Code Name: Rain

By: Quatre Raberba Winner (Quarter-Chan/Onna-Quatre)

I don't know when it started, but my life has been far from normal. My code name is Ame; a name fit for someone like me or so they say, but what kind of person am I?

I'm sitting in large conference room with my partner, Hikaru and our boss, Chris Walker.

Chris is the leader of the organization I have been working for, for the past two and a half years. The organization called Blood Fang.

He looks at us with a small smirk crossing his face. He must have plans for us to kill someone again.

"Ame, Hikaru, this next assignment is going to be a tough one. We have orders to kill the Gundam pilots, but one must be eliminated first."

"Which one?" Hikaru asked.

"The pilot of 05, WuFei Chang. He must be killed first because he knows too much about most of the organizations, here and in space. It's just a matter of time before he discovers us."

"Leave it to me. I'll make sure he gets no where near this base." Hikaru stood up and started to walk to the door.

"Actually, I would like Ame to take care of this."

I looked at the black haired girl by the door, then at my superior, "Why me?"

"Because you are from the colonies. You also have a Gundam, if they see you fighting with your Gundam Rain, they will think you are an ally. And if you can gain all of their trust, we'll be able to kill all of them at once, but for now your target is the pilot of 05, got it?"

I stood up and saluted, "Yes Sir." I walked passed Hikaru and left the room.

Chris walked over to the longhaired girl, "Make sure she doesn't fail, Hikaru. She's a great ally, but she'll make a worse enemy."

~~~

The G-boys were planning their next plan of attack at their current safe house.

Duo walked into his bedroom and saw Heero typing away on his laptop, "Come up with anything?"

"Maybe. Our next mission is at this," he pointed to the screen, "location. If we sneak in the back we should be able to enter unnoticed, but my main concern is Quatre."

"But I thought you loved me?" he squeaked.

"I do, but it's allergy season. He'll be sneezing up a storm. I admire the fact that he still wants to go on the mission, even though he's not feeling that great. He'll probably make more noise on this mission, than you do in a month."

"But not all my noises are bad." He walked over to his kobito and put his arms around him, "Right, Heero?"

The Japanese boy smiled and blushed, "Right, but we need to be extra careful. If Quatre starts to get worse, we have to make a hasty retreat."

"Heero, why do care about him so much?"

"Because, I promised Trowa that when we went on a mission, I would protect him."

Duo shook his head, "You're lying."

"Hn. Well if you want to know the truth, I really don't know.. ."

~~~

I sat in my room and looked at the coordinates for my target's next mission, "The OZ base south of here." I sighed, "Why do I have to kill them?"

I got out of my chair and walked over to the mirror. I grabbed the brush from my nightstand and started to brush my brown hair. I had to be ready for my mission. I wore a purple and white shirt, an aqua band around my chest, a pair of purple pants and white boots.

I sighed again and put the brush down and tied my black bandana around my head and put on my white gloves, "There is no point in killing these guys. After all the research I've done, I can't find any reason to carry this out, except it was an order." I walked into the closet and grabbed my black cape and armor. I put them on and reached for my black belt, "Can't leave without something to increase my power with." I put it on and walked toward the mobile suit hanger.

~*~*~*

I sat in a cold dark cell in the OZ base. I had left late the night before, but was caught once I made it to the location, "Mission failure.. ." I muttered.

A small amount of light filled the cell, as five new prisoners were pushed in. One had short brown hair and Prussian blue eyes. The one behind him had a long chestnut braid and large violet eyes. The one next him had a brown uni-bang and emerald green eyes. And in his arms was another person. This person had platinum blond hair and blue eyes and right now, those eyes were filled with pain. And last, but not least a person with short black hair that was tied back into a ponytail and onyx colored eyes. The Gundam pilots.

"Hey guys, we got another cellmate!" Duo called pointing over to me.

"Typical, just like a women to screw everything up." WuFei snarled.

"For your information, I've been here since last night. I got mission orders to destroy this base and I got caught."

Trowa looked at me, "But I thought only Gundam pilots got missions to destroy OZ."

"I am a Gundam pilot. My mobile suit is hidden in the woods right behind this base."

"I thought I saw a mobile suit. Who do get your orders from?" Heero questioned.

"I can't say." I looked at the blond laying the floor. I stood up and walked over to him.

"Do you live around here?" the longhaired pilot asked.

"No. I go where and when I'm needed. I don't need to live anywhere. I'll just end up moving again, that's also why I don't have any friends." I knelt beside the injured boy, "What happened to you?"

"I was shot in my leg.. ." he replied.

I looked at his leg. Blood was leaking onto the cold metal floor. I scanned the room and spotted a pair of tweezers. I stood up and walked over and picked them up. Not questioning how and why they're there I walked back over to the fallen pilot. "If I help you, what's in it for me?"

"I'll be your friend."

