Disclaimer: I do not own Gundam Wing.

I'm sorry for taking so long with this chapter. I just sort of had a writer's block I guess. But I fixed that… More like it dissolved. But anywayz, on with the story ;)

When you are unhappy, is there anything more maddening than to be told

that you should be contented with your lot? - Kathleen Norris

Hidden desires.

Relena couldn't find the strength today to drag herself out of bed. It was true that this whole vacation thing was a blessing, however she was getting restless. She was growing tired of lying around all day.

Dorothy had proven to be quite fun to spend time with and they did have some interesting discussions. They had even had a girls' night like she and Kat used to have. Just watch movies and 'pig out' as Kat called it. Yet she could not help but feel something important was missing. She had no goal, no purpose and she was starting to get bored.

Suddenly she had an idea. She ran downstairs almost knocking Dorothy over.

"Good morning."

"Morning Dorothy, sorry for almost knocking you over." She grinned sheepishly.

"That is quite alright Miss… Lena."

Relena shook her head, Dorothy just couldn't get used to calling her Lena.

They went into the kitchen and she got herself some cereal.

Dorothy was leaning against the counter, watching her.

In one swift motion Relena put down her bowl. "I want to get a job."

Dorothy's eyebrows arched up. "You do realize you are supposed to be on a vacation and no one is to know you're even gone?"

"I know, but I need something to do. I need a job, to feel useful."

"What kind of job?"

"I… I hadn't thought that far yet." She crossed her arms with a stubborn look on her face.

Dorothy smirked in amusement, though inside she was fighting a fierce battle. Kat had made her promise to keep Relena safe, but she had also stated that she was to let Relena do what she wanted within reason and in disguise. Of course she would have to be there to keep Relena out of trouble and observe… She had seen a note at an old coffee shop not too far away which said they were looking for waitresses. She had a background check run on them a while ago and they were just a nice old couple. Her decision had been made.

"How about being a waitress Miss Relena?"

Relena looked at her hopefully.

"Of course you're going to have to make sure you get hired."

Smiling Relena nodded. "I will. Besides it is a way to help people."

Dorothy frowned. "Do tell."

"Usually people need someone to listen, someone they can tell their problems too and maybe even get a bit of advice. A waitress is usually that person. I'm going to be that person." She explained.

Shaking her head Dorothy sighed. 'Still as idealistic as ever.'

Kat had provided them with the fake identification. She frowned, this looked like her but it wasn't her picture. Groaning as she realized it was Kat she had to resist the urge to slam her head on the table. Luckily they looked so much alike sometimes even she had difficulties telling them apart when comparing pictures. Not that she had a lot of pictures of Kat.

The coffee shop was called Burdy's. It was a nice little building, right next to the road. Relena and Dorothy got out of her car and entered. She had gone ahead. "Excuse me?"

An elderly lady came rushing out. "I'm so sorry to keep you waiting dear, what can I do for you?"

"Actually we're looking for a job, my friend saw the note on the door."

"Do you have any experience?"

Relena looked down. "No… But we're willing to learn." She added her voice filled with determination.

"Alright, it's not like we have much other candidates anyway." The lady chuckled and held out her hand. "I'm Dora Burdy, my husband Ted and I own this place."

Shaking her hand Relena smiled. "I'm Lena Summers and that is Dorothy Frost."

"Welcome aboard girls. You can start right now. Get changed and I'll show you what to do."

Dorothy followed silently, studying the place.

Kat was trying to write a letter to Relena, the key word being trying. Writing letters just wasn't her thing, she only wrote death threats occasionally.

What was she supposed to write anyway? Lena wanted her to update her on the situation. She didn't even want to try to explain the situation.

Maybe something along the lines of:

'Hey Relena. How are you? I'm good, by the way I was kissing Trowa the other day on your bed and Heero saw us so he's kind of not talking to me now. Not that he did in the first place. But it's not that big a deal, I'll fix it.'

She hit her head on the table. 'Stupid.' Relena didn't even know Heero was back. In the middle of yet another attempt Duo came bursting in.

"Hi princess, what are ya doing?"

Immediately she crumpled the paper and threw it away casually. "Not much Duo, just paperwork as usual."

"Then what was that?"

"What?"

"What you just threw away." Duo said with a grin.

Oh how she would have enjoyed wiping that grin off of his face with a right hook, right about now. Bloody American. Why can't he mind his own business? Now she needed an excuse… Now who could she be writing to so that Duo would back off…?

"I was writing a letter to Heero." She said with a softly, looking at her hands.

"Why princess? He's just outside…"

"I know but he won't talk to me…"

Duo looked at her sadly. "I'll be there for you if you need me."

She smirked as he left, that was too easy. However just to be sure she removed the letter from her trashcan and hid it in her briefcase. It can never hurt to be cautious.

Todd and Cory had been ordered to report to their commanding officer ASAP.

Dan sat in his chair waiting for them.

"Todd, report what you have found so far."

"My informant has told me that Relena is not who she appears to be."

Cory groaned. "Stop talking in riddles would you."

"Relena is not Relena. Our informant has told us that her twin sister has taken her place."

"That bitch doesn't have a twin sister."

"Actually she does, and besides Relena, her sister and our informant only three other people know." Todd threw a folder in front of Cory.

Dan watched their argument with slight amusement before turning his attention to the folder. It confirmed what the informant had claimed. He started giving out orders, successfully getting their attention.

"Todd I want you to find out everything you can about Relena's twin. Where has she been all this time and could she become a problem? Furthermore I want to know everyone that even so much as contacted Relena during the past three months."

Then he turned to Cory.

"Pick a team. You are going to track Relena down and bring her in alive. Todd will provide you with the information you need."

He turned his chair so that he was facing the window and they could no longer see him.

"And one more thing, don't forget you are not to touch her Cory. I do not tolerate failure. Dismissed."

"Yes sir." They both replied.

Todd headed back to his 'information centre' as he called it. And Cory headed for the men. He knew exactly who he wanted in his team.

He was flipping through their personnel files and picked a few out.

Mike Bairn a.k.a. Manic Bomber, he was an explosives expert. The picture included showed a man in his early twenties with red hair and a maniacal grin. Cory put his file aside. He would do nicely.

Alexander Schwarz a.k.a. Raptor, a hacker. He remembered him, a tall skinny man with black hair and green eyes, German if he wasn't mistaken. He would be a good asset.

Nikolai Petrov a.k.a. Grimm, a tall blue eyed, blonde Russian. One of the most feared around, much like he himself for that matter. A sniper and an expert when it came to stealth whose skills always prove to be useful. He put his folder aside as well.

Brian Stratz a.k.a. the Brain. Standing at 5'10 he was the shortest of the group. His white hair and red eyes made him stand out. But when it came to strategy there was no match for him.

He smirked. With a team like this under his command and Todd's resourceful ways of getting information they would have this girl before the sun set.
