The five pilots sat in their office looking over their missions when Duo picked up a paper with lots of words crossed off but a sentence caught his attention and he turned to the others, “Hey I think this is interesting. It’s from Relena but don’t worry Hee-chan she has lots of words crossed off but one in bold and it wasn’t even supposed to go to our desk. Are you curious yet? Let me read ya the note and you decide if she sparked your curiosity.

Lady Une,

You know I’m taking a mini vacation to visit my home land and we both know it isn’t Cinq. Now I promised Marimeia she could take care of my house. I know you don’t want her alone by herself so forget this little memo and I’ll just worry about my place when I get back because I know exactly what you’re going to suggest and I hope you bite your tongue before you even speak it out loud. They do not need to get involved because we have finally come to a ‘wonderful’ understanding. I’m beneath them so they’ll leave me alone because I don’t deserve to be in the same room with them since I stalked Heero. That’s probably their POV, mine I don’t want them near me because I have too much rage and I’d probably kill them. They knew nothing about me and I want to keep it that way! Let them think what they want, I swear Ana you play matchmaker and I find they were in my place casting their damn judgments and I’ll let you deal with the annoying aristocrats without any help. Key is where you know it to be and so help me I mean it! Damn I hear my task master calling now oh how much I’d love to tell him he can shove his missions and security precautions up his tight ass. Of course I’m sure the four already know how tight it is. I’m sorry Ana they make me so mad most of this will be crossed off and I pray you can’t read under it but if you do please forgive me…never mind I meant every word.

Relena Dorlian

Ps. don’t mind the mess I’ll deal with it later but don’t move anything I had to separate it and it took a while. God I miss him.

Duo looked at the others and they were shocked. Wufei said, “I think it’s time we actually met the real onna.” Heero walked over to his laptop and did his hacking then printed out a sheet of paper and stood and walked out with the others following and Quatre, Duo, and Wufei got into the car while Heero and Trowa got on their bikes and rode out to a fairly barren spot and stopped in front of a nice sized house with a motorcycle parked in the drive way. Heero and Trowa inspected the bike and were impressed they enjoyed the design on the blue bike.

Duo smirked, “Hey I think our princess is very creative. The dove looks pretty cool in the ghost flames almost like the dove is made out of ice. Now let’s go inside and see if we can learn more about her.” They walked up to the steps and realized it was already open so they withdrew their weapons and walked inside and were met with two women holding guns in their faces while they held their guns in the two women’s faces but when the shock wore off they holstered their pistols and closed the door so they could talk. Duo laughed, “I think its funny how we all pulled guns on each other because we thought it were an enemy. Before you ask Lady Une we got the memo on our desk even though it was probably a mistake intentional or not. We need to know who she is so we’ll take over watching the house and if she complains she can come after us.”

Lady Une nodded, “Fine Maxwell but you better not screw with her stuff. C’mon Marimeia let’s go home and when she gets home I’ll let her teach you whatever you want without my supervision.”

Marimeia nodded, “Deal. Take care of the place boys you don’t want to get on Aunt Lena’s bad side.” They left and the five pilots were left alone to explore and learn who the woman was under her mask. They walked into the living room and saw boxes lined up against the walls, a piano by the patio doors and a fair distance away from the sofa and other furniture against the opposite wall was a TV and entertainment system including stereo with a basket of CDs and a shelf of DVDs. They turned to see pictures on the mantle. Duo was half expecting to see manipulated pictures of Relena with Heero but that was not what he saw. He lifted one picture and saw a little girl with hair the color of a sunset in waves holding a bouquet up to an elderly man. Heero looked at one and saw the same strawberry blonde haired girl wearing an ice skating outfit holding a bouquet of white roses and baby’s breath with a gold medal around her neck and her blue-violet eyes held pride and cheer. Trowa looked at one with the same girl only this time she was wearing a gymnast’s outfit and was captured in midair doing a stunt that had Trowa impressed even though he never saw it completed. Wufei saw a picture of the same girl older like the others were standing in a finishing pose smiling down at the ground where her opponent was laying. Quatre saw on the piano a picture of the same girl a little bit older playing the piano for a recital and could picture how fluently her hands must have moved.

Duo saw the other pictures and asked, “Why do you think she has them? I mean was this someone she knew?”

Quatre shook his head, “I don’t know Duo we’ll have to explore the rest of the house to see if we can get more clues.” They walked into the next room which was the kitchen and Duo immediately started to rummage around for anything and pulled out a plate of wrapped cookies/brownies and Quatre read the note, “Hey if you’re Duo I know you’ll enjoy these there’s a surprise for you don’t worry it’s not poison and if your Marimeia don’t eat these until after dinner which is in the fridge so stick the top dish in the microwave for 2:30 so it’ll be hot. I know Ana has to force you to eat good food but when you stay over at my place you go by my rules and if you don’t I’ll punish you later in training. Enjoy and no parties!”