"Quatre," Trowa looked at his lover, "she shouldn't have to ask you for anything."

"I know Trowa, but it's so unfair for someone not to have at least one friend."

I nodded and knelt beside him once again, "This is going to hurt a lot."

He nodded and took Trowa's hand in his.

I took the tweezers and gently pulled out the bullet that was now covered in the blood of the small Arabian.

"Now what are you going to do about the bleeding, woman?!"

I put my hands over the wound. A white glow spread over Quatre's leg. In a matter of moments the injury was gone.

"You can use magic?" Duo asked.

"It's not something I'm proud of."

"Well good for you. Now that that's over, we MEN can think of a way out of here." The Chinese pilot glared at me. His voice was harsh, but eyes were soft.

"I can get you out of here."

Heero arched an eyebrow, "How?"

"Just take cover over there." I pointed to the back of the room.

They nodded and moved out of the way.

"Flare.. ." an arrow of flames appeared in between my hands, "Arrow!" I fired the arrow towards the cell door.

The door exploded and I looked at my cellmates as the smoke started to clear, "Come on."

They nodded and ran towards the door. The longhaired boy looked at me and grinned, "Not bad, for a chick."

I smiled at him and then we ran after his comrades.

We were well on our way to the exit, when multiple guards came our way. We stopped in our tracks and looked at the men that surrounded us.

"Put your hands in the air!"

We slowly put our hands up. I looked at the five boys. Defeat, failure and embarrassment could be seen in their eyes. I some how knew what they felt, I feel the same.

I couldn't bear seeing these boys lose their lives like this. Part of me knows that I should be the one to kill them, but the other part of me wishes to save them and work with them. As a last resort I ignited a ball of flame in between my raised hands.

I glared at the guards, "Fire Ball!!" I throw the ball of fire at the soldiers, scorching the hallway and the men in one fell swoop. I looked at the Gundam pilots, "Let's go!"

They nodded again and we ran to the exit.

We stopped just in front of the woods. We turned around and looked at the base.

"We didn't set the explosives, Heero." Duo looked at the Japanese pilot.

Heero lowered his head, "Mission.. . failure.. ."

"Leave it to me." I ran forward a little ways. I stopped and looked at the OZ soldiers that ran towards me. I put my hands down in front of me and closed my eyes, I had to concentrate all of my energy. "Darkness beyond twilight.. . Crimson beyond blood that flows.. . Buried in the stream of time is where your power grows.. ." A ball of what seemed like a red light appeared in my hands, "I pledge myself to conquer, all the foes who stand.. . Before the mighty gift bestowed in my unworthy hand.. ." I opened my eyes and looked at the fear in the soldiers' eyes, "Let the fools who stand before me be destroyed, by the power you and I possess.. . Dragon Slave!!!!!!!" I fired the ball of light in the direction of the base.

The base and the soldiers were annihilated. I turned around and went back to the five Gundam pilots, "Mission complete."

"Wow! Did you see that Heero? She completed our mission!" Duo ran over to me and started to shake my hand repeatedly.

"It was no problem, well now that the mission's over I'll be leaving." I let go of the longhaired boy's hand and walked towards my mobile suit.

The Chinese pilot glared at me as I walked by, "Stay off the battle field, woman."

"What was that?" I stopped and looked at him.

"I said stay off the battle field. The battlefield has no place for a weak woman like you.. ."

"WuFei," Quatre walked over to the fuming pilot of Shenlong, "if she's so weak, than how come she destroyed that entire base by herself?" he sneezed.

Heero walked over to me and held out his hand, "I never really thanked anyone for anything, but I really owe you a 'thank you', you helped us more than you will ever know."

I took his hand and shook it. After that I let go and continued to trudge back to Rain.

"Wait!" The pilot of Heavyarms ran after me and grabbed my arm, "I think I speak for everyone, except WuFei, why don't you come back to our safe house with us?"

"Well who am I to argue. By the way, what are your names?" As if I don't know.. .

The longhaired pilot of Deathscythe stepped forward, "I'm Duo. Duo Maxwell, I run, I hide, but I never lie. I am Shinigami."

"The name's Heero Yuy, pleasure."

"My name is Quatre Raberba Winner." He sneezed again.

I smiled at those three and then looked at the boy who was still holding my arm, "What about you?"

"I have no name, but if you must call me something it's Trowa. Call me Trowa Barton."

Duo bounced over to the still fuming pilot, "And this is WuFei Chang. Don't worry he's always grumpy, aren't you, Wu?"

"Shut up, Maxwell."

"What about you?" Trowa asked.

"My name is Ame."

Heero arched an eyebrow, "Rain, but isn't that the name of your mobile suit?"

"How, how did you know that?"

"When I was being trained I was looking through blue prints of different Gundams."

Quatre smiled, "Well let's go home."

We all agreed and climbed into the cockpits of our Gundams.

