Quatre was driving back from the grocery store. He was driving Duo's
car because his car was in the shop and it was the least the Deathscythe
pilot could, considering he was the one who ate a majority of the food
in the house. He had also promised Quatre that while he was at the store
he would pick up his car.
The blond came to a fork in the road, when a speeding car crashed into
the left side of Duo's car. The impact of the crash caused him to hit his
head on the steering wheel. He passed out.
He came to about a minute later, blood streaming down the middle of
his forehead. He wiped away the blood, got out of the car and began to
walk up the street.
Noin was driving up the street. She Quatre struggling to walk and decided
to pull over She rolled down the passenger side window, "Quatre, do you
want a ride?"
He looked at her, "Huh?"
Noin looked at him in shock as she watched the blood trickled down his
face, "Oh god I've got to get you to a hospital." She opened the door,
"Get in..."
He did as requested and got in the car. Noin made sure he got in all
right and drove to the hospital.
The other four pilots were watching TV in the living room waiting for
Quatre to return.
Duo began to pace, "Man, when's Quatre going to get back with the food?!
I'm starved..."
"Well you would be starved if you didn't everything. You've got learn
not to pig out so much." Heero gave him an evil glare.
The phone began to ring. WuFei walked over and picked up the receiver,
"Hello?"
"Hello. Is Mr. Maxwell there?"
"Yes, he is, hold on a minute." He looked at the longhaired pilot, "You've
got a phone call."
He took the phone from the Chinese boy, "Hello?"
"Hello Mr. Maxwell, this is Officer Kurai. I regret to inform you that
your car was involved in an accident."
Duo's eyes widened, "What?"
"We need you to identify the driver."
"Sure I can identify him, but why?"
The officer sighed, "The driver was not in the vehicle. He must of gotten
out and walked somewhere. Can you identify him?"
Duo took a deep breath, "The driver was Quatre Raberba Winner."
"Thank you for your time, Mr. Maxwell." He hung up the phone.
Trowa looked at the American boy, "What about Quatre?"
He hung up the phone and looked at his fellow pilots, "Quatre was in
a car accident..."
"What?!" Trowa was horrified
Heero sighed, "This isn't good. If anyone from OZ finds him, we're screwed."
The salutary dragon looked at the Japanese boy, "What about that female
OZ soldier?"
"Noin is no longer with OZ, but even so, we've got to find him."
"Let's check the hospital and see if he's there." Trowa suggested
Duo nodded in agreement, "We can use Quatre's car."
They all agreed and headed for the car. They piled in and drove to the
hospital.
They arrived at the hospital a half hour later. They parked the car
in the parking lot, got out and walked into the hospital. They walked up
to the receptionist.
Trowa looked at her, "Excuse me..."
She looked up from her computer and looked at the four boys, "May
I help you?"
"Yes, is Quatre Raberba Winner here?" Duo asked
She typed the name into the computer, "I'm sorry, there's no one here
by that name."
The green eyed pilot looked at the floor and put his hand to his heart,
"Quatre..."
Duo looked at Trowa, then back at the receptionist, "Were there any
people that came in today?"
"Yes, there were some people who came in today, but none of them went
by that name." She flipped through some files, "We have a 'John Doh'."
WuFei stepped in front the Deathscythe pilot and glared at the women,
"Listen to me women! We are looking for Quatre Raberba Winner. Not some
jackass named John Doh!"
Trowa lifted his head, "Calm down, WuFei. John Doh is a name they use
in hospitals to identify people with amnesia."
The women nodded, "That's right. This might be the person you're looking
for."
Heero looked at her, his face somewhat kind, "Can we see this patent?"
'Amazing, he's actually concerned.' Duo thought
She nodded, "Let me page the doctor." She picked up the telephone receiver
and pressed the page button, "Dr. Ame, please report to the reception desk.
Dr. Ame, please report to the reception desk. Thank you." She hung up the
phone
"This place sounds like a K-Mart(TM)." The longhaired boy whispered
to Heero
Heero glared at him, "This is a place for the sick and the injured.
You shouldn't be joking around, Duo."
"Sorry..."
About two minutes later a tall women walked up to the reception desk.
