Hiya! Now I know that the initiation was supposed to be in this chapter but I had to make some adjustments, and the initiation should be in the next chapter and if it isn't well, I'll write an alternate chapter and post it.

Akima shut her phone and then put it back in her pocket and then started typing on her laptop. Her phone rang.

"Hello? Right." Akima said as she hung up the phone.

~*~*~*~*~

"Une I'll be back in an hour you have my number if you need anything." Akima said as she quickly walked out of Une's office.

~*~*~*~*~

Akima went into her office and put a gun in her ankle holster. Akima slipped on her gun holsters, the pilots walked in just as Akima put two clips in her pocket, and then shut her laptop. She pulled out two guns from her drawer and then checked the clips. She cocked them and then slipped them in the holsters.

@$@$@$@

The others weren't paying much mind to Akima until she cocked her guns. Akima had a stoic mask on while she put her file in the bottom drawer and then locked it. Akima silently walked to the closet and then pulled out a sword and then slipped on her coat and then slid the scabbard of the sword through the hole that was in the back and then grabbed a small plastic bag.

"Going somewhere?" Quatre asked.

"Yeah, I'm going somewhere." Akima said as she picked up her phone.

"Be here in five minuets. Naraku's anything but stupid, I can't say the same for you." Akima said as she shut the door to her closet.

"If I hear you whine one more time I'll have to cut your lips off so you can't speak." Akima said as she hung up the phone.

Akima then finished strapping her sword and then headed for the door.

"Where are you going?" Trowa asked.

"Naraku's silo." Akima said as she opened the door and then exited.

"Hey you'll need backup! It could be a trap!" Zechs exclaimed.

"It doesn't matter whether I live or die. The only thing that matters is that the peace remains and justice is served." Akima said as she walked down the stairs.

"It does too matter if you live or die!" Quatre said.

Akima stopped and looked back at them.

"Just because I live doesn't mean that it will bring back the people who died will it?" Akima asked.

They couldn't answer that. Akima sighed a laugh and started walking down the stairs.

"Are you sure this whole ordeal has anything to do with Sesshomaru?" Zechs asked.

Akima flinched.

"If you had done any research on Naraku you would have found that along with the arsenals he deals he deals drugs and other various things as well. Naraku's father was also the reason why the Sanq kingdom was destroyed in the first place." Akima said as she continued down the steps.

She then looked at her watch and broke out into run. She got into a car just as the pilots got out of the building.

~*~*~*~*~

"Everything set?" Akima asked as Inuyasha, kagome and she got back into the car and drove off.

"Yep. Everything's set." Kagome said.

"They were having a meeting when I got to their second computer room. All the cameras were shut off and nothing was moved." Inuyasha said.

"You didn't take anything did you?" Akima asked.

"No, we remembered what you told us. We know now that Naraku bugs everything he owns just so he knows where they are and go." Kagome said.

"Good cause I checked over this car, and found nothing on it. They must have been having a very important meeting to be so careless." Akima said.

"I took the liberty to plant a small untraceable bug in the ventilation system of their meeting room and so far from what I can hear they know nothing of the meeting." Inuyasha said.

"Good thinking." Akima said ruffling Inuyasha's hair. (Inuyasha? Thinking? Wow!)

~*~*~*~*~

Akima sighed when she got back into HQ. She made her way to her office and then took off her sword. She put her weapons away and then took off her coat and reached for her lower drawer. She unlocked it and then pulled out her files. She then put on her glasses and then opened her laptop. Akima noticed when she opened her top drawer that her ruined pendent was gone but the necklace remained. She shook her head and then pulled a pen and shut the drawer. There was a knock on the door.

"Enter." Akima said as she put away a document.

Sally entered and then smiled.

"Is it time for that physical already?" Akima asked looking at her watch.

"You bet it is." sally said.

"Very well. Let me put this last document away and let's go." Akima said as she signed the document and then put it and the file in her briefcase and then shut and locked it.

She then stood up and followed sally out of the door.

~*~*~*~*~

"I'll need you to take off your shirt and face that wall." Sally said.

"Why so the pilots can't see my chest through that fake mirror right there?" Akima chuckled as she turned around.

"You're the first person to have ever found out that that mirror was a fake." Sally said.

"It's not very hard to tell." Akima said as she unbuttoned her shirt.

"Off with the bra too." sally said.

Akima reached behind her back and then undid the bra and slipped it off and then covered her chest and turned around.

Sally put little monitors all over Akima's stomach and back.

"I need you to remove one of your arms." Sally said.

Akima lifted one of her arms.

"You're not a bit modest are you?" sally asked.

