"Denotes speech."
'Denotes thought.'

Denotes writing.

"Denotes over a phone or any other form of com-system."

(Denotes my interruptions.)

Yeah! I'm back! For almost two weeks now my computer hasn't been working so I couldn't start writing until now. As it turns out, it was the laser mouse that was causing all of the trouble -_-; I know, go figure. Anyway, thank you, everyone, for all of the wonderful reviews that you've sent to me and I hope to make this chapter even better then the last. Anyway, on with Chapter Eleven!

Chapter Eleven

"Well, it looks like, if you want Zero-one, you'll have to go through all of us first." Une replied proudly, her head held high and her eyes leveled on that of the masked man's, failing to notice the figure in light purple glide in behind her, and raise a pistol with the hammer already cocked.

"If you insist." the figure said in an icy tone, her eyes flashing behind her thick glasses and her carrot colored hair swaying wildly in the soft breeze that drifted in through the shattered windows as she fired a warning shot that grazed past Anne's ear and ruffling her light brown tresses. Une spun around.

"It's you!" Une gasped, "But why?" she questioned as Heero trained his sights on Maria's face while Relena tightened her grip on his arm.

"You ignorant fool. Why does anyone challenge the great and all mighty Preventers? It's all very simple, when one actually thinks about it; the answer is power, power is what all inspiring masterminds crave." Maria replied sarcastically, her hand not wavering her pistol a millimeter from its intended target, Preventer Earth's forehead.

"Ma'am, your orders?" the masked man requested as he trotted down the three steps from the Alter and over to where she and Anne stood. Saluting as he came to a stop.

"Ah yes, the boy, the one with the blonde hanging from his elbow, he is Zero-one. Get him!" Maria ordered, her mind not missing a beat as the rest of the hostages within the room jumped or gasped in shock. Maria sneered as she thought, 'Apparently nobody had ever bothered to tell all of the Preventers that they were working with one of the greatest pilots known to man. How delightful!'

"Heero… Heero, listen to me…" Relena whispered out of the corner of her mouth as a few of Maria's soldiers began to circle around them.

"Hn?" Heero glanced down at her.

"Hush…. Don't let them hear you. You have to run, it's you that they're after; they wouldn't dare do anything to us until they have you. You have to get away and find help, somehow." Relena murmured quickly before she pushed him away and began to scream, successfully drawing everyone's attention to herself, saying, "No It- it's not possible! You-- You can't be him! I saw him die at the bunker! I know I did! You're not him, you can't be!"

"What, Relena what are you--?" Heero began but, after catching the fire-like burn within her aquamarine eyes, caught on and, in the blink of an eye, had pushed his way past Maria's men and made it out of the closest available opening to him, one of the shattered windows.

"What are you standing around for? GO AFTER HIM!" Maria hollered but by the time they had made it to the window from which he had jumped, he was long gone. "Well, no matter, he will be back, he wouldn't dare run the risk of something happening to his precious, sweet, little princess Relena." Maria glared as she grabbed Relena by her chin and dug her nails into the younger woman's tender flesh. Relena said nothing as Maria ordered her men to load all of the hostages into armored trucks.

Splash, splash, splash, patter, patter, patter, thud, thud, thud. Everything around him seemed to be drowned out by the varying sounds that his black dress shoes made as he ran, first, down the alley adjacent to the church, then out into the crowded streets, and into the echoing warehouse that seemed to suit his needs for anonymity. 'I have to get them out of there. There is no two ways about it. But how am I going to do it?' Heero pondered as he checked to make sure that the door behind him was securely locked in case one of Maria's thugs had managed, by sheer luck on their part, to follow him. His good lung wheezed in complaint as he took in one shaking breath after another. He pounded his fist against the doorframe and he cursed himself silently, 'This isn't a good time for my body to decide not to cooperate!'

"…You have to run, it's you that they're after; they wouldn't dare do anything to us until they have you. You have to get away and find help, somehow."

