The Gundam Wing Prom
"Oh hey! Look at that!"
"What is it? Hm?"
"Oh, it's the Senior class prom! Its coming up at the end of this month!"
"Yeah? I hope I get asked!"
"Ha! Tran is taking me, and I already got a dress picked out!"
"Oh, you're so lucky!"
Heero groaned inwardly as he passed all of the giddy Teenage girls in the hall way. Despite the fact that he absolutely loved listening to their gossip (yeah right), he was really starting to get sick of hearing about this stupid prom! It was one thing that they talked about it all through the halls, but to interrupt his train of thoughts by screeching really loudly in the halls about it was enough. Heero reached into his back pack and was about to pull out his trusty gun, when he felt a hand smack against his back.
"Heero Buddy! You should know better than that!" the voice scolded.
"Oh get off it Duo, it's not even loaded," Heero replied, reluctantly letting go of the gun and continuing to walk down the hall.
"Un, demo," Duo sped up to catch up with Heero and then proceed to walk next to him, "You know guns are prohibited in schools!"
"Baka, I knew that," Heero growled.
"Oorai, demo, you were just about to pull out your gun, despite the fact that they are not allowed," Duo said knowingly.
Heero turned around and glared at Duo, "Hiekou..."
Duo took this as a hint and dropped the subject. They continued to walk down the halls to their next class, which was computer programing. Now, both Heero and Duo were experts at computer programming and just about everything else that had to do with computers, however, they needed the highschool credit to graduate. After the war ended and the Marimaya incident was resolved, the Gundam Pilots continued on with their lives as normal people. In the beginning everything went fine. Quatre went back to his L4 colony and assumed the position as the Winner Family Heir with Dorothy, feeling bad about what she had done, as his main receptionist, Trowa returned to his sister Catherine and worked in the circus, Wufei worked with Sally as a preventer, Duo and Hilde ran a salvaging business on L2, and Heero discreetly watched Relena from a far and protected her. However, after a period of time, a new law was revived that stated that all people under the age of eighteen must attend school.
Being only sixteen, Heero, Duo, Quatre, Trowa, Wufei, Relena, Catherine, Dorothy and Hilde were forced to drop their occupations temporarily, and attend school. Relena moved away from the Sanq kingdom because of all of the threats on her life, and moved to Silverdale, Washington and bought and apartment. Heero, being her undercover bodyguard, followed Relena and purchased an apartment a few doors down from her. Quatre's business relocated into Kitsap Washington and Quatre and Dorothy followed suit. Trowa and Catherine's circus was beginning to see failure in their current location, so they moved into Seattle Washington in search of success. Sally and Wufei were transferred to Bangor Base in Silverdale Washington for their new assignments. By some incredibly weird twist of fate (yeah right, can we say "plot convenience"?) All of them ended up going to Central Kitsap High School. Thus, Heero and Duo rounded the corner, walked past all of the gabbing girls, and entered the CIA lab for their computer class.
Heero looked around the class and located his working cubical. The classroom's computers were split up into individual cubicals comprising of a table with five computers lined up together. Heero's station was the closest to the window and he was sitting next to whom else, but the five other pilots. Ironically(here we go with my plot convenience) their stations were numbered 1-5 with Heero first on the right by the window followed by Duo, Trowa, Quatre, and Wufei on the end.
Heero walked over to his table and took his seat with Duo not far behind. Heero flipped his computer switch and waited for his computer to turn on. After waiting for about ten seconds with no response from his computer, Heero got up from his seat and walked behind the computer.
Duo, wondering what Heero was doing, stopped his flirting with a blonde girl with a pont-tail and said, "Heero, what the hell are you doing?"
"This damned computer is not responding," Heero said from behind the table.
"I highly doubt that it is unresponsive Heero, you probably just didn't give it time to boot up," Quatre said, while walking over to his seat.
"I gave it ten seconds to boot up and it was unresponsive, that's enough to tell me that this computer is a piece of crap, and I refuse to work on it," Heero said, while finishing disconnecting the cords.
"So what are you going to do about your school work, Yuy?" Wufei asked, while watching Heero with interest.
"I am going to wire my laptop to the schools network, and I am going to work off of that," Heero said, whipping his laptop out of his bag and proceeding to wire it to the schools data base.
