Gundam Pirates Part 10
Miima glared at the screen trying to put a hole in the damn thing. Fightra's glare was much worse. Of course she also extended her claws through her own screen. And then she threw it across the room. They both hate the orders that they had just gotten.
Miima shook her head. These orders made no sense. It wasn't Firemind to do something like this.
"I don't get it." She said softly.
Fightra started pacing. "How the hell should I know?" She growled. "This is insane! We can't leave them like this. They aren't ready."
"Bet it's one of her parents that have ordered this."
Fightra's eyes narrowed. "Why the hell would they do that? They are the one's that sent us here!"
"Then how the hell else do you explain the freakin' orders?"
"How the fuck should I know!!" Fightra hissed and grabbed her right wrist. Searing white-hot pain laced through it. She brought it up to hold protectively against her chest and sank to the floor. Her protector insignia showed on her hand. Bits of flames from the tips of her fingers to mid arm. Merely showing them she could wield a fiery shield. But for them to glow was a sign of her god. The pain left and Fightra sat gasping. "Okay... we...go."
"Told you it was them." Miima muttered.
"I heard that you lousy third classer."
"So do we tell anyone we're leaving?" Miima began picking things up to pack.
Fightra winced. "No."
Miima raised an eyebrow. "No?"
"No, as in we tell nobody because I don't feel like having red hot burning pain lace through my goddamn hand, okay with you?"
Miima merely nodded and went back to work. "It shouldn't take us too long to pack things up. Most everything disintegrates when we leave. We can be gone in two hours."
"Sounds good. I'll go take care of my office. What about the telepaths? I'm sure Dorothy and Relena will be able to pick up on us moving."
"Not a problem. I'm blocking all scans of both of us. The girls are deep asleep and won't wake until morning."
"What about yours?"
"Blocked as well."
Less than two hours later the HMA Destiny shuttle was being prepped for launch. Fightra sat in the navigator seat running the flight plan through. Miima was outside loading the shuttle. Engines were warming up and the docking bay had been emptied. The two worked in silence.
Miima walked into the shuttle. "Everything loaded in the back. What we're leaving behind is all ready disintegrating. How's everything on your end?"
"We're ready to leave. Flight plan is loaded and engines are warmed and ready. Life support is green, as is gravity and computer control. AI program is running at 100%. Defensive and offensive weapons are online. Shields are at 100% as well."
"Food stores are stocked as are the emergency medical kits. I'd say we're ready to go."
"Yeah. Seal the doors and let's get out of here."

Heero tightened his grip around Duo. The two were asleep in the team's room. Duo just snuggled back into Heero's arms. Trowa and Quatre lay sprawled out on Trowa's bed. Quatre was half off the bed with his head pillowed on Trowa's stomach. Wufei was in his own bed. It was peaceful.
Then everything shook. Duo and Quatre fell out of their beds. Wufei barely kept on his own. Dust and parts of the ceiling fell down around them. Things had fallen from shelves and off their desks. The room shook again with the sound of boom echoing. They all looked at each other.
"What the hell is going on?" Wufei stood and started dressing.
"I don't know. I can't find Miss Miima." Quatre stood with the help of Trowa pulling him.
"Then try someone else."
Quatre nodded and soon he gasped. "We're being fired on by an unknown ship!"
"Then where is that onna who's training us?" Wufei growled.
"Is that smoke I smell?" Duo sniffed the air again.
"Come on the station commander has ordered an evacuation. We need to get to a ship." Said Quatre and started for the door with Trowa right behind him.
"Shouldn't we help other people?" Everyone looked at Duo. "I mean that is why we were trained is it not? We should help the innocent get to ships and then worry about ourselves."
Everyone nodded and headed out the door. Alarms were going off everywhere. A haze had settled in the halls. They went from door to door looking for people. Heero and Wufei broke doors down. Quatre scanned each room. And Trowa retrieved the survivors.
Duo counted how many people they had. "Guys I'm gonna take these people to a ship and then meet back up with you."
"How the hell are you going to find us again?" Wufei asked.
"Heero."
"Huh?"
"I'll find you by way of Heero. I always know where he is. Or smell."
