Disclaimer: I do not own gundam wing or any of its characters. I also do not own Felina or Jasmine they were so gratefully lent to me by my dear role-playing friend Ashley.
Claimer: I DO own Fiora and JinChi, so please don't use them unless you ask me first, thank you.
Warnings: possible death-scenes ahead, blood and gore, and lots of final Character-growth before the ending!
I would like to thank everyone once again for all of the reviews; my goal for the end of this fic would be to have as many reviews (if not more) as I have chapters.
I would also like to say that this is your last chance to vote on any of my fic ideas, so, at the end of this chapter I have listed my fic ideas (which any of my fellow authors are welcome to use if they ask) some of which you have seen and some of my new ones.
Hopefully this will actually be the last chapter to this series and then I'll finally be able to take a breather. When I first started this fic it was more for my own enjoyment then for anything else (I had a really boring summer that year).
I thank you all for your time, your reviews, and your interest in this fic. I can promise you that the ending is well worth the long wait!

Chapter 20
"Chwun? CHWUN! …No…" Wong cried as her friend passed away. Vaguely she noted that the momentum of her jump was gone and gravity was starting to work against her, pulling her back down to the earth. She, numbed to the point of being dead as well, could barely hear the screaming from below for Hawkeye to catch her before she, too, met her end.
"There's not enough time! You're not gonna make it!" Fiora yelled as Duo was scooped up by his winged companion and whisked away, off to try and save the Chinese woman from meeting a rather unpleasant end.
"I still have to try!" Duo called back before murmuring words of urgency into what he supposed was Hawkeye's ear, making the eagle screech and push himself to move faster towards their target.
*****
Swords clashed and sparks flew from their contact, nether of the blondes were going to give in. Though outmatched in physical strength by the young king, princess Dorothy made up for in sheer magical prowess. And so, they were virtually in a stalemate. At least they were, until Chwun's wails broke Quatre's concentration, causing him to let his guard down long enough for Dorothy's long sword to impale him in the chest. Quatre's eyes widened at the shock of the pain as he sunk to his knees, grasping the wound with his free hand and using his sword as a brace to keep himself from falling over as the dizziness from the sudden loss of blood overtook him.
Dorothy's lips were stretched into a malicious grin as she let his body slide off of her blade like warm butter off of a not knife. "It looks like you lost your bet, KING LOSER!" she laughed, playing off of his dead father's name, Winner, Quatre's last name (way back when, there was no such thing as a Surname, most of the time children's "Last names" were actually their Father's first names. This wasn't changed until long after the time period that I'm going for).
"No… You're wrong Dorothy…" He wheezed.
"WHAT?" she glared down at him.
"You. Are. Wrong. I won after all. You're crying." Quatre coughed as he forced a smile from his bloody lips as a small droplet of salty water trickled down the side of Dorothy's face.
Instinctively, Dorothy lifted her free hand up to her face only to feel the moist trail that the tear left in its wake. She gasped at the realization.
"I…told… you… so…" Quatre said weakly as he collapsed on the ground, his sword falling next to him, forgotten.
"No…. NOOOOOOOOOOO!" She screamed as she dropped to her knees beside him and wept bitter tears into her bloody hands. "Don't die, Quatre. I'm sorry! I'm so, so, sorry! I'm sorry…" she murmured over and over again as his body began to become cold as its life-force drain away.
*****
Jasmine looked up a took a shaky step away from the weakened bowman, towards the burning mountains and whispered, "Quatre, oh dear, sweet, kind Quatre. It can't be true, it just can't! You can't have died, not now!"
"Jasmine? What, what is it?" Felina asked from her spot near Trowa's side, unable to move because of having to support his extra weight and because of Trowa's unwillingness to budge, unless absolutely necessary.
"Quatre, he…he's dead…" she replied, her voice failing her as her hands trembled, making her staff shake also.
"Oh my god! Jasmine…" Relena said as she hugged the raven-haired princess, who could only cry into the other's shoulder, leaving a wet spot on the lavender dress, absent mindedly she realized that the Honey-blonde woman's robes changed colors, mostly sticking to the pale pastels such as light blue, pink, and yellow.
