was talking to Mariemaya when suddenly her eyes drew over to Cassi dancing with a tall Blonde man. Her heart skipped a skip and slowly she pushed her way towards the others.
however was enjoying herself.
"Your dance beautifully" he said.
"Uh thanks, you do too," Cassi said blushing.

Kaito quickly found Meg who had went out to the terrace and was looking at the gardens in the moonlight.up? Not feeling up to socializing today?" Kaito asked as he walked up and leaned against the balcony railing with his elbows sitting on the bar as he watched the redhead calmly. He looked away for a moment and bit his lip. She might not like dressed but she really looked good in them.don't," Meg said and blushed, "I just don't like big crowds i'm not up to this formal stuff yea know?"
"Uh yea i think" Kaito said.

Meanwhile As Elizabeth tried to walk her way towards Cassi. When suddenly the tall blond man started to dance with her.
"It's been awhile Elizabeth..I see your just as weak as ever," he said.
"Pappa," she whispered. Elizabeth gasped and started to dance in fear slowly when Mariemaya walked up.
"Who's this?" she asked
"You must be Mariemaya," the man stated, "you're as beautful as I was told."
"Oh thank you sir," she said.

Meanwhile Meg was looking at Kaito and blushed.
"Your probably wanting to join the party and dance some more," Meg said, "Don't let me stop you from having some fun."Come on. That's so overrated," he chuckled then sighed, "I don't really feel like dancing at the moment. I just feel like something's wrong. I feel like we're in the eye of a tornado and at any moment we'll be sucked right back up. Back into the hell we were in before."I feel like that too yea know?" Meg asked and slowly turned around tripped over his heels and landed in Kaito's arms. "Uh stupid heels." Kaito flushed slightly and helped her to gain her footing again, smiling at her slightly, "You ok? Hmm, better watch yourself there. We really don't need you breaking your ankle and then finding out our 'premonitions' of danger where true."fine," Meg said and blushed badly, "Just not use to walking on these heels."
"Uh." Kaito said and blushed also, "Maybe you should sit down."
"I'm fine...just a little dizzy," she stold him and suddenly as she tried to balance herself the heel of her shoe snapped off and she fell bringing Kaito down to the floor with her. Suddenly she fell on top of him and there lips met. Kaito turned his head away and clenched his eyes shut in embarassment. He could feel his cheeks burn slightly as he became slightly redder. Meg blushed heavily as she pulled away and Kaito helped her up.
"I'm sorry," she blushed

Meanwhile Duo was searching around for Meg, he wanted her too meet Heero Son. But just as he was about to check the tarace he noticed the blond man dancing with Elizabeth. Duo's breath stopped and he gulped in air.
"No...way...oh God," Duo said and Trowa touched his shoulder.
"Something wrong?" He asked.
"Look," Duo said and pointed to Treize and Trowa almost gagged on his drink.
Duo noticed Treize was gone...Kaito slowly drifted from the balcony blushing heavily. Meanwhile Meg was still blushing as Treize entered the balcony.
"Your looking well Megm" he said and Meg turned around and her breath was caught in her chest...she remembered this man very well.
"Treize," Meg whispered.
"Yes and you are looking lovely as ever darling," Treize said and took her hand to kiss it only Meg hauled it away and she suddenly she found herself being dizzy.
"Get away from me," Meg said and tried to walk into the party but Treize grabbed her.
"This won't hurt a bit." Treize said and stabbed her with a neddle and she let out a scream. She screamed so load the musicians stopped playing and everyone looked over...Treize was gone.
turned quickly as soon as he heard the scream and ran back to Meg, kneeling down and putting a hand on her shoulder, "Meg? What happened? What's wrong?" he asked though Meg was too busy trying to calm herself down to respond.Meg said, "Treize..."

