Title: Operation: Onna

Authors: Animechan123 and StandingOnTheRooftops

Prompt: Written for 2010 MoR competition. Secrets, Matchmaking- and possibly a dash of 'Obliviousness'

Disclaimer: Neither Animechan nor Rooftops own Gundam Wing. Not for lack of trying, though. ^_^

Summary: Why you should NEVER let Duo push 'that' button. Just keep Duo far, far away from ANY unknown devices, okay? It will save all the boys a lot of headache... as this story will prove.

Warnings: Probably PG-15 or so. Nothing too graphic, though. Humour, sap, fluff, mild angst. Yaoi pairings. Set Post-EW.

Operation: Onna

"I can't believe we have to go find the lab!" Duo whined as they walked through the almost deserted streets of L1. The Gundam boys had been sent on a mission to find their mentors labs. However- Duo had the map of L1 when they were driving there and got them lost. Now they had to walk through the streets because there was no other way of getting through the old broken streets. Heero and Wufei begun to get annoyed at Duo's constant whining. They were both ready to hit him. "Who ever thought that we'd be tracking down the plagues of chaos after all this time?" Quatre and Trowa didn't seem to care as they were too busy in each other's company to notice what Duo was actually complaining about.

"Duo if you don't shut up I am going to –"

"I know. I know. Omae o Korosu!" Duo interrupted Heero's little rant. Duo sighed. "I'm just saying how on earth are we going to find something that until this morning we didn't even know existed?"

"Duo, you're starting to annoy us!" He said coldly as he gave his famous glare at the back of Duo's head.

Wufei rolled his eyes and folded his arms as he watched the two obviously-in-love boy's fight. "You two are like an old married couple having a love quarrel." Wufei commented. Duo and Heero spun around to look at Wufei. Both glared. Quatre and Trowa almost bumped in to Wufei.

"We do not go out!"

"There is no such thing as love."

"No way, not as long as I'm the God of Death."

Quatre sighed. Even after the war Duo still called himself the God of death. Quatre turned to Trowa to see if the emerald-eyed wonder would jump in and stop them before Wufei was nothing but a pile of melted goo on the floor from all the glaring.

"You saying you boys don't believe in love?" Asked a shrivelled old voice.

Five sets of eyes turned suddenly. Standing in a doorway... that Quatre could have sworn was not there five seconds ago... was a rather old woman. Her tan skin was wrinkled from age, her dark brown hair gone mostly white, but her eyes were a clear and sparkling green, vivid and alive with life and light. She wore a white peasant blouse and a blood red skirt with a brown sash tied about her waist.
"Love does not exist," Heero repeated emphatically. "Anger is an emotion. But love is not."
"Why do you say that, boy?" The woman asked.
"I have never felt it," Heero shrugged. "So how can I say it exists?"
The woman's eyes narrowed on him. "You cannot always feel the air, either, son. But you know it's there all the same, because without it you'd die." Her gaze racked over the group of teenagers. "Follow me," she motioned, turning back in the doorway and disappearing through a curtain of jingling beads.
"We have a mission to complete," Wufei reminded them, "We don't have time to be humouring foolish old women."
"It'll just take a second," Trowa replied, ducking through the curtain. He'd lived with the circus long enough to know that not all gypsies and fortune tellers were crocks, but that some actually seemed to be genuine.
Quatre shrugged and followed his lover through the door. Duo and Heero shared a look; one that clearly translated the trouble 03 and 04 could get themselves into, before quickly following their team-mates. Wufei growled, muttering an oath, and walked into the room beyond the curtain.

Quatre felt as if something strange was going to happen as he followed his Trowa. Quatre remembered being at the circus many times when Trowa explained how most fortune tellers were fakes and only did it to get money or something. In the back of Quatre's mind he wished he had listened to Wufei but he also knew that he had to follow Trowa in there just in case. Besides it might be fun to see what the woman would say about them. No doubt it would be about love, or a loss in the family. Well if it was a family loss and they said it about one of the other boys they'd know it to be wrong because Quatre and kind of Trowa were the only ones who had siblings. Quatre was surprised to see two women through the door. Quatre felt the need to stay close to Trowa.

