Gundam Wing Fan Fiction ❯ New Friends ❯ New Person ( Chapter 3 )

She walked down the street watching every face that passed her. She knew she had a family. An older brother and sister but she didn't know where. She was told her last name was Bloom. Or was that wrong? She couldn't keep it straight. Her head was filled with lots of things. She was lost in her thoughts when she ran into someone
"Oh God, I'm sorry. I wasn't paying attention." She said looking at whom she ran into. The girl was completely white
"It's okay." Kathryn held out her hand "Names' Kat." The girl took it.
"I'm called Alice. Nice to bump into you." Kat noticed that her hair was long and brown, just like Duo's but not in a braid. Alice thought it was creepy that this Kat girl was so white.
Kathryn got a giant smile on her face "Hey! Want to be my special friend that eats worms?!?"
Alice just gave her a blank stair. "Are you serious?"
Kathryn just kept her smile up. Alice smiled back "Okay. But can they be gummy worms? I'm trying to cut back."
"Yea, I guess."
"Hey there Kat, whose your new friend?" duo asked coming up from behind the two girls.
"This is my new special friend that eats worms."
"How many people have you asked that question since we been in town?"
"54 and only two have said yes. She one of them. I think that other guy was on something. Is that my food?"
Duo reached into the bag he held "Here you go. One cheeseburger. And here's your change." Kathryn shoved the change in her pocket. "Well it was nice to meet Alice, but we have to go now. Maybe will bump into one another again."
"Wait maybe you can help me? I'm looking for a tall guy named, Trowa, I believe. I was told he might know my family. He worked in a circus with my long lost sister, or so I was told. Do you know him?"
Kathryn pulled Duo's ear to her mouth "Should we take her? Trowa might know more of what she's talking about." Duo nodded to what she said and told Alice,
"Actually we work with him. Why don't you come with us and we'll take you to him."
"Oh my god. You guys are awesome! I so own you one." Alice followed them back to their car. Kathryn ate her food in two bites and jumped around merrily. Duo just sighed and shook his head.
"This is Duo." Kathryn said, pointing to him. "He has a hard time understanding why I am the way I Am." She smiled big "so Alice, who told you that Trowa would know your family?"
"Some guy that was helping me fined my family. But he got killed in that last gundam battle."
"That's sad to hear." Kathryn said
"No not really. I don't have to pay him now." Alice said in monotone voice. "So Kat, why are you white?"
"Evil mad scientist." she answered as they got into the car. "He used me as a genie pig."
"Shit. Why?" Alice said buckling up
"Don't know, mad scientists never need a reason why."
"Yea, that's true. So, is Duo your boyfriend?"
Kathryn started laughing. "No, just someone I work with. Plus I use him for rides. I can't drive yet. Well the law says I can't drive yet."
"Wow, how old are you then?"
"13, and yourself?"
"15"
"Kewl"
Duo turned on the radio, and put the volume loud. Kathryn just laughed.

As the car pulled into the driveway Kate ran up.
"Where's my food?"
Kathryn looked in the bag at her feet. "Oh shit. I'm sorry. It seems we forgot to get you your food. I'm sorry sis."
Kate got an evil look in her eyes "that's always like you. I ask you to bring me back something and like always you forget. I hate you."
"But I love you." Kathryn said holding up a bag.
Kate smiled and grabbed it. "Hell yeah!" she said as she did a happy dance.
"Oh yea, Kate, this is Alice. Alice this is my twin sister Kate." Kathryn said point her finger at one another when she called off their names.
"Twin sister?" Alice questioned,
"Yea, I was the lucky one who didn't turn white." Kate said all proud "instead I was taught to be a evil mad scientist."
Kathryn gave her a piss off look. "Quiet you! Duo you have my permission to run her over."
Duo sighed. "Okay that's it, everyone out! You're all driving me insane."
Kathryn smiled as she open her door. "Then my mission is complete." She got out of the car along with Alice. Duo waved to them then left to park the car. Kathryn started walking towards the gaint house. Kate turned to Alice and asked,
"So why are you here?"
"I was told that a guy named Trowa Barton could help me find my family. I ran into duo and Kat in town and they said they know him so now I'm here; looking for Trowa."
"Oh. Well last I saw him he was working inside." Kate looked at her sister, "Yo, whitey, why don't you go get him."
"Don't call me that, your hore monkey you! Don't worry; I'll go get Trowa. Be right back" Kathryn waved a little good-bye as she headed inside the house.

