Shaking Up the NeoJapan Team Chapter 2: Unaware, a g-gundam fanfic

Warning: Extremely goofy flashback below.

Chapter 1: Unaware

Feeling a possessive arm wrapped around her as she awoke in her bedroom which was full of the early, morning sunlight, Rain also began to take in the feel of her husband's muscular, bare chest against her smooth, soft back. Most mornings at this time Domon was usually gone training so it felt nice to have him still there with her. Enjoying his closeness she was about to rest a little longer till the strong arm that was around her squeezed her.

Opening his eyes while pulling the softness he held even closer against him, Domon soon heard his wife whispering good morning to him.

When his arm loosened, she slowly turned around to face the awakening fighter. With a soft smile on her face, her sky, blue eyes greeted his blinking, coffee, brown eyes.

"Morning," he just barely whispered back.

"Sleeping in late today?" she asked softly as her hand found its way to the upper part of his arm just below his shoulder. She loved to let her fingers feel the shape of his muscles there and how the muscles seemed to change shape slightly when he moved his arm, especially during their most intimate moments.

"I take it you're shocked that I'm still here," he said softly as he began to move his hand slowly over her curvy side.

"I'm glad that you're taking a break and actually…you'll be getting another break soon at our next Shuffle reunion,"

"Yeah," he agreed as he suddenly began to remember something from the last reunion.

Flashback to the last Shuffle Alliance Reunion which was two months earlier in Neo-America at Chibodee and Shirley's house:

All of the women who were dear to the strong men of the Shuffle Alliance were off shopping one beautiful, bright day. Both Rain and Shirley had been very pleased at Janet's suggestion that the men stay at Chib and Shirley's place to take care of the two children so that the females could go shopping together. Though the two young mothers could never mind all the time they spend with their child, it was always nice to have some time for themselves.

Because Kohana was older, Rain was less nervous over leaving her than Shirley was over leaving her five month old, baby boy, Chaz. Though Chibodee was a very proud father who was very careful with his son, Shirley always felt better when Chaz was with her rather than with anyone else; like most loving mothers feel at times. However, upon her husband saying he could handle their son, Shirley told herself that she had to let the man in her life know that she trusted him with their child.

As for Rain, the sweet gundam mechanic had always known how lucky she was that her extremely tough husband had a tender side when it came to children, especially with his daughter. In fact he had always shown a nicer side of himself to kids, like when he had met Ming and Hoy. A part of Rain had to wonder if he was the way he was with children because he had missed a good bit of his childhood while being trained by Master Asia.

Now at George's height after growing over the last few years, Sai Saici said in his now deeper voice to the knight, "Since Bro and Chibodee have to baby sit, why don't we shoot some pool?"

Before giving Sai an answer, George thought first. There were many things to do in Chibodee's home considering that the boxer couldn't help but to be a bit of a showoff. Within the huge house was a movie theatre, a huge game room, a gym and even an indoor pool. However, none of it seemed to interest the knight at the moment. "I am sorry, Sai Saici."

"For what?" the youngest fighter asked.

While folding his arms a smirk grew on the knight's face as he watched Domon Kasshu and Chibodee Crocket each holding their child. "I think the most entertaining thing for us to do today is to watch our two fighter friends taking care of their offspring."

Though Chaz wasn't talking at his tender age of five months during this reunion, Kohanna was doing a very good job and proved it to her father as she smiled and said, "Chaz. Daddy, go by Chaz."

"You're right," Sai said to George. "Watching Bro protecting his daughter will be more fun than anything else."

Argo himself had to smile as he watched Domon suddenly carry his daughter in the opposite direction of the other child while saying to Chibodee, "Don't you have to feed Chaz or something?"

Though he still hadn't any hair, Chaz was a beautiful baby with bright, green eyes who almost constantly had a smile on his face. He was big for his age and though the child couldn't walk yet, at this reunion he enjoyed crawling behind Kohana which made her giggle back at him. Because both weren't in normal day care centers it was all new for them to be around a little person close to their age and they were enjoying every second of it.

