The echoing of gun shots burn into the dreams of the 02 pilot as he lay there on his back, his eye brows frown as he has a nightmare. The screams and shouts of the ones who he has killed over and over again rush through his mind like an icy cold wave that splashes down on the young chestnut haired boy. Duo sat up in bed gasping with both hands straight out in front of him trying to ward off the wave. He panted for breath as if he just surfaced from the water. His Dark bangs tickle his nose, his chestnut braid was across his chest in a thick silky frizzy looking sash. The covers he had been sleeping under had slipped down to his muscular thighs which he wore white cotton boxers over.

Duo then ran his hand through his bangs and shook his head at the annoying images and voices that forever haunted him when sleeping. “Eh,” he groaned, his voice was deep but lovely but sounded groggy in the early morning hours. “Get a hold of yourself, Maxwell.” He tells himself. He then glances over at the clock on the nightstand of the 123 Motel where Duo had decided to stay for the evening while he waited for dawn to come so he could do yet another mission. He had only met one other person like himself but they ended up stealing from him even though he helped them out. It didn’t matter what Duo did because everything he tried to do, even if it was good, always ended up going wrong for him.

The red numbers of the clock looked back at him. It was 4:00 a.m. and Duo groaned then shook his head. This was the third time that he had woken up that night. He always had trouble sleeping though when he did get some he enjoyed himself thoroughly. The Motel room was dark at the moment but Duo reached over to the nightstand table and flipped the light on. He pushed the covers away from his legs and turned them to the side and set his feet on the dingy brown rug. The motel he was staying at was off the beaten track plus he had to have thick forest to hide his Gundam. So, this motel was perfectly nestled deep in the forest of Canada.

The motel, of course, is near Duo’s next target in which he could get a start on if he wasn’t going to sleep anymore. This was Duo’s fate, he accepted it now even if he didn’t like killing all those people. He had to do this now there was no turning back he couldn’t let Solo, Sister Helen, or Father Maxwell down. If he did, then they would have all died in vain, especially father Maxwell who had done so much to try and bring peace, but had only been brutally killed for it.

Duo sat on the edge of his bed with his hands on his bare knees, kind of going back into a thoughtful state of mind. He was thinking back on why he was here. He shook his head a bit again, maybe he was more tired then he thought if he was just going to zone out on the edge of the bed, which wasn’t very comfortable to start with. Of course the sheets were white, the pillows were white, and the bed had an ugly brown comforter over it with yellow flowers on it. The walls were a decaying looking wood paneling while there were two large windows on either side of the red door on the left hand side of the bed. The ugly brown drapes had been shut firmly and there was a table in the corner. A black long duffle bag resided on the table which held an automatic rifle, two hand guns, and the bombs Duo was going to have to set off around the sleeping dorms of the enemy.

Duo stood up and picked up a packet of cigarettes from the nightstand and he pulled out one of the long sticks. Another habit he didn’t really care for, but it helped clam his nerves greatly. He put the unlit stick in his mouth and walked across the motel floor and he starched his arms over his head. He was shirtless and his body was very fit. When he moved, it would be easy to see his muscles moving with every movement he made. He didn’t appear to look that strong at all, to most he’d look like a puny kid unless they saw him undressed. Then they would see he had muscles on his arms and legs that probably were even firmer then most adults. Of course, he’d have to look fit if he was going to be an undercover Gundam Pilot and he had to be better then the rest of the normal soldiers. He did look pretty light and skinny, none the less, which was a good way to make the soldiers put their guard down when they fight him, thinking he is easy to kill.

Duo had made the short trek across the bedroom to his duffle bag and unzipped the side pocket and reached in, pulling out a black lighter. He turned away from the duffle bag and he brought his right hand up to the white stick hanging out of his mouth. He then struck the lighters little metal wheel to make the flame spark up, putting his cigarette to the orange flame and inhaled getting the end of the cancer stick to light up. Once he got it lit, he turned off the lighter then he sucked in the smoke and let it fill his lungs. He then pulled the white stick away and blew the grey smoke out into the air. With a sighing of some what relief, thanks to the nicotine. He then turned back around put his lighter in his pack.