~*~*~*

It was now about 4:00am. I'm sitting in the room that they were nice enough to give me. I sighed as I stood up and looked out the window. "WuFei Chang.. ." My target was right below my window, he was practicing his sword skills, "You're so cold and heartless towards women. So why is it that I can't stop staring at you?" My eyes widened as realization hit me, "I'm in love with him. In love with the man I am supposed to kill.. ." I walked away from the window and headed down the stairs.

I walked into the kitchen and took out some paper and a pen that was in one of the drawers in the kitchen. I wrote a polite letter and left a bottle of something for my blond friend. After that I quietly made my way out of the house and into the hanger without getting caught. I climbed into the cockpit and took off, to go back and report the mission status to my commander at Blood Fang.

* * *

The next morning the five pilots gathered in the kitchen for breakfast. Quatre rubbed the sleep from his eyes and then looked around the room, "Where's Ame?"

"Who cares." WuFei snarled as he sat down.

"Look what I found, it's a note from Ame." Duo said gleefully as he waved it the air.

"What's it say?" Trowa asked.

"Well.. ." he took a deep breath and started to read the short letter;

Dear Heero, Duo, Trowa, Quatre and WuFei,

Thank you for letting me stay with you, but I had to leave early, just incase a mission popped up. I hope you understand and thanks again. I hope we'll see each other again.

Your friend,

Ame

P.S.: I left something next to the letter for you, Quatre. I hope it helps with your allergies. This is just my way of saying thank you for being my first real friend. Till we meet again.

Duo smiled and tossed the bottle to the blond.

"What is it?" Trowa asked, walking over to his lover.

