Shinigami and Megami
Aria: *Dark blond hair in a braided ponytail and eyes that seem change between shades of green and blue, sits in front of Megami, her gundam, staring into space and mumbling* Duo: *Jogs in* Hi!!!!!! Aria: *Looks up at him suddenly* Oh, hi Duo. Duo: What'cha doing? *Stupid grin on face* Aria: *Smile* Oh, nothing. Just thinkin'. Duo: *Serious face* You shouldn't think too much, thinking hurts your brain, or at least mine. *Laughs* Aria: *Laughs* Don't worry, I won't over think. Duo: Ok then, if you say so. Trowa: *Came in* ... Aria: Hi Trowa. Duo: *Turns around* Trowa, buddy! Trowa: *Nods in acknowledgment* Heero: *Walks in* Duo: Won't let me get a word in edgewise like always, eh buddy? Aria: *Giggles* Quatre: *Walks in* Hi, Heero, Duo, Trowa, Aria. Aria: Hi Quatre. Trowa: *Nods again* Duo: Quatre! Buddy! Could you lend me some cash? Quatre: *Sigh* How much this time? Duo: Not much. *Big smile* Quatre: Ok. *Hands him a wad of cash* Duo: *Big, big grin, pats Quatre on the back* Heero: *Thinking: Quatre shouldn't have given it to him. He should know he'll only buy candy..* Duo: That 'oughta last me a few days. Quatre: Few days of what? Duo: Candy of course! *Laughing* Heero: *Shakes his head, since he knew that was coming* Wufei: *Walks in* Duo: *Sneaks up to Heero. Whispering so only Heero hears* Relena likes candy, chocolate I've heard. Heero: *Hits Duo* Duo: *Sniffles, then laughs. Thinking: So he does like her ^^* Heero: Baka. Quatre: That's not nice. *Shakes finger Heero* Tsk tsk tsk. Duo: Yeah He-kun, that's not nice. *Mock innocent face* Heero: Omae o korosu Duo. Duo: I'm sure she loves you to. ^^ Heero: *Growl sound* Duo: *Laughs hard* Wufei: Wait, you're talking about a weakling onna?!?! Quatre: Hey, you forget I have 29 sisters! Trowa: Not all women are weak. Wufei: You are right. Nataku was not weak. Duo: *Thinking: Then why did she die? ^^ Probably to get away from sourpuss over there. Smirks* Aria: *Stands up, makes a fist* So, you're saying _I'm_ weak?!?! Duo: *Smirks at Wufei and his mistake* Wufei: *Doesn't really notice Aria's anger* Of course. You are a woman, aren't you? Aria: Wufei, you are dead. *Takes one of Wufei's katanas out of hammerspace, and chases him with it* (A/N- If you haven't noticed, Aria can be a little..explosive.) Wufei: Stop it onna! Duo: *Falls down laughing at Wufei* Trowa: ... Quatre: ... Aria: Fine. *Puts katana back* But I'm still p.o.ed at you. *Smiles sweetly, and sits back down* (A/N- Quite a strange temperament indeed.) Duo: *Stands up smirking. Slyly* Well Wu-man I'd call her more of a kaijuu than an onna. *Starts running* Wufei: KIIISSSAAAAMMMMAAA!!! *Grabs the katana, and runs after Duo, aiming for the braid* Aria: *Laughing* A kaijuu Duo? Is that what you think I am? Duo: *Hides behind her, away from Wufei* Maybe. *Stupid smile* Aria: *Still laughing* Thanks a lot, Shinigami! Wufei: The weak onna-man hides behind the on-I mean, um, Aria. Duo: *Stands up* Hey! You take that back! Or I'll set Aria on you! Wufei: Kisama. *Puts katana away, and walks away* Trowa: ... Quatre: ... Duo: *Sticks out his tongue at Wufei* hehe Aria: Oh, I'm so proud! I, the kaijuu, get to be the bodyguard of the great Shinigami. *Bent over laughing* Duo: *Laughs* You should be. Trowa: ... Quatre: ... Heero: *Shakes his head. Mutters* Baka-tachi. Aria: C'mon Heero. You know it's funny. Duo: *To Aria, just loud enough for Heero to hear* Don't mind him, he's a little lovesick, and lonely right now. *Cracks up* Heero: *Takes gun out of hammerspace* Omae o korosu. Aria: *Laughing* Be careful, Duo, or you'll end up caring for your own soul. Duo: *Sniffle* You'll protect me won't you Aria? *Puppy dog eyes* Trowa: ... Quatre: ... Aria: *Smile* Sure. Quatre: *Wakes up from his stupor* Put the gun away Heero. He's not worth the ammo. Heero: I can always get more. Duo: *Sniffle* I'm not worth the bullet? Wufei: Duo's worth at least a bullet, Quatre. Quatre: *Shocked look* Aria: We're just teasing you, Quatre. Heero isn't gonna shoot Duo. Trowa: Maybe if you paid him back, he would be more concerned about you :P Duo: *Shocked* Cool! Trowa's tongue! Aria: *Fake puzzlement* He has one? Duo: It's the first time I've seen it!! *Chuckles* Quick take photos! *Pulls a camera out of hammerspace* Trowa: *Quickly pulls it back in and glares* Duo: *Drops it* Aww too late. Aria: It's ok, Duo. Maybe it'll happen again. Duo: *Sniffle* You think? Aria: No, but miracles happen. *Smile* Duo: *Smiles* They sure do. Aria: I mean, we did just witness one, right? Duo: I know. Aria: Hmm, it's about dinnertime. Should we order some pizzas? Duo: PIZZAA!!! Aria: *Smiles* I thought so. What kind? Duo: *Whispers to Aria* Maybe we'll see Trowa's tongue again! *Back in normal voice* Supreme!! Aria: *Whispers back* Maybe. Duo: *Goofy grin* Aria: Ok, one supreme. What about you guys? Quatre: Supreme's fine with me. Trowa: Plain... Heero: Pepperoni. Wufei: Plain. Duo: I can't wait! Yum! Aria: Ok, 2 supremes, a plain, a pepperoni, and a black olive for me. You and Trowa can share, right Wufei? Wufei: Yes. But it's a good thing Quatre gets his own pizza. If he had to share with Duo, he wouldn't get any. Aria: Be nice, Wu-wu, or I'll come after you. (A/N- hehe, that rhymed) Duo: Yeah, Wu-man be nice. *Sticks out tongue at Wufei* Wufei: Kisama. *Doesn't do anything, because of Aria's threat* Duo: *Smirks triumphantly* Aria: *Orders the pizzas. Answers the door when the delivery guy comes, and takes the pizzas to the kitchen. Puts down the pizzas* ::Everyone eats the pizza:: Duo: *Eats the leftover pepperoni, plain, and supreme pizza, and starts reaching for the rest of Aria's olive pizza* Aria: Duo! *Pushes his hand away, then picks up the pizza.* You have to ask first. Duo: *Looks confused* What? Ask? What's that? Aria: *Laughs* You can't have my pizza unless you ask, Shinigami. Duo: Ok. 