Suddenly Mariemaya came into the balcony and suddenly she noticed Rya on the floor.
"What happened?" she asked.
"Treize," Kaito growled.
"What are you talking about?" she asked.
"Father," Elizabeth whispered as she walked over. Kaito narrowed his eyes, from what i've heard about him, he's capable of taking care of himself and anyone who gets in his way. Right now we need to get you out of here and to a doctor. Do you think you can stand?"feel weird," Meg responded. Cassi suddenly came running up and bent down to her friend.
"Meg...Meg look at me hon," Cassi said, "Are you alright...what happened?"
"I remembered standing on the balcony and then Treize," she whispered.
"Excuse me what are you getting at?" Mariemaya asked.
"I think I can stand.." Meg said and slowly Kaito help her only to have her legs go out from under her. "Guess not."
"Come on let's get you to your room," Cassi said and slowly they lifted Meg's arms over there shoulders.
"What's this?" Elizabeth asked and picked up a needle off the floor and her eyes went big...she knew what this for. "Oh no...no...no...no"
"What's wrong?" Mariemaya asked.
"My father...damn him to hell...he truly wants that...that Maxwell girl instead of me!!" she screamed.
"Who the hell is your father?" Mariemaya asked.
"Treize Kushrenada," Elizabeth muttered in contempt and Mariemaya stepped up and slapped Elizabeth across the face.
"Don't you dare say my father's name in that way!!" she screamed. "He is dead and was a good man so don't you dare speak of him like that!!"
sighed and glanced at Marimaiya, trust Meg and if she says the person who attacked her looked like your father then I believe her. Could be someone who was altered to look like him and cause trouble of course. I've heard it done before but either way, we have to be careful." Meg was taken to her room by Cassi and Kaito and Kaito laid her down.
"I'm gonna go and check on Elizabreth and Mariemaya," Cassi told them. "And help the guests..you keep an eye on Meg, Sally will be up in a minute." Cassi left the room and Kaito looked at Meg she needed her medicine...
"It's a pleasure to meet you finally Kaito Barton," a voice said and Kaito looked up to see Treize standing there and in his hand was a vile of green liquid. Kaito narrowed his eyes at the man before him, did you do to her?!" he growled as he placed his hand on his belt which held his gun. Thankfully, he always kept the weapon with him no matter what. He'd learnt by now that it could come in handy.think it's more of the question of what you would do for her?" Treize asked.
"What?" Kaito asked.
"Here I have a vile of the serum she needs but you have to do something for me first," Treize said, "It's a fair deal I give you something you give me something."
narrowed his eyes, got my own vile right here in... Damn it!" he growled as he reached in his pocket and realized his vile was no longer there. He glared at Treize then at the vile. It was obvious that the older man had somehow got ahold of the vile he always kept with him.
"What do you want?"want one thing," Treize said, "You bring me the Wing 0." Kaito glared at Treize then glanced at Meg. Heero was working on a new batch of medicine now but the way Meg was looking it was clear that she needed it now, give that to her now and I'll get the gundam for you after."Treize said, "And to make sure you hold your end of the bargin there is a bomb planted somewhere on this propety a real bomb. You don't deliver the wing in 24 hours to the hanger south west of this place i'll detenate it." Treize tossed Kaito the vile and in a blink of an eye he was gone
narrowed his eyes at the area where Treize had just been then turned to Meg. He shook his head and he unstopped the vile and poured it's contents it into her mouth, know you really like that Gundam Meg but its got to go. I'm not going to be responsible for any deaths." With that said, he got up and headed out the door just as Sally arrived there. She glanced at his face and was about to stop him and ask what was wrong when he mumbled, "Don't even bother asking. Keep an eye on Meg for me."

Sally sighed and turned, heading into the room where Meg was lying on the bed. She quickly went about checking to make sure the redhead was ok. Meg coughed and stirred as Sally examined her.
"Your awake," she stated as she opened her eyes.
"What...where's kaito?" she asked.
"I'm not sure," Sally replied, "He just asked me to keep an eye on you then left. He looked a bit upset though."

