A Locket Song

Disclaimer: Sigh Do I have to tell u? Don't own gundam wing! **** A/N: Okay first off I'm going to make all the other chapters longer and forgot to tell you that the song in the last chapter was not mine but it was Melfina's song in Outlaw Star. I was planning into using one of my own but couldn't think of one that would match with the story.

A Locket Song Chapter 7
By: Rei Tamashii
Sounds of the horses' hoofs galloping on the ground echoed endlessly in her ears but Relena stared blankly at the flashing scenery as they rode in a steady gallop pace. Relena didn't speak at all; she would only blink in response and hardly look anyone in the eye when they wanted to speak to her expect Heero. But he had in some way kept his distance and she would've guess because of her eyes. They've turned from their sea blue to deep crimson red since of her crying and her lack of sleep. She hadn't been able to sleep she kept seeing her grandfather's blood and seeing her stab him over and over that she couldn't bear to blink or sleep because she'd see a sword and blood.
Heero looked straightforward but his mind and heart ached because he wanted to see Relena but he couldn't. Those red eyes and her sad pale face. He had seen her when they were about to fall asleep. She was only asleep for five minutes and she woke up with a start and sat up and didn't do anything than. Heero had almost forced her to eat but she wouldn't even pry her lips apart. Heero felt a tight tug on his sleeve and he looked down and felt tingles in his chest as Relena rubbed her forehead roughly. Heero knew what she was thinking about.
Heero took one hand off the rein and patted her back comfortingly making her look up at him. Her eyes flashed and instantly they turned back to the same sea blue. She allowed a small smile to form on her lips before she blinked and her eyes turned red again. "Sleep." Heero whispered into her ear. She frowned. Heero allowed a small tiny smile to appear as he said, "Sleep. I promise you won't have bad dreams tonight."
Relena blinked again and she felt her blue eyes return as she asked innocently, "Promise?" When he nodded she sighed and slowly leaned her head in and closed her eyes.

