Hey people! Sorrrry for the LONG wait! Haha anyways, I'm probably going have to make this fic rated M for the content coming up. If you have any objections, say so, because I'm definitely thinking of doing this, and soon. Ok also I NEED more reviews; a writer cannot live off of single digits!

Ok, on to the story.

Chapter 5

---Betrayal Lies Within---

The trip to the base seemed like an eternity to Heero Yuy. Every moment waiting till he was supposed to fight again continued to get worse. He had shunned away his piloting life and he thought it had been over in his perspective.

He looked outside his Gundam and studied his surroundings. His vision was still half blurred but it wasn't too hard to make out what he saw. Darkness engulfed him, for the exception of the few tiny shining stars. Nothing seemed to be moving or disturbed. And although it seemed peaceful, behind the reality of it all, the war crushed any hope. It was quiet a scene, and it stirred something home-felt inside of him. He couldn't believe it. Even after the five years of being isolated, the place he had spent his entire time killing felt more home like to him. 'Home…' he thought. Did he really have a home anyways?

Heero shook his head. This was foolish thinking; it wasn't going to get him anywhere stirring up his past. He popped up the video screen of his fellow pilots flying behind him. Each was flying at a steady pace towards their destination; their mission.

Suddenly, faint beeps came from Heero's screen. Information poured onto it, leaving the rest of the details of their mission. They were within 100 miles of the base, meaning they had 2 minutes to go.

Heero gripped the steering handles on his chair tighter. It would be so easy to just fly away right now. He could leave these troubles behind him and escape again. He knew better from experience though that they'd just find him again. One more minute.

Tiny beads of sweat rolled down Heero's rough, war weathered face. He couldn't do this; there was nothing left in him to fight. He couldn't kill another single soul. He glared at his gun controls. Slowly, he placed his trembling fingers on them. How he had gained the strength to do so left him horribly confused. At the same moment, he felt himself raise his other arm to his sword controls. 10 seconds.

9 he could just barely make out faint lights and a HUGE base ahead of him.

8 "Heero! You and Trowa have the left! Good luck!" Quatra's voice seemed shaky, but determined.

7- silence

4 –'I can't do this.'

3 – 'What the hell am I doing?'

2 - …

1 – 'Oh god'

His senses were severely shocked when he realized a mobile suit was headed straight at him. His mind screamed, tearing in a million directions, the suspense killing him. The mobile suit readied its sword and lunged for his first attack. Heero closed his eyes, afraid of what would happen to him.

Nothing happened. He opened his eyes. His mouth opened slightly when he realized what had occurred. Tiny wisps of smoke rose from out of his gun and a bright light flashed around him. He had shot the suit on sudden impulse and had hit him dead on. He had killed his first enemy in five years. He felt shock and nerves eating away at his stomach.

His hands continued to shake and he slowly advanced. He felt millions of shots being fired at him, and somehow, without thinking, he dodged each and every one of them. He began to get dangerously close and three more mobile suits raced towards him, weapons ready. When they thought they had him, he dodged up and shot one from above. The other two whirled around him, evading his attacks. He went to shoot them again but they once again dodged. Not bad for front line soldiers.

'Damn. J wasn't kidding'

Heero flew back up and felt them follow close behind, making shots that would just barely miss Wing Zero. All of the sudden Heero made a sudden brake and both Gundams flew past him. He shot the closest one quickly and then slashed the last one with his sword.

He began to pant, his nerves terrorizing him. He couldn't believe what he had just done. He had no clue what to do next. Did he even want to go farther? He had no time to answer that because at the same moment another mobile suit rushed his way. This one, however, was much more upgraded.

Heero unconsciously put up a battle, swords clashing and gun shots canceling each other out. Finally, annoyed with the wait, Heero attacked from behind and grabbed the Gundam from behind and began to clench him tighter and tighter. Suddenly his communicator screen flashed on.

"Please spare me! I promise I won't attack! I have a new born girl and lovely wife. Please don't take me from them." The soldier's face was twisted painfully.

Heero froze, dead in his tracks. This scene, was all too familiar. His nightmare flashed before his eyes. He couldn't do it. He could not finish off killing this man and he most DEFINITELY could not finish off this mission. It didn't matter anymore.

Slowly, Heero let go of the mobile suit, backing Wing Zero up a bit. Heero felt his body go numb, his insides turn out. His head racked in pain and it felt like he had just been dropped off an 80 floor building. He sat there, motionless, staring at nothing, thinking nothing. All he could see were nightmares and horrible memories of his past. Wing Zero floated in the middle of space, vulnerable and weak. Heero was waken slightly from his daze by the faint words:

"Ha! I can't believe you fell for it! And I thought the Gundam Pilots were invincible!"