If Fiora was listening to the others, she gave no indication; as she was still watching the large eagle zoom across the sky to the small, pin-top sized, dot that continued to fall relentlessly to the ground. "Come on, come on, come ON… Hurry up will ya…? Time ain't exactly on our side here Duo…" she chanted as her nails dug into the calloused palms of her hands.
Heero, unlike the others, watched the "great animal" as it continued to hover above them. His eyes slowly changing from their rich, stormy, Persian blue, into bright, fiery, glowing, Cobalt as he glared up into the beast's eyes, challenging it.
*****
When Wufei saw Quatre fall, his temper raged to a whole new level as he attacked with even greater vigor then ever before, quickly forcing Treize back into a corner. "It end's here Treize!" he yelled as he knocked the king's blade out of his hand and far out of his reach.
"So it does. You make a great sparring partner. I enjoyed fighting with you." Treize said calmly, looking Wufei, and death, in the eye, surprising Wufei with his lack of fear for his life.
"You think this is some kind of game! All you've done is use and manipulate people! And for what? Just to please your bloodlust! You toyed with innocent lives and killed men all for a pointless battle!"
"You're mistaken. There is a reason for everything…" Treize said as he kicked Wufei back and knocked the Chinaman's sword away from him again before drawing a dagger that was cleverly hidden within his boot.
Wufei quickly got back onto his feet as Treize charged at him. Wufei managed to catch and block Treize's downward thrust with his hand on the controlled king and they began to fight for control of the blade. "So why attack the Long home? What reason was there behind attempting to kill me before I ever knew of the Keepers of Mystic? WELL?" Wufei said as he barely managed to dodge slash that was aimed at his neck. He was becoming almost painfully aware of how much taller, and stronger, Treize really was compared to himself.
"What better way to ensure that the one with the greatest possibility to defeat me from ever getting the chance?"
"You coward! So you attack without warning, kill hundreds of innocent lives, all just to try to get rid of someone who was not even there at the time!" Wufei growled, "I bet you don't even know any of the people that you killed!"
"Oh, but I do. I know the exact number, one-million-two-thousand-four-hundred-and seventy-three."
"You sick BASTARD!" Wufei said as he twisted the dagger and plunged it into the larger man before he even realized he had done it.
Treize froze and looked down at where the dagger had impaled him before he said, "That was beautiful…" and fell to the earth, dead before he hit the bloody ground.
"It's over… finally. Meiran, may you rest in peace." he said as he let the dagger drop soundlessly to the ground beside the dead king.
"Thank you Wufei…." came her breathy answer as the breeze drifted past his ears.
"Wufei!" bellowed Shou as he circled not much more then ten feet above his human friend before he lowered his head so that they could speak eye-to-eye with each other.
"Full already?" Wufei jokingly asked.
"I have eaten, but that is not what is important now." the silver dragon replied.
"Oh, is it now?" Wufei said as he picked up Quatre's body and, after placing the young king onto Shou's back, he pulled himself onto his companion's back and rose up into the air.
"Yes…" Shou said as he looked down at Chwun's remains on the battlefield below.
Wufei could only guess as to what had happened as he recalled the female dragon's screams when he spied what his comrade was looking at. "And Wong?" the Chinaman asked, his eyes transfixed to Chwun's corpse.
"…. Safe…" was all Shou said when he saw one of the eagles, he was too far away to tell which one, catch her on its back before turning around and returning from where it came.
*****
"He's got her!" Fiora cried suddenly, making everyone jump, everyone except Heero that is; as he was still too focused on the monster above him to take notice.
"PWA! Duo caught her, Trowa! Did you hear?" Felina cheered as she hugged the weakened human, who winced at the touch but didn't say anything or try to stop her.
"Oh thank goodness!" Jasmine said, "I do not think that I can handle losing another loved one so soon."
"Agreed." Relena said, nodding as she watched Hawkeye slowly lower himself to the ground next to them before letting Wong and Duo get off.
"Hey Wong! You sure had us worried for a minute there. Almost didn't think that Duo was gonna be able to pull it off!" Fiora said as Wong slowly let herself sink to the ground as she knees gave out on her.