"Benadryl!" the pilot of Sandrock smiled and popped a pill in his mouth.

~~~

I sat in the conference room. I watched Chris pace back and forth, I knew what was coming.

"Why didn't you kill him?! You were in their house, you could have killed 05 and the rest of the Gundam pilots for that matter, why didn't you?!"

"Sir, it would have been really obvious that something was going on. They live really close to a town, if I had killed them it would have caused a lot of commotion in the town."

"You're so weak it makes me sick." Hikaru walked into the room and sat next to me. She looked at our superior, "Can I take over now?"

"No. I think she did the right thing by retreating. Killing all five of them would cause a lot of trouble, so I've taken the liberty of tracking all of 05's missions. Ame, you will follow him and gain his trust. When the time is right.. . blow his brains out. Is that understood?"

I stood up and saluted, just like I had done before, "Yes sir, mission accepted." I walked out of the room without another word.

I stood in front of my window and looked at the ground, hoping to see that sexist Chinese boy below me. "I can't be in love with him. He's to different from me and way too sexist for his own good, but why do I find his sexist comments so adorable?"

"Find whose comments adorable?"

I turned around, "Kawa.. ."

The blond, longhaired girl sat on my bed and looked at me with her bright green eyes, "Who do you have a crush on?"

"No one.. ." I lied.

"Come on, you can tell me."

"I don't have a crush on anyone." I lied again.

She smiled, "You can tell me anything, after all we are friends."

"Friends?"

"Yeah. You are the only person who treats me with the kindness that I deserve. So I think of you as my friend."

"Chris and Hikaru didn't send you here, did they?"

"No, if you tell me, I won't tell them."

I sighed, "All right." I walked over to her and whispered in her ear.

"Ame, you know your mission."

I nodded, "But I can't hurt them. They're all too damn kind, if they had been rude to me then maybe I could carry this out. They're also fighting for peace, why should we interfere?"

The blond stood up and looked at me, "Because our orders are to kill them. Our missions maybe different, but the objective of peace is the same. If you act on your feelings for this Gundam pilot, you are risking your own life, is that what you want?"

"I vowed to make the peace between earth and the colonies a reality, but I think we're going about it in the wrong way. By the way, that picture of that little boy you have in your room."

"You mean my picture of Duo? What about it?"

"He's a Gundam pilot." I smirked.

"You're lying.. ."

"No. Duo, Duo Maxwell. He runs, he hides, but never lies. He is Shinigami."

"Maxwell? He took his last name from the Maxwell church."

"You remember everything about those days on L2, don't you? How your parents were killed and you were taken in by the church and then you met that violet eyed boy. When he was teased you were the only one out of the kids that defended him." I chuckled, "Then a few months later you were adopted by your uncle and you were brought to earth, but during the time you were at the Maxwell Church you had developed a crush on Duo. And when you heard about the church's destruction, you were relieved that Duo was still alive and one day you hope to see him again. Now you face the same problem I do, you're in love with a Gundam pilot as well."

"You're right, Ame. I do love Duo, but I'll complete what ever mission comes my way."

I walked passed her and stopped in the doorway. I looked back at her, "Even if your mission is to kill him?" I walked away leaving her standing in the middle of my room.

* * *

I waited three days and now I was on my way to a boarding school, which was where WuFei's next mission was held.

I walked into the classroom behind the teacher. I stood next to her and looked at my fellow classmates.

"It's that woman.. ." WuFei whispered.

"Class, I would like you to meet a new student."

"My name is Ame."

"Ame, take a seat next to WuFei, feel free to ask him anything."

I nodded and walked to my seat. I sat down and looked at the Chinese boy, "So we meet again.. ." I whispered.

"What are you doing here?"

"I had orders to investigate something around here. Romefeller owns this school, you know."

"Of course I know that. I'm a scholar after all."

"You? I never thought of you as the bookworm type."

He glared at me, "Then what type am I?"

"A sexist pig. Anyway, why don't we work together. The sooner this is over with, the sooner the war will end."

"I work alone."

* * *

Days went by and we completed our mission. Actually, it would be missions. I followed him everywhere. To the boarding school, to a public high school, anywhere he went. I really should apologize for calling him a sexist pig.. .

I was now floating through space. He had taken off to return home, but as my data shows, he is heading for the battleship, Peacemillion. I was only a few hours behind him.

"Ame, can you hear me?"

"Kawa, what are you doing here?"

"Chris gave me orders to kill a Gundam pilot.. ."

"Duo?"

"Yeah and now I know what you're going through. He also gave me permission to kill you, if you didn't complete your mission."

"Are you sure your Gundam is ready for space combat?"

"Don't worry, Kaze's ready to go. I'll go on ahead, see ya!"

I turned off my com link. Does she think I'm that stupid? That frequency was from Peacemillion, she could have orders to kill Duo or me, but I'm sure she has resigned from Blood Fang.

I saw WuFei dock his mobile suit in Peacemillion, I turned up the power on Rain's boosters and glided to the ship.

I brought my mobile suit onboard and opened the hatch to the cockpit. I looked to my left and saw that his Altron Gundam was in horrible condition. I then turned my gaze to the mobile suits in front of me. Deathscythe Hell had just looked like it had been repaired, Wing 0, Sandrock and Heavyarms were in top condition. And then there were two other mobile suits. "Kaze Gundam.. . so I was right, she is here." I looked at the other mobile suit, "Yuki Gundam.. . that must mean.. ." I shook my head and jumped down from my mobile suit. I landed on the floor and headed for the hallway.

I stepped in the hallway and saw the Chinese pilot, "Wu-Chan!"

He stopped and turned around, "Don't call me that.. ." he snarled.

I ran towards him, "We should be working together, I'm on your side."

He walked up to me and shoved me into the wall, "You listen to me, woman. I have no intentions on staying here that long. So stop following me."

"I wasn't.. . following you.. ." I lied.

"Yes you were. You've been tracking me ever since we met! I don't plan on working with you. Once Nataku is fixed I will annihilate the White Fang. And just to let you know, I don't care if you are a woman. If you get in my way one more time, I will kill you."

Quatre and Heero were walking down the hall.

I looked at them, then back at WuFei. Quatre ran forward and tried to separate us.