"I can guide him back with my telepathy. Duo's right we need to get them to a ship."
"I'll take them!" The boys turned to the new voice. It was a woman they didn't know. She had short dark hair falling over part of her face. "My name is Noin. I'm in charge of security on the Peacemillion. I'll take them to the bay. Most of the station has been evacuated. There's only the Med-bay rooms to search."
Wufei's eyes widen. Erial stayed in the Med-bay rooms. In fact she should be the only one. "Let's go we need to hurry."
The boys ran down the halls, Wufei leading the way until he stopped dead in his tracks. The others skidded to a halt and looked to where Wufei's eyes were glued. The hallway looked like a war zone. The ceiling had caved in and debris was everywhere. There were a few bodies with spikes driven through them. Some looked burned. They continued ahead slowly.
"Erial!" Wufei yelled. Her room was just ahead. Hopeful she wouldn't be too scared to yell back. Not that her voice could get that loud. "ERIAL!!"
Quatre felt it. A feeling of relief and hopefulness. He searched out with his mind to find the person. The thought running through their head was 'Wukay'. Quatre sent out a calming feeling to the person.
"Someone's is down the hall." He pointed to their left.
They ran down the hallway and took a turn and stopped dead in their tracks. Wufei, who was out in front, noticed the girl sitting on the floor was a slender girl. Long brown hair falling out of a ponytail. She had fallen and was shaking trying to crawl backwards away from something the boys couldn't see.
Wufei took a step forward. "Erial!" And then he stopped.
Coming around the corner were several rather dangerous looking creatures. Dark red eyes peered out from under heavy eyebrows. Dark red hair hung down on around their heads like spurts of blood was either hanging greasy around their heads or pulled back high on their heads. Thick necks became huge wide shoulders and bulking arms. Their legs jutted forward and they walked strangely. They were all dressed in what looked like armor that covered their bodies. They stopped to look at the boys.
One of them stepped towards Erial and she whimpered in fear. Wufei's eyes narrowed he felt the familiar warmth in his hands. He raised his right hand and took aim at the creature heading for Erial. The stream of fire rushed by Erial and hit the creature causing it to cry out in pain as the fire spread across its body. Its companions drew their weapons that looked like rifles and some had smaller pistil like gun. They fired blaster beams at the boys.
Wufei rushed forward to Erial's side. Sending fireball after fireball at the unknown creatures. Heero and Duo jumped out of the way and looked to see Trowa pull Quatre out of the way. They then looked at Wufei who was in the middle of the fight. Heero touched Duo's skin and changed and both he and Duo rushed forward to help. Trowa followed easily stepping out of the way of shots fired at them. Quatre placed a telekinetic shield around Erial to keep her safe.
Trowa and Wufei reached Erial at the same time. Wufei quickly looked her over for damage. She was scratched up and was bleeding in some places. He became angry at the sight of her wounds. He looked at her face and saw even more scratches and tears falling from her eyes. He wiped some away.
"It's all right we'll get you out of here. I promise." Wufei told her. Her eyes looked over his shoulder and widened. He looked back and saw one of the creatures take aim at him and fire. The shot was deflected off of a shield that was around them.
Wufei turned back around as he felt a hand on his shoulder. Trowa was crouched down next to him. Trowa pointed back to Quatre. Wufei nodded his thanks. Trowa put a hand on Erial's arm and helped her up. She winced in pain.
"She's hurt, we'll have to carry her out." Wufei said as he looked at her ankle.
Trowa nodded and picked her up into his arms. He then turned to head back to Quatre. Erial's eyes were wide as she watched Wufei. Trowa easily stepped out of the way of the shots fired at him. Wufei turned and shot back at the enemy while slowly backing away from them. Heero and Duo noticed and after slashing through some of the creature's armors with their claws they started back too.
They regrouped and Wufei looked to the ceiling and took aim. He felt a hand on his arm and looked to see Heero was touching him absorbing his power. Then Heero aimed too. They both let loose a stream of fire bring down the ceiling on the enemy. They turned and headed for the docking bays. Trowa stepped to the left quickly and nudged Quatre out of the way just as a shot was fired past them.
