/shadow talk/

~thoughts~

The shadows moved restlessly as General Shiista stalked to the throne room.  Her face was a blank mask as she stared ahead, posture rigid as she walked.  She entered into the room and then knelt before a throne.  The only thing you could see was a white hand holding a staff and glowing red eyes that glittered with anger.

/You show yoursself well, SSShiissstaa./ A cold voice scratched the air from the throne.  Shiista flinched and bowed her head.

/Yess, my Queen,/ she replied quietly.

/Tell me, SSShiissstaa, why have two of the Gundam pilotsss reccceived their yoroi?  And why aren’t the Keysss in your possssessssion?/ the voice rose in anger and the hand clenched as the eyes glowed more malevolently.

Shiista flinched again and groveled.  /My Queen, give me more time.  I will have them for you sssoon!/ she begged as she shook in fear. 

A single finger pointed at Shiista and black lightening flew from it, striking Shiista, who writhed and screamed in agony.  /I will give you one more chanccce, SSShiissstaa.  Dessstroy the remaining Gundamsss and BRING me the Keysss!/ the voice growled commandingly.  The lightening ceased and Shiista collapsed, then got up slowly, nodding weakly.  /If you fail me again, thisss punissshment will be the LEASSST of your worriesss!/  Shiista flinched again, bowed her head, and left the room swiftly.

The figure growled softly and turned to look at the figure that appeared next to her.  Arago chuckled malevolently as he came up beside her.  “My Queen, do not underestimate our opponents,” he warned as his eyes followed where Shiista had gone.

/Arago, we will not fail. The SSShadowsss will rule, and you will have your Dynasssty back,/ the voice replied, purring with evil intent.  Arago cackled and the shadows rustled in anticipation.

Eight young warriors stood in a room tensely as they watched Nasuti try to help Shu.  Wufei sat next to Shu’s bed, holding his hand tightly as he watched her bandage and fix what she could.  She stood and sighed in frustration.  “I don’t know what else to do. If we don’t get him to a hospital soon…” her voice faded and she swallowed hard.

“Then what, Nasuti?” Ryo asked softly as they watched Shu toss his head in pain, sweat pouring down his face.

Nasuti looked at him with tears in her eyes. “He has severe internal damage, Ryo.  I can’t fix that.  If we don’t get him help soon, he’ll…die,” she replied and swallowed hard again, looking over at Shu.  Wufei bowed his head and held onto Shu’s hand, almost willing him to hang on.

The Troopers growled with frustration and the other pilots hung their heads in despair.  What could they do?  The nearest hospital was in a place that was no longer safe. The other cities were at least two hours away.

“I will help him,” a soft voice declared from behind them, and they all looked in surprise to see a pale Genaisa leaning against the doorjamb.

Touma growled and walked swiftly to her side. “Are you crazy?! You don’t have the strength!” he cried as he slipped an arm carefully around her waist.

But before he could do anything, she stopped him with an angry glare.  “Would you have our friend die because of that?” she asked softly, her voice pleading as she looked into his eyes.  He tried to glare back, but he then bowed his head in defeat.  She slipped from his hold and walked slowly to Shu’s bedside.  The other warriors stepped aside, allowing her to go through.  The Troopers were tense with frustration, while the pilots watched with wariness.

Genaisa fell heavily to her knees once she got to Shu’s bedside.  She smiled reassuringly at Wufei, and then placed her hands gently on Shu’s stomach and ribs.  Closing her eyes, she concentrated and her hands began to glow.  As they watched, the glow spread quickly over Shu’s body.  Shu relaxed after a minute, his breathing evening out as the glow shrunk and faded.  He opened his eyes and looked around, his eyes locking with Wufei’s almost immediately.  They smiled at each other and then looked down at Genaisa.  Wufei moved swiftly and caught her as she went unconscious and fell bonelessly towards the floor.  Touma moved to them as the others moved slightly forward in concern.  Touma knelt down and took her in his arms and carried her gently to her own bed.

The others watched them leave with bittersweet feelings, happy about Shu being safe and alive, but upset about Genaisa’s self-sacrifice.  Seiji clenched his hands into fists as he hung his head, followed by Shin and Ryo.  The pilots looked at them with sadness and slight awe at what they had just seen.  Duo asked softly, “So that is what happens when she uses her healing ability? Why did she do it?”

Shin looked at him with sad eyes. “She’s always been willing to sacrifice everything for the people she cares about.  We’re all she has.  She would never forgive herself if any of us were hurt and she could do nothing when she knows she can,” he replied softly and Seiji growled softly to himself.  Turning, he swiftly left the room.  The others watched him leave for a minute and then turned back to Shu.  None of them saw Quatre leave the same way Seiji had left.