"I do have a little bit of modesty. You don't see me removing both my arms do you?" Akima asked.

"No but I bet you two hundred dollars that you won't flash the guys right now." Sally said with a smile.

"You bet two hundred dollars that I won't flash the guys? Care to put your money where your mouth is?" Akima asked.

Sally reached into her pocket and pulled out her wallet. She pulled out two crisp one hundred dollar bills and laid them on the table next to Akima.

"I'll take that bet." Akima said shaking sally's hand.

Akima stood up and removed her other arm and sally gasped.

~*~*~*~*~

"I never thought a woman's breasts could be so big." Duo said drooling.

The others blushed like tomatoes but couldn't pull their eyes away. (AHAHHAHAHAA! The pilots? Looking like tomatoes? That's very easy to imagine!)

~*~*~*~*~

Akima walked over and sat down with a smile.

Sally put the money in Akima's hand still in shock.

"I do have some modesty. But I'm not afraid to show what I've got. But there are some lines I don't cross." Akima said as she put the money in her pocket.

~*~*~*~*~

After the physical was over with Akima put her bra and shirt back on and then smiled as she went back to her office. The girls came walking down the hall and saw Akima smiling and the pilots blushing like mad. It was unusual for Trowa, Heero, Wufei or Zechs to blush and it made the girls curious. Akima sat down in her chair and was smiling as she opened her laptop and started typing. Wufei walked in and immediately went to the bathroom.

"He'll be in there for a while." Akima smirked to herself and then chuckled.

Akima put her hand to her mouth and then turned her chair around so Wufei wouldn't see her laughing. He came out of the bathroom a while later, with a goofy relaxed expression on his face. Akima pressed her hand to her mouth as her laughter continued.

~*~*~*~*~

Akima looked at her watch and then turned her chair around. Wufei was trying to do anything except look at Akima, which he was finding very hard. Akima stood up and then stretched her shoulders and then raised her arms above her head. Akima pulled her hair out of the bun and let it cascade down her back. She walked over to the window and then sat down on the sill and looked out. She wrapped her arms around herself as she looked out the window. Wufei picked up the book that Akima had wrote and started reading again.

Wufei turned the page; he was entranced by the words of the book. He turned the page again and again and again until he came upon the part. The one part, that made him blush. Wufei smiled remembering that night like it were yesterday. He frowned when it came to his wedding; she hoped they were happy together. How she wished she had a camcorder to record that moment when he struggled to get away. (I can just imagine.)

Wufei looked up from the book at Akima who was staring out the window with her head leaning against the glass. She looked away from the glass and then moved away from the window. Wufei went back to reading and then noticed that it was the last page. He turned it and read the small paragraph that was on it.

(&) I guess I secluded myself from everyone without really knowing it. I guess that's why mother and father are sending me to earth. I guess I'll just live on and remember what it was like to be close to my two best friends. I have to go to earth to take on my responsibility of the heir to the Dragon and Miko clans. (&)

Wufei closed the book and then took off his glasses.

"Shit." Wufei heard a whisper.

He looked over towards Akima and watched as she put a tissue to her nose. She pulled it away and Wufei saw the blood. Akima put the tissue back to her nose and then leaned her head back and pinched the bridge of her nose. She wiped her nose and then sniffed. She put the tissue in the small trashcan next to her desk and then sighed.

~*~*~*~*~

It was going on 9:30 pm so Akima picked up her briefcase and then put her laptop in it and then shut it. She slid on her coat and then stood up. Wufei put her book back were he found it and then slid on his own jacket. Akima walked to the door but Wufei put his hand on hers. Akima looked up into his eyes and then let go of the doorknob.

"Do you need something Wufei?" Akima asked gently.

"Just wanted to let you know, that we'll always be friends." he whispered and pulled her close to himself.

Akima relaxed and wrapped her arms around his waist and he wrapped his arms around her shoulders.

~*~*~*~*~

Akima left the building picked her daughter up from Inuyasha and then went home. The buzzer went off at 5:45 a.m. Sunday morning and Akima hit the button and yawned. She slipped on her crimson silk robe and then walked over to her closet. She walked in and looked through her clothes. She pulled out a white form fitting bodysuit that had a dragon with black, green and red scales snaking it's way around the hips and stomach until it's head was lying over the left shoulder she pulled out a pair of thigh high black soft leather boots and a black belt and then walked out of the closet and set her clothes on the chair in front of her vanity.

She walked passed her bed and into the large bathroom. She leaned in and turned the knobs until steamy water fell from the shower cap. Akima pulled her hair up into a bun and then slid off her robe.