Suddenly looking fearful of something, Chibodee said, "Oh, no. There's something I should be doing."

Still holding his daughter who was playing with the end of his red sash, Domon asked, "What?"

Because of how sick the boxer looked while not answering, Argo asked, "Chibodee. What's wrong?"

Looking from one friend to the other, old Chib asked, "Don't y'all smell that?"

Beginning to sniff the air, Sai Saici then made a strange face and said, "I think someone's diaper has to be changed."

Now holding his son out as far away from him as possible, the boxer said, "Domon. You change Chaz's diaper."

"What!" Domon expressed. "I'm not changing your kid'sdiaper!"

Even though George knew Chibodee should take care of his own child, the knight found himself saying, "Domon. I'm sure you've changed Kohana's diaper before. Am I correct?"

Not liking the fighter of Neo-France at this moment, the King of Hearts gave him the look of death and said, "Only in extreme, emergency situations have I changed her diaper. Rain does that."

"So you have," the boxer said relieved as he walked towards the leader of the shuffles. "Take Chaz."

Thinking Chibodee had nerve, Domon grunted before saying, "I'm not changing him."

"Oh…come on, Japan," Chibodee pleaded sounding somewhat desperate. "He might be your son-in-law one day."

"Shut-up!" Domon roared back.

Slapping his hands together as he laughed at the two fathers, Sai said, "George. You were so right. There's nothing else I'd rather be doing right now than watching two of the strongest gundam fighters fighting over changing a diaper." As Domon glared back at Sai Saici, he added, "Just kidding, Bro."

Trying to hide his smile, George said, "Chibodee. Chaz is your responsibility."

"I agree," Argo said not hiding his smile.

"Yeah," Domon said while shaking his head in agreement. "He's your responsibility, Chibodee."

"You don't understand," the Neo-American fighter protested. "It's not like I don't know that."

With a questioning look on his face, Argo asked, "So what's wrong?"

"I'll…I'll…get sick," the boxer said almost embarrassed.

"Give me a break," the King of Hearts said as he rolled his eyes. "Change the kid so he doesn't get a rash."

After laughing out loud, Sai Saici said, "This is too funny listening to Bro talking about rashes."

"Shut up, Sai Saici," Domon said bluntly and Kohana repeated Sai's name. Glad that she didn't repeat something else as he looked at his daughter, Domon's eyes widened and soon he was telling her in a soft voice that she should never say shut-up.

Knowing that the Neo-Japan fighter had learned a lot since being a father, George said, "Chibodee. Shirley will become very upset if Chaz gets a rash."

"Damn it," Chibodee said at knowing what he had to do whether he liked it or not.

The other fighters remained silent as he continued to hold a smiling Chaz away from him. Finally the Neo-American fighter began to head to the sofa in the den. Because the Crocket's house was very large, there were many times when Shirley didn't feel like climbing the stairs to the baby's room to use the changing table. For that reason she made sure everything she needed to change a diaper was also in the den.

Once to the big, black, leather sofa, Chibodee sat down and then laid his son on his back on the thick baby blanket which was covering a piece of the sofa.

The other Shuffles looked at each other and couldn't help but smile at what the boxer was attempting to do. Seeing her daddy's smile, even little Kohana had to smile as her hands moved to hold his face. Of course with this action, Domon couldn't help but to kiss his precious daughter on one of her chubby cheeks.

Looking down at his son who was smiling, Chibodee said, "This isn't funny, Chaz. Couldn't you have waited till mommy came home before you made number two?"

As if answering his question, Chaz laughed.

"Ha, ha, very funny, Chaz."

A few seconds later the other shuffles could tell just by the boxer's face alone when he had opened the diaper.

"I'm going to be sick," the boxer suddenly said while standing up. He then looked at his friends and just before covering his mouth, he exclaimed, "Someone come here fast!"

