A/n: sorry for no disclaimer on the last two. As you will see these are stories i came up with during my spare time at school. Not much but either way I'm not going to expand.

Discalimer: Don't own the G-boys, Arislan, Daryoon, OR Jowy Atredies (?).

"Hey, Alex wake up. Come on dinner's ready." Alex grumbled and turned away. "grrr. Wake up you lazy bones you haven't changed one bit. If you don't get up I'll feed you to the wendigos!!!" She felt a jump on her bed and was jolted awake.

"Arislan! What is it? Is there something wrong?" She asked the little silver headed boy.

"Yeah, dinner's ready. Mother wants you down there." The little five year old boy said from where he was in the covers.

"(YAWN, Stretch) Okay I'll be right down." Alex said. The little boy left and she changed into some unwrinkled clothes.

She went downstairs and into the dining room. She stopped at the door. Her father turned to her.

"Good Evening Alex. Please sit down." Her father said. He went to the head of the table and motioned for her to sit on his left. She sat down obediently. "I would like you to say hello to our guests, daughter."

"Huh? Oh! Hello. Welcome to Roughnight manor." She said to their surprise guests. It had been a wise choice when she choose her normal outfit instead of the bathrobe. She did however feel a little immodest.

"These are the five main scientist from Leonhart Interprise. They are here to meet the new head. I am Ethan Roughnight. This is my daughter and head of Leonhart. We're pleased to make your acquantence." Her father said.

The man with the large hook nose and a small scar spoke up, "I am Professor G. This here is my charge Duo Maxwell." Duo smiled and waved hi to her. She smiled back.

One with a fake nose spoke next, "I am Doktor S. This is my charge Trowa Barton." Trowa said hello.

The normalest (is there such a word?) looking man there spoke next, "I'm Professor or Doctor M. This is my charge Quatre Raberba Winner." Quatre smiled at her. She smiled back.

A bald man that looked younger than all of the scientists spoke, "I am Master O. This is my pupil, Chang Wufei" Wufei nodded at all of them.

The last one to speak was the man with a machina arm. It looked more like a mechanical hook. "Good evening Mr. Roughnight, young Alex, I am Doctor J. This is my pupil, Heero Yuy. We've heard much about you from our boys. We hope they were no inconvenience to you at school." He said and sat back down.
She smiled. She was about to speak when she heard a creak. She looked up to see her mother coming down with Arislan following close behind. Her mother came down and sat to her fathers right. Her baby brother sat next to her.

"Alright now that we're all here. We can get down to business." Her mother said, smiling. Alex felt just the slightest bit of distain. She cared about her step-mother, but also disliked her intensely. She treated her like a slave. 'No wonder Grandpa gave me his business. Mother wouldn't have let me keep it.' She thought.
The maids served them and they ate somewhat peacefully. They could feel the tension between mother and daughter. Mother asked daughter to pass everything to her. Daughter refused and passed it over to her father to give to the mother.

After dinner, they went into the sitting room. Alex sat down on one of the reclining chairs. Arislan went over and she picked him up and sat him down on her lap.

"Alright. Now is there anything that we need to know?" the mother asked.

"Well... Alex needs to know when she needs to come in and that we'll be sending her reports every now and then. But as we well know Ethan will be her representative in the meetings. We also need to tell you that we don't do anything unless the head has approved. It was also written in the will that every partnership or paper must be signed by Alex." Doctor J. said. Ethan was nodding and her step-mom had a smile pasted on her face. Alex hugged Arislan closer to her. It was goinng to be bad for her when they leave.

"Alex your squeezing me to tightly." Arislan breathed out.

"huh. Sorry, lan." She said realizing she had been squeezing to tight.

"Alex, can you remember Momma? When I try to see her all I see is that wicked face. I'm scared that it'll find us." Arislan said shivering.

She sighed. She remembered all too clearly when their mother died. It had been right before her grandpa had been killed. A crazy man with a horrible mask had taken them by surprise out in the fields. He had taken their mother and them. Her father had done everything to get them back. He failed in the fact that they killed her. The man only smiled as their mothers blood flowed over his hands and their small bodies. She had gone mad and that was when she realized she had the magik. The man had disappeared before she could kill him. He promised that he would be back for them.

She hugged her baby brother, "Of course I remember Momma. But wait till bed time, Lan. I'll tell you as many stories as you want then." She said

"Okay." He said and fell asleep. She looked up to see the five guys watching her. She smiled at them.

"I didn't know you had guardian's." She said. They shrugged.

"All of our parents are to busy to keep us with them. So we were sent to some of their "friends" so we could learn from them." Duo said rolling his eyes. They nodded. They were all the same.

"Is that your real mom?" Quatre asked, jealously.

She gave him a sad smile, "No," she said, "My mother died before we came over here." She looked down at the small body on her lap. She smiled.

They looked away. The adults were talking quietly among themselves. "Did her grandfather give you the enterprise?" Duo asked.

She looked at the gold digger. She shook her head, "No, My real mother's father gave it to me, but as I am the child she thinks she'll be able to take it from me. That's why her smile is pasted on her face." They kept watching the woman.

"I don't even know why my father married her. I know it wasn't out of love." She said quietly. They just stared at her.

"Well, boys, it's time to go. Thank you Ethan. We hope to see you at the labs this weekend, Alex.' Doctor J. said. Alex nodded.

She stood and followed them out to the front door. She watched them decend the stairs to the waiting two limos. She would have waved had she not had Arislan in her arms.. She turned and saw her mother's mask disappear and turned into a mad scowling woman.

