My Enemies, My Friends, My Love *Chap Prologue & 1*
Posted: Mon Jan 09, 2006 9:02 am
Ok, I was thinking of writing this fic for quite sometime but didn?t want to get into writing it until I had finished watching the whole series of GW. Now please don?t kill but there shall be an OC (original character) and canon character pairing. But not to worry, she shall not be paired up with Heero. I would never do such a thing?goes against everything I believe in in the HeeroXRelena pairing fandom.
Anywho, the setting takes place before and after the fall of the Alliance, Zechs conquest to destroy earth, the Mariemaia incident, and trouble hereafter. This is to be a long fic?if it becomes extremely long I may have to pull a JRR Tolkien and break the story into two stories or three.
Ah, yes as a forewarning?instead of making separate threads for different chapters, I?m just going to combine all the chapters into one big thread. That way it will be easier for the readers to find the chapters should I be slow in updates.
Oh, and to let you know?this is a WIF (What If Fic) so certain changes to the original plot of GW may change. I am also changing the ages of the pilots during the series. Instead of being 15, I?m having them be 17?because it makes a little more sense to me?15 looks rather young to be a pilot and in the fact that most guys don?t hit puberty in liking girls until at least 16. Most anyway?please don?t hurt me! Remember this is ?what if?.
And one last thing, PLEASE give FEEDBACK after reading a chapter. You don?t know how frustrating it is when you see that people have read your story but don?t put down feedback. I will accept constructive criticism, just be nice! No flames, please. ;
Warnings: I am rating this as R to be on the safe side?it could turn into NC-17. This is a very dark story that contains sexual content, possible rape (haven?t decided?don?t worry?none of our canon characters are gonna commit that, put the gun down!), and a possible romancy lemon.
Disclaimer: I do not own GW or any of the canon characters. The only characters I own are my own original characters that I have created. However, the members of BI may use these OCs in RPGs, fanfics, fanart or other fan based goodies as long as they PM and ask me nicely to do so.
Duo: Geeeeez?that was one long fic!
Heero: Baka?the story hasn?t even started yet!
Duo: O_O Really?
Heero: *sighs* Baka?
Quatre: Please continue with your wonderful story, Miss Halfangel.
Duo: *cough*Suckup*cough*
Heero: *pulls his braid*
Duo: ow.
My Enemies, My Friends, My Love

Prologue
A.C. 192
?General Perkins, how nice to see you again.? A tall and very aristocratic young man said to a man with dark hair and green eyes and dressed in the Alliance?s General uniform.
The dark haired man smiled. ?It is good to see you again as well, Your Excellency.?
The man named Treize gave a small smile. He was tall with fair features. He had piercing light blue eyes and ginger colored hair. He wore a dressy blue jacket with a cloak draped on one shoulder, long white trousers, tall black boots that were polished with care and spotless white gloves at his hands.
General Perkin?s uniform was quite similar only his was an olive green color, making his eyes look even greener. Like Treize, he was also very handsome, but with darker features and had more of a boyish look to him when he smiled, making him look younger than being in his late 30?s.
Treize looked at the woman with her hand at Drake?s elbow. ?Ani, it is a pleasure.? He said, taking the woman?s dainty hand to his lips and kissing it.
?Likewise, Mr. Treize.? She said, gently shaking his hand. ?It has been too long.?
?Indeed.?
A young girl that looked about fourteen, with long auburn hair past the shoulder looked up at the Commander, her aquamarine eyes staring up at him curiously. She knew she should remember this man?but couldn?t somehow.
Treize took notice of the girl and leaned down slightly. ?Now don?t tell me?that this is little Ashily Perkins!?
The girl?s eyes widened slightly at the mention of her name. ?I?I am??
Treize smiled. ?It really has been a long time since I?ve seen your family, General. Why?your daughter was this tall the last time I saw her.? Treize said, leveling his hand an inch or so above his knee.
Ashily looked at Treize, looking even more confused and looked back at her parents as if asking, ?Who is this man??
Her father, Drake gave a slight nod of understanding to his daughter and gave Treize an apologetic smile. ?My dearest apologies, Excellency?but I am afraid my daughter doesn?t recognize you??
