Nameless Ship

“Captain we’ve made it successfully through the transport.”
“Good the engines are ok.”
“Yea but Noins’ ‘bout fraged.” Duo replied.
“Well this is her second time through hyperspace. And what I can’t understand is how you can make it through so well but can’t take off form Earth.”
“HEHE…. Yea I’m still tryin’ to figure that too…HU?”
“What is it?”
The pilot had picked up a box floating in the vacuum of space.
“It looks like a container of some sort captain.” He said as he zoomed in on the metal object.
“Let me see?”
The blue eyed pilot patched the image through to the captain who examined it for several minutes before ordering it to be brought aboard.
“What if it’s a Bomb?”
“I don’t think it is?”
“Alright can you get Wu in here to get the grappler arms he’s better at them then I am.”
Wufei appear moments later and took his seat in front of his controllers.
“Steady there Wu –bear. Don’t want to die…”
“Shut up Maxwell!” Wufei snapped as he grabbed the case and drug it towards the hanger.
“Opening hanger Door…Now.” Duo said as he pushed the button to open the doors.
Setting the case on the ground Duo turned on the magnet floor (for lack of a better word) and waited for Wufei to get his arm out before closing the door.
The 3 walked down the hall to the hanger with Sally and Heero at their sides to see what was in the box.
“If its money I get half because I found it.”
“I got it Baka!”
“Yea that’s why I only get half you can split up the rest between yourselves.” Duo said with a sly grin.
As the team entered the hanger Noin had just joined them to see what all the fuss was about.
“You ok L.T.?”
“Yea … I think a little soup will help.”
“It has a combination lock on it.” A monotone voice said as it knelt down to inspect the holder.
“Let me see.” Duo said as he pulled a small decoder out of his pocket he uso ofo often to get midnight snacks out of the kitchen.
“Llalalalalal” A barrage of #s and letters flew by until they finally landed on a combination. “H1T3RPZS6”
Almost instantly the case decompressed with a cloud of steam and began to open.
Wufei Pulled out his sword and readied himself while Heero and Trowa each pulled out their guns.
“What?!!?”
The group was agust when a body met their eyes. Trowa blinked @ a boy with little more then a cloth to cover him who was curled up in a ball.
“Count down for reanimation beginning. Do not interrupt or data will be lost.” A computer generated voice said as a small clock appeared and began to count down from 30 minutes.
“What dose it mean Data?” Sally asked.
“I’m not sure?” the captain said.
“30 minutes until we find out though.” Heero said.
Duo sat down on the floor as the other crew members found a spot around the boy and waited. 15 minutes past and the group was warned by a constant beep that sounded after 19 minutes until finally each crew member found his or her self holding their breath and waiting with anxious gazes.
“0.00”
More smoky steam escaped the case as the body stood.
“I am Quatre. Number 004. Awaiting command.”
“Quatre?” Trowa repeated the boy’s name.
Tears began to well in the boys eyes and in 10 seconds he had fallen to his hands and knees in a flood of tears.
“Get a blanket!” Trowa ordered Sally as he knelt down to ahe bhe boy.
Quickly returning with a comforter she handed to the man, Trowa wrapped the blonde in and lifted him off the floor.
“Get the door. Sally I’m taking him to the lab.” Trowa barked as he carried the boy down the hall of the ship.
Still crying the blue eyed boy lay his head down on the captains’ chest.
“Set him down here.” Sally ordered now taking command. Trowa followed the doctors’ order and stayed in the lab while Sally shooed the rest out.
“What did you say your name was child?” Sally asked as she grabbed her stethoscope.
“Quatre. Miss”
“Ok, Quatre, I’m going to look you over and make sure you’re not hurt or injured or carrying any disease we may catch alright. I’m not going to hurt you.”
The boy shook his head and allowed the woman to listen to his heart and look him over with her little flash light.
“Curious…” she said as she looked in to his eye.
“What is it Dr.?”
“I’m wondering, Quatre can you tell me why you were in that case?”
“I—I don’t know……. I don’t know … Who am I …?” He looked @ Trowa hoping he would have the answer. Trowa didn’t however and went to tell Heero to go get the box. Heero however was one step ahead of him and already gotten the box and his laptop. The captain had Heero take the box and find anything out about it that he could. Heero did as he was told with his lover following him.
Quatre had a hard time trying to keep his despairing tears from falling. After 20 minutes his eyes had become blood shot and his face was red and streaked with the wet salty liquid that fell from his blue orbs.
Trowa looked sadly @ the boy. He had asked Noin to make some hot tea with honey to help calm the boy and after a while it seemed to help. Sally had felt confident that the boy was safe of any immediate illnesses and was almost done looking him over when the blonde’s tears had subsided.
“How do you feel?” Trowa asked curiously.
“I feel better, Sir. Thank you for your kindness.”
“Good.”
“I’m sorry Sir I can’t help but feeling I’m a bother to you and you crew.”
“No you’re not a bother we’re just a bit curious who you are and why you were in that
Box. Do you remember anything?”
The boy hung his head and thought as hard as he could but it was no use. He could only remember his name 3 numbers and that he was to listen to whom ever was in charge.
“Hey where is Duo?” Sally asked Noin and Wufei.
“He’s with Heero do you need something?”
Sally whispered in to the girl’s ear and after a curious look Noin ran off to get Heero.
“What is it?” Trowa asked
Sally spoke softly to him and the little Quatre over heard was something about a bar code.
Heero returned a while later with a portable scanner and 2 of Duo’s mirrors.
“Come here Captain.” She said as she walked around behind the boy. Trowa was surprised to find the boy had a bar code on his neck just below his hairline.
“Do you know what this is Quatre?” Sally asked as she held the mirror to his back and the other to his face so the 2 reflected each other.
Quatre studied the lines for a few moments before saying the name of a planet, a person, an6-di6-digit number.
“Can you tell us what that means?”
“May I sour our computer?”
“Do you have your laptop Heero?”
“Yea here.”
Trowa handed the computer to Quatre who examined it for a moment until he found the cable outlet.
“An android?” Noin whispered as Quatre produced a cable line out of his wrist.
The cable went in to the outlet and the screen sped through a list of internet pages until finally landing on one with a picture of a man, a scientist and a project he had been working on.
“Is there a sound file?” Trowa asked.
“Yes here.”