"You don't deserve any of what your getting, girl. I'll see to it that your father takes it from you." She said. When she past her step-mother she clearly heard, "Freak"

Alex walked past the woman and went to her room. She put her little brother on the bed and went into the restroom to changed into her sleeping clothes. She went back into the room to find Arislan sitting up in bed wiping his eyes sleepily. She smiled and went over. She opened her arms and the little flung his arms around her.

"What's wrong, Fox? You feel sad. What did step-mother tell you?" Arislan said into her sleeping shirt.
"Nothing, kit. You know her. All she is is spiteful." She held her brother clothes to her breathing in his child scent.

"Will you tell me about mom now?" he asked. She smiled and nodded. she told the tale of how mother and father had meet. How Arislan took his first steps and how mother would always bake them cookies. She heard the little boy laugh, sigh, and yawn. She felt him sag and fall asleep. She laid him out andd fell asleep next to him.
The alarm rang and she woke up. She jumped out of bed and into the shower. She came out of the shower and ghed

"Come on, kit. Wake up. You need to get ready for school." The little boy grumbled and turned away. She sighed picked him up and took him over to the shower. She turned it on and striped him. she dumped him in and saw him wake up.

"I'll go and get you some clothes." She said and walked out. She went into the room next door and began to look for his school clothes. She pulled them out and walked out of the room. She walked into her mother.
"You will be taking your brother to school and you will pick him up." She said and walked off. She looked at her step-mother. 'How in hell am I going to pick my brother up. He get's out at one will I get out at four.' She sighed.

"Here are your clothes, Lan." She handed them into the bath and felt a small hand snatch them away from her. She leaned on the wall next to the door. She saw it open and the little boy walke d out. She smiled and began to fix his uniform.

"Mother said that I was to drop you off and pick you up." She said with a smile, standing up.

"You will!" he exclaimed, taking her hand and following her down stairs. "I'll be able to see you at your school." He said excitedly.

"Yep." She said smiling and going to the dining room.

They sat down and ate breakfast. She heard the doorbell ring. She went over to it and opened it. There stood the chauffer. "The car is waiting lady." He said

"We'll be right there." She said and went to find her little brother. He was hugging his dad who was in his apron.

"Come on, Kit. It's time to go." She said. He let go of Ethan and ran to the front door. Ethan smiled at her. He held out his hand and gave her her lunch box.

She took the lunch box, "Thanks dad," she said hugging him. "Don't let your mother get to you. I will never take anything that rightfully belongs to you or your brother." She hugged him tighter. "She's always on my back about things."

"I know. I know. But I have a feeling that that won't last much longer. Just have a good good day. And here's this." He said handing her a piece of paper.

"What's this?" She asked him.

"It'll help you get out of school to get your brother. Your just gonna have to fend for yourself after that." He said.

She nodded and left. She came back. "Hey dad!" He turned and looked at her. "I'm gonna need a laptop for school." She told him. He nodded and shooed her out. She went to her room and picked up her stuff. She went down to the car.

"Here you are madam.: The chauffer said. He handed her the keys. "Huh?" She looked confused. "Your father said that I was to let you take the newest saturn model car to school. These are the keys to the car." He said and opened the driver's door for her. She got in turned the car on and got out of there.
Arislan opened the door to get out. "So you really are going to pick me up?"

"Yes Kit don't worry about it. I'll be here by the time that you get out. Here's some money just in case you want to buy anything." She handed him three bills. "Now take care and have a good day. Be nice okay." She told him. He nodded closed the door and took off. She smiled and left.

She got there just in time. She walked over to Trowa. "Good Morning." She told him. He looked up from his book and smiled. He had on the thinniest framed glasses. She didn't stare like most people. "What book is it?" She asked.

"The Tale of Two Cities, by Charles Dickens." He said looking at the cover. She gave him a sympathetic look and sat down. She pulled out her homework and turned it in. Class began and everything was normal. She went to the next period like nothing and found that Michael wasn't there. She breathed a sigh of relief and sat down. Normal normal normal. She went to her next class as if nothing. In the middle of class the teacher received a [hone call.

He looked up, "Alex, can you please come over here." She got up and went over to him. " The office just called said you were to go there and then go pick up your brother," he looked at her. "I hope you can make it back in time for school." He said and dismissed her.

She went back to the table. Heero looked at her. "I'll meet you guys at A-lunch. I'll be right back." She told him picking up her books. He nodded and she left.

She made the pitstop by the office and went on her way to her brother's school. She got there a minute before they got out. She got out of the car and leaned on it. She heard the bell ring and saw her little brother come out running with a little black haired boy behind him.

"She is gonna pick me up and I'll show you!" he yelled to the little boy. He looked up to see her smiling and looking at him. "FOX!!" he cried out excitedly and ran into her arms. She picked him up and hugged him to her.

"How's my little Lan, my kit?" He just giggled and told her he was fine. "And who's your friend?" She asked putting him back down and looking at the boy in front of them.

"His name is Daryoon, but I call him Darun. He's a two grades higher than me." Arislan said. She watched the little boy slightly bow. "You were right. I have to go now my moms calling me." The boy went running to a beautiful raven haired woman. He waved bye and they took off.

They also left. She went to the attendance office to get the small boy a guest pass and went straight to A-lunch. She walked in and went straight to the guys. "hey guys. I would like you to meet my kid brother, Arislan." She said pulling the little boy out in front of her. "He never did introduce himself formallyto you." She said.

The little boy looked up at them and smiled, "Nice to meet all of you." He said. The guys looked at him and smiled. They sat down to lunch and ate. The little boy was quieter than they had suspected.

The bell rang and she with the guys to the library. She set her books on the table and watched as the little boy ran around looking at the books.