"Aw, I knew me and old Hawkeye here could do it all along!" Duo boasted as he puffed out his chest proudly.
"It was my fault, if I had not told her to attack…" Wong said as she looked down at her hands shamefully.
"You couldn't have known that this would have happened, Miss Wong…" Jasmine said, forgetting her troubles for a moment to comfort the emotionally frail woman before her.
"You do not understand… I was unable to save Chwun… just like I was unable to save--"
"What are you sobbing about now, woman, huh?" Wufei cut in as he and Shou landed nearby.
"Chwun left this realm fighting for what she believes in." Shou said sagely.
"…You speak as if she is not dead, why is that?" Wong asked, looking up at them.
"She isn't dead… her body in this realm may not have survived, but she still lives on… In the Crystal Caves." Shou explained.
"I brought Quatre's body back to you." Wufei said, turning his attention to Jasmine.
"I-- I… Thank you Master Wufei…" she stammered.
"PWA! I knew that! We magical beings do not die, we just cease to be able to come into the world of the humans." Felina chirped, replying to Shou.
"That's all fine an dandy for you but what about we HUMANS that--"
"I will defeat you… Dermail." Heero said, effectively cutting Fiora off.
"What the… Hey, Heero, buddy, you okay?" Duo asked as he reached out to touch the Dryad on the shoulder then letting out a yelp of surprise when he was burned on contact.
"Duo! Are you alright?" Jasmine asked as she looked at the palm of his hand, it was already beginning to blister.
"No! What the hell was that?" Duo asked as he pulled his hand away from the healer and began to blow on it in a vain attempt to get it to stop hurting.
"Shit, Duo, what the fuck did you do?" Fiora asked as she took Felina's wineskin, it was full of water, and dumped its contents over the braided man's injured hand.
"Hey! That's mine!" Felina cried as she tried to take it back.
"Yeah, well, we need it right now so tough!" Fiora replied as Jasmine tore off another strip of cloth from her robes and wrapped it gently around Duo's hand.
"Don't worry about it, they will give it back when they are finished with it." Trowa said as he managed to gather his strength together enough to hold the female dryad back.
While everyone was busy tending to Duo, who was starting to understand what a wizard's lab-rat felt like, Relena let out a scream causing everyone to turn and look at what was going on.
"Princess Relena, what is the…" Wong began to say but stopped mid-sentence when she turned around to see and gasped.
Heero, incased in a flame in the shape of a bird was fighting the Great Animal, his arms outstretched as he willed the firebird to peck and snap at the beast, who was now fighting for it's life.
"Oh my mother fucking G--"
"Don't use the lord's name in vain, Fiora!"
"Ask me if I care! Oh unholy SHIT! What the hell is goin' on here?" Fiora yelled as she stared up in shock as the two fought.
"Heero! Please! Don't! You'll get killed!" Relena shouted up at them.
"Don't distract him or he just might." Trowa ordered, silencing her so much that she could only look up in horror as the one she every truly loved more then a friend, or a family member, fought with the beast, to what looked like, to the death.
"Why the hell are we standin' around here for? Ain't there anything we can do to help him?" Fiora asked as she stretched her arms out from her sides as she turned to the others in their team.
"Nothing," Wong said, "There is nothing that we can do to aid him. It seems that, out of all of us, his destiny is the greatest and most horrific of all."
"You mean there is nothing we can do? …He can't stop it all on his own!" Felina cried, worried about her cousin.
While everyone was talking below, Heero, who was now the Phoenix, continued to do battle with the monster.
"Do you really think you can beat me? Ignorant fool! I'll rip you apart, limb. By. Limb!" The beast, Dermail, snarled. The only answer from the firebird was its redoubled efforts to take him down.