Treize nodded giving out a soft laugh. ?Most understandable?Ashily was only a tiny child the last time I saw her. Forgive my manners, Miss Ashily?but I am Colonel Treize Khushrenda, leader of OZ, your father?s employeer.?
?Oh?? Ashi said, eyes lighting in recognition.
?Again, forgive my daughter?it is my fault. I like to keep what goes on in my job private.? Drake explained.
?No need to explain, Drake?I am just delighted to see the whole family again. As I matter of fact, I have a new recruit that is just about 4 years older than Ashily here. I was hoping that they could become acquainted.?
?That would be lovely.? Ani said. ?We?ve been moving from colony to colony, it makes it rather hard for Ashi to keep close friends.?
Ashily looked away, suddenly feeling very uncomfortable. This was an uncomfortable situation, indeed. First being crammed in a room full of influential people that she doesn?t even recognize?and then the leader of the whole organization making her feel like she?s being observed under a microscope.
Why does he keep on staring at me? I hope this ?recruit? person is here?this man is really making me feel uncomfortable.
?Excuse me?Sefon?could you come over here for a moment? I have a few people I would very much like you to meet.?
Sefon?
?Yes, Your Excellency.? A smooth, deep, masculine voice said.
Ashily looked up at the soft sound of booted heels clicking on the floor. Walking towards her was a young man appearing at the age of 18. The boy was tall with long black hair tied loosely, a few stands of hair framing his face. He had dark eyes that intimidated even the most elite of the Alliance troops. His frame was lean and muscular that wasn?t easily hidden by the flashy red OZ uniform.
The young man stood beside Treize, standing tall in attention position with his hands behind his back. ?At ease?Cadet Sefon.?
The young nodded and allowed his body to relax. Treize motioned toward Sefon. ?Sefon, I would very much like you to meet some dear friends of mine.? He motioned towards Drake. ?This is Drake Perkins, General of the American faction of the Alliance on colony L2.?
?It?s?It?s an honor to finally meet you, sir.? Sefon said, shaking the General?s hand enthusiastically. ?I?ve heard so much about you.?
Drake smiled. ?All good?I hope.?
Treize then smoothly motioned to Ani, ?And this is his lovely wife, Ani.?
?Charmed, Madame.? Sefon said, shaking her hand.
Ani smiled and giggled. ?I judge by your accent that you are French, correct??
?Oui, Madame Perkins.? Sefon replied in his rich accent, while letting out a little laugh.
?And this?? Treize said, looking at Ashily. "Is?"
?This must be your beautiful daughter, Ashily Perkins, Monsieur Perkins. I must say?are you sure she?s your daughter?or an angel in disguise??
Ashily rolled her eyes. Oh brother?is this guy for real
Drake gave his daughter a stern look, showing her that she had better behave. Ashily straightened up and pasted on her most charming smile. Being a General?s daughter, she was always taught to be polite and tolerant?even to the most annoying of people. It was in this particular situation that Ashily knew she had to use such behavior. She didn?t like this young man. ?She didn?t like him at all.
?Uh, hi?? she said, getting ready to shake his hand.
Sefon gently pulled her hand close to his lips. ?Enchante (Delighted), Mademoiselle Ashily??
He put her hand to his lips and gently kissed it. Drake cleared his throat. ?So, how long were you a recruit, Sefon??
Sefon gave the shortest of glares, but then smiled. ?Not even six months, Monsieur.? He said with a little laugh.
?However?? Treize jumped in. ?He is quite the expert with the mobile suits.?
?Hmmm?perhaps one day?he and I should duel.? Ashily said, her voice half teasing, half challenging.
?Ashi!? Drake chided.
Ashi put a hand to her lips. ?I?I?I mean??
Treize cocked an eyebrow. ?You never told me your daughter knew how to use mobile suits??
?She?doesn?t.? Ani said, a look of slight fear in her eyes.
Treize looked at Ashi while lightly rubbing his chin. ?Now?don?t be teasing me, Ani.?
?She knows nothing of mobile suits, Excellency. I assure you. Isn?t that right, Ashi dear??
Ashi nodded. ?Ah?y-yes?of course.? She said, letting out a shaky laugh. ?Just a little joke.?
Ashi did a little curtsie. ?E-excuse me?? she said, rushing off, her dress flowing around her as she left.
Sefon watched Ashi go, and smiled. He turned to Treize and saluted. ?Permission to be excused, sir.?
