Chapter Two : Broken Shards of Glass
P.S.: I don’t own Gundam Wing.
“Ok, buddy, can you explain what’s happening?!” asked a furious Duo. They were in the preventer’s quarters, in a secluded room. Quatre was sitting on a chair, his face low and sad. Trowa had been called and was also there. Wufei had left that room some seconds before, to hear Colonel Une’s orders on the matter.
Heero sighed once more and stared at Duo’s violet eyes. They were wide with fury and he could also see disbelief in them. Wasn’t he the perfect soldier? Then how come he had let the enemy capture the princess, the symbol of peace ? He didn’t know either.
“There is a new enemy around. They want to kill her I believe.”
“What else?”
“I don’t know.”
Duo raised an eyebrow and shot him a glare. Did Heero change that much that he couldn’t even find out who the enemy was?
“Ok, let’s start this all over again. How did you discover this information?”
“I received an email two days ago.”
“’And you haven’t hacked that email down?”
“Of course I did! But, all I could find was that it was sent by someone at Relena’s headquarters. From Sanq Kingdom.” Finished Heero. Now everyone was staring blankly at him, unable to utter a word. A spy? A betrayal? Was someone of Sanq Kingdom plotting against peace? It was impossible! But Heero had said that, so it must be true. A conspiracy...the situation had darkened quickly and probably, if they didn’t finish with this soon, a new war would explode and they would have to fight again. They would have to kill and meet death once more.
“What are we going to do?” asked a sad Duo.
“Wait and see what Une’s going to say”, was all Heero told them. Quatre watched Heero silently stand against the wall on a corner of the room, letting the shadows obscure his figure. Trowa, on the other hand, simply closed his eyes. His features were serene, although his inner side was in a turmoil. And Quatre knew the reason. After all those years watching and studying his friend, he finally had reached the truth and the secret of his beloved friend. He was in love with the an impossible person. Relena Peacecraft.
Yes, let’s wait for Wufei and Colonel Une...They will know what to do...But for now, we’ll just wait and see...
~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”
Wufei was standing in Colonel Une’s office. She was sitting on her chair right behind her desk full of papers. She was breathing very slowly, trying to concentrate on her task. The princess was gone, there was no clue of what had happened, and from what Heero had told her previously, without the presence of his fellow gundam pilots, there was this new enemy around craving for war. ‘It was just great,’ he thought sarcastically.
“I...I don’t know what to do.” She stated simply to him. He stared at her face, showing no emotion. Then he replied, “Shall we send groups of preventers to the kidnap local ?”.
“Yes, but just a small group. We musn’t call attention.”
“Of course. I’ll see for that.”
“Wufei, tell the others that...no, wait, call them to come here. I want to talk to them. You are the only gundam pilot that is a preventer.You know what you have to do. The others must be lost. I’ll see what I can do.”
He nodded and proceeded to reach the room where the other pilots were. He didn’t have very good news to tell them.
~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~
“Mommy! Look what I did! Isn’t it beautiful?” asked a small and young Relena of five years old. A blond woman waited for the girl on the Palace door, a smile tugging at her sweet features.
“Oh my, Relena, it is indeed beautiful! Where did you find all these flowers to prepare this bouquet?”
“Oh, I went over there, see? There are many more pretty flowers like this over there, do you wanna come?”
“I’d love to. But, first you have a class to attend.”
“Oh please mommy, I don’t want to have these classes! They are boring!”
The woman laughed at her daughter’s na?veness and hugged her. The little girl also returned the hug, smelling her mom’s sweet fragrance and loving all of it. Oh, how she loved her! Then, her mom’s figure started to disappear. She clung to it, but it was uselles. Soon, darkness enveloped her, and she found out that she had tears in her eyes.
