How Many Gundams?
******************
Part #2: A New Pilot?
******************
"Why would the Colonies send a new pilot and not tell
us?"
"Because the two of you are fools. What did you think? They didn't tell you
guy's about each other."
Surprised, Heero turns around and points his gun at a girl
with dark brown
hair. It covers the
right side of her face. She looks about
15, but Heero
can't really tell.
Angrily Heero asks,"Who are you?"
"Follow me. You
must see Red Tiger."
Heero thinks,'Her voice.
It's tone. For some reason I
think I know her.
Like the code that the notes were in.'
Duo:"How can we trust you?"
"Take my weapons.
But I will need them back soon, if you two want to live."
She hands Duo all of her weapons,(seven in all) and they
head to the woods.
"So, who are you?"
"Duo, shut up!"
"All in good time my friend, all in good
time." To her disappointment this
only irritated Duo.
She stops them before a very small clearing. "This is Red Tiger, my Gundam.
I also call it RT or Red.
RT is very different from your Gundams."
Duo:"How your's different?" Heero elbow's him in the ribs. "Owwww! Heero!"
"I built mine myself."
In that emotionless voice of his,"Who are you?"
"Rose."
"Rose what?"
"Rose..."
She pauses, wondering what they will do when she tells them."Rose
J."
"J?!?!"
"Duo, calm down!"
"Heero, I know exactly how your Gundam works because,
Doctor J is my
Grandfather."
"How can we trust you?"
"I can destroy your Gundams with the push of a button,
and I can do it from
my Gundam."
"I don't think that you would."
"Duo, you don't even know me? How can you doubt me?"
"Well, I only..."
"Duo, when in this universe will you shut that hole in
your head? Do I have
to add another?"
"Heero, I will handle it. Meet me here tomorrow at 3:42.
Bring Trowa, and
call the other pilots.
Tell them to be ready, because we are picking them
up."
"Ok! See you
tomorrow! Bye!"
"Bye."
"Bye. And don't
be late!"
The Next Day:
************
"I didn't have time to tell you yesterday that I had
added something to your
Gundam Heero. I
would like to show you and the other pilots.
I can't show
you here. I have a
special place in mind."
They get into their Gundams, and head off. They pick up the other pilots.
"This is the only place where I can show
you." They land at a base and exit
their Gundams.
A stern voice demanded,"Who are you? Who are they? What are you doing
here?" They all
turned around and faced an OZ soldier.
"You must be new.
Please tell Traze that his (in a sweet voice)darling
little Maria Hill is here.
They are my guests." She
points to the guys.
Her message is radioed in.
A moment later Traze comes bolting out the door,
his face is red."Maria, where have you been?!? Who are they and what are the
Gund..." He
can't finish his sentence because the site of them shocks him.
"They are my friends, the Gundam pilots."
"But their are six Gundams, not five!?"
"Can't I have a Gundam too?" She gives him a hug then says,"Is Zechs
back
yet?"
"No, he's not.
You have a Gundam? But
how?"
"I made it, how else could I get one"
Duo:"What are they doing to the Gundams?!"
"Inspecting them.
Let's get something to eat, then we can rest."
Later:
*****
"Order what ever you want. Chris?" A man comes
out of the kitchen."The
usual please."
They all order. When their food
is ready they bring it to
their rooms.
After the meal and some rest, they head outside."Get in
your Gundams and
follow me. Heero you
will use mine and I will use yours.
When you are all
set up turn on your shields."
"Why?"
"If you don't want to get damaged, turn them on."
They head to a field that's about a mile away."Look
out!!!" Maria yells.
Everyone turns around and sees a missel heading in their
direction!
TO BE CONTI....