She looked at the receptionist, "You paged me?"
The receptionist looked at her, "These four young men would like to
see the 'John Doh'."
The doctor approached the four boys, "I'm Dr. Ame. Could you please
tell me why you want to see this patient?"
"Very funny. Where's the real doctor?" WuFei chuckled
"I am the real doctor."
The salutary dragon looked confused, "You?! You can't be the doctor,
you're a woman. You should leave this to a man and go paint your nails
or something."
Dr. Ame gave him a death glare, "My, aren't we big for our britches?"
"You're just lucky I don't hurt women." He snarled
She looked at the other three boys, "Could you please tell me why you
would like to see this patient?"
Duo looked her in the eye, "I received a phone call from a police officer.
He said that my car was in a car accident. The driver was one of our best
friends and he wasn't in the car when they checked. We were hoping he was
here."
"It's good to see that you're concerned about your friend's safety.
I'll let you see this patient, but you'll have to look at him through
a window looking into his room." She smiled, "Alright?"
They nodded in agreement.
"Follow me." She lead the four boys to the patient's room.
They stopped in front of the room. Dr, Ame looked at the pilots, "Here
he is."
The four G-boys looked in the window. Trowa's eyes widened, "Quatre!"
Quatre slowly opened his eyes. He tried to sit up, but then realized
he was strapped down to the bed. He looked at the nurse, "Why am I tied
down like this? Did I do something wrong?"
The nurse sat on the edge of the bed, "No, you did nothing wrong. You're
tied down like that because we don't want you to hurt yourself."
The Arabian pilot looked around the room, then back at the nurse, "Why
am I beeping?"
"You're not beeping." She smiled, "The beeping is coming from the machines
that you're hooked up to."
"Okay..." he blinked for a moment, "Why am I wearing a dress?"
She giggled, "It's not a dress. It's a hospital gown. All the patients
wear them."
Dr. Ame looked at the four boys, "So this is your friend..."
The long banged pilot looked at the floor, "It can't be Quatre can't
have amnesia..."
"Can we go talk to him?" Duo asked
She nodded, "Yes, but you can't tell him who he is until we the test
results back."
"Can we tell him who we are?" WuFei questioned
"Yes." She opened the door to Quatre's room and looked at the nurse,
"Nurse Kawa, these four boys would like to speak with this young man."
She smiled, "Alright."
The doctor looked at the four boys, "Go right on in." she walked passed
them and went into her office.
They entered the blonde's room. Duo smiled at the pilot of Sandrock,
"Quat-" he started, but was elbowed in the stomach by Heero.
He glared at the American pilot, "We can't tell him who he is."
Quatre started to shake. Trowa saw him and approached the bed, "Are
you all right?"
Quatre started to shake even more, "Stay away from me!"
"Huh?" the long banged pilot could only stare in disbelief
Nurse Kawa looked at Quatre, "What's wrong?"
She followed the Arabian's gaze. She walked up to Heero and Trowa, "You
two need to leave. You're scaring him."
Tears started to well up in Trowa's eyes, "But..."
"I'm sorry. Please leave."
Heero and Trowa left the room. WuFei helped Duo to his feet and walked
over to Quatre's bed.
Quatre looked into Duo violet eyes, "Are you all right? That guy hit
you pretty hard."
"I'm fine. It's nothing I can't deal with." He groaned
The blond looked at the Chinese pilot, "Who are you guys?"
"My name's WuFei Chang."
"WuFei?" he looked at the Deathscythe pilot, "What's your name?"
He smiled, "I'm Duo. Duo Maxwell."
"Duo?" he looked confused, "How about the other two?"
Duo sighed, "Well the one who hit me is Heero Yuy."
"Heero?"
WuFei nodded, "That's right and the guy with the uni-bang is Trowa Barton."
"Trowa?" he shut his eyes tightly, "My head it hurts..."
WuFei put his left hand on Quatre's head, "It's okay. Don't try to remember.
Right now you need to rest."
Quatre opened his eyes and looked at the salutary dragon, "Huh?"
WuFei gave the Arabian a small smile, "You need to rest your body and
mind right now. Please try to get some rest and we'll see you later."
