Gundam Wing: Crisis - 13/18 - The Collar and the Girl
Posted: Fri Apr 04, 2003 2:04 pm
The group of friends continue down the road when they hear a newscast in the distance. "This just in! After the latest peace meeting, Senator Lee's car has exploded while leaving. Him and his driver have not been found and are presumed dead. The other politicians have been kept form leaving until all their vehicles have been checked."
"This can't be good."
"It must be the KioDawn Alliance again."
"We gotta get back and see if Milliardo is okay."
Mr. Lee and Katsumi watch the report of his so-called death. "Sir, it looks like your plan is going great."
"Yes it is. Now I won't have to worry about being one of those stupid politicians. I can finally work on my true destiny, my revenge on Relena Peacecraft."
The Collar and the Girl
Reli sits at a table in the kitchen stirring her soup with her spoon. Duo, Trowa and Quatre watch her from the doors. ?Why does she look so sad?? Duo asks.
?I don?t know why. Maybe it?s just that she?s been going through a lot lately,? Quatre replies.
?Maybe. Why don?t you try to cheer her up Quatre? Duo and I have to go and talk to Sally about something.?
?Okay. I?ll try.? Quatre walks in as Duo and Trowa walk down the hallway.
?So, what does Sally want to talk to us about Trowa??
?Something about Reli and that necklace she?s wearing. She may have figured out what it?s all about.?
?Do you mind if I sit here??
?Go ahead.? Quatre sits across from Reli and stirs his tea. He looks at Reli frowning and watching her soup in silence.
?So Reli, how have you been lately??
?Okay. I guess. You??
?I?m fine Reli. But I?m really worried about you.?
?Why? I said I was fine.? She props her arm on the table and rests her head in her hand.
?But you don?t look fine.?
"I guess, I'm just worried about Heero and this whole war."
"There's nothing to be worried about. Everything is going to turn out just fine." He takes a sip of his tea and looks straight at her.
"But what about Heero? He was supposed to go and fight for this girl he loves, but now he's part of the enemy." Reli returns the glance.
"You don't have to worry about Heero. The girls told us about when you confronted him adn how much he was affected. I bet by now he's fighting, trying to help her out."
"Then why hasn't he come to us?" She puts her soup spoon down adn pays more attention to Quatre.
"Heero works alone most of the time. Also, when he does something wrong, he usually won't come to us until he forgives himself. I bet that will be real soon," Quatre replies, taking another sip of his tea.
"Yeah. IF he's as strong as I think he is, he'll be fine." She smiles and starts to eat her soup.
?Order whatever you want. I?m treating,? Katsumi tells Heero as they sit at an outdoor cafe on one of the colonies. She looks at her menu as Heero keeps his shut.
?I?ll just have water. I?m not that hungry.? She looks away from the menu for a second and then returns.
?Okay then.?
?Why did you want me out here??
?I want to get to know you. You?re a pretty special guy and I was just wondering about what you?re like.? She closes her menu as well and gently puts it down on the table.
?There?s nothing interesting about me. I just fight.? He takes a drink of water.
"Come on. There's always something interesting about a person. What do you do?" She crosses both of her hands on the table.
"I fight."
"How about outside of work? Like I go and dance. Hey! You should come with me dancing. It would fun." She looks straight at him with her wide eyes, smiling.
"I don't dance. I'm supposed to fight, so I fight," Heero replies stoically.
Duo adn Trowa walk into the medical bay where they see Sally typing on the computer. ?So Sally, what did you want to talk to us about?? She jumps and turns around, then breathes a sigh of relief.
?Duo, you scared me. Now about the information. I have some new information on Reli?s collar. It seems that it is some kind of control device, except that right now it isn?t fully functional.?
?What do you mean?? Trowa asks.
?Who ever took Reli put the collar on her to control her. That?s where her different persona came from. They brainwashed her into thinking that she was a little girl so they could manipulate her. That?s when her collar was on only partially. When it?s on full, it seems that someone could control her emotions and what she thinks. I think that?s how she was able to battle Heero that time.?
?So it helps her become a really good soldier.?
"That's right Duo."
?Why do you say now that it isn?t fully functional??
?Well Trowa, she still has the personality of the child, but certain parts of her collar don?t seem to work anymore.?
?Because if it did, the enemy could have taken control of her already again.?
?But what about how she knew the plans and how to battle when we were doing tests on her??
?She probably still remembers things from on board and as for the tests, all I can think of is that she remembers fighting....?
?Or maybe the collar is also connected with her gundam I think I have an idea,? Trowa replies as he heads for Sally's computer.
?Milliardo, what?s wrong?? Noin asks him in their limo as they return back to NeoPeacemillion from another conference.
?Nothing.?
?It?s about Relena isn?t it?? He puts his briefcase on his lap and sighs.
?Why is she like this? And why does everyone want to keep her like that??
?It?s for the best right now. Reli knows a lot of things about the enemy and that?s to our advantage. Once everything?s done, we?ll get her back to normal.?
?But I want her back to normal now.?
?I hoped you enjoyed the meal,? Katsumi tells Heero as they return to the ship.
?It was nice. Thank you, but know I need to go and work on my gundam.? He walks away from her quickly without looking back.
?That boy is so strange. Normally a man couldn?t resist me, but him. How can he resist me? Does he still love the vice foreign minister?? She asks herself as she watches Heero walk away.
Duo and Trowa decide to conduct a little experiment with Reli and her collar, but things go wrong and now Quatre and Wufei get tied up in the secret. Meanwhile, the enemy makes an announcement saying that he wishes Relena Peacecraft dead and will do anything to get his way. Zechs finally realizes who the man behind the shadows really is. Next time on Gundam Wing: Crisis- The Enemy?s Revealed.
*I haven't come out with one in a long time. (Rapidfire shakes her head up and down). But this is one of those chapters that you need to understand what's going on. Alrighty then, keep reviewing adn check out my site.
