Chapter Seven
"Heero!" Relena didn't bother to mask her happiness over seeing
the stoic, handsome, brown haired young man. Heero glanced at her as
she came bounding down the long, wide staricase at the entrance to the
massive Sanq palace, her golden honey brown hair flying around her.
He had meant to look away after that first glance, honest, he had, but
somehow his gaze stuck, and he couldn't look away from her radiant
face.
"Ms. Relena, it seems the Pilots have brought with them a
friend," Dorothy told the younger girl, nodding to Kitten, who clutched
her Katana case, containing her dragon blade, close in front of her.
She smiled shyly at the breathtakingly lovely young woman before her,
whom she immediately recognized from the tapes of the speeches she had
watched when staying with the boys.
"Vice Minister," Kitten nodded politely and accepted the hand
that Relena held out, and shook it firmly. Relena smiled and retured
the shake warmly.
"Call me Relena, please; I get enough of that stuff from the
ambassadors and colony leaders. I don't need it from those I wish to be
friends with."
"Then I'm Kitten," The girl smiled. "Kitten Smith, but you can
call me Kit."
"Then Kit it is," Relena agreed. "Come, I'm sure you're all
tired and hungry; lunch is already waiting in the gardens." She turned,
and fell into step with Heero, and Dorothy fell back slightly to chat
with Quatre.
Grinning with amusement as she surveyed her guest's positons,
Relena's eyes began twinkling; It had not escaped Relena's notice the
way the young men -even Heero- stood around the short girl of maybe
seventeen.
While to anyone else the boys' stances may have seemed
perfectly normal, Relena had known them all too long and too well not
notice -while Kitten probably did not notice- the slight posture
changes that meant the former Gundam Pilots were quite protective of the
girl.
Relena grinned and nearly laughed as she corrected her
thoughts; Wufei, Trowa, Quatre, and Heero's protectiveness might be
subtle and unnoticed, but Duo's certainly wasn't! He was watching the
sweet faced girl like a hawk, and glaring at anyone who looked at her
wrong.
Relena chuckled, and when Heero glanced at her, she only
shook her head.
Presently, they came out through a pair of large, sparkling
clean french doors and into a massive, perfectly kept and
breathtakingly lovely garden. A true back-to-life Eden.
"Kamisama..." Kitten breathed with a low whistle. "Relena...
its... its beautiful!" Relena grinned.
"I like it," She said. "It helps me bleed off some stress
whenever life gets a bit too overloading."
"I know how that is," Kitten nodded absently, still taking in
the dazzling scenery.
"Please, luncheon is waiting over this way," Dorothy said,
touching Kitten's elbow and waving to a place hidden by a facy gazebo.
"Hey Relena," Kitten suddenly said slyly, glancing at the
Sanq Princess, remembering what the woman had said about stressful
life.
"Yes, Kit?" Relena asked, raising an eyebrow as she recognized
the tone.
"Race ya!" Kitten laughed as she dashed forward, tagging
Relena on the shoulder. Relena blinked in surprise, then, laughing
merrily, kicked off her pumps and charged after the miscievious blonde.
"C'mon, Dorothy!" Kitten called over her shoulder. She spotted
Relena gaining on her, and squealed, and picked up her pace. Dorothy,
eyes lit like lamps, kicked off her own high-heels and ran across the
perfectly manicured lawn in her nilons.
"Did...did that just happen?" Quatre blinked. Duo, hands on his
hips, threw his head back and laughed.
"I never thought I'd see Relena Peacecraft and Dorothy
Catalonia playing tag barefoot on Pagen's lawn." Trowa said, grinning,
his voice rather amused.
"Hn." Was all Heero said. Duo thought for a moment, then
grinned impishly.
"Translated, that means 'I think Relena looks really hott
running around in nilons and no shoes,'" The self proclaimed human
Shinigami wiggled his ears, then promptly squeaked in fear and jumped
behind Quatre, using the Arabian boy as a human shield from the
legendary Heero Glare of Death.
Suddenly, in complete unexpectedness, Heero smirked.
"You're good at translating, Duo." Was all he said, monotone
-of course- and went on ahead.
*thump*
*thump*
*thump thump*
When the girls looked back over their shoulders during their