Kaito, meanwhile, had made it to the hangar where the gundams were kept. He sighed and glanced at Wing Zero for a moment. The lives of so many people in this Palace were counting on him. Or where they? Maybe Teize was lying about the bomb, but then again, Kaito knew he couldn't take the chance.
"Oh great, don't tell me you're gonna start gawking at it all the time now," one of the engineers chuckled from behind Kaito.
"Hmm?" he asked then shook his head and glanced at the other man, "No, I was just thinking. I better go," he muttered as he turned and headed out of the hangar. He knew it probably wasn't a good idea to try and take the gundam while there were people there, so he would wait till everyone was asleep.night Meg walked the halls because she couldnt sleep then she saw Kaito walking down to the hanger. She followed him and watched him go near the Wing 0.
"Kaito what are you doing?" she asked. Kaito stiffened and turned to look at Meg, turn and go back to bed Meg. Just pretend you never saw me here. Please." He then closed his eyes and turned back to the gundam. With a few quick leaps he was at the cockpit door of the moble suit. He pressed a few buttons and the door opened.
"Kaito what are you doing!!" Meg screamed running over towards the gundam as Kaito started it up. "You can't control it...please Kaito stop!!" Kaito however was trying to block out her yelling but she suddenly jumped in the cockpit.
"I can't let you take it," Meg screamed, "You don't know what to handle it!!"
"I can handle it Meg. I have to do this. He'll kill everyone," he said narrowing his eyes at the girl then grabbed her upper arm, "I need you to find the bomb. Treize didn't specify anywhere but if he decides to double cross me I need to know that someone's taking care of that."
"A bomb?" asked Meg looking stunned. "What do you mean a bomb?" It was then Cassi came running in, currently wearing her usual clothing.
"Kaito, Sally said something was up!" she yelled to him. "What the heck's going on?"
"There's a bomb in the area or so I think," he responded. "I want you and Meg to find it and disarm it, don't ask, i'll explain later now go." That said he hurriedly forced Meg to get off the cockpit door and closed it, before taking the suit out of the hanger. Meg fell off the cockpit door and turned quickly so she'd land on the ground without hurting herself. Cassi ran to restrain her friend as she tried to stop Kaito again, and frowned. Another bomb? What were they the bomb squad?
"Come on Meg, we'd best go and tell the others, we'll need help." Sighing as Meg stood there standing and staring, she grabbed her wrist and dragged her from the hanger.there's a bomb somewhere?" asked Quatre when Cassi told him what Kaito had said. "And Treize planted it?"Cassi confirmed as she kept her grip on Meg's wrist. "We have to find it and disarm it, or this place will go up like the forth of July."the last thing we need," Duo confirmed. "What's wrong with Meg?"took Wing 0," Cassi told him. "She's worried about him."wouldn't worry," Trowa commented. "Kaito's had a little bit of experience with the 0 system before. So, let's find this bomb ok."thought you'd never suggest it," Cassi murmured. "Oh and remind me to wash or burn my dress later."do you mean?" her mother asked just as Cassi was leading Meg from the room.danced with Treize," Cassi responded with a tone that suggested she might be ill there and then. "I already showered so I feel much cleaner, but the dress needs to be cleansed." Miss. Noin cocked a quizzical eyebrow and then shook her head, as the girls left.and Cassi searched the sanq palace top from the bottom and yet found nothing.
"Cassi," Meg said suddenly looking at a pink door, "How big is Relena's room?'
"How should I know?" Cassi asked and Meg opened the door to the pink painted room. She looked around, bombs was one of her dad's specailties and such passed it down to her. Looking around she noticed the chandalier. Getting on a chair and piling a few phone books on the top she looked onto the top of the chandalier.
"Uh Cassi?" Meg asked.
"What?" she asked, "Did u find it?"
"Oh yeah I found it alright along with about enough nitro, plastic exposlives and hyrdo acid to take out half New York City," she responded and looked at the the bomb.