"Relena…" Heero's voice croaked out as he rested his forehead up against the heavy metal door as he recalled her pleading whisper and her determined eyes. She knew exactly what she was asking of him; she knew that she was asking him to abandon them and to save his own skin, that she was asking him to be a coward. "I well get them back!" Heero proclaimed to the echoing building as he wrenched the door open, ignoring the fact that it was still locked, with renewed vigor and thundered off. The foreboding clouds in the sky seemed to announce the blood lust that shone darkly in his Persian blue eyes.

*****

"Damn it, Relena, stop twitching! You aren't making this any easier!" Sally chided as she lifted the false layer of skin tissue and hair near the back of the younger woman's head and began to do what could only be described as "fiddling" with the mechanical optical lobe that lay hidden underneath, attached to her skull in such a way so that it didn't bleed when opened for adjustments.

"But that HURTS!" Relena complained as Sally shifted one of the sensors over too far and knocked Relena's sight off completely.

"Keep it down. We don't want to alert anyone." Trowa said coolly from his position closest to the front of the cell's iron bars. He was keeping a look out for any of the soldiers that marched down the halls at odd increments. This effectively ridded them of the option of just knocking out a group and sneaking out on their own, as they wouldn't know how soon the next group would be upon them.

"Give the girl a brake, Trowa! This isn't going to be easy for her." Catherine said from her spot on the floor next to her brother.

"Water, are you sure this is going to work?" Une questioned for the third time in the past hour.

"I don't know. Reversing the way the signal transmits through one eye, along with activating the computerized image synthesizer, should send Heero an image of whatever Relena sees through that one eye while she can still see what he does through the other. However, there is no way to calibrate his without him here so there is no guarantee that he will even receive anything." Sally replied pausing in her work to give Relena a short rest.

"That isn't much to go on, Sal." Lucrezia commented.

"I'm open to suggestions if any of you can come up with something better." Sally said dryly. Nobody said anything else on the topic. The room dropped quickly into a tense silence. Sally returned to working on her patent.

"Ouch." Relena hissed through tightly clenched teeth.

"Sorry Relena."

*****

"Hey! Hold up, you haven't been authorized to go in there!" the once bored woman, now wide eyed with shock, screamed as she fought to pull him back from Preventer Sunrise's office door.

"Now is not the time to be worrying about protocols. Let me speak to Middi. It is an emergency." Heero said, gritting his teeth all the while, as he forced his way into Middi Une's office.

"Emergency? I would say so, as you can't seem to wait until my older sister gets back." Middi, taking after their mother's looks, was small and narrow in the shoulders with curly blonde hair and sea foam green eyes while Anne looked more like the feminine form of their father with her straight brown hair, broad frame, and dark brown eyes.

"Preventer Earth along with Two, Three, Four, Five, Water, Fire and Wind have been captured as well as the Relena Dorian and all of the other guests at Sally's wedding. I was almost unable to escape myself to inform you of the Titan's attack." Heero said, wasting no time and getting straight to the root of the problem.

"Preventer Data!" Middi called to the woman who still held a firm grip on Heero's jacket sleeve.

"Ma'am?" The Preventer questioned slowly as she quickly righted herself, putting her hands behind her back when Heero tuned his glare in on her.

"Call the back-up support."

"Y-yes Ma'am!" The other woman said before scrambling out of Preventer Sunrise's office, closing the door behind her as she made a quick salute as she exited.

"Have a seat while we wait, Preventer One, and tell me what happened to my sister and the others." Middi said as she attempted to remain calm, her voice cracked and strained at the thought of, after finding her older sister after so long a time apart, losing her just when they were finally starting to piece their lives back together. Absently, she pondered about what Marie-Maya would say if it ever came down to that. Heero walked over to the front of her desk and seated himself directly in front of her. "Tell me everything that you know." She said as she returned to her own seat and listened as Heero replayed everything in his mind and relaying it to her in his, quick, computer-like accuracy.

