Gundam Wing

Going Co-Ed

By ~*Angel*~

I just found out that my name doesn't show up on the search. ^_^ Probably because of the wavy line and asterisks. Anyways, I read the last chapter...I knew it sucked and it sounded even more cheesy when I read it. Hopefully, after writing this one...it'll make up for some of it...^_^ For the person who asked about the student council, like I explained, it's rather a large group and the representatives were chosen randomly. Hence why Relena and Hilde don't know Dorothy, Catherine, and Meiran. Anymore questions minna?

Disclaimer: *flaps arms* Moo.

"So then I knocked him a damn good one! I hate boys who think of us as meat! I mean come on! We're probably much more stronger, proven to be more mature, etc. I could just go on and on..." Hilde drank her strawberry smoothie as she informed them of hers and Relena's study hall experience. 'Them' were Dorothy and Meiran. Relena had called Hilde up and invited her and her roommate to come with her and Dorothy out for some late night cappuccino at the school's cafe. "I managed to broke his nose..." Hilde pointed out grinning.

"Nonono, it doesn't end there. I then asked her how we were going to explain the blood and the broken nose. Hilde...then held up a roll of masking tape and stuck it over his nose!" Relena remarked.

"So how DID you guys explain the blood?" Meiran asked.

"Oh, we told the teacher that the guys had gotten into a fight and we decided to stay out." Hilde explained. She finished off the rest of her smoothie and set it down licking her lips.

Relena nodded in agreement as she ordered another chocolate smoothie.

"Why, Miss Relena! I never would have expected you to do such a thing!" Dorothy said with a grin.

Relena touched her chest in mock sorrow. "I know...I know..." Her finger went up to wipe a fake tear away from her eyes. "Will you guys ever forgive me?"

The three girls played along.

"Awwww...you poor baby! I forgive you!" Hilde reassured. She patted Relena's hand.

Relena stuck on her best puppy face and mouthed a mock 'Thank You'.

"Give momma a hug!" Hilde exclaimed as she held out her arms.

Relena went back to her normal face. "That's not funny."

Meiran cracked up and spat her drink right into Dorothy's face. Relena and Hilde looked at them and then looked at each other.

All four of them, even Dorothy, cracked up.

Late at night, they had finally paid for their drinks and gone back to their dorms. Dorothy was wiping her face constantly with a napkin. She finally emerged from the bathroom wearing a face mask, her robe and a turban. She was also brushing her teeth.

"Dorothy,"

"Hm?" Dorothy asked still brushing her teeth. She could exactly say anything.

"Thanks for coming with us tonight," Relena said. She had learned a long time ago that thanking people for doing something good for or with them, it earned respect and friendship.

Dorothy went into the bathroom. Relena could hear spitting and the water running. When the water stopped, Dorothy stepped out, face mask no more, and replied, "You're most welcome Miss-"

Relena held up a finger and objected.

"I'm sorry...you're most welcome Relena," Dorothy said as she climbed into bed. "Sweet dreams," She pulled the covers over her and went to sleep.

Relena smiled. She clapped her hands twice and the lights went off instantly. "Sweet dreams Dorothy,"

Her response was that of heavy breathing.

"Science is technology. Technology is science. What does that have to do with evolution? Absolutely nothing. I just thought it'd be a great way to start off our topic for today," The man said his eyes twinkling.

Students grinned and chuckled.

"Now, as a Science teacher, I have been told to teach you the theory of evolution. Most of the people believe in this theory yet there is a majority that does not. So until this class ends, you will all learn how human beings may have come into existence." Mr. Yanno (Teacher's name.) explained.

Duo raised his hand and spoke. "Isn't that for social studies?" He grinned.

"How true Maxwell, but we're going to turn a science class into BOTH a science AND social studies class." Mr. Yanno reported drawing the word 'both' and 'and.' "Also, Maxwell, you know the rules. I have to call on you for you to speak,"

Duo grinned. "Sorry Mr. Yanno."

"All is forgiven...NOW...everyone in here should know what the evolution theory is." Mr. Yanno hinted.

"We're monkeys!" Some guy shouted.

"That's the more general form of it yes...now, can anyone tell me any contradictions to that theory?" Mr. Yanno questioned.

No hands when up.

"Anybody?"

One hand went up.

Mr. Yanno pointed at that person. "Yes?"

Relena cleared her throat. "Our brains. They're far more sophisticated then a primate's brain."

"However, it could have evolved." Dorothy spoke up.

"Curved fingers." Relena stated.

"Same goes. It could have evolved."

"Seems to me we have a debate here. Both have very good sides, however, Dorothy's does seem more understandable. Relena, do you have anymore contradictions?"

"Of course Mr. Yanno. Now Dorothy, if you can explain my two past contradictions, can you explain why we have a conscience?"

The bell rang.

"Well students, that's all the time we have for today. This topic will continue next week," Mr. Yanno shouted over the students heading for the door.

Dorothy tapped Relena on the shoulder after class. "Relena, can you fence?"