It was dark. She couldn’t see a thing. Then, a small light appeared at the other side of the place. She ran towards it. When she got nearer, she saw him. Heero. The light was emanating from his body and he had beautiful angel wings on his back. She watched in awe as he offered his hand. He was offering her support? She flew to his arms, eager to meet his him. She was so happy that she wouldn’t mind if the world ended right there. Suddenly, those same arms that were giving her support started to tight around her. He was hurting her! She tried to free herself from him, but he was too strong. The battle finished as quickly as it had started.
Her body broke down like shards of glass.
“NO!!!!!” She cried out. She was panting, sweat covered her face and she looked very fragile. She set a hand on top of her chest, right above where her heart lay. She closed her eyes. She was feeling so miserable...
Then, she shot out of the bed where she was in. She looked at her surroundings. It seemed that she was in a room. A dark one. There were no windows, the only light of the place was from the small lamp hanging on the ceiling. There was a chair in the corner, a table and that was all. She sighed, fear starting to take control over her body.
Calm down Relena, everything’s going to end up just fine. Believe it.
There was a plate and a glass of water on the table that she hadn’t noticed before. There was a cheese sandwich on the plate. She wasn’t very hungry but she did drink some water. Her throat was so dry that it was killing her. Now that she was there, all that was left for her to do was wait. Would they kill her? Or maybe torture her? She didn’t know. But, she wouldn’t mind to die, not when she knew Heero didn’t love her as well.
...Heero...
Tears started to form in her eyes, but she wiped them away before they could threaten to fall and wet her cheeks. She wouldn’t cry for him. Not anymore.
I’m strong. I don’t need him. Everything’s going to be fine.
~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~”~
A young man of apparently twenty years old was reading the newspaper. He had a strange smirk on his lips. Another man approached him.
“So, Richard, how’s everything? Is she fine?” asked the young man. He was tall, had light blond hair and icy green eyes. His skin was very pale and he looked quite amused that day.
“Everything’s going on as you have wished, Mr. Kettering” , replied the other man. This one had raven black hair and astonishing beautiful grey eyes. “But she has already awoken, sir. Shouldn’t we kill her?”
“No, we need her alive. And, besides that, I have other plans for her.”
“Really? May I know these ‘other plans’?”
“Hmm, maybe later. Have you already called Dr. Stevenson?”
“No, why? You seem to be quite healthy, sir.”
“Oh, it’s not for me. It is for the princess. By the way, Richard, stop calling me sir or mister. We are friends, remember?”
Richard quirked an eyebrow. Relena Peacecraft was their host, why should it be necessary to call for a doctor? After all, she was their main obstacle till then, it would even be best if she were dead. But it seemed that his boss and friend of childhood had a different opinion.
“Richard, tell me, do you believe in angels?”
“No, Derek. I don’t believe in God, so I don’t believe in angels either.”
“Well, but you’ve already heard some stories about them, right?”
“Yes, if you mean, for instance, the angel Gabriel who was sent by God to tell Mary that she was pregnant of God’s son.”
“Well, yes, sort of that. Actually, I was thinking about the story of the ‘fallen angel’. Have already heard of this one?”
“Satan, you mean?”
“Why, yes.”
“Yes, I know the story. May I ask you why we are talking about this?”
“Well you see my dear friend, I want to make an experience. I want to see with my own eyes the falling of an angel.”
Now, that dialogue was really strange, Richard thought. Angels? What was he talking about? But, he knew him better. Derek Kettering was a very rational and same person. If he did want to see that, an angel falling, then he would.
“May I know how?” asked Richard.
Derek closed the newspaper, turned his head to see if there was anyone there and whispered...
“I want to see Relena Peacecraft killing a person with her own hands.”
A/N: Finally, this chapter is done. Sorry for the delay, and I’m also sorry for my spelling mistakes on the first chapter. I’m trying my best, and thanks a lot for the reviews. They were very encouraging and I feel very happy that you’re all enjoying reading it. By the way, I would like to thank Angeldreams who is beta-reading this story. Thanks Angeldreams! You’re the best ^^. Okay, so that’s all for now.