Trowa could feel the young blonde's nervousness about being in this place. Trowa wrapped his arm around the young blonde and wondered what these women would be doing in this part of the colony. It wasn't exactly the most prosperous area. Seemed a perfect place for a secret lab. He watched as the first woman said something to the second. Duo and the others joined them a few seconds after. Trowa could see they were reluctant to come here. He understood that but what harm could they possibly do to them.

"So you do not believe in love?" Asked the second woman. She looked similar to the first woman it was likely they were siblings. "Then you are blind. You do not see what two of you already have."

"Be cautious for if you do not see, you will never understand."

"Love is something that can be seen, but can't be seen."

Duo and Heero got annoyed at how the women acted to their comments earlier. They didn't like the fact that these old bats were giving them advice on their lives. Duo and Heero had nothing wrong with respecting elders... but not these two women.

"Listen, ladies," Duo said, smiling with his almost frighteningly real jester's mask. "It's been nice and all, but we've got places to be, things to destroy, y'know, the usual? So if you'll excuse us, we'll just get going..."
"Stop," the second woman commanded. Duo paused, not at all liking the woman's tone. It reminded him of a bossy grandmother.
"You will stay long enough to have your fortune's told, no?" the first woman asked, motioning to a small table with a stack of cards on it.
"Well..." Quatre sounded really unsure.
"If two of us agree to this, can we go?"
"You can go either way, son," the second woman said. "But we really would like a chance to read into your lives. My sister Esmeralda can read the cards for someone." Green eyes speared Wufei, who had remained silent since entering the room. "You, silent one. I will scry for your future."
Wufei snorted. "You're going to look into a silly crystal ball and tell me that I'm going to meet the woman of my dreams and or that I've had great heartache in my life. Puh-lease. I don't need the waste of my time."
"SIT," the woman commanded, motioning towards a chair in front of a second table. Upon the table rested nothing but a shallow bowl of water and a candle on either side. Wufei snorted again, but did as he was told. Even if they were batty old women, he'd been raised to respect his elders... and plus, he already knew she was crazy, and it looked like Duo was already lining up at the other table.

Duo sat at the table waiting for the old woman to do her thing. Esmeralda pulled out a deck of cards and perfectly placed them on the table she then started to pick a card from the top of the pile. Duo didn't even bother looking at the card just tried to stair the woman out. Duo didn't believe in psychics, but he believed in empathy. Of course he had to, Quatre was empathic. But there is a big difference between them. Quatre can put himself in to others shoes and feel what they feel. Anyone could do that if they tried. Most good actors did it... Not to the standard Quatre can but still. Being able to see the future or get a glimpse of it is impossible.

"You seem to have had a tough life. A life of revenge, hatred and loss." Esmeralda spoke. No shit Sherlock, Duo thought. There had been a war. At least one person in each family had gone and fought in the war. "Yet you found little happiness from the war." Yeah I got my four best friends here, don't I. Duo did in some way respect the old bag but still didn't believe her. She turned over another card. "In the next few days you will be extremely confused, and have a difficult time accepting things." Duo had no idea what she was talking about. Duo was confused now, at how this woman thought that she knew what was going to happen in the next few days. "Over time you will change your ways and experience new emotions you have never felt before."

"New emotions I have never felt before?" Duo asked unimpressed by this woman. "Lady I don't know what tree you've been barking up, but you certainly need to stop this now."

"Watch your tongue boy." Esmeralda snapped. "You might just regret those words." Duo didn't like her tone one bit. In a way he felt sorry for the woman for believing she had a mystical power to see in to the future.

