Disclaimer: 

*fireworks and bright flashing lights appear out in the

dark sky*

*words form out there*

I DO NOT OWN SAILOR MOON OR GUNDAM WING

*it disappears and reappears every now and then*

 

Cheska:  *watches the fireworks and then notices the

other people there* Oh, hi! ^^ This better be good enough to

tell those people that I don't own them... ^^;;

*Relena pops up*

Relena: It's not fair! Heero is mine! Mine!!

Cheska: Sorry...not in this story you're not...

Relena: Ooh!! That's it!! *starts coming at her with flaring,

angry eyes*

*Cheska steps back*

*The other pilots appears and sees the attacker*

*Heero grabs ahold of Relena and Quatre comes in with a tranquilizer

dart and shoots it into Relena's arm*

*Relena loses consciousness*

Cheska:  What did you give her?

Trowa: Seconal..it makes people fall asleep.

Cheska: Ohh...

*the G-pilots carry...*ahem*...drag Relena off*

Cheska:  Well...^^;; ...let's get on with the story, shall we?

 

*************

 "The X Laser will be ready in fifteen minutes,"one of the mechanics

told Tanis.

 "Very well...once done, how soon can you get it to work and aim

for Earth?"Tanis inquired.

 "Roughly...I would say ten minutes after,"another told him.

 "Good.  Do just that, aim it directly into the center of

the Earth,"Tanis ordered.

 "So soon?"Tsu said to him.

 "The Gundams will be here at any moment.  We can't afford

to lose time,"Tanis said in monotone before leaving the room.

 Tsu watched Tanis go away in silence then went back observing the

'X Laser' being built.

 (Why did he name that contraption X Laser?)Tsu wondered as he lifted

an eyebrow.

**************

 "Fourteen more minutes, guys,"Quatre announced, his eyes shining

with worriness that they may be too late by the time they reach the

Moon.

 "Right,"Duo said with firmness in his voice.

 (Let's just hope we get through this..)Quatre aspired.

*************

 Hotaru wandered back to Serena's room.  Her eyes showing care

and worry for the Gundam Pilot.

 (She's young...she can't die...)Hotaru regarded within her mind.

 She strode over and leaned against the wall beside the bed, gazing

at the one called 06.

 

 Serena tightened her fists and her eyebrows knitted together then

relaxed as she opened her eyes at last. All she saw for the moment

was hazy and unfocused but then it pieced together, slowly she

saw white...

 (Am..am I dead?)Serena wondered inside her mind.

 

 Hotaru saw with surprise mixed in her features that the pilot

was alive and awake.

 "Yo-you're awake..."Hotaru whispered out in shock and surprise.

 

 Serena heard the words being spoken out and at first she was taken aback.

 (I'm not dead after all...)Serena said within her mind as she slowly

turned to the source of the voice.

 She saw the young girl, gazing at her with widened eyes.

 (It's..the girl that I saved awhile back.  Hotaru..yes, Hotaru

Tomoe..)Serena recalled.

 "You're name is Hotaru, is it not?"Serena croaked out.

 "Yes, and you are Serena otherwise known as Moon and Gundam Pilot

06,"Hotaru told her in reply.

 "How?"Serena started.

 "You are in the base that the other scientists hold.  I am a

pupil of Dr. M.  The other pilots rescued you from your

captivity and brought you here to be treated,"Hotaru informed her.

 "I see..where are the others?"Serena softly asked.

 "...in another mission. All of them went...all of them,"Hotaru answered.

 With that said, Serena jolted upright on the hospital bed but

swerved and collapsed back down.

 "You are not well still.  You need your strength. Please,

rest.  At least until all the dizziness you have left in you

is gone,"Hotaru pleaded.

 "But...the others,"Serena said.

 "I will get you something to eat, to help you get more

strength,"Hotaru told her and went out of the room.

 Serena Usagi watched the young girl go off and then balled up

her fists in her small anger of weakness.

 (If..only..)Serena started but felt a hard object in her right

hand.

 "What's this..?"Serena softly said to herself as she opened it

up.

 A silver chain layed inside with a silver pendant of a snowflake.

 "How did this..get here?"Serena wondered outloud.

 "A pilot gave it...from the description of who he is...I would

say the Perfect Soldier gave it to you.  Dr. M told me some

rough descriptions of the pilots after 04 came...and his

looks matches it perfectly,"Hotaru told her as she came in, carrying

a tray of some rolls and soup.

 (Heero Yuy...?)Serena blinked in slight surprise as she covered

the necklace with her fists.