A knock on the door alerted them back to the real world as a huge, ape-like man with squinty, harsh, brown eyes entered along with four others, which were, obviously, some of his most-trusted men and women. "I thought I told you that I would have no part in anything that you did anymore after what had happened to my brother and sister." He mumbled, the gravelly sound of his voice making it sound louder then he had actually intended.

"I know that Race but you said, also, that if you could get the chance to get even with the ones who did it, you would. I believe that I know just how you can do it." Middi replied soothingly. Racimous Eleri was still very bitter that Preventer was unable to protect two of the people that he would ever admit to caring for.

"Well then? What are we standing here for? Let's roll." Racimous said and, on that note, they set to organizing a rescue squad larger then any of the other Preventers on the base had ever seen. All of which was run under Race's keen eye and willful ruling. Heero was not impressed.

"Hold up. What makes you so sure that they are still where you left them, Preventer?" Middi asked, addressing Heero as she did so, before glancing at the quietly blinking red light on her Videophone.

"There is a chance that they have relocated, but the longer that we wait the more likely that they will have moved on already." Heero replied.

"Well then, I guess I do have a valid reason why a cheaply made trace-blocker is calling my line." Middi said as she allowed the call to come through. While the screen showed nothing, and the call was a digitally altered tape recording, they were still able to trace the call back to its original location. "Gentlemen, we as a rescue mission on our hands. Let's take care of it." Middi said as they rushed out of her office with Preventer Data not far behind, sending out orders as they went.

"Is everyone ready to go?" Racimous asked as he paced back and forth in front of the twenty, second-best, Preventers that he had assembled for the mission two hours later. Heero stood off to the far side of the room, growling under his breath as he debated whether or not he should take a teaser pistol to Racimous' backside for not having bothered to spare a second glance at the gimped, green-eyed, Jessie McCall.

"SIR, YES SIR!" came the returned, nearly deafening, reply from the all too enthusiastic young men.

Heero snorted, 'Newbies. Go figure.'

"You got a problem, kid?" Racimous questioned as he turned his attention to the scrawny boy in one corner of the room. With narrow, neon green, eyes and messy, spiked, brown hair with the ends of it dyed, Racimous passed one look at him and deemed the kid a punk-assed brat. Racimous tilted his head back and forth, cracking his neck as if to intimidate the boy, as he waited for the wannabe-war-child to reply. He wasn't going to be disappointed.

"Preventer Smoke, not 'Kid'. I'm going in with them."

*****

"Everything is going according to plan," Stated her second in commend as he marched at a slowed pace, attempting to match her shorter stride as they walked down to the holding-cell level.

"Very good. And Zero-one?" Maria questioned as she made eye contact with the masked man. His icy, crystal-like, blue eyes were barely visible from behind the ski mask that adorned his face.

"Whereabouts are still unknown."

"Keep working on it. We need him to complete our ultimate goal," Maria commanded her voice chilling him to the bone with it's controlled fury. Silently, he made a note to see if he could get faster results from the technology division via smashing in their lead-man's face a bit.

"WELL, look at we have here! If it isn't the great and all-mighty queen of the Titans. Come to check on your prisoners, hum?" Preventer Two commented loudly from one of the many cells that divided up the hostages. Maria narrowed her eyes; the statement sounded more like a warning to his fellow men then the usual rude jabbering that normally came from the sorely beaten pilot.

"Mind your tongue, least you lose it. Remember, Duo Maxwell, I am not beyond having you killed sooner rather than later. I just need to keep at least one of you alive to act as bait, after all," Maria threatened. Duo's face took on a dark and menacing glow as he narrowed his eyes in turn and twisted his lips up unto what could be called a devilish sneer.

"You can't kill death," He growled softly so that only she could hear as they continued to walk past. Maria spun to regard him once again but he had already washed the expression away and returned his face back to his usual, arrogantly smug, grin. Maria eyed him but for a moment more before forcing the sinking feeling from out of her stomach and continuing on down the hall. Duo smiled; he knew that he had shaken her resolve. It was only a matter of time now before she made a mistake.