While Heero was doing this, Trowa noticed a teacher walking up behind Heero and Trowa informed Heero of this fact.
"What, may I ask, are you doing, Mr. Yuy?" The old man, who was apparently the teacher, asked.
"I am wiring my computer to the schools networks so that I can work on my assignments," Heero replied in a monotone voice and not even bothering to look up from his work.
The teacher scowled, and asked, "And just what is wrong with the computer that the school has supplied you with?"
"This computer isn't even close to the high speed and efficiency of my laptop, so therefore, I refuse to work on it," Heero, finished wiring his computer so it would run simultaneously with the schools and started working on his work, again, not bothering to look at the inferior teacher behind him.
The teacher gave up on the subject and left the Gundam pilots alone to their work.
"Jeez Heero, you sure know how to make trouble, don't you?" Duo stated.
"..." was the only response from Heero, as he typed vigorously on his computer assignment, which just so happened to be creating the schematics and computer system for a Mobil suit.
"Why do you suppose the teacher put all of us gundam pilots together at this table?" Quatre asked, while also starting on his assignment, which was to create a bank account to hold all of his finances and pay all of his bills automatically.
"It must be because that weakling of a teacher knew that we are far superior to all of these other weak students," Wufei replied, whose assignment was to set up a web page for the Preventers facility.
"Ano, I don't think so Wu-man," Duo said, as he worked merrily on his game creating assignment, "What do you think Trowa?"
"I think it is because all of the other students are intimidated and or scared of us," Trowa said calmly, while working on his assignment, which was creating an inventory for missplaced school files.
"Yeah, you could be ri... whoa!" Duo trailed off, when something outside the window caught his eye.
"What's the matter Duo?" Quatre asked, looking up from his computer screen and directing his attention too outside.
There, in the soccer field, were a whole bunch of girls in their gym clothes playing soccer. Now this wouldn't have been such a big deal had this been any normal gym class, but the fact of the matter was that this class comprised of all girls with Sally as their teacher.
"Hey Wufei, I didn't know Sally taught gym class," said Quatre, while looking out the window and trying to pry Duo away from it.
"Bah, that weak onna needed something do get us extra money, since the Preventers don't pay us much," Wufei said, also turning his attention to outside.
"Oh my god, I don't believe it!" Duo exclaimed with shock, "look, Hilde is in that class," Duo said pointing.
"Oh your right, and hey, Dorothy is in it too!" Quatre said, equally as excited and shocked as Duo.
"Yes, it would appear that my sister Catherine is also in that class," Trowa said, surprising Duo and Quatre because they didn't know he was there.
"Hey Heero! You wont believe this but..."
"Relena is in that gym class too," Heero cut Duo off in mid sentence and stood up.
"Yeah, your right," Quatre said, looking at Heero, "Hey, how did you know?"
"I know Relena's whole schedule so I can keep an eye on her," Heero stated, taking a spot next to Duo by the window.
"Does that onna even know you are in the same state as her, let alone the same school?" Wufei asked, also leaving his seat to look outside.
"Of coarse she does! Weren't you there when they had their fated reunion, which was fatefully set up by Hilde and I?" Duo asked, cooly.
"You're the one that set that up! You bastard, you blew my cover!" Heero lunged at Duo attempting to choke him, but ending up unsuccessful because of Trowa and Wufei and Quatre's famous words, "We shouldn't be fighting at all!"
After Heero had settled down and resumed work on his assignment, Duo commenced in telling his story.
"So Hilde and I had know for quite some time that Heero had been trailing Relena, and after finding that Heero had an apartment a few doors down from Relena's and that he was attending the exact same school as her and the rest of us... which is really weird that we all some how ended up together at the same school! It reminds of the time we were all assigned to the same mission after Romafeller..."
"Duo!" Wufei cut Duo off in an annoyed voice, "We don't need you to take us for a trip down memory lane!"
"Yes Duo, please continue with your story about Heero and Relena's "fated" reunion," Quatre said the word "fated" cautiously, and urged Duo to continue with his story.
"Okay, okay! Can't a guy reminisce on good times?" Duo asked, defensively.
"Not when you are in the middle of relaying important information," Trowa said calmly.
"Fine, fine! So, as I was saying, Hilde and I had decided that it was time for Relena and Heero meet up again..."