Back and forth the sky they flew as the two being war continued to be waged. Heero's conciseness was slowly ebbing away, fading into darkness, as he let the Phoenix take control; he knew he could never stop Dermail if he held back the firebird's true strength and power and so, with a wailing screech, the bird locked the Dryad's body and spirit away within itself and plunged downward at his pray. As he drew nearer, the firebird began to become confused; the winged beast that he was doing battle with wasn't moving! It just hovered there, waiting. Outraged by the beast's ignorance, the Phoenix sped up, then, at that moment, when he was no more then a few feet away from his target, the monster, Dermail, shot off to the left, causing the him to not only miss his pray but to be unable to stop from crashing into the other Keepers of Mystic below!
Relena, who was watching the whole time, was barely able to push her brother, the silver knight that had hardly said anything; for he was still in shock over all of the events that had taken place in such a short time, out of the way of the firebirds flight path while yelling, "LOOK OUT!" before everything went bright, searing, flaming, red. Somewhere in the back of her mind, before everything faded away, she recalled the feel of her orb slipping from her fingertips and followed by the sound of it smashing into little glassy bits on the blood soaked rocks.

"Hi there! So, you are alive… or rather, dead… after all." came a cheery, masculine, voice from the blank whiteness that surrounded her when she "opened" her eyes.
"Wh-what happened?" she asked as she stood up, or at least she thought she was standing up, she couldn't really tell which way WAS up in this place.
"Gee! Let me think, oh yeah, that's right! You scream: look out, and then we DIE!" replied a shrill, sharp voice that could have only been Fiora.
"Do not be rude; she had no way of stopping it. At least she was paying attention, which is more then we did." came Wong's correct, but somehow odd sounding, way of speaking.
"Bite me!"
"Stop fighting you two!" Jasmine scolded them.
"Where is everybody?" Relena asked as she walked around aimlessly.
"We don't really know, I mean, I can see myself, but I can't see the rest of you guys. It's almost like we're all invisible… or ghosts." Duo's gloomy, yet fun-loving, voice replied.
"I think you're right, my friend. That is the best way that I can explain it too."
"Quatre, is that you?" Jasmine asked.
"In the flesh…um…so to speak."
"You gotta be kiddin' me! I can't believe this! This has ta be a dream, more like a nightmare, or something! Yeah, that's it! I'm really back on Daddy's ship, in his bed, suffering from delusions because of a fever or something!" Fiora laughed.
"Somehow I don't think so." came Trowa's calm, yet sarcastic, voice.
"So, now what do we do?" Relena asked the others.
"Now you hear what I have to say." came a new voice from within the void. It was feminine, and had an odd accent, much like Wufei and Wong's, and seemed to speak of ageless wisdom and strength.
"Who's there? Show yourself!" Duo shouted.
"…What a foolish thing to say, you cannot even see each other and yet you want me to be seen by you? How pitiful." the voice replied.
"…Meiran…" Wufei's voice echoed.
"WHAT? Meiran, how?" Wong questioned.
"Oh, JinChi, that is a long story that I have not got the time to explain." the woman, Meiran, replied sadly as the void began to warp and change around them, fading in and out of varying shades of black, white, and gray until they were standing above their bodies, on the now colorless battlefield while the Phoenix continued to fight on with the monster above them.
"Is this what it's like to be… dead?" Jasmine asked as she looked down at herself, her body barely distinguishable from the others; the blackened staff in its hands the only indicator.
"Somewhat, though I would not recommend moving far from your bodies; it would make things more difficult later." Meiran said, as she appeared before them, dressed in red and gold from head to toe, her hair pulled into two small pigtails at the sides of her head.
Wong let out as gasp and ran over to her friend and gave her a hug, letting tears roll freely down her face.
"I missed you too JinChi." Meiran said jokingly as she hugged her servant-friend back.
"Oh… I'm sorry Mistress, I…I… I thought that I would never see you again. My emotions got the better of me, forgive me." Wong said, releasing her hold and bowing humbly before the long-dead woman.
"Yo, I hope you don't mind me asking, but, what the hell is going on here?" Duo asked as he waved his hand over his head, trying to remind the two Chinese women that he and the others were still there.
"Obviously, this Meiran plays a large part to Wufei and Wong's pasts." Trowa answered.
"…On behalf of all the others, I think it's my duty to say: DUH!" Fiora laughed.
"Hey, where's Felina?" Relena asked, looking around.