race, they saw four former Gundam Pilots passed out cold on the lawn,
and Heero walking towards him.
Had Relena not known the man for as long as she had, she would
not have recognized the positively smug look on the Perfect Soldier's
face.
Kitten raised an eyebrow, but decided to say nothing. She did,
however, pull a camera out of her pocket and take the liberty of
creating an entire shoebox of blackmail.
"That one with Wufei on top of Duo will come in handy," Dorothy
observed conversationally.
"I thought so," Kitten agreed casually as the two devious
females went to join a hysterically laughing Relena a few feet ahead.
Just to top off the beginning of that afternoon, Kitten
suddenly, in a burst of speed, ran past the two in a blur of red. When
Relena, Dorothy, and Heero looked, a smug Kitten stood leaning on a
small white lawn table laden with snacks.
"I win the race," She proclaimed, her face the typical
expression for a cat.
()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()
"Should we have them taken inside?" Relena asked nearly an
hour later as a few servents took away the dirty lunch dishes. Kitten,
full and pleasantly satisfied by the half pound chocolate cake she had
eaten on her own, glanced to where Relena was looking at the still
unconscious pilots.
"Yeah, probably," The memory-less blonde girl yawned,
stretching. Again, she got a miscievious look in her eye, a look that
Relena and Dorothy had begun to become wary of.
"Just make sure its an 'onna' that carries Wufei in." Kitten
giggled impishly as Relena groaned and Dorothy burst out laughing, and
slapped Kitten a high five.
Dorothy suddenly squealed in delight. "Oh, I have the most
devious idea!" The woman giggled. Inwardly, Relena was surprised. She
didn't know Dorothy knew *how* to giggle. The Princess smiled. It
seemed this kitten girl had a talent to bring out the more fun sides in
people.
"What is it?" Kitten asked, leaning forward. Dorothy leaned
forward as well, and grabbed Relena into the trio and whispered her
idea.
"Ooooooh...." Kitten was practically bouncing in her seat.
"Dorothy, you are *so* evil, you know that! He'll kill us! But now we
have to do something to Trowa..."
"What could we do to him?" Dorothy scowled. "He seems the type
that nothing short of something catacalismic will make his jaw
drop."
Kitten suddenly grinned again, her face a perfect imitation of
a real life chesire cat. She chuckled evilly, and both Relena and
Dorothy's interests were perked.
"Oh, I don't know..." Kitten threw a cautious glance at Heero,
then looked away. "But I'll need access to you're database, Relena."
"Thats fine, as long as you stay away from certain areas,"
Relena was surprised to find she trusted the woman enough to consent.
Kitten grinned, and crossed her fingers over her heart.
"I swear it over my miscievious heart," She vowed. Relena
laughed.
"Very well, then. Now I have an idea for Quatre..." Again,
the devious trio met in a hushed circle, and had trouble not going
hysterical over the 'pacifist' Relena's idea.
"Okay, now, quick, one of us has to carry Wufei in before he
wakes up," Dorothy said, wiping tears of mirth from her eyes. All three
girls seemed to have forgotten that a very observant Heero was still at
the table, watching. On top of that, he had very good hearing; even
the stoic boy was having trouble not grinning.
"I'll do it," Relena perked. "I'm stronger than I look, and I
know he dislikes me in particular."
Kitten nodded -she seemed to have become the commander of this
'Operation Seriously Embarrass/Tick Off the Gundam Pilots'- and turned
to Dorothy to address the issue of Duo's humiliation. Dorothy, with a
wave of her hand, said she had it covered. The last two were up to
Dorothy to gather the materials, Kitten to put together, and Relena to
set up.
"Lets go," Kitten said, military leader style, pulling her
baseball cap lower on her forhead, rustling her two farm-girl braids
that hung over the front of her shoulders to her waist.
"Yes, sir, ma'am," Dorothy stood up at attention, and mock
saluted. Relena followed suit, trying not to giggle. It didn't work,
and abruptly all three of them burst into muffled girlish, devious
giggles.
As they ran towards the still out-cold young men, Heero shook
his head. He almost pities his comrades.
Almost.

