The intro to the next chapter and the last chapter was/will be long, so we'll semi-skip it in this one. Just remember that YOU WERE WARNED!

Note: The stuff between the dashes is //thought//.

Duo:...I'm losing my favorite.....losin' your mind again......*snort* *cough* ....de dah ah ah...

Wufei: Dammit, he even talks in his sleep!! What kind of maniac sings in his sleep!?

Heero: //Silence is golden. I like gold. I like nitro-glycerin too. And magnesium. Explosives.....//

Quatre: Um...uh....oh TROWA!! little higher....uhhhhnnn...

Trowa: ^_^

Wufei: Not that you can HEAR him much over SOMEONES making out.

Heero: //Does this really beat show tunes? I guess it kind of does....//

Wufei: This is so degrading. Damn onnas.

Heero: //Is Wufei ACTUALLY making a VALID POINT? God, I'm the only sane guy here.//

Wufei: Uh..Yuy? There's a jump of kangaroos in the road.

Heero: //Oz ambush!! I will overcome ALL obstacles!! .......jump? What the hell?//

Wufei: Yuy! Aren't you going to do something? They have bikes too!

Heero: //A JUMP of kangaroos. Trippy. Oh yeah, overcoming obstacles, right.// *whips out bazooka from shorts* *starts driving faster*

Wufei: O_O How the hell....?

Heero: I WILL SURVIVE!!

Heedless of the fact that he was still inside of the car and it was still doing 85 miles per hour, Heero hit the trigger. The massive explosion didn't shatter the glass and much as it DISSOLVED it, and the giant, smoking fireball tore through the first kangaroo's posse of bike-riding, gun-toting 'roos, not leaving any standing, or, apparently, whole and unbloody. The car streaked back several yards before smashing into a acacia tree and stopping abrubtly.

Heero: Mission Complete. *stuffs bazooka back in SPANDEX shorts*

Wufei: O_O //How the hell does Yuy get that huge gun in his spandex shorts?//

Trowa: O_O

Quatre: No Trowa~a....don't stop, more, more!

Trowa: *shrugs* *continues*

Wufei: You know, those are really nice bikes. The light brown one's bike reminds me of the one I used to ride on Earth missions.

Wufei's statement ignored the fact that most of the kangaroos were light brown in color. Meanwhile, Heero was discovering that cars that have had bazookas shot out from them tend to have problems running. Small problems like charbroiled engines, lack of hood, and boiled radiator fluid (A/N: to read this, you'd actually think we know something about cars!).

Heero: //Hn. The mission must continue.// *starts car*

Car Engine: *dies*

Heero: KUSO!! *twists key furiously*

Car Engine: *refuses to respond*

Wufei: Yuy, if you broke the car with your stupid blast.....

Heero: Goddamn kisama bakana ENGINE start already! *snaps key off in ignition* Damn!

Wufei: INJUSTICE!!! Yuy, Omae o korosu!!!

Heero: *throttles Wufei* That's my line moron!!

Wufei: Arrgh!! *jumps out of the car to avoid further throttling* Damn. *rubs neck* *regards kangaroos* They died as honorably as suspicious marsupials may. I'm jacking a bike.

Duo: *suddenly awake* Did somebody say jack? *notices Trowa and Quatre* Oh god, couldn't you WAIT?

Quatre: Hm...? *blushes suddenly* Oh, uh, good morning, Duo! Uh, how are...um...things?

Duo: Dunno, but I think we're about to jack things.

Quatre: That's awful!

Wufei: I know! C'mon, let's get out there before Wuffers takes it all! *bounces up* *hits head on roof* *ricochettes out door* Wee!!

Heero had beaten him out of the car, and had meticulously locked the door as if the blasted (literally!) piece of crap was still worth stealing. He hadn't left off swearing yet, having years of Odin Lowe's vocabularly to draw on and a stupid Oz-ish motor to rant about, but he was already inspecting someof the least-damaged models. The scene rather resembled a used bike shop in the middle of the barren deserts of Nevada, except some of them actually where still in working condition. As Heero approached them, he was suddenly passed and nearly knocked over by a blasted, bouncy, bakana, bothersome, boisterous, braided American belining past.

Duo: *pounces on the most colorful one* MINE!!! I get the shiny one! *notices it's a double* Or maybe you and Trowa would like it better, Q-man.

Trowa: *thinks of Quatre sitting behind him* ^_^

Quatre: Thanks Duo! But I found another double, you can have the colorful one.

Trowa: *shrugs* *still having double-motorcycle fantasies*

Heero: This one's mine. *gets on a black/dark gray Suzuki Katana [1]*

Wufei: Injustice! That was the last intact one!!

Duo: Ah, don't worry, Wu-man! You can ride with me!

Wufei: O_O Please, Nataku, no....no way in HELL am I getting on that hippie-drugged monster!!