"The Dryad woman is speaking with her fairy elders, as she cannot join us here. You will see her again once we are finished." Meiran replied.
"I don't get what's goin' on here, but I'll play your game. Whadda want?" Fiora said as she sat down, more like hovered above, on her corpse.
"To give you all a second chance." came Meiran's blunt, straightforward, reply.
"What?" "Say WHAT?" "But how…?" "I thought that once you died there was no going back." were some of the responses she received in return.
"Normally one cannot go back, but, an exception has been made in your cases and I have been given the honor to return you." Meiran explained as she glanced down at what could have only been Felina's body as a bright light flashed around it, leaving said body looking as if it had not been harmed at all by the flames. "It is time." she said, "Who wants to be first?"
"Wait a minute! What's the catch?" Fiora asked as she folded her arms over her chest and gave Meiran an unusual look out of the corner of her honey-brown eyes.
"You are forever bound to the fate of Keepers and will only be reincarnated in times of great need." Meiran said with a sigh. She knew that this was going to good to be true.
"I guess it works for me, as long as we don't die after we're done doin' what we have to do." Duo said with a smile.
"Then it's settled then?" Trowa asked as he looked at the others, who all nodded in agreement.
"Now that that is settled, who first?" Meiran asked.
"WAIT! What about Quatre, he died before us, does that mean he has to stay behind?" Jasmine asked suddenly.
"Jasmine I--"
"No, he does not have to stay behind, he is going too. Now can we PLEASE hurry up? I do not have forever you know!" Meiran snapped cutting Quatre off and tapping her foot on the ground, irritated that this was taking so long.
"Sorry…I'll go first." Jasmine said as she stepped forward.
Meiran nodded her head and, with a wave of her hand, Jasmine began to glow, as did her body and, in a bright flash, her spirit was returned and her body was repaired. One after another they went back, until only Wufei remained.
"After so long I get to see you and be able to hold you again, Meiran, and here I am told that I cannot stay here with you." He said in his smooth, yet quick, Chinese.
"Wufei, you will see me again that is a promise." she replied as she gave him a quick kiss on the lips and held him close as his ghostly form began to glow.
"Meiran… I--"
"…I know, Wufei, I know…" and with that she faded away and he awoke to find himself lying on the ground with the others. He looked to his left as he saw the flames that had once incased Heero died away and watched as the Dryad fell onto his knees, exhausted; apparently, while they were dead, he had slain the beast and was fighting to keep himself awake.
"Heero…" Relena mumbled as she forced herself to sit up on Wufei's left and looked at they dryad.
"What? But… how, I saw everything… I, I crashed, burned all of you alive… how is it that--" Heero stammered as she stood up and walked over to him.
"Shh! Heero, it's alright, we're all alright, we're okay, it's okay… shhh, don't think about it right now." she murmured as she wrapped her arms around his shoulders gently, trying to comfort him. "It's finally all over…"
The End
________________________________________________________________________ Yes! And there we have it everyone! Thank you all for reading! Now, as I promised, I have listed the fan fic ideas below, please take the time to read and vote for them, and REMEMBER! You can vote for as many different fics as you want!