The mobile suit rammed into Wing Zero sending him flying back. Heero barely felt the slightest movement. He sat there, undisturbed by the unguarded attack. By now several mobile suits had spotted him and one by one, took turns shooting at him. Wing Zero was slowly deteriorating and Heero Yuy didn't give a damn in the world.

'This is finally it' he thought to himself. Finally it could be over. He would just let them finish him off. It was as simple as that. Now he wouldn't have to do anything. No more fighting.

Heero could see the mobile suit taking its stance for a final attack on Wing Zero, which beeped dangerously in damage alert. The mobile suit raised it's sword and Heero closed his eyes.

'Goodbye'

He waited. And after 5 seconds of nothing happened he opened his eyes. The mobile suits were cleared. What had happened? Without a warning, his Gundam was grabbed from behind and shoved forward. He glanced as far back as he could to see who it was but all he could see was a pair of metal hands. His mind raced inside, confused as to why he just couldn't die. He watched ahead of him as he got closer and closer to the base. Whoever had him was taking him inside. Finally, after flying past most of the guards, his communication screen flashed on.

"Hello Heero" the low, smooth woman voice greeted him. Heero was too shocked to say another word. There on his screen was Lady Une. Was this part of the mission? He realized immediately that it was not. She sat there, with the most evil grin on her face, and an OZ uniform tightly clinging to her body.

"Une…?" he couldn't think of what to say. She had betrayed them.

"You really think I would've helped you and your fellow pilots?" she chuckled. "There is more in this life than Gundams and this so called peace. I can't believe you fell for it all."

Anger bubbled inside Heero. This lady had given in to peace as they had thought when the war had ended. If she had lied, who else? Had she known all along that Treize had not been dead? What kind of sick plan was this? He swore under his breath and his teeth began to grind against each other.

He soon found him and Une stopping inside the landing panel. He watched as hundreds of soldiers gathered around for the event. Could he really be that exciting? He was a failure for god's sake!

He thought quickly before they grabbed him and looked around. Finally he found it; the Gundam lock key. As quickly as possible he took the key out of it's slot and shut Wing Zero down. He knew immediately that they would take the key if he brought it with him, wherever he was going. He darted around and matched his thumb up with the secret print below the communicator screen. It opened, letting out a sigh of pressure. He hadn't used this before, but now was the perfect time. He slipped the key in and shut the compartment.

Now Wing Zero could not be operated until he put his thumb back onto the print, and if anyone tried to open it up by force, it would self destruct. He could not allow his enemy to use the Gundam as a source of information or their own personal killing machine.

As soon as Heero finished his sneaky task he heard the door forcefully open. Une stood there, helmet resting on her hip and a grin spreading across her face.

"I really don't think I've ever accepted this honor before." She walked around to the side of him. Heero's eyes hit the floor. What happened now didn't matter. He was not fighting, and was most probably headed towards death at the very moment. He felt the metal pinch on his wrists as Lady Une swiftly cuffed him and grabbed his arms.

"Try to escape, see what I care" she smirked, fully aware of the 150 soldiers waiting outside of the Gundam. Suddenly she shoved the silent Heero, and he let himself tumble down at least 20 feet before he hit the cement roughly. He felt his head knock the hard floor for a second and then the pain disappeared, but so did his vision. The last thing he heard was:

"Take him to cell 01" from his enemies menacing voice.

-Hours later-

"Quite a sight. This pilot aint ever been fully captured before…."

"Yeah whatever, just wake him up; boss don't want him being late"

The two hushed voices of prison guards began to stir Heero's mind just the slightest.

"GET UP ASS WIPE!" one yelled downing 4 gallons worth of freezing ice cold water on him.

Heero jumped, frozen in shock. Where the hell was he! He rubbed his temples softly trying to recall what had happened.

He glanced up at the two oz soldiers. 'Wait; oz….' He immediately knew where he was. His heart sank lower as he recalled the memories of Une's betrayal, the killing of soldiers, leaving Wing Zero and himself, betraying his fellow pilots.

"I said… GET UP!" the soldier kicked the side of his body and Heero was sent flying to the other side of the cell. He let the bittersweet taste of his own blood leak in his mouth.

"God Damn Gundam Pilot…" one of the soldiers muttered. Heero felt himself being picked up under his armpits from both sides as the two soldiers began to drag him somewhere.

They dragged him out of the dark, eerie, red-glowing prison, into a brilliantly white lit hallway. Heero shunned his eyes from the light difference. He felt his body begin to shiver as his ice cold body was dragged across the cold sleek marble of the base.

Finally they stopped in front of a strictly guarded steel door.

'Where the hell am I going?' Heero thought as the soldiers stopped to get their ids checked.

"The boss' been waiting for you" the soldier gave him a malicious grin as the door began to open slowly.

Heero gasped.
