Bryn: Tada! A chapter a day, not so bad!
Mara: Don't get to happy. None of us know how long this will end up being.
Tab: I don't want it to end!
Mara: Just because you'll probably end up writing yourself in having se-
Bryn: Shut up. No s word...
Tab: Why not? I mean, we start off telling people how to say others are sexy.
Bryn: *sigh* I give up. Anyway, here's the story.

"Racy."
"Spicy."
"Carnal."
"Gamic."
"Erotic."
"Loving."
"Earthly."
"Amatory."
"Lascivious"
"Libido"
"Gender."
"Ha! I win! You used a non-adjective!" Tabitha grinned happily as Duo handed over the money. "The great Shingami couldn't think of another word that means sexy!" Even Wufei smiled when Duo could only sputter.
The six of them had been at the new safe house for only a day and already they were getting bored.
Finally Duo could speak. "I STILL think we should play strip poker!"
Tabitha smirked. "And I still think you'd leave your socks on. Besides, I doubt any of them would play."
Quatre blushed and Wufei walked away. Trowa and Heero kept amused looks on their faces.
"I'll play," said Heero.
"So will I, but I'm not very good," said Trowa.
Duo's jaw dropped. "Really?"
Tabitha slapped him. "Shut up. If we play good we get to see all of them, so don't change their minds. Of course," she grinned, "They're not very good... Well, Trowa said he isn't so I take a handicap." She took off her socks. "And Heero needs more clothes. He looses twice and the games over."
Wufei's nose started bleeding and Quatre rushed over to help. Tabitha grimaced. "Gomennasi Wufei! I didn't think you could hear... oi..."[1]
Duo had by this time fallen over in laughter and both Tab and Heero were glaring at him, while Trowa watched them all, amused.
Just then, someone pounded the door. Duo stopped laughing and everyone froze. The noise sounded again. The pilots' guns appeared in their hands and Tab reached for something to throw. The door flew open and a large mass appeared in the doorway.

Bryn: Should I continue, Should I not...
Tab: *holds gun to Bryn's head* Keep going.
Bryn: ^^;; Yes ma'am
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Tab growled, "So you finally decided to show up. Did you expect me to say something like, 'Sorry, no jobs available' or 'No, I don't want any cookies'?" A shot fired and Tab took a step back. "What's this? You rescue me to kill me?" She laughed, "possessive much?" Another shot and she fell to her knees.
Quatre spoke up. "Stop it! Why are you hurting her?"
Dr. H chuckled. "Because she talks to much. And I owed her."
"You owed me?!?! Someone's confused. As I recall," Tabitha stood and walked towards H. "I owe you..." her leg lashed out and threw him across the room. "For molesting me." She walked over and picked up his gun. "Anyone else want a history lesson?" No one moved or said a word. "That's what I thought." The barrel of the gun fell to the floor, followed by the handle. She grinned. "Ok J, I'm off my soapbox. Now can I take a nap? I stayed up just to see y'all. Feel special."
Dr.'s O and S came forward. "Overjoyed." "Tears of gratitude."
G and J were the last to come forward. "Go to bed Tabby Kat." Tab growled and her hands clenched by her sides. "Oh yes, that's right. You don't do pet names..."
"Shut up G." said J.
"You shut up J, you old fart," countered G.
"Who are you calling an old fart?" demanded H.
"J. Ya go a problem with that, geezer? G laughed.
"Why you..." S glared at G.
Dr. O sighed. "DT, dismissed."
Tab smirked, "yes sir. Others?"
"Soon." Tab nodded and disappeared up the stairs.
A few hours later the five boys entered Tab's room. Tab sat up in bed. "Aren't I allowed a nap? Oh well. What kept you?"
Duo answered. "Questioning."
"It took that long?"
"Both sides."
"Oh…"
Trowa asked the question that was on the others' minds. "You seem to have quite a history with them." Tab smirked, "You kiddin'? I was with 'em before all of ya, 'cept maybe you, Wufei."
Their conversation was cut short by a shout from downstairs. "DT!"
"Sir!"
"Come down."
"Yes sir."
Another voice sounded, "alone!"
Tab grinned. "HELL NO! I'm bringin' a body guard!" She turned to Heero. "Bodyguard?" Heero nodded and together they went downstairs.

Bryn: O.o;; Another cliff hanger…
Tab: I didn't do it.
Mara: Don't look at me.
Neva: I don't know what's going on.
Tryst: Wasn't me!
Bryn: *sigh* I give up. Please read and review.
