The Gundam Moon Chronicles: The Zoo



[The G-boys arrived at the zoo at one o'clock PM. Earlier in the day, Duo had taken the
boys sightseeing in Los Angeles, his hometown. Now, it was time to visit the zoo. Heero
seemed excited to see the whale show. Trowa was dying to see the elephants because he
missed the ones in the circus. Quatre wanted to see the butterflies. Wufei did not care
what he saw because zoos are weak. But, deep down, he wanted to see the panda bears. The
boys waited in line for their turn to pay admission. Finally, they were the next in line.]

Ticket Saleswoman: That will be forty-five dollars please.
Heero: Forty-five dollars? For one ticket?!
Wufei: Tourism sucks!
Quatre: Just pay her so we can get our tickets to get in.
Heero: Okay, but I still think the price is too high.
Duo: Well, that's what you get here in LA. That price is actually pretty decent.

[The boys paid their money and entered the zoo]

Quatre: Wow! Look at that fountain! Isn't it beautiful?
Trowa: Yeah.
Wufei: Gift Shops!
Heero: We can hit those on the way out.
Trowa: Yeah. We don't want to carry bags around all day.
Heero: Plus, I need to buy Relena another stuffed bear.
All but Heero: Huh!?!?!
Heero: Well...she smothered the life out of the other one I got her-literally.
Duo: I thought you didn't care about Relena.
Heero: I'm going to kill you.
Duo: A likely story.
Heero: Just wait.

[The G-boys walked past the shops, dragging Wufei behind them. The first exhibit they
came upon was the children's exhibit]


Quatre: Look! A petting zoo!!
Heero: Those are just pigs and goats. You see those all the time on farms.
Trowa: It's nothing exciting.
Quatre: Yes, but on my colony-and in the desert-these animals do not exist! It is rare
that I get to see them up close!
Duo: Look everyone! A llama!
Heero: Llamas spit.
Duo: Aw, he won't spit at me! Trowa, could you take my picture with the llama?
Trowa: Sure.

[Trowa readied the camera to take Duo's picture with the llama. As the flash went off,
Duo screamed in agony. The other guys started laughing. Duo had been spit upon by the
llama. After washing his hair in the fountain to rid it of llama spit, the boys continued
on their journey through the zoo. The next exhibit was aquatics]

Heero: I want to see the whale and dolphin show. It starts in fifteen minutes.
Duo: Okay. Let's look at the other fish and then get a seat.
Trowa: Okay.
Quatre: Hey Wufei! There are alligators and crocodiles over here!
Wufei: They are weak.
Heero: Yeah, they do look a bit pathetic-all caged up like this.
Duo: Here's the seal and sea lion cove! Let's get some fish to feed them.
Quatre: That sounds like a great idea!
Trowa: I'm going to go pet the sting rays.
Wufei: I want to feed the seal.

[After feeding the animals, the boys went into the pavilion to view the fish]

Duo: Wow! Look at these sharks! I bet those teeth are sharp!
Heero: Would you like to find out, Duo?
Quatre: Heero, that was not nice.
Heero: He started it.
Trowa: He didn't say anything mean to you.
Heero: He made fun of my bear for Relena earlier.
Duo: Still harping about that, huh?
Quatre: These fish have such amazing color! Their brightness is so intense!
Heero: Let's go get seats for the show.

[The boys entered the show area and took seats in the front row. None of them had
ever been to a whale and dolphin show before. They did not know what to expect. A few
moments later, the show started]

Quatre: Wow! Look at those dolphins do flips!
Trowa: I can do flips.
Heero: Yeah! Those dolphins sure are neat!
Duo: They can even do backflips!
Trowa: I CAN DO FLIPS!
Wufei: Dolphins are cool.
Trowa: I CAN DO FLIPS!!!!!!