*~*Flashback*~*
"Hilde, I can't believe that you will be attending the same school as me and that you live so close to my apartment!" Relena exclaimed excitedly, as Hilde and she walked together through a park.
"Yeah, and you'll never guess who else lives really close to you," Hilde mumbled under her breath with a small smirk.
"Did you say something?" Relena looked over at Hilde questioningly.
"Oh nothing!" Hilde said quickly, "Hey, look over there!"
Relena followed Hilde's finger and saw that she was gesturing towards a tree on a hill that over looked a lake.
"Oh wow! That's so pretty! Lets go take a break over there!" Relena said, beginning to run towards the tree.
Heero sat silently in a tree overlooking a lake with a book in hand. He sat leaned up against the tree with one of his legs draped over the tree branch and one stretched out straight as he skimmed the pages of his outside reading book for English class. In truth, school hadn't even started yet and thus the outside reading wasn't even assigned. However, being the great computer hacker that he is, he was able to tap into his English teacher's lesson plan, so he knew what to expect for assignments for the first week. So instead of hanging out with friends and having fun like the rest of the teenage population, Heero was reading North and South by John Jakes. Heero enjoyed reading about wars that took place before his time and how primitive they were compared to the war of A.C. 195, but the love story factor was taking away from his enjoyment, but other then that, Heero was absorbed completely in his book and thus, didn't notice Relena and Hilde making their way over to the tree he was in.
"Oh, this is perfect! It's so calm and peaceful here!" Heero heard a female voice say.
'Yeah, why do you think I came here to read?' Heero groaned inwardly to him self, but then realized who the voice belonged to.
Heero put his book down and meticulously looked down underneath him. There, sitting happy as a clam, was Relena talking to Hilde, Duo's partner. Heero almost fell off the branch he was on when he saw her under him. He quickly assessed the situation and tried to think of a way to get out of the tree and away from Relena without her noticing, but he concluded that there was none. Heero sighed, frustrated, and watched Relena and Hilde talk below. After about twenty minutes of listening to the two teenage girls talk about shopping for clothes and other girly stuff like that, Heero became hopeful when something Hilde said suggested that they might be leaving soon.
"Hey Relena, are you hungry, because I know I am!" Hilde said, as she unconsciously rubbed her growling stomach.
"Yes, I am a little hungry," Relena confessed, "I think I saw and ice cream stand over in that direction, why don't we go get a cone?"
"Oh Yeah, that sounds like a royal plan! You wait here and save our spots while I get the ice cream!"Hilde said, jumping up from her spot and running in the direction of the ice cream stand.
"Okay, I'll just wait for you to come back!" Relena yelled after Hilde, and then resumed her sitting position under the tree.
Heero thought he was going to lose it when Relena said that she would wait until Hilde got back with the ice cream. Now he was going to be stuck in the tree waiting for Hilde to come back, and then while they ate their ice cream and then god knows how long after that. Heero groaned to himself and continued to watch Relena below him as if willing her to leave. Suddenly, a branch above Heero began to shake, and a giant pine cone fell and landed on Relena's head.
"Ouch!" Relena exclaimed rubbing her head, "What the...?" Relena looked up into the tree to find a very nervous looking young-man looking down at her.
"Ahhhh! You Hentai!!!!!" Relena yelled and grabbed the closest thing she could find, a rock, and threw it up at the "Young Man".
The rock met with Heero face and hit him right in the nose. Heero instinctively brought his arms up to cover his face from further blows and then proceeded to lose his balance. Heero hit the ground with such impact that when he went to stand up he lost his balance again and started to roll down the hill and ended up splashing into the lake.
Relena ran down the hill to see who the man that was peeping at her was, and to see if he was all right. When she reached the bottom of the hill, she saw the young man sitting with his back to her in the lake. He was drenched from head to toe and he had, what looked like a lizard, on his head. Relena brought her hand up to her mouth to stifle a laugh and then asked, "Are you all right?"
The young man shook his head to get some water out of his ears and to get the lizard off his head, then turned around. Relena gasped when she realized whom the young man was. Dark unruly brown hair and deep blue eyes could only be one-person.
"H-Heero?" Relena managed to choke out.
