Chapter 6: Welcome back, Trowa!
(Trowa and Quatre were still in the boat, then Quatre tries to wake Maya up. Suddenly, Maya opened her eyes, Maya gasped, then Quatre gasped.)
Trowa(in relief): Maya!
Maya(tired): Huh? Trowa?
Trowa: It's all right, no one can harm you anymore.
(Maya quickly sat up, then she looked at Quatre.)
Maya: Who are you, stranger?
Quatre: Who? Me? I'm Quatre.
Maya: Quatre? That's a funny name!
Trowa: Well, to you it is.
Maya: Where am I?
(Maya got to her feet and she was not home, she was at Barcelona, Spain. She looked at the buildings with confusement.)
Maya: That's where you live?
Trowa: Yeah.
Maya: Can I go home? What happened to Tecumbalam? Where's Father?
Quatre(to Trowa): Um, I think your friend here is going nuts.
(Trowa and Quatre gasped as Maya tries to escape from the boat, but luckily Trowa brought her back safely into the boat. Maya struggles to break free from Trowa.)
Maya(struggling): No, let me go, I say! Let me GO!
Trowa: I can't let you go!
Maya: But I can't live here!
Trowa: Well I won't let you, now come on.
(Quatre and Trowa drags Maya out of the boat themselves, then at sunset, Trowa, Quatre and Maya disguised themselves so that they won't get caught. Trowa, Quatre and Maya find the nearest ladder that they could find and set it so that they can climbed to Trowa's bedroom. Luckly the ladder is long enough to climb in, so they did. Trowa locked the window and the three were safe, but then Catherine was coming to the bedroom. The three went inside the wardrobe, in which they all fit. They heard Catherine praying and crying for Trowa and Quatre's safe return, then she left and all three of them fell out of the wardrobe.)
Quatre: Well, that was...
(Trowa covers Quatre's mouth)
Trowa(whisper): Not so loud, we leave now!
Quatre(whisper): Why?
Trowa(whisper): We don't want to surprise them, right?
Quatre: Yeah, so?
Trowa: We'll live with my long time friend, Lady Une, she'll help us!
(At Lady's house, Lady heard three footsteps, then she sees three cloaked figurines in front of her.)
Lady: Ha! Who goes there?
Trowa: Lady.
Lady: Trowa? Is that you?
(Lady took the hood off of Trowa, and she was surprised.)
Lady(gasp): Oh my god, I thought you were...
Trowa: Dead?
Lady: Yeah but...
Trowa: Pretend that you didn't see me when I go back to the palace by morning.
Lady: Why?
Trowa: Please...
Lady: Okay.
(Quatre took his hood off, and so did Maya.)
Lady: Who's she?
Trowa(pointing to Maya): Lady, I want you to meet Maya...
Lady(to Maya): Hello.
Maya(to Lady): Hi.
Trowa: Maya's my girlfriend, and she needs to blend in with the crowd. Can we stay for 3 days?
Lady: I thought you're going to the palace by morning.
Trowa: Change of plans.
Lady: Okay.
Maya(to Trowa): I can't take off the cloak?
Trowa(to Maya): Why not?
Maya: Remember?
Trowa: Oh. (then to Lady) Uh? Lady, can Maya borrow one of you dresses?
Lady: Sure... why does she need a dress?
Trowa: She's N-A-K-E-D.
Lady: Oh. (then to Maya) All right friend, let's see what I got for you.
(Maya followed Lady to her bedroom.)
Quatre: Ooh, a girlfriend, eh?
Trowa: Hey, hey! Take it easy, we met 3 months ago.
Quatre: Well, it doesn't seem like you've met her three months ago. It looks like to me that you've known her for a long time.
Trowa: You really want to know the dirty details...
(At Lady's bedroom)
Lady: So how did you and Trowa meet?
Maya: I don't know, It seems like it was just yesterday, He saved me from a band of thieves.
Lady: Ooh, pretty heroic!
Maya: Yeah.
Lady: Well I think that you two are the perfect couple.
Maya: Really?
Lady: Yeah! It seems that you give his mojo back after what happened to his last girfriend.
Maya: I know, he told me, he promissed never to love again, but he didn't.
Lady: I know, he broke a lot of promises, but I got over it.
Maya: Oh.
Lady(holding the dress): Found it!
Maya: Is that for me?
Lady: I don't know, but try it on.
(Maya went to the dressing room to try out the dress. Meanwhile downstairs...)
Trowa: She's very beautiful, even though she's too short, and we have sex.
Quatre: No way!
Trowa: Yes way!
Quatre: How?
Trowa: She got raped, but I gave her the love that no one ever given her.
Quatre: Ooh wow! that sucks, but at the end, okay.
Lady: Okay guys, were ready
(Trowa and Quatre got up. Maya came downstairs with a beautiful, sparkling yellow and orange dress. Trowa was amazed.)
Trowa(to Maya): Wow! You look hot!
(Maya giggles)
Lady: Yeah, and we're at the same dress size
Trowa: Good, now she needs is to put her hair up.
Quatre: Huh?
Maya: What? I can't! My hair's too long!
Lady: My hair's long, but I manage to put it in a bun.
Maya: I don't like that on me, sorry.
Lady: It's okay. Few women have their hair down.
Quatre: It's getting late, we should go to bed.
Trowa: Yeah, he's right, let's gets some sleep.