Knowing what the boxer meant, Domon said, "George. Go make sure that Chaz doesn't roll off the sofa."

"Oh, yes. I understand," George said immediately heading to the small boy. And when he made it there, Chibodee took off; hand over mouth for the back door in the kitchen. Somehow he had forgotten about the many bathrooms throughout the house. Moving as fast as he could, he thought, I've got to make it outside! I'm going to be sick!

Sai Saici couldn't help but follow behind as if he would miss something if he didn't.

Within seconds Chibodee felt the very last thing he had eaten rising higher and higher up his throat as he yanked open the backdoor. Though gross, what happened would never be forgotten by any of the Shuffles. The boxer had been so relieved that he made it to the door that he had forgotten all about the beautiful, storm door. Unfortunately, Shirley had forgotten something home so the women had just walked up to see old Chib getting sick right on the once beautiful door.

The youngest fighter had stopped in his tracks and laughed harder than ever when he saw that Chibodee hadn't gotten sick outside where it could have been easily hosed away. Unfortunately what the girls had witnessed had not been a pretty sight.

End of Flashback

"Domon," Rain said once again since her husband obviously hadn't heard her the first time she had said his name.

"Huh…oh. I was just thinking."

Seeing the expression on his face, she said with a smile, "You must have been thinking of something funny."

"More like something disgusting that Chibodee did."

Instantly knowing what that was, Rain said, "Oh please, Domon. You didn't see it the way I did. What a way to be welcomed."

Chuckling a bit, the King of Hearts rolled onto his back. "I can't believe out of all people that Chibodee could get so sick from…"

"I know," Rain said not wanting her husband to go into detail. Rolling onto her stomach as she pushed herself up on her elbows, she added, "I thought Shirley was going to kill him."

"That day was funny," Domon said since George trying to change Chaz was quite humorous as well.

"Anyway," the sweet female at his side said wanting to change the subject, "Since you're taking a break, are you not going to start training Kin today?"

Almost wishing he hadn't suggested the idea, Domon mumbled back, "I might as well start today. The sooner I start the earlier my training with him may end."

Before Rain could question how long that was going to be, a sweet, little voice was heard over the baby monitor in their room. "Mommy! Daddddyyy!" Kohana called out happily.

"It's alive," Domon joked in a way that let Rain know that her busy day as a mother was starting.

Soon the little one could be heard jumping in her bed as she began to laugh while anticipating which one of her parents would show up to take her out of her crib.

Meanwhile in the Neo-Japan government building, Commissioner Karato entered his office to find that his nephew was sitting in a chair in front of the desk obviously waiting for him. "Kin," the Commissioner said making his way behind his desk. Still standing and looking puzzled, he asked, "Why are you here at this time?" Though Kin showed up throughout the day at different times, never had he shown up this early.

Coldly, the young man responded, "Someone should be here concerned about the 14th Gundam fight."

Sitting down behind his desk, the older man said, "If you're referring to Domon Kasshu, I'm sure he's training at this very moment."

Not knowing that Domon did train hard almost every morning, Kin said, "I've told you that he's become too civilized." Looking at the clock on the wall behind his uncle, the hardheaded, young adult then said, "Kasshu's probably home enjoying being a daddy or…making love to his wife as we speak."

"Don't go there," Karato said not wanting to speak of something that was none of their buisness.

With a confused look on his face, Kin focused his eyes on the floor as he said, "I still don't know what Rain Mikamura sees in Kasshu."

Shaking his head as if he couldn't believe that Kin couldn't accept the happily, married Kasshu couple, Karato said, "Rain Kasshu…is very much in love with her husband whether you choose to believe it or not."

Pretending not to have heard his uncle, Kin was still staring down as he said in awe, "She is so beautiful."

"Look at me, Kin. Now," Karato demanded in the most serious voice. Just after Kin lifted his hazel eyes, the commissioner said, "I do not like how you are acting."

