Shi walked over and climbed into Shenlong’s lap. Shenlong
wrapped his arms around him. Shi turned andked ked at the other pilots. "I
kit’sit’s a lot of questions and mainly it’s you who have to answer them.
Shini, you want me to go and let you five talk to them?"
"No stay, Shi. And Shi is right. You will need to
answer these questions and we can’t help you much with them, rules you know.
For now, ask questions and we’ll try to answer them.
Wufei turned to Shenlong, "Why? Why all this? You claim
that we are your avatars, why did you make us? You are supposed to be a god or
power of justice. What justice? What am I supposed to do?"
"Yes, Wufei, justiWhatWhat justice was there when Shi’s
family was killed, when his town was slaughtered all because of jealousy? You
are our avatars, but as with all humans, you work better with free will.
Unfortunately, this free will allowed Gravis to destroy so many lives. You are
our avatars but you are human. Yes, we created you but until you make a
conscious willing choice to serve us we can do nothing. My only avatar at the
time was a 97-year old woman that lived almost a thousand miles away, I could
not help him.
"Justice, Wufei, not revenge like Master O taught you.
He has you fight for revenge, for vengeance. Vengeance is the other side of
justice and as much capacity you have for just you also have for vengeance. I
do not seek vengeance. Wufei, would you take my counsel if I would give it to
you?"
"Of course."
"Very well. Listen to Shi, he knows more about
vengeance and justice than you. Not because he is better than you but rather
because he has lived for so long. If you are ever in doubt, ask him. He is my
best student and for good reason, I've been teaching him longer than any other,
neh?" Shenlong kissed Shi’s cheek. "In him, I have placed a lot of
power."
Wufei looked at Shenlong and his behavior. Wufei opened his
mouth to ask another question but appeared to think better.
"You are of course wondering why my actions are so much
different from yours, Wufei, yes? Easy, I am not burdened down by mortality. I
do not worry what others think of me or if my actions are acceptable, my worry
is for justice and honor above all. And in the name of Justice, I, as well as
these eight others, have for all intents adopted Shi."
"You see," Shi said as he looked around,
"They are not only my mother, father, brothers, and sisters, but they have
been my lovers as well. One thing I noticed was how relationships in this realm
between powers is reflected in this realm. Example, Wing Low and Shinigami are
a couple and out there so is Heero and Duo. Don’t even blow me off Duo, Heero’s
been way too busy hacking into my files to be unconcerned. Trowa somehow knew
instinctively not to worry about me but Quatre is worried about what influence
I have of Trowa and for that he’s been watching me like I’m some sort of
assassin. But I know how deep they feel. Sometimes when I stayed with them, I
was sure they forgot I was there. They did not neglect me, just sometimes they
were happy just to be close to each other. It’s wonderful."
"Cool!" Duo looked at Shi. "But what about
Shen…"
"Shenlong has not yet chosen a mate, though Shen has
had at times lovers. Any questions from the sadly neglected other eight
powers?" smirk.
"Very funny, Shi." Shinigami replied as he lightly
whacked his son upside the head. "Everyone we don’t have much time left. I
ask you now. Will each of you give us your oath, your service."
"Yeah."
"Duo, we can not take a ‘yeah’. You have to give a
formal oath. This oath takes precedence over ALL others. Think on it."
Wufei walked over to where Shenlong sat and knelt before
him. "I, Chang Wufei, do give my oath, upon my spirit and soul to serve
you, Shenlong, Power of Justice and Vengeance, Power of Honor. This oath is
above all and or my entire life. To you, for you, and only you will I
serve."
"I, Shenlong, Power of Justice and Vengeance and Honor,
take you, Chang Wufei, into my service as avatar and my right hand. Let them
know that everything done unto you is done unto me. To you I grant my
power." Shenlong’s voice deepened, a hint of a dragon’s roar sounded far
away in his voice.
Where Wufei had stood was a new Wufei, he shone to their
eyes and seemed calmer. One by one each pilot too their oath to their Power.
After theirhs ths the four Powers who did not take oaths left. The five pilots
sat opposite of the five Powers.
"Very well, we can only give you a rundown on your
powers, nothing exact. And some advice. For more data on your abilities ask
Shi. We only have a little time. It will be soon, Shi." Shi climbed down
from Shenlong’s lap and aged himself eight years. Grabbing a chair, he sat with
the other pilots.
"Fine, give them advice now, I’ll handle the rest
later." Shi laid his head on the table, smiling at his family.
"Very well, Wing Low?" Shenlong nodded, his hair
sliding over his shoulder.