He then turn around from the table and walked over to the bed again. He sat down and brought the cigarette up to his lips again, placing his left arm on his right bicep then folded his legs under him and took another drag, inhaling the horrible smoke then blew it out once again. He moved his right hand to the ash tray in the middle of the night stand and tapped the white stick with his index finger to get the ashes off the end. Duo would enjoy his early morning cigarette before he decided to go and kill anyone because he had at lest three hours to kill anyways. He was suppose to be up at seven and be there at the base by Seven thirty and sneak in and blow up the soldiers and the mobile suites. Though, at this rate, if he snuck in earlier maybe he could just use his Gundam… No he couldn’t do that. He shook his head, Doctor G said he didn’t want to risk the Gundam Being seen in Canada right now even if Duo could put himself on stealth mood. Doctor G told Duo he had to test out some of his skills with out Deathscythe which was stupid to Duo, he thought.

Then again Duo loved challenges, he smirked to himself as he thought about all of this and unfolded his legs and put them back on the floor, snubbed out his cigarette in the ash tray and it gave off a hissing sound as the little fire was put out.

Duo then stood up and walked across the room to the little bathroom on the other side of the room and flipped on the light. He then walked to the small square mirror that hung over the small sink. Duo saw his hair was pretty frizzy, so he took out the black hair tie and unbraided his mass of hair and walked back out of the bathroom with his fingers shaking his hair loose. Duo shut off the light and went toward his bag again, moving his head from side to side. He then stopped in front of the table, reached into the same pocket the lighter was in and took out a black comb. Duo stood in the middle of the room letting his long brown hair drape to one side then ran the comb through his hair, getting out knots and tangles the best he could. Then he braided his hair again in its normal low braid with his bangs ever framing his face in a nice cute fashion. His hair looked nice and not so frizzy and more, pretty much his hair was back to his liking.

Then he put his comb back in his bag and got out a grey janitors jump suite. He pulled it on and on the right breast pocket was the name Jake. He slid his arms into the sleeves then took a gun holster and strapped that on around himself so his guns would be on either side of his body near his heart and right breast. Duo then took out a pair of black gloves and pulled them on. Then he reached in and took one of his black guns and opened it up getting out some of the bullets from another side pocket and filled the guns full of at lest nine rounds in each gun. He snapped the gun shut and spun it skillfully around on his index finger before he slid it with ease into his gun holder and did likewise with the other. Once he was armed with his guns, he zipped up the jump suite, which was baggy enough to hide the two weapons.

Duo then took out his Automatic rifle and checked it over as well making sure it was fully loaded. Even though he checked it the night before, he could never be too careful. He then put it back in his bag. He took out the silver discs which were the bombs he’d be planting around the base. Everything seemed perfect and in order maybe he was over checking he thought to himself and he put the disc back. Then he took out his I.D. he’d wear around his neck which he slid over his head. Then he twirled his hair up and stuck it under a grey knitted toboggan and he pulled his bangs out from under it. It made him look hot though he couldn’t tell that. It was winter time so, this wouldn’t be to out of place, gloves and toboggans. He then zipped up his pack once he got everything inside it again.

He walked over to the door where his boots were and slid them on. He then bent down and tied them up. He had two throwing daggers on the inside of his boots. He was bent over at the waste with his bum toward the door and tied both his boots. He then stood back up and starched his hands over his head then brought them down to his sides. He left the motel key on the table then walked to the lamp in the room and turned that off. Then he walked back to the table shoulder, grabbing his duffle then walked to the door and opened it.

Cool air brushed over his cheeks as he exited into the snowy early morning. Duo could see his breath, the morning looked mint blue the snow gave off a cool glow so Duo could see some what. He shut the motel door and there were no cars in the parking lot besides the one of the owner. Across the street was thick fur tree forest that went on for miles.