Wufei watched as the woman settled on the other side of the table. She tapped a single fingertip to the surface of the water in the bowl and waited or the ripples to stop. She stared so intently at the water that Wufei chuckled a little at her.
"You're crazy, lady," he said simply.
"And you are a foolish young boy," she replied. "I see a very, very painful past. You've lost someone very, very dear to you."
"We all have," Wufei countered. "You'd be hard pressed to find someone who hadn't lost with the war going on." he could only imagine Duo was going through something similar. The woman looked up from the reflective surface.
"Yes, we have. But you... it hurts you more than most. I see a young woman in your life. A bright, vivacious light... extinguished." She covered the flame of one candle with her hand. A wisp of smoke trailed up into the air from where the flame went out.
Wufei growled. "You know nothing," he snapped. "Women and bleeding hearts shouldn't fight!"
"You may soon change your tune on that belief," she stated simply before carrying on. "And I see confusion in your future. Difficulties you will have to overcome. A great test of strength and will."
"Crazy old bat," Wufei said.
"I see someone in your future..."
"Tall dark and handsome?" Wufei smirked, realizing the age old line.
"Tall, yes," she said, peering into the bowl. "Handsome, most certainly. But no... Not dark. Dark of soul, maybe. A clouded and pained heart. But fair of visage."
Wufei laughed.
"Crazy," he declared. "Crazy old bat. 01,02,03,04... let's go."
"Right with you, Wuffers," Duo replied. Quatre and Trowa both spared one final look at the two old women before following their comrades back out into the artificial sunlight of L1.

"Can you believe those women tried to tell our future and got all mystical on us?" Duo laughed his head off as they continued walking. Wufei and Heero had to admit it was rather amusing at what the women tried to do. "I mean come on, how delusional do you have to be to do that?"

Quatre on the other had did not see this situation in such a funny way. Saying it was stupid and not logical fair enough but to say it as if it was something wrong with them. "But Duo they seemed really genuine. " Quatre stated. He wasn't one to stop the fun his friends were having but... "It almost seemed as if they worshipped everything they did. Like a religion or something."

"Quatre, it's not. You've seen them many times at the circus." Trowa stated as he tapped his lovers shoulder. "Remember when you went to the one last time you came to see me preformed?"

"Yeah I guess it is stupid." Quatre sighed and put a cute little smile on his face. Duo wrapped his arm around Quatre and joked about how it was just old age getting to the women and that they should just forget about them and head over to this secret lab. After a few more minutes of walking they reached their destination.

It looked like an old abandoned warehouse; the roof was partly torn off, one of the doors was hanging off its hinges and all the windows were broken. This was the lab. Looks like it had seen better days. Perfect place to hide a lab, no one would suspect a suspicious mad scientist to put their secrets in here.

"Heero are you sure this is right?" Asked Wufei, doubting 01 ability to hack information.

"Yes." Heero said coldly. "Apparently it's underneath this warehouse."

"Well then let's go!" Duo yelled racing in. Quatre and Trowa sighed as they watched the hyperactive teenager run into the building followed by Wufei and Heero. Trowa turned to Quatre and asked.

"Think he's ever going to calm down?"

Quatre turned to Trowa and smiled sweetly. "If that day comes, remind me to hand the company to one of my sisters." Trowa's lips curved into a small smile as he leaned down and kissed Quatre, before they started to walk after their friends.

It took Heero two tries, but finally he had to admit defeat and let Duo take over picking open the lock on the door. It had taken them a few minutes to search around and find the rectangular seems in the floor, and the padlock that secured the doors... for that's what they were. Two doors built into the floor. It took Duo all of forty-six point seven seconds to flick the lock off.
"Who's the man?" He demanded, twirling the lock around his finger.
"Baka," Heero muttered as he and Trowa each grabbed a hold of a door and pulled. The joints were a bit rusty and creaked the boys pulled with all their might. Wufei threw his shoulders into helping Heero, and Duo and Quatre both joined with Trowa before finally, they could let the doors clatter open onto the floor.
Duo peered down into darkness. "So... how far down is this lab, again?"

"Unspecified."

Duo grinned, catching the glint of something in the darkness. Hmm... He wondered how badly he could mess with Heero. "Okay then. Only one way to find out, then," he said simply. With a manic grin, he jumped.
"Geronimoooooo~!" he cried.
"DUO!" Four horrified voices called out after him. Heero's hands were out, clutching at empty air.
From somewhere just below them, a voice cackled. "Oh, boy! You should have
seen your faces just now!"
"DUO!" Quatre demanded in that 'I am not pleased, but I will not yell'
kind of voice.
"Relax. Just jump already. The floor is only like three or four meters down. Easy as pie." A light switched on. The four pilots saw their comrade below them. "There was stairs, I think, at one point. And there's a door down here. A vertical door. I think the actual lab is just beyond it. What are you four waiting for? Come on."
Trowa shrugged and leaped down gracefully... Wufei two beats behind him. Heero landed firmly, but lightly, and Trowa steadied Quatre when the blond wobbled a bit on landing.
All four pulled out flashlights and trained them in the same direction Duo's was pointing. A door two meters tall and a meter wide stood before them.
"So," Duo chirped. "Let's see what's behind Door Number One, shall we?"

