Notes/Warnings- Right, future (and currents hints) 1+2+5, and 3+4. So yeah
that's shounen ai.
Um oh yeah this is sort of AU, see the guys are in the Gundam universe, AC195 etc, its all that except their also have powers, you know telepathy, psychic stuff etc. Basically I watched charmed (1 and a bit eps, never seen it before till now) and though its not really based on the show, it did give me the inspiration for this.
Bear with me, it starts straight off with their powers as if it's the norm so if they get their toothbrush to float out the cupboard and in to their hand or something don't be surprised. Lol, hope you like, each part will be like a complete episode, so lots of lil stories, though part of a series. Get it? Well I hope you do and enjoy this, so far its been fun to write, though in places it will have drama, silliness, fluff, basicly lots of variety I hope! - Akumu
Disclaimer- I don't own Gundam Wing or Dragon Ball Z, or anything else I mentioned in this fic that has an owner who earns money for it. Also lyrics sung by Tatu, and for theme of charmed=not mine, don't know who owns them but I don't, I just feel I had to put them in, that they fit or something .

* Chapter 1 - Where the Sakura Blossoms Blow
Up in the Sakura tree he sat, eyes closed, leaning back against the trunk as his legs rested on the sturdy branch. Wufei had been sitting like that for the past hour.
Thinking. Meditating. Reflecting.
They had been engaged in battle mere hours ago. Since getting back the other four pilots had gone to get cleaned up, to shower, clean and wrap their wounds and to rest. He, though no better than they in the injury department had sat up the tree, mostly to berate himself for his mistakes.
'Stupid!' He thought to himself angrily, 'Why couldn't I just focus? I could have easily taken all those suits if I had sensed them first, but lately I haven't been able to focus on anything! I didn't even realise it the other night when Duo plainly swiped my red pepper maki. I wouldn't have minded if I could have actually sense it! Arg!' He groaned mentally.
'Yes you would have.' A mischievous voice teased.
Wufei nearly fell off his branch in surprise at this, 'Hey! Warn me next time!'
'Sorry.' The voice apologised.
'You've been reading my thoughts.' Wufei accused.
'I've been listening to you beat yourself up for the past 10 minutes, yes. See sometimes I can be a very good listener.' The voice quipped in such a way you just knew they had to be smirking.
'Duo, what do you think you are doing, listening to my thoughts!' Wufei growled.
'I was worried, okay? You went off as soon as we got back, before even bothering to clear yourself up. To think you wonder why you can't focus- you need to relax! Worrying so much will get you nowhere! Now get down here.' Duo ordered.
'I'm fine. I've barely got any scratches at all.' Wufei argued.
'Really? Nope, liar. Well let me see, okay your right wrist is twisted, you have a 5cm long, half cm deep incision across your stomach, though not very deep you have a 12cm long cut down your left arm, a bullet wound in your left leg, a...' Duo began to note.
'Stop! Stop inspecting me, I know full well what's wrong with me, cant you just leave me alone and get out my head!' Wufei more stated than asked clearly distressed.
'I can do the latter, but nope I can't leave you alone.' Duo decided becoming quiet. Suddenly the braided boy appeared on Wufei's branch in front of him, smiling kindly he walked forward. "Come on Fei, don't fight me there's no point. Besides if you do I'll have to get Hee-chan." He spoke this threat mischievously.
"Duo." Wufei attempted to get up as he glared, but only managed to let out a cry of pain, for where he had not treated his wounds he hurt a great deal. Duo took this opportunity to take the boy in to his arms, teleporting them both from the tree.
It was a moment later that they both appeared on a bed in a room where Heero was sat on another bed typing on his laptop. He paused a moment, not yet moving his eyes from the screen. "I wondered where you had got to. Took you long enough."
"This is Fei we're talking about here, could you have done it quicker?" Duo raised an eyebrow.
"Point taken. Now Wu are you going to let us clean you up or will we have to use force?" Heero asked, closing his laptop, getting off the bed, walking over to them.
"Resistance won't get me anywhere so I suppose I should just comply, if I don't you'll probably find another way to restrain me." Wufei glared. Duo moved away from him, allowing him to lie down.
"Now Fei-chan, relax will you. If you had of just cleaned up earlier it wouldn't hurt so much, but nooooo you had to be mister stubborn, geez your not a machine you know." Duo taunted good-naturedly.
