Chapter Eleven: Friends Don't Leave Friends Hanging, Right?
On a shuttle leaving X5452...
"So, now we have six kids to take care of for four weeks." Duo said putting Michael's carrier down. "I vote we fly a couple hours more to Quatre's mansion."
Wufei looked at Duo. "Strange."
Duo looked back at Wufei. "What?"
"That's actually a good idea." Wufei replied.
Quatre looked back at them and shook his head casually yes. He took his cellphone out of his slacks and was about to dial when Heero's cell phone went off.
Heero automatically answered it. "What."
"Heero dear? Have you found my daughter and my grandchildren yet?"
Duo moved closer to Heero. "Is that Mrs. Dorlain's voice?"
Heero pushed him away.
Duo frowned.
"...No." Heero replied.
Then Rei started to coo. Heero looked over at Rei.
"Heero? Was that a baby?" Mrs. Dorlain asked over the phone.
Heero remained silent. Duo got close to Heero's ear again. Heero growled, but Duo didn't get the message.
"Heero, you have the children now? Where's Relena?" Relena's mother asked.
"I will receive her back within two weeks." Heero replied pushing Duo away again.
"Duo, please leave Heero alone." Quatre requested.
Duo smiled at Quatre. "But it's fun to bug him when he's talking to his mommy. See how red his cheeks get?"
Heero growled.
"Heero, what's wrong?" Mrs. Dorlain asked.
Heero remained silent. Duo moved up towards Heero again.
"Heero, when are you going to bring home my new grandchildren?" she asked.
Heero shook his head back and forth. "Not right-"
Then the phone was yanked out of his hand.
"Mrs D., Duo here! Heero's heading back to Earth right now!" Duo replied.
"Duo." Heero growled.
Duo ran over behind Quatre for safety. "Yeah, you wouldn't believe how much Heero's said he's missed you."
"Duo, get away!" Quatre cried out as he looked nervously at Heero. "I'm not getting caught in the crossfire!"
Duo saw Heero start running for him. "Gotta go Mrs. D! Bye Bye!" he said as he hit the end button and ran over to the babies again. "Well Quatre, we need to cancel our plans 'cause we're going to Earth instead."
"I heard." Quatre replied.
Heero continued to walk toward Duo.
"Ah, ah, ah!" Duo warned. "Careful, you don't wanna accidently hurt the babies, right?"
Heero looked at the babies that we're circled around him. 'Smart. No wonder he wanted to put the babies there.' Heero walked casually up to Duo and put his hand out. Duo smirked triumphantly and handed him the phone, while Heero unexpectedly punched him in the stomach. Duo instantly dropped to the floor.
Heero flipped his cell phone in the air and caught it. "You forgot. I don't need room to fight."
Then, Rei started to cry. Heero stepped over Duo to reach her. He looked down at her.
Quatre looked worriedly at Heero."Heero, can you make her quiet? If not, she'll create another chain reaction."
Heero glanced at Quatre, then back down at Rei. He picked her up and she stopped crying. Then he sat her back down in her carrier, but soon after he let go she started crying again. He picked her back up.
Then Michael started crying.
Wufei came over to Duo and kicked him.
"Ow, hey Wufei! Can't you leave an unconscious guy in peace?!" Duo whined.
Wufei looked down at him. "Your boy is crying again."
Duo slowly got up to his feet, when Wufei tripped him down again.
"Hey!" Duo whined again.
Wufei just looked off into the distance.
"Up Duo." Heero stated looking at Michael. "He needs changed."
Duo's face went completely blank.
Wufei grabbed some nearby emergency storage diapers and tossed them at Duo.
Heero set Rei back down and started to leave, but she began to cry again. Heero walked back over and picked her up. She once again stopped crying. Meanwhile Duo continued to stare at the diaper in his hand. "Heero, how do you do this?"
Heero didn't reply.
"Come on Heero, you knew how to hold the tiny things, so how do you change them?" Duo asked again.
Heero glanced at Duo. "Don't assume you know me."
Duo looked down at the strange cloth. $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ $
Five minutes later...
"..."
"That's...uuhhh..." Quatre said while he looked at Michael.
"Unique." Trowa finished.
Duo looked down at Michael. "Well hey, they're on aren't they?"
The pilots looked at him strangely.
"Good thing I had duct tape." Duo replied.
"..."

Later on the pilots arrive on Earth and are now holding the carrier handles in their hands waiting for the door to open.
"Oh good, you're here!" Mrs. Dorlain cried out clapping her hands together. She moved over toward Heero and bent down. "Ooohhh, they're so precious! Hello there little ones!"
