Realization of Evil
The flight from Earth to the L5 cluster, seemed to take forever. Though much relived to be back in space, Faith couldn't seem to shake her concerns about what they were headed out to do. That, and the fact that her period had decided today was a good day to start it's monthly visit, had her squirming in her seat. Koneko had chosen to sleep on the flight and thus was unaware of her partner's discomfort.

Back at Preventers HQ…
“I don't care about needed an appointment. I have to see Director Une NOW!” The demure secretary cringed at Duo's tone. Heero's death glares didn't help matters much. “I'll…just buzz her sir.” She stammered. Pressing a button on her phone, the lady began talking. “Director? Agent Wing and Agent Darkness are here to see you?” “Send them in.”
Duo was through the door before the com had even closed properly. “Where the hell is my daughter and what have you had her doing?” Une stood behind her desk trying to think the best way to answer. She had figured that sooner or later Faith's parents would track her down. For Faith's sake, she was glad the girl was already headed to L5.
Une schooled her face and took command of the situation. “If you'll have a seat Agent Darkness, I'll explain to the best of my ability.” Duo took one of the chairs across from her and Heero silently slid into the other. Une took her own chair and steeple her hands on the desk. “First, Agent Fate is off on assignment. I can't tell you where or what. It's top secret. Second, what she'd been up to is school work and special training for this assignment. I think you'll be happy to know that she's made up the entire missed semester of school in the past month's time.”
Duo couldn't help but smile at that. “That's my little girl.” Heero, though just as proud, coughed slightly to draw attention to himself. “And just where did the Zero system fit into all this?” Une was taken back slightly. “The Zero system? But that was destroyed…” Heero finished for her. “With Wing Zero. That's what I thought too. At least until I received this…” He held up the `Don't Kill Me' disk. “…in the mail from Faith.”
Une reached forword. “May I have a look?” Heero handed over the disk with a nod. Une poped it into he computer and in a matter of moments, her eyes were popping out of her head. “She's restructured some of these codes! When did…so that's what she was up to in the hanger bay!”
Duo nearly jumped out of his seat. “The Hanger! With THIS!?! She wouldn't…she couldn't…she…” Heero put a hand on his shoulder. “She probably did Koi. She's always had an unhealthy fascination with that demon.” Heero looked back over at Une. “Any idea where she could have gotten it from?”
By this time, the Director of Preventers was beside herself. An Agent, a Junior Agent at that, working with one of the most deadly remnants of the war, right under her nose. “I…think I might know. I gave her a box Doctor G had left for her in his will. Koneko reported it only had some junk and the mission reports from DeathScythe in it. I would have never thought he'd give her the Zero system!”