'Ask'. I asked. *Reaches for pizza* Aria: *Shakes head, and moves pizza* That's not what I meant. Duo: *Sniffles* Tell me what to say before I starve! Aria: Say 'May I have the rest of your pizza, please?' It's not that hard, Shinigami. Duo: 'May I have the rest of your pizza, please?' It's not that hard, Shinigami. Aria: Duo, that's not what I meant either. And you can't have any 'til you say it right. Duo: *Whimpers* I need food. *Falls on side moaning* Aria: Well, if you want food, you need to ask properly, Shinigami. Heero: *Thinking: She sure likes that stupid nickname he calls himself* Wufei: *Laughing at Duo being 'starved' by a 'weakling onna'* Trowa: *Wondering why she keeps calling Duo, Shinigami* Quatre: He's not deadly, so stop calling him Shinigami. Aria: Stop calling him Shinigami? Why? *Slightly confused for a second* Duo: *Glares at Wu-man, and sticks out his tongue, then cringes is pain. Puppy dog eyes* Please? Let me eat? Aria: Nope. Not 'til you say what I told you to. *Smiling* Duo: *Looks close to tears* If you're joking that's cruel and if you're being sarcastic thats even worse. (A/N- One of our favorite lines.) Aria: I'm not being anything. I just want you to ask. It couldn't hurt ya. Other G-boys: *Snicker* Duo: It already is. *Sneaks for the pizza. Grabs it and runs. Starts chowing down* Aria: Hey! *Runs after him* SHINIGAMI!!! Duo: Never gonna catch me!! *Runs out of the house, and eats until there's only one slice left* Aria: *Runs, and catches him just when there's one slice left. Fake pouting* That wasn't nice Shinigami. Duo: *Smiles* I'm Shinigami, I don't have to be nice. You starving me isn't nice either. Now the guys are gonna laugh at me. *Sniffle* You can have the last piece, if you don't ask. *Evil grin* Aria: Thanks. It's so nice of you to give me back my own pizza. *Grabs the slice from him, and rips it in half. Hands half back* You have this half. Duo: That won't save your soul. *Evil smirk* Aria: *Laughs* Oh, I'm not worried about my soul. I would've given the pizza to you the second you asked the right way. And you do have to be nice, Shinigami, or Ijoufu...*Cuts off suddenly* Duo: *Totally misses her saying 'Ijoufu'* Well, then I wouldn't have to kill you to get it then, that's nice to know. ^^ I collect souls you know. *Evil smile* Aria: *Slightly confused look* Of course. What else would Shinigami do? Duo: *Looks at her confused* I don't know, what would Shinigami do if not collect souls? Aria: *Shrugs* Tease people and eat, I guess. *Smile* Duo: *Smile* I already do that. Anything else I should be doing? Aria: *Smirk* Ask for the pizza if it's Aria's. Duo: *Slaps head* I set myself up for that one. Aria: Yep. You made that way too easy. Duo: *Smiles and sneaks behind her* Aria: *Laughing, so doesn't notice his sneaking* Other G-boys: *Watching out the window* Quatre: *Almost feels guilty but watches anyway* Duo: *Sneaks and lean behind her to 'whisper' something but instead kisses her on the cheek lightly and quickly, then yanks her braid and runs, laughing* Shinigami would do that! Aria: SHINIGAMI!! *Chases after him, laughing also* Well, at least you're right. Duo: I was gonna pull it out but it was braided. And I don't mess with braids. Aria: Good. Braids are sacred. Duo: *Laughs and then falls flat on his face, anime style* Aria: *Catches up to him while he's down. Babying voice* Did the great Shinigami fall down? Duo: *Sniffle* I got a boo-boo. *Points to arm, which is bleeding, then to some glass on the ground* Itai. Aria: Let me see your arm. *Takes his arm, puts her hands over the cut, a very light purple glow radiates from her hands, takes her hands away, and runs off as soon as she let's go. His arm is completely healed* Duo: *Stares at her running* 0_0 What? What happened? *Stands up. Thinks: I shouldn't run after her should I?* Aria: *Runs in the house, and up to her room. Shuts and locks the door and windows* Duo: *Walks back to the house looking dazed/confused. Thinks: No, I don't think she would like that. *Laughs* Relena maybe, but not Aria. Smiles* Hi guys! Quatre: What happened out there Duo? Duo: *Ultra-evil grin* You're a little young for this. Heero: Just tell us, you baka. Duo: *Smirks* Maybe when you're all older ^^ I don't want to traumatize you. Shinigami is going to sleep now. *Walks toward his room but stops in front of Aria's* Aria: *In her room. Muttering* I can't believe I did that. I might as well have told him. But, then again, I had practically done that already. Maybe it would be better if I told them all. Duo: *Ear to door but can't hear. Knocks* Yo! Aria! You ok? Aria: *Looks towards door suddenly* Ano. Gomen, you can't come in. Duo: *Runs outside and climbs the tree outside her windows. He waves, sitting on a branch. Can't hear though* Aria: Go away Duo! Duo: *Looks hurt* Aria: *Goes back to muttering* I guess he does have a right to know the truth about me. And about himself. Duo: *Makes a sad face* Aria: *Not looking at him* Duo: *Debates jumping out of the tree* I can read lips you know. *Smirks and sits Indian style on the tree branch. Rests his head on his arms, looks bored* Aria: *Doesn't hear him. Still muttering* Should I tell him the truth about who we are? *Looks like she's listening to someone* Ijoufu, it would be easier if you would just tell me if I should or not, stop telling me that I have to decide. *Listening* That's not helping. Duo: *Reads her lips, and looks a little confused* Aria: Please, at least come and talk to me to my face, Ijoufu. Duo: *Starts piecing things together* ::*A braided, shadowed figure appears next to her* I have told you. You thought up this whole thing after you found out, so you have to decide. *Disappears*:: Aria: Oh, man, Ijoufu, you're so mean. Duo: *Starts to drop out of tree but grabs branch. Screams. Pulls himself up* Aria: *Hears the scream, and runs to the window. Sees Duo and opens the window* Shinigami, what the heck are you doing? Were you watching me? Duo: Um...*Sweatdrop* yes... Aria: *Moves back from the window* I guess you'd better come in and let me explain, then. Duo: *Jumps in* Slumber party! *Giggles then laughs* Aria: *Points to a chair by her desk* Sit. Duo: *Turns serious and sits* Aria: So, how much have you figured out? Duo: Well, I believe that was Ijoufu. And I have other ideas too. Like about you ^^ Aria: Yeah, that was Ijoufu. Tell me what you think you know. Duo: You are some goddess or something. Am I close? An angel maybe? Aria: You were right the first time. Megami, goddess of healing. But what about yourself? Duo: Wow, really? Me. I am Shinigami. *Stands up and looks scared-like* Aria: *Slight smile* Sit back down. I've gotta tell you a story. Duo: Do I hafta sit? *Pout* Aria: *Shrug* I guess you could stand if you want to. Duo: YAY! You can start. Aria: Long ago all the gods and goddesses lived in a different realm, and took care of the mortals. But one god became evil, and destroyed the gods' world. Duo: *Thinks: Maybe I should sit* Aria: The gods were all forced to flee to the mortal's realm. Most kept themselves as they were, but two couldn't take the change. Their spirits were seemingly destroyed. Duo: *Thinking: That doesn't sound good* Aria: But 19 years ago, their spirits were reborn in mortal forms, to eventually reawaken. You and me. We're stuck with just a minimum of our powers until our current bodies die. Duo: I guess I am Shinigami... Aria: Um hm. Ijoufu is the King of the Gods. Duo: *Sitting* Aria: Just like you've always said you were Shinigami, I always told people that I was Megami. Ijoufu and the other gods decided to tell me who I really was when I became a Gundam Pilot, and met you. And it became my mission to eventually tell you. One thing that all the gods and goddesses have in common was that they always wear a braid. Duo: That's why I always told people, DON'T MESS WITH THE BRAID!! Aria: ~And you can talk to me telepathically, if ya want.