Shu looked at them with sadness and apology.  They saw this and smiled reassuringly.  Ryo stepped forward and took his hand. “Good to see you alive and kicking, Shu.  Don’t do that again,” he commanded teasingly and Shu smirked and nodded.  Wufei smiled and squeezed Shu’s hand again and he looked over at Wufei.  The others saw that they wanted to talk and decided to leave at that point. 

Saying well wishes for Shu, they then turned and left, leaving Shu and Wufei alone.  They looked at each other for a moment and then Wufei moved up and sat down on Shu’s bed, cuddling up to him.  Shu smiled and put an arm around Wufei soothingly and cuddled with him.  They said nothing and just lay there, happy to just be together.

*~~**~~*

Duo and Trowa went down and went into Genaisa’s room to check up on Touma and Genaisa.  They got into the room and stopped as they saw an interesting sight.  Touma held Genaisa’s hand and a blue glow surrounded his hands and flowed into hers gently.  They silently watched as the glow faded and he then put her hand down.  He moved a strand of her hair from her face and then looked over and saw them.  He smiled uncertainly and they returned the smile with assurance.  They came over closer to him and looked down at her.  She slept quietly, deeply as they watched.

Trowa looked at Touma and asked softly, “Do you have special powers like her?” Duo looked at Touma as well, curiosity shining in his eyes.

Touma shook his head and looked at them. “No, I don’t, but with our bond I am able to…share my energy with her.  My yoroi has the soul of Chi within it, so it is able to share its energy easier then the others,” he explained and then smiled as they nodded in understanding.  Looking at Genaisa one last time, they then turned and left the room, waving to Touma in farewell.  He returned the wave and then turned back to her. ~My love, please hurry and get well.  I have a feeling that we will need you,~ he thought softly as he looked at her with sadness.

*~~**~~*

Seiji walked slowly down the path that led to the nearby lake.  He was lost in his own sad thoughts and didn’t hear Quatre come up beside him.  He stopped at the water’s edge and just looked out silently, not caring about the tears that flowed down his face.  So engrossed in his thoughts was he that he jumped when he felt a gentle touch on his face, wiping the tears away.  He looked over in surprise and his lavender eyes met the aquamarine blues of Quatre.  He smiled sadly and sighed as Quatre wrapped gentle arms around him and pulled him close for a hug.  He sighed again, softly and sadly as he leaned his head down onto Quatre’s shoulders.

“What is the relationship between you and Genaisa, Seiji?” Quatre asked softly as he held onto the other blond.  Seiji stiffened slightly and leaned his head back to look at the young Arabian boy.  They stared at each and then Seiji broke the gaze.  Silently, Quatre brought his gaze back to him by putting a gentle finger under Seiji’s chin and they looked at each other again.

Seiji finally sighed and replied, “We…were lovers at one point.”

Quatre’s eyes widened in surprise and he let his hand drop. “Does Touma know?” he asked softly.

Seiji smiled. “Yes, he does…for he was there with us,” he answered quietly and Quatre’s eyes widened even further in surprise.  Seiji smiled and tentatively brought a hand up to caress Quatre’s face.  “Genaisa, Touma, and I…we’re very close.  And for a while there, we were lovers. They wanted me to know what love was so I would know it well when it finally came to me,” he explained softly as he looked shyly into Quatre’s eyes.  Quatre looked back into those lavender pools and then smiled gently.  Slowly, he leaned in and pressed his lips to Seiji’s.  Seiji moaned softly and pressed back just as hesitantly, unsure, but as they kissed, the heat and pressure increased slowly.  Seiji opened his mouth to Quatre and Quatre pushed his tongue in, gently exploring as their hands roamed across their bodies.

Soon, they were lying on the ground, Seiji on the bottom as they kissed heatedly, giving into the need of each other.  Seiji unbuttoned Quatre’s shirt and slid it off, kissing the silken shoulder revealed.  Quatre moved his hands down Seiji’s chest, and then pulled out his shirt, running his hands up the muscled torso beneath him.  Seiji moaned slightly, arching up into the gentle caresses and brought Quatre’s face to him, kissing him heatedly.  Quatre moaned softly into Seiji’s mouth and they molded together, letting the heat of passion take away the darkness that threatened to overwhelm them.

