After the Eve Wars...Again

A Gundam Wing fanfic by Raberba girl

Author's Note: This is the beginning of a sequel to After the Eve Wars... I was going to do, but I did not have the time or interest to finish it. It takes place about two years after the epilogue. Permanently incomplete.

Part 1 - Preventers, Assemble!

All the heroes of Gundam Wing were gathered in the big conference room of the Preventers' headquarters. Lady Une paced before them, looking grim. She had important news to tell them.

"Preventers, we have a new crisis. Another random evil organization is threatening to drop a colony on Earth if we don't surrender quietly."

Relena screamed and appeared to faint, then cracked an eye open to see if anyone had noticed her theatrics.

Duo gasped and nearly choked on his blueberry smoothie. "Oh no! That is such a bad thing!"

"You have blueberry smoothie all down your shirt," Hilde pointed out gleefully.

Everyone else broke into a loud babble of exclamations, comments, and questions.

"Who is this new organization?"

"Did Treize manage to crawl out of the lake?"

"How will we stop them?"

"Will we need the Gundams?"

"Everyone shut up, I'm trying to order a pizza here!"

"Pizza?"

"Oh, oh, get meat-lovers with extra chopped shrimp!"

"Ew, who eats chopped shrimp on their pizza?"

"I'm a vegetarian, get a cheese pizza for me!"

"Order garlic sticks, too!"

Lady Une slammed her hands down on the table. "Everyone SHUT UP!"

Everyone shut up.

"Hang up that phone!"

"Thanks, that'll be all, bye," Sandy Maxwell said rapidly, and cut the connection. The face of the confused pizza guy faded from the comm screen.

"Now." Une narrowed her eyes. "We are facing a new menace. They are called White Sock, based in the L3 colony cluster."

"L3. Why am I not surprised?" Trowa muttered.

"White Sock?" Sandy snickered. "What kind of name for an evil organization is that?"

"It's better than the Society of the Nanashi Clowns," Noin said slyly. She grinned in Trowa's direction, but he only stared stonily ahead.

"White Sock has demanded that the Preventers disband, and that we hand over the Gundams to them."

"Never!" Christy Yuy hissed possessively.

Quatre suddenly began to cry. "I wish I had a Gundam to hand over. Wagh, Sandrock!"

Immediately almost everyone looked glum, remembering their old pals. When the mobile suits had realized they were supposed to have been blown up way back in Endless Waltz, they'd all gone away in a huff, so now Christy, Sandy, James, Chelsea, and Chris were the only ones left with mobile suits.

Une allowed a brief moment of glumness, then went back to business. "Now, I've called this meeting to brief you all, but also so that we may start planning a defense against White Sock. Eventually we will need to infiltrate the colony they've taken over and capture or kill their leaders-"

Heero suddenly stood up. The look on his face was alarming. "I thought we were finished," he growled. "First Operation Meteor and the Eve Wars, then the Mariemaia business, then the mess with REO and DTO and OSCFB and SONC, and THEN the Nerds. Why won't it stop?!"

"Because the fans want the series to continue so they can keep watching their favorite bishounen in action?" Duo guessed.

"They said in Endless Waltz that we didn't have to fight anymore!" Heero continued. "How much longer do I have to be a soldier? How many more times must I kill that girl and her puppy?!"

"Puppy?" said Quatre interestedly.

"What girl?" Relena demanded.

"What's Endless Waltz?" someone wondered.

Heero jumped onto the table and paced, waving his arms passionately. "I'm sick of wars! I'm sick of stupid people forming random evil organizations trying to take over the world! I quit! I'm going on strike!"

"Me too!" Relena said happily. "Just what I need to spice up my political image: a strike!"

Heero threw out his arms dramatically. "Come, my love, let us go on strike together!"

"Yes!" Relena ran into his arms and kissed him passionately, and then the two walked out of the room, grinning triumphantly.

"I'm not related to them," Christy said with a straight face. Chris Chang patted her shoulder in sympathy.

Sandy raised his hand for attention. "Here's what I propose. These White Sock dorks don't sound tough. Us kids'll go in, I'll clean 'em out with my superpowers, the other four can pick off the survivors, and all you old people won't have to lift a finger."

Hilde swatted at her son. "Someone around here has an inflated head."

Sandy stuck his tongue out at her.