Duo’s curiosity and stomach got the better of him so he undid the wrapping after saving the note and took a bite of the brownie and grinned, “Hey I didn’t know she remembered I loved peanut butter in my brownies and caramel in my cookies.” They each ate a brownie and a cookie enjoying her surprises. Duo opened the fridge and got out milk then walked to the cabinets and got out glasses and poured each a glass. Once they were done with their snack they wrapped the plate up again and put the cookies and milk back in the fridge then they washed their glasses out and put them back in the cabinet. They walked into the next room and were momentarily blocked by a locked door which Duo unblocked by picking the lock with his little kit and when the doors were opened it revealed her study where papers littered her desk amongst a computer, printer/copier /scanner. There was a sofa along a wall and two chairs in front of the desk, on the other wall was another entertainment system with another basket of CDs. They saw pictures on the stereo speakers and on the end tables they looked at them and it were of the same girl only the light in her eyes seemed a bit dim. Wufei saw a curtain but it wasn’t leading to anything so he pushed it back and revealed to them a family portrait of a man and woman both wearing royal clothes in front of them were a boy with silver hair matching his father and the girl had the same hair as the other smaller pictures and she matched her mother. Next to the children near the boy was an older woman holding his hand and next to the girl was an older man holding her hand. In the back ground was the Cinq palace.

Trowa said, “I never knew there was a family portrait of the Peacecraft line. I guess the older couple is their grand parents.”

Quatre studied the picture of the older man and gasped, “Oh my Allah he looks like Pagan her chauffeur.” The other four studied him and nodded their agreement and just decided to add this puzzle piece onto their growing pile. They walked up the steps and saw doors on the left side and doors on the right. Wufei pointed to the right so they moved to the first door on their right and saw a bedroom decorated in a teenager’s fashion and saw hanging above the mirror a necklace with Marimeia as the pendant. They closed the door and headed to the next door and saw an empty bedroom so they closed it then they walked to the next door and the same outcome thus was the same for the other two doors. They came to understand they were guest rooms like the small one downstairs adjacent to her study. They walked to the doors on the left and opened it to reveal a spacious bathroom they closed it and opened a door that was close to the end room and walked into a nursery with toys and baby clothes but before they could come to their conclusions Wufei picked up a picture frame of Zech’s son and they realized the room was for when Zach would stay over at his aunt’s. They opened the last door after seeing another guest bedroom and walked into the ‘master bedroom’.

They looked around and were shocked it wasn’t decorated in pink and purple as they first assumed but it was decorated in various shades of blue and some pale purple. Heero noticed his teddy bear he had given to her was sitting on the book case boxes were lined up against the closet. On the bed was a midnight blue comforter and pale blue pillows. On her dresser they saw an antique wooden jewelry box and opened to see what she had collected. Duo was expecting gold and humongous jewels that would look tacky and gaudy but inside was a silver ring, a few earrings, necklaces but nothing overly fancy. Hanging on the mirror like Marimeia had her necklace was a heart locket and Duo opened it to reveal a picture of the little girl and on the other side was Relena in her ‘Queen of the world’ outfit only she was smiling not looking how they remembered her to be. Duo closed it and turned it to the back and read the engraving “Young and old you will always be my heart; Lena the queen of my heart. Love always Grand-Da”

Quatre sighed, “That was sweet but it doesn’t solve our question about whether Pagan was related to Miss Relena or not. I wonder what else we can learn.” Duo walked over to the book case and opened the cabinets after picking the lock and was rewarded to the sight of the fancy jewels he was expecting but a box caught his attention and he pulled it out then opened it after picking the lock and revealed a crown that sparkled like diamonds but was tinted with sapphire and Quatre read the little scroll “Please give this to Princess Relena Peacecraft when she becomes the required age and her brother accepts his destiny as King of Cinq. She is to accept this crown and wear it proudly as she sits on her thrown in times of peace but during the times of war she is to remove it and fight for her kingdom. This princess will become Queen of the Celtic Isles and will not be held back by the foolish ideals of her father. She is to take the lineage of her mother Queen Katherine Elizabeth Peacecraft ruler of the Celtic Isles. This dear Da is my wish for my princess. Her brother has too much of his father that I fear he would become a warrior only instead of a diplomat as well. Pagan, please teach our princess to fight and when the time comes all the training you bestowed on her will come back. Teach her about the past for I fear she will forget over time having to live with the Dorlians. I also wish you could protect her heart for hers is the biggest but I know that is impossible since we all go through heart ache of some kind but my dear Lena can feel others emotions as well as her own. I guess it’s every mother’s last wish to make sure their child is happy and healthy. Do not keep her isolated from her knights I believe they will give meaning to her life. Protect my children as only you can. Love Queen Katherine Elizabeth Peacecraft.”

