Rouge Angel
By Chikara-yuy
Okay I loved writing the last chapter I couldn't stop laughing.
Anyway, on with the story I guess!
Also I do not own gundam wing!
-
Duo's eyes fluttered open. -What a strange dream-
Then he looked up to se blue eyes staring down at him big blue eyes.
"GAHHHH! The angels have come to take me away!"
The eyes widened and the owner fell over out of Duo's vision. That was when Duo realized he was on the couch. He looked down to see Quatre gripping at his chest and gasping.
He then looked around Kari was reading a book and seemed to have changed again already, Trowa was in a corner looking out the window and Heero was typing on his computer. Duo guessed Wufei was training.
Kari looked over to him and then said something that startled him. "Duo where did this come from?" she held up a silver cross much like the one around her neck but no delicate carvings like her own.
Duo sat up and took the cross from her hand. She glanced at him and the others turned their heads to him.
"It belonged to the father of the church I had stayed at. I was given it after he died."
That much was true. Duo remembered Lady Maria giving it to him as she lay dying. Telling him to keep walking in the path of light.
Kari nodded excepting his answer. Quatre after regaining his breath said, "I think we should all go to sleep. It's been a long day."
They all headed up the stairs one after the other and went into their different rooms. Kari dressed for bed. She put on a black sports bra with silver feathers on it, and black pajama pants with the same feathers.
Once she crawled into the bed, she fell asleep.
She was again caught in the flames. Grabbing a nearby chair using her strength that had only come out of her fear she busted the window and climbed out. Again, the figure was there.
"ARI! NO, NO, NO! DON'T YOU BE GONE TOO! ARI"
Kari awoke trembling, and covered in sweat. She hadn't screamed this time. She had gotten used to this dream now. Was it a memory?
Kari crawled out of the bed and went to the window opening it she looked out at the full moon. She looked to her right to see a screen with roses growing on it grasping the wood she pulled herself out of the window and climbed. She liked to be up high, so she would go to the roof.
Once Kari reached the roof she settled on a spot that was paticulary flat and stared at the moon. Where had she gotten her cross? She pulled it out and stared at it. The chain lay across her palm, glowing in the moonlight. For all she knew she could have gotten it from K. but then what about that dream? Was it a memory? And if it was why was it coming back now?
Kari shivered then turned as she heard a noise from behind her. Heero was there and stepped up behind her and draped a blanket over her shoulders. She stared at him.
"You won't be any good sick." He grunted.
Kari nodded and turned back to the moon. Not noticing or not caring that Heero had sat down beside her.
-Why am I acting like this? And why am I out here- (an: and if you don't know who thought that don't mind me saying so but your hopeless.)
Kari and Heero sat out there for a while and Heero intrigued by her necklace stared at again. He then remembered what it said. 'Look over the enchanted seas, to find serenity in your dreams.'
"Bad dream" he questioned.
Kari shrugged. "Bad dream or bad memory? That is what I want to figure out."
She shivered again and Heero spoke quietly. "Duo has something planned tomorrow I suggest you get sleep."
"Ugh and just what might that be" she questioned.
"Hn."
(Transtlation: don't know but he said it's going to be FUN. I don't know if you know it yet but that means danger to us.)
Kari sighed "Guess so." She then got up and followed him to the stairs that had led him up here to her.
On the way she tripped over a loose shilling and fell into him. Heero and Kari both went tumbling, but he managed to catch her, and pull her back up. Kari looked up at him, and for a moment, sea green connected with Prussian blue.
They turned from one and other and headed back inside to their own rooms. Once in his own Heero sat on his bed. - What is wrong with me- he thought to himself.
Kari looked down the hall as Heero's door closed and went into her own room closing her door. She walked over to her bed and realized that she still had Heero's blanket.
She smiled and put on her bed and got into it curling up beneath the covers in a kitten-ish way.
Once asleep she slept soundly without dreams.
The next day Duo was sneaking around the house. He was going to have a little bit of fun today. He waited outside one door and until he heard the telltale click of the bathroom door shutting. He then sneaked into the room and stole all of the person's clean clothes. And then snuck back to his room chuckling. This will show her to threaten Shiningami! He thought.