Treize nodded. Sefon smiled and saluted, he then walked out of sight, leaving the three alone.
Drake put a hand to his wife?s waist. ?Darling?why don?t you go over and mingle around the refreshment table? There is something I would like to discuss with the Colonel.?
Ani bit her lip, looking she was about to protest but nodded. ?Yes, dear?? She too was gone, leaving the General and the Colonel alone.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Ashi?s fingers curled around the edge of the balcony while she tried to calm her breathing. Why couldn?t I have just kept my big mouth shut? Father warned me to never speak of it?I had always kept my mouth shut about it?until now. What?s going to happen
?Enjoying a breath of fresh air are we, Mademoiselle??
Ashi let out a tiny cry of surprise, turning around; her back braced against the balcony for support, her heart racing.
Sefon smiled, the moonlight shining down on his hair, the wind teasing at his stray strands framing his face.
Treize Khushrenda?and Sefon?both looked like princes from a fairy tale. Both frightened every fiber of her being. She will never forget the strange gleam in Treize?s blue eyes when she had challenged Sefon. Sefon?s eyes were just unnerving to her.
?I am sorry?did I frighten you?? Sefon asked, grinning showing off white teeth.
Ashi?s heart hammered against her chest in fear. ?P-Please?? she said in a begged whisper.
Sefon cocked his eyebrow in amusement. ?Please what, Ashi? If you want me to please you?I will not refuse.? He said with a horrible smirk, his eyes even more penetrating. ??But, don?t you think you?re a little young to get involved in that?? he said in a laugh.
That laugh caused every nerve in Ashi?s body to tremble, her breathing coming in gasps.
?The idea pleases you, Ashi?? Sefon asked, stroking his thumb down her cheek gently.
?No!? Ashi screamed, slapping his hand away. ?Leave me alone!?
?Mmmm?feisty. I like that trait when it comes to young meat?if you know what I mean.?
Ashi threw her hand back and slapped Sefon across the face. ?Don?t you ever speak to me in that way again, you repulsive, little worm!? she screamed.
With one last glare at the French recruit, Ashi ran from the balcony, picking up the hem of her dress so not to fall.
Sefon smirked as he rubbed the burning sting where Ashi had hit him. ?Hehe?very nice, Ashi. But I don?t give up quite that easily. You?re too tasty a treat to let go. Don?t think this is the last time we?ll ever meet.?
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
?I?m telling you?the answer is no! Absolutely not! My daughter in no circumstances is going to work for OZ or the Alliance!? Drake said, his eyes flashing with anger.
?You don?t seem to understand; General?your daughter would be quite the asset to either organization. The General and his daughter?working side by side to ensure peace, isn?t that a beautiful picture?? Treize said.
?I said no, and that is final! My daughter will never work to where her innocent eyes have to view death! She has never witnessed the horrors of war?and I do not intend for her to ever see it! This discussion is closed, Colonel!? Drake said, clenching his fists.
Treize sighed. ?That?s a shame. I am sorry you feel that way.?
?If you?ll excuse me, Your Excellency.? Drake said, making the words ?your excellency? in a sarcastic tone as he walked away from the Colonel.
?Father! What is wrong? You look so angry.? Ashi said, walking up to her father.
Drake grabbed her hand. ?Find your mother, we are leaving at once!?
?Y-yes, Father.? Ashi said, rather confused of what happened.
But even in her confusion, Ashi was relieved. But her relief turned to anxiety when she looked over her shoulder and saw Treize looking at her. He gave her a little smile, nodded and walked away.
What happened? What did he say to Father
As they were leaving, Ashi silently prayed that she would never see Treize nor Sefon ever again.
O_O Geez?this may not look it?but that was a long chapter to type down. And it was nearly 1 am when I had finished. I hope you liked it, everyone. I know I probably didn?t get Treize?s personality right?but his personality is really complex. So please bear with me.
Quatre: Sefon is scary!
Indeed he is. Anyway, R&R folks. And remember?no flames, kay?
Quatre: Flames are scary.
Anywho, the setting takes place before and after the fall of the Alliance, Zechs conquest to destroy earth, the Mariemaia incident, and trouble hereafter. This is to be a long fic?if it becomes extremely long I may have to pull a JRR Tolkien and break the story into two stories or three.
