            As the phone rang again everyone sighed. Heero looked at the others, "Should we just let the machine get it?" he asked everyone, eyeing Relena, who had passed out from too much caffeine.

            Duo blinked, "No, let's have some fun." He said as the phone rang again. Jumping to his feet, he dashed to the phone, motioning for Hilde to do the same.

            Hilde sighed and got to her feet, making a mad dash for the other cordless phone that they had brought into the room earlier.

            "Hello?" Duo and Hilde answered the phone at the same time.

            "Hello…sir…ma'am?" the telemarketer sounded quite confused…but quickly pulled himself together. "I'm with--"

            He was interrupted by a high-pitched scream from Hilde.

            The telemarketer seemed to blink. "Um…are you alright, ma'am?" the telemarketer would've probably had a look of pure horror or worry on his face, if Hilde and Duo could see him.

            Hilde responded with another scream.

            Duo gave Hilde a look that said, "What's up with that?" and blinked at her.

            Hilde just stuck her tongue out at Duo and proceeded to scream, again.

            The telemarketer seemed to blink…then there was a click as the phone line went dead. Hilde smiled a victory smile. Duo sweatdropped. Heero ignored them all together and tended to the still-passed-out-Relena. Quatre sweatdropped a sweatdrop big enough to swallow the Earth or a Colony. Trowa just blinked and inched away from the obviously-insane-Hilde. Wufei sighed, rolled his eyes, and went back to sharpening his sword. Dorothy, having nothing better to do, launched herself at Quatre in a super-tackle-hug…causing Quatre to "meep" and fall over. Catherine just ignored them all and went to make some of her infamous-soup-that-no-one-is-ever-actually-seen-eating. Zechs and Noin were…ah…busy elsewhere. Sally hovered over Wufei. The doorbell suddenly ringing interrupted their various reactions.

            There was a rapid scampering for the door but….

            In the end, Wufei won the mad-scamper-dash-to-the-door by glaring a glare to nearly match one of Heero's Death Glares™. He sighed and opened the door….

            He froze in his spot and contorted his face in disgust at the woman standing in the doorway with energetic honey eyes and puke-brown (and seemingly fake) hair tied back in a ponytail. The obviously teenaged woman had square glasses, which made her eyes look like dots. She waved hard and nearly fell over in the process, which would actually be quite easy given she had a black skirt on which didn't stop going at her feet, which were clad in black stockings and even uglier strapped shoes. She was wearing a light pink long-sleeved sweater and carrying a black book in her arms. "HI!!!" she giggled, "How are you???? I'm Tehila Landesman!!" she smiled and shifted her weight from one foot to the other insanely fast. [1]

            Wufei snorted at her and wished he had brought his sword with him to the door…this…woman…if she could really be called that…looked like killing her would be a great justice. "What do you want?" he asked shortly and gruffly.

            "Do you want to buy this book??" she thrust the book out towards him and grinned. "No wait! I'll give it to you for free! You look like a very honorable man, and I'm sure--" the chatter of the mindless git was cut off when WuFei death-glared her. "Sir, why are you looking at me like that? Have I done anything wrong? That's very not nice," she said. The "poor" incessantly talking idiot... [2]

            Wufei's forehead-vein started to budge again. "Onna [3]…I do not want your damned book…what the hell's your problem, anyway?" his vein budged with each word.

            Landesman looked like she was about to cry. "Why are you so mean to me?" she sniffed pathetically.

            Wufei grumbled, "'Cause you look like a pathetic git?" he asked in a mocking tone, and then shut the door in the pathetic woman's face.

            Duo bounded over to Wufei, the others hanging back behind him. "Who was that?" he asked as he fiddled with his mostly-brown-but-still-blue-ish hair.

            Wufei eyed Duo. "Some stupid onna." He said as he walked past Duo and the others so he could get back to his sword sharpening.

            As WuFei sharpened his sword, he heard the blubbering of the stupid idiot outside as she sobbed relentlessly. "Please, someone make her stop! It's hurting my ears!" Quatre exclaimed, covering his ears. [4]

            Just then, Relena came out of her state of caffeine-induced-unconsciousness and heard the blubbering idiot outside. Her eye twitched…repeatedly. She got to her feet and stomped off to take care of the "menace"…her eye twitching the whole way.

            The sounds of Relena threatening the Landesman person with death if she didn't shut up rang into the house for hours before the blubbering finally stopped and they were left in relative peace again….

            [1]: Holly-chan wrote this paragraph. She really hates Ms. Landesman, her ex-teacher, and we both thought it would be amusing for Landy to show up at the GW Gang's door.

            [2]: Holly-chan wrote this paragraph too.

            [3]: I do believe that "onna" means "woman".

            [4]: Holly-chan wrote this, as well.
