Hey all, well welcome to the seventh installment of Back To B4! Soz bout
Raye's short hand! But I s'pose I just did it to so I can't really
complain. Hope you like this new chapter. Soz that we haven't written for
awhile but homework does take priority, unfortunately (pulls disgusted
face and sighs and curses) Such a pity!
Duo peered out from under the bed and heaved a sigh of relief. "That was a close one, don't you girls think?"
Lita just shook her head as an answer, whilst Raye bent down and picked up Duo's copy of Goldy Locks and the three Bears. "Here, I think you better take this and get out of here before that sexist pig decides to make an appearance as well." She said offering the storybook to Duo.
"But. . . aren't you going to read to me?"
"No, I don't think that's such a wise idea for tonight. Besides if you stay here much longer someone's going to notice your absents and come looking for you. And you wouldn't want us to get in trouble would you?" Lita questioned as she lay on the guilt trip.
"Well, I suppose not, but will you read it to me tomorrow then?"
"Ahh, sure, why not, now just go!" Raye exclaimed a little pissed.
"Umm, I can't Heero locked the door, and I left my keys in the lock of the door, and if memory serves me Heero never leaves keys any where so he would have grabbed them and put them back where they belong, and I can't pick the lock from the inside, Heero and Wufei didn't put you in this room for no reason. It's where they keep and interrogate prisoners."
"Great, just great, we're stuck with a stupid braided baka for a whole night! As if having to put up with the sexist pig bring us meals wasn't enough! Now we have to put up with the immature chatter of a 20 year old you acts as if he should be in the care of elders!" Raye exclaimed as she threw her hands up in the air.
"Raye! That's not a nice thing to say, after all its not his fault that his elders didn't teach him how to act properly or how to greet a lady. For that matter if you're going to say that Duo here is immature, then you may as well call their whole group immature after all none of them know proper etiquette. Why the only one who comes close is that guy Quatre."
"Hmm, yes but still, you think they'd at least know how to treat a lady, wouldn't you?"
"Umm, girls???" Duo questioned as he tapped each of them on the shoulder.
"What?" Raye retorted.
Lita gave Raye a glare before looking back at Duo. "What is it you wish to tell us?"
"I think I found a way for me to get out of here. You see that window over there?" Duo asked as he pointed to a window in-between the girls beds. "If we tie some of the sheets together and made a sort of makeshift rope I could shimmy down the outside wall and swing into my room." 'And Wufei thinks I'm dumb! Yeah right if I was dumb they'd still be arguing whilst I was cowering under the bed!'
Lita looked at Raye who just shrugged her shoulders before going over to the bed and pulling off the second sheet. Tying the sheets together with intervals of knots she secured the sheet by tying an anchor to the leg of a bed. Passing the other end to Duo she opened the window. "You get caught and it's not our fault, that guy Wufei's right, you really are a braided baka!"
Duo just gave Raye a weird look before giving a funny little bow and going out the window. 'Braided baka? If Wufei told them that he is so going to get it! I can't help it that I speak before I think.' Duo made it safely to his window and into his room, failing to notice the sheets come loose and fall to the ground below.

Wufei stood staring at the window when he noticed Duo's form coming out from a window on the third floor via some sheets and hang gliding in a sense down. Noticing where the sheets came from Wufei forgot all about staring at the stars and went to his desk were he retrieved a Polaroid camera. (Don't ask where he got it from he just had it magically, ok)
Going back to the window Wufei took a few snap shots. 'Ohh, I can see it now, blackmail material! I don't think Duo will be calling me Wu-man for a while' Wufei exited his room a smirk on his face. 'Now lets go see what those onnas think of this!'
He too failed to notice the disappearance of the sheets down the side of the house. . .
****
Heero was doing his annual night check of the grounds, making sure that there was no possible way for intruders to hack into the mainframe computer or get the entrance code for their little hide-a-way. Deftly and quickly he changed the entrance code from 'Triple Cheese Toast' (sorry was watching zoids earlier. . .) to 'Yum yum salt coffee' "There" he said to no one, " the braided baka should be able to remember that, after all it is about food!"
Heero stepped back from the computer and packed his equipment up. Getting up and heading towards the house he noticed a rope of sheets go disappearing from the third room window where the girls were being held. "Damn it! I told Wufei and Duo to keep a better eye on them then that!" Rushing back to the house quickly all that could be heard from the so called 'Perfect Soldier' was a string of curses muttered in to many languages to count.
****
"Nooo, he got safely into his room. I told you we should have untied the rope sooner!" Raye screamed at Lita.
"Now Raye, stop being so hot headed, just because your pride is still hurt because of that 'Hnn' guy, doesn't mean you should take it out on others you know. . ."
Raye was about to reply when they both heard the distinct sound of a key being turned in the lock of their door. Lita gave Raye a look that said, 'Be quiet' before grasping Duo's story book in her hands which he had forgotten since he couldn't climb down the ropes with that in his hands and walking over to the door, ready to hit who ever it was over the head with it.
Raye looked at Lita funnily before getting the gist of her plan and nodding her head. The door opened silently and whoever had opened it turned on the light switch. As this happened Lita knocked the un known figure over the head causing whomever it was to erupt in a string of Chinese cuss words. When both girls had adjusted to the sudden light they were greeted with the sight of Wufei sitting on his ass, and rubbing his sore head, something white and shiny in his hands.