"That went well," Wufei smirked from his corner of what they had all dubbed "the cage", as he stood up from his crossed-legged position, he arched his back and made Duo hiss as nearly every vertebrae cracked back into place.

"Ugh… Did you HAVE to do that? I don't know when they actually plan on feeding us and I want to make what I had for breakfast last as long as possible, thank you vary much!" Duo said as he fought the urge to not throw-up. 'Figures, the only thing that makes me queasy, is the sound of snapping bones,' Duo thought as he willed himself to sit down on the dusty floor.

"Duo, that's gross!" Hilde exclaimed in reply to his comment.

"Heh, don't blame me, blame the contortionist in the corner!"

"Keep it down; I'm trying see if I can hear anything that they are saying," Zechs muttered as he placed a firm grip over Duo's mouth in order to silence the braided man as he pressed himself as far into the front corner of the cell as he could manage without causing any suspicion.

*****

The back bay door to the plane was signaled to open as Jessie McCall cracked his neon green eyes open and slowly lifted his head and leered at the smug Racimous Eleri, who seemed to think that the smaller man had fallen asleep unintentionally. Heero inwardly rolled his eyes; that was mistake number three that the tenacious fool had made since they had first met. 'Duo would say it best; it is going to be one of THOSE missions,' Heero thought as he stood up, stretching to his full height as he did so, not willing to feel stunted by the older man and his seven-feet and ten-inches of legs and torso.

"Welcome back, sleeping beauty!" Racimous taunted as the rest of his men howled with laughter in the background.

"How soon until we reach the drop-site?" Heero asked loudly over the whooshing sound of the air as it blew past the open bay door and sent loose papers and small equipment flying.

"T-minus twenty minutes!" Preventer Data shouted back before Racimous could reply.

"Well, there is your answer. Now then, Preventer Smoke, why don't you be a good little boy and get suited up?" Racimous joked, thinking, 'If this kid thinks that he's getting off with being up here, doing a desk job, then he's got another thing coming.'

Racimous' smirk seemed to say it all as Heero read the man's expression before he strapped on the nearest parachute, "Roger that," he said effectively countering the verbal attack and dropping Racimous into what could only be called stunned silence as Heero began organizing the troops before Racimous finally recovered and said, with a new-found respect for the younger man, "You take lead for the first group, Preventer Smoke."

"Right. Squad one! Move out!" Heero replied with a nod before pushing himself out the hatch with ten others not far behind him. Heero reached over to his shoulder and flicked on the radio that was secured there.

"Come in, Squadron leader one! Are you there? Over," Preventer Data's voice said as the machine crackled to life.

"Leader one, here. What is it? Over," Heero replied as he pulled the ripcord and opened the pack that was strapped onto his backside and around his thighs. Amusingly, he noted, how some of the men might be walking oddly later due to the fact that the harness was dangerously close to the crotch region of their pants.

"You're orders are to infiltrate the enemy base and get those hostages out. Over."

"Roger that. Tell Racimous to have his men act as decoys. Over."

"Will do, Preventer Smoke. Air base out."

Heero glanced up at his men around his parachute. "You heard her. Get ready, we're going in!"

Dorothy looked up dully as bits of dirt. Dust and mortar between the hard stone blocks that made up the walls of the cell that she was held in along with some of the others crumbled and fell to the floor. "Looks like someone has finally come for us." She commented dryly.

"Nobody has arrived yet and until they do, I'm still going to hold to the belief that we're on our own. Don't get your hopes up." Milliardo stated as he slumped back down to the floor of the cell.

"So, what are we waiting for? Why haven't we tried to escape yet?" Dorothy scowled; it always annoyed her that, when faced with a challenge, even the Preventers were capable of chickening out.

"Now isn't the right time for that, Dorothy. Please, try to understand that we are more than aware of our situation and are doing everything within our power to be ready when we CAN make our move." Quatre said as he rubbed the space between her shoulder blades reassuringly. Dorothy sighed in defeat.

