"Hello?" she asked sleepily.
"Vice Forgien Minister, we need you to come down immediately--this cannot wait."
"I'll be there in twenty minuets," she said quckly.
"Thank you, the address is 13 Pennignton street."
Relena scribbled it down quickly.
"Alright thank you," she said and hung up. Pulling on slacks and a button down shirt, Relena slid into her blazer and then a long coat. Knowing the press this would be out and she would be swarmed--even at 3 am.
"Ms. Relena, your car is waiting," Pagen said leading her into the garage. He pulled open the door.
"Thank you," Relena said ducking inside. The car jerked foward and took off down the street, "The address is 13 Pennignotn street," she called.
"Are you sure Ms. Relena?" Pagen asked, puzzled.
"Yes," Relena said slowly, "Why?"
"13 Pennignton street is the mourge Ms. Relena," Pagen said turning the car onto another street.
Relena's heart began to pound and she was finding it hard to breath. When her car phone rang she jumped up with a small yell. Grabbing the phone she checked the number quickly.
Maxwell, D.
"Duo? It's not--"
"Just get down here," Duo's slightly choked voice said into the reciever.
"Are the others there?"
"Yeah, everyone's here but you," he said, his voice tight like he was holding back something.
"I'm right outside," Relena said hanging the phone up and walking out. She walked to the reception area.
"Hello, I'm Relena Peacecraft, I was called down," she said to the receptionist.
"Ah yes, please sign here."
Relena signed, her hands weren't shaking. In Duo's opinion she deserved an award for her acting skills and Relena was putting them to good use.
"Follow me," the woman stood up and led Relena down a hallway, "Your friends are in another room but we'd like you to have a look at the body first if you don't mind."
"Not at all," Relena said, her mind was screaming 'body?!'.
"Here we go," the woman led Relena to a room with a window. A few men came in with a gurney. Lying on it, was Heero.
Relena turned her eyes away. His forearms were slit and he was unnaturally pale--but then again, he was dead.
"Do you know that man?" the woman asked politely.
"Yes," Relena said taking a deep breath, "Yes I do."
"What's his name?"
"Heero Yuy," she said.
"Thats what your friend's said, this way," the woman led her into another room where Duo, Trowa, Wulfie, Quatre, Sally, Dorothy, Hilde, Cathrine, Millardo and Lucrezia were. Relena ran to her brother and hugged him tightly. He hugged her back.
Someone knocked on the door. Lucrezia went and opened it.
"I appologize for my lateness," Lady Une said, "My neice is staying with me. She's a heavy sleeper like Mariemaia."
All the Preventer's hid a smile, they couldn't image someone sleeping through Lady Une's commands.
"Midii, do we have to go in?" whispered Mariemaia, looking at her cousin who nodded sleepily.
"I'm sure they're not still angry," she said to Mariemaia who bit her lip but nodded, "Come on. Lets go inside."
They walked inside.
"Everything alright?" Une asked, they both nodded and took seats.
"Hi Midii," Quatre said smiling at the young girl. He turned to her cousin, "Hello Ms?"
"Midii Une," she said offering a hand. Quatre shook it warmly. Midii smiled, then froze like a deer in the headlights. Everyone stared as Trowa looked exactly the same way. He broke out of his stunned silence first and walked over, offering a hand.
"Trowa Barton, nice to meet you Midii Une," he said offering a hand. Midii shook it.
"The pleasure's all mine Mr. Barton," she said.