"So you're the hore monkey?" Alice asked Kate.

Kate shot her a look, then sighed. "Yeah, but only on days ending in `y'."

Alice nodded to her comment, and attempt at a joke.

Kate sighed. "So you here trying to find your family?"

Alice nodded, "yep."

Kate kicked at the dirt. "So, can i know anything about you?"

Alice shoved her hands in her pockets. "Nope. Well, not yet at least."

Kate nodded. There was awkward silence until Alice spoke up again. "So, about your sister, were you guys telling the truth, about the sister thing, cuz you guys look nothing alike."

Kate smiled and look at her. "Yep! We were both lab rats except when all was said and done, she came out as Pinky and I came out as Brain."

Alice just stared at her.

"Hey you hoes!!! I found him!" Kat yelled from the door.

Kate turned and yelled to her sister, "Coming Pinky!"
Kat just stared at her...and a moment of silence fell upon the three. Trowa walked around the corner to see what was up. He looked at the new girl.
"What's up? Why am I here?" he asked Kathryn. She pointed to Alice.
"She said that she was told that a guy name Trowa Barton could help her locate her family. Seeing as how your name at this time is Trowa Barton, I thought she was talking about you."
"Oh. Well I'll go talk with her. She might have mistaken about the name. But I'll see." Trowa said walking with Kathryn to meet the new girl standing next to Kate.
Alice leaned over to Kate's ear "Is that Trowa?" Kate nodded `yes'. "He's cute!" Kate gave her a weird looked.
Trowa walked up to them. "I was told you were looking for me. How might I be of service?"
"Yeah, I was told that you might have knowledge of my family. From what I was told, my long lost older sister works in a circus with you. Her name is, ugh, dammit. I forgot again. Well, at least I have a picture of her. Here." She handed Trowa a folder with a photo of the girl inside. "So, do you know her?"
Trowa looked at the photo "Yeah, this is Catherine Bloom. She and I are good friends. She's your sister, huh? I'll have to call her later on and let her know. She's not on earth at the moment. The circus is on one of the colonies for the time being."
"Cool. Thank you so much. Let me know when you're going to call later. Come get me or something. I want to talk to her."
"Alright, I can do that. Well, I have to get back to my work. See you three later." With that said and done, Trowa walked back inside.
"Well," Kathryn said "I need to go talk to Duo. Kate do you think you can handle Alice for a while. I'll be back. Why don't you show her around or something? Catch you two later." Kathryn ran off before Kate could do anything to stop her.
"So, um, yeah. Now what?" Alice asked
Kate looked dumb founded. "Well I guess we could go to the kitchen and eat ice cream?"
"Sounds good to me. Kitchen raiding!" Alice yelled throwing her hands up in the arm.
Kate laughed, "We're gonna to be good friends."

Finding Duo to talk to him was a lie. Kathryn just wanted to get away from everyone and think. She headed towards the garden to a tree that was good to climb and had a comfrey place to sit. She didn't know how long she was up in the tree before she her someone coming. `Good thing this a good hiding spot too.' She thought as the person came closer.
"I know you're up there, Kat. Whatcha thinking about?" it was Duo
"Just about stuff. What brings you out here?"
"Dinner time. But I'm not to sure what it is. Smells funny." He said, watching her climb out of the tree.
"I never know what they're feeding us here. It all ways smells funny to me." She smiled "Oh well at least it's a free meal. Do you know if Relena will join us?"
"No. No one has seen her in a few days. Though they know she's in her office, she never comes out."
"Then he has gotten to her. Shit. This is bad. Really, really bad. Just like the food." She walked inside.
Duo laughed. "Yeah, that's true." The door closed behind them.
