Disclaimer: I don't own Gundam Wing, but I do own this story line.
A/N: Hey! New story! YAY! Oh, by the way, Intrigued By Innocence CH.6 will be posted tomorrow! YAY again! I made it longer too! Anyway, this is something new! A pirate AU adventure fic! I guess you can tell that I like to do AU's, huh? This is a story of Captain Duo, his competitive relationship with Hilde, and his taking of an important possession of Milliardo's. This fic also has a little bit of romance between 2+H and 1+R! Can't give too much away! So on with the fic!!
Prologue
" Land! Captain Duo, we're home!"
Captain Maxwell, or rather called Duo, looked onward to the Isle of Esperia with a grin. It was indeed good to be home.
" Solo."
" Yes Duo?"
" Dock the El Diablo at Cerulean Harbor, looks like our men can't wait to visit their home."
" Yes Captain!"
Duo watched his dear friend leave quickly to dock the ship, still wearing his grin. Turning back to the direction of Esperia, his senses were filled with the smell of exotic spices and the sight of the neighboring ships. Of course, no other ship was better than his own El Diablo. Ha! These other ships were useless and nothing compared to his. None of these ships...
" Hey Duo...."
The Captain felt a tap on his shoulder and a mischievous idea came to mind. Within a second, Duo grabbed his sword hanging from his waist, pulled it out, and before Solo even blinked, thrust it so it was centimeters from his friend's neck.
The reaction from Solo was nothing but a dull stare. A dull stare that did not entertain Duo. Unsatisfied, Captain Duo slowly brought down his sword. Damn. He used to be able to scare Solo any time he wanted, he guessed Solo had finally gotten used to his tricks.
" Aaaaa, Solo! Can't you at least PRETEND to be scared?"
Another dull stare.
" Fine! No more tricks! So what was it you wanted to ask?"
Solo let out a little smirk. Duo will always and forever be Duo. What a strange Captain. Duo was always so...so...nice, but a fierce sword fighter. His skills were miraculous! And his will and determination to find treasure stayed with him, even when it took months to find it. Well, this time they didn't come home empty handed. They brought a hull filled with gold and jewels, surely enough to last them awhile. Well, last enough till Duo once again wants to look for treasure.
" Duo, isn't that...."
" Isn't that what?"
" Isn't that the Renacimiento?"
Duo's eyes widened as he slowly turned around to the front of the ship. There before him was a massive ruby red ship with the word Renacimiento imprinted on it in gold. Soft laughter erupted among the crew as they all stared at Duo's jaw drop. Everyone knew that their was sure to be a bet by the end of the day between the captain of Renacimiento and their own. Duo still stared on, despite the laughter, to the ship. Slowly, a smirk began to tug on his lips as he said the captain's name.
" Hilde. Once again, I shall beat you at the next bet. What shall be the reward this time?"

A/N: Hey! How did ya like it? By the way, Renacimiento is spanish for revival (I think), and El Diablo is spanish for The Devil (perfect for Duo, ne?).The best way to tell me is through a review, so send them all in! Thanx! And no, the whole story isn't about a bet. There is a lot more to this story than that, plus Heero, Hilde, and Milliardo will be introduced in the next chapter. See ya till then!