"Where is that blasted, Yuy, anyway? He should have been here to rescue us by now," She pondered softly to herself as she allowed Quatre's gentle massage sooth away the ache that she had acquired when she had been pushed to roughly into the cell, in which they now sat. Carefully, she lifted her eyes to cast them about the small room; Duo, Hilde, Wufei, Zechs, Quatre, and her self were held in the room. Which meant that Une, Relena, Noin, Trowa, Sally, and Catherine along with many of the other guests were either tucked away into one other cell, or scattered about the rest of the base. 'Lovely,' Dorothy thought as another tremor shook the compound followed by Wufei slamming his fists on his thighs, swearing colorfully. "Problem, Chang?" Dorothy questioned.

"Bastards… How long do they intend to keep us in here? Eh? How long?" Wufei demanded.

"Say what? Don't tell me that you're claustrophobic!" Duo questioned jokingly, earning an icy glare from the Chinese Mobile Suit pilot and no verbal reply.

"Stop it Duo, this is no time to be the antagonist among our group. If you two have a bone to pick with each other save it until after we've made our escape," Zechs chided as he quickly placed himself between Duo and Wufei in an attempt to keep them from throwing actual punches at one another.

"Zechs is right, you guys, we can't afford to be fighting with each other right now," Quatre said, acting as the voice to reason like he had so many times before. "It's far too risky at the moment for that."

"Hold on a minute. Can you be so sure about that, Quatre?" Dorothy asked with a mischievous glint in her eyes.

Quatre turned and looked at her curiously, "What do you mean?"

*****

BLAM! VOOSH. Heero smirked as he dropped the, now useless, detonator to the floor with a satisfying "clank" as the smoke clear out of the area that had been designated as: Cell-block 08 in bold gray letters on the wall. With a signal to his men, they advanced into the hall, using C-4 to open cells with people inside as they found them and providing the captive Preventers with weapons and directions out of the base with the orders: "If you aren't out by the time we are, we're blowing up the base with you still in it." Heero considered that to be the best motivation to get anyone moving. Odin would have been proud.

"Cell ten in section eight, all clear!" "Cell eleven, all clear." Heero's men called as they found empty cells.

"That's the last of them, sir. What is our next move Commander?" asked Preventer Domino, Heero's second-in-command for the mission.

"Regroup and head for Block-nine," Heero ordered as his men rushed to follow his commands. 'Puppets,' Heero thought, 'Like simple minded puppets.' While one's ability to follow orders is key in military combat situations, Heero knew from first hand experience that, at some point, one has to toss out the rule-book and the "pecking-order" and follow your own instincts to survive. These men would be dead by the end of the month, Heero was sure of it.

"Sir, are you alright?" Private Michel Conway questioned when he noticed that the commander was standing stock still, as if lost in a daze. Conway waved his hand in front of his higher-ranking officer's face. Preventer Smoke didn't respond. "Sir? You're orders, sir?"

Heero blinked and shook his head, "I'm fine," He said with a grunt. Silently, he puzzled over the strange fuzzy-ness that kept fading in and out of his right eye which, at some points, almost changed into a whole new picture entirely.

"Sir?"

"We proceed to block-09."

"Sir, yes sir!"

*****

"Open the door," Maria ordered her second in command icily, "and be snappy about it."

He gave the tart reply of, "Yes ma'am," before walking over to the control panel next to the door and entering the code to unlock it. Sally had barely enough time to tuck her hairpin out of sight before the door slid open with a sharp "hiss".

"So, have you come to kill us?" Relena asked as she stood up slowly. Her hand was placed lightly on the wall next to her for balance. Maria smirked as she took it as a sign of weakness.

"Why, where ever have made you think that?" Maria questioned, coyly as she pulled her run from out underneath her robes.

Une jumped to her feet and attempted to push Relena out of the way of the woman's deadly aim, "RELENA GET--!"