The blond sighed, shut his eyes and fell asleep. Duo looked at the nurse,
"Please take good care of him."
She smiled, "I'll do all I can until you take him home."
WuFei and Duo left the room and walked into the waiting room. Heero
saw them emerge from the hallway. He looked at Duo, "How is he?"
"He has no clue what so ever."
Tears began to stream down Trowa's face, "Quatre..." he buried his face
in his hands
Dr. Ame emerged from the hallway and walked u to the four pilots, "I
got the test results back and there seems to be no other problems aside
from the amnesia. I also spoke to Nurse Kawa. She said that two of you
were scaring him?"
Duo sighed, "yeah..." he pointed to Heero and Trowa, "And they would
be the suicide boy and the uni-bang bomber."
She looked at the two boys, "Since he is afraid of you two, you must
stay away from him."
Trowa looked at her, tears still streaming down his face, "If staying
way from him is in his best interest, then I will..." he buried his face
in his hands again.
WuFei looked at the crying boy, 'this is unjust'.
Heero looked at the doctor, "Mission accepted."
"Would you quit acting like you're about to destroy an enemy. Quatre's
a friend, not someone from OZ" Duo snarled.
Heero got Duo's face, "That maybe, but he'll get in the way. If he gets
in our way, OZ will be sure to claim victory and we'll end up dead because
of him. So my mission is to stay, but I will annihilate any obstacle that's
in my way and that includes him."
Duo stared into the coldness of Heero's eyes, "Shut up! Quatre has been
a great friend to all of us and you're not giving a damn whether or not
he's going to be okay. We all now you're right about OZ, but we have to
help Quatre get his memories back! Not all of us have ice running through
our vanes like you do!"
Dr. Ame stood between the two bickering boys, "That's enough!" she looked
at all four of them, "There is nothing more we can do for him here. You
may take him home once he wakes up."
Nurse Kawa walked into the waiting room, "Excuse me, Dr. Ame. The patient's
awake. He said he wanted to see two of his friends. I believe he said their
names were Duo Maxwell and WuFei Chang."
WuFei looked at her and pointed to Duo, "That's us."
"Come with me please." She escorted them to Quatre's room.
They entered the room and approached the bed. Duo looked at the blond,
"You wanted to see us?"
He nodded, "The doctor said you were going to take me home, but I was
wondering, before we go any where, could you tell me what my name is?"
WuFei smiled, "Your name is Quatre Raberba Winner. You're the heir of
the Winner family, who is so well known to the Arabic nation."
"I'm Quatre?" he blinked, "I'm the heir of the Winner family?" he griped
his head, "My head..."
Duo took one of Quatre's hands and looked in his blue eyes, "It's gonna
be okay we're going to help you get your memories back in any way we can.
So don't stress yourself out, we wouldn't want to see you in any more pain..."
he gave him a small kind smile.
Quatre returned the smile, "Thank you..."
Nurse Kawa smiled at Quatre, "You can leave with them once you get changed."
Duo continued to smile and looked at WuFei, "Go tell Heero and Trowa
to bring the car around."
WuFei nodded and left the room. He walked up to Dr, Ame and the two
boys, "Duo wants you to bring the car around."
"Are we taking him home?" Trowa asked.
He nodded, "You guys will sit in the front and Duo and I will sit in
the back with Quatre."
Heero looked at Trowa, then back at WuFei, "Mission acknowledged." He
and Trowa left to go get the car.
Duo and Quatre walked into the waiting room and stood behind WuFei.
The Chinese Pilot bowed to the doctor, "I'm sorry for what I said to you
earlier. It was unjust to insult you because you're a female doctor and
I apologize. Please forgive my rudeness." He stood up.
Dr. Ame smiled at the Chinese pilot, "Apology excepted. You just take
care of your friend."
Duo smiled and nodded, "You bet we will."
Quatre gave her a half smile, "Thank-you for your help..."
"You don't have to thank me. I was happy to help."
The three boys smiled at the doctor and left. Heero and Trowa were waiting
outside in the car. Duo and WuFei walked out of the hospital with Quatre.
Heero and Trowa looked at them as they approached the car. Quatre saw the
two boys and started to shake. He hid behind Duo.