*~~**~~*

Trowa and Duo walked together towards the area where the remaining Gundams were at now.  Shin walked along with them as they looked around at the scenery.  It had been decided that at least one Trooper should go with the remaining pilots in case the Shadows attacked.  Duo looked over at Shin and admired him.  He looked up at Trowa and grinned.  Trowa returned the grin and then looked up as they arrived at their destination.  Shin sat down by a boulder and watched them as they did the diagnostics swiftly. Duo’s eyes kept on sliding over to where Shin was and he grinned at Trowa.  He always had had a special fondness for the quiet type.  Duo looked up and down Trowa secretly, admiring his lover again, amazed that they were together.  After the Mariemaia incident, Trowa had come up to him one day at the office and had quietly asked him if he had wanted to go out.  Duo smiled fondly at the memory, for ever since then they had been inseparable.  He knew that Trowa agreed with him, for they had talked about it not long after they had first met the Troopers.  Trowa had gotten to know Shin pretty well on their flight to Nasuti’s and had told Duo what he thought of him.  Duo knew that Trowa and he would probably end up being together forever, but they had also talked about some games that they could play.  Neither had felt comfortable involving their old boyfriends, Heero or Quatre; and Wufei was out of the question…or at least now he was.  Duo grinned to himself at that amusing thought.  Who’da thought Fei and Shu?  Those two hotheads were just perfect for each other.  Duo was glad that Seiji and Quatre were trying things out, though they were certainly being slow about it.  Duo frowned as he thought about another disturbing couple that had just come to mind.  He wondered if Heero and Ryo were going to be anything.  They were certainly spending an awful lot of time together. He smirked. ~Who would have thought that this mission would have ended up being a dating service as well?~ he thought to himself in amusement as he finished the diagnostics on Wing Zero.

 Just as he shut the computer down, two arms wrapped themselves around his waist.  He smiled and turned in those arms to be greeted tenderly by Trowa’s lips.  He smiled up at Trowa and kissed him back, looking over Trowa’s shoulder at where Shin was sitting, watching them.  He looked back at Trowa and grinned as he began to kiss Trowa more heatedly.  Trowa chuckled in his mouth, fully aware of what Duo was doing and enjoying it. 

Shin watched the two lovers with a mix of amusement and surprise.  As he watched them, Duo began to kiss down Trowa’s slender neck and run his hands down Trowa’s back.  He then moved his hands to the front, where Shin couldn’t see, but by the way Trowa gasped and thrust his hips forward, Shin knew fairly well what Duo was doing.  Trowa moaned softly and began to caress down Duo’s front with his hands, going over the braided pilot’s hips and then to the front where Shin again couldn’t see.  Duo’s head fell back in bliss and Shin knew then what Trowa was doing.  Shin swallowed hard as he watched the two beautiful boys in front of him basically get each other off.  He knew that he was probably bisexual.  In actuality, all of the Troopers were probably bisexual, but they really never tried to talk about it.  They never wanted to.  They shared such a deep relationship that one never thought about going any farther into another direction.  Genaisa easily flirted with all of them, but they never took advantage of her.  They all were family and knew where her heart truly lay.

Shin moaned softly and locked eyes with Duo, who smiled at him invitingly as he then licked down Trowa’s neck again.  Shin unconsciously brought a hand up and began to stroke himself somewhat to relieve his now much too tight pants.  Duo’s smile widened as he saw this and Shin found himself smiling back.  But, then, his smile faded as he felt an overwhelming sense of danger approaching.  Looking up too late, he saw a black lightening bolt come shooting towards him, blasting the boulder he had been sitting against and flinging him away.

Duo and Trowa cried out as they saw Shin get flung into a tree and knocked unconscious.  They moved to help him and another black bolt crashed down and flung them in opposite directions.  Duo landed hard and rolled to a stop, while Trowa was able to catch himself better and got up slowly.  Duo struggled to get up and felt waves of blackness wash over him.  He fought to keep awake and get up to help Trowa as he fought off the wave of soldiers that now appeared and threatened to overwhelm them.  Trowa grimly fought the soldiers and started hoping that the others appeared soon.

*~~**~~*

Heero and Ryo sat near a waterfall and talked quietly.  They had come here to just relax and were getting to know each other.  Heero had hesitantly told Ryo about some of his training and his past.  Ryo had been equally as open and told him about his childhood and how he had lost his father.  They were both feeling very comfortable with each other as they told stories from their pasts. 

Ryo liked listening to Heero and watching him.  He admired the strength that Heero had and somewhat wished he had some of that same strength.  He smiled as he remembered how Genaisa was very much the same way, but Heero was much more.  He had a wonderful smile that appeared whenever Ryo told a funny story, and Ryo kept on finding himself telling good stories to see that wonderful smile. 

Heero found himself enjoying the talk that he was sharing with Ryo.  He found he could easily confide a lot of his past to Ryo, which was unusual since it had taken the other pilots years to find out his past.  But with Ryo, it felt so natural and easy, and he loved listening to Ryo’s stories.  He felt for some reason that they were more alike than they may know.

As they were talking they felt the earth tremble underneath them and looked up in surprise.  They saw a bright light flash near where the remaining Gundams were now and got up quickly.  Realizing with horror what it could mean, they began to run towards that area, silently agreeing that they needed to get there before it was too late.

