Peacecraft Mansion 6:41 PM:

Noin's laptop starts beeping as someone else tries to contact them. She presses a button and Une and Mariameia appear on the screen. Une's face convey her extreme distress of the situation at hand. Zechs stands behind Noin eager to hear what Une has to say.
"What's wrong?" Zechs asks.
"That lady was correct is saying the L1 Colony Cluster has dissolved from the Earth's FEAR Alliance. Soldier are beginning to appear everywhere in this colony. I am finding it very hard to hide the both of us," Lady Une answers. "If all possible I would like the Preventers to head in this direction. That way we can help stop this."
"I will try to contact them to do that. Right now Trowa, Duo, Wufei, Quatre, and Sally are devising a plan of action for us to take. Many countries have already sent messages saying they will lend us what is left of their mobile suit troops," Noin replies.
Une tries to answer but the connection between them is lost. Noin slaps her fists on the desk knowing that L1 Colony's frequency was jamming the signal.
"Looks like they want nothing or no one to contact the Earth," Zechs comments. "They must have been planning something like this from the very start."
Relena sits upon her bed hugging the teddy bear Heero gave her. She had his picture on her night stand once again. Silently, she let her feelings for him tear her about from the inside. A tear ran down her cheek and landed on the head of her bear. The images of Wing Zero Custom were still running through her head. She knew that L1 Colony Cluster was Heero's homeland, but how could do with a faction that wanted to destroy the peace they had worked so hard for. The thought piled on top of each other until she finally burst out into tears.
"Heero why? What did they do to you?" Relena says sobbing. "I promise that I will get you back.."

