Duo Maxwell stood, preparing himself for what was to come. He pulled his hat down a little tighter and stepped through into the darkened room. He took up his position, readying himself for the next person. He saw a shadow move in through a different doorway and take up their spot, too. "Heh.. that's probably Quatra." Duo whispered quietly to himself.
Trowa Barton snuck in, taking the position next to the light switch. "He won't get a jump on us this time. We're making sure he doesn't know what's happening."
"I can't believe we're gonna get him. This is gonna be great. I wanna see the look on their face." Quatra settled in for a pretty long wait. Wu Fei prepared himself for what was coming. He got behind some boxes, keeping covered so he wouldn't be spottted.
Suddenly, the main door opened. A lone figure stood, the light illuminating a young male body. He stepped forward, not thinking of any danger. The lights suddenly flicked on, and all the pilots jumped out.
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY, HEERO!!"
"Oh no, not again." Heero hung his head, not believing that he fell for the surprise party. They were all here, Wu Fei, Duo, Trowa, Quatra. They'd all come together and tricked him.
Just then, the door opened again, revealing a female form. "Surprise, Heero." Ralina had just arrived, wearing something she definitely wouldn't normally be wearing.
"Woo-hoo! Looked like somebody got gussied up for dear, little Heero." Of course, this comes from Duo. He leered at Heero, laughing at his expression.
"Come on, Heero. Loosen up a little." Trowa reached for some cake. He slices pieces for each of them, and hands them out.
"I can't believe... you guys did this... We should be concentrating on Oz or the Alliance." Heero took the cake, though.
"C'mon, Heero, we all have to take a little while off. We can't make that our entire life." Quatra took his cake, picked up a fork and took a few bites.
"Yeah, Heero. Take some time out for the people in your life." Ralina looked at Heero, trying to get him to open up.
"Fine, you all went to so much trouble. I'll give in." Heero reluctantly accepted their proposition.
"YAY!"
The time they had... Can you readers believe that they got Heero playing party games??!! Just imagine for a second, the image of Heero competeing with Duo and Quatra in a 'Pin The Tail on The Donkey' contest. Or Heero, Wu Fei, and Trowa in a Pinata competition. It was quite a night, ending with Duo eating the last piece of cake, Ralina yelling at Duo for the same thing stated above, Heero whomping on Trowa after he loses the Pinata competition. (Hint: Trowa took off his eye-cloth.. ^_^) It was very fun, and gave the pilot's a chance to get revenge on all the pain Oz had given them. (Hence the title.) Heero waved good-bye as all the other left, and as he turned back, he actually smiled. The first smile he'd had in a long while....
THE END