"What don't you like?" Kin asked trying to act innocent of having any bad thoughts.

Knowing that his nephew who wore his long, black hair tied back, had always been one the ladies were attracted to, Karato said, "You seem to be acting as if you deserve Rain Kasshu's attention. I'm telling you now that you can forget it so don't even waste your time trying."

For a response, Kin only rolled his eyes.

"I'm dead serious, Kin. Leave her alone. She's totally devoted to her husband, and…if he thought for one second that you are after his wife, he would kill you."

"I am not…after her," the young man said calmly while he thought, However, I wonder if shaking up their marriage would affect Domon as a gundam fighter?

"Just forget about her," Karato said relieved.

"Her?" a serious, deep voice asked.

Turning his head to the door, the commissioner saw none other than Domon Kasshu standing there with one hand in his pocket and the other still on the doorknob. With a forced smile, Karato said, "Uh…I thought you were training. Don't you usually train at this time?"

Walking into the office, the King of Hearts said, "I took a break."

Kin couldn't help but give his uncle an I told you so look.

The commissioner blew it off not wanting to remember Kin expressing that their King of Hearts was becoming too civilized.

Quite interested in something else, Domon smiled at the commissioner and said, "Who do you want your nephew to leave alone?"

"Uh…no one you know," Karato lied as he tried to think of something else to say to change the subject.

"Why?" Kin said to Domon. "Do you have any advice to give me on women?"

Quite liking that Kin valued his opinion, Domon folded his arms and said, "Sorry, Kin. The only advice I could give you is on my wife and that's not going to happen."

Karato fake laughed nervously, then said, "Domon. You obviously came here for a reason."

Nodding his head yes, he answered, "Some of the other officials told me that I would find Kin here." Looking at the young man, Domon asked, "Are you ready to start your training?"

As if thinking about it first, Kin then stood up and said very seriously, "Yes. I've been ready."

Not afraid in the least at how confident Kin sounded over his fighting abilities, Domon said, "Good. Let's go outside and you can show me what you've got without the use of gundams."

"Fine," Kin said planning to memorize all of Domon's moves.

The commissioner watched them leave while a part of him wished that Kin would get some sense knocked into him.

Because of not being in the mood for an audience the King of Hearts lead Kin just outside behind the Neo-Japan warehouse where they wouldn't be seen. The two men had walked in silence except for when Domon had said where they were going. Kin knew he'd have to talk to Domon but decided not to anymore that day till it was absolutely necessary.

Once to their destination, Domon began to take off his red cloak and tan jacket, and soon he was only wearing his dark, green shirt and black pants. As he adjusted his gloves, he said to Kin, "You should be comfortable fighting in that t-shirt."

Looking down, Kin almost wished his t-shirt that was tucked into his black pants wasn't red. The color red only made it harder to see any of Domon Kasshu's blood that might make it there. With a bit of too much confidence, the younger fighter thought his street fighting experiences were all he needed to hurt the King of Hearts while they weren't in gundams.

Upon Kin saying nothing, Domon said with a smirk, "I see you're a man of few words. You sort of remind me of myself when I first became a gundam fighter. But what do you seem so angry about?"

"I'm fine," Kin actually answered not ready to tell Domon what he was thinking. Domon Kasshu, I plan to take your place. You disgraced Neo-Japan by having to be forced to be a gundam fighter, and I don't care what the circumstances were.

"Okay," Domon said becoming serious. "I want to see what you've got first so…you throw all the punches."

Kin gave the King of Hearts an approving smile as he thought, You're going to be sorry after I knock the hell out of you.

Concentrating in a way that Kin didn't understand yet, Domon began to focus on where the younger man planned to strike first.

To Kin's disappointment, each and every time he threw a punch, just like in the gundams the day before, Domon easily dodged away. The last one that Kin threw, Domon caught in his hand, and then said, "That's enough."

