YES!!! AN UPDATE!!! DAMNIT THIS TOOK ME HOW LONG!?!?!?!? *blinks* so long, I don't even remember *sighs* sorry for the long wait... really, I am... I think my other fics aren't faring against the slumps any better... anywho...

Disclaimer: *blinks* there are lucky people who DO own Gundam Wing and its characters... unfortunately, I'm not one of them *sighs*

Heero narrowed his eyes, his finger slowly applying pressure to the trigger. Relena continued to stare at him, terrified. Then she sqeezed her eyes shut. A smirk appeared on Heero's face, as he raised the gun, then...

BANG

Relena screamed, and fell.

WHACK

THUMP

"Miss Relena!!!" Pagen gasped.

Heero raised an eyebrow. Then he calmly dropped the gun, as he turned and walked off the overly pink premises. It was over.

For the time being.

~~~***~~~

The three Gundam pilots were seated in the kitchen, each doing their own thing. Wufei was reading the newspaper, finishing off his lunch. Quatre was writing letters to 14 of his sisters, since he wrote the others yesterday. Which did take a while, mind you. Trowa stole the comics from Wufei's newspaper, which he was reading at that moment, as he ate an apple.

And Duo? He was swimming peacefully in the pool. And he was checked on often, by the others, through the sliding glass door.

Then, out of the blue, Hilde leapt into the kitchen, brandishing one of Wufei's katanas. The pilots blinked.

"Hilde?" Quatre asked, slowly.

Wufei's eyes flashed, "is that mine!?" he demanded.

"YOU SHOULD KNOW TO HIDE YOUR WEAPONS BETTER, YOU OVER-SEXED ANIMAL!" Hilde yelled.

Wufei raised an eyebrow. Quatre blinked, then glanced at Wufei.

"What'd she call you?"

"An over-sexed animal..." Trowa answered, a small smile appearing on his face. Quatre furrowed his brow.

"Why would she call Wufei that?"

"I HAVE MY REASONS! AND YOU, WIPE THAT SMILE OFF YOUR FACE, YOU HORNY BEAST!!!" Hilde shouted, pointing the katana at Trowa.

Wufei and Trowa glanced at each other.

The Arabian gaped at Hilde. Then he turned at pilots 03 and 05... and burst out laughing. Wufei and Trowa blinked, in confusion, that Quatre was actually laughing.

"What's so funny?" they asked.

Quatre started to laugh harder. Then he fell back, out of his chair and hit the floor, his laughter still rising off the floor. His fellow pilots leaned over, to see him on the floor.

"Quatre?" Trowa asked, slowly.

"You feeling alright, Winner?" Wufei asked, dryly.

Hilde ignored Quatre, and continued to glare at Wufei and Trowa.

The blonde sat up, still grinning, his cheeks damp from his tears of mirth. "Nice petnames, you guys... what do you call Hilde?" he asked.

Three faces fell, as they stared at Quatre in disbelief.

"WHAT!?"

His grin widened, "I had no idea the three of you were together... jealousy is a terrible thing, isn't it?"

"WE'RE NOT TOGETHER!" the three of them snapped.

"ESPECIALLY WITH THE LIKES OF..." they went on, in unison.

"... HER!" Wufei and Trowa spat.

"... THEM!" Hilde said, at the exact same time. Then Duo stepped into the kitchen, wiping his arms dry. Quatre sighed, as the American's soakedness dripped all over the floor.

"Duo..." he started to scold.

"Duo!!!" Hilde gasped, as she threw the katana aside.

"AUGH!" the other pilots screamed, and ducked to avoid the very airbourne, not to mention, the very sharp blade.

Hilde ignored them and leapt at Duo, latching her arms around his slender waist, in a tight embrace.

Duo blinked, "yeah?"

Trowa and Wufei straightened up, watching Hilde as if she were crazy. Then they glanced at each other, and nodded.

"Hilde! Hands off!" they both ordered.

"Never!" Hilde spat, holding Duo tighter.

"Uhhh, Hilde, lack of air isn't healthy..." Duo said, slowly. He blinked, looking up, just in time to see Wufei lunge at him, knocking him off his feet.

"ACK!" Duo yelped.

Trowa grabbed Hilde's ankles, and held her back. "GO!" he barked. Wufei nodded, scooping up Duo, and dashed down out of the kitchen, down the hall, then up the stairs.

"Wu-chan!? What the hell!?" Duo asked, confused.

Wufei ignored him.

"YOU BEAST! HOW DARE YOU TAKE HIM TO YOUR CESSPOOL OF A BEDROOM!" Hilde shouted, as she chased after them. Duo blinked again, 'cesspool of a bedroom'? What was she talking about?

"TROWA!" Wufei shouted.

Trowa was chasing Hilde, "SHE KICKED ME IN THE HEAD, ALRIGHT!?" he snapped. "ONE CAN'T EXACTLY KEEP A GOOD GRIP WHEN THAT HAPPENS!"

"Call yourself a Gundam pilot..." Wufei grumbled.

"I heard that!" Trowa spat.

"Wu-chan... I think I'm missin something..." Duo said, slowly.

Wufei rolled his eyes, "what gives you that idea?" he asked, sarcastically.

"Well... you're carrying me... Hilde's chasing you, thinking you're taking me to your room... to do who knows what..."

Wufei's face reddened.

Duo smirked, "and she actually kicked Trowa, just to start chasing us, us being you... so, what's going on?" he asked.

"Something..." Wufei answered.

With a shrieking battlecry, and a last ditch attempt, Hilde launched herself at Wufei, tackling him from behind.

"ACK!" pilots 02 and 05 tumbled to the floor. Then Duo was grabbed, and thrown awkwardly over Hilde's shoulder in a very uncomfortable fireman's carry. Then she started to trot away.

Trowa walked up to Wufei, and pulled him to his feet. "So..."

"So..." Wufei echoed.

"Should we go after her...?" Trowa asked, looking rather deadpan.

Hilde was definitely trying to run. But it looked more like very slow scurrying. She wasn't necessarily getting anywhere. And Duo was was really weighing the small girl down.

"Uhhh, Hilde... I do know how to walk..." he said, slowly.

"No, love... I can do this..." Hilde grunted, "I'll protect you... from those... sex-crazed lunatics... whom... you call... friends... and... comrades..." the floor was slowly getting closer, as she continue trying to walk.

Duo blinked, "love...?" He glanced back at Trowa and Wufei, "guys...?"

"Yeah?" they asked, calmly striding up, behind them.

"What is she talking about?"

Trowa and Wufei managed a small smirk and a shrug.

"NO! GET AWAY, YOU BEASTS!!! Hilde shouted, trying to speed up, now practically crouching as she tried to 'run' from the two other pilots. Whom managed to easily keep up.

"Can you stop calling us that?" Wufei asked, with a scowl.

"It is kinda rude..." Trowa agreed.

"I'll protect... my koi..." Hilde wheezed. That was that, she collapsed fully on the floor. Duo still in her grasp. Duo blinked, he was now just laying on top of her. With a shrug, the braided boy got to his feet, and lifted up Hilde.

"What're you doing?" Trowa asked.

"Poor girl's lost it... she needs serious rest..." Duo replied, and started carrying her to her room. With a shrug, Trowa and Wufei followed.

"When did you become her koi, Duo?" Wufei asked, with a small smirk. Duo shrugged.

"It's news to me... maybe she landed on her head..." he mumbled. Then he frowned, slightly, "she used to be more normal than this... I wonder what made her change..."

Trowa and Wufei couldn't help but share a small grin.