(Everyone went to their bedrooms, only Trowa and Maya share a bed. At midnight, Trowa was having the same nighmare from before: His nightmare was his memory about Midii. He missed her so much. He even attend at her funeral, then it shows the killer of Midii Une. Everyone was at the prison, and the killer was at the guilotine. Trowa was the one who cut the rope and the killer is dead, then he woke up, breathing heavily. He was all sweaty after the nightmare, but then he looked at Maya, who was asleep, then in his mind it happened again, but this time Maya was in Midii's place: the shooting, the death, the funeral, and the execution, everything happen as if were a broken record playing the same events. Since Midii and Maya have something in common, and they both have blond hair, and have trouble speaking English, Trowa knows that he can't let Maya go, because he don't want to do the same mistake over and over again: Letting them die. 3 days have passed and the three teens set off to the palace. As they arrived at the palace...)
Quatre: I'll go in first,(then to Trowa) Trowa, you go in after I give the good news, and(then to Maya) Maya, you stay in the bushes until Trowa says "I'm seeing someone." Okay?
Trowa: Okay.
Quatre: Good (sighs) Let's make it happen!
(Quatre went in to the palace. The prince's family got up when Quatre came back.)
Catherine: So... did you find him?
Quatre: He's safe and he's here!
(Catherine, Jose and Maria were relieved that Trowa's is safe, then Trowa came in to the palace. Catherine's and Maria's tears are filled with joy as he approched to them. Catherine ran to him and hugged.)
Catherine(sobbing): Oh Trowa, you're okay, (then angry and lets go of him) Where were you?
Trowa: Somewhere, maybe from another country.
Catherine(angry): Well don't scare me like that again! Do you understand, mister?
Trowa(embarrassed): Yes, and don't call me mister! I hate it when you call me that!
Catherine: Okay, but you're in big trouble!
Trowa: I know.
Maria: Oh, my baby (then hugs Trowa) After all these months, you finally returned to us.
Jose: All of Spain should be happy for your safe return. Welcome back, my son.
Trowa: I'm happy to be here.
Jose: So, anyone we like to meet?
Trowa: Yeah (then to Maya) Come here, sweetheart!
(Everyone was excited to meet the European princess who stole his heart, legally. Maya looked around and then she sees Trowa and his family.)
Trowa(to Maya): It's okay! They won't bite!
(Maya still didn't move, then Trowa came to her.)
Maya: But what if they don't like me.
Trowa: Nonsense! They will like you.
(Maya felt much better, but she looked down. Trowa and Maya walked toward the family.
Trowa: Everyone, I want you to meet Maya (then to Maya) Maya, this is my father, King Jose, my mother, Queen Maria, and my older sister, Princess Catherine.
Maya(head down, eyes up): Hi.
Catherine: Aww! She's very shy!
Maria & Jose: Hello.
Trowa: She's my girlfriend.
Maria & Jose: Oh!
Jose: I knew you have someone to love!
Catherine: Yeah! I have to agree. At least she's not that Cassidy girl.
Maya: Cassidy?
Catherine: Oh, man! Don't get me started with her!
Trowa: What's up with Cassidy?
Catherine: Trowa! the crazy seductress is obsessed with you!
Trowa: Oh great!
Catherine: Tell me about it!
Maya: So, Trowa's in love with her?
Catherine: No. No he's not! He's in love with you. Is he?
Maya: Yeah.
Catherine: Great! You two are the perfect couple!
Maya: Catherine... Is it okay I call you that?
Catherine: Sure.
Maya: Did you ever heard what happen to Midii?
Catherine: Oh, yeah, what a bummer! Trowa couldn't sleep or eat! It was hell for him since Midii passed away. He was only 15 at that time.
Maya: 15?
Catherine: Yeah, but now he's 17. It's been 2 years since Midii's murder.
Maya: Do you know who might have done this?
Catherine: I don't know. They never find the suspect.
Cassidy: What suspect?
Catherine(annoyed): Oh boy!
Cassidy: Hey circus freak!
Catherine: I'm not a circus freak, you bitch!
Cassidy: Whatev' (then to Maya) and who's she?
Catherine: Maya. Don't you even think about picking on her!
Cassidy: And how did you knew that?
Catherine: I don't know, may be she has been picked on before. What do you think?
Cassidy: I think she needs a friend.
Catherine: She'll never be friends with you!!!
Maya: I'm still here, you know.
Cassidy: Oh don't worry, she will!
Catherine: Not in a million years you won't!!
Trowa: What's going on?
Cassidy(to Trowa): Hi, Trowa.
Trowa(confused): Hi?
Catherine: Trowa, can you do something? I know that Maya will get picked on because Cassidy thinks she's better than everyone!
Trowa(to Catherine): Oh. Did Cassidy have a boyfriend, yet?
Cassidy(to Trowa): Of course I do! And it's you!
Trowa: Cassidy, I'm not you're boyfriend!
Cassidy(pissed): Then who is?
Trowa: I'm seeing someone else!
Cassidy: Our relationship cannot end! I won't allow it!
Trowa: Sorry, Cassidy. It's Maya that I love!
Cassidy: What?!
(Trowa walks towards Maya. Trowa grabs Maya, and he kissed her. Catherine was amazed, but Cassidy was heartbroken. It's like somewhat High School Musical style: TrowaTroy, MayaGabriella, CatherineTaylor, CassidySharpay, and Quatre is either Ryan or Chad. Anyways, Back to the story, Cassidy doesn't want to be friends with Trowa. She wanted more than just a friend. She wanted a boyfriend, a husband and a father if they have kids, in which is not going to happen, but she doesn't understand that Trowa is taken. She wanted him so bad, that she has no choice but to eliminate Maya once and for all!)
Cassidy: Fine then! We'll be friends, but you'll never seen the last of me!
(Cassidy stormed off. She slams the door hard.)
Maya: What was that all about?
Trowa: I don't know, but once there's a chance to get married, she'll have to find someone else available.
