*Last time*

"Your gundams have hands right?" Serenity questioned.

"Yeah... and your point is...?" Duo trailed off.

"I'll ride in the hand of one of the gundams" Serenity replied smugly.

"WHAT!?!" was the response she got from all of the guys.
()()()()()()()()()
*This time*

"Are you insane!?!" Duo exclaimed, wide eyed.

"Onna!! Not only are you weak and dumb, but you're crazy as well!!" Wufei declared.

"Hey! I resent that! I'm not weak, stupid, and most certiantly not crazy!" Serenity retorted hotly.

"It won't work." Hiiro said unfazed by the argument that was taking place,"We would have to sieze a space suit and we don't have time."

"Ha! I'm the princess of the moon! I don't need a space suit. I can breath just fine In space." Serenity said smugly.

"They heard us." Trowa calmly stated, pointing to the OZ soldiers walking towards the corner that would led to their hiding spot. (An: Okay, okay, that was corny but...*shrugs*)

"Alright, I will carry Serenity-hime in my gundam." Quatre finally said as Serenity activated the shield.

"Everyone, on the count of three, run. One...two...THREE!" Serenity shouted and they all ran towards the gundams. The gaurds raised their guns and started shooting like crazy. Each bullet zoomed towards the group of six, but they were instiantly deflected. The gaurds were so scared that they nearly wet their pants. Hiiro remembered that there were security cameras watching them and lifted the stunner. He made a direct hit and hoped that the camera would stop recording.

"HA! Look, the bullets don't harm us. NANANANANANA!!!*blows raspberry*" Duo teased and stopped to taunt the gaurds. Immediatly,(since Serenity and the other g-boyz were now running ahead of Duo)Duo popped(litterially) out of the shield. Instantly, bullets rang all around him. Duo screamed loudly and hightailed it back to Serenity.

"Duo no baka!! If I'm not within a 12 foot radius of you the shield won't protect you!" Serenity scolded as the rest of the pilots stored the info in their heads. As they neared the gundams they all split up and went to their seperate gundams. Serenity waited as each of the gundam eyes glowed with an eerie green color. Suddenly, Sandrock reached down with a gigantic hand and plucked Serenity off of the ground. Using it other hand to protect Serenity from the onslaught of bullets, Sandrock waited as Wing Zero lifted it's buster rifle(?????) and shot open the door. Then, all five gundams lifted off, shooting into outer space.

"All mobile dolls report to section XVI. We have five escaped gundams and one wierd female." A voice blared over the speaker.

"HEY!!! I'M NOT WIERD!" Serenity cried outraged. Her aura began to glow silver and she drew her arm back. Between the cracks of Sandrock's hand a silver beam shot out, blowing up three mobile dolls in the process.

"Whoa... you gotta teach me how to do that." Duo exclaimed from the cockpit of Deathscythe.

"Correction, CAPTURE THAT SCYCO GIRL!! ALIVE!" The mysterious voice shouted.

"Let's go." Hiiro said with his usual montone voice.

"To where?" Duo questioned, clueless as usual.

"The only mansion I have that isn't occupied by my sisters right now is the one at the edge of the Sanq Kindom." Quatre replied sheepishly.

Hiiro looked a little sick but still spoke in montone,"Then we will go to the mansion."

"You mean we have to be that close to scyco peacecraft!?!.. EEEWWWW!" Duo gagged.

"Maxwell! Stop screaming like an onna!"

"Hey! You stop insulting my fellow females and I!!!" (AN:~_~' can you guess who they are?)

"Guys, please, stop fighting. Take your anger out on the mobile dolls if you have to." Quatre pleaded.(AN: I know this doesn't sound Quatreish but...*shrugs*) The gundams formed a protective circle around Sandrock, since it had it's hands full.

"We'll clear a path for you." Hiiro said.

Inside the cockpit of Deathscythe, Duo grinned, "It's time for Shinigami to strike again!"
Deathscythe's engines flared as it shot off into the mass of oncoming mobile dolls. Using it's energy scythe, it swung it around in a circle, taking out about 7 mobile dolls. Then, it slashed everywhere until you could onty see a green streak.

"Time to join the braided baka." Wufei muttered under his breath. Nataku(Sp?) extended it's dragon claw(???) and blew up 4 mobile dolls.

"..." Heavyarms used it's chest rifles(???) and repeatidly shot the rest of the mobile dolls until they blew up.

Wing Zero lifted it's buster rifle again and blew up the base. "Mission accomplished."

Having left nothing but a twisted hunk of melted meatal (AN: The blast was weak alright?! Geez, stop stairing at me.) behind, the five gundams turned around and flew towards the Earth, Sandrock leading the way. Five giant gundams landed infront of a GIGANTIC mansion. Lucky for the pilots, the mansion was sourrounded by trees so no one could see the gundams. From the hand of Sandrock, a figure hopped out. It floated (An: Litterly) towards the ground and landed in a heap of white.

"So this is Earth huh? I've always wanted to explore this planet, but mother always said no, you can't. Earth isn't part of the alliance, and it could be dangerous down there." Serenity said, mimicking her mothers voice. Standing up, she tried to walk, but fell down in a flurry of white."*sigh* I wonder how long it's going to take for my body to adjust this time."

The cockpit of Deathscythe opened and Duo jumped out. Running to Serenity who was now laying on her back, he flopped down beside her. "What's the matter babe?" He asked.

Serenity blushed at the 'babe' comment and answered, "Duo, don't call me 'babe'. You can call me Serenity, Renity, Rena, or Sere. As for what's the matter, my body hasn't adjusted to the Earth's gravity. I won't be able to walk around without some help for awhile, but I estimate that it will only take 1 to 2 day for my body to adjust."

"That just shows how weak you are...onna."