Heero was really in a bind now. He was soaking wet and was suffering from what he thought was a broken nose, but what's worse, his cover was completely blown. (His priorities are really screwed up, ne?) Heero stood up and attempted to make a run for it, but Relena voice stopped him.
"Matte, Heero!" Relena yelled, running after him, "Are you all right!?"
"..."
"You startled me, I didn't expect you to be up in that tree, or in the same state, for that matter! What are you doing here?" Relena asked the former perfect soldier next to her.
"I am attending school here..." Heero said in his monotone voice.
"Wow! What a coincidence, so am I!" Relena said, stopping.
Heero looked behind him, wondering why Relena had stopped chattering, "Relena?"
"Oh Heero, it's been so long since I 've seen you last, and now here you are, going to the same school as me! I'm so happy, demo..." Relena trailed off.
"What's the matter?" Heero asked, with a tinge of curiosity in his voice.
"Did I break your nose when I threw that rock at you?" Relena asked, looking up at Heero with tear filled eyes.
Heero was slightly taken aback by this, but none the less, he remained calm.
"It's nothing that can't be easily fixed,"Heero said.
Without thinking twice, Heero brought his index finger up to the side of his nose and pushed with such force, that the bone in his nose snapped back into place with a sickening crack! (If you have ever seen Rurouni Kenshin when he fights Jineh and Jineh fixes his nose, it was just like that! Sick!)
"Oh my God Heero! I can't believe you just did that!" Relena screeched turning around, "didn't that hurt?"
Heero looked at Relena like she was crazy, "What do you mean, of coarse it didn't!"
Relena turned and looked at Heero and then gasped, "Oh my God! Heero, you're bleeding!"
"Nani?" Heero brought his hand up to his nose and then withdrew it, noticing blood on his hand, "it's just a scratch Relena, it's fi..."
Before Heero could finish his sentence, Relena waltzed right up to him and put a band aid horizontally on his nose. (Remember how cute Duo looked with the band-aid on his nose?)
"There you go! All better!" Relena said, taking a step away from Heero and them smiling at her hand work.
Heero was about to protest about the band-aid, when Relena said, "Well, I have to get back and see if Hilde's got the ice cream. See you later Heero!" and with that, Relena turned and left, leaving a confused looking Heero, with a band-aid on his nose, standing in the middle of the sidewalk.
*~End Flashback~*
"... and so, that is how Relena and Heero met up again!" Duo said, finishing off his story.
"That's so funny!" Quatre said laughing, but then saw Heero glaring at him, "in an evil prank sort of way," Quatre quickly ended, and returned to work.
"Oh don't be so touchy Heero!" Duo said, slapping him on the back for the second time that day, "I thought it was a pretty good reunion!"
"You blew my cover..." Heero said dangerously.
"Yeah, but so what? It was bound to happen sometime, what with you only a few doors down from Relena and going to the same school! I was just helping things to move along faster!" Duo chided.
"At least that onna doesn't know where you live Yuy," Wufei said, feeling slightly bad for Heero.
"That's what you think..." Heero mumbled.
"What, you mean she does?" Duo exclaimed, surprised.
"Later that night, she saw me walking back from the grocery store and saw me walk into my room..." Heero said, continuing his assignment.
"What will you do now?" Trowa asked.
"Nothing, but continue my self- appointed mission to protect her," Heero said simply.
"Whatever you say Heero, Whatever you say..." Duo smirked and returned to making his frogger game, with some Gundam twists!
A/N: Hey Hey! That was pretty lame huh? Putting them all together in the same state and school, but let me tell you, I sure had fun writing it! It's not over yet though! The next chapter is going to be about the girls and their new friends! Well, stay tuned if it interests you! Oh yeah! And before I forget, so you don't sue me!
Disclaimer: I don't own Gundam Wing or any of the characters. I don't own rights to the book North and South, that belongs to Mr. John Jakes. And, although I doubt any of you will care, I don't own Silverdale, Kitsap, Bangor base, or Seattle. I also claim no ownership to the school Central Kitsap High School, (which is where I will be going next year! ^_^) Sayonara guys!
Oh yeah! R&R please! I like getting Good reviews!
"Oh hey! Look at that!"
"What is it? Hm?"
"Oh, it's the Senior class prom! Its coming up at the end of this month!"
"Yeah? I hope I get asked!"
"Ha! Tran is taking me, and I already got a dress picked out!"