[As Trowa stands up to say these words to his friends, who are mesmerized by the dolphins
doing flips, a dolphin glides by the side of the tank and splashes water over the side.
Trowa is now drenched. Everyone else begins to laugh as Trowa rings water out of his blue
shirt. The laughter does not last long. A giant whale glides along the side of the tank
going the opposite direction, drenching everyone in the front section of the stands. Now
everyone is soaked. The boys leave after the show, still wet, and head for the Australian
exhibit]

Duo: Cool! A yellow-footed rock wallaby!
Trowa: Wow. I didn't know kookaburras really existed.
Quatre: Look! That kangaroo has a baby in its pouch! Isn't life wonderful?
Heero: Relena would like that koala bear.
Duo: Still thinking about Relena, eh?
Heero: That is none of your business.
Quatre: Let's not fight.

[The next exhibit was the primate exhibit]

Duo: Wow Heero, that gorilla looks just like you.
Heero: You look like a chimp.
Quatre: I love the lemurs! They are so cute!
Trowa: Wufei, I think that monkey likes you.
Wufei: What?
Trowa: He's making obscene gestures at you.

[The lion and giraffe exhibit was the next stop for the G-boys]

Heero: Here lion lion. I have a nice treat for you.
Duo: Hey! I'm not a kitty treat!
Trowa: I like giraffes.
Wufei: Giraffes are weak. They don't do anything.
Trowa: Wow! The elephant exhibit!
Quatre: You miss the circus don't you?
Trowa: Yeah.

[The boys moved on to the bear exhibit]

Trowa: Look at the brown bears.
Quatre: Yeah! They are so big compared to the black ones!
Duo: Those are Montana Grizzly Bears.
Wufei: Panda Bears!!

[Wufei leans over the side of the railing for a closer look]

Duo: Those are from China. The zoo just imported them in three weeks ago.
Wufei: Panda Bears!!
Trowa: Yes.
Quatre: Wufei? Maybe you shouldn't lean over the railing so far.
Heero: Wufei. You are going to fall in.
Wufei: Panda Bears!!!

[Wufei leans even further over the railing and falls into the panda exhibit. The bears
seem interested in their new play toy and maul Wufei, who escapes with scratches and
bruises after the zookeeper lets him out of the pen. They continue on to the butterfly
exhibit. This is what Quatre had been waiting for]

Quatre: Wow! Look at the colors on the butterflies! Aren't they beautiful?
Trowa: Yes.
Wufei: Butterflies are weak.
Heero: Wufei, are you still pouting because the panda mauled you?
Wufei: Pandas are weak!!
Duo: Does anyone hear a buzzing sound?
Trowa: No.
Quatre: OH MY GOD! Heero! THERE IS A BEE ON YOUR NECK!
Heero: OUCH! I'm going to kill that bee!
Duo: That is one suicidal bee.

[The G-boys headed to their final destination at the zoo after Heero had successfully
squashed the bee. They entered the reptile house. This had been the part of the day that
duo had been dreading]

Trowa: That lizard changes color.
Heero: Wow. These monitors are cool.
Quatre: It reminds me of my home and the maguanaut corps!
Duo: I hate snakes.
Trowa: There are the turtles.
Heero: What's wrong, Duo?
Quatre: Look at that boa! It's got a mouse!
Duo: I hate snakes...I hate snakes.
Trowa: Look at how that sidewinder moves.
Heero: Hn.
Quatre: Pythons! They are so pretty!
Duo: OH MY GOD! A SNAKE!! GET IT OFF! GET IT OFF!!!!!!!
Trowa: How did that get out?
Quatre: Heero?
Heero: Hm?

[All the way home, Duo refused to talk to anybody. It wasn't just that Heero had let a
snake out of its cage to scare him. It was the fact that he was embarrassed about what
happened afterward. Finally, they were back at Duo's home. Duo was relieved because he
could shower and change clothes. He had wet his pants when he had seen the snake]

...The Gundam Moon has fallen as our heroes settle down for a night of fun at Duo's house
in Los Angeles. What will they do before their next big adventure? Find our in the