"Well, even if we all can't be endowed with alien superpowers, the rest of us are still useful, I would hope, in backing you up should the need arise," Lady Une said dryly. "Noin, Sally, and the Gundam pilots will accompany you in the Preventers ships, while the Maganacs will try to find and retrieve all the old mobile suits. Zechs and I will attempt to gather more information about White Sock and its allies, and how they stand politically. I am placing James in charge of the main assault mission."

"Why James?" Sandy exclaimed indignantly. "The whole thing was my idea!"

"Because James Barton is, in my opinion, the only one of you kids with any sense," Une growled.

James grinned smugly at Sandy, who tried discreetly to shoot a static shock at him. He missed.

"Weakling," Chris said calmly.

"Shut up!"

"Heed your own advice, Maxwell," Une cut in. "Now James, if White Sock pulls any surprises on you at all, if anything unexpected happens, I want you to retreat immediately. This is supposed to be a simple mission; we don't have enough information to be completely certain we're not underestimating the enemy."

"Understood, ma'am."

"Understood, ma'am," Sandy mimicked softly.

"And what do Dorothy and I do?" Hilde asked.

"You will, er...be in charge of refreshments."

"Yay!" Hilde cheered.

"Hilde will be in charge of refreshments," Dorothy sniffed. "I will lead the Maganacs."

The Maganacs all saluted. "Yes, Dorothy-sama!"

Dorothy grabbed her husband and kissed him with violent affection, then marched out of the room leading Quatre's little Arabian army. The rest of the Preventers dispersed soon afterward, to prepare for their respective missions.

Part 2 - Uncle Duo, Aunt Hilde, and Cousin Sandy

Someone was waiting for the Maxwells as they drove up to their house and pulled into the driveway. That someone wasn't a sniper or an assassin.

It was an eight-year-old girl.

She jumped up from where she had been sitting with her luggage on the Maxwells' front porch and screamed, "AUNT HILDE, AUNT HILDE! UNCLE DUO! COUSIN SANDY! HI, HI, HI!"

"Oh no, not you!" Sandy gasped in horror.

Hilde threw open the car door, jumped out, and flung her arms wide. "Darling! What are you doing here? I'm so glad to see you!"

The little girl flew into her arms with shrieks of delight. They danced around wildly. "Aunt Hilde, Aunt Hilde! I've got lots to tell you! Hi!" Then she wrenched free, turned, and flung herself on Duo, who laughed and spun her around. "Hey, girl, we haven't seen you in, what, two years? Three? Man, you grew! And what did you do to your hair?"

Dana Schbeiker giggled and held out her long chestnut brown braid. It looked exactly like Duo's and Sandy's, except that the undyed roots of her hair were dark. "How do you like it?"

"It's cute," Hilde said, and kissed her niece on the forehead. "Now, where did Sandy go?"

"I think he fled to the house," Duo said. "He's probably hiding under his bed, hoping you won't think to look there. So, why are you alone? Your parents do know you're here, right?" He gave her a significant look as he helped carry Dana's bags into the house.

Dana giggled. "Of course they know, Uncle Duo, but I thought I'd surprise you."

"You certainly did that," Hilde said. "Sandy! Where are you?"

"Oh, let me!" Dana dashed down the hall into her cousin's room. "Cousin Sandy, Cousin Sandy!" She threw herself to her knees and peered under the bed.

"Go away!" Sandy yelled, his face a mask of horror.

"Don't be silly, Cousin Sandy." Dana grabbed his arm and dragged him out from under the bed. Sandy sighed, looking at Dana with a pained expression on his face.

Dana grinned mischievously and reached out to shake Sandy's hand, as if they were meeting for the first time.

"Hello, sir. My name is Dana Schbeiker."

"I know."

"I'm your cousin."

"I know."

"I'm going to stay here for two months, until school starts again."

"NO!" Sandy was horrified. "Two months?! It can't be!"

Dana only smiled and hugged him.

0-0-0-0-0

At lunch, Sandy glumly picked at his food and daydreamed that Dana had never been born. Hilde and Dana chattered to each other in German and Duo pretended he could understand what they were talking about.

A/N: I know how stupid this fragment is (I wrote it YEARS AGO), but I'm trying to streamline all my fanfiction accounts and realized that this was not on FFN yet. *sweatdrop*