"My god..." Zephra mentally buried her face in her hands in
that same, dark expanse. "Even without her memories she is still the
devious little kitty she was since we were two."
"You expected any different?" Axis was still trying to regain
control of his laughter.
"I for one was getting worried whe she hadn't been pulling any
pranks on the guys," Kiros said casually.
In their minds, they saw Zion shake his head. "Those poor,
poor souls...submitted to my cousin's devious plots..."
"They're doomed," Axis was still laughing.
"So, so doomed," Zephra agreed.

TWO HOURS LATER...
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THIS IS INJUSTICE!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Wufei
"GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Trowa
"OH, SOMEBODY!!!!!!! HELP!"
Quatre
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEE!!!!!!!
NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IT CAN'T BE!!!!!!1"
Duo
"Oh, yeah, we rock," Dorothy slapped Relena and Kitten both a
high five as four cries of anguish rang out through the west wing hall
of the Sanq Kingdom Palace.
()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()
"They got you, too, huh?" Trowa said, his voice semi-back to
normal after waking up to the most rectifying horror ever known to man
sitting on his chest; a chiuawowa. It had been even worse when he had
discovered that it was only a maniquin.
(AN: I have absolutely no idea how to spell that. Think that lil doggie
from that Toco Bell comercial.)
The pilot of Heavyarms suppressed a shudder of terror as he
sat on the couch of the small 'living room' connecting all of the boys'
rooms.
"THIS IS AN INJUSTICE!" Wufei screamed from the bathroom, where
he was vigorously scrubbing off the bright fuscia pink *waterproof*
lipstick off his face, especially keen on ridding his face of the
words on his forehead and cheeks that boldly stated; "I'm a Barbie man,
in a Barbie world.'
"At least you didn't believe you had lost the most precious
thing to you in the world," Duo pouted and scowled at the same time as
he was slumped, arms crossed, in an arm chair, a discarded wig with a
brown braid chopped off on the floor at his feet. He was lovingly and
protectively stroking his real braid.
"ON TOP OF THIS I WAS CARRIED IN BY A WOMAN! A *WOMAN!*" Wufei
added sorrowfully, yet ragingly from the bathroom once more.
"Relena, no less," Duo couldn't help it, but quickly regretted
it as a pink-lip-sticked faced Wufei came charging out of the bathroom.
Duo squeaked and bolted out the door, a nearly rabid Wufei hot on his
heels.
Quatre, despite having his face still in a bag, laughed.
Despite pleading and begging -mostly from Duo- the Arabian boy
downright, flatly refused to tell them what his torture had been.
()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()
MEANWHILE...
"Oh, this is too sweet," Kitten was thoroughly and smugly
enjoying watching the Gundam Boys's enigma on the screens of the
surveilence room.
"Sweeter than candy," Dorothy agreed, and the two slapped
high fives.
They returned to watching the screen, and all laughed again
when Duo came racing back in, Wufei right behind him.
"Hey, guys, we should be after the girls, not each other!"
The fomerly considered sweet, loving Quatre announced, standing up, the
bag on his head still firmly in place.
All four boys, including Heero who had come in at one point and
was sitting in the corner, froze, then turned to Quatre. Raised eyebrows
were seen, and Duo grinned. Wufei's face became frightening.
"I'll search the observation rooms," The chinese swordmaster
announced, and left. The other boys tallied out where they would look.
Meanwhile, still watching the screen, the girls were slapping high
fives. Again they got to see the boy surprised faces as they saw a new
side of Quatre!
"Think we got enough?" Relena asked deviously, eyes sparkling
with laughter.
"Plenty," Kitten and Dorothy both agreed, and Dorothy popped
the tape out of the recorder, slapped on a label, quickly scribbled
'Operation Gundam Embarrassment' on the white label. Relena and Kitten
both laughed yet again when they read it, and Dorothy smiled, pleased
with herself.
"Ooooh, this was so much fun!" Dorothy hugged herself. "I
haven't behaved like this since...since I was a child!"
"You mean you aren't a child? Still?" Relena faked surprise as
Dorothy's jaw dropped and she playfully slapped the Sanq Princess on the
shoulder. Kitten grinned. It made her heart warm with pride and
happiness to see such responsibility and stress ridden woman let loose
for a little while and just have fun, revealing completely different
sides to their personality.
On impulse, Kitten popped the labeled tape back in and pressed
play, and they got to laugh again as they watched, one after another,
the shocked, utterly terrified expressions of Trowa, Quatre, Duo, and
Wufei over and over.
"Uh-huh uh-huh, yeah, thats the way I liiike it, uh-huh,
uh-huh," Kitten leaped up and began to dance to the tune of one of her
favorite songs, a big, smug grin plastered to her face. Relena chuckled
and shook her head, her mussed up hair swishing around her.
"You're terrible," Was all the Minister said, laughing.
"Me?" Kitten stopped. "You mean *Us!*"
"ONNA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
"Whoops, that's our cue," Dorothy leaped up from the table.
"Cue for what?" Kitten blinked.
"To run for our lives!" Relena laughed, her eyes sparkling,
as she and Dorothy each grabbed one of Kitten's hands and pulled her
towards the door. The younger blonde caught on, and laughing, all three
of them ran for all they were worth.
As the fugitives ran down the halls at top speed, shocking
dignitaries, secretaries, Preventer officers, and some visiting
ambassadors as they did so, Kitten smiled as she once again remembered
her thoughts under the gorgoyle during a storm so long ago.
Not only was she no longer alone, she had friends, and not just
the G-Boys.
'I'm not alone!' She thought truimphantly. A shout went up
behind her, and she yelped as she and her two companions picked up their
pace when they realized they'd been spotted by both Duo and Wufei. While
she wasn't alone, Kitten, at the moment, was also running for her life!
To Be Continued...
First off, this part is dedicated to Neekabe; thanks for
noticing how hard I've been working to get these out so quick!
Anyway...
Phew! Oh, man, that was SOOOOO fun to write! I had absolutely
no intention of writting anything like this, but it just sort of ended
up that way, and there was no way I was gonna take it it out! I'd been
trying to write something like this for ages!
As for a question from 'Duo's ONLY chick' about being from
Russia, that is rather complicated. I'm half Russian, half Irish, but
I was born and raised in NYC (No, I was nowhere near the Towers at the
time of the attack, thank God above). My father, who is from Russia,
speaks almost nil English, and my mother LOVES the language, so we
spoke mostly Russian at home. It wasn't until I was about ten that my
parents started to make an effort to speak english more so I would get
better at it. (*winks at Rose-chan* Hee hee.)
But onto other matters, thank you all so much for sticking with
my story! *tears* I so appreciate it! Oh, and a BIG thankies to
'Thats-it-don't-Argue' for putting me on her Fav Author's and Story
list! *more tears* I'm so happy! *does happy dance*
Yikes, that was a long AN! Talk to you all later! Ja ne!

