Duo sighed and ran his hands through his bangs. "Do we really have to do this?!" He whined, waving his arms around frantically, a rake in hand.

"Yes, Maxwell. We can't just leave the leaves all over the ground!" Wufei shouted for the umpteenth time.

"They're leaves, Wuffles! The ground is where they belong!"

"For the last time, Maxwell, my name is WUFEI! And leaves don't belong on the ground, they go on trees!" Wufei fumed.

Quatre chuckled at the two. They had been bickering all day about the leaves as they raked the mansions yard.

"Well, if they go on the trees why do they fall off every year and onto the ground, huh? Can you answer me that, 'Wufei'?" Duo said his name with a sneer.

Heero, now tired of the back and forth, stepped in. "Will you two shut up? Either way it goes, it needs to be done."

"Heero's right, Duo. If we don't clean it up, the yard will look ugly." Quatre said still snickering.

"What does it matter if the yard is pretty or not?! Its outside!" Duo shouted.

"Duo." This time it was Trowa that spoke up. "What if you wanted to host one of your barbecues? Would you want your guests crunching around on leaves that could fly into their food at any moment? I don't think they'd stay very long if the wind kept blowing leaves onto their plates."

Duo huffed. "I guess so." He muttered kicking the ground lightly with the toe of his right boot.

Suddenly his smile brightened as he looked at the large pile of leaves.

"But ya know... Leaves can be fun too!" He took two arm fulls of leaves and tossed them over the other guys.

"Maxwell!"

"Duo!"

"Baka!"

"..."

Duo laughed. "Your faces!" He shouted clutching is stomach as he doubled over in laughter. The finger he had pointing at them came up to wipe a small tear from his eye.

Before he knew what happened he found himself drowning in four sets of arm fulls of leaves.

Duo turned red and huffed. "What the hell?! Do you know how long it'll take me to wash my hair out now?!" He shouted.

Duo frantically brushed as much leaves and dirt from his hair as he could. He paused suddenly as he spotted the leaf blower. An evil glint, lighted his eyes.

He watched the others still laughing to themselves, already raking the leaves back up, as he tiptoed over to the blower.

Turning it towards the pile from the other side so he was facing them but couldn't be seen, he hit the on switch.

The leaves whipped up and around the other pilots as he laughed manically moving the leaf blower back and forth to be sure he got them all.

"OMAE O KUROSU!"

Duo's eyes widen as Heero came into visual as they leaves finally settled after turning off the blower. He was covered in dirt and leaves. His hair was even more wild than usual and his eyes glared at Duo in a way that frightened him.

"AYAIII" Duo screeched dropping the machine and running!

Heero chased after him, hot on his tail, swinging his own rake back and forth.

"Get back here, baka!" He shouted.

The others laughed and watched as they disappeared down the road.

"Dammit!" Wufei shouted as he turned back to the pile that was no longer there. The leaves were now spread all over the yard again.

"Now we have to do this all ourselves!" He turned back to face Quatre and Trowa to find they were also gone.

He looked towards the house to see them slipping inside and he knew without checking that they had locked the door.

It was obvious when the little blonde pilot gave him a mischievous smile and a little finger wave as he closed the curtains with his other hand.

"INJUSTICE! DAMN YOU ALL!" He continued to shout repeatedly as he did the only thing he could do being locked out of the house.

He cleaned the yard all by himself. He was going to get his revenge.

(A/N: I'm pretty sure I'm going to do a Winter one as well! Be on the look out!)