"Heero, you were designed to be the perfect soldier by
Doctor J. Unfortunately he does not know what it means to be a perfect soldier.
I am Wing Low, Power of War, Combat, Soldiers. Do you believe that I know what
it is to be a ‘Perfect Soldier’?" Wing low asked, his cobalt eyes staring
at the young man.
"Hai."
"Then know this. You are my avatar, as was Gravis, both
of you have choices. I make in you the ability to be a perfect soldier
and this is what Doctor J saw in you. Since you are mine, you can be the
perfect soldier. Only, and only, if you obey yourself. Now one thing that ranks
only slightly lower than that. Listen to Shi, I have been training him for over
ten thousand years. By now, he has learned how to be a soldier." Wing Low
reached over, the shining steel wrist gaurds flashing, and took Heero’s hands,
"And remember not only are you mine, but I love you. Heavyarms?"
"Trowa, Let’s be brief." Sandrock leanerwarrward,
emerald eyes serious yet loving. "Trust Shi, he is of the people. He knows
all you will ask of him. He will never abandon you. You are already what you
need to be. You only need to become more so and you know it. As Shi would say,
True to yourself is all you need. Be safe, Trowa. Sandrock?
Sandrock leaned over, brushing the fine blond strands from
Quatre’s face, "My child, I am the Power of the wind, the sands, the
djinn. Do you ever wonder why the Maganacs chose you? You are marked as mine.
Your very nature is as mine. You have so much power, so much ability. In you,
you have the power, much like the desert wind to strip something to it’s bare
bones, to cover a thing so it can not be seen by any, or to build it up. Take
pride in who you are, not in your work. For although it is wondrous,
what you are when everything is taken away is what you were created to be,
Quatre." Smiling, Sandrock caressed his cheek. "Again, I will urge
you to listen to Shi, for he has been a ruler of a land of a billion and a
ruler of a house of two. Know when to ask him for help. Shinigami?"
Shinigami grinned at Duo, flipping his braid tip against his
earlobe. "Duo, continue as you have. Stop being so arrogant and teasing
the OZ soldiers. You’re such a brat, but a lovable brat, my brat. Shi has
pretty much molded you the way that was needed, but can you do me one favor?
Talk to Shi. You are holding too much in. Now go. You can come back to this
realm but we can not meet again. Good bye." The Powers got up and walked
out.
"Come on," Shi turned and led the others back into
his room. "Sit down. Out there I am not Shi, I’m Hex. We can come back
whenever we want but we can’t meet with the Powers until it’s over."
"Until what is over?" Duo asked as he started
looking through the room.
"A war. Part of this one yet not. This is not normal.
We don’t fight each other. You see there is Order and Chaos. The Powers of
Order and Chaos are separate though they need each other. The Power of Order
decided to spilt up its domain. Those splits became the Powers we know. But the
Power of Chaos has never spilt so it is only one power. We fight chaos. We
avatars of Order may not agree all the time but we don’t fight each other,
ever. So, if you can, if it’s at all possible, please don’t kill Zechs, Noin,
Une, and Trieze. If you have to, then do it. Now let’s get some sleep."
Shi pulled out extra futons and offered them to the pilots. He made sure that
each pilot had a pillow and a coverlet. "Tomorrow we go back to
school."
The pilots sat in the dark, staring up. Shi waved his hand
and the ceiling disappeared to reveal the night sky.
"Shi, how are we going to do this?"
"Duo, you’re the fighter pilot. Why ask me?"
"Because you were a fighter pilot longer than us and
you know more about this…" Duo waved blankly.
"Duo! I’m here to help you, I already raised you, I
don’t know what to do."
"Sorry."
"Don’t be. I’m just pissed cause, I wasn’t prepared to
be cut off from Shinigami. It’s disturbing."
"Can you do anything, Musuko?" Wufei demanded.
"Yes, Wufei, I can go to sleep and have this
conversation tomorrow."
"Coward."
"Yes, Flying Five, I am." Shi lifted his
head. "I am concerned not with my damn personal honor but whether or not
this planet shall survive, if our people, humans, will. In the ten thousand
plus years I have lived, I have never had to be caught in the crossfire of so
many avatars. Give me a break this something new to me too. Now go to
sleep!" Shi sighed, "Look, I apologize. I will find a way. You help
me survive the Gundams and I will find a way for you to discover what you can
do. Trust me. I have never let Duo down, and I won’t let you down. That you may
rely on." Though I don’t know how I will.
"‘K."
As the boys settled in, Shi drifted off. So fast asleep was
Shi, that he did not see Wufei reach up from beside him and brush the hair from
over Shi’s eyes. "I trust you."
