Shop Class:
Another lull in the missions; what were those stupid scientists thinking? There's a war going on and the 5 best people to fight it didn't have any bloody missions! Duo huffed as he set to work installing the radio in the shop class assignment he and Heero were working on. The car was a hunk of junk when they found it, rusted to the gills and looking like it'd never start. The shop teacher thought them insane when they brought the thing in! But to look at it now, you'd never believe the before photo's tacked up on the shop bulletin board was of the same car. The thing now was..Well..Intresting. A 2003 corvette convertible sanded down and nearly completely rebuilt. The body was now smooth as silk, unpainted steel and gundanium. Though that was Heero's doing. Duo just substituted the backseat for a subwoofer the width of the car and the biggest, best bloody speakers he could get his grubby little hands on. Heero looked over to Duo as he installed the cd player into the computers dash board before leaning back down under the hood to finish some wiring. They'd built the engine from scratch, bits and pieces they could pick up and whatnot. The rest of the class was amazed, and actually accused them of stealing a car from somewhere, but no, why would they do that? "Hey Heero, I'll be right back, I'm STARVING gotta grab something from the caff, back in a bit!" Duo called as bounded out of the room. Heero replied with his usual grunt and kept working.
A few days later
Duo sat in the drivers seat, grinning like an idiot; they'd fixed everything that needed fixing and tuned the car to perfection. Heero stood in the shop entrance, eyebrow quirked as he waited for Duo's usual tirade of button pushing and engine roaring before he took his new toy for a decidedly dangerous 'stroll' around the parking lot.
Duo's eyes lit up as he turned on the stereo as loud as he could stand it and revved the engine as he howled with delight. Then he saw something he didn't remember putting in there. A red button set in the dashboard near the stereo system.
Of course, the car was built by him and Heero, and no one else was allowed to touch it, so the little red button must have been something Heero put in, all good, he decided to find out what it would do.
Pushing the button, his eyes widened. The stereo turned off quickly, and a light showed up on the system controls, flashing.

Meanwhile, over the speakers, came the tell tale, "Beep. Beep. Beep" of a countdown timer from a..self.destruct..Button..!!
"AHH!!!!" he leapt out of the car as fast as he could, sending students scattering out of the shop class as he bolted past Heero, "You are an asshole Yuy!!"
Heero just stands there as everyone runs out of the room, looking rather amused. Once everyone is gone, and Duo is going insane somewhere downtown, ranting to Trowa and Quatre in a café about Heero putting a bomb in HIS new car, Heero goes to the car and climbs in.
A small smirk forms on his lips as he presses the red button again, the music comes back on, the beeping stops and the engine purrs its love.
"Baka, Like I'd put a bomb in MY car." Pulls out of the school to pick up Wufei and head to the nearest park to spar.
