Disclaimer: I don't own GUNDAM WING, but if someone would like to give it to me, I'll take Heero and Duo, if you don't mind.

Ha! Another ficcie written with ANOTHER one of my songs! PLEEEASE R&R! My reviewers are one of the things that inspire me to WRITE MORE! AND EVERYONE LIKES MORE!! (especially more ficcies by ME!)

He could hear the Gundams coming to life, one at a time, echoing forever in his mind. How should he know that this might be the last time he heard any of them? It very well could be, and he knew the question crossed all of their minds, each and every time they climbed into the cockpit.

He did a routine systems check. Everything was the way it should be. He knew that the others were going through the same procedure as well: is this running? Does that work? Can I rely on this if that doesn't work?

Checking backups was key. Because the pilots required on a split-second reaction time, and if what they needed didn't work...

They might not come back alive. He flicked on the comm system. "Check," he said.

"Check one," came the first reply.

"Check two."

"Check three."

"Check four."

The Gundams emerged from the hangar. He could hear the fear hinting in their voices as they volleyed through the comm system. It was there, deep down within even the most monotone.

"Hey, these guys are going down!"

"Yee-haw! They don't call me the God of Death for nothing!"

"Shut up, Maxwell."

"Lighten up, Heero."

"Shut up, Loser."

"It's Winner."

"Loser."

"Grr..."

"Aw, come on! We're gonna kick some butt!"

"Shut up, Barton."

"Heero, Heero, Heero."

"Shut up, Wufei."

And with that, Wing Zero soared off into the sky with the others. Heero Yuy knew that they all were fearless.
