Road Trip From Hell

Road Trip From Hell

"Come on guys, it'll be fun!" Duo was practically jumping up and down on the table.

Miroki shook her head, "How will we get there?"

"Drive of course." Duo exclaimed.

The other boys were quiet; Kara was wondering what they were thinking about.

She turns to Duo, "And you came to us because…"

"Because you two girls are the best, and we thought you two should come along."

Kara eyed the other boys, "Right… Okay Duo, now the truth please."

Miroki looked at her friend questioningly.

The rest of the G-boys looked a bit worried.

Kara just crossed her arms and gave Duo her serious look.

Finally Duo sat down, "Okay, you have us. Truth is we need a guide around the place, so could you girls please, please come with us?"

Kara stood up, taking Miroki by the shirt, the two girls walked into another room.

"I take it, you had a sinking feeling about that?" Miroki asked.

"And I still do, I don't thing this is purely a social trip Miroki." Kara leaned against the wall.

Miroki eyed that room that the G-boys were sitting in, "What do you think of the problems that we'll be facing?"

"Normal problems will just be the usual when planning a trip, but…"

Miroki raised a brow, "But?"

"But, we can easily know that this is not normal. They do need guides Miroki, but not for the reason they'll giving us."

"A mission?"

Kara nodded, "My thoughts exactly, the question is, do you want to go?"

"How about you Kara?"

"I don't know, truth is, I'm guessing it's serious, so I would help them, they are, our friends." Kara sighed.

"Then I'm coming, we'll just stay out of their way." Miroki nodded.

Meanwhile back in the kitchen, Quatre was wondering if it was becoming such a good idea.

"Are you sure there isn't another way, there has to be someone else that can go." Quatre asked Heero.

Heero frowned and shook his head, "No, we need someone to show us around, it'll also give us a cover."

"But the girls?" Quatre asked with more force.

"The girls have proven time and again that they can take care of themselves. If anything happens, they might be able to get themselves out of there without much problem. Unfortunately, they seem to be the only people we can turn to right now." Trowa stated.

Duo added his two cents, "Besides we aren't going without backup, if anything happens, we have something to make sure the girls get back home safely."

"It would be foolish to do anything without thinking of their will being any how." Wufei backed Duo up.

Quatre nodded, "I hope you're right."

The sound of the girls coming back, their conversation stopped.

The girls sat down, Kara nodded, "Okay, we'll go, but someone will have to drive."

Miroki explained, "We both don't have our G2s, so we can't drive on the highway."

Trowa nodded, "That's okay, one of us will drive to Toronto."

"Also, we have to tell you girls ahead of time, that we'll be staying in Toronto for a few days." Heero added.

Miroki frowned, "What about school? This trip will take up our what's left of our Christmas break, and then the beginning of school.

Wufei already had that covered, "We already have permission to go on this trip."

"The teachers are letting us off, but in return we have to all come up with a project about our stay in Toronto." Duo explained.

"Okay…" Kara nodded, "So now that's taken care of, how long?"

"Probably a week, but we're not sure." Quatre shrugged.

"We are leaving tomorrow." Heero told them.

The girls nodded, though truth be told, they were starting to have second thought about all of this. That night each person started packing for the trip.

Heero looked around his room, which in this case was pretty simple. He packed more than a week's worth of clothes, his gun, his laptop, a few disks, some papers, and some school things.

"That's it, now I just wait."

Duo was just chilling for a few minutes before packing. First he took out his cross and bible, and made a quick prayer before packing.

"Duo, here, this isn't very formal I know, but… Please make sure that this mission is a success, and if not, make sure the girls get home safely. Ahem."

Packing up, he took his school things, clothes, his gun, and lock picks.

Trowa watched as the snow fell outside his window, on his bed were the outline of a base, his gun, clothes, and his school stuff.

"No regrets."

Quatre was packing too, when he was finished, he started playing his violin, which the music fit, his mood. He had packed what he needs to plan the attack, his gun (yes, even Quatre had to carry a gun), clothes, his school stuff, and he was thinking about packing his violin too.

"I hope everything turns out okay."

Wufei was in his room, practicing katas with his sword, he was going to pack his sword along with his gun, explosives, clothes, his school stuff and a book or two.

"We better be right about these onnas."

Miroki was sitting on her bed, drawing a picture of her, Kara and the G-boys all together. Beside her bed was her suitcase ready and packed. She decided to bring a video camera with her, along with her laptop in case she got bored, or needed it. She looked at her work.

