Takeo - Hello, and welcome to a new AU series ^^
WuFei - The title, will be discussed a few lines down.
Takeo - This fic is in honour of the great Hilda (of Outlaw Star) as well as the creepy little evil girl, whose name I never learnt. Their deaths, however cool were unjust and I'm paying tribute to them through this fic.
Zechs - In other words, Takeo really likes Outlaw Star.
Takeo - I wish Jim and Jean could get together. Yesterday's episode was so filled with close contact between these two *Takeo goes all starry eyed. Gets smacked on the head by Duo*
Duo - Stick to the point.
Takeo - ^^;; right. Anyway, there's yaoi, lime and just about anything that you might expect in AU fics. ^^ The title of this is " Geyon Hunter" done with Outlaw Star and Silver Hawks kind of universe. I bid you good reading and comments are much appreciated. If you want this fic to continue, I'll happily do my best ^^ Pairings, I'll make them official as they appear ^^
Prologue
Outlaws?! What the hell is that?
This is a complete narration that is important to the storyline but no action (^^;;) Anyway, there are four kinds of people that live in space, apart from regular people that is ^^;; the fic starts with this ~*~
- Plunders : These people are known as the people who have sticks up their asses since they have the best machinery in space get very testy if you even *dent* their ships. They have huge ships called "Fortresses" and Plunders tend to compete against one another to find legendary booty...err…I mean treasures said to be hidden in space or on other planets that the Earth colonized eons ago. Many Plunder clans are descendants from ancient clans from different species, planets, etcetera.
- Outlaws : They live their life on their own, and they don't break any rules unless they have to. Outlaws are sometimes hunted by Plunders because they somehow get to the treasure before the Plunders usually do, so they are at constant battle. The more powerful an outlaw crew is, the more success they have at beating the Plunders. This is very rare, so some outlaws tend to bond with other outlaw crews if they wish to take down a Plunder Fortress, but anyway, that's rare too. Outlaws also have the same history in terms of their heritage. Outlaws and Plunders alike are prime targets for the 3rd group, the Dragon Hunters.
- Dragon Hunters AKA the DH : They are the *real* bad ass of the group. No one really knows where many Dragon Hunters originate from, and it's always in your best interest to learn about them, especially if there's a DH after your ass for whatever damned reason you can think of. The best DH's don't kill for fun, some do, but they're a different case. For Dragon Hunters, it's all about the money, ('cause hey, they got to live well you know?) and the thrill of the hunt. Anyway, Dragon Hunters can do jobs for anyone for the right price and they don't come cheap. Plunders sometimes hire Dragon Hunters to take out Outlaws who are encroaching on their territory. Sometimes, when DragonHunters are asked to do jobs for either Outlaws or Plunders, they may refuse to for their own personal reasons. This stirs up a lot of trouble because Plunders and Outlaws sometimes break the law in order to attain a DH's services which can lead to disastrous consequences, and then , the Allianoz steps in ^^
- Allianoz : The law enforcers in space. They sometimes can get a job done if they have a good officer with them. Once again, they tend to be ineffective and they can't build really good ships which they call 'Cruisers'. Anyway, you have to give them credit because they can nab some really crazy Outlaws and Plunders alike and on very rare occasions, a DH.

Zechs Marquise tossed platinum blond locks over his shoulder as he watched the repairmen fix his ship Geyon(1) It had almost been totaled after his last fight with the Sapphire Clan(2). His crew had been on the trail of a legendary ghost ship, a ship rumored to appear once every century near a blackhole. One would either be stupid or clever to attempt this mission because the legend was a myth, but even myths have some truth to them. Upon finding this legendary ghost ship, appropriately named 'Tenkuu'(3), hacking into the onboard computer system would allow access to maps that showed the perils and exact location of the great treasure, the Halo of Son Goku(4), an ancient space outlaw that struck terror without even a ship! Needless to say, not many knew of the exact power of Son Goku's Halo but many where willing to die for it. And it was for this treasure that Zechs Marquise, captain of the Geyon would risk his crew of one Heero Yuy and another Quatre R.Winner in the quest for ultimate glory in the eyes of heroes and people everywhere.