Breathing heavy and quite disgusted by just how good the champion was, Kin felt his temper boiling over. Damn it! he thought angrily. I know I can fight well. I guess he isn't the King of Hearts for nothing.

Guessing what the younger man was feeling, Domon said, "Don't get discouraged, Kin. Most of my life I've eaten and breathed fighting. Plus, I'll admit that I felt the power of your punch yesterday."

Shocked that Domon at least admitted that, Kin then realized that it was true that Domon had done nothing but train for years. With this thought Kin knew what he had to do once again. I have to befriend you, Domon, no matter how sick it makes me feel. "Will you help me to become a better fighter in and out of a gundam?" Kin asked.

Glad that the young man was finally speaking, the King of Hearts said with a smile, "I'll teach you a few things. We'll train the hardest the week after next."

"Why then?"

"Next week my wife and I have a Shuffle Alliance reunion in Neo-Russia."

Keeping a straight face, more ideas flooded into Kin's head on how to hurt the current Neo-Japan gundam team. While Mr. and Mrs. Kasshu are off playing with their friends in Neo-Russia, I can snoop around the beautiful Rain's office for ways to destroy their team.

llllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll Later that night in the Kasshu home, Domon had just stepped out of the shower and pulled on a pair of boxer shorts and a white t-shirt. To his disappointment, Rain wasn't in their bedroom like he had hoped when he came out of the Master bathroom. Thinking that perhaps she was still putting Kohana to sleep, he headed to the baby's room only to find the rocking chair empty. Moving to the white crib that sat next to a painted Panda bear on the wall, Domon looked in and sure enough there was his baby daughter, sound asleep. Smiling down at her all tucked in under the yellow blanket, Domon gently placed his hand over her head and whispered, "Your daddy loves you." As he turned to leave the room, he smiled again at seeing the extra small, red cloak hanging on the locker doorknob which his daughter had been wearing for fun earlier that evening.

As he began to head down the stairs, he looked forward to finding his wife. Not surprised where, he found her in her office sitting with her legs crossed as she worked away on her computer.

"This should make it faster," she muttered to herself.

Putting a hand on her shoulder, Domon asked, "Faster?"

So wrapped up in her work, the sweet female jumped in surprise at hearing his voice and feeling his touch. "Domon," she said looking up at him. "I thought you were already in bed."

"I would be if you were there."

"I'm sorry," she said looking back at the computer screen. "Since we'll be in Neo-Russia soon, I just wanted to get some work done."

Knowing how hard she had been working on their gundam and taking care of their child, he said in a low voice, "You need a break, Rain."

Smiling as she continued to give most of her attention to her monitor , she said, "I can't believe that you're the one telling me that I need a break, rather than me telling you."

"So what's faster?" he asked now sounding interested, which made her hope he wouldn't argue with her over her wanting to work a little longer that night.

Typing away on her keys, the Burning gundam's head mechanic said, "Let's just say that I may have found a way to make the Burning finger kick in even faster and possibly with even more power."

Suddenly, Rain felt her body twist as her husband slowly turned her chair towards him, while half of her was still facing her computer. In a serious voice as she felt her boots being gently pulled off, she said, "I guess you can care less about your gundam at the moment."

"Yep," Domon only replied.

Softy she said, "It's just that I really intended to get some more work done tonight, Domon."

Because she didn't physically try to push him away, the King of Hearts decided to convince her that she should finish her work the following day. After uncrossing her legs, he put his hands on her waist, leaned into her, and using a seductive voice he whispered into her ear. "Baby, I really want you."

Finally taking her fingers off the keys, Rain felt a tad frustrated over knowing she wouldn't finish her work that night while much more of her felt quite pleased that her husband often wanted to be with her; that she could make him feel so good. Way back during their first kiss, she had awakened her lover in him, one who desired her greatly. Also, the times that she actually initiated their love making, he never turned her down but rather dropped everything he was doing to be with her.

