I realized that I like writing GW/SM crossovers with Hotaru and Heero in it... maybe it's because i can relate to it much better than other stories
--To SaturnActingChick: i'm not sure if it's going to be H/H....originally, that's what i wanted but when I was plotting out the future chapters...it doesn't seem to fit that much...but it probably will be....i like writing H/H fics...there doesn't seem to be enough of them

Heero looked up.
"HEERO!" Duo called again, "OVER HERE!"
Both Heero and Hotaru turned to the direction of the sound and found 4 guys running towards them.
"Heero! Relena has been looking all over for you!" Duo said, "Well, actually, she's been getting US to look for you. Where have you been!?"
Heero shrugged, "Around."
"Sheesh. Relena wants to talk to you." Duo continued.
"All right, I'll see her later." Heero said.
"Who's that?" Quatre asked, pointing to Hotaru
"I'm Hotaru." Hotaru introduced herself, "Who are you?"
"Quatre Winner, nice to meet you, Miss Hotaru."
"Duo Maxwell."
"Wufei."
"Trowa."
*Hmm...there's something about them.* Hotaru thought, *I feel like I can trust them, but still, there's something mysterious, something dangerous about them.*
Trowa watched as Hotaru furrowed her eyebrows in thought for a second and then smiled to hide her thoughts.
"Heero," Trowa said, "It's time to get back, Relena would be looking for you."
"Let's go." Wufei said and marched off.
The others followed him.
Hotaru watched in wonder as the natural surrounding of the bridge and river merged with that of a city. It was getting late and the streets light have just flickered on. *Amazing,* she thought, *This place is so similar to Tokyo.*
"Here we are!" Quatre said as they stopped at a HUGE mansion.
"Where is here?" Hotaru asked.
"Peacecraft mansion, home of the Pacifist." Duo announced, answering Hotaru's question.
"I see." Hotaru said.
As they walked in, they were greeted by an amazing site. The room they were currently in was decorated so elaborately, a King would be envious of it.
"Heero!" Relena said, "I've been looking every where for you!"
"Hnn..." Heero answered.
"We have to talk." Relena said and then noticed Hotaru for the first time, "Who are you?"
Hotaru sighed, that question was repeated so often. She heard it 3 times in the last hour and she would've heard it more if the pilots weren't together.
"I'm Hotaru Tomoe and I assume you are Relena?"
"Yes, I'm Relena Peacecraft."
There was an awkward silence.
"Come Heero, we have much to discuss." Relena said before walking away, with Heero.
Hotaru watched as Relena half-dragged Heero to the other side of the room. Trowa followed her gaze.
"They're probably talking about the war." he said.
Hotaru froze. Another war? "What war?" Hotaru asked, hesitantly.
"You don't know?!" Duo shouted, "Where have you been the past year???!"
"Umm...." Hotaru started, *This isn't the best time to tell them I'm from a different dimension here to learn about their world.* "I don't pay much attention to the world and I live in a VERY isolated place." Hotaru lied.
"I see." Quatre said as the others gave her suspicious looks.
"Well, like all the wars we have nowadays, it was started from a dispute between the colonies and earth. The representative of the colonies, Admiral Jonus, disagrees with the way the colonies and earth influence each other." Trowa explained, "And the war was started."
"Oh." Hotaru said, shocked.
"Yup, stupid reasons eh?" Duo said.
Hotaru nodded, *This is similar to the war WE had sometime ago...WAIT! What was it that Setsuna said? 'Events in every world are connected?' Could this be what she meant? If so, would the outcome be similar to that of theirs?* Hotaru's eyes widened in horror as she remembered all those innocent lives, lost because of a war.
"Are you all right?" Quatre asked
"Huh?" Hotaru wondered and then realized that she wasn't paying much attention to what they said, "Oh, I'm fine."
"Are you sure?" Duo asked, "Your eyes sort of glazed over."
"I'm all right, really." Hotaru said, trying to sound cheerful. She could feel Trowa studying her. It was strange, the silent one can make so many observations and seemed to pick out the slightest bit of 'untrustworthiness.' "So... is there a specific place I should be right now?"
"No...hey! How about site-seeing?" Duo asked, "Even though there isn't much to see...there is a MAJOR discount at a local restaurant. Wanna come?" He said that so childishly that Hotaru had to laugh.
"Sure, I'd like that." Hotaru said, "And I want to see more of your city."
Duo grinned and then looked at the others.
"I have work to do!" Wufei said hastily before retreating into another room.
"Uhh...me too." said Quatre.
Trowa just gave Duo an impassive look.
"All right, all RIGHT!" Duo shouted, "I know when I'm not wanted, sheesh. C'mon Hotaru, the food is REALLY good there." With that, he ran out of the door before running right back again, remembering Hotaru was new and didn't know the way. "Let's go!"
Hotaru just looked at him and barely managed to suppress a chuckle at his queer antics. *He's so like Usagi in some ways.* she thought.
- -- - -- -- - -- -
"HOOOOTTTTTTAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!" Duo yelled, "Would'ya hurry up? Sheesh! I never knew a person can walk so slow!"
"You.... never....told....me that....this...place....was.... miles....AWAY!" Hotaru panted, before collapsing on the ground.
"You alright?" Duo asked.
"I....was...never...good....at physical stuff." she told him, between breaths.
"Ohh...why didn't you tell me? I would've taken the car."
Hotaru glared at him. Duo merely grinned.
"C'mon," he said, "I'll help you."
After a while, Hotaru finally succeeded in breathing normally. They were walking slowly, taking in the scenary.
"It's pretty here." she said
Duo snorted, "You think this is pretty? This place just hids what is truly happening in the world."
"Excuse me?"
"You don't understand much about the wars that we had on the planet."
"Wars?"
"Yeah, plural. Don't ask me to explain, I'm never too good on this topic. Ask Heero, if you can get him to talk, you'll be surprised at how much he despises these wars."
"Oh.."
They remained silent for the walk to the restaurant and when they were there, Duo said he didn't feel like eating too much. Hotaru was worried, she had a feeling that these wars were connected to Duo and the others, it's just that they weren't saying anything about it.
"Duo...about the wars....."
"I've told you enough as it is." he snapped and then softened his tone at Hotaru's look of sudden sadness, "I'm sorry, it's just that I've told you more about these wars than I've told anyone. I don't know what it is about you, but I feel as if I can trust you. You know what I mean?"
"Yeah..."
"Let's go back." Duo said, "It's getting late."
Hotaru noticed the sky was far from darkening.
"All right."
When they reached the mansion, they found reporters and many people crowded around the Peacecraft mansion, as well as police.
"What's going on here?" Duo asked, worried.
"There's been an explosion."