Space L1 Colony Cluster Area 7:56 PM

Zeion and his mobile suit fleet watched as the mobile suits from Colony Cluster L4's area heading towards them. They grew closer by the second but his fleet remained motionless. Some of his soldiers were getting restless just watching the enemy approaching their defensive line. Zeion's gundam's saber pointed towards the incoming enemy fleet. This was a signal to charge and engage them in battle. Tenshi no Seigi and Wing Zero were the first to arrive at the enemy fleet. Heero quickly sliced through the first ten mobile suits and they exploded. Zeion followed him and rended anyone that stood in his way either dead or immobile.
"Commander, they seem to be retreated. Should we follow?" a soldier asks.
"No let them escape for now," Zeion replies.
"I never leave a mission incomplete. I am going after them," Heero says as Wing Zero blasts off after them.
Zeion starts his gundam after Heero's and succeeds in catching Heero's gundam. Tenshi no Seigi braces its arms around Wing Zero's shoulders and slowly pulls the gundam back towards the fleet.
"I know how much your mission means to you, Mr. Yui. But my orders are orders and they will return," Zeion says calmly.
"If we let them go they will regroup and attack again," Heero retorts.
"Their forces are weak. It is not like we can not defeat them anytime we want to," Zeion replies. "Now follow orders and back down."
Heero nods in response as Zeion releases Heero's gundam. Tenshi (I will call Zeion's gundam this for short.) turns to face the troops and the colonies. Ms. Isogumi watches them from the window. She smiles and motions her hand. Tenshi blasts off in the direction of the research colony. Wing Zero and the other mobile suits follow. They all land safely inside the docking station. In the control tower of the colony a technician starts a transforming sequence of the colony. The outer surface becomes much harder and the colony begins to transform itself into a space fortress. Inside the docking station Zeion and the other pilots exit their mobile suits. Zeion removes his helmet and looks to Wing Zero. Heero jump from it and lands perfectly. Heero looks to Zeion.
"What are our orders?" Heero asks.
"We are on standby," Zeion answers. "The Earth or the other colonies won't attack for a while after our little squeamish."
"I see," Heero replies.
"What happened to your arms?" Zeion asks pointing to Heero's bandaged arms.
"I don't remember," Heero answers.
"Heero, you're back dear." Maya says suddenly hugging Heero from behind. "I was worried that you were going to get hurt."
"Maya based on the look on his face he is not enjoying that. So I suggest you stop that at once," Zeion points out.
"Zeion, your problem is that you never know when to stop being serious," Maya responds. "Besides I have to run some more tests on our young pilot, here."
Zeion gives her a look of disgust before waving her off with his hand as he turns around. Zeion walks towards his room. Maya and her bodyguards escort Heero back to her lab. On the way there Maya tries to get the silent pilot to talk.
"So how did you like your gundam?" Maya asks.
".hn.." Heero replies.
"Your next mission will be with the Commander tomorrow. You will be visiting Earth. I hear that it looks lovely, but then again you have already been to Earth," Maya says calmly. "I hear that your target is the Sanq Kingdom. Most likely you are going to assassinate Vice Foreign Minister Darlian. But after this whole things with taking over the Earth's FEAR is over then you and I can marry."
"Relena..." Heero says to himself. "No I can't! I must protect her! My promise..."
Heero falls to his knees on the floor holding the sides of his head. Memories of his past start to break through his drugged mind. He starts shaking from the sudden flood in his mind. He sees Relena walk into his room.
"Off to fight again, Heero?" Relena asks.
"You still going to kill me?" Relena asks while they dance.
"Yeah," Heero replies.
"Heero! Promise me that you will return!" Relena screams from a window.
"I promise," he replies while running off.
"Relena.. I can't... kill her... No matter how many times I have tried... Aishiteru, Relena-chan.." Heero says falling unconscious on the floor.
"So he loves that wimp of a girl. I will have to changed that now won't I? Tell Ms. Isogumi that the gundam pilot may not be in good shape to go to Earth tomorrow," Maya says looking to a bodyguard. "We are taking him downstairs to the other lab."
Two guards pick up Heero while the other rushes off to find the boss. They drag Heero down to the very last floor that hardly anyone knows that it exists. Maya chooses a room and points to it. The guards throw Heero onto the metal table and strap him down to it. Maya retrieves several items from a cabinet on the over side of the room. She places them on the counter near Heero. Maya shakes him until he finally opens his eyes. This time they are clear and not hazed over.
"What are you trying to do?" Heero asks harshly as Maya clamps a metal band around his upper arm.
"Teaching you that you should not have feelings for that brat of a girl," Maya answers.
"No matter what you do you can never change how I feel," Heero quips.
"Say what you want but it won't save you," Maya says connecting three tubes into the the three slots in the metal band.
Maya presses down on the band and Heero feels a needle pierce through his upper arm. Heero follows Maya's movements. The three tubes were connected to strange looking machine. She pressed a few buttons on the machine and three different liquids started pouring into the tubes and emptying into Heero's body. Maya stands beside his bed with her tools nearby. She strokes his bangs slightly and smiles.
"Don't worry if the pain becomes to much for you then I will give some sedatives for the procedure," Maya says picking up several wires.
Heero looks her with his signature death glare. She attaches the wires to various spots along his arms, neck, and head. The guards stand outside the door to the room in case of any disruptions. After a few minutes the liquids injected into Heero were beginning to make him cringe mentally. They were starting to cause him a throbbing headache. Soon enough all of his muscles felt like they were ripped apart. Some of them started convulsing on their own. Heero could do very little to make them stop. Suddenly it seemed as if the pain had increased in volumes. The corners of his vision were turning black and he could no longer stifle the moan of pain that shot through his throat. Maya turned from the counter she was preparing something on when she heard him moan in pain. She saw that he was withering within his bonds. He let out another moan as a wave of pain shot over him. Maya sighed and retrieved a bottle from the cabinet and started filling a syringe with its contents.
"You know you could scream out loud. No one would mind," Maya says.
"Kisama, what are you doing to me?" Heero says through his clinched teeth.
Heero pounded his head against the table as he felt his veins turn on fire. Slowly he tried to think of other things to lessen the pain. His head screamed in pain every time he tried to remember anything. He figured it out. She was trying to make it so he would not dare remember. Somehow he managed to tear through the immense pain and think about the Sanq Kingdom and his friends that were waiting for him there. He smiled to himself as he felt a tiny prick along his badly injured right forearm. Maya lifted the syringe and threw it away.
"There maybe that you keep you quiet," Maya says a little harshly and notices the smile on his face. "What could possibly be so great that you would have to smile over?"
"They are waiting... And I will keep my promise," Heero mutters as he falls unconscious.
"Strange boy," Maya says to herself.

Peacecraft Mansion 6:15 AM:

Relena awoke to the sounds of explosions in the background. She shot up from her bed and ran to the window. She could see two gundams with the angel wings fighting two Taurus just outside the city. She quickly got dressed and ran downstairs to find Sally and Hilde the only ones still at the house.
"Where is everyone?" Relena asks.
"They are in the battle. They started to attack around five this morning and have not let up since. We have been holding them off but we do not have any ammunition left," Sally replies. " And I do not know how long Trowa and Noin can last in their suits. The others are trying to contact the pilots and other things."
Without warning Relena runs passed them and towards the battle. Sally and Hilde run after her.