The Deathscythe pilot looked over his shoulder, "It's okay. They're
not going to hurt you."
He continued to shake, "I don't want them near me" Tears started to
stream down his face.
Trowa looked at the terrified blond, his own tears were welling up in
his eyes, 'I'm sorry, Quatre I'm not trying to scare you. Please get your
memories back, so I can see the person I love once more.'
WuFei looked at Quatre, "Don't worry. We'll be in the backseat with
you, so the won't do anything to you. Okay?"
Quatre nodded. They piled into the backseat and they were on their way
home. The whole way there Quatre was holding onto Duo for dear life. Every
now and then, Trowa would look at his love out of the corner of his eye,
with tears running his cheeks. Heero was concentrating on the road and
Duo had an arm around the blond to reassure him that everything was going
to be okay.
WuFei sighed as he looked out the window, 'This is unjust. Trowa should
be the one reassuring him, not us. But how can he when the person he loves
with all his heart is terrified of him.'
They pulled into the driveway. Heero and Trowa got out of the car. Trowa
went into the house and Heero went into the Gundam hanger. About a minute
after Trowa and Heero got out of the car, Quatre had released his grip
on the American pilot. "Sorry, for holding onto you like that. I was just
afraid that you would leave me with those guys."
Duo smiled at the Arabian, "I wouldn't leave you with them in this state.
I promised you that WuFei and I would be back here with you. You should
know now, I might run and hide, but I never tell a lie. That's me in a
nutshell."
Quatre giggled, "Thank-you, Duo."
WuFei put a hand on the blonde's shoulder, "We'll never lie to you,
Quatre and we'll make sure that you get all of your memories back."
Quatre looked the Shenlong pilot, "I thank you with all my heart."
Duo opened the car door, stepped out and held his hand out to Quatre,
"Come on. Let me give you the grand tour."
"I'd appreciate it." he took Duo's hand and got out of the car.
WuFei got out of the car as well. They all walked into the house. They
stopped in front of the living room. Duo smiled, "This is the living room."
They walked into the kitchen, "This is the kitchen, my favorite room in
the house and this door here leads to the dinning room..." he opened the
door and saw Trowa sitting at the table, looking at his cup of coffee.
Trowa looked at the three boys, then back at his coffee. Duo looked Quatre
and WuFei, "Let's continue the tour."
They walked down the hall and stopped in front of a bathroom. Duo turned
on the light, "This is one of the two bathrooms in the house. See there's
the toilet, and the shower and the sink." He pointed to the objects.
Quatre looked at the longhaired boy, "I know what a bathroom is, but
thanks for showing me where to find it."
Duo nodded. They continued down the hall and stopped in front of the
bedroom doors. Duo pointed to the first door, "This is my room. I share
it with Heero."
"You share a room with a guy that hits you?"
Duo sighed, "It's okay. As long as I don't get in his way or do something
stupid, he won't hit me." He pointed to the second door, "This is Trowa's
room." He pointed to the last door, "And this is WuFei's room."
"Where am I sleeping?"
WuFei looked at the pilot of Sandrock, "You normally share the room
with Trowa, but being the fact that you can't be near him right now, you
can stay in my room with me. Okay?"
Quatre nodded.
"There's one more place we have to show you, follow me." They followed
Duo back outside and into the Gundam hanger. "This is the Gundam hanger.
This is where we store our mobile suits." He began to point to the different
Gundams, "This my Gundam, Deathscythe. This is Trowa's Gundam, Heavyarms.
That's Heero's Gundam, Wing. That Gundam there is WuFei's, it's called
the Shenlong, or as he likes to call it, Nataku. And this one is yours,
the Gundam Sandrock."
Quatre looked at Sandrock, "This is my Gundam?"
Heero jumped down from Wing's cockpit and approached the three boys,
"You guys need to leave. It's to dangerous for Quatre to be in here."
Duo glared at him, "We're just showing him around so he can get used
to his surroundings."
Heero slugged Duo in the jaw. Quatre began to shake and hid behind WuFei.
The Chinese pilot looked at Quatre, then at Heero, "Leave him alone, Yuy!"