Duo turned to the right of the building passing twelve more rooms as he walked down the snowy sidewalk. He came to the end of the walkway and there was a high snow covered hill running up into some thick trees also the forest ran behind the motel. Duo looked behind himself one more time not see anyone or feel like anyone was watching him he walked onto the little side yard of the motel. There was a five foot fence with bushes growing in front of it that was twenty four yards away from the back of the building. Duo walked over to the fence and reached his arm over setting his bag down on the other side gently then let go. Duo put his hands on the metal rail of the fence and swung his legs over with skilled ease and he landed in a bank of snow that came up to his knees.

He then picked up his duffle bag and made his trek through the forest toward the Oz Base that was only a good mile away from the little motel which was enough for Duo’s bombs to not affect the motel. Though he was sure it could be blown up as it would probably do the owner a favor.

Duo enjoyed his walk through the forest and he liked that it was so peaceful. There were no sounds at present since most the animals were sleeping or hibernating and not many creatures moved about during cold snowy mornings like this. He wasn’t surprised if they were all nested up some place trying to stay warm.

The tree trunks were high and dark as most of the trees were sleeping as well so, Duo could see the sky above. It looked like a dark blue velvet blanket with specs of diamonds sprinkled across it. Duo’s cheeks were feeling the cold burn of the morning though thankfully it wasn’t windy.

He leapt over a cool running stream to the other bank and walked up the little hill that he had already scooped out the evening before. With that knowledge, he knew how to get into the base without being seen. Duo was good at that stuff, at not being seen and blending in if he really needed to. As he came to the edge of this forest, he came to a high grey wall. This oz base would not be excepting anything or anyone coming. At present, they thought this base was the best hidden so their guard would be down. Duo had found this out the day before when he scanned the area.

That is why he was able to come to a metal door that was at the back of the base which he still didn’t get why the hell they had one right next to the forest, but hell it was convenient enough for him. So, he wouldn’t complain. He reached up and put his I.D. tag to the bar scanner and a red light went over it. Then there was a small beeping sound and the door slid open.

Duo stepped inside the hall and the door slid shut behind him. There was at lest four dorms he had to hook bombs up too and they were all in a square right next to where Duo had entered. Duo was never one who liked to mess around. So, once he was inside he headed to the first dorm building in front of him which had at least four stories. Duo was a bomb expert and knew how to wire all four buildings up, pretty much with four discs and kill every single person inside without even going inside. He knelt down behind the building, set his duffle bag down, and unzipped it. He reached in and grabbed the disc that said number one on it which would be the one to set all the rest off. Duo then opened a little latch on the bomb and flipped a switch that would turn it on. Then he shut the flap then pressed the bomb to the wall and it latched on with little metal gripping fingers.

Duo then did likewise with the other three buildings and he made his way across the court yard to the five mobile suit hangers which held at lest fifty mobile suites each. Duo had even found out how long the guards would go on brake and he only had five minutes to get across the court yard before he was seen. There was a long cement pathway which had trees growing on either side with flags between them and it lead to the main gate which was half a mile away.

Duo managed to get across the court yard to the first building and walked behind it attaching yet another bomb to it and did likewise with the rest of the buildings. Duo then heard voices of the night guards coming toward him as he set the last bomb. Shit, he thought and he removed the bomb sliding inside the fifth hanger’s door and set the bomb behind a barrel of gasoline. Then he walked through the hanger, luckily no one was in there, Duo thought as he then made his way through the towering twenty foot tall mobile suits. He came to the front hanger door and opened it then shut the door seeing no one was around, he walked back the way he came.

He got to the exit of the Oz base and let his card clock him out and the door slid open. He exited glad he got all of this done in a matter of fifteen minutes. He had already rigged the outside of the base with bombs as well even the guard’s station was loaded as he had done this the day before. Duo made his trek back through the forest as he smirked to himself he pulled out his long slender detonation switch from his pocket. He was half a mile away now, which was good enough. He then turned around, put his left hand on his hip, and then brought the switch out in front of his face. “So long to one more Oz base, The God of death strikes again silent, but true.” He said to himself before pressing the button with his thumb.

