The Reunion of Two Pilots

Chapter 3: First Mission and First Encounter

"Mission Complete." Heero finished typing the log for the scientists to read later. Closing his computer, he turned his chair towards Quatre. "How's Trowa doing? He got hit pretty hard during the fight."

"I'm finishing wrapping the rest of his wounds now." Quatre tied the gauze that was on Trowa's arm. "Dammit Trowa, you could have kiled yourself today. You need to be more careful."

"I'm sorry," Trowa said softly. "I'm strill trying to get the hang of Heavyarms. I stil haven't remembered all that I lost when I had amnesia."

"Quatre sighed. "I know. I'm sorry I snapped at you. You're my best friend, Trowa. I don't want to lose you. Not like I did my father." His eyes filled with tears.

Trowa put a hand on Quatre's cheek. "And you won't. I promise to be more careful. Come now, let me see you smile." Quatre gave him a small smile. Trowa smiled back. "That's my blonde angel," he said as he kissed Quatre gently on the forehead.

Heero turned around to give the two of them some privacy. Just then he got a sickening feeling. 'Hannah...."

Hey guys! How did the mission go?" Duo asked as he walked into the hanger.

"Better than expected." Trowa winced as he put weight on his right foot. Quatre moved up to him to give him support.

Heero looked at the American pilot. "Is my sister around? I need to talk to her."

Duo shook his head. "Hannah and Wufei left for a mission a couple of days ago."

"Where did they go?" Quatre asked as he got Trowa situated in a chair. Trowa smiled gratefully at the blonde.

"On a mission somewhere in Australia. They're there to destroy a OZ base. They should be back in a couple of days."

Heero's eyes furrowed. "A mission already?" She only just got here. Why one so early?"

Duo shrugged. 'Beats me." He blinked when Heero turned and headed toward the hanger where Wing Zero was being held. "Where ya going?"

Heero turned back to Duo and the American pilot was taken aback at the glimps of worry in the Japanese pilot's eyes. "After them. I have a bad feeling about what's going to happen."

Amanda walked into a tiny little inn that sat on the outskirts of Tokyo and went to a booth close to the back. She layed her head on the table, and tried to get herself to stop shivering. 'Damn, I never knew Japan would be THIS cold!' She raised her head and looked out the window and stared at what was to be where her parents lived. 'It might be cold this time of year, but it sure is beautiful here....'

A waitress walked up to her. "Can I get you anything ma'am?"

Before Amanda could say no, a young man spoke up. "We'll take two cups of tea, and two of your special."

Amanda didn't look away from the window. "I don't need your charity."

"Who said it was charity? I just noticed that you were shivering hard enough to start a earthquake, and the same thing goes for your stomach. I heard it growl from the other side of the room." The young man slid into the booth seat across from her and Amanda looked at him. He was young, probably no older than nineteen or twenty, with hair as black as night that stuck out in different and eyes a rich brown. He had a scar on his left cheek, probably from battling, but even Amanda wasn't sure. He had a sword sitting next to him, and a cloak wrapped around a beige jacket that Amanda noticed had a rip in the arm. Around his forehead was a long red ribbon.

"Well, arigato," Amanda muttered. "I was taught never to turn down kindness from a stranger."

"Apparently whoever taught you taught you well."

The waitress then arrived with their drinks. "Your food should arrive in about 15 minutes," she told them before leaving.

The young man picked up his cup. "What's your name?"

Amanda looked at him warily. "How do I know I can trust you?"

He shrugged. "That's up to you I guess." He took a sip of his tea.

Amanda was quiet before picking up her own cup. "Amanda Yashima." She took a drink and was greatful when the warmth started to go through her body. She looked up at the young man. "What are you?"

"What about me?"

She rolled her eyes. "Your name baka."

A small smirk appeared on his face. "Domon Kasshu. For a kid, you sure have a mouth."

Amanda tensed. "I'm NOT a kid."

"How old are you then?"

A moment of silence. "Thirteen, and if you say anything about it, I'll shove that cup up your ass."

Domon chuckled. "Thirteen? Why are you doing out here by yourself?"

"I ran away."

"Why?"

"Reason I don't want to talk about right now."

Domon didn't press it any further and a moment later their food arrived. Amanda took off her jacket and sat it to the side so she wouldn't get food on it. "Nice jacket," Domon said.

"It's my sister's." Amanda picked up a fork and began to eat.