Wufei sighed, “The onna does know pain and she hides it well. Let’s see what else there is here to understand our onna.” Quatre rolled the scroll up and tied the ribbon then placed it on the velvet pillow and closed the box then Duo locked it and set inside the cabinet where he picked up another box and opened it since there was no lock and they saw the crown from when she was ‘Queen of the world’ with another scroll and Wufei read, “Relena Peacecraft you were quite refreshing. In more ways then one my dear, you turned the Romerfellar’s plot against them by giving you power you used it to discuss your father’s ideals. You are an addiction my pet for the people and for others. Who will win the war? You a princess trying to preach ideals you never believed in, me a soldier who has your brother fighting on my side or the knights fighting to protect their lives and the people they stand for? Either way my dear to the victor goes the spoils and I have had my treasure countless times. I have set you free my pet but only you know how much freedom your gilded cage gives you. I leave you with a rose which will never be as soft as your silky skin or as beautiful as your being which was once closed but now opened to my every desire and red as your innocence as it dripped away fitting that I should take yours as a woman just as I did when you were a child. You are no longer an innocent dove instead you are mine as you will always know. I must bid you farewell my fair princess I must let my dove fly free…for now. When you see a red rose you will always think of me, Treize Kushrenada.”

Heero’s eyes were cobalt and the others were as angry and disgusted at what Treize had done. Quatre turned his head into his lover’s shoulder and Heero’s eyes softened as he tried to comfort him while Trowa comforted his lover Duo. Wufei was shaking with rage but tried not to crumple the note. He rolled it up and tied the ribbon then placed it on the velvet pillow and closed the box and put it in the cabinet. He closed the cabinet and locked it then turned to the others and without speaking they made their decision when she returned they would show Relena how love was supposed to be. Duo kissed his silent lover then walked over to the bookcase and pulled his Chinese lover into a kiss then turned to the bookcase and picked up a photo album and walked over to the bed and laid down then waited for the others to follow. He opened the book and they saw a picture of the Hilde posing with a caption -Hilde Sheibeiker-only girl who could be called the goddess of death.- Underneath her picture was another picture of her only Catherine and Dorothy were in it all posing and a caption -Hilde, Catherine, and Dorothy- 3 Chicks who know how to fight.- On the next page was a picture of Hilde and Duo and a caption -Hilde and Duo God and Goddess of death.- Underneath was a picture of Duo and Hilde looking as if they were going to kill each other with the caption -Watch out they’re going to blow!- There were a few pictures of the girls including Noin, Sally, Lady Une and Marimeia. They also saw pictures of themselves kissing and hugging with cute captions telling how she got them. They saw a picture of Relena with Zechs. He was about to close it when he felt something so he used one of his lock picks to slip under and pull the hiding papers out to reveal more pictures of them with different captions more innuendo. Duo smirked at one picture of Trowa from the circus when he wasn’t wearing a shirt and the caption was -Let’s hide his shirts! Who needs shirts when you have his body? Thank you Cathy!- Heero pointed to a picture of Quatre drinking tea but his shirt was open and the drop was running down his chin and onto his chest and the caption was -What I would give to be that drop of tea. Mmm sexy Quat, I want one Dorothy. - Trowa smirked and pointed to a picture of Heero where his eyes were unobstructed so you could see deep into them and the caption -Drown worthy eyes. So deep and mesmerizing like the ocean. Noin you rock! - Wufei pointed to a picture of Duo with tears in his violet eyes and a caption -Such a soft heart and soul and he hides behind his ‘jester’ mask. Well he makes one hot jester.- Duo pointed to a picture of Wufei wearing no shirt sweating and holding a wooden sword performing his Kata and a caption -Yummy! Shirts should be illegal for these guys. I want to face him someday bet it would be fun but I’d probably lose too busy drooling at the salty goodness of his rippley body.-

