****Disclaimer: I don't own 'em
****Author's Note: Arigatou too all those who reviewed! I wasn't being serious about the limit thing, I just wanted to see what kind of reaction I'd get. It came close...although I know way more people read than reviewed. Anyways, Moon, you've already guessed one of the upcoming characters, I had known he would be the 'priest' right from when I watched the movie and put it in Gundam Wing-verse. Also, Chibi Halo is so smart ^-^, she is right about Tempus being Setsuna. For useless facts, 'Tempus' is Latin for 'Time'. Also, keep in mind I'm not staying true to the movie for everything, mainly because the outer elements are the senshi, instead of stones, there won't be a Phlostin Paradise scene, but I will have some of those occurrences, but I don't want to spoil. Enjoy!
Ja Ne!

Not too long after the trio started heading for Quatre's mansion (one of many), Duo had been busy on his cell phone contacting the other gundam pilots and requesting Quatre find some female clothing as well, as Quatre, having twenty nine sisters, was more likely able to pick something out better than anyone else.
"I'd get you some stuff to wear myself, honey, but I'm not sure I should leave you alone with Mr. Perfect Soldier here". Duo explained to the curious Usagi, who's eyes were sparkling wildly at all the new things she was learning about.
"Hn." Heero 'said' in response to the insult, but really not bothered by the loud talking of the braided piolet. He watched out the window, staring at nothing in particular, as Duo drove quickly to their destination, with the wheel in one hand and the phone in the other. Usagi sat comfortably in between the two pilots chattering away in her unknown language.
As soon as they reached the gate to the mansion they could spot Quatre waiting patiently outside for them. Duo pulled up to the front of the residence and quickly turned off the truck, and opened the door with quickness, taking Usagi's hand and pulling her outside with him, racing towards the shy blond. Heero calmly took his time and approached the group, staying silent as Duo relayed Heero and Usagi's little adventure up until the point where he came into the picture. Usagi still held the gun tightly within her grip as she spoke what little English she knew.
"Me, Usagi, him, Heero, and him Duo...what you?" She asked choppily. Quatre allowed a slight blush at her straight forwardness, and the way she composed herself...with absolutely no modesty whatsoever.
"Pleased to meet you, Miss Usagi, my name's Quatre Rabarbera Winner." He gave her a small bow, Usagi giggled joyously.
"Big..." She said. Quatre motioned for the group to enter, as they were led into the main hallway, a few servants stood at the foot of the stairs awaiting instructions.
"I'll have Miss Usagi get taken to be cleaned up and properly dressed, then we can go into the study to talk." Quatre went to take the gun from Usagi's grip, but she narrowed her eyes and refused to let go. "Miss Usagi, you don't need that now, when you have all of us", he said, indicating the other two as well. She cocked her head to the side and hesitated, but smiled and nodded, handing the blond the gun, who in turn handed it back to Heero, the rightful owner.
"Ok", she said, and was escorted by the servants up stairs.
"Well, she'll be a while", Quatre said, "shall we go to the study?" The others followed, Duo babbling excitedly, and Heero remaining silent.
****
Usagi watched on completely curious as the servants cut away the bandage wraps on her body, pushed her into a very hot bath (AN: Don't worry, they're all female), and scrubbed all of the dirt from her body. She giggled while playing with bubbles, and tried to eat some of them, but she was stopped by an older servant woman. After she was scrubbed clean, making her pale skin seem like milk, except her rosy cheeks, they bustled her into another room to dry her off and clothe her.
As she clung tightly to her towel, her teeth chattering noisily, it took two servants to brush out her tangled silver locks. But when they finally finished, needless to say she was quite a sight.
For clothing she put on metallic gold tight pants, the black seams being on the outside. She also pulled on a white baby-t that showed her smooth, tight midriff. She slipped on black combat boots, that laced up over her ankles. And to finish the outfit she slid on an orange, elastic suspenders that went from her shoulders and connected down at her hips (AN: what Leeloo wears in the movie). She looked at herself in the mirror and smiled happily. The servants made an exit out of the room to leave her to herself.