Without warning, not even a siren to alert the men, the early morning then came to life with large explosions. Duo saw the mushroom cloud and orange fire shoot up into the air. It was as if a volcano exploded under the Oz Base. There was a soft rumbling as the ground shook and Duo smirked a bit. He thought it looked lovely, his work. “Hmm Mission complete,” he muttered to himself.

He then made his way through the cold, foot deep snow to his Gundam, which he had put on stealth mood next to some mountains. He had carved a cross into one of the trees which was a marker for himself so he could tell where Deathscythe’s leg was sitting. He reached into his duffle bag and took out a black remote with a red button on it, pressing it and there was a hissing sound above Duo as he saw the inside of Deathscythe’s cockpit. He then took out a metal handle that had a large magnetite on the end and pointed it under the door of Deathscythe and pressed a button on the inside of it as a metal cable shot up into the air and stuck to the door, making a clanking sound. Duo then road up on the cord, sailing through the air till he got to the open door. He climbed inside and set his bag down and removed his cable cord from the outside of the Gundam. Then he pressed a button on the inside of the Deathscythe, the hatch closed with Duo inside. He then removed his hat, letting his long braid fall down the middle of his back.

It felt better now that he was free and he took off the jumpsuit, redressing in his normal priests uniform. He then turned on a monitor to his right that was used to contact Doctor G. The screen lit up blue on Duo’s face and he smirked seeing the weird looking doc’s face appear on it. “Mission complete!” Duo sounded proud of himself, sitting back, and crossing his arms with a very happy content look on his face.

Quatre just got back to his cabin he had bought for his own secret hiding place, he had just finished destroying the Oz Air force base in Canada also a Secret lab.

His followers also stayed in this cabin that had a hidden hanger underneath where he could hide Sandrock. He was also able to get work done on it if he needed to. At the moment now Sandrock was getting polished up from the last battle it had been in.

Quatre walked into the five room, one story cabin and set his bag down that he had taken. It had guns in it just incase he’d need them if he wasn’t in Sandrock. Quatre was always prepared for anything. There was a long bar to the left hand side of the cabin with a kitchen behind it. In the kitchen there was a refrigerator, microwave, and oven. The shelves were stocked with food and Quatre never had to worry about going hungry or finding a place to stay. To the right was a large sitting area with two long sofa’s, a fire pit, and some tables next to the sofa’s with reading material on it, also there was a large flat screen TV on the wall.

Quatre walked passed all of this to his bedroom, he felt dirty and wanted to clean up, also he always felt a tad lonely even if he was with his faithful followers. Everyone was so much older than him and he just wanted a friend his own age and he thought it would be nice. He walked into his bedroom and removed his nice brown slip on shoes and took off his purple vest and set it over the bed which had a light blue bedspread neatly made over it, the walls were wooden along with the floor. Quatre had a large desk pushed under a window that gave a lovely view of the lake and mountains and on the desk he had his computer set up. The blonde, blue eyed boy walked over to his computer and bent down pushing control and the screen he desired popped up which was the one he needed to send his report to his Doctor. He did that quickly by pushing MC and enter. That shortcut would send the report straight to the doctor and it would say, “Mission complete!” Also, Quatre wrote up his status report in his Gundam and had that ready and sent that as well.

He then stood up from his bent over position and yawned as he covered his mouth. Then he went to his bedroom door and shut it. He walked to the middle of his room untucking and unbuttoning his pink shirt, pulling it off, showing off his pretty white skin that seemed flawless, almost angel like. He was skinny but still very, very attractive. Quatre then removed his pants and boxers, walking to the bathroom in his room. He had a nice sunk in jacuzzi in the right hand corner on the same wall as the door, a sink straight a head of him with a large mirror, and a shower stall next to the sink, then a toilet beside that.

The floor was made up of black and white tile while the walls were still made of wood, just like the rest of the cabin walls. Quatre walked over to the jacuzzi and turned it on, letting it fill up then stepped inside, slid down into the water, and sighed as his body was so tight. He hated fighting, but he felt like there was no other way. He wanted to do something for his colony, for outer space, for mankind. At first Quatre didn’t give a shit about anyone or anything, but some people were able to help him snap out of his funk and began taking the world as something he needed to help out the best he could. He tried to be as positive as he could for people, even though inside he wished he could have a friend or some semi normal life. Though he couldn’t complain about sitting in a jacuzzi full of water that was soothing away his aches and pains.

