes, that and something else....is it all stress related?"
"Well from you vomiting, and going through some headaches, its very stress related."
"OH," Relena said.
"The best thing for you is to get some rest, and settle down for a while. Get some sleep, and relax."
"Yes I will. But at night I've been having trouble sleeping."
"You can't get to sleep?"
"No...it's just. I've been getting nightmares lately," Relena said.
"Oh really is that it? Well there's not really a cure to nightmares but I have a solution. Write down what you see in your dreams, and make them more into a happy image. Do this many times and you'll forget to even have those nightmares," Dr. Smith said.
"I think I'll do that. Thank you," Relena said.
What is going on with Relena?
Why is Pagan all worried?
