~~~~~~~
Disclaimer: No own. Broke. (How was that? Short and sweet.)
Thanks to those few who reviewed my fic:
Priya-chan – Thanks, I loved writing that driving scene as much as you liked to read it.
Sailormoonluvr – This chapter should quench your thirst for an update (at least for a while).
Please more reviews, everyone do your part! Now without further ado, here's Chapter 6 – Explanations.
"Cool it Wu-man!" Duo said. (Who else?) "I have a plan."
"Oh I can't wait to see this! I should hope it's better than the last few!"
"Of course," Duo grinned as he began searching his pockets for something. "Here take the wheel Trowa." He began pulling out hair ties, floor wax, plastic explosives, some bullets, a green checker piece, and who knows what else. The pile grew and grew.
"What the hell are you looking for Maxwell?"
"Aaha!"
"What?"
Duo continued ignoring Wufei completely, "Found it."
Duo held a small black thingy with a red button; it looked like a detonator. He flipped the cover on the button and pressed it.
"There, now we just have to wait," Duo said proudly taking the wheel back from Trowa.
"WHAT exactly did that DO?" asked Quatre.
"Oh yeah! I figured something might go wrong. I mean who can really predict what Heero's gonna do? Anyway, I told Sally, Dorothy, and Hildi (Wufei muttered something about weak onnas but Duo didn't hear him) what I was planning. I had them ready to help out if need be. Ya' see that button told them basically that something went wrong and we need our gundams."
"Wow, Duo you really planned ahead! Why didn't you tell me about your rescue plans?" Quatre asked excitedly.
Duo scratched his head, "Um well …"
"It wasn't a rescue plan! He wanted to get Yuy and Barton back for locking him up all those times," Wufei informed him.
"Figures," Trowa stated quietly.
Heero nodded, "So why were you helping Duo?"
"Damned Maxwell had Sally in on it and they tricked me in to it."
"Yeah, that was one of my better schemes," Duo said rubbing his hands together.
"Shut up! And just DRIVE," Wufei snapped.
Suddenly, before Duo could come up with a snide response, there was an explosion to their left. Duo stopped the car on the opposite side of the road.
"You baka keep driving! Now we're stationary targets."
"Wu-man, like I said before, cool it, I have this under control. We just need to stall till the girls get here. Now everybody out!"
With much grumbling (from Wufei) everyone cleared the car and followed Duo into the middle of the road. A group of mobile suits quickly surrounded them. One of the suits stepped forward, the cockpit opened, a men stepped out, and climbed to the ground. He straightened himself and stepped forward.
"Maxwell, Chang, what happened? How could two of my best officers allow themselves to be taken by this worthless gundam scum?" Preaosh asked.
"Well pal…" Duo began; he paused because Preaosh was sputtering, "Problem?"
"You will address me as Sir or Commander, Maxwell!"
"Yeah, umm…sure! Don't you see pal what's going on?" Duo gestured behind him to the other four pilots. "There are a total of five of us and five gundam pilots. Of the two you don't have in 'custody' one is described as an American boy approximately 16 with a three foot brunette braid," he held out his hair to demonstrate, "and the other," he continued while Preaosh gaped at him, "is a Chinese boy again 16ish," Duo finished gesturing at Wufei.
Preaosh was shocked and puzzled, "Meaning?"
"Meaning," Wufei cut in, "your two perfect officers standing here are the last two gundam pilots!"
Preaosh's jaw was on the floor, "But…but…"
"Let me clarify that's," Duo pointed at Mr. Perfect Soldier, "Heero Yuy – pilot 01, I'm Duo Maxwell – pilot 02, that's," pointing at the silent clown, "Trowa Barton – pilot 03, that's" gesturing toward the Q-man, "Quatre Rababa Winner – pilot 04, and this," putting his hand on Wu-wu's shoulder, "is Chang Wufei – pilot 05."
Preaosh's jaw hardened; he had been tricked. These five teens were the five pilots! Why hadn't he seen it? "You scum!"
"Wow, give him a prize! Johnny, tell him what he's won!" (AN: Bet you can guess who this is…if you can't it's Duo.)
"Why you…" Preaosh didn't get to finish his threat because just then three carrier planes landed nearby.

AN: How was that? I had the hardest time writing it. I had to go buy a jackhammer to get rid of my writer's block. The moron at the store didn't want to sell it to me, something about not selling dangerous machinery to minors, go figure. Anyway please review! I want two more before I continue. More reviews quicker chapter! Thanks a lot. Love, Hildi-chan ^_^v!