Looking into her beautiful eyes after she faced him, Domon smiled since she was once again going to give into him. And he was going to make her not regret giving in and she knew it, which made it easy for her to not resist him. He'd never forget the advice Kyoji had given him in a dream on how to 'do things right'. The advice had been that – "During intimate moments with the woman you love, concentrate on how you are making her feel and then you'll be rewarded."

Remembering waking up in her husband's strong arms that morning, Rain's small hands slipped under his short sleeves and wrapped around the upper part of his muscular arms. She was ready to get lost in her fighter who could never seem to get enough of her during their most private moments.

Loving her soft hands on him anywhere, Domon moved his lips over hers and began to kiss her tenderly and after some precious time the kiss turned very passionate.

Also, though Domon never had a problem putting Rain into the mood, she had made a certain promise to herself not long after they had gotten married. She had made this promise very late one night after watching a very romantic movie that her husband had slept through since it wasn't what he considered entertainment. One of the characters in the movie was an older lady who enjoyed talking with her grand-daughter about life. Rain specifically remembered the advice the old lady had offered the day before the grand-daughter was to be married. The advice had been—When a husband is showing sweet signs and actions that he wants to make love to his wife, most times the wife should give in even if she feels she's not in the mood. She should take to heart that he is wanting and needing only his wife. Also—a wife and husband should never go to sleep angry at each other and if an argument cannot be settled before it's time to retire, still sleep in the same bed together.

Now as the married Kasshu couple got deeper and deeper into each other, Rain wrapped herself around her husband as he stood up from the chair holding her and he slowly began walking to the sofa just behind the computer in the small room.

Breaking their kiss because she began to laugh ever so lightly, Rain said, "Once again we can't even make it to our bedroom."

Just barely smiling while shaking his head in agreement, Domon's eyes closed once again as he began kissing his wife while he moved them down onto the sofa.

Luckily Kohana was asleep in her bedroom rather than awake downstairs in the living room facing her mother's office door seeing her parent's clothing flying onto the floor.

The two adults enjoying each other hadn't a clue that in Kin's parent's house, he had just finished doing push ups and was now looking at himself in the mirror and saying to his image, "Hello, Neo-Japan's new Gundam fighter."

Author's note: For those who don't know, 'Do things right' came from my 1st G Gundam fic, "Partners Outside of the Gundam" – Chapter 12: Advice on Woman (At the end of the chapter.) The movie the old lady was in doesn't exist.

Thanks very much to the below for reviewing and here's the answers to your questions:

Goldangel-Yes, you are always a great help-Thanks, KSF! I am more than pleased that you are happy with how I write Domon. And yes, Chibodee and Shirley didn't waste any time getting in the family way-LOL! As for your brilliant stories, I don't know what I want you to update first!

Crystopher- I'm glad you read POofTG and thanks for letting me know that you enjoyed PNIM. I was touched by your review to that. In this story, I'm pretty sure that Kin getting his face smashed in is in the plans. And yes, I agree that Chibodee and Shirley sure did move fast. I thought it would be funny to make the boxer jump into marriage so quickly since I had him in PNIM asking Domon how it felt to be stuck with the same woman day after day-LOL! Also, hopefully in a future fic, I can torture Domon with an older Kohana and Chaz.

Ryan-Yes, Kin needs to realize that the King of Hearts just can't be beaten. You're also right about Kohana already enjoying Chaz's company at reunions-LOL!. It kind of reminds me of Domon and Rain as children.

Black Joker Lady-My husband has two brothers and no sisters. Now that he has two daughters, he's extremely over protective. My oldest is twelve and I think way too young to get a call from a boy. Anyhow, recently one of her friends left a message on our answering machine pretending to be a boy. My husband freaked out to say the least and was relieved to find out that it hadn't really been a boy calling. Also, my father was so over protective that it wasn't funny. I could get away with nothing while living with that man-LOL! I know now that he only wanted the best for me. Oh, and I have an over protective brother as well, besides my husband being over protective!