Duo flipped it over and they saw more pictures of the girls only it also showed Relena but she looked more like the girl from the previous pictures her hair was strawberry blonde and her ponytail curled at the tips and she was encased in all black. Duo noticed her tank was lace and satin which he thought was sexy. Trowa pointed to a picture of her wearing black spandex shorts and a blue sports bra sweat covering her skin but a gleam of accomplishment reflected in her emerald eyes. Wufei smirked at Quatre and pointed to a picture of her and Dorothy and she was holding two swords one was at Dorothy’s neck the other was just for show and the caption -Winner and still champion! See vid…much more fun. - They looked at the other pictures and saw her skating, practicing gymnastics, posing, performing a Kata. They saw another picture of her wearing a beautiful violet gown and her hair was the same strawberry blonde it was curled tighter and there were flowers weaved into her hair and amongst the curls were the diamond sapphire tinted crown and next to her was Pagan also in royalty’s attire. Taped next to it was a picture of Zechs wearing a crown and next to him was Noin wearing a crown and in between them was little Zach also wearing a tiny crown. The caption was for both -The chapter closes on one part only to open on a whole new beginning.-

They put it back the way it was and opened the balcony door and walked out. The sun was beginning to set when he noticed something, “Hey guys come here and tell me if you see something out of place?” The others came out and when he pointed to the spot they agreed it was out of place and they walked closer and realized there were niches cut into the building but if the sun didn’t hit them a certain way they would’ve appeared to be invisible. Wufei walked over and put one foot in one niche and then placed his hand in one above his head and started to climb up to the roof which shocked him because it was flat only gave the appearance of being a pointed roof. He looked down at his lovers and said, “Come up here its flat.” They followed him up and saw the same thing along with a hatch door and they realized there were two ways to get up to the roof one on the outside and one on the inside. Wufei looked around the roof and realized this was a good spot for sparring. Quatre saw a door leading to what looked like the chimney so he opened it to reveal a storage room where mats and such were kept but there was a separate chamber that allowed the smoke out without damaging the equipment. There was also a place to sit down on the roof and just gaze at the stars, in the room they also noticed sleeping bags which meant her guests would probably come up onto the roof to get away for a bit.

Trowa opened the hatch and climbed down the stairs leading to a dark passage but their were lamps mounted onto the wall that they could turn on but neither did instead they used their exceptional sight and made their way through the dark passage to a door and passed a few doors but they continued to the last one and opened it to reveal the basement which was decorated as a gym there were mats everywhere, a punching bag, a few weapons and weights and a sofa pushed against the wall incase there was an audience. They closed the hidden door and walked up to the first floor and opened the door which led them to the hallway. Duo walked into the living room again and sat down on the sofa and noticed the machine was blinking so he pressed messages as the others sat down and they heard the machine speak-You have 5 new messages. Message1- they heard Relena’s voice, “Hey Marimeia I know it’s weird to call your own place but I thought I’d tell you what have to do. All I need you to do is make sure everything is clean. Vacuum once a week same with polishing and cleaning the glass. Dishes should be done as soon as you’re done eating and the dishwasher will help. Just collect the mail and you can watch and listen to whatever you want just don’t break them or my toys and you are not allowed to touch them. If you’re the g-boys same thing except you can play with my toys but you break them and I’ll break you. Well I should see ya in 2 weeks, oh and I’m not explaining anything to you so don’t ask me to just ignore whatever you think you know. Enjoy boys and or gal.”

-message2- They heard a cocky male’s voice, “Hey babe I know you’re going to be out for two weeks but I will come over for the weekend so I can give you your present. Tell me baby how does red rose petals spread everywhere and candles lit to set the mood and waiting on your bed will be your present wrapped up in a bow.” The five looked at each other and Wufei just pressed delete while the others smirked and waited for the other three messages which were from the same guy and Wufei quickly deleted as soon as he heard the same cocky voice. The machine said –end of messages-

