For Halloween I'll Be….
Chapter 3
By: Leo-chan
A.N. –
Yes! It's the long awaited Chapter 3!! I'm sorry for such the long wait. I've been having problems getting over a certain problem called laziness. o.-
Also, I'm sorry, but the G-boys aren't showing up this chapter. Don't WORRY! I /swear/ to all of you, they will be in the 4th installment of the story. ^^
I forgot to mention how quotes and stuff will be.
" " is talking.
' ' is thinking.
( ) are A.N. from me. ^^;;
Disclaimers are as follows: The only things of Gundam Wing and Sailormoon that I own, are the DVD's and the movies, some figurines and a few poster. I, BY NO MEANS, own the rights to these series.. ;_; I wish I could though. *sigh* Oh well, to the story mobile! :P

The next week- (A.N.- There's a reason I didn't write the scene when they learned more about Duo… it's because I was feeling lazy.) ^^;;
Duo stood in front of his bathroom mirror and dried his long hair. It was out from his normal braid since he had just taken a shower. (*DROOL!*) He smiled in thought at his past week. After meeting at the Crown, the girls had accepted him whole-heartedly into their group. (Not that he wouldn't have it any other way, being surrounded by pretty girls.)
While he braided his hair, he recalled four of the five girls telling him that they went to Juuban High School, while the raven haired woman called Rei went to a private catholic school. Just the thought of religion didn't sit too well in his stomach for a second.
A beeping from his computer interrupted his thoughts. He walked out of the bathroom wearing a white undershirt and black biker shorts. Holding his unfinished braid in one hand, and clicking on the screen with his mouse, Duo noticed an e-mail addressed to him.
"Finally! Took them long enough to get back to me!" He finished off his braid and tied a rubber band to hold it together. He flipped the long brown braid over his shoulder and clicked on the message to read its contents.
'Pilot 02,
There is a masquerade delegates ball on October the 31st. We have reason to believe that a rebel faction will try to terrorize the delegates that will be meeting in secret in the same building. The Foreign Vice-minister will be there as well to mediate the meeting.
You're mission, should you choose to accept, is to find a way into the ball and exterminate the terrorists planning to ruin this festive delegation.
Enter this message after read.
Duo sat and contemplated on the mission that he was given. 'Well, if I go, then that means some really cute girls will be there!' He let his fingers tap on the cool tabletop surface. 'But, Relena's going. My fun'll probably be ruined when she shows up.' He leaned back in his chair and stared up at the ceiling, 'But, if Relena's going then there's a chance the other guys are going to go too!' A grin spread on Duo's face as he sat up.
"I'll do it!" He exclaimed before accepting the message and deleting it from existence. He glanced at the clock and his amethyst eyes went wide with realization.
"Oh crap!! I'm gonna be late!!" Duo screamed and began racing around his apartment to put all his school clothes on.
Juuban High School-
"Hey Mako-chan!" Minako waved from her desk. Makoto looked up from the door way and walked over towards the perky blonde who smiled happily.
"Hey Mina-chan! What's up?" Makoto took her seat besides Minako, listening to her answer.
"Oh, nothing much really. I was just wondering what we're gonna do this weekend is all." Minako stretched in her seat and idly played with a key chain that was attached to her bag.
"I know what we should do!" Makoto exclaimed. Minako's blue eyes stared up at the brown haired one excitedly, "We should go shopping and take Duo with us!"
As Minako and Makoto plotted on which stores to go into, Ami looked up from her book. She sat to the right of Makoto and settled her book onto the desk top, "But girls, isn't that a little weird? We're just going to end up using him to carry all of our bags." She stated as-a-matter-of-factly.
"No! Of course not! We wouldn't do that to him… unless he insisted, like the gentlemen he is. ^_^" Minako and Makoto giggled happily while Ami sighed in defeat. There was no winning with them. All of a sudden, the door was hastily slid open, and there standing, was Dup, who was panting and wheezing like there was no tomorrow.
"Duo!" He looked up to see all three girls' worried glances turned in his direction, "Are you alright?" Ask both Minako and Makoto. Slowly, he trudged in and sat his tooshy in the seat in front of Minako.
"Hey girls! I thought I was going to be late." He smiled reassuringly before he sunk into his chair, setting the back of his head on Minako's desk so that he could look at them, upside-down.
"Ne, Duo… we were wondering something." He blinked and urged Minako to continue, "Well, we were wondering if you would go shopping with us this weekend?" She batted her pretty blue eyes at him and smiled innocently.
'Uh-oh. Mina's pouring on the charm! That means they want a bag boy!' Inwardly he pouted while that other voice in his head said, 'Yeah, but dude, they might try on some really cool, revealing outfits! *drool*' Duo gave a non-chalant shrug of his shoulders and grinned in his oh-so-adorable way.
"Eh, sure. Why not? I don't have anything to do later this weekend."
"Yes! I'm not late!" Yelled a voice from the door. Everyone looked over to see Usagi standing there, catching her breath much in the manner Duo had been minutes before. Her hair was a mess, obviously ruined from the speed her hair was moving with her body. But, that was normal for Usagi.