"Hn." Wufei closed his eyes, he still couldn't understand why they cared. He just wanted to be alone. Okay, maybe he was more depressive than usual. He wasn't usually this stubborn. Maybe he just needed to relax a little. He was tired, physically and mentally. Now he was feeling a little guilty, they were only trying to help him anyway. Before totally getting out of it, he had one clear thought. 'I'm sorry.' He thought, before he left his conscious state.
Heero and Duo weren't angry at him anyway, but his apology confirmed their suspicions that the other boy was merely tired and upset. 'I don't understand why he's beating himself up so much, its not as if the mission was a failure, and our Gundams aren't in that bad shape.' Duo thought, aware of the confusion that sounded in his thoughts.
'Something's blocking his senses, either it's his own worry that is clouding his mind and preventing him from focusing, or its someone else, past or present messing with his mind.' Heero assessed the possibilities.
'Past or present meaning?' Duo wondered not sure as to what Heero meant.
'Past meaning that it could be someone dead, messing with his mind. Think about it Duo, his whole colony was blown up; it could be his dead wife, or one of his relatives or someone else he knew from there. Or it could be someone present, who's living, but if so who? At least if we get rid of the worry and he's still not focusing we'll know if its just him or not.' Heero explained. Duo took a few moments to process this, Heero leaving his mind so he could think without interruptions while they continued to clean up Wufei.
~
The following morning Trowa and Quatre were sitting in the kitchen having breakfast when Duo, having just woken up stumbled in to the room. Sitting straight down in his seat at the table held his and out. Quatre made a few movements of his hand, which resulted in the coffee pot that was on the worktop being made to pour coffee in to Duo's Dragon Ball Z mug, which then proceeded in flying in to Duo's open hand. Taking a sip he then sighed, perking up immediately. "Ohayo." He greeted them cheerfully.
"Morning Duo." Quatre replied happily whilst Trowa merely nodded, and responded mentally. "Where's Heero and Wufei this morning?"
"Heero's taking a shower and Wufei's still sleeping. He's worrying way to much at the moment, we think it might be messing with his focus." Duo explained grabbing a piece of toast from the plate in the centre of the table.
"I'm sure he'll be fine, no doubt in a couple of days." Quatre smiled reassuringly.
"Yeah, your probably right." Duo agreed, deciding that explaining what Heero had told him would do no good, and would merely worry Quatre. It was at that moment Heero entered the room, hair still damp from his shower. "Hey Hee-chan."
"Ohayo." Heero greeted everyone, taking a cup of coffee and standing behind Duo. "Where is Wufei."?
"Still asleep when I last checked." Duo informed the other boy.
"Hn." Heero pondered setting his mug down on the table. "I should check on him. I'll be back in a minute." He nodded and left the room, appearing in the bedroom, he Duo and Wufei shared a second later. Duo was right, Wufei hadn't woken up yet. He wasn't moving much, bar the rise and fall of his chest. Heero knew he'd be annoyed for sleeping so long, so he couldn't really blame him for waking him. Placing a hand to Wufei's forehead he closed his eyes. 'Wufei.' He thought calling quietly, searching through the mass of darkness, in Wufei's subconscious, dreamless part of sleep.
'Hey Heero.' Wufei neared him, the stressed seen in his conscious state not shown in his eyes here, and his hair not restrained in a tight band, but instead flowing around his face, showing the innocence rarely seen. 'What are you doing here?'
'To see if you want to wake up. I thought you might like to know that its almost 10 o'clock.' Heero informed him.
'Oh, I had best wake up then, I've already almost lost about 3 hours. There aren't any more mission are there?'
'No, however there are some things we need to sort out with you today, concerning your mental focus. You seem more relaxed which I hope will be the end of the problem, but if not, we'll need to work out the exact cause, then find a fitting solution.' Heero explained, he placed a hand under Wufei's chin, tilting it to look up at him. 'Please don't fight us, we only want to help.'
'I know. Thank you.' Wufei genuinely smiled freely before closing his eyes. Heero let go of his chin, and stepped away. Wufei and the dark void fading, he closed his eyes, and when he opened them again he was back in their bedroom. Wufei was sitting up in his bed rubbing his eyes, and then he let out a small yawn. "Morning Heero." He mumbled blearily, a small smile gracing his lips.
"Feeling better now?" Heero asked as Wufei got up and out of bed, on his way tugging free the large white t-shirt he wore that nearly covered his chibi dragon boxers, being it was caught within his sheets. He merely nodded. "Good, I'm going to go back down to breakfast, come down when your dressed."
"Okay, I'm gonna take a quick shower, I'll be down in a minute." Wufei decided grabbing some clean clothes and making his way towards the bathroom. Nodding Heero left, a second later he had returned to the kitchen.
