Herum hacked restlessly through the files of Dragon Force, looking for data he didn't know yet when a girl floated down the corridor and flopped down in the seat next to him. Herum shuts his lab top and looks at her. This girl, no older than seventeen, has been elected to lead most of Dragon Forces troops into battle along side himself. Her silver blue, spaghetti strap, tank floated aimlessly in the weightless atmosphere of the shuttle. Her neon red hair glistened with shimmering beads made from jewels such as rubies and emeralds. Her pale blue eyes reflected her sweet personality as she smiled at him.
"Good day friend Herum. Is everything well?"
Herum casts a small grin in her direction.
"Of course it is. Why wouldn't it be?"
"I don't know. Maybe for some odd reason. Zechs has given me and you code names."
"Really? What for?"
"He thinks our names'll stick out to much. Your nickname is Sir Death Star and mine is Lady Dragon."
"I like yours better."
"I like mine better too."
"That makes me feel so much better."
Lady Dragon chuckles at this.

"Hey, Heero. Where'd you get all this information?"
"Uh.... a friend."
Heero remembered his mysterious visitor last night and decided not to talk about it. As he leaves the others rooms he gets a stronger feeling that they should be in space by now.  Qautre and Trowa admitted the same feelings. As Heero walks towards his room he stops by Ottern's office and tells him that they'll be leaving first thing in the morning. Heero tells the others of his decision and nobody objects.  That night, Heero has that dream again...
"Who are we going after sir?" Wonders his third as the three of them pilot their Gundams towards a rebel army site. He sees the many controls of the Epyon mobile suit around him.

"We're going after Wufei Chang." he replies.
"Right." says his second and third.

As they approach the rebel China base , they get a clear view of Altron, Wufei's Gundam.
"Open fire!" He orders. The others obey and attack the base. Wufei puts up quite a battle but is no match for the three Gundams combined power. His second opens the cockpit and pulls out Wufei violently.
Back on the bridge of battleship Dracon, Wufei is literally cussing out the commander.
"It won't do you any good to cuss at me." the commander gets up and walks over to Wufei.
"This is the only way, Wufei." he whispers. "This is the only way to accomplish our mission."
The commander tells the crew that all should leave except his second, third, and the prisoners. His second walks over to a panel and deactivates all cameras and speakers on Dracon by emitting a low frequency block.
"Ok, Heero. Tell us what your trying to do."
Heero looks at his second and third and they grin at Wufei and Trowa. He then looks back to them.
"I'm destroying Dragon Force, for good."
The two look up at Heero and he's wearing one of his devilish grins. Heero then signals to his two friends, Duo and Qautre, to help him. Duo grabs Trowa's collar and Qautre does the same to Wufei.
"H... hey! What are you doing Heero?!" demands Wufei.
"The only thing that we can do. I'm sorry my friends."
Qautre hesitates and looks at Heero who sighs and takes over the bloody task himself.  Before they start, Qautre turns off the block and all communications and cameras are online once again. Heero looks at Duo and nods, Duo takes the first swing... Heero awakens and heads towards the bathroom mumbling to himself.
"Those dreams.... Maybe that's what we need to do to destroy Dragon Force."
Heero walks into the bathroom and takes a quick shower and heads to the virtual training room. He looks at his wristwatch and sees that he has a whole hour before even four o'clock comes. As he enters the training room, he finds a note on the seat of the training cockpit.  Heero picks it up as he sits in the pilot seat.

Heero,
Look out. Dragon Force isn't focusing on Earth at all. They're targeting all who oppose their rule. I'm on battleship Dracon now and awaiting your arrival here at two in the after noon.  Your shuttle leaves at six in the morning so be prepared.
Herum

Five tickets fall out of the letter. Heero stashes them in his pocket and starts the trainer. "Level fifty six, beaten."
Heero deactivates the trainer, he looks real worn out.
"Fastest reaction time yet, I'm getting better."
Heero walks to Duo's room and knocks. He doesn't hear an answer so he enters anyway.  Duo's sound asleep, his baggage laying at the foot of his bed. Heero takes these and places them in the submarine they'll be using for transport. He does the same with the others luggage. After loading everyone's baggage, it was time to load the pilots. He tries to wake Duo but is unsuccessful so he drapes him over his shoulder and carries him around telling the other pilots to be at the submarine at five thirty. The Gundams are just being loaded as the three other pilots arrive and load into the sub. Wufei gets the job of sitting next to the slumbering Duo. When the Gundams finish loading, Heero says his farewells and the pilots are off for space.

