Warning: AU!! Duo is a shapeshifter. Most of the info I used in the story is based on another books, by Dara Joy. Also language, and long times between updates

Disclaimers: I don't own them, and I never will. Nor do I own the dara joy book. I am just using the Gundam characters to help me with creative writing. I am also broke so PLEASE DON'T SUE ME!! Anime and college are sucking up all my money!

Note: Sorry about the problem with the previous posts. I was trying to fix the problems and it turned out I made it worst. I hope y'all aren't too mad at me and will continue to read. I also want to thank everyone who let me know something was wrong, cause if not for them I wouldn't have known.

Dear Diary: Oops
Chapter Thirteen

//Dear Diary://

//Well, I guess you learn new things every day, but I didn't know that this was even possible. I mean every time I changed before no one every heard what I was thinking and was dying to express. What makes Trowa so special? Is he the only one who can hear me, or can everyone?//

Trowa's eyes widened at the sound of Duo's voice and he whipped his head around to try and see where the voice was coming from. "Duo where are you? And what do you mean you are not human, right now?"

//As much as I like this boy he can be quite dense. I mean is it really such a hard concept to grasp? I mean "Duo" disappears and "Cat" appears. Seems pretty simple to me. I can't believe that I have to spell all this out for him. This is NOT going to be fun!//

{You see the cat in front of you?}

"Yeah, but what does that have to do with anything?" Trowa asked.

{Say hello to my other form}

"What do you mean 'other form'?"

{**Sigh** I guess I will have to start at the beginning. Sit down; this is going to take a while.}

"What do you mean 'other form'?" Trowa asked again with panic starting in rise in his voice.

{I AM THE CAT, DAMNIT!}

"No, I have to be going crazy! I hear Duo's voice telling me he is a cat. This is just not possible." Trowa mumbled to himself while Cat looked at him. "What are you looking at you stupid cat?"

{Hey! I am not stupid! I am what people call a Familiar, which means that I am a human that can transform into a cat.} At Trowa's wide mouth Duo continued, {Look, I know that this is kinda hard to swallow, but it is the truth. If you will calm down a bit I will tell you everything I know.}

"Calm down? I am standing in the middle of nowhere talking to a fellow pilot, who happens to be a cat and you want me to CALM DOWN?"

A thought finally pierced through Trowa's confused mind. "So you could speak the entire time and didn't tell me, uh, anyone that you were okay?" Trowa demanded, anger masking his discomfort over sharing how he felt about Duo with Cat.

//I thought that Trowa would take this hard, but I didn't think he would get mad and hurt about it. This is hard on me too. Why does Trowa think that this is a picnic for me? I told him I would tell him everything I know, but that isn't much its self. It wasn't like I misled him on purpose. I just learned I could send thoughts.//

{Look Trowa, like most of us, I didn't know my parents, and not to sound like a whiner, but that was really hard finding out I was different from everyone else in galaxy. I mean there are other Familiars out there, but they are spread far and wide. Personally, I have never met another one. So everything I've learned about who I am is learned through what I can find out on my own via legends and the Internet.}

"What does that have to do with anything? And why haven't you answered my question?" Trowa asked.

{If you will let me finish, I will explain.} At Trowa's nod, Duo continued, {I didn't learn that I could send my thoughts until just now. Trust me, I was just as shocked as you. I still have no clue what the extent of this ability is. At this point I don't know if there is something special about you that gives you the ability hear me or if other people can also.}

Composing himself, Trowa asked, "So, why are you still in this form? Why haven't you transformed back yet?"

If animals could blush, Duo would have been beet red as he answered Trowa. {To tell you the truth, I'm stuck.}

Confused, Trowa asked, "What do you mean stuck?"

{Well, I kinda forgot how to transform back.} At Trowa's stunned expression, Duo clarified, {Y'see, I have only transformed a few times in my life and most of those times were at the Maxwell Orphanage. Father Maxwell and Sister Helen were the only ones who ever knew before now. The few times I did transform, just being there with them helped me find the energy source that performs the transformation. However, the three of us decided that it would be best if I didn't transform since we knew so little about what Familiars are capable of when they are in feline form. }

{Trust me, I have tried to find that energy source. I really don't know what is different between then and now, other than Father Maxwell and Sister Helen not being here. Maybe I am missing something. I have no clue. I wish I knew more, but I don't.}

Trowa thought for a minute before replying, "Well if the Internet and legends are your primary sources of information, Heero and Wufei might be able to find out what it takes for you to tap into that energy source. Maybe they can find the link that you are missing."