BANG!

"I've been wanting to do that for almost a month now…" Maria's ex-second in command said as he lowered his own pistol as he watched Maria's blood ooze slowly out of her scalp before removing his mask. Relena gasped, "It's you! But you were dead!"

"Well done, Preventer Camouflage," Une said, sighing with relief, "You nearly had me worried for a moment there."

"I was the best for the job." Preventer Camouflage, as known as: Joshua Muller replied as he helped them out of the cell. Relena refused to be assisted even after she as nearly tripped over to corpse.

"Anne, what is this all about? I sure that I'm missing something." Sally questioned as she helped assist Lucrezia in getting the other cells open. Joshua didn't have the codes for all of them.

"Mr. Muller has been working for us for years now as an undercover bodyguard for Relena, so undercover that she was unaware of it herself, but when we got word of the titans' plans, we had Joshua arrange for a stand-in while he took on the task of slipping into Maria's ranks," Une explained.

"Unfortunately, I was a poor judge of character when I chose Nicholas Castro to take my place. I personally saw that he was dead after all that he put you through, Relena. I'm only sorry that I didn't see it until it was too late," Joshua apologized.

"So, that man who I thought was you, was really nothing more than…" Relena trailed off.

Josh sighed as he lowered his head, "Correct."

"But what about Darren?" Quatre asked as he stepped out of his cell with the others not far behind him.

"Who do you think managed to get him into Maria's network?" quipped a cheery voice as a tall and thin young man stepped through the doorway at the other end of the cellblock.

"Darren!" Quatre shouted as he ran up to his friend and shook his hand. "I can't believe that it's actually you. I was so sure that you were really dead; I don't know why I even doubted that you could have survived. How are your sister and Wong, are they okay?"

Darren chuckled, "They're both fine, though Race must be going stir-crazy by now. I say that we get out of here, after we phone-in and let Yuy know that he can call off his dogs. Sissy and Wong have a shuttle ready and waiting for us in bay three."

"Yuy's dogs? Heero? He's HERE?" Relena questioned, her voice panicked.

"Yeah as a matter of fact he was last seen--" Darren's reply was drowned out by the sound of the door at the end of the cellblock being blown open and Heero, followed by the rest of his team, came charging in.

"HEERO!" Relena screamed as she launched herself into his arms and knocked him flat on his back in surprise. Needless to say, he wasn't expecting her to be free from her cell and waiting for him.

"--Not two cell blocks away from us…" Darren mumbled the last of his sentence.

"Good. That'll save us some time. Let's get out of here." Joshua ordered as he helped both Heero and Relena up before leading the way to the docking bay.

"Heero, are you okay?" Relena whispered two hours later, in the shuttle back to Cinq.

"Yeah. You?"

"I'm fine," she smiled.

*****

Two weeks later they news was abuzz with this headline: VFM hits it off with top Preventer Pilot: Hiroshima Mayes, the Japanese one-week wonder was one in one of the fighters that was responsible for Miss Relena's rescue from the Titans' foul clutches. Mrs. Relena Mayes and her Husband Hiro plan on honeymooning in the Swiss Alps. May they have a happy and wonderful marriage for years to come.

The end

Attention all readers! I'm sorry that it's taken me so long to, finally, finish Never, Ever, After, but, believe me, life happened and I haven't had time to until now. Thank you all for you're wonderful reviews (and flames) and I plan on starting on the next fic as soon as you all are done VOTING for it!

Happy reviewing/voting and thank you everyone!

~Prinder

1. I know this has already been done, but I think the person that was originally writing it stopped, and besides that, I plan to put a few new twists to if then she did, I'm thinking about going a Gundam wing/Escaflowne fic; it would have five parts to the full series, the first part would be totally Escaflowne (mostly about how Hitomi gets back to Gaea and about her and Van's son, Aden Folken de Kenzaki-Fanel, long name, I know, and how he got separated from them) "Aden! Aden, where are you?" "I'm over here mummy!".