Duo walked up to the door and pushed it open. Slowly and loudly the door began to open. After a few seconds Duo had managed to get the squeaky metal door open. Duo wiped his brow. Even if the door was easier to open than the last one it was still tough. Whatever was in there hadn't been seen in a while.

"Are all the doors in this place squeaky?" Asked Quatre as he uncovered his ears. The squeaking noise caused by the door sent shivers down his spine and gave his goose bumps. Quatre rubbed his arms in attempts to smooth out the bumps.

All the boys gazed into the room to see what chaotic inventions their crazy mentors had created. Long rows of test tubes lined the tables that seemed to reach the other end of the room. The large screen computer which was obviously their main computer used during their time here. The smell of different (mostly rotten) substances that littered the place. Broken beakers scattered across the floor. A coat rack with white lab coats hung close to the door. And at the back of the room, a strange looking machine that none of them knew anything about. The boys slowly and carefully walked around the large lab searching for something important.

Heero immediately went over to the computer searching for what was on it. Hacking into the main frame and getting access to everything was easy. Doing it without leaving a trace was another story. Heero found it odd to what he found on the computer. Plans to something; something he had never heard of before. Heero frowned as he read the screen. What on Earth is xx-015? It must be some kind of experiment Heero thought.

Quatre and Trowa searched around by the broken beakers and chemicals that spread upon the tables. All pretty different colours in side tubes surrounding sheets of paper that seemed to have scientific meaning that neither of them could understand. Trowa looked at one of the sheets and picked it up. Trowa read over the sheet not understanding what any of it meant. Something about DNA, blood type, genetic engineering; that was all he could figure out from the pile of words. Quatre walked up to Trowa and wrapped his arms around his lover.

"What's that?" He asked curiously. Trowa held up the sheet so Quatre could see it. Quatre scanned the sheet and frowned. He looked up at Trowa.

"Something to do with genetic engineering." Trowa stated.

"Some of this sounds like Test Tube Baby stuff."

Trowa didn't miss the hint of sadness in Quatre's voice. Quatre sometimes hated the fact that he was a test tube but also lived life to the full... Well at least when he could.

Eventually, Duo reached the odd machine at the other end of the long room.
Hmm, he thought, going over it. It looked for all the world like some overgrown computer integrated with some kind of chemistry set. Beakers and vials and tubes and hoses all over the place, all hooked into a main CPU. "XX-015," Duo muttered, reading off the wording etched into the CPU's frame.
"Don't touch anything," Wufei warned him.
"Yah, yah," Duo returned flippantly. "Anyway, even if I did, this thing is so old; it probably doesn't work anymore anyway. Besides... what harm could it do?"
"It sounds like genetic engineering," Trowa called out.
"Genetic resequencing, to be precise," Heero replied, never looking away from the computer screen. "Dr. J was very big into genetic resequencing to make people stronger... to make better soldiers." To anyone else, his voice never faltered. But to his four closest friends... they could detect an odd inflection on that last sentence. They all knew without being told that Heero had been one of J's 'experiments' once upon a time. "I would like to know what this experiment is, though. I have never heard of anything like this. I think that whatever they were working on backfired. Had an unintended result. Messing with Genetics has to be precise. One mistake and everything is thrown out of order."
"Well... Was that experiment xx-015?" Duo asked, turning back around to the computer like machine.
"Affirmative."