"Hey Zechs! The repairs are almost done. We have a bill of 2,000 credits." Quatre shouted from his post as he sprang off the ship, the zero gravity allowing him to do so. Ice blue eyes regarded the short haired blond as he landed by his side, pushing his goggles into his hair.
"Then we'll depart as soon as I get the word on the street." Zechs replied as he tucked his hands in his coat.
"You mean that those Sapphires didn't follow us here? Fat chance, since we’ve got a copy of their map." Heero piped up as he paid off the repair crew that had remained silent as the conversation began. Quatre shook his head softly, turquoise eyes lowered for a moment.
"Don't worry guys. We'll just spend the night here and see what Dawn78 has to offer. It's a small asteroid guys. Not too many Plunder Fortresses can dock here." Zechs assured Quatre, patting the blonde's back.
"For our sakes, I hope so, let's head in then." Heero said as he picked up his blue jacket and slung it over his shoulders.
"Nite Geyon, we'll be back soon." Quatre called to the ship as the three youths left the hangar.
"Good night Quatre." Geyon replied, the ship shutting all its engines down. If it were possible for the ship to sigh in relief, it would have.
In a darker corner of space, sapphire blue eyes stared into a wine glass. Long elegant hands cupped the glass, and eyes watched the blood red wine swirl around, making small waves.
"Captain Treize, the repairs to Yonrose(5) will soon be completed." A young man said as he bowed, brown hair covering an emerald eyes that seemed to shine a bit unnaturally in the red lighting.
"Very well Trowa. Geyon got away?" Treize asked.
"Yes, their damage was a lot less than ours. Tracking them down might require magic sir." Trowa said, cautiously taking a step back from Treize's seat. The wine glass shattered, glass cutting into the large hand, the pain obviously unfelt by the holder.
"So be it." Treize said silently as he rose from his seat, his robes sweeping underneath him. Trowa bowed and left the captain's presence. Treize stood for a moment, considering why an outlaw vessel would *dare* to go against his clan and fortress. And the fact that that damned ship and crew were young boiled the older man's blood. He had lived a thousand years and *no* outlaw had dared to cross his path.
"Stop it Treize or you'll give yourself a heart attack." A woman's voice spoke from behind him. Treize whirled around and dropped to his knees, paying respect to his commander. Pale blond hair swept past the woman's back as she walked down the steps, her sea blue eyes focused on her friend.
"Queen Relena, you have come to take control of our clan? It is truly an honour." Treize said as he lifted himself back to his standing position. Relena laughed.
"You need my magic, and I will help, and the prize is the Halo of Son Goku, one of the most precious of the universe's treasures. I am here to help, as well as my lover, if that will not disturb you." Relena said as she waved her hands. A portal opened and a woman dressed in a red cloak stepped through. She had blue hair, some of it partially obscuring her blue eyes and her face.
"My assistance my Queen?" the woman asked as she kissed Relena's hand.
"Of course dear Noin. We shall assist Treize from behind the shadows, come now, we shall take our leave, goodnight honourable Treize." Relena said as she and Noin departed from his presence. Treize smiled.
"Thank you my Queen." Treize called back. Relena stopped and turned her head.
"First course of action, deal with the captain of that ship. A Dragon Hunter would be sufficient ne?" Relena asked, a curious look in her eyes, awaiting Treize's decision. Even if she was the leader of the Sapphire Clan, she felt that interfering with Treize's thinking would not be in her best interest.
"But highness, our clan has a very bad reputation among the Dragon Hunters." Treize replied in surprise.
"A century is a long time Treize-san. Maybe it won't be so bad. I can kill the DH later is necessary." Relena said as she walked on and soon disappeared into the dark. Treize sat in his chair, wondering where he would *find* a DH. A Dragon Hunter? Which one?
"Perhaps the one they call Fei. I hear that he's very good." Trowa spoke up, standing from his hiding place. Something about their leader Relena made him uneasy.
"Perhaps, perhaps." Treize said as he stroked his chin."
