I DON'T OWN THESE CHARACTERS, OR MANY OF THE IDEAS AND ITEMS.

I DO OWN THE STORY LINE IT IS A FIGMENT OF MY TWISTED IMAGINATION ;) PLESE DON'T SUE.


Ancient Egyptian: Aloha


It had been a week since Duo had returned home. He was revelling in the freedom and being around his family. Yet the Goa'uld was a constant threat looming on the horizon.

Duo was relaxing on the balcony of the eternal palace with Jei, Kura, Ko and Rama. As usual they were having a lively 'debate'.

"I didn't tell them I was coming here, I must have been spotted I thought Ko and Rama expelled all the spies" Duo indignantly exclaimed

"Calm down Shini, we can meet them at the port and then bring them to meet grandda, he said he would explain. It's not like the sphere rules apply here. After all Thebes is light years away." Jei giggled.

"Yeh Cuz, least this way we get to meet your friends." Kurama said.

Saku bounced into the room and sat on Koroune's lap.

With a laugh he hugged her close. "hey chibi, who gave you sugar?"

Saku giggled "Izanami (1) did. Which of your friends are we gunna meet tomorrow Duo?"

"Well, Heero, Trowa, Quatre, Wufei ,Dorothy and Zechs are coming tomorrow. When they leave the shuttle port we're gunna meet em. I'm in so much trouble." Duo groaned.

Jei smirked as she said "Ooh that's right Heero's your boyfriend isn't he? You're in deep shit bro."

Sakura began to giggle infectiously; soon they were all laughing with her.

"At least I have a love life that lasts longer then a 1 night stand. Ay lil sis" Duo returned with a smirk when the laughter had stopped.

Kura laughed at Jei's fish impression as he reached over and gently closed her mouth "flies, sister o mine flies". Turning to Duo he said "That was a low blow bro, inspired but still, low blow"


Time jump: tomorrow


"Duo, Jei get you're asses down here now. You're late!" Bakura yelled into the entrance hall of the palace.

With a loud crash the two in question skidded into the entrance hall.

Bakura shook his head "get in the car." He exasperatedly ordered

They hurried to comply, running out of the entrance. Turning left when they reached the end of the colonnade. They approached a well guarded gate area with a nod and a yell of "we're late" they swiftly passed through the open door.

Bakura followed a moment later.

Saku jumped up when she saw her brothers and sister "You're late. So don't stop, just get in the van."

Koroune and Kurama laughed from the front seat as the two scrambled to follow the order.

When everyone was seated Ko set of towards the shuttle port at a harrowing pace.

When the shuttle had landed Dorothy turned to the four pilots and Zechs "Show time" she stated with a smirk.

When the six of them disembarked they headed towards the 'upper class' area of the shuttle port.

Quatre and Zechs groaned when they saw the crowd of people waiting to meet them.

Quatre turned to Heero and Wufei uttering "Play nice"

With a grimace they nodded.

Taking a deep breach Zechs opened the door to the inner area of the port.

When they were all inside the manager approached them "Please follow me. After a quick customs check you can begin your visit."

They followed the man until they reached the customs desk.

The guard manning the desk asked "Anything to declare?"

With a smirk Dorothy pulled her preventors badge, the others followed suit.

The guard waved them through.

As they passed through the arch into the main colony area Heero caught a glimpse of two tall men holding strange weapons standing guard in the shadows. Yet when he turned to have a proper look their was no one there.

After they exited the shuttle port the six had look around the square before they were approached by their main L2 contact, a club owner. He went by the name of Feugo.

As he reached them he winced and looked down "You shouldn't have come; not with things the way they are. I'm lucky to still be alive. Your all needed alive otherwise we wouldn't be here."

He looked up across the square. Acknowledging someone or some thing they could not see , he continued "Here come your new escorts I'm sorry things turned out this way and I wish you luck if you can contact me I will relay messages to the Lady; otherwise you're on your own."

With that he turned and walked away.

Heero was already looking across the square his hand on his gun. Seeing no one he tensed even further. Glancing to his left and right he registered that Quatre and Trowa had flanking positions.

Dorothy was at the centre with Zechs and Wufei behind her. Looking around the square she noticed a young girl with bright blue eyes and very dark pink hair she was talking to two teenage boys. One had long black hair with deep purple eyes; the other had long silver hair and haunting silver eyes. Both were tall. What had caught Dorothy's attention was the seemingly relaxed nature of the trio, far too relaxed for L2. Coming over towards the group they moved with a predator's grace.

Tapping Heero on the shoulder she nodded to them with a murmur of "heads up"

All six visitors to L2 turned to look at the trio just as they reached the group.

The young girl smiled innocently saying "come with us…"

Before she could get any further Zechs voiced his unease "why should we?"

The tall dark guy stepped forwards and spoke with an undistinguishable lit to his voice "you wouldn't want Shinigami to get hurt would you? No. well follow us"

With that he turned and began to walk away, his two companions falling into step with him as he passed them.

With an anguished look at his five friends Quatre hurried after them. The others shared a glance, at Zechs nod they also took off after Quatre and the trio.

Hope you liked this instalment.

Yet again I extend an apology to all that read my fic's; I'm sorry I don't update more often. My A levels keep getting in the way of my writing, due to course work.

I hope to break into double figures were my reviews for this fic are concerned, so please help me out. :D Otherwise no update.

Thank you to all my reviewers as I am ecstatic with all feed back especially with the 20 I have for True Colours.