"I don't care what you were doing, it's not safe for him to be in here,
so leave." He snarled and headed for the house.
Quatre looked at Duo's swollen jaw and winced, "Are you all right?"
"Yeah." He looked at his watch, "It's getting late, lets go to bed."
They agreed and went into the house. Everyone went sleep except Trowa
and WuFei. WuFei was about to enter his room when Trowa came up to him.
Trowa looked into WuFei's eyes, "WuFei, I know I'm not supposed to go near
Quatre, but can I see him, just this once?"
WuFei nodded and opened the door. He stood in the doorway while Trowa
walked up to Quatre's bed. Trowa stroked Quatre's silky blond hair, "Sleep
well, my desert prince" he kissed him on the forehead and left the room.
It was now 12:01am. Duo sat up in his bed and looked at the clock, 'I'm
hungry must get food" he got out of the bed and tip toed towards the door.
He opened the door slowly and left the room.
He walked down the hall, "Just one sandwich and I'll be back in the
room before Heero can bitch at me." He went into the kitchen and made his
sandwich. He sat down at the table and was about to take a bite of his
sandwich when he heard some noises coming from the porch.
He put his sandwich down and walked towards the porch. He opened the
door and saw Trowa sitting on the edge of the porch playing his flute.
Trowa was playing his and Quatre's song, "Rhythm Emotion."
Tears were running down Trowa's face, he dropped his flute and buried
his face in his hands, "It's not the same without Quatre."
Duo sat next to him, "He'll remember Trowa and things will go back to
the way they were." His eyes started to quiver.
Trowa looked at him, "How can you be so sure? He's so scared of me.
Do you have any idea how much that hurts?"
"I have a guess, but you have to keep your love for Quatre alive because
if you lose your love, then everything else is lost. We can't take the
chance that he won't remember, so please believe in your love for him and
you can conquer anything."
Trowa looked into Duo's eyes, "Thanks for the advice, Duo."
*
*
*
It had been two weeks since the accident and Quatre still had no memory
of his past. It was 3:00am and all the boys were sound asleep. Quatre began
to toss and turn, he was talking in his sleep and shot straight up with
a scream. He began to breathe heavily and started to shake.
WuFei woke up when he heard Quatre's scream. He turned on the light
and walked over to Quatre's bed. He sat down next to the shaking blond,
"Are you all right?"
He continued to shake, "I had a bad dream."
"About what?"
Quatre's eyes were quivering, "A car accident, but at the end of the
dream I saw Trowa."
WuFei moved some of the Arabian's hair out of his face, "It's okay,
it was just a dream." He stood up, "I'll get you a glass of water to help
you calm down."
Quatre grabbed WuFei's hand, "Please don't leave me alone".
The Chinese pilot sat back down and hugged the Arabian pilot, "It's
okay, I won't leave".
Quatre was still shaking, "Can I tell you a secret?"
He pulled away, "Sure."
Quatre whispered in WuFei's ear. The black haired pilot's eyes widened
a little bit, 'Maybe part of his memory is finally coming back.' They waited
a few minutes before going back to sleep.
WuFei woke up at 10:00am. He left his room quietly so Quatre could sleep
some more. He walked into the dinning room and sat at the table with Duo
and Trowa.
Duo looked at the still half asleep WuFei, "Where's Quatre?"
WuFei sighed, "Sleeping. He woke up at 3:00am this morning screaming."
"Is he okay?" Trowa asked.
He nodded, "Yeah, he just had a nightmare about a car accident."
Duo's eyes lit up, "WuFei, do you mean..."
"Yes, he's starting to remember, but he said at the end of the dream
he saw Trowa. Then he told me that his mind is telling him to be afraid
of Trowa, but his heart is telling him it's okay." He looked at the green
eyed pilot, "He may have forgotten his memories of you, but the love he
has in his heart for you will always be there."
A loud scream pierced through the house. The three boys looked in the
direction it came from and they all knew it had to be Quatre. Trowa stood
up from the table, "I'm going to see if he's all right."
Duo looked at him, "But he's afraid of you!"
"I know and it makes no difference to my heart." He left the dinning
room.