"Come on WuFei, you don't really want to hurt her, do you?" the blond asked.

"Don't worry about it Quatre, I can take care of myself.. ." I raised my right hand and slapped the salutary dragon across the face.

He fell to the ground and glared at me, "Damn you woman.. ."

Heero glared at the Chinese pilot on the floor, then looked at me, "Ame, I think we need to talk."

I nodded. Quatre and I walked over to Heero and then we walked down the hall. We stopped in front of the recreation room.

Quatre looked at me, "Let's go in.. ."

Heero and I nodded and entered the room. I scanned the room. Kawa was sitting at the table drinking a soda and across from was another girl. This girl had short blue hair and green eyes. She looked like she was a mechanic, but she only looked about my age.

She looked at the Japanese boy next to me, then she stood up and approached us, "So we meet again."

"It has been a long time since we were all together. Hasn't it, Lina?" Heero looked at me with a small smile on his face.

"Lina? Who's Lina, Heero?" The blond Arabian asked.

"I'm Lina. Ame is just my code name. I didn't think you'd remember me, Heero."

"I remember you clearly because you haunt my dreams.. ."

"Could you explain this a little more?" Kawa asked.

I nodded, "I know Heero and Midori know this, but there are a few things they don't know." I sat down and looked at my "comrades".

*Flashback*

I was only five years old and I was being involved as a science experiment. I was adopted by the five Gundam Scientists and was raised like a normal little girl, until my fifth birthday.. .

Ever since then I've been nothing more than their puppet.

I sat in the mobile suit hanger. I was now seven and I met someone who had been through almost the same thing as I. Her name was Midori.

She walked passed me and went over to work on one of the mobile suits.

As time went on we became friends, then we met somebody new. He went by the name of Alden.. .

Dr. J had planned to program him like he had done to Midori and like her and the rest of them had done to me. And in my eyes, I had it a lot worse.

Alden told me about one night, he heard me screaming. He and Midori shared a room from the day they met. He told me that he woke up in a cold sweat at the sound of my pleas. Midori had told him that I was going to be all right, but let me tell you Midori, you were dead wrong.

After nights and nights of torture, I wound up in the infirmary, and then I discovered what they wanted me for. They used me to see if it was possible to make a sorceress.

When I was twelve, Dr. J had sent me to Master O and that's when I first laid eyes on WuFei Chang. I snuck around the colony until I found this ancient scroll, but I have yet to use this spell even now.. .

When I was thirteen I was sent to earth along with my complete Gundam, Rain.

Dr. J and the other quacks thought that since my real name is Lina, that they would design my outfit just like Lina Inverse, but they didn't want anyone to know what they were up to so they gave me a code name. The code name Ame.. .

*End of flashback*

"Wow." Quatre gasped, "So did you get your orders from one of the scientists?"

"No. Once on earth I started to work for an organization called Blood Fang. It was there I received the worst mission possible."

"What was that?" the blue haired girl questioned.

"To kill the Gundam pilots. I was going to kill them, but then I fell in love."

Heero arched an eyebrow, "With who?"

"WuFei.. ." I sighed, "I was supposed to kill him first. That's why I've been tracking him and I don't know what I should do."

Outside the room Duo was leaning against the door listening in, "She has a crush on Wu.. .?"

Quatre sighed, "I think you should leave him be. He's clearly not interested. But as for killing him I don't think you should."

I nodded and looked at Midori, "Could you fix Altron?"

She nodded and smiled at Heero, "I'll be right on."

* * *

It was midnight and Midori had just finished repairing Altron. She walked down the hall and stopped in front of Heero's room.

She opened the door and stepped in, "Hey Heero.. . oh!" she stared at the bed. She had walked in on Heero and Duo in a very, VERY passionate embrace. "Heero, can I see you when you're through?" She quickly left the room and shut the door behind her.

She ran down the hall and walked into the recreation room.

I looked at her, "What's with you?"

"Did you know that Heero is.. . well gay?"

I nodded and looked at Kawa, "So is Duo."

"You lie!"

Midori walked over to the table and sat down, "She's not lying. He was the one Heero was with."

I giggled a little, "If I may change the subject."

"What is it, Lina?" Midori asked.

"Please call me by my code name. Just until I straighten everything out."

* * *

The next morning, Duo walked down the hall and into the recreation room, "Hey WuFei, I've got something to tell you.. ."

"What is it Maxwell?"

"Ame's real name is Lina and she has a crush on you."

"Duo, it's six in the morning, I'm not in the mood for your jokes and that brings up another question; what are you doing up so early?"

"I always wake up early the day after Heero and I have sex."

The pilot of Altron put his hands over his ears, "I didn't need to hear that.. ."

"What are you going to do about Ame? She likes you, for some unknown reason she's actually attracted to you. I guess this is the first miracle I've ever seen."

"Shut up! As for that woman I could care less."

"Quit lying. You're in love with her and you know it.. ."

"Everyone report to the bridge, there's an unidentified mobile suit approaching!" Sally shouted over the intercom.

Duo and WuFei dashed out of the rec. room and headed for the bridge.

Everyone gathered on the bridge in a matter of minutes. We looked at large screen before us and saw that the mobile suit was a Gundam suit.

"What the hell is that?!" Duo questioned.

"Chi Gundam.. ." I turned around and bolted for the mobile suit hanger.

I could hear footsteps behind me. I knew they were going to fight Hikaru with me, but how can I endanger them.. .

I climbed into the cockpit of my Gundam and immediately took off.

"Calling Peacemillion, I suggest you evacuate if you don't want to die. I repeat, evacuate the ship!"

"What do you think you're doing Hikaru?!" I shouted over my com unit.

"Completing your mission. I will be victorious.. ."

"Listen to me. The other mobile suit pilots are on their way, you don't stand a chance."

"I will be victorious. I will kill the Gundam pilots and I am going to kill you!" she took out her beam saber and lunged at me.

I moved backwards and dodged the attack. Focusing my energy to Rain I started to cast a fierce lightning spell, "Luminare!"

She put up a magical guard around her Gundam. "Not bad, Ame. Let's see how you do with just hand to.. . hand!" She lunged towards me again.

I took out my partisan and blocked her attack. "Why are you interfering with my mission?"

"I want the glory for myself!" she continued her assault on me as the others started to approach us.