The bomb was well put together, two canisters held the hydro and nitro while the middle seemed to be all plastic explosvies and wires. They were in deeep trouble. Meg reached into the chandalier down and gently lifted the bomb to Cassi. Cassi could've choked, it was huge and highly dangerous. One wrong move and they'd be blown to kingdom come.
"Ok, suggestions," Cassi offered. it's not armed yet," Meg responded. "So that's a good sign, but my suggestion would be to find the disarming link."in all honesty even though we know how to diffuse bombs, I wouldn't try this alone," Cassi told her. "This is really advanced."wiped her slightly sweating palms on her jeans and stared at the bomb, it was no secret bombs made her nervous, she hated the things with avengance.and get the adults then," Meg told her. "It may need a couple of us to handle this thing." Cassi nodded and leaving Meg to the currently inactive bomb, ran off to find the adults. Usually if Kaito were around Cassi wouldn't be so bothered, he was so calm in the face of bombs and how he did it she would never know. Of course there were three of them at the time, so that made it easier.
she remembered had gone off in Wing 0, she needed to tell him. Lifting her wrist she turned on her radio, as she carried on jogging through the palace.Kaito where are you?' she asked trying to keep her voice calm.here," he responded in a semi-calm voice. "Are you ok Cassi? Found that bomb yet?"we found it all right, well Meg did anyway," she told him. "It was in Relena's room."it armed?"yet, we're going to try and disarm it, once we have more hands on help."i'm going to see what I can do about helping from my end," Kaito told her. "Hang tough ok, Kaito out."
sighed as she turned off her radio and turned a corner, bumping into Heero at the same time and they both fell to the floor with a thump.a hurry are we?" asked the older pilot.the bomb was in Relena's room," Cassi explained as she pulled herself to her feet. "It's not armed, but it's highly dangerous. One false move and it will destroy miles of the Sanq Kingdom, or half of New York City according to Meg."is it?" asked Wufei who'd just arrived to hear the story.with Meg in Relena's room. We need more help to disarm it."us," Heero told her. Cassi nodded and led them back to Relena's room.
Meg looked at the bomb and examined the wires inside and suddenly her hands started to shake.
"No...no I can't I have to fight it," she whispered as she tightened her hands into fists and then continued sorting threw the wires again when the adults and Cassi came charging into the room. The bathroom door suddenly opened and Relena stepped out of the shower wearing nothing but a towel. Relena stood there, the others stood there and Meg counted slowly to three before Relena suddenly throwing things at the adults.
"GET OUT OUT OUT OUT OUT OUT!!" Relena cried throwing a lamp at Wufei's head. "HEERO YOU CAN STAY!!" Heero hid behind Wufei who carefully walked out of the room or rather ran.
"Can I shoot her?" Meg asked looking down ar Cassi. Cassi who'd winced when Relena had started shouting, giggled slightly and walked up to the clearly angry woman, taking her arm and pointing towards the item Meg was looking at.
"Miss. Relena," she stated calmly. "A bomb was placed into your chandelier. I asked Heero and Wufei to come in and help us disarm it. If it's not disarmed this place will go up like a rocket." Relena stared at the bomb in her chandelier, shaking a tiny bit at the thought.back into your bathroom," Cassi told her shooing her away. "And stay there while we try and disarm it and get it out of here." Relena nodded and slipped back into the bathroom and closed the door. With a wave, Cassi called Heero and Wufei back into the room and between the four of them they moved it to the hallway, closing the door behind them.room is disturbing," Wufei muttered under his breath.can discuss Relena's choice of decoration later," Heero told him as the other adults came running round the corner and into the room.heard a scream," Miss. Noin muttered as her eyes fell on the bomb in the now half dismantled chandalier.that," Cassi smirked from the other chair and things she was standing on. "Just Relena redecorating."
"What the?" Meg asked and suddenly spied a vile of familiar green liquid connecting the two bombs together and seemed to be bubbling.

Duo who had gotten a ladder held it while Heero climbed up and investigated.
"A professional did this," he told them and looked at the tube of green liquid and then at Meg. His eyes moved to her hands which were shaking again and she quickly hid them in her pockets.
"Meg are you alright?" Duo asked looking up at his daughter.
"Uh yeah" she responded and suddenly her vision become white.

