A light fills a dark interrogation room before a door slams shut. All is dark again, as booted feet move fast across the floor. There is a click before a dull light comes on illuminating and imposing rusting desk. Satisfied Duo sits down at the desk and spreads papers all over the place.
"Ladies, and gentlemen I have to keep this short do to how HIGHLY illegal typing a message on windows 98 is." Duo rolls his eyes. "Man I miss XP's bull shit now. ANYWAYS, Drowning fishy is in need of a beta reader. Yeah man I know, there is a forum for that, but really Drowning Fishy don't want a know it all!"
Duo pauses as he continues. "Okay she could need a know it all. Doing things on her own usually leads to something stupid... ... Like her author name Drowning Fishy." For a moment the ex 02's pilots eyes drift off. "But face it we are picky, we need someone SPECIAL for this mission.
They must know:
A. Just 'cause she said so, doesn't make it so.
B. Will add to the story if she or he feels like it needs something. This by all means should be cleared with Drowning Fishy. However, she will usually will always agree.
C. If you make a super dumb error, she's going to laugh at you, and you are expected not to get insulted. I'm not going to mention names, but one of her old beta's was feeling tired so he or she forgot all the periods, comas and everything else necessary for proper English." Duo's grin widened. "I know if Heero did that I would be laughing my pants off. HELL I'd probably need a new pair of skibbies.
How ever this beta was very much insulted, and sent all her friends to slander her name. This by all means is not Drowning Fishy's first name.
Lastly D. She needs someone who will get back to her QUICKLY. This is the MOST important requirement. Once completeing chapter she wants to get it out fast." Duo looks up from the papers to make eye contact. "Heh, a quick stealthy mission, no matter how messy it comes out, is usually the wisest choice."
And added plus will be AIM, she's RoMayDrako IM her any time if you are interesting. And don't worry. The only thing she is a bitch to, is her muse. I lost count how many times he's been shoved off a cliff for this story.
OH and while I'm at it why she needs it, is because she got fired, started college, lap top blew up, and now is using a computer that would be best left to retirement. She is also slow realeasing this because of two injuries. One was a TOTAL Heero type thing..." Duo shudders. "Seriously how can someone NOT notice they broke a bone. Exspecially their ankle. Truely disturbing man.
NOW HURRY UP AND FIND ME A BETA THE NEXT CHAPTER IS READY! Now man I don't care if you have to kidnap them."
Duo gets up then pauses before he clicks off the light. "For those of you who actually read this, a little added surprise."

Trio lowered her ear close to her cereal bowl. Her face scrunched up as she listened. Sitting up she looked at her father who was slowly and stiffly making his way to the kitchen table. Looking at his daughter with a smile Duo Maxwell set this bowl on the table.
"What is it Trio?"
"Wittle swoldurs fightin' in my cereal." The little girl replied with a sour look. "Wisten."
Suppressing his laughter Duo leaned over and listened. He could hear the snap, crackle and pop from her rice cereal. Messing up Trio's bed head hair he laughed.
"Little soldiers, huh?" The smile was huge across Duo's face.
"Yup!"
Lifting up her spoon he moved it towards her mouth."Quick quell the rebellion."
A giggle came from Trio as she took a bite. Grabbing a soggy dried strawberry she chucked it at the braided haired man's forehead. There it stuck with a loud slapping noise.
"OH NO THEY ATTACKING DADDY!" Trio yelled with a cereal still in her mouth.
Not missing a beat Duo 'fell' to the floor. "OH NO THEY GOT ME! AUG, Trio avenge daddies death." Then Duo 'died'.
Laughter irrupted from Trio as she began to shovel cereal into her mouth.
This short intermission FAN fic was brought to you by the makers of Gundam Wing, and Rice Krispies Cereal with strawberries, neither of which I own.
