Better Ideas 12


Everything was dark. The room was damp and slightly cold. Heero awoke to a small cell made of concrete with no windows. He was stripped of all but his under shirt pants and socks. He felt around with his hands, though still cuffed. His boots had been thrown in as well. It was difficult, but he managed to get his hands in front of him and put his boots on. He wasn’t sure, but it felt like hours had passed. The door opened and flooded the room with light. His eyes had trouble adjusting. The same gruff voice greeted his ears.

“Good to see you up, I was hoping we wouldn’t have to drag you.” A pair of guards walked in and picked him up. He was half walked, half dragged to another small room. A small light bulb swung from the ceiling. He was placed in a small wooden chair and the guards left.

“Now mister Yuy.” He smirked. “Let’s see how you can help us.” He paced around a little bit, walking around Heero. “You can join us here. You are after all a fellow soldier. We’re just trying to live the only way we can. We shouldn’t be just cast aside.” Heero didn’t respond immediately.

“You can adapt.” He said looking the man in the eye. He laughed at Heero.

“We could, if we were a bunch sniveling cowardice brats.” He grew angry. A fist contacted Heero in the stomach. His breath was nearly knocked out of him, though he appeared to be unaffected. “So you’re a tough one huh?” He grinned. “Well let’s just see how tough.” He punched him again, and again. Heero’s face started to bruise and his ribs felt like several had been cracked. “War is part of the human race’s nature.” He continued his assault as each syllable came from his mouth. “War will always come back mister Yuy.” Gunshots were heard somewhere inside the facility. The man stopped his assault and turned his head to listen. Heero took advantage of the man’s distraction and threw his legs around the man’s neck. Heero jerked his legs violently to the floor, breaking his captor’s neck in the process.

He stood from the ground hunched over still tied to the chair. The chair broke as he threw himself against the wall, freeing himself from the chair. His hands were still tied. A glimmer caught his eye and then he noticed the knife on the dead man’s belt. After cutting his hands free he started to re-equip himself. The door was kicked off its hinges as his fourth team flowed into the room.

“Major Yuy, the facility is secured.” The unit’s lead officer told him. “I told you that you should’ve stayed with our unit.”

“I’m fine anyway. What happened?” The officer told him about the other squads double cross and their assault on the bunker they were in. All they found here was a list of Preventor traitors and a supply list. Judging from both lists, this was a very small part of the entire organization.

“Get the lists to Une, and call for air evac.”


Une was looking out he window when he walked in. “Yuy, this isn’t good. Looks like there might be a small war in Asia. We have limited mobile suits, and from these supply lists, we might even be out numbered.” She let out a heavy sigh. “With out the gundams at all this will be a very taxing endeavor, financially and politically. Is there any way we can get Zero operational before this gets to out of hand?”

Heero contemplated this for moment. “Yes. There is.”

“Well? What do you have in mind?” Une asked surprised. She personally had wanted to order zero melted down for use in making better armor for their current suits.

“I need a space carrier and access the abandoned mobile suit factory on the moon.”

“Done. Get Zero ready for battle as soon as possible. I expect that this might turn things in our favor.” Une told him.

Heero left to go home and try to work on moving the rest of his belongings to the new house. When he walked up to his apartment, the door was open. On instinct he reached for his Pistol in his back holster. A young man was rummaging through a box on the floor. Heero replaced the firearm and slowly crept up on the man in his home. With precision and speed he wrapped his arm around the man’s neck and placed his other hand on the side of his head.

“What are you doing here? Who are you?” Heero looked side-to-side making sure he was alone.

Mariemeia walked in the door behind him. “Heero let go of him!” Heero let go. “He’s a friend from school. He’s helping us move.” She turned to the man. “Luke, are you alright? I’m sorry, I forgot to tell you he was coming home today.”

“It’s okay.” He said slightly choking. “I didn’t realize your boy friend was so protective.” He picked up the box and walked out the door. Mariemeia blushed as soon as he said ‘boyfriend’.

“I didn’t tell him we... I guess he just thought we were…” She paused. “Involved.” She stepped closer and wrapped her arms around him. She felt the bandage under his jacket and shirt. “What’s this?” She pushed his jacket off and felt the gauze through the cloth.

“Things got rough. It’s nothing.” His voice showed no sense of pain.

“Oh. Are you okay?” She asked genuinely concerned.

“Yeah, just a few bruises.” She picked up a box off the floor full of various items.

“Well, pick a box and bring it to the truck outside.” She kissed him briefly on the lips then left. Heero took a deep breath and picked up a box.


The house was beautiful with all the furnishings. It was warm and private. The neighbors weren’t to close, but not to far either. After they finished putting things away he sat down in one of the large recliners and closed his eyes. Things were going to be tough. With this terrorist group being equipped like an army and Mariemeia’s slight advancements, he wasn’t sure what was going on or going to happen.