Chapter Seven
"Heero!" Relena didn't bother to mask her happiness over seeing
the stoic, handsome, brown haired young man. Heero glanced at her as
she came bounding down the long, wide staricase at the entrance to the
massive Sanq palace, her golden honey brown hair flying around her.
He had meant to look away after that first glance, honest, he had, but
somehow his gaze stuck, and he couldn't look away from her radiant
face.
"Ms. Relena, it seems the Pilots have brought with them a

"I like it," She said. "It helps me bleed off some stress
whenever life gets a bit too overloading."
"I know how that is," Kitten nodded absently, still taking in
the dazzling scenery.

touching Kitten's elbow and waving to a place hidden by a facy gazebo.

The pilot of Heavyarms suppressed a shudder of terror as he

"THIS IS AN INJUSTICE!" Wufei screamed from the bathroom, where
he was vigorously scrubbing off the bright fuscia pink *waterproof*

favorite songs, a big, smug grin plastered to her face. Relena chuckled
and shook her head, her mussed up hair swishing around her.
"You're terrible," Was all the Minister said, laughing.
"Me?" Kitten stopped. "You mean *Us!*"
"ONNA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
"Whoops, that's our cue," Dorothy leaped up from the table.
"Cue for what?" Kitten blinked.
"To run for our lives!" Relena laughed, her eyes sparkling,
as she and Dorothy each grabbed one of Kitten's hands and pulled her
towards the door. The younger blonde caught on, and laughing, all three
of them ran for all they were worth.
As the fugitives ran down the halls at top speed, shocking
dignitaries, secretaries, Preventer officers, and some visiting
ambassadors as they did so, Kitten smiled as she once again remembered
her thoughts under the gorgoyle during a storm so long ago.
Not only was she no longer alone, she had friends, and not just
the G-Boys.
'I'm not alone!' She thought truimphantly. A shout went up
behind her, and she yelped as she and her two companions picked up their
pace when they realized they'd been spotted by both Duo and Wufei. While
she wasn't alone, Kitten, at the moment, was also running for her life!
To Be Continued...
First off, this part is dedicated to Neekabe; thanks for
noticing how hard I've been working to get these out so quick!
Anyway...
Phew! Oh, man, that was SOOOOO fun to write! I had absolutely
no intention of writting anything like this, but it just sort of ended
up that way, and there was no way I was gonna take it it out! I'd been
trying to write something like this for ages!
As for a question from 'Duo's ONLY chick' about being from
Russia, that is rather complicated. I'm half Russian, half Irish, but
I was born and raised in NYC (No, I was nowhere near the Towers at the
time of the attack, thank God above). My father, who is from Russia,
speaks almost nil English, and my mother LOVES the language, so we
spoke mostly Russian at home. It wasn't until I was about ten that my
parents started to make an effort to speak english more so I would get
better at it. (*winks at Rose-chan* Hee hee.)
But onto other matters, thank you all so much for sticking with
my story! *tears* I so appreciate it! Oh, and a BIG thankies to
'Thats-it-don't-Argue' for putting me on her Fav Author's and Story
list! *more tears* I'm so happy! *does happy dance*
Yikes, that was a long AN! Talk to you all later! Ja ne!
