Hey peeps. I'm back with the third chapter and I still have pitiful reviews. I feel so unloved (;_;). Anyhoo, I would love to get requests. Please send requests. Requests for a sequel are welcome. Can't you guys see it? Please review and make requests!!!!!!! Be nice to a sweetie like me. I'm a new writer.
Duo: yeah!! Be nice to Lilac. If it wasn't for her you would not have this cool fic to read. I never knew Hee-man could be so "emotional". (^_~)
Heero: Omae o kuroso. (Pulls out gun)
Wufei: The baka's right. You are weak in this fic. At least with Body Swapped you're strong even if you're in a girls body. Get a hold of yourself and start acting like a man.
Lilac: Ignore them my love. If you want the girl, go for her. Never listen to a sexist kusoyaru like Wufei. Or a senseless bakayarou like Duo. (*o*) Doesn't that remind you of a chick. It's soooo cute.
Wufei: That ugly thing? Get a hold of yourself onna!!
Lilac: Is Wuffie upset? Don't worry, Lilac will take good care of you.
Duo, Heero, Wufei: Huh? * give Lilac weird looks *
Lilac: Oh begone with you!! Let me finish this fic. Ssssshhhhooooooo!!!!!!!!!!! Scat!!!!!!!!
Duo, Heero, Wufei (Disappear into thin air.)
A few details I forgot. All G-boys are 25. Serena is 24. Hotaru, 20, Haruka 27, Michiru 26, Ami, Minako and Rei 25. Relena is 25 and she's some teen idol who needed bodyguards so the G-boys came. She wants Heero. She's doing Mamoru and Mamoru wants Serena. Sailor Senshi do not exist, I think. Still not sure. If there is a sequel I'll give more details.
Disclaimer: No own anything except plot. Oh and the creature.

Part ThreeLast time…
Just then a terrified shriek pierced through the air putting everyone on the alert. Dropping whatever they were holding they all ran I the direction of the scream. What met their eyes when they got to the scene ha them all skidding to a halt. Before them was a girl lying on the ground and looking down at her was a…
Now…
"How the hell did that get here!!!!" Duo exclaimed, making no move to help the fallen girl. Instead he pointed in horrified fascination as a big cat, a black jaguar with silver stripes on it's head, prepared to eat her. That was what it looked like to him.
"Kali!!! Come here!!!" commanded Serena.
The boys looked at her in surprise. That dangerous animal was hers? Such a Tenshi should not have a pet that dangerous. It could turn on her. They warily eyed the jaguar as it approached.
"Kali, I thought I left you in the apartment. What are you doing here? The explanation had better be a good one." Serena said sternly, forgetting that there were others present. She had been so scared when she had heard the scream.
'I'm sorry Sere but being cooped up in the apartment all day is no fun. Can't I stay with you guys? Pretty please.' Replied Kali telepathically.
'If you really wanted to come then why didn't you take your human form?' queried Serena.
'I was in my human form but I sensed danger so I changed. Then I heard a scream and when I got here she was already on the ground. You guys arrived while I was sniffing her.' Explained Kali.
'Okay. Then you can stay but it'll have to be like that. I wonder what attacked her?' Serena added almost vaguely.
'A hunter. She's been with one like us and his scent is still on her. That's why the hunter thought she was one of us.' Kali provided.
(boy, this fic seems to have a life of it's own. If things continue at this rate, I may have to change the title of this fic)
'There's a hunter around?!!' Serena exclaimed. 'Kuso!!! Hey guys, we've got to be on our guard now. There's a hunter in town.' Serena informed the others.
'Hai' they all acknowledged, careful not to get the guys suspicious. Unlike Serena, they had not forgotten their presence.
The guys stood there watching Serena, waiting for her to say something. All they saw was a girl kneeling eye level with a jaguar with a slight frown marring her otherwise perfect features. It seemed as if a silent communication was passing between the two. Ofcourse that was impossible.
Heero knew exactly what she was doing. He could to, being only a hybrid. The catch of that was he could only change on a full moon. Then if he found a pure-blooded life-mate, he could change whenever he wanted. He thought he had found that in Serena until…
He stopped the thought from completing itself. The memory would only cause him pain. He still felt the betrayal deep within, eating away at him constantly. Everyone left him; his, mother, his father, his friends, her. At least he had new comrades but he had made sure not to get too attached to them.
He also knew what had Serena frowning. He never liked to see her frown. It was somehow a crime for her to frown. He could smell the hunter's scent as well as the scent of who she had been with. He knew both. The latter was one he would never forget. He doubted that Serena recognised it though. She would be more concerned with the hunter's scent.
Quatre cleared his throat to bring everyone's attention to him. The muttering girls glared at him before masking their expressions. Serena got up and beckoned to them.
"C'mon guys, help me wake her up." She ordered.
"Why should we? That pet of yours probably harmed her. We should let you get arrested for this." Wufei condemned. " Baka onna."
"A konoyaru like you knows nothing about what just happened so shut the hell up!!!!!!" Rei exploded in rage.
Although Serena seemed oblivious to whom the first scent clinging mainly to the girl's lower regions belonged to, they were not. Just thinking about the bastard and all the pain he had caused them angered her and Wufei was the one to get the brunt of her anger. Not that he did not deserve it.
