Disclaimer: I only own my uniqueness

Kitty's Thoughts: ... Onegai....... please bear with, it's 3:56 am on this dank, dark, and filthy Wednesday "morning"...... don't know why I'm up but maybe something productive *for one* will pop up! Not much thought's going to be put into this, but enjoy anyway, I've not written a humor fic yet... although, lol, it might be something under something else! ^_^

Two Sides of Fate

A Gundam Wing Fanfiction

Part 1: Statements and Setups

She could barely be detected as her figure scaled the walls of the dormitory building, clothed in the darkest of black with only her determined sea-blue eyes and a few wisps of golden-honey tresses escaping her 'hunting mask'. A mischievous gleam seemed to shine in the darkness as he pulled herself up onto a window ledge, taking care to be as silent as she possibly could. Peering through the window, Relena licked her lips in anticipation of the events about to be unfolded.

Soon, sweet soldier... you will be mine yet......

She smiled, pushing aside a honey strand as she deftly pried the window open. Swinging her feet inside she landed quietly in a crouching position. As she straightened her frame she also lowered her mask, letting her eyes adjust to the dimly-lit room. Her eyes surveyed the darkness, noting two empty beds, a lamp stand on which sat a digital clock, and doors lay to her right -- one being a closet, the other a bathroom door. Straight ahead of her stood a door which lead her to the hallway, and next to the window was a desk, free from clutter. She memorized every bit of the room, noting that one bed was messily made, while the other looked as if it had never been slept in.

Duo must be boarding with him..... explains the mess on the floor.......

The girl had begun to walk forward until she almost tripped over a pack of hair bands pilot 02 used to tie back his long chestnut braid. Among the package of hair accessories were a diskman, a few scattered CD's, a hairbrush, some chewing gum, a bouncing ball of sorts, and a toothbrush. Relena wrinkled her nose as she noticed the last embedded in what looked to be a dirt-soiled sock.

..... He needs a maid............ she thought distastefully, distangling her foot from the mess. She strode, full of purpose, over to the immaculate bed, scrounging up an image of the eerily and usually stoic soldier. A small smile played on her lips as she imagined him sleeping peacefully on that same bed she was staring at. She considered sitting down on his bed when she blinked her eyes. A feather-light sound was coming from the hallway. She froze.

Foosteps? Catching her breath, Relena listened as a scuffle passed, followed by a loud 'crash' and dull 'thud'.

"Oy, Heero!! Watch the braid!" A familiar 'hn' followed. "Wha -- are you still mad at me?" Brief silence. "I thought it was pretty cool - betcha thought *you* were the only one who was any good at computer hacking!"

"You shouldn't have programmed my mobile suit to say such... things." A chuckle was heard as well as the sound of someone slapping another's back.

"C'mon, it even made *Trowa* laugh!"

"Duo, having Wing Zero say, 'I am a tree, I am a tree!' every time I raise my beam saber, is *NOT* funny." A loud TWACK was heard, along with a small whimper. "Sheesh Herro..... that hurt."

Relena was lost in the humor she found in the story until she realized where she was. Oh my god, HEEEE~ROO!! (yanno, kinda like in the episode where Heero was falling from the hospital building and Relena and Sally Po were looking down... ) Quickly snapping out of her dreamy trance Relena scrambled to hide herself, tripping over a fuzzy hairbrush. The sound of footsteps began to bounce off the hallway just outside of the dorm room as she frantically looked around from her view on the cluttered floor. Leaping up she nearly fell again when she heard the sound of a key being inserted into the lock. Sweatdrops were beginning to form on her head when she saw two doors in front of her.

Make a choice make a choice make a choice which door....

With one quick glance at the entrance door she bolted for the door on the right, shutting it close behind her. Too bad the Vice Foreign Minister was used to being in spacious closets, for her features collided with that of the interior wall.

Just as one door closed, did another open.

For a moment, all was silent. Relena held her breath, hoping the pair would leave quickly.

"Duo.... did you hear...... something?" The sound of a safety seemed to echo in Relena's ears. She winced.