He opened the door to WuFei's room and approached the once again shaking
blond. He sat on the edge of the bed, "Are you okay?"
"Stay away from me!!"
He hugged the Arabian pilot, "Not until you tell me what's wrong."
Tears were streaming down Quatre's face, "I had a nightmare about a
car accident, okay?! Now get away from me!"
Trowa pulled away, stood up and walked towards the door. He stopped
in front of the doorway and looked back at Quatre, "You can tell me to
stay away from you all you want to, but my heart will never stop loving
you." He left the room.
Quatre brought his knees to his chest, tears were still running down
his cheeks, "Why do I have to be so scared of him, when at the same time
I feel so comfortable around him" he cried for a few minutes before he
got dressed. He then went into the living room to watch TV.
Trowa was back in the dinning room with Duo and WuFei. Duo looked into
Trowa's bright green eyes, "What happened?"
"He had another dream about a car accident." He heaved a heavy sigh.
Heero walked into the dinning room and looked at his comrades, "We've
got a new mission from Dr. J. I told him what happened to Quatre and he
gave us permission to leave him here, but the rest of us have to go. Duo,
WuFei, Quatre is in the living room watching TV. Go tell him we're leaving."
WuFei and Duo did as they were told and went into the living room. WuFei
looked at Quatre, "We have to talk to you."
"About what?"
Duo sighed, "Do you remember us telling you about our missions to destroy
OZ?"
"Yeah."
The longhaired bot looked into Quatre's blue eyes, "Well we have a mission
now and we can't take you with us because you don't remember how to pilot
Sandrock, but don't worry we'll come back alive."
Quatre looked at his two friends, "Be careful all of you."
WuFei and Duo left the room and went on their mission with Heero and
Trowa. Quatre turned off the TV and began to explore the house. It was
the first time Quatre had been alone, usually he had WuFei or Duo with
him. He walked into Duo and Heero's room.
He looked at the computer that had the location of the latest mission
on it, "Heero's computer" his eyes widened.
'Quatre sat on Heero's bed watching the Japanese boy clack away on his
computer, "Why do you always sit in front of that computer screen? We haven't
had any missions for over a month, why don't you go out and live your life.
You're not a computer, you're a human being and you never know what could
happen to us."
Heero glanced at him, "You might be right, but my mission is to destroy
OZ. Once the battle's over, my life will have no more. So I don't have
to worry about any of you."
Quatre looked at him and shook his head, "That's so lonely" '.
Quatre blinked for a moment and looked over to Duo's bed, "Duo's secret
food stash" his eyes widened again.
'Quatre had his arms crossed and was tapping his foot at the Deathscythe
pilot, "You can't eat all the food in the house. I know you're a lot hungrier
than the rest of us, but I don't have the money to go out and buy food
every day."
Duo looked at the floor, "I'm sorry..."
The blond smiled, "Don't worry about it".
Quatre put his hand to his head, "I have such a headache. I need to
lie down." He left Duo and Heero's room and went into WuFei's room. He
looked around the room for a moment and saw something on WuFei's dresser.
He walked over and picked up the picture, "This is..."
'Quatre held the picture and looked at the Chinese pilot, "WuFei, who
is this?"
WuFei walked over to him, looked at the picture and let a small smile
emit from his lips, "That's my wife, Merin."
"Did you have to leave her behind because you're a Gundam pilot?"
He shook his head, "No, she's dead. I don't feel like explaining how
she died, so don't bother asking."
"I'm sorry." He put down the picture and walked towards the door.
"Don't tell anyone about this, Winner."
Quatre stopped in his tracks and smiled, "I know. It would be unjust
to tell them".
He put down the picture and backed out of the room slowly. He walked
into Trowa's room. "Trowa's not here, but I'm sure he wouldn't mind if
I laid down in here for a while." He sat down on Trowa's bed and looked
at the picture on his nightstand, "That's me and Trowa..."
Quatre walked into the house. It was dark, but the rooms were being
lit by candlelight. He looked around, "Hello? Is anyone here?" he continued
to walk through the house, when he saw Trowa in front of the dinning room
door. Trowa was wearing a tuxedo and was holding a bouquet of red roses.
Quatre looked at him, "What's going on? Where are the others and what's
with the flowers?"