Wufei looked up at whom dared to hit him. "Stupid onna! What did you do that for?"
"Sorry, we thought you were an intruder" Lita explained as she crossed her fingers behind her back.
"Oh well, I've got something to show you two." Wufei said as he produced the pictures he took earlier and waved them infront of the girls faces. "Care to elaborate on why the braided baka was in your room, especially seeing as you are prisoners here and not on holiday?"
"Well umm, you see. . ." Lita began.
"Ahuh, just as I suspected that stupid baka has been . . ."
Wufei never got to finish his sentence as a very angry Heero stormed into the room, the sheets which had been used for ropes grasped firmly in his left hand whilst his right was clenching and unclenching in a fist. Holding up the sheets the only words that escaped from his mouth were " Explain, now"
Lita and Raye looked at each other nervously and turned to Wufei for a bit of help only to find that the young Chinese man had left as soon as he got a look at Heero's bad mood.
Raye looked at Lita who seemed to be at a loss for words, 'Great I wish Mina or Serena were here, those two always know how to spin a tale, but I've never had to lie in my life and I highly doubt that Lita has as well.'
Lita looked at the raging Heero and raised her hands up in the air "Well umm, you see, we err, threw them down in protest, yeah that's it protest. See there to itchy for us to sleep on and we couldn't stand it any longer so we threw them out the window in protest!" A triumphant smile graced Lita's face as she spun this rather elaborate tail.
Heero just raised an eyebrow casually and took Duo's story book from Lita's hand as she had been waving it around to make her story more plausible failing to relies what she was doing. "What's this?"
"Umm, it's just a book we found in the room. . ." Lita replied uncertainly.
"I don't believe you" Heero stated as he opened the book and brandished the name tag in the cover which read 'Property of Duo Maxwell, touch and feel the wrath of Shinigami!'
"Oh, how did that get their, Raye are you playing a trick on me?" Lita questioned her voice rather shaky.
Heero just looked at the couple who were looking rather pale, and turned on his heal, ready to find Duo and demand some answers. 'Geez will that baka ever learn? You'd think after all this time if some one had said no to reading him a bedtime story he'd just accept it and read to himself and not act like a whining toddler!'
Walking down the hall in his thoughts Heero failed to notice that Wufei was coming his way and collided head first with the raging Chinese pilot. Dazed Heero stood and helped Wufei do the same before reaching down to pick up the pictures that he had dropped. Seeing the contents of the pictures Heero's eyes widened slightly, before he handed them back to Wufei.
"That's it! Where the hell is he? (occ, I know but he needs to be for the story. . .) When I find him that baka is going to get a yelling!"
Wufei looked at his fellow pilot in fear, the last time he'd seen Heero so mad was when the court had failed to give him the restraining orders on Relena that he wanted. And to solve that problem Heero had pulled his gun on the entire jury and demanded that they reconsider their decision. The jury had obliged and gave the order that Relena wasn't allowed within fifty meters of Heero and the rest of the Gundam Pilots, much to every ones unspoken relief.
Man it looks like Heero is in an even worse mood then he was then, and I have no doubt that a certain braided baka is at the centre of it all. . .
"You looking for Duo too Heero?"
"You could say that"
"Well, we can yell at him together, I want to get him for taking my keys!"
Heero wordlessly handed over a ring of keys which he took out of his pocket and walked down the hall to Duo's room, Wufei trailing behind him wordlessly.
****
Duo ran soundlessly to the library, trying to shake Heero off his tail. He had already successfully lost Wufei some where in the labyrinth of hallways and rooms, but had yet to shake off the 'Perfect Soldier' Opening the door Duo discovered that Trowa was in there reading what appeared to be a very thick and boring book. Bringing his finger up to his lips Duo motioned for silence before slipping under a sheet covered chair. (the rooms being painted ok)
Heero stalked down the corridor death written in his gaze. Shoving the door to the library open he spotted Trowa and raised his eyebrow questionenally. Trowa's only response was to point to the dust sheet covered chair with out even looking up from his book.
Heero acknowledged his help with a nod of his head before going over to the chair and ripping the sheet off it. Pulling a whimpering Duo out he brandished the pictures Wufei had taken and said in an icy tone, "I want answers now, and it better be a good one for your sake or you'll be joining those two girls in that room since you seem so fond of it."
Duo gulped, 'Oh dear, his serious and I'd rather loose my braid I think then spend any amount of time in that room at the mercy of Heero and Wufei. . .' "Well err, you see Heero, I really wanted a bed time story and well. . ."
"Put a sock in it Duo, now either you stay away from that room or you'll be in there for the rest of your life!" and having said that Heero stormed out of the library to vent his rage on the punching bag in the gym.
Duo gave a small sigh off relief before turning towards Trowa, "Why'd you rat on me? I would have been safe if you hadn't told him!"
Trowa just starred at Duo for a second before he returned to the sanctuary and sanity of his cherished history book on ancient Greeks and Egyptians.
Well I hope you guys enjoy this! I've never written so much b4 but I was feeling a little guilty at not having updated in awhile. Lita will have the next xhapter up soon.
Ja ne Raye.