"Is he okay then?" Trowa asked expectantly on his sudden return.
"He's fine, I had a talk with him before I woke him up. He'll be down in a minute. Duo and I will be assessing his levels of focus later, if that's alright." Heero looked to Duo for confirmation.
"That's fine. Is he reluctant thought?" Duo wondered eyebrow arched.
"No, he's not upset anymore. He doesn't mind."
"Good." Duo smiled, draining his coffee mug, then getting up and placing it in the sink. Wufei appeared in the room, now showered and dressed, the fresh gauze up his arm still clean, indicating his wounds had been healing well. Magic can only speed up this process so much, however his wrist no longer hurt, and the cut across his stomach didn't feel quite so sore. However the bullet wound in his leg hurt the most out of these injuries, but it only caused him to limp very slightly.
He appeared by the fridge, which he immediately opened, removing the cartoon of orange juice, which he poured in to a glass he had got put the cupboard with only a few movements of his hand. Replacing the juice he walked to the table, sitting down. "Morning." He greeted them before drinking some of his orange.
"Morning Wufei." He was acknowledged by various people who were in the room.
"What are you are Trowa planning on doing today?" Wufei asked Quatre in an attempt to make conversation.
"We still have to finish typing our part of the mission report. We might go outside out the back and sit on that stone bench to write it or something seeing as it's a warm day." Quatre decided.
"Oh. Is our part of the mission report all typed out yet?" Wufei asked Heero and Duo.
"What do you think Wufei? Heero started typing it from the moment he'd cleaned up, we finished it off after we'd cleaned you up." Duo smirked.
"Sorry, I should have done some of it. Is there anything I need to add to it?" Wufei asked.
"No, it was all basic, it really doesn't matter, you write them out more than Duo anyway." Heero shrugged. "Anyway you want any breakfast?" He asked as Quatre and Trowa cleared away their things and left the room, being they had long since finished.
"No, its quite late, anyway, we'll be having lunch in a couple of hours." Wufei realised finishing his juice.
"True." Duo nodded, washing up Wufei's glass and Heero's mug. "When are we going to work out this whole focus thing?"
"We should do it after lunch, I expect that is when Quatre and Trowa will do their mission report, we might as well sort out general things for now." Heero decided. "We'll do it in our bedroom. Is that okay with you Wufei?" Wufei nodded as it was agreed.
~
About 4 hours later the three were sat in their room on Wufei's bed. He sat in the centre eyes closed. Duo sat to his left, and raised his hand so it was placed near Wufei's right arm, slowly getting closer, waiting for Wufei to say he sensed it. However yet again he touched the boys arm before that happened. "Okay you sensed it correct 5 time out of twenty." Heero sighed, "You might as well open your eyes now. "I really do think that its not just worry anymore."
"What do you think it is then?" Wufei asked taken aback a little.
"He thinks someone's messing with your mind." Duo informed him.
"Like who?" Wufei asked raising an eyebrow.
"We're not quite sure. We aren't even sure whether the person is dead or alive." Heero explained, picking his laptop off the floor. "Do you have any idea who?"
"I thought I'd been shutting someone out." Wufei mumbled, to this Heero and Duo looked at him. "I'm not sure who, I recognise them but I can't tell who it is."
"Okay that narrows our searches, dead person right?" Duo asked.
"Yes."
"Maybe you should stop blocking who ever it is and see what they want, they obviously aren't going to stop messing with your mind until they've got what they want."
"Yeah, I guess so." Wufei admitted closing his eyes, "If I need you to help me I'll let you know."
"Right." Duo and Heero agreed before shutting up. It was only a couple of seconds later that Wufei had totally tuned them out. His mind was cleared, first turning black, and then as the darkness dispersed he found himself sitting under a Sakura tree. This time he acknowledged the presence above him before he heard her voice. "Hey Wufei, so you finally decided to talk to me." The girls voice spoke. He looked up to see her, though he already knew who it was.
"Nataku." He whispered taking in the perfect image of his dead wife, though better known as his best friend. "I didn't realise you wanted to talk to me, I just automatically blocked you not knowing who it was. I'm sorry."
"Its okay. I just figured I'd hang around till we'd talked, I should have guessed it'd mess with your focus. I'm glad you've been okay. Well, as okay as you can be in a war, still stubborn as hell nevertheless, though you wouldn't be Wufei if you weren't at least a little stubborn." She smirked.
"So Meiran, you can watch over me?" Wufei asked cautiously.