"Tankyouuuu!!!" She called out after them. Satisfied with her appearance, she headed out the door and tried to retrace her steps to make it downstairs to her male companions.
****
Quatre, Heero, and Duo awaited the arrival of the other two piolets as they sat, Quatre sipping at some tea, and Duo gulping down a soda pop. They could hear Usagi jabbering away in her language, her voice getting significantly louder with each word.
"In here, honey!" Duo called out, they were greeted by the silver-haired woman rushing into the room, she abruptly stopped, her silver hair whipping about her. "Whoa...talk about gorgeous!" Duo complimented, standing up and approaching Usagi. He carefully examined each detail about her, "Quatre, either you've got good taste in clothing, or she'd look good in anything." He stated. Quatre looked towards the two thoughtfully.
"I'm sure it's the latter, you look quite nice, Miss Usagi." Quatre complimented. She giggled and gave a smile.
Just then a servant made their way to the door, "Master Quatre, there are two guests at the door, requesting your presence."
"Send them in", Quatre answered, motioning for his companions to follow him out of the room.
Quatre took Usagi gently by the arm and sat her down at a computer, the screen displaying the English alphabet. "Why don't you look this program over, and see if you can learn anything new", he suggested, Usagi studied silently for a moment before a grin spread across her features.
"Ok!" She readily agreed, the three piolets exiting the room out towards the new guests.
As soon as Quatre closed the door, she was left alone to dive into the computer program. She pressed the 'a' button and watched as words scrolled rapidly down the screen. She watched with ease, learning each word with a fluency. She was so engrossed in her studies, that she didn't notice the five boys enter in and watch her, quietly talking amongst themselves.
"I say we take her to headquarters...let Dr. J take a look at her." Duo suggested, receiving an agreeing nod from Quatre.
"Good idea, but we'll leave her be for a few minutes, give her a chance to use that program...it's so odd how she can speed through it like that, I'm wondering if she's even human." The comment from Quatre made Heero regard the disk within his possession. Perhaps this girl was the experiment that was so top secret. He'd soon find out, when they would get to headquarters.
****
The group entered the building and looked around for any sign of scientists being there. Their attention was drawn by the sound of several voices, a couple were strangely female, but in English none-the less. They entered the main room where Dr. J ended up bing in along with other scientists moving about the room. Dr. J was seated across from the two females that had been heard.
"Whoa...more babes", Duo mumbled. Dr. J looked up at the new arrivals and rose an eyebrow.
"Who is the girl?" He asked. Heero tossed the disk he had onto the table in front of J and brushed back Usagi's bangs indicating the marking. Dr. J recognized it as well as the women.
"The Fifth Element!" Tempus stood from her seated psoition and handed her staff to Patres. She approached the silver-haired woman and gripped her arms. "Cras amet qui nunquam amavit, quique amavit, cras amet", she spoke the same unknown language. Usagi grinned from ear to ear. She replied telling Tempus what had happened to her and how she came to be where she was now. Several gasps were sounded by Patres as Tempus listened intently to their charge. Dr. J approached the piolets to explain what was going on, judging from the confused look on Duo's face indicated they'd want to know.
"What's with the weird language?" He asked. Dr. J narrowed his eyes, annoyed,
"It's not 'weird', it's the divine language, the ancient language, spoken throughout the universe, before time was time." The guys found some place to sit and listened closely as Dr. J babbled quickly about who the strangers were.
"These two are the ancient guardians of the elements..." he was interrupted sharply,
"For being ancient, they must use a lot of moisturizer." Duo complimented receiving a glare from Heero, Duo shut his mouth quickly and returned his attention back to J.
"As I was saying, once every five thousand years a great evil comes to destroy the Earth, but a weapon of light forces it back, to protect life. In a short amount of time this evil will come to destroy us, but these guardians have returned with the elements to be ready."