He laid his blonde head back against the jacuzzi and close his eyes, trying to enjoy the water bubbling around him along with a few hours of peace before he’d have to, once again, go out and fight. He swirled his fingers around in the water and hummed a cheery tone to himself. Quatre couldn’t help but drift off into a sleep where he escaped the pressures of Gundam life for a bit and went off into some peaceful dream.

Later on that day Quatre was sitting outside on the front porch with a cup of tea and some blue burry muffins. He always had to have his tea and while doing so, he was eating with his men. They all dressed in Arabic like clothes and had dark hair, darker skin they were all talking about different things.

Quatre kind of zoned out while he nibbled on his blueberry muffin. He did this normally as he didn’t care to hear what the adults had to talk about if it wasn’t related to the war. Though, sometimes they did give good advice which helped him out. They didn’t really full fill his desire to have someone his own age he could relate with. He picked up his tea cup that had warm raspberry tea in it brought it to his lips and sipped the warm drink.

Quatre had closed his eyes, taking in the tasty tea as he heard a commotion of some of his men talking all at once. The blonde opened his eyes, set his tea cup down, and turned his head toward the pathway that lead up to his cabin. Quatre blinked his big blue eyes as two of his men held what looked to be a female struggling between there firm grips. The captive had long chestnut hair back in a braid with bangs framing their face, not to mention it was odd to see a girl wearing a priests uniform. Quatre stood up as the men came to the edge of the steps and tossed the female at Quatre’s feet. The captives hair fell over her shoulder and landed on the ground in front of them.

“We found her snooping around the perimeter,” One of the men reported to Quatre. “We found these on her.” He said, dropping the gun holster with two hand guns in them. The front of the new person’s shirt had been tugged open a bit showing off the grey shirt underneath.

Duo grunted as he was tossed down on the hard wooden front porch onto his face he leaned on his elbows and looked up at the blonde kid who looked to be his age. His violet eyes gleamed up into Quatre’s blue eyes. “For the billionth time I am not a female!” Duo snapped in annoyed tone at the block heads, “I wasn’t snooping per say I was just a little too curious.”

One of the men reached down and grabbed hold of Duo’s hair and pulled his head back, “Don’t speak unless spoken to you little rat.” They growled into his ear, “Curiosity killed the cat ever hear of that!?” The man shoved Duo’s head down harshly making him hit it against the deck, but not hard enough to knock him out.

“Hey, Ezekiel, don’t be so rough with him let him go, let him stand up, and let him speak!” Quatre said feeling a burning anger inside of himself Ezekiel made Quatre nervous which were reasons he kept secret but after seeing how this boy was treated. So, without hearing what he had to say first, he went on speaking, “I don’t know why you didn’t take care of this without me even knowing normally you shoot intruders.” The young blonde said putting hands on his hips. “So, since you didn’t do that, then stop treating him so rough!”

Ezekiel looked up at Quatre racking his eyes over his little toy “I am sorry Master Quatre.” He said stepping down and put his hands to his sides he also looked down acting ashamed of himself.

Quatre ignored the man for now, then bent down to Duo. “Are you ok?” He wondered in a soft kind tone , “They didn’t hurt you too much did they?” He wondered as Duo looked up at him again. Now he had a red mark in the middle of his forehead.

“Yeah I am alright.” Duo said sitting back on his knees and rubbed his forehead, “Though thanks to your moron over there, I have a headache.”

“Sorry about that, Ezekiel can be to rough” Quatre said and offered Duo his hand to help him stand up. Duo looked at it and slid his hand into his and stood up.

“Eh, you didn’t do anything, your guard there is the one who owes me an apology.” Duo said putting his hands on his hips.

“That is true, Ezekiel apologize to…” Quatre looked at the boy he didn’t know his name but there was just something about him that he really liked maybe it was something in those violet eyes. Also something made him feel not so afraid to stand up to Ezekiel who had been a fear to Quatre since he was twelve.