"Well, this is it, it's now or never."

Kara paced in her room nervously, wondering if this was such a good idea. She checked and double-checked to see if she had everything. Camera, her things, clothes, you know, normal stuff any normal person would bring along.

"Okay, I think I have everything, just hope nothing remotely goes wrong."

~The Next Day~

Everyone was standing in front of Kara's house. A perfect day, no clouds, and yet the girls were a bit pale. Maybe they weren't feeling well, or maybe it was because…

"Duo is driving?" Miroki asked in disbelief.

Sure the girls only heard rumors of Duo's driving ability, but it still didn't help much. This was Duo Maxwell they were talking about, and he was called the 'God of Death' for a reason.

Kara looked at the van, then at Duo, "It can't be that bad, for god's sake, if the guy can pilot a Gundam, he can certainly drive a van," she thought to herself.

Miroki wasn't as sure, "I'm going to need a will before getting into that van," she thought as she saw Duo's grinning face.

Quatre whispered to Kara, "How long is the drive?"

"About an hour and a half," she answered back.

Trowa muttered under his breath, "This is going to be a long ride."

"Injustice, I rather have one of the onnas drive than Maxwell."

Heero looked around, "Doesn't anyone else have a G2?"

It seemed like the answer was no, no one else could drive but Duo. Kara at this point wondered how Duo got his G2 in the first place. Unfortunately there wasn't anything else they could do, so they all packed into the van. Duo of course was in the driver's seat, with Wufei sitting beside him. Right behind Duo was Quatre, the following Miroki and Heero. Trowa and Kara played it safe and decided to sit right in the back of the van.

Sometime later, the van was going down the highway. With some scared passengers in the back, Kara tapped Miroki's shoulder, pointing to the front, Miroki nodded.

"Duo…" Miroki tapped on his shoulder.

Duo was listening to music.

"Duo…"

Still listening to music.

"DUO!"

The car swerved, "Hey! Don't do that Miroki, you startled me."

"Turn down that music," Miroki growled.

"Okay, gee, what is it?" Duo asked, turning down the music.

Kara spoke up, "Slow down Duo, we're going to hit Toronto…"

Duo suddenly hit the brake on the van, everyone lunge forward.

"Traffic," Miroki finished for Kara.

Kara checked her watch, "I told you we should have left sooner. We'll be stuck here for a good whole hour."

Heero looked over Wufei's shoulder, "Isn't there another way around?"

"Nope," Miroki shook her head.

~An Hour Later~

The van pulled up to the hotel, everyone got out to stretch. It was a relief to get out of there.


"Finally! Didn't think we'd get here," Duo took a big stretch.

Miroki got up and whistled, "We're staying here? It's big."

Kara nodded, "So, what's the room set up?"

"Well, you and Miroki will be staying in one room, and we'll be staying in another. The rooms are connected by a door so if you need us just knock," Quatre explained.

Duo grinned, "Only this time, there's a lock on the door, so you have to knock."

"I think they are now scarred for life, from that truth and dare game," Miroki whispered.

Kara just giggled.

They got in, in record time, unfortunately for the girls; they weren't going to rest any time soon.

"Alright! Now let's go around town!" Duo yelled.

"You must be kidding, we just got here," Miroki pulled Duo back down.

Kara leans against the wall, "So, what do you want to check out?"

Heero just stated, "The outskirts of town."

Kara and Miroki glanced at each other, but didn't say anything.

So here they were, driving around the outskirts of Toronto, Quatre was driving. The girls rarely went to the outskirts of Toronto, but it was a change of pace at least. Kara explained to the G-boys about the different places, Miroki noticed a building way out in the middle of nowhere. Though Miroki knew very well it wasn't there before. As they went back into the city, they decided to stop to grab something to eat before going on again. Once they got back into the hotel the girls decided their next course of action.

"So, what are we going to do tomorrow?" Miroki asked.

Kara searched around for some soda, "Well, it depends on what happens. If the boys are with us tomorrow then we'll go to the CN tower, if not, then I want to visit Mama."

Miroki watched her friend, "Mama?"

"Huh? That's my term for Grandma, at least that's how I think you should say it, my Chinese is really bad."

"I know what you're talking about, but I don't know her!" Miroki explained.

"Oh, well, she's this nice, old lady I visit, she's the reason why I'm learning Chinese, but like I said it's really bad. Anyways she happens to know about what goes on around here, so maybe we could ask her about that new building we saw earlier today," Kara got out two glasses.