"Hey, I thought I recognized Usagi's marking. The church where I grew up had a book with that legend in it, but I guess it's really real." J nodded vigorously and continued.
"Since the priest that was chosen, Father Maxwell, was killed, the guardians came to me, knowing I'm fighting against Oz. It seems that Trieze Khushrenada had attacked their space ship and stole the four outer elements and destroying the fifth element..."
****
Trieze made his way down the hall towards the docking hanger excitedly as the mobile suits with the four elements were brought back. he approached the soldiers rapidly, the spectating ones spreading out away from the commotion.
"Where are they?" He commanded. Four young women were forced forward, all talking in a foreign language. Trieze smirked in triumph, but frowned again when he noticed something was wrong. The soldiers holding the women captive paled at this significantly. Trieze reached for the tattered sleeve of the blond-haired woman and tore it easily off. "This isn't one of them". He stated angrily, he repeated the process with the other three, only two had the element marking on their arm, Fire, and Earth. The other two must have only been guardians. Trieze seethed in anger and motioned fro the women to be taken away. "Lock them up." The soldiers complied to his wishes without hesitation as Trieze stalked back to his office.
Zechs was waiting patiently back in the office, for Trieze's return, when he heard the door being kicked open, he jumped slightly surprised.
"They didn't have all of the right ones", he explained angrily, "I want you to find out where the other two are and get them to me as soon as possible." He ordered. Zechs got up from his seat and nodded his head.
"I'll see what I can do". He answered back, heading out the door, he figured if anyone would know where they were, Queen Relena would, someone who was closer to him then anyone knew....
****
"...the guardians decided it would be safer to separate the elements so they dropped two of them off on a relatively peaceful colony in the care of someone they could trust, before they reached the Earth's atmosphere. Trieze has Fire and Earth out of the elements and the guardians Atticum and Amor." Dr. J finished watching Tempus sit Usagi down in between herself and Patres.
"What's the deal with Usagi?" Duo inquired. Dr. J gave Usagi a little smile, which was returned.
"Usagi is the fifth element, a perfect being, who is mankind's most precious possession." Duo grinned goofily at the sound of that.
"Think she'd be my girlfriend?" He asked, Heero glared at his companion again who held up his hands in surrender, "ok, ok".
"What happens now?" Quatre asked.
"First of all, I'll send a couple of you to the colony to retrieve the two elements, and bring them back here." By this time Tempus had handed Usagi a laptop to research with and she approached Dr. J calmly.
"I will send Patres along, to make sure nothing goes wrong."
"That's not necessary, these boys can handle pretty much anything." Dr. J answered.
"Would it not look suspicious with these humans being by themselves after the elements?" Tempus accused, she brushed a lock of dark green hair from her face.
"Let's discuss this elsewhere", J suggested, taking Tempus by the arm and taking her into a separate room. The piolets looked amongst themselves, Duo eyed Patres who kept perfectly still, her cold purple eyes not focusing on anything particular. Duo got up from his seated position and walked towards Patres, she never shifted her gaze.
"Hey beautiful, would you like to go on a date with me, tonight?" He smirked when she looked up at him.
"Plures crapula quam gladus?" Patres requested, Usagi looked up from her laptop, her eyes wide.
"No you not do!" She said, Patres turned her head towards the silver-haired girl.
"Potius mori quam foedare!" Patres insisted. Usagi stifled a laugh at her guardian being so heated up.
"He always like that, no worry". Usagi replied, leaving a very confused Duo to wonder what they were ssaying.
"Maxwell, stop pestering those women", Wufei called out, Duo sighed in defeat.
"But I wanna know if she said yes or not", Duo whined.
"She say she want kill you". Nobody speak to Patres and live, unless guardian or element. You no either". Duo's face paled whiter than Usagi who was giggling. He turned around and headed back to his seat, disappointed. Usagi sat her laptop down and sighed, restless. "Me want eat", she said, pouting towards the boys. "Duo want eat too?" This seemed to perk the braided-piolet up.