Jellybean1231-I also have to thank you for such a wonderful, detailed review to PNIM. You hit the nail on the head when you said the fluff started at the end of the G Gundam series. That's why POofTG was so much fun for me to write. I look forward to writing about Kohana and Chaz in their teenage years. And Kin won't be the next King of Hearts.

Lemus-Thanks for your detailed reviews! We'll just have to wait and see what I'll do with Kin-LOL! And yes, the most fluff I've written was in POoTG because they were in that sweet stage when two in love are finally showing each other how they feel. Domon was quite enjoying getting close to a woman, to Rain. Mardi Gras was an absolute ball to write about. Thanks for pointing out what you liked. It meant a lot to me.

MagCat-The idea of Kin just popped into my head like all of my other crazy ideas do. As for Chib's crew, for some reason I could always picture him with Shirley. To me he just seemed closer to her in the series, but I could be wrong. In the future I plan to have fun with having Domon throwing a fit over Kohana and Chaz.

Namaida-Congratulations on ten years! Thanks so much for the excellent you gave me and you enjoy life as well. I hope you find time to continue to update your story.

Angels Warmth-I'm happy that you like Domon already worrying about Kohana and Chaz. And yes, Kin will deserve Domon knocking him out. Thanks for asking about my girls. You would die if you saw how goofy I act with my six year old, and my twelve year old still confides in me—thank Goodness. You can imagine that as much as I say when I write, that she and I get into some deep, long talks. Times are so hard now a days for kids to understand why things are as they are. Again, thanks for asking, I love my girls more than life itself.

Over-dose44-I'm glad that you're liking Domon worrying about his daughter with seven month old Chaz-LOL! Thanks!

Bloodredfangs-I'm still working on Kin and I hope you liked the fluff at the end of the chapter. Thanks!

SocalGirl 5590-Thanks a bunch for letting me know that you are pleased with the story so far. I hope you're still pleased.

Gaiden Blaze-Thanks for reviewing! When I was looking through names for Chibodee's son, I instantly got hooked on Chaz when I saw it. I'm glad you like it. Thanks!

Zora Kasshu-Thanks for reviewing! I'm very, very pleased that you are excited about this story.

Cat & her alter ego Henry-After Chib and Shirley's first date, they just moved full force into the future together-LOL!—Kind of like when Chibodee jumps into a fight too fast. If Kin is brainless enough to hit on Rain and Domon finds out, Kin might have to kiss his life good-bye. Thanks!

Kairiyuna14-Thanks so much for letting me know that you are enjoying my stories. It means a lot to me.

Anime/videogame freak-Thanks for the review! I hope that I can keep writing about my favorite couple for awhile.

Erica6060-Thanks for such a sweet review-really. I loved it. I hope I can keep you enjoying my stories.

Cuz I Can-I'll try to keep writing on Domon and Rain as long as I can. And yes, Domon is going to be very protective with his daughter. I have some good experience to write on the subject. Even though I'm married, my dad is still over protective. Thanks!

Secretperson ShadowLiger-Thanks! I very much hope that I can keep you liking this story!

Starangel100890-You too—never lose the urge to write. It's such a way to relax. And I too still have a lot to learn; believe me. My younger sister was the one to get straight A's in school. I was the one who had to struggle throughout school.

Three evils-Thanks for reviewing! I'm very glad that you let me know that you enjoyed the epilogue.

Rain's Love-Domon's Heart-Wow! Thanks for your extremely kind words! I'm pretty sure the writers of the show would think I am nuts; especially since I don't write enough about gundams-LOL! But really…thanks!

Rising Gundam2004-Wow-Thanks! Like I said before, don't get downbecause you have some very talented writers reviewing your stories. Keep going if you enjoy writing and always try to improve.

Thanks!