"Go forth mobile dolls.. ." she sent the MD units forward.

"Heero, look!" Midori shouted over her com unit.

"Virgos.. ." he pulled out his beam saber, "Let's go!"

I could hear the explosions of the mobile dolls. I looked at the picture of Hikaru that was on the view screen, "I can handle this mission. Once I gain WuFei's trust, I will kill him.. ."

"Not if I kill you first." A ball of fire appeared in her Gundam's hand.

"That's a.. ." I gasped.

"Gob Flare!" she through the fire ball.

"Foolish woman get out of the way!"

I shut my eyes tightly. A few seconds later I opened them. I looked at the mobile suit that my Gundam held in its arms, Altron.

I flipped my com unit on to Altron's frequency, "WuFei, can you hear me?"

The image I saw on the screen made me want to have the others take care of him so I could rip Hikaru limb from limb, but I didn't. I just held his Gundam and cried.

"That was lucky. But I will kill you all and remember your mission. Till we meet again, Ame." She turned off her com unit and retreated.

After the enemy had retreated, we brought WuFei back to Peacemillion.

I'm now sitting in the infirmary by WuFei's bedside. I held his hand as tears made their way down my face.

Sally had told me that he would not awaken for a few days. I was just happy to hear that he would wake up eventually. The only reason that these tears are being shed is because it is my fault that he is in this condition.

* * *

It had been almost a week since the fight with Hikaru and she has yet to come back, but I know what she had said; was going to be true. I know she'll give it all she's got to kill us all.

Midori and Kawa came in quite often, to make sure I was all right. Of course I told them I was okay, but that was far from the truth.

I continued to hold his hand. That night I had fallen asleep in the chair beside his bed. I was crying in my sleep, until I felt something touch my cheek. I opened my eyes and saw that the Chinese pilot had woken up.

He took his hand that I had been holding and wiped away my tears, "Don't cry.. ." he whispered.

"Why did you save me?"

"Because.. . I love you too."

"I never said I loved you."

"Maxwell told me your real name too. Lina, right?"

I nodded, "Yes. My name is Lina Cozgrow."

He sat up and moved closer to me, our lips were almost touching, "I like that name.. ." he pressed his lips against mine.

Out side the infirmary, Duo was once again listening in, actually he was peeking in as well. "This is too much like a soap opera.. ." he whispered to himself.

"Duo, what are you doing?" Heero asked.

The longhaired pilot looked behind him and saw his fellow pilots, plus Midori and Kawa. "I'm just watching the new happy couple."

"What are you talking about?" Trowa asked.

Duo pointed into the room, "See?"

The others crowded around Duo and looked in as well.

Duo let his crooked smirk cross his face, "This is the second miracle I've seen."

I pulled away and looked into his onyx eyes, "You are so doped up.. ."

"Maybe, that doesn't mean what I said isn't true.. ." he sighed and fell asleep.

* * *

Three and a half weeks had passed. WuFei's injuries had completely healed and Midori had managed to repair Altron, to the top condition.

A lot of things had changed on this ship. The rooms for one, I am now sharing a room with Wu-Chan, I can really call him that now.

I just hope nothing will go wrong.. .

Midori walked into the rec. room. She saw Heero sitting at a table with his laptop. She walked over to him, "I'm not interrupting you, am I?"

"No." He saved the document he was typing and closed his laptop, "A few weeks ago you said you wanted to talk to me, what about?"

She sat down across from him, "I didn't think you heard me."

"There are a few things I can hear over Duo's moans."

She laughed, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't laugh. But that comment was so out of character for you."

"So is falling in love. What's your point?"

"Your thing with Duo isn't a one time thing, is it?"

He shook his head, "I know how you feel about me and I'm sorry. But if it makes you feel better you were like my sister."

"Really?"

"Yeah.. ."

"Heero, what were you typing?"

"It's my journal. I was just writing about the current events."

"Events like what?"

"Just the ones that mean a lot to me. You know, like my first date with Duo, stuff like that."

"But that's not current, is it?"

"No. What I was writing about just now was what was going through my mind when I saw you and Lina again."

* * *

It was getting late. Everyone had retired to bed.

I was asleep in the same bed with WuFei. Ever since he got out of the infirmary we slept like this.

"The time has come, Ame.. ."

My eyes snapped open. I looked around the dark room, trying to see if Hikaru had snuck onboard, but the only person in the room other myself, was WuFei.

Not wanting to cause trouble for him or anyone else, I got out of bed and changed out of my bedclothes.

I ran to the mobile suit hanger and climbed into the cockpit of my Gundam, "I know Hikaru is around here.. ." I turned on the tracking devices. Finding her location at a nearby colony, I started up my Gundam and left Peacemillion.

* * *

The next morning, WuFei awoke in his bed and looked to his side, "Lina?" he got out of bed and checked the joint bathroom.

He looked around the room carefully, then he spotted something on the floor, "She left.. ." he quickly got dressed and ran towards the rec. room.

He ran into the room and looked at his comrades, "Guys, we have a problem."

Duo got out of his seat and approached him, "WuFei, all you have to do is turn the lights down low, play nice, soft music and get a bottle of wine.. ."

"Not THAT kind of problem!"

Midori looked at him, then around the room, "WuFei, where's Lina?"

"That's the problem. She's gone."

Heero stood up, "Everyone get on the bridge. Tell Howard, Noin and Sally to scan the area!" he looked at the blue haired girl, "I need to talk to you."

Everyone else left. Midori looked into Heero's Prussian blue eyes, "What is it?"

"Are you going to fight?"

"Well, that's what I was programmed to do. Although I've been trying to forget that."

"That doesn't answer my question."

"Mission accepted!"

He nodded and they left the rec. room.

Trowa and the others kept their eyes on the monitors.

"Guys, I found her!" Quatre shouted and then brought the image of a colony on the large screen.

"That's the colony that's practically next to us.. ." Kawa looked at the image and then looked at Duo, "What would she be doing there?"

"Normally I'd make a joke, Kawa. But now is not the time."

"We're going after her." WuFei looked at the others. Seeing that were no objections they ran out of the bridge and down the hall.

Heero and Midori stopped in the middle of the hallway. Seeing that they were about to be trampled on, they turned around and ran into the mobile suit hanger.

They climbed into their respective mobile suits and took off.

