****Author's Note: Konnichiwa, minna-san, this is my first appearance in this category, ne? Most of my works are back in Sailor Moon Crossovers. Anyways, this is my first time writing a SM crossover with Gundam Wing, although in my mega-multi x-over, there will be Gundam Wing in it, but don't expect that out any time soon, as well as warning to Relena-haters, 'cause it's a Heero/Relena, for good reason. Anyways, this one here is one of those writer's-block removal fics, hopefully I'll get the chapters out quickly, depending on your response, and it will be a fast-pace story. Anyways, this fic is an A/U, and based totally on the movie "The Fifth Element", starring Milla Jovovich, and Bruce Willis, the inspirational song chosen is "Uninvited" by Alanis Morrisette (from "City of Angels"),I am using Latin for the "unknown language", I don't feel like making up gibberish, so if you're board, try and guess who's who with Latin names, my imouto Megami*Silence helped me out on some of this stuff.

Sometime before the creation of colonies- Ancient Temple, Cairo, Egypt
The archeologist had found a life-long treasure inside the ancient temple. He ran his brush over the hieroglyphics etched into the wall. He spoke his thoughts out loud as he cited the legend of the five elements.
"Once every five thousand years, when three planets aline, a great evil comes to consume the Earth....the supreme being will stop it with a great light..."
As he marveled at these things, a priest made his way into the dimly lit temple towards the archeologist. Excited by his find, the archeologist expressed his excitement to the unusually nervous priest.
"This is going to make me famous!"
A shadow began to cast itself across the temple floor alerting the priest to the entrance of the temple.
"They're here...", he mumbled to himself, oblivious to the naive archeologist. The doorway on the bottom of the cone-shaped spaceship opened slowly, four figures waited until they could enter the temple. Tempus led the four guardians, Patres, Amor and Atticum followed quietly. The priest approached Tempus, she bing the only one who could speak English. She abruptly stopped to face him, her ruby eyes sparkling with concern.
"It not safe on Earth anymore, war is coming."
The priest nodded vigorously as the four guardians continued on their way, Tempus looked curiously at the archeologist, he turned around and fell speechless at the sight of her exotic beauty. She rose and eyebrow and looked towards Patres who nodded silently. The symbol on her forehead glowed as she touched the end of her glaive to the back of his neck. The archeologist fell dead instantly. Atticum's symbol upon her head glowed a deep blue, as she opened the hieroglyphic wall and it opened revealing a chamber inside. The priest watched as the four guardians entered the chamber.
Five figures stood in suspended animation, one in the middle, and the other four surrounding. Amor brought in five clear casket-like cases, each guardian taking one of the four outer elements, Fire, Water, Air and Earth, and the fifth element. Three of the guardians led the hovering cases out towards the opening of the ship, Tempus stopped to speak with the priest. He held out his hands in worry.
"If you take the weapon we will be defenseless when the evil returns". Tempus nodded understandingly.
"When the evil returns, so shall we. Pass your knowledge to the next priest as it was passed on to you to prepare for when we next return."
Tempus picked up her charge just as the sun began to set, she walked down the last of the hallways, and as Tempus stepped outside towards the space pod, the large stone door closed magically behind. Piloted by Atticum and Patres the space pod lifted from the deep yellow sands of Egypt's floor, and shot into the endless void known as space.
"Time for the elements to receive their sleep, it shall be the future will call upon them again, but not for a while, so I've seen in the time streams. Shall we leave the galaxy for now?" Tempus inquired of the others, Amor had finished placing the elements within crystal lined beds, and were covered securely almost as if they were treasures forever to be buried.
"I believe that is the wisest choice, Atticum will you set our coordinates, and we shall go to sleep until we are awaken when we are needed again?" Tempus asked, the others agreed, as Atticum complied to Amor's wishes, and the four guardians fell into their own deep sleep within crystal depths.

A.C. 195
Queen Relena had deployed a space cruiser earlier to investigate a disturbance she has been informed was a concern. She stood in front of the main monitor to keep in contact with the ship's general. The general looked outside of the cruiser's main viewing window to see the object of attention. It was a small planet, that seemed to have life beating within it's fiery depths.
"What's the temperature?" The general requested from one of the ship's other officials. They were receiving in readings from a probe sent near the dark planet.
"The temperatures are off the charts, I think something malfunctioned." The official answered back quickly. The general made a request directly back at base where Relena waited patiently.
"Permission to fire", he asked. Relena regarded the officials around her who nodded vigorously.
"Permission granted", she answered back, anxiously twirling a lock of blond hair around her finger. The general ordered the attack, and as they were about to fire the dark planet froze any surface activity, turning into a large cold rock.
"Anticipation notes intelligence." One of the officials stated. As the missiles touched the planet it increased it's size, and became active again, flames flashing wildly about the surface. As more missiles made contact, the planet continued to increase in it's size, and began moving closer towards the ship.
"What's happening?" Relena demanded, "answer me!" The silence wasn't broken as everyone at base nervously waited for someone to answer back.
The general froze in absolute fear as the ship was completely consumed by the flames of the dark planet.