Kari stretched after she got out of the bathroom. She then went to the dresser which contained the little clothes that she had kept at her apartment. "Where the hell are all my clothes?"
She asked aloud. She dug into the lower drawers and found a lot of blue jeans and green sleeveless shirts. She frowned but was at least glad some of her things had been left. Changing she left her room in search of who had stolen her clothes. In the process of elimination she decided it had to be Duo. She had thought of that when she first noticed her clothes gone.
Kari found Duo's door quite easy I mean who else would have a door that read 'Shiningaimi lives here!'?
Kari was about to knock when she heard a sound on the stairs. Turning she saw Duo and she narrowed her eyes at him.
Duo's eyes widened and letting a scream for help he threw the bowl in his hands into the air and took off running down the hall. The bowl went up and came down with a plop on Kari's head before she could move. Kari picked the bowl off her head ice cream dripping off her face. Quatre who had opened his door wisely shut it quickly and quietly. Kari took off after Duo already planning the braided pilot's demise.
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" screamed Duo as he ran. Now to those of you who don't know it yet this part of the house goes in a loop. The pilots have rooms on the left and right side of this hallway on the other side of the left are more rooms which are guest rooms that hall goes into a loop which leads right back to the pilot's rooms.
Heero opened his door to see 02 and 06 run by his door. Blinking he wondered what had Duo done to her now. He leaned against his door frame and waited for the two to come back by. Once they did he moved out and grabbed Kari round the waist. Duo thinking her still behind him kept going. Heero then slipped on a bit of the ice cream and landed on his back with Kari sitting falling right beside him both sat up and Heero stared at her, biting back his inner laughter. She had vanilla ice cream with chocolate syrup in her hair and it had run down the sides of her face and was dripping from her chin. He then noticed she was wearing his clothes. Heero moved her wet bangs from her eyes and stared at her, both looking into the others eyes frozen Heero then did something very…un-Heero like. Heero lifted his hand and dipped his finger into the ice cream on her face and tasted it he then smirked. "Nice Ice cream."
Kari stared at him before smirking and shaking her head she splattered ice cream on an astonished Heero. Then repeating what he had done, she said, "Nice vanilla Heero."
The turned when the heard a choking sound and looked to see a shocked Duo standing there.
"Ack, Heero…FLIRTING?"
Heero pulled out his gun and said, "Ome o Kuruosu." (sp?)
Duo took off and locked himself in his room.
Kari smirked and shook her head. Heero stood and pulled her up to her feet effortlessly. "You had better go get the ice cream out of your hair. Duo should be ready to get his plan into action today."
Kari sighed and nodded. "I wonder what he has in store."
She then left to go and rewash her hair leaving Heero to clean him self up from the splattered ice cream.
Duo walked down the stairs with a bulging bag over his shoulder.
Seeing the others sitting around the living room he said, "Come on I got what we need lets go!"
Quatre followed Duo and walked after him screaming not to run.
The others followed quietly. (Kari is still in Heero's clothes so you don't forget.)
Kari looked at all the vehicles in the garage. Heero climbed onto his motorcycle and looked at her. Turning her head she saw him handing her a helmet and she took it smirking. Hopping on behind him, he asked her "Like to go fast?"
"Do birds fly?" she retorted.
Heero smirked under his helmet and took off out of the garage ignoring Quatre's screams of "NOT SO FAST HEERO!"
Duo in the viper with the others smirked. Today was going to be fun.
When they caught up with Heero he was already at the designated spot leaning on his bike and Kari on a high tree branch above him.
Duo hopped out of the car and waited for the others to join them once there. he opened the bag and handed out the guns in them.
"Paint ball!" (AN: and bet you didn't see that one coming did ya?"
"We are going to play paint ball here everyone has their own color in the guns. So let's just play!"
at that they all separated and walked through the woods to find their targets.
Heero walked right behind who he was tracking didn't seem that they had noticed him yet.
Quatre smiled and followed the shadow in the tree shooting at hit he called "Got cha Heero!"