"Then... Let's just turn this on and see what it does." With that... and ignoring Wufei's warning... he plugged the machine into the wall- and then flipped the power switch.
"MAXWELL!" Oops, Duo thought. Wufei did NOT sound happy.
The machine hummed to life, the screen flickering for a few moments with unreadable programming. Then, it started to run. Vials started to drip into one another, tubes and hoses filled and humming filled the air. Duo took a quick moment and rifled through the computer. "See? Nothing to worry about. It seems whatever this machine does; it does by an air born agent and radiation exposure. Both of which are contained in a sealed box. No problems."
"Um... Duo..." Quatre asked nervously, coming closer.
"Yeah, Cat?"
"*That* sealed box?" Quatre asked... pointing to a glass and metal box about twenty inches by twenty inches sitting to the side of the machine and hooked to it by several hoses and tubes. And the glass panel across the front was shattered, a spider's web of white cracks snaking their way across the clear glass panel.
Whatever chemicals or radiation would be going into that box... probably wouldn't be staying in that box.
"Oh... Shit..." Duo muttered.
Quatre snapped his eyes shut and slapped his hands over his face as he saw more cracks in the glass forming, the spider's web growing larger. Quatre couldn't look; couldn't watch what was about to happen. Quatre listened to Wufei and Heero cursing at Duo from his right. Even now the only sound that erupted from Trowa was a gasp as the glass finally stressed enough, giving into the pressure behind it and shattering everywhere.
"HIT THE DECK!" Duo yelled.

Trowa protectively threw his arms around the now blind Quatre and pulled him to the floor. A loud high pitched squeak erupted from the machine, like a steam engine blowing the whistle. The sound of glass shattering to the floor flooded through their ears as a horrible smelling gasp attacked their senses. Trowa felt the erg to show everyone what he had eaten in the last 24 hours. Trowa gripped tighter to Quatre as the noise flooded through his ears. His ears were already sensitive to sounds after the war. He didn't need this making it worse.

Duo wanted to scream in horror. Being the closest to the machine if it still worked then he would be hit by whatever it was doing first. What if what was happening in that machine- that gas that had been released- what if it was poisonous? What if the radiation affected him? Duo's heart was now beating so fast it would have put Epyon to shame. Duo couldn't watch. His eyes shut as if he had found himself in space with no suit and he was trying to keep himself alive.

Heero and Wufei slammed to the floor. The machine was going berserk, and sounding like a banshee. It was annoying and irritating. In their minds they both cursed Duo at his idiotic curiosity to touch everything. If that xx-015 didn't kill them or damage their bodies, Heero and Wufei would most certainly kill Duo. But this thing... this machine! What if it had the power to be used on the colony? What where they going to do? They had to stop that thing and fast.

"DUO!" Wufei yelled. "Shut the damn thing off!"

Duo took a peek at the machine before rushing over and pulling the plug on the machine. The machine powered down but the gas and radiation had gotten to all of them. Duo quickly turned to see them all on the floor. Before his body gave way and his vision blacked out...

Quatre blinked his eyes slowly as he finally became aware again. In the darkness of the lab, he couldn't tell much. Trowa was still draped over his back... still unconscious. Odd... but it didn't feel quite like Trowa. What had that gas and radiation done? Had it merely knocked them out? He could feel Trowa's even, steady breathing behind him. Had the gas and radiation been contained in the lab? Or had it gotten out, affecting the colonists, too?
He groaned. He itched all over. Inside and out, oddly. They really should check to see if they were too contaminated, then gather up the research and head back home. Who knew what kind of damage that radiation had caused them?
"Trowa," he muttered. "Trowa, move. I need to breath."
Trowa grunted, but didn't move. Quatre sighed, and elbowed him, trying to get him to roll off. He did, and an aching Quatre sat up, feeling as if Sandrock had did a jig on him while he was sleeping.

