maybe the producers of Gundam Wing would like to swap….Dark Reflections-chapter 1
The awakening of the Evil Lord bought terror into the Earth. Friends and relatives of Dorothy Catalonia could not believe what happen to the innocent, ambitious, caring girl they once knew. She was now known as Black Lady.
The one responsible for the mass destruction.
The one that poured her soul into the Evil Lord.
"Wake up…wake up child…"
"Hn…"
" Goodness, hurry…we haven't got much time left…wake up"
A sleepy boy woke up and rubbed his eyes. He yawned as his little head hit the soft pillow again and drifts off back into his sleep.
The old man frowned as he popped his head outside the window.
She is coming. The dark storm cloud was coming closer. . He looked at the tiny figure underneath the blankets. He must not be found. If he is dead, the human race would be destroyed. He wrapped the little boy in blankets and put him into a basket. Carefully he touched the lad's cheek with his metal hand.
"Boy, I am going to miss you."
He was not the boys parent, or even his guardian. He was his mentor. The one that taught him everything.
He staggered outside with the basket, reaching the river; he carefully placed the basket on the babbling river.
"Remember boy, go to the Sanq kingdom. The world is counting on you."
The basket ran down the currant and rare tears fell from the old mans eyes.
Dr J wiped them as he walked back to his cabin, watching as the dark storm clouds come closer and closer….
The young boy that drifted to the village suddenly grew into a handsome man. His unruly hair obscured one deep blue eye. His masculine features made the women in the village turn their heads when he walk past. He did not care. He knows that now is his time to go to the Sanq Kingdom. He had a vague memory of Dr J telling him to go to the Sanq Kingdom. He must go; he couldn't let Dr J down. He will go to the Sanq Kingdom. He sharpened his sword and swung it around. He had no idea who this 'Evil Lord' that everyone feared was and this 'Black lady'. She must be someone strong, she killed his mentor.
He walked along the dry path. He had been through other villages and found houses on fire, families spilt up and stray children wondering about, looking for their parents. He turned and kept on walking.
"Black lady messed this village up bad."
He turned and saw a boy at his age sitting on a rock. His long a braid hung down the side of his shoulders and his violet eyes shone as he spoke.
"The people in this town has feared Black Lady for a long time. They are too scared to stand up and fight. That's why I'm here."
He hopped of the rock and took out his sword. "It's my duty to protect my village, even if I end up dying, it's worth it." He studied the other boy. "You look like you are ready to fight the Evil Lord, I know, you've got your self-a new friend. I'll go with you to fight the evil Lord."
"Suit your self. I have no interest in conversation, all I want to do is go to the Sanq Kingdom and destroy Black Lady."
"Fine by me."
***
The duo walked along the road. Heero learnt a few things about the other boy:
His name was Duo Maxwell.
He was an orphan and lives in the village to protect the civilians.
He was 17, the same age as him.
He has to get revenge for those she killed.
His favourite dish is steak pie.
Duo studied his comrade from the corner of his eye.
If he got to turn back time to find new allies, he would not pick this guy! This guy was not talkative, not at all! The words or sounds he's ever made were 'hn'.
Things that he learnt about him was:
His name is Heero Yuy.
…….
This guy won't say anything, and Duo was beginning to feel like talking to a wall. In the next town, he is going to find another soldier to join them, and to make conversation.
***
Heero made a fire while Duo went hunting…for food and allies. For days he was living on complete silent. He picked up his sword and swung to flex his muscles. A sudden movement caught his eye and he turned just in time to find a sword resting right beside his neck.
"Are you one of Black lady's?"The owner of the sword spoke in a quiet serious voice.
"So what if I am? Mind if I asked you??" Duo narrowed his eyes at this attacker. He was wearing a dark green hood over his face.
The warrior lowered his sword. "I am not one of Black lady's. And you"
"Not me, I am out to fight her."
The warrior nodded and turned to leave. Duo seized his arm.
"If we are out for the same target, why don't we do this together?"
"I can do this alone, I don't need your help." The warrior replied, turning to leave.
"That's what I think, but look at the Black lady, with our swords we cannot even touch her. Face it, we need help. We need to follow my friend and go to the Sanq Kingdom."
"Sanq Kingdom?"
"Yes, Heero is sure that if we go to the Sanq Kingdom, some one would be there to help us."
"Sanq Kingdom is a pacifist kingdom, the princess her self would not approve us fighting. She is a gentle soul, she would not like us out to hurt anyone."