Duo: Dude, the word is psychadellic, get it right. You could always stay here until See and Gel take pity on you, you know.

Wufei: O_O Fine, but I get to drive!

Duo: No way! It's mine! I nabbed it first!!

Wufei: I'm not riding behind you baka!

Quatre: Why don't you just take turns?

Duo: *evil grin* Like you and Trowa always do?

Quatre: Well...*blushes* yeah, I guess.

Trowa: ^_^

Wufei: What are you-GROSS!!! Hell no, no WAY no HOW am I getting anywhere near you now.

Duo: But _Wu-man_ you didn't seem to mind _last_ time....

Wufei: *blush* *splutter* *burn-blush* That was ONLY the night you convinced me to get both drunk AND high.

Quatre: O_O

Trowa: *smirk*

Heero: That's enough.

Wufei: DID YOU HEAR WHAT THEY SAID!?!?

Heero: Yes.

Duo: Hey, no need to be embarrased Wuffers, we're all friends here!

Wufei: SHUT UP!!

Heero: Ride with me.

Wufei: Have you NO decency, Maxwell?

Duo: Nope! But I guess the details should stay between-

Heero: Shut up Duo, he's going to kill you. *pauses* Or I'll will. Wufei, you're riding with me.

Wufei: At least I was smart enough to take of my SHOES and furthermore....wha?

Duo: See, you remember! You can't of been THAT stoned.

Heero: *strives for patience* You. Are. Riding. With. Me. Got. IT?

Wufei: WHAT? *ponders riding long distances in hot weather on a small bike shared with a strong, obsessed, suicidal/homicidal Yuy* Uh...no, I'll stay right here.

Heero: Either ride with me, ride with Duo, or call the author harpies and try to get them to give you another bike.

Wufei: Ah! That's the best idea I've heard yet. *closes eyes* *focuses* ONNAAAAAAAAASSS!!!

A cloud of dust wafts past bearing a tumbleweed. Silence reigns supreme.

Wufei: Damn!

Duo: *bored* *turns to Quatre and Trowa* Hey, did I ever tell you guys about that time me and this girl were on this nice-assed red bike and-

Wufei: Why can't I stay, Yuy?

Heero: Because you are necesary for the mission....and I don't want Duo on my back.

Wufei: Better your's than mine! You ride with Duo and I'll take yours!

Heero: *aims bazooka at Wufei* The bloody hell you will.

Wufei: *pales* Or I'll just go with Maxwell and at least live to rant about it. *mutters* Just for ONCE act human, Yuy...

Duo: ...And then I realized that she was the wrong chic and Hilde was still at the bar! *laughs*

Quatre: *smiles uncertainly* Ok...

Trowa: -_-'

Wufei: Maxwell, I'm riding with you.

Duo: O.O Really? *looks at Heero* What did you threaten him with?

Heero: Hn. *climbs on bike* Let's ride.

Duo: Hey, that reminds me of a song! *starts singing* Here we go, one more time, everybody's feeling fine! Here we go now!*gets on bike*

Wufei: -_- Injustice. *climbs behind Duo*

Duo: ^_^ Move you hands, to the beat....

Quatre: *gets behind Trowa* Yay!

Trowa: ^_^

And our heroes drive away into the sunset, that STILL isn't there (but will be soon, as the authors are still figuring out how to stop time efficiently) morale boosted to cosmic heights by the cheery (off-key) tenor and motivating lyrics of See's little sister's favortiew *NSYNC song. But what's this? A shadow crosses this bohemian scene. For the gun-toting, (former) bike-riding kangeroos LIVE, they LIVE I TELL YOU!!! Hah! Not even the superior and god-like gun-making skills of See and Gelfling, nor the markmenship of the One and Only Perfect Soldier can keep these wily marsupials down!

Twitching, blinking, the furry posse got slowly to their feet, only to discover that their vehicles were mysteriously gone....but how?

Kangaroo: Dang it, Daggy! Thause bloody, pooftahs foreigners stole our baikes!!

CD Player-Jacking Kangaroo (Daggy): *Heero-ish* Yuy. You've chosen one of the futures the Suzuki Katana showed you. Well, out of the ones it showed me, I choose this one. *shapes paw into vague gun-shape* *mimes firing it* [2]

How did Daggy know our heroes? Since when do kangaroos talk (ride bikes and carry guns)? What's with the Katana? Find out in the next exciting episode of Drag-er, I mean Australian Safari Roadtrip!

[1] A Suzuki Katana is an awesome, incredibly fast time of motorcycle, the personal favorite of the Blue Seeress. But there's something special about this one ^_^.

[2] Daggy twisted a quote from episode #40, where Melliardo/Zechs Peacecraft/Marquise anounces his joining up with the White Fang.

As/N: Neither of us have been to Australia. We think we might know people from their, but are not sure. No offense to Australia, Australians, or kangaroos is intended. We're just making htis up as we go. Don't forget to review.