Trowa smiled, "Heero, Duo and WuFei went to grab a bite to eat and catch
a movie. The flowers are for you." He gave them to Quatre.
The blond smelled the roses and looked at Trowa again, "Thank-you. So
what's going on?"
"Follow me" Trowa opened the dinning room door. A waiting them was a
romantic candle lit dinner, flower peddles were spread out all over the
table. He looked at Quatre' sparkling blue eyes, "This is what's going
on, have a seat."
Quatre sat down and looked at his best friend, "What's all this?"
Trowa sat down as well, "The others are gone because they knew I wanted
to be alone with you." He took the blonde's hand, "I wanted to tell you.
I love you."
Quatre looked at him in surprise, "Trowa?"
"I wanted to tell you so badly, but it had to be perfect. I thought
this setting would suit you."
Tears were welling up in Quatre's eyes, "Oh Trowa, I wouldn't have cared
what setting you picked for this. As long as you said those three words."
"Love you" he leaned closer and kissed Quatre on the lips.
"Now I get it I was comfortable around Trowa because I love him." He
stood up, "I have to help them." He ran into Heero's room to get the location
of the OZ base and headed for the Gundam hanger.
~~~
The other four pilots were in a huge battle with upgraded Aries and
Leo suits. A large blast from one of the Leo's beam cannons sent Deathscythe
flying. Heero snuck up behind the enemy Leo and destroyed it. he turned
on his com unit, "Don't over do it, Duo." He was then blasted in the back
an fell to the ground.
~~~
Quatre sat in Sandrock's cockpit, "I know I don't really remember how
to pilot you, but please help me save my friends."

WuFei was striking enemy mobile suits left and right before he was knocked
down by an Aries suit. He struggled to get back up, "Come on Nataku! We
can't be defeated here!"
Trowa was having enough problems of his own. He ran out of bullets and
was being blasted by three Aries and five Leos. One of the Leos had it's
beam cannon aimed at Heavyarms. Trowa shut his eyes, "Quatre, I'm sorry..."
All of a sudden the Leo exploded. The smoke started to clear and revealed
a mobile suit. <Rhythm Emotion begins to play>
Duo looked at the mobile suit in surprise, "Sandrock!"
Trowa was shocked, "Quatre, what are you doing here?"
"We can talk after we complete our mission." He smiled, "Okay, Trowa?"
They agreed and all five of them began to destroy the OZ mobile suits.
Duo gave the enemy an evil glare, "You better watch it because the God
of Death and the Angels of Fire are here!" he sliced five mobile suits
with his scythe
WuFei destroyed about seven Aries and four Leos. He heaved a sigh, "Never
underestimate Nataku."
About ten minutes later, all the OZ mobile suits were demolished. Four
of the Gundam pilots got out of their Gundams and looked at Sandrock. Quatre
waited for a minute before coming out of the cockpit. He lowered himself
to the ground, ran over and hugged Trowa, "I'm so sorry I forgot you."
Trowa put his arms around the blond, "You never forgot me because I
live in your heart and you will always live in mine, my angel."
"Oh Trowa" he kissed Trowa on the lips.
The other three pilots looked at the couple. A small smile began to
appear on Heero's face, 'Maybe Quatre's right. We should live our lives
to the fullest because we never know when something like this could happen.'
He turned and faced Duo. He grabbed the longhaired boy's shoulders and
kissed him on the lips. He pulled away and walked back towards Wing, "Mission
complete." He continued to smile.
Duo looked at the Japanese boy in surprise and in confusion, his voice
was a little higher than normal, "Heero?"
WuFei smiled at Quatre and Trowa, "I guess what they say is true, love
really does conquer all." He put his hand behind his head, "This is for
you, Merin." He took out his pony tail and let his hair down.
Trowa and Quatre broke out of their kiss, but remained in their embrace.
Quatre looked into Trowa's green eyes, "Let's go home."
"No, not yet. Let me hold onto you, just a while longer."
Quatre put his head to Trowa's chest listened to his lover's heartbeat,
"I'd like that."
WuFei continued to smile at them, his hair was blowing in the wind,
"Justice."
The End