~~~

They landed their MS and jumped down from the cockpits. Heero looked at everyone, "Listen to me very carefully. Lina must have a good reason for coming here, but if her intentions are bad we may be forced to fight her. WuFei, I'll understand if you want to leave."

"I'm not leaving Yuy."

He nodded and then they started to search the area.

"Heero, I'm tired, let's take a break.. ." Duo whined.

"Duo, we haven't even walked more than three steps."

"And that's all you'll need.. ."

The Gundam pilots, Kawa and Midori looked up, to see the owner of the voice jump down from the building.

Kawa glared at her, "Hikaru.. ."

"I think you should look behind you."

WuFei turned around and saw a gun in his face. He looked passed the gun and saw who was holding it, "Lina.. ."

"I'm sorry WuFei, but I'm going to kill you."

"That's why you were following me?"

I moved a little bit closer, my gun still raised, "So now you know.. ."

"Shoot him, Ame. That is an order!"

I moved my finger closer to the trigger. My hand started to shake. I can't do it. I dropped the gun and looked at Hikaru, "I decline from the Blood Fang!"

"Fine then, I'll kill him myself!"

I stepped in front of the whole group, "Over my dead body."

"That could be arranged." She took out two daggers and lunged at me.

I took out my sword and started to battle with her to the best of my ability. The others had taken cover behind their MS, and viewed the fight from a safe distance.

Hikaru took a cheep shot and knocked my sword from my hand. She moved closer and closer to me until I couldn't back up any farther. I was right up against the side of a building.

She continued to walk towards me, her dagger was ready to slice my throat. She is to close to me, I don't have time to cast my magic.

"Die.. ."

WuFei watched from behind his Gundam. His eyes stared to tear, "No.. ." tears started to fall from his face, "LINA!"

A bright light flashed between me and the black haired girl. Once the light cleared there was a tear shaped orb in front of me.

Hikaru looked at me in shock, "That can't be the.. ."

"Dragon's tear.. ." I cupped in my hands and raised it above my head, "Tears of the dragon, I call on your power.. ." a sword handle appeared in my hand, "To vanquish those who are unjust.. . I call on the clan that sacrificed themselves in the name of honor and justice.. ." a blade of light started to form at the end of the sword, "Light of the dragon, I summon thee!" I held the sword before me ran towards Hikaru.

She was stunned, couldn't move. I moved forward and in one quick strike, I chopped her head off.. .

I looked at her body and then ran towards my friends, "WuFei.. . I.. ."

He looked at the sword, "You were the one who took that scroll. You unleashed its power, the sword is yours."

* * *

Another week had passed. I am no longer known by my code name. It feels great to be called "Lina" again.

My comrades and I are now out side Peacemillion, looking for another unidentified mobile suit. I knew who it was and I'm surprised Kawa still wanted to fight, considering Chris was uncle.

An explosion came out of no where. Chris' mobile suit appeared before us.

"Looks like you failed, Ame."

"My name is Lina, Chris.. ." I snarled as I saw his image on the video screen.

"You know you were fighting along the White Fang didn't you?"

"Uncle Chris, that can't be true.. ."

"But it is Kawa. Blood Fang was the other half of the White Fang. I was born in the colonies, when I heard we were in danger I joined the White Fang. I became leader of the second half of the organization. We had decided to take our plan to destroy earth to earth. But now, we'll just ram Libra into it.. ."

"You.. ." I pulled out my beam saber, "You son of a bitch!" I lunged forward and struck him with the saber.

"We have to help her.. ." Midori looked at Kawa's mobile suit and saw that Quatre and Trowa were holding her back, "Heero, aren't we going to fight?"

"No. This is her fight.. ."