Battlefield 6:16 AM:

Zeion looked at the two fallen Taurus. Heero was about to slice them to bits when Zeion's gundam placed its arm in front of Heero's gundam. Heero looks at his commander strangely not understanding the action he just took. The pilots on the ground stare at the two gundams for a long while. Zeion's cockpit opens and he grabs a hold of the wire that will carry him to the ground. He wears his mask and fencing saber. Zechs stares at him in pure shock. Dorothy almost faints upon seeing him. He walks towards them with his hand on his fencing saber.
"Hello former gundam pilots and others. I represent the Isogumi Faction of the L1 colonies. My name is something that will not concern you for now. I have come from my gundam wishing to challenge one of you to a duel," Zeion says drawing his saber.
"I will be your opponent," Wufei says stepping forth with his katana raised.
"I will make you a bet. You win and I shall receive you onto the wings of metal light. Lose and paper of pen and ink shall be your prize," Zeion says taking a battle stance.
Wufei charges forth and slashes at Zeion. Zeion sidesteps and dodges the katana. Zeion parries Wufei's next strike from above. Wufei backs and attacks Zeion's legs. Zeion jumps away and dodges the attack. Wufei growls to himself as he can not make a move on the guy. Zeion slashes at Wufei only to be met with his katana. Wufei counters by charging straight forward. Zeion rotates to his side and places his fencing saber to Wufei's throat. Wufei stares at the blade in somewhat of a state of shock.
"I believe that I claim the victory," Zeion says calmly.
"Go on kill me. I have lost," Wufei says.
"How could I kill the protectors of the dove," Zeion replies. "As promised since you were defeated you shall receive paper of pen and ink."
"That was so beautiful. Your battle was so elegant," Dorothy comments.
Zeion ignores Dorothy' comment and hands Wufei a piece of paper. Wufei takes it reluctantly. The other gundam begins to move as the pilot is ready for orders. Relena gasps as she arrives on the scene. She knows that only one person would be piloting the Wing Zero. Zeion smiles at her as he turns around. He walks slowly up to her. Zechs gets between them with his gun posed at Zeion's chest.
"And if it isn't the dove of peace, herself," Zeion says sheathing his saber. "So nice of you to join us."
"Tell me who is the pilot of that gundam?" Relena asks.
"The prince of soldiers, one who can be considered the perfect one," Zeion answers. "Zero get ready to move out."
Wing Zero's head turns to look down upon the others. Tenshi picks up Zeion with its hand and places him on the edge of the cockpit door. Zeion salutes the former gundam pilots before entering the suit and sitting in the pilot's seat. Relena looks up at the Wing Zero.
"Commander, shouldn't we kill them?" Wing Zero's pilot says while pointing the buster rifle to the others.
"Killing them was not in our orders so just leave them," Tenshi seems to say.
"Heero! Is that you?!" Relena yells at the Wing Zero.
"..Relena... Ah.." Heero says then cringing in pain from his headache.
"Please do not upset her. He will suffer greatly if you do," Zeion says as he pilots Tenshi to take the Wing Zero. "He is safe now, but a Lord of Plaque tries to overwhelm his heart. I plead to you to come after him. Until that time comes farewell dear protectors of peace and your dove in which the prince of soldiers so dearly cares for."
Tenshi grabs Wing Zero by its under arms. Tenshi flaps its metal wings and the two mobile suit fly towards the sun. Relena stands and watches them until they are out of sight. A single tear falls from Relena's cheek. Soon enough she falls to her knees and starts crying. Noin walks over to her and places her hand on Relena's shoulder.
"It just can't be. Heero... He couldn't have..." Relena says through her sobbing.
"No matter how much I did not want to believe it. Heero is piloting that gundam for the Isogumi Faction," Wufei comments.
"But why would Heero join such a worthless cause?" Trowa asks.
"That man he reminds too much of him," Zechs says to himself.
"Wu-man, what about that paper he handed you?" Duo asks. "Do us all a favor and read it."