Miroki takes a glass, "Uh huh… So that's the game plan?"

"Yep!"

"Will someone tell me again, why we are doing this?" Miroki asks as she pours herself some Root Beer.

Kara pretended to think for a minute, "Because somewhere inside of us, there are crazy girl fans wanting to get in on the action?"

"You had too much sugar didn't you?"

Kara grinned, "Three packs of pure sugar, makes Kara less nervous."

"But also makes Kara very hyper. Didn't anyone tell you that curiosity killed the cat?"

Pouring herself some Coke, "Yea, but curiosity killed the cat, not the insane girls."

"………"

Kara just shrugged before gulping down her Coke, "Seriously though Miroki, we are going to have to tell them sooner or later."

"Tell them what?"

"That we know. I mean, come on Miroki! You know as well as I do, we both could rattle of information about the G-boys, it would make their heads spin," Kara poured herself more Coke.

Miroki took a sip of Root Beer, "Not only would it make their head spin, Heero would have our heads."

Meanwhile, in the boys' room, the pilots were getting ready for their mission.

Duo looked around the room, "Uh… Guys are you sure it's okay to leave everything like this? What if the girls come in?"

"Maxwell, the door is lock, you're not suggesting they could pick the locks are you?"

Trowa looked up from his work, "I wouldn't put anything pass those girls right now."

"Not you too, Trowa, these onnas don't know, and they won't find out," Wufei scowled.

"Don't be too sure of that…" Trowa muttered.

~Morning, Next Day~

Miroki woke up the next morning to find that the pilots had left a note under their door. According to the note, the G-boys they wouldn't be back for a whole day, and that girls should go on without them.

"Kara, wake up! It seems that the boys had gone, so they should be back by the afternoon."

Kara muttered from her pillow, "If they're lucky."

"Have some faith, they are Gundam pilots," Miroki pointed out.

Getting up, Kara looked into the mirror, "Put it mildly, one of these days we are going to have to tell them."

"Didn't we already talk about this?"

Kara mocked a glare, "Yes, but really Miroki, I bet anything if we rattled off their stats one by one, they'd freak."

Miroki gave this evil grin, "I have no doubt of that in my mind."

"I hope they're alright…"

Somewhere else, say, a base of some sort the pilots were having a slight problem.

"We're in a bit of trouble here," Duo looked around for a place to hide.

Wufei growled, "A bit Maxwell?"

"They were expecting us," Trowa muttered.

Quatre frowned, "We better spilt up."

Everyone nodded.

Back in the heart of Toronto, Kara and Miroki were paying a visit to Mama. Miroki wrinkled her nose, the place was kind of dim, and she could smell Chinese medicine the minute she stepped into the apartment. Kara didn't seem to notice, which suggested that it always smelled like that. A lady was sitting in front of a TV, knitting something.

The lady looked up and spoke to them in Chinese, "Ah, hello Kara, I see you brought a friend with you."

Kara took a seat in front of Mama, "Yes, this is Miroki Sekkio."

"Hello," Miroki took a seat beside Kara.

"So, is your family taking a trip here Kara?" Mama asked, knitting.

"No Mama, I'm here with friends."

Mama smiled, "Why aren't they here?"

Miroki spoke up, "They have some business to take care of."

Kara changed the subject, "Mama, I have a question to ask you?"

"Oh?"

"There is a new building on the outskirts of Toronto, could you tell us about it?"

Mama frowned, which was strange because she rarely did, "I do not like those people."

"What people?" Miroki questioned.

"The people in the that building you girls are talking about. Do not like them at all."

"Why not?"

Mama scoffed, "They have no respect, they just came one day, and soon that building was there. They come into the city, in their uniforms."

Kara and Miroki echo in unison, "Uniforms?"

"Yes, uniforms, like they were from the military, do not like them at all. It's peaceful in this country, to is anything military is out of place here."

"But surely Mama, that they can not be military people," Kara replied.

"True, not our military, but they look it. No one but their own is allowed in their building. Some say they carry guns."

Kara and Miroki looked worrily at each other.

Mama continued, "Something strange is going on, all of these strange sightings, and attacks. Most of them happen near where you live, do they not?"

Kara nodded, "Yes, Mama."

"These people will bring nothing but trouble, I'm sure of it. Do not trust these people, but I do trust the other kind."

