Title: Death's Angel
Author: Kendra
Pairings: Not really into the pairings yet, except for 3xIW and brief
mention of 4xDC
Warnings: AU, angst, violence, romance.
Disclaimer: I no own Gundam Wing but I own my crazy mind.
Notes: I started this in 2000 and 2001 and then it became lost. I then went through the GWML fic mirror looking for fics and I rediscovered this after 2 hrs of searching. Currently there isn't a real romantic focus but the main couples are 1xR, 4xDC, 6x9. After Chapter 6, there will be a lot of 1xR stuff going on so I guess the main pairing is 1xR. Chapters 1-3 were written in 2000 and 4-5 were written in 2001. They have been edited and spellchecked but there will be a change in writing and tone with chapter 6 and beyond because my writing style has changed.
Death's Angel: Prologue
//After the Mariemaia's rebellion, the Gundam pilots were the darlings of the Earth Sphere United Nation, after once again saving the world from the danger of an impending dictatorship. After the war, the Gundam pilots split up again, but this time they kept their
Gundams, just in case something like this ever happened again. Duo Maxwell returned to L2, to his scavenger business with Hilde Schiebecker, quickly dubbed as the "King of Junk" for his expertise in recycling anything and everything.
Chang Wufei joined the Preventers, becoming Sally Po's partner and quickly moved up the ladder, becoming First Lieutenant First Class of the Preventer's Special Space Forces. Trowa returned to the circus as Catherine's partner for two years before marrying Iria Winner, 6 years his senior, surprising the whole world and the Winner Family, except for Quatre. Quatre Raberba Winner took his father's place as the head of the Winner Corporation and as the representative of the Colonies' interests. On the romantic front, Quatre Raberba Winner and Dorothy Catalonia married in AC 198 but have been estranged since 200 with Dorothy's miscarriage of a son.
Milliardo Peacecraft, now going only by Zechs Merquise, and Lucrezia Noin left for Mars directly after the war, spearheading the successful Mars terraforming project. Lady Une is still the head of the Preventers and the adoptive mother of Mariemaia Khrushenada. Relena Dorlian is still working for the Earth Sphere United Nation, now the Minister of Foreign Affairs, and the director of the efforts to build the newest colonies, L6, L7, and L8.
However, Heero Yuy, the hero of the past two wars, has gone missing, fading into the woodwork, to be called again only when there is a need.....//
AC 201, MO-IV, orbiting outside of L6
Palmer lay back in the chair, lazily punching buttons as she watched the surveillance satellites. "Nothing new, as usual,? Palmer muttered as she propped her feet up on an adjoining chair. She yawned; her job was boring, looking for any anomalies in the area.
Over the past three years, Palmer saw nothing, as earth and the colonies had been experiencing 5 years of peace.
"Palmer! Hey, you wanna go for a bite to eat?? a young man asked, a goofy grin and a hopeful look in his eyes. Palmer smiled and said, "Yeah, why not?? It would give her a break from this monotonous task and maybe a hot date for this weekend when she got to take a break in L5.
Returning 1 hour later, Palmer was humming to herself until she saw a bright red flash on her screen. Muttering, "What the hell?", Palmer quickly typed in a few commands, exclaiming, "OH MY GOD!", as the display showed activity around L8, activity that showed a flurry of what could only be called mobile suits leaving the area.
L1, Minimoto City
The young man slouched in his seat in the cafe, his Prussian-blue eyes looking everywhere and nowhere. Looking at his watch, the man's features turned impatient as his fingers drummed on the table as his guest hurried inside, her platinum-blond hair trailing behind her back, the only contrast to her all-black clothing ensemble.
"Your information, Red Wolf. Everything is as complete as your instructions said it should be.? the woman said, her face expectant, as she handed the man a disk. The man grunted, placing the disk in his jacket. 'The woman tended to be chatty, but she was the best other than him when it came to this type of work.? he thought as the lady began talking. He feigned attention until she mentioned mobile suits being seen around L8. The man commanded her to restate what she had said, his mind racing as he thought, 'I had a feeling that this was going to happen.', as he went over some data he had received a
Month ago mentally. Bidding the young lady adieu, he raced back to his flat, punching codes into his handheld unit.
Hooked up to his laptop, he punched in codes as figures raced ahead. Finding what he wanted, he whispered, "Wing Zero, we have a mission to complete.? Reaching into a drawer, he took out a picture, running his fingers over it, whispering, "Relena.". After sending a message to some very important friends, he grabbed his jacket and left the flat.