The second part would be Totally Gundam Wing (this part would be about how Heero discovers the hidden planet, a secret of Odin Lowe, Something that Dr.J left for him and eventually he gets taken to Gaea) "What's this? Cards…? That's what he left in his will for me?".

The third would be about Heero wandering around on Gaea trying to figure some things out and ending up meeting Van and Hitomi and the things that happen because of it "Oh good! You're awake! I was starting to worry about you." "Relena?" "Nope! You're a good guesser though; my name is Celena".

The fourth part is about Relena and the other G-guys trying to find him and somehow stumbling on the answers, and the way to Gaea themselves "How can you just stand there and not be worried about him? HOW? Heero could be lost laying in some cold damp street somewhere dying for all we know and you are all just standing there like it's no big deal!".

The last is the conclusion "Oh my god! HEERO!" she ran over to him and wrapped her arms around his neck in a great bid hug, "I was afraid that I would never see you again! I missed you so much…". {Nine votes here}

2. This one is completely original on my part and is an AU unlike any other, that I know of: Heero, a Bounty-hunter, gets lost in a forest while trying to track down the Infamous thief, Duo Maxwell, and finds himself having to camp inside of a cave with a peculiar stream water flowing within it, after testing it and finding it "safe" to drink, Heero has his fill of it, but, unknown to him, quenching his thirst comes at a high price. He wakes up the next morning in the body of a wolf and finds out that he can only be human if there is no sun OR moon out! And now he has either find a cure, learn how to survive as a being of the forests, or else. "Astor! Shepherd! …I hate it when they do this… You rotten dogs! Get back here!" "Well, well, look at what we have here boys… a pretty little lady lost and all alone. What do you say missy? Want old Joey and his friends to show you home?" the man snickered. "No! Let go of me! Somebody! Help, HELP!" {Seventeen votes here}

3. This one is very common, but I'm willing to try my hand at it: Heero loves Duo, but he also loves Relena; and the feelings are mutual from both of them. What is a guy to do? This would be my first attempt at a yoai fic if I decide to do it. "The thing is, should I even try to have something more then just friendship with either of them? I don't want one of them to think that they lost me to the other…so, what do I do?" {Four votes here}

4. Locked away in a mental institution isn't what she had envisioned what would have happened to Him, him being Heero Yuy, but now, after Relena as seen him there with her own eyes, can she really say that he doesn't belong there? "Damn it, Relena, listen to me! I'm not-- let go of me-- I'm not crazy I tell you, I'm not!" {Ten for this one}

5. Looking down at the Scrap-yard, she couldn't help but feel more then just a touch of jealousy towards the black-haired blue-eyed ex-oz soldier, Hilde, but also knowing that she wasn't what he needed in his life; she kept her heart out of it, and started working on putting both the Deathscythe pilot and the girl together; even if it killed her. This would be my first Duo-and-Hilde fic. "Ugh! How hard could it possibly be for this MORON to pull his head out of his ASS long enough to see that this chick digs him? I can't believe this!" {Three votes here}

6. What if Triton Bloom was alive, and he wasn't Trowa? What would No-name do, and think, if he met Cathy's real brother? Would he feel replaced and out-matched compared to the real thing? A Non-romance fic, this is just about family. "You want me to share a room with him?" "Yes, Trowa, I want you guys to share a room. Don't look at me like that! It won't be so bad!" two days later: "HELP! CATHY! Trowa's lost it! I think he's gonna kill me! HELP!" {Nine votes for this one already}

7. Relena's guards love to work over-time, they never complain, they think they get paid too much for what little they claim to do, they're selfless, gentle, sweet, kind, caring, lovable...Are. You. Nuts? Felina, Jasmine, JinChi, Keanu, and Fiora are anything BUT that and now that the "great and all mighty non-perfect Heero Yuy" is around, they find themselves fighting to keep the jobs that they hate, all while trying to hook the lovebirds up! "Remind me again how it was that we got sweet-talked into this mess?" "If I do recall, it was you who suggested this outlandish idea, Fiora Eleri." "…Thanks for reminding me, why oh why did I want to do this?" "Because you're a hopeless romantic at heart?" "It's either that or she's crazy…" they all looked at each other for a moment before saying, "Crazy." {Nineteen votes for this one}