Ami, Haruka and Hotaru growled at him warningly. He immediately took heed and shut up.
"Wow!! How did you guys do that!! You gortta teach me. Anything to get Wu-man here off my back." Duo said excitedly. (Hyper, ain't he?)
"Maxwell!!!!!!! How many times must I tell you my name is WUFEI!!!!! W-U-F-E-I!" Wufei exploded. He pulled out his katana, which he never went anywhere without and ran after Duo. Unfortunately for him, Duo had taken refuge behind Rei. (Smart Duo)
There was no way Wufei would challenge Rei. Not now anyway. She was intimidating for a female. And he was too honourable to hit a girl. (Yeah right) He put away his katana and promised Duo death to his braid before the day was out.
While all this drama was taking place the poor girl (let's call her Dorothy) was groggily trying to stand. Serena was at her side assisting her pathetic attempts. Soon she was on her feet and able to tell the true story. Which was not much from her point of view.
"This guy came out of nowhere and attacked me. He was so swift that I could not defend myself, which I'm pretty good at . Then I felt something hit my head and everything went black. Next thing I know, I'm listening to shouting." Dorothy said.
"Did you see his face?" inquired Trowa.
"Yeah but the strangest thing is that I can't remember what he looked like. It's as if there's something blocking my memory." Dorothy puzzled.
"Hhhn," Trowa said thoughtfully. (wonder if he knows something?)
Dorothy glanced at her watch and gasped in shock.
"Oh damn! I've gotta go or I'll be late for work."
Without so much as a thank you or goodbye, she ran off leaving some very puzzled people behind.
"Okay, now who's up for food?" Duo asked, his attention on his empty stomach. Everyone sweatdropped and gave him an incredulous stare, except Heero and Trowa. He glared and Trowa shook his head.
Somehow, the guys had found themselves pairing up with the girls during the picnic. Not that they minded. It was nice to have a pretty girl by your side once in a while. The only two unhappy people were Heero and Wufei. ( surely I needn't say who they're paired with) Heero was trying his best to ignore her while he was getting pissed off by her flirting with the others, especially Duo. Wasn't Hotaru enough for him?
Serena was putting on a show strictly for Heero's benefit. She was hurting so much inside. He had not trusted her and that had gravely wounded her on the inside. Now that wound was getting bigger than she thought it could. She was still trying to figure out what had really gone wrong. She had told him she loved him, she had done everything she could to help him yet he had not placed his trust in her. She was thankful that they had never bonded and become life-mates in the way of their kind. It would have killed her when he left.
Unknown to the estranged lovers, their friends were plotting their reunion. Quatre, although empathic, was as tough as nail when he needed to be. He turned to Minako and whispered into her ear. Minako then forwarded the message to Ami who sent it to Rei and so it went until the only ones who were unaware were Serena and Heero.
Duo was in total agreement. He wanted his best bud to feel better and to have the love he had never had when he was younger. Serena was perfect for him. She could make him human again. Trowa was also in agreement but he wondered about Heero's reaction if he found them out. The only person with objections was Wufei. He complained that if Yui had wanted to be with her then he would have gotten with her already. There was no way he would interfere but glares from Rei made him hastily change his mind.
Now, the reason for all the taping and whispering going unnoticed was that the two were so engrossed in ignoring each other and pretending that everything was okay. Well, they were in for a surprise. Today fate was smiling down at them and they had a chance which they may never get again. Their friends were going to make sure that they made the most of it and be happy.
"Let's play a game,' suggested Duo with mischievous grin after stuffing himself full of food.
"Alright!!!!!" exclaimed Minako.
"Fine," agreed the others.
"What game shall we play?" asked Ami.
"Uh…" Duo said, scratching his head as he tried to think.
"How about hide and seek?" Hotaru proposed.
"Yeah!! Why not," Duo said, thrilled at the chance to play one of his favourite games from as a kid.
The others seemed to give it lots of thought while Heero nor Usagi cared about the game they played. As long as it limited contact between them. After a while the others slowly agreed, one after the other. It looked like Haruka only agreed because Michiru had. Usagi immediately knew what they were up to. A little making out during hide and seek was fun, particularly due to the risk of being caught.
Heero and Usagi saw nothing suspicious in the decision. In fact it seemed like a way to hide from each other's presence. To gather strength. They agreed without hesitation.
Well let us see how wrong they were.
How was that? This whole document consists of six pages and I'm now dead tired. Expect the last chapter next week. And for those of you wondering about Kali, well she's taking a nap but she was told. As for what they are, I still have to give them a name. Any suggestions readers?
I'm so happy right now. I've passed the 2000 word mark. The whole document, from my Ans on top to the end surpasses 2000 words. Be pleases. Be happy. At least there's more to read.
Thank you to my few reviewers. As I've said constantly, I'm open to requests. Enough requests = action = fic for readers to read. Lovely equation. "Learn it, Live it, Love it." Think you can guess the movie this line came from? It's a cool movie that I love watching. Especially towards the end. If you do guess correctly, you'll get a prize. Good luck. As you can see, I don't think you can guess the movie.
Anyhoo, I gots to go upload. Till next time.
Ja ne.