"I would hope you weren't late Tsukino-san!" The Usagi and co blinked. The blonde odangoed one quickly turned on her heels to see their teacher; this young man who had shoulder length purple hair, and his face set in this never-ending smile ^_^. One would think that he couldn't see with his eyes closed. (If you can answer this question I'll give you a tiny spoiler on the Halloween outfits each person will be wearing! Although, if you want to know, you must not be anonymous! )
"S-sensei!! Gomen nasai!" She bowed before he laughed nervously.
"Yare yare! You don't have to apologize Tsukino-san!" He winked at her before making a small motion with his hand, "Although, it would be nice if you moved so that I could start class." She blushed embarrassedly and then quickly made her way towards her seat, which was right in front of Makoto. The teacher walked in smiling and stood at the head of the class, "Ohayo class!" He greeted.
"Ohayo sensei!" Replied the class with a smile.
"Alright everyone! Sit down and I'll be taking the roll!" He took out the roll sheet and began calling out names, signifying the beginning of the day.
"And that's how the Tokugawa Period ended!" All of a sudden, the lunch bell rang, signifying the time to finally chow down! "Ok, class. Have lunch and we'll continue the move through the Meiji Era!" Everyone got up from their seats and gathered their lunch bento's together as they filed out of the classroom.
As our favorite group began walking outside, Usagi looked up sheepishly at Makoto and gave her that oh-so-familiar look. Makoto rolled her eyes and then glanced down at the blonde girl.
"Usagi-chan. Why can't you just remember to BRING your lunch like everyone else?" She scolded. They all sat down underneath their favorite tree, "This is the third time this week.. and it's only Wednesday!" Usagi gave a large pout and scooted closer to Makoto.
"B-but Mako-chaaaaaaaaaaaaaan! You love me don't you?" She poured out the tears and turned on the puppy dog eyes to help aid her in this situation. Makoto sighed and gave in, handing Usagi the extra rice balls and yakitori she had made just for her.
"Here Usagi." Usagi's eyes brightened considerably as she chose to glomp Makoto, who smiled in returned.
"Thank you Mako-chan!" She began devouring all the food she had come to possess.
"Hey ladies! How's it going?" Everyone looked up to see Duo standing there with his trademark smile.
"Hi Duo!" Minako patted the spot next to her. Makoto glared jealously as Minako winked in triumph. Duo made with being ignorant and sat down besides Minako. (After all, you lose points w/women if you make it known that you know about the rivalry. ^.~ )
"Ne, Duo-kun…" Everyone looked at Usagi who had finished part of a rice ball, "What are you thinking of dressing up as for Halloween?" Duo stared at her for a moment before looking up in thought.
"Well, I'm not really sure. Why? Do you already have a costume?" Usagi nodded with her bright smile, "Really? What?\
"I'm going as She-ra!"
* Author gives you a few moments to laugh….
Yes. She is very serious about She-ra.
*Back to the story!
All of a sudden, everyone began to laugh as an image SD-Usagi dressed up as She-ra, trying to pull down the almost see through white skirt and pull up the low cut bodice from showing too much cleavage. Usagi blushed embarrassedly and pouted.
When everyone finally calmed down from their sudden jolt of laughter, Minako looked up and asked curiously, "Then, who's going as He-man, Usagi-chan? She-ra isn't complete without her twin brother!"
Usagi let that thought wander for a second through her mind before she answered truthfully, "I guess, I'll just have to go without my brother there then!
Duo gave a little frown. He began to try and think of a way to get Usagi a He-man to compliment her costume in repentance for laughing at her choice of costumes. (Seriously! It's no fun without the twins!) Finally, it dawned on him. The guys were showing up soon! Of course!
'Perfect! I'll get him to do it! I'm sure he won't mind one bit!.. Ok.. he might be a little uncomfortable showing off his body, but it's nothing the great Shinigami can't work with!" Duo reached over and placed a hand on Usagi's shoulder with a grin.
"Don't worry Usagi! I'll find you a He-man!" She stared at him with a curious look on her face, "My friends are coming down soon and I can convince one of them to be him!" Everyone else stared in awe at Duo's statement. Usagi was the first to speak.
"Duo-kun, are you sure? I wouldn't want to trouble you…" Duo waved a hand dismissingly at her and winked.
"Think nothing of it! You ladies deserve any help from yours truly!" The girls smiled at him adoringly/gratefully as the end-of-lunch bell rang.
"Come on Minna!" Said Ami as she stood up from her spot, "We have to get to class!" All of them sighed and began putting their bentos up.
They all stood and began walking towards the school doors along with everyone else who was outside. As Duo reached the first floor hallway, he felt a hand lightly touch his arm.
"Are you sure Duo-kun? You don't have to help me." Duo smiled at the meek voice and turned his head to smile at Usagi with a grin.
"Yeah! I'm sure! Don't worry about a thing and leave it all to me…."

A.N.-
Leave it all to me he says. *sigh* Ah well! It's the end of the story!
BTW, I was telling the truth when I said take a guess at who the teacher is. He doesn't really have a part in the story, but, I just want to see who can guess correctly. I really would like it that if you guess you log in, but, if you can't, please just leave your e-mail and I'll e-mail you if you have it right ok? ^_^
As I said before REVIEWS ARE COMPLETELY AND TOTALLY WELCOME! :D