She could see Kaito in the Wing 0 there was blood everywhere and Treize was there, and then the burning battle fields appeared with the flaming gundam rising from the ashes. Heero noticed Meg suddenly tip slightly to the left and caught her.
"Meg?" Casssi asked and suddenly she snapped into reality.
"Huh?" she asked, II..Kaito Cassi something's wrong with Kaito"
stepped down from her perch first, with her moms help and reached up to help Meg down off her chair perch, she didn't need her falling off and injuring herself, she had enough to put up with as it was.what did you see?" she asked carefully.0, Kaito, Treize...blood..." Meg responded bit by bit. Cassi bit down on her bottom lip, not realising how hard she'd done it till it strated to hurt. She ceased doing so and activated her radio watch.she asked worriedly. "Kaito?" She got no response from him, just static. Adjusting her radio to different frequencies, she tried again.It's Cassi please answer me." Once again she got nothing. She glanced at Meg and noticed the other girl was becoming very upset, even shaking at the thought that Kaito was hurt.
didn't know what to do, she had to keep Meg calm and somehow figure out why Kaito wasn't answering her calls. If he had a reason she would understand, but Megs feelings were playing off of her and she couldn't think straight.I want you to guard your emotions as much as you can for a moment," Cassi told her. Meg nodded and took several deep breaths to calm her nerves. Closing her eyes, Cassi focused on Kaito, imagining what he looked like and how he acted. Soon enough she could feel his heart beating, it was beating amazingly fast, but he seemed well enough. She just wished she knew where he was.

- - - -
Kaito was nearing a place where he felt Treize was waiting. His hands tightened on Wing 0's controls, his hands turned white and his breathing rasped. Why was he nervous? If anything he should be prepared for this, but he couldn't help but think that something wasn't right.
Meg could also hear Kaito's heart beating and her own started to beat faster and Cassi knew this.closed his eyes for a moment and took a deep breath and calm his nerves. He usually didn't get this nervous on missions and didn't quite like the feeling. He didn't know, however, that Cassi was franticly trying to contact him as he'd turned off his communicator so that no one would try to stop him.

He opened his eyes and glanced ahead and saw as an old looking moble suit stomped up towards him and stopped. He knew it had to be Treize as the tales of the older man said that he was never one to send someone else to do his dirty work.

He narrowed his eyes as the cockpit opened and the man stepped out. He looked up at the gundam and Kaito sighed, opening the cockpit and stepping out to 'gree' the great Treize Kushranada. He glared at the man who just chuckled in return.

"So, you came after all. I was beginning to think that you'd never come. Hmm, and I was so looking forward to blowing that useless palace up. Oh well, now that I have what I want," he said as he stepped forward and Kaito stepped out of his way as he walked onto the Wing Zero's cockpit door and began to look it over.

"mmm, I should thank you, Kaito Barton. And since I was so looking forward to setting off that bomb, I think I will, and as a reward for your help, I will let you live. Unfortunetely, I can't say the same for your friends and family back at the Sanq Palace," Treize smirked.

Kaito's heart seemed to skip several beats as he heard that, he so hoped that the girls had managed to disarm the bomb by now, or that with some help they'd managed to to. On his way there he couldn't believe that earlier he'd pushed Cassi closer to Treize, how could he have been so stupid? If Cassi ever found out that that had been him, she'd kill him. If she survived that is. Please have disarmed it he thought to his friends as he tried to think of how to stop Treize.

Back at the Sanq Palace, Heero and the girls were trying their best to stop the bomb before it was armed. Meg and Heero had got through half the wiring by then, thankfully without slipping up. Cassi was near by, carefulyl disconnecting the viles of green liquid.
"It's kind of like our gundams self-detinating device," she remarked as she finally managed to remove one of the viles, taking some of the power off the bomb.
"You have self-detinating devices?" asked her mother as Cassi began work on the other vile.
"Yes. Do you expect us to go to battles without a last resort?" she asked.looked at Treize, unsure of what to do as he could clearly see the detonating device in the man's hand. If he tried anything, it was likely that Treize would activate the bomb and kill everyone back at the palace, but from what he was saying, he'd do it anyways.

"You can't do that. We had a deal and I kept my side of it. Now you have to keep yours," Kaito said, not really expecting Treize to agree. Treize, on the other hand, smirked at this statement and looked at the brown haired youth.