"Duo does want eat too", he repeated agreeably, he walked to Usagi, and took her arm, leading her towards the door. Patres' expression turned to a scowl as she set down Tempus' staff and leapt towards Duo, knocking him down, and putting the edge of her glaive on his neck.
"Ira furor brevis est!" She cursed. Usagi lifted the glaive from Duo's neck and helped him up.
"Patres need trust Duo". Patres only growled, "Duo get Usagi food", Usagi finished. Quatre stood up.
"I'll get some food for everyone." He offered, and made a hasty exit. Usagi smiled sheepishly at Duo, who smiled brightly.
"She loves me already", he concluded, "by the way, Usagi-honey, what does 'Patres' mean?" He asked.
"Death", she answered, smiling innocently.
"Well that explains a lot". By the time everyone was seated again, Dr. J and Tempus re-entered the room, everyone awaited from their instructions patiently.
"The one who's taking care of Water and Air is a diva, she'll be singing in a concert at Colony L7, she is also Japanese, (AN: no aliens this fic, gomen), so for that reason I'm sending Heero." Dr. J explained, "however Usagi is the only one the elements will fully trust, because of a special link they share".
"What does that mean?" Heero requested coldly.
"That means Usagi will accompany you...as your wife." Several jaws dropped simotaniously at that, "it will be less suspicious that way, you can be sure the place will be crawling with Oz soldiers". Dr. J explained. Duo stuck out his lower lip in protest.
"Why does Hee-man get all the girls?" He whined, Wufei smacked Duo upside the head.
"Shut up Maxwell!" Dr. J stepped in to continue speaking.
"We've also decided to send Patres for safety reasons, and she will pose as Duo's wife." Duo's whole face lit up at this.
"Oh baby!" He called out, jumping up and down excitedly, he stopped and hugged Wufei, "I'm the luckiest guy in the world!" He swooned, Wufei pushed Duo off of him and pulled out his katana, and started chasing Duo around the room.
"Die Maxwell!" Wufei seethed, Duo kept hold on his braid protectively as he ran. Usagi became alarmed at Wufei's cursing, she started to growl and as the patrons of the chase came near, Usagi put out her foot, tripping Wufei, she took the katana from him and held it at his neck. She cocked her head to the side.
"Wufei no kill Duo". Duo pulled Usagi back from his assailant.
"No, Honey, he wasn't going to, it was just teasing." Usagi lowered the katana.
"Teasing", she repeated.
"That's right".
"Teasing", she repeated again, giving the katana back to Wufei, who backed away from Usagi cautiously.
"What does she need Yuy for?" Wufei asked using a sarcastic tone. Their thoughts were interrupted by the sound of Quatre returning with food. Usagi and Duo started to drool in anticipation. They wasted no time and immediately dug in, devouring all the goodies.
"So much for that", Quatre commented thoughtfully, Dr. J announced his leaving quickly, saying he needed some time to prepare the necessary identification.
"Wait a second, what was the importance of the DNA research?" Tempus stood in to answer that one.
"Those who discover our secret and are not allowed, must die". The piolets all understood quickly.
****
Zechs Marquise arrived to the Cinq Kingdom without much trouble. People knew him from reputation only, but no one stopped him from being granted an audience with Queen Relena Peacecraft.
Relena sat comfortably in her desk chair, her guest was being sent up to see her, and an Oz member, nonetheless, but she would show no fear. Zechs arrived promptly at her door and knocked lightly.
"Come in", she answered, the door opened quietly as Zechs entered and closed the door behind him. "What can I do for you?" She asked.
"Where are the elements?" He asked sharply. Relena became filled with confusion.
"The what?"
"The elements, where are they?" Zechs was becoming quite annoyed.
"I don't have any clue as to what you're talking about". Relena stood from her seat and narrowed her eyes menacingly, "you better start making sense." Zechs laughed at her futile attempts at trying to be intimidating.