Relena was confused. "Yes, I was trained to do so,"

Dorothy grinned. "A common trait we have! How sweet, now, are you good?"

"I'm average." Relena commented.

Dorothy threw her head back and laughed. "So modest I see! Average is good enough, Relena, do you care to duel?"

"What?!" Relena asked.

"Just a friendly duel! I fear my skills have gone out of shape and well, I need someone to practice. I'm sure they have a fencing room around in this building," Dorothy explained.

Relena grinned. "I guess it wouldn't hurt, you're on Dorothy Catalonia,"

"Excellent." Dorothy said with a glint in her eyes.

*Click.*

Light filled the large room.

"I don't think we're suppose to be here," Relena said as she and Dorothy walked out onto the padded area. Fencing swords were on racks and the suits were right by them.

"Pish posh, it's not like we're going to get caught. We have a free period anyways," Dorothy pointed out as she went over to the rack and picked up a sword. She flicked the end. The sword started vibrating. She put her middle finger and index finger to steady it. "Hmmm...this seems right." She threw it at Relena and Relena caught it without a flaw. "Nice catch."

"Thank you." Relena replied.

Dorothy chose her sword quickly and ran onto the mat getting into the starting position.

"Wait, aren't we suppose to wear gear?" Relena asked.

"Relena, this is just a friendly duel, wearing gear makes it too formal," Dorothy said. She thrusted at Relena.

Relena quickly blocked it. "Still, one of us could get hurt,"

"That really does depend on one's concentration and defensive skills. By the way, nice block." Dorothy complimented.

Relena threw a thrust. "So are we just suppose to fight until one is down? I still find this rather dangerous,"

"Relena, have you ever in your life lived on the edge? I mean, without planning, have you ever done things on a spur?" Dorothy questioned as she blocked thrust after thrust. She flipped over Relena and thrusted. It was blocked by Relena.

"On a spur? I'm sorry Dorothy, I'm not sure what you mean," Relena swung the sword and Dorothy.

"Have you ever done things that weren't planned? You just did them because it came to your head? Sort of like free writing, you write whatever comes into your head. Whether it be one minute you're thinking about school, then you think of an egg. You write down what comes to your mind. That's what doing stuff on the spur of the moment is," Dorothy explained. She barely hit Relena on her thrust.

Relena looked at the cut on her arm. She ran towards Dorothy and swung her sword in mid-air right at Dorothy's arm.

"Impressive," Dorothy commented.

"Now we're even," Relena expressed breathing heavily. She wasn't used to this kind of fighting.

"It's never even until ones sword is at the others neck and vice versa." Dorothy inquired. "You seem to be getting a bit tired Relena, shall we end this fight with a surrender from you?"

"One thing I learned from my brother is that you never surrender. Fight till the end. However, my ideals contradict that." Relena grimly replied. Her heart was contradicting itself while she fought. It wanted her to fight yet it didn't want her to fight.

"And those ideals are?" Dorothy swiped her and Relena quickly flipped back up blocking a thrust.

***

"Sensei, are the lights suppose to be on? Quatre questioned as they opened up the door to a light filled room. They were basically the fencing team who had come for their weekly practice.

"No, and people aren't suppose to be either." The Sensei replied as the two unprotected figures, agile as cats, fount. Sometimes, they were so fast that all they were were blurs of black. "HEY!" He yelled.

The two figures ignored him and continued sparring.

***

Relena was getting tired fast. All she was doing was blocking and dodging. "Absolute peace. From my point of view, the world is in a cold war which will soon erupt into a war in which one fights. I believe the people should get their heads out of their asses and ponder that prospect so that many lives will be saved."

"We as teens should not be thinking of these things, although, I must admit, I do think about these a lot also. I was brought up and unlike you, I see the beauty in war." Dorothy thrusted. "Is this why you've only tried to take a hit at me twice?"

Relena nodded. "I can't see the beauty in such a thing that might as well annihilate the whole human population," She blocked once more. Jump. Flip. Block. Jump. Tumble. Block.

"Ahhh...but then the monkeys would be left and they can evolve some more!" Dorothy grinned. She took her chance and thrusted right at Relena. Relena quickly rolled out of the way and jumped up.

Both were at opposite sides of the mat.

Relena spoke up first. "Then can you contradict why everything is so perfect in our world? Our body runs perfectly. Every single part of our body helps the other. It runs so perfectly like a machine with feelings! Our periodic table is perfect as it has been proven however, they think it's just pure luck. You and I both know that luck has nothing to do with science."

"Why Relena Dorlian, I don't think I have an answer for this one." Dorothy answered breathing heavily yet still with a Cheshire cat smile.

"There's always a first Dorothy Catalonia," Relena once more grimly answered. Last sentence spoke before the two started charging top speed at each other from other ends of the room.

That about ends this chapter. I tried to write as much as I could. I'm trying to get into their heads more instead of writing about their stereotypical self...tell me how I've done minna...^^ Er, SS, DDA, and TOTCA are being written. I've got them on paper, just not on the computer...