Miroki looked confused, "The other kind?"

"Yes, they too dress in uniform, but they are nice, respectable people. A lady, a doctor, called herself Sally, came by here the other day. She's so nice, yes a really nice person."

Kara smiled, "Thank you so much Mama."

"Your welcome, and Kara?"

"Yes, Mama?"

"Be careful, okay?"

"Yes, Mama."

As they walked back to the hotel, the girls were since trying to make sense of what they had just heard. There was just more questions than answers right now, and they were sure it wasn't going to be the end of it.

Back in the base, Duo was pacing back and forth, in his cell. Heero was trying to figure out, what would be the best course of action, not to mention wished he had a gun with him. Things were getting bad, really bad.

It was evening; the girls were in their hotel room waiting. The boys had not returned, and they were getting worried. Miroki was sitting on the edge of her bed, frowning, and staring at the clock. Kara was pacing back and forth between their beds, every once in awhile glaring at the door which separated their rooms. Finally after half an hour of pacing, Kara couldn't take it anymore. Briskly walking over to a drawer, she looked around till she found a small box full of Miroki's bobby pins.

"Kara, what are you doing?" Miroki watched her friend.

"I am going to find out where they went to."

Taking a bobby pin Kara walked over to the door, kneeing she picked at the lock, till she heard the wonderful sound of the door being unlocked. Grinning from ear to ear, she opened the door and walked in, with Miroki following closely. Inside, the room looked something out of those old war movies, well almost. On the bed were plans for the base; on the desk was Heero's laptop, in the corner of the room some leftover explosives, among other things.

"It would be safe to say that they got caught," Miroki stated walking over the Heero's computer.

Kara looked over the plans, "So what do we do now?"

"Do what any friend would, we bust them out."

Kara eyed the maps, "How? We need a way to get in."

"Does those plans say anything?" Miroki started typing on Heero's computer.

"There are vents lending in and out of the place," Kara studied the map, before pointing to a certain spot, "Here would be our best bet."

"Great, this shouldn't be a problem."

Kara frowned, "Well, there's one problem."

"Oh?"

"No guns, we don't have any, but…" Kara looked at the corner, "We could use those explosives for a distraction."

"Probably more than that, the boys were supposed to destroy the base, know anything about explosives?"

"Not a clue, but, I think I know how to turn to," Kara said thoughtfully.

"Before you try anything, could we not tell the boys it's us till after we get back safe and sound?"

"Okay, so I'll get these people to keep our secret for a while."

Meanwhile, Milliardo, Noin and Sally were sitting talking over what had been happening for the past few days.

"So, has anything been decided?" Sally asked.

Noin shook her head, "We're getting close, but we don't want to make any mistakes right now."

"Then why are you and Milliardo here?"

Milliardo spoke up, "The pilots brought along two girls, if they don't come back, Noin and I are suppose the make sure they get back home safely."

Sally perked up, "They don't know?"

He shook his head, "They don't have a clue about the pilots, to them, the pilots are just fellow students."

At that moment Sally's phone rang.

"Hello, Sally Poe speaking. Hello Mrs. Wong, is there something I can help you with?"

Kara takes the phone from Mama, "Hello? This is Kara Winters speaking, is Mr. Peacecraft and Miss. Noin with you?"

Sally frowned, "Yes they are."

"I need to talk to them."

Sally handed the phone over to Noin, "It's for you, from a Kara Winters."

Noin grabbed the phone, "Kara?"

"Hi Miss. Noin, look the G-boys aren't back yet, and we think they're in trouble. Do you think you could help us with the leftover explosives they left in their room?"

Milliardo watched as Noin's jaw dropped to the table, "G-boys? Explosives? Trouble?"

Kara got a bit nervous, "Well… We didn't tell them that we already knew about them, but they need help, so could you please help us?"

Noin tried to calm down, "What do you mean 'knew about them'?"

Miroki this time took the phone, "You see, we in private, and out of earshot of the boys, call them G-boys, which stands for Gundam boys."

Kara could just imagine Noin really losing it, as she heard, "Gundam boys?!?!?!"

"Hehe, well, we're Gundam Wing fans, so we always knew, we just never told them, always, are you going to help us or not?"