Heero Yuy sat against the wall of the abandoned apartment he now occupied. He typed furiously at his laptop. His current thoughts were interrupted by a loud beeping noise, Dr. J had a new mission for him. He was supposed to head down to a sea-side underground lab, make a copy of the new DNA development research and then destroy and evidence of it existing. 'DNA? Why is that important?' He questioned himself but shook it off.
"Mission accepted", he spoke aloud into the empty room. The sooner he got it done the better, he figured Duo would probably stop by later on to pester him. With that in mind, Heero closed the laptop and headed out the door.

As soon as Treize Khushrenada caught information that a foreign spaceship was nearing the Earth's atmosphere, he had sent out a couple of mobile dolls to attack it. His goal was to recover the four elements for a certain associate of his, he would be compensated very well so he had been told.
The mobile dolls attacked without warning, Tempus quickly gave out orders not knowing what was happening, she needed to protect the elements, and she would, even if it costed her life...
Tempus put the controls on autopilot as she rushed towards the rear of the ship where Patres was navigating. Patres looked up in worry. Just then they could feel an explosion sound off, Tempus looked behind her and noticed the front of the ship was on fire, her eyes widened in horror as she realized that the five elements where there, one in particular was the more vulnerable.
"We have to get out of here!" Tempus screamed, grabbing Patres' arm and leading her to an escape pod, barely making it out before the whole ship burst into flames.