Wufei leaned over to Quatre. "Who's this?"
Quatre looked back at Wufei. "Relena's mother."
Wufei continued to look at Quatre. "Why is she talking to them?"
Quatre looked back at Wufei again. "I believe it's an earthling thing."
Wufei looked at Heero, then back at Quatre. "Why is she rubbing Yuy's head?"
Quatre looked at Heero who was starting to falter. Trowa nudged him back up.
"Ummm....I don't know." Quatre answered.
Mrs. Dorlain stopped rubbing Heero's head. "Oh, it's so sweet! Having hair just like their daddy!"
Heero regained his composure, but was still a little pink in the cheeks.
"So dear, who are your friends?" Mrs. Dorlain smiled.
"Gone." Wufei replied turning back to the rental car with Mingh Loh.
"So soon?" Mrs. Dorlain asked dissapointed.
"Yep!" Duo replied also moving toward the car with Michael. "Just came to drop Heero off!"
Trowa and Quatre moved back to the car with their children also.
Heero slightly gasped.
"Then why were you all standing in a row with your babies?" she asked.
"...fresh air." Trowa replied.
"Oh, okay then. Well, goodbye. Come visit again soon!" she waved.
Heero watched helplessly as the car took off down the street.
Mrs. Dorlain looked at Heero's expression. "I bet holding two carriers with babies is heavy, isn't it? Why don't I get you some help son?" She returned back inside her house.
Heero just gritted his teeth. "No Heero, we won't leave you all by yourself. Friends don't leave friends hanging, you know. Have a little trust man. Liars."
Then Heero saw Mr. Dorlain standing in front of him.
He reached down and took the carriers from Heero's grip. Mrs. Dorlain came back out while Mr. Dorlain went in. "Heero? Son, why won't Relena be back for two weeks?"
Heero looked at her and sighed. "She's been kidnapped."
Mrs. Dorlain brought her hand to her face and gasped. "Oh, how terrible! Are you sure you can get her back safely?"
Heero shook his head yes.
"Oh well please come inside and tell me everything." Mrs. Dorlain said moving out of view.
Heero started to move forward but suddenly felt a sharp pain in his nose right before his body make a thump.
"Dear!" Mrs. Dorlain scolded as she opened the door back up. "I'm sorry, I guess your father-in-law thought it would be ribtickling to shut the door on you."
Heero couldn't reply with his hands covering his nose, but he made a funny growling sound as he entered the house.
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ $ Some time later as the other pilots arrive at Quatre's place...
"Master Quatre! It's great to see you again!"
"How are you doing Master Quatre?"
Ummmm....great. Thank you." Quatre replied as the Maguanacs swarmed around him.
"Oh Master Quatre, you've been on such a long trip!"
"Should I draw a bath for you Master Quatre?"
"No, I'm fine." Quatre smiled.
"Are you sure Master Quatre?"
"Is there anything we can do for you Master Quatre?"
"Hey, M.Q?!" Duo shouted at Quatre. "How about a little help?"
"Oh yes." Quatre replied. "Could you perhaps help with these babies?" He asked the Maguanacs.
"Anything fo ryou Master Quatre." A Maguanac replied taking Michael away from Duo.
Duo stretched. "About time! I thought I'd never be free!"
Two other Maguanacs took Jimmy from Trowa and Mingh Loh from Wufei.
Quatre set Dominic's carrier on his desk.
"Okay Quat, where's the bedrooms?" Duo asked.
The other pilots looked questioningly at Quatre.
"Bedrooms?" Quatre said confused. "Don't you think we should help give the babies a soothing bath? Six hours is a long-"
Then Duo pulled Quatre over to him. "Quatre, let me ask you something. You have about 100 Maguanacs here who'll do anything you ask, and between them, don't you think they can take care of the babies?"
Quatre looked at Duo. "Well, yes but-"
"Then it's settled! Besides, we all have to chip in once the girls come back. Why not enjoy our two weeks off? I hear there's a great Kung Fu movie playing right now."
Wufei lifted his eyebrow. "There is?"
"Yeah." Duo replied pushing Quatre slowly out the door. "So let's go."
Quatre still seemed unsure. "Shouldn't we at least-"
Then Trowa and Wufei helped Duo push Quatre out the door.
"Everything'll be AOK Quat! Trust me!" Duo smiled.
Quatre frowned. "Like Heero trusted us?"
Duo frowned. "That was different. Besides, the babies are in the best hands. Now let's go or we'll end up getting bad seats."
Quatre looked at Duo. "Well, I suppose a couple of hours-"
"That a boy!" Duo shouted happily as they all started to walk out the door. $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ $
