Oh yea um….I haven't gotten any complaints about it yet but I know everyone has their own views on what gender Ashura is….well in this story Ashura is a boy just to fair warn you so please just relax and enjoy the story.

Time had passed since Duo disappeared and the boys were starting to worry, even Heero started to show his concern.

"Try his com link we should be able to reach him through that," said Wufei as Heero tried to locate their missing companion.

"You know if he doesn't want to be found he won't be. He always knew how to disable the trackers on his link and everything else he owns," said Quarter as he drank his tea, his hands shaking slightly in concern and worry for his friend. His blue eyes seemed to go from Heero's laptop to the window to the door every 15 seconds as if waiting for the loud American boy to walk in smiling.

"I'll try his link again but if I don't get in touch well go looking alright," said Heero in a soft monotone voice as he tried to keep his own emotions locked up. He picked up his com link and turned it on.

"02 do you read me 02," said Heero into the link and all of them waited with baited breath for an answer.

"Hello? 01? What's up?" was the slightly static response they heard.

All of them gave a sigh of relief as they looked at each other some smiling others smirking and one just showing his emotions unknowingly through his eyes.

"02 where are you? We've been trying to find you for a while now," said Quarter as he took Heero's link from him.

"Huh? Oh I'm at a hotel with a friend just getting back in touch," they heard their comrade say, "We haven't seen each other in a long time." They heard a crash in the background. "Huh? Ash no! Don't jum…Oomph!"

"02?" Cried Quatre in horror.

"I'm fine 04 just fine Ash just decided to jump on me in greeting," said the American with a smile in his voice, "I'm all good."

"How did you get into the hotel without being caught, Maxwell?" Asked Wufei as he took the link all of them listening to the conversations being had.

"Easy, I don't look like myself…..or I do but not what you remember….it's a complicated story. I'll tell you it another day," said their friend, "Anyway um…..I don't know if I'll be back anytime soon….I have something to take care of but I will help with missions."

"What? Maxwell what could be so important that you have to leave us?" Demanded Wufei as he looked at the link.

"Well um remember what we were talking about before I left? Well it's back….say Hi to Ashura and Yasha."

The group was about to ask who those two were when they heard two contrasting voices.

"Hello to all of you." One was deep and slightly rough voice said and the other was a soft almost childlike voice that seemed to just cry for protection.

"He...hello" said the pilots slightly shocked at the voices.

"Well got to go guys see you later…..oh and I don't suggest going outside tonight," they heard their friend say, "It's cold and one of you…..Quatre will likely get frostbite from looking for your gloves in the jeep…..fyi their in your room top drawer left corner. Well later!"

"Wait Duo…." Quatre exclaimed but it was too late the link went dead. They all stared at it in confusion.

"Did that just happen?" Asked Trowa softly.

"I…I think so," said Wufei in a startled daze.

"How did he know I was going to look for my gloves….or where they were for that matter?" Asked Quatre curiously.

"He probably put them there," said Heero looking for an explanation.

"Maybe….." said Quatre as he went to retrieve his gloves so to be ready for tomorrow's mission.

With Kujaku

Kujaku flopped down onto the bed of his friends and smiled when he felt the small little Ashura curl up under his arm. He looked down to see a waterfall of long black silky hair with tiny elf like ears poking out. The creamy white skin looking slightly darker then the white tunic like clothing the boy was wearing. Gold eyes peered up at him as the old jewelry with red gems adorned his neck. The boy's hair tie was out and on the night stand beside the bed. Kujaku couldn't resist any more.

"Oh you're just too cute," said Kujaku as he wrapped his arms around the petite boy and swung him back and forth on the bed.

"Hey cut that out," said Yasha as he exited the bathroom, "Cause if he gets sick his sleeping with you."

Kujaku pouted at Yasha.

"Awe still no fun are you Yasha," he said with a hint of humor in his eyes. They all knew if any fights broke out they would be in good natured fun.

"Well one of us has to keep their head in reality," said Yasha with a hint of a smile on his lips.

"Hey I have my head in reality," said Kujaku in his false defense, "Not my fault it like fantasy better."

Ashura laughed a little at this which was the desired reaction out of the 2 men in the room.

"We missed you Kujaku," said Ashura as he hugged Kujaku's middle, "I'm sorry for what happened."

Kujaku looked at the top of the boys head and smiled as he hugged him back.

"Nothing to be sorry for I choose my fate and I'm glad I did," He said, "Besides I'm here now so were all good, right? Don't get sad on me Ashura."

Ashura nodded and smiled at the purple haired man before running into the bathroom.

"I'm getting ready for bed now," he announced before shutting the door.

Yasha and Kujaku looked at each other then laughed as they too got ready for bed.

Well that was very short. Sorry people I just got out of surgery yesterday and I am drugged up on pain pills so I'm tired and it took a lot of brain power to write this….and I have another one I'm going to attempt to write while I'm at it. Hope you like it sorry if it's crappy. Oh and about the voices I did my interpretation on their voices because I tried looking for an episode and all I got were AMV's on YouTube so yea sorry if they're not right.