"You seem to care a lot about her if you making sure not to get food on the jacket."

"I didn't run away to get away from my family. I ran away to get away from the life I was leading," Amanda looked down, refusing to talk anymore about it. Domon raised a eyebrow but said nothing and began to eat as well.

They were both silent for a few minutes, except from a couple of yawns from the young girl, before Amanda asked, "How old are you?"

"Twenty."

"Really? I could have SWORN you were only sixteen."

Domon threw a pea at her. "Don't push it kid." He smiled to himself as she laughed. 'At least she warming up to me. I wonder why she ran away though. She seems to clam up whenever we talk about her past.'

"Domon?"

Domon shook himself out of his thoughts. "Yeah?"

Amanda looked up from her plate. "Would it be alright if I tag along with you for awhile? I mean, until I find what I'm looking for?"

Domon smiled. "No problem. Now eat that food. I'm not buying it just so it can get cold."

Amanda smiled back. "Alright." A comfortable silence instilled them as they began to eat.

Somewhere in the outback of Australia....

"Damn, it's hot out here." Hannah wiped some sweat from the back of her neck.

Wufei took the hairtie out of his hair and gave it to Hannah. "Here, I have another one back in Nataku."

"Wufei...." Before Hannah could protest, Wufei got behind her and began to but it into a ponytail. "Don't worry, I'll be fine." 'What the hell am I doing? I shouldn't be doing this!!"

Hannah froze as Wufei touched her hair. As he put her hair up she thought, 'His hands feel really good, and he looks good with hia hair down.' She blinked in surprise. 'Kami-sami! Why am I thinking like this? I can't possibily like him.... can I!?!"

"Your hair's up now," Wufei said as he let go of her hair quickly and tried to regain control of himself."

"A-arigato, but are you sure you'll be alright with your hair down? You look kinda hot," Hannah said, worried.

Wufei got up from the desert floor. "You worry too much. Come on, let's get into the base and get this mission over with." He held his out. Hannah was hesitant for a moment before grabbing it. Just as he was pulling her up Wufei heard something. He pulled Hannah up a little harder than he intended as he turned his head to see what the sound was.

"Hey!" Hannah felt herself get yanked up hard and slammed into Wufei's chest.

"Oof!" Wufei turned his head to see what hit him and found himself looking into beautiful colbat blue eyes.

Hannah had to suck in a breath as she stared back into Wufei's emotion filled black eyes. She back away slightly and looked down, trying to get control of herself. "Gomen nasai," she said softly. She turned and started walking back to where they hid their gundams. "Come on, let's get this over with."

Wufei ran a hand through his hair and took a deep breath before following her. 'I'm going to kill Duo and Doctor J when I get back.'

"Amuro, is everything ready for the plan?" Milliardo looked away from the gun he was setting on the Epyon and looked at his friend.

"Yeah, it's all set." Amuro sounded as if he was thinking about something else.

"Hey Amuro, you alright?"

Amuro looked up from his Taurus. "Hai, I'm just worried about Christina and Amanda. I hope they're not in trouble."

Milliardo patted his friend on the shoulder. "I know, I hope so too." Just then the base alarm went off. A solider ran into the hanger. "Colonel Zechs, Lieutenant Amuro, two gundams have been spotted about two miles from the base and heading fast!"

"Which ones?" Zechs asked as he got into Epyon's cockpit.

"One of them is Gundam 05 sir."

"What about the other one?" Amuro asked, getting into his own mobile suit.

"I don't know Lieutenant. I'm guessing it's the new gundam we heard about."

A loud blast was heard from the other side of base, making the hanger shake violently. "Kuso! Come on Amuro, we've got to stop them, before they destroy the whole base!"

"Roger." Amuro followed Milliardo out onto the battlefield.

"Dammit! Wing Zero, can't you go any faster?!?" Heero was pushing Wing Zero to its limits, trying to make it to Australia in time. "Kuso! Not more mobile dolls! Hannah, you better be there when I get there, or I'll kill you myself!" he yelled as he took the beam saber out to destroy couple dozen mobile dolls.

"Hannah, do you have the bomb ready to blow up the place?" Wufei yelled into the intercom as he blew up a couple of Aries mobile suits.

"Don't worry about it! I have it under.... KUSO!" Hannah stopped Dragonfire, making it skid across the desert floor.

"What is it?!?"

"It's Zechs!" Hannah pulled out her beam saber and turned it on. "Wufei, take care of the base, I'll take care of Zechs!"

