Wufei, Duo, and Quatre were lounging on
the window seat, watching the new recruits filing into the Preventer armed
forces academy.
"There's more of them than there was last
term," stated Quatre, for want of something to say to his silent friends.
"That's because we let Maxwell there help
us write the entrance exam," said Wufei.
"Yeah," said Duo, then after a five second
pause, "…HEY!!"
Quatre raised his eyes to the sky, as if
looking for some divine assistance. "Well you're not exactly the brightest of
pilots, are you?"
"Ex-pilots," moaned Wufei, still sore about
the loss of their Gundams.
"C'mon Wufei, you know as well as I do that
once peace had been restored to the colonies the world leadership had to
confiscate any weapons that were a danger to the Peacecraft treaty."
Wufei lent on the windowsill, his hand in
his hands.
"Yeah…I know…" he murmured.
Wufei then narrowed his eyes threateningly
at what he saw out of the window.
"Maxwell…" he sneered, without turning to
look at Duo. "Just how easy did you make that exam?"
"Why Wu-wu?"
'Wu-wu' began to growl, "Because there's
some girls out there!"
As Duo scrambled to see out of the window,
Quatre scolded Wufei. "Of all the ignorant, chauvinist things to say Wufei! All
of those girls out there were in the top 10% of all candidates who got in to
this school. And it wasn't just the exam they had to pass either! In fact…"
Quatre ruffled some papers on his desk, and then shoved one in Wufei's face.
"There! This girl, Hannah Thomas achieved the highest ever score for a theory
exam. 120%!
I guess on an exam co-written by Duo that
would make it (...subtract one-fifth…) 100%, but still!"
Wufei was still not convinced. "Pity she
didn't get very high on her combat simulation! Feh! Women are weaklings!"
Quatre defended Hannah, "There are other
ways of handling things Wufei! Violence should always be a last resort. Here's
more proof for you, these two girls, Rowena Henderson and Katie Rowe got
excellent scores on their stamina and endurance tests. They're obviously not
'weak'!
Wow! Look at this girl's statistics for the
combat simulation! She beat all of the other candidates, male and female,
and defeated a White Taurus mobile suit using only the standard Libra! The
Taurus is the closest thing to a Gundam!"
Wufei snatched the paper with a
disbelieving look on his face, and then studied the printouts, which contained
graphs of speed and time against suits defeated, etc. His eyes widened as he
handed the papers back to Quatre. "They…they're actually… pretty good…for a
girl…of course. Who is she?"
"Her name is Jennifer Yuy. Hmm… Yuy…
wouldn't that make her Heero's little sister?" Quatre cringed when he saw the
look on Wufei's face. "Oops!"
"Oh yeah! I remember her!" Duo punched
Wufei on the shoulder. "Wasn't she the one who trashed Nataku a couple of years
back?"
Duo laughed at the memory. (Natuku is
Wufei's prized Gundam.)
"And you were out of action for weeks
trying to fix-"
Quatre clapped his hand over Duo's mouth,
and then proceeded to persuade Wufei not to kill Duo. (Seems to have to do that
a lot, doesn't he?)
"Wufei, please, you know the girl didn't
mean what she did!"
"No, she just decided to take my
Gundam 'for a spin', and then drove it over a cliff!"
"You can see by her test scores she's
improved!"
"Women are weaklings!"
Duo had somehow managed to pry Quatre's
hand away from his mouth, "Aawww, poor Wu-wu." As Wufei scowled at him, he
grinned. "Oh well, you heard what Quatre said, maybe it's time some girls got
in to the academy."
Quatre and Wufei stared open mouthed at the
apparently intelligent remark made by their not-so-bright friend.
"Anyway, some of them might be cute!"
Whatdya think, should I continue? Review it
and tell me…
