Chapter Five: Helena





Duo stepped out of the jeep and pushed his hair behind her shoulder as he gazed out at the base around him. It wasn’t as big as he had imagined it to be, but with a little work, he knew that he could have it twice the size of the base back home at the capitol. He looked around at the layout, memorizing the training ground, the barracks, mess halls, and even the offices. He smiled softly and viewed his primary domain.
“What do you think? Is it up to standard?” Zechs asked, coming over to stand next to him.
“It’s gorgeous,” he replied. “But it needs a little work. By the time I’m done with it, it’ll be even better that the base back home. We’ll be the best damn military in the five colony clusters.” Zechs chuckled, sending chills down the 21 year old’s spine as he looked up.
“I hope it turns out to be everything that you envisioned. C’mon, I’ll show you around Helena.” he said and Duo raised an eyebrow, looking up at him.
“Who?”
“The base, her names Helena 395.” Duo’s face widened into a grin.
“Even better!” Zechs laughed, oh would it be a roller coaster ride with him as the leading General.

There was a mumble going around about a lithe brunette woman accompanying Commander Merquise around the base. There was also a rumor that she was his lover, or maybe that she was a new secretary. Kenneth Heat had heard all of them by the time he’d entered the bustling mess hall. The men were talking about who could get her first while the women were asking how they could get their hair that long, or that shiny.
“Man, they just can’t give it a rest can they?” a young man said, sitting down in front of Kenneth.
“Not when I ‘ear she’s quite the looker they won’.” he said gruffly as a woman walked over and sat next to him.
“Afternoon darling.” she said, leaning up to kiss him.
“Afternoon Miss Heat.” the other man said.
“Hello Jason, where are the twins?” she asked, looking around.
“Here.”
They turned to see two blond walking over towards the table with lunch trays.
“Hear about the new girl?” the taller of the two said. Kenneth rolled his eyes
“For ‘bout the billionth time already.” he said as they laughed. His wife patted his shoulder.
“It’s okay honey, young men usually go bonkers over a pretty girl.” she said.
“I heard she’s the new Grand General of the L2 Cluster.” one of the twins said. Everyone stopped eating and looked up.
“What do ya mean?” Kenneth asked.
“Didn’t you read the news letter?” they shook their heads and the twins looked at each other.
“Apparently the conditions of the L2 Cluster have caught the attention of Vice President and Senior Preventer Une. Letter said that she’d be sending a Grand General here soon.”
“Are you sure she’s it Ibiki?” Jason asked.
“Well, we can’t be too sure, Ebisu and I only heard the rumor that she’s it... We haven’t even seen her yet.”Ibiki said shrugging. “ For all we know she’s just a civilian Commander Merquise is giving the tour to.” he finished.
Suddenly, there was a racket as the mess hall all moved to see who was walking through the door.
“What’s goin’ on?” Kenneth asked. Ebisu stood on one of the benches.
“It’s commander Zechs and the new girl... though... hell that ain’t no girl! That’s a guy!! And he’s dressed in... ho shit...” Ebisu stumbled back down and sat down.
“What, what’s wrong?” ibiki asked.
“That... the uniform... that person is wearing...” Kenneth growled, whatever it was the person was wearing, had obvious spooked the kid. He turned to see that Commander Zechs was walking towards them with their guest.
Ebisu had gotten something right. The kid, cause he couldn’t be much older than 20, was indeed a guy... then again, he could see where they all went wrong. He was very lithe and skinny, possibly anorexic, and his hair was longer than that of his wife’s. Then he caught a glimpse at the person’s uniform, and he knew why Ebisu was frightened. The person walking beside Zechs was indeed a Preventer as some of the rumors described. The logo on his chest was enough to prove that. However, on his shoulder, embroidered in gold, silver and black, was a symbol that everyone knew, that everyone feared, worshiped and praised. It was the patch of a Gundam pilot.
“Damn... the kid’s a pilot.” he said, turning to look at the group with him.
“Pilot? You mean a gundam pilot?” his wife asked shakily as he nodded his head. Zechs and the pilot walked past them talking.
“I’m sure the accommodations will fit as well, the office space is next to my own, I’m certain you will have no problem getting accustomed to life here.” Zechs said. The pilot waved his hand.
“I was born on this hell hole, I’m sure I’ll fit in fine. Besides, I’m not sittin’ at a desk all damn day, Une never said anything about a desk job.” he glared up at Zechs who laughed.
“Of course not Duo, who would ever think of putting the great Shinigami at a desk job.” he joked.
“Damn straight, I ain’t no secretary.. That’s your job... Treize wanna-be.” Zechs turned to look down at him.
“I resent that you little hoodlum.” Duo shrugged as they walked off.
“Hey, shoe fits, why not wear it.. Princey.”
The murmurs doubled as the two of them left the room. Kenneth ran a hand over his eyes.
“Damn.. This could be bad...” he said
“What do we do Honey?” Maria asked.
“What’s got you guys so spooked?” Jason asked, looking between his four other teammates.
“It’s... that kid.. He’d pilot 02...Deathscythe’s pilot, the Shinigami.. I was one of the lucky ones, I wasn’t sent out to fight that one, but...I watched what he could do. He’s a genious, an’ he’s good... but, most of us here are ex-Ozzies.. What if he don’ know that?” he asked as everyone looked at each other. If that was the case, then many of them hoped and prayed that they would not be assigned to his team.