“Project, 205070. Quatre number 4 bio enhanced entity. The subject has been fully reanimated to suet the surroundings of the w and and people around him. Acting as human as most, we will begin introducing him to other life forms. Since this time in its creation, the subject has had all memory erased and all contact with his family friends and others have been cut off. I, Dr. H, Dr O, Dr. J, Dr. G and S have been the only contact he has had since the project began in AC 183.”
“Quatre Say hello.” Another voice said
“Hello,” a soft silky almost incoherent voice spoke.
The group looked @ the blond the the man kept speaking.
“Now Quatre can you please come here.”
“What is that?”
“It’s called a cat. What?!?!?!?!?!?”
Crashing sounds and gunfire rang through were ever the recorder was and the group heard Quatre holler as he was taken.
“No body move! Try some thing Stupid and you’ll regret it.”
Foot steps chimed away into a faded echo as whoever had just raided the place ran.

“What just happen Quatre?” Duo said to the boy before he realized the tears that had returned to his eyes.
“Captain I think its best we let our guest rest for the night. we can call SP in the morning and see if we can’t get some information.”
“They….and I…… I couldn’t stop them. They killed H.” He cried into his hands.
“It’s ok they won’t hurt you now…” Duo said as he rubbed the boys back.
The blonde continued to cry until Trowa asked his crew to return to their stations. He would stay there with Quatre to make sure he was ok. Until then he wanted Duo to tap into any Space Trucker coms and Noin to make a g bed bed. The crew followed orders and left shutting the door behind them.
“Shhhh… its ok. Don’t cry.” Trowa said as softly as possibly.
::Sniffle::
Trowa sat down on the table next to the boy and rubbed his back in small circles like Duo hane. ne.
“They took me away. I don’t know what to do now.” Quatre cried as he fell onto Trowa’s chest.
“Hn?”
The captain wasn’t used to this close contact, but he held the boy in his arms for several minutes rocking him back and forth until the child stopped crying and started listening to the man’s heart beat.
The rhythmic beating of the muscle had relaxed him and in a short amount of time the boy started to doze off. His head fell limp after a minute or so and Trowa smiled at the sleeping boy.
Maneuvering himself around the body the captain ed ted the form and carried him out the door. The bed was ready. Noin had made a cot in the Captain’s quarters. Trowa wasn’t sure if the boy would be comfortable there so he lay him gentle in his own bed and covered him to his neck.
“S “Sleep well. We’ll get you home.”
Trowa said as he left his room and walked down to the control room.

“Really what kind of case?”
“Steal. Had a combo lock on it so I’m sure it’s still safe but the gift inside is for my wife so I’m like really hoping to get it back.”
“AHHH Lost a gift for you’re wife well you better find it. Where did you say you lost it?”
“Near L7.”
“Really well I’m headed that way so if I find it I’ll give you a Ring.”
“Alright thanx man!”
“No problem. Good luck.”