"Kasama! Why do I have to sit with this slob?!" complains Wufei.
"Oh c'mon Wufei.... you can live with me sleeping here can't you?" mumbles a very sleepy Duo. Duo drifts back to sleep as Wufei complains some more. Qautre and Trowa chat thewhole way while Heero sits alone and thinks of his dreams and tries to put them together.
"Passengers, please fasten your seat belts and prepare for landing."
"Hey, Heero. Where are we headed anyway?" wonders Duo. Heero pulls the long haired pilot into the seat next to him and begins explaining.
"Duo, I have a plan to stop Dragon Force once and for all." Heero whispers.
"So what is this plan?" whispers Duo back.
"I'm going to join Dragon Force and assassinate Zechs. You will join me as my second. You mustn't tell any of the others about this, ok?"
"Right."
"What are you two mumbling about back there?" asks Wufei looking behind him at the two pilots.
"Nothin' Wu-chan."
"Baka." Wufei turns back to face the front of the shuttle as it lands.
After they land, the three other pilots realize where they are.
"Heero! Why'd you bring us here?!" yells Wufei walking towards the two pilots quickly. Heero looks at Duo and he nods. They both pull out their hand guns and point them at Wufei.
"Stop right there, buddy." Wufei stops, his eyes wide with surprise then they narrow in anger.
"Nope, don't think so..." Wufei turns to the others and nods. All three scatter as a smoke bomb goes off leaving Duo and Heero in blackness.
"Should we go after 'em?" asks Duo quietly.
"No. Everything's going as planned." Duo nods and runs towards the door leading to dracon followed by Heero. They enter the hall and close the door just as the shuttle takes off, accidentally leaving Wing Zero and Death Scythe Hell behind.
"CRAP!!!!!" yells Wufei. "We left Wing Zero and Death Scythe Hell behind!!!!"
"Never mind. We can't go back there."
"I told you guys they were planning something."
"Yeah but why would they form a plan on the shuttle and not at the underwater base?"
"Don't know. Heero's pretty slick."
"Yeah..."

<><><><><><>

Heero, accompanied by Duo, walks towards the bridge of battleship Dracon and, for once in his life, Duo is silent. As the two enter Zechs stands and welcomes them.
"Heero. What a pleasant surprise. Have you changed your mind?" Heero hesitates.

"...Yes."

"I'm glad you've come to your senses. Who is this guy." wonders Zechs turning his glance to Duo.  "This is..."

"My name is Duo Maxwell. I'm a fellow Gundam pilot and I also wish to join your cause."
Heero almost looks shocked at Duo's words. He thought that Duo was nothing more than a goofy slob who couldn't wake up in the mornings, he was wrong.
"Welcome Duo. We're going to need as many allies as possible and we thank you for your cooperation." Duo nods.
"Lady Dragon, escort these gentlemen to their new quarters." A young girl steps in front of the two pilots and grins at them.
"Follow me." She says in a sweet voice. The pilots follow her and enter they're new home.  It's not a very small room. It has two beds two desks and two bathrooms that can be separated if need be by a large, metal door. Lady Dragon leaves the two with two uniforms. A high ranking officer and his second's uniforms are very much alike but Duo still wants the better one as always.
"Man! Why do you have to get the cool outfit?"
"Never mind that and get dressed. We have a plan to commence."
"Ok, fine" Duo and Heero get dressed in their uniforms and Heero hands Duo a seconds hat.
"Nope, not gonna wear a dumb hat like that." Before Duo can react, Heero slips the hat on his head tightly.
"You better leave it there, too." says Heero putting his hat on also.
"all right, have it your way."
Heero tells Duo to enter and distract Zechs while Heero places a mini bomb inside Zechs shirt. Duo nods and heads towards the bridge with Heero close behind. Heero also tells Duo to only distract him with rebel reports and such and also that when Zechs is gone Heero will be commander of the ship. As Duo enters, nobody even notices. Duo steps in front of commander Milyardo and bows before beginning on a statistics readout that Zechs had assigned him earlier. While Zechs is distracted Heero plants the bomb without Zechs knowing and leaves the bridge. Duo finishes and follows Heero's example.

Later the two meet in their rooms as a red alert sounds and they leap to their feet.
"He's dead." announces Heero triumphantly.

The two rush to the bridge to see the almost neck less Milyardo Peacecraft. The two act shocked as they proceed to Zechs and Duo has a hard time holding in his lunch. Herum looks at the two and stands.
"Heero, You're now the commander of Dragon Force. Your orders?" Heero hesitates before answering.
"Arrange for a funeral ship and move towards the closest colony."
"Yes sir!"
Heero looks at Duo and barely holds back a slight chuckle. Duo's hand is cupped over his mouth and one eye is closed in concentration. Heero leads Duo off the bridge and to a bathroom. As Heero waits for Duo he now realizes his dreams ARE coming true after all.