The phone rang and Wufei put it on speakerphone and they heard Relena’s voice, “Hey girl I need you to do me a favor delete any messages that are from a guy before the g-boys come. You and I don’t need any more blood on our conscious. Oh and Anna if you could e-mail me the papers that are my desk I need them. Who would think I’d miss dealing with annoying politicians and having a silent guard. Let’s see what else I need to talk to you about, oh I got those pictures of the men here and let me tell you they are hot. I’m watching one right now trying to play pool and for a diplomat he’s got muscles. Mmm girl you should take a vacation here and play with these morons. Hey do you think if I acted all sweet and innocent I could fool the guys and make them do something embarrassing? Ya I guess not they’re probably awesome at pool as those muscles ripple. Damn I’m supposed to drool over other men that aren’t taken and hate me. Mm ya that’s right bend over. Girl when we have our meeting I will have pictures and a nice vid just for you. C’mon a little bit more, mmm. Oh ya I also need you to call Sylvia and tell her she has to do her own work because I’m no longer the vice-foreign minister and I hope you hurt the person who told her where I was because when I got in on my desk was a pile of her work. So how are the boys? Anna? Fine I’ll just talk and you can bloody well listen. Now, in a week it will be a certain perfect soldier’s birthday. Don’t start; I want you to send a few e-mails to his lovers telling them where to take him. Oh shut up I like making presents and don’t worry I will not be there. Shut up or I won’t bring you the pictures…well maybe I’ll just keep the video’s to myself and add it to my stash. Oh my god he’s shirtless mmm c’mon take those damn pants off. Oh where was I? That’s right his b-day. So I talked to J and the other docs and after promising them some toys they agreed to give me their missions so for a week maybe two the five will be left alone in a remote cabin. I still don’t know why they’re so wary about letting me handle the missions I mean I got the information and I didn’t kill anyone is it my fault I didn’t know it was a test and screwed their hard drive up? They so deserved it they pissed me off. Anyway I’m going to go and win some more money plus watch the meat. Do you think it would be wrong to buy them and take them home? I mean this one is shirtless and he has bulging muscles in his arms and a nice 40 pack and he’s bending and his rear is so tight. Do you think this place would miss him? Ya I figured as much. Ok well I’m going to go and maybe win some more money and more material for my camera and vid collection. Talk to ya in a few. Oh and if you’re the boys these guys are so sexy I might just take one home but they’re off limits you have each other.”

Duo turned the speakerphone off and turned to the others, “Seems we have much to talk about when she gets back.”

Wufei glared, “I want to burn those tapes it’s dishonorable.”

Quatre smirked, “Hate to say it but it’s not, because she thinks we hate her and we’re together. Now let’s e-mail her the stuff she needs along with a little memo.”

They walked over to her study and Duo opened it again then Heero walked in and sat behind her desk and booted up her computer and a window with her name popped up as Lena then under it was a space for the password. Heero tried a few possibilities before finding the right one which didn’t make too much sense to him but figured it would be one more thing to talk to Relena about. Once the password was approved he was taken to the desktop where a beautiful ocean scene with a castle on the shore appeared. The castle looked as if the waves were either calling it back to the ocean or building it up, Heero clicked on the internet icon and instant messengers popped up from and .

Goddess_of_death: Hey Lena you enjoying your vacation away from the boys? I bet Hades and the others would be shocked to know the ‘real’ you.

Goddess_of_war: Oh hell ya. You beat me and I even beat Sandrock. It would be a splendid battle to see you take on the five and win. I bet they would never question your strength. So do you have any pictures for us?

Princess_of_peace: We are shocked Persephone and Athena but we are very pleased. There won’t be any more pictures though because our dragon says it’s dishonorable. I agree Athena it would be a ‘splendid battle’ to see her face off against us. Anything about our princess you want to tell us?

Goddess_of_death: Who?!

Goddess_of_war: Yuy?!

Princess_of_peace: Yes and the other pilots as well. We want to get to know Relena and if you can help fine otherwise the mission will be completed with or without your help.

Goddess_of_war: Hmm. What you learn might change your mind about wanting to know her. She doesn’t want pity or false sympathy. She’s been through it before. I will not tell you anything but she has a diary you should read. It’s in her book shelf there are two versions the black book with a gold strip on the binding is the ‘sugar coated’ version. The blue book in the end table by her bed is the full version with curses and her true thoughts. If you guys want to know her then read that if you only want to learn about her because you’re curious read the black version. I will warn you though boys if your feelings for her change and you think you want to court her good luck. She’s frozen her heart so nothing touches it except for what she wants. Men are meat to her she looks and ogles but never touches. Hurt her and I swear I will kill you all, Quatre was nothing on the zero system compared to what Hilde and I will do not to mention what Lena would do.

Goddess_of_death: Dorothy, are you sure you should be helping them? They hate her she’s told us what they’ve said hell I think it was part of her journal. Fine ok boys don’t hurt her because like Dorothy said there is nothing like the wrath of a woman scorned. Take care of her and if you want to see what she can do in the cabinet under the TV is her vid collection there are things that she did with us, Noin, Zechs, Sally, Lady Une, and Mariemeia plus vids about her past. Some might make you cry but maybe not because you aren’t girls. Well I’m going to go now don’t hurt her she’s been through enough pain…emotional and physical.

Princess_of_peace: We’re not going to hurt her!

Goddess_of_death: Good because then I don’t have to hurt you.

Goddess_of_war: Good then I don’t have to cut off your ‘brains’ take care of her.

Heero closed the windows and signed off then opened her e-mail and clicked on the folder marked ‘vacation’ and sent her the whole folder in the attachment window. He decided to write more than just the simple attached documents.