"Oh hell!" Duo yelled out. "They're following us!" He glanced back to see six of the creatures following them.
"Just keep going!" Quatre said.
"Who are they?" Wufei growled throwing a fireball behind them.
"I'm not too sure." Quatre answered round a corner. "They're just following their gods' orders."
"Huh?" Duo pulled Heero closer to him so Heero could avoid being shot.
"That's all I get. I'm sorry."
"Don't worry about it."
"Wukay they look for tank boy. I heard them." Erial said still in Trowa's arms.
Wufei glanced at her. "Tank boy?"
"You think they mean Heero?" Duo asked. He then ducked and hissed as a shot barely missed the top of his head. "I mean he was in a tank."
"Maybe." Wufei said. "Heero join up with me. Let's bring the ceiling down again." Both of them look aim and fired, bringing rumble down on the enemy.
"Why are we running by the way?" Duo asked as they started to run down the halls again.
"Because we have an innocent with us!" Wufei growled.
"I no innocent!" Erial snapped back.
"You are too! I will not have you hurt more."
"I take care of me!"
"Erial please! Just let us get you out of here and off the station."
Erial glared at him. "I no weak." She mumbled, but only Trowa heard her.
They skidded through the doors to the docking bay and saw only one ship. It was big and white and was getting ready to leave. Heero turned and locked the door and then slammed his fist through the controls. Duo stared at his now bleeding hand in horror. Heero grabbed his arm and dragged him after the others heading for the ship. With any luck they could make it onto the ship.
Standing in a doorway was the woman they had met earlier, Noin. "Come on, the Captain is about to take off! Can you guys jump up here?" It was a good five-foot jump.
Trowa, holding Erial, easily jumped up and handed her off to Noin and then jumped down to Quatre. Heero and Duo each took one of Wufei's arms and jumped up. Followed by Trowa and Quatre.
"Er... I guess you can." Noin turned to a unit on the wall. "This is Noin. Sir all are aboard."
"Understood, take then to the med-lap and then bring them to the command-center."
"Yes sir." Noin turned to them. "Come on let's get you checked out."
"We're fine." Duo said.
"The captain said to take you to the med-lap and that is where I'm taking you. So come on we don't have all day." Noin turned on her heal and walked off.
"Give her here." Wufei stood in front of Trowa. Trowa handed Erial off to him.
"I fine." She said.
"Of course you. That's why you're bleeding and can't walk with out pain." Wufei followed Noin down the hallway. The other four boys followed behind him.
Quatre ran ahead and to talk with Noin. "What is this ship?"
"It's the Peacemillion. Captained by Treize Kushrenda. The ship is to service you and the girls that have been trained to save us." Noin answered calmly.
"What?" Quatre blinked.
"Miss Miima managed to have everything set up about a month ago. I didn't think it would be possible to put together a crew and be ready."
"Do you know where Miss Miima is?"
"No but maybe the captain knows. You can ask him when we get to the command-center." Noin stepped into an elevator. "For now we see the doctor."
The ship seemed to lurch forward as it began to move. Everyone braced themselves against the wall. Duo and Trowa helped Wufei to steady himself. The ship shuddered lights flickered and the lift stopped.
In the engine room Howard was cursing and yelling at his team. The ship and had never really flown before. But Frankenstein had assured Howard it would fly. He said to just give the ship a few minutes to adjust itself and everything would be fine. The problem was they didn't have a few minutes. They unknown enemy was coming through doors and their ships were outside the station firing weapons and the station was falling down around them.
Lights finally came back on, the power was restored to the lift and other stations on the ship. The five boys looked at one another. Finally giving one more lurch forward the Peacemillion left the docking bay of the station and flew by two enemy ships.
Doctor Po looked up as the doors opened to the med-lap. Noin walked in with five boys and one girl. "Who's hurt who's not?" She asked rushing over them.
"Just her." Duo said.
"The captain asked me to bring them to you." Noin stated.
"That's nice. Place her on the table and I'll look at the rest of you when we're safe and not in the middle of a fight."
Noin sighed. "Fine come with me."
"Wukay?" Erial called out after him.
"You'll be safe here. I'm come check on you later." Wufei turned and left.
