Everything had been going rather well for the rest of the day aside from Wufei's complaining regarding Tasha's earlier comment, but all was well. That is until about 7pm when Heero decided to check the story again to see what was added. And so there on the site was the next chapter of the story stating what had happened a few hours ago. He read it carefully seeing as how it allowed him to see into the others minds, the only thing was that down near the bottom there was an author's section. And after reading it he noticed that Tasha liked him and wanted to be with him (even if to her he was just an anime character) and he also read the reviews and laughed quietly because it seemed Kellie wanted to be with Duo.

But you see Heero wasn't the only one to check out the site at about that time, no infact Duo was checking out the new chapter and the reveiws as well. It seemed that Kellie cared about him, and he liked that fact, he liked it very much. He found it slightly amuzing that Tasha liked Heero but then again at least sahe wasn't as bad as Relena was. That was something that the 'perfect soldier' should be extremely thankful for. All in all though he wished beyond nothing else that Tasha's alternate self would allow Kellie to come back into the story. He was actually thinking of pleading with her that he would give up flirting forever just to have her back. He was especially grateful though that Kellie was not like Relena, Dorthy, Lady Une...etc. He liked her perfectly fine just the way that she was.

Heero took this time to get up from his laptop and walked to a window where he say Minako shamelessly flirting with Quatre, Wufei figting with both Rei and Makoto, Usagi trying to talk to Trowa along with Ami. It seemed very weird to see his friends like that, but then again it didn't matter, as long as they where happy. And there he saw Duo walking out to the pool as well while wearing black swimmiong trunks and no shirt at all. Heero stiffled a snort, Duo was probably hoping that Kellie would come and sweep off with him again. But as he looked out he noticed that Tasha was not out there with the others, surely they wouldn't leave her by herself.... would they? he shrugged it off though and then decided that he would go to the shooting range that was in the gym (he thought his aim was getting bad just because it was about .5 millimeteres off). He had to get around to thanking Quatre one of these days for setting up all these things in the mansions just for them.

Heero walked through the empty halls that seemed to echo the sound of laughter from those outside. You see it wasn't that Heero really didn't have emotions, it's that he found them of no real help and that he usually just didn't care about things. He allowed himself now in the privacy of the basically empty house to sigh a regretful sigh. No one really knew about him, nor did they really care. Sure the other pilots where his friends, but they didn't really search that deeply inside of him. They were always surprised when he showed any sign of emotion, that's why he normally stuck with the whole I will kill you routine. Plus the fact that they could get really annoying.

He arrived at this time in front of the gym that seemed to have everything to find Tasha just laying down a bow and arrows and frowning at the results. He heard her mutter "Dammit" under her breath and then wander to the other side of the gym where guns where lined. She looked them over and ran her hand over a few. She seemed to be admiring them, before her shoulders slumped slightly and she wandered over to the weight lifting section starting on the leg press which was only set at a measly amount of 150 each side.

Heero raised an eyebrow at this allowing a slight sign of puzzlement that was gone right about the time that it had arrived. He then walked over to her with this normal expression and asked in his monotone voice "What are you doing?" before leaning against the equipment that she was using.

"What does it LOOK like I'm doing?" She asked a little put out by the line of questioning. You see she had as of yet not checked out the site again so was not aware just what her alternate self had written at the bottom of it, this overall was a slightly bad thing, after all it allowed him to have one...errr... that is to say that that allowed him to know her better than.. oh screw it! He knew her better right now then she did which only one other person had accomplished.

Heero smirked as much as he was allowed to following the 'perfect soldier' hand book. That book really was a nifty thing at times. Almost as nifty as Wufei found 'justice and honor for dumbies'. Although he admited that if Rei adn Makoto ever found Wufei's book and where he got it that the book would probably be torched in a second. "Hn..." was heero's responce to her question though.

Tasha now sighed, then moved away and then eyes Heero and got a pleading look on her face. "Heero, be a dear and teach me how to use the guns.... pretty please?" she asked, while hopping up an down almost acting like Duo.

Heero eyed her, then pondered the possible implications of this act if he agreed to it. He figured that she might need to protect herself, after all if she couldn't fire a weapon and an OZ soldier came onto their hiding place that she would need to know how to defend herself. After all, OZ soldiers were not exactly known for being the most honourable of soldiers. And so he nodded and led her to the guns once more and the shooting range.

Meanwhile over with Duo who was now just floating in the pool another flash of light appeared, and Kellie fell out and landed in the pool wearing a white dress that seemed to have a tail attached to it and cat ears on her head. No doubt the idea of Tasha's alternate author-self's imagination. Sadly though Kellie did not seem to be paying all that much attention where she landed and ended up landing right on Duo's stomach making both of them go under the water only to come up sputtering for breath and then notice one another. It was then that Kellie decided to give a hapy little screek and glomp onto Duo.

Duo, suitably surprised recoved quickly and dragged Kellie out of the poor then bounced happily and kissed kellie delacately on the lips...

"Hmmm... lets see I think I'll keep Kellie there, but should I have Heero and my alternate love one another or shall I make it they don't... so many choices, so many choices...." Author-Tasha continues to mumble on like this for some time while cursing self mentally for taking so long with this chapter.