"Perhapse, we can make another deal?" he said smirking slightly.
on," Kaito agreed carefully. Treize smirked quietly, lowering the hand that held the detonator.
"The deal is simple, i'll let you live and I won't blow up the Sanq Palace if you hand your two girlfriends over to me."
"WHAT?!" Kaito spluttered. "You want me to hand them BOTH over? Why?"
"Meg will be completing her mission and as for the blue haired child Miss. Noin calls a daughter well...she's kind of cute..." Kaito was infuriated, there was no way he'd do that. He cared too much about his fellow pilots to put them in that sort of position, Meg was too 'no way' to consider it and he wouldn't hand Cassi over, she was the youngest and just a kid to him, like a little sister.
"Forget it," he snapped. "I'll never agree to that. I'd sooner die."
"That can be arranged," Treize growled. "I can kill your friends in the time being as well."

That said Treize lashed out and hit Kaito hard with his adult strength, backhanding him across the face. The brunette teen was thrown off the other gundams cockpit door and hit the floor hard, gaining scratches, and a few bruises. Treize jumped down and landed heavily on the concrete.
"The years haven't been good to you," Kaito chuckled. Treize glared at him as he wrenched him up by the collar, pulling it tight around Kaito's neck. Kaito found it hard to breathe now and his heart pounded. He struggled and attempted to kick himself free, but Treize had the advantage of age, experience and strength.
"This will teach you to be cocky with me," he told Kaito icily. With several heavy punches and kicks, Treize left the boy to hit the floor, bleeding and bruised and with a nice forming black eye.
"Now," he smirked. "Time to blow the bomb." at the Sanq Palace, Heero, Cassi and Meg breathed a huge sigh of relief each as they finished disarming the bomb. Cassi had managed to dislodge the vials, whilst Meg and Heero had cut every wire they'd found and were now placing the bits around the room and away from each other.
"I hate bombs," Cassi muttered. "If I ever see Treize again, i'm gonna..." At that point she winced and grasped her chest, whilst clenching her eyes shut.
"Cassi, Cassi what is it?" asked Meg, her attention now switching to her friend.
"Kaito," she muttered. "He's hurt."

Back at the empty space, Treize had pressed the button, not knowing that the bomb had been disarmed.
"So sorry," he smirked at Kaito.
Meg said and slumped down on the floor, 'Damn Ralena next time you wont a chandalier get one that isnt big enough to hide a bomb inside"

Slowly Duo patted his daughter on the back.

'Good job my little angel of death i see you inharited your working with mister emotionless from me" Duo chuckled.

'Urg disarming bombs is a very very hard job" Meg sighed and slowly looked at everyone, 'Uh can we please get out of here before i start seeing more pink then nessasary in this room?"

'Can i come out from the bathroom now?" Ralena asked.

'Uh why dont you..." Meg said and Heero quickly covered her mouth.

'No" Heero said.
Cassi got up with a bit of help from her mom, but she was still in pain. She could feel her heart beating harder and faster, Kaito was paniking, probably because he was hurt and worried about them.
"Cassi? Are you ok?" asked Quatre.
"No, Kaito's hurt," she whispered as Duo and Wufei began to remove the pieces of the bomb.
"We have to get to him," Meg told them.
"If we can find out where he went," Duo told her.
"The gundams all have tracking and gudiance systems," Cassi told him. "If Meg and I take our gundams, we can track him."
"Are you up for it?" Quatre asked.
"Yes," both girls chorused.

Straightening herself up as if she'd pushed her emotions aside, Cassi took on a 'don't get in my way' attitude and left the room with Meg hot on her heals. Both girls were fast to get to their gundams and get them ready to leave.
"Hold on, weren't our suits...?" Meg began.
"Saboutarged?" Dr. H finished. "Yes. We fixed that problem."
"Thanks," the girls called as they set off.

Back in the empty area, Kaito was curled up in a semi fetus position, grasping his sore stomach where Treize had punched him. Worry made him reach for his wrist radio and turn it on.
"Cassi? Meg?" he asked through forced breath. "Answer me, please."
"They're dead you fool," Treize snorted. But he was wrong, for at that moment Cassi's relieved voice responded to him.
"We're here Kaito," she soothed. "We're on our way."
"You're alive?"
"Yes, the bomb's disarmed. We're coming for you, so hang tight." Kaito simply nodded at the reassuraning sound of his friends voice and once again grasped his stomach. He heard Treize mutter a curse or two and smirked to himself.

