Chapter 14 Creepy
Butch had reluctantly agreed to a randiview point togather A.D.. He figured he had better let everyone he could trust, with the information know. Butch opened the door and stepped in. Relena had done what she had been told to do. Stay with the human Rebels and keep her trap shut. Apparently someone had talked some sense into her. He leaned against the doorway. Une glared at him, "How long will we be trapped like prisoners?" Butch snorted, "Your free to leave when you want. But I wouldn't suggest that unless you want to end up dead." He sighed, "Good news and bad news. Good news is we found A.D.. Bad news, she has no clue who she is or what she can do," Varying looks of shock on their faces. " We all know how A.D. acted. She could for the most part control her anger and not snapped someone into two; unless they were the enemy. Now she's even more unpredicatable. Try and put an arm around her, and you'll end up unconconcious. When she's here, don't confront her, don't provoke her, don't try and put an arm around her. We don't know how she'll react." Duo groaned, "So now she's even more unstable."
"We need to pray that she remembers. Rio will be in charge while I'm gone."
"And what happens if that crazy girl comes here?"
"Really not your problem. Rio will figure it out."
After Butch left, they were not happy. Quatra looked especially concern, he looked to Une, "Now what?"
"Nothing." Duo began to gesture with his hands, "Nothing? Since when have you sat back and did nothing."
"Maxwell we're out numbered. If we did try and take over, the only thing we would be is dead."
"I still say we're dead anyways!" Relena put her book to the side, "Their capible of handling her."
"What?" All heads turned to her, "I once saw her. Or rather her personality. She was yelling at Paul at about one thing or another. Rio and Butch tried dragging her away. Than I'm guessing they injected a sedative into her. Butch took her away and Rio was apoligizing." Une glared at her, "And why didn't you tell us you reconized them?" She picked back up her book, "Rio was wanted for treason, and he was facing death. He was alive and well. He wasn't hollow of a shell any more. Besides you declared him dead anyways. And Butch," She shrugged, "Looked like other guards there."
A man dressed in a suit entered the E.S.U.N. building and made his way to an office. He opened the door and kneeled in front of the desk, "White Wolf is dead sir. But her brothers been compimised. He's fighting the chip we put into his head."
"Are you positive she's dead?"
"From what I've been told. Yes, she is." He smirked and gave a chuckle, "The Wolf has fallen and so shall the Dove. This world shall be covered in darkness. Tell me something Drake, do you know why I started this campaign?"
"No sir. We just follow your orders."
"I was once a member of a royal family that was forced to fall because of the Russian Tzar and her family," He stood up and walked to the window over looking the city, "I was promised the princess. The princess had other ideas and disappeared into thin air. I was forced to give up my position to the crown. After all a King cannot rule a country without a Queen. My brother got married first. And if I couldn't have the crown, than no one could. I later ended up shooting my own brother and all of the royal family. I burned the castle to the ground with all of the bodies. Do you know who the princess married?"
"No sir."
"Some mutt that couldn't even prove his heritage. Wanting to educate the Russians." He turned around to look at Drake, "Tell my Queen that she may go ahead as planned."
A.D. hid behind the Prime Minister after she saw Butch. The Prime Minister gently put a hand on her back, "You don't remember him either, do you?" She shook her head, "Why, should I?" Butch approached slowly and cautiously, he didn't feel like ending up dead, after being mauled by her of course. A.D. had never been intimidated by how tall he was, now she was shrinking away from him. The Prime Minister smiled, "Don't worry, he'll take care of you." She reluctantly let go, something told her to go with the giant, and so far her gut had never been wrong.
Butch put her in her own room. The flight back had been made in silence, after all they couldn't talk about anything; A.D. didn't remeber anything or anyone. Rio was going to flip out. He was about as loyal and protective as one could get with someone he cared for. Butch just scratched his head at that thought. She was about as loving and caring as a bad tempered wasp. As well as having a personality that equaled to that of fourty grit sandpaper. He sighed. Oh well, as long as Rio was happy standing by her side, who was he to judge? Than another thought crossed his mind, if A.D. knew Rio had fallen for her. He shuddered at that thought. A.D. barely had any manners, so how would she reconize love, even if it came up and bite her on her ass? Than again love wouldn't be the one doing the biting, she would. Now to break the news to the others that A.D.'s mind was as blank as a white board that was recently cleaned...