~ (A/N- ~ means they're speaking to each other telepathically. ^^; Yeah, kinda obvious.) Duo: You know, I always felt there was something special about you. Aria: *Smiles* More special then you woulda thought, huh? Duo: *Smiles* Not really. *Smiling sweetly* You always were like a goddess to me. You were everything I was not. And ya stuck up for me in front of the guys. Never seemed to be hurt. And nice to me too. ^^ Plus you've got my cool braid. And called me Shinigami so often. You were all around perfect ^^ Aria: *Smiling and blushing* Thanks. Duo: Hey, did you know your blushing? *Smiles* Aria: *Blushes even more, goes over and kisses him* Duo: *Blushes* Aria: Look who's blushing now. Duo: *Runs to mirror, blushing a deeper red. Looks at his reflection. Laughs* So much for getting rid of my emotions in training. Aria: *Laughs* Duo: Well, I guess were even now. You made me pay back for pulling on your braid. Aria: *Laughs* Silly Duo-kun. I coulda paid you back lotsa different ways. *Evil grin.* And I still will. Duo: I'm afraid, very afraid. Aria: *Normal, nice laugh* Shinigami. *Cracks up. Rolling with laughter. Stops laughing, but has big smile that shows she still wants to laugh* Shinigami, for a god of death and fear, you sure are a coward! Duo: *Pouts* Aria: Which I like. It's hard being an oxymoron. Duo: *Looks at her slyly, and inquisitively* So ya like me do ya? Aria: *Pretend pout* It wasn't obvious? Duo: Well Miss Oxymoron. *Pretend sad face, and pouts* Oxymorons can't like each other so we're doomed. Oxymorons have to not like the world and everyone else. We're double oxymorons. Aria: Double oxymorons cancel each other out, making it all right. Duo: Always positive eh? *Stands up* Well, then I guess you'll like this. *Runs over and gives her a long kiss on the lips.* Aria: *Kisses him back* Duo: *Big grin and runs and jumps out the window, cannonball style* Geronimo! Aria: *Anime heart eyes, hands clasped, hearts around her, happy anime sigh. Realizes he jumped out the window. Sad anime sigh, and slumps into the chair. Slowly gets out of the chair, and moves to lay on her bed, not doing anything* (A/N- Bit of a delayed reaction, eh.) Quatre: *Walks into the room he's sharing with Duo, yawning* Early to bed early to rise.. *Looks around the room* Hey, where's Duo? Wufei: *At his shrine to Nataku* Heero: *Cleaning one of his many weapons* Quatre: *Runs to Trowa's room, where he's sitting on a trampoline* Duo's gone! Trowa: And this is important how?... Quatre: Well,... Where do you think he is? Trowa: *Shrugs* Quatre: I think I know where he is. Trowa: Doko? Quatre: Don't you know??? Trowa: Bet he's with Aria. Quatre: I think we should look, you know just in case something happened.... Trowa: Probably should. Quatre: We should tell the others where we're going. Trowa: *Nods* Maybe they'll wanna come with. Quatre and Trowa: *Walk to Wufei's room* Quatre: *Knocks on Wufei's door* Wufei: *Opens the door, just a smidge* What do you want? *Annoyed* Quatre: Duo has gone missing and we're looking for him. Would you like to come? Wufei: *Thinks: Anything that might embarrass Maxwell* All right I'll come. *Slips out of door* Quatre, Trowa, and Wufei: *Walk to Heero's room* Quatre: *Opens the door and looks inside* Heero you here? Heero: *Puts the gun he was polishing back into hammerspace* What do you want? Quatre: We're all looking for Duo. He's missing. Heero: The baka went missing? Quatre: That's right. Heero: And you guys wanna find him. Quatre: Don't you want to know what he's doing? Heero: No. Quatre: Ok. We'll leave you to your moping. *To Trowa* Poor guy, misses you know who. Trowa: *Nods* Quatre: *Starts to walk out* Heero: Fine, I'll come with you. And I do not. Quatre: Do not what? ^^ *Continues walking to Aria's room* Heero: *Follows, angry* Trowa and Wufei: *Follow* Aria: *Now sitting Indian style on her bed* Quatre: *Knocks on her door* Aria: *Opens door* Come in. Quatre, Trowa, Wufei, and Heero: *Walk in* Quatre: Have you seen Duo? We're looking for him. Aria: A while ago. Quatre: Do you know where he went? Aria: No. Outside the last time I checked. Quatre: *Puzzled a little* We'll go check outside then. Heero: *A little suspicious of Aria* Quatre: You wanna come? Aria: *Shrugs* Sure, why not. Quatre, Trowa, Wufei, Heero, and Aria: *Walk outside, and to the garden* Quatre: Let's split up and search for him. Trowa and I'll search the garden. Wufei and Heero take the forest. And Aria can search the rest. Group: *Group nod, and everyone goes off to search. Quatre and Trowa search the garden, but don't find him there. Aria looks around a little, and doesn't find him. All three of them go back to the house* Wufei: Why am I searching this stupid forest to find that baka Maxwell again? Heero: To embarrass the baka. And maybe kill him for making us do this. Wufei: Oh yeah, that's right *Murderous intent on the mind* What should I use... katana or gun, katana or gun... hm... such a choice. Heero: Maybe we should split up. Whoever finds him first gets to kill him. Wufei: Deal. *Walks off* Heero: *Heads in the opposite direction. Goes more towards the edge of the forest. Finds Duo sitting in a tree* Duo: *Laying on a branch, looking at the moon* Heero: Duo, you baka. Get down from there. Duo: *Looks down with a classic innocent/surprised face* Why? Heero: We've all been looking for you. Wufei: *Walks over and stands next to Heero* Duo: I'm not coming down. Not for you. :p Wufei: KISAMA! Heero: Omae o korosu. Duo no baka. Duo: *In a disapproving tone, shaking finger* I don't think she would like you saying that to any one but her. *Big grin* Heero: BAKA!! Duo: *Enjoying himself a lot* Talking about your self again? Didn't she tell you not to be so hard on yourself? Heero: You are so dead Duo! Duo: Poor her, I bet you haven't called have you? *Pulls out phone, on speaker* Luckily I have her right here. ^^ Heero: *Takes gun out of hammerspace, shoot a hole through the phone* Duo: *Shakes finger* I have her on the phone at the house too. If you run, maybe she won't notice you destroyed the phone. Wufei: *Laughing, walks back to the house* Heero: -_- Shimatta. Duo: You shouldn't do that. That's her special look. I had a nice chat with her you know. Talking about how much you say you miss her everyday. She most certainly enjoyed the poetry you wrote her. So sweet. *Sniffle* How you compared her to flowers and the sky. How pretty you think she is. You know I sent her that jewelry you bought. Heero: Good thing your bodyguard Aria isn't here. I can kill you. *Takes out gun* Duo: ~Aria, could use some help here.