It was then he was dragged off the floor as the taller man grabbed him by his collar and held him in the air, glaring daggers at him. This was it, he was not going to live to see his friends. Kaito could feel his airways been blocked and he desperately tried to breathe, but the breaths were short and sharp and hurt his chest.
"Even if they're not dead, at least i'll have the pleasure of killing you," Treize told him.
Meg felt her hands tremble as she held onto the contols for Death Angel as they flew off into the sky.

Meg couldnt loose Kaito no he ment way too much to her...she couldnt loose him not like her mother...it would be her fault...then again it always was.
the silence from the other suit, Cassi opened her radio link to it.she asked softly. "Meg are you all right?" She activated her two way imaging system and looked at the other girl, who didn't look so good.hon. What is it?"fine" Meg lied as her hands stopped trembling, 'Just worried about Kaito thats all"

Meg slowly took her breaths slow and easy, she couldnt show that she was getting ill again...no she needed to rescue Kaito...if she lost him......

'Let's go and get Treize and kick his Hulk Hogan Cassi"
nodded as they boosted the power to their gundams engines. She could sense Meg was hiding something, but her better judgement said to let it be.could see the island in the distance, Meg slowly landed her gundam and jumped out.

'Ok Kaito where are you?" Meg asked and suddenly a round of guards armed with guns surrounded them.

'Mister Treize requests an audiance with you ladies" One man said.

'Huh looks like the almighty Treize wants to see us" Meg said and looks at Cassi, 'Let;'s see you'll be his wife and i'lll be the daughter...gees what a life"

Cassi shook her head the famous Maxwell humor rubbed off well on Meg.

Cassi simply looked at the men, there were only half a dozen, that would not be a problem for her and Meg, she was sure of it.take the right and i'll take the left, ok with you?" she asked. Meg simply shrugged. They were both trained in martial arts, Cassi slightly stronger than Meg in the area though, but she was still good.
guards never knew what hit them as the girls attacked them, without concern that they might fire their guns. Neither girl used a weapon, all they needed were their hands and legs. Cassi flipped and knocked out half, whilst Meg side kicked and round house kicked her half, till all six were out cold.that was good exercise," Meg laughed as she picked up one of their guns and handed it to Cassi. "You were awfully tough back there."well, I have no intention of becoming the psychos wife," Cassi muttered as Meg grabbed another gun and followed her around the guards.are your intentions then?" Meg asked. "Not to be his daughter I hope."to knock the living daylights out of him."
Kaito winced slightly as he felt his body slowly begin to shut down. He franticly focused on keeping himself conscious. At least the girls and everyone back at the palace were ok. For now at least. He opened his eyes suddenly and glared at Treize. He wasn't done yet.

He kept his eyes looking at the older man as he focused on the emotions he'd felt when he thought the girls had been killed. He focused on all the negative emotions he'd felt over the last few months. Anger, fear, outright hatered filled him and he held on to them.

Treize gasped slightly as the air became thick with energy. Their hair began to float into the air as well as anything else that wasn't attached to the ground. Treize gasped slightly as he felt his own airway being blocked by some unknown force.

"What's going on?" he gasped as he let go of Kaito who, amazingly, did not fall back to the ground but seem to almost hover in the air, his eyes now closed, "What's happening?! What are you doing! Stop it!" Treize shouted in anger then gasped as his airway was blocked even more.

A moment later, there was a large boom as Treize's gundam exploded and toppled to the ground causing the grass underneither it to catch on fire. Treize backed up slightly and narrowed his eyes as he turned to glare at the boy, "This will not be my gravesite boy. If someone is to die here, it will be you, and you alone."

With that said, Treize turned to the Wing Zero and made his way to the open cockpit. Kaito, meanwhile, was still floating in the air. With a slight movement of his hand, his gun floated up, pointed at Treize, and fired. Treize screamed as the shot hit his shoulder, spurting blood all over the cockpit. He narrowed his eyes weakly at the boy. He wasn't about to let him have the last laugh.

A few moments later, he'd closed the hatch and the gundam came to life. Soon enough, the gundam took off into the air, leaving Kaito, who'd collapsed, to the fire that was now spreading over the entire area, scorching everything and anything it came into contact with.
did you hear that?" Meg asked as an explosion was heard.