He blinked when he noticed it was only a piece of cloth. Frowning he turned only to get hit with a silver paint ball right in the chest.
Quatre turned an tried to find who had shot him but he didn't see them.
"ohhh he said I'm gonna get whoever that was."
Duo smiled as he got Wufei again this time in the back the boy was getting mad.
"Maxwell! I am going to kill you!"
Wufei turned and finaly shot at Duo with his paint ball gun.
"Gak!"
"Wu-man got me!"
"Don't call me Wu-man!"
else where…
Kari snuck through the trees. She hadn't fond any of the boys yet but she had gotten Quatre earlier. "illy boy shooting at the birds." He had almost gotten a blue bird but hit the tree instead.
Kari then heard a twig snap behind her and she tried to turn around but got pinned to the ground.
"GET off of ME!" who ever it was put the paint ball gun to the base of her neck. She growled at him.
"Heero Yuy if you don't get off of me this instant whether or not you have kids won't be questionable!"
Heero smirked. "I don't think our in a position to be threatening."
Kari growled again. And lashed out at him as much she could. Heero's smirk only got wider.
Kari then smiled her own smile and said "Hey Yuy?"
Heero grunted.
"Heads up!" she then threw her hand backwards splattering mud in Heero's face. That being unexpected Heero rolled off of her. Kari then turned to him with a grin only to be hit in the face with mud herself.
Glaring at him she grabbed her fallen weapon and shot at him insistently. Heero following her example…
Later the guys all sat by the car covered in paint ball paint. "I wonder where that Onna and Yuy are." Stated Wufei. Then hearing a bellow of anger Quatre sighed "I think we might have to wait a while."
After about an hour it was getting a little dark Heero and Kari came out of the woods covered in head to toe with the others paint ball color. Duo bit back a chuckle as he noticed that they had tell tale mud on their shirts too. Heero hopped onto his motorcycle Kari behind him and putting on their helmets they left Quatre driving the car right behind them. Once reaching back though everyone was laughing about Duo and Wufei's argument in the car which had ended with Wufei holding Duo's head over the door.
They were getting ready to leave when Rashid walked in. Quatre turned to him, "Rashid is something wrong?"
"No sir," answered Rashid. "This woman Doctor K is here to speak with Miss Kari."
Kari stiffened and stood up as K walked in. as she had been seen on the computer. But this time they could tell how tall she was.
She was about 6'1 in height. Her long red hair was pulled back into a pony tail and a streak of grey covered one bang that went over her eye.
"Kari it is time I told you where you came from."
Kari stood stock still.
"Sit down for goodness sake child."
Kari walked over to a couch and sat down the guys all sat down around her. Quatre sat in a chair opposite of the couch. Heero and Duo sat on either side of her. Wufei sat on another chair Trowa in the chair next to him.
"I know you must have thought I gave you that cross right?"
Kari picked up the cross around her neck by the chain and nodded.
"Well my dear it was not given to you by me."
"When you were younger you had been taken in by a church. I remember it because it had burned down so long ago."
Duo looked surprised and sat up quickly.
"You were given that cross by the mother of that church. That is what all the people called her anyway. Can't say I remember her name but it was hers, she gave it to you as she lay in that fire do you remember?"
Kari shook her bowed head until the memory hit her. She looked up and nodded.
"I do remember that." She said loud enough for K to hear.
"Well, it was after that, that you were taken to that orphanage where I found you. I suspect that the fire and all the smoke you inhaled caused your memory loss. That is what I had to tell you anyway. I made you forget dear. I had to tell you this since you were possibly beginning to remember yourself."
Kari stared at her. And didn't say anything.
"Your name 06, is Kari Maxwell. You were adopted by the priest of that church with another child you were given that last name by him but forgot it because of me."
Kari at hearing this shook her head harshly. "No, no, no!" Kari got up and ran from the room. Duo who had been about to follow her was stopped by K. "Let her go 02."
Heero left ignoring the new doctor he looked outside and didn't see any trace of her looking up he saw that she had indeed climbed up the screen again and was sitting on the roof.