Fan fic ideas:
1. I know this has already been done, but I think the person that was originally writing it stopped, and besides that, I plan to put a few new twists to if then she did, I'm thinking about going a Gundam wing/Escaflowne fic; it would have five parts to the full series, the first part would be totally Escaflowne (mostly about how Hitomi gets back to Gaea and about her and Van's son, Aden Folken de Kenzaki-Fanel, long name, I know, and how he got separated from them) "Aden! Aden, where are you?" "I'm over here mummy!". The second part would be Totally Gundam Wing (this part would be about how Heero discovers the hidden planet, a secret of Odin Lowe, Something that Dr.J left for him and eventually he gets taken to Gaea) "What's this? Cards…? That's what he left in his will for me?". The third would be about Heero wandering around on Gaea trying to figure some things out and ending up meeting Van and Hitomi and the things that happen because of it "Oh good! You're awake! I was starting to worry about you." "Relena?" "Nope! You're a good guesser though; my name is Celena". The fourth part is about Relena and the other G-guys trying to find him and somehow stumbling on the answers, and the way to Gaea themselves "How can you just stand there and not be worried about him? HOW? Heero could be lost laying in some cold damp street somewhere dying for all we know and you are all just standing there like it's no big deal!". The last is the conclusion "Oh my god! HEERO!" she ran over to him and wrapped her arms around his neck in a great bid hug, "I was afraid that I would never see you again! I missed you so much…". {Four votes here}
2. This one is completely original on my part and is an AU unlike any other, that I know of: Heero, a Bounty-hunter, gets lost in a forest while trying to track down the Infamous thief, Duo Maxwell, and finds himself having to camp inside of a cave with a peculiar stream water flowing within it, after testing it and finding it "safe" to drink, Heero has his fill of it, but, unknown to him, quenching his thirst comes at a high price. He wakes up the next morning in the body of a wolf and finds out that he can only be human if there is no sun OR moon out! And now he has either find a cure, learn how to survive as a being of the forests, or else. "Astor! Shepherd! …I hate it when they do this… You rotten dogs! Get back here!" "Well, well, look at what we have here boys… a pretty little lady lost and all alone. What do you say missy? Want old Joey and his friends to show you home?" the man snickered. "No! Let go of me! Somebody! Help, HELP!" {Two votes here}
3. This one is very common, but I'm willing to try my hand at it: Heero loves Duo, but he also loves Relena; and the feelings are mutual from both of them. What is a guy to do? This would be my first attempt at a yoai fic if I decide to do it. "The thing is, should I even try to have something more then just friendship with either of them? I don't want one of them to think that they lost me to the other…so, what do I do?"
4. Locked away in a mental institution isn't what she had envisioned what would have happened to Him, him being Heero Yuy, but now, after Relena as seen him locked in there with her own eyes, can she really say that he doesn't belong there? "Damn it, Relena, listen to me! I'm not-- let go of me-- I'm not crazy I tell you, I'm not!" {Four for this one}
5. Looking down at the Scrap-yard, she couldn't help but feel more then just a touch of jealousy towards the black-haired blue-eyed ex-oz soldier, Hilde, but also knowing that she wasn't what he needed in his life; she kept her heart out of it, and started working on putting both the Deathscythe pilot and the girl together; even if it killed her. This would be my first Duo-and-Hilde fic. "Ugh! How hard could it possibly be for this MORON to pull his head out of his ASS long enough to see that this chick digs him? I can't believe this!" {Two votes here}
6. What if Triton Bloom was alive, and he wasn't Trowa? What would No-name do, and think, if he met Cathy's real brother? Would he feel replaced and out-matched compared to the real thing? A Non-romance fic, this is just about family. "You want me to share a room with him?" "Yes, Trowa, I want you guys to share a room. Don't look at me like that! It won't be so bad!" two days later: "HELP! CATHY! Trowa's lost it! I think he's gonna kill me! HELP!" {Seven votes for this one already}
7. Relena's guards love to work over-time, they never complain, they think they get paid too much for what little they claim to do, they're selfless, gentle, sweet, kind, caring, lovable...Are. You. Nuts? Felina, Jasmine, JinChi, and Fiora are anything BUT that and now that the "great and all mighty non-perfect Heero Yuy" is around, they find themselves fighting to keep the jobs that they hate, all while trying to hook the lovebirds up! "Remind me again how it was that we got sweet-talked into this mess?" "If I do recall, it was you who suggested this outlandish idea, Fiora Eleri." "…Thanks for reminding me, why oh why did I want to do this?" "Because you're a hopeless romantic at heart?" "It's either that or she's crazy…" they all looked at each other for a moment before saying, "Crazy." {Nine votes for this one}