"Hannah wait!" But Hannah had already ended transmission and was heading towards Epyon. "Baka girl, be careful," he said before having Altron's extendable arms destroy two mobile suits.

As Hannah zoomed towards the Epyon, she also noticed Amuro's Taurus suit. "Dammit Amuro!" she cursed as she put her goggles over her eyes. "Why couldn't you stay out of this?"

Just then a picture came on screen. Hannah looked up to see Zechs with his mask on. "This is Zechs Merguise of the Gundam Epyon. Identify yourself and your gundam, pilot."

Hannah stopped Dragonfire several hundred feet from Epyon. "I am Hannah Yuy of the Gundam Dragonfire, now step aside before I'm force to kill you, and believe me, I won't hesitate to."

Zechs looked at the young girl on the screen. She had goggles over her eyes, so it was hard to see what she looked like. All he noticed was that she had shoulder length brown hair pulled back. "Yuy, huh? I don't suppose you're related to the pilot of 01?"

"That's none of your damn business, now get out of my way!!"

"I'm afraid I can't do that."

"Then prepare to fight!" With that she lunged at him.

Zechs pulled out his own sword and shield and met her halfway. For long moment all that happened between was swords hitting each other and close calls. 'This girl is good,' Zechs thought to himself. 'but her fighting style seems familliar.'

Amuro was thinking the same thing. 'Who is she?' Suddenly she spin kick, trying to hit Epyon in the side, and horror hit him. 'Kami-sama no! Christina!'

Zechs saw a weak spot in the kick and slammed the plasma sword into Dragonfire's side.

Hannah screamed as she felt the electical shock from the hit. Her hand hit the comunication button as she let out another scream when Zechs hit her gundam again. "Hannah!" Wufei yelled in alarm. "What's happening over there?!"

"Wufei, blow up the base now!" Hannah cried out as she got hit again, the electricty hitting and cutting her.

"No, I'm coming to help you!" He got ready to blast over to her when Wing Zero flew past her.

"Wufei, I got her! Blow up the base!" Wufei said nothing as he flew over to get in range for the bomb.

"Hannah, hang on!" Heero yelled as he got out Wing Zero's beam saber so he could fight Zechs.

"Heero!" Hannah cried out just before the pain became too much and she passed out.

'I've got to stop him!' Amuro thought franticially as he flew over there, not realizing that Wufei was going to blow the base.

"Time to finished the job," Zechs raised his sword to finish the gundam when he heard two voices.

"Zechs, stop!"

"Don't you dare hurt my sister!" Zechs looked over in time to see Wing Zero charge into him, slamming him away from the mangled Dragonfire.

"Hang on Hannah!" Grabbing Dragonfire from under the arms, Heero blasted his sister away to safety, just as he heard the base blow up. A few minutes later he saw Altron fly up next to him.

"How's Hannah?" Wufei asked, worried.

"Not too good. We have to get her back so Quatre can treat her. I don't know how long she has."

"Let's go then!" As they blasted back to headquarters, Wufei thought angerly, "I'll kill that son of a bitch if anything happens to her.

'What just happened?' Milliardo asked himself in shock. '01 has a sister?'

"Milliardo, what in the hell where you thinking? You weren't suppose to kill the pilot!" Amuro yelled. 'Especially if that pilot's my sister! Dammit Christina, what the fuck were you thinking?'

"Amuro, calm down. I didn't kill her, and beside, right now we have bigger things to worry about, like how are we going to explain this to Treize?"

Amuro looked over at what was suppose to be the base, was now nothing but rubble. "Crap...." he said grimly as he sunk into his seat.

As Domon drove down the deserted highway, he felt a sudden weight on his shoulder. Looking down, he saw Amanda fast asleep, a small smile on her face. 'She must be exausted, from the way she was yawning at the inn.' Just then a shiver excaped her. Removing his cloak without waking Amanda, he draped it over her shoulders. The shivers stopped and Amanda shifted closer to Domon, making his face pink slightly.

'What the hell is wrong with me? She's just a kid!' Just then his cellphone rang and he answered it. "Yeah?" He listened for a minute. "It's finished? Yeah, I'm about 4 hours away from you. I'll be there as soon as I can. Oh and I'm bringing someone with me. Yeah, thanks Doc." He shut off the phone and looked down at the sleeping brunette and sighed. "What the hell did I just get into with you?" he muttered as he headed towards his destination.