"Dear Protectors of Peace and Dove,
I am sorry for the pain that you are most likely going through. I commend you to save your Perfect Soldier. As I write this a Lord of Plaque tries to change his heart to her liking. I can not help but to feel remorse for him. Each day he comes to me looking worse than the last. But I feel helpless since there is little I can do for him. If you come after him I shall send to you the defenders of peace. Also run me a favor in telling Lady Une and Mariameia that I am sorry for running from them. Once you reach me I shall send you upon the metal wings of the defenders. And to you Zechs remember when we played together in the Sanq Kingdom? Now if you want the help of your defenders come to mansion that unleashed the purple fury you once piloted.
-Khushrenada "
"Okay that made no sense. Next question please," Duo says confused.
"Khushrenada? No, he could not have been Treize," Wufei says slightly shocked.
"He sounds like Treize and makes no sense like him," Duo adds.
"The real question is should we trust him and meet at the given point," Trowa says calmly.
"What is the given point?" Quatre asks.
"The Romefeller Mansion in Luxembourg," Zechs answers. "That is where Treize created the purple fury otherwise known as the Epyon Gundam."
"So they have Heero. But what would they want with him?" Dorothy asks.
"That is simple. They want Heero for his piloting abilities," Quatre answers.
"Then why didn't they get us as well?" Duo asks.
"Heero was born on L1 Colony Cluster so naturally they would want someone from their own sector," Trowa answers.
"We must save him. From what I get they are not treating him very well," Relena says wiping away her tears. "Even you won't help me. I will find and rescue him myself."
"Relena, now you are talking nonsense. You know that we will do everything in our power to save him," Noin retorts.
"He said something about Lady Une and Mariameia. But they are trapped within L1 Colony. So we can not contact them without interference from the computer block they have on the area," Wufei adds.
"I think I may have a way to contact them," Sally says coming out from the shadows.
"What would that be?" Zechs asks.
"Preventer Headquarters issues all Preventers a communicator that its signal can not be blocked by anything. Maybe she brought hers with her and just has not realized it yet," Sally explains.
"Let's hope so," Quatre says heading back towards Peacecraft Mansion.

Unknown Colony Docking Gate 9:13 AM:

Zeion waits for Heero to leave his suit. He already gotten word to report to Ms. Isogumi after he finished he finished boarding. He wanted to see that Heero was escorted back to his cell in the proper manner. Zeion grew worried once Heero stayed in his gundam for over three minutes. Finally the cockpit door opened with a hiss. Heero stepped on it and his legs seemed a bit shaky. Heero's body lunged forward and he fell the some odd fourteen or so meters to the concrete ground below him. He remained very still even after his fall. Zeion rushed over to the pilot making sure he was still alive. Many other pilots also surrounded him. One of them flipped Heero over and held his waist up. Heero looked calm and in a dead like state. Zeion was relieved to find Heero's heart was giving off a steady beat and that he was breathing. Zeion almost gasped when he saw a white ridge poking out from right a little below Heero's left knee. Blood covered the tip of the bone and was slowly seeping onto the concrete. Zeion gritted his teeth. He knew that a bone was not so weak that it would break from a fall like that. Only one person could have weakened his bone that much.. Maya...
"Commander he is unconscious and bleeding what should we do?" a soldier asks.
"Pick him up and follow me," Zeion says standing up.
The soldier does as told and picks Heero up and holds him. Zeion nods to him and they run off in the direction of a hallway. Somewhere after they passed security Heero started to stir. He opened his eyes very slowly and grimaced at the sudden rush of pain from his left leg. He noticed that someone was holding him and running at the same time. He looked in front of him and saw Zeion running as well. The soldiers yelled out and stopped Zeion.
"Sir, he is conscious," the soldier says.
"Heero, are you okay?" Zeion asks.
"Leg hurts.." Heero replies tiredly.
Zeion nods to the soldier and they begin to run again. Heero tries to go back to sleep, but can't due to the immense pain his open fracture was causing him. Zeion nearly tore down the door to the medical wing when he reached it. They ran inside and Zeion stopped at the desk on told the nurse on duty the situation. She nodded and called some doctor over the intercom. She escorted Zeion, the soldier, and Heero into a trauma room. The soldier gently set Heero on the bed. The nurse set to inserting an IV into his left wrist to give him the much needed liquids his body would need. She propped his injured leg onto a board to elevate it some. Heero moaned slightly as she moved it. The soldier took a hint and left for his post. Zeion whispered the nurse something before he left as well. The nurse nodded and the doctor walked in. After taking x-rays of Heero's fracture they decided it would be best to pop the bone back into place without surgery. The nurse injected the area around the fracture so that Heero would not feel as much pain when it was forced back in place.
They waited a few minutes to allow the drug to take effect. Slowly the doctor forced the bone back into place. A sickening snap signified that it was back. Heero moaned again as the bone snapped. The doctor left and the nurse went to stitching up the wound caused by the bone. Once that was accomplished she splintered the area and bandaged it firmly. Soon afterwards the nurse called a guard to escort him to his cell. She handed one of the guards a pillow and he took it. Before they picked Heero up she removed the IV in him and made him take a pill for the pain. The guards picked him up and gently carried him to his room. They delicately placed him on the small bed in the room. The other guard gently placed the pillow under Heero's broken bone. They only cuffed his arms together and left. Heero soon fell asleep afterwards.

