Gundam Wing: La Femmes
A Fanfic by Lady Lye
(c)2001
Rated for strong language on behalf of the characters. Remember- it's not the author w/ the potty mouth-it's her potty-mouthed characters.
Disclaimer: I do not own the whole GW thing... If I did I sure as h*ll wouldn't be here wasting my time writing fanfics about them- I'd be using them as my you-know-what slaves per my latest obsession. So don't try to sue me- it ain't worth it.
Note: rough translation for my rough use of Spanish can be found at the bottom of the chapter. This will include all previous phrases.
Author's Note: Man, it's been a LONG time since I posted anything for this... long for me, anyways. School's been rough. Can you beleive that this is chapter 21? And I'm still bubblig over with ideas!! Plus plans for a sequel if I haven't alienated all my reviewers by then for writing something so insanely long. Enjoy!!

I don't care what anyone else calls you- you are my Thanatos. You've been looking at other girls? I'm glad you realize that my dress is better. (I've been saving it for a special occasion…) Or I would have had to Shinigami you- yes I know what it means!!
I can believe that you missed me- but not as much as I've missed you. Everything reminds me of something I could say to you, but you aren't here.
Actually, Isa didn't get the chance to say anything. I came inside to write to you before she could. I wouldn't dare tell her she's losing her edge though, she's still too sharp!
We've upped things here, you know why. We haven't heard anything yet, we're keeping a lookout. Don't suppose you and your pals would know anything, would you? Any help's appreciated. Looks like we may be in this for the long haul.
Always smile. I tried to braid my hair yesterday, but it reminded me too much of you. So does strawberry ice cream. You owe me a cone, buddy. I'll come to collect soon, don't you worry.
Please keep the others there smiling as well- we girls can keep our spirits up, but I worry about you gloomy boys stuck in that big house all by yourselves. I know you can do it.
Thanatos will live again, eh?
I promise,
Kyla

"Boxers or briefs on that one, amiga?" Isabel pointed.
"Briefs," Andria said immediately.
"Definitely briefs," Relena agreed.
"Ooh- he's got NICE abs…" Andria murmured and they all three stared at a VERY nice-looking guy walking by.
"Nah, I like that one-" Relena picked out a guy handing a rose to his girlfriend.
"We'll never get decent boys at this rate…" Isabel muttered. "All the good ones are already taken…"
They sighed as one.

