Disclaimer:if I owned Gundam, I could've bought a new computer instead of waiting three months for a new hard drive and net service…this is a filler fic. 

Duo gets a Strat

            It was a Monday.  A cold, wet…wait, this is summer.  A hot, muggy, humid Monday.  Duo was sitting at Quatre's computer, looking at some blueprints for a some new weapons, when the CPU started clicking incessently.  Duo turned up Black Sabbath to drown it out, but then, it happened.  The computer died.  Not froze, died.  The screen went dead.  Duo stared blankly at the screen, wondering what happened.

@@@

            It had been two weeks since the crash.  Summer was just starting, and Duo was bored.  Quatre had done all he could to get the computer fixed, but nothing worked.  He would've just gone out and got another one, but the one he used was a HUGE supercomputer, which would've taken months to get, and he had other things to do.  Since this is a fic, the perfect computer had crashed beyond repair.  Duo had nothing to do.  He decided to go out driving.  He hopped into his '67 Camero and went downtown.

Duo-This is gonna be a sucky summer…I need something to eat up time…

            He saw a MARS and decided to go in.  There were drums, keyboards, violins, and…guitars.  Duo wandered over to the guitar section.

D-These are cool…what do they cost…$250…for a…Stratocaster?  Dumb name…looks cool though…how much do I have?...$1000?!  These must be Quatre's pants…what the hell.

He went to the counter with it.  The guy told him he needed an amp and some wires, a strap, a case, picks…the list went on.  Duo got it all, thogh, since it wasn't his money.

D-I wonder how hard this is to play.

            He packed everything into his car and drove home.

Will Duo learn to play?  Or will the others smash the strat over his head first?  Find out later…
