Thank yous:
Relwarc... As for how Quatre dies... don't worry, it's not painful. Food poisoning IS painful. I've known survivors of it. WuFei? Yoda? C'mon, I think he's cute, now I'm gonna have nightmares! I already have enough of those about being various bishonen... and I'm not a guy! (Last one I was Heero... for some odd reason, I was going to shoot Duo... for being annoying. Funny thing about that is that, personality-wise, I'm more like Duo.) The time before that, I was Subaru from Tokyo Babylon. Who was it who said that dreams are visions from a past life?
Disclaimer: I may have been part of it in a past life, but I don't own it.
Warnings: Attempted humor, OOC... all that kind of stuff... minor bad language... yadda yadda...

(Lavender's POV)
Koenma-sama's yelling again. "What do you mean, we don't have the funds?"
If he had asked me, I would have told him that it was definitely because he let Botan use his credit card.
Tatsumi, the treasurer, sighed. "It was all traced back to your card, Koenma-sama. I heard that you had let someone use it?"
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
(WuFei POV)
This is getting a little old. Only a few days ago, Trowa got shot. This morning, I found Quatre, at his desk, apparently drinking tea. I'm gonna kill the butler. The Maguanaucs are all dead now too... It seems that they all thought that it was their fault.
On a lighter note... or perhaps not... Dorothy Catalonia is being put to death (by lethal injection) at noon, for the assassination of Vice-Foreign Minister Relena Dorlian. I'm not sure what to think of that.
I took me a while, though, to realize that I wasn't the last pilot alive. "Preventer Wind", Zechs, is still alive.
And on an odd note... I got a letter from Duo. Talk about weird...
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
(Duo POV)
Strange things... Quatre punched me. When I got him, he started yelling about Trowa, and he punched me. I think I have a black eye.
I've been having a very busy day today. In fact, I've been so busy that I actually managed to con Heero into helping me gather up all of the Maguanaucs... That took a while. And they all ended up in line, right behind Quatre, to whom they cried and asked forgiveness. Heero was rather disgusted with the display.
So I asked him to help me pick up Miss Catalonia. If anything is scarier than the thought of spending a day cooped up with Relena, dragging Dorothy Catalonia to the Makkai is it.
But the look on Heero's face, when she bit him, was priceless. She's awesome, in a way...
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
(Quatre POV)
How humiliating. They all thought that they were at fault? I was the one who wasn't paying any attention when I started drinking the tea left on my desk for me this morning.
"Quatre Raberba Winner?"
"Yes?"
"Rashid? Abdul?" The lavender-haired woman at the desk started listing all of the Maguanaucs. They each answered as their names were spoken. And then, "Dorothy Catalonia?"
My blood went cold. There was silence.
"Dorothy Catalonia?" she asked, louder. Finally she stood, "Is there a Dorothy Catalonia in this line?" she yelled.
A loud unmistakable voice answered her, "Gomen, ma'am! We're a little late."
"No kidding your late, baka! Where is Dorothy Catalonia?"
"Uhm..." the even-more-than-usual disheveled Duo said eloquently. "Heero's at the back of the line strangling her."
I blinked, "He's what?"
"She bit him."
I couldn't help it. Honestly, I couldn't. A peal of laughter escaped my lips.
"Quatre?" asked the newly released blonde wonder.
Uh-oh. Unfortunately, I was unable to get out of the way before she -glomped- me. "Let me guess," I asked, "Lethal injections?"
"Yeah." Is that...? My face reddened. Dorothy had me pinned to the floor and was... attempting to grope me.
"Duo! Heero! Trowa, if you can hear me! Somebody get her off of me!!!"
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
(Trowa POV)
"Duo! Heero! Trowa, if you can hear me! Somebody get her off of me!!!"
A loud voice /Quatre?/ interrupted my patient dealing with Tranquility. I was sick of the sleeze's lecherous stare, so I decided to see what was going on. Not so surprisingly, I was interrupted. By my "teacher".
"What are you doing?"
"I am curious as to what is going on out there. The yell sounded familiar."
"How familiar?"
"Like one of my friends." I calmly pushed the old lech out of my way as I stepped out the door.
I was right. It was Quatre. And Dorothy. And all of the Maguanaucs, trying to peel her off of him.
I politely asked that they move aside, as I walked to Quatre's side. I deftly grabbed Dorothy by the back of the neck, and she became utterly limp. "Hello, Quatre."
He looked up at me and fainted.
*
Oooo yay. I got to go to another meeting. Relena isn't here this time though. Quatre sat next to me, sending nervous glances at Dorothy, who was seated across the room from us. The Maguanaucs all stood behind us, formally.
Koenma-sama coughed. "Let's see... Miss Dorothy Catalonia? How would you like to be apprenticed to... Mischeif?"
"What?"
"You know, Robin Goodfellow?"
"Sounds nice," she said absently, staring at Quatre. I glared at her. Not that anyone could tell, considering that it was almost the same as my usual expression, but it's the thought that counts, right?
"Hmm... Quatre. I honestly can't think of anything..." he shuffled through the papers on his desk and froze... The pacifier fell from his mouth as his eyes nearly bugged out. Once he had collected himself, he grinned evilly. There was absolutely no other way to describe the look(1).
Quatre shifted in his seat nervously. "What?"
"What's your position on Love?" He wouldn't... would he?
"Uhmm... What do you mean?"
"You will be apprenticed to Love. According to your records, this would be very well suited for you." Apparently, he would.
The Maguanaucs stood proud. Abdul whipped out a handkerchief and wiped at his eyes, "I'm so proud!"
"And you guys..."
Rashid spoke for the others, "We will not leave Master Quatre."
Koenma-sama sweatdropped. "Of course not... This is a very active job, once he takes it over. Quatre will need a lot of help."
**** (1)This is for those of you who watch Yu-Gi-Oh!. In the "battle" between Yuugi and Joey and the ParaDox Twins, Joey gets -this- look on his face when he pulls out a "duplicate magic" kind of card.
Can't think of anything to say here...
Next time: Guest appearance by Watari (He's from the same anime as Tatsumi, who, along with Watari, will appear randomly.). Duo finds a way to lighten his job load. Botan finds a few suspicious things. WuFei gets a visit. And a few years pass.