~ Aria: ~Heero or Wufei?~ Duo: ~Heero, ^^ and boy did I get him good!~ Aria: ~So you teased him about Relena.~ Duo: ~Of course! ^^ So much fun.~ Aria: ~Good job. ^^ But sorry, I won't come help.~ Heero: It's almost a shame. You'll never see Aria again. Not that I care. *Evil grin* I hope she doesn't take it too hard. *Aims gun* Aria: ~Shinigami's gotta learn to be a little responsible and not hide behind Aria all the time. ^^ You're on your own.~ Duo: ~*Sulk* Ok~ *Stands up* Ok. You can kill me. If you can catch me. *Jumps and runs godspeed. Weaves through the trees.* (A/N- Godspeed is the speed of sound.) Heero: BAKA! *Chases after him.* Duo: *Laughs* I'm sure she's thinking of you too Heero! Heero: *Chases, can't run any faster, and is losing ground* (A/N- Obviously. ^^; It's kinda hard to keep up if the other person is running speed of sound.) Duo: *Reaches the edge of forest and is out of the tree cover. In sight of the others and is waving and smiling* Heero: *Reaches the edge of forest, still falling farther behind. Shoots. Bullet misses, and hits Aria's arm* Duo: *Is about 2 feet away from Aria. Turns around and pulls a gun out of hammerspace, and aims it at Heero* Aria: ~Duo, don't.~ Duo: ~Why not?! I wanna.~ Aria: ~You really wanna kill your best friend that bad?~ Duo: ~He's not my best friend~ Aria: ~Sure he's not.~ Duo: ~Plus, he hurt you~ Aria: ~So? I can heal it.~ Duo: ~But.. *Whine* Can I miss?~ Aria: ~Only if you miss _very_ _well_~ Duo: ~*Snaps finger* Ok...~ *Shoots and misses the head by 6 inches* Heero: You missed. Duo: You're lucky. She told me too. I almost didn't listen. *Evil/angry look* Aria: ~Good thing for you that you did listen.~ Duo: ~:P ~ Heero: She? Who? Aria? Duo: No honestly, Relena. Yes Aria, you baka. But I'm sure Relena would too. Quatre: *Puzzled* Trowa: *A little confused* Wufei: *Thinks Duo's gone mad* Heero: You're insane. Duo: Of course. You don't know. ~So we tell them?~ Aria: ~Hmm. I suppose they should know. And if I'm gonna heal this quick, they'll have to know.~ Duo: ~Oh! I almost forgot, you do that ^^;~ Aria: ~All right.~ Duo: *Puts gun back in hammerspace* Aria: *Places her other hand on the injured arm, glows purple, and after a second moves her hand away. Hand is holding bullet, and arm is healed* Quatre, Trowa, Wufei, and Heero: *Group jaw-drop* Aria: ~Take a picture, quick!~ Quatre: How..how.. Trowa: ... Duo: *Grabs camera from hammerspace and takes a picture* Yay! Proof of Trowa's tongue! *High fives Aria* I guess we should explain? Aria: *Tells the story* Heero: *Serious* Not what I thought exactly, but close. Quatre: I'm never going to get over this... Trowa: *Mouth closed glaring at Duo* Wufei: Darn it Maxwell, why can't you just be mortal like everyone else, well almost everyone. Then I'd only have to kill you once. *Thinks: Payback time* So Maxwell, what were you doing up in that tree? Besides the obvious. Duo: *Thinks: What a baka* What do you think? Wufei: *Annoyedly* With you, Maxwell, I don't want to even guess. Duo: Ok, ok. Let's see. Maybe it might have something to do with the fact that I just found out I'm a god? Not that I never thought I was anything except one. Heero: *Thinks: What a big ego* Quatre: *Thinks: Well, he did always make the claim* Trowa: *Thinks: Ask and you shall receive....I'm doomed...* Wufei: *Thinks: Now his ego will never deflate* Duo: As Heero should remember, I was talking to Relena. That took awhile ^^ Heero: *Growl sound* Duo: So many details she wanted to know. What does he like to eat. When does he wake up. ^^ Ya know stuff like that. I didn't know all of the answers though. Aria: ~*Laugh.* Duo, be nice to him for a second.~ Duo: ~*Smiles* Never. I'm not done yet.~ Aria: ~Ok. I didn't really mean it anyway. ^^~ Duo: ~That's a good girl.~ That's why I asked her to come over. She's coming tomorrow at about 10:00 am. Aren't you happy Heero? ^^ Heero: -_- Duo: *Scolding* Now what have I told you about her special look? Aria: *Laughing.* Trowa: Anybody have a watch? Aria: Um, it's 9:45 am. Heero: 9:45? Bai. *Runs off* Trowa, Quatre, and Wufei: *Walk back to the house* Duo: Aww. He misses her so much he's running to meet her. *Laughs* ~Too bad she's not actually coming ^^ He's so gullible~ Aria: ~Yeah. Would've been so great.~ Duo: Hmm *Pulls out a phone* ~Should I?~ Aria: ~*Laughs.* I think he would actually kill you this time if you do. We all know it'll work itself out.~ Duo: ~Yah, I'll cut him some slack, it's not easy being in love ^^~ Aria: ~^^~ Duo: ~And how would you know what it's like to be in love huh?~ Aria: ~*Fake pout* I guess you don't like me, then. I guess I'll just call Heero and tell him you were teasing him. You won't mind, right? You can defend yourself, right Shinigami?~ Duo: ~*Wussy cringe* Fine. I love you. Happy now?~ Aria: ~Very. Aishiteru. ^^~ Duo: *Walks over. Gazes into her eyes* ~So, ya luv me do ya?~ Aria: *Blush.* ~Yeah.~ Duo: *Leans in for a kiss* ~Hope no one's watching.~ Aria: ~Let them.~ *Smiles.* Duo: *Kisses her* Aria: *Kisses back* Duo: ~Did I tell you I loved you?~ Aria: ~Yes~ Duo: ~Well I'm telling you again. Aishiteru.~ Aria: ~I love you too.~ Duo: ~I hope I die first, I couldn't bear to have to watch you die~ Aria: ~But then I'd have to watch you die.~ ::Humming noise heard:: Duo and Aria: *Look up from the kiss* ::A small speck is coming towards them from above:: Duo: *Grabs Aria's hand and drags her away* Run! Aria: *Nods* Um hm. *Runs* Duo: Aria we have to reach our gundams! It's our only chance. Aria: We'll make it. Duo: *Hops in the Deathscythe Custom* Aria: *Jumps into Megami* Duo: *Turns on a channel to Aria's cockpit* Remember we don't know our enemy we have to be careful. And if we die, we die together ok? Aria: And we'll see each other soon after. Duo and Aria: *Fly out and scan for the enemy* Duo: *Spots it at 2 'o clock* Enemy: *Charges at Duo, saber drawn* Duo: *Pulls out his saber and counters. Opens a radio channel to the enemy* Listen, I don't want to kill you today, so maybe if you leave I'll spare you. Enemy: *Lots of static and this is heard* Command 0FCA435: Destroy enemy. Duo: A doll? *To Aria* It's a doll! A strong one though. *Still sabers pushing against each other* Aria: *To Duo* We can beat it. Duo: Listen, Aria. You have to destroy it, I can't move or it'll get me. *Feigns dropping the saber* Now! Aria: *Speeds in saber out, and strikes the engine of the doll, but the doll doesn't blow up* Enemy: Command 0FCA435: Destroy enemy; failed command 999DEA activated. Self-detonate countdown commenced. 