"Do you think it will work?"
"I don't know, that's the whole point."
"Will you two shut up and just finish sending it already!"
"Hey, did you mail the package?"
"Yes, and I checked the postal system, the package has arrived this morning."
"Alright, good, and the email is sent now too."
"How long till we send the next one?"
"At least a day."
"Alright, hack into the camera system, we don't want to miss the results."
Five old men in white lab coats chuckled among themselves and stared at a computer screen. On the screen, video from an odd angle taken from the upper corner of a room where a small camera had been hidden was playing. A few boys were wandering around doing different chores. One who was dressed all in black with a long braid came into the room.
"Hey guys, I just finished cleaning the bathroom." Duo smiled happily as he wiped his hands off, showing the pride he felt at finishing his chore for the day.
"Hmph." Heero returned to vacuuming the living room, thoroughly annoyed that Duo had finished before him, it was the first time that had ever happened. Quatre rubbed vigorously at a spot on the counter that just plain refused to come off and didn't notice the entrance of his comrade. Trowa and Wufei continued their respective chores, doing the dishes and dusting the furniture.
"I hate this house.ahhh..ahhh..chooo!" Wufei muttered and sneezed, before glaring at the dust covered bookshelf that he was faced with.
Duo just laughed and fell down on the couch with a content sigh. That is, until his foot was hit.
"Oww! Heero, why'd ya go and do that for?" Duo rubbed his foot on the side that the vacuum had abruptly slammed into and stuck his tongue out at the Wing pilot.
"You've got mail!" Duo looked over at the cheerful sounding laptop at its announcement and jumped up to see what they had gotten.
Knock knock. Looking at the door, Duo stood in between the two.
"Quatre, would you get the door?"
"Sure Duo."
Duo whistled a quiet tune as he opened the email and noticed one of the false addresses that the doctors went by when they needed to send them information.
"Eh, what's up Doc?" The humor was lost on the other pilots as they came around Duo to see what important information the email had to offer. The door closed as Quatre came towards them, looking confused and with a small box in his hand.
Mission: test strength enhancing pills. One per pilot. Effects will last for one day. Report back after the effect has worn off.
Duo looked over at Quatre, who in turn looked at the small box.
"How do they do that?" But before Quatre's question could be answered, Heero took the box from his hand and opened it up. Five small pills lay in a layer of cotton. Heero picked up one of the half blue, half yellow pills and swallowed it without a thought. After a moment, the other four pilots followed suite and gulped down their pills as well.
The pilots looked at each other briefly before passing out.
* * * * * "awwww." Duo moaned as he woke up. He was confused. What had just happened. It must have been some strange effect from the drug. 'I wish they'd warn us about side effects.' Duo looked to his left and saw Quatre's blonde hair sticking out from his curled up form. 'Still asleep.' Duo poked the pilot's back and saw his stir slowly awake. When he sat up and faced him though, Duo leapt back. 'What the.?'
Quatre looked at him and sneered evilly. Then he looked down at himself and wondered at the large clothes he wore. They hung off of his twelve year old shoulders and his shoes felt like clown shoes to him. Then he looked up at the older boy sitting next to him.
"Who are you?" Quatre glared at the stranger who was still gawking at him with wide violet eyes. He would surely have remembered if he had met anyone with violet eyes lately.
"Quatre, it's me Duo. What's with you man, you shrunk!?!" Duo blinked for the first time since he had seen the pre-pubescent blonde and rubbed his eyes, wondering if he was still passed out. A soft sigh came from somewhere behind him, and Duo spun around, leaving the strange Quatre to twitch and narrow his eyes at being so blatantly ignored.
Chocolate brown hair stuck up strange spikes and soft sapphire blue eyes looked up at Duo. A green tanktop hung off one the boy's shoulders, the rest pooling to one side of him, and the spandex he wore were far too loose for his body. The four year old Heero blinked inquisitively at Duo who's eyes took up nearly his whole face by this point. The mini-Heero stood up, leaving the oversized tanktop at his feet and walked over to Duo, who was still sitting down, and looked him in the eye. Duo didn't know what to say to the small person before he was punched in the chin. Heero giggled and walked a few feet away, then sat down as well.
After rubbing his chin and pinching his cheek a few times, Duo looked at the final two bodies nearby. One was completely covered by a white pile of clothing. Duo moved it aside, and let out an eep at the one year old Wufei who was curled up in his outfit, sleeping quietly.
A few feet away, a nine year old Trowa sat up and held his arms out to look at the green sweater hanging off of him. His pant legs extended far beyond where his feet ended, and his uni-bang barely reached past his eyes. Quasi- Trowa looked at Duo, then Quatre, and then Heero and Wufei. Then his focus returned to the braided one, who had fallen over out of surprise. Heero and Trowa laughed at the bigger boys silliness, Quatre sneered and made some comment about waking up in the company of idiots, and Wufei opened his large black eyes and gurgled happily.
"I'm surrounded by toddler terrorists." Duo whimpered before he noticed that the pilots had started to walk, and crawl, away.
"I don't know, that's the whole point."
"Will you two shut up and just finish sending it already!"
"Hey, did you mail the package?"
"Yes, and I checked the postal system, the package has arrived this morning."
