A Gundam Wing Story: Ch.3

Disclaimer: I don't own anything (to do with Gundam Wing) 'cept for that sweet widdle kitty, Oreo, and that demonic devil-dog Roxy. This disclaimer goes for part two, cuz I kinda forgot tah put it in there (oops.... my bad! ^.~), so don't sue me, K? Review afta ya read! Thanx ppl!! Ja!


I froze. How should I tell my dad?

"HEY DAD!! I'm COMING!!!" I yelled to the other room. "Heero, come with me! You can back up the story."

"Ok...mmph!" I grabbed his arm and tugged him to the front room. I looked over my shoulder.
"You guys stay here! I'll yell for ya in a sec!!" I ran into the living room. "Hey dad!" I hugged him. He looked behind me at Heero and gave me a very confused look.

"Katie, who-"

"It's okay, dad! This is Heero. You won't believe it, but he's from th-"

"The local high school." I glared at Heero and mouthed 'the truth' to him.
He looked down and sighed. He then proceeded to tell my dad the whole
story, everything he told me. Afterwards, my dad stood there.

"'What? Are you joking? If you are, then you pulled out all the stops for this one, K! You had me for a minute there. This is December, not April!"

I shook my head in frustration and led my dad to my room. His reaction- he stood there for a little while, mouth gaping open at sight of the towering structure in his
backyard. I introduced him to Quatre and Duo, and got up the courage to ask
him if the boys could stay for a little while longer.

"Uh, sure, I guess it would be fine." Quatre and Duo thanked him and Heero assured it would only be for a few hours. My dad exited my room to eat his lunch. My stomach grumbled angrily, and I started out my room door
after my dad when Duo took my arm.

"Do you have anything else to eat? I'm starving!"

"DUO! You just ate!"

"Yeah, but, that was just a little bitty sandwich!"

Quatre shook his head. "Duo, Heero was right... these generous people won't
have anything left to eat by the time we leave! Where are your manners-"

A muffled voice came from inside the Gundam. "AHHH!! Don't bite that!!!"
Heero stumbled out the Gundam holding Roxy. In her mouth was the time-
machine-clock thing....

Duo and Quatre sprang to help Heero retrieve the object from the puppy's
clenched teeth. I nudged them out of the way and picked up Roxy by the back
of her neck. "This is the only thing that works."
Roxy squirmed, but finally gave in and dropped it. Heero picked up the broken
pieces and sighed.

Duo looked at him hopefully. "You can fix it, right?... Heero?"

Heero looked at him solemly. "I-I don't know...."

"WHAT!!!? Whaddya mean you don't know?! How are we gonna get home??!!!"

Quatre didn't react. He seemed to be analyzing the situation. "Could we use Wing Zero to send a message to the future?"

Heero thought a moment and nodded. "I'll try." He hopped out the window and
climbed into the cockpit.

"Im gonna go get something to eat. Since you haven't had anything to eat yet,
Quatre, would you like anything?"

"No, I'm fine, but thank you."

Duo looked at me with a sad puppy face and smiled innocently.
"Pllllllllllleeeease?"

I couldn't refuse.....
"C'mon. Just don't eat what I want!" Duo smiled happily and walked out the
room. "Sure you're not hungry,Quatre?"

Quatre shook his head. "No. Besides, I think I better help Heero-"
There was a frustrated cry and a muffled slam against metal. Quatre raised an
eyebrow.
"Before he breaks what's left of the time-clock!"

I laughed. "Ok. Hey Heero, need anything?"
Another slam.
"Heero, I can't fix THAT! Want anything to eat?"

"Not now, thanks, I'll come when I'm hungry! Or when I get this stupid thing
fixed...."

"K!" I yelled out to him. Quatre shrugged and headed to the Wing Zero.
I walked down the hall, hoping Duo didn't eat my lunch already.....


**************************************

I walked into the kitchen and took out a frozen chicken dinner. Duo and my
dad were sitting at the table, engaged in a conversation. Duo had already
finished his lunch (yes, he ate it under 5 minutes...) and seemed to be
explaining something....

"So, you piloted one of those things?"

"Yes I did, and, might I add, I was very good at it!"

"But you weren't too young to fly it in space?"

"No, I had special training when I was young-"

"But you ARE young! Didn't your parents have anything to say about that?"

"No, I'm an orphan." I looked at Duo sorrowfully.

"Oh, I see. That is very interesting, though, you being so young and yet so
skilled!" Typical; my light-hearted dad making an optimistic opinion on a sensitive subject. I was grateful, though, that Duo's ego sucked the comment right up....

"Thanks, I know I'm great!"

I laughed. "That's not the only thing you're great at; do you even know how fast
you ate that soup, Duo?" He looked down at his empty soup bowl and smiled.

"Told 'ya I was hungry!"

I laughed and sat down to eat my lunch, when suddenly
Oreo came running past, followed by Roxy with a certain something in her
mouth, who was immediately followed by Quatre and Heero.
I jumped out of my seat and caught Roxy as she went by, picked her up by the
scruff of her neck, and retrieved the now-even-more-broken time clock....

Duo sighed. "At this rate, we'll never get home."

That's not such a bad thing.... I thought to myself.

I gave Heero the pieces and he stood there, astonished.

"How could one dog, let alone one PUPPY, do so much damage?!"

I sighed. "That's Roxy for ya."

"Forget this thing, I'm sending a message to Trowa! Hopefully he'll get it."
Heero walked to my room, mumbling something like "This better work or I'm gonna.....*mumble mumble*" (I didn't quite catch the rest).

"Don't worry-he's always like that." Duo smiled and shook his head.

"Oh...."