2....1... *Blows up and it's all quiet and white light. The explosion recedes* Duo: Are you all right Aria? Aria: Yeah. You all right? Duo: I could use some fresh air. *Hops out* Ahh....Much better. Aria: *Gets out* Yeah, fresh air is great. Duo: *Looks at Aria* Are you sure you're ok? Aria: *Smiles* Yeah. Duo: Well...I guess you are. *Laughs* Guess I'm just over protective. Aria: *Laughs* That's fine with me. Duo: Let's go home. *Puts his arm on her shoulder and leads her to the house*
The End
Aria: *Dark blond hair in a braided ponytail and eyes that seem change between shades of green and blue, sits in front of Megami, her gundam, staring into space and mumbling* Duo: *Jogs in* Hi!!!!!! Aria: *Looks up at him suddenly* Oh, hi Duo. Duo: What'cha doing? *Stupid grin on face* Aria: *Smile* Oh, nothing. Just thinkin'. Duo: *Serious face* You shouldn't think too much, thinking hurts your brain, or at least mine. *Laughs* Aria: *Laughs* Don't worry, I won't over think. Duo: Ok then, if you say so. Trowa: *Came in* ... Aria: Hi Trowa. Duo: *Turns around* Trowa, buddy! Trowa: *Nods in acknowledgment* Heero: *Walks in* Duo: Won't let me get a word in edgewise like always, eh buddy? Aria: *Giggles* Quatre: *Walks in* Hi, Heero, Duo, Trowa, Aria. Aria: Hi Quatre. Trowa: *Nods again* Duo: Quatre! Buddy! Could you lend me some cash? Quatre: *Sigh* How much this time? Duo: Not much. *Big smile* Quatre: Ok. *Hands him a wad of cash* Duo: *Big, big grin, pats Quatre on the back* Heero: *Thinking: Quatre shouldn't have given it to him. He should know he'll only buy candy..* Duo: That 'oughta last me a few days. Quatre: Few days of what? Duo: Candy of course! *Laughing* Heero: *Shakes his head, since he knew that was coming* Wufei: *Walks in* Duo: *Sneaks up to Heero. Whispering so only Heero hears* Relena likes candy, chocolate I've heard. Heero: *Hits Duo* Duo: *Sniffles, then laughs. Thinking: So he does like her ^^* Heero: Baka. Quatre: That's not nice. *Shakes finger Heero* Tsk tsk tsk. Duo: Yeah He-kun, that's not nice. *Mock innocent face* Heero: Omae o korosu Duo. Duo: I'm sure she loves you to. ^^ Heero: *Growl sound* Duo: *Laughs hard* Wufei: Wait, you're talking about a weakling onna?!?! Quatre: Hey, you forget I have 29 sisters! Trowa: Not all women are weak. Wufei: You are right. Nataku was not weak. Duo: *Thinking: Then why did she die? ^^ Probably to get away from sourpuss over there. Smirks* Aria: *Stands up, makes a fist* So, you're saying _I'm_ weak?!?! Duo: *Smirks at Wufei and his mistake* Wufei: *Doesn't really notice Aria's anger* Of course. You are a woman, aren't you? Aria: Wufei, you are dead. *Takes one of Wufei's katanas out of hammerspace, and chases him with it* (A/N- If you haven't noticed, Aria can be a little..explosive.) Wufei: Stop it onna! Duo: *Falls down laughing at Wufei* Trowa: ... Quatre: ... Aria: Fine. *Puts katana back* But I'm still p.o.ed at you. *Smiles sweetly, and sits back down* (A/N- Quite a strange temperament indeed.) Duo: *Stands up smirking. Slyly* Well Wu-man I'd call her more of a kaijuu than an onna. *Starts running* Wufei: KIIISSSAAAAMMMMAAA!!! *Grabs the katana, and runs after Duo, aiming for the braid* Aria: *Laughing* A kaijuu Duo? Is that what you think I am? Duo: *Hides behind her, away from Wufei* Maybe. *Stupid smile* Aria: *Still laughing* Thanks a lot, Shinigami! Wufei: The weak onna-man hides behind the on-I mean, um, Aria. Duo: *Stands up* Hey! You take that back! Or I'll set Aria on you! Wufei: Kisama. *Puts katana away, and walks away* Trowa: ... Quatre: ... Duo: *Sticks out his tongue at Wufei* hehe Aria: Oh, I'm so proud! I, the kaijuu, get to be the bodyguard of the great Shinigami. *Bent over laughing* Duo: *Laughs* You should be. Trowa: ... Quatre: ... Heero: *Shakes his head. Mutters* Baka-tachi. Aria: C'mon Heero. You know it's funny. Duo: *To Aria, just loud enough for Heero to hear* Don't mind him, he's a little lovesick, and lonely right now. *Cracks up* Heero: *Takes gun out of hammerspace* Omae o korosu. Aria: *Laughing* Be careful, Duo, or you'll end up caring for your own soul. Duo: *Sniffle* You'll protect me won't you Aria? *Puppy dog eyes* Trowa: ... Quatre: ... Aria: *Smile* Sure. Quatre: *Wakes up from his stupor* Put the gun away Heero. He's not worth the ammo. Heero: I can always get more. Duo: *Sniffle* I'm not worth the bullet? Wufei: Duo's worth at least a bullet, Quatre. Quatre: *Shocked look* Aria: We're just teasing you, Quatre. Heero isn't gonna shoot Duo. Trowa: Maybe if you paid him back, he would be more concerned about you :P Duo: *Shocked* Cool! Trowa's tongue! Aria: *Fake puzzlement* He has one? Duo: It's the first time I've seen it!! *Chuckles* Quick take photos! *Pulls a camera out of hammerspace* Trowa: *Quickly pulls it back in and glares* Duo: *Drops it* Aww too late. Aria: It's ok, Duo. Maybe it'll happen again. Duo: *Sniffle* You think? Aria: No, but miracles happen. *Smile* Duo: *Smiles* They sure do. Aria: I mean, we did just witness one, right? Duo: I know. Aria: Hmm, it's about dinnertime. Should we order some pizzas? Duo: PIZZAA!!! Aria: *Smiles* I thought so. What kind? Duo: *Whispers to Aria* Maybe we'll see Trowa's tongue again! *Back in normal voice* Supreme!! Aria: *Whispers back* Maybe. Duo: *Goofy grin* Aria: Ok, one supreme. What about you guys? Quatre: Supreme's fine with me. Trowa: Plain... Heero: Pepperoni. Wufei: Plain. Duo: I can't wait! Yum! Aria: Ok, 2 supremes, a plain, a pepperoni, and a black olive for me. You and Trowa can share, right Wufei? Wufei: Yes. But it's a good thing Quatre gets his own pizza. If he had to share with Duo, he wouldn't get any. Aria: Be nice, Wu-wu, or I'll come after you. (A/N- hehe, that rhymed) Duo: Yeah, Wu-man be nice. *Sticks out tongue at Wufei* Wufei: Kisama. *Doesn't do anything, because of Aria's threat* Duo: *Smirks triumphantly* Aria: *Orders the pizzas. Answers the door when the delivery guy comes, and takes the pizzas to the kitchen. Puts down the pizzas* ::Everyone eats the pizza:: Duo: *Eats the leftover pepperoni, plain, and supreme pizza, and starts reaching for the rest of Aria's olive pizza* Aria: Duo! *Pushes his hand away, then picks up the pizza.