A few feet away, Wufei cursed softly as he woke up. If he wasn't maimed or dead... he was going to KILL DUO MAXWELL. Then find some way to revive him, so that he could kill him again. Curiosity killed the cat, as the saying went. And if curiosity hadn't killed Duo Maxwell yet... then Chang Wufei was certainly going to do the job!
He groaned as he sat up, feeling aches all across his body and a vague itching sensation along his skin. Before he could actually move anymore, he reached over and shoved Heero's shoulder. The pilot jerked awake in a blink, setting up so fast Wufei was sure it had to give him a headache. Sapphire eyes blinked open in a rush, hand automatically moving to grab Wufei's in self defence. Only quick thinking kept Heero from following through. Instead... he sat staring at Wufei. Cautiously, he reached up and rubbed his eyes.
Wufei blinked. What an odd thing for Yuy to be doing. Then, they both looked to where Trowa rolled over, and a tousle-haired Quatre sat up. Wufei blinked again. Okay... there was something subtly different about the blonde, Wufei decided. His fair skin was glowing a little more, his already large eyes were larger- the lashes a bit darker, longer. Wufei had to think he looked more like a girl now than he did before. He looked around... and finally saw his own reflection in the faint reflection from the large computer screen.
His hair had fallen loose from his pony-tail... and like Quatre; his own facial features seemed a bit softer and more feminine. And... His dark blue tank-top did NOTHING to hide the small breasts on his chest.
Wait... WHAT! Wufei looked down... and fought the urge to scream.
Yes... he was ALL girl!
"NOOOO!" he cried. "Yuy, please tell me I'm dreaming! That I'm still unconscious!
The sharp "k'so" that met his ears... it proclaimed that he was not dreaming. That this was real... and that he was a girl.

Quatre blinked as he heard Wufei's pleadings to Heero, then his swearing. Quatre didn't understand since Wufei now had his back to him and he couldn't see Heero. Quatre noticed Wufei's hair was out of the tight ponytail it was usually in. Quatre raked a hand through his. Quatre felt his hair feel slightly longer than usual. Quatre blinked and then frowned. Quatre once again raked his hand through his hair and attempted to see if he could see it without a reflection. Quatre gave a small whimper which reminded him of a puppy that just got stood on. Quatre blinked once more speechless of his hairs length. He knew he had to get it cut, but before they passed out it couldn't have been that long. Quatre turned to his lover now lying on his back. His eyes widened as he took in his Trowa's appearance.

Trowa's face was still covered by his long caramel shaded hair however the back was longer. Gorgeous long silk like hair cascaded around the tall youth. His face looked softer, his usual sharp features where gone and replaced with a delicate yet mysterious beauty. Trowa's body was much slimmer than usual. His tight jeans did nothing to hide the curviness of his hips. Quatre looked at Trowa's chest now seeing not the smooth muscular chest that he loved to sleep on but fairly large breasts. Quatre's jaw dropped as he looked at his sexy lover to see the drop dead sexy woman. Quatre had never really been attracted to girls, but FUCK! Trowa was a hot girl. Quatre felt as if he was going to faint.

"Trowa... Trowa!" Quatre repeated the boys name but still he wouldn't wake up. Quatre sighed and crossed his arms. Then an idea struck him. "TROWA HELP!" Quatre acted as if he needed help. Trowa shot up straight away pulling out the gun tucked in the back of his jeans. Trowa blinked a few times and looked at the girl who sat beside him. Her smile and her eyes looked so much like Quatre's. The girl gave a small distressed giggle. "About time..."

Duo slowly came too rubbing his sore head as his body began to itch. Duo looked down in his dizzy state and saw the breasts that lay on his chest. Duo pulled at his shirt and looked down at them. "Oh," escaped his lips as he then looked to a large piece of glass which held his refection. Duo blinked a few time, "huh?" Duo blinked. "ARGH-!" Duo yelled as he jumped to his feet and saw everyone. "Everyone! W-What should I do?" He yelled franticly almost acting like a headless chicken. "M-my body! A...a woman!"