Author's Note: Hah. And you thought I was seriously going to introduce MORE triangles to the story? Not a bad idea- but not for right now. We'll do that later. I promise. *wink* For now let's just work with what we have, eh?
__________________________________
Andria Ntengi, intent on her purpose, expertly hacked her way into network after network, searching for any clue that might help. She hadn't realized, or had chosen to ignore, that the sun had started to set hours ago. The only light in the office was from the monitor.
Shyly, Kyla opened the door. "Andry?"
"What?" Andria asked absently, still typing.
"Find anything?" Kyla came in to look over her shoulder.
Andria sighed and rubbed her eyes, trying to see the normal world clearly again. "Nothing. That guy's systems are hidden better than any I've ever seen."
"Have you found anything at all though? What about outside threats?"
"I wasn't looking for them," Andria shook her head.
"Estelle's in her office doing almost the same thing- she's researching. Trying to find out all she can from what's been officially released," Kyla leant against the desk, shifting her weight.
"What'd she find?"
"That he's your typical dictator- miserable as a kid, oppressed by a stereotype and now he thinks that taking over the world will be his revenge. Just so happens that he's starting with Relena," Kyla shrugged. "He thinks that her idea of peace is foolish, and that it's going to take a harsh, oppressive and violent hand to tame the world. Relena is everything that he's not. So she's his target."
"Just what we need- a maniac," Andria said bitterly. She sent the computer into sleep mode. "What time is it? I'm starving."
"I came to get you for dinner," Kyla smiled.
"Good. Hacking is hungry work," Andria smiled back.
They went downstairs and sat at the table where the Dames, Hilde, and Relena ate. Estelle and Raisa were already there, talking about what Estelle had found. Moments after they sat, an angry Isabel stormed in, being followed by Relena, who wouldn't meet anyone's eyes, and Hilde, who looked just as angry as Isa, but refused to show it as openly.
The other Dames looked at them in confusion, but said nothing. Relena would speak in her own time.
"I want to thank you all for everything you've done over the last month…" Relena began once the food was out. None of them had touched it.
"Get on with it and tell them," Isabel demanded tersely.
Relena glanced at her, not pleased at being rushed. "I recently received a message from-"
"From the hibrido," Isabel cut in heatedly.
"From Markiah Chisholm," Relena sent her a quelling glare. "He's threatening to invade. He demands that we surrender at once or be annihilated."
Kyla rolled her eyes. "Is there no originality anymore?"
"This is serious, Kyla," Andria said sternly.
"Oh, come on! He sounds like a nutter!" Kyla replied. (AN: mebe Estelle should have said this… It's sorta British, but a Scottish lass could easily say it, too… Another word for 'nutcase' or 'psycho' etc.) "What's he doing, taking this straight from 'how to take over the world in thirteen easy steps'?"
"That's not the point, Kyla," Estelle said firmly. "He has armies. He runs a nation. He recently lead the rebellion to take control of this nation. He has people who will listen to him when he tells them to attack us. HE IS DANGEROUS."
"We can't ignore it," Andria agreed.
"I don't know what action to take," Relena looked at them each in turn.
"If you try to surrender again-" Hilde warned.
"I won't do that. I can't." Relena agreed. "But I'm wary of starting a battle. Sank is still a symbol of peace and we mustn't tarnish that reputation.
"You won't have to," Raisa said simply.
"The Dames are officially a rebel group hiding out in Sank. We support Ms. Relena in all her endeavors, but understand that we may never officially support her, as that would contradict what she stands for. Therefore, we have made it our mission to protect her and the Kingdom whether she likes it or not, but it is clear that we have no official approval from her at all," Andria said. She and the other girls gave Relena smug looks. They had agreed to this plan only a few days ago.
"But-" Relena paused. "Everyone will know who you are… I know who you are. And I approve of many things that you do… The war against MarieMaia showed me that sometimes you have to fight to preserve peace," she said with determination.
"Doesn't matter," Estelle shrugged. "We work without needing your approval."
"Cool," Hilde said. Relena still looked uncertain.
"Alright, enough," Isabel said, pulling out a map of the world. "To make this believable, we can't be seen coming and going from here all the time-"
"Coming and going?" Relena and Hilde blinked in surprise.
"Well we sure can't stay in one place if this guy's got as many global contacts as Estelle found," Kyla stood to help unfold the map.
"What are you saying?"
"We're leaving for separate posts," Andria told them.
"Markiah has allegiances with practically everybody," Estelle used her knife to point out points on the map. "Enough people to worry about anyway. These allegiances range between outright assistance in times of war to simply allowing him to manufacture weapons. Most of all are the manufacturers… Corrupt officials have allowed themselves to be bribed into allowing it, no matter the aims of their nation's people or leaders. Several colonies build MS' for him. In Eastern Africa are still more manufacturing plants. Alliances with these European nations will make it extremely difficult for us," she traced a semi-circle that seemed to lead directly to Sank. "In South America is the central military compound. In Asia are the training grounds for his soldiers. They're taken there to train as soldiers and then brought back to him to fight. He's obviously been planning this for years and years," she said sadly. "As for all the nations he's allied with- there are way too many of them for us to find them all."
"I claim the African MS plants," Andria said, her eyes promising vengeance on this man who had dirtied her homeland.
"I'd rather stop this at the source- put me down for the training grounds," Isabel shook her head.
"I've always wanted to see the Amazon," Estelle said thoughtfully. She marked large circles on the map.
"You said earlier that colony L2 had some suspicious activities on it," Kyla said.
"Yes, but it's highly top secret- I don't have the same hacking skills Andria does," Estelle told her.
"I'll go there," Kyla said firmly.
"And you, Raisa?"
Raisa bit her thumbnail, thinking. "Is it really wise of us to leave Relena all alone?"
"Not all alone," Hilde said defensively.
"Sorry, Hilde, but you're not nearly as well trained as we are," Andria apologized on behalf of the girls.
"You want to stay?" Estelle turned to Raisa.
"Yes. I'll stay and keep things secure here," Raisa agreed. "Maybe I can even scope out this Europe situation."
"Then it's agreed." Estelle made a final mark and folded up the map.
"Thank you," Relena said gratefully.
"Stop thanking us!" Kyla said sternly. "This is what we DO, Relena! We're your friends now- you don't need to thank us for every little thing!"
"Anybody else realize we were eating?" Hilde suggested. They all paused and mini-sweatdropped. They settled in to eat before things got any colder. It would be their last meal as a group for quite some time.
