Chapter 8

Footnote#8-

All of the Gundam Pilots were sitting in the kitchen eating dinner that Heero fixed (Well actually he had a little help from Trowa ^_~!). Anyway, Duo already managed to obliterate the whole meal…except for the salad. A look of utter disgust passed across his face as he looked at it.

"Don't stare at your salad like that, Duo. It is very good for you." Quatre said like a stern parental figure.

"Yes Momma." Duo half mumbled, half said out loud. Quatre paid him no mind.

Duo prodded at the vegetables. Hate Salad. Disgusting vile substance.

Wufei looked up at him and snickered. "Veggies make weak people strong, Maxwell. A great benefit to an onna like you."

Hate Wu-chan too. Duo thought as he took up a fork full and shoved the horrid stuff in his mouth. He swallowed the stuff with a huge gulp and was about to go for more when something in his salad caught his eye. What is that?…It's a worm. IT'S A WORM! Duo panicked.

"There is…a worm…in my food!" Duo said calmly.

"Let me see." Quatre leaned over and looked at it. "It is a worm."

"Well, I guess I can't eat it anymore, huh?" Duo said more cheerfully than he had wanted, as he pushed the plate away.

"It is still good, Duo. Just take the worm out." Quatre said sitting again. (I swear my parents said this to me).

"But what would happen if I ate the worm." Duo pleaded, "I mean come on."

"You're such a weakling, Maxwell." Said Wufei

"Nothing would happen, Duo." Heero suddenly said.

"Yes, something would happen." Duo said, "I'll be sitting in my gundam minding my own business. You know, blowing up stuff and all of a sudden my stomach would start bubbling and I would say to my stomach 'not now I'll feed you later okay'. But it wouldn't stop then suddenly the skin on my stomach would suddenly bubble and then a whole bunch of worms would come out. Wufei would come over the com just to watch me suffer and Wufei would say 'I'm a weakling, so I deserved it'.

Then the worms would come out of my stomach and eat me. But it wouldn't stop at me, they would eat everything but Quatre and Trowa would survive somehow. And they would try to launch a counter attack against the worms, which are ten times bigger than they were before because of eating so many people and things. Anyway Trowa and Quatre would manage to kill a few of them but they call upon their alien kindred from outer space and they will come down and help the worms.

They would slowly destroy the whole planet and everyone in it, and then they would grow giant wings and fly into outer space moving, from planet to planet until they destroyed everything and we're all going to die!" Duo blurted out in one breath. Everything was silent as they stared at him.

Duo looked around the room. Wufei had his fork, with food still on it, hanging in mid air. Quatre's fork clattered to the cold, hard floor. Trowa looked like he was about to say something but couldn't. Heero had the dumbest look on his face.

"WHAT?!" Duo yelled.

"I think I hear the phone ringing." Said Trowa getting up, breaking the silence.

"I'll…go with you." Quatre said getting up, "You may…um…need help."

"Ah yeah…I'll go too." Wufei said, "Both of you…may need my protection." He rushed out after Quatre and Trowa.

Heero still stared at Duo. Duo looked back.

"What?" Heero said finally breaking out of the spell. Duo sighed, got up and left the table. "Duo no baka."