*~~**~~*

Seiji and Quatre lay together in the aftermath of their lovemaking.  Quatre’s head was lying on Seiji’s chest and his arm was across his lover’s chest.  Seiji was gently caressing the arm across his chest and held him close, cuddling him as they snuggled.  Neither said anything, both content and sated in what they had just done.  As they cuddled, they felt the earth shake and looked up in surprise.  They saw a bright light flash near where the remaining Gundams were.  They both sat upright and gasped as they felt the evil that was emanating from that place.  They quickly transformed into their subyoroi and headed quickly for that place, praying they could get there in time.

As they ran, Shu and Wufei soon joined them.  They smiled at each other and kept going.  Shu looked at Seiji and noticed a small mark on his neck.  Grinning, he locked eyes with Seiji, who nodded and smiled softly.  Shu nodded as well and turned his head forward to continue running.  Seiji hoped they were in time as they ran.

*~~**~~*

Trowa kicked at a shadow that was near him and threw it into another shadow.  He tried to get over to Duo, who was not fighting as well due to his injuries and was also protecting Shin.  He watched in horror as Duo was slowly overwhelmed and he cried out, “DUO!” Trowa began to run towards them and then stopped as instinct took over.  He began to glow a silver color and the sign of Jitsu glowed on his forehead.  Heavy Arms glowed the same color, broke apart, and flew towards Trowa, surrounding him swiftly.  The shadows hissed in anger as they saw what was happening.  Duo watched as well with wide eyes as he saw his lover appear from the light in yoroi that resembled the Trooper yoroi and his own Gundam Heavy Arms.  Trowa looked at the shadows as he moved his yoroi and brought his hand back to a small pouch at his side.  Taking his hand out and grinning, he took the stars there and spread them like a hand of cards.  Focusing on the now wary shadows, Trowa swiftly threw his stars at them, glowing lights that with each slash destroyed a shadow with a shriek. The stars returned to his hand and he grinned at them and then looked at his lover.  Duo grinned as well and then cried out as a shadow appeared behind Trowa.  Trowa turned swiftly and brought out a short sword that was at his side and slashed at the shadow, destroying it in one slash. 

As if snapping out of their shock, the shadows hissed and attacked, surrounding Trowa quickly.  Trowa fought hard, slashing with his two short swords left and right, flipping and kicking and throwing his throwing stars as he fought to protect his lover and his friend.  Suddenly, a loud shout was heard behind Duo.

“Chou....Ryuu...HA!!”

As they looked over, Shin’s attack hit the shadows, destroying a whole section in a bright band of light.  They grinned at Shin, who returned the grin and saluted as he began to attack with his nari*.  Duo chuckled lightly and then followed a sense of instinct that came to him.  Crossing his arms in front of his chest, he began to glow a black light and the symbol of Yuuko appeared on his forehead.  Deathscythe began to glow as well and flew towards the braided pilot, surrounding him in a black hole briefly.  As Shin and Trowa watched in relief, Duo emerged from the hole with a shout of wicked glee as he slashed at the shadows with his glowing scythe.  The shadows shrieked and hissed in anger as they retaliated and Duo cackled evilly, slashing at will at the shadowy creatures.  He, Trowa, and Shin gathered together and watched as the shadows surrounded them in anger. 

Ryo, Heero, Shu, Seiji, Wufei, and Quatre all appeared on the hill overlooking the clearing that the remaining Gundams were.  They looked in shock as they saw a surrounded Duo, Trowa, and Shin face off with the shadows.  But what had them shocked was the fact that Duo and Trowa now wore yoroi that was like Quatre’s and Wufei’s. 

As they watched, Duo brought his scythe up and circled it once around his head.  He then circled it around his body, leaving a green glowing circle in its wake as he called out loudly, “Takai...Gai...Nami!!!”  At the last word, he slammed down his scythe and the circle flew out, destroying every shadow in its path. 

The shadows shrieked in anger, but the new warriors weren’t done yet.  Trowa brought his two short swords up and crossed them over his waist.  They glowed brightly silver and he brought them up crossed before his chest, while crying out, “Hoshi...Hitoame...Dageki!!” With the last word, he brought them up and uncrossed them swiftly, flinging stars at the shadows and destroying them in glowing lights.  Soon, after their attacks were done, there were no more shadows to be seen. 

The other warriors came down to them and congratulated and asked them if they were all right.  All three warriors nodded in assurance and they headed back for Nasuti’s place, grateful for their safety and happy to have a good victory at last.

* Notes

Nari- a staff with three sharp prongs at the end much like a trident. It can clamp onto an enemy and slash at them in this manner.