Ora was a large village so they had to stay once more for another night. Relena was still making up her lack of sleep and would not let go of Heero so when the woman tried to pry Relena away, Heero would hold her tighter and Relena would about to wake if Heero wouldn't whisper in her ear that it was alright. Heero laid her in one of the bed and held her hands as she tossed once and slept soundly. She awoke at midnight with Heero's head resting on her stomach. She smiled and slowly took his head in her two hands and laid it softly on the bed as she wrapped herself in a cloak and stepped outside for some fresh air. Relena opened her locket and heard the soft music play.
'My magic is gone forever; so now what can I do to protect myself?' Relena asked herself. She closed her eyes and her mind flashed with old memories all that included her grandfather. Memories that contained gifts, potion making, and swordsmanship. Relena's eyes popped open. Swordsmanship. Was that the answer to her question?
Relena shook her head, her hair looked dark gold in the dark and her black cloak made her body seem as if it was a shadow. She could only bring out the sword by magic and without magic she was useless as well she did not believe in fighting. 'But if there is no other way, than I'll have to use the one thing I've always ignored using.' Relena sighed and looked down at the picture in her locket. 'I won't use it! There has to be another way!' Her mind screamed at her but Relena knew there might not be another way.
Her eyes flashed again and again they turned back to their normal sea blue. Her mother in the picture looked elegant and she wore pale make up to present a soft gentle face in the light. Her brother with short light blonde hair flaming out, his hair looking like silver blended with ivory. His eyes were thin yet they were the colors of her father's. However from what Relena could tell, she was more of her mother. Her father had the same color as her brothers and it was long, streaked with gray though in the light behind him it looked silver. His bread was gray with streaks of it's white and his eyes were a piercing dark blue unlike her mother's. She was thin and wore a small pale blue dress reaching to about four inches below her ankle. Her hair was almost brown and her eyes sea green. Relena could tell that maybe the traits in hair had mixed and that was why her hair was honey gold like as her grandfather had always told her of how her hair looked when she couldn't tell if it was blonde or brown when she was younger. Relena's sea blue eyes fell on the picture of herself as a small child, she was small and her eyes were the same with soft twinkles. She was smiling and in the light above her she looked completely innocent.
"Relena?"
Relena spun around to meet dark blue eyes, as dark as the raging seas at noon. Her almost purple hair was flapping over her face and she wore a pale wool gray cloak but Relena could tell that her friend was wearing a dark red simple gown. "Hilde!" She threw her arms around her friend. The friend she had before she moved. Relena had once lived in a small tiny village just outside the border of Japan and she had made only one friend. Hilde. They embraced for a long time and chatted softly under the moonlight. They asked questions like why they were here, and what had happened in the past. Relena's was most terrifying.
In the morning Relena had begged Hilde to come with her into the little house and meet everyone. What Relena found interesting was that Hilde took great interest into her other friend Duo.
"Okay, you two go outside and take your love making out there."
"Hey, Relena. You don't see me doing anything mushy like you and Heero over there do I?" Duo mocked. Relena blinked and her eyes turned red again. Relena held out a hand but nothing came out. Relena's face instantly fell.
"I forgot." She murmured. Duo sensing her eyes and all slapped her back and pushed her aside, "Hey don't worry, princess! Hey, I'll let you tease me later."
Relena's face perked up and she smiled and than said, "I won't tease you now, Duo." She punched him harder than he had ever slapped her in the back. "I'll kill you." She suddenly drew out a pair of sissors.
Duo screamed and ran out, clinging at Hilde by the waist dragging her with him so he can kiss her all he liked without anyone staring.
Relena giggled as she withdrew the scissors and laughed even harder. She had cut part of his hair, in fact one third of what it use to be. So now, Relena was guessing, Duo had only half of his braid. It use to be very long, almost dragging on the floor but by now it must've been down to his waist.
Heero looked at Relena and heard a soft musical laugh. He turned over to see Relena and saw her laughing. It brought a string of warmth in his heart one that he did not understand. But Heero smiled slightly at the thought that Relena was becoming more happier and almost forgetting the death of her grandfather. "Heero?"
Heero's head snapped as one of the daughters of the old lady they were staying at stare at him. She was about the same age as he was with dirty length blonde hair, her whole body reminded him completely of Relena. The girl in front of him, Sylvia was a bit richer than the others. Actually Sylvia very much did reminded him of Relena. Though Sylvia's hair did not look of gold and it was shorter, though she was thin she wore clothing that clung to her chest. Her eyes were sea green not like the endless pools of sea blue of Relena's. If Heero had to choose between them, he would've been lost because he didn't know whom he'd chose.
"Heero?" Relena's soft musical voice injected into his mind. That's right, Relena's voice was soft music unlike Sylvia's too girly voice. Relena had an angelic aru around her though Sylvia had only a small light frame though Heero thought Relena of more as an angel.
Heero blinked and made sure that he was seeing things correctly. Relena's eyes seemed different. They seemed happy and her face no longer pale and looked as if unshed tears were about to fall, she looked happy.
"What is it?" Heero asked, ignoring Sylvia who was standing right next to his left as Relena taking the right.
Relena smiled and asked, "Would you like to take a walk with me?" Heero spun around and saw that in Sylvia's eyes that she was disappointed that she could not be with him. Heero sighed mentally. Sylvia would only want to be close to him to marry him so she'd be famous and rich and to have a husband so handsome as he. For what reason did Relena want to be close to him? Heero had no idea but he couldn't care for he knew that Relena did not know he was the prince and knew she was not the kind to do such things as other girls.
"Sure." Heero took the hand Relena offered him and they grabbed their cloaks and walked. They watched as children threw snow at each other until one of them accidentally flung square into Heero's face. He growled and looked over to the little boy who threw it at him. Scared.
"I'm sorry, sire!" He shouted, hot fat tears springing into his face.
"Sire?" Relena questioned but before he could answer Relena rushed forward to the little boy.
"Oh don't worry. I was about to throw one at him too. But it looks like you already did it for me." Relena smiled at the young boy and he stopped crying and asked, "Really? You were about to throw one at the sire?"
Relena didn't notice how he addressed Heero but she nodded. Soon other children came pouncing towards Relena, talking and talking. Heero smiled.
She had such a large heart and so gentle. Really much like a angel. Another snow ball made it's way to his face. Heero wiped the snow off his face and heard Relena giggle as she tumbled back into the snow. However the children did not laugh. They looked scared.
Heero smirked. "You think that's funny, aye?" He made a snowball and threw it at Relena. She gasped and wiped the snow off her face quickly. "Oh Heero!" She said warningly. After a few minutes everyone was throwing snowballs at each other. The young maidens were with Relena while boys with Heero. They had only one target. Relena to Heero. Relena's favorite girl was a girl name Stacie who looked a lot like her though without the eyes and hair. But her face and her personality. Another snowball hitted her. "Got you!"
Relena flung her snowball at Heero. It hit him square in the face and the next thing Relena knew was that she was pinned to the snow with Heero heavily on top of her. Their eyes locked for a while until suddenly Heero got off of her.
