Authors note: Terribly sorry. But, I am leaving for camp today and will be
unable to update until September. I LOVE all of my reviewers and I
sincerely hope to see you all again when the story rises in the fall. After
that will come the second story of the series, Perfect Soldier: Mind
control (angst lovers prepare) and the third story, and last, yet unnamed.
Below is a teaser for Chapter 5!!

Warrior of Forest
Chapter 5: Lessons Commence! *TEASER ONLY*
"HEERO!!" Duo's singsong voice called out to the Wing pilot sleeping on the couch he had sat on last night, "Time to go!"
Heero sat bolt upright, eyes wide and alert. He scanned the area for threats, heart pounding in his chest, body singing with battle readiness.
Duo, alarmed at the action, raced over and placed a hand on Heero's tense shoulder, "Easy, buddy, it's just me, Duo."
However, at the touch Heero leapt up and landed on the floor in a deep crouch, eyes wide with alarm. Then, just as suddenly, he saw Duo and heard the comforting tone. Relaxing, he stood to face the Deathscythe pilot.
"Ohayo gozaimasu, Duo." Heero said, effectively masking his embarrassment.
'I can't believe I reacted like that!' Heero berated himself beneath his calm exterior, 'I haven't reacted like that in so long! Damn them for this reflex!' Heero took a deep breath in an effort to calm down, 'It's alright, they can't possible know what happened back then..and I don't wish to say. Even if I could tell them.'
"Mornin' Heero." Duo replied. Though troubled by the reaction his awakening had gotten, he chose to let it be. At least until he had Heero's trust and he could talk to him.

After breakfast, the boys ran out to the car. The Preventers had given the car to them and it was large enough to accommodate them all, as well as a few extra. The car was bright red and had three rows of seats in the back, one of which could be lowered to expand the trunk. The windows were tinted and, upon Duo's insistence, a stereo with 6 CD turning had been installed.
The boys also had a red convertible that Duo had bought on a whim. It was jet black with black leather seats. The license plate read: Shinigami. There was also Trowa's red motorcycle and WuFei's blue one. Both bikes were for any of the boys to use freely, so long as they didn't crash it, except for a very good reason.
But for today, the boys piled into the large car, or rather SUV. Just before they got in, Duo turned to Heero, pointed at the car and said: "car". Heero looked at him like he had three heads and six braids.
Duo tried a different track. Pointing at himself he said: "Duo." Pointing at Heero, he said, "Heero." Pointing back to the car, it was: "Car". It was like a lightbulb came on in Heero's head.
"C.ar." He repeated in a thick Japanese accent, "Car, car."
"Yeah, good Heero." Duo said happily, and got in.