A.D. sat on the barely used bed, she felt like everything should be familiar, and yet she was drawing a blank. She saw few books on the bookshelf, written in various languages, all of which she felt she should have known. She curled up on the bed, some how feeling at home. She closed her eyes, and slept. For what felt like the first time in a very long time. For what reason she was drawing a blank again.
Rio stood there with his mouth open, he closed his jaw trying to say something only for nothing to come out. Than a pissed off look crossed his face, than pure rage. He knew to blame. He knew who he had to kill. Because of that bitch their future of freedom was in jepordy because all of them had refused to listen. Butch stood in his way and glared, "Don't do anything stupid." Rio began to growl, than hissed, "Because of that bitch, revenge for my wife goes down the tube!"
"Rio, calm down. This is probably temproary."
"And what if it isn't? Can you translate Russian? Last time I looked I couldn't and neither could you!"
"Even if it is we'll figure it out. Getting upset now means mistakes are made. Remember Boss's laws?"
"She can't even remember her name, so who gives a damn!"
"No one knows she's here, except for a few of us. Let her have a few days."
"And if nothing makes her remember than what?" Butch sighed, he was showing one thing that they were never supposed to show. Fear. If everything went to hell in a hand basket, there would be no stopping it, except for boss. And the last thing any of them wanted to be, was slaves to a dark world. Rio was also afraid of what would happen to her. Paul barely tolerated what she did, but now since she had no memories of what she could do, what would happen? Would she be thrown into a cell? Executed? Collared and exiled? And since A.D. couldn't fear for her safety, someone had to.
Butch and Rio were able to keep Paul at bay. Paul wanted to come and see how many unfinished, and highly illegal peojects A.D. had started, but didn't finish. Butch slumpped into A.D.'s chair, "What are we going to do?"
"Force her into hiding?"
"That would never work. He'd figure out she can't remember squat."
"Plan B?" Butch glared at him, "I wish to live to see another day Rio, not have her get her memories back and than procceed to kill us all because we used her pet peeves against her."
Luna was doing everything in her powers to entertain A.D.. Luna couldn't get over the fact that this version of A.D. was poliet and respectful. She didn't curse, she didn't yell or even demand anything. She just did what she was told to do. A.D. would have used some colorful language and gave the double bird before marching off to do what she wanted. Luna didn't know if she should be creeped out or what. But it was a nice change of pace. Than a thought occured to Luna, what would A.D. do when she found out that she had used what everyone else called manners?
Relena had to lie to Paul several times in order to protect where A.D. was. None of them felt like being at the front end of a morpher rebellion and all of them ended up dead; because someone had loose lips and said A.D. had lost her memory. Relena was looking over the damage reports to the base in Moscow, and the papers declaring A.D. dead. And for the cause, it was simply stated that she was an idiot and blew herself up. Even that left an after taste in Relena's mouth, but what could she say? Everyone that knew A.D. may admit that she may have been a little unstable at times, but not so much so that she posed a flat out danger to anyone. She had seen the truth, and at that expense A.D. had lost her memory. And no one knew if or even when she would get it back. She signed off on the reports.
Than something was going to threaten A.D.. Luna was playing scrabble with her in her room, 'Luna move A.D. and move her now!'
'Rio? What's wrong?"
'It's Ellens! He knows something is up! Don't poof or anything that will cause a disterbance!'
'Where should I put her?'
'A closet for all I know! Just hide her!' Luna stood up, "A.D.?" The girl looked up and cocked her head to the side, "What?"
"Rio wants to play a game with us." A.D. cocked her head to the other side, "What kind of game?"
"Hide and seek. We hide and he tries to find us." Luna had to keep her calm, she didn't want to know what happens when A.D. experiences stress and can't remember how to handle it. Luna bit her tongue praying it would work. "Alright." Luna let out a sigh than kept her tone light, "Well than we had better hide right?"
Relena was reading another book, when the door opened and Luna flew in dragging A.D. behind her. Luna opened the closet and pushed her in and hid her behind the clothes and coats, "Luna?"
"Everything's alright A.D.. Also don't come out unless you hear me tell you it's okay or Rio or Butch does, alright?"
"Why?"
"You trust me right?"
"Of course. Why wouldn't I?"