~*~*~*~*~

Akima had just gotten out of the shower when her phone rang.

"Hello?" she asked. "Oh, initiation huh? Before I ask this question did all of your girls go through it? Oh you did. Alright what is this initiation?" Akima asked.

"OH no! You mean," Akima asked with wide eyes.

"You guys didn't mind that?" Akima asked.

"Not at all, hmmm." Akima was cut short.

"Hey I have no problem with that. Being waterlogged, floured, all those high school pranks. " Akima said.

"We'll go out for lunch. Alright bye!" Akima said.

Akima dressed and then walked out and stepped into the limo that was 'required' for her to be in.

~*~*~*~*~

"Where's Akima? She should have been here ten minuets ago." Noin said.

"Don't worry she's here." Wufei said.

The main chair at the top of the dais had it's back to the pilots and Relena. Relena cleared her throat and then stood up.

"I am here today to ask exactly what the Youkai, Dragon and Miko clans do. It is my responsibility to know, so the peace is upheld." Relena said.

"Miss Dorlain, the Youkai, Dragon and Miko clans are to help protect the peace. Look at your bodyguards, each one of them are part of either the Youkai, Dragon or Miko clans maybe even all three." The person in the head chair said.

@$@$@$@

The other clan leaders nodded in agreement. Relena looked at the pilots and they nodded.

@$@$@$@

"Where's Akima?" Relena asked.

The chair turned around.

"Right here Miss Dorlain." Akima said as Relena looked up to see a smiling Akima sitting in the head chair.

"You seem surprised." Akima laughed.

"I am indeed. I didn't expect for uh. uh." Relena stammered.

"A woman to be the head of the clans? In these clans Miss Dorlain a woman can be the head of the clans as well as a man. Despite what others say." Akima said in a tone directed directly at Wufei whom was blushing.

"The clans are like the Preventors. Preventors are the clans; each Preventor is part of one of these clans. The Youkai and dragon clans as well as the others are only meant to protect Japan as well as china and Korea. When in these clans Miss Dorlain you take an oath and uphold a code. 'I here by vow to protect Japan, China and Korea, to uphold the peace for the rest of my life. I vow to help those in need. I vow to remain true to my clans, my elders, my superiors and my mentors from this day forward so help me Kami.' This vow you take to heart. Those who have taken this vow can never take it back; once they are in they stay in. if they betray us they are killed." Akima said.

"How exactly do you protect Japan, China and Korea?" Relena asked.

"We protect them by the best means how. When a situation comes up, we run through the problem, we think of ways to stop it. If there is no other choice than to use other means then it has to be done." Said Wong Fei-Hong of the ninja clan.

"A few more questions and then I'll be on my way," Relena said.

"What would that be Miss Dorlain?" Akima asked.

"How long have you been in these clans Akima?" Relena asked.

Akima cocked an eyebrow. "Roughly around 15 years."

"How old were you when you started?" Relena asked.

"Seven years old." Akima said.

"Why so young?" Relena asked.

"My. talents were developing faster than the normal child so I had to start my training early. Each one of these clan leaders I have learned from. Each leader has certain styles of fighting. Each member of every clan must know at least three of the styles. For one in the high ranks such as I, I have to know all of them. And each member of these clans have to have a high school diploma as well as a two year college education." Akima said.

Relena nodded.

"Well, thank you for your time." Relena said.

Akima stood up as well as the other leaders.

"For the peace." The leaders said at once with their fists to their hearts.

Relena gave a small bow and then exited the room. Akima picked up her briefcase and then shook hands with each of the leaders and then exited.

~*~*~*~*~

Akima walked into HQ and then headed for her office. Akima started running through her files and noticed that she had left one at home.

"Damn." Akima muttered as she stood up.

"Why don't you just come over and talk to me? I know you're over there." Akima smiled looking over at the dark corner of the office.

Heero chuckled and stepped into the light.

"Do you like spying on people?" Akima asked as she pulled her hair up into a bun.

"Only certain people." Heero said with a small smile.

Akima cocked an eyebrow but kept her comment to herself. She walked around and leaned on the front of her desk.

"It's your day off shouldn't you be at home?" Heero asked.

"I should but I'm just finishing up some things, then I'll go home." Akima said.

She heard her cell phone go off and she turned around and leaned over her desk and reached into her desk drawer. She looked at the screen and then shut the phone. When she turned around she came face to face with flour.

"There's my part of the initiation. Now I need some advice." Heero chuckled.

What type of advice does Heero need? Well stay tuned the next installment of The Dance of Life will be on soon!