 Hotaru put the tray next to the bed and sat down on the unoccupied

chair beside it.

 "Eat.."Hotaru invited.

 Serena gazed at the food for a moment before eating it greedily.

 "Thank you.."Serena said in gratitude after finishing with her food.

 "He cares about you.."Hotaru said.

 "Wh-what?"Serena sputtered.

 "He cares about you.  The one who gave you that gift..."Hotaru said.

 "He told you...while you were in a coma, that he vowed that he will

not let Oz win this war, however he doubts himself that he will live

through it...but he will try,"Hotaru continued.

 Silence insued.

 "He gave you that object that you have in your hand and he

hopes that you will keep it..."Hotaru finally said.

 Serena gazed down at her closed up fist for a moment and then back

at Hotaru but she was gone.

 (He...cares about me?)Serena slowly said inside her mind.

 

 "She should be preparing to go soon,"Hotaru told Dr. M and the

other scientists.

 "I knew she would, once she wakes up,"Dr. M agreed.

 "A stubborn girl.."Dr. J included in.

 "She wouldn't pass up a chance to reek revenge against Oz,"Dr. O

smirked.

 "I agree..."Dr. G spoke up.

 "Did you get the shuttle ready?"Hotaru interrupted.

 "Yes, it's over at the back of the building, next to her

Gundam that we had brought in,"Dr. S answered.

 "Where are they? The others, I mean,"a voice demanded.

 The scientists and Hotaru turned to see Serena standing there, wearing

fresh clothes and a cold stare.

 "Ahh..I see you're up, but are you well?"Dr. J inquired.

 "Good enough,"Moon answered as her facade went back up on her face.

 "The pilots are on their way over to the Moon Base. They are there

to stop the contraption those Oz soldiers built from destroying

Earth,"Dr. M informed her.

 Moon merely nodded and began walking up the stairs.

 

 Moon set the controls in the shuttle to head for the base of the

Moon. Then buckled down and took off into the sky.

 (I need to get there in time...I have a feeling this isn't

any regular mission...)Moon told herself as she felt the shuttle

rise and speed up. 

*****************

 The three shuttles landed on the grounds of the Moon.  Then the

five Gundams and their pilots exited, they gazed momentarily

at the Moon.

 "We're here,"Duo spoke from inside the his Gundam.

 "Let's get this over and done with,"Heero stated in monotone.

 "Hm.."Trowa and Wufei responded in agreement.

 

 The five Gundams began to descend as they headed for the base.

 

*****************

  *BOOM* *BANG*

 The flicker of lights went on and off for awhile.

 "The Gundams! They're here!"shouted a soldier.

 "Fool! Set up the defenses and fight back!"Tsu ordered in anger.

 At once, the soldiers went off and got the place ready.

 "Quickly! Dispatch the Aries and Leos!"

 "Take out the Mobile Dolls!"

 Orders and commands were set off and soldiers began running all

around the place, carrying the messages off. Others went and

set up the other defenses for the base.

 "When's the X Laser going to be ready?!"demanded Tanis as his patience

was running thin.

 "We have begun to make the preparations for it to be set off,"a scientist

stammered.

 "We are afraid that it will take longer than it was

suppose to,"another scientist informed him but didn't look at him in

the eye.

 "Then what are you doing standing around for?! Get to

it?!"Tanis roared.

 All the workers, in fear, quickly set off to work as fast as they could.

 (Time is running short..)Tanis went through in his head as he

grimly walked off.

**************

 The five Gundams fought through the horde of Mobile Dolls, Leos, and

Aries. They set out their weapons at them. Beam Naginata from Shenlong/Nataku,

Beam Machine Gun and Twin Heat Blades in courtesy of Sandrock.

 Heavyarms with his Micro Missile Launchers, Beam Gatling Gun, and

two Machine Cannons. Deathscythe fought with his Beamscythe and

Wing Gundam used his Buster Rifle, Beam Sabers, and Machine Cannons.

 "They sure let out a huge number of fighters, didn't he?"Quatre said

through the communicators as he destroyed five Mobile Dolls and two Leos.

 "Isn't it great! Whoo-hoo!!"Duo answered as he used his Beamscythe to

slash through six Mobile Dolls.

 "We're almost there, can you guys hold the others off?"Heero communicated

in monotone as he blasted through eight Aries with his Machine Cannons.

 "Sure thing,"Duo told him in assurance.

 With that Heero broke through the horde and was reaching the base

with Shenlong/Nataku and Heavyarms.