"If you won't tell me, maybe you'd tell Trieze." Relena was about to scream, but Zechs quickly made it over to her and covered her mouth. She struggled, but her attempts proved to be no good.
All of a sudden explosions were heard in the distance as Oz mobile dolls attacked the Cinq Kingdom. Several soldiers made their way to Relena's office, but found it to be empty. Queen Relena was kidnaped.
****
Trieze sat in his office tapping his fingers unconsciously on the desk. He had found out seconds before that Zechs had Queen Rlena in his possession. His smile vanished as the sound of his phone rang, hesitantly he picked it up, and slowly brought it to his ear.
"Hello?" Trieze said.
"It's Shadow here, am I disturbing you?" The voice was eerie and cold, and very deep. Trieze began stuttering out of complete fear.
"No...no....where are you?"
"Not far now."
"Good...good." Trieze felt a bead of sweat trickle down his forehead.
"How are the elements?"
"Fine, just fine, I'll have them all shortly. It wasn't easy...my costs have tripled..."
"Money is of no importance...I want the elements".
"I'll see to it personally", his voice became noticeably quieter.
"I will be upon you soon". With that the connection was cut. The dark planet froze all surface activity when the radio waves it sent, ceased. The Trieze set down the phone, and wiped the sweat from his forehead. He would send Zechs to Colony L7, apparently a guard overheard that being said by one of the guardians in their possession. Trieze was sure the missing elements had something to do with the Preventers, and wherever Queen Relena was, the Gundam Piolets would follow...

Zechs was waiting patiently back in the office, for Trieze's return, when he heard the door being kicked open, he jumped slightly surprised.
"They didn't have all of the right ones", he explained angrily, "I want you to find out where the other two are and get them to me as soon as possible." He ordered. Zechs got up from his seat and nodded his head.

"Potius mori quam foedare!" Patres insisted. Usagi stifled a laugh at her guardian being so heated up.
"He always like that, no worry". Usagi replied, leaving a very confused Duo to wonder what they were ssaying.
"Maxwell, stop pestering those women", Wufei called out, Duo sighed in defeat.
"But I wanna know if she said yes or not", Duo whined.
"She say she want kill you". Nobody speak to Patres and live, unless guardian or element. You no either". Duo's face paled whiter than Usagi who was giggling. He turned around and headed back to his seat, disappointed. Usagi sat her laptop down and sighed, restless. "Me want eat", she said, pouting towards the boys. "Duo want eat too?" This seemed to perk the braided-piolet up.
"Duo does want eat too", he repeated agreeably, he walked to Usagi, and took her arm, leading her towards the door. Patres' expression turned to a scowl as she set down Tempus' staff and leapt towards Duo, knocking him down, and putting the edge of her glaive on his neck.
"Ira furor brevis est!" She cursed. Usagi lifted the glaive from Duo's neck and helped him up.
"Patres need trust Duo". Patres only growled, "Duo get Usagi food", Usagi finished. Quatre stood up.
"I'll get some food for everyone." He offered, and made a hasty exit. Usagi smiled sheepishly at Duo, who smiled brightly.
"She loves me already", he concluded, "by the way, Usagi-honey, what does 'Patres' mean?" He asked.
"Death", she answered, smiling innocently.
"Well that explains a lot". By the time everyone was seated again, Dr. J and Tempus re-entered the room, everyone awaited from their instructions patiently.
"The one who's taking care of Water and Air is a diva, she'll be singing in a concert at Colony L7, she is also Japanese, (AN: no aliens this fic, gomen), so for that reason I'm sending Heero." Dr. J explained, "however Usagi is the only one the elements will fully trust, because of a special link they share".
"What does that mean?" Heero requested coldly.
"That means Usagi will accompany you...as your wife." Several jaws dropped simotaniously at that, "it will be less suspicious that way, you can be sure the place will be crawling with Oz soldiers". Dr. J explained. Duo stuck out his lower lip in protest.