"Ite.............. I'm not sure. I thought I heard *something* -- but then again, I *did* just get my head smacked by the world's-most-perfect-soldier's *GUN*." Before Duo could resume his whining Heero silenced him.

"Quiet." A pair of footsteps could be heard, pacing around the small room. Relena could just imagine her Perfect Soldier sweeping the small room from top to bottom, making sure not to leave a thing unturned.

Oh no if my Heero finds me here..... Shrinking back into a corner, Relena began to pray.

And suddenly, she saw a ray of light........ creeping underneath the closet door. Her eyes widened in horror as she saw the doorknob begin to twist. Just as she thought her presence would be found, the braided pilot called, "Oy, Heero!" She heard a shuffle.

"Hn."

"There's a message for you on the laptop." With a soft groan, footsteps could be heard retreating to the opposite side of the room, away from Relena's current position. A wave of relief washed over her. She managed to slowly loosen her tightly-coiled muscles.

"What is it?" Duo asked. A repetitive 'thud' could be heard, along with the loud smacking of chewing gum.

"Stop bouncing that ball." The noise stopped briefly then resumed a moment later. "Duo.... " There was a different sound this time, the sound of a faint trigger. Heero allowed a bit of his manical laughter to resonate off the walls, then turned back to his beloved laptop.

"Kuso Heero........ that was my last one! And when did you get a new silencer?!" A scuffle was heard, followed by a loud 'thud' and soon after a protest of pain. "Damn bed, doesn't hafta be so damn hard when I kick it.... should get better shoes............. but I've not cash.... eh, I'll just swipe 'em!" Relena strained to hear Heero's response but none came.

"So, are you gonna tell me what the message is or am I gonna hafta 'reprogram' Wing Zero... again?"

"Hn...." Another silence, then a *real* response. "We're not to hear from the scientists for a few weeks... " Relena could hear the sound of the laptop being shut down and closed.

"Woo hoo, they're givin' us a vacation!" Duo grinned with delight, his voice betraying his forgiveness of the deflated bouncing ball and a stubbed toe. "So..... " An evil smirk plastered his features just when Relena decided to open the door just wide enough for her to see the two figures. "How are you planning on spending your off-time?" There was a brief pause before he added, "Or maybe I should ask with whom?" Relena waited breathlessly for the Perfect Soldier's response, but nothing more than the usual 'hn' was heard. "So, you *don't* deny it!"

"No, I don't Duo -- I still have a mission to complete." Relena's eyebrows drew together, frowning.

"Wha, don't tell me you're *still* -- " Relena noticed Deathscythe's pilot roll his violet eyes in irritation and disbelief. " -- planning on carrying out this 'Omae o korosu' mission!"

"I have no room for failure in my missions -- you told me that yourself once."

"Yeah but c'mon Heero -- she's the Queen of the World, a *Peacecraft* for Shinigami's sake!" The braided figure threw his hands out in gesture. "Surely -- "

"Duo, I have accepted my mission and *no one* will keep me from completing it." Heero turned his back to Duo.

"Then... why haven't you?" Suddenly Duo found himself looking down the wrong end of a barrel.

"I *will* complete my mission, make no mistake about that." Duo blinked, then shrugged his shoulders, raising a hand to push away the gun.

"Eh, whatever you say Heero, I'm famished!" As if on cue Relena heard a low growl. "Let's get some burgers' or something." The braided pilot strode over to the door as his comrade followed in suit. Duo looked over his shoulder, a look of amusement crossing over his features.

"Wha, the Perfect Soldier *actually* has to *eat*??" As Heero passed the grinning boy, but not before punching him in the gut.

"Ite... Heero............. at least I don't have anything to vomit but my own acid... " The door closed, and slowly the footsteps began to soften. Relena waited a few minutes, assuring herself that the pair had indeed left the hall.

So.... you have a mission to complete.... well, koishii, I have an agenda of my own.... A devious smirk curved on her lips as she quickly set her plan into motion.....
