Disclaimer: I don't own Gundam Wing or anything associated with it. This story was just written for the pleasure of my supposed fans. If you sue me even after reading this, then you will just get a bunch of old pocket lint. Enjoy!!
Spoilers: None that I can really think of...there may be one later on, but that won't be until MUCH later in the story.
Pairings: These will become apparent as the story goes on.
A/N: True to my odd nature, this story just came to me out of the blue. I've been writing it in a notebook since the beginning of this school year, and have finally gotten around to typing it up. Some time in the future of this story, there might be a death. I haven't actually thought ahead that far yet, so it may not happen. Also, there are a few people who I would like to dedicate this fic to. One is my good friend P.F. He's been there for me, and I just have to thank him. Thanks bro, you're a lifesaver in so many ways! Second, two all of my friends who have been by my side through my really long writers block spell. I love you guys!! And now onto my crazy and yet oddly fun story! Later all!

"Courage is the power to let go of the familiar." –Mary Bryant
Prologue: The war has finally ended between the Earth, the Colonies, and the Sank Kingdom. To ensure that is it does not have the chance to start up again, the Gundams and all information on them and their pilots has been destroyed.
The five brave teenage pilots have been thrown into a world that is not familiar to them. None of them have ever known a time when the war did not rule over them. Now, however, they are forced to live in a world of peace that is so unlike the one they are used to.
Heero Yuy, the former pilot of the Wing Zero Gundam, is keeping a low profile. None of the other pilots really know where he is, and he's happy to keep it that way. In the five months that they have lived in peace, Heero has only contacted the others once. In that one short message, he informed them that he had safely hidden the dangerous Zero System away where no one would find it.
Duo Maxwell, the former pilot of the Gundam Deathsythe, now leads a life he always dreamed of. He attends high school in a public place under his own name. After school and on the weekends, he works at his old cover job at the junkyard. Howard, the manager there, has just adopted him as his son.
Quatre Rebaba Winner, the former pilot of the Gundam Sandstorm, has taken his father's place at head of the family company. His twenty-nine sisters help him from time to time. He continues to play the flute, but not as much as he used to. He tries to keep in touch with the other four pilots, and gets responds from all of them except Heero.
Trowa Barton, the former pilot of the Gundam Heavyarms, is now performing in the circus full time. He lives in a trailer next to his surrogate sister, Catherine Bloom. He has three acts in the show. He performs as a clown, a lion tamer, and as the guy who throws knives. He is currently on Earth with his troop.
Chang Wufei, the former pilot of the Gundam Shenlong (or Nataku, if you prefer), is teaching swordsmanship to students at a fighting dojo. He has little patience, as we all know, so he only accepts students who do not get on his nerves. His top ten students have become guards for high authorities in the political arena.
Even thought these lives sound normal enough to you, they really aren't. How could they be with ex-Gundam pilots leading them?
For the past couple of months, Quatre has been planning a get together for the old team. Read on to see what happens as he gathers up the old gang.