"Sure can. Everyone's up here and we're all fine. Everyone checks up on you every once in a while, but I'm the one who's supposed to watch over you, fun hobby between eating and sparing with my katana and stuff."
"You haven't changed at all. You are not disappointed with me are you, you as in the colony?"
"Nope, we're there cheering you on, fine sometimes your not the best, but you try your hardest and put your heart in it which is fine by us. Ah but now I think of it there are some matters they are a little disappointed about. You really are too stubborn about some things."
"Oh?" Wufei asked tilting his head to the side a little in confusion.
"Concerning a certain two brown haired, blue eyed boys. Well one of them does have kind of purpley eyes at times but that's beside the point..." She trailed off, arching an eyebrow, amused at his worried expression.
"Oh forgive me Nataku! I'm sorry ancestors, I realise this must displease you all, I really didn't mean to become, so, fond of them. It just happened I swear. I understand if I am to be condemned by them, and that you are my wife, but you know you were more of a best friend, or sister to me. Yet still I never intended anything thing like this to occur, and I." He rambled on mumbling clearly apologetic and upset before being silenced by an index finger being placed on her two lips.
"Shhh. That's not it, we are not like that, we know you, and we know them and clearly know what your all about. We are merely disappointed at your cowardice. Really you should tell them you like them. Oh well I guess for the time being it does make things interesting for us, but really, try not to take too long." She scolded playfully.
His eyes widened in surprise, "You don't mind? But wait I cant anyway, I don't even know if they like me."
"Believe me they do." She said with a wink. "Anyway I've got to go now, just say I needed a chat with you or something. Next time thought try not to ignore me, its so much easier when you don't. Remember be good, I'll be watching." With that she gave him a quick hug, which he smiled on receiving.
"Good bye Nataku, and thank you." As he let her go, she stood back smiling and disappeared in a pool of white light, he swore he saw a pair of wings upon her back before she completely vanished. The setting he was in again became black, then he opened his eyes to see two faces looking down at him.
"You back with us buddy?" Duo asked looking down at him.
"Yeah." Wufei nodded sitting up off the bed. "What happened?"
"When you went in your trance state you collapsed and seemed as if your mind totally had left your body or something." Heero explained. "You feel okay?"
Wufei smirked at the voice he heard in his head, 'get in there.' It jeered. He wasn't sure if it was Meiran or just what he'd expect her to say, but either way he inwardly shrugged, might as well.
"Actually I do feel a bit dizzy, but I'll be okay." Wufei smiled weakly, placing a hand to his face to cover his right eye as he tried to stand to act as if he really was dizzy and to hide the glint in his eye.
"No, Wu you should lay down or something." Duo responded worried, pushing the boy down to the bed.
"Okay, if you think so, I do feel a little tired." That was true, he did. "I should be okay though, you can go do whatever you need to do."
"Its fine, I just need to type, I'll sit here and do it." Heero nodded sitting on his bed.
"Yeah and I've only got my new manga to read to read, I already sorted out Deathscythe, we can keep an eye on you Fei!" He winked sitting down on his bed to read his manga.
"Thank you." Wufei nodded closing his eyes. 'Well it's a start.' He thought to himself falling asleep, more peaceful knowing he was being watched over by those who cared for him, both past and present.

"No, its quite late, anyway, we'll be having lunch in a couple of hours." Wufei realised finishing his juice.
"True." Duo nodded, washing up Wufei's glass and Heero's mug. "When are we going to work out this whole focus thing?"
"We should do it after lunch, I expect that is when Quatre and Trowa will do their mission report, we might as well sort out general things for now." Heero decided. "We'll do it in our bedroom. Is that okay with you Wufei?" Wufei nodded as it was agreed.

About 4 hours later the three were sat in their room on Wufei's bed. He sat in the centre eyes closed. Duo sat to his left, and raised his hand so it was placed near Wufei's right arm, slowly getting closer, waiting for Wufei to say he sensed it. However yet again he touched the boys arm before that happened. "Okay you sensed it correct 5 time out of twenty." Heero sighed, "You might as well open your eyes now. "I really do think that its not just worry anymore."
"What do you think it is then?" Wufei asked taken aback a little.
"He thinks someone's messing with your mind." Duo informed him.
"Like who?" Wufei asked raising an eyebrow.
"We're not quite sure. We aren't even sure whether the person is dead or alive." Heero explained, picking his laptop off the floor. "Do you have any idea who?"
"I thought I'd been shutting someone out." Wufei mumbled, to this Heero and Duo looked at him. "I'm not sure who, I recognise them but I can't tell who it is."