* You have to ask first. Duo: *Looks confused* What? Ask? What's that? Aria: *Laughs* You can't have my pizza unless you ask, Shinigami. Duo: Ok. 'Ask'. I asked. *Reaches for pizza* Aria: *Shakes head, and moves pizza* That's not what I meant. Duo: *Sniffles* Tell me what to say before I starve! Aria: Say 'May I have the rest of your pizza, please?' It's not that hard, Shinigami. Duo: 'May I have the rest of your pizza, please?' It's not that hard, Shinigami. Aria: Duo, that's not what I meant either. And you can't have any 'til you say it right. Duo: *Whimpers* I need food. *Falls on side moaning* Aria: Well, if you want food, you need to ask properly, Shinigami. Heero: *Thinking: She sure likes that stupid nickname he calls himself* Wufei: *Laughing at Duo being 'starved' by a 'weakling onna'* Trowa: *Wondering why she keeps calling Duo, Shinigami* Quatre: He's not deadly, so stop calling him Shinigami. Aria: Stop calling him Shinigami? Why? *Slightly confused for a second* Duo: *Glares at Wu-man, and sticks out his tongue, then cringes is pain. Puppy dog eyes* Please? Let me eat? Aria: Nope. Not 'til you say what I told you to. *Smiling* Duo: *Looks close to tears* If you're joking that's cruel and if you're being sarcastic thats even worse. (A/N- One of our favorite lines.) Aria: I'm not being anything. I just want you to ask. It couldn't hurt ya. Other G-boys: *Snicker* Duo: It already is. *Sneaks for the pizza. Grabs it and runs. Starts chowing down* Aria: Hey! *Runs after him* SHINIGAMI!!! Duo: Never gonna catch me!! *Runs out of the house, and eats until there's only one slice left* Aria: *Runs, and catches him just when there's one slice left. Fake pouting* That wasn't nice Shinigami. Duo: *Smiles* I'm Shinigami, I don't have to be nice. You starving me isn't nice either. Now the guys are gonna laugh at me. *Sniffle* You can have the last piece, if you don't ask. *Evil grin* Aria: Thanks. It's so nice of you to give me back my own pizza. *Grabs the slice from him, and rips it in half. Hands half back* You have this half. Duo: That won't save your soul. *Evil smirk* Aria: *Laughs* Oh, I'm not worried about my soul. I would've given the pizza to you the second you asked the right way. And you do have to be nice, Shinigami, or Ijoufu...*Cuts off suddenly* Duo: *Totally misses her saying 'Ijoufu'* Well, then I wouldn't have to kill you to get it then, that's nice to know. ^^ I collect souls you know. *Evil smile* Aria: *Slightly confused look* Of course. What else would Shinigami do? Duo: *Looks at her confused* I don't know, what would Shinigami do if not collect souls? Aria: *Shrugs* Tease people and eat, I guess. *Smile* Duo: *Smile* I already do that. Anything else I should be doing? Aria: *Smirk* Ask for the pizza if it's Aria's. Duo: *Slaps head* I set myself up for that one. Aria: Yep. You made that way too easy. Duo: *Smiles and sneaks behind her* Aria: *Laughing, so doesn't notice his sneaking* Other G-boys: *Watching out the window* Quatre: *Almost feels guilty but watches anyway* Duo: *Sneaks and lean behind her to 'whisper' something but instead kisses her on the cheek lightly and quickly, then yanks her braid and runs, laughing* Shinigami would do that! Aria: SHINIGAMI!! *Chases after him, laughing also* Well, at least you're right. Duo: I was gonna pull it out but it was braided. And I don't mess with braids. Aria: Good. Braids are sacred. Duo: *Laughs and then falls flat on his face, anime style* Aria: *Catches up to him while he's down. Babying voice* Did the great Shinigami fall down? Duo: *Sniffle* I got a boo-boo. *Points to arm, which is bleeding, then to some glass on the ground* Itai. Aria: Let me see your arm. *Takes his arm, puts her hands over the cut, a very light purple glow radiates from her hands, takes her hands away, and runs off as soon as she let's go. His arm is completely healed* Duo: *Stares at her running* 0_0 What? What happened? *Stands up. Thinks: I shouldn't run after her should I?* Aria: *Runs in the house, and up to her room. Shuts and locks the door and windows* Duo: *Walks back to the house looking dazed/confused. Thinks: No, I don't think she would like that. *Laughs* Relena maybe, but not Aria. Smiles* Hi guys! Quatre: What happened out there Duo? Duo: *Ultra-evil grin* You're a little young for this. Heero: Just tell us, you baka. Duo: *Smirks* Maybe when you're all older ^^ I don't want to traumatize you. Shinigami is going to sleep now. *Walks toward his room but stops in front of Aria's* Aria: *In her room. Muttering* I can't believe I did that. I might as well have told him. But, then again, I had practically done that already. Maybe it would be better if I told them all. Duo: *Ear to door but can't hear. Knocks* Yo! Aria! You ok? Aria: *Looks towards door suddenly* Ano. Gomen, you can't come in. Duo: *Runs outside and climbs the tree outside her windows. He waves, sitting on a branch. Can't hear though* Aria: Go away Duo! Duo: *Looks hurt* Aria: *Goes back to muttering* I guess he does have a right to know the truth about me. And about himself. Duo: *Makes a sad face* Aria: *Not looking at him* Duo: *Debates jumping out of the tree* I can read lips you know. *Smirks and sits Indian style on the tree branch. Rests his head on his arms, looks bored* Aria: *Doesn't hear him. Still muttering* Should I tell him the truth about who we are? *Looks like she's listening to someone* Ijoufu, it would be easier if you would just tell me if I should or not, stop telling me that I have to decide. *Listening* That's not helping. Duo: *Reads her lips, and looks a little confused* Aria: Please, at least come and talk to me to my face, Ijoufu. Duo: *Starts piecing things together* ::*A braided, shadowed figure appears next to her* I have told you. You thought up this whole thing after you found out, so you have to decide. *Disappears*:: Aria: Oh, man, Ijoufu, you're so mean. Duo: *Starts to drop out of tree but grabs branch. Screams. Pulls himself up* Aria: *Hears the scream, and runs to the window. Sees Duo and opens the window* Shinigami, what the heck are you doing? Were you watching me? Duo: Um...