"Way to state the obvious, baka," Heero grunted. Duo looked over at the former Wing pilot... then did a double take. O...kay... that was weird. So it wasn't just him, then. Funny that Heero's glare lost none of its effectiveness, despite the large eyes, the wavy chocolate hair that cascaded down to just past his shoulders. His angular features were still sharp, but somewhat different. More elegant. He too had breasts. Duo wouldn't call them big, but... well; Duo was no expert on bra size. And even though they were half hanging out of the green tank top that looked now to be a few sizes too big, Heero still looked beautiful... but deadly.
"Wow, 'Ro..." Duo breathed. "You make one hot chick."
Another Prussian blue glare levelled at him.
"And you will make one nice cadaver," Wufei retorted, standing up on somewhat wobbly legs. It was harder to balance with his weight all out of proportion like this. He lunged at Duo, who screeched and tumbled quickly out of the way.
"I DIDN'T MEAN TO!" The braided teen screeched. Wufei glowered even more. That was so *unfair*. Duo moved with a natural grace and agility, even with his body completely different from what it was. Argh. And Wufei was the one with all the martial arts training! He should be able to adapt like that, too!
"STOP!"
Duo skidded to a stop, Wufei almost toppling into him. All four boys looked to Quatre, standing with his hands on his rather wider hips. His hair was longer, somewhat past shoulder length, straight but curling faintly at the ends. His salmon shirt draped elegantly over his thin frame, masking the new bust he sported, and the khaki pants settled low on his hips, too large for his now even more slender frame. All in all... he perfectly fit the image of an irate woman. 'Must be the sisters,' Duo thought.
"We need to figure out if we are still contaminated, figure out if that stuff got out of this room... then we need to contact HQ. Une should be informed, and Sally and Noin will possibly be the best help at the moment.
"That crazy onna is not coming anywhere near me!" Wufei stated. It was no secret that the pig-tailed doctor enjoyed tormenting the Chinese man on a regular basis.
At last... it was Duo's turn to smile. Unable to stop himself... he said the first thing that popped into his mind.
"But, 'Fei, baby... *you* are the onna, now!"

"Duo please refrain from pissing off Wufei, because right now I don't think any of us have a body bag!" Quatre stated with his own unique glare that didn't hurt anyone but did show he was serious. Quatre then scanned the room at everyone in it... WOW, he thought, everyone is much cuter than I thought. "We've got more problems than just being turned into girls and seeing if this invention is contained! We have to figure out how we're going to get off this colony!"

"Why's that Q?" Duo asked taking another step so Wufei wouldn't pounce on him like a wild mountain lion. Quatre sighed and turned to Duo.

"Because our pass ports say we're male. And on top of that think about everyone who knows us!" Quatre stated folding his arms over his chest, which in turn pushed his breasts up making them look slightly bigger. "You guys can't go back to your apartments. Not like that anyway. People are going to be suspicious if they see you guys going in there and no sign of the male you." Quatre sighed.

"The only one who could do that would be Duo." Trowa commented trying to get use to his new body. He stood up and folded his arm leaning against a table. Chuckles where heard around the room. Quatre did a fake cough to cover the fact that he found it funny.

Duo tried to use the Heero glare on Trowa but it didn't work. "I resent that Tro." Duo then folded his arms and looked away doing the puppy dog pout.

"Wow." Heero said without convincing. "He can actually pull off Quatre's puppy dog pout."

Duo stuck his tongue out to Heero and then turned back to Quatre and Trowa. Heero and Wufei started to walk unsteadily over to them. "From now on what are we gonna do?" Duo asked staying away from the machine.

"I'll see if I can get in contact with Une." Trowa said pulling out a communicator.

"Let's wait and see if Trowa can get through." Heero spoke in his cold voice folding his arms. Surprisingly his voice had lost most of its coldness with the genetic reconstruction.

"As long as we complete this mission it shouldn't matter." Wufei said in a pompous windbag sort of way.

Guess I'm the #1 moralist around here, Duo thought as he walked over to Quatre now sitting on a desk; swinging his... her legs like a young girl. Quatre wasn't paying attention to anyone but Trowa trying to get through.

"What you thinking Q?" Duo asked jumping up on the desk next to Quatre. Quatre turned to Duo with a look of confusion.

"Just noticing how everyone's voice has gone about five semi tones higher." Quatre said and then turned back to Trowa who was now putting the communicator back in his pocket. "And..." Quatre blushed. "How Trowa looks very elegant and smart as a woman."

Duo gave a glare at the back of Quatre's head. Figures that at a time like this he... she'd still be thinking about banging Trowa, thought Duo. Duo then blinked and thought about something. Duo leaned in to Quatre and whispered in his ear.

"Hey Quatre, do you still have a dick?"
