This is an Alternate Universe... a Place where the Angels of Fate are in the Gundam world... and have always been there. They have watched as the Gundams won and prevented war, and admired them for it. Now, they have made it to the top ranks of Preventors... just as the Gundam Pilots join them. Those in the hierarchy of the Preventors pick code names... the others keep their last names. The two groups have not yet met. The events in Project Midnight never happened.

Ok, you're here... here we go.
Preventer Inferno (civilian name Maggie Santini ) snapped open her eyes precisely 2.6 seconds after her alarm went off. She slammed it shut and nudged the girl in the bunk below her, Preventer Tsunami ( civilian name Jessica Joyu ) with her foot.
"Get up," she muttered.
Jess slapped her foot in answer and leaned over to the other bed between the two bunks.
She poked Preventer Blizzard ( civilian name Amanda Carrington) in the shoulder. When that didn't work, she pulled off her covers. Amanda shivered and opened her eyes.
"Get up," Jess got out.
"Go to hell," sighed Amanda as she leaned over and hit the breathing lump under the covers better known as Preventor Earth ( civilian name Bridget Rowe).
"Pidgit, move your ass," she mumbled, turning back over in time to snicker as Maggie climbed out of her bunk... literally.
Maggie flipped her off as she pulled on her khakis and went to help the others wake Preventor Monsoon (civilian name Julie Harris).
After about fifteen minutes, the five girls left their room, heeled boots clicking in perfect time to the food hall. Maggie, Julie, and Amanda had their hair braided, but Bridget and Jess had short enough hair to just clip it back.
"Why is everyone here?" asked Bridget in a half whisper as she saw the food hall.
"Duh, Pidge," drawled Julie excitedly. "The Gundam pilots arrived last night. They've joined the Preventors! Look!"
Sure enough, the five men were seated at a table in the corner. The five girls watched quietly as the DeathScythe pilot... Duo Maxwell... kept stealing food off of the Shenlong pilot's plate without him noticing. The other three noticed, however, and amusement was in their eyes.
Maggie was the first to turn away. "I don't see the fuss," she shrugged. "If they work well, then they'll be an asset. If not..."
"They'll be discarded," came the voice of their superior, Lucrezia Noin/Peacecraft.
"Good morning, Lu," said Amanda in a whisper as she snapped her a salute, following proper protocol. Lu gave her one back.
"Good morning, indeed. The Lady wishes to see you five." At seeing the dismayed expressions, she added, "After breakfast, of course."
"Yes, ma'am," said Maggie with a hint of a smile. Lu returned it.
"Have a nice day, ladies."
"You, to-"
A small scuffle at the back corner table caught their ears, and the six of them turned on a dime to see the braided pilot in a headlock, his mouth full of bacon only for an instant. Then he swallowed and smiled up at the Shenlong pilot, who looked about ready to kill him and was screaming in what seemed to be Cantonese, although the street slang was slightly too new for the girls.
Lu motioned to Maggie. She nodded and marched over, stopping directly in front of the two.
"Excuse me," she said icily.
They both looked up, smile dropping from Maxwell's face.
"Is that proper decorum?"
Duo smiled again and shrugged. "Sure."
"No."
"Why not?"
"Because you'll be gone in a week if you behave in such a manner!" she snapped angrily, turning and marching away.
"I give them half a week," she said to the other girls as she approached.
Amanda snorted. "After that display, I give them..." she checked her watch, "...eleven minutes."

"Good morning, ladies," said Lady Une, rising behind her desk. The girls covered their shock at seeing four of the five Gundam pilots and one other new cadet near her. The boys watched in admiration as the girls snapped simultaneous salutes.
"Lady Une, ma'am."
"Sit down."
They complied.
"Now, L- Preventers Fire, Water, Wind, and I have discussed this at great length, and we've decided it's time you girls received partners. However, we'd also like to make this a... training experience. Therefore, we will pair you each with one of the new cadets. Preventor [Sally] has already been assigned one."
"Preventor Blizzard, you'll be with Cadet Connor Winner. (A/N: Connor is Quatre's cousin.) Preventor Earth, you'll be with Cadet Quatre Winner. Preventor Inferno, with Cadet Trowa Barton. Preventor Monsoon, with Cadet Duo Maxwell." Julie suppressed a smile.
"And, Preventor Tsunami, with Cadet Heero Yuy. You start work together tomorrow. Good luck. You are dismissed."
The girls and guys measured each other up once more before leaving. The girls started off in the direction of the training room. Curious, the boys followed.
A/ N: All right, what do you guys think?