*Sweatdrop* yes... Aria: *Moves back from the window* I guess you'd better come in and let me explain, then. Duo: *Jumps in* Slumber party! *Giggles then laughs* Aria: *Points to a chair by her desk* Sit. Duo: *Turns serious and sits* Aria: So, how much have you figured out? Duo: Well, I believe that was Ijoufu. And I have other ideas too. Like about you ^^ Aria: Yeah, that was Ijoufu. Tell me what you think you know. Duo: You are some goddess or something. Am I close? An angel maybe? Aria: You were right the first time. Megami, goddess of healing. But what about yourself? Duo: Wow, really? Me. I am Shinigami. *Stands up and looks scared-like* Aria: *Slight smile* Sit back down. I've gotta tell you a story. Duo: Do I hafta sit? *Pout* Aria: *Shrug* I guess you could stand if you want to. Duo: YAY! You can start. Aria: Long ago all the gods and goddesses lived in a different realm, and took care of the mortals. But one god became evil, and destroyed the gods' world. Duo: *Thinks: Maybe I should sit* Aria: The gods were all forced to flee to the mortal's realm. Most kept themselves as they were, but two couldn't take the change. Their spirits were seemingly destroyed. Duo: *Thinking: That doesn't sound good* Aria: But 19 years ago, their spirits were reborn in mortal forms, to eventually reawaken. You and me. We're stuck with just a minimum of our powers until our current bodies die. Duo: I guess I am Shinigami... Aria: Um hm. Ijoufu is the King of the Gods. Duo: *Sitting* Aria: Just like you've always said you were Shinigami, I always told people that I was Megami. Ijoufu and the other gods decided to tell me who I really was when I became a Gundam Pilot, and met you. And it became my mission to eventually tell you. One thing that all the gods and goddesses have in common was that they always wear a braid. Duo: That's why I always told people, DON'T MESS WITH THE BRAID!! Aria: ~And you can talk to me telepathically, if ya want.~ (A/N- ~ means they're speaking to each other telepathically. ^^; Yeah, kinda obvious.) Duo: You know, I always felt there was something special about you. Aria: *Smiles* More special then you woulda thought, huh? Duo: *Smiles* Not really. *Smiling sweetly* You always were like a goddess to me. You were everything I was not. And ya stuck up for me in front of the guys. Never seemed to be hurt. And nice to me too. ^^ Plus you've got my cool braid. And called me Shinigami so often. You were all around perfect ^^ Aria: *Smiling and blushing* Thanks. Duo: Hey, did you know your blushing? *Smiles* Aria: *Blushes even more, goes over and kisses him* Duo: *Blushes* Aria: Look who's blushing now. Duo: *Runs to mirror, blushing a deeper red. Looks at his reflection. Laughs* So much for getting rid of my emotions in training. Aria: *Laughs* Duo: Well, I guess were even now. You made me pay back for pulling on your braid. Aria: *Laughs* Silly Duo-kun. I coulda paid you back lotsa different ways. *Evil grin.* And I still will. Duo: I'm afraid, very afraid. Aria: *Normal, nice laugh* Shinigami. *Cracks up. Rolling with laughter. Stops laughing, but has big smile that shows she still wants to laugh* Shinigami, for a god of death and fear, you sure are a coward! Duo: *Pouts* Aria: Which I like. It's hard being an oxymoron. Duo: *Looks at her slyly, and inquisitively* So ya like me do ya? Aria: *Pretend pout* It wasn't obvious? Duo: Well Miss Oxymoron. *Pretend sad face, and pouts* Oxymorons can't like each other so we're doomed. Oxymorons have to not like the world and everyone else. We're double oxymorons. Aria: Double oxymorons cancel each other out, making it all right. Duo: Always positive eh? *Stands up* Well, then I guess you'll like this. *Runs over and gives her a long kiss on the lips.* Aria: *Kisses him back* Duo: *Big grin and runs and jumps out the window, cannonball style* Geronimo! Aria: *Anime heart eyes, hands clasped, hearts around her, happy anime sigh. Realizes he jumped out the window. Sad anime sigh, and slumps into the chair. Slowly gets out of the chair, and moves to lay on her bed, not doing anything* (A/N- Bit of a delayed reaction, eh.) Quatre: *Walks into the room he's sharing with Duo, yawning* Early to bed early to rise.. *Looks around the room* Hey, where's Duo? Wufei: *At his shrine to Nataku* Heero: *Cleaning one of his many weapons* Quatre: *Runs to Trowa's room, where he's sitting on a trampoline* Duo's gone! Trowa: And this is important how?... Quatre: Well,... Where do you think he is? Trowa: *Shrugs* Quatre: I think I know where he is. Trowa: Doko? Quatre: Don't you know??? Trowa: Bet he's with Aria. Quatre: I think we should look, you know just in case something happened.... Trowa: Probably should. Quatre: We should tell the others where we're going. Trowa: *Nods* Maybe they'll wanna come with. Quatre and Trowa: *Walk to Wufei's room* Quatre: *Knocks on Wufei's door* Wufei: *Opens the door, just a smidge* What do you want? *Annoyed* Quatre: Duo has gone missing and we're looking for him. Would you like to come? Wufei: *Thinks: Anything that might embarrass Maxwell* All right I'll come. *Slips out of door* Quatre, Trowa, and Wufei: *Walk to Heero's room* Quatre: *Opens the door and looks inside* Heero you here? Heero: *Puts the gun he was polishing back into hammerspace* What do you want? Quatre: We're all looking for Duo. He's missing. Heero: The baka went missing? Quatre: That's right. Heero: And you guys wanna find him. Quatre: Don't you want to know what he's doing? Heero: No. Quatre: Ok. We'll leave you to your moping. *To Trowa* Poor guy, misses you know who. Trowa: *Nods* Quatre: *Starts to walk out* Heero: Fine, I'll come with you. And I do not. Quatre: Do not what? ^^ *Continues walking to Aria's room* Heero: *Follows, angry* Trowa and Wufei: *Follow* Aria: *Now sitting Indian style on her bed* Quatre: *Knocks on her door* Aria: *Opens door* Come in. Quatre, Trowa, Wufei, and Heero: *Walk in* Quatre: Have you seen Duo? We're looking for him. Aria: A while ago. Quatre: Do you know where he went? Aria: No. Outside the last time I checked. Quatre: *Puzzled a little* We'll go check outside then. Heero: *A little suspicious of Aria* Quatre: You wanna come? Aria: *Shrugs* Sure, why not. Quatre, Trowa, Wufei, Heero, and Aria: *Walk outside, and to the garden* Quatre: Let's split up and search for him. Trowa and I'll search the garden. Wufei and Heero take the forest. And Aria can search the rest. Group: *Group nod, and everyone goes off to search. Quatre and Trowa search the garden, but don't find him there. Aria looks around a little, and doesn't find him. All three of them go back to the house* Wufei: Why am I searching this stupid forest to find that baka Maxwell again? Heero: To embarrass the baka. And maybe kill him for making us do