 Once inside, Heero got off and ran, with Wufei and Trowa trailing behind.

All three, shooting their way through with their guns and Wufei using

his kitana as well. ((AN: Don't ask me how Wufei could use both his gun

and his kitana...maybe he switches from time to time...who knows?  But

he's using both of them...-_-;;;))

 Soldiers lined up and started shooting but hadn't managed to

lay a scratch on them. Shouts, orders, and protests, as well as

screams, and shuffling of feets sounded through the hallways and

the rooms.

 "Where's the location of the machine set off to destroy

Earth?"demanded Heero as he pointed his revolver into a soldier's

head.

 They managed to kill off most of the guards and attackers in

one room.

 "Tell us!"Heero growled as he pressed it harder against the

man's forehead.

 "In the East Room, five doors down,"the soldier told them in fear of his life.

 Heero pushed the soldier aside and he hit his head hard against the

side of a wall and fell unconscious.

 "Weakling,"Wufei muttered as they made their way out of the room.

 Footsteps thundered across the corridors and bullets shot throughout

the place.  The three pilots dodged and fought the guards and made

it safely away from them.

 (We're almost there...)Trowa said inside his head.

********************

 "Some of the pilots are inside the base!"a soldier reported.

 "Get more troops out there and destroy them!"Tsu commanded.

 "We have, Lieutenant,"the soldier replied, worriedly.

 "Great...then set out some of the Leos on them,"Tsu suggested.

 "All the Leos, Aries, and Mobile Dolls have been dispatched

on the battlefield,"the soldier told him.

 "...then just find them!"Tsu ordered with some losing patience.

 "Yes sir!"the soldier saluted with some fear in his voice and went

out.

 (This is bad...I will have to get to the X Laser just in

case....)Tsu exhaustibly told himself.

******************

 "How is the machine doing?"inquired Tanis.

 "In ten minutes it will be all set.."the scientist answered.

 "Good.."approved Tanis.

 A blast sounded out and crumbles slightly fell from the

ceiling and the lights flickered.

 "Make it fast!"Tanis ordered and continued watching them when

Tsu came in.

 "There are Gundam Pilots inside the base,"Tsu informed him.

 

******************

 "Only five more minutes...just five more.."Moon told herself.

 She glimpsed back at her Gundam, Lunarian Moon and back at

outerspace. She saw the Moon as her shuttle got closer and closer.

 She gazed down at the palm of her hands and opened them up,

revealing the necklace that was given to her.

 A silver snowflake on a silver chain.

~.~FLASHBACK~.~

 The night sky, the stars, and the moon under the willow tree.

 Heero and her having the conversation.

~.~ANOTHER FLASHBACK~.~

 Their moment in the library.

 His eyes boring down into hers.

~.~End of Flashbacks~.~

 ~Remembrance~

"I know...my whole life has been based on missions and I'm

sure yours have been as well, you haven't let much of

yourself show after all these years. Your eyes tell that

you have lived a complicated life,"spoke Serena as she turned

to look at him.

 "Yours as well,"said Heero.

 ~Another Remembrance~

 Serena going to the vehicle and catching Heero's gaze.

 Seeing various emotions but still held coldness in them...

 (Wait..was that...pain and..love?  No...it couldn't be...it was only

my imagination)Serena said to herself as she turned and looked away from

the 01 pilot.

 ~End Remembrance~

 Moon was interrupted from her reverie as she blinked and shook

her head from the constant reminders of her thoughts.

 (He cares for you...)Moon recalled from what Hotaru told her.

 "But....do I?"Moon asked herself as she stared down at the necklace

with softness in her voice.

 

To be continued...

******************

 I thought I'd end it here, today.  I know, it's a bit short

compared to the other chapters but..oh well. I'll try to write

the next one as soon as I can. But for now, please wait! ^^

Isn't it evil of me to leave you there?  I'm not sure if that counts

as evil but too bad...you'll have to figure out what happens next!

I'm not telling though! Bwahahahah!! Bwahahaha!!

*someone hits her over the head*

Cheska: Hey! I'm talking here! *angrily faces the person*

*Relena smirks*

Cheska: What?! You're suppose to be asleep!

Relena: Ha! I woke up!

Heero: Not for long...

*Heero sneaks behind and sticks the needle in her and she falls

asleep again*

Heero: She got out...

Cheska: I can see that..

*Heero and Trowa pick her up and carry her away again.

Cheska: Uhmm...that's all for now! See ya next time! *waves

and goes away to sleep*