"Why does Hee-man get all the girls?" He whined, Wufei smacked Duo upside the head.
"Shut up Maxwell!" Dr. J stepped in to continue speaking.
"We've also decided to send Patres for safety reasons, and she will pose as Duo's wife." Duo's whole face lit up at this.
"Oh baby!" He called out, jumping up and down excitedly, he stopped and hugged Wufei, "I'm the luckiest guy in the world!" He swooned, Wufei pushed Duo off of him and pulled out his katana, and started chasing Duo around the room.
"Die Maxwell!" Wufei seethed, Duo kept hold on his braid protectively as he ran. Usagi became alarmed at Wufei's cursing, she started to growl and as the patrons of the chase came near, Usagi put out her foot, tripping Wufei, she took the katana from him and held it at his neck. She cocked her head to the side.
"Wufei no kill Duo". Duo pulled Usagi back from his assailant.
"No, Honey, he wasn't going to, it was just teasing." Usagi lowered the katana.
"Teasing", she repeated.
"That's right".
"Teasing", she repeated again, giving the katana back to Wufei, who backed away from Usagi cautiously.
"What does she need Yuy for?" Wufei asked using a sarcastic tone. Their thoughts were interrupted by the sound of Quatre returning with food. Usagi and Duo started to drool in anticipation. They wasted no time and immediately dug in, devouring all the goodies.
"So much for that", Quatre commented thoughtfully, Dr. J announced his leaving quickly, saying he needed some time to prepare the necessary identification.
"Wait a second, what was the importance of the DNA research?" Tempus stood in to answer that one.
"Those who discover our secret and are not allowed, must die". The piolets all understood quickly.

Zechs Marquise arrived to the Cinq Kingdom without much trouble. People knew him from reputation only, but no one stopped him from being granted an audience with Queen Relena Peacecraft.
Relena sat comfortably in her desk chair, her guest was being sent up to see her, and an Oz member, nonetheless, but she would show no fear. Zechs arrived promptly at her door and knocked lightly.
"Come in", she answered, the door opened quietly as Zechs entered and closed the door behind him. "What can I do for you?" She asked.
"Where are the elements?" He asked sharply. Relena became filled with confusion.
"The what?"
"The elements, where are they?" Zechs was becoming quite annoyed.
"I don't have any clue as to what you're talking about". Relena stood from her seat and narrowed her eyes menacingly, "you better start making sense." Zechs laughed at her futile attempts at trying to be intimidating.
"If you won't tell me, maybe you'd tell Trieze." Relena was about to scream, but Zechs quickly made it over to her and covered her mouth. She struggled, but her attempts proved to be no good.
All of a sudden explosions were heard in the distance as Oz mobile dolls attacked the Cinq Kingdom. Several soldiers made their way to Relena's office, but found it to be empty. Queen Relena was kidnaped.

Trieze sat in his office tapping his fingers unconsciously on the desk. He had found out seconds before that Zechs had Queen Rlena in his possession. His smile vanished as the sound of his phone rang, hesitantly he picked it up, and slowly brought it to his ear.
"Hello?" Trieze said.
"It's Shadow here, am I disturbing you?" The voice was eerie and cold, and very deep. Trieze began stuttering out of complete fear.
"No...no....where are you?"
"Not far now."
"Good...good." Trieze felt a bead of sweat trickle down his forehead.
"How are the elements?"
"Fine, just fine, I'll have them all shortly. It wasn't easy...my costs have tripled..."
"Money is of no importance...I want the elements".
"I'll see to it personally", his voice became noticeably quieter.
"I will be upon you soon". With that the connection was cut. The dark planet froze all surface activity when the radio waves it sent, ceased. The Trieze set down the phone, and wiped the sweat from his forehead. He would send Zechs to Colony L7, apparently a guard overheard that being said by one of the guardians in their possession. Trieze was sure the missing elements had something to do with the Preventers, and wherever Queen Relena was, the Gundam Piolets would follow...