"I have no intentions in fighting you, I will simply kill us both." He pushed a button inside his Kurai Gundam.

The suit flashed and then exploded. I moved away, but I was still caught in the blast. The legs of mobile suit had been blasted off. Blood was streaming down the middle of my forehead.

"Lina, are you all right?" WuFei asked.

I didn't answer him. I looked in the direction of Libra. I moved what was left of my Gundam into the right position, shut my eyes and concentrated all the energy I had left. My only hope is that this spell destroys Libra and that everyone on that ship makes out alive, "Darkness beyond twilight.. . Crimson beyond blood that flows, buried in the flow of time.. ." I opened my eyes, "In thy great name I pledge myself to darkness.. ."

"Lina, you're to weak to cast that spell! It's going to take all your energy and you'll die! Lina!" Midori pleaded, but failed.

"Let the fools who stand before me be destroyed, by the power you and I possess.. . Dragon Slave!" I fired the spell and Libra was nothing but dust. I started to close my eyes, "Mission.. . complete.. ."

The other MS pilots approached the fallen Gundam. WuFei turned on his com unit to Rain's frequency, "Lina, can you hear me?" there was nothing but static.

Heero and Duo got on both sides of Rain and brought it back to Peacemillion.

* * *

Three years later.. .

WuFei and I walked down the streets of L2. Snow had begun to fall as we reached our destination; a small coffee shop where our friends from the war were meeting us. We entered the shop and saw Quatre waving for us to come over to the table.

Midori looked at me, "You look so different when you're not wearing your armor. But that Chinese blue dress looks nice."

I chuckled and smiled, "But I wasn't wearing my armor when I married WuFei."

"Bet you didn't wear anything that night either.. ." Duo chirped.

"Maxwell, shut your mouth."

WuFei and I sat down with our friends. I smiled at them, "So what have you guys been up to?"

"Well, Trowa and I have been running the estate."

"I've been writing a novel about what it was like in the war and Duo opened up a garage."

Midori smiled at me and then her smiled grew bigger as she looked at Heero, "And I'm Duo's partner, so I get to Heero every day."

"He's mine Midori, back off."

I looked at Kawa, "What about you."

"I'm a doctor. I work with Quatre's sister, Iria."

Quatre looked at WuFei and I, "What about you two?"

"We've been managing L5, ever since it was rebuilt." WuFei smiled.

Duo cocked his head, "You look kind of different Lina.. ."

I smiled and looked at them, "I'm two months pregnant."

"Yes! Heero and I won the bet, you owe us five bucks each." Midori said as she and Heero held out their hands.

"What bet?" I asked.

Duo started to slouch in his chair, "We made a bet weather or not WuFei would have kids.. ."

The End

Quatre-Chan: "That was a long story.. ."

Hee-Chan: "Thanks for making me into a character!"

Quatre-Chan: "No prob. By the way, did minna-san catch the joke?"

Duo: "There was a joke?!"

Heero: "Duo, think. The three female characters who's names were in Japanese.. ."

Duo: *thinks* "I don't get it.. ."

Everyone else: *sweat drops*

WuFei: "That was a great fic, Quatre-Chan."

Quatre: "You're just telling her that because Lina was based on her."

Quatre-Chan: "You didn't like it?" *eyes start to tear*

Quatre: "No, it's not that, I really did. But you know WuFei is very picky about what he reads."

Quatre-Chan: "He's got you their Wu-Chan."

WuFei: "I'm serious, we all had fun staring in this one."

Duo: "And for anyone who wants to know, Dorothy died when Lina fired the Dragon Slave at Libra."

Quatre-Chan: "And just to be clear, I don't own GW or the G-boys. I also don't own anything from Slayers or CT. I don't make any money either, so don't bother suing." *^_^*

Trowa: "You can send Quatre-Chan some feedback by e-mailing her at quatre_chan5@hotmail.com.

Hee-Chan: *climbs on Heero shoulders*

Duo: "Get off of him!" *knocks Hee-Chan off*

Sounds of knocking this over, breaking things and very loud curses could be heard all over the studio.

WuFei: "We're not cleaning that up."

Quatre-Chan: "Note to self, get Hee-Chan her own Heero."

Quatre: "Is that possible?"

Quatre-Chan: "They haven't perfected cloning yet, but we can get her a UFO catcher doll."

Trowa: "Will she go for that?"

Quatre: *shrugs*

WuFei: "She loves chibis and she loves Heero. Worth a shot.. ."

Quatre-Chan: *holds out her hands*

*POOF*

Quatre-Chan: "Hee-Chan, look what I've got.. ." *waves doll in the air*

Hee-Chan: *looks at the doll* "CHIBI!!!!!!" *runs over, grabs the doll and sits on the floor playing with it*

Quatre-Chan: *waves* "Bye, bye minna-san. See ya next time."