The rock met with Heero face and hit him right in the nose. Heero instinctively brought his arms up to cover his face from further blows and then proceeded to lose his balance. Heero hit the ground with such impact that when he went to stand up he lost his balance again and started to roll down the hill and ended up splashing into the lake.
Relena ran down the hill to see who the man that was peeping at her was, and to see if he was all right. When she reached the bottom of the hill, she saw the young man sitting with his back to her in the lake. He was drenched from head to toe and he had, what looked like a lizard, on his head. Relena brought her hand up to her mouth to stifle a laugh and then asked, "Are you all right?"
The young man shook his head to get some water out of his ears and to get the lizard off his head, then turned around. Relena gasped when she realized whom the young man was. Dark unruly brown hair and deep blue eyes could only be one-person.
"H-Heero?" Relena managed to choke out.
Heero was really in a bind now. He was soaking wet and was suffering from what he thought was a broken nose, but what's worse, his cover was completely blown. (His priorities are really screwed up, ne?) Heero stood up and attempted to make a run for it, but Relena voice stopped him.
"Matte, Heero!" Relena yelled, running after him, "Are you all right!?"
"..."
"You startled me, I didn't expect you to be up in that tree, or in the same state, for that matter! What are you doing here?" Relena asked the former perfect soldier next to her.
"I am attending school here..." Heero said in his monotone voice.
"Wow! What a coincidence, so am I!" Relena said, stopping.
Heero looked behind him, wondering why Relena had stopped chattering, "Relena?"
"Oh Heero, it's been so long since I 've seen you last, and now here you are, going to the same school as me! I'm so happy, demo..." Relena trailed off.
"What's the matter?" Heero asked, with a tinge of curiosity in his voice.
"Did I break your nose when I threw that rock at you?" Relena asked, looking up at Heero with tear filled eyes.
Heero was slightly taken aback by this, but none the less, he remained calm.
"It's nothing that can't be easily fixed,"Heero said.
Without thinking twice, Heero brought his index finger up to the side of his nose and pushed with such force, that the bone in his nose snapped back into place with a sickening crack! (If you have ever seen Rurouni Kenshin when he fights Jineh and Jineh fixes his nose, it was just like that! Sick!)
"Oh my God Heero! I can't believe you just did that!" Relena screeched turning around, "didn't that hurt?"
Heero looked at Relena like she was crazy, "What do you mean, of coarse it didn't!"
Relena turned and looked at Heero and then gasped, "Oh my God! Heero, you're bleeding!"
"Nani?" Heero brought his hand up to his nose and then withdrew it, noticing blood on his hand, "it's just a scratch Relena, it's fi..."
Before Heero could finish his sentence, Relena waltzed right up to him and put a band aid horizontally on his nose. (Remember how cute Duo looked with the band-aid on his nose?)
"There you go! All better!" Relena said, taking a step away from Heero and them smiling at her hand work.
Heero was about to protest about the band-aid, when Relena said, "Well, I have to get back and see if Hilde's got the ice cream. See you later Heero!" and with that, Relena turned and left, leaving a confused looking Heero, with a band-aid on his nose, standing in the middle of the sidewalk.
*~End Flashback~*
"... and so, that is how Relena and Heero met up again!" Duo said, finishing off his story.
"That's so funny!" Quatre said laughing, but then saw Heero glaring at him, "in an evil prank sort of way," Quatre quickly ended, and returned to work.
"Oh don't be so touchy Heero!" Duo said, slapping him on the back for the second time that day, "I thought it was a pretty good reunion!"
"You blew my cover..." Heero said dangerously.
"Yeah, but so what? It was bound to happen sometime, what with you only a few doors down from Relena and going to the same school! I was just helping things to move along faster!" Duo chided.
"At least that onna doesn't know where you live Yuy," Wufei said, feeling slightly bad for Heero.
"That's what you think..." Heero mumbled.
"What, you mean she does?" Duo exclaimed, surprised.
"Later that night, she saw me walking back from the grocery store and saw me walk into my room..." Heero said, continuing his assignment.
"What will you do now?" Trowa asked.
"Nothing, but continue my self- appointed mission to protect her," Heero said simply.
"Whatever you say Heero, Whatever you say..." Duo smirked and returned to making his frogger game, with some Gundam twists!