8. Milliardo hated action figures; they reminded him too much of his little sister's dolls, so, why he got the twelve-inch-tall Zero-One Gundam Pilot: Heero Yuy, "G.I. Joe-like" action-figure for his tenth birthday, he never knew. His sister, who had to stay at home because of the chickenpox, was enthralled when he offered to let her play with "it" whenever she wanted to. But something very strange happens when, suddenly, nine years latter, he comes to life! "Relena! We're home darling!" "Relena… are you feeling better?" "Not really, was your party fun?" "It was okay, here, you can play with this when you're lonely while I'm away at school, okay?" "Really? Your brand new toy? Thank you Milliardo!" {Twenty-two votes for this one}

9. What if: Western (the sequel to What if: Myth) what happens when a "city slicker" schemes to buy out a whole town that stands on the world's biggest oil-well in history? The Keepers of Mystic return to the lands of the living again, of course! But, how are they going to be able to reunite when they can't even remember whom they were? And, most importantly, who is who in the times of sharpshooters, outlaws, and "red-skins"? "I don't know who you are and, quite frankly, I just don't care. But, if you think that you're gonna get away without buying a ticket to ride this here train, you got another thing comin'!" {Seven votes here}

10. It's been done a million times before, but never in a way like this: Gundam Wing Outtakes, these outtakes, unlike most others out there, are geared more toward the funny-serious style that I am known for. "BRIAN! Stop making goggle eyes!" in this 'series' I will be using the names of the American voice actors and be telling of their exploits all through the series as if they really were the Gundam Pilots and all of the other characters. "Piffff! Hahahaha! I'm sorry Cole, I couldn't help it!" My first attempt at pure humor. {Seven Votes for this}

11. What if Relena never met Heero on that beach? What if she never found out that he was a Gundam Pilot? I'll be going back through the series and rewriting it to find out. What will the outcome be? Was meeting Heero Yuy a major part of her becoming the woman she is today? I hope to try and find out. "What kind of person is he?" {Three votes here}

12. The Shreens are beings from a distant plant outside of the earth's solar system who are a race of all women who survive by attacking other inhabited planets and stealing all of their men for the use of breeding and for slaves. And now, with Heero presumed dead, it's up to Relena to stop them before it's too late. "Don't you like my pet, Queen Relena? He has the most beautiful eyes. Why don't you come closer, my pet, so that she can see you better hum…?" Shiva said as the large figure that sat by her chair moved into the light. Relena gasped, "Heero!". My first attempt at writing lemons but since FanFiction.net doesn't allow those anymore, I'll post the lemon parts to this fic (which aren't all THAT important to the plot) on my website (which is listed in my FF.net profile). {Nine votes for this one}

13. "In other news today: Relena Darlian was shot today at the peace-talks on L4, she was dead on the scene. Relena left behind her brother and sister-in-law and their two-year-old son, Zachary. Relena, if you can hear us up there, we will miss you…. And now for--" Heero turned off the TV and looked over at the cat that lay curled up on the sofa next to him; it was nursing it's single, lonely, kitten. "They didn't mention you, Indigo." the black cat ignored him, but her yellow and orange-striped kitten stopped her suckling to look up at him and mew before going back to her mother's teat. 'Something is very strange about that kitten…' Heero thought. Too bad that he didn't know how right he really was… 'Well that explains a lot.' the kitten thought as she continued to nurse, 'I died that day and then… I was, I was reborn then as, as Indigo's kitten… Poor Heero, I wish I could tell him…' {Nine votes here}

14. A request was made that I try to combine Story idea number Six and Seven together. I want to know if anyone else likes this idea. {Six votes here}