~Midnight~

In the darkness of the night, the girls went for the base. Making Mama, promise not to tell their parents about this, which for some reason, she promise she wouldn't. While making Sally, Noin and Milliardo promise not to tell the G-boys that they knew about them, till they told the boys themselves. Both girls wore loose black clothes provided by Sally, along with black caps to cover their eyes. Miroki made it so that her hair would hide under the cap, if you didn't know any better, you'd say they were boys. Right were Kara said it would be, was the vent leading in, Kara had chosen that place, because she was sure it wasn't heavily guarded. Crawling through the vents wasn't very hard, it fact it was pretty easy if you thought about.

In the cell, Duo had finally stopped pacing, but it was getting late. Knowing the girls, they would be wondering where they were.

"If we ever get out of this, we'll need a pretty good excuse," Duo thought to himself.

All of the pilots looked up to the sound of fighting outside, and the sound of people getting hit. The door opened to reveal two boys dressed in matching black clothes and caps. One of the boys smiled from ear to ear, bounding up to Quatre, "Quatre! You're alright."

While the other slapped himself on the forehead.

The girls were lucky to surprise the guards, it took a bit of hot wiring, but they were able to open the door. Unfortunately, Miroki just had to go up to Quatre Not that Kara wasn't happy too, but still. Kara groaned slapping herself on the forehead, grabbing Miroki before she could hug Quatre. Heero glared at the girls.

"Who are you, and how do you know Quatre?" he growled at them.

Kara pulled the cap over her eyes, "We were sent to bust you guys out of here, come on. We aren't sticking around."

Miroki nodded, "They'll know soon, so we better jet."

Quatre and the other followed as the two boys ran out of the cell. Quatre knew that they weren't telling the whole truth, but then again, what could you say to two guys who are saving you? Before they could get down one hallway, alarms went off, throughout the base. Both boys cursed under their breath. They all stopped, Duo watched them as the one boy with green eyes pulled out a detonation device.

The other boy turned to them, "Be prepare to run."

Soon explosions could be heard, as they ran for dear life. It reminded Duo of the first time Heero had busted him out of a base. Unfortunately the next corridor they were running down had soldiers there. One boy jumped up and gave two soldiers a good roundabout kick to the head, while the other took the third down by decking him. Heero took the fallen soldiers' guns, giving one to Duo and Trowa. Everyone turned their heads back from the way they came, as shouts for someone giving orders could be heard. Another detonation device was pressed, and fire from down that way could be seen.

"Come on."

They all keep running, while one boy talked to the other.

Kara and Miroki were panicked, they had planned to get out the way they came, but it looked like they would have to find another way out.

"Tell me, you know another way out," Miroki shouted.

Kara nodded, "This way, follow me, just keeping setting off those explosives each time we clear a corridor."

"Duck!"

Everyone dropped to the ground as a hail of bullets met them. Heero started shooting back, followed by Trowa and Duo. Kara crawled on her belly to a near by wall.

"Hand me the last explosive!"

Miroki handed the last one to her. Kara set it down, this time using the timer, she signaled for everyone to move back. Everyone ran, with Kara close behind as the bomb went off. Duo grinned as he saw the hole in the wall, leading to the outside.

"We're out of here!" Duo shouted.

Sometime later, actually a long time later, everyone arrived back at the hotel room safe and sound. With Sally, Noin and Milliardo waiting for them. Duo thumbed towards the girls.

"Thanks for sending back up," he said.

Noin smiled, "Well, they asked us for help, but they wanted to help you guys."

Trowa frowned, "Oh?"

The girls grinned at each other before Miroki spoke up, "Well, there is something we have to tell you guys."

Heero started to reach for his gun, "And that would be?"

Miroki took off her cap, letting her raven black hair fall down. There was a stunned silence; Quatre stared at Miroki in pure shock.

Trowa finally pieced it together, "If that's Miroki then…" he pointed to Kara.

Kara smiled, before taking off her cap, "That's right."

"Are you telling me, that the girls busted us out?" that was more of a statement than a question.

Kara took a deep breath, "Not only that, but there is something that Miroki and I need to tell you. Maybe we should all sit down."

Wufei nodded, "You have a lot of explaining to do."

"You have no idea Wufei, no idea."

Author's Note: Hehe, finally I did it, but that won't end there. Just the beginning of something more.

Thank you Female Mewtwo for all of your help, support, and your character Miroki Sekkio. Let's see, the part of nearly blowing their cover was her idea, among other things. She's the best.

So what do you think will happen next? How are the boys going to take this? What new adventures will lie ahead, and how is this going to effect their friendship or relationship? Next time on Wing School!
