-Chapter 2-
"Space, the final frontier. These are the voyages of the Gundam Pilots. Their continuing mission, to destroy those who threaten peace. To seek out the enemy and demolish their bases. To boldly go where no pilot has gone before!"
"Duo, you are truly the greatest moron that has ever lived," Quatre chimed as he watched the braided pilot take a bow, then proceed to pretend to play the trumpet while loudly humming the Star Trek: the Next Generation theme song. It didn't last long, for a wrench that WuFei was using collided with his head.
Duo cursed and grabbed the wrench from the floor, chunking it back at WuFei, who skillfully caught it without turning to look. Duo groaned and threw his hands up in the air. "Why do I even tr--ack! Hey!" He ducked as the same wrench came flying past his head, this time missing him, only to be caught by Quatre. He whirled around and glared at WuFei.
"What?" The Chinese pilot asked innocently. "I was tossing the wrench over to Quatre."
Glare.
He sighed, "Okay, I was aiming for your head, but Quatre really did need the wrench."
Duo rolled his eyes and turned to Quatre who had the wrench plucked out of his hands by Abdul.
"Guys, really, I can do this myself."
Abdul and the other 39 Maguanacs ignored him. "Please, allow us Master Quatre!"
Quatre sighed and jumped off of Neo-Sandrock's platform onto the plank and glanced over at Duo. "You're lucky no one want's to help you."
Duo laughed, "Hey, I'd gladly take the help. The faster I finish Neo-Deathscythe, the quicker I can be on time and get current holder of the Bitch of the Year award off my back." He glanced over at the Maguanacs who were currently swarming the Neo-Sandrock, hurriedly placing new circuiting in and connecting wiring. "But…not help with that much enthusiasm. Are those guys on something, or what?"
The blonde pilot shrugged and leaned against the railing. "Sometimes I wonder my friend, sometimes I seriously wonder."

Haruka sighed as she entered the bay, only to once again see no traces of her baka of a partner. Where the hell is that man? She stopped by his office on her way here, and his secretary said he'd been in already this morning, but had some business to take care of first. What business?! She couldn't believe that she actually thought that he was going to come down and get an early start for a change.
She growled an inhuman growl and threw her hands up into the air. Why did she even care!? It was his lose if Lady Une fired him for not doing his job. Let him fail! Besides, she had more important things to worry about than the likes of Duo Maxwell. Like… "Michiru."
"Who's Michiru?"
She whirled around on her heels to face her partner. "None of your concern!"
He blinked; there was something else besides anger in her voice. Pain? "Is something wrong?"
Now she blinked, a bit taken aback. She was expecting him to argue…not to care. But that was beside the point, she didn't care about his opinion or what he thought. "I'm fine, okay! Just drop it!"
Duo watched her as she stomped off towards the Leopards. She had been acting so weird this week, worse than the first two weeks he had been partnered with her. Something was eating at her, he just didn't know what. But, why should he be caring anyway? She didn't give a damn about his feelings, so all the same he shouldn't give a damn about hers! Ever since they were partnered, she's done nothing but make his life a hell even the Shinigami wanted to escape from. So what if she was hot… HOT!?
He mentally smacked himself. Where in the hell had THAT come from? He sighed and headed out the doors of the bay to go get some coffee. He probably received some brain damage early due to his head colliding with a wrench.