8. "I never want to see your face again, Heero Yuy! Do you hear me? NEVER AGAIN!" Relena really should be more careful about what she wishes for, for now she's blind and Heero is still around. "She doesn't get it, She's drowning in her own--" "Heero, I'm blind not deaf! So please don't talk like I'm not in the room." {Nine votes for this}
9. Milliardo hated action figures; they reminded him too much of his little sister's dolls, so, why he got the twelve-inch-tall Zero-One Gundam Pilot: Heero Yuy, "G.I. Joe-like" action-figure for his tenth birthday, he never knew. His sister, who had to stay at home because of the chickenpox, was enthralled when he offered to let her play with "it" whenever she wanted to. But, something is very strange happens when, suddenly, nine years latter, he comes to life! "Relena! We're home darling!" "Relena… are you feeling better?" "Not really, was your party fun?" "It was okay, here, you can play with this when you're lonely while I'm away at school, okay?" "Really? Your brand new toy? Thank you Milliardo!" {Three votes for this one}
10. What if: Western (the sequel to What if: Myth) what happens when a "city slicker" schemes to buy out a whole town that stands on the world's biggest oil-well in history? The Keeper's of Mystic return to the lands of the living again, of course! But, how are they going to be able to reunite when they can't even remember whom they were? And, most importantly, who is who in the times of sharpshooters, outlaws, and "red-skins"? "I don't know who you are and, quite frankly, I just don't care. But, if you think that you're gonna get away without buying a ticket to ride this here train, you got another thing comin'!" {two votes here}
11. It's been done a million times before, but never in a way like this: Gundam Wing Outtakes, these outtakes, unlike most others out there, are geared more toward the funny-serious style that I am known for. "BRIAN! Stop making goggle eyes!" in this 'series' I will be using the names of the American voice actors and be telling of their exploits all through the series as if they really were the Gundam Pilots and all of the other characters. "Piffff! Hahahaha! I'm sorry Cole, I couldn't help it!" My first attempt at pure humor. {Four Votes for this}
12. What if Relena never met Heero on that beach? What if she never found out that he was a Gundam Pilot? I'll be going back through the series and rewriting it to find out. What will the outcome be? Was meeting Heero Yuy a major part of her becoming the woman she is today? I hope to try and find out. "What kind of person is he?" {Two votes here}
13. The Shreens are beings from a distant plant outside of the earth's solar system who are a race of all women who survive by attacking other inhabited planets and stealing all of their men for the use of breeding and for slaves. And now, with Heero presumed dead, it's up to Relena to stop them before it's too late. "Don't you like my pet, Queen Relena? He has the most beautiful eyes, why don't you come closer my pet so that she can see you better hum…?" Shiva said as the large figure that sat by her chair moved into the light. Relena gasped, "Heero!". My first attempt at writing lemons but since FanFiction.net doesn't allow those anymore, I'll post the lemon parts to this fic (which aren't all THAT important to the plot) on my website (which is listed in my FF.net profile). {Three votes for this one}
14. "In other news today: Relena Darlian was shot today at the peace-talks on L4, she was dead on the scene. Relena left behind her brother and sister-in-law and their two-year-old son, Zachary. Relena, if you can hear us up there, we will miss you…. And now for--" Heero turned off the TV and looked over at the cat that lay curled up on the sofa next to him; it was nursing it's single, lonely, kitten. "They didn't mention you, Indigo." the black cat ignored him, but her yellow and orange-striped kitten stopped her suckling to look up at him and mew before going back to her mother's teat. 'Something is very strange about that kitten…' Heero thought. Too bad that he didn't know how right he really was… 'Well that explains a lot.' the kitten thought as she continued to nurse, 'I died that day and then… I was, I was reborn then as, as Indigo's kitten… Poor Heero, I wish I could tell him…' {Four votes here}

Let me know! Please feel free to vote for as many fics as you like! The deadline is when I finish What if:Myth!
It has also come to my attention that I broke one of FanFiction.net's rules, that one being the rule where the fic actually has to BE a fic, and for that I am sorry; I didn't realize this until AFTER I had posted this list alone. I only wanted to enrich my writing experience, and to make things just a little bit more fun, as well as bring some "new" ideas into the Gundam Wing fandom world. It is my greatest hope that the good people who run FF.net can forgive me for not paying as close attention to the rules as I should have and I assure them that I will be more mindful in the future.
As for the people who reviewed and voted, I thank you dearly. You don't know what a great help you've been.
I love everyone!