The remains from the crash site were sparse, although what appeared to be the remains of a hand was found, and a few scientists needed a subject to test their new DNA theory on, a few live cells were all that they needed. The lead scientist rushed towards the lab hurriedly with a newer scientist tried his best to follow.
"Are you sure it's enough?" The younger of the two asked. The other laughed jovially.
"The human DNA chain contains forty mamo groups, which is more than enough for any species to perpetuate itself. This one has two hundred thousand mamo groups." He answered. The younger scientist rose an eyebrow.
"Sounds like a freak of nature to me". He said as they neared the entrance to the lab.
"Yeah...can't wait to meet him." The scientists within the lab were buzzing about excitedly preparing the regeneration chamber for operation.
"Are you sure it's safe?" The younger scientist quizzed one last time. The other smirked.
"The cell is...for lack of a better word...perfect." One of the assistants placed the remains of the being inside of the chamber, then pushed a button making a thick glass shield close shut. The lead scientist ordered the start of the regeneration.
First a skeleton was made from the remains of the hand and was continued forming until a regular human skeleton was finally created. Muscle tissue was strewn perfectly upon the skeleton, so the human shape took form.
"Close the protection shield", the lead scientist ordered. A thick sheet of metal spread across the glass shield, so no one could now see the human figure. Ultra-violet rays were shone to force the form to grow a protective layer of skin. Within a matter of seconds the complicated process was complete. The scientist ordered the metal shield to be removed. A chorus of gasps rang out at the sight of not a man, but of a young woman with a perfectly shaped body and long silver tresses flowing about her. On her forehead was etched a silver marking in the shape of an eight-point star. "Perfect..." the scientist mumbled out loud. "Thermo bandages". Thin bandages spread out across the woman over her breasts, stomach, hips (like underwear there) and two on her thighs. One large bandage came from her neck and ran down to connect to the bandage at her hips. With a bright flash of light the being was shocked into life.
The woman woke with a violent start, her blue-crystalline eyes flashing wildly. She flailed about inside of the chamber, banging against the interior dome until she curled up in the corner, exhausted. She noticed slight activity on the other side of her, she reached up and pawed at the glass noticing she was trapped inside.
"Dii penates, Tempus, Patres dirigo. Dum vivimus vivamus!" She yelled out. The scientists were confused immediately.
"Does anyone understand?" One asked, no one knew what she was speaking.
"Ense petit placidam sub liberate quietem!" She stopped talking when she noticed it was useless. She watched as one of the scientists approached her on the other side of the glass shield.
"If you want out, you'll have to tell me so in English". He stated, knowing confidently that the chamber walls were unbreakable. The woman began growling in annoyance and eyed the scientist for a few seconds before punching through the glass, grabbing his lab coat collar and jerking him forward, his head hitting the glass, knocking him out. She pushed the button on the control panel, freeing herself. One of the scientists sounded the alarm, as the woman dove through the room's wall out into the neighboring hallway. She took in her surroundings quickly and made a mad dash down the hallway, her silver hair flying wildly in the wind.
****
Heero had easily stolen the files from the lab's main computer system, he had slipped in just as easily, considering no one occupied the room at that point. He had planted explosives around the outskirts of the building, the detonation switch resting beside the keyboard he was now using. Satisfied, he picked it up and left the room, making his way down the hallway towards the exits, ignoring the alarms that had just sounded. He could hear the rustling of several feet and the growing noise of people, Heero looked over his shoulder and stopped but was brought back to reality when something collided with him.
The figure fell to the ground from the force of impact. Heero looked down into the silvery-blue eyes of the most exotic creature he had ever seen. The woman waited a few moments before deciding Heero was someone she could use for help.
"Hoc volo, sic iubeo, sit pro ratione voluntas, incidis in scyllam cupiens vitare charybdim!" She spoke rapidly, as he watched on confused, he noticed how she kept pointing to the mark on her forehead.
They were interrupted by the sound of angry voices. Heero again looked over his shoulder towards approaching security guards...he had to get out of there and destroy the place.
The woman became extremely frustrated as she tried to remember the sound of the words the frantic scientists used.
"P....pl...pleassseee....helllp..." she slurred out, gaining Heero's attention again, as far as he was concerned he should leave her there and run for it, but something about her innocent aura stopped him from doing so, it was almost like she was the girl from his nightmares...
He motioned for her to follow as he began running down the hallway looking for an escape route. The woman had no trouble following him, her long legs giving her good, long strides. She pointed to a screen in the roof up ahead of them, Heero noticed it, and pulled out his gun, shooting at the bolts holding it shut. The screen fell with a large bang on the floor. The woman jumped up and grabbed the edges, hauling herself into the vent, Heero followed closely behind.
The duo quickly made their way down the vent to as far as they could go, until they reached an opening, Heero stopped the silver-haired woman so he could examine how far of a jump it was. Luckily it was on the sea-side, so they would had a relatively 'soft' landing. He grabbed the woman's wrist as he and her leapt from the opening down to the cold depths below. Seconds before they hit the water, Heero pushed the detonation button, as the building burst into a large ball of flames.
Two sopping wet figures lay on the warm sand beneath them quietly, until Heero forced himself to stand up.
"Let's go." He ordered the woman, who did not move, her body shaking from being wet. Heero shook her arm until she opened her eyes and looked up at him.
"Priest..." She mumbled, then she passed out from exhaustion. Heero lifted her limp form into his arms as he made his way around the rubble towards what was left of the parking lot. He opened the door of an empty pick-up truck and slid the woman's figure inside, until he had enough room to slide in behind the wheel. Who ever the vehicle belonged to didn't likely need it anymore.
****
Heero kicked down the door to his apartment, and moved inside lying the limp figure in his arms down on the single old couch in the room. He sat down on the edge of the couch and leaned over her, trying to study her features better. Gently he brushed his finger tips over he forehead to brush aside her sliver bangs revealing the mark on her forehead. This seemed to have affected her, for her eyes shot open and with quick speed she had his gun in her hand and pushed him back using the barrel of the gun. He backed up holding his hands up as she stood from her previous position cursing at him in her strange language. Normally Heero would have dodged fro the gun and shot the intruder, but instincts told him this was no ordinary woman. He'd have to try another method.
"Who are you?" He asked, receiving a blank look in reply, he placed one of his hands on his chest, "Heero Yuy". He said, again not receiving an answer. He held out his hand towards her indicating his desire for an answer.
"Usagi in aeternum lux in esse et veritas magister artium"." Heero smirked at his success, but he didn't want to remember that whole name.
"Is there a shorter version?" He inquired, using both of his hands to illustrate what he meant, by bringing in his hands together.
"Like Heero?" He said, again holding a hand to his chest, hoping she'd understand.
"Usagi", she replied quickly.
"Usagi", he repeated, crossing his arms over his chest in satisfaction. A half-smile twitched on Usagi's lips. They were interrupted by the barging in of Duo Maxwell, he was studying the broken door. on the floor.
"Interesting interior decorating methods", he complimented, brushing his braid back out of his way, then he looked up and immediately forgot to breathe. "Holy babe-alert!" He squeaked.
Usagi looked towards the new arrival and breathed a sigh of relief, lowering the gun a bit, but still keeping her finger on the trigger. She rushed towards the braided piolet.
"Priest!" She chirped, "magna cum laude!" Duo held up his hands in protest.
"Sorry honey, I 'ain't no priest, but I really wish I was who you want right now." Duo walked towards Heero, who's prussian blue eyes were set in a scowl. "What's the deal with the babe, Hee-man?"
"I don't know, she was trying to escape the lab I was in, so I brought her here". Duo digested what little information he was given and looked towards a now flustered Usagi.
"I remember seeing that marking before, but I don't remember where, I say we take her to Quatre's and get her in some clothing....not that I mind how she's dressed right now or anything..." He grinned sheepishly towards the skimpily-clad woman.
"Hn..." Heero replied and picked up a jacket from the floor tossing it to Duo who slipped it on a grateful Usagi who lowered the gun, but wouldn't let go of it, she followed along with the two piolets out the doorway.
"By the way, how'd you get the truck?" Duo asked, curiously.
"The owner didn't need it any more." Heero replied.

"I remember seeing that marking before, but I don't remember where, I say we take her to Quatre's and get her in some clothing....not that I mind how she's dressed right now or anything..." He grinned sheepishly towards the skimpily-clad woman.
"Hn..." Heero replied and picked up a jacket from the floor tossing it to Duo who slipped it on a grateful Usagi who lowered the gun, but wouldn't let go of it, she followed along with the two piolets out the doorway.
"By the way, how'd you get the truck?" Duo asked, curiously.
"The owner didn't need it any more." Heero replied.
