I am an Imaginary Living Body

File Five

Sorry about the long wait. I had to move my web page and I am not even done doing that. All disclaimers apply.

"On the natural stage are the units of existence
Comprised of an imaginary creature-craft

Words are born, the encounter, then a hesitation
Knowledge is born, the encounter, then a void
O where am I, when am I

Usagi felt a sudden lift and jerk that seemed almost simultaneous when the shuttle entered space. She looked over to see that Hiiro was staring straight ahead at nothing. What a strange guy, cute, but very strange. Kinda scary too.

She looked at the row of seats behind her and saw that the woman Quatre was sitting next to had fallen asleep on him and he was being crushed under her weight. She almost laughed, but was stopped when Hiiro forced her to sit back down.

"Don't attract attention to yourself," he said with a cold gaze

"Don't be such a jerk, I was only visiting Quatre-san," said Usagi crossing her arms.

"I don't want you getting us caught because of your cluelessness. These shuttles are monitored by OZ," said Hiiro.

"Hmph," said Usagi and she stuck her tongue out at him.

The docked at a colony hours later. Usagi half hid behind Hiiro as usual, and Quatre still found it highly amusing, but didn't show it. The boys met with a Chinese man by the name of Chang Wufei, and according to Usagi, he wore a painful-looking pony tail.

"Weak onna," Wufei scoffed as the girl continued to giggle at him.

"Usagi-san," said Hiiro coldly, "Stop it now or I will leave you here."

"You're so mean to me Hiiro-san," Usagi pouted.

"Baka onna," Wufei said as they walked out of the port and onto the colony streets.

"Would you sto-WOW!" Usagi said as she looked up and saw more streets and building in the "sky" above them.

"Have you ever been to space before Miss Usagi?" Quatre asked as he hailed a taxi.

"No, I've had friends who have told me about it," said Usagi, still in awe, "But I guess it is one of those things you just have to see for yourself."

"Well Miss Usagi, Hiiro," said Quatre, "I guess I will be seeing you later then, Wufei is going to take you to meet Trowa."

"Where are you going Quatre-san?" Asked Usagi.

"I have some other things I need to do," said Quatre with a smile, "Don't worry Miss Usagi, we will meet again. I promise."

"Bai Quatre-san!" Usagi shouted after him as his taxi sped away.

"Come on," said Wufei, "I found a place to stay for the night." He led the two away to a warehouse with what looked like large pieces of machinery covered in sheets. "Make yourselves at home, but don't wander around too much. These machines are dangerous."

Usagi found a place to sit and fall asleep while the two boys discussed what they were going to do next. Wufei kept suggesting on going to the L-5 colony area, while Hiiro kept arguing it would be too risky to take another shuttle when OZ probably already figured out that Usagi was no longer on Earth by now.

"Well then what do you propose to do Yui?" Wufei demanded.

"We should stay low for awhile," said Hiiro.

"They're bound to get suspicious of this place," said Wufei, "It's been abandoned for years and neighbors are bound to notice that suddenly people are living in it."

"Then I'm putting you in charge of not letting them notice," said Hiiro, "Keep a lookout, if one of them comes over to investigate we will hide and make sure it still appears abandoned. None of us will go out in the day while we are here."

"And what will you be doing?" asked Wufei.

"My job is to keep her safe," said Hiiro, "so I am going to look for a safer place and make plans for when OZ does decide to pay us a visit."

For the next two weeks, Usagi felt like she was living like a vampire. Whenever she wanted to go out it could only be at night, she could not stand near windows, and her skin was very pale from lack of time outside in the sun. Occasionally neighbors would poke around thinking that they saw someone in one of the windows, or heard noises coming from the warehouse at night. But Hiiro always did a good job hiding any evidence of them being there.

Usagi sat quietly in a chair that had been left in the old office on the second level of the warehouse. There was a little fan that blew a slow breeze on her as she tried to sleep, but the heat in the whole building was unbearable. Years of poor ventilation had left the place an oven and it made everyone irritable, Wufei called everyone idiots, Hiiro gave everyone glares whenever they did something that nearly exposed them, and Usagi just didn't speak to anyone.

Suddenly, the fan clicked off. Usagi looked over and saw no one there, then she noticed that safety lights on the docking bay, that were always on, were off also. She looked over at Hiiro, his eyes were narrowed in suspicion. Wufei came over in a quiet job and whispered something to Hiiro.

"So they finally caught on," said Hiiro standing up.

"What?" Usagi asked as she also stood.

Hiiro began collecting various pieces of weaponry, "OZ soldiers are outside," Usagi gasped. Suddenly the doors flew open and fifteen soldiers ran in.

"Get her out of here!" Hiiro yelled to Wufei as he began firing at the soldiers, a few fell, some fired back. Hiiro got a bullet in his leg, but managed to keep standing.

Unfortunately, he did not remain standing for long. One soldier managed to get him in his stomach.

"IIE!!!!!" Usagi screamed as she ran over to Hiiro and cradled him.

"Get out!" Hiiro yelled, he coughed up blood and was soon unconscious.

"Dame," Usagi said shaking her head, "….DAME!" A bullet landed in her right arm, and then suddenly things became like slow-motion for Wufei.

Usagi's eyes flashed as she stood up, all the bullets that were being fired suddenly slowed and fell to the ground. She placed a hand over the wound on her arm and suddenly it and any spilled blood disappeared, she turned and did the same for Hiiro's. Then, in a seemingly calm way, she walked over to the soldiers, who were now afraid for their lives, and grabbed one of the rifles by the barrel. She pulled it away from the shocked soldier and swung it like a baseball bat to hit the soldier, he must have flown 50 yards before collecting himself and running. The other soldiers did the same, not wanting to stick around and have the same done to them.

"Usagi," Wufei said, she tuned and looked at him with the same look she gave the soldiers, "Calm down! I'm not going to hurt you onna!"

"Usagi!" Hiiro said in a stern, yet gentle tone, "wake up!"

Her expression softened and she dropped the gun, "Where am I?" she asked, "what happened?" She stumbled to the floor as she tried to walk over to Hiiro, he ran over and caught her just before she hit the ground. Usagi curled up in his arms and instantly fell asleep.

"What was that?" Wufei asked uncertainly.

"The reason why OZ wants to get its hands on her so much," Hiiro said coldly.

To be continued!