Suddenly fire spread threw the base they were in like an unstoppable beast. Meg screamed as the fire spread all around her. Backing against the wall she let her body start to tramble as Cassi grabbed her arm.

'Let's keep moving this place is gonna blow" Cassi cried and Meg didnt move.

'I...i cant" She whispered.


'huh?" She asked and turned her head.

Cassi suddenly saw Meg heading into the firey wreckage of the base, Meg didnt turn away and her walk became a run.

'I know it's you" She cried and ducked as a peice of falling ceiling almost hit her. '0 i'm coming..."
watched as Meg ran into the firey base like an unstoppable force was driving her somehow.

'Meg!" She screamed and suddenly her sights caught Kaito in the distance. 'Kaito?"
rushed towards the burning hanger when suddenly she saw nothing...Wing 0 wasnt there.

'What in the?" Meg asked and suddenly the ceiling collasped.
grabbed the boards and felt them burning her hands but also her dizziness returned but she shook it off.
Meg rolled and didnt get up.

Cassi completely lost as to why Meg had just run into the old run down building near by, turned and ran to Kaito. She knelt at his side, gently lifting him up so his torso was resting in her arms. His body was limp and covered in cuts and bruises, and faint finger marks could be seen on his face.wake up," she whispered shaking him gently. "Kaito? Please..." Forcing the tears that threatened to fall from her eyes away, Cassi struggled to lift the unconscious teen off the ground, she could barely do it by herself as Kaito was remarkably heavy.on Cassi," she muttered to herself. "There's no time to be weak, not now."
finding the strength to half walk and half drag her fellow pilot away from the burning grass, Cassi moved Kaito to a fire free area of land. To tired now to carry him any further, she dropped him unceremoniously on the ground, making a silent apology as she did so. She turned to look for Meg and returned to the burning building, her eyes searching everywhere for her till she saw her lying on the ground.no..." she groaned. Running over she knelt at Meg's side, Kami knows she didn't have the strength to lift Meg, her only hope was to wake her.Meg!" she yelled at the red-head. "For Kami's sake get off your butt all ready!" That seemed to wake Meg up, as her bright red eyes snapped open. she asked. "What the? What happened?"explain later," Cassi drwaled out. "Just get up, this building is going up in flames and I don't want either of us to go with it, now move it."right, ok...pushy..." Meg muttered as she got up and moved away.

"0," she whispered and then her eyes narrowed and her teeth started to grind, "Treize." Then she looked over at Kaito who was laying there.
"Is he gonna be ok?" Meg asked.
"I don't know," Cassi responded as she slumped down onto the ground and buried her head into her knees. "Right now I just need rest. My body is sending me urgent sleep signals."
The two girls tensed slightly when they heard the ground of a vehicle pulling up but relaxed when they turned their heads to see a Sanq Kingdom Battle Jeep behind them. Duo, Quatre, Trowa, Noin and Sally all jumped up and walked over to them.
"How about you sleep on the way home," Noin said calmly with a smile as she placed her hand on her daughter's shoulder.

Quatre and Sally quickly began to check the group over before getting them all to the Jeep. Sally then called someone to put out the fire and take care of everything else at the now empty enemy base and they drove off towards the Sanq Palace.
The girls lay draped over the back seats, with Kaito between them for safety. Meg was half awake and having a quiet talk with her father, as she watched their gundams being flown over head by Trowa and Miss. Noin. She was keeping her voice down as Kaito was hurt and Cassi had fallen asleep.
"Heero's working on more antidote for you," Duo whispered. Meg simply nodded.meanwhile had arrived at his base somewhere in the chilly mountains of the Youkon in Canada. Slipping from the Wing 0 cockpit he noticed suddenly a picture plucking it from the counsel he realized it was an image of the children.
"Sir we've got the data you requested," one man said and as Treize got onto the ramp he handed them to him.
"Good," Treize said, "Tell me Baron are children dangerous?"
"Uh it depends sir," he responded.
"Yes I suppose," Treize said and ripped the image into peices and finally held the peice of where Meg's smiling face was. "I will have my revenge and this time you shall are pay dearly starting with you Meg.