"But the Black lady has killed thousands of people, I cannot stand by and watch as others die." Duo paused as he remembered Black Lady striking his village. "I have to stop her."
"I see, I should go with you then, to tell you the truth, I have to destroy the Evil lord for the sake of the Sanq Kingdom."
"Thank you…uh…" Duo gave frowned and bit his lip. He didn’t even know his name.
"Trowa, Trowa Barton."
"Thank you Trowa."
***
By the time the trio reached the next town, Duo was sure that he would do anything to try and make his allies talk. First it was hard to make Heero talk. Now it was harder (if that was possible) to make Trowa talk. Both of them are as silent as the stars.
Heero looked at his map." We should be very close to Sanq Kingdom, it should be just over the hill."
"Hey Trowa, could you give us some background information on it." Duo pipped in.
" The Sanq Kingdom is a magical Kingdom, the princess, Her Majesty Relena Peacecraft is a pacifist. The Kingdom is known for total pacifism."
"So this Relena Peacecraft is supposed to help us beat the Dark Lord?" Heero asked.
"If you are relying on a woman to beat the Dark lord, I suggest you rethink your strategy."
A boy spoke from the shadows. His jet-black hair was slicked back into a ponytail and his strong arms were crossed over his masculine body.
"What did you say?" Duo growled.
"I'll say it again, if you are relying on a woman you need to rethink what you are doing."
"Don't under estimate the power of Princess Relena Peacecraft." Trowa said, raising his quite voice.
"All women are weak, the battle field is not where they should be, especially against the Dark Lord."
Said the boy again.
"Who do you think you are, telling us what to do."
The boy held out his hand.
"My name is Wufei Chang, what the Dark Lord is doing now is injustice. I must stop him before anymore casualties have to suffer." The boy extended his arm out and the trio shook it.
Wufei nodded and turned to leave.
"Wufei, why don't you join us?"
"I'll think about it when the time comes." Then he disappeared in to the shadows.
"Strange people come and go." Duo sighed.
***
"I see it!" cried an over excited Duo.
"There it is, the Sanq Kingdom." Trowa said.
The Sanq Kingdom was a beautiful kingdom. Friendly looking villagers crowded the tidy streets.
"The castle is this way. Follow me." Trowa said.
Along the way, Heero wondered whom princess Relena Peacecraft was. Was she really that powerful? Then she must have a lot of power to be able to stop the Evil Lord.
"Now hold your sword up and follow my movements." A small girl held her sword out and clumsily tried to follow her teacher. She twirled and stumbled over.
The teacher knelt down and held out her hand.
"Nice try, now keep working on what I told you and soon you'll perfect it.'
Trowa applauded as the girl turned around.
"Still haven't changed a bit Hilde, you're still a great teacher."
"Trowa, oh my goodness, your back, and you still like to appear silently." Hilde said cheerfully, giving Trowa a big hug.
"Hilde, I've bought comrades who would help us defeat the Black Lady."He turned to Heero and Duo.
"This is Heero Yuy and Duo Maxwell."
Heero nodded and Duo, surprising enough was speechless. His jaws moved up and down but no sound was produced. Trowa and Heero stared at the usually talking soldier. This is weird.
Hilde however narrowed her eyes. What if these two are up to no good, what if they are here to kill the princess?
"Come this way." she said, walking down the street. The winding street ended in front of a giant castle. It was the biggest building they have ever seen. The wall was pure white with red roses winding up to the window.
"This way." Hilde directed.
Hilde led them into a small dungeon. The room was dark and Heero could just make out dim outlines of his comrades.
Suddenly, a high pitched scream echoed through Duo's mind. The dungeon was on fire and, at the middle of the room was Hilde.

OK, OK, I know, I know, this chapter was long and had no Heero or Relena in. Be patient and I promise all you little GW addicts that Heero and Relena will have close contact…soon.
OMG, I just realised a mistake I've made, whist reading the prologue of this story, I wrote Dorothy older than she is…does any one under stand?
OK, in this story, all the familiar GW are the same age. In the beginning of this chapter,(just to clarify) Heero is about 10 years old. So that means Dorothy would be 10…but Dorothy sounds old on thr prologue. GRRR what was I thinking!!!!!!!
Ok Peeps, now is your chance to hurl rotten fruit at me. I prefer mangos, kiwifruit, tomatos and very rotten apples...they are soft.
Ok, I 'know how to fix this mistake.
Dorothy is just very mature for her age.
Ryan, I promise you that your little Dorothy will appear more on the next chapter.