“Oh, Names Duo Maxwell, I may run and hide but I’ll never tell a lie that is me in a nutshell… But you can call me Duo.” Duo said putting his hand out to shake Quatre’s hand with a big cute smile.

“Oh, my name is Quatre Raberba Winner that sounds like a really good name to me Duo, also please call me Quatre.” Quatre said sliding his hand into Duo’s and they shook hands. Both young men gave each other a warm hearted smile

Ezekiel felt pissed off he didn’t like how Quatre was taking to Duo this didn’t seem good he hid his emotions. Ezekiel sighed, “I am sorry Duo for treating you so roughly, but I can’t be too careful with spies about and what not I am sorry, we are still going to have to ask him a few questions.” The older man said looking between both of the young boys.

Duo looked over his shoulder at Ezekiel, he was a tall slender man with long black hair and grey eyes and attractive, but Duo felt like this guy was eyeing him. He was still holding Quatre’s hand as he began to speak, “Oh well thanks for the apology.” Duo answered none the less, he had been trained to read people and this guy was just shady which was odd for Duo to be the one to pick this up since he was the new guy. Then again he saw the gleam of fear in Quatre’s eye.

“Of course, Of course, I want to ask him many questions myself.” Quatre answered in a light tone he hid his own emotions well. He realized that he was still holding Duo’s hand and Duo was still holding onto his. It just felt so right to hold on to each other he chuckled, being the one to realize this, he let his hand go. “Sorry about that, Duo.” Quatre said blushing.

“Again, no need to apologize to me, Quatre, you’re the nice one here.” Duo said turning back to look at the blonde and crossed his arms over his chest.

“Well, why don’t I take him inside and get him cleaned up. Also does his wound need to be looked at before you question him, Master Quatre?” Ezekiel wondered, as he came over to the two, he was eyeing Duo like a piece of meat. Quatre, at the time, didn’t notice not thinking Ezekiel would be eyeing any other kid but him, plus what Ezekiel was thinking wasn’t what Quatre was thinking at all as he was still innocent and naive in the mind no matter what the bastard did. So, there was no way Quatre could tell of Ezekiel’s bad intentions toward the new comer.

“Hmm well, I was going to be the one to take care of him.” Quatre began seeming a bit let down by Ezekiel’s seemingly kind offer.

“Well, I am the one who roughed him up. It would be like an apology jester type of thing you understand, Master Quatre?” Ezekiel wondered bowing his head a little and put a hand to his chest. He put on a good act in front of the others he knew Quatre’s main body guard would have his head for super if he found out what things he did to the young lad.

Duo smirked and put his hands behind his head and crossed one foot over the other, this guy was too much he thought. He looked at Quatre who looked over at Duo and bit his lip. Duo frowned a bit noticing his slight fear of Ezekiel. “Well, I suppose I see what you mean. Yes, very well then, take care of him and have him ready in twenty minutes. We will have second tea on the patio.” Quatre chuckled since they were kind of in the middle of tea at the moment, but it wasn’t like he finished it.

Duo chuckled. “Look, I am more than capable of tending to my own wounds,” he tried to tell them bringing his arms down to his sides again.

“Don’t be silly, that isn’t my way. I like to treat everyone kindly who has been wronged. So, please take our generosity.” Quatre said to Duo looking at him seriously and also put a hand to his heart and bowed his head.

Duo sighed. He was too cute! “Alright, alright, but I ain’t use to this kind of thing.” He shrugged.

“Well then Duo, if its decided then fallow me.” Ezekiel spoke up and walked around them toward the front door of the cabin.

“Well it’s ok don’t worry, I’ll see you in twenty minutes ok?” Quatre said with a sweet smile. If only Quatre actually knew what Ezekiel really was attempting, Duo sighed. He couldn’t just blurt that out, he’d seem crazy as Ezekiel wasn’t really doing anything wrong at the moment.

“Oh yeah, of course, take care of my guns, I’ll want them back.” Duo gave a little smile and a wave at Quatre then turned and fallowed after Ezekiel into the cabin.