"Than do as your told." A.D. just stood there as Luna rearranged the clothes back in order, shutting teh doors firmly. Luna began to point and bark, "Loose lips, don't talk or say a word! Bitch say one word to tip off Ellens that A.D. is alive, and may what ever god you pray to save your soul," She rounded on Une, "Same goes for you." Luna felt concern coming off of Quatra, she looked at him, "Ellens has been tipped off. He's looking for her. He finds her," She drew a line along her throat, "So we're hiding her somewhere." Luna flopped down in a chair, "Everyone act as normal as possible, without blabbing. " She picked up a book and began to read, not five minutes later the door opened and there stood Ellens, "Where is she?" Luna briefly glanced up and than went back to reading, "Exactly what do you mean?"
"Where's A.D.?"
"If you remember, she'd dead."
"Your hiding her. Where?"
"We're not hiding her. She's gone."
"Than why isn't Grande tearing the world apart?"
"Because he knows that if he even tries, I'll send him to his ass again." He looked over at Relena, "Is she telling the truth?"
"Of course. Wouldn't I tell you if she wasn't dead?" He rounded back to Luna, "Your just as sneaky and caniving as the other two." He walked to the closet and was about to open the door. One thought crossed Luna's mind, 'Oh shit! No!'. Paul placed his hand on the door nob, "Paul?" He looked at Relena, "Yes?"
"I have some questions about the papers you wanted me to sign." He took his hand off the door, "What questions?"
"Just general questions." Paul looked at Luna, "I know the three of you are involved some how." He turned on his heels and left with Relena. When he was gone Luna clutched her heart to prevent it from beating out of her rib cage, "To damn close!" After a few hours Luna heard Rio comment, 'He's gone.'
'He'll come back. Won't he?'
'Unfortunately yes.'
'What should we do?'
'Start asking Yuy questions.'
'Why?'
'A.D. once told me Dr. J and D pinned them up together. He's just as immortal as you can get, minus the whole transforming thing. If you have the right answers, I'm sure he can answer them.'
'I'll try. But he's just like A.D..'
'But that will play out for us.'
'I'll try.'
Rio sat in A.D.'s chair, "We can't keep this up. One day he'll catch us with her, and she'll be dead."
"Than what do you propose we do?"
"Use all of A.D.'s pet peeves against her." Butch crossed his arms, "You must want to join your wife badly, huh?"
"Well do you know how to expertly navigate A.D.'s mind?"
"No."
"And can you presuade the two people who have blantly refuse to probe anyone's mind for no reason to?"
"No."
"Than we're going to use her pet peeves against her! And so help me if that fails!"
A.D. sat quietly on the sofa, while Luna grilled Heero. Than he said something that would alter what they all thought, "It's not amnesia. It's just the fact she doesn't want to remember. If she had amnesia she wouldn't know who to trust or she would trust everyone. Since she's actually choosing people, it's not amnesia. If she didn't truely want to leave with someone, than she probably wouldn't."
"Have you ever seen her like this before?"
"Once."
"When?"
"Dr. D wanted to test out her loyalty to him. When she didn't come back, he went to look for her. When she came back, she acted like how she is now."
"How did you snap her out of it?"
"D did."
"And she placed them on a desert island." Luna shook her head, this wasn't good. If she didn't want to remember, than chances are she wouldn't. Than the door opened and a morpher stood there and jabbered at Luna in some tongue. Luna looked annoyed, "Slow the hell down or I can't understand you." Than the morpher said in broken english, "Rio, Butch, Auto and few others paint Red Felcon." It took her two seconds to realize what they were up to. Luna looked at A.D., "Stay here." She cocked her head to the side, "What's wrong?"
"Nothing if I can help it. So just stay tight, alright?" A.D. just nodded dumbly. And Luna just stormed out followed by the morpher. Everyone didn't know to be creeped out or releaved that they didn't have to deal with a psyco anymore.
Luna stood on the catwalk, "You morons know you just signed your death certificates right?" Rio waved her off, "If this gets her to remember, I'm willing to take a beating."
"You know this will send her over the deep end right?" Rio just shrugged and went back to painting. Luna just silently prayed to her gods that they would make A.D. ease up on their punishment. But knowing her, she'd beat them until they were barely alive by a thread. Yup this would be interesting.
A.D. continued to sit in silence. Duo was behind Quatra, this had to be a trick. So it was safer to use the blond as a shield, she wouldn't kill him. Relena was concerned, this was a complete one eighty for A.D.. Sure she may scream and hollar as well as threaten a lot, but that was just, well A.D.. And watching her sit quiet and meek like that, was well short of disterbing. Luna reentered the room, "Keep her away from the molbil bay." Une glared at her, "Why?"
"Rio and Butch have taken drastic measures to try and make her memories come back. She sees what they've done, she'll go balistic on their asses."