"Okay that narrows our searches, dead person right?" Duo asked.
"Yes."
"Maybe you should stop blocking who ever it is and see what they want, they obviously aren't going to stop messing with your mind until they've got what they want."
"Yeah, I guess so." Wufei admitted closing his eyes, "If I need you to help me I'll let you know."
"Right." Duo and Heero agreed before shutting up. It was only a couple of seconds later that Wufei had totally tuned them out. His mind was cleared, first turning black, and then as the darkness dispersed he found himself sitting under a Sakura tree. This time he acknowledged the presence above him before he heard her voice. "Hey Wufei, so you finally decided to talk to me." The girls voice spoke. He looked up to see her, though he already knew who it was.
"Nataku." He whispered taking in the perfect image of his dead wife, though better known as his best friend. "I didn't realise you wanted to talk to me, I just automatically blocked you not knowing who it was. I'm sorry."
"Its okay. I just figured I'd hang around till we'd talked, I should have guessed it'd mess with your focus. I'm glad you've been okay. Well, as okay as you can be in a war, still stubborn as hell nevertheless, though you wouldn't be Wufei if you weren't at least a little stubborn." She smirked.
"So Meiran, you can watch over me?" Wufei asked cautiously.
"Sure can. Everyone's up here and we're all fine. Everyone checks up on you every once in a while, but I'm the one who's supposed to watch over you, fun hobby between eating and sparing with my katana and stuff."
"You haven't changed at all. You are not disappointed with me are you, you as in the colony?"
"Nope, we're there cheering you on, fine sometimes your not the best, but you try your hardest and put your heart in it which is fine by us. Ah but now I think of it there are some matters they are a little disappointed about. You really are too stubborn about some things."
"Oh?" Wufei asked tilting his head to the side a little in confusion.
"Concerning a certain two brown haired, blue eyed boys. Well one of them does have kind of purpley eyes at times but that's beside the point..." She trailed off, arching an eyebrow, amused at his worried expression.
"Oh forgive me Nataku! I'm sorry ancestors, I realise this must displease you all, I really didn't mean to become, so, fond of them. It just happened I swear. I understand if I am to be condemned by them, and that you are my wife, but you know you were more of a best friend, or sister to me. Yet still I never intended anything thing like this to occur, and I." He rambled on mumbling clearly apologetic and upset before being silenced by an index finger being placed on her two lips.
"Shhh. That's not it, we are not like that, we know you, and we know them and clearly know what your all about. We are merely disappointed at your cowardice. Really you should tell them you like them. Oh well I guess for the time being it does make things interesting for us, but really, try not to take too long." She scolded playfully.
His eyes widened in surprise, "You don't mind? But wait I cant anyway, I don't even know if they like me."
"Believe me they do." She said with a wink. "Anyway I've got to go now, just say I needed a chat with you or something. Next time thought try not to ignore me, its so much easier when you don't. Remember be good, I'll be watching." With that she gave him a quick hug, which he smiled on receiving.
"Good bye Nataku, and thank you." As he let her go, she stood back smiling and disappeared in a pool of white light, he swore he saw a pair of wings upon her back before she completely vanished. The setting he was in again became black, then he opened his eyes to see two faces looking down at him.
"You back with us buddy?" Duo asked looking down at him.
"Yeah." Wufei nodded sitting up off the bed. "What happened?"
"When you went in your trance state you collapsed and seemed as if your mind totally had left your body or something." Heero explained. "You feel okay?"
Wufei smirked at the voice he heard in his head, 'get in there.' It jeered. He wasn't sure if it was Meiran or just what he'd expect her to say, but either way he inwardly shrugged, might as well.
"Actually I do feel a bit dizzy, but I'll be okay." Wufei smiled weakly, placing a hand to his face to cover his right eye as he tried to stand to act as if he really was dizzy and to hide the glint in his eye.
"No, Wu you should lay down or something." Duo responded worried, pushing the boy down to the bed.
"Okay, if you think so, I do feel a little tired." That was true, he did. "I should be okay though, you can go do whatever you need to do."
"Its fine, I just need to type, I'll sit here and do it." Heero nodded sitting on his bed.
"Yeah and I've only got my new manga to read to read, I already sorted out Deathscythe, we can keep an eye on you Fei!" He winked sitting down on his bed to read his manga.
"Thank you." Wufei nodded closing his eyes. 'Well it's a start.' He thought to himself falling asleep, more peaceful knowing he was being watched over by those who cared for him, both past and present.