Unknown Colony Conference Room 9:35 AM:

Zeion walked into the room and took his seat beside Maya and another official of the research colony. At the front of the table sat Ms. Isogumi. She silenced everyone in the room and the meeting began. Zeion contempted himself to act like he was paying attention. Maya was secretly playing with pencils and pens under the table. Zeion sighed to himself sometimes adults act like children when they are put in a boring room with a boring talker at the front. What he heard from the boss was something about attacking the Earth from whatever direction.
"Did you get that commander because this is where the gundam pilot and yourself come in. You are to central your attack through the right flank of the enemy's troops. From there you descend to Earth and finish taking over the Sanc Kingdom," Ms. Isogumi explains.
"Yes, I will be sure that the Sanc Kingdom falls," Zeion replies.
"Good. Then after the initial takeover if Relena Darlian is not already dead, assassinate her," Ms. Isogumi adds.
"Yes ma'am," Zeion responds.
The next few what seemed like hours were spent as Ms. Isogumi rambled on and on about her plans for world domination. Zeion and some of the others did not hear half of it due to their shear boredom. When she declared the meeting over it seemed as if everyone could not get to the door fast enough.. Maya headed off towards her lab, but she and Zeion were stopped by a guard.
"Excuse me, but I have the orders from the medical wing as you requested, sir," the guard says.
"Well?" Zeion questions.
"The doctor says to allow him to rest for the rest of today before anything is done to him," the guard answers.
"What happened to Heero?" Maya asks.
"Broke his left leg right below his knee. It was an open fracture from falling from his gundam," Zeion says giving Maya a harsh look.
"Why are you staring at me like that?" Maya asks.
"I just wonder what could have made his bone so weak in that area that it created a fracture that bad," Zeion says walking off.

Peacecraft Mansion 10:19 AM:

Noin was trying all morning to contact Une from her communicator issued by the Preventor's Headquarters. Wufei was sitting in a corner meditating. Sally was sitting in the chair next to him running reports on her laptop. Zechs was in the other room with Trowa trying to muster up as many intact or usable mobile suits as possible. Hilde and Duo were fixing a light brunch for everyone. Quatre and Rashid were investigating which colonies had turned traitor and which one could lend them help in the upcoming battle. Dorothy was sitting on her unhelpful self butt (1). Relena was helping Zechs and Trowa get a hold of the other countries.
"Une are you there?" Noin asks.
"This is Une over." Une's voice came from the videophone.
"I am so happy to hear that you are alive and well," Noin replies.
"Things are not going so great in the colony L1 area. Everyone is either on Ms. Isogumi's side or being held hostage in their own houses," Une explains. "Mariameia and I have found shelter from them and are trying to find a way out."
"That is good that they can not find you," Noin responds. "We will try to send a carrier to pick you up as soon as there is an opening to do so."
"We both thank you for your kind concerns about us," Une replies.

