"What in the world is he doing?" Wufei stepped up next to Heero's chair.

"I honestly don't know." Heero stood and they both watched the braided boy together.

Down by the tidemark Duo was furiously digging in the sand. He seemed to be making a half circle facing the incoming waves.

Quatre walked up and looked on bemusedly for a few moments. "Duo, what are you doing?"

The braided boy looked up and grinned. "I'm making a sand castle!" He proudly proclaimed and went back to digging.

Quatre quirked an eyebrow. "How is digging a hole making a sand castle?"

Duo looked up with a 'duh' look. "I'm making the moat first. See I'm piling up the sand from the moat to use for the castle."

Quatre laughed. He rolled up his sleeves and started helping his friend dig.

"You realize that you really need a shovel and some pails for this, don't you?" Quatre asked as he heaped another hand full of sand on the growing pile.

"Yea that's what I saw on the movie." Quatre held in a laugh, of course that's where Duo had gotten the idea. "But I figured I probably won't get too far 'cause Mr. I've- got- a- stick- up- my- butt- Chang and Mr. Everyone- is- an- enemy- out- to- get- me- Yuy will want to leave soon."

Quatre giggled loudly at the description of their friends. "Well then lets see what we can do, hmm?"

They grinned at each other and started packing down the large pile of sand.

"What are you looking at?" Trowa asked as he walked up to Heero and Wufei.

"We are trying to figure out what Duo and Quatre are doing." Heero replied, never taking his eyes off of the two boys by the water.

The three boys looked on in silence for a while. "I think they're making a sand castle."

Wufei glanced at the emerald eyed boy. "How do you know?"

"Duo was watching a movie set by the beach a few days ago. He seemed rather excited when he saw the children making a sand castle."

The three boys continued to watch.

Heero snorted. "Baka."

Trowa walked over to the pile of sand that was slowly taking shape. He stood and observed the two pilots silently.

"Hey Q, this doesn't seem to be working very well. This part," he pointed to a crumbling section, "keeps falling over."

"It needs to be wet." Both boys jumped and looked up sheepishly at the tallest pilot standing over them.

"Geeze Tro, give a man a heart attach!" Duo grinned and flicked some sand at him.

"If it was wet it would be a pile of glop." Quatre looked at the pile.

"No, it needs to be damp to stick together." Wufei replied as he walked up, Heero right behind.

The five boys quickly set about putting their ideas to work. Looking at them, no one would know they were the five most wanted people on the planet.