Serenity started, it was clear that she didn't hear the other 4 pilots get out of their gundams. Rolling around so that she was on her stomache she blinked. "Where are those robots?" She questioned.

"Gundams," Quatre corrected, "and they have been transported to my basement."

"Like I was saying, you are nothing but a weak onna. Don't expect my help." Wufei said smugly, as Hiiro nodded his head."

"Fine! I know when I'm not wanted!" Serenity shouted. She got up so fast that almost no one saw the tears glistining in her eyes. Almost.(An: Okay, she can get up fast because she's mad.)
Shakily, she stormed off.

"Rena, wait!!" Duo shouted. Getting up he glared at Wufei and Hiiro before he ran after the fleeing girl. 'Man, she sure can run fast when she's angry.' he thought as he continued to persue her.

"You should go and apologize to Serenity-hime! You made her cry!" Quatre scolded. (AN: *shrugs* so it doesn't sound like Quatre...)

"I'm not about to apologize to a weak onna." Wufei said, turning his back on Quatre and Trowa. (AN: Hiiro had already dissapeared to god knows where.)

Quatre sighed and glanced over his shoulder at the dense woods. 'I sure hope Duo finds Serenity-hime' he thought, walking towards the mansion with Trowa close behind.

@#@#@#@#@#@#@##@#@#@#@#@#@

Serenity ran and ran until her body couldn't handle the Earth's gravity anymore. She collapsed against a tree and started to cry. "Oh Puu... what am I supposed to do now? ...I have no where to go...." she trailed off and started to sob once again. A branch cracked behind her and she turned around. There, walking closer, was Duo. "Oh, it's you. What do you want? Have you come to insult me more?" she asked bitterly.

"Rena, I'm sorry about what Wu-baka said. Not all of us feel that way. I mean, I want you here and so does Quatre. I'm not sure about Trowa but..." Duo trailed off as he sat down beside Serenity.

"Are you telling the truth? You don't have to say these things just to make me feel better you know. If you don't want me around, I'm sure I could go somewhere else." Serenity said softly.

"NO! That's not what I'm doing. I want you around and all... Look, I might not know how you feel about being seperated from the people who care about you but trust me, you're a lot better off than we gundam pilots are. At least you have people who care weather you exist or not. Well... Quatre does have his 29 sisters... and Trowa has his sister Cathrine." Duo said, trying to explain everything.

"What do you mean? Doesn't your family care about you?" Serenity asked.

Duo looked down and Serenity felt sorry that she even brought it up. "I'm sorry, I shouldn't butt in to your buisness. If you don't want to tell me I'll understand."

"No, it's okay, I'll tell you. This war we're fighting is against Oz, when the war first started, my parents were killed. I was one of the many children orphaned by this war..." Duo then procedded to tell Serenity about his street friends dying, and how he was so desperate that he broke into a hospital, but it was too late. He told her about the Maxwell church massacere, and about the colonies abandoning them after they had worked so hard to protect them. by the time he was finished Serenity had tears in her eyes.

"I'm sorry..." she whispered, sliver tears trickling down her eyes.

"Don't be," Duo murmered,"I'm not worth your tears."

"Oh, but Duo, you are! No one this young should go through so much! From now on, I'll worry about you and care if you exist, okay?" Serenity said solemly,"You won't be invisible to the world any more." She placed her hand on his and squeezed it reassuringly.(An: *sigh* this is soooooo corny. I stink at this stuff.)

"Okay." Duo said, smiling a bit. (AN: I was going to have Duo cry but I thought that would be waaay OOC.) "Come on," Duo got up, pulling on Serenity's hand,"we should be heading back. Quatre is bound to be worried about us by now."

Serenity nodded and stood up on shaky legs. Suddenly she fell down. "Oomf!" She exclaimed, "I'm sorry Duo, I spent all of my energy running away. I can't stand up at all."

"That's all right. I'll carry you back." Duo smiled and picked her up.

"Duo! You better not drop me!" Serenity shrieked.

"I don't know about that, you're gonna have to behave yourself." Duo teased.

@#@#@#@#@#@#@##@#@#@#@#@#@

Quatre looked out of the window for the twentieth time. He was about to colse the shutters when a figure on the horizon cought his attention. With the sun setting behind the approaching figure, it was hard to make out who he/she was but the swing braid belonging to Duo couldn't be mistaken. Quatre hurridly ran to the front door and opened it. When Duo entered the mansion Quatre saw Serenity sleeping peacefully in Duo's arms. "What happened?"

"Huh? Oh, we just had a little talk, that's all." Duo replied," Her body couldn't handle the extra stress and she fell asleep halfway here. Do you have a place for me to put her?"

"Yeah, sure. Follow me." Quatre led Duo through several hallways before finally opening a door. Inside was a gigantic bed chamber. In the corner of the room stood an authentic rosewood dresser. In the center, stood a huge, fluffy, four poster, white bed. The canopy
was decorated with white silk with red roses stiched into it. The satin pillows were arranged so that it gave a simple, but beautiful effect. The blankets were creamy peach with flower petals covering it. If front of the bed stood a vanity mirrior. At the head of the bed was a picture of a young lady with platinium blonde hair falling around her in shimmering locks.

"You can put her on the bed now." Quatre said, startling Duo out of his thoughts.

"Oh, sure." gently, he placed Serenity on the be and covered her up. Giving her one last glance before he followed Quatre out of the door.

"Duo, your room is the one to the right of Serenity-hime's, Hiiro's is to the left, mine's is around the corner, Trowa's is the one beside mine, and I thought it would be best if Wufei stayed far away from her so his is at the other end of the mansion." Quatre said, leading Duo to his room. After Duo said good night Quatre left for his own room and a strange quietness settled on the mansion.