Duo walks into the room and hands everyone a snack before he decides to grab the food and run. He takes a seat on the floor by Wufei and looks over to Sally's report. Duo eats his snack in two gulps and watches everyone hustle about.
"So who is going to old mansion belonging to Romefeller?" Duo asks.
"I was going to leave that one up to Zechs," Sally says loud enough for Zechs to hear.
"Wufei, Duo, and myself are going around noon," Zechs answers. "We will be back after whatever goose chase this guy is sending us on is over."
"You are teaming me with Wu-man? What fun..." Duo says sarcastically.
"Not a picnic to stay with you either, Maxwell," Wufei says keeping his eyes closed.
"And if I find out you two have been misbehaving some consequences are in order," Hilde says motioning slitting her throat.
Later that day Zechs, Duo, and Wufei depart for Luxembourg on Noin's blue jet. The others stay behind and prepare the Earth and other colonies for war. Zechs, Duo, and Wufei reach the mansion with ease and find it deserted.
"You think they would at least have a welcome committee," Duo jokes.
Wufei and Zechs ignore his comment and run into the mansion with their gun drawn. Duo sighs and runs after them with his machine gun in hand. They Watch the shadows for any sort of trap or soldier sent to attack them. They reach the study and they start to hear the sound of machinery. Slowly they turn to the noise but are stopped by a hologram of Zeion with his mask on.
"Welcome defender of peace. If you are here then you have taken my message to heart. I thank you for that and promise that your efforts will not go unrewarded. Unlike Ms. Isogumi I see no point in attacking an opponent that can not fight back well," the hologram Zeion explains. "For a few months now I have been developing my gift to you in my hanger with my best engineers. I just hope you will find some use for them. Keep in mind this only part of my gift the rests' locations will be given to you in time."
The hologram walks to a lion statue and points to a card right beside it. Duo walks over and swipes the card through the slot in the lion statue. The bookshelf adjacent to them raises up to reveal a mobile suit storage area. Inside the area was Epyon and Nataku standing against the wall ready to be piloted. The hologram smiles and disappears.
"No fair you guys get your gundams and I get nothing," Duo whines.
"Why would this guy help us out?" Wufei asks standing below Nataku.
"The hologram said something about not seeing a point in fighting someone who can not protect themselves," Duo comments.
"So maybe he wants this fight to have some trump cards to both sides of the players in the game," Zechs adds.
"So how are we going to take these to Sanc Kingdom? Noin's carrier can only carry one gundam," Duo says scratching his head.
"Zechs, fly yours to Sanc Kingdom. Mine is not built for air travel," Wufei says preparing to get Nataku outside.
Wufei loads Nataku onto the carrier with Duo's help. Zechs enters Epyon and waits for Duo and Wufei to launch the carrier before following along side them. After the carrier is safely in the air Epyon transforms into its bird mode and follows them.
"Why does Zechs have to show off? I mean the first few tricks were okay, but after thirty or so it gets old," Duo says calmly.
"He is just testing the controls out. He has to make sure they all work," Wufei replies. "Or has it been so long that you have forgotten that a pilot does not his mobile suit to be touched?"
"Nope. Heero taught me that one the hard way," Duo replies with a cheesy smile.

Unknown Space Colony Cell 11:58 AM:

Heero slowly opened his eyes to the darkened room of his cell. He felt nothing but slight numbness emitting from his leg. He was grateful for that. He smiled to himself as he saw the nurse was kind enough to give him a pillow for his broken bone. Somehow the people in this base treated him more like a human than any other person or faction he was captured by. The only exception was Maya, the one who loved to test him. Heero sat up and laid his back against the wall behind him. He glanced to the floor and found his lunch tray. He decided to eat on account of his growing number of injuries. Once again he had a protein bar, fruit juice, a small sandwich with cheese and ham on it, and finally sliced celery. Setting to the side of his fruit juice was a white pill with a note beside it. Heero placed the tray on his lap and read the note.
"Dear Heero Yui,
I am sorry for the accident with your leg. It most likely pains you right now. Either that or the painkillers they gave you haven't worn off yet. I suggest you eat everything that my soldiers have brought to you. You will need the nutrients to heal. The pill was given to me by the doctor. He said you should take it when you start to feel pain in that leg. If you don't need it right this moment place it in your pocket until you do.
- Zeion"
Heero looked at his jeans and sighed. He placed the pill in his pocket. His clothes were in tatters. His tank top was almost intact except for a few tears along the bottom of it. The lower left side on his jeans were barely clinging to the rest. His right side had lots of tears in it from slightly above his knee and down. His pale yellow hiking shoes were the only things that were graciously left undamaged. Heero mentally cringed at the dirt that had collected within the tiny pores of his skin. He was naturally a yellowish tan due to his Japanese blood, but he was even more so now. For once he would do anything for a bath. He looked at his food and began eating it. Once finished he set the tray on the floor and laid back against the wall. That is when he heard someone outside swiping their key card through the slot. He could only guess at who it was, Maya and her guards.
"What does she want now? I bet she just wants me for another one of her tests or try to pry the memories from my head again," Heero thinks to himself. "I must keep fighting no matter how many times she tries to rob me of my memories."

-----To Be Continued....

After what most likely seems like years to you I finally finished chapter four. Well sorry to leave you hanging, but I will have the next chapter up ASAP. So review and wait!

(1) - Sorry for all you Dorothy fans out there but I rather not like her. She gets on my nerves with her talks about "start a war" or "That was perfect Ms. Relena". I hate it that she keeps saying Ms. Relena and acts like she (Dorothy) is the best there is.