this. Wufei: Oh yeah, that's right *Murderous intent on the mind* What should I use... katana or gun, katana or gun... hm... such a choice. Heero: Maybe we should split up. Whoever finds him first gets to kill him. Wufei: Deal. *Walks off* Heero: *Heads in the opposite direction. Goes more towards the edge of the forest. Finds Duo sitting in a tree* Duo: *Laying on a branch, looking at the moon* Heero: Duo, you baka. Get down from there. Duo: *Looks down with a classic innocent/surprised face* Why? Heero: We've all been looking for you. Wufei: *Walks over and stands next to Heero* Duo: I'm not coming down. Not for you. :p Wufei: KISAMA! Heero: Omae o korosu. Duo no baka. Duo: *In a disapproving tone, shaking finger* I don't think she would like you saying that to any one but her. *Big grin* Heero: BAKA!! Duo: *Enjoying himself a lot* Talking about your self again? Didn't she tell you not to be so hard on yourself? Heero: You are so dead Duo! Duo: Poor her, I bet you haven't called have you? *Pulls out phone, on speaker* Luckily I have her right here. ^^ Heero: *Takes gun out of hammerspace, shoot a hole through the phone* Duo: *Shakes finger* I have her on the phone at the house too. If you run, maybe she won't notice you destroyed the phone. Wufei: *Laughing, walks back to the house* Heero: -_- Shimatta. Duo: You shouldn't do that. That's her special look. I had a nice chat with her you know. Talking about how much you say you miss her everyday. She most certainly enjoyed the poetry you wrote her. So sweet. *Sniffle* How you compared her to flowers and the sky. How pretty you think she is. You know I sent her that jewelry you bought. Heero: Good thing your bodyguard Aria isn't here. I can kill you. *Takes out gun* Duo: ~Aria, could use some help here.~ Aria: ~Heero or Wufei?~ Duo: ~Heero, ^^ and boy did I get him good!~ Aria: ~So you teased him about Relena.~ Duo: ~Of course! ^^ So much fun.~ Aria: ~Good job. ^^ But sorry, I won't come help.~ Heero: It's almost a shame. You'll never see Aria again. Not that I care. *Evil grin* I hope she doesn't take it too hard. *Aims gun* Aria: ~Shinigami's gotta learn to be a little responsible and not hide behind Aria all the time. ^^ You're on your own.~ Duo: ~*Sulk* Ok~ *Stands up* Ok. You can kill me. If you can catch me. *Jumps and runs godspeed. Weaves through the trees.* (A/N- Godspeed is the speed of sound.) Heero: BAKA! *Chases after him.* Duo: *Laughs* I'm sure she's thinking of you too Heero! Heero: *Chases, can't run any faster, and is losing ground* (A/N- Obviously. ^^; It's kinda hard to keep up if the other person is running speed of sound.) Duo: *Reaches the edge of forest and is out of the tree cover. In sight of the others and is waving and smiling* Heero: *Reaches the edge of forest, still falling farther behind. Shoots. Bullet misses, and hits Aria's arm* Duo: *Is about 2 feet away from Aria. Turns around and pulls a gun out of hammerspace, and aims it at Heero* Aria: ~Duo, don't.~ Duo: ~Why not?! I wanna.~ Aria: ~You really wanna kill your best friend that bad?~ Duo: ~He's not my best friend~ Aria: ~Sure he's not.~ Duo: ~Plus, he hurt you~ Aria: ~So? I can heal it.~ Duo: ~But.. *Whine* Can I miss?~ Aria: ~Only if you miss _very_ _well_~ Duo: ~*Snaps finger* Ok...~ *Shoots and misses the head by 6 inches* Heero: You missed. Duo: You're lucky. She told me too. I almost didn't listen. *Evil/angry look* Aria: ~Good thing for you that you did listen.~ Duo: ~:P ~ Heero: She? Who? Aria? Duo: No honestly, Relena. Yes Aria, you baka. But I'm sure Relena would too. Quatre: *Puzzled* Trowa: *A little confused* Wufei: *Thinks Duo's gone mad* Heero: You're insane. Duo: Of course. You don't know. ~So we tell them?~ Aria: ~Hmm. I suppose they should know. And if I'm gonna heal this quick, they'll have to know.~ Duo: ~Oh! I almost forgot, you do that ^^;~ Aria: ~All right.~ Duo: *Puts gun back in hammerspace* Aria: *Places her other hand on the injured arm, glows purple, and after a second moves her hand away. Hand is holding bullet, and arm is healed* Quatre, Trowa, Wufei, and Heero: *Group jaw-drop* Aria: ~Take a picture, quick!~ Quatre: How..how.. Trowa: ... Duo: *Grabs camera from hammerspace and takes a picture* Yay! Proof of Trowa's tongue! *High fives Aria* I guess we should explain? Aria: *Tells the story* Heero: *Serious* Not what I thought exactly, but close. Quatre: I'm never going to get over this... Trowa: *Mouth closed glaring at Duo* Wufei: Darn it Maxwell, why can't you just be mortal like everyone else, well almost everyone. Then I'd only have to kill you once. *Thinks: Payback time* So Maxwell, what were you doing up in that tree? Besides the obvious. Duo: *Thinks: What a baka* What do you think? Wufei: *Annoyedly* With you, Maxwell, I don't want to even guess. Duo: Ok, ok. Let's see. Maybe it might have something to do with the fact that I just found out I'm a god? Not that I never thought I was anything except one. Heero: *Thinks: What a big ego* Quatre: *Thinks: Well, he did always make the claim* Trowa: *Thinks: Ask and you shall receive....I'm doomed...* Wufei: *Thinks: Now his ego will never deflate* Duo: As Heero should remember, I was talking to Relena. That took awhile ^^ Heero: *Growl sound* Duo: So many details she wanted to know. What does he like to eat. When does he wake up. ^^ Ya know stuff like that. I didn't know all of the answers though. Aria: ~*Laugh.* Duo, be nice to him for a second.~ Duo: ~*Smiles* Never. I'm not done yet.~ Aria: ~Ok. I didn't really mean it anyway. ^^~ Duo: ~That's a good girl.~ That's why I asked her to come over. She's coming tomorrow at about 10:00 am. Aren't you happy Heero? ^^ Heero: -_- Duo: *Scolding* Now what have I told you about her special look? Aria: *Laughing.* Trowa: Anybody have a watch? Aria: Um, it's 9:45 am. Heero: 9:45? Bai. *Runs off* Trowa, Quatre, and Wufei: *Walk back to the house* Duo: Aww. He misses her so much he's running to meet her. *Laughs* ~Too bad she's not actually coming ^^ He's so gullible~ Aria: ~Yeah. Would've been so great.~ Duo: Hmm *Pulls out a phone* ~Should I?~ Aria: ~*Laughs.* I think he would actually kill you this time if you do. We all know it'll work itself out.~ Duo: ~Yah, I'll cut him some slack, it's not easy being in love ^^~ Aria: ~^^~ Duo: ~And how would you know what it's like to be in love huh?~ Aria: ~*Fake pout* I guess you don't like me, then. I guess I'll just call Heero and tell him you were teasing him. You won't mind, right? You can defend yourself, right Shinigami?~ Duo: ~*Wussy cringe* Fine. I love you. Happy now?~ Aria: ~Very.
