Chibi Nightheart: Hi, it's been a while since I wrote a short.
Chibi Sainlor Lilith-Chan: I'll say, and with all these wonderful ideas I've been throwing at you…
Chibi Nightheart: That you have, but this one's going to be one of my own. I've been toying with the idea for a while.
Chibi Lilith-Chan: You mean it isn't one of mine? What a gyp!
Chibi Nightheart: I promise, I'll write that one you suggested for you soon.
Chbi Lil-Chan: And where are those descriptions for chapter three of the evangelion crossover?
Chibi Nightheart: Hey, talk to my muse about that one.
Muse: Oh, suuure, blame it on the muse. She can't even defend herself! And by the way you two, are you going to get on with this fic or am I going to have to start making abandonment threats?
Chibi Nightheart: Okay, Okay…consider the introduction over with! And without further ado, I present "Heero's Rather Unpleasant Surprise."

Heero looked up at the balcony that led to Relena Peacecraft Darlian's private bedchambers.
My angel. How I have missed you, he thought, gazing longingly up at the darkened window where the princess slept chastely inside.
Heero climbed the rose covered trellis up to the balcony, intent on his mission. He vaulted over the marble banister and landed without a sound. He tried the double French doors but they were locked. Nothing daunted, Heero expertly picked the lock and let himself into Relena's inner sanctum.
He surveyed the rooms about him, quiet cozy…he would have to have her get rid of the ruffly pillows, but all in all it looked comfortable.
There.
She lay sleeping peacefully in her bed, her face untroubled by dark dreams. His angel. Heero eyed her sleeping form with a sort of proprietary possessiveness. He had, of course, made sure that Relena remained unclaimed by anyone else until such a time as he was ready to come back to her. A few well placed threats, a glare, a tiny bomb if the suitor was particularly tenacious, and Relena was kept free.
Her bed lay in a shadowed corner of the room so he could not see her beautiful sleeping face himself yet…
**Grrrrrrrr**
"?" he said aloud. That noise didn't belong there. The low pitched growl of an animal rose from where Relena slept. Two eyes glowed out from the shadows, glinting in the darkness with silent threat.
**Grrrrr**
Relena stirred from where she slept. Heero distinctly heard her sweet voice sigh contentedly with the sound of rustling bedsheets. He heared a long intake of breath as Relena awoke from her slumber.
"Relena," he murmured. Advancing to where she lay he reached out a hand as if to touch her cheek and said "I'm here. I've come for you."
She looked up at him with sleep fogged eyes, her golder locks tumbling messily down her back. Suddenly her eyes widened. Heero was prepared to catch her when she threw himself in his arms.
"AHHHHHHHH!! HENTAI!!!!" she screamed. Something launched itself at Heero alright…but it definitely wasn't Relena.
Heero found himself fending off the snapping jaws and ivory fangs of a purebred Rotwieler! How cute, Relena got herself a little dog.
"Help! Intruder! Pagan! Milliardo! Help!"
Relena's cries were unnecessary, Fido was doing quite an admirable job of defending her as it was. Heero managed to get the trained police dog off him, he had had some training in that after all, and headed back to the balcony launching himself back to the ground. The last thing he heard Relena say was
"Pagan! Release the hounds."
Oh shit!
